up with a criminal record. It has been said that tough love and punishment will help reduce our youth’s behavior, but I disagree. There is proof that if we open programs and give troubled children personal therapy their behavior changes. I think my community needs to tend to the youth’s bad behavior emotionally and physically more to help reduce the chances of them becoming criminals as adults. All it takes is attention, therapy, and giving them something else to focus on besides running in the streets. My community needs to open more programs and recreation centers for our youth. The problem is the children have nothing to do after school, on the weekends, and school breaks, which leads them to starting chaos between others. In Tampa Bay, FL the Tampa Bay Times explained how city hall opened a Stay and Play program in recreation centers for the summer. The goal was to reduce the outbreak of gun related violence after eighteen homicides occurred in the first half of the year. Opening this program at recreation centers for the youth resulted in fifth teen thousand two hundred and thirty-one kids attending, and no violence occurring that whole time. Mayor Bob Buckhorn quoted himself “Good numbers,” because they have seen children involving themselves, and so city hall has decided to extend the program for the school year. My community does not have such programs like these in our area, but I think it is time that we open one up. We must show our youth that we are here to help…

My visit to the Tampa Museum of Art took place on the 4th of February 2017. The Tampa Museum of Art is located at the heart of downtown Tampa and is home to some of the most widely acclaimed creative works of art in the United States. I had never been to a museum prior to my visit. My visit to the Tampa museum was very informative and a rare occasion to learn about the beauty of art. I was pretty anxious from the beginning because I didn’t know where to start, but after speaking with a security…

The river walk along the downtown Tampa waterfront has been around since the mid-1970s. The park is expected to span 1,460 feet of water on the eastern side of the Hillsborough River, running underneath the Kennedy Boulevard Bridge which is linked to the MacDill Park, Curtis Hixon and Waterfront Park, providing pedestrians and cyclists 1.8 miles of Riverwalk. In 2003, renewed emphasis was placed on accelerating the development of the waterfront to enhance the image of Tampa as a beautiful and…

or others. But years of neglect and $100 million in budget cuts have turned them into treacherous warehouses were violence is out of control and patients can’t get the care they need.” (Anton et al). As described in this quote, Florida’s mental hospitals have turned into dangerous places for employees and patients. New levels of violence and major budget cuts have turned hospitals upside down, and thanks to these muckrakers it is now exposed to the public. Muckraking does still exist as…

This semester in my Humanities class my professor assigned a paper on an analysis of a piece of artwork. The artwork could be at pretty much any museum you wanted to go to in the greater Tampa Bay area. I chose to go the the Tampa museum of art in downtown Tampa. Even though i had been there multiple times this time was very different. As soon as i walked in i was immediately drawn to a single painting and never left that painting until it was time for me to leave. This painting that i was so…

How to Do Sunsets in Tampa One of the awesome things about living on Florida’s Gulf Coast is the free show staged nightly by Mother Nature. The sun dipping behind saltwater and white-sand beaches, or over impressive city architecture, is enough to spur you want to move here, and we at ICI Homes can help if you check out our work at three master-planned communities in the Tampa Bay area — Asturia, Bexley and FishHawk Ranch. But, if you’d occasionally like to enjoy a Gulf Coast sunset…

I visited the Tampa museum of art and discovered some very interesting and beautiful works of art. My favorite painting I came across was Lupins and Foxgloves on Indian Creek, Painted by Carolyn Brady in 1988. It was placed on the museum as a gift from the Bank of Tampa, in memory of Judith R Blanchard. It’s a watercolor painting on just plain paper. Depicting both land and sea shows how artists perceive and portray the natural world around them. From romantic depictions of the American…

As we get through OTA's and begin yet another preseason in Tampa Bay, we believe we have the right guys in place on defense. With the acquisitions of Vinny Curry, J.P.P., Mitch Unrein, and Beau Allen added to the defensive line, it adds the depth we have not had in a long time! The line will consist of Gerald McCoy and Vita Vea mainly at the DT position, with Unrein and Allen likely as reserves, but those two, just might end up playing a bigger role than anyone thinks! At the DE spots, we have…
