Organizers revealed Monday that Boca Raton’s Center for Arts and Innovation — a planned arts-oriented destination featuring many attractions — is millions of dollars behind in fundraising, drawing criticism from city officials. The center, which is intended to be an extensive performing arts center at the north end of Mizner Park, was supposed to have raised more than $50 million by now, in order to be on track, according to city documents. But during a public meeting on Monday afternoon, CEO Andrea Virgin told City Council members that about $32 million has been raised in “documented...

U.S. Sen Rick Scott, leading his opponent but hovering below 50% in most polls, campaigned with two of his Republican colleagues as he works to close the deal with early voting underway in Florida. U.S. Sens. Marco Rubio of Florida and Tom Cotton of Arkansas vouched for Scott’s conservative bona fides, and invoked the name of Florida’s most prominent Republican, former President Donald Trump, to sell Scott’s reelection. Without a Republican majority including Scott, it would be impossible for Trump to implement his policies if he’s reelected president, they said. “We know Donald Trump is...

Dave Hyde: ‘Same old story’ in Dolphins’ sloppy loss to Indy — can Tua save this season?

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on October 21, 2024. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Dolphins, NFL, Sports.

INDIANAPOLIS — This time, they dropped two fumbles like tombstones on their Sunday. “It wasn’t acceptable,” said fullback Alec Ingold, who had one of the fumbles. This time, their top player, Tyreek Hill, had no passes thrown his way until late in the game and no words afterward beyond hurried ones as he fled the locker room: “Y’all don’t want me to talk today.” This time, their 10-0 lead against mediocre Indianapolis crumbled under the weight of mistakes and lost opportunities into a 16-10 loss. “Same old story, we let one slip away we should have won,” defensive tackle Calais Campbell...

Chris Perkins: Reality for Dolphins is get the ball to Tyreek, or kiss playoffs goodbye

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on October 21, 2024. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Dolphins, NFL, Sports.

Let me say this right away: The Miami Dolphins’ offensive problems, as I’ve told you before, are bigger than quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. The offensive problems are systemic and institutional. Having said that, it’s tough to know where to start when analyzing the Dolphins’ feckless 16-10 loss at Indianapolis. Do you start with the fact that the Dolphins are mysteriously unable to get the ball to wide receiver Tyreek Hill, and because of that, predictably, their one-dimensional offense is stuck in the mud? Do you start with the fact that the Dolphins erroneously and ridiculously thought they...

There now are four days off before the Heat open the franchise’s 37th season when they take on the Orlando Magic on Wednesday night at Kaseya Center. “So far,” coach Erik Spoelstra said, “things have been progressing in the right direction.” Utilizing mostly a mix of draft picks...
