This is the second autism related drowning that’s happened in JUST our community, and there was no alarm for either of them. That’s 2, too many, and that doesn’t even touch the numbers nationwide. We need to do better & be better prepared for future accidents! Proper alerts could've had people searching the proper area way faster! Not everyone got one, and most had to learn about it thru Facebook posts.  If phones shake when a child is abducted. Phone should shake when a special needs autism child should ever wander. They need their own category! 

It’s important that we hold elections for our HOA board. Current board is self appointed and not chosen by the community. The issue with this , the board is supposed to represent the community and community needs. It’s not happening. We are coming off a year of over spending by 45,000 with zero explanation or accountability. The treasurer at the time failed their job however is now the President due to the board not having elections and self appointing . We need a quorum, meaning 40 homeowners to sign the petition to request an election so WE have a say and elect the individual WE want to serve on the board. 

Ms. Ziegler's conduct has been a continuous distraction from the business of the Board  — the education of our students, and the Board's stated commitment of "Every student every day."  At the May 7, 2024 School Board meeting she proposed a resolution defying constitutional officer responsibilities by refusing to uphold changes to Title IX. She claims she was protecting "our girls" while openly discriminating against certain students. This makes our students unsafe.  Ms. Ziegler has damaged countless students' lives and is an embarrassment to the Sarasota County School District.  She needs to resign or be removed. Join us in this effort. 

Hundreds of students have recently been arrested for participating in protests against the Israeli government’s war in Gaza at dozens of universities across the country. But blue lights and zip ties aren’t making students on any campus safer, and sending in armed troops will only increase the tensions — and the potential for tragedy. We don’t have to guess what that looks like because we already know: At Kent State on May 4, 1970, 28 National Guard soldiers fired into a crowd of thousands protesting the Vietnam War. They killed four students and wounded nine others. Those protests weren’t so different from the ones we are seeing today. From Columbia to the University of Texas-Austin to the University of California, Berkeley, and back again, young people across the country are exercising their constitutionally protected rights to free speech and assembly to protest horrific violence in Gaza. President Biden has an opportunity to show the kind of leadership necessary to meet this moment of crisis. As the protests spread, Republican governors could act unilaterally to bring more military presence to college campuses across the country. That’s why your voice is urgently needed today: Will you help us send the president a clear and crucial reminder that dissent is not a crime, and protest is patriotic?

Whistleblowers have reported that detainees are being strapped to beds, or restrained in inhumane positions for so long that they are subject to botched amputations. And this isn’t the first time reports of this kind of abuse have surfaced. In April, an Israeli doctor reported that there were routine amputations at Sde Teiman—sometimes leading to health complications and even death—from detainees being held too long in handcuffs and restraints. The doctor himself called the conditions “deplorable” and said that it violated “medical ethics and the law.” CNN on May 11 released a comprehensive investigative report, “Strapped down, blindfolded, held in diapers: Israeli whistleblowers detail abuse of Palestinians in shadowy detention center,” detailing the whistleblowers’ accounts and other reports or torture coming out of Israel detention centers.The journalist detailed heartbreaking, terrifying stories of abuse and humiliation.  Reports of Palestinians being forced to stand in prolonged stress positions, sometimes even zip tied to fences. Physical beatings. Botched medical procedures without anesthesia. At night, dogs are let loose to run over detainees, barking and terrifying them. Palestinians are subject to prolonged and even constant blindfolding over the course of weeks and months, a form of psychological torture. Dr. Mohammad al-Ran, a Palestinian detainee who was released after 44 days, was asked by a fellow detainee if Dr. al-Ran could find his wife and kids and deliver a message. He said, “Tell them that it is better for them to be martyrs. It is better for them to die than to be captured and held here.”  The leaked photos and stories hark back to Abu Ghraib, where, in 2004, leaked photos revealed abhorrent abuse at a U.S. military base in Iraq with smiling U.S. soldiers torturing detainees, some of whom were never even charged with a crime. Already comparisons are being made, calling the Sde Teiman detention center "Israel’s 'Abu Ghraib.'" We can’t sit back and allow history to repeat itself as human rights violations and torture transpire in real time. We must act now.  Sign and share the petition.

Signing this petition signals the absence of a legally recognized executor for the Steve Miller-James Miller Estate and highlights our collective responsibility in its stewardship. The role of executor is one of responsibility, not privilege, demanding the individual to manage estate finances faithfully for the benefit of all members. Without a current legal executor, this duty lies with each of us. Should any resident be prepared to undertake the legal and financial responsibilities to officially become the estate’s executor through probate court, they will have our full support and gratitude. This petition, therefore, is not just a call for change but an invitation to engage actively in the governance of our community, ensuring the protection of our interests and the restoration of transparency. Upon garnering enough signatures: - James “Carter” Miller must cease his activities as the self-appointed executor immediately. - He must relinquish all estate documentation, including financial records, accounting logs, and deeds, to Minister of Miller Church and Representative of the Steven Miller-James Miller Estate. - An independent audit will be commissioned to review all past financial transactions under his management. Supporting this petition means advocating for the return of control over estate assets to its rightful heirs and ensuring full transparency moving forward. Once James “Carter” Miller has turned over all necessary documentation, we will make all findings available to all recognized heirs promptly. This step is crucial in restoring integrity to the Steve Miller-James Miller Estate and honoring our grandfather’s legacy. By participating you commit to reestablishing responsible governance and transparency within the Steve Miller-James Miller Estate, ensuring its prosperity and the welfare of all its beneficiaries. This petition offers a pathway to resolve the current challenges faced by the Steve Miller-James Miller Estate, encouraging unity and active participation among all.

The New York Times has reported that the home of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito displayed a symbol that shows solidarity with the effort to overturn the 2020 election ... while he was hearing a case about that effort! [https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/16/us/justice-alito-upside-down-flag.html] The upside-down flag—a "stop the steal" image—is just the latest evidence that the partisan Republicans on the court cannot impartially hear or rule on cases related to the efforts to overturn the election, the January 6 insurrection, or Trump's claims of immunity. The revelation of this sign of partisanship and partiality on Alito's home is the latest in the trend of right-wing Supreme Court justices embracing conflicts of interest with relation to Trump's election cases. Justice Clarence Thomas's wife, Ginni Thomas, a leading conservative activist, took action to try to overturn the election results—yet Thomas did not disclose this while ruling on cases related to the insurrection and has continued to hear cases such as Trump's appeal for immunity. Because Chief Justice John Roberts has allowed these conflicts to go unchecked, the Supreme Court is at its lowest public approval ever—with the public losing trust in the institution's integrity and seeing it as the tool of a partisan right-wing agenda that it is. That's why it shouldn't surprise anyone that these partisan actors are overturning precedent and taking groundless cases to pursue an agenda that has torn up abortion rights, undone environmental regulations, and enriched and empowered corporations and billionaires. The only way to begin to restore any trust in this court—and to ensure any semblance of a fair hearing on Trump's baseless immunity claims—is for Alito and Thomas to recuse, or be removed by John Roberts. And the Senate Judiciary Committee—which has the duty to be a check on the Supreme Court—must investigate these conflicts immediately and take action to hold conflicted, corrupt justices accountable, including impeachment if necessary.

The dental office front desk is the hub of activity, the nerve center where patient care meets administrative expertise. It's where the first impressions are made, where anxious patients are put at ease, and where the entire experience is expertly choreographed. The front office personnel are the maestros of this intricate ballet, skillfully juggling multiple tasks, managing the flow of patients, and ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish. They are the guardians of the practice's reputation, the keepers of sensitive patient information, and the unsung heroes who keep the office running smoothly. Without their exceptional organizational skills, warm communication, and attention to detail, the dental office would be a chaotic and disjointed environment, unable to provide the high level of care that patients expect and deserve.  They are responsible for many things such as:  1. First Impressions Matter: The front office team is responsible for creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making patients feel at ease, and setting the tone for their entire experience. 2. Patient Communication: Front office personnel are the primary point of contact for patients, handling inquiries, concerns, and appointments. Effective communication is crucial for building trust and ensuring patient satisfaction. 3. Scheduling and Organization: The front office team manages schedules, coordinates appointments, and ensures a smooth flow of patients. This requires exceptional organizational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to multitask. 4. Financial Management: Front office personnel handle billing, insurance claims, and payment processing, requiring accuracy, attention to detail, and knowledge of dental billing procedures. 5. Data Management: The front office team is responsible for maintaining accurate patient records, updating databases, and ensuring compliance with privacy regulations. 6. Team Coordination: Front office personnel work closely with dentists, hygienists, and assistants to ensure seamless transitions between appointments and procedures. 7. Patient Retention: A friendly, efficient, and caring front office team helps build patient loyalty, encouraging repeat business and positive referrals. 8. Online Presence: Front office personnel often manage online reviews, social media, and patient engagement, influencing the dental office's online reputation. 9. Time Management: The front office team juggles multiple tasks, prioritizes urgent matters, and minimizes delays, ensuring a productive and efficient work environment. 10. Adaptability: Front office personnel must be flexible and able to adapt to changing situations, such as last-minute cancellations or unexpected emergencies. By recognizing the vital role front office personnel play, dental offices can invest in their training, support, and development, leading to improved patient satisfaction, increased efficiency, and a thriving practice. In conclusion, the front office personnel are the backbone of the dental office, and it's time we recognize their immense value. By empowering them with the training, resources, and appreciation they deserve, we can transform the patient experience, boost staff morale, and drive practice growth. Let's break free from the misconception that front office personnel are just "receptionists" and instead, acknowledge them as the highly skilled, patient-centric professionals they are. By doing so, we'll create a dental office where patients feel welcomed, valued, and cared for, and where staff are motivated, inspired, and proud to work. The future of dental care depends on it – let's give our front office personnel the recognition and support they deserve, and watch our practices thrive as a result!
