Each note brought sighs of reverie, each lovelorn lyric oohs and ahhs and applause. All Barbra Streisand had to do was smile and sing, and the sold-out crowd at Tampa’s Amalie Arena was a big bowl of buttah in her palms. “I’ve never been here, never been to Tampa-St. Pete,” Babs admitted Wednesday night, as if the nearly 12,000 fans in attendance didn’t know. This was Stresiand’s first local concert after a half century as a stage and screen icon, and given her notorious aversion to touring, the..>> view originalShould New Tampa ever talk about seceding from city? Candidates ...
TAMPA — The question of whether New Tampa should ever consider seceding from the rest of the city to get more of its taxes back animated a debate Wednesday night in the City Council runoff between Jim Davison and Luis Viera. Maybe, said Davison, though he didn't say he's for the idea. At a minimum, he said, New Tampa should not give up its leverage by saying it would never think about pulling out of the city. No, said Viera, who called the idea adversarial, nonproductive and a non-starter. The q..>> view originalAmy Scherzer's Diary: Weekly Wrap-Up of the Tampa Social Scene

Google Earth Timelapse has been around since 2013, but the tool that allows anyone to see how any place on Earth has changed over the decades got a massive update this week.

That includes fresh images from two new satellites, Landsat 8 and Sentinel-2, as well as more images from the past that were part of the Landsat Global Archive.

TAMPA The front porch's wood planks seem ready to collapse under the weight of a footstep. The yellow wood siding is peeling and faded. A teetering white picket fence looks like a slight breeze could finish it off. Built in 1842, the bungalow at 3210 E Eighth Ave. is the oldest home in the three-county area of Hillsborough, Pinellas and Pasco. But despite the shaky first impression, the structure is stable, co-owner Darryl Bethune said. He is selling the building for $45,000.

TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) – Tampa Police Department investigators need the public’s help identifying the person who drove a car through an Ybor City bar, hitting someone. While the Bad Monkey bar is back up and running, the damage is still evident. Thus far, police haven’t caught the culprit. Cameras rolled earlier this month as a fight broke out near the Bad Monkey. Punches were thrown, and the car then plowed over a man, crashing into the bar. The Bad Monkey sustained $15,000 worth of damage,..>> view originalTampa Bay Buccaneers: Why Mike Evans is the NFL's best receiver
TAMPA — The best receiver in the NFL today is Mike Evans. Tomorrow? He could be better. "I just know what Mike is capable of, and he's just scratching the surface," Bucs receivers coach Todd Monken said. Declaring Evans, 23, the best receiver in pro football is subjective. You can argue the point until the red-faced guy on the other end of the sports bar shouts you down, but nobody really knows. Evans' numbers would merit that distinction for him. He is tied for the league lead with 10 touchdown..>> view original
