  • Tampa Bay Times Pulitzer Prize Winning Advocacy of Fluoridation
    The Tampa Bay Times won its ninth Pulitzer Prize on Monday for a series of editorials last year by Tim Nickens and Daniel Ruth after the Pinellas County Commission moved to stop putting fluoride in the drinking water, affecting the dental health of 700,000 people in the county. As Nickens and Ruth wrote in the last of the 10 editorials submitted for the Pulitzer Prize in Editorial Writing, "It took nearly 14 months, an election and the clarion voice of Pinellas County voters to persuade county commissioners to correct a serious error in judgment." And the newly reconstituted commission quickly moved to vote to restore fluoride to the water system. Here is the Pulitzer nominating letter from Times Editor Neil Brown, with links to the 10 editorials. To the judges: In October 2011, the Pinellas County Commission turned back the clock. The commission, pressured by antifluoride zealots and tea party conservatives, abruptly voted to stop adding fluoride to the drinking water. The commissioners ignored established science and the public health, and in January 2012 the Pinellas water system suddenly became one of the nation’s largest without fluoridated water. More than 700,000 residents no longer benefited from what the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention calls one of the nation’s greatest health care advances. The Tampa Bay Times editorial board went on mission to correct this travesty. With original reporting and persuasive arguments, Tim Nickens and Dan Ruth educated readers and delivered a clarion call for action on behalf of those who need fluoridated water the most: the poor families and the children of Pinellas County.

  • Cynthia Barnett Let It Rain…
    Cynthia Barnett Let It Rain…Or Not Award-winning journalist and author Cynthia Barnett has reported on water and climate worldwide, from emerging water strife in the eastern U.S. to epic drought in California and the rainiest place on Earth in Cherrapunji, India. Ms. Barnett has written for the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Atlantic, Salon, Discover, Orion, Ensia, and many other publications. She is the author of three books on water, including her newest, Rain: A Natural and Cultural History, and a popular speaker from commencements to keynotes and university lecture series. Her latest topic is an engaging natural and cultural tour of RAIN, from its key roles in civilization, religion, and art; to the peculiar history of the world’s first raincoat; to the rain obsessions of our “Founding Forecaster,” Thomas Jefferson – all building to the uncharted rains of climate change. Too much and not enough, rain is a shared experience, and one of the ways climate change can become a conversation rather than a confrontation. Rain—where it is and where it isn’t—in one of the most critical issues of our time. The New Yorker’s Elizabeth Kolbert calls Rain “a lovely, lyrical, deeply informative book.” Famed American historian Douglas Brinkley describes it as “a landmark work of environmental history … Rain is a triumph.” Ms. Barnett’s first book, Mirage, won the gold medal for best nonfiction in the Florida Book Awards and was named by The St. Petersburg Times as one of the top 10 books that every Floridian should read.

    Mirage: Florida and the Vanishing Water of the Eastern U.S. by Cynthia Barnett http://www.press.umich.edu/titleDetailDesc.do?id=187043 The University of Michigan Press, 2007 1 History & Myth a florida. Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de León gave the penin- sula its modern name when he stepped ashore on the Atlantic coast in 1513. It was Easter season, known in Spanish as the pascua ›orida. You have no doubt heard that when he discovered Florida, Ponce de León was searching for the Fountain of Youth. One sip from the magi- cal fountain would cure any ailment, keep a man young. To this day, schoolchildren learn the story in fourth grade. But it is not true. The best historical sources, including the highly detailed charter given to him by the king of Spain, offer no evidence that Ponce de León ever gave thought to a Fountain of Youth, much less that he sailed to what is now Florida to look for it. The truth is that Ponce de León carried a contract to settle the lands he discovered and to enslave native people. Such is myth. If it is more appealing than the real story, and if it endures long enough, it can over- come truth. Florida has always drawn powerful mythmakers, so bold in their visions that their made-up stories have often come true.

  • Summer Essays
    Summer essays Jeremy Grantham | GMO | 31 July 2014 1. BUBBLES AGAIN: SETTING UP FOR A DEAL FRENZY Despite a shocking 2.9% setback in first quarter GDP (quarterly decline at annualised rate), the extent of which was forecast by no one, and despite a substantial decline in NIPA corporate earnings, the market has climbed slowly but steadily in recent months. Market volatility has declined to very low levels despite these setbacks and despite Middle Eastern problems. (The negative January Rule this year has, for that matter, also been ineffective so far.) So, all is apparently well, as we have arrived within three months of the dreaded (by bears) Presidential third year. Accordingly, my recent forecast of a fully-fledged bubble, our definition of which requires at least 2250 on the S&P, remains in effect. What is worse for us value-driven bears, a further bullish argument has struck me recently concerning the probabilities of a large increase in financial deals. Don’t tell me there are already a lot of deals. I am talking about a veritable explosion, to levels never seen before. These are my reasons. First, when compared to other deal frenzies, the real cost of debt this cycle is lower. Second, profit margins are, despite the first quarter, still at very high levels and are widely expected to stay there. Not a bad combination for a deal maker, but it is the third reason that influences my thinking most: the economy, despite its being in year six of an economic recovery, still looks in many ways like quite a young economy.

    PRESS RELEASE For immediate release Contact: Chelle Koster Walton [email protected] 239-699-4754 Caption: Cynthia Barnett [Attached: Book cover; Water/Ways, Florida Humanities, and Smithsonian logos] Smithsonian Water/Ways exhibit speaker series presents ‘Blue Revolution’ In conjunction with the visiting Smithsonian Water/Ways exhibit at the “Ding” Darling Visitor & Education Center Oct. 28 through Dec. 7, 2016, “Ding” Darling Wildlife Society-Friends of the Refuge (DDWS) will be hosting a free “Soak-It-In Speaker Series” on select Fridays at 1 p.m. The second in the series features award-winning environmental journalist Cynthia Barnett, who will present “Blue Revolution: A Water Ethic for Florida and America” on Friday, Nov. 4 at 1 p.m. Barnett’s presentation is based on her book Blue Revolution: Unmaking America’s Water Crisis, which The Boston Globe named as one of the top 10 science books of 2011. The Globe describes the author as "part journalist, part mom, part historian, and part optimist." The Los Angeles Times writes that she "takes us back to the origins of our water in much the same way, with much the same vividness and compassion as Michael Pollan led us from our kitchens to potato fields and feed lots of modern agribusiness." Barnett has written for the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Wall Street Journal, the Atlantic, Discover magazine, and a number of other publications. Her numerous journalism awards include a national Sigma Delta Chi prize for investigative magazine reporting and eight Green Eyeshades, which recognize outstanding journalism in 11 southeastern states. The author teaches environmental journalism and nature and adventure writing at the University of Florida's College of Journalism and Communications in Gainesville, where she lives with her husband and children.
