10 questions Sebastian, area residents must ask about city's ... (TCPalm)

The annexation binge concerned residents throughout Indian River County, including those who fled growth-ravaged South Florida and worried about the quality of ...

10: Finally, and especially if the city is committed to “smart growth,” how do city leaders respond to concerns by the nonprofit Strong Towns that annexations are a bad long-term investment for cities? How can the future become more predictable so the city and county can best prepare? Thus, the big question: How many units and new people should the city’s 25,703 people ( as of 2021 Census estimates) expect the annexed property to have? Will land similar to what the county built at Spoonbill Marsh be provided to treat disposable concentrate, a byproduct of water production? 5: Indian River County is obliged to provide Sebastian with water and sewer. I hope, no matter where you live in the county, you attend to learn more.

Sebastian Inlet sprouts hope for Florida manatees and other Indian ... (Florida Today)

SEBASTIAN INLET — Here, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Indian River Lagoon, hope, in the form of new tufts of sea grass, is sprouting all around.

Slivers of new seagrass drift from there to Sebastian, or vise versa, taking root in between. The underwater scene here along the shoals that fan out from Sebastian Inlet once showed football field-sized, lush grass beds now in some spots resembles a moonscape, with smatterings of seagrass sprouts. But some have criticized whether the water quality is good enough yet for the seagrasses to survive. At one such site, the Loxahatchee River, a tributary for the lagoon, 60,000 eelgrass plants were recently transplanted. But it's one of the few invasive species with a positive streak. Atkins, the firm Deis works for, inventories those prop scars, plugs them in so grass can grow back, and transplants channel grasses, using pitchforks and shovels. "It is very small, and it is not very dense. "We are going to lose manatees here because that's not enough food," Deis said matter of factly. Because of the ocean water surging through the inlet, marine life stands a much greater chance of rebounding here than elsewhere in the 156-mile-long lagoon. The algae can smother most of the seagrass just as it finally sprouts new roots. Others fear not enough is being done to keep pesticides and other pollutants from killing the progress. Last year, small islands in the lagoon in Brevard became mass manatee graves.

Four-star scoring machine Sebastian Mack thinking about visits (247Sports)

One of the top scorers in the class of 2023, 6-foot-3 combo guard Sebastian Mack from Las Vegas (Nev.) Durango is having a big spring and eyeing potential ...

I also like the system that they run and that they let the players play in. Oklahoma: "I like their overall program and how they run situations up there. I feel like that has improved and that helps keep me on the court more. Like their guard that just declared for the Draft, Bryce McGowens, I liked how they let him run and how they let him showcase himself." It is close to home back where my roots are so I'm going to probably take a visit there." I think we are overall a good team.

Why Pink Is Hollywood's Favorite Post-Pandemic Power Hue (Hollywood Reporter)

Hot pink (worn by everyone from Harry Styles and Sebastian Stan to Glenn Close) supplants millennial pink as the shade of 2022.

The streetwear website Highsnobiety recently suggested this brighter new hue is a fiery riposte to millennial pink’s soothing serenity, dubbing it “Hot Pink Fury.” “Our obsession with pink will continue to build,” she says. “Although I still love certain shades of pink, I personally have just used it a lot as a designer and was bored of it,” Howell admits. “It evokes a big emotional response in people and has quite a range,” she says. The color, it appears, has bifurcated, moving toward two extremes (like the United States as a whole). To one side there is garish neon pink and on the other a pastel putty tint, even more muted than the millennial version. “It can be deeply romantic and also act as a neutral to soften spaces.” “After spending two years trapped in our houses, there seems to be a craving for color. Clare Coulson, a color strategist at the trend forecasting firm WGSN, says the shade represented a feeling of openness and positivity that, it can be hard to remember, permeated the pre-Trump years when we were still in the blush (pun intended) of social media. “Millennials loved it for its Instagrammability and the openness this hue had to gender diversity.” Freyja agrees: “I suspect, for the first time in over a century, pink was able to take on genderless qualities, and there was something very novel and fresh about that.” Previously a man wearing pink could raise eyebrows in certain circles (though rapper Cam’ron certainly created a sensation and a trend when he rocked his Killa Pink look back in 2002). “Millennial pink definitely defined an era,” says Anjela Freyja, a creative director and design historian who often pontificates about colors and their broad meanings to her 83,000 TikTok followers. “I remember exclaiming, ‘We need to make the Eiffel Tower!’ ” the designer explained recently in an email. It’s an “ironic pink,” she wrote for The Cut at the time.

Dollars, loyalty and greed: What happens when stars fall out with ... (The Sydney Morning Herald)

Celebrities and their managers. It's a business relationship ruled by a mix of dollars, loyalty, greed and complicated emotions.

That’s why I’m rich.” For well over a decade, everywhere Guy Sebastian went, his manager Titus Day was sure to follow. That meant a lot to me. Look at me, I’m miserable. I always try to lead with appreciation and understanding. They know my character and my truth.
