Hanrahan maintains balance between work and home

Leaning forward in a cushioned chair in City Hall, Mayor Pegeen Hanrahan listened intently as a constituent laid out her concerns, the same focus she gave county officials discussing next year's budget an hour later.

Deep safeties unit heads into season with different expectations than last year

Eight months ago, safeties coach Chuck Heater sat in his chair on a raised platform at UF's preseason Media Day and tried to explain why the 2008 season would be different, how a secondary that gave up 373 yards passing to Michigan in the 2008 Capital One Bowl could possibly be any better after entering fall two-a-days with three scholarship players at safety.

Congrats to Karma Cream owners

In response to the Alligator's Tuesday article "Ice cream shop opens today, will offer 11 vegan flavors," I would like to congratulate Payal Patel and Kyle Fick on the opening of the Karma Cream ice cream shop. By staying true to their ethical beliefs and featuring nearly a dozen delicious dairy-free choices, they are doing a great service to the community by offering diners healthier, more eco-friendly options. In addition to helping students keep off that pesky "freshman 15," by picking the vegan Peach Cobbler, Dreamsicle or any of the other dairy-free dishes, consumers won't be contributing to a lifetime of misery for a cow on a dairy farm.
