The surrogate
It begins with a woman who yearns for a baby and another who is willing and able to give her one. You can imagine the motives of the prospective parents. But what about the woman willing to carry a baby, give birth and then walk away?
Friday Night Rewind It doesn't matter which team you cheer for. We've got video previews of every high school football program in Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco and Hernando County.
When you open your St. Petersburg Times next Monday you'll find an innovative new addition — a daily news and advertising section that helps you make good decisions about how to spend your money and lets you have some fun, too.
Goodbye, Classifieds. Hello, BayLink.
BayLink is the place to shop, to relax, to while away some time at your leisure. You will be able to look for a new or used car, browse job listings, dream about a new house or find that piano or tool bench you've been looking for. Each day the section will have brief, entertaining, useful features about working, home life, cars, you name it.
You will also find some of the St. Petersburg Times' most popular features: Dear Abby, movie listings, two crossword puzzles each day, the Jumble, Cryptoquote, Carolyn Hax and much more. BayLink will also have all the comics we have now, plus four new ones, giving the Times far more than its competition. (Read more about comics Tuesday in Floridian.)
There is nothing else like BayLink in American newspapers.
We will want to know what you think of the section. You can e-mail us at readerfeedback@tampabay.com.

I am fine with all sections except BayLink. What a hodge podge!

If you want to save money, stop shading the backgrounds of your columns. It's easier to read black print on a white background. If you must shade, then shade the headline and bracket the rest. The savings in ink may offset the Baylink fiasco.

My comment on the new BayLink section is: "What a trashy looking section". I don't want to have to peruse all the classifieds to find the columns & articles that were in the "Floridian". Floridian was my favorite section of the paper.

You have taken a well compartmentalized, well written newspaper and turned it into an unrecognizable hobo stew. What were you thinking? If it does not revert back to its former self, I plan to cancel my subscription.

The new BayLink section is awful. I hate having to root through the classifieds to find the comics, crossword puzzles, and other features formerly in the Floridian section. I'm seriously considering subscribing to the Tampa Tribune!

this Baylink section is a disaster. basically it seems you are simply embedding the comics, advice, etc in the classifieds. very hard to read and aesthetically unappealing.
