“It was a strange thing about people–they could look the same but be different. He had been one thing, low, dirty, but because of something in himself–something she couldn’t define, a memory perhaps, an ideal he might have forgotten and then remembered–he had changed into somebody else, no longer what he had been. She should have recognized it before. What he did to me he did wrong, she thought, but since he has changed in his heart he owes me nothing.”
–From Bernard Malamud’s “The Assistant” (1957).

Flagler Beach Is Open For Business: A1A Construction Update:
FlaglerLive is providing weekly updates to year-long construction on and near State Road A1A in Flagler Beach as the Florida Department of Transportation rebuilds a 1.5-mile segment from South 9th Street to South 22nd Street, and builds a sea wall at the north end of town.

In Florida and in State Government:
Note: Some proceedings below can be followed live on the Florida Channel. Most legislative proceedings can be followed through the Senate or House websites.
CONSTITUTION PANEL TARGETED: The House Civil Justice Subcommittee will take up a proposal (HJR 301), filed by Rep. Brad Drake, R-Eucheeanna, that seeks to repeal the state Constitution Revision Commission. The commission meets every 20 years to recommend proposed constitutional amendments. But it became highly controversial last year as it put seven measures on the November 2018 ballot. That controversy stemmed, in part, from the commission “bundling” unrelated issues into single constitutional amendments. If lawmakers ultimately approve Drake’s proposal, it would go before voters in 2020 because it would involve changing the Constitution. (Thursday, 9 a.m., 404 House Office Building, the Capitol.)
SCHOOL HARDENING, MENTAL HEALTH ON TABLE: The House PreK-12 Appropriations Subcommittee will receive presentations about school-hardening funds and mental-health awareness and assistance training. (Thursday, 9 a.m., Reed Hall, House Office Building, the Capitol.)
UCF TRUSTEES MEET: The University of Central Florida Board of Trustees will meet. (Thursday, 8:30 a.m., University of Central Florida, Fairwinds Alumni Center, Orlando.)
DEEPWATER HORIZON ‘SUMMIT’ HELD: The Florida Department of Environmental Protection will hold a Deepwater Horizon Restoration summit to discuss restoration efforts and priorities related to Deepwater Horizon funding. (Thursday, 9 a.m. Central time, Emerald Coast Convention Center, 1250 Miracle Strip Parkway S.E., Fort Walton Beach.)
SUPREME COURT RELEASES OPINIONS: The Florida Supreme Court is expected to issue its weekly opinions. (Thursday, 11 a.m.)
FEA CONTINUES BUS TOUR: The Florida Education Association will continue a bus tour focused on calling for increased education funding. (Thursday, noon, United Teachers of Dade, 2200 Biscayne Blvd., Miami.)

Thank you Gary, the order of the names has been rearranged accordingly. Thanks for the reminder about the email: with the redesign we had on our list to create a more engaging footer, with contact information, email, etc., but have yet to get around to doing that. We will.
