“Whoever shall maintain that wrong is done to heretics and blasphemers in punishing them makes himself an accomplice in their crime…. There is no question here of man’s authority; it is God Who speaks, and it is clear what law He would have kept in the Church even to the end of the world. Wherefore does He demand of us so extreme severity if not to show us that due honor is not paid Him so long as we set not His service above every human consideration, so that we spare not kin nor blood of any, and forget all humanity when the matter is to combat for His glory?”

–John Calvin, in defense of torturing, beheading and burning heretics (1556).

In Flagler and Palm Coast:

Note: all government meetings noticed below are free and open to the public unless otherwise indicated. Many can be heard or seen live through each agency’s website.

Daily incident reports and jail bookings are posted here.

The Flagler County Commission meets at 9 a.m., board chambers at the Government Services Building in Bunnell. On the agenda: appointing a new member to the county’s economic development board. But commissioners will have to decide between former County Commissioner Barbara Revels and former Palm Coast City Council member Jason DeLorenzo. Revels was defeated by Commissioner Dave Sullivan after eight years on the commission–and after launching the economic development panel, as its chairman for six years. DeLorenzo was defeated in his bid to unseat Commissioner Charlie Ericksen. Revels and DeLorenzo have long been political allies. They’ll make it tough for the commission o pick an appointee, but if anyone has an inside track, it seems to be Revels.

Groundbreaking for the relocation and extension of Runway 11-29 at the Flagler County Airport, 1:30 p.m. at the airport.

Medical pot workshop: The Florida Department of Health’s Office of Compassionate Use will begin a series of workshops about carrying out a November constitutional amendment that broadly legalized medical marijuana in the state. (2 p.m., Duval County Health Department, 900 University Blvd. North, Jacksonville.)

The great violinist Itzhak Perlman opens the 2017 season of the Amelia Island Chamber Music Festival with a 7:30 p.m. performance at First Baptist Church, 1600 South 8th Street in Fernandina Beach. Tickets here.

ronald reaganMostly useless information: Women’s suffrage arrives in Britain on this date in 1918, but only for women 30 and older. Elizabeth II becomes queen of England in 1952, starting a reign that has lasted now 65 years and improbably prolonging a monarchy that should have been abolished a long time ago. Antoine Arnauld, the French mathematician, philosopher and Jansenist (a sort of mullah of his times), is born on this day in 1612 to torment Jesuits for many years thereafter. Babe Ruth was born in 1895 to torment legions of pitchers, the great pianist Claudio Arrau was born in 1903, and in 1911, Ronald Reagan was born to make Hollywood B movies great again. Let’ not mention that Eva Braun was born the following year.

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.

florida capital punishmentUnanimous juries in death sentences: The Senate Criminal Justice Committee will take up a bill (SB 280), filed by Chairman Randolph Bracy, D-Orlando, that would require unanimous jury recommendations before defendants could be sentenced to death. The Legislature passed a measure last year that required at least 10 of 12 jurors to recommend the death penalty, a departure from a longstanding law that required a simple majority. But the Florida Supreme Court in October ruled that jury recommendations must be unanimous for the death penalty to be imposed. (4 p.m.)

State colleges: The Senate Education Committee will consider a proposal (SB 374), filed by Chairwoman Dorothy Hukill, R-Port Orange, that would make numerous changes in the state college system. Among other things, the colleges would be put under a new governing board and would face new restrictions on offering baccalaureate degrees. (4 p.m.)

Human trafficking: The Senate Children, Families and Elder Affairs Committee will receive presentations about human trafficking, including a presentation by Miami-Dade County State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle. (4 p.m.)
