Today at the editor’s glance: The Flagler Beach City Commission meets at 5:30 p.m. at City Hall. Two residents, James Heren and Stephanie Raffo, will be recognized for their efforts to save the life of patron at The Anchor restaurant. Roseanne Stocker will also be recognized for her 22 years of service on the city’s Planning and Architectural Review Board, among numerous other civic and philanthropic involvements. County Attorney Al Hadeed will give commissioners the latest update on the dunes project and its perennial holdouts. Commissioners will discuss beach-access improvements for the disabled: the administration has a few low-cost options. Then there’s this curious little item on the commission’s agenda: Michael Pugliese, a Flagler Beach resident, is requesting that the city commission amend its noise ordinance to require houses that have wind chimes to be “attached to the dwelling.” The request is very vague, but it appears to be an attempt to address wind chimes left to the winds in yards, for the pleasure of it. Tour de France: Stage 12 takes riders and TV tourists from Saint-Paul-Trois-Chateaux, a little north of Avignon, to Nimes, a flat trip through the beauties of the south of France.

“What I hate is good citizenship history. That has wrecked every history book. Now we’re getting, ‘The Hispanics are warm and joyous and have brought such wonder into our lives,’ you know, and before them the Jews, and before them the blacks. And the woman. I mean, cut it out.”
–Gore Vidal, from John Wiener’s “The Scholar Squirrels and the National Security State: An Interview with Gore Vidal,” Radical History Review, Spring 1989.
