Ongoing highway construction projects — there are 61 of them in Northeast Flor-ida — that close lanes and roads, extend daily commutes and induce occasional outbursts from motorists took more than just years to devise.
No, those frustrating and seemingly endless construction projects started out on drawing boards and planning meetings decades ago.
“You’re talking something that’s 15 to 20 years in the thinking,” said Jeff Sheffield, executive director of the North Florida Transportation Planning Organization in Jacksonville.
Transportation planners are usually nervous about making predictions on what will and won’t be built because the plan-ning is so fluid.
“How many days do you have?” the Flor-ida Department of Transportation’s Larry Parks said when asked to describe road construction planning. “There are a lot of moving parts.”
The process often begins with lists of needs and wishes from cities and counties based on population growth and commer-cial development, said Parks, director of the department’s District 2 office of trans-

BRUNSWICK, GA. | Chief Su-perior Court Judge Aman-da F. Williams, who once sentenced a man to two weeks in jail for challeng-ing a drug test, will leave office Jan. 2 just nine days before a deadline to answer numerous charges of judi-cial misconduct, including tyrannical behavior.
Williams, 64, advised Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal on Tuesday of her intent to resign after 21 years on the bench.
In return for the Judicial Qualifications Commission dropping charges against her, Williams agreed not seek another judicial office or senior judge status.
That prohibition is im-mediate and permanent, the consent order says.
By virtue of his seniority, Superior Court Judge E.M. Wilkes III will replace Wil-liams as chief judge of the five-county Brunswick Ju-dicial Circuit.
The charges against Wil-liams included that she lied to investigators, a crime under Georgia law.
If Williams had not re-signed, the commission would have conducted a hearing on all 14 counts and could have sought her removal from the bench.
Last week, the commis-sion amended its Nov. 9 complaint in which it ac-cused her of tyrannical behavior, especially in run-ning her drug court, the state’s largest.
Williams had imposed indefinite jail terms on drug court defendants, deprived some of contact with their lawyers and jailed one man

WASHINGTON | The Senate is gone, the House is packing up, and for now that means work-ing Americans will see their taxes rise in January.
After weeks of bitter par-
tisan wrangling, the Capitol emptied for the holidays with no sign of negotiation toward a compromise that would save an expiring tax break.
As of Jan. 1, the payroll tax cut that has been in place all year is scheduled to return to 6.2 percent from its current 4.2 percent, meaning that bi-
weekly paychecks on average will be $40 smaller. Long-term unemployment benefits for 3 million people also are poised to expire, and doctors face an estimated 20 percent cut in Medicare payments.
Facing that unpleasant re-ality, Republicans fell into an angry family feud over their strategy. Several GOP sena-tors who face re-election next year accused their House GOP colleagues of acting ir-responsibly. The House voted
to disagree with the biparti-san bill the Senate had passed to preserve the tax cut for two months so Congress would have more time to work on a full-year extension.
Democrats, meantime, were happy to accuse Republicans of voting to block a tax cut and leaving town without finish-ing their work — the same ar-gument Republicans planned to use on them.
“The issue right now is this: The clock is ticking; time is
running out,” President Ba-rack Obama said in a state-ment at the White House after the vote. “And if the House Republicans refuse to vote for the Senate bill, or even allow it to come up for a vote, taxes will go up in 11 days.”
This was not a fight that seasoned Republican lawmak-ers, most prominent among them House Speaker John A. Boehner of Ohio, would have

In the past five years, this country has seen the direst financial crisis since the great depression. The stock market, the real estate and automo-tive industries took direct hits.
But, economic indicators now are hinting — strongly hinting — that the worst is over and that the na-tion is on an upward course toward stability.
But, what about those who may have been the hardest hit by the financial upheaval — America’s seniors? Do they face continued eco-nomic hardship, or is there a patch of blue sky to be seen ahead?
The experts seem to be divided on that question. Adding to the uncertainty is the President’s plan to reduce Social Security benefits by using a chained CPI to determine future cost-of-living increases.
What exactly is chained CPI?
In an article published in Febru-ary’s AARP bulletin, author Kim Keister explained:
“The acronym is easy. CPI stands for Consumer Price Index, a formula that looks at how the prices of stuff we need (food for example) change over time. It’s used to make cost-of-living adjustments in programs such as Social Security, veterans’ benefits and food stamps.

While elephants (yes, elephants!) are feasting on fruits and vegetables, you can indulge in your choice of gourmet tacos, burgers, grilled cheese sandwiches and more.
It’s all part of the Sec-ond Annual Trunks and Truckies Elephant Picnic, scheduled from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday outside
Jacksonville Veterans Me-morial Arena. The family-friendly event offers an up-close look at the stars of the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus, in town for seven performances through Sunday.
Participating food trucks at the event include Baby’s Badass Burgers, The Happy Grilled Cheese, On the Fly Sandwiches & Stuff, and Taste Buds Express. Ad-mission is free.
Eat with elephants at food truck event
Lunch is served for people and pachyderms alike during the Trunks and Truckies event, seen here in 2013, with several local food trucks serving up their best alongside elephants from the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey’s Circus.

Tucked away among the trees of Jack-sonville’s Westside is a community unlike any other in the city. Cecil Pines, an adult living community, offers seniors a secure and peaceful environment on a heavily wooded 53-acre property. With just 92 homes in the community, only a limited number of residents can enjoy this main-tenance-free lifestyle at such a reasonable monthly rental fee.
“A lot of senior communities have all kinds of amenities that are great if you want them, but extremely expensive if you don’t,” said Cecil Pines Executive Director Byran Beinkampen. “Cecil Pines is an at-tractive and reasonably priced community for seniors who don’t want to pay for a lot of amenities, like food service and house-keeping, which they don’t really need.”
However, all the necessities are pro-vided at Cecil Pines. The gated-access community takes care of all home mainte-
nance, inside and out. Yard maintenance is included. And, there is an emergency-response system in every home.
“Should you ever need assistance sim-ply press the button and the paramedics will be at your door in about two minutes,” Beinkampen said.
The requirements to live at Cecil Pines? Very few.
“You must be 55 or over, able to live independently and meet the financial guidelines,” Beinkampen said. “There is no maximum restriction on income here, and the lower age allows people who are still working to live here. That’s great for those who work at Boeing and the other busi-nesses in the area.”
Utilities are not included, but again, the price is right. Electricity, gas, water and sewer usually run about $200 a month.
“We’re also a pet-friendly neighborhood; cats and small dogs — inside only — are
welcomed at Cecil Pines,” Beinkampen said. “We even have a special pet-lovers’ group.”
Cecil Pines’ 92 homes include du-plexes and single-family residences, priced from $893 to $1166 per month.
The 1,200-square-foot units have two bedrooms and one bath, while the 1,500-square-foot homes have three bed-rooms and two full baths. All homes have a carport, a private patio with space for a garden, and storage rooms located on the front and back of the home.
“And anything you want to do for fun is right nearby,” Beinkampen said. “An Olympic-sized pool and municipal golf course are very close, and a fitness center is located right across the street. Shopping is just minutes away at Oakleaf Town Center.”
Residents also will enjoy many social activities at Cecil Pines community center, including potluck suppers, game nights, crafting, volunteer opportunities and spe-cial interest groups.
For more information about Cecil Pines Adult Living Community, visit www.CecilPines.org, or call Christina at (904) 771-8839 to arrange a tour.

Windows and doors are key design elements in any structure. They provide essential light and access as well as aes-thetic appeal inside and out. Older win-dows and doors likely are candidates for replacement as time and the elements take their toll on appearance as well as energy efficiency.
Owners may want to consider replac-ing older windows and doors to take advantage of advances in technology that provide improved energy efficiency and security without sacrificing appear-ance.
When considering replacement, it is imperative to find knowledgeable professionals who can help choose ap-propriate products that fit your needs and budget. Keith and Vicki Gurr, co-owners of American Window Products
Inc., have been providing Jacksonville residents and businesses with high-quality replacement windows and doors for more than 30 years.
“As a family-owned local business we have a vested interest in the area and in providing the best products and services to our customers,” Keith said. “We are a state-certified and licensed contractor. We care about our customers and help protect their investment through proper practices, including adhering to all per-mit requirements and building codes.”
According to Keith, each sales repre-sentative meets Energy Star-certified education requirements.
“Every American Window Prod-ucts vehicle is fully equipped, and our professional installation teams are employees whose work we guarantee,”
Keith added. “The company is an EPA lead-certified contractor for homes and buildings built prior to 1978, allow-ing us to test for lead and, if necessary, complete the job using EPA-established lead-renovation practices.”
American Window Products repre-sents more than 16 window and door manufacturers with more than 80 models of windows and doors allow-ing customers many choices to fit any project or budget.
“We offer single-, double- and triple-pane, vinyl-encased glass windows as well as impact-laminated glass for storm and security considerations,” Keith said. “We offer many options for Florida-approved hurricane products, including our popular hurricane fabric screens. Product warranties range from 10 years
to lifetime for glass and parts, and we service our installed products as long as you own them.”
“We can provide replacement vinyl windows for almost any structure including mobile homes, brick, block, stucco, wood and metal buildings and sun and screen rooms. Products are available in custom colors and with additional energy-saving, security and convenience features,” Keith said. “And our more than 27,000 satisfied custom-ers since 1981 are evidence of our broad range of products and commitment to our customers.”
If it’s time to improve the energy efficiency, security and appearance of your home or business, call American Window Products today to schedule a free in-home estimate.

Motion filed to revoke bond for Alexander
The State Attorney’s Office has filed a motion to revoke Marissa Alexander’s bond, ac-cording to Times-Union news partner First Coast News.
Alexander was convicted of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and sentenced to 20 years in prison after firing a gun at her hus-band.
Alexander has main-tained she fired a weapon as a warning shot.
The convic-tion was thrown out on appeal because jury instructions were incorrect.
As a condition of her bond, Al-exander was to remain on home detention.
According to First Coast News, the motion states Alexan-der did not stay in her home, but instead left to run errands.
A hearing for the motion has been set for 9 a.m. Friday.

2 candidates for FAMU president advance
TALLAHASSEE | Florida A&M University is narrowing its list
of candidates for university president.
A university search commit-tee on Monday interviewed six semifinalists for the position. Two candidates were asked to meet with FAMU trustees later this week.
The two chosen were Elmira Mangum, vice president for budget and planning at Cornell University, and John Price, the former president of University of North Texas at Dallas.
But the Tallahassee Demo-crat reported former FAMU president Walter Smith told the search committee the school should hire its current interim president.
Smith said that Larry Rob-inson was better than any of the candidates who were being considered.
Robinson has led the school since the abrupt resignation of James Ammons amid the fallout of the hazing death of a drum major.
Congressman with cocaine conviction faces challenger
NAPLES | A former state leg-islator says he will run in the Republican primary against a Southwest Florida congressman who pleaded guilty to cocaine possession.
Former state Rep. Paige Kree-
gel plans formally announce Tuesday that he will challenge freshman U.S. Rep. Trey Radel. The Naples Daily News reports that Kreegel got just under 18 percent of the vote in the 2012 GOP primary, which Radel won.
Kreegel previously served two four-year terms in the state House. Several other candidates have filed papers indicating they will run for Radel’s seat.
Radel pleaded guilty in No-vember to a misdemeanor charge of cocaine possession and was sentenced to a year of proba-tion. He recently underwent treatment at a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center.
The House Ethics Committee is investigating his conduct.
Citrus County appraiser’s death suspected as suicide
LECANTO | Detectives suspect that the death of Citrus County’s property appraiser was a suicide.
Sheriff’s deputies said Monday that foul play has been ruled out in Geoffrey Green’s death.
The 63-year-old Green was found dead Sunday in his Lecanto home by his wife.
The Citrus County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release that no one else was home at the time of his death.
The sheriff’s office also says a suicide note wasn’t found and
that an autopsy would be con-ducted Monday.
Aircraft help guide cranes to new home on Gulf Coast
ST. MARKS | Eight endangered whooping cranes have complet-ed their journey to their winter home on Florida’s Gulf Coast.
The birds were taught to mi-grate by humans flying ultralight aircraft. They left Wisconsin in October. On Sunday, they made the final leg of their 1,100-mile trip into St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge.
It’s the 13th migration led by aircraft flown by an organiza-tion called Operation Migration. Each fall, the group leads a flock of young cranes south to teach them a migration route. The birds are on their own for the return trip north in the spring and subsequent migrations.
About 450 whooping cranes live in the wild. About 250 migrate between Texas and Canada; they’re the only natu-ral and self-sustaining flock. Another flock has been taught to migrate between Wisconsin and Florida.
Soldier from Panhandle killed in Afghanistan
LAUREL HILL | A soldier from the Florida Panhandle died when his
unit was attacked by rocket pro-pelled grenades in Afghanistan.
The U.S. Department of De-fense says Sgt. First Class Wil-liam K. Lacey of Laurel Hill died Saturday in Nangarhar Province, Afghanistan.
Lacey was assigned to 201st Brigade Support Battalion, 3rd Brigrade Combat Team, 1st In-fantry Division in Fort Knox, Ky.
Author of paper on DCF asked to address panel
TALLAHASSEE | Florida Senate President Don Gaetz on Mon-day took the next step toward reforming the state Department of Children and Families by ask-ing the author of a white paper to address a Senate panel on how to improve the agency’s approach to child safety.
Former Department of Children and Families special counsel Neil Skene — who wrote a newly released white paper called “Dependency Disorder: An Rx for What Ails DCF” — will speak to the Senate Chil-dren, Families and Elder Affairs Committee on Wednesday.
His appearance comes as lawmakers review a series of child deaths earlier this year and consider remedies in the wake of the latest departure of a DCF secretary, David Wilkins, who resigned under fire in July.

The unconventional design of the website focuses heavily on user participation and interaction. The home page features news, video, and staff blogs, updated around the clock. Users who register can start their own blogs.
Independent research shows that, taken together, The Florida Times-Union and Jacksonville.com reach 52% of the adults in the five-county metropolitan area** and almost 593,000 adult readers/visitors in our 15-county Designated Market Area**.
