Ameris, Jacksonville Bank good fit
As far as Jacksonville Bancorp Inc. CEO Kendall Spencer sees it, his bank’s proposed acquisition by Ameris Bancorp fits his employees and customers “like a hand in glove.” Ameris announced its $96.6 million agreement to buy the parent company of The Jacksonville Bank on Thursday. “The cultural fit — which is important to me — with Ameris Bank could not be better,” Spencer said during a conference call with Ameris executives and analysts. Ameris is officially headquartered in Moultrie, Ga., but the
company has announced plans to move its top executives to offices in the Riverplace Tower on Jacksonville’s Southbank by Jan. 1. The bank will also put the Ameris name on top of the 28-story tower. “The timing of this announcement is excellent for our company with the relocation of our executive team to Jacksonville just
in the last few months,” Ameris CEO Edwin Hortman said during the conference call. The addition of Jacksonville Bank will put Ameris in “an enviable market position” in Northeast Florida, he said, as it basically moves its headquarters to Jacksonville. Ameris will have 101 branches in four states after completing the deal, but Jacksonville will be a key market. “The current team in Jacksonville is outstanding and has produced results that put them near the top of our company in almost everything we measure,” Hort-
man said. “Combining those forces with the Jacksonville Bank team is really exciting because I believe that momentum is something that we can not only leverage but grow with the larger team and recognition that will result from the deal,” he said. After the merger, Ameris will have 40 percent of its deposit base in Florida and 49 percent in Georgia. It has smaller market shares in South Carolina and Alabama. Ameris said there is some overlap between Ameris and Jacksonville Bank branches in Northeast BASCH

Manufacturing young interest Industry, schools trying to attract next workforce
By David Chapman Staff Writer The constant beeps of forklifts filled the air as the vehicles made their way through aisles filled with goods that stretch to the ceiling. Beep. Beep. Beep. In the same large room, there’s interspersed whirring, banging, talking. Each sound can be distinctly picked up if one tries. But combined, it’s harmony. The music of industry. These notes filled the air at Safariland, maker of law enforcement and security gear. Items like body armor, helmets, shields, holsters, batons and just about anything else one can think for that indus-

try except guns. In the middle of a typical Friday on the floor are a dozen or so Robert E. Lee High School seniors who take part in a logistics program. They’re on a field trip to the North Jacksonville facility to see how the industry looks and works today. Throughout October, close to 600 students from schools in the region are taking similar tours in other local pillars of advanced manufacturing. Caterpillar, Rayonier, Saft, Johnson & Johnson Vision Care and a dozen others. It’s part of “Manufacturing Month,” a time when students get out of the classroom to see exactly how the businesses work.

For those in the industry, though, it’s something more. It’s a lure. A way to show the young up-and-coming workforce that manufacturing is a steady, lucrative career in an atmosphere that’s entirely different than years past. It’s not dirty or dingy. It’s air-conditioned. Organized. “It’s not just old smokestack factories,” said state Rep. Lake Ray, president of the First Coast Manufacturers Association. “We’re well beyond that.” Sharing that message with young people is important. Within 10 years, Ray said, about 50 percent of the manufacturing workforce will retire. Succession planning, of sorts, has been slow — partly because students don’t think MANUFACTURING

An uproar at the Duval County Courthouse in September has calmed down to nearly business as usual. The state Supreme Court ordered that effective July 3, personal information in court records — such as financial and medical information, names of juveniles and Social Security numbers — must be redacted from documents before they are made available online. The new protocol meant the Duval County Clerk of Courts staff had to review and redact more than 28,000 online records already in the system while attempting to keep up with the steady influx of new records needing to be entered into the the office’s Online Resource E-portal. The immediate access to the records to which people had become accustomed was gone. That’s what caused the uproar. On Sept. 30, about 600 of Jacksonville’s roughly Coxe 3,600 attorneys and others went to the courthouse to register their displeasure at no longer being able to instantly access court records online. Hank Coxe, former president of The Florida Bar and The Jacksonville Bar Association, said then that by the time lawyers were finally able to access records — sometimes as long as a six-day delay — they no longer needed them. Coxe said Friday that has changed. “If you look at today versus when the change started, it’s as different as night and day,” he said. “I’m not hearing the chorus of complaints.” Krystal Watson, clerk’s office chief RECORDS CONTINUED ON PAGE A-7

DCF, 2 firms pay $750,000 to families in mass killing
By The News Service of Florida
The Florida Department of Children and Families and two private companies have agreed to pay $750,000 to settle legal claims resulting from a mass killing in Gilchrist County last year. Don Spirit, 51, murdered his daughter, Sarah, and her six children — who ranged in age from 2 months old to 11 years old — before committing suicide. DCF will pay $450,000, while the Partnership for Strong Families and Devereux, two companies that help the state manage child-welfare cases, will pay $250,000 and $50,000, respectively, as part of the settlement. According to the department, the family had been involved in 18 child-protective investigations
from February 2006 to Sept. 18, 2014, the day of the killings. Don Spirit was involved in six of the investigations and was alleged to have been the perpetrator in three, including a 2008 incident in which he was arrested for physically abusing his thenpregnant daughter. The murders prompted questions about whether the department and private providers could have done more to protect the children. According to what is known as a Critical Incident Rapid Response Team, DCF and the Gilchrist County Sheriff’s Office had visited the family’s home as recently as Sept. 2, 2014, but the report said a case note indicated that the children were not “in imminent danger of illness
or injury from abuse, neglect or abandonment.” In response, DCF Secretary Mike Carroll ordered the retraining of staff in the department’s nearby Chiefland office and a review of all open investigations involving children 3 years old and younger in Gilchrist and Dixie counties. He also ordered training for 1,600 child protective investigators and supervisors statewide, and increased the implementation of a process known as the “Rapid Safety Feedback” system, which allows quality-assurance specialists to oversee a child-protective investigation in real time. “I have been with the department for 25 years,” Carroll said then. “And I thought I had seen it all until this tragedy occurred.”

HOW I STAY ACTIVE JEREMY PAUL
“
Dawson |Orr
I stay active by getting outdoors. I do simple workouts during the week with a focus on staying in shape to get into wilderness and off the beaten path as much as possible. I enjoy kayaking and hiking long distances to find the best fishing and hunting spots, and also to find peace. These activities keep me healthy and balanced.

HANS WAHL
Jimerson & Cobb, P.A.
To remain active as age increases and free time decreases, I keep two goals: (1) run two miles before work, requiring extra 20-30 minutes; (2) circuit training on three mornings — mix of pushups, pullups, sit-ups, dips, curls, etc., requiring 30 extra minutes those days. At most I’m dedicating an extra hour each morning. I also do a random 5K on weekends if I can.

Maximize foundation of energy, performance

“
I try to stay active by going to my local YMCA and going on semi-long runs at least twice a week. I am lucky to have co-workers who also enjoy staying active and push me to get out of my chair and work out my weekly fast-food intake. It also helps that my local YMCA is within five minutes of my office, making it easier to work out at the end of the day.
Crossing the finish lines at these events were magical feelings and I wanted more of it. I added swimming to my training and completed several triathlons. Fast forward and I have completed many epic full-day hikes, runs and triathlons, including 11 amazing marathons in various continents and three full Ironmans. The long and grueling schedule to complete an Ironman while also working full CARSON

I try to train outdoors and vary my exercise regimen so I don’t lose motivation. I’m more effective if I schedule a specific time to exercise, recruit a workout partner so I stay accountable to someone other than myself, and/or register for an event for which I have to train. When all else fails, my dog reminds me to take her out on a run.

Are you performing at your full potential? The current and future challenges to the legal profession require that successful lawyers invest time in maximizing their energy to achieve and sustain high performance, and deal with increasing demands. I am learning every day how high achieving athletes and executives perform at their best. Here, I am sharing some of those secrets from triathlon training that I hope can help you find your success and high performance. I didn’t grow up a swimmer, cyclist or runner. I began exercising regularly in my late 30s (I wish I would have done it before). I grew up in Cuba where I primarily studied and worked. Later, I had to work to rebuild my life as an immigrant in two countries. But, when I went back to school to obtain my law degree while continuing to work and commuting long distances, I knew I needed to do something to maintain good health, manage stress and maximize my energy. As a result, my husband, Jeff, and I started cycling and completed several MS150 rides. Later, I trained and completed the Gate River Run 15K.
“
Many attorneys will live on forever, sometimes famously (read: infamously), in their court filings. While this kind of immortality was good enough for Achilles, I remind myself as often as is practicable (if that is actually a word) that I have one body and one life. So, as a mindful mortal, I ‘beat feet’ through Riverside after work.

McGuireWoods, Citi team up for seniors Payment included big smiles, warm handshakes and some grateful hugs when paralegals, notaries and attorneys gathered at the MCCI Normandy Boulevard Clinic to create advance directive documents for lowincome seniors. Volunteers in the 4th Judicial Circuit continue to join forces to ensure senior citizens will have the support of people they trust as they manage health, housing and financial matters. Most recently those ranks were strengthened by the legal teams at McGuireWoods and Citi. Elizabeth Rothenberg, of McGuireWoods, and Erika Posada-Diaz, from Citi, led the effort for their organizations. In preparation for the event, pro bono attorney Robert Morgan provided a lunchtime CLE training session for volunteers on the Citi campus. The Advance Directives for Seniors project at the clinic was presented in three segments. In the first segment, pro bono attorney Debbie Lee-Clark described for a group the purposes of each advance directive document: durable power of attorney, designation of health
care surrogate, designation of pre-need guardian and a living will. Seniors who wanted to sign up to have the documents created worked with Veronica Johnson, the activities coordinator at the clinic, to schedule a time to meet with an attorney Sept. 24. Document creation is the second segment of the project. Nine senior citizens completed their advance directives documents. The third segment of the project provides assistance for seniors who were not able to attend the event but who have indicated they would like to have the service. At least four seniors who were unable to attend will be assisted by attorneys at the clinic. The following attorneys provided legal assistance at the clinic: Elizabeth Rothenberg, Deborah Brennan Magri, Debbie LeeClark, Daniel Mahfood, Kimberly Mydock, Christina Chavez, Emily Rottmann and Taylor Broadhead. Paralegal Donna Hoffman, of Lindell & Farson, notarized documents and scanned executed

Supreme Court disbars, Carson suspends local attorneys CONTINUED FROM FRONT PAGE
From The Florida Bar The Florida Supreme Court recently disciplined 19 attorneys — disbarring two, revoking the licenses of two, suspending 11 and publicly reprimanding four. Three attorneys were also placed on probation. Two are from Jacksonville: • Alma Celeste Defillo, 660 Park St., Jacksonville, permanently disbarred. (Admitted to practice: 2000) Defillo worked as an immigration lawyer and maintained offices in North Carolina and South Carolina, despite being only a member of The Florida Bar. Because of her significant misconduct in South Carolina, Defillo the Supreme Court there permanently forbade her from practicing law in the state and appointed a receiver for her clients. In several instances, Defillo was retained to represent clients and failed to adequately do so. She often failed to communicate, charged excessive fees and in South Carolina, she failed to disclose on her business cards, radio and print advertisements that she was not admitted to practice in the state. • Amy Elizabeth Newby, 3869 E. Santa Fe St., Jacksonville, suspended for three years. Further, Newby shall be placed on probation for three years, upon reinstatement. (Admitted to practice: 2003) Newby was convicted of federal Newby mail fraud, a felony. She was sentenced to incarceration for 15 months. The others are: • Benjamin Scott Anderson, Elkhorn, Neb., suspended for three years. (Admitted to practice: 2006) The suspension will be in effect until he complies with the terms of a March 19 suspension order, prior to petitioning for reinstatement. Anderson was found in contempt for failing to provide to The Florida Bar within 30 days of his suspension, a sworn affidavit listing the names and addresses of all persons and entities who were furnished a copy of his suspension order. • Masable Larumbla Baker, Dover, to be publicly reprimanded. (Admitted to practice: 2002) After being retained, Baker failed to diligently represent a client. He communicated with the client’s girlfriend who paid him rather than with the client. Therefore the client was unable to make an informed decision about the representation. • Margaret Blot, Pembroke Pines, suspended for 91 days. (Admitted to practice: 2005) In two separate cases, Blot negligently deposited client monies into her primary business account. She did not maintain required minimum trust account records and in one instance she did not properly file a client’s immigration documents because of a fee dispute with him. • George Joseph Charnota, Coral Gables, suspended until further order. (Admitted to practice: 2001) Charnota was found in
contempt for failure to respond in writing to an official Bar inquiry. Letters were sent to his record Bar address in September, October and December of 2014 and again in February and April. • Matthew Brennan Cleary III, Labelle, suspended until further order. (Admitted to practice: 2004) According to a petition for emergency suspension, Cleary appeared to be causing great public harm. Two judges found him in indirect criminal contempt for intentionally and deliberately failing to timely appear for trials in April; at an order to show cause hearing, Cleary appeared in court under the influence of drugs. • Richard A. Colegrove Jr., Sanford, disbarred. (Admitted to practice: 1988) The Florida Bar found clear and convincing evidence that allegations in two sworn complaints against Colegrove were substantiated. Additionally, Colegrove failed to follow a direct order by the court and he failed to file a written response to a Bar inquiry even after being given multiple opportunities. • Howard Feinmel, Boca Raton. The court granted Feinmel a disciplinary revocation with leave to seek readmission after five years. (Admitted to practice: 1999) Disciplinary revocation is tantamount to disbarment. Feinmel had disciplinary charges pending regarding the filing of frivolous lawsuits and failure to provide meaningful representation to clients. • Randy Fischer, Ocala, suspended for 60 days. (Admitted to practice: (1976) Fischer’s improper conduct in court resulted in a mistrial. The judge found Fischer’s behavior during the trial to be improper — noting his disregard for the court’s authority and attempts to circumvent the court’s rulings. • Linda Dawn Hadad, Daytona Beach, suspended until further order (Admitted to practice: 2002) According to a petition for emergency suspension, Hadad appeared to be causing great public harm. A Bar investigation found she engaged in an ongoing pattern of behavior that presents a threat to the judicial system including illegal drug activities and sexual conduct with her clients, failing to timely appear for court hearings, closing her office without informing her clients and failing to respond to the Bar. • Peter Mark Hodkin, Hollywood. The court granted Hodkin a disciplinary revocation with leave to seek readmission after five years. (Admitted to practice: 1979) Disciplinary revocation is tantamount to disbarment. Hodkin had disciplinary charges pending regarding his conversion of client monies. • Manuel R. Lopez, Coral Gables, suspended for three years. Further, Lopez shall remain suspended until he has certified compliance with the Court. (Admitted to practice: 1993) Lopez was found in contempt for failing to comply with the terms of a Feb. 26 court order. He was required to provide to The Florida Bar within 30 days of his suspension, a sworn affidavit listing the names and addresses of all persons and entities who

were furnished a copy of his suspension order. • Theodore Mack, Tallahassee, to be publicly reprimanded. (Admitted to practice: 1975) Mack was indicted on a federal charge of knowingly transmitting a communication containing a threat in interstate commerce. The threat involved sending the communication to a U.S. Congressman via his official website. Mack admitted that the authored the post under an alias using a bogus address. The federal case was subsequently dismissed after Mack accepted an agreement for pretrial diversion. • Jonathan Ari Markhoff, North Miami Beach, suspended for 90 days. Further, he shall be placed on probation for three years. (Admitted to practice: 2010) Markhoff failed to maintain adequate accounting records, commingled client funds and caused a client’s check to be returned for insufficient funds. • Jose Antonio Pagan II, Miami, to be publicly reprimanded. (Admitted to practice: 2007) Pagan used misleading advertising on his firm’s website advertisement listing cities in which he did not have bona fide fully staffed offices, in violation of Bar rules. Pagan omitted important information necessary for clients to make decisions regarding legal representation and he promised results. Pagan also failed to respond to the Bar’s official inquiries in January, February and March. • Scott Lowell Podvin, Miami Beach, to be publicly reprimanded by publication in the Southern Reporter. (Admitted to practice: 1994) Podvin was the subject of Bar disciplinary matters and waived the right to probable cause hearings before a grievance committee. • Bryan D. Savy, West Melbourne, suspended for 30 days. In addition, Savy will be placed on probation for three years with the condition that he enter a new rehabilitation contract with Florida Lawyers Assistance Inc., with monthly testing for the duration of the contract. (Admitted to practice: 2005) Savy was found in contempt for violating the terms of an October 2014 rehabilitation contract that required him to abstain from the consumption of alcohol. • Marlon Alphanso Smikle, Lake Mary, suspended until further order. (Admitted to practice: 2014) Smikle pleaded no contest to conspiracy to introduce contraband into a county correctional facility, a third-degree felony.
time and maintaining other commitments teaches you to redefine obstacles, develop habits to maximize your time and energy, focus on what is most important and cultivate positive relationships. No matter where you are in your life, I hope that the tips below that I have learned from triathlon training help you maximize your energy to achieve your goals.
Plan your meals and stick to the plan
Have the discipline to plan healthy meals and snacks, eat them mindfully and minimize sugar in your diet. Just these small changes will lead to significant improvement in your energy and health. About 80 percent of the health benefits we gain from a healthy lifestyle come from what we eat and 20 percent from the exercise we do. However, the 20 percent is powerful as discussed below. Think about your typical day. Our lowest energy time is around 3 p.m. and many reach for coffee, sugary and/or processed foods for a temporary boost. Instead, plan to have an afternoon snack containing protein and fat. This combination will promote satiety and help offset slow metabolism. For example have a hand full of raw nuts, a slice of cheese or plain fat-free Greek yogurt with berries, and do some simple stretching or walking. You will be on your way to optimal energy.
Nurture this ‘keystone habit’
Some habits can unlock a cascade of changes from which other good habits grow with significantly less effort. Charles Duhigg, a Pulitzer prize-winning reporter for The New York Times, in his bestselling book “The Power of Habit,” calls these habits “keystone habits” and exercise is one of them. According to Duhigg, developing a keystone habit such as exercise influences how we work, eat, play, live, spend and com-
municate. This habit can change our sense of self and our sense of what is possible. For example, commit to doing some simple exercises for just 10 minutes every day. Soon, you will begin to crave doing more than 10 minutes. As your endurance and fitness improve, you will start to need less sugar, alcohol, coffee or other stimulants, because the exercise is giving you a healthy psychological boost. This will also lead to you eating better, sleeping better and becoming more fit, strong and productive, all without much effort. Wondering what are other keystone habits? I will cover more of those in Part II in November.
Develop a powerful support community
Personal relationships add more meaning, value and energy to our lives. Build a powerful network of friendships that is also passionate about healthy habits and transformative positive goals, and you will be on your way to achieving your dreams. I am very grateful to those who have trained with me for many miles and shared tips, including attorneys Alan Pickert, Holt Harrell, Susan Haag, Tara Vanderperren, John McDonald and Steven Boyne. I am also very thankful for the outstanding support of my assistants, Thyra and Ka’Leigh, my law firm, Marks Gray, P.A., and the laughs, love and remarkable support of my husband, Jeff. Ken Chlouber, 72, minerturned ultrarunner, co-founder of the Leadville Trail 100 (“the Race Across the Sky”) to bring more visitors to Leadville and Colorado state senator, says regularly, “We’re tougher than we think we are and we can do more than we think we can!” Take the challenge to optimize your health and performance to a level higher than you think you can. I look forward to continue to work with you to make The Jacksonville Bar Association the best it can be.

CONTINUED FROM FRONT PAGE Florida, but the only planned closure right now will be Jacksonville Bank’s downtown office.
Kraton stock falls on Arizona Chemical deal
The Ameris-Jacksonville Bancorp deal was the second acquisition of a Jacksonville-based company announced last week. Kraton Performance Polymers Inc. announced a $1.37 billion deal to buy privately held Arizona Chemical Holdings Corp., which has headquarters offices in Jacksonville and in the Netherlands. Kraton’s stock dropped by $1.31 to $17.04 last Monday after the deal was announced, apparently on concern about the debt Houston-based Kraton will take on to fund the $1.37 billion cash price. Moody’s Investors Service on Tuesday placed Kraton’s corporate debt rating under review for possible downgrade, because of the expected increase in debt. However, if Kraton’s projections are right, the addition of Arizona Chemical will significantly increase its earnings. Kraton said the deal will add $1.40 a share to annual earnings once the deal is completed. The average analysts’ forecast for Kraton’s 2016 earnings had been $2.23 a share before the acquisition was announced, according to Thomson Financial. SunTrust Robinson Humphrey analyst Jason Freuchtel said in a research note that Kraton could earn $6 a share by 2018, so the stock was trading at less than three times its projected future earnings after the merger announcement. Freuchtel has a “buy” rating on the stock. “We believe the transaction is consistent with Kraton’s previously stated M&A objective of ‘developing strategic platforms complementing its current busi-
ness,’“ Freuchtel said in his report. Kraton, which produces engineered polymers, said Arizona Chemical’s pine-based chemical products are a good fit for its business. Freuchtel said the deal has potential to grow sales. “As over 50 percent of Arizona Chemical’s sales are represented by markets currently served by Kraton, the combined entity should strengthen relationships with its current overlapping customer base and look to expand sales into customers not currently served by each company,” he said. Arizona Chemical has no manufacturing facilities in Northeast Florida, only the U.S. headquarters office. A Kraton spokeswoman said by email last week that the company will not discuss details of Arizona Chemical facilities before the acquisition closes and they become part of Kraton.
Local banks lead the stock pack
Interestingly, in light of the Thursday morning merger announcement, Jacksonville Bancorp was the best-performing stock among Jacksonville-based companies in the third quarter, which ended late Wednesday afternoon. In what was an overall bad quarter for the market, Jacksonville Bancorp’s stock jumped 27.5 percent. That indicates that somebody was speculating about a possible buyout before the deal was announced. Adding even more intrigue to that was a jump in Jacksonville’s other publicly traded community bank, Atlantic Coast Financial Corp., which rose 24.9 percent in the third quarter. No other Jacksonville-based company came close to those
two. The third best performance in the quarter came from Fidelity National Information Services Inc., which rose 8.5 percent after announcing an agreement to buy SunGard in a deal that is expected to increase its earnings. The major stock indexes recorded their biggest quarterly losses in four years during the third quarter, with the Dow Jones industrial average dropping 7.6 percent and the Standard & Poor’s 500 index falling 7 percent. So it’s not surprising that most Jacksonville-based companies fell during the quarter. By far the biggest loss, not counting stocks that trade for less than $1, was a 62.4 percent drop for Rayonier Advanced Materials Inc., which announced a contract dispute that could disrupt sales to its largest customer.
Fidelity completes J. Alexander’s spinoff
Fidelity National Financial Ventures recorded a big drop in the quarter, but that was mainly because it completed the spinoff of restaurant company J. Alexander’s Holdings Inc. last week. FNFV is a tracking stock for the non-real estate-related investments of Jacksonville-based Fidelity National Financial Inc. The company distributed its 87.4 percent ownership stake in J. Alexander’s to FNFV shareholders last Monday. FNFV stockholders received 0.17271 shares of J. Alexander’s for every FNFV share they owned. FNFV’s stock dropped from $13.03 at Monday’s close to $11.25 when trading opened Tuesday, reflecting the loss of value of the J. Alexander’s shares. J. Alexander’s stock, which also trades on the New York Stock Exchange, opened at $10.25 when trading began Tuesday morning,
and the stock remained near the $10 level for the rest of the week.
Stein Mart sees drop in comp sales
Stein Mart Inc. said Friday that September sales have been “sluggish” and it expects comparable-store sales for the five weeks ended Oct. 3 will show a decline by a low single-digit percentage. Comparable-store sales are sales at stores open for more than one year and are considered a key indicator of a retailer’s performance. The Jacksonville-based fashion retailer said in a news release that one less week of post-Labor Day selling of fall fashions, a shift of promotional events and unseasonably warm weather impacted September sales. “We clearly have the right merchandise in place to have a successful fall season once cooler weather arrives,” CEO Jay Stein said in a news release.
Nexstar pursues Media General
Nexstar Broadcasting Group Inc. bought Jacksonville CW network affiliate WCWJ TV-17 from Media General Inc. six years ago. Now Nexstar is going after the rest of Media General. Texas-based Nexstar announced an unsolicited $4.1 billion offer to buy Media General, saying that Media General had rebuffed its efforts to negotiate a deal. The Nexstar offer came three weeks after Virginia-based Media General announced an agreement to buy Meredith Corp., another media company that owns magazines in addition to television stations. Media General sold off its newspaper business in 2012 to focus on broadcasting, and the deal with Meredith has received harsh criticism from some investors who don’t want to see the company get back into publishing. A Nexstar-Media General merger would create a company with 162 television stations in 99 markets, and Nexstar CEO Perry Sook says it would be a better deal for Media General shareholders. “Given the compelling strategic and financial value of a combination, it is illogical that Media General’s board has refused to
engage with us and has instead pursued an ill-conceived and value-destructive acquisition of Meredith that would once again expose Media General shareholders to the risks of the low-margin publishing business,” Sook said in a news release. Media General said in a statement that its board of directors “will carefully review and consider the (Nexstar) proposal to determine the course of action that it believes is in the best interests of the company and its shareholders.”
Safariland acquires majority stake in Rogers Holster
The Safariland Group, a Jacksonville-based manufacturer of law enforcement equipment, announced last week that it acquired a 65 percent interest in another Jacksonville company called Rogers Holster Co. LLC. Rogers designs and manufactures firearm accessories, including holsters. The company will remain headquartered in Jacksonville under the leadership of founder Bill Rogers. The deal includes options for Safariland to buy the remaining 35 percent of Rogers from other company employees. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Safariland was formerly owned by Armor Holdings Inc. before Armor was acquired by BAE Systems in 2007. Former Armor Chief Executive Warren Kanders then bought Safariland back from BAE in 2012.
APR Energy gets extension from banks
APR Energy plc last week said it received a one-month extension until Oct. 31 from its banks to discuss a renegotiation of its loan terms. The Jacksonville-based company, which builds interim power plants around the world, had previously said it was in danger of breaching certain loan covenants on Sept. 30 after recent losses. The company has had to write off assets after pulling out of projects in some risky overseas countries. mbasch@baileypub.com

administrative officer, said staff worked overtime to eliminate the backlog created when the change was implemented and the time to process a request for a record has tremendously decreased. When the new system began, the clerk’s office fielded about 1,000 telephone calls and emails with questions, concerns and rants, Watson said. By September, calls related to the new rules dropped to about 50 for the month. Since July 3, most records are evaluated by software that looks for key words and number sequences to identify documents that might have to be redacted. The clerk’s office staff then checks each record to ensure the software’s accuracy before a document is posted online. In July, she said, 90 percent of requests were processed within 10 days. In August, 90 percent were processed within six days and by September, 90 percent were processed in three days and 73 percent were available within one day. “It’s been quite the ride,” Watson said. The Duval clerk’s office receives on average 44,000 e-filing transactions each month, comprising
70,000 documents that must be processed. The office also has since July 3 processed 75,000 requests for documents that weren’t immediately available online, equal to 500,000 pages that were requested and processed. Some documents, including judgment and sentence orders, finding of probable cause and civil traffic citations, are not required to be reviewed and are posted online as soon as possible after they are received. Watson said now that the clerk’s staff and the legal community have adjusted to the new procedures, the office will continue to make “tweaks and adjustments” to increase efficiency and decrease processing time for document requests. She also said the procedure that was the only option before electronic access went into effect still is available and it offers while-you-wait service for document requests. “All you have to do is come to the courthouse and visit the clerk’s office,” said Watson. mmarbut@jaxdailyrecord.com @drmaxdowntown (904) 356-2466

Manufacturing of the manufacturing industry. For so long, children were taught that college was the only way to get a rewarding, paying career, said Ray. But that isn’t the case, he said, and college isn’t for everyone. Ray said the manufacturer association is coming up with a plan to reach 100,000 middle school students within the next five years. That age group, he said, is more impressionable than high school students when explaining the field. Robots, large equipment and machines help in that regard. Florida State College at Jacksonville is helping fill that training void. The community college partners with the manufacturers group when new techniques, tools and machines hit the market and, in response, develops training and courses. Its engineering program also preps students for a mechanical aptitude test often required for machinists. In the past five years, enrollment has more than doubled. FSCJ also provides campus tours to students to show off its manufacturing-driven work. Because when it comes to the industry, “We need people, period,” said Wendy Norfleet, FSCJ dean of career education. The college has a partnership with Johnson & Johnson Vision Care and Englewood High School for a study-work program for the eye-care giant. Students who take part in the four-year program will spend the first couple of years in the classroom studying industryrelated coursework. Afterward, it’s on to FSCJ to complete an industry certificate. Most of the graduates are expected to be hired by the company. The program has 212 students in it, according to Arlinda Smith, Duval County Public Schools
executive director of career and technical education. It’s still new, having started only in the past couple of years. It’s not the only manufacturing and career-driven program the system has. A new program this year at Englewood focuses on HVAC systems, spurred by the building industry, and has 18 students in it. An automation and production program at Frank Peterson Academies has 80 students. At Mandarin High School, an industrial and biotechnology program has 30 students. And logistics-based programs at Lee, Westside and First Coast high schools have almost 200 students combined. Smith said such programs had “pretty much died” until superintendent Nikolai Vitti was hired and brought a more tradesfocused vision. Norfleet said she thinks efforts like tours and programs have been “a little slow” to be fully implemented, but they’re growing. And the seeing-is-believing approach will work. “When we can touch them and make that connection, we can hook them,” she said. It might have been the types of products Safariland produces, but there was some intrigue from the Lee students who visited. “How long does it take?” asks one student about producing a bullet-proof chest plate. About a day at the factory. “Is it heavy?” asks another, pointing to a large police riot shield. Yes, at 90 pounds, it’s heavy. “What’s that smell?” It’s an autoclav, a pressure chamber used to sterilize equipment. The most interest probably came on the forensics side of the company. With “CSI”-style crime shows popular on TV, that’s typi-

About half of them on a questionnaire said they walked into the building not thinking about a job in manufacturing, but left saying it would be something they’d consider.

Sales-tax holiday proposed for veterans By Jim Turner The News Service of Florida A Miami Democrat wants to give U.S. military veterans a twomonth sales tax “holiday” at the end of 2016. Rep. Kionne McGhee on Friday filed a measure (HB 279) that would allow veterans to avoid paying sales taxes on purchases of clothing, footwear, personal computers, books, sports gear, billiard tables and televisions. The tax break would last Nov. 1, 2016, through Dec. 31, 2016, just in time for the holidays. The proposal will have to compete with a number of other taxcut measures during the 2016 legislative session. As an example, Gov. Rick Scott on Thursday renewed his call to permanently eliminate a sales tax on manufacturing machinery and equipment. Lawmakers in 2013 approved
a three-year moratorium on the manufacturing tax, but the tax is scheduled to be revived in 2017. Scott last year projected that companies will have to pay $142.5 million annually if the tax returns. As for McGhee’s proposal, there is no immediate projection on the savings for veterans or the reductions in state revenue, but the amount could be sizable. The Florida Department of Veterans’ Affairs reports there are more than 1.5 million veterans in the Sunshine State, accounting for 12 percent of the population over the age 18. McGhee’s proposal comes as Senate committees next week will begin reviewing tax-cut measures. Also, Scott is expected soon to ask for more than $500 million in tax cuts during the 2016 legislative session. Along with making the manufacturing tax cut permanent,
McGhee another issue that could drew attention is a Scott-backed proposal to reduce a commercial real-estate lease tax. Money for tax cuts during the coming year is expected to come from a projected $635.4 million budget surplus, something that Florida TaxWatch, a Tallahasseebased think tank, warned law-
makers this week not to dip into too deep. “There will still be intense competition for funding in the next year,” Kurt Wenner, TaxWatch vice president for research, said in a release. “Just as state revenue is climbing, demand for services is also increasing. State economists have predicted $1.6 billion for increased needs next year, ranging from education to health services.” Senate President Andy Gardiner, R-Orlando, in a memo to senators indicated he would support $250 million in tax cuts. Senate committees will hear proposals during the coming week to hold a back-to-school tax holiday, trim the tax on commercial real-estate leases and reduce corporate income taxes.. The Commerce and Tourism Committee on Monday will consider a proposal (SB 198), filed
by Sen. Dorothy Hukill, R-Port Orange, that calls for a 10-day tax holiday from Aug. 5-14. The following day, the Senate Community Affairs Committee is scheduled to take up a proposal (SB 116) that would reduce the tax on commercial leases from 6 percent to 5 percent. Cutting the tax is a priority for some business groups. That bill also is sponsored by Hukill, who is the chairwoman of the Senate Finance and Tax Committee. Also, the Senate Banking and Insurance Committee will take up a proposal (SB 76), filed by Hukill, that would increase the corporate income-tax exemption from $50,000 to $75,000. Increasing the exemption would reduce — or even potentially eliminate — tax bills for businesses. Throughout his nearly five years in office, Scott has made a top priority of cutting taxes.

In an unusual legal move that sent ripples throughout the state’s pari-mutuel industry Friday, an appellate court reversed itself and decided that a Northwest Florida racetrack cannot have slot machines without the authorization of the Legislature. The ruling by a three-judge panel of the 1st District Court of Appeal sided with Attorney General Pam Bondi and Gov. Rick Scott’s administration, which sought a rehearing after a 2-1 ruling this spring in favor of Gretna Racing in Gadsden County. As they did in the earlier opinion, the judges Friday asked the Florida Supreme Court to weigh in on the issue of whether parimutuels can have slot machines if local voters approve, or if the games require the express say-so of the Legislature. Rehearings are often sought by lawyers on the losing sides of issues but are rarely granted. The Gretna case is even more unusual because Judge Nikki Ann Clark, who joined Judge Robert T. Benton in May’s majority opinion, retired while the request for rehearing was pending. The May ruling would have given the small Northwest Florida facility permission to add slot machines after Gadsden County voters approved them. The court decided against granting Bondi’s request for an “en banc,” or hearing before the full appeals court, in favor of a rehearing before a three-judge panel with a new member. Judge Ross L. Bilbrey on Friday joined the majority opinion authored by Judge Scott Makar, who wrote a scathing dissent in May. The case hinges on a semantic analysis of a 2009 law establishing eligibility for slot machines at pari-mutuels. The 2009 law, which went into effect the following year, was an expansion of a 2004 voter-approved constitutional amendment that authorized slot machines at seven existing horse and dog tracks and jai-alai frontons in Broward and Miami-Dade counties. The 2009 change allowed a Hialeah track, which wasn’t operating at the time the amendment was approved, to also operate the lucrative slots. The law in question consists of three claus-
es, including one that deals with counties outside of Broward and Miami-Dade. State regulators last year denied the Gretna racetrack a slots license, arguing the Department of Business and Professional Regulation was “not authorized to issue a slot machine license to a pari-mutuel facility in a county which … holds a countywide referendum to approve such machines, absent a statutory or constitutional provision enacted after July 1, 2010, authorizing such a referendum.” The agency justified its decision with a non-binding opinion by Bondi. Lawyers for Gretna argued the statute does not include the word “enacted,” and other counties do not need prior authorization from the Legislature to get the requisite voter approval for slots. But, in Friday’s ruling, Makar wrote that Bondi’s interpretation of the law was “spot on.” “The alternative view, which would restructure the statute and change its meaning to allow slot machines to be Makar deployed on a statewide basis without any clear authority to do so, is inconsistent with principles of statutory and constitutional construction, legislative intent, and the history of laws prohibiting slot machines in the State of Florida,” he wrote. Makar also raised the question of whether the Legislature has the authority to approve slot machines outside of Broward and Miami-Dade counties, based on a previous Florida Supreme Court ruling in a case known as “Greater Loretta.” That opinion, which dealt with an interpretation of Florida’s 1968 Constitution, found that “all other lotteries — including bolito, cuba, slot machines, etc., are prohibited.” Makar asked the Supreme Court for guidance. “So which is it? Are slot machines a form of lottery that only the people may approve via constitutional amendment? Or are slot machines not prohibited as lotteries under (the state Constitution’s) article X, section 7, which may be legislatively authorized statewide without constitutional authority?” Makar wrote.

50 years ago this week
Suspended detectives returned to work by Civil Service Board
Have you ever wondered what life was like in Jacksonville half a century ago? It was a different era of history, culture and politics but there are often parallels between the kind of stories that made headlines then and today. As interesting as the differences may be, so are the similarities. These are some of the top stories from this week in 1965. The items were compiled from the Jacksonville Public Library’s periodical archives by Staff Writer Max Marbut.
Four Duval County detectives who were near the end of a sixweek suspension handed down by Sheriff Dale Carson — who also recommended they be fired — were restored to their jobs after a two-day hearing before the Civil Service Board. The board ruled that Lt. R.O. Headen and Sgts. C.L. Cody, Donald Coleman and Claude West be reinstated with back pay. However, the five-member panel upheld Carson’s 30-day suspension of the officers which started Aug. 27 on grounds they violated internal rules and regulations of the department. The men filed an appeal of Carson’s action, which followed an investigation of whether there was a violation of security policy resulting from distribution of a document. The papers, notes concerning the internal investigation of the four officers, were written by Sheriff’s Office clerk John Keane. The document was copied and the copies distributed throughout the detective division. The four pages of handwritten notes were taken from a briefcase in a restricted area of the sheriff’s office. Keane contended the document was his personal property and represented notes he made to refresh his memory during a departmental interview he was anticipating. The interview, he said, was to be one of many conducted by the sheriff’s research and planning committee. Keane said he put the notes in a briefcase and then put it on top of a filing cabinet in his office in the identification section, a restricted area. Keane said he didn’t know the notes had been disturbed until a confrontation with Coleman. Coleman threatened to sue Keane for libel if anyone was suspended because of the papers, which contained statements about Coleman and other officers, Keane testified. Another department employee, Donald Tilley, told the board he took the notes from Keane’s briefcase and then made a photocopy which he gave to Coleman. For his part in the incident, Tilley was suspended for 30 days. The investigation came to a head when Headen was asked by Carson and Duval County Patrol Chief William Johnston to give a statement telling what he knew about the papers. They said Headen refused to
comment on several of their questions, denied any knowledge of the papers and said he would not sign a statement.
Carson said he was surprised by Headen’s lack of cooperation and failure, as a ranking officer, to take the papers to his superiors for any appropriate action. Carson and Johnston said they were surprised when, during an interview, Cody said he saw “a dark cloud over Duval County” and that Carson “should pack his bags and get out of town.” West was dismissed for a similar threat — that any suspension following the investigation would “blow the roof off the top of the sheriff’s office.” During testimony, West said he meant he would appeal to the Civil Service Board if any action were taken against him. He said he felt he was being unjustly investigated and that someone was out to get him. Cody testified that Carson asked his advice on how to remedy certain undesirable situations in the sheriff’s office. “I think the best thing for you to do is to pack your bags and leave Duval County,” Cody said he told the sheriff, maintaining he was simply giving Carson honest advice upon request. In his closing statement to the board, sheriff’s office attorney Donald Bruce contended the distribution of Keane’s notes disrupted the operation of the organization, thus violating departmental rules and regulations. He argued Carson showed just cause in suspending the appellants and recommending their permanent dismissal because of uncooperativeness and threats during the investigation. Tom McKee, attorney for the officers, said his clients acted with good intentions when they distributed copies of the notes. He also said the “whole matter was blown out of proportion” by the sheriff’s office, putting his clients in a situation not created by them. • The City Commission adopted and sent to City Council for its approval a $68 million general fund budget for 1966 that included $14 million for sewer system improvements. It was described
as “the first major step in recent years to fight river pollution.” Commissioner of Highways and Sewers Henry Broadstreet said the projects planned in the budget would eliminate 25-35 percent of the raw sewage flowing daily into the St. Johns River. As an example, he said outfall lines would be built in the river to remove 1.5 million gallons a day draining into the river from McCoys and Willowbranch creeks alone. The outfall lines would carry the sewage north to the city’s sewage treatment plant on Talleyrand Avenue near 14th Street, Broadstreet said. In addition, an interceptor line would be placed in McCoys Creek to pick up industrial wastes along that route and deliver the captured contaminants to the treatment plant. The commission’s budget, when combined with the council’s proposed spending plan for 1966 totaled $126 million. Property taxes were expected to produce about $1.1 million in additional revenue compared to the 1965 budget without an increase in the 20.3 mill city tax rate. City Tax Assessor W.F. Wilson said property values within the city limits were up about 20 percent compared to 1964 valuations.
• Carter Nice was appointed concertmaster and assistant conductor of the Orlando-based Florida Symphony Orchestra. Nice, 25, succeeded Patricio Salvatierra, the Chilean concertmaster who was unable to renew his passport for entry into the United States for the 1965 season, according to Henry Mazer, symphony director. The new concertmaster’s father was C. Carter Nice, conductor of Jacksonville’s Starlight Symphonette. • David Plaster, a Jacksonville firefighter who went into a deadly, fume-choked sewer manhole to rescue two city employees, was named Florida’s first “Fireman of the Year.” Plaster, 29, was presented a plaque citing his service beyond the call of duty by State Treasurer and Fire Marshal Broward Williams in Tallahassee as part of the observance of Fire Prevention Week. • The state Parks Service announced that $8,600 was appropriated for improvements at Little Talbot Island State Park. Picnic tables and grills would be installed at the campsite area, water and electric lines would be installed for the 60 sites, a snake fence would be constructed and roads would be paved. • This week in 1965, President Lyndon Johnson declared the U.S. would be a safe haven for Cubans who wanted to flee the Communist country 90 miles south of Key West. Gov. Haydon Burns, former mayor of Jacksonville, said if the federal government was going to allow thousands of Cuban refugees to enter the country, they must be dispersed nationwide to prevent economic havoc in Flor-
ida. “This avalanche of refugees thrust on Miami would play economic havoc there and all over South Florida,” Burns said. In a letter to Johnson, Burns asked the government to establish a “specific dispersal policy,” including that refugees be sent to temporary housing outside South Florida. He also asked the government to be prepared to send the refugees back to Cuba when they could return under a democratic form of government.
• Joseph Crescimbeni, professor in Jacksonville University’s Division of Education, wrote two articles that were published in the October issues of professional journals. They were “To Enrich Mathematical Enquiry,” published in The Instructor; and “What is Teaching?,” published in Education magazine. • A 12-block-long parade Downtown kicked off the 1965 campaign for the United Fund and underscored the services rendered by the 44 agencies affiliated with the fund.
Floats of all sizes, including a few pulled by toddlers, voiced a plea for support of the effort to raise $1.7 million in funds. The parade was led by the Jacksonville Naval Air Station Band, followed by eight high school marching bands, set the tempo for the display that started and ended at the Civic Auditorium. • Jacksonville’s Community Television station, WJCT, was in line for about $500,000 in grants from the Ford Foundation. The ultimate amount would be determined by the level of public financial support for Channel 7, said Fred Rebman, general manager. He said the foundation would make matching grants from $50,000 to $500,000 in each of the next four years and that $10 million was set aside for the program. For each $1 a station received from the public by Jan. 1, the foundation would contribute 75 cents. Rebman said based on collections received in the first nine months of 1965, he expected to receive at least $50,000 in private contributions before the deadline.
