Citizens says market is improving, but rates need to go up.

Jimmy Patronis acknowledges interest in running for governor on the Deeper Dive with Dara Kam podcast.

Check out what is happening in the coming week in Florida government and politics.

How about those 4-0 Northwestern Wildcats.

Sign of the times: St. Johns River State College website has a notice saying wifi hotspots are being installed in three campus parking lots. "In an effort to maintain social distancing, STUDENTS MUST REMAIN IN THEIR VEHICLES," the notice says.

Good to start the new year by seeing @newsservicefla stories on the front pages in Orlando, Jacksonville, Pensacola and Brevard County.

Writing about the DCD yesterday made me think of Jim King. One of the entertaining parts of covering King is that he would literally pause in the middle of interviews to try to tee up clever quotes. I think he was as amused as the reporters were.

Get ready for a whirlwind week at the Capitol. Budget proposals, House health care plans and Amendment 4 are just a few of the big issues teed up.

Get ready for the second week of session. Smokable pot could pass, a fracking fight continues, and the House keeps looking at a parade of local projects.

Good work today in the Gainesville Sun on political consultants and committees. It shows why it has become virtually impossible to track large chunks of money bouncing between committees.

@AndyShain I must admit the Akron game was like a bad flashback. But today was pretty amazing.

@JSaundersnews Remember when 4 wins in a season was a big deal?

How about those Northwestern Wildcats.

@AndyShain @timcpearson @thedailynu @llednicer And Shain played a mean game of Nerf hoops. He could jump out of the gym.

@AndyShain @thedailynu @llednicer Looks like Andy and I both had a little bit darker hair a "few" years ago.

I took off from Sweet Home Iowa on Sunday and thought I had left the snow behind. It's a bizarre sight in Tallahassee.

I was feeling pretty good about the Big Ten bowl performance. But that pales in comparison to the SEC/BCS championship.

Who cares about the dismal FSU and UF seasons? Northwestern 39, Michigan State 31 in three overtimes.
