Good morning,

Congratulations to former Jacksonville Jaguars Tony Boselli, who by the time you read this Sunday will have been inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. (I'm writing this a few days earlier.)

Columnist Gene Frenette talked to Boselli and his family before the big night for this column, For Jaguars legend Tony Boselli, getting into Pro Football Hall of Fame a long time coming

Other big news this week included the hundreds of lawsuits filed against prominent orthopedic surgeon Dr. Richard David Heekin, his clinic and St. Vincent's Riverside Hospital.

Reporter Katherine Lewin has been looking into this issue and we'll bring you more soon.

Reporter Emily Bloch dug through some records to show who's going and coming in the top spots at local schools.

In all, 16 Duval County principals were reassigned. Emily provides details about each one, including where outgoing principals are heading next.

Also, this week, Emily published the teacher vacancy list by school. Take a look to see how many teachers your child's school is short right now.

Reporter Teresa Stepzinski gives us an update on the RiversEdge: Life on the St. Johns megaproject.

Located on the Southbank of the St. Johns River, a variation of the project has been in the works for about eight years and has gone through a couple name changes, but when it's done it should include residences, a hotel, retail, marina and public park space.

Finally, Teresa tells us that Beach Road Fish House & Chicken Dinners will soon relocate to make way for luxury apartments.

Beach Road Chicken Dinners, the original name, has been around since the late 1930s. A few years ago, new owners took it over, changed the name and expanded the menu.

Now the new owners are selling the land, but they plan to move the restaurant to a new location, Teresa reports.

Have a great week,

Mary Kelli Palka
