Director steps down

GULF BREEZE, Fla. - Brice Harris, director of the Andrews Institute's space-tourism program, resigned Tuesday in the wake of accusations he used his state job to get the position. Gov. Charlie Crist is seeking an Ethics Commission inquiry into Harris' role in developing the institute's contract for Project Odyssey, designed to get tourists ready to launch into orbit.
