Apply now for Passports


Planning overseas travel and
need a passport? Richard Weiss,
Clerk of the Circuit Court has
some advice. Apply now, and be
prepared for a lengthy wait.
Weiss stated that passport ap-
plications are at an all-time high
volume as a result of new rules
requiring passports for Ameri-
cans traveling to Canada, Mexi-
co, Central and South America,
the Caribbean and Bermuda.
The wait for passports has more
than doubled as a result of the
new rules. Regular application
processing could take as long
as 18 weeks, and expedited pro-


cessing may take up to 8 weeks.
Through Sept. 30, 2007, U.S.
citizens traveling to Canada,
Mexico, the Caribbean and Ber-
muda only, who have applied
but not received their passport,
can enter or depart from the
United States by air with a gov-
ernment issued photo identifica-
tion (driver's license or military
ID) and proof that they have ap-
plied for a passport.
To obtain proof, go to http://
travel.state.gov/passport/get/sta-
tus/status_2567.html, follow the
instructions and print out the


confirmation document which
will serve as official proof of a
pending passport application.
Travelers must still meet entry
requirements of the country
they are visiting; if the country
requires visitors to have pass-
ports, proof of application will
not be sufficient. Information
on international entry require-
ments is available at http://travel.
state.gov/travel/tips/brochures/
brochures 1229.html#a.
Weiss encourages travelers
to apply early to assure they will
have a valid passport. "To avoid

Operation Sea-0-Pea unveils


a web of crime and terror


"It all started with a traf-
fic stop on Thursday, Sept 28,
2006," said Sheriff Grady Judd.
"What we have discovered
since then is aweb of crime and
terror. And in the center of that
web we found Angilo Freeland,
an assassin for an international
drug trafficking organization."
On Thursday, June 14, 2007,
Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd,
and PCSO detectives, revealed
the current status of the on-
going investigation into Angilo
Freeland's drug history and it's
ties to Florida.
Sheriff Judd was joined by a
multi-agency task force that in-
cluded representatives from the
Lakeland Police Department,
Orange County Sheriffs Office,
Hernando County Sheriffs Of-
fice, Hillsborough County Sher-


iffs Office, the Orlando Metro-
politan Bureau of Investigations
(MBI), U.S. Drug Enforcement
Administration (DEA, Orlando
and Tampa), U.S. Attorney's
Office, Immigration and Cus-
toms Enforcement (I.C.E.), and
the Florida Department of Law
Enforcement (FDLE),
Operation Sea-O-Pea (a play
on the word COP, and similar to
DiOGi, slain Deputy Matt Wil-
liams' K-9 partner) began in
the days following Deputy Wil-
liams' murder.
On Sept. 29, 2006, members
of the multi-agency SWAT team
that had assembled to assist
with the search for the sus-
pect, located the shooter. That
shooter was Angilo Freeland.
Evidence recovered from the
crime scene, and at a Lakeland


home in which Freeland once
resided, revealed a portion of
his criminal history.
On Oct. 4, 2006, representa-
tives from a number of local,
state and federal agencies met
at the PCSO Bureau of Criminal
Investigations Command head-
quarters where a multi-agency
task force was formed. The task
force began investigating all the
identities of Angilo Freeland's
associates. Later that day, at a
residence in which Freeland
once resided, detectives seized
a SKS Assault Rifle, an AK 47 As-
sault Rifle and a Bersa handgun
belonging to Freeland.
Oct. 5, 2006, detectives
seized 3 3 kilograms of cocaine
in a welded metal container all

ing a traffic stop. The deceased shooter has since been linked

on preparing firefighters and EMS
personnel for their daily duties by
reviewing their training and the
proper use of equipment to en-
sure safe response, mitigation and
return from all emergency situa-
tions. Failure to remain cautious
can cause routine activities to
become hazardous, as has been
shown in the many fire service
and emergency medical service
line-of-duty deaths and injuries.
In 2006, 105 firefighters died in
the line of duty; already this year,
26 have been lost. The purpose of
the Stand Down is to reduce these
deaths and injuries by calling at-
tention to safety practices and
improving them. Stand downs
have. been used by the military
for years to correct issues that
have been identified as a problem
throughout the ranks.

FEMA will deliver


supplemental funding


Federal assistance
available from
2005 hurricanes
WASHINGTON Under
legislation signed by President
Bush, the U.S. Department of
Homeland Security's Federal
Emergency Management Agen-
cy (FEMA) will deliver addition-
al federal disaster assistance to
supplement state and local re-
covery efforts impacted by the
2005 hurricane season. The bill
allows for additional funding
to states specifically under the
Agency's Public Assistance and
Other Needs Assistance pro-
grams.
The increase in federal assis-
tance is being made available
to Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi,
Florida and Alabama to cover
costs in connection with hur-
ricanes Katrina, Wilma, Dennis
and Rita.
"FEMA remains committed
to assisting in the recovery of
these states hardest hit by the
hurricanes," said FEMA Admin-
istrator David Paulison. "This
supplemental funding provides
the agency a greater ability to
continue to reduce the burden
on the affected communities."
The increased federal assis-
tance was authorized on May
25, 2007, when the President
signed H.R. 2206, "U.S. Troop
Readiness, Veterans' Care, Ka-
trina Recovery, and Iraq Ac-
countability Appropriations Act
of 2007" (Public Law #110-28).
Under FEMA's Public As-
sistance Program, the federal
share of eligible projects to re-


build infrastructure and replace
critical assets is set at a mini-
mum 75 percent federal fund-
ing, with state and local govern-
ments providing the additional
25 percent. Following certain
extreme situations where state
and local hardships necessitate,
the cost-share has been amend-
ed to 90 percent federal funding
with a 10 percent state and local
match. This recent provision re-
quires the federal government
to cover 100 percent for all eli-
gible projects under the Public
Assistance Program for the des-
ignated disasters.
FEMA is in the process of
coordinating the adjustment to
each project for all eligible di-
sasters. This will be a seamless
process for the impacted states,
requiring no additional work on
their part.
For FEMA's Other Needs As-
sistance program, under which
additional aid is provided to
individuals and households im-
pacted by disasters, the state is
required, by law, to provide 25
percent of the costs. The recent
legislation also requires the
federal government to pay 100
percent of those costs for these
specific disasters. FEMA will be
reimbursing eligible states for
the cost share of the program
already paid to FEMA, and any
outstanding bills related to these
events will be canceled.
FEMA coordinates the federal
government's role in preparing
for, preventing, mitigating the
effects of, responding to, and
recovering from all domestic di-
sasters, whether natural or man-
made, including acts of terror.


HBS announces new board member


LAKE WALES, Fla. Historic

Byron Wilcox awarded posthumously degree


LAKELAND, Fla. Southeast-
ern University has posthumously
awarded a bachelor's degree on
June 15 to a highly regarded vo-
cational educator who was just
shy of graduating from one of
Southeastern's adult degree com-
pletion programs.
Byron C. Wilcox, 55, would
have received his bachelor's
degree in business and profes-
sional leadership this month, but
his family, the vocational school
where he taught, and fellow Divi-
sion of Continuing and Adult Ed-
ucation students at Southeastern
lost Wilcox to pancreatic cancer
on May 11.
"Awarding a degree posthu-
mously is simply a compassion-
ate...way of recognizing the
achievements of a person's life,
and, at the same time, of help-
ing a grieving family and church
community to mourn the loss of
a dear member," said Robert Her-


ron, Southeastern's vice president
for academic affairs.
Wilcox, a Lake Wales native,
served as construction program
director at Luster All Training
Center of Hope in Bartow. The
training center is part of Luster
All Pastoral Care and Cultural
Center, which provides training
in life skills for at-risk teens and
adults. Wilcbox also ran his own
firm, B.C. Wilcpx Costruction in
Lakeland.
Wilcox would work without
pay if he saw a need, said Wil-
cox's wife, Antionette.
Wilcox transferred into South-
eastern's adult degree comple-
tion program in Business and
Professional Leadership in 2005.
He sought a bachelor's degree
to expand B.C. Wilcox Construc-
tion, the firm he ran for 15 years.
Wilcox planned to finish his last
six credits this summer when he
was diagnosed with cancer at the


end of April; he died three weeks
later.
Southeastern officials said Wil-
cox was an exemplary student
within Southeastern's Division of
Continuing and Adult Education.
"He was what adult education
is all about," said Richard Harris,
associate director of the Division
of Continuing and Adult Educa-
tion. "Here was a man who was
successful as a leader in his com-
munity and his church...He was
a successful educator, skilled in
his trade, who decided he could
do better helping others if he
came back to school and finished
his formal education."
Wilcox has been recognized
for his success in the classroom
by Polk County and the Florida
Council on Economic Education.
Antionette Wilcox appreciates
the awarding of the degree to her
late husband. "That's a great hon-
or that shows that Southeastern


really cares," she said. She hopes
her husband's life will provide a
pathway for people who are try-
ing to figure out what to do, let-
ting them know: you can make it;
you just have to try.
The degree will be awarded
to Wilcox's family in Bush Cha-
pel at Southeastern University,
1000 Longfellow Blvd. in Lake-
land during summer commence-
ment. Commencement begins at
6 p.m.

sity:
