City's 10Oth Relay for Life this weekend Cancer fundraiser getting close to $250,000 in contributions By JAMES COULTER and BRIAN ACKLEY BACKLEY @ HEARTLANDNEWSPAPERS.COM More teams, more fun, and the number one goal, more money for cancer research. Expect it all this weekend as Frostproof celebrates its 10th American Cancer Society Relay for Life, starting at 6 p.m. at the Wall Street Play Park. This year's chairman, Sandy Sackett, said that Frostproof has raised nearly $250,000 over the first nine years, and hopes that with this year's event, that milestone number will be passed. "We're really hoping to go big this year," she said. There are all kinds of reasons to visit and be part of the com- munity event. There is lots of food for sale, including several teams that will be selling break- fast on Saturday morning, there's a DJ that will be on hand to keep things moving all night long, and even a special Zumba event scheduled for midnight Saturday morning, a sunrise service Saturday and a fun corn hole event. "We have something going all night long. We have a full schedule," she added, "and it's supposed to be good weather. We're all very, very excited that it's finally here." Sackett said her involvement comes from not only knowing people who have had cancer, but her hope for a cure as well. "It's pretty much as everyone's story We've all lost friends and relatives to cancer," she said. "My big motivation are my daughters. RELAY16 FILE PHOTO Each year, the Relay for Life is kicked off by the special "Survivor's Lap,' honoring those who have defeated cancer.

High School seeking students from Frostproof Charter school also recruiting in Dundee, Winter Haven ByCASSIEJACOBY CJACOBY @HEARTLANDNEWSPAPERS.COM Turning Blue Devils and Bulldogs into Highlanders. That's the dream of Lake Wales High School as it expands its recruitment efforts to neighboring communities. "We're happy to announce plans to expand bus service to include Frostproof, Dundee and downtown Winter Haven," said Daniele Shick, LWHS assistant principal. "We already have more than 100 students from Winter Haven and hope to accommodate the increasing desire of other area students who wish to attend our school." Shick pointed to a wide range of core classes, electives, Career Academies, an International Baccalaureate Program, after- school activities and sports that add to the desirability of LWHS. Principal Donna Dunson said there's another reason parents Play ball! Frostproof resident has special By GEORGE FRANECEVICH NEWS CORRESPONDENT In the stands, friends and relatives are holding their breath. You're on the mound, you can hardly breathe, your heart is pound- ing, sweat dripping off your brow, you're getting ready to pitch fastballs to such baseball greats as Otis Nixon, Marquis Grissom, Javy Lopez and David Justice, men that for years have been your heroes. For most baseball fans this would only be a daydream, but for Chris Edwards of Frostproof, this Major League Experience became a reality when he attended the Atlanta Braves Fantasy Camp at ESPN's Wide World of Sports complex in Kissimmee this winter. In all, 66 fans ranging in age from 25 to the mid 70s, made the journey from as far north as Canada and as far west as California to participate in this five-day dream. The first day was spent with the campers checking into their accom- modations at theWyndham Bonnett Creek Resort, and an orientation where the staff let them know what to expect during their stay. Next was the welcome night party where they met not only their fellow and students might consider her school. "I think the biggest draw is the teaching staff," added Donna Dunson, LWHS principal: "We have worked in the past year and a half to hire teachers who have high expectations and keep the future of each student clearly in mind as they design a program for them.

He also appreciates his clients and those involved in helping make his vision become a reality. "I am truly blessed to call Lake Wales home." In their rush to distance themselves from the scandal involving former Lt. Gov. Jennifer Carroll and the ballyhooed bust of alleged Internet cafe scam artists, Florida legislators seem poised to shut down any other type of amusement center that is vaguely similar. They are going overboard. As far as we can tell, the Internet cafes that proliferate in strip malls throughout our region (but not Polk County) do nothing more than provide a little afternoon's fun and excitement for the Social Security set. Do they seem tacky? Sure. Is it possible gambling addicts will drop the mortgage payment into a slot machine? It is. With the help of our crusading Sheriff Grady Judd, Polk County has discouraged and all but eliminated anything remotely resembling non- state sanctioned gambling. But, come on, let's not pretend to be so prissy when it comes to gambling. The state-sponsored lottery is everywhere. Or sports betting? How's your bracket? Casinos? Interstate billboards entice the Our Viewpoint gaming-minded. Large groups of retirees take bus trips to Tampa or Immokalee. A gambling ship leaves regularly from Fort Myers Beach. "Fun and games on the Big M.Casino," as-the website says. No, this isn't really about gambling. It's about scandal and the desire for elected officials some of whom accepted campaign funds from gambling companies to distance themselves from the appearance of sleaze. Early this month, federal and state law enforce- ment officers attested 57 operators of Internet cafes affiliated with a group called Allied Veterans of the World. Under the guise of helping a charity, Allied Veterans supposedly took in profits of $300 million since 2007 and paid out only 2 percent. It soon came out that Carroll had worked as a consultant for the company while she was in the Legislature. She quickly stepped down from her post as lieutenant governor. In the aftermath, ban bills began sliding through the Legislature. Recently, the House passed a bill that would effectively put all the Internet cafes out of business. The legislation would make any type of slot machine illegal. It would prohibit gift cards - a common form of payoff at the strip-mall casinos. It would prevent patrons from accumulating points from games over time and would limit cash prizes to 75 cents per game. Bingo. We have to admit we're not huge fans of Internet cafes. They are a bit unseemly. But many people enjoy them. For some, it's a good afternoons entertainment, like going to the track or playing a game of bingo at the clubhouse. It seems harmless enough. The Allied Veterans of the World allegedly en- gaged in fraud. That's against the law. We really don't see why all Internet cafes should suffer from a broader association with a fraudulent business. Regulate them a little more. Tax them. Whatever. But don't shut them all down just to scrub your hands of the taint of scandal. Emotions not fact, drive gun-law debate When I was in the service, the camp theater used to show stirring, heroic World War II or Korean War movies once a week. We scoffed at "John Wayne night" but went anyway mostly to chuckle at little errors in the films. One had a scene with a guy firing a Browning Automatic Rifle for about a full minute (which would be a neat trick) and then holding it on his shoul- der by the barrel, like a baseball bat, as he pondered the nature .of life, death and the universe. We wondered if they peeled the actor's melted skin off the white-hot barrel of the BAR, after that scene. More than 40 years after leaving the Marine Corps, I don't know much about guns. But I've watched a lot of politi- cians campaigning and a lot of legisla- tors debating tragic topics. I know when they're letting their hopes overrule their heads on heart-tugging topics like drunk driving or child abuse. There isn't much of a gun debate in Tallahassee compared to what we see in Congress and some other states. There are a couple of bills to require universal background checks for all gun sales, but they have no chance of passage, even Though a Quinnipiac University Poll last week said nine out of 10 Floridians like the idea. Legislators will also talk about the 2005 "Stand Your Ground" law, allow- ing use of deadly force in self-defense. Nothing much is expected to change. Many citizens reacting to the mass murders in Newtown, Conn., Aurora, Co., and Tucson or yearning to curb Bill Cotterell the daily toll of domestic violence or gang shootings all over the country - have gone to their legislators with excellent intentions. But emotion overwhelms the logic of their ideas. President Obama, Sen. Diane Feinstein, D-Calif., and other Democrats say the grieving parents of Newtown "deserve a vote" on an assault-weapons ban. But Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., blocked it from the Senate floor last week for a shrewd political reason he doesn't want five or six Democratic senators in "red" states defeated next year, if the Senate passes a gun bill and sends it to certain death in the House. The trouble with banning assault weapons, but not regular rifles, is that it contradicts Isaac Newton. He's the physicist who came up with all that stuff about bodies in motion obeying natural laws of force and momentum. A gun is a machine that accelerates a small ounce of lead from zero to about 2,500 feet per second. Once the projec- tile leaves the muzzle, it doesn't matter COTTRELLI5 "/- A INATION ATTEMPT ON PRES-E51Ol RE45AN MAR.CH 30,1981 Here's what we really want from our government The Legislature is in session, bus- fly carrying out the wishes of Special Interests Inc., and Gov. Rick Scott is moving toward the middle. But that's a mere canard, as any left-winger con- spiracy theorist knows. Scott just wants to dupe the middle- of-the-road folks into re-electing him next year, at which point he will promptly revert to Oscar the Grouch mode, dispossessing orphans and wid- ows, paving the Everglades and banning Medicaid to make Florida even more "business friendly." If the Legislature and Scott really wanted to help the working men and women, its members would get busy passing a bunch of laws that would improve our quality of life.

Dunson also described how private funding has paid for six academic coaches, local college students who concentrate on math instruction and a massive tutoring program along with one who is the students' researcher for college. She detailed another major improve- ment in falling rates of discipline issues. "In many cases, the rate has fallen more than 65 to 75 percent," Dunson added."Fights are a rarity at the high school. I attribute much of the change to students who want to create a better community; a community that is focused on their future and not focused on filing another discipline referral. We still have issues, but we have a staff and student body who believe they deserve a better environment in which to learn. A group of 60 students who serve on the Principal's Council helped design the Highlander Code of Civility." Online registration and numerous meetings to accommodate a family's busy schedule will make it extremely easy for parents to register their child for LWHS.

Banning a device because of its silhouette may feel good but does not make us safer. Similarly, Gov. Andrew Cuomo of New York is retooling a ban on ammunition magazines holding more than seven bullets. But nobody makes a seven- round magazine. Or maybe somebody does. They're not real sure but, never mind, they just really wanted to pass a law.

The debate has spotlighted a childlike faith in gun control on the part of the news media. There probably aren't many NRA members at the New York Times, for instance. After Cuomo's news conference, the paper's Albany bureau last week reported that "seven-round magazines are not widely manufactured." But the They should pass another disclosure law and require that stores post it prominently fo.r all the idiots to see when they line up to buy Florida Lottery tickets.

If lawmakers really were on our side, they would pass legislation to make convenience stores and coffee shops for those of us now forced to wait in line behind dipsticks who deliberate at length over whether they want some beef jerky along with their lattes. All stores should have to post signs above each cashier line: "Decided" or "Undecided." Here's a law that citizens would unanimously enact in a constitutional amendment: "No clerk shall make a customer wait to make a purchase while said clerk answers the telephone."

So you really have no practical option." So which is it? "Not widely manufactured," or "doesn't exist?" Like those Hollywood filmmakers who knew little of guns, like reporters who aren't clear on the concept of "no such thing," some well- meaning legislators don't let facts get in the way of feeling virtuous.

Words of Comfort Recall it as often you wish, a happy memory never wears out. -Libbie Fudim April 3, 2013 Page 6 Frostproof News April 3, 2013 Frostproof News Page 7 BALL FROM PAGE 1 "sooo nice! And being out on the field in that uniform was everything I could ever hope for." Next came a hearty buffet breakfast, then onto the field so each camper could participate in five different position drills (outfield, infield, catching, pitching and hitting), to determine their skill level. Following lunch there was a skills evaluation of the campers who were then divided into six teams of 11 players. Each team would engage in daily skills training sessions with the Braves' veteran players and coaches. Edwards was on team #1 with coaches Marvin Freeman and Javy Lopez. It was at this time that Freeman notified Edwards that he was the Atlanta Braves "newest number one draft pick". 'An almost surreal experience", Edwards proudly recalls. In addition to the skills training, each of the six teams would play six games. On the last day of camp, Sunday, each team would play one inning against the A team made up of the all-star cast members aka the Legends. The campers teams would be known simply as the All Stars. "Everything possible was done to make the Major League experience as realistic as possible," said Edwards explaining that "the clubhouse service which cleaned their uniforms daily in addition to all the other clubhouse services was big league from start to finish. We were treated just like real Major League players. The training staff and coaches did their best to take care of the campers just as if they were million dollar players that the team couldn't do without." Edwards recalled a first-day injury "where his calf cramped up and he couldn't push off the pitching mound," They took him out of that game, telling him "this is your first day, you don't need to aggravate that injury You paid too much to miss out on the rest of this experience.". The training staff iced his leg and gave him some medicine and he was OK within an hour. As a precaution, however, they still kept him out of the rest of that first game. "It's important that you have your own insurance in case of a serious injury such. as a broken bone, because while the train- ing staff can handle minor injuries such as pulled muscles and sprains, major injuries must be treated in'the hospital and are the camper's responsibility," he noted. Edwards lauded the all-star cast noting just how helpful and approachable they were, "just the nicest bunch of people you could ever meet." He also recalled how each coach took four campers for a golf outing where they were able to socialize and" pick their brains not only about baseball, they would answer questions about most anything." Other highlights included things like Kangaroo Court, where campers and even members of the all-star cast are called before a mock court, tried and fined for certain violations that might be considered disrespecting a major league uniform, (such as missing a belt loop or one of the campers strong odor of Bengay). It was all in good fun. Because Justice was one of his boyhood baseball heroes, his talk was especially meaningful to Edwards. "He seemed sincere in everything he said. Just as much as the campers enjoyed meeting him, he enjoyed meeting and talking to them," Edwards added. The Major League Experience didn't end when the camp closed. All campers are invited to a camp reunion party at 2013 Braves home game in Atlanta and each camper is allowed one guest.

"After an extremely thorough market investigation, these programs were identified as meeting the real-time response to employer needs, and are in-line with the recommendations of the Board of Governor's Commission on Higher Education Access & Attainment," said Ghazi Darkazalli, vice president of Academic Affairs for Florida Poly. "The introduction of these programs and academic goals is the culmination of extensive efforts that have taken place over the last several months." This happened despite of problems with the new school that is going on in Tallahassee where the state Senate last week took out millions in funds for the school and a contentious Board of Governors meeting last Thursday. Question over the whether the state can afford a 12th state university is coming into question. Polytech Chief Operating Officer Ava Parker and board of governors member Mori Hosseini exchanged words in the meeting. She said the statute of the new school has been thrown her way and you have to follow it. Hosseini said, "No, I didn't say that. I said it's not for us to decide if we like Wet PHOTO PROVIDED Famed architect Santiago Calatrava designed the concept for the Florida Polytech buildings in Lakeland. The school anticipates opening its doors in hte summer of 2014. it or not. It's not our job to decide on what the legislature and the governor did ... we're over that." The bottom line was whether the campus was to open at the scheduled time and whether it will attract the kind of students it is seeking. Other state schools have programs already being used and have been successful. But Polytech continues to develop whatever it can, despite the fact that $25 million has been striped from the Senate's proposed budget. Within each of the proposed degree programs it came out with last week, there are opportunities for students to specialize in certain fields of concentration. "We want to provide students with the education that they need to meet the demands of global economic trends and Florida's evolving industry land- scape," said Darkazalli. "The objective is to have 75 percent of students placed in full-time jobs by the time they graduate." In addition to the strong focus on science, technology, engineering and math courses, the proposed degrees incorporate mandatory leadership, finance and management training into all programs. "Our goal is to produce students who not only are capable of meeting the demands of STEM-related employers, but who are also capable of creating that demand themselves," said Board Chairman Rob Gidel. "We want our graduates to have the tools to manage the business of STEM." Florida Poly's first students are expected to begin courses by August 2014, and the student recruitment strategy is already under way. The Committee proposed agree- ments with STEM charter and magnet schools to serve as feeders to Florida Poly. The University will also collaborate with state colleges to implement feeder programs for stu- dents looking to transition to Florida Poly after obtaining an associate's degree. SOther strategies include employ- ing a summer studies program for youth modeled after Duke's Talent Identification Program and recruiting international students from South America and Asia. At last Thursday's Board of Governors meeting member Elizabeth Webster said she doesn't think Polytech can compete. "Historically has that happened? Because coming from my perspective, I'd feel a little uneasy about taking that chance," she said. School officials said it can and it hopes to get students from community colleges. Will Weatherford, the Florida House Speaker, still is in favor of the school's creation. "We're not trying to re-invent the wheel... you can just bring in a partner to show you how it works," it was reported that he said Thursday. Child credit freeze back by subcommittee, Putnam Consumer reporting companies would be required to allow parents and guardians to pay $10 to open and freeze credit records for children under a measure (HB 493) unanimously backed Thursday by the House Insurance and Banking Committee. The freeze, already in place in Maryland, is intended to information. Agriculture Commissioner Adam Putnam applauded the subcommittee support for the bill that gives his agency power to Adam Putnam first impose a $500 fine on companies that fail to follow the law, if approved. "Over the past eight years, identity theft involving minors has increased three-fold," Putnam said in a release. "This bill will help prevent child identity theft by allowing parents and guardians to block thieves from using their child's personal information." The bill has one more stop, the House Regulatory Affairs Committee, before reaching the floor. The Senate companion (SB 566) is scheduled to go before the Senate Commerce and Tourism Committee on April 1. County Road 640 to temporarily close CSX Transportation has temporarily closed County Road 640 about one mile west of the intersection with County Road 555, near the Green Bay fertilizer plant southwest of Bartow, for repairs to a damaged rail crossing. Work should take most of the day to complete and will require a detour of all thru-traffic along County Road 640 between County Road 555 and State Road 37. The traveling public is advised to avoid area. Motorists are urged to exer- cise caution, be alert to detour signs and add extra time to trips through area. For information, call Bill Skelton with Polk County Transportation at 863-535-2200. Firefighters will be in the intersections Polk County Fire Rescue will take to the streets the first three Fridays in April to raise money for the Muscular Dystrophy Association through the Fill the Boot drive. For more than half a century, the International Association of Firefighters members have stood by the MDA, to make a difference in the lives of those affected by neuromuscu- lar diseases. The money raised in Polk County stays in the county to help fund program services, including free clinic visits; assistance with the purchase and repairs of wheelchairs, leg braces and communication devices; physical, occupational, and respiratory therapy consultations; support groups and summer camp for children. The money raised also helps fund several ongoing research projects in search of better treatments and a cure. The dates for the drives are April 5, 12 and 19 at these intersections: Old 37 and Main Street, Bradley Junction U.S. 27 and Alturas Babson Park Cutoff Road, Lake Wales State Road 92 and Combee Road, Lakeland Cypress Gardens Boulevard and Cypress Gardens Road, Winter Haven U.S. 98 And Clubhouse Road, Highland City State Road 60 and Buckmoore Road, Golfview U.S. 17 and Snively Avenue, Winter Haven South Florida Avenue and Pipkin Road, Lakeland State Road 559 and Intersection 4, Polk City U.S. 98 and Marcum Road, Lakeland U.S. 27 and Interstate 4, Davenport Bailey Road and Shepherd Road, Willow Oak U.S. 27 and Hwy 544, Lake Hamilton Cypress Parkway and Marigold Avenue, Poinciana For information visit, www.polkfire.net. Senate recommends $200,000 for Dozier Research The Florida Senate will set aside $200,000 to continue research at the site of the Dozier School for Boys, Sen. Kelli Stargel announced this week. Stargel, R-Lakeland, said the money would go to the University of South Florida, which has helped spearhead the investigation into the school in Marianna, which was closed in 2011. USF has used ground-penetrating radar and other methods to search for the remains of former residents of the reform school, which opened in 1900 and was the alleged site of brutality for years. "This funding is crucial to helping USF analyze the cemetery at the former school," Stargel said in a news release announcing the recommended funding. "This the right thing to do, so that we may provide some form of closure for the family members who tragically lost loved ones at this site." New restrictions allow for two days of watering a week As part of the Southwest Florida Water Management District's extended watering restrictions, Polk County Utilities water customers and those in unincorporated Polk County are allowed lawn and landscape watering from groundwater sources two days a week.

Page 8 Frostproof News April 3, 2013 School Board to discuss dress code violations By MARY CANNADAY MCANNADAY @ HEARTLANDNEWSPAPERS.COM "Pants on the ground, pants on the ground, looking' like a fool with your pants on the ground." The rap song called "Pants on the Ground" which brought national fame to "General" Larry Platt when he performed it on "American Idol," apparently struck a cord nationwide for its derision of wearing pants at mid-buttock. A video of Platt's on the TV show had 9,010,394 views on YouTube as of Friday morning. In spite of new Florida legislation and increased local penalties for those choosing to defy that part of the dress code, Polk County School Board member Kay Fields said at the March 19 board work session that she is once again "seeing too many baggy pants" among students. This sparked a discussion among board members and Interim Superintendent John Stewart about the need to possibly tighten up the dress code. The plan, requested by board member Hunt Berryman, is to have a special work session soon to discuss the issue. High school students are the fo- cus, because elementary and middle schools students wear uniforms, complete with belts. Conceivably, the high school students could end THE CURRENT CODE OF CONDUCT ADDRESSES BAGGY PANTS IN THIS FASHION: "Pants with belt loops shall be worn with a belt that is properly fastened. Pants shall be worn so that the waistband is worn at the waist and not below the waist. Section 1 paragraph(d) of subsection (2) of section s.1006.07, FloridaStatutes requires each district school board to adopt a dress code policy that prohibits a student, while on the grounds of a public school during the regular school day, from wearing clothing that exposes underwear or body parts in an indecent or vulgar manner or disrupts the orderly learning environment." a. For a first offense, a student shall be given a verbal warning and the school principal shall call the student's parent or guardian. b. For a second offense, the student is ineligible to participate in any extracurricular activity for a period of time not to exceed 5 days and the school principal shall meet with the student's parent or guardian. c. For a third or subsequent offense, a student shall receive an in-school suspension pursuant to s. 1003.01(5) for a period not to exceed 3 days, the student is ineligible to participate in any extracurricular activity for a period not to exceed 30 days, and the school principal shall call the student's parent or guardian and send the parent or guardian a written letter regarding the student's in-school suspension and ineligibility to participate in extracurricular activities.":' up with uniforms, which is what Lake Wales High School opted to do two years ago. There was some parent resistance at the time. Lake Wales principal Donna Dunson, who took over as principal in 2011, said that in uniformed schools she had led, such as Bok Academy Middle School, there was more of a sense of pride and unity, and the uniforms ended fashion competition. Polk board member Lori Cunningham, who lives in Lake Wales, said, "I've seen first-hand the difference a dress code can make in student attitude." Board chairperson Hazel Sellers said, "I believe we can have a strict dress code without going to uniforms." Berryman said he thinks they should review both options at the work session. Sellers and Stewart both said they think school administrators are trying to stay on top of the problem, but there are often more pressing matters to deal with.

The school district is going to consider the dress code changes that may involve the high schools switching to uniforms.

Idaho-based Economic Modeling Specialists, Intl., (EMSI), conducted the study as part of a broader examina- tion of the impact of the entire Florida College System. EMSI found that in 2011-12, the College had a total economic impact of $481.8 million. Of the College's total economic impact, $443 million is a direct result of increased earnings students and alumni receive because of their Polk State College education. The remainder of the College's economic impact is comprised of operational expenditures. The College's total impact equates to approximately 3.3 percent of Polk County's economy. "We are certainly very proud of this data," said Polk State President Eileen Holden. "Polk State truly impacts'the bottom line' of its commu- nity, adding over $480 million in annual income to the local economy, through the earnings of our graduates. That's a huge impact, and we expect that to grow in the coming decades." The release of the study elicited positive reaction from business leaders across the county. "This study quantifies what we've al- ways known that Polk State's impact reaches far beyond its campuses and classrooms," said S Steve Scruggs, president of the Lakeland Economic Development to create a pipeline of more highly trained workers, which is invaluable in attracting new businesses to the area. At the same time, having a quality, afford- able higher-education institution right here at home goes a long way in retain- ing talent in Polk County. Polk State is an invaluable resource in the economic development of our county." Winter Haven Economic Development Council Director David Petr added: "Polk State College is one of the best tools I have in my economic develop- ment toolbox. When speaking with business leaders interested in moving to our area, they demand a highly. , skilled workforce to fuel their business. The dedicated faculty and staff at Polk State have created the ideal setting for success, offering exceptionally qualified job candidates to our community every semester." The EMSI study also examined the College's return on investment, both for students and taxpayers, finding: For students, the return on their educational investment at Polk State is 17.3 percent. Put in another perspec- tive, the average Polk State student's IMPACT 12 Tops on the Test Polk State EMT Students Now Lead State on Exam Polk State's Emergency Medical Services Program is now No. 1 in the state in terms of students passing the emergency medical technician licens- ing exam. More than 90 percent of students passed the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT) exam between Jan. 1, 2012 and March 1, 2013, according to the Florida Department of Health. Statewide, the average pass rate was 65 percent. Polk State EMS (Emergency Medical Services) Director Don Guillette said the program has for years hovered near the top spot, but this is the first time since the state adopted the NREMT eight years ago that the College has ranked No. 1. Guillette attributed the performance to a number of factors. For one, about a year and a half ago, the program began using an electronic classroom performance system basically a set of handheld clickers - to gauge students' understanding of material. Instructors pose questions to their classes and, based on the answers students provide using their clickers, know if they need to cover anything in more detail.

Summer Registration Starts April 8 at Polk State Registration for summer classes at Polk State starts April 8. Students currently enrolled at the College may register for the summer term online through the College's Passport. Prospective new students should first submit an online application to the College at polk. edu. After doing so, they will be scheduled for an orientation session, during which they will register for their first classes. A complete, step=by-step guide to the ad- missions process is available at the College's website, under the "Admissions" tab. The guide provides students with information such as how to apply for financial aid, how to request transcripts, and when to schedule placement testing. The website also provides an online course catalog. Registration for dual-enrollment students those who are taking college classes while still in high school will begin April 15. Summer classes begin May 8 and end August 6. Summer classes are offered in six-, eight- and 12-week sessions. For start and end dates of each session, see the academic calendar at polk.edu. Polk State Theatre Presents 'All Shook Up' A landmark season for Polk State Theatre comes to its rollicking conclusion in April, with the staging of 'All Shook Up," a romantic musical told through Elvis Presley hits. It's a performance that will be fun and lighthearted, but for the actors, also intensely complicated and demanding. No matter, says Polk State Theatre Professor Paul Carbonell, his students are up to the challenge. They have been all year. "Musicals are a monumental effort. There are so many elements involved the dialogue, the sets, the. singing and dancing. In musicals, 'bigger is better' is the mantra; everything is spectacle driven," Carbonell said. "For the students, doing a musical at the end of the year is the culmination of everything they've learned all season. This is everything they've been working toward." A Season to Remember Polk State Theatre has enjoyed bustling growth in recent years, including a spike in the number of students applying for scholarships to study with the program; in 2011-12, 51 students applied, nearly quadruple the number in the year prior. The new talent the program is attracting, combined with the hiring of new faculty members, positioned Polk State Theatre to launch its most ambitious season ever in fall 2012.

Winter Haven, FL 33881 Student Spotlight To have seen her present at last fall's Polk State Honors Program Academic Showcase, where she seemed so comfortable on the stage, discussing biological sex determination, it would have been easy to assume Robin Savage knows exactly what she wants to do in life and that those plans must involve a lab coat and microscope. Come to find out, Savage is still deciding on what she'll do next. Scientific research has its appeal. But, then again, so does helping deaf scientists to communicate. Whatever she decides to do, she'll do it with newfound confidence which, as she explains, has much to do with her decision to study at Polk State College. "I don't think people realize how much there is to reap at Polk State," she said. Savage, a resident of Auburndale, gradu- ated as valedictorian from Auburndale High School in 2011, and certainly could have gone straight to a major university. Instead, she chose Polk State, swayed by its small class sizes and proximity to her home. With the dual enrollment and Advanced Placement credits she'd earned in high school, Savage thought Polk State would be a brief stop along her educational path. She'd finish her Associate in Arts in just a year, and then she'd be on her way. Then in fall 2011, Savage took a Biological Issues class with Professor Colleen Caldecutt. Suddenly her one-year stint at Polk State didn't seem long enough. "It wasn't like any science class I'd ever taken before," Savage said. "It was different mainly because of Professor Caldecutt's en- thusiasm. She was very interested in what she was teaching. I'd never gotten excited about science before." Savage decided to extend her studies at Polk State and complete all the prerequisites she'll need to study Bioscience at the university level. Under Caldecutt's supervision, she also began an independent study to learn more about the development of biological sex, a topic that had intrigued her so much in class that she couldn't wait to learn more on her own. In particular, Savage is interested in research that shows human gender is not as simple as "male" or "female," but that it - actually ranges along a continuum and is influenced by factors including genetics and environment. Caldecutt said Savage may have been the student during the independent study, but she certainly wasn't the only one learning. "Robin is a voracious reader and pulls a 'Good Will Hunting' about once a month, bringing a thoroughly digested pile of gradu- ate-level textbooks or medical journals to my office. We share reading material back and forth, so the learning is certainly on both sides of the desk. Her independent study project has become a custom-built, graduate-level course for me as well," Caldecutt said. Savage is also taking American Sign Language this semester at Polk State. Through her studies, she's learned that there are no universal signs for many scientific terms a situation that is frustrating for scientists and one she's interested in possibly helping to resolve one day. "I don't know what I want to do yet, but I know that I want to help people," she said. As she contemplates life after Polk State - which will come after she graduates in 2014 - Savage says that no matter what she does next, she will do it with a newfound sense of confidence that has developed through her leadership of the Honors Program Student Council at Polk State Lakeland. A self-described "introvert," Savage ran for president of the Student Council and was elected in fall 2011. The experience of leading the chapter has changed her in ways that can't be undone, she said. "I am introverted, that's just the way I am. I've learned, though, that people have differ- ent leadership styles. Some people are very enthusiastic and others, like me, are observers but we will speak our minds when we need to," she said. IMPACT FROM PAGE 1 lifetime earnings will increase by $6.60 for every dollar they invested in their education at the College, in the form of tuition, fees and foregone earnings during their studies. Thanks to their in- creased earnings, students will recoup the cost of their Polk State education within about nine years. The rate of return taxpayers see on their investment in the College is 10 percent, which far exceeds the 3-percent rate generally expected for long-term government investments, as well as the 7-percent average return on stocks and bonds. As such, the state actually makes money off its invest- ments in Polk State College. A more detailed look at wages in Polk County found that those who have an associate's degree earn $36,500 annu- ally by the midpoint of their careers; this is 35 percent higher than those who have only a high school diploma. Because they earn higher salaries, Polk State's graduates help to expand Florida's tax base by $54 million each year, the study found. Not only do Polk State alumni earn more money, they also have greater success in being hired after they gradu- ate from programs designed to lead straight to the workforce (such as Business Administration, Public Safety and Nursing). Polk State was ranked No. 1 for student employment in 2010 and 2011, outperforming all other Florida College System institutions according to the Florida Department of Education. Polk State attributes these results to the fact that it works closely with industry partners, from large corpora- tions to hospitals to small businesses, in developing and refining its curricu- lum. In doing so, the College ensures that its students acquire the skills and knowledge Polk County's employers demand. "The data from the FLDOE speaks to Polk State's integration with the local labor market," said Peter Usinger, director of institutional research, effec- tiveness, and planning for the College. "Our programs produce people who are immediately employable." Polk State delivers this workforce- based, in-demand education at the county's most affordable price point. Polk State's affordability contributes to approximately 90 percent of students graduating without any student-loan debt. Thanks to its blend of affordability and sought-after degree programming, Polk State has seen remarkable growth in recent years. Between the 2006-07 and 2011-12 academic years, the College experienced a 63 percent jump in its full-time equivalent enrollment. Also, during the same time period, the College more than doubled its degree output. The EMSI study showed that the need for the quality, affordable educa- tion Polk State provides will continue to grow in the future. By 2022, the study estimates there will be about 97,000 available jobs in the county that will require at least an associate's degree. Polk State's study was part of a broader look at the impact of the entire Florida College System (FCS). The results of that study showed that the 28 FCS institutions pump an additional $26.6 billion per year into the state's economy. Pol.

April, 2013 2 e Polk State College April, 2013 Polk State College 3 Polk's Smith Tapped for State Softball Hall of Fame Polk State's Laurel Smith will be inducted into the FCSAA's Softball Hall of Fame this month. Former Polk State College softball coach Laurel Smith has been called a lot of things: a pioneer, a visionary, a hard worker, a mentor. Now she can also be called a Hall of Famer. Smith's election to the FCSAA's Softball Hall of Fame was announced in late February, and she will be for- mally inducted during the state softball tournament in Pensacola in April. She is the only inductee into the Hall of Fame this year. Coaches and others within the FCSAA voted to include Smith in the Hall of Fame. "It's an honor," said Smith, now professor and department coordinator for physical education and wellness at the College. "These are my fellow coaches and colleagues. I worked with all of them, some when I was coaching. That's special." The Hall of Fame induction recognizes Smith's long career and her dedication to the sport of softball. Smith grew up in Long Island, N.Y. While in high school, she got her first organized experiences with the sport, playing for Bellport Senior High School. After high school, she went on to play outfield and third base for SUNY Cortland. The end of her career as a college athlete also marked the beginning of her administrative and coaching roles in the sport, starting as a graduate assistant at Emporia State University in Kansas. Through the years, she ascended to new levels of responsibility within the sport, and with each posi- tion she had a front-row view of sweeping changes in the world of athletics from the inception of Title 9, the 1972 legislation that made sports equitable for women, to the emergence of the NAIA and NCAA, which replaced the AIAW as the governing agencies," for college sports. By 1980, she was coaching softball, basketball and volleyball, and teaching physical education at Salem State College in West Virginia, now Salem International University. While there, she was nominated to be treasurer for the first NAIA softball committee. In that role, she learned the administrative side of sports from Mary Nutter of Pittsburg State (Kansas), a softball coach and clinician who served as the first president of the NAIA softball committee. "She taught me about planning and how to get things passed through committees," Smith said. "She also taught me how to run national tournaments and about their structure and format." The lessons learned under Nutter served Smith well when she later became the NAIA's softball president, taking on duties such as seeding teams, selecting All Tournament teams, tournament preparation, making brackets and running coaches meetings. Smith's next coaching stint was at St. Andrews Presbyterian College in North Carolina, before finally ending up at Polk State in 1991. Her accomplishments at Polk are many and varied. She started the College's softball program in 1995 and quickly won two Suncoast Conference Championships. She's also built a respected reputa- tion for her quiet, self-effacing style of leadership. "She can do everything," said Polk State Athletic Director Bing Tyus. "She's a good listener. She's decisive and her ethics are beyond question. She's a good person." Added current Polk State softball head coach Jeff Ellis: "She's the best and (the Hall of Fame honor) is well deserved." In addition to her work at Polk, Smith has also taken on numerous volunteer positions with the NJCAA and FCSAA to advance and promote softball across the state and country. She is currently NJCAA Region 8 assistant women's director, NJCAA vice chair, NJCAA softball section director, a member of the NJCAA National Softball All Tournament Selection Committee, and a member of the NJCAA All America selection committee. With the FCSAA, she serves as softball chair, softball tournament committee member and assis- tant women's commissioner. She was also named an FCCAA Hall of Famer in 2009. "She's a one-man show who gets stuff done for no other reason than she wants to," said Chris AheP, head softball coach at Santa Fe College. 4/2 v.

For all she's accomplished and for the statewide honor she's about to receive Smith maintains the modesty that has endeared her to so many.

EMT FROM PAGE 1 "And the questions the instructors are asking in class are questions that the students are likely to encounter on their exams, so we're preparing them to succeed all along the way," Guillette said. Additionally, the program has begun incorporating scenario-based questions into its Emergency Medical Responder training. EMR is the lowest rung onr the EMS ladder; students must first complete EMR training before they can advance to the EMT and para- medic levels. Scenario-based questions are those in which students are given a hypo- thetical situation filled with all sorts of factors and they must determine how best to treat a patient. The majority of questions students encounter on the NREMT are scenario- based, Guillette said. "Students are good at memorizing definitions, but in the end, the EMT exam and ultimately the paramedic exam is all about scenario-based questions. We're starting the students with scenario-based questions from their first days in the program to pre- pare them for later success," he said. Guillette also attributed the students' success on the NREMT to the quality of the program's instructors, both those in the classroom and who supervise students training in the field. The program's paramedic students are also outperforming most of the state on their licensing exam. A separate Florida Department of Health report showed that between June 1, 2012 and March 1, 2013, 100 percent of Polk State students passed Florida's paramedic certification exam. Polk State tied two other pro- grams Chipola College and Sarasota County Technical Institute for the No. 1 ranking. Statewide, the average pass rate was 67 percent. Polk State students also had the second-highest average score on the exam, tied with Indian River State and just behind Sarasota County Technical. Since 2000, Guillette said, 95 percent of the program's paramedic students have passed the exam on their first attempt. Polk State EMS in part because of its students' performance on cer- tification exams enjoys a regional reputation for excellence. The pro- gram regularly draws students from other counties, and area employers say Polk State students stand out in the workforce. "EMS is very much a specialty and it takes a very special individual with extremely confident skill levels in order to face the challenges we face on a day-to-day basis," said Jim Wilson, EMS chief with Plant City Fire Rescue in a 2012 interview with Polk State. "The difference between a Polk State grad and grads of other programs is that Polk State grads are better pre- pared to face those challenges without me having to do a lot of on-the-job training." EMS has three tiers, beginning with EMRs. EMRs provide initial, hands-on emergency care. EMTs are the second tier and provide basic life support, such as CPR, splinting and immobiliza- tion. At the top tier are paramedics, who provide advanced life support, such as intravenous therapy, intuba- tion, medication administration and defibrillation. Polk State EMS offers training for those seeking to work at any level of EMS, and an associate's degree for paramedics interested in career advancement. The program also provides Pediatric Advanced Life Support and Advanced Cardiac Life Support training for Polk County Fire Rescue. In addition to EMS, Polk State Public Safety offers associate's and bachelor's degrees in Criminal Justice, and an as- sociate's degree in Fire Science. In addi- tion to EMS, Polk State Health Sciences programs include Cardiovascular Technology, Diagnostic Medical Sonography, Nursing, Occupational Therapy Assistant, Physical Therapist Assistant, Radiography and Respiratory Care. EMS FROM PAGE 1 made their way to the car, where they found an unconscious man in the passenger seat. McBrayer, currently a firefighter and emergency medical technician (EMT) for the City of Auburndale, called for a stretcher and a ventilation bag. Then he and a police officer pulled the man out of the car onto the stretcher. Barnes felt for a pulse and, finding none, quickly began CPR. She and McBrayer along with two other Polk State students, Monica Layne and Allison Skinner gave the man CPR for 37 minutes, when he regained a pulse and began breathing on his own. The quick thinking and actions Barnes and McBrayer demonstrated caught the eye of hospital employees. "The staff acknowledged the rapid and appropriate actions of the Polk State College paramedic students and felt that this could be what led to the resuscita- tion of the patient. I feel that this exemplifies the quality education that the students of the Polk State College EMS Program receive," wrote Brian Petterson, a nurse at the hospital, in an email to Don Guillette, Polk State EMS director. The patient had suffered a massive heart attack, Barnes and McBrayer said, and passed away a few hours later. Regardless, Guillette said, his students did exactly what they've been trained to do and he couldn't be more proud. "Their quick actions gave him the opportunity to have his life saved. As a paramedic, you have no control over what happens later on in the hospital, but they acted quickly to give the doctors and nurses the chance to do everything they could," he said.

THEATRE FROM PAGE 1 to the Pulitzer Prize-winning 'Anna in the Tropics," an intimate tale of Cuban cigar-makers whose transition to America is fraught with infidelity and other struggles. The season also included William Shakespeare's "Richard III," the largest and most complicated performance in Polk State Theatre history, involving more than 100 cast and crew members and local theatre professionals. It's certainly been a season to re- member, Carbonell said, even more so because of the growth he's seen in his student-actors as they met the chal- lenges of each performance. Take for instance student Austin Thomas, 20, who acted in "Richard III" and 'Anna in the Tropics," and plays the male lead in 'All Shook Up." Thomas said he's gained added con- fidence through his experiences with Polk State Theatre this season. He is applying to study in the competitive Cap 21 summer program in NewYork City and even plans.on auditioning for a Broadway play all thanks in part to what he's learned at the College. "Polk State and my professors here have honed my skills. I've become a better actor, especially with the physi- cal side of acting, and a better singer," said Thomas, a resident of Auburndale. "Polk State has honed my skills expo- nentially since high school." Mikayla Duncan, 19, a resident of Lakeland, acted in "Richard III" and plays the female lead in 'All Shook Up." She's been performing on stage since she was in the seventh grade, but said she's learned new methods just in the span of the few months she's been involved with Polk State Theatre. "At the College, they expect you to know your stuff, to know the play beyond just your part," she said. "I've learned to know the lines of other people in the play and that I have to really get into the emotions of the char- acter. I can't just memorize the lines." All Shook Up' Polk State Theatre's upcoming perfor- mance of Joe DiPietro's 'All Shook Up" will test all the newly acquired skills of the student-actors. The musical, which reviews have described as having Shakespearian overtones, uses Elvis Presley hits such as "Jailhouse Rock" and "Love Me Tender" to tell the story of 10 romanti- cally entangled characters. 'All Shook Up" made its Broadway debut in 2005. Director Mark Hartfield said "All Shook Up" is a particularly exhausting show because of the intensity of its musical numbers. "There are 30 different songs, so we're constantly going from one musical number to another with just a few lines in between. That's a lot. Most musicals don't have that many songs," he said. "The challenge becomes how to present so many songs with the same 25 people. It's a lot of memorizing and learning dances." Adding to the challenges is that not all of the performers have had previous singing or dancing experience but at an open-access institution such as Polk State, auditions are open to anyone who wants the opportunity. "There are several levels of complex- ity to this show," Hartfield said. "We started auditioning in January so we could start right away in February with learning the music, then we move on to adding the staging and the choreography." All the previous shows of the season have been excellent preparation for the season-ending musical, Hartfield said. All the hard work, all the lessons learned, all the progress made will culminate in a truly fun show. "The music of All Shook Up' is popu- lar and it has a good story. It's high energy entertainment," he said. Polk State Theatre will perform 'All Shook Up" on April 10-14 and 18-21. All shows are at 7:30 p.m. at Polk State Winter Haven's Fine Arts Theatre, except for Sunday matinees, which are at 2:30 p.m. April 10 is a free preview. All shows are free for Polk State students and employees with College-issued IDs. High school students are also free with school ID. Tickets for the general public are $5. The box office opens 30 minutes prior to each show.

VO. eot iGec; April, 2013 4 Polk State College Tenants have suggestions for new owner Eagle Ridge now owned by Tabani Group By BILL ROGERS BROGERS@HEARTLANDNEWSPAPERS.COM More stores, a better variety and higher quality are things that some of the tenants at Eagle Ridge Mall say the new owner needs to do to improve it. Tabani Group earlier this month purchased the property at the corner of U.S. 27 and Chalet Suzanne Road in Lake Wales. Tabani is a real estate investment firm with assets including shopping centers, hotels, land, apartments, condos and malls across the United States. A press release stated Tabani has a strong reputation for purchasing under performing properties and bringing them to their full potential by creat- ing value through capital improve- ments, increasing occupancy rates, professional marketing and strategic management. The company has 26 shopping centers, according to Claire Anderson, marketing manager for the company. Courtney Redner, assistant manager at Body Central, said the mall has been geared more toward the older genera- tion and needs to focus on younger people. "We need to gear more toward the teens and 20s," Redner said. Hot Topic and and Hollister are two stores she mentioned that will appeal to younger shoppers. She said she is asked about Frederick's of Hollywood. "We need more stores," she said. "There are not enough stores to make them shop." Tony Pantojas, senior assistant man- ager at fye, said a book store and more name stores such as Gap and Old Navy would be good additions to the mall. "I'm pretty excited to see what's going to happen," Pantojas said. Pantojas, who has worked at the mall for six years on and off, said he has seen stores come and go there. He is hopeful that the mall can get turned around. National tenants at Eagle Ridge, including Dillards, Hibbett Sports and Sunglass Hut, deferred to their corpo- rate offices for comment. Jeff Gray, vice president of real estate for Hibbett Sports, said the company has stores in Tabani malls in Natchez, Miss., and Danville, Ill. Gray added that Tabani did improve the Natchez property. "New eyes and new money can only be a positive," Gray said. Hibbett has had a store at Eagle Ridge since 1997, and Gray described it as a "good store." "We hope they can bring in new tenants," he said. Are you going out of town? Don't want to miss the local news?

After arriving in Lakeland on Saturday March 23, the group of 575 biked to Bartow, Polk City, Haines City and Clermont where they spent two days before making a "tent city" bike camp at LakeWales High. Highlights of their two days in the area included a tour of Kissimmee State Park and Frostfroofwith a visit to Frostbite Ice Cream. "I have a thing for chocolate malts and it was wonderful," said Becky Afonso, ride director. "Scenic Highway 17 is one of my favorite rides and when you bike our aver- age distance of 65 miles a day you can have anything youwant" The cyclists moved every other day with the total distances on each tour varying from 175 to 475 miles. A century option of 100 miles is available on each layover day The riders are usually asleep in their tents by 10 p.m. "We wear spandex, not leather," Alonso stated about the well-behaved group, many of whom bond and make lifelong friendships. "It's so neat to see the country, get to know the small towns and meet others who enjoy the outdoors, camping and staying in shape by bicycling," said 64-year- old Bettie Spawal, a resident of Cincinnati, Bike Florida cyclists Bettie Spawal and Ellie Bergman got a taste of Lake Wales along with 575 bikers on the "Orange Blossom Express" camping out at Lake Wales High School.

She met 73-year-old Ellie Bergman, a resident of Grand Rapids, Mich., seven years ago on a bike tour of Nova Scotia and they've been cycling companions ever since. With bikers spending an average of $35 each day the economic impact on each community is tremendous. "We hire local caterers to provide break- fast and dinner included in their meal plan, but they're on their own to eat and shop the rest of the day," Alonso added. The tour concluded with an after-hours private sunset concert at Bok Tower Gardens on Thursday, March 28 before mounting the bike saddle and gearing up to hit the road at 7:30 a.m. on Friday March 29. "With clear skies, a chill in the air and the bells playing, it was truly an affair to remember," explained Alonriso. "We enjoyed citrus and chocolate dessert delights created by local chefs while sipping adult beverages, some of the carbonated sort that are served with orange slices." This is the first time the tour came to Polk County, but as Bike Florida approach- es its 20th anniversary next year, Alonso said it won't be their last visit.

PET FROM PAGE 18 of the economy. However, every year as veterinary visits decline there is an increase in consumer spending on pet products, such as collars and toys. My perception is more so that owners do not realize the importance of the an- nual visit, as well as cats are just plain tough to pack up and bring to the vet. It is not the fault of the feline families that they do not understand the impor- tance of wellness exams for their cats. It is our duty as veterinarians to keep you informed. Cats by nature hide signs of illness, and thus often do not present to veterinarians until they are very sick. Annual examination focuses on preven- tative medicine. Our cats can live longer, happier, healthier lives when we can prevent disease, or identify disease at an early stage. That is the real value of an exam on an otherwise healthy pet. A thorough physical exam assesses all structures and functions of the body, such as examining the teeth, listening to the heart and feeling the kidneys. Mild changes in these physical parame- ters may indicate disease, which needs to be addressed. Another important component of feline preventative care is vaccination. It is important to discuss your cat's lifestyle with your veterinar- ian so that an appropriate vaccination schedule can be implemented. While many cats are not out prowling in the yard, very few Florida cats are strictly indoors. Most cats have access to a screened porch, where they enjoy sunning themselves and catching bugs and lizards. The other big challenge to getting your cat to the vet is catching them and stuffing them in the carrier. There are a few things that can help make this process easier. Cats like to climb into small spaces, but they don't like things that are new, or smell funny. Make the carrier a familiar thing; don't just bring it out once a year for the visit. You can keep the carrier out as a bed or place treats in the carrier at home, so they become accustomed to climbing in. Another useful product is Feliway, which is a synthetic feline facial pheromone. We all know how cats love to rub their faces on everything to spread their scent, and Feliway can help to provide that natural soothing scent. The product even comes in a wet wipe that you can wipe down the inside of the carrier 30 minutes prior to travel. Bringing your cat to the vet doesn't have to be a daunting task. And work- ing with some of these techniques and your veterinarian, you can make it less stressful for both you and your cat. Stop by Paws and Perches Animal Hospital the week of April 1 and we will give you a free sample of Feliway wipes, so you can get your cat to your veterinarian and be an advocate for their healthy longevity.

In fact, Lake Region needed 10 innings to put away the scrappy Bulldogs, who tied the game with three runs in the seventh inning to force extra frames. CodyWilson cracked a triple to plate two runs, one he drove in an one he scored himself on an error, to tie the game at 4-4. Frostproof had battled back after falling behind 3-0 in the third inning with the benefit of just one hit to the outfield. There were two infield singles and an error that led to the three runs. Wilson started the comeback in the fourth inning with a single, scoring on a single by Frankie Bartley. Lake Region won it in the bottom of the 10th on a ground out. Frostproof had 13 hits, but didn't bunch them together at the right times. The Bulldogs earned their spot in the finals by beating Santa Fe, 10-1, and All Saints Academy, 8-4, in opening round play Frostproof and Santa Fe were in a tight battle until the Bulldogs broke it open with nine runs in the final three frames, including five in the seventh inning; CaseyThomas was the winning pitcher, and also had two RBI. Marcus Ramos scored twice and had two hits, while Marcus Bobb had an RBI. CodyWilson had a double. Clay Bamrnes picked up the win against All Saints. Thomas had two triples, while Wilson and Juan Flores both had doubles. All Saints scored two in the bottom of the first to jump on top, but Frostproof scored in four straight innings starting with the top of the second, including three runs in both the third and fourth innings. All Saints manages just three hits, and Bamrnes fanned seven while walking six Frostproof had 11 hits in the win. The Bulldogs will host Mulberry Friday night.

On Wednesday, Feb. 27, 44-year- old Samuel tCastro, also known as Samuel Cuarto/Samuel Mascareno, 1054 e Thompson Ave., Frostproof, was reported missing by his landlord, Lucio Anaya. SAMUEL CASTRO Anaya told de- tectives Castro was last seen on Monday, Feb. 18, at approxi- mately 1:30 p.m. When deputies initially responded, there was no indication of a suspicious incident. After conducting several interviews with friends and roommates, detectives became concerned Castro's disappear- ance was unusual behavior for him, a police spokesperson said. According to reports, Castro has been described as a heavy drinker, but quiet and non-confrontational. Castro is described as being approxi- mately 5'9" tall and weighing approxi- mately 140 pounds. He has dark brown eyes and black hair. Anyone with information in Castro's whereabouts is urged to contact Detective Consuelo Bias at 863-298- 6952, or 863-298-6200.

State getting federal ag funds The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services will receive $6 million in federal funding through the federal Farm Bill to help eradicate pests and control diseases that affect agriculture, it said. "This funding will help Florida protect its agriculture from pest and disease invaders that are threatening entire industries," said Commissioner of Agriculture Adam H. Putnam. "We must continue to fight to save our citrus, our honey bees and our environment for future generations." The spending plan for the pest and disease control section of the Farm Bill was released last week by the USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS). The purpose of the APHIS funding is to prevent the intro- duction and spread of plant pests and diseases that threaten the U.S. agricul- ture and environment. This funding will strengthen pest surveillance, detection and identifica- tion and help mitigate these threats, officials indicated. The Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services is receiving $5.4 mil- lion of the statewide total, with the rest going to research programs. The state programs that will be funded include: Giant African Land Snail mitigation, Florida detector dog teams, research and development for citrus health, traveler's "Don't Pack a Pest" outreach program, protection of avocado produc- tion and a honey bee national survey.

Central Ave., Bartow, is owned by Angela and David Bennett. Angela is a longtime exercise and yoga instructor as well as a minister, and ' her husband David was in the grocery business for 20 years. He also worked for several years with a homeopathic physician. The shop features a large selection of organic and health foods, as well as herbs, vitamins and supplements. If you don't find what you need, they will special-order it for you. An unusual feature of the shop, and one the owners consider vital, is a computer program that they say diagnoses with high accuracy individual health or nutrition deficiencies. The Zyto Compass, which the Bennetts say operates on the same principal as a polygraph, reads up to 400 bio-markers as you rest your hand on a cradle attached to the computer. The program is said to identify deficiencies based on the results. The analysis, which they said costs about $125 at many health and medical centers, is free at their shop. The results of customer's screens are emailed to them. According to the Bennetts, they can often recommend dietary, supplemen- tal or lifestyle changes based on the reports.

Lakeland OKs first phases of Master Facility Plan Lakeland Regional announced its Board of Directors approved the first phases of a multi-year Master Facility Plan, which includes building a state-of-the-art medi- cal tower. This expansion is part of Lakeland Regional's ongoing commitment to deliver the highest quality healthcare for the region, while meeting the emerging healthcare demands of area residents. "Through this expansion, Lakeland Regional will have more space for the latest technology, a new women's and children's center, larger operating rooms, and a greater number of private patient rooms, just to name a few," said Elaine Thompson, president and CEO of Lakeland Regional Health Systems. "By investing in this state- of-the-art facility, we are able to ensure the highest quality of care for our patients by providing our physician partners and healthcare teams the opportunity to deliver the best possible outcomes." The new medical tower will be located across the street from Lakeland Regional's existing Emergency Department on Parkview Place and will physically join with the north side of the hospital through interior over-the-street connectors.

ByJEFF ROSLOW JROSLOW@HEARTLANDNEWSPAPERS.COM It will be a couple of weeks until the Florida Department of Agriculture starts looking for a company to help it supply Florida orange juice to the state's schools. Shannon Shepp, the deputy commissioner for the Department of Agriculture told Florida Citrus commissioners Wednesday the department will send out bids in the next two weeks. "We will bid this by region," she said. "There are so many players in this game." Currently Florida schools do get orange juice for their students but, Shepp said, it is some kind of blend of imported and domestic juice to most school districts. This program would get to the schools 100 percent Florida orange juice, which would not only help the children because the Department of Agriculture believes it is a better product, but it would be good for the industry, too. "It's an age-old debate on the quality of orange juice," she said following her presentation to the board Wednesday. 'And, if you don't like what you're drinking today because of the taste that could create something that could last a lifetime." And there are choices the students can take for something to drink and right now, she said, orange juice is low on the list. "In many cases this is not their first choice and we want this to be their first choice," she said. The program is paid for through the Florida Agriculture Trust Fund and through some general fund money from the state that the state Legislature has approved. The money the districts spend on food does not come from the district's budget. In Polk County, this may not be an issue because it already purchases Florida orange juice. Susan Ehrhart, the school nutrition director said Thursday her department has bought only Florida orange juice for many years and it does bidding on orange juice year round. Florida orange juice always gets the nod. "It comes right from Lake Wales," Ehrhart said. Shepp said the bidding process, though it will go to every citrus processor and food processor in the state, should be a short process but with so many distributors she's not sure how much time it will take. And, of course, the price matters, she said. Without knowing whether or not having 100 percent Florida orange juice sold to schools as opposed to what they get now is cheaper is still a question. "Currently the average price for the school district is about 15 cents a glass," said Robin Safley, the director of the Division of Food, Nutrition and Wellness for the Department of Agriculture, but she added of course the price varies from county to county. In Polk County, the price is 12.8 cents per four-ounce pouch it serves students, Ehrhart said. She said the price could be cheaper here because it is a local product, but she added, served in the pouch could make it a bit cheaper than having served in a carton. "The other thing is our milk bid is also with M&B Dairy and because they're delivering milk and juice that could be why (the price is lower)." But the lower price paid in Polk County is no indication of where the bids will come in and both Shepp and Safley have no idea what the price maybe. Safley said the Department of Agriculture isn't going to force school districts to buy Florida orange juice if they object to the price, but she feels like that is jumping ahead as the bidding hasn't even started yet. But, she also believes school districts buying Florida orange juice will help the industry in Florida which is among the top industries in the state. "There is a goal that would allow (farmers) to extend some of the seasons. Sometimes places stop buying and there's still food on the vine. If schools still buy them (that's a constant con- sumer)," she said.

Really all the same type of loans are still available. Conventional financing is a loan from a bank that you usually choose when you have at least 20% of your own funds, you usually get a great fixed interest rate and you don't have to pay pmi (purchase mortgage insurance). A local favorite since our whole area qualifies for this, a USDA loan. This is a federal back loan for HUD a rural develop- ment program for those who qualify. First the property has to be in an approved area then the buyer is subject to approval based on their credit worthiness and household income levels. There is pmi due each month, however, espe- cially for first time home- buyers that don't have their 20% down payment and or closing costs, this extra monthly fee added to the monthly principal and interest payment is still affordable. There are FHA home loans available with 3% down or more. There are down payment assistance programs available too. The best bet is to seek the advice of your lender and or a mortgage broker that handles a variety of loans. SOLD 3350 Dexter Dell SE, Winter Haven listed for $39,000.
