High school'matriarch' calling it a career Assistant Principal Claire Bush never planned to work at school By JAMES COULTER FROSTPROOFNEWS@HEARTLANDNEWSPAPERS.COM Before starting her career at Frostproof Middle-Senior High School, Claire Bush wanted to be an extension agent, visiting people's homes and instructing them on how to install and operate their appliances. But after hearing from a friend who worked at the school about an.opening for a teaching position, she agreed to apply for it and teach for one year. She had since fallen in love with the school and cannot fathom working anywhere else. Bush has served the school for more than 40 years, starting as a home economics and math teacher before climbing the career ladder through five other positions to her current position as an assistant principal, from which she will retire this year. During her long and fruitful career, EIIRFI| she has fostered a sense of community within the school, becoming actively involved within the school and with students and staff, treating them as a second family. "Frostproof is a different place," prin- cipal Kyle Windham said. "It's not like any other school. We're a family here." "She's helped create a culture where it's not a job: it's a family you can go to, you laugh with, you cry with, that deals with the things you deal with, and she's created that family feel here," he explained. Bush was born in Athens, Ga., in 1951. During her junior year of high school,"her family moved to Polk County, where she graduated from Lake Wales High School. She received her bachelor's and mas- ter's degrees in education and family consumer science from Georgia College & State University in Middleton, Ga., where she became certified in guidance and administration. Her career at FMSH began in 1973. MATRIARCH 115 -. I PHOTOS BY NEAL BYRD Teacher Debbie Webber holds up a personalized blanket which was a gift from the school faculty.

City, chamber look to partner on downtown tree plan By BRIAN ACKLEY BACKLEY @ HEARTLANDNEWSPAPERS.COM Some local business leaders are hoping to give downtown Frostproof a makeover, and are hoping the city will lend a helping hand. Dede LeFils, co-owner of Watson's Pharmacy, asked the city council last week to perhaps give some assistance in a plan that would replace elm trees along East and West Wall Street with palm trees that would give Frostproof a more "tropical" look. So far, she and the local chamber of commerce have raised more than $7,000, which should cover the cost of the palm trees, but is still a bit short of what will ultimately be needed when moving some bricks, pouring some concrete, and providing for irrigation for the trees is figured into the final price tag. She continues to solicit money - just last week the Frostproof Rotary Club pledged $250 towards the effort - in hopes of completing the project before the community's snowbirds arrive next winter. "The trees have been there for years, and years and years," she said. "They're shabby, and very difficult in the winter- time because downtown businesses have to get the leaves out of the doors." Specifically, she said the idea would be to plant Foxtail palms. "I reached out to the community ant found a lot of enthusiasm from a lot of people," she noted. About 17 new trees would either replace an existing elm or be newly planted. "Because we're Frostproof, we want to look tropical. I feel like if we change the downtown look it might encourage businesses and more people to come."

F1 ~~1 When the owner of a private farm returned home, he sported twvo men in a pick-up truck trespassing on his property.The men had helped themselves to anything of value they could find in various build- ings on the property.The owner armed himself with a handgun and confronted the men instructing them to stop, get out of the vehicle and lie on the ground. One man complied while the other got out of the vehicle and acted threateningly toward the homeowner.When the aggressive man reached into the bed of the pick-up, presumably for a weapon, the owner reacted in self-defense and fired. The man was later taken to the hospital and treated for non life-threatening injuries. Both trespassers face felony charges including breaking and entering, larceny and conspiracy.

(Lake City Reporter, Lake City, FL, 10/23/12) Douglas Downs, 48, was at home with a friend, 36-year-old Andrew Boyd, shortly after midnight when several armed men broke into his home and tried to rob him. Boyd was forced into the basement be- fore Downs managed to retrieve a handgun from a chair in the living room. Downs fired numerous rounds until the first man dropped his weapon. He then exchanged gunfire with a second intruder. A third intruder appeared and helped his accomplices out of the home to a vehicle where a fourth man waited. Police were later notified that a man with multiple gunshot wounds had been taken to a nearby hospital. All four men were later found, arrested and charged for their involvement in the home invasion. Downs and Boyd were uninjured. (York Daily Record, York, PA, 10/24/12) Two men knocked on the door of a residence with ill intent. The door was answered by an 83-year-old woman using a walker. The men pushed against the door and gained entry with ease. One of the men stayed close to the elderly resident, while the second intruder made his way into the bedrooms. Fearing for her safety, the woman went to a desk in her living room where she kept her pistol. Upon seeing the gun, the suspect urged the other to "come on"The men fled with cash and jewelry, but the resident was left unharmed.

For Andrea, the tropical storm that whirled through Florida last week bringing a lot of badly needed rain, some sporadic flooding and wind gusts but little else. We got off lightly. It was no big whoop-de-doo. But the scary part was that this was only the first named storm of the year. It came during the first week of the official Hurricane Season. We know there are more to come, and chances are good they won't be as benign. So, yes, Wake-Up Call. It really is Hurricane Season. We can all do a little more or a lot to make sure we're safe if or when a bigger storm arrives. Consider this a test run. Remember, it could get a lot worse. Let's review some basics. Step one: Get stuff. Stock up. Assemble a disaster kit. The easiest way to figure out the contents is to check out county websites for all hazards guides. They have good tips. Next time you're in the grocery store and hard- ware store, think about buying something to put away for an emergency. Our Viewpoint Buy non-perishable foods that don't need refrig- eration: dry food, canned goods, peanut butter, pasta, instant coffee, energy snacks, crackers. Whatever. Store them in the back of the pantry. Make sure you have a non-electric can opener. Buy extra drinking water. Don't wait until the last minute. Put a half-dozen big jugs in the garage. You can always use it in December. Make sure you have enough flashlights. And bat- teries. Again, the worst that can happen is you don't use them until Christmas. Have a portable radio on hand. In an emergency, you'll need information. Stock up on mosquito spray. Make sure you have first aid items, extra toilet paper and toilet supplies. A fire extinguisher is a really good idea (for any time, really). Think blue tarp, or two. Gas can? Step two: Get smart. Plans for contingencies. Keep all important documents in one secure place. Have your IDs and insurance policies handy. Make a list of everything you might want to take in case you evacuate. Plan for the worst. Under what conditions will you evacuate? Where will you go? Will you need a pet- friendly shelter? Plan for your pet, too. They'll need food, bedding and medications. If you live in a low-lying, coastal area, you may need to move to higher ground because of storm surge. Consider the possibility of staying with friends or family who have a sturdy house inland. Finally, prepare to protect your property. Trim dead and weak branches near your house. Anchor anything that might fly off. Check your storm shutters. Make sure your plywood is ready to go. And don't forget to make sure your homeowners insurance is adequate. Remember, we're only at the first letter of the alphabet. Plenty more to come. The power inversion: Cities are where power gets things done There's a weird calm around Washington these days. The Obama administration only has a year before the lame-duck status sets in. Yet you don't get a sense of urgency. White House officials seem busy running the government, but they are not filling the public space with a transformational second-term agenda. Republican leaders aren't offering bold plans either. They seem more worried about offending pieces of the current coalition than in attracting new ones. The heart of the problem is that no- body wants to champion proposals that have no chance of passing. Washington is immobilized by interest groups, polariza- tion and a lack of federal dollars. In their new book, "The Metropolitan Revolution," Bruce Katz and Jennifer Bradley of the Brookings Institution argue that Washington paralysis is already lead- ing to a power inversion. As the federal government becomes less energetic, city governments become more so. Katz and Bradley describe a country that is segmenting slightly into divergent city-states. Demographically, society is clustering. In an era when the nuclear two-parent family was the key demo- graphic unit, it made sense to think of America as a suburban economy with common needs. But now two-parent nu- clear families account for only a fifth of all households. The young, the old and the single make up a huge slice of the popula- tion, and they flock to density. According. to Robert Puentes of Brookings, the share of young people with driver's licenses is plummeting. Public transit ridership rose 32.3 percent between 1995. and 2011. Economic changes also reinforce regional concentration. For decades, companies sought to protect their intellectual property by isolating their research-and development functions in David Brooks suburban research parks. But now scien- tific breakthroughs are less likely to come from discrete teams. They tend to come from large; loose networks of researchers brought together in physical proximity. It makes sense to locate research facilities in urban districts, often around urban universities, where researchers will make wider and more flexible contacts. Gerry Carlino of the Philadelphia Fed has found that the number of patents per capital increases roughly 20 to 30 percent for every doubling of employment density. Research by Stuart Rosenthal of Syracuse University and William Strange of the University of Toronto suggests that the intellectual spillovers that often drive innovation drop-off as companies move more than a mile apart from each other. Given this underlying structure, there are a number of reasons city governments are likely to be more dynamic than the federal government. In the first place, regional identity trumps partisan identity. In Washington, your primary affiliation is to your party. But, in Denver, your primary affiliation is to the health of the Denver area. That common conscious- ness makes it easier for politicians in different parties to cooperate. Metro governments deal with issues in their particularity, not as abstrac- tions. Leaders in northeastern Ohio can focus on their region's historic strengths, including a history of expertise with polymers. That leads to certain concrete opportunities the chance to get into flexible electronics, which are very thin electronic components'attached to flex- ible materials. They can design specific policies around concrete circumstances. Because issues on the regional level are so tangible, it is possible to debate new proposals without getting immobi- lized by the big government versus small government frame. Republican mayors tend to be more activist than their con- gressional counterparts, and Democratic mayors tend to be more business friendly. Katz and Bradley highlight New York City's fantastically successful effort to lure the Technion-Cornell engineering school. That was an exercise in using government to set the table for long- term growth by luring human capital, not in trying to micromanage the future with shiny office buildings, a downtown stadium or a mall. Finally, city governments actually have power over the basics, which are the key to promoting growth. American growth lags not because of higher order problems, but because of the bad elemental things, like lousy schools and bad infrastructure. Cities can change this. A study by the Economist Intelligence Unit predicted that Chicago will be the ninth most competitive city in the world by 2025. Its rise in the rankings is fueled by the fact that the city is taking care of fundamentals: $7.3 billion in infrastruc- ture spending over the next two years, a community college program that links education to employment. Since the New Deal, we have become accustomed to seeing American politics as an ever-concentrated national en- terprise. But the sclerosis of the federal system will inevitably produce a reversal, as regions fill the void. The happiest people these days are those who leave Washington and get elected mayor or governor. The most frustrated people are people who were mayor and governor and get elected to the Senate. They end each day knowing they were busy. They're just not sure they accomplished anything.

June 12, 2013 Page 4 Frostproof News VIEWPOINT Tropical stirring: Is your family really prepared? I By ANGELICA PENNINGTON NEWS CORRESPONDENT Former Webber International University basketball standout Mark Marlar has spread his wings into another realm of creativity. The current Webber grad is the founder of AwakenBMS,a performance apparel company AwakenBMS uses a signature combi- nation of fabric called EnduraFlux. It's lightweight, breathable design offers versatility for many different forms of exercise. It's a combination that was developed over many hours of research. The AwakenBMS team wanted to find a versatile fabric that could be used in many different forms and would allow individuals limitless motionfor multiple activities. The Polk County community recog- nizes Mark and his band of brothers as a talented athletic trio. Mark and his two ~, .,. mCi 1'*. brothers attendedWebber International University upon high school graduation. Mark received his Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Management and his Master of Business Administration in Business Management. Marlar pondered the concept.upon completing his MBA. He went on to pursue a professional basketball career in the south of France. He tried out for a team in Mont de Marsan, when he had a crippling injury that herniated two of his lower vertebrae. The specific concept came about when he was unable to be active for weeks, while he was at close friend's parent's house in a foreign country, he was allotted time to think. "This was the most difficult period I had ever faced in my life, and I couldn't help but wonder if my life would ever begin to take the direction I had imag- ined. Then a thought hit me one day while I was staring at the ceiling; it was as if a deeper part of myself was answering my questions. I began to realize that my life was waiting on me to decide when it would take off," a reminiscent Marlar explains. Upon having this realization, Mark decided that it was time to follow a different dream. Like anyone in his situation, he faced the fear of failure and social acceptance of the ones who loved him the most. From the fear, hope was defined. This same hope is the birth of AwakenBMS. "We want to help others unleash the greatness that resides in each of us, but to do this you have to adhere to health in all aspects of life, body, mind, and spirit (BMS)." "This is the message that we want to convey at AwakenBMS, that greatness exists within each and every one of us. You don't have to go to another country to find it, or buy a new pair of shoes, it's already there; you just have to con- sciously make the decision to unleash it," Marlar states. Marlar has involved a circle of friends and family to help with his clothing line launch and advertisement, which he credits as the most "rewarding part of the business." Brothers Luke and Dave Marlar as well as college friend Tyler Hoevenaar, were heavily involved in the birth of the business. Chad and Trey Deberry are also credited as a major help in the develop- ment process as well, in addition to the patience, love, support, and belief of Jessica Margan. AwakenBMS may have been most recently seen at a booth at the runners expo at the Gate River Run, where they focused on promoting their new line, and also raising awareness for the FA.C.E. (fitness and character education) founda- tion based in Jacksonville. "I want to stress the importance of the support of those around me. Without the belief of others, I would have never been inspired to begin the path to my own dreams," Marlar states. AwakenBMS can be found on all major social media networks (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, etc.) at Awakenbms as well as a full line of athletic apparel on the company website: www.awakenbms. .com. Tyler Hoovenaar, a friend of Mark's, smiling for the camera. PHOTOS BY ANGELICA PENNINGTON "TeamBMS" poses fora quick photo.

IUUYW> "We're very sensitive to their bricks," she added. City Manager T.R. Croley said it was a difficult time in the public works department to dedicate much time to anything.beyond what the basics require at this time, in part because the rainy season means more mow- ing is needed, and in part because there are three new workers in that department. LeFils has marked off the spots where the trees would go to allow the city council to see where work needs to be done. "I don't think you have enough information to know what you're going to spend," Croley noted. "But I think it's a great idea to give a face-lift to our community."

She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend to all who were blessed to know her. She was the daughter of Russell Reitzel Shaffer and Edith Steiger Shaffer of Mercersburg, Pa., where she was born on April 4, 1915. The eldest of three daughters, she would have been the first of her family to go to college, but the Great Depression interfered, so she went to secretarial school instead. Louise met her husband, John Byrne Cooper, while employed at a resort on a Pennsylvania mountaintop. She and Byrne were married Sept. 7, 1941, just before the outbreak of the Second World War and moved to Baltimore, Md., where Byrne worked at the naval shipyard and the first two of their three children were born. After the war, the family moved to Lakeland, Fla., where near the lo- cal college campus they purchased a small soda shop which became a favorite after school spot for the college students. Later, the family briefly moved to a small farm on the outskirts of Lakeland before moving back into the city. As her children became older; Louise worked as secretary for the Florida Citrus Commission and International Minerals. Always a part of the lives of her children and grand- children, she served as Cub Scout den mother and Girl Scout leader as well as in her children's PTA. Her many community activities included being a contestant in the Mrs. Lakeland Beauty Pageant. An avid and active church member, Louise was a long-time member of Grace Lutheran Church in Lakeland and after the family moved to nearby Lake Wales, Fla., she continued her church affiliation with the First United Methodist Church where she was active in the United Methodist Women and served for many years as youth director. After her husband's death in 1980, she moved to Clermont, Fla., to be near her daughter and son-in-law and their two children whom she adored, happily babysitting at every opportunity. Louise continued her church stewardship with the First United Methodist Church in Clermont, often driving older parishioners to church activities. Always active, along with her church and school activities, she also enjoyed flower gardening, serving as president and Life Member of the Clermont Gardening Club, winning many awards for her arrangements and proudly attending annual Florida School Volunteer Conferences and State Garden Club Conventions. For many years, Louise also rep- resented World Book Encyclopedia, attending their International Achievement Conference each year. She especially enjoyed trav- eling, visiting Atlanta, Ga., and Denver, Colo., to spend time with and babysit her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. When her husband passed away, Louise became a world traveler, visiting many countries throughout Europe and Asia. She loved traveling with her sister, Janet, and with her church groups. Among the sights she often recalled were cruising on the Mississippi, the grizzly bears and cari- bou of Alaska, the Great Wall of China, whale watching in Hawaii, Greek temples, mosques in Turkey and the Great pyramids of Egypt. She enjoyed the fall foliage in New England and many of the National Parks through- out our nation. Louise was preceded in death by her husband of 40 years, John Byrne Cooper; her sisters, Mildred Shaffer Hiscock and Janet Shaffer McLaughlin; and her granddaughter, Paige Meredith Birgfeld. She is survived by her three children, John Byrne Cooper, Jr. and his wife, Jane, Carol Suzanne Birgfeld and her husband, Frank, and Nancy Louise Ladd and her husband, Dale. She is also survived by seven grandchildren, John Byrne Cooper III (Ginger), Tracy Diane Patterson (Randy), Julie Allison Denison (Craig), Scott David Cooper (Colby), Craig Brendon Birgfeld (Cally), Amy Louise Ladd and Brian John Ladd. Other survivors include her 12 great- grandchildren, Chance and Paxton Cooper; Annabel Cooper; Grace and Ben Patterson; Cooper Denison; Cade, Bryn and Harper Birgfeld; and Jess, Taft and Kohl Dixon. A memorial service for Louise is at 3 p.m. on May 19, 2013, at the First United Methodist Church, Clermont, Fla. The Rev. Doug Kokx will officiate. In lieu of flowers, the family re- quests with gratitude that memorial contributions in Louise's name be directed to Cornerstone Hospice Foundation, 2445 Lane Park Road, Tavares, FL 32778 or to the Clermont First United Church Youth Scholarship Fund, 950 7th St. Clermont, FL 34711.

Despite the price tag of $821,296 a year to operate the centers in Bartow, Lake Wales, Haines City and Lakeland, county commissioners are exploring options to continue providing the service. But, a pro- posal to save $258,000 by closing centers in Bartow and Lake Wales while consolidating participants to Lakeland and Haines City where enrollment is higher, has sparked a flood of letters from constituents like Wanda Murphy who pleaded to keep the Lake Wales center open. "I would have to quit my job because the few other services available are not affordable," she said. In a quivering voice as her eyes filled with tears, she explained how her 65-year-old husband, Dennis, who has dementia and limited mobility, looks forward to going to the center he has attended every weekday since it opened three years ago. "I trust the girls completely," Murphy said, praising the staff, nurses and certified nursing assistants. "Dennis gets his showers here as well as breakfast and lunch. I know he's safe and has activities that he needs for mental and physical stimulation. The one on one care not only helps improve his well-being and quality of life, but gives me a break so I can continue working and have time to take care of my own needs." Although the daily fee is $56, Murphy obtained a grant to reduce the weekly cost to $127. Funds are available through the VA, elderly services, the Alzheimer's Association and odier agencies.. SMuriphy's feelings are echoed by 65-year-old Marilyn McKnight. She hugged her 88-year-old mother Annie Pearl Ramsey, who spent 25 years as the food service manager at Janie Wilson Howard Elementary, as she described why she is so devoted to her care. "I make her a priority because she always took care of her children, grand- children and great-grandchildren. It's heartbreaking to realize more people haven't been able to take advantage of this service. It's not only for the client. It's for the caregiver. I know she's safe and doesn't just sit around. She enjoys playing bingo and being around people. This is a blessing." "It's the best of both worlds," said Donna Kay, ADHC program manager. "They get to live in their home, be in fa- miliar surroundings and yet still come to where they have a supervised health care program throughout the day. The care- giver knows they're safe, they're cared for, get proper nutrition and have activities that provide socialization. It just speaks to quality of life rather than having them go into long term care. Caregivers that have come to us with nowhere to turn and been given a new lease on life." Commissioners were directed to ex- plore options to reduce ADHC expenses after efforts to secure a public/private partnership were unsuccessful and a marketing campaign to increase enroll- ment had limited success. With a capacity for 48 clients, Bartow has 21 enrolled, but the average daily census is 14. It's even worse in Lakes Wales where, with the capacity for 75, on average only eight of the 22 enrolled attend. Haines City, also with a capacity for 75, has 38 enrolled. In the Lakeland facility, which has a capacity for 75, 57 are enrolled and 39 are actually at the facility on an average daily basis. "This is a very sensitive issue," said Commissioner George Lindsey. "Every need has to be weighed. We've seen the county's resources go down by $93 million in the last five or six years. Where can we get the greatest level of service for the greatest number of residents of Polk County? It's easy to be a person who says yes to everything. The challenge is to be a responsible manager. We have to make some tough choices and ask is this the role of county government?" Lindsey and Commissioner Melony Bell both made recent visits to the centers they described as "top-notch facilities that provide a very vital service with a caring staff." "We're awaiting the results of an audit to see what changes need to be made and will explore all options before making any hasty decisions," said Bell. She doesn't know when that will be. "It's the elderly who are forgotten and we shouldn't d6 that. They've worked hard, paid their taxes and have contributed to society. We need to put more resources into the elderly and make sure they're taken care of." Bell suggested teaming up with agencies that provide services to the elderly such as Volunteers in Service to the Elderly (VISTE). The goal of the community-based, non-profit organization is to enable frail, elderly persons to continue living inde- pendently and safely in their own home. Other services such as Meals-on-Wheels could help identify isolated seniors in need of day care. "When I spent a day delivering meals in Fort Meade, it was a wake up call for me because these people are all alone. They see no one except the volunteer who delivers their meals and now she has become their lifeline watching out for their other needs." A tough choice According to the Area Agency on Aging, one in four families in the county has a caregiver providing care to a family member. That's nearly 24,000 family caregivers for those ages 60 and older. Although there are more questions than answers as to why enrollment is so low, no one questions the need for the care. "Many people need the program county wide, but just don't know about the services that are available and grants that help pay for the care. I think we would all prefer to stay in our home with ourfamily as long as possible or until the end of life. This has always been a passion for me for 24 years here with the county," added Kay. "You pour your heart and soul into a program because you believe in it and you see the benefits of what it does out there. I want the best for the vulnerable citizens of Polk County." 'A community is judged by how it treats its older people and young people," said Deming Cowles, Lake Wales Family Literacy Coalition executive direc- tor, part of the team that fought hard to get the center in Lake Wales. "We don't do a very good job providing recreation for kids and we aren't doing a good job if we let our adult day care falter. We should do things to attract economic develop- ment. What company wants to relocate to a community that doesn't take care of its elderly? You just don't do this to your mother or father or any loved one." Cowles proposed changing fees to encourage more enrollment. S"We need a sliding scale to accom- modate people who can't afford full bore on care. Merging with other centers would create all kinds of problems for families trying to take their loved ones to and from the centers. We just have to use our money more wisely and be more enlightened." Others community leaders in Lake Wales understand the challenges elected officials face. "It's hard to justify the expense," said Rob Quam, Lake Wales Care Center executive director. "If other centers are more populated, the county has to do what makes sense. We complain a lot about waste of money in government, but when they have to make tough decisions we don't like that so we can't have our cake and eat it, too. It's a shame because it's a beautiful facility and a great program." Quam added that the Care Center has no current plans to provide adult day care. "There are no easy answers and for every family there's a different answer," said Lindsey. "The balancing act is the challenge. We face some tough choices in the spectrum of possibilities. One extreme is to shut them down. The other extreme is to keep them going at the current pace and even perhaps growing them." ..........^ June 12, 2013 Frostproof News Page 7 Page 8 Frostproof News June 12, 2013 I. -. Hall of Famers praise high school By BRENDA EGGERT BROADER BBRADER@HEARTLANDNEWSPAPERS.COM Although the candidates were being inducted into the Polk County School District Hall of Fame and being honored for their contribu- tions, Col. James Baker Jr., Larry D. Hardaway and Joseph G. Tedder gave speeches highlighting the benefits of their high school educations under the Polk County School system. The candidates spoke at the annual Hall of Fame and Honor Graduates Banquet June 7 at Lake Ashton. "When I attended (The United States Military Academy) West Point I was not the best at anything anymore," Baker said referring to his 'best at many things' high school career in Auburndale. "Looking back, I was resilient because I had had parents, friends and a community to guide me." He urged the graduates in the audience to "please be thankful for community, churches and whatever it is that gives you strength. Your ticket (graduation) is ready to be used and your future is bright." Hardaway shared that his "heart is full of gratitude and I have a humble spirit as I stand here tonight." Hardaway documented the parallels of a good education be- tween his high school education in Winter Haven High School and how it led to his furthering himself in education, and his friend's educa- tion, Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd, a 2012 Hall of Fame inductee and graduate of Lakeland High School. "We both are representatives of the Polk County School System that has a belief to educate its children," Hardaway said. "We are examples about what is good about Polk County schools." Tedder's praise of the school system "taught me leadership, how to be creative and to think outside the box. The arts taught me passion whether it was singing, acting or drawing, it builds leaders to be successful in life." Baker Baker is a graduate of West Point earning a bach- elor's degree in Human Factors Engineering. He served in the Gulf War, attended flight school at Col. James E. BakeriJr. Fort Rucker, Ala., is a graduate of the Field Artillery Office Basic Course, aviation officer advanced course, command and general staff college, joint and com- bined war fighting school and holds a master's degree in business man- agement from Webster University. He has had numerous military assign- ments and positions he has served, along with an abundance of awards and commendations. Hardaway Hardaway practices per- sonal injury law and criminal law in the first of Larry D. Hardaway and Associates, PA. He at- tended Davidson College on a football scholar- Lship, earned a Larry D. Hardaway bachelor of arts degree in political science, is the first African-American student to be named senior class president at Winter Haven High School and was the third African-American to ever play football for Davidson College. Hardaway is a graduate of the University of Florida Law School. Tedder Tedder was elected tax collec- wttor of Polk County in 1996 and has been re-elected for the past four terms. Prior to his county career he was a s Florida legislator responsible for passage of many da rt legislative inifia- Tedder tives dealing with accountability and performance. He is a graduate of Florida Southern College with a BS degree in accounting, work- ing in the firm of Tedder, Grimsley and Company, CPA for more than 10 years. Active in a great deal of community service organizations, his creation of Kids Tag Art Project is a creative design and fundraising project that originated in the Polk County Tax Collector's Office involving almost all elementary schools in the county. He has been presented numerous awards for his work in the arts, art recognition and art education. RoQney direct, to the point at Tiger Bay By STEVE STEINER SSTEINER@HEARTLANDNEWSPAPERS.COM U.S. Rep. Tom Rooney, R-District 17, did not mince words or sidestep'ques- tions at the Monday, June 10, Tiger Bay of Polk County monthly gathering. Like all guests who appear before Tiger Bay members and guests, Rooney gave a brief synopsis of his background, which included having served with the U.S. Army after completing law school, and getting his first direct taste of politics as a staff member of then-Sen. Connie Mack 1II. Rooney also told of his first term in office, when he repre- sented District 16, which at the time went from coast to coast in Florida. "It was kind of a crazy district," he said. While he said he had been told he currently has the largest district in Florida, he said he disputed that, and that it probably might be more accu- rate to state he has the largest agricul- tural district in the state. Rooney, who arrived approxi- mately 30 minutes late, having traveled directly from Tampa International Airport, moved slowly as he was recovering from a pulled muscle in his back, an injury that had occurred several days earlier while doing yard work. Moderator S.L. Frisbie made note of that as he introduced Rooney. "Being already in pain, we'll try not to make your questions too painful," said Frisbie, brandishing his trademark humor. One of the first questions Rooney was asked what was he doing to bridge the gap in partisanship in Washington, D.C. Rooney said that as a rule he does not appear on TV very often, some- thing he sometimes has been taken to task about, but something he usually avoided doing, for a reason. "What you see on TV are the same 10 percent of the people who do it all the time," said Rooney. He said he preferred to work for solutions rather than appear on TV and berate the opposite party. "I'm trying my best to forge allies." Moments earlier, he had invoked incidents in the past how Democrats and Republicans had found com- mon ground. Without citing anything specific, he praised how Newt Gingrich and Bill Clinton, and earlier, Ronald Reagan and Tip O'Neill, had been able to work together. That is not the atmosphere currently in Washington, D.C., and mentioned the issue of sequestration. "We've missed some of those oppor- tunities," said Rooney. "It's regretful." He expressed the hope that the next election would install officials willing to work together. He said he did not want to be an 80-year-old man sitting at a Thanksgiving dinner and his children asking, wasn't he there (in Congress) when the country went to hell in a handbasket. Because he is a member of the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, there were certain ques- tions Rooney told the audience he might not be permitted or able to an- swer. However, he was able to respond to a question asking for an example of- where he supported President Obama, refusing to arm Syrian rebels. "I am not in favor of arming the rebels in Syria," he said. The main reason is the ranks of the rebels have been infiltrated by a lot of people the U.S. has been fighting the past 10 years. He acknowledged there was no good answer when it concerned atrocities being committed. It is difficult to know when to get involved beyond humani- tarian aid. On this issue, though, he asserted he was steadfast. "I'm generally a hawk when it comes to military interests, but this time I'm supporting the President and not my party." Rooney said he did not believe Attorney General Eric Holder will resign and step down Rooney used the word, retire despite the barrage of recent incidents that have cast the Justice Department in a prejudicial light. He faulted much of what has taken place on Holder. "I believe there is a fundamental lack of leadership in the Justice Department," Rooney said. He did indicate that the desire for Holder to step down is not limited to the House and Senate. "I do know from 'inside baseball' that the president's office would like it if he did." In addition to his position on the Intelligence Committee, Rooney is on the Committee on Agriculture and chairs the Subcommittee on Livestock, Dairy and Poultry. He is also on the Subcommittee on Nutrition and Agriculture. An issue more close to home con- cerned The Dream Act. Placed in terms of economics, Rooney said he favored it. It differed from his vote the first time the measure came to the floor. That first time, Rooney said he would have supported it had-it included a provision about military service, which he said it did not. As a result he cast a nay vote. nUAV C. 0 .S.Congressman CG M Tom Rooney tells C o t a little about I i io kcom himselfatthe SJune 10 gathering of the Tiger Bay --, JClub of Polk .'. County. S- PHOTO BY STEVE STEINER He also disparaged comments made that if Republicans don't do anything to woo the rising Hispanic population that it would prove disastrous for the GOP "It's not my job to get Republicans elected," said Rooney. "My job is to do the best for this country based on what knowledge I have." In that vein, Rooney warned that the U.S., is a generation away from the children of farmers who will go elsewhere, career-wise, rather than return to the farm. He then incorpo- rated the argument in favor of farm subsidies. Without those subsidies, crops currently grown here will greatly diminish. "We shouldn't forget, other govern- ments subsidize their farmers," he said. For all those reasons, Rooney said he now supports The Dream Act. "I don't consider it a poison pill if I vote for it." About District 17 District 17 encompasses Highlands, Glades, Okeechobee, Charlotte, Hardee, DeSoto and parts of Polk, Manatee, Hillsborough, and Lee counties. In Polk County, his district includes Frostproof and Lake Wales. Page 8 Frostproof News ,June 12, 2013 County hurricane shelter maps now available In preparation for hurricane season, which began on June 1, Polk County Tourism and Sports Marketing and Polk County Emergency Management have again partnered with Publix Super Markets to produce and distribute the "Polk County Public Shelters" map for 2013. This annual map is designed to assist both resident and tourist evacuees in finding shelter during an impending storm. "In the event a hurricane threatens Central Florida, we will work closely with our accommodations partners to determine the supply of available accommodations. This information is critical in helping evacuees find available lodging. We want our guests to have a safe and pleasant experi- ence, in spite of the circumstances," said Mark Jackson, director of Polk County Tourism and Sports Marketing (PCTSM). PCTSM relays this vital informa- tion to Polk County Emergency Management (PCEM) and area lodg- ing facilities. PCEM uses this data to decide when and where to open shelters, once area accommodations reach capacity. Evacuees can then be directed to open shelters using the "Polk County Public Shelters" map, which lists shelter locations on one side and directions to those shelters on the other. -L 4I i A m i~ i V Ij Ip I/i 4 0 *- *.* ~'O A ^F< Appliances e Do It Yours S * Refrigerators *I CELIPAT, Bring SPECIa vS "r'eIM BIG DAY'tiRA10 863-533-877 OPEN MO LYLE'S 863-294-7739 10/ OFF 550 Hwy. 17 S Eagle Lake, FL 0 ** ., I ."

The first Girls Inc. program was opened in 1864 in Waterbury, Conn., and has since expanded throughout the United States and Canada. Kay Fields, CEO of the Girls Inc. program in Lakeland, is the woman behind the move to Bartow. "One of the things that we've always wanted to do is make sure we serve as many girls as we can, and we've had a presence in Bartow before but we've always had to use someone else's facility," said Fields, who is also a school board member. The program will open up in the former BEST Academy facility, located at 650 W. Main St. in Bartow. "When you don't have your own place, it's difficult sometimes to do the types of programs that you really believe are going to be in the best interest of the girls," said Fields. In the past, Girls Inc. offered pro- grams in Bartow by using the facilities of local churches and organizations. The Bartow center was purchased with the greater goal in mind of being able to serve as many communities in Polk County as possible. Though the Lakeland facility is too far away to provide afterschool transportation for girls in Lake Wales, Mulberry and Fort Meade, transportation to Bartow from those communities is more likely. The details regarding which schools the Girls Inc. in Bartow will provide trans- portation for is not yet confirmed, but Fields' hope is that Bartow and the surrounding communities will all be able to take advantage of the Bartow Girls Inc. Program. The Girls Inc. program and facil- ity has been in Lakeland since 1971, and provides guidance and support for girls in the community through a variety of activities, such as visual and dance arts, sports, field trips, and academic tutoring. The national mission of Girls Inc. is to inspire girls to be strong, smart, and bold. "This is a program that focuses on nothing but girls needs. We don't have any distractions and our programs are geared to address the needs of girls. They can come to Girls Inc. and feel comfortable in their own skin," said Fields. In recent years, national public attention towards girls' issues has increased dramatically. According to 2011 research funded by the popular Dove Beauty Campaign, in a study of more than 1,200 10-17 year-olds, 72 percent said they felt tremendous pressure to be beautiful. Additionally, the Confidence Coalition sites that 81 percent of 10 year-old girls are afraid of being fat. Fields believes that girls are better adept at learning to deal with these types of issues when they are in an all girls environment. "Coming to a place like Girls Inc. is assurance for many of them because it's stability a place where they know they are going to be safe and nurtured and loved. That's very important," said Fields. Girls Inc. places an emphasis on education; stressing good study habits and providing local college visits, tours, and speakers for the girls' as they get older. "It doesn't matter where they might be now, it doesn't matter what their personal environment might be like. What matters is them establishing goals and dreaming about what they can be," said Fields. Fields finds that girls who start Girls Inc. when they are in kindergarten and continue through high school have much higher success rates then those that come and go. To keep older girls involved, Girls Inc. encourages lasting membership and volunteerism. "Eventually if they do well academi- cally, stay focused, and have good behavior, and a great attitude, when they become 16 years of age we would transition them into employment," said Fields. With the combination of outreach programs and center-based programs, the Lakeland Girls Inc. serves approxi- mately 500 girls a year. The goal for the Bartow program is to add about 150 girls to this number. This summer will be spent prepar- ing the building for the grand open- ing. "We've got our work cut out for us because it was in foreclosure. I don't think its been occupied for at least two years and they left everything in the building, so we're really hav- ing to go in there and do a massive cleanout," said Fields. But Fields has high hopes for the Bartow Center. She plans to replicate the Lakeland program because the success of that program has been high. If funds allow, an indoor or outdoor pool is on her wish list for the Bartow facil- ity. "I think it would be nice for the girls to be able to have swim lessons like the girls are able to have here (in Lakeland)," said Fields.

A facility in Bartow will open at the start of the school year at 650 W. Main St. during the school year and $45 per week during the summer. "We could not provide those fees as low as they are without the support of United Way and other people that are contributing to our organization," said Fields. With the move to Bartow, Fields is hoping for the same community support that the Lakeland community has offered. "I would like the (Bartow Community) to see Girls Inc. as a treasure that everyone, especially, hopefully, the girls can take advantage of, and that there are opportunities that await their daughters through Girls Inc.," said Fields.

N The decor is definitely a trip back in time: 45 and 33 records cascade around the walls, there's an Elvis tribute wall, and the counter and stools harken back to diner glory days. Many of the popular food dishes are real'comfort food' and authentic diner dishes. Take meatloaf, liver and onions and toss in a ubiquitous burger and add other staples and you've got Anna's menu. Most of the dinnerdishes cost from $6.95 to 12.95, but the break- fast menu is less than half that. Laoudis says the most popular dishes are the breakfast burrito and omelets, the burgers and Greek salads for lunch and the dinner specials including spaghetti nights and the Friday fish fry are the big hits. She adds that the unique pork fritter also tops the selection list. "Whatever we serve:' Laoudis says, "is made completely fresh. We try to let customers know that their meal may take a little longer because it is all pre- pared to order. If you order fish, it has to be battered and fried,' she says. "It's not pre-battered or frozen and just dumped into hot grease.

Page 14 Frostproof News June 12, 2013 June 12, 2013 Frostproof News Page 15 MATRIARCH FROM PAGE 1 She taught home economics and math for seven years before serving as a guidance counselor for five years. After receiving her certification from the University of South Florida, she became an assistant principal first in discipline, then in curriculum and has since served in administration. Under her leadership, the school has excelled academically, as she has flawlessly implemented new state educational standards and initiatives, and helped teachers to better under- stand them. Having gone through five positions in over four decades has made her career both ever changing and challenging. Adjusting to her new positions was her biggest challenge, which she man- aged to overcome through hard work, study and dedication. She attributes her success to the aid of her past mentors, having served under eight superintendents, eight principals, more than 20 assistant principals, and hundreds of teachers. As others have supported her endeavors, she seeks to support oth- ers in theirs. She considers herself a servant leader, enriching her own life by enriching the lives of others. "We're a team, and hopefully that will be how they see me, as part of a team," Bush said. "I am there to help them be successful." During her career, she has fostered a sense .of community within the school, becoming regularly involved with school functions and activities, espe- cially athletics. She has been a full-fledged Bulldog all her life, starting as a Georgia Bulldogs fan, and now being a Frostproof Bulldogs fan. Her love for the Bulldogs can be seen in her office, which is covered with team memorabilia. She regularly attends football games and reads the sports coverage in the newspaper. Having served for more than 40 years, she has influenced generations of Frostproof residents, with many of her former students now the parents of current students, and some even being her co-workers. Her close relationship and involve- ment with students and staff has made the school a second family for her. "She takes them all personally to heart," said principal secretary Ginger Spence. "She's not so much my co- worker as she is my second mom." Once a student in her home eco- nomics class in ninth grade, Spence now works closely with Bush as her secretary. Not only has their close relationship made Bush a mother figure to Spence, but also a grandmother figure for her grandchildren, who live down the street from Bush, and visit her more often than they do Spence. - So personable is her relationship with others that school hardly seems like work for them. When Windham was interviewed for this article, he had recently spoken with her in her office, but could not recall whether they were talking about work or their personal lives. Windham says he owes his success to Bush, who helped mentor and guide him through his nine-year career at the school, and helped him reach his current position as principal. He had told her. the day he became principal that the day she retired would be his most stressful, knowing that he would lose someone with valuable knowledge and wisdom of the school's inner workings; and now that she has retired, the burden on his shoulders feels much heavier. Now that Bush has retired, she plans to focus on being a housewife and working on her sewing and cross-stitching. She lives with her husband, John. She owes her success to his support. She does not have any children, but she does have three dogs, she jokingly replied. Having been with the school for as long as she has, especially with the How many times through the years has someone said to Mrs. Bush, "Well, that takes the cake" During her retire- ment party recently at the high school, she got a chance to cut the cake, and eat it too.

If your dog comes in limping, you can get X-rays, bloodwork and surgery done all in the same place. And if your pet needs to go home with medica- tions, either for treatment of a disease or prevention (such as heartworm or flea), you head home with what you need and do not have to make an extra stop. However, there is a great deal of speculation that within a few years the veterinary pharmacy, within small animal practices, will be non-existent. As a veterinarian, one of my biggest concerns about losing our pharmacy is losing that connection with my patients. For example, if I start a cat on daily medication for an over-active thyroid gland, I know that I will see that owner in the hospital at least every six weeks to refill their medication. That is a perfect opportunity for a quick check-in to ask how Boots is doing, and to hear perhaps that he's had a little vomiting over the last week. This is something I would certainly want to Dr. Ashley Lab address in relation to this medication, but not something that a human medi- cine pharmacist may be familiar with. If I were to write a prescription for this cat for a six-week supply of medi- cation, with three refills, I may not have this interaction with the owner for six months or a year. Internet pharmacies have opened a whole new concern for us. One concern is that we veterinarians are often leftout of making decisions about appropriate medications for the pet's health. With such an array of products available, I'm often surprised to learn what all my patients may be taking. And perhaps of even more concern are the medications they should be taking, but are not. Unfortunately, with the Internet the personal veterinary con- nection is not there to aid you in mak- ing decisions. Two common situations I encounter are one, a dog scratching their ears, so an owner may purchase an over-the-counter ear mite remedy. If in a week or two, they are still scratch- ing their ears and shaking their heads, I will have the chance to examine their ears. Commonly the ears are infected, but the ear mite medication cannot treat that. The other common concern is when discussing heartworm and flea control. Families may be using a product that they believe was prevent- ing both, but then come to discover they have not been giving their pet heartworm prevention. Aside from the above concerns about Internet and some big retail pharma- cies, there are also questions as to where the medications are coming from, and if are they legitimate prod- ucts. Most veterinary drug distributors do not sell their products to these pharmacies, because they recognize the importance of the patient's veteri- narian being involved. However, these PHOTOS PROVIDED As a veterinarian, one of Ashley Lab's biggest concerns is about that the pharmacy is losing a connection with her patients. products still appear for sale online and in other pharmacies. Where are they coming from? We don't know all the answers. If I know a particular product being offered for sale online is not coming from a direct source, I am fearful that it may not be effective or may even be harmful. I recommend working with your veteri- narian to make sure the products your pets are receiving are safe and effective. We are here to be advocates for your pets and to keep them healthy.

To help pet owners prepare for hurricane season, TripsWithPets.com provides an online Disaster Preparedness and Resource Guide for Pets, www.tripswithpets. com/prepare. The most important part of a disaster plan is to prepare for an evacuation. Red Cross disaster shelters cannot ac- cept pets because of states' health and safety regulations and other consider- ations. Further, most kennels, veteri- narians, and animal shelters are usually filled beyond capacity. TripsWithPets. come's Disaster Preparedness and Resource Guide for Pets offers a pet evacuation plan checklist, complete with resources on finding a safe place for pets to stay, what to do if pets are home alone when disaster strikes, as well as recommended items to include in a Pet Evacuation & Disaster Kit. In addition, the TripsWithPets.com Disaster Preparedness and Resource Guide for Pets includes links to the National Hurricane Center, Weather Channel, American Red Cross, and FEMA just to name a few. The guide also offers site visitors access to helpful directories, such as over 20,000 pet friendly accom- modations across the U.S. and Canada, airlines, pet hospitals and more. rangers of leaving your pet in a parked car With the summer months upon us, pet travel is at its height and it's time for a reminder about the dangers of leaving your pet in a parked car. Whether you're parking in the shade, just running into the store, or leav- ing the windows cracked, it is still not OK to leave your pet in a parked car. The temperature inside a car can skyrocket after just a few minutes. Parking in the shade or leaving the windows cracked does very little to alleviate this pressure cooker. On a warm, sunny day try turning your car off, cracking your windows and sitting there. It will only be a few short minutes before it becomes un- bearable. Imagine how your helpless pet will feel. On an 85-degree day, for example, the temperature inside a car with the windows cracked can reach 102 degrees within only ten minutes. After 30 minutes, the temperature will reach 120 degrees. At 110 degrees, pets are in danger of heat stroke. On hot and humid days, the temperature in a car parked in direct sunlight can rise more than 30 degrees per minute, and quickly become lethal. Stanford University School of Medicine conducted a study to measure the temperature rise inside a parked car on sunny days with highs ranging from 72 to 96 degrees F. Their results showed that a car's interior can heat up by an average of 40 degrees F within an hour, regard- less of ambient temperature. Ambient temperature doesn't matter it's whether it's sunny out. Eighty percent of the temperature rise occurred within the first half-hourEven on a relatively cool day, the temperature inside a parked car can quickly spike to life-threatening levels if the sun is out. Further, the researchers noted that much like the sun warms a greenhouse in winter; it also warms a parked car on cool days. In both cases, the sun heats up a mass of air trapped under glass. Precautions such as cracking a window or run- ning the air conditioner prior to parking the car were found to be inadequate. "If more people knew the danger of leaving their pets in their parked car, they wouldn't do it," said Kim Salerno, TripsWithPets.com president and founder. "Pets are very suscep- tible to overheating as they are much less efficient at cooling themselves than people are" adds Salerno. The solution is simple leave your pets at home if the place you are going does not allow pets. Dogs are designed to conserve heat. Their sweat glands, which exist on their nose and the pads of their feet, are inadequate for cooling dur- ing hot days. Panting and drinking water helps cool them, but if they only have hot air to breathe, dogs can suffer brain and organ damage after just 15 minutes. Short-nosed breeds, young pets, seniors or pets with weight, respiratory, cardiovascular or other health problems are especially susceptible to heat-related stress. Signs of heat stress include heavy panting, glazed eyes, a rapid pulse, unsteadiness, a staggering gait, vomit- ing or a deep red or purple tongue. If a pet becomes overheated, immediately lowering their body temperature is a must. Move the pet into the shade and apply cool (not cold) water all over their body to gradually lower their temperature. Apply ice packs or cool towels to the pet's head, neck and chest only. Allow the pet to drink small amounts of cool water or lick ice cubes. FILE PHOTO ,Plan for pets along with yourself, and be sure to put them in a carrier during the hurricane. Then take the pet to the nearest vet. Animal Services Officers or other law enforcement officers are authorized to remove any animal left in an unat- tended vehicle that is exhibiting signs of heat stress by using the amount of force necessary to remove the animal, and shall not be liable for any damages reasonably related to the removal. The pet owner may be charged with animal cruelty. ^[ffiCUD=lni Cmin'^inini 6l(MEMCoa]3 amomi-u=? aCzm We will be offering a great deal on all Feline Spay & Neuters as well as discounted vaccines while they are here for surgery.

Polk's Nature Discovery Center teacher, Sherri Brownkatz was in this process when she received a notice the first week of May that she and Kim Rex were being repurposed from their positions at the Discovery Center to science teacher positions at a district middle school. "It was a complete surprise. We were not expecting it at all," said Brownkatz of the decision to repurpose the two teaching positions. The Discovery Center is located at Circle B Bar Reserve and boasts more than 12,000 acres of natural wildlife. The decision is part of the mandate to balance the $12.7 million education budget deficit by July 1. This decision will end 1he curriculum based Eco-Lab program for seventh-graders that al- lows students to take a field trip to the Discovery Center. "They don't get it in the classroom. We always tell the kids, 'You're study- ing an ecosystem. We cannot bring an ecosystem to you so we bring you out to actually experience it.' Something that reading out of a book will never do for you is give you an experience," said Brownkatz. The program was made possible by a three-way partnership among the Polk County Commission, the school board of Polk County and the Southwest Florida Water Management District, with the goal being to provide hands-on learning experiences in an outdoor setting that engage students in investigating the value of Polk County's natural resources. When the students come on their field trip to the Discovery Center they are given a set of materials to complete the lab, which includes hand-held computers, a set of binoculars, sci- entific probe ware, species identity sheets, a log book, and other tools to gather lab samples. "(This program) combines technology with the natural world," said Brownkatz. Much of the curriculum is based around educat- ing students of human impact on the natural world and teaching them where their drinking water comes from. "There's an old quote, 'If you don't know about it you won't care about it. If you don't love it, you're not going to do anything for it," said Brownkatz. A self described "outdoors person," Brownkatz sets up the Eco-Lab so that students can see for themselves the water quality levels of local water sources and learn about the threat of sinkholes and saltwater intrusion along the coast. "These are the voters of the future," said Brownkatz, who believes hands-on learning is crucial to their education. Throughout the process of coming up with a plan to balance the educa- tion budget deficit, the Polk County school board has avoided making direct cuts to staff and programs that affect the education of Polk County's students. People and programs are the last place the board has looked to make cuts to, said District 4 school board member Dick Mullenax. "So far we have not had to touch the students and the classroom," said Mullenax. "This is directly affecting their sci- ence education," said Brownka-tz, who is hoping for a community response that will cause the district to recon- sider the cut to the seventh-grade program. "I don't have a solution (to the budget deficit) but I certainly think that this (program) is necessary. Kids need hands-on. It can't all be out of a book," said Brownkatz. The universal consensus is that these are tough times and balancing the deficit is a difficult task. "All the easy cuts have been made," said Mullenax. "It is a fact that we were told by Becky Braaten from the Department of Academic Rigor that we were being repurposed," said Brownkatz. However, the school board has not had the chance to discuss this decision with the new superintendent, Kathryn LeRoy. The new superintendent is re- viewing the budget and plans to bring her recommendations to the board in a meeting scheduled for Tuesday, said Board Chairwoman, Hazel Sellers. Polk County Association President, Marianne Capoziello agrees that the primary goal is to make sure the students are getting the education that they need. "At the moment my goal is to have some open conversation with the new superintendent," said Capoziello, who plans to voice her opposition to any mention of casting the blame towards the teachers. "While this center has been very valuable, we have to prioritize where we're making these cuts," said Sellers. If the Discovery Center program does in fact get cut, Sellers hopes that the district will be able to find a way to still give students the meaningful hands-on experience that the Eco-Lab program provided. Though Brownkatz and Rex will both have jobs next year, the district saves money by not having to hire two new teachers to take the science teacher positions that they will be filling. "This is my dream job," said Brownkatz of her position at the Discovery Center. "If you're a teacher today, you have to really be dedicated and you have to know that what you do is for the kids." During these economically hard times, the reward of being a teacher does not come from the salary, but from the joy of seeing students happy while learning something worthwhile, said Brownkatz. One day, Brownkatz had a student come up to her and say, "This is the best field trip I've had in 10 years!" "Well, he's 13 years old. He hasn't been in school for 10 years. They are so funny," said Brownkatz. The response from parents and classroom teachers has been positive too, regarding the Discovery Center Eco-Lab experience. In an anonymous final evaluation of the program, parents and teachers were given the chance to leave their comments of the program. One evaluator wrote, "There were many kids that surprised me and I think this trip may have been life-alter- ing to them. I saw glimmers of possible biologists/scientists in students that I had never seen before and that was really cool. This trip gave them the hands-on experience that goes beyond just meeting the standards ... they got to experience life! Let's see the FCAT measure that!" PHOTOS BY ALIDA SCHAT Bones, fossilized rocks, shells and all kinds of things from the environment are on display at the Circle B Ranch's Discovery Center where seventh-graders have received a hands-on education that is facing termination due to budget cuts. The Polk County Discovery Center has beep a place where seventh-graders have gotten a hands- on education on the ecosystem and environment. That program may go away as the school board tries to cut about $13 million from its budget. rLake Wales Pharmacy |"Your Friendly Pharmacy" FREE Delivery FREE Oral Antibiotic Program Don' fogtt rn-orp CoEItat GENERICS for only $2.99 Lowest Prices, If Not; We'll Beat the Competitor 6M~swv*" AFFT i nr 1322 State Road 60 E OFFI OFF sIO OFF Lake Wales, FL 33853 S 2n Orange Grove Plaza 1 9(863) 676-0400 t 2d. 3r Fax: (863) 676-0445 visi Visit Vst it HOURS: Mon-Fri 9am to 6pm SFor any new oriI Saturday 9am to 1pm transferred prescription a Closed Sunday - -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -Clo edSu da for reading the Frostproof News Page 18 Frostproof News June 12, 2013 FEELING Cool off with home-made infused water Our bodies are composed of 60 percent water. This life-sustaining, calorie-free fluid is essential for every cell and organ. Many folks consider drinking water unimportant or boring. This is, in part, the unfortunate result of decades-long aggressive marketing campaigns by commercial beverage manufacturers. To replace daily large amounts of water, lost by perspiration, breathing, in urine, and other waste-expelling mechanisms, we must drink 6-8 cups of plain water, as well as additive-free beverages made up of mostly water. Eating more water-rich foods such as fresh fruits and vegetables is also part of a good hydration and detoxification strategy. Do not, however, drink more than a half cup liquid with or immediately after meals. Water infused with vegetables, herbs, or fruit, for daily consumption or when you are having company, is utterly refreshing, fabulously delicious, attractive in appear- ance, and nourishing to boot. This type of beverage is great for staying hydrated and is filled with vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients from the fresh ingredients incorporated in it (See recipes below). When pouring a glass of infused water, strain into the glass only the amount to be served. You can garnish it with a sprig of an herb, or a slice of fruit. Twenty-four hours after making the enhanced water, strain the entire amount (if any is left), and discard its solid ingredients, to prevent them from rotting in the water. Once you made a couple of these low-cal, delicious health-bombs, you can let your imagination and your creative juices concoct new combinations, as well as varying flavor strength: (gradually) add more water if you prefer only a hint of flavor. For a more robust taste use larger amounts of the ingredients added to the. water. A teaspoon of finely grated ginger root adds a magnificent, more complex and tropical flavor to any of these beverages. Ginger root can be found in produce sections of most grocery stores. Additional ingredients which can be used for scrumptious infused water are berries, cantaloupe, peach, orange, honeydew, cilantro, parsley, rosemary, and other herbs and juicy fruits. Make your own additive-free, caffeine- free iced tea from all natural, herbal tea bags. Do not add sugar, to any of the drinks or you will defeat your own wellness endeavor. For a slightly sweeter taste, if desired, you can add a teaspoon of honey dissolved in a tablespoon of warm water. If you live in Sodaville wean yourself from soft drinks and other commercial, health-wrecking drinks which marinate your body with, artificial food colors, arti- ficial flavors and sweeteners, corn syrup, preservatives and/or caffeine. In addition, the beverages are infinitely more expen- sive when you also consider the health issues they cause. Some of the terms used in labeling these products, such as "natural" are loosely defined by the Food and Drug Administration's laws and can be quite misleading to the consumer. If you care about your health, cut down, or better yet eliminate, unhealthy, calorie-laden beverages,-and make your own wholesome thirst-quenchers in Watermelon basil. minutes. This will also save you buckets of money, and greatly supports your weight control effort. You can further save expense by investing in a counter-top water purifying pitcher and use clean, inexpensive water for drinking and cook- ing.

This is given to each mortgagee in a Good Faith Estimate. As mentioned earlier, your source of income is paramount as equally as your credit score. When I speak at the local schools, or even with my own children, I tell them I cannot stress enough how important it is to build good credit. Even if they don't have a W-2 job and perhaps just earning a small house- hold income say from babysitting, they can still start building and main- taining a line of credit. When they purchase or lease a cell phone ac- cess in their own name, this is a small form of credit worthiness called 22 Blue Jordan Road Immaculate fresh contemporary 3/2 home located on two Iacre lots dbl garage, separate workshop 2 utlity sheds, screen lanai, vaulted ceilings. lots of storage closets Asking $187,500.00 OBO secondary credit.

Credit scoring is highly based on payment history, how many late payments were made within 30, 60 and 90 days. It is still highly essential to keep you debt paid off or minimized as much as possible. Again, your debt ratio, the two aforementioned criteria income versus liabilities, is crucial. The three different Cynthia L. Wise Keystone Realty Inc. major credit bureaus calculate the credit a little differently from one or the other, hence the reason why most credit reports are shown with all three scores from Experian, Equifax and TransUnion. Usually your potential lender pre- fers to "pull your credit" so that it comes straight to them along with all three scores. All considerations about score revolve around the strength of the economy in general and investors' appetites for risk in providing the funding for borrowers in particular when the score is evaluated.
