City Council approves bypass south connector resolution

Posted: at 2:48 pm


DUNCAN Two years have passed since the Duncan City Council chose not to approve a resolution involving a Duncan Bypass south connector.

On Tuesday, council members approved the resolution, which will require significantly less of the City of Duncans funds to bring to fruition.

The funds are needed to move utilities in the south connector area, and the City of Duncan will be paying about 10 percent or $231,961.20 to make it happen. This number was a decrease from the original $385,000 the city would have paid, if the council had approved the resolution in November 2011.

A substantial amount of federal funding will be used here, City Manager Jim Frieda said.

The Oklahoma Department of Transportation, which also will pay 10 percent to move the utilities, proposed the south connector from U.S. Highway 81 near Cherokee Road to the existing intersection at 27th Street.

Frieda said the project is intended to help with traffic flow on U.S. Highway 81. Although the City Council approved the citys involvement in the project, the project would not get underway until 2016.

The city would also not start making payments on the project until that same year, which Frieda said could be beneficial to the city, especially when it comes to budgeting for the project.

That would give us two budgets to being appropriating funds, Frieda said.

Frieda said the council appeared to have made the right call in 2011, when it chose to not approve the resolution.

Because the city was cautious and mindful of its funds, it all looks like it will work out favorably, Frieda said.

Aerobics guru: get off the couch to live longer and healthier life

Posted: at 2:48 pm


DUNCAN Looking far healthier than the average 82-year-old, Dr. Kenneth Cooper brought some simple advice to Duncan on Tuesday to prolong everyones life -- keep moving.

Cooper, who coined the word aerobics when he wrote his first book in 1968, presented a rapid-fire Powerpoint presentation of statistics and studies that support a theory now embraced by all health professionals -- exercise and diet will prolong your life, improve your brain function and markedly decrease your chances of dying from cancer, diabetes and heart disease.

It wasnt a notion embraced by everyone when he was an unknown in the field of preventive medicine, but it quickly took hold as research and studies supported the theory.

Cooper intended use Aerobics as the title of only one chapter in his first book but his editor in New York suggested he make that the title of the entire book, he told a crowd that gathered at the Simmons Center Theater to hear his hour-long presentation.

The book became a best-seller and Cooper is now invited to China, Hungary and others points around the globe to speak on diet and excercise.

A native Oklahoman who was a champion miler at Putnam High School, he operates the Cooper Institute, a nonprofit organization in Dallas dedicated to health research and education, along with an array of other health-related enterprises that operate under the Cooper brand.

During his remarks in Duncan, he said he has almost given up working with adults in his crusade against obesity and its associated ills.

People dont want to take responsibility for their own health, he said.

Childhood obesity, however, has become a prime focus.

Cooper believes schools can play an important role. He gives Texas high marks because the state requires public schools to determine its students level of fitness and provide physical education.

More than 40 years have passed since Cooper released his book Aerobics, which was aimed at encouraging people to exercise. There is no charge for Coopers talk, which will focus on revolutionizing health and fitness.

He is the creator of aerobics; he will talk about how you need to take care of yourself, Cyndi Crook, Duncan Regional Hospital Health Foundation director, said.

City of Duncan to temporarily change water disinfectants

Posted: at 2:48 pm


DUNCAN The City of Duncan will be changing its disinfectant at the Water Distribution System from chloramines to free chlorine for about 30 days.

The month-long change is aimed at decreasing nitrogen build-up, which could allow the growth of bacteria in the water, prompting the change in disinfectants annually, Duncan Public Works Director Scott Vaughn said.

Chloramines are weaker than free chlorine, Vaughn said. But chloramines are more stable.

By changing disinfectants, the city is able to purge the system, Vaughn said, which eliminates the potential for nitrogen to be released.

The goal is maintain safe drinking water, he said.

The appearance, taste and smell of the water may change during the 30-day cycle, but Vaughn said it will be safe to drink or use for other purposes, including bathing and washing clothes and dishes.

We used to only use free chlorine, he said. You can think of it as were temporarily going back to the way we used to do it.

In addition to changing disinfectants, the city also will be flushing fire hydrants. Vaughn said the flushing process will start on the extremities of the water system.

The water system is designed to flow east to west. That will be taken into consideration when the city begins the flushing process.

Zerner talks nutrition during Ladies Luncheon

Posted: at 2:48 pm


DUNCAN When it comes to living a healthier lifestyle, dietitian Meridan Zerner said a few small changes could make all the difference for the long term.

Zerner, who is employed by the Cooper Clinic in Dallas, Texas, was the guest speaker Tuesday for the Duncan Regional Hospital Health Foundations annual Ladies Luncheon at the Simmons Center. About 270 people were in attendance.

I feel so honored and privileged, Zerner said prior to the program. Any opportunity I get to share healthy living, I find it invaluable.

Earlier in the day, Zerner led a Pilates class of about 25 people at the Simmons Center.

For Zerner, that class was only the first move toward healthier living. She said, aside from exercise, nutrition plays a sizable role.

During the Ladies Luncheon, she talked about the importance of proper nutrition, including proper portion sizes. She said, nutrition makes up one-third of a healthy lifestyle. The other two-thirds includes exercise and sleep/stress management.

Zerner recommended eating smaller meals throughout the day, which would equate to about five meals, instead of one or two larger meals. Much of the food people should be eating should be fruits and vegetables.

Eat more color, more plant-based foods, she said.

She also spoke about the benefit of carbohydrates, which are detrimental to the brain, nervous system and muscles.

She said the benefit of carbohydrates and proteins are lost when people eat too many at once, instead of sticking to portion sizes.

Marlow makeover nears completion

Posted: at 2:48 pm


MARLOW Parking in downtown Marlow was cordoned off on Monday to allow workers to peel up about an inch of asphalt from downtown streets for later repaving.

The work will continue today and possibly on Wednesday, said Marlow Administrator Jason McPherson, but shoppers, residents and merchants took the inconvenience in stride, possibly because they recognize the citys downtown makeover is nearing completion.

Im impressed with the understanding of our community, McPherson said.

Already in place are new sidewalks, curbs and gutters along with new streetlights and trees.

The new sidewalks replace cracked and crumbling sidewalks that in some cases were about 80 years old, McPherson said.

There were sidewalks before there were roads in this town, he said. This is really an improvement... These sidewalks will last long past my lifetime.

The asphalt work that began Monday will even up the street with the newly installed gutters, McPherson said, but workers will have to wait until temperatures reach at least 50 degrees over a sustained time period before new asphalt can be spread.

The work is part of a $1.145 million makeover of downtown Marlow.

The city is paying 55 percent of the cost while a grant from the Oklahoma Department of Transportation funds the remainder.

When the street work is finished, Marlow will hold a grand opening cermony to formally unveil its new downtown, McPherson said.
