Fitness health can be fun at Huckstep Heart & Lung Center
Posted: at 5:19 pm
FARMINGTON Getting back to good health after a heart attack or surgery is hard work. Just ask any of the patients who show up three days a week at the Huckstep Heart & Lung Center, for rehab therapy. The therapists at Huckstep Heart & Lung Center, located at Parkland Health Center in Farmington, like to show their patients how fun fitness can be.
They recently celebrated their progress with a Cardinals Day. Patients wore their St. Louis Cardinals t-shirts, jerseys and hats, and enjoyed healthier options to stadium food. Turkey franks and baked chips were served for lunch, along with healthier snacks, including peanuts, while the St. Louis Cardinals faced the New York Mets for a day game in New York.
The patients really enjoyed rooting on the Cardinals that day, while they exercised, said Kathy David, RN, BSN. We had the game on for the patients to watch while they worked, and with all of our patients cheering them on, we like to think its not a coincidence that the Cardinals won the game, Kathy quipped. Before and after the game, patients worked out to baseball music.
Its difficult to say who enjoys the themed days at the Huckstep center more the patients or the staff.
The Huckstep Heart and Lung Center, part of Parkland Health Center offers medically supervised programs for people with heart disease or breathing disorders that help keep them from losing function and remain in control of their lives. The staff is specially trained and is highly credited in their fields.
The Center was opened in 1994, in memory of Dr. Robert Huckstep. Dr. Huckstep envisioned a center in which heart patients could receive assistance in returning to a normal and active life. Later the vision was expanded to include respiratory therapy services. The Center provides cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation services to approximately 250 patients each year.
Parkland Health Center is part of BJC HealthCare which also includes St. Louis Childrens Hospital and Barnes-Jewish Hospital, the teaching hospitals for Washington University School of Medicine. For additional information about Parkland Health Center, please call (573) 756-6451 or the physician finder service at (573) 431-3338 or visit http://www.parklandhealthcenter.org.

Is "Rich Franklin Vs Wanderlei Silva II" a Retirement Bout? Fan's View
Posted: at 5:19 pm
Fans have speculated for months that Wanderlei "The Axe Murderer" Silva may be one devastating knockout loss away from retirement, but could Rich Franklin, his opponent on June 23 at UFC 147, be in exactly the same boat?
Franklin, now 37 years old, has three knockout losses on his resume since 2006, and his recent comments in an interview with Sherdog hinted that he's content with slowing the pace of his fighting career.
"With my fight career, mentally I'm at a point where I'm slowing down," Franklin said in the interview. "I remember there was a point when I was young when I wanted to try to fit six fights into one year just to see if I could do it. Now I'm like 'there's no way'. Two, maybe three and I'm good with that pace."
Franklin hasn't been in quite as many standup slugfests as Silva, so I'm not suggesting he'll be knocked into retirement due to health concerns.
In my view, Franklin simply has nothing left to prove inside the cage, and he has a long career in broadcasting and acting ahead of him. At this point in his career, he's taking meaningless fights that are essentially brawls against aging legends on the down slope of their careers.
In his last two bouts, he took on Forrest Griffin and Chuck Liddell in scraps that had nothing to do with moving up the ladder in the light heavyweight and middleweight divisions.
In each division, he's still a few fights away from notching a title shot, and the fighters he's been matched up against aren't legitimate top five contenders, which means he's essentially just spinning his wheels without moving up.
Franklin is still a professional fighter who can perform at a high level, but it's not likely that we'll ever see him step into the cage again with Anderson Silva. As for the light heavyweight division, it's doubtful that Franklin would ever go toe-to-toe with Jon Jones at this point in his career.
Where that leaves him is at a crossroads, fighting the likes of Cung Le, Wanderlei Silva and other fan favorites on the wrong sides of their careers.
Later in the Sherdog interview, Franklin said he would like to get involved with film work or sports commentating when his fight career is over.

Magnolia Speech School's new director shares grandson's ordeal
Posted: at 5:18 pm
Tina Atkins, the newly named director of Magnolia Speech School, has a personal stake in the school's success.
Her grandson, Evan, was born premature. He will turn 3 this month but still is unable to speak.
"It's really sad ... to know that he can't tell us when he's hungry or thirsty," Atkins said. "We have to just keep him by the hand because he can't tell anybody his name if he gets lost."
Atkins and her family searched for someone to help Evan, even trying private therapy. But, because they needed intense daily therapy, they were referred to Magnolia Speech School.
Later, after learning the current director, Anne Sullivan, was retiring after 18 years at the school, Atkins applied for the job.
"This is why we didn't have to explain to her in an interview that this is life-changing work," Sullivan said.
The search committee and board of directors voted unanimously for Atkins. She will take the reins of the school in August and will have a period of transition with Sullivan through December.
The school attained a private grant that will make that transition possible, Sullivan said.
The board is "greatly saddened" by Sullivan's retirement, but takes pleasure in Atkins' acceptance of the offer to lead the school, Charlie Alexander, board president, said in a statement.
"We believe that Dr. Atkins' qualifications, experience and leadership ability will be a true blessing to the school," he said. "We are so excited to see another strong, focused and visionary leader arrive to take Magnolia's helm at this time.

Commissioner Loughery visits Lower Makefield supervisors meeting, discusses county priorities
Posted: at 5:18 pm
By John Williams yardley@buckslocalnews.com
LOWER MAKEFIELD Commissioner Rob Loughery is taking time to visit all of Bucks Countys 54 municipalities in a personal appeal to highlight county priorities.
Commissioner Loughery, who was voted into office in November after first being appointed as commissioner following the election of Jim Cawley as lieutenant governor, visited the Lower Makefield Board of Supervisors on Wednesday, June 6.
He told the board that the county is focused on boosting revenue and cutting expenses as it pertains to the budget. He called last years modest tax increase a result of a $24 million deficit at the time.
He said the construction of the new justice center is still the largest capital project the county is currently undertaking. Bock & Sons, a construction firm based in Northeast Philadelphia, won an $80 million bid in January 2011 to build the center.
This past November, the commissioners voted 2-1 to borrow $85 million over a period of 15 years to fund the construction of the center.
However, Loughery did admit that the construction of the center has fallen behind schedule, but not by much. He told the board he wasnt too concerned about the progress already made.
The facility plans to open in February 2014.
Moreover, the county is working with 200 fewer employees. At the beginning of the year, the county started with 2,600 employees. Now, there are roughly 2,400.
Loughery said that even though the county is working with fewer parts, it will give the commissioners a good opportunity to analyze how to properly deliver county government. He said the process is two-fold: Cutting the size of government and meeting budgets through attrition.
