Fair’s goal: better health
Posted: at 9:32 am
Health screenings are an important tool for anyone of any age, health professionals say.
So the Muskogee Swim and Fitness Center and Muskogee Community Hospital have teamed up to provide a free health fair from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday at the Swim and Fitness Center.
The fair will offer screenings for strength, flexibility, blood sugar and blood pressure, and several guest speakers will give presentations.
“Hopefully we can help people see these are things that can be controlled with diet and exercise,” said Kent Kamp, a fitness coordinator. “And the Swim and Fitness Center is a place that can meet these needs. We try to make exercise fun and enjoyable — if you don’t have fun you probably aren’t going to stick with it.”
The fitness center is offering an all-day pass to use its facilities Tuesday for $6. Door prizes will also be given out.
Kamp said strength testing involves using a chest press machine, and flexibility testing uses a sit-and-reach technique.
“Strength and flexibility are important at any age,” Kamp said. “For example, an older person who wants to be able to continue doing his or her own grocery shopping or work in the yard might need to do some exercise to improve their strength and flexibility. We can help with that.”
Mary Brown, the program director at MCH, said it would provide the blood pressure, blood sugar and diabetes foot care screenings.
Dr. Evan Cole will give a presentation at 12:30 p.m. on heart health, Dr. Patrick O’Reilly will speak at 11:30 a.m. on spinal health, and Linda Loftin, MCH’s nurse educator, will give a presentation at 9 a.m. on diabetes.
“Dr. Cole will talk about things we can do to improve our heart health and especially raise awareness of women’s symptoms,” Brown said. “Because women’s symptoms can be completely different, and we also know that more women die of heart disease than any other disease in the U.S. today.”
O’Reilly will talk about spinal health, mobility and how good alignment of the spine and care of the spine is directly related to many health issues, she said.
Diabetic foot exams will be done by the Muskogee Community Hospital Wound and Hyperbaric Center.
“We know that people with diabetes can suffer from nerve problems in their feet and lose the protective sensation so they don’t feel pain,” Brown said. “So, they are more prone to foot injury, and they many times also have circulatory problems.”
Foot wounds are one of the main reasons that diabetics have amputations, she said.
“We are going to do a screening to make sure there is still sensory function and to identify any issues early on and help protect their feet,” Brown said. “You don’t need an appointment — just come on by.”

Getting Personal: M. Cynthia Oliver
Posted: at 9:32 am
Getting Personal is an email Q&A with a local personality. Here, Melissa Merli chats with M. Cynthia Oliver of Urbana. She is a choreographer, performer, scholar and professor in the University of Illinois Department of Dance. Getting Personal appears first in print, in Sunday editions of The News-Gazette. In the Feb. 19 newspaper, we'll have a chat with Champaign schools Superintendent Judy Wiegand.
What time do you typically get up? What do you do the first hour of the morning?
6 a.m. I read, look out the window with my son, in quiet. Or just sit and have my coffee. It's my favorite time of day.
What did you have for lunch today? Where? With whom?
Massaman curry at home with my husband and son. Jason (Finkelman, her husband) is a great cook.
Best high school memory.
Sitting under the senior tree — a tree that stood at the end of the parking lot with seating built in — with my best buddies, Brian and Hugh, shooting the breeze — Caribbean speak for talking nonsense.
Tell me about your favorite pair of shoes.
A pair of thigh-high black faux-suede platform boots. I use them as a costume because they are so ridiculous. I bought them over a decade ago in the West Village in NYC at a shop for drag queens. I love them.
What does a perfect Sunday afternoon include?
Hanging out at home with my husband and son. A walk in the park. A good meal. A nap.
Was there one book you read as a child that you still cherish? Own? Read?
Naw, I was into comics early on, all kinds — Archie and the Gang as well as Vampira (or was she Vampirella?), etc. Then as I moved into teenage years, I got heavily into James Baldwin. I still have those books. And the requisite Erica Jong — every girl needs a little something naughty.
Where on earth are you dying to go? Why?
Nowhere really. I did so much going when I was a young dance artist on tour that I'm sorta done. I do love going home to the Virgin Islands. That is a must to stay connected and to keep my young son connected to the culture. But if I had to choose a place, it might be Turkey. I am fascinated by its location, straddling East and West. I love the music, the food and might want to check it out before I die.
Tell me about your favorite pet.
His name was Ebby. He was a stray dog in the neighborhood who had gotten hurt. I nursed him back to health and fed him in secret under our house. When we were discovered, my parents let me adopt him, and the family has been dog lovers ever since.
Have you discovered that you are becoming like one of your parents? Which one and how?
I think I have qualities from both pretty equally. My mother's energy, enthusiasm and sense of daring; my father's chill vibe, easy-to-get-along-with-ness (I could be dreaming here — maybe you should ask my partner about this?) and his ability to dance (he is the true master); and mom's charisma, appetite for learning and her determination to get things done.
What would you order for your last meal?
Mashed potatoes and spinach. Both sauteed in lots of garlic and butter. And a glass of good red wine.
What can you not live without?
My hair products. A black girl's absolute necessity.
Who do you have on your iPod?
Lots of reggae. It reminds me of home, keeps me warm in the godforsaken winter. Stuff like Midnite and Groundation and classics like Bob, Bunny, Peter, Gregory, et al.
What's the happiest memory of your life?
Giving birth to my son (Eli) and that whole first year of wonder.
If you could host a dinner party with any three living people in the world, whom would you invite?
Lynn Nottage, playwright; M. Nourbese Philip, Caribbean writer; and bell hooks, feminist/cultural theorist.
What's the best advice you've ever been given?
'Access your anger, then channel it' — from an older actor on a project I was doing in Minneapolis years ago. I didn't think I had anger then. But he told me I would discover it one day, and then I'd know what to do with it. He was right.
What's your best piece of advice?
'Engage brain before opening mouth.'
What was your first job, and how much did you make an hour?
Jobs you mean — I'm a Caribbean girl, after all; we are known for having many. I baby-sat a lot. Got paid something for that. I can't remember what, but I think it was good for the time. I saved it for long stretches and spent it on coveted teenage girl things. I also taught ballet to toddlers when I was 13. I don't think I was paid at all for that. It was an honor to apprentice under my mentor, a renowned Dutch performer. Then I worked for the Virgin Islands Council for the Arts. I was a Girl Friday. I don't remember how much I was paid there either, but I'm sure it wasn't much. I did learn a lot about the field I wanted to enter though.
What was a pivotal decision in your career and how did you arrive at that decision?
There were two critical moments for me in my career. The first was the decision to make dances/performance pieces. Prior to that, I only wanted to be the instrument of other artists, to dance in their works. But I noticed dancers were considered so expendable at the time and that to really be engaged in the discourse of the field, to have serious longevity, one had to be making. So, with the encouragement of a presenter from one of the experimental venues in NYC, I started making work and have enjoyed (and been tormented by) it ever since. The second was to get my Ph.D. I had an interest in further study. I followed my interest and earned a doctorate in performance studies from NYU. I really loved that engagement and another world of ideas it opened up to me. I believe my creative work is stronger because of it. The opportunities both decisions have created for me have been amazing. I am lucky to do what I love and make a living.
Do you have a bad habit? What is it?
Jack-rabbit-itis. It is hard for me to be still. I will make lists of all that needs to be done and feel a compulsion to whittle it down. My persistent goal is to embrace stillness and quietude. That is so hard for me. That's why my mornings are so precious. It seems to be the only time I can make that happen.
How do you handle a stressful situation?
I try to be levelheaded, to breathe, to think things through and respond sensibly and with reason and compassion.

Getting Personal: M. Cynthia Oliver
Author Ted Bagley Talks about His Struggle to Find Inner Peace
Posted: at 9:32 am
New Book follows the author’s unpredictable journey and reveals the toolkits to his success.
Simi Valley, CA (PRWEB) February 20, 2012
From the author that brought readers The Tragedy of Darkness, a magnificent novel of love and tragedy, comes another memorable read. This time, Ted Bagley lets them glimpse My Personal War Within: “A Struggle to Find Inner Peace”.
My Personal War Within is a novel primarily set in Birmingham, Alabama, during the 50s and 60s and the turbulent days of the Jim Crow Laws, the Ku Klux Klan, and the John Birch Society. These were difficult times for those growing up black in a country struggling to give identity to a race that played such an important part of its infrastructural growth. The author carries the readers on a ride through his life from the sometimes raciest streets of southern cities like Birmingham to corporate America where he is today. He very skillfully shows how family values, relationships, the military, and education were the tool kits to his success.
“The Author has created a warm and heartfelt depiction of his life from boyhood through manhood, with memorable quotes worth reading. He takes time to explain to the readers just how important the early foundation and family values are to his eventual career success.”—Sandi Witherspoon, Attorney at Law/EEOC
“Brilliant recounting of the author’s unpredictable climb up America’s corporate ladder! However, Bagley gives us more than a run-of-the-mill autobiography; rather, he shows us how powerful a tool that a belief in your own self-worth can be in overcoming life’s obstacles.”—Rosemarie Rhodes, Judge- EEO Atlanta
My Personal War Within will be featured at the 2012 Bologna Children’s Book Fair Book Exhibit in Bologna, Italy, on March 19-22, 2012.

Mainstream media ‘whitewashed’ debate, says Guan Eng
Posted: at 9:32 am
By Yow Hong Chieh
KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 20 — Lim Guan Eng has decried what he claims are attempts by the mainstream media to “whitewash” MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek’s personal attacks against him during Saturday’s debate.
The DAP secretary-general pointed out that while he had stuck to the topic of debate, Dr Chua had not only launched personal attacks against him but also MCA’s immediate past president, Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat.
“If personal attacks are the criteria for success, then there is no doubt that Chua is the victor,” he said in a statement today.
“However, I had refused to engage in personal attacks as a debate should be a healthy contest of ideas, ideals and principles.”
Lim cited as an example of mainstream “whitewashing” the erroneous report by MCA-owned, The Star, in which he was quoted as saying: “We do not agree the prime minister must always be Malay because we want the people to decide.”
He said that while he respected the right of the English-language daily to present a partisan slant of the event, The Star’s “lies” were patently false and untrue.
The Star today published a correction on page six and apologised for attributing the quote to the Penang chief minister.
Such tactics will not work as the debate was shown live, Lim said, adding that this was the reason why his second debate with Dr Chua next month must also be telecast live to prevent any distortion of facts.
He also slammed The Star’s columnist, Baradan Kuppusamy, for claiming Lim had requested the second debate to repair the damage from his first outing.
Lim also asked that The Star withdraw Baradan’s column and apologise for allowing the latter to repeat the made-up quote in his analysis today despite printing an errata in the same paper.
He added that his second debate with Dr Chua in Malay and English should not be a repeat of the one held at the weekend, in which nearly all of the questions from the floor had been from MCA supporters.
“How can I answer 12 out of 13 questions in 3 minutes especially when most of them were lies?” Lim said.
“For this reason, I chose not to answer these lies as the debate should be about truth and the policies that PR (Pakatan Rakyat) wants to implement to change Malaysia.”
Saturday’s debate between Dr Chua and Lim was organised by the Asian Strategy and Leadership Institute (ASLI) and MCA’s Institute of Strategic Analysis and Policy Research (INSAP).
The highly anticipated Mandarin debate was broadcast live on Astro, with Malay translation.
Political analysts have criticised the Mandarin debate for veering off-topic and descending into political posturing.
