REFLECTIONS : BY ALTA NYE OXENDINE PERPTFWAL MOTION When my fin I child, Donny, was born, I was getting close 0 88. In the next four and a half yean then wen two more ?shies, Wanda Kay and Gordon. During those yean I never got enough sleep, and I always felt physically and emotionally exhausted. When the thne wen small, I used to say I felt like a hundred, instead of only ? in my thirties. Almost from the time he was bom, Donny started jumping up and down in my lap. I*d never seen anything like that! Less than five years later, I had three little "live wins". "Why ?an't they give me just a little of their excess energy?" I asked nyself over and over. Except when asleep, they seemed to be 1 perptetual motion.' My Turn to "Move" After the accident, which took my two boys, as well as their laddy and friend Junior. I decided to register at PSU for a few lasses as a "special student". During registration I nentioned to one of the psychology professors why I was, oing back to school. "You need to start exercising," Mr . Hubbard exclaimed. "Exercise is necessary if you'ro going to break the cycles of grief, worry, depression." ( Only after I'd taken the Psychology of Parenthood under him, did I learn that Mr. Hubbard had lost his only daughter. He knew what he was alking about!) Later, when I went to campus counselor Von Beatty, he .nsisted that I start walking briskly. I tried it, and discovered that I had more energy, rather than less, as a result of the physical exertion. Keep Moving In 1986 I learned about the exercise programs on Channel 40 rom 6:00 to 7:00 am. After only a month or less of "Morning Stretch", one day I noticed that I could stretch my left leg all the way out, for the first lime since I could remember. So I really made it a point to exercise with Beverly, then Joannie. But I overdid some of the back stretching exercises, ending up with what was likely a muscle spasm. (I also seem to have a little osteo-arthritis in my lower back.) For a while I barely felt like walking so I left off any exercising. When I finally got better, I started the exercises again- avoiding anything which strained my back. Keep Moving Now, at 60, I find 1 need to exercise to feel good and have energy, not just to keep my weight down. Exercising it seems, is one of the best ways to stimulate the brain to release endorphins, to give us a sense of well-being. This is a natural high, not dependent on introducing drugs into our bodies. No matter what our physical condition, I think we all need to keep moving ?- at least those parts of our bodies which are still able to move. Darrel Lloyd Finally, nearly a year after Darrel Lloyd was paralyzed from a diving accident. I stopped by his house for a visit I was happy to see that Darrel, unlike Bryon Locklear, (whom I visited a number of times after he was paralyzed), is able to move his head quite freely and to talk clearly, because he no longer needs a respirator. However, T m sure he, too would appreciate your prayers and visits. rtfoom/s/taws...

Brushing twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste can do mora to protect your teeth from decay than avoiding certain foods. Cavities are caused during a process called deminerali zation. That's what happens when calcium a. d phosphate, in the presence of bacterial acid, leave the tooth surface. Over a period of time, this can result in cavity formation. The reverse of this process is called remineralization. That's when calcium and phosphate from the aaliva. in the pres ence of fluoride, are encour aged to enter the tooth and make it healthy and strong. Here's a fact that may make older folka smile: The older you become, the mors resis tant your teeth are to decay. This is because over a period of time the tooth's surface picks up various minerals and substances which cause it to became more resistant to decay. You can protect your teeth by eating aenaibly and not too often. Research suggests that what you oat is not as impor tant as the number of times you eat For approximately 20 min utes after you eat when plaque ia present add is formed on the tooth's surface After thia period of time the add begins to diaap pear, and in the presence of fluonde, tooth reminerahxation is enhanced. Teeth need time to leminsrahas So for healthy teeth, sat tat moderation, brush with a fluoride toothpaste, floaa to remove plaque, and visit the dentist regularly BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY Own your own apparel or( shoe store, choose from: jean/ sportsweas, ladies, mens, children/maternity, large si zes, petite, dancewear/aero bic, bridal, lingerie or access ories store.
