MASS FLU CLINIC TO BE HELD

lu season is quickly approaching and the Arkansas Department of Health will be holding mass flu clinics. The Polk County Health Unit, located at 702 Hornbeck, will offer flu vaccinations Thursday, September 27 from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. There is no charge for the flu vaccine, and everyone will receive the vaccination whether they have insurance or not. However, if you have insurance bring your card with you to the clinic-even if your insurance does not cover flu shots. People of all ages can get the flu and annual flu vaccination is recommended for most adults and children six months and older. The vaccine is not only to protect yourself, but also to decrease the possibility of expos-

ing others to the flu because the virus is spread so easily. A simple touch of a door knob with the virus on it and then touching your nose or mouth spreads the flu. As always, good hand washing habits are key in preventing the spread of the flu, but the best prevention is to get the vaccine. The vaccine is highly important because certain people are more likely to have serious health problems if they get the flu. Older adults, young children, pregnant women, people with chronic health conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, or heart disease), people who smoke, and people who live in nursing homes are highly susceptible to health complications

MIRACLE AT PHILADELPHIA...By Jeff Olson M vention, George Washington concluded, “It appears to me, little short of a miracle that the Delegates from so many different States, in their manners, circumstances, and prejudices, should unite in forming a system of national Government, so little liable to well-founded objections.” As the Constitution’s chief architect, James Madison stated “I feel it a duty to express my profound and solemn conviction, driven from my intimate opportunity of observing and appreciating the views of the Convention, collectively and individually, that there never was an assembly of men charged with a great and arduous trust, who were more pure in their motives, or more exclusively or anxiously devoted to the object committed to them, than were the members of the Federal Convention of 1787." Of the 55 Constitutional Convention members who had attended at various times, 40 were present for the ﬁnal day. According to James Madison, “Whilst the last members were signing it, Doctr. [Benjamin] Franklin looking towards the Presidents chair, at the back of which a rising sun happened to be painted, observed to a few members near him, that painters had found it difﬁcult to distinguish in their art a rising from a setting sun. I have, said he, often in the course of the session, and the

vicissitudes of my hopes and fears as to its issue, looked at that behind the President without being able to tell whether it was rising or setting: But now at length I have the happiness to know that it is a rising and not a setting sun." When asked by a curious citizen after the adjournment of the Convention what kind of government had been structured by the Founding Fathers, Franklin is said to have answered: "...A Republic, if you can keep it." The French historian, Guizot, once asked James Rus-

onday, September 17, 1787 dawned clear and cold in Philadelphia with a brisk touch of autumn in the air. For those who attended the Constitutional Convention, the time away from home and business had been costly, both in terms of family and livelihood. Each was deeply concerned for his country which was struggling through some major growing pains, economically and organizationally to name but a few. States were functioning irrespective of one another and the freedom and unity preserved and strengthened by the blood and treasure spent in the War of Independence was in serious jeopardy. The instability was so severe that England and Spain were conﬁdently postured to pick up the pieces of the colonies when things fell apart. Something needed to be done, as the Articles of Confederation proved to be an inadequate governing document. What was recommended at the Annapolis Convention and what began on May 25 as an effort to revise the Articles, became four challenging months of commitment, sacriﬁce, debate, compromise and prayer which culminated in a document original and unique in the annals of human history. As president of the Constitutional Con-

THREE COMPETE FOR MAYOR BY HEATHER GRABIN, NEWS EDITOR• editor@mypulsenews.com

The three Mena mayoral candidates were asked the same question after the debate

from the pulse. The question was, “Which issue discussed today do you feel is the most important and what is your plan to rectify the situation if elected?”

Candidate Seth Smith answered, “Economic development. As mayor I want to give

related to the flu. The Arkansas Department of Health strongly recommends that people in these groups get a flu vaccine and that friends, family members and people who provide care to people in these groups also get a vaccine—not only to protect themselves but also to decrease the possibility of exposure to the people they love and care for.

the opportunity for citizens to have job opportunities here that you can make a good living. Small business is where we need to focus and make our city appealing to those businesses. We need to fix what we have including our infrastructure. If we can manage our small problems and remedy those they won’t turn into big problems. Efficient management of all department and programs will help substantially in the long run. I’m ready to help move Mena forward while keeping economic growth mindful and beneficial to everyone. I hope you can see from the things I have accomplished in my life that I’m a very motivated person with hard work ethic. I would like to put my work ethic and experiences to full potential and serve as your mayor. All I’m asking for is a chance.”

Candidate Brandon Martin answered, “Probably the most important thing that

we have talked about today would be two things. One is economic development and what we are going to do to create jobs inside the city and for me the other one is our community center that I want to build which will service all the people of Mena. As far as economic development, some of the things that I want to do is to take advantage of the state’s and senate programs that they have. I want us to form an economic development commission that focuses strictly on business retention, ways to help our local businesses compete, and to also bring in new businesses to our area. It’s stiff competition for economic development and I’m hoping we can come together as a community, work a lot with the state and improve the quality of life for the people of Mena.”

• SATURDAY, 1 Day •

Candidate Ron Tilley answered, “One of the most important aspects when it comes to issues today is going to be the issue of the future of our youth and of our children, because our youth and children are the ones who grow up and become the leaders of tomorrow. I really think that we have to come up with better ideas, more activities for them, good activities, clean activities. We’re going to have to shape their minds when they are young. We’re going to have to get into the schools so that we can teach them right things and wrong things. We’re going to have to also make them very aware of the dangers of things like drugs and alcohol. Also, I mentioned that there are activities that we can promote. One of the things that I’m promoting will be a splash pad that will be located in one of our parks. It will be good not only for children, not only for youth, but it can be used for adults also. Another very vital part of our society that is sometimes left out is going to be the handicapped, mentally challenged, various people. So with the splash pad we will have the ability to accommodate all types of people.”

DEADLINE FOR AGFC GRANTS ANNOUNCED FOR ARKANSAS EDUCATORS More than $768,000 collected from wildlife ﬁnes is available for Arkansas educators to apply for grants through the AGFC’s Conservation Education Grants Program by Oct. 4, 2018. The program enables teachers, principals and other educators to pay for many conservation-oriented education programs and supplies they may need throughout the year by submitting grant requests administered by the Arkansas Economic Development Commission’s Division of Rural Services. AGFC Chief of Education Tabbi Kinion says the grants can really enhance learning opportunities for youth, especially in some of the rural areas of Arkansas, where education dollars are

at a premium. “Many of the special programs our Education Division promotes, such as Archery in the Schools, Project WILD, and Fishing in the Natural State, can be funded through these grants,” Kinion said. “But they can also be used to purchase equipment unique to conservation education and even help offset the costs of ﬁeld trips to AGFC nature centers, education centers and other outdoors learning opportunities.” Kinion says all AGFC nature and education centers are free to the public, and through these education grants, educators can even ﬁnd funds to help offset some travel expenses to get the kids to their learning destination.

SEPTEMBER IS SUICIDE PREVENTION MONTH Twenty United States Military Veterans die by suicide a day. Suicide claims 20% of military veterans nationwide on a yearly basis. Suicide is the tenth leading cause of death for military veterans in Arkansas and the rate keeps rising. From 1999-2016 the suicide rate for veterans in Arkansas has risen 36.8%. September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month and the Veteran Administration is asking our community to help combat against this health crisis. An all community meeting will be held soon with details being released at a later date. For more information contact Dale Shultz, CPS at 501-231-3129 or e-mail dale.schultz@va.gov or Chris Short, CPS at 501-352-7626 or e-mail john. short2@va.gov. Suicide can be prevented, but we must all work together to help our military veterans with this health crisis.

Despite preconceived notions, the AGFC does not spend any money collected through wildlife fines. Instead, that fine money stays in the county where it was collected to be used for these education grants. “The fine money we get goes back into the schools in the county where the fine originated,” said Commission Chairman Ford Overton. “We don’t just put that in the general fund and use it to buy boats; it goes right back into the school system. I encourage putting that money toward getting hunter education back into the school system.” Specific programs eligible for funding include, but are not limited to, the study of general fish and wildlife conservation

issues, Project WILD Workshops, Arkansas National Archery in the Schools Program, Arkansas Youth Shooting Sports Program, Fishing in the Natural State, Arkansas Stream Team, School Yard Habitat Site Development, and specialized AGFC conservation education/educator training workshops focused on the programs above. Funds also may be used by educators to take students on ﬁeld trips to AGFC nature centers, conservation education centers and wildlife management areas. More information on the program, a link to the application site and a county-by-county list of grant money is available at www.agfc.com/conservationgrants.

So far this season, Coach Harper’s Bearcats are 1-1 on the road, with a win at DeQueen (28-14) and a loss at Prescott (42-14). Mena’s lone home game was a win over Hot Springs (19-0). The Hillbillies come into Friday’s game with a week one loss against Booneville (42-20), a week two win against Clarksville (42-13), and a

week three loss at Charleston (20-19). Ozark in 1-1 with home field advantage this season. The last time Mena took on the Hillbillies was on November 16th, 2012, when Ozark defeated the Bearcats 33-12 in the second round of the 4A State Football Tournament. Before that playoff matchup, Mena also lost to the Hillbillies of Ozark in 2001 (44-26). Kickoff for this Friday’s matchup at Ozark is set for 7:00pm. If you can’t make it to the game, make sure to tune in on KQOR 105.3 by downloading the app or catching the stream at MyPulseNews.com.

NUTRITION COLUMN...BY PAT SMITH

There is No Way that food could be causing this! “I said there was no way that food could be causing this,” were Margaret's words. “But I was wrong.” And indeed she was. In my last post, Autoimmune, I explained how autoimmune diseases happen. I promised to share the experiences of people who have accomplished autoimmune remission through diet. Over the last several months I have collected these stories from an autoimmune forum; many books, articles, and research papers; and hundreds of people on various diabetic Facebook pages. Diabetics are almost always plagued with autoimmune conditions. So let’s start with Margaret’s story. All of the names in these stories are

fictitious but the people are real. Margaret’s Story At the ripe old age of 21, Margaret was plagued with severe inflammation. A light rash turned into psoriasis all over her body. She had stomach pain, swelled up all over and couldn’t walk, had severe joint pain and couldn’t close her hands. For almost three years she went from specialist to specialist and had some 15 – 20 prescription pills. Finally diagnosed with lupus, no doctor could help her. Between doctor appointments she made multiple trips to the ER for steroid shots. Lupus is a chronic inflammatory disease that occurs when your body's immune system attacks your own tissues and organs. Inflammation caused by lupus can affect many different body systems — including your

joints, skin, kidneys, blood cells, brain, heart and lungs. When she was 24 she miraculously came across an ad for Dr. Amy Myer’s book, The Autoimmune Solution, bought it on-line, read it, and did exactly as it instructed. In 20 days her symptoms started going away, 30 - 45 days she had no trace of her former problems. And what foods were the causes? Gluten and dairy. Mary’s Story Mary had arthritic eye flairs and was in mortal fear of going blind. Did you know arthritis could attack the eyes? Her condition, ankylosing spondylitis, is an inflammatory autoimmune disease that over time can cause some of the vertebrae in your spine to fuse. The inflammation also can occur in other parts of your body, most com-

monly your eyes. This happened to Mary. About four times a year she would make a fast trip to the doctor for steroid injections in her eyes. (I shudder to think about it.) In her case, the condition was a reaction to a protein in all grains, including corn. She removed those from her diet and has not had an autoimmune flair since. Janet’s story Janet went on vacation with a severe urinary tract infection for which she was given an antibiotic but not a probiotic. Antibiotics kills all gut bacteria, including the good bacteria, so probiotics are needed to rebuilt the good bacteria. All of a sudden Janet had all these gut related symptoms, bloating, diarrhea, constipation followed later by severe fatigue, trembling hands, strange headaches where she lost half her vision, memory loss, and heart palpitations.. Her doctor said she had irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Then she lost sensation in her ribs. Eventually she saw a neurologist who found a lesion on her brain. While she was in the hospital her teenage son relapsed with MS. And it turned out she had MS as well. She said she might have ignored the problems for herself but was really motivated to help her son. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease of the brain and central nervous system. The immune system attacks the protective sheath (myelin) that covers nerve fibers and causes communication problems between your brain and the rest of your body. Signs and symptoms of MS vary widely and depend on the amount of nerve damage and which nerves are affected. Janet did her own research, finding a functional medicine doctor who led her to eliminate gluten, dairy, and night shade vegetables (tomatoes. potatoes, peppers, eggplant) from her diet. In 6 months the difference was so marked that her son agreed to do the NUTRITION CONTINUED ON PAGE 17

So far we have lupus, MS, and ankylosing spondylitis as diagnosed conditions, all caused by reactions to the same foods. You

will find that pattern continues with regularity. Some people need the help of functional medicine or homeopathic doctors. Some do a search and figure it out on their own. But in every case the fix begins with figuring out and eliminating the offending foods. Illness can be avoided and miracles
