Since the inception of this forum, I've tried to leverage it's usefulness and access juxtaposed to our daily updating. In 2007 COP:24/7 we participated in a business networking concept, As 2008 took shape we adopted our 3 Pillar Mission Statement highlighting the scope of empowerment, information and infortainment. In 2009, this forum rallied the Pride cause with other local entities with our contributions to Pride Picnic 09 and now, we continue our community involvement as a facilitator for Gay Politics 101, "What you Don't Know, Can hurt You," as apart of the Three Days in September Community Building piece sponsored by Brotha's & Sisters and AMHC. I was some what broadsided by the request, but as many of you know, I'm always ready for yet another challenge. However, this opportunity will allow a chance to dialogue while disseminating some vital information. If you are curious, intrigued or just down right wanting to know what's really going on, then put your face in the place. Check out the Facebook E-vite, call B&S at 501.612.5775 or you can check in with us by hitting our comment icon. I promise you don't want to miss it....
Welcome to WELLNESS COP24/7 STYLE: All this week I'll be highlighting "all things wellness," in an effort to add to the Health care debate by encouraging each of you to get pro-active with your health instead of abdicating your health to a system that may or may not be available for you. I just completed my yearly physical and I'm proud to state that according to my PCP, I'm in good damn health for a man my age. Even with that said, you can't get out of the doc's office without those reminders of dropping a few pounds, more exercise and good nutrition. As a primer, I also get Men's Health online to keep me tuned into what I should be doing without the office co-pay.

Why Living Right Matters
For two decades, Men's Health has been telling you to eat right, to exercise, and to limit risk factors su
ch as smoking and excessive drinking.Now, a study in the Journal of the American Medical Association backs us up.The study looked at six lifestyle factors: body weight, smoking, exercise, alcohol intake, consumption of breakfast cereals, and consumption of fruits and vegetables. Then it measured the lifetime risk of heart failure among 20,000 men.Guys who didn't comply with any of the healthy lifestyle choices stood a one in five risk of heart failure.
