Organ Donations Decline as<br />

Need Increases<br />

More than 100,000<br />

people need life-saving<br />

organ transplants in<br />

the United States, and<br />

an additional million<br />

need life-saving and<br />

life-improving tissues,<br />

eyes, and corneas.<br />

Yet every day, an<br />

average of 18 people<br />

die because there are<br />

not enough organ<br />

donations to meet the<br />

need, according to the<br />

Organ Procurement<br />

and Transplantation<br />

Network. The seriousness<br />

of the lack of<br />

organ donations has<br />

been highlighted in a<br />

new study conducted<br />

by investigators at<br />

Cedars-Sinai Medical<br />

Center.<br />

Members of the<br />

research team, found<br />

that the number of living<br />

donors increased<br />

yearly from 1999 to<br />

2004, but has been declining<br />

since then. Although<br />

the number of<br />

HealtHY liFeStYleS<br />

organ donations from<br />

deceased individuals<br />

risen each year between<br />

1999 and 2007,<br />

the increase was not<br />

sufficient to offset the<br />

decline in living donor<br />

donations.<br />

The fact that<br />

transplantation of<br />

solid organs is now so<br />

successful has actually<br />

made getting an organ<br />

more difficult. “Improved<br />

survival rates<br />

and the expectation<br />

that organ replacement<br />

will enhance<br />

quality of life have<br />

encouraged more doctors<br />

and their patients<br />

with organ failure to<br />

opt <strong>for</strong> transplantation,”<br />

explains Klein.<br />

Recently, Apple<br />

CEO Steve Jobs,<br />

who had a life-saving<br />

liver transplant last<br />

year, joined <strong>for</strong>ces<br />

with governor Arnold<br />

Schwarzenegger to<br />

help push through<br />

new legislation in<br />

Cali<strong>for</strong>nia to expand<br />

the number of organ<br />

donors in that state.<br />

Convincing individuals<br />

to be an organ<br />

donor is a challenge.<br />

Although about 90<br />

percent of Americans<br />

say they support<br />

organ donation, only<br />

30 percent know the<br />

steps that need to be<br />

taken to become a<br />

donor. Several factors<br />

contribute to the public’s<br />

lack of awareness<br />

of the issue and to<br />

organ shortage itself,<br />

as the Cedars-Sinai<br />

researchers note.<br />

Some of those factors<br />

include disincentives<br />

<strong>for</strong> living organ<br />

donors (e.g., loss of<br />

income while taking<br />

off work, transplantrelated<br />

medical<br />

expenses may not be<br />

covered by the recipient’s<br />

insurance), lack<br />

of understanding by<br />

WE ACCEPT THE<br />

FOLLOWING INSURANCES :<br />

Missouri Consolidated (UMR),<br />

United Healthcare, Aetna, McDonnell<br />

Douglas/Boeing, Blue Cross/<br />

Blue Shield and many others.<br />

the public about<br />

organ donation<br />

policies, poor<br />

training of medical<br />

personnel who<br />

request consent <strong>for</strong><br />

donations, and an<br />

inability to accurately<br />

evaluate the<br />

quality of donated<br />

organs based on<br />

currently available<br />

procurement<br />

testing.<br />

Klein notes that<br />

their study showed<br />

that the public<br />

needs to be educated<br />

about organ<br />

donation and that<br />

the transplantation<br />

process and<br />

organ procurement<br />

facilities need to be<br />

more transparent<br />

if we hope to turn<br />

around the decline<br />

in organ donations<br />

as the need<br />

increases.<br />

<strong>Always</strong> <strong>Looking</strong> For a <strong>Challenge</strong><br />

Whether it’s<br />

lunch at The Bread<br />

Co., Tuesday nights<br />

at BWW, or Goody’s<br />

which is set to open<br />

later this month The<br />

Mansion Mall is once<br />

again a retail hot spot<br />

in the 573, and Jim<br />

Bailey is the man behind<br />

the property being<br />

brought back to life.<br />

It turns out<br />

that the Mansion Mall<br />

could quite possibly<br />

still be blight sitting<br />

at one of the busiest<br />

intersections in the 573<br />

except that it was a<br />

challenge that opened<br />

up at the time Jim<br />

Bailey was looking <strong>for</strong><br />

one. “I was looking<br />

<strong>for</strong> a challenge. I am<br />

always looking <strong>for</strong> new<br />

things to accomplish,<br />

and when this became<br />

available it made<br />

sense.” said Bailey.<br />

The Mansion<br />

Mall was originally<br />

built in 1970 by the Mc<br />

Lane family of Poplar<br />

Bluff. Many will<br />

Birthdays, Mother’s<br />

Day, Teachers, Friends,<br />

Sisters, Baby Showers,<br />

Bridal Showers, etc.<br />

remember it was the<br />

original location of one<br />

of the<br />

first<br />

Wal-<br />

Mart<br />

stores.<br />

Wal-<br />

Mart<br />

relocated<br />

to a<br />

new<br />

supercenterseveral<br />

blocks<br />

south<br />

in<br />

1987.<br />

The<br />

Mansion<br />

Mall<br />

got its<br />

name<br />

from<br />

the old<br />

Mansion<br />

that<br />

occupied the site as a<br />

restaurant throughout<br />

the 1970s.<br />

While it had a<br />

great past the 90’s and<br />

the early part of this<br />

century were unkind<br />

to the property. It was<br />

largely vacant and in<br />

disrepair.<br />

In 2004 the<br />

city began<br />

a process of<br />

taking over<br />

the site of<br />

the Mansion<br />

Mall<br />

and the Valley<br />

Plaza.<br />

Soon after<br />

the city<br />

announced<br />

their intentions<br />

the<br />

property<br />

was sold to<br />

Southern<br />

Missouri<br />

Bank.<br />

The center<br />

was purchased in<br />

2005 by Jim and his<br />

wife Shannon Bailey.<br />

People all over the<br />

area have since seen<br />

the center has be totally<br />

reconstructed and<br />

brought up to today’s<br />

standards. Included<br />

in the massive redevelopment<br />

are new<br />

storm water management,<br />

tuck pointing,<br />

painting, gutters, the<br />

parking lot reshaped<br />

and Asphalted as well<br />

as all new mechanicals,<br />

HVAC, plumbing,<br />

electrical, all new<br />

roofing, new parking<br />

lot lighting, and finally<br />

two new Signs displaying<br />

tenant logos.<br />

The Mansion<br />

Mall isn’t Bailey’s first<br />

commercial development.<br />

It was Bailey<br />

who sold Walgreen’s<br />

the property they are<br />

currently on. “After<br />

BBQ lovers in the 573<br />

have a new must eat at<br />

place in Porky’s located on<br />

South Westwood Blvd in<br />

Poplar Bluff. From Ribs<br />

to Pork Steak no one will<br />

leave Porky’s hungry.<br />

Bill Wilson and his wife<br />

Heather opened their first<br />

restaurant three years ago<br />

in Kennett and have since<br />

expanded to Poplar Bluff.<br />

The restaurant is family<br />

owned and you can tell it<br />

by how nice and polite the<br />

staff is once you enter.<br />

When you walk into<br />

Porky’s the front door rings the cowbell overhead, and<br />

you have pictures of Poplar Bluff’s past all along the<br />

walls. The décor isn’t complete without checking out<br />

the jukebox.<br />

For starters we enjoyed an appetizer. The fried<br />

mushrooms were outstanding, and we always appreciate<br />

a restaurant with sweet tea. We tried the pork<br />

Porky’s BBQ<br />

in Poplar Bluff<br />

steak and it<br />

was spot on.<br />

It is almost<br />

bigger than<br />

the ample<br />

sized plate,<br />

and the<br />

BBQ sauce gave it a great flavor.<br />

The couple we were with had the ribs and<br />

spared us a couple….they were great. In fact<br />

we cleaned ours right to the bone.<br />

We asked about the sauce and we were told<br />

it was a family recipe and had won several<br />

awards. It is not too sweet, just about right.<br />

While the entrée was remarkable the sides<br />

were just as good. They simply have the<br />

best potato salad we had ever eaten. It is<br />

creamy and you literally have never tasted<br />

anything like it. For dessert we ordered some<br />

peach cobbler, and although we were full and<br />

shouldn’t have even ordered it….we finished it.<br />

Everyone knows folks in the 573 love their BBQ, and<br />

all those that do should definitely put Porky’s on their<br />

list of must stops soon.<br />

Porky’s is located at 3206 South Westwood Blvd.<br />

in Poplar Bluff; you can call them at 573-785-4227.<br />

Porky’s also delivers in and around the Poplar Bluff<br />

area.

ozark dive company<br />

Ed Pavey of Ozark Dive Company<br />

invites everyone in the 573<br />

to dive in and get wet.<br />

“Don’t wait too long to learn to<br />

dive. Every weekend you’re not<br />

doing it,<br />

you’re<br />

missing<br />

out on<br />

the best<br />

time of your<br />

life,” he<br />

said.<br />

In business<br />

since<br />

March of<br />

2006, Pavey’s Ozark Dive<br />

Company, at 204 North<br />

Tenth Street in Poplar Bluff,<br />

teaches diving classes, leads<br />

expeditions and sells all the<br />

necessary equipment <strong>for</strong> an<br />

underwater adventure.<br />

Pavey began diving at age 9,<br />

when his grandfather bought him<br />

a mask, fins and a snorkel to use<br />

on fishing trips in Minnesota.<br />

“My first dives were to the<br />

bottom of the lake to get my<br />

grandfather’s lost lures,” Pavey<br />

said.<br />

Now, Pavey teaches first-time<br />

and potential divers out of the<br />

classroom in his shop and at local<br />

pools. After the divers have mastered<br />

the basic skills, they plunge<br />

into the surrounding area’s caves,<br />

quarries and springs. Ozark Dive<br />

Shop employee Heidi McMullin<br />

said Mermet Springs in Southern<br />

Illinois is a favored spot <strong>for</strong> firsttime<br />

divers. Other local diving<br />

hot spots include Wappapello<br />

Lake and Keener Springs.<br />

Pavey recommends novice<br />

divers be com<strong>for</strong>table in the<br />

water be<strong>for</strong>e taking his classes,<br />

but said they don’t have to be<br />

strong swimmers. Pavey said<br />

he’s even<br />

helped<br />

those with<br />

fears of<br />

the water<br />

overcome<br />

anxieties<br />

by learning<br />

to dive.<br />

“You don’t<br />

know how much fun diving is<br />

until you’ve tried it,” Pavey said.<br />

“Don’t wait too long to learn to<br />

dive.”<br />
