    Lose weight by hula hooping; free demonstration Saturday in ...
    ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - For almost 40 years, Dr. Kanika Tomalin hated to hula hoop. "I'd put it on -- and it would fall straight down," says the deputy mayor of St. Petersburg. But as she approached that milestone birthday, a friend -- who very much believed in the health benefits of hula hooping -- challenged her: "You can run a city, certainly you can hula hoop."
