Milwaukee Urban League selects Dr. Eve Hall to succeed Ralph E. Hollmon as President and CEO
Commits to continued strong collaboration with African American Chamber of Commerce of Wisconsin through transition and beyond
The Milwaukee Urban League (MUL) announced Wednesday, January 4, 2017 that Dr. Eve Hall, currently president and CEO of the African American Chamber of Commerce of Wisconsin (AACCW), has been named its next president and CEO. Dr. Hall replaces Ralph E. Hollmon, who has led the Milwaukee Urban League since 2002 and is set to retire in 2017. “Dr. Hall is the ideal choice to build on the momentum of the Milwaukee Urban League at a pivotal time for our community,” said Noah Fenceroy, chair of the MUL Urban League and search committee. “Her non-profit management experience, passion for the mission of the Urban League and deep ties locally and nationally will enable her to take the work and impact of the Milwaukee Urban League to the next level.” Dr. Hall has extensive leadership experience in education, government and non-profit. The core of her work has been fundraising; building programs and partnerships to increase education and career opportunities for students; and enhancing professional training and development for adults while leveraging the power of edu-

Past roles have included Chief Innovation Officer/Vice President of Programs/Executive Director for the Thurgood Marshall College Fund; Vice President of Public Affairs for Family Service of Milwaukee; MPS School to Work Administrator reporting to the Superintendent, and Director of former Wisconsin Governor Tommy Thompson’s Milwaukee Office. Clifton Phelps, AACCW Board Chairperson stated, “When Dr. Hall was selected president/CEO in 2012 her goals were not only to strengthen the foundation of the organization, but invigorate its members and stand-
ing in the community. We are happy to say she not only accomplished her goals but exceeded them. The African American Chamber of Commerce has a strong board, significant membership base, signature programs, and an annual breakfast which last year drew 500 attendees. She returned AACCW to a position of prominence in the community and our Board of Directors is forever grateful.” Phelps added, “Though we are sad to see her go, we are proud of the work we have been able to do together to renew the chamber. We look forward to continued collaboration with the Milwaukee Urban League on issues that affect all of us. The AACCW now looks forward to raising the organization to an expanded level of impact and effectiveness for our members throughout the State of Wisconsin.” Dr. Hall received a B.S. degree in educational psychology from Florida A&M University, an M.S. in administrative leadership from University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, and Doctorate in Educational Leadership from
Hall’s successor. Dr. Hall takes the helm at the Milwaukee Urban League on January 23, and Hollmon has agreed to serve as an advisor for a period of time to ensure a smooth and seamless transition. “We are grateful to Ralph Hollmon for all he has done for the Milwaukee Urban League and the broader Milwaukee community,” Fenceroy added.

Rebuilding Our Community Keep hope alive Trying to find a way to deal with some of the complex issues of urban America continues to be at the top of the list for most concerned residents. It is not an easy task, to say the least, especially when there is so much that needs to be done in terms providing better housing, reducing crime, making health care affordable, access to quality education, alleviating poverty, creating sustainable employment and dealing with overt racism. And this is just a partial list of issues to address...you perhaps have more. There is more than enough to deal with that gives even the staunchest advocate a reason to pause and to take a deep breath every now and then. Each day the beat goes on and the challenges do not get any easier as the cycle of issues keeps on repeat-
ing themselves regardless of who is running for the highest office in the land. There is so much to do and for many people... their lives too often hang in the balance by the decisions and policies made by those in charge. Finding real solutions to growing problems takes a lot of energy, vision,

goodwill, collaboration and building strong community relationships. I must admit to you that being out on the front lines is a job that is not clearly understood or appreciated most of the time. But people do know that it is necessary to have someone out there
helping some of the most vulnerable people of our society deal with homelessness, domestic violence, mental illness and drug addiction. If those issues are not addressed they can soon grow into something more. There is a great need in our society to have people standing and fighting for equal rights, human rights and voting rights. The sad reality is the fact that there are not enough people making that kind of difference. Sometimes progress is slow and sometimes good intentions are misunderstood, but it takes people who accept the calling to “be the difference” that keep things moving in the right direction. I know that a lot of people just believe that it is someone else’s job and that they are not a part of the solution. They would rather sit on the side-
lines and become a part of something that requires less personal responsibility or to just do things for comfort sake. But in the end and regardless of political views... “The needs are real and the people are real too.” Dr. Andrew Calhoun, can be contacted at andrewiiicalhoun@ gmail.com, Twitter #AC53, and Facebook.

Prayers for the work ahead for our children This has been a trying year for so many children in America — confused, consumed by and afraid of the intolerance, hatred and anger of adults. How do we keep the promises we have made to our children? How do we make a better America that values each and every child, regardless of skin color, faith, gender, sexual orientation, disability or immigration status? How do we remind our political leaders with unwavering clarity that every child is sacred and that God did not make two classes of children? This is not a time to weep. This is a time for work to ensure justice. As we look to a new year, here are a few prayers to help guide us for the work ahead. O God, help us recover our hope for our children's sake. Help us recover our courage for our children's sake. Help us to recover our discipline for our children's sake. Help us to recover our ability to work together for our children's sake. Help us to recover our values for our children's sake. Help us to recover a spirit of sacrifice for our children's sake. Help us to recover our faith in Thee for our children's sake. ** www.milwaukeetimesnews.com
quite legally. O God, forgive and transform our rich and powerful nation which thinks security rests in missiles and bombs rather than in mothers and in babies. O God, forgive and transform our rich nation for not giving You sufficient thanks by giving to others their daily bread.
We pray and stand for children who need our voice. We pray and stand for children blessed by parents who care and for children without a parent or anyone who cares at all. We pray and stand for children filled with joy and hope and for children whose days and nights are joyless. We pray and stand for children with hope and for children without hope whose spirits have been dimmed and dashed. We pray and stand for children high on play and study and laughter and for children high on heroin, cocaine and ecstasy. We pray and stand for children for whom we pray every day and for children who have no one to pray them along life’s way.
We pray and stand for children poised by circumstance to soar and conquer life’s challenges and for children bogged down by hunger and homelessness and violence and miseducation and struggling so hard to survive. We pray and stand for children who love to read and for children who can’t read at all, for children who learn with excitement and for children told by adults they cannot achieve. We pray and stand for children who we expect and help to do well and for children whom no one believes in or helps succeed. We pray for parents, grandparents, teachers, preachers, political and community leaders that we will be a help and not a hindrance for children we call our own and for
all the children God created who are part of our family too. ** O God, forgive and transform our rich nation where small babies die of cold quite legally. O God, forgive and transform our rich nation where small children suffer from hunger quite legally. O God, forgive and transform our rich nation where toddlers and school children die from guns sold quite legally. O God, forgive and transform our rich nation that lets children be the poorest group of citizens quite legally. O God, forgive and transform our rich nation that lets the rich continue to get more at the expense of the poor
O God, help us never to confuse what is quite legal with what is just and right in Your sight. Help us to stand together and vote to make America just and right for all Your children. Marian Wright Edelman is President of the Children's Defense Fund whose Leave No Child Behind® mission is to ensure every child a Healthy Start, a Head Start, a Fair Start, a Safe Start and a Moral Start in life and successful passage to adulthood with the help of caring families and communities.

The Counseling Corner
By Rev. Judith T. Lester, B.Min. M.Th
Ignorance is not bliss: The importance of sound biblical doctrine to God’s people (Part 1) “You, however, must teach what is appropriate to sound doctrine.” - (Titus 2:1) Doctrine is the teachings of the church as they relate to the truths about God. Since one’s faith is based on a specific message, that Christ died for our sins, (1 Cor. 15:3-4) sound doctrine thus becomes very important. Author, Myer Pearlman agrees. He writes: "Doctrine will always be necessary if men ask, 'where did I come from, what am I, and whither am I going?' It is often said; it does not matter what a man believes if he does right. This is one way of dismissing doctrine as having no importance in relation to life. But every person has a theology whether he knows it or not; man’s actions are influenced by what he believes." (Pearlman, Knowing the Doctrines of the Bible, p. 9). So, after hearing a sermon at a conference recently, that gave me the inspiration to address this topic. The message
was simple: every believer is commanded to study and to continually grow in grace. As one commentary notes, this process of spiritual growth begins by knowing Christ initially in regeneration and it continues in one’s deepening relationship with God. Both are crucial. Without the initial knowledge, there is no opportunity for growth. Sadly, because the Body of Christ has taken little time to study, the tragedy is that there are many church members who, if they were asked what they believe, could not
tell; and who, if they were asked why they believe it, would be equally helpless. Thus, this makes it necessary for the Christian to study so that he/she can tell in whom they believe and why. It is ignorance that binds knowledge. If God’s people lack a firm network of sound doctrinal roots, they are left defenseless before the cults, other persuasive false teachers of our day, and unable to safeguard their hearts and minds against error. (Matt. 22:29, Gal. 1:6-9 and 2 Tim. 4:3-4.) That is why Paul
warns Timothy to: “Watch your life and doctrine closely. Persevere in them, because if you do, you will save both yourself and your hearers” (1 Tim. 4:16). It is the study of doctrine and God’s Word that stabilizes us. Those who hope to survive any degree of emotional sanity and mental stability must have a solid diet of sound biblical theology, clearly understood, taught and consistently digested and regularly put into action. We should not meet the challenges of postmodernism, secular, non-Christian and contemporary worldview by abandoning the Bible, but by using it carefully, theologically and effectively. There is nothing on this earth as important as God’s Word to His people. It is one of the facts of the human mind, however, that a person thinks only as much as they must. It is not until one finds their faith opposed and attacked that they begin to think out its implications and begin to realize the riches of orthodoxy.
Where are you in the learning and growing process? Do you have a yearning in your spirit for a deeper study of God’s Word? Is doctrine important to you? Then, this writer invites you to join me this month in an examination of the importance and benefits of sound biblical doctrine.

portion of a company’s profits paid out to shareholders. One of the other places profits can go is back into the company. When talking about a mutual fund, dividends are generally made up of the dividends received from the stocks held by the fund or the interest received for the bond holdings of the fund. Typically, dividends are paid each quarter or twice a year. Diversified portfolio: An investment strategy that spreads your assets over a variety of stocks, bonds and other investments. This is fancier way of saying “don’tput-all-your-eg gs-in-onebasket.” This can also be referred to as “asset allocation” and your financial representative may talk about “looking at your asset allocation.” It simply means to think about how much money you’re putting into what type of investment. Asset allocation affects both the risk and the return you can expect from your financial assets. Dollar cost averaging: Investing smaller, fixed amounts at regular intervals, like $100 per month. Load: A fee charged by certain mutual funds. These fees can be charged when you purchase a fund (frontend load) or when you sell a fund (back-end load). Retirement plan distribution: A payout of funds from a retirement plan. These funds can come from a company-sponsored 401(k) or an Individual Retirement Account (IRA). Different retirement plans will have different options as to when and under what circumstances you can take your money from the plan. You’ll typically want to wait until you are at least 59 1/2 years old before taking money out of your qualified retirement plan to avoid early-withdrawal penalties. Retirement plan roll over: Transferring funds from one retirement plan account (e.g. 401(k), IRA, etc.) to another retirement plan account. The funds are not subject to tax or penalties, and continue the tax deferred growth. Insurance words Cash surrender value: The amount of money you’d
receive if you decided to cancel your permanent life insurance contract, before it becomes payable upon death or maturity. Cash value: The money you can access from tapping the accumulated value of a permanent life insurance contract. Contracts vary from insurer to insurer, though, so be sure to talk with your financial representative to make sure you understand your life insurance contract. Elimination period: The amount of time you’ll have to wait until insurance benefits are paid. In general, the shorter the elimination period the more expensive the contract and vice versa. Exclusion ratio: A ratio applied to each annuity payment to find the portion of the payment that is subject to income tax and the portion, which is considered to be an income tax free return of your investment in the annuity contract. Say you invested $10,000 per year in an annuity for 30 years, for a total investment of $300,000. Because of compounding, this amount might appreciate to $1,010,700 by the time you begin withdrawals—$710,700 more than your original investment. You’ll pay taxes on that $710,700 but not on the original $300,000, which means in this scenario you’ll receive about one-third of your withdrawals income tax free. Living withdrawal benefit: As applied to an annuity contract, a living withdrawal benefit usually guarantees the annuity payments and/ or guarantees a minimum income over a specified period to the annuitant and/or beneficiary of the contract. Rider: Special coverage added to insurance contracts and annuity products to cover additional items or provide extra benefits. With life insurance, one popular rider is a “waiver of premium,” allowing you to keep your coverage without paying if you become ill or disabled. These add-ons cost extra but can help you customize your insurance so you’re covered for special circumstances. Preferred risk: Insurance companies reward positive decisions and lifestyle choices by offering reduced insurance rates. Or if a doctor’s checkup shows a clean bill of health, it can help to lower your health or life insurance premiums. Special risk: If your lifestyle or circumstances suggest that the odds are better
than average that you’ll collect on your insurance, you’ll be deemed “special risk” and pay a higher price for the coverage. Standard risk: When you buy any type of insurance, the standard price you pay for that insurance will depend on your age, health, lifestyle and other factors affecting the odds that you’ll collect on that insurance. If you meet the company ‘standards’ you’re entitled to purchase insurance without special restrictions or extra fees. Financial terms aren’t always easy to understand. A first step in selecting a financial advisor is making sure you’re working with someone who is speaking a language you understand and never be afraid to ask for clarification about a term you don’t recognize or understand.

Milwaukee Public Schools move some schools to early start calendar in 2017 Secondary, IB and year round schools move to August start date
The Milwaukee Board of School Directors voted unanimously at their Thursday, December 29, 2016 meeting to move all secondary schools, International Baccalaureate schools and year-round schools to an early start on August 14, 2017. The board also asked the administration to pursue further research on changing the K-8 elementary school calendar in the future. Traditional elementary schools will start on Sept. 5, 2017. The early start calendar proposal is part of the dis-
schools: • The four-year high school graduation rate in MPS is 58.2 percent, compared to 88.4 percent statewide • Eighty-three of the district's 158 schools remain on the state's "Fails to Meet Expectations" or "Meets Few Expectations" list • The average ACT composite score in MPS is 16.5, versus 20.1 statewide "I want to thank the Board trict's plan to improve out- moved up a grade in the for standing up for our comes for students. While state report card, there is young people and supporting MPS schools are showing much work to do, particular- an opportunity for students signs of growth and have ly in high schools and middle to have this extra learning
time," said MPS Superintendent Darienne Driver. The proposed change to the calendar allows for the addition of a "J-term", a four-week optional credit recovery and enrichment program in June in between the end of the regular school year and traditional summer school in July. The additional learning time the J-term provides, along with the early start in mid-August, gives students more time to catch up, keep up and get ahead in school.

Simply add watermelon to see resolution results
T
FAMILY FEATURES
he start of a new year is the perfect time for new beginnings, including a fresh start on eating healthy. The trick to making this year’s resolution stick is introducing smart eating habits so tasty and easy that your eating plan becomes more a way of life than a short-lived commitment. One easy way to achieve that habit is by adding watermelon to your daily diet, giving your body a low-calorie option to curb an appetite for unhealthy snacks. Set reasonable goals. A deprivation diet is destined to fail because eventually your body will rebel. Instead, aim for well-rounded meals with moderate portions. If weight loss is your ultimate goal, know that losing two pounds a week is generally considered the maximum. Satisfy your sweet tooth. Everyone, even the most dedicated health food fans, experience cravings from time to time. Most experts agree that it’s OK to answer your sweet tooth – in moderation of course. Before you take the plunge, think about whether there are other options that could be a good substitute. For example, instead of a sugary candy bar, consider a naturally sweet slice of watermelon for a cholesterol-free, fat-free way to satisfy cravings at only 80 calories per 2-cup serving. Watermelon contains fiber and water, and packs a wealth of health benefits, including strong levels of vitamins A, C and B6. Stay well hydrated. During the cooler winter months, it’s easy to let water consumption slide because you’re not feeling the heat and thirst you do in warmer weather. However, the dry winter air can also be hard on your body, so it’s important to keep that water flowing year-around. Most adults should aim for eight glasses of water each day, but you can also boost your water intake with foods that have a high water content, such as watermelon, which is 92 percent water and contains protein and fiber so you are satisfied on fewer calories while boosting your overall hydration.
