Ezekiel Community Development Corp. unveils fully renovated house
On Saturday, January 18, 2014 the term 'open house' was taken literally by the Ezekiel Community Development Corporation (ECDC) as the not-for-profit corporation officially unlocked the doors and displayed its first fully renovated and refurbished home. The open house, held at 5053 N. 83rd St. on Milwaukee’s northwest side transformed an unoccupied foreclosed property into opportunities for job creation, affordable housing and stable neighborhoods as part of Ezekiel’s innovative approach addressing multiple urban issues. It will showcase the craftsmanship and quality features entirely performed by minority contractors on the single family residence. Purchased from
the City of Milwaukee, the remodeled home will be sold at an affordable market price with all profits reinvested to purchase additional homes where the process will be repeated. Backed by Milwaukee Inner-City Congregations Allied for Hope (MICAH), Ezekiel Community Development Corporation is supported by contributions from individual donors, companies, foundations and faith-based organizations.
Pictured at the event are Mayor Tom Barrett, ECDC founder and president Don Utech; ECDC director and Pyramid Electric president Jim Gaillard; and ECDC PR volunteer Steve Johnstone.

Free tax preparation service begins
Preparation of state and federal taxes by a Milwaukee organization has begun helping the public for another tax season The Milwaukee Asset Building Coalition and the Social Development Commission (SDC) are again doing taxes for free for Milwaukee County residents. The tax services are offered at no charge so eligible residents can get all of their tax returns back and avoid high preparation fees or refund anticipation loans. The tax preparation is being offered Monday through Saturday at SDC’s three sites at 4041 N. Richards Street, 2701 S. Chase Street and 6848 N. Teutonia Avenue. A fourth team of IRS certified tax preparers is also at sites on different days of the week located across Mil-
waukee County. To view the schedule of sites, dates and times of the free tax service as well as see what you will need to bring with you, go to www.cr-sdc.org/DefaultFilePile/Programs/Flyers/ VITAMABCTaxPrepf lyer_2014_English12-20-13. pdf. The tax service is in its 13th season of helping residents maximize their tax returns. During the first 12 years of its existence, the program has returned more than $146 million in tax refunds and credits back to residents and the local economy. The program will run through April 15.

Fellowships, student loan forgiveness programs part of new Nurses for Wisconsin initiative Four University of Wisconsin System nursing programs are offering new fellowship and loan forgiveness programs to encourage nurses to pursue doctoral degrees or postdoctoral training and assume nurse educator positions in Wisconsin. The overall goal is to address the nursing faculty shortage. The $3.2 million Nurses for Wisconsin initiative — funded through a UW System Economic Development Incentive Grant — comes in response to predictions that Wisconsin could see a shortage of 20,000 nurses by 2035. A current shortage of nurse educators in Wisconsin greatly limits the number of students who can be accepted into nursing programs in the state, said Dr. Linda Young, dean of the College of Nursing and Health Sciences at UW-Eau Claire. "UW System nursing programs have the leadership, academic programs and curriculum necessary to increase
the number of graduates from the baccalaureate programs," Young said. "But a shortage of nurse educators prevents us from enrolling more nursing students in our programs. This collaborative initiative to invest in nurse educators is an important first step in meeting the need to enroll more nursing students for Wisconsin." In 2012-13, 50-80 percent of qualified undergraduate students who applied to nursing schools at four UW System institutions were denied admission primarily because there was not enough qualified nursing faculty to teach them, Young said. Led by UW-Eau Claire, the new initiative will provide fellowships to nurses enrolling in doctoral programs at UW-Eau Claire, UW-Madison, UW-Milwaukee or UW Oshkosh. All pre- and postdoctoral fellowships will provide opportunities for mentorship in the nurse educator role.
The predoctoral fellowships will support students pursuing either Ph.D.s or doctor of nursing practice degrees. Predoctoral nursing fellows will receive tuition, fees and stipends in exchange for a three-year commitment to teach at a UW system nursing school. Postdoctoral fellowships to advance nursing research and evidence-based practice also will be supported. The postdoctoral nursing fellows will receive a renewable one-year fellowship, with stipend and benefits, as part of a three-
year teaching commitment in a UW system nursing program. In addition, the four project schools are offering loan forgiveness as an incentive to attract new nursing faculty with a Ph.D. or doctor of nursing practice degree. This program will repay up to $50,000 of the new hire's student loans in exchange for a three-year teaching commitment. According to the Wisconsin Center for Nursing, the current average age of Wisconsin nursing faculty members is 58 years, and almost six out of 10 faculty plan to leave the workforce within 10 years. This points to the need to not only increase nursing faculty numbers beyond current levels, but also to offset those retirements, Young said. "To meet anticipated workforce needs, strategies for increasing the number of nursing faculty need to be dramatic and immediate,"
ACLU of Wisconsin pleased that Sheboygan Falls lifted suspension on basketball players On Friday, January 17, 2014, Sheboygan Falls School District officials lifted a suspension that had been imposed on two basketball players, the Sheboygan Falls News reported. Jordan and Juwaun Jackson, who attend Sheboygan Falls High School, were suspended from a basketball game because officials believed they displayed gang signs in a photo published in a local newspaper. Parents allegedly complained about the photo to school officials, who then contacted the Sheboygan Falls Police Department. Earlier on the Friday, ACLU of Wisconsin executive director Chris Ahmuty
sent a letter to Jean Born, the school district administrator, asking her to reinstate the brothers, who are African American. The letter also requested records about the school’s equal education and nondiscrimination policies, in order to investigate the school’s efforts to comply with existing state law and new federal guidelines, which discuss “exclusionary discipline practices which disproportionately impact students of color.” Friday Ahmuty issued this statement in response to the reversal of the suspension: “The ACLU of Wisconsin is pleased that the Sheboygan Falls School District has
lifted the one-game suspension of two basketball players for allegedly displaying gang signs. "We believe the suspension was unwarranted based on the facts and the law protecting public school students from violations of their rights. "While details of the appeals hearing and dismissal are not known, the ACLU of Wisconsin believes that the district’s reversal was the only reasonable outcome. "We hope that the Sheboygan Falls School District, its teachers, students and parents can learn from this incident not to jump to unwarranted and possibly biased conclusions.
"The ACLU of Wisconsin’s investigation of the district’s policies and practices regarding student rights and nondiscrimination will continue. We will share our findings with the district and community. If necessary we will offer our assistance to improve district policies and practices.” The ACLU of Wisconsin Foundation is a non-profit, nonpartisan, private organization whose more than 6,000 members support its efforts to defend the civil rights and liberties of all Wisconsin residents.

Being Frank The beginning of a new year is always exciting. Many people bring in a new year with festive celebrations. Other people bring in the New Year meditating on what they want to accomplish with the fresh 365 days. Now that the celebrating and meditating is over, how will you use 2014? A new year is like a fresh start. The calendar changes and it is an excellent opportunity for change in oneself. To fully embrace the opportunity a new year brings people make resolutions. In most cases the resolutions are small, relatively minor changes. One popular resolution is those who suffer from obesity will decide to start working out to lose weight. Outside of the gyms being packed for the first three weeks of January, this usually accomplishes nothing. What if you took the change of the year and used it to change yourself totally? What if the change of the year meant the opportunity to change everything you

How will you use this new year?
can control about yourself ? 2014 can be a turning point mentally similar to the way an extreme makeover can be physically. You just have to ask yourself what it is you want to accomplish or do. If one wants to be wealthy then one needs to have a look at their talents and position today. This realistic look isn’t to depress but to give you a solid foundation on where you are. To analyze oneself without rose-colored glasses is an easy, yet hard task to do. Sometimes a true self-analy-
sis will take away the lies our ego has told ourselves. The stripping away of personal lies is one of the most freeing acts a person can do to pursue their true goals. A new year is a chance to do this. Another thing people claim to want is happiness. Happiness is something that can’t be bought and no one can give it to you. A true look in the mirror of the mind can help a person realize why they aren’t happy at this time. In 2014 a person can find the
reason or thoughts that make them unhappy and change them. It may be November before the happiness kicks in but at least you will be prepared for 2015. Harmony is something people want but they don’t know it exists. To be in any situation where confusion reigns in your environment and head is insanity. Many people believe that confusion is normal and to not have confusion which equates to problems is abnormal. Ask yourself: Are you more engaged in a conversation if it is about someone else’s problems? If the answer is yes, then you enjoy confusion. Just maybe the lack of harmony exists in you because confusion is your drug of choice. In 2014 you can kick the confusion habit. Many of us are judge, jury and executioner when it comes to others. When we see something in others we don’t like, it could be facets of ourselves being reflected back at us. If you look at other people as a learning
experience one can learn a lot about oneself. Before you look at someone and begin to text a friend about how the person looks or acts, look at you. Is that person’s behavior something you live with? It’s 2014, people; let’s be honest with ourselves. How you choose to use the fresh slate of days 2014 gives you is a personal decision. No one can tell you whether your decision is right or wrong because it’s just that, yours. It’s 2014; what are you going to do with the time?

The safety of Milwaukee's citizens should not be undercut By Urban Media News Deadly violence in Milwaukee streets disrupts communities in every corner of the city. Families who have lost loved ones to senseless violence have cried out to law enforcement and local officials demanding help. According to Forbes Magazine, Milwaukee is the 10th most dangerous city in the
United States, with a crime rate of 1,295 per 100,000. We’re barely into the last year of Governor Scott Walker’s first term, but it’s already abundantly clear that Scott Walker’s backward approach to public safety has not changed since his days as Milwaukee County Executive. Back then, Scott Walker took chunks out of Milwau-

kee’s public safety budgets and allowed dozens of funded positions to go unstaffed even as he lauded the importance of public safety in Wisconsin’s largest city. Now, as governor, Scott Walker and his administration have again failed to serve the people of Milwaukee and Wisconsin. Milwaukee’s ShotSpotter program, which allows law enforcement to efficiently and accurately trace and respond to gunfire, is the latest casualty of Walker’s budget-slashing frenzy. ShotSpotter has a proven track record of success. In June 2013, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported that between May 23 and May 27, the system detected 54 incidents, a 30 percent reduction in detected gunfire since the program’s 2012 Milwaukee launch. In spite of this, the Republican-controlled Joint Finance Committee upheld Governor Walker’s decision to reject a community policing grant for $445,000 to expand ShotSpotter during the 2013-2015 budget approval process. In the wake of the decision, Police Chief Edward Flynn accused Walker of attempting to turn Wisconsin’s lagging economy around by facilitating the decline of the state’s biggest city. In typical fashion, Walker spokesperson Jocelyn Webster responded to Flynn’s (Continued on pg. 18)

Honoring Dr. King the man, not the icon By Paul Schmitz, CEO, Public Allies Dr. Martin Luther King was a transformational leader who inspired our nation and bent the arc of history toward justice. When we remember Dr. King only by his greatest victories and quotations, however, we do a disservice to him and ourselves. The iconic King teaches us incomplete lessons about leadership and the struggle for social change that can only be completed by understanding the true, threedimensional Dr. King. Over the years, many have mistakenly described Rosa Parks as an accidental activist, a tired seamstress who did not intend to start a movement. In fact, Parks was a long-time NAACP activist who had been fighting Jim Crow long before she refused to give up her seat in December 1955. It may be more accurate to describe Dr. King as an accidental activist. His emergence as leader of the Montgomery Improvement Association (MIA), which led the bus boycott, was by draft more than ambition. He was chosen because he was young (26 years old), smart, and new to town, so he had less to lose. Nevertheless, his maiden speech to the MIA demonstrated his brilliance and vision as he positioned the boycott within the larger historical advance of freedom and equality. The Gandhian methods that came to define Dr. King also did not come to him automatically. When the great labor organizer Bayard Rustin arrived in Montgomery, he found Dr. King carrying a gun with armed men stationed outside his home. Rustin advised him to ditch the guns and recommended to Dr. King and E.D. Nixon, the local NAACP leader, that all the indicted members of the MIA dress in their Sunday best, march to the courthouse, and turn themselves in. Rustin became one of several mentors and advisors Dr. King counted on throughout the tenure of his leadership. MIA's success was also the result of many leaders, including E.D. Nixon; Joanna Robinson, whose Women's Political Council had the idea for the boycott and organized it; the young lawyer Fred Gray; Rev. Ralph Abernathy, who was Dr. King's partner in the struggle; Rufus Lewis, who organized the
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. 350-car carpool that transported people for the year of the boycott; Inez Ricks and Georgia Gilmore, who formed cooking clubs that sold food to finance the carpools; Clifford and Virginia Durr, the leading white liberals in town, who advised and raised support; and Aurelia Boyton and Claudette Colvin, other women who had refused to sit at the back of the bus. The list of leaders is much longer, and the reality is that the victory over segregation in Montgomery took the leadership of many. Among all these leaders, Dr. King certainly distinguished himself through his courage, moral and historical vision, political savvy, and remarkable oratorical skills. Bayard Rustin, Ella Baker, Stanley Levison, and other long-time organizers saw his potential and created the Southern Christian Leadership Council (SCLC) as a platform for his leadership to build on the victory in Montgomery. Not all civil rights leaders were impressed, though. The NAACP continued to believe that the battle would be won through judicial and legislative fights, not grassroots action. Top NAACP lawyer Thurgood Marshall diminished the grassroots action, criticizing Dr. King as an opportunistic rabble rouser and claiming that desegregation was men's work, not children's work. After Montgomery, the struggle did not advance easily or successfully for Dr. King and the SCLC. Over the next several years, he led several unsuccessful campaigns in towns such as St. Augustine, FL and Albany, GA. Meanwhile, new leadership emerged from students as the Greensboro, N.C., sitins, the Freedom Rides organized by Congress for Racial Equality, and the creation of Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC)
Rebuilding our Dr. Andrew Calhoun, Ed.D. Community BySpecial for the Milwaukee Times Passing the torch “No work is insignificant. All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be undertaken with painstaking excellence.” Those were the words of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., as he reflected on the value of labor, its impact and meaning in America. As we pause this week to remember the work and legacy of Dr. King, we also must keep in mind to teach and demonstrate those values to this and the next generation. The King Holiday continues to grow in its importance as more and more communities and businesses embrace the significance of what he believed in and stood for. It’s just good business. MLK Day is not just another holiday, but it is a day in which to refocus and to reflect on what is important in life. Without a doubt, Dr. King's life’s work helped us all to live better and to achieve more. We must also remind ourselves that it took a lot for his birthday to become a national holiday… of course that is another story all to itself. In the light of Dr. King’s work, it is always easy to just stay the way you are and not change a thing, but in the reality of life it is impossible generated new energy and activism. Many of the SNCC activists were critical of Dr. King and the SCLC, especially concerned that their topdown view of leadership did not build, trust, or respect local grassroots leadership. The NAACP also continued to be as much a rival as a partner in their campaigns. By spring 1963, some in the media described Dr. King as a relic of the '50s and questioned the effectiveness of his protest strategies. His Birmingham, AL, campaign seemed headed for another failure as he struggled to recruit adult volunteers. With the future of his leadership and the SCLC at stake, Dr. King made a risky and dangerous decision to enact organizer James Bevel's plan for a children's march. On May 2, 1963, over 1,000 children marched, facing a brutal police force armed with dogs and fire hoses. Over 600 were arrested, and before long, over 2,600 kids were in jail. The Birmingham march reignited the movement. It inspired protests that led to 14,733 arrests in 186 cities and struck at the conscience (Continued on pg.17)
to remain the same. Regardless of how much we desire
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. to keep things the way we found them, enjoy what we have; we all know that change happens and it occurs sooner than later. The world is a place of constant motion… ins and outs… ups and downs… dips and curves. And when you take an honest look at things, we all are continuously changing, little bit by little bit. It could be because of age… it could be because of more knowledge… it could be because of more experience… or it just could be that we are evolving and adapting to what is happening as we go along.
The greatest thing that we can do is to empower those in the upcoming generation to take the lead. It is to begin the process of passing things of importance on to them. Keeping the status quo will not be enough. This new generation has some new ideas, dreams, visions, and a boarder way of thinking and seeing things. We should not be afraid of the new leadership that is emerging in the next generation of African Americans, they will bring a few changes, … spice it up or add a few new twists they say… to many things that worked well in the past. Of course there will be a price to be paid… but they will make the best of the legacy we leave behind." So we can only expect that more progress will be made in making our nation better, and bring true light to what God intended.

The Counseling Corner By Rev. Judith T. Lester, B.Min. M.Th
Taming the busyness beast in your life (Conclusion) But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. - Matthew 6:33 This month we have been discussing setting priorities and taming the busyness beast in your life. Jesus reminds us in Matthew 6:33 to keep our priorities straight. There’s nothing wrong with being busy, just so long as your busyness is productive and it allows room for God. When we put God first, God assures us we will have all the other things we need. Unfortunately for some of us, our busyness has taken over our lives. We are going so fast and doing so much, that when we do finally slow down and see where we are, we don’t have a clue how we got there. I readily admit I have been guilty at times of allowing the busyness beast to consume me. During certain times of the year, I get tremendously busy. In between ministering to God’s
people, speaking at conferences (locally and nationally), taking classes, fulfilling writing contracts and other personal demands on my time, I often found myself feeding and nurturing the busyness beast. It has been at those times, I have had to learn to either discipline myself and plan my day/week appropriately or risk threatening and upsetting my spiritual equilibrium. In our conclusion, the following are seven tips that have helped me in taming the busyness beast. While the list summarized below is obviously more nuanced than what can be written in this limited context, the general proposition is to at least give you a running start with taming the busyness beast in your life. 1. Make God your #1 priority. Reading Scripture, meditating, praying and even singing hymns or spiritual melodies in your heart is very soothing, relaxing and spiritually uplifting. In order for your life to be blessed, God
must come first. 2. Prioritize what matters. Don’t wake up each day thinking it all has to get done. Instead, stay focused on what needs to be done. 3. You can’t do it all! Chances are there many things you WANT to do in any given day or week. This is why you must set priorities. You don’t have to complete everything. Focus on the right stuff first. Focus on the things you see need your attention and delegate where needed. Don’t feed the busyness beast by trying to do it all! 4. Get organized. If you feel your life is spinning out of control, chances are
you need a little organization. Review, purge and clean whatever and wherever attention is needed. The more you can organize your life, the greater chance you have of taming that wild beast. 5. Embrace imperfect perfection. This is very important in taming the busyness beast. You are NOT perfect. Accept that fact and move on! Embrace the imperfection and don’t expect others to be perfect either. 6. You can’t make everyone happy. Must more be said? 7. Enjoy life! Don’t let the busyness beast consume all of your time. It only makes the beast feel loved, nurtured and appreciated. Take time to have fun, enjoy life, family and friends. Take mini weekend get-a-ways. Ladies, plan a day at the spa! Men, go fishing. Get some fresh air, take a walk, or simply sit and have a good laugh with family and friends. Rejuvenate to reinvigorate! Beloved, if you have allowed the busyness beast to
consume you, don’t ignore him. Ignoring it is like feeding the beast chocolate cake all day long. He loves stress, tension and anxiety. They make him grow and thrive! Instead, begin this New Year with a personal resolve to tame him. The first step of course is to recognize he exists. Secondly, you must deal with him by refusing to continue feeding him. If you have already conquered the busyness beast, share your tips with others on how you did it! And… don’t forget to share a few with me.

Bulletin Board Devoted MPS teacher awarded for long-standing support of Dr. King celebration program Milwaukee Public Schools and the Marcus Center for the Performing Arts recognized a teacher Friday, January 17, 2014, for long-standing support of the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Celebration event — now in its 30th year — through student-oriented programming. Katherine Katter, an English teacher at MPS’ Milwaukee High School of the Arts, was honored for contributing to the writing and art competitions annually and incorporating the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. program into her teaching curriculum. For many years, Mrs. Katter has guided and encouraged students through their participation in the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Writing Contest. Throughout the years, several students under her supervision have been presented on stage as first, second, or third place winners. Mrs. Katter’s teaching exhibits an understanding
and appreciation of the importance of the written and performing arts in the lives and education of youth. For her exceptional efforts and dedication to the program, Mrs. Katter was given the surprise recognition in her classroom with a plaque, roses, balloons, a pair of tickets to Phantom of the Opera showing at the Marcus Center for Performing Arts, and an iPad mini. The award is sponsored by McDonald’s Restaurants of Southeastern Wisconsin. The annual citywide King celebration took place at the Marcus Center on Sunday, January 19, 2014 and showcased the diverse talents of Milwaukee’s ethnic performing arts groups.

Talking Health with Dr. Carter
By Dr. Lester Carter Owner, Carter Drug Store
Seeds of life! (part 2) Nature’s nutrient powerhouse
There are many quotes relating to seeds. However, this one from Genesis reflects the truth of seeds: Seeds are the genesis of life. Every healthy seed contains the spark of life. In our bodies, that “whole, fresh, and lively” vitality is translated into nutrition and energy. We eat many kinds of seeds. In reality, they are the basis of our food intake, taking the form of beans, cereal grains, pseudo-grains like quinoa and amaranth, nuts, and the small seeds we discuss here. This latter category, small seeds, has been gaining popularity among health conscious eaters over the last decade. The trend began with the popularization of the flaxseed, one of seven seeds covered in a recent issue of Nutrition News. There is only one reason – besides possible enjoyment – to integrate seeds into your life and that is nutrition. These little dynamos are powerhouses of nutrition. Ounce per ounce, they outdo any other whole food
you could name every time. Sunflower Seed – Here is the original health food seed. In the 60s, “health nuts” joined parrots in nibbling this delicious, nutritious seed. Many were the sore lips from cracking dozens of salted hulls. Today the seeds are universally available in this form (and are a favorite diet food). Plus, they are easy to come by hulled, raw, roasted, dry roasted, salted, no salt, organic or not. They are a staple at our house (hulled, raw, unsalted): on oatmeal, in granola, on salads, and by the handful. We love them! Called “The Amazing Kernel”, according to research completed by Dr. K. Phillips of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, sunflower kernels have been shown to protect against cardiovascular and other diseases and to contain antioxidants and anticarcinogens (anti-cancer). In particular, sunflower seeds are rich in vitamin E, betaine, phenolic acids, choline, arginine, and lignans. In addition, they
have an exceptionally high phytosterol content and are a good source of magnesium as well. In 2008, Science News reported that a mini-protein from sunflower seeds could be the key to stopping the metastasizing of tumors in prostate cancer patients. Jonathan Harris, who conducted the study, commented that the spread of cancer to the spine is far more deadly than the originating tumor. A second study from the mid-2000s showed the potential of a rare substance from the sunflower plant (DCQA) to interrupt the reproduction of the AIDS virus. Attempts to follow up on this study showed that work is being done to isolate
the action of DCQA, leading “to the discovery of more selective and potent inhibitors in the future” (i.e., drugs). Flaxseed – This is the seed that launched a thousand seedeaters. Because it is a source of non-animal omega-3 fatty acids, the trend continues. However, the properties of flaxseed go beyond its omega-3 contents. Flax contains seven times more lignans than sesame seed, the next contender. It is also a potent antioxidant with an ORAC rating of over 19,000. (Pomegranates are 10,500.) According to Katherine Zeratsky, R.D., L.D., writing for the Mayo Clinic, “flaxseed may help lower total blood cholesterol and lowdensity lipoprotein (LDL, or “bad”) cholesterol levels”, both of which help reduce the risk of heart disease. Flaxseed also works to stabilize blood sugar. Zeratsky reinforces our contention that flaxseed is best used when ground before eating. Because of its
high fiber content, flaxseed should not be taken at the same time as medications or supplements. Also, be sure to drink lots of water when eating any high fiber food. Incidentally, flaxseed helps maintain regularity. The flax plant has been used since antiquity to produce linen cloth. More recently, before flaxseed was processed as food, it was called linseed. Industrial linseed oil remains popular as a preservative for wood. Also, at one time, the gelatinous substance achieved from soaking the seeds was used to “set” hair in curls.

Premature ‘water breaking’ during pregnancy linked to bacteria High levels of bacteria are associated with water breaking prematurely in pregnant women, a new study indicates. Researchers arrived at their findings by analyzing samples of amniotic sacs (fetal membranes) from 48 women after they gave birth. The report is published in the Jan. 8 online issue of the journal PLoS One. Nearly one-third of early deliveries are associated with premature rupture of fetal membranes, and it’s important to learn more about why this happens, the researchers noted. “Complications of preterm births can have longterm health effects for both mothers and children,” study author Dr. Amy Murtha, associate professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Duke University School of Medicine, said in a Duke news release. Further research is needed to determine whether the presence of high levels of bacteria is a cause or result of fetal membrane weakening, the investigators said. The researchers are now investigating whether certain types of bacteria may increase the risk of premature
rupture of fetal membranes. Identifying such bacteria could lead to the development of preventive treatments. “For instance, if we think that certain bacteria are associated with premature rupturing of the membranes, we can screen for this bacteria early in pregnancy,” Murtha said. Treating the affected women with antibiotics might reduce their risk for this problem, she added.

The Artery holds a call for performance ideas
In May, 2013 the Creational Trails team, a collaboration between the Greater Milwaukee Committee's Innovation in Milwaukee initiative and Art Milwaukee, received a $350,000 grant from ArtPlace America. Through this grant, beintween has announced a $40,000 call for performance ideas to showcase the diverse talent of the community along the artery next summer. What is the artery? It is an 8 acre linear corridor extending the Beerline trail to from Riverwest into Harambee. We imagine this parcel, once a seven-track railyard, can be transformed into a place by connecting people to a space. Similar to principals of creative placemaking, we seek performance ideas that encourage safety and comfort the artery as a place to connect with one another. We welcome ideas that involve the trail, the plants, the buildings, the sidewalks, the bridge, the parking lots, the fences, anything you find interesting in the artery! We are inspired by the imagination of Kid President who asks us to ''Create something that will make the world awesome" in his pep talk. We are open to many types of performance, including ones we haven't imagined:
jazz, relay races, spoken word, barbeques, back flips. walking, gardening, treasure hunts, dancing, hugs, basketball, cooking, yoga, games, pep talks ... we want to hear what you want to do! Of all the performance ideas submitted, 40 will be invited to pitch at a talent show in late February to a panel of jurors representing local and regional leadership. The top 20 ideas will each be awarded $500 each to perform at the artery this summer; up to $1,500 is available for the production and documentation of each performance idea. Season one at the artery will feature a select number of performances hosted outdoors, from May through August, emceed by a different local artist, on the last Saturday of each month (weather permitting). An encore event planned in autumn will showcase the best performances as determined by an audience vote from each of the summer events. Submissions are due February 7, 2014 by 5:00 p.m.; the talent show on February
2. Those reflecting cultural sensitivity to these neighborhoods will be reviewed favorably 3. Performances ideas can be experimental instructional, local mobile, spiritual, scientific, historical fictional, temporary, reoccurring, spontaneous or permanent 4. Individuals or 22nd (location TBD) is open to the public. Beintween is seeking a diverse range of performance ideas or creative expressions that can be performed or installed outdoors along the artery by an individual or a team of any skill level. This call is open to people of all ages who live or work in the neighborhoods highlighted in the map, or whose idea supports the people in these neighborhoods. To learn more about Creational Trails and the Artery, or to submit an idea visit www.creationaltrails.com.

of our nation and the White House, leading to a gamechanging civil rights speech by the previously reluctant President Kennedy. Bayard Rustin and A. Phillip Randolph of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters picked up on that momentum and planned what became the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom where, a few months later, Dr. King, the 14th speaker of the day, shared his own game-changing dream. Despite the dream and legislative victories on civil rights and voting rights, Dr. King and the SCLC continued to struggle. By 1966, the SCLC had expenses of over $30,000 a month but was only bringing in $8,000 a month. Evaluations of the SCLC's Voter Education Project and other programs found poor management and limited results. There were intense staff rivalries and low morale, as SCLC left behind a trail of embittered communities. Even the MIA that launched the movement resigned its SCLC membership. There was continued conflict with SNCC and the NAACP along with President Johnson, who, after a promising start on civil rights, was increasingly focused on war. Amid the turmoil, Dr. King began to see that their celebrated legislative and judicial victories were doing little for the ghettos. He moved up to Chicago to address racism in Northern cities and found as much if not more hate than he had seen in the South. He began speaking out more radically against the three evils -- racism, militarism, and materialism -- with increased force. His Riverside Church speech against the Vietnam War was reviewed in Life Magazine as "demagogic slander that sounded like a script from Radio Hanoi." Reviewing his book Where Do We Go From Here? Chaos or Community, The New York Times argued that he had been outstripped by his times. He began working on the Poor People's Campaign and speaking about the need for greater redistribution of economic wealth and political power in America. His popularity in national polls declined rapidly as he expressed his more radical vision of justice. Tragically, an assassin's bullet took him from us as he began implementing that vision. The Dr. King we honor today does not often resemble the Dr. King I've described. The radicalism of his vision, the courageous risks he took personally and organizationally, and the continued personal and organizational struggles he persevered
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. through for 13 years are not remembered as much as his great speeches. Dr. King was a historic leader who helped dismantle Jim Crow laws and pass major civil rights legislation and inspired millions to believe in the cause of greater racial and social justice. But he was not a popular or perfect leader. David Garrow concluded his Pulitzer Prize-winning biography of Dr. King with a quotation of an educator and friend of Dr. King, Charles Willie: "By idolizing those whom we honor, we do a disservice both to them and ourselves. By exalting the accomplishments of Martin Luther King into a legendary tale that is annually told, we fail to recognize his humanity -- his personal and public struggles -- that are similar to yours and mine. By idolizing those whom we honor, we fail to realize what we could do likewise." When we measure today's leaders against the actual Dr. King, not the iconic Dr. King, it opens us much more to their and our own potential. We should recognize that our young leaders are not fully developed. We need to give them room to take risks, make mistakes, fail, and evolve their vision. How many philanthropists who fund Martin Luther King Day would have funded him if they'd reviewed the SCLC's program results, internal management issues, and fiscal crises? It would be better for them to take chances on leaders than to honor him by supporting risk-averse celebrations and service projects. Some ask: Where is the next Dr. King? Maybe we just aren't allowing such leadership to fully develop. Dr. King had particular gifts of vision, courage, and brilliance, but he could not have given those gifts without the mentorship, partnership, and courageous acts of many other leaders. The continued struggle for greater social justice in America needs the leadership of the many. We need your gifts. Honor Dr. King not by admiring his speeches but by taking action on the issues you are passionate about.

JANUARY ANNOUNCEMENTS The safety of Milwaukee's citizens
FOR THE BEST DEAL, COME SEE GEORGE NEAL
Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper is now providing the following web design services.
(Continued from pg. 3) words by providing lip-service to the issue, calling the governor a friend to taxpayers whose goals are set on improving the quality of life for the people of the city. Joint Finance Committee co-chair Senator Alberta Darling (R-River Hills), also attempted to reaffirm Walker’s motivations, claiming that the rejection was motivated by a desire to create jobs. The Walker administration’s rhetoric simply doesn’t match reality. Today, crime continues to plague Milwaukee’s neighborhoods, while job growth lags well behind the national average. Last week, Republicans’ fervent defense of Walker’s decision to undercut ShotSpotter seems to have vanished. In what can only be described as a sudden change of heart, the Assembly committed to match Milwaukee County’s $175,000 funding of the program. While any amount of money toward ShotSpotter represents an important step toward a safer Milwaukee, the agreed-upon sum falls nearly $300,000 short of the original request. As city blocks and neighborhoods in Milwaukee continue to go unprotected due to a lack of funding, Scott Walker and state Republicans should make a true commitment to public safety and turning things around for the largest economic engine in the state.
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." - Martin Luther King, Jr.
