Peace for Change Alliance President Tracey Dent, along with WestCare Wisconsin representative James Ferguson, Milwaukee Branch NAACP President James Hall, State Senator Lena Taylor, Milwaukee Alderman Ashanti Hamilton, and Attorney Jonathan Safron who represents Dontre Hamilton’s family and others in civil matters, hosted a
Community Conversation with members of Dontre Hamilton’s family, community activists and residents on Monday, November 3, 2014 in the Harambee Community Involvement Center, 335 W. Wright Street. During opening remarks, James Ferguson from WestCare, said the purpose of the Community Conversation was to “create a space that allows commu-
nity members and families to be heard…about what took place and that which needs to take place so the community can move forward.” First District Alderman Ashanti Hamilton said his reason for being present was not to comment on the legality but rather on how the city should deal with sensitive issues. He went on to explain that since some individuals have
“chosen to voice their feelings make it difficult for the community to heal in dealing with this tragic loss. As a representative of the city, it’s an embarrassment to represent those that don’t recognize the sensitivity in dealing with such a tragic lost…I’m here to lend and show my support to the family and to say that our city should recognize all of its residents as valuable
members of the community.” More than two dozen individuals attended the meeting, which started shortly after 6:00 p.m. and ended after 8:00 p.m. To hear a full recording and photos of the event visit www.milwaukeetimesnews.com
2014 midterm election results
Governor Scott Walker wins 2nd term
Brad Schimel wins Atty. General spot
Secretary Doug La Follette wins 10th term
Congresswoman Gwen Moore re-elected
Congressman Paul Ryan re-elected
By William S. Gooden Special for the Milwaukee Times
In his third statewide victory in four years, the Republican governor beat the former Trek Bicycle executive in a closely contested campaign that drew attention from around the country. Walker's trio of victories in this pale blue state are already firing speculation about whether he will seek the GOP presidential nomination in 2016. The race for atty. general The second most watched race of note was race for the vacant State Attorney General seat. Waukesha County District Attorney Brad Schimel notched a win Tuesday, allowing that office to stay in Republican hands.
Schimel topped Jefferson County District Attorney Susan Happ, a Democrat. In January, Schimel will succeed GOP Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen, who announced last year he would not to seek a third term. Schimel will become the state's top lawyer and law enforcement officer. He will be responsible for improving the way the state tracks and prosecutes online child exploitation cases and responding to high-profile challenges to state laws. His top priority will be combating heroin, he said. "I am sick and tired of meeting with parents who
have buried their children," Schimel told his backers at the Country Springs Hotel in Waukesha. "Tonight I am putting drug dealers on notice. You are public enemy No. 1." He said he looked forward to working with Happ to make Wisconsin a safer place. The race for secretary of state Democrat Doug La Follette has won a 10th term as Wisconsin secretary of state. The 74-year-old environmentalist defeated Julian Bradley, a 33-year-old manager for a La Crosse telecommunications company,
in Tuesday's election. La Follette was first elected secretary of state in 1974 and has been re-elected every four years since except in 1978, when he ran unsuccessfully for lieutenant governor. La Follette has lost much of his power as agencies overseen by the governor take over licensing of corporations, notary services and other responsibilities typically held by the secretary of state. He lost one of his few remaining responsibilities, the authority to publish bills signed into law by the
Voters headed to the polls Tuesday, November 4, 2014 to select candidates for a number of contested local and statewide races, including governor, state attorney general, the 6th Congressional District and more. The race for governor In what was the most watched race of the political season, Republican Gov. Scott Walker defeated Democrat Mary Burke Tuesday, ensuring himself a second term in Madison and raising the prospect of a political future at the national level.

Foreclosed home now occupied Ribbon-cutting ceremony held
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett and representatives of U.S. Bank and Northwest Side Community Development Corporation (NWSCDC) participated in a ribbon-cutting ceremony at a formerly foreclosed home. This event was to celebrate the reduction of vacant property and the success of NW Impact, and the NWSCDC’s housing program in three city neighborhoods. The event took place at on Wednesday, Oct. 22 at 4155 N. 39th St. in Milwaukee’s Lincoln Creek neighborhood. U.S. Bank donated the property to the NWSCDC, NW Impact rehabilitated the house, and the nonprofit sold the home to Demetrius and Chimere Brooks. “I’m glad that we were able to turn this formerly foreclosed home back over to a Milwaukee family,” said Mayor Barrett. “Partners are critical to the success of Strong Neighborhoods, and this is just one way we are moving city-owned homes back to Photo by George Neal stable ownership. We are thrilled to have helped to make this happen. We have gotten to know the Brookses over the past year, and if there ever was a family to buy our first home, they’re the family,” said Howard Snyder, executive director for the NWSCDC. “Repairs and an addition to the 1,500 square-foot home created 10 new construction jobs,” said Robert Moore, president of Moore Construction Management, Inc. in Milwaukee. “My motto is ‘beautifying Milwaukee one neighborhood at a time’.” Established in 2011, NW Impact currently owns seven properties, including the U.S. Bank property on N. 39th St. and six properties formerly owned by the City of Milwaukee. The first seven houses owned by NW Impact are in Alderman Willie Wade’s district.
Midterm election
(Continued from pg. 1) governor, after he held up publication of Republican Gov. Scott Walker's signature legislation eliminating most public union collective bargaining authority. The race for state treasurer A former legislative staffer has been elected Wisconsin treasurer after promising to work to eliminate the office. Republican Matt Adamczyk defeated Democrat David Sartori to win the office Tuesday. The treasurer's office is established in the state constitution but has lost its powers over the years. The treasurer's only remaining duty is serving on a board that makes loans to municipalities and school districts from a $1 billion trust funded by the sale of public lands. The 36-year-old Adamczyk says the post is a waste of taxpayers' money. He has promised to eliminate the final three staff positions in the treasurer's office and run it solo while lobbying lawmakers to get rid of the post. Voters of course, have the final say on any changes to the state constitution. The race for the 4th Congressional District Democrat Gwen Moore has won another term in the U.S. House of Representatives, defeating frequent opponent Dan Sebring. Moore was first elected to represent the Milwaukee area in Congress in 2004. This was the fourth time she has run against Sebring, who owns a Milwaukee auto repair shop. Considered a shoe-in for re-election, Moore has focused in recent months on helping other Democratic
candidates, including speaking at rallies for Mary Burke, who was locked in a tight race with Republican Gov. Scott Walker. Moore also made news in September when she was arrested during a protest over wages paid to workers at McDonald’s and other fast-food chains. She was charged with disorderly conduct and ordered to pay a $691 fine for blocking traffic outside a McDonald’s in West Milwaukee. Gwen Moore spent Election Night at Lakefront Brewery in Milwaukee. “I can tell you, there are always votes out there. We don’t want to leave any votes on the table — so I spent some time going to various polling places, shaking people’s hands,” Rep. Moore said. Dan Sebring was at Serb Hall in Milwaukee on Election Night. “No giving up for me. I just can’t let it go. The Republican line needs to be represented on the ballot, and nobody else is coming forward, and I’m the guy,” Sebring said. The 4th Congressional District includes Milwaukee and a number of the surrounding suburbs. Other races of note U.S. Rep. and former Republican vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan has been elected to a ninth term in Congress. Ryan defeated Democrat Rob Zerban. Ryan has been known for his work on the federal budget but is expected to give up chairmanship of the House Budget Committee next year and shift to the powerful Ways and Means Committee as he considers a possible 2016 presidential run. Ryan has served as the United States Representative for Wisconsin’s 1st Congressional District since 1999
and as Chairman of the House Budget Committee since 2011. If Ryan does make a run for president in 2016 it could set up a three-way battle in the primary between Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, New Jersey Governor Chris Christy and Ryan. With two candidates from Wisconsin, it would definitely make the state a hot bed during the election, with a much heated battle for which hometown candidate the state will get behind. Republicans take control of Congress Riding a powerful wave of voter discontent, resurgent Republicans captured control of the Senate and tightened their grip on the House Tuesday night in elections certain to complicate President Barack Obama's final two years in office. Republicans picked up
seats in Kentucky, Arkansas, Colorado, North Carolina, Iowa, West Virginia, South Dakota and Montana, all states where Democrats retired. They had needed a net gain of six seats to end a Democratic majority in place since 2006. In the House, with dozens of races uncalled, Republicans had picked up 11 seats that had been in Democratic hands, and given up only one. A net pickup of 13 would give them more seats in the House than at any time since 1946. President Barack Obama was at the White House as voters remade Congress for the final two years of his tenure — not to his liking. With lawmakers set to convene next week for a postelection session, he invited leaders to a meeting on Friday. The shift in control of the Senate, coupled with a GOP-
led House, probably means a strong GOP assault on budget deficits, additional pressure on Democrats to accept sweeping changes to the health care law that stands as Obama's single domestic accomplishment and a bid to reduce federal regulations. Obama's ability to win confirmation for lifetime judicial appointments could also suffer, including any Supreme Court vacancies. Speaker John Boehner, in line for a third term as head of the House, said the new Republican-controlled Congress would vote soon in the new year on the "many common-sense jobs and energy bills that passed the Republican-led House in recent years with bipartisan support but were never even brought to a vote by the outgoing Senate majority."

Rebuilding Our Community
By Dr. Andrew Calhoun, Ed.D. Special for the Milwaukee Times
A few good advocates It can never be understated that a lot has been lost over the past few decades in terms of social awareness, justice, political gain and economic development. Nowhere have those effects been more profound than upon African Americans and other people of color. The planned and rapid changes in policy, laws, governance and due process has set back many of the gains of the civil right movement of the 1950’s and 1960’s. Today, there continues to be attempts to reverse or restrict the rights of all Americans, especially those who are the most vulnerable. These rights include voting, civil, employee, human and women. On the broad horizon there
seems to be far fewer advocates in urban communities to speak out on issues affecting residents. Even more striking has been a noticeable loss of mentors, village elders and mothers to assist in the personal growth of the upcoming younger generations. With this perspective, a number of views have emerged as to why. In one view, the ongoing shifts in society have resulted in more dysfunction within families and with that advocates have been more focused on those issues. Another viewpoint has revealed a loss of social consciousness of what it takes to keep communities connected and growing. Yet another viewpoint highlights a loss in the development of

grass root leadership, which has been a hallmark of how neighborhoods have been able to sustain their identity over the decades. The loss of community minded advocates has made a significance impact on the quality of life within most neighborhoods. This loss has led to issues of translation, transition and transfor-
mation. When a community loses its ability to pass on the gifts of dialog, culture, skill and heritage from one generation to another, the future of that community will be one of struggle and distance. At the center of a growing and striving community are persons and organizations that stand ready to assist residents to enjoy a great place in which to live, work and play. With too fewer advocates on issues, many urban communities have been adrift and unable to keep those in public office accountable to the growing needs of residents. What is needed today is a renewed call for people to step up to the plate and become advocates on the issues that are affecting their neighbor-

Two months of bliss
It is that time of year again. November is here and the holiday season is upon us. For the next eight weeks the United States will enjoy two months of family and closeness. The polls have closed. Elections have been decided so the madness of politics can be put down for a while. The bond that shapes families can be focused upon and strengthened. It is truly a time of bliss. The month of November brings with it Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is a time of giving thanks for what you have and family. Thanksgiving is a celebration of life. To join favored family and friends is what Thanksgiving is all about. Many people travel across country just to be with people they know and love. Thanksgiving takes the spirit of humanity to a realm of peace and harmony. Many rifts between family members can be repaired or at least overlooked for the day. The Thanksgiving meal is not of importance. The act of coming together as a family carries the clout on this day. The joy and togetherness created on Thanksgiving carries over to December and Christmas. Christmas is the King of all holidays in the United States. There will be more charity dispersed during the month of December than any other. The Christmas season brings cheer to even the sourest Grinch. Christmas cheer will be on everyone’s face, as the bustle along in stores and malls buying gifts for loved ones.
hood in general and those affecting the larger community. Making it all possible is that people need to look beyond their personal agendas and see the world through the lens of those who are suffering in silence. What do you think?

The cheer and joy that December brings does more than bring families together. Christmas also generates big business for the country. The sales of products will boom from the end of November until the end of December. Many merchants depend on the Christmas season to keep afloat. It has been said that Christmas has been commercialized because of the gift giving. But does a few dollars really matter if people can act civilized towards others for a few weeks? The civility and humanity that these eight weeks bring out in people can be used as a blue print. The blue print can create a way to keep people civil and semi-cheerful throughout the year. The joy one has of giving doesn’t have to be limited to eight weeks out of 52. People can give to others throughout the year and it doesn’t have to be physical gifts. In this country most people have more stuff than they know what to do with. What they don’t have is time for one another. Time to listen and show care for anoth-
er human being. How many purses or pair of Jordan’s can one acquire before they become tiresome? You can only drive one car at a time and when you go to work the car sits for eight hours. But quality time between people is rare and is possibly the most powerful gift of all. The holiday season shows that people have the ability to care for one another. Why not throughout the year? Does it really take the myth of the Pilgrims to bring people together? Is the image of a fat, drunken looking bearded man that powerful that without it people can’t share? Enjoy the season and try to extend it beyond eight weeks.

Osteoporosis Awareness (Week 2) Spotlighting different awareness topics helps to educate the community and it reminds people that these conditions exist. This month this writer will introduce several different health awareness issues for the month of November. It is this writer’s prayer that each week you will pick up your copy of the Milwaukee Times and share these articles with a friend. This week we will highlight National Osteoporosis Awareness.* According to the National Osteoporosis Foundation, osteoporosis is a disease of the bones. It happens when you lose too much bone; make too little bone or both. As a result, your bones become weak and may break from a minor fall or, in serious cases, even from simple actions, like sneezing or bumping into furniture. Osteoporosis means “porous bone.” If you look at healthy bone under a microscope, you will see that parts of it look like a honeycomb. If you have osteoporosis, the holes and spaces in the honeycomb are much bigger than they are in healthy
bone. This means your bones have lost density or mass and that the structure of your bone tissue has become abnormal. As your bones become less dense, they also become weaker and more likely to break. If you’re age 50 or older and have broken a bone, talk to your doctor or other healthcare provider and ask if you should have a bone density test. Osteoporosis is common About 54 million Americans have osteoporosis and low bone mass, placing them at increased risk for osteo-
porosis. Studies suggest that approximately 1 in 2 women and up to 1 in 4 men age 50 and older will break a bone due to osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is serious Breaking a bone is a serious complication of osteoporosis, especially when you’re older. Broken bones due to osteoporosis are most likely to occur in the hip, spine and wrist, but other bones can break too. Broken bones can cause severe pain that may not go away. Osteoporosis also causes some people to lose height. When osteopo-
rosis causes the bones of the spine, called vertebrae, to break or collapse, it affects your posture and causes you to become stooped or hunched. Osteoporosis may even keep you from getting around easily and doing the things you enjoy, which may bring feelings of isolation or depression. It can also lead to other health problems. Twenty percent of seniors who break a hip die within one year from problems related to the broken bone itself or surgery to repair it. Many of those who survive need long-term nursing home care.

The Milwaukee Chapter was officially launched in August, 2013 by Carmen Giles, Milwaukee Chapter President. BDPA’s goal is to empower students by giving them a solid foundation built around information technology and by developing their 21st century soft skills. Students learn the basics in computer application develop-
ment, database structure, web design, and project management. Research has shown that once students have a thorough understanding of computer basics, they have a healthier perspective about technology and approach emerging technology with curiosity and creativity. A phenomenal group of volunteers from BDPA and Washington High School came forward to support the program’s implementation. Distinguished professionals from organizations such as GE Healthcare, MillerCoors, Milwaukee County, Milwaukee Public Schools, Rockwell Automation, and Scott Institute of Learning serve as instructors and coordinators. Members from the community are invited to join the Milwaukee Chapter BDPA and become part of a national movement making a difference in the lives of African American IT professionals and developing today’s youth for tomorrow’s future.

Washington HS of IT 1 of 10 U.S. schools to win mobile app development program Washington is the only school in the Midwest selected for the Lenovo Scholar Network
Milwaukee Public Schools’ Washington High School of Information Technology is one of only 10 schools across the country – and the only one in the Midwest – selected to receive a mobile application development and entrepreneurship curriculum aimed at empowering the next generation of developers and entrepreneurs. The program, created by the nonprofit education group National Academy Foundation and technology firm Lenovo, means Washington students will receive instruction based upon the rich curriculum the program offers. And then they’ll put it to work.
As part of the Lenovo Scholar Network, the students will design and develop a mobile app working with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) “App Inventor” developers. They will also create a business plan for taking the app to market. “We’re honored to be one of 10 schools in the nation to be able to provide our students with this exciting, hands-on opportunity to broaden their knowledge of information technology and strengthen their preparation for college and careers,” Washington Principal Tonya Adair said. “This is another important piece in the strong
information technology programming our students can access.” Washington High School of Information Technology offers a National Academy Foundation Information Technology Academy that includes seven IT courses. Ninety new students were recently inducted into the academy. The school also partners with local business-
es to provide job shadowing opportunities and hosts a twice-annual Information Technology and engineering career fair. Washington students have interned at major local firms including Direct Supply, Northwestern Mutual and MPS’ own technology department. Last summer more than 50 WHS students were involved in these internships.
Recent graduates have gone on to study IT at destinations including Concordia University Wisconsin, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and Waukesha County Technical College. Now the school will have a new avenue to continue to grow students’ interest in (Continued on pg. 15)

November is “National Diabetes Awareness Month”
Eye MDs answer top 6 questions about diabetic eye disease
By Cheryl L. Dejewski
Diabetes is reaching epidemic levels across all ages and races. Chances are you know (or are) one of the 25.8 million Americans with the disease. Whether or not the cause is due to poor lifestyle choices, genetics or both, take note: Diabetes does more than affect blood sugar levels. Complications from the disease make it a leading cause of blindness in the U.S. And, if you are black, you have a three times greater risk of losing vision to diabetes than a white person. “We would like to give all members of the black community a chance to protect their vision by educating them about the importance of early detection and treatment,” says Dr. Mark Freedman, senior partner at Eye Care Specialists, a leading ophthalmology practice that has served the vision care needs of more than 125,000 Wisconsinites since 1985. In an effort to achieve this goal, Freedman and his partners answer the following six basic questions regarding dia-
Diabetes can cause abnormal retinal blood vessel growth, leakage and bleeding that leads to blurring, dark spots, and loss of vision. betic eye disease. 1. How does diabetes affect vision? “With diabetes, fluctuating and high blood sugar levels can cause the blood vessels that nourish the retina in the back of the eye to become weak or abnormal. This leads to leakage and bleeding that can blur vision and permanently impair sight.” reports Brett Rhode, MD, Head of Ophthalmology at Aurora Sinai Medical Center and a partner at Eye Care Specialists, an ophthalmology practice that specializes in the care of diabetic patients. “For some people, when a routine vision check-up uncovers signs of retinopathy, it is their first clue that they
even have diabetes.” 2. What are the symptoms? Usually, none. Most people don’t notice a problem until retinopathy is so far advanced that lost vision can’t be restored. That’s why annual dilated eye exams are crucial. You should also call your doctor immediately if you notice vision changes in one or both eyes (not associated with fluctuations in blood sugar), numerous floating spots (like spider webs), or a veil over your vision. 3. Am I at risk? “Of the nearly 26 million Americans diagnosed with diabetes, up to 45 percent have some degree of diabet-

African-Americans’ risk for vision loss or blindness is 8 times more than whites for glaucoma and 3 times more for diabetes. How can you protect yourself and your family?

ic retinopathy (damage to the retina), which can lead to vision loss and blindness. And, diabetic eye disease can appear as early as a year after the onset of diabetes,” says Dr. Daniel Ferguson, a partner at Eye Care Specialists, where tens of thousands of diabetic patients receive comprehensive care. He further explains, “All diabetics—Type 1, Type 2, insulin-dependent or not—are at risk, which increases with the number of years you have diabetes. For example, patients with diabetes for less than five years have about a 15 percent incidence of retinopathy, but this skyrockets to 80 percent for people who are diabetic for 15 or more years. And, because blacks have double the risk of developing diabetes than whites, the threat of vision loss is correspondingly higher. That’s why we can’t stress enough the sightsaving benefits of annual eye exams.” 4. How is retinopathy detected? “For many patients, diabetes-related changes in vision occur so gradually that they don’t notice or take action. Or, because fluctuations in blood sugar levels can temporarily affect vision, they don’t know or realize that a more serious eye problem is developing. And, even if a person’s vision appears to be good, significant retinopathy may be present and progressing. That’s why diabetesrelated eye damage can only be diagnosed through a comprehensive eye examination. Pupil dilation (enlargement with drops) is necessary to best check the back of the eye for early signs of retinopathy before noticeable vision loss occurs,” explains Daniel Paskowitz, MD, PhD, an ophthalmologist with credentials from Harvard and Johns Hopkins. Dr. David Scheidt, optometrist and a 19-year member of the Wisconsin Diabetes Advisory Group, adds, “Diabetes-related sight loss is
often preventable with yearly exams and early intervention. But all of our expertise, equipment and treatments are of no use if patients don’t come in for regular eye check-ups.” 5. How is diabetic retinopathy treated? “When treatment is necessary, we have been very pleased with the success of medications that can be painlessly injected directly into the eye to stave off progression of the disease. We typically use Avastin because it is both cost-effective and works to inhibit the growth of the abnormal blood vessels related to diabetic retinopathy. We evaluate each patient’s response individually to determine if and when (about every 4-12 weeks) they should receive injections. As a result, we have seen amazing results with Avastin, including not only stabilization of vision, but in some cases, improvement in sight,” reports ophthalmologist Dr. Michael Raciti, a local leader in the fight against diabetic eye disease. 6. Should I be screened for diabetic eye disease? Do you have diabetes? Was your last eye exam more than a year ago? If you can answer “Yes” to those two questions, then it’s time to have your vision checked. Keep in mind that appointments are often covered by insurance, Medicare or Medicaid. If these options are not applicable, arrangements can usually be made to accept cash, check, credit card or financing plan payment. “Don’t hesitate. It’s an opportunity to ensure that you see life to the fullest—now and in the future. And, remember, EVERYONE should have their eyes checked every two years after age 40 for other conditions, like glaucoma, that may be causing permanent vision loss without you even noticing it,” advises Freedman. FREE Booklets & Information Eye Care Specialists’ doctors are dedicated to providing the highest quality, diabetic, glaucoma, cataract, and macular degeneration care.

Obesity linked to increased breast cancer risk for black women Losing weight and maintaining a healthy weight can be a bit more challenging as we get older, but taking a walk, running on the treadmill or choosing salad over steak will not only benefit your waistline, but believe it or not, also your breasts. One of the breast cancer risk factors for Black women is genetic predisposition. We can’t change our genes, but new research shows there’s a risk factor that we can control: our weight. More than one in two Black women in the U.S. are reported to be obese. A study of more than 15,000 Black women recently published in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention found that being overweight or obese increased the risk of ER-positive breast cancer by 31 percent in postmenopausal women. “Breast cancer appears to have different risk factors in younger versus older women but by far, breast cancer is more common among postmenopausal women,” said Esther John, author of a similar study with Hispanic women. Breast cancer is the second most common cause of death from cancer for African Americans according to
the CDC. Dr. Elisa Bandera of Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey and author of the study with Black women said in a news release: “We know that breast cancer has several subtypes and there is growing evidence that these subtypes have different risk factors. The distribution of these subtypes and risk factors are different for African Americans and Hispanics compared to white women.” Bandera knows that one study isn’t enough and said, “We need to know more about what African American women can do to prevent and survive breast cancers of all types, which are often aggressive and deadly.”

Seven ways to cut your holiday expenses When it comes to holiday spending, waiting in store lines all night and jostling for discounts will mean very little if you don't have a budget that shapes your finances year-round. With the average U.S. household spending $600-$700 in 2014 for the holidays, putting that money together shouldn't be a game of chance. Here are some tips to get it right: 1. Before you make a list, plan. How's your debt? Do you have an emergency fund or any savings put aside? Start the holiday season by getting a handle on what you owe and what you're spending day-to-day. Then plan a holiday budget (www. practicalmoneyskills.com/ YourHolidayBudget) as early as possible that allows you to spend wisely. 2. See what spending is really necessary. It's tough to cut young kids off a gift list, so turn to the adults. If your finances are limited, it's worth asking adult friends and family members if they'd consider a gift swap or forego gifts altogether. They might actually think it's a good idea. 3. Attack your everyday expenses. Want to afford the holidays? Consider evaluating some expensive habits. Try reducing the amount you are spending on expensive nights out. Cook at home and bring your lunch to work. Use public transportation. Compare and cut your

auto and home insurance premiums. Turn down the thermostat, dump magazine subscriptions, gym memberships and any other budget item you're not using. You'll find that savings build quickly. 4. Browse before you buy. Assuming you've made a tight gift list, create a gift budget (www.practicalmoneyskills.com/YourGiftLog) tracking precisely what you're willing to pay for every item. For must-have, non-negotiable gifts, you may have to pounce before Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday and Monday for both price and selection. Also, don't forget to budget for holiday entertainment www. practicalmoneyskills.com/ EntertainmentPlanner). It's a potentially huge cost. Plan ahead and don't waver. 5. Create your own Holiday Club. Online savings and money market accounts
can allow you to set aside your holiday budget in small amounts throughout the year and they'll pay better rates than the last few banks offering Holiday Club savings accounts.

6. Watch gas and shipping. Smart shoppers weigh the value of store trips versus online shopping. They also keep an eagle eye for advertised online and shipping discounts. Sign up for special deals and coupons, consolidate in-person trips to stores and make sure you review return policies at online and bricks-and-mortar stores before you buy. Paying return fees or missing a window to return a gift entirely can cost big money. 7. Keep good records. Whether you track your finances on paper or on a computer, develop a system that allows you to match your holiday list to what you spend every year. Good re-
cordkeeping not only allows you to track the numbers, but also prevents you from duplicating gifts or overspending year to year. And it's always a good idea to keep a list of what you get from others to make sure you're thanking people appropriately. Finally, consider whether it's worth making new holiday traditions that go beyond gift giving. Some families consider contributing throughout the year to a joint vacation or reunion fund to bring everyone together. You might also consider the needs of aging or needy relatives who need assistance with chores, transportation or pet care. The holidays are what you make them.

Black male (Continued from pg. 3) We cannot dismiss this process. Why? Because the socialization process defines how we think and how we feel about so many critical issues and none can be more critical than the dysfunction and the consequences of a failed concept of fatherhood. Research shows that children born into poverty face a serious challenge getting out of poverty and that number increases exponentially when there is no father in the home. For many of our children, while it is not impossible, it is nearly impossible. There is almost a guarantee that children, especially boys, born into poverty will likely remain in poverty. Children in father-absent homes are almost four times more likely to be poor. In 2011, 12 percent of children in marriedcouple households were living in poverty, compared to 44 percent of children in mother-only households (this number is much higher in the Black community). In addition, many of our young boys are diagnosed with learning deficiencies, as special needs or as having aggressive behaviors that many times require prescribed medication. Much of this can be contributed to the fact that so many of our Black fathers are not present. Current data show that children born to single mothers show higher levels of aggressive behavior than children born to married mothers. Further research indicates that living in a single-mother household is equivalent to experiencing five and a half times partnership transitions and, among other factors, can be a predictor of anxiety, depression and aggressive behavior in children. Many experts state that there is the lack of a "Father Factor" contributing to our community's worst social problems. Today, 75 percent of our families live in biological father-absent homes. This has crippled our efforts towards self-determination and stability of our communities. We can't cross the finish line with these types of numbers. While these numbers are staggering, they will get worse because of the vicious cycle of pathology that a dysfunctional socialization process will generate. Children, especially our boys, will repeat the dysfunctional behavior if this isn't interrupted.
