Red Cross urges blood donation as one last gift to give this holiday season It can’t be wrapped or placed under a tree, but the perfect gift can help save patient lives this holiday season. The American Red Cross urges eligible donors to give the lifesaving gift of a blood donation in December, a time when donations decline but the needs of patients remain steady. Barbara Coger will never forget the donors that gave the blood that her husband received during the holidays. “I have been donating blood for some time, but really started encouraging others to do so after my husband received a donation on Christmas Eve,” she said. “He had not been doing well and would not survive much longer, but with that extra boost, he was able to share a
big smile with me on Christmas morning, something I will always cherish.” Donors of all blood types are needed this holiday season to help ensure a sufficient supply for hospital patients. To encourage donations, all those who come to donate Dec. 22, 2016, through Jan. save time when donating. 8, 2017, will receive a longUpcoming blood donasleeved Red Cross T-shirt, tion opportunities - Milwhile supplies last. waukee County: Greendale To make an appointment 12/27/2016: 8:30 a.m. to give blood, download the 4:30 p.m., Day of DonaRed Cross Blood Donor tions at Southridge Mall, App, visit redcrossblood.org 5300 S. 76th St. or call 1-800-RED CROSS Milwaukee (1-800-733-2767).

are 17 years of age in most states (16 with parental consent where allowed by state law), weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements. Blood donors can now save time at their next donation by using RapidPass to complete their pre-donation reading and health history questionnaire online, on the day of their donation, prior to arriving at the blood drive.

Sign up by December 15 for Obamacare in 2017
Health Insurance Marketplace enrollment surges in November and December
This year, it is more important than ever, for consumers to ‘shop’ for their best options in the Marketplace, because there will be a different mix of qualified health plans serving southeastern Wisconsin. Free, confidential, in-person help is available to consumers to enroll and re-enroll in the Marketplace, as well as BadgerCare Plus, by dialing 2-1-1 to book an appointment with an enrollment assister. The Milwaukee Enrollment Network reminds consumers to be prepared when signing up for healthcare coverage, and to have the following information about themselves and their household: • Social Security numbers
The
For more than 38,000 people in the Milwaukee area currently covered in the health insurance Marketplace (Obamacare), the time to review their coverage is now. Open enrollment runs through January 31, 2017. For affordable health insurance coverage in 2017, new consumers and current enrollees who intend to continue their Marketplace coverage next year, need to select their plan and re-enroll by December 15, for coverage effective on January 1. “We are encouraging everyone to compare health plan prices, benefits, and provider networks to find the best fit for their health care needs and their budget,” said Caroline Gomez-Tom, with the Milwaukee Enrollment Network. “Ninety percent of enrollees in our area receive financial assistance for their Marketplace coverage, so the cost of a monthly premium will still be very affordable for most consumers.”

How is it possible that Jesus existed before He was born? We shared with you in an article that Jesus existed before He was born in Bethlehem. So then this begs the question, how was that possible and could this have really been the case? Well the answers to both questions are a resounding yes. There is an abundance of evidence, as well as undisputed outside documentation, that a man called Jesus did indeed live on earth for approximately thirty three and a half years performing many miracles, healings, good deeds and exorcisms; and as far as history is concerned there is no credible evidence to repudiate any of those claims made about Him or written of Him, and so it is that Jesus was here and is a part of humanity’s history; and just not believing that will not make it go away. All of humanity evolves and/or revolves around Him, all of it, past, present and future. Everything on earth, heaven
and history was and is presently being affected by the power of His name. What is it about Jesus that makes Him so different from any other person? Well, for one thing His birth was announced thousands of years ago following the fall of Adam and Eve, who by their disobedience and subsequence falling out of grace with God, (by eating from the tree of good and evil) plunged all of humanity into darkness and the clutches of sin, thus precipitating the need for a redeemer/savior. Then there is Jesus. Jesus existed before Bethlehem because He has always been there, and there was never a time that Jesus has not been there. He is the personification of perpetuity; He is the personification of from everlasting to everlasting. No matter what else you have heard about God if doesn’t equate to Jesus being God then it is all unfounded hy-

The African American is a lost soul. If you look at the species as they wander the USA, you have to shake your head. At times the species seems to be on the uptick. Other times the species seems lost and ignorant of its surroundings. At one point in African American existence the race lost something. The thing the African American lost was pride. Pride is the feeling of satisfaction of one’s achievements. At one point in the USA the African American had this feeling. There was a sense of pride in the accomplishments of the achievements of black people throughout history. This enabled some African Americans to understand the environment of the USA. In
perbole and unsubstantiated truth. Jesus says that He is the way, the truth and the life and no man comes to the Father unless they go by Him. The Word of God points to the fact that Jesus is indeed the promised Savior that would save fallen man from the judgment of Hell. That He was the promised one that would reconcile man back to the relationship and fellowship that he had with God before sin entered into the picture. Every miracle and deed that Jesus did while He lived on earth can be proven and is well documented to have taken place without repudiation; so if that be the case and it is, then it would naturally move us to the postulation that the claims made of Him existing
before He was born would be true as well. How is it possible that Jesus existed before He was born? The reason it is possible is because God can do anything; so if the man called Jesus did all those things that only God can do, then yes Jesus existed before He was born in Bethlehem because He is God. No other deity in history can claim the things that Jesus claims; He is the God of the past, present and future, and that is how it is possible. Genesis 3:15 (KJV) And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

Where is the pride?
2016 African American has lost the sense of pride, and therefore has forgotten what the USA is about. Recent political events have shown how lost African Americans have become. African Americans were so blind until they were desperate to have Hillary Clinton as President. This mental naiveté stems from slavery. The slave wish for a kind master is similar to the modern day African Americans political view. Does it really make a difference who is in office? The past eight years should have enlightened African Americans to the fact that there are no kind masters in the White House. The loss of pride separates the African Americans from their history that knows there are
no kind masters, just masters. The killing and confusion in African American neighborhoods reek lack of pride. If African Americans had pride in themselves, and who they are, would they kill each other emotionlessly? Would African Americans honor a music industry that gains billions off of glorying extermination of their race? African Americans have lost the sense of achievement, and now accept exploitation as a sense of self. This negative sense of self is quickly leading to extermination. The lack of pride has led to a mis-education of the African American youth. The loss of pride has resulted in young African Americans that are ill-equipped mentally to deal with the racism in
the USA. For some reason African American parents stopped telling their children they were in a hostile environment. African American parents no longer tell children they have to be three times better than Caucasian children. This is why so many African American children falter in life. The prideless African American male has allowed fashion designers to mold him into a caricature. African American male pants are designed to show off the behind. By either sagging or shaping, for some reason the African American male behind is on display. Neat hairstyles have been traded for a nappy look that resembles the racist depictions of blacks from the 1930’s. Do

earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: All things were created by Jesus. John 14:6 (KJV) Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee. But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts, Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God only? Jesus did what only God could do, and they all knew it, and still would not believe. Hebrews 13:8 (KJV) Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
you think people with pride would allow this to go on, or even happen? The African American female has succumbed to loss of pride also. One word epitomizes the level of degradation the African American female has sunk to – weave. Do you think females who have a sense of self-pride would spend hundreds of dollars buying other women’s hair? Weave has led to fake lashes, heavy makeup, even obesity. The loss of pride has turned the African American female into a modern day concubine for other races that have racist histories. People reading this will say I am an angry black man. I am not now, but have been. I am a black man who is proud. I have my pride and am attempting to generate true pride in African American people before it is too late. Have I generated some pride in you?

The Counseling Corner By Camille B. Lester, Guest Columnist
The joys of chocolate milk: Demystifying Black women breastfeeding (Part 2) When I dare to be powerful - to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid. - Audre Lorde In the conclusion of this twopart series on “The Joys of Chocolate Milk: Demystifying Black Women Breastfeeding,” my daughter, Camille B. Lester, has been invited as the guest columnist. Last week she enlightened us as to the history of African American women and breastfeeding. This week she will connect the history to the present chronic disparity by examining the impact of not breastfeeding on the psychosocial development of Black children. According to the CDC when compared to other ethnic groups, Black infants consistently have the lowest rates of breastfeeding initiation and duration. Breastfeeding has a huge impact on psychosocial development, for infants. What is psychosocial development you ask? It includes key components of wellbeing (e.g. mental, emotional, spiritual, social, and cognitive). Breastfeed-
ing is influential for all four components of wellbeing for both the baby and the mother. Additionally, Woodward and Liberty (2008) state that mothers who breastfeed have been found to “report lower levels of perceived stress and negative mood, and higher levels of maternal attachment than mothers who formula-feed.” Along with prolonged intimate skin-to-skin contact and stronger maternal bonds persisting past childhood, mothers who breastfeed also report reductions in their negative mood compared to their mood levels prior to breastfeeding. These reductions in mood are likely due to one of my favorite hormones being released, oxytocin, or rather the “cuddle” and “love” hormone. Oxytocin is known as the hormone of attachment and actively promotes mother and child bonds due to the creation of calm and connectedness. In fact, research suggests, the higher the oxytocin levels in the first trimester of pregnancy, the more likely moth-
ers are to engage in bonding behaviors such as singing to or bathing her baby. Acts such as singing, holding, and bonding with infants have an influential and positive impact on later psychological, attachment, language, and emotional development. Thus, hold your baby, sing to your baby, bathe your baby, read to your baby, and most importantly be consistent with baby! Furthermore, breast milk also has beneficial nutritional impacts on developing babies. Imagine if every single time you were hungry, you were served a sustaining meal that contained the perfect balance of nutrients, fats, and electrolytes for your body that you needed, at that particular time. Welcome to the world of breastfed babies! Breast milk is uniquely formulated for your unique baby and even undergoes changes when your baby is sick to assist in providing the necessary antibodies that are low or insufficient in their bodies, further preventing your
baby from becoming sick. In plainer terms, breast milk is the most amazingly free superfood and cold fighter, jam-packed with handpicked nutrients for your little one; chocolate milk is the definition of #BlackGirlMagic! The psychological, emotional, mental, and health benefits are overwhelming and yet Black women sadly chronically breastfeed less than any other ethnic group. The CDC is urging prolonged targeted education and support for Black women and breastfeeding. What is your vision for your children, and your children’s children? We can stop historical cycles now. Will you dare to be powerful and conquer fear and truly experience the joys of chocolate milk? Camille received her bachelor of arts degree from DePaul University, Chicago, IL in Psychology and African & Black Studies. She is currently a master’s student in the Clinical Mental Health Counseling Program at Marquette University, Milwaukee, WI. Camille has participated
in research regarding community mental wellness and the integration of Black psychology and critical theory within the therapeutic context. She has presented on the impact of community violence on the wellbeing of African American youth along with the effects of historically violent images and the resulting impacts of emotion regulation strategies utilized by African Americans. Her life motto is “speak truth to power with love” and she demonstrates this in her passion and commitment to advocacy efforts to de-stigmatize mental health and accessibility to services in underserved marginalized populations. Upon graduation in the Spring 2017, Camille has hopes of continuing her education through doctoral work to further investigate and incorporate culturally sensitive interventions for minority communities and clients. If you would like to contact Camille Lester to speak on this topic or other disparities involving mental health in the Black community, email her at: Camille.lester@ marquette.edu.

My Very Own Library, Scholastic Book Fairs and United Way of Greater Milwaukee give kids free books More than 5,000 MPS students will receive free books to continue building their own home libraries and develop their reading skills through the My Very Own Library (MVOL) literacy initiative which is dedicated to putting books into the hands of children in need. This is the second year of the initiative in the City of Milwaukee. Children at Hopkins Lloyd Community School listened to children’s author Sundee
Frazier read an excerpt from her book Cleo Edison Oliver, Playground Millionaire and had an opportunity to ask her questions. Milwaukee is one of seven communities selected to take part in the MVOL program, which is supported by the Feeley Family Foundation, Scholastic Book Fairs, Milwaukee Public Schools, and United Way of Greater Milwaukee & Waukesha County. Inaugural partners United
Way of Greater Milwaukee & Waukesha County and Milwaukee Public Schools continue to support MVOL at ten MPS schools and a new contribution from the Zilber Foundation has allowed the program to add four additional schools: Doerfler Elementary, Longfellow Elementary, Milwaukee College Prep – Lloyd St, and Milwaukee College Prep – Lola Rowe.

Right now, your little girl sees herself as a fairy princess. Whatever dream she decides to pursue, you want to support her every step of the way.

Milwaukee Public Schools' student, Neveah, was excited to read her new book to Clifford that she picked out at her United Way of Greater Milwaukee & Waukesha County My Very Own Library Scholastic book fair — with Scholastic. The program kicked off in December of 2015 and during the last school year, the My Very Own Library program distributed 34,200 books to students in 10 MPS schools; Kluge; Auer Avenue School; Brown Street Academy; Hopkins Lloyd Community School; Jackson Early Childhood and Elementary School; Kagel School; Lancaster School; James Whitcomb Riley School; Townsend Street School; and Clement J. Zablocki School. At the end of this school year students in these fourteen schools will have received 50,000 books for their home libraries. The My Very Own Library program is unlike any other book distribution program because it incorporates the critical component of choice, parental engagement and school partnerships. Founded in 2011 by the late Anne Feeley (1954-2012), My Very Own Library was first implemented in Newark, NJ, and has expanded year after year. To date, My Very Own Library has provided more than 1.2 million books to students in Newark, NJ; Richmond, CA; Chicago, IL; Wilmington, DE; Kansas City, KS; Milwaukee, WI; and the Dominican Republic. By summer 2017, My Very Own Library will have provided nearly 1.6 million books to students across all seven locations it will serve.For more information on My Very Own Library, or for details on making a donation, please visit www.myveryownlibrary. org.

ty car isn't worth a thief's time. However, anything left in plain view—from your holiday gifts to spare change, sunglasses, CDs, cell phones or briefcases—may tempt a thief. • Help prevent your vehicle from being stolen by always locking your car and using anti-theft devices. And although it's cold, never leave your vehicle running while you run inside your home or a store—even if for only a minute or two. If a stranger comes to the door • Criminals sometimes pose as couriers delivering gifts, so be cautious when accepting a package. • It's not uncommon for people to try to take advantage of others' generosity during the holidays by going door-to-door for charitable donations when there's no charity involved. Ask for identification, and find out how the funds will be used. If you aren't satisfied, don't give. Help a charitable organization you know and like instead. After you've opened the gifts Burglars know that many households have new, and oftentimes expensive, items in their homes following the December holidays—especially items such as new computers and peripherals, stereo components, televisions, cameras and other electronic equipment. In too many cases, residents make it easy for burglars to figure out which homes to target by putting boxes that identify their new gifts in plain view with their other garbage. Avoid becoming an easy target for post-holiday burglars by not leaving boxes for new electronics and other items in the alley or other garbage pick-up locations for several days at a time. Instead, break down any boxes you are throwing out, put them in garbage bags and place them inside a trash can. (In many cases, especially with computer equipment, you might consider keeping the boxes for safe storage, shipping or moving in the future.) Think about keeping broken-down boxes inside—in a garage, for example—until the evening before your regular garbage pick-up. Some burglars actually look inside garbage cans for evidence of holiday (Continued on pg. 14)

This holiday season, don't let the spirit of giving lull you into giving burglars, muggers and pickpockets a better chance to do their dirty work. Crooks love the holidays as much as everyone else, especially because it's an opportune time for crime. Here are some tips on how to celebrate safely this holiday season: If you are traveling • Get an automatic timer for your lights. • Ask a neighbor to watch your home, shovel snow, and park in the driveway from time to time. • Don't forget to have mail and newspaper delivery stopped. If it piles up, it's a sure sign you're gone. If you are out for the evening • Turn on lights and a radio or TV so it looks like someone's home. • Be extra cautious about locking doors and windows when you leave, even if it's just for a few minutes. • Don't display gifts where they can be seen from outside. If you are out shopping • Stay alert and be aware of what's going on around you. • Park in a well-lighted space, and be sure to lock the car, close the windows, and hide shopping bags and gifts in the trunk. • Avoid carrying large amounts of cash; pay with a check or credit card whenever possible. • Deter pickpockets and purse-snatchers. Don't overburden yourself with packages. Be extra careful with purses and wallets. Carry a purse close to your body, not dangling by the straps. Put a wallet in an inside coat or front pants pocket. • Shopping with kids? Teach them to go to a store clerk or security guard if you get separated. More theft and pickpocket prevention tips Protect your vehicle • Loading up on all those gifts is a sign of progress in the holiday shopping. But if those packages are left out in the open after they're in the car, your car has become a likely target for thieves. Remember the old cliché "Out of sight, out of mind?" The same idea applies to items in your car. • Always lock your vehicle and store all items out of sight. Breaking into an emp-

MONEY MATTERS Build your financial foundation with life insurance “I know I need it, but I don’t want to think about it now.” “I’ll deal with it later, it’s not a priority.” These are two of the most common responses when the topic of life insurance comes up. Life insurance remains a product that many financial professionals agree should be the foundation on which people should build their financial goals. Why? Thrivent Financial suggests you start with your loved ones. The primary benefit of life insurance is to provide for them, helping them meet daily expenses so they can continue the activities of daily life should the unexpected happen. Proceeds from life insurance can be used by families to pay ongoing expenses, like credit card and mortgage bills. The proceeds can also help cover daily necessities like groceries, gas, and other expenditures and can also pay for

college tuition and allow families to keep commitments to one another. Without adequate life insurance coverage, many families could be placed under great financial distress to meet the ongoing financial obligations of their new situation. Having financial resources available after a loss can give families the time they need to grieve and figure out what the future looks like. Life insurance may also protect one’s spouse against sharp reductions in future pension and Social Security payments by replacing assets cut short by premature death. Careful preparation and reviewing of all your accounts with a financial professional can help you know about all your pension coverage and whether you are prepared for the future. And it’s not just at home where life insurance can
help. Life insurance can help business owners and others with significant assets to pass those assets to their loved ones in a tax-efficient manner. It also serves as an efficient tool enabling people to support nonprofit organizations through charitable gifts. Life insurance may not be a popular topic, but the security it offers brings a level of comfort that many people can’t do without. In addition, many people will find that life insurance coverage can be a key component of a retirement program as they

of the fundamentals behind tax-saving advice remain the same. Sell losing investments and offset capital gains or income. Do you have property, stocks or other investments that have dropped in value and you're considering offloading? If you sell the investments before the end of the year, you can use the lost value to offset capital gains (profits from capital assets). Excess losses can offset up to $3,000 from ordinary taxable income and be rolled over to following years. Optimize your charitable contributions. Many people make an annual tradition of donating their time and money to support charitable causes. It's a noble thing to do and could come with a tax benefit. The value of your donation to a qualified charitable organization, minus the value of anything you receive in return, could offset your taxable income. Charitable contributions are deductible if you itemize deductions. However, most taxpayers find it best to take the standard deduction – $12,600 for married people filing jointly, $9,300 for heads of households and $6,300 for single or married people filing separately for the 2016 tax year. If it's best for you to take the standard deduction for 2016 but you think you may itemize your deductions next year, consider holding off until the new year to make the donations. Defer your income to next year. You might be able to lower your taxable income
for 2016 by delaying some of your pay until after the New Year. Employees could ask their employer to send a holiday bonus or December's commission in January. It could be easier for contractors and the self-employed to defer their income since for them, it's as simple as waiting to send an invoice. Don't let FSA savings go to waste. Employer-sponsored Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) let employees contribute pre-tax money into their FSA accounts, meaning you don't have to pay income tax on the money. FSA funds can be spent on qualified medical and dental procedures, such as prescription medications, bandages or crutches and deductible or copays. FSA funds that you don't use by the end of the year could get forfeited. However, employers can give employees a two-and-a-half month grace period or allow employees to roll over up to $500 per year. Check with your employer to see if it offers one of these exemptions, and make a plan to use your remaining FSA funds before they disappear. What can wait until after January 1? Procrastinators will be pleased to hear that there are tax moves you can make after the start of the new year. You have until the tax return filing deadline, April 18 in 2017, to make 2016-taxyear contributions to a traditional IRA. The money you add could offset your income, and you'll be saving (Continued on pg. 15)

Holiday safety (Continued from pg. 12) gifts. And, of course, if you see someone suspicious casing your alley or if you see a burglary in progress, call the Metropolitan Police Department on 911. Take a holiday inventory The holidays are a good time to update—or create— your home inventory. Take photos or make videos of items, and list descriptions and serial numbers. If your home is burglarized, having a detailed inventory can help identify stolen items and make insurance claims easier to file. Make sure things like TVs, VCRs, stereo equipment, cameras, camcorders, sports equipment, jewelry, silver, computers, home office
equipment and power tools are on the list. Remember to check it twice! Celebrate responsibly The holiday season is a time of celebration and revelry. Drinking and driving is a danger to everyone on the road. Anyone with a BAC of .08 or higher is in violation of the law and may go to jail. Remember that the risk isn't worth it—if you choose to drink alcohol at a party, don't drive. Take a cab, use public transportation or a designated driver. Have fun, but remember to celebrate responsibly. Enjoy the season! Last but not least, don't let holiday stress get the best of your holiday spirit. Make time to get together with family, friends, and neighbors. And think about reaching out in the spirit of the season and helping someone who's less fortunate or lonely.
