Milwaukee Bucks invite minority business leaders to participate in their $1-billion downtown arena project
Photo by Steve Waring
Former Milwaukee Alderman Willie Wade addressed “Build the Future,” a business information session held Monday, March 14, 2016 at the BMO Harris Bradley Center by the Milwaukee Bucks for local businesses interested in participating in the $1-billion downtown arena construction project. Wade, who resigned his seat on the city council in February to accept a position as vice president of the Milwaukee Area Workforce Investment Board, was one of eight speakers. A diverse audience, which included local small business owners and representatives from large out-of-state corporations, attended the session. During his presentation, Wade elaborated on earlier comments made by Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett in which he praised the Bucks ownership for agreeing to include all arena-related construction projects in the city's Residence Preferred Project, which sets aside specific percentages of all jobs for Milwaukee residents and also provides apprenticeship training in various building trades. These opportunities can lead to life-changing experiences with many more than just those hired benefitting, Wade said, adding that the goal was to create a workforce in Milwaukee that is ready to meet the needs of the construction boom in Milwaukee. Despite promises there would be many opportunities for local small business owners to participate in the project, a pamphlet provided to attendees left unclear how that process would occur, because the project has been subdivided into three building phases. There are four construction bid opportunities for the new Bucks Training Center and two construction bid packages for the parking structure. The number of bid packages for the arena has yet to be determined, according to the pamphlet.
Senator Ron Johnson visits the Joseph Project job training program Senator Ron Johnson (second row, fourth from left) visited and gave a brief inspirational speech before personally greeting the sixth incoming class of The Joseph Project on March 14, at Greater Praise Church of God in Christ, 5422 W. Center St. To date the program, which Senator Johnson said is open to anyone, has found full-time work for about three dozen local residents with conditional job offers for another two dozen. The Joseph Project is a job training program administered by Senator Johnson and Greater Praise Church of God in Christ, headed by Elder Jerome Smith, Sr. (front row, right). One week per month for the past six months Pastor Smith has brought together prospective employers provided by Senator Johnson and people who “are serious about getting a job.” After a week of ‘soft skills’ training, the employers return and interview those participants who have completed the week-long class. The overwhelming majority of graduates receive job offers, Pastor Smith said.

Mayoral candidates debate at Marquette University Law School
Incumbent Mayor Tom Barrett dominated Alderman Bob Donovan in a debate held March 11 at Marquette University Law School. The debate was broadcast live by WISN-TV and moderated by Mike Gousha. Mayor Barrett began by noting that during the past year Alderman Donovan had proposed three pieces of what he described as minor legislation and 49 press releases. He noted that in the past Alderman Donovan had responded to a tragic shooting in Milwaukee by blaming the incident on “the deteriorating African American culture in the United States.” Alderman Donovan denied that he was a racist and defended his statement as a necessary part of an honest conversation about the challenges facing many Milwaukee residents, but the accusations seemed to rattle him and Mayor Barrett did not let up. Alderman Donovan faulted Mayor Barrett for creating a toxic relationship between the city and the Republican-dominated state government and for the alarming rise in shootings and crime in Milwaukee. One of Alderman Donovan’s top priorities is to hire an additional 250 police officers, but when Mayor Barrett challenged him where he would get the $15-million to pay for the additional police, Alderman Donovan responded by criticizing the street car project which he predicted the city would wind up having to subsidize. Mayor Barrett countered that land values along the proposed street car line have increased significantly based on the recent sales of the Grand Avenue Photos by Steve Waring Mall and the downtown Post Office Building.

Former Rep. Tamara Grigsby passes due to health complications Former state Rep. Tamara Grigsby has died of health complications at age 41. Dane County Executive Joe Parisi announced Grigsby’s death on Tuesday, March 15, 2016. Grigsby dealt with cancer during her time in the Legislature, stepping down in 2013 after eight years representing a portion of Milwaukee. Grigsby later became the community outreach coordinator in Parisi’s office and was recently appointed director of the county’s new Department of Equity and Inclusion. In a statement, Parisi’s office said funeral services were pending and the family had requested privacy. Parisi described Grigsby as a “spe-

St. Ann Center’s new Bucyrus Campus will soon be branching out, literally. The Campus, at 2450 West North Avenue, was chosen as the winner of one of five new community orchards awarded by Victory Garden Initiative (VGI). All communities in Milwaukee County were encouraged to apply to cultivate up to 30 fruit and nut trees in their neighborhoods. Of the many applicants, VGI’s Fruity Nutty 5 Committee chose: St. Ann Center for intergenerational Care-Bucyrus campus, Centro Hispano, Hales Corners Environmental Committee, Urban Eden Community Garden, and a partnership between Milwaukee Jewish Day School and Westside Academy to receive an orchard. In total, 150 plants will get growing this year to feed their communi-

Contest launched on November 1, 2015, and winners were announced at the Fruity Nutty Affair last month. Diane Beckley, COO of the
Bucyrus Campus, accepted the award. After this year’s planting, VGI’s Fruity Nutty 5 Contest will have planted 25 orchards throughout Milwaukee County. “The orchard will help our children learn where their food comes from, how to best use fruits and nuts, and why it’s important to take care of our earth,” says Sister Edna Lonergan, president of St. Ann Center, an all-ages day care that brings health and educational services to children, adults, the elderly and those with disabilities. “We’re excited about the life an orchard will add to our Bucyrus Campus…the fragrant blossoms everyone will enjoy in spring, and the fresh fruit and nuts at harvest. That’s when our children and adults will start baking fruit pies together. The children will learn about measuring
and fractions, and they’ll help our older adults experience the fun of baking.” The community orchard will be enjoyed by the entire neighborhood, Lonergan adds. “People will see the beauty of the trees and share in their bounty. It’s a living example of why it’s important to take care of our earth.” Neighborhood orchards provide more than delicious, natural, local fruits and nuts, VGI points out. They cultivate roots for closer communities. They supplement grocery bills and get people outside, enjoying and preserving our environment. Neighborhoods interested in this fruitful program can apply next winter to win your own orchard! To learn more, go to VictoryGardenInitiative. org/fruitynutty or call (414) 431-0888.

Rebuilding Our Community
Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper
By Dr. Andrew Calhoun, Ed.D. Special to the Milwaukee Times
Where is the beef ? I have been told that if you want to have a great meal that is both nutritious and fulfilling, you have to begin knowing how to cook the main course. All main courses of beef, fish, shell fish and pork are not all the same. Regardless of how each is prepared–baked, roasted, barbecued, sautéed, smoked, deep fried, boiled or eaten raw, there are additional steps and ingredients required to bring out its rich favors. To further enhance our dining pleasure, the main course requires a variety of vegetables, starches, seasonings and sauces that surely complement our dining experience. In 1984, the Wendy’s chain of hamburger restaurants
began using a “Where is the Beef?” slogan strategy that would help distinguish it from its competitors of McDonalds and Burger King. The focus was to call attention to the larger beef patty in Wendy’s sandwiches over these competitors. As a result this slogan campaign proved to be quite successful and has reemerged in various ways through songs, political speeches and ads. Since then it also became an all-purpose catch-phrase that is used to question the substance of an idea, event and even a product.
political season of 2016. The political chefs in the “kitchen” are making it hard for us to read their menus, count calories and to see the cost per item. If the samples or our first bites are a “forerunner” of what’s to come, our future diets of getting things done for the good of the people This idea and notion about will be hard to digest. And where is the “substance” is tru- before anyone buys an item, ly being tested during this I strongly suggest that you

take a seat, add up the cost and determine what menu will not give you indigestion. As this political season moves forward through uncharted territory, negative rhetoric and questionable racial undertones, the stakes no less are very high. Regardless of the outcomes of this election season, let us not lose sight of what continues to occur in our neighborhoods each and every day. These problems have not gone away and the issues are as real as they can get. So, with the table being set, the menu is still a work in progress, let us not become disillusioned about who will win or lose... let’s see if we are at the table or on the menu.

Defining the Milwaukee Love Kindness movement In the last column I said we are living in the very best of times in human history. This is hard to comprehend when we are exposed to all the terrible things happening throughout the world. We do not even have to focus on world news when what is taking place here in Milwaukee can prove to be discouraging. It is because of this that our need to Love Kindness becomes so very important. Of course, in order for this to actually become a movement it must begin with individual behavior. How you treat someone on a daily basis is easily understood. A kind word spoken at a critical moment can change a life for the better. We spend so much time focused on just getting by each day that it is easy to overlook how important what we say and do to each other really is. So, to repeat what I said in a previous column you must decide that today you will do at least one specific act of kindness. Here are some suggestions. 1. Make a telephone call and tell someone you love them. 2. Send a card or letter to a friend you love. 3. Smile and greet someone in passing. 4. Visit someone who you know would enjoy a visitor. 5. Wear your Love Kindness button and give it to someone who comments on it. 6. Hug someone who needs a hug, including yourself. 7. Count your blessings. To actually Love Kindness you have to treat others as
you would like to be treated. This can take some intentional effort and it does start with how you treat yourself. Do you, “Rejoice in the day that the Lord has made?” Hi-Mount school has a very special Kindness program that is having a significant impact on how the students behave. Piedmont College in Georgia has been awarding a Love Kindness award for over ten years and it is making a difference on that campus. Community Baptist Church of Greater Milwaukee is acknowledging Kindness by giving awards. Love Kindness buttons are being given out as are bumper stickers. This is just the beginning of what we hope and pray will be a movement that transforms Milwaukee. However, it will not happen unless and until you get involved. Wouldn’t you like to be living in a city that became known worldwide as the place where the Love Kindness movement started? Let’s get this idea going in churches, schools, businesses and neighborhoods throughout greater Milwaukee. We are looking for ideas and volunteers. Let us know what you would like to have as you start your Love Kindness campaign. If you need buttons, bumper stickers or window signs send me your name or drop by the Milwaukee Times office. We can make Milwaukee a Love Kindness City. You have heard it said that, “the longest journey begins with a single step.” Kindness

By Rev. Judith T. Lester, B.Min. M.Th
Countdown to the Glorious Resurrection! (Week 2) The Resurrection assures us of an eternal future. The Resurrection of God our Savior turns darkness into light, despair into hope and encourages us to rise up and enter into a deeper relationship with the Lord Jesus the Christ! As we countdown to the Glorious Resurrection, this month this column is presenting selected Stations of the Cross. The Stations of the Cross is a narration of the final hours of the Christ’s Passion and is a reminder of the humble manner in which the Christ was willing to set aside His deity and provide a way of salvation through His sacrifice. This week as we countdown to the Glorious Resurrection, the 5th Station of the Cross is presented and explained. 5th Station of the Cross: Jesus Before Pilate Luke 23:13-25 Pontius Pilate served as the governor of Judaea from approximately 26 to 36 A.D. As governor of Judaea, Pilate faced a conflict of interests between the Roman Empire and the Sanhedrin Jewish council. When Jesus
was brought back before Pilate (after Herod had sent Jesus back to Pilate), Pilate called together the Sanhedrin which consisted of the chief priests, scribes and elders of the people. Because Pilate could not find fault in Jesus and wanted to release Jesus, in a last ditch effort to have Jesus released, Pilate offered Barabbas to be crucified in exchange for Jesus’ release. The chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowd to ask for the release of Barabbas and have Jesus executed. Pilate decided to grant the demands of the crowd and Jesus was delivered to the soldiers to be crucified. Keep in mind Jesus was considered a major threat to the ruling authority over the Jews. Jesus taught the people that salvation was by the grace of God and not by adherence to the many precepts set forth by the Sanhedrin, and such teaching not only undermined the authority of the religious leaders, but it also posed a serious threat to the livelihood that they enjoyed as a result of their control over the Jewish people. No wonder the chief priests

and the elders persuaded the crowd to choose Jesus to be crucified. Beloved, this would be considered a classic case of a gross miscarriage of justice. Jesus, the most innocent man in the history of humankind, was found guilty of crimes and sentenced to death by crucifixion; while Barabbas, who had been thrown in jail for insurrection and murder, was released. While the circumstances surrounding Jesus’ arrest, trial and sentencing were improper and unfair, it was all part of “God's deliberate plan and foreknowledge” (Acts 2:23).

Lady Hawks have best season in Milwaukee School of Languages history
The Milwaukee School of Languages (MSL) varsity girls basketball team wrapped up the best season for any sport in the school's history. The Lady Hawks were runners-up in the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association (WIAA) Division 3 championship game in the state tournament, with a 4331 loss to Hayward Saturday afternoon. "Personally, I feel like I accomplished what I came here to accomplish," senior Timeah Stotts told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. "For a small school like the Milwaukee School of Languages to be here at state, it feels really good. Whether it's gold or silver, we still have a ball." The Lady Hawks basketball program started at the school in 2005.
Central to the district’s plan to increase academic achievement as part of its eight big ideas is the redesign of the MPS experience to include expansion of fine arts, athletic programs and the opportunity for all students to participate in student clubs, associations and organization that support their interests and increase their connection with their school and community. These activities offer opportunities for students to learn the values of teamwork, individual and group responsibility, physical strength and endurance, competition, diversity, and a sense of culPhoto Courtesy of MPS ture and community.

Connecting reading assignment to community members It’s not everyday a student gets to meet an active duty police dog, but some Parkview Elementary School third grade students recently got the chance after reading a story about one in class. As part of teachers Sean Clark and Laurel Ragalie’s non-fiction reading unit, students read “Officer Mike and Aero,” a story about a police officer and his K-9 companion. In the final days of the unit, the teachers invited members of the Milwaukee Police Department’s K-9 unit to the school to meet with students. The visit gave students the opportunity to ask questions and meet real members of a police K-9 unit, Officer
Todd Johnson and his partner, Dasty (the dog). Students always look forward to visits from Officer Johnson and Dasty, who have visited students at Parkview the past three years. Part of the non-fiction reading unit experience also gave students opportunities to pursue individual learning activities, work in small groups and participate in whole-class reading. Social studies lessons also are incorporated where students learn about different people in the community. Following the visit, students wrote thank you letters to Officer Johnson and Dasty for spending time with them.

Avoid the “Salty Six” to keep your heart healthy Make healthy food choices and reduce your sodium intake all month long.
The average American consumes more than 3,400 milligrams of sodium a day – more than twice the amount recommended by the American Heart Association. Sodium consumption may lead to elevated blood pressure, which increases the risk of heart attacks and stroke. High blood pressure is the leading risk factor for death among women in the U.S., and the second leading risk factor for men. March is Nutrition Month and one of the easiest ways to take control of your food choices is to watch your sodium! In an effort to initiate healthy eating habits and reduce the amount of sodium

percent of the sodium we’re eating is already in our food before we buy it! These six popular foods can add high levels of sodium to your diet: • Breads and Rolls: Each serving may not seem high in sodium, when you eat some foods several times a day, the sodium levels add up. • Cold Cuts and Cured Meats: One 2 oz.-serving or 6 thin slices, of deli meat can contain as much as half of your daily recommended dietary sodium. • Pizza: A single slice of pizza with several toppings can contain more than half of your daily recommended dietary sodium. • Poultry: Sodium levels in poultry can vary based on preparation methods. You will find a wide range of sodium in poultry products, so it is important to choose wisely. • Soup: Sodium in one cup of canned soup can range from 100 to as much as 940 milligrams. Check labels to find lower sodium varieties.
• Sandwiches: A sandwich or burger from a fast food restaurant can contain more than 100 percent of your daily suggested dietary sodium. An easy way to make healthier choices while grocery shopping or dining out is to look for the American Heart Association’s HeartCheck mark. Simply look for the name of the American Heart Association along with the familiar red heart with a white check mark on the package or menu. When you spot the American Heart Association’s Heart-Check mark, you'll instantly know the food has been certified to meet our nutrition requirements, including appropriate sodium amounts. Begin the journey toward a longer, healthier life for you and your family with tools and resources from the American Heart Association.

UR HISTORY
An Exploration of Our Lives and Legacies!
A job well done, First Lady! Sixteen accomplishments of Michelle Obama 2016. The final year of the first Black president and first Black First Lady in the White House. As we take a look back over the last eight years, the Obama Administration has accomplished a lot, and shaken some things up in order to move this country forward. But we can’t forget about the accomplishments of President Obama‘s right hand (no, not Joe), Michelle Obama. Michelle has willingly taken some of the most controversial issues in American history and gone head to head to fight them. Forget that this First Lady was known by the nickname of “The Closer” during campaigning because she is skilled at persuading undecided voters to sign pledge cards – closing the deal. Forget that Michelle was named as the #1 most stylish in Style Magazine in 2013. Forget that this First Lady is the ONLY First Lady in American history to hold two Ivy League degrees. Forget that First Lady Michelle Obama is one of the few First Ladies to show love for her husband openly without scandal. Even if you forget all of that, we’ve got 16 other amazing accomplishments that First Lady Michelle Obama has done. Take a look. 1. In 2010, she launched Let’s Move!, bringing together community leaders, educators, medical professionals, parents, and others in a nationwide effort to address the challenge of childhood obesity. Let’s Move! has an ambitious goal: to solve the epidemic of childhood obesity within a generation. Whether it’s providing healthier food in our schools, helping kids be more physically active, or urging companies to market healthier foods to our children, Let’s Move! is focused on giving parents the support they need to make healthier choices for their kids. 2. In 2010 she passed The School Lunch program with bipartisan support. The program provides free and reduced-price meals to more than 21 million low-income children, now requires districts to serve more fruit, vegetables, whole grains, lean protein and low-fat dairy products. 3. Walgreens, Supervalu, Walmart and several regional grocers announced a commitment to build or expand 1,500 stores in communities with limited or no access to healthy food. This initiative will create thousands of local
jobs, and will provide access to fresh food to an estimated 9.5 million people who currently have limited access. In California alone, the Fresh Works Fund has committed $200-million to this effort to increase access to healthy food. 4. Darden, the world’s largest full service restaurant company, which owns Olive Garden, Red Lobster and other chains, made a commitment to improve kids’ menus by offering a fruit or vegetable and low-fat milk with every meal. Darden will also reduce total calories and sodium by 20 percent across their menus over the next 10 years. 5. The First Lady launched MyPlate and MiPlato, an easy to understand icon to help parents make healthier choices for their families. More than 6,100 community groups and 100 national organizations and corporations have partnered with the USDA to give families across the country access to this important nutritional information. 6. The First Lady worked with the US Tennis Association to build or refurbish more than 6,200 kidsized tennis courts across the country, sign up more than 250,000 kids to complete their PALAs, and train 12,000 coaches to help kids learn the sport of tennis. 7. The First Lady launched Let’s Move! Child Care to ensure that our youngest children are getting a healthy start. As of January of 2013, more than 10,000 child care professionals and organiza-
Michelle Obama courtesy of The White House Instagram. tions have registered to implement new criteria for nutrition, physical activity, and limited screen time. 8. Walmart announced a new Nutrition Charter through which they lowered the cost of fruits, vegetables, and whole grain products by $1 billion in 2011. Walmart has also pledged to work with manufacturers to eliminate trans fats and remove 10 percent of the sugar and 25 percent of the sodium in the food they sell by 2015. 9. Through Chefs Move to School, 2,400 chefs and nearly 4,000 schools have signed up to work together, teaching kids about healthy eating and helping cafeteria staff prepare healthier meals. 10. The country’s largest food manufacturers pledged to cut 1.5 trillion calories from the food they sell by 2015 through their Healthy Weight Commitment Foun-
dation. 11. The American Beverage Association fulfilled their commitment to the First Lady to put clear calorie labels on the front of their products to give consumers better information. 12. Through her Let’s Move! Museums and Gardens, 597 participating institutions in all 50 states and the District of Columbia have signed up to offer active exhibits and healthy food choices. 13. In 2011, Mrs. Obama and Dr. Jill Biden came together to launch Joining Forces, a nationwide initiative calling all Americans to rally around service members, veterans, and their families and support them through wellness, education, and employment opportunities. Joining Forces works hand in hand with the public and private sector to ensure that service members, veterans, and their families have the tools they need to succeed throughout their lives. 14. In 2014, Mrs. Obama launched the Reach Higher Initiative, an effort to inspire young people across America to take charge of their future by completing their education past high school, whether at a professional training program, a community college, or a four-year college or university. Reach Higher aims to ensure that all students understand what they need to complete their education by working to expose students to college and career opportunities; helping them understand financial aid eligibility; encouraging

academic planning and summer learning opportunities; and supporting high school counselors who do essential work to help students get into college. 15. In 2015, Mrs. Obama joined President Obama to launch Let Girls Learn, a U.S. government-wide initiative to help girls around the world go to school and stay in school. As part of this effort, Mrs. Obama is calling on countries across the globe to help educate and empower young women, and she is sharing the stories and struggles of these young women with young people here at home to inspire them to commit to their own education. 16. Michelle hosted a White House dinner to support mentoring programs for young girls, encouraging them to break the glass ceiling. “Once you see somebody on TV it looks like it’s easy, but the truth is we only know many of these women once they’ve become famous, once they’re in the news. Faith and love and hard work — that’s what got us through. You don’t need money or connections. The question is, do you let that fear stop you?” Even while her husband’s approval rating by the American public has fluctuated, Michelle’s has stayed surprisingly high. In August 2011, President Barack Obama’s approval rating plummeted to 40 percent, but Michelle’s remained high at 70 percent. Way to go Michelle! We see you!
Nellie Weddle’s 80th Birthday Celebration With NORI’s Community Heroes’ Recognition Banquet $50 Plate Donation
Nellie Weddle, founder of Nellie’s Outreach Resource lnitiative (NORI) is the woman who became involved with the community through the NBA Pro-Am Men’s Basketball League and the YouthAm Boy’s Basketball Program in the 1980s and 1990s. In 1990, Nellie became involved with the Neighborhood Family Initiative (NFI). Ford Foundation provided grants to community foundations in Detroit, MI, Hanford, CT, Memphis, TN and Milwaukee,WI to assemble a staff collaborative board in a neighborhood community of their choosing. The late Sarah Anne Ford (not related to the Fords) was the program coordinator for the Milwaukee Project. For over six years in the 90s, Nellie was an active volunteer with the Neighborhood Leadership Committee. NFl provided her the skills and understanding of the community development process through classes of NFI’s Leadership Workshop by Jan Smith, Learning Your Community conducted by Dan Folkman and Kalyani Rai and Investing In Harambee (Partnership Building Program) conducted by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Project in Social Investing. Inspired by what she had learned and seeing the possibilities of how one person can make a diflerence, Nellie’s Outreach Resource Initiative (NORI) was created in 1994. Nellie considered NORI a spin-off project of NFI because of the affiliation. The NORI/Youth Employment Program-Model 1999 was created to improve the communication between the Milwaukee Central City and the “quick service” restaurant industry. This was a successful partnership venture with McDonald’s Owner/Operator Sherman Claypool, with a $40,000 grant funded by Helen Bader Foundation. Because of the successful venture, Helen Bader Foundation chose to further their assistance by helping NORI to secure 501(c)(3) status. The Greater Milwaukee Foundation’s Donors Anita B. Steinman Fund and I.A. Dinerstein Fund made it possible to assist NORI with office space.

You can’t judge a book by its cover. Even so, we do it all the time: we see someone’s outside and think we know what’s inside. We base it on his looks, or his youthful indiscretions – things, as in the new book “Writing My Wrongs” by Shaka Senghor, that he may deeply regret. Little James White wanted to be a doctor when he grew up. Enveloped by the love of his parents, he was secure in the idea that he could maintain his honors status and do good for people in his Detroit community. But then
Shaka Senghor his parents split, reconciled, and split again; his mother took her frustrations out on him and she kicked him out of her house. Jay was just “a little boy” of fourteen then, but it didn’t take long for someone to offer him a job selling cocaine at five dollars a “rock.” He started earning big money, wearing cool clothes, getting girls, smoking crack. By seventeen, he’d been in trouble with the law and had been given many second chances. By eighteen, he’d been shot in the leg and foot. By nineteen, he was in prison for shooting another man, killing him. In his first six weeks in County Jail, Jay saw it all: rape, robbery, beat-downs, murder. He learned the “law of the jungle” and knew that he could never let small disrespects slide. It was a whole

new world, but a sentence of up to forty-two years for firearm possession and murder put him in another universe. Years later, transferred to various prisons within the state and carrying a new name and a new assault charge, Shaka Senghor promised himself repeatedly that he would change, only to have it beaten back by prison life and the deep anger and guilt he carried. Finally, mid-way through a four-and-a-half year stint in ad-seg, he “took a long and painful look” at himself and equipped his cell “like a classroom,” reconnecting with the Black history he loved and the religious studies he craved. “But the real changes,” he says, “came when I started keeping a journal.” I’m glad he did that. You will be, too, once you’ve started “Writing My Wrongs,” but don’t think for a minute that this is an easy book to read. One expects passages of brutality in a book about prison, but author Shaka Senghor takes it a step beyond, to something of nightmares or movies. That he was moved from prison to prison makes the chaos even keener; prisoners, says Senghor, sometimes lose track of time and readers could be forgiven for the same. Enter the maelstrom from the safety of your sofa, in fact, and the ending of this book – Senghor’s hard-won redemption and afterlife – will remind you that you’ve been holding your breath awhile. “Writing My Wrongs” may be right for a certain kind of book group. For sure, it’s something every young person should absolutely read. It’s uplifting, triumphant to the skies and, once you start it, you’ll be sorry to reach its back cover.

Recipes for Meal Time Make your ham brunch shine this spring It’s time to shed those winter layers and enjoy the warmth and brightness of the spring season. And what’s the best way to do this, you might ask? Why not give your spring occasions a taste of their own goodness by hosting a memorable, seasonally inspired brunch celebration. The ham tradition No spring brunch is complete without a beautiful ham as the centerpiece. But how did this tradition come to be? Prior to modern refrigeration and all its conveniences, ham was cured during the cold winter months. This made spring the most-opportune time for folks to enjoy this delicious, much-anticipated treat. Servings made simple No matter what the occasion may be, you can easily transform it into something special with a mouthwatering ham centerpiece. Rule of thumb: plan on about 1/3-1/2 of a pound of ham for each guest. Of course, if you’re planning to enjoy leftovers, you might consider purchasing a slightly larger ham. Here’s a useful guide to follow, courtesy of The Honey Baked Ham Company: • 4 people – 1.8 pounds • 8 people – 3.6 pounds • 12 people – 5.4 pounds
• 16 people – 7.2 pounds Tip: Try serving your ham either family or buffet-style, allowing guests to pick and choose their slices to help reduce the wasting of food. Table in bloom The easiest way to enhance your brunch setting is with a floral touch. Even Asparagus Tart a single bouquet of your faServes: 4 vorite spring flowers (think 1 tablespoon butter hyacinths, daffodils or tulips) 1 shallot, finely chopped can add eye-catching flair to 1 bunch (about 1 pound) an otherwise ordinary tables- trimmed asparagus, cut into cape. 1-inch pieces Sides in season 1 sheet puff pastry dough Spring brings with it a host 1/2 pound goat cheese of seasonal veggies just beg- 2 tablespoons sliced sunging to be featured in your dried tomatoes, packed in oil brunch spread. Consider preparing something that adds a dash of garden freshness, such as this Asparagus Tart, to the overall feast. Effortless entertaining There’s no need to labor all morning to make your occasion feel special. Places such as HoneyBaked make it easy to serve delicious, quality dishes that also leave you plenty of time to spare. And back by popular demand this spring, they are serving up their ham and cheese quiche featuring slightly sweet crust (at participating locations for a limited time only). For more ideas on making the best spring brunch yet, visit honeybaked.com.
3/4 cup diced Honey Baked Ham salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste 1 egg, yolk only 1/2 teaspoon water Heat oven to 450 F. In medium frying pan, saute butter and shallot over medium-high heat for about 1 minute. Add asparagus to pan and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Set aside pan containing shallots and asparagus. Open puff pastry dough and, on lightly floured parchment, roll dough into rectangular
shape, approximately 10-by16 inches. Transfer and pat pastry dough onto baking sheet, leaving 1-inch border. Layer with goat cheese. On top of cheese, sprinkle shallots and asparagus, tomatoes, ham and salt and pepper, to taste. Brush edge of pastry with egg yolk mixed with water. Bake 20-25 minutes, until pastry is golden brown and puffy. Let cool slightly and serve.
