Spring 2015 general election results
Michael Bonds Milwaukee School Board District #3 Wisconsin voters went to the polls on Tuesday, April 7, 2015 to elect a Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice and a host of candidates vying for circuit court positions, county board seats, municipal courts, aldermanic seats and school boards. On the ballot statewide, incumbent Associate Justice Ann Walsh Bradley handily defeated her challenger, Rock County Circuit Court Judge James Daley. Bradley received 463,571 votes while
Wendell J. Harris, Sr. Milwaukee School Board District #2 Daley garnered 334,632 votes. During a meeting with Pastors United on April 1, 2015 at Jerusalem Baptist Church, Justice Bradley hinted her opponent had been influenced by special interest groups, which she felt should have no influence in a non-partisan judicial election. Bradley touted the endorsement of 100 judges and her independence. Locally, voters elected two Milwaukee County Board

Supervisors to the 10th and 15th Districts respectively. On Milwaukee’s Northside, the son of Congresswoman Gwen Moore, Supreme Moore Omokunde, won the 10th District board seat, which became available last November when former Milwaukee County Board Supervisor David Bowen was elected to the 10th Assembly District. He resigned from the Count Board last December.
Supreme Moore Omokunde Milwaukee County Supervisor District #10
Edward Cullen, the son of Milwaukee County Treasurer David Cullen, won the 15th District Milwaukee County Board seat. For Omokunde and Cullen, this was their first campaigns for an elective office. In the race for Milwaukee School Board, Wendell Harris, Sr., defeated incumbent, Jeff Spence, who was first elected to the board in 1999. The incumbent School Board President, Michael Bonds, overwhelmingly de-
feated challenger Stephany Pruitt who works as a counselor and psychotherapist. Board members are elected to serve four years, earning $18,121 while the board president is paid $18,667 and health benefits. Voters also approved changing the state constitution to allow supreme court justices to elect their own chief justice.
Property ownership theme at Pastors United second annual Dinner Gala and Awards Banquet By Steve Waring Special to the Milwaukee Times The leadership of Pastors United Community Advocacy, Inc., revealed more of its plan for helping members of the African American community transform their Milwaukee neighborhoods into safe and prosperous places in which to raise a family during the second annual Dinner Gala and Awards Banquet held Saturday, April 4, 2015 at the Italian Community Center. “Power relations are totally predicated on one’s ability to own and manage property,” said Minister Gregory Lewis, president of Pastors United in remarks printed in a program booklet. “Through our churches, we can create a pipeline of potential buyers of property. We have to put our people in a position to buy and own property. We do not have enough people in position right now, but we can prepare and put them in position.” During an after-dinner address, Minister Lewis said that Pastors United had re-
cently purchased two foreclosed inner city Milwaukee houses which the organization intends to refurbish and sell. Minister Lewis acknowledged the many hurdles, including lack of access to credit, that often prevents African Americans from acquiring property. He pledged that Pastors United would allow no obstacle to stand in the way of the organization achieving its goal of a higher private property ownership rate among African Americans. He specifically mentioned the idea of starting a community bank as one idea. Later in the evening Minister Richard Schwoegler, of BASICS, encouraged member congregations to adopt a neighborhood block and to transform it step-by-step into a safe and desirable place to live. “You do not need experience,” Minister Schwoegler said. “We do need your help. We can get you set up in 90 minutes with a program to take back this city.” Keynote speaker Bevan Baker, commissioner of (Continued on pg. 2)

Chicago Street located in the Third Ward in downtown Milwaukee. The program theme was: “Moving Forward – Empowering Families,” which was rated the top priority issue among sixth other areas of concern by members of the organization. This year’s acknowledgment page of the program book states “empowering families will be an ongoing process in our community, which will involve mutual respect, critical reflection, caring and group participation through which people lacking an equal share of valued resources gain greater access to and control over those resources.” Pictured above (top row from left) are: Jim Bartos of Wisconsin Community Services; Elder Robert Shannon, representing Bishop R.

Fire and Police Commission sustains Manney’s firing
By Steve Waring Special to the Milwaukee Times
Part Three Milwaukee Police Officer Christopher Manney took the stand in his own defense on March 22. During cross examination he revealed that he had recently been evaluated by a doctor and told he was mentally unfit to serve, but that being a police officer was part of his identity. “I need to be a police officer,” he said. A written response to the charges against Manney stated: “Due to my suffering from and diagnosis of severe Post Traumatic Stress Disorder due to this incident, I required and received assistance to complete this memorandum.” During the investigation Manney said he noticed a bulge in the right front pocket of Dontre Hamilton. At one point during testimony by Lieutenant Heather Wurth she said that Manney was given a total of three interviews and if he had said he thought the bulge was a knife or gun then that would probably have been suffi-
Pastors United (Continued from pg. 1) the Milwaukee Health Department and the son of a preacher, thanked the approximately 300 members and guests for attending despite the fact the University of Wisconsin basketball team was playing in the Final Four of the NCAA men’s basketball tournament. He joked that he was confident that there were enough pastors present in the room praying for a win and then turned serious. “In order to do anything in life, you’ve got to believe,” he said. “Milwaukee needs so much. God is limited by only one thing: the faith that you have. Faith is the promise that it is already done. It’s easy to go around saying ‘I hope things in Milwaukee will get better’. Faith gets it done,” Baker added. Pastors United recognized several members for distinguished service: Nathan Conyers and Lynda Jackson Conyers, owners of The Milwaukee Times, received the Lifetime Achievement Awards. “Thank you and may God continue to pour out blessings on Pastors United for being in the forefront on issues affecting families, and addressing other issues with housing, crime, incarceration and education, which affect far too many of our people,” Mr. Conyers commented. Also honored were Jim Bartos, project manager for the Community Building Milwaukee Initiative at Wis-
cient justification for Manney to search Hamilton. Instead Manney said he suspected the bulge was some sort of a weapon and that Hamilton was homeless. During one of the interviews a report summarized Manney as saying that homeless persons are often armed. “There was a lot of stuff in his pockets,” Manney said as noted in the report. “You don’t know with the homeless. They are often armed. It could be a crack pipe or a shard of glass.” Several officers called as witnesses under questioning by Mark Thomsen, the lawyer representing the city of Milwaukee, said that some details Manney gave during the three interviews were inconsistent. Of the three expert witnesses called by Manney, only Robert C. Willis, a retired police officer considered an expert witness on Defense and Arrest Tactics (DAAT) admitted to being familiar with the new Milwaukee Police Dept. policy on searches. He said he had concerns the new policy was too restrictive and inconsistent with other laws regarding police

Burt, Sr., for his social skills and outreach to youth; Dolly Grimes-Johnson, director of the Shelter Services for Sojourner Family Peace Center; Pastor Robert Pyles, pastor at Abundant Faith of Integrity Church and the owner of 12 McDonald’s restaurants in the Milwaukee area; and Dr. Hillary Wynn, a physician who is passionate about the practice of psychiatry and her responsibility to at-risk populations. The honorees were applauded by a mix of members, newcomers, the curious and several whose goals for community redevelopment align with what Pastors United is attempting to accomplish. “The faith community is where the concept of social justice came from,” said Jackie Ivy, a community organizer. “I am not a pastor, but I come to support their objectives.” It was the first Pastors United meeting for Pastor Vanessa Wilder. She came away impressed, noting that she has already adopted the block of 13th St. and Vliet. Elder Jacob Gatlin, associate minister at Redemption Fellowship Church on 26th St. and Hopkins, was unable to attend the banquet last year, “I gave up watching the Badgers in the Final Four because I felt that the Lord wanted me here,” he said.

searches. Under cross examination he acknowledged that the officers participating in the investigation of Manney were qualified to come to a different conclusion. After testimony and closing arguments the commission went into private session for about an hour before emerging to announce that they had unanimously concluded that Manney had violated the Milwaukee Police Dept., policies with which he was charged. When the announcement was made the Hamiltons and their supporters cheered and clapped. At that point the hearing resumed the public session and brief arguments were heard as to whether the Pastors United. His daughter said she enjoyed coming to banquets because it gave her a chance to spend time with her parents. She also supports what Pastors United is trying to achieve. The banquet was an informational meeting for Denise Evans, an elder at Christian Faith Fellowship Church of God, 8633 W. Good Hope Road. One of the youngest members of the audience was also one of the most interested. Cartier Lewis, age 11, is the grandson of Pastor Lewis, president of Pastors United. Cartier said he was “proud of his grandfather for taking a stand.”
punishment was commensurate with the violation. Both lawyers noted the harm to the community and the message that would be perceived. Manney's attorney, Jon Ceremele, criticized the summary report for failing to note some potentially exculpatory evidence. He also said it was possible to punish Manney without firing him, pointing out that Manney had successfully served on desk duty for about six months after the shooting before he was fired. Thomsen said failure to uphold the firing could cause a crisis of confidence in the community given the degree of harm. The jury again returned to
closed session, taking only about 20 minutes to reach a unanimous decision upholding the decision to terminate. The court adjourned about 10:15 p.m. Manney can still appeal the decision to the Milwaukee County Circuit Court. The decision by the hearing also has no bearing on his pending request for duty disability retirement, an application he completed two days before he was terminated. Officers who are awarded duty disability retirement generally receive about 75 percent of their previous salary tax free. At the time of his termination, Manney was making about $70,000 per year.
Informational sessions for job openings at new retail stores Two new Meijer retail stores are opening soon in Oak Creek and Wauwatosa and informational sessions for job openings will be held next week. The sessions will be held at the Milwaukee Area Workforce Investment Board, 2342 N. 27th St., on Tuesday, April 14 from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., Wednesday, April 15 from 3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., and Thursday, April 16 from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Meijer is seeking sales floor associates, utility workers, cashiers and clerks. Requirements for the positions include availability to work holidays/weekends/overtime when needed, punctual with good attendance, honesty, good communication skills, and physically capable
of performing the duties of the positions. Additionally, a construction trades job fair (for positions such as finish carpentry, tiling, flooring, landscaping, asphalt paving, painting and acoustical ceiling) will also take place at MAWIB on Wednesday, April 15 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Alderman Russell W. Stamper, II, encourages those seeking employment opportunities to attend one of the informational sessions. “Meijer is bringing more jobs to our community and residents should take advantage of these information sessions to learn about these employment opportunities,” Alderman Stamper said.

Living from silos I know that I am not alone and you hear it every week... “We need to be more transparent!” But in reality all we see are people who are operating and doing their business from a “silo”... so much for that idea, of transparency. Believe it or not, people working from and within a “silo mentality” have been around a long time. It’s nothing new and as long as it has value and is useful the concept and practice will continue. Transparency and getting people, a company, agency, church or organization out of a set mode or way of doing things is hard to achieve. Just trust me on that one. I attend a lot of meetings, and believe me...it all seems the same people are present and only a few ideas, a question or two... if any emerge.
It is as if people have been briefed beforehand not to say anything, given a day off to attend, part of their job description, learned how to play the kind of game or brought in only to make the meeting bigger than it really should be. Then it dawns on me that nearly all ideas that come to light are coming from people who live, work and play in a particular “silo.” Then I hear those words... we want all people to share their thoughts and be “transparent” today! Then it comes to me... “How can you ask people to be transparent... when everyone here is from a “silo?" The term is more related to a facility or building that is a part of a farming operation. On a farm a “silo” is where grain or silage is stored for future use in feeding farm

Identification with race has been one of the major problems in the world for centuries. Race identification has been the cause for the worst crimes in history. One of the main sources of frustration in the USA stem from race
animals or to sell to other producers. The silo is also a place to protect what has been produced on the farm from outside elements. So, the term “silo” offers a clear contrasting picture of what is happening each day in our communities and cities. People are operating from a “silo” mentality. When you think of it in terms of a company, business, agency, organization, or governmental service, it is how we devel-
op and protect our ideas and values. It is a way to protect the brand and to keep the details of the company business from being stolen by competitors. So I don’t say I am going to a meeting where innovation and new ideas are going to be flowing like “milk and honey” out from everywhere and everyone... but I say I am going to a meeting of “silo” thinkers, who are more interested in keeping the system like it is, rather than improving it for the future. It is hard to break away and become transparent, when all that is being done is coming from those earning a living from a “silo.” Getting out of a “silo” way of thinking is harder than you think or believe, and if you are outside those “silo” systems then you

issues. Maybe it’s time to say good-bye to all so called races and just exist as people. It may be time to give your race away. In the USA race is the root of every major problem in the country. People may try
to ignore racism but the root of all problems is color. For example, the problem with President Barack Obama isn’t the job he’s doing, it’s his skin tone. The reason people have issues with living in the inner city is race. By identi-

fying themselves and others by race, people are opening themselves up for frustration. Give race away. White people in the USA have been told since forever how great they are. There is nothing wrong with that until you have to repress others to be great. This need to be revered is the sad part of the USA white mindset. The inherent belief that they are better than people of color has slanted their view of themselves. Whites have reason to be proud but no more than any other race. A close look at White history shows a pattern of murder, aggression and lies that continues today. White people, give up your race. The Latino community has become a major force in the USA in the last few decades. The integration of Latinos into the USA has made many adopt the White USA mindset. Many Latinos quickly merge with the USA racist mindset that looks down on Black people. Latinos who think like this must not realize why they have a brown or tan complexion. The Black people in the USA are unique in their race identification. There are those Blacks who have totally adopted the White USA mindset. These Black people rush to assimilate anything that they think will make them fit into the USA. This mindset originated out of the fear of death in slavery times. Many think those who follow this mindset live in the suburbs and drink Starbucks. This is incorrect;
the Blacks who have adopted the White USA mindset are from all economic levels. There are those Blacks who have read history books and seek to grasp some dignity from the past. These Black people usually are few and far between because there is no money to be gained in this path. The Black people who follow this path are perpetually frustrated. This frustration comes from watching other Black people act foolish in the pursuit of the American Dream. The three major race factions in the USA are all miserable. The Whites who run the country are miserable and headed to destruction. The Latinos who come to the USA seeking salvation are being duped and groomed for servitude. The Black people have totally assimilated and have become so lost they are ripe for slaughter. The only way to keep the lights on and avoid Armageddon is for all races to vanish. The acceptance that all people are connected and good in their own right is the only salvation for a planet that has sunk into mediocrity.

Electronic aggression (cyber-bullying) (Week 1) Today’s youth face many challenges. It is not that prior generations did not face challenges, a youth’s challenge today are a bit more complex and certainly more complicated than when their parents or grandparents were growing up. For instance, when youth in prior generations “hung out” with each other, it was in person; today, youth still “hang out” with each other; but unlike their parents’ and grandparents’ generation, youth today “hang out” often by socializing online and communicating with one another through texts, social media outlets and other digital devices. Young people have certainly seen the positives of media technology. Young people can communicate with family and friends regularly; make social connections and regular internet access allows young people to increase their knowledge on a variety of topics. While society has profited by the advances in media technology, there are some disadvantages that accompany this level of success. In a world where media technology
dominates our society, it may seem like a misnomer for this writer to even talk about the disadvantages of technology; but drawbacks and misuses exist. One such drawback is electronic aggression a/k/a cyber-bullying. Electronic aggression is bullying that occurs through e-mail, a chat room, instant messaging, a website, text messaging, videos or pictures posted on websites or sent through cell phones. Who is at risk of cyberbullying? According to stopbullying. gov, some of the factors associated with a higher likelihood of engaging in bullying
behavior include: • Externalizing problems such as defiant and disruptive behavior • Harsh parenting by caregivers • Attitudes accepting of violence Some of the factors associated with a higher likelihood of victimization include: • Poor peer relationships • Low self-esteem • Perceived by peers as different or quiet Why don't kids ask for help? Statistics from the 2012 Indicators of School Crime and Safety show that an adult was notified in less than half
or 40 percent of bullying incidents. Children do not report bullying to adults for many reasons: • Bullying can make a child feel helpless. Kids may want to handle it on their own to feel in control again. They may fear being seen as weak or a tattletale. • Kids may fear backlash from the kid who bullied them. • Bullying can be a humiliating experience. Kids may not want adults to know what is being said about them, whether true or false. They may also fear that adults will judge them or punish them for being weak. • Kids who are bullied may already feel socially isolated. They may feel like no one cares or could understand. • Kids may fear being rejected by their peers. Friends can help protect kids from bullying, and kids can fear losing this support. Please join us this month as this writer examines the issue of electronic aggression a/k/a cyber-bullying and encourage parents, teachers and church youth group leaders to join the fight in

Girls' Day at city hall stokes young women's interest in public service careers
Hupy and Abraham supports Malaika expansion
Event Photo

More than 150 girls participated in Girls Day at Milwaukee's City Hall on Wednesday, April 1, 2015. It was a chance to inspire girls to pursue careers in public service. "In the end, I want them (to realize) the talents and gifts they develop can be useful, not only to them, but to their community," Alderwoman Milele Coggs told WTMJ. "Investing in our young people and young women and allowing them to see other women who have chosen careers in public office and public service might expose them and make them begin to think about careers along these lines." Ald. Coggs is the only woman currently on the Milwaukee Common Council. "While that is a great feat, I think it's sad that in this day and age, there's only one woman here. I think women have a perspective to add, in not only the creation of policy, but also in the public service arena," she said. One young lady was happy to gain skills in leadership. "I want to be part of the city. I want to be a police officer and I can't be a beat cop all my life so it'd be good to see how to be a leader," she said. The event has grown from 40 girls to more than 150 since the event began five years ago.
The mission of Leon L. Williamson Funeral Home is to provide the highest level of dignified, personal service as we facilitate the celebration of lives and memories of loved ones. We commit ourselves to fulfilling the entrusted requests of our families to their absolute satisfaction. We promise to offer guidance and assistance as final decisions are made for the celebrations of life. We commit ourselves to maintaining a warm and comfortable environment in which families and friends may grieve their loss.

Since 2003, Malaika Early Learning Center has been helping inner-city at-risk children in Milwaukee receive excellent education from birth to age 5. Now, Malaika wishes to move forward, and they are doing that through the “Great-By-8” program. On March 25, 2015, members of the community attended a luncheon in honor of the new project, which included a tour of the facility. Dennis Mueller founded Malaika with his wife and spoke about his original goals for the learning center. Mueller wanted to give inner-city children the learning opportunities that they may not have had access to because of the class they were born in. Board member Sandi Cleveland shared how important it is for centers like Malaika to exist, and how they help form the building blocks for early development. Most behavioral social
cues children learn are extremely important up to the age of 8. Executive Director Tamera Johnson outlined the amount of success that Malaika has achieved, but the reason for expanding is partially due to research. Third and fourth grade test scores are showing that reading is becoming a problem, and the staff at Malaika wishes to address those types of issues, and to ensure that students are performing at or above the level of proficiency. Construction plans for the 4,600 square-foot addition to the facility at 125 W. Auer Ave., include new classrooms, a parking lot, bus dropoff and more storage. Malaika’s board would like to break ground on the project in August 2015. Jill Wellskopf, Marketing Director at Hupy and Abraham, S.C., is on the Board of Directors for Malaika Early Learning Center.

In Loving Memory Of Pallbearers
God saw you were getting tired, and a cure was not to be, So he put his arms around you, and whispered, “Come to Me.” With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.

Education
MPS: Op Ed.
Michael Bonds, Ph.D. President Milwaukee Public School Board of Governance
MPS is improving student outcomes now Over the past two months, there’s been a lot of attention focused on Milwaukee Public Schools’ Strategic Objectives or Eight Big Ideas. Focused around our core principles of Student Achievement; Student, Family and Community Engagement; and Effective and Efficient Operations, these forwardthinking efforts are designed to create both a long-term and short-term road map to improve student achievement in MPS. Recent community listening sessions have provided vital feedback and are building community support for this work. Even while these efforts are moving forward, considerable efforts are taking place in our classrooms right now around key programs helping our students reach their fullest potential. While some of these initiatives are in their early stages, I’m pleased that this work is showing promising results that indicate we’re headed in the right direction. I’m proud to share a few examples with you of ways MPS is improving student outcomes now. MPS’ Commitment
Schools Initiative, designed to transform underperforming schools into high-performing schools, has early indications of progress. In just the first year of the program, initial test results show the schools are narrowing reading and mathematics achievement gaps in most grades from kindergarten through 8th. MPS will receive data for high school grades in the spring. The 14 Commitment Schools are implementing rigorous, school-specific academic and behavioral interventions with the ultimate goal of achieving greater college and career readiness. While these 14 schools are receiving the most intensive support, all of the district’s schools that received the lowest ratings on the most recent state report card are receiving assistance. The support of the GE Foundation, through a $20.4 million grant, is creating model GE Foundation Schools where best practices can be studied and replicated by other MPS schools. Initially focused on Common Core implementation, GE Foun-
dation Schools are models for collaborative learning and cooperation. Several GE Foundation Schools, including Franklin Pierce Elementary, are making remarkable progress. The 5-in-1 Collaborative is a unique partnership that brings the energy of MPS together with other major partners – Northwestern Mutual, City Year, Teach for America and Schools That Can Milwaukee – to pursue academic excellence at Carver Academy, a historically underperforming school on Milwaukee’s north side. The team is working to reinforce a school culture that has become laser-focused on learning and improving attendance and behavior. Partners are bringing their expertise and their commitments to make Carver a model of success. The majority of grades at the school are making significant success in closing the gap in both reading and math. MPS is working in partnership with United Way of Greater Milwaukee & Waukesha County to support a MPS Community Schools Partnership at three schools
– Auer Avenue School, Bradley Technology and Trade High School, and James Madison Academic Campus. Working together, we are partnering to help fund three Community School coordinators. Based on a successful program in Cincinnati, these coordinators are working to bring the schools and community together to develop resources and create opportunities to improve student achievement and the schoolcommunity climate. Milwaukee Public Schools is working closely with Milwaukee Succeeds on a pilot program focused on foundational reading skills for students and teach coaching at Gwen T. Jackson and Clarke Street elementary schools. Early findings show encouraging results and promising growth in students participating in the program. Other efforts to improve student achievement include: • Creating more high-performing schools. Examples include the expansion of Golda Meir, the district’s premier school for elementary gifted and talented students, to include a high
school, and adding additional seats to Reagan Preparatory High School, one of the top high schools in Wisconsin, according to U.S. News and World Report. • Expanding successful and popular programs. Examples include establishing the Rufus King Middle Years International Baccalaureate program and moving it in fall 2016 to renovated space at the former Malcolm X Academy location; creating Lloyd Barbee Montessori and Howard Avenue Montessori schools to meet growing parental demand for Montessori programs; and designing a new elementary arts program at Kluge School. MPS is dedicated to continuing to find new opportunities to improve student outcomes and to work with various community partners to explore ways to help all students achieve great things.

Healthy lifestyle may guard against dementia A healthy diet, physical activity and brain exercises can help slow mental decline in older people at risk for dementia, a new study suggests. On the other hand, a high body-mass index (BMI) and poor heart health are significant risk factors for age-related dementia, the researchers said. BMI is an estimate of body fat based on height and weight. The study included 1,260 people in Finland, aged 60 to 77, who were considered to be at high risk for dementia. They were randomly selected to receive either regu-
lar health advice (the control group) or to be part of an intervention group. Over two years, those in the intervention group met regularly with doctors, nurses and other health professionals who provided advice on healthy eating, strength and heart-healthy exercise, brain training programs and management of metabolic and circulatory risk factors for dementia. After two years, those in the intervention group scored 25 percent higher overall on a
standard test of mental function than those in the control group, according to the study in the March 12 issue of The Lancet. The differences were much greater on some parts of the test. For example, people in
the intervention group scored 150 percent higher in mental processing speed, and 83 percent higher in executive functioning, which is the ability to organize and regulate thought processes. “Much previous research has shown that there are links between [thinking] decline in older people and factors such as diet, heart health and fitness. However, our study is the first large randomized, controlled trial to show that an intensive program aimed
at addressing these risk factors might be able to prevent decline in elderly people who are at risk of dementia,” study leader Miia Kivipelto, a professor at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, said in a journal news release. The researchers plan to follow the seniors for at least seven years to determine if the slower mental decline seen among those in the intervention group results in a reduced risk of Alzheimer’s disease and other types of dementia.
Healthy living in middle age keeps heart failure at bay decades later Avoid obesity, hypertension, diabetes and you may live up to 13 more years without the illness, study finds
Are you in your mid-40s and slim, without high blood pressure or diabetes? If so, you may already be winning the war against heart failure in your senior years, new research suggests. The study, led by cardiologist Dr. Faraz Ahmad of Northwestern University in Chicago, found that being free of those heart disease risk factors in middle age greatly extended the number of years a person lived without heart failure. His team looked at data on more than 18,000 people tracked over 40 years. The researchers found that people who were obese and had high blood pressure and diabetes by age 45 were diagnosed with heart failure an average
of 11 to 13 years sooner than those who had none of the three risk factors. The average age of heart failure diagnosis was 80 for men and 82 for women who had none of the risk factors at age 45, compared with the late 60s and early 70s for those who did have the risk factors at age 45. Even having one or two of the three risk factors reduced the years a person lived without heart failure, the researchers found. People who had one or two of the risk factors developed heart failure an average of three to 11 years earlier than those with none of the risk factors, Ahmad’s team said. “The message from this study is that you really want
to prevent or delay the onset of these risk factors for as long as possible. Doing so can significantly increase the number of years you are likely to live free of heart
failure,” Ahmad said. The study is to be presented March 14 at the annual meeting of the American College of Cardiology in San Diego. Findings presented at medical meetings are typically considered preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed journal. According to Ahmad, the findings could help patients better understand the importance of avoiding major risk factors for heart failure, he suggested. “In the clinic, we often give patients metrics of risk that are relative and abstract,” Ahmad said. “It’s a much more powerful message, when you’re talking to patients in their 30s or 40s, to say that they will be able
to live 11 to 13 years longer without heart failure if they can avoid developing these three risk factors now.” Heart failure affects more than 5 million people in the United States, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The condition impacts the health not only of the heart, but of other organs. Symptoms include fatigue, swelling and chronic cough and/ or wheezing, and the CDC says that half of people with heart failure die within five years of their diagnosis.
Night owls at higher risk of diabetes Are you a night owl who enjoys staying up late? If you are, enjoy it while you can but know that your belated bedtimes may be a detriment to your health in middle age. A new study finds that people with late bedtimes are more likely to develop diabetes and other health problems than early birds. Moreover, the health risks stayed the same even for night owls who got the same amount of sleep as early risers, according to the study, published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism. Many night owls don’t get enough sleep because they go to bed late but still need to wake up early in the morning, said the study’s senior author, Dr. Nan Hee Kim, an endocrinologist at Korea University Ansan Hospital. “These results support the importance of circadian rhythms in metabolic regulation,” says Kim. The study included 1,620 people ages 47 to 59 years old. The participants answered questions about their sleep-wake cycles, sleep quality and lifestyle habits, such as how often they exercised. They also gave blood samples
and underwent body scans that assessed their body’s fat and lean mass. The researchers found that the evening people were more likely than the early risers to have poor sleep quality and unhealthy behaviors such styles and eating late at night. as smoking, sedentary life- The night owls also tended
to be younger, but were more likely to have high levels of body fat and triglycerides, or fats in their blood, than early risers. (Having high levels of fat is usually associated with older age.) The people who stayed up late were also 1.7 times more likely to have
type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome, which is a set of symptoms — including high blood pressure, high blood sugar levels, too much abdominal fat and abnormal cholesterol levels — that can occur together and increase a (Continued on pg. 14)
