Lovie Smith fired as Bears coach after nine seasons The Chicago Bears fired coach Lovie Smith on Monday, December 28, 2012, after the team missed the playoffs for the fifth time in six seasons. Smith was informed of the decision by general manager Phil Emery on the day after the Bears beat Detroit to finish 10-6 but still didn't make the playoffs. Smith led the Bears to a Super Bowl, but also saw his team collapse in the second half of the past two seasons. Hired in 2004, Smith led the Bears to three division titles, two NFC title games and a 2007 Super Bowl appearance in his nine seasons. His record is 81-63, and he leaves with one year left on his contract. The Bears scheduled a news conference Tuesday to discuss the move. Even though Chicago closed with a win, the Bears needed a loss by Minnesota to get into the playoffs. The Vikings, though, beat Green Bay to clinch a postseason spot, leaving Chicago as the second team since the postseason expanded to 12 teams to miss out after a 7-1 start. The other was Washington in 1996. CBS Sports NFL Insider Jason La Canfora reported Sunday that Smith's tenuous hold on his job "would be further imperiled should his team fail to get into the postseason." But Smith, who had one year remaining on his current deal, shouldn't have any trouble finding work. League sources told La Canfora that Smith should land headcoaching interviews with other NFL teams. Smith's record ranks third on the Bears' all-time list, behind George Halas and Mike Ditka. The highlight of his tenure was the run to the title game that ended with a loss to the Indianapolis Colts. It was the first time two black coaches met for the championship, with Smith going against his mentor Tony Dungy. The Bears made the playoffs just three times and posted three postseason victories under Smith. The 2010 team beat Seattle after the Seahawks won their division with a 7-9 record, but the Bears lost to Green Bay in the NFC title game at Soldier Field. There was speculation Smith would be let go following the 2011 team's collapse, but he got one more year while general manager Jerry Angelo was fired. Ultimately, the struggles on offense did him in. Known for solid defenses, Smith oversaw a unit that was consistently effective and at times ranked among the league's best with stars such as Brian Urlacher, Lance Briggs and later Julius

sailing along at 7-1 and eyeing a big playoff run after collapsing the previous season, with the defense taking the ball away and scoring at an eye-opening rate to compensate for a struggling offense, but the schedule took a tougher turn. They dropped back-toback games to Houston and San Francisco and five of six in all before closing out with wins at Arizona and Detroit. Injuries mounted along the way, and what looked like a playoff run slipped from Lovie Smith their grasp, just as it did after a promising start in 2011. sues in that area.

Will President Barack Obama cry for inner city youth? By David Muhammad New America Media

Like President Obama and many others across the country, I too wiped away tears as I watched the horrifying news coverage of the tragic shootings in Newtown, CT. I immediately called my children who were still in school. I sat watching the television trying to fathom how I would respond if I got a call that a shooting had occurred at my children’s school. This brought on more tears. But for the parents of 20 children and six other families in Newtown, it wasn’t an exercise; it was an excruciating reality. I then watched and listened to our President, and like parents around the world, the shooting had affected him emotionally as well. Twenty children gunned down. He struggled to hold back tears. It was then that my phone buzzed. I quickly grabbed it

to see if it was one of my children calling back. But it wasn’t. It was a colleague in Chicago. I had emailed her the day before asking for research into one of the mentoring programs in the city’s schools for youth with the highest risk of being shot. She provided me with the information I was seeking. Then she included a P.S.: “What a devastating horrible day in CT. But frankly I wish people cared this much when it was children on the south and west sides of Chicago.” I was snapped back into reality with the email. The tragedy in Newtown was truly horrific. But there is similar carnage carried out every day in the streets of America’s cities, especially in the President’s hometown of Chicago, where I work in Oakland, in Philadelphia, and many other cities across the nation. In 2010, nearly 700 Chicago school children were

President Barack Obama cries for the young victims of the Sandy Hook school shooting. shot and 66 of them died. Last year, Mayor Rahm Emanuel attended a memorial for 260 school children who had been killed in just the previous three years. On several occasions in the past year, tens of people have been shot in a single weekend on the streets of the city. The worst three-day stretch saw 10 killed and 37 wounded in gun fire. But Google the term “Chicago weekend shootings” and the results are far too many deadly weekends to count. Oakland, CA, has seen a huge increase in shootings. Last year, three small children were murdered in shootings. The youngest victim hadn’t yet turned 2. Oakland has become the first city in the country to have its police force taken over by a federal

court. Because of a lack of resources, the city has one of the lowest police to resident ratios in the country. Gun violence in America is a pandemic, but there is no round-the-clock news coverage. No national address from the President with tears. No pledge for urgent change. Why? Is it because the children who die on the streets of America’s cities are black and brown? Is it because they are poor? What makes the victims of everyday inner-city gun violence expendable? Like the horrendous shooting in Newtown, easy access to guns and the challenges of mental illness contribute to the violence on America’s streets. Like the calls for change in guns laws

that have been heard following this massacre, so too do we need tighter gun control because of the death and destruction that touches the hearts of mourning mothers in American cities every day. Speaking at a prayer vigil in Newtown, Obama said, “Can we honestly say that we’re doing enough to keep our children, all of them, safe from harm? The answer is no, we’re not doing enough. And we’ll have to change.” Mr. President, this is so very true. But it is not only these one-day mass shootings that cause us to cry out for the need to change, but also the daily gun violence that plagues our cities. “We will be told that the causes of such violence are complex, and that is true,” Obama said. “No single law, no set of laws, can eliminate evil or prevent every act, but that can’t be an excuse for inaction. Surely, we can do better than this.” We can do better in Chicago, in Oakland, in Philadelphia, and in every city in America.

City of Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett became a part-time sanitation worker when he joined a sanitation crew near W. Oklahoma Ave., on December 27th where he donned a sanitation uniform and pushed garbage carts to and from homes in the area to a waiting sanitation truck. The mayor used the occasion to highlight the importance of the city’s recycling program. During a brief rest period, the mayor said: “Recycling is way up” due in part to the “single stream where newspapers, glass and plastics are collected together”, which can be sold at a profit. Over the last two years, the mayor said the city has profited, making more than $2 million. Conversely, he added: “The city loses money because of the landfill cost associated with collecting garbage. The part we want is to have an increase where we make money,” the mayor added. “More recycling is good for the city and the environment," the mayor concluded. And what did he learn in being a temporary sanitation worker? “Not to push two garbage carts at the same time.”

MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN The Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper Louvenia Johnson Luther Golden Nathan Conyers (1981-2008) (1981-2005) (1981- ) Lynda J. Jackson-Conyers, Publisher Jacquelyn D. Heath, Editorial Page Editor

The cultural wants and desires of gun control By Andre Perry Gun control, gun control, gun control. In spite of this holiday season, I’ve heard the phrase “gun control” more than “peace on earth.” As an educator in the aftermath of the Sandy Hook Elementary tragedy, there would be few better presents for me than a national ban on assault weapons, body armor and high volume magazines. Yet I have to admit that while a national ban would be a tremendous political gift, I don’t see it as a watershed solution to our culture of violence. The discourse of gun control must quickly transition towards peace if we want substantive change. So excuse me as I start my soliloquy with a brief commentary on Quentin Tarantino’s latest film, "Django Unchained." Django is a spaghetti western that some people are calling a Southern because it’s also a slave narrative set two years before the Civil War in the Deep South. But, like most Westerns, the movie features nomadic gunfighters on a moral quest to deliver justice and order by rescuing good from the clutches of evil. Westerns are certainly one of the most American of genres, and consequently they embody visions of how we see ourselves. John Wayne, the Lone Ranger and Clint Eastwood are more than movie stars; they are American icons because of their roles in Westerns. Django is a quintessential American character that just happens to be enslaved. His slave status accentuates how limited we’ve portrayed our American heroes. The master of pulp, Tarantino finds ways to expose the real cheekiness of American culture. In the case of Django, there is nothing more illogical, violent and even silly than racism and the institution of slavery. Likewise there should be nothing more heroic than the formerly enslaved killing off their white oppressors and riding off in the sunset. What is fascinating about Tarantino and his fetish for

Dr. Andre Perry violence is that he reveals our cultural wants and desires. Tarantino sees our national mores so well because he wears so much of his own on his sleeve. In the United States, to make things right you’ve got to get even. Getting even means blowing someone’s head off. After one of the most unspeakable acts of mass murder and gun violence ever committed on American soil, the following days saw gun sales go up. Critiquing Tarantino for having too much gun violence is the national pot calling the kettle black. Just as I paid for and enjoyed Django, we morbidly cheer when someone gets even using violence. As Martin Luther King, Jr. pointed out, eye-for-an-eye forms of justice leaves everybody blind. In one of the final scenes after Django exacts revenge, his antagonist Stephen, played by Samuel Jackson screams, “You’re going to be the one who’s on those wanted posters.” The cycle of getting even never ends. I don’t agree with most of the National Riffle Association’s response to the Sandy Hook massacre. But, I don’t think removing weapons of war is the ultimate answer either. America’s gun culture goes well beyond the NRA. Gun control is a feature that presents our flawed sense of heroism like a Tarantino film. We’ll line up for that show. As for peace; well, peace is a character actor that just doesn’t seem to interest us.

A special message from Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett Friend -After a hard fought election, President Obama was re-elected this November. Voting is at the heart of what makes our democracy great. No matter how frustrated we become with our leaders, we always know we can sound our voice at the polls. But now, certain extreme elements of the Republican party in Wisconsin, and across the country, are trying to undermine the rights of qualified voters to cast their ballot in a way that tilts the playing field in favor of their candidates for office. In key swing states, Republicans are evaluating a proposal that would divide electoral college votes by congressional district instead of the current winner take all system. If this method had been in place for the November election Mitt Romney would have received significant electoral college votes in those swing states, even though President Obama won the popular vote in those states, effectively mak-

Mayor Tom Barrett ing Mitt Romney our President-elect. In fact, news outlets have reported that if this system had been implemented nationwide in past elections, we would have never seen a President Obama, a President Carter, or a President Kennedy. The Republicans want to rig the game. They know what they’re doing and we need to stop them. Sign the pledge to join me in standing

up for fair and broadly accessible elections. Here in Wisconsin, Republicans have relentlessly attempted to make it more difficult for voters to register and cast their ballots, and the problem extends well beyond my home state. The right-wing’s suppressive tactics are quickly evolving into a nationwide war on voting rights. We can’t sit silently by as they try to manipulate the democratic process for political advantage. We can’t let them attack the very democratic institutions and rights that others have sacrificed so much to gain--just because they don’t believe they can win in a fair election fight. If we don’t stop them now, they’ll just keep getting bolder and bolder. I plan to stand up to protect the democratic process whenever and wherever it’s under attack. Sign the pledge to join me. -Best, Tom Barrett

The seven things you need to know about the tax deal By Matt Compton For the WhiteHouse.gov. Late on Tuesday, January 1, 2013, Republicans and Democrats in the House of Representatives joined the Senate in passing the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012. That means middleclass families won’t see an increase in their income tax rates. We’ve avoided the fiscal cliff. President Obama will sign the legislation soon. Last night, he described the agreement as, “one step in the broader effort to strengthen our economy and broaden opportunity for everybody. “Under this law, more than 98 percent of Americans and 97 percent of small businesses will not see their income taxes go up,” he said. “Millions of families will continue to receive tax credits to help raise their kids and send them to college. Companies will continue to receive tax credits for the research that they do, the investments they make, and the clean energy jobs that they create. And 2 million Americans who are out of work but out there looking, pounding the pavement every day, are going to continue to receive unemployment benefits as long as they’re actively looking for a job.” We know that a lot of people have questions about the deal, so we’ve pulled together some of the most impor-

tant facts. Here are the seven things you need to know: 1. As the President promised, income tax rates for middle-class families will stay low permanently. That's good news for 98 percent of Americans and 97 percent of small businesses.

2. As the President promised for the first time in 20 years a bipartisan agreement will increase tax rates on the wealthy. That rate increase will be immediate and permanent. Individuals making more than $250,000 will (Continued on pg. 5)

Setting limits and boundaries (Week 1) “But we will not boast of authority we do not have. Our goal is to stay within the boundaries of God’s plan for us…” - 2 Corinthians 10:13 (NLT) In response to our readers’ request, we will begin the New Year discussing the topic of boundaries. As we walk through this topic, we will learn that respecting God’s prescribed boundaries is healthy for our souls and establishing boundaries with others is crucial in our relationships with others. This week we will begin with discussing God’s prescribed boundaries. Some people think of the Bible and Christianity as a set of rules, a list of “dos” and “don’ts” that somehow stifle a person’s freedom. But that’s not how God intends it to be. Christianity isn’t about rules. It’s about a relationship, a relationship with God’s Son, Jesus Christ and God’s Word. You can say the Bible is our security fence. In it God has

set the limits for us and given us certain directions for life. Actually, the purpose of boundaries is to teach, not to punish. It is through limits and boundaries that God’s people begin to understand that their actions (positive or negative) result in predictable consequences. In His Word God outlines harmful behaviors and beneficial behaviors. He tells us what actions will get us in trouble and what actions will lead to blessings. By giving such choices and consequences, it provides God’s people with a structure for good, godly decision making. In other words, it is our choice whether or not we will stay within the boundaries God has established. If we choose to live over the edge, there will be consequences. In Proverbs 30:5 we are reminded that every word of God is pure. Every word of God has been tested and proven in the furnace of man’s experience and His promises are a shield to them that put their trust in God.

others about what you will tolerate, and what you won’t tolerate. These boundaries clarify expectations, much like rules in a game. These boundaries also help to create predictability and stability in a relationship. Many relational problems concern boundaries — or more specifically, the lack of boundaries. Since many people have problems setting personal boundaries, our focus for the balance of the month will be focused on setting relational boundaries.

us. God is not trying to spoil our fun. He’s trying to keep us safe from the evil of this world. That’s not a bad thing. It really is a good thing. The next time you begin to think about the Bible as a set of rules and regulations just waiting to be broken, remember God loves you and He gives boundaries to protect you. In Isaiah 55:8 God says: “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways.” The bottom line is God’s ways are not your ways, nor can you change them to make

them your ways. Accepting God’s imposed limitations will bring a happier life because you can be assured that God’s limitations will protect you and guide you toward what is best for you. Beloved, when it comes to personal and relational boundaries with others, it is YOUR responsibility to define those boundaries and reinforce them. You must guard your boundaries carefully so others do not presume they can tell you what to think, feel or do. It is your responsibility to be clear with

The Women’s Auxiliary and the State Laymen of The General Baptist State Convention of Wisconsin, Inc., hosted their annual collaborative banquet on Saturday, December 15th at Antioch Baptist Church, 2033 W. Congress Street to raise funds for convention youth of member churches to travel to St. Louis, MO to participate in the “Bible Bowl” and the annual basketball competition. Money raised from the banquet is earmarked for travel, lodging and other expenses. According to Deacon Albert Brown, president of the State Laymen, more than 45 youth have taken the trip to St. Louis to compete. The Women’s Auxiliary and the State Laymen, in hosting the banquet, are making every attempt to reach out to youth in the community by providing extracurricular activities, tutoring, serving as mentors, coaching Bible skills and assisting in the development of young men with sound Christian character. The guest speaker was Rev. Leon Pitts of Damascus Missionary Baptist Church. Pictured above (right photo) are some of the young men who participate in the Bible Bowl and who also served as waiters for the banquet fundraiser.

Board authorizes boost to starting teacher salary, extension of residency compliance period for hard-to-fill positions

2969 S. Howell Avenue, Milwaukee 53207. The merger is expected to strengthen the educational programs with a K-8 integrated arts and humanities specialty. • Approved the mutual termination of a charter contract with the under-enrolled Professional Learning Institute and the closure of the Milwaukee School of Entrepreneurship, which has been underperforming academically. Both schools will close in June 2013. Milwaukee Public Schools is Wisconsin’s largest school district, serving nearly 80,000 students in more than 160 schools across the city. U.S. News and World Report named MPS’ Rufus King International School and Ronald Wilson Reagan College Preparatory High School the two best high schools in the state and among the 200 best in the country in 2012. In the past year, Milwaukee Public Schools posted a growing graduation rate 17 points higher than the rate for 2000.

The

On Friday, December 21, 2012 the Milwaukee Board of School Directors authorized a boost to the starting teacher salary for new Milwaukee Public Schools teachers in a move to make the district more competitive as MPS seeks 700 new teachers for the upcoming school year. New teachers and administrators will also have 24 months instead of the current 12 months to move into the city of Milwaukee if they’re coming into hard-tofill positions. A third year to comply with residency would be an option in hardship cases. The salary move raises starting pay to $41,000 from $37,721, making MPS more competitive with Milwaukeearea districts and other large urban school systems. The Board also: • Approved a charter and lease for The Banner School of Milwaukee, which would serve grades 6-8 in a currently unused MPS school building at 7171 W. Brown Deer Road, Milwaukee 53223. • Approved a charter for MTEC Environmental Science school, which would focus on environmental science, serving grades K4-5 in 2013-14 and eventually growing to serve middle- and highschool students. A site lease has not yet been approved. • Approved a merger of Dover Street School and the Tippecanoe School for the Arts and Humanities in the building they both share at

Local eye care specialists explain risks and treatment options for glaucoma By Cheryl L. Dejewski Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness in the U.S., especially for AfricanAmericans. In fact, black Americans have a 6-8 times higher risk of developing glaucoma than whites, and a recent study found that one in five black Americans age 75 and older has glaucoma. What exactly is glaucoma? It’s an eye disease that causes progressive damage to the optic nerve and is often related to fluid pressure in the eye. Left undetected and/ or untreated, glaucoma first causes loss of side vision and later can rob all of your sight. If you have diabetes or a relative with glaucoma, your risk of developing the disease greatly increases. And, once you have glaucoma, you’re more likely to suffer falls and car accidents as damage to your optic nerve leads to a “tunneling” of your vision. Glaucoma is known as the “sneak thief of sight” because the most common type is painless and progresses so slowly that most people don’t notice symptoms for

years—until severe permanent damage has already occurred. How can you protect yourself from losing sight to glaucoma? The partners at Eye Care Specialists, an ophthalmology practice that focuses on educating and caring for Milwaukee’s African-American community, have an answer. They advise that you schedule regular eye exams to check for the disease and, if diagnosed, follow your doctor’s recommendations for scheduling laser treatment and/or using prescription medication eyedrops. They also suggest you read the following information regarding glaucoma diagnosis, risks and treatment. Do you have glaucoma? How eye care specialists check for the disease Daniel Ferguson, MD, an ophthalmologist and eye surgeon who performs advanced drainage implant procedures to alleviate glaucoma-related eye pressure, advises, “Since glaucoma and other sight-threatening conditions often don’t exhibit early symptoms, regular eye exams are important for any-

Glaucoma can cause a gradual “tunneling” of vision that often goes unnoticed until permanent sight loss occurs. one past age 40.” Ferguson notes that a thorough examination for glaucoma should include the following: Ophthalmoscopy: An instrument called an “ophthalmoscope” is used to look into and light up the back of the eye to check the health of the retina and look for signs of glaucoma (like abnormal optic nerve size and loss of pink coloring). For the best view inside, the pupils are dilated. Tonometry (pressure) testing: Measures inner eye pressure by determining how

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

much pressure is necessary to cause a slight indentation on the outer part of the eye. This is done either by directing a warm puff of air at the eye or painlessly touching it with what is called a “tonometer.” Normal pressure readings range from 12-21, but can vary by hour and day. Visual field testing: During this test, the patient stares into a machine and presses a button when they see flashes of light. A computer then plots a computerized “map” of the range of sight based on what areas have been lost. Loss of side vision is a common sign of glaucoma. Gonioscopy: A special hand-held contact lens with a mirror inside is used to examine the angle where the iris meets the cornea. This helps determine the type of glaucoma and treatment plan. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) testing: Eye Care Specialists joins Harvard Medical School and other prestigious institutions in offering this advancement. Patients focus on a dot while a safe, invisible laser light scans the inside of the eye. The OCT then creates detailed printouts (similar to CT scans) that visualize and measure any changes to the optic nerve and retina (an area smaller than the head of a pin)—often before damage occurs. If glaucoma is detected, we can treat it with drops, laser therapy or surgery. Follow-up scans are used to watch for changes and prevent future vision loss. Staff and patients love that the OCT is fast and painless and results aren’t influenced by attention span, comfort, or ability to follow directions. Know the risks for getting and having glaucoma Head of Ophthalmology at Aurora Sinai Medical Center and partner at Eye Care Specialists private practice, Dr. Brett Rhode highlights the following glaucoma-related risks: • Glaucoma is most common in adults over age 40, and the risk increases with each decade. Regular screenings should start at this time. • If you have a sibling or parent with glaucoma, your risk of developing the disease increases 5 to 10 times. As such, children and siblings of glaucoma patients should have their eyes checked every 1-2 years. (Even if initial results are normal, glaucoma can often develop over time.) • Ethnicity affects your risk rate. If you are black, you

have a 6-8 times higher risk of going blind from glaucoma than a white person. Hispanics and Asians also have a higher risk rate than Caucasians. •Other risk factors include nearsightedness, diabetes (doubles the risk of glaucoma), steroid use, and having a previous eye injury. • According to one study, glaucoma patients 50 and older were three times as likely to have experienced a fall in the previous year and six times as likely to have been involved in a car accident in the previous five years as were members of control groups. They were also more likely to be at fault when a collision did occur. Why the increased risk of injury? Glaucoma can damage the optic nerve, which may lead to potentially dangerous narrowing of the visual field or “tunnel vision.” • Prompt diagnosis and treatment are vital to protecting and preserving vision. Encourage your siblings and other family members to be checked for glaucoma, especially if one of you has the disease. If any of you do not have an eye care specialist, you can call 414-321-7035 for a free educational booklet on the disease and information about scheduling a comprehensive screening that includes ophthalmoscopy, tonometry (pressure), visual field, gonioscopy, and OCT laser scan testing. This screening is typically covered by Medicare and most insurances. You’ll be helping your family to see life to the fullest . . . now and in the future. Learn the treatment Options Leading laser eye surgeon and continuing education lecturer Dr. Mark Freedman and Harvard graduate and corneal specialist Dr. Daniel Paskowitz answer the following questions: How is glaucoma treated? Dr. Freedman: Glaucoma can’t be cured, but treatment can usually halt further damage. The most common type of glaucoma is a lifelong condition that requires continual management. To prevent vision loss, we prescribe drops to lower pressure by either decreasing fluid production in or increasing fluid drainage out of the eye. (Continued on pg 14)

Talking Health with Dr. Carter What are the top ten nutritional supplements for women? 1. Multivitamin-mineral formula (MVM), supplements contain a combination of vitamins and minerals, and sometimes other ingredients as well. They go by many names, including multis and multiples or simply vitamins. The vitamins and minerals in MVMs have unique roles in the body. 2. Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is a watersoluble nutrient found in some foods. In the body, it acts as an antioxidant, helping to protect cells from the damage caused by free radicals. Free radicals are compounds formed when our bodies convert the food we eat into energy. People are also exposed to free radicals in the environment from cigarette smoke, air pollution, and ultraviolet light from the sun. The body also needs vitamin C to make collagen, a protein required to help wounds heal. In addition, vitamin C improves the absorption of iron from plantbased foods and helps the immune system work properly to protect the body from disease. 3. Vitamin D is a nutrient found in some foods that is needed for health and to maintain strong bones. It does so by helping the body absorb calcium (one of bone's main building blocks) from food and supplements. People who get too little vitamin D may develop soft, thin, and brittle bones, a condition known as rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults. Together with calcium, vitamin D also helps protect older adults from osteoporosis. Vitamin D is found in cells throughout the body. 4. Vitamin E is found naturally in some foods, added to others, and available as a dietary supplement. "Vitamin E" is the collective name for a group of fat-soluble compounds with distinctive antioxidant activities. Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant that stops the production of ROS formed when fat undergoes oxidation. In addition to its activities as an antioxidant, vitamin E is involved in immune function and, as shown primarily by in vitro studies of

cells, cell signaling, regulation of gene expression, and other metabolic processes 5. Vitamin K2 cleans calcium deposits from your arteries and deposits it in your bones, and you have most likely never heard of it. It's almost like the old good news/bad news jokes. The good news is Vitamin K2 has been clinically proven to provide extraordinary benefits for bone health and cardiovascular health, plus it is a powerful anti-oxidant and some emerging science indicates it might help your joints and intestinal health. Now for the bad news. It costs $1.5 million per kilogram so most supplement companies find it is not cost effective to include in their formulas. As long as we can buy a house and a Ferrari for the price of a kilo of K2, it may remain a secret that is relegated to research papers. However, natto, a typical breakfast food in Japan, is made from steamed and fermented soy beans. Its use in Japan dates back hundreds of years to the age of samurais who believed it increased their strength and quickened their reflexes. In the last ten years several studies have found natto, containing the active component vitamin K2, to increase bone mineral density and reduce bone fractures. 6. Calcium is a mineral found in many foods. The body needs calcium to maintain strong bones and to carry out many important functions. Almost all calcium is stored in bones and teeth, where it supports their structure and hardness. The body also needs calcium for muscles to move and for nerves to carry messages between the brain and every body part. In addition, calcium is used to help blood vessels move blood throughout the body and to help release hormones and enzymes that affect almost every function in the human body. 7. Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body and is essential to good health. Approximately 50 percent of total body magnesium is found in bone. (Continued on pg. 19)

Is there an alternative to drops? Dr. Paskowitz: In some cases, when drops alone cannot control the pressure, or side effects are intolerable, or multiple types of drops are required, laser treatment may be an alternative, including LTP & SLT (which increase fluid drainage) and ECP (which decreases fluid production) procedures. All take less than 10 minutes at our surgery center and are covered by Medicare and most insurances. How safe are laser procedures? Dr. Freedman: LTP, SLT & ECP have very good success rates for controlling glaucoma and reducing the need for drops or surgery. They also have lower complication rates than other glaucoma surgeries and can sometimes be repeated, as needed. What are the major benefits? Dr. Paskowitz: If laser treatment achieves steady normal pressures, it can reduce two huge burdens— cost and compliance. This is especially important for people who already have other conditions requiring daily medication(s) that they have

to worry about buying and taking. Who qualifies for laser therapy? Dr. Freedman: Candidacy depends on your specific condition and must be discussed with your eye care specialist. In rare cases when patients are unable to have or don’t respond to laser treatment, traditional surgical procedures may be required. Our practice also offers new advanced procedures that use special implant devices to drain fluid and reduce pressure. FREE Booklets & Information

Eye Care Specialists’ doctors are dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of cataracts, glaucoma, diabetic eye disease, and macular degeneration.

Meal Times

A FAMILY FEATURES

ll across the country, food lovers are cooking up something wholesome and flavorful. They are making a commitment to eating better on their own terms by making more meals at home. They are finding that home cooking with real ingredients is inherently healthier — and it’s surprisingly easy. With a few simple changes, you can make a big difference in the healthfulness of everyday meals. “By adding herbs and spices, it’s easy to make healthy foods more flavorful. And it’s a smart way to freshen up your family’s standby recipes while gradually reducing reliance on sugar, sodium or fat,” said Chef Mark Garcia, of the McCormick Kitchens. For freshened-up family favorites, try making these simple, healthful changes that are simply delicious: n

Replace the heavy breading on chicken tenders with a flour mixture spiced with paprika, black pepper and oregano. Bake it in the oven to reduce fat and calories.

For a healthier take on beef stew, use low sodium broth and serve over whole grain pasta or brown rice instead of mashed potatoes.

For a delicious twist on traditional chili, try using boneless, skinless chicken breasts with black beans and corn. Pump up the authentic Southwest flavor with cumin, garlic powder and red pepper.

What are the top ten nutritional supplements for women? (Continued from pg. 14) The other half is found predominantly inside cells of body tissues and organs. Only 1 percent of magnesium is found in blood, but the body works very hard to keep blood levels of magnesium constant. Magnesium is needed for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body. It helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, keeps heart rhythm steady, supports a healthy immune system, and keeps bones strong. Magnesium also helps regulate blood sugar levels, promotes normal blood pressure, and is known to be involved in energy metabolism and protein synthesis. There is an increased interest in the role of magnesium in preventing and managing disorders such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. Dietary magnesium is absorbed in the small intestines. Magnesium is excreted through the kidneys 8. Strontium is a common element which is naturally found in your bones. Studies show supplementation with strontium in its various forms is well tolerated and completely safe. Strontium lies directly below calcium on the periodic table of elements and that makes calcium, strontium and magnesium all in the same chemical family. They are all naturally occurring metals found in the soil, in foods, and in your body. As an alkaline earth element, strontium is similar to calcium in its absorption in the gut, incorporation in bone, and elimination from the body through the kidneys. Strontium is naturally present in trace amounts with around 100 micrograms in every gram of bone, so when you supplement with strontium you are simply making more of this element available for incorporation into your bone. 9. Fish oil is oil derived from the tissues of oily fish. Fish oils contain the omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), precursors of certain eico-

Thursday, January 3, 2013 - Wednesday, January 9, 2013

sanoids that are known to reduce inflammation throughout the body, and have other health benefits. The omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil are thought to be beneficial in treating hypertriglyceridemia, and possibly beneficial in preventing heart disease. 10. Adaptogen is a metabolic regulator which increases the ability of an organism to adapt to environmental factors, and to avoid damage from such factors. Environmental factors can be either physiological (external), such as injury or aging, or psychological (internal), such as anxiety. An adaptogen must have a normalizing effect, i.e., counteracting or preventing disturbances to homeostasis brought about by stressors. Moreover, it must be innocuous with a broad range of therapeutic effects without causing any major side effects. The adaptogen concept does not fit easily into the Western model of medicine.
