ESPN's Stuart Scott lost longtime fight with cancer

He did it with a wink, a smile and style. Stuart Scott, the anchor who energized ESPN’s sportscasts with a fresh vibe filled with popculture references and catchphrases so out of the norm that viewers and sometimes his bosses didn’t know what to make of him, died Sunday, January 4, 2015 of the cancer he had fought three times over the past seven years.

Scott, 49, was one of the most recognizable and popular faces of ESPN, eventually joining the network’s “SportsCenter” and NFL and NBA shows. The highest-profile black sportscaster at the network, he joined ESPN in 1993 and his exuberant expressions, like “booyah,” "cool as the other side of the pillow” and “just call him butter ‘cause he’s on a roll,” became his trademarks. It was a different tone, something LeBron James called an unmistakable “swag.” Scott “didn’t push the envelope,” former ESPN anchor Dan Patrick said in

a video tribute produced by the network, “he bulldozed it.”

“While he is now considered a trailblazer, he was once considered a leper,” his former colleague, Bonnie Bernstein, wrote on Facebook. “ESPN executives didn’t know what to make of him in the early ’90s. The hip-hop slang. The catchphrases the bosses didn’t understand. BOOYAH! What the hell does that mean?? Stu also had a polarizing effect on the air. There were plenty of viewers out there who felt Stu’s shtick was like proverbial nails on a chalkboard.

“And Stu knew it. We would talk about it. But you know what? He never wavered. Not one bit. He actually reveled in it. I always admired that about him and hoped the bosses would come to understand what I saw when Stu and I were on the road together covering the NBA Playoffs. The guy was a superstar. The black players and the fans would

Stuart Scott flock to him. His star was as bright as Jordan’s. Or Shaq’s.

Finally, there was someone on the air who spoke their language. It was incredibly refreshing.”

Scott’s death resonated with top sports stars, so many of whom had seen him work firsthand through bouts with the disease. Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant, Tiger Woods and Michael Jordan, among so many, tweeted their sympathy. “I’m so sad to hear the news that Stuart

has passed away,” Jordan said in a statement. Like Scott, he had attended the University of North Carolina. “He was truly a trailblazer in his field and, by refusing to change his style, made himself into a star. I always enjoyed sitting down to talk to him.

But to me he wasn’t just a broadcaster, he was an old friend who I’d known since college. He fought so hard against cancer and I hoped he’d win the battle. I sent my sincerest condolences to his daughters, Taelor and Sydni, and his family and friends.

Booyah, my brother.”

Scott’s cancer was first diagnosed when his appendix was removed in 2007. It recurred four years later and again in 2013. Scott fought the disease by working himself into shape with a mixed

martial arts regimen that helped him cope with 58 infusions of chemotherapy and three extensive abdominal surgeries. He did not, he told the New York Times last March, know his prognosis.

Only in the past year or so had Scott gone public with his private battle, opening up about it in the stirring speech that Kolber mentioned when he was given the Jimmy V Perseverance Award at the ESPYs in July. (That award is, of course, named for Jim Valvano, the North Carolina State basketball coach who died of cancer in 1993.) He was, as the network’s Sage Steele noted in the ESPN video tribute, terribly ill at the time and his appearance was in doubt until the last minute. But this was Stuart Scott.

Mayor and Common Council urge unemployed individuals to attend sessions for “Compete Milwaukee” transitional job openings The City of Milwaukee, in collaboration with the Milwaukee Area Workforce Investment Board (MAWIB) and the United Migrant Opportunity Services (UMOS), is hosting two information sessions for unemployed individuals interested in 115 newly-created six-month transitional jobs with the City of Milwaukee.

Transitional Jobs participants who are successfully recruited, interviewed and employed will have the opportunity to work in the Department of Public Works, the Department of City Development and Neighborhood Services, and the Port of Milwaukee. The 115 workers will gain skills and experience while working under the direct supervision of city supervisors and alongside city employees and will be paid at least $10.10 per hour.

The sessions are scheduled at the following date and times: • Wednesday, January 14, 9:00 to 11:00 a.m. at MAWIB, 2342 N. 27th St. • Wednesday, January 14, 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. at MAWIB, 2342 N. 27th St. Individuals interested in applying for the Compete Milwaukee transitional jobs MUST meet the following requirements and attend one of the information sessions on January 14, 2015: • Must reside in this geographical area at the time of enrollment: Sherman Boulevard on the West, Silver Spring Drive on the North, Hwy I-43 on the East, and

Mayor Tom Barrett Mitchell Street on the South.

• Must be 18—64 years old at the time of enrollment.

• If 24 years of age or older, MUST be the biological, adoptive or primary relative caregiver of a child under the age of 18.

• Individual must have one of the following: a child support order, a child welfare reunification plan or be an ex-offender.

• Must have been unemployed for the last four (4) consecutive calendar weeks prior to enrollment.

• Cannot be receiving W2 benefits and not eligible to receive Unemployment Insurance Compensation.

• Have an annual household income that is less than 150 percent of the federal poverty guideline for the household size.

NOTE: Individuals who participated in the Transform Milwaukee Jobs Program are not eligible to participate in this opportunity.

For more information, job seekers can call UMOS at (414) 389-6000 and visit http://www.milwaukee.gov/

competemilwaukee “Given the overwhelming response we received regarding the transitional job positions in 2014 and the value transitional workers added to City services while gaining valuable work experience, I’m extremely pleased we are able to offer an additional 115 openings,” said Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett. “Our continued hope is that these individuals receive quality training and experience and go on to gain fulltime employment.”

Alderman Ashanti Hamilton, the primary Common Council sponsor for Compete Milwaukee, said the variety of city departments taking part in the initiative offer participants a wide range of possible job opportunities.

“Compete Milwaukee is a prime opportunity for residents in some of the city’s most challenged areas to make their way into the employment pipeline,” Alderman Hamilton said. “I encourage job seekers who live in the targeted area and who meet the qualifications to come down on January 14th and see what Compete has to offer.”

“We are eager to continue with these temporary job placements as a means for participants to gain skills that will make them more competitive and could lead to full-time, family supporting employment,” states Lupe Martinez, President and Chief Executive Officer, UMOS.

Being Frank

For countless years African Americans have sought justice in this country for one reason or another. The reasons vary from police shootings to riding in the front of the bus. The means to gain justice from the system of oppression have always been either marching or media pressure. Just taking a look at events from 2014 shows that neither of these measures works.

Justice is a complex word when applied to the African American community.

On one hand some African Americans feel there isn’t any justice. Other African Americans feel there is too much justice. When a policeman beats or kills an African American the community cries no justice. When laws are passed that hone in on African Americans the cries change to too much justice.

These examples may seem outlandish but they symbol-

By: Frank James Special for the Milwaukee Times

New strategies for a new year

ize the paradox the African American community is in.

The main weapon African Americans have used to find justice in the USA has been the hallowed march. There isn’t a year that has gone past without some type of march being held. African Americans have been marching for at least 80 years. If one looked at the reason many of the marches were held they would find the same culprit. Since marching hasn’t changed anything, why do African Americans still do it? Why do they take to the streets singing hymns and chanting the same slogans getting no results?

Many older African Americans still cling to the famous marches of the 1960’s. If you research you will find that many of the so-called gains from those marches were already being discussed before the first minister called a meeting. Desegre-

gation was already being discussed in Washington and even Alabama before the first rally. Segregation was creating a nation within a nation and black dollars were being spent with black businesses.

When you look at what race spends the most today you understand that desegregation was a financial and military move. The speeches and marches just made it a readyfor-television drama.

The noble marches inevitably lead to media coverage. The use of the media to gain sympathy or to generate pressure on government has never worked. The only thing media pressure has

done is made several ministers famous and created high television ratings.

Overall the use of media pressure has only made African Americans look foolish and pathetic. If you look at the corporate world and government all decisions are made behind closed doors. The only time the media is informed is after the decision is made. The useless crying to the press only gives someone his or her 15 minutes of fame and becomes the lead off story for the 6 o'clock news.

If African Americans want results in this country they have to be smarter. To attempt to force county and national government to do something is absurd. As you can see from several local incidents the tactic doesn’t work. If you put a person’s back against the wall they are going to come out swinging. If African Americans

want the government officials on any level to comply with their desire they have to think. Fox, ABC, CBS or any other network could care less about the results African Americans want. These networks only want an eye grabbing lead off story. Results to the majority of problems in America come from serious negotiations behind closed doors. When African Americans realize this one fact. the justice they crave may become a reality.

Women as a 'change agent'

By Lena C. Taylor WI State Senetor Throughout history, we have seen the effectiveness of women in resolving conflicts and affecting lasting change. As elected women leaders in the United States, Egypt and Morocco, we know how important it is to include women in decisionmaking. In the Middle East, North Africa, and the United States, we have seen the active engagement of women in conflicts, revolutions, and the prevention of government shutdowns. Women leaders resolving conflict in the world at large could not come at a better time. From Iraq and Syria to Pakistan and Afghanistan, women are raising their voices, working to end conflict and speaking up for peace and the betterment of their families and communities. It is time for lawmakers to do our part as well.

Legislation has been an important tool to empower women in the fight for equal access to decision-making positions and governing bodies. In 2000, United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325 on Women, Peace and Security laid the foundation for a global vision of lasting peace. Women’s role in building that peace had been essential, especially in places where women have been actively excluded from leadership and decision-making roles.

UNSCR 1325 paves the way for countries to create National Action Plans on Women, Peace and Security.

rity, not just the presence of tanks and troops. Women’s leadership is associated with access to clean drinking water, food, health care, shelter, education, and bodily integrity.

Recently, women leaders convened in Morocco for the WAND, (Women Advocates for New Directions) and WiLL (Women Legislators’ Lobby) Legislative Exchange in Morocco.

The purpose was to advance women, peace and security Lena C. Taylor issues, encouraging their active participation in resolving The plans recognize that violent conflict, eliminating women are successful leaders in preventing and resolving conflicts, and their inclusion in decisionmaking processes is vital to the maintenance of international security and peace. They give governments a roadmap for advancing gender equality, protecting women’s rights and ensuring the full and equal participation of women in all peace, security, and decisionmaking processes.

Women understand that true security only comes with human and economic secu-

gender-based violence, and guaranteeing equal access to humanitarian aid in crisis situations.

All decision-makers should support global efforts to empower women and ensure their full and equal participation in all peace and security processes. As women leaders, we recommend that all governments support UNSCR 1325, create National Action Plans, and implement them immediately in support of putting dynamic women at the tables of power.

Together let’s raise our voices for peace and security.

The Counseling Corner As we begin the New Year, many of you are contemplating or have made New Year’s resolutions. A New Year’s resolution is a promise you make to yourself to start doing something good or stop doing something bad on the first day of the year. A few popular examples of New Year’s resolutions include: 1. Improve physical wellbeing: eat healthier, lose weight, exercise more, drink less alcohol, quit smoking, stop biting nails, and get rid of bad habits.

2. Improve mental well-being: laugh more often, enjoy life.

3. Improve finances.

4. Improve career: perform better at current job, get a better job; establish own business.

5. Improve self by becoming more organized, reducing the stress to be less grumpy, manage time better, perhaps watching less television and playing fewer sitting-down video games.

6. Improve education.

7. Take a trip.

New Year’s resolves (Week 1)

8. Volunteer to help others.

9. Improve social skills and enhance social intelligence.

10. Make new friends.

Whatever your 2015 New Year’s resolution(s) are, keep in mind, according to the American Psychological Association (hereinafter referred to as the “APA”) “the New Year isn’t meant to serve as a catalyst for sweeping character changes. It is a time for people to reflect on their past year’s behavior and promise to make positive lifestyle changes.” New Year’s resolutions should be

realistic. The APA offers the following suggestions to help your New Year’s Resolutions stick: Start small. Make resolutions you think you can keep.

If, for example, your aim is to exercise more frequently, schedule 3 or 4 days a week at the gym instead of 7. If you would like to eat healthier, try replacing dessert with something else you enjoy, like fruit or yogurt, instead of seeing your diet as a form of punishment.

Change one behavior at a time. Unhealthy behav-

iors develop over the course of time. Thus, replacing unhealthy behaviors with healthy ones requires time.

Don’t get overwhelmed and think that you have to reassess everything in your life.

Instead, work toward changing one thing at a time.

Talk about it. Share your experiences with family and friends. Consider joining a support group to reach your goals, such as a workout class at your gym or a group of coworkers quitting smoking.

Having someone to share your struggles and successes with makes your journey to a healthier lifestyle that much easier and less intimidating.

Don’t beat yourself up.

Perfection is unattainable.

Remember that minor missteps when reaching your goals are completely normal and OK. Don’t give up completely because you ate a brownie and broke your diet, or skipped the gym for a week because you were busy. Everyone has ups and downs; resolve to recover from your mistakes and get

back on track.

Ask for support. Accepting help from those who care about you and will listen strengthens your resilience.

Diabetes: What you THINK you know can hurt you

Diabetes is probably one of the most misunderstood diseases out there. Can it be caused by obesity and/or eating too many sweets? Is it true that diabetics can only eat certain foods? Is insulin always needed to control the disease? Here are four popular myths about diabetes debunked just for you.

Myth #1: Diabetes is caused by consuming too much sugar.

The truth: You may have heard that diabetes is brought on by eating too many sweets, but that isn’t the case. Type 1 diabetes is caused when the pancreas can no longer produce insulin, a hormone that’s necessary when

it comes to regulating your blood sugar levels. Although the exact cause of type 1 diabetes is still unknown, it’s believed to be brought on by a variety of factors, includ-

ing genetics and certain environmental triggers, such as toxins and viruses. Type 2 diabetes, on the other hand, is caused when the body doesn’t produce enough in-

sulin and/or is unable to use insulin properly.

Myth #2: Monitoring your blood sugar is painful.

The truth: It doesn’t have to be! If you experience pain while testing your blood sugar levels, then it’s time to make some simple changes in your everyday routine.

Myth #3: Obesity causes diabetes.

The truth: Yes, it’s true that being obese increases your risk for developing diabetes, but other factors, such as family history play a role as well. According to the American Diabetes Association, the majority of overweight people never develop type 2 diabetes, and many people

with type 2 diabetes are either at a normal weight or only slightly overweight.

Myth #4: All diabetics need insulin.

The truth: Not so! While this is true for type 1 diabetes, many people with type 2 diabetes are able to control their condition by leading a healthy lifestyle that involves a proper diet high in fresh fruits and vegetables and low in starches, saturated fats, sugar and sodium, healthy habits (no smoking), regular exercise and taking any doctor-prescribed medication(s).

Surprising effects of sleep deprivation If you’re anything like most Americans, then you probably get around six hours of sleep each night.

Although most of us can just gulp down a cup of coffee and go about our day, there are a handful of health issues that come along with being sleep deprived. We’re talking lower life expectancy and greater risks for heart disease and type 2 diabetes, but that’s not even the half of it! Read on to learn more about how sleep deprivation takes a toll on your overall well-being.

1. Weight gain Do you ever notice how when you’re tired, you tend to reach for salty potato chips, sweets and other junk foods? That’s because lack of sleep affects the hormones ghrelin and leptin, which are responsible for regulating hunger and stimulating your appetite.

2. Low libido Listen up ladies and gents!

Not getting enough sleep negatively affects your sex drive. If that’s not a good enough reason to get more sleep, then we don’t know what is!

3. Weaker immune system People who get little to no sleep are more likely to get sick due to the effect it has on their immune systems.

When you're sleep deprived, your body cannot produce the antibodies it needs to ward off colds, flu and other good look! viruses.

5. Memory loss 4. Aging skin A recent study conducted We all know about dark circles under the eyes, and in most cases, a little concealer will do the trick, but here’s something you might not know: When you don’t get enough sleep, your body releases the stress hormone cortisol, which breaks down your skin’s collagen. And when that happens, you’re left with sagging skin. Not a

by the University of California, Berkeley found that there’s a strong link between sleep deprivation and memory loss. UC Berkeley sleep rexsearcher, Matthew Walker, said in a statement: "What we have discovered is a dysfunctional pathway that helps explain the relationship between brain deterioration, sleep disruption and memory loss as we get older and with that, a potentially new treatment avenue.

When we are young, we have deep sleep that helps the brain store and retain new

facts and information. But as we get older, the quality of our sleep deteriorates and prevents those memories from being saved by the brain at night."

Beyond getting enough sleep, it’s important to get quality sleep. “By getting a good quantity of sleep, which is typically seven to eight hours, and by getting high quality sleep, which is uninterrupted sleep, sleep can really benefit you in myriad ways,” says BDO Fitness Expert, Sloan Luckie.

Personal Finance & Business

By Jason Alderman Director of Visa’s financial education programs

Yours, mine and ours: Planning stepfamily finances The Pew Research Center reports (http://www.pewsocialtrends.org/) that four in ten American adults have at least one steprelative, defined as a stepparent, a stepor-half sibling or a stepchild, in their family. While the Pew study says that many stepfamilies operate harmoniously, it also notes that adults "feel a stronger sense of obligation to their biological family members than they do to their step kin."

That is one reason why blended family finances can get so messy.

Couples planning to blend families often have to make financial arrangements that respect previous relationships with ex-spouses and their families. Issues range from childcare and eldercare to potentially complex matters involving businesses, investment assets and real estate. That's why involving trained experts in stepfamily financial planning is a must.

Here's a basic checklist of issues and solutions potential spouses and partners should consider: • Start with all cards on the table. Today's first-time marriages or partnerships

alone can introduce some staggering financial variables – business and inheritance issues, college debt, consumer debt or even past bankruptcies. Couples planning stepfamilies face even more complications. But all couples need to start with a critical first step – sharing personal information with a potential impact on finances.

Start with the following: • Current credit reports and credit scores. Extensive loans or bad credit for one or both partners can endanger future purchasing plans for auto, home or tuition. It's also important to share information about personal or cosigned loans to family and friends.

• Assets and liabilities.

Potential spouses or partners should know each other's financial assets and liabilities and any issues connected with them. As mentioned above, debt and credit issues may be a problem, but if one spouse has extensive assets, it's important to clarify whether those assets will be shared legally or promised to others.

• Legal issues. If divorce, child custody, foreclosure, bankruptcy, or any other civil or criminal legal proceedings are pending against either partner or members of their families, full disclosure is essential.

• Business and estate issues. If potential spouses or partners have significant estate or business assets assigned to children, former spouses or family members, those commitments need to be factored into the finances of the planned marriage or partnership.

• Bring in professional expertise. Beyond disclosure, it's good to have qualified professionals who have specific expertise with blended families and their many unique issues. Both partners should start by bringing any

existing advisors into the discussion. But if none exist and friends and family members don't have solid suggestions, the following organizations might provide local experts with specific skills in helping stepfamilies plan: • Financial planners.

The Association for Financial Counseling, Planning and Education and the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards are two nationwide organizations that can identify advisors in your area.

• Tax advisors. Your state CPA society can suggest qualified personal, business and estate tax advisors in your area.

• Estate planners and attorneys. Organizations like the National Association of Estate Planners & Councils and the American College of Trust and Estate Counsel might be able to help.

• Address problems before move-in. Most experts tell you it's best to start any new marriage or partnership with a clean slate – or a slate that's as clean as you can make it. That's doubly true with stepfamilies. As many

income, asset, debt, child custody, estate and business issues as possible should be identified and solutions put in place before the family is legally joined.

• Make a fresh estate plan. Financial experts say it's time to review all money issues whenever you face a major life event, and remarriage or re-partnership certainly qualifies. Even if the individuals have their own separate estate matters in order, stepfamily issues restart the planning clock on everything.

• Plan – or re-plan – your retirement. You may have planned a great retirement with a former spouse or on your own, but what if your future spouse hasn't? Whatever steps you've both taken toward retirement, you need to review your strategies so you can retire comfortably together.

Bottom line: Money issues complicate all relationships. But stepfamilies have unique, detailed planning needs that should be discussed and settled before marriage or move-in.
