Milwaukee recognized as ‘Playful City USA’ community Sign unveiling event featured Alderman Murphy, Mayor Barrett and MPS representative The City of Milwaukee’s recent recognition as a "Playful City USA” community for championing efforts to give children ample outdoor play opportunities was marked Monday, June 17, 2013, with a event at N. 94th St. and W. Blue Mound Rd. Alderman Michael J. Murphy, who authored legislation approved by the Common Council last year to require all new elementary schools to provide a minimum amount of safe, open play space to help keep children healthy and active, was joined by Mayor Tom Barrett and Denise Callaway from MPS to address the media and to unveil a new sign that tells everyone entering the city limits that Milwaukee is a “Playful City USA” community. In May, the city was honored with the Playful City USA designation by the national non-profit organization KaBOOM! Alderman Murphy said only one in five children in the U.S. live within walking distance of a park, and Playful City USA communities like Milwaukee are creating

innovative programs and initiatives and have earned recognition because of efforts to “allow kids to be kids and to best prepare them for their future.” “Academic research has shown a direct correlation between healthy minds and strong bodies,” Alderman Murphy said. “Now is the time to ensure that our children have access to a healthy and active lifestyle.” Mayor Barrett said: “As a Playful City USA, I am happy to report that the City of Milwaukee continues to enable children to grow into healthy, happy adults who will make positive changes in our community. I have always said that Milwaukee is a great place to live, work and PLAY!” The Council legislation sponsored by Alderman Murphy applies only to new public, private, and parochial elementary schools, and states that at least 75 square feet of outdoor play space must be provided for each child using the space at the time. In the event where that is not possible, supervised

safe trips to off-site recreation areas are required. A soft playing area, such as sand or mulch, is also required and concrete and asphalt surfaces under climbing equipment and slides will now be prohibited. In the 2013 city budget, the Common Council adopted Alderman Murphy’s amendment creating a Playground Improvement Challenge Fund – a $100,000 matching grant program to help fund improvements at city playgrounds. The fund is making resources available this year, and the first project will help fund improvements at the Merrill Park playground near N. 35th and W. Michigan Streets. For the Merrill Park playground project, U.S. Bank is providing $30,000, and Marquette University High School is contributing $10,000, Alderman Murphy said.

Fatherhood event will include young men in panel discussion

“To Be or Not To Be… A Father @ This Time” – an important panel discussion about fatherhood and related issues – will be held from 10 a.m. to 12 noon on Friday, June 21, 2013 at Parklawn YMCA, 4340 N. 46th St. Portia Young of WISNTV News will moderate the discussion, which will include exchanges between a group of young fathers and another group of young men who have chosen not to become a parent. The conversation will also touch on teen pregnancy, prevention of teen pregnancy, parenting and fatherhood. Alderman Willie C. Wade, a key sponsor of the event, said the event is free and open to the public and young men are encouraged to attend and take part. “This discussion is long overdue

and I believe will be helpful in terms of educating young men about some of the realities of teen pregnancy, as well as the responsibilities that go along with being a father,” he said.

The funding includes $422,000 in general purpose revenue and $78,000 in discretionary funding available through the Workforce Investment Act. Highlights of Governor Walker’s Summer Youth Employment program include: • At least 175 participants have the opportunity to work at community or faithbased organizations over the summer, receiving wages for 20 hours of work per week. • Another 50 participants have the opportunity to be placed at private-sector employers in manufacturing, healthcare, construction, information technology, and finance. • Participating youths complete a week of work-readiness training that covers career exploration, interviewing, work habits, team building exercises, financial literacy, and resume-writing. • Youths finish their summer work experience prepared for their return to school or entry-level employment. "The Summer Youth Employment program is an example of the significant investments Wisconsin is making to develop Milwaukee’s workforce, support job creation, and strengthen the local economy," governor Walker concluded. The DWD is a partner in the Governor’s Transform Milwaukee initiative, which is spearheaded by the Wisconsin Housing and Economic

Atima Omara-Alwala Because so many immigrants are from Mexico, much of the immigration debate has become an argument over border security in such Southwest states as Texas and Arizona. But other issues are equally relevant, like expanding visas or how, in a post 9/11 world, to find a way to focus enforcement efforts on genuine threats and protect due process rights for all, and of course expediting a path for DREAMers just to name a few. That's why it's very important to extend the fight for immigration to include dialogue as it affects everyone. The Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) has taken on immigration reform as it concerns Africans and Caribbean immigrants this year

by addressing one of the key contentions of an immigration bill: the diversity visas which have allowed a certain number of visas annually to countries with low immigration rates to the United States (traditionally benefiting a majority of Africans immigrants). The CBC wants to preserve the diversity visas. The GOP argues that the diversity visas should be tossed in favor of visas focused only to highly skilled immigrants. However, black African immigrants are among those highly skilled immigrants, according to the Migration Policy Institute report. They are well educated, with college completion rates that greatly exceed those for most other immigrant groups and US natives. And Black Africans come from countries with relatively high employment rates, some above 70 percent. Currently, the immigration bill has components that move us forward.

Yet we must not forget ALL the faces of the immigration discussion, people not unlike my parents, both of whom -- after decades here -- have made this place their home. My mother became a registered nurse with two bachelors and a masters and my father got his Ph.D. teaching the sciences at a major university. In 2007, my Dad achieved full circle after he was awarded a U.S. Fulbright to research and teach the next generation of Ugandans for year . Sometimes they are fleeing for their lives or come only with the shirts on their back and a dream to do better, but the same desire for freedom and opportunity that provoked the Pilgrims, spurred our nation's founders, or inspired generations of U.S. civil rights activists to fight, is in all of those immigrants today who seek to be here.

Juneteenth - Freedom Day, Emancipation Day

Juneteenth, also known as Emancipation Day, or Freedom Day, is a day to celebrate freedom, not just for black Americans, but for all Americans. Juneteenth was originally created to commemorate

the days of June 18 and 19 in 1865, when slaves in Galveston, TX, first learned that the American Civil War was over and the Union had prevailed, which meant that they had received their long awaited liberation. At that

time, it was a day of celebration for the emancipation of the slaves. It is highly unlikely that in 1865, white Texans would have joined in the festivities of singing, dancing, and feasting with the former slaves.

As could have easily been expected, the majority of former Confederates after the war hated the simple spectacle of former slaves dancing in the streets, let alone the more radical changes in their lifestyles and social status. Yet on June 18, 1865, over two months after Lee’s surrender at Appomatox, U.S. Army General Gordon Granger marched 2,000 Union soldiers into Galveston to secure the state and oversee emancipation procedures. Then, on June 19, 1865, while standing on the balcony of Galveston’s Ashton Villa, Union Army General Granger read the basic contents of “General Order No. 3” that represented the practical implementation of Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation: “The people of Texas are informed that, in accordance with a proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free. This involves an absolute equality of personal rights and rights of property between former masters and slaves, and the connection heretofore existing between them becomes that between employer and hired labor. The freedmen are advised to remain quietly at their present homes and

work for wages. They are informed that they will not be allowed to collect at military posts and that they will not be supported in idleness either there or elsewhere.” This decree had to be backed up by the 2,000 federal troops due to the staunch resistance from the former Confederates in Texas. In reality, the enforcement of the emancipation of the slaves by federal troops was necessary throughout the South. Ultimately the Union Army established martial law in all of the former Confederate states. As the words of “General Order No. 3” sank in, both local blacks and whites may have been stunned in disbelief. For the former slaves, the disbelief faded as genuine expressions of joy and jubilation overwhelmed those who were present. The freshness of freedom demanded immediate response. The blacks in Galveston did not need a political discourse to instruct them on the significance of that moment in history as they sang and danced with joy. They did not need a history lesson to instruct them on the fundamental change (Continued on pg. 4)

Juneteenth (Continued from pg. 3) that had just occurred in the United States of America. On that day, for those former slaves in Galveston, for the people who had been in bondage for their entire lives, all of their previous suffering became history as people who were once owned as property were told they were free by the U.S. Army’s General Order number 3. The reality of celebration suspended the practical considerations of worrying about the legal fine points and logistical implications. However, just as emancipation created radical changes in the previous stranglehold of white dominion in the South, the former slaves had to deal with such radical changes as well. Unfortunately, the overriding change was massive destruction; all other changes that occurred were the outcome of the most destructive and deadliest war in the history of the United States. Emancipation came at an extraordinarily high cost, and it needed the U.S. Army to enforce it. It’s been said that in the American south, history isn’t dead, and it is hardly even history. This part of American history is difficult to come to grips with. It still has the power to stir up strong emotions, even 150 years later. The bitter fruit of our slave history makes it harder to see the triumphs over oppression and forget the incredible moments of success and joy on the path to freedom. We hear Jeremiah Wright shouting “God damn America,” and forget this incredible moment in time, when white and black soldiers from the Army of the Republic defeated the Confederate Army to end the brutality of slavery. The victory over slavery was as powerful and significant to who we are as Americans as the institution of slavery had ever been. The freed slaves in Galveston needed no permission from their former masters as they danced and sang in this precious moment of realized liberation and genuine freedom. Complete equality was still more than a century away, and we still harvest the bitter fruit of inequality and hatred that were sowed by our ancestors. But freedom was so precious that those former slaves began to sing and dance in a way they had never been able to dance before. Those who have

never known bondage or real enslavement can hardly comprehend the feelings of those who had just been freed. These people must have been overwhelmed with emotions on one hand, and on the other hand, the concept of freedom may have been unbelievable. However, Mr. Lincoln and the Union Army had accomplished what certainly had seemed almost impossible at the outset of the Civil War. Juneteenth, or Emancipation Day, or Freedom Day deserves a more substantial place in the nation’s history. It should be a day in which all Americans should celebrate their freedom. It should be a day in which all Americans could reflect on the nation’s true origins once again. Definitely, the war was the most devastating war America engaged in, but as Lincoln could comprehend it, the United States was either the Land of the Free or it was not after the Civil War, when all the smoke had cleared and the dust had settled, America became just a bit closer to the dream of many of the founding fathers. Mr. Lincoln saw that and he also saw that the very survival of a government intent on such a dream, could ensure eventual freedom for all people. So be it!

Rebuilding our Community By Dr. Andrew Calhoun, Ed.D. Special for the Milwaukee Times

Pushing back As a nation that is becoming more diverse each day, it is becoming apparent that some people are having a difficult time accepting the new reality. The 2010 Census Report as well as the future growth and projections of the US population are revealing what others have known all along…change is here. However, the greatest challenge for America in the 21st Century is how to handle this major paradigm shift. Along with this change, there have been increases in the number of power moves or grabs within many local, state and national legislative bodies. These activities include shifts in polices, modifying rules, redistricting, reviewing residency requirements, evaluating civil liberties, restricting voting opportunities, and using filibusters to block needed reform. One needs a score card, just to keep up. It is amazing how many critical decisions have been made with little to no input from affected communities and residents. They just want residents to go along with a plan; decisions have been made; and you need to just get over it. It will be “OK” in the end…you will see. They do not like opposition

or push back and try to avoid it at all cost. In fact, a lot of people don’t take criticism of any kind too well, especially in open forums, town halls and special hearings. On the other hand, residents who do participate in the process and voice their support or concerns about an issue are inspiring. Standing up for what is right is difficult for the average person and especially when the stakes are high. However, in order for change to happen, someone must be willing to do the right thing and speak their conscience regardless of the unpleasant consequences that may sometimes follow. The risk of going into the spotlight, the chance to share one’s views is at times one of

the missing components in our great democracy. President Abraham Lincoln once stated…“the probability that we may fail in the struggle ought not to deter us from the support of a cause we believe to be just.” My mother told me once that… “if you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.” And perhaps that is where we are today… too many people are in the kitchen… “Who don’t like who's coming to dinner, the menu and… who can’t cook!” For feedback you can contact Dr. Calhoun at email: andrewiiicalhoun@gmail.com, Facebook, twitter: AC53, http://whatdoesitlooklike.blogspot.com/ or 414-571-5015.

The nation should celebrate Juneteenth By Heber Taylor For several years, The Galveston County Daily News has marked June 19 by asking the president to declare Juneteenth a national day of observance. Here’s our pitch. We are not asking for a national holiday, meaning a paid day off. We’re asking for a day of observance, similar to Flag Day. On such days, Americans are urged to think about something important to us all. Juneteenth began in Galveston, but it is not a local story. Juneteenth marks the day slavery ended in the United States. It was the day slaves in Texas learned they were free. Because of geography and the slow communications of the day, the slaves in Texas were the last. The independence we celebrate on the Fourth of July promised freedom to all in 1776. But the promise wasn’t fulfilled for African-Americans.

The Milwaukee Times Weekly Newspaper On Jan. 1, 1863, the Emancipation Proclamation went into effect. But it was meaningless until the Civil War ended. The fighting ended in Virginia in April 1865. Gradually, slaves in the last remaining parts of the Confederacy were freed. Texas, which was then the frontier, was the very last state to get the word. In Galveston and in Texas, we celebrate the end of slavery on this day. We’re not alone. The story of Juneteenth already is important to millions of Americans. Think of it: The story of the end of slavery in the land of the free. Is there a better story than that? Juneteenth really ought to be on the national calendar.

National Health Month: National HIV Testing Day June 27 (Week 5) Each year, on June 27, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), AIDS.gov, and other national and local entities across the country organize National HIV Testing Day. This unique initiative sends the message, “Take the Test, Take Control,” to those at risk from HIV. National HIV Testing Day was launched in 1995 by the National Association of People with AIDS in response to the growing number of HIV infections in communities of color and other heavily impacted communities. HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus. It’s similar to other viruses, such as those that cause colds and the flu, with one important difference — the human body cannot get

rid of HIV. That means if you get HIV, you get it for life. Nearly 1.2 million people are living with HIV in the U.S., and almost 1 in 5 doesn’t know they are infected. HIV testing is a critical first step in taking control and responsibility over one’s health. Three reasons to get an HIV test 1. Finding out early can help you live a longer, healthier life. If you’re HIV-positive, it means that the virus is inside you — even though you may not feel sick. And that’s why it is good to find out early. There are treatments now that are available to you that can keep you healthy. You can find support, so that you stay connected to care. 2. If you know, you can look out for yourself — and the people you love. The earlier you know, the more you can

• Speak out against the stigma, homophobia, racism, and other forms of discrimination associated with HIV and AIDS. • Donate time to HIV and AIDS organizations that work in African American communities. Article Source: http:// hivtest.cdc.gov. do. Knowing early allows you to help yourself. And it may help you to be there for the people you love. Also, studies have shown that when people find out they have HIV, they are more likely to take steps to protect their health and that of their partners. 3. It’s easy. It’s free, fast, and confidential. Many clinics and testing locations offer free HIV tests. You can even

get confidential or anonymous HIV tests. What can you do? • Educate yourself, friends and family about HIV and AIDS and what you can do to protect yourself. • Get tested for HIV. To find a testing site near you, call 1-800-CDC-INFO (232-4636), or on your cell phone, text your ZIP code to KNOW IT (566948).

Talking Health with Dr. Carter

By Dr. Lester Carter Owner, Carter Drug Store

Fat belly or flat belly, you choose (part 1) Fat belly or flat belly? Believe it or not, now you actually do have a choice. Put aside your reasons for your tummy: runs in the family, baby weight, no will power, no budget for liposuction, or (my personal favorite) "getting older". Instead, be unreasonable - and go for it! Let the Flat Belly Diet be your guide. In the new book from Rodale Press, Prevention editor-in-chief Liz Vaccariello and co-writer Cynthia Sass, MPH, RD, give us a breakthrough 32 day plan for flattening our bellies. And, they promise, "Not a single crunch required." Registered dietician Cynthia Sass has developed a belly-shrinking eating plan using the latest research. A dozen individuals tested the plan (including one man). The winner (one of the women) lost 15 pounds during the 32 initial days of the plan. There is plenty of food and it is healthy, tasty, and satisfying. Follow the rules - and you'll never be hungry. In addition, the authors have included helpful mental tricks, tips, and strategies, giving us the

means to satisfy our minds as well as our bodies. Intrigued? Read onâ&#x20AC;Ś The basic flat belly plan The way to a flat belly begins with "The Four-Day AntiBloat Jumpstart". This is followed by "The Four Week Plan", for a total of 32 days. Throughout the program, four meals are eaten each day. There is a grocery list for the first four days and basically no food preparation. (Couldn't be easier.) For example, every day starts with a breakfast of cereal, milk, sunflower seeds, and fruit. During the jumpstart days, the meals equal

1200 calories daily. (More later.) During the following 28 days, a number of "QuickAndEasy" meals are provided. They are equal to 1600 calories a day and they really are quick and easy. (One of my favorites is the Boca Burger lunch.) If you want to cook, 80 special recipes are included. Lastly, there are Three Golden Rules to eating. 1. Eat four meals daily, 400 calories per meal. 2. Don't go more than 4 hours without food. 3. Eat MUFAs (monounsaturated fatty acids) with every meal.

It works. Now learn why .... All our fat doesn't meet the eye Two kinds of fat make up our bellies: Fat we can see and fat we can't see. The fat we can see is subcutaneous fat. This is the fat which is just beneath (sub) our skin (cutaneous). This fat is all over our bodies. There is even a little on the bottoms of our feet. We may complain that we have too much, but some subcutaneous fat is necessary to our health. For one thing, it regulates our body temperature. Plus, it offers some protection against impact (bumping into things). The second type of fat is visceral fat, sometimes called "hidden fat". Although a little of this fat is needed to cushion our inner organs, because it lies so close to our heart and liver, too much is dangerous to our health. And, it's difficult to get rid of. In fact, even skinny people can have deadly amounts of visceral fat. Why deadly? An excess of this kind of body fat increas-

es our risk of disease, including heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and Alzheimer's. In a Danish study, researchers showed that visceral fat may have a greater impact on the heart health of older women than overall obesity. Visceral fat is also indicated in high blood pressure, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and inflammation. Fat is living tissue, and visceral fat secretes precursors to a chemical leading to inflammation. Inflammation is highly associated with the development of every chronic disease. No wonder Vaccariello and Sass call it "vicious fat." What's the ultimate downside for us? We can diet like crazy, exercise regularly, look mahvelous, and still maintain a risky amount of visceral fat. The Flat Belly Diet gals advise us that the only way to decrease both subcutaneous fat and visceral fat is to Eat The Right FAT.

Your stroke risk can drop with seven lifestyle changes Controlling blood pressure is most important, large U.S. study found

By Robert Preidt Certain lifestyle changes could greatly reduce your stroke risk, according to a new study. Researchers calculated stroke risk among nearly 23,000 black and white Americans aged 45 and older. Their risk was assessed using the American Heart Association's Life's Simple

7 health factors: be active, control cholesterol, eat a healthy diet, manage blood pressure, maintain a healthy weight, control blood sugar and don't smoke. During five years of follow-up, 432 strokes occurred among the participants. All seven factors played an important role in predicting stroke risk, but blood pressure was the most important,

Accepting applications Wausau: classes begin in July; Summit: classes begin in September

according to the study, which was published June 6 in the journal Stroke. "Compared to those with poor blood pressure status, those who were ideal had a 60 percent lower risk of future stroke," study senior author Dr. Mary Cushman, a professor of medicine at the University of Vermont in Burlington, said in a journal news release. Cushman and her colleagues also found that people who didn't smoke or quit smoking more than a year before the start of the study had a 40 percent lower stroke risk. For the study, the researchers categorized the participants' Life's Simple 7 scores as inadequate (zero to four points), average (five to nine points) or optimum (10 to 14 points). Every one-point in-

crease was associated with an 8 percent lower stroke risk. People with optimum scores had a 48 percent lower risk than those with inadequate scores, and those with average scores had a 27 percent lower risk. Overall, blacks had lower scores than whites, but the association between scores and stroke risk was similar for blacks and whites. "This highlights the critical importance of improving these health factors since blacks have nearly twice the stroke mortality rates as whites," Cushman said. Each year, about 795,000 people in the United States have a stroke, which is the No. 4 killer and a leading cause of long-term disability in the country, according to the American Heart Association.

That, however, isn’t clear at this point, she added. Burghardt advises keeping these medications out of the reach of young children, particularly those under 5 who are at the greatest risk. The greatest risk for teen misuse is from narcotic painkillers, Burghardt said, mostly intended for recreational use or to attempt suicide. The report was published in the June 3 online edition of Pediatrics. “What we see a lot is open prescription bottles from TickeT price parents or grandparents, and ingestion of diabetic and per other drugs by kids,” said Dr. person Vincenzo Maniaci, a pediatric emergency medicine doctor at Miami Children’s Hospital. “Kids are going to get into everything.” Medications need to be kept high up, in locked boxes, so children can’t get at them, Maniaci said. Medications should not be kept on countertops, in purses or on nightstands. If a parent suspects a child had ingested a prescription medication, the first step is to call poison control, Maniaci said. To try to get a handle on the extent of the problem,

a dozen young children have been unintentionally poisoned with the drug. About half of the cases resulted from kids eating marijuana-laced cookies, brownies, sodas or candy. In many cases, the marijuana came from their grandparents’ stash, the investigators said. But doctors aren’t familiar with marijuana poisoning in children, so unless the parents are forthcoming it can take time and tests to diagnose the problem, the Colorado researchers explained. Symptoms of marijuana poisoning in children include sleepiness and balance problems while walking.

Personal Finance & Business

By Jason Alderman Director of Visa’s financial education programs

What to do when a loved one dies Whether it's expected or accidental, the death of a loved one can shake you to the core. The last thing you want is to have to interrupt grieving to deal with mundane tasks, but unfortunately there are many actions that must be done on behalf of the deceased. Some must be taken immediately, while with others you can take your time and reflect on the best path to follow. Here's a checklist: • If the death occurs under hospital or hospice watch, they will notify the proper authorities and help you make arrangements with the coroner's office for transport of the remains. If it happens at home, call local police or 911 for assistance. If he or she was an organ donor, you'll need to act quickly. • Reach out for help in making arrangements and locat-

ing key documents. Split up such tasks as contacting others who will want to know, taking care of pets, collecting mail and safeguarding the deceased's home if it's now vacant. • Look for a will or other document that spells out the deceased's burial or cremation wishes – many people make funeral arrangements in advance, even paying ahead of time. The funeral home can guide you through the paperwork process, such as placing an obituary and ordering death certificates. • Hopefully, the deceased prepared a will that names an executor to oversee the disposition of his or her estate; otherwise, the court will have to appoint one. In sorting through their files, also look for: a trust; insurance policies; bank, credit card, mortgage and loan accounts;

safe deposit box key; contact information for lawyer, doctor, accountant or other professional advisors; and passwords to computer and other accounts. • Within the first few days, start notifying organizations with which the deceased had business or financial arrangements. In most cases you'll be required to submit a certified copy of the death certificate, so be sure to order ample copies. You'll need to contact: • Current or former employers for information about possible final wages, accrued vacation, retirement,

life insurance or other death benefits. • Social Security Administration. If they were receiving Social Security benefits, you'll need to stop payment right away. Funeral homes often do this, but be sure to ask. •Once you've notified Social Security, they will contact Medicare to cancel benefits. However, if they were enrolled in a Medicare Prescription or Advantage Plan or had a Medigap policy, contact each to cancel coverage. • Veteran's Administration. Veterans, their immediate family members and certain others may be entitled to burial at a national cemetery. •Forward their mail to a secure address so you don't miss important correspondence. • Cancel their driver's license to avoid identity fraud.

• Contact banks, credit unions, credit card issuers and other lenders to close accounts – or if you are a surviving spouse, to convert accounts to your name only. • If they had a safe deposit box and you don't have the key, ask what documentation you need to gain access. • Insurance companies, to cancel auto and homeowner's policies; however, consider keeping them activated until assets are sold, in case of theft or damage. • Close email accounts. • Cancel magazine subscriptions and utilities. Finally, the executor will have to deal with such issues as locating beneficiaries, distributing inherited property, filing final tax returns, and settling outstanding debts. You'd be wise to work with an attorney who specializes in probate issues.
