Being good at what you do = success

Bezelee Martin Bezelee Martin, 83, an entrepreneur since the age of 14, knows well the formula for becoming a successful businessman.

Martin spoke to a class of students Tuesday, April 9, 2013 at Vincent High School who are participants with Junior Achievement, a nonprofit organization, which teaches financial literacy, work readiness and entrepreneurial skills to young people, starting at the K-5 grade level.

Martin is no stranger to business in the Milwaukee community. He founded the Lena’s Food Store business (named after his wife of 53 years) in 1965; and is currently its president and CEO. According to Martin, he has “never looked back.”

Ald. Murphy: 'They're kicking us when we’re down' By: Raina J. Johnson Special to the Milwaukee Times On April 8, 2013, Mayor Tom Barrett along with the Milwaukee Brotherhood of Firefighters and several elected officials from city government, including the majority of the Common Council members, gathered at city hall to hold a press conference voicing their concerns over Governor Walker’s proposal to lift residency requirements statewide for some city workers.

“We are all here today for the same purpose and that is to ask the state legislature specifically the Joint Finance Committee – to remove from the budget that has been presented to them by Governor Walker, a provision that has no reason to be in the budget,” Mayor Barrett said to the audience. “The provision that we are referring to is of course is the provision that prohibits local governments from instituting residency requirements.

Lifting city residency requirement, Derek Williams case evoke lively discussion at Pastors United meeting

“The idea,” Martin said: “Don’t give up because you will create the foundation for someone else to make it. Stay focused, you will succeed. Don’t ever give up."

Imparting some of the knowledge he’s learned while in business, Martin told his audience of budding entrepreneurs one ingredient to being successful requires one to “enjoy doing what they do and doing it well, and put forth the effort and time.”

Describing how he became successful in the grocery business, Martin said his acquaintances decried his wanting to establish a business in close proximity to a large grocery chain store.

“People said I was crazy,” Martin acknowledged. And he went on to offer his rationale for doing so. He said he wasn’t afraid to do so because he was going to do his very best.

The Pastors United meeting at Jerusalem Missionary Baptist Church last Thursday attracted more than 30 individual, including pastors, laymen and business owners. The group is in the organizing stages and very soon will write a comprehensive plan dealing with critical issues plaguing Milwaukee's African American community.

By: Raina J. Johnson Special to the Milwaukee Times In Milwaukee recently there’s been a strong backlash when it comes to authority figures that are sworn to protect and serve, and the role government should have in our community; specifically speaking about the Derek Williams case and Governor

Scott Walker’s proposal to lift the current residency requirement rule that says some city workers need to live in the cities that they serve in.

Pastors United is a group that was recently formed to develop a strategic plan to help solve some of these concerns that pastors, churches and laypersons have in Milwaukee. At an im-

passioned meeting last week, individuals present were given the opportunity to voice their concerns. This spirited conversation came just days before Mayor Barrett and the Milwaukee Brotherhood of Firefighters held a press conference at City Hall to discuss their concerns about the Governor’s proposal.

At the Pastors United

meeting, there was an intense and robust conversation regarding the aforementioned concerns, involving authority and the role of government in our community. Many people, both laypersons and ministry leaders in attendance had an opinion regarding both topics.

National & Local News

Beyond a reasonable doubt By: Raina J. Johnson Special to the Milwaukee Times Just over 6 months ago, the district attorney ordered that an inquest be conducted for the purpose of inquiring into how Derek Williams died while in the custody of the Milwaukee Police Department on July 6, 2011.

The 33-page report released by special prosecutor John Franke on March 29, 2013 stated, "My intent and goals throughout this service as special prosecutor have been to conduct a thorough and objective investigation; to proceed with an inquest that would provide an objective and public review of the evidence, evidence permitting the jury to make informed finings regarding the cause of death and whether there was probable cause to support a criminal charge; and following that inquest to make a reasoned and just decision as to the issuance of charges."

According to the report

Kicking us when we’re down (Continued from pg. 1) “Residency is a condition of employment and an issue of local control – not a budgetary item and to leave it in the budget would be an injustice to the city, we strive to one day see a workforce that mirrors the residents we serve,” Everett Cocroft said.

Common Council President Hines said that the residency requirement has not been harmful or detrimental to the city. “It’s simply a condition of employment; we find it very offensive that the state would put this in the budget.” He went on to dis-

the cause of Williams' death has some skepticism surrounding it.

"There was significant disagreement among the four experts who testified at the inquest as to whether a sickle cell crisis was the probable cause of death or whether that possibility was less than probable, although no alter native cause of death was ever identified," the report said. The three officers involved in the case will not be charged in the death of Williams. cuss that lifting the requirement would have an economic impact on the city, but Alderman Michael Murphy, who is also the chair of the finance and personnel committees, spoke in much more detail about the economic impact to Milwaukee.

“Let’s be very clear; the Governor’s intended goal is creating 250,000 jobs to help this state grow. This policy doesn’t create one single job; in fact it does the adverse.

City of Milwaukee, unfortunately due to the foreclosure crisis, has lost $5-billion in value over the last four years, that’s 70 percent of our assessed value of our city.

This foreclosure crisis has crippled us in many ways, enacting this legislation when the city is down – kicking us when we’re down –is simply

The report goes on to say, "This is not a crime that can rest on a finding of criminal negligence or a finding of 'what should have been done.'

It is not a crime that can rest solely on the compelling video of Williams pleading for help, an image the officers almost certainly did not see. It is a crime that requires a jury to find, beyond a reasonable doubt, that an officer actually believed that medical attention was needed and actually knew that the failure to obtain aid was causing bodily harm."

In the days following the release of the report, some calling themselves members of Occupy Milwaukee protested the decision to not charge the officers involved in the Williams case. Although criminal charges will not be filed against the officers, there is still the possibility of disciplinary actions that the Fire and Police Commission can take and there are two federal investigations that are open.

“Residency is a condition of employment and an issue of local control – not a budgetary item and to leave it in the budget would be an injustice to the city, we strive to one day see a workforce that mirrors the residents we serve,” - Everett Cocroft of the Firefighters unfair and unjust,” Alderman Murphy said.

This argument isn’t just about the numbers and the financial burden that the city of Milwaukee will carry.

Alderman Murphy stressed the “social good of having for example a police officer or fire fighter living in your neighborhood, everyone of us in this city knows the importance of once in a while knowing the fire fighter or police officer down the block

Obama’s budget puts Medicare and Social Security on the chopping block

By Yvette Carnell You had to know it was coming. Just last month White House aide Gene Sperling said on CNN’s "State of the Union" that Obama was “reaching out to Democrats who understand we have to make serious progress on long-term entitlement reform and Republicans who realize that if we had that type of entitlement reform, they’d be willing to have tax reform that raises revenues to lower the deficit.”

In fact, President Obama you can rely on. They are there for us, and they have been there for us and that’s an important economic impact but also the quality of life impact.”

Some also say that there hasn’t been a good honest debate about this issue and that it's really an issue of public safety as well and a political maneuver that Governor Walker is using by sneaking this into the state budget. At the news conference city leaders encouraged residents to call their representatives and other city leaders regarding this topic.

As always, the proof is in the pudding, and in this case the pudding is an Obama budget which proposes to cut Medicare and Social Security.

April 4th was the 45th anniversary of Dr. King’s assassination

By A. Peter Bailey April 4, 2013 was the 45th anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. It always puzzles me why so many of those who so vocally celebrate Dr. King’s birthday, let the historic day of assassination go by so quietly.

I am cynical enough to believe that their quietness is another payment for having President Reagan sign a bill making his birthday a national holiday.

I am using this opportunity not only to remember April 4 as the day when the civil rights movement was, for all practical purposes, shattered.

But I am also using this opportunity to remember the 33 Blacks and seven Whites murdered by white supremacist/racist terrorists between May 7, 1955 and April 4, 1968.

They are: George Lee,

A. Peter Bailey Lamar Smith, Emmett Till, Mack Charles Parker, Herbert Lee, Medgar Evers, Roman Duckworth, Louis Allen, Paul Gulhard, Rev. Bruce Klunders, Henry Hezekiah Dee, Charles Eddie Moore, James Chaney, Andrew Goodman, Michael Schwerner, Vernon Dahmer, Ben Chester White, Wharlest Jackson and Benjamin Brown were murdered in Mississippi.

Also, Willie Edmonds, William Louis Moore, Addie Mae Collins, Denise McNair, Carole Robertson, Cynthia Wesley, Virgil Lamar Ware, Jimmie Lee Jackson, Rev. James Reeb, Viola Gregg Liuozzo, Willie Wallace Brewster, Jonathan Daniels and Samuel Younge Jr. in Alabama.

Also, Earl Reese in Texas, Lemeul Penn in Georgia, O’Neal Moore and Clarence Tiggs in Louisiana; and Samuel Hammond, Jr., Delano Middleton and Henry Smith in South Carolina.

Nine of the blacks slain were between 11 and 19 years of age. All these names are documented on the walls of the Civil Rights Memorial in Montgomery, AL. When those black people who get some big time job or appointment or other recognition begin thanking people for their good fortune, they almost never take the time to

thank those listed above and the many others who were brutalized, often by those who were supposed to be enforcing the law. They also lost their jobs and saw their homes and places of business firebombed by white supremacist/racist terrorists.

Instead of giving thanks to the warriors for equal rights, equal justice, and equal opportunity, too many of those

who benefit from their sacrifices go before mostly white audiences and give the impression that they got their news-making job or appointment because they prayed and worked hard. They often leave the impression that things in this country changed because the whites voluntarily decided that “We haven’t been doing right to our black citizens. Now we are going to repent and do the right thing.”

That delusional position is a bald-faced falsification of history and a supreme insult to those who put their lives on the line in the late 1950's and 1960's.

April 4 is an important day in our history and should be a day to remember and pay tribute to Dr. King and the other warriors for daring to confront what can only be described as terrorism in several of the former Confederate states.

ly in the system, but there are no repercussions,” said Rev. Greg Lewis. “Being silent affects our credibility, we need to make a conscious decision to not continue to let these things happen to our people,” Lewis added. That’s why Pastors United meets to come up with an agenda and a strategy to combat these concerns; they are aware that they can’t fix everything.

The Derek Williams case is a recent reminder in Milwaukee of the concerns with MPD and the perceived abuse of power that comes from other levels of government, too. The conversation shifted from the Williams case to the proposal from Governor Walker to lift the residency requirement of some city employees.

“The issue is can you live out of the city and work in the city?,” said Rev. Lewis.

Opponents of the Governor’s proposal suggest that if passed, the new rules will affect the quality of services being provided to citizens in Milwaukee, services such as police and fire response time.

A strong proponent of the residency requirement is Mike Wilder, director of the African-American Roundtable at Citizen Action of Wisconsin, in a phone interview with the Milwaukee Times,

he said, “So with the proposal you’re saying that our community is good enough to work in but not to live in?

If they lift residency requirements Milwaukee will end up like Detroit.” More than a decade ago, the city of Detroit lifted its residency requirement, making the suburbs more of an attractive place to live for people, creating a “run-down” city. Those that support lifting the residency requirement say that the response times of emergency responders will not impact the services received from Milwaukee citizens. Mayor Barrett disagrees with Governor Walker on this issue and believes that residency requirements statewide should not be a part of the Executive Budget.

The Williams case and the residency requirement are just two issues that were brought up at the meeting; the views that were expressed at the Pastors United meeting and just around the community have resonated with many people and Pastors United is working to set a course of action, to include a variety of topics that impact the community; the next meeting is scheduled for Thursday April 11, 2013 at 10:00 a.m. at 2505 W. Cornell Street in Milwaukee.

Rebuilding our Community

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

Bridge to somewhere Each day many of us take for granted the crossing of a bridge in our daily commute.

Many people do not realize the tremendous effort that goes into planning, designing and constructing a bridge.

Of course, the bigger the bridge, the more it takes.

Our nation is full of bridges; each was designed and constructed for a specific purpose. A few of them have become internationally famous, noted for its engineering achievement and/ or has a unique place in history. In essence a bridge is a structure built to carrying a road, path, railroad, or canal across a river, ravine, road or other obstacle. Its central purpose is to provide an easy way to cross from one place to another, saving time, cost and provide easy access to the other side. In addition, a bridge provides a way to transport commerce, deliver public services and connect communities.

Benchmarks Some bridges in our nation are historical landmarks and considered national treasures. In New York City there is the Brooklyn Bridge.

It is the oldest expansion bridge in the country and connects the boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn by spanning the East River. The Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco spans the opening of the bay on the Pacific Ocean and links it to Marin County. This bridge is recognized as a symbol of the city and has been declared as one of the wonders of the modern world.

Other bridges have become known as enduring symbols of peaceful protest.

harmed, disenfranchised, taken for granted, but who also need their voices to be heard and their concerns addressed in positive ways.

Milwaukee, like most of urban America, is in need of some social bridge work.

Too many bridges have fallen down, been underutilized, become obsolete or are headed nowhere. Some new bridges need to be built, while some old bridges need to be torn down; and yet others need a long term maintenance plan.

As communities, cities, and the world continue to grow and become more diverse with each passing day, there

is a tremendous need to build stronger bridges that provide opportunities for greater understanding, tolerance and acceptance.

Bridges regardless of their design, looks and length, were built to connect people, cities and communities. A bridge does come in handy, especially when you need one. John Burroughs, (18371921), a highly regarded American naturalist and essayist in the U.S. conservation movement, once stated that “For anything worth having one must pay the price; and the price is always work, patience, love, self-sac-

rifice - no paper currency, no promises to pay, but the gold of real service.” So I say…

“Let’s make a down payment and build some bridges that head somewhere and that will last.”

The State of Equality and Justice in America By: Dr. E. Faye Williams, Esq

No one can change the change

Dr. Andrew Calhoun The Edmund Pettus Bridge, which carries U.S. Highway 80 across the Alabama River in Selma, Alabama was the site of the conflict known as Bloody Sunday on March 7, 1965. This was when armed officers attacked peaceful civil rights demonstrators attempting to march on the state capital of Montgomery. In August 1967, the James E. Groppi Unity Bridge (formally 16th Street Viaduct) was the site where Father James Groppi, a Catholic priest along with the NAACP Youth Council marched across the bridge to protest housing discrimination in Milwaukee.

Pathways to the future A bridge is also a term that is used as a metaphor to signal a need to connect with people in an effort to resolve issues or to gain support for new initiatives. It is the central concept in a process to reach out to people, to gain an understanding, respect differences and to build trust. It is to dialog with people who have been

The state of equality and justice in America is shameful–especially since the election of President Barack Obama. Unlike many of my friends who think America is going to hell in a hand basket, and have given up thinking things will get better for those who’ve been marginalized for so long, I still have hope for a better day.

When Barack Obama was running for President of the United States, a close friend told me, “Mark my word.

When Senator Obama is elected, some people will go absolutely crazy, and after he’s re-elected, they will go mad!” His rationale was that the average White person had never had the opportunity to wake up every morning and see a brilliant Black man on television who was the most powerful man in the world! Unless they were wed to FOX News and the O’Reilly, Hannity, Beck, and Von Sustern programs, they would learn so much about us–so many good things they had refused to acknowledge before.

So many of our people are brilliant in what they do, but never had a fair chance to be seen in a positive light in their daily newspapers or on mainstream television or heard on major radio stations. Now, here we are after the Obama victories. He’s there every single day! The madness really swung into high gear with the Tea Party, Michelle Bachman, Sarah Palin, Senator Ted Cruz and a whole lot of others. Some I didn’t mention because they were already on the list of what most of us have come to know as the “crazies,” such as Rush Limbaugh and his horrible ilk.

Black women like our First Lady, Michelle Obama, had not often been seen on the evening news, except when

Dr. E. Faye Williams, Esq. they were there crying over a son or daughter who’d been shot or accused of being involved in some kind of wrongdoing. Now, here she was–beautiful, smart, Mom in Chief, presiding over social events for world leaders and their first ladies. She was

dealing with real American challenges, such as military families and childhood obesity. She was out making speeches and inspiring women of all backgrounds.

With people who could not stand all these positive scenes and unbelievable accomplishments, insanity set in, and instead of grinning and bearing the strides America was making, they began trying to set us back to what they called “the good ole days”. Some make every effort to send Black people to the back of the bus, send immigrants of color back to from wherever they had come, send gay people back into the closet, and force women to go back to the kitchen! They began talking about taking back their country as though they didn’t take (Continued on pg. 19)

The Counseling Corner

By Rev. Judith T. Lester, B.Min. M.Th

How to study the Bible: Christian journaling (Week 2) Journaling is a spiritual discipline where one writes down prayer requests, answered prayers, thoughts, notes, and insights taken during personal devotional time with God before and after Bible study. Writing down one’s thoughts allows an opportunity to think deeper and clearer and draw one closer to God. If you have never engaged in journaling, dedicate a notebook today to begin recording your spiritual journey. This week, compliments of the article entitled "Christian Journaling 101: It’s A Piece of Cake" at www. squidoo.com, we will be giving insight as to journaling and its spiritual benefits.

First, Christian journaling requires prayer. Pray before you start journaling. Ask God to reveal His presence and to speak to you. Pray in your

journal. Write down prayer requests, answered prayer requests, praises and confessions. Tell God how amazing He is. Tell God what you are struggling with and how you need Him. By writing these things down, you can come back to it in the future and see how God has worked in your life. It also allows you to simply be more aware of God’s works in your life. Pray after you’re done journaling.

Thank God for what He has taught you through journaling, and ask God to continue to teach you throughout the day.

Secondly, write, write, write! Write your prayer requests. Write your praises.

Write your confessions.

Write your goals. Write your current life situation. Write the reference of the passages that you have read. Jot down a short summary of it and then start writing your response to it. If you have

that you use for prayer requests, praises, confessions, notes and thoughts. This will help organize your thoughts and will prove to be very beneficial when you go back to read past entries.

questions, write them down.

If you don’t understand, make a point of it and write it down. If you like a particular section, jot that down too.

This is your chance to make some in-depth thinking and document your thoughts.

Really take in what you have read, think about it and pray about it, and then write on it.

This will help you come up with things you have never

Growing

up, Dawn Shelton-Williams says the value of a solid work ethic and compassionate heart were instilled within her by her parents. As an adult, she has pursued a career focused on mental health and working to improve dynamics within families throughout the city.

Dawn, a state - licensed independent clinical social worker, is currently employed by Aurora Family Service, where she has worked in a variety of capacities since 2002. Her responsibilities include management of three visitation care programs through the organization, including one devoted to healthy families, another based on a wraparound concept, and a third centered on family enrichment.

“You always give back to your community. It’s very important,” Dawn says.

In the past year, Dawn and other organizers have been working to ensure interconception care is available to mothers who have experienced adverse birth outcomes. The end goal, she says, is to lengthen the period of time between delivery and a woman’s next pregnancy to improve health

and subsequent delivery outcomes.

Dawn’s career path began when she served at a residential treatment facility with St. Aemilian-Lakeside, a human services agency that provides family-centered care. She later was a psychotherapist and continues that role on a part-time basis. Dawn also has been involved with the Wisconsin Bureau of Milwaukee Child Welfare and Milwaukee County’s Child Protective Services division.

Pick ‘n Save & Roundy’s Foundation donate nearly $56k in food and cash to Muskego, Menomonee Falls and Milwaukee area food pantries

The five-day, 14 city, bi-annual Roundy’s Foundation on Feeding Families Tour was held in Muskego, Menomonee Falls and Milwaukee on Tuesday, April 9. The foundation made donations to six local food pantries. During the tour, the Roundy’s Foundation also donated more than $258,000 in food and money to 60 food pantries throughout Wisconsin, Minnesota and Illinois. Each pantry also received a dona-

tion of food and money that is valued at over $4,300. Food pantries receiving donations in the Milwaukee area were: Sherman Park Community Ministries Food Pantry, First Lutheran Church Food Pantry, Tosa Community Food Pantry, Northwest Baptist Church Emergency Food Pantry, Emmaus Lutheran Church Food Pantry, and All Peoples Church Food Pantry.

Near the end of his halfhour presentation, Martin told a joke about two frogs who fell into a bucket of milk and couldn’t get out because they had no foundation to stand on.

While in the bucket, one frog kept peddling and gave up. The frog who gave up provided the foundation for the other frog to jump onto a foundation.

Bezelee Martin, 83, a businessman since the age of 14, and founder, president and CEO of Lena's Food stores in Milwaukee, spoke at Vincent High School Tuesday, April 9, 2013 to a group of Junior Achievement students. Next Thursday, April 18, 2013, Martin and three other honorees will be inducted into the Wisconsin Business Hall of Fame during an afternoon ceremony, which celebrates business and entrepreneurship at the Pfister Hotel. Also pictured with Mr. Martin is his son (seated) Greg Martin, vice president of Lena's Food Market.

"I went into the grocery business with the mindset that no one was going to beat me and I wasn’t afraid,” Martin confessed, adding, “God didn’t give my competition any more sense than I had. Just because they were larger didn’t mean they had more sense than me.”

Kenya Quezaire What are your plans after high school?

My plans after high school will be to attend MATC for my Associates Degree in Criminal Justice. I don’t know what specific field yet but I know it’s going to be where I am helping people and getting to know and understanding their problems. I really think there are people out in this world who just need someone to talk to and that’s going to tell them that everything’s going to be alright. I really can’t wait till I graduate from high school this June. I’m really looking forward to it. Those are my plans after I graduate from high school.

Violence/Gang Violence There’s a lot of violence going around in Milwaukee.

This past year I lost my oldest nephew Javon Whiteside to gun violence. He was only 18 years of age when he lost his life. I really think no human beings should have to go through that. I don’t understand how somebody takes a life for no reason not knowing they’re just hurting themself and throwing their life away for stupidity. People need to come together as one and work together to help fix this problem that’s killing our young teens and stop fighting each other for a change. I wish one day I can open up some type of organization that would help keep teens off of the street and get them involved in some activities out of school.

great level of communication, responsibility, respect and an open mind toward each other’s opinions.

On the road to success A group of youth is taking a road trip that may eventually place them on the path to success.

Eight youth from the Social Development Commission’s (SDC) Youth and Family Development program are taking a six-day trip to institutions of higher learning.

The Annual Youth College Tour will stop at colleges and universities in Illinois, Tennessee, Arkansas, Missouri, and Mississippi. Visits will include the campuses at Illinois State, Fisk University, Tennessee State, and Jackson State.

During the stops, the young

women and men will be able to get a feel for the campuses, class and career offerings, as well as get information on the application process and financial aid. The trips in the past have been instrumental in inspiring young people to shoot high for their career and life goals. They have led many participating youth to be admitted to and earn degrees from many excellent colleges and universities.

One past college tour participant, Atiya, is currently a senior at Rufus King High School in Milwaukee. She wrote after taking part in the 2011 SDC College Tour

“With my mom being a single mother…sometimes college seems out of the question, but going on this trip has made my dream of attending college more of a reality.”

Atiya made that dream a reality when she was recently accepted at Marquette University. She plans to attend that school next fall.

To learn more about the many youth programs at SDC including the annual College Tour, go to www. cr-sdc.org/index/Programs-Services/Family-Strengthening/Youth-and-FamilyDevelopment-Program.htm.

Nobody can be guaranteed a perfect relationship, no matter whom the person is involved with. It always seems like it’s impossible to comprehend what builds a good relationship between two people when dating; but if you set standards and refuse to settle for less, things become a lot simpler.

McDonald’s and Jammin’ 98.3 FM hold contest for Teacher Appreciation Week Winner gets trip to 2013 Essence Music Festival in New Orleans Educators throughout southeastern Wisconsin have returned to the classroom after a well-deserved spring break. While it’s easy for many parents and students to say they appreciate their educators, McDonald’s Restaurants of Southeastern Wisconsin is partnering with Jammin’ 98.3 FM radio for an opportunity to show that same sentiment.

The 3rd Annual Teacher Appreciation Contest is designed to recognize the positive impact educators have on students. Whether it’s a math teacher, coach, librarian, or custodian, the only criterion for nominees is that they be employees of an educational institution.

Anyone can nominate their favorite educator by going to www.wjmr.com and clicking on the “Sing the Praises of Your Teacher” section.

From there, nominators can describe why they think their educator is the best in 200 words or less. All nominations must be submitted by Sunday, April 21. All who nominate will be sent a coupon for a free Premium Mc-

Wrap, a new product at McDonald’s.

The winning educator gets a trip for two to the 2013 Essence Music Festival in New Orleans from July 4-7.

Headline performers from this year’s festival include Beyonce, Mary J. Blige and Trey Songz.

Last year’s contest winner was Sherman Dixon, a Riverside High School custodian.

He was nominated by a parent of a special needs student at the school whom he worked with and his award shows that everyone in a school can be considered an educator. A surprise media event, which took place at the school with Ronald McDonald, was held in Dixon’s honor where he was officially announced as the contest winner. Dixon, a former McDonald’s employee, credited hard work to his success, but also the kids he works with every day.

“Without [the kids] I couldn’t be who I am,” he said during an interview with WISN 12 News. “They make me who I am.”

The program is one of many education-related programs that are sponsored by McDonald’s Restaurants of Southeastern Wisconsin. Other school-based programs include multicultural scholarships that award $60,000 to high school seniors, McTeacher’s Night events where

teachers have the opportunity to work behind the counter to raise funds for their schools and Ronald McDonald performances in elementary schools, to name a few.

THE

Talking Health with Dr. Carter

By Dr. Lester Carter Owner, Carter Drug Store

Superfoods: Foods with benefits (part 4)

Hippocrates had it right around 300 B.C. when he advised, "Make thy food thy medicine, and thy medicine thy food." (We're slow learners as a race, aren't we?) We discuss 10 superfoods. Traditionally defined, these foods have exceptional properties.

A grocery list follows the discussion. It features the foods most frequently rated as "super."

Please note that although there is currently an exciting trend toward vegetarianism (no flesh foods), vegan (no foods sourced from animals), and raw food diets, we list foods from both dairy and meat categories.

Tea: What other beverage is so healthy - and inexpensive?

Tea, especially green tea, has been highly praised for its health benefits, which are largely due to its high antioxidant content.

The following information comes from the Harvard Women's Health Watch.

Green tea is the best food source of a group of antioxidants called catechins. In test tubes, catechins are more powerful than vitamins C and E in stopping oxidative damage. They also appear to have other disease fighting properties. Studies have found an association between drinking green tea and a reduced risk for several cancers, including skin, breast, lung, colon, esophageal, and bladder.

Benefits for lovers of green, black, and oolong teas include a lowered risk for heart disease. These teas help block the oxidation of LDL cholesterol, increase HDL, and improve artery function. In addition, a Chinese study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine showed a 46-65 percent

reduction in high blood pressure risk compared with non tea drinkers.

The usual amount is three cups per day.

Allow green tea to steep for 3-5 minutes to bring out the catechins. Decaffeinated, bottled ready-to-drink, and instant teas have less of these compounds.

Whey Protein: Not just for body builders, whey protein is ranked #1 among protein substances for digestibility. That alone is enough to grant it superfood status. Of course whey protein comes from milk, but did you know that it is produced as a co-product of cheese making?

There is a lot of hype surrounding the benefits of whey protein.

For that reason, we reference the Mayo Clinic (MC) site. This prestigious hospital uses a grading system based on scientific studies to evaluate supplements. Here is the criteria for their grading system: A. Strong scientific evidence for this use.

B. Good scientific evidence for this use.

C. Unclear scientific evidence for this use.

Looking at studies involving 32 health conditions, MC awards two "A's" and four "B's." An "A" goes to whey protein, with the statement that it's "an excellent source of protein". The other "A" goes to hydrolyzed whey protein for its "effectiveness in preventing some allergies".

Whey protein is frequently recommended for weight management. MC gives it a "B" as an appetite suppressant, stating that it has been "found to reduce short term food intake and may aid in reducing appetite." On this basis, it also earns a "B" for

facilitating weight loss. The third "B" is for the ability of whey protein to increase muscle mass and muscle strength. And, the last "B" is accorded for the evidence that whey protein may improve some symptoms of diabetes.

There are 26 more conditions currently under study that are graded "C". These are ranked "may be useful".

They include acne, bone density, heart disease risk, reducing dental plaque, eczema in infants, exercise (performance and recovery), and high blood pressure. Learn more about the possible healthy effects of whey protein at www.mayoclinic.cmn/ health/whey-proteinl.

Federal judge issues new ruling on emergency contraception A federal judge has ruled that the emergency contraception drug Plan B OneStep, a.k.a. the "morningafter pill," must be made available over the counter to everyone. The decision, issued Friday, April 5, 2013, overturns a rule that required anyone 16 years old and younger to have a prescription in order to get the pill.

In 2011, despite the Food and Drug Administration's determination that Plan B is safe for all ages, the Department of Health and Human Services decided to block teenagers from buying the drug without a prescription.

President Barack Obama endorsed HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius' decision,

arguing that the government "could not be confident that a 10-year-old or an 11-yearold going into a drugstore should be able—alongside bubble gum or batteries—be able to buy a medication that potentially, if not used properly, could end up having an adverse effect."

But Judge Edward R. Korman of Federal District Court ruled Friday that this was not an acceptable reason to deny access, and that Sebelius' decision "was politically motivated, scientifically unjustified, and contrary to agency precedent."

Nancy Northup, president

of the Center for Reproductive Rights, hailed the ruling.

“Women all over the country will no longer face arbitrary delays and barriers just to get emergency contraception,” she said.

Teva Pharmaceuticals Ltd’s Plan B in 1999 became the first emergency contraceptive available for prescription use in the United States. The company also markets Plan B One-Step, a one-pill version of Plan B. Teva had also petitioned the government to allow sales of Plan B One-Step over the counter without restrictions.

In 2011, the FDA said it had concluded Plan B OneStep could be safely used in

girls of child-bearing age.

But U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, in an unprecedented move, overruled the FDA and said that there was insufficient evidence to support removing the restrictions.

Several days later, the FDA also rejected the petition to lower restrictions on all emergency contraceptives.

In Friday’s ruling, Korman blasted the agencies’ justification for their decisions, calling it “an excuse to deprive the overwhelming majority of women of their rights to obtain contraceptives without unjustified and burdensome restrictions.”

Got asthma? Odds are you have an allergy, too Study found many U.S. adults suffer from both Most American adults with asthma also have an allergy, according to a new study.

Researchers examined data on nearly 2,600 people from the U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and found that 75 percent of adults aged 20 to 40 with asthma, and 65 percent of adults 55 and older with the condition, have at least one allergy.

The findings appeared in the April issue of the journal Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology.

“Allergists have known the prevalence of allergies among asthmatic children is high at 60 percent to 80 percent, but it was thought allergies were not as common in asthmatic adults,” study lead author Dr. Paula Busse said in a journal news release. “These findings are important, and can help lead to proper diagnosis and treatment.”

Although asthma

is more common in children, it affects 3 percent to 7 percent of adults 60 and older.

The actual figure is likely higher, because asthma is often underdiagnosed in older adults, according to the news release.

Currently, 26 million Americans have diagnosed asthma and the number increases every year, according to the American College of Allergy, Asthma

and Immunology. More than 50 million Americans have an allergy, and that number is also climbing.

“Both asthma and allergies can strike at any age, and are serious diseases,” ACAAI president Dr. Richard Weber said in the news release.

Weber said people who think they have symptoms of asthma or an allergy should see an allergist.

Metropolitan Baptist Church Adah Mission Circle presents Pacific Garden Mission The Adah Mission Circle of Metropolitan Missionary Baptist Church, 1345 W. Burleigh Street, is hosting the Pacific Garden Mission Choir on Sunday, April 21, 2013 at 4:00 p.m. Bringing God’s Word in song and oral testimonial service, the program is two to two and one-half hours in length. About Pacific Garden Mission: Since 1877, Pacific Garden Mission has been a refuge. Millions weary of struggling through life’s storms, have come to the “Old Lighthouse” seeking food, shelter, clothing, medical, and dental care. They also came seeking the answer to life’s struggles. They are offered the answer: life through faith in Jesus Christ. Real people…real life stories…stirring, dramatic accounts of hopelessness, and the hope that changes everything. “UNSHACKELED!” the award-winning radio drama from Pacific Garden Mission in Chicago, grips the heart with compelling and relevant stories of transformed lives. Come hear God’s Word shard through Pacific Garden Mission’s choir and ministry.

No one can change the change (Continued from pg. 4) it from the Native Americans and as though immigrants and enslaved people had done nothing to build this country.

Many in the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate tried to block everything President Obama supported, even if they had supported the same things in the past. They were tone deaf to the phrase “Where there is no justice, there will be no peace!” With a President who truly tried to make all levels of government look like America by appointing women, Hispanics, Asians, gays and lesbians, Democrats and Republicans and being totally inclusive of all of us, those who’d gone mad did not understand that you cannot put a genie back in

the bottle.

We may be going through a rough period as far as progress on equality and justice, but I still believe there are enough good people who will work through their prejudices and biases with which they were reared as they understand that those of us who’ve previously been left out, won’t turn back. I still have hope. No one can change the change for which we’ve worked so hard.
