From the Editor-news and notes
Well the great snowstorm of the season is on its way. We are ready. We made sure we picked up new batteries for our flashlights in
case the power goes out and a few extra food items. The National Weather Service has predicted up to and possibly more than 13
inches of snow is due to fall here within a 24 hour period. Stay safe and drive carefully if you must go out.
Bruce Wm. Mommaerts, CDFP, who has served as the Executive Director of the Oconto County Economic Development Corpora-
tion, Inc. (OCEDC) for the past 27 years, has announced his retirement effective May 31, 2012. Some of the key accomplishments of
OCEDC during Bruce's tenure as the Executive Director include, but are not limited to is a long list of achievements.
Toiletries are needed for men, women, children and infants who find shelter at the Rainbow House Shelter. Please drop your dona-
tion at Tantalizing Tanning, Pour Haus or at Timberline Breakfast Restaurant. This is one way we can help them to feel better.

The first UNAC (Up North Authors Circle) meeting of 2012 was held at the Lakewood Library on February 8. Facilitator Kathleen Marsh welcomed members back to begin the group’s seventh year of sharing their writings.
Nancy Jo Garner began by reading her newest poem, “Familiar Stranger.” Nancy Jo said she intends to make the poem into a song, which met with nods of enthusiastic approval from the group. Her poem is written in autobiographical quatrains with a “pay it forward” theme. In explaining why she wrote it, Nancy Jo elicited big smiles: “Kathleen Marsh and UNAC changed my life. She deserves so much credit for getting me started on a musical career that has evolved over the past year, far beyond anything I could have imagined. At the first meeting I attended, she and other UNAC members convinced me to perform at the Townsend Variety Show, and now I am entertaining on weekends at the Big Easel Restaurant in Wabeno.”
Townsend writer George Arentz was next. He blew away the group with a short story he entitles: “In the Marvel of Miracles.” This lengthy piece is yet another of those richly composed mosaic narratives that George is noted for. This time the setting is the Fox Valley, where the protagonist experiences unspeakable tragedy while finding true love. George’s story is a tale of human beings battling the worst of themselves, only to be saved by the power of love that they so desperately need.
The meeting ended with Shari Posselt reading a thought-provoking poem, “Bursting.” Shari’s rhymed verse is a wonderfully emotional piece in which the narrator stuffs his feelings and puts on a happy face. He does it for so long that he loses sight on his true self and then bursts, losing it and himself in a tragic meltdown. Everyone agreed that Shari has a way of packing her work with colorful language that really communicates an important message.
UNAC will meet again on March 13 at 5:00 at the Lakewood Library. New members are always welcome.

Each year as we begin to put together our annual Valentine’s Day drawing, we get excited with each new drawing prize that is donated. As in years past our Grand Prize winner is surprised and extremely happy when they learn what they’ve won. Each winner whether if they are local or from out of town always seem to have a huge smile on their faces when they have won something. Some have ex-claimed that they’ve never won anything to all of ‘oh my gosh I won’ is heard over the phone when they are called. It seems one of our winners this year is an avid health person and is looking forward to coming north to spend some time at the Tri-Fitness center. Gra-ciously the winner of the $50 gas card accepted her prize and passed it onto a local friend. All in all, eachand every winner was surprised and happy tolearn that they had won a prize in the 2012 Timber News Valentine’s Day drawing.

National Guard and Reserve
Mobilized as of February 21, 2012
This week the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps an-
nounced a decrease in activated reservists while the Coast Guard
announced no change. The net collective result is 423 fewer re-
servists activated than last week.
At any given time, services may activate some units and
individuals while deactivating others, making it possible for these
figures to either increase or decrease. The total number currently
on active duty from the Army National Guard and Army Reserve
is 54,366; Navy Reserve, 4,497; Air National Guard and Air Force
Reserve, 8,913; Marine Corps Reserve, 4,991, and the Coast
Guard Reserve, 761. This brings the total National Guard and
Reserve personnel who have been activated to 73,528, including
both units and individual augmentees.
The AARP Spring Valentines Party was held at Mulligans Sports
Bar & Grill on February 13, 2012. Members filled the dining room

with their favorite Valentine and friends.
At the next meeting on February 28 at 1:30 PM the speaker will be
Scott Anderson from the US Forestry Service. Scott Anderson will
talk about bears which is always a favorite topic of the local AARP
group.
All persons 50 and over are invited to join the local AARP Chap-
ter. AARP meetings are

Jay Merline, Vice Pres. officially opened the meeting with Patty
Swenty giving the treasurers report. Our President Kitty Werner
was absent. Jay then shared conferences and correspondence
about Al Bartz. Introductions were given as we had a few new-
comers join us. Old Business: We couldn’t think of any?
Jay, our Vice Pres. Read an article on books that are written, and
they are incorrect. People years ago, did not always do their re-
search. Jake & Connie Jacobs shared a video, A Genealogy
Timeline. In this presentation we learned what records are availa-
ble to us: Military, photographs, drafts, local libraries, local
care. Poor dental care leads to tooth decay, gum disease, and
gives you bad breath. Gum disease and tooth decay leads to ill
health via infection. Tooth decay happens when an infection-
like disease causes the tooth to
deteriorate and rot. Plaque sticks
to your teeth and is the biggest
source of gum disease and tooth
decay. Eating healthy, flossing &
brushing your teeth after meals and
before bed helps prevent
tooth decay. Avoiding sugary
foods and drinks helps keep tooth
decay at bay. Flossing reaches
deeper into the crevices to re-
move tartar and keeps your teeth
healthy and strong (and cheaper dental bills in the long run). If
you don't floss, you let plaque build cavities to form in between
your teeth. Flossing also makes your teeth have nice, finished
edges. See your dentist at least once a year (twice is better) for a
check-up. Get a good teeth cleaning to remove plaque, stains &
food debris. Dental-Picture-Show.com explains the dental floss-
ing technique pretty good.

A Word or Two From Dr. Adam
How to Select Athletic Shoes Because footwear plays such an important role in the function of bones and joints—
especially for runners and other athletes—choosing the right shoe can help prevent
pain in your back, hips, knees, and feet.
Unfortunately, there is no such thing as the very best athletic shoe—every pair of feet
is different, every shoe has different features, and overall comfort is a very personal
decision. For this reason, it is recommended that you first determine your foot type:
normal, flat, or high-arched.
The Normal Foot
Normal feet have a normal-sized arch and will leave a wet footprint that has a flare, but shows the forefoot and heel
connected by a broad band. A normal foot lands on the outside of the heel and rolls slightly inward to absorb shock.
Best shoes: Stability shoes with a slightly curved shape.
The Flat Foot
This type of foot has a low arch and leaves a print that
looks like the whole sole of the foot. It usually indicates an
over-pronated foot—one that strikes on the outside of the
heel and rolls excessively inward (pronates). Over time,
this can cause overuse injuries.
Best shoes: Motion-control shoes or high-stability shoes
with firm midsoles. These shoes should be fairly resistant
to twisting or bending. Stay away from highly cushioned,
highly curved shoes, which lack stability features.
The High-Arched Foot
The high-arched foot leaves a print showing a very narrow
band—or no band at all—between the forefoot and the
heel. A curved, highly arched foot is generally supinated or
under-pronated. Because the foot doesn’t pronate
enough, usually it’s not an effective shock absorber.
Best shoes: Cushioned shoes with plenty of flexibility to
encourage foot motion. Stay away from motion-control or
stability shoes, which reduce foot mobility.

Members of the Forest Larger Parish Presbyterian Church (with locations in Lakewood, Laona, and Wabeno) Mis-sion/Evangelism Committee went shopping at the early February sales for children's coats. Twenty-one coats in various sizes were purchased for distribution through New-Cap of Forest County this coming fall. Thank you to Kohl's East of Green Bay for their help in making this happen within our budget.

Mudslingers' Pub and Grill at the intersection of Hwy's 8 and
139 in Cavour has their patrons "slinging bucks" to raise mon-
ey for the Forest County Humane Society. This strange activi-
ty has folks tossing dollar bills at the ceiling until they stick!
Owners Karen and Jay De Jarden say that for their newly
opened establishment, they wanted to do a little something
different from the traditional "good luck" signing of dollar
bills tacked on the wall. Stop in, meet the owners, have a bite
to eat, see this strange new craze and "sling a buck" for our
Shelter!
From now until Mudslinger’s Pub and Grills Grand Opening
to be held in June, customers
will be ‘slinging buck’s’.
To have a little fun and to
help raise needed funding for
the Forest County Humane
Society, stop in Mudsling-
er’s to see how many dollars
you can help stick to the
ceiling.
