By Kathleen Marsh

The first UNAC (Up North Authors Circle) meeting of 2011 was held at the Lakewood Library on January 12. Kathleen Marshbegan by reading a very well received excerpt from Oconto author George Wamser’s “The Mystery.” Evelyn Gaede then reported on a

“once-in-a-lifetime offer” she had received from a self-publishing firm The company proposed that, for thousands of dollars in fees, a Hollywood“treatment” would turn her first novel, Chelsea’s Doom, into a screen play that “Hollywood directors were very interested in.” Evelyn wisely looked

more carefully into the proposal and saw it for what it was: a shamelesssolicitation routinely sent to every writer who had ever used the companyto publish his/her work.

Once that bit of unpleasantness had been settled, several writers sharednew and old work. Jacqulyn Jahnke, who travels from Green Bay to attendmeetings, had just come from an interview in Gladstone, Michigan, whereshe was getting information for her book The Purple Wedding Dress . Jacqulynshared a rewrite of a chapter from the book which she has been working on for several years. It was obvious that she had really “done it” this time,and Jacqulyn is now headed into the final stages of editing. “A summerpublication is a real possibility now,” she said with a huge smile.

The rest of the meeting had a new twist: it was entirely devoted to poetry.Clare Huisman shared a rousing “Packer Fight Song” that she had writtenin honor of Green Bay’s 2011 appearance in the playoffs. She got everyone

singing, and it was suggested that her song would make a perfect YouTube video.

Next, Zach Mason read three poems he was thinking of submitting to the Wisconsin Fellowship of Poetry Muse Contest. Groupmembers helped him choose a poem he calls “Paddy-Whacked,” hilarious, satirical rhymed verse. Newcomer Nancy Jo Garner then alsoread several poems, including “The Trucker Way” and “Near Island Song.” All of her poems are filled with amazing imagery that de-lighted UNAC members.

The meeting ended with Shari Posselt reading a sad and wistful poem, “My Horse Ebony.” Everyone agreed that Shari has a way of packing her work with colorful language that really communicates her passion for written expression.

Yoga, Pilates & Samba CardioBy Boni Verchota

Today, I had my last visit with the doctor, to get the resultsfrom my last blood draw. I was excited to see what foods I’mstill allergic to and which foods I can reintroduce back into my

diet. I learned I can blame genetics for my allergies to Night-shade foods (potatoes, tomatoes, sweet and hot peppers, egg-plant, pimentos, paprika, cayenne, and Tabasco sauce), Citrus(orange, lemon and limes) and Legumes (black-eyed peas, len-tils, navy, black, garbanzo, kidney & pinto beans. My bodyfights them like a foreign material, but my white blood cellsweaken from defeat. If I want my white blood cells to remainstrong enough to defend my body from future disease, I mustcontinue to rotate my foods, and avoid those that I’m“sensitive” to. I can add a few foods back into my diet(chicken eggs are still out). In conclusion, I lost a few pounds,gained lean muscle mass from more intense workouts, droppedalmost 1% body fat to 20.4% and my blood sugar is 80

(perfect). I’ve learned a lot, feel better, understand the whysand what-if’s and will continue to prepare my meals from thesuggested food menus I was given back in May. I’m pleasedwith the results and will continue to eat properly and workoutdaily (weight-bearing and cardio). I wish you all a prosperousand Happy New Year. Happy Health to you all…..Boni

A Word or Two From Dr. AdamTips to Maintain Good PostureWhy is good posture important?

• Helps us keep bones and joints in correct alignment so that ourmuscles are used correctly, decreasing the abnormal wearing of jointsurfaces that could result in degenerative arthritis and joint pain.• Reduces the stress on the ligaments holding the spinal joints to-gether, minimizing the likelihood of injury.• Allows muscles to work more efficiently, allowing the body to useless energy and, therefore, preventing muscle fatigue.• Helps prevent muscle strain, overuse disorders, and even back andmuscular pain.

How do I sit properly?

• Keep your feet on the floor or on a footrest, if they don't reach thefloor.• Don't cross your legs. Your ankles should be in front of your knees.• Keep a small gap between the back of your knees and the front of your seat.• Your knees should be at or below the level of your hips.

• Adjust the backrest of your chair to support your low-and mid-back or use a back support.• Relax your shoulders and keep your forearms parallel tothe ground.• Avoid sitting in the same position for long periods of time.How do I stand properly?

• Bear your weight primarily on the balls of your feet.• Keep your knees slightly bent.• Keep your feet about shoulder-width apart.• Let your arms hang naturally down the sides of thebody.• Stand straight and tall with your shoulders pulled back-ward.• Tuck your stomach in.• Keep your head level-your earlobes should be in linewith your shoulders. Do not push your head forward,backward, or to the side.

A Kindergarten Class Gives a Gift of Hope by; Jacki Champine,

A student of Mrs. Champine’s Kindergarten class at Wabeno Elementary has been unable to attend schooldue to his in and out of hospitals and doctors’ visits. Logan Wamego was diagnosed early this past August with Os-teosarcoma (a form of Bone Cancer) and has been bravely battling this heartbreaking disease with strength and

courage. Although Logan has been unable to attend school he continues to have positive hopes of one day soon re-turning and having fun with his Kindergarten friends. It was with this positive spirit that Mrs. Champine decidedto assemble a “Quilt of Hope” for Logan with messages of cures for cancer. Students at Wabeno Elementary pur-chased a signature space and all of the proceeds donated went to help the family on their trips in and out of thehospital for Logan’s chemotherapy treatments. With the unbelievable support from students and staff, Logan wasgiven a check for $800. “You have truly lifted one little boy’s hopes and should be commended on your generosity”

states Linda Roberts (Logan’s Grandmother).Logan and his family continue to fight forwhat will be one of the toughest battles theymay ever face. It is our hope that this little“Quilt of Hope” serves as a reminder of the

friendship and bond Logan has at Wabeno

Elementary. A special thanks goes to Patti Carter for donating hertime in assembling this quilt for Mrs. Champine’s class. “You did a

wonderful job and we cannot say thanks enough” states Mrs.Champine and her Kindergarten class!
