Located near Stevens Point, WI.

The September 14 meeting of UNAC (Up North Authors Circle) held at the Lakewood Library was another special evening. The meeting began with Lynn Burlingham reporting that she is working on a blog devoted to writing. While currently conducting a committed search for an agent/publisher for her memoir Jewels That Speak, Lynn says she is keeping her skills sharp by composing short stories and dabbling a bit in poetry.
A UNAC meeting would not be complete without a poem from Dorothy Devolt. Dorothy didnt disappoint as she read the first few stanzas of a poem she is working on. Its called Up North Authors Circle, and is, of course, dedicated to the authors who meet monthly to share their lives and their love of the written word.
UNAC will meet again on Wednesday, October 12 at 5:00 at the Joe Valitchka followed Lynn. Joe read a chapter from his own Lakewood Library. New members are always welcome. memoir aptly entitled The Africa Chapter. Joes piece relates his recent experiences bow hunting in South Africa. Joe had always dreamed of an African safari hunt, taking inspiration from Ernest Hemingway, one of his favorite authors. When the opportunity arose to accompany his son Chad on such an adventure, Joe jumped at the chance. Father and son booked the hunt with Ingogo Safaris & Farm, located along the Limpopo River, just south of the Botswana border. The duo was very successful, bagging many different exotic animals. Joe returned with lifelong memories, bragging rights and a trophy kill: a silver level Boone and Crocket impala. He passed around photos, which elicited many oohs and aahs from members. Evelyn Gaede followed by sharing an excerpt from Jennys Destiny, the sequel to her first novel, Chelseas Doom. Evelyn read Chapter 30, an exciting passage where Chelsea and Jenny are running for their lives. In this chapter, which relates a harrowing cross-country road trip from Arizona to Albert Lea, Minnesota, Evelyns ability to weave a great narrative and develop full dimensional characters comes through loud and clear. UNAC members attending the September meeting were (L-R): Dorothy Devolt, Jacqulyn Jahnke, Tom Thielke, Lynn Burlingham, Kathleen Marsh, Leone Kaylor, Joe Valitchka, Evelyn Gaede and Zach Mason.

Eat out more sparingly. Food preparation methods in restaurants often involve high amounts-and the wrong types-of fat and sugar. Brown-bag your lunch to control your fat and sugar content while adding nutritious fruits, vegetables, and grains. Dietary Changes Eat more raw foods. Cooking and canning destroys much of the nutrition in foods. With the exception of canned tomatoes, which can help prevent prostate cancer, fresh or frozen fruits and vegetables always have more natural vitamins and minerals.
Select organically grown foods when possible, because they have lower amounts of toxic elements, such as pesticides and heavy metals.
Consume 25 to 30 grams of fiber a day. Whole-grain breads and cereals, beans, nuts, and some fruits and vegetables are good sources of fiber. High-fiber diets can help prevent digestive disorders, heart disease, and colon cancer.
Drink eight to ten 8-ounce glasses of water a day. Coffee, tea, soft drinks, and alcohol are dehydrators. Don't substitute them for water.
Supplements According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, dietary supplements are not substitutes for foods, nor can a person sustain good health by just taking vitamin and mineral supplements. When taken properly, however, supplements can play an important role in achieving maximum health.

There were a few surprises in store for the 90 or so Lakewood Old Timers who attended their annual reunion on September 24 at Waubee Lodge. Jake Jacobs, a member and speaker from Oconto County Genealogy Society did a little digging on a few families from Lakewood. Jacobs explained some of the many ways on how he was able to research some of the families who attended. Using Ancestry.com and Familysearch.org, Jacobs learned about the Jackson, Flynn, Smyrh, and Ruggs. who were some of the earlier families to settle in Lakewood. Utilizing the online services, he researched birth, marriage and death records. He demonstrated a well organized family tree using Family Group sheets and pedigree lines.

Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, Jason Sudeikis, Jennifer Aniston, Kevin Spacey, Colin Farrell, Donald Sutherland What can you do when your boss is a psycho, a man-eater or a total tool? Quitting is not an option. These monsters must be stopped. So, on the strength of a few-too-many drinks and some dubious advice from a hustling ex-con whose street cred is priced on a sliding scale (Jamie Foxx), the guys devise a convoluted but foolproof plan to rid the world of their respective employers... permanently. But even the best-laid plans are only as good as the brains behind them.
