Since Dom and Brian's Rio heist toppled a kingpin's empire and left their crew with $100 million, our heroes have scattered across the globe. But their inability to return home and living forever on the lam have left their lives incomplete. Meanwhile, Hobbs has been tracking an organization of lethally skilled mercenary drivers across 12 countries, whose mastermind is aided by a ruthless second-in-command revealed to be the love Dom thought was dead, Letty. The only way to stop the criminal outfit is to outmatch them at street level, so Hobbs asks Dom to assemble his elite team in London. Payment? Full pardons for all of them so they can return home and make their families whole again. Rated PG-13 for intense sequences of violence and action and mayhem

Robert Brown, Lakewood, has been named 2013 Oconto County Historical Society Volunteer of the Year for his work with the Holt and Balcom Logging Camp Museum. Bob, with the support of his wife Pam, played an integral part in saving for posterity the oldest logging camp in America still sitting where it was built. Shortly after moving to Lakewood in 2006, Bob joined the McCauslin Lions where he answered Norb Langer's call for help with school visits offered each spring to area fourth graders. Being a history buff and willing to spend some time sharing that love with others, Bob volunteered to lead tours at the camp. He quickly became more and more involved. He spent untold hours reading and researching the history of logging and the legacy of the camp to make the tours as informative and authentic as possible for the students and visitors who came to learn. He and Norb Langer painted the inside of the cookshack to give it a fresh look. He and Chris Goetz sorted, cleaned, and repositioned the artifacts to make them more organized and accessible.

Since 2009, when Bob accepted the role of Camp Manager, he has served as liaison to the schools and as docent par excellence. Bob organizes and conducts tours, oversees the Museum's finances, and helps with special events and programs. His love for the camp is contagious, and he is willing to offer private tours annually from snowmelt to snowfall. Bob Brown's hard work and devotion to the Holt and Balcom Logging Camp Museum made him an easy choice for the committee's special recognition. Lakewood and all of Oconto County are grateful for all that he has done "out at the camp."

If you were unable to make the November meeting, here is your chance to get in on the Holiday Dinner Meeting. It will be held Monday, December, 16th. A short meeting will be held at 5:00 PM. Cocktails and the Monday Night Buffet will follow. The buffet is $6.99 per person and chock full of delicious food. Also, please bring a nonperishable food item to be donated to the Christian Food Pantry at St. John Lutheran Church. AND bring a fellow business owner who is not a member and show them that the Lakewood Area Chamber of Commerce is on the upswing! We have gone from 42 to nearly 70 members in the past few months and plans are in the works for an Information Building as well as a super new Website that you can showcase your business on. So, please make plans to join in the Holiday Dinner Meeting by e-mailing back your reservation or calling 715-276-6500.

When the Museum's renovation began in 2007, Bob used his experience in finance to help plan for Phase I: roof replacement. During the next six years, he worked with Norb Langer and Kathleen Marsh to not only restore the site to its former glory but to ensure the camp's existence far into the future. Whether it involved moving artifacts out and back in, consulting with the various subcontractors, doing light carpentry and repairs, helping with fundraisers, or offering badly needed moral support, Bob got the job done.

At Wabeno Elementary we take time each month to celebrate one of our colleagues. Below you will find the articles written by individuals honoring the great people they work with. The Staff Member for the Month of September was Jackie Champine, Submitted by Jody Kalata Mrs. Champine is an exceptional teacher who has "stepped it up" and taken the bull by the horn. She has jumped in with both feet, when some of the Wabeno Elementary staff is just dipping our toes. She has shown not only her colleagues, but the community and her students that she's ready and willing to be a change agent in this uncertain time in education. She has shown her dedication to her profession by attending trainings over the summer to prepare for the changes taking place in the Wabeno School District. She was one of the first to sign up for the two day training for the Next Generation Classroom and not only cheerfully gave up three days of her first week of summer vacation, but also came back and helped present to the school board the benefit of these changes for the district. She also attended a Formative Assessment for Teachers training and spent many hours preparing in her classroom over the summer. Jackie has also shown her dedication over the years by organizing the school's F.A.S.T. program and taking care of all our apparel orders to help everyone show their school spirit. I've witnessed Jackie drop whatever she's doing to offer a supportive hand to an emotional student, a stressed out colleague, or a friend in crisis. Jackie is an outstanding teacher, friend, and mother, and I would like to thank her for all she does for our school. The Staff Member of the Month for October was Joanne Sisler, Submitted by Jacki Champine While thinking of someone that fits the Wabeno Elementary School model of "stepping it up" you don't have to look any further than where everyone's day begins...in the office! Mrs. Sisler has put in countless hours both before and after school and is certainly the engine that keeps this train a running! There are not enough words to state all the behind the scenes things that Mrs. Sisler does for the staff and students here at Wabeno Elementary and how appreciative we are for those things. However one thing does come to mind when I think of how Mrs. Sisler has helped me time and time again... the copy machine, a necessary staple in the life of a teacher. Thank you Joanne for helping with that copy machine( we all know and love). It really makes our day. The Wabeno Staff member of the month of November is Melissa Peters. Submitted by Joanne Sisler. Melissa looks like she has an easy job, after all, its just kids playing. Melissas position as elementary physical education teacher, like all of ours, is deceptive to those who dont know all the facts. She travels a fair distance to come to school and is reliable regardless of the weather. She always seems to have a smile for you, and time to talk or listen. She does have papers to read, tests to grade and needs to keep up on the latest professional material. She is a member of the PBIS team and volunteered to be a Check In-Check Out contact for students who need positive contact coming into and before leaving school. Melissa teaches how to work together, how to do your personal best even when that means youre not as apt as others-youre still a champion, and to help those less able to participate still have fun in gym class. Melissa holds the bar high on Classroom Expectations and doesnt allow poor behaviors to affect her teaching time. Her classes know that just because you have a stick doesnt mean you can hit someone with it. And on top of all that, this month, Melissa is 8 months pregnant. Dont you wish everyone knew what your job is really like? Melissa Peters, youre All-American in my book! Three speakers at the Wabeno School District annual Veterans Day Tribute were (L-R) Savannah Hennessey-Luther, Christy Mattern and Samantha Exferd, all seniors at Wabeno High School. The girls were also chosen to represent American Legion Auxiliary Wabeno Unit #44 as delegates to the 2013 Badger Girls State Convention held last June at University of WisconsinOshkosh.

Today, I had my last visit with the doctor, to get the results from my last blood draw. I was excited to see what foods Im still allergic to and which foods I can reintroduce back into my diet. I learned I can blame genetics for my allergies to Nightshade foods (potatoes, tomatoes, sweet and hot peppers, eggplant, pimentos, paprika, cayenne, and Tabasco sauce), Citrus (orange, lemon and limes) and Legumes (black-eyed peas, lentils, navy, black, garbanzo, kidney & pinto beans. My body fights them like a foreign material, but my white blood cells weaken from defeat. If I want my white blood cells to remain strong enough to defend my body from future disease, I must continue to rotate my foods, and avoid those that Im 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, dropped almost 1% body fat to 20.4% and my blood sugar is 80 (perfect). Ive learned a lot, feel better, understand the whys and what-ifs and will continue to prepare my meals from the suggested food menus I was given back in May. Im pleased with the results and will continue to eat properly and workout daily (weight-bearing and cardio). I wish you all a prosperous and Happy New Year. Happy Health to you all..Boni

Osteoporosis: Not Just an Elderly Disease


It used to be that osteoporosis was considered a disease that affected only the elderly. We particularly associated osteoporosis with older women. Today, the truth is that an estimated 20 million American women suffer from osteoporosis, and 80 percent of them don't even know it. Many people confuse osteoporosis with arthritis, and wait for swollen joints and discomfort before being tested. Even though osteoporosis is painless until a bone fracture occurs, it is important to find out how healthy your bones are now and if need be, adjust your lifestyle to avoid this brittle bone disease. The following tips may help to maintain healthy bones:

Start a regular exercise program. Walking, skipping rope, jogging, playing racquet sports, swimming and aerobics are all helpful in reducing the risk of osteoporosis. Exercising for 20 minutes, three times a week, is helpful.

Although weight lifting exercises are generally recommended, the National Osteoporosis Foundation says those suffering from osteoporosis should consult their health care practitioner before beginning a weight lifting program because excessive strain on the bones could result.

Those with severe osteoporosis and who have suffered from fractures may find Tai Chi, a form of martial arts, to be a beneficial strength training exercise system.

If you are looking for a calcium supplement, try one that's highly absorbable, such as microcrystalline hydroxyapatite concentrate (MCHC), or one of the malates, fumarates, succinates, glutarates, or citrates. But don't overdo it. Taking more than the recommended amount of calcium may cause kidney stones. Consider taking additional nutritional supplements, such as vitamin D, C, magnesium, zinc and silica after consulting with your doctor.

He was born on June 13, 1955 in Antigo, a son of Donald and Dorothy (Hayek) Rank. He married Kathleen Connaher on June 7, 1975 at St. Ambrose Episcopal Church in Antigo. She survives. He was a graduate of Antigo High School with the class of 1973. After high school he worked in Antigo as manager at Lee's Supervalu Store.
