                                        In this issue we share an episode of the "Up North" podcast which covers shopping locally and running for local office.
                                        
                                        
                                    
                                Antlers: The real horror story is that white tailed deer have COVID
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        SARS-CoV-2, the virus which causes COVID-19, is proving to be resilient even with vaccination of roughly 60% of the human population.
                                        
                                        
                                    
                                What I am thankful for
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        This is the time of year when families gather and give thanks for the blessings in their life.
                                        
                                        
                                    
                                Enbridge threatens Lake Superior
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        Line 3 was routed out of Canada and into the water-rich 1855 Treaty Territory after Enbridge achieved what is known as “regulatory capture.
                                        
                                        
                                    
                                Neighborhood Investment Program is meant to fund needs, not wants
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        The Economic Development Committee (EDC) has told the city of Wausau that it has applied for $10.5 million from the Neighborhood Investment Program to fund a pretty pedestrian bridge in Wausau’s Opportunity Zone (WOZ) "vision” for the redevelopment of the former Wausau Center Mall.
                                        
                                        
                                    
                                Growing old forests
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        Northern Wisconsin was once covered with extensive old growth forests.
                                        
                                        
                                    
                                Taking none for the team
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        People like myself who have an autoimmune disease have some of the strongest immune systems, but it does not make us healthy.
                                        
                                        
                                    
                                Masks over ribbons
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know that a pink ribbon is for breast cancer awareness.
                                        
                                        
                                    
                                The state of women’s welfare in these divided states
                                        
                                        
                                        
                                        Yet I never find where anyone else says what I am about to say: legal abortion is a consolation prize for women suffering under systemic oppression.
                                        
                                        
                                    
                                
Stop being so serious!
