2016 Siren shooter makes plea SEAN DEVLIN EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM
SIREN—Jack Garcia, 43, of Braham, Minn., the man accused of shooting a Siren man in the leg last year, has plead guilty to 1st-degree recklessly endangering safety, a class F felony. It all began in July of 2016 after Garcia entered a Lilac Lane home through a sliding glass door. The incident occurred just after 5 p.m. on Saturday, July 17. The police report alleges Garcia, 42 at the time, of threatening and pointing the barrel-end of a black semi-automatic handgun at both the victim and victim’s girlfriend’s heads before firing one shot into the victim’s thigh. The report states after the shooting, Garcia took a backpack from the victim’s home and departed, driving a red Cadillac. The victim was eventually transported by medevac helicopter to North Memorial Hospital in the Twin Cities for treatment.
Within one hour of the shooting, Webster Police spotted the red Cadillac near a Webster residence where the backpack was discovered along with methamphetamine and a handgun with a bullet in the chamber along with a magazine containing nine additional bullets. When the authorities arrived at the scene, they noticed a vehicle with a female driver leaving the property. The police report states they later learned the female driver had learned of the shooting, driven to Webster and picked up Garcia on a nearby street. Garcia allegedly laid down in the back seat of the car, out of sight, and Jack Garcia left the scene undetected. The complaint states this driver took Garcia to Clam Dam and dropped him
WEBSTER— In 1979, Diane Whitcraft, at age 28, was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS). More specifically, Whitcraft suffers from what is called relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS), a form of MS which usually occurs in a person in their 20s or 30s. The unpredictable, often disabling disease of the central nervous system disrupts communication from brain to body. It can cause a variety of debilitations including walking difficulties, numbness or tingling, spasticity weakness, vision problems, pain, fatigue, balance problems, impaired coordination and more. Remitting relapsing is the most common form of MS; others are primary progressive and secondary progressive. There is no cure. Whitcraft suffers mainly from walking difficulties, impaired coordination, spasticity and weakness which caused her to begin walking with a cane at the age of 33. In 1993, a drug hit the market called Betaseron. Betaseron is a prescription medication used to reduce the number of relapses in people with Whitcraft’s type of MS. Diane began using the drug soon after its introduction. Its annual retail cost was then $11,532.

Siren board talks trail construction
Santa lands sleigh in Webb Lake
SEAN DEVLIN EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM
SIREN— The motion to open County Rd. B from the Village limits to Third Avenue for ATV use was met with a unanimous approval at last week’s Siren Board meeting. Village President Dave Alden punctuated the conversation with, “The more ATVs we allow, the better.” The motion will be brought to the Infrastructure committee this week and, if approved, will go through final evaluation at the Board of Supervisors meeting on July 20. In further news, the board will apply for a grant to assist with the financial commitment of a pedestrian/bike trail along the east side of State Highway 35. The board sees the need for the project due to pedestrians and bicyclists utilizing the shoulder of 35, a highway on which the speed limit alters from slower speed limits to higher as it leads away from the Village. By implementing a trail on the east side of 35, the board hopes to provide better pedestrian and bike access to Village businesses and amenities. The project is projected to cost approximately $500,000. Several months ago, the board was presented with four grant options and last week the board made the decision to apply for the Wisconsin DOT Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) funding option. The deadline to submit for funding is January 2018. If the application is successful, the TAP program will fund 80 percent of the eligible cost. David Schofield, a representative of MSA Professional Services consulting firm, stated that the TAP possibility offers Siren the greatest amount of financial support for the project. However, he mentioned the grant is competitive and due to WisDOT regulations, would render this project a multi-year endeavor. The board agreed that while this is an important project, a lengthy period towards completion is worth the potential funding available, funding that will not be on the back of taxpayers. The Sentinel will provide more information regarding the status of the project as it is made available.

Believers can be of any age. This biker group from St. Paul is sure Santa Sid is the real deal and a funny guy to boot.
SEAN DEVLIN EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM
WEBB LAKE—We’ve all heard the term Christmas in July. However, generally that’s all it is, a term. Have you ever thought what type of get-up old Claus may sport in the summer months? Well, Webb Lake – and more specifically, The Cabaret – discovered Santa maintains his white hair, fluffy, cloud-like beard and wears Christmas-themed Hawaiian shirts with berry red overall supported shorts. Oh, and his jolly demeanor is enough to make you forget the temperature is 87 degrees Fahrenheit and mosquitoes are swarming at all times. This summer marked the first of many visits by Santa Sid to Burnett County; Santa Sid is a Mall of America celebrity having worked as one of the mall’s Santas for over twenty years. Oh, and, by the way, Sid, according to a youngster many years ago, is an acronym for Santa In Disguise. Santa Sid also “admits to having a summer home in Eden Prairie,” he said with a chuckle. With the help of Rick Macias, one of the part-owners of the Burnett County classic bar, The Cabaret, decided this area needed a summer festivity that mirrors that of the Webb Lake St. Paddy’s Day Parade. The St. Paddy’s Day Parade, founded by Cicci Abbot in 1984, was introduced as an event centered around children. The parade has since grown into a beloved festivity cherished by all ages. The same value is at the center of the idea to bring Christmas in July to Burnett County. Macias and Dick Hamilton — one of the bar’s main owners — are the two frontrunners of this potential event. With the idea still molding to fruition, Macias thought to incorporate his friend, the famous 22 yearlong Mall of America Santa to northwest Wisconsin for a trial run— it was a success. People of all ages posed for photos, exchanged highfives and even shot the breeze with this legendary Santa Claus on the deck of The Cabaret on a sizzling Saturday afternoon. While the idea serves as another fun, unique event for Burnett County, much of the fuel for this sleigh is Sid’s dedication to the Christmas spirit and his love for kids. “I learned the art of winning kids. I see 17,000 kids a year. I may get five criers. I’ve been blessed with the ability to read kids. I’m able to figure them out,” he said. Forty-four years ago, Sid began working as Santa Claus at various malls, and even working independently for a time. He has never looked back. From January to November, Sid works near the

Twin Cities making airplane parts, or, as he put it, “making big kid toys.” But, when November comes around (which translates to 450-500 hours), he dashes into his iconic gear and heads to the Mall of America where he has gained such popularity, meetings are by appointment only. Santa Sid explained that he has been given the pleasure of seeing multiple generations of families come to him during the holiday months to get their festive fill. Part of the draw to Burnett County is the populous of locals and vacationers who dwell in areas like Webb Lake during the summer months. Macias, Hamilton and Santa Sid believe it is a great opportunity to create yet another fun-filled event for this area. “Every kid is worth the same time and energy. The greatest gift in the world is watching a true believer, a starry-eyed kid, and a happy parent,” said Santa Sid. The folks at The Cabaret and Santa Sid hope to see this event grow, Christmas in July. Macias stated that this year was a trial run and he is diligently considering how to approach the event next year.

Once again, I’ll flirt with the tempting curves of politics but won’t render an opinion on either side. There are many out there that may be able to ignore, feel indifferent to, or forget about our current political climate. However, I am not you. And, I admit, I’m a junkie. I throw myself headfirst into every left/right swaying source and read until my eyes burn. …
I’m considering signing out of politics for a time. Now, that may seem ludicrous considering my paycheck depends on my involvement with the news; however, I’m local. Washington and its many arms Sentinel and opposing arms is not anything that I necessarily need to focus on Editor to do my job. Sean Devlin Some may disagree, but I’ll just say that I can’t fully pull myself away from the national and international news sources. But I am going to focus my attention on other matters, matters that I am passionate about in a way that does not cause me to argue with the air and force my cat to look upon me with a cocked head (I know she agrees with me; she just has a hard time expressing herself). Now, that said, I’m considering testing my skills on the water… maybe I need to find/acquire/buy a kayak. I had this thought while sitting quite happily the other night in special spot overlooking Clam Lake while reading my current obsession, The Penelopiad, by Margaret Atwood. It’s a lovely read from the perspective of Penelope, the “patient” wife of Odysseus. I won’t indulge now as I haven’t completed this novella, but I will say it is a delicious take on the myth of The Odyssey. Currently, after ecstatic phone calls to my partner and another good friend, I’ve become quite the marketer for the book. However, Atwood needs no marketer, her prose and poetry are enough. Anyway. Back to the kayak. I sat imagining what a nice night it would be to drift while consumed in a good book— a story that tears my attention away from the manic coverage of U.S. affairs and positive and negative future. There are enough lakes up here and I have spouted enough about my love for the Northwoods, I may as well enjoy its amenities. I will say there is one thing that is getting to me, and it is something I can no longer sequester: my urge to talk books. “I have quite enough to keep me busy,” but enough doesn’t cut it. My home is filled with folded bits of paper dribbled with the names of suggested books. Every reader has a list of must reads, I sure do. Let’s share. Well, here’s the call-out. You know how to reach me. Phone, 715-463-2341. Email, editor@burnettcountysentinel.com. Chat soon.

Cracking cold, cold cases The History Channel on cable has been a favorite of mine for decades. I always like to learn more about the past, and they have done some truly great programming. Their reality based programming, with the exception of “The Curse of Oak Island,” has been a disappointment for me. I really don’t care about swamp people or ice road truckers. This week, the channel had a documentary about what happened to Amelia Earhart, the pioneering woman aviator that vanished in the South Pacific 80 years ago on July 2. Earhart was attempting to be the first woman to fly around the world. From the Garbled radio transmissions at Publisher’s the time led searchers to conclude Desk that Earhart and her navigator Fred Noonan ran out of gasoline and Tom Stangl crashed into the Pacific Ocean. What h d to Earhart E happened and Noonan has been theorized about at length for decades. The documentary explored evidence that has surfaced in U.S. government archives suggesting Earhart might not have crashed into the Pacific at all, but crash-landed in the Marshall Islands, was captured by the Japanese military and died while being held prisoner on the island of Saipan. A photo found by accident in the National Archives has been enhanced. It appears to show Noonan and Earhart at the Marshall Islands, with a Japanese boat in the background towing a barge with something that could be Earhart’s plane. The war with Japan has been over for over seven decades. There is nothing to be gained by either the USA or Japan withholding any information. But the flip side of that argument is that it has been 80 years since Earhart and Noonan disappeared. Anyone who may have been a credible witness is more than likely dead.

A second series on History, “American Ripper,” looks to link the unsolved murders of Jack the Ripper in London by proving that Herman Mudgett, alias H.H. Holmes, known as America’s first serial killer, committed the Ripper murders. The History Channel’s website describes the series this way: “Herman Mudgett, alias H.H. Holmes, was America’s first serial killer. No one knows for sure how many lives he took, but it’s believed he was responsible for killing as many as 200 people in the late 19th century. A con man, opportunist and evil genius, the crowning achievement of his dark deeds was the construction of a building later dubbed the Murder Castle: a hotel on Chicago’s south side that he engineered to be a factory of death, complete with a gas chamber, dissection room, trap doors and a basement furnace to destroy any trace of his sinister work. At the same time across the Atlantic, a killer was terrorizing the streets of London, murdering and mutilating at least five victims in the Whitechapel area of the city. To this day, the killer has never been caught or identified. He is known as Jack the Ripper. In American Ripper, Holmes’ great-greatgrandson, Jeff Mudgett, sets out to prove a controversial theory: that H.H. Holmes and Britain’s most notorious serial killer, Jack The Ripper, were the same man. After twenty years searching for the truth about his notorious ancestor, Mudgett partners with ex-CIA analyst Amaryllis Fox to launch an all new investigation, using 21st century science and methodology to unlock the secrets of one of the biggest cold cases of all time.” Again, it was a long time ago and connecting these dots will be an interesting exercise. As always, I welcome your comments. You can reach me by email at tstangl@theameryfreepress.com, telephone 715-268-8101 or write me at P.O. Box 424, Amery, WI, 54001.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
CAPITOL REPORT
Sincerely disappointed
To the Editor: In U.S. Representative Sean Duffy’s recent newsletter he requested feedback from constituents on the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). He asked, “When it comes to your particular economic situation – do you feel these repeated bailouts (under NFIP), especially for higher income people, are fair?” My answer is, no, it’s not fair. Rep. Duffy might try to extrapolate that fact to all the legislation he’s supporting that helps the rich and steps on the poor and working classes of this country. Rep. Duffy, how about working for citizens rather than corporations for a change? Duffy’s concern about high-income homeowners gaming the NFIP is disingenuous. Isn’t he the guy supporting hundreds of billions of dollars in tax cuts for wealthy taxpayers, paid for on the backs of low-income Americans as part of the pathetic excuse for a health care bill that he voted for? Why, yes, he is! Where was Duffy’s concern for “hardworking taxpayers” when he voted to pass the GOP health care bill and the bill to repeal financial protection provisions of Dodd-Frank Act and gut the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau? I’m sure his wealthy Wall Street campaign contributors are happy, but he might as well have just flipped off most of the people who live in our congressional district. I continue to be unimpressed with his efforts, his media statements, his votes and policy positions. I am sincerely disappointed in him. John Bailey Stevens Point
Do rules apply to all? To the Editor: Wisconsin’s gem, the St. Croix River National Scenic Riverway, is under attack by Sen. Sheila Harsdorf and Rep. Adam Jarchow. They have introduced legislation that erodes river protections that have stood us in good stead for 50 years. Why? Apparently, they believe rich people should be exempt from rules. New owners of the Lodge on St. Croix property in Somerset flaunted all zoning rules that govern this national scenic riverway when they built a patio and deck. In 2015, Polk County sued them and won. The ruling was upheld in court with Judge Scott Needham stating, “(the) defendants were well aware of the requirements of the zoning code but chose to disregard them.” At this point, the average person would be slapped with hefty fines and required to bring the building to code. Not so, if you are among the elite constituents – you just have Jarchow and Harsdorf rewrite the law for you! When I called Rep. Jarchow’s office to express my outrage, his staffer said, “Jarchow just wants to give control to the local level.” What a hypocrite! This is the same Jarchow who took control of our lakes away from counties and local lake associations and gave it to the state. Why? Follow the money. So, the next time you hear Jarchow or Harsdorf saying they are doing something to promote local control or to benefit the average person, don’t buy it. Jarchow and Harsdorf have demonstrated that they only care about elite constituents who don’t want to follow the rules like everyone else. Please call your reps and demand that they kill the bill (Senate Bill 309, Assembly Bill 399.) Laura Tiede Grantsburg
Challengers line up to take on Paul Ryan BY WISPOLITICS.COM
Paul Ryan was not so long ago the Republican nominee to be vice president of the United States. Now, he’s the Speaker of the House. This means he’s so popular in his southeastern Wisconsin district that no one would bother to challenge him in next year’s election. Right? Wrong. Ryan, R-Janesville, as of early July had two Democrats and a Republican saying they want his 1st Congressional District seat. One of the challengers, Randy Bryce, a.k.a. “IronStache” on Twitter, has attracted lots of national attention from Democrats anxious to make 2018 a big comeback year for the minority party. The iron worker from Caledonia (who sports a moustache) announced in early July that he’s raised more than $430,000. Since June 19, Bryce received more than 16,000 donations, according to his campaign, with the average donation totaling around $25. Republican Mike Gallagher raised $520,000 in the first two months after he announced plans last year to run for the open 8th CD. His campaign said that was the best initial quarter for a first-time House candidate from Wisconsin. Gallagher went on to easily win the seat, taking over for Reid Ribble, a Republican. Bryce, a veteran, cancer survivor and previous legislative candidate, hit the national stage when he released a viral ad announcing his candidacy in which he asked Ryan to “trade places” with him and “come work the iron.” Bryce most recently lost a state Senate bid to GOP Sen. Van Wanggaard of Racine. He also ran unsuccessfully for state Assembly in 2012, losing in a Dem

Deer! Darn deer! They ate half of my Phlox bush in my front yard. Now, many of us have problems with the deer eating things out of our yards, but I’m near the village business district right across from the fire department. As my girlfriend says, “Who needs a wilderness walk” when there is a vast variety of wildlife in the yard? Birds, squirrels, chipmunks, rabbits, bear and deer all visit my yard. We have had a sow with three cubs (sorry no pic) and even a six-point buck with his rack in velvet (I got a pic!). Remember, Senior Evening Dining is at 5 p.m. Thursday this week.

primary. Bryce primary opponents likely will include Janesville School Board member Cathy Myers. Republican Paul Nehlen, a pro-Trump businessman who got swamped by Ryan in the 2016 GOP primary, is challenging him again from the right. Myers told “UpFront with Mike Gousha,” a WisPolitics.com partner, that healthcare is a right and that she supports single-payer healthcare. While Democrats may be excited, political pros caution that Ryan’s district tilts Republican, that he visits his district frequently, that his staff gets high ratings for handling constituent issues and that he’ll have a big fundraising advantage. On top of that, he’ll have a lot of turnout help from the state GOP, which will be on full throttle to help re-elect Gov. Scott Walker and beat Sen. Tammy Baldwin. But Ryan will have his issues, as statewide polling numbers suggest. Almost two years into his term as House speaker, he’s increasingly becoming a national figure – and some insiders believe that explains the hit to his poll numbers back home. The latest Marquette University Law School Poll finds 44 percent of voters had a favorable view of him, while 44 percent did not. By comparison, in November 2015, shortly after Ryan became speaker, his numbers were 49-34. To some, it’s the price of being Speaker, which they call one of the toughest jobs in politics. On one side are Trump Republicans unhappy Ryan hasn’t been more helpful – in their view – in advancing Trump’s agenda. On the other are Dems who may have seen Ryan as a nice guy before, but now see him as taking marching orders from the president. Seventy-six percent of Republicans in the Marquette Law poll view him favorably, while 14 percent do not, which is worse than Trump’s 83-11 split with GOP voters.

there. He was apprehended and placed into custody by Burnett County Law Enforcement after being spotted riding a bicycle near Clam Dam. Charges against Garcia submitted to the District Attorney’s office by Siren Police Department at the time of arrest included aggravated battery, armed robbery with use of a dangerous weapon, possession of a firearm by a felon, misdemeanor theft, and possession of methamphetamine. On July 19, 2016, a “double-blind” photo lineup was conducted at the Siren Police Department where the victim and girlfriend picked out the defendant. They both stated, “100 percent sure” Garcia was the perpetrator. It was later discovered by law enforcement that Garcia is gang affiliated. Garcia has been in Burnett County Jail custody since the incident and on July 10, 2017 appeared in court for a plea
hearing. The July 10 date was originally set for the beginning of a two-day jury trial; however, a joint resolution was presented to Judge Kutz shortly before the court date. District Attorney Bill Norine read the agreement out to the court first by suggesting the original aggravated battery felony charge be amended to 1st-degree recklessly endangering safety, a class F felony. It was also suggested that the remainder of the charges be read-in and dismissed at sentencing. These motions were approved. Norine continued, stating both sides agree that a ten-year bifurcated prison sentence serves as appropriate punishment. Meaning, if approved by the judge at sentencing, Garcia would serve five years incarceration and upon being released, be under five years of probation. The next court date has yet to be set.
Fire in rural Grantsburg, 7-7-17 A fire broke out in the early afternoon of July 7, at 27692 Norway Point Landing. A pole shed was the only structure damaged on the property. According to the Grantsburg Fire Department, the owner was mowing the lawn and parked the mower by the large shed. At one point, the owner heard a pop come from the direction of the mower and soon realized a fire started and the front part of the shed was engulfed. It is reported the shed is a total loss and no injuries were sustained during the incident. Assisting Grantsburg Fire Department were both Danbury and Webster departments. Sean Devlin photo
Burnett County sees another drug court participant graduate SEAN DEVLIN EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM
BURNETT COUNTY—A courtroom can be a place of celebration. Just last week the Burnett County courtroom was overflowing in cheers and applause as several individuals took to the floor to detail their progress through drug court. July 6 marked 19 days, 75 days, 242 days, 389 days sober for certain participants in Burnett County Drug Court. However, the biggest reason for celebration was Ashlyn Buskirk. On July 6, 2017, Buskirk graduated from Burnett County Drug Court. Drug court’s mission is to “reduce substance abuse and criminal behavior in order to improve the lives for offenders, families, and the community by providing intensive court supervision, drug testing, and substance abuse treatment.” Particiapants in drug court begin by voluntarily signing a contract agreeing to the conditions of the program. The program is divided into three phases with specific requirements. Some of the requirements are that each participant find employment, remain financially stable and undergo periodic drug testing. Participants enhance to the next phase after careful evaluation by the staff in which progress and behavior are considered. Buskirk stood before the room while Judge Kutz reflected on her time in drug court. After motioning to Buskirk to stand in the front of the room, he said, “This is the best part of drug court, getting to work with people like you all the way through.” He continued, “You and I had a conversation when you first started and I believe it was you who said ‘You get out of it what you put into it.’” He added, “Life is the same as drug court—you get out of it what you put into it.” Kutz also touched on Buskirk’s level of dedication, stating that she could have

graduated last February but decided to stay on in order to develop more confidence in herself to live a different life. Just before being handed her certification of completion, she said, “I’m really nervous, but excited to use all the tools I’ve learned on my own and live a normal life.” The graduate explained that in the morning before leaving for the graduation, her stomach was in knots. She also said, “I’m excited to live without so much chaos in my life. I’m really thankful for the [drug court] team. When you are putting your life in so many peoples’ hands that you don’t know, you just hope they are fair and don’t look at your life the way it was printed on paper. They were fair.” Buskirk described the journey through drug court as very difficult. “The struggle is real,” she said. “It was very hard, but it taught me responsibility. I’m in the process of spending more time with my son,” she said with a smile. Buskirk is now engaged to be married and is also on the way to obtain a license to become a licensed practical nurse. She plans to continue with meetings. “If it wasn’t for my grandmother, Linda, I wouldn’t have been able to do this,” she said while adding that her grandmother took her in and provided whatever she needed in order to succeed in drug court.

MS: Bipartisan legislation seeks to reign in drug prices, allow importation of drugs CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
Three-fourths of all MS disease modifying therapies have had a price increase, on average, more than once per year. Currently, the retail price of Betaseron is over $90,000.00 a year. Whitcraft ceased usage on January 5, 2017. The rise of prescription drug costs is, of course, not a new topic for Americans. In a recent study conducted by CBS, relief is not on the way. The article states, “drug costs are projected to rise 9.9 [in 2017], compared with 10.9 percent in 2016. By comparison, wages are expected to rise just 2.5 percent in 2017.” The rising costs have carved a large chunk out of many Americans’ savings accounts and even retirement funds. Even more discouraging to many people is that despite congressional investigation into the rising costs, little if anything has been accomplished. The question has been asked, Why does this keeping happening? The answer is simply, the market allows it. Whitcraft asked herself earlier this year whether she should continue to take Betaseron and continue to allow it to drain their savings. “I felt very guilty that my chronic disease was going to drastically affect our finances,” she said. Before leaving her position in 2008, Whitcraft was a community education coordinator and her health insurance covered the costs of her medication. However, the health benefits from her employment ran out when she turned 65 last fall, and the financial burden fell onto Diane and her husband, Lee. Betaseron falls into the category of a Tier 5 drug, a drug many insurance plans don’t cover due to its high price tag. Stating that the catastrophe of rising drug costs affects every American, Whitcraft said, “It is and must be a bipartisan issue.” Earlier this year she received an email from the office of Tammy Baldwin (D-Wisconsin). After becoming aware of Whitcraft’s condition, Baldwin brought “Diane from Webster, Wisconsin’s story” to Washington D.C. At a bi-partisan Senate Health Committee hearing in June, Baldwin went to bat for her constituents by promoting a bi-partisan act formulated by herself and Senator John McCain (R-Arizona). At the hearing she said, “It is absolutely clear we

Rotten egg smell coming from the new faucet you installed recently? Due to low lead laws, many new faucets come with long plastic water supply tubes. For whatever reason, these plastic tubes act as a breeding ground for a harmless type of bacteria that is found naturally in much of the well water in our area. As this bacteria multiplies in the faucet supply tubes, it creates a sulfur gas that causes odor when you draw water from the faucet. Chlorination of the water supply and chlorination of the plastic tubes will often alleviate this problem. Chlorination may need to be repeated from time to time.

have a problem with drug prices when price increases accounted for 100 percent of the pharmaceutical industry’s $8.7 million bump in earnings last year. I fear it is about to get worse with the very partisan healthcare bill that is about to be brought to the Senate floor which I believe will make many, many, many, American’s pay a lot more for less care.” She continued to explain that she has heard from many Wisconsinites that are struggling to afford the care they need for life-threatening illnesses. “Wisconsinites like Diane, Diane is from Webster, Wis., has recently had to stop taking her MS medicine that costs more than $90,000 annually today. She has seen her savings being drained. “It’s why I had the opportunity to introduce the FAIR Drug Pricing Act with my colleague Senator John McCain to require basic transparency and accountability for drug companies.” Baldwin went on to explain that many drug companies argue that their reason for price increase is due to improvements. “We have no way to verify this,” said Baldwin. She added, “Our market is broken when people like Diane have to make these types of decisions.” John McCain is reported as stating, “This legislation would bring much-needed transparency to prescription drug prices – a policy that eight in 10 Americans support, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation. Transparency leads to accountability, and it is past time that mantra applied to the skyrocketing cost of prescription medication.” This act is not the only piece of legislation that is being presented in Washington recently as McCain and Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) in January unveiled a bi-partisan effort to lower prices by making it legal for Americans to acquire prescription drugs from Canada. The legislation reads, “The Safe and Affordable Drugs from Canada Act would allow individuals to safely import into the United States a personal supply of prescription drugs. Under the legislation, imported prescription drugs would have to be purchased from an approved Canadian pharmacy and dispensed by a licensed pharmacist. Drugs imported under this bill would be the same dosage, form, and potency as drugs in the U.S., but at a significant savings to U.S. consumers.”
In addition, Baldwin and Klobuchar are in the process of writing up another plan to make the transportation of prescription drugs from Canada into the U.S. legal. Whitcraft was invited to last month’s press conference in St. Paul to witness the Senators’ discussion. Both legislations argue that by making this legal, the U.S. drug companies will feel the pressure of competition and be forced to offer affordable prices. Baldwin had this to say about Whitcraft and the issue of rising prescription drug costs, “It’s been a pleasure to get to know Diane and stand with her in our fight to lower prescription drug costs. I’ve been proud to share her story and I think her voice must be heard because it’s time Washington stopped leaving people behind and started helping people like Diane get ahead. That is exactly why I worked across party lines with John McCain to offer a solution to the problem of sky-high prescription drug prices.” Last March, Whitcraft was in D.C. to attend the National MS Policy Planning Conference. While there she met with multiple representatives of our elected officials, including an assistant to Sean Duffy, to tell her story. “I do think people are listening. And, it feels good to be doing something. It gives my disease purpose. If we work together, we can stop these exorbitant prescription drug prices,” said Whitcraft. Diane is currently a District Area Leader for the MS Society and aims to build relationships on both sides of the political fence in order to make politicians aware of issues Americans, like herself, are facing. In addition to her work nationally, Whitcraft is striving to organize a self-help group in Burnett County and the surrounding counties for individuals who have MS. Whitcraft explained, ”I belonged to a self-help group of individuals with MS, and greatly appreciated the opportunity to meet, share, listen, discuss and become aware of positive resources. I hope that people coping with MS in Burnett, Polk and Washburn counties are interested in such a group.” The first meeting date is scheduled for 6:00 p.m., Tuesday, September 12 at the Larsen Family Public Library in Webster. Please contact Diane for more information. Her email is dianewhitcraft@gmail.com and phone number is 763-742-8572.

New legislation creates BadgerCare ‘Public Option’ to immediately lower health costs MADISON—At a Capital media event today, Citizen Action of Wisconsin and legislative allies announced legislation written by State Representative Eric Genrich and State Senator LaTonya Johnson that would allow all Wisconsinites the chance to purchase BadgerCare as a “public option.” The proposed legislation would allow Wisconsin residents, both individuals and small businesses, to enroll in BadgerCare at full price. A BadgerCare Public Option would save consumers on average over 15 percent versus existing health insurance options in Dane County and 30 percent versus lowest silver plan on average statewide. Many Wisconsin counties have seen insurance companies drop out of the marketplace, as they seek to cherry pick consumers, with Anthem being the most recent example. Health leaders have called for a government-run public option to compete with insurance companies and negotiate with pharmaceutical corporations. This legislation will expand BadgerCare to become a public option to help both Wisconsin residents who have lost their coverage and residents struggling with medical costs. BadgerCare currently enrolls more than 700,000 children and moderate income residents in every community. If opened up for all, residents would have access to a public option with a long successful history of providing affordable quality care. “Until then, Wisconsinites over the poverty line are at the mercy of private insurance threatening to exit following Donald Trump’s sabotage of the marketplace. Already, states like Nevada and Minnesota have made similar efforts to introduce public options at the state level,” a Citizen Action spokesperson said. A BadgerCare public option would save consumers immediately. The state
Legislative Fiscal Bureau estimates that a BadgerCare “buy-in” would cost adults $7,224 per year, while the lowest cost Silver plan in Dane County available through Healthcare.gov would cost a 40-year-old applicant $8,350 per year in premiums and deductibles. That is 15 percent higher, or $1,117 more, than BadgerCare. BadgerCare does not have annual deductibles. Statewide, this would be on average 30 percent less, or $2,162 less per person per year under this public option. “Both Governor Walker and Republicans in Congress have sought to sabotage BadgerCare, failing to recognize it presents the best way to rein in skyrocketing health costs for consumers,” said Robert Kraig, Executive Director at Citizen Action of Wisconsin. “With just a one-word change in state law, BadgerCare could become a public option that could compete with insurers and negotiate with pharmaceutical corporations.” “Under our plan, BadgerCare would be treated like any other health insurance plan available on the federal marketplace for individuals and small businesses,” said State Representative Eric Genrich, D-Green Bay. “It would be more affordable and more comprehensive than most other plans, and it would be able to hold down the cost of prescription drugs that continue to skyrocket.” “No matter who you are or how much money you make, under this plan, you would have the option to buy into BadgerCare – the state’s bipartisan plan that is popular, successful and cost effective,” said State Senator Dave Hansen, D-Green Bay. “The state can use its buying power to negotiate lower drug prices and services. This means lower out-of-pocket costs and lower premiums.”

It will also enhance relay communications along the southeastern county including Towns of Dewey, Roosevelt and Rusk and inter-county communications with a tower at Barronett. The county’s move to digital communications was under construction for most of a decade. Ehalt said Racom, the company that oversees the county’s emergency communications system for fire protection, ambulance service and law enforcement, will be working at the Hertel water tower at the end of this week. It will be a two to three day process to complete radio communications tests at the tower to be sure that it is communicating with county dispatchers at the government center and with other towers in the county’s network.

HERTEL—The final link of Burnett County’s emergency digital communications system may be working before the end of July. County Administrator Nate Ehalt told the county board’s Safety Committee Thursday morning that electric power from Polk Burnett Electric Cooperative is now connected from the communications building and its ground-based radio equipment to the antennas atop the Hertel water tower. For many months, a six-foot gap in the electrical line was all that kept the $200,000 in communications equipment from operating. County, tribal, business and government entities worked together to clear bureaucratic hurdles and complete the project. The new connection will bring the final tower in the county’s emergency communications system online

Public hearing on Grantsburg Airport borrowing set for July 31 BY STEVE BRIGGS SENTINEL
GRANTSBURG—Residents of Grantsburg and others with an interest in the Grantsburg Municipal Airport will have an opportunity to express their thoughts at a public hearing at 6:30 p.m. Monday, July 31 at the Crex Wildlife Education Center Auditorium, located at 102 E. Crex Avenue on the village’s north side. Specifically, the meeting is about whether to proceed with resurfacing the crumbling asphalt runway. It has cracks an inch or more wide along much of its surface. At its monthly meeting on Monday evening, the village board voted unanimously to receive public input as it considers whether to proceed with runway reconstruction, as recommended by the village board’s Airport Committee. Million dollar price tag The most recent price estimate for the project came from Matt Messina of the Bureau of Aeronautics in Madison. At a meeting Monday morning with members of the board’s Airport Committee, Messina estimated the price tag for resurfacing the runway, its adjoining apron areas and the street in front of the hangars would be $1.1 or 1.2 million. While some may find that dollar amount alarming, the plan is to complete the project without any increase in local taxes. The project
would receive 95 percent, or somewhere above $1 million of the construction cost, through Wisconsin airport entitlement funds and a Federal Aviation Agency runway grant. The other five percent would come from a local match. Covering the local match Pilots who use the airport told the Airport Committee they will take responsibility to cover the local match, which could total $5560,000. The pilots told the committee that the hangar owners will set up a Limited Liability Corporation (LLC) which will pay the entire local match through an increase in hangar owners’ monthly property rental fees to the village. The pilots own the hangars, but pay rent to the village which owns the airport land where the hangars are situated. The hangar owners say they will increase their monthly fees by $30 or “whatever it takes” per hangar per month, which would raise the funds needed for the local match without adding any expense to local taxpayers. Funding likely Asked about the likelihood of securing the funding, Messina said $600,000 in airport entitlements are presently reserved for Grantsburg’s airport. Messina said the balance of the funds would come from the FAA emergency fund, which earmarks money for runway resurfacing as a high priority.
If the project is approved, the resurfacing most likely would occur in the spring or summer of 2019. Every year, Grantsburg’s airport receives $150,000 in entitlement funds, but so far has not accepted the funds because they come with a requirement to operate the airport for 20 more years. Area pilots say a new runway would attract more pilots to house their airplanes in Grantsburg. Presently, they are meeting the FAA requirement of 10 or more airplanes housed in hangars in order to qualify for state and federal operating funds. Instead of accepting the funds locally, Grantsburg has exercised its option to forward the funds to the Burnett County Airport at the government center. That airport has used the funds to maintain its runways and access areas. Local costs low Asked what it costs taxpayers annually for the village to operate the airport, Village President Larry Ebersold said the annual hangar fees cover current operating costs. Pilots who house their airplanes in the airport’s hangars say the airport is valuable to the community for recreation, business and in disaster or emergency situations. They are proud that the airport has one of the few grass runways in this part of the state. The pilots themselves do the runway mowing and fill the gopher holes in the grass runway.

NEWSLINE Family of man shot by deputy rallies outside music festival
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Family and friends of a man who was shot to death last month by a Milwaukee County sheriff’s deputy gathered outside a summer music festival to ask for justice in the case. The Journal Sentinel reports that about a dozen people rallied outside Summerfest’s main gate Tuesday night. They held up a memorial pamphlet with photos of Terry Williams. Williams was shot after a deputy attempted to stop his vehicle because he failed to obey a traffic sign. Facebook video shows Williams didn’t stop and drove the SUV onto the median. The deputy, Michael Truax, has been placed on leave. Williams’ cousin, Shawna McKee, said the family can’t have peace until there is justice. The family said they did not know if they would file a wrongful death lawsuit.

NEENAH, Wis. (AP) — Three people are safe after their pontoon boat was swept by the strong current on the Fox River into a dam in Neenah. The Winnebago County Sheriff’s Department says it happened around 9 p.m. Monday when the three people aboard the boat tried to retrieve a dinghy that was stuck in a safety cable near the dam near the Oak Street Bridge. One person was able to use the safety cable to pull himself to safety. Two others were pulled through the dam but made it to shore with only minor injuries. The pontoon sustained serious damage.

Farmer Fresh Food Fun SUBMITTED BY: SUSAN ARMSTRONG BURNETT COUNTY FRESH & HEALTHY INC.
At the Farmer’s Market, we believe that eating fresh, seasonal food can be a quick and delicious addition to any meal. Health experts and chefs encourage us to enjoy foods grown at the same time of the year we eat them. For example, eat squash in the summer and fall and asparagus in the spring. More than just a trendy food movement, eating seasonally benefits both your health and your pocketbook. The best result of eating seasonally is you get the best tasting, healthiest food available. The same reasons that keep the cost of seasonal food down also drive its quality up. The food is grown closer to you so it’s harvested at the peak of its season and brought to market before it begins to tire. This means you get fruits and vegetables that haven’t had time to lose their flavor or their health benefits by sitting in a shipping container for a trip across the ocean. Tips to make fresh and seasonal meals with cabbage, zucchini and spaghetti squash. Cabbage: Use a traditional cabbage slaw to provide crunch to a pulled pork sandwich. Add a spicy slaw to your wrap or burrito! Creamy whole grain mustard slaw can elevate a bratwurst. Zucchini: Your Mexican dinners will be a hit with taco zucchini boats. Garlic zucchini noodles – who doesn’t like garlic, parmesan and olive oil? Feel free to add your protein of choice. Spaghetti Squash (you can cook it in the microwave): Comforting spaghetti squash and meatballs. Creamy spaghetti squash alfredo. Spaghetti squash with pesto and pine nuts for a taste of summer. Give it a try! You’re sure to discover something you and your family will enjoy. Over the upcoming growing season, the Burnett County Farmer’s Markets will offer samples of healthy, seasonal foods. We’ll share the recipes and post them on our Facebook page. In Siren, visit the market from 1-3 p.m. on Saturdays at Tesora parking lot south of the stoplight. ‘Healthy Minute’ is brought to you by healthyburnett.org

Twinflower far away BY EMILY STONE, NATURALIST/EDUCATION DIRECTOR CABLE NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM
The sun rose slowly on its long, midsummer track across the sky as we sped west on Interstate 90 in South Dakota. Lush forests, veiled by early morning humidity, fell away to cornfields with scattered, shady farmyards. At first the corn was thigh high; the ample rains and early spring allowing it to race past the folk wisdom of “knee high by the 4th of July.” Then, like going back in time, the corn shrank below the kneehigh goal and ended up at ankle high before petering out into a short-grass prairie with fewer and fewer scattered trees. The humidity in the air also disappeared, and despite the vastness of our view over endless rolling hills, the horizon remained sharp. On that horizon was a small mountain range with its tree cover so dark that from a distance the hills looked black. We’d arrived at the Black Hills. Suddenly, we were back among trees again, although dry ponderosa pine woodlands had mostly replaced the lush deciduous forests. Thickets of willows huddled along creek ravines, with birch, cottonwood and bur oak providing a haven for birds. The Black Hills— rising like an oasis out of the prairie—are a biological mixing place, with species from regions to the east, west, north and south. Swooping upward on a series of switchbacks, we arrived at Sylvan Lake in Custer State Park. Trading sandals for hiking boots and topping off our water supply, we struck out on Trail #9 to Black Elk Peak (formerly Harney Peak), the highest summit in the United States east of the Rocky Mountains. The first section of trail was all a gradual climb. Afternoon sun glittered on shards of mica in the trail dust. Finally, we began contouring around a ravine, and the trail became flat and shady. The respite from blazing sun and summer heat was welcome. We weren’t the only ones appreciating the Northwoods-like microclimate of this north facing cul-de-sac. A lush carpet of plants and flowers perched near eye level on the hillside. I’d been stumped when trying to identify many of the dryland plants we’d seen elsewhere in the hills, but here I was among friends. Wild sarsaparilla spread its compound leaves over little starbursts of white flowers. Bunchberry was in full bloom, with its pure white bracts glowing in the shade (the showy part of the flower is not even its petals; its big bracts surround a cluster of tiny flowers). From thick carpets of dollhouse-sized trailing vines, the pink, paired blossoms of twinflower gave the forest floor a Lilliputian look.

WEEKLY WAG News and Updates from the Humane Society of Burnett County
I hope everyone had a great week and enjoyed the 4th of July holiday, and that all your pets remained safe during the fireworks! It sure was busy out there with everything going on – lots of traffic and events. We had a few strays this w week and are happy to r report that a couple have r returned home safely. S Still waiting is a cute litt female Yorkshire Tertle r rier, who is a senior. The p poor little gal was found o July 2 in the Danbury on a area and arrived looking under-kept. u Sammy This week I decided to feature Sammy again. Sammy is a nine-year-old Jack Russell Terrier who has been waiting at the shelter since May 5. She is the sweetest gal who loves a good lap to sit on. Don’t let her age fool you. Sammy is full of life and enjoys human company. She would sure appreciate a good home and a family to call her own. Senior pets need love, too. It takes a special person to adopt a senior dog, so please, isn’t there someone out there who would provide her the good home she deserves? Then there is Dot, the cute little male kitten who came in as a stray. Dot is a very sweet and adorable grey and white kitty who got his name because he has a little grey dot on his nose. There is nothing better than a snuggly kitten that purrs in your ear Dot and entertains you when they are playful. Personally, I am a cat lady and love having them as part of my family (I have seven). I also have two dogs, so it’s a busy household. It’s not home without a pet or three and they are good for the soul! Things are moving along with the plans for our new cat building. We’re really excited at the progress as we move closer to getting it built. When the shelter was originally formed, only dogs were accepted. It wasn’t until later that we started taking cats, so this will be a great improvement. If you’re interested in seeing what we’re up to, stop on in and we’ll be happy to fill you in. It’s busy times as we move towards our goal and create new ones to help the animals in our county. We hope you will consider being part of the animal care community, as we could sure use your help! Until next time, have a great week and take a little time for yourself. Always remember “Adopt, don’t shop.” Also know that when you adopt an animal, you save the lives of two – the one you adopt and the one you make space for at the shelter! If you are interested in adopting Sammy, Dot or another animal from The Humane Society of Burnett County shelter, please call (715) 866-4096 or visit the website at www.hsburnettcty.org.

These little bell-like flowers exist under the radar of most hikers. They don’t look like much from five feet up. But, they did catch the attention of Carl Linnaeus, the “Father of Moderns Taxonomy,” who defined our scientific system of naming living things with a genus and species in 1753. Twinflower was Linnaeus’s special favorite. Although Linnaeus reportedly was arrogant and named nearly 8,000 plants during his lifetime, he refrained from naming any after himself. Instead, he cheekily named beautiful plants after his supporters and named weeds after his critics. Linnaeus first named this sweet little flower Rudbeckia for two Lapland explorers who knew it well. Later on, he also applied Rudbeckia to black-eyed Susans, which left twinflower in need of a new genus. Linnaeus’s friend, Jan Frederik Gronovious, stepped in and named Linnaeus’s favorite flower after the botanist himself. It became Linnaea borealis. Linnaeus’s influence circles the globe so it’s appropriate this his namesake plant does as well. Twinflower grows across the northern hemisphere from Sibera to Sweden and across North America. In Europe, foresters consider twinflower to be an indicator of ancient woodlands. I often see it across the upper Great Lakes region, and I’ve also seen it in northern New England. The Rocky Mountains and Pacific Northwest have it, too. Despite being so cosmopolitan, there’s a definite gap in its range across the Great Plains. It can’t survive those stark South Dakota prairies. So how did this tiny little belle come to be separated east from west? Bunchberry, thimbleberry, wild sarsaparilla and more share this disjunct pattern of their populations. Not long after the glaciers melted, these plants would have enjoyed the cool, damp climate they prefer across much of the continent. Then, about 9,000 to 5,000 years ago, the climate warmed. During this Holocene Climate Optimum, warmer, dryer conditions forced these northern species out of the arid Great Plains. They were left to survive in the refuges that mountains and boreal forests still provide. By vining perennially over its habitat, twinflower is able to exist in isolated microhabitats far from its strongholds. Climate change has become a significant concern for the conservation of this species, especially on the edges of its current range. Although I see it often at home, I felt a special kinship with twinflower on this hot, arid hike as we both found refuge in the cool shade of a north-facing slope. For 50 years, the Cable Natural History Museum has served to connect you to the Northwoods. Come visit us in Cable! Our new exhibit: “Better Together – Celebrating a Natural Community” is now open.

Wisconsin varsity basketball teams to go on shot clock
STEVENS POINT, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin high school basketball teams will soon be on the clock. The WIAA’s Board of Control has voted to implement a 35-second shot clock for varsity basketball games only beginning with the 2019-20 season. The WIAA says the board reached the decision following a lengthy discussion at a meeting on Thursday. The shot clock vote was among a number of issues ruled on by the board. They included support for an amended recommendation for a two-year experiment to create two divisions in boys hockey starting with the 2020 state tournament. The tourney format would feature four teams in Division 1 and four in Division 2. The smallest 32 programs by enrollment would be assigned to Division 2.

Mel Mogen to assume circuit judge bench July 24 BY STEVE BRIGGS SENTINEL
BURNETT CO. GOV’T CENTER— Although there were no big decisions Thursday at the county’s safety committee meeting, much news was passed from department heads to committee members about the new judge, disaster reimbursements, the meth diversion program and storm shelters.
Mogen appointed to bench
New Burnett County Circuit Judge Melissia “Mel” Mogen was appointed to the bench on Monday morning, July 10 in Hudson. A Burnett County investiture ceremony will be at 2 p.m. Friday, Aug. 25 when her mentor, retired Judge Kenneth Kutz, will administer the oath of office. The public is invited to attend the event. Refreshments will follow. Judge Mogen attended state classes and was also studying on her own since her April 4 election. Over the next two weeks, Judge Mogen will mentor with 12 judges in seven counties. “I am excited to get on the bench and serve my county,” Mogen said. “I have a lot to be thankful for and a lot to give back to my community.”
Busy court docket A busy court docket awaits her. Burnett County District Attorney Bill Norine told the county board’s safety committee Thursday that, thanks to the efforts of several reserve judges, the court does not have a case backlog. “We had a jury trial with Judge Rasmussen one week ago. Judge Erickson was here yesterday. Judge Kutz is here today, and we’ve also had Judge Stewart from Menomonie and Judge Lucci from Douglas County. The court volume is very heavy right now, but we are keeping up,” Norine said. He added State Sen. Sheila Harsdorf recently sponsored a bill that would create a full-time assistant district attorney for Burnett County. “That’s the good news, but the bad news is that, if it passes, it won’t go into effect until January, 2019.” Presently, the office has former Polk County District Attorney Dan Steffen as a part-time assistant DA. Burnett, Washburn and 17 other counties would get a full-time assistant DA under the Harsdorf bill, which based the need for the new full-time positions on case load. Norine said several important cases are on the docket, including an attempted homicide case and a shooting case that was to conclude on Monday.
Meth Diversion Program Norine told the committee that Burnett County’s Meth Diversion program is unique to the state. “It is a high-risk, high-reward” program for the defendant. “It’s high risk because the defendant pleads to the most serious charge. “Yesterday, we had someone plead guilty to delivery of methamphetamine. But, that plea is deferred pending completion of the Meth Diversion program, and the charge is dismissed if they succeed. If they don’t succeed, they come back for sentencing, so it’s high-risk, high-reward. It’s a good incentive for the defendant.” Norine expressed some personal concerns about the diversion program versus incarceration. With incarceration, it sobers them up, he said, while it can take months and months to get meth out of the blood system. Norine said the diversion system has worked for some defendants, but not all. Some have failed. “It’s a tough program to comply with,” he added. “The deferment stays in place for one year, so even after the diversion program usually ends in 90 days, they must maintain complete sobriety for another nine months to complete the year. They’re not off the hook. The Burnett County diversion program is a model that other counties are watching,” Norine concluded.
Court office moving to ‘e-filing’ Clerk of Court Trudy Schmidt told the Safety Committee her office is moving away from paper files and going to entirely computerized “e-filing” on Oct. 15, as required by the state. “In June, I attended a conference about e-filing in La Crosse, and I came back very excited,” Schmidt said. “Next year’s budget will be different because we won’t be ordering paper file folders. It will be different, but things will be good.” One of the challenges they will face is sending out the jury papers for 2018 at the same time they are making the transition. Private individuals filing a case may still choose to use paper files, but the clerk’s office will simply scan the original paper pages and return the file to the individual. “We will have no paper files in our office by the end of October,” she said. Several of the area law firms have started to use electronic filing, she said. “Polk and Washburn County courts are already on e-filing, so the lawyers around us are all jumping on board.”
SOCIAL SECURITY:
Towns to start getting 2016 storm payments Emergency Management Director Jim Tolbert told the committee that all Burnett County towns have begun to receive federal “obligations packages” from the July 2016 rainstorm that flooded some northern parts of the county with six inches of rain. “This is many months later than we expected to receive it. Now work can proceed and hopefully we can get the payments for the towns. We have received only three payments so far out of 16.”
No public storm shelter Tolbert told the committee “We have had lots of calls from people asking where is our public (storm) shelter, and we have to tell them there isn’t one.” During business hours, people would be welcome to seek safety in the government center. “Probably, they would be welcome in the schools, but we do not have a public shelter for tornadoes.” Committee Chair Gerald Pardun said the St. Croix Tribe welcomes people to take shelter from storms at the casinos in Danbury and Hertel.
Medical Examiner reports quiet 4th Medical Examiner Mike Maloney told the committee the Fourth of July extended weekend was very quiet for his office, with two deaths, one from cancer and the other from old age. “No calamities, no troubles, everyone still has their fingers and hands and no 4-wheelers wrapped around trees. A very quiet weekend considering how many people we had in the county.” Maloney said his coroner’s office had 62 calls for service so far this year. At 54 of those calls, survivors chose cremation services for their loved ones over traditional burial services.
Sheriff, jailer report busy 4th weekend Unlike the medical examiner’s report, Jailer Mark Schmidt said, “We had a very busy weekend at jail and dispatch. The jail was full and remains full. Two weekends ago, we had eight new arrests, and seven were for possession of meth. Our meth problems are terrible. “We aren’t seeing any relief from our
Plan Perfect the
jail population, but we may see some. Many probations were revoked in the past two months. About six will be going back into the Wisconsin prison system. We haven’t had a judge, so when we get a judge, everything is going to be crammed together on those court dates. “We’ve had some issues with crowding,” Schmidt continued. “The sheriff has asked me to start collecting some numbers on our county jail population, our out-of-county prisoner housing numbers, the amount of resources being tied up to accommodate the situation. I will be supplying those numbers to the sheriff so we can begin looking at some alternatives.” One solution Schmidt said the sheriff’s department and clerk of court office want to implement with the new judge is to give persons found guilty an imposed and stayed sentence, rather than withholding the sentence. “That way, if they goof up on probation, they don’t go back to court. They go instead to where they will serve their sentence.”
Roundabout cheaper, safer than stoplight
Sheriff Ron Wilhelm told the committee that other than the occasional confused driver who goes the wrong way trying to get to Superior, Burnett County’s roundabout on State Road 70 near the airport and government center is reducing accidents and keeping traffic flowing much better than the previous stoplight. “The roundabout is slick. “Traffic moves through it so much faster and cheaper. No electric bills or drivers knocking down posts. I can see why the state is going to them. They keep traffic flowing.”
National Night Out Tuesday, August 1 in Siren, Grantsburg
Sheriff Wilhelm told the committee that National Night Out will be held on Tuesday, August 1 at Crooked Lake Park, Siren and the fire hall, Grantsburg. Both events will include a free meal, kids games and informaiton booths. More details in next week’s paper. Come meet and greet your neighbors!

Grantsburg singers perform in Chicago GRANTSBURG—Eleven members of the Grantsburg Community Chorale joined choirs from Texas, Illinois, Minnesota and Wisconsin in a mass choir concert Monday evening, June 26, at Fourth Presbyterian Church in downtown Chicago. The 120-voice choir sang under the direction of Dr. René Clausen, director of the famed Concordia College Choir of Moorhead, Minn. The choir performed seven pieces written or arranged by Dr. Clausen, who is in his 33rd year of directing the Concordia Choir. The Grantsburg Choir, under the direction of Linda Benge, rehearsed the challenging music on Sunday evenings for several months. Sharing a coach bus to Chicago with the Grantsburg Chorale were 20 members of the Itasca County Chorus from Grand Rapids,

Judge orders changes at Wisconsin juvenile prisons MADISON (AP) — A federal judge says Wisconsin’s use of solitary confinement in its juvenile prisons poses “acute, immediate and enduring” harm to young inmates and is ordering that it be dramatically scaled back. U.S. District Judge James Peterson on Friday also ordered that shackling juvenile inmates and the use of pepper spray be used much more sparingly than now. Peterson ordered the state Department of Correc-
tions and attorneys for inmates who challenged the disciplinary tactics to report back in two weeks on how they will structure the changes he ordered. He did not immediately order that the practices stop as those challenging them as unconstitutional had wanted. Peterson, however, says Wisconsin’s practices at the Lincoln Hills and Copper Lake prisons are out of step with national norms.

The center’s annual election was held in June and Judy Bauerfeld was re-elected as vice-president and Bill Berglund as treasurer. Dues to be a voting member can start being paid in August.

We are always looking for new ideas and suggestions. Remember: A smile on your face and a song in your heart makes even the cloudiest days seem brighter. See you at the center.

Twin Cities author to speak July 20 at Larsen Family Library, Webster WEBSTER— Twin Cities writer Wyndemere Coffey, author of The Auspicious Star of Stella June, will speak at 7 p.m. Thursday, July 20 at Larsen Family Public Library in Webster. Coffey will speak, answer questions and autograph her book. The event is free and all are welcome. Wyndemere Coffey was born in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. Descended from a long line of bluegrass musicians and finding herself devoid of any musical talent, she turned to writing at an early age. Her work reflects her love of the people and places of the South. Between writing and raising a family, she also worked as a photojournalist and a teacher. In her few free hours, she enjoys remodeling, martial arts and a secret Pinterest addiction. She lives in the Twin Cities with her family and her two somewhat dysfunctional cats. Book synopsis: When twelve-year-old Dixie June meets her mama for the first time, she’s sure there’s been a cosmic mistake. Abandoned by her mother and the only granddaughter of Jeremiah June, a powerful preacher, Dixie lives a life of privilege enjoyed by few in her small town of Sparta, North Carolina. Sheltered from the realities of a country on the verge of the Great Depression, she grows up steeped in the security of God, segregation and the awesome power of the June name, unaware of the brutal history of her family and her own intolerance. But when her mama, Stella, returns home pregnant and determined to reclaim her daughter, Dixie is forced to choose between the life she knows and the mother she never had. Drawn together by Jeremiah’s murder and the chaos that ensues, Dixie and Stella forge an uneasy relationship as they flee the mountains of North Carolina. Together, they retreat to the quiet anonymity of Ocracoke Island, a storm-battered slip of land along the Carolina Outer Banks where they begin to rebuild their lives. Their newfound happiness, however, is not to last. As the summer progresses, Stella becomes increasingly delusional, until at last Dixie is forced to protect her mother from her private demons and the secret of Jeremiah’s murder. A coming-of-age story steeped in the history and lore of the South, The Auspicious Star of Stella June is a novel of love, loss and the long road to redemption.
Spotlight on the Village Players DANBURY—The cast is set and rehearsals are underway for the Village Players Community Theatre (VPCT) 2017 summer production of “Roses in December,” an entertaining play of letters by Victor L. Cahn (produced by special arrangement with Samuel French). “Roses In December” is part mystery, part memoirs and part romance. When young PhD candidate, Carolyn, is assigned the task of recruiting famously reclusive author Joel Gordon to attend the college’s Alumni Weekend, he repeatedly declines. Carolyn’s tenacity, however, prevails. A series of letters between the pair deepens into a friendship eventually revealing a secret from Gordon’s past, which may bring to light who Carolyn’s real father is. “Due to circumstances beyond our control, we unfortunately needed to replace “Death by Golf” (originally set as this season’s play) with “Roses in December,” said VPCT Board President Priscilla Bauer. “Though we had to make this change very late, the board was impressed by the willingness and enthusiasm shown by our cast and director to make the switch. They have embraced this fine new play and we are expecting to see great performances and invite all to come to a show.” Meet the Director The VPCT Board of Directors welcomes Jim Anderson of Eagan as director of “Roses in December,” which will run the evenings of July 27-29 and August 3-5 with two Sunday matinees on July 30 and August 6. Anderson and his wife recently bought a cabin on North Sand Lake. After attending a VPCT performance last summer, he expressed interest to the VPCT Board in directing this season’s play. “I’m excited to be directing my first Village Players production,” said Anderson. “It is a pleasure to direct such a well written and witty play. The audience will laugh and some will have a tear,” noted Anderson. “The play tugs on all emotions.” Anderson’s directing credits include “It’s A Wonderful Life,” “Christmas Belles,” and “Insane with Power.” Some of his favorite acting roles include “The Music Man” (Mayor Shinn), “Guys and Dolls” (Lt. Brannigan), “Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” (Zebulon), “The Regifters” (Tom Mulligan), “Peter Pan” (Cecco/Flight Team) and “Beauty and the Beast” (Bookseller). In addition to Anderson’s impressive list of acting credits with the Eagan Summer Theatre, he also has extensive experience working behind the scenes as a

INSURANCE ADVICE
Q.
Q. How do insurance companies deal with yard trampolines?
A.
Insurance companies have paid out large sums of Gary Nelson money for liability cases involving trampolines. Some companies will allow them but under certain conditions: urban yard must be fenced, trampoline must have netting, etc. If a company does allow a trampoline, there may be a surcharge on the policy ranging from a modest amount to $100 depending on the company. It is always best to check with your agent to make sure. A number of years ago a large lawsuit was settled when a suburban family was away on a vacation but left their trampoline intact in their fenced back yard. Neighbor kids hopped the fence, jumped on the trampoline, and one fell off. He broke his spinal cord, and the boy was paralyzed. The boy’s family sued and a jury awarded a large sum as the trampoline should have been disassembled while they were gone. The court referred to the trampoline as an “attractive nuisance,” meaning it enticed kids to use it. You never know what a jury will do, so be prepared.

Loss of income and extra expense coverage is an endorsement that can be added to your farm policy. This will help cover continuing operating expenses and additional expenses that may occur at the time of a loss. This coverage is very important for dairy farmers if they were to lose the barn or parlor to rebuild and continue milking. While the structure is being rebuilt, the insured would be without income from milk production without this endorsement. It will help supplement that income loss during the rebuilding process. Whenever in doubt of your policy coverage or in need of a specialized type of insurance, make an in-person visit to your experienced insurance agent. You will be glad you did!

The sooner the better. Kids who have Melinda Deye, NP-C discussed drugs with a guardian are half as likely to use drugs compared to those who didn’t. Kids who aren’t properly informed are at greater risk of experimenting with drugs. At any age a discussion can be made so don’t wait, do it today! Take advantage of “teachable moments” such as using the media as a conversation starter. For example, if someone on TV has a cigarette, talk about the harms of smoking and use terms your child can understand. Ask questions in a nonjudgmental, open-ended way such as, “What do you think about drugs?” For teens, inform them about the dangers of driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Talk about the legal issues, jail time and fines, and the possibility that they or someone else might be killed or seriously injured. 257 W St George Ave Grantsburg, WI 54840 (715) 463-5353 Visit us at: www.burnettmedicalcenter.com

Q. Why should I use an electric toothbrush?
Q. What is a birth doula? A. A birth doula is a non-medical, trained
Dr. Rollyn Lee
Although a manual toothbrush can be effective in cleaning your gums and teeth, electric toothbrushes typically use a sonic wave technology for a more effective clean. Most electric toothbrushes have a built-in timer that shuts the toothbrush off after 2 minutes, which forces you to brush longer and more thoroughly. Some newer electric toothbrushes even sync with smartphones to let you know if you are not cleaning all surfaces of your teeth properly. Brushing for 2 minutes twice a day is one of the easiest ways to help prevent gum disease and tooth decay. Call us today for our recommendation on an electric toothbrush that will best fit your needs! 1030 River Place Drive • PO Box 106, Amery, WI 54001 Phone 715-268-2103 www.river-place-dental.com
Q. How should I prepare for my interview?
A. There are more candidates looking for
professional who provides continuous physical, Sarah Bach emotional and informational support to Mama before, during and shortly after childbirth to encourage optimal success for the healthiest, most satisfying birth experience possible. A doula can help decrease the possibilities of the use of interventions during labor, i.e. pain medication or cesarean section, by offering evidence based birth options and non-judgmental encouragement for Mama and her support system. Having support from a non-related person allows outside perspective to your choices. Having a baby is a life altering experience; one second you are just you, and the next second you are a mother. A birth doula encourages and empowers you throughout your birth, splendidly improving physical and psychological outcomes of birth. There is no judgement or expectation toward any decision Mama makes; Mama’s choice is always the right choice.

A simple sling chair can also add durability by ensuring that the frame is primed and powder coated; Homecrest Outdoor Furniture features a double sling for added support, longevity and comfort as well as outdoor firepit tables and modern deep seating.

Dolores Johnson Dolores Esther “D” Johnson, 96, of Grantsburg passed away on Tuesday, July 4, 2017 at the Burnett Medical Continuing Care Center. The funeral service will be held at 11 a.m. on Satu urday, July 15 at Bethany L Lutheran Church of rural G Grantsburg with Pastor Jay T Ticknor officiating. Interm ment will be held prior to tthe service at 10 a.m. at Rive erside Cemetery in Grantsb burg. All are welcome to a attend. Dolores was born on Dec cember 1, 1920 in rural G Grantsburg. She was the tthird daughter born to Stanley and Ida (Amundson) Clementson. She attended Branstad State Graded School through 8th grade and graduated from Grantsburg High School in 1938. After graduation, Dolores stayed home for 1½ years to help on the farm because Grandpa Clementson was bedridden. She often said she would not exchange that time for anything because she could spend time with her parents since her sisters were either teaching school or enrolled in school. She later attended Bartley Business School in Superior and worked a short time for the City and County Economy Association in Superior prior to being employed at Northwestern Wisconsin Electric Company from 1940 until her retirement in 1987. On March 20, 1948, she was united in marriage to the love of her life, Harvey Lester Johnson, at Bethany Lutheran Church in Grantsburg. They lived in Grantsburg and in 1975, they built a new home on East James Avenue where they lived until Harvey’s death on July 11, 2003. Dolores continued to live in their home until her death. They had a good marriage for 55 years. They traveled in the U.S. and Canada, but the best was the month-long trip they took to Norway in 1981, where they met many of Harvey’s first cousins and other relatives as well as two sisters of Harvey’s dad in the Trondheim area. They also visited Harvey’s mother’s relatives in Bessaker and Dolores’ dad’s relatives who lived above the Arctic Circle in Sorreisa. Dolores was baptized and confirmed in the Lutheran faith at Bethany Lutheran Church and was a lifelong active member. After her sister Velva’s death on June 13, 2015, she became the oldest member of the Bethany Congregation. She was a member of Hope Circle and WELCA (Women of the ELCA). For many years, she sang in the choir and taught Sunday School and Vacation Bible School. She served as Church Treasurer, Sunday School Superintendent, and was a Bethel Service Teacher. She really enjoyed being with the Bethany Quilters making quilts for Lutheran World Relief. For many years, she visited shut-ins, bringing them the Sunday Bulletin and the sermon tape. She had many interest – growing flowers, reading, word games, crossword puzzles, Norwegian Hardanger embroidery, reading the Bible and memorizing verses. She had read through the entire Bible many times. Dolores liked to cook and invited people for meals. She liked to bake, especially dark bread, cinnamon rolls and Butterhorn Norwegian Goro. She took pleasure in sharing them with many people. Her special love was for her pre-school Sunday School classes. Her favorite quotation was by Charles Dickens: “I love these little people; and it is not a slight thing when they, who are so fresh from God, love us.” She had a genuine interest in young people, taking time to write encouraging notes and letters to them, and acknowledging their achievements. Dolores is survived by one sister, Marjorie Robinson; many nieces and nephews; great nieces and nephews; and great-great nieces and nephews, all of whom she loved very much and were important to her. She is also survived by her adopted daughter, Edie Manthie; and many other relatives and friends. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Harvey; her parents; sisters, Velva Bauer, Ruby Cook, Betty Skinner, Elayne Johnson and Deborah Clementson; nephews, Kevin Cook and Wayne Nelson; great niece, Emily Smith; eight brothers-in-law; three sisters-in-law; and father and mother-in-law, Louis and Marie Johnson. The family suggests memorials to Bethany Lutheran Church WELCA. Online condolences may be expressed at www.swed-

Jeffrey Johnson
Jeffrey R. Johnson, 67, of Webster, formerly of Duluth and Hermantown, died at home on Sunday, July 2, 2017, surrounded by love and the music of Tosca. Jeff had lived with metastatic prostate cancer for m more than 10 years and was a an inspiration to many for tthe strength and grace with w which he faced every day. A memorial service was h held Tuesday, July 11 at F First United Methodist C Church of Duluth. Jeff was born to Albert ((Abie) and Clarice Johnson o on April 27, 1950 in Biwabik, M Minn. He was a graduate of Biwabik High School. Jeff B began working on the DM&IR/CN ore docks in Duluth in 1972 and retired from the railroad in 2010 after 38 years. In Jeff’s words, “I married the love of my life on Oct. 16, 1976.” Jeff and Angie had two wonderful daughters and made their home in Hermantown while the girls were growing up. They then retired to their lake home in Webster in 2013. Jeff’s greatest enjoyment in life was to spend time with family, especially his girls and grandsons. He could frequently be found on one of the local golf courses. Despite his claim that he “never got very good,” others might disagree. Golf was much more than a hobby for Jeff, and he would often head to the course to play at least a few holes after enduring a long day of chemo treatment just to provide some normalcy. He also enjoyed many years of weekly “old man basketball” with a group of close friends in the Hermantown gym. Although Jeff was not an avid fisherman, he and a group of lifelong friends would take an annual fishing trip to Lake of the Woods. After retirement, the activity he most looked forward to was the weekly men’s group at First United Methodist Church in Duluth, where he was a long-time member. He was always grateful for the love and support he received from the group. Along with Jeff’s wry sense of humor and story-telling abilities, people were often surprised by Jeff’s love for and knowledge of opera, which proved to be a valuable diversion for him during his many hospitalizations. The family would like to thank the medical teams at Mayo Clinic for the exceptional care of Jeff over the years, especially Dr. Eugene Kwon, Dr. Jeffrey Karnes and Dr. Michael Bannon. Special thanks also to the staff of St. Croix Hospice for their loving care and compassion. Memorials may be directed to First United Methodist Church of Duluth, or CHUM (Churches United in Ministry) Duluth. Survivors include his wife of 40 years, Angela (Angie); daughters, Rhiannon of Maple Grove and Kelsey (Adam) Lyons of La Crosse; grandsons, Owyn and Cayden Lyons of La Crosse; brothers, Jay (Chris Dinsdale) of Seattle, and Jan (Lois) of Chisago City; sistersin-law, Becky Barnes and Cindy Larson Orn of Alexandria; many nieces and nephews. Jeff was preceded in death by his parents; mother and father-in-law (Loris and Harvey Larson); brother-in-law, Donavon Larson; and nephew Jonathan Barnes.

The Old Rugged Cross You see it on necklaces, on buildings and along the highway â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the cross â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the great symbol of Christianity. The cross reminds us of Christâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sacrificial and saving love. Jesus died on the cross for our sins. Jesus died for our sins because He loved us. On the cross, just before He died, Jesus cried out, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is finished!â&#x20AC;? On the cross, Jesus was forsaken of God, experienced hell, paid our debt and died. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love that old cross, where the dearest and best, for a world of lost sinners was slain.â&#x20AC;? Pastor Dale Van Deusen Then Jesus was taken down from the Trade River Free Evangelical cross. Free Church
The cross is empty, and so is the tomb of Jesus! He rose from the dead! So a plain cross, an empty cross, is the great symbol of biblical Christianity. The cross shows how God has been personally and actively involved in world history. God in Christ became a man, experienced suffering, and was tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin. The cross summarizes Jesusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; life of love. The cross demonstrates Christâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love. And, the cross is Christâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s call to Christians: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whoever wants to be My disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and

follow Me.â&#x20AC;? How? We follow Jesus through sacrificial love for others. We are to serve others as we are able; giving of our time, energy, money and our very selves, even when it is undeserved and inconvenient. The Apostle Peter wrote â&#x20AC;&#x153;(Jesus) Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness.â&#x20AC;? We sing, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I will cling to the old rugged cross, and exchange it some day for a crown.â&#x20AC;?

Iron Chef of America: Mario Rizzotti, brings national Italian food tour to Tesora Restaurant The widely popular Tesora Restaurant in Siren served as host to internationally acclaimed Food Network Iron Chef America Judge and Italian Culinary Expert Mario Rizzotti this past week. Rizzotti brought his “4 the Love of Italian Food” tour to Tesora which serves to teach Americans how to eat healthy through authentic, Italian cuisine. The tour visits a different state every month, and within each state, tours through “4 cities, 4 restaurants, in 4 days.” Tesora was selected for its outstanding reputation of offering a top-notch dining experience.
The humble and sociable Rizzotti was the source of laughter, education and charm as he explained to guests how to distinguish authentic, Italian products from fake, and how incorporating these ingredients into their diet every day can improve their overall health. He explained the work of the chef is mental as he looked around the kitchen filled with young, aspiring cooks all milling about preparing for the night ahead. Tsora employees played a heavy hand in the preperation of the food and also serving. More than 100 people attended the dinner which proved to be a lusious four-
course meal paired with wine. Guests were even taught how to taste test olive oil after Rizotti explained a large percentage of extra virgin olive oil sold in the U.S. is not really extra virgin and may not even be made from olives. It could be loaded with fillers, like partially hydrogenated soybean oil, a trans-fat that can do more harm than good. Of Siren, Rizzotti said, “I love the nature and the quiet area.” Congratulations, Tesora on a successful, and prideful event!
