GREEN BAY - Everyone knows of the bitter rivalry between the Packers and Chicago Bears. But this time fans from both sides say it has gone too far.
It all started on Monday when a Chicago Bears Fan Page on Facebook posted this photo with the caption - "Like if You Agree The Packers Have The Worst Cheerleaders In The NFL. The picture is of Eagle River native Kaitlyn Collins. She decided it was time to speak up.
Wednesday, she posted a YouTube video thanking Bears fans who stood up for her while asking for an end to cyber bullying. She shared some of the hurtful posts as well as some of the positive ones. The video has already received nearly 10,000 views.
MINOCQUA - These plants may look pretty but they're taking over our rivers and lakes. Michele Sadauskas is Oneida County's Aquatic Invasive Species Coordinator. She is working to map and control the yellow iris, the plant you see here. She and two other conservation workers spent the day weeding Stacks Bay.
"They invade our wetlands. They're a really robust, aggressive plant. What they do is they crowd out our native species and make actually the wetland a lot less diverse," says Michele Sadauskas, Oneida County AIS Coordinator.
Removing yellow iris is a slow process. It takes three hours of work just to properly map and control 20 feet of shoreline.
MERRILL - Farmers in Lincoln and Langlade Counties may need to make a longer drive or call a different office for USDA services.
The Merrill Service Center will be temporarily split up between Rhinelander, Wausau, and Medford.
The Farm Service Agency will move to the Wausau Service Center and the Natural Resources Conservation Service will be relocated to the Rhinelander and Medford Centers.
