Old and new members joined the “regulars” gathered at the August meeting of
Up North Authors Circle (UNAC) held on August 12 at the Lakewood Library.
Ten published and soon-to-be-published writers filled the room with captivating
stories and stimulating literary conversation.
Back were Gary Adkins and Phil Adamczyk; new members included Rhoda
Ebersole and Denis Gullickson, a Green Bay author who summers at the Gin-
gerbread House near Camp Lake. Denis stated that he has been reading about
UNAC for years and finally decided to check out the group. He recounted his
success in writing two books about the Green Bay Packers, then turned to de-
scribe his latest work, “The Monfils Conspiracy: The Conviction of Six Inno-
cent Men,” which is due out in two weeks.
This very inspirational meeting ended as Tom Thielke shared the status of marketing for his new book, “A History of Lakewood.”
As the meeting concluded, several members who vacation in the area said “so long” and expressed dismay that they will not be able
to attend again until next summer.

It's best to avoid sodas, energy drinks and other high-sugar drinks right before the event because the high sugar content can cause
stomach cramps and nausea during strenuous game activity. Outside of sports time, the preferred beverage to relieve and prevent
thirst is water as well.
Some parents find it helpful to mark lines on kids' drink bottles as a guide to help them drink enough throughout the game or prac-
tice. By half-time, for example, they should have consumed half of their water. Some professionals recommend weighing your child
before and after a sports event. Weight lost in such a short time is fluid loss, and your child can re-hydrate by drinking one cup of
water for every half-pound lost. Weighing also helps you learn
how much fluid is needed for your young athletes to stay prop-
erly hydrated.

Two Additional Infant Deaths Prompt Re-announcement of Simplicity “Close-Sleeper/Bedside Sleeper” Bassinets
Consumers urged to immediately stop using the 3-in-1 and 4-in-1 bassinets, including those with Graco logo and “Winnie the
Pooh” motifs
WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is once again urging all parents and caregivers to
immediately stop using convertible "close-sleeper/bedside sleeper" bassinets manufactured by Simplicity Inc., of Reading, Pa. CPSC
has learned of two additional infant deaths since the August 2008 safety alert and recall announcements that notified consumers of
two infants who had strangled in their Simplicity bassinets. To date, CPSC is aware of four infants who have died in the close-sleeper
bassinets.
CPSC learned that in September 2008, a two-month old female in Demorest, Georgia suffocated when she rolled into the adjustable
fabric siding of the bassinet, pressing her face into a "pocket" which formed near the Velcro© fasteners. In another incident in Janu-
ary 2009, a six-month old female in Fort Worth, Texas appears to have been fatally entrapped in the bassinet’s bar opening created
when the Velcro© fasteners were not secured. An investigation into this infant’s death is ongoing.
In addition, CPSC has received two separate reports involving a 10-week old and a 3-month old whose heads became entrapped be-
tween the lower bassinet bar and the mattress support. The infants were freed by their caregivers without injury.
The Simplicity 3-in-1 and 4-in-1 convertible bassinets, including bassinets with the Graco logo and “Winnie the Pooh” motif li-
censed by Disney Consumer Products, contain metal bars that are covered by an adjustable fabric flap. This fabric flap is secured by
Velcro© fasteners, which are intended to be partially removed when the bassinet is converted into the bedside/close-sleeper mode. If
the Velcro© fasteners are not properly re-secured when the fabric flap is adjusted, or if the consumer entirely removes the fabric flap
October ISSUE DEADLINE FOR ADS AND
exposing the metal bars, an infant can slip through the opening between the lower metal bar and the mattress support and become
entrapped and suffocate or strangle. Consumers are urged to check their bassinets to ensure they are not using one of the recalled
Simplicity bassinets.
Parents and caregivers are advised to return these bassinets to the retail store where they were purchased. All of the recalled bassinets
can pose a danger to infants.
To determine whether your bassinet has been recalled, please check for the model number and the manufacture date code pictured
below. Bassinets manufactured prior to 21st week of 2008, “2108” (before May 18) are recalled. The model numbers for recalled
bassinets manufactured prior to “2108” are: 3000, 3010, 3011, 3012, 3013,

Due to the life-threatening hazard these bassinets pose to infants, CPSC urges all consum-
ers to share this safety warning with friends, family, day care centers, and consignment
stores to ensure that no child is placed to sleep in a Simplicity convertible bassinet covered
by this warning.

Striving to Improve Reading by Amy Wysocki
During the week of July 6-10th, I had the opportunity to learn and work with some extraordinary teachers.
If your child is lucky enough to be attending the Wabeno Area
School District you may already know what a dedicated and
dynamic teaching staff works there. All but two teachers at the
Wabeno Elementary were able to attend a reading class called
the Comprehensive Literacy Model Institute held in Pembine.
That includes teachers from 4 year old Kindergarten all the way
though 6th Grade, and we were lucky enough to also have our
junior high English teacher, a few support staff, our principal,
and our administrator attend. The teachers and administrators
are continually working to improve teaching, and in the next
few years how reading and writing is taught at the Wabeno
Area School District will be changing. If you get the opportu-
nity, talk with your child's teacher on how you can help our
children become better readers.

The May 21-23, 2010 events – LZ Lambeau: Welcoming Home Wisconsin’s Vietnam Veterans –
will feature a special evening celebration inside Green Bay’s Lambeau Field that will honor and thank
Wisconsin’s Vietnam Veterans, while offering a warm welcome home that many never received.
“On behalf of the State of Wisconsin, I am proud to invite Wisconsin’s Vietnam Veterans, Vietnam Era
Veterans and their families to an important celebration at Lambeau Field in May 2010,” Gov. Jim Doyle
wrote in a welcoming letter. “We owe our nation’s veterans – and those who are serving in Iraq, Af-
ghanistan, and other parts of the world today – a debt of gratitude that cannot be repaid. But what we can
do is keep the promises we made to them and always honor their service and sacrifice. LZ Lambeau:
Welcoming Home Wisconsin’s Vietnam Veterans will serve as a fitting tribute to Wisconsin’s brave
men and women who sacrificed greatly in service to our country.
The ceremony will honor those who were killed in action and those still missing and listed as unaccounted for from the Vietnam
War.” Named for the Landing Zones that Vietnam Veterans were often deployed to and inspired by the interviews with Vietnam
veterans from the forthcoming Wisconsin Vietnam War Stories documentary project, LZ Lambeau is a partnership of The Wiscon-
sin Department of Veterans Affairs, the Wisconsin Historical Society and Wisconsin Public Television, along with an exten-
sive group of veterans organizations statewide.
The Saturday, May 22, 2010 evening event in Lambeau Field will feature special speakers, recognition, music and premiere seg-
ments from the Wisconsin Vietnam War Stories documentary.
