keriazJoined: 9/02/06 Posts: 1719 | Posted: 1 years ago Thats a great program but NOTHING will take the place of adult supervision. Every sort of program that will teach your child to survive is wonderful and I wish more parents would do it. A few days ago a 2 yr old girl in Mesa fell into the swimming pool for the second time this year!! They had a doggie door that was built into the pool fence. And we need to remember that when they say on the news a near drowning doesnt nessassarily mean that child is normal they may be alive but they might be stuck on a ventalator or brain damaged. Please keep your eyes on your children. They are crafty little things! Great to have around but they are Houdini's. I have yet to go on a drowning call and I really dont want to.

keriazJoined: 9/02/06 Posts: 1719 | Posted: 1 years ago Mattel, the World's Largest Toy Maker, Recalls 800,000 More Toys Because of Lead PaintNEW YORK (AP) -- Mattel Inc.'s reputation took another hit after the world's largest toy maker announced a third major recall of Chinese-made toys in little more than a month because of excessive amounts of lead paint. The latest action, which involved about 800,000 toys and which was announced late Tuesday, is yet another blow to Mattel. The news, along with other recent recalls of tainted Chinese toys from other toy makers, could also make parents even more nervous about shopping for toys this holiday season. The recall also included 90,000 units of Mattel's GeoTrax locomotive line and about 8,900 Big Big World 6-in-1 Bongo Band toys, both from the company's Fisher-Price brand. The Big Big World products were sold nationwide from July through August of this year, while the GeoTrax toys were sold from September 2006 through August of this year. Mattel's last recall, announced on Aug. 14, covered about 19 million toys worldwide. They included Chinese-made toys that either had excessive amounts of lead paint or had small magnets that could easily be swallowed by children. On Aug. 1, Mattel's Fisher-Price division said it was recalling 1.5 million preschool toys featuring characters such as Dora the Explorer, Big Bird and Elmo because of lead paint. That action included 967,000 toys sold in the United States between May and August. Robert Eckert, chairman and chief executive of El Segundo, Calif.-based Mattel, warned at a press conference last month that there may be more recalls of tainted toys as the company steps up its investigations into its Chinese factories and increases monitoring of production. In a statement issued late Tuesday, Eckert said: "As a result of our ongoing investigation, we discovered additional affected products. Consequently, several subcontractors are no longer manufacturing Mattel toys. We apologize again to everyone affected and promise that we will continue to focus on ensuring the safety and quality of our toys." Mattel added that it has completed its testing program for the majority of its toys and spent more than 50,000 hours investigating its vendors and testing its toys over the past four-week period. Still, Mattel, which has cultivated an image of tightly controlling production in China, could face an uphill battle convincing consumers about the safety of its products this holiday season. The CPSC is also considering a possible investigation of whether Mattel notified authorities as quickly as it should have in connection with the Aug. 14 recall. With more than 80 percent of toys sold worldwide made in China, toy sellers are also concerned shoppers will shy away from their products in this year's holiday season. In June, toy maker RC2 Corp. voluntarily recalled 1.5 million wooden railroad toys and set parts from its Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway product line. The company said the surface paint on certain toys and parts made in China between January 2005 and April 2006 contains lead, affecting 26 components and 23 retailers. In July, Hasbro Inc. recalled faulty Chinese-made Easy Bake ovens, marking the second time the iconic toy had been recalled this year. A Chinese quality official said Wednesday that the country is investigating the latest recall. Wang Xin, an official with the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection, and Quarantine, said the agency, which oversees all products made in China, is trying to get details on when the toys were made and the manufacturers involved. Mattel vowed as recently as last month it would tighten its controls at factories in China. About 65 percent of the company's toys are made in China, and about 50 percent of Mattel's production there is produced in company-owned plants. The recalled toys in the Barbie accessory line included a Barbie Dream Puppy House, which had lead paint on the dog; a Barbie Dream Kitty Condo playset, which had lead paint on the cat; and a Barbie table and chairs kitchen playset, which had lead paint on the dog and dinner plates. Mattel said in a statement that the Barbie products affected by the recall were produced by Holder Plastic Company, a Mattel contract vendor, which subcontracted the painting of miniature toy pets and small furniture pieces to Dong Lian Fa and Yip Sing. Both companies used uncertified paint and are no longer producing toys for Mattel, the company said. Mattel added that its probe revealed that the subcontractors painted the affected toys between March 2007 and August 2007. However, Mattel said it's being cautious in recalling the entire production of the seven toys painted by the subcontractors, and toys made beginning in October 2006 are included within the recall. Among the three Fisher-Price toys recalled are two GeoTrax toys and a toy from the Big Big World line. The two GeoTrax toys were made by Apex Manufacturing Company Ltd., one of Mattel's contract vendors, which outsourced paint work to a subcontractor, Boyi Plastic Products Factory. Apex supplied Boyi with certified paint; however, the toys were made with uncertified paint. Boyi is no longer in business, Mattel said. The GeoTrax toys were manufactured between July 31, 2006, and September 4, 2006; however, the painted parts were stored and incorporated into toy production throughout the year. Mattel said it is recalling toys shipped between August 3, 2006, and July 31 of this year. Fisher-Price's Big Big World toy was manufactured by Shun On Factory, one of Mattel's contract vendors, which outsourced the molding and painting of one plastic piece. A subcontractor, Jingying Tampo Printing Processing Factory, used uncertified paint on the recalled piece.

keriazJoined: 9/02/06 Posts: 1719 | Posted: 1 years ago Everyone has hit the nail on the head with this one. Keep in mind about the possiblitly of you havin a large baby. I sure did. I keep sayin I didnt have kids but I had elephants! LOL. My son was 9lb 1oz and my daughter was 8lbs 8oz. So those cute little newborn stuff never fit. Keep in mind that they grow like little weeds so dont over do it with the expensive stuff even if its cute. Wont last long. We went to garage sales when I was pregnant with both my kids. Cheapest route. Solamente el fuertes sobreviven - Only the Strong Survive! | |

keriazJoined: 9/02/06 Posts: 1719 | Posted: 1 years ago Great article! I hope and pray I never get breast cancer. I am begining to think tho that most people only think of breast cancer or prostate cancer. There are tons of different types of cancer. I have suffered with Non-hodgkins lymphoma this year and it has been a serious challenge for me and my family. Mine just kinda snuck up on me without me realizing it. My only symptom was me being tired all the time. I thought nothing of it cause my job requires me to work 24 hrs and sometimes I dont get to sleep. I am hoping that I am cured but wont know for another couple of weeks. Cancer of any sort is a terrifying thing to go through. Just realize that there are other cancers out there besides breast cancer. Solamente el fuertes sobreviven - Only the Strong Survive! | |
keriazJoined: 9/02/06 Posts: 1719 | Posted: 1 years ago No I dont think you are over reacting at all! You never know what might have happened. I would find out too. There are many different things that could have happened while at school ranging from a bully all the way to a simple accident. It is best to let the teacher at least to know what happened and to kinda keep an eye out for her to make sure no one is hurtin your child.

keriazJoined: 9/02/06 Posts: 1719 | Posted: 1 years ago I clearly remember that day like it happened yesterday. I was on my way to work as a school bus driver early that morning and I had a local radio station on 98KUPD listening to music. The DJ was talking about an airplane hitting the towers. I thought this is one sick joke they were playing. I remember sitting at a red light and had my windows down and the guy next to me said "Can you beleive this sh**?" I looked at him and said no. I continued heading into work and drove my first route taking the high school kids to school. I had the radio on in the bus listening to it all. Those kids were the quietest I have ever heard. When they all got off I called my hubby and told him to turn on the TV cause planes have hit the towers and I wanted to know if it was true. He said yes and we both just sat there stunned. I completed the next two routes and headed back to the yard where I went in to see this all on TV myself. They kept playing the airplane hitting the tower over and over. Kinda of surrel really! I had to work yesterday so I couldnt do any rememberence. I normally have a candle burining at night and a flag flying until the candle burns completely out. My company had a moment of silence at 8am. Solamente el fuertes sobreviven - Only the Strong Survive! |
