In December 2012, we posted an OnSafety blog, warning of furniture, television and appliance-related tip-over incidents. At that time, CPSC reported nearly 350 deaths, most involving young children. Since then, more than 80 people have died when a dresser, TV, bookcase, table, appliance or other large item tipped over and fell on them. A new report from our staff indicates that 430 tragic deaths occurred between 2000 and 2013, and an estimated 38,000 annual injuries, many of which were serious, from 2011 through 2013.
In most of the incidents, a child was crushed by the product or struck on the head by the product. What is remarkable is the number of families who have turned tragedy into advocacy. Jackie Collas, a Philadelphia-area resident, is using social media to honor her son, Curren, and encourage parents to anchor their furniture. Lisa Seifert of Chicago created Shane’s Foundation to honor her precious son and to increase awareness, education and safety.

Just like people, dogs have their good days and bad days but for the 4.7 million dog bite victims each year, a dogs’ bad day can result in serious injury or even death. In 2012, State Farm® had 3,670 dog bite claims and paid more than $108 million as a result of dog bites.

Ist das Fahrzeugangebot der Marke SsangYong auch überschaubar, so ist es dennoch interessant und in ländlichen Gebieten längst kein Geheimtipp mehr. 2011 haben die koreanischen Allradspezialisten Ernst gemacht und sind auch hierzulande nach mehreren Versuchen gestartet. Interessant dabei die Strategie der Marke, setzt sie doch auf ein stetig wachsendes Netz kleiner Händler, die in ländlichen Gebieten auf Kundensuche gehen. Und neben günstigen Preisen und robusten Fahrzeugen hat man ihnen auch noch ein starkes Garantie-Argument mit an die Hand gegeben.
The average price of a hotel room around the world rose by 3% during 2012, compared with the previous year, according to the latest Hotels.com Hotel Price Index (HPI). The rate of increase has moderated when judged against the 4% rise in 2011 as the Eurozone’s problems pulled down the global average and slowed growth in the second half of the year.
