    More than 7 million candles recalled for fire risk
    1 hr 59 mins ago


    WASHINGTON – More than 7 million candles are being recalled because of concerns the cup holding the candle could melt or catch fire.

    The Consumer Product Safety Commission says the tea lights were sold under the Chesapeake Bay Candle and Modern Light brand names.

    They were sold at Home Goods, Target, Wegmans and other stores nationwide between July 2009 and February 2011.

    The CPSC says the candles have a clear plastic cup that can melt or ignite, posing a fire and burn hazard.

    The importer, Pacific Trade International Inc. of Rockville, Md., has received one report of the plastic cup melting while in use.

    No injuries or property damage have been reported.

    Consumers can call the company at 800-331-8339 for more information or visit its website at http://www.chesapeakebaycandle.com.

    In this image released by the Consumer Product Safety Commission children play in water walking balls. The government is warning people not to use those giant see-through inflatable spheres known as 'water walking balls' because of the risk of suffocation or drowning

    Here they are called "Hamster Balls" usually an amusement park "ride" ... the kids walk on the water in them and bounce into each other. Usually only two or three are out at a time... and an attendant is present.
