Britax recalls child safety seat for design defect

Letters are in the mail to registered owners of the Britax Decathlon child safety seat to alert consumersCarseat2 that a safety recall is underway for models built between Feb. 12, 2005 and July 31, 2007. At issue is a defect that allows the adjuster to pop out of position under certain circumstances. The letter to owners includes rivet fasteners to keep the adjuster in position.

The recall, conducted in concert with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), involves 121,109 units of model E9L47. Britax has gotten complaints from parents that the adjuster housing popped out of position when they were adjusting the harness. (The adjuster is used to tighten the harness around the child.) No deaths or injuries have been reported.

According to the notice, in certain circumstances the adjuster may move out of position making it difficult for caregivers to properly adjust the harness. Because of this, Britax is sending owners two rivet fasteners (plus an extra) that will secure the adjuster to the child restraint. Britax has set up a Web site for the recall, www.decathlonrecall.com, and is also featuring an instruction video on its site www.britaxusa.com.

Owners of the car seat who did not send in the registration card can call 800-683-2045 or register online at www.britaxusa.com. Even owners of the seat who have not experienced problems are strongly advised to make the repair.

Note: Consumer Reports listed the Britax Decathlon as an appropriate seat for obese children according to the manufacturer’s specifications.

Why the Israelis claim that they kicked hezbollah 30 miles in 2006?

Question: Why the Israelis claim that they kicked hezbollah 30 miles in 2006?
In 2006 Israel wasn’t able to occupy the lebanese villages on the borders(bnet jbiel for example),to reach reach litani river that is 30 miles away from borders…..but they did the half the way to it from the nearest point Golan Heights that is 2.5 miles(between litani river and Golan) so it can claim it swapped the whole South of Lebanon.

for example this Israeli guy on Facebook:”Israel knocked hezbollah out and the “fearless fighters of Allah” ran like rabbits 30 miles across the Litany River. Just look at the map and salute the “heroic retreat”; 30 miles non-stop, in a hot Lebanon climate… More than a Marathon race!
The Ancient Spartans could envy the modern Muslims´capacity in running.”
but see on internet

War Collage in Washington said hezbollah fought Israel better than any Arab army.
and see in youtube the Israeli soldiers were running like chickens
And if Israel won 2006 it would occupied south lebanon and disarmed hezbollah

Answer:

Answer by God is the light
because israel think they are invincible and are clearly deluded.
