The following recalls have been announced:

_ About 125,000 alpine ski bindings, manufactured in Austria by Atomic Skis GmbH, because the heel housing can crack and cause the binding to release unexpectedly.

_ About 1,500 candle-powered carousels, manufactured in China and imported by Gardener's Supply Co. of Burlington, Vt. The candle holder is too close to the rest of the carousel, posing a fire hazard. The company has received three reports of carousels igniting, but no reports of injuries.
