Samsung GALAXY NOTE 7 RECALL - FIRE HAZARD Town of Prosper Fire Department 1500 E. First Street P.O. Box 307 Prosper, Texas 75078 (972) 347-2424 Phone (972) 347-3010 Fax Samsung GALAXY NOTE 7 RECALL - FIRE HAZARD The Samsung Galaxy Note 7 has been officially recalled by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), as of Thursday, September 15, 2016. According to the CPSC, the recall is due to recent reports of serious fire and burn hazards. The announcement follows last week's Consumer Product Safety Commission warnings that users should stop using the devices and turn them off because of the threat of a battery fire. In the Galaxy Note 7 smartphones purchased between Aug. 2016 and Sept. 15, 2016, the lithium-ion batteries from a certain supplier can overheat and catch fire. Samsung has received 92 reports of the batteries overheating in the U.S., including 26 reports of burns and 55 reports of property damage, including fires in cars and a garage, the agency said in a statement. Users seeing signs of charring or overheating on their phones should contact CPSC and Samsung, and any necessary emergency services, according to CPSC. Following the recall, the U.S. Department of Transportation and the Federal Aviation Administration have issued an order for airline passengers not to bring Samsung Galaxy Note 7 phones on planes unless they keep them turned off and don't charge them during the flight. Consumers can contact the wireless carrier, retail outlet or Samsung.com where you purchased your device to receive free of charge a new Galaxy Note 7 with a different battery, a refund or a new replacement device.

The morning was usual until I read “The death of Samsung Galaxy Note 7”. I was thwarted as my husband had pre-booked the phone, as a gift for our 6th wedding anniversary. Although, the rumours were prevalent about the problems in Note7, but like every Indian, I had preferred to stay hopeful until last. The article in Indian Express read: I.

Using the perspectives of generic frames, issue-specifi c frames, cross-national frames, and user sentiment on Twitter, this study analyzes 600 posts (200 from each nation). Results reveal that Twitter posts frequently framed the crisis using attribution, morality, and confl ict frames. Posts about the explosion were more professional frame oriented than national frame oriented. Negative sentiment was dominant in Twitter posts about the explosion. Morality, corporate breakdown, and customer concerns were highly associated with negative sentiment. The results demonstrate how global users respond to a corporate crisis. Study implications and suggestions are discussed. KEYWORDS: Samsung Galaxy Note 7 explosion; crisis framing; social media sentiment A corporate crisis shapes the reputation of the corporation aff ected, public opinion regarding the corporation, and the economy of the nation where the crisis occurs (An & Gower, 2009).

  • Theme 1 Answers Chapter 1 Case Study
    THEME 1 ANSWERS CHAPTER 1 CASE STUDY: MARS AND BANCO SANTANDER 1. Suggest two raw materials that might be used by Mars. Answers may include: cocoa, sugar, milk, dried fruit, nuts and wrapping materials. 2. Suggest two examples of different workers that might be employed by Mars. Answers may include: factory workers, machine operators, production line workers, supervisors, managers or quality inspectors. 3. Suggest two services that might be provided by Banco Santander. Answers may include: the provision of current accounts, insurance policies, loans and overdrafts, credit cards or savings accounts. 4. Discuss in groups the possible reasons why Mars may use more machinery in its operations than Santander. The provision of services such as banking often requires more people in production. This is because the service industry often involves carrying out tasks for customers that are likely to be done by people. In contrast, Mars is a manufacturer and many of its products are produced on production lines in highly automated factories. Most of the processes used to make chocolate bars, including wrapping and packaging, can be carried out by machines. The use of labour is not significant in relation to the amount of machinery. However, with more and more people using online banking, the numbers of people employed in the provision of financial services is falling. An increasing number of financial services can be provided online with a small amount of contact between bank employees and customers. ACTIVITY 1 CASE STUDY: JINDAL STEEL AND POWER 1. What is meant by the term manufacturing? One important aspect of production is manufacturing.
