June 02, 2016 – – Trans-unsaturated fatty acids, commonly referred to as trans fats or trans fatty acids, are a type of industrially produced vegetable fat that was introduced into the food system in the 1950’s. There are not generally found in nature, but are artifically created to provide a cheap stable source of fat for the commercial food industry. They are used in many packaged products, including margarine, baked goods, and microwave popcorn.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has determined that trans fats are ‘not generally recognized as safe‘, and has banned their use in foods. However, food manufacturers have until 2018 to remove all trans fats from their products, meaning that most microwave popcorn bags may still contain high levels of trans fats as well as hydrogenated oils and chemical flavorings and preservatives.

One company is offering a solution to this problem for people who want to eliminate trans fats from their diets and still enjoy microwave popcorn – the Microwave Popcorn Popper from Cestari Kitchen.

Susan MacDowell from Cestari Kitchen says: “We now know that trans fats are bad for us. Thus, if we want to be healthy we need to avoid those microwave popcorn bags. This does not mean, however, that we can no longer enjoy the taste of microwave popcorn. Our microwave popcorn maker quickly makes tasty popcorn without the unhealthy fats and additives.”

The Cestari Kitchen microwave popcorn popper enables people to turn a quarter cup of regular kernels into light and fluffy, tasty popcorn without the need for artificial additives or chemicals. It takes just two and a half minutes to complete popping the kernels. There is no need to preheat the popper, or engage in any other special preparation. It’s simple to use, easy to clean, and folds for storage. Furthermore, it has been designed to provide even heating so that more kernels are popped.

Consumers are pleased that they have an alternative to commercial popcorn bags. Some of the comments received include:

*”Not crazy about mcrowave commercial bagged popcorn because of the funny aftertaste. Glad this worked perfect” (Customer, May 2016)

*”I do feel better about it versus the microwave popcorn bags… I can control the ingredients.” (Brett, May 2016)

*”We really enjoy this popper. It is a much healthier alternative to prepackaged microwave popcorn.” (Robert, April 2016)

*”I also really like how you control how much oil. Most bag popcorns have too much oil and all “the gross stiff” as my kids say.” (Mako, November 2015)

The Cestari Kitchen Microwave Popcorn Maker is 100% food grade FDA approved silicone and BPA free. It’s available currently on Amazon.

June 02, 2016 – – LipsigLawyers.com’s Tom Moverman commented recently on the ceremony held on Workers’ Memorial Day to honor fallen construction workers. One of the workers who was honored was an Air Force veteran whose family has pursued a lawsuit against his former employers.

The plaintiffs, in this case, have alleged that the man’s death was completely preventable and that the developers failed to implement labor laws and building code regulations. The accident took place when the worker attempted to jump from a lift which had broken down between floors. He failed to jump to safety and fell 24 stories down the elevator shaft.

This man isn’t the only worker who had a hard hat as a symbol at the ceremony. From the beginning of 2016 to April of 2016, 17 construction workers have died on the job. The family and friends who attended are hoping to bring attention to the work that individuals and groups are doing throughout the state to advocate for safer construction sites. According to OSHA, if employers worked hard to implement safety measures which would eliminate the “Fatal Four” accidents, they would save the lives of 508 American workers every year. Of the four most common accidents which make up this category, falls account for nearly 40% of all fatalities on construction sites.

Lawsuits filed by the victims of construction accidents or a loved one alleging that an employer failed to enforce proper safety standards on the job site are far more common than they should be. The attorneys at Lipsig, Shapey, Manus, & Moverman P.C. have represented thousands of construction workers since first opening their doors in 1989 and they hope that with each successful verdict or settlement they are sending a message to the defendant that will result in increased safety.

In one recent case, the firm was able to obtain compensation for a man who fell from a defective scaffold and was diagnosed with a lumbar disc herniation which required surgery. At the end of a trial, the jury awarded the plaintiff $8,000,000.

For more information about a victim’s legal rights after a construction accident, contact an attorney at (646) 846-4496.

June 02, 2016 – – TheProductLawyers.com reports on a hearing convened by the U.S. Judicial Panel for Multidistrict Litigation (JPML) addressing a request by a group of plaintiffs dated October 2015. The plaintiffs all allege that they or loved ones used Xarelto and had suffered from dangerous uncontrollable bleeding while taking the blood thinner. The group requested to have the over 2,800 similar cases to be litigated as a group since all were filed against the same defendants and possessed very similar allegations.

In a decision dated December 12, 2015, the consolidation was granted by the panel and it appointed U.S. District Judge Eldon E. Fallon of the Eastern District of Louisiana to oversee the federally-filed cases. The panel stated that Judge Fallon was willing and able to preside over the Multidistrict Litigation (MDL) and had the experience necessary to monitor a multidistrict litigation process. It also concurred that given the number of cases involving the same defendants with similar claims against them, that such informal coordination of the multitude of pending cases was impractical.

Since the multidistrict consolidation was announced the number of cases has escalated and is expected to continue to increase while the cases involved in the initial MDL await trial. The consolidation process will facilitate a much more streamlined litigation process since it will allow for non-duplicative discovery processes and having to deal with numerous conflicting rulings by different judges across the country. The MDL will also lessen overall litigation costs and the time spent by the parties involved to prepare for each individual case.

Defendants in all of the consolidated cases include Bayer AG and the subsidiary of the Johnson and Johnson Corporation, Janssen Pharmaceuticals. Since the defendants are located in New Jersey, they were opposed to the consolidation of the cases in the Southern District of Illinois and asked that the cases be transferred to New Jersey.

The attorneys of Banville Law, the firm behind TheProductLawyers.com, are offering complimentary consultations to anyone who suffered injury or hospitalization after a bleed while on Xarelto. For more information about this release or the Xarelto litigation call 888-997-3792.

June 02, 2016 – – HF Coors, a business in Tucson, AZ, which is known as the best kept secret in dinnerware manufacturers in the country, is proud to have been featured on the Edible Baja Arizona website.

Dirck Schou, President of HF Coors says: “We are so proud to have been featured in Edible Baja Arizona. It highlights one of our proudest moments, which was when a huge fire tore through a pine forest, destroying hundreds of structures and yet one of our dinner sets survived falling three stories in a burning home.

Naturally, we won’t tell you how we do it, but we will tell you that we will continue to implement our company secrets in any product we make.”

Every part of the dinnerware sets, bowls, and other products are made in the USA, because the company supports the local economy as part of its overall philosophy.

The HF Coors products have been very positively received by their many clients. “So proud to have HF Coors in Tucson,” says Claudio O-T on the company’s Facebook page. “The customer service from all the staff (Beverly, Contessa to name a few) have always taken the time to welcome me to the Potters Sale on 1st Saturday of the month. The sales have been amazing and the treasure hunting the best. I have been attending these sales for over a year now and keep going back to see what is new.”
