Monroe-based La-Z-Boy is recalling some power supplies for its lift chairs out of concern that they may pose a shock hazard. The power supply's casing — a black, plastic, rectangular box about 6 inches by 3.5 inches by 3.5 inches — "can crack within the screw housing and break, causing the cover to detach and exposing the power supply’s electrical components," the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission explained on its website. At issue are approximately 2,500 sold across the U.S. at furniture stores and through the company's website  between September 2015 and November 2016  with Gold Series electric Lift Chairs, the Clayton Luxury-Lift (model 1HL562) and Power Lift (model 1ML562), and Luxury-Lift (models 1LF505 and 1LF819). In addition, these power supplies were in conversion kits for older lift chairs with models 1LL320, 1LL508, 1LL515, 1LM320, 1LM508 and 1LM515. The recall affects only power supplies with LOT #150113, which is printed on the back of the power supply along with the model name and number.

"No shocks or injuries have been reported and we want to ensure this continues to be the case as the safety and comfort of our consumers is our highest priority," company spokeswoman Kathy Liebmann told the Free Press in an e-mail. "We were told by a dealer that the top of the case came off, and we investigated." The power supplies cost an estimated $170 or were free as replacements for previously purchased life chairs, which help the sitter rise to a standing position.giant bean bag chair sewing pattern Another 210 were sold in Canada.louis style chairs wholesale People with these power supplies are advised to stop using them for the chairs and contact the company for free replacements.affordable pc gaming chair

Midwest Distribution Center, Bolingbrook, IL North East Distribution Center, Robbinsville, NJ Mid Atlantic Distribution Center, Odenton, MD South Florida Distribution Center, Sunrise, FL West Coast Distribution Center, Ontario, CA Southern Ohio Distribution Center, Columbus, OHCHICAGO — Comedian Andy Richter, who attended the high school where Dennis Hastert taught before entering politics, recalled on Twitter one of the more disturbing episodes of alleged misconduct by the former House speaker during his time as a high school wrestling coach and teacher. Federal prosecutors alleged in a court document filed Friday evening that Hastert abused or had inappropriate contact with at least five minor boys during his time at Yorkville High School, west of Chicago. Hastert taught at the high school for about 16 years before leaving in the early 1980s to launch his political career.

One of the victims, identified in court documents as "Individual D," told prosecutors that Hastert "put a 'Lazyboy'-type chair in direct view of the shower stalls in the locker room where he sat while the boys showered." Richter, a sidekick on Conan O'Brien's TV show on TBS, said in a series of posts on Twitter that he remembers the chair. "I went to Yorkville HS '80-'84 & I remember this chair. Purportedly 'to keep boys from fighting,'" Richter posted.
