INTERESTING TIMES

I can't tell you how many times I've been taught the Heimlich maneuver in CPR and first aid classes. Plenty. Well over 20 years worth of certifications and re-certifications. So I've been trained. In my last recert (2009) we were taught back slaps for infants, and they called the uncorking procedure used on adults "abdominal thrusts". It seems that pretty much everybody knows about the Heimlich maneuver. ( But maybe there are better emergency treatments for choking. At the very least, there are options. )

including: AMOEBAE, FLAGELLATED PROTOZOA and SPOROZOA
