Hello all...
Although I cannot contribute anything about HVAC I can share some important information that could and often does save a life.
The AMA released these guidelines in October 2010.
Hopefully no one ever has to do CPR but just in case here is the latest update to the procedure.
If anyone has questions let me know. Thanks.
Here is a step-by-step guide for the new CPR:
1. Call 911 or ask someone else to do so.
2. Try to get the person to respond; if he doesn't, roll the person on his or her back.
3. Start chest compressions. Place the heel of your hand on the center of the victim's chest. Put your other hand on top of the first with your fingers interlaced.
4. Press down so you compress the chest at least 2 inches in adults and children and 1.5 inches in infants. ''One hundred times a minute or even a little faster is optimal," Sayre says. (That's about the same rhythm as the beat of the Bee Gee's song "Stayin' Alive.")
5. If you're been trained in CPR, you can now open the airway with a head tilt and chin lift.
6. Pinch closed the nose of the victim. Take a normal breath, cover the victim's mouth with yours to create an airtight seal, and then give two, one-second breaths as you watch for the chest to rise.
7. Continue compressions and breaths -- 30 compressions, two breaths -- until help arrives.

Elizabeth Edwards was a great woman, with i frikkn dick for a husband!
Bret,
your team lost another one!
I am sorry! Huge loss!
On many levels, it would seem that life for Elizabeth Edwards often fell short of expectations. As a mother, she endured the greatest tragedy a parent can conceive--the unexpected death of a much-loved child. As a wife, her high-profile marriage to a philandering husband dissolved in the full glare of the public eye, a situation made all the more difficult by the fact that at the time, Elizabeth herself was battling the breast cancer that claimed her life on December 7.

Even her disease, which was diagnosed in 2004 and seemed to be in remission for a time, returned in 2007, this time to stay. When she ended cancer treatment on December 6, she had been advised she had several weeks to live. Even that expectation fell short, as she died the following day.
It would be very easy to look at Edwards as a tragic figure, someone who just couldn’t catch a break in the things in life that really matter, i.e. family, love, health. Edwards, however, did not see herself--and would not let others perceive her--as tragic, but rather, as the title of her recent book indicates, resilient. When others would have crumpled under sorrow, humiliation, and excruciating pain, Edwards stood tall and fought on, ever determined, ever graceful, ever honestly.
Asshe herself said in an ABC interview: "I'm not going to get better, but I'm not just going to wait to die…that's not an alternative. You know, I want to spend the remainder of my days living--whatever description that is."
At the San Diego office of the Susan G. Komen Foundation, Sandy Rabourne says: “We breast cancer survivors call ourselves ‘warriors’, and I can honestly say that this week we lost one of our greatest warriors. We have so much respect for how she lived her life and how meaningful she made every day.”
That sentiment is echoed by the San Diego chapter of the American Cancer Society, which saw her as “a tremendous advocate for patients and as a very public role model for the type of courage that we see every day in so many of our patients who don’t get the recognition but fight just as hard. When someone as high-profile as Ms Edwards succumbs, it reminds us of all that needs to be done, and why we get up and go to work every day to fight this killer. We hope that Ms Edwards’ passing encourages others to get screened and to learn about early cancer detection, because in early stages of breast cancer, there can be a better than 90 percent survival rate with proper treatment.”
Of course, Edwards was not just about breast cancer and dealing with the aftermath of a spouse’s infidelity. She took a stance for whatever she believed to be right, and was an active participant in the political arena she shared with her husband during their marriage. She was John Edwards’ chief policy advisor during his presidential bid, and was instrumental in pushing him towards more liberal stances on subjects such as universal health care. She was an advocate for gay marriage, stating: "I don't know why someone else’s marriage has anything to do with me. I'm completely comfortable with gay marriage.” She also opposed the war in Iraq, and openly disagreed with her husband on both of these issues.
Elizabeth Edwards was a fighter. She stood her ground for many battles, but even the mightiest warriors need to rest at some point.
