The US is just doing what it does best: being a bully.
How in the fuck did this random statement merit a 5 insightful? Where are the facts? Maybe it would be better phrased as, "In my asshole-trendy-US-hating-left-wing-Hugo-Chavez-cock-sucking opinion, the United States is best at bullying. I further contend that the Taliban are a sweet and wonderful people who value freedom, education, and free speech in all shapes and forms." Slashdot would mod up Adolf Hitler as long as he were anti-American. (it's insightful, trust me, just like the parent).
* Add "Cut" as well as "Copy". There's a "Cut" option in the edit menu but it's always greyed out. If there's some obscure option key that will enable this, well...
Cut works perfectly well. It's only grayed out when it's not applicable. Highlight something on this page that is not in a text box, cut will be grayed out, then reply to this comment, highlight some text, and cut and copy will both be available.
Even the best CPR circulates only a fraction of oxygenated blood to the brain. This study was performed under the old guidelines of 15 compressions to 2 ventilations. A theory proposed by the researchers who did the study is that the delay in properly positioning the patient's airway to provide ventilation actually decreased the effectiveness of the compressions. By the time the rescuer got blood flow going, it was time to stop and ventilate again. Perhaps with the current 30 compressions to 2 ventilations as now taught would change the outcome of the study. In any event, everyone who experiences cardiac arrest who is not successfully resuscitated dies of the same thing, anoxia, or lack of oxygen to the brain. Many people in cardiac arrest vomit, sometimes profusely. Layperson CPR really does not allow such a person to be properly ventilated, as the ventilations would most likely cause aspiration (the vomit entering the lungs). By doing adequate and continuous chest compressions, life saving oxygenated blood is delivered to the brain. This can keep the patient viable until professional rescuers arrive on the scene and are able to provide advanced life support such as defibrillation, intubation and cardiac drugs. Studies have repeatedly shown that early access to CPR and defibrillation provide the best chance for surviving cardiac arrest. Also note thought that this study involved adult patients who usually experience cardiac arrest due to cardiac related events such as heart attacks or lethal disrhythmias. Children usually experience cardiac arrest due to airway problems such as choking. So it is vital that ventilation attempts be made on children to determine whether or not they have a patent airway. If not the Heimlich maneuver should be initiated immediately, as the child's best chance of survival is restoration of a patent airway.
To keep this in historical context, in June 1987, the current version of Mac Office was version 4.2.1. It was a direct port of the Windows version and released in 1994. As such, it did not behave or look like a Mac application. By 1997 the age of the program and its poor reputation contributed to poor sales. Office 98 was certainly was under development, but had not yet been released at this point. Office 98 proved to be a successful release due to its feature set and mac-like interface. At the time of this email howerver, the success of both Office on the Mac and the Mac in general were very much in question. It also makes sense to test new features on the Mac version, which is geared much more for home use than its Windows counterpart.
