The
Heart: An Online Exploration
http://sln.fi.edu/biosci/heart.html
You've got one, but how much do you really know about it?
This site, part of The Franklin Institute Online, takes you to the heart
of the matter...the human heart, that is. You can explore what the heart
is made up of, how it works, how it affects all other areas of the body,
the history of
heart science, and more. There's no fancy computer animation here--just
the facts, plain and simple.

Dr. Werning man of the year, saying his paramedics already had saved
dozens of lives

EMS News -hand scanned
EMSNetwork News now delivers the headlines to your email.
Perfect for those who like to keep up on the EMS news but are short
on time. Rarely the full news, just the headlines so you can decide
if visiting the news page is worth your time that day.
Published at least 5 days a week, and usually they hit all seven
days.
The news site is in two sections; General news and Response!
Response! Is geared towards the articles related to actual 911 calls
and responding. A large number of newspapers have allowed them to
use article photo thumbnails along with the text link to the news
story. A nice feature offered in both sections.
The site has just started developing an accompanying
"Commentators" area. A team of commentators will tackle
the news, the media and other items of newsworthy interest.
If you are interested in signing up for the headlines email list,
details are at the site. You can sign up at the
site.
