[kcvl]

Anna Nicole Smith collapsed in her hotel room at the Hard Rock Cafe and Casino in Hollywood, Fla., and was rushed to a hospital on Thursday. A Hollywood, Fla., fire department spokesman told MSNBC TV that the actress was unresponsive when the rescue unit arrived on the scene.

Sources confirmed to Access Hollywood that Smith was transported to Memorial Regional Hospital shortly after 2 p.m. EST on Thursday. Access Hollywood also is reporting that Smith was intubated at the scene.

Officials told the Miami Herald, "it does not look good."

Does it seem odd to you PA that Trump would put himself out there so blatantly accusatory (without crossing the line) of Stern?

What if Trump has info that we don't know about? Like he, or maybe Hugh Hefner, have been working an independent investigation of their own? I dunno if these guys run in the same circles, but Hef didn't attend the FUNeral did he?

I don't believe ANY part of this story. Howard plays nice, nice when it suits him. Buyer Beware!!

You tilt the head back to open the airway and start mouth-to-mouth, with chest compressions in between .... and you first make certain there is no pulse. I found it interesting HKS is reported to check Daniel's neck for a pulse, sounds like he had looked some things up.

Sounds like one or more of the photo's subjects was not going to be available for the sitting.

I think we're more interested in nabbing Howard. Something isn't right. Two healthy people don't simply lie down and within 2 or 3 hours they're found dead.

There's a TIME element to their deaths that can't/shouldn't be ignored. Someone said that Howard had been gone a total of 2 hours but NO ONE has mentioned where he was. He had just arrived at the dock when he got the call. He was about 40 feet from his car and 5 miles from the hospital.

What chemical combination would kick in and cause death WITHIN two hours??

[Arizona Carolyn]

I think he is refreshingly honest and best of all he hates HKS.

I don't know where you dig these things up, but that was interesting. Thanks!

Time for the list again.

" Anyone here know how to do CPR??? '

The crash carts used in hospitals have a hard board that is quickly placed under the patient, so there will be a firm surface for efficient chest compressions.

" That MAY be a visual to the onset of rigor .."

I think Stern's goal was that he didn't want ANS to be discovered at the Hard Rock..until she was rock hard.

[Sacajaweau]

Another one of Howard's TMI MO. The norm would be too try to shake or call Daniel by name....and get help.

So was Howard checking to see if he was alive??? Or checking to make sure he's dead (again)....before calling for help.

Google: "rigor mortis", "Sierra-Sacarmento Valley EMS Agency" See definition and near the end...Special Information

Have you seen her on TV? She seems like a really nice person. I haven't seen anything more info on why he beat up a neighbor.

I have three cousins in the same family...two females and a male...all past the age of 48 now. My aunt and uncle, who raised them, were good people, especially my aunt. My family and I have always adored her....the "favorite aunt."

I believe my cousins might be about four years apart. The male has been a "know-it-all" alcoholic who is frequently in trouble....lives off women. I remember he was spoiled when younger. My aunt was so kind, and I think she doted on him too much.

One female is my best friend....an absolutely dear and most generous person. We travel a lot together, and she is so witty, I fall down laughing at her. We have sooooo much fun together. She's very kind and works hard for a living. Never asks for anything...always a giver...a very beautiful person.

>>>Then I saw a clip from the birth video and she had a canula in her nose - what would that be used for during a c-section? Some kind of gas, like nitrous, or something else?>>>

I know during all my csections, even though I had a spinal and not put to sleep, I was set up as if I could be put to sleep in a dime. For emergencies.

CPR IN THREE SIMPLE STEPS

CPR Techniques

[TexKat]

Professionally recognized standards of nursing also require that, in order to be effective, CPR must be performed with the patient prone and with a hard surface under the patient's back. CMS Ex. 22 at 17 - 18; CMS Ex. 23 at 13; CMS Ex. 26 at 6. If the patient is not prone there is a likelihood that aspirated substances will be re-ingested into the patient's lungs while chest compressions are performed. If a hard surface is not placed under the patient's back there is a likelihood that chest compressions will not be effective. In this case the prima facie evidence shows that Petitioner failed to heed these requirements. CPR was attempted on Resident # 1 while her upper body was elevated at a 45 degree angle. A CPR board was not placed under the resident.

>>>They get in some real bad digs against Virgie, and said that ANS claimed to have no family. She had no intention of going any place but the Bahamas. She loved boating. AND he said that she told his wife before she left for Florida....."If anything happens to me, the plane crashes.... you keep my baby, don't let anyone take my baby".>>>

Isn't that a coinky-dink.

Larry's chipmunk cheeks crack me up.

CPR - Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

CPR is a combination of artificial respiration and artificial circulation by means of external cardiac compression. CPR is almost always used in conjunction with mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. When the victim has no pulse ( check the pulse as described above), artificial circulation must also be provided by the rescuer without delay.

The victim must be on a hard surface, and his legs may be elevated eight to ten inches if this can be done without injuring him further or delaying the administration of CPR.

If you are alone, kneel by the victim's side and place the heel of your hand on the center of the chest one and one-half to two inches above the notch of the victim's sternum. Place your other hand on top of the first hand and, with arms straight and your shoulders directly above your hands, begin compressing the victim's chest one and one-half to two inches at the rate of about eighty times per minute. Keep your elbows straight and your fingers off the victim's chest; press only with the heel of your hand. Every fifteen compression's, stop and give two quick breaths (mouth-to-mouth) to provide artificial respiration, then resume compressions. CPR should not be interrupted for longer than five seconds. CPR is not easy, and it would be difficult to perform properly after only reading about it. Instructions here are only meant to renew what has already been learned.

CPR should be learned under competent supervision with hands-on experience gained in the learning. Take a class on CPR!! The life of a loved one may depend on it.
