Hands-Only CPR

I consider this as an essential post because this might be a big help for many. You will never know that maybe someday you will save a life unexpectedly. By the way, this featured article is from the American Heart Association, and this is really very helpful when you are about to give a Hands-Only CPR.
It would be a good idea particularly for medical workers to learn the hands-only CPR and using a new digital application as well.

Ashville's Revival of Historic Architecture

Ashville, North Carolina may be best known for its surrounding mountains which make up some of the East's tallest and most majestic peaks, but this city has also some striking buildings that have art deco architecture in the downtown historic district besides Miami.
The most impressive and readily recognizable is the Grove Arcade, which occupies a full city block on Page Avenue. The arcade is designed by Edwin Wiley Grove in 1929 as a public market and thrived until World War II. It now houses an array of galleries which are locally owned, shops, restaurants and businesses.

Other Art Deco buildings are the Ashville's city hall and the First Baptist Church, both designed by Douglas Ellington who popularized the art deco style after studying in Paris.

Situated on the busy Pack Square is the center of Ashville's recent renewal called Pack Place. It houses the Ashville Art Museum, Colburn Earth Science Museum, The Health Adventure Children's Museum and Diana Wortham Theatre, which gives visitors the chance to see 20th-21st century art, hands-on exploration witht he human body and mind, and can even enjoy performances by professional art groups.

You can explore the downtown district's architecture on the Ashville Urban Trail by visiting the Pack Place to get some maps, or you can drop by at Ashville Visitor Center or Ashville Art Council for a walking tour exploring 30 sculptures depicting the city's history.
Among tour highlights is the Thomas Wolfe Memorial on Market Street.

One block after the Broadway are antique galleries, bookstores and restaurants serving everything from sushi to pastries. There is also the Mast General Store where shoppers can splurge on barrel candy and shop for outdoor clothing in a 1940s general store setting.

Eyeglasses At Cheaper Prices

Today's economy has been chaotic. Many consumable items and basic commodities that are considered important in our daily living are almost doubling in prices. Health insurances, medical and hospital bills are soaring up high, and guess who suffers the most? People who earn meager incomes...those that only live one day at a time with a few bucks of earnings in a day!

And when we talk about health, specifically eye care, it is a sad fact that many people have suffered from bad eye illnesses just because they ignore eye check ups, for the reason that they can't even afford to buy a prescription eye glasses.

Truly, Zenni Optical have gone a long way helping many people get their discount eyeglasses. It is a perfect helper in today's difficult financial struggle.

I was able to watch a CNN video featuring Clark Howard, an HLN money expert who wrote a book titled "Living Large in Lean Times." This would actually be an interesting book to buy. (Where can I buy this?)
In the video, Zenni Optical was featured as one of the many examples from his book when it comes to saving by buying your eyeglasses from them.
I must agree, Mr. Howard really loves Zenni Optical. As an evidence, he is wearing his precription eyeglasses from Zenni Optical.
