12.2.2012 - 1/4 - Mysterious Drownings / Nixon's Secrets
Mar 19, 2012
Mp3 www.4shared.com Guests: Kristi Piehl, Don Fulsom, Ken Gerhard Mysterious Drownings: During the first half of Sunday's show, Ian Punnett was joined by Emmy-award winning journalist, Kristi Piehl, who provided an update on the Smiley Face Killers and why she is now investigating mysterious drowning deaths. "Happily retired" from television journalism, Piehl explained that she now sees herself as an advocate for the victims' families rather than a reporter on the case. As such, she revealed that her study of police reports and work with forensic experts has led her to the conclusion that focusing on the graffiti found at the crime scene is a hindrance to solving these mysterious deaths. "It really is a detriment and really is holding the investigation back," she lamented, since the graffiti appears to provide no tangible clues about the nature of the crime. While Piehl downplayed the graffiti sometimes connected to these deaths, she stressed that there is a very real phenomenon taking place where young men are drowning under mysterious circumstances. "These drowning mysteries, they defy logic," she said, noting that the victims are being found fully clothed and still have their shoes and wallets. While Piehl conceded that one such death could be attributed to a demise by misadventure, the sheer number of similar cases demands closer scrutiny. "When it happens 100 times over 10 years and it's just happening in the winter and it's just happening in certain states," she ...

Feb 12, 2012
Dr. Michael J. Ackerman, Windland Smith Rice Cardiovascular Genomics Research Professor and Professor of Medicine, Pediatrics, and Pharmacology at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, discusses his article appearing in the October 2011 Issue of Mayo Clinic Proceedings on a relationship between victims of an otherwise unexplained drowning and a collection of genetic heart rhythm disorders known as the cardiac channelopathies. These findings have the potential to not only establish a genetic cause for the tragic drowning but to also significantly affect the health outcomes for the surviving family members.

Here you'll find information about our Long Island swim school, swimming lessons, events and specials, informative tips, articles and links to enlighten you about all aspects of swimming and water safety. For thousands of Long Islanders, swimming is an integral and enjoyable part of family activity; after all, we live on a beautiful island surrounded by water -- the perfect place to discover the joy, health benefits and wonders of swimming. As enjoyable as swimming is, it also needs to be taken very seriously. One look at recent drowning statistics makes this point very clear. Drowning is the leading cause of death in children between the ages of 1 and 5. Residential swimming pools account for 60 to 90% of drownings of children under 4, half of which occur at the child's own home. Children under 4 are also most likely to drown in hot tubs, spas and swimming pools. Drowning is the 2nd leading cause of injury-related death for children 1 to 14. Statistics like these clearly demonstrate that knowing how to swim is not a luxury, but a necessity and a parental responsibility. In 1984, when my wife Susan and I began the first Saf-T-Swim school in Bayshore, Long Island, we wanted to combine our love of swimming with respect for water safety and knowledge. Happily, that simple concept has helped Saf-T-Swim grow into New York's #1 swim school, with ten ...
