Contact Information

NRTI as we knew it is no more, and I don't know what will happen in the future. Technically, I'm still employed by the College, though am enjoying a paid hiatus, and working on everything I couldn't work on when I was spending 70 hours a week running the Program, like cleaning up from the tornado that hit, what, 7 years ago now? I'm also commissioned with a nearby county agency, actually answering to one of the more popular instructors, so I'm still trying to keep my hand in.

I'll continue to post information and news from grads and friends, and also want to keep current with LE news and references.

My College phone and e-mail are pretty much out of service, so I'll be setting up yet another account , so we can stay in touch.

Seasonal Biotech Saves Child’s Life (NPS Digest)

Seasonal Biotech Saves Child’s Life (NPS Digest)
On Tuesday, June 12th, seasonal biotech Angela Trnka was patrolling for sea turtles and came upon a two-and-a-half year old unconscious child. The child, who was accompanied by his mother and two young siblings, apparently ran into the surf unexpectedly and was knocked down by a wave. During the time before his mother recovered him, he swallowed a substantial amount of seawater and lost consciousness. Trnka called for emergency assistance, performed infant/child CPR on him, and was able to clear the child’s airway and restore breathing. Her quick action and professional response, along with the assistance of the rangers who responded, undoubtedly saved the child’s life. Based upon follow-up stories in the local media, the child is apparently doing well and is recovering from the accident.
