FDA Drug Identification Service

I was surprised to discover this service. According to the FDA Drug Identification webpage:
"Division staff can identify drugs for you based on physical appearance (color, shape, size, etc.) and markings. Email DDI your drug description at druginfo@.fda.hhs.gov. 
We will identify drugs for you as soon as possible. However, please note that this is not an emergency service. In the case of an emergency, please contact the Poison Control Center 1-800-222-1222."

Be Vigilant - Drowning Is Silent

I was surprised to learn that people who are drowning are actually very quiet, and don't wave their arms above water, according to this Medical News Today article, Do You Know What Drowning Looks Like?

Bottomline, when things get very quiet, you must be vigilant. People drowning aren't likely to be able to shout or wave for help.

Have fun this Summer, be safe, and be vigilant.
