Offering round-the-clock available defibrillators is extremely important. In cities and urban areas, this can be solved in cooperation with hospitals, nursing homes, gyms or small shops. In the countryside, it is probably more about community centres and churches.

Once upon a time, Kyrgyzstan was the becon of light when it came to democratic stability in Central Asia. That's sadly not longer true, since the current regime tries to do everything in it's power to control the elections by arresting the oppositional leaders.

The theme tune of Swedish broadcaster Svt 1 between 1987 and 1995 opened and closed each TV show and were almost always on my old VCR tapes with Eurovision, Melodifestivalen, McGyver, Blackadder and more. I still think it's the best theme tune during the history of Svt.
