  In 1787, the Humane Society advised members that blowing tobacco smoke up the victim’s bum could resuscitate “persons apparently dead from drowning”. Forget CPR and all that blowing air in the lungs and pumping the chest, the medic of the day should light a pipe and heed the words of René Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur (28 February 1683 – 17 October 1757), as laid out in his booklet Avis pour donner du secours à ceux que l’on croit noyez (Advice to aid those believed drowned). He takes readers through a variety of methods for raising the dead, including tickling their nose with feathers and filling a drowning man’s mouth with warm urine. Then we get to the Réaumur’s favoured technique: a blow back, in which the medic takes a long puff on their pipe tobacco, pushes the stem into the intestines via the rectum and exhales.   René Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur In 1747, English printmaker John Fougeron lampooned the treatment in an etching now at the British Museum (above). The accompanying inscription noted that the treatment was approved by the King of France’s physician: “On the shore of a river, a sailor blows smoke up the bottom of a woman who has drowned, while her husband and a small child look on.” Lest you suppose that Réaumur was fraud who had learnt his trade in a Philadelphia brothel, know that in 1708, at the age of 24, he was nominated by Pierre Varignon (who taught him mathematics) and elected a member of the prestigious Académie des Sciences, where he became prolific. In 1710, he became chief editor of the Descriptions of the Arts and Trades, a French government project which resulted in the establishment of manufactures new to France and the revival of neglected industries. In 1731 he became interested in meteorology, and invented the thermometer scale which bears his name: the Réaumur. He divided the fundamental interval between the ice and steam points of water into 80 degrees, fixing the ice point at 0 Degrees and the steam point at 80 degrees. Reaumur also made important discoveries in the fabrication of steel from iron, carried out experiments on the artificial incubation of eggs, and was an authority on the natural history of insects and the manufacture of tin ware. In 1735, for family reasons, he accepted the post of commander and intendant of the royal and military Order of Saint Louis. His friends took to calling him “the Pliny of the 18th century”, after the Roman author, naturalist, scientist, naval and army commander of the early Roman Empire.   Humane Society for the Recovery of Persons Apparently Dead by Drowning A man recuperating in bed at a receiving-house of the Royal Humane Society, after resuscitation by W. Hawes and J.C. Lettsom from near drowning. Watercolour by R. Smirke. The Humane Society in London (now The Royal Humane Society) was created in 1774 after Dutch physicians, inspired by Réaumur, established a society in The Netherlands, where canal drownings were too commonplace, offering educational information and paying “premiums to those who saved the life of a citizen in danger of perishing by water”. The success of this society encouraged similar social programs across Europe. In Britain, an English translation was commissioned by doctors William Hawes (28 November 1736 – 5 December 1808) and Thomas Cogan (8 February 1736 – 2 February 1818), who founded the Humane Society soon after, announcing “The Plan” in a 1774 pamphlet. The pamphlet begins: THE HUMANE SOCIETY was instituted in the year 1774, for the recovery of persons apparently drowned, and has, in the course of thirteen years, been the means of preserving and restoring the lives of eight hundred and ninety-seven persons who otherwise would, in all human possibility, have been lost to the community.   Blowing Tobacco Smoke Up The Fundament Much of the advice in the pamphlet 12-step guide to saving a drowned person is sage and well considered. However, Part 8 does stand out. VIII. Tobacco fumes should be thrown up the fundament ; if a fumigator be not at hand, the common pipe may answer the purpose. The operation should be frequently performed, as it is of importance; for the good effects of this process have been experienced in a variety of instances. But, should the application of tobacco-smoke in this way not be immediately convenient, or other impediments arise, clusters of this herb, or other acrid infusions with salt may be thrown up with advantage.     Via: Royal Humane Society, PDR, Wellcome The post Blowing Tobacco Smoke Up The Bum And Other Ways To Return The Dead To Life, 1787 appeared first on Flashbak.

Lambda's new raise was a solid beat over the amount that deal-watchers say it was hoping to hit.

If there was ever an example of a Zionist-occupied government, it is the united States, and not just under Donald Trump.  However, the Trump adminsitration seems to be about the most open Zionist-controlled administration in some time.  However, it’s the Zionism that is adancing the technocratic agenda, which Trump is spearheading. If you didn’t know …

He’s crushing it. With the 2025 CMA Awards taking place tomorrow at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, many of the artists have been doing tons of press leading up to the event, including Luke Combs. He’s up for Entertainer of the Year, Male Vocalist of the Year and Single of the Year for “Ain’t No Love In Oklahoma,” and he’ll also be performing. In addition to teasing new music and an album that will likely be released next year, Luke is gearing up for his My Kinda Saturday Night tour, and he recently just reached another huge milestone in his career. He broke Garth Brooks’ record as the most RIAA-certified country artist, with 168 million certified units compared to Brooks’ 162.5 million. This new record recognizes Combs’ total certified sales and streams for both albums and singles. Combs has 34 certifications in total, and he shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon… at just 35-years-old, he has plenty of time to continue that streak and make it that much harder for the next person to break it. And during an interview with Katie Neal of Audacy’s Katie & Company, he admitted that it was “unexpected,” and he didn’t really feel old enough to be breaking such a record… but it’s really a testament to his success, considering how quickly he reached that point when you consider that he really hasn’t been doing it all that long, relatively speaking, compared to someone like Brooks: “Yeah, uh, just kinda unexpected, for sure. I was just like, ‘Man, really? That’s kind of wild.’ I was like, man, I feel like I haven’t been doing this that long. But then I have, kind of, at the same time. I’m 35, though, I’m not super old yet. I’m getting there.” Neal joked that Combs is just now old enough to run for President, to which he responded: “This is my first year eligible for Presidency, okay? My first year.” The people love Luke Combs, and he’s far from old, but it’s incredibly that he’s already accomplished such a huge record with hopefully decades more music to come. If anyone else will ever break it one day, Combs is sure going to make it hard to do… @combscentral The legend that you are @Luke Combs #lukecombs #music #country #interview #cma ♬ original sound – Luke Combs Central Luke’s My Kinda Saturday Night world tour will kick off in March of 2026, and you can check out the full list of dates below.
