SWINGING LONDON
Presenter: Peter Begans is a former journalist, speechwriter, and public affairs executive. He lives in New Jersey and currently teaches in the Osher programs  at the University of Richmond and Rutgers University. 

In the early 1960s, while the British Empire receded, a new generation emerged from the rubble of post-war London and conquered the world’s culture.  We will look at the period’s art, music, film, and fashion that included the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, designer Mary Quant, model Twiggy, actors Julie Christie, Tom Courteney, Terrence Stamp and photographer David Bailey. Shawn Levy’s Ready, Steady, Go! Will serve as the main text.

CPR AND AED AWARENESS      Presented by Bill Fitzpatrick, RN 
Bill is an RN and currently teaches EMT and Pharmacology at LBCC. He is an AHA CPR instructor and has taught many classes both for certification and for general knowledge such as this being offered for OLLI

With a half-million cardiac arrests each year, CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) can help save a life if a person’s breathing or heart stops. Why Is CPR Important? Keeping the blood flow active – even par􀆟ally – extends the opportunity for a successful resuscitation once trained medical staff arrive on site. Bill F. is donating time to teaching others how to save a life using CPR and AED.
