Guest guest Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 Are y'all scared of a little competition? EMSEAT needs more teams for the Valsalva Bowl! It's fun and... educational! Okay, maybe not educational. It's just plain fun. Come show off what you know - a little mix of useful and trivial knowledge. Besides, what wouldn't be fun with Bob Page in charge? So round up your colleagues and sign up to be a team at the Valsalva Bowl. Send your team information today to Weller, EMSEAT, at .E.Weller@.... EMSEAT and Bob Page bring back the Valsalva Bowl at Texas EMS Conference 2007! That's right! This year, the Valsalva Bowl makes a triumphant return to the Texas EMS Conference this year in Houston! In case you forgot, or never heard of it, the Valsalva Bowl is a fast-paced quiz show featuring teams of three competing against each other in a contest of speed, luck and oh yes, medical knowledge. The winners receiving Texas-sized trophies and of course bragging rights as the champions of Texas! Sponsored by the EMS Educators Association of Texas, the competition preliminaries will take place on Sunday night, 7 p.m., November 18th, at the Hilton. The finals will be at 12:15 p.m. on Monday, November 19, in the exhibit hall. EMSEAT will take the first 16 teams of three to sign up. Even if you don't get in, come to the event, as some teams may lose their nerve. If that is the case, others will be pulled in! Teams are HIGHLY encouraged to wear matching uniforms, shirts or whatever to show team spirit! The game is a fast-paced question and answer session where teams of three (ECA, EMT-B, EMT-I, EMT-P or LP, RN, MD, DO, whatever) compete against each other and the clock to answer questions about EMS. The question difficulty: about 60 percent basic, 30 percent ALS, and 10 percent trivia! Team members will use a buzzer to chime in with, but they must be fast. The other team may beat you to the buzzer and answer first. There is a large scoreboard with countdown timer and the questions and answers are posted on a screen for everyone to see! Even the audience can play along (but don't yell out the answers!). The MC and game show host is Bob Page, native Texan and past winner of the Valsalva Bowl in 1992. Bob has carried the same philosophy of the Valsalva bowl with him and since 1993 has been doing the " Stars of Life Championship " around the country. In fact there are 8 other states that have champions. Bob dreams of having a " National Stars of Life Championship " where the state champs come together for an all-out competition. With Texas in the mix, it may just happen! Don't delay! Send your team information today to Weller, EMSEAT, at .E.Weller@....

Guest guest Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 I know an EMS " Odd Couple " , including one of our newest paramedics, who should be thinking about this event. I know both plan to attend the conference, so we'll wait and see if they're up to the challenge.

Guest guest Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 The victim that ate your chili was shipped to New Jersey to join the other super fund sites. Did you ever pay the bill for that porta-john, or are you still denying liability?
