📜 June 1: On This Day in History |  | Choking champion |  Image: Mass General Brigham | Each of the following events happened on June 1. Your challenge is to put them in the order in which they occurred by year, earliest to latest. Answers at the bottom! - A) The stop-choking technique invented by Cincinnati surgeon Henry J. Heimlich is published in Emergency Medicine. The Heimlich maneuver quickly becomes the go-to method for helping people whose airways are blocked.
- B) Comedian Conan O'Brien debuts as the host of The Tonight Show, NBC's long-running late-night talk show. However, Conan's tenure would end after a short seven months, when NBC tried to move back the show's start time to make room for Jay Leno's show.
- C) CNN (Cable News Network), the world’s first 24-hour TV news network, debuts on the air. The network first signed on from its HQ in Atlanta with a lead story about the attempted assassination of civil rights leader Vernon Jordan.
- D) Friar John Cor distills Scotland’s first-ever whisky at Lindores Abbey. Cor was under commission from King James IV to turn eight bolls of malt into "aqua vitae" (or "water of life"), a term that eventually evolves into the word "whisky."

🙌🌱 In partnership with G.E.T. |  | Agriculture is facing a crisis. The science that solved it took 55 years to develop. | 
| The problem: Agriculture water stress is reaching $500B. 24 billion tons of soil is lost to erosion annually. And 45% of applied nitrogen and fertilizer never reaches the plant. The solution: Green Evolution Technologies built InteliGel - the first ultra-absorbent delivery system to change that. A smart hydrogel that holds up to 3,000x its weight in water, pulls nutrients into the root zone, and releases them on the plant's terms - delivering up to 70% less water per acre, 35%+ higher crop yields, and 95%+ soil erosion prevention. G.E.T. is a farmers-backed company. Every previous round closed ahead of schedule. G.E.T. is now in their Pre-Series A round.* |
