One from the heart

Croí, the West of Ireland Cardiology foundation, is placing defibrillator units around Galway county in order to reduce the number of fatal heart attacks. Highly commendable, though stopping people going into Supermacs and pubs so often might achieve much the same. The units will be operated by trained volunteers and will be in publicly accessible places, such as shopping centres (presumably not too accessible - don't want little Tommy running around the local Spar trying to defibrillate his sister).
