Student suffers multiple fractures after falling 20 feet
Nathan Whalen, UI Sophomore, was found by friends Thursday after falling 20 feet down an embankment.
Whalen was found on the 300 block of Taylor Avenue where it was determined he had been walking along at 1:30 a.m. Thursday morning.
Lt. Dave Lehmitz of the Moscow Police Department said when he was first discovered they believed he had been assaulted, but it is now know that alcohol was a factor.
He was taken to Gritman Medical Center and life-flighted to Kootenai Medical Center in Coeur d’Alene.
Lehmitz said Whalen suffered multiple fractures to the face and a broken jaw, but that after talking with his mother they don’t believe he suffered any brain injuries.
He was life-flighted Friday from KMC to Sacred Heart in Spokane for additional surgeries.

Thanks for the tips you have provided here. Something else I would like to say is that computer memory needs generally go up along with other improvements in the technologies. For instance, as soon as new generations of cpus are introduced to the market, there is usually an equivalent increase in the scale preferences of both the computer memory as well as hard drive space. This is because the software operated by simply these cpus will inevitably surge in power to use the new technologies.
