Tips for Finding Shelter from the Heat

When temperatures soar, finding shelter from the scorching heat is crucial for staying safe and comfortable. Here are some tips to help you seek refuge from the hot weather:

  1. Stay Indoors During Peak Heat: Avoid outdoor activities during the hottest parts of the day, usually between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. If possible, opt for indoor activities in well-ventilated and air-conditioned spaces.
  2. Utilize Cooling Centers: Many communities have designated cooling centers during heatwaves. These locations often include public buildings such as libraries, community centers, or shopping malls, where you can take respite from the heat.
  3. Seek Shade: When outdoors, seek out shaded areas such as under trees or canopies. Utilize umbrellas or portable sun shelters to create shade if natural options are limited.
  4. Stay Hydrated: Whether indoors or outdoors, ensure you stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Avoid alcoholic or caffeinated beverages, as they can contribute to dehydration.
  5. Use Fans and Cooling Devices: If air conditioning is not available, utilize fans and cooling devices to circulate air and lower the ambient temperature in your living space.

Remember, prolonged exposure to high temperatures can lead to heat-related illnesses, so taking proactive measures to find shelter from the heat is essential for your well-being.

Stay cool and stay safe!

To observe the night sky, first find a location away from city lights to reduce light pollution. Then, allow your eyes to adjust to the darkness. Use a star chart or a stargazing app to identify constellations, planets, and other celestial objects. Consider using a telescope or binoculars for a closer view, and be patient as your eyes adapt to the dark. Happy stargazing!

Today a lesson in French as we publish this recent capture of a visitor to Beautiful British Columbia. Outside the Post office office and in the center of the City of Merritt we were pleasantly reminded that culture enriches especially when married with a common interest such as travel or camping.

Do you know yourself? What about limits, do you care about others limits, does it matter?

Understanding oneself is crucial for personal growth and well-being. Setting limits and boundaries can help individuals maintain a healthy balance in their lives and relationships. It’s important to consider and respect the limits of others, as this contributes to building meaningful and respectful connections. When interacting with others, being mindful of their limits can lead to more positive and fulfilling relationships. However, it’s also essential to evaluate the impact of these limits on the nature of relationships, whether they are with friends or potential adversaries. Striking a balance between self-awareness and understanding the boundaries of others is a key aspect of navigating social interactions.

Your path is yours to share and own.

The Curiling club have finished the new roof and exterior finish on the facility. The new white roof included an application of insulation under the all white panels. Its “notacably cooler at the rink”. We also have an adaptation “we can use a stick to send a rock from the circle” this innovation has enabled some that “can not get down to through a rock to continue to play”

The upgrade on the decades old building was funded by levels of government including the regional one. Volunteers attended the 2 yrs of work to complete the project. So June 9 24 saw the last of the outside cladding installed leaving the solitary boom truck at rest at the back of the structure.

Curling clubs engagement before and after retirement.

  • To estimate the lifetime earnings of an individual entering the labor force, various factors need to be considered, such as education level, career path, and economic conditions.
  • Retirement income can be influenced by various factors, including savings, investments, retirement plans, and government benefits.

For a personalized analysis, a financial advisor or retirement planner can provide tailored projections and strategies based on individual circumstances

Volunteer

Belonging and contributing to infrastructure, can be a rewarding and growing in local communities as they grow.

Public facilities are public.

A sense of community is a value when dedicating public works. Often memorial is a sense of empowerment over a loss of control over some bad events that give relief to the sense of powerlessness. Match maker is a good term when engaging in projects.

Volunteering offers a range of benefits, both for the individuals volunteering and the community as a whole. Some of the key benefits of volunteering include:

  1. Personal Growth: Volunteering provides an opportunity for personal development, skill enhancement, and gaining new experiences.
  2. Community Impact: Volunteering allows individuals to make a positive impact on their local community, contributing to the well-being of others.
  3. Social Connection: Volunteering can help individuals build and strengthen social connections, creating a sense of belonging and camaraderie.
  4. Mental and Emotional Well-being: Engaging in volunteer work can lead to increased feelings of satisfaction, purpose, and happiness.
  5. Skill Building: Volunteers often have the chance to develop or hone skills that can be valuable in both personal and professional life.
  6. Empowerment: Contributing to public works and community initiatives can provide a sense of empowerment and purpose.

In summary, volunteering offers a multitude of benefits, from personal growth and skill development to community impact and emotional well-being.

Have great Wednesday…

Physics and heat

Hot goes to cold

Thermal dynamics

Entropy plays a crucial role in thermodynamics, particularly in relation to the concept of heat transfer from hot to cold. In the context of thermal dynamics, entropy can be understood as a measure of the dispersal of energy within a system. It is often associated with the tendency of systems to move towards a state of greater disorder.

One of the most well-known principles related to entropy and thermal dynamics is the second law of thermodynamics, which states that in an isolated system, the entropy tends to increase over time. This means that as energy is transferred from hot to cold, the overall entropy of the system will tend to increase, resulting in a more disordered state.

In the specific context of heat transfer from hot to cold, the increase in entropy aligns with the overall trend towards greater disorder and equilibrium within the system. This principle is fundamental in understanding the behavior of energy and heat in various natural and engineered systems.

If you want to delve deeper into entropy and its relationship with thermal dynamics, I’d be happy to provide you with more detailed information or further resources.

Good Luck 🤞

Nasa to test the boeing starliner manned space capsule. June 1st 2024

The effectiveness of the Boeing Starliner capsule will be determined by the success of its test flights and its ability to safely transport astronauts to and from space. NASA’s rigorous testing and evaluation procedures will ultimately determine its effectiveness for manned space missions. Stay tuned for updates on its performance.

4000th post on The Proprietor review…

WE say, thankyou universe for your care and concern when giving our chance for a life. Also mention Robert Brosinsky, Herb Allen and Richard Thomas Griffiths, partners in Grizzley Rock Services contract work at the sites in the north east of BC decades ago. And all the Merritt People that had some work by that risk actuaited.

Four Months

So, no water will come from drought sources, however BC Hydro will transfer water from the Williston reserve to the site C near Hudson Hope BC, beginning “late this summer for a four month fill.” The depth will be 52 meters at the dam wall,at half way river. The rate will be up to three meters a day.

This exercise is not like the filling of the Three Gorges Dam in China that took an part of a second off the rotation of the earth, however the Non profit expects to produce 35 percent of the WAC Bennet dam in this new facility.

Non profit

BC hydro is a monopoly that can not retain earnings unless budgeted to a project. All efficiencies that are generated by law must be returned to its rate payers in lower rates. Therefore the organisation is mandated to explore opportunities to do just that. You can hold their feet to the fire as this efficiency comes to fruition.
