HOT
WEATHER
RISKS!!
What
are the risks?Dehydration:
One of the biggest dangers of a heat wave is
the increased risk of dehydration. This is
the loss of water from the body, and with it
important blood salts like potassium and
sodium which play a vital role in the
function of organs such as the kidneys,
brain and heart. It can lead to confusion,
lethargy and problems with breathing and
heart rate.
Heat stroke or exhaustion: Under normal
circumstances the sweat we produce when we
get hot keeps us cool when it evaporates
from the surface of our skin. However, on
extremely hot days, or when we over-exert
ourselves, this system can fail, and body
temperature can start to climb to dangerous
levels. This leads to heat stroke or
exhaustion. This can cause headaches,
dizziness and muscle cramps, but it can also
be life-threatening. It is particularly
dangerous because symptoms can come on very
rapidly, and - unless you are watching for
the signs - very little warning. Sunburn:
A sun tan may look nice, but it is actually
a sign of damage to the skin. Not only is
sunburn painful, it can accelerate the
ageing process, and increase the risk of
skin cancer, including the potentially fatal
form, melanoma.
What is the best way to avoid problems?
Drink lots of liquids:
As you will be losing more fluid than
normal, it is important to top up your
supplies. The best way to keep yourself
hydrated is to drink water, and to sip it,
rather than gulp it down. On an average day,
a person weighing 58kg (128lb) should drink
eight average-sized glasses of water. As a
general rule, for every 2lbs (0.9kg) of body
weight, you need one fluid ounce (28.4ml) of
water. In very hot weather, consumption
should be increased. However, drinking
excessive amounts can bring problems of its
own. You might think a cold beer is exactly
what the doctor ordered, but in fact,
alcohol dehydrates the body, and consumption
should be kept to a minimum. If you can't
face drinking lots of water, non-carbonated
soft drinks, such as fruit juice, are a
reasonable alternative.
Modify your diet:
Avoid hot, heavy food. Salt pills are
available to replace minerals lost in the
sweat. However, most diets contain more than
enough salt, and so this is unlikely to be
necessary.
Stay out of the sun:
The best place to be on a blistering day is
in the shade. If you must sunbathe, then
ensure that it is for short periods, and
that you use sunscreen with a protection
factor of at least 15. If you start to feel
queasy or ill then get out of direct
sunlight as quickly as possible. The sun is
at its most dangerous between 11am and 3pm.
Be sensible about exercise: Do not
exercise vigorously during the hottest times
of the day. Instead, run, jog or exercise
closer to sunrise or sunset. Take things
slowly and adapt to the pace of life in the
sun. If you feel breathless or your heart is
pounding, stop what you are doing and try to
cool your body down, for example, by taking
a cool shower. Rest if you feel faint or
dizzy.
Keep cool:
Wear light, loose-fitting clothing, such as
cotton, so sweat can evaporate.
Dark, heavy clothes absorb heat, but
remember that some thin materials do not
provide a sufficient barrier to the sun's
dangerous UV rays. It is also a good idea to
wear a wide-brimmed sunhat, preferably with
vents. Wear sunglasses to protect your eyes.
Ventilate your home:
Keep windows open all day and all night and
use fans. This is particularly important at
night, when the body cools down. Avoid
heat traps:
Try to avoid anywhere where shelter is
minimal, and ventilation poor. Parked cars
can be a particular hazard. If you can, try
to stay in an air-conditioned environment.
If you have no alternative, but to travel in
a hot, stuffy environment - for instance on
the Tube - then make sure you carry a bottle
of water with you. If you face a long
journey, it may be wise to plan breaks to go
above ground for some fresh air.
Take special care of the vulnerable:
Those most at risk from the sun include
children under four, people over 65 whose
bodies adapt more slowly to the change in
temperature, overweight people whose bodies
tend to retain heat more and people who are
ill. Babies are particularly vulnerable to
heat as their sweat glands are not
well-developed. It is important not to wrap
them up in blankets or heavy clothing when
it is hot - but it is equally important to
ensure that they are not exposed to direct
sunlight.

Through CP News Alert I learnt this morning that a
Pakistani was seriously hurt in an accident near Quwiyah
and his spinal chord was damaged. I was shocked to learn
that the treatment cost is around SAR 80,000. As we all
know that arranging such huge amount is almost
impossible for a common Pakistani worker. And how much
depressed he would have been along with his family.
What I suggest that a collective effort is required by
all of us to help out our brother at this time of need.
I also suggest to open an account in a bank to meet this
kind of situations in future. And it should be
obligatory for every CP Community member to contribute
every month a minimum amount in that account. By this
way we will be able to help out needy brothers at the
time of calamity instead of chewing collar of shirt or
getting shocked at the eleventh hour. I am praying to
Allah Almighty for soon recovery of Mr.Pervaiz Termizi
and requesting all Community members to help him out by
donating generously for his cause.

Dear Bhai,
thanks for the email and your sentiments. May Allah SWT
reward you for your good deeds. Your suggestion is valid
but Contact Pakistan worldwide policy restricts us
collecting money and then giving it away. As per our
policy we can share any validated genuine case with the
community and then leave it for each individual CP
member to make
up his/her mind if to donate. Where it helps the donor
to validate the case on his/her own there at the same time
we conform to our 100% transparency rule. So when such
appeals are made, we leave it to members to decide,
interact with the person and then help if wished and
possible. Thank you.

Get Up
Assalam-O-Aliakum,
14th August is here and we are busy rejoicing the
60th Independence Day anniversary. As per routine, parade,
air shows, display of weapons and the fireworks mark our
Independence Day celebrations. Houses are decorated with
cute, little green and white flags and the national flag is
hoisted on almost every house and building I our homeland.
Celebrating one's national days is a healthy sign that show
that nation is aware of the importance of its independence.
However, over the years sad trends have set in which mar the
happiness of this special occasion.
It is seen that on the eve of Independence Day, many young
boys drive about in motorbikes, wheeling. This activity
cause incredible risk to theirs and others lives. These boys
often block the road and cause traffic jams. Last August I
was in Pakistan, and I feel sad to recall the hooliganism
caused by a dozen boys on bikes. They had blocked a busy
intersection causing traffic jam which lasted for over an
hour. It was agonizing for others on road. There was an
ambulance stuck in the traffic jam too. The boys had put
music (not patriotic songs but of our 'neighbor's' films)
and danced in frenzy. The next day, I read in newspaper
about many motorcyclists and others who had died due to road
accidents that occurred due to wheeling and other such
frolics. Another sad trend is spending a huge amount of
bucks to get brand of fireworks which go off with the
deafening bang, without feeling any consideration for the
discomfort they cause to elderly and patients.
Folks, I ask you… Is this the right way that a developing
nation that is plagued by many social problems, celebrate
their Independence Day? Is it just to waste our time in idle
activities? Can we afford to spend hard-earned money in
frivolous activities?
On 14th August 1947, we got freedom from colonial
masters, but we are still slave to monsters of poverty,
illiteracy, pollution and unemployment. The struggle has to
continue. The zest and vigour that we find in ourselves on
Independence Day shall fuel us to get up and work for our
country. It is high time that each of us realizes his/her
role and actively participates in making our country a
developed, truly democratic and Islamic state. That was for
what many lives were laid down and sacrifices made by our
forefathers. Our nation had not recovered fully from the
aftermath of the severe earthquake when another natural
calamity of floods has affected many of our country men.
Besides working for their rehabilitation, we have to work to
improve in other sectors such as health care, education etc.
We cannot shy away from our duty by saying, "I can't do
anything, it is government's responsibility". No dear, it is
our duty too. The Independence day has significance that
goes beyond the ritualistic singing of national songs and
chanting slogans. Our youth is our hope. Our nation looks up
to them to fulfill the dream of a better and stronger
Pakistan. So young folks, while you enjoy the celebrations,
make a resolution how you plan to play your part in
Pakistan's development.
Happy Independence Day. May Allah always bless our country
and countrymen. Ameen! Ms. Amna
