B’NAI B’RITH BANNERB’NAI B’RITH BANNERB’NAI B’RITH BANNER It's finally here, the summer that we both hate and love. For, while the temperature is soaring and the hot winds are blowing, delicious mangoes and melons entice as much as the swimming pool. The best way to make the most of the season is to be well-prepared for it. It's the time of the year to nourish your body with seasonal fruit and vegetables that are packed with powerful nutrients which give moisture to your skin and nourish your body, boosting it to counter the influence of the heat. Eat small, frequent meals during the day and make sure you don't skip breakfast, because it prevents low blood pressure and dizziness during very hot days. Keep your diet light and refreshing and avoid heavy foods. Greasy and fatty foods are likely to increase discomfort during the summer because they take a longer time to digest. Staying hydrated is essential so drink lots of lemonade and ensure you carry a bottle of water around with you whenever you are out. And do wear a hat or use an umbrella to keep the sun's rays off your head.

B’NAI B’RITH BANNERB’NAI B’RITH BANNERB’NAI B’RITH BANNER Greetings from Bryna

Summer is here! Enjoy sitting outside on the patio, or at the various benches scattered

around the property. The landscaper planted some pretty flowers and there is nothing

more relaxing then spending some time outside on a pretty summer day.

If you find yourself spending time outdoors remember to apply sunscreen. The

recommended SPF is 15 or higher; apply it 30 minutes before you leave the house.

You can also protect yourself with a hat or an umbrella. Both will protect your skin and

keep the sun from beating down on your head.

Carolyn has planned some fun trips for the month of July. Please look at the calendar or

the sign- up sheets on the bulletin board, so you can plan accordingly.

Have a wonderful July 4th!

If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.

Our door is always open or you can call me at 973-530-3950.

SUMMERTIME WEATHER CHANGES AND POTENTIAL DANGERS

Summertime can bring a range of weather challenges and potential dangers. Some of these threats can occur with little warning, so do what you can to prepare by assem-bling an emergency kit and forming a plan of action. Find out what you should do if faced with the following weather dangers: Lightning: In the U.S., lightning kills more people each year than tornadoes and hurri-canes. If you can hear thunder, you are with-in striking distance and should seek shelter in an enclosed building or vehicle. While indoors, don't use a corded phone, a comput-er or other electrical appliances; and avoid contact with plumbing (don't shower, wash hands, do laundry, etc.).

Floods: If you have time, move essential items to an upper floor. Do not touch electri-cal equipment if you are wet or standing in water. Do not walk through moving water that is six inches or higher. If floodwaters rise around your car, abandon the car and move to higher ground. Hurricanes: If you can't evacuate, get inside and secure external and internal doors. Stay away from windows and doors and take ref-uge in a small interior room, closet, or hall-way on the lowest level. Tornadoes: Storm cellars and basements are

the safest locations, but if they aren't available, go to an interior room, closet, or hallway on the lowest level. Stay away from windows, doors, outside walls, and corners. If you are in a trailer or mobile home, go to a sturdy, nearby building. Extreme Heat: Stay indoors as much as pos-sible. Consider spending the hottest part of the day in an air-conditioned public build-ing, such as a library or shopping mall. Nev-er leave children or pets alone in vehicles. Wildfires: If your home is threatened by a wildfire, you must evacuate. If you have time, bring an emergency kit that includes copies of important documents. Earthquakes: If you are indoors, stay away from windows, doors, and outside walls and get under a sturdy table or desk. If you are outside, keep away from buildings, street-lights, and utility wires. If you're in a moving vehicle, safely stop the vehicle in an open area and stay inside.
