How to Survive a Summer Power Outage cheaperthandirt
Blackouts can last anywhere from a few hours to a few days and preparing for the loss of electricity is just like being prepared for any other emergency, you will need food, water, a way to heat food, lights, and batteries. However, during the summer months, there are extra precautions you should take. It is important to stay as cool as possible and hydrated.
Extreme Heat Survival.
The first thing you should do when the lights go out, besides grabbing your flashlight, is to go inside, secure the doors and windows, and then turn off everything you had turned on except for one light. When the power is restored, it will take a surge to turn everything back on, which could cause the power company further problems. The one light will let you know when power had returned.
Water
When preparing for an emergency, experts generally say to stock up on supplies that will last you three days. For example, you will need one gallon of water per person per day. If you have a family of four you will need 21 gallons. During the hottest months, I suggest making that at least two gallons of water per person per day. When it is so hot, you need to stay hydrated and drink water even when you are not thirsty. Further, applying cold compresses to your forehead and neck will also cool you down.
Food
When the power goes out, obviously so does the fridge, so stock up on non-perishable foods. I like canned items. They store well, are cheap to buy, and easy to heat up. Plus, you don’t have to add anything to them like pasta and rice boxed dinners. The Canned Food Alliance says that the minimum amount of food you need is two cans of food per person per day. Personally, I keep three cans a day for myself. For three days, that is only nine cans of food. I take advantage of my local grocery store’s 10 for $10 deals. Alternatively, you may choose to store MRE and MRE-style meals for such an emergency.
Tricks to Survive Hot Summer Nights (Without AC) greatist
Sleep like an Egyptian.
If there seem to be a lot of Egyptian references in this list, it’s because those Nile-dwellers knew how to do it right. The so-called “Egyptian method” involves dampening a sheet or towel in cool water and using it as a blanket. We recommend laying the damp sheets on top of a dry towel to avoid soaking the mattress.
Create a cross-breeze.
In this case, hanging out in the cross-hairs is a good idea. Position a fan across from a window, so the wind from outside and the fan combine in a cooling cross-breeze. Feeling fancy? Go buck-wild and set up multiple fans throughout the room to make the airflow even more boisterous.
Pamper your pulses.
Need to cool down, stat? To chill out super-fast, apply ice packs or cold compresses to pulse points at the wrists, neck, elbows, groin, ankles, and behind the knees.

Reasons for Trolling - Reasons for Trolling
by Jonathan Strickland
Some people troll others as part of a personal vendetta. This is also known as cyberbullying. The troll might taunt the victim in various online communities, use the victim's e-mail address to sign up for spam e-mails or even impersonate the victim in order to discredit him or her. In extreme cases like the family feud in Washington, the troll might post information online that leads to direct physical consequences.
Other trolls want to promote their own agendas by undermining an online community. The clearest example of this is on a political forum. A troll might use manipulative tricks to sabotage a legitimate discussion or to discourage community members from supporting a specific political figure.
But the trolls that seem to be the most puzzling are those who have no personal agenda or vendetta against anyone. For them, trolling is an end unto itself. The goal is just to frustrate people and to build the troll's reputation as a troublemaker. Or could there be more?
Mattathias Schwartz of The New York Times interviewed several trolls, including the infamous Jason Fortuny. The trolls offered various reasons for trolling beyond just a desire to victimize people online. Some claimed they wanted to teach people a lesson about how harsh the online world can be. In other words, they felt it was for the victims' own good. Others tried to justify their actions by pointing out how rough their own lives had been in the past.
The very nature of the Internet might contribute to trollish behavior. The Internet gives people the opportunity to remain anonymous. That means the average user has very little sense of accountability while online. It's easy to forget (or ignore) the fact that on the other end of the connection is a real human being with real feelings.
Trolls sometimes make fun of their own motives. In the Encyclopedia Dramatica, a very popular wiki in troll culture, there's an entry that claims that the American Psychiatric Association will include "Internet troll personality disorder" in the next edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. The entry then goes on to list the "diagnostic criteria" for the disorder -- many of which paint trolls in a positive light.
The very nature of trolls makes them difficult to peg down. When are they being deceptive? Do they believe they are online vigilantes and guardian angels, or are they selfishly exploiting others for their own enjoyment? How many are teenagers or younger? It's impossible to know for sure, though that doesn't stop people from making guesses and generalizations.
In the end, it's probably just best to avoid engaging with trolls altogether. It'll save you a lot of frustration and wasted time. And it annoys the heck out of the trolls.
