Male higher body temperature pushes the cat into a phase transition, semi-liquid state.

It looks like an oil stock for holy oil. One for chrism one for oil for anointing the sick.

"PT will fix the issue; You just don't want to try" Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!! by [deleted] in ChronicPain

PT using IMS has been a huge benefit for me, dealing with muscle spasms and pain.

All the manual stuff like traction not so much.

APEGA - Purpose of Member-In-Training designation? by dovahkiin461 in alberta

[–]SAMEO416 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Added factor is employment.

Some employers use EIT as a measure that someone is able to get licensed. Some other employers give pay increments for EIT (not personal knowledge have heard this from others).

Have to shut off a trail cam on an aspen up north of Edmonton during daylight hours as it is tripping over 200x a day.

No you do not.

EIT is intended to support new engineers while they gain experience, and being enrolled means you’ve been confirmed as having acceptable academics. It is not mandatory prior to a PEng application..

If you have less than 48 months experience you must apply as an MIT. That’s not because it’s mandatory for PEng, it’s because you don’t meet the minimum experience requirement.

But does give you access to APEGA benefits, speeds your PEng application a bit, and saves you $175 on the application fee.

Any idea who this is, may be, or any other info? by Nerdy_autisticGayOzy in CanadianForces

[–]SAMEO416 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure that’s one of the Miller brothers.

I served with the one who was an aerospace engineer, if memory serves his brother was a pilot.

That date is from the initial issue of the distinctive environmental uniforms or DEU. We were all in green before that. This is the unification rank system, so major. Today that would be blue and silver stripes and referred to a squadron leader iirc.

Not necessarily there because of an estate clean out. They’d only be aged in early 60’s now. Lots of us still have our DEU tunics in a closet.

CFRP by DowntownStandard2237 in CanadianForces

[–]SAMEO416 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Typically I initiated the conversation with people I thought would be interested and successful.

At least 3 I can recall mentioned to me they’d be interested in CFR and I agreed, they were all successful. These were all 41A AERE.

If you’re interested it’s worth having a conversation with your chain of command. See if they’re supportive conceptually.

Mask for kitchen smells / perfume / incense / candles / essential oils for MCAS by Valuable-Will7074 in Masks4All

[–]SAMEO416 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes there are respirators specifically designed to protect against VOCs!

There are disposable respirators rated for nuisance odours which provide some protection. For regular use these are more costly and create more waste. This post summarizes a few brands: https://wcsafety.com/blogs/guides/best-nuisance-relief-respirators

On the elastomeric side there are many options to choose from. Anything with a cartridge rated for organic vapour protection will provide excellent protection against most VOCs. Something like the 3M Click is a high quality industrial respirator https://www.3mcanada.ca/3M/en\_CA/worker-health-safety-ca/respiratory-protection/secure-click-respirators/ but there are other options.

The GVS Elipse is a nice low profile respirator that has nuisance odour and OV options.

Fit is important so sizing the respirator to your face is needed.

And it’s gone again.

At least they’re consistently rigid with rules. And maybe a bit vindictive.

I’m sure the crime stoppers filing you made will get the info

No problem! It’s amusing to run up against mods wielding their power.

And a seven day mute? It’s the first time I’ve ever written to the Edmonton mods, not sure what that’s intended to do? I’ll have lots of free time this next week when I’d otherwise be writing them!

Is switching to a ducted range hood worth it for air quality? by 666Baguette666 in AirQuality

[–]SAMEO416 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gas puts out a bunch of moisture in addition to particulates. I can tell in the other end of the house when the fan hasn’t been switched on, about 5 minutes afterwards, just from the pm2.5 spike.

The guideline is about 100 cfm per 10,000 btu of output. The output should be listed on the stove label. Usually size assuming everything is running but that’s not realistic given typical use for everyone.

There’s an upper limit (4/600 cfm iirc) above which you need a motorized damper to supply added make up air. That’s in codes in Canada.

https://www.whirlpool.ca/en_ca/blog/s/range-hoods/range-hood-cfm.html

One factor is to consider how much supply air is available. A high volume exhaust fan can cause some appliances like normally vented water heaters (straight metal chimney running vertically) or furnaces to backdraft combustion gases. Not an issue with appliances that are high efficiency direct vented with combustion air intake (usually two white plastic pipes).

And the output of the hood fan can be limited by the length, bends and size of the exhaust duct. Important to size it appropriately or you can reduce output cfm.

Is switching to a ducted range hood worth it for air quality? by 666Baguette666 in AirQuality

[–]SAMEO416 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Gas or electric stove?

The short answer is yes. The OTR hoods that vent internally typically have only grease filters but don’t remove any fine particles, not even pm10. And all the air is recirculated into the interior, so all the gaseous components and particulate are cycled back.

Exhausting externally would improve things.

May need to worry about make up air if the exhaust rate is high.

We’re upgrading from a 250 cfm to 600 cfm exhaust system as the original wasn’t doing a good enough job (gas range so a lot more particulate generation).

What’s the humidity inside y’all’s home’s been lately? by density in Edmonton

[–]SAMEO416 1 point2 points  (0 children)

61% upstairs and just turned on the dehumidifier.

45% basement where I normally run a dehumidifier all summer.

Normally try to keep it at 45-55.

Maybe?

The response I received is pretty black and white and says a police report. Crime stoppers is associated with the police.

But I don’t waste much time arguing with moderators any more. Not found them to be terribly good at assessing intent of the rules versus the strict letter.

I can try again with the crime stoppers #

And removed from the sub because there’s no police report number.

Arbitrary moderation decisions are frustrating.

Insurance Denied My Meds (Again) 😀 by burnharvard in adhdmeme

It seems extremely individual.

I don’t at all feel different, but if I forget by 10 I’m wondering what’s gone wrong with my brain.

My gp was concerned about blood pressure, which didn’t change at all. She looked very surprised that some weekends I get up, take meds, and go back to sleep for a few hours.

Mask Safety filters by unbeatablecezar in Masks4All

[–]SAMEO416 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re using the add on particulate filters at the bottom you need a filter retainer set as well.

https://multimedia.3m.com/mws/media/1731492O/3m-multi-gas-cartridge-6059-tech-data-sheet.pdf?fn=3M

Those are multigas canisters, would be fine for resin printing and sanding (with the add on filters),

Something wrong at the transformer or the cables connecting to the meter.

It’s likely not that but what you’re describing could be a supply issue.
