Article: Wearing safety goggles is a necessary precaution to ensure eye safety anytime you are working with open flames. Wear a pair of goggles that are rated to at least shade 4 to adequately block the bright acetylene flame from harming your eyes. If you don't wear safety goggles, you could risk seriously damaging your eyes by looking directly at the acetylene flame. Goggles used for annealing, arc cutting, and welding are rated on a scale of 214, with 2 as the least tinted and 14 as the most tinted. Since an acetylene torch is much less bright than a welding torch, your eyes will be protected by relatively lightly tinted glasses. If you do not own a pair of safety goggles, purchase a pair at a large hardware store or a welding-supply store. to set up the acetylene torch. The torch itselfwhich will produce the flamewill have 2 hoses coming out of it. Connect the red welding torch hose to the acetylene tank, and the black hose to the oxygen tank. The acetylene gas will start the flame and the oxygen will continue to feed the flame once it's lit. You'll also adjust the amount of oxygen coming from the tank to control the intensity of the flame. Before you begin, make sure that the 2 pressure gauges on the oxygen tank and the 2 pressure gauges on the acetylene tank are all at "0." If you don't already have an oxygen acetylene torch, you can purchase or rent one from a large hardware store or a home-improvement store. This will engage the gas tank and switch on the flow of acetylene to the regulator. Only turn the valve a quarter of a turn to ensure that there is enough acetylene to start the flame, but not so much that it will be too large to control. Keep an eye on the pressure valve and fine-tune the acetylene valve until it reads 7 psi (pounds per square inch). You'll find the pressure gauge directly on top of the large acetylene tank. Look for the dial that is marked "pressure" or "psi." Once the flame is burning consistently, you can adjust its intensity by turning the acetylene-tank valve so it's more or less open. Find the tank valve on top of the acetylene tank. In most cases, it will be next to (or even attached to) the pressure gauge. Once the oxygen tank valve is fully on, adjust the line pressure by turning the oxygen tank regulator knob clockwise. Take a look at the regulator gauge on the oxygen tank to make sure that it's at 40 psi. If it's not, fiddle with the regulator knob until the gauge reaches the desired pressure. The oxygen-control valve will be a handle located on the top of the oxygen tank. It may have a directional arrow indicating which way is "on." A correct mixture of oxygen to acetylene is crucial to produce a hot, manageable flame. To light the flame, hold the acetylene torch in 1 hand and turn the acetylene knob (on top of the gas tank) a half-turn clockwise with your other hand. This will start the flow of gas. Hold a flint striker about 12in (1.3cm) away from the torch head. Spark it repeatedly until you see an orange-red flame. Once you've turned on the acetylene gas knob, don't wait more than 23 seconds to pick up the striker once the gas is flowing, as it's incredibly flammable. Once a bright orange flame is coming out of the tip of the torch, turn the oxygen valve on the side of the torch clockwise to introduce oxygen into the burning acetylene. Continue turning the knob until the flame turns blue. A blue-colored flame indicates that the flame is at the ideal temperature for annealing copper. Turn on the flow of oxygen slowly, so the flame doesn't suddenly flare up. A flame that is too hot will burn the copper, while a flame that is too cool will not be strong enough to change the copper's properties like durability and malleability.

Put on a pair of safety goggles before you handle the torch. Connect 1 hose to each tank Turn the acetylene valve a quarter turn clockwise. Turn the valve on the oxygen tank as far as it goes counterclockwise. Light the acetylene torch with a flint striker. Turn the oxygen valve until the flame turns blue.

Article: Tell the staff if you know of any special needs or health problems you or your family have. If your young infant needs prescription or over-the-counter medicine, and you have them, give them as directed. You can lessen the chance of getting an infection by washing your hands often and encouraging others to cover their coughs. Preparing for and recovering from a disaster can be stressful. You may be taking care of loved ones, but it is especially important for pregnant women to find healthy ways to reduce the stress they feel.

Drink plenty of water and rest often. Make sure your baby gets plenty of breast milk or formula. Seek prenatal care even if it is not with your usual provider. Make sure health care providers know about any special needs or health problems that you have, as well as any medicines you might be taking (both over- the-counter and prescription). If checking into a shelter or temporary housing, tell the staff you are pregnant or if you think you might be pregnant. If you have your prenatal vitamins or other medicines with you, take them as directed. If you don't have your prescription medicines with you, ask staff at the shelter for assistance in getting them. If you are pregnant or might be pregnant, be especially careful to avoid infections or toxins that may be in the environment. If you are feeling stressed or sad because of the disaster, talk to others and share your thoughts and feelings know you are not alone. If you have any signs of preterm labor, call your health care provider or 911 or go to the hospital immediately.
