The article tells tales from some of Chicago's hottest jobs. The people usually are working by water, in an air conditioning offices and they escape after work to relax to the beach or in the cool apartments. But here are some guy who need to endure the heat!
The first man who speaks about his job is the window installer , who can't run from the sun. He says that this isn't difficult, because you need just do, what you have to do...."It is basically us versus the elements!"
The second guy is the zookeepers, who works in the Lincoln Park Zoo. He speak about his work in the lion house and by the seal pool. He spends about 70 percent of his job outside, cleaning the grounds and caring for the animals. They try to make more comfortable for the animals, but he always go in the red panda room, because here is 68 degrees.
The asphalt pavers maybe have the hardest work. The hot new asphalt is 200 degree! They say to try finish the work as soon as they can, and they need to make 15-minute breaks for every 30 minutes of work.
I'm very happy don't need to work outside because I hate the hot weather expect by the beach!
I can't believe somebody works outside by 90-100 degree temperatures. In any case I respect these people!

This is not surprising, as music affects the body and mind in many powerful ways. The following are some of effects of music, which help to explain the effectiveness of music therapy: Brain Waves, Breathing and Heart Rate, State of Mind, and other benefits. I think there are many things seem strange to us when we hear about it at first time, but once we read and go into it, we understand more and more. So Music has healing ability.However, some People may not know how music affects us and why, they still enjoy to listen it.So I would say "If music is the medicine of the soul and the body, let it play on"!
