4 Tips About Cats Ringworm and Your Children

Did you know that your cats ringworm is not a real honest to goodness worm? That’s right cat lovers. Your cat isn’t infected with a worm, but a fungus. If you’re into big names the medical term is dermatophytosis. Let’s keep it simple and use ringworm throughout this article. This article will give you 4 tips about your feline’s ringworm.

1, Your Cats Ringworm And Your Children.

Ringworm is extremely contagious. Your cat can pass it on to your children, you and other animals. You or the kids can infect someone else or another pet. Not only can it be passed on to others, it can be spread to other parts of your body or the bodies of your child or pet.

It is impetrative that you have your animal treated as soon as possible. In addition, if your child or you, are infected you should consult with your family physician. In most cases if the fungus is treated properly you will start to see improvement within the first few days.

Within 7 to 10 days there should be a complete recovery from the fungus.  However, the doctor or your vet may recommend continued treatment for up to 2 or 3 weeks to make sure there is no reoccurrence of the infection.

2. How Can I Tell If My Cat Has Ringworm?

You should understand that in some cases there will be no outer signs of the fungus infection on some cats. However, your cat can still be a carrier and infect you, your children and your other pets. If you suspect your animal is a carrier call your vet.

If this is the case how can your cat or you be a carrier? Actually that is pretty simple to explain. The fungus can be anywhere. It can be in the grass, on the sidewalk, flowerbeds and can even be in the air ducts of your home.

During the incubation period of the fungus it develops spores, which can be picked up by your pet or you. When your animal or you move about the spores will drop off into the carpet, furniture, clothing, and bedding. Therefore the spores then can be picked up by your heating and Air Conditioning unit to be circulated through out your home.

3. How You Can Identify The Cats Ringworm.

First let’s talk about how ringworm can be spotted on your favorite feline. In most cases you will spot the fungus on the head, around the ears or eyes or on the paws and nails of your cat.

Generally this is demonstrated by the circles of hair loss or flaky red skin in a circular form. You may notice your kitty scratching and licking the wounded area. Furthermore you may well see an increase in broken hairs and patches of flakey skin on the pets bedding, the carpeting, your clothing or your furniture.

One area you need to think about checking closely is the cat’s paws. There is a variety of the fungus, which seems to concentrate in the pads of the paws or under the nail beds of your pet.

Second let’s talk about how to spot it on your child’s body or on your self. Very likely you will have an itchy sensation, in the area, where the fungus has penetrated the skin. As it continues to fester you will see a red circular pattern on the infected area. You may also observe dead looking skin flakes. Again you should contact your doctor in the event you see an outbreak on you or your child.

4. What Are The Treatments For Your Cats Ringworm?

At last there is some good news. Ringworm is easily treated by your vet and you. In the majority of the cases the vet may prescribe an antifungal cream and shampoo. It’s usually a matter of shampooing your favorite pet every other day and applying the cream as directed by the vet.

Surprisingly enough your personal physician will recommend a very similar treatment for you or your child. It’s possible they may prescribe and antifungal soap and cream. However, the doctor may just tell you to pick up the soap and cream across the counter at your local discount store or drugstore.

In conclusion you, your children and your wonderful pet can be infected by cats ringworm. But it is easily treated and cured with the proper medication.

Tips for Motorists to Save Money at the Pump

Forecasters say the price of gasoline likely will set records throughout this busy driving season, which certainly will shrink many a bank account. Is there anything a motorist can do?

According to the professionals
at the nonprofit National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE), changing a few driving habits and paying attention to routine vehicle maintenance will help. They offer the following tips on how to squeeze the most out of each gallon of gas.

* Break your speeding habit. Speeding can decrease your miles per gallon by 15 percent or more. Sudden acceleration also can guzzle gas. Anticipate traffic patterns ahead and adjust your speed gradually. When feasible, use cruise control.

* Use windows and Air Conditioning wisely. Your mileage should improve if you keep the windows closed at highway speeds since air drag is reduced. This is true even with the air conditioning on - assuming that the system is in good working order, that is. But try to avoid using your air conditioner in heavy, stop-and-go traffic.

* Get organized. Combine your daily trips and errands and try to travel during off-peak times to avoid congested roads. Shut off your vehicle while waiting for friends and family as well.

* Clean out clutter. Removing unnecessary items from your car will cut down on weight and less weight means better mileage. After family vacations, make sure you remove any items that you don’t need for your regular day-to-day travel, such as a rooftop cargo carrier.

* Check your tires. Underinflated tires or poorly aligned wheels waste fuel by forcing the engine to work harder. Wheels that are out of alignment, as evidenced by uneven tread wear, should be aligned by a professional.

* Follow the service schedules listed in your owner’s manual. Replace filters and fluids as recommended. Take your vehicle to a repair facility to correct any engine performance problem, like rough idling and poor acceleration. Given today’s high-tech engines, it’s wise to have this type of work done by auto technicians who are certified by ASE to handle engine performance problems.

* Keep your engine operating efficiently. A failed oxygen sensor or misfiring spark plug can reduce gas mileage. Moreover, a well-maintained engine can prevent minor problems from becoming expensive headaches.

ASE was founded in 1972 to improve the quality of automotive service and repair through the voluntary testing and certification of automotive technicians. ASE-certified technicians wear blue-and-white ASE shoulder insignia and carry credentials listing their exact areas of certification. Their employers often display the ASE sign.

Air Conditioning Chambersburg Pa Residents

As the summer heat starts its slow ascent up the thermometer, it’s time for Chambersburgians to start searching for air conditioning Chambersburg PA suppliers. Air con is one of the necessary conveniences of present-day life, and it is important to pick a quality supplier when setting up your system.

A peek back to Chambersburg, PA’s past offers examples of how heating and cooling have made our lives better to manage. When militant abolitionist John Brown whiled away the summer of 1859 in a Chambersburg attic, it couldn’t have been too snug. Imagine being cooped up in that cramped, damp attic. Brown’s face must have dripped with sweat in an unventilated space. If he had the comfort of air conditioning Chambersburg PA should have been more conducive to his preparations for the raid on Harper’s Ferry. Who knows what would have happened if that attic had been fitted out with a cooling air conditioner?

The history of air conditioning really reaches back to Roman times. Aqueducts were routed thru the walls of the houses of affluent Roman voters to keep them cool. Fans were used in the Han Dynasty of the second century when Ding Huan invented a by hand powered rotary fan with wheels 10 feet in diameter. This technology was improved in subsequent centuries, with tang Dynasty rulers using water to power their fans. Cisterns ( open pools in central areas ) and wind towers to chill buildings in the summer. Ventilators were utilized in many houses in Cairo, Egypt during the Middle Ages - a long way from air conditioning Chambersburg PA style today!

Brit scientist Michael Faraday made a major advance in cooling technology when he compressed and liquefied ammonia and discovered that it chilled the encompassing air. The chances of this technology were first realized by Florida surgeon John Gorrie in the mid-19th century, when he patented an early air-conditioner first used to chill air for his patients. Willis Haviland Carrier modernized this technology in his creation of a mechanical air conditioner that decreased humidity. He finally evolved the technology to houses and cars, bringing us nearer to the modern air conditioning Chambersburg PA residents enjoy today.

Air conditioning makes summer living easier in so many ways. The heat in the dead of summer can be unbearable ; air conditioning makes your home and the rest of Chambersburg PA acceptable when it otherwise couldn’t be. There’s no need to suffer through June, July, or August if your AC is broken ; calling a competent engineer will have you living in comfort once more.

With the modern conveniences of air conditioning Chambersburg PA residents do not have to sweat and suffer in the summertime months. Air Conditioning systems can keep you cosy at any point during those sweltering months.

Air conditioning system : why the equalizing line is icing?

Its a Carrier water cooled condenser type, chilled water acu system for a Dehumidifier system. Used at the urea fertilizer bulk store. System not running.Suspected TRV defective. Ordered to change new filter drier (block filter) and change new TRV (TRAE30HW90 6A ), purge the affected area. charged in gas-R22 and run system. Continue to charge in gas to LP 60 psi and HP 225 psi, load was 38.5 amps. Require 41 amps @ LP 70 psi, HP 250 psi approx. nominal ratio. At 38.5 Amps the equalizing line started to frost (icing). This shows that there is liquid flow to the return line. At this point the amps drop to 34 amps and LP 38 psi in a period of 20 min.The other system combined to the same chiller is running good with HP 240 psi, LP 68 psi @ 41 amps.
I also tried charging up more gas but the gas did not want to go in. Continued to run system as it is and there was no change.
Whats the remedy to this condition? Tks, Allan

Sounds like you have a partial blockage in the system. You say the equalizing line is frosting. How far back does this start? The start point may be where the blockage is.

Carrier Heat and Air help!?

I am a new home owner with little knowledge about the heat and air system. The Air Conditioning unit outside comes on whenever the heat kicks on. Is this normal??? I was told that the air conditioning unit outside runs backwards in ‘heat’ mode and becomes the heat pump. Is this correct?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Thanks! I live in Indianapolis, IN where it is currently 29 degrees. How can the unit be pulling heat out of the air? It runs simultaneously with the furnace.

This is correct, you have a heat pump system with electric heating elements for backup or emergency heat when needed. The heat coming from your heat pump when it’s the only thing running is not very hot, luke warm at the most, Some people love them, They are efficient if located and set up properly. Now for every 45 min of run time the heat pump will go into a defrost mode and you will hear a swooshing sound when this happens. It’s doing this to melt off and ice build up on the coils and line set. When this happens your electric heating elements kick on to heat your house. You can also run just the electric heat if you want by switching the lever on the thermostat to emer. heat. The heat pump should not run now. Hope this answers your questions

Help me interpret my dreams?

I had a couple dream scenes last night that I remember. The first one began with me being a school student, and being aboard some ship that was apparently the size of a mini-aircraft carrier. It was rather rickety. The ship ended up sinking, and we had to all get out through a tiny opening in the front of the ship. The sequence must have repeated, or maybe the ship came back to the surface, and we got on board again. It sank again.

Then a military carrier came to rescue us. There was an odd sequence where an officer getting everyone on board checked everyone’s luggage saying, "no traveller’s cheque, no traveller." Apparently he was checking identities of luggage to make sure that people didn’t grab the stuff of the dead and carry it off. It still seemed odd to me. I was watching this scene but didn’t participate.

The last scene was completely separate from the other two. I got a new car. It was a red one, I remember, and I was trying it out with some lady in the passenger seat — not sure who she was. It had some new technology in it, not your standard gas and brake pedals. I also was delighted to discover that it had Air Conditioning! (I’ve rarely ridden in a car with actual A/C.) There was a brand name that I remember, but it doesn’t exist in reality.

Thoughts on these as metaphor?

Your first 2 dreams indicate a fight inside you and your expectations in life ; but you last dream [ the third ] is very good ; yes this dream is telling you ; that you will meet love ; and this girl would be very special ; she would have everything you had wanted in a girl

its 646 words. i need to shorten it to 500 words. how do i do that? i cut it down from 2000+ words so i cant f?

figure out how to make it any shorter!!!

It’s a fact that life without air conditioner would be extremely different from what it is now. Air conditioning has improved our economy, society, and culture, and has changed the way Americans live, walk, and play. Despite the many positive outcomes, Americans have definitely become to reliant on it.
Willis Havilland Carrier created air conditioning in 1902 while working at a printing house. The irregularities in the humidity and temperature made the inks misalign. Carrier’s invention lowered the humidity and also held it at a constant level. Air conditioning lowered the humidity of air by “balancing the temperature of the coils, through which cold air passed, with the rate of flow to reach the desired dew-point level”(Willis Carrier, par.4).
20th century social scientists theorized that “hot weather slowed civilization down, made people lazy, and created generations of slow-witted people, justifying slavery and imperialism” (Robbins, Susanna, pg. 2). When first invented, Air Conditioning was only used in factories for industrial uses and did nothing to improve the comfort of the poor factory workers. As time went on, advertisement began focusing on middle class citizens and rather than being considered an industrial product, it became a social status shaper. At the time, elite, upper class Americans shunned air conditioning and claimed that they were above admitting any discomfort. That perspective of air conditioning is now gone, and over 75% of American homes have air conditioning. Social rituals to deal with summer weather such as sitting with family on porches, and summer vacations became less common. This impact is negative because families began spending less time with each other.
Before air conditioning was used for comfort purposes, it was used mainly in America’s industry. Air conditioning wasn’t limited to only printing plants. Tobacco factories and textile mills also used it to improve their products. It also increased productivity in factories and other work places. Studies showed that a cooler temperature and lower humidity lead to an increase in productivity. In fact, “one 1938 study found a 51% increase in productivity during the summer months”. (The coolest America of the century, pg. 2). Not only did factories gain productivity, but places like movie theaters, restaurants, and stores gained a lot more business because customers came in to escape the heat. This impact on America’s economy is definitely positive. Without all the productivity and business gains, our economy wouldn’t have become as strong as it is now.
One of the most noticeable impacts air conditioning has had on America is its culture, or more specifically, its architecture. Older homes had porches and verandas. This was where families gathered on hot evenings to escape the heat. These homes use to
have thick walls, eaves, attics, breezeways, and cross ventilation; all different methods used to keep houses cool. Once air conditioning became common in houses, those methods were replaced with centrally cooled suburban houses. This impact is negative because the south lost a lot of its unique architecture.
Finally, air conditioning definitely has changed the way Americans live, work, and play. Now enclosed spaces are comfortable enough to work in, maximizing productivity and space. AC is also now used for preservation. It was used while preserving the Sistine Chapel in Rome and to preserve a 500-year-old frozen Incan mummy. Air conditioning also led to the invention of the centrifugal chiller. This invention was used to cool large public areas, and used refrigerant fluid instead of ammonia.
Out of all other American innovations, air conditioning might have had the greatest impact, changing American society, culture, as well as its economy. Americans have obviously become too dependent on, as they miss it when its not there. Americans now have become accustomed to being comfortable, so now, instead of going outside to enjoy the outside where they would miss the cool AC air, they would rather stay in the comfort of their air conditioned home.

Remove sentences that are totally obvious. Such as: "It’s a fact that life without air conditioner would be extremely different from what it is now".

Gee, no kidding. That’s totally obvious that not having an air conditioner is different than having one. It’s a lame thing to point out. Don’t insult your reader’s intelligence with stuff like that.

Also you have some run-on sentences: "Out of all other American innovations, air conditioning might have had the greatest impact, changing American society, culture, as well as its economy."

Just say, "air conditioning has changed American society." Then give examples.

It is really silly to say: "Americans have obviously become too dependent on, as they miss it when its not there."

First of all, it’s unnecessary to tell me something if it is obvious. Since it is obvious I must already know it, so why are you wasting my time by telling me? Oh, by the way you are breathing. And the sun is bright.

Also, it’s PAINFULLY obvious that people miss air conditioning when it’s not there. Duh. You don’t need to keep saying, "People notice when the air conditioning is missing." You say this over and over.

Cut out unnecessary words: "One of the most noticeable impacts air conditioning has had on America is its culture, or more specifically, its architecture."

So be specific then. Shorten this to: "The use of air conditioning has changed American architectural styles." There, see? Short and sweet.

Look up the word: Succinct.

Make your writing succinct. Get to the point. Don’t tell me things that are obvious, and don’t do it in a round-about way.

Is it correct that 5 acres at Peliyagoda will be used for waste disposal & a portion of the remaining for UDU?

UDU is undisclosed usages - The population at Peliyagoda is protesting because they have multi-million rs. fish market slated for that area within hundreds of meters of the dump site. The people would rather make money selling fish in a cooperative atmosphere - where real earnings enter their pocketbooks than working at a dumpsite next to a sausage factory owned by a multi-national that takes all the earnings out of the country and is a civic non-performer. Considering Burns abominable management of the dump at Bloementhal as well as spotty performance in picking up and disposing of waste why would we want to continue a 1B US contract with them or give another venue to mismange, cause health hazards, and remove a billion dollars from Sri Lanka? In Sri Lanka we do not give billion dollar sausage factories to conglomerates that have overcharged and deprived our citizens of their fundamental rights to earn a living, turn their neighborhoods to slums and not protect their health and well being. Burns had an adequate opportunity to prove their capacities and failed dismally.Cancelling the contract for non-performance is a much better option than having it subcontracted back to the city. You effectively own all Burns assets due to non-performance and certainly do not need to enter into a sub-lease to utilize such for the collection, maintenance and disposal of refuse. A fish market at Peliyagoda that meets ISO22000 standards will not only support sales to consumer and commercial interests in Colombo but also, being near the rails support sales to other areas.You need to work with Champika on this matter. The peoples will be very dismayed to hear how these UNP ventures aim to keep local people destitute while earmarking billions for development of multi-national companies that do not perform, provide horrible working conditions and are able to funnel over a billion dollars out of the country based specifically on their non-performance. We do not care if Jaliya’s friends in Congress are upset because I fully well know that whether this matter has to be exposed in Chennai, California or North Carolina that People who have kicked these same environmental offenders out of their areas will support the same actions in Sri Lanka. The area of Pamungada has also proven to be a haven for LTTE elements as well as lands that had been illegally encroached upon during previous UNP/PA administrations. There have been repeated discovery of arms and explosives at encroached lands. For matters of national security a complete village revitalization program has been slated for the area

http://www.sundaytimes.lk/060827/news/nwsp1.3.html
This is why that a billion dollar project that allegedly provided 50 jobs and consists of large tracts of land where explosives and weapons caches can easily be hidden is not the direction that Sri Lanka needs at this or any juncture.
http://www.island.lk/2009/04/05/news5.html
When you consider who provides transparency in matters of land reclamation and who operates in subterfuge and recall that Ranil has not only allowed war-like equipment to be shipped to the LTTE though foreign sources but is also intimately involved in many of these multi-billion dollar multi-national operations that have gone belly up or proved to be major non-performers. Dulles has been trying to get Burns to clean up their act for months but having that come to fruition should not be based on a sub-contract deal between Burns and the City - when it can be easily based on the City pulling Burns contact and assets for non-performance and the City moving forward with a scope of work/change of venue that protects public interests in the outlying areas. What I know is that for every company that breaks the public trust there are another two or three that wish to perform within legal and ethical standards that respect our environmental concerns, truly want to be civic members of our soceity and are willing to support the Public Good and maintain the Public Trust. I am proud of the peoples of Gampaha area because they are not demanding things unreasonable but are defending the earmarked projects that extend their sustainability, provide opportunities for personal enrichment, develop commerce at a grassroots level and grow their communities with a sense of inclusiveness as well as protect opportunities for current and future prosperity. I have a question for the UNP - what is the name of "The National Air Carrier" of Sri Lanka?

Yes, it’s correct.
