8 Section 6 Chicago Tribune, Sunday, July 14, 1985 Discoveries Saving money by using less gas Science A Tick-borne diseases bug researchers Next to mosquitoes, ticks are the second biggest cause of insect-borne diseases in humans, including Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, which has been increasing. The main reason for this is that ticks have the uncanny ability to wait two to three years between meals until an appropriate human or animal host comes along that they can bite, said Glen Needham, an Ohio State University entomolo THE UNHANDYMAN'S GUIDE TOCAULIONG AND WEATHERSTRIPPING. One of the best ways to save money on energy costs is to make improvements on your home that will help you use less energy. One of the easiest and most worthwhile things you can do is minimize your heating and cooling loss by caulking and weatherstripping. If you live in a typical home and install caulking and weatherstripping, you can trim your energy cost for heating by up to $40 per year.

You'll recover your investment in two years or less, and after that it's money in the bank. Caulking and weatherstripping your house requires a minimum of tools, time and know-how. Even not-so-handy homeowners can easily handle this job. You use caulk to plug air leaks outside and weatherstripping inside to seal the openings around doorways and windows. Ticks have the uncanny ability to wait two to three years between meals until an appropriate human WEATHERSTRIPPING How sunrise, sunset times are figured New York Time New Santo How are the times of sunrise and sunset determined? Is the time at a given location exactly the same year after year for a particular day? A In the good old days a rooster sufficed, but like everything else, it is more complicated now.

Basically, sunrise and sunset are based on when the upper edge of the sun's disc appears to touch the horizon. "Appears" is used because the sun's rays are bent, or refracted, slightly by the Earth's atmosphere. For precision's sake, the times are calculated as the moments vhen the geocentrical center of the sun is SO minutes of arc below the horizon 34 minutes as a set value for refraction plus 16 minutes for the semidiameter. Dr. Kenneth Franklin of the Hayden Planetarium in New York, who uses spherical trigonometry to calculate the times of sunrise and sunset, begins by determining the correct declination of the sun that is, its position north or south of the equator, which changes moment by moment the latitude of the observer does not change.

Then he calculates its semidiurnal arc how long it takes the sun, both rising and setting, to get from the horizon to the local meridian. This time is then corrected to relate to the standard time meridian, 75 degrees west of Greenwich, England. New York City, for ex THE INDOOR SOLUTION Weatherstripping is the best way to stop air leaks. To detect hidden drafts inside, make your own distress flag by taping a piece of tissue to a pencil. On a breezy day use this detector to find air leaks by holding it near window sills and doorways.

If the tissue rnoves, you've located a spot that needs weatherstripping. Here's where to look for drafts: Around all windows and door frames Space around pulleys in double-hung windows At electrical wall outlets and switches in exterior walls Around heating registers. "LET'S TALK CAULKING" First, survey your house from the outside. Look for gaps in the exterior walls where you need caulk. Note any missing or sun dried caulk especially on the south side of your house.

Here's where to look: Around all window and door frames Around exhaust fan Weatherstripping comes in many forms. For instance there are threshold weatherstripping materials designed to fill the gap between the bottom of a door and floor. For doors and windows, there's spring metal or brass weatherstripping that's inexpensive and effective. Self-adhesive plastic or animal host comes along. more than 21,000 species of bees in the world, and.

Terry Griswold wants all of them to be included in his new bee catalog. Griswold, an entomologist at the U.S. Department of Agriculture's bee laboratory at Utah State University, said no one really knows how many varieties of bees there are in the world. Water pure torture for an unlucky few Some people who avoid taking baths have a good reason. Water, for these unlucky people, can cause an allergic skin reaction that provokes intense itching, prickling, tingling or a burning sensation, said Dr.

Howard Steinman, chief of dermatology at the Veteran's Medical Center in San Diego. A study of 36 victims of this condition, known as aquagenic pruritus, revealed that symptoms occur within IS minutes after exposure to water and that the sufferers frequently become irritable, depressed and angry for up to two hours, he reported in the Journal of the American Academy of Combined vaccine saves $1 billion A cost-benefit study of the combined measles, mumps and rubella vaccine showed that in 1983 the vaccine prevented nearly 6 million cases of disease and saved more than $1 billion. For every $1 spent on the vaccine program, $14 was saved, Dr. Craig White of the federal Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta reported in the American Journal of Public Health. Without an immunization program, an estimated 3.3 million cases of measles would have occurred, compared to the 2,872 cases actually recorded, he said.

gist. While waiting patiently for their next meal, ticks survive by drawing moisture from the air. By studying how tick saliva is able to wring tiny amounts of moisture from the air, Needham hopes to discover ways to block the cycle, thereby leading to methods of controlling the pest. Volunteers sought for heart study Based on preliminary studies indicating that fish oil reduces cholesterol levels, medical researchers at Rusn-Presbyterian-St. Luke's Medical Center have launched a pilot study to determine if concentrated fish oil capsules can prevent heart attacks.

The study, headed by Dr. Michael H. Davidson, is seeking volunteers with heart disease. Subjects may have already had a heart attack, coronary bypass surgery, angina or a cholesterol level of 220 or greater. Those interested can call 942-6016 for further information.

Plastic puts bite on metal fillings Plastic, tooth-colored dental fillings appear to be just as good as the metal amalgam fillings for baby teeth, according to researchers at the National Institute of Dental Research. A two-year study hi 37 children showed that 80 percent of the plastic fillings, called composite resins, showed no signs of discoloration, the investigators reported in the Journal of the American Dental Association. Improved plastic fillings, which have the advantage of looking like natural tooth enamel, may soon be available for use in permanent teeth in children as well as adults. He's busy as a bee "cataloguing species rIt is estimated that there are ample, is about 1 degree east of weatherstripping is more expensive but easier to install. As a handy temporary sealer, you can use caulking rope or cord.

For electrical outlets and light switches, low cost outlets (bath, kitchen or laundry) Around window air conditioners Around holes cut for hose faucet, wires and pipes Around the chimney Around lighting fixtures Where masonry and siding meet. Caulk is a flexible sealant designed to fill cracks and gaps in fixed joints of a house. One tube will fill about 25 feet of a narrow 'A" crack or two small windows.1 In home centers and hardware stores you'll find a variety of caulks to choose from, but don't let that scare you. Ordinary latex caulk is easy to use and cleanup, and a good bet for the first time user. Silconized caulk is more expensive, but it lasts considerably longer.

If you can afford to use a better grade of caulking you won't have to re-do the job every few years. Check the label to see if the caulk can be painted, how long it takes to dry, the type thinner recommended for cleanup and what the temperature requirements are. Don't forget to purchase a caulk gun, unless you this meridian, and each degree translates to about four minutes' difference in sunrise and sunset times.
