AICC general secretary Rahul Gandhi could play a major role in formulating strategy for Assembly elections in half a dozen states next year — including Uttar Pradesh, Punjab and Gujarat — given his mother Sonia Gandhi's illness.
Mr Gandhi is already seen as the party's number two. While he has so far confined himself to the Youth Congress, NSUI and UP, he also had a key role in formulating the power-sharing arrangement with the National Conference in Jammu and Kashmir.
Rahul Gandhi has been the star Congress campaigner since 2007. Gujarat Cong-ress leaders hope he can change the agenda there before the election.
He will have to take a call on alliances and help select candidates in Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Punjab, Hima-chal Pradesh, Goa, Gujarat and Manipur. Except UP and perhaps Goa, the Congress is likely to contest on its own in most states.
Next year will be crucial politically as the half-dozen state elections are expected to set the tone for the Lok Sabha polls, due in 2014, and next year's presidential election.
Insiders say Mr Gandhi, who has steadfastly refused to join the Union Cabinet since the UPA came to power in 2004, might be made a working president or vice-president of the party and a core committee member after Mrs Gandhi returns home. Asian Age

Monitoring Rapid Endocytosis in the Electron Microscope via Photoconversion of Vesicles Fluorescently Labeled with FM1-43
- Thomas SchikorskiAffiliated withNeuroscience Department, Universidad Central del Caribe
* Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access
Cells communicate via endo- and exocytosis with their environment and neighboring cells. At synapses of the nervous system, fast exocytosis is coupled to fast endocytosis, which forms the basis for neurotransmitter release. The introduction of the unique fluorescent FM dyes allowed the monitoring of fast synaptic vesicle exo-endocytic cycling during live imaging sessions and after photoconversion of FM dyes into an electron-dense diaminobenzidine polymer synaptic vesicle cycling can be studied in the electron microscope. This protocol describes FM dye labeling of synaptic vesicles of cultured hippocampal neurons and photoconversion of the fluorescent synaptic vesicles for analysis in the electron microscope (EM).

The inspiration behind Juiceboxx, a cover for a MacBook power adaptor designed to prevent a cord from fraying, came after one of the founders experienced having four MacBook chargers break in one year. Juiceboxx
The UpTake: Congratulations to Juiceboxx. The Columbus startup succeeded where a majority of Kickstarter campaigns failed. Here are four ways Juiceboxx reached its goal.
Juiceboxx, the Columbus startup I wrote about yesterday, ended up reaching its $25,000 goal on Kickstarter with about a little more than 48 hours to spare. That's good news for the quartet of guys with roots at Ohio State University who want to start production on the adapter protector for Apple MacBooks.
And it might have a few lessons for other entrepreneurs facing a crowdfunding deadline:
So congratulations to the Juiceboxx team. Nicely done. With 36 hours left to go, you're at $26,604 and counting. You'll get your pledged money and be able to start producing. Now, you need to prove it was all worth it.

When official-plated transit authority vehicles were scarce and basically reserved for those in upper management to go about their daily business to and from meetings, etc..., road control would be the responsibility of the "fixed-post foot dispatcher." Not all of these positions have been eliminated, but I wonder if any readers remember the stability and sense of control that was present while the foot dispatcher was on post?
The fixed-post foot dispatchers/supervisors had varying assignments that changed their basic responsibilities, but their main responsibility was managing the operators that were assigned to their route(s). I say "their" route(s) because the operators that they managed were in a sense working for that foot dispatcher. The foot dispatchers being considered as the coach, considered the operators working those routes as the players they coached. It became personal to them. The manner in which the operator performed their jobs would reflect in the foot dispatcher themselves.
On the first day of a new "pick" (schedule implementation), I thought it was a great time to personally introduce myself to all operators that would be on the routes I was responsible for and conduct a respectful brief conversation informing the operators what I would and would not tolerate. One of the best means of asserting control of the road is to inform all bus operators that they must not bypass a bus stop where any member of supervision is present. I also informed each of them that I would not hide, but be visible, so they could depend on me to be there for them whenever they were in need of a service adjustment or for assistance. The way fixed-post foot dispatchers performed their jobs had a direct impact on the quality of service that a customer received.
Related: Keeping Old School Practices in New Operator Training
Simply recording bus numbers on a tally sheet was not all that was required by the foot dispatcher. The primary responsibility was meeting service needs by monitoring and maintaining even headways and by the implementation of service restoration techniques. This would gradually reduce excessive gaps in service and return service back to their normal scheduled headways as quickly as possible. Fixed-post foot dispatchers also:
Many foot dispatcher posts have been eliminated and replaced by mobile supervision. This is needed as they cover more ground in a shorter amount of time than the foot dispatchers who may have had to abandon their post to respond to a call on foot or using mass transportation. The negative part of the removal of so many foot dispatchers is the absence of their eyes and ears that they provided while on post. Their mere presence kept everyone honest and assured that the service provided was delivered in a smooth and regulated manner. Holding operators to their schedule departure time eliminated the need to go from terminal to terminal as quickly as possible, which usually resulted in speed being an issue.
Today, I'm afraid that in some cases with outdated schedules not providing sufficient running times for operators (being a Schedule Department issue), operators are forced to increase their speed in an attempt to maintain the schedule. If this is the case, this increase in speed dangerously repositions the 3 S's of transportation from Safety, Service & Schedule to Schedule, Service & Safety. Schedule should never overshadow Safety at the top of the pyramid.
Related: Eliminating Risk for You and Your Shuttle Customers
Today, with no or minimal fixed-post foot dispatchers to make the necessary adjustments and to slow things down where applicable, which I believe can reduce some of the collisions that occur with a route that is void of fixed-post road dispatchers, it might be time to reinstate them back to their street posts.
Is something as simple as reinstating the fixed-post foot dispatcher being overlooked as a possible deterrent to some of our knockdowns and collisions that unfortunately occur? I say bring back the fixed-post foot dispatcher.
Louie Maiello is a sr. consultant (transit training & simulation), L-3/DPA; independent consultant, Bus Talk Surface transit Solutions; and writes a monthly blog for metro-magazine.com.
Years ago, I was with Louie Maiello when someone walked over and asked him for some advice: "We're having problems with people remembering to secure the bus before they leave their seat. Do you have any advice? How can we get them to remember?" Without missing a beat, Louie said "PIN it." The advice seeker happened to be a veteran mechanic, so he understood and walked away to resume his work. I stood there for a while scratching my head. Pin it?
Diagnose, Prescribe & Follow-Up, are the usual doctor's actions that are utilized when visiting the doctor's office for whatever is ailing us. This formula should also apply within your training department with regard to the ailment of Bus Collisions.
If we encourage our operators to treat operating a bus as a shift-long Zen moment, we may be able to reduce preventable crashes by a significant amount. The "Zen Operator," who drives precisely at all times, is also less stressed. The Zen Operator flows through difficult, tight situations easily and their body language and vibe give passengers a sense of confidence. The operator whose passengers have a white-knuckle death grip on the back of the seat in front of them is not practicing "Zen Bus Operation."
Ah, summer. Pool parties, barbecues, the smell of honeysuckle and the sight of lightning bugs. Or — a rise in crime, agitated riders seeking air conditioning, heat stroke, a new fiscal year, and the necessary, but unpopular, fare increases. However you view the summer months, with a direct correlation between high temperatures and increased crime, it's vital for transit leaders to be asking themselves, "Have we done everything possible to keep our people safe?"
The RMS occurred last month in Albany, N.Y. and it was a truly remarkable learning experience for those in attendance. The RMS serves as a one-of-a-kind event that brings together transit risk management professionals from all across the country to focus on key topics related to safety, risk management, planning and prevention.

Agatha Christie (band)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Graffiti -- It Can Be Gorgeous In Houston
Lovell says eradicating graffiti puts a financial strain on the city. She also urged residents to call 311 when they see graffiti, which would seem to add to the problem. But whatever.
She also made this bold call: "I am asking the graffiti taggers to stop and to join their fellow Houstonians in our efforts in cutting the budget shortfall."
Taggers -- if there's anyone out there more concerned about balanced budgets than them, we don't know who it is. Maybe Lovell meant to say "tea-baggers," because tea-baggers are constantly harping on the budget, or at least they did once a Democrat got in office.
Anyway, there's a lot of bad graffiti around Houston, but there's a lot of great art, too. Click here for a slideshow of some of the most gorgeous pieces of spray-paint expression around.

[WLS ABC 7 Chicago Anchor]
Ron, the fight against gangs in Chicago is beset with problems, and one gang specialist tells ABC 7 News that gang structures have changed so that, "We don't know anybody anymore; we're hurting real bad."
[Hook] 2X
Black Stone, Latin King, Vice Lord, BD,
Solid Fo', Spanish D, New Breed, GD
This song is giving game to visitors and suburbanites (ugh, Naperville) about the gang scene in Chicago. It also takes note of how many people "false flag" other gangs, but rarely do you hear about someone false flagging a Chicago gang. It should be noted this song was made before Rick Ross' foolish track, but the Gangster Disciple Nation's response is further evidence that the Chicago influence permeates through 21st century banging.

Thanks for helping!
We arrived late in the evening and received great service, delicious food, and were not rushed to leave at closing. The fettuccine was not too heavy, next time I will check out the pizza.
We found this yummy restaurant based on previous trip advisor reviews and it did not disappoint! It was seriously some of the best Italian food ever!!! My husband had lasagna, my daughter had pizza and I had the yummy pasta with the pesto, Alfredo and marinara sauce. It was soooo good! We will definitely return on our next trip up...
If they have it in the kitchen, you can have it on your pizza, even if it is not listed as a topping. I had a gluten free number 22 which was delicious. I never would have thought to put sunflower seeds on a pizza. My lunch mates wanted a chicken alfredo pizza. No problem.
I had a pasta dish that was delicious and so filling I had to take 1/2 of it home! My daughter had a pizza and the dough was fresh and the meat was delicious. My husband had spaghetti and meatballs, the meatballs were the size of tennis balls, no kidding! I would highly recommend Spiros as a family friendly or...
This is one of the best original pizzas in town! Efficent and friendly staff, have never had a bad meal.
Best pizza around. Very fast service, family friendly atmosphere. It is close to our home and we eat there frequently.
This neighborhood Italian restaurant should be a Shoreline institution. They have a great, moderately price menu and an outstanding staff. I called in for a takeout and they had it ready for me in about 10 minutes, piping hot on arrival!
Family owned, pasta and pizza. The food was incredible but the personalized attention and service were the highlight of the meal. The people there made us feel like family. Wish we lived closer and we would return often.
They've been around for a really long time. Conveniently located off Aurora/99. Friendly service, pitchers of beer, and delicious food.
Simple and tasty!
Note: You can call for pickup if you're in a rush. They have to cook the food, so it does take a bit of time.
Spiro's is consistent with their Greek style pizza. The sandwiches are winners and it's not too expensive.

Star Wars is always a topic here at the SA Forums, but it's been more relevant than usual lately with the announcement that Disney acquired Lucasfilm. Many corners of the Internet responded with angsty posting about how their childhood was being ruined because different entertainment things they enjoyed in childhood were now being combined in adulthood, and to be fair there was probably some of that in the 33-page thread "Disney Buys Lucasfilm" that I didn't read at all. But other Goons responded by making the sort of Disney/Lucasfilm hybrids you're sure to see!

Angry and hopeless Trump voters take heart: there is a man who is out for justice for America.
People can't stop talking about this Donald Trump character. He's said a lot of crude and hateful things over the years, and demonstrated a tremendous lack of judgment, discipline and decency. If you ask me, he's not fit to be our president. In fact, he's not even fit to be mayor of Buffoontown.

In late April, three schools were targeted in the space of three days, leaving dozens of children injured. And in March, Zheng Minsheng, a 42-year-old doctor, stabbed eight young children to death in Fujian Province." ~~~~~~~~~~ New American - China School Knife Attack, Portland Mall Attack Receive Little Coverage: http://tinyurl.com /c8tmtvw "The same day as the tragic Newtown, Connecticut, school shooting, a Chinese man stabbed 22 children in China's central province of Henan.

The spate of attacks left at least 21 dead and some 90 injured.

Your so-called "second period of mass murder" coincides with the so-called "progressives" taking control of social norms.
...and you still haven't figured it out.
Earl Warren emphasising individual rights? Give me a goddam break. Among other fascist things, Warren was responsible for the Japanese internment camps and stealing everything they owned after they were interned.... not to mention the Warren Commission which a 6th grader can take apart.
Can you tell us why Congress overwhelmingly rejected the Warren Commission report when it was submitted? And, can you tell us why that very same report was unanimously accepted without by the same institution 20 years later without any changes? Obviously, something changed, and it wasn't the report.
All of our social problems: more murders than the number killed in a full scale war, and drugs in every school in the country, stagnant welfare states in every city, urban blight, exploding crime rates, etc., etc., etc. are all the result of your so-called "progressive" influence.

China has probably the strictest gun control laws in the world, and unlike our existing gun control laws that aren't being enforced in any neighborhood that votes 100 percent Obama, China has strict enforcement.
And these frauds in the White House are convincing idiots out here that some gun control law will solve this problem.
This problem was created by the influence of the so-called "progressives" on our social norms.

If we as a society focused more on trying to prevent unwanted pregnancies by educating and societal pressure, there might not be so many unwanted kids.

Aspiring to greatness used to be a goal worthy of pursuit but, in typical Liberal fashion, "greatness" has been redefined downward. It's easier for more constituents to reach the bottom rung than the top one. Everybody wins a prize. That's how the Boy Messiah got where he is: he gives away prizes paid for by working folks, those who reach for the top rung.
Liberal's have moved their constituents away from the ocean's depth of Shakespeare and Newton to the warm and fuzzy shallows of Gilligan's Island. But the Sharks Of Ignorance are closing in fast on those feeder fish.

The present invention relates to equipment for the exhaust gas detoxification of internal combustion engines including at least one thermal or catalytic reactor within the exhaust system.
It is well known in exhaust gas systems that the part of the system which includes the reactor is located remote from the internal combustion engine itself in order to avoid exhaust gas heat being transferred back to the internal combustion engine which would impair its cooling; in addition, there is rarely enough space for mufflers or reactors within the engine compartments of motor vehicles. In such an arrangement, the exhaust gas has normally cooled off somewhat when it reaches the reactor, resulting in inefficient operation of the reactor especially during the warm-up phase of the internal combustion engine. Furthermore, the difference between the inlet and outlet gas temperatures of the reactor is quite high which, when applied to the entire thermal operating region, leads to considerable thermal stresses in the material as well as to a non-uniform treatment of the exhaust gas.
It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide exhaust gas detoxification equipment of the above type wherein the reactor temperatures are similarly as high as those which prevail in the exhaust manifold of the engine.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a favorable temperature equalization within the reactor.
It is a still further object of the present invention to achieve, by simple means, a favorable operating temperature in the reactor during the warm-up phase of the internal combustion engine.
The above and other objects are achieved according to the present invention in that the regulation of the heat distribution is accomplished by means of a heat pipe having three sequential zones: an evaporation zone; a transport zone thermally insulated with respect to the outside; and a condensation zone. The heat pipe further contains a radially permeable capillary inner tube which internally conducts the working medium in vapor form streaming toward the condensation zone and externally helps to conduct the working medium in liquid form to flow towards the evaporation zone. Heat is absorbed by the fluid working medium in the evaporation zone of the heat pipe and is transported nearly isothermally to the condensation zone in the reactor where the working medium condenses and subsequently flows back to the evaporation zone as a consequence of capillary forces (surface tension) within the capillary tube. By the use of such a heat pipe it is possible to achieve a relatively high heat transport rate at practically constant temperature. The device described is a heat flow transformer which operates independently of the existence of a gravitational field.
According to a favorable embodiment of the present invention, the region of the heat pipe containing the evaporation zone is located in the vicinity of the exhaust valves of the internal combustion engine, whereas the region of the heat pipe containing the condensation zone is disposed within the reactor. It is advantageous to make the region of the heat pipe containing the transport zone flexible and especially to conduct it outside of the exhaust pipe. By a suitable development of the heat pipe within the reactor, it is possible to reduce the temperature gradient within the reactor material both in the axial or stream direction as well as in the radial direction, because the temperature drop within the heat pipe is very small even in the condensation zone. In order to achieve a favorable temperature compensation, the region of the heat pipe containing the condensation zone can be equipped, on the side exposed to the exhaust gas, with heat conducting guide surfaces, such as ribs, fins, sheet metal cells, flow-reversing vanes and the like, in thermal contact with and disposed both longitudinally and transversely to the heat pipe. The effect of these additional elements is further enhanced if, according to the invention, at least one secondary heat pipe is provided in the exhaust system, especially if developed as fins on the primary heat pipe. In that case, the region of the secondary heat pipe containing the evaporation zone should be in thermal contact with the region of the primary heat pipe containing its condensation zone.
In order to achieve favorable operation of the reactor and especially in order to avoid overheating, the heat pipe can function as a temperature regulator. To this end, according to a further embodiment of the invention, the length of the effective condensation region is alterable. For this purpose, the heat pipe can be connected, at the end which lies opposite the evaporation zone, with a container filled with, especially, noble gas. In that way, a separation zone is formed transversely to the axis of the heat pipe, between the active condensation zone and the noble gas zone. The temperature regulation makes it possible to use only a minimum of catalyst material because the working surfaces can be made smaller on account of the improved temperature equalization. When a noble gas is used, the temperature within a certain range remains constant and independent of the amount of heat transported at a value where the vapor pressure corresponding to this temperature is equal to the noble gas pressure. A change in the amount of heat transported, therefore, only produces an axial shift of the separation zone between the working medium and the noble gas, and therefore causes a change of the length of the effective condensation region of the heat pipe (the surface giving off heat). If the gas pressure is unchanged, however, then the temperature of the heat pipe also remains unchanged. An ideal gas container would be infinitely large and for this reason, according to the invention, the volume of the gas is changeable and the container is preferably made in the form of a folding bellows, but other displacement bodies can be used. The regulation can be further influenced in that, according to the invention, the condensation region of the heat pipe partially protrudes out of the reactor and is preferably provided at this free end with cooling fins. During a suitable temperature change, the separating zone migrates into this protruding region, thereby accelerating the process of condensation.
Another embodiment of the present invention provides, for the purpose of heat regulation, a second, independently acting heat pipe within the exhaust system. The primary heat pipe serves for heating the reactor and is especially developed as a double coaxial pipe where the annular space enclosed by the pipes contains the working zone. The second heat pipe is located so that, for purposes of temperature regulation, its evaporating region extends into the inner pipe of the primary heat pipe which carries exhaust gas.
According to yet another embodiment of the present invention, a heat pipe in the form of a double-walled pipe surrounds the reactor in sleeve-like fashion and its evaporation zone is in thermal contact especially with the reactor working surface, whereas its condensation zone is exposed to ambient air.
If the working medium is suitably chosen, the reactor transports heat to the outside only after it has achieved a favorable working temperature. The working medium could be, for example, sodium which has a boiling point of 882� C. Only when this temperature is reached does sodium begin to evaporate and above this temperature, the heat pipe transports heat to the outside by means of its condensation zone. In this process, use is made especially of the fact that, during the transition from the solid to the liquid state of an element (for example, sodium, potassium) or of a compound (salts and the like) as well as during a transition from the liquid to the gaseous state, isothermal conditions (constant temperature) prevail during the heat transport process until the entire working medium has achieved the new state of aggregation. Because a solid salt, for example, is a poor heat conductor, the heat pipe acts as a thermal insulator with respect to the outside (radiation shield).

FIG. 7 illustrates partly in cross section still another embodiment according to the present invention according to which the heat pipe surrounds the reactor in sleeve-like fashion.
FIG. 8 illustrates partly in cross section still another embodiment according to the present invention according to which the heat pipe surrounds the reactor with a condensation region at each end thereof with the evaporation zone therebetween.
Referring now to FIG. 1, a first embodiment of the invention shows an internal combustion engine 1 supplied with air through a suction tube 2 whose free passage is controlled by a throttle flap 3 actuated by a gas pedal 4. A fuel supply pump 5 and a fuel metering assembly 6 cause fuel from a tank 7 to be added to the intake air. The exhaust gases of the engine 1 are gathered in an exhaust manifold 10 and are led through an exhaust pipe 11 to a reactor vessel 12. Within the reactor vessel 12, a final combustion of the uncombusted remnants in the exhaust gas takes place, and the exhaust gas then continues through a pipe 13 to the atmosphere. In order to transfer the high exhaust gas temperature prevailing in the exhaust manifold 10 to the reactor 12, a heat pipe 14 is provided. The heat pipe 14 has three regions, namely, an evaporation region 15, a condensation region 16 and a flexible transport region 17. The heat pipe 14 is disposed in such a way that its evaporation region 15 lies within the exhaust manifold 10 and its condensation region 16 lies within the reactor 12. Between regions 15 and 16 extends the flexible transport region 17 which can lie outside of the exhaust system and which is thermally insulated from the atmosphere. This flexible region 17 is shown enlarged in FIG. 2 where a capillary inner tube is shown formed by a helically wound wire 18. The outer jacket 19 is constructed from suitable thermally insulating material. A wire mesh tube or a wick or the like may be used instead of the helical wire tube. In order to achieve a favorable heat distribution and heat conduction, region 16 in FIG. 1 is provided with ribs 20 between which metal sheets in the form of fins 21 are disposed whose surfaces are covered with an evaporated catalytic material, for example, platinum, and around which exhaust gas flows as shown by the arrows. The fins 21 are stacked as shown and mounted to the ribs 20 in a conventional manner.
By a further embodiment shown in FIGS. 3, 4 and 5, an improvement of the heat transfer process can be achieved by providing, in addition to the primary heat pipe already described, several secondary heat pipes whose evaporation region is in positive thermal contact with the condensing region of the primary heat pipe. In FIG. 3, the condensation region 22 of the primary heat pipe is provided with radially extending secondary heat pipes 23 whose evaporation region is fixedly connected with the region 22. The secondary heat pipes 23 can either be installed in the form of many small pipes whose longitudinal axes extend radially from the axis of condensation region 22 or they can be disposed parallel to that axis. In either case, each secondary heat pipe has its own capillary tube and operates as a closed system.
FIG. 4 shows a reactor 24 and a region 25 of the heat pipe 29 which extends out of the reactor 24 and is provided with cooling fins 26. This end of the heat pipe 29 communicates through a pipe section 27 with a container 28 filled with noble gas. As in the heat pipes previously described, the operating medium of the heat pipe is evaporated in the evaporating region which is not shown in FIG. 4 and flows within the heat pipe 29 to the reactor 24 and from there to the region 25 where it undergoes condensation. The condensate is subsequently carried back to the evaporator under the influence of capillary forces due to the capillary tube 30. Between the zone of condensation in the heat pipe 29 and the noble gas there is formed a relatively sharp separation in the form of a separating layer 31. A change in the amount of heat carried causes only a shift of the zone of separation between the working medium and the noble gas, resulting in a change of the effective heat-exchange surface area in the condensation region of the heat pipe. Now, if the amount of heat transported changes, but the gas pressure remains unchanged, then the temperature of the heat pipe also remains unchanged. Hence, within a certain temperature range, and independently of the transported amount of heat, the temperature of the heat pipe 29 adjusts itself so that the vapor pressure of the medium corresponding to that temperature is equal to the gas pressure.
In the embodiment of FIG. 4, the exhaust pipe 11 is provided as shown with flow-scoops 57 which produce a turbulent flow of the exhaust gas as it approaches the reactor 24. In the reactor 24 there is provided secondary heat pipes 23' similar to those described for the embodiment of FIG. 3. Also, the reactor 24 is provided with ribs 12' between which the fins 21' are mounted to effect the purpose described in the embodiment of FIG. 1 with respect to the fins 21.
FIG. 5 shows a reactor 32 in which a heat pipe 33 is developed as a double-walled pipe through whose inner pipe 34 exhaust gas is admitted and is then reversed and flows through the catalyzer region 32' and, finally, around the exterior of the heat pipe 33 and beyond. A capillary tube is disposed in the space 33' between the pipes 33 and 34. For the sake of clarity, however, this capillary tube is not shown. Nevertheless, it should be noted that this capillary is similar to that already described. An evaporation region 35 of a second heat pipe extends into the inner pipe 34 from the terminal side of the condensation region 36 and is developed as the sensing finger of the evaporation region 35 of a second heat pipe. The condensation region 36 of the second heat pipe, which is equipped with cooling fins 37, partially protrudes from reactor 32 and communicates with a gas container 38. In this way, the temperature of the exhaust gas streaming through the inner pipe 34 can be held within certain limits before it reaches the catalyst because of the variable heat transfer rate to the secondary heat pipe.
In a further embodiment depicted in FIG. 6, a reactor 40 is shown having a primary heat pipe 41 and a transverse secondary heat pipe 42. The primary and the secondary heat pipes have a thermally conducting connection at their intersecting region 43. On both of its end sections, the secondary heat pipe 42 is equipped with folding bellows 44 and 45 which are filled with different noble gases, making possible a different temperature control. The evaporation region of the secondary heat pipe 42 lies at the intersecting region 43 whereas the condensation regions lie at the folding bellows 44 and 45. A separating layer 46, 47 is formed between each noble gas and the working medium. By external mechanical means, the gas pressure in the bellows 44 and 45 may be changed in order to further influence the temperature regulation.
In order to rapidly achieve a favorable operating temperature of the reactor, and in order to avoid having too much heat carried off to the outside, there is disposed, in a further exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 7, a heat pipe 48 which surrounds the reactor 49 in a sleeve-like fashion. This heat pipe is provided either as an addition to or independently of the previously described heat pipe leading to the exhaust tube manifold. This heat pipe 48 is preferably filled with a working medium which is a solid at temperatures lower than a favorable reactor operating temperature and which becomes a liquid or a gas in the favorable operating temperature range. Suitable materials for such media are, for example, several salts, such as strontium fluoride, potash, soda, potassium fluoride, lithium fluoride, sodium chloride etc., as well as pure metals, such as sodium and potassium; in any case, media whose melting point or vaporization point lies in the region of the optimal operating temperature of the reactor, here for example between 800� and 900� C. Only the evaporation region (or melting region) 50 of the heat pipe 48 is in contact with the reactor 49, whereas the condensation region 51 (or fluid zone) is cooled by ambient air. As long as the favorable operating temperature has not been reached, the working medium acts as a thermal insulator or heat shield (the solid material acting as the insulating material). However, when the melting or vaporizing temperature in the working medium has been surpassed, and before temperatures might be reached which would endanger the material in the reactor, the fluid circulating within the heat pipe lowers the higher temperature by heat transport. Just as is the case for the main heat pipe 34 in FIG. 5, the heat pipe 48 is embodied as a double-walled pipe wherein a capillary pipe is disposed in the space 48' between the inner and outer walls.
Another exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 8 operates on the same principle as does that shown in FIG. 7. In contrast thereto, heat pipe 52 has a condensation region 53 at each end, whereas the evaporation region 54 communicates with reactor 56 through the action of heat contact bridges 55 onto which it is press-fit.

I am a fan generally of the UD series of Gigabyte motherboards -- I have found them to be stable, long-lived and rich in the features I desire. I have built systems with three of these motherboards and have never had a problem.
Cons: I really can't think of any.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Gateway Desktop PC DX4860-UR29 Intel Core i5 3330 (3.00 GHz) 6 GB DDR3 1 TB HDD Intel HD Graphics Windows 8
Pros: Processor is fast, hard drive is fast enough, system is stable, plenty of USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports, minimal crapware. Very adequate for a home or office desktop.
Cons: Small power supply will not support a decent add-in graphics card, integrated graphics are not adequate for any sort of gaming, 6GB of RAM is not adequate for Windows 8 (I constantly get low memory warnings while running Chrome and Microsoft Word/Excel), integrated graphics system DOES NOT support multiple monitors. Windows 8 is irritating to me. I've been using this for about 5 months now and it still takes me longer to do most things than Windows 7 did. The Metro apps are cute but slow to load. This is a problem with Windows 8 and I guess all new computers come with it these days. Not knocking off an egg for it, I'm just venting.
Other Thoughts: I use this desktop in a business setting. I need at least two monitors for my work and I could not get multiple monitors to work while one was plugged into the VGA port and the other plugged into HDMI. I am having to run a USB 3.0 display adapter and that has some problems associated with it. This is FINE for basic stuff and will be inadequate for anything graphics- or memory-intensive without upgrading GPU/RAM/power supply.READ FULL REVIEW
