If I Die Today, Shashi Deshpande
`If I die today` is a piece of work by Shashi Deshpande, which is acclaimed throughout the world.
A perfect detective thriller "If I die today" brings out the problems of the patriarchal society in a very subtle way. Revolving around the theme of murder and tense nesses If I die today is indeed a great work by Sashi Deshpande.
Shashi Deshpande was born in Karnataka. Being a daughter of the renowned Kannada writer and Sanskrit scholar, Shriranga she has a flair for writing from her childhood. She has degrees in Economics and Law as well as a postgraduate degree in English and a diploma in Journalism. Her writing career began after the birth of her two sons, with a collection of short stories, The Legacy, which came out in 1978. Since then four more collections have been published. She is also the author of four children`s books and six novels. In her writing career the Sahitya Akademi award was bestowed on her. Many of her creations got many awards. Her work has also been translated into a number of Indian and foreign languages. Shashi Deshpande is well known in literary circles for depicting the everyday life of the average Indian in her own special style. She never tried to portray India as an exotic land, full of magic and mysticism - a formula that has succeeded in gaining international readership for other authors. One remarkable character of Deshpande is her choosing to tell stories about ordinary people playing out the scripts of their lives.
`If I Die Today` by Shashi Deshpande is a detective fiction. The narrator is a young college lecturer who is married to a doctor. They live on the campus of a big medical college and hospital. The story gets a twist on the arrival of Guru, a terminal cancer patient. After his coming the lives of the doctors and their families get disturbed. Old secrets are revealed, two people murdered, but the tensions in the families is resolved after the culprit is unmasked. One of the memorable characters is Mriga, a 14-year-old girl. Her father, Dr. Kulkarni, appears modern and westernized, yet he is seized by the Hindu desire for a son and heir, and never forgives Mriga for not being a son. Her mother being a weak person never live according to her own wish. She is a sad, suppressed creature, too weak to give Mriga the support and love. And evantually Mriga grew up without a well balanced brought up. The story again concentrates on the patriarchical society in a very delicate way.
`If I die today` by Shashi Deshpande was published by Vikas in the year of 1980.
`If I die today` is a fictional story by Shashi Deshpande. This is a marvellous novel by the author depicting the story of Mriga as well as other characters. The author once again tried to highlight the matter of patriarchical society and its problems as a whole.

Firmly Embracing the Future at ADIPEC 2014
Technology and talent are the key to transforming industry challenges into opportunities was the key message from Amin H. Nasser, Saudi Aramco senior vice president of Upstream, at the opening ADIPEC 2014, the third largest energy conference in the world.
Held under the patronage of HH Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, president of the United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition and Conference (ADIPEC) 2014 marked its 30th anniversary.
"The best way to protect oneself from, or prepare for, the future is to create it," said Nasser during the session, which mirrored the conference's theme of "Challenges and Opportunities for the Next 30 Years."
Nasser went on to look at how innovation and leadership challenges can be recast as opportunities and what the future can look like as a result of this.
"Thanks to technology, we're on the brink of a golden age," he said, adding that global supply was rising with unconventional oil and gas coming onstream and estimates of recovery levels rising. Resources that only a few years ago were inaccessible or unrecoverable are now being unlocked, he noted.
However, this expansion came at a price, and cost escalation was a major concern, Nasser stressed. Describing a triangle in which the easily accessible resources are at the top, he said the industry is now moving toward the base of the triangle where the amount of resources is greater but requires much more sophisticated technology to extract and produce.
"It is crucial that we all work together to reduce costs," Nasser said, adding that advancing technology will become a driver for further developments. "We must invest in technology as an enabler of innovation."
The long view
Nasser observed that although the pace of technology advancement is often dizzying, to truly invest wisely and achieve the best results, leaders industrywide must focus on the long view and commit to investing in technologies that will not only help the industry to survive in the future, but which will also enable it to thrive. He noted that being in an industry that can be volatile at times makes it important to stay the course.
"The market is going to grow," said Nasser. "We must be ready with the right people, the right training, the right technologies and the right capital program."
Unconventionals: The case for success
Operational Excellence will be the key driver for success when it comes to developing unconventional fuels, and those who are able to control costs most efficiently will succeed, said Ibraheem M. Assa'adan, executive director of Exploration at Saudi Aramco, at a session titled "Unconventional Resources, Challenges and Opportunities: Focus on the Middle East."
Assa'adan noted that the Kingdom has significant unconventional opportunities in various locations around Saudi Arabia, from the Rub' al-Khali in the south to the Eastern Province to the Kingdom's north, and that exploiting these tight gas and shale gas deposits is crucial to help meet ever increasing power and water demands domestically. As Saudi Aramco begins to ramp up its well-planned unconventional development, it is working to develop these resources as economically as possible.
Research, technology and communication
One of the key drivers to successful R&D efforts industrywide is a commitment to research and strategic global collaboration, said Abdulaziz O. AlKaabi, chief technologist of Reservoir Engineering Technology at Saudi Aramco's EXPEC Advanced Research Center.
AlKaabi, who was part of a five-person panel discussing "Research and Technology Development," said that considering its unique position, Saudi Aramco views R&D as a long-term investment. As such, technology is an integral part of the company's strategy to meet the long-term challenges.
He also stressed the need to understand and decipher challenges at a very fundamental level; bottom-up. "In my opinion, success in reservoir R&D will depend on how well we are able to describe and manipulate the reservoir system at the micro, nano and even molecular and atomic scales," said AlKaabi, adding that understanding fundamentals is essential. "In fact, new fundamentals and approaches that are in the essence of hydrocarbon extraction will need to be defined."
A strong presence
In addition to the three high profile speakers, Saudi Aramco — as it has at previous ADIPEC sessions — had a strong presence in the event, from the executive plenary, panel and technical sessions, to its exhibition.
The company's participation in the event included more than 25 papers by Saudi Aramco Upstream professionals who were accepted for presentation through the various technical sessions.
Also, the company's "Women Development Program" was recognized as a finalist for the "Empowerment of Women in the Oil and Gas Industry" category during the opening night's ADIPEC Awards session.

Gender Identity Madness as Law: Male and Female He Created Them - Unless You Live in California Comments
To the accolades of the leaders of a Cultural Revolution - and the shock and despair of most parents - Governor Jerry Brown signed California Assembly Bill 1266 into law. It mandates that restrooms in public schools, from kindergarten through the twelfth grade, no longer be limited to boys or girls, young men or young women. Students who self identify as transgendered will now be able to choose which restroom they use. This legislation ... Continue Reading

California is a state made up of immigrants, people of many faiths and cultures. I have friends who were not permitted to be alone in the company of a boy growing up. I wonder what accommodations are being made for them? Their families take this very seriously! What happens to these young girls when they "dishonor " their families? I guess they don't count? Last night on the news a young boy spoke out saying that he is neither male or female and is seeking accommodations for students who are agender!! I'm embarrassed to say I'm from Ca. We're in the process of selling our house. Just cannot justify raising our family here. We've fought the good fight, but have to consider our children.

One of the earliest signs of this madness (though by no means the only one) was the de-listing of homosexuality as a psychological disorder. Until that flawed premise is rejected, civilization will only continue to push the boundaries of sexual insanity and human self-awareness will become incomprehensible.
Those who have embraced homosexual and transgender personas are not sound in mind. This needs to be understood. People in this situation are in need of help and healing -- the last thing they need is to wield the power to change laws, indoctrinate children in schools, and obtain custody of children in an attempt to validate their disorders.
Love does not consist of uncritical affirmations, but rather in upholding the truth.

Deacon Keith, much of what is included in this article has appeared before in other articles on the subject. Legitimate concerns are raised, but is it necessary to repeat over and over points already raised?
In the article you say: "Though those who suffer from Gender Identity Disorder (GID) deserve empathy and compassion, the objective, scientific facts remain; no such surgery can accomplish a change of gender or sexual identity.' How about spending some time explaining what this means for a compassionate loving Catholic person? How does one born with questions of gender identity enter into loving human relationships?
In a question and answer session with religious sisters in Rome, Cardinal João Braz de Aviz said: "Man without the presence of woman is less a man. Woman without the presence of man is less a woman. This is a difficult problem that we must correct. It is necessary to discover what love is and live it intensely according to our vocation." Would it not be more valuable to explore this question as it applies to people with gender identity questions than to continue the diatribe against the evil of society?

California has pretty much claimed the Sodom and Gomorrah title of America. Just when you thought they couldn't get sicker, they do. Gov. Moonbeam Brown is one twisted pup. This is today's Communist Democrat Party. You can count on New York to do one up on California.

For the price these earrings are an excellent value. They are smaller than I expected (always check measurements when ordering online) so I was a bit disappointed. Overall, they are pretty and make a great stocking stuffer.
The earring description says diamond earrings but the earrings are actually metal only. Silver mid part is engraved with dots. I was disappointed at first but looks great once worn. So I decided to keep them.
These earrings caught my eye and thought that they would be a nice compliment to some of my outfits. The price was very good and they are very pretty earrings. These earrings look nice with a dress but also dressed up a blouse and capri's.
Very nice! They are what I expected. Would recommend them to anyone.
Very nice looking and good for business and casual outfits.
Great product for the price. The size and coloring was very good.
I was disappointed only because the earrings did not have the "shine" or luster that I was looking for. After putting them on they did not stand out in any way, rather they were "just there". Also, hard as I try I cannot tell the actual size from the picture...these were a little smaller than I wanted. The quality was good and shipping was very good.
Very pleased. These are more beautiful in person. Be careful though, very delicate and would bend if squeezed.

Bears' Hardin taken from field on cart
Bears backup safety Brandon Hardin was taken from the field on a cart because of a neck injury early in the third quarter Saturday night in a preseason game against the Washington Redskins.
Chicago's Lorenzo Booker had just returned the opening kickoff of the second half 105 yards for a touchdown, when Hardin went down. He was injured trying to tackle Logan Paulsen on a 19-yard pass from Kirk Cousins on the next play from scrimmage.
Hardin stayed down for about 10 minutes as medical personnel tended to him before being placed on a stretcher and taken away on a cart. He was moving his hands and gave the thumbs up sign as he left the field.

I'm creating a simple database application in C# WPF using MVVM as Relay Commands and databinding. For in-memory storage of database content I use
ObservableCollection, which is binded to the Datagrid as follows:
<DataGrid ItemsSource="{Binding Path=Softwares, Mode=OneWay}" SelectedItem="{Binding Path=SoftwareSelection, Mode=TwoWay}">
when the item is selected user can chose to edit it. For editation a form is opened with a bunch of textboxes with the data of given entity. All the fields are validated using
IDataErrorInfo, unless all textboxes are valid, the ok button is not enabled, and therefore no changes can be saved to the collection and to the database.
Here is how the example textbox looks like:
<TextBox Text="{Binding Name, Mode=TwoWay, ValidatesOnDataErrors=True, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged, ValidatesOnExceptions=True}"/>
But the tricky part is, in case I change some values in textboxes and then close the window, the new values are propagated to the
ObservableCollection, which I don't want to. Do you have any idea, how to prevent such behaviour? I would like the databinding work only after clicking the button. Otherwise the databindng works well, so as the button (dis/en)abling and reflecting changes to the database and to the collection after clicking. Both views are serviced by different ViewModels, data between views are passed by firing events.
I tried to add to the
UpdateSourceTrigger=Explicit to the ItemsSource binding, but didn't help. Perhaps, I'm missing some application logic?
Thank you very much for your help.

We have been enjoying The Mariner Motor Lodge for over 8 years now. After finally being able to plan a family vacation during the same date, my two sisters with their children, husband and our parents all stayed for the week. I knew I could trust the Mariner staff and facilities to be perfect for all of us. Our children ranged from 9 months to 13 years and there is always something for all to keep busy. Our memories began with the outdoor pool, a family round of mini golf, and games in the family room. After a day of deep sea fishing, our whole family cooked sea bass on the grills and had dinner on the picnic tables. Hot coffee started our days and closed our evenings, and the room attendents did everything to make our vacation as memorable as could be, and on the last day we finished up with a group family photo on the huge Mariner Cape Cod chair. We will continue to tell all about the Mariner and will be back next year with our whole family again!!!

After reading the previous reviews I was anticipating a nice quality pair of earrings. These are very light, very thin, and appear to be very fragile. I plan on sending them back.
Bought these for my 9 year old daughter, she loves them very good quality my only complaint is the backings are so small...
We bought these for our 8 year old daughter for Christmas. She loves them. They are the perfect size for a child and the packaging was perfect and lit up her face on Christmas day. She wears them often and hasn't had any problems with sore ears. She loves hearts and loves dolphins....so what could be better!
lovely, delicate . Great gift price for a dolphin lover. Great price for 14K gold.
I purchased these for a friend's daughter's 1st Birthday. They are small, but not too tiny (I have small ears and I could easily wear them). They are well-made, and the design is adorable, without being too "babyish". I love the fact that the dolphins form an open heart! These could be worn by someone of any age who prefers smaller post earrings.

Investigation centers on whether Jay-Z illegally recruited Jets QB. Terry McCormick
New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith's alignment with Roc Nation, the company formed by entertainer Jay-Z, is under scrutiny from the NFL Players Association, according to NFL.com.
A letter was sent to Kim Miale, who is the certified contract advisor for Roc Nation Sports, giving notification of the investigation.
Apparently at the crux of the matter is whether Jay-Z actively recruited Smith to join Roc Nation. Under NFLPA guidelines, the rapper would not be allowed to recruit any player because he is not a certified agent.

WASHINGTON -- Could the decriminalization of marijuana in D.C. lead to renaming the area's famous group of museums the "Smithstonian"?
While it's doubtful, it was one of the jokes Jimmy Fallon made Tuesday during "The Tonight Show."
During a segment called "Pros and Cons," Fallon poked fun at both sides of the D.C. marijuana debate.
A new law in D.C. replaces criminal penalties for possession of one ounce of pot with a $25 civil fine.
D.C. police want to remind residents that smoking in public, possession of more than one ounce or selling marijuana remain criminal offenses.
Watch the clip from the show:

BROMSGROVE District Council has put a new development site up for sale as part of its Town Centre Action Plan.
The land between Hanover Street, St John Street and Market Place is the latest of the town centre regeneration partnership's planned development sites, to be made available and includes the land incorporating the car park and George House.
It comes after permission was granted for other regeneration projects including the health centre on Stourbridge Road, the extra care village planned for Recreation Road and the combined 'blue light' police and fire station planned for School Drive.
The council has earmarked this latest site for a mix of shops, leisure facilities and homes.
Coun Del Booth said: "Developers have shown serious interest in this site for some time because, as a cornerstone of the town centre, it is an attractive proposition.
"We are seeking a committed partner prepared to bring a high quality, appropriate development to Bromsgrove, to complement both the major upgrade to the High Street public realm and the townscape heritage project."
The council has employed commercial property consultants, New Road-based JP Dillon, to market the site.
Anyone wanting to find out more can call 01527 872525 or e-mail email@example.com.

This application is the US national phase of PCT application PCT/DE2005/002041, filed 12 Nov. 2005, published 26 May 2006 as WO 2006/053534, and claiming the priority of German patent application 102004005425.0 itself filed 17 Nov. 2004, whose entire disclosures are herewith incorporated by reference.
The invention relates to an effective mixing chamber for a reformer, in particular a reformer for producing middle distillates, and a method for operating the mixing chamber.
Autothermic reforming represents a promising alternative to classical steam reforming for the production of hydrogen. In the process, an oxygen-water mixture is reacted with CnHm hydrocarbon in a reactor without an external heat source, in accordance with the following equations:
For methane, CH4 (n=1, m=4), the reaction equations are as follows:
Oxygen is generally provided by air. The heat necessary for steam reforming is supplied by the partial oxidation of the hydrocarbon. The process may therefore be carried out in an autothermic operating mode. In principle, higher efficiency is achievable since system-related enthalpy losses are possible only via the hot product gas stream. Autothermic reforming appears very promising, in particular for the use of fuel cell systems as a vehicle drive, with gasoline or diesel as fuel. This may be accounted for by the high reaction temperature (approximately 800� C.) and good reaction kinetics.
In addition to the development of suitable catalysts for autothermic reforming of middle distillates, the operational capability of a reformer depends essentially on whether optimized operating conditions can be established. Reforming liquid fuel places high demands on preparation of the starting materials before they enter the reaction zone of the reactor, i.e. the reformer.
Poor quality of the starting material mixture consistently has a detrimental effect on the conversion of the fuel. To avoid soot formation and so-called �hot spots� in the reaction zone, it is particularly important that the O2/C and H2O/C ratios remain as constant as possible with no fluctuation. The mixing chamber of a reformer therefore has the following functions:
supplying fuel,
atomizing and evaporating fuel,
forming a mixture (homogenizing the fuel concentration in the air-vapor stream), and
homogenizing the flow distribution (flow rate profile).
In principle, two possibilities for supplying the fuel are known from the prior art: gaseous feed via an external evaporator and internal injection and atomization of the liquid fuel. For pure substances such as methanol or isooctane, the fuel is frequently evaporated separately. For more complex fuel mixtures such as gasoline or diesel, there is an increased risk of formation and deposition of carbonaceous deposits on the hot surface of the evaporator. In these methods it is disadvantageous that an additional external heat source is required, and process control has consistently proven to be difficult on account of the thermal capacity of the evaporator.
Direct injection of the fuel is usually carried out using a single-component or multi-component nozzle. In a single-component nozzle the fuel is atomized under high pressure. Examples of suitable single-component nozzles are the continuous swirl pressure atomizing nozzle, which is commonly used in smaller heater furnaces using heating oil, or the high-pressure injector, which is used in current gasoline and diesel engines. Also mentioned is the Venturi tube, which is used for drawing up and atomizing a liquid.
When a multi-component nozzle is used, the fuel is generally atomized in combination with a gas stream. Such nozzles generate very fine droplets having a diameter of approximately 10 to 30 μm. Three-component nozzles are also known in which, in addition to the liquid fuel and air, superheated steam is fed through the nozzle.
Complete evaporation of the atomized fuel requires considerable heat, which is supplied, for example, by a hot gaseous starting product stream of air and/or steam. However, it is important to note that under certain conditions the gas stream temperature necessary for evaporation may exceed the ignition temperature of the fuel.
Alternatively, the necessary heat may be provided by partial combustion of the fuel, or by heating the mixing chamber using an external heater.
In all of the above-referenced methods, however, due to decomposition of the fuel carbonaceous deposits may disadvantageously occur which precipitate in particular on the reforming catalyst in the form of soot, and thus result in increasingly diminished activity of the catalyst.
The object of the invention is to provide a particularly effective mixing chamber for a reformer which allows a particularly uniform distribution of the starting materials and homogenization of the flow distribution, and which therefore may be operated in a particularly effective manner. A further object of the invention is to provide a mixing chamber which substantially prevents undesired soot formation and deposition on the reforming catalyst, and converts the fuel to the greatest extent possible in the subsequent reformer. It is yet another object that the mixing chamber may be used in particular for low-sulfur diesel and kerosene.
The invention is a mixing chamber in which a fuel and an oxidizing agent are mixed, and this mixture is subsequently supplied to a reformer catalyst. Such a mixing chamber could, for example, be part of an autothermic reformer (ATR). For a reformer, the mixing chamber according to the invention is composed of metal or ceramic.
Ceramic is advantageous since it generally requires less thermal insulation, but especially because when stainless steel is used, the nickel that is present may act as a catalyst and cause some undesired reactions. Such disadvantages may be avoided when ceramic is used.
The mixing chamber according to the invention has a supply line with a nozzle for liquid fuel, a supply line for steam, and a supply line for an oxidizing agent, in particular air. The mixing chamber may be divided into two zones, evaporation of the fuel and uniform distribution taking place in the first zone and intense and consistent mixing of the uniformly evaporated fuel with the oxidizing agent taking place in the second zone.
The supply line and the nozzle for the fuel and the supply line for the steam are provided n the first zone in such a way that the nozzle for the fuel is positioned adjacent the feed for the steam, so that the fuel that is injected and atomized inside the mixing chamber immediately evaporates in the hot steam.
Downstream from the introduced fuel and the steam at least one supply line for the oxidizing agent, preferably air, is provided at the boundary of the second zone of the mixing chamber. The supply line may advantageously have multiple outlets, preferably in the form of a nozzle ring. It has been found that a pronounced turbulence profile is necessary to achieve rapid mixing and good mixing quality. A constriction is provided in the vicinity of the supply line to allow the gases to be mixed at the highest possible velocity. The oxidizing agent is advantageously supplied radially from multiple narrow openings. However, the principle is expressly not that of a Venturi tube.
In the method according to the invention for operating the mixing chamber, only the water is thermally pretreated, i.e. evaporated and superheated. This steam is introduced into the first zone of the mixing chamber in particular at a temperature ranging from 350� C. to 500� C. The fuel, which is injected via a nozzle into the first zone in a cold state, i.e. at room temperature, for example, evaporates instantaneously. The steam atmosphere in the first zone advantageously prevents carbon formation. The temperature of the first zone of the mixing chamber during operation is at least 50 K higher than the boiling temperature of the fuel.
In a further design of the mixing chamber, the mixing chamber is shaped as a cylinder that tapers in the direction of the nozzle for the fuel and in the direction of the second zone. These tapered regions have the advantageous effect that interfering turbulence outside the actual mixing and evaporation zones may consistently be greatly reduced or prevented entirely. In particular, tapering around the nozzle for the fuel has proven to be very effective. The diameter of the first zone is reduced to a maximum of 85% of the diameter of the evaporation zone.
In advantageous embodiments the first zone of the mixing chamber is constituted as a cyclone separator. This is particularly advantageous when the fuel used contains a certain quantity of hard-to-boil hydrocarbons and minerals. For these fuels, complete evaporation is physically impossible under the general conditions stated. To prevent the unevaporated fuel residues from reaching the catalyst surface of the monolith, i.e. the honeycombed ceramic substrate coated with noble metals, where they would result in poisoning and thus diminished activity, it is important to remove these unevaporated fuel residues from the gas stream. It is preferable to remove these particles before the oxidizing agent is supplied in the second zone.
For this purpose use is made of the dynamic principle, by which centrifugal force, for example in a cyclone separator, may be used to remove unevaporated liquid from a gas stream. However, it has been found that it is not effective to design the first zone as a classical cyclone to which the fuel and steam are both fed in tangentially. At least 3 to 4 cm of free space should remain upstream from the atomizing nozzle to allow evaporation before the fuel droplets reach the wall of the mixing chamber, i.e. the cyclone. To this end, however, the evaporator must have a relatively large design, particularly when the thermal insulation is also taken into account.
In advantageous embodiments of the invention, therefore, the atomizing nozzle for the fuel is situated at the end face of the mixing chamber, on the axis of the mixing chamber, and only the steam feed is tangentially configured. In addition, the opening that represents the outlet from the evaporator, i.e. the transition between the first and second zones, is provided in the direction of the atomizing nozzle such that an annular gap is formed between the wall of the evaporator and the second zone. During operation the unevaporated particles are consistently deflected into this gap by centrifugal force, while the gaseous phase flows centrally from the evaporator into the second zone. The low-volatility particles and deposits that are collected in the gap therefore cannot reach the catalyst, and also do not result in impairment of the rest of the flow.
The fuel feed nozzle (atomizing nozzle) points in the direction of the second zone of the mixing chamber. At that location an oxidizing agent is supplied to the completely evaporated and uniformly distributed fuel. The oxidizing agent is advantageously also fed in the cold state. The supply line for the oxidizing agent has multiple uniformly spaced openings for rapid and uniform distribution of the oxidizing agent. A nozzle ring in particular has been found to be very effective.
The oxidizing agent is supplied shortly before entry into the reforming catalyst. In this manner the amount of time the gaseous fuel is exposed to the oxidizing agent before entering the reforming catalyst may be reduced. The risk of premature combustion or ignition of the fuel-air mixture may thus be consistently reduced or eliminated entirely.
The flow in the mixing chamber is such that the fuel that is mixed with the oxidizing agent is not able to recirculate from the second zone back into the first zone. Thus, the oxygen deficit in the first zone prevents ignition as well as soot formation.
The subject matter of the invention is explained in greater detail below with reference to several figures, without thereby limiting the subject matter of the invention. In the following figures:
In the figures the indicated terms have the following meanings:
C Carbon
H2O Steam
O Oxidizing agent
K Catalyst
SP Gap for separating liquid fuel particles.
The aim is to provide the starting materials for a reformer by means of exact metering, mixture formation, possible evaporation, and homogeneous flow distribution in the direction of the catalyst device. This is achieved in the mixing chamber according to the invention. As an example, for an ATR having a power rating of 3 kWel, 3.6 kg/h air, 1.73 kg/h water, and 800 g/h fuel are introduced into the mixing chamber.
The mixing chamber according to the invention has two zones according to
For effective flow within the mixing chamber, the mixing chamber advantageously has a rotationally symmetrical design, for example shaped as a cylinder. The evaporator zone I (first zone) has a supply line for liquid fuel C and having a nozzle. This nozzle is centrally located on an end face of the mixing chamber so that the jet exiting the nozzle may be distributed uniformly in the mixing chamber and virtually parallel to the axis thereof. A single-component nozzle having a spray angle of approximately 60� is particularly advantageous. The fuel droplets C generated generally have a droplet size of approximately 30 μm. The temperature in the evaporator section is usually set at 400� C.
Although a dual-component nozzle produces a spray profile having very fine droplets, use thereof has proven to be less advantageous or unsuitable. In addition to the relatively high pressure and energy loss of approximately 1 to 2 bar or even more on the gas side, the greatest disadvantage is the temperature sensitivity in the vicinity of 300� C. In addition, there is strong bonding between the liquid and gas flow that makes control more difficult.
The supply line for the steam (H2O) is located adjacent the nozzle for the fuel (atomizing nozzle). The feed occurs via at least one pipe, typically having a diameter of approximately 3 mm to 10 mm and aligned so that the steam emitted from it is aimed directly into the fuel exiting from the nozzle. It is advantageous for the nozzle to be tangentially aligned so that the exiting steam is combined with the exiting fuel in a rotational motion for better intermixing.
In the second zone II of the mixing chamber oxidizing agent O is then supplied to the evaporated H2O/C gas stream that has been mixed with steam. This occurs through at least one supply line. However, the oxidizing agent is advantageously supplied through multiple supply lines, for example in the form of a nozzle ring. The supply lines may also be advantageously positioned at an angle (up to approximately 15�) from the radial direction.
The oxidizing agent O is advantageously supplied at a restriction between zone I and zone II, as shown in
In a further design, the holes in the collar deviate slightly from the radial direction by approximately 5 to 15�. In this manner the oxidizing agent flowing through also has a tangential component which results in more intense turbulent flow, and therefore effective mixing as a rule.

Ch. 4 Airs Public Service Announcement Filmed at Vaughn
November 12, 2010
A public service announcement, featuring Channel 4 news anchor Chuck Scarborough and filmed on the Vaughn College campus, has begun airing on the network and its cable affiliate.
Scarborough, an Air Force veteran and recreational pilot, was at Vaughn in October to film the announcement. He toured the College, checked out its flight simulators and visited the hangar area, where the announcement was filmed.
The public service announcement is part of the network's "I am a New Yorker" promotional campaign. It features Scarborough, station personalities and others discussing their appreciation of New York City life. It began airing Nov. 11 as part of the station's Veterans Day observances.
"I am a pilot; I am a New Yorker," Scarborough says.
Scarborough hosts Channel 4's nightly news at 6 and 11 p.m. He also hosts a 7 p.m. newscast on the channel's 24-hour cable outlet New York Nonstop.
New York Nonstop can be found on channel 161 on Time Warner Cable; channel 460 on Verizon FiOS; channel 109 on Cablevision in New York and New Jersey; channel 118 on Cablevision in Connecticut; channel 48 on RCN cable; and channel 248 on Comcast.
