Abstract: Browser sharing technology, i.e., sharing a window of a web browser or a portion thereof. This browser sharing is lightweight, in that it does not require the installation of a thick or thin client. The browser downloads and executes code to facilitate browser sharing in the same way that it downloads and interprets HTML for webpage rendering. Embodiments of the present invention permit all of the viewers of the shared browser window to interact with the window as it is shared, and their interactions appear concurrently in all of views.

Abstract: A method of molding a ceramic vessel includes compressing a water-soluble powder, suspending the compressed powder shape in a mold, injecting a ceramic molding mixture into the mold, and dissolving the compressed powder by flushing the vessel with water. A core for making an arc discharge vessel that has a discharge chamber and two capillaries includes a molded core of the water-soluble powder having a shape of the discharge chamber, and preferably two capillary-forming pins extending from the molded core. An apparatus for removing the molded core that includes a water reservoir that preferably flushes water through the vessel and dissolves molded core.

Abstract: A ceramic discharge vessel in a green state prior to assembly includes a first discharge vessel part in a green state, a second discharge vessel part in a green state, wherein the first and second discharge vessel parts form a discharge vessel when joined together, and a first capillary attached to the first discharge vessel part and a second capillary attached to one of the first and second discharge vessel parts. To facilitate joining the first and second discharge vessel parts, a first removable handle is temporarily attached to the first discharge vessel part for maneuvering the first discharge vessel part, and a second removable handle is temporarily attached to the second discharge vessel part for maneuvering the second discharge vessel part.

Abstract: A ceramic discharge vessel for a lamp includes a hollow body, two capillaries that extend from a same side of the body, and a strengthening web between and joining the two capillaries to each other.

Abstract: A method of forming pieces of plastic and welding them together to form large plastic objects by heating plastic sheets until they soften, heating the inner surfaces until they reach their melting point, and pressing them together with a mold to form them to a given and weld them together to form a single object.
