Abstract: An apparatus can be arranged and configured so that after a gas turbine is shut down due to a detected condition, a higher autoignition temperature fuel can be utilized to purge a fuel delivery system and facilitate a quicker restart of the turbine. Embodiments can utilize conduits, valves, and a control system for detection of a fault condition warranting a shut down, purging of a lower autoignition temperature fuel via venting and use of a higher autoignition temperature fuel for purging to facilitate subsequent restarting of the turbine. Embodiments can be configured so an inert gas purge is not needed for venting and purging of the fuel delivery system.

Abstract: A feeding device for honeybees is described that can be used when open feeding honeybees using a container. The container is filled with liquid syrup. The feeding device can be placed over the liquid syrup. The feeding device includes several feeding holes on the surface of the liquid syrup. The honeybees can land on top of the surface of the feeding device and can drink the liquid syrup by reaching through the feeding holes on the feeding device. The feeding device prevents the honeybees from drowning in the liquid syrup and provides a safe surface for multiple honeybees to land on while open feeding.

Abstract: A process manufactures an exhaust gas treatment device including a tubular circumferential wall (14) elongated along a longitudinal axis (L) with two axial end areas, an exhaust gas treatment unit (52) arranged in the circumferential wall and a closing element (20, 38) connected to the circumferential wall at the two axial end areas. The exhaust gas treatment unit is held at the circumferential wall by a supporting material layer (54) enclosing the exhaust gas treatment unit and supporting same in relation to the circumferential wall. The process includes arranging a first of the two closing elements at one of the axial end areas of the circumferential wall, pushing the exhaust gas treatment unit enclosed by the supporting material layer into the circumferential wall from the other axial end area (18), and arranging a second of the closing elements at the other axial end area of the circumferential wall.

Abstract: Described herein are embodiments that relate to implementation of multi-stage gestures, using multi-stage gestures to control applications, and allowing, under certain conditions, invocation of an open operation (which would normally only open an application or bring an application to the fore) to cause a target application to terminate before being newly opened. A multi-stage gesture may be used to invoke different functions at respective gesture stages of a same input stroke. The functions may be different forms of application “closing”, such as backgrounding or suspending an application, terminating an application, and restarting an application. The restarting (including termination) of an application when the application is opened may be termed a “smart-restart”, which may involve interpreting from specific user activity that a user intends to restart an application.
