The most important synchronizer of course, the focus on Sun.
The Sun is an ordinary variable magnetic star of our Galaxy. It is a gas, or more precisely, a plasma ball, with the temperature in the center of about 1.7? 107 K. The radius larger than the radius of the Sun Earth 109 times, and the mass - to 333,000 times. In the Sun concentrated 99,866% of the mass of the sun, and it is - the main source of energy on Earth.
The average distance from the Sun to the Earth is about 150 million kilometers, which is 108 times greater than its diameter.
Extending radially in a spiral because of proper rotation of the Sun, the solar plasma fills the entire space of the solar system interacts with the planets in space and creates a giant bubble, heliosphere with the Sun at the center. The boundaries of the heliosphere extends beyond the orbit most distant planets in the solar system.
In the 11-year cycle of the sun experiencing a surge of magnetic activity, which manifests itself in the form of spots, coronal loops and flares, and in the same in length in a state of relative calm, with its spherical shape is retained. If the sun is compressed to the size of a beach ball, the difference between its diameter in the direction of north - south and east - west will be less than the thickness of a human hair, showed Jeffrey Kuhn of the University of Hawaii at Manoa (USA). It is too sphericity in its sphericity and more constant than predicted by theory.
Highlights the outer part of the Sun, consisting of the photosphere, chromosphere, corona. The photosphere is visible as a bright white disk. The area above the photosphere, extending the radius to 1500 km, called the chromosphere. It is found during a solar eclipse as a light ring, flashing for a few seconds before and after the total phase of the eclipse.
Crown is also visible during a total solar eclipse as a faint glow around the sun.
Streams of hot coronal gas flow into interplanetary space at speeds of several hundred kilometers per second, forming the so-called solar wind.
On the solar wind has a very small fraction of the energy emitted by the Sun, but it plays an important role in the transmission of disturbances to the Earth due to its activity. The magnetic field of the Earth is an obstacle to the solar wind, and his meeting with her a cavity, called the magnetosphere is filled with thin ionised gas. It is complementary to the Earth's atmosphere, a protective barrier against cosmic impacts.
The magnetic field of the Earth's atmosphere and effectively isolate it from the biosphere of life hostile space environment. This isolation - a necessary condition for the existence of the biosphere, including man.
The sun has a complex system of magnetic fields as a combination of faint extended unipolar and bipolar regions. The northern and southern polar zone occupied by unipolar regions of opposite polarity. The polarity zones are changed every 11 years. In the medium-and low-latitude zones of the Sun located unipolar and bipolar much stronger field.
A well-developed bipolar region is identified with the so-called sun spots. Just emerged spot can become a hub of activity and throw away the cloud of solar plasma.
Since the days of Galileo cycle of solar activity was determined by the presence of spots on the Sun, the continuous observation of which are held the last four years.
In addition to the 11-year and 22-year cycles are known cycles of longer duration.
Currently, under the solar activity is a complex of phenomena which, apart from sunspots, solar flares are included, coronal mass ejections, coronal holes as sources of fluxes of energetic particles of solar wind particles flow within the sector structure of the interplanetary magnetic field, the different types of bursts of solar radiation and non-thermal etc.
Periods of short-term changes in solar activity called 27-day cycle associated with the presence of long-lived sunspot groups and coronal holes on the Sun.
Emissions of plasma clouds can stretch out and take with the existing power lines in the vicinity of the magnetic field of the Sun. Reaching the Earth, they cause geomagnitnitnye disturbance (storm), echoed in biological rhythms and health.
Geomagnetic disturbances of different periodicity - an important factor in the timing of biological rhythms and transients in human biological rhythms.
Sun, however, the system with the Earth, first of all - day and night - the synchronizer of circadian rhythms. Sun - a number of explicit and implicit synchronizers. Open, and that has yet to open.
The main factor in the synchronization of the biological clock associated with the sun, is the alternation of light and darkness (photoperiodism). Despite the fact that the person an exceptional impact on these phenomena belong to social factors, however, synchronizing it is more on the solar than social time.
Dependence on solar time (photoperiodism), the greater the smaller the town, or the smaller the population lives in it. On the contrary, the influence of social factors is stronger, the town more.
Interestingly, the share of owls or evening chronotype more in the larger settlements, and on the contrary, the share of larks or morning chronotype more in smaller towns.
As regards the length of the day and night, and other daily periodic symptoms such as changes in lighting the earth's surface and its related factors - temperature, humidity, etc., they are caused by the Earth's rotation around its axis. With increasing distance from the Earth's surface the amplitude of diurnal variation of these factors is reduced.
The role of the Sun Earth imposed daily periodicals in the biological rhythms of the French scientists have shown experiments with the immersion of people for a long period in the cave, where they lost their ability to see the change of day and night. They have some time staying in these conditions are set so-called free-running rhythm with the daily cycle in the range of 36 to 48 hours. Interestingly, absolutely blind biological rhythms are not synchronized lighting conditions, and they have a free-flowing phase drift to the outside (sunny) daily rhythm despite the clear operating mode of the day.
How important is imposed by the Sun man circadian biological rhythms periodicals and a half to two times more frequent in relation to the natural, yet to be installed.
Perhaps this is a typical rule for living systems, exercisable at various levels. At the very least, doctors are well aware that, for example, the natural frequency of spontaneous cyclic activity of the sinus node, a cyclic activity of the heart, usually less than the heart rate that is available to a person under the control of external (regulatory own humoral and autonomic nerve) mechanisms.

Homemade 4 Cylinder Carburetor Synchronizer/Manometer
An extended video of my homemade manometer with detailed explanations and demonstrations of it in operation. Very inexpensive yet very accurate. I used Snapple bottles which worked fine, but if you can get taller bottles that would be better as it gives you more time to fix a severely out-of-sync cylinder before a bottle runs dry. You'll notice my design links all 4 cylinders together to give you true comparison across all 4 cylinders.
Since it's been asked: if you get air in the reservoir line simply blow/suck on one of the cylinder lines until all air bubbles are gone; just like if a bottle goes dry, etc.
And for the carburetor adapters, you can make your own (see my comment in the comments section) or buy them here: http://www.z1enterprises.com/ItemDeta...
Here's a list of required materials:
4 Glass bottles
4 Rubber Stoppers
4 plastic 'tees'
20'-25' clear tubing
4 intake port adapters (specific to your bike make/model)
Tip: put the stoppers in the freezer for a while before trying to drill the holes for the tubing and it will drill much cleaner.
