  Top Ten Archaeological Discoveries of 2002
The remnants of an ancient county in Badong, central China's Hubei Province, prospered from the Shang Dynasty (c.1600 BC-1100 BC) to the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), in which the most important period was from the Northern and Southern Dynasties (386-589) to the Song Dynasty (960-1279).
In the 20,000 square meter excavating field, the county’s walls, gates, roads and houses of the Northern and Southern Dynasties; county government, storehouses and slab stone roads of the Sui and Tang dynasties; the civilian house, government district, temple, street and perfect water-providing system were all well protected.
As the remains of the county in the Tang and Song dynasties, the relics in Badong were kept well and is the first one in the Three Gorges areas and also rare in the whole country.

 Review: Badong CPU Cooling Wizard
The Badong CPU Cooling Wizard is a shiny duct thing that lets you connect the top of your CPU cooler to the 80mm exhaust fan that most PC cases have these days.
"Badong" may sound mellifluous if your native language is Korean, but to English-speakers it may most charitably be described as the sound of a small dog colliding with an empty galvanised steel rubbish bin, and it evokes a number of other peculiar mental associations.
The Badong makers are honest enough to admit that the benefit you'll see from a Badong depends on the difference between your case's interior air temperature and that of the outside air.

 Badong S-60 CPU Cooling Wizard: Page 1
The rate of thermal transfer away from the heatsink is partially related to the temperature differential between the heatsink and air, so if cooler air from the outside of the case were directly used to cool the heatsink, it should theoretically result in lower processor temperatures.
The Badong series of CPU Cooling Wizards, manufactured by PCphile, are essentially air ducts that are designed to allow air to be drawn in through what are usually exhaust areas beneath the power supply that are typically outfitted with 80mm fans.
The thought process behind Badong air ducts are similar to the design choices made by OEMs such as Dell to employ air ducts in many of their systems to reduce noise and use fewer fans.

The derisive dismissal by tile administration of Abat’s dramatic move to declare himself president of a transition government was tragically the same reaction of some leaders from the political opposition.
Abat was condemned by some opposition leaders as a tragi-comic figure who, with Badong Enriquez, Roy Señeres et al., staged the work of crackpots.
Before he hooked up with tile general, Badong Enriquez was identified with three things: the Jaycees, nationalist causes and the patronage of powerful men such as former President Fidel Ramos and Sonny Belmonte.

Therefore, the Badong CPU Cooling Wizard does in fact help one achieve lower CPU temperatures by allowing cooler air to be used to cool the processor's heatsink.
First, the Badong air duct must attach to fans, so even if you wanted to only use one fan, the other fan, in most cases, would still need to be in place.
A potential remedy for this is if the Badong air duct could somehow be used with existing filtered intake fans, such as those normally found near the front of many cases, but in many instances, the Badong air duct will not be able to stretch far enough for that.

So if you blow air in though the badong, the power supply will suck most of it out and the air in the rest of the case is stationary (or just blows around but maybe doesn't exit).
If you blow air out thrugh the badong and so both it and the ps are blowing out (contrary to the picture at directreon), then the air has to come from somewhere.
The Badong could eliminate one of those 2, and exhaust mostly air from the HS fan which in theory should be warmer/warmest air.
