Okay, it's not a bun, but it's the only pun I could come up with. I wanted to take a photo because I thought it was so quaint. And tasty!

Cornell University professor Roald Hoffmann made his wintry way to ORNL February 9, 2016, for the latest in the series of Eugene P. Wigner Distinguished Lectures.
Professor Hoffmann, who received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1981 with Kenichi Fukui, took the audience on a tour of the reactions and changes in elements and compounds when they are subjected to high pressures. These environments are of interest partly because they represent stellar forces as well as conditions deep in the earth, the center of which enjoys pressure equivalent to 3.5 million atmospheres.
In these conditions atoms and molecules squeeze together, repulsive forces are overcome and properties and phases change -- gases become metallic, graphite turns to diamond, carbon dioxide becomes something akin to quartz. Sodium transforms to a semiconductor at one point, then reverts to a metal.
Hoffmann described a number of surprising reactions by materials to high pressures and close quarters, but capped his talk with some observations on the perceived dichotomy between chemistry and physics and what he termed "reductionism" -- that there is a hierarchy of science and a depth of explanation "by going down the chain."
"I believe most of what is interesting in chemistry is not reducible to physics," he said. "In the meeting of chemistry and physics, what I want to do is reduce the belief in the reductionist chain."
He believes there is a common ground between practicalities of chemistry and the theoretical realm of physics, which he explored in his book, Solids and Surfaces."
"You have to use the language of solid-state physics," he said. "In the meeting of chemistry of physics -- bands, not bonds. One purpose of the book is to make chemists less afraid of physics," he said.
"And that there is some value in the chemical ways of thinking."

Funding for this farmer Carnegie library was granted in February 27, 1904 in the form of $30,000. It stands on the Winthrop campus at 1898 Alumni Drive and was built in 1904-05, serving the student body and community as a library until 1961. The structure is now known as the Rutledge Building and it houses art classes and galleries.
It is a contributing property to the Winthrop College Historic District, which was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.
Winthrop University is a public university in Rock Hill. It was founded in 1886 by David Bancroft Johnson, who served as the superintendent of Columbia, South Carolina, schools. He received a grant from Robert Charles Winthrop, a philanthropist from Boston, Massachusetts and chair of the Peabody Education Board in Massachusetts, to establish the school.
Since its inception, Winthrop has developed into a comprehensive university offering undergraduate and graduate degrees through five colleges and schools. With approximately 6,000 students, it is the sixth largest university in South Carolina.
