On April 20, 2010, the BP Deepwater Horizon drilling platform collapsed and sank in the Gulf of Mexico, causing one of the largest oil spills in history. One of the big dilemmas in responding to the oil spil is how to clean up the oil itself. One way currently under research is to use bacteria that naturally break down oil. USGS microbiologists have collected pre-spill samples of aquatic bacteria, such as the one shown, that can be identified and analyzed to determine whether or not they will be effective in cleaning up the oil.

for the FQ retreat sample swap...
Tried to think of something "me" which was also small & also useful. I think these tick all the boxes...
A part of stencil I painted today but I couldn´t get a decent photo of it because of shadows. An image of whole painting is coming...
I made several samples to try to decide which bottom fabric I wanted to use and how I wanted to cut the top fabric. I ended up going with the bottom right pattern. It's a dusty bottom fabric that I bought on sale at Alabama Chanin a few months ago.

This 5-mm-wide sample holder features a flat platform for attaching a sample of material, surrounded by three suspended chip sensors that are connected via gold wires to the sample. The sensors include one heater (white in appearance) to supply heat to the sample, and two thermometers (gold in appearance) to measure that heat as it travels through the sample. This sample holder was designed and assembled by Shermane Benjamin.
