Diethylstilbestrol (DES, spelled diethylstilboestrol in British English) is a synthetic nonsteroidal estrogen that was first synthesized in 1938. Human exposure to DES occurred through diverse sources, such as dietary ingestion from supplemented cattle feed and medical treatment for certain conditions, including breast and prostate cancers. From about 1940 to 1970, DES was given to pregnant women under the mistaken belief it would reduce the risk of pregnancy complications and losses. In 1971, DES was shown to cause a rare vaginal tumor in girls and women who had been exposed to this drug in utero. The United States Food and Drug Administration subsequently withdrew DES from use in pregnant women. Follow-up studies have indicated that DES also has the potential to cause a variety of significant adverse medical complication during the lifetime of those exposed.[1] The United States National Cancer Institute recommends[2] that women born to mothers who took DES undergo special medical exams on a regular basis to screen for complications as a result of the drug. Women exposed to DES are commonly referred to as "DES daughters".

Image acquired with a Tecnai Spirit Transmission Electron Microscope, 120 kV LaB6 emitter featured with BioTwin lenses, detected by means of a Veleta 2048x2048 wide angle camera. The image was taken on November 16st, 2016 at a magnification of 50000x. The subject is a polystyrene particle synthesized by means of dispersion polymerization in ethanol and dried on a 300 mesh copper grid. The sample also contains Magnetic Magnetite nanoparticles synthesized by thermal decomposition of Iron Pentacarbonyl and dispersed in the Sample.

A larger polymer nanoparticle, and a small magnetite one. Opportunely filtered and colored, a microscope image of two extremely small objects ends up to be similar to an infrared telescope image of two extremely large ones, perhaps a burning star and a small planet orbiting around it. Was that small planet born out of the star, does it owe its existence to it? Or is it something completely different, coming from far and just passing by? Will it be captured or will it escape? ¦ Image#1_48

Nos encontramos junto a LollyBelly y Candynuts, las autodenominadas Vampicaramelas. Después de muchos siglos de estudio de todos los tipos de dulces de cada rincón del mundo han conseguido sintetizar una sustancia de la que se alimentan y con la que, aseguran, podrán prescindir de la sangre para siempre.

“Nadie confiaba en nosotras”, confiesa LollyBelly. “Hemos sido el hazmerreír del mundo vampírico durante siglos. Ahora todos vienen a nosotros suplicando que desvelemos nuestra fórmula secreta”.

“No somos una ONG. Bastante ha decaído nuestra reputación como para ahora revelar nuestro secreto”, se lamenta Candynuts. “ ¡Chuparos esa, vampiros envidiosos!”

 

 

We are situated next to Lollybelly and Candynuts, the self-styled Candyvamps.

After many centuries of study of all kind of sweets of every corner of the world they achived to synthesize a substance that they feed of and, as they assure, they will be able to do without blood forever.

“Nobody believed in us”, complains Lollybelly. “We have been the laughing stock of the vampiric world for centuries. And now they all come to us begging us to reveal our secret formula”.

“We are not a NGO. We already had enough seeing our reputation ruined, so we are not going to reveal our precious secret”, complains Candynuts. “Go to hell, envious vampires!”

Mercedes-Benz Museum, Stuttgart, Germany, architect UN Studio, 2001–2006

The Museum’s sophisticated geometry synthesizes structural and programmatic organizations resulting in a new landmark building celebrating a legendary car. The geometric model employed is based on the trefoil organization. The building’s program is distributed over the surfaces which ascend incrementally from ground level, spiraling around a central atrium. The Museum experience begins with visitors traveling up through the atrium to the top floor from where they follow the two main paths that unfold chronologically as they descend through the building. The two main trajectories, one being the car and truck collection and the other consisting of historical displays called the Legend rooms, spiral downwards on the perimeter of the display platforms, intersecting with each other at several points allowing the visitor to change routes.

This 2-day workshop brought representatives from countries across Africa, Asia and Latin America in order to share their experiences in developing plans for the agriculture and livestock sector, in order to synthesize lessons learned and identify future research and capacity needs for national adaptation plans (NAPs). The workshop discussed lessons from the CCAFS’ report, “Meta Synthesis of National Adaptation Plans and Policies: West and East Africa and South Asia,” testing an analytical framework to measure country needs and progress. The key audience included national-level adaptation and agriculture decision-makers.

This green sea slug – found on the East coast of the US and Canada -- has an interesting ability: It can synthesize the green pigment chemical chlorophyll like a plant. Researcher Sidney K. Pierce, working at the University of South Florida, used a radioactive tracing technique to make sure the slug it actually producing the chemical and not nearby algae. Photosynthesis is a process of converting carbon dioxide into another compound using sunlight.

The synthetic opioid methadone was first developed in the year 1937, in Germany. In the USA was first brought to market by the pharmaceutical company Eli Lilly and Company. It was in the year 1937 that methadone/dolophine, first came to be synthesized by Max Bockmühl and Gustav Ehrhart, two German scientists at IG Farben (that is, Hoechst-Am-Main, which comes under Frankfurt, Germany). They synthesized this opioid in the course of their quest to discover an analgesic which would prove easier to use in surgeries (as well as less potentially addictive) than morphine.

 

Bockmühl and Ehrhart proceeded to file a patent application for a synthetic substance which they named Hoechst 10820 or polamidon on September 11, 1941. Subsequently in the year 1947 Eli Lilly and Company introduced methadone as an analgesic in the United States.

Overturned cross-bedding in the Pennsylvanian of Ohio, USA.

 

Cross-bedding is a common sedimentary structure - it refers to tilted layers between horizontal layers. Crossbeds form in a one-direction current by wind or water. They are common in many sandstones.

 

Overturned cross-bedding is a rare sedimentary structure - the upper parts of a crossbed set are tilted upside down. It forms by one-directional shear by the same process that produced the crossbeds in the first place (e.g., 1-directional stream current or 1-direction water current). Overturned crossbeds may often be formed in nature, but subsequent, partial erosion of crossbed sets usually removes all traces of their presence.

 

I've seen overturned cross-bedding in the field in Ohio, Wisconsin, and Utah. The best examples I've ever seen are in the Lower Pennsylvanian Sharon Formation of northeastern Ohio. Seen above is an outcrop at Virginia Kendall Ledges in Cuyahoga Valley National Park. They can also be seen at Cuyahoga Gorge in the town of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio.

-----------------------------

(Synthesized from info. provided by several geologists during the 2003 Annual Field Conference of the Great Lakes Section, Society of Economic Paleontologists and Mineralogists):

 

The Lower Pennsylvanian Sharon Formation is a 10-15 meter thick, ledge-forming, erosion-resistant unit. The Sharon is paleovalley-filling in places, so it is thicker than 10-15 meters in some spots. The jointing patterns of the Sharon Formation allow for 3-D examination around large blocks of outcrop - can see the 3-D architecture of sedimentary structures. The Pottsville Group lies over a major unconformity, which was formed by eustatic sealevel fall & erosion. The Sharon Formation is the basal unit of the Pottsville sediments over this unconformity. In terms of the tectonic setting, this is in the Appalachian Foreland Basin. What influenced sedimentation and sediment supply of the Sharon Formation during the Early Pennsylvanian? Probably a migrating forebulge and Early Pennsylvanian climatic changes. The Sharon is correlatable with the Olean Conglomerate in Pennsylvania. Both the Sharon and the Olean are time-equivalent to the Tumbling Hill Member & the Huylkill Member of the lower Pottsville Formation of central Pennsylvania (both of those members are below the major unconformity in Pennsylvania, unlike in northeastern Ohio). The Sharon Conglomerate/Formation & the Olean Conglomerate were deposited under strong north-to-south paleoflow conditions.

 

About twelve lithofacies can be seen in the Sharon Formation in the Akron, Ohio area. The Sharon Formation is dominantly conglomerate and sandstone, with lots of sedimentary structures. It is light on fine-grained materials. The Sharon has horizontally bedded gravels, cross-bedded gravels (including trough and tabular cross bedding), deformed/overturned cross-bed sets, basal scours up to 2 meters deep (but typically 0.5 to 1 meter deep; scours are backfilled by dune/bar back migration), whole channel fills, chute fills, and gravel bar platform deposits (usually 1-2 meters thick in the Sharon; these include bar head deposits, bar core deposits, bar tail deposits, and bar margin deposits - can usually use the presence of imbricated clasts to ID bar-head & bar-core portions of gravel bar platforms, but in the Sharon, clasts are mostly spheroidal, so it is difficult to tell specific portions of gravel platforms here). In the gravel-rich Sharon deposits, get calculated average bankfull depths of 2.1 meters, 19.9 meter average paleochannel widths, and 34.3 meter maximum paleochannel widths. Get different numbers for the sandy Sharon deposits. The Sharon is typically more conglomeratic at the base & more sandy near the top. The Sharon’s interpreted depositional environment is gravel & sand bedload streams. Paleovalleys underneath the Sharon Formation were formed when the subsidence rate was greater than the sediment supply. Paleovalley backfilling (i.e., Sharon deposits) occurred when the subsidence rate was less than the sediment supply. The change in fluvial style seen in Sharon deposits is probably due to filling & overtopping of paleovalleys.

 

Beds of the Sharon Formation are usually cliff-forming. The Sharon in the Akron area consists of quartz-pebble conglomerate & quartzose sandstone & pebbly quartzose sandstone & sandy quartz-pebble conglomerate & some lenses or thin intervals of granulestone. The basal Sharon is conglomeratic - the “lower conglomerate”. An “upper conglomerate” can be seen in places - it is usually quite thin (1-2 pebbles thick in places), and in some places, it splits into two horizons; in some places it’s not there at all. Pebbles are almost entirely white vein quartz, with an uncertain source from the north. Detrital muscovite in the Sharon has been dated to about 370 and 406 Ma (Devonian), so the source area includes Acadian Orogeny materials. The Sharon has relatively common cross-bedding, with a few overturned cross-beds visible in areas. Abundant iron oxide staining is present in the Sharon sandstones, with a variety of morphologies - this can weather out as resistant ridges or as 3-D surfaces. Many vugs have thick goethite linings. Many goethite-stained quartz pebbles are present. Seeps & springs occur sporadically along the sandstones of the lower Sharon Formation in places. These spring waters have widely variable pH and TDS (total dissolved solids). Some dry springs are present - conduits without water emerging. A few places in basal Sharon strata have obvious rip-up shale clasts, derived from uppermost Meadville Shale beds (below the Mississippian-Pennsylvanian unconformity). One outcrop is known with many Meadville Shale clasts mixed in with Sharon quartz pebbles - this appears to represent paleobank failure of Meadville material during near-earliest Sharon deposition.

 

Virginia Kendall Ledges is an isolated platform of Sharon Formation, surrounded by a lower land surface of Lower Mississippian Cuyahoga Formation shales & siltstones & sandstones. The lower Sharon Formation at this site is quite pebbly - many pebble-filled channelform features are present. Upon 3-D examination of their architecture, these are not channels or chutes, but are interpreted by Professor Neil Wells as bar confluence scours with subsequent pebble fills. The edges of the Virginia Kendall Ledges platform have large Sharon blocks separating from the rest of the platform. Abundant overturned recumbent cross beds are present - some of the world's best developed and best exposed examples. The mechanism by which crossbeds get overturned seems straightforward (unidirectional shear by fluvial currents), but the cause is not clearly understood - some cohesive agent may be required? Someone suggested biomats. Some of the scour pits in this area seem to have fairly steep margins - perhaps whatever cohesive agent was responsible for simple deformation of crossbeds was also responsible for overly steep, stable margins of depressions/chutes/channels/scours.
