Graphene
Graphene is a planar carbon molecule, the first two-dimensional molecule to be fabricated in free-standing form. Not only is its structure unusual, but further exploration into graphene reveals other strange traits, such as electrons that behave like massless relativistic particles and a unique manifestation of the quantum Hall effect. Graphene defies expectations in the physics world, but could also hold interest for the lay community. Because graphene also exhibits outstanding physical and electronic characteristics, it has many potential practical uses, which makes it relevant even to those unversed in its unusual physics
Feeling Safer: Bugging Out
"You just extinguished a human life!" - DG
Kim voted REMAIN in the EUref so he's got to get out of IMT Gallery fast before SHTF. London being underwater in a few years anyway with all the yuppies falling from towers. Kim's a TV baby so bugging out to the big city Kim saw in Home Alone 2 seems apropos of getting more guns and expert advice.
Gallery North is an externalised section of the Kim’s nervous system. Exchange Rates seems like a good environment to put Kim under a significant amount of stress. Not so much that it will kill him, but enough to be able to register the release of any stress-induced hormones. Perhaps, like a stressed octopus, he will eat himself
Cultural Consensus Analysis as a Tool for Clinic Improvements
Some problems in clinic function recur because of unexpected value differences between patients, faculty, and residents. Cultural consensus analysis (CCA) is a method used by anthropologists to identify groups with shared values. After conducting an ethnographic study and using focus groups, we developed and validated a CCA tool for use in clinics. Using this instrument, we identified distinct groups with 6 important value differences between those groups. An analysis of these value differences suggested specific and pragmatic interventions to improve clinic functioning. The instrument has also performed well in preliminary tests at another clinic
