  • Re: Metal ion charge - superscript in Excel graph axis?????

    Updated: 2012-04-30 01:54:21
    I don't know why superscripts have to be so hard in Excel in general. I think it's even more of a pain to make superscript inside regular cells. Especially if you have a whole column of formulas that you want to have sub- or superscript... very annoying.

    Thanks azmanam, why do they have to make it so difficult to find such things out?Of course I never read the instructions. Perhaps Excel should come with a MSDS?

  • Tempest in a Teapot. Philosophy-v-Physics.

    Updated: 2012-04-29 05:03:24
    A minor snit has broken out between outspoken physicist Lawrence Krauss of Arizona State University and, well, the philosophers of the world. Krauss has become a darling of the cable TV world of NatGeo and the Science Channel. It seems that you can’t swing a dead cat without knocking over the same dozen television astronomer/cosmologists and [...]

    The problem of the origin of Cu:Sn bronze has intrigued historians for many years. Bronze artifacts have been dated to 5000 BCE on the Iranian Plateau.  It is thought that the earliest bronzes were arsenical in nature. The presence of arsenic in copper metal or copper ore is not uncommon. Copper can be found as the [...]

  • Mining Asteroids

    Updated: 2012-04-25 12:26:56
    The founders of the Silicon Valley startup, Planetary Resources, have announced plans for mining asteroids for valuable metals. Peter Diamandis, Eric Anderson and investors including director James Cameron and Google CEO Larry Page are behind this venture. I’m trying to be positive here. Perhaps these fellows should visit some earthly mines and see what it [...]

  • Z Gradient Shimming. Three sentences.

  • Time to Leave Afghanistan

    Updated: 2012-04-18 01:56:18
    It is time to withdraw our soldiers from Afghanistan. The latest example of moral depravity exhibited by members of our armed forces shows the effects of prolonged war on our citizens. The US is at war with not so much an insurgency as an idea. An idea is not a form of concentrated power. It [...]

    I just returned from a visit to China (and its WordPress blocking Great Firewall) so I figured now it's a good time to make my first post on Chem-Blog.

  • Magnetic grapes and NMR

    Updated: 2012-04-16 07:55:23
    When I was an undergrad I found NMR to be one of the trickiest techniques to get my head around. I think it was because the technique involves so many concepts that run counter to everything we've learnt before. After all in school we get told about ferromagnets and thats it. Then at uni suddenly [...]

  • Early Adventures with Nitrates and Tartaric Acid

    Updated: 2012-04-12 01:18:47
    It is a misconception that renaissance alchemists were only concerned with the philosophers stone. Hermetic alchemy was an overlap of alchemical practice within a mystical or spiritual framework. This branch of alchemy and its practitioners are perhaps better known in the popular literature than the alchemists who might be regarded as more pragmatic experimentalists. Many alchemists over history [...]

    The Spanish Inquisition lasted from 1478 to 1834 and was started by the monarchs Ferdinand II and Isabella.  The marriage of Ferdinand II of Aragon to Isabella of Castile united two kingdoms on the Iberian pennisula.  The Spanish Inquisition was set apart from the long running and contemporary papal inquisitions through a special papal bull issued from Pope [...]
