Of Quartz‚ it’s a Crystal Ritual John Berger (n.d.) once said‚ “That we find a crystal or a poppy beautiful means that we are less alone‚ that we are more deeply inserted into existence than the course of a single life would leave us to believe”.

seeding during ultrasound-enhanced deracemization. We theorized that by introducing larger seed crystals to the system after the establishment of the monodispersed sized crystals (~2 hours)‚ we would broaden the crystal size distribution and thus allow the deracemization process to resume. To test this idea we performed seeded experiments using ultrasound‚ in which we introduced 2.5 g of large seed crystals (~200 µm‚ e_0= 40%) after sampling of the 2nd hour. Obviously‚ the addition of extra mass of

Although some people may agree with this idea‚ studies have challenged this opinion. Rather than fearing the consequences of texting‚ people should embrace this evolution and understand that this new form of communication may actually have benefits on literacy. This author once stated‚ “there is no evidence that texting teaches people
