Molecular dynamics simulations reliably identify vibrational modes in far-IR spectra of phospholipids by Chng, Choon-Peng, Dowd, Annette, Mechler, Adam, Hsia, K. Jimmy

“…The properties of self-assembled phospholipid membranes are of essential importance in biochemistry and physical chemistry, providing a platform for many cellular life functions. Far-infrared (far-IR) vibrational spectroscopy, on the other hand, is a highly information-rich method to characterize intermolecular interactions and collective behaviour of lipids that can help explain, e.g., chain packing, thermodynamic phase behaviour, and sequestration. …”

In memory of Aureliano's ice. by Ho, Jia Xuan.

“…For a man with seventeen sons, thirty odd wars under his belt and a relatively dysfunctional family, the fact that Colonel Aureliano Buendía figures his experience with ice as the defining moment in his life is intriguing to say the least. Going through the chain of events leading to the fateful encounter, he does not remember the acrobats with gold-capped teeth or the jugglers with six arms, nor the thousand more inventions so ingenious and unusual that his father wanted to invent a memory machine so that he could remember them all; in the critical moments right before his death, the other events are fleeting, yet “for the first time since his youth he knowingly fell into a trap of nostalgia and relived that prodigious afternoon of the gypsies when his father took him to see ice” (García Márquez 266-267). …”
