It is probably safe to say that each year thousands of workers are victims of what might be called the “let a thousand flowers bloom” maneuver, formulated by Mao Tse-tung when he controlled the world's most populous country.

She likes punk rock, screamo, death metal and all this.

A feature of Beira Baixa music, and found elsewhere too, is the adufe.

During our initial work on the synthesis of the cyclic porphyrin hexamer c -P6 t Bu, by palladium-catalyzed oxidative coupling of the linear porphyrin monomer l -P1 t Bu or dimer l -P2 t Bu in the presence of the hexapyridyl template T6 (Scheme 1 a), we noticed the formation of a high-mass byproduct, which was identified as the 12-porphyrin nanoring figure-of-eight complex c -P12 t Bu ⋅ ( T6 ) 2 .[ 9b, c ] Analytical gel permeation chromatography (GPC) analysis of crude reaction mixtures (Figure 1 a ,b) indicated that c -P12 t Bu ⋅ ( T6 ) 2 was formed in yields of 9 and 12 % from l -P1 t Bu and l -P2 t Bu, respectively.
