Were it not for calcite, it might have been centuries before scientists discovered the polarization of light. Huygens found that, by rotating a second piece over the first, he could make one of the images disappear! Calcite was the key to discovering that light has orientation!

The most absolutely massive flex from the state fair exhibit. This quilt is made of 40 years of prize ribbons from various categories at the New Mexico State Fair won by Carol St. Clair Johnson. She also won a prize for this quilt.

Ribbons state the year. Some have the prize winning object written on in markerCarol St. Clair Johnson born 1954; resides Albuquerque, NM O Fair New Mexico-41 Fair Years 2023 satin ribbons After unexpectedly winning her first blue ribbon for a sewn cape in 1981, Carol St. Clair Johnson developed an enduring love for the New Mexico State Fair. The quilt Fair New Mexico-41 Fair Years incorporates more than six hundred of the ribbons she won at the fair every subsequent year except 2020 (when the fair was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic). Johnson earned ribbons for needlework, knitting, crochet, pies, cookies, cakes, canning, jewelry, flowers, vegetables, and potted plants. The title of the quilt is a reference to the state song, and the design places the state's Zia sun symbol at the center. The quilt earned Johnson yet another ribbon: Best in Category (miscellaneous quilt) at the 2023 New Mexico State Fair. Courtesy of Carol St. Clair Johnson

If “reliably average” doesn’t sound like a strong endorsement for #Quartz in #MinCup24, remember that’s an *extremely useful quality* to a physicist! (See attached visual metaphor of the utility of simplifying assumptions in physics. 😉) Vote Quartz!
