I don't remember where I found this, but it's really amazing. The 2005
conference on electron/ion microscopy gave awards for the best bizarre or art-like images produced using electron or ion microscopy. The images range from beautiful,
like the C60 crystalline lattice to the right, to extremely bizzare like the nano-meter scale toilet image to the left.

Liveblogging from the Hi-Tec conference
I'm currently at the Hi-Tec conference in Scottsdale, Arizona. (If you follow me on Twitter - www.twitter.com/@digitalbio - you may have seen me complaining about the temperature). It's an interesting conference, so I'm going to share some of the things that…
So like Vancouver had a major dump of snow last week, which is just not west coast at all. Predictably, all hell broke loose, and UBC even experienced a campus wide power outage at one point. Anyway, whilst looking for some things for the FILTER, I came across a really cool website that looked at…

I quote myself:
But the description of "the toilet" as a 'collection site' for defects is really neat. :-P
Indeed, it looks like a defect via structure to me (connecting down to stripe conductors or gates). In any case it illustrates how things can go down the toliet anywhere.
Is the nano toilet uhmm biological?
Typo in title.
How does that toilet flush? Surface tension would make it impossible ;)
This one is pretty good too:
