The chemistry behind "Ocean Smell"
Near the coast, the unmistakable scent of the sea, often attributed to salt, actually stems from dimethyl sulfide (DMS). Produced by marine algae and decomposed by bacteria from decaying organisms, DMS forms marine aerosols through wave action, creating the iconic 'ocean smell.' As a major volatile sulfur compound, DMS constitutes approximately 95% of marine sulfur emissions, playing a crucial role in climate regulation by exerting anti-greenhouse gas effects.
dimethyl sulfide (DMS):
Formula:C2H6S
ExactMass:62.02
Mol.Wt.62.13
Elem.Anal.:C,38.66H,9.73S,51.6
m/z:62.02(100%)64.01(4.52%)63.02(2.16%)

Professor Ray Palmer and grad student Ryan Choi, the Atoms (formerly Atom and Molecule). Following his divorce and his wife's induction into the cosmic Indigo Tribe, Palmer took a lengthy sabbatical from teaching to take a research trip into the Nanoverse. Ryan, having taken up the role of the Atom both in Ivy Town and the Justice League, eventually left to search for his old mentor, leaving his duties to fellow scientist Rhonda Pineda.
Notes: The laser swords were designed for Ray by Ryan when he was still operating as the second Molecule (succeeding Adam Cray, who was pressured to go work for Amanda Waller by his senator father). Ryan's a bit more practical and grounded than Ray, who tends to indulge his love of classic sci-fi fantasy more than he should irl.
Ryan's a full head taller than Ray just bc I think it's funny.

Chad Beer from Molecule in Malmö Double IPA (Picked up at Sterk in Amsterdam). A 3 of 4. A nice hazy Double IPA that delivers what it should -- smells of candy-like orange citrus and some tropical fruit alongside some pine. The body is quite hazy and a bit thick with just a touch of oiliness. Nothing out of place, and not bad at all.

Chemistry behind Cranberries
Cranberry raisins, with a delightful sweet and sour taste, are a beloved dried fruit. Fresh cranberries are seldom seen due to their strong acidity, hardness, and bitterness. About 95% are processed into raisins and sauce.
Research suggests that cranberries effectively prevent urinary tract infections by inhibiting bacterial adhesion. In 1998, a study at New Jersey State University found that the "Procyanidin A2" in cranberries has antibacterial properties, preventing pathogenic bacteria like E. coli from adhering to the epithelial cells of the urinary tract and bladder. This is a crucial factor in cranberries' ability to prevent urinary tract infections.
