[ Wrestling ] Open Question : Do you think The Rock is a 1990s, 2000s or 2010s wrestler in the WWF/E ?

I think The Rock is a combination of both but barely because when he made his debut in the WWF in late 1996, he wasn't even called The Rock yet he was Rocky Maivia at that time. By the time he started getting over with the fans as The Rock, the 90s were almost over because it was 1998 - 99 by then. He spent more time as The Rock in the 2000s but even though he was still in the WWF/E when the decade started, he was gone by 2004 (by then he was already doing movies and wrestling at the same time). Then The Rock stopped wrestling completely and spent the rest of the 00s decade making movies, he spent even less time wrestling in the 2010s which is his most recent run in the WWE he missed 2010, came back in 2011 and was gone by 2013 aside from one match in 2016. What do you guys think ?

Effects of surface undulations on asymmetric X-ray diffraction: a rocking-curve topography study

Very asymmetric crystal diffraction was obtained from a finely polished silicon crystal set to reflect in Bragg diffraction at grazing incidence for the (333) reflection. The angle of incidence to achieve Bragg diffraction was varied between 1.08° and 0.33° by changing the X-ray energy from 8.100 to 8.200 keV. Topographic images obtained as the crystal was rocked were used to identify the effects of surface undulations, and the results are compared with dynamical X-ray diffraction calculations made with the Takagi–Taupin equations specialized to a surface having convex or concave features, as reported in an accompanying paper.

Researchers investigate suitability of rocks at Ketzin for storing CO2

In 2008, the injection of CO2 started at Ketzin in Germany, Europe’s first onshore carbon storage site. A recently published paper has reported on the findings of experiments conducted on the rocks at Ketzin, which contributed important information about their safety and feasibility for storing CO2. No significant changes to the rocks were observed 15 months after they had been injected with CO2.

Carbon dioxide successfully stored in volcanic rock — could help mitigate climate change

Storing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) has the potential to mitigate the impacts of changes in climate. Researchers have now developed a way to inject CO2 into volcanic rock, and tested it in Iceland. Over 95% of the injected CO2 was mineralised (converted into a solid) within two years, instead of taking centuries or millennia as previously anticipated. The technique demonstrates potential for the permanent and safe storage of CO2 within basaltic rocks.
