Rising to 37 storeys above the City in a looming bulge, the controversial Walkie Talkie skyscraper at 20 Fenchurch Street has taken on an even more menacing bent this week.
While the SPX bent last week, it didn't exactly break.
The fibers kept high conductivity after being bent 1000 times or wrapped around fingers.
The device was bent 1,000 times, with a bending radius of 0.5 cm in the positive direction, and both dark current and X-ray-induced current were measured after every 100 cycles of bending.
I know there may come a day when we have to bend to that pressure, but I can make what little we have last longer, and we will not bend today.
Letters are welcome via e-mail to [email protected]'s Greek tragedySIR – You are right to stress the urgency of labour-market reforms in Spain if it is to avoid the same fate as Greece ("So hard to bend", February 13th).

This ultra-flexible battery retains 58.8% of initial capacity even after bending 4000 cycles.
In addition, the FASC device exhibited excellent flexibility; its capacitance retention remained at 88.9% after bending 4000 times.
The bands at 1,637 to approximately 1,654 cm−1 should belong to the stretching vibrations of C=C or the O H bending mode[48 50].
Also, S=O stretching (1206 cm−1), B H bending (1020 cm−1), and out of plane C H bending (944 609 cm−1) were for MS. Peaks at 1456, 1417, and 1488 cm−1 denoted azo compound (N=N stretching) in MSC and PTSS.
