Scientists hypothesize that all the particles known in the Standard Model of particle physics, such as electrons, neutrons, and quarks, belong to a particle category called "supersymmetric partners." Dark matter is a form of stuff that cannot be detected with traditional sensors but can be discovered by its gravitational effects. Some scientists believe that a particle is known as the wino — the W boson's supersymmetric companion — might help explain dark matter.

Fine arts contests were conducted in the Olympic Games from 1912 until 1948. Medals were awarded in the fields of literature, architecture, sculpture, painting, and music. The art that was made had to be Olympic-themed, of course.

The Rorschach test has been transferred between the shared file drawers of psychology throughout the years, praised by certain therapists and scorned by others. According to critics, the scoring system and parsing replies are as subjective to the psychologist as they are to the patient, and it is pseudoscience. A meta-analysis of available data conducted in 2000 revealed that "the vast majority of [Rorschach] indices are not empirically validated." Others see objective evidence in a more refined scoring system for answers originally used in the 1970s and regard the exam as useful in understanding how individuals communicate their impressions—while not diagnostic, it may be helpful.

While Lamborghinis are commonly associated with affluent and famous individuals who purchase such a vehicle as a sign of prestige, Lamborghinis also serve some extremely beneficial reasons. One application for these vehicles among Italians is the transfer of donated blood and organs. Because there are time limits between collecting donated blood and organs and delivering them to a suitable storage facility, it seems to reason that they would chose a quick automobile for this duty. Lamborghinis are also used as police cars in Italy and the United Arab Emirates. Because of the speed of the autos, this is another reason that makes sense.

Doctor Strange was nearly not given to Benedict Cumberbatch.
