Cabin time at this very place

Gorbunov I.F.

Phraseologism: Cabin time at this very place.

Meaning: About failures, troubles that constantly happen to the same person in the same (or similar) circumstances (jokingly ironic).

Origin: From the scene "At the Post Station at Night" written by the writer, actor and storyteller Ivan Fyodorovich Gorbunov (1831-1895). Usually the topics of his stories were plots from Russian folk life. In the original: "For the first time in this place." The coachman boasts to the rider that he knows the road and all its slopes perfectly, and yet at night he overturns the tarantass. The passenger is angry: "What the hell are you!" To which the coachman replies in puzzlement: "Come on! It's the first time in this place" (Gorbunov I.F. Soch. Vol. 1. St. Petersburg, 1904).

Random phraseology:

Is she a vessel in which there is emptiness, or is it a fire flickering in a vessel?

Meaning:

About an ugly child.

Origin:

From the poem "Ugly Girl" (1955) by the Soviet poet Nikolai Alekseevich Zabolotsky (1903-1958): "And even if her features are not good // And there is nothing for her to seduce the imagination, // The infantile grace of the soul // Already shows through in any of her movements. // And if so, then what is beauty // And why do people deify it? // Is it a vessel in which there is emptiness, // Or is it a fire flickering in a vessel?"

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

Petgugu Global cat litter 15.04.2024

Taking care of pets can often be a challenge, especially when it comes to keeping your home clean. A new interesting solution from the Petgugu Global startup has been presented, which will make life easier for cat owners and help them keep their home perfectly clean and tidy.

Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Diamond nanowires are more efficient than Li-Ion batteries 12.04.2021

Scientists from the Queensland University of Technology (Australia) have designed a new energy storage device based on a spring. Only in this case, it is made of an extremely promising innovative material - diamond nanowires. So far, there are only small experimental samples of this material, but in the near future, when the production of threads becomes cheap and affordable, they will become the basis for many new technologies.

A nanothread is a one-dimensional structure in the form of a chain of carbon atoms, which is flexible enough to twist it in an arbitrary way, but at the same time strong enough to withstand such deformations. If you take a few nanothreads and tie them into a bundle, you can twist it and get a tiny spring. When compressed, it will accumulate energy, when untwisted, it will release it - this is the good old principle on the basis of which many clockwork mechanisms work.

Modeling showed that a hypothetical storage device made of such a material has a capacity of 1,76 MJ/kg of energy. This is 4-5 orders of magnitude greater than that of steel springs, and three times higher than that of lithium-ion batteries. An additional bonus is that mechanical systems are many times more stable than chemical counterparts, they exclude the risk of fire and detonation. Also, such a drive does not contain toxic substances, and its disposal is not a problem. The scope of such batteries is extremely wide - from space to microimplants.
