Lyka does not knit

Proverbs and sayings
Proverbs and sayings

Phraseologism: Lyka does not knit.

Meaning: About a very drunk person, unable to coordinate his movements and speak coherently (simply contempt.).

Origin: The expression is associated with folk craft: boxes, tueski and bast shoes were woven from bast (linden bark). Each peasant had to be able, if not to weave, then at least to knit bast shoes, pick them up, that is, repair them if necessary. If he does not knit a bast, then he is either mentally disabled or drunk to the limit.

Random phraseology:

Kazan orphan.

Meaning:

A person who pretends to be unhappy, offended, helpless in order to arouse the sympathy of compassionate people.

Origin:

In the time of Ivan the Terrible, this expression was jokingly called the Tatar princes, who, after the conquest of Kazan, converted to Christianity and sought honors at the royal court. In their petitions, the Murzas often referred to themselves as orphans. Another option is also possible: after the conquest of Kazan, many beggars divorced, who pretended to be victims of the war and said that their parents died during the siege of Kazan.

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 ... >>

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.

Gel that allows you to stick sensors to internal organs 30.12.2014

The ability to track physiological parameters is necessary for scientific research, accurate diagnosis of diseases and monitoring the health of the patient.

One effective way to collect relevant data is to measure electrical and other parameters using sensors. And if everything is more or less clear with the attachment of sensors to the surface of the body, then attaching the electrode to the surface of the internal organ is not so simple. At least, it was before the development of Japanese researchers, which is described in the publications of the Japanese Agency for Science and Technology JST and Nature Communications.

The sensors are supposed to be attached to moist, soft, shape-changing tissues and organs using a special gel based on polyvinyl alcohol. It has elasticity and other properties necessary to ensure reliable contact of sensors with living tissue for at least several hours.

So far, of course, it has only gone as far as animal experiments. But these experiments confirmed the viability of the idea. Scientists hope that over time, the development will find application in medical devices and prostheses.
