An officer can only be replaced by death

Denikin A.I.
Denikin A.I.

Phraseologism: An officer can only be replaced by death.

Meaning: About officer honor.

Origin: The original source is the words of the white general Anton Ivanovich Denikin (1872-1947), who took an active part in the Civil War in Russia at the beginning of the century in the position of commander-in-chief of the armed forces of the South of Russia (1918). Closing the work of the congress of the Union of Officers of the Army and Navy, he said on May 22, 1917: "Take care of the officer! For from time immemorial to this day he has stood faithfully and permanently on guard of the Russian statehood. Only death can change him." From 1920 Denikin was in exile. He resolutely refused to support Hitler's aggression against the USSR.

Random phraseology:

Chizhik-fawn, where have you been?

Meaning:

A symbol of a primitive, unpretentious melody, which is usually played by people who are not familiar with musical notation and practically do not own the instrument.

Origin:

From a city folk song, presumably born in St. Petersburg at the beginning of the XNUMXth century. and having multiple text options. The most popular of them: "Chizhik-pyzhik, where have you been? // I drank vodka on the Fontanka. // I drank a glass, drank two - // Noisy in my head. // Siskin-pyzhik after drinking // I drank water from the Fontanka, / / Pumped out this bird // Only in the Botkin hospital". The expression has an indirect relation to the chizhu bird. In fact, we are talking about students of the St. Petersburg School of Law at the beginning of the XNUMXth century. They, as was customary in the educational institutions of pre-revolutionary Russia, were also assigned their own uniform, but in bright colors - green and yellow. For this reason, students of other metropolitan institutions teased future lawyers with "chizhiks", since such colors are typical for the color of this bird. And to make the "teaser" behind the scenes, law students in it were not only likened to birds, but also accused of being addicted to strong drinks.

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. 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. ... >>

Bacteria improve plant growth and enrich the soil 12.02.2022

Cover crop plants, clover, grown in soils similar to those of Mars, have shown significant growth in the process of infection with symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria. A researcher from the University of Colorado (USA) Franklin Harris, together with colleagues, presented the results of the study in the publication PLOS ONE.

As the Earth's population grows, researchers are exploring the possibility of farming Martian soil, or "regolith." Regolith lacks some key nutrients, including certain nitrogen-containing molecules that plants need to live. Therefore, agriculture on Mars will require a strategy to increase the amount of these nitrogen compounds in the regolith.

The scientists suggest that the bacteria could play a cost-effective role in increasing the fertility of Martian soils. On Earth, soil bacteria help convert or "fix" atmospheric nitrogen into molecules that plants need. Some of these microbes have a symbiotic relationship with crops, in which they fix nitrogen in nodules found on plant roots.

In order to study the possible role of symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria in astro-agriculture, the researchers grew clover in artificial regolith, which is very similar to Martian. They infected some plants with the microbe Sinorhizobium meliloti, which is commonly found in clover root nodules on Earth. In previous studies, scientists have shown that clover can be grown in regolith, but inoculation with nitrogen fixers has not been studied.

The researchers found that clover inoculated with Sinorhizobium meliloti had 75% more root and shoot growth than normal clover. However, the regolith surrounding the inoculated plants did not show signs of elevated levels of NH4 (an important nitrogen-containing molecule for plants), compared to the regolith in which uninoculated clover grew.

This study suggests that the symbiotic microbes stimulated plant growth but did not lead to excess production of nitrogen compounds that could hypothetically be used by other crops growing nearby. The researchers also grew some clover in potting soil and noted some differences in symbiotic relationships compared to plants grown in regolith.

According to the results of scientific work, scientists have suggested the possibility that the symbiosis between plants and nitrogen-fixing bacteria can help agriculture on Mars.

"This study demonstrates that the nodule-forming bacteria Sinorhizobium meliloti can create nodules in Martian regolith, significantly enhancing the growth of clover (Melilotus officinalis) in greenhouse conditions. This work expands our understanding of how plant-microbial interactions will aid terraforming efforts." regolith on Mars," researchers at Colorado State University said.
