Signed, so off your shoulders

Griboyedov A.S.

Phraseologism: Signed, so off your shoulders.

Meaning: About people who are superficially, formally related to the case.

Origin: Quote from A. S. Griboedov's comedy "Woe from Wit", d. 1, yavl. 4 (1824). Famusov, in response to the words of his secretary Molchalin, that he brought business papers that require many certificates, says: "I'm afraid, sir, I'm deadly to one, / So that a lot of them do not accumulate, / Give free rein to you, it would have settled down, / / And what matters to me, what doesn’t matter, // My custom is this: // Signed, so off your shoulders. The old clerk's system of unsubscribing was the most suitable and best for him: "Signed and off your shoulders." (N. S. Leskov, Nobility rebellion in the Dobryninsky parish).

Random phraseology:

Whatever a fool does, he does it wrong.

Meaning:

About the unfortunate worker.

Origin:

From the poem-fairy tale "Not so" by the poet Samuil Yakovlevich Marshak (1887-1964): "Whatever a fool does, // He does everything wrong. // He does not start from the beginning, // But he ends up at random. // From the ceiling he builds a house // Carries water with a sieve..."

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. ... >>

Overweight gene found 18.02.2019

A University of Cambridge research team led by Professor Ines Baroso analyzed the genomes of more than 150 people and sequenced six gene variants that are associated with an increase in body mass index (BMI) - a standard medical indicator that is calculated by the ratio of weight and height.

The revolutionary nature of the discovery of Ines Baroso is that for her research she gathered the largest group of subjects, moreover, it included not only overweight people (as was the case in earlier works on the same topic), but also those who had never didn't experience this problem. It turned out that these genes in a certain chain of relationships are found in 79% of full subjects, and only in 20% of slender ones.

What we already guessed turned out to be a reality: while one person gets fat just from looking at donuts, another can gobble up them for days on end and not add a single gram. But do not rush to ritually burn your gym membership and stand under the banner of radical body positivity.

It is not that simple. Of course, the program laid down in us cannot be changed. But still, 20% of thin people who carry the “fullness genes” have become an exception and have not taken the path of gaining extra pounds. Scientists carefully examined the parameters of the life of these "lucky ones" and it turned out that the secret is simple: they led a healthy lifestyle, sweated in the gym, jogged and set themselves reasonable food restrictions. By the way, among them there was not a single anorexic or a person with other eating disorders. That is, genetics in this case is not a fate at all, but only a sentence for people who are inclined to be overweight to work on themselves many times more than born slim girls.

But what about 21% of the subjects who, according to the idea of nature, did not have a tendency to be overweight and nevertheless entered the club of fat people? There is nothing mystical here either. Geneticists emphasize that the tendency to "alimentary" (food) obesity can be not only genetic, but also acquired: the brain can trigger a command to accumulate extra pounds as an SOS command, in response to severe stress, serious illness, hormonal breakdown. By the way, "obesity genes" interact with the same areas of the brain that can independently trigger the mechanism of weight gain.
