A series of magical cute face changes

Fet A.A.

Phraseologism: A series of magical changes to a cute face.

Meaning: about people who are unstable in their position, changing their beliefs, principles, or just their appearance.

Origin: From the poem "Whisper, timid breathing ..." (1850) by Afanasy Afanasyevich Fet (1820-1892): "Whisper, timid breathing, // Trills of the nightingale, // Silver and swaying // Sleepy stream. // Night light, night shadows, // Shadows without end, // A series of magical changes // of a pretty face." In A. N. Tolstoy's novel "Walking Through the Torments", a gymnasium teacher, after the arrival of whites in the city, is transformed for half an hour and appears on the street "dressed, in a starched shirt, holding a uniform cap and a cane." And one of the street ragamuffins "looked humorously at the passing gymnasium teacher: - A series of magical changes in a wonderful face," he said in a distinct bass voice.

Random phraseology:

Repetition is the mother of learning.

Meaning:

Used as a form of encouragement for diligent study (jokingly).

Origin:

From Latin: Repetitio est mater studiorum. An old Latin proverb. There is another, less well-known version of it (perhaps this is just the original form of a well-known proverb): "Repetition is the mother of learning, but also a refuge for lazy people."

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. Startup Petgugu Global has unveiled a unique cat toilet that can automatically flush feces, keeping your home clean and fresh. This innovative device is equipped with various smart sensors that monitor your pet's toilet activity and activate to automatically clean after use. The device connects to the sewer system and ensures efficient waste removal without the need for intervention from the owner. 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. ... >>

New DC/DC converter from Texas Instruments 18.07.2007

Texas Instruments introduced the TPS40K, a universal synchronous buck converter that greatly simplifies the power supply of LCD TVs and authorized broadcast set-top boxes that use digital signal processors (DSPs) and programmable FPGA logic. The TPS40195 supports a number of features to improve power performance in systems requiring 4,5V to 20V supply voltages. For example, an integrated circuit uses a converted input voltage for its own power supply, eliminating the need for additional voltages to power the IC.

The TPS40195 controller, which is housed in a 16-pin TSSOP package, has a bi-directional clock pin that allows anti-phase operation with another buck controller. This configuration reduces the capacitance of large capacitors and saves board size and cost when operating with 5V and 12V supplies.

Also, if this pin is connected to the main clock source, then the TPS40195 emits less electromagnetic signal. The controller has excellent current detection capabilities when operating with low duty cycles and limits the power delivered to the load by detecting overcurrent in each high and low MOSFET.
