This is May-spoiler, this May-sorcerer blows fresh with his fan

Ilya Ilf and Yevgeny Petrov

Phraseologism: This is a May-spoiler, this May-sorcerer blows with his fresh fan.

Meaning: Usually cited ironically as a comment on one's sentimental, enthusiastic attitude towards spring, its first signs.

Origin: From the poem "May" (May 1, 1885) by the poet Konstantin Mikhailovich Fofanov (1862-1911), in which this line sounds like a refrain: "Something sad for the soul, something more painful for the heart, / Or did I feel sad about the past? // This is a May-spoiler, this is a May-sorcerer // It blows fresh with its fan". The lines became widely known thanks to I. Ilf and E. Petrov, who used them in the novel "The Twelve Chairs" (ch. 18 "Furniture Museum"). Dialogue between Vorobyaninov and Liza: "- No, let's meet in the air. Now the weather is wonderful. You know the verses:" This is May-spoiler, this May-sorcerer blows with his fresh fan. "- Is this Zharov's poetry? - Mm ... It seems. So today? Where is it?"

Random phraseology:

Without a piece of paper - you are an insect.

Meaning:

Without a document, passport, diploma, certificate, etc., it is sometimes difficult for a person to prove even the very fact of his existence.

Origin:

From "Song of a Bureaucrat", written by the Soviet poet Vasily Ivanovich Lebedev-Kumach (1889-1949) for the pop review of the Moscow Press House "Question by edge" (1931). Music by Konstantin Listov. "A piece of paper" here is a certificate, a document certifying something: "Without a piece of paper, you are a bug, // But with a piece of paper, you are a person."

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.

ADC and DAC in an audio codec can operate simultaneously at different frequencies 21.08.2005

Wolfson Microelectronics offers an audio codec in which ADC and DAC can operate simultaneously at different sample rates.

Such codecs can be used in devices that require separate independent ADC and DAC in the audio signal transmission path, for example, in TV and video systems with simultaneous recording and playback. The WM8591 codec has an analog programmable amplifier to adjust the sensitivity of the analog inputs to ensure a constant (stable) recording level and to prevent overload.

The signal-to-noise ratio of the codec is 110 dB for DAC and 102 dB for 24-bit sigma-delta ADC. Analog gain control is carried out in the range from +24 to -21 dB in 0,5 dB steps, digital gain control from -24,5 to -103 dB is also in 0,5 dB steps. The output word length is from 16 to 32 bits, the sampling rate is from 32 to 96 kHz.
