The soul must work

Zabolotsky N.A.

Phraseologism: The soul must work.

Meaning: A call for constant work on oneself, for moral, spiritual self-improvement.

Origin: From an untitled poem (1958) by the Soviet poet Nikolai Alekseevich Zabolotsky (1903-1958): "Do not let your soul be lazy! // So that you do not crush water in a mortar, // The soul must work // And day, and night, and day, and night!"

Random phraseology:

Get up for the death fight.

Meaning:

A call for decisive action.

Origin:

From a song for the choir written by the composer Sergei Prokofiev to the words of the Soviet poet Vladimir Alexandrovich Lugovsky (1901-1957) for the film "Alexander Nevsky" (1938) directed by Sergei Eisenstein (1898-1948): "Get up, Russian people, // To fight to the death , for a formidable battle, / Get up, free people, / For our honest land. It was this song for the choir that sounded on the radio on June 22, 1941, after the Nazi Germany attack on the Soviet Union was announced. And two days later it was replaced by another, which became the musical symbol of the first years of the Great Patriotic War - the song "Holy War". Under this title, on June 24, 1941, the Izvestia newspaper published a poem by the famous Soviet songwriter V.I. Lebedev-Kumach (1898-1949), which began almost the same as the song from Alexander Nevsky: "Get up, huge country, // Get up to fight to the death // With dark fascist power, // With the damned horde." On the same day, the composer A. V. Alexandrov wrote music for these poems. Thus the song "Holy War" was born.

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. ... >>

New Mini Cooper EV 2024 13.03.2023

The base variant of the 2024 electric Mini Cooper with a 40kWh battery will get a 181bhp/135kW engine (the same as the current Cooper SE), while the 54kWh upgrade will get 215bhp/160kW.

This is a significant upgrade since the previous Mini came with 32,6kWh.

Larger batteries will provide a range of 300 km and 400 km respectively for the WLTP test cycles. There are no official EPA estimates yet, but they are usually lower, so they will be approximately 230 and 290 km, respectively.

For 2025, Mini wants to offer a John Cooper Works version with even more power, up to 250 hp.

The interior design will be in keeping with Mini's retro aesthetic, writes Autocar. However, even an electric Cooper will receive a physical key, and there will be no driver display behind the wheel - all information will be displayed on a screen located in the center.

Mini will still produce an internal combustion engine model, but expects EVs to account for 2025% of sales by 50, up from 15% today. Earlier, the manufacturer announced plans to completely switch to electricity and stop selling cars with internal combustion engines until 2030.

The electric model is being created as part of an agreement between BMW and Great Wall Motor signed in 2018.
