You cannot live in society and be free from society
Lenin V.I.
Phraseologism: You cannot live in society and be free from society.
Meaning: 1. On the dependence of a person on public opinion. 2. On the civil liability of a person.
Origin: From the article "Party Organization and Party Literature" by V. I. Lenin (1870-1924): "... After all, this absolute freedom is a bourgeois or anarchist phrase (for, as a worldview, anarchism is bourgeoisism turned inside out. To live in society and be one cannot be free from society. The freedom of a bourgeois writer, artist, actress is only a disguised (or hypocritically disguised) dependence on a bag of money, on bribery, on maintenance ... "
Random phraseology:
Insidious Albion.
Meaning:
About the foreign policy of England, steadily pursuing only its own national goals, for the sake of which it can go to the rejection of previously reached agreements, allied treaties, etc. (iron.).
Origin:
Albion is the ancient name of England, known since ancient times. For the first time in literature, the phrase appeared, apparently, in a poem written by the French Marquis de Ximen (1726-1817) about the introduction of a new republican calendar on October 5, 1793 in France. In this work, the poet calls to attack the "treacherous Albion" at sea. Expressions close in meaning are "English treachery", "treacherous Englishman", "treacherous island", etc. - were very popular in France during the Great French Revolution and subsequent years of Napoleonic rule, since Great Britain consistently fought against the revolutionary French Republic - refused to recognize the new state, after the execution of King Louis XVI organized an anti-French coalition of powers, etc. France after London violated on May 12, 1803, the Peace of Amiens concluded (March 25, 1802) with Napoleon, who otherwise threatened Great Britain with the use of armed force. Throughout the reign of Napoleon, the expression "perfidious Albion" is constantly present in the French press and in political rhetoric. Later, this image gains pan-European popularity. In 1840, a war began between Egypt and Turkey, in which France supported Egypt, and Great Britain joined a coalition of countries (Russia, Austria and Prussia) that supported Turkey. The expression again gained wide circulation: Heinrich Heine wrote on July 27, 1840 (Lutetia, July 14-27, 1840) that "perfidious Albion" was the slogan of all the French, except for the Legitimists who expected support from abroad. In Russia, this expression gained particular popularity during the Crimean War (1853-1856), when recent opponents - Great Britain and France - united in the war against Russia on the side of Turkey. Complaining about "English cunning" has a long history. For the first time this idea is found in the historical chronicle of 1209-1210, owned by the writer Otto St. Blazensky, who speaks in it of "perfidious England" (Anglia perfida). The reason for these words was the behavior of King Richard the Lionheart during the third crusade. |

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 ... >>

31.01.2001
The day is not far off when it will be possible to write and send e-mails with the help of a special pen developed by the Swedish company Anoto AB.
Instead of a writing head, it contains an infrared emitter and receiver, with the help of which the built-in electronic circuit recognizes the movement of the user's hand on paper and transmits information via a Bluetooth connection to an external computer. There, the handwriting program processes it, converting it into text that can be formatted as a letter.
The developed software will make it possible to use the miracle pen not only in tandem with a computer, but also with a mobile phone, where the novelty will greatly facilitate the process of writing and sending informative graphic and text messages.
