Where and under what conditions can I buy a license to shoot horned hares?

Since the 16th century, European books have mentioned and depicted a fictional animal - a horned hare.

This chimera became especially popular in the USA in the 20th century. Their capital is the town of Douglas in Wyoming - here thousands of souvenirs from carcasses of rabbits with attached horns are made every year.

Here you can also get a license for shooting horned hares, which is valid for two hours after midnight on June 31, and the main condition for obtaining is an IQ not higher than 72 points.

Authors: Jimmy Wales, Larry Sanger

 Random interesting fact from the Great Encyclopedia:

Why does a magnetic compass show north incorrectly?

An ordinary magnetic compass shows north inaccurately, since the north magnetic pole does not coincide with the geographic one. Moreover, he is constantly moving from one place to another. Now it is still within the borders of the Canadian Arctic, but it is moving towards Taimyr at a speed of 64 kilometers per year.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

2D transistor analog op amp 18.09.2020

A team of researchers from the Vienna University of Technology (Austria), the University of Pisa (Italy) and AMO (Germany), who successfully demonstrated a 2D microprocessor a few years ago, recently fabricated an analog operational amplifier using an atomically thin (2D) semiconductor, molybdenum disulfide (MoS2 ).

Thanks to the homogenous MoS2 film grown by chemical vapor deposition, it was possible to obtain transistors with excellent performance: low hysteresis, ON/OFF ratio exceeding 8 orders of magnitude, mobility up to 20 cm2/Vs. A test of more than 40 devices showed good reproducibility of these indicators with small variations in threshold voltage and charge carrier mobility.

These results allowed the authors to design a 4-stage device with a total gain of 40 decibels. It is based on n-channel field-effect transistors with a local rear gate and is one of the most complex analog circuits developed to date on monolayer semiconductors.

To demonstrate the potential of their op-amp, the researchers used it to fabricate a number of typical feedback circuits, including an inverting amplifier, an integrator, a logarithmic amplifier, and a transimpedance amplifier.

Although the op amp is still at the prototype stage and will continue to improve, the analysis carried out indicates the possibility of its production on an industrial scale.
