Where is the Ice Cream Cemetery located?

Vermont has an ice cream graveyard. It was built by Ben & Jerry's, one of the most famous ice cream brands in the US.

Real tombstones are installed there, on which the lost popularity or simply unsuccessful tastes of this product are placed. Among them, for example, the taste of "White Russian", reminiscent of the eponymous cocktail of vodka and coffee liqueur.

Especially for fans of buried tastes, Ben & Jerry's on its official website made it possible to vote for their resurrection, promising to return them to sale after a certain number of votes.

Authors: Jimmy Wales, Larry Sanger

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 ... >>

Random news from the Archive

Wikipedia archive will be hidden on the surface of the moon 27.05.2018

The Arch Foundation is a non-profit organization that is going to send the online Wikipedia encyclopedia to the moon. To do this, all the articles in English that are only on the resource will be printed on tiny plates of nickel, resistant to cosmic rays. All this was started with the expectation that when our civilization disappears, information about it will remain at least on the lunar surface.

The size of the metal plates will be 17 x 17 millimeters. Thickness - 20 microns, less than that of a human hair. About 17 pages will be printed on each side. The 17 x 38.1 x XNUMX mm kit will hold thirty million Wikipedia pages. The developers want to place all English-language articles in a container no larger than a CD box.

In addition to the Wikipedia pages, which will present even some of the best posts written in non-English, the Arch Foundation will print the Rosetta project from the Long Now Foundation on plates. It will contain more than one and a half thousand human languages. According to the plan of the organizers of the project, the rocket, equipped with all the data, will take off from the Earth in a couple of years.
