How did Real and Barcelona adapt their badges for the Arab countries?

By signing a sponsorship deal with the Qatar Foundation in 2010, FC Barcelona agreed to change its emblem, which is displayed on shirts for sale in Arab countries. To prevent the cross, which is offensive to Muslims, from being seen on the logo, the horizontal red stripe was removed from its upper left corner. This example was later followed by Real Madrid, which signed an agreement with one of the sheikhs of the UAE for the construction of an artificial island with many facilities worth $1 billion.

The sheikh demanded that the cross crowning the crown be removed from the club emblem on the facade of the building, and the royal club complied with this request.

What special state of matter was found in the chicken eye?

There is a special state of matter called "disordered superhomogeneity", in which the substance has the properties of a crystal and a liquid at the same time. It was first discovered by physicists in liquid helium and simple plasmas, but has recently been encountered by biologists while studying the chicken eye. Like other diurnal birds, chickens have five types of photoreceptors: red, blue, green, violet, and responsible for the perception of light. All of them are located on the retina in one layer at first glance randomly, however, a detailed study of the patterns revealed that around each cone there is a so-called forbidden zone, in which the appearance of other cones of the same type is excluded. As a result, the system cannot take a single ordered form, but tends to be as homogeneous as possible.

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 ... >>

Why is there no coal in Antarctica? 08.04.2000

In the Cretaceous period, when the whole Earth was warm, almost the entire planet was covered with lush tropical forests. On all continents since those times there were deposits of coal. Except for Antarctica, where only a few small and thin strata have been found. At the same time, it is known that Antarctica was also covered with deciduous forests.

Why didn't coal form here? According to computer simulations of the ancient climate of Antarctica by David Burling of the University of Sheffield (England), the water balance of the Antarctic forests was very tight. How much water the trees received from the rains, so much evaporated.

Therefore, the groundwater level was low, and swamps could not have arisen in Antarctica. And the formation of coal begins precisely with a peat bog: for tens of thousands of years, the dead remains of plants turn first into peat, then into brown coal, and finally into stone. As the computer model showed, small swamps could have arisen only in a few places on the continent - it is there that scarce deposits of coal are now found.
