How did Lenin's phrase about the cook and the state really sound?

"Any cook is capable of governing the state," Lenin never said such a thing. In fact, he wrote this: "We are not utopians. We know that any unskilled worker and any cook is not capable of immediately entering into government."

Why do gray whales mate in groups of three?

Mating in gray whales often occurs in groups of one female and two males. There are two points of view to explain this behavior. According to the first, males compete for the female with equal chances until the last moment, and one of the whales wins the right to complete the process by chance. According to another opinion, since it is quite difficult for animals of this size and mass to produce an act of conception, the second non-dominant male acts as an assistant, helping the female to take the desired position and supporting her.

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 ... >>

Alcohol advertising affects teenagers 08.08.2006

A group of researchers from the Dartmouth Medical Institute (USA) followed the lives of two thousand children aged 10 to 14 who had never tasted alcohol.

A few years later, an anonymous survey was conducted among them, and 357 of them admitted that they already drank alcoholic beverages. In parallel, the researchers were interested in who of the respondents has any things with an advertisement or logo of beer or stronger drinks. As a rule, these were T-shirts or baseball caps.

It turned out that the owners of such items of clothing are one and a half times more likely to start acquaintance with alcohol at an early age (in the US, alcohol is allowed from the age of 21) than those who do not have promotional T-shirts or caps.

Previously, the same association of smoking in adolescents with advertising of cigarettes on clothes and hats has been shown.
