How did the pseudonym of the Ukrainian singer Ani Lorak appear?

Ukrainian singer Karolina Kuek became known under the pseudonym Ani Lorak thanks to the competition "Morning Star-95". The fact is that another Russian singer under the name Carolina was already announced there, so the Ukrainian woman had to get out of the situation by writing her name the other way around.

Where can I see the village model model model?

Inside the English village of Burton-on-Water, in Gloucestershire, its 1:9 scale model is built, where most of the buildings and houses are recreated, dwarf trees are planted and a flowing river is designed. The location of this miniature in the village inside the model itself is represented by the second level model - the same buildings on an even smaller scale, only without the river and trees. But the creators did not stop there: the recursion was continued for two more levels, that is, the smallest object here is the "model of the model of the model of the model of the village".

Solidification of bulk substances 30.04.2024

There are quite a few mysteries in the world of science, and one of them is the strange behavior of bulk materials. They may behave like a solid but suddenly turn into a flowing liquid. This phenomenon has attracted the attention of many researchers, and we may finally be getting closer to solving this mystery. Imagine sand in an hourglass. It usually flows freely, but in some cases its particles begin to get stuck, turning from a liquid to a solid. This transition has important implications for many areas, from drug production to construction. Researchers from the USA have attempted to describe this phenomenon and come closer to understanding it. In the study, the scientists conducted simulations in the laboratory using data from bags of polystyrene beads. They found that the vibrations within these sets had specific frequencies, meaning that only certain types of vibrations could travel through the material. Received ... >>

Implanted brain stimulator 30.04.2024

In recent years, scientific research in the field of neurotechnology has made enormous progress, opening new horizons for the treatment of various psychiatric and neurological disorders. One of the significant achievements was the creation of the smallest implanted brain stimulator, presented by a laboratory at Rice University. Called Digitally Programmable Over-brain Therapeutic (DOT), this innovative device promises to revolutionize treatments by providing more autonomy and accessibility to patients. The implant, developed in collaboration with Motif Neurotech and clinicians, introduces an innovative approach to brain stimulation. It is powered through an external transmitter using magnetoelectric power transfer, eliminating the need for wires and large batteries typical of existing technologies. This makes the procedure less invasive and provides more opportunities to improve patients' quality of life. In addition to its use in treatment, resist ... >>

The perception of time depends on what one is looking at 29.04.2024

Research in the field of the psychology of time continues to surprise us with its results. Recent discoveries by scientists from George Mason University (USA) turned out to be quite remarkable: they discovered that what we look at can greatly influence our sense of time. During the experiment, 52 participants took a series of tests, estimating the duration of viewing various images. The results were surprising: the size and detail of the images had a significant impact on the perception of time. Larger, less cluttered scenes created the illusion of time slowing down, while smaller, busier images gave the feeling of time speeding up. Researchers suggest that visual clutter or detail overload can make it difficult to perceive the world around us, which in turn can lead to faster perception of time. Thus, it was shown that our perception of time is closely related to what we look at. Larger and smaller ... >>

Why does a toucan need a beak 21.02.2010

The toucans, living in the tropical forests of Central and South America, are known for their huge beaks. Various hypotheses have been put forward about its function.

It can be used to squeeze the juice from fruit, to crack tough nuts, or to crush the shells of eggs stolen from other people's nests. It happens that birds fight with their powerful beaks. By loudly clicking its beak, the toucan can frighten and drive away enemies. In any case, this huge appendage of the head often complicates the life of its owner. Because of the beak, toucans are clumsy in flight. Some species, so that the beak does not interfere in sleep, even sleep on their backs, lifting it up.

Canadian biologists have proven that the beak of a toucan also performs the function of thermoregulation. They placed the bird in an isolated chamber and gradually raised the temperature in it. When the temperature exceeded 25 degrees Celsius, the numerous blood vessels in the beak expanded and the heat began to be released into the air.

Thus, the beak of a toucan (as, for example, the ears of an elephant) serves as a cooling radiator.
