Which referees showed a red card to themselves?

Two cases are known when the referees showed a red card to themselves: Andy Wayne, who refereeed the Peterborough North End - Royal Mail match, and Melvin Sylvester at the Southampton Arms match - Hurstbourne Tarrant British Legion. The first one ran up to the goalkeeper after his next protest, but stopped in time and decided to remove himself so as not to bring the matter to the point of assault. And the second struck several blows to the player after a push from him.

What perfume component is extracted from the sacs located at the anus of beavers?

The composition of many elite perfumes includes the aromatic substance castoreum, or beaver stream. It is extracted from special bags that are located near the anus of beavers. With this secretion, combined with urine, beavers mark their territory. Castoreum is also sometimes used as a dietary supplement, and in the past it was widely used as a medicine.

Traffic noise delays the growth of chicks 06.05.2024

The sounds that surround us in modern cities are becoming increasingly piercing. However, few people think about how this noise affects the animal world, especially such delicate creatures as chicks that have not yet hatched from their eggs. Recent research is shedding light on this issue, indicating serious consequences for their development and survival. Scientists have found that exposure of zebra diamondback chicks to traffic noise can cause serious disruption to their development. Experiments have shown that noise pollution can significantly delay their hatching, and those chicks that do emerge face a number of health-promoting problems. The researchers also found that the negative effects of noise pollution extend into the adult birds. Reduced chances of reproduction and decreased fertility indicate the long-term effects that traffic noise has on wildlife. The study results highlight the need ... >>

A New Way to Control and Manipulate Optical Signals 05.05.2024

The modern world of science and technology is developing rapidly, and every day new methods and technologies appear that open up new prospects for us in various fields. One such innovation is the development by German scientists of a new way to control optical signals, which could lead to significant progress in the field of photonics. Recent research has allowed German scientists to create a tunable waveplate inside a fused silica waveguide. This method, based on the use of a liquid crystal layer, allows one to effectively change the polarization of light passing through a waveguide. This technological breakthrough opens up new prospects for the development of compact and efficient photonic devices capable of processing large volumes of data. The electro-optical control of polarization provided by the new method could provide the basis for a new class of integrated photonic devices. This opens up great opportunities for ... >>
