How did Mark Chapman get to play the role of John Lennon?

Actor Mark Lindsay was approved for the role of John Lennon in the 1985 TV movie John and Yoko: A Love Story. However, journalists unearthed that Lindsay changed his passport, and from birth he was named Mark Lindsay Chapman. Due to obvious associations with the name of Mark David Chapman, Lennon's killer, the role was given to another actor. Lindsay still managed to play Lennon in an episode of the 2007 biographical drama Chapter 27, where, ironically, Chapman was the main character.

Why is bread so important?

Bread in one form or another is eaten all over the world. It is considered the basis of life. In many countries, bread makes up 50% or more of the daily diet of most of the population. Where people have low incomes and bread is the cheapest food item, the bulk of the calories come from bread.

In the United States, where the standard of living is much higher than in many other countries, mostly other, more expensive food is eaten. Only 14% of calories come from bread. But even this amount of bread contains essential nutrients, which in percentage terms are: 20% protein, 26% thiamine, 14% riboflavin, 34% iron, 17% calcium. So you see how important bread is.

Since most people eat white bread, and because low-income people eat a lot of it, a good way has been found to provide the population with added nutrients that may not be included in the diet. Therefore, the baking industry in many countries enriches white bread with special additives.

Although bread can be easily bought at the store, if you have a lot of extra time, then try baking it yourself. And then you will have an idea of how difficult it is to bake your own bread all the time.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women.

Strange dreams of summer nights 19.06.2019

In conditions of intense heat, people can have unusual dreams. Why do dreams become more vivid when the thermometer reaches its maximum?

Dream expert Philippe Beaulieu claims that we see strange dreams in the heat because of the intense work of the brain: in order for us to be able to fall asleep, it needs to lower our body temperature. When very hot weather interferes with normal sleep, dreams become intermittent and restless, we often wake up. However, it is during such nocturnal awakenings that we manage to clearly remember what we dreamed about.

Due to the fact that the content of dreams is better remembered, it seems to us that they are more intense.

Somnologist, dream interpreter, and author of Love and Sex in Your Dreams, Christian Riedel, has a different take on the matter. The doctor is convinced that neither air temperature nor other external factors have a strong influence on the plots of our dreams. In her opinion, dreams are primarily influenced by lifestyle. For example, if a person regularly goes to bed late or consumes a lot of alcohol, then in dreams he may have peculiar warnings, Riedel believes.
