What does tobacco chicken have to do with tobacco?

The "chicken tabaka" dish has nothing to do with tobacco. The fact is that this is a distorted name, while the correct one is "tapaka chicken", which comes from a special Georgian frying pan called "tapaka".

Authors: Jimmy Wales, Larry Sanger

 Random interesting fact from the Great Encyclopedia:

Which household appliance was first advertised for the idea of ​​a hair dryer?

The idea of ​​a hair care device first appeared in an advertisement for a "Pneumatic" vacuum cleaner produced by an American firm in the early twentieth century.

The advertisement showed a lady sitting at a dressing table and drying her hair with a stream of air from the "exhaust" pipe of a vacuum cleaner. The text said that not a drop of energy is wasted in a vacuum cleaner: while the front end of the apparatus sucks up dust, the clean, motor-heated air coming out of the other end of the device can be used to dry hair.

It is not known how many buyers of "Pnevmatik" took advantage of this advice, but the idea was to attract the attention of specialists.

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 ... >>

Jaybird Run Sports Wireless Headphones 15.09.2017

Jaybird has joined the ranks of truly wireless earbuds. The model of this firm is called Run.

Jaybird is positioning the new product as a solution for runners, although, of course, anyone can use them. Autonomy is declared at the level of four hours, and the charging case increases it to 12 hours. The manufacturer claims that just five minutes of charging is enough for the headphones to work for one hour.

The earphones can work with iOS 9 or later and Android 4.4 or later. Jaybird is probably the only manufacturer that has specified some technical parameters for its fully wireless headphones other than autonomy.

So the Run impedance is 16 ohms. The frequency range is declared at the level of 20-20000 Hz. The value of harmonic distortion does not exceed 5% (1 kHz, 1 mW). The headphones use emitters with a diameter of 6 mm. Dimensions are 14,3 x 19,5 x 19 mm with a weight of 6,83 g.

Headphones are not afraid of sweat and moisture thanks to the proprietary "double hydrophobic nano-coating". The novelty should go on sale in early October. The cost is $180. Unlike many other similar solutions, Run boasts a good kit, which includes not only a case, but also a charging cable, four sets of ear pads, four sets of attachments for fixation and a case.
