Why was the nuclear explosion scene removed from the Diamond Arm?

There were many moments in the "Diamond Hand" that Soviet censorship found fault with: two prostitutes, a scene of drunkenness of the main positive character, carelessness of customs officers and much more. Gaidai went for a trick: he pasted a nuclear explosion at the end of the film and told the Goskino commission that they could cut out anything but the explosion. The commission answered the opposite: the explosion would have to be removed, and the rest should remain as it is, which is what the director wanted.

When was the Capitol in Washington built?

In the Capitol building in Washington, DC, the Congress of the United States of America discusses and passes laws. The Capitol is also the site of the inauguration of the president (the solemn procedure for taking office as the head of state). This huge, impressive building dominates the Washington skyline. Wide streets with radii depart from the Capitol, like the spokes of a large wheel. The foundation stone of the Capitol was laid in 1793 by George Washington.

The main part of the building, made of sandstone brought from Virginia, was built between 1793 and 1827. The wings, which house the Senate and the House of Representatives, were built of white marble brought from Massachusetts from 1851 to 1865. The steel dome of the Capitol, which rises to a height of 86 meters, is crowned with the Statue of Liberty. This statue, by American sculptor Thomas Crawford, was installed on the dome during the Civil War in 1862. Abraham Lincoln oversaw its establishment, and 35 artillery pieces announced the event with celebratory fireworks. The 36 columns surrounding the base of the dome symbolize the states that were part of the Union at the time the dome was built.

The Capitol has been rebuilt several times. It was burned by the British in the War of 1812. The fire destroyed the roof's original timber roofing, much of the interior, and many of the marble columns. In 1961, the East facade of the Capitol was reconstructed. It is on the steps of the East Facade that the President of the United States takes the oath on the day of the inauguration. Near the Capitol are the Supreme Court and the Library of Congress.

The white marble courthouse symbolizes the importance and purity of the law. The country's Supreme Court is located here, where nine judges of the country's highest court meet and sit.

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. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Found a hormone that restores heart tissue 14.10.2022

Scientists at Michigan State University were able to prove in a study that the neurotransmitter oxytocin can help heal damaged tissue in the heart after a heart attack.

The recovery mechanism is based on the fact that the cells of the epicardium, the outer transparent membrane of the heart, can migrate inside the heart muscle. There they turn into cardiomyocytes, that is, muscle cells responsible for the contraction of the heart, which the body cannot easily replace in case of damage.

In the epicardium, there are special cells that can transform into a kind of stem cells that can form heart muscle tissue.

However, under normal conditions, this effect in humans cannot compensate for the massive death of cardiomyocytes that occurs during a heart attack. This is what zebrafish are capable of, which can completely regenerate various organs, including the heart, which restores three-quarters of its lost cells.
