Why did Disney start avoiding feminine words in cartoon titles?

The cartoon "The Princess and the Frog" did not bring the expected income to Disney. After that, the studio decided to avoid words associated with the female gender in the titles of their works, for fear that they repel boys from visiting cinemas. Therefore, the cartoon, known to us as "Rapunzel: a tangled story", was originally released under the neutral name "Tangled" ("Confused"). And the tape "Frozen" based on the fairy tale "The Snow Queen" was originally called "Frozen" ("Frozen").

Authors: Jimmy Wales, Larry Sanger

Where did the name of footballer Jan Vennegaard of Hesselink come from?

In modern European football, the longest surname belongs to the former Dutch national team player Jan Vennegaard of Hesselink, who has now retired. This surname appeared in the 17th century, when representatives of two farming families, the Vennegors and the Hesselinks, became related. Since the families were equal in social status and wealth, it was decided to combine the two surnames into one. And not through a hyphen, but through the union "of", which in Dutch means "or".

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 ... >>

transparent concrete 25.10.2021

HTRANS is an unusual translucent concrete designed by Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV) researchers José Ramón Albiol Ibanez and Miguel Sánchez López

Thanks to this material, architects will be able to create 3D structures, where transparent resin is used as the "ink". According to Jose Ibanez, it will also be possible to integrate LED backlighting into these fragments.

HTRANS is still handmade, so its final price remains high. It is assumed that its strength will be strengthened by reinforcing elements of various thicknesses. Rechargeable batteries or wireless chargers are used as power sources for lighting inside the units.

Speaking about the future of the unique material, the developers suggest using it to create design objects - lamps, decorative elements, kitchen furniture, countertops, flooring, facades.
