Adrenaline

Adrenaline gives a person tremendous strength: in a critical situation, he is able to lift the car. And this is no coincidence. In stressful situations, adrenaline mobilizes all the forces of the body for self-defense. Such a phenomenon is especially necessary in case of injuries, when, being in a state of shock, a person does not feel pain in full force, while a strong pain shock can lead to death.

Biotechnologists transplanted human genes into yeast to find a cure for cancer.

Dutch biotechnologists transplanted human genes responsible for muscle metabolism into yeast. So it will be possible to study cellular processes, the understanding of which will help in the search for cures for cancer. Yeast DNA has been modified before, but this is the first time scientists have been able to include such a large and important piece of the human genome. Humanized yeast is easier to grow than human cells and tissues. It is also easier to study them - the model turns out to be clean, there are no extraneous interactions in it. Using genetically modified yeast, researchers will study the process of breaking down sugar to capture energy and create cell blocks inside muscle cells.

Vegetarians in old age are one third more likely to have hip fractures than meat eaters.

These conclusions were made by scientists from the University of Leeds during a 22-year study involving 26,000 women aged 35-69. Perhaps this is due to the lack of nutrients for healthy bones and muscles, as well as a smaller body fat - it serves as a "safety cushion" in the fall. For bone health, fortified cereals with added iron and vitamin B12, as well as sufficient amounts of nuts and legumes - they contain protein, can be included in the diet, according to the researcher.

The neural network has learned to recognize the faces of people in masks and veils.

An international team of scientists has created a convolutional neural network that, with 99.95% accuracy, recognizes the appearance, gender and age of people with closed faces: in masks, niqabs and veils. Also, in 80.9% of cases, the algorithm for one eye determines whether a person is smiling. Further, scientists plan to test it with more diverse images - for example, taken from different angles, in different lighting, and so on. The technology can be used in the field of security, medicine, and education. It will probably work with low quality images as well.

Gorillas at the Atlanta Zoo have learned a new call to keepers.

This means that these primates have the ability for complex vocal learning. The new sound is like a cross between a cough and a sneeze and is equivalent to a human "ahem". In English, it was called snough - sneeze ("sneeze") + cough ("cough"). Gorillas use this sound to get food and attention from humans. Experiments have confirmed that the call is used purposefully. Analysis of the sound showed that it differed acoustically from standard gorilla audio signals.

The heart of these five signs of the zodiac cannot be melted. Virgo.

Virgo is hard to "breed into feelings", because she always thinks with her head. You won't find a more practical and reasonable sign. She considers romance a waste of time and money, but she respects sanity. It is also quite difficult to pity the Virgin, because she will begin to zealously delve into the reasons for such behavior, rather than sympathize. This sign is very cold and calm, it can rarely be found in moments of its own weakness.

Pretender rating. 8th place - Capricorn.

The main goal of Capricorn is to live life in such a way as to leave as little evidence as possible in it. In the sense that Capricorns, of course, crave professional recognition (to a greater extent than all other signs), but as for the personal, excuse me, move over: the fewer people know what Capricorn is, the calmer he lives. So a Capricorn who wants to help his neighbors is the same person who sends large but anonymous donations to charitable foundations, the same person who arranges a job for an unlucky relative through third parties, and the same person who makes a cash desk for veterinary clinics. : at night you have to pay at a double rate, but no one will know that Capricorn picked up a downed mongrel on the road. And the image of a stale cracker will not suffer at all.

5 zodiac signs that attract trouble. Aquarius.

Aquarians are arrogant. If someone suggests that the representatives of this sign are beyond their powers, they will immediately do everything possible to convince the doubter. Sometimes this quality leads to positive changes in life, but more often it plays against them. Aquarians tend to overestimate their strength and take on more tasks than they are able to handle. Due to the constant load, they often simply get confused in their own duties and generally forget what they promised and to whom. Good news for Aquarius: if they wish, they are able to agree with this feature of their own character and be more selective, responsible in business. In addition, Aquarius, unlike most of the signs of the horoscope described above, are able to draw conclusions from their mistakes and learn from them.

One request, one complaint.

Some women make the biggest mistake. In one quarrel, they manage to express everything that has boiled over months or even years. Make it a rule to voice only one wish at a time. When you criticize your husband, he sees in you not a beloved woman, but a primary school teacher who only wants to teach. And, of course, don't get personal.

Constructive dialogue.

When you talk about your claims, it is important to talk about what you don’t like about a person’s behavior, actions, but in no case touch on his personal qualities, otherwise the disassembly can drag on indefinitely. Compare: “I don’t like that you put things here and there because I just cleaned and I want it to be clean” Or: "You're a slob, you always make a mess and you never clean up after yourself" Conflicts in which there is a goal to push the partner under your model, template, as well as conflicts in which offensive statements are allowed, do not benefit the relationship.

How to make your husband rich?

Women do not understand that they drive all the masculinity in their chosen one to death into a corner, taking responsibility for everything. A man will not become complete next to a mother woman. On the contrary, he will become a little boy, a child to be looked after. Did you marry a child? Your assertiveness and eternal piling detract from all his masculine qualities, the male instinct hides behind an inferiority complex and does not allow him to move on. Only the man whose beloved allows him to make decisions leads him to real wealth. She inspires him to exploits for her own sake, and he moves mountains. She gives him wings and he begins to soar in the clouds.

I don't like him.

Everyone has long known the formulation that if you don't like something in another person, you have to look for it in the shadow part of yourself. Seek it out, accept it, explore it, and then you'll "let go”. But you don't know what it is that you don't like in people. If you take everything in and dig it out, it will take a long time. So you don't like it and you don't like it. Maybe something just doesn't suit you. For example, the smell isn't right or the way you dress. So the first thing to pay attention to is what you actively dislike. To those situations where, instead of just stepping away from your partner, you stay around and try to actively redo him, blame or shame him. And you can't calm down. You explain to him why he's wrong, and you can't calm down.
