Barrel
The etymology of the word "barrel" goes back to the English barrel, which translated means "barrel". Barrel can be different, even beer. But the most popular - is undoubtedly the American oil barrel that holds 42 gallons of oil, or about 158 988 liters of oil, too. Barrels of oil is always painted in blue color - probably to avoid confusion with the red barrels containing petroleum products. It would make a joke about the color blind, but somehow too expected. Something is wrong here. If someone had rigged a trap ...
Black box
Namesake black box with "Fields of Wonders" and "What? Where? When? "Is not really a black box, and the orange ball. Scientifically it is called a flight recorder and a recording device securely hidden in an armored, waterproof and shockproof bright orange body.
In passenger planes typically set three flight recorders. Two parametric connected to sensors and sensing systems of basic flight parameters, and one voice, microphones which are derived in the cockpit to fix everything, even the most abusive of their oaths. Parametric feature between the engines on the beam axis of the aircraft. Each flight recorder weighs about 17 kg. And the first was coined in the mid XX century Australian inventor David Warren. Who and under what circumstances awarded recorder romantic nickname "black box", is still unknown. But it is likely that it was resentful ground maintenance personnel airport, which was strictly forbidden to touch the recorder. Generally, all manipulations with the "black box" conducted by specially trained people in an atmosphere of secrecy that nothing affected the investigation.
Appendix
Our knowledge of this appendage is incredibly scarce. We only know that the appendix is somewhere inside, somewhere at the bottom, somewhere right in the case of inflammation should be "cut to hell, without waiting for peritonitis." And it sort of useless. While those physicians who have dedicated their lives to studying the scientific appendix, refuse to acknowledge that their activity is meaningless and claim that the appendix is a "farm" for the reproduction of beneficial bacteria. In healthy appendix resembles a worm that can reach a thickness of 0, 5-1 cm and a length of 3-20 cm. Although the most common length, because of which it is not necessary to complex - 7-9 cm. In the fevered state of the appendix swells to several centimeters from pastel pink turns to blood red.
Rutabaga
Sensation: in front of you is the same mythical rutabaga! Perhaps the most mysterious vegetable. Swede regularly commemorated in conversations about her joke, she even devoted a line in a song with a plate of vegetables seller Cheburashka "Pumpkin and swede, imported cranberries!" But hardly anyone has seen a swede or more so eaten. But before Tsar Peter brought from a trip potatoes, rutabaga enjoyed stunning popularity of the entire Russian state. In the dictionary Dahl even have a saying: "Tired of you tell me that rutabaga." Rutabaga - is the fruit of communication collard greens and turnips, which took place somewhere in the Mediterranean. The first detailed description of the vegetable-metis volunteered Swedish botanist abroad XVI-XVII centuries Gaspard Bauhin, so some antirossiyane called swede "Swedish turnip».
Pelevin
The legend of the mythical strong attachment, but no less (and perhaps more) of the great Russian writer Victor Pelevin to sunglasses, no not a legend - the truth. During his lecture in Tokyo at the request of the organizer to remove glasses Victor Pelevin in front of numerous Japanese audience suggested abuser take off his pants (ha ha!). And when the iconic photographer Richard Avedon, who shot Pelevin for no less iconic weekly The New Yorker, the writer asked for a photo shoot to get rid of extra glasses on his face, he just looked Avedon contemptuous look. However, the photographer did not understand how his eyes looked as glasses Pelevin never took off. But even with sunglasses Victor O. is not often seen in the photographs. So carpe diem, look sharp.
«Yandex»
If you thought that "Yandex" yellow, you're wrong. It is also not red and not blue. He is, as in the photo. Before you is one of the data centers of "Yandex", accommodating up to 7000 servers, each of which handles more than 100 megabytes of information per second. Servers require constant cooling, which is why under the raised floor data center devoted to 50 cm for the circulation of air conditioners, cooling the room. When the Russian-language search engine Yandex.ru only came to light (and it happened 13 years ago, after a resounding debut in the IT-exhibition Softool), she had only one data center in Moscow. Now the room with thousands of servers located in Yekaterinburg, Novosibirsk, Odessa, Simferopol, Kiev, Kazan, and even alien California. In the month of data centers "Yandex" treated about 2 billion queries. Including wacky - like "whether you can already fly to Egypt».
Nanobot
While you're reading this sentence, all projects of manufacturing nanorobots (ie robots not more than 10 nm) are in the research stage and are likely to stay there the next few years. Nevertheless we have today, right on this page, we can assume will look like nanorobots. Before you is a prototype nanobot - microrobot length of 25 micrometers. Twirl was invented in the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich and is called "artificial bacterial flagellum." It is assumed that the flagellum be widely used in medicine, in moving fluids in the body, for example, removing censorship {} shki arteries.
Penates
"Here they are, Penates!" - Love to repeat the caretakers of the St. Petersburg museum-estate Penates (manor house once belonged to the painter Ilya Repin). All other residents of Russia used the word "hearth" in relation to his own home, without thinking about what it means. And well, that do not think, because if thought we had nothing to write, the magazine would be covered, we would have lost a job, died in poverty ... In general, hearth and home, according to Roman mythology, the gods guardian of the hearth. That's why you need not go back "in the hearth and home," and "to the hearth." The average Roman family had usually two Penates whose image adorned the fireplace. Probably, therefore, exhausted from idleness on vacation, we relocate to the "native lands", despite the fact that we live in prefabricated houses with central heating.
Susekam
It's amazing how sometimes some completely useless in the modern life of words continue to live in spite of worthlessness! Take, for example, the word "bottom of the barrel." Thanks to the fairy tale about Bun, which is known to be childless grandparents scraped together in the bottom of the barrel, this concept continues to live among the people, even though hardly anyone saw these susekam. Except for those who are considering now this page, which just shows the bottom of the barrel, or bins - places for unloading systems in grain silo in the backyard cottage. As you can see, Soucek - a wooden box with several compartments in which to store grain and flour.
Urjupinsk
Some mythical place, the personification of "nowhere" and "nothing" really exists and is the administrative center of Volgograd region Uryupinsky District. Town with a melodious name Urjupinsk located on the left bank of the river with no less melodious name Hopper at the beginning of the XVII century and has since stayed there. Despite the fact that thousands of Russians every year promise to "throw everything in Urjupinsk flag" exercise plans, probably a few, as the population of the city does not rise above the level of 40 thousand people. Even tours in Urjupinsk not popular. Although there is something to see! On the ... uh-uh ... Yes, even at the monument goat!
