7 years ago, while on a Live Parallel expedition in East Africa, I witnessed a scene. In the middle of the Savannah, on the ground cracked by the heat of brick-red color, from which stick out, straw-yellow, as if in response to the sun killed them, rare and dry bushes with short spines, on the old, with peeling paint stool, was ... TV! But not as big as we draw imagination, and little else with a picture tube, in which the wretched plastic dirty-gray color with completely missing buttons. And this dinosaur technique, imagine, works! From him like a snake, stretching the wire, to standing nearby... the motorcycle, which is operating as a generator, provides electricity to the TV. But that's not all! Another snake-the cable is routed from the television to the nearest tree is antenna. Semicircle, about this miracle of engineering, right on the ground, on which now and then crawling scarab beetles and numerous insects, get out to the surface after sunset, sit or lie people from small to large, spellbound by the action on the screen... as you guessed it, on the screen... football!
All this is quite entertaining, but really I was surprised by one boy who was put next to the motorcycle – to pour into his tank gasoline from a plastic bottle, which he periodically did, but he, crouching, stretching on socks, occasionally jumping, trying through the live wall of his tribesmen, to see (he still could not see because of the rumbling motorcycle), but to see at least the edge of the world that shone pictures of the broadcast football match. For this boy, it was all a real embodiment of his dream of another life!
В прошлый раз мы остановились на том, что в ответ на длительное расчесывание, кожа утолщается и это приводит к снижению порога восприятия зуда. Таким образом, возникает своеобразный «порочный круг», который объясняет трудность терапии кожного зуда, но механизм «чем больше пациент чешет, тем больше ему хочется», не единственный... читать далее
I don't remember any names. I don't know who these children have become. I don't know which of them is in school today, who is already working, who is raising younger brothers and sisters, and who has long been swept away by a road that we don't even know exists. But I remember their eyes.
Достигнув очередного этапа по маршруту Перу-Боливия, экспедиция Живая Параллель, всем составом ощутила высоту 3200 метров. Лопнувшие сосуды глаз, необъяснимая усталость, повышенная утомляемость, головная боль, ломота в суставах плюс желание сжаться до размера рюкзачка, который висит на спине товарища и, спрятавшись в нём, отдаться размышлениям, а не борьбе с одышкой.
The creation of fertile innovative ecological environment in the country is constrained by barriers of a conceptual nature. The article identifies four groups of such barriers. The authors propose a strategy for overcoming them based on a comparison of functions necessary for the innovative development of social practices and the natural mechanisms of a new life birth. This allows us to formulate a number of pragmatic recommendations for creating an innovative eco-environment for a wide range of industries. By analogy with natural dynamics of obstetrics, the approach is called placental
