Today, on April 26, in many countries of the world, people who have patented their inventions, written a work or done something else original thanks to their mental abilities can join the events on the occasion of the International Day of Intellectual Property, UNN reports .
It was on April 26, 1967, that the first steps were taken to establish the World Intellectual Property Organization, which officially began operating the same year after the signing of the relevant Convention in Stockholm.
The International Day of Intellectual Property provides an opportunity to emphasize the importance of innovation in everyday life and the improvement of society. And patents, trademarks, copyright and related rights as the results of creativity and knowledge are powerful tools for promoting economic and cultural development.
On the last Friday of April, which this year falls on the 26th, many countries around the world join the World Women's Health Day, which was launched in the United States.
The event is an important reminder to women around the world to prioritize their health and well-being. It also aims to empower women to take responsibility for their health, ensuring their ability to succeed in all areas of life.
You can still join the Richter Scale Day today.
It was on April 26, 1900, that American seismologist Charles Richter was born. In 1935, he proposed his own scale for assessing the strength of earthquakes, which was named in his honor.
The Richter scale is a logarithmic scale with a base of 10, the values on which are obtained by calculating the logarithm of the combined horizontal amplitude of the largest offset from zero indicated by the seismograph. The amplitude attenuation by the distance between the earthquake epicenter and the seismograph is corrected by subtracting the logarithm of the predicted earthquake amplitude of order 0 at this distance.
The Richter Scale, although accepted worldwide, had certain flaws, so it was constantly being refined.
Nowadays, earthquake intensity is determined by the Surface Wave Magnitude Scale, which is called the Richter Scale by old habit.
According to the church calendar, today is the Day of Remembrance of the Holy Martyr Basil, Bishop of Amassia, who lived in the 4th century.
According to legend, a servant of the wife of the emperor Licinius, whom he was trying to seduce, took refuge with the bishop. Licinius himself was a pagan and intensified the persecution of Christians. The maid and Vasyl were captured and brought to the ruler. By his order, the girl was immediately killed. The bishop was tortured for a long time and then executed.
Vasyl, Ivan, Petro, and Hlafira celebrate their name days today.
