Focus Description:

The magician forces two marked coins, wrapped in different handkerchiefs, to end up in one of them.

Focus secret:

Having hidden your own penny in the palm of your right hand, cover this hand with one of the handkerchiefs lent to you.

This handkerchief will contain a fake penny that you can hold between your thumb and any other finger.

Holding the outstretched handkerchief over your open hand, you take the marked penny with your left hand and place it on the handkerchief as if to wrap it, but at the same time, with your third finger, bring the fold of the handkerchief under the counterfeit penny on your right hand.

Then for one minute turn the handkerchief over to your left hand, forcing the marked penny to fall on it, at the same time wrap the above-mentioned fold around the counterfeit penny.

The audience sees the outline of a coin wrapped in a handkerchief and, of course, they believe that this coin is the marked penny that you put there. In reality, this is your own penny, moreover, wrapped only in the outer fold.

Now give someone a handkerchief, telling him to keep the coin tight.

The marked penny remained in your left hand, and the marked metal ruble lies on the table.

Before you take this ruble, you transfer the kopeck to your right hand and hide it in the palm of your hand; then take the ruble, holding it with your fingertips. Unfold the second handkerchief in the open palm of your left hand.

Lightly put a ruble on it and with the same movement drop a penny from your palm onto a handkerchief. Two coins are now (covered with the right hand) on a handkerchief at a distance of 5 cm from one another.

Hold them both in your left hand and turn your hand up so that the ends of the handkerchief hang from under it.

With your right hand, take a handkerchief 13-14 cm below the coins. Take one of them through the handkerchief between the thumb and some other finger of the left hand, allowing the other coin to fall freely inside the handkerchief, then ask someone to hold the coin you have taken in the same way as the first, but in a horizontal position.

This position is necessary so that two coins cannot, accidentally ringing, prematurely reveal their joint presence in the handkerchief.

Now you declare that you can make both coins end up in one handkerchief.

You ask the viewer, who is holding the first handkerchief, to move his hand 11-13 cm below the coin, which gives you room to act. Having previously indicated that your hand is empty, you lightly rub the counterfeit penny through the tiles between your thumb and some other finger.

Wrapped only in folds, it thus quickly falls into your hand, no one will think to see if it is marked or not. Taking it with your left hand in the position for receiving the 4th, you say to the person holding the second handkerchief:

“Having pulled out a penny from one handkerchief, I now want to transfer it to another. I will not touch the handkerchief, but I will just take a coin in my hand and say:

"Pass!" Be so kind, at the word "pass" to release the coin that you are holding, but continue to hold the handkerchief with your other hand.

Pretending to transfer the penny by receiving the 4th to the right hand, you quickly open this hand towards the handkerchief, saying:

"Pass"! The person holding the handkerchief releases the end of it as ordered: two coins tinkle, as if the second coin fell into the handkerchief, and on examination it turns out that both of them are really marked.

We may here describe another, even more clever, way of wrapping a coin in a handkerchief, in reality only covering it with a fold of it.

Taking the coin vertically between the thumb and other fingers of the left hand, completely cover it with a handkerchief. Having shown that it is completely covered, notice:

"But maybe you think I switched the coin. Let me prove to you that I didn't."

With your right hand, palm up, take the coin through the handkerchief between the index and middle fingers of this hand.

Focus Coins from two scarves will be converted into one

Take your left hand away for a moment (but without pulling it out from under the handkerchief). Turn your right hand toward you and grasp the coin again with your left hand, but this time grasp the opposite edge of the coin from where you were holding before and through twice the thickness of the handkerchief.

Take your right hand away from the coin and, at the same time, lift the edge of the handkerchief and show the coin.

Then lower the edges of the scarf. Everyone will assume that the coin will be under the handkerchief, in its middle, but in fact it is outside and lies in a small fold on the side opposite to the audience.

This description seems complicated, but if you follow it carefully, it will turn out to be quite simple in practice.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

The Milky Way is Bigger Than Thought 07.07.2013

A new study by scientists at the University of Colorado Boulder using the Hubble Telescope shows that the Milky Way may actually be much larger than previously thought.

Studies of spiral galaxies like ours have shown that they are surrounded by a halo of gas more than 1 million light-years across. For comparison: until now, the diameter of the Milky Way was estimated at about 100 light years. Despite the fact that the density of the gas is small, nevertheless, spiral galaxies turned out to be much more massive than previously thought. The scientists calculated the mass of the haloes, which are mostly oxygen-enriched interstellar gas. This mass turned out to be large: almost the same as the stars inside the galaxies themselves. Needless to say, this discovery will seriously affect modern models of the evolution of spiral galaxies, and the entire Universe as a whole.

Why has such a significant mass of matter not yet been discovered? Everything is banal: the halo around galaxies is cold and contains too rarefied gas. It is not known when it would have been discovered at all, if not for the calculations carried out by NASA specialists in 2009, when the installation of the COS spectrometer on the Hubble telescope was being prepared. Then theoretical studies showed that spiral galaxies seem to have about 5 times more gas than was observed by astronomers. Only now, thanks to Hubble's observations, it was possible to find part of the "missing" gas.

A very complex technique was used to detect a highly rarefied gas. Scientists used distant quasars (superbright massive black holes) as "flashlights" that shone through space and made it possible to record the passage of ultraviolet light through the haloes of gas around galaxies. Then, using the COS spectrometer, the chemical composition, density, velocity, and other characteristics of the galactic gas halo were studied.

At present, astronomers are busy carefully studying the phenomenon they have discovered. Scientists are very hopeful that the Hubble Space Telescope will continue its work. The fact is that the James Webb telescope, announced as Hubble's successor, cannot observe in the UV range, and most likely its capabilities will be mainly directed to the "fashionable" topic of searching and studying exoplanets.
