Focus Description:

This trick requires a small book. It is better to take a pocket dictionary.

The magician claims to be a psychic. Taking the book, he gives it to the viewer and asks him to name a number - between 1 and 150. He asks another viewer to name a number between 1 and 100. Suppose 94 and 27 are named.

The magician invites the first viewer to turn to page 94 and count to the 27th word. The magician leaves the room for the time being. When he returns, he asks everyone to focus on the word. After a few seconds, he suddenly utters this word.

Focus secret:

The focus is extremely simple. The magician has two identical books in his pocket. He gives the audience one book. Leaving the room, he takes a duplicate from his pocket and finds the right word. Thus, returning to the audience, he already knows the intended word.

Although the trick is very simple, it gives the impression of demonstrating psychic abilities. But it can be made more effective if the magician has an assistant in the next room. The assistant will have a duplicate of the book; he hears the numbers spoken, and while the magician tells the audience what to do, he looks up the word in the book and writes it down on a piece of paper. When leaving, the magician sees the paper and reads the word. Then he becomes so that he is partially visible and so as not to arouse suspicion among the audience.

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 ... >>

Additionally, the toilet has a large flushable storage capacity, making it ideal for multi-cat households. The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>

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. ... >>

A simple method to obtain black silicon for solar panels 14.07.2014

Scientists from Rice University in Houston (USA, Texas) have developed an affordable method for obtaining black silicon. The advantage of black silicon is that it can capture a significant amount of sunlight.

The material obtained by scientists practically does not reflect light. This property is achieved through the use of very small nanoneedles when processing the surface of the plate. Such needles must be smaller than the wavelength of the light that is trapped as a result.

Such surface structures absorb sunlight with high efficiency regardless of the irradiation angle and light wavelength. This is in contrast to previous reflection loss reduction strategies, says Rice University chemist and project leader Andrew Baron.

Until now, the production of black silicon wafers has taken quite a long time. The Texas researchers were able to cut the entire process down to one step. They take a mixture of hydrogen fluoride, copper nitrate, phosphoric acid and water. After applying such a mixture to a crystalline silicon wafer, phosphoric acid converts copper ions into nanoparticles that oxidize silicon and burn out a reverse pyramidal structure on the wafer surface with the participation of hydrogen fluoride.

By experimenting with this process, scientists have obtained nanopores smaller than 590 nm. They allow you to "catch" 99% of the light.
