Focus Description:

For the trick, you will need a glass vase on a leg and a glass lid, which together have a height of about 25 cm. The vase is placed on a rectangular pedestal similar to a box, its base is about 20 cm, its height is 15 cm.

The lid is placed on the vase, and since the vase is transparent, it can be seen that it is empty. For some time, a scarf with an interesting pattern is thrown over this design, and when it is removed, it turns out that there is a rose (real or artificial) in the vase.

Focus Rose in a glass vase

Focus secret:

On one side, the vase has a hole 13 cm long and 9 cm wide. This hole must be hidden from the audience: the vase must face them with its whole side. The pedestal is closed on all sides, except for the side farthest from the audience, which is open.

In this open space, it moves back and forth, describing a quarter circle, a bent wire lever with a fork at the end to receive the rose stem. The spring valve on which this lever works forces it to take the desired position.

The whole structure is installed before the start of the focus in a horizontal position. In this position, the flower is held by a small latch while the vase is covered with a handkerchief and the button on the top of the pedestal is pressed. This releases the latch and allows the rose in the vase to rise. The rose is taken out from above so that the audience cannot see the hole and the wire.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Stress makes the body age faster 09.12.2021

Scientists from Yale University have found out how chronic stress speeds up the biological clock and whether there are ways to slow it down and prolong a healthy life. To do this, the authors used the epigenetic clock - a set of epigenetic DNA marks that makes it possible to determine the biological age of a tissue, cell, or organ.

Stress does accelerate the aging of the body, but a person can cope with the consequences by increasing the regulation of emotions and self-control. Long-term stress, for example, increases the risk of heart disease, addiction, mood disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

She added that stress can affect metabolism, accelerating the development of obesity-related diseases such as diabetes. It also deprives a person of the ability to manage emotions and think clearly.

The scientists' study involved 444 people aged 19 to 50 who provided blood samples used to assess age-related chemical changes, as well as other indicators of health. Participants also answered questions designed to gauge stress levels and resilience.

Even after adjusting for demographic and behavioral factors such as smoking, body mass index, race, and income, the authors found that those who scored high on measures of chronic stress had markers of accelerated aging and physiological changes, such as increased insulin resistance. However, stress did not affect everyone's health to the same extent. Subjects who scored high on two dimensions of psychological resilience—emotion regulation and self-control—were more resilient to the effects of stress on aging and insulin resistance, respectively.

These findings support the popular notion that stress makes us age faster, but they also offer a promising way to minimize these adverse effects of stress through enhanced emotion regulation and self-control. In other words, the more psychologically stable an individual is, the more likely they are to live longer and healthier lives.
