Focus Description:

On the illusion table there is an ordinary champagne bottle and glass. The performer fills the glass and drinks the drink.

Then the performer wraps the bottle in newspaper and begins to pull out colorful silk scarves one after another. Having pulled out the last handkerchief (and he pulled out quite a lot of them), the performer suddenly energetically crumples up the newspaper along with the bottle and throws aside the loose lump of newspaper that he no longer needs.

Focus secret:

The bottle is paper, it only looks like a real champagne bottle.

This bottle is made from black glossy paper, which can be purchased at any stationery store. It must be glued together from two component parts - this will facilitate production.

When both parts of the bottle are ready, a second inner neck is placed inside its upper part in the neck area, which is glued together with acetone from a photographic film rolled into a tube. The upper part of the tube remains free, and a regular nipple is put on the lower part. The diameter of this tube is slightly smaller than the diameter of the bottle neck, and its capacity should hold about a glass of water. To prevent this inner neck from dangling inside the bottle and falling to the bottom, it must be secured with an inner bottom, which is cut out and placed on the tube close to the nipple.

Now the tube can be placed at the top of the bottle so that the edge of the inner neck is 1-1 cm below the neck of the bottle, and the inner bottom fits tightly to the inside of the upper half of the bottle. Then you need to trim the edges of the upper half of the bottle with teeth so that when gluing it to the lower part there are no folds and wrinkles, and fasten both halves of the bottle.

When it is ready and equipped with all the necessary external decorations (label, silver paper), several colorful silk scarves are pushed into its lower part from the bottom. After this, you need to cut out the bottom from thin cardboard and slightly press it inside the bottle.

Just before the performance, the desired drink is poured into the top of the bottle.

Now the bottle can be put together with the glass on the illusion table.

The trick is demonstrated as follows. The performer pours the contents of the bottle into a glass and drinks it. He then wraps the bottle in newspaper and turns it upside down without the audience noticing. The bottom of the bottle opens easily. The artist pulls out the scarves in the bottle one after another.

As soon as the last scarf is taken out, the magician can safely crumple up the newspaper along with the bottle in his hands and throw this lump into the corner of the stage - there will be no fragments from such a bottle. The inconvenience of this trick is that the bottle must be made for each performance. Therefore, we recommend preparing several bottles at once for ten to fifteen performances ahead.

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 ... >>

To predict a heart attack, droplets of blood stop 08.04.2012

Scientists from the Institute of Translational Medicine. E. Scripps began testing a new test that can detect an imminent heart attack. A simple test predicts a possible heart attack using a sample of blood and cells that slough off damaged blood vessel walls.

This invention closes a major gap in the diagnosis of cardiac diseases. Today, doctors can detect a heart attack only when it has already happened. Yet each year, tens of thousands of patients, even after stress tests in the doctor's office, face the devastating effects of a life-threatening heart attack a few weeks later.

A heart attack occurs after an atherosclerotic plaque ruptures in an artery. The result is a clot that blocks blood flow to the heart. Thus, damage to the tissues of the heart occurs, often life-threatening for the patient, especially when it comes to rupture of cholesterol plaques. In the latter case, the disease is often asymptomatic, and a heart attack occurs unexpectedly. The new test solves this problem, i.e. know in advance about the increased risk of damage to heart tissue. Now the doctor will be able to find out about damage to the endothelium (a layer of cells on the inner surface of blood vessels) even before the formation of a dangerous blood clot and prevent a heart attack or stroke.

Unfortunately, the new test does not yet allow you to accurately determine when exactly an attack will occur: in a day, two or a week. Therefore, people at high risk will have to be tested regularly. Currently, scientists are discussing the possibility of creating a portable device that can quickly detect circulating endothelial cells that indicate damage to blood vessels.
