Focus Description:

The magician asks the viewer to give his initials and writes them down on the corner of a small notebook. Everyone can make sure that there are no other inscriptions on the sheet.

The magician tears out a piece of paper from the notebook, folds it, places it under the handkerchief and invites one of the spectators to hold the note tightly through the handkerchief. Then he asks someone for a lottery ticket, folds it and places it under the second handkerchief.

The ticket is also held by another spectator through a handkerchief.

The magician orders the note and the ticket to switch places. Spectators unfold their scarves and see that the magician's order has been fulfilled. And on the note, where previously there were only the initials of the viewer, the ticket number is also written.

Focus secret:

For the demonstration, you need a lottery ticket, a small notebook and two handkerchiefs.

Prepare the notebook as follows: cut off the lower right corner from the top (first) sheet, the size of the cut section should be such that you can write initials on the next (second from the top) sheet.

On the second sheet, write the number and series of your pre-prepared ticket.

The paper in the notebook should be thick enough so that the inscription does not shine through. Put the notepad in the left pocket of your jacket.

Put the pre-folded ticket in the right pocket of your jacket, put a pencil in the same place. When you reach into your pocket for a pencil, you pull out the ticket, holding it between your fingers.

Open a notepad (the top sheet is facing you) and draw a bold line, as if outlining a place for writing initials along the edge of the corner. This feature masks the cut line.

Ask the viewer for initials and write them on the corner, and then show the viewer what you wrote. Turn the notebook towards you and tear out the second sheet, of course, with the inscription towards you. Fold the paper into a small square.

When you put your hand under the handkerchief, leave a ticket under it, and hide the note between your fingers.

Take the ticket from the viewer. You fold it, put your hand under the second handkerchief, leave a note under it, hide the ticket in your hand, and then transfer it to your pocket.

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 ... >>

The threat of space debris to the Earth's magnetic field 01.05.2024

More and more often we hear about an increase in the amount of space debris surrounding our planet. However, it is not only active satellites and spacecraft that contribute to this problem, but also debris from old missions. The growing number of satellites launched by companies like SpaceX creates not only opportunities for the development of the Internet, but also serious threats to space security. Experts are now turning their attention to the potential implications for the Earth's magnetic field. Dr. Jonathan McDowell of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics emphasizes that companies are rapidly deploying satellite constellations, and the number of satellites could grow to 100 in the next decade. The rapid development of these cosmic armadas of satellites can lead to contamination of the Earth's plasma environment with dangerous debris and a threat to the stability of the magnetosphere. Metal debris from used rockets can disrupt the ionosphere and magnetosphere. Both of these systems play a key role in protecting the atmosphere and maintaining ... >>

Solidification of bulk substances 30.04.2024

There are quite a few mysteries in the world of science, and one of them is the strange behavior of bulk materials. They may behave like a solid but suddenly turn into a flowing liquid. This phenomenon has attracted the attention of many researchers, and we may finally be getting closer to solving this mystery. Imagine sand in an hourglass. It usually flows freely, but in some cases its particles begin to get stuck, turning from a liquid to a solid. This transition has important implications for many areas, from drug production to construction. Researchers from the USA have attempted to describe this phenomenon and come closer to understanding it. In the study, the scientists conducted simulations in the laboratory using data from bags of polystyrene beads. They found that the vibrations within these sets had specific frequencies, meaning that only certain types of vibrations could travel through the material. Received ... >>

US Army polyethylene helmet 20.06.2018

The US Army is developing a new helmet for soldiers. It will be light, but that is why it is made not of Kevlar, but of polyethylene.

The new Second Generation Advanced Combat Helmet will be lighter than ever, while protecting the wearer from head injuries.

According to the developers, the helmet will be 24% lighter than all previous helmets for soldiers and will stop 9 mm caliber bullets, shrapnel and elements of improvised explosive devices. The helmet is being developed by the Natick Research and Engineering Center.

The weight of the new ACH II helmet will be only 1,4 kg. How are these savings achieved? Army engineers changed the material from Kevlar to plastic. Yes, on plastic, or as it's officially called "ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene". It is a semi-crystalline polymer that is used in everything from fishing lines to hip prostheses. It is durable, non-corrosive and lightweight.

The color of the helmet will be brownish-yellow, and it will be possible to change it to different camouflage patterns using fabric covers.
