Focus Description:

The performer takes a glass filled with milk from his table. The audience is convinced that there really is milk in the glass when the magician splashes it a little. Then he takes a metal cylinder from the table and shows it to the audience.

The audience sees that the cylinder is through and has no secrets: the performer passes a flower through it, which easily passes and pierces the floor. Holding a glass of milk in his hand, the performer puts a cylinder on it, covers it with his free hand and turns it upside down. Then he goes to the audience, approaches the front row, takes his hand away from the bottom of the cylinder and pretends to want to spray the audience. Those, of course, are frightened, but their fears are in vain, since the hand of the performer is completely dry. The milk disappeared, and with the milk the glass disappeared. Spectators are convinced of this when the magician brings the cylinder to his eyes and looks through it at the audience. For greater clarity, the performer again passes a flower through this cylinder.

Focus secret:

For this trick you will need a glass and a metal cylinder. And although at first glance both the glass and the cylinder are the most ordinary (Fig. 44, A), in fact, both of them are with a secret.

Focus Glass with milk
Fig. 44

The glass consists of internal and external, their walls are connected. The distance between the walls at the bottom is 1,5 cm. It is filled with milk. The height of the glass is 8-9 cm, the diameter is 5 cm (Fig. 44, B).

The cylinder is made of thin sheet metal. It should be twice as high as the glass and slightly larger in diameter so that it can be freely put on the glass. A cylinder with a secret device - an inner section of the tube, which is half shorter than the main cylinder and has a conical shape. On fig. 44, B, and the cylinder and tube are shown in section. Both are made from the same material. One edge of the inner tube is tightly soldered to the middle of the outer cylinder and polished smoothly (Figure 44, D). The other edge should freely enter the middle of the glass, into its through hole (Fig. 44, E). When showing the cylinder, the performer must turn it towards him with a double edge.

When the cylinder and glass of milk are demonstrated, the performer, holding the glass in the palm of one hand, puts the cylinder on it with the other. The walls of the inner tube will enter the through middle of the glass. When the glass is turned upside down together with the cylinder, the milk remains between the walls and does not spill out. When the magician again shows the cylinder to the audience, putting it to his eyes, along with the glass hidden in it, the audience sees only a through hole. To enhance the impression, the performer once again passes a flower through the middle of the cylinder.

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 ... >>

One of the causes of poor appetite 12.11.2017

People who always do not want to eat turned out to be a bit of mutants.

A decrease in the concentration of the hormone asprosin, which is responsible for the level of glucose in the blood, helps to reduce the feeling of hunger and reduce the amount of food consumed by a person, American scientists have found.

During the experiment, scientists from the Baylor College of Medicine found that some patients with abnormally poor appetite have a mutation in the FBN1 gene. It turned out that this group of people lacks a small fragment of the protein from which asprosin is formed in the body of a healthy person.

Further study of the hormone's action showed that the compound interacts with neurons in the hypothalamus. According to the study, asprosin has different effects on two types of nerve cells - appetite-stimulating AgRP neurons and appetite-suppressing POMC neurons. As a result, the hormone increases the feeling of hunger, causing the body to demand more food.

In addition, scientists have found that overweight people have high blood levels of asprosin. The researchers note that they have already developed a tool that completely neutralizes the effect of the hormone, and also conducted the first clinical trials.
