Focus Description:

How to nail a map to a wall.

Focus secret:

You will need a sharp nail, which you should place with the point close to you. Let the spectator choose a card. When he returns it to you, put the card on top, using a volt, hide it in your palm and give the deck to shuffle. After that, cover the nail with your right hand so that the middle of the card is above the nail, press the card a little so that the nail pierces it.

When the deck is returned to you, you must place the hidden card on top of it and press the nail so that it protrudes slightly above the back of the deck. Ask the audience where they want to see the intended map.

Once you figure out the place, you stand a short distance from it and throw the deck hard backwards. While the cards are flying, they will all fall to the floor, except for the selected card, which will be nailed to the wall.

Of course, it's not easy to learn how to throw a deck this way. For a start, you can be content with the fact that the entire deck will be nailed to the wall.

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 ... >>

Deadly danger of apples 26.09.2016

Apples are often called the "fruit of health" because they contain many vitamins and antioxidants. However, it is impossible to eat a whole apple, with a core and seeds.

There is a proverb in English: “An apple a day keeps the doctor away”: it has been established that eating apples is useful for the prevention of many diseases, including cancer. Although apples do not contain as much vitamin C compared to other fruits and vegetables, they are rich in antioxidants. Apple fiber stimulates intestinal motility, has a positive effect on heart function and lowers cholesterol levels.

Some nutritionists even advise eating whole apples, but this is an erroneous opinion: apple seeds contain a deadly compound - mandelic acid nitrile gentibioside C20H27NO11, or amygdalin. It is also present in the pits of cherries, almonds, peaches, and many plum plants. The specific gravity of amygdalin in different fruits is different: if for almonds and peaches it is about 2,5-3%, then for apricot this figure is at the level of 1,8%, and for apples - 0,6%.
Scientists remind of the danger lurking inside the fruit. In mild cases, amygdalin poisoning is manifested by headache and nausea; in severe cases, cyanosis, convulsions, loss of consciousness are observed; even death is possible.

In New Zealand, cases of amygdalin poisoning have been reported after eating 30–60 apricot kernels. The exact number of whole eaten apples that can be harmful to health has not been calculated, but one should not forget that their bones, albeit in low concentrations, contain poison.
