Focus Description:

How to make the intended card appear in any pile of cards.

Focus secret:

Give the audience a good shuffle of the deck. Then arrange the cards in three piles and ask someone to think of a card. When he says what he's up to, you say that his card is in that pile and point to one of the piles. Ask for a card. Let's say the spectator said that this is the king of tambourine. You say that the spectator's card is in the specified pile, and to prove your point, you want to show that this card is not in the other two piles.

After that, take both piles in your hands and, turning them face up, approach the audience, quickly sorting through the cards. If this card is not there, then the trick turned out by itself.

Then say that you don't usually repeat tricks, but now, so that the audience does not think that this is just random luck, you will repeat it. And ask the audience to determine in advance the pile in which the intended card should be.

After hearing the answer, you again connect other piles to prove that they do not contain the named card. You might get lucky this time too, but if you don't and you see a card in your hand, you simply quickly push it back into the deck with the middle finger of your right hand and continue looking through the cards. When you are done with this, you flip the deck over, with the desired card on top. You close it quickly with your right hand, allowing you to tuck the card into your palm.

After that, you just have to take the cards left on the table with your right hand. Shifting the cards to your left hand, you say: "Watch me very carefully. You will see how I will remove the pile on the card I intended." It seems to the audience that you are simply removing the cards while you are making a circle, removing the lower part of the hand instead of the upper one. The top of the card stack is now in your left hand.

You ask one of the spectators to look at the top card, and he confirms your words. If the card does not end up in the indicated pile the first time, then you do everything as described, but do not "repeat" the trick.

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 ... >>

Western Digital's HDD capacity doubles 21.03.2013

A new technology for manufacturing hard disk platters doubles the capacity of today's hard drives and solves the problem of further increasing data density. Researchers at Hitachi GST, which was acquired by Western Digital in March 2012, have developed a new method for manufacturing hard drive platters. It allows you to double the capacity of drives and continue to increase capacity over time, according to Technology Review.

The information in a hard disk is stored in a magnetic material on the surface of a rotating platter. During the manufacturing process, this material is applied to the plate in the form of a thin film. Information is recorded by changing the orientation of the magnetic field of individual sections of the material, known as domains. A group of domains with one direction of the magnetic field forms one bit of information.

The technology for storing information in domains was developed in the 50s, since then scientists have repeatedly come up with ways to increase the recording density by reducing the area of ​​​​areas required to store one bit. However, it is impossible to reduce these areas indefinitely, because the phenomenon of superparamagnetism begins to manifest itself, in which the magnetic field in the areas of the disk surface takes the same direction as in neighboring areas, which leads to the loss of information. At present, producers are approaching the border beyond which further reduction of areas will not be possible.

To solve the problem, HGST scientists placed magnetic dots, 10 nm in diameter, on the magnetic platter of a hard drive using nanoprinting technology, placing them next to each other in a circle. The researchers demonstrated the ability of the magnetic head to write and read data from these points. They were able to fit 1,2 trillion "magnetic islands" onto one square inch of a platter - enough to store about 1 TB on a 2,5-inch platter, twice the density of today's hard drives. And since the diameter of the dots can be reduced, the density can be even higher.

Nanoprinting technology first appeared in the mid-90s. Its essence lies in applying a soft material to the target surface using a hard stamp with a special stencil. The imprint is used to modify the surface by etching or applying an additional layer. The soft material is then removed and the surface takes on the desired pattern.

Hard drives using nanoprinting technology could be commercially available by the end of this decade, scientists say. According to vice president of HGST Research Currie Munce, nanoprinting technology will be able to approach the physical limit in 15-20 years.
