If you play games like Counter-Strike or Half-Life where crouching or crouch jumping is important then this keyboard might take a little getting used to. The L-Ctrl button is pretty small, and as a result the windows key is shifted left - right where your pinky wants to go when you're trying to crouch.
Other than that, the keyboard is fantastic. I especially like the indentation that grips the detachable usb cable. Makes it so the port is less likely to be damaged.
Posted by Jesse on 21st Feb 2013
If you are skeptical about jumping into mechanical keyboards because of the price, or simply find most mechanical keyboards out of your budget, the Quickfire Rapid is something you need to consider.
The build quality is outstanding and the feel is amazing. I'm a typist so I got the Cherry Blues, which are great for typing, and after using the Quickfire I have never went back to a standard membrane board. If you can live without the number pad, and are using a membrane keyboard, the Quickfire Rapid is the best value out there.
Posted by Alejandro on 25th Jan 2013
I bought the QuickFire Rapid Spanish ISO layout model a couple of weeks ago, and I can't remember being more satisfied with a computer accesory ever. Well, nearly 20 years ago I received an IBM Model M buckling spring keyboard, and it too made typing so enjoyable, no matter how many hours a day. For work, school and the occasional Test Drive or Space Quest gaming. The model I bought here has the Cherry MX BROWN switches, chosen beforehand for the typing feeedback of the Blue switches, but with less force (45g) and noise feedback. It is GREAT for typing. It has a nostalgic clack (not click) sound when bottoming out which I find very enjoiable. I haven't donde any "heavy" gaming yet, but since these keys are so responsive and light to press, I'm sure that this keyboard is also good at gaming.
Cooler Master did a great job at bringing a no frills, top-quality mechanical keyboard at about HALF what other fancy brands charge. You can do a blind comparison of this Rapid model against a $150 Filco Tenkeyless and you won't be able to tell de difference.
It was no marketing BS when reviewers say that this tenkeyless format and the Cherry switches coupled with the heavy metal backplate of the Cooler Master Rapid WILL make you a better, faster typist. They should add that this will make you a happier typist too.
In all, the absolute best under $100 keyboard out there, bar none.

This keyboard is simply fantastic. The build quality and design is simply superb. The only downside is the fact that I specifically asked for no branding but was given a branded one.
But I have gotten used to the branding.
The cherry mx brown switches are great, and I really like it a lot more than the blue switches that I previously had.
Posted by Unknown on 21st Dec 2012
Pros: This keyboard is the best you can get and is better than many that cost almost twice as much! It is manufactured by costar who currently has the best manufacturing process for keyboards. I have had a few other mechanical keyboards any this is my favorite by far. The closest compararible keyboard is a filco which costs much more and doesn't have detachable usb.
Cons: The quickfire rapid is heavily branded but I actually think it makes it look nicer sans the "quickfire" text on the spacebar.
Bottom Line: This is the best built keyboard you can get at a great value.
Posted by Jonathan on 5th Nov 2012
very nice keyboard i can type way faster on it and its great for gaming i love everything about it but i wish i got the pro because this one doesnt have the leds
Posted by anononon on 2nd Nov 2012
Love it. Definitely one of the best keyboards I've ever used. Only thing is that if you accidentally press a key half-way, it still types the letter, but that's negligible. Keys feel great, and make a satisfying CHUNK when you type. Not to mention it's small and portable.
Posted by Unknown on 20th Sep 2012
A quality keyboard with a solid feel. I love the Cherry MX brown swiches.
My only minor complaints are: (1) the top-side branding, (2) the keycap font, and (3) one of the rubber feet is a bit short making the keyboard wobble on my desk.
Posted by Alex on 3rd Sep 2012
I'd like to split this review into 2 parts.
1) QuickFire Rapid as mechanical keyboard
It's awesome. I've got everything i've expected reading all those
reviews. The usual complaints i've used to find there - logos, font (!)
- i like all of it. It suits really well IMHO. I like the build, the
feel, it feels like you want to type just smth to get this feeling
This is my first mechanical keyboard and IMHO it's one of the best
choices avaliable.
2) Typing on the mechanical keyboard
It looks like i've typed on pretty decent scissors keyboard for the last
few years. It uses the same 'switch' as notebooks, but there is the
difference, I've used laptop stand (CoolerMaster also, no cooling, just
stand) to use it with my Samsung laptop (and place 2nd monitor on the
same level)
The QuickFire is fun to type on, but my worn-out keyb still also is. :-D
I've also happened to type on rubber dome keyboards just after buying
QF, and QF beats them easily.
One more thing - this is Cherry MX Brown, which is tactile, but not
clicky. It makes more noise than scissors, it's not quite, it's just not
'clicky' as 'Blues' keyboard is.
If you think that your surrounding allows you to 'click' you may prefer
to go with 'Blues' - just my IMHO, haven't tried it myself. You save few
bucks also.
But I wouldn't change my QF for anything, really enjoying it. You can
always 'clack' bottoming out keys :-D
Highly recommend this one.
P.S. If you want to buy mechanical keyboard and you cannot decide which brand you want, google for geekhack reviews - people who are crazy fans for this stuff and used almost every thing on Earth, they like QF Rapid a lot (ugh, branding/font) :-)
Posted by milovam on 10th Jul 2012
I've had the CMQR keyboard for almost 2 months. Everything works well. The switches have good feel and the board does not move while typing. Right hand mouse position is much better because of the tenkeyless design.
I hope Cooler master would also sell a version without the accessory keys - 60 to 66 key design
- for extreme portability.
I recommend this keyboard.

I read the Times� article about Woodlawn Stables in the May 4-6 edition, and I am grateful the problem of re-routing Route 1 and its impact on the stables is being reported.
I am the parent of two young student riders at Woodlawn, and my girls adore the place! We live near-by in Belle View so having the stables at Woodlawn makes it possible for two working parents to drive our girls to lessons/camps without venturing to Middleburg, where most of the stables in Northern Virginia are located. We take lessons every Saturday, and have been to the summer camps as well. Woodlawn Stables is an idyllic gem nestled near the heart of a major city, and surely you know this is a rare thing to see these days. Commerce has taken over almost every aspect of our lives. But at Woodlawn Stables it is as if the past 60 years never happened.
Whenever we talk to other parents about our kids taking lessons there, we hear so many stories of fond childhood memories of Woodlawn Stables and long sweaty summers working in the barns. It�s like stepping back in time — the 100-year-old barns, the lush fields, wildflowers, Canadian geese, foxes, old fences, the smell of the timber, sawdust, moss covered stone walls and, of course, the angelic 50 occupants of the stalls, the horses. Their sweet brown eyes peering over their paddock walls to say �hi� to anyone that passes by. It�s impossible to walk past them and not put out a hand to them.
How could the Federal Highway Administration conceive to spend my tax dollars to re-route a road and intentionally destroy this beautiful place? There are other choices.
We realize traffic is a problem, but why not simply widen the road, which we understand is an option. Why must the road be moved to go directly through the stables?
I have spoken to other parents and all of us feel this will be a tragedy if the road goes through. It will rob our children of fond memories of the barns, cherished activities that don�t involve a computer or TV.
My little girls have started a petition at their school, and spend all their spare time talking about the stables� fate. We don�t want to live in a county where higher value is placed on commerce and concrete than on treasured historic land.

Euro Banking Union Should Avoid 'Systemic Danger,' Prodi Says
Aug. 31 (Bloomberg) -- The planned common banking supervisor for euro-area countries should cover medium-sized lenders to minimize systemic risks, according to former European Commission President Romano Prodi.
"If you have many medium-sized banks that don't respect the rules, you have a systemic danger," Prodi said today in a Bloomberg Television interview near Versailles, France. "How can you exercise control only on 10 banks or let's say a number like that" while having "the biggest part of the system not respecting the rules?" he said.
The European Central Bank would have the sole power to grant banking licenses under proposals to give it supervisory powers and build a euro-area banking union, a European Union official said today, speaking on condition of anonymity because the plan isn't final. While the Frankfurt-based ECB could decide to withdraw banks' licenses, national regulators would still control when to shut down a lender.
Under the proposals, which are being drafted by the European Commission, the EU's regulatory arm, the ECB would also gain discretion over which banks to supervise directly and when it will delegate day-to-day oversight responsibilities, the official said.

Paci, Raffaele - Pigliaru, Francesco (1998) Growth and sectoral dynamics in the Italian regions. Working Paper. CRENoS.
Official URL: http://www.crenos.it/working/pdf/98-3.pdf
Regional differentials in per capita income and labour productivity in Italy is one of the most notable cases of regional inequality and have attracted attention from economists from all over the world since the 1950s. In this paper we first aim at yielding a comprehensive description of the pattern of regional inequality in Italy on the basis of a new dataset on the main regional variables for the period 1951-94. We use descriptive statistics and panel regression analysis, in order to allow direct comparisons with the impressive evidence available on a large number of national cases. Second, we offer our contribution to the debate about the sources of the persistence of a high degree of regional inequality in Italy. We concentrate on sectoral dynamics in order to assess how much of the initially high potential for convergence due to the dualistic structure of the poorer regions has been exploited, by which regions, under what regional policy regimes. Our analysis remarks that a limited convergence process has occurred over the years 1951-75; afterward the degree of inequality between Northern and Southern regions has increased again. Moreover, the regional distribution of per capita income presents a bimodal polarisation with a rich convergence club which includes most of northern regions, and a poor club made of a small group of non-adriatic southern regions. In the sectoral analysis we find that dual mechanisms play a role in aggregate convergence as long as the outflows of labour from the low productivity agriculture of the poorer regions are a source of expansion of these regions' industrial sector. Once this migration from agriculture to industry ends in some of these regions, the impact of dualistic mechanisms on convergence weakens significantly. Industrialisation, or its failure, still appears to be the key to understand why some of the lagging regions converge and others do not.

Shavers For Sensitive Skin
When used properly electric shavers are far superior to manual razors for those who suffer from sensitive skin. Typically, an electric shaver causes much less damage to the skin than a manual razor which is ideal for anyone who regularly deals with razor burn or nicks and cuts while shaving. Below you'll find some of the best reasons to use electric for sensitive skin and our recommended shaver product that will keep irritation to a minimum.
We currently recommend the Philips Aquatouch AT890 for people who suffer with sensitive skin problems.
Reducing Dreaded Razor Burn
There's absolutely nothing worse than suffering from razor burn after shaving. Razor burn can be caused by a number of different things including friction, in-grown hairs and damage done to the skin. Electric shaver help prevent damage to the skin that can be caused by a traditional disposable razor. Unlike a manual razor, the blades of an electric shaver never actually touch the skin. They are covered by a thin foil on the shaving head which prevents any damage being done to the skin while shaving. This can ultimately lead to less razor burn.
Eliminates Nicks and Cuts
Nobody likes getting nicks and cuts when they shave, especially those with sensitive skin. Nicks and cuts from a manual razor can sometimes be so severe that they bleed for hours. Because the blades of an electric razor never actually touch your skin there's absolutely no possibility of getting cut while you shave. This means with an electric razor you'll never have to deal with the irritation and damage which can result from using a manual razor.
Less Friction for Less Irritation
Friction is yet another source of damage and irritation to the skin. When a manual blade gets dull it takes more pressure and strokes to get a clean, close shave. The additional pressure and strokes means more friction grinding away at the skin. This can lead to skin damage, razor burn, cuts and more. The caps on the shaving heads of electric razors are designed to be extremely smooth which almost completely eliminates the possibility of friction. Without friction your skin suffers from less damage and irritation during shaving which is ideal for those with sensitive skin.
Using Creams and Gels with Wet Dry Electric Razors
Those with sensitive skin should definitely consider using an electric razor that can shave both wet and dry. A wet dry electric razor gives you the option of using the same shaving creams and gels that you normally would with a standard manual razor. Combined with the other benefits of using an electric razor this can cut down on irritation and damage to the skin considerably. Just don't try this trick with a standard dry razor as you could easily damage it.
Shaving in the Shower
A wet dry electric razor also provides an additional benefit to those with sensitive skin when used in the shower. A warm shower softens the hair and skin on your face and neck. This makes the hair much easier to trim which aids in eliminating friction and damage to the skin. It also opens up the pores of your skin to help keep them clean and healthy which can reduce skin irritation. While shaving in the shower is ideal you may also benefit from a shower before or after your shave as well.

Europe is made up of a number of different countries that all seem to have their own very special charm. Everyone boasts a different and unique culture, and great food, entrancing music, entertaining stories and picturesque towns to accompany it. As if this isn't enough to lure visitors, Europe also has an abundance of historical landmarks, breathtaking architecture and some of the most beautiful natural landscapes found on Earth. The question is not so much what to see when you visit Europe, but rather how do you manage to see as much as possible without rushing through it? One of the great answers to this is to make use of European coach tours. These tours can transport you from town to town and one incredible attraction to another in comfort and luxury. The structured tour will make the most of your time.
A country is not only defined by its world famous landmarks, although you certainly also want to see these in your quest to discover the essence of the country you are visiting. When visiting Italy, European coach tours in this region may, for example, take you to see internationally acclaimed sites such as the Coliseum in Rome and the canals of Venice, but also show you the beautiful countryside in between and let you visit places of interest and experience the true local culture on the way. Visiting France, you will get to see the Eiffel Tower in Paris as well as the Louvre art museum, and also their world famous vineyards as you leave the confines of the city and venture further out into the country.
You also don't have to be limited to one country at a time either. European coach tours are available that travel through more than one country at a time, giving you the opportunity to see more. Travel Associate is able to book such a luxury holiday for you on your request. Simply call 0860 400 500 to find out more about some of the best tours available. Travel Associates is the boutique brand of Flight Centre Limited, catering for the travel needs of the frequent and more discerning traveller in search of new experiences or the ultimate in luxury holidays.

Game Preview: Cardinals at Braves, 5th October 2012
Categories: Aaron Schafer, Cardinals
Nonetheless, that's the landscape now. One game, win or go home. Unfortunately, that one game is in Atlanta, giving the Redbirds a bit of an uphill climb. Still, home field advantage isn't everything. The Cardinals certainly have the talent to make a run in the playoffs. I think most of us believed all along we would be watching this team late into October. Maybe we still will.
First, though, they have to get by the Braves.
The Cards head into this game with a decided advantage on the offensive side of the equation; they outscored the Braves 765-700 this season. It's not surprising the Redbirds have an offensive edge; they scored the second-most runs in the National League this year (behind only the Brewers), despite some struggles in the latter part of the season. They rank near the top of the league in OPS. Number one overall in on-base percentage. Fourth in batting average. The one thing the Cardinals didn't do exceptionally well is put the ball over the fence (which is partially due to the effect of playing home games in Busch Stadium), but in all other ways this is a potent run-scoring machine.
The Braves, on the other hand, are pretty much middle of the pack in most categories. Jason Heyward had a big bounceback season, and Brian McCann is always a potent offensive force. Michael Bourn had an excellent year and Dan Uggla did his Dan Uggla thing, hitting just .220 but adding a fair amount of power to the Atlanta lineup. (Though not quite to the extent he has in the past, actually.) The Braves have a solid lineup, but nowhere near as deep as that of the Cards.
Advantage: Cardinals
Starting Pitching
This may be the single most intriguing matchup in this game. Both teams will send high quality pitchers to the mound, with the Cardinals calling on Kyle Lohse and the Braves countering with Kris Medlen.
Lohse has been outstanding this season, going 16-3 with a 2.86 ERA. He's gotten some talk as a dark horse Cy Young candidate. He's been so good almost everyone has forgotten how much we hated his contract before this year. (Well, almost.) He posted the best strikeout to walk ratio of his career, at 3.76. It's hard to find anything bad to say about Kyle Lohse in 2012.
The only problem is the fact the guy the Braves are sending to the mound has been even better. Kris Medlen began the year in the Atlanta bullpen, and ended it being compared to Greg Maddux. And, scarily enough, those comparisons aren't completely ridiculous. A 1.57 ERA, a 2.42 FIP, and a 10-1 record all point to just how dominant he's been this season. That 3.67 K/BB ratio for Lohse? The one I said was really good? Well, it doesn't look quite so good when you stick it up against Medlen's 5.22. In other words, both teams have really good pitchers starting the game for them today. Atlanta's is a whole lot really gooder, though.
The Cardinals can win with Kyle Lohse on the mound. But they're going to have to do one hell of a job to get to Medlen.
Advantage: Braves
Ugh. So remember a second ago when I called the starting pitching the most intriguing matchup of the game? Well, here we have the scariest. The Cardinal bullpen has plenty of talent, but all the same has been the single biggest bugaboo for this team in 2012.
The good news is that in a single game, the Cards can run out their best arms, and there is some definite power to be had. Players like Jason Motte, Trevor Rosenthal, and Mitchell Boggs are all capable of getting the ball up there in the high 90s, and there are plenty of strikeouts to go around. All the same, though, this is a bullpen that blew a lot of leads in 2012, and if there's one place the Cardinals are oh so vulnerable, it's in the relief corps.
The Braves...well, they have a guy named Craig Kimbrel closing games for them. You may have heard of him, or you may not. (You should have.) If you haven't, this is what you need to know about Craig Kimbrel: he's the best reliever in baseball right now. His ERA for the season was 1.01. His FIP was 0.78. That's not a typo. It looks like one, but it isn't. His fielding independent percentage was below one. His strikeout rate is 16.66. Also not a typo. There is no other single reliever in the game right now who can impact a game the way Kimbrel can.
The rest of the Atlanta 'pen is solid, if not quite as intimidating as it appeared last season. Johnny Venters, the other half of the Braves' 2011 Tandem of Terror (patent pending), has had an up and down season, but still managed to strike out better than a batter per inning. Eric O'Flaherty gives the Braves a second nasty left-hander. It's a good 'pen.
In the end, though, the Atlanta bullpen in this game largely comes down to Kimbrel. The Cardinals have to believe they need to win the game in seven innings; if they get to Kimbrel you wouldn't bet on a comeback.
Advantage: Braves
Overall, this is a fairly even matchup, with the Cards having the edge on offense and the Braves a pitching advantage. The problem, though, is the format. In a single game, pitching can completely take over, and Atlanta has just the kind of pitching to do it. Medlen for six, some combination of guys for the seventh, and two innings from Kimbrel to close things out is a daunting proposition.
Unfortunately, as talented as this Cardinal team is, I think the Braves return the 2011 favor and knock the Redbirds out tonight. Their pitching is just too tough, and the Cards won't get a second bite at the apple. I think the season ends tonight.
Now let's all hope I don't know what the hell I'm talking about.
It wouldn't be the first time.

Press release from Business Wire
Aetna Launches CarePass Developer Challenge with $100,000 in Prizes for Top Apps Encouraging Medication Compliance

 -- CarePass® Platform Now Open to Developers; Enhanced with Popular MapMyFitness Apps --

Tuesday, June 05, 2012
Aetna Launches CarePass Developer Challenge with $100,000 in Prizes for Top Apps Encouraging Medication Compliance10:01 EDT Tuesday, June 05, 2012 HARTFORD, Conn. (Business Wire) -- Aetna (NYSE: AET) today announced key enhancements to its CarePass Platform, which will empower consumers through simple, integrated access to some of the best health and wellness apps in the marketplace. Joining the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' (HHS) open data initiative by making valuable public health data available, these enhancements include: the CarePass Developer Challenge, where two winning developers will share a $100,000 prize for developing an innovative solution that encourages medication adherence; easy access to data and services for third-party developers, to help them create new solutions to make health care more convenient; theaddition of MapMyFitness, which provides runners, cyclists, walkers, and athletes of all ability levels with access to innovative fitness and nutrition tracking applications. Aetna will be demonstrating these enhancements and formally launching the developer challenge today at 10:35 a.m. ET at the Health Data Initiative Forum in Washington, D.C. "Our top objective is to make it easier for consumers to take control of their health, from accessing care to staying well," said Martha Wofford, Aetna vice president and head of the CarePass Platform. "We believe that opening up data will unleash the creativity of developers to build innovative solutions that drive convenience for consumers." Resources and a Challenge for the Developer Community Beginning today, Aetna is supporting developers with a portal that offers API management, documentation and support, and various communication channels. APIs currently include multiple reformatted data sets from HHS alongside de-identified Aetna pharmacy data – offering unique opportunities for developers to "mash up" public and private data. It also includes retail drug price data from GoodRx, a Webby-award winning website and mobile application focused on lowering prescription drug costs for Americans. GoodRx provides millions of current prices for more than 6,000 prescription drugs at virtually every major U.S. pharmacy. The service also lists available discounts, savings tips and alternative options. Developers can register with the CarePass® Developer Portal at http://bit.ly/CarePassDev. Once registered with the portal, developers can participate in the CarePass Developer Challenge. The challenge will offer a $75,000 first prize and $25,000 second prize for the apps that best help consumers remember to take their medications. The winning apps will be integrated into the CarePass platform. The challenge is currently open, and runs through August 17, 2012. More details about the functional requirements for the challenge can be found here. Apps That Make Healthy Living Convenient for Consumers In addition to offering new resources for developers, CarePass has been enhanced with the addition of MapMyFitness. MapMyFitness provides more than nine million runners, cyclists, walkers, and other fitness enthusiasts -- from the casual beginner to the elite athlete -- with access to an innovative geo-mapping application that permits them to track and store their daily running, cycling, walking or hiking routes in an online database, a searchable database of routes across the globe, essential community-based fitness content, unique online training tools and fitness calculators, comprehensive global event listings, and a dynamic social network of healthy and active individuals. MapMyFitness apps include MapMyRun, MapMyRide and MapMyWalk. "At MapMyFitness, we believe a healthy life starts with diet and exercise," said Richard Jalichandra, CEO of MapMyFitness. "We're thrilled to partner with Aetna and iTriage on the CarePass solutions to promote healthier living." MapMyFitness joins iTriage on the CarePass Platform. iTriage, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Aetna with almost 6 million downloads of the iTriage® mobile app, allows users to research their symptoms, find a medical provider that serves their needs and is available when and where they need them, and book an appointment – all from their smartphone. Using CarePass to "Sync" Health Information It is simple for consumers to use the CarePass Platform. Consumers simply download any app enabled with the CarePass® Sync technology, choose the "Sync with CarePass" option within the app, and give the app permission to begin accessing identified components of their CarePass Sync personal health cloud. Everything else happens behind the scenes. For example, go for a run and the distance is automatically added to the user's personal health cloud; open a participating nutrition app and the calories from the run are automatically figured into the daily caloric intake. The CarePass Sync technology will be available for consumers beginning on June 18. The CarePass Platform delivers an integrated health care solution that provides information when and where consumers want it. The open, digital platform enables consumers to share information across applications and create a personalized, coherent experience to manage their whole health, from getting care to staying well, all with one sign-on. Aetna will continue adding more market-leading applications to the CarePass Platform throughout 2012 and beyond. About Aetna Aetna is one of the nation's leading diversified health care benefits companies, serving approximately 36.1 million people with information and resources to help them make better informed decisions about their health care.

After more than a week of writing about the "first responder" regulator for MF Global, the auditor PricewaterhouseCoopers, the media and the rest of the regulators are catching up.
I started a daily diary here, first posted last weekend when it looked like MF Global was going to have to find a buyer or go bust. That wasn't my intention but it developed into a place to put the latest headlines.
And, boy oh boy, were there headlines.
After the ratings agency downgrades and drawdowns of credit lines, we hit the weekend. Two journalists, in particular, stayed on the story on Saturday and Sunday feeding the rest of us – Jacob Bunge at the Wall Street Journal and Matthew Leising at Bloomberg.
When it looked like there'd be no buyer on Sunday night – why not we didn't yet know – we braced for an announcement on Monday morning. The bankruptcy announcement was anticlimactic compared to the next surprise.
What shocked MF Global customers, the markets, almost everyone but me, was the news that customer assets were missing.
Why was I not surprised that customer assets were missing? Two reasons:
- The legacy of Refco that permeates MF Global
- The recent history of PwC and MF Global's banker, JP Morgan Chase, regarding commingling of customer assets at the JPM futures broker in the UK.
The story of Sentinel, an investment advisor here in Chicago with an eerily similar scenario, also stuck in my mind.
I've been cynical since Day 1.
I knew by Tuesday I'd write my American Banker story today about the responsibility of PwC to monitor policies, procedures, and controls over segregation of customer assets.
Although I may have told Alison Frankel at Thomson Reuters that it would be tough to call PwC to account, I didn't mean no one should try.

David Copperfield Floating Table Revealed
Posted by: star on Sep 30, 2008
Tagged in: Tutorial , Levitation , Illusion
The Effect:
David invites 8 spectators to come up on the stage. They make a circle around a round wooden table. David asks them to put their hands on the table their hands and slowly rise from their knees to lift the table. To surprise of all spectators it happens. 8 people begin to rise from their knees, touching a surface of the table only with the tips of their fingers, and the table rises behind them in air. Then David asks to lift one hand, then another, and then both. But the table continues to hang in the air. The next moment the table begins to move with the music. It lasts for a few minutes, then the spectators come back to their seats.
The Secret:
The secret of the trick focus is simple, as well as is ingenious.
Inside the table there are no devices, unless its weight - it's very light. The secret is in two spectators, who stand against each other at the table. They are marked on pic.1.
In their sleeves special devices are hidden, which allow to support the table from below and to take off their palms at the same time. On pic.2 the scheme is represented, for your convenience the device is very much enlarged; actually it densely adjoins to the bottom (invisible) part of a sleeve, has the accurate forms, and automatically goes inside the sleeve, when you unbend the elbows.
It's very easy to tear a cloth off the table, and here may be lots of variants: David simply pulls it and the cloth goes out of a clip, or the cloth does not get in the clip between the device and the table. When the table begins "dance", the couple, standing against each other, simply conduct it in the necessary direction; you can see it clearly on the tape - all people simply run after the table, and our couple drags it (pic.3). If you draw an imagined line between the woman in red, and the young man against her, you will see, that the table is inclined, precisely following this line; they simply simultaneously incline it in different directions.
This trick is very amusing. But it's very simple for such a great illusionist. You can make such a table, take a couple of friends and to entertain people at some B-day party.

I agree with close but no cigar
Close, but No Cigar!
I believe John Gaughan, one of the most legendary Magic Builders of our time, made this piece for David at a cost in around $25,000.00 which is another reason your explanation is way off the mark -- the method you describe can be purchased for as little as $150.00 but rarely goes for more than $1,500.00 when it comes to the more sophisticated models.
reasnble explntn...
people Know that the table doesn't really float. it's called theatre you halfwit!
we probably couldn't even buy one
You guys think you're clever because you know a few elementary secrets. The art is in the routining and the presentation. Copperfield gets people to scream with this trick.

You're not the celebrity chef you'd like to be, so your kitchen is a little lacking. Your friends know your passion for creative cuisine and have given you a gift card to help you stock up on the brands of kitchen essentials you favor. Whatever you do with it, I suggest you don't waste it on these 6 useless kitchen gadgets.
Bogeyman Egg Separator
If you're looking for a novelty item or white elephant gift, this one has merit, and egg separators in general can be very useful to novice chefs. When it comes to everyday use, there are cheaper, more appealing options out there.
Banana Slicer
This makes me think I've seen everything and evokes more questions than desire to purchase. Who came up with it? Can I still use it if my banana is longer than the slicer? Apparently I'm not the only person who realizes bananas are not one size fits all. The top "most helpful" review on Amazon sites that unlike the left curved slicer, all of this reviewer's bananas curve to the right. Just think about that for a moment.
Peanut-Butter-and-Jelly Spreader
Sometimes less is more. This is not one of those times. Unless you're eating the two slices of bread separately, the peanut butter and jelly are going to touch eventually, but if you're that concerned about them mixing before putting the slices of bread together, why not use two knives or clean the first knife in between? I can see some people using this, so what makes it useless is the price. Spend $10 on a single two-sided spreader (be careful to pick it up in the middle so you don't get peanut butter hands) or you can get a 16 piece flatware set for $1 more, complete with forks and spoons too! Definitely the better option for those of us who like a spoonful of peanut butter.
Pizza Scissors
I've never found myself with a pizza (even when I didn't have a traditional rolling slicer) and thought, gee, I could really use some pizza scissors right now. The description boasts a non-stick safe nylon base that won't scratch cookware. I haven't tried this out, but I imagine it's more cumbersome than helpful, particularly for right-handed users. Instead of sliding under the piece you're cutting, it's lifting up the rest of the pizza.
Asparagus Peeler
I'm completely missing what makes the asparagus peeler useful. Even the name sounds blown out of proportion "Progressive International Asparagus Peeler 6.5-in." Do I have you "OOO"ing and "AAH"ing yet? Aside from the added ability to snip the end off asparagus and green beans, which can be done with just about any chef knife, there's nothing this peeler does that your basic peeler can't do as well. I know I'm showing my inexperience in the kitchen here, but I just wash my asparagus. Have I been doing it wrong?
Mayo Knife
I'm not a fan of mayonnaise, so perhaps there's more value to this last gadget than I realize. You'll have to tell me in the comments section. This uniquely shaped plastic "knife" is, let's face it, a glorified spatula. Are you really going through enough jars of mayo to need this specialized utensil? For that matter, are all mayo jars shaped the same? I've never really looked, but since the description explains the "unique shape reaches under the lip, on the sides and in the corners of containers," someone is convinced the contours of mayo jars are standardized.
Roll 'N Pour
I see where he's going with this. It might help elderly and kids… until the container being poured reaches 50%. Pretty sure that contraption would tip and make a bigger mess than if the person had just tipped the container while keeping it on the counter or other surface and held onto the handle. Disagree? Let me know in the comments.
Do you have a friend that shares your passion for the culinary arts? Give them a gift card and cross your fingers that they don't end up with one of these useless kitchen gadgets.

Oh, Martha Stewart is standing knee deep in a tub full of cranberries. Are we finally getting that very special episode dedicated to urinary tract infections that we so deserve?
No. No we are not. Martha was in fact catering a Thanksgiving feast which included a 1,500-square-foot pool of cranberries provided by Ocean Spray. It was all a stunt to help bring attention to Share Our Strength, a charity dedicated to children's hunger.
This is a great cause… but for real, not nearly as great as her overalls. Much better than UTIs though.

The gastroenterology experts at Winter Park Memorial Hospital understand the damaging impact conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), chronic gastritis and Crohn's disease can have on a patient's lifestyle. These doctors are specialists who strive to provide effective treatments and exceptional care for issues affecting the stomach, colon, intestines, liver, pancreas, gallbladder and esophagus. They employ cutting-edge technologies to diagnose and treat gastrointestinal pain with minimally invasive procedures. If you're battling a gastrointestinal condition, you can rest assured that you're in good hands. Florida Hospital is recognized by U.S. News & World Report as one of America's Best Hospitals in Gastroenterology.
We treat a wide range of conditions, including common conditions such as:
- Heartburn
- Acid reflux
- Irritable bowel syndrome
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Crohn's disease
- Ulcers
- Colon cancer
- Stomach cancer
- Esophageal cancer
- Histal hernia
- Hemorrhoids
In addition, Winter Park Memorial Hospital has recently added to its ranks an expert specifically trained on Barrett's esophagus, a serious complication of GERD in which the normal tissue lining the esophagus changes into tissue resembling the intestinal lining, increasing a GERD patient's risk of eventually developing a seriously and potentially fatal esophageal cancer.

Mike, thank you. We are grateful for your service, and your leadership. You have been a steady hand here, and we rely on you and your staff and all who help strengthen and operate this institution. It is people, as we all know, who make a difference. You can have a lot of sophisticated technology and resources, but without people, you don't have much.
And as you had noted in some of your comments, Mike, that has been the embodiment of this institution over many, many years, and I think represents as strong embodiment of working together today as we ever have seen.
It's a great complement to our country, and to our people, and to each of you in this room and all of those watching who are associated with the Department of Defense. And I think we're all very proud to be part of the Department of Defense, and I think America is very proud of all of you.
I know the President is, and I bring you his greetings and best wishes. I will see him later today, but I saw him two days ago and he knew I was giving these remarks and he asked particularly to pass on his regards to you and thanks to you, Colonel Gadson, and to all who serve this country so ably and proudly. Thank you.
Colonel Gadson, thank you for joining us. It is a privilege to have you here. What you represent, what your life has represented, what you continue to do for this country is pretty special. So thank you. Your sacrifices, I think we all agree, define the power of the human spirit. And we are especially honored to have you here today, on this day, as we celebrate Martin Luther King Day. I don't know of a more appropriate speaker that all of us could have chosen than to have you here today.
Martin Luther King left a powerful legacy. He was a man of vision, a man of passion, a man of commitment. He dedicated his life to a cause larger than his own self-interest – a cause that would spread across our nation and around the globe. And he was taken from us far too soon. Yesterday he would have turned 85 years old – much younger than Nelson Mandela was when he passed away last month.
I was serving in Vietnam with my brother Tom in 1968, and I still vividly recall the day our unit heard about Dr. [King's] assassination. Everyone was silent.
That tragedy threatened to deepen a racial divide that was already hurting the morale and effectiveness of our units and other units in Vietnam.
I recall the courage of our Company Commander in Vietnam, Lieutenant Jerome Johnson. He was a 23-year-old African American from Chicago, who was drafted into the Army. He went to OCS. Soon thereafter, he was in Vietnam. His older brother had been killed in Vietnam the year before.
Lieutenant Johnson was one of the most effective leaders I've ever seen. At a time when racial problems plagued the Army in Vietnam, he stood up, he confronted all of us, and he brought both black and white soldiers together. A remarkable, remarkable demonstration of leadership. He made clear, to all of us, that this was everybody's fight, that we were going to fight together, that we were all Americans.
Today, 45 years later, Lieutenant Johnson's words still ring very, very true. Everyone here, everyone in this building and this department knows that serving together means fighting together. We serve this great nation, and we serve it proudly as a team.
And we serve knowing that diversity is at the heart of our strength, of America's strength. As Dr. King said, everyone can be great. Everyone can be great because you can serve. "You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and your verb agree to serve… You only need a heart full of grace," to serve. "A soul generated by love."
We serve knowing that America's all-volunteer force is at its best when it reflects all of its people… when everyone who's qualified to serve can serve.
But the rights that make America free – rights that this department protects and defends every day – come with heavy responsibilities. Responsibilities like taking care of our people, taking care of each other, looking out for one another, and lending a hand to all those in need. Martin Luther King knew that.
He knew that no matter how you serve, service is ultimately about people. It's about hope for a better life, a better world, and through all the struggles and sacrifices that it takes, that we can turn this hope into reality.
Colonel Greg Gadson is an example of that. Even after he sacrificed so much for his country, he refused to let adversity get him down. Instead, he continued to serve. He still serves, because, as Colonel Gadson once said, "Our lives should not be about what's in it for ourselves, but really what we have to offer to our society."
After my brother Tom and I returned from Vietnam, I lost touch with Lieutenant Johnson. He was one of those people who even though your lives overlap for just a few brief moments, they stay with you – they stay with you forever. I tried to find him for a long time, but I never could.
But I found that it's easier to find people when you're Secretary of Defense… and last week, after 45 years, Lieutenant Johnson and I finally reconnected. It was a humbling moment for me.
Lieutenant Johnson was one of the best military officers I've ever known… but he was first a remarkable human being. A human being who believed all people should be treated equally and should be treated with respect. He lived that belief, just as Martin Luther King and Colonel Gadson have lived that belief.
Today, as we celebrate Martin Luther King's birthday, and as we serve our nation and each other, let us recommit ourselves to realizing Martin Luther King's vision – the vision of Colonel Gadson, of Lieutenant Johnson, and of all who believe in our country, and all who believe in each other.
And let us learn from the experiences and the examples of Colonel Gadson and Lieutenant Johnson.
And in the words of Dr. King, "Let us rise up with a greater readiness. Let us stand with a greater determination. And let us move on in these powerful days," these powerful "days of challenge." We move on in these powerful days of challenge to help make our world better, and to help make a world that "ought to be."
Thank you.
