Health Insurance Companies

Health insurance is a promise of financial compensation against any unforeseen medical expenses. A health insurance company is an organization that provides health insurance policies that individuals can purchase to protect them and their families against any loss. This policy implies that in case of any health expense, the company will compensate any financial loss. To have this cover, a person is required to pay a fixed amount periodically to the company, which is known as premium. Health insurance companies are governed by regulatory bodies that make sure that these companies do not get involved into unethical practices.

Health insurance companies offer many types of health insurance plans namely individual health insurance plans, group health insurance plans, indemnity health insurance plans and managed care health insurance plans. Individual health insurance plans can be purchased by individuals to cover them in case of any major medical expense. Group health insurance plans are usually purchased by the employers for their employees to provide coverage for their as well as their families' medical expenses. Individual health insurance is more expensive than group health insurance. Group health insurance premiums are paid by the employers. However, in certain cases, employees too contribute towards it.

However, each health insurance company will have its own unique policy of providing cover as well as services to the insured party. Thus, it is important to understand what is covered under a particular policy and what is excluded. Health insurance companies operate through their web portals. Local agents can help customers understand the details of the contract offered and can also provide a quote. Most companies have a national toll free number where a customer can call to obtain all these services.

Therefore, before buying any health insurance policy, customer must compare quotes from different insurance companies and the perils covered and only then get the policy written. It is possible to get a policy written over the phone or through the local agent.

Free Magic Tricks

Magic tricks need not be grandiose performances like those of David Copperfield, which obviously take a lot of time and money. Quite recently, the phenomenon of 'street magic' has gained popularity; street magic is more up close and personal. Street magic involves doing magic for a small group of people, in your house, in a bar, or even at your office. A real atmosphere of wonder is created because of the magician's proximity to the audience.

How to Get Started

The Internet is a huge resource for getting information about free and easy-to-learn magic tricks. Just type in the keywords 'free magic tricks' in your local search engine and the results will be endless. The age-old library is also a good source for free magic tricks, especially if you want to concentrate on tricks using one material only. Any magic trick can be easily researched, since magic often takes the form of simple science, borne out of imagination and entertainment.

Different Kinds of Magic Tricks

The most common magic tricks involve either cards or coins. These are the two basic 'tools' of any magician. Cards and coins can be used for sleight-of-hand tricks or even mind-reading tricks, which become more effortless with continued practice.

Becoming a Successful Magician

Knowing how to do the magic trick is only thirty percent of the job. Thirty-five percent goes to practice, while the remaining thirty-five percent has to do with acting. Good magicians strive to perfect their craft for fear of their secrets being revealed if anything goes wrong. If you want to avoid unwittingly showing your audience the trick behind your trick, practice to gain more confidence. Acting, or knowing how to mislead your audience with appropriate facial expressions and body language, helps create an air of mystery in any performance.

The Eel - Fishers Basket


Image : http://www.flickr.com


(A Chick Evens Story)

It was a fairly large looking basket, jammed with perfectly slimy looking eels and the old eel-fisherman felt they were simply priceless. Too heavy to lift by himself he had to pull it, so Mr. Chick Evens got out of his vehicle to help the old man carry the basket up a step onto the wooden sidewalk, taking glimpses into it-it had been his second day in Iceland, staying at a hotel in Reykjavik, he had just come back from the cliffs overlooking the coast (and a nearby lighthouse), forty-some miles outside of the city limits; he was no more than a mile or so from the city itself-now, and its coast.

The Old man was bringing the basket into a Sea Market Store with an abundance of seafood to be sorted, sold and shipped. A few workers rushed to help the old man and his assistant with the basket on the wooden walkway leading into the store.

"They look very fine," said the owner looking into the basket. Evens, frightfully putout when he heard that, they looked ugly, narrow and with a dark damp and sliminess to them, and he pulled back from the basket, and the old man, and the owner saw that.

The rain started as Chick Evens turned about and stepped into the road, his guide was waiting for him in the car. The September winds blew through his cloths, his cloths wavy like leaves on a tree. The road in front of the fish market, lead back to Reykjavik, he was kind of on top of a slight hill. The Sea Food Store (or marketplace) had a porch, smoke coming from its chimney in back of the one story building, where there was the smokehouse, a garage, water tanks. Big trees against the gray woodened structure, it looked as if it was the first of the autumn storms creeping in. As Evens was about to reach the vehicle (for he had originally been looking for a café or restaurant, he was getting hungry), the owner stood on the porch looking towards him, strangely.

"Well," the owner said to Evens, "have you ever ate eel before, or whale?"

"Hey, Mr. Evens!" said the old man stepping down off of the sidewalk step onto the road, "I'll pull one of those eels out for you to eat, we can cook it up in the back, right here (and he looked at Edgar when he said that)," remarked the old man.

The old man, and Mr. Chick Evens stood together looking up at Mr. Edgar Gordon now, then down at the basket of eels. The wind was blowing straight up the hill from the oceanfront. They could hear the surf along the Reykjavik coast.

"She's blowing down there hard," Edgar said.

"She'll blow like that until twilight," said the old man, "is your cook in?" looking at Edgar.

"Let's all go to the back, have a drink, and I'll provide the whale meat, if you provide the eel," Edgar told the old man, and the old eel-fisherman, nodded his head-yes.

Edgar went out to the kitchen and came back with three slices of whale meat, and a large eel cut up, and on the tray was a pitcher of beer and a bottle of water. Evens reached for the water. The old man reached for the beer-as they all sat by a fireplace behind the kitchen.

"All right?" he said.

"Good," said the old man.

They sat in front of the fireplace and drank the beer, and water, as the cook took the sea food off the tray and cook it, with its thin gravy.

"It's got a different, soggy and wormy like taste to it," said Mr. Evens, looking at it as if it was a live alligator. The whale meat was more to his liking.

"That's eel for yaw," said Edgar, stretching out his feet under the table. "Better take your shoes off if you're going to finish that eel," he remarked, and laughed.

"Got any coffee?" Evens asked.

"Eat the rest of the eel, that ought to clench it for you!" said Edgar. "It's a gift to try all you can in life, you can't buy everything, but you can try most things out for size. Now that basket of eels isn't as ugly as it was at first, when it first appeared to you-correct?"

"I can't get into it, but it's all right now, it isn't a bad dinner, it's just something I hadn't tried before, dissimilar to my familiar tastes that is."

Said the old man to Evens, "From old shadows what remains of them, it takes a shade of light, like dawn or anything in life, it has to slowly drift into you, enjoy now what time takes away, so much is swift to change, then comes old age. If a man has no variety, he cannot spread himself about."

Said Edgar with his grizzled voice, "So many have died, millions and millions and millions, dead in their folds, in their wrinkles and collapsed before their time, who have lived in a stage set, you are to break branches, to clear paths, to new insights, I see that in you!"

Mr. Evens thought about that for a moment, thought about how he wanted to be a writer, and then ate the whole thing (even though his deeper thoughts on the issue were flat to hackled-he felt the eel was no more than a long silk worm, that sagged as he labored to eat it, a tongue that flowed down into his belly; a creature with no neck or shoulders. He thought it was no more than an earthly mortal sea dweller that had no purpose in life, no design and to no good to any man whatsoever, a lizard without legs, eyes like a black ominous owl). It all was a symbol he told himself. "Sure," he said, and then asked both his new comrades, "Did you ever read "The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket?"

"No," said the old man, and Edgar.

"That's a real sea faring book," he commented, and they both said simultaneously, "We'll have to try that!" and all three laughed wholeheartedly, holding their stomachs.

No: 515o ((11-11-2009) (EP))

Note: In September, of 1999, the author went on a trip to Iceland, for an extended weekend, and did some whale searching in the ocean, off Iceland's coast. He went into the interior of Iceland, and then out to the cliffs overlooking the ocean and to where there resided an old lighthouse nearby, and to an area where astronauts train, a rough and hot terrain indeed. Also to the Blue Lagoon, for swimming, and the fishing market he describes in the story "The Eel-fishers Basket," where he stopped for a short period of time.

Kids Magic Tricks Your Children Will Love


Image : http://www.flickr.com


Interesting in learning some kids magic tricks? They're easy to learn and do. If you're a magician who's just starting out, you may want to look into kids magic tricks. They don't need a lot of practice or preparation.

The Eggcup Trick, the Broken Pencil Trick, and the Vanishing Coin Trick are all part of magic kits that are easy to learn. Most of the kits include the items you'll need to perform the tricks.

Most kids magic tricks don't require too much time to prepare. Just as an example, you only need two matchboxes (one of them empty) and a rubber band to perform the Empty Matchbox trick.

The matchbox trick is easy. All you do is ask the audience how many matches they think are in the box. You shake it, and they hear the matches rattling. The trick is, you're holding the empty box while the full one is attached unseen to your arm; the audience hears the full one shaking.

The Wine into Water trick is another excellent kids magic trick. All you need is water, bleaching powder, and some red food coloring.

You will first pour water into a clear glass and mix in some red food dye. The water will now resemble wine.

Add some bleaching powder to a separate glass. Now, dump the red "wine" into the other glass. Like magic, it turns clear! That's the magic of bleach. But if there's going to be any kids around, there needs to be strict adult supervision. Bleach is a dangerous chemical.

What if you can't find a good magic kit? It's a simple matter to perform kids magic tricks by using common household items. After all, you only need a pencil if you're going to do the Rubber Pencil Trick.

You can make the pencil look rubbery if you hold it loosely near the tip and wobble it around. Kids love seeing these kinds of illusions.

Remember, kids magic tricks are fun not just for kids, but for adults too. If you're an adult who wants to pick up some magic tricks, it's a great idea to start trying the easy ones first.

When you can easily perform kids magic tricks for a crowd, you will be better prepared to try doing more complicated tricks for an audience.

Mentalism Secrets Revealed - The Real Truth About Stage Magic


Image : http://www.flickr.com


If you have ever seen David Blaine perform the voodoo ash trick you will know what we mean, but it doesn't stop there. We all know the mastery of Criss Angel and the amazing things he can do, and this information will empower you to the levels of these great people, including the difficulty of the levitation trick we all know and love to watch.

A combination of illusion and wonderful stage magic, mentalism is fast becoming recognized as a very powerful performing art, of the likes we have not really seen in the past. However when we look to the history and consider the great mentalists like Uri Geller and Richard Osterlind, we can see that it has been performed in different ways to achieve different results.

In history, mentalism was more about possessing supernatural powers and special mental abilities. The latest masters in this amazing field, like Criss Angel, David Blaine and Derrin Brown, have managed to redefine the art of mentalism for the 21st century.

One of the fantastic things about today's mentalism is the total freshness of the illusions and tricks we have all come to know and love when watching these modern day masters perform their craft. Each illusion having its own level of difficulty means that anybody can learn these secrets of mentalism.

Most popular would be the tricks that involve the illusion of mind reading or telepathy. Imagine doing as these modern day masters do, and be able to foretell the outcome of certain events or read the minds of your audience, with the obvious outcome of absolutely baffling your audience!

Telepathy is one of those abilities that can be performed using many different props, and in so many different ways, it may not seem that two events are ever performed the same way. It truly is an amazing ability to possess, and mentalism is the way to learn it.

To make it one of the most exciting and awe-inspiring arts, there is usually a mix of clairvoyance, precognition and even psycho-kinesis thrown in to absolutely blow the minds of those lucky enough to witness it. Even by itself the art of psycho-kinesis, which is the art of being able to move or manipulate things with your mind, is thrilling to witness.

These things could include bending spoons, or moving objects, and we all know the excitement of seeing this happen before our eyes.

It may seem impossible at this stage, but with a little practice and the correct guidance, it really is possible for anyone to achieve the status that these modern day mentalists have achieved.

If you are one of those people who would consider yourself to be a budding mentalist, and would like to become involved in an in-depth course about mentalism, to learn the fundamentals and a lot of inspiring tricks, or if you are an accomplished mentalist and would just like a few more tricks to pump up your set, you have come to the right site.

We have a vast number of exciting and informative articles, as well as our EBook that contains all of the information on this site, and a further 'exclusive' EBook that contains many new tricks and descriptions of each. We hope you are ready to use only the powers of your mind, to completely defy the law of physics.

The Men That Are Blue

There are some things in this world that none of us will ever know. What is the meaning of life, was there a second gunman on the grassy null, or how does someone turn three guys, who are covered in blue paint and hitting PVC pipes, into a smash hit on the Las Vegas strip? This smash hit is known as the Blue Man Group.

The Blue Man Group, which is at the Venetian Hotel, has three blue men, who are always exploring the world around them with a lot of curiosity. The result of this curiosity is marshmallows being thrown, paint being spit, Twinkies being the main course for dinner, making music out of PVC pipe, and having tons of paper covering the audience.

The show contains many random objects and events, but everything is used in a way that will make you laugh your head off. The show even presents you with facts about the world in a way that your teachers at school would have never dreamed of doing.

This outstanding show also has a lot of visual effects to enhance the audience's experience. Lighted up stick figures come out of the walls and dance around, modern plumping is explained, and statues dance like there is no tomorrow.

Most shows in Las Vegas keep to a certain theme. Cirque Du Soleil is exciting, Lance Burton is mysterious, and Frank Caliendo is hilarious. Blue Man Group is an unusual show because it contains all three of these qualities. If you don't know which show to see, start by buying a Blue Man Group ticket and it will be like buying every other show ticket on the strip and seeing them all in one night.

Dale Chihuly is Known For Beautiful and Creative Blown Glass


Image : http://www.flickr.com


The blown glass work of Dale Chihuly is instantly recognizable by artists and non-artists alike. He is the artist who has revolutionized the blown glass media. Chihuly's blown glass pieces are admired throughout the United States and in many countries throughout the world. There is no other artist who is more famous for beautiful glass pieces than those created by Chihuly.

The Studio Glass Movement came to be because of the work of Chihuly. Previously, blown glass was created in a solitary way, with a single artist in his studio. However, the Studio Glass Movement involved the concept of teams, with each person taking on a specific job to create a beautifully intricate blown glass piece. Chihuly and his teams have created glass pieces that have become part of permanent exhibits throughout the world in major museums, hotels, and other types of businesses.

The blown glass media did not receive the type of prestige in the past that it has now. This fact is also due to the influence of Dale Chihuly. The artist developed his love for the media in the early 1960s and continues to produce the most beautiful creations of glass every seen. After receiving his degree in sculpture, Chihuly took what he knew and honed his skills with blown glass, teaching other students who worked with him how to express art with glass. His work ranges from small pieces, such as bowls, to full blown pieces, such as glass sculptures that are as tall as buildings.

Donner Party

The discovery of gold in California in the 1840's caused a massive influx of settlers. Pioneers headed out from across the United States to the west in search of fortune. One group of pioneers that came was the Donner Party, organized by brothers George and Jacob Donner. They set off from Springfield, Illinois in the spring of 1846 and headed west to California.

The Party infamously decided to take their wagon train up over the Sierra Nevada Mountains in Northern California, up the Truckee River and over what became known as Donner Pass. They arrived in the Truckee, California area in late October 1846 and continued westward in search of fortune. One group of pioneers that came was the Donner Party, organized by brothers George and Jacob Donner. They set off from Springfield, Illinois in 1846 and headed west. They decided to take their wagon train up over the Sierra Nevada Mountains, up the Truckee River and over what became known as Donner Pass. They arrived in the Truckee area in late October 1846 and headed west to Sutter's Fort, on the west side of the Sierras. Winter storms had already arrived to the area but despite the snow, they pressed westward. Due to the conditions, the Party could not scale the Sierras and returned eastward to a large lake, now known as Donner Lake, about eight miles east of Donner Pass. There they set up camp there in a nasty storm.

At that time, there were no provisions that could be had in Truckee. The emigrants slaughtered their remaining oxen for food, but there was not enough meat to go around. Soon the party ran out of food and starvation set in. In mid December 1848, a group of fifteen from the Party headed west determined to reach Sutter's Fort. The group consisted of ten men and five women. The group was caught without shelter in a raging blizzard and four members of the party died. The surviving members resorted to cannibalism, then continued on their journey. The remaining members, two men and all five women, finally reached Sutter's Fort in mid January 1847.

Back at Donner Lake, the remaining members of the Party maintained their camps. Due to starvation, many in the party died, including children. News of the severity of the situation got out and Californians launched rescue parties to try to save the remaining members. When the first rescue party arrived, fourteen emigrants had already died at the camps and the rest were extremely weak. Twenty-one members of the Party set out with the relief party in late February 1847.

One week later, a second rescue group arrived. While there had been no more deaths, some of the thirty-one emigrants left behind had begun to eat the dead. The second rescue group was able to take fourteen members of the Party with them to safety, leaving nine behind. A third relief group arrived later in March, rescuing four children but having to leave five people behind. When the fourth and final rescue group reached the lake in mid-April, only one man had survived. In total, over forty members of the Donner Party perished in the winter of 1846-1847, including numerous children.

Today, Donner Memorial State Park on the south side Donner Lake commemorates the Donner Party telling the history of the massive loss of life and human suffering. The Pioneer Monument near the Emigrant Trail Museum in the State Park depicts the Donner Party's Murphy family cabin site allowing visitors to see how members of the Party lived, many in their final days. The motion picture "The Donner Party" depicting the tale of these early western settlers is being released in December 2009.

How to Do Magic Tricks For Fun - Removing Your Shirt by Magic!


Image : http://www.flickr.com


This a great party trick and will really make people believe you have extraordinary powers. 

How The Trick Appears To The Audience

The Magician is dressed wearing a jacket with a shirt and tie. He asks someone to tie his wrists together as tightly as they can with a roll of sellotape or parcel tape. There is no doubt that his hands are bound together so tightly that he will have to be cut loose. The Magician tells the audience he will demonstrate how to pass one solid object through another. The Magician then goes into another room for a minute. When he steps back into the room, he is still wearing the jacket and tie but has removed his shirt! His hands are still securely bound and no one has a clue as to how he did it!

How The Trick Is Done

This trick seems impossible but is really quite simple. To prepare for the trick you take off your shirt and then put it back over your shoulders like a cloak. Without putting your arms in the sleeves, button up the collar and the top three or four buttons. Then, again without putting your arms in the sleeves, button the cuffs around your wrists. Put your tie on as normally and then your jacket. If you have done it properly, it will just look as though you are wearing your clothes normally and no one will suspect a thing.

The Performance

When you are ready to perform the trick ask someone to bind your wrists together with sellotape or parcel tape. Make sure they do it tightly, so everyone can see it will be impossible for you to remove your hands with being cut free.

When they have bound your wrists, tell them that you are going to demonstrate how to defy the laws of physics and pass one solid object through another.

You tell them that you are going to step outside the door for a moment and when you knock on the door, they must open the door and let you back in.

When you are in the other room use your fingers to undo your collar buttons. Then loosen your tie and slide it off over the top of your head; however, do not untie it. Undo the rest of your shirt buttons and unbutton your cuff buttons with your teeth. This sounds difficult but is actually quite easy to do.

Grab the the collar of your shirt at the back of your neck and pull upwards. You will find that your can pull your shirt out of your jacket. Put your tie back on and tighten it. Place the shirt over your arm and knock on the door.

When they open the door, your audience will amazed to see that you have managed to pass your shirt  through your tie and jacket!

This trick is so unusual and so weird, that people will remember it for years to come.

Do You Believe?

Today is a day of destiny, thought the magic wishing fairy as she rode on her white unicorn. There is something really special and exciting happening in the air. She felt a thrill race through her, like she had never felt before as they raced across the sky. Suddenly she heard a faint sound from a land far away. She just knew she must respond to the call, as something deep inside guided her on. As she touched Magus, her white unicorn instantly leapt forward leaving behind a sparkle of coloured lights in their tracks. Now there comes a time in every Magic Wishing Fairy's life when she knows from the moment she is born that she must pass through the black hole found on the other side of the rainbow. Once this happens her life changes totally forever.

Instinctively Mary Lou the wishing fairy knew that the time had arrived for this to happen. Feeling a little scared and yet quite excited she urged Magus forward. They passed through many lands on their journey waving to everybody they saw. Each time they were greeted with cheers of support and encouragement. Until they came to the land of the giants, then everything changed. The sky became very dark and stormy. Thunder was belching in the air and lightning was streaking across the sky Mary Lou became very agitated and a little frightened as she remembered stories from way back that her Grandmother had told her. These stories held memories of terror as these giants had treated many people very badly. Then out of nowhere a giant stood in their path. He was very ugly with black, angry looking eyes. His arms were folded across his chest and his feet stretched wide apart. His scowl was creating the most fearsome look on his face. He growled at Mary Lou and Magus, "What is your business in the Land of the giants?"

Feeling very small and fragile Mary Lou gathered all her courage as she stammered, "Why, Mr. Giant we are just passing through to the black hole found on the other side of the rainbow." The giant started bellowing with laughter, which was heard throughout the ages as giant thunder claps. "You stupid fairy, this is the black hole that legend has foretold. I am telling you that no-one comes into this land and passes through alive." He then started to lick his lips as he envisaged the meal that was before him. The fairy could be entrée and the unicorn main course. He smiled with glee. His fortune had changed. Lightning started to crackle at his feet and his whole body glowed. Mary Lou and Magus saw inside the giant's stomach and much to their horror there were many wishing fairies and unicorns. They had met their fate at the giant's horrible desires through his incredible hunger.

All of a sudden this brave little fairy gathered together an incredible ball of white light into her heart and sent it flying into the giant's head. Surprised and stunned at what was happening, he stumbled, and then fell over with the impact from the force of this ball of light. Magus and Mary Lou watched in amazement because as he fell to the ground the earth opened up, letting go a screaming sound that they had never heard before. As this was happening the giant's stomach was ripped apart and all the fairies and unicorns, who he had gobbled up, came flying up out of the ground. Next came millions of bats, then frogs and finally came thousands of goldfish.

A giant cauldron then appeared out of nowhere, bubbling over with a liquid that smelt of foul gases. The steam that arose filled the air with a stench that reeked of all those people who had died as they had attempted to pass through this land, so that they could find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. "What was happening here?" thought Mary Lou and Magus as all the fairies, unicorns, bats, frogs and goldfish gathered around them. Nobody knew what to do. They all sat around in despair as their fate appeared to be sealed. They felt as if they were trapped in this horrible place, as they had no idea how to get back to where they had come from Then from out of nowhere a pale blue mist began to form, as a chant was heard coming from the bowels of the inner earth. A beautiful lady started walking towards them from out of the mist. Behind her Mary Lou could see into worlds that she didn't even know existed. The lady smiled and spoke directly to Mary Lou the Magic Wishing Fairy, who had dared to face the horrible giant, that gruesome creature who had preyed on all who had wanted to create a better life for themselves and their families.

"You have come of age, little one. Over the years, we of the inner earth have waited for some-one to come along who would have the courage to face the monster that took on the form of a giant. This ugly thing had tricked all the giants into believing the lies he told so that he could rule this land. He wanted the pot of gold, which is found at the end of the rainbow all for him-self. We have been very disturbed, however our hands were tied. We have waited for you to come of age so that many who have perished at the horrible monsters' whims could be saved. That time has come. I am here to guide you forward to the land of beauty and love. We have watched the giants live in misery hidden away in the depths of the earth for thousands of millions of years. They are now free to come back and re-build their homeland." As the lady spoke giant steps were heard coming from the centre of the earth by all who sat around. Amazed at the sight that met their gaze, they started to clap their hands welcoming the giants back to their former land.

The lady then included everyone as she spoke, "Remember this day, for you have reached into the Land of the Dreaming. You will never know fear or pain again." With that she held her hands up in the air, the magic that then followed was absolutely unbelievable to all those who were there. The love they experienced changed all the worlds that Mary Lou had seen behind this lady. All the bats began to fly around in the sky freed at long last. They flapped their wings with joy as they circled the crowd. The frogs jumped to and fro croaking their sound, filling the air with the sound of freedom. The goldfish began to swim around the crowd creating a golden glow in the air. Magic filled the air. "What is your name lady?" Mary Lou asked. The lady simply smiled and said, "From your far distant past, I have come. For many aeons you have known me as the Mother Isis, now I shall be called Exodus." With that the giants gathered around and lifted Mary Lou high in the air. She clicked her fingers and Magus flew to her side. Head spinning Mary Lou and her friend the unicorn began to tumble through the ages. Unknown to Mary Lou all her new found friends were following the trail they made.

A glowing golden ball of light hung suspended in mid air as they surged forward. Immediately they were engulfed in this ball. This special magic wishing fairy began to laugh. She laughed so hard and for such a long time that everything and everybody around her began to change. A little goblin began to form out of the golden ball, rubbing his eyes he stated loudly, "What is all the noise, you are hurting my ears, I have been asleep for such a long time and now you have awoken me from my slumber. What do you think you are doing?" Mary Lou waved her magic wand and Goblin dissolved again into the golden ball, as she couldn't be bothered with the antics of troublesome creatures anymore. She was very tired after her long ordeal. Rubbing her friend Magus's horn she told him how she was feeling. Magus knew it was now time to tell Mary Lou who he truly was. There could never be secrets between them anymore as they had gone through too much to-gether. "I am your guardian spirit, you will never fall to harm as no matter where you fly I will always be by your side. Feel safe little one." Sighing she fell asleep. In her dreams she saw a golden cauldron and in it were the dreams of all the peoples' from all the lands she had seen behind the lady who came out of the mist in the land of the giants. It bubbled over and the gold it contained dropped into the laps of all those who had followed Mary Lou and Magus.

Exodus's voice was heard, "Congratulations, you have reached your destination; you have fulfilled your mission. The pot of gold at the end of the rainbow does exist, and the magic secret for all who want to reach it is to trust and follow their hearts' desires. The black hole no longer exists. You have changed it forever." Mary Lou and Magus sighed contentedly as they knew that whatever was in front of them didn't really matter, so long as they always had fun playing.

No task would ever be too great or too small ever again. And so the legend of the Magic Wishing Fairy began. For centuries since, the grandmother's of old would tell this story to their children as they sat around the campfires.

Do you believe?

Magic Tricks Revealed - The Psychic Touch

If you like the idea of doing psychic illusions, this is a simple trick that will quickly convince anybody of your amazing psychic powers. It involves physical touch of the hands, so it's great to use on a date, and can quickly build up a strong emotional connection. If you are really bold, you can approach strangers on the street, and quickly build up a reputation as a stunning street psychic.

This is how it will seem to the innocent observer. You explain to them that you have been studying an esoteric form of mental mind reading, but because you are just a beginner, you have to be in physical contact with somebody before you can actually read their minds. You prepare by rubbing your hands together, or doing some deep breathing, or some other seemingly metaphysical preparatory work.

Then you have them hold out one of their hands, palm forward, fingers slightly separated. Instruct them to breath deeply, relax, and close their eyes. Then you place your hand against theirs, so your palms and fingers are touching each other. Tell them to choose which finger, and to visualize a swirl of golden energy around the finger. Tell them to concentrate on their finger, and the swirl.

After they visualize for about a minute or so, you guess the finger they are thinking of. You try again, and each time you will guess correctly. You can explain that through your breath and their powerful visualizations, your body meridians were in sync and you connected on a psychic level. This will get you off to a great start if you do this on a first or second date with somebody.

Here's the trick. As they think of their finger, and visualizing some kind of energy swirling around it, the finger in question will twitch slightly. By keeping your fingers relaxed, and pressed against theirs, you'll feel which one is twitching, and guess correctly most of the time. It's a pretty simple trick, and when you tell a good story to go along with it, they will never guess how you do it.

One way to not get caught is as soon as you figure which finger they are thinking of, pull back and tell them you need to read their aura to get an accurate psychic reading, and have them focus on the same finger. This way they won't suspect you are guessing by touch or anything, so long as you are convincing with your aura story. If you do use this on a date, you can teach them how to do this trick, which will lead to lots of hand touching, which is always enjoyable on a date. Have fun.

Traditional Versus Electronic Books


Image : http://www.flickr.com


In modern day society, people must make the decision of whether they want to read a hard copy of a book or an electronic copy of a book. Traditional printed books are still common and used in workplaces, in schools, and for leisure. However, electronic books are slowly shrinking the market for real books. People are becoming more environmentally cautious, therefore they consider the amount of paper used to print a book and sometimes view it as waste. Traditional printed books are also heavy and take up a lot of space. They are beneficial for people who like to highlight and underline texts that they read, and pages can be bookmarked and referenced at a later date.

Electronic books are on the rise. iPads and the Amazon Kindle are means by which people can read ebooks. Ebooks are electronic books that can be read on these devices. These devices are lightweight and can fit almost anywhere, while containing numerous books and pieces of information, all weighing less than a pound. No paper is wasted, and storage space is maximized due to the amount of dense content these devices can hold. Page numbers can be referenced just as easily as pages in a traditional book. These devices are very useful, but they also have the ability to extremely strain a person's eyes. The Kindle, for example, is very small and the light from the screen of the iPad strains the eyes as well.

Even though we have electronic technology that allows us to view many books using only one device, traditional books are tough to replace for a variety of reasons. First, many people who are older prefer to have a book to hold, because it feels more personal and people can mark up the books however they want. Schools still use traditional books because they cannot expect every student to be able to afford a Kindle or iPad. Some colleges, however, let students decide whether they want to buy the traditional book or the ebook as a course material. Traditional books are hard to replace because we already have so many of them and we are not going to throw them all away just because we have technology that allows us to read them electronically. The publishing industry still exists and produces hard copies of books every day. The publishing industry is not going to die out very fast. It might die out slowly, but until the price of electronic devices that allow us to read ebooks decreases, publishing companies are still making a lot of money. Lastly, habit reinforces our ways. It has been habit for so many years to pick up books and read them, and reading books electronically is a step in a new direction that people will have to get used to over time.

Three "EPIC" magic/card tricks for beginners (with Tutorial)

NOTE: While I uploaded this video last year, I didn't make it "public" until today (27-1-2008) lol This is the 3rd video of my "Simple Illusions" series. First time with Tutorial. Three very simple illusions based on the same principle, performed in an "EPIC STORY" style... (I'm just joking about the "epic" part) there will be a tutorial after it, with a bonus illusion at the end.

Card Magic Trick - Royal Mounties

This is one of the very easy card tricks that you can perform with your friends. No special deck of cards is required. All you need is just an ordinary deck of playing cards.

Before performing this trick, you need to secretly look at the bottom card of the deck and remember it. This will be your key.

Then, allow the spectator to select a card from the deck and have him look and remember his selected card and replace it on top of the deck. You cut the deck and complete the cut, this will place your key directly on top of the spectator's selected card.

Then you say "There is an old story about the Canadian Mounted Police, who boast that they always get their man. This deck has two Kings who are actually retired 'Mounties.' Please remember the name of your card while I find my policemen."

Turn the deck with faces toward you. Spread the cards, pretend to look for the Kings, but actually, you are looking for your key (the card which you secretly look and remember before performing the trick). After that, you cut the deck to make your key to the bottom of the deck. Also, this will make the spectator's selected card be the top card of the pack.

Then, you go through the cards again and remove the two black Kings (Clubs and Spades). Place these two Kings on the table, face up.

You then say "Here they are, two of the Royal Mounted Police. I'm going to put them into the middle of the deck, face up." Now, place the deck behind your back. Pick up the first King and place it face up under the top card of the deck (the selected card). Pick up the second King and put it face up on top of the deck. Then, cut the pack.

Then you say "The two boys are now in the deck and hopefully they're hard at work looking for their man." Then, you ask your spectator for the name of his selected card. After the card has been named, place the deck on the table and spread the cards. The two Kings will be face up in the middle, with the selected card face down between them.

Have the spectator look at the card and you might say in the end that the tale was true that the Mounties always get their man.

Make An Amazing Magic Ball!

This is one of the easiest tricks to do and the results are truly amazing. I picked up the plastic ball at Hobby Lobby. The steel ball is a Chinese Stress Ball. You can play around with difference sizes and weights for different speeds.

Top 3 Magic Trick Tips to Performing Magic

Magic has been around for as long as one can remember. Magic is
something that can take people from reality to fantasy. I have
been interested in magic since I was just little toddler. I'll
never forget the day when I actually thought that my very own
ear could produce nickels and dimes, real money! I was amazed
at how my uncle could just reach out to my ear and pull out a
dime at will. This was unbelievable in my eyes! What was more
unbelievable was that my uncle actually let me keep the money
that he kept pulling from my ear. I would run down to the local
candy store and get my favorite sugar coated candy and would be
on cloud nine for the rest of the day. Funny thing was, is when
I tried to reach into my ear, there was no money coming out. How
was it that my uncle could do such a thing and I couldn't? Well
that is when I needed to find out how this was done and was
introduced to the wonderful world of magic!

Over the years I have learned many magic tricks. From getting
my first magic trick set, you know, the 50 magic tricks in one
box set, classic stuff. They still sell the same magic tricks
in that one box that I learned 25 odd years ago. Nicer
packaging of course and just slightly more expensive, but still
a great introduction to magic. The one thing that is not taught
in these magic trick sets is the actual art of performing the
actual magic trick. We can all follow the instructions on how
to do to the magic trick, but no one really tells us what to say
or how to act before, during, and after the magic trick. I have
learned over the years through experience and from watching the
masters of magic first hand, on exactly what it takes to create
the moment of astonishment and disbelief. I present to you, The
Top 3 Magic Trick Tips to Performing Magic! These will
guarantee great reactions and memorable moments when performing
your future magic tricks.

1. Patter - This is the most important piece of your routine
when doing magic tricks. You can take an ordinary magic trick
and turn it into a whole theatrical event if you can come up
with the right dialogue to assist your magic trick. Now this is
hard to teach but there are some common rules you should follow.

One is to always look into your spectators' eye. Make sure you
have their attention and they are listening to your every word.
Second is humor. Humor is what gets people in a relaxed state
and sets them up to be caught off guard as to what you are about
to perform.

2. After Effect - Once you have performed your magic trick and
your spectator is freaking out as to what they have just
witnessed, do not say nothing to them. Just stay quiet for a
minute and just stare at them. I do this all the time and it
drives people nuts! They will just flip out, wanting to know
what just happened but you are not saying a word. You just let
them talk and talk and they will build up what just happened
even more just by themselves. Try it, it works, you'll see what
I mean.

3. Confidence - You have to go in knowing that you are going to
pull off one of the biggest magic tricks ever. You can't be
going in nervous or weak, it will show and take away from the
trick as the spectator will suspect something right from the
beginning. Practice, practice, practice until you can do it
blind folded. You need to come across as you truly are magical
and have no doubt that in your mind that you can show someone
something truly amazing. Your spectators will feed off this
energy and will give you more respect for it.

Magic Card Trick Secrets Revealed

Ever watched a David Blaine show imagined what it would be like if you could master the secrets of magic? Well with a little bit of practice and determination you can become a master and every one of your friends' favorite magician. One thing you should keep in mind is that every professional started with small and easy magic card tricks.

One easy card trick you could start with is this: first get a normal deck of playing cards, shuffle the cards so your friends will see it's not a trick deck, then have a spectator choose a card, concentrate on it for a while and then place it at the top of the deck, tell him to cut the cards once or twice and then search through the deck and amaze your friends by guessing the exact card. The secret to this fun trick is the bottom card, while you shuffle your magic card deck, always keep an eye on it. When your friend cuts the card the bottom card goes right on top of the chosen one and the magic card trick is complete.

Once you master this fun magic trick you can be on your way to learn magic and more complicated illusions and further enrapture your audience just like the famous magicians. By using optical illusions and sleight of hand, the number of card magic tricks and other kinds of street magic and mind games you'll be able to practice is unimaginable.

The more established names like David Blaine and Chris Angel reached a level where they can perform amazing street magic by using optical and special effects that make possible even the most amazing magic tricks like levitation, walking on water or even going through glass or walls. You might not catch them with a trick coin but magic card tricks will be playing a part of their repertoire forever. Their secrets might not be revealed for a long time but you'll see that by following instructions and tips found on the internet at ellusionist and in other sources, you can learn magic tricks and polish your skills at magic card tricks to a point where your audience will be gathering cards that you leave behind as keepsakes.

The free magic branch of magic card tricks is called by some "easy magic" because you don't need to invest a lot in card magic but is nevertheless appreciated because it can be spectacular and the time and effort put into learning magic card tricks is not to be looked upon with ease.

Easy magic tricks can be performed by almost everybody and mastering coin tricks, card sleights is at the tip of your finger, the way to go with any magic trick or card trick is "learn by doing", fill your pocket with free magic practice them as much as you can.
