Hindu Force: Dynamo's card tricks revealed

Here's Dynamo performing a card trick - very good!




Here's the explanation - he is using the Hindu Force.





Watch the Dynamo trick again. Look at 20 seconds - the 4 of Spades is at the top. At 25 seconds, he flips the top card over and puts it at the bottom...

He's an excellent performer...

Polyphasic sleep

Polyphasic sleep refers to the practice of sleeping multiple times in a 24-hour period—usually more than two, in contrast to biphasic sleep (twice per day) or monophasic sleep (once per day). Check this link for more information (see here).

And I bought a great book from the person who created the Uberman schedule. Check this link for the book and explore the blog (see here).

Looks great. I will try it when I get the chance.

I think I said something similar (see here). Obviously I'm not the first to think such thoughts...
