如何侦查针孔相机的存在?
第一,你需要有一个用完了的厕纸芯
第二,你需要有一把手电筒
第三,把厕纸芯,套在一个眼睛,把手电筒放到,与你的视线平行,然后,扫描你怀疑的地方,如果有看到一些,小小的反光点,就要去查看,很可能就是针孔相机。

圆的冰块球配威士忌更顺畅 Seamless ice-spheres for superior whiskey-rocks
Using a sphere of ice (as opposed to a cube) in your whiskey-rocks is nice because the round ice melts more slowly than the square stuff (better surface-area/volume ratio). Now a Japanese company has introduced a mold for making a perfect, seamless ice-sphere:
Taisin has introduced a mold that seamlessly creates a perfect sphere, no chipping and shaving required. Simple place a chunk of ice into the metal press and, as it melts, the device will close around the ice forming a ball, which is then released by the flick of a switch.
The Ice Mold, available in 55, 65, 70, and 80mm mold sizes, can make 30-40 ice balls an hour.
Spheres of ice are preferred by serious on the rocks drinkers because the reduced surface size means that the ice melts at a slower pace, keeping your drink
圆的冰块球,让你的威士忌,更凉快,因为圆的冰块球比方的冰块溶解的比较慢。
一家如本的公司正在生产制造这种无缝圆冰球的模具。

路線指標手表
At times, inventors of ages past showed enormous ingenuity in the construction of their charmingly intricate devices. Other times? They just took an existing idea and, bereft of creativity, made it smaller, more fiddly and less functional. Come to think of it, not much has changed: only the aesthetics.
At first glance, this 1927 map watch is pretty nifty: an antediluvian GPS, don't you know. It was called the Plus Four Wristlet Route Indicator, a name so clunky, unmemorable and artless that it even sounds like the name of a modern GPS device. The idea was simple: the Wooster-esque motorist would putter around England, scrolling a tiny paper map loaded in his wrist as he went with two black knobs. If you took a turn, you simple slid out one map and inserted another one and continued on your way.
What ho! Ingenious! Except a complete road map only cost a few pence back in 1927, where as this device would have set you back around 5 quid. And just like modern GPS map providers, the real business model was in selling you additional maps.
Which leaves the design. I quite like it: it's cheap, but whimsical and adventurous, like something you might strap on your wrist to traverse Oz.
乍看之下,這1927年的地圖手表是相當漂亮的:
它的名字是Plus Four Wristlet Route Indicator(路線指標手表)。
你只要轉動兩個黑色的旋鈕,地圖就會轉換。很酷吧?
現代的(GPS)全球定位系统的想法,應該由此而來的吧?

Mysterious Full-Automatic Mahjong Table 神秘的全面自动麻将檯
Mysterious "Full-Automatic Mahjong Table"
I admit it: I have no idea what this "Full-Automatic Mahjong Table" actually does, but the name is pretty evocative. I have a vision of a million tiny magnets on servos in the bowels of the table that auto-drag the tiles into place.
Automatic Mahjong table adopts the working principle of electricity, light and magnetism, and it is controlled by microcomputer programs. It can effectively achieve the automatic shuffling and dealing of Poker tiles, and automatic dice tossing in a quick and fair way, with stable performance, long period of non-malfunction, and adding entertainment interests. It used two diffentely colors Mahjong Tiles with magnetic.
神秘的"全面自动麻将檯"
我承认:我不知道这"全面自动麻将檯"真正作用,但名称是相当出位的 。
自动麻将台所采用的是电力,光学和磁铁原理操作,由计算机(电脑)程序控制。它可以自动洗牌,和自动抛骰子。
