You can never count to one trillion !

2015-03-09T04:20:00.002-07:00

This one might be a no brainer if you've thought about it before. How many numbers can you count to in five seconds ?

For fast counters, out loud is about twenty seven seconds. In your head, it might be closer to thirty five.

Of course because higher numbers take longer to say, a fast counter can typically hit around 200 in sixty seconds. If you bring that up to an hour, it's somewhere around 1,200.
Doing the math without factoring in the amount of time it takes to say the higher numbers, it would take over 9,000 years to get to one trillion. If you're counting in your head, the results won't be much better.

If you count in your head for 24 hours straight, you will reach somewhere around 600,000. One whole year nonstop would give you 220 million, and if you counted for your entire life, you would only reach the billions, But you will never reach a "trillion".

Well, if you ever find yourself immortal and floating through space after the Earth is destroyed, now you know what you can do for fun.

    ┗▶ As an engineer, Leonardo's ideas were vastly ahead of his time. He conceptualised a helicopter, a tank, concentrated solar power, a calculator, the double hull and outlined a rudimentary theory of plate tectonics.

     ┗▶ His conceptual drawings included plans for musical instruments, war machines, calculators, boats and other ideas. Many of these plans were limited by the level of technology at the time.

     ┗▶ Flight was of particular interest to da Vinci. He studied the flight of birds and created plans for flying machines that resemble hang gliders and helicopters.

★ As a Scientist

┗▶ As a scientist, he greatly advanced the state of knowledge in the fields of anatomy, civil engineering, optics, and hydrodynamics.

Superhero Thor is now a WOMAN!

2014-07-17T05:25:00.000-07:00

Marvel reveals superhero Thor is now a WOMAN!

Marvel creates a storm of controversy as it reveals Thor is a woman

- God of Thunder to be goddess in latest comic book series

- Marvel is trying to attract more women readers with strong female lead

-------------------------------------------------

Comic book fans have been rocked by an unexpected move by Marvel, which has revealed that Thor is now a woman.

The hammer-wielding superhero will appear in her more shapely form in October, as Marvel experiments with bringing in a new audience.

Reaction to the proposed change was mixed, with fans taking to Marvel's Facebook page to rail against changes to their childhood heroes.

Many questioned how the plot line will allow for this mysterious blonde woman to take over the hammer of Thor, speculating on whether she is a long-lost relative.

But Marvel has said simply that the new character using the power of Mjölnir - the hammer - is Thor.

'This new Thor isn't a temporary female substitute - she's now the one and only Thor, and she is worthy!' Marvel editor Wil Moss said.

**Wonders of Mathematics - Infinite out of Nothing !

2013-04-01T00:26:00.004-07:00

How can you get something infinite out of nothing ?

"The point appeared in the circle
And was not;
But it was the dot
That the circle begot."

In geometry, a point has no dimension. It has no diameter, no depth. It does not really exist in space; it is really only an idea. Yet when you start to move it, its trail creates a line. Move it around another point, you create an arc. Continue describing that arc, and its end will eventually meet its beginning, and form an endless circle.

From nothing, something has taken form. From the point, a circle emerges. It is the existence of the circle that proves the existence of the point. The point is not-being; the circle is being.

Best Moral Story!

A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the
bird froze and fell to the ground in a large field.

While it was lying there, a cow came by and
dropped some dung on it. As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, it began to realize
how warm it was. The dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy.

A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate.
Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the
pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.

Moral of the story:

1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.
2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.
3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep your mouth shut!

*A great story about Mozart's long nose

2013-04-01T00:08:00.000-07:00

A good story is told of Mozart, the great composer, at the time he was a pupil with Haydn. It shows that a long nose is sometimes useful:

Haydn one day challenged his pupil to compose a piece of music which he could not play at sight. Mozart accepted the banter, and a supper and Champagne were to be the forfeit. Everything being arranged between the two composers, Mozart took his pen and in five minutes dashed off a piece of music, and, much to the surprise of Haydn, handed it to him, saying, “There is a piece of music which you cannot play, and I can. You are to give it the first trial.”

Haydn smiled contemptuously at the visionary presumption of his pupil, and placing the notes before him, struck the keys of the instrument. Surprised at its simplicity, he dashed away until he reached the middle of the piece, when, stopping all at once, he exclaimed, “How is this, Mozart? How is this? Here my hands are stretched to both ends of the piano, and yet there’s a middle key to be touched. Nobody can play such music – not even the composer himself.”

Mozart smiled at the half-excited indignation of the great master, and taking the seat he had quitted, struck the instrument with such an air of self-assurance that Haydn began to think himself duped. Running along through the simple passages, he came to that part which his teacher had pronounced impossible to be played. Mozart, as many are aware, was endowed with an extremely long nose – prodigious nose, which in modern dialect, “stuck out about a foot.” Reaching the difficult passage, he stretched both hands to the extreme end of the piano, and leaning forward, bobbed his nose against the middle key, which “nobody could play!” Haydn burst into an immoderate fit of laughter and, after acknowledging the “corn,” declared that nature had endowed Mozart with a capacity for music which he had never before discovered.

Moishe the Carpenter, returning home with his week's wages, was accosted by an armed robber on a deserted street.

"Take my money," said Moishe, "but do me a favour", Shoot a bullet through my hat otherwise my wife

The robber obliged. He threw Moishe's hat into the air and put a bullet through it.

"Let's make it look as if I ran into a gang of robbers," said Moishe, "otherwise my wife will call me a coward! Please shoot a number of holes through my coat."

So the robber shot a number of holes through the carpenter's coat. "And now…" continued Moishe.

"Sorry," interrupted the robber. "No more holes. I'm out of bullets."

"That's all I wanted to know!" said Moishe. "Now hand me back my money and some more for the hat and coat that you've ruined or I'll beat you black and blue!"(lmao)

The robber threw down the money and ran away.

Essence of Trust - A Moral Story

2013-02-17T00:23:00.000-08:00

A Little girl and her father were crossing a bridge.
The father was kind of scared so he asked his little daughter,
"Sweetheart, please hold my hand so that you don't fall into the river."

The little girl said, "No, Dad. You hold my hand."

"What's the difference?'"asked the puzzled father.
"There's a big difference," replied the little girl. 'If I hold your hand and something happens to me, chances are that I may let your hand go but if you hold my hand, I know for sure that no matter what happens, you will never let my hand go.' ♥

In any relationship, the essence of trust is not in its bind, but in its bond. So hold the hand of the person you love rather than expecting them to hold yours.

"FREAKY PENIS SNAKE'

A group of engineers building a dam in the Amazon recently discovered an Atretochoana eiseltiis, better known as a caecilian, which some people might know as a limbless amphibian.

But let's be honest, the creature pictured above is a penis snake. The strange creature was discovered while the Madeira River was being drained as part of a damn building project in Brazil's Madeira River.

Biologist Julian Tupan said that six penis snakes were found at the bottom of the river.

Area of the Parallelogram

2012-10-26T02:44:00.001-07:00

If p and q be any two unit vectors ... And (p+2q) and (q+2p) are the diagonals of a parallelogram ...the angle between p and q is 30 degrees, then AREA of Parallelogram is?

The desired area is = |(p+2q)x(q+2p)| /2

= |pxq+2pxp+2qxq+ 4qxp|/2
= |pxq+0+0-4pxq|/ 2
= (3/2)|pxq|
= (3/ 2)|p||q|*sin(30)
= (3/2)*1*1*(1/2)
= 3/4.
