Clockwise or Anticlockwise?

Written by Jimmy on Dec 1st, 2007 | Filed under: Cool Stuff

Take a look at this dancer image.. click here to see the image I don’t display the image here on purpose to avoid confusion.

So, after you see the dancer, do you see her turn in clockwise or anti-clockwise direction? If you see her in clockwise, then you use your right brain more, and vice versa.

Most of us will see her in anti-clockwise direction. Try to focus to change her turn direction to clockwise from anti-clockwise (or to anti-clockwise from clockwise if you see her in clockwise in the first place).

Tips: At first, I also see her in anti-clockwise direction, then I tried very hard to change her turn direction, but it’s really hard, I couldn’t do it. Then I scrolled down my monitor so I can only see her feet and her shadow, from there, it’s easier to change her direction, scrolled up the monitor again and I have changed her turn direction! Try it! :thumb1:

By the way, I’m not lying, the dancer’s direction can really be seen in both clockwise and anti-clockwise direction!

Andy Lau is Awesome

Written by Jimmy on Nov 18th, 2007 | Filed under: Cool Stuff

Just have to say it, he is just one of the greatest Hong Kong and Asian artist.

When I first see the video, it wasn’t too clear for me what was really happening. Why would Andy jumped off the stage and hit people? I thought his fan did something bad to him and then he hit the fan. Wow.. that would be very bad, wouldn’t it? But I was wrong.

Then I read the comments on YouTube, all the comments flatter Andy. Confused, I read all the comments, most of them are in Chinese that I don’t understand, but some are in English. It turns out that he wasn’t hitting his fan, but the concert security guards.

It was Andy’s concert in China, then a fan climbed the stage to give flowers to Andy. After the fan get off the stage, those bastards security guards beat him. Maybe it was forbidden to approach the stage, but why must the fan be beaten?

Andy was angry to see his fan was beaten, he jumped off the stage and hit those bastards security guards to defend his fan! The he took the fan out of the mess. You can hear that people are cheering him.

That is very very cool of Andy Lau to do that. How he jumped of the tall stage… :thumb5:

The Amazing Of Math…

Written by Jimmy on Oct 26th, 2007 | Filed under: Cool Stuff


1 x 8 + 1 = 9
12 x 8 + 2 = 98
123 x 8 + 3 = 987
1234 x 8 + 4 = 9876
12345 x 8 + 5 = 98765
123456 x 8 + 6 = 987654
1234567 x 8 + 7 = 9876543
12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432
123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321

1 x 9 + 2 = 11
12 x 9 + 3 = 111
123 x 9 + 4 = 1111
1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111
12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111
123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111
1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111
12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111
123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111

9 x 9 + 7 = 88
98 x 9 + 6 = 888
987 x 9 + 5 = 8888
9876 x 9 + 4 = 88888
98765 x 9 + 3 = 888888
987654 x 9 + 2 = 8888888
9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888
98765432 x 9 + 0 = 888888888

Brilliant, isn’t it?

And look at thi s symmetry:

1 x 1 = 1
11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234321
11111 x 11111 = 123454321
111111 x 111111 = 12345654321
1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321
11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321
111111111 x 111111111=123456789 87654321

Now, take a look at this…

101%

From a strictly mathematical viewpoint:
What Equals 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?
Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?
We have all been in situations where someone wants you to GIVE OVER 100%.
How about ACHIEVING 101%?

What equals 100% in life?
Here’s a little mathematical formula that might help answer these questions:

If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

Is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

If:
H-A-R-D-W-O- R- K
8+1+18+4+23+ 15+18+11 = 98%

And:
K-N-O-W-L-E- D-G-E
11+14+15+23+ 12+5+4+7+ 5 = 96%

But:
A-T-T-I-T-U- D-E
1+20+20+9+20+ 21+4+5 = 100%

THEN, look how far the love of God will take you:

L-O-V-E-O-F- G-O-D
12+15+22+5+15+ 6+7+15+4 = 101%

Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that:
While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, It’s the Love of God that will put you over the top!
