Who thinks they’re good at math? Okay, you’ve decided YOU are.
Yes, when we follow the directions as stated below we will all arrive at 111 as our answer.
However, the challenge for you is this:
Work out how exactly everyone can end up with 111, when all of us will have different birth dates??
Your Challenge:
This year we will experience 4 unusual dates…. 1/1/11, 1/11/11, 11/1/11, 11/11/11 ….
NOW go figure this out…. take the last 2 digits of the year you were born plus the age you will be this year and it WILL BE EQUAL TO 111….. go ahead…do the math.
Are you still up for the challenge??
This suicide will set a precedent in Internet and/or technology use law for some time to come. The young man that killed himself, allegedly jumped from the George Washington bridge because a night he had with another young man was streamed on the Internet thanks to a webcam his roommate set up.
According to the NY Times, the Rutgers freshman, Tyler Clementi, 18, left a note on his Facebook page the day he committed suicide saying, “Jumping off the gw bridge sorry.” His page has been kept up as a memorial. The incident even occurred just as Rutgers was launching their “Project Civility” campaign, replete with workshops and other events.
The roommate, Dharun Ravi, 18, of Plainsboro, N.J., and his accomplice who is also a student at Rutgers, Molly Wei, 18, of Princeton Junction, N.J., have been charged with two counts of invasion of privacy for using “the camera to view and transmit a live image. ” The maximum sentence for this crime is five years. Ravi was charged with two additional counts of invasion of privacy because this was the second live feed he tried. The other was the day before Clementi jumped, Sept. 21.
What do you think? Should the law be amended to increase the time for those who have been internet bullying, and using their camera pics and other devices for bad? This man’s family was embarrassed along with the memory of him. If he was gay, he wasn’t out of the closet and this is how he will be remembered. Can you think of something more awful? The memory of him has been tarnished forever…long after his death.
The entire senior class at Chicago’s only public all-male, all-African-American high school has been accepted to four-year colleges. At last count, the 107 seniors had earned spots at 72 schools across the nation. Mayor Richard Daley and Chicago Public Schools chief Ron Huberman surprised students at an all-school assembly at Urban Prep Academy for Young Men in Englewood this morning to congratulate them. It’s the first graduating class at Urban Prep since it opened its doors in 2006. Huberman applauded the seniors for making CPS shine. “All of you in the senior class have shown that what matters is perseverance, what matters is focus, what matters is having a dream and following that dream,” Huberman said. The school enforces a strict uniform of black blazers, khaki pants and red ties — with one exception. After a student receives the news he was accepted into college, he swaps his red tie for a red and gold one at an assembly.

BUSINESS - PART I
Ponzi Scheme, banks here and across europe. The biggest Ponzi Scheme is our very own Federal Reserve, the biggest pimp of them all. This even was brought together to assist the sovereign States, and U.S. with money advantages. Like a short-term loan. Instead it turned into which USA is so good at, power, ego, greed. Now they tell us citizens what we can buy and how to spend it. Wake up folks. Madoff tried to tell the truth, after he got caught (to a certain degree). Federal Reserve contractor is the Illuminati, or updated SCAN or Element 15. Federal Reserve is run by the billionaires not millionaires. Same as the Vatican ok – one is religious, and one isn’t. Private hierarchy run to control the masses.
************************************************************************************************************
I.R.S. is another illegal organization. There are folks living here in the USA and do not pay federal taxes – WHY? Because they know the sovereign laws of this nation. It may take several times in court to win the battle, but you will win, because the IRS is an illegal organization. USA government does NOT want their citizens to know which causes you to jump thru hoops, but worth it in the end if you can sustain. Never pay Federal Income Tax again, no matter how much you work or work less.
*************************************************************************************************************
In less than 10 years the Federal Reserve will no longer exist, which is a good thing. Run by the rich and famous. Was set up by the millionaires, then billionaires.

The unemployment rate is more like 22% across the nation, not that B.S. 8.2% they are trying to get the public to believe and digest “really”? Why is this so high, glad you asked. a. Military – returning from Iraq, and Afghanistan. b. College Grads 2011 looking for employment. c. Citizens no longer eligible for unemployment, and it’s only going to get worse than better folks.
****************************************************************************************************************
This year we will feel a great depression. Unless we go to war with Iran to build our economy back up. Damn shame we must go into a depression, mentally, spiritually, and physically to turn this nation around. Thank you Congress for working with the President to make our nation better. Recession is just a thing of the past, we have surpass the ideology a long time ago.
***********************************************************************************************************
Sorry it sounds so gloom and doom, but these are things I’m seeing right now for the future. Hope the citizens of our nation rise up and see what is going on around them. Question your Senators, and Representatives what are they doing to insure a future we can live in harmony.
ALSO: Look for the BANKS TO HAVE ANOTHER HOLIDAY! Hope you have a safe at home to put some money away. Because access to what you have in the bank will be very limited, to what you can take out during the “holiday”.
