This is a simple calculation that many of us might have taken forgranted.

Add your age to the year you were born.  You are likely to arrive at the number 2011 this year.  If you've tried it holla back if it is true.

lame!!

sauer:

lame!!

What is lame? Have you tried it out? and if you did what was the result?

Brilliant , isn't it?

And look at this symmetry:

1 x 1 = 1
11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234321

111111111 x 111111111=123456789 87654321

Now , take a look at this,

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 TU 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-TU-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!

Which of the two posts are you referring to, the former or the latter?

God created mathematics

The mysteries of Pi and e (the Natural log and) Euler's identity

e ^{i pi} + 1 = 0 (Euler's number or Euler's identity)

These are five constants that symbolizes the four major branches of classical mathematics, which was discovered by the devout Christian Euler.

1.  Arithmetic is represented by 1 and 0;
2.  Algebra is represented by i
3.  Geometry is represented by Pi
4.  Analysis is represented by e

It connects the five most important constants in mathematics (e, P[i]i[/i], i, 0 and 1) along with three of the most important mathematical operations (addition, multiplication and exponentiation).

e is also found in the Bible in a rather unusual way.  The Greek alphabet has a number corresponding to each letter of its alphabet.  If you take the first verse from John 1:1 in the New Testament,

in its original Greek;  "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."

and calculate:

The number of letters x the product of the letters divided by the number of words x the product of the words;

You end up with:
= 2.7183 x 10⁶⁵

e correct to 4 decimal places.

e ^{i Pi} + 1 = 0

Pi is also found in the Bible in a rather unusual way.  The Hebrew alphabet also has a number corresponding to each letter in its alphabet.

If you take the first sentence of Genesis 1:1 in its original Hebrew: "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth" =  "Beresheet bara Elohim, et ha-Shamayim et ha-Eretz." 

and calculate:

The number of letters x the product of the letters divided by the number of words x the products of the words = 3.1416 x 10¹⁷

= Pi correct to 4 decimal places.

e ^{i Pi} + 1 = 0

i was proposed in the 1600's as an imaginary number and is defined as the square root of -1.  It was proposed to help solve equations like x2+1=0
Today[i] i[/i], though originally proposed as an imaginary number to solve algebraic problems, is very useful in science and engineering for solving "real world" problems.

That Pi would be found to combine with the number e, and with the number i, to produce such elegant equation is like discovering that three broken pieces of pottery, each made in different countries, could be fitted together to make a perfect sphere.  The finding strongly argues for a overarching "Intelligent Design" to mathematics from God.

To further discover that Pi can be found in Genesis 1:1, and e can be found in John 1:1 is like finding that the potter of this "perfect sphere" of mathematics signed His name and is none other than our Lord Jesus Christ !!!  I am just left wondering if Jesus hid i, the square root of -1, in the Bible somewhere.  Maybe in John 3:16

Euler is considered among the greatest Mathematicians of all time.  He was a fervent Christian who defended the Christian faith against many notorious Atheists of his day, such as Voltaire.  Among his many accomplishments in higher mathematics, Euler also discovered the "most famous formula" in all of mathematics: 

e ^iPi + 1 = 0  This formula is called Euler's Number or Euler's Identity.

Euler's number has been called "the most famous of all formulas," because, as one textbook says, "It appeals equally to the mystics, the scientist, the philosopher and the mathematician."

This is so awesome.

Ten odd science facts - not as much fun as the mathematical facts 

1. If you could drive your car straight up you would arrive in space in just over an hour.

2. Astronauts cannot belch – there is no gravity to separate liquid from gas in their stomachs.

3. When a flea jumps, the rate of acceleration is 20 times that of the space shuttle during launch.

4. Giraffes often sleep for only 20 minutes in any 24 hours. They may sleep up to 2 hours (in spurts – not all at once), but this is rare. They never lie down.

5. Around a million, billion neutrinos from the Sun will pass through your body while you read this sentence.

6. Fingernails grow four times faster than toenails

7. Right handed people live, on average, nine years longer than left-handed people

8. If you rub an onion on your foot – within 30 – 60 minutes you will be able to taste it – this is because it travels through the blood stream

9. You can’t kill yourself by holding your breath (if you hold it until you go unconscious, you begin to breath normally as soon as you do)

10. On one square inch of human skin there are 20 million microscopic creatures

Na wa o So, it is a disadvantage to be left-handed?

Try stretching your arms out to the sides as far as you can, and you will discover that's how tall you are.

It is impossible to sneeze with your eyes open at the same time.

New earth-like planet discovered by NASA spacecraft

http://www.space.com/12915-habitable-alien-planet-hd-85512b-super-earth.html

More than 50 new alien planets — including one so-called super-Earth that could potentially support life — have been discovered by an exoplanet-hunting telescope from the European Southern Observatory (ESO).

"Happy Birthday To You" was the first song to be performed in outer space, sung by the Apollo IX astronauts on 8 March, 1969.

Splendid.

Did you get the year your were born? (Using the calculation above).
