Pablo solving the BrainBall
This is a very difficult puzzle. It looks a bit like the planet Saturn, a ball with a ring around it. The ring consists of 13 numbered pieces, which are white on one side and yellow on the other. This ring can be rotated around the ball. There are two round caps which lie on opposite sides of the ball and which are bisected by the ring of pieces. One cap is 4 pieces wide, the other only 3. These two caps can rotate, which reorders the pieces of the ring. The caps are not independent, they can only rotate simultaneously. The aim is of course to restore the pieces to numerical order with a single colour on each side.
The US patent was filed on 4 February 1997 by Andreas Unsicker, and finally granted on 21 Dec 1999, US 6,003,868.
The number of positions:
There are 13 pieces, with 2 orientations each, giving a maximum of 13! 213 positions. This limit is not reached because:
The total number of flips and swaps of pieces is even (2)
Rotation of the ring relative to the ball is not considered different (13)
This leaves 12!·212 = 1,961,990,553,600 or 1.9·1012 positions.

Enya - May It Be
Song : May It Be
Artist : Enya
Movie : The Lord Of The Rings
-----------------------------------
May it be an evening star
Shines down upon you
May it be when darkness falls
Your heart will be true
You walk a lonely road
Oh! How far you are from home
Mornie utúlië (Darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantië (Darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now
May it be the shadow's call
Will fly away
May it be you journey on
To light the day
When the night is overcome
You may rise to find the sun
Mornie utúlië
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantië
A promise lives within you now
A promise lives within you now

~I didn't throw in Natalie Portman's Anne Boleyn because I felt her portrayal just wouldn't have matched the fun in the song, so I used Marie Antoniette instead, although I know she was not so much chasing after anyone.~

John Williams- ET Theme song on piano
Well I was told that my other video of this song was a fake by 2 funny individuals..HAHAHAHAHAH well here it is close up for yall! Ok and all the fast note runs u here going up and down the keys are not in the music..i just add them in. In fact I add a lot of things that aren't in the music..otherwise it would be kinda boring (at least for me). Also, I don't know why I pointed at the camera near the end..i guess i was really in the moment but i feel like a complete douchebag after watching this lol. ENJOY YO!
oh and if yall thought this was good..yall should check out my version of Close Encounters of the 3rd kind theme..i believe that is john williams's greatest piece of music he ever wrote for a movie and I am transcribing and doing it all (its 7 minutes long) by ear now and hope to have it done by the end of the year!!

James Morrison - Nothing Ever Hurt Like You [Official Musicvideo] (HQ) with Lyrics
Copyright owner: Polydor
Lyrics:
1, 2, 3, 4
Oh, yeah yeah yeah
Heeeey
Loving you was easy
Playing by the rules
But you said love tastes so much better when it's cruel
To you everything was just a game
And oh yeah you played me good
But I want you, I want you, I want you so much more than I should
Yes I do
I got my hands out to take your aim
Yeah I'm ready
There's nothing now, we can't go through
Oh and hit me like a steel freight train
When you left me
And nothing ever hurt like you
Nothing never hurt like you
I was naïve and wide-eyed
But you made me see
That you don't get to taste the honey without the sting of the bee
No you don't
Oh yes you stung me good
Oh yeah you dug in deep
But I take it, I take it, I take it till I'm down on my knees, on my knees
I got my hands up to take your aim
Yeah I'm ready
There aint nothing that I won't do
Walk a thousand miles on broken glass
It won't stop me
From make my way back to you
It's not real until
You feel the pain
And nothing ever hurt like you
Nothing ever hurt like you
Oh nothing hurt like you
You got to believe me
Oh everything was just a game
Yes you played me good
But I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you
Oh I got my hands up to take your ring
Yes I'm ready
There aint nothing that we can't go through
Oh and hit me like a hurricane
When you left me
But I'd do it all again for you
I'd would walk a thousand miles on broken glass
It won't stop me
From making my way back to you
It's not real until
You feel the pain
And nothing ever hurt like you
Nothing ever hurt like you
Nothing in the whole wide world
Nothing nothing nothing ever hurt like you
Not you, like you
Not like you
Ever hurt like you, you you
Na na na, du du du
Nothing ever hurt like you

Kum Kum 20-11-08 Part 3 (Star Utsav) by Sarir
'Kumkum - Pyara Sa Bandhan' deals with a nice healthy relationship between a husband (Sumit Wadhwa - Hussain Kuwajerwala) and wife (Kumkum Wadhwa - Juhi Parmar); the highs and lows of familial bonds, the changes that relationships undergo and how they affect and alter equations in the family. The kumkum is an auspicious symbol. When a girl or a married woman visits a house, it is a sign of respect (in case of an elderly lady) or blessings (in case of a young girl) to offer kumkum to them when they leave. However, it is not offered to widows. When visiting a Hindu temple, married women from southern India usually dip their ring finger in yellow turmeric powder, and apply a dot on their neck. Men, women, girls, and boys apply a dot on their forehead of red turmuric powder, also when visiting a temple or during a pooja. In most of India, everyday, married women apply red kumkum in front of their parting on their forehead as a symbol of marriage. This is called vermilion, or in Hindi, sindoor. Kumkum is also widely used for worshiping the Hindu goddesses, especially Shakti and Lakshmi by msarirkhan@yahoo.com from UAE Sharjah www.msarirkhan-ae.page.tl
