Mysterious Patern In English Countryside Solved
Jun 19, 2008 Around the Word, Fun
It was solved by a certain “retired astrophysicist” from North Carolina. He managed to figure it out that the patern was an abstract representation of pi (3.141592654), the number at the center of Euclidean geometry. He explained that:
Take the pattern and draw radial lines from the center of the central depression through each radial jump,” Reed e-mailed the Earthfiles.com Web site. “Take the smallest angle sector and call it one (1), then compare the other 10 sectors contained angle to the smallest and pick the closest single digit for the ratio. They come out as 3.141592654.
And I’m totally lost. Can anyone explain this to me in layman term?

Why Bad Boys Always Get The Girls?
Jun 19, 2008 Around the Word, Fun
There is a saying in Chinese goes like this: 男人不坏， 女人不爱. It means if you are not a bad boy, girls would probably not like you.

Is This Sexual Harassment? STOMPer Asked
Jun 18, 2008 Fun, Gossips, Singapore
What does this 2 fishballs and a sausage look like?
A STOMPer has sent in this photo and asked:
STOMPer Fan said a cheeky staff at a newly open noodle stall packed her noodle in a suggestive manner, arranging the food to resemble a man’s private parts.
Said the STOMPer in her email to STOMP today (June 17):
“This morning I just bought a packet of noodles from a newly open noodle stall opposite my office.
“The staff are friendly but a little cheeky.
“They chatted with me and even asked for my name and asked whether I would come again.
“I just smiled and said ‘If your food is nice, I will surely come back’.
“When I reached the office, I was shocked to see what the noodle store guy had done to my food.
“He display the fishball and sausage in the shape of a man’s private parts.
“It’s so disgusting, how can they do this?
“I am so angry, I wanted to confront them, but my colleagues stopped me.
“They should learn how to respect women.
“Not all women is so cheap and loose as what they think.
“A bunch of pervert noodle sellers.”
For this, I do agree that Fan has a case to be angry at and feel offended because the arrangement of the fishballs and sausage does look like a dick (quite obvious right?). However, like some of the comments there said, it depends on how you see it. No, I don’t think Fan is stupid. Maybe she should disclose the location of the stall, so that some female customers can avoid it.
