As the investing month of October mercifully draws to a close, there is now a palpable sense of calm in the financial markets. While the horrific damage – in both value and psychological terms – is very, very real, and may take years from which to recover, there has been a healthy mindset transition to a “what is to be done” thinking, feeling and acting.

I remember last year when we went to Genting Highlands in Malaysia, we got a promotional hotel package that included a performance of a magic and acrobat show. It was a very entertaining show.

When is a speed bump not a speed bump? When it's a faux traffic calming device merely painted on the road. Philadelphia is trotting out "Drive CarePhilly," a program that simultaneously gets a raspberry for its name and its execution. The aim of the effort is to slow down speeding drivers, and one technique involves a tromp l'oeil ruse to make drivers go "What the heck is that?" and slow down. Ph

According to a cognitive scientists, humans can see into the future, glimpsing events one-tenth of a second before they occur. The mechanism behind that can also explain why people are tricked by optical illusions.
When light hits your retina, about one-tenth of a second goes by before the brain translates the signal into a visual perception of the world. Mark Changizi, of the Rensselaer Polytech

The inhuman battle between Kanda and Skinn continues to an apparent stalemate. With Skinn’s unimaginable power of lightning, he seems superior as he continuously launched attacks over Kanda. Kanda on the other hand, counters every attack but all of them are futile, until he unleashed his “Taboo Three Illusions” and charge over Skinn. However, using “Taboo Three Illusions” drains part of Kanda’s life. Suddenly, a chain materializes connecting Kanda to Skin and eventually knocks off Kanda. As the room starts to shake which signals that soon it will collapse, it turned out that Kanda waited for an opening before he unleashed his final attack. Skinn was presumed defeated, Kanda heads for the exit confident of his victory; however, as he approaches to the exit, Skinn reawakens and p

Razdray on world financial markets, rising oil prices, falling dollar, recession in the United States ... No, not all of this is determined by the current state of the global IT industry. Today it is determined by China's industrial policy. And now you are in it for yourself.To begin with, the Chinese authorities have submitted a state programme support production of microchips. They promised a discount of 15% from sales tax of any company engaged in the production of semiconductors and invested in the Chinese economy over 8 billion yuan ($ 1.14 billion). In addition, the company can claim privilege, in the production of chips using 0.25 - micron (250 nm) technological process. This criterion includes most modern producers of processors, which are now producing chips on 45 - and 65 nanomet

Most Interesting Illusions.Squares A & B are the same shade of gray. This optical illusion was created by Edward H. Adelson, Professor of Vision Science at MIT.Winner of 2 gold & 1 silver award at the 2004 Clio awards, this ad campaign used combined words to make images.So what do you make out of this one? Hint: see the shape in between the pillars.Is this window seen from above or seen from below?Are they walking on the wall?Is she wearing spectacles?Here is another great optical illusion photo of a Lufthansa 747-400 & a United Airlines 757-200 which were on simultaneous approaches to runways 28L & 28R at San Francisco.

Some companies are just unlucky at some things. They try and they try but don’t succeed. This comes to mind when Chrysler declares that it wants to expand its global reach beyond the 9% of volume now sold overseas. Well, the company, owned by private equity firm Cerberus, needs something: U.S. sales fell 3% in 2007 to drop market share to 13%, despite ballooning incentives, and it’ss killing more vehicles than it’s bringing out.
I’ve been hearing this global expansion theme from Chrysler for half a century. Chrysler bought a British carmaker named Rootes and a French carmaker named Simca in the 1960s so it could be like GM and Ford with huge international manufacturing operations. Both gone with the wind.
Did you know Chrysler was the first foreign carmaker in China
I found these during my internet surfing adventures not too long ago. I have many, but I'm only going to post these for now. I'll save the rest for when I have nothing better to post.

Lies, Illusions, Delusions and The Truth by Manoj SharmaPeople reveal their true identity most accurately, in the lies they tell behind closed doors to themselves, more so than the lies they attempt to cover up in the publics eye.There is a state of mind present in the early stages of unconsciousness of all in all human beings; a state of mind in which we conveniently lie to ourselves to, strangely, hide the truth from ourselves. Some call this a defense mechanism, a convenient pretense and/or an artful fake. Whatever the name we accord to it, the truth is it the individual ego's attempt towards self-preservation.The individual's ego, hiding in the shadows, having convinced the host that it does not exist, does this by creating an illusion than it deems more conducive to its aims.

12 Most Amazing Illusions.1. Design Interior: Optical Illusions In Reality:Here optical illusions are integrated in interior designs. Its really quite a nice idea to do this. The visitors who aren't standing in the proper angle won't have a clue about the concept. They wont be able to make out what these lines & curves on the walls are for. This way you can choose whom to share this little secret with.2. Illusions Of Faces:If you watch the above images from your seat in front of the computer, Mr. Angry is on the left, and Mrs. Calm is on the right. Get up from your seat, & move back.
