Alternative kind of conscription possible for JW in Korea

Clouds resemble the divided land I took with my N80 yesterday, by coincidence, laughable vision.
South Korea may provide a very different kind of national service for arms refusing, blood sacred Jehovah Witnesses, in the Herald Tribune, they said,

"This is not to recognize the right to refuse the military duty but to permit an alternative service as part of social service on the premise of public consensus,"

If it works, South Korea will be the first. I can almost see it sparks concern in other nations, like for example, Singapore. Maybe all JW would like to migrate there.

Double your pay and half your weight with mathematic

Today wikihow teaches you this self delude calculation, aim to amuse one self and have some laugh. Try it.

3a = 3b
11a = 11b
3a2 = 3ab
11ab = 11b2
3a2 - 11ab = 3ab - 11b2
3a2 - 3ab = 11ab - 11b2
3a2 - 3ab + ab - b2 = 12ab - 12b2
3a(a-b) + b(a-b) = 12b(a-b)
3a + b = 12b
3a = 11b
3b = 11b
3 = 11

How to travel in Singapore MRT with programming language

I am sure majority of local need this, for the sake of dummy I only use the structure, not the actual language.

scan(ezlink_card)

If
{
if handicap(wheelchair) or handicap(stroller) or handicap(heavystuff)
{ lift(use) }

escalator(congested)
{ if hurry use(right)
else Keep(left) }

plaform(crowded)
{ if exist yellow_line
cross(not) }

train_arrive(crowded)
{ giveway(alighting_passenger)
Enter_before(alarm_stop) }

wait(destination)
{ if destination(one_stop)
Wait(12000)
Else move(centre) }

destination(reach)
{ if cabin(crowded)
squeeze(out) or printf: “ccnbccb! skews me.”
else work(late)
iIf platform(crowded)
squeeze(out) or printf: “ccnbccb! skews me.”

goto escalator(congested)
goto lift(hadicap)
goto scan(ezlink_card)

}

Blogger limerick

The more I listen to this song, the more I want to convert it for blogger.

Some are for passion, some like gathering
Some like to hide far far away now.
Some are for passion, some like gathering
Rumors that you blog, I blog too

Some are for protest, some for pop,
Some likes kidding around with their hair.
Some are for protest, some for pop,
So you blog, I blog too.

Some are bored, some make a living,
Some cannot take others nagging.
Some are bored, some for a living,
Now you blog, I blog too.

Some want everything but neglect their dignity.
Some kept their pride but dropped everything.
Some want everything but neglect their dignity.
At last you blog, I blog too.

Many could be friend of everybody.
Many habits came from other's excuses.
You and I, complaining, none reflecting,
Evil remembered crime, good continue to pray,
And so you blog, I blog too.

Example fits for Singapore human resource department

I cannot tell you who’s the referrer, but if you are not laughing, you are most suited as a human resource officer,

HOW TO PROPERLY PLACE NEW EMPLOYEES:
1. Put 400 bricks in a closed room.
2. Put your new hires in the room and close the door.
3. Leave them alone and come back after 6 hours.
4. Then analyze the situation:

• If they are counting the bricks, put them in the Accounting Department.
• If they are recounting them, put them in Auditing.
• If they have messed up the whole place with the bricks, put them in Engineering.
• If they are arranging the bricks in some strange order, put them in Planning.
• If they are throwing the bricks at each other, put them in Operations.
• If they are sleeping, put them in Security.
• If they have broken the bricks into pieces, put them in Information Technology.
• If they are sitting idle, put them in Human Resources.
• If they say they have tried different combinations, they are looking for more, yet not a brick has been moved, put them in Sales.
• If they have already left for the day, put them in Marketing.
• If they are staring out of the window, put them in Strategic Planning.
• If they are talking to each other, and not a single brick has been moved, congratulate them and put them in Top Management.
• Finally, if they have surrounded themselves with bricks in such a way that they can neither be seen nor heard from, put them as your Government.

Play Thailand parking culture like board game Rush Hour

This is good laugh of the day for me. I met a friend at Mac who shared his driving experiences in the land of Buddhism with me. Locals parked their vehicle in neutral gear without any kind of break on, so it can be easily push away when necessary. Probably every kid there knows the game, everyday brain work, intriguing! (Link) via Panoramio, also got the photo from there.

He also told me Hongkonger needs to buy a parking before they own a house, or else life would be miserable difficult, thanks, J from North.
