Every time when I look at the clock, I always see the time that ends with 1?
Every time when I look at the clock (any clock – Even in different time zone) I always see the time that ends with 1 For Example: 12:01, 11:11, 1:11,10:21, 9:21, 8:41, 6:51 and so on. This is a recent thing – started to happen within the last few months. I am a very skeptical person so at first, I brushed it off as a simple co-incident, until it has started to become very obvious. Most recently it happens pretty much every-single-time.
I even conducted a test in a controlled environment where I deliberately chose not to look at any clock for over an 8 hour period and then just randomly picked my cell phone to check the time and gosh darn, there it was -- 8:21! Totally freakd me out! It happens so random that at times when asked by strangers -- the time is again ending with the number 1. How crazy is that?
Can someone kindly explain the followings?
1. Why this is happening?
2. Does this mean something, or simply co-incidental garbage?
3. If co-incidents – Why now?

1 AnswerMathematics1 decade agoDJIA - Why everyone is so worried?
Why the entire world is so worried about Dow Jones Industrial average being down by X% points? If I understand correctly -- DJIA represents only 30 major companies, which brings me to these following questions:
1. How does these 30 Major Companies reflects the entire U.S Economy? Please explain briefly
2. Why don't SEC comes up entire new Average system that consist of Dow Jones, Nasdaq & S&P500 and use that system as benchmark for U.S Economy as general, don't you think this would better represent the overall standing of US Economy in any given day?
Please explain your answers briefly. Thanks!

7 AnswersCelebrities1 decade agoI solved the following two Algebra problems (with proof) but everyone seems to think its Incorrect. Is it?
PROBLEM # A: 1 = -2-(4-W)
W = -2-1-(4)
W = -2-1-4
W = -7
This is how I proved it:
1 = -2-(4-7)
1 = -2-(-3)
1 = -2+3
1 = 1
Here is the next one
PROBLEM B: 4-(1+X) = 5
4-1-X = 5
-X = 5-4+1
-X = 1+1
-X = 2
X = -2
This is how I proved it:
4-{(1+(-2)} = 5
4 - (1-2) = 5
4 - (-1) = 5
4 + 1 = 5
5 = 5
Please answer in following manner :
PROBLEM # A: Correct or Incorrect and Why?
PROBLEM # B: Correct or Incorrect and Why?
Also has anyone ever solved an Algebra problem quite this way?
(No Assumption Please!!!) Thanks for your time.

18 AnswersHunting1 decade agoWhat are the significance of the followings? Are these sheer coincedence? Or Are there something to the #11?
New York City has 11 letters
Afghanistan has 11 letters.
Ramsin Yuseb has 11 letters. (The terrorist who threatened to destroy the Twin Towers in 1993)
George W Bush has 11 letters.
New York is the 11th state.
The first plane crashing against the Twin Towers was flight number 11.
Flight 11 was carrying 92 passengers. (9 + 2 = 11)
Flight 77 which also hit Twin Towers, was carrying 65 passengers. (6+5 = 11)
The tragedy was on September 11, or 9/11 as it is now known. (9 + 1 + 1 = 11)
The total number of victims inside all the hi-jacked planes was 254. (2 + 5 + 4 = 11).
September 11 is day number 254 of the calendar year. Again (2 + 5 + 4 = 11).
The tragedy of Madrid happened 911 days after the Twin Towers incident.
Open Microsoft Word and do the following:
Type in CAPITALS Q33 NY. This is the flight number of the first plane to hit one of the Twin Towers.
Highlight the Q33 NY.
Change the font size to 48 or bigger.
Change the actual font to the WINGDINGS
