A spectacular promotional action by the Black Eyed Peas surprised host Oprah Winfrey!
Everything was set for the band’s Chicago show to perform the hit “I Gotta Feeling,” at the opening of the new season of the show’s show. The surprise was due to the attitude of the audience, who performed the GREATEST FLASH MOB ACTION THAT HAS NEWS UP TO TODAY!
Without Oprah’s knowledge, Will.i.am created a choreography with a group of dancers and called 800 fans for the TV show. The 800 people have learned the steps and taught for more than 20,000. Oprah did not believe what she saw and the promotional viral is likely to cause a lot of comments around the planet …

Variações

What an amazingly Portuguese movie! It’s the story of one of the greatest pop/folk Portuguese artist of the last century, António Variações!

He was a visionary, not only in music, mixing pop with fado, in a unique and original way, but with its persona, the way he lived, the way he became himself!

A must-watch to music fans and those of you wanting to know this oddly extraordinary Portuguese icon!

Oh, and congratulations to Sérgio Praia, with its iconic Variações performance!

Math is cool …

PROBLEM

A mother is 21 years older than her son. Six years from now the mother will have an age 5 times that of the child.

Question: Where is the father now? Yes, you did not read wrong … where is the Father?

Some calculations have to be done to get the answer!
Incredible as it may seem the answer is given by mathematics!

See the answer below… it’s very interesting:

Solution:

Looking Today:

The mother is now Y years old
The boy is now X years old
So with the mother 21 years older: Y = X + 21
6 years from now: (Y + 6) and (X + 6)
So with the mother 5 times older than her son: Y + 6 = 5 (X + 6)

Resolving:
Y + 6 = 5 X + 30
Y = 5X + 24
Then, replacing in the first equation = X + 21 we have:
5X + 24 = X + 21
Therefore:

-4X = 3
X = -¾

The boy is now -¾ years old, that is, – 9 months (minus nine months !!!).

The answer is logical:

If the boy is exactly nine months old, he will be born in nine months,

So:

Answer to the proposed problem:

  • The father is now “eating” the mother, while you break your head !!!

Brilliant !!!!!!!!!!!
