111111111 x 111111111=123456789 87654321

Now, takes a look at this...
101%
From a strictly mathematical viewpoint:
What Equals 100%? What does it mean to
give MORE than 100%?
Ever wonder about those people who say
they are giving more than 100%?
We have all been in situations where
someone wants you to GIVE OVER
100%.
How about ACHIEVING 101%?
What equals 100% in life?
Here ' s a little mathematical formula
that might help answer these
questions:

If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S
T U V W X Y Z

Is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

If:
H-A-R-D-W-O- R- K
8+1+18+4+23+ 15+18+11 =98%

And:
K-N-O-W-L-E- D-G-E
11+14+15+23+ 12+5+ 4+7+5 = 96%

But:
A-T-T-I-T-U- D-E
1+20+20+9+20+ 21+4+5 = 100%

THEN, look how far the love of God
will take you:
L-O-V-E-O-F- G-O-D
12+15+22+5+15+ 6+7+15+4 = 101%

Therefore, one can conclude with
mathematical certainty that:
While Hard Work and Knowledge will get
you close, and Attitude will
get you there, It ' s the Love of God
that will put you over the top!
It ' s up to you if you share this
with your friends just
the way I did.
Have a nice day & Allah bless U!!

A £30,000 copycat Rolls-Royce? It must be made in China

With a flying lady on the bonnet, its vast classical radiator and familiar contours, it looks for all the world like a Rolls-Royce.
Hop inside, and the massage seats, pure wool carpet, subdued lighting and wine cabinet add to the impression.
But the car in question could hardly be less British. It is actually a Geely GE, made in China.
Hauntingly familiar: The Geely GE, with flying lady circled, at the Shanghai show

Although Geely claims to be ‘re-inventing the classic’, it seems Rolls-Royce bosses disagree.
They are consulting lawyers after seeing this Chinese-made car audaciously displayed just feet from the classic brand’s Phantom at the Shanghai Motor Show.
‘Our colleagues in Shanghai are taking a serious look at it,’ a spokesman said. ‘Rolls-Royce Motor Cars is very protective of its brand image and takes seriously any attempt to imitate its products.
‘Rolls-Royce is currently keeping its options open and is in consultation with its legal advisers.’

The real deal: A Rolls Royce Phantom which costs £250,000 - compared to £30,000 for the Geely GE

The grille, the Flying Lady mascot, also known as the Spirit of Ecstasy, and the Rolls-Royce name and initials are specifically protected.
With its £250,000 price-tag, the original Rolls-Royce Phantom has always been the preserve of the privileged few.
But costing just £30,000, the GE, which stands for Geely Excellence, appears to offer a ‘luxurious mobile palace’ on a much tighter budget.
For your money, you get an air purifier with separate air conditioning, described as an ‘oxygen bar’, cigar storage, a refrigerator and a ‘starlight’ interior roof lining – a signal feature of the original Phantom.

Spot the difference: The original Spirit of Ecstasy on the Rolls Royce Phantom (right) and on the Geely GE (left)
Chinese car companies have a reputation for copying foreign classics – sometimes leading to legal action.
Four years ago Shuang-Huan Auto created a lookalikeof Honda’s CR-V grass-and-gravel off-roader. So incensed were Honda that they sued Shuang-Huan, which counter-sued.
Geely already has links with British icons.
It builds taxis for London under licence.

Class act: An artist's impression shows the GE's single rear 'throne' and luxurious star effect roof (above and below)

And it is one of the companies said to be considering buying out Britain’s Vauxhall and Germany’s Opel from the ailing U.S. parent company General Motors, which is on the brink of bankruptcy.

SO WILL IT FIT IN MY GARAGE?
