Numbers Game

Fungus has been spreading like wildfire over the past few weeks. So I've decided to plant some other veggies to make this farm more interesting. Here are the first seeds for some tomatoes. (Although still no chlorophyll, but better than nothing)

Today's post is about numbers (boring, but interesting):


555,000,000

That's the number of mobile phone users in China. A staggering number in fact, when you consider that that is more than the entire population of the USA (3rd most populous country in the world). In fact, China make up 20% of the total mobile phone users around the world.

For comparison, India has 250 million mobile phone users. Now that's a lot of radiation in these two countries.

3.2 Billion USD

The estimated project value of Singapore's first casino and integrated resort - The Marina Bay Sands, and scheduled to open in 2009.

36492

The largest majority in the recent elections. Won by "Rocket" in Seputeh.

787 million

That's the average number of sperm in an average ejaculate.

Whoa! That's a lot of competition, man. Swim, swim, swim!

Lowest ever in the oh-so-short and uneventful history of the J-council blog.

Ok. That's all for now. Ta ta. Sayonara. An-nyung.
