My Top Engineering Blogs Award given to me by www.engineeringdegree.net!

Hey,

I am proud to receive a Top Engineering Blog Badge from the www.EngineeringDegree.net and have posted it on the bottom right of the page underneath the Feedjit. I am probably just filling myself with hot air, but I personally believe that I truly and unduly should deserve this award!
Like Seriously! Seriously! I have blogged COUNTLESS amount of times with regards to all tales of engineering. Yes I know my blog is awesome when it comes to engineering. You can scroll all the way and view past blogs to see that I've done very little else on this blog but engineering related posts.

Even the last post was all about the ingenuity and skill of the engineering of the weird puzzles, and there were others as well such the engineering needed in designing and creating the perfect shoes for futsal, and various other football related matters. There were also that one time when I blogged all about the engineering that were needed in the building the bridge at the Mengkabung River and also the ingenuity that are needed to produce a proper fishing rod and gear.

So with all that said, I firmly believe and with utmost pleasure, accept this award from this agency. I'd also like to thank the many visitors that have made it possible for me to receive such an award!

And Here it is the badge that I have received.


P.S. For those of you who either don't get sarcasm, or if you have no idea what sarcasm means and have believed every single word I have said earlier. I have done none of that, and don't recall posting even a little bit about engineering, however, the agency seriously have given me the award and don't think I deserve such a badge at all.

Of Rubik's cube and not having a life..


Hehey people!

Yeah, I know I haven't made any new posts in a while, been busy working my ass off this semester and last... XD nothing much been happening really, just me busy with coursework, and design project... So yeah, recently I've been really busy learning a new method to solve the rubiks cube, yeah, before this, I solved it quite q
uickly with the old method, but theres only so much of an improve
ment one can make with that method, anyhow, I'm attempting to learn the proper fridrich method with the two look OLL(orientation last layer) and PLL(permutation last layer).

To some I probably am talking gibberish so heres a link to what im talking about XD

http://www.blueknightcubing.com/pll.htm

Owh, and I also learnt the ortega method for the 2 by two, and i go on average around 14s, i know its slow, but compared to my old method, which i averaged around 25s... it is an improvement, and having the new v-cube helps as well!

and

Yeah, the former is a better cube cause its easier to turn... even with my 3x3 Im not even that fast anymore, with my old method i could hit sub 50s which is relatively slow, but the learning the new method i go around a minute, which is slow, but, im still slow at recognising the colours arrangements and remembering which algorithms to use, but am getting there XD its slowly converting from memory to muscle movement, but itll take time...

Also, I'd just like to point out some interesting rubiks cube that are around these days,
That apparently is a 17 x 17 x 17... Which is insanely huge, I did some more digging, and discovered that a single 1 of these would cost u $2000 USD which is an insane amount, it wouldnt be that hard to solve, though cause it does have a centre piece, and itll just be more work, but would be exactly like solving a 5x5

or a 7x7.



So yeah, it would seem like I have no life at the moment XD like seriously.... i need to do sports... but these days everyone seem to be rather busy... sigh.. Anyways, will post some clips on youtube of me solving the cube later on and will post it here XD



Peace out people~!


PS: Here it is people, the link to the youtube version is below, the youtube version will have annotations to tell you which bits are the scramble, inspection and when i actually start solving it.


PSS: Its clearer too! XD
