[Daily Brain Teaser] Dream Riddle Solution - 30 September

Dream Riddle Solution - 30 September

Two brothers were watching a horror film on video late one night. One brother dozed off and dreamed that he was being chased by the crazy man from the movie, who was trying to kill him. In the dream, he hid in a cupboard. There was no sound except his heart pounding, and he had no idea where his crazed captor was. He was terrified! At that moment, the video finished, and his brother put his hand on the shoulder of his sleeping sibling to wake him. The shock at that tense moment was enough that the sleeping brother suffered a massive heart attack and died instantly. True or false?

[ChineseSkiClub] Re: Alaska Cruise

Q&A:

Q - Can we see Aurora at the end of August at Fairbank?
The "Northern Lights", at their most dazzling from December to March
when nights are longest and the sky darkest, can usually be seen even
as far south as Juneau.
But it is very cold during those months.

A - Yes, I agree with you that the best time to see Aurora is mid
winter, while there will be nothing else to visit/see and nothing else
to do at that time. Why is this trip so special? It combines in one
trip everything that you can do and you want to do in Alaska. If you
go there in June and July, you won't be able to see aurora. If yo go
there in a full moon night, you won't see aurora. I have checked the
moon phase schedule and found the best shot is the time of this tour!
I even called some Alasaka's tour companies and confirmed that we
would have a great opportunity to see the aurora because of the total
days that we cover there. One more important thing is that next year
is the best year (11-year cycle) to see aurora.

[ChineseSkiClub] Re: Alaska Cruise

Plan update:

The trip will consist of:
1. Pre-cruise tour - Vancouver 1 night.
2. Cruise - At sea focusing on glacier seeing for 7 nights.
3. Post-cruise tour - Anchorage 1 night.
4. Post-cruise tour - Glass-domed train to Denali National Park and
tours, for 2 nights.
5. Post-cruise tour - Glass-domed train to Fairbanks for aurora
(northern light) seeing and tours, for 2 nights.

You don't have to take the whole trip, for the pre-/post-cruise tours
are optional. We will have a great opportunity to see northern light
in this trip along the way or in Fairbanks because:
http://wikitravel.org/en/Northern_Lights
According to WikiTravel, 2013 will be the year having the maximum
solar activity in its 11-year cycle. IMHO, if you miss it, your next
best opportunity will be another 11 years.

[ChineseSkiClub] Re: Alaska Cruise

800 including tips (I think) but not airfare. it was a triple room though. I think it was pretty mild, low to mid 10s. There is one tirp from Vancouver, so if you want to visit around, that could be your starting point at the end of the pre cruise trip. it is a nice city. I am not sure about Denali.

Thanks for sharing the information! $800 all inclusive is a very good
price for 7-day cruise. Did it also include the gratuity (service
charge)? I'll need to take a look the NCL website. BTW, is the
temperature in May there still cold or mild?

I am wondering if I want to take pre-cruise trip to Victoria in
Vancouver and post-cruise trip to Denali. If I skip Victoria, I can
still visit there next time when I ski Whistler. However, I don't
know if I will go back to Alaska again if I miss out Denali.

[ChineseSkiClub] Re: Ski Chalet Annual Sale (09/28-30)

胖海綿 - Yes, as it is stated in the "About This Group" section, "Most of
our members are from VA/MD/DC area". We have very short snow
season ... not as lucky as you who can ski 6 months a year in Canada.

I did my trip this year with NCL Jewel in May. I think they do weekly trip from Seattle. As it was the early season, the fare was cheap, 800 all inclusive. the ship leaves dock at 4p so you can fly in early morning. on the way back it docks at around 9 or 10, so if your flight is 12 you should be able to make it but booking at 2p will be plenty of time.

[Daily Brain Teaser] Maths Time Puzzle - 17 September

Maths Time Puzzle - 17 September

A large water tank has two inlet pipes (a large one and a small one) and one outlet pipe. It takes 3 hours to fill the tank with the large inlet pipe. On the other hand, it takes 6 hours to fill the tank with the small inlet pipe. The outlet pipe allows the full tank to be emptied in 9 hours.

What fraction of the tank (initially empty) will be filled in 0.64 hours if all three pipes are in operation? Give your answer to two decimal places (e.g., 0.25, 0.5, or 0.75).
