Leterial Thinking...beautiful DO READ

1. There is a man who lives on the top floor of a very tall building. Everyday he gets the elevator down to the ground floor to leave the building to go to work.Upon returning from work though, he can only travel half way up in the lift and has to walk the rest of the way unless it's raining! Why? (This is probably the best known and most celebrated of all lateral thinking puzzles. It is a true classic. Although there are many possible solutions which fit the initial conditions, only the canonical answer is truly satisfying.)

2. A man and his son are in a car accident. The father dies on the scene,but the child is rushed to the hospital. When he arrives the surgeon says,"I can't operate on this boy, he is my son! " How can this be?

3. A man is wearing black. Black shoes, socks, trousers, lumper, gloves andbalaclava. He is walking down a black street with all the street lamps off.A black car is coming towards him with its light off but somehow manages tostop in time. How did the driver see the man?

4. Why is it better to have round manhole covers than square ones? This islogical rather than lateral, but it is a good puzzle that can be solved bylateral thinking techniques. It is supposedly used by a very well-knownsoftware company as an interview question for prospective employees.

5. A man went to a party and drank some of the punch. He then left early.Everyone else at the party who drank the punch subsequently died ofpoisoning. Why did the man not die?

6. A man walks into a bar and asks the barman for a glass of water. Thebarman pulls out a gun and points it at the man. The man says 'Thank you'and walks out. (This puzzle claims to be the best of the genre. It is simple in its statement, absolutely baffling and yet with a completely satisfying solution. Most people struggle very hard to solve this one yet they like the answer when they hear it or have the satisfaction of figuring it out.)

-SOLUTIONS:-

1. The man is very, very short and can only reach halfway up the elevator buttons. However,if it is raining then he will have his umbrella with him and can press the higher buttons with it.

2. The surgeon was his mother.

3. It was day time.

4. A square manhole cover can be turned and dropped down the diagonal of the manhole. A round manhole cannot be dropped down the manhole. So for safety and practicality, all manhole covers should be round.

5. The poison in the punch came from the ice cubes. When the man Drank the punch, the ice was fully frozen. Gradually it melted, poisoning the punch.

6. The man had hiccups. The barman recognized this from his speech and drew the gun in order to give him a shock. It worked and cured the hiccups-so the man no longer needed the water.

Celebration of Rakhi Festival in India

Rakhi is a festival that celebrates the beautiful bond of love between brothers and sisters. The festival is celebrated by the tying of a rakhi – a colourful and decorated band by a sister on her brother’s wrist. It is celebrated on the full moon of the month of Shraavana and in 2007 it falls on August 28.

India is the land of festivals. Though all the festivals have their importance; Rakhi stands out as a unique gift of Indian culture. The simple threads of Rakhi symbolize the sacred love of brother and sister. When a sister ties a Rakhi on her brother’s wrist, her sentiments flow towards her brother that he should get each and every happiness. At the same time the brother thinks on the same wavelength that at in any cost he would protect the honor of his sister.

It is immaterial whether a sister or a brother is in the same village, town or city in India or USA, Canada, Australia, UK. Personally tying a Rakhi on her brother’s wrist or sending online Rakhi Gifts, always strengthens affection for her brother. The same way when a brother personally gives or send online return gifts to his sister, his unuttered vow to protect her is revealed. So Rakhi is the confluence of true and perfect feelings of siblings.

Hindu month of Shravan (August) has a number of festivals. Rakhi, falling on the full moon day, is one of the major festivals of the month. Rakhi festival is also known in different parts of India as Kajri Purnima (Kajri Navami) in North India, Nariyal Purnima (Coconut Full Moon) in Western India and Shravan Purnima in South India.

'Fake Steve' blogger exposed as Forbes editor

A blogger calling himself "Fake Steve Jobs," whose parody of the Apple Inc. chief executive amused and enthralled Silicon Valley, revealed himself on Sunday as an editor of Forbes business magazine.

Dan Lyons, a senior editor at Forbes, admitted to writing as Fake Steve after a New York Times reporter found resemblances between the blog and Lyons' published work and asked him whether he was behind the long-running satire. Lyons told the Times he had started the fake blog last year to poke fun at the lack of candidness he saw in the growing number of CEO blogs that were attracting media attention.

Forbes.com confirmed the Times' account and posted an audio interview with Lyons, who lives near Boston and who had managed to evade media sleuths for more than a year.

"I was hoping to stay anonymous for a while longer but on the other hand I knew I couldn't stay anonymous forever. It had to happen at some point," Lyons said.

"I hope that it doesn't ruin the fun of the blog that people know who's behind it.

The blog, http://fakesteve.blogspot.com, has gained a loyal readership for its frequent posts wrapping puerile put-downs and celebrity name-dropping around sharp analysis of business and technology trends.

Fake Steve, also known as "FSJ" or "El Jobso", blasts Linux fans as "freetards" and skewers leading journalists as "filthy hacks" before signing off with the Indian salutation "namaste."
Lyons used his adopted persona to poke fun at Real Steve Jobs' reputation for being a highly demanding, even arrogant, manager, offering gems such as this one:

"The MBAs say you should set high standards, let people know what's expected of them, and hold them to that. I do a little twist on that and say, hold people to an impossibly high standard, but here's the twist -- don't tell them what that standard is. And fire them if they fall short."
It has been read by leading industry figures such as Bill Gates, who joked in May when he was introduced at a conference alongside the real Jobs: "First, I want to clarify, I'm not Fake Steve Jobs." The blog has even spawned an upcoming book by Fake Steve, a satirical novel called "Options" due out in November.

There were numerous attempts to unearth the real Fake Steve Jobs. One of the most concerted came from Nick Denton, founder of blog empire Gawker Media, who turned the search into a personal crusade, poring over Fake Steve's posts for clues about the author's background. Over the past few months, suspicion turned on a succession of technology writers, each of whom denied being Fake Steve.

One recent suspect, Chicago Sun-Times and Macworld columnist Andy Ihnatko, wrote last month that Fake Steve Jobs was just the latest twist on the Silicon Valley pastime of casting the Apple co-founder as visionary inventor, New Age guru, robber baron or eccentric billionaire.

"The fun of Fake Steve's blog is in celebrating the cultural phenomenon of Bona-Fide Steve Jobs as a cartoon character," Ihnatko wrote.

As for Fake Steve, the blog will move to Forbes' Web site from Monday while Lyons takes a break for a few days. But he did have a parting, presumably joking, shot for the reporter who brought an end to his anonymity.

"You did the sleuthing. You put the pieces of the puzzle together. You went through my trash, hacked into my computer, and put listening devices in my home. Now you've ruined the mystery of Fake Steve, robbing thousands of people around the world of their sense of childlike wonder."
