This puzzle took me a few weeks to figure out, without any outside help. I'm curious whether you guys will find it relatively easy? Give it a try! ______________________________________________________________________________________ Three gods A, B, and C are called, in no particular order, True, False, and Random. True always speaks truly, False always speaks falsely, but whether Random speaks truly or falsely is a completely random matter. Your task is to determine the identities of A, B, and C by asking three yes-no questions; each question must be put to exactly one god. The gods understand English, but will answer all questions in their own language, in which the words for yes and no are da and ja, in some order. You do not know which word means which. It could be that some god gets asked more than one question (and hence that some god is not asked any question at all). What the second question is, and to which god it is put, may depend on the answer to the first question. (And of course similarly for the third question.) Whether Random speaks truly or not should be thought of as depending on the flip of a coin hidden in his brain: if the coin comes down heads, he speaks truly; if tails, falsely.

IT'S not enough that Facebook wants to know when you're stuck in the train with someone with a flatulance problem, it also wants to know your mood, what you eat, what you're listening to, reading or doing at any given moment. The social network today began testing a series of status update composers that lets people select what they're doing and how they're feeling. Users can select a number of options from a dropdown menu in the status box that includes "watching," "reading", "listening to" and "eating". You can also select your mood from the drop down as well. Presumably this move was designed to increase the amount of recordable content it can feature in Facebook Search. Up until now, Facebook has only been able to pull things into its search results from pages, groups or updates people have liked or have tagged themselves in. But say if you just typed: "I heart froyo", that would not appear in Facebook Graph Search's results. These new expressions mean that Facebook will be able to capture a whole lot more data about you, what you're doing, and what you like. The more people choose a pre-determined mood, food or action, the better Facebook can target advertising at you. The results and data gleaned from the new test will not be searchable and will not be channelled into Graph Search. At this point the new way to express yourself - which has not been given a witty name and seems only to be referred to as the god awful "new visual activity sharing status composer" - will only be rolled out to a small number of users across the US. It is unclear at this stage if or when it will ever come to Australia, or even whether it will even be rolled out officially. Facebook told Tech Crunch that it would not be pumping all of the data gleaned from the visual activity composer into its ad engine either. .................................... All info is available in facebook of you! So true!

A Review of Red Tails The movie was overall pretty cool, the plane action was nice and the sounds were right, if you have ever been next to a P-51 as it's starting up you know the deep engine and vibrations it makes. But aside from that, the movie was just pure propaganda, mixed in with sub par acting. There must be like 3 actors in the entire movie anybody has ever seen, and one of them I cant name a movie he's from. The Tuskegee airmen go on to destroy airfields with no problem from AA guns and take down ships whenever they feel like it. The German pilots(and AA gunners) seem to be retarted or something because they utterly fail to take down these under trained, under armed and under supplied Tuskegee airmen. Another part that was junk was the dogfight with the Me-262s. Even green pilots in the 262s were beating Allied aces in their conventional aircraft, yet some Tuskegee airmen just pluck them out of the sky with only one casualty of the crazy pilot "Lightning" who goes fourth to fly straight at a guy and gets 40 50. bullets to the chest before he dies. All in all I want to uphold the "Inspired by true events" so basically nothing in this movie could have been true, it just was based of the idea of black WW2 pilots.
