It is sometimes attributed to Albert Einstein and it is claimed that 98% of the people are incapable of solving it. Some commentators suggest that Einstein created such puzzles not to test out intelligence but to get rid of all the students who wanted him as an advisor. Let us assume that there are five houses of different colors next to each other on the same road.
Wedding Registry & Gifts | Zola Vanishing Point: How to disappear in America without a trace Where there's water, life is possible. True, it may be very difficult and very hard to live, depending, but anyone who's driven, hiked, or camped in the American South West will have noticed that cities and ranches crop up where there's surface water or where there's been a well dug. Within the state of California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, New Mexico, and Colorado, there are deserts, mesas, mountains, and forests where normally people never or rarely visit; not-so-secret places where there's water, access to a road within a day's hike, and where a fairly rugged individual may hide while remaining basically healthy, marginally well fed, and reasonably sane. In this section I'll look at two such environments, neither of which I would recommend, but one of which I'd suggest is a reasonable way to live in basic health while either on the run, hiding out from the law, old girl friends, the draft for an illegal war, putative wives and such.

Something I read about years ago almost always "short circuits" the attack: direct heat! When you're pretty sure a sore is about to appear, or you already have the first tiny blisters, try the following: - dampen a face cloth in water - put it in the microwave for about a minute (CAREFUL it'll be very very HOT) - when the cloth is just cool enough to be handled, apply a portion of the cloth to the lip where the sore is appearing. - when that section of the cloth starts to cool, use a warmer section Repeat the nuke, cool slightly and heat up the lip process 3-4 times. The key is to use at much heat as you can stand. That hasn't failed me yet. If you try this please, please remember the two cautions above: the microwaved cloth will be largely untouchable for at least a couple of minutes and be very careful touching it to your lips.
伦敦兴起“礼品代购”服务 - 荐读 “节日快乐亲爱的！这是一份神奇的个性化礼物，我花了几个小时在国外搜寻，就是为了找到你所喜欢的色彩和风格……当然，这是我的礼物代购师帮我买的。” 如今，众多的礼品代购、体验礼品公司和服务纷纷登场，都试图帮助那些现金充裕但时间紧张的人为亲朋好友购买称心的礼物。 Bokks（www.bokks.com）是伦敦新开设的一家体验型礼品公司，提供各种礼品服务，从私人飞机（埃德·多雷特提供内部设计的波音公务机，价值8500万英镑）到私密的蓝尼·克罗维兹(Lenny Kravitz)的现场表演都有，上个月，它的梅费尔(Mayfair)店开业，同时开通了一个配套的零售网站，并计划在全球各地推广这一概念。 为何会这样？ “恰恰相反！” “人们基本上习惯了挑选礼品时的烦人之处。 精英会礼品部门常务董事李·科尔曼(Lee Coleman)认为，请人帮忙购买完美的礼品并无不妥（在过去，完美的礼品包括带有个性化爆米花袋子的爆米花机器，以及表壳显示主人国别的手表）。 许多礼品代购服务的主要对象是男性——忙碌的生活使这些经理人没有时间去采选礼品。 话虽如此，但也有一些固执己见者认为，这种努力——实际上也是压力——都是表明你用心的地方。 安亚·黑因德马克(Anya Hindmarch)也是个热衷自行挑选礼品的人，她在上个月推出了以自己姓名命名的定制服务（www.anyahindmarch.com），部分原因就在于她希望能将皮具及饰品等礼品个性化。 译者/功文
MacGyver, Survivalist, or Stockpiler: The Urban Survival Skills Everyone Should Know It's your word against his.. If he ain't talkin, your word pretty much wins. Also, don't try draggin him back in your house after he's dead.. As soon as you're involved in a shooting like this, call the cops, then a lawyer.. You are so bad ass. Seriously, you're advocating shooting a potential burglar with your "Mossy, Remy or Mr. We're not all in middle school, you know, and life is not like a Die Hard movie. I don't want to kill anyone. I am not running from my house. You can be a moral coward and subject yourself to the will of a criminal, however I will suffer no such victimization. @jodark It's not cowardly to leave and certainly not morally cowardly to leave if there is an intruder in your house. Unless you were a soldier or a police officer, you have probably not faced a life or death situation, and frankly, you are likely not equipped to fight back adequately. But staying in your house just because you paid for it and everything in it?
Gratafy：通过好友的电子邮箱或手机号码赠送礼物 - TechCrunch 从今天起开始，你只需要有朋友或家人的邮箱地址或手机号码，就可以给他们赠送礼物。这一新服务来自Gratafy，这家公司位于西雅图，在去年发布了他们的社交送礼平台，让用户可以用数字化的方式分享大家都会喜欢的礼品：食品和饮料。只要光临洛杉矶和Gratafy所在的西雅图的一些餐厅和酒吧消费，就可以获得这些礼品。你可以把这项服务看作是餐厅礼券发布的新方式，而且你可以通过网络或手机进行购买，并有多种餐厅的礼券可选，而不仅限于大型连锁餐厅，例如你可以买外卖。 该服务针对的是那些需要为别人买礼物却不知该送什么的人，以及所有适合送礼品卡而不适合送礼品实物的场合（多么贴心啊）。 合作的商户都很喜欢Gratafy的这种模式，因为它让餐厅又多了一种全价菜品的营销手段，同时还能接触到潜在的新客户。 但是Gratafy使用Facebook账户登录限制了它的推广。 截至目前，该公司已经与西雅图和洛杉矶的近250家餐厅进行合作，其中包括西雅图的Tavern Law餐厅、Ethan Stowell餐厅、John Howie牛排和Tom Douglas餐厅，以及洛杉矶的Paiche餐厅、The Hudson餐厅、Sassafras餐厅等。 在送礼高峰季，例如节假日期间（从万圣节后第二天到处散落的礼物包装就能看出来），Gratafy的销售额会有大幅增长，这是由它的服务模式决定的。 一些公司利用电子邮件进行各种分享，这是一个很有趣的现象。 该初创公司目前正处于竞争激烈的大环境中，因为Facebook正致力于开发所谓的“社交送礼”，而像Wrapp这样的竞争者也获得了更多融资（Gratafy融资300万美元，而Wrapp则在今年夏天融资1500万美元）。 Gratafy将于今天发布更新，该应用已经在苹果应用商店和Google Play中上架。 原文： Gratafy Lets You Send Food & Drink Gifts To Friends Using Just Their Email Or Phone Number (techcrunch.com) «上一篇文章Pebble推出2.0版SDK，支持iOS 7应用通知推送 下一篇文章 » 11.7#TC日报#：传Twitter IPO估值147亿美元
