Will be finding out more about this fellow before buying it. It seems pretty good, vacuums and mops the floor on its own!

there is a sudden twist of events. something going right seem to be going wrong right now. although the evidences seem to be strong, I am going to give this matter a benefit of doubt until a conclusion can be arrived.

one thing that I learn from this: nothing in life is for certain (except for God's word, which is where I take comfort from during this point in time).

in the tag line of transformers, it's more than meet the eyes but I'm determined to get to the bottom of it!

meanwhile, it still does not dampen my spirit to enjoy the Olympics! Chris was watching how the badminton players were competing and he spontaneously burst out "when I grow up, I'm going to be the top seed!" let's hit the courts and start training right away! :)

On this very day, 2 pieces of good news came:

Firstly, after months of up and downs, missing the fast track by an inch and fighting to come back from the setback, I am FINALLY promoted to become an investment manager with Edgeworth Properties! (a Canadian development banking company based in Alberta, which provides 45-75% guaranteed returns within a time frame of 2-5 years. The business model even comes with an insurance policy that protects your investment from depreciation and the minimum sum is only about C$12000) Yup, I am openly doing some marketing here, not hiding about it! :P

Secondly, I was thinking of getting a new laptop recently so that I can run a certain software that I am trying out to generate a passive source of income. I was only thinking of a low end laptop that can be switched on 24/7 to assist in the task but I was given a brand NEW macbook AIR for FREE (that's right, $0!) by my bro/sis-in-laws!! (owners of the largest chain of optical stores in Singapore - Spectacle Hut: call me for discount if you want to make specs or contact lenses!) With that coming in, I will be assisting this important task to my trusty macbook and bringing along the new AIR where ever I go :)



All I can say is THANK YOU, FATHER for the abundance of GRACE (unmerited, undeserved, unearned favor) that came upon me through FAITH in YOUR SON!

Here's a suggested solution that I came up with:

1st House 2nd House 3rd House 4th House 5th House
Norwegian (1) Dane (9) Briton (5) German (10) Swede (8)
Yellow (3-4) Blue (2) Red (5) Green (5) White (5)
Water (15) Tea (9) Milk (5) Coffee (5) Beer (12)
Fish & Chips (6) Beef Steak (13) Pork Chops (11) Lamp Chops (10) Chicken (12)
Cats (13) Horses (7) Birds (11) Fish (14) Dogs (8)

Note: The number in the ( ) is the Step Number listed below.

STEPS (START WITH A EMPTY TABLE as shown above)
1. Start with Hint 9.
2. Link this to Hint 14.
3. Neither Green nor White can be the colour of the 1st house since these two coloured houses has to be together (Hint 4).
4. Since the owner of the 1st house is not a Briton (Hint 1), the colour of the 1st house must be yellow (All other colours have been taken).
5. Green house can either be the 3rd or 4th house (based on Hint 4) but since Hint 8 says that the man in the middle (3rd) house drinks milk, Green house cannot be in the middle since the owner of the Green house drinks coffee (Hint 5). Therefore, the Red house has to be in the middle, followed by the Green and White houses.
6. Use Hint 7.
7. Use Hint 11.
8. Looking at Hint 2, only the 4th or 5th house can satisfy the condition since the owners of the 1st and 3rd houses are not Swede and owner of the 2nd house rears horses. Randomly selected the owner of the 5th house to be a Swede.
9. Looking at Hint 3, the owners of the 1st, 3rd and 5th houses does not satisfy the condition since they are not Dane. The owner of the 4th house cannot be a Dane either since he drinks coffee instead of tea (Hint 5,3). Therefore, the owner of the 2nd house must be a Dane.
10. From Hint13, there is only the German left. Therefore, the owner of the 4th house must be a German who eats lamp chops.
11. Looking at Hint 6, The Norwegian and German cannot satisfy the condition since they eat other dishes. The Dane and Swede also cannot satisfy since they rear other pets. Therefore, the one who eats pork chops and rears birds is a Briton.
12. Looking at Hint 12, The Dane, Briton and German cannot satisfy the condition since they drink other beverages. The Norwegian also cannot satisfy the condition since he eats fish & chips. Therefore, the one who eats grilled chicken and drinks beer is the Swede guy.
13. From Hint 10, only the Dane guy can satisfy this condition since he is the only one without any dish. The one who lives next to him and rear cats must be the Norwegian guy since the other neighbour (Briton) rears birds.
14. From here, only the German guy is left without a pet and it must be the fish!
15. Hint 15 can be used to counter check that all the conditions are satisfied.

The GERMAN keeps FISH as a pet.

VIEW THE COMMENT FOR THE ANSWER! SOMEONE GOT IT! :)

You are given a 5L and a 3.5L bottle.

How do you obtain 3L of saltwater by only scoping twice (using any of the bottles) from the sea?

Tough, right!? :P

Thanks for the riddle, Jasmine!

The answer shall be revealed shortly...
