1.• The Simmons Company is a major manufacturer of particular kind of

products, based in Atlanta, Georgia. The company was founded in 1870, and is one of the oldest companies of its kind in the United States.

• According to company records, by 1891 it was the largest company "of its kind in the world". In 1958, the company became the first U.S. maker to produce its product in X and Y, an innovation that was promoted as solving the "space battle in the bedroom".

• Simmons promoted its products aggressively with ads that included testimonials from famous people such as Eleanor Roosevelt in 1927 and Henry Ford, H.G. Wells, Thomas Edison, Guglielmo Marconi and George Bernard Shaw in 1929.

• ID X and Y or give the concept.

KING AND QUEEN SIZE BEDS.

2.• Burning Man is a week-long annual event held in the Black Rock Desert in northern

Nevada, in the United States. The event is described as an experiment in community, art, radical self-expression, and radical self-reliance.

• The day was August 30, 1998 - less than a week before X would officially incorporate as a company.

• Despite and maybe because of all the chaos that would come with incorporation, the founders spent the last week of August 1998 to go to the Burning Man festival.

• To let the users know that they were out of the office, they decided to send out a message.

• This particular action was the beginning of a trend that goes on till this day and is immensely popular.

• Identify the Company and what is being talked about here?

3.• It has no single version draft, but is an amalgamation of several

drafts, and was originally called "Normalcy, Never Again". Little of this, and another "Normalcy Speech", ended up in the final draft.

• The focus on "X" comes through the speech's delivery. Toward the end of its delivery, noted gospel singer Mahalia Jackson shouted to Y from the crowd, "Tell them about the X."

• After this, Y stopped delivering his prepared speech, and started "preaching", punctuating his points with "X.“

• Identify X and Y

X= I HAVE A DREAMY= MARTIN LUTHER KING JUNIOR

4. • Philology means the love for language. X comprises the creation and use of

mnemonic techniques to remember a span of digits.X is a play on Y and the word philology.

• There are many ways to memorize Y, including the use of Z (a portmanteau, formed by combining Y and poem), which are poems that represent Y in a way such that the length of each word (in letters) represents a digit.

• Here is an example of a Y:

"How I need a drink, alcoholic in nature after the heavy lectures involving quantum mechanics."

• Give me X, Y and Z.

X=PIPHILOLOGYY=PI

Z=PIEMS

• "How I need a drink, alcoholic in nature after 3 . 1 4 1 5 9 2 6 5 the heavy lectures involving quantum mechanics."

5.

• It’s been said that X was named after something at CERN. However, Tom S. tells us:

• “Having visited CERN myself, I can tell you that X is not on the fourth floor – the CERN office numbering system doesn’t work like that – the first digit usually refers to the *building* number , and the second two to the office number.

• But, strangely, there is no X; don’t ask me why. Sorry to disappoint you all, but there is no X in CERN – it simply doesn’t exist. The whole “X″ thing is just a myth.”

ROOM 404.ERROR: PAGE NOT FOUND

• In an office on the fourth floor (room 404), they placed the World Wide Web's central database: any request for a file was routed to that office, where two or three people would manually locate the requested files and transfer them, over the network, to the person who made that request.

• When the requests increased, the manual errors started taking place and since then the error message has been the same.

6.• Originally named The Poet, the X was initially a figure in a large

commission, begun in 1880, for a doorway surround called The Gates of Hell. Y based this on The Divine Comedy of Dante, and most of the many figures in the work represented the main characters in the epic poem.

• Some critics believe X, at the centre of the composition over the doorway and at about 70 cm high larger than most other figures, was originally intended to depict Dante at The Gates of Hell, pondering his great poem. However, there are questionable aspects to this interpretation, including that the figure is naked, Dante is fully clothed throughout his poem, and that the figure, as used, in no way corresponds to Dante's effete figure.

• The sculpture is nude, as Y wanted a heroic figure in the tradition of Michelangelo, to represent intellect as well as poetry.

X= THE THINKERY= AUGUSTE RODIN

7.• The second week of September was a week of very high anticipations and

speculations. After all it was a new product category in 4 long years for a company like X.

• X has a history of creating new and innovative products that become trend-setters. While this product was not something as revolutionary since it has been around in the market for quite some time but it carries the trademark style of X.

• Now for this product, X did something unexpected. It broke its long lasting tradition and this has surprised the ignorant and the enthusiast alike.

• According to the Daily Telegraph, this was because X is deliberately targeting consumers more concerned with style than technology.

• ID X.• ID the product.• And give the change in tradition that is being talked bout.

X=APPLE

• The product was named APPLE WATCH and not I-Watch as expected according to the tradition.

8. What is being talked about?

• They're the squished-up, stretched and squiggled, colour-blotched collections. Is that an "i" or an "l"? You wonder. A zero or the letter "O"? Maybe you see three letters where it seems there should only be two. You tilt your head. You scoot your chair back and squint. You wonder if you need new glasses.

appeal to the public imagination. E.R. Milner, a historian, writer, and expert on them and their era, put the duo's enduring appeal to the public, both during the Depression and continuing on through the decades, into historical and cultural perspective.

A COMPLEX CONUNDRUM

- But an Easy Solution!- WRITTEN ROUND.

“The gyaan vala part”

• Here “M, J, N,O, E” are a part of the first collection.

• Also “H, Z, P and S ” are a part of a second collection.

• Both collections are related to each other.

“The clues vala part” • “M” probably received its name because “H“ was supposed to be swift on foot

and this quality is also represented by M in what it does.

• “J” is the biggest amongst all and aptly it was named after “Z”, since Z was considered to be the most important and the ruling member of the collection.

• “N” is blue. So it was named after “P”, considering that P has to deal with blue a lot and P also has to deal with horses.

• “O” is something that is now not a part of this collection. Before being removed, it was named after “S” who had to deal with darkness and was “far away” or “detached” from his group.

• “E”, unlike other members of its collection, is not derived from the collection 2.
