Solutions:
Read the solutions only after making a genuine attempt in solving the above puzzles.
1.This puzzle is a classic one which has no solution in 2D. However, if you place the items on a doughnut shape in 3D you can solve it. In the picture below, E is linked to 3 by going over the top and re-entering through the hole in the middle.
2.We have to be careful what we are adding together. Originally, they paid £30, they each received back £1, thus they now have only paid £27. Of this £27, £25 went to the manager for the room and £2 went to the bellboy.(This puzzle was used in a tamil film Rassaiyah for a comedy scene involving vadivel!!!)
3.25,201 eggs.
This puzzle has a few different methods for finding the solution, one of which is:
Find a number X into which all of the numbers from 2 to 10 divide evenly. You can do this by simply using 2*3*4*5*6*7*8*9*10, but you can find a smaller number by finding the prime factors, a subset of which can be used to form any number from 2 to 10. 2*2*2*3*3*5*7 will do. This comes out to be 2520, and is the lowest number into which all the numbers 2-10 divide evenly.
We can add 1 to this number to satisfy the first 9 constraints of the puzzle (the remainder of 2521/2, 2521/3 ... 2521/10 is one), but this does not satisfy the last constraint, divisibility by 11.
Fortunately, we can multiply X (=2520) by any integer and add 1 and we will still satisfy constraints 1-9. So what Y do we multiply X by so that (X*Y) + 1 is divisible by 11. 2520/11 has a remainder of 1. Thus two 2520s divided by eleven would have a remainder of 1+1 = 2, and so forth...so ten 2520s divided by 11 would have a remainder of 10. This number plus one would divide eleven evenly, as well as also satisfy the first 9 constraints - thus 25201 is the answer.

My little rose
My little rose ,
you look so happy....
You have been stolen,
From my garden.
My little rose
Yet,you look so happy!
Your thorns failed,
In saving you.
My little rose,
Yet,you look so happy!
You miss your friends,
You miss your mother,
My little rose,
Yet,you look so happy!
You are lying on my grave.
My little rose,
Is that why
you look so happy?
You look so happy....
This is my first poem.
This did not turn out as bad as I expected.

A Googlebot is a search bot used by Google. It collects documents from the web to build a searchable index for the Google search engine.
If a webmaster wishes to restrict the information on their site available to a Googlebot, or another well-behaved spider, they can do so with the appropriate directives in a robots.txt file.and by adding a metatag with meta name as Googlebot and meta content as no follow.Googlebot requests to Web servers are discernible from their user-agent string 'Googlebot'.
GOOGLEBOT
Googlebot has two versions, deepbot and freshbot. Deepbot, the deep crawler, tries to follow every link on the web and download as many pages as it can to the Google indexers. It completes this process about once a month. Freshbot crawls the web looking for fresh content. It visits websites that change frequently, according to how frequently they change. Currently Googlebot only follows HREF links and SRC links.
Googlebot discovers pages by harvesting all of the links on every page it finds. It then follows these links to other web pages. New web pages must be linked to from another known page on the web in order to be crawled and indexed.
A problem which webmasters have often noted with the Googlebot is that it takes up an enormous amount of bandwidth. This can cause websites to exceed their bandwidth limit and be taken down temporarily. This is especially troublesome for mirror sites which host many gigabytes of data. Google provides "Webmaster Tools" that allow website owners to throttle the crawl rate.

Copy scape is a cool website...
I found this accidentally in someone else's blog...
I dont remember whoz blog it was....
If someone has copied content from your website or if
you have copied conetent from someone else's website
It would display the site with that content...
It is just like search engine...
But you search the sites that have same content as yours...
I tested it with my own blog...
It showed the content which i took from another site....
RESULT OF COPYSCAPE SEARCH FOR MY BLOG
It is cool website to prevent plagiarism...But I am unable to find the principle behind it's working...
But the sad part of the tale is that you can check a website only 10 times a month for a free account.You have to have a premium account for unlimited checking.And he is charging lot of money for that.
