Another Day In Paradise!

So now that I'm back in action, question is what should I write about. Now to help me out of this dilemma, someone suggested "exploits with fairer sex cud be a good start" ... Aah! Now thats one topic I like a lot, and why shouldn't I?;) .. But you'll have to wait a li'l for more on that. Right now am in the mood of telling you about my today's exploit.

Hmm.. On the whole today was one of the better days.. Vamsi got a job, Chhotuu nearly has finalised our plans of bike ride to Lonavala, I took 3 wickets and gave 6 runs in 3 overs, we won the match with 2 wickets and 3 balls in hand making 56 runs in 6 over:) !! The lopside is that today I got my midsem marks, but then even moon has scars. This li'l hitch of the day is forgiven.

Today I did a little something more. Actually it started yesterday when Ghazaa, Vardan and I were discussing about cryptography. I told them about a story I had read long back, called "The Gold Bug" written by the great American writer and poet Edgar Allan Poe. Vardan and Ghazaa cracked the replacement cipher in the story and thus started our tryst with solving such ciphers. Today Ghazaa told me that there is an excellent cryptic code in Sir Arthur Conan Doyles "The Adventure of Dancing Men". I have just started reading the story and would recommend for one and all!

Enthused by such brain racking adventures, I landed up in one of the puzzles community on orkut. There I found this lovely cryptographic puzzle. You too try it out!
The Math teacher Leandro Cardish was found dead this afternoon in his classroom. With all he had of strenght, he drew this symbol on the board, before his death.

His students this morning were:
Skye Makua
Del Katterjohn
Rachell Credo
Juan Ratio
Madalyn Pakonen
Letty Civcci
One of them is the murderer, because of his low grades.

Discover: Who killed him and what was the weapon. The symbol is the tip for both.
