Communications between the Axis Powers has increased significantly over the last couple of weeks. Our listening stations have intercepted a lot of messages being communicated. The Beeston Hill Y Station in Norfolk and Station X in Bedfordshire have confirmed that 5 of those messages originated in Germany. Hut15 is still trying to figure out the destination of those messages. Recent events point to something big coming from the Axis Powers. Prompt actions must be taken to neutralize any such plans. We expect you to decrypt and analyze these messages before it’s too late.

Cubing Atmosphere

Maths

You know what? Researchers said that - Thousands of new cells are generated in the adult brain every day, particularly in the hippocampus, a structure involved in learning and memory. Within a couple of weeks, most of those newborn neurons will die, unless the animal(you and me :P) is challenged to learn something new. Learning—especially that involves a great deal of effort—can keep these new neurons alive. One such exercise is cube solving. It is not too easy unless you are really intelligent.So, Do you have that habit of going to the rescue of your neurons? Are you that intelligent one who can solve rubik's cube with ease and willing to prove your talent by competing with best cube solvers in India? Then come join us this October 10th and 11th as a part of our 4th National annual Techno-Management festival- ATMOS '15.
