Contrary to the chronology shown in a recent hit movie , event
A actually takes place after event B .
Event A takes place in the last Wednesday in August, while
Event B takes place every year from July6-14. Consequently, while going from Event B to Event A might be
possible, the reverse would not quite work.
Event A originated from a street fight near a handy grocery
store. Following several years of disagreement on whether EventA should be allowed to occur or not, and several gap years in
the middle on that account, the event has been happening
continuously since 1959.
Event B originates pursuant to a hurrying tactic by merchantsheading to the market place for sale, and the local name of the
event literally means to lock/shut up, to pen. What are Events
A and B?

The first book sold by Sachin Bansal and Binny Bansal, was JohnWoods Leaving Microsoft to Change the World, which may beconsidered strangely ironic since both Sachin and Binny had justquit working for Amazon.com to sell the book.
On August 1, 2011 the markets were a buzz with speculation thatSachin and Binny were close to raising $150million in a PE round offunding from the private equity firm General Atlantic Partners, at avaluation of $1billion.
And just as a BTW, though Sachin and Binny share the same lastname, they arent brothers.

17. Death by X is a term used as a criticism of the
overuse ofX which causes a state of boredom andfatigue induced by information overload.
It is argued that X is a convenient prop for poor
speakers, it can reduce complicated messages tosimple points and it elevates style over substance; and
that these three things contribute to its popularity.
In fact, there is an Anti X party in Switzerland
dedicated to decrease professional use ofX and othersimilar tools, which the party claims "causes national-
economic damage amounting to 2.1 billion CHF" and
lowers the quality in 95% of the cases.

20. In writing this X had been thinking of Buonaparte, but Buonaparte while he
was First Consul.
At that time X had the highest esteem for him and compared him to the
greatest consuls of ancient Rome. Not only I, but many ofXs closer friends,
saw this _______on his table, beautifully copied in manuscript, with the
word "Buonaparte" inscribed at the very top of the title-page and X at the
very bottom.
I was the first to tell him the news that Buonaparte had declared himself
Emperor, whereupon he broke into a rage and exclaimed, "So he is no more
than a common mortal! Now, too, he will tread under foot all the rights of
man, indulge only his ambition; now he will think himself superior to all men,
become a tyrant!
X went to the table, seized the top of the title-page, tore it in half and threw
it on the floor. The page had to be re-copied and it was only now that the
________ received the title "Sinfonia eroica."
