The Four Travelers
In Roissy, four travelers, Albert, Henri, Charles and Nicholas, meet eachother.
One of them is going to New York, another to Manila, a third to London and the
fourth to Karachi.
We know that:
1. The one who us going to New York likes to windsurf;
2. The auctioneer likes motorcycles;
3. Henri is a lawyer and is going to Karachi;
4. Charles is going to Manila;
5. The dentist is going to London;
Figure out:
a) Which one is a journalist?
b) Who practices spelunking?

The Birds of Paris
There's a rue des Oiseaux [Bird Street] in the third arrondissement,
there's also a rue des Alouettes [Alouette Street] known by all from TV, a rue
de Colombe [Dove Street] (fourth); on the contrary, there's no rue Vanneau
(Lapwing Street), but there is a rue Vaneu, nor is there a cite des Flamants
(flamingos), but there is a cite des Flamands (Flemish), nor is there a rue
Petrel (Petrel Street), but a rue Petrelle.
Besides these names, can you find FIFTEEN streets which also have bird
names?
