In 1929, while studying mathematics at Poznań University, Rejewski attended a secret cryptology course conducted by the Polish General Staff’s Cipher Bureau (Biuro Szyfrów), which he joined in September 1932. The Bureau had had no success in reading Enigma-enciphered messages and set Rejewski to work on the problem in late 1932; he deduced the machine’s secret internal wiring after only a few weeks. Rejewski and his two colleagues then developed successive techniques for the regular decryption of Enigma messages. His contributions included the cryptologic card catalog, derived using the cyclometer that he had invented, and the cryptologic bomb.

Esquire has named Pope Francis as its Best Dressed Man of 2013 for his simpler vestments, in tune with a modern simplistic design on sartorial fashion.

The procedure reveals that  you hold a doctor’s degree in subcutaneous philology. That fear of appearing to be retentive has given you a complex, even an imaginary number of neurons. All the universes in string theory don’t provide enough elbow room for the youngsters’ viruses.

Calling all alpha males. It’s the time of the month for your beta-kerosene rebarbatives.
