    Well that bridge. Yes, it is the Milau Bridge built by Norman Foster. Good one Khandu. You can read the rest of the facts he has provided in the comment box.


    He began his career in his homeland with Aalesunds FK After a single season as senior player for the club, he moved abroad in 1998 and played the formative years of his professional career with French club AS Monaco. He was a regular member of the 1999-2000 Ligue 1 championship-winning Monaco side. However, the youngster fell out of favour with coach Claude Puel after admitting his desire to leave. He was subject of much interest from EPL clubs, with both Blackburn Rovers and Fulham FC trying to sign him. Leeds United were particularly keen, tabling a £4m bid in 2000, though this came to nothing as Monaco wanted £6m for him. Who?

    It is John Arne Riise - Tania, Marut and Basu get it right

    No one even attempted those two logos. Was in the news 3 days back. They are the logos of Unicredit Bank (Italy) and Capitalia Bank. They merged thus becoming the 2nd largest Bank in Europe, after of course Barclays.

    The countdown - well they are the calendar months in reverse. Anil gets it. They just describe the Roman Gods after which they are named, like Janus - two faced, March - Mars - hence war, July August - pretty obvious - Julius Augustus - uncle, nephew

    The tennis dude - James Blake - Tania, Marut and Avik all get it right

    Ok someone mistook the comment about this animal being half squirrel, half rabbit. No tricks involved and no it isnt a biproduct of an experiment held in any research lab. It is known as a chinchilla, found in the western coasts of South America. Good tries from everyone

    It was Arthur Conan Doyle - and no one googled that thankfully. Khandu, Marut, Basu and Sudarshan all cracked it. Other facts written by Basu in the comment box. Do read it.

    The music prize - it is the Polar Music Prize - good one Khandu...

    AT&T logo and Star Wars - it is the DEATH STAR - Headshot Ravan aka Khandu

    Failed projects??? or rather test versions of Microsoft which were later scrapped
