No.
On that note, sometimes you can get great advice from Jazz/Blues songs. Albert Collins had a song called "Don't mistake Kindness for Weakness". I'm leary of people that mistake kindness or politness, or other functional character traits for weakness. Too many administrations' behaviors follow this a little too closely for my comfort.

Rubik's cube. Very creative. When I first saw this my first thought was not of a bank but of the movie "Let the Right One in."

Some thing I found
"Although school is free across Cambodia, poor children in rural areas are often unable to attend because they cannot afford the necessary school supplies and uniforms.
For Ponheary Ly, the daughter of a schoolteacher who was killed by the brutal Khmer Rouge, helping children attend school is a mission. Ly started by helping one girl, giving her the money she needed for supplies and uniforms. Now, Ly has established her own foundation, helping thousands of children in rural Cambodia go to school. It takes only $20 a year to ensure a child gets an education."
Very cool, indeed.

"When Putin anointed Medvedev as his preferred successor in the 2008 presidential vote, Sobyanin was chosen to run his campaign. Putin then placed Sobyanin in the key position of the Cabinet chief of staff, with the title of deputy prime minister."
I think I owe Putin a beer.

Bit of detail, the former mayor wipped out roughly about 50 percent of the historical architectural triumphs in and around Moscow.
