Wet, Moist, Damp, Dry

An often used term in airplane operation terminology is wet lease and dry lease. And off shoots of this terms are damp lease and moist lease - workings of an idle mind I guess.

Simply put wet lease involves leasing of a plane along with its crew and dry lease is lasing a plane without the crew.

Quiz @ Business Balls

Got this link when I was searching for something :-)

http://www.businessballs.com/quizballs/quizballs_free_trivia_quiz_questions_answers.htm

Some questions are excellent while others are very common. A mixed bag, as we call it.
An American link so many questions would not be relevant from our quizzing point of view.

On the BSE .....


In case there is a 10 per cent movement of the indices, trading is halted for an hour if the movement is before 1 pm. In case the movement takes place at or after 1 pm but before 2.30 pm, trading is stopped for half-an-hour. If the movement takes place at or after 2.30 pm, there will be no trading halt at the 10 per cent level and the market will continue trading.
