	The Rubiks Cube Solution
		After spending hours and days twisting and turning the vaunted cube in vain, many resorted to removing and replacing the multi-colored facelets of the cube in a dastardly attempt to cheat the seemingly infallible logic of the cube, while others simply tossed it to the side and dubbed it impossible.
		The Rubik's cube, it seemed, had defeated all.
		On our cube, we would need the bottom of the Red T cubie to be either Yellow (which when moved to the right would match up with the Red and Yellow centers) or the Red-White cubie (which on our cube could be moved left, matching up with the Red and White centers).

	Rubik's Cube (Rubix cube, Rubick's cube) - history, solution and where to buy one
		The Rubik's cube is one of the most puzzling toys of all time.
		Cheap imitations of Rubik's cube flooded the market and with the 'original' cube in short supply, pirates were having a field day.
		Pirated cubes appeared in all shapes and sizes - from just one centimetre across and hanging off a chain (there was also a legal version of this too), to cylinders and shaved corners to give the appearance of 16 sides.

	Solving the Rubik's Cube
		These instructions can be used to solve a 3x3x3 Rubik's Cube and also a 2x2x2 Rubik's mini cube starting from any combination of colors on a mixed up cube.
		Orient the cube as shown in Figure 2 where the two corner pieces in the correct position are at the front-top corners of the cube and the two corner pieces in the incorrect position are at the front-bottom corners of the cube.
		Position the cube as shown in Figure 14, placing the correctly positioned (not necessarily oriented) center-edge piece to the back of the cube so that it cannot be seen.

	JP Brown's Serious LEGO - CubeSolver
		To achieve a cube solution, you must be able to rotate the whole cube by 90° in two orthogonal axes, and be able to turn a face by 90° relative to the rest of the cube.
		The bottom gabber holds the center 'slice' of the cube when the left or right grabber is turning a single face, and also provides a 90° turn for rotating the whole cube.
		The tricky part is to re-orient the cube between moves to present the next face to be turned by the left or right grabber.

	Rubiks Cube - The Bad Fads Museum
		The cube is a six sided object which splits into three rows and three columns, each of which slide up to 360 degrees.
		Each side of the cube has a certain color but when the cubes rows and columns are twisted or rotated, these colors move to other sides.
		The object of the game was to twist and rotate the cube until it was a multicolored mess and then figure out a way to methodically return it to its original state.

	Rubiks cube - Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
		His Lordship Rubik's is in fact behind many of the disastrous political events in recent years, though, being a master of disguise, nobody has ever noticed.
		Worried that his rule may be taken from him by some larger country that needs room for one more bathtub, Rubiks cloned himself many times over and sent these clones out into the world, where there was soon seldom a house to be found in which one of these clones had not infiltrated.
		But the most impressive Rubiks story involved a North Korean who claims to be able to solve a Rubiks cube before he hits 40, this was quite an achievement bearing in mind that North Korea only discovered the Rubiks cube some time last year.

		This cube was bad right out of the package, and within three days of moderate use, the clear color stickers started peeling off the white background stickers on many of the faces.
		The challenge of Rubik's Cube is simple to explain: take the 3 X 3 X 3 cube (54 squares) of scrambled colored tiles and twist, turn, and rotate the sections until you arrive at a cube with each side having all tiles the same color.
		Rubik's Cube is nearly indestructible (I've seen very strenuous attempts fail utterly) and, for those who do master the main solution, the instruction book offers other challenges (e.g., rearrange the cube so that each side has a center square of one color and all other squares a second color).

	How to Solve the Rubik's Cube

		The current official record for solving a Rubik's Cube is 10.48 seconds, achieved in 2006 by Toby Mao.
		If you are down to the last few pieces and your cube is in a position for which there does not appear to be an appropriate move, you might want to check the list of unsolvable positions.
