Rubik's Record

I have never in my life solved the Rubiks Cube. I bought one relatively recently and it gave me a serious headache. Even with some tips and tricks, no dice. In fact, I don't think I know anyone that has solved it. And just to rub it in, a blindfolded Leyan Lo solved the cube in 11.13 seconds at the International Rubik's Cube Convention. So there.

Lo's record came at the very beginning of a long day in which dozens of "cubers" squared off in bids to become the best at one or more of a series of different categories of Rubik's Cube competitions. Among them were the standard 3x3x3, the 3x3x3 blindfolded, the 3x3x3 one-handed and the 4x4x4 (The numbers refer to the number of rows and columns the cube has).
