Interesting Logical Puzzle

This one's an interesting puzzle and DOES NOT involve any MECHANICS!

There's a Bridge 2.4 km long with a load handling capacity of exactly 1 tonne and is bound to collapse if load increases by even a single gram than a tonne.

A bus, loaded fully with passengers, of weight exactly a tonne is crossing over the bridge. At exactly 3/4th of the length of the bridge a Crow comes (out of the Blue) and sits on top of the Bus.
But to everyone's surprise, the Bridge doesn't collapse and the bus crosses it safely.

Why?

Interesting Puzzle

Time to solve a very interesting and logical puzzle

I have picked up this puzzle from IBM monthly challenge. I will give the exact link of the site later (for those who are interested)

Background: It's Thanksgiving, and time to stuff the turkey. But we've got a problem. The stuffing came in a cube measuring 12cm on a side. The hole in the turkey, however, will accommodate a rectangular block measuring 8cm by 8cm by 27cm. Due to time constraints (we can't miss the parade on TV) we only want to cut the stuffing into four pieces.

The question:
How can we cut the 12cm cube into four pieces which will reassemble into an 8cm by 8cm by 27cm block?
