Finding the Combination - A Problem-Solving Game (PART 1)



PART 1


This is a  blog-based   problem-solving game that involves some thinking, but it is designed to be fairly straightforward. It is somewhat similar to popular problem-solving games.

We begin this game with you as the trusted butler of Dr. James Granite's large mansion and estate. Dr. Granite is a very wealthy businessman and landowner. And, he has many greedy enemies. It just so happened that his security was breached (broken through) and an intruder had entered his opulent (wealthy) mansion. You will need your thinking cap to help Dr. Granite solve a problem.



(Slide 1.)

- (Note 0.1.)     Dr. Granite needs your help. Someone broke into his mansion and rummaged through his things. He is away on a business trip. He asked you, his good friend, to unlock his safe and make sure all the valuables are still in it. Due to much stress, he cannot remember the combination code for his wall safe in his mansion library. But, he knows of a book on his shelf that will help you find it. After giving you its title, he abruptly ends the conversation. You find the book on the floor with part of a page missing. Then, you notice torn pieces of paper a few feet away from the book. 





(Slide 2.)
 - Note 0.2.   The order of the code numbers for each entry is based on the dictionary definitions on the other page. The contents of Dr. Granite's safe appear in the above picture. They are: an expensive watch; five gold coins; and the plans to a secret project.


- Note 0.3.   You notice a card (Card #1) lying beside the book. It appears someone used a permanent marker on the card.

- Card #1 says: 'The number __ letter "I's" in each ___________ word definition  __  __  ________ .   These _________ give a code to the wall safe in the library.'

Note 0.4.   You put the pieces together, do some simple problem-solving, and enter the four-digit code for the wall safe.   __ __ __ __.

Adventures in Odyssey and Focus on the Family Are Compromised

Adventures in Odyssey  and Focus on the Family Are Compromised An R-Rated Movie Is Subtly Promoted by Adventures in Odyssey? In the “Odyssey” cartoon video titled “ Escape from the Forbidden Matrix ,” an Arnold- Schwarzenegger-like character appears, fighting aliens. Aliens had been attacking  Dylan Taylor and Sal Martinez  in a jungle, in a virtual reality game. The Odyssey cartoon had scenes highly resembling scenes found in Schwarzenegger’s R-rated (1987) Predator movie, a Hollywood film about a group of people (headed by Schwarzenegger) who have to stop a deadly alien in a jungle.  (Information source: Wikipedia.)  The Odyssey cartoon, sadly, resembled the R-rated Hollywood film in many points. Schwarzenegger’s R-rated film showed violence, cussing, and gore. Why would a Christian children’s cartoon promote (in a slightly veiled way) an R-rated Hollywood movie?     Star Trek Is Promoted in a Christian Radio Show? Not only does Adventures in O

Peter's Three (3) Denials of Christ and Three Boastful Statements in the Gospel Accounts ________________________________ Why the Accounts in Luke, John, Matthew, and Mark Differ on What Jesus and Peter Said When Peter Proclaimed His Loyalty to Christ When Simon Peter proclaimed his loyalty to Jesus just before Jesus Christ’s unjust trial, Peter actually proclaimed his loyalty three different times. Twice, he proclaimed his loyalty to Jesus prior to Jesus and His disciples leaving to go to the Mount of Olives (in John and Luke’s Gospel accounts). After they had left to go to the mount, Peter again proclaimed his loyalty to Christ (in Matthew and Mark’s Gospel accounts). The accounts in Matthew and Mark are nearly identical and happen after Jesus and His disciples go to the Mount of Olives. And, the accounts in Luke and John take place prior to Jesus Christ and His disciples going to the Mount of Olives.  The books of Luke and John differ because they
