There are $n$ pieces on the squares of a $5 \times 9$ board, at most one on each square at any time during the game. A move in the game consists of simultaneously moving each piece to a neighboring square by side, under the restriction that a piece having been moved horizontally in the previous move must be moved vertically and vice versa. Find the greatest value of $n$ for which there exists an initial position starting at which the game can be continued until the end of the world.

Let $1,\alpha_1,\alpha_2,...,\alpha_{10}$ be the roots of the polynomial $x^{11}-1$. It is a fact that there exists a unique polynomial of the form $f(x) = x^{10}+c_9x^9+ \dots + c_1x$ such that each $c_i$ is an integer, $f(0) = f(1) = 0$, and for any $1 \leq i \leq 10$ we have $(f(\alpha_i))^2 = -11$. Find $\left|c_1+2c_2c_9+3c_3c_8+4c_4c_7+5c_5c_6\right|$.

The $ 2007\ \text{AMC}\ 12$ contests will be scored by awarding $ 6$ points for each correct response, $ 0$ points for each incorrect response, and $ 1.5$ points for each problem left unanswered. After looking over the $ 25$ problems, Sarah has decided to attempt the first $ 22$ and leave the last three unanswered. How many of the first $ 22$ problems must she solve correctly in order to score at least $ 100$ points?

Mike has $1000$ unit cubes. Each has $2$ opposite red faces, $2$ opposite blue faces and $2$ opposite white faces. Mike assembles them into a $10 \times 10 \times 10$ cube. Whenever two unit cubes meet face to face, these two faces have the same colour. Prove that an entire face of the $10 \times 10 \times 10$ cube has the same colour.
