Alice, Bob, and Charlie were on a hike and were wondering how far away the nearest town was. When Alice said, "We are at least 6 miles away," Bob replied, "We are at most 5 miles away." Charlie then remarked, "Actually the nearest town is at most 4 miles away." It turned out that none of the three statements were true. Let $d$ be the distance in miles to the nearest town. Which of the following intervals is the set of all possible values of $d$? $\textbf{(A) } (0,4) \qquad \textbf{(B) } (4,5) \qquad \textbf{(C) } (4,6) \qquad \textbf{(D) } (5,6) \qquad \textbf{(E) } (5,\infty) $

With six rods a piece like the one in the figure is constructed. The three outer rods are equal to each other. The three inner rods are equal to each other. You want to paint each rod a single color so that at each joining point, the three arriving rods have a different color. The rods can only be painted blue, white, red or green. In how many ways can the piece be painted? [img]https://cdn.artofproblemsolving.com/attachments/1/1/91e6b388498613486477ab6b51735055e920cc.gif[/img]

Let $ABCD$ be a tetrahedron whose six side lengths are all integers, and let $N$ denote the sum of these side lengths. There exists a point $P$ inside $ABCD$ such that the feet from $P$ onto the faces of the tetrahedron are the orthocenter of $\triangle ABC$, centroid of $\triangle BCD$, circumcenter of $\triangle CDA$, and orthocenter of $\triangle DAB$. If $CD = 3$ and $N < 100{,}000$, determine the maximum possible value of $N$. [i]Proposed by Sammy Luo and Evan Chen[/i]
