Iwas heading out to the bus this morning with my Kindergartener when I found this nice package in the door. I illustrated this fun (and HARD!) riddle for the April 2015 issue of Spider Magazine. I'm so happy with how well it printed!

The web stretches over a large chasm, with intersecting strands coming to a single point on the other side. Moving across each strand requires a careful dash, and you must keep going until you stop at the next hub where two strands cross.
By ancient spider code, only one competitor may traverse the web at a time. You must take turns, moving from one intersection to an adjacent one. No one may spin new paths into existence or skip turns. You begin two spaces from Shelob, and to win, you must catch her by your tenth move. Can you attain the mantle of spider supremacy?

The rhyme has a happy ending because the spider was able to be resilient. Perhaps there is a lesson for us all hidden within this popular nursery rhyme. Maybe the spider was able to climb back up because it had understood the risks of where it lived and had properly prepared to ensure its recovery in the event of rain.
Flooding happens in every U.S. state and territory. Changing runoff patterns from new construction, a weather event such as a hurricane, a strong storm or large amounts of melting snow, even poorly maintained drainage systems, or a broken water main can all result in flooding.
In a recent survey conducted by the NAIC, out of the nearly 2,500 home or property owners questioned, over half of them mistakenly assume that their standard insurance policy will cover water damage in the event of a flood. But flood is not covered in a standard rental, home, or business insurance policy. Only a flood insurance policy from the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) or one bought through the private flood insurance market will cover the financial devastation of a flood.
The NAIC survey found that 75% of participants believe extreme weather events are happening more frequently due to the changing climate, and 41% see this increase impacting them with a future loss. But even with the increasing risk of flooding, the percentage of consumers signing up for flood insurance remains low.
I lifted up one of the mineral stained rocks and five spiders ran out in different directions towards the clusters of tiny black flies that I had also managed to miss, but I had my eye-in now, and it seemed as if the ground was heaving with spiders and flies. Relief spread over the team, and we began assembling our field-set that would allow us to capture these spiders on macro lenses, only inches above their hot-water home.
In 2022 we returned to Iceland to complete filming, finally capturing a hunting sequence, before returning the spiders to their normal lives, blissfully unaware of their impending stardom in the Ice and Fire episode of the series.
The spider and the fly problem is a recreational mathematics problem with an unintuitive solution, asking for a shortest path or geodesic between two points on the surface of a cuboid. It was originally posed by Henry Dudeney.
A different lateral thinking solution, beyond the stated rules of the puzzle, involves the spider attaching dragline silk to the wall to lower itself to the floor, and crawling 30 feet across it and 1 foot up the opposite wall, giving a crawl distance of 31 feet. Similarly, it can climb to the ceiling, cross it, then attach the silk to lower itself 11 feet, also a 31-foot crawl.[6]
The problem was originally posed by Henry Dudeney in the English newspaper Weekly Dispatch on 14 June 1903 and collected in The Canterbury Puzzles (1907). Martin Gardner calls it "Dudeney's best-known brain-teaser".[7]
Sure, you can brute force each by running through every possible combination on the dials nearby, but there is actually a way to solve these door puzzles properly. In this guide, I'll run you through the correct way to solve the Hogwarts Legacy door puzzles, their locations, as well as what you'll get for your efforts. Do note that there is a possibility that chest rewards are random, so you might not get exactly what I did, though it still amounts to one piece of gear and one Room of Requirement item.
In the Library Annex area of Hogwarts, there is a door puzzle leading to the Arithmancy Classroom and beside it, you'll find a note that lists the number each animal symbol represents. This is the missing piece of the puzzle that you need to open the doors and claim the loot inside. The note explaining the animal numbers is at the first door location down below if you want to solve them for yourself, but if not, I've listed each puzzle solution.
In the Library Annex area. Fast travel to the Divination Classroom Floo Flame, turn around and head into the rafters above Central Hall, then keep going along the walkway and turn right to find a door and a note that lists the number each animal represents. This info is needed to help open the other doors. The solution for this one is: left dial: weird owl, right dial: three-headed snake. The reward is a unicorn statue and the door leads into the Arithmancy Classroom.
Again, in the Library Annex area, head through the first door puzzle to find the Arithmancy Classroom and two more doors. For the first door on the left the solution is: left dial: weird owl, right dial: spider with a face. This contains bushes for the Room of Requirement and an embroidered formal uniform.
In the Library Annex area. Fast travel to the Potions Classroom Floo Flame and turn around to see a puzzle door a little way off. The solution for this one is: left dial: spider, right dial (on the floor above): three-headed snake. This contains mannequins and a fringed crimson clockwork scarf.
Same as last one: head to Potions Classroom Floo Flame, through the doors, and go left down the stairs until you reach the locked level one door. Open this and run all the way down the Long Gallery until you reach a more open area with the door on the left. The solution is: left dial: tentacle goat, right dial: unicorn. This contains vivarium landscape paintings and tattersall shirt and tie uniform.
In the Astronomy Wing area. Fast travel to the Charms Classroom Floo Flame, then turn around and go around the corner to the left to find the door. The solution is left dial: tentacle goat, right dial: one-eyed squid. This contains elf-made ivory gloves and jobberknoll statue.
In the Grand Staircase area. Fast travel to the Ravenclaw Tower Floo Flame, run down the corridor and look to the right for the door. The solution is: left dial (on the far side of the room): weird owl, right dial: spider with a face. This contains grey quidditch gloves and a bookstand.
Also in the Grand Staircase area. Fast travel to Grand Staircase Tower Floo Flame then head directly down the stairs to find the door set into the outer wall of the staircase. The solution is: left dial: lizard, second dial (behind you): one-eyed squid. This contains roughhouse gloves and a telescope.
