A little hint on binary translation would be nice for those unfamiliar with it.
OK, I found it. Here's a push for those who might need it.
Keep this in mind: 10=2, 100=4, 1000=8, 10000=16, 100000=32, and 1000000=64.
Use these figures to find the decimal equivalent of each 7 digit group.
Then use ASCii chart to find the letters.
Remember to type in as all lower case and no space!
1010010=1000000+10000+10=64+16+2=82 Which is "R" on an ASCii chart
Level 18 is a toughy. Of 4 images, I only know what the last two are.
the 3rd is a major ivy league university
and the 4th is a famous international prize/award of accomplishment (which BTW does not award a prize in Mathematics, but does have one for Physics and one for Economics which are both math related).
Any hints of the significance of the first two images would help. I tried Googling the headline from the newspaper clip but found nothing.

Stuck on 18. I got the third picture thanks to 0 0, but I'm still stuck on all the others
I'm still at 18.
Nordino forum has post suggesting that it is a person who won the prize in mathematics from the award symbolized by the coin (4th image).
However, I googled the name of the award and the official site has no listing under mathematics and the 2nd site mentioned (which is info and trivia re: the famous award (N.P.) has explanations as to why there is no award for mathematics.
It is someone who won the prize in Economics?

I figured out who the man in the picture is.
He's a famous Princeton alumnus
He did in fact win the prize in the fourth picture
An Oscar winning movie was based on a biography of his life
John F. Nash
Thanks. Nice nested spoilers!

Thanks guys, I just need the 1st picture now. 0 0, EJGRgunner gave some excellent clues in post #83 (don't worry, he's got spoilers within spoilers). (1, 9, 4) refers to the number of letters in each word of a title...
PM me if you want the answer, I'm on 19 now
