Five points on a circle are numbered 1,2,3,4, and 5 in clockwise order. A bug jumps in a clockwise direction from one point to another around the circle; if it is on an odd-numbered point, it moves one point, and if it is on an even-numbered point, it moves two points. If the bug begins on point 5, after 1995 jumps it will be on point [asy] size(80); defaultpen(linewidth(0.7)+fontsize(10)); draw(unitcircle); for(int i = 0; i < 5; ++i) { pair P = dir(90+i*72); dot(P); label("$"+string(i+1)+"$",P,1.4*P); }[/asy] $\textbf{(A)}\ 1 \qquad \textbf{(B)}\ 2 \qquad \textbf{(C)}\ 3 \qquad \textbf{(D)}\ 4 \qquad \textbf{(E)}\ 5$

On a circle, distinct points $A_1, ... , A_{16}$ are chosen. Consider all possible convex polygons all of whose vertices are among $A_1, ... , A_{16}$ . These polygons are divided into $2$ groups, the first group comprising all polygons with $A_1$ as a vertex, the second group comprising the remaining polygons. Which group is more numerous?

Circles $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ intersect at points $A$ and $B$. At point $A$ to $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ the tangents $\ell_1$ and $\ell_2$ are drawn respectively. The points $T_1$ and $T_2$ are chosen respectively on the circles $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ so that the angular measures of the arcs $T_1A$ and $AT_2$ are equal (the measure of the circular arc is calculated clockwise). The tangent $t_1$ at the point $ T_1$ to the circle $\omega_1$ intersects $\ell_2$ at the point $M_1$. Similarly, the tangent $t_2$ at the point $T_2$ to the circle $\omega_2$ intersects $\ell_1$ at point $M_2$. Prove that the midpoints of the segments $M_1M_2$ are on the same a straight line that does not depend on the position of points $T_1$, $T_2$.

Triangle $ABC$ has side lengths $AB=13$, $BC=14$, and $CA=15$. Points $D$ and $E$ are chosen on $AC$ and $AB$, respectively, such that quadrilateral $BCDE$ is cyclic and when the triangle is folded along segment $DE$, point $A$ lies on side $BC$. If the length of $DE$ can be expressed as $\tfrac{m}{n}$ for relatively prime positive integers $m$ and $n$, find $100m+n$. [i]Proposd by Joseph Heerens[/i]

Two players play the following game on a circular board with 2009 houses. The two plays put, alternatively, on an empty house, one of three pieces, called [i]explorer (E)[/i], [i]trap (T)[/i] or [i]stone (S)[/i]. A treasure is a sequence of three consecutive filled houses such that the first one (on any direction) has an explorer and the middle one doesn't have a trap. For example, [i]STE[/i] is not a treasure, while [i]TEE[/i] is a treasure. The first player forming a treasure wins. Can any of the players guarantee the victory? And, in affirmative case, who?
