Nancy shuffles a deck of $52$ cards and spreads the cards out in a circle face up, leaving one spot empty. Andy, who is in another room and does not see the cards, names a card. If this card is adjacent to the empty spot, Nancy moves the card to the empty spot, without telling Andy; otherwise nothing happens. Then Andy names another card and so on, as many times as he likes, until he says "stop." [list][b](a)[/b] Can Andy guarantee that after he says "stop," no card is in its initial spot? [b](b)[/b] Can Andy guarantee that after he says "stop," the Queen of Spades is not adjacent to the empty spot?[/list]

Consider a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and at least $n^2/10$ edges. Suppose that each edge is colored in one of $c$ colors such that no two incident edges have the same color. Assume further that no cycles of size $10$ have the same set of colors. Prove that there is a constant $k$ such that $c$ is at least $kn^\frac{8}{5}$ for any $n$. [i]David Yang.[/i]

A [b]palindrome[/b] is a whole number that reads the same forwards and backwards. If one neglects the colon, certain times displayed on a digital watch are palindromes. Three examples are: $ \boxed{1:01} $, $ \boxed{12:21} $. How many times during a 12-hour period will be palindromes? $ \text{(A)}\ 57\qquad\text{(B)}\ 60\qquad\text{(C)}\ 63\qquad\text{(D)}\ 90\qquad\text{(E)}\ 93 $
