To get to the Stromboli Volcano from the observatory, one has to take a road and a passway, each taking $4$ hours. There are two craters on the top. The first crater erupts for $1$ hour, stays silent for $17$ hours, then repeats the cycle. The second crater erupts for $1$ hour, stays silent for $9$ hours, erupts for $1$ hour, stays silent for $17$ hours, and then repeats the cycle. During the eruption of the first crater, it is dangerous to take both the passway and the road, but the second crater is smaller, so it is still safe to take the road. At noon, scout Vanya saw both craters erupting simultaneously. Will it ever be possible for him to mount the top of the volcano without risking his life?

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with incenter $I$, and let $D$ be a point on line $BC$ satisfying $\angle AID=90^{\circ}$. Let the excircle of triangle $ABC$ opposite the vertex $A$ be tangent to $\overline{BC}$ at $A_1$. Define points $B_1$ on $\overline{CA}$ and $C_1$ on $\overline{AB}$ analogously, using the excircles opposite $B$ and $C$, respectively. Prove that if quadrilateral $AB_1A_1C_1$ is cyclic, then $\overline{AD}$ is tangent to the circumcircle of $\triangle DB_1C_1$. [i]Ankan Bhattacharya[/i]

We say that a natural number $n$ is interesting if it can be written in the form \[ n = \left\lfloor \frac{1}{a} \right\rfloor + \left\lfloor \frac{1}{b} \right\rfloor + \left\lfloor \frac{1}{c} \right\rfloor, \] where $a,b,c$ are positive real numbers such that $a + b + c = 1.$ Determine all interesting numbers. ( $\lfloor x \rfloor$ denotes the greatest integer not greater than $x$.)

On each turn the player to turn with $m$ stones in his pile may remove at most $f(m)$ stones from the opponent's pile, but must remove at least one stone. (The own pile stays unchanged.) The first player to clear the opponent's pile wins the game. Prove that there exists a positive integer $n$ such that Aino loses, when both players play optimally, Aino starts, and initially both players have $n$ stones.
