There are $13$ stones each of which weighs an integer number of grams. It is known that any $12$ of them can be put on two pans of a balance scale, six on each pan, so that they are in equilibrium (i.e., each pan will carry an equal total weight). Prove that either all stones weigh an even number of grams or all stones weigh an odd number of grams.

The radius $OM$ of a circle rotates uniformly at a rate of $360/n$ degrees per second , where $n$ is a positive integer . The initial radius is $OM_0$. After $1$ second the radius is $OM_1$ , after two more seconds (i.e. after three seconds altogether) the radius is $OM_2$ , after $3$ more seconds (after $6$ seconds altogether) the radius is $OM_3$, ..., after $n - 1$ more seconds its position is $OM_{n-1}$. For which values of $n$ do the points $M_0, M_1 , ..., M_{n-1}$ divide the circle into $n$ equal arcs? (a) Is it true that the powers of $2$ are such values? (b) Does there exist such a value which is not a power of $2$? (V. V. Proizvolov , Moscow)

Yatta and Yogi play a game in which they begin with a pile of $n$ stones. The players take turns removing $1$, $2$, $3$, $5$, $6$, $7$, or $8$ stones from the pile. That is, when it is a player's turn to remove stones, that player may remove from $1$ to $8$ stones, but [i]cannot[/i] remove exactly $4$ stones. The player who removes the last stone [i]loses[/i]. Yogi goes first and finds that he has a winning position, meaning that so long as he plays perfectly, Yatta cannot defeat him. For how many positive integers $n$ from $100$ to $2008$ inclusive is this the case?
