In an island, there exist 7 towns and a railway system which connected some of the towns. Every railway segment connects 2 towns, and in every town there exists at least 3 railway segments that connects the town to another towns. Prove that there exists a route that visits 4 different towns once and go back to the original town. (Example: $ A\minus{}B\minus{}C\minus{}D\minus{}A$)

Circles ${{w} _ {1}}$ and ${{w} _ {2}}$ with centers ${{O} _ {1}}$ and ${{O} _ {2}}$ intersect at points $A$ and $B$, respectively. The line ${{O} _ {1}} {{O} _ {2}}$ intersects ${{w} _ {1}}$ at the point $Q$, which does not lie inside the circle ${{w} _ {2}}$, and ${{w} _ {2}}$ at the point $X$ lying inside the circle ${{w} _ {1} }$. Around the triangle ${{O} _ {1}} AX$ circumscribe a circle ${{w} _ {3}}$ intersecting the circle ${{w} _ {1}}$ for the second time in point $T$. The line $QT$ intersects the circle ${{w} _ {3}}$ at the point $K$, and the line $QB$ intersects ${{w} _ {2}}$ the second time at the point $H$. Prove that a) points $T, \, \, X, \, \, B$ lie on one line; b) points $K, \, \, X, \, \, H$ lie on one line. (Vadym Mitrofanov)

For positive integers $n$ consider the lattice points $S_n=\{(x,y,z):1\le x\le n, 1\le y\le n, 1\le z\le n, x,y,z\in \mathbb N\}.$ Is it possible to find a positive integer $n$ for which it is possible to choose more than $n\sqrt{n}$ lattice points from $S_n$ such that for any two chosen lattice points at least two of the coordinates of one is strictly greater than the corresponding coordinates of the other?

Given several nonnegative integers (repetitions allowed), the allowed operation is to choose a positive integer $a$ and replace each number $b$ greater than or equal to $a$ by $b-a$ (the numbers $a$ , if any, are replaced by $0$). Initially, the integers from $1$ are written on the blackboard until $2013$ inclusive. After a few operations the numbers on the board have a sum equal to $10$. Determine what the numbers that remained on the board could be. Find all the possibilities.
