Construct a tetromino by attaching two $2 \times 1$ dominoes along their longer sides such that the midpoint of the longer side of one domino is a corner of the other domino. This construction yields two kinds of tetrominoes with opposite orientations. Let us call them $S$- and $Z$-tetrominoes, respectively. Assume that a lattice polygon $P$ can be tiled with $S$-tetrominoes. Prove that no matter how we tile $P$ using only $S$- and $Z$-tetrominoes, we always use an even number of $Z$-tetrominoes.

Archimedes planned to count all of the prime numbers between $2$ and $1000$ using the Sieve of Eratosthenes as follows: (a) List the integers from $2$ to $1000$. (b) Circle the smallest number in the list and call this $p$. (c) Cross out all multiples of $p$ in the list except for $p$ itself. (d) Let $p$ be the smallest number remaining that is neither circled nor crossed out. Circle $p$. (e) Repeat steps $(c)$ and $(d)$ until each number is either circled or crossed out. At the end of this process, the circled numbers are prime and the crossed out numbers are composite. Unfortunately, while crossing out the multiples of $2$, Archimedes accidentally crossed out two odd primes in addition to crossing out all the even numbers (besides $2$). Otherwise, he executed the algorithm correctly. If the number of circled numbers remaining when Archimedes finished equals the number of primes from $2$ to $1000$ (including $2$), then what is the largest possible prime that Archimedes accidentally crossed out?

For any integer $d > 0,$ let $f(d)$ be the smallest possible integer that has exactly $d$ positive divisors (so for example we have $f(1)=1, f(5)=16,$ and $f(6)=12$). Prove that for every integer $k \geq 0$ the number $f\left(2^k\right)$ divides $f\left(2^{k+1}\right).$ [i]Proposed by Suhaimi Ramly, Malaysia[/i]

Let $S$ be the set of positive integers. For any $a$ and $b$ in the set we have $GCD(a, b)>1$. For any $a$, $b$ and $c$ in the set we have $GCD(a, b, c)=1$. Is it possible that $S$ has $2012$ elements? [i]Proposed by Ognjen Stipetić.[/i]
