Take a point $ P$ on the arc $ AB$ of $ C_2$ which is contained in $ C_1$. $ AP$ meets $ C_1$ at $ C$, $ CB$ meets $ C_2$ at $ D$ and the bisector of $ \angle CAD$ intersects $ C_1$ and $ C_2$ at $ E$ and $ L$, respectively. Let $ F$ be the symmetric point of $ D$ with respect to the midpoint of $ PE$. Prove that there exists a point $ X$ satisfying $ \angle XFL \equal{} \angle XDC \equal{} 30^\circ$ and $ CX \equal{} O_1O_2$.

During a break, $n$ children at school sit in a circle around their teacher to play a game. The teacher walks clockwise close to the children and hands out candies to some of them according to the following rule. He selects one child and gives him a candy, then he skips the next child and gives a candy to the next one, then he skips 2 and gives a candy to the next one, then he skips 3, and so on. Determine the values of $n$ for which eventually, perhaps after many rounds, all children will have at least one candy each.

Let $ABCD$ be an isosceles trapezoid with bases $AB=5$ and $CD=7$ and legs $BC=AD=2 \sqrt{10}.$ A circle $\omega$ with center $O$ passes through $A,B,C,$ and $D.$ Let $M$ be the midpoint of segment $CD,$ and ray $AM$ meet $\omega$ again at $E.$ Let $N$ be the midpoint of $BE$ and $P$ be the intersection of $BE$ with $CD.$ Let $Q$ be the intersection of ray $ON$ with ray $DC.$ There is a point $R$ on the circumcircle of $PNQ$ such that $\angle PRC = 45^\circ.$ The length of $DR$ can be expressed in the form $\frac{m}{n}$ where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. What is $m+n$?

A game is played by $n$ girls ($n \geq 2$), everybody having a ball. Each of the $\binom{n}{2}$ pairs of players, is an arbitrary order, exchange the balls they have at the moment. The game is called nice [b]nice[/b] if at the end nobody has her own ball and it is called [b]tiresome[/b] if at the end everybody has her initial ball. Determine the values of $n$ for which there exists a nice game and those for which there exists a tiresome game.

When a rectangle frames a parabola such that a side of the rectangle is parallel to the parabola's axis of symmetry, the parabola divides the rectangle into regions whose areas are in the ratio $2$ to $1$. How many integer values of $k$ are there such that $0<k\leq 2007$ and the area between the parabola $y=k-x^2$ and the $x$-axis is an integer?
