Given an isosceles triangle $ABC$ (with $AB=BC$). A point $X$ is chosen on a side $AC$. Some circle passes through $X$, touches the side $AC$ and intersects the circumcircle of triangle $ABC$ in points $M$ and $N$ such that the segment $MN$ bisects $BX$ and intersects sides $AB$ and $BC$ in points $P$ and $Q$.

Let $P$ and $Q$ be two regular $n$-gons (for some positive integer $n\ge4$) inscribed in $\omega_P$ and $\omega_Q$, respectively, such that $A$ and $B$ are vertices of both $P$ and $Q$. Suppose a third circle $\omega$ of radius $1$ intersects $P$ at two of its vertices $C$, $D$ and intersects $Q$ at two of its vertices $E$, $F$. Further assume that $A$, $B$, $C$, $D$, $E$, $F$ are all distinct points, that $A$ lies outside of $\omega$, and that $B$ lies inside $\omega$. Show that there exists a regular $2n$-gon that contains $C$, $D$, $E$, $F$ as four of its vertices.

Tanya and Serezha take turns putting chips in empty squares of a chessboard. Tanya starts with a chip in an arbitrary square. At every next move, Serezha must put a chip in the column where Tanya put her last chip, while Tanya must put a chip in the row where Serezha put his last chip. The player who cannot make a move loses. Which of the players has a winning strategy? [i]Proposed by A. Golovanov[/i]

Suppose 2012 reals are selected independently and at random from the unit interval $[0,1]$, and then written in nondecreasing order as $x_1\le x_2\le\cdots\le x_{2012}$. If the probability that $x_{i+1} - x_i \le \frac{1}{2011}$ for $i=1,2,\ldots,2011$ can be expressed in the form $\frac{m}{n}$ for relatively prime positive integers $m,n$, find the remainder when $m+n$ is divided by 1000.

Erick stands in the square in the 2nd row and 2nd column of a 5 by 5 chessboard. There are \$1 bills in the top left and bottom right squares, and there are \$5 bills in the top right and bottom left squares, as shown below. \[\begin{tabular}{|p{1em}|p{1em}|p{1em}|p{1em}|p{1em}|} \hline \$1 & & & & \$5 \\ \hline & E & & &\\ \hline & & & &\\ \hline & & & &\\ \hline \$5 & & & & \$1 \\ \hline \end{tabular}\] Every second, Erick randomly chooses a square adjacent to the one he currently stands in (that is, a square sharing an edge with the one he currently stands in) and moves to that square. When Erick reaches a square with money on it, he takes it and quits. The expected value of Erick's winnings in dollars is $m/n$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m+n$.
