$2014$ points are placed on a circumference. On each of the segments with end points on two of the $2014$ points is written a non-negative real number. For any convex polygon with vertices on some of the $2014$ points, the sum of the numbers written on their sides is less or equal than $1$. Find the maximum possible value for the sum of all the written numbers.

In a one-round football tournament, three points were awarded for a victory. All the teams scored different numbers of points. If not three, but two points were given for a victory, then all teams would also have a different number of points, but each team's place would be different. What is the smallest number of teams for which this is possible? [i]Proposed by A. Zaslavsky[/i]

A uniform circular disk of radius $R$ begins with a mass $M$; about an axis through the center of the disk and perpendicular to the plane of the disk the moment of inertia is $I_\text{0}=\frac{1}{2}MR^2$.
