-liter capacity stand at the vertices of a regular pentagon. Cinderella and her wicked Stepmother go through a sequence of rounds: At the beginning of every round, the Stepmother takes one liter of water from the nearby river and distributes it arbitrarily over the five buckets. Then Cinderella chooses a pair of neighbouring buckets, empties them to the river and puts them back. Then the next round begins. The Stepmother goal's is to make one of these buckets overflow. Cinderella's goal is to prevent this. Can the wicked Stepmother enforce a bucket overflow?

Another sphere of radius 
is internally tangent to the lateral surface of the cone, but does not intersect the larger inscribed sphere. A plane is tangent to both of these spheres, and passes through the inside of the cone. The intersection of the plane and the cone forms an ellipse. Find the maximum area of this ellipse.
