Let $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ be two circles that intersect at two points: $A$ and $B$. Let $C$ and $E$ be on $\omega_1$, and $D$ and $F$ be on $\omega_2$ such that $CD$ and $EF$ meet at $B$ and the three lines $CE$, $DF$, and $AB$ concur at a point $P$ that is closer to $B$ than $A$. Let $\Omega$ denote the circumcircle of $\triangle DEF$. Now, let the line through $A$ perpendicular to $AB$ hit $EB$ at $G$, $GD$ hit $\Omega$ at $J$, and $DA$ hit $\Omega$ again at $I$. A point $Q$ on $IE$ satisfies that $CQ=JQ$. If $QJ=36$, $EI=21$, and $CI=16$, then the radius of $\Omega$ can be written as $\frac{a\sqrt{b}}{c}$ where $a$, $b$, and $c$ are positive integers, $b$ is not divisible by the square of a prime, and $\gcd(a, c) = 1$. Find $a+b+c$. [i]Proposed by Kevin Zhao[/i]

Grogg’s favorite positive integer is $n\ge2$, and Grogg has a lucky coin that comes up heads with some fixed probability $p$, where $0<p<1$. Once each day, Grogg flips his coin, and if it comes up heads, he does two things: [list=1] [*] He eats a cookie. [/*] [*] He then flips the coin $n$ more times. If the result of these $n$ flips is $n-1$ heads and $1$ tail (in any order), he eats another cookie. [/*] [/list] He never eats a cookie except as a result of his coin flips. Find all possible values of $n$ and $p$ such that the expected value of the number of cookies that Grogg eats each day is exactly $1$.
