Let $\omega$ be the circumcircle of triangle $ABC$ with $AB<AC$. Let $I$ be its incenter and let $M$ be the midpoint of $BC$. The foot of the perpendicular from $M$ to $AI$ is $H$. The lines $MH, BI, AB$ form a triangle $T_b$ and the lines $MH, CI, AC$ form a triangle $T_c$. The circumcircle of $T_b$ meets $\omega$ at $B'$ and the circumcircle of $T_c$ meets $\omega$ at $C'$. Prove that $B', H, C'$ are collinear.

Let $S$ be the set of positive integers not divisible by $p^4$ for all primes $p$. Anastasia and Bananastasia play a game. At the beginning, Anastasia writes down the positive integer $N$ on the board. Then the players take moves in turn; Bananastasia moves first. On any move of his, Bananastasia replaces the number $n$ on the blackboard with a number of the form $n-a$, where $a\in S$ is a positive integer. On any move of hers, Anastasia replaces the number $n$ on the blackboard with a number of the form $n^k$, where $k$ is a positive integer. Bananastasia wins if the number on the board becomes zero. Compute the second-smallest possible value of $N$ for which Anastasia can prevent Bananastasia from winning. [i]Proposed by Brandon Wang and Vincent Huang[/i]
