In the triangle $ABC$, $AM$ is median, $M \in BC$, $BB_{1}$ and $CC_{1}$ are altitudes, $C_{1} \in AB$, $B_{1} \in AC$. The line through $A$ which is perpendicular to $AM$ cuts the lines $BB_{1}$ and $CC_{1}$ at points $E$ and $F$, respectively. Let $k$ be the circumcircle of $\triangle EFM$. Suppose also that $k_{1}$ and $k_{2}$ are circles touching both $EF$ and the arc $EF$ of $k$ which does not contain $M$.

A disk with radius $1$ is externally tangent to a disk with radius $5$. Let $A$ be the point where the disks are tangent, $C$ be the center of the smaller disk, and $E$ be the center of the larger disk. While the larger disk remains fixed, the smaller disk is allowed to roll along the outside of the larger disk until the smaller disk has turned through an angle of $360^\circ$. That is, if the center of the smaller disk has moved to the point $D$, and the point on the smaller disk that began at $A$ has now moved to point $B$, then $\overline{AC}$ is parallel to $\overline{BD}$. Then $\sin^2(\angle BEA)=\tfrac{m}{n}$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m+n$.

We define a [i]chessboard polygon[/i] to be a polygon whose sides are situated along lines of the form $ x \equal{} a$ or $ y \equal{} b$, where $ a$ and $ b$ are integers. These lines divide the interior into unit squares, which are shaded alternately grey and white so that adjacent squares have different colors. To tile a chessboard polygon by dominoes is to exactly cover the polygon by non-overlapping $ 1 \times 2$ rectangles. Finally, a [i]tasteful tiling[/i] is one which avoids the two configurations of dominoes shown on the left below. Two tilings of a $ 3 \times 4$ rectangle are shown; the first one is tasteful, while the second is not, due to the vertical dominoes in the upper right corner.
