Stop Using the Word "Distraction"
Connie Lim, composer of the song that became the unofficial anthem of the Women's March, "I Can't Keep Quiet," photographed by Rachael Lee Stroud.
I see a lot of confusion from white people about why "white liberal" and "white feminism" are derogatory terms and then I see a truckload of white people calling the Muslim ban a "distraction."
"I don't mean to imply it's OK to ban Muslims, just that it's a distraction from other things we should be paying attention to." — every white person who has written an article about the "distraction" of the Muslim ban
A. I'm not understanding why these writers don't understand the belittling implications of the word "distraction," as if they were just hatched and flash-trained last week and are still working the kinks out in language acquisition, and B through Z. Calling the Muslim ban a "distraction" is racist. The Muslim ban is the problem itself. Whatever else Trumplethinskin and Bannon Wormtongue did during the Muslim ban chaos (and they did plenty), it was to make it easier to do more horrific things like the Muslim ban.
The protest at JFK against the Muslim ban, photographed by Stephanie Keith/Getty
Every action this administration or its leaders take cannot possibly be a "distraction" from every other action. It's also nonsense to call any resistance action a "distraction" or, appallingly, "playing the shock event game"– as if fighting for Muslim lives is a "game" we've been baited into playing as a waste of time.
It's ridiculous to label any resistance action as "playing into their hands," and it's even more ridiculous to state that a "shock event" like the Muslim ban was designed to "distract" us from the appointment of Steve Bannon to the NSC– an event that was on the front page of nearly every major English-language news outlet on the globe within seconds, an event that generated a trending hashtag on twitter, an event that launched thousands of thinkpieces. I googled "steve bannon nsc" to grab a link as an example, and I got 852,000 results.
It's not escaping notice that massive protests to protect brown people were quickly characterized as a "distraction" that "plays into their hands" by white writers stating Steve Bannon's appointment to the NSC is "far more consequential." What is he doing on the NSC but furthering his very public anti-Islam agenda? How can anyone possibly conclude that a firm demonstration of our unwillingness to tolerate that agenda be a "distraction" from actions designed to implement that agenda?
RESISTANCE WORKS. Black causes, now more than ever, need support. Trump has already vowed to target "urban areas" for voter purges using "illegal voters" as his excuse. Unarmed Black people are still being killed by police. Black people are unfairly treated by every aspect of the criminal justice system. There is much to do, and resistance actions WORK. (Photo source: Arkansas Times)
You know what's an actual "distraction"? Thinkpieces from white people that claim– without evidence– that resistance actions are useless and "playing into the hands of Trump and Bannon." The resistance is having an enormous impact. Two GOP senators have now vowed to vote against Betsy DeVos due to public pressure from their constituents. Nordstrom announced it will stop carrying Ivanka Trump merchandise after they were targeted by a resistance boycott. The CEO of Uber resigned from Trump's advisory committee after almost a quarter of a million people deleted the Uber app in protest of Uber's actions during the JFK protest against the Muslim ban. Lyft has pulled advertising from the white nationalist site Breitbart, formerly headed by Steve Bannon, bringing the total number of companies to pull ads from the "alt right" sight due to public pressure up to 820. And that's just in the past few days.
LGBTQ activists threw a dance party in front of Mike Pence's house to protest his anti-LGBTQ stances on January 19, the most public resistance action on behalf of LGBTQ rights, but far from the only one. On January 31, Trump announced he would continue Obama's protections for LGBTQ government workers. (Photo source: metro.co.uk)
This administration is losing support, and quickly, from both the left and the right.
Do not let anyone make you believe your resistance is "wrong," "a distraction," or "playing into their hands." YOUR RESISTANCE IS MAKING A DIFFERENCE. Your work is important. PERSIST. RESIST.

Culture, Theatre
Theatre Resistance Plan, 2017 – 2020
Pete Seeger's banjo
There is no more powerful tool for changing ideas, shifting cultural zeitgeist, and resisting authoritarianism than art. While theatre is not the biggest bat artists wield, our impact on the culture is not nil, especially if you include community theatre and school plays, and we must. Resistance to the Trump regime is the most crucial political battle of our lifetimes because this regime– and the zeitgesit behind it– stands to undo progress in every area of our society. Trump, Pence, McConnell, Ryan et al are actively seeking to impoverish you to enrich themselves, roll back every civil rights and workers' rights gain of the past 100 years, eliminate every consumer protection, eliminate the social safety net, and pretend you begged them to do it. It's telling that the very first appointee of the incoming administration was an amoral white nationalist, and the very first act of the new Congress was an attempt to eliminate their own ethical oversight.
One of the most dangerous aspects of this regime for us as artists is its leader's relentless attacks on free speech. He has always attacked the freedom of expression to the fullest extent of his ability as a private citizen, and has publicly stated his desire to use the power of the office of POTUS to continue to do so.
Trump takes power in just a few days, and we must be ready. The theatre community must form a resistance to this regime and to the cultural zeitgeist that supports it. We have a very specific, very powerful tool, and we must use it effectively.
1. All artificial divisions between theatres need to be dropped. A commercial Broadway offering is no more important to this fight than a community theatre production. Every show, every company, every artist is important. Denigrating shows for being "commercial" or "community theatre" serves no one in the resistance. Brushing off a show because it's a "college production" or a "kids' show" demonstrates a complete lack of understanding about what we're trying to do here. We're prepping for a long game. This is not just a resistance to one regime; it's a resistance to the ideas that put that regime in place. From now on, when we say "theatre," we are consciously including everything from the smallest storefront indie show to Hamilton, from street theatre to Ashland, from the elementary school play to Roundabout. Everywhere our art is practiced is an opportunity for effective resistance.
2. Define for yourself what the goals of your resistance will be. You will not be able to resist everything all the time, and you will burn out quickly if you try. Define for yourself the specific resistance goals you wish to focus on, and understand that those goals can shift from show to show, decision to decision. Here's a partial list: fighting racism and white nationalism, fighting sexism and misogyny, fighting bigotry against religious minorities (such as antisemitism and Islamophobia), fighting homophobia and transphobia, fighting ableism, protecting and expanding health care, protecting free speech and freedom of the press, protecting consumer protections, protecting public education, protecting workers' rights, fighting against "post-truth" and misinformation, fighting for action to slow climate change, fighting for voters' rights and election integrity. Are you a 501c3? You already exist to act in the public interest. Nothing about your mission needs to change in order to incorporate these goals, and "acting in the public interest" over the next four years can only mean doing whatever is in our power to resist this regime and its dangerous goals.
3. All theatre is political theatre and all art is activist art, whether you consciously know what message you're sending or not. We must consciously consider what messages we're sending with our art and make decisions that specifically work to further resistance goals. That doesn't necessarily mean staging overtly political shows. It means you have a critical obligation to assess what you're saying with the content of your work. It means, "Oh, it's just a fun comedy" doesn't cut it any longer, especially considering comedy is one of the most powerful tools any resistance ever has. Examine the content of the work you're considering. What is it saying? Does it speak honestly to your audience (and to your staff) about our nation? Who we are, who we want to be, who we fear becoming? Does it work to further our goals in any way? Can it be staged to do so? Remember that some of the most effective art is subversive art. The resistance goals you're meeting with your show need not be overtly political. Creating empathy for transgender people, immigrants, or Muslims in a small, personal show with no overtly political content would be powerful support for resistance goals, for example. You know best how to speak to your audience. Just be conscious of what you're saying to them.
Artistic directors, the best tool at your disposal is your diverse staff. When they read the plays under consideration for your season, ask them to look at messaging and/or political and social content in addition to the usual things you ask them to look at. If you are white, believe people of color on your staff when they tell you a script is racially problematic. If you are male, believe the women on your staff when they tell you a script is misogynistic. If you are able-bodied, straight, or cis, believe the disabled, queer, or transgender people on your staff when they tell you a script is ableist, homophobic, or transphobic. Actively seek out the opinions of others and believe them. What's at stake is too important to allow for fragile egos. When a script you love by a playwright you love is, for example, considered misogynistic by the women on your staff, set it aside. You can love the script at home. We have far more excellent scripts than we have slots within which to produce them. Believe your staff.
4. Ensure that your process supports resistance goals. This means hiring a diverse staff and treating them as well as you possibly can. We are long past the point when we can continue to discuss gender parity and diversity and still hire white men for each and every position of power. White men are 31% of the US population. Do they hold 31% of the leadership positions in your organization? They sure as hell make up more than 31% of the AD positions and director positions in the US. How many transgender or genderqueer people do you have on staff? How many disabled people? When you're hiring, consider diversity a specific desirable characteristic. Living as, for example, a Black woman or a disabled transwoman in the US creates a certain skillset in a person that will enrich your organization in multiple ways, not the least of which is identifying and understanding politically and socially problematic content in plays you're considering that you will otherwise miss if you do not have that same lived experience. Treat your people as well as you possibly can. I realize that your cash-strapped organization cannot always pay people what you would like to pay them. I realize funding is a massive, industry-wide problem. All I ask is that you ask yourself at every juncture, in every decision, if you are acting in accordance with your goals to the best of your ability.
5. We must set aside making compromises for financial gain. Yes, we must keep our doors open, but we do not need to pull back from our values to do that. More often than not, decisions that are presented as compromises for financial gain do not actually work to increase income; they're decisions made out of fear of risk where no real risk exists. It's not financially risky to do a play by a woman or cast people of color. We have a mountain of stats to prove this. There is always a way to act in accordance with your goals. Do not allow the fears of others to push you into poor decisions. Push back. We must prioritize resistance goals over financial ones, which leads me to:
6. We must re-evaluate our funding system top to bottom. Funders, you must work closer to the 501c3 ideal we all say we support. This means going back to the creation of the 501c3 as a way to fund theatres that releases them from needing to rely on ticket sales. The ultimate goal is radical hospitality– free tickets for all who need them– but of course implementing that industry-wide is a long way off. For now, we must step away from consolidating funding at the very top and work to distribute funds in a way that furthers resistance goals. We must keep our flagship theatres open, but we do not need to continue shutting out smaller theatres. Nowhere is this more vital than in initiatives to reach audiences of color. We fund large white theatres when they do an "ethnic" show to reach "under-served" audiences, while we routinely starve theatres– especially smaller theatres– run by people of color that have been serving those supposedly "under-served" communities for decades.
What does this mean in practice? It means living up to our liberal values and initiating a small redistribution of wealth by peeling a small amount of the funding currently going to the top 1% of theatres and using it to fund smaller companies who are able to reach audiences larger companies cannot. It won't take much. A $20K grant is chump change to a $20 million dollar a year theatre, but it's lifesaving to a small theatre. We must also re-evaluate the bizarre funding culture that funds projects instead of companies. When we do fund projects, we must look to fund more joint projects between smaller theatres and larger theatres. When you want to fund flagship theatres' initiatives to do outreach to an "under-served" audience, make that a grant for joint projects between flagship theatres and smaller companies already reaching that target audience. Funders, you are the life-blood of our resistance. You must make your funding more effective for the health of the community as a whole. There are things smaller theatres can do that larger theatres cannot, and vice versa. Every tool at our disposal needs to be supported.
7. Think about what you can do in addition to– or in tandem with– the actual shows that furthers your resistance goals. We're all strapped for time, money, and energy, but many of the things you can do are fairly low maintenance, and some of them you're likely already doing. Can you hold a Q&A for audiences after the show that focuses on issues raised within the show? Can you host a panel discussion with local theatremakers about diversity in casting, about an issue discussed in your show, about gender representation? Can you allocate a certain number of tickets for radical hospitality– free tickets for teachers, for members of the local community, for students? Many companies are already doing free student matinees, a radical act that changes lives. Can you provide free workshops for actors, playwrights, designers, admins? Or, if you have a space, can you provide free space to a local theatremaker already giving workshops, enabling that workshop to offer a certain number of scholarship spaces? Can you create a staged reading series for local playwrights of color, LGBTQ playwrights, women playwrights, disabled playwrights, giving them opportunities to develop their voices? These are just a few ideas– there are limitless things you can do.
Remember, though, that self-care is crucial. Don't take on more than you can handle. There's no way you can do everything. Delegate– which also provides opportunities for others. We all must get our shows up, and the work we do is grueling. Do what additional things you can, and don't waste time beating yourself up for not doing more. This is a long game. Protect yourself from burnout. Sometimes you won't be able to do anything extra, and that's fine– and that concept should be supported by funders as well. The work on our stages is paramount. We make theatre. That must come first. The art creates the empathy. The extras around the art are excellent and useful, but not critical. Do what you can, but prioritize the art.
8. A lot of these action items are directed at theatre companies, but individual theatremakers are just as important. Use whatever power you have, and never stop using it. When I cast, I call in a diverse group of actors for every role unless the role calls for an actor of a specific race or ethnicity. When I work with actors on audition monologues, I make sure the monologue choices I give them are by a diverse group of writers. When I teach, I make sure my reading lists are diverse. As theatre makers, we are one of the primary audiences for theatre. See shows that are working to further resistance goals. Donate to companies that are working to further resistance goals. Even signal boosting a show on social media is a concrete action you can take that genuinely helps– buzz sells more tickets than anything else. Actors, did your show just lose an actor? Suggest an actor who is a female, of color, transgender, genderqueer, disabled. Directors, are you giving acting workshops? Can you create one scholarship spot for an actor of color, disabled actor, transgender actor, or genderqueer actor? Playwrights, when you have readings, be sure to invite people whose lived experience and intersectional identities differ from yours. Ask for their perspective and listen to them. This is just a tiny taste of what's possible. You know far better than I do how you can use your power.
9. Listen. Listen. Listen. The artistic director of Theater MadCap here in the Bay Area, Eric Reid, often uses this hashtag: #thelisteningmovement. He's created a facebook group (linked above) that's "a place to speak/share/post your personal truths." He also uses #thelisteningmovement on articles he posts as well as statuses he writes or shares. It's something that makes me pause every time I see it– I pause and pay closer attention. Partially because I know Eric and know him to be brilliant, so the things he posts are worth my attention, and partially because of the very power of the idea: The Listening Movement. We must commit to listening– truly listening– to each other.
One of the most crucial aspects of resistance for those of us with privilege– and we all have some aspects of privilege in our intersectional identities– is listening. Listening and believing. Listening without challenge, without defensiveness, without fear. Just listening, believing, and learning. It's not easy to do, to be honest. It takes mindful effort. But it is crucial.
It's easy to think you understand a situation because you thoroughly understand those aspects of it that you recognize. Privilege, however, blinds you to other experiences. Privilege often means that you aren't even aware of how much you don't know. The only cure for this is listening. Listen to your staff. Listen to your friends. Listen to people when they share their lived experience. Listen and believe.
Theatre creates empathy. We know this. Yet we still have trouble listening empathetically to others. This is hard. But it is worth doing. It's what we ask our audiences to do every day.
10. Your resistance as an individual citizen is also important. This piece is specifically about how we can resist as a community, but your work as an individual is powerful as well.
Read Indivisible: A Practical Guide for Resisting the Trump Agenda. It's free to read online.
Do what you can, and don't let anyone make you feel bad for your efforts. Foolish people will condemn social media posts as "meaningless," but they are deeply incorrect. If a post on social media is meaningless, so is a news article, so is a blog post, so is any form of human communication. Just ensure that the articles you post are accurate to the best of your ability. The list of fake news sites compiled by Professor Melissa Zimdars of Merrimack College remains the best resource available to check the accuracy of your source. Contact your Senators and Representative to encourage them to vote in favor of your goals, or to praise them for having done so. The phone numbers for their local offices are easily found online. Call the offices in your area– not the one in Washington DC– for maximum effectiveness. Save the numbers in your phone so you can call quickly and easily. (Find your Representative here. Find your Senators here.) Donate to theatres and to other causes that further resistance goals. After the election, my family looked for an LGBTQ center in a deeply red state and began donating to them in addition to the causes we have in our regular rotation. We don't have much money, but we do what we can. Every little bit helps.
These ten points are just the beginning. You know your audience, you know your company, you know your heart. There are surely many things I have left out, and I encourage you to comment with your ideas.
The most important takeaway is that you are not powerless. On the contrary: as artists we have immense power. And with great power, comes great responsibility. (You knew a nerd like me would not be able to resist that one.)
We're at the beginning of a long, difficult struggle, but, as artists, our voices are critical. Art shapes culture. Art creates empathy. Art has the power to create the kinds of massive cultural shifts that change societies. We can do this. All we need to do is approach our art consciously.
Welcome to the resistance.

Is Race Being Injected into Dispensing of COVID-19 Vaccines?

COVID – Vaccine-Rollout-GettyImages
*(Via LA Times) – At the height of a pandemic that has torn through America's communities of color with particular ferocity, health officials are engaged in a fraught exercise in fairness: how to nudge communities of color toward the front of the line for scarce vaccines while pretending that race and ethnicity have no influence on vaccine priority.
The country has been deeply divided over quotas and affirmative action since long before the current health crisis. Assigning vaccine priority on the basis of race or ethnic heritage would therefore invite debate, recriminations and legal challenges.

There's this Yiddish proverb that says, "Man plans and God laughs." The saying points to the volatility of life and how, despite intricate planning, things don't always pan out as planned. But it there's one thing Americans seem to be great at planning for, it's weddings. In the United States, there are 44,230 weddings on average that take place each weekend. In the year 2018, the U.S. wedding industry was worth a mind-boggling $72 billion. It's safe to say that weddings are big business. Continue reading →

This plugin ensures that Yoast SEO analyzes all ACF content including Flexible Content and Repeaters.
Yoast SEO for WordPress content and SEO analysis does not take in to account the content of a post's Advanced Custom Fields. This plugin uses the plugin system of Yoast SEO for WordPress 3.1+ to hook into the analyser in order to add ACF content to the SEO analysis.
This had previously been done by the WordPress SEO ACF Content Analysis plugin but that no longer works with Yoast 3.0. Kudos to ryuheixys, the author of that plugin, for the original idea.
This Plugin is compatible with the free ACF 4 Version as well as with the PRO Version 5. Please be aware that it ignores Pro Add-Ons for Version 4. In that case please upgrade to ACF PRO Version 5.
Previously called Yoast ACF Analysis.
Issue since November 2017 -> https://github.com/Yoast/yoast-acf-analysis/issues/120. Support is terrible. Don't use this plugin.
Just what I needed to connect ACF Pro to Yoast. Although I don't need yoast to tell me if I have included everything I need to, it's nice to see some green ticks. After installing this plugin and writing my posts, my CPU usage went through the roof. This led to my host suspending my account until I dealt with the issue. After many hours of looking around for the culprit I came down to this one. Wasted 12 hours of my life. Thanks.
Spent way too much time trying to get this to work. Had to hire a programmer to do what this plugin said worked. If it works for you, great. If you're having troubles, drop it and go somewhere else.

DOWNTOWN PEOPLE: New Legal Eagle at City Hall
Our small city has been blessed with a long line of remarkable City Clerks, and Carolyn D'Andrea, who assumed the position October 13, is no exception. She may, however, at age 30, be Rye's youngest City Clerk.

While in college, where she majored in Political Science and minored in Italian Studies, D'Andrea did research for New York State's 40th Senate District over the summer. "From the start I was fascinated by the process of how government works," she said in an interview this week in the Clerk's Office, in between helping merchants renew parking permits and fielding questions from residents.
In three short months, D'Andrea said she's learned "how wonderful it is to work in a strong community, getting to know residents and business owners alike." She praised the City Council for their candor at meetings and the manner in which they welcome residents at the dais.
D'Andrea came to Rye from Scarsdale, where she was Deputy Village Attorney. "I was close to the Village Clerk in Scarsdale and I was ready to learn a different skillset." She added, "I put my legal background to work every day here; I run the FOIL program for one."
One of her favorite parts of the job is issuing marriage licenses. "You spend close to 45 minutes with every couple and hear some wonderful stories."
She and longtime Deputy City Clerk Diane Moore make a great team, which is fortunate as they are the only two full-time employees in the Clerk's Office. "We started keeping a sign-in sheet at the front desk to document the kinds of requests we get," said D'Andrea. "One day we had 43 people at the counter!"
Over the phone, the pair field questions on everything from "When's the next train to the city?" to "How do I get a license for my dog?" D'Andrea said she is happy to take residents through the City website and direct them to Metro-North (mta.info).
She made it through her first election. "I got to City Hall at 5:30 in the morning. This year I plan to arrive at 5! It's a long day, but the poll workers do a great job."
So far, D'Andrea said there haven't been any bad days on the job. "I came on board after the rock chipping discussion," she added. "A common thread in my community conversations is the shortage of parking in downtown. It's a conversation going on in many other communities, especially those, which like Rye, have opened up their downtowns to more mixed-use development."
Her commute home to Yorktown Heights is shorter than it was from Scarsdale, which gives her more time with her husband Rich, whom she met at age 9 and married two years ago, and a little more time to dedicate to photography, her favorite pastime. "My dad gave me a camera when I was 16. I rented darkroom space so I could develop my own black-and-white portraits. I'm slowly embracing digital photography."
Any portrait of Carolyn D'Andrea would show a young exuberant professional who is ready to tackle any challenge with charm and warmth.

The True Story of Madam C.J. Walker | TWO DOLLARS AND A DREAM
– [Narrator] The Guinness Book of World Records lists this woman as the first woman in history to start with nothing and earn her own million dollar fortune Her name was Madam C.J. Walker and this is her story (gentle guitar music) ♪ My hair is can't you, don't you ♪ ♪ You can't call me, don't you try ♪ – She didn't know anything about black is beautiful but if it came right down to it what she did was very beautiful ♪ Just like cockleburras ♪ Nappy that's the reason why – At that time, Madam Walkers' name was known all over the south There wasn't a creek, a puddle, a river or nothing that if there was one negro there they knew about Madam Walker ♪ Straighten it or burn it ♪ Makes no difference, I don't care ♪ – It was quite an important thing to black women, particularly, and I think really in the history of the whole women's movement very important to all women in the country ♪ Got to smooth these knots ♪ Got to be an Indian queen – [Narrator] The Nappy Headed Blues, as the song was entitled, reflected an attitude shared by many black Americans at the turn of the century According to the song, "my hair is can't you, don't you "You can't call me, don't you try "Nappy, that's the reason why." In those days, nappy hair was considered a problem by just about everyone, except Madam C.J. Walker She was born Sarah Breedlove in 1867 to slaves newly freed by the Civil War in this cabin in Delta, Louisiana Married at 14, widowed with a daughter A'Lelia at 20, she had little other than her dreams, dreams she said of a magic formula that would solve those nappy headed blues For Madam C.J. Walker, these nappy heads would become her fortune although she began with only two dollars and a dream ♪ Go to Madam Walker, send a $50 bill ♪ ♪ Go to Madam Walker, send a $50 bill ♪ ♪ Then send me some pomade ♪ Help a poor girl out if you will ♪ – I don't know how I can picture to you how unruly colored peoples' hair was You didn't have to do anything to it to make it unruly, it was just born like that If a person had a dream, in order to make a profit it was just as much a miracle as anything else – Madam Walker was working for Scholes He was a wholesale druggist in Denver and she was making extra money on the side selling Madam Poro's work He saw it one day and asked her what it was and she told him and he says, "I can analyze this for you "and you can leave out some or put in more "and you can make the money yourself." So she got a can of it and handed it to him and he did just that And that is how she really got her start with this growing of hair – [Narrator] However Madam Walker came upon her dream, her formula was a success By 1910, she was able to set up shop in this small factory in Indianapolis
Madam Walker recommended a system of hair care, washing and oiling the scalp with her preparations then pressing the hair with her newly designed hot comb – All of us marveled to think that she said she had a dream to make this preparation and she made the preparation, then a dream to use a hot comb and even dreamed how to make the comb and the product plus the procedure It was a God send for the colored race – I had a beauty shop from 1906 to 1946 I had a white shop The bankers' wife, the mayors' wife and everybody that was anybody came to my shop Madam Walker to my idea was something that a person could, you'd have to honor her for what she had done She had taught us how to take care of our hair Because I couldn't even do my own hair I had to go to one of Madam Walker's graduates to have my own hair done (upbeat jazz music) – [Narrator] There were 10 million black people living in the United States in 1912 Madam's dream was able to grow She broadened her product line to include face powder, skin brightener, soap, hair coloring, glossine, even pomade for men Eventually, 23 products shared the Walker label (upbeat jazz music) In 1915, Madam Walker began a visual presentation in churches using these hand-colored glass slides to show the progress and development of the Walker company The factory staff, the office staff, this slide shows F.B. Ranson Esquire, hired by Madam in 1910 as the company's attorney and general manager He was to be an important part of the Walker company until his death in 1947 The presentation included a slide of the companys' newly acquired delivery truck, Madams' Indianapolis home and even pointed out the progress made by blacks in the country Madam Walker traveled tirelessly around the country Soon Walker products were selling throughout the United States and the world – There was an open market in all the West Indies and the European countries because there was no one there at that time addressing colored peoples hair And under the hair was over in all those countries just like it was here in America (upbeat jazz music) – [Narrator] Madams' determination, coupled with the companys' innovative advertising brought quick and great rewards – I heard that Madam Walker was making lots of money, that Madam Walker was putting a lot of personal effort in it, that she was visiting the homes and hometowns of negro women and that they were flocking towards her She endeavored to get the priests on her side Them priests would tell the negro blacks in the towns where they're coming what a wonderful thing this here black queen and them black women would buy that stuff so fast like leaves falling off a tree – Madam Walker was making $1,000 a day and if it went to 900 today, tomorrow it'd be $1,100 More or less $1,000 a day and that was week in, week out for I don't know how many years but for a long, long time And at that time, there was not tax taken out of it – Madam Walker came here one time and talked at the college and I recalled I loved the way she, her mannerisms got me I knew she was a great woman
and we looked upon her as a great woman and I recall after she had been introduced and walked to the platform, she took off her floor-length mink coat and she didn't pull it off until after the applause and she attempted to lay it on a chair and it fell to the floor and someone ran to pick it up and she said, "That's all right, it's all right." See a mink coat falling on the floor to Madam Walker didn't matter ♪ Now I'm a brown gal ♪ Brown gal ♪ Making my life just a bubble ♪ Not even taking the trouble ♪ To even blow the bubbles away ♪ – [Narrator] Madam had an ironclad rule, none of her army of saleswomen were allowed to use the word straightener and it never appeared in any Walker ads or on any Walker products But Madam Walker has been called the hair straighten queen, a hypocrite imposing Caucasian standards of beauty on the black women of America ♪ The heart maven's son ♪ Has had my feelings – The popular belief that Madam Walker only was out there selling hair grease to straighten blacks' hair to make them look more white is totally false – It was a method to beautify rather than to be thinking turning somebody white or making them look like white That was never Madam Walker's idea – See she gave the women pretty hair, that enhanced their condition, their look She wasn't trying to make them look white She wasn't trying to make the hair look like white hair She was trying to make the hair improve the appearance of her people ♪ I'm a gal ♪ Floppity gal ♪ Making my life just a bubble ♪ Not even taking the trouble ♪ To even blow bubbles away – Beautiful, just beautiful Now when I say beautiful, I don't mean beautiful in features, I mean beautiful in her ways, a very interesting woman to be around And she had known her shortcomings So she surrounded herself with people of education who could be teaching her every minute and she was very, very quick to catch on – [Narrator] The years of Madam's rise to fame and fortune were, for the black masses, years of bitter hardship Segregation was the law, the way of life, lynchings, a near daily occurrence Yet in 1915, the Walker Company proudly announced that Madam C.J. Walker was America's first self-made millionairess She also became black America's first philantropist At a time when the average income for black families was $12 a week, she gave freely of her time, prestige, and money $5,000 to an anti-lynching fund, $5,000 to the YMCA, $5,000 to a friend, Mary McLeod Bethune, to help with her school The Walker company declared Madam C.J. Walker the greatest benefactress of her race (upbeat jazz music) Madam Walker believed in black women and continually strived to instill in them a sense of racial identity and pride She saw that they were far too reliant on men for survival Becoming a Walker agent was a step along the road to independence – Well Madam Walker from all I've heard was a very shrewd business woman She was also one of the first women's lib people She very much wanted women to become independent, to get outside of the home, and she saw in this business a chance to train women,
especially black women, of course, who at that point in time were, the only jobs were domestic jobs – [Narrator] Walker products, manufactured by a predominantly female workforce, were not available in stores In a marketing scheme later used by industry giants like Avon, they were sold door to door by an army of trained agents Madam offered her agents incentives, bonuses, trips and conventions She established a chain of beauty colleges Over 50,000 women shared the Walker dream She gave black women a sense of pride and self-worth but just as importantly, she gave them jobs – All of the Madam C.J. Walker agents had a great love for Madam They felt she had done something for the race of women, they felt that she had given them an opportunity to make livings for themselves which were different from the living that most colored women had been able to make They were in business for themselves They were doing something They were making other colored women look beautiful They loved the company They glorified Madam C.J. Walker ♪ Now you mighty like a rose ♪ All dressed up in fancy clothes ♪ ♪ You're just another brown gal who's all full of them ♪ ♪ Now here's a fix you'll be living ♪ ♪ Yeah, you're just a brown gal ♪ ♪ Chocolate gal ♪ Making my life – [Narrator] A firm believer in equality, Madam Walker employed women as sales agents, as teachers in her schools, as beauticians in her salons, and as office and factory workers in Indianapolis ♪ Brown gal, chocolate gal – At that time, there wasn't any other places available for negro girls, except at the Indianapolis Recorder and the Freeman – Both were two black negro papers – So we were very fortunate in having employment at the Madam Walker Company – In the first place, it was the only big organization that negroes had And they had a real nice crews who worked in the back, didn't they Esther? Esther and I worked in the same rom most of the time, didn't we? – Yes, we did And then another thing too, we used to think think about that Madam Walker made that great discovery and she was doing so much to help our people and to help our women to look beautiful You know all women like to look beautiful and always look well-groomed And of course, we always, we started using the products too in order that we could make ourselves look beautiful too ♪ Oh two by two ♪ They go marching through ♪ All the sweethearts ♪ On boole boole boole ♪ Mighty fine – She just taught black women to be proud of themselves so that they in turn could demand things that they couldn't have gotten otherwise if they didn't have a certain amount of pride attached to them ♪ I'd love to join at one – [Narrator] Madam's lifelong dream of beauty, independence and self-respect had become a reality Black was indeed beautiful and Walker sales continued to grow While the firms' headquarters remained in Indianapolis, Madam moved east to New York She decided to build herself a home and what a home it turned out to be The Villa Lewaro designed in 1917 by black architect Vertner Tandy Sr was the shining proof of the Walker Companys' success Located in suburban Irvington, New York, amid the estates of the Rockefeller's and Thomas Edison, the villa made an overwhelming statement that achievement in this society was no longer for whites only – I have never even since seen anything like it Not even on the tours of some of the castles and things that I had been to, have they been anything like that It was just fantastic, it was so beautiful – Of course, I had never seen such furniture and tapestry and walls
– And every known thing that you'd want was right there It was gorgeous – A gold piano, a beautiful pipe organ – And every room music was piped into it, and that was something we didn't have here in this part, we didn't know nothing about piped in music – It was wonderful I think must've had 30 some odd to maybe near to 40 or 50 rooms Just one room after another, just something like out of a picture book – Because she was a negro, they thought she wouldn't keep it up But when she got through building it, they were thrilled with it as anybody 'cause it was gorgeous – I was utterly amazed at what I saw I was amazed to see negroes had come from the cotton pads to a magnificent place like Villa Lewaro Carson Street from Rockefeller, ancient resident – [Narrator] Madam Walker built the Villa Lewaro as a symbol of the life that was possible for the new negro In her own words, "It is not for me, "it is for my people, "so that they can see what can be accomplished "no matter what their background is." – I mean it was just something That life was a life, it was the beautiful life for the beautiful people It was every bit of that – [Narrator] Years of hard work and dedication to her company and her people were exhausting for Madam Walker By 1918, her health was failing Time once spent traveling for the Walker company, was now spent convalescing at the Villa Lewaro On May 25th, 1919, Madam C.J. Walker passed away She was 52 years old This song was written in her memory Madam's last will and testament reflected her convictions Two-thirds of the companys' profits must always go to charity The companys' leader must always be a woman and the bulk of her personal fortune would be bequeathed to her only child, 37-year-old A'Lelia As a monument to Madams' dream, the company erected the Walker Building in Indianapolis – The Walker Building was a fulfillment of Madam C.J. Walkers' dream She had always wanted to build the building and after her death, her daughter A'Lelia and my father, were determined to build that building – Well, you can imagine knowing that Madam Walker made her first products on her kitchen stove and knowing that she made it in the little factory down the street from her home finally and then to build this great flat iron building, a city block on one street, a block and a half on another shaped like a flat iron, you don't know what a flat iron is, but it was a way they used to iron clothes, to see that building four stories high, and the elevator, all that was new to us (upbeat jazz music) – [Narrator] The Walker Building opened with fanfare on the eve of the Great Depression The company produced this film to showcase its' accomplishments It replaced the slide presentation and was shown in black churches, meeting halls, and theaters throughout the country The film gave a complete picture of the Walker daily operation, the workers arrive in the morning, the handpacking of Walker products begins (upbeat jazz music) An order is brought by F.B. Ransom to the forelady of the factory (upbeat jazz music) The order is packed for shipping It is checked one last time before going out And then it is loaded onto the Walker Truck for delivery The Walker Building was more than just a factory It served black Indianapolis as a shopping mall At the barber shop,
the gents could get a haircut and the ladies could get a manicure At the tailor, the family could have their clothes made or altered The shoe shine parlor was always a step ahead of the latest news A well stocked grocery store was available as was a grand ballroom that doubled as a meeting hall In the Walker Building, black residents of Indianapolis could find their own doctors, dentists, drug store, fine restaurant, and, of course, a beauty salon specializing in the Walker system of beauty For black Indianapolis, the Walker Building was a mecca, a source of jobs, a source of pleasure, a source of pride (upbeat jazz music) – Nothing like that had ever been in Indianapolis No one had ever had a building Of all the people in Indianapolis who were supposed to have so much money, none of them had ever built anything, maybe a little house and two or three outhouses, that's about all But this was a gorgeous thing, oh it was something, and then they had a drugstore, then you had the Coffee Pot That's where you went downstairs and had your coffee and you went there on Sundays after church and any time in the week If you couldn't find anybody, go down to the Coffee Pot, you'd find 'em And that was for older people as well as younger people It was a lovely meeting place – And they had this beautiful ballroom with a crystal ball Remember that, Esther? – Oh yes, I do because we had some happy nights there We tended to dances and like that It was very fantastic – And they had a beautiful pipe garden too, in the theater It was really the only place that people went – [Narrator] The Coffee Pot was cozy, the ballroom was grand, but the showplace of the Walker Building was its theater Madam had sued a local Indianapolis theater over its segregated admissions policy The Walker Theater would've made the lady smile (pipe music) – Now sitting in the Walker Theater at this time, I recall the opening date, December 1928, when I was employed as head usher The opening date was a gala event The whole town turned out It was a night to be remembered in Indianapolis The theater was definitely a showplace It was the first negro constructed, owned and operated new theater for negroes in the United States All other theaters in Indianapolis at that time, and I suppose Indiana, were segregated – The place of the Walker Building in Indianapolis, and I think in black America, is unparalleled The fact is that at that point in time the blacks could not go to the movies in Indianapolis They could not go to white hotels They could not go to dance halls, doctors Physicians, dentists, lawyers were having problems getting offices and the building really fulfilled a great need – When I first came here in 1911, you could go to the moving picture shows and they began to put signs in the windows, colored trade not solicited and you could not go to a moving picture house unless you passed And we had the English theater here which brought in the legitimate shows and the negroes had to sit on the last two rows of the balcony or up in the gallery Orpheum Theater was the same thing You couldn't go to Loew's Theater at all And that was Indianapolis I mean you couldn't go in there unless you passed for white because there was no place in Loew's for negroes You couldn't eat in the five and 10 cent store to sit down and eat in the five cent store You couldn't get an ice cream soda downtown in the drugstore – [Narrator] But the Walker Building changed that Now, blacks in Indianapolis had their own soda fountain
in the same building with their own theater The Walker Theater presented vaudeville shows and with the arrival of the talkies, the first-run films Some were quite a change from the studios usual mainly white productions – Some black pictures were shown at the theater I believe most of the black pictures that were produced in the United States, those pictures were completely black produced and acted I feel that black people were happy to see black people on the screen, happy to see black people producing pictures, happy to see themselves portrayed in motion picture ♪ I am confessing ♪ That that trade ♪ Will I learn my lesson ♪ Oh, I've been fooled for 30 days ♪ ♪ I can't trust at the store (jazz music) – [Narrator] By the time of the Walker Buildings' dedication, daughter A'Lelia had moved to New York Little naptown could not contain her dynamic spirit Neither, as it turned out, could big New York A'Lelia Walker was the embodiment of an unrealized fantasy in black America She was one of the first blacks in the United States to inherit indisputable wealth She followed not an uncommon tradition among America's moneyed families, the first generation earns, the second generation spends – A'Lelia, the daughter, Madam Walker's daughter was young She had everything at her fingertips She was bound to be different She couldn't have been just like Madam Walker Madam Walker came from scratch with an idea and a dream and all of that She worked her way up A'Lelia was given everything, every opportunity You wouldn't expect her to be like her mother ♪ I've got the world on a string ♪ ♪ Sitting on a rainbow ♪ Got the string around my finger ♪ ♪ What a life ♪ What a world ♪ I'm in love – A'Lelia's personality was absolutely fantastic She could make friends with anybody She had that happy faculty Her mother was a little reticent but A'Lelia was just outgoing And the minute that you saw her, you just fell in love with her ♪ I've got a song that I sing ♪ I can make the rainbow ♪ Anytime I move my finger ♪ Lucky me – [Female] She was an Amazonian type woman – [Female] Not a fat woman, just a large woman – [Female] She knew how to dress and she dressed – [Female] She liked to eat, she liked to party, she liked to spend money – [Female] She partied every night, every minute on the minute She could do something every minute of the day ♪ I've got the world on a string ♪ ♪ Sitting on a rainbow ♪ Got the string around my finger ♪ ♪ What a life ♪ What a world – Well, we went to the Cotton Club And when they saw A'Lelia Walker come, they let the famous A'Lelia Walker with her party come in (jazz music) Later on, I heard that there wasn't particular about serving black But to them, A'Lelia Walker wasn't no black A'Lelia Walker was a black princess She was a royal black son of a gun, that's what she was like, she was royal with royal instinct – [Narrator] She was married and divorced three times She drove in the grandest cars, drank the finest champagne She was surrounded by the best and the brightest of her era In a jazz age Harlem filled with fabulous characters, A'Lelia Walker was the most fabulous of them all She was black societys' reigning queen and whatever she did was front page news – Everything that she did was duly noted in the black press She was a glamorous individual to many people
And also happened to given the company millions of dollars worth of publicity A'Lelia Walker was excellent for the Walker Company (upbeat jazz music) – [Narrator] The Roaring 20's smoked through Harlem A'Lelia Walkers' extravagance was a major part of the Harlem mystique It lured white opinion makers and rich sensations seekers north of 110th Street There they met, through her, a dynamic talented generation of black creative artists History calls what resulted the Harlem Renaissance (upbeat jazz music) ♪ Go Harlem, go Harlem, go Harlem, go Harlem ♪ ♪ Get rhythm, get rhythm, get rhythm, get rhythm ♪ ♪ Now laugh, laugh, laugh ♪ Laugh your cares away ♪ Bling, bling, bling ♪ Go Harlem, go Harlem, go Harlem, go Harlem go ♪ – [Narrator] The Mexican-born painter Miguel Covarrubias captured the spirit of Harlem night life in these drawings ♪ Go Harlem, go Harlem, go Harlem, go right now ♪ (upbeat jazz music) – [Narrator] A'Lelia opened her own little night spot She called it The Dark Tower It was a hangout for artists and those who respected their talents Langston Hughes, Countee Cullen, Zora Neale Hurston, Claude McKay, all left a mark on this nations' literary landscape They were all Dark Tower regulars and benefited from A'Lelia Walkers' wide social circle – After she got the Dark Towers, then that was kind of a hangout Everybody tried to go to Dark Towers on Sunday night to be up there and see who's out and see who wasn't out and see who's in and so forth and it was quite interesting And it was a place where people knew that they could meet If they had strangers in town, they'd take them to the Dark Towers so that they're sure to meet all of the celebrities of the city 'cause they would be there And that would be white and black Wasn't just only negroes – [Narrator] Monday through Saturday A'Lelia reigned in Harlem Sunday though, was not a day of rest Her nonstop party moved to the outskirts of town, the Villa Lewaro Riffs from Armstrong and Ellington gave way to the harmonies of Schubert, Brahms and Chopin – A'Lelia was considered the leader of negro society And on Sunday afternoon, she was famous for her musicals She would pick out the outstanding talent among our people to present to not only our people, but to the elite of the other race They looked forward to coming to A'Lelia Walkers' musicals – [Narrator] The musicians were black, talented and unknown The guests were mostly white, either rich, influential or both, such as critic Carl Van Vechten – And the name of Carl Van Vechten naturally that really carried all the weight in the world because he was the most outstanding music critic in New York City and he made it his business to be there He was interested to see what the negroes really had to offer in the field of art And I think that was her main purpose, to inform them what we are and what we do and what we stand for – [Narrator] But if A'Lelia had fame, fortune and influence, love seemed destined to allude her forever Her marriages were stormy, her divorces bitter, and she was childless It appeared that the Walker dynasty would end with her until Mae Bryant came into A'Lelia's life – A'Lelia Walker met Mae Bryant on one of her business trips to Indianapolis And Mae was working in the factory of the Walker Company A'Lelia first noticed her because Mae had such a beautiful head of hair She had very, very long hair and it came down to her waist – Mae was darker than a woman who had hair like Mae's usually was
Mae had long hair And they were trying to sell hair growth – And they used Mae for ads at first, just the back of her head, really, just the hair So they became friendlier and friendlier and she felt that she could help this girl and she adopted Mae – And they used Mae as a front by saying that their goods grew Mae's hair and A'Lelia used that, as I view it, to advance their economic progress My impression of Mae was that she was an adopted Cinderella Cinderella came into great luxury and so forth from nowhere ♪ Heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven ♪ ♪ I don't need golden wings ♪ Or none of those things ♪ 'Cause Harlem's heaven to me – [Narrator] The tabloids called it the million dollar wedding They weren't far off the mark Mae Bryant, the shy, young Walker heiress, became the bride of Gordon Jackson, a doctor from Chicago It turned out to be a match made somewhere other than heaven but the spectacle captured the attention of the nation – I was a flower girl in the so-called million dollar wedding Took place in 1923 The wedding was put on with much fanfare It was a huge wedding party The Daily News had the brides' picture on the front page and all of the New York papers reported this very expensive wedding Champagne flowed and the villa was just packed with people – [Narrator] Mae's fairytale marriage had, unfortunately, a very real life ending, divorce Soon, however, she would meet the man who would become her second husband His name was Marion Perry and they came together at the Villa Lewaro – Mae was there, that's the first time I ever met Mae But I never knew anything about Mae till I got up to the house Mae being married to this man in Chicago, I didn't know nothing about it And I didn't pay no attention particularly to this so-called million dollar wedding I didn't pay no attention to it Actually, my mother was planning for me, she was planning for me to be about the biggest nigger in the country but we disappointed her, me and my brother (laughs) – [Narrator] But the grand made joy ride that was A'Lelia Walker's life was nearing the end of the line By 1929, America had hit the economic bottom and the Walker Company could no longer support her opulent lifestyle F.B. Ransom, still the general manager, still in Indianapolis, had sounded early alarms A'Lelia turned them off – Oh she was a spendthrift Money was only made to be spent, as far as she was concerned And she spent it like a drunken sailor, she spent it She had it and she spent it – The fortune was definitely on the way down In the first place, there was too much money paid out at the top for salaries and so forth, too much money that was put out for A'Lelia Walker's expenses The Villa Lewaro actually cost them $500,000 or $600,000 Together with the fact that A'Lelia was spending so much money at the same time – [Narrator] In 1928, A'Lelia was forced to close the Dark Tower, giving this notice, "Dear members and friends, "Having no talent or gift "but a love and keen appreciation for art, "The Dark Tower was my contribution "But due to the slothfulness on the part of the members "to make use of The Dark Tower, "it will be closed November 1st "as a private institution "but available to rent for private parties, "such as luncheons, teas, card parties and receptions "I cannot tell you how sorry I am for this "Sincerely, A'Lelia Walker."
Two years later, A'Lelia was forced to put her beloved Villa Lewaro on the block The furnishings were sold at a public auction It lured crowds of the curious to Irvington, black and white Most came just to gawk The villa's contents, purchased by the Walkers for a small fortune, sold for almost nothing Symbolically, the auction was a body blow to the Walker Company's image and prestige – I think A'Lelia through the years had become quite willful and she hardly listened to anybody She liked to eat, she loved to eat I can remember coming in the house and the first thing she'd holler and ask my mother, what are you cooking today? She loved to eat She liked parties, liked her friends and she just did not heed the doctors' warnings – It is my personal opinion that A'Lelia knew that her fortune was declining and that she no longer would be in the ascendency, that she didn't care really if she lived or died because she was gonna live in luxury as long as she lived and she went there and she ate too much and drank too much and she knew it and the doctor had told her to be careful and she didn't be careful and I believe it knocked A'Lelia out because A'Lelia wanted to be knocked out – [Narrator] In 1931, Harlem buried A'Lelia Walker like the black queen that she had been Adam Clayton Pal Sr performed the services, Langston Hughes read the eulogy, and the four bon-bons provided the music – Well, I think we were the only musical organization that was represented and we did, I think this is one of her favorites, A'Lelia's favorites, I'll Be Seeing You by Noel Coward (piano music) – [Narrator] Thousands came to say goodbye To her dear friend Langston Hughes, A'Lelia's death marked the end of the gay times of the new negroes in Harlem The crash of 1929, he wrote, "Left white people with less money to spend on themselves "and practically none to spend on negroes "The Depression," Hughes added, "brought everybody down a peg or too, "and the negroes had but a few pegs to fall."

Q: How can a node in dijkstra be relaxed after it has already been processed? I have implemented dijkstra's code using a priority_queue in c++ and tried to submit this code here.
Here is my code:
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;

using ll = long long;

#define pc(x) putchar(x)
#define gc() getchar()

inline void writeInt(int n)
{
    int N = n, rev, count = 0;
    rev = N;
    if (N == 0)
    {
        pc('0');
        pc('\n');
        return;
    }
    while ((rev % 10) == 0)
    {
        count++;
        rev /= 10;
    }
    rev = 0;
    while (N != 0)
    {
        rev = (rev << 3) + (rev << 1) + N % 10;
        N /= 10;
    }
    while (rev != 0)
    {
        pc(rev % 10 + '0');
        rev /= 10;
    }
    while (count--)
        pc('0');
    pc(' ');
}

inline int FAST_IO()
{
    char ch;
    int val = 0;
    ch = gc();
    while (ch == '\n' || ch == ' ')
        ch = gc();
    val = 0;
    while (ch >= '0' && ch <= '9')
    {
        val = (val * 10) + (ch - '0');
        ch = gc();
    }
    return val;
}

int n, m;

void print(const vector<int> &parent, int n)
{
    if (n == -1)
        return;
    print(parent, parent[n]);
    writeInt(n);
}

int main()
{
    std::ios::sync_with_stdio(false);
    cin.tie(nullptr);
    cout.tie(nullptr);

    n = FAST_IO();
    m = FAST_IO();
    vector<vector<pair<int, ll>>> adj(n + 1);
    vector<int> parent(n + 1, -1);
    vector<ll> dist(n + 1, LLONG_MAX);
    vector<bool> processed(n + 1, false);

    while (m--)
    {
        int u = FAST_IO();
        int v = FAST_IO();
        int w = FAST_IO();
        adj[u].emplace_back(v, w);
        adj[v].emplace_back(u, w);
    }

    auto cmp = [&dist](const int &a, const int &b)
    {
        return dist[a] > dist[b];
    };

    priority_queue<int, vector<int>, decltype(cmp)> pq(cmp);
    pq.push(1);
    dist[1] = 0;
    while (!pq.empty())
    {
        int u = pq.top();
        pq.pop();
        if (u == n)
            break;
        if (processed[u])
            continue;
        processed[u] = true;

        for (auto &[v, w] : adj[u])
        {
            if (dist[u] + w < dist[v]) // if this is true then processed[v] should be false
            {
                //if v can be relaxed -> processed[v] is false

                dist[v] = dist[u] + w;
                parent[v] = u;

                if (processed[v]) // THIS CODE SHOULD NEVER RUN BUT IT DOES???
                    printf("%d is processed", v);

                // if (!processed[v])//redundant
                pq.push(v);
            }
        }
    }

    if (dist[n] < LLONG_MAX)
        print(parent, n);
    else
        printf("-1");

    return 0;
}

The issue occurs when I relax a node v. According to dijkstra's algorithm, we have found the min. distance to a node v if we have processed that node and are currently on it. So this is exactly what I do. Whenever I pop a node from the heap, this means that we have found the shortest distance to that node so I mark that node as processed[v] = true.
Now whenever I relax a node, this means that I found a distance to that node that is less than the distance previously computed (i.e. I found a shorter path). This implies that that node cannot have already been processed (i.e. processed[v] is false). So to test this, I wrote an if statement inside the relaxation portion which prints something if we find a node that we can relax and it has already been processed. According to the algorithm, this should never be possible and it is like writing:
if(false)//this will never run
    print(something);

But this fails in the codeforces submission because for some reason the if statement runs which is what I don't understand. I have even tried to make everything long long incase it was a overflow error but that also gives the same output.

The apprenticeship levy starts in April 2017. Once collections start, levy-paying employers will want to know how to access the funds in their digital account – and how to spend them.
I'm product owner for one of the teams building the digital apprenticeship service. We've been working out the best way to help employers spend their levy. As product owner, it's my responsibility to prioritise tasks. I lead a multidisciplinary team to develop the service in line with what users tell us they need.
We want to provide employers with a means to use the funds in their digital account to buy training from the provider of their choice. In order for that to happen, employers need to be able to do the following.
Set up an account: employers want to see the balance of their levy, which means the apprenticeship service has to talk to HMRC. The only way we can do that securely is to ask employers to set up an account. Employers need to enter their Government Gateway credentials, which enables us to find their PAYE scheme details and check exactly how much levy has been paid into the relevant PAYE scheme at HMRC.
Set up a team: most levy payers are large organisations and they'll need other people to be able to come in and use the system without having to register separately. This feature enables the account owner to invite in other users - for example, staff from HR or finance departments. We use the gov.uk notify service to send out email invites.
View an account statement: employers told us they want to see an account statement, similar to a bank statement, to understand how their levy is being spent. Finance users may want to reconcile payments they've made to HMRC or apprenticeship managers may want to reconcile payments that have gone out in relation to individual apprentices. This needs to be a multi-purpose statement - showing top-ups, co-investment and the English percentage (for more details on these, see apprenticeship funding from May 2017).
Add PAYE scheme(s): we've learnt that account owners in organisations with complex payroll structures might want to pool all levy funds into a single digital account. This makes it easier for them to manage their apprenticeship programme across the organisation.
Add organisations: employers that have complex payroll structures, or are part of a connected company, tell us they want to know exactly which bit of their organisation is employing each apprentice. All companies in a group can draw on the same funds, but they'll need to be added to the account first (our definition of connected companies and charities is based on the definition in the Employment Allowance).
Businesses change all the time and we're trying to accommodate that. For example, we've made sure there's no limit to the number of team members an employer can register.
Also, we started off with role names for each team member. But employers told us that different organisations use different names for similar roles. And some smaller companies paying the levy may combine two or more roles into one. So, instead of role names we've given users 'privileges' - different actions they're allowed to complete.
From January 2017, selected levy-paying employers will be able to set up an account, set up a team, add organisations and add PAYE schemes. We'll release further functions in the months running up to the start of levy collections.
Non-levy paying employers will continue to manage their apprenticeships through training providers until at least 2018.
In the meantime, all employers can estimate apprenticeship funding, find a training provider and recruit apprentices through our existing live services. For more information on getting an apprentice, go to the National Apprenticeship Service or call 0800 015 0600.
"From January 2017, selected levy-paying employers will be able to set up an account, set up a team, add organisations and add PAYE schemes. We'll release further functions in the months running up to the start of levy collections."
What does this mean please? should companies in scope to pay the levy do nothing until they are asked to register or should they voluntarily register on DAS?
Do companies need to wait until they have been notified by HMRC they are officially in scope to pay the levy before they take any action? its a bit confusing. I'm trying to guide a company through the registration process but I'm not sure what to say?
Do levy-paying employers have to wait to be informed that they can register? Where do we register and when?
I am also looking for information on where to register and when or whether employers will be notified individually to do this.
Is there any guidance as to when employers will be able to register?
How do I register for a DAS account?


Syria: Is the situation about to change?
A lot has happened today. Keep in mind that very soon, talks are supposed to start in Geneva between the government of Bashar al Assad, the rebel opposition and Iran. So what has been happening today. There has been fierce fighting in the north of Syria, I have been hearing in particular about the city of Menbij, a city east of Aleppo and not far from the the Turkish border. I was there in the spring of last year and met with the the city council leader, he invited me to stay at his home. Also today Turkey has closed its entire border with Syria, sending many soldiers to guard the entire border, ostensibly due to the threat of suicide bombers. Then there was the report released in the last few hours by a London law firm and reported by the Guardian newspaper and CNN regarding the systemic torture and execution of Syrian civilians over the last decade. I posted a copy here.
So what is going on? Considering the fact that the Geneva talks are due to start soon. it can only be down to the fact that strategy is changing. It seems to me that the USA has realized it seriously miscalculated its approach to the situation in Syria. Bashar al Assad actively yet surreptitiously encouraged extremists to come into Syria with the idea that the global political system would support him against them. The problem was the USA has also encouraged extremists to go to Syria as a way to counter balance the hegemonic plans of Iran. However the entire situation has now become out of control. All these extremist groups are using Syria as a training ground and will send trained religious extremists to commit terrorist acts all across the world. Both Assad and the USA thought they could use religious extremists for their own purpose. It is the same as trying to hold a mad dog by its ears, they can't win.
So now there is a new dynamic, this report into torture and execution by the Assad regime can only lead to inevitable consequences. Maybe not the ones the USA wanted. It would prefer to keep Assad in power but the Guardian and CNN reporting this is going to certainly stir the fire and it will be hard to ignore.
All I can say for the moment is that this is like watching a game of chess, those who think they are in control are those about to lose their king. In the short term, get ready for some serious pushing and shoving between the USA and Russia. Russia will not want to see its darling Assad toppled so it will be playing all sorts of political games in conjunction with Iran and Assad in the near future. If Assad goes then Russia will lose its last major influence in the middle east. Watch this space.
Carter-Ruck & Co.Solicitors of London, 6 St Andrew Street, London,EC4A 3AE.
Take time to read it. It documents systemic torture by the Assad regime. What I find interesting is that both the Guardian and CNN have published this in the last few minutes, just a short time before the start of the talks in Geneva. What political games are being played? At the same time, it is only correct that those responsible for these crimes are brought to justice. Read the document and let me know what you think.
Two of the example images from the report below.
In the next couple of weeks I am going to post the the story of Kazeem, a Nigerian man who had to flee his country after surviving being shot twice in the head by political rivals. I have seen the x-rays of his head wounds, the bullets are still in his head, I could feel the entry wounds. I will photograph him with the x-ray images of his wounds. His story is quite remarkable and I have been working on this for a while now. I think you will be shocked by what happened.
