Kate Klassen's Team B.C. finishes fifth at U-18 nationals
Klassen led her team into battle in a hugely competitive tournament that was held in Manitoba.

Kate Klassen and Team B.C. earned a fifth place finish at the 2019 National Women's Under-18 Championship, which was held last week in the Manitoba towns of Morden and Winkler.
Klassen's crew went 1-2 in the preliminary round with a 5-1 win over Manitoba offset by losses to Quebec (7-1) and Ontario (5-2). Klassen picked up one goal and one assist in the win.
Missing out on the semi-final round, Team B.C. faced Alberta in the fifth-place game and won 4-1.
The result wasn't what Klassen hoped for coming in to the eight-team tournament, but she said the experience was a memorable one.
"We had high expectations heading into the tournament but the bounces just didn't go our way," Klassen said. "It was nice to beat the Canada Winter Games gold medal winners from Alberta in our last game."
"It has been a pleasure representing Team B.C. over the last two years. I've made a lifetime of memories and friendships playing the game I love."

Believe it or not, over two years from the original release of LEGO Dimensions we are still finding amazing Easter Eggs left behind by the awesome team at TT Games. After discovering the incredibly well hidden Doug Rattmann in the main story's Portal level well over a year after the game had released, we figured we had cracked the final egg, but boy were we wrong!
While this isn't as large and fantastic as Rattmann, for the Portal fans out there, it's definitely fun to learn about.
Hidden deep behind the walls of Test Chamber 5 of LEGO Dimensions main story is none other than Hoopy The Hoop, the infamous large ring of metal that has slowly crept into the hearts of Portal fans everywhere.
Not sure who Hoopy the Hoop is? You're not alone! Check out his history plus where to find him in our fun feature video below!
What do you think of this fun new Easter Egg hidden so well inside LEGO Dimensions? Let us know in the comments below!


Things are not turning up well for Android devices for quite some time. Previously we have been informed about Android Malware Imitates Google+ and spies on your phone call followed by Android Trojan Record Phone Calls. Now members of AndroidPolice Team have discovered a major security flaw in recently launched HTC Android phones. This Security vulnerability allows any one to get a complete access of user logs.
Every time you perform an action such as email, SMS, GPS, Call, HTC android phone keeps a log of that data with help of HTC logging tools which comes pre-loaded in latest updates to these devices. The most unfortunate part is yet to come as this logged data then an be accessible to any application via internet. The would immediately let any developer to write an application, access the data and use it for any means.
This huge security flaw has been found in Android phones manufactured in Taiwan. Models vulnerable to data theft includes EVO 4G, EVO 3D, Thunderbolt, EVO Shift 4G, MyTouch 4G Slide, the upcoming Vigor, some Sensation models and probably others too. A video demonstration has also been provided by AndroiPolice Team which clearly shows the security vulnerability.
We will keep you posted on latest updates so follow us on twitter and facebook to get updates on Apple, Android, Symbian, Gadgets &News.


Happy Election Day to all of our friends and loved ones! We hope that wherever your political sentiments might lie, you're taking time today to get out and rock the vote.
October marked an exciting time for us here at Destination, as we participated in the inaugural Pumpkin Palooza on the 500 block of Penn Street, brought to us by the good people at the Reading Downtown Improvement District, on October 22nd. The festival included live music and entertainment, a pumpkin pie eating contest, scarecrow making, pumpkin carving, mummy wrapping, a pumpkin seed spitting contest, horse-drawn wagon rides, and of course, the annual DID scarecrow contest!
The contest encourages entrants to create humorous, entertaining, mischievous, or lovable scarecrows as a way to bring together local businesses, organizations, families, churches, and schools in a delightful autumn event downtown. We're very proud to announce the Destination Realty scarecrow, in the form of Despicable Me's Gru, along with a host of Minions, took second place in the contest!
The Penn Street Market included special seasonal goods and produce from the vendors to accompany the Pumpkin Palooza's events, and if you were in attendance, you might have noticed Destination Realty sponsoring the craft zone for families with two of our lovely volunteers. Donations for the craft zone were generously provided by Weaver Orchards, Home Depot, Opportunity House, and the Reading Eagle.
With hundreds of local residents turning out to enjoy the music and carriage rides, the Pumpkin Palooza was definitely an amazing event, and we're so honored to have been part of it! We'll be looking forward to seeing you at the next one!
A Very Reading Christmas, right down to the tree!
This month, some very special preparations for the holidays in Reading are in full swing, with the usual parades and the annual tree-lighting ceremony on the agenda, but also a unique nod to last year's "Charlie Brown Christmas tree", which was featured on news stories worldwide.
The annual holiday parade will take place next Saturday, November 21st at 9:00 am. It will begin at the intersection of Penn Street and 11th St, and proceed down Penn until 2nd St. In the event of rain, the parade will be postponed until the 28th of November at the same time and location.
This year's tree, a 25-foot concolor fir, is already standing tall and proud in Penn Square. Its official lighting ceremony will be held the night before the parade, Friday November 20th, at 6:30 PM. The tree itself was donated by two Berks County residents, Barb and Pat Emmett, the owners of Godfrey's Welcome to Dogdom in Brecknock Township, and is considered by many to be a significant improvement over its predecessor.
Whatever happened to that ugly tree, anyway? The fate of the tree, which sparked a nationwide debate over whether it was too ugly to display or the perfect way to remind us of the true meaning of Christmas, was influenced by Luke Schultz, a foreman in the city public works department, and Steve Weber, a carpentry instructor at the Reading-Muhlenberg Career and Technology Center.
Both felt that last year's tree did a great deal to bring positive publicity to Reading, and Schultz, a former student of Weber's, thought that his teacher could help commemorate the tree in a very special way. So, with the help of the students in the carpentry program, Weber fashioned the wood from the "ugly tree" into a commemorative bench that will be featured in this year's holiday display.
The city itself has given a nod to the 2014 viral news event by putting up a doghouse, constructed by the Public Works Department, resembling Snoopy's own residence, as part of its holiday display. The doghouse was placed at the corner of Fifth and Penn streets, representing the Charlie Brown story of which last year's tree became symbolic.
This Saturday, don't miss your chance to witness the incredible Reading 120 Cycling Competition!
Planning a trip to Reading for the weekend, or just looking for something to do in the Berks County area? You absolutely cannot miss the Reading 120, a grueling 120-mile cycling competition playing out across the Reading area on Saturday. Those of you who have been following us for some time will remember we briefly touched on this event earlier this year, when we discussed Pretzel City Productions and their efforts to bring business and tourism to the City of Reading.
Poised to become the greatest single-day road race—or Classic—in all of North, South, and Central America, the Reading 120 will host racers from across the world, including Mexico, Guatemala, Finland, Sweden, Holland, France, Canada, the Dominican Republic, Colombia, and our own United States.
Starting out with a tour of 75 miles of beautiful Berks County farmland, and culminating in laps around Reading that include five climbs up Mount Penn, this race holds the distinct honor of being one of only seven International Cycling Union, or UCI, races in the entire USA. UCI races must all be sanctioned out of Switzerland, and to hold UCI status signifies the very highest standard of race quality, attracting competitors from around the world.
Spectator info regarding the race's route, the best vantage points, parking, and event times can be found on the official website here. Along with the race itself, there will also be a salsa dancing event by the finish line, children's races and other programs for the little ones, handcycle races, and plenty of delicious food and drinks. A full list of events can also be found on the Reading 120 site here. Whether you're excited to watch the race to beat all races, or you just want to dance at the finish line, Reading is the place to be on Saturday!
If you're not already familiar with Reading Eagle's new venture, Pretzel City Productions, they're the folks that brought us the amazing Fire + Ice Festival in January of this year. This month, inspired by the Berks Jazz Fest, one of the city's most popular annual events for the past 25 years, Pretzel City Productions brings a new type of music festival to the city: the Berks Country Fest.
Pretzel City Productions was the brainchild of executive director of circulation and promotions for the Reading Eagle Company and president of WEEU 830 AM, Dave Kline. Kline believes that the City of Reading could experience its own renaissance, fueled by events like this month's Country Fest, January's Fire + Ice Festival, and the Reading 120, a 120-mile cycling event sanctioned by the Union Cycliste Internationale, the Switzerland-based governing body of sports cycling, which takes place on September 21st.
The Berks Country Fest runs from June 15th-21st, providing you the perfect opportunity for Father's Day plans, and celebrates the diverse musical genres that embody the melting pot of America, including country, acoustic rock, Americana, folk, bluegrass, jazz, world and orchestral music. Major headliners include Ruthie Foster, Mary Fahl, Bill Staines, and Mexican guitar duo Rodrigo y Gabriela, as well as a variety of local bands and musicians. There are loads of great events going on for the duration, and it all starts with a kickoff on June 15th at 3PM, at local favorite restaurant, The Peanut Bar.
In addition to these special performances taking place throughout the festival, there will be two free concerts featured as well. The Common Chords Concert for Unity & Peace will be taking place on Saturday, June 20th, along Reading's Restaurant Row; and the Reading Pops Orchestra with special guest Dave Cullen will perform Music of America, their annual Father's Day concert, at Cacoosing Meadows Park in Sinking Spring (bring your own lawn chair!).
The full schedule of events, as well as tickets to purchase, are available from the official Berks Country Fest website: http://www.berkscountryfest.com. We hope to see you there!
As some of you might already know, last month marked four years since the founding of Destination Realty, LLC. When we started out in 2011, the only employees were Sean Moretti, the founding realtor & broker, and one part-time administrative staffer to handle real estate sales and commercial leasing. We started with one client, a property owner who had a few rental properties in the city of Reading to be managed for rent collection and city codes inspections.
Since then, Destination Realty has grown to a staff of five employees covering the marketing, accounting, leasing, and administrative departments. Furthermore, we now proudly provide property management services to over 20 owners and almost 100 rental units in Reading, West Reading, Birdsboro, Mohnton, and other municipalities throughout Berks County.
While we've invested in some advertising along the way, we owe the majority of our growth to word-of-mouth and referrals from past & present clients as well as fellow realtors. We're proud of our relationships with both the property owners whose units we manage, and the prospective owners & renters that come to us to help them find a place they can be happy to call their home. Those relationships have brought us to where we are today, and we are so grateful to continue to grow and develop with all of you in the coming years. Thank you for choosing Destination Realty, LLC, and we can't wait to see what the future holds!
One of Reading's most iconic landmarks, the Pagoda can be seen for miles beyond the city limits, regardless of season, a mountaintop sentinel of sorts, keeping watch over the city. It's even been featured in at least one major motion picture! However, despite its prominence, many people are unfamiliar with its history, or are unaware of the myriad of activities and events that are currently offered there. Whether you've never seen it up close, or you've visited plenty of times, there's lots to do at the top of the city!
Originally intending for it to serve as a luxury resort atop Mt. Penn, and more importantly, cover up the damage his quarrying operation had done to the mountainside, William Witman, Sr. commissioned the Pagoda in 1906 for $50,000. The Pagoda was designed in the fashion of a battle castle hearkening back to the Shogun Dynasty in Japan, complete with an antique bell, cast in Obata, Japan, in 1739. Construction was completed in 1908; however, because of an unfortunate series of events involving bank foreclosure and Mr. Witman being denied a liquor license, he never actually opened it.
In 1910, the Pagoda and its 10 acres of surrounding land were deeded to Jonathon Mould, a local business owner, and his wife, Julia, who proceeded to sell the property to the City of Reading for the grand sum of $1. Since then, it has undergone repairs and restoration twice, once in the late 60s, due to fire and weather damage, and again for its hundredth anniversary in 2008-2009.
Currently, the Pagoda is open from 12-4pm on Saturdays and Sundays. The Pagoda Café on the first floor offers free WiFi, along with snacks, hot & cold drinks, locally brewed sodas, Berks Hot Dogs, and other treats. The second floor offers a 20'x30′ room that can accommodate up to 50 people, which is available to rent for meetings, small weddings, or parties. The top floor, of course, features the observation deck, and the famed Japanese bell.
On the first Saturday of every month, the Pagoda Writers meet in the café from 1-3pm, and just last week, the city held Groundhog Day at the Pagoda. Twice a year, in June and August, the Blue Mountain chapter of the Sports Car Clubs of America hosts the Pagoda and Duryea Hillclimb Races. There's also plenty of volunteer opportunities, if you're looking to give a little something back!
For a full schedule of upcoming activities and information on rental rates, tours, and volunteer opportunities, visit the Pagoda website at www.readingpagoda.com. All images (except antique bell) property of photographer Justin Jermacans, who has an entire series of gorgeous Pagoda pictures worth checking out.
Stay frosty at the hottest event this season: the Reading Fire + Ice Fest!
Free up your schedules for this weekend, because the Reading Fire + Ice Fest is the place to be! The event, brought to you courtesy of the Downtown Improvement District, runs from Friday, January 16th, to Sunday, January 18th, and offers a wide array of indoor and outdoor activities that everyone can enjoy. Not only will there be a 5-alarm chili cookoff and a Snowfall Ball at the historic Abraham Lincoln Hotel, but the streets will be filled with live music, salsa dancing, interactive ice sculptures, an ice bar, as well as an ice-carving competition.
Sculpted Ice Works creates wedding ice sculptures, seafood displays, color logos in ice, ice luges, ice bars, live ice carving demonstrations for any event, team building courses, custom designs for photo shoots, fashion show backdrops, hanging sculptures and more.
The full schedule of events can be found online at http://www.readingfireandicefest.com/events.html. Sponsors of the Fire + Ice Fest, including Destination Realty, will also have their logos (or iconic symbols from their logos) carved in ice and displayed during the event, so keep an eye out for us while you're enjoying all the festivities! We look forward to seeing everyone there!

I have a dual 500Mhz ATI Rage Pro graphics card, and was thinking of upgrading.
Unfortunately, I don't know which card to buy. Hell, I don't even know if upgrading is worth it. The people on this board seam knowledgeable so I figured I would ask here before I went shopping.
* Is buying a new card worth the money?
* Which graphics card should I buy?
* Any suggestions on where to get it?
* How much will it cost me?

3) Processor: the Dual 500 is a solid processor, and until a reputable company comes out with at least a dual 800 processor upgrade, I wouldn't touch this, because the best single processor out there now (1.2 GHz) isn't a big enough jump in speed to justify the cost. Powerlogix makes some dual processor upgrades now, but there have been a number of complaints about them at macintouch.com news -- buy this brand at your own risk.

29/01/2015�� Travel Tips, packing carry-on luggage for airlines. TSA 3-1-1 rules for liquids, gels in your carryon baggage. Packing tips, travel tips and more found at ww... TSA 3-1-1 rules for liquids, gels... Liquids, aerosols and gels. There are government limits to the amount of liquids, aerosols and gels that you can have in your carry-on baggage when you�re departing from an international terminal.
You can tell what you are allowed to take on your plane by looking at your airline's restricted items list (they all tend to be much the same, as they are based off aviation rules).... Air passengers can only take liquids with them in individual containers with a maximum capacity of 100 milliliters each. These containers should be packed in one transparent, re-sealable plastic bag of not more than one litre capacity per passenger.
As others have mentioned, there is no specific prohibition on bringing liquids on an airplane. However, at most airports with a passenger security perimeter, you may not bring containers larger than 100 ml through security if they contain liquids (you can bring empty containers). how to turn off caller id iphone The TSA and airport screeners are strict about the amount and type of liquids that travelers can take with them on the plane. However, they've fortunately developed a handy guide to help passengers prepare for their trip.
20/08/2008�� Best Answer: There are no limits to liquids in checked baggage (subject to ordinary weight, dangerous goods and other restrictions). The restrictions on bottle size and plastic bags and the rest of the folderol relate to carry on luggage.
Traveling with e-cigs and e-liquid on a plane isn�t something anyone wants to really waste much time thinking or worrying about. The TSA guidelines for traveling with liquid apply to nicotine e-liquid as well.
Vapes are an essential travel item, no matter where you go you will want to take them along for the ride too. Since most US travel involves stringent security checks just to board ,so many vapers get on the plane and want nothing more than to inhale a stream of thick vapor before they take off.

CPEC, Pakistan Agriculture News
Four key areas under CPEC prioritised
January 20, 2019, 11:33 pm January 20, 2019 743
ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan on Friday prioritised four key areas under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) for the next couple of years and ordered the groundbreaking of at least three special economic zones (SEZs) before end-June this year.
He was presiding over a meeting here to review progress on the CPEC.
Minister for Planning, Development and Reforms Makhdoom Khusro Bakhtyar briefed the participants on the outcome of the 8th CPEC Joint Cooperation Committee (JCC) meeting and progress on the projects.
The prime minister gave targets for short- to mid-term phases, focusing on cooperation in industrial, socio-economic, agriculture and Gwadar. "It was decided to make the period as a phase of industrial cooperation, socioeconomic and agriculture sector development. Timelines for the development of prioritised SEZs were finalised to ensure groundbreaking in first half of 2019," an official statement said.
PM orders groundbreaking of three special economic zones by end of June
The meeting was told that four SEZs — Rashaki in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Dhabeji in Sindh and M-3 Faisalabad and one in Islamabad — had been planned for development in the first phase and three of them — Rashakai, Dhabeji and Faisalabad — would be ready for groundbreaking by June this year, starting with Rashakai in two to three months. However, IT SEZ in Islamabad would take more time for various reasons including but not limited to selection of its site and then land acquisition process.
The prime minister directed to make full use of upcoming visits of Chinese investors by explaining to them Pakistan's tax policies and available facilities and speedy processing of business proposals to market SEZs aligned with its development. He desired that ease of doing business should be improved immediately so as these could be shared with the Chinese business delegations. He "directed that a timeline-based policy on provision of utilities to SEZs be prepared at the earliest". The prime minister directed the Board of Investment's chairman to present comprehensive recommendations within four weeks on speedy development of SEZs.

The prime minister was informed that the meeting of the newly created Joint Working Group (JWG) on agriculture would meet on Feb 15 in Beijing. It was reported that the Chinese officials had raised questions over Pakistan's agriculture and the country's experts wondered why an agro-based economy did not have consistent crop patterns and output predictabilities.
The prime minister directed the relevant agencies and ministries to finalise a well researched agriculture sector road map before going to the JWG meeting next month. "Don't go unprepared" to the JWG, an official quoted the prime minister as saying.
Mr Khan directed that Pakistan side should finalise the road map for promoting agriculture sector, inviting Chinese companies to explore investment opportunities in Pakistan and leverage agro value chains.
The meeting decided to promote joint ventures in petrochemicals, iron & steel, food and agriculture. On the recommendations of the Planning Commission, the prime minister approved formation of a CPEC Business Advisory Council consisting of leading Pakistani business executives, heads of financial institutions and representatives of business chambers to create an interface with the private sector.
Mr Khan directed that that development of the corridor should continue with the priority to the development of its western route. He emphasised that infrastructure development needed a policy of pragmatism and due financial diligence and not on political considerations.
In the same spirit, a high-level committee, comprising ministers for planning, railways and finance, was formed to finalise modalities on Pakistan Railways ML-1 — the strategic project of the CPEC.
Informed sources said that some ministries had reservations over the Chinese financial and cost modelling of $8.2 billion ML-1 project — Karachi to Torkham border — and wanted some changes.

In the last month JCC meeting, the two sides had nevertheless agreed that "the project should be implemented in line with the Framework Agreement signed in May 2017".
The prime minister directed that the development of Gwadar should be planned as a smart port city to make it a transhipment and petrochemical hub. He called upon the participants to further expedite progress on various projects under the CPEC because their early completion would bring huge socio-economic opportunities to people.
PM Khan made it clear that early completion of the CPEC projects was in Pakistan's interest. He said Pakistan could greatly benefit from Chinese experience of bringing its people out of poverty traps and desired that poverty alleviation programmes should be based on multi-pronged schemes because BISP-like programmes could not go on forever.
The meeting that lasted about two hours reviewed overall progress on the CPEC, particularly in the areas of industrial development, — SEZs, ML-1 project, agriculture development, socio-economic development, infrastructure development and Gwadar development.

How to Contest a Parking Citation
Temporary Overnight Parking Permit
Annual Overnight Parking Permit
Holiday Parking
California Vehicle Section §40215 provides citizens with an opportunity to contest a parking citation, Per this code, there are three levels of contestment:
Initial Review:
The citation bail amount does not have to be paid to contest your citation at this level.
If you disagree with the parking citation that you received and would like to contest it, you have 21 days from the date the citation was issued, or within 14 days from the mailing of the 'Notice of Delinquent Parking Violation,' to request an Initial Review.
You may request an Initial Review by calling the '866' number on the bottom of the citation. Requests for Initial Reviews WILL NOT be accepted beyond the date prescribed by the California Motor Vehicle Code.
You may complete the Contest Form, attach all relevant information INCLUDING a copy of the citation and mail it to the address listed at the bottom of the citation. Or you may complete the entire process online. Click HERE to contest a parking citation by mailing a form or online.
Once received, an investigating officer will review the form along with any supporting documentation you have provided. After careful investigation, a written response will be mailed to the contestant, and a copy will be filed at Parking Citation Service Center. Please note, documents submitted by you cannot be returned.
Your Initial Review will be examined and investigated thoroughly, and a determination will be made, rendering one of the following decisions:
The citation was determined to be invalid and will be dismissed. If this is the decision, then no further action will be required on your part. You will receive written correspondence confirming the dismissal of the citation.
The citation was determined to be valid, and payment must be made in full. You will receive written correspondence notifying you of the decision and advising you that the citation must still be paid.
Administrative Hearing:
If you are dissatisfied with the results of the Initial Review, you may further contest the citation by requesting an Administrative Hearing. However, unlike the Initial Review, California State Law requires that you pay in advance, all fines that are owed on the citation before you can request an Administrative Hearing. Administrative Hearings must be requested within 21 days from the date the decision was reached on your Initial Review. If you fail to request an Administrative Hearing within the prescribed time, you will lose the opportunity to contest the citation further.
To request an Administrative Hearing, please contact Parking Citation Service Center at 866.450.2508 and request an Administrative Hearing request form. Complete and submit the form, along with a check or money order for the full amount of the parking violation penalty (ties), payable to the City of San Dimas.
IF YOU FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF LEVELS 1 and 2 IN THE ABOVE MANNER AND WITHIN THE PRESCRIBED TIME LIMITS, YOU WILL LOSE THE STATUTORY ABILITY TO CONTEST A NOTICE OF PARKING VIOLATION.
The Hearing Examiner must consider the results of the Initial Review, (Level 1) when rendering a final decision. Since the results of the Initial Review must be forwarded to the Hearing Examiner as part of the contestant's file, a hearing cannot be scheduled until the Initial Review is completed.
Once the request for an Administrative Hearing is completed and the parking penalty deposited, (within the prescribed time limit) the contestant will be notified of the hearing date, time and location. You may elect to attend the hearing in person; to do so, you must complete a Hearing Declaration Form. If you cannot attend the hearing in person, you may elect to have the Hearing Examiner render his decision based on the statement you submitted on your Initial Review Form, or you may submit a Written Declaration. You may also use the Written Declaration Form to add any additional information not included on your original Initial Review Form.
The final decision of the Administration Hearing may be delivered personally to the contestant by the Hearing Examiner or mailed to the contestant via First Class Mail. If the contestant prevails, the City of San Dimas will reimburse the contestant for any fines paid before the scheduling of the Administrative Hearing.
Note: If you are unable to attend the Administrative Hearing on the scheduled date, you may reschedule your hearing ONE TIME. To reschedule your hearing, please call Parking Citation Service Center Office at 866.450.2508. If you are not in attendance on the date of your rescheduled hearing, you will lose the opportunity to contest your parking citation, AND you will forfeit all bail amounts related to the citation you wish to contest.
Court Appeal:
If you are not satisfied with the decision of the Hearing Examiner, you may further contest the parking citation by filing an appeal at Pomona Municipal Court. You cannot appeal a parking citation if you have not first obtained the results from your Initial Review AND your Administrative Hearing. Furthermore, appeals MUST be made requested within 30 days from the date of the Hearing Examiner's decision. Requests for appeal must be done in person at Pomona Municipal Court, and the contestant will be required to pay a fee of $25.00 for the filing of the notice of appeal with the court.
If the contestant prevails in court, the City of San Dimas will reimburse the contestant for the $25.00 filing fee and will also refund any parking penalty (ties) paid by the Court's decision.
CONTESTANT STATEMENT OF RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
A hearing for parking citations is now, (by California law) a Civil Action. This means that you have the obligation to show by a preponderance of the evidence that the citation in question was not validly issued. The preponderance of the evidence means evidence, (as a whole) shows the fact which you seek is more probable than not. Such evidence may include, (but is not limited to) documents or the testimony of witnesses.
1. During the hearing, you will be asked to enter a plea. The plea may be…'admit Liability with explanation'…or…'deny liability'…The fine or any late penalties may be sustained or dismissed, depending on the evidence.
2. The original or any true copy of the citation containing all material information is…'prima facie'…evidence that the violation occurred. Prima facie means legally sufficient to establish a fact or a case unless disproved. The issuing officer is not required to be present at this hearing.
3. You have the right to present oral testimony and to call witnesses during the hearing. You also have the right to submit documentary evidence in support of your case.
4. If you desire to appeal the decision to the Court, you must file an appeal with the Court within 30 calendar days of the date of mailing of the decision and deposit a $25.00 fee with the Court. Your failure to timely appeal and pay the $25.00 appellate fee will result in the waiver of your right to appeal.
IF A NOTICE OF APPEAL OF THE DECISION OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE HEARING, (LEVEL 2) IS NOT FILED WITHIN THE 30 DAY TIME LIMIT, THE DECISION OF THE HEARING EXAMINER WILL BE DEEMED FINAL.

Q: How to serve static files saved in a docker volume with FastAPI? I've created two volumes, t21db for my SQLite DB and t21images for my images, in my FastAPI app im using app.mount to mount the location for the volume to retrieve the images, here's the code -
app = FastAPI()

app.add_middleware(
    CORSMiddleware,
    allow_origins=["*"],
    allow_credentials=True,
    allow_methods=["*"],
    allow_headers=["*"],
)

app.mount("/app/images", StaticFiles(directory="."), name="static") # <--- here, is this directory correct?

app.include_router(webapp, prefix='/api/v1/webapp', tags=["WebApp"])
app.include_router(webapptype, prefix='/api/v1/webapptype', tags=["WebAppType"])

I have an endpoint which uses a function to get the image URL's from the volume but this doesn't seem to be working at the moment as I'm getting a status code 404 back
def __get_url(self, image, request: Request):
    return request.url_for('static', path=f"app/images/{image}")

this is how I am running my container & mounting volumes to it -
docker run --mount source=t21db,target=/app/db --mount source=t21images,target=/app/images -p 3088:5000 t21

I was previously using /app/images path to retrieve images to encode but later changed that serving the image URL was more efficient
How can I get the correct volume path in my app to serve the static files?

A: i hope it'll helpfull,
what i using in mine without mounting directory in docker is
app.mount("/static", StaticFiles(directory="static"), name="static")
app.mount("/media", StaticFiles(directory="media"), name="media")

make sure you set directory correctly
and try
app.mount("/images", StaticFiles(directory="images"), name="images")

i even used traefik or nginx without mounting my statics or ... folder

A: Ok, so the solution is to add the path to the directory as the initial path param in app.mount
So this worked -
app.mount("/app/images", StaticFiles(directory="/apps/images"), name="static")

Chełmica Duża – wieś w Polsce położona w województwie kujawsko-pomorskim, w powiecie włocławskim, w gminie Fabianki.

W latach 1975–1998 miejscowość administracyjnie należała do województwa włocławskiego. Według Narodowego Spisu Powszechnego (III 2011 r.) liczyła 1226 mieszkańców. Jest drugą co do wielkości miejscowością gminy Fabianki.

W miejscowości funkcjonuje kąpielisko.

Historia
Najstarsza wzmianka o parafii Chełmica pochodzi z 1430 roku z informacją, że "rektorem kościoła w Chełmicy był Dobrogost".

W 1598 roku Chełmica Wielka była własnością Jana Czerskiego, a proboszczem parafii -Wojciech Cieśliński. Kościół nosił wezwanie św. Jakuba. W katalogu wizytacji kanonicznych parafii dekanatu bobrownickiego, przeprowadzonych w latach 1639-1647 pojawia się informacja, że właścicielem Chełmicy był Franciszek Czerski, a kościół był "drewniany i stary, pod wezwaniem św. Jakuba", zaś parafia była bez proboszcza, ponieważ ostatni opuścił ją ze względu na niezgodę z kolatorem i ubóstwo. W kościele nie było nabożeństw - chyba że "przyjechał jakiś zakonnik", zaś stan parafii "oceniano jako najlichszy". Z kart wizytacji datowanych na lata 1710-1711 o parafii w Chełmicy dowiadujemy się, że "przed kilkoma laty" kościół z drewna został odbudowany dzięki inicjatywie wojewodziny malborskiej "z Dębna Łosiowej". W 1725 r. podano, że "kaplicą" w Chełmicy "opiekował się proboszcz ze Szpetala".

Chełmica Duża była ośrodkiem dóbr ziemskich, które obejmowały liczne folwarki. W 1922 r. dobra zostały podzielone na kilka odrębnych majątków: Chełmica, Wichowo, Łochocin, Okrągła. Urodził się tu Andrzej Pałucki, były prezydent Włocławka (dwie kadencje w latach: 2006-2014).

Zabytki
Według rejestru zabytków NID na listę zabytków wpisane są:

• The Limits to Indemnification
The Limits to Indemnification
by Nicholas T. Maxwell | Jan 26, 2022 | Business Litigation
Indemnity is a hotly negotiated aspect of commercial contracts. The goal of indemnity is to place various risks with the party best equipped to respond to it. These risks can be transactional costs or those associated with third-party claims, but there are limits in place that protect indemnifiers.
Negligence or Gross Negligence
While indemnification includes certain liability protections, these primarily require that the indemnified party take appropriate care. In a legal sense, this means it must take every step to minimize accidents in carrying out its duties according to the terms of the contract. Taking proper care is a necessity in contractual relationships, and if a party does not take those steps, it cannot maintain its indemnity. If an indemnitor is aware of evidence indicating that an indemnified party abjectly failed to properly abide by its contractual duty, that indemnitor may have a remedy at law against the indemnified party.
Bad Faith Negotiation
"Bad faith" refers to contractual negotiations where one party does not intend to fulfill some – or all – of its obligations. If there is any evidence that one party negotiated a contract in bad faith, the protections and duties of indemnity do not apply. In fact, it's possible you can void the contract entirely.
We wrote about improper use of products in a previous post on product liability. This same concept applies in the analysis of indemnification matters. If an indemnified party improperly uses resources, voiding indemnity may not apply if there is an accident or lawsuit. However, the contract should dictate the proper use of any help in clear terms to be safe.
Necessary Exceptions to Indemnity
Often, when parties negotiate the wording of indemnification clauses, the parties are sensitive to defining what constitutes a risk. Providing indemnity protections puts an indemnitor in a precarious position, one against which s/he has every right to take protective litigative actions. The natural exceptions to indemnity revolve around the basic duties of contract law. If a party ignores the terms of the contract, you do not need to protect them with indemnity.

Trees are the answer. This slogan was first advocated by Dr Patrick Moore, one the original founders of Greenpeace. Patrick is now head of Greenspirit, a Canadian pro- forestry environmental organisation. The slogan has now been adopted by the Society of American Foresters.
In 1965 I was appointed as a scientist to a new Forest Research Institute group the Economics of Silviculture. We had the research objective of improving the profitability of plantations, especially plantations of radiata pine. A management principle slowly emerged − what a forest manager did, or did not do, at the time of planting or within the first few years, very largely determined the size and quality of trees finally harvested. An important implication is that, when making decisions about early stand treatment, today's market is almost irrelevant. The only market that really matters is that which exists on the day the trees are harvested.
In the early 1970s there was a small planting boom. However, New Zealand already had sufficient plantations by around 1940, provided that harvested stands were replanted, to provide for the nation's wood needs for at least the next century. Essentially the wood from every hectare planted since 1940 was for export. I did my doctorate in the early 1970s on the question of what would be the possible markets for our plantation wood in the year 2000 when forests planted and tended in the early 1970s would be harvested. Fortunately, I resisted the temptation to predict a future wood shortage. Instead, my projection was based on the same reasoning as to why I was looking at the year 2000 in the first place. I eventually realised that the predetermination principle we had found for radiata pine applied to all trees − it probably applies to all biological systems. As almost all the world's trees are slower growing than ours, then almost all the trees that New Zealand would have to compete with in export markets were already in existence. Their wood quality had already been determined even though they were probably unaware of this. My 1975 thesis was mostly an in-depth analysis of the world's forest resource and what would be its future wood quality. My analysis suggested that most of the world's exploitable virgin indigenous forest would have gone by the year 2000. The forest that had regenerated, or had been planted, would produce high quality framing timber but almost no clearwood. Our radiata pine would only produce a marginal quality framing timber but, when producing clear wood, radiata pine ranked with the world's best conifers. The biggest challenge was how to convince growers to prune and thin at the right time when there was no market for pruned logs, and no market could exist until trees that had been timely pruned were harvested – a classic Catch 22 dilemma.
By the year 2000 it looked as if my 1975 projections were on target. However, since 2000 the global forestry scene has been a catastrophe. Here are a few examples. In New Zealand the average price in the last quarter of 2009 for radiata pine P1 logs, the best quality pruned logs, was only 55 per cent of the inflation adjusted price in the third quarter of year 2000 − a price of $173 a unit, inflation adjusted, becomes $220. In the fourth quarter of 2009 the average price for P1 logs was only $121 a unit. I almost cannot believe that this could have happened. But this disaster in forestry is not limited to New Zealand, it is a worldwide phenomenon. In North America the industrial conifer wood production in 2009 was only 57 per cent of that in the year 2005. The annual production of 74 billion board feet had fallen to only 42 billion board feet in 2009. The international price of wood again also declined. Using a North American example again the United States composite lumber price reached a high in August 2004 of US$474 per 1,000 board feet. Since then the price has steadily declined. It reached a low of US$190 per 1,000 board feet in January 2009 when the 2004 price, adjusted for US inflation, was $534. The low 2009 price was therefore only 36 per cent of the price for the same grade in 2004. The price has since improved slightly – in September 2009 it was US$240 per 1,000 board feet. I am sorry to have used variable time periods and units but I have quoted directly from publications that have chosen periods of greatest difference.
Why has the world market for wood so dramatically collapsed, especially when we know that wood is the world's only renewable and sustainable raw material? Wood is very versatile and requires little external energy for its manufacture. It is impossible to name a more environmentally friendly alternative. Other than carbon sequestration, the contribution that wood could make is almost totally ignored. Similarly ignored are the other benefits of forests such as its soil stability and water holding ability. I recently gave a presentation to a visiting group from one of the Timber Investment Management Organisations (TIMO) that have invested in our plantations. I began with what I thought was an excellent opening statement 'Plantation forestry is the most capital intensive industry in the world'. I was to go on to say that profit was therefore very important to forestry investors. Then what happened was what every public speaker dreads most − their opening statement being challenged. The head of the TIMO delegation interrupted me. 'That's not quite right you know, managed indigenous forests are more capital intensive'. Of course he was correct but few countries, if any, use the compounded future growing costs to determine royalties when harvesting indigenous forests. Wood from these forests is either free or made available at token royalties.
New Zealand plantation owners expect a stumpage that covers the compounded costs of growing the wood. Most of the world's industrial wood still comes from indigenous forests. The FAO estimates that about 65 per cent of the world's industrial wood comes from non-plantation sources, virgin or managed indigenous forests. If we consider just the supply of sawlogs my estimate is that about 85 per cent still comes from non-plantation sources. When it comes to wood exports, we are not competing on a level playing field. Evidence of just how unlevel the playing field has become is illustrated by a breakdown of logging costs of Siberian logs exported to China supplied by David Janett of Forest Management Limited. In the detailed cost analysis there is no charge for stumpage or royalties. Standing trees were being supplied at no cost and nothing was being collected to cover future costs. Is it any wonder that Russia is now proposing a log export tax? The global market is awash with subsidised low value but generally high quality wood. This is a position that cannot last, but how long can it continue – 5, 10, 20 years? My estimate is certainly less than 20 years, maybe 10 years, possibly even 5 years. There are two other factors that have contributed to the demise of wood.
First is the environmental movement. A greater public awareness of the environment probably began with the 1962 publication of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring. At first I was delighted. Foresters were the original conservationists. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries these foresters, and long before conservation became fashionable, raised awareness of the need to conserve and manage forests. Most Forest Services began in the first two decades of the 20th century. But what happened was a disaster. The good work of the early foresters in conserving and managing forests has rarely, if ever, been recognised. The modern environmental movement had to find a target to increase its status as well as attract funding. The forestry sector, especially tree harvesting, was presented as forest destroyers. We have British Columbia being labelled as the 'Brazil of the North' with plantations being claimed to be biological desserts. Both claims are blatantly untrue. Forest services could not be trusted, and in many cases they were discredited or, even worse, disestablished. Instead of moving to other targets such as agriculture, which almost invariably was established on permanently trashed indigenous forest land, environmental organisations made even greater demands for more concessions. In New Zealand the last Labour government stopped the very responsible sustainable indigenous management on the West Coast. Prime Minister Helen Clark and Minister of Forests Pete Hodgson did not even visit the operation. We expect the rest of the world to responsibly manage their indigenous forests yet we abandoned our most successful example.
But is not the Green Party now supporting forestry? Well, yes and no. The recent article in Tree Grower by their forestry spokesperson Catherine Delahunty was most enthusiastic about the potential of forests to sequester carbon. But the article said almost nothing about the other, and probably far more significant, forestry benefits. Would forest investors be interested in investing in trees just for their carbon sequestration credits? Very few I suspect, especially as the buyer of any carbon credits would want to exercise management rights especially over stocking rates and time of final harvesting.
The second factor involves the actions of the forestry sector. These have not always been helpful. Instead of co-operating, nations have too often exploited the misfortunes of others. A wood market developed by one company is undercut by another offering a lower cost product – the only real winner being the wood buyer. I am especially critical of how the forest industry handled the demand for certified wood. Fearing protests by environmental activists large northern hemisphere outlets, such as Home Depot and B & Q, demanded that wood products come only from sustainable certified forests. Why did the forestry sector not make the requirement for sustainable certified wood conditional that the same requirements of environmental friendliness and sustainability be required for all wood's competitors?
Events of this last decade have been most depressing. We might have expected that the environmental advantages offered by forestry and wood to be better understood by those who regard themselves as environmentalists, by the politicians and by the public. All tree growers however should take comfort in the knowledge that the present nightmare cannot last. We cannot predict when, but it will eventually happen. When it does – trees will be the answer.
In his May article 'Trees are the answer' Wink Sutton suggests that the Green Party is only interested in forestry to provide carbon sinks. However, the detailed Green Party Forestry policy recognises the many values that forests represent: ecological, recreational, spiritual, social, medicinal and cultural.
Forests are a key part of our economic vision for New Zealand. We proposed a detailed forestry package as part of our second Green New Deal package to stimulate the planting of 665,000 hectares of new forest in the next 10 years – a proposal that would create thousands of jobs in addition to realising economic, social and environmental benefits.
One of the key principles of our policy is 'to significantly expand both our protection forests and our plantation forests in diversity of species, and to manage and use them sustainably.' New Zealand has had a large monoculture forestry system which must change to meet modern environmental standards and new market challenges.We believe that the greatest benefits to the sector will be achieved by moving beyond the export of raw radiata pine logs.
Broadening the diversity of plantation species, enhancing eco-branding through improved environmental management and certification schemes, and encouraging value-added production and refinement of sustainable forest products are all essential to sustainably grow forestry.
The Green Party believes that planting trees is vital for many reasons, including ecosystem protection, sustainable products and building material alternatives, and carbon sequestration. We work actively to support the development of sustainable forestry in New Zealand, and we welcome contact and ideas from foresters so we can best support policy, legislation and campaigns that will allow sustainable forestry to flourish.
Catherine Delahunty MP, Forestry spokesperson Green Party of Aotearoa New Zealand, August 2010.
The environmentally minded are extremely disappointed that so little was achieved at Copenhagen. Given that all the major players were politicians it was naïve to expect an international agreement to limit greenhouse gas emissions. Government leaders, especially of democratic developed economies, were unable to make commitments that could reduce their nation's living standards and increased costs. Even less acceptable was the proposal to transfer money to developing economies whose government may be corrupt, incompetent or not democratic.
Governments universally strive for growth. Economic growth increases both employment and taxation. In contrast, contraction of the economy increases unemployment and decreases taxation income but also increases the pressure for greater social spending especially for unemployment benefits.
As the principle reason for growth is consumption we should not be surprised at the failure of Copenhagen. No responsible government is prepared to commit political suicide by agreeing to anything that reduces consumption.
Another complication is the sensitive issue of population. The global population is nearing seven billion and is increasing by about 85 million every year.The world cannot support the world's current population, especially its expectation of increasing standards of living. Where there is little or no social security, having many children is a guarantee of a work force as well as support in old age. Increasing living standards helps reduce population growth as wealthy countries or the wealthy in poorer countries have low birth rates. The population issue is a Catch 22 aspect of the consumption dilemma.
I may be one of many who are not convinced that climate change is the result of our continual atmospheric release of greenhouse gases, but I am certain that the greatest threat to human survival is our overwhelming reliance on fossil fuels, especially oil. We may have already used half of the world's readily available oil reserves. The world will also face increasing shortages of other minerals and materials.
The world must move to renewable resources. Wood is our most renewable and our most versatile material. The importance of forests is not that they sequester carbon but, if responsibly managed, forests are the source of wood. Forests and wood use should be promoted both as a substitute for energy requiring materials and as an energy source. If the world is really serious about reducing carbon dioxide, we should at least be encouraging wood use as well as taxing, and certainly not subsidising, high energy requiring and net carbon emitting materials such as concrete and steel.
An increased wood use may be desirable but unless there is an immediate and radical change in attitude by both government and environmental organisations a greater wood use is most unlikely. As the global price of wood has fallen dramatically, wood processors round the world have increasingly gone out of business. In New Zealand the first decade of this century has seen plantation establishment spectacularly decline. New planting has almost ceased and as existing plantations are being cleared for conversion to dairy farms.
Was anyone at Copenhagen advancing an increased wood use and better forest management as a solution to the world's major problems? I very much doubt it − they got very little media coverage if they did.

Q: Flutter Operation was rejected while querying the subchild of doc in firestore I'm working on an eCommerce app and working on a coupon system while creating a query I'm getting this error every time.
FirebaseException ([cloud_firestore/failed-precondition] Operation was rejected because the system is not in a state required for the operation's execution. If performing a query, ensure it has been indexed via the Firebase console.)
I tried to search the error but couldn't find the exact solution as some answers suggest that I have to create a collection index which I did but still getting the same error.

This how my query looks like:-
Future<void> fetchCouponCode(
    String couponCode,
    String userId,
    String priductCategory,
    String productIds,
) async {
   if (couponCode == null) {
      return;
   }
   if (userId == null) {
      return;
   }
   print(couponCode);
   var today = DateTime.now();
   await FirebaseFirestore.instance
      .collection('coupons')
      .where('code', isEqualTo: couponCode)
      .where('product_categories', isEqualTo: priductCategory)
      .where('customer_email', isEqualTo: 'all')
      .where('product_ids', arrayContainsAny: [productIds])
      // .where('constraints.BagConstraints.min_item', isGreaterThan: 1)
      .where('is_enabled', isEqualTo: true)
      .where('valid_from',
        isGreaterThanOrEqualTo: today)
      .get()
      .then((QuerySnapshot querySnapshot) {
          print('=========object=======');
          querySnapshot.docs.forEach((element) {
              print(element.get('discount'));
          });

       });
  }

This is how my coupon structure looks like
   var uuid = Uuid();
  {
    'coupon_id': uuid.v4(),
    'code': 'V710OFF',
    'description': 'Summer Sale',
    'discount': 40,
    'minimum_dicount': 30,
    'maximum_discount': 150,
    'discount_type': 'percent',
    'product_ids': ['3'],
    'date_created': DateTime.now(),
    'exclude_product_ids': 2,
    'product_categories': 't-shirts',
    'exclude_product_categories': '',
    'customer_email': 'all',
    'constraints': {
      'commonConstraints': {
        'uniqueId': uuid.v4(),
        'device_type': 'ios',
        'valid_from': DateTime.now(),
        'valid_until': DateTime.now().add(Duration(days: 10)),
        'usage_limit': 1,
        'usage_limit_per_user': 1,
        'total_usage': 10
      },
      'BagConstraints': {
        'uniqueId': uuid.v4(),
        'min_value': 120,
        'max_value': 3000,
        'min_item': 1,
        'max_item': 4,
      }
    },
    'is_enabled': true
  }

I need to check if the coupon is invalid date range. So shall I do inside querySnapshot.docs.forEach as this can be done but what if I have a similar issue with another collection. How do I query third-level docs or this can't be achieved right now?? Also I go through firestore documentation and youtube channel but couldn't find the solution
And this is how I query coupon
fetchCouponCode(
    'V710OFF', currentFirebaseUser.uid, 't-shirts', '3');

A: The index you've created won't work for the query you are trying to perform. Try creating this index:

Collection ID
Field Indexed
Type

coupons
product_ids
Arrays

code
Ascending

customer_email
Ascending

is_enabled
Ascending

prodcut_categories
Ascending

valid_from
Ascending

Alone in the Dark (, абр. AitD) — гра жанру survival horror, розроблена та випущена Infogrames в 1992 році. Перша гра серії Alone in the Dark.

Девіз гри — «A Virtual Adventure Game Inspired by the Work of H.P. Lovecraft ()».

Ігровий процес

Гравець керує героєм, чоловіком або жінкою, що досліджує маєток, захоплений злими силами, бореться з чудовиськами і шукає підказки й предмети для просування сюжетом. Гра відбувається в перспективі від третьої особи, керування здійснюється з клавіатури. Фони в Alone in the Dark двовимірні, натомість протагоніст, вороги та інтерактивні об'єкти є тривимірними моделями. Кожна локація маєтку складається з кількох сцен, які демонструються з різних ракурсів.

Головний герой володіє запасом здоров'я та інвентарем, куди може скласти 20 предметів. Якщо запас здоров'я вичерпаний, або персонаж знерухомів, гра завершується поганим фіналом — сили зла захоплюють його тіло і вириваються з маєтку. Поповнюється він аптечками, схованими в кількох місцях.

Усі дії здійснюються через меню, де розташований перелік дій та інвентар. Основні дії це, залежно від контексту: битися/стріляти/використати; відкрити/обшукати/перезарядити; закрити/кинути; штовхати/покласти. Після вибору кожної дії необхідно натиснути клавішу «дія» (пробіл) та напрям, якщо дія спрямована.

Знаходячи різні предмети, гравець застосовує їх для подолання перешкод. Так, ключі відкривають двері, а ліхтар освітлює темні приміщення. Іноді необхідно поєднувати кілька предметів, до прикладу, щоб запалити ліхтар, його слід заправити паливом і запалити запальничкою. Існують марні предмети, від яких немає жодної користі, та навіть шкідливі. Наприклад, прочитавши окультну книгу, персонаж може зазнати шоку і втратити частину здоров'я.

У боротьбі можна використовувати кулаки й ноги та знайдену старовинну зброю: лук, рушницю, револьвер, шаблю, кинджал і меч. В рукопашному бою герой може завдати три види ударів перед собою: правою чи лівою рукою і ногою. Використовуючи вогнепальну зброю, персонаж мусить спершу прицілитися стрілками. Запас стріл чи набоїв при цьому обмежений. Також у ворога можна жбурнути будь-який предмет з інвентарю, що завдасть йому ушкоджень, залежно від розміру предмета. Деякі вороги, такі як привиди, невразливі, від ним можливо тільки тікати.

Сюжет
В 1924 році Джеремі Гартвуд (), знаменитий художник та власник луїзіанського маєтку Дерсето, покінчив з собою. Його смерть виглядає підозрілою, але нікого не дивує, адже Дерсето володіє стійкою репутацією місця, в якому оселилася зла сила. Справу було закрито поліцією та усіма забуто. Гравець приймає на себе роль Едварда Карнбі () — приватного детектива, котрого наймає торговець антикваріатом, або Емілі Гартвуд (), племінниці Джеремі. Обох цікавить записка, схована за піаніно в будинку загиблого, тому що вона пояснює суїцид Джеремі.

Протагоніст прибуває до маєтку ввечері та швидко піднімається на мансарду, де знаходить записку. Прочитане здається маячнею, але тут же у вікно застрибує чудовисько, а з-під підлоги вривається ходячий мрець (гравець може заздалегідь заблокувати їм шлях). Герой поспішає до виходу, але двері самі собою зачиняються і він лишається один в будинку. Він вирішує будь-що дізнатися що там відбувається, для чого розшукує записки Джеремі. Відшукуючи корисні предмети, як то запальнички, ключі або зброю, герой долає чудовиськ і привидів, які населяють маєток вночі, та розшукує вказівки на істину. Він розкриває, що будинок зведений над підземеллями, де пірат Єзеїл Прегц здійснював ритуали служіння силам зла для збільшення своєї удачі й продовження життя. Хоча пірата було повішено, його дух слугами Єзиїла було вселено до старого дерева в підземеллях. Гартвуд покінчив із собою, щоб не дати духу пірата вселитися в його тіло, як це сталося з будівельником маєтку Ілією Пікфордом, який загинув у пожежі. Герой усвідомлює, що якщо сили зла переможуть його, то пірат вселиться в нього самого.

У бібліотеці вдається добути талісман, причетний до жахіть в маєтку. Вивчивши записки і книги, протагоніст визначає, що його слід покласти на вівтар, щоб втихомирити зло. Спустившись до підвалу, він виявляє тунелі, а за ними стародавнє підземелля з вівтарем і деревом. Поклавши талісман на вівтар, герой підпалює дерево і повертається до будинку. Тепер двері відкриваються, надворі виявляється ранок. Герой сідає в таксі, але коли водій обертається, виявляється, що це скелет, який сміється на камеру.

Оцінки й відгуки

Гра здобула загальне визнання критиками. Чарльз Ардай з Computer Gaming World похвалив гру, відмітивши численні точки перспективи, та заявив, що жодна попередня гра не змушувала його «лякатися від найменшого звуку… Я відчуваю, ніби був у справжньому будинку». Він описав гру як «справді диявольську симуляцію, насичену злими образами та несподіваними поворотами». У тому ж номері журналістка під псевдонімом Скорпія була критичнішою, найбільшим недоліком вказавши магічні книги, що вбивають персонажа при спробі прочитати їх, про що немає жодних попереджень. На її думку, Alone in the Dark — одна з доволі акуратних ігор з певними дратівливими недоліками. «В ній створено гарну атмосферу з використання лавкрафтівських елементів, а зміна ракурсу є новим та ефектним доповненням», тому це «гарний відступ від звичайного бігання в пригодницьких іграх». У 1994 році редакція Computer Gaming World визнала дискетну версію гри найкращою в жанрі жахів за багато років, а дискову версію похвалила за «кращу анімацію та більше моторошних звуків».

Оцінюючи версію для 3DO, GamePro описали її як «незграбну, напівреалістичну гру», посилаючись на обмежений лінійний дизайн рівнів, надмірно повільний рух протагоніста та «безглуздих, вертких монстрів». Натомість було схвалено похмурі звукові ефекти та зміни ракурсу. Electronic Gaming Monthly прокоментували: «Чудово переносячи ПК-тайтл, ця гра має чудову графіку та звук… для шанувальників неквапного геймплею це саме те, що потрібно». Next Generation повідомили про 3DO-версію гри, що це «витончена суміш моторошної музики, похмурих послідовностей анімацій та наповненої напругою сюжетної лінії, що створює атмосферу напруженого жаху, додаючи цікавий штрих до стандартної графічної пригоди».

За даними французької газети «Libération», станом на січень 2000 року було продано 2,5 млн копій Alone in the Dark. У 2009 році журнал «Empire» включив Alone in the Dark до переліку 100 найвидатніших відеоігор усіх часів.

Motion in a Straight Line
From the above acceleration-time graph of a moving particle. The velocity in initial 30 s is
Option 3 : 750 m/s
Correct option-3
Concept:-
The acceleration-time graph is nothing but a graph plotted between acceleration and time axes.
It is used to determine the change in velocity in the given interval of time.
In the acceleration vs time graph on the x-axis, you have the time taken by the object and on the y-axis acceleration of the object.
The acceleration time graph is used to find the change in velocity of a moving particle for a given period of time and
It can be determined by just finding the area under the curve.
To understand the acceleration vs time graph you must have an idea about basic terminologies.
Acceleration:- It measures the ratio of the change in velocity in the given time interval. Its SI unit of the acceleration is m/s2
Velocity:- The velocity of an object is defined as the ratio of the change in the position of the object in the given interval of time. Its SI unit is m/s.
Time period:- The time period is defined as the interval of the time given to perform the specific event.
Calculation:-
Given-
Time interval, t = 30 s.
Velocity v, of a moving particle from t = 0 to t = 30 s will be equal to area under a-t graph OAB.
i.e. v = area of triangle OAB + area of rectangle ABED
\(\Rightarrow v=\left( \frac{1}{2}\times 10\times 30+20\times 30 \right)m/s=750m/s\)
\(\therefore v=750m/s\)
Hence, option-3 is the correct answer.
In physics, graphs are the essential components in the interpretation and explanation of physical phenomena.
The most basic that we handled in many physical quantities like speed, angular movement, acceleration and constant speed.
They may be simple, but they are the basis for understanding other graphs such as sound waves or the behavior of electromagnetic forces.
Graphs are not only very important in physics, they also play a very crucial role in the field involving mathematics and numbers,
In fact graphs is the best that human beings could have shown in the world of physics and mathematics , as well as its areas at the end.
The area under the time acceleration-time graph gives the change in velocity of the object in the given interval of time.
This means that area under the curve of the acceleration time graph is equal to change in the velocity of the object in the given interval of time period.
