The Final Problem

"**The Final Problem**" is a short story by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. In it Sherlock Holmes and Professor Moriarty die in the Reichenbach Falls.

The author used this plot as a device to kill Holmes. Later, pressed by public demand, Holmes was shown to have survived the fall.

"The Adventure of The Final Problem" is the original title of the short story by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. It appears in book form as part of the collection _The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes_. It is the only Conan Doyle story to include the apparent death of Sherlock Holmes. It is also the only one in which Moriarty actually appears instead of just being talked about.
Sanctuary city

A **sanctuary city** is a city that does not help its country's immigration police.

Sanctuary cities say they wish to cut down fear of deportation and possible family breakups with people who are in a country illegally. That's so that such people may be willing to report a crime and send their children to school.

Some states, such as Alabama, Iowa, Mississippi, Georgia, Missouri and Florida do not allow sanctuary cities. Others, such as Connecticut, Rhode Island, Illinois New York, Colorado and California allow sanctuary cities.

In early 2018, a Chicago federal judge said that the Trump administration could _not_ withhold public safety grants to sanctuary cities. Those decisions were seen as a setback to the Trump administration efforts for helping authorities police illegal immigrants. The issue of legality for such actions remain in the context of the expected second presidency of Donald Trump.
Rafting

**Rafting** is an outdoor sport in which a person uses an inflatable raft to navigate a river or other body of water. This is often done on rough water. This usually requires teamwork. Rafting is a dangerous sport. People can die while rafting. Rafting is also a competitive sport.

## History

Rafting goes back to 1811 when the first attempt to go on the Snake River was planned. With no training, the river was too difficult and dangerous.

## Classes of water

The International Scale of River Difficulty use six grades of difficulty to describe rivers for white water rafting. The scale ranges from simple to very dangerous and potential death or serious injuries.

- **Class 1:** Very small rough areas, might require slight maneuvering. (Skill level: Very basic)
- **Class 2:** Some rough water, maybe some rocks, might require some maneuvering. (Skill level: Basic paddling skill)
- **Class 3:** Small waves, maybe a small drop, but no very dangerous. May require significant maneuvering. (Skill level: Some experience in rafting)
- **Class 4:** Whitewater, medium waves, maybe rocks, maybe a considerable drop, sharp maneuvers may be needed.(Skill level: Exceptional rafting experience)
- **Class 5:** Whitewater, large waves, large volume, possibility of large rocks and hazards, possibility of a large drop, requires precise maneuvering. (Skill level: Full mastery of rafting)
- **Class 6:** Class 6 rapids are considered to be so dangerous that they are effectively unnavigable on a reliably safe basis. Rafters can expect a lot of whitewater, huge waves, huge rocks and hazards, and/or substantial drops that will have severe impacts beyond the structural capacities and impact ratings of almost all rafting equipment. Traversing a Class 6 rapid has a dramatically increased likelihood of ending in serious injury or death compared to lesser classes. (Skill level: Full mastery of rafting, and even then it may not be safe
Doom 64

***Doom 64*** is a video game that first came out only on the Nintendo 64, but can now be played on today's video game consoles. It is a direct sequel to _Doom 2_, making it the third part of the _Doom_ story. This is ironic because the story of _Doom 3_ is not related to _Doom_ or _Doom 2_, but it is a reboot, which means it is a new start to the Doom story.

_Doom 64_ has all the same weapons and monsters from _Doom 2_, but it has a few more new types of monsters and a new weapon, the Unmaker. The weapons and monsters look a little different from the earlier games, but there are fewer differences than in _Doom 3_. Other than the new graphics and new weapon, the gameplay was not much different from the earlier Doom games. It came out in 1997, but the game did not sell well because many popular FPS games came out that same year, including _GoldenEye 007_, _Quake II_, _Turok: Dinosaur Hunter_, and _Star Wars: Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight_. However, the game does have a cult following and fans had made unlicensed mods on the PC and other video game consoles. Due to its popularity, Bethesda announced during Nintendo Direct 2019 that it would sell the game digitally on the Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Steam on November 22, 2019. However, it was delayed until March 20, 2020, so that it could be sold the same day as _Doom Eternal_, the sequel to _Doom (2016)_. It was the same game, but the lighting of the game was fixed, which was a major criticism of the N64 version of the game.

Mystic, Connecticut

**Mystic** is a U.S. village and census-designated place (CDP) in Groton and Stonington, Connecticut. Mystic has no independent government because it is not a municipality in the state of Connecticut.

Historically, Mystic was a leading seaport of the area. The story of Mystic's nautical background is told at Mystic Seaport, the nation's largest maritime museum, which has preserved a number of sailing ships, such as the whaling ship _Charles W. Morgan_. The village is located on the Mystic River, which flows into Long Island Sound, giving access to the sea. The Mystic River Bascule Bridge crosses the river in the center of the village.  According to the Mystic River Historical Society, the name "Mystic" comes from the Pequot words "_missi-tuk_" as describing a large river whose waters are driven into waves by tides or wind. The population was 4,348 at the 2020 census.

Reboot (fiction)

A **reboot** is a new start on a fictional universe that already exists. Some of the same themes may exist, but the story of the reboot is unrelated to earlier parts of the story. An example of this is the movie _Batman Begins_. Even though it is set in the Batman universe, the story has no relation to any of the earlier Batman movies made by Tim Burton and Joel Schumacher. In video games, an example of this is _DmC: Devil May Cry_. Even though the game is still about a half-demon named Dante, like in the first game, the game's story has no relation to the earlier _Devil May Cry_ games, and Dante in DmC has a very different look and personality from the earlier Dante.

A reboot is different from a remake because a remake is a retelling of a story that already exists. For example, the James Bond movie _Never Say Never Again_ is a remake of _Thunderball_. _Never Say Never Again_ is a retelling same story as _Thunderball_, but it is only a little different. In video games, an example of a remake is _Metroid: Zero Mission_, which has the same story as the first _Metroid_ game, but it has more detailed graphics, new Power Suit abilities, and an entirely new area that is playable after the part of the game where the first game ended.
