A set of points in the plane is called disharmonic, if the ratio of any two distances between the points is between $100/101$ and $101/100$, or at least $100$ or at most $1/100$. Is it true that for any distinct points $A_1,A_2,\ldots,A_n$ in the plane it is always possible to find distinct points $A_1',A_2',\ldots, A_n'$ that form a disharmonic set of points, and moreover $A_i, A_j$ and $A_k$ are collinear in this order if and only if $A_i', A_j'$ and $A_k'$ are collinear in this order (for all distinct $1 \le i,j,k\le n$?

With about six hours left on the van ride home from vacation, Wendy looks for something to do. She starts working on a project for the math team. There are sixteen students, including Wendy, who are about to be sophomores on the math team. Elected as a math team officer, one of Wendy's jobs is to schedule groups of the sophomores to tutor geometry students after school on Tuesdays. The way things have been done in the past, the same number of sophomores tutor every week, but the same group of students never works together. Wendy notices that there are even numbers of groups she could select whether she chooses $4$ or $5$ students at a time to tutor geometry each week: \begin{align*}\dbinom{16}4&=1820,\\\dbinom{16}5&=4368.\end{align*} Playing around a bit more, Wendy realizes that unless she chooses all or none of the students on the math team to tutor each week that the number of possible combinations of the sophomore math teamers is always even. This gives her an idea for a problem for the $2008$ Jupiter Falls High School Math Meet team test: \[\text{How many of the 2009 numbers on Row 2008 of Pascal's Triangle are even?}\] Wendy works the solution out correctly. What is her answer?

Through a random point $C_1$ from the edge $DC$ of the regular tetrahedron $ABCD$ is drawn a plane, parallel to the plane $ABC$.
