I think it all depends on what you mean by "master the trainer kite"
interpretation 1: You learn to fly the kite, can control it, can make it do figure 8s, can launch and land with it.
interpretation 2: You can do everything in #1, but you can also fly the kite with your eyes closed for several minutes. You can fly the kite with one hand while holding a conversation with a beautiful woman. You can spin around with the kite above you. you can pass the bar behind your back without dropping the kite. You can run around with the kite in one hand, let go of it, spin 360 degrees and catch the bar again.
most people choose route #1. This is sufficient. It teaches you how to fly a kite. I believe this is what EvanOR is talking about. However, if you can do #2, it will help you considerably.
So, Jay83, it's up to you. If you're just gonna fool around with a trainer for a few days, no, it's not worth buying one. better off just borrow one for a day and then spend the money on lessons. if you want to get the most out of your lessons, commit to mastering that trainer. really mastering it. I'm serious about the eyes closed thing.
I learned to kiteboard on a 2 line ram-air foil. If you dropped it in the water, your session was over and it was time to swim. For that reason, I spent months with the trainer and got insanely good at it. When it got time to get in the water, I never dropped the kite...Trainers were crucial back then, because you wouldn't dare get in the water without stellar kite control skills. (esp cause there were no lessons or jet skis to come to your aid). Nowadays, the new kites relaunch and the lessons are awesome, so you can learn those same kite control skills on the water with a real kite.
So, in response to your question about KWS saying to get a kite and WOW saying you don't need one? they're both right. You'll maximize your lessons if you practice with a trainer first, but you don't need to. Just remember, if a lesson is 6 hours and you're a rockstar on land, then you end up with say 5.5 hours of water time. If you suck on land and have to learn to fly the trainer, then you have say 4 hours of water time.
so, if you end up borrowing a trainer, fly it with your eyes closed with one hand. it's the most valuable practice the trainer can give you IMHO.

MinamisanrikuThats the town that has half its residents missing.....about 9500 unaccounted for. The shape of the bay funnels the water. It probably had a higher tsunami than places with straight coasts.
Quote from: DrRox on March 12, 2011, 06:58:57 PMMinamisanrikuThats the town that has half its residents missing.....about 9500 unaccounted for. The shape of the bay funnels the water. It probably had a higher tsunami than places with straight coasts.Japan reported about 1000 confirmed dead. I suspect the amount to be more.. i think it will reach up to even 2000 to 3000 deaths. It breaks my heart, to see the tsunami coming in and those who were left to fend for their lives. Wasn't there supposed to be tsunami warning system...?
The height of the waves was 10 meters -- about 5 stories high, there wouldn't be much left standing, and truthfully I am not surprised of the number missing.It's hard to tell yet whether the loss of life may reach the levels of the Great Tsunami of 2004, and I pray that it does not, given the effects of a close-in epicenter (closer to the shoreline than the Sumatra earthquake) and the fact that relatively few coastal residents would have had time to flee far enough inland or high enough to avoid the wave crests.The one planning weakness I'm sensing in all of the coverage is a better understanding of the effects of a combined great earthquake and tsunami, including the impact on nuclear energy facilities. You can be sure that is going to get a lot of attention worldwide, and that future facilities are going to need better fail safe mechanisms to account for that risk.I lived less than 2 hours from Three Mile Island when that melt-down occurred (in the DC suburbs, and I had my car packed and ready to flee southward until the danger passed at that time. I'm concerned that there still could be aftershocks in the 8.0 range that could trigger another tsunami, even though the likelihood of another 8.9 quake is highly remote.Edited to respond to Joab:There is a tsunami warning system and it worked as it was supposed to. The issue here is that there wasn't a sufficient response system in place, especially when the epicenter was so close to shore, and the amount of time was so brief (10-15 minutes) That wavefront is moving at speeds of 400 to 500 mph and has a lot of energy connected to it. While the time wasn't sufficient for northeastern Japan, it minimized the loss of life elsewhere in the Pacific Rim (none in Hawaii, one fool in California who should have known better, and I haven't read of any others anywhere else.)Within a few more years, there will be a tsunami warning system in place in the Atlantic Ocean basin, including the Caribbean Sea, in addition to the Indian and Pacific basins.
God bless Japan.I will always remember the time that TAR15 contestants try sushi there
Japan got hit by another 9.2 magnitude earthqauke just this morning?? (5 to 6 hours ago)

AUGUSTA, Maine — Despite Gov. Paul LePage's suggestion Monday that the state give up the quest for federal approval and funding, officials at the troubled Riverview Psychiatric Hospital continue to work toward full compliance with federal standards.
"We have reapplied already, and I am optimistic that [investigators] could be returning by the early fall to resurvey," said Mary Mayhew, commissioner of the Department of Health and Human Services.
"At this point, I remain confident that we will be recertified," Mayhew said.
Riverview lost accreditation from the federal Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services, or CMS, last year, after an inspection prompted by an outburst of violence at the hospital revealed concerns with patient and staff safety, among other issues. All told, Riverview was failing to meet eight different broad conditions for accreditation.
While out of compliance, Riverview is in jeopardy of losing roughly $20 million in annual federal funding for the hospital, though the state has filed an appeal of the reduction and a lawsuit arguing that Riverview should never have been decertified in the first place.
Mayhew and DHHS, which oversees the state-run hospital, worked to turn it around, even replacing Riverview's chief in March. Riverview re-applied for certification and in May, inspectors once again came to the facility.
Last month, the feds again denied accreditation, citing concerns with document compliance and treatment plans. For example, some patients were admitted to the hospital without meeting admission requirements. Others were diagnosed with specific mental health issues but treatment for those conditions were nowhere to be found in the patient's treatment plan. Others received treatment that went undocumented.
On Monday, a frustrated LePage suggested that the state give up.
"Frankly, I think we ought to just go it alone and not take federal money," he told reporters while visiting a homeless shelter in Lewiston. "With the federal money, some of the fine print is so atrocious that sometimes we do more harm than good."
On Wednesday, the governor backed away from the statement. He told a WABI-5 reporter in Milo that the federal decision not to recertify was "shameful" and "disgusting" but said the hospital would be recertified.
But Mayhew left the door open to the possibility of Riverview operating without federal certification in the future. She said she understood the governor's frustration, and shared his concern that federal standards had been inconsistently applied throughout Riverview's 10-year history.
"We want to make sure that we're able to effectively support a center of excellence at Riverview, and that we have high-quality services and a safe environment," she said. "To the extent that actions taken by CMS related to certification detract from that, we would certainly evaluate a different path."
Other health policy experts, though, said Wednesday that going it alone would be an irresponsible move that would put taxpayer dollars and patient safety and rights on the line.
"It's simply unthinkable that in modern times you would have a hospital housing large numbers of desperately sick people operating unaccredited. I'm sure a court would not hesitate to shut it down" said Sara Rosenbaum, an attorney and professor of health policy at George Washington University.
Rosenbaum said CMS standards represented the "minimum" requirements for operating a safe and functional hospital. Not complying would mean not only a massive reduction in federal funding, she said, but could invite a deluge of lawsuits against the state.
Riverview is the only facility in the state that serves "forensic patients" — those placed into psychiatric care by the criminal justice system after being found guilty of a crime, including murder, or after being found mentally incompetent to stand trial. Additionally it serves civilian clients, some of whom may have been institutionalized against their will.
That means a population of patients at Riverview at any given moment may be forced to stay there, Rosenbaum said. But the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that no one can be held against their will in a substandard medical facility.
"You have invited a set of conditions that go well beyond just the terrible concept of putting people in an unsafe institution," she said. "You invite lawsuits against the state for subjecting people to substandard care."
What's more, if Riverview were to forgo federal certification, state licensing rules would have to be rewritten for the hospital to stay open. Currently, a state hospital license is dependant upon CMS accreditation, among other standards.
Rep. Drew Gattine, D-Westbrook, is a health care system consultant and member of the Health and Human Services Committee, said it would be "unthinkable" for a private hospital CEO to recommend against accreditation.
"If you said 'I'm fed up with the feds, I'm not going to be certified anymore,' your board would fire you," he said. "They'd look at you like you're crazy. [LePage] is trying to deflect responsibility."
Mayhew said that while being turned down was a setback, there was a bright side. When Riverview's certification was revoked last year, the feds cited eight different conditions — broad requirements that each contain many specific rules and regulations — that weren't being met. This time around, there was only one.
"Management has changed, and that's fairly recent," she said, alluding the the March hiring of Jay Harper to take over the troubled hospital. "It's changing a culture, and that takes time."

Hackers have cracked the antipiracy code commonly used in set-top boxes, and Blu-ray and DVD players, Intel told several news outlets yesterday. Rumors flew Tuesday that the High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) technology was compromised. Intel confirmed the news yesterday.
Intel spokesman Tom Waldrop said the code published online "appears" to be a master key. Users can derive keys from this published master key that will work on devices that use the copy protection technology.
HDCP prevents the copying of audio and video content playing on HD devices like TVs and players for Blu-ray and DVDs.The digital rights management software is required when playing audio and video content over HDMI cables (and other cables) that connect flat-panel TVs to gaming systems or other HD drvices.
The hack unlocks DRMed content by providing the master key, which can then strip the encryption that's on the cable box and DVR. With the encryption removed, anyone can make unlimited copies of HD content. Copy protection software becomes moot.
Expect to see DRM-free movies and games flooding the black market soon.
With DRM cracked, the way is open to build new HD devices, as well, and bypass the license fees Intel charges for the privilege. However, Intel doesn't expect illegal hardware to pop up anytime soon, pointing out there is a lot of work and expense involved in making the DRM-free computer chip, and then embedding in to a device. There is a risk that vendors in countries with less stringent copyright regulations will take on the hassle and start manufacturing DRM-free Blu-ray players and TVs. This would mean a hit for Intel's license fees and illegal hardware would impact retail sales of the devices.
Despite the hackers' victory, Intel said encryption technology is still sound and remains the best way to protect content.

- Description
The fully tested and certified Kirby Morgan BandMask® 28 with Posts may be used in mixed gas diving as well as shallow water diving.
The SuperFlow® adjustable demand regulators provide low inhalation resistance and high gas flow letting the diver breathe easier and work harder with less exertion. Both masks come standard with the large tube Kirby Morgan SuperFlow® 350 Regulator.

The Tri-Valve® Exhaust System has less breathing resistance than the older single valve exhaust. It retrofits to all previous Kirby Morgan BandMasks®. The BandMask® BandKeepers® coupled with the redesigned hood not only prevent any separation of the hood from the mask but also makes it impossible for the bands to separate from the mask.
The communications connections can be either a male waterproof plug in type or bare wire posts.The Kirby Morgan BandMask® 28 is very similar to the Kirby Morgan BandMask® 18. Many parts on the Kirby Morgan BandMask® 18 are interchangeable with the Kirby Morgan BandMask® 28. The major difference between the 18 and 28 is the material of the mask frame itself. The Kirby Morgan BandMask® 18 has a hand laid fiberglass frame (yellow) while the Kirby Morgan BandMask® 28 frame is an extremely durable injection molded plastic (black). The relative ease of production of the Kirby Morgan BandMask® 28 frame allows for a lower cost and quicker delivery of this mask. Other differences include: 1) The main exhaust body of the Kirby Morgan BandMask® 28® is part of the frame itself and uses a #545-041 Exhaust Cover) no comfort insert is required on the "28" 3) the face ports for the 18 and the 28 differ slightly in size.

Apartments Information for Parents
Apartments are available in the Marquette neighborhood throughout the year. There are over 200 rental properties within the MUPD patrol range, and students are typically able to find apartment housing near campus at any time of the year. However, student demand has driven the majority of apartment searches and lease signings to take place during the fall semester, and many landlords begin signing leases with students as early as Labor Day (for a lease that begins the following summer). More information on the neighborhood leasing timeline can be found on the Off-Campus housing website.
The Marquette University Apartments begin the leasing process during the October preceding the academic year during which students are planning to lease. This timeline allows students time to settle into classes and activities before they begin to consider housing for the upcoming year. Additionally, by waiting until the middle of fall semester, students – especially those who are first-time renters – have enough time to assess their options and make more informed decisions regarding their apartment search. We encourage all students – and parents – to explore the renter resources on the Off-Campus housing website.
After Marquette students have fulfilled their two-year, on-campus residency in Marquette's residence halls, they have the ability to move off campus into university-owned or privately-owned apartments. Due to the demand for university-owned apartments, Marquette University is unable to guarantee that every student will be able to secure a university-owned apartment through our Selection Process.
University apartment selection is similar to the process during which first-year students choose their residence halls for their sophomore year. Any student interested in living in the University Apartments is required to submit a $300 housing deposit (check or money order, payable to Marquette University), and are provided with a booklet including apartment selection information, the timeline for selection, and steps on how to use the online system. The University Apartments Selection Guide is also available online. Please note that deposits are only refundable if students are not booked into an apartment through the online system.
Current apartment residents are given the first opportunity to renew in the university apartments. After the current residents have re-booked their apartments, prospective renters are able to choose from the remaining apartments. The order in which students choose apartments is randomized, giving any student who meets the deposit submission deadline an equal chance to select an apartment. Class standing, grades, and selection times from previous processes do not have any bearing on when students are able to book an apartment.
The university-owned apartments are unique in the sense that many of them are designed for double occupancy (e.g. two students living together in a one-bedroom apartment). If all students chose to live this way, we could accommodate every single student who applies each year! However, many students choose to have their own bedrooms. We leave this decision up to each individual student, and the result is that the university-owned apartments typically become fully booked without accommodating every applicant – some students are unable to secure apartment housing in the university-owned properties. Should any student not be able to secure an apartment, we maintain a waiting list, and past trends have shown that a good number of units come available for waiting list applicants. Our office also assists students in searching for housing in the near Marquette neighborhood.
We hope that this brief overview gives you some insight into the University Apartment Selection Process. Our application selection process page has additional information on how and when selection takes place, and many questions about the five university-owned apartment buildings can be answered here as well. We invite you to view our apartment hunting presentations and join us for building tours. As always, please feel free to contact our office with questions, concerns, and comments!

Attorney General Baker Announces Execution Date for Stephen Anthony Mobley
Georgia Attorney General Thurbert E. Baker offers the following information in the case against Stephen Anthony Mobley, who is currently scheduled to be executed at 7:00 p.m., on March 1, 2005.
Scheduled Execution
On February 10, 2005, the Superior Court of Hall County filed an order, setting the seven-day window in which the execution of Stephen Anthony Mobley may occur to begin at noon, March 1, 2005, and ending seven days later at noon on March 8, 2005. The Commissioner of the Department of Corrections has set the specific date and time for the execution as 7:00 p.m., March 1, 2005, pursuant to the discretion given the Commissioner under state law. Mobley has concluded his direct appeal, as well as state and federal habeas corpus proceedings.
Mobley's Crimes
Shortly after midnight on February 17, 1991, Mobley robbed a Hall County Domino's pizza store and shot John C. Collins, the store manager, in the back of the head with a semi-automatic pistol. The physical evidence from the scene was consistent with a statement Mobley later made to a cellblock inmate that Collins was on his knees when Mobley shot him. Over the next three weeks, Mobley committed six additional armed robberies of restaurants and dry-cleaning shops. Approximately three weeks after the crimes in issue, Mobley used the pistol while robbing a dry cleaning store, and tried to dispose of it by tossing it out his car window onto the side of a road when he realized he was being followed by an unmarked police car. The pistol was later recovered and Mobley arrested, after a high-speed chase. Mobley made statements to the police confessing to the murder of Collins and the robbery of the pizza store.
Following his incarceration, Mobley had: the word "Domino" tattooed on his back, placed a Domino's pizza box in his cell on the wall, carried a domino piece in his pocket with the same dot configuration as that used by Domino's Pizza, told a guard that he wished the guard had been up at Domino's instead of that other boy, in referring to the victim stated that "If that fat son-of-a-bitch had not started crying, I would never have shot him," told another guard that he "going to apply for the night manger's job at Domino's because he knew they needed one," told another guard that the guard was "beginning to look more and more like a Domino's pizza boy everyday," told another guard that "anywhere Mobley was put [in jail] he'd kill anybody he came in contact with" and forcibly sodomized his cellmate on two separate occasions. See Mobley v. State, 265 Ga. 292 (1995).
The Trial (1991-1994)
The Hall County Grand Jury indicted Mobley on March 19, 1991. A jury found Mobley guilty of malice murder, felony murder based on five separate underlying felonies, and guilty of those five underlying felonies (armed robbery, three counts of aggravated assault, and possession of a firearm in the commission of a crime) on February 16, 1994. The jury's recommendation of a death sentence was returned on February 20, 1994. The trial court imposed sentence on February 28, 1994 nunc pro tunc February 20, 1994.
The Direct Appeal (1995)
The Georgia Supreme Court affirmed Mobley's convictions and sentences on March 17, 1995. Mobley v. State, 265 Ga. 292, 455 S.E.2d 61 (1995). Mobley filed a petition for writ of certiorari in the United States Supreme Court, which was denied on October 30, 1995. Mobley v. Georgia, 516 U.S. 942 (1995).
State Habeas Corpus Petition (1996-1998)
Mobley was represented by retained counsel, August "Bud" Siemon. Mobley filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus in the Superior Court of Butts County, Georgia on or about March 12, 1996. An evidentiary hearing was held February 24-25, 1997. On October 13, 1997, the state habeas corpus court granted relief as to sentence on the claim of ineffective assistance of counsel during the sentencing phase. The State appealed to the Georgia Supreme Court, which reversed the habeas corpus court's order and reinstated Mobley's death sentence on July 15, 1998. Head v. Mobley, 269 Ga. 635, 502 S.E.2d 458 (1998).
Federal Habeas Corpus Petition (1999-2000)
Mobley, represented by Bud Siemon and Brian Steele, filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia on February 19, 1999. Following an evidentiary hearing, the District Court denied relief on May 25, 2000. The District Court granted Mobley a certificate of appealability on August 4, 2000.
11th Circuit Court of Appeals (2001)
The case was orally argued before the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals on April 4, 2001. On October 4, 2001, the Eleventh Circuit issued an opinion which denied relief. Mobley v.

So I'm 18, and still live with my parents. I've also been an Atheist for two years now, and have never looked back at my former Christian faith.
So my mom and family still think that I'm a Christian, and they haven't really asked me much about my faith, but recently, my mom is really making a push to get me to read the read the bible, pray, etc. , and it is really starting to make me feel very uncomfortable.
The point is, I want to tell my family that I'm an Atheist, but I'm not sure how. If I just come out and tell my mom, she's going to kill me, I just know it, and may even take away my laptop and android tablet.
Does anyone have any experience with this and can offer suggestions? I really need help! I don't want to keep pretending to be a Christian! I want my family to know who and what I am, and I don't want to keep it a secret.

Well .. since you are still living at home and you are not on your own .. I would just keep your Atheism to yourself for the time being. Once you get out on your own then you can tell them (when you feel the time is right). I know how hard it is to keep it inside .. but just hold out for a little longer. My thoughts are with you. I wish you the best. I hope you like the site .. we are here for you!
Thanks for the advice. I have thought about just keeping it to myself, and I think that I will until I go off to college(that will be so nice.....). But it is really hard. My sister(even though we live together) emails me several Bible verses each day, and has approached me several times stating that I should make sure that I'm devoting myself to Jesus. It's hard for me to stay quiet when she does this. I just want to tell her to stop, but I just can't make myself do it, and I don't know when I'll be able to.
As for my mom again, at least I should be able to survive and keep it a secret until college. I'll likely just end up reading the Bible just so I can better prepare myself in my future meetings witth Creationists.
Thanks for your support. It really means so much to me to have some Atheist allies among all of the Christian doctrine that I encounter each day. I love this site. It's just what I've been looking for lately, and I'm sure that it will become one of my favorite places on the web.
I agree with Steph. It can wait. I think some of what is bothering is that you love your family. Doing anything that you consciously know will cause pain to the people you love hurts you also. And is scary. You worry about many things, will they reject me, will we get past this and have a good relationship again, do they still love me. And many other things. You have the time, my young friend. Making this sacrifice, temporarily, for your family. You will have to follow your heart and feelings on this eventually. But for now, try to step back, take that deep breath, and remember, you will make it. That old quote 'what doesn't kill you makes you stronger' might apply here. You will emerge the stronger.
Oh, and reading the bible skeptically is very good training for future confrontations. Really amazing stuff. Check out 'Evil Bible". It is online. But don't forget to read it in conjunction with the regular bible. Be well, my young friend. Feel free to drop us a mail anytime. Peace
Thanks for the great advice! I'm definitely going to wait until I move away before I tell them. That will certainly make breaking it to them so much easier.
And I checked out the Evil Bible. Along with the Skeptic's Annotated Bible, I might actually begin to enjoy my Bible reading and look forward to seeing all of the nonsense, violence, and all of the other unsavory things that it contains. That's part of what made me an Atheist. When I thought about all the people God kills, all the impossibilities the Bible contains, and combined that with the fact that people say "God is good", it was a no-brainer for me. I've never once looked back.
For several months after I came out, my mom was doing the same thing, sending me articles and bible verses to show me that god wasn't the ogre that she thought I thought god was. For the time being, maybe just delete the emails from your sister, and as tempting as it may be to bite your tongue, her confrontations will only get more insistent if you come out.
If anything, it's not a bad idea to read through the bible with your critical faculties engaged. It's not an exaggeration that there are probably more atheists who know the bible better than many Christians. You really see how crazy the whole thing is, and wonder how you could've been taken in by it in the first place.
I'll definitely do that. I have just been deleting them, but also I've been dying to send her a sample of the Kiwi Question or some other great Atheist article. I've managed to keep silent so far though, and I don't plan to jeopardize all of that hard work with one little email.
And I have been reading the Bible a little bit, and I'm enjoying analyzing the nonsense parts. The Old Testament is actually somewhat similar to the Koran when you compare all of the violence that God commands people to do, and I'm comparing the two to see which one is worse.
Thank goodness people ignore large parts of the OT. Where would we be if we had people who actually followed some of those commands?
Alex, I just have to add that I agree with David. Don't be afraid to reach out to us. You are off to a good start. The road to reason and healthy skepticism. What a grand adventure for the thinking, rational mind. Be well. And please keep us informed if you feel so inclined. We'll be here.
You are welcome! We are here for you. You can always feel free to email me to .. if you ever want to talk.
Oh Alex, as trite as this sounds, I can honestly relate so much with you. At age 18 I wasn't an atheist yet (that wouldn't happen for another ten years), but I was closeted gay, living with my parents, and terrified that they were going to find out and disown me. The only advice I can give you is that while you may want to be honest with them and declare yourself, you should probably wait until after you've moved out and are on your own. Right now they don't see you as an adult. They see you as their son who needs to be guided and put on the right path (Proverbs 22:6 was my mom and dad's parenting philosophy). I hate to advise you to sneak around, and I certainly don't advise you to pretend to be a Christian by any means, but if your parents are anything like mine you'll need to spend some time away from home before you can be honest with them. Atheism is scary to Christians, and to Christian parents who don't want their child to burn in hell. Ugh, it's messy.
What I can advise you to do is to start seeking out atheist community around you. Try a social site like Meetup.com and see if there are any atheist groups around you. I've had really good luck here in Saint Paul, and am finally starting to build a close community of nonbelievers. You'll want to make sure your parents can't snoop around on your computer, but the fact that you're on Atheist Nexus is a good start.
Twitter is also a great resource for connecting to other atheists! My handle is @happy_skeptic, if you want to connect, but I have a pretty extensive and supportive atheist network. If anything, it's nice to have reminders that you're not alone. Which you're not.
Thanks again for this advice! I'm glad that you can relate to my situation.
But yes, I think Proverbs 22:6 really is my mom's parenting philosophy as well(my dad has never approached me about religion, so he's cool). She has often said things like, "Do you want to go to heaven, or hell?" "It's my duty to make sure that you know about God, you realize that, right?" and "This is important stuff, Alex. It's the most important book that you'll read in your entire life."
It has been quite hard to stay silent with words such as these coming at me, but I have managed so far. I'll also try out some of the sites you suggested, and as soon as I get a new twitter account going(what would my parents say if they saw my old one talking about Atheism) I'll swing by and connect.
Once again, thanks! Talking with fellow Atheists really makes my life so much easier among all of this Christianity I have to deal with every day.
Watch out for the emotional appeals too: "How can you reject Jesus like this after what he did for you!? He loves you so much!" Hearing Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens parrot that in their talks and then tear that "argument" to pieces takes the pull right out of that. And still Christians will use that line: "Even if you don't believe in him, he still loves you." For the most part I just don't engage anymore. Only on rare occasions, when I'm feeling blodothirsty, will I tear into an Evangelical. It's fun to go after the gender assumptions about god. "Him? Why not her?"
Thinking about all of this, there is a line I came up with in a post some time back which speaks at least in part to the whole issue of belief and its problematic nature:
Something which does not exist cannot help us, but chronic dependence on something which fails to exist does active harm to all of us.
Some proposed deity out there might or might not help. The ONE person who CAN help remains "first person, singular," which in your case, Alex, seems to have a pretty decent start on things. And as for additional help ... well, judging from the contents of this post, you have plenty!

STATELINE (WIFR) -- Roundtrip, daily passenger rail service from Rockford to Chicago is expected to return to the Stateline next year.
The announcement just came from Governor Pat Quinn who says the state has set aside more than $200 million to finally make this happen.
If this goes through, it will be the first time passenger rail service has been in Rockford since 1981.
The rail services will run on a different set of tracks than what Governor Quinn previously promised.
Daily passenger round trip rail service will run from Chicago to Rockford on Union Pacific tracks with stops in Elgin, Huntley, and Belvidere. This is different from previous talk of Amtrak service in Rockford. Governor Quinn says the state couldn't reach a deal with Canadian National to run rail service south of I-90.
Governor Quinn says the state has committed more than $200 million for this project which is scheduled to start construction this summer. Right now, the plan is to have one daily train round trip from Rockford to Chicago. However, Quinn says more trains will run as there's more passengers.
Governor Quinn says this service is just a starting point. He says he hopes to extend service to Freeport, Galena, and Dubuque, Iowa.
Quinn says service will start next year and right now, a temporary station will be on 7th Street.
Now that Governor Quinn has laid out plans for the project, it comes in stark contrast to what U.S. Senator Dick Durbin told us recently.
Senator Durbin says after this year's budget address, setting aside federal funding for the project did not look promising.

Hello, my name is Encyclopedia Brown. You killed my Mother and Father. Prepare to die.
hahaha yesss
I would open with the bomb going off, but that's probably just me...I only ever write action scenes.
ha -- just saw this! How did it turn out? Here's a try:
For once, the encyclopedias upon which he'd staked his investigative reputation had failed him. From A-Z, including that weird double volume of S, and the single thin one containing U-V, there would be no answers to this mystery. He'd called in UberBrain Viki, but she was, as always, chatting it up with the more seasoned "researchers" who sought her expertise, and she'd refused to make time for him. He sighed. He knew what he needed to do. So he took out his phone. And dialed.

Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Workflow Overview
A. ProQuest uploads deposits of zip files to the content.lib.ua.edu server via ftp into the ftpaccess home directory, and notifies either Janet Lee-Smeltzer or Jody DeRidder of the upload. If Janet, then Janet notifies Jody.
B. Jody relocates the content into a directory named for the date of deposit (yyyymmdd) in the ftpaccess home directory. She then copies this entire directory to a working directory for modifications, where she unzips all the content and performs the following tasks:
- extracts from each metadata file the following information:
- title,
- author,
- year the manuscript was completed
- year the degree was awarded
- embargo code (if any)
- calls the InfoTrack.bornDigital mysql database table on libcontent1.lib.ua.edu to find the next filenumber to assign and the InfoTrack.lookup table to determine the next persistent URL;
- records the item number assigned, the PURL assigned, the author and title in these tables
- inserts the assigned item number (filename, minus the extension) into a UA_identifier attribute and the assigned PURL into a UA_purl attribute within the DISS_submission field in a copy of the metadata
- places this altered copy of the metadata into an PRQ subdirectory; the copy will be named with the assigned filename followed by ".prq.xml" (thus a correctly named file would be: u0015_0000001_0000023.prq.xml) to indicate this is still ProQuest XML.
- copies all the bitstreams and renames them appropriately, placing them in a CONTENT subdirectory. The primary PDF will be named with the assigned filename followed by ".pdf"; subsidiary files will be numbered sequentially, with a 4-digit left-padded number attached to the assigned filename, followed by the extension. So the first subsidiary file for this file (if a jpeg) would properly be named u0015_0000001_0000023_0001.jpg, and the second (if a text file) would be named u0015_0000001_0000023_0002.txt.
- creates an entry for each record in a tab-delimited xmlList.txt file which contains the following fields:
- assigned filename
- original filename
- author
- title
- directory (created out of zip file name)
- year the manuscript was completed
- year the degree was awarded
- an indicator of the existence of subsidiary files
- the embargo code
- date item is made available via the web
- the assigned PURL
C. Jody creates a directory in the Metadata Librarian home area under etd_deposits labeled to match the date of deposit (as above: yyyymmdd). She copies the original, unzipped deposit to an ORIGINAL subdirectory. She also copies the CONTENT and PRQ subdirectories to this directory, and copies the xmlList.txt to this directory also. She then notifies the Metadata Librarian responsible for the next step.
D. The Metadata Librarian (at this time, Shawn Averkamp) works with the deposited content to create valid MODS files meeting our local profile, which include the assigned identifier and PURL, and are named for the assigned identifier with a ".mods.xml" extension.
E. The Metadata Librarian also creates valid MARC files for upload into our OPAC system, which reference the included assigned identifier and PURL.
F. She places the finished MODS in a MODS directory next to the PRQ and CONTENT directories.
G. The Metadata Librarian notifies Jody that the records are ready.
H. Jody copies the deposits to the Deposit subdirectory on the storage server, and runs a script which will move the files into the correct subdirectories for long-term storage, linking them into the LOCKSS manifests.
I. Jody extracts the filenames and embargo codes from the xmlList.txt, adds in the date the embargo starts, and calculates the end of the embargo dates. She then adds this information to a list or database entry that is checked by the periodic refreshing script.
J. The periodic refreshing script crawls through the storage directory, picks up new and modified files, checks for embargo dates not yet past, and if this raises no flags, copies the content and MODS to the web directories for online delivery. The periodic refreshing script will also note if an embargo date is past.
I. The Metadata Librarian submits a batch upload of the MARC records into our catalog system.
J. The Metadata Librarian checks the final display and access via both OPAC and digital library system to verify that no problems exist. If any problems are encountered, she contacts Jody and we work out how to fix them. :-)
K. The Metadata Librarian will batch upload the MARC to WorldCat.
L. Jody will also set up a script that will check the database on the first of each month for embargoes which are due to lift that month; this script will email Jody and the Metadata Librarians with the filename, title, author, and date that the embargo is to lift.
M. The Metadata Librarian will then prepare and upload the no-longer-embargoed-content into the local OPAC and into WorldCat.
