Stargate Atlantis - Rising - television series premiere episode part 1 and 2 - Friday 16 July 2004 (DVD extended version)
Episode Summary
The discovery of an outpost, left behind by the Ancients in the most unlikely of places, leads a new Stargate team to the distant Pegasus galaxy. Once there, they discover a planet of humans being decimated by a terrible alien race know as the Wraith.
(from internet transcript)
Dr. Elizabeth WEIR: Alright, just shut up and listen to me for a moment, alright? Come on, what do we know about the Wraith? One of the few things we do know is that they are the enemy that defeated the Ancients. When we first began to use the Stargate we found on Earth, we got ourselves into serious trouble -- why?
US Air Force major John SHEPPARD: I don't need a history lesson ...
WEIR: Because the people in charge didn't consider the ramifications before they reacted.
SHEPPARD: They took our people -- how am I supposed to react?
WEIR: And we're defenceless -- you said so yourself. How do you know going off on some half-assed rescue mission isn't gonna to bring them all right back here to our doorstep?
SHEPPARD: Maybe it will. But it's the right thing to do. Why? Because it is!
WEIR: John ...
SHEPPARD: If we're not gonna do this -- and I mean right now -- let's just turn tail and pack up, because they're coming.
WEIR: You don't know that.
SHEPPARD: Our people are in the hands of the enemy, Doctor. Do you know what that means? It is just a matter of time before the Wraith figure out that this is the base of our operations.

ESCAPE FROM TOMORROW - "Two astronauts, Virdon and Burke, are thrown through a time warp in space and end up on a planet ruled by apes in the year 3085."
Escape from the Planet of the Apes (1971)
(from internet transcript)
With me this evening in the studio is Dr. Otto Hasslein. He is a senior scientific adviser with the White House... and he'll be giving us his views on the crucial statement made at this morning's session.
Escape from the Planet of the Apes (1971)
(from internet transcript)
Now, you've written several learned dissertations on the nature of time.
Could you explain in terms that our viewers at home will understand... how, for instance, a person, or persons...
uh, could travel from time past to time future
Mm-hmm.
or, indeed, vice versa?
Mr. Bonds, I think that time can only be fully understood... by an observer with a godlike gift of infinite regression.
Could you explain infinite regression for us?
Roll the film.
I'd be more than happy to. As a matter of fact, I came prepared to do just that.
Now, here's a painting of a landscape.
Now, the artist who painted that picture... says something is missing.
What is it? "It is I myself, who was part of the landscape I painted."
So he mentally takes a step backward, or regresses... and paints a picture of the artist painting a picture of the landscape.
But still something is missing, and that something... is still his real self painting the second picture.
So he regresses further and paints a third a picture of the artist painting a picture... of the artist painting a picture of the landscape.
But because something is still missing... he paints a fourth and a fifth... until he paints a picture... of the artist painting a picture of the artist painting a picture... of the artist painting a picture of the artist painting a landscape.
So infinite regression then is It is the moment when our artist has regressed to the point of infinity... and himself becomes part of the landscape he painted... and is both the observer and the observed.
Well, now, in that peculiar condition... what would he be observing if he were observing, let's say, time?
He would perceive, Mr. Bonds, that time is like a freeway... with an infinite number of lanes... all leading from the past into the future.
However, not into the same future.
A driver in lane "A" may crash while a driver in lane "B" survives.
It follows that a driver, by changing lanes, can change his future.
Now, Mr. Bonds, I do not find it difficult to believe... that in the dark and turbulent corridors of outer space... the impact of some distant planetary, even galactic disaster... jumped the apes from their present into ours. And indeed, the proof lies in their arrival among us... and in their spoken and I repeat spoken testimony.
Thank you very much, Dr. Hasslein. It's certainly the most incredible story this reporter has ever covered.
Back to the Future (1985)
(from internet transcript)
Remember, fellow citizens, the future is in your hands. If you believe in progress, re-elect Mayor Red Thomas. Progress is his middle name. Mayor Red Thomas' progress platform... means more jobs, better education... bigger civic improvements and lower taxes. On election day, cast your vote for a proven leader. Re-elect Mayor Red Thomas.
This has got to be a dream.
Hey, kid. You jump ship ?
What ?
What's with the life preserver ?
It's in the back.
Brown. Great. You're alive.
Come on.
Do you know where 1640 Riverside...
Are you going to order, kid ?

Episode Summary
Astronauts Alan Virdon and Peter Burke crash land on a strange planet. After being rescued by a friendly human, Virdon and Burke discover this planet is ruled by intelligent apes. To their horror, they discover that they are back on Earth in the year 3085. Meanwhile ape leader Dr. Zaius learns of the presence of the spacemen and wants them captured and questioned, much to the chagrin of General Urko, who wishes them dead. To protect his interests, Zaius sends his young assistant Galen with Urko to retrieve the humans. The apes capture the humans and they are taken before the council. Zaius orders them confined for questioning, but Urko conspires to free the humans, and then kill them as escaping prisoners. However, Galen learns of this and foils Urko's plan, allowing the humans to escape. Galen is arrested and accused of murdering one of the guards. The humans must rescue Galen before retrieving a magnetic disc, which could hold the key to returning to their time, from their ship before the apes destroy it.

Jet Propulsion Laboratory
The Jet Propulsion Laboratory's history reaches back to the tumultuous years leading up to World War II. Rockets were perceived as devices of fantasy, seen only in movie serials and comic strips like Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon. Despite rocket pioneer Robert Goddard’s successful development of early rockets, he was publicly ridiculed for his work. But in the fall of 1936, a group of enterprising young men in Pasadena, Calif., decided to risk their reputations and give engineering substance to rocket fantasy.
The "rocket boys" were an unusual bunch. Frank Malina was studying aerodynamics at Caltech's Guggenheim Aeronautical Laboratory, known as GALCIT. Jack Parsons was a self-taught chemist, and Ed Forman was an excellent mechanic. They scraped together cheap engine parts, and on Oct. 31, 1936, drove to an isolated area called the Arroyo Seco at the foot of the San Gabriel Mountains.
Four times that day they tried to test fire their small rocket motor. On the last attempt, they accidentally set fire to their oxygen line, which whipped around shooting fire! These were the first rocket experiments in the history of JPL. They tried again on Nov. 15, 1936, and their experiment finally worked.

DOES THE INERTIA OF A BODY DEPEND UPON ITS ENERGY-CONTENT?
By A. Einstein
September 27, 1905
The results of the previous investigation lead to a very interesting conclusion, which is here to be deduced.
I based that investigation on the Maxwell-Hertz equations for empty space, together with the Maxwellian expression for the electromagnetic energy of space, and in addition the principle that:—
The laws by which the states of physical systems alter are independent of the alternative, to which of two systems of coordinates, in uniform motion of parallel translation relatively to each other, these alterations of state are referred (principle of relativity).
With these principles - as my basis I deduced inter alia the following result (§ 8):—
Let a system of plane waves of light, referred to the system of co-ordinates (x, y, z), possess the energy l; let the direction of the ray (the wave-normal) make an angle with the axis of x of the system. If we introduce a new system of co-ordinates () moving in uniform parallel translation with respect to the system (x, y, z), and having its origin of co-ordinates in motion along the axis of x with the velocity v, then this quantity of light—measured in the system ()—possesses the energy
where c denotes the velocity of light.

DC-10 Commercial Transport
The McDonnell Douglas DC-10 was produced in three basic models, the Series 10 for domestic routes to 3,500 miles and the series 30 and 40 for extended range and intercontinental travel. DC-10s were modified as passenger/cargo convertible versions and as the KC-10 aerial tanker for the U.S. Air Force.
In addition to the luxury and spaciousness inherent in its wide cabin, the three-engine DC-10 incorporated improvements in propulsion, aerodynamics, structure, avionics, flight control systems and environmental compatibility that advanced industry standards.
Designed and built in Long Beach, Calif., production was started in January 1968 and first deliveries were in 1971. The last of the giants was delivered in 1990. By 1990, 386 commercial DC-10s were delivered, plus 60 KC-10 tanker/cargo models built for the Air Force.

Why Do People Believe in God?
The evolution of religious belief.
Posted Aug 21, 2018
Why do people believe in God? For most people in the world, the answer seems obvious: Because it’s self-evident that God exists. From the point of view of the believer, the really puzzling question is how anyone could not believe.
And yet, as University of California at Irvine psychologist Brett Mercier and his colleagues point out in a recent article, there was once a time in the prehistory of our species when nobody believed in a god of any sort. Our evolutionary ancestors were all atheists, but somewhere along the way they found religion. So we’re back to our original question: Why do people believe in God?
Because of hypersensitive agency detection, we also have a tendency to infer intentionality in natural processes or inanimate objects. Beliefs in water sprites and woodland spirits, specters and spooks, ghosts and demons, are ancient and observed in every culture around the world. Because the natural world is complex and acts in mysterious ways, we detect agency all around us.
By the way, if you think that you—an intelligent human being living in modern society—are free of such superstitious nonsense, you need to ask yourself
The solution was to invent ever-watchful gods who’ll punish cheaters for us. Thus, organized religion grew hand-in-hand with the rise of the city-state.
Fast forward a dozen millennia, and here we are living in a technologically advanced society driven by science that tells us the world moves according to the laws of physics and not the whims of spirits or deities. Nevertheless, religious belief in one or more gods that watch over our actions and judge us accordingly is quite common.

Jack Parsons (rocket engineer)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Whiteside "Jack" Parsons (born Marvel Whiteside Parsons October 2, 1914 – June 17, 1952) was an American rocket engineer and rocket propulsion researcher, chemist, and Thelemite occultist. Associated with the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), Parsons was one of the principal founders of both the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and the Aerojet Engineering Corporation. He invented the first rocket engine to use a castable, composite rocket propellant, and pioneered the advancement of both liquid-fuel and solid-fuel rockets.
After a brief involvement with Marxism in 1939, Parsons converted to Thelema, the English occultist Aleister Crowley's new religious movement.
L. Ron Hubbard, he conducted the Babalon Working, a series of rituals designed to invoke the Thelemic goddess Babalon to Earth.

This sex-crazed cultist was the father of modern rocketry
By Johnny Oleksinski June 19, 2018 10:04pm
On June 17, 1952, a boom rocked Pasadena, Calif., an explosion at a coach house on the old Cruikshank estate, a plot of land on Millionaires Row where a large manor once stood.
The interior of the house was torn apart by a science experiment gone wrong. Amid the debris were strewn-about pages covered in symbols such as pentagrams and text written in unfamiliar languages. On the floor was the body of a man, in a pool of blood, whose face was half-ripped off and body shattered.
The man was 37-year-old John “Jack” Whiteside Parsons: the father of modern rocketry.
Without Parsons, Neil Armstrong may have never set foot on the moon, and American military power might be a fraction of what it is today. But Parsons’ global significance was overshadowed by a juicier pastime — he was a leader of a black-magic sex cult, of which Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard was once a member.
Parsons is the subject of a new CBS All Access series starring Jack Reynor called “Strange Angel.” It’s based on the 2006 book of the same name by George Pendle. The author, who’s also a journalist, unexpectedly stumbled upon Parsons while doing research in 2002.
“I was doing [a story] on a guy called Kenneth Anger, an avant-garde filmmaker,” Pendle told The Post. “And there was a footnote [in a biography] which said, ‘Marjorie Cameron, an actress, had been married to an eccentric rocket scientist, Jack Parsons, who had interest in the occult.’ And I was just like, ‘Tell me more!’ ”
There wasn’t much more available, so Pendle had to dig. He discovered that Parsons was one of the founders of the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, or JPL, at Caltech, where the first rocket experiments were conducted in 1936. But as Pendle’s curiosity about Parsons grew, so did his roadblocks. More than 70 years later, Parsons’ involvement was still a sore subject for the JPL.
“When I tried to interview people [there], they were just not interested,” Pendle said, adding that the general consensus was, “He’s not the sort of person we want to talk about.”
But a librarian at the JPL named John Bluth had been quietly exhuming moldy old papers belonging to the innovator that were being used to fill cracks in walls. Combing through the information, Pendle found a man of many contradictions — the creator of a whole new science who believed that rocketry could be a boon to mankind just as strongly as he felt he could summon mystical beings to Earth using explosions and magical rituals.
“What better forefather to have than this guy who was a crazed genius?” Pendle said.
As a kid in Pasadena, Parsons was obsessed with traveling to the moon, and he devoured Jules Verne novels. That curiosity extended into a love of explosives. The 12-year-old budding chemist would scrape the black powder from fireworks and pack it tightly into casings to fashion rudimentary rockets.
It was also around this time he first dabbled in the occult — by attempting to contact the devil in his bedroom.
His bizarre passions worried his mother, Ruth, whose wealthy family made its fortune in the manufacturing business, so Parsons was sent off to San Diego’s Brown Military Academy for Boys to straighten him out. The plan didn’t work.
“He used to blow up toilets in the whole damn place,” Jeanne Forman, the wife of one of Parsons’ childhood friends, told Pendle.
He enrolled at Pasadena Junior College in 1933 hoping to study chemistry and physics, but the Whiteside family money had dwindled precipitously, and he was forced to drop out. He was accepted at Stanford, but that, too, was out of his price range. Parsons, who wasn’t very good at math, never earned more than a high-school diploma.
But he went on to meet like-minded friends, and in 1936 they managed to convince Caltech, a Pasadena academic institution, to let them use their facilities, but not funding, to “study, create and fly” rockets. The young men had impressed Theodore von Karman, director of GALCIT (Guggenheim Aeronautical Laboratory at the California Institute of Technology), with their boldness and determination. On campus, the group swiftly became known as the “Suicide Squad,” because the pals narrowly escaped death during several experiments. All this happened when Parsons was just 23.
Thus, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, first called the GALCIT Rocket Research Group, was born. It was a major achievement for a field whose practitioners were once labeled “crackpots” during a congressional hearing, and mentioned in the same breath as alchemists and magicians — like Aleister Crowley.
It was Crowley, an outlandish English society figure who preached a blend of magic, sex and spirituality, who attracted Parsons to the world of the occult.
Ordo Templi Orientis, a religious secret society led by Crowley, “offered very similar things rocketry does,” said Pendle. “Expanding one’s arena, pushing mankind to a greater level, of leaving the Earth for a new metaphysical world, just as rocketry said you could leave the Earth for new planets. And I think for him, there were really close parallels between occultism and rocketry.”
Parsons attended one of Crowley’s OTO masses, led by “magicians,” in LA in 1939, and became enamored with the odd leader’s beliefs in hidden dimensions and the religion’s unique sexual freedom. Participants were encouraged to swap partners — three decades before the sexual revolution.
Two years later, Parsons and his wife, Helen, were members of the OTO. The group was a strange blend of actors, opera singers, scientists, German expats and others who subscribed to Crowley’s teachings — particularly the no-strings-attached canoodling.
While Helen was on a trip, Parsons began an affair with her half-sister, Sara “Betty” Northrup. This infuriated Helen, despite the freewheeling teachings of the OTO. Crowley called marriage “a detestable institution,” and Parsons used that rationale to explain his unquenchable sexual desires. Eventually, Helen began her own affair with Wilfred Smith, the head of Agape Lodge, the group’s California chapter. She later divorced Parsons and married Smith.
In 1943, Crowley, who wanted Smith to step down, declared Smith “a god,” ordering him to tattoo “666” on his forehead, abandon Agape Lodge and wander the desert making no contact with OTO members. Parsons was installed as Agape’s new leader.
At this point, Parsons was at his peak: He had convinced the government that rocketry could be useful in wartime and formed a successful business called Aerojet. In 1943, the US Army ordered 2,000 rockets from the company.
It was not to last. A year later, Parsons was removed from the JPL and Aerojet for his associations with the lodge, which had relocated from LA to Pasadena, and had drawn scrutiny for its unusual practices. His work with rocketry wasn’t over, but it would never again be on so grand a scale.
Around that time, Hubbard, then a science-fiction writer, showed up and entranced the OTO members with his extraordinary charisma, wit and impossible tales. Parsons was taken with Hubbard, writing: “He is a gentleman. Red hair, green eyes, honest and intelligent and we have become great friends.”
But that changed when Hubbard seduced Betty, Parsons’ girlfriend. Soon, the two became an item and Parsons was overcome, for the first time, with jealous rage. Hubbard ran off with Betty, taking with him not just Parsons’ squeeze, but a lucrative idea.
“Parsons showed Hubbard a way — a kind of format for forming a religion,” said Pendle. “Crowley came up with this kind of structure of a mystical society. A hierarchy where you move your way up, and each time you move up a level, you find out more, but you have to pay to move up those levels. And so, I feel like Scientology’s whole structure is based on this cult that Parsons was part of.”
With World War II at an end, and unable to devote himself to his beloved rocket research, Parsons took solace in an increasingly outer form of magic — blending voodoo and witchcraft. Some OTO members believed he was using spells to try and summon a demon to kill Hubbard. In reality, he was trying to conjure a being to replace Betty.
His rituals often involved pentagrams, obscure scripture and masturbation, and would last more than two hours while Prokofiev’s Second Violin Concerto played in the background.
It might have worked. His future wife, Marjorie Cameron, arrived at the lodge in 1946. She was insatiably curious about the group and its mad-scientist leader. The pair went into Parsons’ room, where they performed “sex magick rituals” and barely emerged for two weeks. They were married in less than a year.
But things became dire for Parsons. In 1951, while he was working for Hughes Aircraft Co., the FBI revoked his security clearance because of his associations with possible Communists. They began an investigation into his “subversive” behavior. Making rockets for the government is impossible without some access to classified information. Parsons eventually regained clearance, but was later accused of espionage for taking documents from Hughes, and again was investigated by the FBI. He was found not guilty, but his science career was over.
Once a titan of his field, Parsons spent his final days working for the Special Effects Corp., making small explosives for films. That’s what he was doing on June 17, 1952, when, some have speculated, a chemical slipped out of his hand and sparked the explosion that took his life.
“It’s a tragedy,” said Pendle. “But it’s strangely fitting that the very thing which he loved killed him.”
There was no funeral for Parsons. His mother killed herself with an overdose of pills just hours after hearing of her son’s death, causing a tabloid frenzy. And the scientist’s reputation deteriorated into obscurity until Pendle wrote his book. The writer hopes the new TV show will help continue to salvage the reputation of a complicated, but hugely impactful man.
“I really hope that his science and occultism will be brought out of the shadows,” Pendle said. “That he’ll be seen as this fascinating American figure that pulled himself up by his own bootstraps, created a whole new science, discovered his own path and lived the life he wanted to lead.”

Thelema
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thelema is a social or spiritual philosophy derived from Western esotericism. The word thelema is the English transliteration of the Koine Greek noun, "will", from the verb (ethélo): "to will, wish, want or purpose". While Thelema is most often regarded as a religion—a new religious movement and contemporary mystery religion in particular—it is also referred to as a philosophy, religious philosophy, spiritual philosophy, or "religious matrix". An adherent of Thelema is traditionally referred to as a Thelemite, and all phenomena within the scope of Thelema are termed Thelemic.
The fundamental axiom, tenet, or boilerplate underlying Thelema—known as the "Law of Thelema"—is "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law". The traditional corresponding phrase is "Love is the law, love under will." Other common phrases, coined by Aleister Crowley, which are associated with Thelema are, "It is the mark of the mind untrained to take its own processes as valid for all men, and its own judgments for absolute truth“, and "For pure will, unassuaged of purpose, delivered from the lust of result, is every way perfect.“ These expressions can be characterized as having moral, mystical, and socio-political implications. In the Thelemic worldview or model, each person has a "True Will" and (insofar as each person acts in accordance with his or her Will) the nature of a person's interactions with the world (or universe) is a form of "love" or harmony. This is expressed further by a third metaphor, "every man and every woman is a star," which portrays the distinct nature of every individual as residing in a non-overlapping point of space and time; collisions between different persons being infrequent if each is aware of—and acting in accordance with—their true purpose in life.

You *do not* have "Faith".
You have FALSE HOPE.
You're a slacker.
You want something easy you don't have to work at and that a used salesman promised you offers big rewards. Rewards you definitely do not deserve.

I woke up this morning with more thoughts about that Medal Of Honor citation for Thomas R. Norris, and my similar journal entry from 6/12/2006. I checked the dates and his citation describes heroism observed over the period 10 to 13 April 1972. I woke up thinking more about that ’conveyance’ I wrote of and that I noted that the second-to-last known mission to the Moon launched on 4/16/1972. It was that Apollo 16 capsule I was writing about. I don’t know if Thomas R. Norris was intended to represent me, or if he was someone I was there in Vietnam - perhaps I was the Vietnamese soldier described in his citation because I was fluent in that language - but I am quite certain I was there during the rescue of those downed pilots. I made that 6/12/2006 journal entry after I had woke up from a restless night in that Pioneer Square homeless shelter and I was frustrated that there was only two computers on my floor for the 40 other people to share. So the basis for what I was writing was that I was there trying to rescue those pilots while I endured a fierce mortar barrage on my observation post. After rescuing the pilots, I went straight back to Canaveral - just 3 days later - and blasted off into space on a Saturn rocket for the Apollo 16 Moon landing.
From 1/17/1991 ( the date of record of my United States Navy Medal of Honor as Kerry Wayne Burgess chief warrant officer United States Marine Corps circa 1991 officially the United States Apache attack helicopter pilot ) To 4/13/2007 ( ) is 5930 days

The Slaver Weapon [ Star Trek television series episode ]
Original Airdate: 15 Dec, 1973
SPOCK: Stasis boxes and their contents are the only remnant of a species which ruled most of this galaxy a billion years ago. Their effect on science has been incalculable. In one was found a flying belt which was the key to the artificial gravity field used by starships. Another box contained a disrupter bomb with the pin pulled. As a result, all stasis boxes are now under the jurisdiction of Starfleet, and only certain key specialists handle them. The boxes are rare, potentially dangerous, and we seem to have found a second one.
[Planet surface]
(Spock, Sulu and Uhura are wearing life-support belts. Spock carries the box)
UHURA: I never did like these little ice-bound worlds.
SPOCK: We are not tourists here, Lieutenant.
SULU: Mister Spock, if it takes a stasis box to find another stasis box, how did anyone ever find the first one?
SPOCK: As with a number of discoveries, purely by accident, Lieutenant.

Place and Date: Quang Tri Province, Republic of Vietnam, 10 to 13 April 1972
Date of Issue: 03/06/1976
Citation: Lt. Norris completed an unprecedented ground rescue of 2 downed pilots deep within heavily controlled enemy territory in Quang Tri Province. Lt. Norris, on the night of 10 April, led a 5-man patrol through 2,000 meters of heavily controlled enemy territory, located 1 of the downed pilots at daybreak, and returned to the Forward Operating Base (FOB). On 11 April, after a devastating mortar and rocket attack on the small FOB, Lt. Norris led a 3-man team on 2 unsuccessful rescue attempts for the second pilot. On the afternoon of the 12th, a forward air controller located the pilot and notified Lt. Norris. Dressed in fishermen disguises and using a sampan, Lt. Norris and 1 Vietnamese traveled throughout that night and found the injured pilot at dawn. Covering the pilot with bamboo and vegetation, they began the return journey, successfully evading a North Vietnamese patrol. Approaching the FOB, they came under heavy machinegun fire. Lt. Norris called in an air strike which provided suppression fire and a smoke screen, allowing the rescue party to reach the FOB. By his outstanding display of decisive leadership, undaunted courage, and selfless dedication in the face of extreme danger, Lt. Norris enhanced the finest traditions of the U.S. Naval Service.

THE FREE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF WASHINGTON STATE HISTORY
West, Jim (1951-2006)
A Powerful State Senator
West wielded more power than any state senator except the majority leader, according to a 1998 newspaper profile.
Campaigning and More Campaigning
Yet soon West set his sights on a different office, one that he later called his lifelong goal: mayor of Spokane. On May 11, 2000, West announced his candidacy for mayor, under the city's new "strong mayor" form of government. It was a full-time position and it paid more than state Senate. He ran in the primary against incumbent mayor John Talbott and lawyer and political newcomer John Powers. All three candidates slugged it out in heated debates throughout the summer. A poll a few weeks before the September 2000 primary showed all three candidates bunched closely together. One political observer noted, "You've got three big-time serious candidates. Anybody can win" ("Talbott, West, Lead in Poll"). West ended up drawing the short straw -- he finished third with 26 percent of the vote, and was knocked out of the general election. Observers noted that his campaign had seemed "oddly lackluster" (Staley). Powers would go on to win the general election over incumbent Talbott, and West would return to the state Senate.
In November 2002, West found himself locked in another tight race, this time to retain his Senate seat. His opponent was Democrat Laurie Dolan, a school district administrator. It was the most expensive Senate campaign in state history at that time, partly because both parties knew it could decide control of the Senate. West raised more than $243,000 and Dolan raised more than $195,000. The two candidates traded barbs constantly. One campaign ad accused West of planning to run for Spokane mayor again in 2003. West responded, "I thought my opponent was going to play fair, but now her surrogates are attacking me," and said he had no plans to run for mayor in 2003 (Cannata). On November 5, 2002, West won a squeaker of a race by the final margin of 24,015 to 22,708.

West, Jim (1951-2006)
West's Gay Sex Scandal
Then, on May 5, 2005, a newspaper bombshell changed everything. The Spokesman-Review ran a package of investigative stories that essentially outed West as a closeted gay man who had trolled for dates on a gay chat and dating website. More seriously, the stories aired accusations from two men who said that West had molested them as boys more than 20 years earlier. The first sentence of the main story read, "For a quarter century, the man who is now Spokane's mayor has used positions of public trust -- as a sheriff's deputy, Boy Scout leader and powerful politician -- to develop sexual relations with boys and young men" ("West Tied to Sex Abuse in '70s...").
The child molestation allegations came from two convicted felons and drug addicts recalling incidents from the 1970s. West categorically denied them, saying, "I didn't abuse them. I don't know these people. I didn't abuse anybody, and I didn't have sex with anybody under 18 -- ever -- woman or man" ("West Tied to Sex Abuse in '70s...").
The allegation that he trolled for dates on a gay website came from a Spokane man who said he went on a date with West. The allegation that he offered city internships to prospective dates came, more controversially, from a computer forensics expert who The Spokesman-Review hired to verify West's online identity. The expert, posing as a young man with the handle Moto-Brock, engaged in coy sexual banter with an older man with the handle RightBi-Guy (who later switched to the handle JMSElton). Moto-Brock eventually got the older man to admit that he was the mayor of Spokane.

Quotes
Cornelius: They became alert to the concept of slavery. And, as their numbers grew, to slavery's antidote which, of course, is unity. At first, they began assembling in small groups. They learned the art of corporate and militant action. They learned to refuse. At first, they just grunted their refusal. But then, on an historic day, which is commemorated by my species and fully documented in the sacred scrolls, there came Aldo. He did not grunt. He articulated. He spoke a word which had been spoken to him time without number by humans. He said 'No.' So that's how it all started.

The Spokesman-Review
Mayor’s offer of posts, sexual advances amount to abuse of office, men say
Tue., May 10, 2005
By Karen Dorn Steele and Bill Morlin
The Spokesman-Review
High-salaried City Hall jobs and a position on a city policy-making board were offered independently to two young men after they met Mayor Jim West in an Internet chat room, both men told The Spokesman-Review on Monday.
Ryan M. Oelrich, a 24-year-old openly gay man, said he was appointed by West to the city Human Rights Commission in April 2004 but didn’t know at the time that West was the same man he’d met earlier on Gay.com who was using the screen aliases “Cobra82nd” and “RightBi-Guy.”
A second man, who asked not to be identified, said West offered him a job as the city’s “human resources director” during the same period of time.
“I stated I felt I wasn’t qualified, and the mayor replied that it just depended on the mayor liking you,” said the 24-year-old man who does not live in Spokane and whose family does not know he’s gay.
When he rejected the job offer, he said, West offered him a job as a “recreation supervisor,” which he also rejected. The man said he has a business degree.
The allegations by the two men came on the same day West told the Spokane City Council he is taking a leave of absence to prepare a defense to allegations that he sexually abused boys dating back to the late 1970s and that he has misused positions of public trust.
Jim Gotzian, chairman of the Human Rights Commission, said Monday he was “surprised to the point of shock” about the abuse-of-power controversy swirling around West, his old friend.
David Levitch, also a lifelong friend of West, declined comment on Oelrich’s resignation. Levitch said he recently resigned from the commission, frustrated that it wasn’t doing more to combat discrimination.
Oelrich told the newspaper he received an online “instant message” from Cobra82nd on the same day he was appointed to the Human Rights Commission.
“(West) did not reveal his identity (but) told me I was very attractive and should meet him for dinner,” Oelrich said.
Last June, three months after his appointment, Oelrich began to wonder if Cobra82nd, who was “dropping hints” during their online chats, was in fact the mayor.
To confirm his suspicions, Oelrich said he asked West if he was Cobra82nd and West said yes.
Oelrich said that a month later West told him his “motivations for wanting to appoint me to the commission was simply so he could meet me, get to know me.”
While serving 10 months on the commission, Oelrich said, he rebuffed a series of sexually explicit online advances from West.
A month after getting the appointment, Oelrich said, he was looking for a job and West suggested “that he had an internship program and that I would be great for, that I should come in. He also said there were other positions in city government that he would love to hire me for.”
On another occasion, Oelrich said West “offered me $300 cash if I’d swim naked with him in my swimming pool.”
“I declined and told him that was inappropriate,” Oelrich said on Monday. It was at that point, Oelrich said, that he found out West “had been driving over to see where I lived” and knew it was near a city dirt road that needed paving.
“He asked me what I would do if he just showed up at my door one night,” Oelrich said. “I declined his visit and told him that showing up at my door would alarm me. I was very worried …”
In what he viewed as another “sexual advance,” Oelrich said West invited him to accompany the mayor to a Gonzaga Bulldogs basketball game in California.
“He told me there would be one bed in the hotel room, and I would have to share it with him,” Oelrich said. “He told me he would pay for all the expenses.”
Oelrich said he initially thought he was appointed to the commission “because of my experience and commitment to human rights in Spokane, which is what I told my friends and family, without realizing it was simply a way for the mayor to meet me and to ask me out on a date because he thought I was hot.”
Oelrich said he spurned all of West’s sexual advances and suggestions the two go on a date, but agreed on one occasion to help the mayor go to a warehouse hardware store to buy shelving and related hardware.
Upon returning to the mayor’s house, Oelrich said, West “offered dinner and perhaps a movie while we sat on the couch.” Oelrich said he declined.
“I got the distinct impression he wanted more to happen on the couch than just a movie,” Oelrich said.
After that, instant messages continued to arrive from the mayor, Oelrich said, but “I rarely responded.”

(from internet transcript)
It's a human!
I thought I told you to stay outside!
And look, there are two more of them.
I wonder where they are?
We'll find them.
You're not to say a word about this, understand Arno?
Why not, Father? It's so exciting!
It's dangerous! Humans know their places.
That mustn't change.
If they were to find out that other humans could build and fly a machine like this they'd begin to think they're as good as we are!
But, Father, look. These humans must be better than we are.
You're not to say such a thing again! You're not even to think it!
I want this body buried at once.
If you ride fast you should be in Central City by tomorrow morning.
Give this message to Chief Councillor Zaius.
Hurry! I want a thorough search for the other two humans!

Humans.
They said they were from this world but from another time period long ago.
I've heard stories like that, but I thought they were stories.
I never believed that it really happened.

I found this book back near the ship. and it had pictures, and it showed humans building things and running strange machines.
It's true.
They did.
That book can't be true.
Yes, it is.
Humans built big cities, machines that swam in the sea, through the air,
And, uh.

Well, apes were considered wild animals in those days. They weren't as intelligent as you are.
