"Since 9/11 we’ve all grown accustomed to security procedures that, 11 years ago, most of us would have considered unreasonable intrusions on our liberty and privacy, all in the name of safety. That, I think, is the real measure of what terrorism does to a free society. It’s not the bombs or the airplanes that hurt us most, but the gradual intrusions into personal freedom that are implemented in response to those threats. Little by little, the freedom of movement we once knew is being chipped away and, in the event that we ever again face a mass terrorist attack with catastrophic loss, the stage will have been set for a ramp up in “security procedures” that will make America an unrecognizable shell of its former self." - Wikipedia:User:DamionMC72 .

Lifeboat Foundation

The Lifeboat Foundation is a non-profit organization aiming to reduce existential risks to ensure the survival of human civilization. It focuses on both natural and man-made threats by initiating a variety of programs and undertakings on its website. The foundation seeks to inform the public of the dangers of increasingly powerful technologies, including genetic and nanoengineering.^[1] The misuse of such technologies by only a few individuals, it argues, could produce devastating results. It maintains a system—called GETAS—for alerting the public about changes in existential threat levels. It also has in its mission to encourage scientific and technological advancement. In the long run, the Lifeboat Foundation is promoting the establishment of self-sufficient space colonies to help preserve human society.

The foundation was created by American entrepreneur Eric Klien shortly after the terrorist attacks of September 11. It has several Programs and its Advisory Boards include over 1000 scientists and specialists. Lifeboat Foundation sponsors conferences, competitions, and research grants. It is funded entirely through membership dues (as of 19 November 2010: 1 232) and donations (as of 19 November 2010: 249) by individuals and corporations.^[2]

Mission

In its mission statement on the lifeboat website, the organization states it is "dedicated to encouraging scientific advancements while helping humanity survive existential risks and possible misuse of increasingly powerful technologies, including genetic engineering, nanotechnology, and robotics/AI, as we move towards the Singularity." As part of its mission statement, the website indicates it is "pursuing a variety of options, including helping to accelerate the development of technologies to defend humanity, including new methods to combat viruses (such as RNA interference and new vaccine methods), effective nanotechnological defensive strategies, and even self-sustaining space colonies in case the other defensive strategies fail."^[1]

History

Origins

Template:Refimprove Founder Eric Klien's interest in Libertarian principles led him in 1993 to start the Atlantis Project: "to build a floating city in the Caribbean Sea that would be free of the bureaucratic limitations of modern governments". The city was to be called Oceania.^[3] The project was eventually abandoned due to lack of funding.^[4]

The September 11th attacks led Klien to found a humanitarian organization "bent on the preservation of human life, against all odds".^[5] The Lifeboat Foundation was established as a permanent nonprofit organization in October, 2002. Several of those who previously worked on The Atlantis Project joined the new foundation. The Lifeboat Foundation has steadily grown in its membership, financial position, and public exposure since its inception.

Guardian Award

The Guardian Award is presented annually by the Lifeboat foundation to "a respected scientist or public figure who has warned of a future fraught with dangers and encouraged measures to prevent them".^[6] The following persons have received a Guardian award:

• 2004 Martin Rees^[7] (English cosmologist)
• 2005 Ray Kurzweil^[8] (American inventor, author)
• 2006 Robert A. Freitas Jr./Bill Joy^[9] "proposing solutions to the dangers of advanced technology since 2000."
• 2007 James Martin^[10] "in recognition of the achievements of his Future of Humanity Institute in studying global catastrophic risks and impacts of future technologies."
• 2008 Stephen Hawking^[11] "in recognition of his continuous warnings that global catastrophic risks will eventually come and therefore it is unsafe and unwise for all of humanity to be on a single planet."
• 2009 Peter de Jager^[12] "in recognition of his 1993 warning which alerted the world to the potential disaster that might have occurred on January 1, 2000."
• 2010 Russell Schweickart^[6] "in recognition of his efforts for humans to escape the fate of the dinosaurs."

Conferences

The Lifeboat Foundation has co-hosted and sponsored conferences related to its mission. It cosponsored the Global Catastrophic Risks summit in Mountain View, CA.,^[13] and the June 2010 H+ Summit.^[14] The foundation was also media sponsor for the 2009 Singularity Summit in New York City^[15]

Structure

The Lifeboat Foundation is structured with advisory boards, a board of directors, and a general staff. The board of directors includes founder Eric Klien as chairman, and four other directors; the advisory boards comprise a diversity of societal and scientific specialists; and the staff had 21 employees on November 12, 2010.^[16][17] The foundation also has a technology research department that is charged with tracking new technological developments. The Lifeboat Foundation intends to operate as an umbrella organization; in case of growth, it plans on funding larger research grants and prizes rather than hiring more employees.^[18]

Advisory Boards

The organization has formed advisory boards consisting of over 1000 specialists in various disciplines. Board members develop programs, or propose new areas in which the Lifeboat Foundation should be involved.^[19]

There are also over a dozen Scientific Advisory Boards (SABs). The SABs are specifically focused on scientific questions, such as cosmology and neuroscience. Some of the SABs are dedicated to more technical fields like economics and information science. They comprise scientists from around the world, including Nobel Prize winners Clive Granger and Wole Soyinka.^[19]

Finances

The Lifeboat Foundation is funded by donations and membership fees. Donations can go to either the general fund or a specific fund. The general fund is called the Lifeboat Fund and its website states a value of US$ 466,394.62 on October 29, 2010.^[2]

Activities

GETAS

The Global Existential Threat Advisory System (GETAS) is the mechanism the Lifeboat Foundation uses to disseminate information about current existential threats. GETAS consists of five threat levels plus an emergency condition. The levels are designed to be cumulative; that is, the recommended precautions of each level build on those of lower levels. The current GETAS condition is displayed on the Lifeboat Foundation's website, and visitors can subscribe to receive email notifications if the level changes.

The goal of the warnings is to "to create a common vocabulary, context, and structure for an ongoing international, global discussion about the nature of the threats that confront our species on planet Earth and the appropriate measures that should be taken in response."^[20] The system uses the internet to communicate rapidly to subscribers.

GETAS levels are set by "the Executive Director of the Lifeboat Foundation in consultation with the Scientific Advisory Boards".^[20] The levels (and the explanations given by the Lifeboat foundation website) are as follows:

Programs

The Lifeboat Foundation's website states programs to help assess and reduce existential risks. "Shield" programs are attempts to explicitly identify and mitigate threats posed by misuse of a particular technology. Examples include:

• AsteroidShield, aiming at detecting and altering the trajectory of asteroids and comets on a collision course with Earth, thus avoiding impact events.^[21]
• BioShield, aiming at preventing and countering the effects of attacks with biological agents.^[22]
• Space Habitats, designing and encouraging the technology for human colonies in space. The organization's website mentions design on a habitat called Ark 1, a "self-sustaining space habitat being designed to ensure the survival of humanity in the event Earth becomes uninhabitable".^[23]

Hunt-the-Pixel

Gonna break down and add computer games articles. Many will hate this. But that is kind of the point. Not that I want to inconvenience anyone, it is just that there is a widespread prejudice (in the sense of judging something before knowing all the facts), and on WP, systemic bias (with the result of comp games articles being really in an atrocious situation), against video games.

They are violent. They stimulate the acquisitive instinct without giving actual content as a reward. But they do not have to be. This is proven by the rare exceptions. Ultimately, I see vid games as the next incarnation of storytelling in the continuum: Play, film, TV, video games. And it is not coincidence that actors in plays were once looked down on society, whereupon they gradually became famed and respected, whereupon film was looked down upon, etc.

This particular article is a game mechanics article, which means that it discusses games in much the same way that an article about chess moves discusses chess.

Pixelhunting sample (part of blue square)

Hunt-the-pixel (also pixel hunt) is a term used to describe some computer game interfaces involving point and click with a mouse. The term is usually applied to adventure games in which the primary difficulty with some portion of the game lies in finding an object on the screen. In some cases, the required object is quite small, and may be only a few pixels in size. The player may not have any idea what to look for, but often the game cannot progress without finding it. Players often apply the term to any game in which the gameplay is hindered by the frustrating task of determining precisely where on the screen to click. It can be an example of using the deficiencies in the game interface as a challenge, in the same way as treacherous allies and Artificial Stupidity.

An example of pixel hunting appears from The X-Files: The Game, where a vital clue is a bullet exactly 2x2 pixels in size. Other examples can be found in Dark Seed, where the player must locate a small bobby pin lying on the floor of a library, or in Beneath a Steel Sky, where the player must identify and use (without prompting) such tiny items as a 2x2 pixel lump of putty, a thumb-sized metal plate in a poorly lit club, and a barely distinguishable light socket in an abandoned metro tunnel. Pixel hunting is also crucial in Future Wars, where items are not only hard to find and required relatively late in respect to their original location but also, to successfully find an item, the player character has to stand close to its location on the screen. Dreamweb actually incorporates a "magnifying glass" effect with a sighting reticle into its interface to assist the player in locating the many infinitesimal hotspots scattered thickly through its rooms. The problem was endemic in the controversial adventure Limbo of the Lost, which featured minuscule, crucial objects in deep shadow, sometimes off the edge of the screen or obscured by the game's status bar.

Missed objects will not always lead to an unwinnable situation, but sometimes will offer just better alternative approaches to future puzzles, being thus something like Easter eggs.

Some games made by Sierra On-Line, including Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers and portions of the Space Quest and King's Quest series, featured interfaces that at times required a hunt-the-pixel approach. One situation in LucasArts's Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: The Graphic Adventure, which required the player to locate a particular book among several screens full of book stacks. However, LucasArts games have the advantage of a status line indicating the object the cursor is currently over. Another remedy was to make essential objects flash, or some other method to make the element more visible against the benign background, as is done for example at the beginning of King's Quest VI with Alexander's twinkling insignia ring on the beach. In LucasArt's Sam and Max Hit the Road the cursor will have a red border when above a clickable location. The Simon the Sorcerer series avoided pixel hunting all together, by allowing the player to press F10 at any time to highlight all the hotspots on the current screen.

Pixel-hunting is extremely common in games of the escape the room genre. Players must not only find and click on very small items, but sometimes must also find very small arbitrary, and invisible hotspots in order to trigger a change in point of view. Many authors of on-line Flash point-and-click adventure games have disabled the tab key to prevent players from easily cycling through all the hotspots.

The rendering done for objects added to the environment and the environment itself are almost always different, and this makes it easier to find such objects. In particular, panning the player view camera makes such objects pixilate rapidly. This is an effect noticable in MMORPGs and FPS games also.

Henry Sternweiler (born in 1918 or 1919 in Ulm, Germany, died 27 April 2010 in Fairview Park, Ohio) was a United States lieutenant during World War II who is notable for saving millions of military records in Germany after sidestepping an order.^{[1] [2]}

World War II

Sternweiler was drafted into the United States army in 1942 and participated in D-Day plus 1.^[1]

Saving the records

Following the war, Sternweiler flew to Germany, leading a team that processed 18 million military records.^[3][4] Daily, they sent out 12,000 notices to families seeking closure or information. A few weeks later, he was ordered by the United States to destroy the records - however, he helped stall the situation and eventually the French seized control of the records, saving them.^[1]

For his efforts, he was awarded the Federal Cross of Merit on 7 December 2009 by Germany, the nation's highest civilian honor.^[1]

Miscellany

He was discharged from the military in 1956 as a major.^[1]

Relisted AfDs

A good percentage of the AfDs today are relisted ones. I can read two things into this: one, it would seem to be a good thing. Fewer AfDs, perhaps, are being nominated, so there are fewer vultures to hover over things. Or maybe no one is left who bothers with topics they don't have an agenda for. Either way, should end up with fewer deletions. Two, maybe they wacked all the good articles already, and I missed it.

I used to be able to see some kind of thread of a rationale in deletor's arguments. Is it that I am so good at ignoring BS now that it does not affect me any more, or are they just getting stupider? It's not me getting stupider, that's for sure, I can see their motivation, in this case anti-science, specifically anti-psychology and anti-philosophy. I think they are actually stupider, as SYNTH used to be given some reason, or at least it was applied to sources or a specific argument. Now they are just saying synth without any target at all. Even one of the Keep arguments is bogus, as it recommends merging an article about death -anxiety- to one about death -fear-. A list of expert theories in the field is ripped for being "an editor's selection and summary of various theories with no RS to tell us why these are "worth mentioning" or how they relate to one another (or to anything else, for that matter" The title itself says how they related to each other, for god's sake. I just don't see how these people can write in English, if they cannot read it.

Death anxiety

Theories of death anxiety have mainly evolved around the issues of death anxiety and its adjustment. ^[1] Along with Sigmund Freud’s and Ernest Becker’s works, the following works on death anxiety are worth mentioning:

Sigmund Freud’s work

Sigmund Freud (1856–1939) postulated that people express a fear of death, which he called ‘thanatophobia’. However, this was merely a disguise for a deeper source of concern. It was not actually death that people feared, because nobody believes in his or her own death. The unconscious does not deal with the passage of time or with negations. That one's life could and would end simply “does not compute”. Furthermore, that which one does fear cannot be death itself, because one has never died. People who express death-related fears, then, are actually trying to deal with unresolved childhood conflicts that they cannot bring themselves to acknowledge and discuss openly ^[2].

Ernest Becker’s work

Ernest Becker's existential view turned death anxiety theory towards a new dimension. It stated that death anxiety is not only real, but also that it is people's most profound source of concern. He described this anxiety as so intense that it can generate fears and phobias in everyday life. Fears of being alone or in a confined space are some examples of its impact. According to this theory, much of people's daily behavior consists of attempts to deny death and thereby keep their basic anxiety under control ^[3].

Martin Heidegger’s work

Martin Heidegger, the German philosopher, on the one hand showed death as something conclusively determined, in the sense that it is inevitable for every human being, while on the other hand, it unmasks its indeterminate nature via the truth that one never knows when or how death is going to come. Heidegger does not engage in speculation about whether being after death is possible. He argues that all human existence is embedded in time: past, present, future, and when considering the future, we encounter the notion of death. This then creates Angst. Angst can create a clear understanding in one that death is a possible mode of existence, which Heidegger described as “clearing”. Thus, Angst can lead to a freedom about existence, but only if we can stop denying our mortality (as expressed in Heidegger’s terminology as “stop denying being-for-death”). This, in turn creates space for authenticity, where death becomes an enriching, liberating, rather than frightening, aspect of human experience. Unfortunately, Heidegger, as a philosopher, did not make any suggestions as to how to arrive at this state of awareness ^[4].

Paul T P Wong’s work

Through the works of Meaning Management Theory ^[5] Paul T. P. Wong showed human reactions to death as complex, multifaceted and dynamic. His “Death Attitude Profile” identifies three types of death acceptances as Neutral, Approach and Escape acceptances. Apart from acceptances, his work also represents different aspects of the meaning of Death Fear that are rooted in the bases of death anxiety. The ten meanings he propose are finality, uncertainty, annihilation, ultimate loss, life flow disruption, leaving the loved ones, pain and loneliness, prematurity and violence of death, failure of life work completion, and judgment and retribution centered. Most importantly, his Meaning Management Theory itself proposes that 1) Humans are bio-psychosocial-spiritual beings, 2) Human beings are meaning-seeking and meaning making creatures, 3) Two primary motivations for human beings are to survive and to find meaning and reason for survival, 4) Meaning can be found in all situations, and 5) The motivational tendencies of avoidance and approach may complement each other. This theory has a good potential to be utilized in working with people struggling with end-of-life issues.

Mohammad Samir Hossain's work

Mohammad Samir Hossain, a researcher of death attitude ^[6], postulated Death and Adjustment Hypotheses ^[7][8]. In 2007, Mohammad Samir Hossain’s book Quest for a New Death: Death and Adjustment Hypotheses, postulated, in two parts, that adjustment to death is hampered by our preconceived misconceptions about the phenomenon of death. The prevailing perception, in fact our predominant one, is that our entire existence absolutely ends with death. According to Hossain’s theory of adjustment, it should be converted to something like ‘death does not cause an absolute end to existence’. If our conceptualization is changed in this way, it might enhance our adjustment to death. But, as per the second part of this theory, this can only be established when our morality attains a certain level, because decay or deterioration in relation to the concept of death, is very much connected to our code of ethics and beliefs ^[9][10][11].

Other works

Other approaches to death anxiety were introduced in the late twentieth century. Terror management theory is based on a study finding that people who felt better about themselves also reported having less death-related anxiety ^[12]. Another approach named “regret theory” was proposed in 1996 by Adrian Tomer and Grafton Eliason. It approaches the way in which people evaluate the quality or worth of their lives. The prospect of death is likely to make people more anxious if they feel that they have not accomplished, and cannot accomplish, something good in life.
