Saturday, the 14th of April (today) I will not be in WV much. I'm going to go get Sherry and her belongings with her father. I love her... So, she's moving back her to me. So I can move out, so we can get married. Wonderful. So yeah, won't be here.

I have been looking for these two paragraphs for a long time. I've been told, and quite frequently, that I'm like Trent. Everyone at work says it. So, I know you don't know who his is. A LITTLE background. This comes from the Resident Evil: Code Veronica book, (#6). On page 240, it is the third and second to last paragraphs. If you know anything about RE, you'll know who Wesker is, if not, just know he's a very talented, and very experienced, warrior, between the army and such. He is a very good judge of character. And he knows what he's talking about, no matter what. He's very smooth, and is scared of nothing. This passage is written from "him," but still third person. Trent, the man referenced, is soley in the books, and you'll have to read book #0-6 to totally understand him anyway. Without further ado..

   "And he'd never admit it out loud, but Trent scareed him. He was so smooth, well-mannered and soft-spoken - but with a glitter in his eyes that made hiim always seem to be laughing, like everything was a joke and he was the only one who got it. In Wesker's experience, the ones who laughed were the most dangerous; they didn't feel like they had anything to prove, and were usually at least slightly insane.

   "I'm just glad we're on the same side, Wesker assured himself, believe it because he wanted to. Because going up against someone like Trent was a bad, bad plan."


And it seems, here recently... that side of me is coming out more and more... the bad part.. the TRUELY bad part... I like it. I want more of it.

I should have mentioned this. Hz is the wave frequency. The higher the Hz, the higher the pitch. A440 means that the A4, or the A above middle C (C4) is tuned to 440Hz. A tempered scale means that everything is perfectly in tune, based on the A4 frequency. So, my G4 is a perfect fifth above middle C, or seven semitones. Most men can't hit it full-out, so it's "high for a male". The A#/Bb4 is two semitones below high C (C5). So it's pretty high "for a male."

I'm extremely wore out today, mentally and physically. I'm like DANG! I'm going to pass out momentarily. I was practicing my "high-chest" singing coordination. BLEH is me now. I've never taken it higher than a G4 before. Well, today, I decided to do it. It wore me OUT. Here's proof. Two pictures. One is a G4, the other is a A#/Bb4. Both of which are slightly sharp. A true G4 (A440, tempered scale) is 392Hz. I was using 395Hz. A true A#/Bb4 is 466Hz and I was using 467Hz. ^^ Just so you know, a pure chest voice for me stops at F4. High-chest starts on F#/Gb4. I cannot start high-chest lower, and cannot stop pure chest higher.

Here are the screen captures to prove it. In the bottom right of the programs window, you'll see the Hz display. In the top left section, is the Waveform Envelope. The wider the waveform, the stronger the signal, so the louder the sound, and the more it carries. Below it is the Spectrogram. This shows my overtones for a "remembered" six second period. It records left to right. So the left was earlier than the right. It's the same "frozen frame in both pictures, you'll see. What DOES change is the green verticle bar, which on the left half shows you where I am in the time frame. The Power Spectrum (right) is different in both. The graph here is for the harmonics and partials for the fundamental frequency (pitch hit). Each peak is a harmonic. The first is the Fundamental frequencey. The rest are harmonics. Here, the verticle green bar moves left to right, which is equivalent to moving up and down amongst the pitches on the Spectrogram. So, the left side is the lowest pitch (G and A#), and the right is the highest pitch recorded as an overtone. To prove it's rather chesty, look at the Spectrogram. A mixed or falsetto sound will have significantly less overtones. Each horizantal squiggly (or peak in the Power Spectrum) is an overtone. =P Also, the higher the peak in the Power Spectrum, the louder the tone being made.

Before anything... I see stuff like this, and no I'm not seeing things. Lol.

This is this guy's aura. They can't see the colours of the aura on film, so the colour means nothing. They all come out like this.

I updated Beyond Tenor's Music Page. Most of the pages that are posted are complete. Some of them aren't... but, they have a direction to follow now, and an order. It isn't much as of yet... but you just wait.

I never knew this... and I'm obsessed with this game... I should have made the connections sooner.

One-Winged Angel

Safer Sephiroth is the final form of Sephiroth seen in the original game. Though one more battle follows Safer Sephiroth's defeat, it is a scripted battle purely for plot purposes and cannot be lost, so the fight with Safer Sephiroth is essentially the final battle of the game as far as gameplay itself is concerned. It follows the battles with Jenova-SYNTHESIS and Bizarro Sephiroth, and after Safer Sephiroth is defeated, a staged battle, a lengthy final cutscene, and the credits follow.

It is often believed that the name "Safer Sephiroth" is a mis-romanization of the boss' name when translating from Japanese, as was the case with Helletic Hojo, which should have been translated as "Heretic Hojo." A common rumor is that "Safer" is a misromanization of "Seraph" due to Safer Sephiroth's angelic appearance. Although this is inaccurate, Sephiroth does bear many similarities to a seraph, as seraphim are described in the Hebrew Bible, being humanoid angels with six wings: "With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying."[18] Safer Sephiroth can easily be interpreted as bearing the appearance of a seraph with an additional wing added in place of his right arm.

However, the origin of the name "Safer Sephiroth" is Hebrew, just as the lone name "Sephiroth" is (the boss' name as written in Japanese is "セーファ・セフィロス," or "Sēfa Sefirosu"; note that "safer" can also be transliterated as "sefer," "sapher," and "sepher"). "Safer" is Hebrew for "book," while "sephiroth" is Hebrew for "numbers," and, thus, the boss' name translates to "Numbers Book," or—more accurately—"Book of Numbers," one of the many Kabbalistic references in Final Fantasy VII. The Safer Sephiroth is a Kabbalistic treatise concerning the evolution of God from a being of inactive rest to one of active creation. It deals with the ten Sephiroth, a central concept of the Kabbalah. This may relate to the origins and purpose of Jenova or the Lifestream, and the concept of "numbers" most obviously alludes to Sephiroth's "clones," each bearing a numbered tattoo.

Safer Sephiroth is also known as the "One-Winged Angel," "One-Winged Angel" being the name of the well-known song which accompanies the battle with Safer Sephiroth. The title is also significant to Sephiroth's character due to its fallen angel connotation, a symbolic form of reference for those who have fallen from grace. To some, the name "One-Winged Angel" seems strange, as Safer Sephiroth has a total of seven wings. However, the original Japanese name is "片翼の天使 (Katayoku no Tenshi)," which means "an angel with wings on one side," rather than an angel with only one wing. However, "One-Winged Angel" is most likely in reference to the wing that replaces Sephiroth's right arm.

Sherry Jo sent me this, and I cracked up. I so need this in my house just to have it... And if you don't understand why I say that, I'd be HONOURED to explain it.

I stoled this from Sherry Jo!


A University professor at a well known institution of
higher learning challenged his students with this
question. "Did God create everything
that exists?"

A student bravely replied, "Yes he did!"

"God created everything?" The professor asked.

"Yes sir, he certainly did," the student replied.

The professor answered, "If God created everything;
then God created evil. And, since evil exists, and
according to the principal that our works define who
we are, then we can assume God is evil."

The student became quiet and did not respond to the
professor's hypothetical definition.. The professor,
quite pleased with himself, boasted to the students
that he had proven once more that the Christian faith
was a myth.

Another student raised his hand and said, "May I ask
you a question, professor?"

"Of course", replied the professor.

The student stood up and asked, "Professor, does cold
exist?"

"What kind of question is this? Of course it exists.
Have you never been cold?"

The other students snickered at the young man's
question. The young man replied, "In fact sir, cold
does not exist. According to the laws of
physics, what we consider cold is in reality the
absence of heat. Everybody or object is susceptible to
study when it has or transmits energy, and heat is
what makes a body or matter have or transmit energy.
Absolute zero (-460 F) is the total absence of heat;
and all matter becomes inert and incapable of reaction
at that temperature. Cold does not exist. We have
created this word to describe how we feel if we have
no heat."

The student continued, "Professor, does darkness
exist?"

The professor responded, "Of course it does."

The student replied, "Once again you are wrong sir,
darkness does not exist either. Darkness is in reality
the absence of light. Light we can study, but not
darkness. In fact, we can use Newton's prism to break
white light into many colors and study the various
wavelengths of each color. You cannot measure
darkness. A simple ray of light can break into a world
of darkness and illuminate it. How can you know how
dark a certain space is? You measure the amount of
light present. Isn't this correct? Darkness is a term
used by man to describe what happens when
there is no light present."

Finally the young man asked the professor, "Sir, does
evil exist?"

Now uncertain, the professor responded, "Of course, as
I have already said. We see it everyday. It is in the
daily examples of man's inhumanity to man. It is in
the multitude of crime and vi olence everywhere in the
world. These manifestations are nothing else but evil.

To this the student replied, "Evil does not exist,
sir, or at least it does not exist unto itself. Evil
is simply the absence of God. It is just like darkness
and cold, a word that man has created to describe the
absence of God. God did not create evil. Evil is the
result of what happens when man does not have God's
love present in his heart. It's like the cold that
comes when there is no heat, or the darkness that
comes when there is no light."

The professor sat down.

The young man's name -- Albert Einstein

I love my friends..

You're my friend. I'm over protective of the people I care for most.

My mommy scared me.

We were listening to the radio, and I sarcastically said, "Just you wait, Mommy. One of these days that'll be me you're listening to on the radio, and I'll send you money every week so you'll be taken care of really good." And.. the scary part: she looked at me, completely as serious as I had ever seen her.... and she said, "I know. You will."

Akuma-Sama is scared.

Hi! It's [Khronos Atmosphaera] again. Joshua asked me to post a diary... lol, but I had already posted one before he asked me too. Even in the pain he's in, he thinks about Elftown... ha ha!

Anyway, Joshua is doing fine. He will be in the hospital until at least Tuesday, but he is recoving alright as far as I know.

^^ ~Tenshi/ Sherry Jo

What a day... I've been home since Wednesday, March 14th at 11:30am. I haven't left the house until today, at 1pm. Why? I thought I had the flu or something. My body hurts.... mainly my stomach. Pain comes in surges... who knows when or how long it will last. I cried last night. Just ask Sherry Jo. Anyway, I left to go to the Health Plus in the area. It's a mini-ER... Well, it wasn't bad. I told them EVERYTHING. The doc pushed on parts of my stomach, most of it hurt, some didn't.... but when he got to where my apendix is supposed to be... OUCH OUCH OUCH! I about screamed. He noticed and pulled back. They did some blood work. They did a urine test. Other than the fact my urine was DARK BROWN and DRY (it was liquid, just dehydrated), there wasn't too much of a problem with it. My blood showed EXCESSIVELY HIGH amounts in the white blood count. That means I have an infection of somesort. Well, they can't do catscans and the like at the HP... so I have to go to the real hospital's ER. He did give me all the paperwork for what they had done. He gave me these options as the problem:

a) apendix (what he thinks it is)
b) liver
c) kidney
d) gallbladder
e) my blood itself

He thinks it's A... which means he suggests it gets taken out NOW. I don't like the sound of that... but I'm going to the ER when mommy gets home. I don't know why she isn't yet.

17:36:05 Zapinc: No, thats just my apocalyptic approach on Anti-God people, the rest of the Wiki are peaceful, loving folk, while I have more violent and Punishing views, Im the sort of person who starts wars over religeon

But - If its a display of Intimate knowledge and understanding, and someone who you can NEVER defeat in a wit-showdown, [Kurai Tenma] and [Rizzen] will wipe the floor with you, I will just bark at you and after im finished, go out and knife one of your kind...
Let it be Jahovas witness, Scientologist or athiest, i dont care, they all deserve the same punishment...

17:50:08 Protective Akuma: Whoa... was I just referred to as wise?

Okay... I'll do the definitions from the PRIOR entry tomorrow, I need to update it... IN THE MEANTIME... I'm tired of repeating this, and if you've heard it, you've only heard the short version... and I have something unusual in my current condition... it's all in here.

Okay, so.... I've got a gash, approximately 4-5 inches (10-12.5 cm) long on the top of my head, about the same distance from my ear and eye (both left side). So, it's 4-5 inches long, and 4-5 inches above my left ear. This are rough guesses... Lol.

Anyway, it happened Monday at work. Bummer. I work in a heavy machinery environment. Well... someone stuck scaffolding (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scaffolding) so that it was hanging about six feet off the ground. The corner (I mean like a huge area, just towards the corner of the building) was VERY dimly lit. Couldn't barely see. My safety glasses obscure vision badly above eye level... so I couldn't see this "misplaced scaffolding" (as work declared it). WHAM. Ran into it full force. That's why I have the gash. It cut deep. Got light-headed, so I bent down to sit and do what I had intended to do.

I started sweating, I thought, so I wiped my left brow... and brushed my hair (to get rid of any sweat in it)... and my left hand came away COVERED in blood. I was light-headed from the loss of it. I stood back up... evidently I moved some of the scaffolding I hit it so hard, because I hit it again, this time JUMPING UP INTO IT... hit just about the same spot. Got to the ER within thirty minutes... had to wait TWO HOURS for someone to even invite me back, and we had showed them, and everything, and they said I was the most serious case... which means priority, guess not.

Anyway, he gave me stitches, sent me on my merry way.. OH! Not to mention my tetanus(sp?) shot. It hurts now, even two days later. It feels like someone hit me full force with a ball bat.

Okay, I was talking to Dante (voice coach) via AIM last night... He asked me about my hearing, and I had been too concerned with my actual scalp to pay attention... I've developed some pretty bad tinnitus. It's the constant buzzing ring in my ears.. medical condition. Can be permanent... It's throwing my hearing off. I hear BAD chords... or did...The buzzing is about Eb5, slightly sharp. Anyway... it's like a mix of a piece of steel tubing that's been hit to ring (much like a bell) and radio static. Awful to listen to, but I'm adjusting. Dante and I seem to feel it will be permanent, and I'll adjust to where it doesn't bother me.

Evidently, based on tonight, that's not all of it. I heard the piano after church, and my instinctual thought was "That's a bad shade of blue." I don't know if it's a fluke... or true development of synesthesia (see: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/synesthesia). I kinda hope it's a fluke, and then at the same time I'm hoping it's not.... but we shall see. Dante is studying vocal pathology, and they study the hearing, too. He said they have been taught that this type of trauma can lead to tinnitus, and upon healing (whether or not tinnitus is permanent), if the hearing improves, it will most likely go beyond it's previous state... in my case it would have to be synesthesia. I have great hearing. If it doesn't improve nothing. So... could it be going that direction? I have no clue... scares me..

Other than that, I just have a head ache and want my love to hold me.

'Night.

Well, last night was my second lesson. I was told I'm the fastest learner he's had. I'm past the first level of "constriction-free" method. That being, I can do a lower pitched (meaning below middle C) and a falsetto (pure head) without constriction at all. I'm also noticing constriction by feeling, and sound. I can hear it in other people now, too. He said that was unusual.

I can sing a light mix, and up to a G, with very little constriction, but I can't use the twang effect at the same time...


I so need to put up definitions for all this. I'm sure people are saying "Falsetto??? He's not singing full voiced."
