Trekkiepalooza
2 fundraiser falls short of expectations |
"Trekkiepalooza
2: Resistance Is Futile" was held Saturday, October 20, at
the Tucker Saloon in Tucker, as a fundraising event to benefit
TrekTrax
Atlanta. In addition to screening a variety
of Star Trek fan films, providing a wide selection
of Star Trek games to play, offering all sorts of Star
Trek and general merchandise for sale and serving a delicious
selection of alien shooters, the event also presented the
stage debut of local cover band The Good for Nothings
and featured singer/songwriter Sean Kagalis as the
headlining act.
Trekkiepalooza 2 was a follow-up to our first fundraising
event, "Trekkiepalooza!", held on a Sunday in July, which
brought out a couple dozen people and raised a little over
$600. Both before and after the July event, we heard
from many people who expressed regret at being unable to attend
and that they would have attended if it had been held on a
Saturday instead of a Sunday. With that in mind, we
scheduled our second event on a Saturday and, understandably,
expected a larger crowd to attend, which would help us raise
an even larger sum of money for the convention. We came
loaded for bear and was expecting a really good crowd.
Imagine our surprise and disappointment when attendance for
Trekkiepalooza 2 barely broke a mere dozen people. This
is a particular shame because our two musical acts held nothing
back and put on outstanding performances that were truly worthy
of a full house. As a result of the poor attendance,
donations and merchandise sales were down significantly from
our previous event. Gross receipts were a paltry $177
and after a few fundraising expenses, net proceeds were only
$140... less than a quarter of the money raised in July.
In the month or so since Trekkiepalooza 2, no particular reason
has come to light as to why the event drew so many fewer people
and raised so much less money than the Sunday in July event.
Announcements were made and sent to all the same people
and in all the same places as before, all of them emphasizing
it being on a Saturday, and the only other local event that
we knew of that might have been a conflict for some folks
was the Stone Mountain Highland Games. As far as we
could tell then or can tell now, there was no good reason
for the event to have done so poorly, unless it's a really
simple reason that no one will admit to: Nobody cares any
more.
Is that it? Does nobody care any more?
|
GOAL:
$5,500
|
|
|
|
RAISED:
$1,223
22.4%
|
Capt Eric
L. Watts has been working nonstop on other projects to
raise money for TrekTrax Atlanta, having sold more than $225
worth of personal effects on eBay, as well as advertising
Star Trek-related autographs and t-shirts on Facebook
to raise the badly needed money required to keep the convention
running. All total fundraising efforts to date, which
stood at 11.3% of goal in August, now stands at 22.4% of goal.
In dollar amounts, we have raised $1,223 of our $5,500
goal. We still need to raise another $4,267 in the next
couple of months just to keep TrekTrax Atlanta alive.
There are currently no plans to hold another Trekkiepalooza
fundraiser. Raising $140 doesn't make the last event
a failure (losing money would have been a failure),
but certainly, considering the time, effort, expense, manpower
and volunteer participation required to make such an event
worthwhile, those resources need to be better utilized to
produce a more successful and profitable fundraising campaign.
To that end, we are currently developing two different
crowdfunding campaigns that will allow us to reach out to
our friends for support across the country and around the
world. Clearly, the amount of money we need to raise
in the next two months exceeds what could be reasonably expected
of our Atlanta-area friends to donate by themselves. By
moving our fundraising efforts to multiple crowdfunding platforms,
hopefully we can reach our goal and be able to hold a really
great convention next April. When these two online campaigns
are launched, we will need your help in spreading the word
to all your Facebook friends with your words of encouragement
to support this very important cause.
Be sure to check out the photos from Trekkiepalooza 2 below
as well as on its Flickr page. |

Last
chance to announce your candidacy for Commanding Officer
|
 Captain
Eric L. Watts' third and possibly last two-year term
as Commanding Officer of the USS Republic will be coming
to an end next month. As of press time, no
one has announced their candidacy for the position.
There is very little time left to hold an election. Anyone
who is interested in the positon must
announce their candidacy before the next issue of The Republiqué
is published, which will likely be in two weeks. Candidates
should notify
the Captain of their decision so that their candidacies
can be included in the newsletter.
 Candidates
for the position must be a member in good standing of STARFLEET
International, must have taken and passed Officers Training
School (OTS) and Officers Command College (OCC), and must
be at least 18 years of age. Members interested
in taking OTS and/or OCC should visit the STARFLEET Academy
web site. In
accordance with the Republic's Rank
Assignment & Promotions Policy, members who take and
pass both courses receive an automatic promotion to Lieutenant,
Junior Grade (Lt. JG).
If and when any candidates are announced, all members in good
standing will be asked to cast their vote for the candidate
they want to lead and administrate this chapter for the next
two years.
As of November 4, there are three members of the Republic
in good standing who hold the necessary credentials to hold
the office of Commanding Officer. In alphabetical
order, they are:
| • Commander
David Churvis |
| • Captain
Matt Ebeling |
| • Captain
Eric L. Watts |
No currently eligible member has, so far, announced his candidacy. Eight
members of the Republic currently hold an OTS diploma
but need an OCC diploma to be eligible for CO.
If more than one eligible person announces his or her candidacy,
paper ballots will be mailed to each member in good standing
in late November. Cast ballots can then be mailed
to the chapter's mailing address or delivered by hand at the
Republic's Christmas Party in December. Ballots
will be counted by three noncandidate members and the results
announced during the evening. The new Commanding
Officer, if any, will officially assume office on January
1, 2013. |

ABOUT
THE REPUBLIC
|
| The
USS Republic NCC-1371 was originally commissioned
as a chapter of STARFLEET International on May 14, 1988,
at the Dixie-Trek convention in Atlanta, Georgia. As
of November 18, 2012, the Republic crew includes 38
members who are active members of STARFLEET in good
standing. |
| The
Republic plans and coordinates an active schedule
of events for its members, frequently partnering with other
local science fiction groups in the Atlanta area for joint
activities, but does not hold meetings on a consistently
fixed date each month. |
|
Because
the USS Republic is a duly commissioned chapter
of STARFLEET International and is bound and governed by
its Constitution and By-Laws, membership in STARFLEET
is a prerequisite for membership in the Republic. Combined
annual dues for both groups are $25 per person and is
collected by the chapter (family discounts are available
with certain conditions and restrictions). Membership
in the Republic includes access to our YahooGroups
message board, voting privileges in chapter elections
and a personalized laminated membership card which entitles
the member to discounts and rebates on products and services
offered by our Member Benefits Program Partners. Additional
information on Republic membership and how to join
and reenlist is on our award-winning web site.

| J.
G. Hertzler Joins Star Trek: Renegades Cast |
|
By
Anthony Pascale
November 19, 2012
|
| In
September, TrekMovie reported that Tim Russ and Walter Koenig
were reprising their Star Trek roles for a new independent
movie, Star Trek: Renegades. The project has
just one week left for its Kick-Starter funding and they
are only $25,000 short of their target. Also, J. G.
Hertzler has joined the cast, which now includes nine veteran
Trek actors. |
|
|
| Star
Trek: Renegades is a brand new independent Trek
film, being developed by the same team that created Star
Trek: Of Gods and Men. This time, they have gone
to the crowdfunding site KickStarter to finance the project. |
| The
project's goal is to bring in $200,000 by next Monday. Currently,
they have a bit more than $175,000, so they need less than
$25K. You can pledge as little as $10, which gets
your name on the official web site and full access to exclusive
web content. $25 gets you access to an HD version of the
final film along with extras. And there are additional
perks for higher donation rates, including getting props,
set visits and even a role in the film. |
| J.G.
Hertzler Joins Expanding Cast of Trek Vets |
| The
latest Trek vet actor to join the cast is J. G. Hertzler,
best known for playing the Klingon Martok on Deep Space
Nine. Hertzler will be playing Borrada, the main
antagonist in Renegades. Other vets in addition
to Russ and Koenig who have signed on include Gary Graham
(Soval, Star Trek: Enterprise) and Garrett Wang (Harry
Kim), Robert Picardo (The Doctor), Ethan Phillips (Neelix),
Manu Intiraymi (Icheb) and Richard Herd (Admiral Paris),
all from Star Trek: Voyager). |
| The
series has also picked up a number of non-Trek vets.
The role of Captain Lexxa Singh will be played by
Adrienne Wilkinson (Xena, Star Wars: The Clone
Wars). Other non-Trek vets who have joined
the cast include Larissa Gomes (Saw films), Courtney
Peldon (Entourage) and Vic Mignogna (Dragonball
Z). |

| Pentagon
Wants to Know: "Did Jesus Die for Klingons, Too?" |
|
By
Stephen Dinan
November 15, 2012
|
| From
a workshop on whether Jesus' salvation would apply to aliens
to determining the color of the feathers on a 150-million-year-old
creature deemed the Earth's first bird, the Pentagon has
spent money on some questionable projects, according to
Sen. Tom Coburn. |
| At
a time when many Republicans argue the Defense Department
cannot afford new spending cuts, Mr. Coburn, Congress's
top waste-watcher, released a report Thursday arguing that
in fact the Pentagon is awash in billions of dollars of
non-security spending that should be cut. |
| "The
American people expect the Pentagon's $600 billion annual
budget to go toward our nation's defense," the Oklahoma
Republican said. "That isn't happening. Billions
of defense dollars are being spent on programs and missions
that have little or nothing to do with national security,
or are already being performed by other government agencies." |
| Mr.
Coburn said that over the next decade, the Defense Department
will spend $6 billion on non-military research, $9 billion
on running grocery stores, and some $37 billion on support
and supply services that could better be done by civilians
or the private sector. |
| Among
the more curious spending was: |
| •
$300,000 spent by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research
to fund Brown University's research into archaeopteryx,
the 150-million-year-old early bird, in which the researchers
determined the creature likely had black feathers |
| •
an Office of Naval Research research project that helped
spawn Caffeine Zone 2, an iPhone application that tells
people how to schedule their coffee breaks |
| •
$1.5 million to develop a special new roll-up beef jerky,
which Mr. Coburn said was funded by taking money out of
a weapons program |
| •
$100,000 for a 2011 workshop on interstellar space travel
that included a session entitled "Did Jesus Die for Klingons,
Too?" The session probed how Christian theology would
apply in the event of the discovery of aliens |
| But
Mr. Coburn said the problems went beyond bad program funding
choices. |
| He
said the military now has more generals and admirals per
troop than it did at the height of the Cold War. He
recommended cutting 200 generals and admirals, which he
said would also cut 800 support personnel, for a savings
of $800 million over the next decade. |

| Did
Jesus Die for Klingons, Too? The Pentagon Wants to
Know |
|
By
Eamon Javers
November 15, 2012
|
| According
to a new report from Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., the Defense
Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) sponsored an effort
called the 100-Year Starship initiative, which advocates
human interstellar travel. |
| As
part of that initiative, DARPA---the legendary advanced
research arm of the Pentagon that's known for sponsoring
way-out-there research---last year paid nearly $100,000
for a workshop that included a discussion session entitled
"Did Jesus Die for Klingons, Too?" The seminar focused
on the implications for Christianity if intelligent life
were to be found on other planets, the report said. |
| Klingons
are a fictional warlike alien race from the long running
Star Trek franchise. But the theological question
could be just as easily posed of Romulans, Vulcans or even
Ewoks, although Ewoks are from Star Wars, and are
more cuddly than Klingons. |
| Coburn's
point is that in a time of staggering budget deficits and
potentially rising taxes, the Pentagon---even in its pointy-headed
research department---ought to be more judicious with taxpayer
dollars. |
| Coburn's
report notes that headliners at the event included former
Star Trek actors LeVar Burton and Nichelle Nichols,
and it included an event called an "intergalactic gala celebration"
to which attendees were encouraged to wear "starship cocktail
attire." |
| The
Klingon discussion is just one example of Pentagon waste
drawing Coburn's ire. |
| Coburn
wrote that the Department of Defense has become the "Department
of Everything," engaging in a wide range of unnecessary
activities, from conducting non-military research to running
a redundant elementary school system to operating grocery
stores. Just the overhead costs alone at the Pentagon,
Coburn pointed out, are greater than the GDP of entire nations
like Israel and the UAE. |
| All
told, he said the Department of Defense budget could be
slashed by $69.7 billion over 10 years without impacting
America's fighting strength. |
| Pentagon
officials defended their spending Thursday. |
| "The
DoD budget is aligned to strategic priorities we have identified
to keep America safe and maintain the strongest military
in the world," Pentagon spokesperson Lt. Col. Elizabeth
Robbins said in an emailed statement. "Over the past
several years, we have redoubled our efforts to make better
use of the taxpayer's defense dollar and meet our fiscal
responsibilities." |
| Other
programs Coburn singled out include a $1.5 million effort
to develop a new type of beef jerky that is flat like a
Fruit Roll-Up, rather than round, like a Slim Jim. The
report noted that "a variety of flavors are being developed,
including salami, chipotle, turkey, pork and smoked ham.
There is also a product made from fish," but the food
scientist involved in the process said, "the recipe needs
to be tweaked to make it less fishy." |
| And
Coburn also drilled down on Pentagon-funded research into
the swimming patterns of groups of goldfish. The report
noted that researchers claimed "experiments on fish paired
with mathematical models and computer simulations 'can ultimately
provide insights into humans’ political behavior.'" |
| And
what about the eternal souls of those Klingons? According
to media accounts, the philosophy professor invited to give
the lecture argues that Jesus did not die to save them.
If Klingons sin, they're on their own. |
