Definitely glad for all the good news there, Suzi!
My food is problematic.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Halp please.
"...based on a multitude of data that IS not..." or "...based on a multitude of data that ARE not..."???
I'm making better progress on my paper today. Which must needs since it is due at midnight. I plan to work 50 minutes and then take a 10 minute break each hour. Half an hour for dinner. I need to write at least a page an hour - which is going to be challenging as I need to pull research support as I go. I have a list of potential resources, so it won't be as start from scratch as it could have been.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I would say multitude is.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
In medical writing, "data" is a plural noun, so it takes "are". I don't know what the accepted standard is in nonmedical writing. Even on NPR I hear them say "data is."

Hmmmm. Well, so far the professor hasn't dinged me on grammar issues and there are arguments for both sides, so I think I'll run with is.
Thank you. Four pages of twelve done.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
You're modifying multitude (is), not data (are).

I'm at 8 pages or 2/3rd done.
It is SLOW going due to the need to research and cite corroborating peer reviewed articles. Thankfully I have a student PMI membership and can access their library in addition to the school library.
I have 5 hours to do at least 4 more pages. Ok, 4.5 so I can take a dinner break. I'm also trying to take a 5 minute internet break and a 5 minute leave my desk break each hour.
