Acknowledgements To Antje Keahiolalo, for the support: morale, financial, and critical; for the incredibly thorough and countless readthroughs, refurbishments, and rewrites; for delaying the fruition of your life plans so I might reach for a life-goal milestone; and for ultimately putting up with me in those unique ways a wife with your capacity so elegantly does, Ich möchte mich recht herzlish bedanken sehr. To Dr. Kirby Gilliland, for all the reasons a floundering student is indebted to a mentor of such caliber, for sticking with me through the challenges we hurdled when, as far as I can see, there was no motivation to do so except for the belief that, with guidance, I could succeed, and for being for me the example of how to personally define perseverance, you have my sincere and permanent gratitude. To Dr. Jessica Bellinger, for the many draft reads, for the open-ended soundboard discussions over the chess board and coffee, for managing my health and recovery, and for helping me keep my heart and my head focused over the years, I owe you a debt of gratitude I can never repay, though I will continue to try.
