This would be fine except for the fact that the cable signal won't make it 500 meters. That' if your planning on splitting off of neighbor's house. Even at 500 meters with mainline coax an amplifier or Line Extender is going to be needed. Those alone will cost more than the cable at about 2 grand each. If fiber is used, you probably won't need a repeater, but your gonna need a node at the end and that's an easy 5 grand too. The $10,000 might be a lot of money, and might be inflated a bit, but it's not that far off. I'd recommend using a cell phone connection if available. Should be able to get 1-3 meg via USB cable if there is service there. And unlimited access shouldn't cost much per month.

Vatican Says Alien Life Plausible 775

An anonymous reader writes "According to BBC, the director of the Vatican Observatory stated in an article titled 'Aliens Are My Brother' that intelligent beings created by God could exist in outer space. 'The search for forms of extraterrestrial life does not contradict belief in God. — Just as there are multiple forms of life on earth, so there could exist intelligent beings in outer space created by God.' Mind that this is not the same director who said that evolution is more than a mere theory — that was Father Coyne. I myself agree. There might be intelligent beings created by God in outer space even if there are none here on earth."
