The next time Gondolier Numero Uno Sheldon Adelson decides to go after the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, he better watch out for lightning bolts. It turns out that in a couple of weeks the convention center will be consecrated by God. Or a reasonable facsimile thereof. For two days � Nov. 8 and 9 � the Paradise Road venue will be the site of Godblogcon, which is designed to teach attendees how to help "Christians engage the new media" and be "empowered to engage it effectively for the cause of Christ." The target audience are "culturally concerned Christians" - isn't everybody? - so the convention should be an, ahem, religious experience. Or a reasonable facsimile thereof.
