the technological sublime horror"a swift winged messenger of destruction''

awe

Rev.Ezra Gannett

"[We] border on a spiritual harvestbecause thought now travels by steam and magnetic wires"

Rev.Gardner Spring

The human brain is a curious object and operates in ways that we can't fully comprehend. That said, you can't possibly write down every single word that you see on these slides when they

appear and listen carefully at the same time. Besides, not everything that say will end up on one of these slides. Don't be fooled by the glitz and glamour of so-called "new technology." This is basically just a fancy chalk-board. There were lecture classes at Pitt well before the computer and many classes continueto use chalk-boards and even over-head projectors-which must have been viewed as a brilliant new technology at some earlier period. Ancient peoples' no doubt gave lectures using hieroglyphics and stone carvings. Medieval scholars once copied books by hand and seemed to learn things in the process. Socrates didn't need any tools of writing at all; for him, writing was apharmakon, a kind of drug that had a seductive affect on people, not to mention making it so people didn't have to memorize things in order to bring them to mind. Ifwriting was the new technology of Socrates' age, today our world seems overtaken by screens-computers, cell phones, high definition television sets,GPS units-and the more these dominate our lives the more it seems like the screen is the best source of knowledge and information. Why bother learning your way around Pittsburgh when you can simply plug an address into your GPS unit and follow the screen? While these screens have their uses, we should also think critically about them and what they mean for our culture.

How are our lives different than those of people in Socrates' time, and how much of that has to do with our different technologies? How much ofyour life has been spent looking at a tiny screen in your hand, not to mention larger screens like this one? How is a class that uses powerpoint different from one that uses a chalkboard?

How do students learn or think differently when they look at a powerpoint slide than when they see other sorts of things? Do they? If a powerpoint slide clicks

and no one is there to hear or see it does it matter ? Inany case, promise not to overdue it with the special effects and not to let the slides take the place of good preparation or talking in an organized, interesting way, ifyou promise to pay attention to me and not just this big flashy screen.

asks not W"hat MEDIA DO TO PEOPLE but what PEOPLE DO WITH MEDIA

uses & gratifications

the audience is conceived of as active-media use is seen as goal directed

believes that links between needgratification and media use depend onaudience choice

assumes that the media compete with other sources of need satisfaction

assumes people are a good jud ge of their own media use and need gratifications

believes researchers should suspend value

judgment s about media use

uses & gratifications

needs satisfied by the media:strengthening information, knowledge, and

understanding (cognitive needs)strengthening aestlietic, pleasurable, and

emotional experiences (affective needs)

strengthening credibility, con6dence, stability, and status (integrative needs)

strengthening contact with family, friends,and the world (integrative needs)

escape or tension relief (weakening of

contact with self and one's social roles)

Jeff goes all 1nale 1nodel onus.When genius Alan Cumming cheekily re-created iconic fragrance ads (like the ones below) to promote his Cumming body products, we promptly ripped him off and had our Jeff re-create the gorgeous ad for the perfume we're loving most right now, EsteeLauder's Youth Dew Amber Nude. Tom Ford, we hope you're flattered by Jeff's take on it: "It's a bit absurd that prior to this photo shoot someone in the office punned that the picture would end up being a 'Youth Don't.' Why? The image turned out so ravishing, didit not? And now Ilook at people who use self-tanner as crusaders.Slightly misguided crusaders, but Iget it (despite me looking like a melting stick of adobe-colored butter)! Ball's in your court, Cumming. Can you top this?"

"It is natural, it is a privilege, I will go farther, it is a right, which

all free men claim, that they are entitled to complain when they are hurt. They have a right publicly to remonstrate against the abuses of power in the strongest terms, to put their neighbors upon their guard against the craft or open violence of men in authority, and to assert with courage the sense they have of the blessings of liberty,

the value they put upon it, and their resolution at allhazards to preserve it as one of the greatest blessings heaven can bestow:'

"The question before the Court and you, Gentlemen of the jury, is not of small or private concern. It is not the cause of one poor printer, nor of New York alone, which you are now trying.No! ...It is the best cause. It is the cause of liberty.And I make no doubt butyour upright conduct this day will not only entitle you to the love and esteem ofyour fellow citizens, but every man who prefers freedom to a life of slavery will bless and honor you as men who have baffled the attempt of tyranny, and by an impartial and uncorrupt verdict have laid a noble foundation for securing to ourselves, our

Downs, Ph.D., author of Why Does This Keep Happening to Me? (Fire· side). "But facing unpleasant emo tions 1s the only way to start fixing what's bothering you." When AlanBall-Oscar-winningscreenwriter of American Beauty and creator of HBO's Six Feet Under-was 13, his older sister was killed in a car accident whi e driving him to a music lesson. For 25 years, he tried to ignore his sorrow, but it caught up with him. "Grief is a primal thing, and the only way out of it is through it," he has said. "Having come out on the other side...really made me a stronger and richer person." No matter how great or small }<)Ur pain, healthy wallowingis a crucial part of handling it. Here,Downs' tips for feeling what's real:

Dig into your dumps. Oon't just dwell on negative feel ngs if you don't know why you have them. Instead, Downssays toask your self, What's changed for me recently? Oon't leave anythingout-the culprit could even be a physical factor like lack of sleep or exercise.

Ment.alhealthun-bulletinThediseases feel real, but no HMO will cover them.

•ApologitisA needless-blame-takingdisorder signaled by owruse of the phrase "I'msosorry." Acute cases have been known to apolog12eto people who bump into them.The cure: Try "Oops."

•lndecisionism Whenit's 4:30 but there are stillseven restaurants under consideration for tonight's dinner, indecisionism is to blame. The wish toabandon responsibility isa risk factor. A radicaltreatmentinvolving flipping a coin isin final testing.

•Man-orexia This insatiable hunger for anythingmale causes the sufferer to put her life on holdwhenever a set of "t:fchromosomes crosses her path. One remedyis an all-girl retreat, but more serious cases may need a few hoursin front of WWF Smackdo.vn to remember just how unappealing men can be.

•Screw-you-enza Morecommon duringwarm weather, thisailment prompts sufferers to cancel prearranged plans "just because."It wasonce thought to becontagious, but clingy relativesand oversocial peers are more likely the cause. Treatment includes, but is notlimited to, high doses of guilt.

FEELINGBAD?

Don't Swallow

Watch your timing.It's not smart to wallow in the middle of a meeting, but you can devote your lunch hour to a box of Puffs Plus. If the cause of your grief is profound, take a mental health day--0r even a vacation-andgive yourself the OK todo 100 percent nothing.

Don't stew si ently. The point is toidentify what's botheringyou and get it out. So instead of just letting your feelings circle around inside your head, write them down or contact a palwho really lstens.

Slowly smileagain.limeto rejoin theliving? Visit aspot

you'resure will make you feel good. "A change of scenery gets your mind moYing forward," says Downs. But if more than a week passes and you feel thingswon't get better, it may be timeto seek counseling.--LESLIE YAZEL
