The aerospace medical community continues to be an extremely di- verse and interesting group that strives to meet the challenges of civil, commercial, and military aviation and space operations in the 21st century. When intro- duced as the new president of the Aerospace Medical Association (AsMA) at Honors Night in Orlando, I an- nounced three major priorities for the Association for completion during this term. These included the devel- opment of a Foundation to support aerospace medi- cine, assuring that the meeting in New Orleans follow- ing Katrina would be successful, and making AsMA more responsive to the important aeromedical issues of Richard T.

  • The Machine Age in the 1920S
    BECOMING MODERN: AMERICA IN THE 1920S PRIMARY SOURCE COLLECTION ONTEMPORAR Y * IN OMMENTARY THE T WENTIES C “A vision of modern progress,” illustration in Popular Science Monthly, February 1928 (detail) — THE “MACHINE AGE” — Will MACHINES liberate man or enslave him? Will they deliver a bounteous future previously unimaginable, or a barren soulless prison of man’s making? Perennial questions. Here we examine how they were addressed in the 1920s through the writings of industrialists, engineers, economists, clergymen, novelists, a dramatist, a humorist, and other voices who cheered, mourned, or questioned the longterm consequences for man of his precocious offspring, the machine. People call this the mechanistic age, enlarge upon its many Edward S. Martin objectionable features and grumble about the acceleration of “Model T and the Millennium” life and all that. But what would they have? Is the mechanistic Harper’s, February 1928 age a good thing or a bad thing? Is the speeding up of life a basis for satisfaction or for regret? Twenty miles on the highway in old times used to be a pretty fair day’s work for a team. It took three or four hours to do it. When it was done the horses needed to rest and be fed. Now it is something to be done, where the roads are good, in half an hour or a little more by a creature that is not tired when it has done it. The speeding up of life is trying of course, but who can doubt that it is an immense achievement! Our great property in this life is time, and when we get about more quickly we save it.

Along the drive, Young recounted insightful and introspective stories from his youth to filmmaker Jonathan Demme. Demme, a long-time fan and collaborator, captured these tales of Young’s childhood and masterfully weaved them together with his mesmerizing music including songs from the 2010 album Le Noise and powerful renditions of classics including “Ohio”, Hey Hey, My My”, “I Believe in You” and previously unreleased songs “Leia” and “You Never Call.” Through the tunes and the tales, Demme portrays a personal, retrospective look into the heart and soul of the artist. In NEIL YOUNG JOURNEYS, Young’s intense performances are presented in full, along with passages from the funny and sometimes wistful ride into town. Demme and Young previously collaborated on two other documentaries, Neil Young: Heart of Gold, which chronicled Young performing in Nashville, the year after he survived a brain aneurysm and Neil Young Trunk Show, which memorialized a Pennsylvania concert during Young’s “Chrome Dreams II” tour.

  • Chicago Tribune Political Cartoons, 1918-1929
    BECOMING MODERN: AMERICA IN THE 1920S PRIMARY SOURCE COLLECTION * Chicago Daily Tribune IN POLITICAL CARTOONS HE WENTIES T T Founded in 1847, the Chicago Tribune is one of the oldest American newspapers in circulation. In the 1920s its Republican editorial stand mirrored main- stream American political opinion. Twenty-four political cartoons from the Tribune are presented here—two per year from 1918 to 1929 — created by the longtime Tribune cartoonists John McCutcheon and Carey Orr, whose instantly recognizable work was widely reprinted through- out the country. To analyze a political cartoon, consider its: CONTENT. First, basically describe what is drawn in the cartoon (without referring to the labels). What is depicted? What is happening? CONTEXT. Consider the timing. What is happening in national events at the time of the cartoon? Check the date: what occurred in the days and weeks before the cartoon appeared? “A Little Premature, But—They’re Just Tuning Up” LABELS. Read each label; look for labels that are Chicago Daily Tribune, November 8, 1918 not apparent at first, and for other written content in the cartoon. SYMBOLS. Name the symbols in the cartoons. What do they mean? How do they convey the cartoon’s meaning? TITLE. Study the title. Is it a statement, question, exclamation? Does it employ a well-known phrase, e.g., slang, song lyric, movie title, radio show, political or product slogan? How does it encapsulate and enhance the cartoonist’s point? TONE. Identify the tone of the cartoon. Is it satirical, comic, tragic, ironic, condemning, quizzical, imploring? What adjective describes the feeling of the cartoon? How do the visual elements in the drawing align with its tone? POINT.
