Notre Dame NEW YORK ON THEIR MINDS plans benefit basketball game

Special to The Observer

University officials have announced that at the Nov. 28 Notre Dame-Army men's basketball game, a prostate cancer awarness group will use the event to bring attention to the disease. At 7:30 p.m. at the game in the Joyce Center, representatives of the Prostate Awareness and Cancer Education Program will teach more about this type of cancer. The event is organized by men's basketball team and coaches and the Management 231 class in the Mendoza College of Business. The class, a service learning course, is taught by faculty member Chuck Lennon. At the event, representatives of Irishhealth, St. Joseph Regional Medical Center, Memorial Hospital, the Northern Indiana Cancer Research Consortium and local physicians will be available on the Joyce Center concourse before the game to answer questions and distribute information. Men more than 50 years old may qualify for a free clinical trial program, Project Select, being conducted nationally. The project is sponsored by the United States Cancer Institute. According to organizers the event has two key goals: + to encourage men over 50 to have a regular prostate specific antigen test at their annual physi­ cal exam + to promote awareness of prostate cancer and to encourage more open discussion of the disease. The man_agement class will wear special shirts to promote the event on the Monday and Wednesday prior to the game. The Notre Dame and Army bas­ ketball teams will wear special shirts during pre­ game activities. On Oct. 19, sports analyst Dick Vitale appeared in the management class to shoot a prostate aware­ AMANDA HUGHES/The Observer ness commercial.

Does God Check Email? • by Frank Santoni, Assistant Director, Special Projects

All Saints I have a confession to make: I shirk time at work by writing personal notes to friends and family every Vigil Mass 5:15pm morning before I do any of work-related activity. It's true; I can't deny it. Each day, when I get to work at All Saints Oay Mass 11 :30 am the Coleman-Morse Center, the first thing I do is check my email. I watch impatiently while the blue Solemn Mass 5:15 pm status bar pushes its way across the screeen as it finds each new email message that awaits me. I fidget, Basilica of the Sacred Heart listening for the loud beep to signal "You have new mail" as dozens of new missives fill up my In-Box. I scan the list for familiar senders' names and dick eagerly on each discovery. For the next half hour or so, I systematically reply to each personal message, one by one. There you have it. It's off my chest and with the number of priests around campus I hope I might have a good chance at absolution before the end of this column. 807 Mass It's old news that email has changed the way we communicate, the way we work, even the way we live. 8:00p.m. When would I have ever, before the advent of this instant form of communication, arrived at work, or lounge, Coleman-Morse Center before going to sleep at night, pulled out some loose leaf stationery and written a letter the old fashioned Danielle Rose in Concert way to several of my friends at a time every single day? That just didn't happen. Email has made it easy to 9:30p.m. keep it in touch with loved ones. lounge, Coleman-Morse Center A quick survey of my In-Box proves that even my faith life has been altered. Regularly, during my on­ the-clock email checks, I skip over forwarded andre-forwarded prayers and inspirational tales of the chicken soup variety sent by family and friends. My attachments folder bulges with powerpoint presenta­ tions of interviews with God and religious digital pictures. All this email talk got me wondering. If email is so convenient and so pervasive, and if it's already Folk Choir Concert improved the way I stay connected with the people I love, then wouldn't it stand to reason that I should get for Missions God into my address book? I mean, God must have an email account right? And if he does, how often 8:00p.m. does he reply to his messages? Knowing that kind of info would come in very handy since I have a lot of Basilica of the Sacred Heart questions and several requests. Just think of the possibilities. Daily emails would surely speed up the process of getting answers from the Almighty. Ifi had a problem. in the morning I could shoot off an -~ urgent email to God and get an answer by lunch. First, I had to find God's email address. I knew from previous experience that God does not have a website. A search at yahoo. com generated 200 responses, none of them too promising unless I wanted to email The Evil Chicken God ofThe Underworld or Fred God from West Islip, New York. I did send a RCIA Inquiry Session message to [email protected], but I'm not holding my breath. 10:00 a.m. I had to resort to a little experiment. So, I typed up a message, quick and to the point. 330 Coleman-Morse Center God, Dia de los Muertos Closing Event Hi. Just a quick question or two: How often do you check your email? And with what frequency 1:00 p.m.· Meet at Lafortune . do you reply? I'm just looking for a ballpark guesstimate here. I know how busy you must be. Spanish Mass at Zahm Hall Chapel Peace, Frank Reception to follow I fired it off to [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], and for good measure, [email protected]. I got Law School Mass immediate replies from earthlink and aol, explaining in tech jargon that God did not have an account with either of the 5:00 p.. m. giant email providers. I can also report, with some fear that I may shatter a few long-held ideas, that God does not rely law School ChapeL on Notre Dame - at least not for an internet connection, that is. So far, nothing from hotmail. MBA Mass Trying to reach God via email proved to be a frustrating endeavor. I was met with no answers and only more 7:00 p•. m. questions. I imagined an efficient back and forth between me and God. Come to think of it, that could easily describe Mendoza College of Business Chapel all the other methods I use to try to reach God, too. My litany of questions and requests is often lengthy, but the time I give God to reply is always short. I list all the important people in my life, throw in any major life issues and conclude Rejoice! African American with a general request for abundant blessings. Catholic Mass I am impatient and email has only reinforced my expectation for immediate answers and easy communications. 10:00 p.m. After all, if I email a friend I can usually expect to hear back within 24 hours. And if I don't, I get upset. Shouldn't I be Notre Dame Our Mother Chapel Coleman-Morse Center able to count on the same from God? In the end, my typical prayers filled with needs and wants, like short emails Celebrant: Rev. J. Steele, esc between friends, are fine to keep "in touch" with God, but deepening a relationship requires setting aside quality time away from· the busyness oflife. I have found that reaching God and, especially, hearing back, demands of me a deeper kind of commitment, one that is far more deliberate and patient. Maybe, if God doesn't do email, I can find some others who do. Dori't Mary and the saints have a direct line? I'll L have to check when I get to work tomorrow.

Associated Press

NEW YORK Tino Martinez made his !irst hit of this World Series count. With New York down to its final out in Game 4, Martinez connected for a game-tying, two-run homer in the ninth inning off Arizona closer Byung-Hyun Kim to help the Yankees beat the Diamondbacks 4-3 in 10 innings Wednesday night. Martinez had been hitless in nine at-bats in the .Series against Arizona's tough pitch­ ing and the Yankees had scored only four runs before his big shot helped turned the momentum and tied the Series at two games apiece. New York didn't win it until Derek Jeter's solo shot in the 11th. Martinez was one of the first Yankees to pour out of the dugout to mob Jeter at home plate. But the celebration wouldn't have been possible without Martinez, who made sure his career in with the Yankees will last at least until a Game 6 in Arizona. Martinez is in the 11nal year of his contract and his future in New York is in doubt. The Yankees have been grooming top prospect Nick Johnson to take over at first base and also might be interested in signing reigning AL MVP Jason Photo courtesy of Pressl1nk Giambi.
