These many-talented jewels of original ideas include: Rick Beckrich, whose talent with the artist's brush kept us all in stitches; Dyke Egnatz, whose explosive ideas and stories made the long nights shorter; John Bowers, whose excellent photography and photo layout put a little spice into the stew; Bosco Wrathen, our rolly polly photog with an eagle eye for sharp pics; Natalie Haddan, alias Niki, whose ex- cellent cartoons and illustrations (and talented hand at housekeeping), kept our heads above the steadily rising heap of torn up copy sheets; Gil Kett and Dick Knarr, whose unusual ability of both writing and cartooning is better than a double-decked Nash; Bob Conklin, our ace flatfoot of the advertising game; John Foster, our production manager, who covers so many miles each week he thinks that he'll try out for the 500 classic; Marti Smar, whose unique rhym- ability and constant good humor helped to ease the load; Bob Lewis and Emma Livingstone, whose technical aid kept us from enrolling in Logansport.

  • The Blame Game
    The Blame Game Rabbi Stuart Weinblatt Yom Kippur 2005 If Jeffrey Zaslow, a columnist for the Wall Street Journal is not a rabbi, he should be. He recently wrote a column entitled, “It’s All Your Fault: Why Americans can’t stop playing the Blame Game” which reads like a High Holiday Yom Kippur sermon. He wrote insightfully about the finger pointing currently taking place among federal and local officials over the multiple failures and breakdowns associated with Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath. Eric Dezenhall, a crisis-management consultant in Washington, D.C. explained, "Every event must have a villain, a victim and a vindicator in order for our culture to understand it. History is calamity-driven, but Americans feel these things shouldn't happen here, and someone must be at fault." There are people who actually study the biology and psychology of blame. Ohio University psychology professor Mark Alicke is one of them. He explains, "The human impulse to blame grows out of the evolutionary need to avert harm. If a group of early humans thought their survival was threatened because a member wasn't carrying his load -- hunting, gathering, whatever -- they'd point fingers, throw rocks, even commit murder. Nowadays things are a bit more sophisticated. You can go on the internet to buy a "calibrated blame-shifting device" for $4.95 from a clever ad agency. It is actually a giant foam hand with the words "It's your fault!" printed on the pointing finger. “Our blame culture is rooted in both nature and nurture. We still succumb to primitive impulses: If we stub a toe on a chair, we'll kick it and curse at it, even though we know it's irrational to blame inanimate objects.

  • Artist: Period/Style: Patron: Material/Technique: Form
    TITLE:Vietnam Veterans Memorial LOCATION: Washington, D.C., U.S. DATE: . 1982 C.E. ARTIST: Maya Lin PERIOD/STYLE: Minimalism PATRON: The Commision of Fine Arts MATERIAL/TECHNIQUE: Granite FORM: Highly reflective black granite with incised names of 58,000 names ofVietnam Veterans who sacrificed their lives during the conflict. The name is an abstraction that means more to the family and friends than a pictorial representation. The two walls start very short and get progressively taller until they meet at an oblique angle at the monument’s center. One wall points towards the Washington Monument; the other points to the Lincoln Memorial. FUNCTION: It functions as a memorial to the soldiers that died during the Vietnam War. It is an ideal place for people to come and spend quiet time reflecting on the names and perhaps leaving mementos to the deceased. CONTENT: The walls are made of a dark igneous rock called gabbro, a type of granite, which is highly reflective when polished.The surface of the monument is etched with the 58,195 names of the Americans who died or remained missing in action in the Vietnam War. The names are listed in the order in which they were reported killed or missing in action. This makes the names harder to find, and re- quires a listing and numeric system of organization for visitors. CONTEXT: There were 1400 anonymous entries for this commission. There was a real backlash once her identity was known because of latent racism in the post Vietnam era. She defended her design in front of the United States Congress, who eventually reached a compro- mise: A group of more “traditional” sculptures, called “The Three Soldiers,” was erected near the monument.
