    Quote Analisys: Reading from “Spam Leaves an Aftertaste”

    Bob Hicok’s poem “Spam leaves an aftertaste” focuses on a series of analitical thoughts and questions triggered in result to a received email spam. The narrator speaks against the digital age, feeling as though the Internet takes the personal aspect out of things. The email spam advertising “a larger penis” symbolizes the commercialization-based society we live in and the internet serves as a mass consumer-reaching tool. One can sense the narrator’s frustration with the strong emphasis companies put on the consumption of their products by promoting the person that one can become. The author’s word choice is very selective when referring to the internet as “digital ether.” Knowing that Ethers are common organic compounds and pervasive in biochemistry it can be understood the narrator perceives technology to be invasive and prevalent. The poem juxtaposes elements of primitive times with those of the modern age, begging a satirical question, have we really gotten better? Perhaps we knew ourselves better in the past. The serious theme is that spam emails are very annoying and most of the time useless. This complicates the poem's tone because it switches from annoyed to humorous by making fun of the random advertisements but also making it evident that no one likes to get them. The narrator presents a disconsolate closing to his poem using a hyperbolic statement “mouths making sounds once known as conversations,” creating a sense of desperation for a person who shares the same beliefs as him.…

    9 11

    On September 11, 2001 America woke up expecting a normal day. What America did not expect was that this day was going to change history forever. On that day Islamic extremist high-jacked four U.S. airplanes with the intent of crashing them into the twin towers, the Pentagon and the White House. Two of the planes did indeed crash into the twin towers in New York City and another was used to hit the pentagon. The passengers on the last plane however, fought back, and it was landed before it could be used to hit the white house. “A decade later, what happened on Sept. 11 still resonates for much of the country. Even more Americans now say the horror of that day changed their lives.”1 These were the first attacks ever directed toward U.S. civilian population. These organized attacks lead to the need for an immediate change in the way the United States approached defending itself.…

    Conspiracy Theories of 9/11 Attack

    September 11, 2001 holds a special place in almost every American’s heart, as well as those of families in other countries who lost a loved one that day. Not only is Sept. 11th the bloodiest terrorist attack in the history of the nation, several groups of people within our own country and abroad believe that knowledge of this attack was held prior to the actual event. What has been reported and believed was that two airplanes crashed into the Twin Towers in New York City, and one airplane into the Pentagon. Different conspiracy theories have developed on the internet, and several websites claim to have legitimate cases regarding the validity of the “true” story. These claims are nothing less than a slap in the face of some thousands of Americans who risked their lives to remove others from harms way. The true story, however, is one of pain and suffering that my fellow citizens and I share.…

    Online Security

    By Kristin Judge Guest Writer Kristin.judge@msisac.org Chances are you are not a cyber security expert. Well, neither am I. The last computer class I took was DOS programming in 1987. But my family and I do spend much of our time online, as I'm sure many of you do, and I now work for a computer security organization - the national not-for-profit Center for Internet Security. I spend my days spreading the message about staying safe online, and I'm thrilled to be writing this new column so I can share easy, "non-techy" tips about how to keep you and your family protected. The Internet has changed the way we live possibly more than any other single invention since electricity. Have you ever thought about the degree of change we are facing in our culture right now? This is bigger than the Industrial Revolution or other cultural shifts you used to read about in the World Book Encyclopedia. Remember encyclopedias? Your kids won't. From parenting and relationships to the way we work and how we get our information has changed. Our fundamental way of living has forever been altered. Recently, I saw a 2-year-old press the pictures in a magazine expecting them to move like her iPad. Parents are using smartphones and tablets to keep kids entertained in restaurants, the barber chair and the doctor's office waiting room. Travel has forever changed. When was the last time you booked a vacation on the phone or through an agent without first looking at the hotel and flights online? We communicate with strangers regularly, sharing pictures and opinions on hotel and restaurant choices. Have you used a paper map recently? Familiar gadgets have been replaced. Do you still use a clock radio, watch or flashlight, or has your phone taken over those responsibilities? I'm the first to admit that I have used my phone to light up the closet or the way to the bathroom while my husband was sleeping. The Internet has allowed us to become better…
