Hammer How to Reflash Apex and kernel
These instructions assume that APEX has been configured for a 1024k kernel region
Flashing a new kernel (zImage)
You'll find the zImage file in the linux-2.6.22/arch/arm/boot directory.
apex> xr 0x30008000 <=== This is the address that the flash base kernel is copied to by apex on powerup> < send zImage via xmodem> apex> erase nor:256k+1024k apex> copy 0x30008000+1024k nor:256k 1048576 bytes transferred apex> boot <this will boot the newly flashed kernel with the existing rootfs>
Flashing a new rootfs
You'll find the rootfs.arm.ext2.gz file in the buildroot/binaries/Hammer directory.
apex> xr 0x30800000 <=== This is the address that the flash base rootfs is copied to by apex on powerup> <send rootfs.arm.ext2.gz via xmodem> apex> erase nor:1280k+1024k apex> copy 0x30800000+1024k nor:1280k 1048576 bytes transferred apex> boot <this will boot the existing kernel with the newly flashed rootfs>
Flashing a new bootloader (APEX)
apex> xr 0x30008000 < send apex.bin via xmodem> apex> erase nor:0x00+256k <<<yes this is correct, the 256k is intended to erase the entire block! apex> copy 0x30008000+128k nor:0x00 131072 bytes transferred
then press reset to run the newly flashed apex, do not type boot
Notes on Using Minicom XMODEM
After typing the rx 0x30008000 command in the apex shell running Ctrl+A , S and using xmodem on minicom had to be done quickly. Best bet is to copy the path of the file into a clipboard and paste it. Otherwise type your path as fast as you can. I am not sure why it has this issue, may be an apex timeout on its rx command. Not Sure. But if you encounter that error just retry.

UK halts export of Jane Austen ring purchased by Kelly Clarkson
LONDON (AP) — The British government has stepped in to stop singer Kelly Clarkson from taking a ring once owned by author Jane Austen out of the country.
The "American Idol" winner bought the gold and turquoise ring at auction last year for just over 150,000 pounds ($228,000). But on Thursday, Culture Minister Ed Vaizey put an export bar on the item until Sept. 30 in the hope that a British buyer will come forward.
Vaizey said Austen's modest lifestyle and early death aged 41 "mean that objects associated with her of any kind are extremely rare, so I hope that a U.K. buyer comes forward so this simple but elegant ring can be saved for the nation."
The government has the power to temporarily halt the export of works judged to be national treasures.
The author of "Pride and Prejudice" left the ring to her sister Cassandra, and it remained in the family until it was sold last year.
The export ban can be extended until Dec. 30 if there is a British campaign to buy the ring at a recommended price of 152,450 pounds. Clarkson has agreed to sell the ring should a buyer come forward.
Clarkson has sold millions of records since winning the first series of TV talent show "American Idol" in 2002.
She told a British newspaper last year that as well as the ring she'd bought a first edition of Austen's novel "Persuasion" in the Sotheby's sale.

Andrew Dean Richardson
~ Oscar Wilde on Andrew Dean Richardson
Andrew Dean Richardson, born on the 14th January 1842, is a world renowned American/Canadian (we're not quite sure anymore) actor and a tragic sufferer of the rare disease Hairdiscolourationdisorderitis which causes his hair to change colour depending upon however he feels about a particular project. He is most famed for the role he played in
MacGyver Star Gate, when he was feeling particularly feisty, hence his hair at this time was blonde.
An Actors Life[edit | edit source]
Before playing the role of MacGyver, Richardson became famed for his vocal portrayal of the unnamed Inspector Gadget who was called "MacGyver" in his last episode, one obsessive fan was a television producer and although unable to keep the name "Inspector Gadget" got Richardson on board and called the show MacGyver, Richardson made the role of MacGyver his finest for 30 years between 1967 and 1997, going on numerous low-budget adventures showcasing his scientific and acting skill and prowess.
This would later come to a head with the new science show Star Gate (also known as a different name because of copyright problems) which premiered in 1997, "it's still MacGyver, just with a new setting, and I have a new name of course" he reportedly said. When told he would be on a high budget new MacGyver show Star Gate Andrew's hair became a distinct shade of brown, and later silver.
This role continued as Andrew simply couldn't drag himself away from the science-tastic universe Star Gate presented for him, but was forced to withdraw after 9 years as his hair was beginning to become a deep shade of purple, which the producers claimed "did not fit the mood of the show."
He has retired now to spend more time with his hair, commonly known as The Guyver.
It was finally confirmed on Sunday, 23rd of October 2005 that Andrew would re-emburse his role as MacGyver one last time in a film adaptation of The Da Vinci Code which would officially be known as MacGyver: The Quest for the Holy Grail. Richardson was said to be extememely enthusiastic about playing his favourite character once again, so much so that his hair went back to silver. The film however garnered almost none of the attention of the book, and its limited release in 12 theatres across the United States didn't exactly help.
An Actors Obsession[edit | edit source]
Andrew is renowned for his silence and numerous collection of Futurama DVDs which he bought under his alias Richard Dean Anderson (clever, huh?), he is said to watch obsessively, he most recently received an invitation to be in an episode of the new secret series of Futurama being recorded now, but we've been told not to tell anyone. Whoops.
Andrew has often been seen running about around sets of his television shows in large suits depicting characters from the show, including Wheldar the Automaton, who he has often quoted and ad libbed in his shows.
Though many fans and critics have suspected that instead of simply being a fan of this show, he is actually using it to cover whenever he has a bad hair day! One fan commented "It's totally not in character for Andrew to like Wheldar, he is totally the opposite character to Andrew, Andrew is lovely, I think it is for him to hide his horrible hair." Charming!
Andrew was said to be near suicidal when he heard Futurama had been cancelled, but was apparently convinced otherwise when Matt Groening paid the entire cast to spend 5 days with the grieving Andrew, this caused him to miss the making of 5 episodes of his belovid Star Gate, but Andrew said "it was well worth it to meet the guy who really is Wheldar, I wanted to keep him in my house forever!"
Richardson's Newfound Life[edit | edit source]
Although the MacGyver thing worked out rather well, Richardson has now found a new life in Stargate SG-1.(BTW Stargate Kicks ass but Atlantis is gay ,,!,,(-_-),,!,, ) After many years (10, but he only starred in eight) in the Stargate community he finally found out what this show really was; a massive dumpung ground for the old stars of the show. He was snooping around one day when he came across a broom cupboard that was labelled with a star. Seeing this and think of his 2 show fame spree he went in. The day they finished shooting the 200th episode and he has not been seen since. Whether he is still in that cupboard or just taking a vacaion with Ben Stiller is being discussed and debated by many celebrities, including Jennifer Lopez, Brittany Spears, and This Guy, the inventor of kitten huffing. don

At 8 pm, the Queen of the North departed Prince Rupert, British Columbia, near the southern tip of the Alaska Panhandle, on its regularly scheduled service to Port Hardy at the northern end of Vancouver Island. The route, which weaves past deep fjords and islands draped in rain forest, is popular with cruise ships plying the Inside Passage; in summer, the Queen typically made the 15-hour trip as a day liner fully booked with 700 passengers and crew, but in the off-season it sailed at night. On this rainy evening it carried 42 crew members and 59 passengers, mostly locals from isolated coastal communities. For them, the much-loved 37-year-old car and passenger ferry was a vital link to the outside world.
Just after midnight Leanne Duncan stepped out onto the starboard deck for a cigarette. She was heading home to her native village of Klemtu after a shopping trip in Prince Rupert with her teenage daughter, Sandra. A frequent Queen of the North traveler, Duncan knew the route well: At this point in the 280-mile trip, the ferry emerged from long, straight Grenville Channel and entered 3-mile-wide Wright Sound. The flashing beacon of Sainty Point Light, off the port bow, signaled the bridge crew--fourth officer Karl Lilgert and quartermaster Karen Bricker--to make a slight course correction to port to avoid Gil Island, which juts into the sound.
A few minutes later, however, Duncan was alarmed to see trees looming out of the darkness on the starboard side. She rushed inside to ask a purser if everything was all right. "Just fine," he assured her.
More From Popular Mechanics
At the same time, Graham Clarke was relaxing in his cabin on the boat deck. President of a marine ferries company, Clarke had toured the ship a few hours earlier and inspected its two MAN V16 diesel engines. With a length of 410 ft. and a gross tonnage of 8889, the Queen of the North was the fifth largest member of the BC Ferry Services' 36-vessel fleet and flagship of its remote northern routes. Clarke was onboard with an eye to purchasing the seagoing ship for conversion into a floating fishing camp.
With a loud crash, the Queen lurched violently. A suitcase flew off Clarke's workspace; the contents of his desk hit the deck. Screeching, the ferry ground to a halt. Then--silence.
After Duncan's exchange with the purser, she had started to head back outside. But now she raced to her cabin to find her daughter.
In the crew quarters below the car deck, water rushed in from two starboard gashes. Boulders flew into one cabin, shattering a bulkhead; the force of incoming water threw a seaman into the adjoining cabin. Elsewhere, terrified crew members were up to their waists in water in the time it took them to scramble from their bunks. One was trapped in her rapidly flooding room until she was able to shove aside a locker knocked over by the impact.
Five decks above, Clarke forced himself to stay calm as he put on shoes and a parka. He knew the crew would soon give the order to abandon ship. "The lights went out within moments," he says, "so I knew the engine room was flooding." Exiting his cabin, he moved along the companionways, banging on doors to wake up other passengers. Alarm bells sounded, and loudspeaker announcements directed the passengers to the lifeboats on deck seven.
Six miles to the northeast, in the aboriginal settlement of Hartley Bay, Bruce Reece was awakened by the ferry's Mayday, relayed by the Canadian Coast Guard station in Prince Rupert on the marine distress channel, which northern communities monitor around the clock. Within seconds, phones were ringing throughout the village of 200. Men ran to the dock for their trawlers and skiffs, while women began preparing food and hot drinks, collecting blankets and warm clothes and heading to the community center to await survivors.
Reece had just fired up his 21-ft. aluminum powerboat, Miss Ardell, and set off with seven other craft toward open water when he heard his mother's voice on the marine radio. "Leanne and Sandra are on the ship," she told him. He had forgotten that his niece and her daughter were traveling on the Queen. He revved his 250-hp engine and sped into the darkness.
In Victoria, the province's capital, at the southern tip of Vancouver Island, the Rescue Coordination Centre scanned for ships in the vicinity of the Queen. They were lucky. The Canadian Coast Guard's light icebreaker Sir Wilfrid Laurier was just 18 miles--or 90 minutes--to the north, at Barnard Harbour. While pulling up anchor, the icebreaker dispatched the Laurier 1, a rigid-hull inflatable boat. Its twin 150-hp outboard engines can generate a top speed of 45 knots, which meant the rescue craft could reach the scene in 45 minutes.

With the ship listing heavily to starboard, the crew directed confused passengers, some in pajamas, to the lifeboats. One woman, unaware of the collision, complained, "What a silly time to hold a fire drill!" Clarke recalls: "It was surreal, with the stark emergency lighting and the passengers in stunned silence, walking around barefoot in the rain."
In orderly fashion, the passengers descended Jacob's ladders into two wooden lifeboats and three inflatable rafts. Clarke boarded the last raft. Ten feet down, it stopped with a jerk. Fearful they would free-fall 55 ft. to the water below or smash against the hull, Clarke carefully moved to another seat to shift weight away from the vessel. A few seconds later, the lines began spooling through the pulleys, and the raft continued its descent.
Once the lifeboats were in the water, the captain ordered a crew member in each to do a head count. After several recounts, the totals were inconsistent. Nevertheless, the lifeboats motored to stand off 500 ft. from the Queen. Rain soaked the shivering crew and passengers, who huddled together as they bobbed in the dark in icy 3-ft. seas.
Seven minutes after leaving Hartley Bay, Reece saw a foggy, glowing light through the rain. "Even from that distance I could see the ferry was listing badly," he says. "It looked eerie. She was so familiar to us, and there she was--crippled on the rocks." Then he spotted the lifeboats rafted together, surrounded by ship debris. He approached slowly, shouting for his niece. At the third raft, she returned his call. Crowding Duncan, her daughter and six other people onto his boat, Reece roared back to Hartley Bay. The community's fire chief, Edward Robinson, circled the ferry with his speedboat, keeping 20 ft. away, shining his searchlight into the windows and across the deck as he looked for survivors. "Being so close to the ship was sad and scary at the same time," Robinson says. He saw no one.
The Laurier 1 arrived to assist the fishing boats shuttling passengers and crew to Hartley Bay. Shortly after, the Sir Wilfrid Laurier inched through oil-slicked waters littered with life jackets and debris. The crew on deck manned searchlights and launched flares throughout the night, but no bodies were found. After helping gather up the lifeboats, an exhausted Clarke boarded the icebreaker at 4 am.
Meanwhile, in Hartley Bay, villagers met rescued passengers and crew on the beach and escorted them to the nursing station and community hall, where they were served hot drinks and food. With relief, Reece's wife, Betsy, greeted Duncan and her daughter. After changing into warm clothes, they and a handful of others shuffled along the village boardwalks to the homes of friends and relatives.
Shortly before dawn, when the Laurier arrived in Hartley Bay, Clarke helped the Coast Guard escort survivors onto the icebreaker and conduct repeated head counts. But there was confusion about the manifest: Catching a ferry is much like boarding a bus--not all travelers' names are recorded. That afternoon, BC Ferries announced that passengers Gerald Foisy and Shirley Rosette of 100 Mile House, British Columbia, were missing. As the Laurier sailed to Prince Rupert, a Department of National Defense fixed-wing Buffalo aircraft and two Cormorant helicopters scrambled from Vancouver Island's Canadian Forces Base Comox and searched for the couple throughout the day. By the time the Laurier docked in Prince Rupert at 4:15 pm, they were presumed dead.

The Queen sits at a depth of 1398 ft., upright and intact, on a sandy seabed. The Transportation Safety Board of Canada (TSB) conducted two unmanned dive operations to the wreck. The second, on June 15, 2006, lowered an ROV (remotely operated vehicle) outfitted with a $2 chipping hammer to smash the windshield on the bridge. "We didn't bother to take just the hard drive," says Ken Potter, manager of Head Office Marine Investigation Operations for the TSB. "We had the submersible pry the entire computer off the bulkhead and bring it to the surface." They recovered the electronic chart system, GPS and automated identification system. They also searched unsuccessfully for the ship's logbooks and examined the wreck for hull and structural damage.
Nearly two years later, the TSB released its Marine Investigation Report, which blamed the sinking on human error. The bridge crew "did not adhere to sound watch-keeping practices and failed to detect the vessel's improper course." Lilgert and Bricker had recently ended a romantic relationship, and this was their first night shift together since the split. During the 14 minutes the ship sailed off course and struck Gil Rock near Gil Island, the report said they were having a "personal conversation." (In March 2007, after BC Ferries investigators pinned the cause of the sinking on human error, both were fired.) On the day the TSB report was released, Lilgert issued his first statement since the accident: "I continue to grieve for the missing persons and would with all my heart exchange my life for theirs." Bricker has remained silent.
The TSB report also notes that "the navigation equipment was not set up to take full advantage of the available safety features." Crew had dimmed radar monitors to improve their night vision. An alarm system that warned if the ship was too close to shore was also switched off, which was routine on this route. (Otherwise, it would have sounded continuously through narrow Grenville Channel.)The TSB also found that some crew members had observed marijuana use by off-duty crew.
The report made few safety recommendations. In fact, BC Ferries believes that the report didn't go far enough in recommending mandatory drug and alcohol testing--standard procedure on comparable U.S. services, such as the Washington State Ferries. BC Ferries has independently instituted drug and alcohol testing after any incident.
The company is installing Rutter voyage data recorders in its entire fleet, the largest voluntary outfitting of VDRs to date. VDRs are similar to airline "black boxes"--pressure-resistant, watertight capsules that record trip data. BC Ferries has also updated the passenger reservation system for its northern fleet. All manifests on these routes must now include passenger names.
The Queen of the North was the first vessel in the fleet to sink since service began in 1960. "BC Ferries has an excellent safety record, running these routes largely without incident for decades," says Professor Warren Gill, a transportation expert at Vancouver's Simon Fraser University. "It's tragic, but sometimes accidents just happen."

Do I Need a Lawyer?
There is no requirement to use a lawyer to file for bankruptcy. However, some people decide to hire one to help them get through the process.
Whether you're a good candidate for doing it yourself, depends on the complexity of your financial situation, and your willingness to take the time to learn the rules of bankruptcy. (If you're not the type of person that is willing to follow instructions carefully, then self-help is probably not for you.)
Your Financial Situation
If your debts consist only of unsecured credit card debt, you may well be able to file for bankruptcy on your own.
However, other factors to consider are the amount and type of property you own. If you own your home, have substantial retirement savings, or other substantial assets you may want to consult with a lawyer to make sure your property is not at risk.
A good way to approach the decision of whether to hire a lawyer is to buy (and read) Nolo's book How to File for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy. It will give you a good idea of what issues may arise when you file, and flags specific situations when a lawyer's help is called for. It will also give you a good idea of whether the filing process seems to complicated for you.
If your financial situation is simple, but you just don't want to deal with the forms, you might consider a using a Bankruptcy Petition Preparer to handle the form preparation.
Some lawyers may be willing to review your situation without taking on your entire case. If they see that your situation is very simple, some lawyers might even tell you that you can do it yourself.
Other Resources, Other Opinions
Lots of people have opinions on the topic of whether you should get a lawyer. Most lawyers... guess what... think you should always have a lawyer. But, seriously, they make some worthwhile points that are worth reading as you decide what to do.
The National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys (NACBA) makes the case of why you should use an attorney and offers tips for those who cannot afford one.
The law firm of Moran Law Group, in addition to providing loads of useful free information about bankruptcy, also makes the case why you should get a lawyer and the US Courts site has this advice about filing without an attorney.
And Nolo has an article on Filing for Bankruptcy Without an Attorney
These are all worth reading.

Day 1 • Day 2 • Day 3 • Day 4 • Day 5 • Day 6 • Day 7 • Day 8 • Day 9 • Day 10 • Day 11 • Day 12
David Cassidy is dead.
Denise and I were setting up the above-ground, heated swimming pool for my seven new pet swans1 when we saw Cassidy clutch at the pear tree to keep from falling. We helped him to the ground, and though he was struggling to breathe, he managed to utter two words before his heart gave out: "swan allergy." I have no idea what he meant, but I figure it's probably the name of his sled.
Frankly, I'm surprised he lasted the week, sitting in freezing temperatures without food or water. But he clearly knew death was a possibility when he accepted the gig, since when I rifled through his pockets2 the only thing I found was the phone number for a local Undertaker. Two hours later, a hearse sporting the WWE logo pulled up in front, and — after some pyrotechnics and a bunch of unnecessary posturing — we bade a final farewell to David Cassidy.
It took us a few hours to get the heated pool up and running, and I'm not looking forward to our next electric bill, but I have to say the swans are quite impressive. Backstroke, breast stroke, butterfly, they can do it all.3 I don't know if there's a market for this sort of thing, but I bet people would pay to see Michael Phelps race a relay team of swans.4
Oh, and last night, a couple policemen stopped by and told me the parrots couldn't stay on the porch, something about county noise ordinances. They were going to let me off with a warning, but overheard the parrot mafia don say some rather unkind things about cops, so now I'm out another $500. I made sure to rattle some cages when I pulled the parrots from their perch on the porch and banished them to the the garage. The parrot don said I'd pay for such an injustice, but he's too late. I've already maxed out both my credit cards to pay for bird food and stinky French cheeses.
Anyway, to make room for the pool, we moved the bricklaying geese to the basement, which is just as well since they were doing a piss-poor job on the patio. They're now building us some (rather shaky) new stairs for the basement hatch. Two other geese are messing with the plumbing, and I threw the last one down there as well after it had cornered Marcelle in the tub for a couple hours. It'll probably start on an uneven tile floor with too much grout, just like it was doing in the upstairs bathroom.
I don't have high hopes for any of the geese's projects. I'll probably have to rip out all their work and start fresh once Christmas is over and everybody leaves. Wait, they are going to leave after the last day of Christmas, right?
1 Yay! More birds! Just what I needed. (For reference, here's the current household tally: 2 people, 1 dog, 1 cat, 21 birds. Surprisingly, Hitchcock has yet to make a cameo.)
2 As is the custom with any dead celebrity.
3 And the black one's pretty good at water ballet.
4 Or, failing that, smoke up with a relay team of swans.

Pierre-Simon Laplace's father, Pierre Laplace, was comfortably well off in the cider trade. Laplace's mother, Marie-Anne Sochon, came from a fairly prosperous farming family who owned land at Tourgéville. Many accounts of Laplace say his family were 'poor farming people' or 'peasant farmers' but these seem to be rather inaccurate although there is little evidence of academic achievement except for an uncle who is thought to have been a secondary school teacher of mathematics. This is stated in [1] in these terms:-
There is little record of intellectual distinction in the family beyond what was to be expected of the cultivated provincial bourgeoisie and the minor gentry.
Laplace attended a Benedictine priory school in Beaumont-en-Auge,
as a day pupil, between the ages of 7 and 16. His father expected
him to make a career in the Church and indeed either the Church
or the army were the usual destinations of pupils at the priory
school. At the age of 16 Laplace entered Caen University. As he
was still intending to enter the Church, he enrolled to study theology.
However, during his two years at the University of Caen, Laplace
discovered his mathematical talents and his love of the subject.
Credit for this must go largely to two teachers of mathematics at
Caen, C Gadbled and P Le Canu of whom little is known except that
they realised Laplace's great mathematical potential.
Once he knew that mathematics was to be his subject, Laplace left Caen without taking his degree, and went to Paris. He took with him a letter of introduction to d'Alembert from Le Canu, his teacher at Caen. Although Laplace was only 19 years old when he arrived in Paris he quickly impressed d'Alembert. Not only did d'Alembert begin to direct Laplace's mathematical studies, he also tried to find him a position to earn enough money to support himself in Paris. Finding a position for such a talented young man did not prove hard, and Laplace was soon appointed as professor of mathematics at the Ecole Militaire. Gillespie writes in [1]:-
Imparting geometry, trigonometry, elementary analysis, and statics to adolescent cadets of good family, average attainment, and no commitment to the subjects afforded little stimulus, but the post did permit Laplace to stay in Paris.
He began producing a steady stream of remarkable mathematical papers,
the first presented to the Académie des Sciences in Paris
on 28 March 1770. This first paper, read to the Society but not
published, was on maxima and minima of curves where he improved
on methods given by Lagrange. His next paper for the Academy followed
soon afterwards, and on 18 July 1770 he read a paper on difference
Laplace's first paper which was to appear in print was one on the integral calculus which he translated into Latin and published at Leipzig in the Nova acta eruditorum in 1771. Six years later Laplace republished an improved version, apologising for the 1771 paper and blaming errors contained in it on the printer. Laplace also translated the paper on maxima and minima into Latin and published it in the Nova acta eruditorum in 1774. Also in 1771 Laplace sent another paper Recherches sur le calcul intégral aux différences infiniment petites, et aux différences finies to the Mélanges de Turin. This paper contained equations which Laplace stated were important in mechanics and physical astronomy.
The year 1771 marks Laplace's first attempt to gain election to the Académie des Sciences but Vandermonde was preferred. Laplace tried to gain admission again in 1772 but this time Cousin was elected. Despite being only 23 (and Cousin 33) Laplace felt very angry at being passed over in favour of a mathematician who was so clearly markedly inferior to him. D'Alembert also must have been disappointed for, on 1 January 1773, he wrote to Lagrange, the Director of Mathematics at the Berlin Academy of Science, asking him whether it might be possible to have Laplace elected to the Berlin Academy and for a position to be found for Laplace in Berlin.
Before Lagrange could act on d'Alembert's request, another chance for Laplace to gain admission to the Paris Academy arose. On 31 March 1773 he was elected an adjoint in the Académie des Sciences. By the time of his election he had read 13 papers to the Academy in less than three years. Condorcet, who was permanent secretary to the Academy, remarked on this great number of quality papers on a wide range of topics.
We have already mentioned some of Laplace's early work. Not only had he made major contributions to difference equations and differential equations but he had examined applications to mathematical astronomy and to the theory of probability, two major topics which he would work on throughout his life. His work on mathematical astronomy before his election to the Academy included work on the inclination of planetary orbits, a study of how planets were perturbed by their moons, and in a paper read to the Academy on 27 November 1771 he made a study of the motions of the planets which would be the first step towards his later masterpiece on the stability of the solar system.
Laplace's reputation steadily increased during the 1770s. It was the period in which he [1]:-
... established his style, reputation, philosophical position, certain mathematical techniques, and a programme of research in two areas, probability and celestial mechanics, in which he worked mathematically for the rest of his life.
The 1780s were the period in which Laplace produced the depth of
results which have made him one of the most important and influential
scientists that the world has seen. It was not achieved, however,
with good relationships with his colleagues. Although d'Alembert
had been proud to have considered Laplace as his protégé,
he certainly began to feel that Laplace was rapidly making much
of his own life's work obsolete and this did nothing to improve
relations. Laplace tried to ease the pain for d'Alembert by stressing
the importance of d'Alembert's work since he undoubtedly felt well
disposed towards d'Alembert for the help and support he had given.
It does appear that Laplace was not modest about his abilities and achievements, and he probably failed to recognise the effect of his attitude on his colleagues. Lexell visited the Académie des Sciences in Paris in 1780-81 and reported that Laplace let it be known widely that he considered himself the best mathematician in France. The effect on his colleagues would have been only mildly eased by the fact that Laplace was right! Laplace had a wide knowledge of all sciences and dominated all discussions in the Academy. As Lexell wrote:-
... in the Academy he wanted to pronounce on everything.
It was while Lexell was in Paris that Laplace made an excursion into a new area of science [2]:-
Applying quantitative methods to a comparison of living and nonliving systems, Laplace and the chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1780, with the aid of an ice calorimeter that they had invented, showed respiration to be a form of combustion.
Although Laplace soon returned to his study of mathematical astronomy,
this work with Lavoisier marked the beginning of a third important
area of research for Laplace, namely his work in physics particularly
on the theory of heat which he worked on towards the end of his
In 1784 Laplace was appointed as examiner at the Royal Artillery Corps, and in this role in 1785, he examined and passed the 16 year old Napoleon Bonaparte. In fact this position gave Laplace much work in writing reports on the cadets that he examined but the rewards were that he became well known to the ministers of the government and others in positions of power in France.
Laplace served on many of the committees of the Académie des Sciences, for example Lagrange wrote to him in 1782 saying that work on his Traité de mécanique analytique was almost complete and a committee of the Académie des Sciences comprising of Laplace, Cousin, Legendre and Condorcet was set up to decide on publication. Laplace served on a committee set up to investigate the largest hospital in Paris and he used his expertise in probability to compare mortality rates at the hospital with those of other hospitals in France and elsewhere.
Laplace was promoted to a senior position in the Académie des Sciences in 1785. Two years later Lagrange left Berlin to join Laplace as a member of the Académie des Sciences in Paris. Thus the two great mathematical geniuses came together in Paris and, despite a rivalry between them, each was to benefit greatly from the ideas flowing from the other. Laplace married on 15 May 1788. His wife, Marie-Charlotte de Courty de Romanges, was 20 years younger than the 39 year old Laplace. They had two children, their son Charles-Emile who was born in 1789 went on to a military career.
Laplace was made a member of the committee of the Académie des Sciences to standardise weights and measures in May 1790. This committee worked on the metric system and advocated a decimal base. In 1793 the Reign of Terror commenced and the Académie des Sciences, along with the other learned societies, was suppressed on 8 August. The weights and measures commission was the only one allowed to continue but soon Laplace, together with Lavoisier, Borda, Coulomb, Brisson and Delambre were thrown off the commission since all those on the committee had to be worthy:-
... by their Republican virtues and hatred of kings.
Before the 1793 Reign of Terror Laplace together with his wife
and two children left Paris and lived 50 km southeast of Paris.
He did not return to Paris until after July 1794. Although Laplace
managed to avoid the fate of some of his colleagues during the Revolution,
such as Lavoisier who was guillotined in May 1794 while Laplace
was out of Paris, he did have some difficult times. He was consulted,
together with Lagrange and Laland, over the new calendar for the
Revolution. Laplace knew well that the proposed scheme did not really
work because the length of the proposed year did not fit with the
astronomical data. However he was wise enough not to try to overrule
political dogma with scientific facts. He also conformed, perhaps
more happily, to the decisions regarding the metric division of
angles into 100 subdivisions.
In 1795 the Ecole Normale was founded with the aim of training school teachers and Laplace taught courses there including one on probability which he gave in 1795. The Ecole Normale survived for only four months for the 1200 pupils, who were training to become school teachers, found the level of teaching well beyond them. This is entirely understandable. Later Laplace wrote up the lectures of his course at the Ecole Normale as Essai philosophique sur les probabilités published in 1814. A review of the Essai states:-
... after a general introduction concerning the principles of probability theory, one finds a discussion of a host of applications, including those to games of chance, natural philosophy, the moral sciences, testimony, judicial decisions and mortality.
In 1795 the Académie des Sciences was reopened as the Institut National des Sciences et des Arts. Also in 1795 the Bureau des Longitudes was founded with Lagrange and Laplace as the mathematicians among its founding members and Laplace went on to lead the Bureau and the Paris Observatory. However although some considered he did a fine job in these posts others criticised him for being too theoretical. Delambre wrote some years later:-
... never should one put a geometer at the head of an observatory; he will neglect all the observations except those needed for his formulas.
Delambre also wrote concerning Laplace's leadership of the Bureau des Longitudes:-
One can reproach [Laplace] with the fact that in more than 20 years of existence the Bureau des Longitudes has not determined the position of a single star, or undertaken the preparation of the smallest catalogue.
Laplace presented his famous nebular hypothesis in 1796 in Exposition du systeme du monde, which viewed the solar system as originating from the contracting and cooling of a large, flattened, and slowly rotating cloud of incandescent gas. The Exposition consisted of five books: the first was on the apparent motions of the celestial bodies, the motion of the sea, and also atmospheric refraction; the second was on the actual motion of the celestial bodies; the third was on force and momentum; the fourth was on the theory of universal gravitation and included an account of the motion of the sea and the shape of the Earth; the final book gave an historical account of astronomy and included his famous nebular hypothesis. Laplace states his philosophy of science in the Exposition as follows:-
If man were restricted to collecting facts the sciences were only a sterile nomenclature and he would never have known the great laws of nature. It is in comparing the phenomena with each other, in seeking to grasp their relationships, that he is led to discover these laws...
In view of modern theories of impacts of comets on the Earth it is particularly interesting to see Laplace's remarkably modern view of this:-
... the small probability of collision of the Earth and a comet can become very great in adding over a long sequence of centuries. It is easy to picture the effects of this impact on the Earth. The axis and the motion of rotation have changed, the seas abandoning their old position..., a large part of men and animals drowned in this universal deluge, or destroyed by the violent tremor imparted to the terrestrial globe.
Exposition du systeme du monde was written as a non-mathematical
introduction to Laplace's most important work Traité du Mécanique
Céleste whose first volume appeared three years later. Laplace
had already discovered the invariability of planetary mean motions.
In 1786 he had proved that the eccentricities and inclinations of
planetary orbits to each other always remain small, constant, and
self-correcting. These and many other of his earlier results formed
the basis for his great work the Traité du Mécanique
Céleste published in 5 volumes, the first two in 1799.
The first volume of the Mécanique Céleste is divided into two books, the first on general laws of equilibrium and motion of solids and also fluids, while the second book is on the law of universal gravitation and the motions of the centres of gravity of the bodies in the solar system. The main mathematical approach here is the setting up of differential equations and solving them to describe the resulting motions. The second volume deals with mechanics applied to a study of the planets. In it Laplace included a study of the shape of the Earth which included a discussion of data obtained from several different expeditions, and Laplace applied his theory of errors to the results. Another topic studied here by Laplace was the theory of the tides but Airy, giving his own results nearly 50 years later, wrote:-
It would be useless to offer this theory in the same shape in which Laplace has given it; for that part of the Mécanique Céleste which contains the theory of tides is perhaps on the whole more obscure than any other part...
In the Mécanique Céleste Laplace's equation appears
but although we now name this equation after Laplace, it was in
fact known before the time of Laplace. The Legendre functions also
appear here and were known for many years as the Laplace coefficients.
The Mécanique Céleste does not attribute many of the
ideas to the work of others but Laplace was heavily influenced by
Lagrange and by Legendre and used methods which they had developed
with few references to the originators of the ideas.
Under Napoleon Laplace was a member, then chancellor, of the Senate, and received the Legion of Honour in 1805. However Napoleon, in his memoirs written on St Hélène, says he removed Laplace from the office of Minister of the Interior, which he held in 1799, after only six weeks:-
... because he brought the spirit of the infinitely small into the government.
Laplace became Count of the Empire in 1806 and he was named a marquis
in 1817 after the restoration of the Bourbons.
The first edition of Laplace's Théorie Analytique des Probabilités was published in 1812. This first edition was dedicated to Napoleon-le-Grand but, for obvious reason, the dedication was removed in later editions! The work consisted of two books and a second edition two years later saw an increase in the material by about an extra 30 per cent.
The first book studies generating functions and also approximations to various expressions occurring in probability theory. The second book contains Laplace's definition of probability, Bayes's rule (so named by Poincaré many years later), and remarks on moral and mathematical expectation. The book continues with methods of finding probabilities of compound events when the probabilities of their simple components are known, then a discussion of the method of least squares, Buffon's needle problem, and inverse probability. Applications to mortality, life expectancy and the length of marriages are given and finally Laplace looks at moral expectation and probability in legal matters.
Later editions of the Théorie Analytique des Probabilités also contains supplements which consider applications of probability to: errors in observations; the determination of the masses of Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus; triangulation methods in surveying; and problems of geodesy in particular the determination of the meridian of France. Much of this work was done by Laplace between 1817 and 1819 and appears in the 1820 edition of the Théorie Analytique. A rather less impressive fourth supplement, which returns to the first topic of generating functions, appeared with the 1825 edition. This final supplement was presented to the Institute by Laplace, who was 76 years old by this time, and by his son.
We mentioned briefly above Laplace's first work on physics in 1780 which was outside the area of mechanics in which he contributed so much. Around 1804 Laplace seems to have developed an approach to physics which would be highly influential for some years. This is best explained by Laplace himself:-
... I have sought to establish that the phenomena of nature can be reduced in the last analysis to actions at a distance between molecule and molecule, and that the consideration of these actions must serve as the basis of the mathematical theory of these phenomena.
This approach to physics, attempting to explain everything from
the forces acting locally between molecules, already was used by
him in the fourth volume of the Mécanique Céleste
which appeared in 1805. This volume contains a study of pressure
and density, astronomical refraction, barometric pressure and the
transmission of gravity based on this new philosophy of physics.
It is worth remarking that it was a new approach, not because theories
of molecules were new, but rather because it was applied to a much
wider range of problems than any previous theory and, typically
of Laplace, it was much more mathematical than any previous theories.
Laplace's desire to take a leading role in physics led him to become a founder member of the Société d'Arcueil in around 1805. Together with the chemist Berthollet, he set up the Society which operated out of their homes in Arcueil which was south of Paris. Among the mathematicians who were members of this active group of scientists were Biot and Poisson. The group strongly advocated a mathematical approach to science with Laplace playing the leading role. This marks the height of Laplace's influence, dominant also in the Institute and having a powerful influence on the Ecole Polytechnique and the courses that the students studied there.
After the publication of the fourth volume of the Mécanique Céleste, Laplace continued to apply his ideas of physics to other problems such as capillary action (1806-07), double refraction (1809), the velocity of sound (1816), the theory of heat, in particular the shape and rotation of the cooling Earth (1817-1820), and elastic fluids (1821). However during this period his dominant position in French science came to an end and others with different physical theories began to grow in importance.
The Société d'Arcueil, after a few years of high activity, began to become less active with the meetings becoming less regular around 1812. The meetings ended completely the following year. Arago, who had been a staunch member of the Society, began to favour the wave theory of light as proposed by Fresnel around 1815 which was directly opposed to the corpuscular theory which Laplace supported and developed. Many of Laplace's other physical theories were attacked, for instance his caloric theory of heat was at odds with the work of Petit and of Fourier. However, Laplace did not concede that his physical theories were wrong and kept his belief in fluids of heat and light, writing papers on these topics when over 70 years of age.
At the time that his influence was decreasing, personal tragedy struck Laplace. His only daughter, Sophie-Suzanne, had married the Marquis de Portes and she died in childbirth in 1813. The child, however, survived and it is through her that there are descendants of Laplace. Laplace's son, Charles-Emile, lived to the age of 85 but had no children.
Laplace had always changed his views with the changing political events of the time, modifying his opinions to fit in with the frequent political changes which were typical of this period. This way of behaving added to his success in the 1790s and 1800s but certainly did nothing for his personal relations with his colleagues who saw his changes of views as merely attempts to win favour. In 1814 Laplace supported the restoration of the Bourbon monarchy and caste his vote in the Senate against Napoleon. The Hundred Days were an embarrassment to him the following year and he conveniently left Paris for the critical period. After this he remained a supporter of the Bourbon monarchy and became unpopular in political circles. When he refused to sign the document of the French Academy supporting freedom of the press in 1826, he lost the remaining friends he had in politics.
On the morning of Monday 5 March 1827 Laplace died. Few events would cause the Academy to cancel a meeting but they did on that day as a mark of respect for one of the greatest scientists of all time. Surprisingly there was no quick decision to fill the place left vacant on his death and the decision of the Academy in October 1827 not to fill the vacant place for another 6 months did not result in an appointment at that stage, some further months elapsing before Puissant was elected as Laplace's successor.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. — Federal and Springfield officials say an agreement has been reached to fund the replacement of a parochial school badly damaged by a tornado more than two years ago.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency Neighbors of Cathedral High School and St. Michael's Academy have expressed impatience about the future of the property, saying it has become an eyesore.
FEMA will provide 75 percent of an estimated $29.4 million needed to demolish existing facilities and build new ones. FEMA will also provide some of the estimated $9 million needed for temporary facilities, emergency site safety and other costs.
The federal money is in addition to nearly $60 million in insurance money the Diocese of Springfield received after the tornado.
Students are currently taking classes in rented space.

I saw this young Muslim women on the TV news last night. She was demonstrating against the US over that silly video. The interview asked her _"but don't you believe in freedom of expression.
Her answer – "Yes, but not when it comes to religion!"
My response – grow up!
That's why I like this little skit on the current situation (thanks to YouTube video mocking Atheism greeted with global disinterest by Atheists).- I think there are some lessons in it:
A YouTube video mocking followers of science and those who discount the probability of omnipotent deity, has resulted in complete indifference throughout the Atheist community.
Theist comments on the video claim that the video will see "atheists burning down churches the world over!" have been met with blank stares by people who consider themselves 'atheist'.
Non-believer Simon Williams told us, "I'm not sure what reaction they were expecting, but I'm afraid people saying stupid things on the Internet doesn't really bother me."
"What with me being a grown adult and everything. Tantrums haven't really been my thing since puberty."
"Do I want to kill the people behind it? No, of course not."
"Though I would like to give them a few science lessons that didn't end with the conclusion 'God must have done it'."
"But I'm not hopeful."
Youtube video protests
The maker of the video has gone into hiding claiming that Atheist disinterest in his film has infringed his religious freedoms.
The unnamed producer explained, "It says quite clearly in a passage of one of my holy books – a passage that is definitely open to interpretation in the way that I want – that I must take the fight to non-believers – and yet here you all are refusing to fight."
"You are oppressing my religious freedom to claim religious oppression."
"What will it take?! Why can't you at least throw a rock at me or something?"
"It's almost like you're suppressing the evil inside each of you in order not to look like dicks."
"I'm guessing you get the strength from the Devil himself."

On April 22, 2012, Chen Guancheng, a blind Chinese civil rights activist, escaped house arrest after years of torture and abuse for speaking out against the Chinese government's one-child policy and forced sex selective abortions and sterilizations. U.S. and international officials were quick to condemn the Chinese government's persecution of Chen and eventually the Chinese government acquiesced to international pressure, granting Chen a visa to leave China and continue his law studies here in the United States. Chen's plight landed him on the front page of the New York Times, the cover of the Economist, and other newspapers and magazines throughout the world, while he was carefully shepherded to the U.S. with the support of the Obama administration and the State Department.
Only weeks after Mr. Chen landed in the U.S., the pro-life sting operation group, Live Action, released a series of video footage of Planned Parenthood clinics throughout the United States actively and knowingly participating in sex-selective abortions. The videos spread rapidly online and public outcry was such that it sparked a Congressional debate on whether or not to ban sex-selective abortions in the United States. When a bill was introduced that would make it illegal to knowingly perform an abortion due to the sex or gender of the child, the Obama administration—that had just weeks earlier lauded Chen's activism in China—came out in opposition of the bill and threw its support behind Planned Parenthood under the banner of so-called "women's health."
The bill, which needed a two-thirds majority vote in Congress, was defeated.
The practice of sex-selective abortions is a relatively new issue in the United States, but a practice that has become widespread in places like India and China, both patriarchal societies that typically prefer boys to girls. A new documentary film, It's a Girl, produced by Shadowline Films, aims to expose this gruesome, yet common practice, which has led to what the United Nations has estimated as the loss of 200 million "missing" girls.
Unfortunately, as this documentary evidences, it's not just that these girls are missing—it's that they have been aborted, or killed after birth, simply based on the fact that they are girls. As the tagline of the film suggests, the phrase "It's a girl" has become the deadliest three words in the world. Today more females have been aborted or killed than the combined total of all the genocides of the 20th century. Hence, the practice of sex-selective abortions is now commonly being referred to a "gendercide"—the systematic elimination of a particular group of people—in this case, girls.
"Rearing a daughter is like watering a neighbor's tree," goes a local Telugu saying in India. Meanwhile, another popular Hindi expression claims, "A daughter is a burden on her father's head." Or put more bluntly by an Indian woman interviewed in the documentary that aborted or strangled eight of her children after birth, "Why keep girls when raising them would be difficult?" In India, the prospects of raising a girl seem bleak for many families, and for the most part, girls are only viewed as an eventual expense for the mother and father. Due to Indian cultural traditions, parents of girls are expected to offer large dowries in exchange for a husband with nothing in return. Moreover, Indian boys are expected to care and provide for their children later in life, whereas Indian girls are typically separated from their parents after they are married off.
In 1961, the Indian government outlawed the practice of the dowry, but this has yielded very little change or protection to women, as it is deeply ingrained in the local culture. Today, over 100,000 women are killed each year in India in what are known as "dowry deaths," where husbands upset by not receiving a large enough dowry from their bride's family, become violent towards their wives and in many cases, brutally kill them. Similarly, It's a Girl, chronicles the case of Dr. Mitu Khurana, now a prominent Indian activist against female gendercide, whose in-laws bribed a local doctor to perform an illegal ultrasound that revealed she was pregnant with twin girls, subjecting her to further violence from her husband and in-laws and pressure to abort. While the Indian government has also outlawed ultrasounds to determine the sex of the child, most doctors are willing to accept bribes from men eager to find out if their wife is carrying a girl, and if so, subsequently arrange for an abortion.
In neighboring China, the situation is equally dismal. In 1978, China initiated its one-child policy as an effort to curb population growth. The policy limits most families to one-child, and as such, most families hope to have boys to carry on the family lineage. While some families are able to purchase special certificates allowing them to have a second child, poor couples that give birth to a second child suffer from harsh policies that do not acknowledge the second child as a legal person under Chinese law. This has created an entire generation of children that exist in China without citizenship or access to education and healthcare. In addition, families that decide to ignore the policy are often subject to scrutiny by local family planning police, which has created a system that rewards local informants who report families that do not honor the policy. In such an environment, one's neighbor could easily be a paid informant of the Chinese government, and hence, a culture of distrust and fear is widespread.
The past thirty years of China's one child policy has fostered an attitude of social coercion where girls are contemptuously viewed as second-class citizens. It's a Girl highlights several Chinese families that have defied the policy and have suffered great persecution at the hands of local officials. Take for example Li, a mother of three girls who was forced to leave her daughters with family members in order to avoid getting caught for having three daughters. Meanwhile, she and her husband work in a factory over 1,000 miles away from home in order to send money back to support their daughters. Other families are not as willing to provide for girls as Li, which has created the widespread problem of abandonment, as Chinese women simply abandon their daughters as soon as they are born, in hopes of being granted permission to get pregnant a second time with a boy. It's a Girl also captures the story of an elderly woman in a remote village who finds an abandoned baby girl beside a river and decides to take her home to raise it. When the elderly woman's daughter decides to adopt the child, both the woman and her daughter are shunned for providing care and shelter. After all, in the eyes of their neighbors, "it's just a girl."
In 1995, at the U.N. Conference on Women in Beijing, then First Lady Hillary Clinton addressed the delegates by proclaiming that "It is a violation of human rights when women are denied the right to plan their own families, and that includes being forced to have abortions or being sterilized against their will. If there is one message that echoes forth from this conference, it is that human rights are women's rights…. And women's rights are human rights." While the intentions and themes outlined in Clinton's address may be noble, the then First Lady now turned Secretary of State has a problem with consistency. Like her boss, President Obama, Clinton believes—and preaches—that the practice of sex-selective abortions in China, India, and other parts of the world should be condemned and viewed as shameful. Here at home, however, a different story is unfolding.
For several years now, issues of sex-selective abortions abroad have been couched in terms of "abuses to human rights" and "an affront to women's equality" by U.S. policymakers and international officials. Yet, as the recent debates in the U.S. Congress evidence, pro-choice defenders are unwilling to use the same rhetoric in speaking on the matter at home. Here, the issue is being framed in terms of "women's choice" or "women's health." And, at the heart of the debate is the unwillingness of Clinton, Obama, and others to impose any types of limits on abortion. For them, the slightest admission that abortion just might be harmful or damaging to women is an admission both impossible and untenable. Clinton, like many of her counterparts, have staked their defense of legal abortion as a means of supposed protection used by women to shield themselves and protect their futures, their bodies, and their freedoms. Yet, as Live Action's video footage has revealed—or more correctly, made clear to those that had any doubts about the practice—abortion is truly a sword used to fight for a lifestyle of sexual freedom and liberation, in which its adherents will accept no limits or constraints.
It's a Girl serves as a powerful witness to what happens to any society when the dignity of all life fails to receive respect and protection. The gendercide of girls that has taken place over the last thirty years in China and India is evidence of the limitless atrocities that can occur under the banner of "freedom" and "choice" when the most vulnerable are considered dispensable and merely a casualty in efforts to promote equality. In her 1995 Beijing address, Clinton noted that the abuses of women "have continued because, for too long, the history of women has been a history of silence." For now, the video footage of Live Action and the filmmakers of It's a Girl are just two of many such efforts to break the silence, though for now they remain voices that are crying in the wilderness, desperate for help. Will we hear them?
