paragraph: John Dutton Candee

paragraph: John Dutton Candee (June 12, 1819 – February 27, 1888) was an American newspaper editor and politician.

paragraph: Candee, younger son of Benjamin and Almira C. (Dutton) Candee, was born in Pompey, Onondaga County, New York, June 12, 1819. His parents returned about 1825 to their native state of Connecticut, where his mother was soon left a widow in needy circumstances. At the age of 13 he began to work in a printing office in New Haven, and continued in the business until his admission to the Sophomore Class of Yale College. Upon graduation in 1847, he took a two years' course at Yale Law School, and after a year's absence prospecting in Iowa returned to New Haven and practiced law for about twelve years.

paragraph: He then took temporary charge of the editorial department of the "New Haven Journal and Courier", and finding the occupation congenial, he purchased in 1863 a controlling interest in the "Bridgeport Daily Standard", and removed to that city. He continued in this position until his death in Bridgeport, after an illness of several weeks, on February 27, 1888, in his 69th year. In 1882, he was the unsuccessful Republican candidate for Lieutenant Governor of Connecticut.

paragraph: He married, October 29, 1863, Sallie B. Smith, daughter of the Rev. Dr. Samuel F. Smith, of Newton Center, Mass., who survived him with two of their three daughters.

paragraph: Otto M. Nikodym

paragraph: Otto Marcin Nikodym (3 August 1887 – 4 May 1974) was a Polish mathematician. He was educated at the Universities of Lwow and Warsaw, and the Sorbonne. Nikodym taught at the Universities of Kraków and Warsaw and at the Akademia Górnicza in Kraków. He came to the United States in 1948 to join the faculty of Kenyon College. He retired in 1966 and moved to Utica, N.Y., where he continued his research.

paragraph: Nikodym worked in a wide range of areas, but his best-known early work was his contribution to the development of the Lebesgue–Radon–Nikodym integral (see Radon–Nikodym theorem). His work in measure theory led him to an interest in abstract Boolean lattices. His work after coming to the United States centered on the theory of operators in Hilbert space, based on Boolean lattices, culminating in his "The Mathematical Apparatus for Quantum-Theories". He was also interested in the teaching of mathematics.

Babu Rao, CBCNC in Secunderabad and Gnana Robinson, CSI in Bangalore. Incidentally, Sugandhar's senior graduate companion R. Yesurathnam, CSI who had been notable as a Systematic Theologian became Principal of the Protestant Seminary in Secunderabad in 1994 coinciding with the bishopric of Sugandhar.

paragraph: Sugandhar also participated in the governance of these two seminaries as a member of the respective Seminary societies on the Board of Governors of Andhra Christian Theological College and on the Council of the United Theological College.

paragraph: Section::::Contribution.:Gender equality in ordination of Pastors.

paragraph: It was in 1970 that the Church of South India Synod led by P. Solomon first mooted the ordination of women, resulting in objections from the Laity and a decade of legal recourse followed and efforts were made by the CSI-Synod to overcome them, leading to full-fledged ordination of women in 1982 during the term of I. Jesudason, that led to the ordination of Elizabeth Paul, the first ordained Woman priest in the Church of South India Synod.

Samarpana Kumari, a seminarian at the Andhra Christian Theological College who underwent Spiritual formation during the Principalship of M. Victor Paul, AELC and was ordained by the diocese during the bishopric of Victor Premasagar. Following that, when Sugandhar took over the mantle in 1993, Woman priests continued to be ordained and he supported its cause and stood by societies which promoted it, especially the Association of Theologically Trained Women in India in which Sugandhar also delivered a talk on the role of Women priest during one of its regional plenaries held at Jeevan Jyothi Formation Centre in Begumpet during the term of its Secretary, Florence Deenadayalan, CSI, Treasurer, Johanna Rose Ratnavathi, AELC and its President, Navamani Elia Peter, MCI.

T. Nanavati ruled in favour of the Diocese of Medak thereby overruling an earlier High Court of Andhra Pradesh judgement. In 1996, in the case of "B. P. Sugandhar, Bishop - in - Medak Versus D. Dorothy Dayasheela Ebenezer", the manner of conduction of domestic enquiry was highly appreciated by then juridical experts and the case law continues to be used as a citation in the courts of law.

paragraph: Anton Wilhelm von L'Estocq

paragraph: Anton Wilhelm von L'Estocq (16 August 1738 – 5 January 1815) was a Prussian cavalry general best known for his command of the Prussian troops at the Battle of Eylau.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: L'Estocq was born in Celle, Electorate of Hanover, the son of a Huguenot Prussian officer. In 1757 he became a cadet officer of the Gensd'armes regiment of Berlin. During the Seven Years' War, he participated in the battles of Zorndorf, Kunersdorf, and Torgau. After a battle near Langensalza, he received the Pour le Mérite.

paragraph: In 1768 L'Estocq became first lieutenant and served in the hussar regiment of General Hans Joachim von Zieten. Initially Zieten's adjutant, he was promoted successively to cavalry captain, major, lieutenant colonel, and colonel. In 1779, L'Estocq was stationed near Fehrbellin, where he assisted General Zieten with the regimental business in that area. In 1790 King Frederick William II of Prussia named L'Estocq battalion commander of the Regiment von Eben (2nd Hussar Regiment).

paragraph: During the First Coalition against revolutionary France, L'Estocq participated in the battles of Kaiserslautern, Morsbrunn, and Trippstadt. In 1794 he took command of the 2nd Hussar Regiment, which was stationed in Westphalia to guard the border with France after the 1795 Peace of Basel.

paragraph: Section::::Major-general.

paragraph: Promoted to major-general, L'Estocq was stationed in New East Prussia in 1803, commanding all troops in the province as head of the 9th Hussar Regiment. In 1805 he was promoted to lieutenant-general.

paragraph: During the War of the Fourth Coalition, L'Estocq and his chief of staff, Gerhard von Scharnhorst, commanded some 15,000 troops based at Thorn in December 1806 and at Freystadt in January 1807. Harassed by Marshal Ney, L'Estocq marched his troops from February 2 – February 8 through snowy and forested East Prussia; it has been described as "a model of the way in which a flank march in the face of a near and powerful adversary should be conducted".

paragraph: The Russian troops of Bennigsen were hard-pressed by Marshal Davout in the Battle of Eylau (February 7-February 8, 1807). Leading the last operational unit in the Prussian army, L'Estocq was only able to bring eight battalions, twenty-eight squadrons, and two horse artillery batteries (estimated at 7,000-9,000 men) to the battle; the rest of his soldiers were defending against Ney. Upon the small Prussian contingent's arrival at Preußisch Eylau, Bennigsen wanted it split up to reinforce his weakened Russian troops. Scharnhorst, however, advised L'Estocq to strike with his cavalry around the Russian lines at Davout's exhausted troops; the sudden attack threw the French into disarray. Following the battle, L'Estocq's corps retreated to Preußisch Friedland to maintain coalition communications with Russia.

paragraph: Section::::Honours.

paragraph: For their leadership in the battle, L'Estocq received the Order of the Black Eagle and Scharnhorst the Pour le Mérite. While the Prussian Army had been crushed at Jena-Auerstedt, L'Estocq's troops restored honor to the demoralized military. Colmar Freiherr von der Goltz wrote, "it was at Eylau in 1807, and not the War of Liberation in 1813, that the old army vindicated itself before the tribunal of history". Von der Goltz attributed the success to Scharnhorst's planning and L'Estocq's initiative and willingness to attack.

paragraph: After the coalition defeat in the Battle of Friedland and the humiliating Treaties of Tilsit, L'Estocq was part of an investigatory commission into the causes of Prussia's defeat in the Fourth Coalition. Because of his successful cooperation with L'Estocq, Scharnhorst successfully lobbied for attaching a chief of staff to each field commander in 1813.

paragraph: L'Estocq became Governor of Berlin on 12 November 1808, and of Breslau in 1814. After his death in Berlin on 5 January 1815, L'Estocq was buried in the cemetery of the city's garrison church three days later.

Initially composing for installations and dance companies, since 1995 he has released music on the UK label Touch. He has collaborated with artists such as Gavin Bryars, Jah Wobble, Jaki Liebezeit, David Sylvian, and Janek Schaefer.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Philip Jeck studied Visual Arts at Dartington College of Arts, Devon, England. He became interested in record players after visiting New York in 1979 and being introduced to the work of DJs such as Walter Gibbons and Larry Levan. He began exploring composition using record players and electronics in the early 1980s. In his early career, he composed and performed scores for dance and theatre companies, including a five-year collaboration with Laurie Booth. He has also composed scores for dance films "Beyond Zero" on Channel 4 and "Pace" on BBC 2.

paragraph: Jeck is perhaps best known for his 1993 work "Vinyl Requiem" with Lol Sargent, a performance for 180 Dansette record players, 12 slide-projectors and 2 movie-projectors which won the "Time Out" Performance Award in 1993.

paragraph: Arne Nordheim

paragraph: Arne Nordheim (20 June 1931 – 5 June 2010) was a Norwegian composer. Nordheim received numerous awards for his compositions, and from 1982 lived in the Norwegian government's honorary residence, Grotten, next to the Royal Palace in Oslo. He was elected an honorary member of the International Society for Contemporary Music in 1997. On 18 August 2006, Arne Nordheim received a doctor honoris causa degree at the Norwegian Academy of Music. He died at the age of 78 and was given a state funeral.

paragraph: Section::::Musical education.

paragraph: At the then Oslo Conservatory of Music (now the Norwegian Academy of Music), where Nordheim studied from 1948 to 1952, he started out as a theory and organ student, but changed to composition, studying with Karl August Andersen (1903–1970), Bjarne Brustad, and Conrad Baden. Then in 1955 he studied with Vagn Holmboe in Copenhagen, and studied "musique concrète" in Paris. Later he studied electronic music in Bilthoven (1959), and paid many visits to the Studio Eksperymentalne of Polish Radio (1967–1972), where many of his early electronic works were realised (including "Pace", "Solitaire", and "Lux et tenebrae (Poly-Poly)"). In 2005, many lost and forgotten tapes of electronic compositions for radio drama for the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (NRK) were rediscovered, reminding us that Nordheim also developed his electronic musical language in his home country.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: His "Essay" for string quartet was first performed in Stockholm in 1954, but Nordheim always considered his "String Quartet" of 1956 as his Opus 1. His musical output is focused around themes of 'solitude, death, love, and landscape'; these themes are already evident in his song cycle "Aftonland" ("Evening Land", 1959), a setting of poems by the Swedish poet Pär Lagerkvist, which brought him national recognition. The 1961 Canzona "per orchestra" was his international breakthrough. Inspired by Giovanni Gabrieli's "canzone", the work showcases Nordheim's historical leanings, as well as his occupation with space as a parameter of music. Nordheim's spatial concerns, coupled with his focus on death and human suffering, are brought together in what is arguably his most famous work, Epitaffio "per orchestra e nastro magnetico" (1963). Written in memory of the Norwegian flautist Alf Andersen, who died that year at a very young age, the work incorporated Salvatore Quasimodo's poem "Ed è sùbito sera". Originally conceived for orchestra and chorus, Nordheim realised that his wish to have the whole performance space 'singing' was better achieved with the use of electronic means. The result is a remarkable, almost imperceptible, blending of the orchestral sounds with the choral sounds of the tape, where the final line " ('and suddenly it is evening') is the only part of the text that can be heard.

paragraph: His later compositions include "The Tempest" (1979), "Klokkesong" (1984), "Magma" (1988), the Violin Concerto (1996) and "Fonos" for trombone and orchestra (2004). Arne Norheim was inspired by the neumes and the sound of the medieval bells in Kaupanger stave church in composing the work "Klokkesong", which was first performed in the church. In "The Tempest", a ballet based on Shakespeare's play, electronics and orchestral sounds are again mixed, while the focus is more strongly on vocal music (e.g. the 'double voice' of Caliban), while Nordheim's continued use of historical elements is shown by the incorporation of Leonardo da Vinci's musical rebus, which solved reads "Amore sol la mi fa remirare, la sol mi fa sollecita".

paragraph: 1968 saw Arne Nordheim being bestowed with the Nordic Council Music Prize for his "Eco" for soprano, two choirs and orchestra. The work marks the start of a new development phase, in which Nordheim proved that he could create electrophonic-sounding timbres from conventional instruments.

paragraph: Throughout his career, Nordheim would receive a number of commissions which would result in such works as "Greening" (1973) written for Zubin Mehta and Los Angeles Symphony Orchestra; the ballet "Stormen" (1979) for Schwezinger Festival in Germany; the cello concerto "Tenebrae" (1980) for Mstislav Rostropovitch; "Aurora" (1983) for vocal ensemble Electric Phoenix and the orchestral work "Magma" (1988) for the Concertgebouw Orchestra in Amsterdam. Additional major works include "Wirklicher Wald" (1983) for soprano, cello, choir and orchestra commissioned for the centenary anniversary for the Oslo Music Conservatory and "Boomerang" (1985) for oboe and chamber orchestra written for the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra.

paragraph: "Draumkvedet" is a monumental stage work for orchestra, (acting) chamber choir, soloists and dancers, and was performed 40 times in 1994 with the Broadcasting Corporation Radio Orchestra and Grex Vocalis. A recording featuring these performing forces conducted by Ingar Bergby was made in 2001, and released in 2006 as a two-CD set on the Simax label (Simax PSC 1169). Based on a medieval Norwegian poem (Draumkvedet, The Dream Song), the work was composed in honor of the millennium of the city of Trondheim in 1997.

paragraph: Nordheim was a great admirer of playwright Henrik Ibsen and devoted time to study his life and literary output. Nordheim composed music for Den Nationale Scene’s performance of Peer Gynt. On a number of occasions, Nordheim held talks titled “Thre composers' approaches to Peer gynt” which featured a highlight where Edvard Grieg’s music for Aase’s Death was sampled and spliced with Nordheim’s own composition. Naturally, both composers had elected to compose their scores for this scene in b minor.

paragraph: To commemorate Nordheim’s 70th birthday in 2001, a celebratory concert was held, featuring the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra. The Norwegian ministry of culture and church affairs would also celebrate the composer, and established the Arne Nordheim Composer’s Prize which is bestowed on an annual basis to a composer of Norwegian residence.

paragraph: In later years, Nordheim suffered from dementia, and expired early on Saturday 5 June 2010, following a prolonged bout of illness. The state funeral was held at the Oslo Cathedral on 16th of June.

paragraph: Chris Whitley

paragraph: Christopher Becker Whitley (August 31, 1960 – November 20, 2005) was an American blues/rock singer-songwriter and guitarist. During his 25-year career he released more than a dozen albums, had two songs in the top 50 of the Billboard mainstream rock charts and received two Independent Music Awards. Whitley's sound was drawn from the traditions of blues, jazz and rock and he recorded songs by artists from many genres. He died in 2005 of lung cancer at the age of 45.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Whitley was born in Houston, Texas and learned to play guitar when he was fifteen. His father was an art director and his mother was a sculptor. During his youth he lived in Dallas, Texas, Oklahoma, Connecticut, Mexico and Vermont. His parents "grew up on race radio in the South" and their musical tastes—including Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix—influenced Whitley.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: During the early 1980s Whitley was busking on the streets of New York City and collaborating with musicians Marc Miller, Arto Lindsay and Michael Beinhorn. He was given a plane ticket to Ghent, Belgium in 1981, and lived there for six years, recording several albums and playing with the bands Kuruki, 2 Belgen, Nacht Und Nebel, Alan Fawn, and A Noh Rodeo.

paragraph: In 1988, producer Daniel Lanois heard Whitley perform at the Mondo Cane club in New York City and he helped Whitley obtain a recording contract with Columbia Records. In 1991 two of Whitley's songs charted on the Billboard Mainstream Rock charts: "Big Sky Country" (#36) and "Living with the Law" (#28).

paragraph: In 2000, Whitley recorded his album "Perfect Day", an album of cover songs, with Chris Wood and Billy Martin and followed up with the album "Rocket House" in 2001.

paragraph: Whitley's song "Breaking Your Fall" from the album "Hotel Vast Horizon" (2003) won the 3rd Annual Independent Music Awards for Folk/Singer-Songwriter Song. In 2004 he won The 4th Annual Independent Music Award for Blues/R&B Song for his composition "Her Furious Angels" from the album "War Crime Blues". Whitley was an inaugural member of The Independent Music Awards' judging panel to support independent artists and collaborated with Jeff Lang on an album called "Dislocation Blues" in 2005.

paragraph: Section::::Career.:Style.

paragraph: Whitley's style drew on an array of influences. In 2001, "The New York Times" described him as "restless, moving into noise-rock and minimalist jazz evoking Chet Baker and Sonic Youth as much as Robert Johnson". He recorded songs by Robert Johnson and Bob Dylan as well as Lou Reed, James Brown, J.J. Cale, The Clash, Nat King Cole, The Doors, Willie Dixon, The Flaming Lips, Jimi Hendrix, Howlin' Wolf, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Kraftwerk, Gary Numan, The Passions, Prince, The Stooges, and Sonny Boy Williamson II.

paragraph: Notable fans of Whitley's music include, ATO co-founder Dave Matthews, blues guitarist Robert Lockwood, Jr., Bruce Springsteen, Bruce Hornsby, Tom Petty, Jacob Golden, Myles Kennedy, Don Henley, Iggy Pop, Alanis Morissette, Sandi Thom, John Mayer, Gavin DeGraw, Joey DeGraw, Johnny A., Joe Bonamassa and Keith Richards.

paragraph: Whitley used various alternate tunings and, among other musical instruments, often played slide guitar on a National resonator guitar.

paragraph: Section::::Death.

paragraph: In fall 2005, Whitley canceled his tour due to health issues. In November he was reported to be terminally ill with lung cancer and under the care of hospice. He died on November 20, 2005 in Houston, Texas at the age of 45. After his death, musician John Mayer said, "[Whitley's] somewhat prostrated place in pop culture earned him a sidebar of an obituary, but to those who knew his work, it registers as one of the most under appreciated losses in all of music." Whitley is survived by his brother Dan and his musician daughter, Trixie Whitley.

paragraph: Zhang Zhongjing

paragraph: Zhang Zhongjing (; 150219), formal name Zhang Ji (张机), was a Chinese physician, writer and inventor of the Eastern Han dynasty and one of the most eminent Chinese physicians during the later years of the Han dynasty. He established medication principles and summed up the medicinal experience until that time, thus making a great contribution to the development of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Though well known in modern Chinese medicine and considered one of the finest Chinese physicians in history, very little is known about his life. According to later sources, he was born in Nanyang, held an official position in Changsha and lived from approximately 150 to 219 AD. Exact dates regarding his birth, death and works vary, but an upper limit of 220 AD is generally accepted.

paragraph: It is also speculated that he created jiaozi (餃子 - gyoza or potstickers) to help people with frostbitten ears.

paragraph: During his time, with warlords fighting for their own territories, many people fell victim to infectious diseases. Zhang's family was no exception. He learned medicine by studying from his towns fellow and later teacher Zhang Bozu, assimilating from previous medicinal literature such as "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic"

paragraph: "Huangdi Neijing" (黄帝内经), and collecting many prescriptions elsewhere, finally writing the medical masterpiece "Shanghan Zabing Lun" (, lit. ""Treatise on Cold Pathogenic and Miscellaneous Diseases""). Shortly after its publication, the book was lost during the wars that ravaged China during the period of the Three Kingdoms. Because of Zhang's contribution to traditional Chinese medicine, he is often regarded as the sage of Chinese medicine.

paragraph: Zhang's masterpiece, "Shanghan Zabing Lun", was collected and organised later by physicians, notably Wang Shuhe (王叔和) from the Jin Dynasty (晋) and various court physicians during the Song Dynasty (宋) into two books, namely for the former, the "Shang Han Lun" (傷寒論, lit. ""On Cold Damage""), which was mainly on a discourse on how to treat epidemic infectious diseases causing fevers prevalent during his era, and the latter, the "Jingui Yaolue" (金櫃要略, lit. "Essential Prescriptions of the Golden Coffer"), a compendium of various clinical experiences which was regarded as a main discourse on internal diseases. These two texts have been heavily reconstructed several times up to the modern era. Revered for authoring the Shāng Hán Zá Bìng Lùn, Zhang Zhongjing is considered to have founded the Cold Damage or "Cold Disease" school of Chinese medicine and is widely considered the seminal expert to this day.

paragraph: Rafael Bombelli

paragraph: Rafael Bombelli (baptised on 20 January 1526; died 1572) was an Italian mathematician. Born in Bologna, he is the author of a treatise on algebra and is a central figure in the understanding of imaginary numbers.

paragraph: He was the one who finally managed to address the problem with imaginary numbers. In his 1572 book, "L'Algebra", Bombelli solved equations using the method of del Ferro/Tartaglia. He introduced the rhetoric that preceded the representative symbols +"i" and -"i" and described how they both worked.

paragraph: Section::::Life.

paragraph: Rafael Bombelli was baptised on 20 January 1526 in Bologna, Papal States. He was born to Antonio Mazzoli, a wool merchant, and Diamante Scudieri, a tailor's daughter. The Mazzoli family was once quite powerful in Bologna. When Pope Julius II came to power, in 1506, he exiled the ruling family, the Bentivoglios. The Bentivoglio family attempted to retake Bologna in 1508, but failed. Rafael's grandfather participated in the coup attempt, and was captured and executed. Later, Antonio was able to return to Bologna, having changed his surname to Bombelli to escape the reputation of the Mazzoli family. Rafael was the oldest of six children. Rafael received no college education, but was instead taught by an engineer-architect by the name of Pier Francesco Clementi.

paragraph: Rafael Bombelli felt that none of the works on algebra by the leading mathematicians of his day provided a careful and thorough exposition of the subject. Instead of another convoluted treatise that only mathematicians could comprehend, Rafael decided to write a book on algebra that could be understood by anyone. His text would be self-contained and easily read by those without higher education.

paragraph: Rafael Bombelli died in 1572 in Rome, Italy.

paragraph: Section::::Bombelli's "Algebra".

paragraph: In the book that was published in 1572, entitled "Algebra", Bombelli gave a comprehensive account of the algebra known at the time. He was the first European to write down the way of performing computations with negative numbers. The following is an excerpt from the text:

paragraph: As was intended, Bombelli used simple language as can be seen above so that anybody could understand it. But at the same time, he was thorough.

paragraph: Section::::Bombelli's "Algebra".:Complex numbers.

paragraph: Perhaps more importantly than his work with algebra, however, the book also includes Bombelli's monumental contributions to complex number theory. Before he writes about complex numbers, he points out that they occur in solutions of equations of the form formula_1 given that formula_2 which is another way of stating that the discriminant of the cubic is negative. The solution of this kind of equation requires taking the cube root of the sum of one number and the square root of some negative number.

paragraph: Before Bombelli delves into using imaginary numbers practically, he goes into a detailed explanation of the properties of complex numbers. Right away, he makes it clear that the rules of arithmetic for imaginary numbers are not the same as for real numbers. This was a big accomplishment, as even numerous subsequent mathematicians were extremely confused on the topic.

paragraph: Bombelli avoided confusion by giving a special name to square roots of negative numbers, instead of just trying to deal with them as regular radicals like other mathematicians did. This made it clear that these numbers were neither positive nor negative. This kind of system avoids the confusion that Euler encountered. Bombelli called the imaginary number "i" “plus of minus” and used “minus of minus” for -"i".

paragraph: Bombelli had the foresight to see that imaginary numbers were crucial and necessary to solving quartic and cubic equations. At the time, people cared about complex numbers only as tools to solve practical equations. As such, Bombelli was able to get solutions using Scipione del Ferro's rule, even in the irreducible case, where other mathematicians such as Cardano had given up.

paragraph: In his book, Bombelli explains complex arithmetic as follows:

paragraph: After dealing with the multiplication of real and imaginary numbers, Bombelli goes on to talk about the rules of addition and subtraction. He is careful to point out that real parts add to real parts, and imaginary parts add to imaginary parts.

paragraph: Section::::Reputation.

paragraph: Bombelli is generally regarded as the inventor of complex numbers, as no one before him had made rules for dealing with such numbers, and no one believed that working with imaginary numbers would have useful results. Upon reading Bombelli's "Algebra", Leibniz praised Bombelli as an ". . . outstanding master of the analytical art." Crossley writes in his book, "Thus we have an engineer, Bombelli, making practical use of complex numbers perhaps because they gave him useful results, while Cardan found the square roots of negative numbers useless. Bombelli is the first to give a treatment of any complex numbers. . . It is remarkable how thorough he is in his presentation of the laws of calculation of complex numbers. . ."[3]

paragraph: In honor of his accomplishments, a moon crater was named Bombelli.

paragraph: Section::::Bombelli's method of calculating square roots.

paragraph: Bombelli used a method related to continued fractions to calculate square roots. His method for finding formula_3 begins with formula_4 with formula_5, from which it can be shown that formula_6. Repeated substitution of the expression on the right hand side for formula_7 into itself yields a continued fraction

paragraph: for the root but Bombelli is more concerned with better approximations for formula_7. The value chosen for formula_10 is either of the whole numbers whose squares formula_11 lies between. The method gives the following convergents for formula_12 while the actual value is 3.605551275... :

paragraph: The last convergent equals 3.605550883... . Bombelli's method should be compared with formulas and results used by Heros and Archimedes. The result formula_14 used by Archimedes in his determination of the value of formula_15 can be found by using 1 and 0 for the initial values of formula_7.

paragraph: Jordan (Bishop of Poland)

paragraph: Jordan (died in 982 or 984) was the first Bishop of Poland from 968 with his seat, most probably, in Poznań. He was an Italian or German.

paragraph: Most evidence shows that he was missionary bishop subordinate directly to the Pope. He arrived in territory of future Poland, probably from Italy or the Rhineland, in 966 with Doubravka of Bohemia to baptise Mieszko I of Poland. After the death of Jordan until 992 the throne was vacant, or there was a bishop of unknown name (the first theory is more probable). His successor, from 992, was Unger.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: On the basis of his name can only conclude that he came from one of the countries Romance (Italy, France or Lorraine). Jan Dlugosz considered him a Roman of the family Orsini, however, provides no historical support for this. A certain popularity in the literature enjoys ejected by Wladyslaw Abraham hypothesis about the origin of the Diocese in Lorraine (now Liege in Belgium). Another hypothesis assumes that could be Italian with the Patriarchate of Aquileia, which included its jurisdiction over the Slav peoples in the north-western Balkans. Regardless of nationality, it is likely he had a relationship with the Roman Catholic Diocese of Regensburg, which were subject to the Czech Republic. Probably belonged to the Benedictine order, though sources anywhere do not explicitly state this.

paragraph: Section::::Episcopal Work.

paragraph: A reconstruction activities Jordan is largely based on guesswork. Some historians believe he was originally a priest accompanying Dobrawie, in 966 to Mieszko I, or that he was an auxiliary bishop of the diocese of Regensburg, which were subject to the Czech Republic, (this is disputed by some) or a monk sent to the Polish mission directly by the emperor.

paragraph: Section::::Episcopal Work.:Dating.

paragraph: Polish and Czech yearbooks serve as the year 968 as the date of his ordination, some historians believe, however, that it should be moved about a year or two back, esp. Thietmar that seems to link him directly with the baptism of lives. If we accept a transfer from Magdeburg, in December 968 Jordan was present at the enthronement of the first metropolitan Adalbert of Magdeburg.

paragraph: Section::::Episcopal Work.:Location.

paragraph: Some have questioned if his base was Poznan at all suggesting Gniezno, or that he did not have a permanent establishment only traveled with the duke's court after the country.

paragraph: About his work as a Polish bishop, we have only a general relationship of Thietmar of Merseburg of his "tireless efforts-induced them in word and deed to the cultivation of the Lord's vineyard."

paragraph: Jordan died approx. 982-984 [a]. His immediate successor was probably Unger though there may have been an unnamed bishop).

paragraph: His exploits have been commemorated in kabuki theatre, folk songs, jidaigeki, and modern pop culture.

paragraph: Section::::Capture and tattoo.

paragraph: In 1822, he was caught and tattooed, and banished from Edo. On August 8, 1831, he was captured again, and confessed to the burglary of over 100 samurai estates and the impressive theft of over 30,000 ryō throughout his 15-year career. He was tied to a horse and paraded in public before being beheaded at the Suzugamori execution grounds. His head was then publicly displayed on a stake. He was buried at Ekō-in located in the Ryōgoku section of Tokyo. So many pilgrims chip away pieces of his tombstone for charms that substitute stones have had to be constructed since shortly after his death.

paragraph: Section::::Background.

paragraph: At the time of the arrest, Jirokichi was found to have very little money. This, combined with the public humiliation he dealt out to the "daimyō", resulted in the popular legend that he gave the money to the poor, turning the petty crook into a posthumous folk hero similar to Robin Hood. The fact that he died alone, serving his wives with divorce papers just prior to arrest in order to protect them from sharing in the punishment as the law decreed, further enhanced his stature.

paragraph: Section::::Nickname.

paragraph: Jirokichi's nickname, Nezumi Kozō, is not a name. "Nezumi" is the Japanese word for "rat"; a "kozō" was a young errand-boy who worked in a shop in the Edo period. The nickname can thus be roughly translated as "rat boy". Since a nickname containing the term "kozō" was often given to pickpockets, who were often young boys and girls since the profession required nimble fingers, it has been suggested that Jirokichi was a well known pickpocket when he was younger.

paragraph: Maurice Delage

paragraph: Maurice Charles Delage (13 November 1879 – 19 or 21 September 1961) was a French composer and pianist.

paragraph: Section::::Biography.

paragraph: Delage was born and died in Paris. He first worked as a clerk for a maritime agency in Paris, and later as a fishmonger in Boulogne. He also served for a time in the French army, before embarking on a music career in his twenties. A student of Ravel, who proclaimed him one of the supreme French composers of his day, and member of Les Apaches, he was influenced by travels to India and Japan in 1912, when he accompanied his father on a business trip. Ravel's "La vallée des cloches" from "Miroirs" was dedicated to Delage.

paragraph: Delage's best known piece is "Quatre poèmes hindous" (1912–1913). His "Ragamalika" (1912–1922), based on the classical music of India, is significant in that it calls for prepared piano; the score specifies that a piece of cardboard be placed under the strings of the B-flat in the second line of the bass clef to dampen the sound, imitating the sound of an Indian drum.
