<mask> (1723 - 1794) was a British mathematician, teacher, cartographer and amateur astronomer. Biography

Early life
He was born to John and <mask> in Crediton, Devonshire, and baptised there on 7 February 1723. His father died at Crediton in 1744. <mask> wrote in his will:

The schoolhouse was the place where the "English school" was kept previously to its union with the blue school in 1821. Life and Career in London
<mask> moved to London in December 1751, where he taught in different schools, and gave private lessons. In 1757, he came before the public as the inventor of the "universal planispheres, or terrestrial and celestial globes in plano", four large stereographical maps, with a transparent index placed over each map,

He published an account of their Description and Use, 2nd edition, octavo, London, 1759. From the preface, it appears that in 1758 <mask> had become master of an academy "for boarding and qualifying young gentlemen in arts, sciences, and languages, and for business", at Chelsea.It was the Maritime Academy, at Ormond House, Paradise Row where there was a good observatory. On 1 January 1760, he made the observation of a remarkable comet. Other discoveries he communicated to the Royal Society; between 1761 and 1771, <mask> contributed nine papers to the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, of which body, however, he was not a fellow. On the title-page of his Atlas he appears as a member of the Philosophical Society at Philadelphia, America. A few of his letters to Thomas Birch are preserved, and one to Emanuel Mendes da Costa. <mask>

title: Harry Hershfield

texts:
<mask> (October 13, 1885 – December 15, 1974) was an American cartoonist, humor writer and radio personality. He was known as "the Jewish Will Rogers". <mask> also was a columnist for the New York Daily Mirror. His books include Laugh Louder, Live Longer and Now I'll Tell One. As a comics artist he is best remembered for his newspaper comic Abie the Agent. Biography
He was born in Cedar Rapids, Iowa on October 13, 1885 to Jewish immigrants. He studied in Chicago at the Frank Holmes School of Illustration and the Chicago Art Institute.His career began at age 14, drawing sports cartoons and his comic strip about a dog, Homeless Hector, for the Chicago Daily News in 1899. He then went West, drawing for the San Francisco Chronicle by 1907. He married Sarah Jane Isdell (?-1960). In 1909, he was hired by Arthur Brisbane to work for William Randolph Hearst's New York Evening Journal. He switched to the New York Graphic where he drew If I'm Wrong, Sue Me!, and when the Graphic folded, he went to the New York Herald Tribune and drew Meyer the Buyer. During the 1930s, <mask> was in demand as a banquet toastmaster, averaging some 200 banquets and dinners annually. During his lifetime, he was toastmaster or master of ceremonies at an estimated 16,000 events, including charity affairs, dinners and stage benefits.Involved in a legal battle with Hearst from 1933 to 1935, <mask> drew a Sunday half-page,

He later commented, "They were so glad to welcome me, the day I arrived they gave me a farewell dinner." He began radio work with a program named One Man's Opinion, and soon after he brought Abie the Agent to an end during 1940, he became a well-known radio personality, telling jokes on the programs Stop Me If You've Heard This One and Can You Top This? He was a frequent guest of early television programs during the 1950s. He died on December 15, 1974 at Saint Clare's Hospital in Manhattan. Occasionally, he favored collages and sometimes made fun of other artists styles.In 1910, he started Desperate Desmond, a humorous continuity strip burlesquing melodramas, dime novels, and fiction weeklies that went in for the hairbreadth rescue and gloating villain sort of material. In addition to the villainous, top-hatted Desmond, the strip featured the stalwart Claude Éclair and the put-upon blond heroine, Rosamond. <mask>'s enthusiastic kidding of this sort of cliffhanger hokum did little to sour the public on its conventions. However, within a few years, such motion picture serials as The Exploits of Elaine and The Perils of Pauline would be attracting audiences to movie houses by doing the stuff completely straight. In 1912, <mask>

Durham, a handsome, pipe-smoking combination of Sherlock Holmes, Nick Carter and Frank Merriwell, was the soul of honor and polite to a fault. The object of his affection was the beautiful Katrina. In 1914, <mask> abandoned parody for a quieter sort of humor and created Abie the Agent.The strip continued until 1940 and dealt with contemporary Jewish life in a big city. Hershfield specialized in gags with a Yiddish flavor. The character was animated for the movie Abie Kabibble Outwitted a Rival (1917). References

<mask> (born <mask>; October 19 1891 – February 22 1978) was an Australian-born vaudeville performer and dancer, active on stage and later in US films, mostly short comedies. Diminutive stage star
Born <mask>, in the inner Melbourne suburb of Fitzroy, to Walter William Trott and Annie née Daniels, she joined the Pollard Lilliputian Opera Company at the age of six, having been taken to rehearsals by her older sister, Ivy, who was also a performer. The Pollard company featured performers whose ages ranged from six to sixteen years, playing light opera, operetta and musical comedy (LeCoq, Offenbach, etc.). They toured Australia, New Zealand and the United States in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and were well received and highly acclaimed. Like many of its performers, <mask>t took her stage name from the Pollard company. In later years she claimed she was related to the "cricketing Trotts," presumably meaning famous Australian cricketers Albert Trott and Harry Trott

Career in the US & UK
<mask> first arrived in Los Angeles during a company tour in September 1901 and was singled out in enthusiastic reviews. In a November 1903 review, the Los Angeles Herald reported that "<mask> has charm.A full contralto speaking voice, a fine mimicry and good health are her ordinary stock in trade possessions; her delightful small personality is the crown, and makes her every inch a little queen of comic opera." Following further tours of Australia, the company was again in North America from late 1905. By 1907 <mask> was confident and popular enough to strike out on her own.

The Los Angeles Times reported that because she was small and not well-developed for her age, Humane Officers thought she was no more than seven. She convinced them that she was actually sixteen.In October 1908, <mask> appeared with a New York company that performed musical and dramatic shows such as The Thief, The Chorus Lady, The Witching Hour, and Girls, among others. The productions were staged at the Grand Opera House. Among her fellow actors were Harry Macdonough and Charles Halton. <mask> appeared with the Ziegfeld Follies and in Winter Garden Theatre shows. In 1909, she was with a group which entertained at Keith and Proctor's Fifth Avenue Theater. In 1914 <mask> was the petite star of The Girl Behind the Counter at the Morosco Theatre on Broadway (Manhattan). The production also featured actor Al Shean.She followed this success with performances in A Knight for a Day (1915) and The Passing Show of 1915. The latter play was staged at The Mason Theater in Los Angeles and also featured Marilyn Miller. In 1917 <mask> was in London, where she appeared with English comedian and singer George Robey, playing the role of "She of the Tireless Tongue" in Albert de Courville, Dave Stamper and Gene Buck's lavishly-staged revue Zig-Zag!, which ran for 648 performances at the Hippodrome.

After a long career on stage and aged in her late thirties, Mack Sennett signed her with great fanfare in June 1927, describing her as an "internationally famous musical comedy and vaudeville star." She was cast in several "Sennett Girl Comedies," two-reel productions designed to show off the beauty of Sennett's latest actresses. Other actresses featured in the girl comedy shorts were Carole Lombard, Anita Barnes, and Kathryn Stanley. Her first title was The Girl from Everywhere, with <mask> receiving title billing. Some of these films included short, two-strip technicolor sequences. In these first movies for Sennett, <mask> demonstrated her talents as a comedian and dancer. Lombard and <mask> became close friends during the time they were working for Sennett.Lombard reportedly said "<mask> and I were just in hysterics the whole time. We used to pull the worst gags on...some of the boys." <mask> went on to work for Vitaphone, RKO Pictures and Universal Pictures. She memorably appeared in several Laurel and Hardy films of the mid-1930s, as a shrewish wife of Oliver Hardy in Thicker than Water (1935) and Our Relations (1936) and also as a maid in Bonnie Scotland (1935), achieving almost 60 screen credits in the seven years between 1928 and 1935.

He then attended the preparatory department of Illinois College before matriculating there in 1839. <mask>'s classmates appreciated his sense of humor. He taught his first class while studying there, a Latin course for the preparatory department. <mask> graduated in June 1843, intending to become a Presbyterian minister.He briefly studied at Lane Seminary in Cincinnati, Ohio, but was forced to drop out due to a lack of funds. He then worked for a book agency, selling maps, but again fell into poverty. An anonymous donor sent <mask> some money and he used the funds to build a private school in northern

In 1847, the University of Missouri hired <mask> as a professor of mathematics. When Jacksonville, Illinois, established a free school in its west district in 1861, it named <mask> its superintendent. He soon became school commissioner of Morgan County, Illinois, in Jacksonville.While there, he joined the state teacher's association and advocated for the creation of the Illinois Industrial University and the Illinois State Normal University. He was named vice president of the Illinois Teachers' Association in 1855 and edited its publication, the Illinois Teacher. He became the publications sole editor in 1858 and was named superintendent of the Jacksonville Female Academy. The Republican Party nominated <mask> for the office of Illinois Superintendent of Public Instruction. <mask> was elected and took office in January 1859. In his first term, he ensured that new schools must receive a state certificate to open. He was re-elected to another two-year term in 1861.He was defeated in a re-election bid in 1862, but was successful in another run in 1864. He would then hold the office for another decade. In his final year, he published an 83-page report suggesting a selection of books for school libraries. <mask> was offered the presidency of several colleges during his terms as state superintendent. In 1875, he agreed to assume the presidency of Knox College in Galesburg, Illinois. He led the school for the next eighteen years. From 1877 to 1891, he was a member of the Illinois Board of Health.In failing health, he resigned in 1893, receiving a position as professor emeritus of the school. He taught only a singly class, spending most of his time compiling the Historical Encyclopedia of Illinois. <mask> married Sarah Dayton in 1850, though she died on May 16, 1857. They had a son, Clifford Rush, and one daughter. He married Annie N. Tyler in 1859; they had two daughters together and adopted an

He is the namesake of <mask>eman Elementary School in Chicago, Illinois. <mask> and <mask> <mask> was a friend and political ally of Abraham Lincoln. When Lincoln would visit the Illinois State Capitol in Springfield, Illinois, on political business, he would stay in the room next to the superintendent's. Lincoln jokingly referred to <mask> as his "little friend", as <mask> was short and Lincoln was tall. The two became close during a seven-month stay by Lincoln in 1860 during his presidential candidacy. An interaction between <mask> in Lincoln is of interest to biographers because of the way it portrays Lincoln's religious beliefs.When Josiah Gilbert Holland was seeking material for his Life of Lincoln, he interviewed <mask>. According to <mask>, Lincoln asked him into his office one day to discuss a political canvass of Springfield. The canvass showed the intended votes of all Springfield voters, and Lincoln was vexed:
Here are twenty-three, ministers, of different denominations, and all of them are against me but three; are here are a great many prominent members of the churches, a very large majority of whom are against me. Mr. <mask>, I am not Christian—God knows I could be one—but I have carefully read the Bible, and I do not so understand this book [the New Testament]. These men will know that I am for freedom in the territories, freedom everywhere as far as the Constitution and laws will permit, and that my opponents are for slavery. They know this, and yet, with this book in their hands, in the light of which human bondage cannot live a moment, they are going to vote against me. I do not understand it at all.Lincoln paused, then paced around the room. He then continued:
I know there is a God, and that He hates injustice and slavery. I see the storm coming, and I know that His hand is in it. If He has a place and work for me—and I think He has—I believe I am ready. I am nothing, but truth is

 everything. I know I am right because I know liberty is right, for Christ teaches it, and Christ is God. I have told them that a house divided against itself cannot stand, and so Christ and reason say the same; and they will find it so.Douglas don't care whether slavery is voted up or voted down, but God cares, and humanity cares, and I care; and with God's help I shall not fail. I may not see the end; but it will come, and I shall be vindicated; and these men will find that they have not read their Bibles aright. Holland's Life of Lincoln used this story to color Lincoln as a religious man. However, as soon as 1872, the story faced criticism. Ward Hill Lamon, a close associate of Lincoln, dismissed the story as inconsistent with Lincoln's character. Likewise, Lincoln's former law partner William Herndon found the story hard to believe even though he approved of the rest of Holland's biography. Herndon sought out <mask> and the two discussed the interview with Holland.<mask> repudiated that Lincoln claimed that "Christ is God", but supported Holland's interpretation. Herndon wrote about the discussion:
On my word, the world may take for granted that Holland is wrong; that he does not state Mr. Lincoln's views correctly. Mr. <mask>, if correctly represented in Holland's Life of Lincoln, is the only man, the sole and only man, who dare say that Lincoln believed in Jesus as the Christ of God, as the Christian world represents. <mask> largely maintained a public silence on the issue. When Isaac N. Arnold asked <mask> about the incident when writing his The Life of Abraham Lincoln, <mask> replied that it was "substantially correct" without further elaboration. <mask>'s interview with Lincoln is generally not included in modern biographies.

<mask> "Kristi<mask> (born June 20, 1974) is an American vertebrate paleontologist and a professor in Biology and Geology at Macalester College. Her research focuses on questions of dinosaur paleobiology, bone histology, growth, and evolution, especially in a subgroup of sauropods called Titanosauria. She has named two dinosaur species from Madagascar, Rapetosaurus, the most complete Cretaceous sauropod and titanosaur found to date, and Vahiny, so far known only from a partial skull. She and Jeffrey A. Wilson co-authored The Sauropods, Evolution and Paleobiology, published in December 2005. Her research includes field work in Argentina, Madagascar, Montana, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. Early life and education

<mask> was born in Sikeston, Missouri, where her passion for paleontology was fostered at an early age. By the time she began research during her undergraduate education under the guidance of Jack Horner, her future career in research was fossilized.Her experience ignited a long-term fascination with the long-necked, giant dinosaurs known as sauropods. She graduated with a degree in Biology from Montana State University in 1996. <mask> completed both her MSc and PhD in Anatomical Sciences from State University of New York at Stony Brook. by 2001. Her graduate advisors, Catherine Forster and David W. Krause, were founding members of the Mahajanga Basin Project, a long-term, National Science Foundation and National Geographic

She was "one of the leading figures in the movement known as 'international mail art'". She is credited with coining the term "femail art" that was taken up by other mail artists around the world. Life

Born 8 July 1936 in Leytonstone, Essex <mask> (Née Holmes) the elder of two daughters <mask> and her family lived at Canvey Island. Her father died of TB when she was young and her wages were needed to support the family. <mask> met her long time collaborator and husband <mask> at Perfect Lambert & Co where they were both employed. They married on 18 February 1953 when <mask> was just sixteen and migrated to Australia in 1962.They had five children Lorraine, Nicholas, Derek, Diane and Eliza. Settling in Luddenham, New South Wales the <mask>'s stayed until 1982 when they moved to Yass, New South Wales. <mask> died on 6 October 1996, an untimely death from cancer. Art

She "exchanged art with an enormous range of international artists and represented Australia in all major exhibitions of postal art".

It was also the basis for successful claims by former Mau Mau detainees against the British government for crimes committed in the internment camps of Kenya in the 1950s. <mask>'s newest book, Legacy of Violence: A History of the British Empire (2022), has received significant reviewer praise, with one calling it a "tour de force of historical excavation."

In its commendation of <mask>, the Pulitzer Prize Committee wrote: "Imperial Reckoning is history of the highest order: meticulously researched, brilliantly written, and powerfully dramatic. An unforgettable act of historical re-creation, it is also a disturbing reminder of the brutal imperial precedents that continue to inform Western nations in their drive to democratize the world." <mask> has been a professor at Harvard University since she completed her doctoral degree in Harvard's history department in 2001. She received full tenure in 2009, and subsequently became the founding director of Harvard's Center for African Studies.She was appointed the Oppenheimer Faculty Director and in her six years as director created one of the world's largest institutions for the study of Africa, raising significant funds and garnering from the US Department of Education's the distinction as a National Resource Center for African Studies. <mask> currently teaches courses on contextual intelligence, modern Africa, the British Empire, and colonial violence in the 20th century. In 2009, Imperial Reckoning served as the basis for an unprecedented legal claim filed by five Mau Mau detention camp survivors against the British government, and <mask> became the claimants' first expert witness before being joined by other historians in late 2010 and 2011. The case, known as Mutua and Five Others versus the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO), was heard at the High Court of Justice in London with the Honourable Justice McCombe presiding.

On June 6, 2013, the British government announced a settlement with the Mau Mau claimants, issuing its official apology of "sincere regret," a £20 million cash payment, and a monument to those tortured during the uprising, unveiled in Nairobi's Uhuru Park in 2015.In the wake of the settlement, Kenyan MP, Paul Muite, told the press that, "Without her research, we would not have been able to mount this suit. The research portion was a momentous task and I credit <mask> for the success of filing the case.

Burning or hiding documents—that certainly erases and distorts history. I was an expert witness in a lawsuit against the British government by Kenyan survivors of detention camps, which led to the 'discovery' of several hundred boxes of unreleased government files on the camps. My book [Legacy of Violence] is, in part, about how we write history when much of the evidence has been destroyed or concealed.This is an important moment, in which statues and documents are coming together to help us reassess how the world became what it is."

<mask> (17 February 1920 – 7 August 2001) was an American country lead guitarist (with some jazz leanings) and studio musician who performed with Ernest Tubb, the Oak Ridge Quartet, Tex Ritter, George Hamilton IV, Jimmy Dickens and others. He helped to popularize the role of the electric lead guitarist in country music and, with fellow guitarist Hank Garland, was responsible for input into the design of the Gibson Byrdland guitar, named after parts of the names of both players. Biography
<mask> was born in Nashville, Tennessee and learned to play the guitar at 10 and appeared on radio playing with local bands whilst still in his teens. At the age of 18 he joined the house band at Nashville's WSM Grand Ole Opry and then worked with Herold Goodman and the Tennessee Valley Boys and Wally Fowler and his Georgia Clodhoppers before and after serving in World War II. In 1949 he commenced his most important association, that with Ernest Tubb as lead guitarist with the latter's Texas Troubadours, a position he occupied until 1959, followed by a second stint between 1969 and 1973, when he effectively retired from the music business. A self-taught guitarist influenced by jazz players such as Charlie Christian and Django Reinhardt, he tutored a number of well-known Nashville session players including Hank Garland and Harold Bradley. With Tubb's band he favored simpler lead lines which can be heard on Tubb hits such as "Jealous Loving Heart," "Two Glasses Joe" and "Answer the Phone."Another side of his lasting legacy is the instrument that bears his name, the Gibson Byrdland thinline electric archtop guitar, developed with input from <mask> and fellow country/jazz guitarist Garland, which was in initial production from 1955 through 1969, and subsequently revived for limited runs several times later. Taking a break from life on the road with Tubb, <mask> recorded several solo instrumental albums between 1959 and 1964 before returning to Tubb's band for a second stint in 1969 until retiring from life as a professional musician in 1973 to run a taxi company in Nashville.

 in his home town of natural causes on August 7, 2001. Influence and guitar style
<mask> was one of the earliest and most widely known featured lead electric guitar players with a popular country outfit (other than the steel guitar players with western swing bands) and as such was influential in establishing this role in Nashville style country music. Although little of his jazz chops was on display in his featured lead breaks with Ernest Tubb, according to other Nashville players in his day he was considered the "best pop jazz player in town" and Harold Bradley (speaking for himself and Hank Garland) is quoted as saying: "Without him coming along and showing us that jazz stuff, we never would have been able to do what we did." In an essay on pedal steel great Buddy Emmons, who joined Ernest Tubb and the Texas Troubadours for a stint in 1958-1959, author Steve Fishell notes: "the Texas Troubadours - considered one of the top bands in country music - proved to be a perfect vehicle for jazzy swing instrumental ideas and arrangements. The band routinely sang and played at dances for two hours before Tubb was introduced, with Buddy and lead guitarist <mask> leading the charge."Some examples of <mask>'s playing on his lead breaks are analysed by Sam Smiley on his instructional website at the page labelled "<mask> Intro Solos". Instruments
<mask> initially favoured Gibson archtop guitars and by the late 1940s was playing a Gibson L-7C. In 1949 he was on the waiting list for a new solid-body electric guitar from noted guitar maker Paul Bigsby and was informed that a novel, double-cutaway instrument initially constructed for guitarist Jimmy Bryant had become available since Bryant had entered an endorsement deal with Leo Fender and would no longer be taking it. This instrument, modified to prominently display <mask>'s name instead of Bryant's, was then sold to <mask> and became his featured instrument on recordings and film clips up until he took delivery of his own Byrdland guitar in 1955 (see below). This guitar was sold in the late 1950s to a Tulsa guitarist named Dick

 Ganders, and subsequently into a private collection on the U.S. East Coast, and is extensively documented in the section entitled "Jimmy Bryant / <mask> Bigsby solid-body electric guitar #10749" on "The Bigsby Files" website. From 1955 onwards, <mask> was associated extensively with the Gibson guitar named after himself and Hank Garland, the Byrdland, a thinline, electric, single cutaway archtop with a shortened scale that presaged Gibson's popular Gibson ES-335 thinline series by several years. <mask> is believed to have received instrument #1, while Garland received #2 and subsequently also #3 which was supplied in a custom cherry sunburst finish.Later, Gibson also produced what was apparently a special order double cutaway version of the Byrdland for <mask>'s use, reverting to a standard scale length, which can be seen on the cover of 1964's "The Golden Guitar of <mask> Byrd" and was later on loan to, and displayed at, the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville. In his later years he was also pictured at home playing a late-1960s Standel guitar which he claimed was his favorite. Discography

Sparta Rotterdam and The Kokmeijer case

Born in Rotterdam to Moroccan parents, <mask> started out his football at SVV/SMC before moving to Sparta Rotterdam, where he started his professional career. <mask> made his debut in professional football, being part of the Sparta Rotterdam squad in the 2003–04 season. Following this, he extended his contract with the club. In his second season, while playing in the Eerste Divisie, <mask> reached the Dutch news headlines due to a heavy foul on Niels Kokmeijer, his opponent playing for Go Ahead Eagles on 17 December 2004. Kokmeijer's leg was broken so badly that he was subsequently forced to retire from professional football. Sparta Rotterdam suspended <mask> for the rest of the season, which was more than the 10 match ban the KNVB awarded him.Besides that he was taken to court by the Dutch government for battery, a unique moment in Dutch football history. <mask> was sentenced to a conditional six months in jail. In April 2008, the highest Dutch court confirmed this. Furthermore, this led him facing bankruptcy after the court ordered him to pay compensation to Kokmeijer. <mask> later reflected on his action, saying that he never injured anyone consciously. But Kokmeijer later disputed <mask>'s claim, maintaining the fact that he attacked him. Sparta Rotterdam qualified for the play-offs where <mask> returned on the pitch and in the last and final play-off match, he scored the club's winning goal over Helmond Sport, thus securing them a spot in the Eredivisie for 2005–06 season.At the end of the 2004–05 season, <mask> went on

In the 2005–06 season, <mask>'s first appearance in Eredivisie came on 21 August 2005, starting the whole game, in a 3–1 loss against Feyenoord. He continued to establish himself in the first team, playing in the midfield position. His performance at Sparta Rotterdam prompted the club to negotiate a new contract with him. Despite this, he scored his first goal of the season on 25 February 2006, in a 3–2 win over Willem II. At the end of the 2005–06 season, making the total of twenty–nine appearances and scoring once in all competitions, his future was uncertain, as <mask> was linked a move away from Sparta Rotterdam. Eventually, he ended the transfer speculation by signing a two–year contract with the club in May 2006.In the 2006–07 season, <mask> continued to establish himself in the first team, playing in the midfield position, but Sparta Rotterdam made a poor start to the season. Despite this, the club managed to regain overcome the results and it wasn't until on 30 December 2006 when he scored, in a 3–0 win over Twente. Halfway through the season, the club was in talks with <mask> over a contract that would keep him until 2010.
