title: Richard K. Guy

type: paraphrased

texts: <mask> was a British mathematician. He was a professor in the Department of Mathematics. He's known for his work in number theory, geometry, recreational mathematics, and graph theory. He is a co-author of Winning Ways for your Mathematical Plays and Unsolved Problems in Number Theory. More than 300 scholarly articles were published by him. The "strong law of small numbers" is a tongue-in- cheek proposal that says there are not enough small numbers available for the many tasks assigned to them. He received an award for this paper.<mask> was born in Nuneaton, England, on 30 September 1916 to William Alexander <mask> and his wife. Both of his parents were teachers. He was not enthusiastic about most of the curriculum at the third oldest school in Britain. He excelled in mathematics and was good at sports. At the age of 17 he read a book. He said it was better than the whole works of Shakespeare. <mask> entered Cambridge's Caius College in 1935 as a result of winning scholarships.He had to travel to Cambridge and write exams for two days to win the most important of these. While at Cambridge, he became an avid composer of chess problems. He stated that his failure to get a first may have been related to his obsession with chess, after graduating with a second-class honours degree. <mask> decided to become a teacher after his parents told him not to. He met Nancy Louise Thirian through her brother, who was a scholarship winner. He and Louise were 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 They were married in December of 1940.<mask> was assigned to the Meteorological Branch of the Royal Air Force with the rank of flight lieutenant.

Even as he passed the age of 100, he continued to work at the office for five days a week. <mask> taught at Canada/USA Mathcamp with George Thomas and John Selfridge. He received an doctorate from the University of calgary in 1991. The university stated that his extensive research efforts and prolific writings in the field of number theory and combinatorics have added much to the foundation of game theory and its extensive application to many forms of human activity.Even after Louise's death in 2010, <mask> and his wife remained very committed to mountain hiking and environmentalism. He donated $100,000 to the Alpine Club of Canada for the training of amateur leaders. The Louise and <mask> hut was built by the Alpine Club to honor them. Michael J. T. <mask> was a computer scientist and mathematician. <mask> died at the age of 103. <mask> taught mathematics in Singapore in 1960. Several difficult mathematical problems were shared with <mask> by Erds.<mask> said he made some progress in each of them. I began to think of myself as a research mathematician after this gave me encouragement. He solved one of Erds' problems after writing four papers with him. <mask> wrote two books about unsolved problems. <mask>'s book Unsolved problems in number theory was the starting point for many number theorists. <mask>'s work was widely respected by professionals. He wrote or co-authored more than a dozen books and collaborated with some of the most important mathematicians of the twentieth century.Among his co-conspirators were Paul Erds, John H. Conway, <mask>, and John L. Selfridge. <mask> published more than 100 research papers in mathematics over the course of his career. The field of recreational mathematics was influenced by <mask>. He collaborated with Berlekamp and Conway on two volumes of Winning Ways. When the Mathematical Games column at Scientific American was retired, <mask> was considered a replacement. <mask> discovered the game's glider after conducting extensive research on the game. The unistable polyhedron with 19 faces was discovered by <mask> in 1968.<mask> was still doing mathematical work as of 2016 A tribute song and video was released to honor his 100th birthday, which was celebrated by his friends and colleagues. <mask> was one of the original directors of the Number Theory Foundation and played an active role in supporting their efforts to "foster a spirit of cooperation and goodwill among the family of number theorists" for more than twenty years.

He made 34 appearances in the 1999–2000 season, but was transferred to another club at the end of the season as Forest missed out on promotion. By July, he had attracted interest from several clubs, including West Bromwich Albion, which is understood to have made an offer. In August 2000 Quashie signed a three-year contract with Pompey for a fee of up to £600,000. He made 37 league and cup appearances in the 2001–02 season as Pompey finished in the lower half of the First Division.

The competition for places is a factor that will be important to us as we fight to move up the table and Curbishley explained that he had signed Quashie because he is an experienced player who will add competition to our central midfield positions. Quashie didn't play a single match because of a foot injury. He came back in a match against Queens Park Rangers. Competition for places in the middle of the field was more difficult because of the signing of Swiss international Valon Behrami and the emergence of academy graduates Jack Collison and Junior Stanislas.He was released by West Ham in January 2010.

Yokich defended <mask>'s outreach. The six regional organizing centers were established by <mask>. He led drives that added 50,000 new members to the union. More than 22,000 state government workers in Michigan belonged to the UAW by 2001. More than 20,000 of the 60,000 new members of the UAW worked outside the automotive industry. Between 2006 and 2009, the UAW organized 6,000 new members under his leadership.Nissan workers in Tennessee rejected UAW representation 2-to-1 in what was seen as a major blow to the union's Southern organizing effort. A major organizing effort at Mercedes-Benz did not result in an election. The union was able to organize auto parts suppliers. <mask> used card check, employer neutrality agreements, and collective bargaining clauses when he was the head of the UAW National Organizing Department. The UAW's use of these types of agreements led to two challenges before the National Labor Relations Board. Workers at two companies organized by the UAW under card-check and neutrality agreements sought to have the UAW ousted as the labor representative at their respective plants. The two cases were consolidated in Dana Corporation.The Board amended its policy so 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 888-282-0476 The decision was declared significant by both right-to-work advocates and labor unions, even though it only applied to future card check campaigns and did not affect the workers at Dana Corp. King was re-elected as vice president in 2002. He was appointed head of the UAW's Competitive Shop/Independents, Parts and Suppliers (IPS) Department, which assisted members and local unions in the auto parts and automotive supply industries. In 2006 King was re-elected to a third term as vice president of the U.A.W. The New York Times reported that the president was elected for another four years. Under UAW rules, vice presidents are appointed to run departments of the union only after they have been re-elected, which prevents candidates for campaigning based on the fact that they will run this department or that one.President Gettelfinger appointed <mask> to lead the Ford unit even though he was in the running to lead the General GM division. <mask> was replaced as head of the National Organizing Department by Vice President Jimmy Settles. <mask> was the leader of the Ford Department during the automotive crisis and negotiated several agreements with the company. In his first public speech as head of the department, <mask> adopted a conciliatory tone towards Ford. In August of 2006 he led negotiations that led to Ford offering its unionized hourly employees buyouts worth tens of thousands of dollars per employee. He was the leader of the team that restructured the union's four-year collective bargaining agreement with Ford. The press called the negotiations "historic" because the company agreed not to close some of its plants, promised to invest in its remaining plants to ensure they will remain open, and was allowed to establish a two-tier wage system.The UAW voted overwhelmingly to approve the agreement. With the automotive industry crisis of 2008–2010, <mask> was forced to go back to the bargaining table in an attempt to save Ford Motor Co. In January 2008, <mask> helped negotiate another wave of buyouts. Ford had hoped for 8,000 workers to take the buyouts, but the total number was only half that. Since 2005, <mask> had helped Ford cut 40 percent of its workforce. In September 2008, the UAW agreed to more buyouts. In February 2009, <mask> led the UAW team in negotiating a historic agreement which allowed Ford to make up to 50 percent of its required payment into the VEBA using common stock in lieu of cash.The agreement also froze wages, cut or eliminated cash bonuses, eliminated pay for laid-off workers, and required workers to take a two-week sabbatical or give up their matching pension contribution. In the 1980's, <mask> was called one of the "bright young hopes for the future" and a "militant" by the press. He was called a leader to watch in the coming decade for expanding the union's membership base outside the automotive industry. In 2002 <mask> began to criticize the retiring UAW President for being too friendly with employers and creating a strong union bureaucracy rather than a strong union. In 2001, Ron Gettelfinger announced he was a candidate for president of the union, and <mask> was re-elected on Gettelfinger's slate. In March 2009, Gettelfinger announced that he wouldn't seek a third term as UAW president, leading some news outlets to declare King one of his possible successors. <mask> began to criticize the three largest American automakers.He had harsh words for General GM, because it took aid from the federal government and still closed plants, and it said it would import vehicles from overseas to meet U.S. demand. Ford asked for a third round of concessionary negotiations in May 2009, as <mask> considered running for the presidency of the UAW. Ford was worried that the concessions the UAW gave to GM and Chrysler could give them a competitive advantage in the future. <mask> didn't start talking to Ford executives until August 2009. Ford wanted changes in work rules, a ban on strikes during the life of the contract, and another two-tier wage system for new hires. A tentative agreement was reached on October 13, 2009, that froze wages for entry level workers, limited but did not eliminate the union's right to strike, required Ford to commit to production levels at existing plants, and required Ford to give workers a $1,000 cash bonus in March 2010. The UAW members at Ford were against the new agreement.UAW members rejected the contract roughly 70 percent to 30 percent despite extensive efforts by <mask>. The rejection of the contract was a reflection of Gettelfinger's leadership, not that of <mask>'s. Gettelfinger invoked a rarely used provision of the UAW's constitution to impose the contract on members. On December 10, 2009, just a month after the Ford contract was rejected, <mask> announced he would run for the presidency of the UAW. There were some concerns voiced in the press about <mask>'s viability as a candidate, since the UAW had lost 40 percent of its membership in the past eight years. Although the rules of the political caucus that nominated <mask> required union officers to retire after 65, the 63-year-old <mask> ran anyway because he could serve only one term. Gary Walkowicz is a member of <mask>'s former Local 600.The Associated Press reported that a Ford worker is in a long-shot bid for the UAW presidency. In 1992 there was a contest for the presidency of the UAW. The race for President of the UAW was won by <mask>. The vote was 2,115 to 74, giving <mask> a winning margin of 97 percent. <mask> is described as a "fiery" public speaker by a newspaper reporter. <mask> said he would pursue an agenda of "equality of gain" under which financially recovered automakers would share their economic gains with workers. The New York Times reported on the desire to share in Big 3's gains after years of pain.The UAW's contracts with Chrysler, Ford, and GM all expire in 2011. <mask> said he would engage in extensive organizing to rebuild the union's membership, as well as roll back some of the concessions the union had made in the past four years. According to the president of Local 600, <mask> is a firm believer in Social Movement Unionism, a philosophy that argues unions should form and promote broad coalitions to seek greater social and economic justice. No one over the age of 65 can run for president of the UAW. <mask> was 67 years old when he decided to retire. <mask> is a member of the NAACP, the Democratic Party, and the Coalition of Labor Union Women. He was a vice president of the Muscular Dystrophy Association.<mask> is a human rights activist. In 1989 he led a group of union officials to monitor elections in El Salvador. <mask> and Fitzsimons have five children, two of which were adopted from South Korea. Akre, Brian A.

The amount was scaled down due to lack of partners beyond Softbank Group and Masayoshi Son. As of 2020, the first fund had invested in 88 companies including Coupang, Didi, Doordash, Fanatics, Grab, Oyo, Paytm, and WeWork, but had experienced an awkward fall from grace as the COVID-19 pandemic and a Chinese regulatory crackdown accelerated the exposure.After the rise ofAlibaba Group, <mask> became a stock investor. He had invested $20 million in Jack Ma's company back in 2000 but passed up early opportunities to invest in other companies. He raised his global profile as a stock investor since starting Softbank Vision Fund, creating an unprecedented investment vehicle of almost $100 billion to back technology startups. He was still struggling to convince investors of the value of his efforts, in part because of fiascoes and troublesome losses with companies such as WeWork, OneWeb, Wirecard, OYO Rooms, Katerra or Greensill Capital, and SoftBank Group's own stock chronically. By October 2021, <mask> <mask> had tripled the number of companies in his Vision Fund 2 portfolio in less than 9 months, SoftBank was cutting more deals with fewer staff than ever, and the average investment amount per company had fallen.

The director said that <mask> Ejiofor was always going to be Solomon Northup. I was looking for someone with that kind of humanity. I needed a person who could keep hold of that, even through periods of extraordinary trying and extraordinary situations where it would be tested to its absolute limit. At the Toronto International Film Festival, <mask> said he hesitated about playing Northup.You wait for a great script to come through the door. You're hassling your agent and then it comes and you read it and you are surprised. Your first thought was, "Can I do this?" He accepted the role the next day. As part of his preparation, Ejiofor learned to play the violin, collected slave stories, maintained a slave's edge up hairstyle, and engaged in some of the physical labour that Northup did like picking cotton. <mask> observed the working dynamic between the director and co-star on Hunger and Shame, since he had not worked with him before.

Solomon has a powerful inner strength, yet he never soft-pedals the silent nightmare that is Solomon's daily existence. "Ejiofor has given notable performances in the past, but this is by far his most essential role to date." He is the point of decency around which the madness of the film is spun.

He was chosen for the role of Scar in the computer animated remake of The Lion King.In the 1994 animated film, played by Jeremy Irons, Ejiofor described Scar as more "psychologically possessed" and "brutalized" than in the original. "Especially with Scar, whether it's a vocal quality that allows for a certain confidence or a certain aggression, to always know that at the end of it you're playing somebody who has the capacity to turn everything on its head in a split second with outrageous," Ejiofor He said that the relationship betweenScar and Mufasa was destroyed byScar's way of thinking. He has a disease of his own ego and want. <mask> is a fantastic actor, who brings us a bit of the mid-Atlantic cadence and a new take on the character.

After moving to the U.S., Amédée started a farm in Iowa where his two sons, <mask> and George, were born. In 1868 the family returned to Belgium, and in 1876 <mask> graduated from the military school with the rank of Sergeant. He was in the 13th line for a year and then in the riflemen's regiment for a few years. His brother also served in the army.<mask> <mask> was assigned to the topographical brigade led by Captain Jungers when he was posted to the Congo in 1885. The administrative capital of the Kasai district, Luluabourg, was founded a year before he arrived. Wissman went on an expedition to the Lubi, leaving <mask>l in command of the post, but was forced to return due to hostile natives and a smallpox epidemic. <mask>l was in the party when Wissman left on another expedition. They heard that the Arabs had taken the post at Stanley Falls. Wissmann decided to press on with a caravan of sixty of the best troops, leaving <mask>l to return to Luluaberg. Luebo told <mask>l that the natives around the post had revolted.The rebellion was crushed by <mask>l. The natives deserted when they saw the enemy. <mask>l narrowly escaped death during the war. The chief Zappo Zap met <mask>l during his retreat. The Belgians soon became important allies of Zappo Zap's warriors. <mask>l was going to return to Europe after three years. He met Alexandre Delcommune, who was an assistant to King <mask>mune. He persuaded <mask>l to delay his return to Europe. <mask>l returned to Boma in July 1889 to start his second term of service. He was appointed Commissioner of the Kasai-Lualaba district after being promoted to lieutenant. Two main tasks were assigned to him. The other was the creation of a military post. The Great Lakes were penetrated by traders from the east coast of Africa in search of slaves and ivory.It was left to <mask>l to find a suitable place to defend against this threat. In May 1890, <mask>l chose Lusambo, at the end of the Sankuru River. <mask>l was asked by the Governor-General to investigate Bena Kamba as an alternative location for the post. Lusambo was chosen after <mask>l did so against his will. The station was soon to be one of the most important military posts in the Belgian Congo. <mask>l brought the Zappo Zaps to Luluabourg, where they were used to enforce the government's policy of taxation and forced labor. <mask>l was given the second task by <mask> II.On December 23, 1890, <mask>l left Lusambo with instructions to raise the Belgian flag in Bunkeya. 180 African soldiers, many of whom were Hausa, were included in the expedition.

title: Ahcene Zemiri

texts: <mask>, also known as Hassan Zumiri, was born in Algeria and lived in Canada for seven years. He and his wife moved to Afghanistan. When they tried to leave in November 2001 <mask> was arrested and turned over to the US forces. He was held in the United States for eight years without being charged. <mask> was accused by the terrorist convicted in 2001 of planning the Los Angeles Airport bomb of being involved in the plot. He recanted his accusation in late 2006 <mask> was freed from the Gitmo Bay in January 2010 and returned to Algeria.<mask> <mask> was raised as a Muslim in Algeria, where he was born. He moved to Canada as a young man. He moved to Montreal in 1994 and became a legal resident. He married a Canadian woman in 1997. The couple moved to Afghanistan in 2001. They decided to leave because of fighting in November. They decided to separate due to the fact that women and children were being allowed to enter Pakistan safely.After their son was born, they did not see each other again. According to Zemiri, bounty hunters picked up her husband and sold him to the Americans. The Americans transferred <mask> to Gitmo in 2002 after being questioned by Canadian security officials. Zemiri was accused by Ressam of being involved in the plot to bomb the Los Angeles Airport. <mask> was brought to the attention of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) in 2004, after the Canadian government found out that he had been arrested. They interviewed Djamel Ameziane, an Algerian who was captured in Afghanistan and sent to Gitmo, as well as Mohamedou Ould Slahi, a Mauritanian who was captured in Afghanistan and sent to Gitmo. The government denied that some people had seen Canadian officials.The accounts were not confirmed until July 2008, after the Canadian Supreme Court ordered the release of certain materials related to the case of the Canadian citizen. The CSIS agents may have colluded with the US during interrogation under torture, so the Canadian government was reviewing their role. The US Supreme Court had held that the government was violating the law when it was detaining people at Gitmo. According to a report in the Toronto Star, <mask> and two others were interviewed by Canadian security officials. In 2004, the United States Supreme Court ruled that prisoners had the right to review their cases before an impartial tribunal to determine if they were enemy combatant. The Center for Constitutional Rights organized a program of finding lawyers in the United States who would agree to serve as the lawyers for the captives at Gitmo. The lawyers from the firm met with <mask> <mask> in 2005 and agreed to serve pro bono to represent him.They stated in the petition that their client had not been a member of the Taliban, al-Qaeda or other terrorist groups and had not caused or tried to harm American personnel or property. Combatant Status Review Tribunals were established by the Bush administration to respond to the court. <mask> was designated an "unlawful enemy combatant" by the U.S. because of the allegations that he was involved in the LAX plot. Annual Administrative Review Board hearings were scheduled for those who were labeled "enemy combatant" by the Combatant Status Review Tribunal. These hearings were designed to determine if there were other factors that justified the continued imprisonment of a person. In January 2007, the press reported that a man who had been convicted in 2001 of planning the Millennium bombing wrote a letter to the judge accusing <mask> of being involved in the plot. He wanted to clarify his allegations against <mask>.The judge who sentenced Ressam was Coughenour. Mr. Zemiry has no connection to the operation I was about to carry out. I borrowed money and a camera from him, but he didn't help me in any way, and he didn't know anything about it. Ressam said he had offered false information because he was in shock and had a severe psychological disorder. The man was sentenced to 22 years in prison. Reporters suggested at the time of his trial that he was at risk for a life sentence, which was reduced because he cooperated by naming other suspects. <mask>'s lawyer said that the letter undermined the most damning allegation against his client.The letter was forwarded to American military officials. The attorneys for <mask> <mask> and Mohammedou Slahi appealed through the Canadian Justice system for the release of classified documents about the two men. They were trying to get information from Canada. Before they went to Afghanistan, both men were interviewed by Canadian security officials. The notes from the men's Canadian interviews would have been used by the US to build a case against them. In order to make their case for the men's freedom in the US Justice system, they requested the Canadian evidence. The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms did not apply to the men because they were not Canadian citizens.The Canadian government was ordered by the Supreme Court of Canada to publish documents that the United States had given them about the Canadian citizen. Nathan Whitling, one of the men's Canadian lawyers, predicted that the men's American cases in the United States would be heard before the appeal he planned of Blanchard's ruling could get through the court. On January 20, 2010, <mask> <mask> and Adil Hadi al Jazairi Bin Hamlili were returned to Algeria as their country of origin and citizenship. It was not clear if the two men had been sent home as free men or if they had been transferred to Algerian security custody. She said that two other Algerians had been granted asylum in France because of their fear of returning home. There are people from Algeria who are living in Canada and Algeria who are living in France.

His medical history showed no signs of high blood pressure, heart or kidney trouble or diabetes, even though he was partially blind from glaucoma and completely blind from cataracts by the age of 112.He was able to walk without a cane, preferring not to use one, and was able to feed himself, including his favorite ice cream with his other meals and a daily can of Ensure for energy. He preferred to focus on his own exploits on the job instead of complaining about the nature of his unit. <mask> was the second oldest person in Washington at the time of his death. He had four daughters, his son, nine grandchildren and seventeen great-grandchildren. He was buried in Washington, D.C. at Arlington National Cemetery.

title: Kenneth John Frost

texts: <mask> was a pioneer in the early space program, designing and flying instruments to detect and measure X-rays and gamma-rays from the Sun. He was the first to suggest the use of an active scintillation shield to reduce the background from cosmic rays. He worked as a civil servant for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration while he was an American astrophysicist. He was the project scientist of the Solar Maximum Mission, the principal investigator of six science instruments, the head of the Solar Physics Branch, and the associate director of Space Sciences. The <mask>. Lindsay Memorial Award was given to <mask> in 1982 for his role as Project Scientist and one of the prime instigators of the Solar Maximum Mission. Each year, the Lindsay Award is given to the employee who best exhibits the qualities of broad scientific accomplishments in the area of Space Science. It is named after <mask>, the man who hired <mask> more than twenty years earlier and who was responsible for starting the series of OSOs that produced many of the advances in solar physics and astrophysics in the 1960s and '70s.On October 3, 1934, <mask> was born in Brooklyn, New York. He obtained a Bachelor of Science degree from Manhattan College in New York City after graduating from Holy Trinity Diocesan High School. He was in the graduate program at the University of Rochester in upstate New York for a year before leaving to work for NASA. He was one of the first people hired by this new agency and worked at both the Naval Research Laboratory and the newly opened Goddard Space Flight Center. He worked at Goddard for his entire career until 1997. He died at the University of Maryland Medical Center's R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center at the age of 78 after a fall at his home. The Sun was <mask>'s first concern and he was interested in any and all sources of high energy X-ray and gamma-ray photons in space, no matter where in the universe they came from.He was the principal investigator of many flight instruments. He was the head of the Solar High Energy Branch and helped define the role of the Space Station in the early days of science. He was the associate director of Space Sciences before retiring in 1997. A total of 130 papers and presentations are listed in NASA's science legacy, with <mask> as co-author with 57 of them and seven of them being lead authors. Two of his papers helped advance our understanding of solar flares. The paper "Evidence from Hard X-Rays for Two-Stage Particle Acceleration in a Solar Flare" was published in 1971 and was based on observations of a solar flare. It has been cited 154 times today, with 5 citations in 2013 alone.The second paper, published in 1969 and entitled "Rapid Fine Structure in a Burst of Hard Solar X-Rays Observed by OSO-5," has 116 citations. At the start of the space program in the late fifties and early sixties, there was a recognition that X-rays and gamma-rays, not visible from the ground, offered a new. New scientific discoveries that could rival or exceed what had been achieved with ground-based optical astronomy could be achieved with these high-energy photons. To determine the intensity and spectrum of the emission from the Sun and other distant sources of this radiation, there was a great demand for ever-improving X-ray and gamma-ray instruments. When the first attempts were made to detect X-rays and gamma-rays from the Sun, they were found to be of the same order of magnitude as the maximum theoretical estimates. Any detector had to be able to suppress this background. Since it generated its own background through interactions with cosmic rays, lead shielding to reject this background and provide angular collimation was unsuccessful.The use of an active scintillation shield around the X-ray/gamma-ray detector was suggested by <mask>. The figure shows the proposed instrument. The design was developed in collaboration with a colleague at the University of Minnesota. On June 10, 1962, they built an instrument and flew it on a high-altitude balloon over Minneapolis. They were able to demonstrate the instrument's performance and establish upper limits on the amount of gamma-rays from the Sun between 160 and 800 keV that were "considerably below those previously available." Variations on this basic technique are still being used today, as the standard for making high sensitivity observations of solar and cosmic sources becameActively shielded X-ray and gamma-ray spectrometers of this type became the standard for making high sensitivity observations of solar and cosmic sources. The OSO-1, 2, 5, and 8 were all covered by the OSO Series Frost, which was thePI for active anticoincidence spectrometers.The instruments all had the same basic design with an active anti-coincidence collimator. The University of California, San Diego (UCSD), Edward Chupp at the University of New Hampshire (UNH), and others developed similar instruments that were flown on OSO-1, 3, and 7. The Solar Maximum Mission (SMM) was launched on February 14, 1980. The first in-orbit repair using the Space Shuttle was recorded in 1984. SMM reentered the Earth's atmosphere on December 2, 1989. Seven instruments were selected to provide coordinated observations of solar activity. The hard X-ray spectrum of thousands of solar flares was measured by the PI of the HXRBS.The primary indicator of energetic electrons in solar flares is HXRBS observations. The HXRBS X-ray time histories and the flares they were interested in were used by many scientists. For a decade, the standard measure of solar hard X-ray emission was confirmed by the observations. The back-up unit from the OSO-5 spectrometer was flown ten years earlier because of the free access to HXRBS data. His contributions to the early days of solar physics observations from space are an important legacy. There are many papers in the literature with important science results based on the analysis of data from <mask>'s instruments, but his role is not always made clear. A large number of scientific instruments were approved by <mask>.His advocacy role in solar physics is considered to be one of his greatest contributions. He advocated for new missions that could be approved by the political process. The Solar Maximum Mission was started by <mask>. It did not achieve the goal of revealing a complete understanding of solar flares, but it did set the foundation for future solar space missions. Manhattan College alumni, University of Rochester alumni, and New York City scientists are some of the people mentioned.
