Human body temperature to give the most accurate assessment of core body temperature, particularly in hypothermia. In the early 2000s, ingestible thermistors in capsule form were produced, allowing the temperature inside the digestive tract to be transmitted to an external receiver; one study found that these were comparable in accuracy to rectal temperature measurement. In the 19th century, most books quoted "blood heat" as 98 °F, until a study published the mean (but not the variance) of a large sample as . Subsequently that mean was widely quoted as "37 °C or 98.4 °F" until editors realised 37 °C is closer to 98.6
Centigrade (film) originally to go to another actor, but difficulties forced Cunningham to take the part himself. The script was written 17 years ago; Madison Graie suggested to Cunningham that they apply for the Directors Guild of Canada's "Kickstart Program" to make "Fahrenheit" ("Centigrade"'s original title). The pair won one of the five Kickstart awards and used the $20,000 CAD prize to make the film. Due to signing with Shorts International, "Centigrade" will be available on iTunes, the first Canadian live action short to appear there. Cunningham and Graie are working on turning "Centigrade" into a feature film. "Centigrade"'s Award for Best
