    Extractions: By Andrew Hoffman Chapter One: Inventing Sam Clemens Training is everything. The peach was once a bitter almond; cauliflower is nothing but cabbage with a college education. "Pudd'nhead Wilson's Calendar" (1894) Two months premature and weighing five pounds, the baby born to John Marshall and Jane Lampton Clemens on November 30, 1835, in the frontier hamlet of Florida, Missouri, had the worst possible prospects. "A lady came in one day," Jane Clemens wrote later, and "said you don't expect to raise that babe do you. I said I would try. But he was a poor looking object to raise." Writing as Mark Twain, Samuel Langhorne Clemens would claim that Florida, Missouri, "contained a hundred people and I increased the population by one per cent. It is more than the best man in history ever did for any other town." In 1835, the hamlet consisted of just two dusty roads and as many shacks as were needed to house a few hundred people a day's horse-ride away from the nearest Mississippi River community. Laid out in 1831, Florida sat on high, fertile ground where the north and south forks of Salt River joined thirty land miles from the Mississippi and seemed a likely spot to mill and ship the products of the outlying farms. By 1835, the first horse-powered mill gave way to a few water-powered ones; small, flat-bottomed boats carried produce the eighty river miles down to the town of Louisiana, Missouri, where Salt River joined the Big Muddy.

Shulman From 1968 to 1975, I spent much of my time as a faculty member helping to create a new medical school at Michigan State University. I became particularly interested in the clinical work of faculty members in medicine. Many of my professorial colleagues were physicians who cared for patients while also doing research and teaching. They read the medical literature voraciously to ensure that the clinical care they provided patients (and modeled for students) was state-of-the-art. Many of them also conducted clinical research, both informally and formally. They carefully documented their diagnoses and treatment plans. They followed patients to track the course of treatments and responses. Periodically, they published sets of cases illustrating the efficacies of different interventions. At times, they moved from the systematic documentation of their clinical work to "clinical trials," more formal experimental studies in which experimental and control groups are compared over time. Thus, medical faculty not only engaged in scholarly healing; they contributed whenever possible, and in various ways, to a scholarship

    No. 894 inventing PRINTING.  
    http://www.uh.edu/engines/epi894.htm
    
    Extractions: by John H. Lienhard Click here for audio of Episode 894. So: How did we really figure out how to print words on paper? The University of Houston's College of Engineering presents this series about the machines that make our civilization run, and the people whose ingenuity created them. T he oldest known piece of paper was made in Shangsi Province in China around 49 BC. That's about the same time sheepskin was replacing papyrus in the Roman world. So what is paper, really? You make paper by spreading out a slurry of organic fibers and draining off the water. Paper is a kind of felt made of overlapping fibers. At first the Chinese made paper from hemp. They used it for wrapping and decoration not for writing. They'd already been wrapping themselves in felt clothing. In AD 105, one Ts'ai Lun used paper to replace bamboo blocks as a writing surface. He made it from fibers of bark, bamboo, and hemp. By AD 500, the Chinese had experimented with rattan and mulberry and had finally settled on bamboo paper. And they not only wrote on their paper. They printed on it as well. Of course printing is, in the broadest sense, older than coal. Stamps, brands, royal seals even imprints of fossils on limestone are, after all, forms of block printing.

The 45-year-old R.E.M. guitarist is said to have assaulted two British Airways cabin crew during a prolonged bout of "loutish behaviour" 35,000 feet above the Atlantic. He insisted during Thursday's hearing at west London's Isleworth Crown Court that his account of downing the tablet with a glass of wine at the start of the flight was true. During questioning by prosecution barrister David Bate QC, Buck denied making up the tablet story to cover his drunken behaviour on the 10-hour Seattle-to-London flight. Buck was arrested when the plane landed at Heathrow and he told the court that "it didn't really occur to me" to tell the police about the pill.

    Extractions: A painting of black scientist George Washington Carver, one of America's most prolific inventors. Story Tools (CNN) Take a bite out of your peanut butter sandwich, stop at the traffic signal, then turn left onto Pennsylvania Avenue as you explore Washington, D.C. And don't forget to thank the African-American inventors specifically George Washington Carver (who created dozens of peanut-related products), Garrett Morgan (the man behind the modern stop light) and Benjamin Banneker (mathematician, astronomer and key architect of the nation's capital) who made it possible. These men, and their innovations, aren't the only ones deserving of gratitude. From hands-on creations like pencil sharpeners and golf tees, to less tangible but no less important advancements such as refining sugar and storing blood, black inventors have profoundly impacted our day-to-day lives. That said, it has not been easy for black innovators. Slaves were considered property, not free people who could create and market inventions. Even given a post-Civil War boom of African Americans seeking patents, blacks have long struggled to get jobs, education and recognition.

    http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/04_08/b3871044.htm
    
    Extractions: No one should be surprised when economic or budget forecasts coming out of Washington are influenced by politics, especially during an election year. But when economic history is rewritten with political consequences that's going too far. President George W. Bush's Council of Economic Advisers, chaired by Harvard economist N. Gregory Mankiw, is trying to get away with exactly such revisionist history. The CEA's Economic Report of the President, released Feb. 9, unilaterally changed the start date of the last recession to benefit Bush's reelection bid. Instead of using the accepted start date of March, 2001, the CEA announced that the recession really started in the fourth quarter of 2000 a shift that would make it much more credible for the Bush Administration to term it the "Clinton Recession." In a subsequent press conference, Mankiw said that the CEA had looked at the available data and "made the call."

    Extractions: The Magnificent Safety Pin The safety pin was invention and an improvement of a pin. Both improved and invented by a man named walter Hunt in New York the year eighteen forty nine. The safety pin is made out of a small piece of metal. This metal in which the safety pin was made was a combination of copper, iron, aluminum, gold, silver, and platinum. These metal were heated and formed into a small piece of combined metals. It all started one afternoon.. Walter Hunt had to think of a way on how to pay back a fifteen dollar debt. He was sitting at his desk just twisting a piece of wire while trying to think of how to pay back his debt. He sat twisting wire for three full hours and realized what he had created. He called it the safety pin. He although did not invent the safety pin he just improved it. The man whom Hunt had borrowed the money from was the one who gave him the piece of wire and told him he would pay him four hundred dollars for all the rights to whatever Walter Hunt created. In exchange Walter Hunt sold him the safety pin and all the rights to the device.

    Extractions: Peter H. Duesberg, 'Inventing the AIDS Virus' Regnery USA 1996, 720 pages, ISBN 0-89526-470-6. HIV does not cause AIDS... AIDS is not sexually transmitted... AZT makes AIDS worse, not better... So argues Dr. Peter Duesberg, one of the world's leading microbiologists, a pioneer in the discovery of the HIV family of viruses, and a member of the National Academy of Sciences. Duesberg's evidence - revealed in top scientific journals but kept out of the mainstream press - raises questions the AIDS research establishment has so far declined to answer: With annual federal funding at more than $7 billion, AIDS research is better funded than any other disease - including cancer. Yet it has also produced the least results. Why? Duesberg explains how the lure of money and prestige, combined with powerful political pressures, have tempted otherwise responsible scientists to overlook - even suppress - major flaws in current AIDS theory.

    http://www.thebulletin.org/issues/1998/ma98/ma98conetta.html
    
    Extractions: It was a remarkable admission for a chairman of the Joint Chiefs: "I'm running out of demons. I'm down to Kim Il Sung and Castro." The context for Gen. Colin Powell's 1991 remarks to Congress was the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact and America's recent victory in the Gulf War. When the Soviet Union collapsed soon after, an article in Aerospace Daily, a leading defense industry newsletter, recalled Powell's remarks and predicted: "Pentagon Budget Headed for $150 BillionHalf Current Level By 1996." But what a difference a few years can make. When he unveiled the "Quadrennial Defense Review" last May, Defense Secretary William Cohen warned that "new threats and dangers, harder to define and more difficult to track, have gathered on the horizon." Contrary to Aerospace Daily's forecast, Secretary Cohen sees keeping the Pentagon budget at $250 billion or slightly moreabout 77 percent of the 1991 level. Beginning with efforts at the Rand Corporation during the late 1980s, the focus of defense planners has shifted from "the clear and present danger" of Soviet power to the intractable problem of "uncertainty." Along with this shift has come a new type of Pentagon partisan-the "uncertainty hawk."

    Extractions: by Suzanne Ross For over twenty years scientists have been dreaming about creating a real P.A.D.D., the slate device that the inhabitants of Star Trek used to record and access data as they moved around the starship Enterprise. There have been attempts to duplicate it over the years, but the Tablet PC may be the first successful incarnation. Some of this is timing - consumers are demanding more from their computers, and they want what the Tablet offers. The other reason is research - years of hard work and data gathering have made the Tablet PC possible. Tablet PC is an evolution of the portable PC. It takes the best from a standard laptop and adds features that make retiring your laptop one of the smartest ideas you've ever had. To start with, it uses multi-modal input - you can input with keyboard, pen, or voice. While you may be committing a social faux pas by burying your head behind a computer screen as you click on a keyboard during a meeting, you will feel perfectly comfortable taking notes in your own handwriting on the Tablet PC. Even better, the handwriting recognition in Tablet PC can take your handwriting (as long as your writing doesn't resemble chicken scratches) and transform it into digital text. You can then search your handwritten notes.
