Extractions: NZMS Newsletter 63, April 1995 CENTREFOLD Alexander Craig Aitken Alexander Craig Aitken was born on 1 April 1895 in a rented house in Short Street, Dunedin. William, his father, had been born at Maungatua, a small settlement on the Taieri Plain about twenty miles from Dunedin. William's parents were rural Scots, strong, intelligent people and immensely hardworking. They settled on a small farm at Sandymount on the Otago Peninsula, an area which possessed even into recent years an enchanting separateness in which flora, fauna and human individuality could flourish beyond common expectation. William left the farm to take up a position as a grocer's assistant in Dunedin. There he met and later married Elizabeth Towers, the daughter of his landlady. Elizabeth had arrived in New Zealand at the age of 7; little is known about her. The Aitkens' circumstances were straitened even by the standards of the time. It was nevertheless a loving and harmonious family, infused with a deep but tolerant religious sensibility that derived from William's commitment to Methodism. The qualities for which Aitken later gained a not entirely welcome tabloid fame, his memory and calculating ability, were present from his earliest years. His father possessed similar qualities and the two of them would do the shop's accounts together, one adding up the column, the other down as a check, both working mentally. It was in his later years at Otago Boys' High School that Alec, in his own phrase, "took off" under the influence of W J Martyn, the mathematics master. He began to cultivate mental computation almost as a kind of meditation: his descriptions of it and certain other experiences are frequently expressed in mystical terms. He learned the

Extractions: Nixon: a Life, by Jonathan Aitken Nixon and Aitken from the book cover What a beautiful book! Probably it could only have been written by someone living at a distance, spared the full force of unremitting hatred of Nixon from the American media and Hollywood. It required an author who (unlike biographer Ambrose) knew Nixon personally, had worked with him, and could exercise a world view and a working practice of foreign affairs, a combination that would be hard to find in our media or in our historians. Aitken was a 23-year-old admirer of John F. Kennedy on the British Parliamentary staff when he met Nixon in 1966, starting to reenter world politics after losing the governorship of California to Pat Brown. Former Prime Minister Alec Douglas-Home and former Foreign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd were "crushingly dismissive" of Aitken's briefing paper describing Nixon as washed up. Both, it turned out, were Nixon admirers, like Adenauer and De Gaulle. The young Aitken stayed silently in the London flat to hear Nixon's dazzling conversation, in which he predicted that Japan would become an economic superpower, that the Vietnam war had to be ended quickly, and that China had to be brought back into the family of nations, and that Britain might play a part in bridge-building. Aitken was present when, on two occasions, years apart, Nixon delivered informal talks to Oxford students that became part of the university's history.

Research This lead to a collaborative project supported in part by the Geological Survey ofCanada involving Donald Lemmen and alec aitken (University of Saskatchewan). http://geog.queensu.ca/gilbert/h1.html
Extractions: Research focusses on present sedimentary processes in glacial and postglacial lakes and the nearshore ocean, and on environmental and paleoenvironmental assessment from the sedimentary record. Two principal techniques are applied: acoustic subbottom survey, and analysis of cores recovered from the sediments. In the Cordillera of western Canada work that began in the 1960s and 1970s has been followed by studies of a number of lakes in collaboration with Joseph Desloges (University of Toronto). The first was glacier-dammed Ape Lake which partially drained several times in the late 1980s ( Gilbert and Desloges, 1987 ). Studies of large montaine lakes included Harrison Lake ( Desloges and Gilbert, 1991 ) Stave Lake ( Gilbert and Desloges, 1992 ) and Lillooet Lake ( Desloges and Gilbert, 1994 ) in the southern Coast Mountains. More recent work includes study of Moose Lake in the Rocky Mountains ( Desloges and Gilbert, 1995 ), Bowser Lake in the northern Coast Mountains ( Gilbert et. al., 1997 ) which receives water and sediment from lakes which were formerly glacier-dammed and self-draining, and Chilko Lake ( Desloges and Gilbert, 1997

Extractions: Aleph cero Por SHAHEN HACYAN Ciudad de México (31 enero 2002).- Todavía en el siglo pasado los escolares teníamos que aprender de memoria las tablas de sumar y multiplicar. En esas épocas lejanas, cuando no había calculadoras de bolsillo, las operaciones aritméticas se hacían a mano, con papel y lápiz. Según cuenta Aristóteles, Platón decía que entre el mundo material y el de las ideas se encuentra el mundo de las matemáticas. Algunos humanos tienen una habilidad extraordinaria para ver directamente ese mundo intermedio; son los grandes matemáticos de la historia. Otros pueden ver un sector reducido de él, cuyas piezas fundamentales son los números; muchos grandes matemáticos, como Euler y Gauss, fueron capaces de realizar complicadísimos cálculos de memoria.

Extractions: AUSTRALIAN CONNECTION Dan Spilman's (1848-1915) maternal uncle emigrated to Australia in 1854. Thomas Forman Aitken was born July 25, 1833 in Walcot, Lincolnshire, England. He was the ninth of ten children born to his parents Alexander Aitken and Eleanora Forman . Portrait of Alexander below: Alexander Aitken was born on 22 Dec 1776 in Midhope, Midlothian, Scotland. He walked down to Lincolnshire, England to seek employment as a gardener. He died on 12 Jul 1865 in employment with Lady Strickland at Walcot Hall, Alkborough as bailiff. Lady Stickland had a picture painted of the old man and the family gave it to his grandaughter, Mary, when they left the district for Cotesbach, Leicestershire. Portrait is now (2002) is with Nigel Spilman at Whitton. Thomas' mother told him that he was named in honour of fathers old master Mr. Thomas Goulton.
