MU Extension > Tom Benton's Missouri > About the filmmakers
Expand all | Collapse all
In 1969, with a freshly minted master's degree in English from the University of Kansas, I arrived at the University of Missouri-Rolla, where I had been hired to knock the corners off engineers. For the next 10 years I taught writing and literature, and finished off my dissertation on William Blake's illustrated epic "Jerusalem." After a decade of wrestling with the mega-intellectual English bookmaker-mystic, I was ready for something different, and when I looked around, there was Missouri — and Thomas Hart Benton: accessible, American, large scale. Out my window I could see his visions of rolling pasture, twisted forest and elongated Ozark clouds. Furthermore, his most ambitious mural, A Social History of the State of Missouri, was just up the road in Jefferson City in the Capitol building.
As part of a lecture series on Benton that I organized for the Missouri Humanities Council, Bob Dyer sang his ballads of Missouri history surrounded by Benton's murals in the House Lounge. Over a couple of milkshakes after that event, as I remember it, Frank Fillo and I came up with the idea of making a documentary about the mural that would not insult art historians nor bore junior high kids. It took several years and 20 hours of 16mm film to catch Benton's masterwork. When "Tom Benton's Missouri" was released as a half-hour film and VHS cassette in 1992, the documentary was widely shown on PBS stations around the country and intensively in Missouri. A cutting-edge — at the time — floppy disk teachers' guide accompanied the film into classrooms, and the package was widely used over the next decade. An award for Best Short Feature at the Great Plains Film Festival marked the film's critical success.
A Portuguese-language version of "Tom Benton's Missouri" was developed as a follow up to my Fulbright lectureship in the Amazon state of Pará. Benton was one of the ways I taught American culture, and there is abiding interest in his work in Brazil, the land of another great muralist, Candido Portinari.
Revisiting the film to retrofit it for high-definition digital distribution has been a treat. Our decision to let the mural speak for itself with narration by Benton, background from Bob Priddy and the music of Bob Dyer has kept the bold joy and cutting satire of the mural alive in yet another medium. Now another generation can decide for itself what to make of Benton's art.
Frank Fillo led the Cooperative Media Group at the University of Missouri for many years before retiring in 2009. He holds a bachelor's degree in film studies, with a minor in creative writing and English literature, from MU.
Before joining University Communications at MU in 1981, Fillo was a cinematographer for Basic Issue Films, a New York documentary film production company; a producer/director for several independent film and television productions; and a radio talk show host. He also produced live coverage of the 1976 Republican National Convention for a consortium of NPR and Community Radio stations. His work has been featured on the "ABC Nightly News," CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, The Discovery Channel, Arts and Entertainment Network, National Geographic Channel and other national media outlets.
Fillo's work has been honored with a CINE Golden Eagle, four Telly awards, first place in the Great Plains Film Festival, a red ribbon in the American Educational Film and Video Festival, and a screening at the Venice International Art Film Festival.
He has devoted his life in retirement to raising and showing purebred Shih Tzus and hopes one day to add an American Kennel Club Best of Show to his awards list.
After so many years, I have a hard time remembering exactly how this film began. What I do remember is that I was recording a Bob Dyer performance at the House Lounge in the Missouri State Capitol on April 15, 1984, and after the performance, Jim Bogan and I shared ideas over a few root beer floats. The big questions were: How can we raise the funds to cover the cost of the film, and would the University support the idea. University support came rapidly, but the grant funding took years. If not for Jim Bogan's persistence, the film would never have been made.
Memory of that time is now blurred by the passing years, but I do remember two strong feelings I had:
The current group of people who worked on the HD restoration of the film and revamped the study guide are equally talented. Both groups gave so much to the film.
Michael Hicks, who oversaw the restoration and HD conversion of "Tom Benton's Missouri," has been creating industrial and educational videos since 1983. His creative spark was apparent early on: The first of his many awards was from the International Television Association for his Mizzou student film, "Hard Days," a lighthearted look at a young man developing his self-confidence and self-worth. After working at a few other colleges, in 1991 Hicks landed back at Mizzou, where he has helped to guide his office through many technological changes and advancements. "Through every change I worked to maintain our high standard and to effectively keep our office distributing the key messages," says Hicks "The way we do business has transformed many times, but our goal has remained the same: to help people understand the value of Extension and the University." Hicks' efforts to combine curriculum design and educational needs with the latest advancements in media have paid off. Through his career, Hicks has won many national awards, including Crystal Communicators, Bronze Apples, Videographer's Awards, ITVA Awards, and 18 Tellys.
Hicks performed some minor audio editing and other tasks for the original release of "Tom Benton's Missouri." "I've always felt the film gave great insight into Benton, allowed deeper understanding of the mural and that the soundtrack always inspired children and adults. I'm proud to have a chance to give it new life and allow it to introduce another generation to the rich history and hard work it took to build our state," says Hicks.
Throughout his work, Hicks has strived to find a way to visually enhance each story. Hicks explains his philosophy of shooting: "I feel that you have to focus on what the pictures are saying about the story as much as the story itself." This vision is also evident in the refinements and clarity Hicks brings to every project he edits. "My goal is that after all the editing is done, the viewer will forget they are watching a synthetic image representing the story and just enjoy the moment as if it was real.
A documentary Hicks wrote, filmed and edited, "Battle: Change From Within," is currently on the festival circuit, appearing at such venues as the Seedling Film Association's 2012 Offshoot Film Fest.

thedeparturegate.com necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 273 diseños de 72 diseñadores freelance.
the departure gate
In short, we create many of the global success stories you shop in every day..... all of the following started with one location.... Body Shop, Flight Centre, McDonalds, Adidas, Jenny Craig, Boost Juice etc etc
the departure gate is a specialist company that invests in strong performing emerging businesses that are capable of international expansion into multiple countries with a long term view of selling the business.
What do we do? invest, build and look to establish in multiple countries around the world.
the target audience are founders of private companies that are well underway in their domestic market and keen to keep on expanding.... retailers, technology are the core.
The brand will be exposed to CEO's, founders, boards, bankers and eventual acquirers of the invested business. The brand sits in the background to any business that is invested in... i.e no one would know if we sat behind McDonald's but the brand does need to be a top shelf business service brand. It is not a consumer brand - this is B2B.
We look for a business that might have say 40 stores but can move to 150 in Australia/New Zealand then look to have 200 in USA, China etc etc. It is a 3-5 year journey.
Businesses may apply through the website to be considered but we are focused on working closely with a few than spreading too thin.
The logo will be used primarily for:
- website
- brochures and reports
- corporate stationary
- business cards
- powerpoint
We want a logo that:
- Really impressive to a corporate/business market
- Conveys professional, dynamic, energic make stuff happen type of business (our key people are 30-40 not 55+)
There needs to be a logo/artwork and very open to lower case use this time.. want an energy brand not tired old private equity or services brand.
Open to how thedeparturegate words are combined but give consideration to how a stacked/shorter version of logo might look given need to use in multiple formats and easy to read.
Now leaning towards non DG options for logo mark...
Style of website might be like clean http://www.woolworths.com.au with explanation panel and some boxes. There also may be a simple strapline introduced at some point near logo like international business builder or building global businesses or driving business value but not fixed right now.
Looking forward to some free thinking options to choose from....

It's one way to make Lightning look less ridiculous.
Dat pic makes lighting have a derp face. How Dare YOU! Shame.
How many people here finished XIII-2?
In this title, one day is 24 hours. In Final Fantasy XIII it was 26 hours, but when time stopped 2 hours were lost.
Screw game making! I should get into writing. All I'll need is a thesaurus, a link to Wikipedia, and literally nothing better to do. In fact I could probably write up a female lead right now....
I sat through an LP and a half, and that half LP was awful for reasons beyond the actual game (mostly due to the LPers being so burnt out on spending two years LP FFXIII-1 that they spent about 6 episodes putting around New Buttom 003AF trying to get over the fact that they weren't getting railroaded as hard as before).
Quote from: Aeolus on December 26, 2012, 05:15:42 AMI sat through an LP and a half, and that half LP was awful for reasons beyond the actual game (mostly due to the LPers being so burnt out on spending two years LP FFXIII-1 that they spent about 6 episodes putting around New Buttom 003AF trying to get over the fact that they weren't getting railroaded as hard as before).Because we all know that experiencing an RPG through an LP is the best way to form an opinon about a gameAnd I don't to sound like a asshole here but if you don't care about the game enough to play it then why bother to rant about it? Is a waste of time, and is not like people who enjoy XIII and its sequels don't know about the overblown criticism these games have with people talking about it everyday for 3 or 4 years already.
But beside the point, the reason why I watch LPs in the first place is because I either don't have the time or the opportunity to play these games myself. In the case of XIIIs 1 & 2 I don't own either PS360 and without going out and burning $300+[the cost of the game]+DLC dollars just to play a mediocre JRPG and a tech demo of said JRPG, LPs are the only other legal way to see what the games offer.
As for my ranting, why does the internet exist for if not to sperg and rant? Yes I rag on the FFXIII games a bit much, but what else am I supposed to do with my communication skills in regards to video gaming? Hope I just happen to know somebody who actually plays video games and isn't some kind of antisocial sperglord that only ever wants to talk about the stuff he plays while never letting the conversation last long enough to let you get in a word edgewise? Besides, I most rant for cathartic reasons, just like anybody else would.
Also that edit I made earlier wasn't just aimed at FFXIIIs 1 & 2 but also crappy fiction like Twilight and 50 Shades of Grey which are turning into multimillion dollar franchises that make me feel like I wasted my time on trying to make video games or having a meaningful career and should've become a sell out novelist who can turn dreck into dosh with a wave of his magic pen instead. (The current state of the video game industry has also played a part in my current disgust with it "Video gaming! Its not for women or any civilized/productive individual for that matter." (I may have watched the most recent VGA recently).)
Edit: Also this.
I was not judging you for watching LPs nor I asked for a reason of why you do it.
I was just mentioning the fixation that people have on complaining about XIII and its sequels. There are very good reasons for this negativity to be a thing, but after all this years this same negativity has been exaggerated IMO.

Right at this very minute, a team of the scientist's biggest fans are hard at work building the country's first ever museum of all things Tesla. What we're most excited about? The whole thing is happening right in our backyard. The Tesla Science Center at Wardenclyffe is slated to open within the next few years in Shoreham, New York, the original site of one of Tesla's beloved laboratories. For years, Americans have honored Edison as the creator of the light bulb the motion picture camera and the phonograph, while Tesla loyalists quietly bemoaned the lack of any homage to the late genius. Early in his career, Tesla even spent time working for Edison, serving as the developer behind many of the products that would eventually be attributed only to his boss. It wasn't long before Tesla struck out on his own. (Who could blame him?)
The Tesla Science Center at Wardenclyffe is at the center of that struggle to recognize his contributions, working tirelessly to create a place for people to learn about Tesla's inventions. "Nikola Tesla is one of the world's great inventors," says Jane Alcorn, the soon-to-be-museum's president. "He was a person who, for many years, was relatively unknown, but whose work and contributions to humanity are finally being recognized."
Over his decades of work, Tesla was the real-life approximation of what you'd call a mad scientist. He experimented with alternating electric currents, x-rays and wireless devices long before their time, and he gave impressive public performances around New York, wherein he would showcase his discoveries. The city buzzed on everything from the Tesla coil to Jane's favorite of his inventions, the teleautomaton, a groundbreaking item in the form of a remote-control miniature boat. "It embodies so much of Tesla's genius: radio, remote control, computer logic, and that special showman's magic," she says. "He surprised those who saw his demonstration at Madison Square Garden, and they didn't understand what they were seeing!"
Over a century later – technology may have caught up with Tesla, but our recognition of his genius? Well, we still weren't quite there yet. It wasn't until Matthew Inman, known more commonly by his comic name, the Oatmeal, started a massive campaign on his website that the movement really grew some legs — and raised some serious cash. Starting on August 15, 2012, he began raising money to buy back Tesla's abandoned laboratory on Long Island and turn it into a museum. By May 22, 2013, the project's Indiegogo campaign, bluntly titled "Let's Build a Goddamn Tesla Museum" had exceeded its initial goal, topping out at $1,370,461. It was high time for America to show old Nik some love.
So what is Wardenclyffe exactly? It's the former home of Tesla's famous Wardenclyffe Tower, a structure he erected to transmit power and communications wirelessly. (Yessir, yer lookin' at WiFi's great-great-grandfather.) It was originally envisioned by wealthy lawyer and banker named James S. Warden, who offered Tesla 200 acres of land as a place to build the massive tower, hoping to eventually add factories where workers could produce large-scale copies of Tesla's inventions.
Though Tesla did move in and begin building the device from 1901 to 1905, the funds eventually went belly-up, the tower was dismantled and sold for parts, and the whole space was closed down by 1922.
Now, thanks to the efforts of Tesla's biggest modern day fans, it's getting back a bit of its former glory. They've already made great advances in cleanup of the grounds, and are making room for a statue – yes, a statue – of Tesla which was dedicated by the president of Serbia last September. But when will the center officially open? "It will definitely take several years to open the doors to the public," Jane says. "The laboratory restoration will take at least two and maybe five or more years to complete. But we hope to be able to host programs on site sooner than that, using some of the other buildings that are being renovated."
If you're as eager as we are to see this come to life, there's other ways to help get things movin' – whether you volunteer your time or choose to make a donation. "Donations can be made via our website link, and no amount is too small," Jane says. "Everything helps. Volunteers can sign up to work on projects at Wardenclyffe via the volunteer spot on our website, too. We welcome good ideas, too, which can be sent to us at firstname.lastname@example.com." Good ideas, after all, are what made a guy like Tesla so great.
In the meantime, Tesla may be gone, but it's fun to imagine what he would be working on were he still around at Wardenclyffe. "Today, Tesla would probably be immersed in the laboratory, continuing his research," Jane says. "But this time with the aid of computers, nanotechnology, specialized materials, and so many other support systems." To envision exactly what he'd build, we'd have to step into the brain of the man himself. For now, we'll keep our imaginations tuned to the grounds at Wardenclyffe.
It's Electric: Why NYC Should Be Amped for the Tesla Museum

President Barack Obama on Thursday vowed a "sustained effort" to crack down on sexual assault in the military, saying that the rash of violence is "dangerous to our national security."
"The reason we are so good is not because of fancy equipment, it's not because of our incredible weapons systems and technology, it's because of our people," he said, according to a pool report. "It comes down to do people trust each other and do they understand that they're all part of a single system that has to operate under whatever circumstances effectively. The issue of sexual assault in our armed forces undermines that trust."
The president's remarks came after a meeting with Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Martin Dempsey and the military service chiefs to address the issue of sexual assault in the armed forces.
Obama said that those military leaders are "ashamed by some of what's happened" and that he has asked Hagel and Dempsey to lead an effort to overhaul the military's system.
Public pressure to change the military's policy has mounted since two military officials charged with preventing such cases have been accused of committing acts of sexual violence.
A bipartisan group of lawmakers on Thursday unveiled a bill that would prevent military commanders from handling sexual assault cases involving their subordinates.

Annie's Homegrown
Last evening, the general membership of the Philolexian Society, Columbia University's student organization dedicated to improving the rhetorical skills and literary awareness of its members, voted to name Bunny Pasta with Yummy Cheese the official macaroni and cheese of the society. We make this designation in recognition of the outstanding contributions to American literature made by the promoters of Annie's Homegrown products. With its "bunny shape pasta and yummy white cheddar" and the "rabbit of approval," Annie's Homegrown macaroni and cheese truly is "Totally Natural, Totally Delicious."
"People are always asking," you say, "why we decided to put a picture of Bernie the Bunny on all our yummy Annie's products." Indeed, you have hit upon a question that has long plagued the truth-seeking membership of our society. The four-paragraph fable that you relate to us quenches our thirst for knowledge with both wit and whimsy, mixing in anthropomorphism, magical realism, suspense, and an Aesop-like moral. It is often said that story-telling is a dying art. It is delightfully obvious that all purveyors of this maxim have not yet come across the fine allegories so artfully placed on every Annie's Homegrown product.
And yet, what good is a tale if no greater good comes from it? We Philolexians, well-versed in the works of every type of literature from the Greek philosophers to the Modernists, are well aware of this conundrum. You argue that "everyone reads bumpers stickers; there's not a lot you can do in traffic." Based on our position as the primary purveyors of the art of the written word at this institution, through our literary journal Surgam, we do not share your faith in the literacy of the average American. As a nation that relies upon Fox News, Fox television, and the tabloids, your unshaken belief in the true nature of America's respect for the art of authorship is highly commended.
I have been charged with the duty of informing you of this distinction, which we hope you will deem an honor. Though the Philolexian Society, established in 1802, is Columbia's oldest student organization, and one of the oldest literary societies in the nation, it has never before seen fit to name an official macaroni and cheese. However, the undeniable kindred spirit between your company and our society, manifest in Annie's Bunny Pasta with Yummy Cheese, drove us to break all precedent in this case. We hope that it will also facilitate friendly contact between us in the future. I thank you for your patience, and wish you a pleasant spring.

Hey guys!
I am visiting next two weeks (McChord AFB in Lakewood). I was wondering how the Tacoma and Lakewood spots are (as per your map). I'm a twin tip guys still. If I bring my 4/3 wet will I be ok? (I do have a 5 but it's a warm one!). Also you guys do wind call somewhere (Facebook?) I'm not big on ridding alone.

Tales of Psychotherapy is a charming book. It's a collection of forty writings, some fictional, some not, on psychotherapy. The concept is unusual. Editor Jane Ryan explains that contributors were asked for short stories that were either fictional or true. To be pedantic, a short story is a piece of fiction. An historical account, or analysis of a professional issue, or an autobiographical piece, is non-fiction, hence my preference for the term "writings". But that is pedantic. There are 28 individual contributions in this book, and it's a real collection of allsorts. You never know what you're in for when you move from one chapter to the next. Perhaps that's what it's like being a psychotherapist. You never know what memory, what trauma, what banal rumination you're going to be paid to listen to. Not that anything in this book is banal. Far from it. There's something in every contribution, and to make it better you get to read a short biography of the author.
The book is thematically organized into sections on different aspects of psychotherapy. There is no particular pattern to this; it includes "boundaries" "coincidence", "healing", "the psychotherapy relationship" "childhood" and "love". It's not always clear if these writings are fictional or not. A psychotherapist might say it's about what it means for you. Fair enough. Reading through the book you get a sense of what it is to be a psychotherapist. I don't know if it's accurate or not, but I developed an image of a modestly and sparsely (but tastefully) furnished room, a few paintings, most likely impressionist, a window with a view, and a few personal objects, telltale evidence that the idealized therapist is a Real Person. I was surprised how many psychotherapists practice at home.
The writings range from moving accounts of damaged lives to playful anecdotes about the vicissitudes of therapy. Mustard Therapy is Alexandra Wilson's delightful tongue-in-cheek poke at psychotherapy. It comes as a relief following David Herbert's rather creepy Stones. There are a few stories involving abuse of children and with these the book takes on a somber tone. Barbara Hillman's Jigsaw is a moving recollection of childhood exploitation told in a straightforward and unsentimental way. Jigsaw will make you grateful you're not a psychotherapist, and grateful that other people are.
Ghosting through these writings is the specter of Sigmund Freud. Occasionally he appears on stage. I loved Maggie Murray's The case of Anna F. even if I couldn't decide whether she was right in all her interpretations. The idea of Anna Freud visiting Broadmoor has some appeal. I still don't know what to make of Ella Lindauer's Fragments, but there must be people whose families lived in Vienna at the same time as the Freuds. The first contribution is an interesting, but inconclusive anecdote about how Freud turned down various offers to advise on court trials and films in the United States. Interesting, but I liked Freud more with a bit of artistic license.
This is a book that would appeal to anyone with at least a passing interest in the psychotherapies. I'm sure practitioners could find much to debate about the approaches taken, interpretations made, the meaning of different revelations and emotions. Some of the contributions have genuine literary merit; others are a little labored, but the case studies are especially interesting. Tales of Psychotherapy would make a nice distraction for your daily commute or an enjoyable fireside read. I'd even take it to the beach. If you see it on the coffee table on your next visit to your therapist, pick it up. You might read something you need to talk about.

Ballotpedia: No proof fracking sinks home prices
Residents who live near fracking operations might worry about the impact to their property values, but so far the data doesn't back up that concern, according to a study released Tuesday by Ballotpedia.
The online encyclopedia collected data from tax assessors for seven Colorado counties (Garfield, Grand, La Plata, Larimer, Pitkin, Routt and Weld), then compared home values to well-site data from the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission and residential water sources from the Colorado Department of Natural Resources.
"This large research project found no definitive evidence that fracking negatively impacted home values and sales across seven counties in 2015," said Kayla Harris, Ballotpedia's energy policy analyst.
Impact on property values is among the reasons fracking opponents have proposed ballot initiatives for November to restrict where oil and gas wells locate.

The management and distribution of the estate of a decedent performed under the supervision of the surrogate's or probate court by a person duly qualified and legally appointed. If the decedent made a valid will designating someone called an executor to handle this function, the court will issue that person letters testamentary as authority to do so. If a person dies intestate or did not name an executor in his or her will, the court will appoint an administrator and grant him or her Letters of Administration to perform the duties of administration.
An executor or administrator must carry out the responsibilities of administration, including collection and preservation of the decedent's assets; payment of debts and claims against the estate; payment of estate tax; and distribution of the balance of the estate to the decedent's heirs.

The Arabic numeral system
|Arabic index
|History Topics Index
The Indian numerals discussed in our article Indian numerals form the basis of the European number systems which are now widely used. However they were not transmitted directly from India to Europe but rather came first to the Arabic/Islamic peoples and from them to Europe. The story of this transmission is not, however, a simple one. The eastern and western parts of the Arabic world both saw separate developments of Indian numerals with relatively little interaction between the two. By the western part of the Arabic world we mean the regions comprising mainly North Africa and Spain. Transmission to Europe came through this western Arabic route, coming into Europe first through Spain.
There are other complications in the story, however, for it was not simply that the Arabs took over the Indian number system. Rather different number systems were used simultaneously in the Arabic world over a long period of time. For example there were at least three different types of arithmetic used in Arab countries in the eleventh century: a system derived from counting on the fingers with the numerals written entirely in words, this finger-reckoning arithmetic was the system used for by the business community; the sexagesimal system with numerals denoted by letters of the Arabic alphabet; and the arithmetic of the Indian numerals and fractions with the decimal place-value system.
The first sign that the Indian numerals were moving west comes from a source which predates the rise of the Arab nations. In 662 AD Severus Sebokht, a Nestorian bishop who lived in Keneshra on the Euphrates river, wrote:-
I will omit all discussion of the science of the Indians, ... , of their subtle discoveries in astronomy, discoveries that are more ingenious than those of the Greeks and the Babylonians, and of their valuable methods of calculation which surpass description. I wish only to say that this computation is done by means of nine signs. If those who believe, because they speak Greek, that they have arrived at the limits of science, would read the Indian texts, they would be convinced, even if a little late in the day, that there are others who know something of value.This passage clearly indicates that knowledge of the Indian number system was known in lands soon to become part of the Arab world as early as the seventh century. The passage itself, of course, would certainly suggest that few people in that part of the world knew anything of the system. Severus Sebokht as a Christian bishop would have been interested in calculating the date of Easter (a problem to Christian churches for many hundreds of years). This may have encouraged him to find out about the astronomy works of the Indians and in these, of course, he would find the arithmetic of the nine symbols.
By 776 AD the Arab empire was beginning to take shape and we have another reference to the transmission of Indian numerals. We quote from a work of al-Qifti Chronology of the scholars written around the end the 12th century but quoting much earlier sources:-
... a person from India presented himself before the Caliph al-Mansur in the year [776 AD] who was well versed in the siddhanta method of calculation related to the movment of the heavenly bodies, and having ways of calculating equations based on the half-chord [essentially the sine] calculated in half-degrees ... This is all contained in a work ... from which he claimed to have taken the half-chord calculated for one minute. Al-Mansur ordered this book to be translated into Arabic, and a work to be written, based on the translation, to give the Arabs a solid base for calculating the movements of the planets ...Now in [1] (where a longer quote is given) Ifrah tries to determine which Indian work is referred to. He concludes that the work was most likely to have been Brahmagupta's Brahmasphutasiddhanta (The Opening of the Universe) which was written in 628. Irrespective of whether Ifrah is right, since all Indian texts after Aryabhata I's Aryabhatiya used the Indian number system of the nine signs, certainly from this time the Arabs had a translation into Arabic of a text written in the Indian number system.
It is often claimed that the first Arabic text written to explain the Indian number system was written by al-Khwarizmi. However there are difficulties here which many authors tend to ignore. The Arabic text is lost but a twelfth century Latin translation, Algoritmi de numero Indorum Ⓣ gave rise to the word algorithm deriving from his name in the title. Unfortunately the Latin translation is known to be much changed from al-Khwarizmi's original text (of which even the title is unknown). The Latin text certainly describes the Indian place-value system of numerals based on 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 0. The first use of zero as a place holder in positional base notation is considered by some to be due to al-Khwarizmi in this work. The difficulty which arises is that al-Baghdadi refers to the Arabic original which, contrary to what was originally thought, seems not to be a work on Indian numerals but rather a work on finger counting methods. This becomes clear from the references by al-Baghdadi to the lost work. However the numerous references to al-Khwarizmi's book on the Indian nine symbols must mean that he did write such a work. Some degree of mystery still remains.
At first the Indian methods were used by the Arabs with a dust board. In fact in the western part of the Arabic world the Indian numerals came to be known as Guba (or Gubar or Ghubar) numerals from the Arabic word meaning "dust". A dust board was used because the arithmetical methods required the moving of numbers around in the calculation and rubbing some out some of them as the calculation proceeded. The dust board allowed this in the same sort of way that one can use a blackboard, chalk and a blackboard eraser. Any student who has attended lectures where the lecturer continually changes and replaces parts of the mathematics as the demonstration progresses will understand the disadvantage of the dust board!
Around the middle of the tenth century al-Uqlidisi wrote Kitab al-fusul fi al-hisab al-Hindi Ⓣ which is the earliest surviving book that presents the Indian system. In it al-Uqlidisi argues that the system is of practical value:-
Most arithmeticians are obliged to use it in their work: since it is easy and immediate, requires little memorisation, provides quick answers, demands little thought ... Therefore, we say that it is a science and practice that requires a tool, such as a writer, an artisan, a knight needs to conduct their affairs; since if the artisan has difficulty in finding what he needs for his trade, he will never succeed; to grasp it there is no difficulty, impossibility or preparation.In the fourth part of this book al-Uqlidisi showed how to modify the methods of calculating with Indian symbols, which had required a dust board, to methods which could be carried out with pen and paper. Certainly the fact that the Indian system required a dust board had been one of the main obstacles to its acceptance. For example As-Suli, after praising the Indian system for its great simplicity, wrote in the first half of the tenth century:-
Official scribes nevertheless avoid using [the Indian system] because it requires equipment [like a dust board] and they consider that a system that requires nothing but the members of the body is more secure and more fitting to the dignity of a leader.Al-Uqlidisi's work is therefore important in attempting to remove one of the obstacles to acceptance of the Indian nine symbols. It is also historically important as it is the earliest known text offering a direct treatment of decimal fractions.
Despite many scholars finding calculating with Indian symbols helpful in their work, the business community continued to use their finger arithmetic throughout the tenth century. Abu'l-Wafa, who was himself an expert in the use of Indian numerals, nevertheless wrote a text on how to use finger-reckoning arithmetic since this was the system used by the business community and teaching material aimed at these people had to be written using the appropriate system. Let us give a little information about the Arab letter numerals which are contained in Abu'l-Wafa's work.
The numbers were represented by letters but not in the dictionary order. The system was known as huruf al jumal which meant "letters for calculating" and also sometimes as abjad which is just the first four numbers (1 = a, 2 = b, j = 3, d = 4). The numbers from 1 to 9 were represented by letters, then the numbers 10, 20, 30, ..., 90 by the next nine letters (10 = y, 20 = k, 30 = l, 40 = m, ...), then 100, 200, 300, ... , 900 by the next letters (100 = q, 200 = r, 300 = sh, 400 = ta, ...). There were 28 Arabic letters and so one was left over which was used to represent 1000.
Arabic astronomers used a base 60 version of Arabic letter system. Although Arabic is written from right to left, we shall give an example writing in the left to right style that we use in writing English. A number, say 43° 21' 14", would have been written as "mj ka yd" in this base 60 version of the "abjad" letters for calculating.
A contemporary of al-Baghdadi, writing near the beginning of the eleventh century, was ibn Sina (better known in the West as Avicenna). We know many details of his life for he wrote an autobiography. Certainly ibn Sina was a remarkable child, with a memory and an ability to learn which amazed the scholars who met in his father's home. A group of scholars from Egypt came to his father's house in about 997 when ibn Sina was ten years old and they taught him Indian arithmetic. He also tells of being taught Indian calculation and algebra by a seller of vegetables. All this shows that by the beginning of the eleventh century calculation with the Indian symbols was fairly widespread and, quite significantly, was know to a vegetable trader.
What of the numerals themselves. We have seen in the article Indian numerals that the form of the numerals themselves varied in different regions and changed over time. Exactly the same happened in the Arabic world.
Here is an example of an early form of Indian numerals being used in the eastern part of the Arabic empire. It comes from a work of al-Sijzi, not an original work by him but rather the work of another mathematician which al-Sijzi copied at Shiraz and dated his copy 969.
The numerals from al-Sizji's treatise of 969
The numerals had changed their form somewhat 100 years later when this copy of one of al-Biruni's astronomical texts was made. Here are the numerals as they appear in a 1082 copy.
The numerals from al-Biruni's treatise copied in 1082
In fact a closer look will show that between 969 and 1082 the biggest change in the numerals was the fact that the 2 and the 3 have been rotated through 90°. There is a reason for this change which came about due to the way that scribes wrote, for they wrote on a scroll which they wound from right to left across their bodies as they sat cross-legged. The scribes therefore, instead of writing from right to left (the standard way that Arabic was written) wrote in lines from top to bottom. The script was rotated when the scroll was read and the characters when then in the correct orientation.
Here is an example of how the text was written
Perhaps because scribes did not have much experience at writing Indian numerals, they wrote 2 and 3 the correct way round instead of writing them rotated by 90° so that they would appear correctly when the scroll was rotated to be read.
Here is an example of what the scribe should write
and here is what the scribe actually wrote
The form of the numerals in the west of the Arabic empire look more familiar to those using European numerals today which is not surprising since it is from these numerals that the Indian number system reach Europe.

He gave this form of the numerals in his practical arithmetic book written around the beginning of the fourteenth century. He lived most of his life in Morocco which was in close contact with al-Andalus, or Andalusia, which was the Arab controlled region in the south of Spain.
The first surviving example of the Indian numerals in a document in Europe was, however, long before the time of al-Banna. The numerals appear in the Codex Vigilanus copied by a monk in Spain in 976. However the main part of Europe was not ready at this time to accept new ideas of any kind. Acceptance was slow, even as late as the fifteenth century when European mathematics began its rapid development which continues today. We will not examine the many contributions to bringing the Indian number system to Europe in this article but we will end with just one example which, however, is a very important one. Fibonacci writes in his famous book Liber abaci Ⓣ published in Pisa in 1202:-
When my father, who had been appointed by his country as public notary in the customs at Bugia acting for the Pisan merchants going there, was in charge, he summoned me to him while I was still a child, and having an eye to usefulness and future convenience, desired me to stay there and receive instruction in the school of accounting. There, when I had been introduced to the art of the Indians' nine symbols through remarkable teaching, knowledge of the art very soon pleased me above all else and I came to understand it, for whatever was studied by the art in Egypt, Syria, Greece, Sicily and Provence, in all its various forms.

juliet brauchte ein neues Logo Design und hat einen Wettbewerb auf 99designs gestartet.
Aus 65 Designs von 23 Designern wurde eine Gewinner gewählt.
I need a logo for my blog. I want it to capture the essence of the what the blog is about, including the personality of me, the blogger.
I want a logo design. I do not just want it to be the words "Yummy Diet Food." I'd like it to be cute and whimsical, but not overly feminine. It needs to fit with the color scheme I have today (yes, very pink), but also work in the future if I go with something more gender neutral.
The blog itself is about smarter food choices for people on the weight watchers food diet, or people who want to buy better packaged foods. I don't go crazy advertising that this is what the site is, since I don't want to turn people off who think "healthy" means "not yummy". If you look in the "about" section, you'll see that there are ingredients that I avoid when looking for foods to post about.
The logo should be cute, yummy, and fun, but if it can relay some sense of seriousness that would be okay too.
UPDATED DETAILS: Just to explain...The blog has a unique theme. See, there are all sorts of crappy foods marketed to dieters today. My blog is about some of the smarter, better, choices out there (foods that do not contain the bad ingredients that most diet foods have today) without going all the way to fruits and vegetables. So it is about smart choices in addition to being about diet food (which is really broad). I'd like to be able to get that across somehow.
- Must fit with current color scheme- Must fit with a non-pink, more gender neutral color scheme eventually- Must be cute without being overly cute- Must capture the personality of the blog, "friendly" "approachable" "interesting" "worth reading"
- I do not want "Yummy Diet Food" as words as the logo, unless you design a background to go with it, that will work with my current blog colors, etc.

Alex Zanardi has become one of the biggest inspirational figures in the racing world.
After a devastating accident during a CART race in 2001 left him a double amputee, Zinardi found another way to race.
Earlier this summer, Zanardi gained worldwide notoriety for winning two gold medals in the London Paralympics.
In this video from CNN, Zanardi talks about how he is lucky to be alive after his auto racing career, and how he is approaching his new style of racing. He even talks about his interest in possibly getting back behind the wheel of a race car. Although, for now, he's happy to have found a new love in hand cycle racing.

New Products - July/August 2004
Samsung Feeling like you've come late to the iPod party? You can still be first on the block to own Samsung's portable digital music player, the YH-920. Loaded with Napster 2.0 software, the player is compatible with MP3, WMA, and Ogg Vorbis - an open-source compressed-audio format that's said to be higher quality than MP3. Songs are imported through the USB 2.0 port to the player's hard disk, which has 20 gigabytes of storage space. Going beyond just playback, you can make voice recordings on the fly through the built-in microphone and even record from the onboard FM tuner. A full charge of the lithium-ion battery is said to provide 13 hours of continuous playback. Price: $350. www.samsungusa.com, 800-726-7864 Yamaha The original Yamaha MusicCAST system (click to read the original review from September 2003) streamed music from a digital server to as many as eight "clients" - freestanding mini music systems (with optional matching speakers). The new in-wall MCX-C15 client (left) doesn't even need floor space, because it fits in a standard dual-gang electrical box. It communicates with the MusicCAST server over Cat-5 cable or wirelessly via 802.11b/g Wi-Fi (you'll need an Ethernet/Wi-Fi bridge). You select your music with the four customizable buttons, browsing tracks on the display by artist, album, genre, or playlist. Digital audio streams from the server to the MCX-C15 and then to an in-wall I/O box (right), which has preamp audio outputs and an auxiliary minijack input, or to an in-wall 17 W x 2 power amp (not shown) - both are included. All you need to do then is hook up a pair of in-wall speakers, and you're in business. Price: $650. www.yamaha.com/yec, 800-492-6242

MEDIA CONTACT: Mark E. Brady, Chief Spokesperson, 240-508-7930
firstname.lastname@example.com @PGFDPIO
December 1, is our Safety First Day of the Month and one of our Community Risk Reduction programs. This day is primarily designated as a reminder to test your smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) alarms to ensure they emit that life saving alert. Simply press to test button on the front of the alarm.
Of course everyone's alarm is going to work because we just provided fresh batteries in your alarms in November, remember, Change Your Clock - Change Your Battery???
If you hear the audible warning – you are good for another month.
No audible warning?? – provide a fresh battery in your alarms and re-test.
Audible warning?? Yes – you are good until next month!!! No tones – remove the alarm and replace it with a new 10-year alarm.
While you're tending to your alarms – remove any dust or other particles from your alarm by dusting or using a vacuum. Remember these alarms could be the difference between life and death of you and your family.
Neighbors Helping Neighbors - Keep in mind that some of our neighbors may not physically be able to reach their alarms to test or change batteries. If you have senior citizens family members or neighbors, please, perform this lifesaving function for them. They may not ask for help but they certainly could use some.
Anyone that can not afford to purchase their own 10-year smoke alarm or batteries to rejuvenate your 9-volt alarms may call 311 and make arrangements for a firefighter to visit your home and install these life saving items for you.
Remember that it is now a law for homes that have gas service, fireplace and/or an attached garage are required to have CO alarms.
The Fire/EMS Department strongly endorses the use of 10-year, tamper proof with hush feature smoke and CO alarms on every level of your home, outside of sleeping areas and in every bedroom.
December Safety Tips
Be ever mindful of cooking and remaining in the kitchen if using the stovetop or broiler. Unattended cooking is the leading cause of fires and fire related injuries.
Candles should be used with extreme caution. Keep them away from items that can burn and never leave them burning in a room unattended.
Inspect cords and bulbs on electrical holiday decorations. If cords are frayed or have wires showing, discard them and purchase new ones. No good reason to try to get "just one more year" out of damaged decorations when you consider the consequence of a home fire.
Live Christmas tree??? Pick one that is fresh and where needles do not fall off in your hand. Cut about ¼ to ½ inch from the bottom of your tree and immerse in an appropriate sized tree stand filled with water and remember to fill the basin up everyday – sometimes even twice a day.
Give space heaters space (at least 3 feet away from anything that can burn). Turn off space heaters before you go to sleep,
Clear clutter from around your furnace and water heater.
Remember to unplug all decorations at night.
Never overload extension cords or power strips. Electrical cords can overheat and ignite a fire.
Additional detailed information will be posted as we move through the Holiday Season.

Czech artist David Cerny has managed to make an object that, when you look at it, immediately conveys the concepts of "London" and "athletics." Which is handy, since he made it for the London Olympics. The sculpture, a full-sized '57 Austin Roadmaster double-decker bus outfitted with huge red arms, is currently outside the Czech Olympic HQ in Islington, London.
The bus is fully mechanized, and the hydraulic arms, all glistening and muscular, lift the 6.5 ton bus in a tireless series of push ups.
Cerny actually has some previous bus-related experience, creating a delightful bus stop in the Czech Republic.
The artist says he's playing on the idea of push-ups as both a very common exercise and punishment, and the action is accompanied by an audio track of the bus grunting and straining. It's possible it may make you aroused as well. That's your business.
Even though he comes off as a bit of a dick when he says of the sculpture "It's actually meant for all fat Americans, they could sort of exercise to get skinnier," I suspect that's just the artist trying to get a rise out of folks, something he's had some experience with.
I think it's a brillant, fun piece and I'd love to be able to see it. Maybe with some slight modifications it could swim the Atlantic, then laboriously crawl across the US for a goodwill tour. He said he made it for us, after all.
(Thanks, Mikeado!)

Demographics are important to physicians.
Demographics help guide us toward more-likely and less-likely diagnoses in patients.In their most basic form, they mean we are surprised when we learn that the 90-year-old woman with hand pain suffered the injury while boxing. On the other hand, demographics are why a doctor tells the overweight man with a history of hypertension that he is "a heart attack waiting to happen."Most disease processes can be characterized by a typical patient and are based on age, gender and sometimes ethnicity or socio-economic class.
This has long been the case with oral-cancer cases. Most physicians have an idea of a typical oral-cancer patient. We envision an older, male patient with few teeth following a lifetime of poor oral health. They generally have lower income and are lifelong smokers.
That's why the tonsillar-cancer patient was such a surprise to me. He was 34, upper-middle class and did not smoke or drink. He had recently undergone surgery to remove his tonsils and a good portion of the back of his throat.
He had come into the emergency department that day because he was having difficulty breathing and swallowing. When I walked into the room, he was sitting on a gurney and drooling into a garbage can that he kept between his knees. The skin around his neck looked swollen and tight, leaving me to imagine how much swelling there was in the back of his throat.His surgery had been six days earlier, and he had been doing well at home until that day.
The possibilities ran through my head. Was it an infection in the soft tissue of his neck? Was it an abscess? Or was it normal post-operative changes, including inflammation? Swelling in that area heightens our level of concern for having to secure an airway. Surgically creating an airway always is a consideration.Fortunately, my patient was able to lie flat without feeling that his airway was closing.
A CT scan of his head and neck showed narrowing around his airway, but no discrete area of pus to drain. The soft-tissue swelling around the neck looked bad, but he felt comfortable as long as he sat up. We treated him with steroids and antibiotics and gave him aerosolized adrenaline to constrict the blood vessels of the airway and decrease the swelling. Within an hour, he looked much better. This patient spurred my interest. Was he a fluke?Here was a young, otherwise healthy man without risk factors for oral cancer, yet he had developed such a horrible disease. He didn't fit any of the demographics I knew for a patient with a head and neck cancer.
The answer is that my patient is the new face of head and neck cancer. Human papillomavirus, or HPV — the same virus linked to cervical cancer in women — is being linked to oral cancers in men.Typically, 10 percent to 15 percent of the population is infected with HPV, and the incidence increases if a sexual partner is infected or the patient is HIV-positive.
HPV causes cancer in humans, monkeys, cats, dogs, cattle, mice, turtles and many other species. The literature is replete with example after example.
The incidence of HPV in humans has increased significantly. Since the 1970s, there has been roughly a threefold increase in incidence of HPV associated with tonsillar cancers.
There really is no cure for HPV once a patient is infected. We can generally live with the virus, but we are stuck with the bug and the increased risk of cancer. This is why there is such a push to prevent the infection; doing so essentially gets as close as we can to preventing cancer. There is a vaccine for the most-common causative strains of HPV associated with cervical cancer. Preventing tonsillar and oral cancers might be the next step.
Remembering my patient, I can't help but wonder if we couldn't have prevented some of this. More funding for research? More preventive measures? Better patient education? Yes, yes and yes.

Although the state's Department of Finance is expecting a strong fiscal finish to 2011, California may enact trigger cuts to healthcare and education.
"So in December, the Department of Finance, which is a part of the governor's shop, will look at the state's numbers to determine whether they have to pull the trigger …," said California State Controller John Chiang.
"If we are about a $1 billion-plus short, we'll look at cuts to UC, Cal State and some healthcare programs." Chiang said. "If we are in excesses of $2 billion short of where the revenue estimates were originally projected to be, we're going to look at massive hits to K-12 education."
U.S. & World
The cuts will be "subject to determination" by the Department of Finance, Chiang said. Underlining conditions, past revenues and fiscal projections will be considered, said the controller.
"The back half of this fiscal year is supposed to be stronger, but if we see more tumult as we witnessed with the stock market this week, that could raise greater concerns for the back half of this year," he said.
