Sponsor Says Breached Agreement, Not Rick Hawn's Performance, Prompted Stop Payment
HTFU founder Mark Gingrich found himself in a difficult spot this past Tuesday.
Gingrich, who launched his lifestyle apparel brand in 2009, recently told Sherdog.com that he received a multitude of verbal and physical threats after news broke on Tuesday that he had put a stop payment on a sponsorship check issued to Rick Hawn for his appearance at Bellator 85.
Hawn, who challenged Michael Chandler for Bellator's lightweight strap in the Jan. 17 main event on Spike TV, announced the development via Twitter on Monday night, though he did not specifically name HTFU in his post. Nevertheless, Gingrich says that his office and website were bombarded the following day by phone calls and emails.
"I've been threatened. My girlfriend has been threatened. People who work for the company have been threatened. [Some were] death threats. I lost an employee because of this. I have never seen anything like this in my entire life," Gingrich recently told Sherdog.com "I would have happily paid $10,000 for that not to have happened -- for my girlfriend and for my employees to not have had to go through that. At the end of the day, I'm pretty disgusted at how [those individuals in the] MMA community conducted themselves."
According to Gingrich, Hawn representative Mike Russell called him five days prior to Bellator 85 and expressed that Hawn was having difficulty picking up interest in a sponsorship for his headlining bout at the UCI Bren Center in Irvine, Calif. Gingrich, a 38-year-old former triathlete, said he considered sponsoring the 36-year-old Hawn in part because of their similar ages and Hawn's desire to win a world title as an older competitor.
"[Russell] said Rick knew the brand and had bought a pair of shorts for his girlfriend, and it was Rick's idea to maybe shop outside the MMA community and not [with] the Dethrone [Royalty] or the Headrush -- somebody a little different," said Gingrich. "I told him that I wasn't really interested in a big sponsorship. He said he'd be willing to work anything out."
After negotiating, the parties came to terms. According to Gingrich, he offered Hawn a $1,500 payday and $2,000 worth of product to become a sponsored HTFU athlete, ideally beyond just the single appearance at Bellator 85. In exchange, Gingrich said Hawn and his cornermen agreed to wear HTFU hats and shirts during the event, and the brand would receive its first television exposure via the Spike TV broadcast. No written contract was drawn up, Gingrich said, because of the short-notice nature of the agreement and his willingness to take Hawn and his camp at their word.
"I said, 'Does that sound OK?' Everybody said yes. I went straight to my press and designed a shirt for Rick. I stopped my press and printed the shirt and then talked to Rick a few times about sizing," said the Dallas-based Gingrich. "I sent Rick every [type of] hat I had and [nearly] every [type of] shirt I've ever made. I was trying to hook him up with anything I could find, and I've never done that for anybody. I was finally at a stage in my life with the company that I could really take care of somebody. I stopped everything I was doing and flew to California with my girlfriend to be there and support Rick. I was there for the weigh-in and talked to all the corners and gave them all shirts and hats."
The next day, Gingrich and his girlfriend attended the event. Twice during the Spike broadcast, the crew cut to Hawn warming up backstage. The fighter was wearing a Bellator hoodie and no HTFU gear, a fact that Gingrich said caught him by surprise.
"It was our arrangement that Rick would be wearing product at all times, for any post-fight or pre-fight interview, [whether he was] on TV or off TV," said Gingrich. "I was extremely disappointed before he came out. I told my girlfriend, 'That's not cool. I hope they come out in the gear. I hope I didn't get duped.'"
When Hawn did make his walk to the cage for the main event, he was wearing both the HTFU shirt and hat. However, the same could not be said for his cornermen.
"When the lights went down, I ran over and saw Rick walk out, and then I saw his corners. One of his corners was wearing all red and wasn't wearing the shirt, and none of the corners had the hat on," said Gingrich. "I was pretty disappointed at that point and just went back to my seat. I cheered Rick on and tried to put it behind me."
After Hawn submitted to a second-round rear-naked choke, Gingrich said he left the arena and typed an email to Russell the following day, the penultimate graph of which was posted by Hawn Monday night on Twitter. Gingrich recently forwarded that email to Sherdog.com, now reprinted in its entirety:
"Mike, can you tell me why one of his corners wasn't wearing a shirt and why none of his corners were wearing the hat?
"This was part of the agreement which Rick and his camp did not fulfill. With regards to everything I have done: I sent Rick a couple thousand dollars worth of clothes (FedEx overnight cost $200). I bought [a] ticket out to support his fight [and paid for] hotels, rental cars. I made a shirt which cost me almost $1000 to make. I had to shut down a printer to do it and take away resources to fulfill the order.
"I arrived in Irvine on Wednesday to his camp. [I] shook Rick's hand, and that was about it for a relationship. Rick and his camp advised me to meet up with him later after the weigh-in. I waited for a couple hours with my girlfriend, rearranged plans and never saw Rick come down to say hello. I had to find him eating in another room with his friends. In fact, his girlfriend was more accommodating and sincere than Rick.
"I will not comment on Rick and his fight. That is not my place. But what I will tell you is this: I took a huge chance with him. TV exposure was great…but it only holds weight if he wins or puts on a good show. Neither happened. At the end of the day…not one sole (sic) will run to the HTFU store and buy product because they saw Rick walk out in my shirt and loose (sic) the fight. I've made it my career and business to know what nets a return on investment for the brand…and this is the No. 1 reason why I DO NOT hand out money or product to fighters.
"With regards to the check I sent Rick: At this point, a stop payment has been placed on [the] check which cannot be cashed or deposited now."
When asked why he chose the words that Hawn ultimately reposted on Twitter, Gingrich admitted that he "probably did a poor job of communicating" his point, which was that he believed Hawn did not live up to his end of the bargain in regard to what product would be worn, who would wear it and when it would be worn. Gingrich also said that had Hawn won, he would have still sent an email to Russell expressing his dissatisfaction with what he felt was an unfulfilled obligation on the part of the fighter.
"The only reason I addressed the fight or TV at all is because I was expecting them to respond with something about the exposure we received with Rick wearing the shirt and hat on Spike TV. It was a poor choice on my part to point out that TV exposure alone is not enough if the fighter performs poorly," said Gingrich. "At the end of the day, I didn't yank the check because he lost the fight or had a bad fight or anything related to his character. I yanked the check because it was the only thing I could do at that point, because they breached the contract. I couldn't get my money back on the shirt I created. I couldn't get my ticket back. I couldn't get anything back that I put into Rick except the check."
In response to his email, Gingrich said he received a notice of potential legal action from another of Hawn's representatives, Robert Stein. Gingrich said he then texted Russell, but Russell did not want to talk, instead insisting that Gingrich render his payment to Hawn immediately.
"I didn't have a say, and there was no [explanation]. There was no [mention] that his head coach (Firas Zahabi) has a Headrush sponsorship that [they] didn't tell [me] about, and [Zahabi's] obligations are to that company," said Gingrich. "Those were things that weren't talked about in the beginning, but Rick and Mike made me feel like the corners were fine with all this.
Gingrich said that had Russell offered an explanation for why all the corners were not wearing all of the gear, he would have reversed the stop payment and parted ways with the Hawn camp.
"HTFU does over $1 million a year. I would have happily given Rick $1,500. It's not a big deal. The principle was the deal." said Gingrich. "I feel that as a business owner, I have an obligation to the company to hold people accountable for what they do. When I say I'm going to do something, I do it, and when people say they're going to do something, I hold them them to it. This isn't some elaborate hoax that I conjured up in my head. I felt kind of betrayed a little bit."
Gingrich said that in addition to receiving the stream of threats, he also spoke to several members of the media on Tuesday. Most expressed their condolences about the threats, Gingrich said, but stated they were unsure about running a story detailing the matter.
"You know something? These assh---s on these forums and these jackasses who threatened me and left me these messages, they don't know the full story, and they don't care. And the reporters don't care either. All they care about is the fighter, and I understand that. The fighter is the underdog in the situation, and I'm some big company trying to take advantage of the middle man," said Gingrich. "What no one understands is that I've built HTFU from the ground up, from nothing. For three years, I've struggled and lost things. This isn't a corporate entity. It's not Hayabusa where you have corporate structure and marketing dollars already set aside. I [run] on a case-by-case basis and maintain personal relationships with everybody involved."
One journalist, Gingrich said, even advised him to pay the money in the interest of putting the situation behind him.
"At the end of [Tuesday], I just reissued the check. Honestly, I was just so sick and tired of the phone calls. There is only so much that someone can take," said Gingrich. "I'm not a mean guy, and I'm not a guy who purposely tries to hurt people, especially athletes, because I spent seven years of my life trying to become a professional athlete with no income."
After informing Russell that he had reissued the check, Gingrich said that Russell told him that Hawn would not accept it unless Gingrich publicly apologized for "the uneducated and scathing comments made about [Hawn's] performance and for [the] attempt at exploiting [Hawn's] name and character."
"I never did anything publicly to Rick," said Gingrich, who refused to apologize. "I never exploited him or his character, nor did I make any public comments about Rick and his fight. I sent Mike a personal email asking what the guys were doing not wearing all the clothes and [telling him] that Rick's fight was not going to net a big return on investment for me.
"[Tuesday] was the hardest day because of all the threats, and I kept my mouth shut. Not one time did I go out and say anything negative to Rick or make a public statement. I could have done it a thousand times and been mean about the situation," Gingrich continued. "I have been castrated, hung and murdered by the MMA community, and I haven't said one word. Honestly, what good was it going to do?"
Though Gingrich took the aforementioned journalist's advice in mailing the check, the HTFU founder said that it has done little to ease his mind.
"I don't think it really mattered anymore after all the damage was done on the Internet, but now I have to deal with the consequences," said Gingrich. "I pretty much lost everything in this situation. I lost the relationship [with Hawn]. I lost any kind of [public relations] moving forward, and I lost any sort of backing in the MMA world."
Editor's Note: Sherdog.com contacted Rick Hawn representative Mike Russell prior to this story's publication with an offer for a follow-up piece that would provide Russell's and/or Hawn's account of the events, an offer which Russell accepted.

Bill to ban use of aborted fetal tissue circulated
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A Republican-sponsored bill that would ban the sale or use of aborted fetal tissue for research in Wisconsin is being circulated in the Legislature two years after it failed to pass.
The Wisconsin State Journal reports Wednesday that bill sponsor Republican Rep. Andre Jacque, of DePere, says his proposal would ensure scientific integrity.
But University of Wisconsin-Madison and biotech officials say the proposal would hamper important research, including studies on cancer, influenza and diabetes.
UW-Madison spokesman Terry Devitt says the bill could criminalize "a whole raft of research" by banning widely-used cell lines derived from fetal tissue in the 1970s.
Bryan Renk, executive director of state biotech association BioForward, says the cell lines are used in many cancer and flu studies.

Always loved the rosewood finish and I still have my L-450, matching tape deck, tuner, and equalizer in that faux rosewood finish, glad they still continue to do so today. Great products although that retro look on the new turntable is probably not going to be to everybody's taste. But so glad they are back.
Nothing But Music: Luxman and Vivid
As I walked into the room, O'Hanlon explained that Raymond had been knocking everyone's socks off with his vinyl selections.
"As much as I like the music I brought, I'm also kinda sick of it," O'Hanlon chuckled. "What's next, Raymond?"
Raymond dug through his bag of vinyl and handed O'Hanlon a record. The charming host took that record and placed it on Luxman's PD-171 belt-drive turntable ($6200, including tonearm and dustcover), the first turntable to come from the Japanese company in 28 years. O'Hanlon explained that Luxman's been developing the PD-171 for over four years, and, while it maintains the line's retro appearanceit sports a wooden sub-chassis and includes a stroboscope window and LED lampit's also full of modern technology, such as a 32-bit processor for the digital speed controller.
The rest of the system was made of Luxman's SQ-38u tube integrated amp ($6000, with phono stage; review to come from Art Dudley); D-38u CD player, with both tube and solid-state output stages ($4000); Transparent Audio's Ultra interconnects and power cords; and the rather beautiful Vivid B-1 loudspeakers ($14,990/pair, review by John Atkinson to appear in our October issue!). When O'Hanlon wasn't spinning records, he was spinning tape on a SonoruS ("more than a modification") ATR10 reel-to-reel deck.
As O'Hanlon placed the record on the platter and brushed it clean, he told the audience a little story about his room. As is typical for these events, many of the rooms at the Crowne Plaza Hotel posed challenges for the exhibitors. They dealt with these challenges in many waysmost used ASC room treatments, blankets, and clever loudspeaker positioningand, while the results were often acceptable, few exhibitors were actually satisfied.
"We had this one note," O'Hanlon said, gesturing broadly, "and it came into the room, and it kinda waved its arms like this, and then it wandered around the room for a bit and, oh my god, we thought it would never leave…"
Fortunately for O'Hanlon (and the attendees), Music Lovers contributed some ASC Tube Traps and O'Hanlon was further able to dampen reflections by hanging blankets over mirrors and headboards. "Before that," he confessed, "I was so depressed."
It was an old Gene Ammons LP and O'Hanlon cued it up on the Luxman turntable. The music blossomed into the room with stunning presence and lifelike scale. This was luxurious sound with a beautiful sense of space, natural attacks, and long, lovely decays. The system sounded romantic when the music called for it, direct when the music called for it, and was always harmonically rich, full-figured, and detailed. Not only did the loudspeakers disappear, but the entire system disappeared, the room and all its challenges disappeared, leaving nothing but music.
(For all you copy editors out there: No, the room didn't really disappear. I'm just being metaphorical.)
Despite what Philp O'Hanlon said, unfortunately, the sound in this room was dreadful, IMHO. Maybe it was those pesky reflections, but I was singularly unimpressed.

Accommodations in CulleraThe Cullera Beach is one of the most common holiday destinations for family tourism on the coast of Valencia. It is a beach that although it does not provided facilities such as for example showers ... its a very pleasant beach and always full in the summer ... the water is very warm and the sand is of medium grade, somewhat grainy, but is usually very clean. You have to be careful of the hottest days as they tend to accumulate jellyfish on its shores.
Five of the beaches that make a part of this coast are distinguished by the blue flag.
Cullera is the only area of the coast Valencia that has an accident orographic which is like the Sierra de las Zorras, from where you can look at the beautiful views of the coast.
At the port we can take advantage of buying fish at the market and visit the lighthouse, the Bay area of the orange trees which is located away from the mountain where the water is calm and not very deep, ideal for enjoying a bath.... This whole area is covered by a promenade filled with restaurants, shops, ice cream and entertainment ... it is a quiet town that lives mainly from tourism, there you can climb mountains, stroll through the old part of the town or visit the Castle and the Sanctuary of the Virgin, who are on the opposite side of the mountain where the lighthouse is.
Or you can visit the Pirate Museum and the caves of Dragut, this is another option.
As for the nightlife, there are several local clubs and discotheques in the Barcelona Street and on the seafront which meets the ideas of the youngest public, these places are usually open only during the summer for the tourist to visit.

The World Baseball Classic is underway, and while the quadrennial exhibition tournament of pre-authorized or discarded players has featured a few upsets (Italy beats Mexico! Holland beats Cuba!) there are, fortunately, a few things you can rely upon.
One of them is that Rays and Dominican Republic reliever Fernando Rodney's cap will be askew. It's looking especially jaunty right now, and indeed during his brief appearance last night appeared to be rotating itself. Rodney was one of the best pitchers in the majors last year, so fans on the Suncoast have learned to deal with the arrow-slinging fireman's eccentricities. The Dominican Republic shut down a grieving Venezuela team 9-3.

Radiant Heating and Cooling Made Simple
A version of this article appears in the March/April 2006 issue of Home Energy Magazine.
March 02, 2006
Conventional hydronic radiant floor (HRF) heating systems offer significant comfort and efficiency benefits compared to conventional forced air systems. Comfort is improved by delivering heat low, where the people are, and by eliminating forced air noise. Efficiency is improved by reducing indoor temperatures for equal comfort, reducing heat losses associated with thermal stratification and ductwork, and substitution of an energy-efficient pump for the more energy-intensive blower. However, radiant floors currently carry high installation and component costs. In areas where cooling is required, homes with HRF heating usually also need a forced-air cooling system at an additional cost. Combine these issues with home builder concerns about puncturing the radiant tubing during construction, and it's easy to understand why HRF systems are relegated to the high-end, custom-home market.

Abu Jafar Muhammad ibn al-Hasan Al-Khazin
Born: about 900 in Khurasan (eastern Iran)
Died: about 971 in possibly Rayy
|Main Index
|Biographies index
Abu Jafar al-Khazin may have worked on both astronomy and number theory or there may have been two mathematicians both working around the same period, one working on astronomy and one on number theory. As far as this article is concerned we will assume that al-Khazin worked on both topics. There seems no way of being certain which position is correct.
Al-Khazin's family were from Saba, a kingdom in southwestern Arabia, perhaps better known as Sheba from the biblical story of King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. In the Fihrist, a tenth century survey of Islamic culture, he is described Al-Khurasani which means that he came from Khurasan in eastern Iran.
The Buyid dynasty, ruling in western Iran and Iraq, reach its peak around the time that al-Khazin lived. It undertook public schemes such as building hospitals and dams, as well as patronising the arts and sciences. Rayy, situated southeast of present day Tehran, was one of the major cultural centres of the Buyid dynasty. Islamic writers described Rayy as:-
... a city of extraordinary beauty, built largely of fired brick and brilliantly ornamented with blue faience (glazed earthenware).Al-Khazin was one of the scientists brought to the court in Rayy by the ruler of the Buyid dynasty, Adud ad-Dawlah, who ruled from 949 to 983. We know that in 959/960 al-Khazin was required by the vizier of Rayy, who was appointed by Adud ad-Dawlah, to measure the obliquity of the ecliptic (the angle which the plane in which the sun appears to move makes with the equator of the earth). He is said to have made the measurement:-
... using a ring of about 4 meters.One of al-Khazin's works Zij al-Safa'ih (Tables of the disks of the astrolabe) was described by his successors as the best work in the field and they make many reference to it. The work describes some astronomical instruments, in particular it describes an astrolabe fitted with plates inscribed with tables and a commentary on the use of these. A copy of this instrument was made but vanished in Germany at the time of World War II. A photograph of this copy was taken and the article [5] examines this.
Al-Khazin wrote a commentary on Ptolemy's Almagest Ⓣ which was criticised by al-Biruni for being too verbose. Only one fragment of this commentary has survived and a translation of it is given in [6]. The fragment which has survived contains a discussion by al-Khazin of Ptolemy's argument that the universe is spherical. Ptolemy wrote [6]:-
.. of different figures of equal perimeter, the one with more angles is greater in capacity, and therefore it is necessary that a circle is the greatest of surfaces (i.e. of all plane figures with a constant perimeter) and the sphere the greatest of solids.Al-Khazin gives 19 propositions relating to this statement by Ptolemy. The most interesting results show, with a very ingenious proof, that an equilateral triangle has a greater area than any isosceles or scalene triangle with the same perimeter. When he tries to generalise this result to polygons, however, al-Khazin gives incorrect proofs. Other results among the 19 are based on propositions given by Archimedes in On the sphere and cylinder. The author of [6] argues that the ingenious results on triangles are unlikely to be due to al-Khazin but are probably taken by him from some unknown source.
The suggestion in [6] that al-Khazin is a third rate mathematician is somewhat doubtful given his work on number theory but as we stated at the beginning of this article, it is possible that there were two mathematicians of the same name. The papers [4], [9] and [7] all look at this number theory work by al-Khazin (see also [2] and [3]). The work of al-Khazin which is described seems to have been motivated by work of a mathematician by the name of al-Khujandi.
Al-Khujandi claimed to have proved that x3 + y3 = z3 is impossible for whole numbers x, y, z which of course is the n = 3 case of Fermat's Last Theorem. In a letter al-Khazin wrote:-
I demonstrate earlier ... that what Abu Muhammad al-Khujandi advanced - may God have mercy on him - in his demonstration that the sum of two cubic numbers is not a cube is defective and incorrect.This seems to have motivated further correspondence on number theory between al-Khazin and other Arabic mathematicians. Results by al-Khazin here are interesting indeed. His main result is to:-
... show how, if we are given a number, to find a square number so that if the given number were added to it or subtracted from it the result would be square.In modern notation the problem is given a natural number a, find natural numbers x, y, z so that x2 + a = y2 and x2 - a = z2. Al-Khazin proves that the existence of x, y, z with these properties is equivalent to the existence of natural numbers u, v with a = 2uv, and u2 + v2 is a square (in fact u2 + v2 = x2). The smallest example of a satisfying these conditions is 24 which al-Khazin gives
52 + 24 = 72, 52 - 24 = 12.He also gives a = 96 with
102 + 96 = 142, 102 - 96 = 22although, rather strangely, he seems to discount this case by another of his statements. Rashed suggests this may be because 96 = 2 × 48 = 2 × 6 × 8 and 62 + 82 = 102is not a primitive Pythagorean triple.
There is a mystery which Rashed notes in [7] (also in [2] and [3]). This relates to the quote above by al-Khazin regarding the false proof by al-Khujandi of the impossibility of proving x3 + y3 = z3. Rashed has discovered a manuscript which appears to be by al-Khazin, yet contains exactly what he had attributed to al-Khujandi. Although al-Khazin could have realised the error in al-Khujandi's proof and attempted a similar proof himself which he believed correct, there is no really satisfactory explanation of these facts.
Finally we should mention that al-Khazin proposed a different solar model from that of Ptolemy. Ptolemy had the sun moving in uniform circular motion about a centre which was not the earth. Al-Khazin was unhappy with this model since he claimed that if this were the case then the apparent diameter of the sun would vary throughout the year and observation showed that this were not the case. Of course the apparent diameter of the sun does vary but by too small an amount to be observed by al-Khazin. To get round this problem, al-Khazin proposed a model in which the sun moved in a circle which was centred on the earth, but its motion was not uniform about the centre, rather it was uniform about another point (called the excentre).

|Biographies index
Lipót Fejér's mother was Viktória Goldberger and his father was Samu (or Samuel) Weiss; the family was Jewish. The reader will have noticed that Fejér's father had the name Weiss and, indeed, Lipót Fejér was given the name Leopold Weiss when he was born. He changed his name around 1900 to make himself more Hungarian. This was standard practice carried out at that time to show solidarity with Hungarian culture. Weiss in German means "white" while the Hungarian for white is "feher" but he chose the name "Fejér" which is an archaic spelling for the Hungarian for "White". Let us say a little more about his family. Viktória Goldberger's maternal grandfather Sámuel Nachod was a doctor from Pécs, awarded his medical degree in 1809, while her father, József Goldberger, was an eminent man known as the author of a Hebrew-Hungarian dictionary. Samu Weiss, Lipót's father, was a shopkeeper in Pécs.
Lipót's schooling was in Pécs but at first things did not go well and his father took him out of school for a while and acted as his teacher. However, his attitude to mathematics changed dramatically when he was taught the topic by his high school teacher Sigismund Maksay. The Eötvös Mathematics Competition began in 1894 with problems appearing in Középiskolai Matematikai Lapok, the Mathematical and Physical Journal for Secondary Schools. Encouraged by Maksay, Fejér began submitting his solutions to the problems to Budapest [6]:-
Laszló Racz, a secondary school teacher who led a problem study group in Budapest, often opened his session by saying, "Lipót Weiss has again sent in a beautiful solution."In 1897, the year that he graduated from the high school in Pécs, Fejér won second prize in the Eötvös Mathematics Competition. In that year Fejér entered the Polytechnic University of Budapest where he studied mathematics and physics until 1902, except for the year 1899-1900 which he spent at the University of Berlin. In Budapest he was taught by, among others, Julius König, József Kürschák, Manó Beke and Lóránd Eötvös. Despite the strong influence of these outstanding scientists, it was the year he spent in Berlin which led to the results which proved his most significant and influenced his whole career. In Berlin he attended courses by Georg Frobenius and Lazarus Fuchs but it was his discussions with Hermann Schwarz that led him look at the convergence of Fourier series and prove the highly significant "Fejér's theorem" published in Sur les fonctions bornées et intégrables Ⓣ. In this paper, submitted to the Paris Academy of Sciences on 10 December 1900, he proved:
The Fourier series is summable (C, 1) to the value of the function at each point of continuity.Fejér's theorem is a simple, beautiful theorem, and, in the opinion of Jean-Pierre Kahane [8], its discovery restored to Fourier series a fundamental role in analysis for at least fifty years. Also, at that time the theory of functions of one real variable had produced a number of strange anomalies (like continuous, nowhere differentiable functions), and Fejér's theorem, by its simplicity, reassured mathematicians who were disturbed by these pathological results. While attending Schwarz's twice-monthly colloquium, in which he was lecturing on his collected works, Fejér met Constantin Carathéodory, Erhard Schmidt and Issai Schur who were doctoral students, and Edmund Landau who was a privatdozent. He formed lasting friendships with these mathematicians who he collaborated with throughout the rest of his life. From Schwarz, in addition to specific ideas for his research, Fejér inherited a geometrical approach to mathematics and a love of extremal problems. We note that it was while he was in Berlin that he changed his name from Weiss to Fejér and, after he did so, Schwarz jokingly refused to talk to him! Fejér's fundamental summation theorem for Fourier series formed the basis of his doctoral thesis which he presented to the University of Budapest in 1902. This doctoral thesis contained important corollaries of "Fejér's theorem" which also appear in the paper Untersuchungen über Fouriersche Reihen Ⓣ (1904):
1. If the Fourier series of a function converges at a point of continuity of the function, its sum is the value of the function at that point;Fejér spent the winter of 1902-3 on a visit to Göttingen, attending lectures by David Hilbert and Hermann Minkowski, and the summer of 1903 in Paris where he attended lectures by Émile Picard and Jacques Hadamard. After this year he returned to Hungary and, from 1903 to 1905, he taught at the University of Budapest. Although Fejér had gained an international reputation because of his outstanding papers, he did not have a permanent position in Hungary and was relatively unknown there. This is nicely illustrated by the following story. In 1905 Henri Poincaré was awarded the first Bolyai prize and arrived in Budapest to receive the award. He was met at the railway station by many high ranking officials and he immediately asked "Where is Fejér?" The Hungarian officials had never heard of Fejér so they asked Poincaré, "Who is Fejér?" Poincaré replied, "Fejér is the greatest Hungarian mathematician, one of the world's greatest mathematicians." Soon after this Fejér was offered the chair of mathematics at Kolozsvár in Hungary (now Cluj in Romania)
2. Weierstrass's approximation theorem: A function continuous in a closed interval is a uniform limit of polynomials;
3. Poisson's integral provides a valid solution for Dirichlet's problem for the circle.
2. Weierstrass's approximation theorem: A function continuous in a closed interval is a uniform limit of polynomials;
3. Poisson's integral provides a valid solution for Dirichlet's problem for the circle.
From 1905 until 1911 he taught at Kolozsvár during which time he produced many high quality beautifully written papers: six in 1906, three in 1907, five in 1908, four in 1909 and six in 1910. In 1911 Fejér was appointed to the chair of mathematics at the University of Budapest and he held that post until his death. However there were problems regarding his appointment to the chair as is recounted in [21]:-
Although already world famous and warmly endorsed by Poincaré on the occasion of the awarding of the Bolyai Prize, Fejér's appointment to a chair at the University had been opposed by anti-semites on the Faculty. One of them, knowing full well that Fejér's original name had been Weiss, asked during the occasion of Fejér's candidacy: 'Is this Leopold Fejér related to our distinguished colleague on the Faculty of Theology, Father Ignatius Fejér?' Without missing a beat Loránd Eötvös, Professor of Physics, answered "Illegitimate son". After that the appointment sailed through smoothly.Despite these difficulties, Fejér was honoured with election to the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 1911 and being a vice-president of the International Congress of Mathematicians held in Cambridge, England, in August 1912. During his period in the chair at Budapest, Fejér led a highly successful Hungarian school of analysis. He published important works such as Über die Konvergenz der Potenzreihe an der Konvergenzgrenze in Fallen der konformen Abbildung auf die schlichte Ebene Ⓣ (1914), Über Interpolation Ⓣ (1916), and Interpolation und konforme Abbildung Ⓣ, (1918). However, he was greatly affected by World War I, and the political events which followed, as Paul Turan recounts [24]:-
Naturally, World War I had an impact on him, to which a serious illness added in 1916. The effect of counterrevolutionary times was shown by a three-year gap in the list of his papers. He never did overcome the effect of those times [the white terror under Miklós Horthy in the early 1920s], as could be perceived again and again from his hints.Fejér's main work was in harmonic analysis. He worked on power series and on potential theory. Much of his work is on Fourier series and their singularities but he also contributed to approximation theory. He collaborated to produce important papers, one with Carathéodory on entire functions in 1907 and another major work with Riesz in 1922 on conformal mapping. However, as a Jew he suffered after the Nazis came to power. He had a prostate operation in the early 1940s after which he did little research and, as a Jew, was forced to retire in 1944. However, after this his situation quickly became totally unbearable [6]:-
Late one December night, the residents in his house on Tatra Street were lined up by Arrow Cross "lads," to be marched to the bank of the Danube. They were saved by the phone call of a brave officer. Other Budapest Jews did meet death from a gunshot there by the riverbank. After the liberation, Fejér was found in an emergency hospital on Tatra Street "under hardly describable circumstances."Although Fejér survived this horrific episode, his mental capacities rapidly deteriorated. He was fully aware that he was loosing the place and would make comments such as "Since I became a complete idiot." Paul Erdős said (see [6]):-
He was happy when he didn't think about it. He continued to recognize my mother and me. In the hospital he was well cared for, till he died of a stroke in 1959.One of Fejér's students, Agnes Berger, described his lecturing style in the following way (see [21]):-
Fejér gave very short, very beautiful lectures. They lasted less than an hour. You sat there for a long time before he came. When he came in, he would be in a sort of frenzy. He was very ugly-looking when you first examined him, but he had a very lively face with a lot of expression. The lecture was thought out in very great detail, with dramatic denouement. He seemed to relive the birth of the theorem; we were present at the creation. He made his famous contemporaries equally vivid; they rose from the pages of the textbooks. That made mathematics appear as a social as well as an intellectual activity.Finally let us quote George Pólya [16] about Fejér's personality:-
He had artistic tastes. He deeply loved music and was a good pianist. He liked a well-turned phrase. "As to earning a living," he said, "a professor's salary is a necessary, but not a sufficient, condition." Once he was very angry with a colleague who happened to be a topologist [Béla Kerékjártó], and explaining the case at length he wound up by declaring: "... and what he is saying is a topological mapping of the truth." He had a quick eye for human foibles and miseries; in seemingly dull situations he noticed points that were unexpectedly funny or unexpectedly pathetic. He carefully cultivated his talent of raconteur; when he told, with his characteristic little gestures, of the little shortcomings of a certain great mathematician, he was irresistible. The hours spent in continental coffee houses with Fejér discussing mathematics and telling stories are a cherished recollection for many of us. Fejér presented his mathematical remarks with the same verve as his stories, and this may have helped him in winning the lasting interest of so many younger men in his problems.Pólya writes in [17]:-
Was Fejér eccentric? If you could see him in his rather Bohemian attire (which was, I suspect, carefully chosen) you would find him very eccentric. Yet he would not appear so in his natural habitat, in a certain section of Budapest middle-class society, many members of which had the same manners, if not quite the same mannerisms, as Fejér - there he would appear about half eccentric.We have already mentioned some of the honours given to Fejér but, in addition, he received the Kossuth Prize, first grade (1948), the People's Order of Merit (1950), and the Labour Red Flag of Merit (1953). He was elected to the Göttingen Academy of Sciences (1925), the Bavarian Academy of Sciences (1954), and the Polish Academy of Sciences (1957). He was elected an honorary member of the Calcutta Mathematical Society (1930), and awarded an honorary doctorate by Brown University in Providence, USA (1933) and by Eötvös Loránd University of Budapest (1950). He also served as an editor of the Rendiconti del Circolo Matematico di Palermo and of the Mathematische Zeitschrift.
We end with this fine tribute by George Pólya [16]:-
Why did Hungary produce so many mathematicians of our time? Many people have asked this question which, I think, nobody can fully answer. There were, however, two factors whose influence on Hungarian mathematics is manifest and undeniable, and one of these was Leopold Fejér, his work, his personality. The other factor was the combination of a competitive examination in mathematics with a periodical.

What If The Very Theory That Underlies Why We Need Patents Is Wrong?
from the collaborative-innovation-at-work deptScott Walker points us to a fascinating paper by Carliss Y. Baldwin and Eric von Hippel, suggesting that some of the most basic theories on which the patent system is based are wrong, and because of that, the patent system might hinder innovation. Obviously, we've pointed to numerous other research papers and case studies that suggest that the patent system quite frequently hinders innovation, but this one approaches it from a different angle than ones we've seen before, and is actually quite convincing. It looks at the putative theory that innovation comes from a direct profit motive of a single corporation looking to sell the good in market, and for that to work, the company needs to take the initial invention and get temporary monopoly protection to keep out competitors in order to recoup the cost of research and development.
The problem is that while this is certainly true sometimes, in many, many, many other cases -- it's not the way it works at all. Instead, the paper goes through a whole bunch of studies suggesting that quite frequently innovation happens through a very different process: either individuals or companies directly trying to solve a problem they themselves have (i.e., the initial motive is not to profit directly from sales, but to help them in something they were doing) or through a much more collaborative process, whereby multiple parties all contribute to the process of innovation, somewhat openly, recognizing that as each contributes some, everyone benefits. As the report notes:
This result hinges on the fact that the innovative design itself is a non-rival good: each participant in a collaborative effort gets the value of the whole design, but incurs only a fraction of the design cost.But, of course, patents are designed to make that sort of thing more difficult, because it assumes that the initial act of invention is the key point, rather than all the incremental innovations built on top of it that all parties can benefit from. In fact, the report points to numerous studies that show, when given the chance, many companies freely share their ideas with others, recognizing the direct benefit they get. This flies in the face of (unsubstantiated) claims by patent system supporters that the patent system is needed to disclose and share inventions. In fact, the evidence suggests that in many cases, firms will willingly share that information anyway (for a variety of reasons detailed in the report) without requiring the "prize" of a monopoly right to do so.
Even more importantly, the paper finds that due to technological advances and the ability to more rapidly and easily communicate and collaborate widely, these forms of innovation (innovation for direct use as well as collaborative innovation) are becoming more and more viable across a variety of industries, which in the past may have relied more on the old way of innovating (single company innovative for the profit of selling that product). And, in fact, because of the ease of communication and collaboration these days, there's tremendous incentive for those companies that innovate for their own use to collaborate with others, since the benefit from others improving as well help improve their own uses. Thus, the overall incentives are to move much more to a collaborative form of innovation in the market. That has huge implications for a patent system designed to help the "old model" of innovation (producer inventing for the market) and not the increasingly regular one (collaborative innovation for usage).
Of course, no one is saying that producer-based innovation (company inventing to sell on the market) doesn't occur or won't continue to occur. But it is an open policy question as to whether or not our innovation policies should favor that model over other models -- when evidence suggests that a significant amount of innovation occurs in these other ways -- and that amount is growing rapidly.
The paper points out that the "devil's bargain" of granting monopoly rights in order to create incentives for producer-driven innovation makes less and less sense:
The work in this paper and that of many others, suggests that this traditionally-struck 'devil's bargain' may not be beneficial. First, there is increasing evidence that intellectual property protection does not increase innovation. As we saw in section 2.2, studies carried out over 40 years do not find that firm managers are inclined to increase their innovation investments due to the availability of patent grant protections. There are also many examples in which strong intellectual property rights may have impeded subsequent progress (Dosi, Marengo and Pasquali, 2006; Merges and Nelson, 1994). Indeed, recent empirical work has actually shown a negative relationship between patenting and subsequent progress in both biotechnology (Murray and Stern 2007) and software (Bessen and Meurer 2008). Second, the ascendent user and open collaborative innovation models that we have discussed in this paper mean that alternatives that are open by participants' free choice -- and to the economic benefit of those participants -- are now ascendent alternatives to the traditional, closed producer innovation model. And openness, as we noted above, increases social welfare, other things equal.The paper concludes with some policy recommendations, seeking to have the government look for ways to encourage more collaborative and open innovation, such as by supporting more open licensing programs directly (such as open source licenses), though I'm not sure what specific support the government really needs to do there. It also suggests that net neutrality actually plays into this as well -- as one of the reasons why there is greater collaboration is that a neutral network infrastructure made that possible. Removing network neutrality could limit the ability to collaborate, and because of that, the social benefit found from such collaborative projects. Again, I'm not convinced that any ISP would go so far as to restrict communication to that level, but it is an interesting note.
Either way, it's yet another study that suggests our patent system is tremendously obsolete in terms of actually promoting the progress, and is set up in a way that favors a concept of innovation and invention that may not be how the world actually works.

Intranet and Portal Solutions for Manufacturing Companies
Digital is changing everything in manufacturing. Products are connected. Parts are connected. The machines that build the parts are connected. Every step and every component is communicating, and it's all leading to a holistic, data-driven view of the manufacturing process. Manufacturers are using Liferay Digital Experience Platform to achieve their digital transformation goals by:
- Connecting people and data from disparate systems.
- Enabling the creation of new products, services and ways to go to market.
- Going from mass production to mass customization with business processes that are designed around the customer.

IoT is delivering incredible amounts of new data and insights for companies to use to speed up production, reduce costs, improve quality and ultimately create better experiences for your customers. The challenge is managing all that data and getting it into use quickly. Liferay software is equipped to integrate with anything you throw at it. Bring disparate data sources together, from different vendors, into one location to build a virtual view of your product's entire lifecycle to identify areas of improvement and opportunities to add new services or products.

Consolidation of Disparate Sites and Services
One Liferay customer wanted to grow its business by making its product catalogs available online. However, it had multiple catalogs on various systems and needed a way to bring it all together. The company used Liferay software to connect its disparate systems in order to create a unified online view of all its catalogs.

Syrian planes pound rebel town near Lebanon border
BEIRUT (AP) -- Syrian warplanes pounded a rebel-held town near the Lebanese border on Wednesday, activists said, as opposition leaders in Geneva called on Russia to put pressure on the government to prevent the faltering peace negotiations from collapsing.
A second round of talks that started in Geneva Monday is mired in acrimony as government and opposition delegates hurl accusations back and forth, unable to agree on a common agenda.
The U.N. said that a meeting between senior U.S. and Russian officials -- who are backing the process -- with U.N. mediator Lakhdar Brahimi will be held in Geneva Thursday, a day before it was originally planned.
The talks have been accompanied by a sharp rise in violence on the ground in Syria. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said a least 4,959 people have died in Syria in the three-week period since Jan. 22, when the first round of talks began in Switzerland.
The group, which documents the fighting on the ground through a wide network of activists, say the period has seen the highest death toll since the uprising against Bashar Assad started in March 2011. In a statement, it called for suspending the talks in Geneva if they don't produce an immediate cessation of all military operations.
Troops on Wednesday pounded Yabroud -- the last rebel stronghold in Syria's mountainous Qalamoun region. Backed by Lebanon's Hezbollah fighters, the Syrian army has been on a crushing offensive there since early December.
Activists reported heavy fighting in the area between troops loyal to Assad and rebels trying to overthrow him. The Observatory said warplanes have carried out 10 airstrikes so far on Wednesday.
In Lebanon, preparations were underway to receive more Syrians fleeing the area.
An Associated Press reporter in the border town of Arsal saw several trucks and buses packed with people, clothes and other belongings rolling into Lebanon.
A senior official with the town's administration told AP that up to 300 Syrians have crossed into Lebanon over the past 48 hours. He spoke on condition his name is not be used because he was not authorized to speak to reporters.
Yabroud has been controlled by the opposition for much of Syria's nearly 3-year-old conflict. Lebanese Sunni Muslims have moved through the town to join Syrian rebels in battles against Assad's forces, bringing in weapons and supplies for opposition fighters from across the border in Arsal.
Hezbollah fighters have been key to the Syrian army's success in the border region.
In June, the Iran-backed group helped Assad's forces regain control of the town of Qusair. Its fall tipped the balance of power in the Syrian conflict in Assad's favor, though Hezbollah's public involvement in the civil war next door deepened sectarian tensions in Lebanon.
In Geneva, the opposition urged Russia, a key ally of Assad, to take a more forceful stand with the Syrian government. Russian Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Gennady Gatilov met U.N. mediator Lakhdar Brahimi Wednesday morning, before Brahimi brought the Syrian sides together for another unfruitful session.
"I do hope that the Russians will put enough pressure on the regime delegation to be flexible," said Anas al-Abdeh, a member of the opposition negotiating team.
Louay Safi, another opposition figure, called on Russia to "respect the Syrian people."
A trilateral meeting involving Gatilov, U.S. Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs Wendy Sherman and Brahimi is scheduled to be held in Geneva on Thursday to discuss the deadlock. The meeting was brought forward by one day although no explanation was given.
Lebanon's Mayadeen TV and Hezbollah's Al-Manar TV said the Syrian army has started "a wide-scale military operation in Yabroud." In the early afternoon, Assad's troops took control of the village of Jarajir and surrounding hills on the Syrian side of the border, Syria's state-run news agency said.
In Syria, more civilians were expected to leave the embattled city of Homs before an extended cease-fire expires at midnight Wednesday, Syrian Red Crescent said in a statement.
The aid organization has been part of the relief effort in Homs since Friday, when the U.N.-brokered humanitarian truce went into effect. Its statement said the staff entered the city earlier Wednesday to deliver 190 food parcels and 190 bags of flour.
Karam reported from Geneva. Associated Press photographer Hussein Malla in Arsal, Lebanon contributed to this report.

Hunter says bruised hand 'not that bad'
BALTIMORE -- Orioles right-hander Tommy Hunter was confident he had avoided any serious injury to his right hand on Monday morning, showing reporters the slightly swollen palm a night removed from barehanding a hard hit ball from Toronto's Jose Bautista.
"It's fine," said Hunter, who had an initial X-ray on Sunday night come back negative. "Kind of like taking one off the shin, I guess. It's not that bad at all. It's going to be. Got me in the meat of it. But it'll be all right, hopefully. Maybe I'll get a day off today. We'll see. I'll go play catch, maybe."
A second X-ray done Monday was also negative.
"There's different levels of X-rays, so we are going to do the Level 2," Orioles manager Buck Showalter said before Monday's results were known. "He feels good, all things considered. So I think we dodged an injury, not necessarily the ball."
Hunter wasn't available on Monday and was shooting to be an active pitcher again for Tuesday night's game against the Nationals. The 26-year-old Hunter, who allowed one run on four hits over 1 1/3 innings Sunday, worked out of a bases-loaded jam to end the seventh inning and has been on an impressive run. Since April 12, Hunter is 3-0 with a 1.07 ERA in 15 outings, striking out 17 and walking five.

The views expressed are as at the date of publication and may no longer be current.
The long-term opportunities and challenges for African private equity, and the important role of good governance were the central themes underpinning the dinner debate hosted by the Investment Institute of Investec Asset Management at The Connaught in London. Lord Mark Malloch-Brown chaired a lively discussion involving the African Celtel-entrepreneur and governance champion, Dr Mo Ibrahim, Hendrik du Toit, CEO of Investec Asset Management, and a small group of senior leaders active in African investment.
The General consensus was that the continent has had a remarkable decade of growth and development, but the continuation of Africa's growth is not a foregone conclusion. The challenges for the continent are clear and significant and recent setbacks in political stability, especially, have caused many to question the sustainability of Africa's rise. While the opportunity for investment returns over the long term are apparent, global investors must carefully navigate Africa's opportunity set in an objective way. This requires an appreciation of economics and business as well as governance and institutions.Return to Investment Institute
