Math Biographies
Mathematicians are ones who have studied pi, have used pi in their work or were chosen by students for personal reasons.
http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/Edu/RSE/RSEorange/biosub.html

Extractions: The following list are biographies that have been submitted by students participating in the Mathematics project. The mathematicians are ones who have studied , have used in their work or were chosen by students for personal reasons. If you wish to add to this list submit your biography on the History page. Muhammed was born in 780 A.D. and died in 850 A.D. He was an Arabic mathematician who introduced the Hindu decimal system and the use of zero into Arabic mathematics. He also extended the work of Diophantis on algebraic equations in a book, the title which included the word al-jabr (transposition) from which the modern word algebra is derived. I chose this mathematician because he sounded interesting, and important to the world of mathematics. Jennifer, 1996 Although no one knows for sure, people speculate that Archimedes was born sometime around 287 B.C. As a boy he probably attended school in Alexandria, which was the center of Greek learning. After school Archimedes went to live in Syracuse, Sicily, which was then a Greek colony. Here he did much work for the king, Hiero. Archimedes made many discoveries in Math and Physics. One of his mathematical advances was with pi. Archimedes found a way to determine a more exact value of pi. He showed the value of pi was somewhere between 3 1/7 and 3 10/71. This discovery made it possible to solve many problems relating to the area of a circle and the volume of cylinders. Another invention was that of a new type of numeration system. Archimedes' new system worked much better with large numbers than the Roman and Greek systems.

The Red Hot Jazz Archive
A history of jazz before 1930 offering RealAudio files, biographies, discographies, and filmography.
http://www.redhotjazz.com/

Extractions: Buddy Bolden is generally considered to be the first real Jazz musician. Other early players included Freddie Keppard Bunk Johnson , and Clarence Williams . Although these musicians names are unknown to most people, then and now, their ideas are still being elaborated on to this day. Most of these men could not make a living with their music and were forced to work menial jobs to get by. The second wave of New Orleans Jazz musicians like Joe "King" Oliver Kid Ory , and Jelly Roll Morton fromed small bands, that took the music of these older men and increased the complexity and dynamic of their music, as well as gaining greater commercial success. This music became know as "Hot Jazz", because of the often break neck speeds and amazing improvised polyphony that these bands produced. A young virtuoso cornet player named Louis Armstrong was discovered in New Orleans by King Oliver . Armstrong soon grew to become the greatest Jazz musician of his era and eventually one of the biggest stars in the world. The impact of Armstrong and other Jazz musicians altered the course of both popular and Classical music. African American musical styles became the dominant force in 20th century music. The Red Hot Archive is a place to study and enjoy the music of these early "Jazzmen". Due to recent advances in technology it is now possible to broadcast text, music, and pictures around the world via the Internet. This site is an experiment in using this new multimedia technology. We hope it will combine the best of books and audio recordings, into valuable and enjoyable tool for appreciating this music and the men and women who produced it. This site is a work in progress and will continue to grow as more recordings and writings are added to the archive. Submissions, suggestions, and corrections are welcome.
