Extractions: On Inventing Speeches Thucydides History of the Peloponnesian War was a major innovation in the recounting of the past. Rather than telling stories for entertainment or mythological reasons, Thucydides tried to analyse the past and form a coherent narrative. To do this required coming to grips with less than perfect source material. Thucydides discusses his solution.

James Gosling goes with Java, but behind him was Patrick Naughton and Wayne Rosing. Ray Ozzie wrote Notes, along with Len Kawell and Tim Halvorsen. Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson go hand-in-hand into the Unix hall of fame, but Bell Labs' stalwarts Steve Johnson and Brian Kernihan deserve a hand as well. If technology be the stuff of life, gentlemen, play on.

http://sln.fi.edu/flights/first/before.html

Extractions: Larger View of Orville Orville and Wilbur's father, Milton, was a minister in the Church of the United Brethren in Christ. As part of his work, he often traveled from place to place. When he returned home, he often brought gifts for his young children. Once, he presented a rubberband-powered flying toy to the boys. The toy fascinated them and sparked their lifelong interest in flight. Late in the autumn of 1878, our father came into the house one evening with some object partly concealed in his hands, and before we could see what it was, he tossed it into the air. Instead of falling to the floor, as we expected, it flew across the room till it struck the ceiling, where it fluttered awhile, and finally sank to the floor ... It was a light frame of cork and bamboo, covered with paper, which formed two screws, driven in opposite directions by rubber bands under torsion. A toy so delicate lasted only a short time in the hands of small boys, but its memory was abiding." Neither Wilbur nor Orville finished high school, although both liked to learn new things. By the time Wilbur was 22 years old, he and Orville (who was 18) opened their own printing office. They recycled broken parts and built the printing press they would use to start their business. A few years later, they became interested in bicycles and decided to switch businesses. In 1893, they opened the Wright Cycle Company, a bicycle sales and repair business in their hometown of Dayton, Ohio. By 1896, Wilbur had his mind set on a new idea: flying.
Young, A.: The Harmony Of Illusions: Inventing Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
of the book The Harmony of Illusions inventing PostTraumatic StressDisorder by Young, A., published by Princeton University Press.
http://www.pupress.princeton.edu/titles/5802.html

Extractions: Shopping Cart Reviews Table of Contents As far back as we know, there have been individuals incapacitated by memories that have filled them with sadness and remorse, fright and horror, or a sense of irreparable loss. Only recently, however, have people tormented with such recollections been diagnosed as suffering from "post-traumatic stress disorder." Here Allan Young traces this malady, particularly as it is suffered by Vietnam veterans, to its beginnings in the emergence of ideas about the unconscious mind and to earlier manifestations of traumatic memory like shell shock or traumatic hysteria. In Young's view, PTSD is not a timeless or universal phenomenon newly discovered. Rather, it is a "harmony of illusions," a cultural product gradually put together by the practices, technologies, and narratives with which it is diagnosed, studied, and treated and by the various interests, institutions, and moral arguments mobilizing these efforts. This book is part history and part ethnography, and it includes a detailed account of everyday life in the treatment of Vietnam veterans with PTSD. To illustrate his points, Young presents a number of fascinating transcripts of the group therapy and diagnostic sessions that he observed firsthand over a period of two years. Through his comments and the transcripts themselves, the reader becomes familiar with the individual hospital personnel and clients and their struggle to make sense of life after a tragic war. One observes that everyone on the unit is heavily invested in the PTSD diagnosis: boundaries between therapist and patient are as unclear as were the distinctions between victim and victimizer in the jungles of Southeast Asia.
Inventing Density
inventing Density. by Eleanor Duckworth Professor of Education, Harvard University.Published by North Dakota Study Group on Evaluation, Grand Forks, ND,
http://www.exploratorium.edu/IFI/resources/classroom/inventingdensity.html

Extractions: Published by North Dakota Study Group on Evaluation, Grand Forks, ND, 1986. This monograph is for Claire, Colette, Danielle, Evelyne, Henri, Ingrid, Jacques, Jeanne, Lise, and Pierre, and for the scores of other teachers who have put themselves on the line as learners in the search for greater understanding of learning and teaching. This is a story about the collective creation of knowledge: its multiple beginnings; its movement forwards, backwards, sidewards; its intertwining pathways. The setting is a course in the educational psychology of science teaching, at the University of Geneva. My approach to teaching this course is to engage the students in finding out something for themselves through their own investigations of everyday phenomena; and then to draw psychological and pedagogical themes from this joint engagement. What it is that becomes the major subject of study varies from group to group; we try two or three kinds of activities until something catches on. In this group, the first one happened to catch on: why some things float and not others. It caught on partly because of some tantalizing phenomena that occurred in the very first session, and partly because the members of the group (with one exception) were willing to acknowledge that they didn't know, or couldn't remember what they ever might have been taught about, what makes things float. It was their willingness to be perplexed, and to struggle publicly with their own perplexities, that created the story.

Extractions: Peter H. Duesberg, 'Inventing the AIDS Virus' Regnery USA 1996, 720 pages, ISBN 0-89526-470-6. HIV does not cause AIDS... AIDS is not sexually transmitted... AZT makes AIDS worse, not better... So argues Dr. Peter Duesberg, one of the world's leading microbiologists, a pioneer in the discovery of the HIV family of viruses, and a member of the National Academy of Sciences. Duesberg's evidence - revealed in top scientific journals but kept out of the mainstream press - raises questions the AIDS research establishment has so far declined to answer: With annual federal funding at more than $7 billion, AIDS research is better funded than any other disease - including cancer. Yet it has also produced the least results. Why? Duesberg explains how the lure of money and prestige, combined with powerful political pressures, have tempted otherwise responsible scientists to overlook - even suppress - major flaws in current AIDS theory.
Inventing And Invoking Tradition In Holocaust Memorials
inventing and Invoking Tradition in Holocaust Memorials.
http://www.temple.edu/isllc/newfolk/memorials1.html

Extractions: Penn State Harrisburg This essay is an expanded revision of a presentation made at a symposium entitled "The Meaning of Things" held at the Cooper Hewitt, National Design Museum (Smithsonian Institution) in New York City, May 18, 1996. When ground was broken for the World War II Memorial on Veteran's Day of 2000 in Washington, D.C., a symbolic center for the nation, several speakers shared the hope that the structure about to be built would provide a sacred space that could become a backdrop for a ritual of remembrance. They hoped for the kind of ritual response that the Vietnam Memorial on the National Mall had inspired, and privately worried that the memorial would go the way of neglected sculpture for the Korean War (see Haas 1998). They hoped that the memory of a conflict in "good time" more than fifty years after the event, and thought of as "a good war," fought for a noble cause, would inspirit the memorial, indeed go beyond being symbolic to become "cultural." In ritually breaking ground, and expressing hopes and plans for memorials, especially for wars and tragedies, speakers confront a central problem of inventing and invoking tradition for public consumption. While private ceremonies for individual deaths have prescribed customs of grief, according to ethnic and regional traditions, the process of constructing memorials for the whole meant for public display, have less predictable responses. Since the purpose of public memorialization is more common on the landscape, memorial design, particularly for wars and tragedies that many citizens want to forget, struggles to create a location as well as an aesthetic for tradition.

Extractions: The terms of the deal are almost complete, and the negotiating teams decide to go out on the town to continue their discussion in more relaxed surroundings. A few drinks later, the lights go low and somebody flicks a button. Suddenly, images of a dreamlike California are drifting across a screen, a low-key musical accompaniment is floating through the room and the company chairman, heaving with emotion, is crooning into a microphone: "You ain't nothin' but a hound dog..." It's time to praise (and occasionally curse) the muse of a million cocktail lounges, the genius who gave voice to the common man in the 20th century, Daisuke Inoue. Daisuke who? The laid-back sometime drummer who currently operates out of a second-floor walk-up in the suburbs of Osaka hardly seems to belong in the company of those Asians who turned whole continents on their heads with their ideas and visions and resolve. Yet this Eastern Walter Mitty has, in his unobtrusive way, helped to liberate legions of the once unvoiced: as much as Mao Zedong or Mohandas Gandhi changed Asian days, Inoue transformed its nights. He helped invent karaoke, creating a tradition that, in 30 years, has become as universally known as pizza or disco.

Invite Friends Feature Column Column by Jeffrey Perren - Jul 25, 2005 In the summer of 1958, Jack Kilby had no vacation. The thirty-five year old engineer had only recently been hired by Texas Instruments, a small semiconductor company in Dallas that no one outside the industry had even heard of. It was July, and as many manufacturers do at some point in the year, TI shut down for two weeks. Jack, new to the job with no accumulated vacation time, looked around for something to work on that would impress his new boss, as well as help him avoid having to work on the dreary project he anticipated. A few weeks later, he invented something he called an Integrated Circuit. By 1958, the imaginations of electrical engineers had outrun their ability to realize their visions due to a phenomenon called 'the tyranny of large numbers.' With vacuum tubes giving way to the recently invented solid-state transistor (in 1947, commercially available in 1952), many were trying to discover ways to shrink components and place them into a tightly contained package. In order to create a complex electrical circuit, a number of individual components resistors, capacitors, transistors needed to be joined together, usually with wires and soldering iron. The size and heat-generating properties of these relatively bulky components limited how many could be put into a space of a given volume. To add to the difficulty, to realize the applications they had in mind would require connecting thousands of such components by hand.
