Milwaukee School of Engg HOLISTIC NUMERICAL METHODS INSTITUTE Committed to bringing numerical methods to undergraduates Thomas Simpson You know how “basket weaving” always turns up during discussion of “easy” college courses? One of the great mathematicians of our time, especially for the subject of numerical methods, might have fallen victim to basket weaving had it not been for a rare celestial occasion. Thomas Simpson, born on August 20, 1710, in Market Bosworth, Leicestershire, England, was the son of a self-taught weaver. Simpson’s father naturally expected his son to take up the same profession as his “ol’ man”. However, with the occurrence of a solar eclipse in 1724, Thomas Simpson turned to “mathematical interests”, changing his life forever. After a little help mastering Cocker’s Arithmetic and the concepts of algebra, Simpson became an “usher” (“the most distinguished of a group of itinerant lecturers who taught in the London coffee-houses”), which greatly improved his mathematical skills. By 1735, he was able to solve puzzles concerning infinitesimal calculus. In 1737, he wrote the first of his mathematical texts, the first of two volumes of

Thomas received little formal education. He did attend school in Market Bosworth for a while but his first job was as a weaver. He taught himself mathematics, something which was not uncommon for weavers at that time as we shall see below. He moved away from his home town to take up a position as a schoolmaster in Nuneaton, Warwickshire. From about 1725, when Simpson was fifteen years old, until around 1733, he taught mathematics in Nuneaton. Simpson had lodgings in Nuneaton with a lady by the name of Swinfield whom he married in 1730. They had one daughter Elizabeth born in 1736 and one son Thomas born in 1738. In fact Simpson and his wife had left Nuneaton before his children were born. The reason which has been reported by his biographers is as follows. He [2]:- ... had to flee to Derby in after he or his assistant had frightened a girl by dressing up as a devil during an astrology session.

ISBN: 1-84023-415-6. I n a desert when there’s still far too little Farscape book material outside of non-canon novels, I end up buying these books when I see them. The main difference with this volume compared to the last two is this one has an 8 page colour insert showing some of the key cast and make-up effects. Other than that, it’s pretty much a mix of episode guide with interviews. There’s a chapter devoted to the animation episode - together with character designs - as well as the usual extensive look at the effects. A real tour de force for any Farscape fan. If you’re a fan, then you’ve probably got a copy by now, especially if you want a first edition. The earlier editions have gone into reprint a long while back. Some of my criticism from the previous volumes still stands. What’s the point of having an episode synopsis which doesn’t go right to the end? More so when you turn the page and there’s the start of the next episode. It’s hardly like it should spoil any surprises for any fan of the series.

Simpson, Thomas English mathematician and writer who devised Simpson's rule, which simplifies the calculation of areas under graphic curves. He also worked out a formula that can be used to find the volume of any solid bounded by a ruled surface and two parallel planes. Simpson was born in Market Bosworth, Leicestershire, and self-educated. After an eclipse of the Sun, he took up astrology and gained a reputation in the locality for divination. But after he had apparently frightened a girl into having fits by 'raising a devil' from her, he was obliged to flee with his wife to Derby. In 1735 or 1736 he moved to London and worked as a weaver at Spitalfields, teaching mathematics in his spare time. It was there that he published his first mathematical works, which won some acclaim. Soon after 1740 he was elected to the Royal Academy of Stockholm, and in 1743 he was appointed professor of mathematics at the Royal Academy in Woolwich, London. Simpson's first mathematical work, in 1737, was a treatise on 'fluxions' (calculus). This was followed by The Nature and Laws of Chance 1740, The Doctrine of Annuities and Reversions 1742, Mathematical Dissertation on a Variety of Physical and Analytical Subjects 1743, A Treatise of Algebra 1745, Elements of Geometry 1747, Trigonometry, Plane and Spherical 1748, Select Exercises in Mathematics 1752, and Miscellaneous Tracts on Some Curious Subjects in Mechanics, Physical Astronomy and Special Mathematics 1757.

Introduction New Guinea The Tragedy of War On Patrol in New Hanover ... Return to Lost Lives by Margaret Henderson Introduction My father was Thomas Nevison Simpson. I grew up knowing superficial details of his life. However, when my mother died in 1992 I found a cache of letters and old photographs in a dusty suitcase on top of a wardrobe. This was the clue which enabled me to piece together the story of the father I never knew and to better understand my mother who had always been an enigma. I discovered that his life had been a series of setbacks which would have destroyed most people but which he surmounted, only to be cruelly cut down by the inhumanity of World War II. Tom was born in London March 1909. His father was an ex-soldier of the Highland Light Infantry described in the birth certificate as a 'journeyman pastry cook'. His mother was Maria Theresa Nevison. When Tom was five, his father William died of consumption leaving Maria with three children (two young daughters and a son) and a fourth child expected in a few months. Maria struggled on to support her young family by working in the Osram factory making light bulbs. Eventually, she was able to get Tom accepted by the Royal Caledonian Asylum (a boarding school) when he was six and a half years old. The Royal Caledonian School was a charity which catered for the children of soldiers who had served in Scottish Regiments. Maria died of influenza and consumption in 1918 and Tom was an orphan at eight years of age. A younger sister (Molly) was also accepted by the Royal Caledonian Asylum.
