# Lapalissade

A lapalissade is an obvious truth—i.e. a truism or tautology—which produces a comical effect. It is derived from the name Jacques de la Palice, and the word is used in several languages.

## Origin

La Palice's epitaph reads:
    "Ci-gît le Seigneur de La Palice: s'il n'était pas mort, il ferait encore envie."
    ("Here lies the Seigneur de La Palice: If he weren't dead, he would still be envied.")
These words were misread (accidentally or intentionally) as "...il ſerait [serait] encore en vie" ("...he would still be alive"), where the long s aids in the confusion. In the 16th century this misreading was incorporated into a popular satirical song, and in time many other variants developed, including "... que deux jours avant sa mort / il était encore en vie" ("... that two days before his death / he was still quite alive") and "... et quand il était tout nu, / il n'avait point de chemise" ("... and when he was stark naked / he didn't wear a shirt").
In the early 18th century, Bernard de la Monnoye collected over 50 of these humorous "La Palice" quatrains and published them as a burlesque "Song of La Palice". From that song came the French term lapalissade meaning an utterly obvious truth—i.e. a truism or tautology, and it was borrowed into several other languages. The French phrase "La Palice en aurait dit autant!" ("La Palice would have said as much!") is used to express that a statement is obvious.

## Similar terms

In Spanish culture, an analog is a folkloric character Pedro Grullo [es] (Perogrullo) with his perogrulladas: "Verdad de Pedro Grullo, que a la mano cerrada, la llama puño" (The truth of Pedro Grullo, when his hand is closed, he calls it a fist).
In English, Captain Obvious indicates, somewhat pejoratively, that a speaker has said a self-evident truth. Other kinds of trite expressions are "platitude" and "bromide".

# Dowden's Luck

Dowden's Luck is a historic house located at Poolesville, Montgomery County, Maryland, United States. The main house is a 2+1⁄2-story, late Federal-style frame house. Major additions were made in 1855 and 1910. Also on the property are a one-story gable-roofed stone slave quarters, a one-story gable-roofed brick smokehouse, a stone spring house, and the foundations of two barns, all built during the 1824-1850 plantation period. An overgrown terraced garden in its original configuration as constructed around 1855 stands to the west of the house. Dowden's Luck was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.
# Philip Wright (cricketer)

# Engineering mathematics

Mathematical engineering (or engineering mathematics) is a branch of applied mathematics, concerning mathematical methods and techniques that are typically used in engineering and industry. Along with fields like engineering physics and engineering geology, both of which may belong in the wider category engineering science, engineering mathematics is an interdisciplinary subject motivated by engineers' needs both for practical, theoretical and other considerations outside their specialization, and to deal with constraints to be effective in their work.

## Description

Historically, engineering mathematics consisted mostly of applied analysis, most notably: differential equations; real and complex analysis (including vector and tensor analysis); approximation theory (broadly construed, to include asymptotic, variational, and perturbative methods, representations, numerical analysis); Fourier analysis; potential theory; as well as linear algebra and applied probability, outside of analysis. These areas of mathematics were intimately tied to the development of Newtonian physics, and the mathematical physics of that period. This history also left a legacy: until the early 20th century subjects such as classical mechanics were often taught in applied mathematics departments at American universities, and fluid mechanics may still be taught in (applied) mathematics as well as engineering departments.
The success of modern numerical computer methods and software has led to the emergence of computational mathematics, computational science, and computational engineering (the last two are sometimes lumped together and abbreviated as CS&E), which occasionally use high-performance computing for the simulation of phenomena and the solution of problems in the sciences and engineering. These are often considered interdisciplinary fields, but are also of interest to engineering mathematics.
Specialized branches include engineering optimization and engineering statistics.
Engineering mathematics in tertiary education typically consists of mathematical methods and models courses.
# Memories with Maya

Memories with Maya is a hard science fiction novel by the author Clyde Dsouza. It has been received well by the transhumanism and the science community. The novel looks at how augmented reality and AI will merge to augment human beings in ways that will affect emotions, intimate human relationships, and our evolution as a species.

## Plot

The story is a first person narrative told through the eyes of protagonist Daniel (Dan). Dan lives life on his own terms, convinced that he can hack his destiny through the use of technology to better his condition. He believes that prayer is panacea for the weak and he can steer the course of his life through the use of logic, technology and science.
With his close friend Krish, they merge artificial intelligence and augmented reality technology to create the Wizer, a wearable visor much like Google Glass but powered by artificial general intelligence. The Wizer plays a key role in advancing the story and has uses in entertainment, sports, and even cyber sex via Dirrogates (a portmanteau of the words Digital and Surrogate, invented by the author)
Midway through the story a dark side of Wizer technology and augmented reality comes to the front, with a major tragedy occurring in a nightclub. It changes the course of Dan and Krish's life. Dan experiences a loss that challenges him in no uncertain terms to prove he is capable of hacking his destiny. He faces internal turmoil, battling moral and ethical issues to emerge a transhuman, both in mind and body.

## Reception

The Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies has featured the novel on their list of publications
A writer for the IEET wrote an essay titled: Till Death do us part - The ethics and evolution of human relationships that interprets the reach of the technology described in the book and its effect on human relationships, even after death.

Que Sera Sera is the fourth studio album by Johnny Thunders, former lead guitarist of the New York Dolls and The Heartbreakers, released in December 1985. Unlike previous efforts So Alone and In Cold Blood, only one song on the album features members of his former bands, and Thunders instead relied largely on the reggae-influenced rhythm section of session musicians Keith George Yon and Tony St. Helene, nicknamed the Black Cats, and also features contributions from Dr. Feelgood guitarist Wilko Johnson, long-term collaborator Patti Palladin, and members of Hanoi Rocks.
The original 1985 release of the album had ten songs. On later pressings, other songs from the sessions were added, "Que Sera, Sera", "Cool Operator (Black Cat Remix)" and Thunders' own remix of the opening track, "Short Lives", which replaced the original mix as opener of the album. "Que Sera, Sera" was first released as a single (7" and 12"), backed with Thunders' remix of "Short Lives". "Tie Me Up" was earlier released as B-side to the Johnny Thunders and Patti Palladin single, a cover of Elvis Presley's song "Crawfish" in 1985.

# George Howe (attorney)

George Howe (July 4, 1824 – February 21, 1888) was a Vermont attorney and politician. Howe was most notable for his service as United States Attorney for the District of Vermont from 1861 to 1864 and a member of the Vermont Senate from 1874 to 1875.

## Biography

George Howe was born in Vernon, Vermont on July 4, 1824, the son of Ebenezer Howe Jr. and Lydia (Fowler) Howe. He was educated in Vernon, and studied law with Judge Asa Keyes of Brattleboro. In 1845, he began attendance at Harvard Law School, and he received his ll.b. degree in 1847. Howe completed his legal studies in the office of William Czar Bradley in Westminster. He was admitted to the bar in 1847, and practiced in Brattleboro.
Howe spent several years in California in the late 1840s and early 1850s before returning to Brattleboro to reestablish his law practice. A Republican, he served as Windham County's State's Attorney from 1858 to 1860. In 1861, he was appointed United States Attorney for the District of Vermont, and he served until 1864. Howe represented Windham County in the Vermont Senate from 1874 to 1875, and he was a delegate to the 1876 Republican National Convention.
In 1880, Howe accepted a federal government position as a pension examiner, which required him to travel throughout New England to verify the details of applications and adjudicate claims. In the last years of his life, Howe's health began to fail and he retired to Vernon.

## Death and burial

Howe died in Vernon on February 21, 1888. He was buried at North Vernon Cemetery in Vernon.

## Family

In 1850, Howe married Mary Ann Willard (1824-1905) of Westminster. They were the parents of a son, George E. Howe (1862-1920), who graduated from Harvard College and Harvard Law School and became a successful attorney in Boston.
# Samuel Balto

Samuel Johannesen Balto (May 5, 1861 – 1921) was a Northern Saami explorer and adventurer. Balto skied with Fridtjof Nansen across Greenland in 1888–89.

## Biography

Samuel Johannesen Balto was born in Karasjok Municipality in Finnmark county, Norway. He had worked as a lumberjack, as well as in reindeer herding and fishing. In 1888, Balto was recruited by Fridtjof Nansen for Nansen's Trans-Greenland Expedition. Balto participated in the first recorded crossing of the interior of Greenland, together with Nansen and four other expedition members. Balto wrote his own book after the expedition: Med Nansen over Grønlandsisen i 1888 – Min reise fra Sameland til Grønland.
In 1898, Balto moved to Alaska and signed a two-year contract as a reindeer herder. In 1900, he led a large group of Sámi hired as reindeer herdsmen during the Lapland-Yukon Relief Expedition later known as the Manitoba Expedition. Samuel Balto, together with 113 other people from Finnmark were hired by Sheldon Jackson to be involved in the introduction of reindeer in Alaska. Jackson promoted a plan to import reindeer from Russia to introduce reindeer husbandry to the Inupiaq as a solution to their loss of subsistence resources. The group was responsible for transporting goods and mail from Nome, Alaska, to gold mining workers up the Yukon River valley in the central parts of Alaska. Eventually Samuel Balto became a gold miner at Nome, Alaska, during the Klondike Gold Rush. Balto staked three claims at a site which became known as Balto Creek.
Samuel Johannesen Balto died in 1921 in Karasjok. Balto, the Alaskan sled dog made famous during the 1925 serum run to Nome, which transported diphtheria medication across the U.S. territory of Alaska to combat an epidemic, was named in his honor.

# James Pratt Funeral Service

The James Pratt Funeral Service was a historic house at 69 Farmington Avenue in Hartford, Connecticut. Built in 1860, it was one of the few surviving mid-19th-century houses on a once-residential stretch of that street. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979. It was subsequently demolished, and the property is now part of the Aetna campus.

## Description and history

69 Farmington Avenue was located on the south side of Farmington Avenue, between Flower Street and the main building of Aetna's corporate campus, an area now occupied by parking lots that are part of that campus. The house was two stories in height, built of brick and covered by a flat roof with an extended eave in the Italianate style. Second-floor windows were framed by Italianate hoods with drip moulding brackets supporting gabled pediments, an echo of decorations that probably also originally adorned other windows. A modern single-story porch extended across the front facade, sheltering ground-floor windows that were elongated in the Greek Revival style.
The house was built about 1860, and was at the time of its listing on the National Register one of only two houses to survive from that period on Farmington Avenue, which was at one time lined by many such houses. The building was converted to non-residential uses as the area became increasingly commercial. It was subsequently demolished as part of an expansion of the Aetna campus.

# Rimae Secchi

Rimae Secchi is a system of rilles on the Moon, in northwestern Mare Fecunditatis. They are approximately 40 km long and run along the shore of the mare.
Rimae Secchi are named after the nearby crater Secchi which, in turn, is named after an Italian astronomer Angelo Secchi. The name of the rilles was approved by the International Astronomical Union in 1985. In 1974, the name Fossae Secchi was proposed on a map published by the US Defense Mapping Agency, but this name was not adopted (on the Moon, the term Rima is traditionally used instead of Fossa). Before this, during preparation to Apollo 8 and 10 flight, the rilles were informally nicknamed Apollo Rille.
The northern end of Rimae Secchi is Y-shaped, and the southern part consists of several separate troughs. Rimae Secchi run along the northwestern rim of a ghost crater (lava-filled crater) of approximately 85 km diameter. The rilles are centered at 1°00′N 44°06′E﻿ / ﻿1.0°N 44.1°E﻿ / 1.0; 44.1.
The northern part of Rimae Secchi is surrounded with a dark halo, probably pyroclastic deposits like volcanic ash. Such deposits are common near the edges of lunar maria, including several areas in Mare Fecunditatis.
To see this feature, a telescope with an aperture of 20 cm or larger is needed.
# Rüdiger Müller

Rüdiger Müller (born 13 February 1955) is a German fencer. He competed in the individual and team sabre events for East Germany at the 1980 Summer Olympics.
