Stefan Darius Mikkosovich Cassadine

2010-03-16T22:33:49-07:00

Stefan Darius Mikkosovich Cassadine[10] is a fictional character played by actor Stephen Nichols from July 1996 until October 16, 2003 on the ABC soap opera General Hospital.

Stefan is the second son of villain Mikkos Cassadine — who once attempted to freeze the world with a weather machine in the an infamous 1980s Luke and Laura storyline — and his equally evil wife Helena. The complex and often dark character alternated between playing protective uncle to nephew Nikolas Cassadine and tender would-be lover of Laura Spencer, and his obsessive vendetta against Luke Spencer, whom he blamed for the death of his brother Stavros Cassadine and for his own loss of Laura.

Shannon and information theory

2010-03-11T02:01:50-07:00

Up to and during the 1930s, electrical engineers were able to build electronic circuits to solve mathematical and logic problems, but most did so in an ad hoc manner, lacking any theoretical rigor. This changed with Claude Elwood Shannon’s publication of his 1937 master’s thesis, A Symbolic Analysis of Relay and Switching Circuits. While taking an undergraduate philosophy class, Shannon had been exposed to Boole’s work, and recognized that it could be used to arrange electromechanical relays (then used in telephone routing switches) to solve logic problems. This concept, of utilizing the properties of electrical switches to do logic, is the basic concept that underlies all electronic digital computers, and his thesis became the foundation of practical digital circuit design when it became widely known among the electrical engineering community during and after World War II.

Wiener and Cybernetics

2010-03-11T02:01:37-07:00

From experiments with anti-aircraft systems that interpreted radar images to detect enemy planes, Norbert Wiener coined the term cybernetics from the Greek word for “steersman.” He published “Cybernetics” in 1948, which influenced artificial intelligence. Wiener also compared computation, computing machinery, memory devices, and other cognitive similarities with his analysis of brain waves.

The first computer bug

2010-03-11T02:01:25-07:00

The first actual computer bug was a moth. It was stuck in between the relays on the Harvard Mark II.[1] While the invention of the term ‘bug’ is often but erroneously attributed to Grace Hopper, a rear admiral in the U.S. Navy, who supposedly logged the “bug” on September 9, 1945, most other accounts conflict at least with these details. According to these accounts, the actual date was September 9, 1947 when operators filed this ‘incident’ — along with the insect and the notation “First actual case of bug being found” (see software bug for details).

History

2010-03-10T20:11:34-07:00

Henry F. Durant, who founded Dana Hall, had established a college and discovered that many of his students needed further preparation before entering college. To address this need, Charles P. Dana, a Wellesley businessman, gave Durant a building to use for housing students in a new preparatory school; this served as the first site for Dana Hall School.
