Judy Bolyard Purdy. "Radical Differences," http://www.ovpr.uga.edu/researchnews/spring98/radical.html. From Research magazine, Spring 1998. "A recent UGA study may help explain why African-American men have a much higher incidence of heart disease than Caucasian men. Randall Tackett, a professor of clinical and administrative sciences in the UGA College of Pharmacy, has studied the differences between blood vessels of African Americans and Caucasians since 1992.
"His latest study of saphenous vein tissue (a vein in the leg) from male heart bypass patients suggests that blood vessels from African Americans generate almost twice as many free radicals as those from Caucasians. It also may suggest that antioxidants - vitamins C and E and other compounds that scavenge free radicals - have a beneficial role in therapy."
André Tacquet, S.J. / Andre Tacquet / Andreas Tacquet *** Not in Gale
(1612-1660). Belgian mathematician. Catholic, entered Jesuit order in 1629. Crater Tacquet named in his honor.
From http://www.faculty.fairfield.edu/jmac/sj/scientists/tacquet.htm:
Andre Tacquet (1612-1660) was born and died in Antwerp. He studied mathematics under the famous Jesuit mathematician Gregory St. Vincent and later taught mathematics at Louvain and Antwerp. Tacquet was a brilliant mathematician of international repute. His books were frequently reprinted, and several Italian and English editions appeared and were widely used. His Opera mathematica was described by Henry Oldenburg (editor of the Transaction of the Royal Society) as "one of the best books ever written in mathematics.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/tacquet.html
Tacquet's books taught elementary mathematics to many generations of readers. Most of his works were written as textbooks for Jesuit colleges and had no pretensions to originality. His Elementa geometriae was his most popular work going through several editions in the 17th and 18th centuries. The main importance of his Cylindricorum et annularium, on cylinders and rings, was its concern for method. His Opera mathematica was published posthumously and contained many previously printed works, some unprinted works, and his Astronomia. Among the principal mathematicians of his time that he corresponded with were Huygens and Van Schooten.

Peter Guthrie Tait
(1831-1901). Scottish physicist and mathematician. Professor, Edinburgh(from 1860). Instrumental in development of modern mathematical physics; helped develop quaternions. Investigated properties of ozone, the foundations of the kinetic theory of gases, thermoelectricity and thermal conductivity, etc. His publications included Elementary Treatise on Quaternions (1867), Introduction to Quaternions (with Philip Kelland, 1873), Natural Philosophy (vol. 1 with Lord Kelvin, 1867), The Unseen Universe (1875), and Paradoxical Philosophy (both with Balfour Stewart, 1878).

Jean Tarde *** Not in Gale
(c. 1561-1636). French cartographer, astronomer, geographer, optician. Catholic, an ordained priest.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/tarde.html
Tarde embraced Copernicanism. He set up an observatory to observe sunspots--which he was convined were bodies orbiting the sun, and which he named the Bourbon stars. He not only mapped his area, but he studied its geography, including the location of a city of Gaul which Caesar destroyed. He wrote a theoretical work on the telescope. Tarde mapped the neighboring diocese for the Bishop of Cahors in 1606. In compliance with the Bishop's request that he explain the small quadrant he was using, he wrote Les usages du quadrant ŕ l'esquille aymantée (1616), which he then dedicated to the Bishop. Henry IV named Tarde his Almoner (or military chaplain) in 1599. Tarde mistakenly identified sunspots as planets which he named after the French royal family, dedicating the book about them to the Bourbons, in the same manner as the Medician stars.
Niccolň Tartaglia / Niccolň Tartaleo / Niccolň Tartaia / Niccolň Fontana Tartaglia
(c. 1499-1557). Italian mathematician, mechanic, cartographer. Pioneered work on ballistics and falling bodies, and was the first to apply mathematics to the solution of artillery problems. Adopted nickname Tartaglia, i.e. Stammerer, as surname; mathematics teacher at Venice (1534-48, 1550-57) and Brescia (1548-49); credited with discovery (1535) ofthe solution of the cubic equation, later published by G. Cardano (q.v.) as his own (1545). Wrote Nova scientia (1537) on gunnery; Quesiti et inventioni diverse (1546) on ballistics and algebraic problems; Trattato di numeri et misure (1556-60) on elementary mathematics; translations of Euclid and Archimedes, etc.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/tartalia.html
His name is linked with the solution of third-degree equations. His other contributions concern fundamentals of arithmetic, numerical calculations, extraction of roots, rationalization of denominators, combinatorial analysis. One of the first publishers of Archimedes, he produced an edition of William of Moerbeke's 13th-century Latin version of some of Archimedes's work. He also translated Euclid into Italian.
He published Nova Scientia in 1537, announcing a "new" mathematical way of treating motion, especially of projectiles. His Quesiti ed inventioni diverse dealt with algebraic and geometric material and, and such varied subjects as the firing of artillery, cannonballs, the disposition of infantry, topographical surveying, and statics.
Tartaglia was invited to Milan in 1539; the visit led to the quarrel with Ferrari and their public exchange of mathematical challenges and responses. For failing to cite his debt to Jordanus in the Quesiti, Tartaglia was denounced for plagiary in Ferrari.
In his ballistic studies he proposed new ideas, methods, and instruments, important among which are "firing tables". He had various proposals on fortifications. He suggested two instruments for determining inaccessible heights and distances, the first telemeters. He developed a specific form the the compass, or better, the housing in which it was set, that made it more useful in surveying.
He corresponded with Cardano for a time, and he had the famous mathematical contest with Ferrari. Since it hinged on the discovery of the solution to cubic equations, it may have been the first priority dispute.

Bernardino Telesio
(1509-1588). Italian philosopher. Known particularly for his De rerum natura juxta propria principia (first 2 books, 1565; complete 9 books, 1586); revolted against medieval Aristotelianism; advocated empirical method; called "first of the moderns" by Francis Bacon.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/telesio.html
http://www.ildiogene.it/EncyPages/Ency=Telesio.html (in Italian)
http://www.phil-fak.uni-duesseldorf.de/philo/galerie/neuzeit/teles.htm (in German)
"Francis Bacon, who was influenced by Telesio, called him 'the first of the moderns' based on the fact that Telesio placed emphasis on actual experience in the study of nature. When this work was written a new spirit of freedom of thought was resulting in the questioning of the rigid doctrines of Aristotelianism, Telesio being amongst the earliest, the most vociferous, and the best educated in the classical languages, to make this challenge. Not long after his death, however, this freedom of thought was considered a challenge to the Church and Telesio's work was put on the Index. 'Telesio also introduced concepts of space and time that anticipated the absolute space and time of Newtonian physics ... [He] also held that time would continue to flow on even though no motion were observed by man or even existed. He thus broke away from Aristotle's conception of place as the surface of the containing body and of time as the measure of motion' (DSB)."
Willem Ten Rhyne / Willem Ten Rhijne *** Not in Gale
(1647-1700). Dutch physician, botanist, pharmacologist. Jewish Calvinist.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/tenrhyne.html
After his M.D. Ten Rhyne published on gout in 1669. While in Japan he studied the tea plant and other plants. Earlier he had studied the plants at the Cape of Good Hope, where he stopped en route to the East Indies. He published on all of these. Eventually he collaborated with Adriaan van Reede tot Drakestein on a twelve volume Hortus Malabaricus. Ten Rhijne published a classic work on leprosy in 1687, and a work which was Europe's real introduction to acupuncture. His work on plants seems always to have had their pharmacological uses at least partly in mind.
Carole Thaxton, M.D.
Medical doctor. Educator. Co-author of KONOS Curriculum Unit Studies. Because of so many preconceived ideas, she resisted Christianity as the answer until she dared to face God to inquire "What is really true?" As a convinced and committed Christian, she received her B.A. degree in biology and education and later her master's degree in counseling from Syracuse University. Carole's interest in whole person development led her to further academic training in child development and various additional counseling courses. Before meeting Charles at L'Abri in 1971, she worked as a professional counselor at the Devereux Foundation, a treatment center for the emotionally disturbed. She has counseled, taught, and supervised in a variety of educational/developmental settings (residential treatment center, public school, private school, international school, homeschool, and parent cooperatives). In the Atlanta area she teaches writing and biblical psychology courses to teens and leads seminars for homeschooling parents. Carole's forte of education and counseling prepared her not only for homeschooling their own sons but in founding the KONOS ACADEMY OF PRAGUE, an English-speaking Christian worldview school, and for counseling English-speaking families living abroad on parenting and education issues.

Charles B. Thaxton, Ph.D *** Not in Gale
Chemist. Presently, Dr. Thaxton holds a visiting faculty position at Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic. Charles B. Thaxton received his Ph.D. in Chemistry from Iowa State University. He was a Postdoctoral Fellow at Harvard University for two years where he studied the history and philosophy of science. He had a Postdoctoral appointment in Molecular Biology at Brandeis University for three years.
After meeting at L'Abri and marrying in 1971, Charles and his wife Carole incorporated KONOS, Inc. as a teaching, training, counseling center in Cambridge, Massachusetts. After moving to Dallas, where Charles worked with Probe Ministries, the Thaxtons resolved to teach their own children according to the KONOS model of incorporating academic subjects with character development and called their homeschool KONOS ACADEMY. Carole Thaxton and Jessica Hulcy co-authored the popular KONOS CURRICULUM UNIT STUDIES.
While teaching and counseling at the Julian Center in Julian, California, Charles continued to speak to thousands of university students throughout the world. Meanwhile, Carole spoke at hundreds of conferences about how to teach the KONOS way while teaching their own children and leading homeschool coops. Charles' first book The Mystery of Life's Origin (Thaxton, Bradley, Olsen) was translated into Romanian in 1986, which led to his grand entrance into the university lecture halls of Romania after their revolution. Translation of The Mystery of Life's Origin and later The Soul of Science (co-authored with Nancy Pearcey) into several Eastern European languages, led to extensive travel throughout Eastern Europe. The Thaxton family decided to reside in Prague for six years for more intensive ministry within the most atheistic country in Europe-the Czech Republic. In January, 1992 he moved with his family to Prague, Czechoslovakia. During 1992 he held appointments at both the Slovak Technical University in Bratislava, Czechoslovakia and the Biomathematical Institute in Craiova, Romania. After Charles' radical cancer and subsequent amputation, the Thaxtons moved to Fayetteville, GA, still traveling to Eastern Europe about one-fourth of the year.
Dr. Thaxton is President of KONOS Connection, is a non-profit educational organization, incorporated as a 501©3 in 1991. Its purpose is to connect people with their Creator, Jesus Christ, and His perspective on life. Our focus has been within the academic community, giving a well-reasoned perspective on the relationship between Christianity and the various academic disciplines.
KONOS Connection, Fayetteville, Georgia, http://www.konos.org/about.html
He holds memberships in the American Chemical Society, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and is a Fellow of both the American Institute of Chemists and the American Scientific Affiliation.
Co-author: Nancy Randolph Pearcey, Light Through a Prism: A World View Approach to History of Science (Crossway, 1993). He is co-author of The Mystery of Life's Origin and The Soul of Science, and contributor to several books and journals. He was the Academic Editor for a high school biology supplement, Of Pandas and People (Haughton, 1989).

Theodoric de Lucca / Teodorico Borgognoni *** Not in Gale
Theodoric (1205-1298) was a Dominican friar and University-trained both as a surgeon and a physician, a circumstance that was very unusual at the time (Zimmerman & Veith, 1961). Despite working as a surgeon, he eventually became Bishop of Cervia in 1262. In 1267 he completed his Chirurgia or surgical textbook, which Theodoric stated was based on the teachings of [his father] Hugh. Theodoric's treatise contains a range of information such as different types of surgical procedures, management of fractures and dislocations, the best methods of extracting arrows and Hugh's principles of wound management. Both Hugh and Theodoric condemned the doctrine of 'laudable pus'. Theodoric considered that it hindered nature and prolonged healing (Zimmerman & Veith, 1961). Edwards (1976) described Theodoric as a medieval antiseptic surgeon who was unfairly denigrated by some of his colleagues and his successors. The School of Surgery at Bologna University was founded around the end of the 12th Century by Theodoric and his father, Hugh of Lucca (1160-1257).

Melchisédech Thévenot *** Not in Gale
(c. 1620-1692). French pharmacologist, instrument-maker, physicist, scientific communicator and organizer.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/thevenot.html
Thévenot was one of the important correspondents linking Paris to the European scientific world. He organized his own academy in the early 60's, and he influenced the founding of the French Academy of Sciences.
His only notable direct contribution to science was in instrumentation: a bubble level, originally designed in 1661. The level was filled with alcohol and mounted on a stone ruler fitted with a viewing lens. His design did not come into common use until the mid-eighteenth century with the development of improved construction techniques. From 1658-61 he conducted experiments on capillarity and the siphon. He made various astronomical and magnetic studies aided by Petit, Auzout, Frenicle de Bessy, and Huygens. In the 1660's he demonstrated the possibility that atmospheric pulsations had something to do with human and animal respiration. His most famous work was his collection of translations of voyages of discovery, Relations de divers voyages curieus, (Paris, 1663-72).
Member: Académie Royal des Sciences, 1685-92. At the meetings of the Académie he discussed the use of lemon juice as a medicinal cure and ipecac as useful in treating dysentary. He attended Montmor's meeting at least as early as 1658. After about 1662 he provided occasions for additional meetings and experimentation in his country house at Issy, several miles south of Paris. There he supported the mathematician Frenicle de Bessy, the Danish anatomist Nils Stensen, and a chemical demonstrator. He held his meetings until 1665 when a lack of funds for apparatus and experimentation hindered his work--or perhaps when the organization of the Académie forcefully disbanded the so called Academy Thévenot.
About 1663 or 1664 a group that included him, Auzout, and Petit proposed a plan for a new academy of scientists. The proposed Compagnie would perform experiments and make observations for the perfection of the sciences and the arts and, in general, to search for all that can bring utility to the human race, and particularly to France. His utilitarian project for a compagnie des sciences et des arts was quite different from the one proposed by Charles Perrault. The Academy of Sciences that emerged in 1666 was more in Perrault's design than in his. He finally became a member of the Academy in 1685.
Throughout the 1660's and 1670's he maintained a wide correspondence with numerous persons. Much of it related his translation and publication of voyages of discovery, Relation de divers voyages. His intimate friends included Huygens, Oldenburg, A. Auzuot, and numerous other mid-seventeenth-century personages.
Isabella Thoburn
(1840-1901) Educator and missionary to India. In 1869 the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church was founded in Boston, Mass., and under its auspices, on Nov. 3, accompanied by Dr. Clara A. Swain [q.v.], she sailed for India, arriving in Bombay on Jan. 7, 1870. The city of Lucknow in Oudh became the center of her activities. Into the education of the girls and young women of India she threw herself with zeal and courage. On Apr. 18, in Aminabad bazaar, she began a school with six girls and herself the only teacher, while a Christian youth guarded the group with a stout bamboo. From a day school it developed into a boarding school, then into a high school, and finally into a college for women-now the Isabella Thoburn College, the women's college of Lucknow University. Buying the beautiful estate of the Ruby Garden (Lal Bagh) with its seven acres from a Mohammedan nobleman of the old kingdom of Oudh, she erected her buildings. The college that came into being was for Indian and Eurasian, Hindu, Mohammedan, and Christian alike; no religious or racial prejudice was to mar its peace and fellowship.-Oscar MacMillan Buck.

"Church work is not just form and ritual. My family life is characterized by growing in love and understanding. Having a personal relationship with Jesus has become the center of my life, and He gives inner peace that I could not get from any other source."
Evangelista Torricelli
(1608-1647). Italian mathematician and physicist. Served at Florence as amanuensis to Galileo (1641-42); succeeded Galileo as mathematician to grand duke of Tuscany and professor at Florentine Academy (1642). Improved telescope; discovered principle of the barometer and devised earliest form of the instrument (1643); worked on the cycloid; published Opera Geometrica (1644). His work in geometry aided in the eventual development of integral calculus. He refined the method of indivisibles introduced by Bonaventura Cavalieri.
As a scientist, Evangelista Torricelli became well known for his study of the motion of fluids, and was declared the father of hydrodynamics by Ernst Mach. Torricelli also conducted experiments on gases, though the term was not then in use. Most notably, Torricelli settled an argument about the nature of gases and the existence of the vacuum. Aristotle believed that a vacuum could not exist. Though Galileo disagreed, he contended that the action of suction (in a water pump, for example) was produced by a vacuum itself and not by the pressure of the air pushing on the liquid being pumped. Despite his argument, Torricelli noticed that water could be pumped only a finite distance through a vertical tube before it ceased to move any further and set out to examine this paradox, inventing the first barometer in the process.

Richard Towneley *** Not in Gale
(1629-1707). English natural philosopher, physicist, astronomer, meteorologist, instrument-maker.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/towneley.html
In addition to his general interest in Cartesian philosophy, his role in Boyle's law (an investigation carried out with Henry Power), and his astronomical observations, Towneley carried out extended meteorological measurements and improved the micrometer (for use in astronomical observations). He introduced Flamsteed to the micrometer. As an astronomer he perpetuated the tradition of observation established in that region earlier by Horrocks, Crabtree, and Gascoigne. He also investigated capillary phenomena and the use of the barometer to measure altitudes. Towneley constructed a carriage that passed smoothly over rough roads.
He improved on Gascoigne's crude micrometer.
Informal connections: Influenced and encouraged by his uncle, Christopher Towneley, and like his uncle earlier, he gathered a circle around him which included Henry Power and his brothers. Close friendship with René Francoise Sluse. He corresponded with the Royal Society, and with Boyle and Flamsteed.
Charles H. Townes
(Born 1915). Charles Townes is generally considered the American inventor of the maser (an acronym for microwave amplification by the stimulated emission of radiation), an honor he shares with two Russian scientists, Aleksandr Prokhorov and Nikolai Basov. The microwave theories he introduced and pursued throughout the 1960s paved the way for such advances as the modern laser.
F. Mark Townsend / Francis Mark Townsend *** Not in Gale
Chemical engineer. Boyd Professor Emeritus, Chemical
Engineering, University of Oklahoma. F.
Mark Townsend served as a captain in the U.S. Army during World War II,
receiving a Purple Heart. During the Allied invasion of Normandy, Capt.
Townsend was hit by German mortar fire, which injured three of his limbs. After
17 operations, he returned to the University of Oklahoma in the fall of 1947,
after having learned to write with his left hand. He went on to complete the
bachelor of science degree that had been interrupted by his induction to the
Army. He then earned a master's degree and was one of the first graduates to
receive a doctoral degree in chemical engineering from OU.
Before he retired in 1983, Townsend taught for 28 years as a Professor in OU's School of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science. He made impressive strides in research while at OU. During his graduate studies, he produced the fundamental data that established TEG as the most effective absorbent for dehydrating natural gas mixtures over a full range of field operating pressures. Today it is used to dehydrate the largest part of all natural gas going to market in the world. In 1952, he discovered a chemical reaction which developed into sour-gas treating processes. To date, the Townsend process has been used under license to IFP. In addition, Townsend's research project for the U.S. Air Force on contamination of JP-5 jet fuel put an end to a rash of mid-air explosions. He also developed a unique water exhaustion technique that is now used in the petroleum industry to produce 100 percent glycols for super-dehydration of gas.
F. Mark Townsend was elected to the University of Oklahoma College of Engineering Distinguished Graduates Society in 1999.

Bruno Tozzi *** Not in Gale
(1656-1743). Italian botanist, natural historian. Catholic.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/tozzi.html
Tozzi was deeply interested in botany. He collected on his travels for the order, and between 1700 and 1725 he went on many excursions with Micheli, whose teacher and then friend he was. He became good at watercolors in depicting plants. He was especially interested in fungi, lichens, algae, and bryophytes. Tozzi published nothing during his life, but he nevertheless established a reputation among the naturalists (and especially botanists) of all Europe, and he was an important figure in the science of botany. (Saccardo lists a publication of 1703, which others deny to have existed.) Especially in his old age he also collected information on birds and insects. His Sylva fungorum, a manuscript, is preserved in the Bibliotheca nazionale in Florence.
He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society. He was close to other naturalists in his order, and close to Micheli, whom he taught initially and then collaborated with. He shared his collections and drawings with William Sherard; he carried on active correspondence with Boerhaave, James Petiver, Hans Sloane, and Micheli.
With Micheli he founded the Societŕ Botanica Fiorentina. He entered the order of the monks of Vallombroso on 14 May 1676. He eventually became abbot of the house at Vallombroso and procurator general of the order in Rome.
John Tradescant (I)
(c. 1570 or 1575-1638). English naturalist, botanist. Naturalist and gardener to Charles I; collected plants and other natural history objects. Anglican. His son (1608-1662) succeeded to post of royal gardener (1638); added to his father's collection. The collection passed to Elias Ashmole and formed the basis of Oxford's Ashmolean Museum.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/tradscnt_jo1.html
The two John Tradescants, father and son, were skilled gardeners with minimal claims to be considered scientists. However, the elder John Tradescant collected everything curious in natural history--minerals, birds, fish, insects, as well as coins, medals, and miscellaneous curiosities. Plantarum in horto Johannum Tradescanti nasentium catalogus, 1634. As gardeners, he and his son introduced a number of new plants into England.
Gardener to the Earl of Salisbury, 1610-14, (mostly at Hatfield, but also at Cranborne in Dorset and at Salisbury House in London). Salisbury sent him on expeditions to the continent to purchase vines, trees, plants, and flowers for Hatfield House. Salisbury (Robert Cecil) died in 1612; Tradescant continued with the heir until 1614-15. Gardener to Edward Lord Wotton at Canterbury in Kent, c.1615-23. During this time he joined Sir Dudley Digges' embassy to Russia as a botanist, and brought home some plants. In 1620 he joined an expedition against the Barbary corsairs. Gardener to the Duke of Buckingham, c.1624-8. He accompanied Buckingham's expedition to La Rochelle in 1628. Buckingham arranged for Tradescant to hold the sinecure of yeoman garnetter at the Whitehalff granary.
Informal Connections: He set up the first botanical garden and museum in England and attracted many naturalists and botanists. Connection with the French gardeners, Jean and Vespasien Robin and René Morin.
English gardener and botanist who travelled widely in Europe
and is thought to have introduced the cos lettuce to England from the Greek
island of that name. He was appointed gardener to Charles I and was succeeded
by his son, John Tradescant the Younger (1608-1662). The younger Tradescant
undertook three plant-collecting trips to Virginia in North America.
The Tradescants introduced many new plants to Britain, including the acacia, lilac, and occidental plane. Tradescant senior is generally considered the earliest collector of plants and other natural-history objects.
In 1604 the elder Tradescant became gardener to the earl of Salisbury, who in 1610 for the first time sent him abroad to collect plants. In 1620 he accompanied an official expedition against the North African Barbary pirates and brought back to England gutta-percha and various fruits and seeds. Later, when he became gardener to Charles I, Tradescant set up his own garden and museum in London. In 1624 he published a catalogue of 750 plants grown in his garden.

John Tradescant (II)
(1608-1662). English natural historian, botanist, agriculturalist. Anglican.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/tradscnt_jo2.html
John Tradescant II and his father introducted a number of new plants into England. Like his father, Tradescant was a skilled gardener, and his claim to be a scientist is minimal. He did make three expeditions to Virginia, and he collected specimens, especially plants, while he was there. Musaeum Tradescantianum, 1656. The collection (originally assembled by John Tradescant I, the father) recorded in this publication passed, after Tradescant's death, through the hands of Ashmole to Oxford, where it bears Ashmole's name rather than Tradescant's.
The Tradescants' collection of specimens formed the nucleus of the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford. Swedish botanist Carolus Linnaeus named the genus Tradescantia (the spiderworts) after the younger Tradescant.

Giovanni Trulli / Trullio / Trullius *** Not in Gale
(1598-1661). Italian-born physician, surgeon. Catholic.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/trulli.html
Trulli was consulted on the blindness of Galileo, and his written opinion in response to Galileo's (lost) description of his symptoms, is the fullest medical document on the blindness. However, he is not wholly lacking in modest scientific credentials even though he never published anything. In connection with the correspondence about Galileo it appears that Trulli had formulated a theory about cataracts. He developed a very high reputation as a surgeon. He proposed to publish a collection of observations and a treatise on aneurisms, although he did not in fact carry through with the plan. Severino carried on a scientific correspondence with him. He became one of the Italian supporters of the circulation of the blood.
Ehrenfried Walther Tschirnhaus *** Not in Gale
(1651-1708). German mathematician, physicist, chemist, instrument-maker. Lutheran.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/tscrnhas.html
Tschirnhaus made a number of technological advances. He is most noted for the techniques of making hard-paste porcellain. It was Böttcher who actually rediscovered the technique, but Tschirnhaus supervised him at every step of the way. He also developed the techniques for polishing minerals and producing large blanks of optical glass. He developed a lens polishing machine. Tschirnhaus clearly saw science as capable of producing certain valuable techniques whose commercial success he sought to harness to support the academy he sought to found.
Member: Académie Royal des Sciences, 1682. After failing to get a paid position at the Acadčmie, Tschirnhaus tried for the rest of his life to get enough support to found a Saxon academy of sciences. His scientific circle included J. "Becker" Hoffman (d. 1703), Mohrendal (d. 1697), Knorr (d. 1699), Paulli, Avon, Schönberg (a noble), and Ohain (a councillor). Tschirnhaus even paid van Gent a salary to act as a correspondent. He was a contributor from the beginning to the "Acta eruditorum" and a member of this circle. Connections: He had strong connections with Spinoza, Oldenburg, Huygens, and Leibnitz. However, he was eventually also on bad terms with Leibnitz, Fatio de Dullier, Huygens, La Hire, and Jacob I and Johann I Bernoulli--mostly for publishing their discoveries as his own.

Marquis Who's Who, 2004.
William Tuke *** Not in Gale
(1732-1822). A leading philanthropist, William Tuke pioneered a family dynasty dedicated to the care of the insane. He was born into a leading York Society of Friends (Quaker) family, and entered the family tea and coffee merchant business at an early age. When one of the 'Friends' died in the squalid and inhumane conditions of the York Asylum, Tuke was appalled by what he saw there, and brought his appeal to revolutionise the treatment of the insane before the Society of Friends in the spring of 1792.
As a result of his appeal he was able, in 1796, to open the York Retreat (co-founded with his son Henry Tuke (1755-1814).) for the humane care of the insane. This was the first of its kind in England, and pioneered new methods of treatment of the mentally ill.

Samuel Tuke *** Not in Gale
(1784-1857). American physician. Son of Henry Tuke. Quaker. He wrote an account in 1813 of the York Retreat, Description of the Retreat, containing a report on the principles of 'moral therapy', which were considered to be the basis of the therapeutic environment there. Written at the request of his father, the work focused on the abuses common in the madhouses of the time, and gave direction to the urgent need for reform. His son, James Hack Tuke, aided in the management of the York Retreat, and later focused on famine relief aid to Ireland.
From http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/historic_figures/tuke_william.shtml
Daniel Hack Tuke *** Not in Gale
(1827-95). American physician. Brother of James Hack Tuke, co-wrote (with John Charles Bucknill) the important treatise, A Manual of Psychological Medicine, in 1858, and became a leading physician, dedicated to the study of insanity. In the 1890s he became an examiner in mental physiology in the University of London and a Lecturer on insanity at Charing Cross Hospital. He was one of the founders and subsequently chairman of the 'After-Care Association,' set up in 1879 to rehabilitate female patients discharged from asylums.
Nicolaas Tulp *** Not in Gale
(1593-1674). Dutch physician, anatomist, pharmacologist, zoologist. Calvinist.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/tulp.html
Tulp's Observationum medicarum libri tres, 1641, contains 228 case histories. He proposed the first pharmacopoeia of the Netherlands and apparently supplied most of its contents. He first described the chimpanzee scientifically. The Amsterdam Medical College was organized to enforce the decree that demanded sole use of Tulp's pharmacopoeia.
Cuthbert Tunstall / Cuthbert Tunstal / Cuthbert Tonstall
(1474-1559). English mathematician, prelate and scholar. Friend of Erasmus and More; employed by Henry VIII and Wolsey on diplomatic missions to emperor (1515-21); master of rolls (1516-22); bishop of London (1522-30); keeper of privy seal (1523); succeeded Wolsey as bishop of Durham (1530). Adhered to Roman Catholic dogma but acquiesced in royal supremacy; voted against first act of uniformity (1549); accused of inciting to rebellion and deprived (1552); restored under Mary (1553), refrained from persecution of Protestants. On accession of Elizabeth, refused oath of supremacy and declined to consecrate Matthew Parker as archbishop of Canterbury, and was deprived (1559). Catholic.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/tunstall.html
Tunstall was an outstanding classical scholar, the friend of both Thomas More and Erasmus. He assisted Erasmus in the preparation of the second edition as his Greek New Testament. He was primarily an official, however, both in the government of England and in the administration of the church. He composed a number of religious works. De arte supputandi is the first book on arithmetic published in England, based on Pacioli's Suma.. Compiled from the works of others, the book does not make any claim of originality.
Informal Connections: Close friendship with Thomas More, Linacre, and the whole circle of English humanists, and with Erasmus. Tunstall did not accept the Protestant Reformation. He did temporize with the murderous issue of royal supremacy and held on to his position under both Henry and Edward. He was finally deprived of his position at the end of Edward's reign, was restored under Mary, and then deprived again under Elizabeth less than two months before his death.
J.J. O'Connor and E.F. Robertson. "Cuthbert Tunstall," http://www-gap.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Mathematicians/Tunstall.html: Tunstall also has the distinction of having the Grynaeus's edition, being the first printed edition, of Euclid's Elements in Greek dedicated to him.
Peter Turner *** Not in Gale
(1586-1652). English mathematics scholar. Anglican. Son of William Turner.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/turner_pet.html
Fellow of Merton College, Oxford, 1607-48; Professor of geometry at Gresham College, 1620-30; Savilian Professor of Geometry at Oxford, 1630-48.
Turner left no writings. He was known more as a Latinist and linguist. He held two chairs in mathematics, and was said by Wood, for whatever his opinion counts on this subject, to be a learned mathematician.

Theodore Turquet de Mayerne *** Not in Gale
(1573-1655). Swiss-born physician, iatrochemist, entomologist, pharmacologist, chemist.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/turquet.html
Theodore Beza was Turquet's godfather. Turquet resisted efforts to convert him in France. Religion was the ultimate reason for his move to England following the assassination of Henry IV.
Though he was not a prominent scientific figure in his own right, he was influencial in the introduction and support of chemical therapy in medicine. After 1597, Turquet went to Paris and became the protegé of Jean Ribit [Riverius], his teacher at Montpellier and the chief physician to Henry IV. Both Ribit and Turquet endorsed the use of chemical remedies in their practice and fostered the training of apothecaries in the preparation of new medicants. Turquet gave lectures to whatever students would come, which included mostly surgeons and apothecaries.
His advocacy of iatrochemistry embroiled him in a bitter polemic with the Paris Faculty of Medicine. His opposition wrote the Apologia pro medicina Hippocratis & Galeni, contra Mayernium & Quercetanum, in which G. Heron, Dean of the Faculty of Medicine, wrote a few paragraphs in support of the diatribe against Turquet and his colleagues. Turquet responded with a written defense of chemical therapy (also titled Apologia). Subsequent attacks from the opposition were instigated by Riolan Sr. and led to the censuring of Turquet. Since by 1603 Turquet had the position of a royal physician, the official censure of the Faculty did not effect his practice at court. However, he ultimately left for England.
He served on the committee that produced the Pharmacopoeia Londonensis in 1618. He was the first in England to establish definitively the clinical study of medicine and recording observations as in "case studies."
The year after receiving a fourteen year monopoly for the production of distilled spirits and vinegars in London he published The Distiller of London. In 1644 he published Prophylactica, a set of precautions for the plague. Among his other writings are travel logs and a culinary guide to French cooking. In fact, Turquet did not contribute greatly to medicine, but after his death a number of his writings were published posthumously, especially Mayernii opera medica. He was the editor of Mouffet's posthumous book on insects; the prefatory epistle indicates that he had considerable knowledge of the subject.
Turquet endorsed and helped introduce Paracelsian chemical remedies. He brought calomel into use. He was the first to prepare mercurial lotion (black wash). He had a hand in the Pharmacopaeia Londonensis, 1618. About half of his posthumous Opera medica is devoted to a pharmacopoeia. He also developed pigments and enamels, especially the purple necessary for carnations tints in enamels. Among his friends were several artists, Rubens, Van Dyke, Peter Lely, and Jean Petitot. He composed a manuscript treatise on pigments for painters.
In 1616 he was elected fellow to the Royal College of Physicians. Upon his death he bequethed his library to this organization.

David Tyler has a background in the physical sciences with a BSc in Physics from Southampton University (1968) and an MSc in physics, by research, from Loughborough University (1972). He gained a Ph.D. in the area of management science from the University of Manchester (1990). His involvement with the Apparel industry began when he sought to analyse industrial problems from the physicist's perspective (1968-1976, Hatra, Nottingham). This led to employment within the industry, initially as a technologist and then as a manager (1976-1979, Courtaulds Ltd., Coventry). After joining the Department of Clothing Design and Technology at Manchester Metropolitan University, he has pursued a number of research interests related to responsive manufacturing and systems modelling. Earlier work was concerned with flow line systems and management strategies to optimise performance. Research interests over the past decade relate to teamworking in new product development and its relation to operational practices, and the optimisation of performance of textile/apparel supply chains. Since March 2000, he has managed the North West Advanced Apparel Systems Centre, a European-funded initiative to support clothing and textile companies in NW England.

Edward Tyson
1650-1708. English physician, anatomist, natural historian. Practiced in London (from 1677). Pioneered in comparative anatomy; compared human and simian similarities and differences in Orang-Outang (1699). Anglican.
The Galileo Project, http://galileo.rice.edu/Catalog/NewFiles/tyson.html
In Oxford Tyson became interested in natural history. His manuscripts contain considerable material on this study, including detailed descriptions of a number of plants and of such species as the sea-anenome. Tyson published more than two dozen articles in the Philosophical Transactions on anatomy, natural history, morbid anatomy and pathology. He was a pioneer in correlating post mortem dissections with specific diseases. He discovered the "Tyson glands" in the penis.
He was a leader in comparative anatomy: Phocaena, or the Anatomy of a Porpess, 1680, which contains an extensive discussion of his idea of a natural history of animals based on comparative anatomy. Later he added an anatomy of a rattlesnake and of some other animals. He contributed two descriptions of fish to Willoughby's History of Fishes, 1686. In 1698 an anatomy of a female opossum and in 1704 of a male. 1699: Orang-Outang (a chimpanzee)--this was his most important work. His manuscripts contain many more descriptions and dissections than he found time from his medical practice to publish. Incidentally, he used the microscope in many of his dissections. He also published on medicine in Bartholin's Acta medica.
Informal Connections: Strongly influenced by Plot when he was young; he maintained a correspondence on natural history with Plot until Plot's death. Close relationship with Hooke after 1678. Collaboration with Samuel Collins on his System of Anatomy, and later with William Cowper who collaborated with Tyson in some of Tyson's work. Friendship with the Danish physician Holger Jacobeus. He was part of the Oxford Group and later was elected to the Oxford Philosophical Society in 1686. Member, Royal Society, 1679; Council in 1681 and many later years. Member, Royal College of Physicians, 1683; Censor, 1694.

I think a huge portion of my young adult life was spent wanting to own a pair of Ray-Ban wayfarers. You know, the classic black RB2140s, as they're fondly known by no one? When I finally, at 20, found a job decent enough for me to afford one (even 3!), at roughly Dh800 a pop (at that time), I still didn't feel like I had earned the right to buy them. I'm weird, yes.
Now I'm 27 on some sort of semi-paid sabbatical of a bender (or bender of a sabbatical?), and therefore NOT making that money anymore, and I STILL don't own one. I have, however, broken and lost a TON of cheap frames quite consistently in that time – which has not made it easier on me deciding to invest in a pricier pair.
But I do get invited to Ray-Ban's parties, and for now I'm okay with that much proximity.
I'm so late in posting this because I had some actual real adult work I had to take care of this past week. But last week Ray-Ban teamed up with indie live music hosts, The Other Side to throw a hell of a party for the launch of their latest line of eyewear (which I'm really digging, by the way; can't wait to show you some of the pieces).
Needless to say, we also got to hear som 'wkd' sounds. Not only was it my first time to ANDLounge, which is a really pretty place at The Address Marina; it was also the first time I'd heard of Londoners BIG DEAL.
They're touring this summer, and this is what they sound like:
I know, jump-around-your-room-with-your-hair-loose-because-life-is-going-semi-bummerish music. Or driving in your car music, I guess.
I also like this song:
Anyway, Ray-Ban and The Other Side are at it again in May for this event featuring TELEFERIK. Check it.

The Bridge armchair by Matthew Hilton is a stackable and lightweight dining chair, ideal for rooms which have little space for large dining sets. Accompanying the contemporary Bridge table, the chair is a notably expressive piece encompassing both functional necessity and feeling. Deliberately stackable and lightweight, the Bridge armchair is a great product for restaurants and private dining rooms where chairs are needed to be stored and moved regularly. Equally, the modern design makes the Bridge armchair ideal for homes where additional chairs are often needed when the Bridge table has been extended to its full length. It is available with an oak veneered seat and back with a solid oak frame or a walnut veneered seat and back with a solid walnut frame. The chair has gently tapered legs with an outward facing curvature, creating the signature look of the piece. Dimensions H775 W587 D500 cm H30.51" W23.11" D19.68" inch
Bridge is a notably expressive range, a fine example of British designer Matthew Hilton's ability to imbue his designs with both functional necessity and feeling. The range comprises table, chair and armchair.

From health magazines to Instagram, the clean eating trend is really making a statement. Odds are, those gorgeously-styled foodie photos you see popping up everywhere will be followed by hashtags like #cleaneating or #eatclean.
But what exactly is "clean eating?" Is it healthier? And is everything else dirty eating?
The term "clean eating" is relatively vague; in reality the diet is deceptively simple: Be more mindful of what you consume and focus on whole foods (sometimes called "real" foods) instead of those that are hyper-processed, chemically-edited and made in a factory.
In some sense, the clean eating diet is similar to what you'd call a "whole fomeaods diet" or "raw," simply because of its focus on farm-to-table produce like fresh veggies. Meals that focus on these principles have a tendency to be naturally healthier, due to the omission of chemically-processed additives and the bent toward eating foods as-is, nutrients intact.
What counts as processed foods (AKA not clean)?
Processed foods are usually pretty easy to identify. Processing includes anything that falls under one of these categories:
Foods with ingredient components that you can't pronounce.
Foods with purposeful additions of salt, sugar or fat to enhance flavor unnecessarily, or the addition of preservatives.
Foods that have changed form. Examples: removing wheat germ from grains to create a processed-refined bread, or smashing tomatoes into a jarred sauce. Even steaming your green beans counts.
Ultimate Caveat: Processing is not always bad. Often processing helps us cleanse, manage or store the foods that we buy – canning fruit or freezing berries are great examples of this. There's nothing inherently wrong with steaming your broccoli for dinner. Why? Because it's still broccoli.
If you want to eat clean, processing isn't the ultimate sin, as long as it's minimal; just keep an eye out for foods that are "over-processed," like a chicken pot pie you bought in the frozen foods section at the supermarket or blue box mac-n-cheese. Products like these are often jam-packed with GMOs and other chemicals that have been linked to cancer and infertility and are utterly bankrupt of all the nutrients that your body needs to stay healthy.
Why would you want that?
Another tip? Keep an eye out for products that sound healthy, simply because of marketing wording like "vitamin-enriched" or "sugar-free." Odds are, they accomplished those claims by adding chemical replacements to natural sugars, etc.
How to Eat Clean, Simply
1) Eat tons of fresh fruits and vegetables, and consume them as close to the way nature delivered it as you possibly can. This ensures you are getting all the goodness it has to offer you, without any dangers.
2) Buy foods that are what they say they are. If you can't pronounce the label or it has an ingredient list miles long, don't eat it. You are buying into a false sense of wholesomeness and perpetuating the products of companies who don't care about your health. Opt for fresh produce instead!
3) Learn about the qualities of food and eat accordingly. All foods have naturally-embedded nutritional qualities that will make all the difference in your health. Look for calcium and iron in greens like kale or broccoli, or Vitamin A in the carrots you eat. They are there for you, so seek them out!
4) Avoid processed foods and only tolerate frozen, canned and conventionally-grown products if you know and trust the ingredients. There is nothing inherently wrong with purchasing frozen butternut squash instead of a whole one in the produce aisle (other than the environmental reason). But there's a huge difference between making your own lasagna and eating whatever it is the supermarket is selling. If you're on the go, canned tuna won't kill you; but try to favor fresh fish whenever you can. Watch your labels.
Clean eating isn't the end-all-be-all of diets. But it is certainly a better way to approach food, in that it forces you to truly, deeply consider what it is you eat and why. We hope this inspires you!

TRAIL, BC –The month of January hasn't been so kind to the Penticton Vees and Saturday night wasn't any different, as they Trail Smoke Eaters rallied for a 6-3 come from behind Victory at Cominco Arena.
Trailing 3-2 early in the third period, the Smoke Eaters scored four unanswered, including the game-winner by Ryan Moon with just under four-minutes left, as they beat Penticton for the second time this month. It was a five goal third period for Trail, who started the final frame down 2-1.
Moon, Luke Santerno, Jeremy Lucchini, Josh Laframboise and Kale Howarth all scored in the third period for Trail. Blaine Caton also scored late in the second period, as the Smoke Eaters won their third straight. Linden Marshall picked up the win, stopping 26 of 29 shots and their power-play went two for five.
Griffin Mendel scored his first goal in over a calendar year, and Taylor Ward and Nicholas Jones scored in the second and third period respectively for Penticton, but it wasn't enough, as they dropped their second straight and now are winless in their last four games. Mat Robson was tagged with the loss, stopping 43 of 49 shots.
Mendel scored the only goal in the first period, when he hammered the puck right off a face-off in the Trail end. Matt Gosiewski, who assisted on the Vees' first two goals, won the draw right back to Mendel who blasted the puck past Marshall at 13:05. It was Mendel's first goal since December of 2015, which gave the Vees their first lead since the third period against Salmon Arm last Sunday.
Ward doubled the Vees' lead early in the second with some nifty stick work at the side of the Trail net. Ward grabbed the puck on the goal-line, then put the puck and stick between his legs, lifting the puck up and over Marshall at the post at 1:25; Ward's eighth of the year putting Penticton ahead 2-0.
Despite that goal, the Smoke Eaters had the upper-hand in the frame, peppering Robson with 20-shots but the Vees' netminder did everything in his power to preserve the lead. Trail's pressure paid off late in the frame, as they cut into the Vees' lead on a goal from Blaine Caton.
Spencer McLean smartly tipped the puck ahead to Caton, who came down the right-side with a head full of steam and put a backhand up and over Robson's glove at 18:22; the Vees' lead cut in half heading into the second intermission.
Early in the third the game opened up as the two teams combined for three goals in just one minute.
Luke Santerno tied it for Trail after he took a pass from out of the corner and went post and in past Robson at 4:51; Howarth with the no-luck dish out to Santerno who scored his team-leading 30th. That celebration didn't last long for Trail However.
20-seconds after Santerno scored, Nicholas Jones put the Vees back ahead on a great individual effort down the wing. Jonny Tychonick hit a streaking Jones on the left-wing on a pass from the blue-line, and Jones cut hard to the goal and tucked the puck around the goalie's pad on the far-side at 5:11.
Immediately after that goal the Vees ran into penalty troubled and it cost them. On a five-on-three power-play, Trail's Jeremy Lucchini scored his first of the season on a seeing-eye shot from the blue-line that just got past a screen Robson 40-seconds after Jones' goal to tie it 3-3.
That deadlock wasn't broken until late in the game when Ryan Moon got a favourable bounce. The Trail forward fired a shot from the bottom of the left-circle that caught the top off of Robson's glove and bounced in at 16:08. Not too long after that the Smokies added another one to go up by two.
Josh Laframboise reached out for the pass in the high slot and fired a wrist-shot that that appeared to have either hit a stick or skip in front of Robson, before it shot back up and over his shoulder on his glove-side with just over two-minutes left.
Howarth finished off the third period barrage when tucked in a rebound on another Smokies power-play with just 66-seconds left in the game.
Final Score: 6-3 Smoke Eaters
Shots: 49-29 Trail
Power-Plays: Vees 0-5 Trail 2-5
Three Stars: 1) Blaine Caton 2) Matt Gosiewski 3) Linden Marshall
Vees Notes: Saturday was the Vees sixth straight road loss, as they haven't won away from the SOEC since November 22nd. Mendel's first period goal was his first since December 2nd, 2015 against the Merritt Centennials. Tonight marks just the third time the Vees lost when leading after two periods this season (22-3-0-0). The Vees lead atop of the Interior Division has shrunk down to eight points, as the Vernon Vipers earned a 3-0 win at home Saturday against Nanaimo; the Vees still have two games in hand however.
Penticton (32-12-1-1) heads back out on the road Wednesday when they visit the Merritt Centennials at Nicola Valley Memorial Arena.

I have a strange affinity for capers. I love their briney, tart taste and when cooking with them I often leave a handful out to just nibble on while dinner simmers. My husband, on the other hand, is not at all keen on these little green buds, so he pushes them to the side whenever he sees them in his dish.
I'm pretty sure most people have seen or eaten capers before, but just in case you were curious to know: Capers are the unripened flower buds of Capparis Spinosa, a perennial plant that is native to the Mediterranean and some parts of Asia. Once harvested, the buds are dried in the sun, then pickled in vinegar, brine or salt. According to sources, the caper was used in Ancient Greece as a carminative. Etymologically, the caper and different versions of the word in several European languages can be traced back to the Latin capparis, still some say that that term is in turn borrowed from the Greek κάππαρις. Another theory I read of, links κάππαρις/kápparis to the name of the island of Cyprus (Κύπρος, Kýpros), where capers grow abundantly.
Capers pair well with fish and chicken but I've also used them in a great parsley sauce over a simply roasted cut of beef ... and the results were divine. But I'll save that dish for a later date.
Today, I'm focusing on this chicken dish. I simply took some whole chicken legs (thigh and drumstick attached), dressed them with a lime and caper marinade, then roasted them to perfection. On the side I served a pilaf of rice and Greek Fide (nests of thin pasta--i.e. vermicelli) that I infused with lime.
Kotopoulo Me Kappari --
Chicken Roasted with Capers
4 whole chicken legs, skin on
Juice of one lime
2 tablespoons capers
2 garlic cloves, minced
Hefty pinch of dried Greek oregano
1/2 cup olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons parsley, finely chopped (optional)
Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Place in a roasting pan.
Whisk together the lime juice, capers, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper and then slowly add the oil in a steady stream. Once well combined, pour over the chicken legs and allow the chicken to sit in the marinade for about half hour.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spoon the sauce over the chicken; add a little water to the roasting pan if necessary; and place in the oven for about 45 minutes or until golden.
Serve sprinkled with parsley alongside the Rice-Fide Pilaf with some extra sauce from the pan poured on top.
Lime-Infused Rice & Fide Pilaf
In a medium saucepan, heat a tablespoon of butter and a tablespoon or so of olive oil over medium heat. Add a handful of Fide (breaking it up with your fingers as you add it to the pan). Saute the Fide until golden and nutty; quickly toss in about 1 1/2 cups rice and give it a good stir. Add about 3 cups of water, plenty of salt and some freshly ground pepper and bring the mixture to a boil. Before covering, add a lime half (which you've already squeezed for your chicken marinade); cover the saucepan; reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 22 to 25 minutes. Remove from heat and after a couple of minutes stir the pilaf and serve.
