Godfrey Harold Hardy (February 7, 1877 - December 1, 1947) was a prominent British mathematician, famous for his achievements in number theory, especially his work on prime numbers. Non-mathematicians know him largely for two things: His autobiography, A Mathematician's Apology, (ISBN 0521427061), which was published in 1941 and may be the layman's best insight into the mind of a working mathematician; and his mentorship of the Indian mathematician Ramanujan, a relationship that echoed the conflict and cooperation between East and West which have marked modern history.Hardy was Sadleirian Professor at Cambridge from 1931 to 1942. He is also known for formulating the Hardy-Weinberg principle, a basic principle of population genetics, independently from Wilhelm Weinberg in 1908. From 1911 he collaborated with Littlewood, and from 1914 with Ramanujan.
Hardy never married, in his final years he was cared for by his sister.

Stan Laurel (June 16, 1890 - February 23, 1965) and Oliver Hardy (January 18, 1892 - August 7, 1957) were a comedy duo formed in 1926, who appeared in silent movies and later in talkies. However there are many films in which only one of them appears.Laurel was born Arthur Stanley Jefferson in Ulverston, Lancashire (now Ulverston, Cumbria), England. Oliver Hardy (born Oliver Norvell Hardy) was born in Harlem, Georgia near Augusta, Georgia, in the United States of America. He was nicknamed 'Babe'.
Laurel began his career as a comedian in English music halls where he was an understudy to Charles Chaplin in Fred Karno's comedy company. He emigrated to America in 1910 and resumed a vaudeville career. He made his first film appearance in 1918. He stayed in film and did minor and undistinguished work for Hal Roach, Anderson and Universal. While working for Roach he met Hardy. Hardy had been a cinema owner and went into the movies in the early 1920s. They first appeared in the same film in Slipping Wives and Roach saw something that led him to put them together in their 'first' two-reel film, Putting Pants on Philip (1927) directed by Leo McCarey, who went on to direct the majority of their early shorts. However their characterisations had yet to be discovered.
They made a great number of popular shorts before their first long feature with director James Parrott, Pardon Us (1931). The duo reduced the number of shorts they made to concentrate on longer, but clearly less satisfying, works from then on, but still made the classic short The Music Box in 1932. They stopped making shorts in 1935, until when their longer works were Pack Up Your Troubles (1932), Fra Diavolo (1933), Sons of the Desert (1933) and Babes in Toyland (1934). By 1936 the relationship between Laurel and Hardy was under strain and both of them were distanced from Roach. The duo's other films with MGM were Bonnie Scotland (1935), The Bohemian Girl (1936), Our Relations (1936), Way Out West (1937, which includes the famous song On the Trail of the Lonesome Pine), Swiss Miss (1938), and Blockheads (1938). In 1938 they left MGM and made three more films before in 1940 they split with Roach too. They set up their own production company, making a further eight films up to 1945. They made one final film together in 1951, the French-set Robinson Crusoeland, directed by Léo Joannon.
Throughout their career the driving force was Laurel, who wrote the scripts and sometimes produced, and always insisted on being paid twice as much as Hardy.
The official Laurel and Hardy appreciation society is known as The Sons of the Desert after a fraternal society in the film of the same name. It was founded in New York in 1965 with the sanction of Stan Laurel.
Oliver Hardy died in 1957 and was interred in The Valhalla Memorial Park Cemetery in North Hollywood, California. Laurel controversially did not attend his partner's funeral, explaining his absence with the line "Babe would understand." Stan Laurel died in Santa Monica in 1965 and is buried at Forest Lawn-Hollywood Hills in Los Angeles, California.
Their famous signature tune is known as the Cuckoo Song.

Lexicography | Devil's Dictionary | LEXICOGRAPHER, n. A pestilent fellow who, under the pretense of recording some particular stage in the development of a language, does what he can to arrest its growth, stiffen its flexibility and mechanize its methods. For your lexicographer, having written his dictionary, comes to be considered "as one having authority," whereas his function is only to make a record, not to give a law. The natural servility of the human understanding having invested him with judicial power, surrenders its right of reason and submits itself to a chronicle as if it were a statue. Let the dictionary (for example) mark a good word as "obsolete" or "obsolescent" and few men thereafter venture to use it, whatever their need of it and however desirable its restoration to favor -- whereby the process of improverishment is accelerated and speech decays. On the contrary, recognizing the truth that language must grow by innovation if it grow at all, makes new words and uses the old in an unfamiliar sense, has no following and is tartly reminded that "it isn't in the dictionary" -- although down to the time of the first lexicographer (Heaven forgive him!) no author ever had used a word that was in the dictionary. In the golden prime and high noon of English speech; when from the lips of the great Elizabethans fell words that made their own meaning and carried it in their very sound; when a Shakespeare and a Bacon were possible, and the language now rapidly perishing at one end and slowly renewed at the other was in vigorous growth and hardy preservation -- sweeter than honey and stronger than a lion -- the lexicographer was a person unknown, the dictionary a creation which his Creator had not created him to create. God said: "Let Spirit perish into Form," And lexicographers arose, a swarm! Thought fled and left her clothing, which they took, And catalogued each garment in a book. Now, from her leafy covert when she cries: "Give me my clothes and I'll return," they rise And scan the list, and say without compassion: "Excuse us -- they are mostly out of fashion." Sigismund Smith |
