1979 Indiana state mens basketball team nickname?
#5 Rich Nemcek #10 Scott Turner #15 Dave McNally #20 Bob Ritter #22 Carl Nicks #23 Steve Reed #24 Tom Crowder #30 Bob Heaton #32 Eric Curry #33 Some guy named Larry #40 Brad Miley #42 Alex Gilbert #44 Leroy Staley (#5 through #20 are the right guys, but it's possible their numbers are mixed up) The starters were Bird, Miley, Gilbert, Nicks, Reed The first off the bench were Staley and Heaton The other guys very rarely played, except in the last 5 minutes or so of games when the score was totally lopsided (which happened a lot that year... ISU averaged over 90 pts a game). Record was 33 and 0 (actually it was 33 and 1, but I like to forget the last game of the season). Plus won all of their pre-season, exhibition games, incl. vs. the Soviet National Team featuring a moster guy named Kachinko.
What is the smallest school to play in the NCAA Final Four?
I spent a little time researching this but can't find any source for historic enrollment numbers at all of these schools. I found articles referring to Billy Packer's Wake Forest team (1962) and that could be true, although current enrollment at Wake is 4400 (undergrad). Jacksonville claims to be the smallest school to play in the championship game (1970) and their current enrollment (3400) would make them smaller than Wake now, but then? Another article (on Xavier, currently 4000 undergrads) suggested it would be the smallest "since 1979", a year in which Indiana State's Larry Bird team was the smallest (current ISU undergrad enrollment is 8000+). The other participants that year were Michigan State, DePaul (over 20,000) and Penn (notable less for its size than it's no-scholarship Ivy Leageu credentials), so I'm not sure why they chose that reference. I haven't been able to prove, therefore, that St. Bonaventure was not the smallest when it made the final four in 1970 (on Bob Lanier's big shoes and soft touch, but sadly with him on crutches). Current undergrad enrollment (2400) is, I think, only slightly higher than it was in 1970 (when they beat Davidson in the first round). I will, nevertheless, root for Davidson to establish the new mark this year. Providence College played in two final fours and they are under 4,000 in enrollment. I believe Holy Cross also played in one back in the day and they are small as well.
What was George Washington Carvers later years?
George Washington Carver, an American chemist, died January 5, 1943. He was 82. Carver was born a slave in Diamond Grove, Missouri in 1861. After the Civil War, he attended Simpson College in Indianola, Iowa; received a B.A. in agricultural science from what is now Iowa State University in 1894 and a M.A. from ISU in the same field in 1896.Carver is best known for his analysis of the peanut. As a chemist, he found over 270 uses for this small crop. He also studied the sweet potato and found scores of uses for it.From his research, Carver was able to produce a number of new substances derived from the peanut and other naturally growing things. Some of those include veneers, paints, stains, dyes, rubber, explosives and drugs.Carver became Director of the Department of Agricultural Research at what is now Tuskegee University. He held that post for nearly 40 years from 1896-1935.He also established the George Washington Carver Foundation for natural science research.One interesting fact about Carver was that he was an artist of some note. His usual subjects were plants and flowers. He also crocheted and made pine needle baskets. His crochet and baskets are contained in a collection at the Carver Museum at Tuskegee University.Carver died on January 5, 1943 in Tuskegee, Alabama.
Where was the inventor of the first computer?
"The Father of Computers" Charles Babbage who invented the 1st mechanical Computer.. in 1834 he dreamt of designing mechanical calculating machines."... I was sitting in the rooms of the Analytical Society, at Cambridge, my head leaning forward on the table in a kind of dreamy mood, with a table of logarithms lying open before me. Another member, coming into the room, and seeing me half asleep, called out, "Well, Babbage, what are you dreaming about?" to which I replied "I am thinking that all these tables" (pointing to the logarithms) "might be calculated by machinery. "Cambridge, England.. is where the 1st Computer was invented by Charles Babbage. Meanwhile Ada Lovelace is credited as the "first Computer programmer" since she was writing programs -that is, manipulating symbols according to rules-for Babbages machine.AnswerWhile it was Babbage who invented the first Computer in Cambridge, another Englishman Alan Turing the "Father of modern computer science" provided an influential formalisation of the concept of the algorithm and computation with the Turing machine in 1936. Of his role in the modern Computer, TimeMagazine in naming Turing one of the 100 most influential people of the 20th century, states.."The fact remains that everyone who taps at a keyboard, opening a spreadsheet or a word-processing program, is working on an incarnation of a Turing machine".. Source: http://www.time.com/time/time100/scientist/profile/turing.htmlAnswerIowa State University (Ames, Iowa) by John Vincent Atanasoff. There is some dispute as Atanasoff did not patent his digital computer, and eventually other computers came out. There was a lawsuit filed by ISU which they eventually won that establishes their campus as the "Birthplace of the electronic digital computer". AnswerCheck out the answer to "Why was the first computer made?" I've answered the question of when and where as well. Specifically, the first machine we classify as a true computer (capable of making decisions) was the ENIAC which was built at the University of Pennsylvania between 1943 and 1946 by John Mauchly and J. Presper Eckert. However, much of the credit for the original design of the electronic computer is given to John Atanasoff who, together with his graduate student Clifford Berry, developed a working digital computer on the Iowa State campus between 1939 and 1942. Because of improper handling of their patent application, it took almost 50 years for them to receive full credit for their invention the ABC (Atanasoff Berry Computer). AnswerDuring World War II, "the father of modern Computer Science" Alan Turing (inventor of the Turing Machine) worked as a cryptographer, decoding codes and ciphers at one of the British government's top-secret establishments located at Bletchley Park. In January 1943, along with a number of colleagues, Turing began to construct an electronic machine to decode the Geheimfernschreiber cipher. This machine, which they dubbed COLOSSUS, comprised 1,800 vacuum tubes and was completed and working by December of the same year! By any standards COLOSSUS was one of the world's earliest working programmable electronic digital computers. But it was a special-purpose machine that was really only suited to a narrow range of tasks (for example, it was not capable of performing decimal multiplications). Having said that, although COLOSSUS was built as a special-purpose computer, it did prove flexible enough to be programmed to execute a variety of different routines. a AnswerMan first started counting on his fingers and toes...it is no coincidence that "digit" refers to body parts and numbers. Then came the first real computer...the Abacus. Designed to deal with larger numbers and a mechanical object. The Abacus is thought to have been invented by the ancient Babylonians between 1000 BC and 500 BC. AnswerComputers have been around for a very, very long time. But the definition of what makes something a computer has changed a great deal. And the progress made on developing computers was made by many many people, not just one "inventor". There are many people out there who would say that the first "computer" was the abacus, invented in Asia about 5000 years ago. But somehow I doubt that this is what you're looking for, so let's look a little more recently... As time went on, there were a number of special devices invented to help with things like tax collecting, taking the census, etc. At first, these were purely mechanical, but by the start of the twentieth century, they were run by steam.The first of the "modern" computers was invented during World War II, in 1941 by a German engineer named Konrad Zuse. The computer was called the Z3 and was used to help design German airplanes and missiles. A couple years later, in 1943, the Allied forces developed a computer called Colossus to help decode German messages. But since the Z3 was developed by the side that lost the war and Colossus stayed a military secret for many years, these computers didn't contribute much to the ones that came next.Independent of the Colossus project, the next computer was the Mark I, designed by Howard H. Aiken, an engineer working with Harvard and IBM. The Mark I was positively huge, taking up half of a football field, but it helped to create ballistic charts for the US Navy during the war. Shortly after this, though, came the Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC), developed by John Presper Eckert and John W. Mauchly, working with the government and the University of Pennsylvania. ENIAC was a lot like the Mark I, except that it ran about 1000 times faster.Moving along, there were other computers like EDVAC (1945), UNIVAC I (1951), etc. But all these computers had something in common with the older computers - they were designed for a specific purpose and couldn't really be used for anything else. They also all worked by using vacuum tubes, which is what made them take up so much space. The invention of the transistor in 1947 by John Bardeen, Walter Brattain, and William Shockley at Bell Labs made the big difference from here.Using transistors, computers came around that could store memory and even run programs. Soon they even had computer languages so that people could change the programs run by the computer when they wanted to. After a while, the focus on computer research came to be on making them smaller, giving us the kinds of computers that we have today.For some great resources with a lot more detailed information, check out these links:Computers: History and Development - Lots of information starting all the way back in Asia all the wayAnswerKonrad Zuse - German - developed and built the first binary digital computer in the world, the Z1 in 1938 and in 1941 built the Z3 which was first fully functional program-controlled electromechanical digital computer in the world. Both of these machines were destroyed during WWII. the first "computer" was an abacus.. and that was like 3,000 years agoCORRECTCORRECTANDCORRECT :)
