The John Murray Laboratories Adjacent to the Grant Institute is a single story building annexed to the Grant Institute in the late 1980's. It houses staff and equipment involved in research in oceanography, climate change, fluid flow in porous media, pollution and similar environmental problems. All University buildings are named after eminent men and women associated with Edinburgh, in this case Sir John Murray, for whom a brief Biography follows.
SIR JOHN MURRAY (1841-1914) - FOUNDER OF MODERN OCEANOGRAPHY
In 1883, he set up the Edinburgh Marine Laboratory at Granton, the first of its kind in Britain. This laboratory was moved to Millport in 1894 to become the Scottish Marine Station for work in the Clyde Sea area, the forerunner of the Scottish Marine Biological Association (SMBA) and the Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS). Throughout this time, Edinburgh through Murray had retained her dominant position at the head of the oceanographic community. Herdman (Natural History, Liverpool) wrote in about 1900, that "for about twenty years Edinburgh was the centre of oceanographic research and the Mecca towards which marine scientists from all over the world turned". During this time Murray became a friend of kings (Norway), princes (Monaco) and the common man.

Knopen
Gerard van der Geer
Universiteit van Amsterdam Iedereen weet hoe je een knoop in een touwtje kunt leggen. Deze knoop kun je dan ook weer losmaken. Dat lukt niet meer als je de uiteinden van het touwtje met elkaar verbindt. Voor de wiskundige is een knoop daarom een inbedding van een cirkel in de -dimensionale ruimte . Twee knopen beschouwen we als gelijk als ze door een continue deformatie in elkaar kunnen worden getransformeerd. De centrale vraag in de knopentheorie is of een knoop een echte knoop is of in de triviale knoop
kan worden getransformeerd. Bij de klaverbladknoop (zie de figuur) kan dat niet. Klaverbladknoop Cijfer 8-knoop Dat ligt na een blik op het diagram voor de hand; de vraag is natuurlijk hoe je dit bewijst. Voor meer ingewikkelde knopen is het in het algemeen erg lastig in te zien of de knoop een echte knoop is of niet. Knopen worden hierbij aangegeven met een diagram als in bovenstaande figuren. Zo een diagram kan opgevat worden als een projectie van de knoop. Een en dezelfde knoop kan veel verschillende diagrammen hebben. Een variant wordt verkregen door meerdere cirkels in te beschouwen.

http://epswww.unm.edu/facstaff/zsharp/106/lecture 13, KELVIN'S DEMISE.htm
The ‘demise’ of Kelvin EPS-106, Nov. 4 th th Lecture 13 Kelvin and the geologists were on a collision course. Lyell had argued that the Earth was very old – following the Uniformitarianistic arguments of Hutton. Kelvin’s estimates for the age of the Earth kept coming down. Eventually, Kelvin turned on the concept of uniformitarianism, saying that there wasn’t enough time. He was agreeable to the method of attempting reconstruction from the rock record and using the present as a key to the past. He was opposed to the idea that the agencies and forces have always operated at the same level of energy as today. If, as he contested, the laws of thermodynamics were obeyed, then the heat engine of the Earth must be changing with time. It would be a very wonderful, but not an absolutely incredible result, that volcanic action has never been more violent on the whole than during the last two or three centuries: but it is as certain that there is now less volcanic energy in the whole earth than there was a thousand years ago, as it is that there is less gunpowder in the “Monitor” after she has been seen to discharge shot and shell, whether at a nearly equable rate or not, for five hours without receiving fresh supplies, than there was at the beginning of the action. Yet the truth has been ignored or denied by many of the leading geologists of the present day . . . Kelvin, 1864.

Peter Guthrie Tait, m³odszy o rok od Maxwella, by³ mu poufa³ym towarzyszem i przyjacielem z czasów wspólnych nauk w Akademii Edynburskiej; ju¿ od r. 1846 rozprawiali z m³odzieñczym zapa³em, udzielali sobie godnych uwagi spostrze¿eñ i wiadomo¶ci; zachwycali siê piêknem geometrii, radowali potêg± dynamiki. W Cambridge, w Trinity College, odnale¼li siê znowu.

Map colouring
In 1852 a student of the University College in London, Francis Guthrie, informed his brother Frederick that, to his knowledge, any map can be painted with only four colours in such a way that no two neighbouring countries (i.e. which have a common frontier segment) share the same colour. Indeed, as Francis had noticed, four colours are sufficient to paint the counties on the map of England, so why wouldn't they be sufficient in all other cases, for arbitrary maps drawn on paper (i.e. on the plane) or on a globe (i.e. on a sphere)? To make things precise, let's assume the frontier of each country consists of one closed curve (which is not always the case with modern states). Frederick Guthrie passed the problem on to one of his teachers, Augustus de Morgan. De Morgan proved that there is no (plane) map with five pairwise neighbouring countries. Unfortunately, this is not enough to prove the non-existence of a map requiring at least five colours (see Fig. 1) and it is not clear whether de Morgan was conscious of this gap, when he mentioned the question to Hamilton in a letter of October 23 rd
Fig. 1. There are no four pairwise neighbouring countries on this map, nevertheless four colours are indispensable for the colouring.

Lorsqu'on nous enseigne la science dans nos grandes institutions éducatives "politcally correct", il y a un silence curieux et constant à l'égard des convictions chrétiennes des pionniers de la science qui ont ouvert la voie dans bien des champs de recherche. S'il est question de Blaise Pascal, d'Isaac Newton ou James Clerk Maxwell on mentionne leurs travaux et leurs exploits, mais touchant leurs convictions chrétiennes, le SILENCE ! L'histoire, c'est ennuyeux, ça n'intéresse personne. Surtout si un examen désintéressé des faits peut remettre en question un mantra "politcally correct", c'est-à-dire que le christianisme a toujours été l'ennemi de la science.

Prized iron and perfect putter
Four staff golfing stars clinched the highly prized PG Tait Iron at the Scottish Universities golfing competition in Edzell last month. The team comprising David Brand from residences, Philip Cohen from life sciences, Rob Ford from research and innovation services and Nick Wade from psychology won the award for the best three scratch scores. Rob, with an impressive handicap of three also picked up the trophy for the lowest scratch score of the day. The iron itself was used by Professor Peter Guthrie Tait (1831-1901) to study the physics of golf. Nick Wade putted his way to success in the University golf matchplay championship beating Philip Cohen's record of winning the trophy in three decades. Nick has now won the putter ten times, in four decades. He is pictured with the prized PG Tait Iron watched by (left to right) Rob Ford, David Brand and Philip Cohen. A golfing funny...

    Palmieri, Paolo, ‘Re-examining Galileo’s theory of tides’, Archive for history of exact sciences
    Galileo’s quest for a physical proof of Copernican astronomy led him to investigate the flux and reflux of the sea as wave-like, with the geometry of the ocean basin the key to understanding the variety of phenomena. Despite the limitations of available mathematical resources he came up with a working principle of superposition of waves. Palmieri, Paolo, 'The obscurity of the equimultiples. Clavius' and Galileo's foundational studies of Euclid's theory of proportions', Archive for history of exact sciences
    Galileo believed that Euclid's definition of proportionality was obscure and proposed to replace it with a new definition. Clavius (1538-1612) devoted numerous sections of his massive commentary on Euclid's Elements to the study of proportions and, for different reasons, was concerned with the obscurity of Euclid's definition.
