Andrew was from Scotland, and received his education at Aberdeen. He established a successful private military academy at Woolwich Common which prepared pupils for the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich. In 1809 the East India Company purchased Addiscombe Place, near Croydon, to be its military seminary, training cadets for its private army in India. Andrew was appointed headmaster and Professor of Mathematics. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in March, 1821.
The terms of his contract allowed him to accrue large profits from the cadets' fees: following criticism, the system was changed at his request in 1821. He retired in August 1822 and died at Edinburgh on 13 June 1833.
Andrew was the author of Astronomical and Nautical Tables (1805); Institutes of Grammar and Chronological Tables (1817); Key to Scriptural Chronology (1822); and Hebrew Grammar and Dictionary without Points (1823). The copy of this book in the British Library belonged to the Prince Augustus Frederick, Duke of Sussex, and contains an autograph letter of Andrew.
James Andrew Trehane Lake (c. 1840 – 13 March 1876), generally referred to as J. A. T. Lake, was a businessman, lawyer and politician in the British colony of South Australia.
History
James was born in London to Henry Lake (1811–1878) and his wife Ann née Trehane (died 1885), and the older brother of George Hingston Lake (1847–1900). The family arrived in South Australia in 1853.
He had, with his father and brother, an interest in a sheep station on the Eastern Plains near the Barrier Range, on which they worked for five years, but were forced to leave after a devastating flood.
He studied law in England, serving his articles with (later Sir) Samuel Way, and though he had broken this service for ten weeks to help with the pastoral property, was admitted to the Bar in 1867, and immediately set up a practice of his own, later joined by F. O. Bruce, and the partnership continued for about a year.
In 1871 he and Charles John Reynolds, later mayor of Port Adelaide, purchased John Thomas Fielder's timber yard, which as Lake & Reynolds they ran, brother George serving as accountant, until 1877, when they sold the business to A. Clausen; the property shortly became the site of the Port Adelaide Market. He also had a financial interest in some copper mines in the mid-north.

Why do we kiss under mistletoe? - Carlos Reif
View full lesson: http://ed.ted.com/lessons/why-do-we-kiss-under-mistletoe-carlos-reif
The sight of mistletoe may either send you scurrying or, if you have your eye on someone, awaiting an opportunity beneath its snow-white berries. But how did the festive tradition of kissing under mistletoe come about? Carlos Reif explains how this long-lived custom intertwines the mythology and biology of this intriguing plant.

Webinar: Arctic Extremes - The Frontlines of Global Warming
Presented by Woods Hole Research Center (WHRC)'s Rachael Treharne, Tatiana Shestakova and Sue Natali. Introductory remarks by Heather Goldstone, WHRC's Chief Communications Officer.
The Arctic is warming faster than almost anywhere else on Earth and often the changes with the biggest impact are not linear – they are abrupt, acute shifts; extreme events. WHRC scientists Rachael Treharne, Tatiana Shestakova, and Sue Natali will share their experiences of tracking and studying extreme events in a rapidly changing Arctic.

Have you ever come across an oddly stretched image on the sidewalk, only to find that it looks remarkably realistic if you stand in exactly the right spot? These sidewalk illusions employ a technique called anamorphosis — a special case of perspective art where artists represent 3D views on 2D surfaces. So how is it done? Fumiko Futamura traces the history and mathematics of perspective.
