Hill, George William
(b. New York, N.Y., 3 March ; d. West Nyack, New York, 16 April )
mathematical astronomy.
In the opinion of Simon Newcomb, Hill was destined to rank “as the greatest master of mathematical astronomy during the last quarter of the nineteenth century.” In Hill was ranked second after E. H. Moore by the leading mathematicians in the United States and first, tied with Newcomb, by the leading astronomers. He was honored in his lifetime by the bestowal of advanced degrees and medals and by honorary memberships in the most prestigious professional scientific societies and institutions throughout the world. Yet throughout all of this recognition he remained a simple man of the country.
Hill’s father, John William Hill, was born in England while his mother, Catherine Smith, was descended from an old Huguenot family. His grandfather had been a successful engraver in London before emigrating to Philadelphia in Both Hill’s father and younger brother were painters, and in his father retired to a farm in Nyack Turnpike (now West Nyack), New York.

Drop=Dead CD
Debut Album. Innovative and Brutal Dubcore from Sweden.
The highly talented Swedes BEYOND ALL RECOGNITION finally release their brutal and innovative debut album "Drop=Dead"!
Vile Metalcore riffs, demolishing grooves and vocals ranging from extreme growls and melodic parts dominate the 12 tracks on the longplayer.
However, what sets BEYOND ALL RECOGNITION apart from other bands in the Metalcore genre, are their Dubstep elements woven into the fabric of each song.
This creates the perfect fusion between Metalcore and Dub Step with an end result of a sound-landscape that has never been heard before.
"Drop=Dead" will undoubtedly infuse new impulses to an otherwise often very stagnate music-scene.
Without a doubt, BEYOND ALL RECOGNITON is about to write music history!
