Contests in Higher Mathematics : Miklos Schweitzer Competitions 1962-1991 (Problem Books in Mathematics) - One of the most effective ways to stimulate students to enjoy intellectual efforts is the scientific competition. In 1894, the Hungarian Mathematical and Physical Society introduced a mathematical competition for high school students. Among the winners were Lipot Fejer, Alfred Haar, Todor Karman, Marcel Riesz, Gabor Szego, and many others who became world-famous scientists. The success of high school competitions led the Mathematical Society to found a college-level contest, named after Miklos Schweitzer. The problems of the Schweitzer contests are proposed and selected by the most prominent Hungarian mathematicians. This book collects the problems posed in contests between 1962 and 1991, which range from algebra, combinatorics, theory of functions, geometry, measure theory, number theory, operator theory, probability theory, and topology to set theory. Solutions are included. The Schweitzer competition is one of the most unique in the world. Experience shows that this competition helps identify research talents. This collection of problems and solutions in several fields in mathematics can serve as a guide for many undergraduates and young mathematicians. The large variety of research-level problems should interest more mature mathematicians and historians of mathematics as well.

Live from Atlantic City : The History of the Miss America Pageant Before, After and in Spite of Television - "A great American institution"; "the bane of feminist ideology"; "a cornucopia of corn"; "the world's largest source of scholarship for women"--whatever the descriptor, few are neutral about the Miss America Pageant. Live from Atlantic City traces the pageant's history from its birth as pseudoevent in 1920 through its emergence as American popular culture icon. Although millions watch the pageant on television each year, Live from Atlantic City proposes that it is more than just a television show. Long before, after, and, some might argue, in spite of, television coverage, "a carnival of beauty ran riot on [Atlantic City's] famous Boardwalk." With or without the cameras, "bevies of sea nymphs," "beach peaches," and coeds have paraded up and down runways hoping to win a slice of the American dream. Indeed, long before, after, and very far away from the camera's dissecting lens, protesters have dissented, feminists picketed, and Miss America "wannabees" have frolicked on the fringes. Evidently, there's more to the pageant than meets the TV's eye. Live from Atlantic City takes the reader to times and places where no television camera has focused. Drawing upon (and sometimes debating with) primary and secondary sources, the author paints a vivid picture of life in Atlantic City during pageant week--whether that week be in 1944 or 1984. More than just chronicling events, the author also presents two opposing perspectives on the pageant: the pageant as celebration and idealization of American womanhood; the pageant as sexist, exploitative anachronism.

Money for Writers : Grants, Awards, Prizes, Contests, Scholarships, Retreats, Resources, Conferences, and Internet Information - Whether you've already written your masterpiece and feel it's award worthy or you just can't seem to find the time or place to get those words on paper, Diane Billot's Money for Writers is invaluable. Billot lists hundreds of writing grants, contests, prizes, and such, from the Senior Poet Laureate Competition's $50 prize (plus publication and chapbook) for a U.S. poet over the age of 50 to the $250,000 awards in Health Policy Research. In addition to the more commonplace categories, there is money to be had for writing about cats ($500) and dogs (two awards, one for $500, the other for $2,450), biblical position papers on current world issues ($10,000), and stories about bowling ($3,800). Many of the prizes are regional--there are at least 10 prizes for Texans alone.
