It is of some interest to note that while traditionally associated with the priesthood and the shamans, smiths were also seen as brothers to poets, musicians and dancers. Again, alchemy seems to have inherited some of this in the sense that many alchemists were also poets. Some, such as Thomas Vaughan, seem to have been alchemists solely in the poetic sense, while Michael Maier s most famous work, Atalanta Fugiens, is a cycle of fugues scored for three voices.

I have three brothers, each distinguished in his own field Smith L. Johnston, Jr. (1918-2000) graduated from Emory University in 1939, worked in an Atlanta bank (1939-1942), Private to Captain in the U.S. 

At age eight, I had one sin preying on my mind. My brother. Smith, Jr., three years older than I, played baseball with the boys across the street, Ralph and Lewis, who were respectively one and three years older than Smith. These big boys collected cigarette butts off the street, recovered the residual tobacco, rolled it in brown wrapping paper, and smoked it, literally behind the barn. The family home site was about half a hectare lot, with the house at the front, the barn, pig pen and chicken pen at the rear, and the garden in between. One day I accidentally discovered the boys in the forbidden act of smoking. The big boys then suddenly became friendly, complimented me, invited me to sit down with them and to take a litde... 

Someone in Atlanta, who heard that I had been accepted for graduate school at Caltech, offered to bet my older brother. Smith, Jr., a hundred dollars that I would flunk out by Christmas, because, he said, a backward school such as Emory University could not prepare anyone to compete at that level. Smith was ready to take his bet, but our mother would not allow it, saying, It would put too much pressure on him. ... 

Mr. Smith is affected with Crouzon s syndrome (123500) and has craniosynostosis (i.e., premature closure of the skull sutures) along with unusual facies that includes proptosis secondary to shallow orbits, hypoplasia of the maxilla, and a prominent nose. His son and brother are also affected, although two daughters and his wife are not. Mr. and Mrs. Smith are considering having another child. Their physician counsels them that the risk that the child will be affected with Crouzon s syndrome is... 

Few reports exist relating to hyperzince-mia. Smith etal. (1976) and Smith (1977) were the first to describe an extremely high zinc concentration in plasma in five out of seven members of one family, and in two out of three second-generation individuals with no apparent clinical symptoms or abnormalities. Another three cases of chronic hyperzincemia in three brothers has been described by Failla etal. (1982). Zimmerman (1984) found increased zinc content in umbilical cord serum in eight of nine anencephalics and in three infants with spina bifida. Increased zinc levels...

Another of Yahweh s names eonfirms this. He was Elath-Iahu, the Kenite Smith god. As foreshadowed in Chapter 3, the latter part of the name, lahii, had a very aneient provenance. It dates from about 2630BCE as a title of the god Set. Homs, the divine son of Osiris who overcame Osiris brother Set, was the Calflahu. The Hyksos Israelites may well have heard this name for Yahweh in Egypt where he was analogous to Set. We know lahu is a divine name of Yahweh beeause Solomon is specifically aware of it. ... 

Outstanding pioneers in the development of carbon black production were, in particular, the American brothers Samuel and Godfrey Cabot, who, together with Joseph Binney, Edwin Drew and C. Harold Smith, founded the carbon black companies Cabot diVid Columbian Carbon respectively, in 1882 following the discovery of crude oil and natural gas in Pennsylvania.

Several English and American inventors obtained patents on appUcations of Pyroxiline plastics. The most significant patents were those obtained by John Wesley Hyatt for molding mixtures of Pyroxiline and camphor under heat and pressure in 1869 and in the 1870 s (7). His brother, Isiah Smith Hyatt coined the name "Celluloid" and registered this trademark in the U.S. Patent Office. 

On 1 January 1948, Rolla s older brother (by 10 years), a lawyer, passed away. In the same year, a communication from the lUPAC Inorganic Chemistry Nomenclature Committee served to open an old wound [172]. W. Conard Femelius (1905-86), Chair of the Committee, and Charles CoryeU of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology consulted RoIIa regarding the tricky issue of naming element 61. This query was not an obligatory act of courtesy but a clumsy attempt to neutralize the interference of another discoverer, B. Smith Hopkins. A year before, the actual discoverers, Marinsky, Glendenin, and Coryell on one hand, and the physicists Marion L. Pool (1900-82) and Lawrence Larkin QuiU (1901-89) on the other, had submitted a series of proposals on how to name it.
