He emigrated in 1884 to the United States, where he became a naturalized citizen. He worked for a short time at the Edison Machine Works in New York City before he struck out on his own. With the help of partners to finance and market his ideas, Tesla set up laboratories and companies in New York to develop a range of electrical and mechanical devices. His alternating current (AC) induction motor and related polyphase AC patents, licensed by Westinghouse Electric in 1888, earned him a considerable amount of money and became the cornerstone of the polyphase system which that company eventually marketed.

  • ARSC Journal, Vol
    EDISON AND GROWING HOSTILITIES1 By Raymond Wile The spring of 1878 witnessed a flurry of phonographic activity at the Edison laboratories. Caveats were filed with the United States Patent Office, and Prelimi­ nary Specifications were filed on April 24, 1878 which resulted in the eventual issuance of a British patent.2 Despite this initial activity, the Edison involvement rapidly wound down by the end of that summer. In September a fatal mistake occurred-final specifications were supplied for the British patent, but the equiva­ lent American applications were neglected. In December, an attempt was made to rectify the omission by predating a series of applications, but the U.S. Patent Office refused to allow this and the matter had to be dropped. Except for a patent applied for on March 29, 1879 and granted in 1880 the phonograph seems to have been completely abandoned by Edison in favor of his new interest in the electric light.3 During the first half of the eighties there is no evidence whatsoever of any phono­ graph activity emanating from Menlo Park. However, Edward H. Johnson, who had done much experimenting for the Edison Speaking Phonograph Company, did be­ come involved in some experimenting after his return from England in 1883-enough so for Bergmann and Company to bill the group for 192 1/2 hours of experimental work.4 Edison had become completely disenchanted and reasoned that the concept of the phonograph was incapable offurther developments. The members of the Edison Speak­ ing Phonograph Company were delighted to relieve Edison of the responsibility for further experimenting when he released them from the necessity of investing further capital.

  • Ear Hematoma Surgery
    Ear Hematoma Surgery Hematoma of the Ear in Dogs & Cats What is a hematoma? A hematoma is a localized mass of blood that is confined within an organ or tissue. A hematoma is sometimes referred to as a "blood blister." The most common type of hematoma in the dog is that affecting the pinna or ear flap. This is called an aural or ear hematoma. Why do aural hematomas occur? Ear hematomas occur when a blood vessel in the ear bursts and bleeds into the space between the ear cartilage and skin. This is most commonly associated with trauma such as scratching or shaking the ears and bite wounds. Dogs with ear infections may violently shake their head or scratch their ears causing an aural hematoma. In some cases, there may be a piece of foreign material lodged in the ear canal such as a tick, piece of grass, etc. It is also possible that a foreign body initiated the shaking but was later dislodged. Dogs with long, floppy ears are at greater risk for developing ear hematomas. Pets with clotting or bleeding disorders may also develop hematomas, with or without a history of trauma. How is a hematoma treated? "The hematoma must be treated as soon as possible or permanent disfigurement may result." As well as treating the hematoma, it is important to treat the underlying cause. The hematoma must be treated as soon as possible or permanent disfigurement may result. The preferred method of treatment involves surgical correction of the hematoma. The actual surgical technique varies with the individual circumstances and veterinarian's preference, but always involves the same basic steps.

Preston, M. D., of Americus, Ga. The following cases of malignant spotted fever are sent for publication,— it may not be amiss to state that, in their delinea- tion and treatment, the utmost frankness is observed : During the past twelve months, all the endemic diseases have increased in number and intensity. The first months pre- senting serous diarrhoeas, cholera infantum and cholera morbus, with occasional cases of angina pharyngitis. From June to the middle of September, intermittents and remittents, together with melanosis and carbuncle. From the middle of September until November, malignant double tertians, some few algid, others combined with semi reaction — in which inflammations of the asthenic type prevailed— which if not promptly treated passed within a few hours into profound and irremediable con- jestion.
