	Bertrand (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Bertrand married Louis Celine Aclocque in 1844; their sons Marcel Alexandre (born 2 July 1847), Joseph Désiré (born 1853) and Léon Gratien (born 1858) all studied at the École Polytechnique, and Marcel went on to become a famous geologist.
		In 1881 Paul Appell married Amelie, a niece of Bertrand and of Hermite and a cousin of Emile Picard.
		Bertrand, by this time one of the leading mathematicians in France, had to deal with the consequences as it was questioned whether the mathematics being taught was too theoretical, and so not preparing the leading young Frenchmen for the military.

	Bertrand competition - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bertrand competition is a model of competition used in economics, named after Joseph Louis François Bertrand (1822-1900).
		Specifically, it is a model of price competition between duopoly firms which results in each charging the price that would be charged under perfect competition, known as marginal cost pricing.
		Bertrand predicts a duopoly is enough to push prices down to marginal cost level, that duopoly will result in perfect competition.

		When Louis XIV revoked the Edict of Nantes, by which Henry IV had granted freedom of public worship to the Protestants, missionaries were chosen from among the greatest orators of the day, e.g.
		According to Cardinal de Bausset, he induced Louis XIV to remove all troops and all evidences of compulsion from the places he visited, and it is certain that he proposed and insisted on many methods of which the king did not approve.
		Louis XIV, who had done all he could to bring the condemnation of the "Maximes des Saints", had already punished its author by ordering him to remain within the limits of his diocese.

		A prominent French mathematician, Joseph Bertrand studied and taught at the École Polytéchnique in Paris.
		For philosophical reasons, Bertrand was generally opposed to the application of mathematical reasoning to psychology, sensations, and other elusive components of human behavior.
		As a result, he was very dismissive Léon Walras's pretentious claim that economics was merely a branch of applied mathematics.

	Francois Quesnay
		The humbly-born Francois Quesnay trained himself in medicine, rising to become a physician in Louis XV's court and the leader of a sect of Enlightenment thinkers known as the Physiocrats or the economistes.
		Francois Quesnay's interest in economics arose in 1756, where, hoping to draw on his country background, he was asked to contribute several articles on farming to the Encylopèdie of Diderot and d'Alembert.
		Francois Quesnay went on to write numerous articles on economics in 1766-1768 in the Journal de l'agriculture, du commerce et de finances and in the Ephémérides du Citoyen under pseudonyms like M.N., M.H., M.A., M. de Isles, etc. (sometimes having his alter-egos enjoin in journal debates with each other).

	"Revived" Orders: the Order of Saint Lazarus
		Louis XVIII kept wearing the star of the Order (and was buried with it) but otherwise showed no interest whatsoever in the order.
		Bertrand thinks he found an exception: in the 1829 edition, two names appear in that list without a date of nomination, and Bertrand sees those again as post-1788 nominations.
		Bertrand remained active in the Order: at some point between 1945 and 1951, he took to calling himself Bertrand de la Grassière, under which name he published various works of genealogy and history, as well as technical articles on maritime law.

	April 5 - Today in Science History (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Joseph(-Louis-François) Bertrand was a French mathematician and educator remembered for his elegant applications of differential equations to analytical mechanics, particularly in thermodynamics, and for his work on statistical probability and the theory of curves and surfaces.
		In 1845 Bertrand conjectured that there is at least one prime between n and (2n-2) for every n>3, as proved five years later by Chebyshev.
		In 1893, Thomas Corwin Mendenhall, then Superintendent of Weights and Measures, with the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury, decided that the International Meter and Kilogram would in the future be regarded as the fundamental standards of length and mass in the United States, both for metric and customary weights and measures.

		His book Calcul des probabilités (1888) contains a paradox on continuous probabilities, Bertrand's paradox, which is that there are three solutions to the problem: Determine the probability that a random chord of a circle of unit radius has a length greater than the square root of 3 (the side of an inscribed equilateral triangle).
