Volume 48 - No. 3

By Frederick Gomez

The greatest minds of science and invention – were often women. But, how can this be? How could such a gargantuan legacy of pure genius which, purportedly, helped shape the entire landscape of humanity, be missing from our history books?

That’s a bit of a stretch, isn’t it?

After all, how is it possible that women of such towering genius -whose historic achievements ensured the very advancement of our human species on planet Earth – have been purposely deleted, ignored, and forgotten?

Such a historic cover-up would have been sensationalized and reported by major TV network programming, or perhaps the mighty New York Times, or the ever watchful Washington Post which first broke the Watergate scandal in 1972 (and won a Pulitzer Prize for it in 1973). Incredibly, this has not been the case. Instead of being a steady diet for the media to feast

upon in ‘getting the word out’ to the general public, the scandalous erasing of the names and exploits of these pioneer women of genius from our history books have – at best – gone largely unreported But let’s back the wagon up a bit.

What are we talking about here? Are we speaking of minor, insignificant

scientific contributions from women?

Or are we talking about global, revolutionary achievements in the world of science and invention, such as in the creation of the world’s first atomic bombs, for example? And the Himalayan mountain-size allegation that the names of such women of genius were, purposely, erased from our history books?

Such a notion is so staggering and incomprehensible that it becomes intoxicating.

Adding any additional claims of wrongdoing against women of science would be too incredible for the human mind to digest; like attempting to accomplish a “greater comeback” than the Biblical Lazarus who reputedly returned from the dead.

We need to stop here and contemplate the weight and gravity of what is being alleged. After all, these are mighty powerful claims. And as famed American astronomer, Carl Sagan, once said: “Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.”

Fair enough.

If proven, such an intellectual coverup would be far more than just another fancy song-and-dance conspiracy theory. It would, in fact, be the “Mother of All Lies” within the bastion of world science.

So now that your curiosity has been piqued, let’s not get ahead of our storyline. As the old adage has it: “The best place to start is at the beginning.”

REASON FOR SUCH A COVERUP. It will soon be revealed that male egotism, chauvinism, hidden professional jealousy, and overt gender prejudice against women, all were insidious reasons why women of genius and invention are, even to this day, a shamefully lost-and-forgotten legacy in our classrooms, universities, and general text books.

Except for the overly naïve the ‘smoking gun’ is readily apparent in the inability for most people to answer this fundamental query: “How many famous women scientists or inventors can you name?”

Most cannot name even one. Almost no one can name more than two.

Now ask yourself, why is this so?

Such an inability to enumerate women inventors should, immediately, have raised a suspicious intellectual red flag.

Certainly there have been legions of great women inventors who have given the human race some of the greatest marvels of invention the world has ever seen -- that is beyond fact. So, the question persists – even begs -- to be asked: “Who are these women, and why are they not famous? Why are they not in our school history books?”

Only the most dangerously naïve of us would answer: “These women never existed.”

Even today, in 2018, many segments of our male-dominated society still trips over the dangerous assumption that women are, quite simply, just not smart enough to be great scientists or inventors. That wrongful belief-system has a legacy that was born not that long ago in our young history.

After all, it wasn’t until the 20th-century that American women were, begrudgingly, first allowed the right to vote their own minds in general elections. Reason it took so long: Women were just not considered intelligent enough.

Sound crazy, today?

Well, it may come as a shock that many still believe that women are just not smart enough to know how to vote, think, let alone invent things mechanical! This contemporary view of dumb women persists and is often reflected in our popular jokes today: “What are women going to invent?

Fire-proof matches? Vertical ejection seats on helicopters? Perhaps a parachute that opens on impact?”

Blond jokes regarding women are so prevalent today as to border on the cliché.

But, when all the dust has settled from male testosterone-fueled jokes, there remains one huge, immovable fact: women inventors and scientists were so great, that men often shrank from their presence and had to massage their male egos by keeping their recognition non-existent.

And so the sad legacy persists today.

When It Rains, It Pours

The unusually rainy winter we have had in Phoenix this year reminded me of a joke some of our Seattle, Washington relatives related a few years ago. It seems a lady moved from Phoenix to Seattle and when she arrived it was raining. While she moved in, it rained. The next day it rained... and the next.

After several rainy days, while standing on her porch, she noticed a young boy on the porch of her neighbor's house. Trying not to sound too depressed, in a cheerful voice she called over to the lad, "Hi son, I'm your new neighbor."

"Hi," the boy called back and waved.

"Say, son, does it ever stop raining here?" she asked.

With a look of consternation, the youngster replied, "Lady, how would I know? I'm only six years old!"

I knew that I would be flying in a very small plane, so I was not surprised when the clerk said, "The plane is very full with baggage and passengers."

You, who worry about Democrats versus Republicans --relax, here is our real problem.

In a Purdue University classroom recently, they were discussing the qualifications to be President of the United State.

It was pretty simple. The candidate must be a natural born citizen of at least 35 years of age

However, one girl in the class immediately started in on how unfair was the requirement to be a natural born citizen. In short, her opinion was that this requirement prevented many capable individuals from becoming president.

The class was taking it in and letting her rant, and not many jaws hit the floor when she wrapped up her argument by stating, "What makes a natural born citizen any more qualified to lead this country than one born by C-section?"

Yep, these are the same kinds of 18year-olds that are now voting in our elections! They breed, and they walk among us...

25 Signs You've Grown Up

America can easily recognize the vanguards of invention: Thomas A. Edison, Alexander Graham Bell, Marconi, Tesla, the Wright Brothers, et al. However, poll after poll sadly renders humankind mute when asked to enumerate just one great woman inventor.

To continue to overlook such an inspiring and majestic legacy -which is tragically missing from our seats of learning today -- would be the height of human folly, not to mention the ultimate sin of omission.

Yet, sadly, most of the world today, has no idea who these magnificent female geniuses, inventors, and scientists were. Much less, that they ever existed at all.

BEGINNING OF THE CONSPIRACY. The whole ‘conspiracy’ against women of genius, and inventors in particular, began long ago in America, in 1776, when the Founding Fathers considered all intellectual property to be solely the domain of men. Under U.S. law, women were not allowed to own a patent for any kind of invention. This law was slightly amended in 1790 with the following guidelines: women could hold patents if they were single (which was rare), or widowed. Once a couple was married, they legally became ‘one person.’ In essence, a married woman became a ‘non-person,’ whose existence was nil.

Married women were not allowed to hold patents or own custody of their own children. Many women inventors circumvented this

WOMEN INVENTORS ERASED FROM HISTORY BOOKS. Just how many of history’s inventions were truly the handiwork of women will never be known for sure, as time – and poor record-keeping, as well as male plagiarism – has muddled details of original ownership, etc., down through the years. It is a most sad saga for women of brilliant minds whose astounding ideas were stolen, borrowed, or perverted, with absolutely no mention of these women at all.

For example, every school child is taught the wonders of Eli Whitney and his cotton gin invention which revolutionized the cotton industry in the United States. Whitney’s cotton gin invention was so gargantuan during its time that historians refer to its economic impact as nothing less than: “Influencing the history of the United States. By the mid-nineteenth century, America was supplying three-quarters of the world’s cotton.”

Contemporary historians have uncovered a shocking, and disturbing, counter-story that has been buried in history. Although Whitney received his patent for a cotton gin invention in 1794, a (woman) is said to have presented the original idea and the resolution of problems in his prototype cotton gin design!

she recognized today?

Well, her name was Catherine Littlefield Greene (1755-1814), and she possessed a most extraordinary mind; an inquisitive intellectual mind begat from an upper-level education – a most rare opportunity for women of that suppressed era.

History seems to be uncovering elements of truth that Eli Whitney’s first cotton gin model did not work well.

It was first fitted with wooden teeth and Whitney, it has been well-documented, became frustrated and was about to throw his invention away.

Mrs. Greene is said to have proposed the substitution of wire, instead of wood, to better catch the cotton seeds. Her proposals of other problem-solving concepts are said to have allowed Whitney to eventually carry through ‘his’ ideas. And claim the full idea and patent for the cotton gin, in his name.

According to The National Archives, Catherine Littlefield Greene’s intellectual advice on Eli Whitney’s cotton gin, as well as, “both moral and financial support were critical to Whitney’s efforts (to accomplish his invention).”

Also, world-respected scholars, such as Dr. Fred Amram, Holocaust-survivor, inventor, and retired professor from the University of Minnesota, have stated that Eli Whitney faced challenges in his prototype cotton gin machine that Catherine Greene was only able to resolve. According to Professor Amram, documentation clearly shows that in 1792 Catherine Greene, “Hired Eli Whitney (a Yale

university graduate student) as a tutor for her (five) children (and to help oversee the family plantation).”

It was there that Eli Whitney recognized Catherine Greene’s enormous insight in problem-solving. Greene’s unique thinking is documented by respected author, Sarah Amandolare, as such: “Catherine Littlefield Greene stood out among her Revolutionary War-era counterparts, engaging in political discourse, maintaining friendships with men and generally (thinking outside the box).” (“Catherine Littlefield Greene, Brain Behind the Cotton Gin,” book by Sarah Amandolare.)

Regarding Whitney’s frustration with his early cotton gin device, “She (Catherine Greene) outlined to him the basic problem of separating seeds from cotton fiber. She then gave him information on all the earlier attempts to make the process more efficient, and encouraged him to design something new in his prototype device.”

Also, in a surviving 1800s pamphlet entitled “Woman as Inventor” by Matilda Joslyn Gage, the invention of Eli Whitney’s cotton gin: “Owes its origin to a woman, Catherine Littlefield Greene.”

Gage’s comments are corroborated by other sources of the time that attest that, “The young man (Eli Whitney) faced his first contraption (the cotton gin) with inefficient wooden teeth and he nearly quit, but for Greene’s suggestion to substitute wire for wood which proved successful.”

Eli Whitney applied for his cotton

LEGAL PAPER TRAIL SHOW WOMEN INVENTIONS OFTEN STOLEN: It is not unusual for men to have stolen women’s inventions and then patent these creations as their own. History has abundant and irrefutable proof of this sad state of affairs. Such a scenario played-out in the creation of the square-bottom paper bag, which we are all familiar with today, and take for granted. The common paper bag we see at grocery stores all over the world; the brown bag in which our lunch is kept as we make our way to work.

But, this story of invention has a happy ending.

It involves the inventive genius of Margaret Knight (1838-1914) who historians have rediscovered and recently dubbed “The Female Edison,” and for good reason. She worked in a paper bag factory at a time when paper bags more resembled large envelopes. She revolutionized the paper bag design by creating her own invention in 1868, which automatically folded and glued square-bottomed paper bags, an invention which impacted shopping habits, worldwide!

The Paper • Page 4 • January 18, 2018 Escondido Country Club Owner Hit With Criminal Charges

The city of Escondido has filed a 12count misdemeanor criminal complaint against the owner of the abandoned Escondido Country Club property.

It accuses Michael Schlesinger of not properly maintaining the buildings on the land, the largest of which burned to the ground in November.

Schlesinger’s attorney, Ronald Richards, said the charges are a waste of the court’s time and an “utter disgrace.”

“It is frankly appalling and an abuse of discretion as (the City Attorney’s office) is aware that the entity is managed by professional managers (Stuck in the Rough, LLC) and that Mr. Schlesinger’s addition as a codefendant with the entity is nothing more than a crude publicity stunt,” Richards said.

A fire swept through the main clubhouse on November 22nd, which had been shuttered, along with the golf course, in 2013. Since then, the building had become a place where transients and vandals gather.

Officials say the cause may never be known. The fire department had been called several times to the clubhouse in the past few years for small fires that had been mostly contained

to an area around a fireplace and were started by transients.

“These are a series of municipal code violations associated with allowing the building to stand in its dilapidated state: debris, broken windows, dangerousness,” Escondido City Attorney Michael McGuinness said. “They are responsible for taking care of their property. It’s a completely justified complaint and we’re hoping it solves the problems out there.”

None of the criminal charges carry the threat of jail time. Only fines could be assessed. McGuinness said the city did receive a call from Richards asking why the violations were not handled administratively.

McGuinness said the charges were filed “to get their attention, which it obviously has.”

Schlesinger’s attorney said, ‘the complaint lists allegations that are “opaque, vague, and duplicative” and should have been handled administratively.

“It is frankly unheard of in the absence of even an administrative citation from code enforcement or multiple unpaid administrative fines that a Deputy City Attorney would file an ordinance violation wasting the misdemeanor court’s time,” Richards said.

Recently, he ignited the fire of liberty and TUS “cert pool.”

The cert pool was established in 1973 during the early days of the Burger Court, in order to efficiently review the near 8,000 petitions received each term. In practice, the petitions are apportioned among the Court’s law clerks, who then circulate a memo to the justices recommending a grant or denial. The obvious problem here is that this gives the power in these 8000 cases to the law clerks instead of the Justices. It also, in theory, allows 3rd parties to unfairly influence a case through the clerks.

That is NOT how the Supreme Court was designed to operate.

Neil Gorsuch just managed to set his foot down in the Supreme Court and say it is NOT okay to pass off judgments to the discretion of legal clerks.

This is the kind of story everyone should be hearing or reading in the media, but obviously is not.

Today the United States Supreme Court issued a direct and final blow to the Islamic Indoctrination of the young in this nation.

“Besides lacking any criminal intent whatsoever, Mr. Schlesinger was never put on notice that this matter was remotely close to escalating to this level,” the attorney said. He said the complaint is a poor use of city resources and “is the epitome of a prosecutorial overreach simply designed to further a personal agenda at the expense of my client and its manager.

“My client has resolved all past violation letters that have been issued on this large vacant property for many years,” he said. “None have ever been unresolved. This complaint is a complete and utter disgrace.”

The City Attorney’s office disputes that, pointing out a number of unresolved citations.

In November, the Escondido City Council voted 3-2 to allow for the construction of 380 homes on the property by New Urban West, the development company chosen by Schlesinger to pursue housing plans.

Not longer after the vote, a lawsuit was filed by the community group challenging the city’s approval. New Urban West won’t purchase the property from Schlesinger and begin building until all legal hurdles have been cleared and the company could pull out of the deal, as could Schlesinger, should things drag on too long.

judges, met to decide the fate of Islamic indoctrination in our American public schools. In a typical 5 X 4 decision, common sense won out, and we have sanity restored to our schools once again.

The United States Supreme Court was able to hand out this decision banning Sharia Law and Islam from being taught in classrooms because of the tiebreaking vote of the newly appointed Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch.

Gorsuch went on to write about the decision: “The government certainly has no business being involved in religion, but this isn’t a government issue or a religious issue. This is about the judicial branch interpreting the laws as they apply to the teaching of religion.

We shouldn't be teaching any religions in the public schools of this country.”

Amen, Justice Gorsuch, Amen!

This should have been a unanimous decision, not 5 to 4, but it seems like the 4 liberal judges on the Supreme Court don’t care about the constitution, nor our values.

Perhaps this is the start of restoring America to its founding glory.

Thank goodness for our new Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch --- a great selection by President Trump.

no engineering background, whatsoever, Knight created a most sophisticated automated machine design which was quickly stolen and claimed by a man named Charles Annan (who was in the machine shop where Knight’s iron model was being built). Margaret Knight took Annan to court and litigation lasted 16 days and cost her $1600, but her paperwork and other documents proved to the court’s abundant satisfaction that she was, in fact, the true inventor!

The imposter male inventor used the common sentiment of the time as his defense: “She’s a woman! She could not have possibly have come up with this invention!”

But, this time, such rhetoric did not work. She was finally awarded her patent in 1873.

HISTORY’S UNMATCHED 12YEAR-OLD GIRL GENIUS. This same Margaret Knight, inventor of the square-bottom paper bag, wasted no time as a female inventor, unleashing her inventive genius in a manner unmatched, even by male standards, then and now. At age 12 she went to work – as many other children did – when the Industrial Revolution was in full swing. As a small child, Knight went to work in a textile factory where she became greatly troubled when she saw many other children her own age injured, and even killed, by accidents caused by the shuttle, or as it was called, “The Kiss of Death.” The 12-year-old girl was horrified when she witnessed a child worker actually stabbed by a steel-

tipped shuttle that shot out of a mechanical loom. These terrifying visions troubled her to the point of giving her nightmares, a tormenting experience for such a small child to have to endure.

Miraculously, within weeks, the small girl quickly designed a stopmotion safety device that prevented the weaving machines from ejecting dangerous projectiles! The little girl’s invention gadget automatically turned off the loom whenever too much stress was placed on it. The safety device for the loom was quickly adopted by other textile factories, thus preventing countless injuries and death! Due to prevailing laws and social restrictions of that era, the little girl’s revolutionary invention was, sadly, never patented.

History records no other child-inventor at age 12 with this level of significant achievement which actually proved to prevent severe injuries and even human death, as Margaret Knight did.

History has finally caught up to Margaret Ethridge Knight.

She has now been formally acknowledged as, not only the “Female Edison,” but she is clearly recognized by world historians today as: “The most famous 19th-century woman inventor.”

Believe it or not, Knight went on to give the world other historic inventions, such as a numbering machine (patented in 1894), as well as several devices relating to rotary engines (patented between 1902 and 1914), as

well as innovations related to the internal combustion engine (1913).

Her inventive genius sailed beyond our American shores when Margaret Knight was awarded the “Decoration of the Royal Legion of Honour,” by England’s Queen Victoria in 1871.

Now acknowledged as one of history’s greatest and most eclectic inventors, Margaret Ethridge Knight’s recognition as a woman inventor in our school history books was glacierslow in being acknowledged.

She was finally inducted into the “National Inventors Hall of Fame” in 2006, more than 92 years after she died.

Margaret Knight never married and died in 1914 at age 76.

Perhaps one could say with some poetic justification, that Knight was, indeed, married. At age 12 she first fell in love with inventing marvelous things that benefited humankind, and saved countless lives. She was married to her exquisite gifts and endeavors to invent. That was her life. That was her first and only true love. And the world was made a far better place for it.

Though she is gone, vestiges of Knight remain with us today. Her little box-making machine is in the Smithsonian Museum in Washington, D.C. This little girl, who began inventing at age 12, and eventually held an astounding 87 U.S. patents, is still with us today through her innovative and creative mind.

There are obviously too many women of genius and invention to list here, but I hope to whet your appetite to seek out further reading regarding these extraordinary women of genius, often forgotten. In this article I wish to combine the verbiage ‘invention’ and ‘discovery’ together. Invention is given to creating something new.

Discovery can embrace creations also (such as vaccines, etc.), but can also be extended to things that are not made by humankind, such as Marie Curie’s discovery of radioactive elements, for which she became the first female to receive the Nobel Prize in chemistry, in 1911 (Curie split the 1903 Nobel Prize in physics with her husband).

Below is a fun multiple-choice quiz involving great women of invention and discovery, followed by pertinent commentary. Whether you score high or low is beside the point. That you learn something new and exhilarating, is everything in the name of enlightenment. And, such a fun exercise furthers the long over-due recognition of these wondrous women who contributed so much to our world today. Good luck, relax, and just have fun!

expanding railroad systems. If you picked A above, you are correct. In 1879, Mary Walton created a system to pass locomotive smoke through a water filter, thus reducing smoke and smog pollution. Interestingly, many other male inventors, including Thomas Edison, tried to solve this same problem and failed! Mary Walton succeeded! She also designed railroad tracks that sat on wooden channels filled with cotton and sand, thereby greatly reducing the noise pollution as well! She went on to invent other marvels that contributed to railroad axles and a railroad crossing gate of her own design. In the 1800s, this was a huge cultural shock to men who believed all women to be complete strangers to anything mechanical. Mary Walton is a true, and forgotten, pioneer!

HELEN FREE CREATED: A Electric Toothbrush B Diabetes Self-Testing C Surgical Instruments

She was born Helen Murray Free on February 20, 1923 and no one knew that this newborn baby would, someday, grow into a towering woman of achievement that would shake the world of science forever. And make life more tolerable for sufferers of diabetes. If you selected B above, you are correct! As a woman of science and chemistry, Helen Murray Free gave the world many gifts and blessings, including a glucose detection for diabetes, and many self-testing systems for diabetes which are still in use today.

Sadly, Free never recovered from the loss of her mommy when she was only six years of age.

The little girl’s mother never got the chance to see her daughter grow into a life-saving titan. In 2009, at the great age of 86, Helen Murray Free slowly walked forward to humbly receive the “National Medal of Technology and Innovation.” Old and grey and wrinkled, perhaps, she never looked younger that day.

Especially, when her eyes sparkled and she seemed to smile slightly, and looked heavenward, as if to say, “Mom, this is for you.”

The great woman genius, Helen Murray Free, is still with us at the great age of 94.

WORLD WAR II WOMEN HELP CREATE: A The 50-Caliber Machine Gun B Camouflage Suits & Helmets C The First Atomic Bomb This one may surprise you. But, if you selected C, you deserve a pat on the back. Women scientists were crucial in the development of the world’s first atomic bombs at Los Alamos, New Mexico. These women physicists were not merely spear carriers who assisted in minor roles; instead, they proved to be the harbingers who often solved the key problems that male physicists were unable to resolve! Such an example was Dr. Maria Goeppert Mayer, a Ph.D. physicist, who led 20 scientists and technicians in physics research. She emerged as the most famous woman who worked on the Manhattan Project. Her genius became evident,

years later, when she dismantled all male competitors in winning the 1963 Nobel Prize in physics (the planet’s highest scientific award) for her work in developing the theory of nuclear shell structure!

So why are these women of genius relegated to near-anonymity? Why are their names still smudged-out and missing from our school text books today? And why are these women giants not taught in our seats of learning – our fountains of knowledge – so that our small children may learn of them, and grow up acknowledging their true heritage? If women achievements were of such global significance, wouldn’t any attempt to cover-up their contributions in the creation of the world’s first atomic bombs -which ended the Second World War -- be the height of male arrogance and prejudice? Tragic as it may be, that is precisely the reason: male prejudice, which – except for the very naïve – still prevails today.

Many historians today, both male and female, are now only beginning to overturn these deliberate acts of omission regarding feminine genius during World War II that have been suppressed for far too many years.

These scholarly works are uncovering a shocking gold mine of information regarding the Manhattan Project: “Because of the prevailing attitudes toward women, very little information about these women’s contributions was released during and after World War II. Women worked on essentially all aspects of the Manhattan Project before the first bombs went overseas.” (“Their Day In The Sun,” book by Howes and Herzenberg, Temple Univ. Press, 1999).

It is beyond shameful that these fiercely patriotic women of genius had to endure gender prejudice and jealousy on a most vicious level: “Prevailing societal attitudes toward women assured that no women rose to high-level positions with the Manhattan Project.” (Ibid, 1999.)

Other stellar women who worked on the development of the first atomic bombs are legion, but to name only a few, Leona Wood Marshall Libby worked with Enrico Fermi’s group, assisting in the first self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction on December 2, 1942.

She has been relegated to being only a footnote. A deliberate act of male prejudice.

Other notables were Chinese American patriot, Chien-Shiung Wu, who went on to create 5 inventions in experimental atomic physics! Wu helped create the first reactor that was used for the first atomic detonation in New Mexico on July 16, 1945, less than one month before Little Boy and Fat Man (code names of our country’s first atomic bombs) were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan, thus ending World War II.

Another “Mother of the Atom Bomb” was Elizabeth “Diz” Riddle Graves, who worked at Los Alamos developing a neutron reflector to surround the core of the atomic bomb, itself. Graves was a patriot so fiercely devoted that she contin-

Protecting Prop 13

As your Assemblymember, I work hard in Sacramento to fight taxes, fees and overreaching regulations.

During my 14-years on the Escondido City Council, I never supported a tax increase and continue to support hardworking families and businesses.

Fortunately, Proposition 13, which limits yearly property tax increases to 2% for every property owner, remains one of the main protections for California taxpayers. In 1978, Prop 13 was approved by an overwhelming margin to end the system of rapidly increasing annual property taxes based on reassessed property value.

Unfortunately, efforts to undermine Prop 13 have almost become a yearly occurrence. Whether through attempts to lower voter approval thresholds for local tax increases from two-thirds to 55 percent, or by new efforts to increase commercial property taxes by "split roll".

Everyone benefits from Prop 13, even for recently purchased property. Homeowners are assured their taxes won’t increase simply because real estate speculation has driven up property values. Tenants don’t see their rents increase to

cover the cost of their landlord’s escalating property tax bill, and businesses are able to plan ahead for growth and new jobs knowing what their tax liabilities will be in future years.

California already has the nation’s highest gasoline taxes, high sales and income taxes. We should be encouraging business formation and job creation, not adding new taxes that drive businesses and jobs out of state. Even Gov. Brown stated in his budget conference this week regarding Prop 13, “The fact is there is more property tax collected than ever.” That’s a good sign signaling that Prop 13 has worked to increase state revenues while protecting taxpayers.

Proposition 13 ensures prosperity for all. I will continue to stand firm in my opposition to any efforts that undermine this important protection for California taxpayers.

Minority Floor Leader Marie Waldron, R-Escondido, represents the 75th Assembly District in the California Legislature, which includes the communities of Bonsall, Escondido, Fallbrook, Hidden Meadows, Pala, Palomar Mountain, Pauma Valley, Rainbow, San Marcos, Temecula, Valley Center and Vista.

explanation.”

There are too many women of repute to name here. “At least 85 women helped design and construct the atomic bomb.” (Howe and Herzenberg, Ibid).

Here comes the real shocker.

She monitored the first nuclear explosion (the Trinity Test) in New Mexico.

One woman whose name is long lost and forgotten, was Lise Meitner, one of eight Jewish children; a woman so intellectually superior that it moved Albert Einstein to refer to her as “Our Marie Curie.” She was not immune to male arrogance. “While professional jealousies only threatened to keep Marie Curie from receiving the Nobel Prize, they succeeded in denying Meitner the same recognition.” (The Washington Post Co, Marcia Bartusiak, 1996.)

What you are about to read is both shocking and disturbing.

Historical paper footprints reveal that Lise Meitner and Otto Hahn worked on a theoretical model of nuclear fission. At first, Hahn was unable to understand and solve a neutron-bombardment experiment so he wrote to Lise Meitner asking for her help. To quote from Hahn’s own words, he wrote to Lise Meitner: “Perhaps you can come up with some sort of fantastic

She did!

In a few days of collaboration, she did the ‘impossible’ and came up with that ‘fantastic explanation’ and helped to create a theoretical model of nuclear fission which led the way to the making of the atomic bomb!

Hahn published his research findings without even listing Lise Meitner as co-author! With her name missing from the key experimental paper on nuclear fission, Otto Hahn, alone, received the 1944 Nobel Prize. (“The Making of the Atomic Bomb,” by Richard Rhodes, Simon & Shuster, 1995.)

Most students of World War II are familiar with the Manhattan Project and such luminaries as Enrico Fermi, J. Robert Oppenheimer, and Niels Bohr who helped create the first nuclear reactor and subsequent atomic bombs. But, less known were the brilliant women physicists that the U.S. Government brought into the Top Secret Project. The very women that solved several key scientific problems that their male counterparts were unable to solve.

Communication

Dr. Grace Murray Hopper (19061992) was a curious child. At age seven she dismantled her alarm clock in order to fathom its mode of operation. Only problem was that the young child was unable to piece it back together again! The curiosity of genius which stirred within the little girl was so compelling that the sevenyear-old succeeded in dismantling seven clocks before her angry mother stopped her! If you picked C above, you are correct. As an adult, Hopper helped develop a common language with which computers could communicate, called Common BusinessOriented Language or COBOL (1959-61) for UNIVAC, the first commercial electronic computer.

Aside from being a brilliant mathematician, and pioneer in data processing, she was the first woman to reach the rank of rear admiral in the U.S. Navy (1983).

Sadly, Hopper’s works were never patented. Her contributions were prior to computer software technology and were not considered a ‘patentable field.’

STEPHANIE KWOLEK INVENTED: A The Flash Light B The Speedometer C Stephanie Kwolek was a top-drawer, true genius! She was one of Dupont’s premiere chemists, and the discoverer of Kevlar, often called “The Miracle Fiber.” So, if you picked C above, you are right on the mark! Kevlar has five times the strength of steel by weight and its application is universal. It is used in ropes and cables for drilling rigs, canoe hulls, boat sails, automobile bodies and tires. Also, in the making of military and motorcycle helmets. Many of our military veterans and police officers are alive today because of Kevlar, which is used in making bullet-proof vests!

Kwolek’s creation is so miraculous that it proved superior to the oldfashioned steel-plated vest which could not stop a bullet – but, ¼-inch Kevlar can! The so-called ‘miracle fiber’ can also withstand temperatures of up to 900-degrees Fahrenheit and is subsequently used by such emergency units as fire department personnel! Hedloc (Kevlar) was patented by Stephanie Kwolek in 1971. Its creation has saved countless human lives around the world!

PATRICIA BATH CREATED: A Cataract Laserphaco Probe B Transistor Radio C Military Walkie-Talkie Device

Dr. Patricia Bath was one of the greatest and most important women inventors in the field of ophthalmology (branch of medicine which deals with the anatomy, physiology, and diseases of the human eye). If you selected A, you are correct. Dr. Bath dedicated herself to the treatment and prevention of blindness, which led her to the discovery of Cataract Laserphaco Probe (patented in 1988), which uses the power of a laser to quickly and painlessly remove (vaporize) cataracts from patients’ eyes, rendering the old drill-like device and method, obsolete.

Born to poor parents in Harlem, Dr.

Bath became the first African American woman doctor to receive a patent.

With another invention, the genius of Dr. Bath allowed her to restore sight to people who had been blind for over 30 years! Bath founded and became the first president of the American Institute for the Prevention of Blindness.

Luckily for the entire world, Dr. Patricia Bath fought numerous odds besides negative gender bias, including extreme poverty and racial prejudice -- and conquered them all. In so doing, she gave countless people new lives. And new sight! If you are, indeed, one of those with restored sight, then you may know far better than most, how much we should all treasure and bestow our gratitude to all these great women of genius.

Many of whom have, sadly, been erased, long lost, and forgotten.

Until now.

Why Dogs Are Better Than Cats

Dogs will tilt their heads and try to understand every word you say. Cats will ignore you and take a nap.

Cats look silly on a leash.

When you come home from work, your dog will be happy and lick your face. Cats will still be mad at you for leaving in the first place.

Dogs will give you unconditional love until the day they die. Cats will make you pay for every mistake you've ever made since the day you were born.

A dog knows when you're sad. And he'll try to comfort you. Cats don't care how you feel, as long as you remember where the can opener is.

Dogs will bring you your slippers.

Cats will drop a dead mouse in your slippers.

When you take them for a ride, dogs will sit on the seat next to you. Cats have to have their own private basket, or they won't go at all.

Dogs will come when you call them.

Historically Speaking

by Tom Morrow

who ventured into Whitechapel from a more well-to-do area. One speculation had a member of Queen Victoria’s Royal family involved.

Extensive newspaper coverage bestowed widespread and enduring international notoriety on the “Ripper”, and the legend solidified. A police investigation into a series of 11 brutal killings in Whitechapel up to 1891, was unable to connect all the killings conclusively to the murders of 1888.

The original five “Ripper” victims are Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, and Mary Jane Kelly.

History’s Most Famous Unsolved Murder Mystery

The most infamous killer in history, after 130 years, is still unknown. His (or her) identity has remained a mystery since 1888.

“Jack the Ripper” is the best-known name for the serial killer generally believed to have been active in the largely impoverished areas in and around the Whitechapel district of London.

The name "Jack the Ripper” originated in a letter written by someone claiming to be the murderer. In turn, the moniker was disseminated in the media. The letter is widely believed to have been a hoax and may have been written by journalists in an attempt to heighten interest in the story and increase their newspapers' circulation. In both the criminal case files and contemporary journalistic accounts, the killer also was called "the Whitechapel Murderer" and "Leather Apron." Nonetheless, whenever a serial killer is at large in the western world, the name “Jack the Ripper” emerges in newspaper headlines. A number of movies have been made around the world.

“Jack” has garnered more newspaper stories, headlines and books, not to mention movies, for the past 130 years.

The case remains open at London’s Scotland Yard and hundreds of people over the past century have tried the solve the mystery: just who was “Jack the Ripper?”

Attacks ascribed to “Jack the Ripper” typically involved female prostitutes who lived and worked in the slums of the East End of London. Their throats were cut prior to abdominal mutilations and disembowelment.

The removal of internal organs from at least three of the victims led to the supposition their killer had some anatomical or surgical knowledge. Rumors that the murders were connected intensified in September and October 1888, and letters were received by media outlets and Scotland Yard from a writer or writers purporting to be the murderer.

The concentration of the killings around weekends and public holidays and within a few streets of each other has indicated to many that the “Ripper” was in regular employment and lived locally. Others have thought that the killer was an educated upper-class man, possibly a doctor or an aristocrat

Mythical theories draw on cultural perceptions such as fear of the medical profession, mistrust of modern science, or the exploitation of the poor by the rich. Suspects proposed years after the murders include virtually anyone remotely connected to the case by contemporary documents, as well as many famous names who were never considered in the police investigation.

There are many and varied theories about the identity and profession of “Jack the Ripper,” but authorities are not agreed upon any of them, and the number of named suspects reaches over one hundred.

The nature of the murders and of the victims drew attention to the poor living conditions in the East End and galvanized public opinion against the overcrowded, unsanitary slums. In the two decades after the murders, the worst of the slums were cleared and demolished, but the streets and some buildings survive and the legend of the “Ripper” is still promoted by guided tours of the murder sites. The Ten Bells public house (saloon) in Commercial Street was frequented by at least one of the victims and was the focus of such tours for many years. In 2015, “Jack the Ripper” Museum opened in east London.

In addition to the contradictions and unreliability of contemporary accounts, attempts to identify the real killer are hampered by the lack of surviving forensic evidence. DNA analysis on extant letters is inconclusive; the available material has been handled many times and is too contaminated to provide meaningful results. There have been mutually incompatible claims that DNA evidence points conclusively to two different suspects, and the methodology of both has also been criticized.

“Jack the Ripper” features in hundreds of works of fiction and works which straddle the boundaries between fact and fiction, including the “Ripper” letters and are a hoax. The “Ripper” appears in novels, short stories, poems, comic books, games, songs, plays, operas, television programs, and films.

More than 100 non-fiction works deal exclusively with the “Jack the Ripper” murders, making it one of the most written-about true-crime subjects. He is depicted as a shadow. In 2006, BBC History magazine and its readers selected “Jack the Ripper” as the worst Briton in history.

Bottom line: this is one crime that will likely not be solved, yet speculation will continue for years to come.

Popular Story

Lyle & Evelyn, just to let you know, apparently this week's cover story is generating a lot -- a lot -- of public interest!!

The Kalmia Branch library had a huge stack of the story "When Dogs Do Miraculous Things," and they are now COMPLETELY OUT!!

Also, Irma P. a teller from the San Diego County Credit Union off East Valley Parkway and Broadway -- their stack of this issue, are also gone!! Irma told me that the customers who have gone to do their banking are all talking about this most emotional storyline and just LOVE IT!!

So, I don't know if you, normally, refill these 'drop off' spots or not, but, just wanted to give you this update!

A friend of a friend also informed me earlier in the day that a fan of The Paper was reading the current edition of The Paper at the San Diego International Airport earlier today, and she found the story soooo touching that she, at times, broke down and cried! I was told she has a beagle dog, 10 years old, by the name of Tobey! She fell absolutely IN LOVE WITH THE PAPER!!!

All great news of course!! But, just wished to give you an update that these two drop-off spots have completely 'gone dry' with The Paper being snatched up as word is getting out.

Anyway, wonderful news in that the public has fallen in love with The Paper's current story, but, don't know if you plan to re-drop off further issues or not.

That's it in a nutshell.

We found him! Waldo is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. He’s a 2 year old, 47 pound, Australian Cattle Dog mix.

Waldo is an exceptionally smart dog who wants nothing more than to give and get affection. He needs an active family and he should be the only dog in his new home. Waldo was transferred through the FOCAS program.

The $145 adoption fee for Waldo includes medical exam, vaccinations, neuter, and microchip. For more information call 760-7536413, visit Rancho Coastal Humane Society at 389 Requeza Street in Encinitas, or log on to SDpets.org.

Just Mercy

There was a time I read for fun and enlightenment but for at least ten years now, I have spent my time reading about public policy. The holiday break offered me a window of free time I am not accustomed to. I took a break from reading staff reports to read a wonderful book called Just Mercy.

Just Mercy is an easy read on a heavy subject – inequality and injustice. This book calls attention to the many ways people Humane Society’s annual Walk for Animals will take place at Kit Carson Park in Escondido on Friday, February 24th, and in San Diego at Liberty Station on Saturday, May 5th. Help the Humane Society create a more humane San Diego by registering for the Walk, and you’ll help take a big step toward a brighter future for animals in need.

Every registration, every dollar raised, makes a lifesaving difference. Together we can make San Diego County the safest and best place to be animal – by providing shelter, adoptions, veterinary care, animal cruelty investigations, spay/neuter surgeries, rescue and evacuations, safety-net services for lowincome pet families, and more. When you sign up online, you can choose to register as an individual; become a team captain and get your friends, family members, neighbors, coworkers and furry friends to join you, or join an existing team. Register before January 20th and use the code JANUARY for 50% off adult and youth registrations.

Amberjack came to us as a momma with 5 little pups – and after doing an amazing job raising her beautiful babies, she is now ready to find her new home! She’s been spending time in a loving foster home and is already starting to blossom! Ideally, Amberjack would love to go to a home with another friendly, mellow dog to hang out with, to help show her that the world isn’t so scary. Her foster mom says she loves to see her smile, and that Amberjack will be “such a gem for a family because she’s so easy!” Amberjack’s adoption fee includes her spay, permanent microchip identification, current vaccinations, 30 days worry free insurance from Trupanion Insurance and a certificate for a free veterinary exam!

Amberjack is available for adoption and living in a foster home. To arrange for a meeting and to learn more about making her part of your family, please call (619) 299-7012.

Pastor Sam Brumit Mission 316 - San Marcos

Becoming Like a Little Child

Jesus said “I tell you the truth, anyone who doesn't receive the Kingdom of God like a child will never enter it." Then he took the children in his arms and placed his hands on their heads and blessed them”. We start out life as children and, somewhere along the way, we become adults and wind up losing some of that child-like spirit.

Along those lines, I recently ran across this thought from famed writer and journalist G.K. Chesterton (who wrote when my mom was scarcely a child). It caught me in my tracks. I had to read it several times and the more I did… the more it made me

“Because children have abounding vitality, because they are in spirit fierce and free, therefore they want things repeated and unchanged. They always say, "Do it again"; and the grown-up person does it again until he is nearly dead. For grown-up people are not strong enough to exult in monotony. But perhaps God is strong enough to exult in monotony. It is possible that God says every morning, "Do it again" to the sun; and every evening, "Do it again" to the moon. It may not be automatic necessity that makes all daisies alike; it may be that God makes every daisy separately, but has never got tired of making them. It may be that He has the eternal appetite of infancy; for we have sinned and grown old, and our Father is younger than we.”

Perhaps we have “sinned and grown old”. Maybe God is younger than we are! Take the attitude of a child and you’ll perhaps find yourself saying “do it again”. _______________________ [Mission 316 Church is a non-denominational church which meets at the San Marcos Community Center (directly across from the Library at 3 Civic Center Drive in San Marcos – on Sundays at 10 AM.

Library’s Holiday Food for Fines Benefits Locals in Need – Escondido Public Library’s annual “Holiday Food for Fines” program once again proved to be a win-win for those involved. This popular program provided Library patrons the opportunity to clear up to $20.00 in fines from their account through food donations.

The collection drive ran from November 27 through December 30, and the Library accumulated 53 crates of food weighing 1,590 pounds. Proceeds from the drive were donated to Interfaith Community Services in Escondido which distributed the food to families in need throughout the North County area (www.interfaithservices.org/).

The Library’s Customer Services Supervisor Linda Weber remarked, “This event is a wonderful way for our Library patrons not only to clear some of their fines but to simultaneously give back to their community to help those in need.

Many patrons brought in extra food; one patron brought in 2 large boxes of food just to donate. She said it was her turn to give back.” Library programs, events, and services are free and open to the public. For

more information about this program, contact Linda Weber at lweber@escondido.org or 760.839.4613. Information about other events and services can be found at library.escondido.org. The Library is located at 239 S. Kalmia Street, Escondido.

Parking Problem at Church

A few years ago, I caught a story on the radio about a Baptist church that had a problem. It was with the Methodists down the street. Some Baptists were unable to find a space in their own parking lot because members of the nearby Methodist church, which met earlier than the Baptists, got there first. So the Baptist church had a problem.

Now, they COULD have towed the Methodist's cars away. Or, they COULD have patrolled their lot Sunday mornings. Or, they COULD have written a letter to the offending church members imploring them to park elsewhere. But they didn't.

Instead, they did something else. One Sunday morning they stuck a bumper

The Paper • Page 12 • January 18, 2018 computer industry has been scrambling to find fixes. While these vulnerabilities exist in personal PCs the biggest concerns are in the servers and other high speed computers commonly used by governments and corporations. These computers use the same CPU as your PC but each of these powerful computers will contain dozens or even hundreds of these CPUs.

Paul & Nome Van Middlesworth, The Computer Factory

www. thecomputerfactory.net "San Diego's Best Computer Store 2016" Union Tribune readers poll Meltdown and Specter, the sky is falling

You’ve probably heard about it by now.

The entire computer industry is in turmoil over the Specter and Meltdown vulnerabilities. These are recently discovered serious vulnerabilities in the CPUs (microprocessors) used in virtually all computers manufactured since the mid 1990s. For sophisticated hackers, these defects have potentially provided access to all the information on all the world’s computers for over twenty years. Whether or not governments or criminals have discovered and used these vulnerabilities is not known, simply because anyone who had discovered and used this vulnerability would have kept it secret. Our own NSA denies previous knowledge of the problem (opportunity?). For the past several months the

sticker to every car in the lot -- Baptist and Methodist alike. They all got one.

The sticker read: "I'M PROUD TO BE A BAPTIST!" No more problem.

The story of how these twenty year old defects were only discovered in 2017 by four separate and unrelated groups all within months of each other is fascinating. Surely several books and at least one movie are in the offing. The defect in CPUs involve a process that has long been employed in the industry to make computers run faster, today it’s called “speculative execution.”

Back in the late 1960’s dozens of small high tech companies were nipping at IBMs heels. Each was in the race to make the fastest mainframe computers. I was an engineer with one of those companies SEL (Systems Engineering Laboratories) in Fort Lauderdale (Florida’s Silicon Valley). We used the technique that today is known as “speculative execution” to make our computers execute tasks faster. In those days we called it making “blind calls” or “blind fetches.” The speed of computers was limited by their architecture and physics but a computer could be made to execute complex instruction sets quicker if its program could look ahead and “fetch” data that was likely to be needed in subsequent computations. This speed enhancing technique was somewhat hit or miss. While the “blind fetch” usually pulled up the files that were needed, it often pulled many other files that were not needed, these were then discarded.

The methods of accessing and discarding these superfluous files have created the

Death Notices

We love ‘em!

Drop us a note with your thoughts to: thepaper@cox.net

We want to hear your thoughts; so do your neighbors and fellow readers!

In the early days this ‘speculative execution” was an activity of the program (software). In the mid 90s, Intel and other CPU makers encoded this process in silicon. “Speculative execution” became a part of every microprocessor (CPU).

The way computers handle the files in the process of “speculative execution” has created the vulnerability for the Specter and Meltdown exploits. The industry is working feverishly to find fixes for these vulnerabilities. Most of these fixes so far have the unpleasant side affect of slowing down the big, fast multi-microprocessor computers used by governments and industry by as much as 30%. This is a big problem for industrial and Internet servers, and governments, but not for home PC users.

These vulnerabilities don’t invade computers like a virus. The simply allow hackers to steal data. Passwords, bank accounts, personal data and industrial and government secrets that are stored in “servers” are at risk. Home and small business computers are not likely to be hacked because the process is involved and the rewards are limited on individual PCs. While the fixes may slow down large powerful PCs, they will not have noticeable affects on individual PCs. We all face the risk of having our personal data stolen from commercial and government networks. We may also experience unpleasant delays on Internet websites we are accustomed to using. At this point no one really knows how bad the problem is or what affect it may have on our day to day lives. We must wait and see.
