Doctor Patricia Bath, an African American doctor is the first among women inventors to ever receive a patent for medical invention. She invented a method for removing cataract using laser technique. She patented her invention “Cataract Laserphaco Probe” in 1988 which uses laser power to remove cataract from patient’s eyes replacing the earlier method using a drill like device. She also has another invention to her credit which enabled people who were blind for a long period of time to be able to see again.

Miriam Benjamin, a teacher in Washington D.C was the second African American woman to receive a patent. Miriam Benjamin received a patent in 1888 for her invention she called ‘Gong and Signal Chair’. It allowed customers in restaurants to call the waiter from where they were sitting. There is a button on the chair when pressed signals the waiters’ station and also light up an indicator from where it was signaled. Her invention was even used in the United States House of Representatives.

While researching on monomolecular coatings Katherine Blodgett’s made an amazing discovery in the form of a way to apply the coatings to glass and metal layer by layer. She had found that the thin films when layered to attain a certain thickness completely cancelled the reflection from the underneath surface, resulting in a totally transparent or invisible glass. She has patented the film as well as the process and both have been widely used in many devices such as microscopes, telescopes, camera, and projector lenses and also for limiting distortion in eye glasses. Katherine Blodgett carried on her research and also invented gauge for measuring the thickness of glass films. She was achieved many honors including Photographic Society of America Award and Francis P. Garvin Medal by American Chemical Society.

Bessie Blount, while working as a physical therapist with injured soldiers of World War saw the struggle by the amputees even to have food. This inspired her to invent a device which helps soldiers to feed on their own. She patented her device in 1951. She invented device which is electrically controlled to deliver food to the patient only mouthful at a time. She went on to find another device which can be worn around the neck of the patient. As she didn’t receive enough support from United States Veteran’s Administration or were able to market it herself, she gave up the rights to French Government in 1952.

Dianne Croteau along with her partners, Richard Brault and Jonathan Vinden invented Actar 911, a mannequin designed to teach CPR or Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation technique. She patented it in 1989.

No matter what kinds of Moncler jackets for women, each of them has its own characteristic. All of them speak out your personality and fashion taste perfectly. The moncler clothing label has a rich history having first been created in 1952 near Grenoble in France. The founder of the brand was a Frenchman named Rene Ramillon, and the name came from an abbreviation of the mountain village named Monastier de Clermont .

The company started out producing down Moncler jackets , initially using the lining from sleeping bags, and were designed to keep workers and those undertaking expeditions in the Alps. By 1968 they had made several technological advances in the product and its linings and by 1968, Moncler had been chosen to be the official manufacturer and supplier to the French winter Olympics team.

By 1972 and the next winter Olympics the French skiing team loved the product —-moncler jackets ,but demanded a more lightweight product that would give them more flexibility when practising, and thus more lightweight jackets were created that are still available today.in 2003 the next big change came for the label when it was bought by Italian entrepreneur and fashion enthusiast Remo Ruffini.

Riffini placed a much larger emphasis on the styling of the products to make Moncler one of the leading fashion labels, and in 2006 they launched their first fashion collection for women which has proved to be a huge success.Today Moncler UK can claim to be one of the most sought after fashion labels with retailers queuing up to become official stockists.

I have recently decided to write articles on my favourite subjects: English Sports, English History, English Icons and English Inventions. At present I have written over 100 articles which eventually I shall call “An Englishman’s Favourite Bits Of England” in various Volumes. Please visithttp://Bloggs.Resources.Com where I have listed all my articles to date. As a fan of English Ghost stories I thought readers may be interested in the following true ghost story.

The Brown Dressed Lady of Raynham Hall has been sighted quite a few times over the years. She is so called because of the brown brocade dress she is supposedly seen wearing while wandering the halls and staircase.

According to legend, the Brown Dressed Lady of Raynham is the ghost of Lady Townsend who was married to Charles Townsend, a man known for his fiery temper. When Charles learned of his wife’s infidelity, he punished her by imprisoning her in the family estate at Raynham Hall, located in Norfolk, England. He never allowed her to leave its premises, not even to see her children. She remained there until her death, when she was an old woman.

Over the next two centuries Lady Townsend’s ghost was repeatedly sighted wandering through Raynham Hall, suggesting that she never left its premises even after her death.

For instance, in the early nineteenth century King George IV saw her while he was staying at the hall. He said that she stood beside his bed wearing a brown dress, and that her face was pale and her hair dishevelled.

In 1835 Colonel Loftus sighted her. He was visiting the house for the Christmas holidays and was walking to his room late one night when he saw a figure standing in the hall in front of him. The figure was wearing a brown dress. He tried to see who the woman was, but she mysteriously disappeared.

The next week Colonel Loftus again saw the figure. This time, however, he got a better look at her. He said she was an aristocratic looking woman. She was wearing the same brown satin dress, and her skin glowed with a pale luminescence, but, to his horror, her eyes had been gouged out and he took note of her empty eye-sockets. The incident resulted in several members of staff resigning and a full investigation of Raynham Hall involving local detectives.

Colonel Loftus told others of his experience, and more people then came forward to say that they too had seen a strange figure. An artist drew a painting of the ‘brown lady’ (as she was now known), and this picture was then hung in the room where she was most frequently seen.

A few years later the novelist Captain Frederick Marryat was staying at Raynham Hall. He decided to spend the night in the room in which she was most frequently seen. He studied the painting of her and waited to see her, but she never appeared that night.

However, a few days later he was walking down an upstairs hallway with two friends when they suddenly saw the brown lady. She was carrying a lantern and glided past them as they cowered behind a door. According to Marryat she grinned at them in a ‘diabolical manner’. Before she disappeared, Marryat leapt out from behind the door and fired at her with a pistol that he happened to be carrying. The bullet passed through her and lodged in a wall.

The brown lady continued to be sighted by various people over the next century. However, the most remarkable sighting of her occurred on September 19, 1936 when a photgraph was taken of the ghost. It purports to show the ghost of the ‘Brown Lady’ who haunts Raynham Hall in England. The image is widely believed to be one of the best and most convincing of all the known photographs of ghosts. In many publications it is presented as actual photographic proof of the existence of ghosts.

In the near past, women were considered inferior to men. They were banned from taking part in social life. Their role was limited to domestic activities only. Up to the 19th century it was believed that women were the servants of the homes of their husbands. In those days women were not allowed to take part in political and social life. Rousseau the famous Russian philosopher who never married once said that the dignity of women consists in being unknown to world. The glory is the esteem of her husband; her pleasure the happiness of her family. But time created new situations and the old concepts were rejected.

These days, women take more and more part in the many spheres of life. In some respects they have excelled men. In sports, intellectual and artistic pursuits, in office and industry, they have set a new record of honesty and efficiency. There is practically no field where women are not competing with men. They are police and military officers. They are working as sales girls, air hostess, clerks and steno typists. They are turning out men from the posts of personal secretaries. As the days pass we have to get more and more use to the idea of seeing women working side by side men in riding, driving, flying, playing even fighting. Even in Pakistan we have women athletes, writers, leaders and administrators. Law has given to women a status equal to that of men. In nearly every democratic country women have the right to vote. They are claiming better rights to property.

But thinkers including most of the Muslims do not like the idea of women taking an active part in public life and in the professions. But it is clear that women will not return to their homes. The modern woman argues that she can be a good mother and at the same time a good doctor or a writer or an administrator. Nobody can bind them inside house or snatch their rights. They are sharing their role in the progress of nation.

 

A new study finds the phenomenon of “Cougars” is not a growing trend after all. In fact, it may be nothing more than a myth.

The older woman younger man relationships get plenty of attention thanks to celebrities such as Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher, and movie classics like “The Graduate.” Despite all of this, “Cougars” are not running wild!

Some very interesting research projects are done at The University of Wales Institute’s Cardiff School of Health Sciences. In this newly announced one about online dating, it reveals how both men and women continue to be traditional in their searches for a soulmate or perfect relationship partner.

For example, the study showed most men desire attractive, young females. Often, they look for a much younger woman to be their partner because aging men are looking for ways to feel better about the inevitable process. Young men, aged 20 to 25, are targeting women their own age or slightly younger. No big news headlines here.

Women on the other hand were different but they didn’t cause a big surprise either. Most of the over 40 women “Cougars” in the study weren’t interested in being on the prowl for “Cubs.” They were seeking an older (and hopefully a wealthier man). These findings argue against the “cougar” craze that has become popular on TV shows and movies, such as “Sex and the City,” and Courteney Cox’s ABC Television series “Cougar Town.”

The study published in the Journal of Evolution and Human Behavior involved 22,000 men and women who are users of online dating websites. They came from 14 different countries including Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Germany, Great Britain, Japan, Mexico, Russia, and South Africa.

In leading the study, Psychologist Dr Michael Dunn analyzed the data on the age preferences of women and men using online dating sites. “A critically important consideration for advertisers on online dating sites appears to be the age of a potential partner,” Dunn said. “The transference of female desire from older men to relatively younger men has been argued based on growth of the toy boy phenomenon,” he said. “Our results show clearly that most women across all age groups and cultures, are targeting males either their own age or older.

The average robber will spend under ten minutes in your home looking for your hard earned valuables. Don’t make it easy for him or her to find them. A good way to protect your prized possessions and prevent a thief from getting at them is to hide them in a diversion safe.

Disguised safes are identical to the real thing.  They come in a large number of personal care, household products and food containers with screw-on tops or bottoms. What’s more, they are also weighted to feel like the full containers they look like. Its characteristics like these that make them hard for a robber to discover.

The book safe looks just like a book because it is actually constructed from the real thing. Parts of it have been hollowed out to allow for expensive possessions to be hidden inside. It also a real jacket cover wrapped around it. Novel titles often vary making it that much harder for even a savvy thief to spot it. They will never suspect it especially when placed alongside your other books on the book shelf.

The flowerpot safe looks  like an ordinary plant container and functions like one too, however, inside this real garden planter is a sealed secret compartment where valued belongings can be hidden. The water tray unscrews revealing the hidden compartment which is specially designed to keep moisture and dirt out. Real flowers or artificial ones can be planted in it. Place it among other plants inside or outside of your home. You do not need to be a green thumb to use the flower pot safe. They also make excellent gifts for family and friends.

No thieve will be able to tell the difference. You can even change the faceplate to match the decor of your home. The wall socket safe is easy to install anywhere in your home, office, workshop or garage.

Vary your hiding spots by having different places and only you will know where they are.

Law enforcement agencies everywhere believe that these disguised safes are essential for home security as they have been found to work when it comes to keeping your valuables safe even after a burglar has intruded into your house.

How would you feel if your fitness as a parent were call upon into question? What if someone claimed that your children lack social skills, could not distinguish between right and wrong, and were intellectually stunted-all because of your influence?

Rosa Lopez, the mother of two girls in Spain, found herself facing such charges when her ex-husband took action to obtain legal custody of their children, according to awake 14 July 2010 publication. Rosa was one of the Jehovah’s witnesses, and her ex-husband asserted that her religious beliefs were adversely affecting the girls’ social life, academic performance, and moral judgment. When a local court rejected his arguments, Rosa’s ex-husband appealed to the provincial court.

In a custody case, properly conducted judicial examination strives to remain impartial: it will not become embroiled in religious debates, In effect putting one’s faith on trial. Instead, it will simply address such issues as: What is in the best interests of the child? Is the influence of the custodial parent harmful in some way? Which parent is best suited to care for the child’s needs?

To address such questions in Rosa’s case, the court appointed a psychologist to interview the children and the parents. The result? The psychologist found that although the children had been in the custody of their mother fir six years, they were developing positively in all areas-academically, socially, and within the family unit.

Base on the psychologist’s findings as well as testimony from the parents, the judge found no evidence to indicate that “the minors have been harmed in any way in their emotional or social-cultural development because of their being raised among the religious community of Jehovah’s Witnesses.” He also ruled that the allegations made by Rosa’s ex-husband were “totally arbitrary and without foundation.”

As a result of religious bias or misinformation, some assume that children of Jehovah’s Witnesses are deprived of a “normal” upbringing. However, children who are raised according to Bible principles are not being mistreated. On the country, they are being helped to become balanced, caring, well-rounded individuals.-Ephesians 6:4: 2 Timothy 3:15-17. And with the view of that judgment what is your own opinion on difference religious concept and doctrine.
