Howard Co. Forum Our first Unit Meeting in September was, I think, exactly what the League is Patapsco Middle School about. We first interacted in an intimate setting with our local county Board of 5:30 PM Elections, then were updated on a local Study, this year an Equity in Education 8885 Old Frederick Rd. Study led by Krista Threefoot, our Education Director. If you missed this meeting, Ellicott City, MD you still have a chance to catch the October meetings October 16 or 17; see Thea Jones’ report later on in this Newsletter. OCTOBER 3 LVWHC Board Meeting Last month I incorrectly stated that Unit Meetings are open to members only. On Oakland Manor the contrary, Unit Meetings are open to the public, BUT only members can vote, if 7:00 – 8:30 PM that is part of the program for that particular meeting. 5430 Vantage Point Rd. The League is re-thinking our voter-registration strategy. We will continue to work Columbia, MD with the Board of Elections in the high schools, but we are also considering how to reach other populations that are under-registered. OCTOBER 5 Oakland Mills Fall Festival The League has also had “Get Out the Vote” as part of our mission for a long time, 11:00 AM – 4:00 PM and we are re-thinking how to expedite that in this new world of social media.

  • Mothers of Inventions,” the Washington Post, Wednesday, March 12 1997; Page H01
    Recognizing Women’s Contributions to Engineering and Technology SME, WESTEC, Los Angeles, CA, 06-03-14-06 Ileana Costea, California State University, Northridge Abstract: The article presents women’s noteworthy contributions to science, technology, and specifically to manufacturing. The role of women in creating a balanced workplace environment is also discussed. Many inventions which are still in use today were made by women: the non-reflective glass, the windshield wiper, noise-less trains, liquid paper, the ubiquitous square-bottom supermarket brown bag, and reducing air and noise pollution methods, to name just a few. Yet, when you look at lists on categories such as inventors, scientists, engineers, Nobel Prizes winners you see mostly men’s names. A few such lists were examined by the author. In the list of famous scientists, in physical sciences only one woman, Marie Curie. [1]: Archimedes, Aristotle, Niels Bohn, Nicholas Copernicus, Marie Curie, Charles Darwin, Leonardo da Vinci, Rene Descartes, Thomas Alva Edison, Albert Einstein, Ben Frankiln, Galilei Galileo, Isaac Newton, Max Planck, Wilhelm Conrad Rontgen, Carl Sagan, Nikola Tesla. In a list of 43 famous engineers there are only five women.[2]: Bonnie Dunbar - NASA astronaut, Beulah Louise Henry ("the lady Edison" for the many inventions), Grace Murray Hopper, a computer engineer, Judith Resnik - Challenger astronaut, electrical engineer, Katherine Stinson - the first female graduate of N.C. State University's College of Engineering. In a long list of 209 only the following are women [3]: Emile Berliner, Katherine Blodgett, Bette Nesmith Graham, Erna Schneider Hoover, Margaret Knight, Stephanie Kwolek, Hedy Lamarr, Olivia Poole. A list of women inventors is given on-line at [4].
