Hedy Lamarr, an Austrian-American actress, co-invented an early version of frequency-hopping spread spectrum communication during World War II. Collaborating with composer George Antheil, they developed a technology designed to prevent radio-controlled torpedoes from being jammed by the enemy. Their system used rapidly changing frequencies to maintain secure communications, laying the groundwork for modern wireless technologies like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS. Though her work was not recognized during her lifetime, Lamarr's invention has had a lasting impact on telecommunications, showcasing her brilliance beyond Hollywood.

On the day after Christmas I took my baby, my constant companion, my 22 year old snuggle to the vet and helped him not hurt any more. It was a tough decision to make but, the best one for him. He loved and trusted me completely. We had many good years. I will miss him for a long time. Rest in peace my love.

'Twas the night before Christmas,
And the quilts were not made.
The threads were all tangled, the cookies delayed.
The stocking weren't hung, the pantry was bare.
The poor weary Quilter, was tearing her hair.
Stacks of fat quarters, tipped over in streams.
Visions of Log Cabins, had turned into dreams.

When what to her wondering eyes should appear,
But a bus full of quilters with all of their gear.
They went straight to work with just a few mutters,
Sorting and stitching and brandishing cutters.
The patterns emerged from all of the clutter,
Like magic the fabrics arranged in a flutter.
Log Cabins, Lone Stars, Flying Geese & Bear Tracks
Each quilt was a beauty-even the backs.

Her house how it twinkled, her quilts how they glowed.
The cookies were baking, the stockings were sewed.
Their work was all done, so they folded their frames,
And packed up their needles, without giving their names.
They boarded the bus, and checked the next address.
More quilts to be made, another quilter in distress.

She heard one voice echo, as they drove out of sight,
Happy quilting to all and to all a good night!

They have changed this site, so I hope this reaches the person I have felt with in the past.
For the lady who knits hats and scarves for homeless people I am in Venus and I have given you yarn several times. I have more to donate. Please contact me here so that we can set a time to meet.
