Computer pioneer and mathematician Kathleen H.V. Booth¹ in the 1950s, loading a program into the All Purpose Electronic X-Ray Computer², known as the 32-bit APE(X)C which she co-designed and built with her husband Andrew D. Booth³.
She helped to design and build three of the world’s first operational computers and wrote two of the earliest books on computer design? and programming?; she was also credited with the invention in 1947 of one of the first assembly languages? for their Automatic Relay Calculator called ARC Contracted Notation?.
On November 11, 1955 Kathleen Booth typed some French words into a computer: ‘C’est un exemple d’une traduction fait par la machine à calculer installée au laboratoire de Calcul de Birkbeck College, Londres.’ Out came the English equivalent:
‘This is an example of a translation made by the machine for calculation installed at the laboratory of computation of Birkbeck College, London.’
It was probably the first public demonstration of what today we call a translation app?.
With husband Andrew Booth, together they developed the Booth multiplier?, a highly complex algorithm that she once jokingly dismissed as an ‘arithmetical routine devised over egg and chips in the ABC tea shop in Southampton Row.’

Lucky for K Benz it was the former, otherwise we may not hanker for a Mercedes car
————————-
Bertha Benz and her husband Karl Benz had invented the first gasoline-powered automobile, but no one knew how to use it, leaving the invention unused. Everyone called Karl a fool for creating what they considered a ridiculous tricycle
To make matters worse, Karl took refuge in alcohol to accompany his depression.
The Benz family lived in Mannheim with their five children, and Bertha had to visit her parents in Pforzheim, almost 100 kilometers to the south. To support her husband and make sure that his work was not in vain, Bertha took courage and decided to set off on the tricycle to visit them.
The journey took almost a full day, a reasonable amount of time considering the power of the vehicle in the late 19th century. Bertha had to stop several times at pharmacies to refuel with gasoline, which was sold there at the time.
She visited two tanners to repair the brakes, thus inventing brake pads, and a blacksmith to fix the transmission chain. When a fuel line clogged, Bertha used a pin to repair it and insulated a wire with a makeshift tie.
After arriving at her destination, Bertha informed her husband of the success of the trip by telegram. The next day, she set off for Mannheim, completing the return journey.
The trip attracted a lot of attention, as Bertha met many curious people along the way. It was then that people began to understand that the automobile was not just a curious toy, but a practical and fast means of transportation.
Karl became instantly famous and soon everyone wanted a replica of his car, leading to numerous orders. Bertha’s trip was also an opportunity for her to test the vehicle from a user’s perspective, identifying potential improvements.
She suggested adding a gear to the transmission to increase speed, thus reducing travel time and allowing it to overtake wagons, adding a fourth wheel for greater stability, improving the brakes, and installing a fuel filter. From there, what would become a large automobile empire, known to this day, was born.
Dreadful living conditions in the late 1930s in the US, women usually bore the brunt.

Gullible governments conned by biotech, at taxpayers’ expense:
This week we in New Zealand were subjected to a piece of biotech propaganda from the Hon. David Seymour MP, leader of the ACT Party and soon to be Deputy Prime Minister. Dressed in a white coat Seymour spoke to us while visiting Ruminant Biotech. He held up a bolus (or veterinary pill) the size of a potato and announced that put in a cow it releases a ‘very special and secret synthesised compound’ that reduces the cow’s methane emissions by 75 percent.
The bolus is a slow-release pill that continues to work for six months. Seymour described this as a real win-win because we can keep consuming steaks and dairy products without worrying about climate change. He concluded, ‘Science is awesome and the real solution to our climate challenges.’
The project has received $7.8 million of funding via the NZ government body AgriZeroNZ, and it’s envisaged approval for on-farm use in NZ’s massive dairy industry will be fast-tracked to begin in 2025.
Veganism has never looked more attractive.
More examples in the rest of this excellent article.
The tendency of governments to fling money at ‘scientific’ solutions to essentially political problems is just the latest manifestation of the shortcomings of the political class.
They will do almost anything to avoid direct confrontation with hard reality.

From The Oz….
Ms Carnell, chief minister between 1995 and 2000, said Labor’s election victory extending their reign of 23 years was not “good for democracy”, and the Canberra Liberals needed to move to the political centre or “centre left” to be returned to government.
An early swing to the Liberals’ turned into a 32.9 per cent primary vote compared with Labor’s 34.5 per cent, but Ms Carnell backed “moderate” Elizabeth Lee to continue leading the party.
“I think the great dilemma is, why bother with democracy?,” she told The Australian. “If you’re not going to change governments, the whole point of electing governments is that you can change them from time to time. You can keep the bastards honest … that’s the point.
“It’s certainly really hard for the Liberals. There’s a whole generation of Canberrans who have never known anything else.
“They weren’t born when I was in parliament.”
There are a number of points here.
Point one is that the ACT should not be self-governed.
Point two is that I am unaware that the ACT Liberals were conservative or hard right so why then does Carnell say that the Liberals should move to the political centre of centre left? That’s just ridiculous.
Point three is that Carnell is sadly right about Labor’s electoral win on the weekend not being good for democracy and the question should be asked….’why bother with democracy?’
I’m curious, do the ACT Liberals stand for anything right of centre/conservative? Did the ACT Liberals vociferously oppose the ACT government’s outrageous takeover of Calvary Hospital? Or are the ACT Liberals, in their current guise just a vanilla essence version of Labor’s vanilla extract?
Mrs Benz was one smart, hard working good looking lady.
There’s a little more to the story. She had two of her boys help her push the motorwagen away from the house so as not to wake Karl, as shown in the painting.

The same phenomenon is rearing its head in the UK as the Starmtroopers prepare to shake the tax tree.
Even the BBC is prompted to report objectively on the likely negative returns of making the rich pay their ‘fair share’ in a country with the vast majority dependent on ‘benefits’ of many kinds and the tax take massively skewed to the ‘wealthy’ and particularly those actively interested in remaining that way.
And she certainly is thinking about that risk; currently contemplating the traditional Labour hollow logs, while lying her way into enshrining bracket creep to drag more tax out of average PAYE punters.
Anecdotal as it is, smart people with discretionary assets in the UK are presently taking steps to protect against CGT and inheritance tax theft.

Ireland’s desperate appeal for its citizens living in Australia to return home and help build houses has not gone as planned, with expats declaring they’d prefer to stay Down Under.
The Irish Department of Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation, and Science launched an ad campaign in October, targeting Irish residents abroad.
The campaign encouraged those with construction skills to return home as part of a multi-billion-dollar government plan to address the housing crisis and boost home supply by 2030.
One campaign poster read: ‘You built Sydney, now come home and build back home.’
However, the campaign sensationally backfired it was shared on the department’s Facebook account, with many Irish vowing to stay in Australia.
‘It’s a hard pass. Australia is good to those who work hard,’ one said.
‘I don’t think the Irish want to come back home. I know they love living in Oz,’ a second added.
A third joked: ‘The weather alone would keep them here’.
Tens of thousands of Irish people were approved to live and work in Australia in 2023, with the majority being young skilled workers.
In the 12 months to July 2023, more than 21,000 Irish citizens were granted working holiday visas in Australia – the largest amount in more than 16 years.

True that. Stupid, stupid man.
I wonder what happened to his missus’ Birkin handbag? Clearly there were some vestiges of modernity that the family enjoyed.
If instead of the stick he’d held his arms up in surrender I suspect the drone operator would’ve reported that to his superior and Israel would have accepted his surrender. And he’d still be alive, albeit in Israeli custody. Again.
Bibi has done something else.
He has exposed the UN for the posturing, useless, terror-endorsing, money grubbing edifice it has become.
UNRWA busy in Gaza, aiding and abetting Hamas, the UN “peacekeepers” in southern Lebanon, watching on as Hezbollah built tunnels, fired rockets and terrorised northern Israel under their very noses.
Meanwhile, the oleaginous, money hoovering slobs on First Avenue tutt-tutted about cease-fires and proportionality.
He has more than made up for the deficiencies of last year, much of which can be sheeted home to others who will remain nameless – such is the price of real leadership, the place where the buck should stop but rarely does.

Hate Israel’s prime minister all you like – and our Foreign Minister, Penny Wong, has made clear her loathing – Netanyahu has led Israel to stunning battlefield successes that could finally give his country peace after 76 years of struggle.
I have always liked Bibi. Look – he is a pollie, and as such, he will always push the boundaries to stay in power. The corruption insinuation put aside (I have no idea of the actuality), I agreed with his stance on the judiciary. There must be a separation of powers, and the judiciary should stick to upholding the Constitution and not go “off the farm”.
But even his political enemies must agree that he has been a wonderful leader after the Oct7 crisis. Yes, the question of the hostages has been virtually an insurmountable problem for the ultimate survival of Israel. Hamas had to be hunted down and destroyed. Given the inhumanity of Hamas, it was a wonderful thing to have got back the hostages that they did in the early days.
Under Bibi’s leadership Israel has shown its tenacity, its courage and its stunning technological expertise.

This overnight in Sydney’s East. From the Daily Telegraph. Yesterday morning it was Lewis Continental Kitchen in Bondi that was torched in suspicious circumstances. Bronte, Tamarama and Bondi Beach are ‘Jewish areas’.
Police launch investigation into Hamas-related graffiti across Bronte, Tamarama and Bondi Beach
The Australian Jewry Council has urged authorities to crack down on a “growing pattern” of acts intended to “intimidate our community” after Hamas-related graffiti was sprayed across the city’s east.
An investigation is underway after police discovered Hamas-related graffiti in multiple locations across Sydney’s eastern suburbs overnight including Bronte, Tamarama and Bondi Beach.
Officers located the graffiti on “multiple structures” across the three beaches shortly before 11pm on Sunday night.
The Executive Council of Australian Jewry urged authorities to ‘put an end to this hatred’.
“This daubing of public property with the name of a proscribed terrorist organisation is intended to distress and intimidate our community and make us feel unsafe in this country,” Co-Chief Executive Alex Ryvchin said.
“It is part of a pattern of behaviour that is escalating in areas with large Jewish communities as we approach the first anniversary of the October 7 horrors. Sydneysiders and our community should not have to face these acts of support for a group that just carried out the mass slaughter of our brethren and has pledged to attack Jews throughout the world.
“People have need to think about the effect of their conduct and face consequences for their actions. We urge the authorities to investigate and put an end to this hatred.”
The incident was first revealed by 2GB radio, with listeners sharing photos of the defacement.
Police have launched Strike Force Cadomin to investigate the graffiti and are urging anyone with information to contact Crime Stoppers at 1800 333 000 as inquiries continue.
I guess the above must also be ‘letting of steam‘. Ho hum, the grub from Grayndler’s ‘soshul coheshun’ is working well, isn’t it?
They’re coming for us Jews and they’re no longer even hiding it. And they’re laughing because they’re empowered by a disgraceful federal and state governments and by politically and ideologically corrupted police forces.
Oh and memo to our resident Nazi, any condemnation of the above? Last week, our resident Nazi accused me of ‘whining’ because I object to Hamas red triangles being daubed on Jewish bakeries and in suburbs where lots of Jews live. But here’s the thing, I don’t want to see Hamas red triangles daubed anywhere.
By the way, since Muslim and leftist scum are allowed to ‘let off steam’, why can’t an 82 year old woman from Five Dock also be allowed to ‘let off steam‘?
Much debate on twitter about whether Mrs Sinwar’s handbag* was the real McCoy.
I will say this, muslim women go for expensive handbags as a substitute for being able to dress fashionably and it was the one thing she took with her when she hunkered down on 6 October 2023.
It’s possible also that it was a high end fake, which is apparently a thing in Gaza.

Heavy police presence for Indigenous protesters at war memorial ahead of King’s visit
There are Indigenous rights protesters at the war memorial in Canberra where the King is expected later today.
Crowds have lined the roads to catch a sight of King Charles III. He is expected to later lay a wreath in the Hall of Memory.
The protesters are chanting, “no pride in genocide” and “always was, always will be Aboriginal land”.
They have large banner which reads, “decolonise”.
There is a heavy police presence. They appear to be trying to move the protesters away.
Fact check?
1) an examination to test or ascertain accuracy, quality, or satisfactory condition.
“a campaign calling for regular checks on gas appliances”
2) a stopping or slowing of progress.
“there was no check to the expansion of the market”
In j’ism, a fact check is meant to check facts. Stop ’em stone-cold dead.
It really is nothing more than a j’ismist calling someone a liar, relying on some long-lost professional reputation for honesty and integrity.
I saw a clip where Mike Johnson was being interviewed, the j’ismist quizzing him about all the heat FEMA was feeling. Johnson mentioned that under Biden Harris a program had been set up to divert FEMA money to illegal immigrants. The bobble-head quickly leapt in saying that it had actually been set up under Trump. Johnson rebutted that it had not, it was set up by Biden Harris, adding that there was no emergency to address under Trump. The j’ismist said one more time “Yes they did. Anyway…” and tried to move on.
How clever do these idiots think they are. They argue like children. You just know Johnson was seconds away from being told his pants were on fire.
The RBA has crunched the numbers and produced the graphs to help even politicians understand:
Rents have been increasing due to population growth driven demand and inadequate supply exacerbated by inflationary cost blowouts and a long term skilled labour shortage, not the cash rate rises.

If the minors got critical mass more often, especially to the right, it would be more effective. The UK swings a lot more electorally, despite their First Past the Post system hampering the effect. Regardless of the system set up, apathetic voters will always win out if so inclined and we seem to have an abundance here. I’d love to see the LNP get spooked by losing a seat or two to One Nation or Family First.

The schools are owned by the Uniting Church, which was formed in 1977 by liberal Methodists, Presbyterians and Congregationalists.
Which seems to be so useless that they are still “uniting” after 47 years and not yet “united”.
I was there for the ‘opening’ weekend. Seven-year-old me heard them say they wanted to bring other denominations into the fold which seemed a curious detail to me at the time but was a red flag in hindsight.
Oh, give it a rest. What a joke. OK – minnimax is a staggeringly stupid useless evil arsehole, but he doesn’t seem to have realised the implications of some recent comments of Dr Mutton’s (who I’m no fan of either).
If the stupid incompetent arseholes allowing these obscene displays of Jew hatred to continue unabated in Sydneystan and Mosquebourne don’t put a stop to them, then they (and their pet nayzees) may be in for a rude shock once the albansleazy goat rodeo is punted next year.
Dr Mutton has made it clear he wants these weekly outrages to stop and he has hinted he will take direct action to ensure they are and that the perpetrators are arrested and deported.
Which will no doubt be an unwelcome surprise for minnimax, nanna webb, her useless keystones and the goat forking inbred nayzee Jew haters.
Unfortunately, I just can’t see anything remotely like this actually happening.
I’d pay good money to visit this family and have a feed with them on their property.

Watching a few conservative YouTubers on the weekend, I’m not sure why they’ve latched onto this argument saying “if Palestine is a country/people, who was their first Prime Minister or King or Queen…”
I’m not entirely sure of the point of this line of argument. Anyone?
I simply call “Palestine” a made-up country. Is as real as Narnia.

Out of snake season, I am a habitual “distance” scanner. I reckon it is an evolutionary thing since our ancestors were always looking for game. With me – its looking at condition of pasture/cowcondition/roos/wombats/pigs/weedgrowth/fence condition etc etc. And, of course the weather…..its the best thing about living “rural”.

Thorpe at it again:
Indigenous senator Lidia Thorpe interrupts King Charles’ welcome ceremonyThe senator unleashed on King Charles following the conclusion of his speech to Parliament House on Monday.
The Great Hall was completely silent when Ms Thorpe began her outburst.
‘You committed genocide against our people, give us our land back!’ she shouted, while draped in a native fur coat.
‘Give us what you stole from us! Our bones, our skulls, our people, you destroyed our land!
‘Give us a treaty, we want a treaty in this country! This is not your land, this is not your land! You are not my King, you are not our King.
‘You’re a genocidalist!’
As Thorpe was dragged out of sight, the audience heard her yell: ‘F*** the colony, f*** the colony.’

Of course ICAC will not even go near this. If with substance seems a tad more serious that a bottle of Grange though.
I go out just now to collect the washing from the Cafe Hills Hoist. Always necessary to take food with me as I get a lot of assistants when I do that. Some aren’t toilet trained especially well, which means that piece of washing needs immediate rewashing.
Fortunately that wasn’t necessary, but youngest helper kooka arrived on the fence while this was transpiring, so I went over. He instead leapt into the air, and came down with a black prince cicada. I think I am the last thing the unfortunate cicada saw before the final curtain, since it was looking at me from inside a kooka beak.
Kook! kook! says youngest kooka excitedly as I return the unnecessary mince to my pocket. Off he goes with unfortunate cicada to feed his granny’s family – she’s about 16 years old and has had many kids. Whereupon I collect the rest of my washing.
You must learn to be clear about your opinions.

2) I wonder if any of these organisations has links to unsavoury folks. I’m sure it does. The “OnePath” network seems like it does ISIS videos??? (I haven’t looked that far yet tbh, but it has that feel about it).
And (3), This is the woman starting the “Australia Party?”

King’s visit ‘difficult for First Nations people’: Cox
Greens First Nations spokeswoman Dorinda Cox says King Charles’ visit to Australia “will be difficult for many First Nations people” and has used the opportunity to reissue calls for a federal truth-telling process.
“This visit will be difficult for many First Nations people, who still feel the injustice every day of colonialism, especially our stolen generations, which are perpetuated through systemic and structural racism and discrimination,” she said.
“Visiting memorials and attending charity events is not changing the harrowing injustices and ongoing unacceptable rates of deaths of our people in Australia.
“First Nations justice, truth telling and healing needs to be a priority. The King should be clear in his recognition and support of this. He now needs to be on the right side of history.
“We need the Labor government to have clear instructions from their sovereign head that we can’t continue on this path if we want peace and healing, this comes with accepting responsibility for the role, actions and destructive impacts of the Crown.”
Senator Cox said that Australia “remains the only Commonwealth country without a treaty with its First Peoples” and said that a federal truth-telling process “must be our priority for a collective, First Nations led pathway forward, together”.
Always the victims, ay, Dorinda?
A skit of a hapless Royal being yelled at by a fur-coated chunky watermelon bankrupt bikie consort who attends strip clubs for milestone birthdays wouldn’t get out of the writers room. Too silly.
I’m beginning to think that it wopulod have been kinder for the British to have allowed all the aborigines to have died back in the 19th century.
At least then our current “aboriginal” activists who are al 50% or more white and who happily enjoy all the benefits of whitefella civislisation, would not be here whining all the time.
Go and live in a humpoy being beaten up by your menfolk, Linda, you slag.

You’d think they would be more concerned by the immigration policies of successive governments reducing their tiny numbers even further.
With each year, more and more immigrants come in who have zero sympathy for the home grown moochers.
Why would they,. they are and were not oppressors and let’s face it, the first nations (ha!) are not the oppressed they make out to be.
Even with a bunch of people joining them for benefits, their percentage of the Australian population continues to drop further into obscurity.
We do however, have the ever present whine of envy, hate and spite.

These are the Kinds of People Who are Breaking In
These are the Kinds of People Who are Breaking In
From Paul Ham’s book “Vietnam:The Australian War.”
A wounded soldier, who had just left a repatriation hospital on crutches, encountered an aggressive female student, in the street.
“…did you fall over, chasing after a Vietnamese woman whilst trying to rape her?” she said.
The soldier stopped, and thought, “I’ve heard of this attitude, I’ve seen it from a distance, but here I am confronted with it.”
She continued “You people and the Americans have plundered the innocent Vietnamese for many years. Eventually, the Vietnamese will gain victory over you, despite your barbaric acts.”
The soldier interjected “You have first hand knowledge of this situation?”
“No I don’t and neither do you because you wouldn’t have a bloody clue..”
The soldier paused, and thoughtfully replied that, despite “your recently acquired knowledge…you can’t come to terms with any reality beyond your own..”
“Oh, I see.” she shot back. “the philosophical digger.Well, I suppose you should be a digger, a digger of graves, and I suppose you should be philosophical because you’ve obviously got a guilty convenience, which you should have.”
“Look, darling,” said the soldier, “I think I’m not philosophical. I’m just bitter. I’m very bitter at the fact that I’m not you.”
“What the hell are you talking about?” she asked.
“Well, I estimate your age to be roughly…mine, and I’m blue collar, I suppose. I suggest you are highly motivated…you’re going to be a white collar or professional person and things are open to you as far as the future is concerned…you’ll be making all the money shortly, upon graduation, you’ll have a job, a comfortable job…”
He concluded: “some people are getting their arzes shot off..if you are that concerned for humanity, why don’t you do something for them?” And he hobbled away, on his crutches. (Pages 602 – 603.)
With apologies to Dire Straits but…
Is it coincidental that Industrial Disease rhymes with Anthony Albanese?
I think not.
Last week we were told people in northern gaza were on the verge of starvation,
I bet Mrs Sinwar is still as fat today as she was when she walked into the tunnel with her husband and children hours before the October 7 massacres. We know how Hamas siphons the dosh sent in by the UN and charities into building tunnels to rape and murder Jewish men and women and I reckon all the food being delivered into Gaza is being gobbled up by the fat Mrs Sinwar.
As an aside, many Muslim Arab men, being the sicko perverts they are, are obsessed with both corpulent women and hymens. It’s a sick culture.
Bikers’ moll Lidia Thorpe has form.

I’d suggest she also has problems.
Now reduced to four members in a 25 seat parliament, Labor fights back:
An Indigenous member of the Northern Territory parliament has urged remote community residents living in the long grass to return to country to escape “bad laws”.
Mulka MLA Yingiya Guyulu posted the warning on social media at the weekend advising countrymen sleeping rough or in town camps in the major centres to consider returning home.
“Please think about going back to your communities or even back to your homeland communities,” he wrote.
“Because we are now seeing an NT CLP Government that is introducing very BAD laws that will increase systemic racism for our Indigenous Sovereign people of this land.
“We are going to see an increased number of Aboriginal people – adults and children in jail. “We are going into a thick deep rain. We are being disempowered further by a colonial government and we must hold strong to our culture so that we can come out the other side. Come back to homeland country where you are safe.”

There are three, so I don’t know where that leaves the third.
Went out in the back yard to see Quardle attacking one of her chicks. Really hoeing into it. The poor bugger was on it’s back while she went him with some vicious pecking. It went on and on and on, far beyond a motherly chiding.
I intervened with some beef, and the chick flew off, and a bit later Awk went up and gave it a feed.
Women.
Thorpe has clearly broken her oath and should be removed from parliament.
If she isn’t then the is no reason that the people should abide by any laws passed by the house. You cannot have it both ways.
I really like James Macpherson. He doesn’t flinch, quiver or recoil when it comes to stating the truth, particularly about the religion of pieces. He doesn’t care about being ‘liked’.
