The first computer hard disk used. The hovercraft invented by Christopher Cockerell. As a result of the joint research of Sherman and Smith, the Scotchgard™ Protector was launched in the marketplace. Secretary Bette Nesmith Graham invented "Mistake Out" later renamed, Liquid Paper. The first commercial videotape recorder is introduced. The device is intended for industrial applications, and it quickly revolutionizes the way television programming is produced. Norman Bier invents plastic contact lenses

The fastening of papers has been historical referenced to as early as the 13th century, when people put ribbon through parallel incisions in the upper left hand corner of pages. Later people started to wax the ribbons to make them stronger and easier to undo and redo. This was the way people clipped papers together for the next six hundred years. \n\nIn 1835, a New York physician named John Ireland Howe invented a machine for mass producing straight pins. Straight pins then became a popular way to fasten papers together, although they were not originally designed for that purpose. Straight pins were designed to be used in sewing and tailoring, to temporally fasten cloth together. \n\nJohan Vaaler, a Norwegian inventor with a degree in electronics, science and mathematics, invented the paperclip in 1899. He received a patent for his design from Germany in 1899, since Norway had no patent laws at that time. Johan Vaaler was an employee at a local invention office when he invented the paperclip. He received an American patent in 1901 -- patent abstract  "It consists of forming same of a spring material, such as a piece of wire, that is bent to a rectangular, triangular, or otherwise shaped hoop, the end parts of which wire piece form members or tongues lying side by side in contrary directions." Johan Vaaler was the first person to patent a paperclip design, although other unpatented designs might have existed first. \n\nAmerican inventor, Cornelius J. Brosnan filed for an American patent for a paperclip in 1900. He called his invention the "Konaclip". \n\nBut it was a company called the Gem Manufacturing Ltd. of England who first designed the double oval shaped standard looking paperclip. This familiar and famous paperclip, was and still is referred to as the "Gem" clip. William Middlebrook, of Waterbury, Connecticut, patented a machine for making paper clips of the Gem design in 1899. The Gem paperclip was never patented.

Paper, thin sheets of compressed vegetable cellulose fibers. Paper is used for writing and printing, for wrapping and packaging, and for a variety of special purposes ranging from the filtration of precipitates from solutions to the manufacture of certain types of building materials. Paper is a necessity in modern civilization, and the development of machinery for its high-speed production has been largely responsible for the increase in literacy and the raising of educational levels of people throughout the world.\n\n\nThe basic process of making paper has not changed in more than 2,000 years. It involves two stages: the breaking up of raw material in water to form a suspension of individual fibers and the formation of felted sheets by spreading this suspension on a suitable porous surface, through which excess water can drain.\n\nIn making paper by hand, the raw material—straw, leaves, bark, rags, or other fibrous material—is placed in a vat or trough and is pounded with a heavy pestle or hammer to separate the fibers. During the first portion of this operation, the material is washed with running water to remove impurities, but after the fibers have been sufficiently broken up, they are kept in suspension, and the water in the vat is not changed. At this stage the liquid material, called half stuff, is ready for the actual process of papermaking. The chief tool of the papermaker is the mold, a reinforced sheet of metal mesh having either a square mesh pattern, called a wove pattern, or a pattern of more widely spaced longitudinal wires held together with smaller transverse wires, called a laid pattern. The mold pattern imprints itself on the finished sheet of paper, and thus handmade papers that are not given special finishes are identified as wove or laid papers, depending on the style of mold that is used in their making.\n\nThe mold is placed inside a removable wooden frame called a deckle, which forms a low rim around its edge. The papermaker dips the mold and deckle into a vat containing the half stuff; when the mold and deckle are removed from the vat, the surface of the mold is coated with a thin film of fiber-water mixture. The device is then shaken forward and backward and from side to side. This shaking has two effects; it distributes the mixture evenly on the surface of the mold and causes the individual fibers to interlock with those adjacent, giving strength to the sheet. While the device is being shaken, much of the water from the mixture drains out through the mold mesh. The device, with its formed sheet of wet paper, is then laid aside until the paper is sufficiently cohesive to permit the removal of the deckle.\n\n\nAfter the deckle has been taken from the mold, the mold is turned over and the sheet of paper is laid smoothly on a sheet of woven woolen cloth, called a felt. Another felt is laid over the sheet of paper, and the process is repeated; the process of placing the paper between two felts is known as couching. When a number of sheets of paper have been interleaved with felts, the entire pile, called a post, is placed in a hydraulic press and subjected to a pressure of 100 or more tons, expelling most of the water remaining in the paper. The sheets of paper are then separated from the felts, stacked, and pressed. The process of pressing the stack of paper is repeated several times, and each time the stack is built up in a different order with the individual sheets in different positions relative to one another. This procedure is called exchanging, and its repetition improves the surface of the finished paper. The final stage in papermaking is drying. The paper is hung, in groups of four or five sheets, over ropes in a special drying room until its moisture has almost completely evaporated.\n\nPapers that are to be used for writing or printing with ink require additional treatment following drying, because without such treatment the paper would absorb ink and yield fuzzy lines or impressions.

The first lithographic offset printing press was created in England around 1875 and was designed for printing on metal. The offset cylinder was covered with specially treated cardboard that transferred the printed image from the litho stone to the surface of the metal. About five years later, the cardboard covering of the offset cylinder was changed to rubber, which is still the most commonly used material.\n\nThe first person to use an offset press to print on paper was probably American Ira Washington Rubel in 1903. He got the idea accidentally by noticing that whenever a sheet of paper was not fed into his lithographic press during operation, the stone printed its image to the rubber-covered impression cylinder, and the next impression had an image on both sides: direct litho on the front and an image from the rubber blanket on the back. Rubel then noticed that the image on the back of the sheet was much sharper and clearer than the direct litho image because the soft rubber was able to press the image onto the paper better than the hard stone. He soon decided to build a press which printed every image from the plate to the blanket and then to the paper. Brothers Charles and Albert Harris independently observed this process at about the same time and developed an offset press for the Harris Automatic Press Company soon after.

paper is pulpified wood that's dried into thin sheets.  Any liquids (grease, water, etc) will soak into the mix and separate the fibers, causing it to become transparent.  Except with water, it will ultimately evaporate out.  Grease doesn't evaporate away at room temperature like water does, so the transparency remains.

Sir James Dewar (September 20, 1842 – March 27, 1923) was a Scottish chemist and physicist.\n\nHe was the youngest of six boys, and he lost his parents at the age of 15. He was born in Kincardine-on-Forth and was educated at Dollar Academy and the University of Edinburgh, where he graduated. Later he became professor at the University of Cambridge 1875 and was a member of the Royal Institution 1877. He developed a chemical formula for benzene and performed extensive work in spectroscopy for more than 25 years. In 1891 he discovered a process to produce liquid oxygen in industrial quantities. He developed an insulating bottle, Dewar flask, still named after him, to study low temperature gas phenomena. He also used this bottle to transport liquid gases like hydrogen 1898. In 1905 he observed that cold charcoal could produce a vacuum. This technique was quite useful for experiments in atomic physics. He is credited as the inventor of the vacuum flask.\n\nAlong with Sir Frederick Augustus Abel, developed the smokeless explosive whose common name is cordite.\n\nHe died in London.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Dewar

Inventor of Luminol\n\nIn 1895, two scientists named Wiedemann and Schmid, dissolved cathode-ray irriaded alkali halides such as NaCl, NaBr, KCl, and KBr, in water.  They noticed a very weak bluish light.  They also detected light production when irriaded calcium carbonate was “attacked” by aqueous hydrochloracetic acid, or phosphoric acid4.\n\nLater in 1928, a chemist by the name of Albrecht discovered a specific chemical, that when placed in an aqueous alkaline solution emitted a blue-green light with a fair amount of intensity.  Along with the light, virtually no heat was produced.  This solution contained hydrogen peroxide along with a catalyst.  The catalyst was an alkaline medium with a pH between ten and eleven.  This specific chemical was to later on be called luminol.

Thomas Alva Edison (February 11, 1847 – October 18, 1931) was an American inventor and businessman who developed many devices which greatly influenced life in the 20th century. Dubbed "The Wizard of Menlo Park" by a newspaper reporter, he was one of the first inventors to apply the principles of mass production to the process of invention, and can therefore be credited with the creation of the first industrial research laboratory. Some of the inventions credited to him were not completely original, but alterations of earlier patents (most famously the light bulb), or were actually the work of his numerous employees. Nevertheless, Edison is considered one of the most prolific inventors in history, holding 1,097 U.S. patents in his name, as well as many patents in the United Kingdom, France, and Germany.
