Our National Parks

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010

Brought to you by Bob’s Gift Baskets

There is something about nature that is both frightening and beautiful. Our National Parks can offer you a wonderful way to look at both aspects of nature. Plan a vacation gift for your family this year or maybe just for the weekend that they will remember the rest of their lives. Visit one or more of our 392 National Parks.

This is not something that you have to travel a great distance to see either. One or more of our National Parks are in just about every state in the union so distance is no excuse. Visit the National Park Web Site to find one near you.

PANORAMIC VIEW OF THE GRAND CANYON FROM PIMA POINT.

Too many of us are satisfied by simply looking at pictures now days. The quote “You’ve seen one park, you’ve seen them all.” comes to mind. Well it just isn’t so. Unless that is you are looking at pictures of parks and not looking at the wide panoramic view of the real thing.

A picture of the Grand Canyon is just that. A picture. Yes it is beautiful, but it is not the real thing. But try standing near the edge of the canyon looking out at the size and scale of what is before you as the wind blows in your face. You can see the beauty and awesome power of nature. You can feel it and being there looking out will trigger a memory that will last a life time. You can’t get that from a picture.

Plan on a visit to one of our National Parks this year with your family and experience the wonder of nature in person.

Defining Moments – Penicillin

Friday, July 23rd, 2010

Brought to you by Bob’s Gift Baskets

It has happened to all of us at one time or another. You cut your finger chopping celery, scrape your knee or perhaps a tooth becomes impacted. You notice a few days later a redness around the cut or scrape. Perhaps a little oozing around the cut or scrape. The solution is simple; you go see your doctor. He cleans the wound and give you a prescription for an anti-biotic. Simple yes?

Penicillin-nucleus-3D

Well it wasn’t always so. In fact there was little that could be done for infections even one hundred years ago. All that could be done was to keep cleaning the wound in hopes that your own body would fight off the bacteria slowly eating away. Many lost limbs or died from infection or blood poisoning.

Penicillin was discovered purely by accident on September 28th 1928. Yes 1928!. It was discovered by Scottish and Nobel Laureate Alexander Fleming when he had accidentally left  a petri dish open containing a Staphyococcus culture from the previous day. Early that morning he noticed a blue-green mold had formed and seemed to be inhibiting the growth of bacteria around the mold. He isolated the mold and named it Penicillin. Yet it wasn’t until 1945 that the miraculous cure was purified and went into mass production.

Today it is widely available under a number of names and has been continually altered as many types of bacteria have become resistant to the drug.

So next time you get a cut or scrape thank your stars that you don’t live in the good old days.
