Turtle Day


We hear about them in parables of being slow and plodding, steady and methodical, and being occasionally obsessed with Ninjitsu, news reporters, and pizza. We are, of course, talking about Turtles! Turtles are a type of reptile that exists in many environments throughout the world and have found their way into literature, poetry, and parable throughout the world’s history. World Turtle Day celebrates these noble reptiles and their place in the world and encourages people to take action to help protect both the common pet turtle and the ever endangered sea turtle.

So let's make an effort in protecting these guys

What a coincidence!The world has now truly begun to understand the value of healthcare workers amidst the corona virus pandemic and guess what its nurse day.In my opinion this nurse day should be celebrated like none before as it is now that we need them the most. But mark my word this isn't going to be another long essay about the corona virus.(You don't deserve even that you virus!)This will be like usual a fun ,entertaining, and factual piece of  entertainment . SO Buckle up,tie your seatbelts and let's go(God it's been so long since I have been on a flight) Historically, as well as today, nurses are at the forefront of fighting epidemics and pandemics -  providing high quality and respectful treatment and care.

August 19 is the day we should celebrate the birthday of Orville Wright who was one half of the brothers who invented a three axis control airplane.This day was created by America's former president Franklin D. Roosevelt.Every year Americans fly planes painted with the color of their flag. Fun facts: 1.On December 17th, 1903, the two brothers, with no formal training, took to the skies over the dunes of North Carolina’s Outer Banks and launched into history. 2.The Wright Brother’s father feared losing both of his sons in an airplane crash, so they promised never to fly together.

Virus Day @ 3rd OCT 2018

“VIRUS”… Not such a pleasant word right. We always believe that viruses are pathogens that invade our body. Most of the diseases around are caused by viruses. Viruses are present everywhere even in the air you breath. We often get confused between bacteria and a virus. A big difference is that bacteria are living things while viruses are considered to be non living. Got a shock? But when viruses attack or invade a host cell they are called to be living because they can reproduce at that time. How were viruses discovered? In 1884, the French microbiologist Charles Chamberland invented a filter, known today as the Chamberland filter or Chamberland–Pasteur filter that has pores smaller than bacteria. Thus he could pass a solution containing bacteria through the filter and completely remove them from the solution. In the early 1890s the Russian biologist Dmitri Ivanovsky used this filter to study what became known as the tobacco mosaic virus. At the same time several other
