This pint glass features the African American chemist, Alice Ball, known for developing an injectable treatment for leprosy. Chaulmoogra oil had been previously used to treat leprosy, but it provided inconsistent results and was very painful for patients. Ball discovered a water-soluble form of the oil that could be dissolved in the bloodstream. This became the most effective treatment for leprosy until the 1940s when sulfonamide drugs were developed. Even though Ball was the first woman and first African American to receive a masters degree from the University of Hawaii, the first female chemistry professor there, and made significant contributions in her field, some guy tried to take credit for Ball’s work after her death. Luckily, however, this man was corrected and we can now say ‘cheers’ to Alice Ball on February 29th – Alice Ball Day.

Great tape
This was an impulse purchase and I don’t ever have high expectations for Washi, but this is high quality stuff.
As a paleo science geek I love all the archeology/paleo items! You can't find these anywhere else.

Love these
I'm a casual nerd and love geology. These pillows are a great nod to my rock obsession without being overly obvious. They just feel like abstract patterns. But they really fit the vibe of my apartment, match the color scheme I am going for, and are nicely well-made. I go for all cotton or plant-based materials if I am able and these being cotton sealed the deal for me. I love them. They're also the perfect size for throw pillows. Not too small, not overly large. I love them (I got two)!
