Bayer Leverkusen won today, March 14, 2024, the Bundesliga championship for the first time. Bayer 04 Leverkusen is a prominent German football club based in Leverkusen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. The club was founded in 1904 by employees of the German pharmaceutical company Bayer AG, and this origin deeply influenced its early years. Up until the 1970s, Bayer Leverkusen was primarily composed of employees from Bayer AG, reflecting the club's roots as a company team and giving its nickname "Werkself", German for "Factory's team of eleven". This connection not only defined its identity but also shaped the club's culture and values, emphasizing community and worker participation. Bayer Leverkusen first joined the Bundesliga, Germany’s top-tier football league, in 1979. Since then, it has consistently competed at high levels. Despite its successes, the club is perhaps best known for its series of near misses in various competitions, earning the nickname "Vizekusen", also "Neverkusen" in English. This moniker stems from the 2001-2002 season when Leverkusen finished second in the Bundesliga, the German Cup, and the UEFA Champions League, highlighting a pattern of falling just short of major titles. Today it earned the title with a 5–0 win over Werder Bremen, remining unbeaten after 43 consecutive games including the whole season until now. CONGRATULATIONS BAYER 04 LEVERKUSEN !!

Felix Hoffmann, a chemist at the German pharmaceutical company Bayer, synthesized acetylsalicylic acid in a pure and stable form in 1897. Bayer patented the drug on March 6, 1899 under the name "Aspirin," issued in the US as patent 644,077, on 27 February 1900. It quickly became the world's most widely used medication (and it is today as of 2017). Aspirin was touted for its pain-relieving, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic (fever-reducing) properties. It was indicated for a variety of conditions, including headache, dental pain, menstrual cramps, muscle and joint aches, and fever. Aspirin started as powder, but soon enough was pressed into tablets with the iconic Bayer logo. In the 1970s, studies began to reveal its potential in preventing heart attacks, leading to its use in low doses for cardiovascular protection. In 1982, Sir John Vane won a Nobel Prize for discovering aspirin's action in inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis. Today, Aspirin is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines, highlighting its importance in global health. It's estimated that annually, over 60 billion Aspirin tablets (35,000+ tons) are consumed worldwide, and a trillion since 100 years, underscoring its enduring impact on medicine. Its adoption for cardiovascular disease prevention and its role in pain and fever management make it a cornerstone of modern therapy.

The Dominican Republic celebrates its Independence Day on February 27th, marking the country's independence from Haiti in 1844. This day commemorates the culmination of the Dominican War of Independence, led by Juan Pablo Duarte, Francisco del Rosario Sánchez, and MatÃas Ramón Mella, who are considered the founding fathers of the Dominican Republic. These leaders were part of a secret society called La Trinitaria, which played a crucial role in the independence movement. The conflict was rooted in cultural differences between Haitians and Dominicans, alongside economic disputes. After years of Haitian rule, the Dominican Republic declared its independence in Santo Domingo. It was followed by a series of battles, with the final major conflict, the Battle of Santiago, occurring in 1844, solidifying Dominican sovereignty. Celebrations are centered around the Altar de la Patria at the "Parque Independencia" in Santo Domingo. This monument houses the remains of the founding fathers and serves as a focal point for nationalistic ceremonies. The day is marked by the tradition of wearing the national colors—blue, red, and white—and the extensive use of music and dance to celebrate. Parades, cultural performances, and patriotic displays run also across the nation. Dominican Independence Day celebrates the Dominican Republic's rich culture, traditions, and the enduring spirit of its people. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominican_War_of_Independence Art&Text🫶ChatGPT&Photoshop AI.
