U.S. National Park:


T he words “For the Benefit and Enjoyment of the People” stretch across the
northern entrance of our nation’s first national park, Yellowstone.
According to the Department of Interior, the goal of the National Park Service
is, and has always been, to keep our wild places protected and unimpaired for future
generations. To that end, more than 400 areas and 84 million acres spanning all 50
states and several unincorporated territories of the United States, protect America’s
greatest natural treasures. With 61 of those wilderness areas toting National Park
designation, it can be tricky trying to pick which park to visit.
So, to help you determine which parks should be higher on your bucket list, we
ranked each park based on their overall accessibility, facilities and accommoda-
tions, trails and attractions, crowds, and, of course, overall ‘wow’ factor, which we
measured by photo ops and stunning scenery.
Keep in mind, it’s almost impossible to say that one is better than the next —
there’s truly something special about each one of our national parks.

Biscayne National Park


NORTHERN FLORIDA KEYS
It’s hard to believe that a stone's-throw from downtown Miami is the world’s
third-largest coral reef. According to the NPS, Biscayne protects extraordinary
aquamarine waters, emerald islands, and “fish-bejeweled” coral reefs.
While there isn’t much in the way of hiking trails, Biscayne offers an entirely
different type of adventure, including several paddling trails. In fact, unbe-
knownst to most visitors, 95% of the park’s 172,000+ acres are submerged be-
neath the aquamarine sea.
Biscayne offers epic eco-adventures like snorkeling and scuba diving to ship-
wrecks and colorful coral reefs along the Maritime Heritage Trail, sunset pad-
dling trails that travel through Jones Lagoon or across Biscayne Bay, and
wonderfully diverse aquatic wildlife, like sharks, sea turtles, and jellyfish.
You might be wondering why Biscayne is a little further down the list. Well,
despite the reefs being some of the most accessible in the world, getting to Bis-
cayne takes a little more effort than your average national park. From downtown
Miami, it can take over an hour to reach the Dante Fascell Visitor Center. From
there, you’ll need to hop aboard a boat or take a guided tour to get the most out
of your adventure. Also, despite its proximity to major cities, there are no hotels
or amenities inside of the park and the two campgrounds available are only ac-
cessible by boat. The good news is, Biscayne’s unique landscape makes for the
less crowds, so it won’t be hard to find tranquility out at sea.

No beer for you: In a more lighthearted
move, beer was banned in Iceland from 1935
until 1989. The ban wasn’t a Prohibition-style
attempt to curb alcohol consumption, but rather
a dig at Denmark. Beer was seen as culturally
Danish (partly, perhaps, because Denmark is
home to several large beer breweries, including
Carlsberg), and since Iceland was struggling to
gain independence from Denmark, anything
seen as too Danish was not too popular.
And in a macabre legal oversight, thanks to an
unfortunate 1615 incident involving stranded
whalers, until 2015 it was technically legal to
kill any Basques (members of an ethnic group
hailing from northern Spain) encountered on
Iceland. Fortunately, there’s no evidence this rul-
ing was ever taken advantage of during the last
400 years.

What are
Bic pens
named after?
The Local News, August 15, 2020 [email protected] 714.914.9797

Today ballpoint pens seem about as humble as


office supplies can get, but they were a major
improvement over messy, labor-intensive foun-
tain pens. In the 1940s, a Frenchman named
Marcel Bich adapted the ballpoint pen invented
by the Hungarian journalist László Biró to create
his own, more affordable version with a plastic
barrel. Bich launched his pen under the brand
name “Bic,” a shortened version of his own
name. The new name was also closer to how
Marcel’s last name was pronounced in France
— “beek” — and less likely to be awkwardly
mispronounced in America or elsewhere. Today,
Bic pens are a staple around the world.

This 21-year-old is Painting the Most Insane Sci-fi


Vehicles on the Planet
Khyzyl Saleem is designing your futuristic dream car
By Andrew Webster
"I don't know what it is about them," Khyzyl Saleem says of his fascination with cars, "but I
think it's the personal aspect of them: the ability to make it your own and make it something
that reflects you as a person."
One quick glance at
Saleem's website shows just
how deep that fascination is:
the page is covered in insane,
futuristic vehicles that wouldn't
look out of place in some new
blockbuster video game. His
pieces often take modern vehi-
cles and splice them with space
age tech and vivid, colorful
paint jobs. Sometimes he even
skips the modern part and goes
straight to making crazy space-
ships. "I'm not sure if I'm fully
sold on the whole flying cars
thing yet, however," he says.
The pieces are particularly
impressive considering the
Manchester-based artist only
started using Photoshop four
years ago, at 17 years old.
When his dad brought home a
copy of the software, Saleem
dove in, determined to learn
everything he could about it.
Inspired by artists like Danny
LuVisi and Arron Beck, he
started making his own crazy
landscapes and characters. "I
became so determined to learn
how to paint; it was beginning
to feel like a chore, so I took a
step back and decided to work
on something more personal
The Local News, August 15, 2020 [email protected] 714.914.9797

that I wouldn't get bored of,"


he explains.
That's where the cars come
in.
He's currently working on a
personal project called
"Evade," which merges his
love of both cars and technol-
ogy. He describes it as a battle
of "old vs. new" with every-
thing from old-school cars to
robotic vehicles, racing in
some kind of sci-fi take on the
Fast and the Furious. One day,
though, he'd like to see his de-
signs move beyond the computer screen and get a chance to design and manufacture a real car.
"Either that or have a car manufacturer ask me to design a GT3 spec racer for them," he says.
You can find more of Saleem's work on his site.
