#Noble Prize Winner

[scotianostra]

On September 6th 1876, the Scottish physician and physiologist John James Macleod was born near Dunkeld.

J J Macleod is arguably the most famous unknown Scot you will hear about today.

He was the son of the Rev. Robert Macleod. When later the family moved to Aberdeen, Macleod went to the Grammar School there and later entered the Marischal College of the University of Aberdeen to study medicine.

J J R Macleod directed and informed the research which led to the discovery of insulin. His expertise ensured that the laboratory findings of his team were rapidly translated into the clinical application of insulin to treat type 1 diabetes in 1922 – one of the therapeutic landmarks of 20th century medicine.

Prior to the discovery of insulin, type 1 diabetes was fatal and without it many millions of people, many of them children, would subsequently have died. The discovery of insulin is frequently and inaccurately attributed to “Banting and Best”, and for decades Macleod was effectively airbrushed out of medical history.  The importance of the research of this quiet and unassuming Scottish scientist cannot be over-estimated and he deserves to be as well-known to the public as is Sir Alexander Fleming for his discovery of penicillin.

It was not until 1982 when a Canadian historian, Michael Bliss, published his book, “The Discovery of Insulin” that Macleod’s reputation was restored and he took his rightful place as co-discoverer

It is also interesting to note that the first insulin in the UK was given in the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh in August 1922. Following publication of the early findings regarding insulin in March 1922, doctors in Edinburgh contacted John Macleod who provided them with detailed directions on how to make and administer insulin.

In October 1923 it was announced in Stockholm that Frederick Banting and John Macleod would share the 1923 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for the discovery of insulin.

John James Macleod was  buried at Aberdeen cemetery, and the grave seems to be the only memorial to him in Scotland, Canada at least honours him with a plaque at the house he stayed in Toronto and another at the University.

Someone is going to win a Noble Peace Prize award. I saw this in a dream though the person was not shown to me.

In the dream I was working in a lab when I received the news.

It will come as a sweet surprise and it will involve the sciences for something revolutionary.

Congrats 🥳

List of Nobel Prize Winners from India

We get up, and we work like maniacs- because time is always running out, we can hardly spare any leisure time, and even if we could spare some free time, only a handful of people will dedicate this time to working for the benefit of humankind. Bitter but true, isn't it? This article discusses the contribution of those handfuls of people who have devoted their entire life to mankind. As a symbol of gratitude and honour, they have bestowed a prize that has been created to reward the discoveries which confer a greater benefit to mankind, i.e., the Nobel Prize comprising prizes in Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature, and Peace.

History of the Nobel Prize

Alfred Nobel, known for his invention of dynamite, was a Swedish chemist, engineer and industrialist who died in 1896. Before their death in 1895, he signed his last will to use all of his assets and fortunes to establish five prizes in Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature, Economics and Peace, which were later collectively called the Nobel Prizes. The Prize money for this comes from the bequest left by Alfred Nobel himself.

Shockingly, in 1888, a French newspaper published the obituary of Alfred Nobel, who was alive at that time, with the title, ‘The Merchant Of Death Is Dead’.

He was traumatized by reading his obituary in the newspaper & decided to change his own will so that people remember him for a lengthy time.

Throughout his entire life, Alfred Nobel wrote various wills, but the ultimate one was composed just a year before his death in 1895, as we had discussed, and was signed at the Swedish–Norwegian Club in Paris.

The will was not approved by the Storting in Norway until 1897. Thereafter, a Nobel Foundation was formed by the executors of such will, Ragnar Sohlman and Rudolf Lilljequist, to take care of his assets & to organize the awarding of the Nobel Prizes.

The foundation has been exempted from all the taxes in Sweden since 1946 & from investment taxes in the United States since 1953. Can the Nobel Prize be given posthumously?

The first Nobel Prize was bestowed on 10 December 1901. Although Nobel Prizes are not awarded posthumously (meaning prizes awarded after a person’s death), if a person is awarded a prize and dies before receiving it, then the prize is presented. Only two persons have been given the prize posthumously to date, i.e., before 1974, the Nobel Prize has only been awarded posthumously to Dag Hammarskjöld (Nobel Peace Prize 1961) and Erik Axel Karlfeldt (Nobel Prize in Literature 1931)

How much is a Nobel Prize worth?

In 2021, the Nobel Prize was worth around 10 million Swedish kronor i.e., around 10 crores INR. The award money has increased over the years, and only a handful of laureates have won it with increased worth, but only in the last three decades.

Who won the Nobel Prize in India?

List of Indian citizens who won the Nobel Prize

Each recipient of the Nobel Prize is known as the Laureate, a prize that was first instituted in 190 and among the recipients, 12 are Indians (five Indian citizens and seven of Indian ancestry or residency).

Sir William Ramsay was born on October 2, 1852. A Scottish chemist who discovered the noble gases and received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1904 “in recognition of his services in the discovery of the inert gaseous elements in air” along with his collaborator, John William Strutt, 3rd Baron Rayleigh, who received the Nobel Prize in Physics that same year for their discovery of argon. After the two men identified argon, Ramsay investigated other atmospheric gases. His work in isolating argon, helium, neon, krypton, and xenon led to the development of a new section of the periodic table.

On June 25th 1971 , John Boyd Orr, biologist and Nobel Prize Winner, died.

John Boyd Orr's pioneering research led to millions of children across the UK being given free school milk from 1946 to 1971 when Margaret Thatcher, then education secretary, cut provision giving her the mick name Thatcher, "Thatcher, Thatcher, milk snatcher”

Boyd Orr was born in Ayrshire into a religious and highly literate family, and it was perhaps inevitable that he should be destined for a career in teaching after studying theology. However, his studies at Glasgow University also opened up new avenues for him. He became interested in the theories of Darwin, and this led to a fascination with zoology.

When he graduated with his MA in 1902, he was assigned to a teaching position in the Glasgow slums to fulfil the obligations required by his scholarship. He lasted only a few days before resigning and going back home to Ayrshire where he was reassigned to a school in Saltcoats. There he completed his teaching but left as soon as he could, saying: "though I liked the children, I hated teaching them”.

Boyd Orr returned to university to study biology and medicine, and he graduated with a BSc in 1910 and MB ChB two years later. He only practised for one month before returning to university to undertake nutritional research. His MD thesis in 1914 was awarded the Bellahouston Gold Medal for the most distinguished thesis of the year.

On the recommendation of his supervisor, he was asked to be the first director of a new research institute in Aberdeen, which would later become the world renowned Rowett Institute. At the time of his appointment, it did not exist, but he would spend the next twenty-five years raising both funds and the profile of nutritional research to make it a reality.

The initial work to build the institute was, however, interrupted by the outbreak of war. Boyd Orr enlisted in the RAMC and saw active service on the Western Front where he was awarded both the Military Cross and the Distinguished Service Order. Later he would never wear the medals saying that the truly brave men had all died.

In the interwar years, he travelled widely and published extensively, emerging as one of the country’s leading experts in nutrition. He first came to national attention in 1936 with the publication of Food, Health and Income, a report of a dietary survey by income group, which revealed that the cost of a diet meeting basic nutritional needs was beyond the means of half the British population.

This led to similar studies being conducted in nineteen other countries and prompted the creation of a Commission of the League of Nations, which tried to formulate a global food policy. It became the forerunner of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Boyd Orr would become the Director General of the FAO from 1945-48. These were important years because the predicted European post-war famine was averted in part by policies put forward by the organisation.

Boyd Orr was no stranger to the challenges of developing and implementing food policies, many of which are still with us today. He spent his later career trying to persuade governments and presidents, organisations and companies to rethink the way they did things. However, he would often bemoan the fact that while he could persuade farmers of the importance of the nutrition of their animals, he could not stir their interest “in the food of their ain bairns, far less in the bairns of ither folks”.

His was a life filled with honours and awards, from Gold medals at University to military decorations to honorary degrees and more. He was elected Rector of Glasgow University and subsequently became its Chancellor. He was briefly a British Member of Parliament, and in 1935 he was knighted for his services to agriculture. In 1949, after he was awarded the Nobel Prize, Prime Minister Clement Attlee ennobled him as Baron Boyd Orr of Brechin Mearns.

Reading of Boyd Orr’s long career it seems he had a series of false starts and perhaps even failures. But he was no dilettante. He combined a powerful intellect with an admirable work ethic to achieve a mastery in everything he tried. That he chose to move from a career in teaching to medical practice, to research, to politics and then to governance and policy making was not evidence of mere restlessness but of a constant desire to do meaningful work.

Boyd Orr was at heart a man with an ambitious vision for the world, and he firmly believed that real peace and prosperity would only ever be achieved when no one was hungry.

The citation for the 1949 Nobel Peace Prize read: “for his lifelong effort to conquer hunger and want, thereby helping to remove a major cause of military conflict and war”.

More history!!! I apologize in advanced this will be a touch long. Lucifer wants to catch up on everything he's missed and goes down a rabbit hole, and banks a hard right and just goes off looking at duck stuff that is loosely equated to other historical events. Now, for some history. The totally not over-embellished "Devil Duck" from WWII, Pacific Theater. Where US Marines "won a raffle In New Zealand" and the prize was a duck (and totally totally didn't win a duck in a drunken gambling session). The winner's name was Francis "Pappy" Fagan if you'd like to know who the lucky guy was. So, the duck is now a Marine cause... of course it is... and because this is the marines- they make the duck into a drinking buddy and the duck becomes fond of beer.

The duck becomes the unit's mascot and is given the name "Sgt. Siwash".

So they go off to war and engage in the battle of Tarawa. And in totally believable fashion the duck storms the beach and engages in solo combat with a Japanese Rooster sustaining multiple pecks to the head, repel the enemy rooster. Sgt. Siwash refused medical aid until all other soldiers are tended too first. As ya do... cause ducks are noble AF creatures like that... Yup... totally...

The second notable engagement for this unit is the battle of Saipan (aka The D-Day of the Pacific), but the enemy poultry refused to engage Sgt. Siwash in that battle so the duck could sit that one out.

Well Lucifer takes this to the bar and Lucifer is all excited about a war-hero duck. Before Husker, or, anyone for that matter can correct Lucifer on this. Alastor is there shaking his head no, suppressing laughter the whole time.

For one- it's funnier to just let this play out to whatever conclusion it comes to. And for two- Alastor was the one that told Lucifer about this. Alastor got the story from a Marine that was on the unit venting about the bull-shittery the upper ranks got into to spin this tale to the public one drunken night ages ago in a bar. He tucked the information into his pocket for a rainy day. And baby, it's raining cats and dogs and Lucifer was RIGHT THERE.

Duel

Pairing: Dark Peter Parker x (female) Reader

▶ This is a yandere/dark work and it may contain triggering content so please READ THE WARNINGS before. Do not read if minor.

More at Masterlist

SUMMARY: You’re happily engaged to Viscount Quill until it all changes with Count Parker.

WARNINGS: --

AN: This is set on medieval times. Please, reblog and give me feedback.

--

You sit in the luxurious chair, hands gently folded in your lap as you admire the feast unfolding in front of you.

Tables filled with nobles and their ladies, rejoicing in various delicacies. The hall was completely flooded with music, laughter and joy.

All in honor of your engagement to Viscount Quill, who sits by your side with a practically empty goblet of wine, laughing loudly as he observes the celebrations. 

A smile makes its way towards your lips, you couldn’t be any happier. Viscount Peter Quill is a noble rich man but more than that he is a good man, one that you find yourself quite enamored with. Everyone in your family is happy with this union and so are you. 

While you are creating happy and prosperous future scenarios in your head, a young man comes to stand in front of you, his face contrasting with the happiness of everyone in the room.

One of his hands is holding the head of his sword, attached to his belt and you question yourself why he even bothered to bring it to your engagement party.  

You recognize him as Lord Parker. Peter Parker. You vaguely wonder if he’s here to congratulate you and Quill on the engagement ceremony. You’re wrong. 

He bows to you and you bow your head in return, offering him a polite smile. Peter looks at you a second too long but he soon moves his attention towards Quill, his gaze hardening and his hand grips the sword tighter. 

“Come, Peter! Join us in this marvelous celebration and have a cup of wine.” Quill enthusiastically invites him, not noticing Peter’s irked expression. 

He suddenly pulls out the knife and everyone in the room halts their movements, both surprised and shocked by the turn of events. You feel cold fear settling inside you as Peter approaches Quill with his knife. 

“I challenge you for a sword duel. The winner gets a prize.” Peter spills the words and you, much like many people, gasp in horror.

Why is Count Peter doing this? A sword duel is something usually done in cases of hostility or to win something. As far as you knew, Peter and Quill were good friends. 

“And the prize?” Quill asks, his voice unusually sober for someone who drank the better part of the evening. 

Peter’s brown eyes are immediately drawn back to you, his eyes meeting yours. They’re full of intense passion, in a way that scares you. You feel the urge to get away from him. 

“Lady Y/N.”

[that-one-i-think]

Time for more lore for my fanfic For My Sunlight, this time THE GLADIATOR PITS! This will start with what it inspired it and then go into why it was created and then make a long reblog about Liochant's history. LONG POST SO EXPANDED (feel free to use the idea for yourself and comment!)

So before there were the gladiator pits, there was something a festival called "The Lioness Tournament". It would happen every solstice as a celebration of Menphia. It featured various celebrations with the major feat being the tournament. Fighters from everywhere in Tu'la would come to compete and try to win an attempt at bonding with Menphia's relic. Very few ever did, which is why there is a second prize of a nether gold weapon. (Despite never winning a tournament, Liochant does have a nether gold khopesh he received from a his mother figure who was a tournament winner)

Now, 16 years ago, the King of Northern Tu'la invaded the desert and completely took over the continent. With the tournament taking place in Solspear, the capital of the desert country, the Tiger King of Tu'la had an idea to get the people on his side. He turned the tournament into an all year event, with the tournament hall turned into a large battle pit as "a way for the people to get closer to Menphia".

He originally sent rebels and soldiers who fought against the invasion to the pit. They fought for the entertainment of the rich and Royals of northern Tu'la, including those of the desert who betrayed their people in favor of the riches of the north.

As the years passed, it became an even larger spectacle with the stakes getting larger and larger and the arena even growing. Two years after the establishment of the pit, Tu'la ran out of rebels and soldiers, so they got creative and started using prisoners instead. Presented with he option of the pit or death, many decided to take their chances. You could win your freedom, as long as your weren't entertaining that is.

Fights featured gladiators fighting against other gladiators, monsters, and sometimes even fights that are rigged. 1v2, 1v4, and even some that are 1v20. Be wary if you are found to be a werewolf or a shadow knight in this area, for you may just be thrown into the pit for "crimes" against Tu'la.

The games operated akin to the hunger games, with many of the upper class sponsoring the gladiators and trading them akin to how one would trade pokemon. These gladiators would become rather famous, shown off like show dogs by their current owners, but the life wasn't easy for the gladiators. It truly was only dressed up torture.

While some of the battles ended in death, a good majority ended in defeat or revival. Those who lost would be severely punished, and even the gladiators who won wouldn't be free from punishment and torture. For if the fight wasn't entertaining or getting the money worths, it could be worse than losing.

If a gladiator stops being entertaining, they will either be put to death or put to other purposes. Being put to death is the better option if people think the nobles are cruel to gladiators they are much crueler to the people they own. The rich want what they can't get, and once they get their hands on them, officially, they savor. Gladiator eye candy is candy, after all.

Nutcracker Sweethearts DLC:

Welcome to a Sorcier that you've never seen before!

You play as Maria Campbell, the lucky winner of a prize presented by the inimitable toy and magic tool maker Larna Smith,herself: a nutcracker and a collection of toys!

And that night, when the magical becomes the fantastical, is naturally where the tale begins.

Meet the Capture Targets:

Geordo: Reimagined here as The Nutcracker Prince whose heart is frozen, no doubt because of the Mouse Duchess, who has cursed him into this state. Can you crack open his shell and warm his heart?

Alan: The Toy Soldier Prince in this setting, he's steadfast and brave, and willing to do battle with the mouse army. Can you make his tin heart beat?

Keith: The Porcelain Playboy is how he's described, and his appearance and manners match it! Can you find the soft center of his heart?

Nicol: The Sugarplum Knight, he's the beautiful escort of his darling sister, Sophia, the Sugarplum Fairy. Can you charm your way into his heart?

Raphael: The Jack-in-the-Box, he's been in service to the Mouse Queen against his will for some time. Can you get him to open up and let you into his heart?

And here, we have a surprise, as Mary and Sophia are romanceable in this one, and have their own reimaginings!

Mary: The Tree Angel, betrothed to Prince Alan, she sees over all from her noble perch! Will you make the climb and win her heart?

Sophia: The Sugarplum Fairy, she is shy and prone to referencing stories she'd read in the past, as well as being a talented dancer. Will your offer of a pas de deux be the right step towards dancing your way into her heart?

As a bonus, Alan and Mary's routes are the only two that aren't mutually exclusive.

Finally, allow us to introduce the strangely beloved villainess:

Katarina: The Mouse Queen in a broken engagement with the Nutcracker Prince Geordo, you can wage war against her, or you can approach things in a... diplomatic manner, romancing her to the light!

Enchanted Swan DLC

Welcome to the Sorcier Academy of magic, but not the one you know! You play as Maria Campbell, secretly the Queen of the Swans, recently escaped from the clutches of the Marquis Dieke and his family and cursed to transform into a swan in the moonlight.

The curse, however, has its limits, and can be broken by true love's kiss and a declaration of love! Can Maria win the capture targets before she's discovered?

Introducing new gameplay mechanics:

Swan Shenanigans: Get revenge on your bullies in the middle of the night in your swan form!

Pas De Deux: Dance with your chosen partner to build up affection points!

A Dark Secret: Avoid alone time with the student council president! While you never saw him while you were there, he might figure things out. If you pull it off and romance him, you get a special achievement.

Unmask The Impostor: The Diekes have sent an agent to try to prevent Maria from breaking the spell, which would give her the ability to also name who her captors had been. The girl Sarah has been transformed to look like Maria, the only noticeable difference being mannerisms and eyes. Expose her to avoid complications with the spell!

Join Maria as she tries to overcome her curse and find love!

...Why is Katarina Claes helping her? What does she know, and why is she being so helpful? Play the game, romance the characters, and find out in Fortune Lover's Enchanted Swan DLC!
