It's December 10th, 🧨 Nobel Prize Day. These prizes honor Alfred Bernhard Nobel, a Swedish engineer, chemist, entrepreneur, and philanthropist. They recognize outstanding achievements in various fields in the arts and sciences. Nobel Prize Day is a tribute to the man who conceived of and instituted the prizes.
As a young man, Nobel invented dynamite as a superior and more stable version of nitroglycerin. He later invented an even better alternative to dynamite – gelignite. This became a staple in mining operations and, along with advanced military weaponry which he also invented, made him rich.
One story has it that toward the end of his life, when a French newspaper carried a premature obituary of Nobel criticizing him for his role in warfare, he re-evaluated his life and decided to use his wealth to set up prizes to recognize the best in humanity. The Nobel Prizes are considered by most to be the world's most prestigious awards.
On this day in 1901, the Nobel Foundation awarded its first Nobel Prizes – in Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature, and Peace. In 1969, the foundation added the Nobel Prize in Economics. At least one prize has been awarded every year since 1901 except for 1940-1942 when World War II intervened. Today, on the anniversary of Nobel’s death in 1896, the 2022 Nobel Prizes will be handed out for achievements in Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature, Economics, and ☮️ Peace… Jamiese of Pixoplanet

A reminder there are fish and don’t pollute. I did an #artproject .with stencil. Just a few one evening. The kids were supposed to do it with me but they painted the fish cutouts into little masterpieces. @jacob_garvelink #dontpollute #giveahoot #giveahootdontpollute #salishsea #vancity #ecoart #vancouverisawesome #graf #graffiti #savetheocean #surfrider #creatorsofvancity #ecoaction #fishstencil #fishery #fishscience #biology #environmentalism https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj14AFBOZ0b/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Going to the trailhead is always an exciting and happy time, going home is good, but it doesn't give the same level of excitement and happiness. On the positive side going home after a long hike in one piece and uninjured is always great. Don't be that person to go to nature and pollute, be the one to go to nature and love it ❤️.

Garbage Bag!
Fish bone out of lemon skin indicates that the fish garbage will not stink but smell like lemon if kept in Koroplast garbage bag.

Happy Halloween everybody. I LOVE to walk around LA and I always try to take a new route when walking somewhere. On this perfect SoCal weather day, I took a different turn and saw a beautiful mural of @chadwickboseman as @blackpanther then another as @jackierobinsonofficial in the film 42. Then I saw the artist @johnparkart working on two more murals to honor the life and career of Chadwick Boseman. John was kind enough to pose for this snap and I have to say, LA ain’t perfect but it is Dope AF. Sending love to everyone within reach today as well as the family of Chadwick Boseman and Jackie Robinson today. Got to walk among legends today in their wonderful artistic incarnations. Thanks also to @johnparkart for using his talents to make @losangeles even more beautiful than it already is! Be your best selves tonight and this week Angelenos! We can always help more by being kind and helping your neighbors. #losangeles #cityofchampions #dontloot #dontpollute #helpnothate #loveovereverything #johnparkart #chadwickboseman #jackierobinson (at West Los Angeles) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHBPDcHjZBW4b9EexaiUi_QpikWde2HD4OiQYA0/?igshid=q2xlh1a3lvyw
