Nobel Prize Day: Six Interesting Facts about Alfred Nobel

Every year, on December 10 the world commemorates Nobel Prize Day on Alfred Nobel’s death anniversary to honour those who have made notable contributions in various fields, much like the founder of the award himself.

Swedish businessman, chemist, engineer, industrialist, philanthropist, and founder of the prestigious Nobel Prize was born on October 21, 1833, in Stockholm, Sweden. He was also a poet who regarded various literary forms of expression as a method to better understand our thoughts, lives, relationships and surroundings.

Alfred Nobel is best known for his invention of dynamite and an explosive device called a blasting cap which paved the way for modern use of high explosives. He named the newly-discovered product, in 1867, dynamite which translated to “power” in Greek.


Alfred was known for his work in humanitarian and scientific philanthropies and left a bulk of his fortune in trust to establish what is now regarded as one of the most prestigious international awards, the Nobel Prize. It is believed that he wrote his will without any legal counsel.


Alfred not only became a competent chemist by age 16 but was also fluent in multiple languages like English, French, German, Swedish and Russian.


Alfred did not have the best public image. When he lost his younger brother Emil, a French newspaper confused him with Alfred and used the headline “The merchant of death is dead.” It also stated that Nobel “became rich by finding ways to kill more people faster than ever before.”


Before his death, Nobel wrote a play called Nemesis, copies of which were given to limited publications but were later said to be destroyed by his family who thought it would undermine his legacy. He died on October 10, 1896, at his villa in San Remo, Italy.


Every year, on December 10 the world commemorates Nobel Prize Day.

Russian Presidents In Power Since Collapse of Soviet Union (1991 - 2023)

Yeltsin became the President of Russia on July 10, 1991. After remaining at the position for 8 years and 174 days he resigned from office on December 31, 1999.

Vladimir Putin was the acting president of Russia after Yeltsin's early resignation. He held the presidential seat from December 31, 1999 to May 7, 2000.   

Putin won the 2000 and 2004 Russian presidential elections in landslide victories with 53.0% and 71.3% of vote, respectively. He was in office from May 7, 2000, to May 7, 2008, for a total of 8 years and 128 days.


Medvedev won the 2008 Russian Presidential elections for a four-year term. He had the backing of the then-incumbent president Vladimir Putin and five other political parties. He remained in the position from May 7, 2008 till May 7, 2012.


The 2012 presidential polls was the first election post-2008 constitutional amendments where an elected president would serve a 6-year term instead of 4 years. Putin won the 2012 and 2018 elections with 63.6% and 77% of vote, respectively. The next elections are due to be held on March 15, 2024.

5 Napoleon quotes on human psychology and mindset

Napoleon Bonaparte, the Emperor of France, was a military and political genius whose life and thoughts are studied even today. Here are five Napoleonic quotes on human psychology and mindset.

“The best cure for the body is a quiet mind”

“It's the unconquerable soul of man, and not the nature of the weapon he uses, that ensures victory”

“Men are Moved by two levers only: fear and self interest.”

“The battlefield is a scene of constant chaos. The winner will be the one who controls that chaos, both his own and the enemies”

“Ordinarily men exercise their memory much more than their judgment.”

Feline ringworms, which include circular areas of hair loss and scaling of skin, can infect humans leading to scaly, red, and ring-shaped patches on the skin.

Salmonella infections, of which cats may not show any symptoms, can spread to humans, leading to fevers, vomiting, abdominal pain and diarrhoea.

A parasitic infection, Toxoplasmosis can spread to humans resulting in flu-like feeling, swollen glands, long-term blurry vision, or eye pain. Cats become prone to it by feeding on infected rodents.

Q fever can lead to high fevers, severe headaches, abdominal pain, and body aches. If it gets serious, it can cause pneumonia or heart valve infections. The bacteria that causes it is inhaled and spreads when an infected mother cat gives birth.

Reports say there is a tiny chance that you can get flu from the cat. One Ohio study revealed that 62% of 400 tested domestic cats showed signs of past flu.

Cat poo in the soil can lead to the release of Toxocara worm eggs (Toxocara cati). These larvae may penetrate under the skin, leaving you with inflammation, itching, and pain.

Oxford University Press Names ‘Rizz’ as its Word of the Year: These Were the Other Finalists 

Oxford University Press has named “rizz” as its word of the year. The term is internet slang for romantic appeal or charm, popularly used among Gen Z, and is believed to be a shortened form of the word charisma, and can be used as a verb, as in to “rizz up,” or chat someone up. 

Rizz came on top in the shortlist of eight words chosen to reflect the ethos, mood, or preoccupations of 2023. The list was then narrowed down to four and the rest was left up to a public vote. 

Oxford University Press (OUP) which publishes the Oxford English Dictionary has defined the term as style, charm, or attractiveness, and the ability to attract a romantic or sexual partner. 

The word which is used to describe an ‘enthusiastic fan’ of singer-songwriter Taylor Swift was among the top four words finalised.

The term, which was also among the top four, is defined as a romantic or sexual relationship that is not considered to be formal or established. 

The word means an instruction given to an artificial intelligence program which determines or influences the content it generates. 

The term which was among the top 8 is defined as a character trait which indicates that a partner or potential partner is boring or lacks originality; (also) a trait or habit, especially, of a partner or potential partner, viewed as extremely characteristic, but not distinctly good or bad. 

A persistent high-pressure weather system over a particular geographic area, which traps a mass of hot air below it. 

Designating a relationship characterised by the one-sided, unreciprocated sense of intimacy felt by a viewer, fan, or follower for a well-known or prominent figure (typically a media celebrity), in which the follower or fan comes to feel (falsely) that they know the celebrity as a friend.

The practice of discouraging people from buying particular products, or of encouraging people to reduce their consumption of material goods, esp. via social media.

Oxford University Press has named “rizz” as its word of the year.

When we were little, one question constantly used to haunt us: "What do you want to be when you grow up?". Now, we're engaged in jobs some of us love, while others despise the mundane ritual of going to the office. As per a study by ResumeHelp, a resume builder website, these are the most hated jobs in the US.

Almost half the survey respondents (43%) expressed a dislike for politics as a career. Those without a college degree were especially found to be more likely to harbour a hatred for politicians.

About 41% of the 993 American respondents said they hated insurance broker as a profession.

This may come as a surprise, but around 36% voiced a dislike for the priesthood. This, as per ResumeHelp, could be due to the perception that it's not "real" work.


It's the era of influencers, but, as per the survey, more than 36% dislike the so-called influencing and don't consider it a "real" job.

This one is not a surprise. Given that the US for the last few years has been reeling under a gun epidemic, a hatred for selling arms is only to be expected.


Around 35% of people didn't like the prospect of being waiters/waitresses or used car salespeople.


This one isn't a surprise either. No one likes having their time wasted by pesky telemarketers, and being on the other end of the call isn't any fun either.

As per a study by ResumeHelp, a resume builder website, these are the most hated jobs in the US.

Booker Prize Winner 2023: Who is Irish Author Paul Lynch?

Irish writer Paul Lynch won the prestigious Booker Prize in 2023 for his dystopian novel Prophet Song, at a ceremony in London.

The 46-year-old beat UK-based Indian-origin author Chetna Maroo’s debut novel Western Lane, was also shortlisted for the prize. 

Lynch took inspiration from world events including Brexit and the rise of nationalism in Europe to write this novel. He also said that the book was inspired by the Syrian war and refugee crisis. 

Born in Limerick, the author wrote the book set in Dublin, where he currently lives, about a family grappling with a terrifying new world which is descending into fascism and democratic norms are a distant memory. 

The dystopian novel Prophet Song was the fifth book that the Irish author has written and spent four years working on.

Lynch’s novel has no paragraph breaks or quotation marks, which evokes a sense of claustrophobia for the reader but also portrays that the novel’s protagonist Eilish Stack has no pause or respite from the nightmare. 

Lynch said that he plans to spend some of his $63,000 prize money on his mortgage. 

Irish writer Paul Lynch won the prestigious Booker Prize in 2023.

Researchers Outline 14 Ways Humans Could Drive Themselves to Extinction 

A study led by researchers from the University of Stockholm outlines 14 different “evolutionary traps” that could lead to humanity’s end. 

It says there are three main evolutionary traps labelled as ‘global’ (5), ‘technology’ (5) and ‘structural’ (4). These traps are further divided into specific 14 issues, out of which 12 are said to be in an advanced state. 

Simplification (lack of systems to respond to complex issues), growth-for-growth (pursuit of growth at the cost of well-being), ecological overshoot (using more resources than Earth can provide), division (global conflict), and contagion (spread of diseases due to connectivity: COVID-19). 


Infrastructure lock-in (as with fossil fuels), chemical pollution, existential technology (tech with capacity to exterminate species, for example, nuclear weapons), technological autonomy (tech not aligning with human goals, like AI), disinformation and misinformation.


Short-termism (focus on short-term economic growth, risking long-term sustainability), overconsumption, biosphere disconnect (reduced exposure to nature leading to unawareness of environmental deterioration), local social capital loss (less face-to-face interactions, risk loss of ‘capacity for collective action’)


The study says that out of the 14 issues, we are moving in the wrong direction to mitigate 10 ‘evolutionary traps’ and since they tend to reinforce each other, one dead end makes it more likely to get stuck in others as well. 

“We are able to innovate and adapt to many circumstances and can cooperate on surprisingly large scales. But these capabilities turn out to have unintentional consequences. You could say that the human species has been too successful and, in some ways, too smart for its own future good,” said anthropologist and lead author, Peter Søgaard Jørgensen. 

A study led by researchers from the University of Stockholm outlines 14 ways that could lead to humanity’s end.

5 Things To Know About Italy’s ‘Ndrangheta Mafia 


The ‘Ndrangheta originated in the impoverished Calabria region, dating back to at least the unification of Italy in 1861.

Biden turns 81: Here are the Current Oldest and Youngest World Leaders

As the United States President Joe Biden turned 81 on Monday (Nov 20), making him the oldest person to ever occupy the Oval Office, concerns about his age amid his re-election bid are once again making headlines. But he is far from the oldest world leader currently in power. 

According to an analysis by the Pew Research Center, roughly one in every three world leaders is in their 60s, while median age of all world leaders is 62. The United States is one of only two countries that have a leader in their 80s or older. 

Born in 1993, the president of Cameroon is the oldest head of state in the world. As of 2023, he is 90 years old and took office over 40 years ago.

The president of the State of Palestine, according to Pew Research Center report, is the second-oldest elected world leader and is 88 years old.

At the age of 80, Biden was the ninth oldest national leader in the world, according to Pew Research Center published in March. He was also the oldest American president when he took the top job at the age of 78. 

According to the report, the President of Chile Gabriel Boric (37), is the youngest head of government for whom an exact date of birth could be found.

The 37-year-old Prime Minister of Montenegro is also among the youngest world leaders. Dritan Abazovic took office last year and once served as the country’s deputy PM.

Five Ways Climate Crisis Imperils Human Security Globally 

Extreme weather events such as hurricanes, floods, wildfires, and droughts can displace communities, destroy infrastructure, and disrupt access to basic resources. 

Changes in climate patterns can lead to altered precipitation, affecting agriculture and water availability. Crop failures and water scarcity can result in food shortages. 

As global temperatures rise, polar ice caps and glaciers melt, causing sea levels to rise. This poses a direct threat to low-lying coastal areas. 

Climate-induced environmental changes can force communities to migrate in search of better living conditions. This mass movement of people can strain resources in receiving areas. 

The climate crisis exacerbates competition for scarce resources such as water, arable land, and energy. This competition can trigger conflicts between communities or even nations.
