Dr King Nobel Peace Prize Speech Sparknotes
Dr. King's Nobel Peace Prize Lecture was one of the most powerful reading assignments during my
first year in the United States. As an international student from Saudi Arabia, I never imagined that
one person could change the world. Dr. King believed in "non–violence" in order to obtain social
justice, racial integration, and civil rights. In essence, Dr. King's speech represented the progressive
nature of the United States and it motivated me to become a future leader in my home county, Saudi
Arabia.
Dr. Martin Luther King's Nobel Peace Prize speech is an academic piece of writing which
documents his beliefs on nonviolence over his career. It was my first experience with political
writing since this form of freedom of expression is illegal ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net

King believed that violence is both impractical and immoral. King was an ordained Baptist minister,
who embraced the tenets of Christianity and wholeheartedly preached brotherhood, peace, and love
for all men–including white and blacks, alike. King believed "Violence as a way of achieving racial
justice is both impractical and immoral. I am not unmindful of the fact that violence often brings
about momentary results" (King, 1964, pg. 8). Subsequently, King did not believe in violence and
preached non–violence. King felt that nonviolence was the only means to fight oppression, racism,
and injustice. King preached tenets of universal love; moreover, King fought against despair, racial
separatism, and hate. King's message is extremely inspiring and speaks to be broad audience,
including residents of the Middle East. The equality of races can only be achieved through peaceful
arguments and demonstrations. For myself, nonviolence is the only legitimate weapon against
fighting social injustice. King's message could be interpreted and applied to any situation or
community. For myself, hate and revenge can be only be dominated through the application of
nonviolence. King also spoke about bringing about the end to war and poverty through collective

Zanjeer: The Nobel Morality Prize
I am writing on behalf of Zanjeer to nominate them for the Nobel Morality Award. I believe that
Zanjeer should be awarded this because I think that even through his many tough experiences he
was still able to show morality through his acts. I am wanting for you to consider Zanjeer as a
possible nobel prize winner. I think that he deserves this prize because even though he had been
through hard times he still came out on top. Through these moments Zanjeer had to gain many
different character traits in order to do his best. Many of these traits had formed him into the dog
that he was, and even through all of the rough patches, he was able to help others who needed all of
the help they could get. One of the main character traits that he gained was courage. He was able to
go into the bombing area and was able to detect more than 3,329 kgs of the explosive RDX, also
known as Research Department Formula. He was also able to find 600 detonators, almost 249 hand
grenades and 6406 rounds of live ammunition. In this bombing 257 people ended up dying and
leaving 713 people injured. He found most explosives, but he wasn't able to get them all. Although
he could not find them all, he was able to help a lot by moving all of the explosives out that he

legacy. He was a very hardworking dog, and even though Zanjeer is not with us, his mark was left

William Faulkner's Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech and its Relevance
William Faulkner's Nobel Prize acceptance speech is a dynamic statement that challenges the writer
and man to not simply sit around and watch the end of man, but to help man endure and prevail.
Faulkner refuses to accept the naturalists theme that human beings are dominated, controlled, and
overwhelmed by their environment and nature. He does not accept the end of man, but rather says
that man will prevail. Though many have accepted the easy way out by saying man will simply
endure because one can hear his soft, inexhaustible voice even after death, Faulkner also refuses
this. He says man will not only endure, but he shall prevail or triumph over death. Man will ... Show

Eliot. Eliot wrote about man's effort to transcend the force of time and man's effort to achieve the
timelessness of the eternal. His writings reflect his own personal themes and direction of his life: the
quest for eternal salvation. He believes one can "endure and prevail' as Faulkner does as evident in
"The Wasteland". "The Wasteland" emphasizes the decay of the western civilization, yet there was
hope and courage in the writings. Eliot joins William Faulkner in the argument that man controls his
own destiny.
Along with many other authors, Stephen Crane would disagree with Eliot and Faulkner on their
views because he was a naturalistic author. Crane saw human beings as wholly controlled by their
environment and their heredity. "The Open Boat" expresses Crane's naturalistic qualities showing
men having no control over their destiny as they are stuck in the ocean and are controlled by the sea.
Although Crane is seen as a naturalist writer, he is also seen as a Christian symbolist expressing
ultimate understanding of faith and the redemption of people.
Robert Frost, like Stephen Crane, also was a naturalist writer and would disagree with Faulkner. He
believed man had no free will and man would become the sum of your choices. Frost writes in
ordinary speech as Faulkner did in his Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech.
Like Frost and Crane, Eugene O'Neill also expressed a naturalistic point of view on his writings.

Dear Nobel Committee for Literature, The Nobel Prize for Literature was not rewarded to the
deserving writer. You have awarded Bob Dylan the Nobel Prize for Literature on October 13, 2016
degrading dedicated writers around the world. After dropping out of college in the 1960's to pursue
an occupation in which he was already well known as the times "most loved folk poet", he turned to
singing and writing rock–type songs with anti war messages. Whether he did "create new poetic
expressions within the great American tradition" he has not proven himself worthy of such a
significant award. Such a legendary award offered to many other brilliant writers, should be
received by someone who can and will continue to change the world. This award could help out
developing writers, developing countries, and should not be handed out single handedly. Newly
prospering authors and writers deserve as much a chance as anyone. As you may recall, a few of the
runner ups for the Nobel laureate were Adonis, Ngugi Wa Thiong'o, and Ko Un. All of these authors
shared unique talents in writing. In point of fact, Adonis, a Syrian essayist, translator, and poet,

Russians did not want us to have an education, although I was quite intelligent. I eventually was so
determined to obtain an education that I moved to Paris. It was incredibly expensive there to the

Criteria For A Nobel Prize
Criteria for a Nobel Prize in Leadership Alan Weber (2009) wrote an article for the Washington Post,
that focused on the criteria that one might use to suggest a nominee. In his article, Weber offered
that candidacy for the prize should not be base upon "achievement broadly defined, or abstract
qualities that can be attributed to leaders, but clear and undeniable moral authority" (Weber, 2009,
para.1). Cook (2009) added that he would choose a nominee "who has pretty much transcended his
or her own ego, and who sees humanity as interconnected in a vast system to which we all,
ultimately, are contributing"(Cook, 2009, para.4). While these points provide a good starting point
for selection the development of selection criteria, I have demined that any individual who would be
a candidate for a Nobel Prize in Pauline Leadership should be characterized by the following the
following:
Demonstrated Christ Centered Core Values
Unwavering Sense of Mission and Purpose
Alignment of Character, Ethics, and Actions (Bradberry & Greaves, 2012)
Servant Orientation
Leads by Example
Humility
Self Discipline (Lee, 2003)

Author of A Rose for Emily, William Faulkner's Nobel Prize...
All I have to say about A Rose for Emily is that she was a crazy person! Faulkner is a really worthy
and famous writer that has a lot to say in his writings and I think that he accomplishes that when he
writes. "On December 10, he delivered his acceptance speech to the academy in a voice so low and
rapid that few could make out what he was saying, but when his words were published in the
newspaper the following day, it was recognized for its brilliance; in later years, Faulkner's speech
would be lauded as the best speech ever given at a Nobel ceremony." (Padgett) When William

There were a lot of different emotions that were represented in this selection, but Faulkner didn't tell
us that the characters were angry he used details to show us people's emotions. "Try to be better than
yourself. An artist is a creature driven by demons. He doesn't know why they choose him and he's
usually too busy to wonder why. He is completely amoral in that he will rob, borrow, beg, or steal
from anybody and everybody to get the work done." (Faulkner/Stein) When he talks he uses a lot of
emotion and that shows his style of writing. William Faulkner gave a Nobel Prize Acceptance
Speech and in it he wrote about A Rose for Emily he gives himself challenges when he writes and
one of the challenges is pity and sacrifice which has been the glory of the past. When he writes he is
saying that the people who have had pity thrown upon them and the people who have made their
sacrifices are the only ones who get the glory. "The human drama in Faulkner's novels is then built
on the model of the actual, historical drama extending over almost a century and a half." (Faulkner)

She does this to ensure the listeners that taking care of the environment does much more than make
the world we live in look better. Taking care of the environment also takes part in ensuring a
successful democracy and many other important things in society. The idea that Maathai is
attempting to get across to everyone is that the Earth is our friend and we should give back what we
take. She helps us understand this by explaining the awful chain reactions that occur when we don't
replenish what we have consumed from Earth.
Third, she makes her call to action. She asks everyone to take part in something to help the
environment. She addresses each group of people separately. Men and women of all races, children,
young adults, everyone, can take part in something to help. "In the course of history, there comes a
time when humanity is called to shift to a new level of consciousness, to reach a higher moral
ground. A time when we have to shed our fear and give hope to each other. That time is now. (4)"
Her sentence structure of "That time is now," really gives emphasis on what she wants. It is short
and to the point. It's also a very simple sentence. She didn't replace simple words with fancier
words. This shows that what she is asking from people isn't rocket science. She is asking for
something as simple as planting trees or recycling. Her call to action is for everyone to contribute to
helping take care of the environment in some way.

Ele Wiesel Nobel Peace Prize Acceptance Speech
January 30, 1933 forever marks the beginning of the Holocaust, one of the most horrifying and cruel
events in the history of the world. It was the mass genocide of millions of innocent jews, gays,
Jehovah Witnesses, gypsies, and countless others. After the Holocaust, it is clear to society that we,
as people, cannot stand by and watch as other human beings suffer from cruel acts in which they
have no ability to defend themselves. In modern day, it seems as though ethnic cleansing is
becoming less common, however, there are still many instances of it occurring around the world. In
fact, the country of Myanmar is currently attempting to deprive its Rohingya citizens of their basic
rights and exterminate them from the population.
There were many things to be learned from the Holocaust, one of the most important including
apathy toward discrimination and ethnic cleansing. In Elie Wiesel's Nobel Peace Prize Acceptance
Speech about his experienced imprisonment in concentration camps, he explained that people "must
always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the
tormentor, never the tormented". According to Wiesel, someone who stands by and does nothing
while another person suffers is just as guilty as the offender. Additionally, he states in his speech The
Perils of Indifference that, "Indifference reduces the other to an abstraction". A lack of compassion

Mother Teresa point out the importance of giving and kindness using imagery during her speech.
During the speech she talked about a man who was immobilize and smoking was his only
companion. She claims, "the other day I received 15 dollars from a man who was on his back for
twenty years, the only part that he can move is his right hand". Here we can see that even though the
15 dollars would've help the man with his cigarettes and he would've been happy for as long as it
last but instead he gave it to Mother Teresa because he knows that he wanted to help other people

Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech Analysis
There is no denying conflict. Everyone faces conflict of some sort in their lives, whether it be an
argument over which sibling gets to sit in the front seat of the car on the way to school, or a
potentially dangerous confrontation that necessitates an immediate reaction. Writers such as Susan
Campbell Bartoletti and Elie Wiesel, who wrote "Hitler Youth: Growing Up in Hitler's Shadow" and
"Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech" respectively, portray such situations. Bartoletti writes about how
one German girl faced conflict during World War Two, and Wiesel shares his personal experience as
a Jew in a concentration camp. Both works show that the most important aspect of facing a conflict
is the way in which a person chooses to deal with it. One could react to conflict by becoming angry
or sullen, shouting or going silent, or simply pouting. None of these reactions are the best –– some
can even be counterproductive to one's goals. The best way to deal with conflict is to take a stand for
one's beliefs. First off, standing up for one's beliefs creates many positive effects, for large groups of

Each year, The Nobel Assembly in Karolinska Institutet distributes various Noble Prizes to

In these mutant yeast cells, the typical vesicle transport system was abnormal, which allowed
detection of specific genes that were related to these mutations. These screenings eventually led to
the identification of twenty–three separate genes that could be classified into three groups based on
their effects on membranes involved in traffic. These membranes include the endoplasmic reticulum,
the Golgi Apparatus, and the plasma membrane (Novick and Schekman, 1979).
James Rothman dissected the transport mechanism by purifying and identifying proteins used in
transport. The NSF, SNAP and SNARE proteins act as docking sites to enable vesicles to fuse to
specific target membranes. This explains the precision of transport; the proteins only combined with
certain cargo. The ability to purify the NSF protein was made possible by the identification of the
VSV–G protein. The VSV–G protein is labeled by a sugar when it comes in contact with the Golgi
Apparatus, simplifying documentation. Genes code for proteins used in fusion, exemplified by how
the sec18 gene relates to NSF. Sec17 relates to the SNAP protein in a similar manner. The discovery
of the SNAP protein allowed for the revelation of SNARE proteins found in brain tissue. SNARE
proteins are a gateway to the fusion and docking of vesicles in a very specific manner: only an

Alfred Nobel And The Nobel Peace Prize
When the word "peace" comes to mind, one usually thinks about tranquility or absent from violence
but when learning about Alfred Nobel, one learns that the products he invented were far from
"peaceful" in some eyes. The Nobel Peace Prize was created because Nobel left in his will that his
fortune was to be given as awards in the areas of: peace, chemistry, physiology, and literature.
Alfred Nobel himself started with nothing and ended with a large fortune, and as for The Nobel
Peace Prize, it has evolved over the last century into new ways no one saw occurring in the future.
Alfred Nobel was born into bankruptcy in 1833 to Immanual Nobel and Andriette Ahlsell.
According to Nils Ringertz, Alfred's father was eventually able to provide a "first–class" education
to his sons that taught them language, sciences, and literature. At the end of his academics, Nobel
was particularly fascinated with English literature and poetry. His father was not pleased by his
interests so he sent him overseas to study chemical engineering. In Paris, France, Nobel met and
worked with Ascanio Sobrero, the chemist who had discovered nitroglycerin [a highly explosive
substance]. Ringertz states that "Alfred Nobel became very interested in nitroglycerin and how it
could be put to practical use in construction work," with this new interest, Nobel took the chance
with the substance and worked with it for years. In his experiments with nitroglycerin, many

The Achievements Of The Nobel Peace Prize
Winning the Nobel Peace Prize is an amazing feat and accomplishments that very few people
receive. Only two US presidents, Theodore Roosevelt, and Barack Obama have received the award.
Roosevelt was the first ever American to win this award. His life story and eventful experiences help
shape him as the person we recognize as an impactful person in history.
Theodore Roosevelt was born on October 27th of 1858 into a Dutch family living in New York. As a
child, he struggled with his asthma. Many of his family members called him "Teddy", a name he
wasn't found of. However, that name latched on until people used his nickname to make a toy many
of us are familiar with, a Teddy Bear. His father, Theodore Roosevelt Sr., knew he was very
intelligent but thought he did not have the body to match. He told him to "make his body" by
exercising, so young Theodore did and became stronger. This led him to gain an interest in wrestling
and weightlifting. When Theodore became a teenager he also became interested in gymnastics and
continued to enjoy sports into his college years and beyond. Roosevelt went to Harvard College and
spent 4 years there. At Harvard, he studied natural science as his major at first, however when his
father died he switched his major to law. He excelled in sports and education and found a good
balance between the two. Roosevelt had an interesting and influential family that helped him be the

Although he started working on IVF in the 1950s it took him about 30 years to make it successful,
and about 60 years until he won the Nobel Prize. Edwards is a professor at the University of
Cambridge England, he also founded Bourn Hall, the first IVF center. Today, vitro fertilization is
responsible for over 4 million births worldwide. Edwards discovered that an embryo can be
fertilized in a Petri dish in a laboratory ((4)

by prescribing a fertility medication to control the timing of the eggs release. They monitor the
ovaries using ultrasound to make sure the multiple eggs can be collected and that they are
developing the eggs properly and that his is called ovulation induction. To retrieve the eggs a minor
operation is required, sedation and anesthesia is used to prevent discomfort. A hollow needle is
inserted through the pelvic cavity into the ovary to collect the eggs. Now the sperm is needed for
completion of the procedure, this is collected by ejaculation. The process of insemination now
begins; a single sperm is injected into the egg for fertilization. The egg is monitored to make sure
cell division is achieved. It is now considered an embryo after it is fertilized. Three days after the

The 1981 Nobel Prize Of Physiology And Medicine
The 1981 Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine
In the year of 1981 three gentlemen were awarded The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine
where the prize was divided and then shared amongst the three men. At the time of awarding, the
three gentlemen specialized in the field of neurophysiology while two also specialized in the field of
ocular physiology. One–half of the prize was awarded to Roger W. Sperry for his discoveries
involving the cerebral hemispheres whereas the other half was awarded and split between David H.
Hubel and Torsten N. Wiesel for their findings on the visual system. Therefore, together their
research altered how people originally thought the brain processed information by verifying how the
brain functions and why information is perceived in such a manner. The research conducted by
Roger W. Sperry began in the 1960's and dealt solely with the cerebrum. Before this time, society
only understood the left hemisphere of the brain to be dominant over the right hemisphere. In this
understanding, the cerebrum was composed of two halves, which were referred to as the
hemispheres. The cerebrum consisted of the two hemispheres and millions of nerve fibers that
allowed each hemisphere to distinguish what occurred in the other hemisphere. In the same sense, it
was understood that although both the left and right hemisphere were the same in structure, their
functions differed.

Rhetorical Analysis Of Malala Yousafzai Nobel Peace Prize...
Malala Yousafzai Nobel Peace Prize Speech Analysis "I am those 66 million girls who are deprived
of education. And today I am not raising my voice, it is the voice of those 66 million girls." Malala
Yousafzai makes this statement in her speech to the Nobel Committee as the first Pakistani and, at
the age of sixteen, the youngest person to receive the Nobel Peace Prize Award. Malala was
unfortunately shot in the head by a member of the Taliban, due to the fact that she defied a culture
that did not allow girls to have an education. Despite her brush with death, she not only recovered,
but became a champion for the rights of children and girls around the world to receive an education.

Her use of pathos allows her to connect with the audience on an emotional level and helps drive
home her argument.
Additionally, her use of ethos allows her to present herself to t audience as a reliable figure by
saying, "some people call me the girl who was shot by the Taliban... some people call me a nobel
Laureate now." She convinces the audience of her credibility by reminding them of her personal
experience and that she stands as a credible source. Malala says that the award is not only for her,
but " the Nobel Peace Prize money [will be dedicated] to the Malala Fund", the official organization
led by Malala Yousafzai. She builds on personal examples from her life to support the issue, which
shows that she has first–hand experience with the problem and that she is dedicated to finding a
solution.
Together with strong appeals to pathos and ethos, she establishes the significance of this subject,
persuading the audience to listen to her call to action. She says "Dear sisters and brothers, dear
fellow children, we must work...not wait. Not just the politicians and the world leaders, we all need
to contribute. Me. You. We. It is our duty" (Malala). She reinforces her ideas and provides the
strength and seriousness that the topic deserves, while motivating the audience to unite and face this

The Importance Of Faulkner's Nobel Peace Prize Acceptance...
What defines a writer and their ability to deliver a message? Is it their level of eloquence? Or is it

Being a writer does require all of the above, but it necessitates something more. It requires the

Over 50 years later, University of Chicago economist, Steven D. Levitt, and New York Times

Freakonomics. The book follows an economist, Levitt, as he explores the "hidden side of
everything" and explains it all in a different, unconventional perspective. It takes on the topic of
morality and economics as he, along with Dubner, ask and answer many questions such as, which is
more dangerous, a gun or a swimming pool? What do schoolteachers and sumo wrestlers have in
common? Or why do drug dealers still live with their moms? As the reader can see, these questions

Why Carter Center Won The Nobel Peace Prize
Nobel Peace Prize What would you do if your entire nation is being ravaged by a disease that you
don't know how to treat? That's where The Carter Center stepped in to aid struggling families in
Africa. Led by former president Jimmy Carter and his wife, they were able to bring cures to villages
that have none. Some people may say that the Carters just want to gain media attention but I will
prove that is not the case. The purpose of this essay is to show why I believe the Carter Center
should be awarded the "Nobel Peace Prize."
The first reason why The Carter Center should win the Nobel Peace prize is they assist people in
thousands of villages with diseases that don't have a cure in their country. The biggest epidemic that
the Carter Center was involved in was the Guinea worm disease. In just one years' time the Center
reduced the disease by a whopping 99 percent! That number decreased from 3.5 million to less then
11,000. Since the Center has many people to help throughout the world, they teach the people who
are at the center of the disease to cure it themselves. To do this, the Carter Center train volunteers
within the thousands of villages who are the main reason the diseases are cured. However, this not
the only reason the Carter Center should win the "Nobel Peace Prize." ... Show more content on

impactful uses of figurative language that I came across was a metaphor. In order to convey
determination to learn, she referenced her "thirst for education." I thought that this was very
impactful because it compares education to one of the basic necessities of life, water. Another great
use of figurative language within her speech was the use of symbolism. Throughout her speech,

Three times she says "so it becomes the last time" when referring to education deprivation. She does

will lose their rights to education if we don't decide to help them will be ingrained in our minds as
well. While talking about the same subject, Malala states that "it is not the time to pity them" twice
to emphasize the point that nothing will happen if we don't take actions to help the children.

Rosalind Franklin and the Nobel Prize
In considering whether or not Rosalind Franklin should have been acknowledged, along with
Watson, Crick, and Wilkins, for the discovery of the double helix and awarded a Nobel Prize, one
must look what qualifies someone to win a Nobel Prize. In order for someone to be awarded the
Nobel Prize they must first meet the qualifications. The qualifications are endless, but somewhat
simple. In this case the Nobel Prize is for science. This prize is chosen by a group of people, and
they seek to choose people whom create different views of topics in the field they are studying. The
main candidate is consistently searching to find new ideas of the concerning topic, that could
enhance the knowledge that people already have on a problem or solution in the world. The Nobel
Committee sends persons who are believed to hold the qualifications of a Nobel Prize a form of
proposal. The candidates are not chosen at random, but are recommended by others who have
excelled in their field of work. The other nominations are not made public, but concealed for a
period of 50 years (NobelPrize.org).
Franklin should be awarded the prize because her work is both philosophical and instrumental.
Although it is hard to determine to what lengths Franklin contributed philosophically to Watson's

Petersburg where he excelled in his studies, especially chemistry (Fant).
As Alfred Nobel grew into a young man he became well traveled, and consequently learned five
different languages fluently (Fant). In his spare time he wrote novels, poetry, and plays (Fant). As
Nobel got older, he started to help in his father's workshop. While working at the workshop Nobel
learned about and became fascinated by nitroglycerin (Frost). Nobel and his father became very
competitive in trying to find out who was better at creating a "massive explosion" (Frost). Young
Nobel finally won the competition with his father by using nitroglycerin to create a larger explosive
device (Frost). Afterwards, Alfred Nobel discovered how to utilize the power contained within the
nitroglycerin compound; however it was still a very volatile substance (Dynamite).
Nobel knew there was a huge potential for such an explosive but he needed to figure out a way to
make it safer. Nobel "worked 16 hours a day" to find out how to harness the power of this unstable
destructive substance (Dynamite). In 1864 a large amount of nitroglycerin exploded accidentally at
the factory where Nobel worked with the dangerous substance (Frost). Nobel's younger brother,

His call to actions is for us to "choose between two futures." He goes on to explain further by
challenging the reader to challenge assumption as well as repetition. Challenging us to question the
repetition that would eminently happen if we don't unify and majorly change our actions. His
persuasion is made very strong and hard–hitting when he says "we are standing at the most fateful
fork in that path. So I want to end as I began, with a vision of two futures – each a palpable
possibility – and with a prayer that we will see with vivid clarity the necessity of choosing between
those two futures, and the urgency of making the right choice now." Reading this quote gives the
feeling of being very inspired and feeling empowered. That being said, I feel Gore should have
given more concrete action that he proposes we take. He should have said things such as we should
stop allowing every person to drive a motor vehicle as much as they please. If he'd said something
along those lines, it puts a specific concern in mind and helps along the putting the reality of better,
healthier world into fruition. He also could have proposed that perhaps every person who owns a
vehicle be required to plant a tree once a year. His speech was powerful with lots of drawing of
parallels, a lot of analogies, and many accounts of making associations. While he is lacking a
concrete and specific remedy for our current situation, maybe it is okay. Perhaps all we need is to

There are two processes that are involved in the bulk transport of large molecules. After these large
particles are packaged in vesicles, if the molecules are to be secreted from the cell, the transport
vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane in a process called exocytosis. James Rothman discovered
that "this process is done very precisely as specific protein complexes on the transport vesicles and
specific proteins on the plasma membrane bind together to cause this fusion" (1).
When the cell takes in particles from the outside, the cell sinks inward to form a vesicle of materials
from the outside in the same principle that James Rothman identified.
The plasma membrane plays a key role in cell signaling pathways. Local signaling is when local

Alfred Nobel wants "outstanding" literature from the Literature Prize winner which is stated in his

the awards he had won. Biography states some of the few awards, "The legendary singer–songwriter
has received Grammy, Academy and Golden Globe awards, as well as the Presidential Medal of
Freedom and the Nobel Prize for Literature." These prizes exhibit that Bob Dylan's work must be
very impressive to have won so many awards and it further supports the reason to give him another.
This also brings up the argument that Bob Dylan has too much spotlight and "real" literature writers
deserve. In the article "Why Bob Dylan Shouldn't Have Gotten The Nobel Prize" nytimes.com
states, "The legendary singer–songwriter has received Grammy, Academy and Golden Globe

to the prize and make it feel relevant to a younger generation. But there are many ways they could
have accomplished this while still honoring a writer." This article is expressing that awarding a
writer would be more appropriate for the Nobel Prize and that Dylan has already won plenty of
awards. However, this would be saying that someone who is passionate and elaborate in their work

signs that our world is spinning out of kilter" (Nobel Speech p. 15) This is true because with more
and more pollution in the tiny shell of the atmosphere, it is getting harder to ignore that the Earth as
many know it is getting changed in a bad way. This links to the claim because the world spinning
out of kilter is an effect of climate change and global warming.
The claim is true because the human species are ignoring the problems at hand. "We, the human
species, are confronting a planetary emergency–a threat ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
"No witchcraft, no enemy action had silenced the rebirth of new life in this stricken world. The
people had done it themselves." (Silent Spring p. 8) This is true because the only reason why people
would say that the pollution is worse, is because you can see how big it is, but climate change is
something you cannot see that still is a humongous challenge. This is false for many more reasons,
but since you can see it people would think it is a bigger problem, when really the climate change is.
Many would say that climate change is the biggest problem which is true, because people have been
ignoring the problem showing how it gets worse over time.In my point of view, if people car pulled,
and rode bikes, and drove in cars less the world would not have nearly as big of problems at

Wilhelm Rontgen and the Nobel Prize Essay
Wilhelm Conrad Rontgen was born on March 27, 1845 in Lennep, Prussia; which is now
Remscheid, Germany. His family moved to Apeldoorn in the Netherlands, where we went to
Institute of Martinus Herman van Doorn, a boarding school. He did not show any special aptitude,
but he had a fascination with nature and loved roaming the countryside and walking through forests.
Later he attended a technical school in Utrecht, but unfortunately was unfairly expelled for allegedly
drawing a rude caricature of one of the teachers, which was in fact drawn by another student. He
then entered the University of Utrecht in 1865 to study physics. He did not have the required
credentials to enter the University, but he heard he could enter by passing an exam. He ... Show

He named this new discovery "X–Ray" because x is the term for an unknown number in
mathematics. It was later called "Roentgen Rays" although changed back to "X–Ray". With his new
discovery, he found that the rays would travel through human tissue, but leave a shadow of bone and
metal behind. One of his first experiments was on his wife Bertha's hand with a ring on her finger in
1895. Medical X–rays work by letting fast moving electrons come to a sudden stop on a metal plate.
They show up different on the radiograph because of different absorption rates of different material.
The calcium in bones absorb the most x–rays so they appear white on a radiograph, or the film x–
rays are displayed on, although other things like tissue, fat and skin absorb it less so they appear
grey. Air absorbs the least x–rays so this is why lungs look completely black on a radiograph.
Todays x–ray machines are much faster, more efficient and produce much less harmful radiation.
Excessive exposure to x–rays can be dangerous but in modern medicine doctors are able to keep us
safe with their knowledge on this. The original x–ray machine took 90 minutes and produced 1500
times the radiation as modern x–rays. Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen has made a huge impact on todays
technology. It's obvious to see that inventing the x–ray is a big deal, but this was actually a very big
accomplishment and made a lot of new things possible. Without the x–ray our ability in the medical

Dr King's Nobel Prize Speech Inspires Student

  • 1. Dr King Nobel Peace Prize Speech Sparknotes Dr. King's Nobel Peace Prize Lecture was one of the most powerful reading assignments during my first year in the United States. As an international student from Saudi Arabia, I never imagined that one person could change the world. Dr. King believed in "non–violence" in order to obtain social justice, racial integration, and civil rights. In essence, Dr. King's speech represented the progressive nature of the United States and it motivated me to become a future leader in my home county, Saudi Arabia. Dr. Martin Luther King's Nobel Peace Prize speech is an academic piece of writing which documents his beliefs on nonviolence over his career. It was my first experience with political writing since this form of freedom of expression is illegal ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... King believed that violence is both impractical and immoral. King was an ordained Baptist minister, who embraced the tenets of Christianity and wholeheartedly preached brotherhood, peace, and love for all men–including white and blacks, alike. King believed "Violence as a way of achieving racial justice is both impractical and immoral. I am not unmindful of the fact that violence often brings about momentary results" (King, 1964, pg. 8). Subsequently, King did not believe in violence and preached non–violence. King felt that nonviolence was the only means to fight oppression, racism, and injustice. King preached tenets of universal love; moreover, King fought against despair, racial separatism, and hate. King's message is extremely inspiring and speaks to be broad audience, including residents of the Middle East. The equality of races can only be achieved through peaceful arguments and demonstrations. For myself, nonviolence is the only legitimate weapon against fighting social injustice. King's message could be interpreted and applied to any situation or community. For myself, hate and revenge can be only be dominated through the application of nonviolence.

I am wanting for you to consider Zanjeer as a possible nobel prize winner. I think that he deserves this prize because even though he had been through hard times he still came out on top. Through these moments Zanjeer had to gain many different character traits in order to do his best. Many of these traits had formed him into the dog that he was, and even through all of the rough patches, he was able to help others who needed all of the help they could get. One of the main character traits that he gained was courage. He was able to go into the bombing area and was able to detect more than 3,329 kgs of the explosive RDX, also known as Research Department Formula. He was also able to find 600 detonators, almost 249 hand grenades and 6406 rounds of live ammunition. In this bombing 257 people ended up dying and leaving 713 people injured.

William Faulkner's Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech and its Relevance William Faulkner's Nobel Prize acceptance speech is a dynamic statement that challenges the writer and man to not simply sit around and watch the end of man, but to help man endure and prevail. Faulkner refuses to accept the naturalists theme that human beings are dominated, controlled, and overwhelmed by their environment and nature. He does not accept the end of man, but rather says that man will prevail. Though many have accepted the easy way out by saying man will simply endure because one can hear his soft, inexhaustible voice even after death, Faulkner also refuses this. He says man will not only endure, but he shall prevail or triumph over death. Man will ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Eliot. Eliot wrote about man's effort to transcend the force of time and man's effort to achieve the timelessness of the eternal. His writings reflect his own personal themes and direction of his life: the quest for eternal salvation. He believes one can "endure and prevail' as Faulkner does as evident in "The Wasteland". "The Wasteland" emphasizes the decay of the western civilization, yet there was hope and courage in the writings. Eliot joins William Faulkner in the argument that man controls his own destiny. Along with many other authors, Stephen Crane would disagree with Eliot and Faulkner on their views because he was a naturalistic author. Crane saw human beings as wholly controlled by their environment and their heredity. "The Open Boat" expresses Crane's naturalistic qualities showing men having no control over their destiny as they are stuck in the ocean and are controlled by the sea. Although Crane is seen as a naturalist writer, he is also seen as a Christian symbolist expressing ultimate understanding of faith and the redemption of people. Robert Frost, like Stephen Crane, also was a naturalist writer and would disagree with Faulkner. He believed man had no free will and man would become the sum of your choices. Frost writes in ordinary speech as Faulkner did in his Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech. Like Frost and Crane, Eugene O'Neill also expressed a naturalistic point of view on his writings.

You have awarded Bob Dylan the Nobel Prize for Literature on October 13, 2016 degrading dedicated writers around the world. After dropping out of college in the 1960's to pursue an occupation in which he was already well known as the times "most loved folk poet", he turned to singing and writing rock–type songs with anti war messages. Whether he did "create new poetic expressions within the great American tradition" he has not proven himself worthy of such a significant award. Such a legendary award offered to many other brilliant writers, should be received by someone who can and will continue to change the world. This award could help out developing writers, developing countries, and should not be handed out single handedly. Newly prospering authors and writers deserve as much a chance as anyone. As you may recall, a few of the runner ups for the Nobel laureate were Adonis, Ngugi Wa Thiong'o, and Ko Un. All of these authors shared unique talents in writing. In point of fact, Adonis, a Syrian essayist, translator, and poet, experimented with essential elements in his poetry. He rebelled against the standard poets to say the least, "I wanted to break the linearity of poetic text – to mess with it, if you will."

An overwhelming majority of governments and organizations around the world appreciate the dedication of Liu for his long time pursuing of human–rights improvement in China. Be that as it may, China has blockaded the news which sounds ridiculous to the standpoint of almost all the Chinese people. Recently, the comments of this controversial phenomenon, not exaggerative to say, as one falls another rises. In my point of view it's not a problem of who is right or wrong, which importantly counts is the respect for China. Closely following behind are the statements and analyses. ...

In this case, I think we should bridge the cultural differences between China and other countries, which hopefully leading to understanding, tolerance and even appreciation of different cultures and customs, which is the very theme of "avatar". Anyhow, China is not a queen who not only reign but also rain. None of the country leaders do not want to gain the peacefulness through their governance. People should be endowed with a global perspective to prevent their views and ideas from being too one–sided or suburban by listening to, comparing and even absorbing different opinions. Sometimes foreigner should stand at our side to rethink about the question in hand. Will you allow a non necessary reform appear along with disorders in public, while most of us live in happiness and satisfy with the measures country adopts now? ③the relationship between two countries Norway has been left scrambling to contain damage to its relations with China after the award of the Nobel peace prize to a Chinese dissident caused anger in Beijing. "We wish to continue our fruitful co–operation in all fields with China," Norwegian foreign ministry spokeswoman Ragnhild Imerslund said.

It's not only me who is being awarded this prestigious prize. My husband, Pierre Curie, and my colleague, Antoine–Henri Becquerel, are sharing this prize with me as well. Sadly, my husband or I cannot attend due to the fact that we are too sick. We have all dedicated numerous hours to earn award. Everyone has sacrificed something to make this discovery. I, myself, have worked super hard to receive an education. I grew up in Poland and the Russians did not want us to have an education, although I was quite intelligent. I eventually was so determined to obtain an education that I moved to Paris. It was incredibly expensive there to the point to which I could barely afford to survive. I could afford little food, but I was too stubborn to ask someone for money. Since I could not afford food, on occasion I fainted in class due to a lack of it. In addition, I spent the majority of my money on my education. Without being educated, I would not have been able to discover what I did in order to receive a Nobel Prize along with my colleagues who have also worked very hard. ...

  • 25. Criteria For A Nobel Prize Criteria for a Nobel Prize in Leadership Alan Weber (2009) wrote an article for the Washington Post, that focused on the criteria that one might use to suggest a nominee. In his article, Weber offered that candidacy for the prize should not be base upon "achievement broadly defined, or abstract qualities that can be attributed to leaders, but clear and undeniable moral authority" (Weber, 2009, para.1). Cook (2009) added that he would choose a nominee "who has pretty much transcended his or her own ego, and who sees humanity as interconnected in a vast system to which we all, ultimately, are contributing"(Cook, 2009, para.4).

In protest for not winning the Nobel Prize he resigned from many prestigious positions. After all, he had been nominated 35 times, but he never won the Nobel Prize. This was due to personal reasons, but also because he didn't go deeply in one field, instead he did a bit everywhere. He didn't make any ground–breaking discovery. Lewis was also not selected for the Manhattan Project and wasn't recognized as many of his colleagues at Berkeley were. He didn't have the cooperation that was vital for a team that was going to be developed an atomic bomb. Also, his field of study didn't align with the goal of the Manhattan Project.

Faulkner is a really worthy and famous writer that has a lot to say in his writings and I think that he accomplishes that when he writes. "On December 10, he delivered his acceptance speech to the academy in a voice so low and rapid that few could make out what he was saying, but when his words were published in the newspaper the following day, it was recognized for its brilliance; in later years, Faulkner's speech would be lauded as the best speech ever given at a Nobel ceremony." (Padgett) When William Faulkner gave his Nobel Acceptance Speech he had a quote in there and I think that he helped man endure by lifting his heart in A Rose for Emily, he also shows how ...

There were a lot of different emotions that were represented in this selection, but Faulkner didn't tell us that the characters were angry he used details to show us people's emotions. "Try to be better than yourself. An artist is a creature driven by demons. He doesn't know why they choose him and he's usually too busy to wonder why. He is completely amoral in that he will rob, borrow, beg, or steal from anybody and everybody to get the work done." (Faulkner/Stein) When he talks he uses a lot of emotion and that shows his style of writing. William Faulkner gave a Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech and in it he wrote about A Rose for Emily he gives himself challenges when he writes and one of the challenges is pity and sacrifice which has been the glory of the past. When he writes he is saying that the people who have had pity thrown upon them and the people who have made their sacrifices are the only ones who get the glory. "The human drama in Faulkner's novels is then built on the model of the actual, historical drama extending over almost a century and a half."

She helps us understand this by explaining the awful chain reactions that occur when we don't replenish what we have consumed from Earth. Third, she makes her call to action. She asks everyone to take part in something to help the environment. She addresses each group of people separately. Men and women of all races, children, young adults, everyone, can take part in something to help. "In the course of history, there comes a time when humanity is called to shift to a new level of consciousness, to reach a higher moral ground. A time when we have to shed our fear and give hope to each other. That time is now. (4)" Her sentence structure of "That time is now," really gives emphasis on what she wants. It is short and to the point. It's also a very simple sentence. She didn't replace simple words with fancier words. This shows that what she is asking from people isn't rocket science.

It was the mass genocide of millions of innocent jews, gays, Jehovah Witnesses, gypsies, and countless others. After the Holocaust, it is clear to society that we, as people, cannot stand by and watch as other human beings suffer from cruel acts in which they have no ability to defend themselves. In modern day, it seems as though ethnic cleansing is becoming less common, however, there are still many instances of it occurring around the world. In fact, the country of Myanmar is currently attempting to deprive its Rohingya citizens of their basic rights and exterminate them from the population. There were many things to be learned from the Holocaust, one of the most important including apathy toward discrimination and ethnic cleansing. In Elie Wiesel's Nobel Peace Prize Acceptance Speech about his experienced imprisonment in concentration camps, he explained that people "must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented". According to Wiesel, someone who stands by and does nothing while another person suffers is just as guilty as the offender. Additionally, he states in his speech The Perils of Indifference that, "Indifference reduces the other to an abstraction". A lack of compassion toward the victims of cruel treatment shows that they are of no concern. Prisoners ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Nobel Peace Prize Speech : Analysis Of Mother Teresa Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech Thousands of people struggling and were in poverty in India in the 70s, then a Catholic Nun named Mother Teresa came to the rescue to fight poverty, abortion and comfort the dying in India, specifically Calcutta. Mother Teresa, born Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu, was speaking in front of hundreds if not thousands of people, giving her "Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech" in December 11, 1979 in Oslo, Norway. Mother Teresa received this prestigious award for her work, which she give her everything to, also before receiving this award she also received numerous honour such as Ramon Magsaysay Award and she also funded Missionaries of Charity. For all the works that she done helping the poor in Calcutta, Catholic Church recognize her as "Saint Teresa of Calcutta". In "Mother Teresa's Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech" by Mother Teresa, she used imagery, polysyndeton and allusion to convince us of the importance of loving, sharing, giving and kindness. Mother Teresa point out the importance of giving and kindness using imagery during her speech. During the speech she talked about a man who was immobilize and smoking was his only companion. She claims, "the other day I received 15 dollars from a man who was on his back for twenty years, the only part that he can move is his right hand". Here we can see that even though the 15 dollars would've help the man with his cigarettes and he would've been happy for as long as it last but instead he gave it to Mother Teresa because he knows that he wanted to help other people too and giving the money to her made the man feels like he contributed in the poverty that Mother Teresa is fighting. She also talk about how poor people can teach the rich and the fortunates. And one day as continues on she talk about a woman who was dying and what the woman did and said to Mother Teresa completely surprise her. She states, " I put her in bed and there was such a beautiful smile on her face. She took hold of my hand, as she said one word only: Thank you and she died."

Everyone faces conflict of some sort in their lives, whether it be an argument over which sibling gets to sit in the front seat of the car on the way to school, or a potentially dangerous confrontation that necessitates an immediate reaction. Writers such as Susan Campbell Bartoletti and Elie Wiesel, who wrote "Hitler Youth: Growing Up in Hitler's Shadow" and "Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech" respectively, portray such situations. Bartoletti writes about how one German girl faced conflict during World War Two, and Wiesel shares his personal experience as a Jew in a concentration camp. Both works show that the most important aspect of facing a conflict is the way in which a person chooses to deal with it. One could react to conflict by becoming angry or sullen, shouting or going silent, or simply pouting. None of these reactions are the best –– some can even be counterproductive to one's goals. The best way to deal with conflict is to take a stand for one's beliefs. First off, standing up for one's beliefs creates many positive effects, for large groups of people as well as for the ...

In 2013, the 50 professors that constitute the Nobel Assembly awarded The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine to Randy W. Schekman, James E. Rothman, and Thomas C. Südhof for their contribution in uncovering the details of vesicle transport within a cell. More specifically, these scientists have elaborated on the knowledge of how cargo is delivered to the correct place within a eukaryotic cell at the correct time. The compartmentalized eukaryotic cell must retain the ability to ensure that correct vesicles are shipped to the required destination at appropriate times. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... In these mutant yeast cells, the typical vesicle transport system was abnormal, which allowed detection of specific genes that were related to these mutations. These screenings eventually led to the identification of twenty–three separate genes that could be classified into three groups based on their effects on membranes involved in traffic. These membranes include the endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi Apparatus, and the plasma membrane (Novick and Schekman, 1979). James Rothman dissected the transport mechanism by purifying and identifying proteins used in transport. The NSF, SNAP and SNARE proteins act as docking sites to enable vesicles to fuse to specific target membranes. This explains the precision of transport; the proteins only combined with certain cargo. The ability to purify the NSF protein was made possible by the identification of the VSV–G protein. The VSV–G protein is labeled by a sugar when it comes in contact with the Golgi Apparatus, simplifying documentation. Genes code for proteins used in fusion, exemplified by how the sec18 gene relates to NSF. Sec17 relates to the SNAP protein in a similar manner. The discovery of the SNAP protein allowed for the revelation of SNARE proteins found in brain tissue. SNARE proteins are a gateway to the fusion and docking of vesicles in a very specific manner: only an exclusive number of target SNAREs (t–SNAREs) would bind to specific vesicle SNAREs, or v– SNAREs ...

Alfred Nobel And The Nobel Peace Prize When the word "peace" comes to mind, one usually thinks about tranquility or absent from violence but when learning about Alfred Nobel, one learns that the products he invented were far from "peaceful" in some eyes. The Nobel Peace Prize was created because Nobel left in his will that his fortune was to be given as awards in the areas of: peace, chemistry, physiology, and literature. Alfred Nobel himself started with nothing and ended with a large fortune, and as for The Nobel Peace Prize, it has evolved over the last century into new ways no one saw occurring in the future. Alfred Nobel was born into bankruptcy in 1833 to Immanual Nobel and Andriette Ahlsell. According to Nils Ringertz, Alfred's father was eventually able to provide a "first–class" education to his sons that taught them language, sciences, and literature. At the end of his academics, Nobel was particularly fascinated with English literature and poetry. His father was not pleased by his interests so he sent him overseas to study chemical engineering. In Paris, France, Nobel met and worked with Ascanio Sobrero, the chemist who had discovered nitroglycerin [a highly explosive substance]. Ringertz states that "Alfred Nobel became very interested in nitroglycerin and how it could be put to practical use in construction work," with this new interest, Nobel took the chance with the substance and worked with it for years.

Only two US presidents, Theodore Roosevelt, and Barack Obama have received the award. Roosevelt was the first ever American to win this award. His life story and eventful experiences help shape him as the person we recognize as an impactful person in history. Theodore Roosevelt was born on October 27th of 1858 into a Dutch family living in New York. As a child, he struggled with his asthma. Many of his family members called him "Teddy", a name he wasn't found of. However, that name latched on until people used his nickname to make a toy many of us are familiar with, a Teddy Bear. His father, Theodore Roosevelt Sr., knew he was very intelligent but thought he did not have the body to match. He told him to "make his body" by exercising, so young Theodore did and became stronger. This led him to gain an interest in wrestling and weightlifting. When Theodore became a teenager he also became interested in gymnastics and continued to enjoy sports into his college years and beyond. Roosevelt went to Harvard College and spent 4 years there. At Harvard, he studied natural science as his major at first, however when his father died he switched his major to law. He excelled in sports and education and found a good balance between the two. Roosevelt had an interesting and influential family that helped him be the person we know starting with his first child. On February 12, 1884, ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Edwards discovered that an embryo can be fertilized in a Petri dish in a laboratory ((4) http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/medicine/laureates/2010/adv.html).

To retrieve the eggs a minor operation is required, sedation and anesthesia is used to prevent discomfort. A hollow needle is inserted through the pelvic cavity into the ovary to collect the eggs. Now the sperm is needed for completion of the procedure, this is collected by ejaculation. The process of insemination now begins; a single sperm is injected into the egg for fertilization.

The 1981 Nobel Prize Of Physiology And Medicine The 1981 Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine In the year of 1981 three gentlemen were awarded The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine where the prize was divided and then shared amongst the three men. At the time of awarding, the three gentlemen specialized in the field of neurophysiology while two also specialized in the field of ocular physiology. One–half of the prize was awarded to Roger W. Sperry for his discoveries involving the cerebral hemispheres whereas the other half was awarded and split between David H. Hubel and Torsten N. Wiesel for their findings on the visual system. Therefore, together their research altered how people originally thought the brain processed information by verifying how the brain functions and why information is perceived in such a manner. The research conducted by Roger W. Sperry began in the 1960's and dealt solely with the cerebrum. Before this time, society only understood the left hemisphere of the brain to be dominant over the right hemisphere. In this understanding, the cerebrum was composed of two halves, which were referred to as the hemispheres. The cerebrum consisted of the two hemispheres and millions of nerve fibers that allowed each hemisphere to distinguish what occurred in the other hemisphere. In the same sense, it was understood that although both the left and right hemisphere were the same in structure, their functions differed.

That's where The Carter Center stepped in to aid struggling families in Africa. Led by former president Jimmy Carter and his wife, they were able to bring cures to villages that have none. Some people may say that the Carters just want to gain media attention but I will prove that is not the case. The purpose of this essay is to show why I believe the Carter Center should be awarded the "Nobel Peace Prize." The first reason why The Carter Center should win the Nobel Peace prize is they assist people in thousands of villages with diseases that don't have a cure in their country. The biggest epidemic that the Carter Center was involved in was the Guinea worm disease. In just one years' time the Center reduced the disease by a whopping 99 percent! That number decreased from 3.5 million to less then 11,000. Since the Center has many people to help throughout the world, they teach the people who are at the center of the disease to cure it themselves. To do this, the Carter Center train volunteers within the thousands of villages who are the main reason the diseases are cured. However, this not the only reason the Carter Center should win the "Nobel Peace Prize." ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... To cure Guinea worm they took an extremely low–tech approach.

That's how long Malala Yousafzai's Nobel Prize speech was, and it was jampacked full of rhetorical devices such as figurative language, repetition, and parallel structure. You could go and watch it, but you'll get the same content from reading this paper, and it'll take half of the time. There are many instances of figurative language that can be found within Malala's speech, but I'm just going to highlight the ones that stuck out to me. One of the most impactful uses of figurative language that I came across was a metaphor. In order to convey determination to learn, she referenced her "thirst for education." I thought that this was very impactful because it compares education to one of the basic necessities of life, water.

Rosalind Franklin and the Nobel Prize In considering whether or not Rosalind Franklin should have been acknowledged, along with Watson, Crick, and Wilkins, for the discovery of the double helix and awarded a Nobel Prize, one must look what qualifies someone to win a Nobel Prize. In order for someone to be awarded the Nobel Prize they must first meet the qualifications. The qualifications are endless, but somewhat simple. In this case the Nobel Prize is for science. This prize is chosen by a group of people, and they seek to choose people whom create different views of topics in the field they are studying. The main candidate is consistently searching to find new ideas of the concerning topic, that could enhance the knowledge that people already have on a problem or solution in the world. The Nobel Committee sends persons who are believed to hold the qualifications of a Nobel Prize a form of proposal. The candidates are not chosen at random, but are recommended by others who have excelled in their field of work. The other nominations are not made public, but concealed for a period of 50 years (NobelPrize.org). Franklin should be awarded the prize because her work is both philosophical and instrumental. Although it is hard to determine to what lengths Franklin contributed philosophically to Watson's double helix discovery, it is apparent that she contributed immensely in the sense of instrumental work. With out Franklin, Watson would not have the X–ray pictures that support the helical DNA structure that he is ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

In opposition to the improvement of society, is the fact that Nobel's other known inventions brought much death and destruction to the world (Frost). This combination of inventions helps to pose the question who was Alfred Nobel, and why did Nobel create this prize to help the world.

Petersburg where he excelled in his studies, especially chemistry (Fant). As Alfred Nobel grew into a young man he became well traveled, and consequently learned five different languages fluently (Fant). In his spare time he wrote novels, poetry, and plays (Fant). As Nobel got older, he started to help in his father's workshop. While working at the workshop Nobel learned about and became fascinated by nitroglycerin (Frost). Nobel and his father became very competitive in trying to find out who was better at creating a "massive explosion" (Frost). Young Nobel finally won the competition with his father by using nitroglycerin to create a larger explosive device (Frost). Afterwards, Alfred Nobel discovered how to utilize the power contained within the nitroglycerin compound; however it was still a very volatile substance (Dynamite). Nobel knew there was a huge potential for such an explosive but he needed to figure out a way to make it safer. Nobel "worked 16 hours a day" to find out how to harness the power of this unstable destructive substance (Dynamite). In 1864 a large amount of nitroglycerin exploded accidentally at the factory where Nobel worked with the dangerous substance (Frost). Nobel's younger brother, Emil, was killed in the accident. Determined to find a way to make this explosive safer to use, Nobel returned to work the next day and worked day and night.

The first purpose is stated in the title – to accept his award of the Nobel Peace Prize. The second intent he had when writing the speech was to reiterate his points that awarded him the honor in the first place. The speech explains his passion for the problem in our world that is the climate change and how much we pollute our earth. To give a short gist of what his cause was, the following quote offers much insight to the regretful aspect of our society that he is passionate about fixing. He says "So today, we dumped another 70 million tons of global–warming pollution into the thin shell of atmosphere surrounding our planet, ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... His call to actions is for us to "choose between two futures." He goes on to explain further by challenging the reader to challenge assumption as well as repetition. Challenging us to question the repetition that would eminently happen if we don't unify and majorly change our actions. His persuasion is made very strong and hard–hitting when he says "we are standing at the most fateful fork in that path. So I want to end as I began, with a vision of two futures – each a palpable possibility – and with a prayer that we will see with vivid clarity the necessity of choosing between those two futures, and the urgency of making the right choice now." Reading this quote gives the feeling of being very inspired and feeling empowered. That being said, I feel Gore should have given more concrete action that he proposes we take. He should have said things such as we should stop allowing every person to drive a motor vehicle as much as they please. If he'd said something along those lines, it puts a specific concern in mind and helps along the putting the reality of better, healthier world into fruition. He also could have proposed that perhaps every person who owns a vehicle be required to plant a tree once a year. His speech was powerful with lots of drawing of parallels, a lot of analogies, and many accounts of making associations. While he is lacking a concrete and specific remedy for our current situation, maybe it is okay. Perhaps all we need is to see that we do have a choice in how we can influence the world, and the rest is up to us to draw from the inspiration and coordinate our own, personal next move to attain the goal that has been ...

After these large particles are packaged in vesicles, if the molecules are to be secreted from the cell, the transport vesicles fuse with the plasma membrane in a process called exocytosis. James Rothman discovered that "this process is done very precisely as specific protein complexes on the transport vesicles and specific proteins on the plasma membrane bind together to cause this fusion" (1). When the cell takes in particles from the outside, the cell sinks inward to form a vesicle of materials from the outside in the same principle that James Rothman identified.

For instance, during the speech, Wiesel states that he has "...tried to keep the memory alive..." and "...tried to fight those who would forget." Wiesel is trying to convey to the audience that such traumatic events, like the Holocaust, should not be forgotten. If such genocides are forgotten, the people who lost their lives sacrificed themselves for nothing. Also, Wiesel, later on in his speech, says, "if we forget who the guilty are, we are accomplices."

Wiesel says he can relate to what the Jewish had to go through during the Holocaust which implies that he has gone through a similar experience himself. Because of this, he feels biased towards the Jews, or the sufferers, and feels that the tormentors should not be allowed to make people suffer and have it go ignored by the world. Also, he states, later on in his speech, that "silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented" (Wiesel). During the Holocaust, people were aware that the Jews were tortured but did not speak up because they were afraid of the consequences. Wiesel is communicating to the audience that if someone is aware of the oppression going on in the world but does not say anything, then they are helping the tormentors by making them feel it is alright to oppress someone.

He has been singing and has been in bands since he was a teenager and has listened to songs from an even earlier age. He has been given many awards for his songs and has grown a reputation.

Alfred Nobel wants "outstanding" literature from the Literature Prize winner which is stated in his will, "...one part to the person who shall have produced in the field of literature the most outstanding work in an ideal direction." Bob Dylan has created many outstanding songs which can be proven by the awards he had won. Biography states some of the few awards, "The legendary singer–songwriter has received Grammy, Academy and Golden Globe awards, as well as the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Nobel Prize for Literature." These prizes exhibit that Bob Dylan's work must be very impressive to have won so many awards and it further supports the reason to give him another. This also brings up the argument that Bob Dylan has too much spotlight and "real" literature writers deserve. In the article "Why Bob Dylan Shouldn't Have Gotten The Nobel Prize" nytimes.com states, "The legendary singer–songwriter has received Grammy, Academy and Golden Globe awards, as well as the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Nobel Prize for Literature...By honoring a musical icon, the committee members may have wanted to bring new cultural currency to the prize and make it feel relevant to a younger generation. But there are many ways they could have accomplished this while still honoring a writer." This article is expressing that awarding a writer would be more appropriate for the Nobel Prize and that Dylan has already won plenty of awards. However, this would be saying that someone who is passionate and elaborate in their work all time should not be recognized because someone else wants a chance. This is saying that a person who gets 100 as their grade all the time should not be credit because someone who got a 90 deserves a chance. In ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

It was later called "Roentgen Rays" although changed back to "X–Ray". With his new discovery, he found that the rays would travel through human tissue, but leave a shadow of bone and metal behind. One of his first experiments was on his wife Bertha's hand with a ring on her finger in 1895. Medical X–rays work by letting fast moving electrons come to a sudden stop on a metal plate. They show up different on the radiograph because of different absorption rates of different material. The calcium in bones absorb the most x–rays so they appear white on a radiograph, or the film x– rays are displayed on, although other things like tissue, fat and skin absorb it less so they appear grey. Air absorbs the least x–rays so this is why lungs look completely black on a radiograph. Todays x–ray machines are much faster, more efficient and produce much less harmful radiation. Excessive exposure to x–rays can be dangerous but in modern medicine doctors are able to keep us safe with their knowledge on this. The original x–ray machine took 90 minutes and produced 1500 times the radiation as modern x–rays. Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen has made a huge impact on todays technology.
