So Begins the Nobel Prize’s

Hello Gentle Reader

On Monday October third of two-thousand and eleven, the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine was announced. However this is an interesting ordeal that has happened, with the announcement of the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine, the Nobel Committee is now faced with an interesting dilemma. With giving the award Jules Hoffmann of Luxembourg, Bruce Beutler of the United States, and the Canadian Ralph Steinman, nothing appears out of the abnormal. However Ralph Steinman has died three days before the Prize was announced. This leads to an interesting situation for the Nobel Committee, because no Nobel Prize be it Medicine, Physics, Chemistry, Literature and Physics not to mention Peace, can be awarded to a recipient posthumously. Ralph Steinman died three days ago, after his battle with pancreatic cancer. This leads the Nobel Committee in an interesting situation. It is unsure of how the Nobel Committee will deal with this unique situation. Tuesday October 4th the Nobel Prize for Physics is to be announced, while the fifth of October is to be awarded, and Thursday October sixth, the Nobel Prize for Literature is awarded.
