Alfred Nobel

Pondicherry is the capital city and the largest city of the union territory of Puducherry, India.

There were many great chefs in the 20th century. They include: * Alain Chapel * André Daguin * Alain Ducasse * Alain Passard * Alain Senderens * Alexandre Dumaine * Alfredo Russo * Anne-Sophie Pic * Bernard Loiseau * Bernard Ravet * Bruno Oger * Caesar Cardini * Chaz Fable * Christian Le Squer * Cyril Lignac * Daniel Boulud * Denis Martin * Ettore Boiardi, aka Chef Boyardee * Eugène Herbodeau * Brazier (La mère) * Fernand Point à Vienne * Frédy Girardet * Frères Troisgros * Gaston Clément, Belgian food expert and writer * Gaston Lenôtre, pâtissier, M.O.F * Georges Blanc * Gérald Passédat * Gérard Dupont * Gérard Rabaey * Gilbert Wenzler * Gordon James Ramsay * Guy Fieri * Guy Martin * Guy Savoy * Hélène Darroze * Heston Blumenthal * Hisayuki Takeuchi * Jacques et Laurent Pourcel * Jacques Lameloise * Jacques Pépin * Jamie Oliver * Jean Bardet * Jean-François Piège * Jean Michel Lorain * Joël Robuchon * Jean-Robert Laloy * Joseph Donon * Julia Child * Klaus Erfort * Maïté * Marc et Paul Haeberlin * Marc Meneau * Marc Veyrat, cuisinier in Annecy and Megève * Marco Pierre White * Martín Berasategui * Mère Poulard * Michel Bras * Michel Bruneau * Michel Guérard * Michel Oliver * Michel Roth * Michel Sarran * Nadia Santini * Olivier Bellin * Olivier Roellinger * Patrick Bertron * Patrick Henriroux * Paul Bocuse * Philippe Chevrier * Philippe Laloux * Philippe Rochat in Crissier * Pierre Gagnaire * Pierre Wynants in Brussels * Raymond Blanc * Raymond Oliver * Régis Marcon * René Verdon * Roger Vergé * Roland Pierroz * Sarah Wiener * Thierry Marx * Troisgros les frères * Vincent Arnould * Wolfgang Puck * Yves Camdeborde * Yves Thuriès

The list is obviously endless. Below are just a few: Ludwig van Beethoven - famous classical musician known to be deaf Christopher Reeve - crippled after a horse-riding injury. Goya - Spanish painter (1746-1828). At age 46, an illness left him deaf. John Milton - English author/poet (1608-1674): He became blind at age 43.

I had heard that Alfred Drake went to Brooklyn College, Brooklyn, NY. Ilooked this up hoping to confirm.

Class of 1936. An A D award is given by theater dept

Peyton Willams Manning

Florence died at the age of 90 on the 13th AUG 1910 in park lane London she died due to colera

This is a very subjective, purely based upon what you're trying to achieve. From a large-scale historical perspective, a good argument can be made towards the leadership of August Caesar. His leadership helped stabilize the fledgling Roman "Empire," and it blossomed under him.

A strong case can be made for Charlemagne as well with his contribution to the Frank people.

If you're talking from a revolutionary standpoint, Mao Tse Tung should be placed near the top of any list - his ability to unify agrarian China and revolutionize the way the country was ran can be considered remarkable.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt help rescue America from one of the darkest economic disasters in the post-industrial history of the world.

A couple others to think about, in no particular order...

Napoleon Bonaparte

Abraham Lincoln

Winston Churchill

Adolf Hitler (yes, I mention him in this list - it's all subjective, but his economic principles were sound. In fact, Volkswagon is still around today - and that was a work of Hitler!)

Lenin

Cleopatra

Genghis Khan

Richard I

Catherine the Great

Ho Chi Minh

Nelson Mandela

Julius Caesar

Alexander the Great

Cyrus

Peter the Great

Shi Huang Di (Unified China)

I did not mention religious leaders as a rule of thumb. Although they are powerful in their own right, they would not be considered a great "world leader" as they were founders of their respective religions and as such, religion is open to interpretation and will usually be dependant on the religion of the reader.

Carl's Answers(Not including Jesus)

1. Charles Martel:He won the historic battle of Tours in 10 October 732 against the Berbers, therefore saving the world and Christianity for Muslim(Berber) rule.......He was also the grand father of Charles the great(Charlemagne)

2. St. Joan Of Arc: She had visions in which see saw saints and saved France from the English

3. Alexander The Great: He conquered one of the biggest empire in a short time( The Roman Empires took years to flourish)

4. Constantine I: He was the first Christian ruler of the Roman empire. Although he ruled only the Eastern Roman Empire he conquered the Western Roman Empire too.He made Christianity the official religion of The Roman Empire, therefore allowing it to flourish.

5. Napoleon Bonaparte: The ended the first republic in France and changed the way battles were fought.

6. King Richard Coeur De Lion(The I): He was a great warrior and defeated Saladin and made peace with him(Because he did not reach Jerusalem)

7. Charlemagne: He was the grandson of the great Charles Martel, he ruled over the biggest empire in Europe since Roman times and was the first emperor to get the title of Holy Roman Emperor

There are many more great people, who were great leaders, However their list is very big it will take more than a lifetime to right about them

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Another great leader is Adolf Hilter. Even though his intentions were evil he brought a country that was poor, weak, and owed money to the rest of the world into one of the most feared super powers that history has ever seen. Once this country reached its peak every other nation feared Germany. That is why Adolf Hitler was one of the greatest leaders of all time.

As Aesop was a slave and he lived prior to the time of Christ marriage would not have been allow the likes of him.

And while it is true he was a slave (but eventually freed), slaves weren't expressly forbidden to wed. Usually slaves were bred though, like livestock. And because Aesop is widely regarded to have been disfigured in some way and is often depicted as being ugly, misshapen or even as a dwarf, I find it unlikely that any man wouldn't have allowed his daughter to marry a man in his condition, even more so as a slave.

Franz Ferdinand is one of the key people of course. His assassination in Sarajevo precipitated the Austrian declaration of war. This caused countries allied with Austria-Hungary (the Central Powers) and countries allied with Serbia (the Entente Powers) to declare war on each other, starting World War I.

By the time Alfred Nobel died, he held over 350 patents.

It was President Theodore Roosevelt who was responsible for officially establishing The White House as the building's official name. Theodore Roosevelt was the 26th President of the United States.

It is a fact that Alfred Nobel is not a Muslim. Alfred Nobel and both of his parents are Swedish.

We grow a little more than 2 billion tonnes of grains and oilseeds each year, and eat about 65% of that as humans. We convert 30% to meat by feeding livestock (and 3-5% into fuel through ethanol production). To feed 9 billion human beings by 2050, a 35% increase or so, we will have to: a) grow something like 35% more food. Very importantly, we have to do so by being more productive on the cropland we have, rather than removing more natural habitat. Hard to see how we'll do this without more and better technology. or b) feed a lower proportion of our yearly grains and oilseeds production to animals, and eat it ourselves instead. This implies eating less meat. or c) avoid using too much of our food supply for fuel. It's currently not huge, but if its growth were to continue it could become so. The answer is probably all of the above. We grow a little more than 2 billion tonnes of grains and oilseeds each year, and eat about 65% of that as humans.

This is a question with out an answer. "Greatest" doesnt have a definition and the results will vary from opinion to opinion. Spoken of often in talks of the greatest QB of all time are usually a small group of players. In no specific order here is a list of what is believed to be the Best of the Best. Joe Monatana Dan Marino Johnny Unitas John Elway Brett Favre Tom Brady Peyton Manning As well as a few others. It becomes opinion since there is no clear definition of who is the best. Is it stats? Is it Championship rings? No one knows. So in the grand scheme of things this will go down as an mystery. (Unless Manning or Brady can win some more).

Alfred Soord (1868-1915) was a painter whose most famous work is a painting of the parable of the lost sheep, depicting a sheep stranded halfway down a steep cliff and the shepherd hanging perilously over the edge, risking his own life to save it. He also has a portrait of Herbert Maxwell hanging in the National Portrait Gallery in Londond

The best would have to be Maradona, or Gerrard if you are talking still alive

Di Stefano, Zidane, Maradona or Platini. For a full list of the 40 best see here:
