prize

Here's the challenge rules. Craft a truly well written post. Get it nominated (bribe people if you must) Get The Language Dictator to make your nomination one of the finalists (bribery won't help here) Get everyone to vote for it. (Okay, bribery works again now).And that's it. If you...

You will vote for the April Language Award. Well, some of you will anyway. Some of you maybe have already. (I can't tell for sure. My power is somewhat limited). You, on the other hand, have the power to elect the next winner of $20 in JREF merchandise. Use the power. I know you can.

Well you're wrong. Lots of people care. Are you one of them? Then vote for the April Language Award and give some caring person $20 in JREF goodies. Or so they want you to think...

Well, you can't. But you can elect the April winner of The Language Award. And unlike God, they are eligible for a wonderful prize of $20 in JREF merchandise. Now I know what the Bible meant when the Big Guy says, "I am a jealous God".

He still couldn't have voted for the winner in the April Language award. Only JREF members can do that. And yet, some people still ignore this precious freedom. Don't be one of them.

STOCKHOLM — Of the three Nobel Prizes announced this week, the five different researchers share one common trait: They're all American. The members who cast the ballots for the winners of the prizes in medicine, physics and chemistry aren't surprised. Gunnar Oquist, the permanent secretary for...

...to two physicists for their work on the spectrum of the cosmic microwave background radiation, and the anisotropy therein: http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/europe/10/03/nobel.physics.ap/index.html (An aside: I knew Smoot when I was a grad student at UC Berkeley.)

I know the prize is usually for "paranormal" events, but would someone proving the existence of "chemtrails" be elgible? I am wondering because I'm in the middle of a debate with someone who now claims that he has personally seen "chemtrails" being distributed. He offered photos but I demanded...

From MSNBC news online: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/10010619/ Hey, Beerina.... How soon will that moon colony be operational?

I wonder how nobody from our British friends has started a thread about that. One of the living legends of modern theatre, the British writer Harold Pinter, won the Nobel Prize for Literature. I am thrilled with the news because just before the announcement I was wondering which unknown...

Congratulations to Barry Marshall and Robert Warren, who have been awarded the 2005 Nobel Prize for Medicine for demonstrating the role of Helicobacter pylori in stomach ulcers. Homeopaths and others take note: here we have someone who was up against the medical establishment and “Big Pharma”...

That's four Kumar topics in a row, none of which in my opinion make a great deal of sense. Is that a record? Does 'four in a row' get a prize? Athon

It worries me that the brief of the JREF extends beynd the paranormal or supernatural into the realms of conventional fraud. It's not that pseudoscience of the type covered by Randi almost every week in his commentaries isn't worthy of being brought to light, rather that I think it potentially...

This year's prize goes to Elfriede Jelinek of austria, who writes plays against the U.S. invasion of Iraq. Who is this person? I've never heard of her. Also the co-winner is Kenya's Wangari Maathai (big on your reading list, right?) who suggests that AIDS is a biological weapon that the West...

Once again the Nobel prizes are being awarded and once again Americans shared in all the prizes in the sciences. It must be something in the water because there is no way that our evil, capitalist culture could be good in any way. Six American shared the prizes along with 2 Israelis. This...

Does anyone have predictions as to who's going to win - any category. I don't know enough about how they choose the finalists or the winner. http://nobelprize.org/

It finally appears as if someone is about to claim the X prize. Article

THIS IS A NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC. alienrockwherediditcomefrom.com This is a notice to the public that I intend to challenge for the one million dollar prize offered by the Randi challenge. Dalton

A very public squabble is developing over the decision to award this year's Nobel Prize for Medicine to two developers of Magnetic Resonance Imaging but not the actual inventor. The man who did not win Here's the juicy bit: So what do you think? Should the committee let Dr. Damadian's...
