	Nobel Prize - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Nobel Prizes are prizes instituted by the will of Alfred Nobel, awarded to people (and also to organizations in the case of the Nobel Peace Prize) who have done outstanding research, invented groundbreaking techniques or equipment, or made outstanding contributions to society.
		Although Nobel's will established the prizes, because his plan was incomplete and due to various other hurdles, it took five years before the Nobel Foundation could be established and the first prizes awarded in 1901.
		A common legend states that Nobel decided against a prize in mathematics because a woman he proposed to (or his wife, or his mistress) rejected him or cheated on him with a famous mathematician, often claimed to be Gösta Mittag-Leffler.

	Some Thoughts about Jews, IQ and Nobel Laureates
		A dialogue between an eleven-year-old prodigy and his mentor leads to a conjecture on the achievements of Ashkenazic Jews, and an estimate of the mean IQ of the Nobel laureates.
		That is, to 3 figures we predict the average IQ of the Jewish laureates to be 145.
		Sparing you the obvious arithmetic, we estimate the average IQ of the laureates overall to be 144.2 or simply 144, the same as the non-Jewish average.
