A dog and a cat are having an argument about which one a human prefers.
The dog says, "Humans like us more. They have even named a tooth after us!"
The cat smiles and says, "You are really not going to win this one you know!"
A Termite walks into a bar
And says is the bar tender here
Royal College of ChemistryIn 1846, Prince Albert laid the first stone for the College of Chemistry. It was founded in Jul 1845 for the purpose of instruction in chemistry with a well-appointed laboratory. Although the first British public laboratory appears to have been opened by Thomas Thomson in Glasgow (1817), the College of Chemistry in London provided the first important step for providing students the means for the systematic study of chemistry at moderate expense. The laboratories were designed by August Wilhelm Hofman, who accepted a professorship in 1845 at the instigation of Prince Albert. It became the Royal College of Chemistry in 1853 when it was taken over by the government. Sir Edward Frankland followed Hofman in 1864. In 1907 it was incorporated in the Imperial College of Science and Technology.« |
