Albert Einstein, the Dishonest Newton? By Vincent Wilmot

Newton's black-box physics.
From laws of force and motion in mechanics, Isaac Newton developed laws of orbital motion around 'centres of force' and saw gravity as governing the motions of the celestial bodies as well as apples falling from trees. But despite using the 'force' terminology perhaps more readily associated with mechanics, Newton concluded that gravity might be due to unseen signals acting across empty space in line with William Gilbert's physics theory, or might be caused by the impact force of unseen ether matter in line with Rene Descartes physics.
But Newton saw his laws of science as correctly predicting natural events without the need to know why things happened, in the manner of 'black box' behaviour laws that related only inputs or stimuli to outputs or responses. Newton considered hypotheses regarding unseens like 'gravity signals crossing space' or 'ether matter filling space' as matters of philosophy or logic and not science, but as not easily disproven by science. Newton's physics was about what the universe did, but explicitly excluded explanations of why.
Up to Albert Einstein's time, physicists and astronomers had been almost all agreed that the physical universe followed basically simple laws of behaviour, and that their observations and experiments showed that. But technology and experiments became more sophisticated and seemed to be showing that the physical universe followed more complex laws of behaviour, perhaps even defying logic, and so Einstein developed his physics theory.
Einstein's space-time physics.
Einstein's view of gravity involved a substantially different kind of Descartes 'ether matter' filling space. Einstein concluded that there existed a space-time continuum whose local metrical qualities differ in the environment of different points of space-time, being partly conditioned by the matter existing outside of the territory under consideration. This space-time variability of the reciprocal relations of the standards of space and time, required that "empty space'' in its physical relation be neither homogeneous nor isotropic and its state be described by ten functions (of the gravitation potentials g) - space not being physically empty. This 'ether' of Einstein's general theory of relativity is a medium which is itself devoid of all mechanical and kinematical qualities, but somehow helps to determine mechanical (and electromagnetic) events.
What is fundamentally new in the ether of Einstein's general theory of relativity as opposed to the ethers of Descartes or Lorentz consists in its state at every place being determined by connections with the matter and the state of the ether in neighbouring places which are amenable to law in the form of differential equations. And in Einstein's space-time continuum, time itself becomes variable. There hence can be no space nor any part of space without gravitational potentials; for these confer upon space-time its metrical qualities, without which a space-time continuum cannot be imagined at all.
Einstein being dishonest to himself ?
In Einstein's general relativity physics bodies impose curves on his time-space-gravity continuum, and the continuum imposes motion on bodies. Although push-physics analogies such as rubber-sheets are often used to 'explain' this, the theory does not involve any push-physics mechanism and indeed does not specify any clear mechanism for this. Gravitational forces of any kind are completely abolished as controlling the motion of planets or other bodies, and somehow space-curves do this - logically by pushings yet seemingly without having any push properties since the continuum is non-material ?
Einstein concluded that "the ether of the general theory of relativity is a medium which is itself devoid of all mechanical and kinematical qualities, but helps to determine mechanical (and electromagnetic) events." But if this leaves the improved maths of Einstein's theory with no realistic explanation of why the universe works as it does, then his theory must be basically taken (as Newton intended his theory to be taken) as a blackbox theory of what happens with the real why explanation an unknown.
Yet Einstein did repeatedly allow of 'rubber-sheets' type anologies for his theory's supposed why explanations - when it actually has no why explanation. He was perhaps not being intentionally dishonest to the world, but almost certainy was being dishonest with himself in not fully facing his theory's chief weakness - its being basically an improved Newton black-box physics and not more than that ?
The maths of Einstein's theory certainly seems to predict better than the maths of Newton's theory in some areas, but that in itself is perhaps no proof of Einstein's theory of what the universe is and does - and still less of any explanation of why it works ? Albert Einstein's theory of relativity even he considered to be at least incomplete, and perhaps also giving no real explanation, and now it perhaps is chiefly supported by cosmologists and astronomers. But despite modern quantum physics development like string, loop and other quantal theories that seem supported mostly by 'particle physicists' using field and particle-wave duality ideas, it can perhaps be said that nobody has yet successfully published any physics theory better than Einstein's still limited theory ?

The Life and Times of Albert Einstein By Darren R Sturridge

Most of us, if not everyone knows Albert Einstein or have at least heard of him. He is a famous scientist. He is the one who is associated with the famous formula involving the speed of light. And his contributions are always remembered and cited whenever scientific explanations or different concepts are explained and elaborated. But who is Albert Einstein as a person anyway?
Albert Einstein was born in Ulm, Germany on March 14, 1879. His father Hermann Einstein was an engineer and his mother was Pauline Einstein. He spent his elementary days in a Catholic school when his family moved to Munich. His curiosity about how some kind of force is deflecting the needles of a compass has in some way led him to be a known scientist today.
When his family moved to Italy, he continued to study in Switzerland and there he had high quality physics teacher and facilities. And when he got employed in a Swiss patent office in Bern, he spent his spare time doing his own works and publications about theoretical physics without any kind of help from anybody.
His works earned him his doctorate degree in Zurich and then a Privatdozent in Berne. It did not take him long to obtain a regular appointment afterwards until he became a director.
He was married twice. And he died on April 18, 1955 leaving a remnant of his great works which until now is still considered as a fundamental concept in the area of theoretical physics. Albert Einstein achieved so much in a short span of time and he contributed a lot through his works throughout his entire life.
My name is Darren and I love all things scientific. I own the http://www.physicsschool.co.uk website. On it you can find a more detailed Albert Einstein Biography and information on his works and that of other famous scientists.

A Well Known Genuis - Albert Einstein By Shawna S. Ruppert

Some people help shape the world through their work and their legacy, others completely reform it in a flash with their accomplishments. Albert Einstein was one of the latter, and many scientists believe that people will still be making new discoveries and finding new applications based on his theories for generations to come. Albert Einstein trivia begins with the fact that he was born in 1879 in the German Empire. He was not as many have imagined some kind of child prodigy, although he did show aptitude for mathematics. Einstein's genius came more from the fact that he worked hard and believed in allowing for free thinking and creativity in learning, something that would make him clash with teachers and members of the educational institutions he attended on more than one occasion, facts likely to appear on any Albert Einstein quiz.
Albert Einstein trivia can be a bit complex for those who are not physicists themselves, simply because most of the mans work and writing were so technical and specific that it can be hard for the non-initiate to grasp the significance of many of these discoveries. His earlier work however, regarded proving the existence of atoms for one, something which was suspected but not entirely accepted by the scientific community, and thermodynamics for a second.
An Albert Einstein quiz is almost certainly going to reference his theory of relativity, easily the most well known equation in modern science, although most who could quote the equation could not explain its true significance. The formula is of course E=mc2 which describes how a large amount of energy is contained in tiny amounts of mass. The most famous, or infamous, development which arose from this equation is the development of the nuclear bomb.
Albert Einstein, despite being one of the most important minds of the past century, was as all men are, imperfect, and did make mistakes in his papers or posit theories which were later disproved. Although, like any good scientist he was happy to revise his position when he was proven wrong. One concept that he was frequently against was the possibility that a black hole could form, and his opinions were of course so well respected that it would take until several years after his death for people to change their opinions on this matter. Einstein was the recipient of the nobel prize for physics in 1921, for his discovery of the photoelectric effect.

Albert Einstein - Evidence of the Paranormal? By Karl Merkel

In this modern world of ours, it is easy to accept science as our benefactor and religion as our enemy. All around us we continually see the miracles that science and engineering provides us. But when we turn to religion, we experience few if any real miracles ourselves. In place of the concrete evidence we desperately desire, we are generally told simply to accept hearsay, with the result that we are often left with little reward to show for our faith. And all too often, in fact, we find ourselves feeling far more confused by religion than enlightened.
Given this bias in favor of science over religion that appears to exist in our world today, is there any reason for someone to believe that science's view of the world might not be entirely accurate or complete? Could our scientists possibly be overlooking something rather peculiar and important about the way the world really works? Could there be a significant spiritual or paranormal aspect to our existence that we have somehow overlooked or that has intentionally been hidden from us?
I believe there is, and I believe that I have found some rather convincing evidence in support of that belief. But the evidence I have to offer is not found in some sort of proof of either extrasensory perception or ghosts. Nor is it found in astrology, tarot cards, numerology or other, commonly alleged paranormal phenomena. Rather the evidence I have stumbled upon can incredibly be found within a single name: Albert Einstein.
Obviously, this is going to take a bit of explaining.
A couple years ago I began to study the English language in earnest. When I say "study", however, I do not mean that I studied English grammar, composition and/or etymology as one might typically do in high school or college. Rather, I mean that I began to study English words as though they were from some sort of ancient, as yet to be deciphered language, like Mycenaean Linear A.
And what I discovered through such research was rather remarkable. Specifically, I discovered that each letter in the Latin alphabet (which is also the English alphabet) appears to have a set of distinct meanings associated with it. While most linguists generally assume that a word like bridge is merely a random sequence of sounds and letters that, over time, happened to become associated with a particular object, I found that the letters in words likebridge do not appear to be random at all; instead, the letters in bridge and many words like it appear as if to have been carefully chosen based on the meanings associated with them.
As remarkable as those discoveries may sound, I also discovered another rather curious phenomenon. Specifically, I found that, when names were translated based on their letter meanings, the resulting translations appeared to describe key events and/or other significant facts related to the people and places named. And, as it happens, the name Albert Einstein illustrates that phenomenon extremely well.
Every high school student, of course, knows the name Albert Einstein. Einstein was the physicist who came up with the General Theory of Relativity, a theory that effectively rewrote the book when it came to mankind's understanding of the physical universe. And equally famous as is Einstein's name is his formula: e = mc2.  Einstein's name and formula are so well known, in fact, that they have literally become synonymous; the mere mention of one immediately evokes the other.
What many high school students don't currently know, however, is that Einstein's name, when translated using the letter meanings I identified, can only be described as miraculous.  Using the letter meanings I identified, Einstein's first name Albert can be translated as "below surface round object, out of movement that" and his last name,Einstein, can be translated as "out of within related, c related c, that out of light related". The significance of those translations may not be immediately obvious to you, so I will explain what they appear to represent.
Both translations appear to be related to the physics of small particles. "Below surface round object", for example, appears to be a description of an atom. "Out of movement that" appears to be a reference to the kinetic energy of the atom. "Out of within related" appears to be a description of mass, which is an intrinsic property of matter. "C related c" can be seen as being equivalent to c2, and "that out of light related" can be seen as indicating that the "c related c" has something to do with light and perhaps, even more specifically, to the movement of light. Taken together, in fact, Albert Einstein's first name appears to accurately describe the left side of his famous equation while his last name appears to accurately describe the right side of the equation.
Do you find this amazing? I do.
But this apparent name identity correspondence phenomenon is not at all limited to Einstein's name. I have also found it applies to other names: George GamowJerusalemChretienChernobyl, and numerous other names of people, places and even fictional characters. My Olin Revelation website, in fact, actually provides translations--of admittedly varying degrees of apparent correspondence--for those and several hundred other names.
Of course I recognize that all of the information that I have just presented as well as that which can be found on my website concerning this phenomenon does not exactly prove the validity of the letter meanings I have found. Critics will argue, and rightly so, that the apparent accuracy of the letter meanings may simply be the result of pure chance and/or to perceptual biases akin to apophenia. For scientists to actually accept such claims concerning the meaning of letters as true, the claims need to be rigorously tested.
And that is, in fact, my hope. The claims I have made can be disproved. By randomly assigning the meanings I have identified to completely different letters and then synthesizing a set of translations that are equally convincing as those found on my website, the association between the meanings I have identified and the letters can be shown to be irrelevant.
In the conflict between science and the paranormal, science cannot always have the luxury of choosing its battles. The gauntlet has been thrown down. Now I think that it is time for science to pick it up.
A self-described computer geek with a background in computer assembly and software development, the author has long been fascinated with the historical basis behind the stories related to the Bible. While doing research related to the Noah's Ark story, the author stumbled upon the discovery of a lifetime: that the letters of the alphabet each have a set of distinct meanings associated with them and that many English words appear to have been coined based on those meanings. Following that discovery, the author established a website,http://www.olinrevelation.org, where those and other discoveries and observations have been posted. In addition to the discoveries related to the letter meanings, the Olin Revelation website also provides interesting research related to the Merovingians, the Carolingians and King Arthur.

Did Albert Einstein Ever Link Doom of Human Race to Bees? By Ruth Tan

Probably, the most common bee controversy ever associated with Albert Einstein is if he had ever predicted this: "If the bee disappears from the surface of the earth, man would have no more than four years to live"?
Perhaps why this dispute created a huge buzz was because it was rather unimaginable for Albert Einstein, who was neither an entomologist nor a beekeeper, to speculate about bees.
Nevertheless, we all would miss the most important lesson in this hoo-ha if our minds are fixed on verifying the authenticity of the quote. The unnerving question is "How true is this statement?" Isn't it? We can brag relentlessly about our knowledge on the advancement of science and technology today, but how much do we really know about the world we live? Have we blatantly and foolishly taken nature for granted?
Sometime in 2007, the sudden, mysterious disappearance of honeybees in the United States, Europe and Brazil was a reminder of the quote attributed to Albert Einstein, and a wake-up call for mankind. Beekeepers lost a bulk of their hives and suffered significant losses in honey production, and up till now are still stumbling over the understanding of this so-called "colony collapse disorder" syndrome and its cause. No one could explain why the bees became disoriented and failed to return to their hives!
We are told that the honey bee is totally responsible for the pollination of over 90 fruit and vegetable crops worldwide, so it would be devastating if we were to lose a majority or all of our honey bee pollinators for these crops. The bee is a fragile part of our system and an important indicator of our out of balance world. Their weird disappearing act has far-reaching implications for our agricultural food supply and is definitely not an issue to be overseen.
Until now, some of the possible causes of this strange phenomenon postulated by scientists include:
o Global warming accelerates the growth rates of pathogens such as the mites, viruses and fungi that affect the health of bee colonies. The unusual hot-cold weather fluctuations wreak havoc on bee populations which are accustomed to consistent seasonal weather patterns.
o Increasing use of chemical pesticides and herbicides, which honeybees ingest during their daily pollination rounds have weakened or killed them.
o Increase in atmospheric electromagnetic radiation as a result of growing numbers of cell phones and wireless communication towers. Cell phone radiation interferes with bees' ability to navigate through the air.
Ultimately, whether Albert Einstein did ever discuss about the bees becomes an irrelevant concern in the light of a much graver question, "What should we do to encourage the return of the bees?"
R. Tan is the owner of the website http://www.benefits-of-honey.com which is a rich honey resource community specially built for all the honey lovers and fans in this world. She has packed this website with a wide range of quality contents on honey based on her knowledge and experience with honey, so as to promote its invaluable benefits which she believes could bring many positive spin-offs in everyone's daily life.

Albert Einstein and Isaac Newton By Shayne Provendido

Many people would remember Albert Einstein as one of the major contributors in making first the destructive atomic bomb. His equations E=mc² has caused the death of many innocent lives. But let's know him even better not as a scientist who has contributed a lot to science rather as a simple and ordinary man
The great scientist Albert Einstein was born in Ulm, Wurttemberg, Germany on March 14, 1879. His mother was Pauline Einstein and his father was Hermann Einstein. His family was a Jewish however they were not observant of its religious practices. Instead he attended in a Catholic elementary school; he was a top student then. When he reached the age of ten he was to science, mathematics and philosophy books. He loves classical music and playing violin. Even at a young age, Einstein showed much curiosity about different things. He was self-sufficient, intellectual and thoughtful.
Albert Einstein got his first job as a patent clerk at the Federal Office for Intellectual Property. In 1909 he became Professor Extraordinary at Zurich, in 1911 Professor of Theoretical Physics at Prague. He also became a staff in the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey in 1933. He accepted the position for life, working there until his last days on earth. After the World War II, Einstein was even more famous. He was considered to be one of the most leading figures and he was offered to be the President of the State of Israel. Knowing what he had caused the world, he declined the offer.
Einstein marriage to Mileva Maric was considered a personal and intellectual partnership. They had two wonderful sons, Hans Albert Einstein and Eduard Einstein.
In his life, Albert Einstein has given and achieved so much. We can say that truly he has lived a full life. He died at the age of 76 in Princeton, New Jersey.
Another remarkable scientist is Sir Isaac Newton. Get to learn about his life and education.
Sir Isaac Newton was born as a premature baby at Woolsthorpe, Lincolnshire on December 25, 1642. His father had died three months after he was born. At the age of three, his mother got married again with a ministry and he was left in the care of his old grandmother. Newton is believed by some researchers to have suffered from Asperger's Syndrome, a form of autism.
At the age of 18, he entered Cambridge University in 1661 since he was not interested in their family farm. At the university, he was elected Fellow of Trinity College in 1667 and Lucasian Professor of Mathematics in 1669. He was also was elected Member of Parliament for the University of Cambridge to the Convention Parliament of 1689, and sat again in 1701-1702. After he graduated, he went back to their family farm. It was believed that most of his important discoveries were made during 1669-1701. He was elected as President at the Royal Society from 1703 until his died at the age of 85.
He also became a member of the Parliament in England until 1701. Newton then wrote some religious tracts about the interpretation of the Bible. He also became the warden of Royal Mint in1696. Newton has countless contributions in optics, math and science as well as in physics. .
He spent his last decades his major works, polishing his studies of ancient history, defending himself against critics and carrying out his official duties. He died on March 20, 1727 at Kensington, England and his remains was laid in Westminster Abbey,

Top 5 Albert Einstein Quotes By Wadzanai Nenzou

Albert Einstein was a philosopher, theoretical physicist and one of the greatest intellectual minds of all time. Considered a genius by most it is surprising that he did not do well in school, in fact, he felt that the spirit of learning and creativity were smothered by the act of mere rote learning. This was but one of his famous thoughts on life and living that have forever been immortalized. If you would like to delve deeper into the mind of Albert Einstein here are five of his most memorable quotes and possible meanings.
"Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything."
It is impossible to aim for a goal and not fall short every now and again. People as a whole prefer to avoid failure and mistakes, they are uncomfortable and can make you doubt. Einstein was trying to show that failure or a mistake was not something to avoid but something to be proud of, if you have faltered in some way take heart, at least you were attempting something when you did!
"Sometimes one pays the most for things they receive for free."
Everyone loves receiving things for free such as gifts, love or opportunity but you should be careful of some "free" items as they may have long strings attached. You have likely been on the receiving end of one of these so-called gifts, the type of item or favor that you simply know you will have to repay. Without saying a word, some friends will place a demand on your time, efforts or a future gift with their own giving. It is this type of free item that you may pay dearly for in the future. This concept could apply to those who marry or befriend a person simply because of their financial statement, marry for money and you will earn every penny is the old adage.
"We cannot solve problems by using the same kind of thinking that created them."
This famous quote is quite similar to another Einstein quote, Insanity: Doing the same thing repeatedly and yet expecting a different result. These are both simple yet powerful quotes that force you to assess your thought processes, particularly when you are in a pickle. When you understand that, you will have to address your problems with a different pattern of thinking you will go a lot further toward solving said problems.
"Before God we are all equally wise, and equally foolish."
Albert Einstein never claimed to be deeply religious; however, he did have a keen grasp on spiritual principles. When he said that before God all were equally wise and foolish he pointed to the fact that men and women should not think quite so highly of themselves. Again, he was pointing out just how important perspective is to everyday life and indeed true happiness. It is fine to be proud of yourself and your accomplishments but remember you are just as prone to foolish pursuits as you are wise.
"He, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed."
How many people could probably find themselves in this quote? It is easy to be wrapped up in the mundane nature of everyday life and miss the truly awesomeness that surrounds you. What a difference it could make in life to take a few moments and wonder at the sunrise, sunset, new birth or springtime. Even the wonders of winter are something to be appreciated, the idea that life is lying dormant in leafless trees patiently awaiting the sun and fresh breath of spring is truly awe inspiring. When you can see the magnificence, that is the world and your fellow human beings life will never lose its color and joy.
The above quotes make me think and look at life in a different light. Albert Einstein was not only a man of great accomplishments but also a man of wise words.

Albert Einstein Biography By Ryan Dowd

Albert Einstein was born on the 14th of March, 1879, and died on the 17th of April, 1955. During that time he changed the way the world thinks. Few names are quite as famous as Einstein's in the world of science and his contributions are taught in schools alongside the likes of Galileo and Hippocrates. This is quite an honor for a man only 55 years gone from this world, and makes the life of Albert Einstein of great interest.
Albert was born in Germany to a family of non-observant Jews. He was a brilliant mind from the start, and always curious about the way the world worked around him. A poor medical student was his tutor for six years during his late childhood and early teen years, and enthusiastically taught him everything he could about the many educational pursuits young Albert was interested in.
After having dropped out of secondary school after clashing with his father about becoming an electrical engineer, which he thought did not allow for enough creative thinking, Albert attempted to enter a university. Though he got great marks in math and science he failed the exam as a whole and his family paid for him to finish secondary school at another institute.
To avoid German military service in the First World War Einstein renounced his German citizenship in 1917 and moved to Switzerland to pursue a diploma in math and science. He met his future wife there, the only female student in the program out of six. A child was born to the couple out of wedlock in 1902, but her existence and future are unknown after 1903.
In 1903, Einstein married his first wife, Mileva Maric. In 1904 and 1910 they had two sons, and then separated in 1914. They divorced in 1919. Then in 1919 he married Elsa Lowenthal, a woman who was his first cousin on one side and second cousin on the other. In 1933 they emigrated to the United States, and by the end of 1936 Elsa had died of heart problems.
Having moved back to Germany after separating from his first wife Einstein was forced to flee for his life in 1933 as the Nazis took over the country. He received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921, but his Jewish background made him undesirable to the Nazis. He was only one of fourteen Nobel laureates and 26 out of 60 theoretical physics professors in the entire country that were forced to do so. He did so with a $5,000 bounty on his head.
In 1939 Einstein spoke out in favor of the allies building a nuclear bomb. He said that he only did so because he felt that there was significant risk that the Germans would resort to such devices, and later expressed regret at having done so. In 1940 he became an American citizen and took a professorship at Princeton.
Einstein worked in theoretical physics during his entire academic career. Although he is best known for work on relativity that earned him the distinction of a Nobel Prize, he also worked on such fundamental parts of our scientific understanding as photons (the particles that light is made up of) and thermodynamics. His scientific achievements were, as all great achievements are, initially viewed with skepticism. But many important experts in the field supported him, and many of his theories became widely accepted with time.
Albert Einstein died on April 17th of 1955 of a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. Internal bleeding caused his death. He was offered surgery to perhaps correct the problem, but he stated that he thought prolonging life artificially was 'tasteless' and that it was his time to go.
By necessity, any Albert Einstein biography that is less than a hundred pages long only touches on a few of the most important events in the great man's life. But even in brief coverage, it is easy to see how a boy who constantly asked how the world worked managed to figure out some of science's most important principles. Perhaps we should all ask more questions.

Albert Einstein Quotes - How These 3 Albert Einstein Quotes Can Accelerate Your Success By Michael Lee

Albert Einstein has always been viewed as an eccentric. However, his personal oddities did not, in any way, undermine his brilliance. Despite the way he looked, he is considered one of the most groundbreaking scientists of all time.
For anyone struggling to find success in his or her own field, these Albert Einstein quotes can inspire you to fulfill your dreams.
Einstein has been responsible for some of the most amazing breakthroughs ever discovered. His words would always ring true, even after his death. For inspiring Albert Einstein quotes, read on!
Albert Einstein Quote # 1: "The only real valuable thing is intuition."
Intuition cannot be bought. It is inherent in each one of us and can only be honed through experience. Unfortunately, not a lot of people listen to their intuition. And perhaps even a larger number don't even believe they have one.
But Einstein, a man of science, believes in a person's gut feel. When torn between two decisions, it is important to listen to that nagging feeling inside of you.
Intuition has saved a lot of people from danger. And if yours is nudging you to go a certain direction, there's no harm in trying that out, right?
Albert Einstein Quote # 2: "We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them."
As unusual as this success quote sounds, it does tell the truth. Stubborn people, for example, get themselves stuck in a situation by not listening to the advice of others.
Instead of remaining stubborn all throughout the ordeal, why not take someone's word for a change and try a different approach?
Stubbornness will not get you anywhere. Einstein recognizes the importance of flexibility. If you want to achieve success, you'll need to adopt that same flexibility as well.
Albert Einstein Quote # 3: "Imagination is more important than knowledge."
This is one of my favorite inspirational quotes. After all, you cannot always live life by the book. You'll have to be as creative as you can to make every day of your life more meaningful.
Life's problems cannot always be solved by equations either. Sometimes, it takes a touch of creativity to help you get to the bottom of things.
Einstein was truly a man who had a lot to share. With this set of Albert Einstein quotes, I hope you feel a renewed drive to succeed in whatever field you choose.

What Did Albert Einstein Invent? By Wadzanai Nenzou

Albert Einstein without question remains a significant part of history. Throughout the course of his lifetime, he contributed to several breakthroughs and inventions. Although many are documented, surely there are a few missed at some point. In any case, here is a review of some of the inventions notable to Albert Einstein's life.
A Brief History
Albert Einstein continues to exist as one of the greatest physicists ever known. The man of supreme scientific intelligence arrived into this world on March 14, 1879 in Germany. Ultimately, he advanced the world's way of thinking in regards to the physical world.
Six weeks following his birth, his family left Württemberg for Munich. This became the location where he started his early academics. His father, Hermann Einstein worked as an engineer and salesperson. When he was five, his father gave him a compass. Many attribute this time in his life as the starting point for his success as an adult. His father's gift led to an early fascination with trying to discover why the compass always pointed north.
Albert Einstein attended the University of Zurich, receiving his doctorate in 1905. This followed a presentation on his theoretical dissertation, which introduced a novel type of calculation for determining the size of molecules. The same year also became his most successful year with making discoveries.
Albert Einstein's Inventions
Most of Einstein's inventions were rather discoveries and theories. Regardless, his accomplishments throughout history are many. In general, most of his contributions were to the four major areas of science. These areas are known as energy, gravity, light, and time.
Brownian Motion
The Brownian motion is among the first of Albert Einstein's contributions. Originally, in 1827 the botanist Robert Brown discovered floating plant spores in motion under a microscope. From this, he postulated that the random movement related to molecules hitting the spores. However, Einstein became the first to offer statistical predictions in support of the random distribution and the motion of particles in fluid. Later experiments confirmed his theory.
Special Theory of Relativity
Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity provided one of the first dependable explanations on the interaction of radiation and matter when observed concurrently by bystanders moving at a consistent speed and the bystanders at standstill. He based this theory according to the principle of relativity. From this, he derived the correct description of physical events within various inertial frames of reference. This lead to his creating the famous formula E=MC².
Einstein's inventions after 1905
1911 - Why Is the Sky Blue?
Einstein determined this in 1911 by determining the detailed formulas calculations for light dispersion from molecules. Later this was confirmed by the experiment "Why Is the Sky Blue?"
1916 - General Theory of Relativity
In 1916, Einstein expanded on his special theory of relativity. In turn, this resulted in the general theory of relativity. By doing this, it allowed for the theories application across uniform and non-uniform systems of motion. Ultimately, the general theory is concerned with the large-scale affects of gravitation.
Essentially, the theory determines the equivalence of inertial and gravitational mass. It further allows for a deeper understanding on a gravitational field forms by curvatures produced in space-time time material bodies, which is further determined by its curvature. Ultimately, it gives a deeper understanding into the meaning of gravity.
1921 - Law of Photoelectric effect
He discovered this law through his general theory of relativity.
1924 - Bose-Einstein Condensate
The Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) has to do with the phase of matter relating to solid gas, liquid, and plasma. This resulted when the 1924 Indian physicist Satyendra Nath Bose sent a paper to Einstein on the Pank Law from which Einstein generalized the theory to an ideal gas of identical atoms or molecules in which the numbers of particles are conserved. Within the same year, he predicted that at extremely low temperatures the particles would lock together or overlap in the lowest quantum state of the system, resulting in the Bose Einstein statistics.
1926 - Einstein Refrigerator
The refrigerator he invented in 1926 worked as an absorption refrigerator and required no moving parts or electricity to operate. All it required was heat to work. Therefore, it only needed something such as a small gas burner. His former student jointly helped with his invention of the refrigerator.
Overall, Albert Einstein lived as one of the most acclaimed physicists of our time. Ultimately, he lived as a great thinker, discoverer, and inventor. The above are just a handful of how many theories and inventions he created.

1. There's Something About Einstein
Bobby and Peter Farrelly, the brother writing-directing duo responsible for the comedy hits, "There's Something About Mary" and "Dumb and Dumber" are fans of the mad genius just like everybody else. To dazzle the crowds, Bobby Farrelly has taught his three-year-old son a few tricks to flaunt his own future genius. He's taught him 10 answers to some very advanced questions for a tot of his age, one of which is, "Who came up with the theory for E=MC2?" Playing the crowd with contemplation on his face, his son toes the ground with his sneaker and finally and timely answers, "Albert Einstein". Now that is genius.
2. Einstein's Brain
By chance a man named Thomas Harvey performed the autopsy on Einstein in 1955 shortly after the genius passed away. He wasn't scheduled to do so, the guy that was, wasn't able to make it. So, Mr. Harvey got the honors of handling Albert's most private matters, including his priceless grey matter. Without proper permission to do so, although Thomas attests to being given the nod of okay from an Einstein relative, Mr. Harvey pulled a modern day Robin Hood and snatched the scientist's brain. For decades he kept it in a secret location, dishing out pieces of it to researchers around the world. Mr. Harvey meant well, he intended to do elaborate research on the brain himself and have the findings published, but ultimately that endeavor never came to fruition.
3. Brainwash
The brain had seen better days, transformed from the greatest mind of a modern time to chicken-colored chunks floating in a smelly, yellow, formaldehyde broth, diced into varying bits and encased in Tupperware. A great deal of the time, the brain was hidden in a cookie jar at Mr. Harvey's girlfriend's house. Then one day, willing to make amends with the Einstein family, Mr. Harvey decided to return the long lost brain to Einstein's granddaughter, Evelyn in San Francisco.
4. Driving Mr. Albert
Enter journalist Paterniti hailing from Portland, Maine. Having written an article on Mr. Harvey and the missing brain, Paterniti's friendship with Harvey grew to the point where he was willing to drive Harvey and the brain from New Jersey to California, after all, it's not the destination, but the journey that counts. The unlikely trio - a freelance writer, an elderly pathologist and the Albert Einstein sans life and limb - traversed America in a borrowed Buick Skylark. Stopping here and there, visiting old friends of the two living members of the convoy. From an adobe ranch house south of Santa Fe, New Mexico to stay with old friends of Paterniti to the most unusual detour of the journey, to see William S. Burrough's in Lawrence, Kansas. As it turned out, Mr. Harvey and Mr. Burrough's knew one another and so, Einstein's brain had dinner with the author of "Naked Lunch".
5. IQ
The genius of Einstein was not only in his scientific theories, but also in his willingness for extreme self-promotion. Much of his early fame can be attributed to the fact that he went on a whirlwind world tour to promote his discoveries, dining with the rich and famous and powerful the world over. Gaining global headlines and firmly establishing the scientist as a superstar. Today, scientists like Brian Greene and Michio Kaku can only dream of such fanfare surrounding their groundbreaking work in search of the elusive Unifying Theory which Einstein himself spent his final days contemplating, to no avail.
6. From E=MC2 To The X-Files
Many actors have portrayed the wiry-haired genius on the silver screen. Most notably was Walter Matthau's witty turn as the mad scientist in the 1994 romantic comedy, "IQ". Australian comedian, Yahoo Serious took a hare-brained stab at in the farcical, "Young Einstein" in 1988. Even Robert Downey Jr. has portrayed him in the 1990 film, "That's Adequate". We here at T-Shirt King have voted and would enjoy seeing David Duchovny portray Mr. Einstein during his earlier years. Go figure.
7. Albert Einstein Institution
Having developed the means that led to creation of the world's most destructive weapon, The Albert Einstein Institution has been striving for new ways of nonviolent conflict resolution, just like Mr. Einstein himself endeavored to do while he was alive. The institution is committed to defending democratic freedoms and institutions - opposing oppression, dictatorship and genocide - reducing reliance on violence as an instrument of policy. For our sakes, it's too bad Mr. Einstein isn't still around these days.
8. Young Einstein
Einstein's popularity is legendary, you would be hard pressed to find anyone on the planet that had not heard of him. His very name is equated with genius. Despite his amazing feats later in his life, young Einstein didn't fair so well in the eyes of those around him. He was a horrible student, which he attributes to boredom, his teachers attribute it to an abrasive ego. His parents had concerns for him as well, because he couldn't speak fluently until his ninth birthday, leading his parents to suspect that he might be mentally challenged. Yeesh, what's a genius to do?
