  1. Albert Einstein (March 14, 1879 – April 18, 1955) was a German born physicist. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest physicists of time. He formulated the theories of all relativity. In addition, he made major contributions to quantum theory and mechanics. While best known for the Theory of Relativity, he was awarded the 1921 Nobel Prize for Physics for his explanation of the photoelectric effect in 1905, and for his services to Theoretical Physics.

    2. I may be opening the proverbial can of worms here by asking, but I am curious:

      How did you, Miss Stanton, come upon this blog? I am curious partially because I didn't think anyone ever happened upon it and partially because you seem to take issue with much of the work posted by students here.

      From reading your responses, I gather that you are probably not a teacher, though I may be wrong.

      I hope you don't mind overly that I deleted most of your comments. I didn't feel like the insults were particularly necessary. And though it's unlikely that most of my students would return here, I'd rather not take the chance that they might read said comments.
