Sunday marked the 50th anniversary of the Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities in Jerusalem and to celebrate the association is displaying the manuscript of Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity in its entirety for the first time. Nerds, delight!
The 46-page report is a handwritten explanation of Einstein’s most notable work …
The idea of having our own March Madness tournament was born from a lame villain bracket that showed up on some news aggregator some months ago.
