Lee: Genius Award According to the Merriam Webster Dictionary (2013), “A genius is a person with extraordinary intellectual power, especially as manifested in creative activity.” Stan Lee may not have the amount of intelligence or inventions as Albert Einstein or Benjamin Franklin, but he is a genius in his own in way.

The theory of atoms and atomic history have been changing throughout history. The atomic theory has had many factors changed and restated to go along with the more recent discoveries. Today, we know all atoms have electrons, protons, neutrons, and of course, the nucleus. Those are a few of the fundamental terms we use to understand the basic structure of an atom. Those are just the simple building blocks of an atom. There is also a electron cloud that is around the nucleus. It was thought to have

blink of an eye.” Humans have been attempting for centuries to make sense of and accept the concept of time. The great Albert Einstein, the most prolific physicist of the 20th century, in his Theory of Relativity proved that time was relative. In other words, time and it’s accepted concept of constant, continual progression at a fixed rate was incorrect or not an absolute. Einstein convinced himself and many others that the past, present, and future were only an illusion (Schwartz, 2003). However,
