Dr. Gary S Berger Co-Author of Einstein: The Man And His Mind, Announces Facebook Live Event To Commemorate the Centennial Of Einstein’s Controversial Nobel Prize Lecture

Published on July 7, 2023

July 7, 2023 – Chapel Hill, NC – Dr. Gary S Berger, author of The Reader Views Grand Prize Award-winning book, EINSTEIN: The Man And His Mind, announces that he will participate in a livestream Facebook Event to commemorate the Centennial of Einstein’s Nobel lecture presented on July 11, 1923.

Dr. Berger and other book contributors will discuss how Einstein broke two Nobel traditions with his lecture, Fundamental Ideas and Problems of the Theory of Relativity. But then, the entire history of Einstein’s Nobel Prize was unusual.

For over a decade, The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences repeatedly rejected Einstein and, specifically, his greatest contribution to science─the theory of relativity─for a Nobel prize. In 1921, the debate about Einstein was so thorny for the Nobel Committee for Physics that no award was given that year. The following year, Einstein received the unused 1921 prize — pointedly, though, not for relativity but for discovering the law of the photoelectric effect. The award citation had an unusual disclaimer that excluded relativity as the reason for the award. Einstein’s Nobel diploma is unique in stating what the prize was not awarded for.

Einstein did not attend the 1922 Nobel ceremony to receive his award, choosing instead to embark on a prescheduled visit abroad. Although he intended to present his Nobel lecture at the 1923 award ceremony in Stockholm, that was not to be either.

In March 1923, the Committee for Physics Chairman wrote to Einstein suggesting that instead of waiting until December to deliver his Nobel lecture to the Swedish Academy, he address the Scandinavian Society of Science in Gothenburg in July on the 300th anniversary of the city’s founding.

As with everything concerning his Nobel award, Einstein’s lecture became a source of controversy. His detractors objected to it being accepted as an official Nobel lecture since it hadn’t been delivered in Stockholm and was not about the award topic. But, Arrhenius had submitted the lecture manuscript for inclusion in the Nobel Foundation’s yearbook, Les Prix Nobel. Although questioning its validity, the Swedish Academy allowed it to remain in the publication.

Einstein’s lecture on relativity presented in Gothenburg has this footnote in the later English translation (but not the original German version): “The Lecture was not delivered on the occasion of the Nobel Prize award and did not, therefore, concern the discovery of the photoelectric effect.”

After so many contentious years, the Nobel prize meant little to Einstein besides the money he had promised his wife Mileva in their divorce agreement. And, in later years, when Einstein listed his most significant achievements and honors, the Nobel prize was conspicuously absent.

Berger notes, “After decades of collecting rare Einstein items and then sharing them as full-page high-quality images in EINSTEIN: The Man and His Mind, I felt it was important to recall the unusual history at the centennial of his so-called Nobel lecture.”

The Facebook Live streaming event will occur on July 11, 2023, at 11 am EDT here: https://www.facebook.com/events/1344566559738665.

Joining Dr. Berger on the live stream will be co-author Michael DiRuggiero and Hanoch Gutfreund, who wrote the Foreword.  

Gary S. Berger is a physician who has always been fascinated by Albert Einstein and how he could perceive what nobody had before about physical reality. During the past 25 years, he’s assembled perhaps the world’s largest private collection of original Einstein materials.

Michael DiRuggiero is a world-class rare book dealer specializing in the history of science with particular emphasis on material relating to Albert Einstein.

Hanoch Gutfreund is the academic director of the Einstein Archives at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He has written several books about Einstein and relativity.

Yoseph Assefa, Loan Officer with American Financing, Interviewed on the Elite Real Estate Leaders Podcast

Published on October 2, 2023

Yoseph Assefa discusses navigating the mortgage industry. 

Listen to the interview on the Business Innovators Radio Network: https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/interview-with-yoseph-assefa-loan-officer-with-american-financing/

Yoseph Assefa grew up in a family that prioritized advancement and security, even beyond their careers in education. This upbringing influenced Yoseph, leading him to pursue various entrepreneurial endeavors after college. Yoseph indicates his involvement in multiple industries, highlighting his background in entrepreneurship.

During this episode, Yoseph Assefa emphasizes the significance of trust and relationships in the mortgage and real estate business. He mentions that all his previous connections were built on trust and respect, which allowed his network to perceive him differently and provide opportunities to assist with real estate decisions. Yoseph Assefa acknowledges the challenges faced by the mortgage industry, particularly in the past 12 to 18 months.

The importance of educating clients and ensuring their understanding of the mortgage process is discussed. Yoseph Assefa emphasizes that a mortgage can have a detrimental impact on someone’s financial future if not handled correctly, referring to it as a “death grip.” He believes in taking a special approach to educate and guide clients toward making informed decisions to avoid such consequences. This approach is emphasized as crucial from the initial meeting or the closing table.

Yoseph Assefa also highlights the significance of providing accurate and trustworthy information to the community. He acknowledges the overwhelming amount of information available and stresses the need for clients to have someone they can trust for reliable advice and guidance. Assefa believes that the mortgage industry is complex, especially for newcomers, and clients require straightforward answers that are not influenced by personal interests.

Furthermore, Yoseph Assefa discusses the benefits of building long-term relationships and prioritizing the client’s comfort level, not only for the customer but also for real estate agents. Providing a clear monthly payment range, helps agents understand the client’s budget and prevents exceeding it during the home-buying process. This open communication and transparency with agents contribute to a smoother experience for all parties involved.

Yoseph shared: One of the current challenges that we’re facing in addition to historically high interest rates, is misinformation. A lot of people either don’t make the right decision or don’t make a decision at all because of bad information they’re receiving from the internet. It’s probably those short clips online that don’t give you the context of what they’re talking about. There’s just so much bad information out there.”

Frank Tobin, Executive Chairman of GomSpace North America, Discusses Partnering for Faster and More Assured Mission Success on The Space Industry Podcast

Frank Tobin, Executive Chairman of GomSpace North America, Discusses Partnering for Faster and More Assured Mission Success on The Space Industry Podcast

Published on September 29, 2023

Low Earth Orbit (LEO) is becoming an increasingly difficult place to do business. In his recent appearance on The Space Industry Podcast, Frank Tobin, Executive Chairman of GomSpace North America, shares his belief that the fastest path to a successful LEO satellite deployment in this competitive environment is through collaboration.

A new race to space is happening right above our heads. But the destinations targeted today are not the Moon or Mars. Instead, entrepreneurs, nation states, and large corporations are sending small satellites into Low Earth Orbit (100 to 1,000 miles altitude) to track weather, provide broadband Internet access and telecommunications, support the Internet of Things (IoT), and perform military and security functions.

With so many potential LEO opportunities available, a gold rush mentality has driven scores of entrepreneurs and hundreds of millions of dollars of capital into the sector in recent years. Now, as the market begins to mature, investors are becoming more focused on rapid paths to profitability and less upon innovative technologies.

“The capital markets are no longer interested in funding science projects,” stated Frank Tobin, Executive Chairman of GomSpace North America on The Space Industry Podcast. “They are looking for business models that can be ramped up quickly and achieve cash flow positive status in a reasonable period of time.”

“This is why it’s critical that every company or agency planning a satellite mission focuses on their core technological competencies,” Tobin continues, “And outsources to flight-proven partners the nuts and bolts of building, launching, and managing one – or a constellation of – satellites. The sooner you can demonstrate in-orbit experience, the less equity you will have to give up in exchange for capital. Partnering accelerates that process.”

Frank Tobin’s appearance on The Space Industry Podcast is the first in a series of such interviews he will be granting in the coming weeks and months to communicate his message of the power of partnering in space.
