Albert Einstein is known all over the world as a brilliant theoretical physicist and the founder of the theory of relativity. He is perhaps the greatest scientist of the 20th century. Some of his ideas made possible the atomic bomb, as well as television and other inventions.

He was born in 1879 in a small German town. The Einstein family soon moved to Munich, where Albert went to school. Neither his parents, nor his school teachers thought much of his mental abilities. His uncle often joked: "Not everybody is born to become a professor." In 1895 Albert failed the entrance examination to a technical college in Zurich. A year later, however, he managed to pass the exam and entered the college.
After graduating from the college, Einstein started to work at the Swiss Patent Office in Bern.
In 1905 he wrote a short article in a science magazine. This was his 'Special Theory of Relativity', which gave the world the most famous equation relating mass and energy (E = me2), the basis of atomic energy.
Water polo was invented in the second half of the XIX century in the UK by William Wilson. Prototype of the game was rugby. Early versions of the game allowed the use of force in the fight for the ball, keeping the opponent under the water for possession of the ball. The goalkeeper was outside the field, and tried to prevent the opponent's attempts to put the ball on the pier. The game acquired a modern form in the 1880s. Water polo is played in many countries of the world. The game is especially popular in Hungary and the former Yugoslavia. Water polo is one of the oldest Olympic sports. It was first included in the program of the Olympic Games in 1900. Women's water polo entered the Olympic program in 2000 after the political protests of the Australian women's team. In the men's water polo, the famous Hungarian Dejeu Dyarmati won five Olympic medals (gold in 1952, 1956, 1964, silver in 1948, bronze in 1960), setting as yet no one beaten record. The first Soviet water polo player who came to the Water Sports Hall of Fame (located in the American city of Fort Lauderdale near Miami) was Alexei Barkalov, followed by Alexander Kabanov, Alexander Dolgushin and Eugene Sharonov.
