A Unified Theory of Time Travel

Albert Einstein’s hypothesis of general relativity recommends that time travel to the past is conceivable by means of turning wormholes and/or dark gaps. The real specialized reasonableness of really doing such adventures need not concern us since this article is in the domain of the idea test. Presently Stephen Hawking says time travel to the past is impractical on the grounds that he recommends that there is such an unbelievable marvel as a yet unfamiliar Chronology Protection Conjecture that keeps this and therefore makes the world safe for history specialists. I’ve concocted a bound together hypothesis of time travel into the past that fuses Einstein’s general hypothesis of relativity; Hawking’s Chronology Protection Conjecture, alongside other arranged bits like parallel universes that are tossed in with the general mish-mash.

The first thing you need to know those, who are going to come to live in the City of Angels: it doesn`t look like the most of the cities. Los Angeles is completely deprived such concept, as a center of city. In practice it means that classic chart ” nearer to the center is more expensive and better” doesn`t work here.

Another line of quality areas can be considered as the coastal line: Venice, Marina Del Rey, Redondo Beach, Hermosa Beach, Santa Monica again, and of course the Malibu.

Burning Man and dust storms in Black Rock City

I was on the Burning Man!
We loaded up our new recreational vehicle with food, clothing and other things and went on the night of Friday to Saturday. We came to the desert around 7 am and got into an incredible dust storm – in 2 steps can not see anything! For 4 hours we moving through the dust. We saw how one of plastic toilets was blown off by the wind.

On the entrance our tickets have been checked and our car have been inspected inside. After that we got early arrival wristbands and here we are in Black Rock City. On the way to the place of our camp, in the outer circle in the dust in front of us we saw 3 police cars with flashing lights. We saw one policeman with a dog and a lot of cops around the car with a trailer and doomed-looking woman was sitting in the dust around … Later, in the local newspaper, I read that Burning Man was a training camp for the police, sheriffs and rangers of Nevada.

California Legacy book series

Newly available from the California Legacy series:

Mark Twain’s San Francisco, edited with introduction by Bernard Taper. From earthquakes, police scandals, and tantalizing silver mine bonanzas to elegant ladies blowing their noses in “exquisitely modulated tones” and seals “writhing and squirming like exaggerated maggots” below the Cliff House, Mark Twain has left us a vision of San Francisco that is at once fascinating and hilariously familiar.

California Poetry From the Gold Rush to the Present, edited by Dana Gioia, Chryss Yost, and Jack Hicks. A recent San Francisco Chronicle review calls this volume “an instantly indispensible new anthology from the California Legacy Series.”

Imagine what we’d think of California if Toshio Mori had never written his gentle short stories about life in Oakland’s “Lil’ Yokohama”; if Walter Nordhoff had never hidden behind his alter-ego Senor Don Juan Obrigon to tell the tale of The Journey of the Flame; if Bayard Taylor had never transformed his gold rush journalism into the compelling chronicle Eldorado. It’s pretty easy to do, of course, since all of these essential works of Californiana have long been out of print. No wonder East Coast elites like Woody Allen think there’s no culture here.
