Einstein's view of time VS free will.

I saw a program on the net the other day, about time. This is one of those scientific/philosophical subjects that really interests me. And I started thinking about Einstein’s view and free will. So I decided I would put my question up on my blog and see what YOU think of it. I’ll also include links to the actual video in case you want to watch it as well.

So the question is:
If Einstein's view of time was correct, verses quantum physics view of time. Then does that allow for free will? If all time, past present and future, has happened or is happening all at the same "time". Did you get to choose how things happened, or are you simply living through what is/has happened and simply observing it or are you being a part of it and actually interacting with what we perceive as being the present?

And here are the links to the video.

Macedon Crown Blessing





Uploaded on Jul 12, 2009
These were taken at the lovely Crown Blessing ceremony tonight (July 12, 2009) in the Macedon sim. One of the ancient world role playing places I hang out at. After I got to hang around and party with some good friends. Since the turn out was so great, my computer wasn’t able to cope with so many people on screen at the same time. So on some of the pics you will see people in colorless clothing. Also I had to turn down my graphics settings so some things may appear blockier then they actually are.

This was taken at the Apollo Temple dedication last night in Macedon. June 23, 2009. This is one of the earliest photos I had taken while the priests and the Oracle were setting things up. Somehow show UI was checked, so all the other shots I have are covered with text.

I think this photo, taken by Eren Padar in SL speaks for itself. Yes, uploaded with permission.

This was taken at the glorious ceremony of the coronation of the new Pharaoh in the Upper Kingdoms sim. I was honored to be among those in the crowd who got to witness this historic event.

ElvenHearth Pie in the sky build (PG Area)

Uploaded on May 15, 2009
If you are a fan of creative builds, head over to the Elven lands at ElvenHearth. If you go to the main entry to the sim, there is an object to click on to get a tour note card, scroll to the bottom of that note card and get the location to the Pie in the Sky. It’s a skybox area made out of FOOD! It’s looks small in the picture above because I pulled the camera back to capture the entire area but there is enough room there to have a HUGE party for full grown avatars.

Moving from flickr

Some people were having trouble seeing the pictures I had put on flickr. So I'm moving them over here. The next couple of posts will simply be those pictures along with original date and their description.

Hello World

So basically this is just a test post. You get a cookie if you know what I'm referencing with "Hello World".
Hint: Think geek.
