About the break up

Ok, so most of you know, nabila and I broke up last week. And as you probably already know, I'm not going to go into detail about it. I will copy what my SL profile currently says and leave it at that. Speaking of SL, lots of people have been asking me what I'm going to do about it. The honest answer is, I don't know. Right now I'm still in SL and taking things one day at a time. I have spent most of my time last week in the open beta for Champions Online. But that's closed now.

Copy of my SL profile below.
Just got out of a relationship with the one that was THE ONE. Though it was for her own good, she of course does not see it that way. I knew I was not the right one for her, and because I love her so much, I decided the best thing to do was to let her free to find her real right one.

Macedon King's Funeral (RP Event)

Before you get worried I believe this was only an RP event. I wanted to ask one of my friends there yesterday to make sure but he was pretty busy. Now, as far as I understand it, the player who used to play the King of Macedon has not logged in for a long time now. And so his character has been written as having passed away. This was not a memorial for a real life passing. If I find out otherwise I will of course correct this information.

My friends from my two favorite ancient times role playing places in SL were in attendance. The Upper Kingdom Egypt role players, and of course the people from the Macedon sim. I wish we could have met under happier circumstances though. Dirjha Summers took a few snapshots of the event and was kind enough to allow me to post them here. And so did my nabila. As you may know my computer is not that reliable once an area has more then 4 people. And if there are a couple of scripts running close by, forget about it.

String Theory

Over the weekend other then leveling up on CoV I was looking for something entertaining to watch to keep it from being too boring. I decided to look for the documentary I had seen on string theory a few years ago. Instead I found another tv show that takes on string theory. No it has nothing to do with music or stringed instruments lol. I'll try and keep this short. Basically when you take Einstein's general theory of relativity, and quantum mechanics, you find that they do not go well together. Even though both work well separately, you just can't combine them. So string theory is an attempt to do just that. Sadly this show wasn't the one I was trying to find. This one didn't do as a good a job going into the details. I'll keep searching for the other one though and when I find it I'll link to it here. Meanwhile if you would care to discuss string theory here please feel free.

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.

Done transfering

And thus ends the transferring of the things from flickr. So coming up next ... NEW THINGS.

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.

Snapshot_001

Uploaded on June 24, 2009
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.

Where Cookies Really Come From - by Eren Padar

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

Snapshot_006

Uploaded on May 30, 2009
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".
