...think they're just fixing something inside," member Justin P. Finnegan '02 said. "It's a surprise to me, but I haven't been in the loop...
...found another possible mechanism for time travel using cosmic strings, thin strands of energy millions of light-years long, predicted by some theories of particle physics (but not yet observed in the universe). You could try to construct a cosmic-string time machine by finding a large loop of cosmic string and somehow manipulating it so it would contract rapidly under its own tension, like a rubber band. The extraordinary energy density of the string curves space-time sharply, and by flying a spaceship around the two sides of the loop as they pass each other at nearly the speed...
...back in time by one year, unfortunately, you'd need a loop containing about half the mass-energy of an entire galaxy. Worse yet, the contracting cosmic-string loop would probably trigger the formation of a rotating black hole, trapping any time-travel regions inside. You would almost certainly be torn apart by near infinite space curvature before you could travel anywhere...
...measure but would raise the danger of continuous judicial monitoring of the software industry. Possible "structural remedies" include such as breaking up the company into separate divisions or licensing the Windows software to a number of different providers; both would provide a one-time solution rather than an endless loop of litigation...
...puts Coleman in the local Irish loop. "For me it's a job certainly, but it's a lot more than that," he explains. "I do it because I enjoy myself. I constantly have an idea of what's going on in Cambridge. I know what Irish people are doing around here." Stop by The Field any day of the week and forget about cover charges. As long as you order something to drink, you're solid. Munch on one of the startlingly good appetizers as you imbibe to the live Celtic music. The 75%-25% mix of Cambridge residents...
