Happy Tuesday everyone.

An editorial review of A Clockwork Universe: URUT (Unified Rotating Universe Theory)

Reviewed by Asher Syed

E. Hughes’s A Clockwork Universe presents Unified Rotating Universe Theory as a cosmological model built around rotation as the organizing principle of physical reality. Hughes begins by rejecting space as an independent container, defining it instead as distance created after matter gives location meaning. From that starting point, URUT imagines the universe as a rotating disc whose larger motion guides galaxies while galaxies guide the systems inside them. The book then turns to the proto-universe, described as an ultra-hypermassive star whose instability creates entropy before expansion gives space its first definition. Hughes continues from gravitational motion into cosmic observation before reaching quantum reality and the nature of time across its chapters, presenting one argument that motion is the key to how the universe behaves.

E. Hughes’s A Clockwork Universe presents the universe as a vast working clock, with rotation setting the movement of everything within it across every scale. Hughes teaches the belief that rotation links several questions about the universe, which is timely as readers increasingly question how scientific explanations are formed. Hughes writes in a friendly, accessible way, using everyday pictures to explain bigger ideas. Hughes is clearly knowledgeable in everything presented, but the entire book is also exhaustively researched. Hughes draws on published studies and philosophical writing, like Gödel on the rotating universe discussion, and Eddington’s arrow of time supporting the argument. Readers who are well-versed as well as non-specialists will find this a brilliant way to consider how the universe moves, and how time works.

This is how many Chinese words I've spoken since January. Fluent Chinese is about 1,000 words. I know 485 words in Chinese. So I'm partly there. I can hold a full conversation but I dont know everything yet.

The premature kitten we were nursing back to life died last night. RIP Pepper. You were only with us for 3 days but we will remember you always. My daughter was still cradling him for an entire hour after he died. We were extremely sad. We had given him around the clock care, joked about his future. A 1 day old kitten is 75 to 90 grams in weight. He was only 57 grams. We thought we were going to beat the odds, and he would survive. The kitten was abandoned by his mother.

We rescued a premature kitten today. The other 2 kittens from the feral cat passed away. This one is string. I'm really rooting for her.

Treasure your health. If you don't have that, you have nothing else. It doesn't matter if you are successful, wealthy, surrounded by love. You can't fully enjoy life without your health. It places a fog of worry in your life.

My health this year has not been great at all. I spent months on bed rest in excruciating body pain. I was in so much pain for several months of the year, I did not have a waking or a moment of sleep without physical pain. It even hurt to sleep. I saw a neurologist and she diagnosed me with Polymyalgia rheumatica. But even she is doubtful of the diagnosis. None of the symptoms matched. the pain for this illness does not match mine.

Weight gain follows when you are on bed rest, and then a swollen leg. My foot was humongous. But no heart issues.

It was not easy start to this year. I am just starting to come out of the fog of pain and started to feel better and was able to go out last month. But even just walking from the car to get inside of the building was a challenge. But I did it. Now I am feeling more like myself as we move further into the year. The pain just sort of went away on its own. I am not 100%, I am operating at about 75%. There's still some pain but not as critical as it was a month or two ago. A doctor friend of mine, an author I know who has been an ER doctor for 60 years, told me that doctors often don't like challenging patients. They just want to do their job and go home. And this is true. I was told at one point some years ago that my health situation is too complex. I have a book called The Prescription for Nutritional Healing. It addresses nearly every medical condition. It helps to start learning how to heal and how to help yourself, and also how to protect your health before medical issues arise when you are older.

I never share my events publicly. This is just a snippet. Sometimes we are so into the event, we forget to record. This one was from June, I believe. I have another from April if I can find it.
