Nonsense CXCII.
Antizero, antione, antitwo, and pseudozero.
The date Wednesday, 01/01/2014 will be recorded for posterity in letters of an alloy of platinum and gold, because that day, Apprentice Mathematician Number 4 (AMN4) invented several new numbers, including the antizero and the antione, aboard the luxury yacht Science, anchored in Brindisi, where the ancient inhabitants of the sixteenth century BC (BCE) manufactured a high-quality bronze (an alloy of copper and tin).
It is likely these two inventions —the antizero and the antione— are considered in the near future, a milestone in the development of contemporary mathematics and in the history of science in the 21st century.
That day, the first one of January, two thousand fourteen, with his wife, his two daughters, his son, and all the crew, ate a Texan style roast beef, with sauces, pickles, salads and baguettes, and all of them drank toasts with red wines of the Abruzzos.
Regarding the antizero, it is a very difficult and abstract numeric concept, so it will not be explained here, since only about forty people worldwide could have a glimpse of understanding about it. It is simply indescribable. We write it symbolically: a0.
Maybe by July 2015 AMN4 deign to draft long paragraphs in order to try to explain certain approaches to understanding the antizero, to the rest of humanity, we really are a bunch of ignorant ones (Homo ignorantis tardus), although some consider our way behind species as the Homo sapiens sapiens, nothing less.
As for the antione, it is neither -1 (minus one), nor 0.1 (zero dot one), nor the imaginary number i (√ -1).
This is the antione, and is written as an inverted (turned upside down) number 1:
The Apprentice Mathematician Number 4 has yet to reveal the essence of antione because he has not patented it, but he has glimpsed what this newest number can serve for, and hopes to develop his hypothesis in a space of two years.
(I). It could be a very useful application for all living humanity and even for a portion of the deceased, by gear of normalized hypertranstemporaneity, excluding asymptotic freedom.
(II). Also, it could be exploited in the polarized targeting of energy of lightness and lowness, in strange virtual or ethereal gutters, ionized and ionizing conductive and rearranging of electromagnetic microwaves of wavelengths from ten to one centimeter, and frequencies from 3 to 30 gigahertz (GHz) at a ridiculously low cost. This could lead to the financial failure and real collapse of cell phone companies worldwide.
(III). Used in conjunction with the antizero, it could have interesting applications in the field of hyperreal mathematics and theoretical physics.
In order to create the antizero, the antione, the antitwo, the antithree, et cetera, AMN4 had to aspire for at least a week, the salty thalassoprana (from the Greek word Thalassa [sea] and the Sanskrit word prana [breath of life]) of the Ionian Sea and then direct the bow north; he borrowed some concepts of astronomy, theoretical physics, vectors, extrapolation, and complex analysis, and mentioned and intended variations and approaches toward a heterodox numbergraphy:
a0
Moreover, the great AMN4 has reported that during the second half of this year of Our Lord, 2014, he will be attempting something much more difficult: the creation of the pseudozero (ps0), for which he must devise sophisticated formulas based on topology, numerical theory, trigonometry, fractals, calculus, and sets, as well as apply the highest numbergenic abstraction.
If AMN4 manages to create the pseudozero, as his supporters expect, it will happen what has happened to certain inventions: after creation, its makers ask what can it serve for? So, it will be an early solution looking for a problem to be resolved.
Nonsense CXCIII.
Antitime.
The Apprentice Physicist Number 5 (APhN5) in a recent experimental lecture at the Chilean Easter Island (Rapa Nui) has stated that in virtue that an ideal object (an ideal concept) transcends or has a being in itself, in an epistemological sense, and as it is not known if some of the kinds of times out there really exist or not, he has taken the time to hypothesize about various types of times and has contributed his own view:
There are:
(a) Real and ordinary time, or universal linear time. According to many scientists, it is the fourth dimension of spacetime, symbolized by the letter t. (The first three are, according to the Cartesian coordinate system: x, y, z.) The time unit in the International System of Units —Le Système Internationl d'unités (SI)—, is the second. Many analog watches and clocks have in addition to the hours' and minutes' hands, a third hand called seconds' hand, it takes this seconds' hand, 60 seconds or a minute to complete one turn around the clock face.
However, the higher the speed at which an aircraft, rocket, spaceship move... the slower the time passes for the crew and passengers than for those on earth.
(b) Verb tenses (times): The verb has moods; the mood, tenses; the tense, numbers; the number, persons.
(c) The musical times (rhythms).
(d) The historical times (in the time of the Vikings, in the time of Queen Christina of Sweden), sports times (Overath scored one goal in the 14th minute of the second half time of yesterday's soccer game), innings (in baseball), falls (in wrestling), rounds (in boxing), sets (in tennis), quarters (in football), deadlines, dates, terms, eons, epochs, eras, ages, periods, seasons, episodes, planting, harvesting, phases, cycles, seasons, breaks, durations, dates, stages, calends, epacts, seconds, minutes, hours, sesquihours, days, infra octaves, weeks, octaves, novenas, tens, fortnights, months, bimonthly, quarterly, quadrimonthly, semesters, years, bienniums or biennia, trienniums or triennia, quadrenniums or quadrennia, lustrums or lustra, quinquenniums or quinquennia, sexenniums or sexennia, septenniums or septennia, octenniums or octennia, novenniums or novennia, decenniums or decennia, decades, centuries, sesquicenturies, millenia, et cetera.
(e) Real-time systems and timesharing systems, in informatics, cybernetics, communications...
For example, the Gulf War (01/17/1991-02/28/1991) in Iraq, was covered live —in real time— by cameras and microphones of Cable News Network, or CNN, founded by billionaire Ted Turner. CNN transmitted battles and attacks in the same instant that happened, however, the signal arrived to television sets in North America with a few seconds delay. However it was considered that the transmissions and receptions were simultaneous, although strictly speaking that did not happen.
In computing, timeshare systems refer to concurrent use of computing resources among many users simultaneously through multiprogramming technologies.
(f) Time for a menu, banquet, lunch, dinner.
Here, time means entry. For instance, a menu of four entries may be composed as follows:
First entry (time): for example, a table of white, light cheeses, with grapes.
Second entry (time): a salad (various types of lettuce, shredded carrots, radishes, tomatoes, et cetera), or a soup, or a mousse (this French word literally means "foam") made with beaten egg whites (and/or whipped cream) and some vegetable like broccoli, asparagus, et cetera, or chop suey (a Chinese expression) [without meat]: bean or soy sprouts, onions, mushrooms, rice, soy sauce...
Third entry (time): main course: meat (beef, pork, horse, donkey, deer, rabbit, chicken, turkey, duck, frog... ), or fish, or shellfish, id est, proteins and fats.
Fourth entry (time): dessert: jelly, pudding, snow, pie, cake...
(g) Strokes (times), in mechanics and engineering: phases of an internal combustion engine . For example, a four-stroke engine completes a combustion thermodynamic cycle this way: 1 admission, 2 compression, 3 explosion/expansion, 4 exhaust.
(h) Timeshares or multiple ownership. The timeshare scheme refers to the right of use of real estate and its gardens, pools, beaches, forests, and nearby facilities, for a certain period (one week a year, for example). Generally these facilities are used to spend vacations or holidays.
(i) Imaginary time. English physicist Stephen Hawking (1942- ) has noted that the ordinary and real time can be graphed or viewed as a horizontal line (x-axis) that goes from left to right, the past time is on the left and the future time is on the right, it is also possible to consider the imaginary time as a line perpendicular (vertical) to the real time, id est, right-angled at 90 degrees from the line of real or ordinary time. In this vertical line ( y-axis), the previous imaginary time is below, and the future imaginary time is above.
(j) Saving of time, or knowledge as a substitute for time:
Imagine you are reading a book of over 700 pages, which does not exist on the Internet, there is no electronic version; only thousands of printed copies of this paper-and-ink product. Someone, for example the editor, before sending the book to the printing press, has decided to command a reviewer or copy editor or spelling checker or style proofreader, that in addition to provide a table of contents or general index to be printed in the first pages of the book, his subordinate(s) shall make several more indexes (to place them in the final pages of the book): (A) one onomastic index, alphabetized by the last names of the persons mentioned in the book, (B) a toponymic index, with the names of cities, towns, rivers, dams, states, provinces, prefectures, schools, markets, museums, palaces, churches, parks, gardens, et cetera, that appear in the book, (C) an analytical index of trascendent words or concepts or keywords that appear in the book, (D) an authors' index, which lists the scientists and writers mentioned in the volume, (E) a sequence or progression of notes (numbered from the beginning to the end of the book, or numbered by chapter) when the editor decides that such notes will not be footnotes but they will be endnotes which will be collected under a separate heading at the end of chapters or at the end of the book, (F) finally, a bibliography, and/or a hemerography, and/or a webography.
Without the inclusion of these indices, you, as a reader, would have to invest or "waste" time to find the character, let us say, Ernest Spencer, or the Falcon Dam, or entropy (or enthalpy, or intussusception, or solipsism, or chronaxie, or loxodrome, or achromatopsia), that rare word that appeared on... what page? ... and that author Seldner... on which page was he cited?, et cetera.
The editor, a great foresighter, will have saved you minutes and even hours of searching. You just need to know the alphabet: a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z... and refer to the appropriate index. Such an index will point you which page to go to.
Centuries and even decades ago, many books did not include these indices.
—
On the internet there are gigantic databases used by search engines like:
yahoo.com, bing.com, ask.com, cuil.com.co, www.hotbot.com, google.com, kosmix.com, hakia.com, lexxe.com, answers.com/bb, wolframalpha.com, deeppeep.org, clusty.com, http://blindsearch.fejus.com, duckduckgo.com, yauba, hunch.com, OneRiot, Scoopler, powerset , yandex, et cetera.
In a way, these databases are sophisticated and manipulatable* indexes, containing numerous data and connections, they are giant, used for performing searches, Boolean ones or not. They save the users a lot of time.
*But only by the respective software of the abovementioned companies.
—
In the extreme sections or headers of aisles or shelves in supermarkets, there are signs, indicators of the products you can find there. The manager will have saved you time, having commanded certain employees to print and put those signs in the aisle 1, aisle 2, aisle 3, and so on.
—
The above are only three examples in which knowledge replaces –or saves– time, even if partially, id est, it will not save you 100 percent of time, as you should consult an index, or visit/open an Internet search engine, or walk in order to read a sign. Yes, it can be argued that knowledge replaces or saves more than 95 percent of your time in most cases, as I believe.
(k) Other kinds of time, you can search in dictionaries and encyclopedias.
(l) Clocks, watches, timers, calendars, diaries, logs, itineraries, schedules, Gantt charts...
(m) The time regained (Le temps retrouvé) [1927], a posthumous novel by French writer Marcel Proust (1871-1922).
There are no:
(1) Cyclic times of Hindus, Egyptians, Native Americans, and so on.
In the center of the flag of India is the Ashoka Chakra, also known as Wheel of Time, in navy blue, with 24 peaks symbolizing the 24 hours of the day. It replaced the spinning wheel, which was at the center of the flag before Independence of India, from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, which occurred on Friday, 08/15/1947.
The Wheel of Time means wheel movement, the dynamism of a peaceful change, as the stagnation means death, whereas in movement there is life, India should not resist change, it must move, go forward.
That famous "Wheel of Time" is related to metempsychosis or transmigration of souls, the basis of reincarnation, another Hindu myth.
Another leg-pull was the supposed Aztec, Mexica, Meshica or Nahua cycle of 52 years. These Amerindians, whose capital was Tenochtitlan founded by the chieftain Tenoch to 1325 AD (ce), at the end of each cycle of 52 years, they feared for the fate of the world if the Sun could think "no rise again", so that the priests used to perform, at the end of the 52-year cycle, a ritual of The New Fire, they lit fire at a teocalli (temple, or rather "a house of a god"), at the hill of La Estrella (The Star), in Mexico City, then known as Huizachtécatl. Also sacrificed a warrior or an important individual.
(2) Time that goes "backwards", id est, into the past. Something that can "illustrate" this is the baloney shown in the video for the song "Return to innocence", from the album The cross of changes, 1993, by German-Romanian electronic music group Enigma, which depicts the life of an individual that begins with death and ends with birth.
(3) Greek gods like Chronos nor Greek titans like Cronus .
(4) Individuals —and especially women— that rejuvenate rather than age, because they use a watch whose hands rotate counterclockwise.
Several things that "existed" and no longer exist:
(α, alpha) The atime. Before the Big Bang the atime "existed": there was no time. The prefix a- in "atime" means "without ", from the Greek language; it is a privative prefix.
Time, space, matter, antimatter, dark matter, energy, dark energy, the antienergy and antitime began to coexist simultaneously in the Big Bang, or can also be argued, that already existed before the Big Bang, but were "static", "reduced" , "condensed", "latent", "lethargic", or "crouched" in one single point, and were measurable in "zeptobarns" or "yoctobarns" (area) or yoctometers (diameter).
(β, beta) Nothingness or "absolute vacuum".
(γ, gamma ) The antispace.
At the time of the Big Bang, atime, nothingness or "absolute vacuum", and antispace ceased to exist.
Please remember that these paragraphs are nonsense, specifically this one is #193. Just kidding.
If darkness is the absence of light, if black is the absence of color, if cold is the absence of heat, then atime could be the absence or lack of time. But are there or "existed "once, darkness, the black "color", cold, atime?
It is not known if the following ones exist:
(I) The diatime, id est, "time through time."
(II) Hemitime and partitime or partialtime.
(II a) To understand these concepts, we have to use a simile. Imagine that you are sanding a piece of wood, a quadrangular prism, for example, with only your right hand. You stop for a few minutes and go to the fridge to get a drink (soda) or a beer; while drinking your refreshment, you think about ending the task faster if you use both hands simultaneously, apply more work, force, energy, so you go back to where the wooden polyhedron is and take two equal pieces of sandpaper, one in each hand, and start sanding simultaneously two opposite faces of the piece of wood (hemitime) , and then you call your brother/son and the piece is sanded by four hands (partialtime).
(II b) Due to your job, you travel weekly to another city, located 180 miles from where you live, in a car at 60 miles per hour. Suddenly, one day, you decide to travel at 120 m.p.h to save half the time. The risk of an accident is greater.
(II c) You are a foreman or a manager, seated at a table, and perform accounts and computations while monitoring the reapers or workers. You kill two birds with one stone.
(II') Accelerated time.
(II a') Instead of sanding with four hands, you and your brother/son sand with four machines, a faster way (partialtime, but faster than partitime).
(II b') You travel by plane, or use the internet to avoid having to travel by car.
(II c') You delegate these tasks, in order to embark on a larger project, about the company overview, statistics, growth forecast for next year, and so on.
(III) Asynchronous time, or acurrence.
(IV) Accelerated time... it is when a faster time overtakes a time that advances at "cruising speed".
(V) Extropic time. It puts order. This is the opposite of entropic time (entropy: "magnitude of disorder in a system.")
(VI) Riemannian times. Just as there are Riemannian spaces (named after German mathematician George F.B. Riemann [1826-1866 ]), There may be Riemannian times. —This is a joke, as far as it is known, there are no Riemannian times. The Riemannian spaces do exist, epistemologically, as ideal objects, as mathematical entities. So they are intangible, unlike an orange or a baseball, for example.
(VII) While time is a nonspatial continuum, maybe the chronyon does exist, it is an hypothetical elementary particle of time. It is an elementary boson of mass 0 (zero) which apparently interacts with almost no particles, exceptions are other chronyons, and antichronyons. The spin or angular momentum of chronyons is 0 (zero), but it can change to 1 wildly, and it is unknown if their charge is positive, negative, neutral, neutral-simple, neutral-combined, pseudopositive, pseudonegative, fluctuating-variable (if it changes from - to +, and/or from + to -, and if it increases and decreases each yoctosecond) or if they have no charge at all. It is therefore a great mystery of physics and mathematics. APhN5 says he has discovered the chronyon on Thursday, January 9, 2014.
Chronyons are by far the fastest particles in the universe. In fact, they can cross the entire universe in a yoctosecond: 1 x 10 ^ -24 s.
(VIII) Normal straight time. When chronyons are moving in a straight line.
(IX) Circumferential time. It occurs when chronyons do not move in a straight line but circumferentially.
(X) Ellipsoidal time. It happens when chronyons do not move in a straight line, but along the perimeter of an ellipse.
(XI) Parabolic time. It happens when chronyons do not move in a straight line, but parabolically.
(XII) Hyperbolic time. It happens when chronyons do not advance in a straight line, but paired (always in pairs) move hyperbolically.
(XIII) Inverted or retro time. When chronyons do not advance, but retreat.
(XIV) Spheroidal Time. When chronyons travel as if they were moving along the surface of a sphere by following the points of the "north pole" of a spiraloidly moving axis as per well defined radianic scales.
(XV) Helicoidal time. It happens when chronyons follow the stroke of a spinning propeller.
(XVI) Zigzag time. Chronyons advance in zigzag.
(XVII) Sinusoidal time. The chronyons, when traveling, plot sinusoid curves.
(XVIII) Intratime. Internal time or "time within time."
(XIX) Metatime. Time which is posterior to real or ordinary time.
(XX) Paratime. Co-time, or "time along time." Really, a mysterious phenomenon.
(XXI) Fantastic time. It is distantly similar to imaginary time —please see subsection (i), above—, the difference is that this one should be plotted as a line correspond to the z-axis of the Cartesian coordinates. In this case, the past time is close to the observer of the three axes, and and the future time is away from the observer.
(XXII) Combined time. This time happens when chronyons rotate circumferentially, but also advance otherwise (as do cyclones).
XXIII) Hypertime. This rare phenomenon is the "excess of time".
(XXIV) Hypotime. "Lack of time".
(XXV) Discontinuous or intermittent time. This one occurs when chronyons disappear and reappear every yoctosecond or every zeptosecond, according to some variables not yet determined. Apparently they do not annihilate each other. It is not something magical, but a scientific mystery.
(XXVI) Still time, or floating time. The chronyons station themselves "voluntarily".
(XXVII) Boxed or captured time. The chronyons are stationary, held by the action of antichronyons.
(XXVIII) Focused time. The chronyons form beams focused toward a moment or an instant in time.
(XXIX) Rupture of time. The chronyons break formation and move in any and all directions, wildly.
(XXX) Descending time. The chronyons are rapidly precipitated.
(XXXI) Antitime. It happens when it is not chronyons, but the elusive and rare antichronyons, advancing, apparently straight.
(XXXII) Mutually annihilating, enemy times. When a group of chronyons and other constituted by antichronyons decide to collide and annihilate each other. They may be equidistant or not to the point of collision. Moreover, this strange phenomenon may lead to the creation of atimes, although ephemeral, fortunately for humankind.
(XXXIII) Extended time. When certain smart chronyons decrease their speed so that the actors —humans, animals, plants, fungi, viruses, inert objects— can consider an extension of the "this instant" time, since the latter only lasts a moment, and it would be imperceptible. For example, Catherine can tell her friend on her cell phone : "I am going out of school," when in fact she came two minutes ago and is situated about 600 feet from her school.
(XXXIV) Bubbly time. It is when chronyons form "bubbles". Time encapsulates itself capriciously.
(XXXV) Slowed time. The chronyons drastically reduce its speed when a spaceship, star, group of particles, et cetera, passes close to them at high speed.
(XXXVI) Latent time. When time is "hidden" —chronyons rise and fall quickly to pretend they do not exist, but no longer fool anyone.
(XXXVII) Expansive time. When chronyons disperse to occupy more space. The "t" wants to take over the other three variables (x, y, z).
(XXXVIII) Intermittent time. When chronyons of certain regions of the universe stop and create an "empty time" each yoctosecond, and then resume their flight. It is imperceptible to human senses, but a fourth-generation detector of time can track it.
(XXXIX) Elongated permanent time. It will happen when, after the Big Rip, the chronyons will double each yoctosecond and pretend they fill, all by themselves, all of the immense and unimaginable space. Antichronyons will double too, but every two yoctoseconds, so this process will be very slow and lengthy .

Renato Leduc, a Mexican poet and journalist (1897-1986), published in 1939, a poem (which was later set to music, so there is a song, too.)
Time
Wise virtue of knowing the time;
on time loving, and unleashing on time
as the saying goes: to give time to time...
that of love and pain, relieves the time.
That love, whom I loved to untimely
martyred me so much and so long
that I never felt the passing time
as bitterly as in that time.
To love wanting as in another time
—I was still unaware that time is gold—
so much time I lost —alas!—, so much time.
And now that of loves I have no time
love of those times, how I long for
the wicked bliss of wasting time...

The song:

The original poem, in Spanish:
Tiempo
Sabia virtud de conocer el tiempo;
a tiempo amar y desatarse a tiempo;
como dice el refrán: dar tiempo al tiempo...
que de amor y dolor alivia el tiempo.
Aquel amor a quien amé a destiempo
martirizome tanto y tanto tiempo
que no sentí jamás correr el tiempo,
tan acremente como en ese tiempo.
Amar queriendo como en otro tiempo
–ignoraba yo aún que el tiempo es oro–
cuánto tiempo perdí –ay– cuánto tiempo.
Y hoy que de amores ya no tengo tiempo,
amor de aquellos tiempos, cuánto añoro
la dicha inicua de perder el tiempo...

From the Augustinian friar, priest, scholar and poet of New Spain, Miguel de Guevara (1585?-1646?), a mistake-in-accounts sonnet:
The time and the account
Asks me the time about itself account
If I can give the account to the time:
That who lived so long without account ...
How he has to give, with no time, so much account?
To take, does not want the time, time on account
For I have not given the account to time:
That time would take into account the time,
If in the account of time, there were account.
Which time has to suffice to so much account?
Which account has to suffice for so much time?
That the one who lives without account, lacks time...
And I am without time or account,
Knowing that I have to give account for the time
And has to arrive, the time of the account.
- -
The original, in Spanish:
El tiempo y la cuenta
Pídeme el tiempo de sí mismo cuenta,
Si darle puedo yo la cuenta al tiempo:
Que quien vivió sin cuenta tanto tiempo...
¿Cómo ha de dar sin tiempo tanta cuenta?
Tomar no quiere el tiempo, tiempo en cuenta,
Por no haberle dado yo la cuenta al tiempo:
Que el tiempo tomaría en cuenta el tiempo,
Si en la cuenta del tiempo hubiera cuenta.
¿Qué tiempo ha de bastar a tanta cuenta?
¿Qué cuenta ha de bastar a tanto tiempo?
Que a quien vive sin cuenta, falta tiempo...
Y yo estoy sin tener tiempo ni cuenta,
Sabiendo que he de dar cuenta del tiempo
Y ha de llegar el tiempo de la cuenta.

chronyon (in Spanish, cronión) hypothetical particle of time, as a joke. Alejandro Ochoa G. [I] has [have] coined the term on Wednesday, January 22, 2014 (MMXIV), at home, in the city of Guadalajara, very close to:
20.702085 degrees, N; -103.32535 degrees, W.
20º42’ 07.506” N, -103º 19’ 31.26” W
antichronyon (in Spanish, anticronión) the antiparticle of the chronyon.
The expansion of time can occur if chronyons are trapped and their speed is drastically reduced. Thus, it can slow time and life, and the old age arrives later than usual. Everything happens as if it were in "slow motion".
That is, when chronyons are "compressed", time gets expanded.
AFN5 is currently working in manufacturing a chronyons' compressor/expander of time.
If you want to compress time, it is more difficult: it necessarily involves compressing the elusive antichronyons.

Synthetic pheromones.
On Tuesday, January 30, 2007, in Geneva, Switzerland, biochemistry master Astra Mass and chemical engineer Carl Thornton created a series of powerful, very concentrated, and altered synthetic pheromones (F ) which they dyed in order to identify them. These ones could solve many problems affecting humankind.
The liquid vehicle they have used to keep pheromones stable is 70 percent of double distilled water and 30 per cent of pure ethyl alcohol.
Pheromones can be sprayed by using an atomizer in front of the face of the person concerned.
For example, Blue 43 F is an inhibiting agent of appetite, or "takes away the hunger." There are many individuals who have very little money to buy the food they require daily. This F helps mitigate the need to eat. No need to follow the teachings of fakirs of India.
Yellow 51 F instills the will to acquire knowledge, to learn, that is, it will be useful to help to educate the ignorant and "analphabeast" humankind.
Magenta 67 F imbues a sense of honesty both in ordinary citizens and in politicians; its effects are most powerful and notorious in the latter case. It is expected that Mass and Thornton manufacture many 42-U.S.-gallon barrels of this preparation to give it for free (atomizers included) to politicians around the world, so they can aspire it.

Carbajo in Istanbul.
At that cafe of Istanbul, Guanajuatean entrepreneur moves forward both hands to push aside the curtains of lace with beads that separate the hall from the great saloon, and enters this one, looking between dense cigarette smoke for an empty table against the wall —he wants to be looking East-West. It is a little more than the twenty-second hour of that warm night of 2004. He lights one of his Delicados Ovalados cigarettes (he has taken with himself several packs from Mexico), and asks for a mocha liqueur and pear pies. A musical group of strings and wind enlivens that Middle-Eastern evening, and the three half-naked dancers contort and dance in frenzied fro... they are wearing their last three veils only. The Arabian Nights is a cafe-bar where riffraffs gather. Our character, Mario Carbajo-Urquiza, hears an old-telephone-style ring-ring in his cell phone; he answers.
It is his partner calling from San Miguel el Grande (now San Miguel de Allende), to inform him that the local Congress has already authorized the construction of the dam, and all will be well . "Thank you, René, thank you, see you there in a week, my best regards to your wife," says Carbajo.

Tangoache the drinker of tepache —Tangoache el tomatepache— (a fermented beverage made of pineapple and sugar) was a Tarascan (Purhépecha) indian, an eighteenth-century craftsman who worked always seated (what a lazy indian!), at the edge of a Michoacan state lake, when the lakes had clean water. He used to work at the speed of a dying pig, that is, he was painfully slow. Just subsisted. In the mornings he ate tortillas with atole (a gruel made of corn flour), and at night he ate as a "dinner", atole with tortillas. He was very ugly and drunk, used to drink tepache and charanda (a low-class and cheap liquor, similar to rum).
Tarascos never were completely conquered by the powerful Aztec Empire, which could only impose some tributes.
Many tarascan women were given to Spanish conquerors, others were usually raped by Spaniards.
The tarascos (in English, Tarascans) of nowadays do not like to be called "tarascos" by mestizo or white people. Usually a tarasco gets angry when someone call him "tarasco" (because that "could" mean one has sexual intercourse with his daughter[s]). Tarascos or tarascan people refer to themselves as purhépechas or purépechas (purhé or puré means "people" or "person", "individual"). It seems that purhépecha was the original name of this tribe. In the word "purhépecha" the h is silent (approximately, pour-eh-peh-chahs). And, to name an actual brother-in-law they call him "taratzin" (little brother-in-law).
Michoacanos, or people from Michoacan —Michoacans—, are stereotyped as dirty, poor, sly, cagey, very dark-skinned (in Spanish, "prietos"), ugly,* lazy and above all, opportunistic.
The territory of Michoacan was inhabited by a tribe called tarascos.
*As per the "standard" European beauty canons. —Rich in beauty and aesthetics are the people whose face and/or body somehow resembles/approximates the definitions we have been received from artists such as Il Pinturicchio (Bernardino di Betto, 1454-1513), Raphael Sanzio (1483-1520), Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528), Diego Velázquez (1599-1660), portraits of girls and women, but not of men, by Rembrandt (1606-1669), Camille Corot (1796-1875), and John William Waterhouse (1849 -1917).
Michoacans who migrate out of Michoacan are seen like the plague by inhabitants of some other States (Jalisco, Sonora, Mexico City [Distrito Federal])... lazy ones, thieves, ugly...
Some individuals natives and/or residents of the Mexican state of Michoacan (the land of Tarascan people) say boastfully, about tarascos* that those ones were never defeated. It is true that they were never defeated... by Aztecs or Nahuas or Mexicas or Meshicas (four different names for a single people). These conflicting, unruly, ugly, dark-skinned and self-conscious indians (Tarascans or Purhépecha) were unbeaten in their territories in the state of Michoacán, but outside its boundaries were defeated by the allied armies of the king or lord (hueytlatoani) Colimán or Colimotl (from the nowadays State of Colima) and Cihualpilli, the queen of Tonalá (Jalisco), precisely during the Saltpeter Wars (Guerras del Salitre), close to Zacoalco, State of Jalisco. Some historians set the date in 1480; others, in 1510.
*It is still debated the meaning and origin of the word Tarasco (or tarascue, which is the original term in purhépecha or tarascan language). Apparently it means indistinctly something like "an in-law who does not belong to the generation of the individual who is talking" , id est, son-in-law, daughter in-law, father in-law, mother in law; however, some argue that "tarasco" also means brother in-law, and sister in-law. Purhépecha Indians called "tarascue" their Spanish sons in-law, as the former used to give their daughters as wives to the European conquerors. Another version states that the word comes from the Tarascan name of a god adored in Michoacán, called Taras, which in turn could be a partial corruption of the word tharés ("idol" in purhépecha), only to complicate more the etymology of the word tarasco.
The state's name, Michoacán, comes from the Aztec or Nahua or Mexica or Meshica word Mechhuacan, which means "the place of those who have fishes".
In 1522, the Tarascan indians were defeated by the Spaniards under Cristóbal de Olid, who had superior weapons, "gunpowder and fire."
In early 1530, bloodthirsty spanish captain Nuño Beltrán de Guzmán commanded his subordinates to kill the king of the purhépechas, Tangaxoan II.
Due to their ancestral complex, poverty, ignorance, ugliness from the subjective point of view of inhabitants of other Mexican states, and other ills, even today, in the second decade of the 21st century, in a general sense, people emigrant from Michoacan causes problems wherever they go, are a kind of unredeemed undesirable ones. Some of them are accustomed to shoot each other, and to shoot non-Michoacans too, id est, original inhabitants of the states where they (Michoacans) migrate to (for example, Jalisco, Sonora...), reluctantly work (unlike people coming from Colima and Guanajuato, for example), men tend to consume liquor as Cossacks, are troublemakers, and apparently the darker their skin (bronze or brown), the worse they are. Are belittled and treated contemptuously by citizens of other states of the Mexican Republic, precisely those states they have migrated to. They are something like the blacks in the United States of America: "no one" wants them; they are some kind of undesirable ones.
They have been stereotyped as crappy people, comparable to Oaxacans, and out of Mexico: Hondurans, Salvadorans, Nicaraguans and Guatemalans.
Nonsense CCII.
Microbes.
On Saturday, May 4, 1532, in the Old State of Poseidon Island (Pacific Ocean) occurred a reversible microbial rapture, responsible for life on Earth continued more or less well, as has happened up until now. If such a phenomenon had not occurred, today probably only there would be unicellular life in this world.

They failed to scrutinize the signs and now those unfortunate humans from South and Southeast Mexico walk miserly in the chill and the darkness of the desert, disoriented, crying, ragged, complaining, thirsty, hungry, tired, desperate, howling, snarling and dying, because of their stupidity, ignorance, laziness, arrogance and perversity. Probably in the next few days will be part of the menu of desert beasts and vultures.

Smoke and pseudo sculptures.
Also, Peter has "invented" a series of computer programs —software— that through the simultaneous use of two to six web cameras and a computer (PC), interpret images of ephemeral figures of rising smoke (pardon the tautology, but it is necessary); up until now, have been used only in blue, gray, or white smoke, or a combination of two or more colors of these three cited, from straws and cones of incense and cigarettes, against white, black, gray, red, violet, sky blue backgrounds... irregular, spiraloid, toroidal, et cetera, and most importantly, the software automatically creates complex equations using the three variables (interdependent, in this case) of three-dimensional space —x, y, z—. It does not consider the t (time) because they have been used stills ("frozen images") extracted from the videos resulting from the continuous action of the webcams that have captured the smoke in different environments: quiet, with little natural wind, with more natural wind, with wind from a fan... and then the software interprets the equations and make pseudo-embodiments (pseudo-corporeizations) of figures by a sort of virtual gel (all in computer, virtual, environment). Once approved some figure thus obtained and delivered by the software in three-dimensional images, an editor sends them to a three-dimensional (3D) printer —an industrial robot—, to three-dimensionally print them. It manages to produce a plastic figure or pseudo sculpture, which is then painted with automotive paints, metallic or not.
Nonsense CCVIII.
Musical notes and abstract figures.
Now , Peter is in the process of creating a software capable of interpreting mathematically symphonies, sonatas, classic melodies, et cetera, with the help of sound recorders and match the vibrations of a tuning fork to the pitch of 440 hertz for the sixth note: A (in the Spanish and Latin American notation: La), and design equations then serve as a basis to generate abstract three-dimensional figures.

Αθηνά Μιτάκης (Athena Mitakis) (1979- ), as far as it is known, the unique and only one quasi-omniscient human being in the world in the twenty-first century, in Corinth, at 2:49 am local time, Friday, December 13, 2013, finished the concoction of her 4096-page tome in eight-point font pompously entitled Προσωρινή κανόνες και κανονισμούς για όλες τις επιστήμες, την τέχνη, τη φιλοσοφία και τη γλώσσα (Provisional rules and regulations for all science, art, philosophy and language). On Saturday 14 she began to translate it into Sanskrit, and on the 21st day of December, to Latin.

Nonsense CCXVI.
Teaching and learning.
Actions and decisions in the education sector which alternatively become dichotomies: atypical-stereotypical, separating-annexing, dispersants-binders, substracting-juxtaposing, bifurcated-convergent, at the choice and/or convenience of the staff, secretaries or ministers of Education, or left aside in an inadequate slope, depending on the time, or misapplied by inertia, or "novel experiments", or because of changing and capricious policies, consitute a good proof of the misguided planning of the mediocre western education system —with exceptions.
It is time to follow those who know, who have established schools and benchmarks.
Constructivism of Jean Piaget (1896-1980, a Swiss epistemologist, biologist and psychologist , founder of the constructivist theory of learning) and Lev S. Vygotski or Vygotsky or Vigotsky (1896-1934, a Russian Jewish psychologist) , proclaims that the student must receive from his/her teachers, tools that allow him/her to create his/her own procedures to resolve a conflict, which means that their concepts or ideas morph, change, and he/she continue learning.
Moreover, any person (need not be a "student", "pupil" or "learner" ) can come to understand concepts or previously unknown things, add, rearrange and recombine knowledge, based on what you do know since an hour one day, one month, one year, five years, et cetera ago, and/or after reading to learn something new, and/or having heard an explanation given by a one-time or occasional teacher or guru" (id est, an unknown guy explains what, how, why, what, where, et cetera to us, and maybe we will not seen him again in the rest of our life). This unknown individual can teach us directly, or through one of his websites or blogs or videos on Youtube that perhaps he has uploaded thme a month ago or two years ago, et cetera, to the world wide web (internet) and so, we need not to meet him, ever. It is rather a question of will, we want to learn.
There are:
(a) Real and ordinary time, or universal linear time. According to many scientists, it is the fourth dimension of spacetime, symbolized by the letter t. (The first three are, according to the Cartesian coordinate system: x, y, z.) The time unit in the International System of Units —Le Système Internationl d'unités (SI)—, is the second. Many analog watches and clocks have in addition to the hours' and minutes' hands, a third hand called seconds' hand, it takes this seconds' hand, 60 seconds or a minute to complete one turn around the clock face.
However, the higher the speed at which an aircraft, rocket, spaceship move... the slower the time passes for the crew and passengers than for those on earth.
(b) Verb tenses (times): The verb has moods; the mood, tenses; the tense, numbers; the number, persons.
(c) The musical times (rhythms).
(d) The historical times (in the time of the Vikings, in the time of Queen Christina of Sweden), sports times (Overath scored one goal in the 14th minute of the second half time of yesterday's soccer game), innings (in baseball), falls (in wrestling), rounds (in boxing), sets (in tennis), quarters (in football), deadlines, dates, terms, eons, epochs, eras, ages, periods, seasons, episodes, planting, harvesting, phases, cycles, seasons, breaks, durations, dates, stages, calends, epacts, seconds, minutes, hours, sesquihours, days, infra octaves, weeks, octaves, novenas, tens, fortnights, months, bimonthly, quarterly, quadrimonthly, semesters, years, bienniums or biennia, trienniums or triennia, quadrenniums or quadrennia, lustrums or lustra, quinquenniums or quinquennia, sexenniums or sexennia, septenniums or septennia, octenniums or octennia, novenniums or novennia, decenniums or decennia, decades, centuries, sesquicenturies, millenia, et cetera.
(e) Real-time systems and timesharing systems, in informatics, cybernetics, communications...
For example, the Gulf War (01/17/1991-02/28/1991) in Iraq, was covered live —in real time— by cameras and microphones of Cable News Network, or CNN, founded by billionaire Ted Turner. CNN transmitted battles and attacks in the same instant that happened, however, the signal arrived to television sets in North America with a few seconds delay. However it was considered that the transmissions and receptions were simultaneous, although strictly speaking that did not happen.
In computing, timeshare systems refer to concurrent use of computing resources among many users simultaneously through multiprogramming technologies.
(f) Time for a menu, banquet, lunch, dinner.
Here, time means entry. For instance, a menu of four entries may be composed as follows:
First entry (time): for example, a table of white, light cheeses, with grapes.
Second entry (time): a salad (various types of lettuce, shredded carrots, radishes, tomatoes, et cetera), or a soup, or a mousse (this French word literally means "foam") made with beaten egg whites (and/or whipped cream) and some vegetable like broccoli, asparagus, et cetera, or chop suey (a Chinese expression) [without meat]: bean or soy sprouts, onions, mushrooms, rice, soy sauce...
Third entry (time): main course: meat (beef, pork, horse, donkey, deer, rabbit, chicken, turkey, duck, frog... ), or fish, or shellfish, id est, proteins and fats.
Fourth entry (time): dessert: jelly, pudding, snow, pie, cake...
(g) Strokes (times), in mechanics and engineering: phases of an internal combustion engine . For example, a four-stroke engine completes a combustion thermodynamic cycle this way: 1 admission, 2 compression, 3 explosion/expansion, 4 exhaust.
(h) Timeshares or multiple ownership. The timeshare scheme refers to the right of use of real estate and its gardens, pools, beaches, forests, and nearby facilities, for a certain period (one week a year, for example). Generally these facilities are used to spend vacations or holidays.
(i) Imaginary time. English physicist Stephen Hawking (1942- ) has noted that the ordinary and real time can be graphed or viewed as a horizontal line (x-axis) that goes from left to right, the past time is on the left and the future time is on the right, it is also possible to consider the imaginary time as a line perpendicular (vertical) to the real time, id est, right-angled at 90 degrees from the line of real or ordinary time. In this vertical line ( y-axis), the previous imaginary time is below, and the future imaginary time is above.
(j) Saving of time, or knowledge as a substitute for time:
Imagine you are reading a book of over 700 pages, which does not exist on the Internet, there is no electronic version; only thousands of printed copies of this paper-and-ink product. Someone, for example the editor, before sending the book to the printing press, has decided to command a reviewer or copy editor or spelling checker or style proofreader, that in addition to provide a table of contents or general index to be printed in the first pages of the book, his subordinate(s) shall make several more indexes (to place them in the final pages of the book): (A) one onomastic index, alphabetized by the last names of the persons mentioned in the book, (B) a toponymic index, with the names of cities, towns, rivers, dams, states, provinces, prefectures, schools, markets, museums, palaces, churches, parks, gardens, et cetera, that appear in the book, (C) an analytical index of trascendent words or concepts or keywords that appear in the book, (D) an authors' index, which lists the scientists and writers mentioned in the volume, (E) a sequence or progression of notes (numbered from the beginning to the end of the book, or numbered by chapter) when the editor decides that such notes will not be footnotes but they will be endnotes which will be collected under a separate heading at the end of chapters or at the end of the book, (F) finally, a bibliography, and/or a hemerography, and/or a webography.
Without the inclusion of these indices, you, as a reader, would have to invest or "waste" time to find the character, let us say, Ernest Spencer, or the Falcon Dam, or entropy (or enthalpy, or intussusception, or solipsism, or chronaxie, or loxodrome, or achromatopsia), that rare word that appeared on... what page? ... and that author Seldner... on which page was he cited?, et cetera.
The editor, a great foresighter, will have saved you minutes and even hours of searching. You just need to know the alphabet: a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z... and refer to the appropriate index. Such an index will point you which page to go to.
Centuries and even decades ago, many books did not include these indices.
—
On the internet there are gigantic databases used by search engines like:
yahoo.com, bing.com, ask.com, cuil.com.co, www.hotbot.com, google.com, kosmix.com, hakia.com, lexxe.com, answers.com/bb, wolframalpha.com, deeppeep.org, clusty.com, http://blindsearch.fejus.com, duckduckgo.com, yauba, hunch.com, OneRiot, Scoopler, powerset , yandex, et cetera.
In a way, these databases are sophisticated and manipulatable* indexes, containing numerous data and connections, they are giant, used for performing searches, Boolean ones or not. They save the users a lot of time.
*But only by the respective software of the abovementioned companies.
—
In the extreme sections or headers of aisles or shelves in supermarkets, there are signs, indicators of the products you can find there. The manager will have saved you time, having commanded certain employees to print and put those signs in the aisle 1, aisle 2, aisle 3, and so on.
—
The above are only three examples in which knowledge replaces –or saves– time, even if partially, id est, it will not save you 100 percent of time, as you should consult an index, or visit/open an Internet search engine, or walk in order to read a sign. Yes, it can be argued that knowledge replaces or saves more than 95 percent of your time in most cases, as I believe.
(k) Other kinds of time, you can search in dictionaries and encyclopedias.
(l) Clocks, watches, timers, calendars, diaries, logs, itineraries, schedules, Gantt charts...
(m) The time regained (Le temps retrouvé) [1927], a posthumous novel by French writer Marcel Proust (1871-1922).
There are no:
(1) Cyclic times of Hindus, Egyptians, Native Americans, and so on.
In the center of the flag of India is the Ashoka Chakra, also known as Wheel of Time, in navy blue, with 24 peaks symbolizing the 24 hours of the day. It replaced the spinning wheel, which was at the center of the flag before Independence of India, from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, which occurred on Friday, 08/15/1947.
The Wheel of Time means wheel movement, the dynamism of a peaceful change, as the stagnation means death, whereas in movement there is life, India should not resist change, it must move, go forward.
That famous "Wheel of Time" is related to metempsychosis or transmigration of souls, the basis of reincarnation, another Hindu myth.
Another leg-pull was the supposed Aztec, Mexica, Meshica or Nahua cycle of 52 years. These Amerindians, whose capital was Tenochtitlan founded by the chieftain Tenoch to 1325 AD (ce), at the end of each cycle of 52 years, they feared for the fate of the world if the Sun could think "no rise again", so that the priests used to perform, at the end of the 52-year cycle, a ritual of The New Fire, they lit fire at a teocalli (temple, or rather "a house of a god"), at the hill of La Estrella (The Star), in Mexico City, then known as Huizachtécatl. Also sacrificed a warrior or an important individual.
(2) Time that goes "backwards", id est, into the past. Something that can "illustrate" this is the baloney shown in the video for the song "Return to innocence", from the album The cross of changes, 1993, by German-Romanian electronic music group Enigma, which depicts the life of an individual that begins with death and ends with birth.
(3) Greek gods like Chronos nor Greek titans like Cronus .
(4) Individuals —and especially women— that rejuvenate rather than age, because they use a watch whose hands rotate counterclockwise.
Several things that "existed" and no longer exist:
(α, alpha) The atime. Before the Big Bang the atime "existed": there was no time. The prefix a- in "atime" means "without ", from the Greek language; it is a privative prefix.
Time, space, matter, antimatter, dark matter, energy, dark energy, the antienergy and antitime began to coexist simultaneously in the Big Bang, or can also be argued, that already existed before the Big Bang, but were "static", "reduced" , "condensed", "latent", "lethargic", or "crouched" in one single point, and were measurable in "zeptobarns" or "yoctobarns" (area) or yoctometers (diameter).
(β, beta) Nothingness or "absolute vacuum".
(γ, gamma ) The antispace.
At the time of the Big Bang, atime, nothingness or "absolute vacuum", and antispace ceased to exist.
Please remember that these paragraphs are nonsense, specifically this one is #193. Just kidding.
If darkness is the absence of light, if black is the absence of color, if cold is the absence of heat, then atime could be the absence or lack of time. But are there or "existed "once, darkness, the black "color", cold, atime?
It is not known if the following ones exist:
(I) The diatime, id est, "time through time."
(II) Hemitime and partitime or partialtime.
(II a) To understand these concepts, we have to use a simile. Imagine that you are sanding a piece of wood, a quadrangular prism, for example, with only your right hand. You stop for a few minutes and go to the fridge to get a drink (soda) or a beer; while drinking your refreshment, you think about ending the task faster if you use both hands simultaneously, apply more work, force, energy, so you go back to where the wooden polyhedron is and take two equal pieces of sandpaper, one in each hand, and start sanding simultaneously two opposite faces of the piece of wood (hemitime) , and then you call your brother/son and the piece is sanded by four hands (partialtime).
(II b) Due to your job, you travel weekly to another city, located 180 miles from where you live, in a car at 60 miles per hour. Suddenly, one day, you decide to travel at 120 m.p.h to save half the time. The risk of an accident is greater.
(II c) You are a foreman or a manager, seated at a table, and perform accounts and computations while monitoring the reapers or workers. You kill two birds with one stone.
(II') Accelerated time.
(II a') Instead of sanding with four hands, you and your brother/son sand with four machines, a faster way (partialtime, but faster than partitime).
(II b') You travel by plane, or use the internet to avoid having to travel by car.
(II c') You delegate these tasks, in order to embark on a larger project, about the company overview, statistics, growth forecast for next year, and so on.
(III) Asynchronous time, or acurrence.
(IV) Accelerated time... it is when a faster time overtakes a time that advances at "cruising speed".
(V) Extropic time. It puts order. This is the opposite of entropic time (entropy: "magnitude of disorder in a system.")
(VI) Riemannian times. Just as there are Riemannian spaces (named after German mathematician George F.B. Riemann [1826-1866 ]), There may be Riemannian times. —This is a joke, as far as it is known, there are no Riemannian times. The Riemannian spaces do exist, epistemologically, as ideal objects, as mathematical entities. So they are intangible, unlike an orange or a baseball, for example.
(VII) While time is a nonspatial continuum, maybe the chronyon does exist, it is an hypothetical elementary particle of time. It is an elementary boson of mass 0 (zero) which apparently interacts with almost no particles, exceptions are other chronyons, and antichronyons. The spin or angular momentum of chronyons is 0 (zero), but it can change to 1 wildly, and it is unknown if their charge is positive, negative, neutral, neutral-simple, neutral-combined, pseudopositive, pseudonegative, fluctuating-variable (if it changes from - to +, and/or from + to -, and if it increases and decreases each yoctosecond) or if they have no charge at all. It is therefore a great mystery of physics and mathematics. APhN5 says he has discovered the chronyon on Thursday, January 9, 2014.
Chronyons are by far the fastest particles in the universe. In fact, they can cross the entire universe in a yoctosecond: 1 x 10 ^ -24 s.
(VIII) Normal straight time. When chronyons are moving in a straight line.
(IX) Circumferential time. It occurs when chronyons do not move in a straight line but circumferentially.
(X) Ellipsoidal time. It happens when chronyons do not move in a straight line, but along the perimeter of an ellipse.
(XI) Parabolic time. It happens when chronyons do not move in a straight line, but parabolically.
(XII) Hyperbolic time. It happens when chronyons do not advance in a straight line, but paired (always in pairs) move hyperbolically.
(XIII) Inverted or retro time. When chronyons do not advance, but retreat.
(XIV) Spheroidal Time. When chronyons travel as if they were moving along the surface of a sphere by following the points of the "north pole" of a spiraloidly moving axis as per well defined radianic scales.
(XV) Helicoidal time. It happens when chronyons follow the stroke of a spinning propeller.
(XVI) Zigzag time. Chronyons advance in zigzag.
(XVII) Sinusoidal time. The chronyons, when traveling, plot sinusoid curves.
(XVIII) Intratime. Internal time or "time within time."
(XIX) Metatime. Time which is posterior to real or ordinary time.
(XX) Paratime. Co-time, or "time along time." Really, a mysterious phenomenon.
(XXI) Fantastic time. It is distantly similar to imaginary time —please see subsection (i), above—, the difference is that this one should be plotted as a line correspond to the z-axis of the Cartesian coordinates. In this case, the past time is close to the observer of the three axes, and and the future time is away from the observer.
(XXII) Combined time. This time happens when chronyons rotate circumferentially, but also advance otherwise (as do cyclones).
XXIII) Hypertime. This rare phenomenon is the "excess of time".
(XXIV) Hypotime. "Lack of time".
(XXV) Discontinuous or intermittent time. This one occurs when chronyons disappear and reappear every yoctosecond or every zeptosecond, according to some variables not yet determined. Apparently they do not annihilate each other. It is not something magical, but a scientific mystery.
(XXVI) Still time, or floating time. The chronyons station themselves "voluntarily".
(XXVII) Boxed or captured time. The chronyons are stationary, held by the action of antichronyons.
(XXVIII) Focused time. The chronyons form beams focused toward a moment or an instant in time.
(XXIX) Rupture of time. The chronyons break formation and move in any and all directions, wildly.
(XXX) Descending time. The chronyons are rapidly precipitated.
(XXXI) Antitime. It happens when it is not chronyons, but the elusive and rare antichronyons, advancing, apparently straight.
(XXXII) Mutually annihilating, enemy times. When a group of chronyons and other constituted by antichronyons decide to collide and annihilate each other. They may be equidistant or not to the point of collision. Moreover, this strange phenomenon may lead to the creation of atimes, although ephemeral, fortunately for humankind.
(XXXIII) Extended time. When certain smart chronyons decrease their speed so that the actors —humans, animals, plants, fungi, viruses, inert objects— can consider an extension of the "this instant" time, since the latter only lasts a moment, and it would be imperceptible. For example, Catherine can tell her friend on her cell phone : "I am going out of school," when in fact she came two minutes ago and is situated about 600 feet from her school.
(XXXIV) Bubbly time. It is when chronyons form "bubbles". Time encapsulates itself capriciously.
(XXXV) Slowed time. The chronyons drastically reduce its speed when a spaceship, star, group of particles, et cetera, passes close to them at high speed.
(XXXVI) Latent time. When time is "hidden" —chronyons rise and fall quickly to pretend they do not exist, but no longer fool anyone.
(XXXVII) Expansive time. When chronyons disperse to occupy more space. The "t" wants to take over the other three variables (x, y, z).
(XXXVIII) Intermittent time. When chronyons of certain regions of the universe stop and create an "empty time" each yoctosecond, and then resume their flight. It is imperceptible to human senses, but a fourth-generation detector of time can track it.
(XXXIX) Elongated permanent time. It will happen when, after the Big Rip, the chronyons will double each yoctosecond and pretend they fill, all by themselves, all of the immense and unimaginable space. Antichronyons will double too, but every two yoctoseconds, so this process will be very slow and lengthy .

Renato Leduc, a Mexican poet and journalist (1897-1986), published in 1939, a poem (which was later set to music, so there is a song, too.)
Time
Wise virtue of knowing the time;
on time loving, and unleashing on time
as the saying goes: to give time to time...
that of love and pain, relieves the time.
That love, whom I loved to untimely
martyred me so much and so long
that I never felt the passing time
as bitterly as in that time.
To love wanting as in another time
—I was still unaware that time is gold—
so much time I lost —alas!—, so much time.
And now that of loves I have no time
love of those times, how I long for
the wicked bliss of wasting time...

The original poem, in Spanish:
Tiempo
Sabia virtud de conocer el tiempo;
a tiempo amar y desatarse a tiempo;
como dice el refrán: dar tiempo al tiempo...
que de amor y dolor alivia el tiempo.
Aquel amor a quien amé a destiempo
martirizome tanto y tanto tiempo
que no sentí jamás correr el tiempo,
tan acremente como en ese tiempo.
Amar queriendo como en otro tiempo
–ignoraba yo aún que el tiempo es oro–
cuánto tiempo perdí –ay– cuánto tiempo.
Y hoy que de amores ya no tengo tiempo,
amor de aquellos tiempos, cuánto añoro
la dicha inicua de perder el tiempo...

From the Augustinian friar, priest, scholar and poet of New Spain, Miguel de Guevara (1585?-1646?), a mistake-in-accounts sonnet:
The time and the account
Asks me the time about itself account
If I can give the account to the time:
That who lived so long without account ...
How he has to give, with no time, so much account?
To take, does not want the time, time on account
For I have not given the account to time:
That time would take into account the time,
If in the account of time, there were account.
Which time has to suffice to so much account?
Which account has to suffice for so much time?
That the one who lives without account, lacks time...
And I am without time or account,
Knowing that I have to give account for the time
And has to arrive, the time of the account.
- -
The original, in Spanish:
El tiempo y la cuenta
Pídeme el tiempo de sí mismo cuenta,
Si darle puedo yo la cuenta al tiempo:
Que quien vivió sin cuenta tanto tiempo...
¿Cómo ha de dar sin tiempo tanta cuenta?
Tomar no quiere el tiempo, tiempo en cuenta,
Por no haberle dado yo la cuenta al tiempo:
Que el tiempo tomaría en cuenta el tiempo,
Si en la cuenta del tiempo hubiera cuenta.
¿Qué tiempo ha de bastar a tanta cuenta?
¿Qué cuenta ha de bastar a tanto tiempo?
Que a quien vive sin cuenta, falta tiempo...
Y yo estoy sin tener tiempo ni cuenta,
Sabiendo que he de dar cuenta del tiempo
Y ha de llegar el tiempo de la cuenta.

chronyon (in Spanish, cronión) hypothetical particle of time, as a joke. Alejandro Ochoa G. [I] has [have] coined the term on Wednesday, January 22, 2014 (MMXIV), at home, in the city of Guadalajara, very close to:
20.702085 degrees, N; -103.32535 degrees, W.
20º
antichronyon (in Spanish, anticronión) the antiparticle of the chronyon.
The expansion of time can occur if chronyons are trapped and their speed is drastically reduced. Thus, it can slow time and life, and the old age arrives later than usual. Everything happens as if it were in "slow motion".
That is, when chronyons are "compressed", time gets expanded.
AFN5 is currently working in manufacturing a chronyons' compressor/expander of time.
If you want to compress time, it is more difficult: it necessarily involves compressing the elusive antichronyons.

Synthetic pheromones.
On Tuesday, January 30, 2007, in Geneva, Switzerland, biochemistry master Astra Mass and chemical engineer Carl Thornton created a series of powerful, very concentrated, and altered synthetic pheromones (F ) which they dyed in order to identify them. These ones could solve many problems affecting humankind.
The liquid vehicle they have used to keep pheromones stable is 70 percent of double distilled water and 30 per cent of pure ethyl alcohol.
Pheromones can be sprayed by using an atomizer in front of the face of the person concerned.
For example, Blue 43 F is an inhibiting agent of appetite, or "takes away the hunger." There are many individuals who have very little money to buy the food they require daily. This F helps mitigate the need to eat. No need to follow the teachings of fakirs of India.
Yellow 51 F instills the will to acquire knowledge, to learn, that is, it will be useful to help to educate the ignorant and "analphabeast" humankind.
Magenta 67 F imbues a sense of honesty both in ordinary citizens and in politicians; its effects are most powerful and notorious in the latter case. It is expected that Mass and Thornton manufacture many 42-U.S.-gallon barrels of this preparation to give it for free (atomizers included) to politicians around the world, so they can aspire it.

Carbajo in Istanbul.
At that cafe of Istanbul, Guanajuatean entrepreneur moves forward both hands to push aside the curtains of lace with beads that separate the hall from the great saloon, and enters this one, looking between dense cigarette smoke for an empty table against the wall —he wants to be looking East-West. It is a little more than the twenty-second hour of that warm night of 2004. He lights one of his Delicados Ovalados cigarettes (he has taken with himself several packs from Mexico), and asks for a mocha liqueur and pear pies. A musical group of strings and wind enlivens that Middle-Eastern evening, and the three half-naked dancers contort and dance in frenzied fro... they are wearing their last three veils only. The Arabian Nights is a cafe-bar where riffraffs gather. Our character, Mario Carbajo-Urquiza, hears an old-telephone-style ring-ring in his cell phone; he answers.
It is his partner calling from San Miguel el Grande (now San Miguel de Allende), to inform him that the local Congress has already authorized the construction of the dam, and all will be well . "Thank you, René, thank you, see you there in a week, my best regards to your wife," says Carbajo.

Tangoache the drinker of tepache —Tangoache el tomatepache— (a fermented beverage made of pineapple and sugar) was a Tarascan (Purhépecha) indian, an eighteenth-century craftsman who worked always seated (what a lazy indian!), at the edge of a Michoacan state lake, when the lakes had clean water. He used to work at the speed of a dying pig, that is, he was painfully slow. Just subsisted. In the mornings he ate tortillas with atole (a gruel made of corn flour), and at night he ate as a "dinner", atole with tortillas. He was very ugly and drunk, used to drink tepache and charanda (a low-class and cheap liquor, similar to rum).
Tarascos never were completely conquered by the powerful Aztec Empire, which could only impose some tributes.
Many tarascan women were given to Spanish conquerors, others were usually raped by Spaniards.
The tarascos (in English, Tarascans) of nowadays do not like to be called "tarascos" by mestizo or white people. Usually a tarasco gets angry when someone call him "tarasco" (because that "could" mean one has sexual intercourse with his daughter[s]). Tarascos or tarascan people refer to themselves as purhépechas or purépechas (purhé or puré means "people" or "person", "individual"). It seems that purhépecha was the original name of this tribe. In the word "purhépecha" the h is silent (approximately, pour-eh-peh-chahs). And, to name an actual brother-in-law they call him "taratzin" (little brother-in-law).
Michoacanos, or people from Michoacan —Michoacans—, are stereotyped as dirty, poor, sly, cagey, very dark-skinned (in Spanish, "prietos"), ugly,* lazy and above all, opportunistic.
The territory of Michoacan was inhabited by a tribe called tarascos.
*As per the "standard" European beauty canons. —Rich in beauty and aesthetics are the people whose face and/or body somehow resembles/approximates the definitions we have been received from artists such as Il Pinturicchio (Bernardino di Betto, 1454-1513), Raphael Sanzio (1483-1520), Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528), Diego Velázquez (1599-1660), portraits of girls and women, but not of men, by Rembrandt (1606-1669), Camille Corot (1796-1875), and John William Waterhouse (1849 -1917).
Some individuals natives and/or residents of the Mexican state of Michoacan (the land of Tarascan people) say boastfully, about tarascos* that those ones were never defeated. It is true that they were never defeated... by Aztecs or Nahuas or Mexicas or Meshicas (four different names for a single people). These conflicting, unruly, ugly, dark-skinned and self-conscious indians (Tarascans or Purhépecha) were unbeaten in their territories in the state of Michoacán, but outside its boundaries were defeated by the allied armies of the king or lord (hueytlatoani) Colimán or Colimotl (from the nowadays State of Colima) and Cihualpilli, the queen of Tonalá (Jalisco), precisely during the Saltpeter Wars (Guerras del Salitre), close to Zacoalco, State of Jalisco. Some historians set the date in 1480; others, in 1510.
*It is still debated the meaning and origin of the word Tarasco (or tarascue, which is the original term in purhépecha or tarascan language). Apparently it means indistinctly something like "an in-law who does not belong to the generation of the individual who is talking" , id est, son-in-law, daughter in-law, father in-law, mother in law; however, some argue that "tarasco" also means brother in-law, and sister in-law. Purhépecha Indians called "tarascue" their Spanish sons in-law, as the former used to give their daughters as wives to the European conquerors. Another version states that the word comes from the Tarascan name of a god adored in Michoacán, called Taras, which in turn could be a partial corruption of the word tharés ("idol" in purhépecha), only to complicate more the etymology of the word tarasco.
The state's name, Michoacán, comes from the Aztec or Nahua or Mexica or Meshica word Mechhuacan, which means "the place of those who have fishes".
In 1522, the Tarascan indians were defeated by the Spaniards under Cristóbal de Olid, who had superior weapons, "gunpowder and fire."
In early 1530, bloodthirsty spanish captain Nuño Beltrán de Guzmán commanded his subordinates to kill the king of the purhépechas, Tangaxoan II.
Due to their ancestral complex, poverty, ignorance, ugliness from the subjective point of view of inhabitants of other Mexican states, and other ills, even today, in the second decade of the 21st century, in a general sense, people emigrant from Michoacan causes problems wherever they go, are a kind of unredeemed undesirable ones. Some of them are accustomed to shoot each other, and to shoot non-Michoacans too, id est, original inhabitants of the states where they (Michoacans) migrate to (for example, Jalisco, Sonora...), reluctantly work (unlike people coming from Colima and Guanajuato, for example), men tend to consume liquor as Cossacks, are troublemakers, and apparently the darker their skin (bronze or brown), the worse they are. Are belittled and treated contemptuously by citizens of other states of the Mexican Republic, precisely those states they have migrated to. They are something like the blacks in the United States of America: "no one" wants them; they are some kind of undesirable ones.
They have been stereotyped as crappy people, comparable to Oaxacans, and out of Mexico: Hondurans, Salvadorans, Nicaraguans and Guatemalans.

Smoke and pseudo sculptures.
Also, Peter has "invented" a series of computer programs —software— that through the simultaneous use of two to six web cameras and a computer (PC), interpret images of ephemeral figures of rising smoke (pardon the tautology, but it is necessary); up until now, have been used only in blue, gray, or white smoke, or a combination of two or more colors of these three cited, from straws and cones of incense and cigarettes, against white, black, gray, red, violet, sky blue backgrounds... irregular, spiraloid, toroidal, et cetera, and most importantly, the software automatically creates complex equations using the three variables (interdependent, in this case) of three-dimensional space —x, y, z—. It does not consider the t (time) because they have been used stills ("frozen images") extracted from the videos resulting from the continuous action of the webcams that have captured the smoke in different environments: quiet, with little natural wind, with more natural wind, with wind from a fan... and then the software interprets the equations and make pseudo-embodiments (pseudo-corporeizations) of figures by a sort of virtual gel (all in computer, virtual, environment). Once approved some figure thus obtained and delivered by the software in three-dimensional images, an editor sends them to a three-dimensional (3D) printer —an industrial robot—, to three-dimensionally print them. It manages to produce a plastic figure or pseudo sculpture, which is then painted with automotive paints, metallic or not.

Moreover, any person (need not be a "student", "pupil" or "learner" ) can come to understand concepts or previously unknown things, add, rearrange and recombine knowledge, based on what you do know since an hour one day, one month, one year, five years, et cetera ago, and/or after reading to learn something new, and/or having heard an explanation given by a one-time or occasional teacher or guru" (id est, an unknown guy explains what, how, why, what, where, et cetera to us, and maybe we will not seen him again in the rest of our life). This unknown individual can teach us directly, or through one of his websites or blogs or videos on Youtube that perhaps he has uploaded thme a month ago or two years ago, et cetera, to the world wide web (internet) and so, we need not to meet him, ever. It is rather a question of will, we want to learn.
