What he fails to spell out in detail here but indicates elsewhere (e.g., PR 96-98/147 -150) is that the extensive
continuum or,
more specifically in terms of our cosmic epoch, the space -
time continuum is not just a single overarching community of actual occasions but an interlocking network of communities or societies of occasions, each of which possesses its own laws and proper dynamism.

Second, the extensive
continuum, of which spatiotemporal extensiveness is a
more specific determination, is a «real potential» factor of thc universe in the Whiteheadian cosmology as opposed to absolute space and absolute
time continua as real and actual things comprising the universe in the Newtonian cosmology (PR 113f; cf. 101 - 06).
Whitehead offers an alternative formulation and claims on behalf of his formulation that it can account for all experimental results accounted for by the Einsteinian formulation but that it represents a different interpretation of these results in terms of a
more adequate concept of nature (PNK vi; CN vii, 182; IS 125 - 35).18 The major theoretical difference between the two formulations is that whereas in the Einsteinian formulation the metric structure of the space -
time continuum is variable from point to point and in differing directions (that is, heterogeneous and nonisotropic), in the Whiteheadian formulation the metric structure of the space -
time continuum is uniform from point to point and in differing directions (that is, homogeneous and isotropic).
More to the point, Newton's «Scholium» which introduces the notions of «absolute, true, mathematical» space and
time, and «relative, apparent, common» space and
time (PNP 6 - 12), makes clear that absolute space and absolute
time continua are thought to be necessary for a satisfactory theory of dynamics, that is, a theory of the forces which determine • the motion of material objects.7 The main idea in Newton's position is that not all physical frames of reference are suitable for satisfactory analysis of the motion of material objects; in fact, no physical frame of reference is completely suitable for this purpose.
As the «one relational complex in which all potential objectifications find their niche,» (Process 66) for Whitehead the extensive
continuum certainly corresponds to the breadth of vision of the divine primordial nature, even as the space -
time continuum as a partial realization of the extensive
continuum corresponds to the
more limited character of the divine consequent nature here and now Thus, even though Whitehead does not make explicit use of field - oriented imagery to describe the God - world relationship, the concepts are at hand to sustain that line of thought.8

UCI's celestial census began
more than a year and a half ago, shortly after the news that the Laser Interferometer Gravitational - Wave Observatory, or LIGO, had detected ripples in the space -

The research, published in Nature Geoscience and led by researchers from the Université Libre de Bruxelles, the University of Exeter, Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et l'Environnement, the University of Hawai'i and ETH Zürich, has for the first
time shown that increased leaching of carbon from soil, mainly due to deforestation, sewage inputs and increased weathering, has resulted in less carbon being stored on land and
more stored in rivers, streams, lakes, reservoirs, estuaries and coastal zones — environments that are together known as the «land - ocean aquatic
continuum».

Testing on the 1 R.M.
continuum on knee flexion exercises (a.k.a. leg curls) show that to stay within 70 % of the maximum, you can not do
