World Clock

World Clock

"Here we go altogether", this is a special train we sit in at 8 o'clock am, just to run the venture of one world. However, it would be remiss not to single out the 22th edition of FIFA World Cup. This year the world cup is playing on the lawns of Qatar. Qatar is a country on the Arabian Peninsula which consists of an arid desert and a long coastline with beaches and dunes along the Persian Gulf.

It is one of our beautiful countries, it has beaches, places and stadiums which are fabulous and have large capacity to welcome thousands of peoples. Folks have come everywhere to support their favorite team. Let us also mention that this is for first time the world cup is happening on winter. As always, we are very delight to applaud the presence of thirty two nations which are there to win the trophy. It seems that their first motivation in the tournament was to win every stage until the final victory.

Unfortunately, some of them have to leave all a long the way, and let the trophy to the team that it will belong to, and then fair play is one of the fundamental rule of the game.

Above all, what we can observe of the keen eye, is the every coach's responsibility to succeed the team with an altogether different line of work. We also quickly resolve to understand the heavy task of every team leader; their job is to target the victory. Indeed, these folks are so special and we give them luck that lives up to their devoutness, and heroic deeds to achieve their goals. And so, our thoughts indistinctly go out as a small gesture of personal appreciation for all the players in every team.?

It is also very amazing, as it becomes a global tradition since nations had rapidly became a kind of extended family with the encouragement of a number of supporters assisting the world cup tournament. At this point, we definitely understand that the world cup tournament is one of the way that unites nations by a simple link of soccer's tournament. Then we?greatly applaud FIFA members for the hard work and determination they do, to make every time the world cup possible, especially this edition of 2022.

Honestly the world cup reminds us that we really are one in this together. please let go off hate, and put some differences aside, whether in terms of race, culture, economic or political.?We suggest all continents to look at each other with the eyes of tolerance, because it's time to think of being definitely together and make the world a place of global harmony as we are one family.

One Time

There are so many crucial things that connect us together, and it's difficult for one another to simultaneously catch our impression. Here is one that?really links us by surprise: the time.?Time can do so much, it can impact societies by different levels, it can build, it can ruin, and it can unit nations that were once in war. And how extraordinary time is, and provided common values, duty and honor that made a people and a nation great.

Time is a fundamental concept conceived as an infinite environment in which events follow one another: Situating a story in time. Uninterrupted movement by which the present becomes the past, often considered as a force acting on the world, on beings.

What we mostly want to figure out here, is one time zone for one world, because of, one world should have one chronology, one calendar, one clock?and one time zone.?This suggestion has been once made by Michael Pinder; old president of the Britain-based organization. His purpose has been directly aiming the United nations to change the way we keep track on time. For him we need to fix the time, make it one?for every area of the globe to solve the problem of different time zones and leap year.

Leap Year Phenomenon

By definition leap year, is the phenomenon of a forced connection between days and years. But calendar itself measures whole days of?the year. A leap year mathematically contains a fraction more than 365 days. Leap years and more recently "leap seconds," take up the cosmic slack. And without them, we really could see January in June and vice versa for all inclined months.

Peter Andrews who was one of the Royal Green-which Observatory explained that?leap years have been part of the calendar since 46 B.C., when Julius Caesar headquartered the roman empire. Then Julius Caesar?has decreed a year to 365 1/4, then he was off by about 11 minutes. The 11 minutes may not seem important when the change is occurred, but over hundreds of years the difference become obvious to be managed at priori.

St. Venerable Bede, an Anglo-Saxon monk?is credited with being the first to spot the error of Julius Caesar. In 730 he calculated that the Julian year named after Julius Caesar was 11 minutes and 14 seconds too long. But we know a normal year counts 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 46 seconds.?

The atlantes measured days and seasons with Stonehenge's calendar, this technic had mostly used by the Aztec civilization. They have perfectly mastered both track, solar and moon events with sufficient precision. They had exact ability to measure time by the position of the Sun, the days and also predict the change of seasons without any constraint.

For them every quarter of the sun has exactly the same number of days, making financial calculations simpler.

Slippage Issue

By the 16th century, calendar slippage posed a potential problem for the Catholic Church, because of, many of its holydays are keyed to Easter and Christmas, that was there that leap year started being felt. Easter's arrival?is determined by the vernal equinox, the instant the Sun is above the Earth's equator, as it appears to be moving from south to north. The slippage which amounts to one day every 128 years had become noticeable to almost everyone. "The effect," was to move the date of Easter closer to the date of Christmas."

In 1582 Pope Gregory XIII, the current name sake of the Gregorian Calendar, gets credit for the solution. To move Easter closer to the vernal equinox and the first day of spring, he removed 10 days from October. Though, Thursday October 4, was followed by Friday, October 15.

To keep the newly connected calendar on track, the leap-year rule was slightly modified. It was decided that the leap-year would be skipped in century years, unless the year was exactly divisible by 400. Thus, the year 1900 was not a leap year but 2000 was. The adjustment solved most, but not all, of the slippage problem. " The new error amounts to three days in 10,000 years said Andrews.

An additional complication has arisen since 16th century. As new technologies made time measurement more precise, it became increasingly clear that the gravitational tug of the Moon was exerting an ever-so-slight braking effect upon the rotation of the Earth, making the day slightly longer. The difference is small, about one-thousandth of a second over the course of the average American's life, but, as with Caesar's lost minutes, the difference adds up.

Time On Our Hands

Pinder who was written a book titled Time On Our Hands, doesn't argue against the need for these timing adjustments. It's the entire time keeping system him and fellow members want to trash. The WDTS's plan was to subdivide time the way the metric system divides space. Their year would consist of 36 and 10-day weeks. Their day would be divided into 1 million units called millitims.

Dividing days into a million units would complete the decimalization of all our common units. "We would have to throw out our clocks, but clocks are pretty cheap these days, Pinder explained.?

The WDTS proposal may seem radical, but Pinder insists the decimalization is something that the U.S. government agreed to in 1884, when it decided to divide the continent into four time zones.

Rather than wait for these odd seconds to accumulate, the world's official time-watchers which include the U.S. National Institute of Standard and Technology add an extra second to the year about every three years. The leap second or as some language purists insist on calling it, the leap-day debuted in June 1972. The most recent was added to the last minute of January 31,1996.

What's more, some of ideas proposed by the WDTS have already been successfully adopted. The Confederation of Independent States, Pinder points out, has 11 time zones, but trains connecting the countries that once comprised the Soviet Union run on Moscow time. In China, where the consolidation is more complete, all five time zones operate on Beijing time. And, of course, the U.S. military gets along fine with a single world time zone.

The killed of 2000

Pinder has stepped up his lobbying efforts, because he thinks the year 2000 was perfect time to make the change. If executed, it would occur exactly at the stroke of midnight on March 21, the vernal equinox naturally, which would become the (new) New year's Day. Before popping champagne corks, we would throw away our old calendars and clocks.?

The short name for the first new year would be abbreviated 000. Those who needed to know past dates with precision would use a long version. Our planet is 4.6 billion years old, so 2000 A.D. could become 4,600,002,000.

Both the long and short versions of the new calendar would replace the named months and days of the week with a 3-digit number. " In 2000 if you look at your office calendar, you may already see a small 3 digit number near the date," Pinder said. "The higgledy-piggledy Roman months and the mystic days of the week would obsolete, and the future February 29ths and Friday the 13ths would vanish.

Time-telling would change even more radically. Hours, minutes and seconds would be stricken from clock faces and digital readouts. Instead of reporting hours and minutes, our clocks would read in tims and millitims. Each millitim would last about 0.086 of what we now call a second. A millitim is a very small unit of time, "but well within the capabilities of our current watches." We need a universal time to fix different time zones for every continent indistinctly. Because of, an universal time or UTC is a time scale adopted as the basis of international civil time by the majority of countries around the globe. Every calendar has one major challenge that it must to overcome by leap year issues. Old calendars added leap year or leap second made up for additional hours by adding leap day at the end which constitutes major time change that we actually know and all governments need to think about having one time-zone for one world. This will be an important step to globalize the world in their efforts to make the world harmoniously become one. All countries have to work together on Leap Year and leap second, even though, we know some folks enjoy Leap Year and some others like Universal Time Coordinated which is formerly known as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT: Greenwich Mean Time) and Zulu Time (Z). This is the time at the prime meridian (0° longitude) given in hours and minutes on a 24-hour clock.
