Yet Johnson has a serious side as well, and he openly used his forum – the microphone – to appeal to the audience without being preachy. His "Save Trestles" shirt was a silent protest against the proposed extension of the 241 Toll Road, and he also promoted the Peace Alliance. He dedicated "Monsoon," with its lyric "all of life is one drop of the ocean," to the Surfrider Foundation...

Everybody's here with me (we) Got no camera to see Don't think I'm not all in this world The camera won't let me go And the verdict doesn't love our soul The digital won't let me go
Yeah yeah yeah I'll pay (yeah yeah yeah) When tomorrow Tomorrow comes today
Stereo I want it on It's taken me far too long Don't think I'm not all in this world I don't think I'll be here too long I don't think I'll be here too long I don't think I'll be here too long

Well I was sitting, waiting, wishing You believed in superstitions Then maybe you'd see the signs
The Lord knows that this world is cruel I ain't the Lord, no I'm just a fool Learning lovin' somebody don't make them love you
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you Must I always be playing, playing your fool
I sang your songs, I danced your dance I gave your friends all a chance But putting up with them Wasn't worth never having you
Maybe you've been through this before But it's my first time so please ignore The next few lines cause they're directed at you
I can't always be waiting, waiting on you I can't always be playing, playing your fool
I keep playing your part But it's not my scene Want this plot to twist I've had enough mystery Keep building it up Then shooting me down But I'm already down
Just wait a minute Just sitting, waiting Just wait a minute Just sitting, waiting
Well, if I was in your position I'd put down all my ammunition I'd wonder why'd it taken me so long
But Lord knows that I'm not you And if I was, I wouldn't be so cruel Cause waitin' on love aint so easy to do
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you Must I always be playing, playing your fool
No, I can't I always be waiting, waiting on you I can't always be playing, playing your fool... .

Quantum physics is a branch of science that deals with discrete, indivisible units of energy called quanta as described by the Quantum Theory. There are five main ideas represented in Quantum Theory:
1. Energy is not continuous, but comes in small but discrete units. 2. The elementary particles behave both like particles and like waves. 3. The movement of these particles is inherently random. 4. It is physically impossible to know both the position and the momentum of a particle at the same time. The more precisely one is known, the less precise the measurement of the other is. 5. The atomic world is nothing like the world we live in.
While at a glance this may seem like just another strange theory, it contains many clues as to the fundamental nature of the universe and is more important then even relativity in the grand scheme of things (if any one thing at that level could be said to be more important then anything else). Furthermore, it describes the nature of the universe as being much different then the world we see. As Niels Bohr said, Anyone who is not shocked by quantum theory has not understood it... .
Pioneer Michio Kaku goes on an extraordinary exploration of the world in search of time.
He discovers our sense of time passing and the clocks that drive our bodies. He reveals the forces of time that make and destroy us in a lifetime. He journeys to some of the Earth's most spectacular geological sites to look for clues to the extraordinary depths of time at a planetary level. Finally, he takes us on a cosmic journey in search of the beginning (and the end) of time itself... .
The trouble with time started a century ago, when Einstein’s special and general theories of relativity demolished the idea of time as a universal constant. One consequence is that the past, present, and future are not absolutes. Einstein’s theories also opened a rift in physics because the rules of general relativity (which describe gravity and the large-scale structure of the cosmos) seem incompatible with those of quantum physics (which govern the realm of the tiny). Some four decades ago, the renowned physicist John Wheeler, then at Princeton, and the late Bryce DeWitt, then at the University of North Carolina, developed an extraordinary equation that provides a possible framework for unifying relativity and quantum mechanics. But the Wheeler-DeWitt equation has always been controversial, in part because it adds yet another, even more baffling twist to our understanding of time... .
STONEHENGE, England—Druids, drummers, pagans and partygoers welcomed the sun Thursday as it rose above the prehistoric monument of Stonehenge on the longest day of the year—the summer solstice.
Clad in antlers, black cloaks and oak leaves, a group of druids cheered and danced at the Heel stone—a twisted, pockmarked pillar at the edge of Stonehenge.
"Happy solstice!" said Laura Tungate, a 26-year-old financial adviser from Newcastle, who wore a giant rainbow sweater and offered hugs to smiling passers-by... .
1784 - Benjamin Franklin is thought to have come up with the idea for daylight-saving time. In a whimsical letter to a French journal, he said that Parisians could save thousands of francs a years by waking up earlier during the summer because it would prevent them from having to buy so many candles to light the evening hours.
1918 - The U.S. first adopts daylight-saving time, in the same act that created standard time zones, in an effort to save energy during World War I. It didn't prove popular, and, as a result, it was repealed the following year.
1942 - President Franklin D. Roosevelt instituted "war-time," a year-round daylight-saving time to save energy during World War II. After the year-round shift ended in 1945, many states adopted their own summer time changes.
1966 - Congress established a national pattern for summer time changes with the Uniform Time Act. The act came in response from the transportation industry, which demanded consistency across time zones. The U.S. Department of Transportation now oversees time changes in the United States.
1973 - An oil embargo by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries led Congress to enact a test period of year-round daylight-saving time in 1974 and 1975. The test period was controversial; it ended after complaints that the dark winter mornings endangered children traveling to school. The U.S. returned to summer daylight-saving time in 1975.
1986 - The Federal law is amended to start daylight-saving time on the first Sunday in April, beginning in 1987. The ending date of daylight-saving time was never changed, and remained the last Sunday in October through 2006.
2005 - On August 8, President Bush signs the Energy Policy Act of 2005 into law. Part of the act will extend daylight-saving time starting in 2007, from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November.
2007 - Daylight-saving time begins this Sunday, March 11 and ends on Sunday, November 4... .
