High time
Meaning
The appropriate time (that something should be done).
Origin
From Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors.
ANTIPHOLUS OF SYRACUSE:
There's none but witches do inhabit here;
And therefore 'tis high time that I were hence.
She that doth call me husband, even my soul
Doth for a wife abhor. But her fair sister,
Possess'd with such a gentle sovereign grace,
Of such enchanting presence and discourse,
Hath almost made me traitor to myself:
But, lest myself be guilty to self-wrong,
I'll stop mine ears against the mermaid's song.

While widely reported as being an ancient Chinese curse, this phrase is likely to be of recent and western origin. It seems to be intended to at least sound Chinese in the 'Confucious he say' mould.
In some investigations in 1996 and later by Stephen DeLong the earliest reference he was able to find was 'U-Turn', a sci-fi short story by Duncan Munro (Eric Frank Russell),1950. It may be that Russell coined the phrase himself or he may have heard it elsewhere.
Quality time

Time Definition from Law Dictionaries & Glossaries
| The 'Lectric Law Library |
Time
The measure of duration., it is divided into years, months. days, hours, minutes, and seconds. It is also divided into day and night.
Time is frequently of the essence of contracts and crimes, and sometimes it is altogether immaterial.
Lapse of time alone is often presumptive evidence of facts which are otherwise unknown; an uninterrupted enjoyment of certain rights for twenty or twenty-one years, is evidence that the party enjoying them is legally entitled to them; after such a length of time, the law presumes payment of a bond or other specialty.
In the computation of time, it is laid down generally, that where the computation is to be made from an act done, the day when such act was done is included. But it will be excluded whenever such exclusion, will prevent a forfeiture. In general, one day is taken inclusively and the other exclusively.
pleading. The avertment of time is generally necessary in pleading; the rules are different, in different actions.
In personal actions, the pleadings must allege the time; that is, the day, month and year when each traversable fact occurred; and when there is occasion to mention a continuous act, the period of its duration ought to be shown. The necessity of laying a time extends to traversable facts only; time is generally considered immaterial, ana any time may be assigned to a given fact. This option, however, is subject to certain restrictions. 1st. Time should be laid under a videlicit, or the party pleading it will be required to, prove it strictly. 2d.

Where the time needs not to be truly stated, (as is generally the case,) it is subject to a rule of the same nature with one that applies to venues in transitory matters, namely, that the plea and subsequent pleadings should follow the day alleged in the writ or declaration; and if in these cases no time at all be laid, the omission is aided after verdict or judgment by confession or default, by operation of the statute of jeofails. But where, in the plea or subsequent pleadings, the time happens to be material, it must be alleged, and there the pleader may be allowed to depart from the day in the writ and declaration.
In real or mixed actions, there is no necessity for alleging any particular day in the declaration.
In criminal pleadings, it is requisite, generally, to show both the day and the year on which the offence was committed; but the indictment will be good, if the day and year can be collected from the whole statement, though they be not expressly averred. Although it be necessary that a day certain should be laid in the indictment, the prosecutor may give evidence, of an offence committed, on any other day, previous to the finding of the indictment. This rule, however, does not authorize the laying of a day subsequent to the trial.

The measure of duration., it is divided into years, months. days, hours, minutes, and seconds. It is also divided into day and night.
Time is frequently of the essence of contracts and crimes, and sometimes it is altogether immaterial.
Lapse of time alone is often presumptive evidence of facts which are otherwise unknown; an uninterrupted enjoyment of certain rights for twenty or twenty-one years, is evidence that the party enjoying them is legally entitled to them; after such a length of time, the law presumes payment of a bond or other specialty.
In the computation of time, it is laid down generally, that where the computation is to be made from an act done, the day when such act was done is included. But it will be excluded whenever such exclusion, will prevent a forfeiture. In general, one day is taken inclusively and the other exclusively.
pleading. The avertment of time is generally necessary in pleading; the rules are different, in different actions.
In personal actions, the pleadings must allege the time; that is, the day, month and year when each traversable fact occurred; and when there is occasion to mention a continuous act, the period of its duration ought to be shown. The necessity of laying a time extends to traversable facts only; time is generally considered immaterial, ana any time may be assigned to a given fact. This option, however, is subject to certain restrictions. 1st. Time should be laid under a videlicit, or the party pleading it will be required to, prove it strictly. 2d. The time laid should not be intrinsically impossible, or inconsistent with the fact to which it relates. 3d.

Time
A fundamental property of the universe. It indicates the direction in which energy will flow during a chemical reaction. For example, in thermodynamics heat will always flow from a hotter body to a cooler one. If it were to flow in the reverse direction, time would have to be travelling backwards. This is never observed to happen. Special relativity predicts that time passes at different rates depending upon the strength of the local gravitational field and the speed at which you are travelling. Despite these strange effects, time always flows forwards.

Time
Time Theosophy speaks of absolute undivided time or duration, and of manifested or divided time: the former as causal or noumenal, the latter as effectual or phenomenal, and therefore mayavi or illusional. "Time is only an illusion produced by the succession of our states of consciousness as we travel through eternal duration, and it does not exist where no consciousness exists in which the illusion can be produced; but 'lies asleep' " (SD 1:37). Duration is 'olam (occult or hid) in the Qabbalah, signifying duration in eternity or endless perpetuity. Among the Greeks it was called Chronos and even Kronos, and sometimes referred to as Saturn among the Latins; yet its occult or eternally secret activities during periods of manifestation were at times referred to in Hindu philosophic thought as Rudra-Siva, or occasionally as Vishnu.
Theosophy divides boundless duration into unconditionally eternal and universal time, and a conditioned or periodic or "broken" one (SD 1:62). One is the abstraction or noumenon of infinite endless time (Kala); the other its phenomenon, appearing periodically. The symbol of causal or relatively boundless time, so far as the universe is concerned, is often given as a circle, which mathematically is a beginningless and endless line. A spiral line represents time returning upon itself in cycles, and yet transcending itself at each cyclic sweep, devouring its children, as Kronos among the Greeks is said to do; and the serpent with its tail in its mouth often stands for the same ideas.

TIME
[A23/B37] Generally, Kant defines time as "a determinate form...in which alone the intuition of inner states is possible", adding "and everything which belongs to inner states is therefore represented in relations of time....space and time are such that they belong only to the form of intuition, and therefore to the subjective constitution of our mind, apart from which they could not be ascribed to anything whatsoever". Kant asserts that time is an a priori intuition (a form of sensibility), that it is transcendentally ideal, that it is a condition to which all appearances must conform, that temporal determination depends on a spatial permanent, that we represent time by means of space, that time is necessary for the application of the categories, and that time is meaningless apart from application to objects.

Time
There are two distinct views on the meaning of the word time.
One view is that time is part of the fundamental structure of the universe, a dimension in which events occur in sequence, and time itself is something that can be measured. This is the realist's view, to which Sir Isaac Newton subscribed, and hence is sometimes referred to as Newtonian time.
A contrasting view is that time is part of the fundamental human intellectual structure (together with space and number) within which we sequence events, quantify the duration of events and the intervals between them, and compare the motions of objects. In this second view, time does not refer to any kind of entity that "flows", that objects "move through", or that is a "container" for events. This view is in the tradition of Gottfried Leibniz and Immanuel Kant, in which time, rather than being an objective thing to be measured, is part of the measuring system used by humans.

Time (computing)
In computer science and computer programming, system time represents a computer system's notion of the passing of time. In this sense, time also includes the passing of days on the calendar.
System time is measured by a system clock, which is typically implemented as a simple count of the number of ticks that have transpired since some arbitrary starting date, called the epoch. For example, Unix and POSIX-compliant systems encode system time as the number of seconds elapsed since the start of the epoch at 1970-01-01 00:00:00 Z. Microsoft Windows counts the number of 100-nanosecond ticks since 1601-01-01 00:00:00 Z as reckoned in the proleptic Gregorian calendar, but returns the current time to the nearest millisecond.

Time (magazine)
Time (whose trademark is capitalized TIME) is a weekly American newsmagazine, similar to Newsweek and U.S. News & World Report. A European edition (Time Europe, formerly known as Time Atlantic) is published from London. Time Europe covers the Middle East, Africa and, since 2003, Latin America. An Asian edition (Time Asia) is based in Hong Kong. Time publishes simultaneously in Canada, with separate advertising. The South Pacific edition, covering Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands, is based in Sydney. In some advertising campaigns, the magazine has suggested that through a backronym the letters TIME stand for "The International Magazine of Events."
