the universe is like a giant clock. out use mathematics to turn the crank forward and predict how things will be. the observations have established that is a very accurate way of did not things when applied to everyday objects or to the men's motion or to rock that you throw in and tells you what happened. you do the observation and tests. and people are being asked to probe the microscopic realm that whole structure begins to fall apart. >> different universe. >> simply different realm. let's not use the word universe into many different ways. a completely different environment. in some ways, why should the laws that work on everyday skills also work on tiny scales? it turns out that they don't. the laws of quantum physics and the idea of quantum physics is that you can only predict the likelihood, the probability of one outcome or another. so if i'm not dealing with iraq or the moon, but an electron and i want to know where it is the quantum loss say there may be a 50% chance that it is over here and a 50% chance that

a multi-verse of universe that's right and now we have the large hadron collider outside you gave us was a lead that hopefully will test this theory maybe there are other universes and other dimensions. maybe here the. a friend of mine who started out in physics and ended up in metaphysics. suggested matter essentially you know that i as an einstein equals mc squared that the amount of energy in matter is is you know math and is the speed of light squared and times the mass and and that if you could then define that energy and look at the most subtle particle of energy that at that level the universe would be solid or at least would be filled and that that most subtle energy might be something that we could describe as raw of consciousness you use the word love just a moment ago is that anything close to what you were talking about. well in the sense that we think the tiniest bit of space time that tiniest bit of matter is cried by vibrating strings strings make music and the music of these strings is the it perfectly with the realization that all of the particles we see in nature are

on finishing einstein's project of creating a unified theory to explain how everything works in the universe and he is this the co-founder of something called string field theory which will get into later his latest book is called physics of the future a science will shape human destiny and our daily lives by the year twenty two hundred pleased to welcome from los angeles a man on the cutting edge of science. writer who welcome back to be on the show thank you very much i'm very very glad to have you with us i understand that when you were eight years old you had an epiphany that's there or did you on this. that's right some people remember the instant that princess diana died i remember the instant when albert einstein die it was in all the newspapers everyone was talking about the fact that he could not finish his greatest work it was to be the theory of everything and the equation of one inch long which would allow was too cold to read the mind of god one theory which would describe everything from the big bang formation of the stars the galaxy people maybe even love and i said to myself

the big bang. i don't know about other universes. so if you start here, this space was created with the big bang. >> so if you go onto a rocket ship and you head out into space and you keep on going, what happens? [laughter] >> you know this, you can't. >> what do you mean you can't? do you hit an end? >> no. brian, you know pretty well if you aim a telescope in this direction at night and you aim a telescope in that direction at night, the two parts -- the farthest galaxies you can see, they're receding at the speed faster than light because of the expansion of the universe. you don't even need acceleration. so that part doesn't talk with this part. how are you ever going to get from one part to another with a spaceship that travels less than the speed of light? >> so if you get in that ship, what will happen? >> i don't know what will happen. i'd be lost in space. [laughter] >> you know, it's a mathematical question which would be what's the overall to poll? >> that's where i disagree with you. i think toe polly exists in a mathemat

is the property line of the university. i had the understanding that it was that ankle. >> no, that is correct. that is the property line. >> the broken line is the line of the university. currently on the other side of the trees, there is a short fence or a 10-foot fence. this is the property line. >> that fence right there, that looks to me like that is probably 10 feet. >> i cannot see it. >> you might be able to see that better in person. >> i thought we would follow up on the settlement or the status is on that. >> again, there was a conditional use granted for the interior campus a couple of months ago. there was a settlement entered into which has committed up to $1.2 million. they have presented a plan for various improvements and a range of different alternatives, some of which would be pretty radical. golden gate would be a one-way street. others would consider closing of some of the streets. there is a lot of discussion yet to be tagged. there is a wide range of alternatives which has been presented to the full ne

i traveled here knowing that the university of phoenix is wary of the media. but they had agreed to some interviews. then, at the last minute, they backed out and gave no explanation. instead, i spoke to former phoenix executives. >> it was not by accident that this university developed in the southwest and the west. that's where people go to reinvent themselves. and that's where john reinvented the university. >> smith: why did the university need to be reinvented? what's wrong with the way that universities were running up until the time that john sperling came along with phoenix? >> john saw the constraints of most... most college professors. you know, anybody who's got any new ideas in college are quickly beaten down. the academy hasn't had a real change in how it worked for almost 500 years. >> smith: mark defusco arrived at the university of phoenix in the mid-'90s with a phd in education from usc, but he quickly embraced the phoenix model. >> phoenix, people go to school all year round. we started classes every five weeks. and instead of starting classe

that's bigger let me call the plank length and expanding is actually equivalent to a universe that's smaller than the plank length and contracting that's the 1 over r world that you're talking about. i wouldn't use the word doppelganger or image to describe these two realms. there's really distinct mathematical descriptions of the same reality. it's really just two different ways of looking at the same thing but looking differently. how would the cosmology and the singularity look in this picture, yes, right here at harvard, two cosmologists, they studied cosmology in the context of the universe that has that one of the symmetry and they did find something along the lines of what you're suggesting. so what is the singularity? so if you run the universe back in time it gets denser denser way back in the density source to infinity. they found that in this setup when the universe gets smaller than a plank length that's about a tenth minus 35 meters. when it gets smaller than the plank length, the temperatures leveled out and as the universe gets smaller the temperature starts to

it went bonkers. >> bergman: then, the universities and the colleges jumped in. they offered to put the nike logo on all their teams. then, other major corporations got into the act. and suddenly, college sports was on its way to becoming a multibillion-dollar business. >> sonny was the innovator here. he's the guy who promoted it to nike first, and then adidas and reebok. did very well financially for himself. interestingly, along the way, he would criticize what he was doing. >> the people i represent, and the people i have represented, have made billions and billions of dollars off the industry. >> he would say, "look, i know this is a rotten business. i know this is dirty. i know this is hypocritical." >> i was part of that darn thing. i'm still part of it. >> you're still part of it. >> but it's wrong. there aren't any residuals for these kids. you keep selling them, and selling them, and selling them, and they've got nothing, nothing and nothing. >> bergman: four years ago, vaccaro decided that his years of complaining weren't changing anything. so he quit

who moved from michigan to california to get a free college education has to ration at the university of california system statewide was effectively free as a result the american workforce particularly in california and silicon valley became the most intelligent inventive and competitive in all the world then something changed. as soon as he became governor of california ronald reagan ended free education across the state referring to the university of california students particularly those preferred protesting again against the vietnam war he called them brats freaks and cowardly fascists the end of protests he said quote if it takes a bloodbath was it get it over with no war appeasement and next week when students were killed at kent state reagan said that anybody who voted him on his need for the bloodbath was quote an erotic after killing off free college education in california as president reagan cut the federal education budget helping kids through school from twelve to six percent of the federal budget and in the process paved the way for profit making businesses to get into t

why isn't the university of michigan saying i'll take the lead. google, if you want to help, donate stuff, but it gave google the license to take control of the situation to dictate the priorities, to lie out the terms of the exchange, and through all of that troubled me in the process. we're at the situation now where the settlement might be approved. if so, google turns from what described originally as a library-based project into a bookstore, the world's largest used book bookstore and takes on a huge explicit store. they could sell a lot of books through the google book search project, so there are so many things yet to be answered about thisment i'm not willing to predict because if the judge rejects the settlement, throws everything back to court, creates a meltdown, and that endangers the copy right system and how we use the web today and endawrnlg the very core mission of search engines if google loses the suit as i think it would, and that's dainches to me. if -- dangerous to me. if the judge approves the settlement, there's still big pr

the mission statement of harvard university isn't that audacious; right? to educate the young men of doing one to be clergy or something, that's originally what it was meant to be. really, that's a stunning mission statement. we are probably all more familiar with the informal model. don't be evil. i'm thinking what that means. every time google does something that causes friction, it sends it's car to the streets of europe taking pictures without permission. in europe, people are sensible about putting a picture in the database. they had bad experiences with database. they didn't call them database, but people keeping too much about people and using it to pull them out of neighborhood and houses. there's a little bit of sensitivity in europe about privacy, we don't necessarily have that kind of level of concern in this country. we're a lot more trustworthy, if nothing else, private sector and major corporations. there's been a lot of conflict, a lot of tension, a lot of stress and friction over these sorts of things. in the united states, we've had a lot o

there are two important points on the threshold. each university will have to spend 900 pounds per place on access requirements. the second point is the office of access will decide whether or not they can go to the 9000 threshold. very tough rules have been published and placed in the house for people to see. in terms of the additional revenue and money that going to higher education, he is right. because of the system with introducing, we will be spending more overall on universities. the key is that because of the reductions in spending, we're having to make elsewhere, this is the only way to guarantee we have well-funded universities, well-stocked libraries, well- paid lecturers, and good universities to take on the world. >> i was asking a simple question. where will the money come from, given that they have miscalculated the level of tuition fees? universities are worried that the prime minister does not think that and 80% cut in the teaching budget is enough and will come back for more. let me turn to another area of public services the gove

>> it is worth reminding the house that university tuition fees were first introduced by the labour party are two important points about this threshold. first, each university will have to spend £900 per place on access requirements. secondly, the office for fair access will decide whether universities can go to that £9,000 threshold. very tough rules have been published and placed in the house for people to see. on the additional money that will go into higher education, the right hon. gentleman is absolutely right, because of the system we are introducing, we will be spending more overall on universities. however, the key thing is that because of the reductions in spending we are having to make elsewhere, this is the only way to guarantee that we have well- funded universities, well- stocked libraries, well-paid lecturers and good universities to take on the world. >> i asked a very simple question -- where will the money come from, given that the government have miscalculated the level of tuition fees? universities up and down the country are worried that the prime minister does not th

obviously, it is a monument to the university of california that has played such a leading role, and of you who supported it in all sorts of ways the innovation on this great campus. such potent collaboration's, as we see evidence here, are a landmark of our history, and if you want an example, i would point to the founding of the university of california nearly 150 years ago. began, like this building, with an outside stream and a few californians willing to give it a shot. i would say with 10 campuses and five medical centers and all the steps this great public university system has achieved, that it has really turned out very well. in conclusion, i would like to extend my sincere gratitude to the dolbys and rhodes. the legend on the state capital says, "bring the men to match my mountain." you certainly are those men, and before i get into trouble -- sue -- and women.

and he does not give the universal answer to it. his answer is historically defined by limits of the existing system. we know he took this question seriously because he delayed the completion of "the wealth of nations" by at least 18 months while he attended to it. so again, the question, i read smith as being essentially beginning, middle and end, a pragmatist in the matter of regulation. but always, always accompanied, and as jim was saying, by an extraordinary, a huge sensitivity to the way in which interest groups operated in relation to parliament, to government, the civil service and to the ministry. >> may i say one other thing? i guess this may be a difference between us. i think smith would be agnostic with respect to a great deal. so what you want to see what what regulations would talk about and what effects. but he's not neutral. i think his reading of human history is that government intervention tends to reduce productivity, it tends to have various kinds of unintended bad consequences. so i think much of the argument o
