Double click the clock.
On the Internet Time tab change it to
time.nist.gov
 
Your date seems to be incorrect. Try changing your date to todays date.
 
Government time servers are not always in service, here is a
list

http://www.boulder.nist.gov/timefreq/service/time-servers.html

There are some nice third party time applications, AnalogX
has a free Atomic Time Sync at his site
www.analogx.com

And for a modest fee www.atomtime.com has AtomTime which is
a little fancier.

Either lets you update the time as often as you want, even
every few minutes.

rule and allow
