Si la majorité des montres que nous portons aujourd'hui sont à quartz, ce n'est pas un hasard. C'est le résultat d'une petite révolution scientifique et industrielle qui remonte à la fin des années 1960. Pour comprendre pourquoi cette technologie s'est imposée, il faut d'abord comprendre comment elle fonctionne.Le cœur d'une montre à quartz est… un minuscule cristal de quartz. Ce minéral possède une propriété physique remarquable appelée piézoélectricité. Découverte au XIXᵉ siècle par les frères Curie, elle signifie qu'un cristal de quartz se déforme légèrement lorsqu'on lui applique une tension électrique. Mais le phénomène fonctionne aussi dans l'autre sens : lorsqu'il se déforme, le cristal produit un courant électrique.Dans une montre, on exploite ce phénomène d'une manière très précise. Une petite pile envoie un courant électrique dans le cristal de quartz taillé d'une forme spécifique. Sous l'effet de ce courant, le cristal se met à vibrer extrêmement régulièrement, exactement 32 768 fois par seconde. Cette fréquence est très stable car elle dépend des propriétés physiques du cristal.Un circuit électronique compte ensuite ces vibrations et les divise jusqu'à obtenir une impulsion par seconde. Cette impulsion fait avancer les aiguilles de la montre ou met à jour l'affichage numérique. Le temps est donc mesuré grâce à la régularité des oscillations du quartz.C'est précisément là que réside le grand avantage du quartz : sa précision. Une montre mécanique classique — fonctionnant avec des ressorts et des engrenages — peut dériver de plusieurs secondes par jour. Une montre à quartz, elle, ne dérive généralement que de quelques secondes par mois. Elle est donc beaucoup plus fiable.Le quartz présente aussi d'autres avantages décisifs. D'abord, il nécessite beaucoup moins de pièces mécaniques. Les montres sont donc plus simples à produire, moins coûteuses et moins sensibles aux chocs ou à l'usure. Ensuite, elles demandent très peu d'entretien : il suffit généralement de remplacer la pile tous les deux ou trois ans.Cette combinaison de précision, de robustesse et de faible coût explique pourquoi les montres à quartz ont conquis le monde. Lorsque la première montre à quartz commercialisée — la Seiko Astron, en 1969 — est apparue, elle était très chère. Mais la technologie s'est rapidement démocratisée. Dans les années 1970 et 1980, elle a provoqué ce que l'on appelle parfois la “crise du quartz” dans l'industrie horlogère traditionnelle.Aujourd'hui, les montres mécaniques existent toujours et restent très appréciées, notamment pour leur savoir-faire et leur dimension artisanale. Mais pour mesurer le temps avec précision au quotidien, la solution la plus simple, la plus fiable et la plus économique reste… un petit cristal de quartz qui vibre des dizaines de milliers de fois par seconde.

Peacewarts: Dept. of Chronicled Courage – The Architecture of the Headline (Class 6) We examine the role of modern media in the erasure of peace initiatives. By analyzing underreported crises in Sudan and Chad, and "invisible" protocols like the WHO's Health for Peace, we learn how to spot the biases that frame our "reality." Homework: Look upone of the following: The "Health for Peace" initiative by the WHO or the current status of the Sudan peace talks. Write down one questionabout any of this episode's topics. If you don't have a question, write “no question.” Optional: Find a major news website and count the headlines. How many are about a "collision" (conflict) and how many are about a "cohesion" (cooperation)? If you were the editor, what "boring" act of peace from your own community would you put on the front page? Learning Topics: The Conflict Bias: Why the media prioritizes "collisions" over "cohesion;” The Sudan/Chad Case Study: How geopolitical influence dictates media visibility; The WHO Health for Peace Initiative: Understanding health as a peacebuilding bridge; New Diplomacy: The roles of Qatar, Türkiye, and other mediators in non-binary conflicts; The Architecture of News: Understanding peace as an organic, slow-moving process.

This is a fantastic episode as both Barbara Perez Marquez and Sonia Liao chat with Jimmy about The Curie Society: Game of Code. This is a phenomenal graphic novel series (Game of Code is the 3rd volume) about "a team of young women recruited by an elite secret society—originally founded by Marie Curie—with the mission of supporting the most brilliant female scientists in the world." Barbara joins the creative team to script this 3rd volume and it's great to hear her and Sonia discuss their work on the book, what it means to them, and the unique challenges of working on a graphic novel series like this. Sonia discusses getting a scene set at a convention just right and Barbara talks about how she makes sure she stays true to the characters' voices that have already been established in the first 2 books of the series. This is a wonderful conversation for fans of the series and fellow creators.

Peacewarts: Dept. of Chronicled Courage - Women as Treaty Architects (Class 5) We study the 1915 International Congress of Women as a masterclass in parallel diplomacy. We reframe Jane Addams and her colleagues as intellectual engineers who drafted the blueprints for modern international governance while the world was at war. Homework: Look upthe 1915 International Congress of Women or the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF) and find one of their 20 points that you think is still relevant today. Write down one questionabout any of this episode's topics. If you don't have a question, write “no question.” Optional: Think about a project or a conflict in your own life. Are you currently acting as a "moral figurehead" (just saying what's right) or an "architect" (designing a way for it to actually work)? What would it look like to move from a "protest" mindset to a "proposal" mindset? Learning Topics: The 1915 Hague Congress as a diplomatic intervention, not a protest; The 20-Point Peace Program: Designing structural durability in international law; Jane Addams as a Systems Thinker: Translating civil ethics into hard policy; The political erasure of women from the Versailles negotiations; Intellectual Courage: The labor of planning peace in the midst of active conflict.

In this episode of Biographers in Conversation, Dava Sobel chats with Dr Gabriella Kelly-Davies about The Elements of Marie Curie: How the Glow of Radium Lit a Path for Women in Science. Here's what you'll discover in this episode: Dava Sobel used the periodic table as the structural framework, with each chapter keyed to an element that represents a period of Curie's life or scientific work. Dava selected the title The Elements of Marie Curie to emphasise how the chemical elements shaped her discoveries and personal life. Dava wrote in the first person as Marie Curie, translating her letters into English though preserving her voice and perspective to create an immersive narrative. Dava traced the path for women in science by highlighting generations of women mentored by Curie, showing her enduring influence beyond her own research. Dava created a chemical chronology that parallels scientific discoveries with biography, such as linking radium extraction to gruelling lab work. Dava ended with ‘Carbon' to reflect on Curie's legacy and the organic, interconnected nature of her scientific and humanitarian impact.

Peacewarts: Dept. of Chronicled Courage - The Man Who Said No (Class 4) We study Vasili Arkhipov and his refusal to launch a nuclear torpedo during the Cuban Missile Crisis. We explore how a shift in frame of mind—from combat to communication—can break the physics of escalation and serve as a manual override for broken systems. Homework: Look upthe K-19 submarine accident (1961) or the Cuban Missile Crisis depth charge signals to understand the high-stress environment Arkhipov was working in. Write down one questionabout any of this episode's topics. If you don't have a question, write “no question.” Optional: Think of a time you were in a "heated" situation—an argument or a group decision. Looking back, was there a different way to "frame" the problem that didn't involve a winner and a loser? How would that change of mind have altered the outcome? Learning Topics: The structural pressure of the B-59 submarine launch protocol; Reframing the Crisis: Moving from a war-mindset to a peace-focus; Arkhipov's background: Why the K-19 experience informed his courage; Asymmetry of Restraint: Why refusal is a disciplined, active military act; The pattern of restraint: Petrov and the Norwegian Rocket incident.

We deconstruct the myth of inevitable war by analyzing the "recorded logic" that ended a century of conflict between the Egyptian and Hittite Empires. By shifting our focus from the chariot battle to the scriptorium, we explore how peace functions as social infrastructure and a primary technology for solving problems that violence cannot touch. Homework: Look up the Treaty of Kadesh and find one of the specific clauses (like the rule about refugees or mutual aid) that sounds surprisingly modern to you. Write down one question about any of this episode's topics. If you don't have a question, write "no question." Optional: Journal. Think about a relationship in your life where you have reached a stalemate. If you were to write a non-aggression clause for that relationship today, what is the one specific "territory" or topic you would both agree never to invade again? Learning Topics: Peace as Social Infrastructure; The Treaty of Kadesh (1259 BC); The Battle of Kadesh Stalemate; Reciprocal Diplomacy; The Non-Aggression Clause; The Mutual Assistance Clause; The Erasure of Human Competence; Version 1.0 of Recorded Logic.

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== DEVOCIÓN MATUTINA PARA MENORES 2026“HEROES Y VILLANOS”Narrado por: Tatania DanielaDesde: Juliaca, PerúUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist Church28 de FebreroLa heroína científica«Ve y reúne a todos los judíos de Susa, para que ayunen por mí. Que no coman ni beban nada durante tres días y tres noches. Mis criadas y yo haremos también lo mismo, y después iré a ver al rey, aunque eso vaya contra la ley. Y si me matan, que me maten» (Ester 4: 16).Marie Curie, una mujer cuyo brillo rivalizaba el resplandor de las estrellas, dejó una huella imborrable en mundo de la ciencia. Con su determinación y genio científico desafió las normas de su tiempo y revolucionó nuestra comprensión de la radioactividad y de los elementos químicos.Nacida en Varsovia, Polonia, en 1867, Marie Curie demostró desde joven una pasión por el conocimiento y un deseo insaciable de explorar los misterios del universo. A pesar de los obstáculos y de los prejuicios que enfrentó por ser mujer, Marie perseveró en su búsqueda de la verdad y se convirtió en la primera dama en recibir un Premio Nobel, y la única en recibirlo en dos campos científicos diferentes: la Física y la Química.Su trabajo pionero en el campo de la radioactividad, junto con su esposo Pierre Curie, llevó al descubrimiento de dos elementos químicos nuevos: el polonio y el radio. Estos hallazgos transformaron la ciencia y sentaron las bases para la medicina nuclear y la terapia contra el cáncer, salvando innumerables vidas en todo el mundo.Pero más allá de sus logros científicos, lo que realmente destaca de Marie Curie es su perseverancia frente a la adversidad. A pesar de enfrentar obstáculos debido a su género y su origen humilde, nunca renunció a su sueño de contribuir al avance del conocimiento científico.Un ejemplo notable de esto fue su trabajo durante la Primera Guerra Mundial, donde lideró la instalación de unidades móviles de rayos X para diagnosticar a soldados heridos en el frente. A pesar del peligro y las dificultades, Marie y su equipo salvaron incontables vidas y cambiaron para siempre el curso de la medicina de emergencia.Curie murió el 4 de julio de 1934, a los 66 años, debido a una anemia aplásica. Si bien no hay una evidencia concluyente de que su muerte estuviera directamente relacionada con la exposición a la radioactividad, es ampliamente aceptado que su trabajo con materiales radioactivos contribuyó a su deterioro de salud.Así son los héroes. Sus ideales los hacen nadar contra corriente y, si es necesario, sacrificar su vida. Esa misma lógica usó la reina Ester. Sabía que ir delante del rey Asuero podría significar la muerte, pero las vidas de sus connacionales fueron más preciosas que la suya.

Peacewarts: Dept. of Chronicled Courage - The Myth of Inevitable War (Class 2) We deconstruct the lie that humans are biologically destined for combat. By examining archaeological records and the "Long Peace" of 1815-1914, we prove that peace is a deliberate, high-maintenance labor and the actual "default" of human history. Homework: Look up the Aaland Islands dispute of 1921 or the Concert of Europe and find one diplomatic tool they used to prevent a fight. Write down one question about any of this episode's topics. If you don't have a question, write “no question.” Optional: Think about your own "natural" reactions to conflict. When have you felt "hard-wired" to argue, but chose to pause instead? Was that pause "passive," or was it an act of labor? Learning Topics: The 100-Year Peace (1815–1914) and "Congress Diplomacy;” The Aaland Islands Dispute (1921) as a model for cancelled conflict; Archaeological evidence: Challenging the 2% violence myth; The political purpose of the "Inevitability Myth;” Human nature as a capacity for choice, not a destiny for violence.

Peacewarts: Chronicled Courage 101 - Peace Erasure & Jeannette Rankin (Class 1) We transition into the archives to study history as a lineage of persistence. This class defines "Erasure" as a political tool and examines the Jeannette Rankin Brigade (1968) and JFK's "Strategy of Peace" as case studies in recovered memory and the "Great Refusal." Homework: Look upthe Jeannette Rankin Brigade or the 1963 American University Speech and find one detail that isn't typically taught in a standard history class. Write down one questionabout any of this episode's topics. If you don't have a question, write "no question." Optional: Think of a time you were told something was "inevitable." Looking back, was it actually inevitable, or was there a path of refusal you didn't see at the time? Learning Topics: The Mission of the Hall of Records; Erasure vs. Realism: How curated memory shapes our expectations of conflict; The Jeannette Rankin Brigade (1968): A 50-year bridge of anti-war activism; The Great Refusal: Rankin's votes in 1917 and 1941 as principled alternatives to the military-industrial complex; The Burial of Traditional Womanhood: The radical shift in 1968 activism.

Peacewarts: Living Roots 101 - Subsistence as Dignity (Class 14) We conclude our journey in the Department of Living Roots by reframing subsistence not as a state of poverty, but as the highest form of dignity and freedom. We explore how dependency has been used as a weapon through the get big or get out era and the cultural construction of peasant shame. By examining the resilience of Cuba's organopónicos and the concept of time sovereignty, we establish that food autonomy is the ultimate form of disarmament, removing the primary levers of coercion and violence from society. Homework: Look back at your notes from the last 14 classes. Whichliving root felt the most important to your own sense of security? Write down one question about any of this episode's topics. If you don't have a question, write "no question."

Peacewarts: Dept. of Living Roots - The Lie of Independence (Class 13) We deconstruct the myth of self-sufficiency. Through the "Cowboy Myth," the global standards of the ICAO, the industrial success of Mondragon, and the history of the Siege of Sarajevo (1992-1996), we learn why structural interdependence is more durable than isolation. Homework: Look up the Mondragon Corporation's list of products or the Haudenosaunee clans to see how they distribute roles. Write down one question about any of this episode's topics.

Peacewarts: Living Roots 101 - Water Rights & Watersheds (Class 8) We explore the "Functional Peace" of the Indus Waters Treaty. Despite three wars, India and Pakistan have maintained this water agreement for over 60 years. This class examines how shared water management creates a "biological floor" that can survive even the most intense political hostilities, and asks: if we can cooperate to share water, why can't we cooperate to share the world?

Peacewarts: Living Roots 101 - The Victory Garden Myth (Class 5) We reframe the "Victory Garden" as a blueprint for community independence rather than a tool of war. We look at the staggering 40% production levels of 1943 and the Russian Dacha system—where 3% of the land produces over 80% of the vegetables. We discuss how nutritional sovereignty is a fundamental requirement for a peaceful society and a direct form of disarmament. Homework: Look up the"Russian Dacha movement" and find one statistic on how much food these small plots produce compared to industrial farms. Write down one question you have about home gardens or any topic in this episode.

Peacewarts: Living Roots 101 - The Scarcity Script (Class 3) Episode Summary: We explore how the concept of "shortage" is used as a psychological and political tool to justify war. This class examines the history of the Enclosure Acts, the chemical dependency of modern agriculture, and the "Food as a Weapon" strategy to reveal how scarcity is often a manufactured policy rather than a biological reality. Homework: Look up "The Enclosure Acts" and read a summary of how they changed the "Common Land" system in England. Write down one question about any of this episode's topics. If you don't have a question, write “no question.” Optional:Journal for five minutes about a "shortage" you see in the news today (gas, food, or water).

Marie Curie is the most famous woman in the history of science. She coined the term “radioactivity” and traveled the world to share its secrets. Her story is told in a new book by acclaimed Pulitzer Prize finalist Dava Sobel, but, along the way, she tells the stories of other women who trained in Curie's lab who would pursue their own scientific careers.

On today's episode, Kara welcomes Sarah Moret, Founder and CEO of Curie — the clean personal care brand on a mission to prove that “clean” can be powerful.Sarah's journey began with a personal frustration: she couldn't find a natural deodorant that actually worked. A marathon runner and wellness enthusiast, she set out to change that — investing $12,000 of her savings and spending more than a year perfecting a formula that delivered on both performance and purity. The result? Curie, a high-performance, aluminum-free deodorant that quickly grew from a small side hustle into an 8-figure business sold in over 4,500 stores nationwide, including Walmart and Anthropologie, and featured in locker rooms at Equinox and SoulCycle.Before founding Curie, Sarah worked in venture capital, where she invested in early-stage wellness startups — experience that gave her the insight and drive to build her own brand from the ground up. We talk about her journey from investor to entrepreneur, the lessons she's learned about formulating clean products that truly work, and how she's scaling Curie while staying true to her mission and values. From her Shark Tank deal with Barbara Corcoran and Mark Cuban to building a brand that's redefining the meaning of clean, this episode is full of lessons and inspiration for founders and consumers alike.
