It's Memorial Day, Short Wavers. This holiday, we bring you a meditation on time ... and clocks. There are hundreds of atomic clocks in orbit right now, perched on satellites all over Earth. We depend on them for GPS location, Internet timing, stock trading and even space navigation. In today's encore episode, hosts Emily Kwong and Regina G. Barber learn how to build a better clock. In order to do that, they ask: How do atomic clocks really work, anyway? What makes a clock precise? And how could that process be improved for even greater accuracy?- For more about Holly's Optical Atomic Strontium Ion Clock, check out the OASIC project on NASA's website.- For more about the Longitude Problem, check out Dava Sobel's book, Longitude.

Wie der Jeep zu seinem Namen gekommen ist, dazu gibt es viele verschiedene Herleitungen. Die zutreffendste dürfte sein, dass es sich dabei um einen von Willys-Overland von 1941 bis 1945 gebauten geländegängigen Wagen für das Militär handelte. Doch diese Geschichte werden wir bei Gelegenheit einmal ausführlich erzählen. Heute sprechen wir intensiver über den Jeep Avenger. Darum geht es diesmal!Es gibt Markennamen, die quasi ein Synonym für alle Produkte dieser Art geworden sind. So werden Papiertaschentücher meistens als „Tempo“ bezeichnet, Klebebänder als „Tesa!“  "Jeep" wurde schnell zu einem Synonym für Geländefahrzeuge. Er geht vermutlich auf den amerikanischen Militärgeländewagen Willys MB und den Begriff „General Purpose“, abgekürzt GP zurück, der dann zu Jeep wurde. Aus dem Hause Jeep stellen wir heute den Avenger vor. Power und Drive!    Den Jeep Avenger gibt es als Benzin-, E-Hybrid-, 4xe- und vollelektrische Version im B-SUV-Segment. Je nachdem sind Leistungsdaten von 74 kW/100 PS, 81 kW/110 PS, 107 kW/145 PS und 115 kW/156 PS verfügbar. Wir stellen das motormäßige Einstiegmodell, also den Benziner mit 74 kW/100 PS, in der höchsten Ausstattung Summit vor. Die Beschleunigung 0-100 km/h wird in 10,6 Sekunden erledigt, mit der Höchstgeschwindigkeit von 184 km/h kann man auch gut leben. Der kombinierte Kraftstoffverbrauch von 5.8 l/100km ist für einen SUV dieser Größe auch nicht zu beanstanden, das gilt natürlich auch für die CO2-Emission von kombiniert 130 g/km. Die Innenausstattung!Wie bereits erwähnt hat unser Testfahrzeug mit Summit die höchste Ausstattung, die mittlere heißt Altitude, die Einstiegsversion Longitude. Man kann sicherlich mit Fug und Recht behaupten: wenn ein Fahrzeug heute eine Einstiegsversion ist, dann hat es in aller Regel alles andere als eine spartanische Ausstattung. Beim Jeep Avenger gehört schon zur Grundausstattung eine Reihe von Assistenzsystemen. Dazu zählen die Geschwindigkeitsregelanlage, ein autonomer Notbremsassistent, die Verkehrszeichenerkennung, der Spurhalte-Assistent, die Müdigkeitserkennung in Bezug auf die Sicherheit, zur Komfortsteigerung Features wie Keyless go, Parksensoren hinten, natürlich auch Apple carplay bzw. Android Auto.Die Kosten!Ich schulde Ihnen noch die Zahlen, die für einen Kauf sicherlich entscheidend sind, die Preise. Die liegen zwischen 25.990, -- Euro, dafür gäbe es unser Testfahrzeug als Longitude, der Summit kostet 29.990, -- Euro. Der teuerste Avenger ist – wie könnte es anders sein – die rein elektrische Version in der Summit-Ausführung für glatte 43.000 Euro!

Our next guest for the Citywide Bytes interviews has just dropped his first novel, “The Longitude of Grief,” a coming of age story about a boy named Henry and his attempts to escape a world of betrayal. But for author Matthew Daddona, it's far from his first foray into the literary world—in fact, he's been working in the publishing world for years for such companies as Penguin Random House and Dey Street Books/Harper Collins, so he knows a thing or three about getting a book out there. In this interview, Matthew shares what inspired this book, which he worked on for six years. We go into how it changed over that time and what's different in the final version. We also talk about how working as a book editor helped him during the writing process and get the story behind his main character, Nick Manero. This interview comes to us through the good folks at Books Forward PR, and you can learn more at www.booksforward.com.

Matthew Daddona is the author of The Longitude of Grief: A novel. We discuss cafe culture in Sarajevo, the virtues of Philly, writing compelling characters, how to hit a deer […]

This installment of The Axis Effect features Ernesto Cullari, Co-Founder of Cullari & Wardell. As the world becomes more digitized by the day, Cullari & Wardell offers a fresh and innovative method in the niche of laundromat advertising. Using a technique known as geofencing, Cullari & Wardell create “virtual fences” that allow laundromat wonders to verify every individual customer they receive, creating larger data pools than ever for business owners and allowing them to send ads directly to their customers, effectively generating more wealth through diverting customers away from competitors. Cullati discusses his long and exciting resume of experiences, the effect of COVID-19 on companies, and how geofencing can potentially transform the world of advertising by bridging the gap between creativity and extensive data pools. To learn more, tune in to “Latitude & Longitude of Geofencing.”
