Integrated with the most advanced radio controlled time technology with automatic summer time adjustment, minimal attention of the unit is needed to keep the most accurate time. The unit works on receiving the time radio signal. The time signal is generated by the US Atomic Clock which is located in Colorado. (The Atomic Clock is operated by the US Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology.) To enhance good reception, avoid placing the unit near television sets, metal surfaces, computers or electric devices as these devices will interfere with the reception of radio signal.

FEATURES: Atomic clock functlon with automatic daylight saving time / standard time adjustment. Solar power for full operation. No external battery needed. Jumbo display with maximum digit height 47mm. Display time with running second / calendar with month, date and day-of-week. Digital map showing the current time zone selected, for easy recognition. 12/24HR display format user selectable. POWER SAVE mechanism for minimal power consumption in dark. Hang on wall or stand on the desktop (with built-in easel stand). Display Size: 2-1/4. Clock is 10 in diameter. Please note: The atomic function will not operate in Hawaii or Alaska. This item sometimes does not communicate with the National Institute of Standards and Technology from either Hawaii or Alaska and therefore might need be set manually while in those states.

Wait A Second, And What Else To Do With It

Let me take a second here.

Not very long, was it?

But a second tied up delegates to the UN's International Telecommunication Union, who postponed a decision this week on whether to abolish the extra second that's added to clocks every few years to compensate for the earth's natural doddering.

The earth slows down slightly as we spin through space. No one falls off, but earthquakes and tides routinely slow the earth by a fraction of a fraction of a second, which makes clocks minutely wrong. If not corrected, it could make a minute of difference a century.

So every few years, official clocks around the world repeat a second. The last "leap second," as it's called, was added at the end of 2008.

Ah, I remember it well.

The UN agency has been talking about abolishing the leap second for eight years. If you ever wonder why the UN can seem so slow to act in a crisis, consider the time they've had just deciding what to do about a second. But the implications are astronomical.

For centuries time was figured by the rotation of the earth. But atomic clocks keep time by the movement of electrons in atoms.

The U.S., France and Japan consider the leap second to be a nuisance, like having to reset the clocks on the alarm and microwave twice a year, especially when power grids and global positioning systems rely on millisecond timing.

Physicist Włodzimierz Lewandowski asked the panel, "Does it make sense to ... use an imperfect clock based on a wobbly planet?"

Don't be offended, Earthlings.

But China, Canada, Britain and some astronomers think that if we move solely to atomic time, we may lose sight of the ways our days are linked to the sun and stars. We might lose sight of our place in the universe.

"The United Kingdom is strongly opposed to coming up with a new conception of time, without good reason," said British physicist Peter Whibberley.

The UN won't take up the issue for another three years, so another leap second is scheduled for June 30.

How will you use your extra second?

It's not enough time to learn Latin, climb Kilimanjaro or read Ulysses. But maybe just enough to remind us that our time goes by in the blink of an eye: We should cherish every fleeting second.

Decision put off on leap second, ending atomic clock sync with Earth day

GENEVA — The leap second may live on for at least another three years.

Once or twice a year, the leap second can be tacked on to synchronize atomic clocks — the world’s scientific timekeepers — with the Earth’s rotational cycle, which does not run quite like clockwork.

Without the leap second, atomic clocks would diverge about a minute a century from the course of the sun across the sky.

Britain, China, Canada and others have argued to keep it, but the United States, France and other nations have pushed to untether machines from the natural cycle because of the technical difficulties and costs to government and business.

Sanjay Acharya, a spokesman for the International Telecommunication Union, said Thursday a decision to abolish the leap second has been put off until next week. He said “it’s been deferred” because government delegates at an ITU meeting were unable to reach agreement at talks this week.

The decision about how much the world needs the leap second affects everything from mobile phone networks to financial markets to air traffic control systems, all of which rely on atomic clocks and wouldn’t have to momentarily stop their systems.

A Paris-based agency that tracks the globe’s irregular wobble sends notice when the world’s timekeepers need to add a leap second. That’s only done on June 30 and December 31, but sometimes years go by without an adjustment — and there’s never been the need to subtract a leap second.

Government delegates now plan to examine the issue at a separate meeting in Geneva next week, but Acharya said they will likely defer any formal decision until 2015.
