London Fog
The origin of London Fog Tea -- also known as Earl Grey Tea Latte -- is traced to Vancouver (Canada) cafe life. Its name pays homage to London, England, the birthplace of Earl Grey tea, and has penetrated and locked into the waking routine in educational settlements.

Quadrivium: Winter
Educational settlements should be magical places. The stack informing the beauty of these "cities-within-cities" changes 100 to 1000 times per day globally. Titles are time-sensitive, copyright protected and land in public law. We monitor the action continuously to formulate response to public consultations. Topics appear on our CALENDAR and explored every day at 16:00 UTC. Recommend refresh of this web page once or twice to see timeliest information.
Entertainment Occupancies
Education communities have the largest installed base of publicly-owned performance facilities. By getting you quickly to the transcripts of the most recent revision cycle of the dominant model building code suite in the United States you can sample the original inspiration for safety and sustainability concepts. Committee Action Hearings on the Group B tranche of titles closed October 23-31 in Cleveland. ICC staff is now preparing summary reports that should be released for public review soon.

"Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end." ~~ Seneca ('Epistulae Morales ad Lucilium' 65 AD)
Date & Time: Representations For Information Interchange
The potential for misinterpreting dates across national boundaries is the logic for ISO 8601. This format for dates represents year, month, and day from the largest unit to the smallest, most specific unit of time. The ISO date format is the date format used in SQL and is the default date setting on many computers.
Time & Frequency Services
Time is the most measured quantity on earth. The National Institute of Standards and Technology maintains the standards for time and frequency for most users in the United States; among them education communities that use coordinated time to guide all dimensions of academic activity. The signals are broadcast via several mediums, including high and low frequency radio, the Internet and telephone lines.
Graduation, Dating, Engagements, Weddings, Births & Obituaries
Pairing young people with a lifetime bond may be the most enduring reason for educational settlements to exist; and one that has received subtle disregard by higher education administrators and marketers of the "college experience".
