Great is thy faithfulness
Verse 1
Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father,
There is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not;
As Thou hast been, Thou forever wilt be.
Chorus
Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided;
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!
Verse 2
Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon, and stars in their courses above,
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy, and love.
Chorus
Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided;
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!
Verse 3
Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!
Chorus
Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided

August Sabbatical
We observe academia’s summer hiatus until August 19th when we resume our daily 15:00 sessions on the topic of Data Center standards, regulations and codes. The front desk at our State Street Office will remain open but our daily colloquia will be replaced with “Evergreen” content dating back to 1993. See our CALENDAR.
Some jankiness in presentation will likely persist until early September as we upgrade PHP versions, widgets, and plug-ins to the latest versions of WordPress and Python. Content updates across all our platforms remains unresolved; described in the link below:
All that said, the content will not change but access and timeliness “may” be delayed by no more than 24 hours.
“Tea, Earl Grey, Hot”
The command issued by the character Captain Jean-Luc Picard in the television series “Star Trek: The Next Generation” finds its way into the archive of photographs of Nobel Laureates consorting with politicians at the University of Michigan and elsewhere.

…”There’s not good math explaining forget the physics of it. Math explaining the behavior of complex systems yeah and that to me is both exciting and paralyzing like we’re at very early days of understanding you know how complicated and fascinating things emerge from simple rules…” — Peter Woit [1:16:00]
Since 1936 the Brown Jug has been the ancestral trough of generations of University of Michigan students and faculty — notably. Donald Glaser (inventor of the bubble chamber) and Samuel C. C. Ting (Nobel Laureate) whose offices at Randall Laboratory were a 2-minute walk around the corner from The Brown Jug. As the lore goes, the inspiration happened whilst watching beer bubbles one ordinary TGIF Friday.
The Brown Jug is named after the Michigan vs Minnesota football trophy, which is the oldest in college football.
Strawberry Sipper Water
Strawberry sipper water is a flavored water beverage made by combining pureed strawberries with cold water, often enhanced with ice cubes for a refreshing taste. It’s typically prepared by blending fresh or thawed frozen strawberries into a puree, mixing it with water in a pitcher, and adding ice, sometimes with mint leaves frozen in the cubes for extra flavor.
Unlike infused water, where fruit sits in water for hours, strawberry sipper water is more akin to an agua fresca, blending fruit for immediate flavor and a vibrant pink color. It’s a hydrating, low-calorie drink popular for summer or as a soda alternative, often garnished with fresh strawberries or mint.

Today we break down the catalog for food safety in education communities; with primary attention to consultations from private standard developing organizations and federal agencies charged with food safety. We do so with sensitivity to animals and plants and sustainability of the global food supply chain. Many schools are the communal cafeterias for the communities that own and operate them and run at commercial scale.
We prepare responses to public consultations released by standards developing organizations which, in many cases, have significant conformance enterprises. Core titles are published by the ANSI accredited organizations listed below:
The ASHRAE catalog is the most cross-cutting and fastest moving catalog in the land. If you claim ownership of the United States energy domain you pretty much capture everything related campus safety and sustainability. Best to deal with it on a day-by-day basis as we usually do according to daily topics shown on our CALENDAR.

University of North Carolina Greensboro: The Cobb Douglas Production Function
Much like its role as a discoverer of new knowledge and as a large consumer in the energy sector, education communities have a significant role in food security research and as a consumer in its school lunch programs, dormitory, athletic facility and healthcare enterprises. Accordingly — in much the same way we follow the US Census Bureau’s monthly construction activity report — we follow a data point provided by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) as one of our stars to steer by.
