  • Illumination 400
    11:00 -12:00
    2023.12.05

    Illumination technologies have had a pattern of consuming about 35 percent of building electrical energy use.  That number has been pressed downward with the expanded application of LED luminaires and occupant responsive controls; much of the transformation hastened by the IEEE, IES and ASHRAE best practice catalogs.

    Today we run through the development status of these products with specific interest in exterior illumination best practice.  This topic also is covered in the 4 time monthly meetings of the IEEE Education & Healthcare Facilities Committee.

    Innovation – Standardization – Commoditization run along a continuum.  Today we unpack some of the ideas that hasten (and prohibit) leading practice discovery; how quickly goods and services become a “human right”; why all of this is relevant to education communities and why some believe that commoditization is a myth.

    From the Wikipedia

    In business literature, commoditization is defined as the process by which goods that have economic value and are distinguishable in terms of attributes (uniqueness or brand) end up becoming simple commodities in the eyes of the market or consumers. It is the movement of a market from differentiated to undifferentiated price competition and from monopolistic competition to perfect competition. Hence, the key effect of commoditization is that the pricing power of the manufacturer or brand owner is weakened: when products become more similar from a buyer’s point of view, they will tend to buy the cheapest.

  • Disaster 500
    11:00 -12:00
    2023.12.07

    Today at 11 AM/ET (15:00 UTC) we review the literature that sets the standard of care for prevention, response and resilience of the education facility industry to storms, floods, hurricanes, earthquakes and all other disasters.  We will examine a selection of court filings that should inform how facility managers should prepare and respond to disasters, but also identify gaps in best practice literature and (possibly) key in proposals for how those gaps may be removed.

    2023.12.12

    You are welcomed to join our review of backup power systems (customer-level).  Although the term “backup” is not used in the codes and standards that govern electrical power safety and reliability, “backup” is a term of art widely used in design and field practice.   Use the login credentials at the upper right of our home page.

    EVERY MOMENT IN business happens only once. The next Bill Gates will not build an operating system. The next Larry Page or Sergey Brin won’t make a search engine. And the next Mark Zuckerberg won’t create a social network. If you are copying these guys, you aren’t learning from them. - Peter Thiel

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Today at 11 AM/ET we update our understanding of best practice literature relevant to the information and communication technology enterprises in education communities.  Our online meetings coincides with the day of two IEEE Education & Healthcare Facilities Committee teleconferences at 14:00 Central European time and 2:00 PM Eastern time in the Americas.   Starting 2023 we have begun to break down our coverage of information and communication technology embedded in campus buildings into two modules – Infotech 200 and Infotech 400.

  • “Moments to Remember” The Four Lads
    All day
    2023.12.30

    https://youtu.be/cP84U86-03o?si=N-5GiNZcwafBAmTk

     

    Contemporaneously with “The Four Freshmen” the “The Four Lads” were a prominent vocal group that gained immense popularity in the 1950s.  Their clean-cut image and refined musical style resonated with a broad audience, making them favorites on both radio and television — again, much like The Four Freshmen.

    In an era marked by the rise of vocal groups, The Four Lads distinguished themselves with their smooth harmonies and timeless appeal. Their popularity extended beyond North America, finding international success, particularly in the United Kingdom. While their chart-topping days were primarily in the 1950s, The Four Lads left an enduring legacy, influencing subsequent generations of vocalists and contributing to the golden age of American popular music.
