“Etude pour les constructeurs” Fernand Leger We follow the construction spend rate of the US education industry; using the US Census Bureau Construction Spending figures released the first day of every month. We encourage our colleagues in the education facilities industry to respond to Census Bureau-retained data gathering contractors in order to contribute to the accuracy of the report. “Lady Astor playing golf at North Berwick” 2015 John Lavery An overview of public commenting opportunities on proposed standards for sports and recreation equipment and athletic facilities.

Hawkins | Summer Saturday at Snow Hill https://youtu.be/e20RFBBzcww Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore Student Art 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. https://twitter.com/StandardsMich/status/1318508254658502657?s=20 https://twitter.com/mapeducate/status/1645590998364372993?s=20 https://standardsmichigan.com/microgrids/ https://twitter.com/DrRituRaman/status/1645773734135971844?s=20 Today at 11 AM/ET 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.

I’ll bring you whatever you like for your breakfast- dried fruits, butter, honey and bread. Says Suradasa, Yashoda’s heart overflows with joy when her gaze alights on her darling boy.” Many research universities have large medical research and clinical delivery enterprises that provide significant revenue. We periodically scan public consultations for literature that sets the standard of care for the facilities and technologies in these enterprises in education communities. 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 IEEE and ASHRAE consensus products. Today we run through the development status of these products. Our meeting 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. Today we explain our collaboration with other like-minded units in education communities in the US and other nations. In most cases we conform to participation requirements set by ANSI US Technical Advisory Groups but we also have liaison with other universities in the European Union who conform to the participation requirements of their own national standards bodies.
