Hello World!

2024-10-16 11:00 - 12:00

Today we explain our collaboration with other education settlements in the US and other nations.  We conform to participation requirements set by ANSI US Technical Advisory Groups to the International Organization for Standardization but we also have liaison with other universities in the European Union who conform to the participation requirements of their own national standards bodies.

    Today we review accommodations education settlements provide for students starting a family in high school and in college.

    • MIT — graduate student family. MIT has just profiled a graduate-student family and the community they found among other student parents. MIT News
    • MIT — actual infrastructure for student families. Three on-campus family-housing options, backup childcare and childbirth/parental accommodations. Useful factual companion to #3 rather than merely university atmospherics. Office of Graduate Education
    • UC Davis — Student Parent Space. A new dedicated Student Parent Space is open, with fall programming beginning now and links to housing, childcare and resources for expecting/new parents. Another unusually direct Domestic University item. Student Parent Resources
    • UMass Amherst — family housing. Fall 2026 applications are open for students with children, spouses, partners or dependent relatives; notably, the page currently identifies October 1 as the beginning of its move-in window.

  • Illumination 400 (Outdoor Exterior)
    2026-10-06 11:00 - 2026-10-06 12:00

    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.

    August 15, 1914. The United States assumed and completed the Panama Canal after France’s 1880s attempt collapsed amid bankruptcy, disease, and engineering failure. President Theodore Roosevelt secured the route by supporting Panama’s 1903 independence from Colombia and negotiating the Hay–Bunau-Varilla Treaty, which granted the U.S. control of a 10-mile Canal Zone. America purchased French assets for $40 million and paid Panama $10 million plus an annuity.

    U.S. Army engineers, led first by John Stevens and then Colonel George Goethals, abandoned a sea-level design for a lock-and-lake system. They created Gatun Lake—the world’s largest artificial lake at the time—and excavated nearly 240 million cubic yards of earth. Physician William Gorgas’s sanitation campaign virtually eliminated yellow fever and malaria, slashing the death toll that had doomed the French. At a cost of about $375 million—the most expensive U.S. construction project to that date—the canal opened on 15 August 1914, linking the Atlantic and Pacific and transforming global trade and naval strategy.
