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.

"Savannah River Holiday" is a vibrant orchestral overture composed by Ron Nelson in 1952 (revised 1957), evoking the majestic Savannah River's dual nature. Lasting about nine minutes, it alternates between an energetic Allegro Vivace theme, bursting with rhythmic vitality and flourish, and a serene Adagio, offering somber, reflective lyricism. Originally titled "Savannah River Payday" after Erskine Caldwell's story, Nelson retitled it to sidestep copyright issues. This work exemplifies his "holiday" series, including Rocky Point Holiday and Aspen Jubilee, demanding technical prowess for advanced ensembles. Its bright colors and expansive melodies capture nature's power and tranquility.

The Texas Medical Center Orchestra (TMCO) is an independent, award-winning community orchestra founded in 2000 by conductor Libi Lebel, primarily composed of healthcare professionals like physicians, nurses, and medical students from Houston's Texas Medical Center. It operates as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and performs in venues such as Houston Methodist Hospital, MD Anderson Cancer Center, and the Hobby Center for the Performing Arts.

While its founder initially approached the dean of the University of Texas Medical School for support (such as free space and promotion) to launch the group, and it has occasional collaborations—like hosting events at Rice University or featuring soloists from the Shepherd School of Music at Rice—TMCO remains a standalone entity focused on the medical community.
