Tyme
“Tyme” was used in Middle English and earlier forms of the language, and it was commonly found in historical texts, poetry, and manuscripts of that time. It was used to refer to the passage of time, an era, or a specific moment in history.

Today at 16:00 UTC we refresh our understanding of the technical standards for the timing-systems that maintain the temporal framework for daily life in education communities. The campus clock continues as a monument of beauty and structure even though digitization of everything has rendered the central community clock redundant.
Most leading practice discovery (and innovation) is happening with the Network Time Protocols (NTP) that synchronize the time stamps of widely separated data centers. In operation since before 1985, NTP is one of the oldest Internet protocols in current use and underlies the Internet of Things build out. NTP is particularly important in maintaining accurate time stamps for safety system coordination and for time stamps on email log messages.

LIVE: ABER Radio
The station was established in 1977, long before the advent of internet radio, with the goal of providing students a platform for creative expression, entertainment, and community involvement. Initially, it operated as a small, pirate-style radio station, broadcasting on a limited basis to the university campus. It mainly aired music and student-related content. Over time, the station evolved to include news, talk shows, and interviews, becoming an important part of student life and a voice for the university community.
In the early 1980s, after gaining recognition, the station was granted a temporary Restricted Service Licence (RSL) by Ofcom. This allowed it to broadcast legally on an official frequency for short periods. During this time, the station used various FM frequencies, with the exact frequency changing depending on licensing terms and specific broadcast periods.
In the 1990s, ABER Radio received an official license, enabling it to expand its reach and professionalize its operations. With this transition, the station began broadcasting online, offering a diverse range of programming from music and entertainment to news and current affairs. It also provided students with valuable experience in radio production, journalism, and broadcasting.

In terms of total spend, the US elementary and secondary school industry is about twice the size of the higher education industry according to IBISWorld. About $100 billion is in play every year for both (which we cover during our Ædificare colloquia); with higher education spending only half of what elementary and secondary school systems spend on facilities.
Note that some districts are including construction for faculty housing.
Our focus remains on applying global standard to create educational settlements that are safer, simpler, lower-cost and longer-lasting — not on the hurly-burly of local school bond elections. We recommend consulting the coverage in American School & University for more detailed and more timely information.

Time & Frequency Services
The National Institute of Standards and Technology is responsible for maintaining and disseminating official time in the United States. While NIST does not have a direct role in implementing clock changes for daylight saving time, it does play an important role in ensuring that timekeeping systems across the country are accurate and consistent.
Prior to the implementation of daylight saving time, NIST issues public announcements reminding individuals and organizations to adjust their clocks accordingly. NIST also provides resources to help people synchronize their clocks, such as the time.gov website and the NIST radio station WWV.
In addition, NIST is responsible for developing and maintaining the atomic clocks that are used to define Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), the international standard for timekeeping. UTC is used as the basis for all civil time in the United States, and it is the reference time used by many systems, including the Global Positioning System (GPS) and the internet.
Overall, while NIST does not have a direct role in implementing clock changes for daylight saving time, it plays an important role in ensuring that timekeeping systems across the country are accurate and consistent, which is essential for the smooth implementation of any changes to the system.
