Technology is changing at a rapid pace. Almost, all the industries are using new technology.
The products are same but the concept of making these products has been changed drastically. Industries believe in providing a best and efficient product to their consumers.
The change can be seen in Electrical industries too.
We, after the invention of Electrical cables and wires, are using them. At house, offices, Buildings, places and such places where electricity is present.
But when it comes at us to tell what exactly the difference between Wires and cables?
You will give a complete blank expression!!
Suppose, you are going to purchase wires. And people ask you, why can't you take cables?
Yes, it is and it happens with everyone.
You should know the difference between wires and cable, otherwise, your purchase can go wrong.
After reading this article, you will able to spot the difference and can even give a presentation too, who knows.
Wires are the component in cables and have a wider scope of use than cables.
The given points will make you understand the wires easily.
- A wire is a single strand or a group of strands of an electrically conductive material, aluminum or copper. Aluminum and Copper are very good conductor of electricity.
- There are two types of wire presents: Solid and Stranded. A solid wires have a long length single conductor. Whereas, a stranded wire is many thin strands of wires which are twisted with each other.
- Solid wires offer low resistance and are perfect in higher frequencies, whereas a stranded wire has a longer life, and its flexibility make it to work for a longer period.
- Thickness of Wires depends on the gauge number, which ranges from 00 to 40. Smaller gauge number wires comes in thicker size as compare to those of larger gauge number.
- Most household wires comes in the gauge number ranges from 10 to 20.
- At present, there are two types of single conductor wires in the market, THW and THWN/THHN. Both of them are available in solid as well as in standard form. Sheath, Outer protection, is made of metal or plastic material
These simple steps can make you understand the good and effective wires. If you are using wires, then remember these too.
The size of the wires is one of the important aspect, if you are using smaller wires in a place where larger size of wires are needed, it might be possible that wire can overheat and cause short circuit. Before, using any device, be sure that you have grounding wire.
Wires used to carry electrical and telecommunications signals,besides this, wires have its role in bearing mechanical loads, heating, jewelry and clothing.
At last, in wires, Solid wires are perfect for use in higher frequencies, it offer low resistance and stranded wire shows higher resistance to metal fatigue
A cable, on the other hand, consists of two or more insulated conductors and can be either bare or covered.
One of the easiest way to distinguish between cable and wire is that the wire is visible, whereas a cable is most usually insulated.
- Cables consist three types of wire, in which first wire carry current, second makes loop complete and third for grounding purpose. The wires in cables posses different gauge number, codes and size.
- The codes of wires indicates the electrical capability and insulation ability of cables.
- Cables comes with BX, UF-8 and NM-B jackets. They can be divided into two types depends on their conductors. First is two-conductor cable and the other is three-conductor cables.
- UF covered cables are best for outdoor grounding. NM are best for indoor and BX can be used anywhere indoor or outdoor.
Electrical Cables are used in power transmission, electrical and telecommunications signals.
Some examples of cables are twisted pair, coaxial cable and fiber optic cable.
Main advantage of cables are its strength and insulation.
Do not get confused between wires and cables. Now you can tell the difference to anyone that why wires are different then cables.
And you can purchase wisely.
You can also buy wires and cables at Rallison Electricals Pvt. Ltd.. We are engaged in offering all types of wires and electrical equipment online at very cost-effective rates.
lso check out the best wires and cables for your home from Rallison. We are India's leading wires & cables manufacturer in India

15Nov 14
November 12, 2014 – The first anniversary of super typhoon Yolanda (international name Haiyan) reminds us that the Philippines is already suffering from the impacts of climate change.
We at the Climate Change Network for Community-Based Initiatives (CCNCI) fear that not enough measures have been undertaken to prepare the country for future disasters.
While the Philippines may have the best legislations such as the Republic Act 9729 or the Climate Change Act of 2009 and the Republic Act 10121 or the Disaster Risk Reduction Management Act, these policies have not substantially lessened the vulnerability of the poor in times of calamities. We, as a network of NGOs directly involved in disaster preparedness, rehabilitation and recovery, have witnessed this again and again. The situation in Yolanda-affected areas proves that much has yet to be done to address the impacts of climate change. One year after the tragedy, thousands still live in cramped, dangerous temporary shelters and the poor – farmers and fisherfolk – have not received adequate livelihood assistance.
It seems that the Aquino administration is not keen on complete rehabilitation, reconstruction and recovery of Yolanda-hit provinces. While the total damages and losses amounted to P571 billion, the Aquino administration's Comprehensive Rehabilitation and Recovery Plan (CRRP) is pegged at P171 billion or 30 percent of the actual needs.
If the country's leaders have realized the seriousness of the issue at hand, why is the budget for climate change research, for example, is equivalent to only 0.5 percent of the country's gross domestic product (GDP)? The recommended allocation for climate change research is equivalent to two percent of the country's GDP. To begin with, there is yet no comprehensive study on the impacts of climate change on the Philippines.
We at the CCNCI will continue to do our share in reducing the risks of disasters and mitigating the effects of climate change at the grassroots level. But we can only do so much given our limited resources. We urge our leaders to do more — invest in disaster preparedness, conduct science-based risk reduction and climate change adaptation, strengthen the barangay risk reduction management councils, among others.
We need to act now.
*CCNCI is composed mainly of four national networks that are engaged in people-oriented development programs and come from varying disciplines and expertise, the Center for Environmental Concerns (CEC), Citizens' Disaster Response Center (CDRC), Philippine Network for Food Security Programs (PNFSP) and the Advocates for Community Health. Regional and provincial NGOs such as Kaduami, Center for Development Programs in the Cordillera (CDPC), Community Empowerment Resource Network (CERNET), Farmers Development Center (FARDEC), Tuburan, IFI Visayas-Mindanao Regional Office for Development (IFI-VIMROD), Cordillera Women's Education Action Reseach Center (CWEARC) and Integrated Development Program for Indigenous People (IDPIP) are also members of the network.

Guru Pitka delivers his words of wisdom via fanciful wordplay and self-help- book titles like "If You're Happy and You Know It Think Again."
So many of the American-born, India-reared "neo-Eastern self-help" teacher's sayings come our way, sharing one or two will hardly spoil the middling "The Love Guru."
A Pitka favorite plays on the word "intimacy": "into-me-I-see." See?
Mike Myers' return to live action after three animated features is no "Shrek." Nor is it the offensive dreck one might have feared.
After all, for months film critics and others have been receiving e-mail from American Hindu leader Rajan Zed, demanding a number of conciliatory gestures from Paramount, the studio releasing the film. Last Saturday's e-mail asked that the MPAA change the movie's PG-13 rating to an NC-17. All of this, of course, has been a campaign waged on a film unseen.
It turns out to be (as is so often the case) a lot of drama for a slight comedy that has a few sweet laughs and plenty of naughty gags (Pitka's development arrested around 13 years old).
For all its bright costumes, sitar-inflected ditties and occasional Bollywood frippery, "The Love Guru" is staid going.
The setup is at once boilerplate and personal. Myers, known for his love of hockey, came up with the personage of Pitka after his father died and he sought spiritual counsel. And "The Love Guru" is more a teasing riff on that quest than a full-on dig at India's predominant religion.
Toronto Maple Leafs star Darren Roanoke (Romany Malco of "Weeds") has come undone.
First, he left wife Prudence (Meagan Good). Discovering why makes for spiritual misadventure and sets up a showdown between Pitka and Darren's mother (Telma Hopkins).
Prudence in turn hooks up with Jacques "Le Coq" Grande, a French Canadian goalie on the L.A. Kings.
Headed into the Stanley Cup showdown, Roanoke — the Tiger Woods of the ice — has become Roan-choke.
Jessica Alba plays Jane Bullard, the unfairly despised owner of the Maple Leafs who hires Pitka to reunite Roanoke with his beloved.
As Le Coq, whose emblem is a rooster, Justin Timberlake wears a thin moustache and a belly tat that reads "The Man" and "The Legend" with directional arrows.
If there's offense to be taken here, it should be on behalf of Myers' co-stars, who often function as no more than foils for his schtick. ("Shrek" remains fun because Myers is one part of a talented voice ensemble, not the ham at the center of the Easter dinner.)
Manu Nayaran plays Rajneesh, a Tonto sidekick to Pitka's Lone Ranger on an Elephant. And Ben Kingsley is Guru Tugginmypuddah, young Pitka's spiritual teacher. His other student is some earnest kid named Deepak Chopra.
The childish gag on names is less about ethnicity than snarky silliness. Myers' competition for this weekend's box office, Steve Carell in "Get Smart," did a similar routine on "Saturday Night Live."
Verne Troyer, "Mini Me" in the Austin Powers sequels, plays Maple Leafs coach Punch Cherkov (I know, I know), a tough guy who sees right through Pitka. Though, isn't it past time to retire the angry dwarf role for a spell? In countering a stereotype of little people, it has become its own cliche.
There's always a chance that I don't get the well of British comedy history Myers draws from, though "The Love Guru" feels less Peter Sellers circa "The Party" than it does Benny Hill.
In a more transcendent comedy, the movie's moral about self-love might have hit the sweet spot between wise and wise-cracking.
Instead, when Pitka ends his bite-size lessons with "TM," we should understand it's not meditation but branding he's after.

PG-13 for crude and sexual content throughout, language, some comic violence and drug references. 1 hour, 28 minutes. Directed by Marco Schnabel. Starring Mike Myers, Jessica Alba, Justin Timberlake, Romany Malco, Ben Kingsley. Opens today at area theaters.

Could you possibly believe I was back in the dentist chair today?
5 comments:
I'm glad you were able to get away in spite of the tooth problems. It's nice to have a dentist that you really like and appreciate good care.ReplyDelete
Oh, I'm sorry to read about your continuing dental woes. Hopefully, they will all be fixed up and you'll be good for years to come. Your getaway sounds like a welcome reprieve.ReplyDelete
Yes, I feel your pain. We, of a certain age, understand all too well. Hope that you won't be seeing these professionals any time soon. On the other hand, hope that you enjoy more good times in Florida. I have never been.ReplyDelete
Oh my goodness. Not again! Sorry for the tooth adventures, but so glad you had a holiday. Sort of puts things in perspective, doesn't it? May you continue to heal well.ReplyDelete
I am so happy that you are at the end of the dentist "drill!" It's about time! AND 15 lbs! I just stepped on the scales this morning and waaaailed! (a prolonged high-pitched cry of grief) Oh to lose 15 lbs! Seriously, I cannot imagine all the discomfort you have been through. Not fun at all. The good things are that there were perks along the way. No more pain, loss of 15 lbs, 30 years of marriage to celebrate, and a beautiful trip to Florida. Now, how wonderful is that? It is so good to hear from you here on your blog. Blessings to you!ReplyDelete

Measurement can seem elusive to event professionals. While concerned about sustainability, we are incredibly busy with the details of planning and executing meetings and events. However, we realize that 'what gets measured gets managed' and that better management can help us reduce costs and better understand our resource utilization... yet, how do we effectively accomplish this in today's pressure cooker of competing urgent priorities and demands on our time?
Join us to learn strategies and tips from different perspectives on measurement for event sustainability, including what to measure and how to do it without it monopolizing your time. Hugo Kimber, Founder of The Carbon Consultancy, will provide a quick and helpful foundation with a little theory around measurement as well as important insight gained through the development of the Sustainable Event Measurement Tool. From a venue's perspective, Lindsay Arell will share how she established the Colorado Convention Center's sustainability practices that have led the venue and Lindsay to be recognized as leaders in the industry.
Come with your questions and find solutions, learning from those who have successfully discovered ways to incorporate sustainable event measurement into their daily work.

From the letters to make a word - simply nowhere !Teach your child the letters to form words quickly
- Stationery
- Cubes
- Fantasy
Games with letters, such as those where the need of the letters to make a word, let the children faster and easier to learnreading and writing, help to shape the auditory attention, promote the expansion of horizons.Especially these games are useful for children who have speech disorders.The signs of a speech disorder may be incorrect pronunciation of sounds, distortion of the sounds that children previously pronounced correctly, repetition or omission of syllables, they are interchanged.Kids with problems find it difficult to make the word of the letters, or perform the task correctly.The investigation - problems in study and fellowship.
verbal games in which letters make up the word, contribute to the development of phonemic hearing child.Adults utter a word, the child's task - to find out, where the word is a certain sound - at the beginning, middle or end of a word.You can spend the game in reverse.For this child of the letters o
Word Games help to first learn the syllables, and then you can start learning and reading by syllables.Here are some examples.Adults referred to a few letters, and the child should be of the letters to make a word and say the syllables or words composed of these sounds [n] + [a] + [n] + [a] - "Pa-pa."Adults out words, the child needs to slap his hands when he hears the correct syllable.Adults utter a word consisting of several syllables, and the child needs to utter these syllables in reverse order.Then the kid on their own letters of speech, focusing on a speech by an adult.
Another kind of word games are where you need the letters to form words on a piece of paper.For this game need pens.The idea of the game in the following.Adult come up with a word, and then randomly writes all letters are available in it.child task - to lay down a word of these letters.For example, "A" letters "A", "P", "P" formed the word "DAD".Anyone who has any of the letters to form words, know that from the same set of letters can get a few words: "Cat", "Who", "CURRENT".Not an easy task, so you first need to choose simple source words.
If the baby is not yet able to read, play with the letters should be in the following order.At first the child some time studying the letter and trying to remember it.It is necessary to compare it with the surrounding objects, to find out what it looks like.The following is to understand what elements composed the letter, draw the letter in the air with your hand or a finger, and then the pattern on paper.It will be very useful to listen to a short poem about the study of the letter.The last step - reading syllables, which has studied the letter.Only when the child is remember a few letters, you can try to make words from the letters.
with the baby, who confidently read, you can try and such a childhood friend to all version of the game.Adult conceives a word - more interesting, of course, if it is long, multiletter noun, but it is worth remembering that the child it may be unclear, in which case the game will be difficult and uninteresting to him.Conceived word should be written on a piece of paper, the letters that make it up, baby and adult (or two or more children, the game may participate any number of players) have to make as much as other, more short words as possible.It is interesting to organize a competition between the participants and compare the number of composed words.If the child has confidence to cope with such a task, the game can be complicated by introducing a time limit.
The article deals with only some of word games.To the letters to make words, do not need special training, bring together the child and parents.Dream, parents will always be able to come up with new games for literacy and learning to read by syllables.

What happened to Wednesday? I was walking late this afternoon and I suddenly realized that uh, this is Thursday. That meant I had forgotten talking to folks here on One Writer's Journal on Wednesday. Of course, the best thing about a journal is that there are no deadlines. You can write when you want, what you want, as much or little as you want.
However, when I started this on-line journal, I did say I'd come visiting on Sundays and Wednesdays. I picked church days to help me remember, and now, alas, I know what happened to Wednesday. I didn't go to Bible Study last night or stay at Mom's overnight. That's what I usually do on Wednesdays. But I'm beginning to feel the pressure of the deadline for my work in progress and since I am spending a lot of working hours caring for Mom, I have to scramble for working time at my desk. Even so, I had planned to go to Bible Study last night, but then an acquaintance passed away and my husband decided he needed to go early to make a visit to the funeral home. And I copped out. I decided if I was working at a store or a restaurant and needed to work, nobody would think twice about me working instead of making it to church. That doesn't quite make up for the poke of guilt I feel not making it to church, but it was my rationalization. We can rationalize almost anything if we work at it. Whether we should or not!
But that hits on one of the hardest things about being a self-employed writer. Keeping those hours to work. Books don't write themselves, but when you work from your home, whether it's writing or whatever you might do, you have to be disciplined. And you have to stand up to others for your working hours. Things are difficult for me now with Mom's deteriorating health, but I've always had to carve out time from my busy life to write. I told a book club group the other night that I wrote my first novel while Captain Kangaroo was on. Then it was during school hours. Now all my kids are out on their own and I have to carve out time from my working schedule for those grandkids.
That's what I was doing in the picture up top – taking a walk with my son and some of the grandkids. It's always a balancing act. Whatever we do, whatever kind of work. Work and family. Work and fun. In writing there is even more balancing to do. Writing and promoting. Writing a good book is the most important thing I can do to gain readers, but after I do the best job of that I can, then I have to try to let interested readers know about the book. That means newsletters and Facebook and Twitter time keeping up with my reading friends and letting them know what's going on with me – that I do enjoy. Blogging time – that I also enjoy. Contests to promote my books. I love giving stuff away.
Then there are book fairs and book clubs – two of my very favorite ways to meet readers. Add into all those the many other tasks of writing on top of churning out that first draft of a book like editing and coming up with discussion questions and promo bits and doing blog visits. In fact I'm visiting a blog now i blog 4 books where you can leave a comment to have a chance to win a copy of Words Spoken True. Brooke in the interview asked what was my pet peeve and so people have been sharing their own pet peeves in their comments. So it's fun.
Be assured, I'm not complaining. I love writing and meeting readers. I went to a book club last week. Had a great time hearing what they had to say about Words Spoken True and answering the questions they asked. Saturday I'll be at the Southern KY Book Fest in Bowling Green, KY from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. CST talking to people one on one about my books. I'm on a panel about Christian fiction at 1 p.m. If you're in the area, I'd love to talk to you too.
I've been keeping up with some of the questions people have been asking me lately. I'm going to be answering some of them in detail on here in the next few weeks. So if you've got something you always wanted to know about writing, but were afraid to ask, now's your chance.
Thanks for reading my Wednesday post on Thursday. 🙂 If you work from home, what's the hardest part of that for you?

FOR ST JOHNSTONE supporters, the international break may have been a sore reminder of what they have desperately required at times this season, as former player Stevie May's Scotland debut gave them a glimpse of the cutting edge they have lamented this season.
However, on the resumption of league business yesterday, a Tartan Army hero of days gone by turned back the clock to ensure Saints can look forward with renewed optimism.
James McFadden gave the Perth outfit the breakthrough their first-half probing deserved with his first goal in his sixth appearance since signing last month. The 31-year-old was pivotal throughout and, when Michael O'Halloran doubled the home side's advantage with 18 minutes remaining to make amends for a remarkable miss earlier, the destination of the points seemed certain.
However, County, who knew a positive result could allow them to leapfrog St Mirren off the foot of the table, gave themselves hope with Jake Jervis's close-range strike just two minutes later and from a comfortable position St Johnstone were left hanging on grimly as they willed the full-time whistle to arrive. In the end, manager Tommy Wright was able to hail McFadden's contribution, rather than lament a late collapse.
"James was excellent," beamed Wright, "I'm really pleased. I'm pleased for him because he's working really hard. He's been a big influence off the pitch; he's been a big influence since he came through the door because he gave everybody a lift.
"He's a quality player and he's getting fitter. I don't tell James how to play, I just tell him where I want him to play and he goes and plays. His quality was evident today."

One such moment came when McFadden swivelled on a pass 40 yards from the County goal and surged forward in the 11th minute. The former Motherwell magician's reverse ball was perfect for O'Halloran, but visiting keeper Mark Brown was equal to the shot.
Despite McFadden's influence from broken play, it was from a corner that the home side eventually broke the deadlock. Lee Croft's set-piece landed for McFadden and he twisted swiftly enough to lose his marker before drilling into the net from 12 yards out on the angle. A deflection off the unfortunate Richard Brittain deceived Graham Carey on the line.
"It was good to get on the score-sheet," commented McFadden. "I felt good and I enjoyed it. I'm enjoying being here, I'm happy turning up every day and the fitter I get the better I'll get."
County's hunger could not be questioned in the second half, as they fought manfully to get a foothold in the match. But they should really have been two behind in the 65th minute. Croft sped on to McFadden's pass and lifted a cute cross into the goalmouth. O'Halloran got his header in from barely a yard out but, whilst he ended in the back of the net, incredibly the ball ricocheted off the post and was eventually cleared.
O'Halloran shook off the shock of the miss, however, by spearing Saints into a two-goal lead. With County claiming a penalty at the other end, the Scotland under-21 cap meandered into the box after receiving a McFadden pass to score.
The extended advantage lasted just two minutes, though, as Jervis bundled in Scott Boyd's header down from a Joe Cardle cross with 15 minutes still remaining. Saints were rocking but held firm for a timely boost before the pair meet in next weekend's Scottish Cup rematch.
County manager Jim McIntyre said: "We had a couple of words at half-time and we knew exactly where we needed to improve, and I felt we did that really well in the second half and created opportunities. Again, it's about taking your opportunities when they come. They took there's, but I'm disappointed to leave with nothing."

I'm Feeling STRONG !!!
Yeah feeling real good this week. I intensified my running – increased the speed just a little. Had a great heavy and intense upper body weights session today at the gym.
Actually I have applied for Army Officer selection. At 40 I probably wont be accepted but its great motivation anyway.
And for dinner tonight I had beef schnitzel, taro, brussel sprouts and garlic.
Back to the gym
Man I had to have a 2 week layoff due to a damn herroid. Well I'm back in action now. Did a good bench workout plus some bicep/tricep and shoulder work. I threw in some leg curl and extension just to get a pump in my thighs again.
Leg press and squat are off limits for another week. Now I must say you can always find a way to train if you have to. I have an EMS machine but the damn things broken at present.
Electro Muscle Stimulation is the only way I would train my muscles while suffering from a hemrrhoid (how the frig do you spell that ?).
Anything else could aggravate the problem.

Memorial service for veterans planned at Prospect Hill
Magdalena La Grange's 1890 poem "The Tried and True" will once again be heard throughout the Soldiers Lot in the town's Prospect Hill Cemetery.
The trustees of the cemetery are putting on a special presentation to honor war veterans buried at Prospect Hill on Saturday. Soldiers from nearly all of America's military engagements, from the American Revolution up to present-day conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, are interred at Prospect Hill. Many of them, particularly those who fought in the Civil War, are in the southeast corner of the cemetery in a section called the Soldiers Lot.
La Grange, a poet from Guilderland, recited her poem herself in an 1890 ceremony at Prospect Hill. And in 2003, town of Guilderland historian Alice Begley read "The Tried and True" before a large audience at another cemetery celebration. On Saturday, around 3 p.m., Guilderland native Michelle Parlej will do the reading, which in part says: "We come today remembering the loved, the tried, the true. To deck the place, where lie in pace, the boys who wore the blue."
Veterans' Memorial Service
WHERE: Prospect Hill Cemetery, 2167 Western Ave., Guilderland; shuttle bus will take people from Guilderland Elementary School at 2225 Western Ave. to the cemetery
WHEN: 2-4 p.m. Saturday
HOW MUCH: Free
MORE INFO: 456-3032 or 456-1608
"The syntax is a little bit different, and some of the words she uses are different from what we would use today," said Parlej, a docent at the Schoolcraft Culture Center in Guilderland. "I don't want to sing it, and I can't worry about the rhyming, so it is going to be a challenge for me. But I give house tours, I'm used to public speaking and I'm going to practice, so I should be OK."
"We're kind of redoing what we did in 2003, and what Magdalena La Grange did when she read her own poem in 1890, said Begley. "There was a small Victorian cottage in the cemetery then and she got up and read in front of quite a few people. We also had a very good turnout in 2003, so we're hoping we get some people there on Saturday."
Historic land
Prospect Hill Cemetery is at 2167 Western Ave. (on the northern side of Route 20) in the eastern section of the town. The land was acquired by the Reformed Dutch Church around 1850, and the cemetery was chartered by the state in 1854. In 1862, citizens of the town decided to set aside a "Soldiers Lot," where eventually 161 veterans of the Civil War would be interred. There is a large Gothic monument there marking that section of the cemetery, which is now a private enterprise being managed by the Prospect Hill Cemetery Association.
Saturday's ceremony will include a bagpipe performance by Bob Ditton as well as the singing of the national anthem by Guilderland High student Rachel Young. Various officials will also be on hand, and Vietnam veteran Lawrence P. Wiest will also offer a few remarks. The VFW of Altamont will be the firing party, and Leonard Bopp and Jake McGrath of Guilderland High School will play taps. Parking for the event will be at the Guilderland Elementary School at 2225 Western Ave., and people will be transported to the cemetery by a shuttle bus.
"We just wanted to do something, and let the veterans, their families and their friends know that we're thinking of them," said Howard Jacobson, a trustee of the cemetery and its secretary-treasurer. "We have a lot of veterans buried at Prospect Hill, so we feel like it's important to do something like this now and then."
Beautiful setting
Larry Murphy is the superintendent at Prospect Hill Cemetery and has been busy getting the place ready for Saturday's event.
"This is a beautiful place, and even though we're right on Route 20 you can't hear very much and you can't see the traffic," said Murphy. "The Pine Bush on the one side and the rolling hills make it a great place to work. I really enjoy it."
According to Begley, the cemetery was a popular spot for recreation during the second half of the 19th century.
"Around 1900, Prospect Hill was a real gathering place for the dead and the living," she said. "It was customary for families to pack a lunch and head there for an outing."
These days, the land seems a much more serene and quiet place where people can pay their respects to the dead. The cemetery, the biggest in the town of Guilderland, currently consists of 18 acres, and there is plenty of room to expand.
"We have nine sections right now, and we're currently working on opening No. 10," said Jacobson. "We try to look ahead, so we have room for about 1,000 more graves."

Sign of Spring
February 8th, 2011
The first sign of spring to me isn't the singing of robins but the arrival of the Pennsylvania Garden Expo.
This 3-day garden show at the Farm Show Complex is first out of the gate of the four late-winter shows in day-trip range of Harrisburg. Once Expo gets here, things seem to roll into onion-planting time pretty fast – even if we get a blizzard or two in the meantime.
This year's Expo happens Fri., Feb. 25, through Sun., Feb. 27.
My favorite part is the display gardens. I helped build a few of these in Expo's early years, and I can tell you a ton of work goes into it in a very short period of time.
It's not easy creating a blooming garden in February – complete with water features, outdoor kitchens and paver patios – on top of solid concrete in a matter of days. If you're curious about what goes on behind the scenes, I wrote an article on it last year. Check it out here.
Ten local landscapers plan to build gardens this year, and students from area vo-tech and trade schools are building five more.
These gardens might not be as elaborate as the Philadelphia Flower Show's theatrical spectacles, but they are very nice and a welcome site when most of us have had enough ice and snow.
One thing most people come away saying about Expo display gardens is that these are realistic gardens – in other words, ones you could and would actually do in your own yard.
That's the point. The idea of Expo isn't to astound you but to give ideas, information and inspiration to make your home landscape a little nicer.
The seminars are geared toward that end, too. Coming back once again for talks all three days is the inimitable Roger Swain, he of the red suspenders, beard and "Victory Garden" pedigree.
Roger is actually Harvard-trained brilliant, but he's got a down-to-earth manner that connects perfectly with folks who, well, like to get down to the earth. He's always filled with stories that help you learn without realizing you've been "teachered."
I'm planning to sit in on Roger's talk on "Good Enough Grass" (Sat., 3 p.m.) on moving away from our obsession with perfect green carpets.
Throughout the show, other talks will focus on growing herbs, creating cool-weather container gardens, the psychology of curb appeal and eco-friendly yards.
I'll be doing four talks: "10 Ways to Be a Greener Gardener" (Fri., 1:30), a seed-starting demo (Fri., 3:30); "How NOT to Mess Up Your Landscape" (Sat., 10:30) and "Cutting-Edge Plants for Your 2011 Garden" (Sat., 1:30).
For the first time, I'm also going to have a booth at Expo all three days where I'll be happy to chat and answer questions.
My lovely wife, Sue, will be there, too. She's planning to decorate the booth with plants and run a video montage of photos from some of the great gardens we've visited.
She and my daughter, Erin, also designed one of those nifty pull-down banners with a big flower and my face on it. It makes its public debut at Expo.
Thinking about heading over? The Expo folks gave me eight tickets that I'm giving away randomly to four of my e-column subscribers. So if you're on that list, you don't have to do anything. I'll email the winners. If you're not on the list, sign up by hitting the button in the left column. And this would be a good time to get your friends and family to sign up (so they can give you their tickets in case they win).
Besides the gardens and talks, you'll find more than 150 vendors and exhibitors of all sorts manning booths at Expo. See the full show details at www.pagardenexpo.org.
And if you'd also like to see the 2011 edition of that other flower show, the one they have down in Philadelphia, I'm taking three bus loads down through Lowee's Group Tours on March 7, 9 and 11. It's $75 (including show admission), and the theme this year re-creates Paris in spring.
The first bus is already filled, and the second one is almost there, too. Sign up to go by calling Lowee's at 657-9658 or toll-free 1-888-345-6933.

When my son was a toddler, he wanted to be a drummer. Now I've got nothing against drummers, but my years in the music business taught me something. Drummers always get the shaft. They blow up in bizarre gardening accidents. They don't get songwriting credits. They watch the Jagger-Richards of the world get all the royalty glory. So what did I do? I taught my son drummer jokes to create a psychological backdrop where he might not view drummers with awe. This morning the Regular Guy reviewed "Whiplash" which is about a drum student with an overly demanding teacher. It conjured memories of favorite drummers and drumming songs.
What do you call a guy that hangs out with musicians?
A drummer
How do you get a drummer off the doorstep?
Pay for the Pizza
What do you call a drummer without a girlfriend?
How can you tell if the stage is level?

The DIG has in the past constructed 3 grade schools.
#1 in the village of El Silencio,
#2 in the village of El Salitrillo
#3 in the Village of Moran (this school is approaching completion and is expected to be open in Sept. 2015.
It is our belief that education is key! That means education for everyone!
One thing lacking in our region is a school for the forgotten….the kids who possess some sort of physical or mental limitation that sends them often to die in the back room…. forgotten. We want to help and you can too! It is our dream to construct a Special Needs School in our area. There is nothing right now for those kids in wheelchairs…. those who are blind…. those who are mentally challenged in some way. These kids deserve better. They deserve hope and a fighting chance. Help us make the dream of a school for these often brilliant but forgotten children!

Called the story of this game is not original to get at least because there is a zombie, but somehow this time they mixed into the New Year holidays, and who have the most famous defender and protector of the winter season? That's right! Santa Claus! That's right, he will fight with these people the horrors of trying to spoil the holiday, when people stayed there at all ...
That's what the developers were able to distinguish, so the fact that they do not do stupid shooter as usual, here you will find a full quest, the main weapon which will be your own brain! To advance in the storyline to be performed entirely clear assignment from our friend with gifts and then there will be a chance to save the new year!
But we will not sing ballads about the story and the game as a whole, it falls far short to many favorites of the genre, though to be honest, I think the developers did not try to compete with them, and is it possible? Anyway, you can try a different holiday jobs, small puzzles, and sometimes difficult situations from which to find a way out, and if the puzzles here are simple enough, many other scenes will be much more difficult, primarily due to the fact that you do not offer any clues . With a little bit upset, so it's the abundance of advertising is proudly located oily strip at the bottom of the screen, and frankly mesh. But if you're willing to tolerate advertising, you know, you can download the game for free and no Donata it does not, in my view equivalent exchange.
Pros and features of the game Santa vs. Zombies 2:
Disadvantages of the game Santa vs. Zombies 2:
Bottom line: if you have strange ideas about New Year's holidays, the game definitely cheer you up, and if you do not find fault, it's normal, sometimes even difficult quest about zombies and Santa Claus!

John Sales:
Your thoughtful piece about Troy Smith's approach to the job at Sissinghurst raises some important issues.The first is that it is impossible to recreate a garden exactly according to the original and retain it thus, indeed this aim would be contrary to the very nature of gardens, which are constantly changing and developing day-to-day, month-to-month and year-to-year. Apart from their inorganic structure, we are dealing with a complex series of interacting processes which need to be guided according to a shared ideal. This ideal has to be tempered by reality and changed circumstances, including funding, climate etc., and change of use e.g. mass visiting, events etc. The fundamental challenge at Sissinghurst is over-visiting – responding to 100 times as many visitors as the place was created for.
I remember Sissinghurst in Vita's time – just – and it was very much more patchy – brilliantly inventive but uneven. Private owners can enjoy the luxury of not going into bits of the garden that are unkempt or "not doing it" at any particular time; so we avoid them. Would current visitors accept this seasonal approach? In those days the Nuttery was (almost) all a big splash of polyanthus but getting sick from repetition and impossible to sustain. The present sophisticated ground cover scheme was developed by Pam Schwerdt and Sibylle Kreutzberger with Graham Thomas – should it be scrapped in the interest of "revitalisation" ? The point is that it is unrealistic to expect "private" gardens that have become "public" to a greater or lesser extent, to remain as they were.
The only sensible approach to garden conservation is to analyse the full significance of each, which demands research and judgement to a high degree – historic, aesthetic, architectural, horticultural, educational, social, environmental, influential, originality etc. Obviously these elements differ for each garden and it is essential to identify them and to rank them according to importance. The purpose is to set out the special significance of the garden ranked in "priority" terms. What are the qualities / values that make this garden different / special? In terms of the National Trust – what are the qualities / values for which the garden was acquired for long-term "preservation" (conservation)?
In this way it is possible to decide what can be retained (perhaps) in changing circumstances and what cannot, In the last resort, what do we save in a crisis? What do you grab when "the house is on fire" or " the ship is sinking"?
I suggest that with Sissinghurst significance certainly did not stop when Vita died. The fact is that this garden, developed and "recreated" by Pam and Sibylle and guided by Graham, led the post-War renaissance in flower gardening of the '60s, '70s and '80s. Their artistic plantsmanship was jointly honed to an unprecedented degree. The garden rightly became an icon of their post-Jekyll style, managed to an extraordinary degree of continuing perfection throughout the opening season, attracting far too many visitors for its own good; hence the many minor changes to accommodate them. Its significance throughout this period and now is that it has become doubly important both as Vita's creation , faithfully preserved, with a more horticulturally interesting and artistically arranged overlay. This garden has had an immense influence all over the world, based on this combination of qualities; even Great Dixter (whatever Christo would say) owed a great deal to Sissinghurst during his time. Literally millions of people went home with a new image of gardening. Highly significant I think.
Of course we now have other trends, led principally by television and the big flower shows, but this should not stop us valuing the Sissinghurst style and quality.
So your question "what do we open gardens for?" begs too many questions. The fact is that the National Trust is greedy and applies the same considerations to all its properties (forever, for everyone) which are inevitably destructive to special places like Sissinghurst, Hidcote etc., which need to be protected from the hordes and are simply not suited to the needs of everyone.

Jack Dorsey (@jack) is a double-timing executive. He spits his week between Twitter and Square, two fundamentally game-changing companies he has founded. You've probably heard of Twitter. And you've likely heard of Square by now, as everyone who uses it inevitably becomes an advocate for the service. Every time you see a cab driver or food truck faced with the decision to either not accept credit cards or pay high vendor setup costs, you feel compelled to share the gospel of Square's free setup and bare minimum processing fee (2.75%).
Jack starts with the story of two nice guys who founded a pizza company together. To keep the company intact, they promised not to date the waitstaff. Until they hired Jack's mother. His dad broke the interoffice dating rule and gave up the pizza company. The moral being that neither Jack's father nor Jack himself sought to be entrepreneurs. They wanted to do work they loved. Jack lists sailor, tailor, and surrealist artist as his original career paths. His goal was to teach the world to see in a different way.
Entrepreneurship is an attitude, not a declared self-identity. Steve McQueen said "When I believe in something, I'm going to fight like hell to get it." That's the attitude you need to hold to start a company." Entrepreneurship is finding the intersections of life and being there before anyone else.
William Gibson said, "The future has already arrived. It's just not evenly distributed yet." This quote excites Jack: just think about the future that lives inside the heads of students at MIT, or inside our laptops.
The Founding Fathers' best idea was embodied in the phrase "a more perfect union." They understood that the work wasn't done yet, that others would have to carry the banner and flush the rest of it out.
We tend to emphasize these founding moments, but Jack points to every new employee and every new user's ability to change the course of the company. Such an idea can come from anywhere. Successful organizations are the result of multiple founding moments.
Jack's not a huge fan of the word 'disruption' in a startup context. He shows us a photo of what appears to be post-hurricane damage as an example of disruption. Disruption is confusing, has no purpose, and has no values. We want leadership, we want direction. The world has enough confusion. What we really seek to build is a Revolution. Jack isn't shy about pointing to the French Revolution or Ghandi to illustrate his corporate principles.
Square is the latest version of a fundamental human behavior: commerce. Commerce, put simply, is the activity between buyer and seller. Square seeks to help ease all of the friction and frustration that lives between buyer and seller in our modern economy. They shrunk the complexity of the credit card industry down to a device the size of a quarter that you just plug into your phone.
The onerous fees, setup costs, and credit checks prevented many people from accepting money. Traditionally, only 10% of applicants are approved to receive credit card transactions. Square accepts 95% of applicants because they found more intelligent ways to verify identity and prevent fraud.
We've stopped carrying checkbooks. Many of us have stopped carrying cash. How long will it be before we stop carrying credit cards?
The Square team gave themselves one month to build the system, and were successful. Jack had fun demoing the app to friends and family by swiping their credit cards. The simplicity resonated with everyone they talked to. Many of the informal merchants that make up our economy, from golf trainers to food trucks, were free to accept credit cards for the first time.
Accepting credit cards grows your business. You get more customers, and they spend more. Prior to Square, merchants had to rely on POS (Point of Sale…or Piece of Sh&t) terminals. They're big, clunky, and silly expensive. You get a receipt for a donut. It doesn't actually track what you sold.
The analytics Square offers are exciting, too. Small businesses can learn what sells when in an intuitive interface. The Square register app runs on an iPad and replaces the DSL line, the cash register, and all of the other credit card processing paraphernalia.
Jack didn't have to do much business development for Square. Starbucks came to them (a nice perk of being the Twitter founder). It turned out that Starbucks had many of the same problems of small vendors. The cost savings add up. Merely running an iPad rather than a PC and receipt printer saves on electricity, especially when you consider the scale of Starbucks' stores.
As a company, Square is focused on building a product. They don't want to get in the way of their users and merchants. They've engineered the company to stay out of the way.
Jack tells us the story of the Golden Gate Bridge. The "Golden Gate" refers to the strait in the bay. The water's deep, and there are earthquakes. But the engineers had the audacity to do it, and the project came in two years early and under budget. Jack attributes this success to the pairing of design and engineering. "Design" here doesn't mean the visual aesthetics, but also marrying the function and the form. Engineers are concerned with efficiencies and readable code. When you write code, you're not just telling the computer what to do. You're communicating with other coders.
The Golden Gate Bridge's #1 feature is its 100% uptime. But it also takes your breath away. The designers had the audacity to build something functional and beautiful. They built something they could be proud of. Square takes this approach to heart.
Money has been with us for 5,000 years and touches every single person on this planet. Everyone on this planet feels bad about money at some point in their life.
Square's electronic receipts were noticed to be a compelling medium in their own right. You can communicate with receipts.
A team of four people built the idyllic purchasing experience at Square. You can now walk into a store, buy a cappuccino, and walk out wondering if you paid for your coffee. They accomplished this with geofencing and communication between your smartphone and the Square-powered iPad register. Your face and name show up on the register, you give your name, and choose how much to tip. Tips have gone up 22% (interface design and default options can have serious impact here).
Square has seen crazy growth, crazy competition, and yet, Jack promises, a relaxed work environment.
Every Square piece is a real-world ad impression. The device is synonymous with the company name (an improvement upon the previous working name 'Squirrel'), and makes enough of an impression that people Google it and find them. Jack is proud that the company now beats Wikipedia's geometry page for such searches, vindicating his 14-year-old self.
Jack's passionate about maintaing a transparent corporate culture. Twitter holds weekly town halls, which live on at Square as Town Squares. Notes are kept at every major meeting, and shared with the entire company. The final decision is posted at the top of the document, and the conversation that led to it is recorded below. Jack's also a fan of standing meetings, where long, drawn-out agendas expire with his colleagues' leg muscles.
Even with major employee growth, Square only employs 5 people with backgrounds in the finance industry. They are engineers, above all else.
When Jack pitched Square to JP Morgan Chase, they pointed out just how much money he was leaving on the table by eliminating all of the traditional fees and hardware costs. But this pro-customer behavior earned them unquantifiable (IMHO) word of mouth for their product. A taxi driver in Cincinnati was paying 15% transaction fees on credit cards, with a significant time delay before the money made it into his bank account. Square's radically improved economics led this taxi driver to convince the rest of his union to adopt the device. The company has directly benefitted from these offline social networks simply by being great. It would be interesting to see a business case study on the financial value of leaving money on the table in exchange for your customers' love.
Square's analytics feature could also prove controversial. Traditional POS systems have shied away from this feature on the grounds of privacy. Square will collect huge amounts of small business data, which is valuable in aggregate.
Jack points out that 90% of the people in large organizations are paid to say "No" to new ideas. They are hired to protect existing business and eliminate risk. They need to be pushed for innovation to occur.
Square makes its money on the 2.75% fee, but must pay the interchange, so there are transactions on which it loses money. The pricing around credit cards hasn't been rethought in 62 years, when Diners' Club started charging merchants 7% to accept their cards. Square introduced Simple Pricing to allow merchants to pay a flat fee per month rather than a per swipe fee. Businesses between $10,000 and $250,000 do well with this pricing model. The more compelling case may be around data. Merchants and consumers alike could benefit from insights provided by Square's data, but Jack doesn't offer specifics yet.
On NFC: Jack doesn't see a fundamental connection between NFC technology and payments. With NFC, you don't get the customer's identity until after they've paid. Merchants don't have much reason to be excited about NFC at the moment.

Am I Addicted to Alcohol?
The boarder line between alcohol abuse and alcoholism can be rather slight, like crossing the border between one U.S. state and another. The individual's physical and psychological makeup will determine exactly where that border is. We will start with a medical explanation of addiction.
According to the Mayo Clinic, "Alcohol dependence is characterized by impaired control over alcohol, preoccupation with use, continued use despite negative consequence, and sometimes evidence of physical dependence on alcohol. Various factors, such as your personality, your genetic makeup and peer pressure, affect your likelihood of becoming addicted to a drug or alcohol. In addition, some drugs, such as heroin and cocaine, more quickly produce a physical alcoholism than other drugs do for many people.
"Physical addiction appears to occur when repeated use of a drug (alcohol) alters reward pathways in your brain. The addicting drug causes physical changes to some nerve cells (neurons) in your brain. Neurons use chemicals called neurotransmitters to communicate.
Neurons release neurotransmitters into the gaps (synapses) between nerve cells; neurotransmitters are received by receptors on other neurons and on their own cell bodies. The changes that occur in this communication process vary with the type of drug to which you're addicted, though researchers have discovered that addictive drugs, such as cocaine and morphine, affect some areas of the brain in the same manner.
If further research confirms findings such as this, it would be possible to develop more effective medications to combat alcoholism to more than one drug."
In simpler terms, alcoholism is when you lose control over the drug.
It controls you.
You crave the drug, and you center your thoughts on getting the drug, using alcohol and getting more of it.
It is no longer a choice that you can overcome with will power. As the drug takes control over a person's life, they lose interest in life's activities, personal relationships other than the ones with fellow users, and the person ignores any health, social or legal consequences.
If you believe you are addicted and asking this question, you are far better off than many addicts. We encourage you to seek help.

Sometimes I truly do hate everything I've gone through with my mental health. I wish I was just "normal," and that my whole post-secondary education could have gone smoothly, so that I would be going into my fourth year of university now, instead of switching programs again to start my first year of college.
When I get thoughts like those I have to remember how far I've come and how everything was meant to happen just the way it was. I would be nowhere near where I am today if it wasn't for my mental illness. These last three years I've grown more and learned more about myself than in my entire life. I don't think I would have achieved this experience if I stayed in university this entire time. I've grown into an adult and have become the kind of person I've wanted to be. I have full control of what I want to do in my life and am pursuing it.
Yes, I still envy some of my friends who are finishing up university, while I am just starting college, but everyone has their own path. It is taking me much longer to finish school, but I've gone through a lot.
So if you are going through something right now, and it's made you feel behind in life, whether you had to stop going to school or work, don't worry about it. Use the spare time to really get to know yourself more and pursue the things you truly enjoy and new hobbies also. Use this time as a positive time of self-discovery.

Kim Kardashian West reveals Spanx at the opera in Rome with Kanye West
The Spanx are out for Kim Kardashian West!
The 35-year-old reality star was wearing a white, one-shoulder Vivienne Westwood gown with a very high slit that exposed her body shapewear when she went to the the Teatro dell'Opera for the premiere of "La Traviata" with her husband Kanye West in Rome on May 22.
Kim has recently been outspoken about her love of Spanx.
"Sometimes I wear two pairs of body shapers on top of each other—especially when I am heavier I def double it up," she said on her subscribers-only website and app. "My favorite styles are the Body Wrap shorts and the Spanx footless tights."
In fact, she even admitted to wearing two Spanx at once!
"I put one pair on after the other, and if there's a longer pair, I always put those on first. But usually, I wear two pairs that are the same length," she said. "I try not to layer two different lengths, because I don't want there to be visible seams; I want there to always just be one seam."
But now it appears that Kim has done one of her fashion no-nos.
"One body shaping no-no, though, is when the Spanx show," Kim said.
She even thought that she found a solution.
"I just recently got introduced to the footless tights, which I can wear with longer dresses like this—so you'll NEVER see my Spanx line because the seam is lower," she wrote. "I typically like them past the knee or right at the knee."
So what happened here?
It looks like it was just an accident and that she didn't mean to flash the Spanx, because she's also seen holding the top of her slit and adjusting her dress in numerous photos.
And while the Spanx are part of her wardrobe, you could say that the mother of two doesn't even need a pair.
She's back to her pre-baby weight of 135.8 pounds after giving birth to son, Saint West, last December. Kim gained 70 pounds while pregnant, and she credits the Atkins diet for helping her to accomplish her pre-baby goal weight.
After all, Kim is all about her body!
