Study Suggests Climate Change-Induced Drought Caused the Mayan Collapse

The amount of vegetable matter that you need to produce the massive amounts of oil that humans use, would take up all the worlds arable land,leaving us nowhere to produce food for the every expanding population.

For comparison, world oil consumption is 80 million barrels per day, which, shared between six billion people, is 23 kWh/d/p. So even if all of Africa were covered with jatropha plantations, the power produced would be only one third of world oil consumption.

The only thing that seems potentially viable is algae grown in water enriched with co2 captured from industrial plants. But obviously that requires some advanced carbon capture technology. It would also require land, though not as much as other biofuel ideas.

What about algae?

Algae are just plants, so everything I?ve said so far applies to algae. Slimy underwater plants are no more efficient at photosynthesis than their ter- restrial cousins. But there is one trick that I haven?t discussed, which is standard practice in the algae-to-biodiesel community: they grow their algae in water heavily enriched with carbon dioxide, which might be col- lected from power stations or other industrial facilities. It takes much less effort for plants to photosynthesize if the carbon dioxide has already been concentrated for them.

In a sunny spot in America, in ponds fed with concentrated CO2 (concentrated to 10%), Ron Putt of Auburn University says that algae can grow at 30 g per square metre per day, producing 0.01 litres of biodiesel per square metre per day. This corresponds to a power per unit pond area of 4 W/m2 ? similar to the Bavaria photovoltaic farm.

If you wanted to drive a typical car (doing 12 km per litre) a distance of 50 km per day, then you?d need 420 square metres of algae-ponds just to power your car; for comparison, the area of the UK per person is 4000 square metres, of which 69 m2 is water (figure 6.8).

Please don?t forget that it?s essential to feed these ponds with concentrated carbon dioxide. So this technology would be limited both by land area ? how much of the UK we could turn into algal ponds ? and by the availability of concentrated CO2, the capture of which would have an energy cost (a topic discussed in Chap- ters 23 and 31). Let?s check the limit imposed by the concentrated CO2. To grow 30 g of algae per m2 per day would require at least 60 g of CO2 per m2 per day (because the CO2 molecule has more mass per carbon atom than the molecules in algae).

If all the CO2 from all UK power stations were captured (roughly 212 tons per year per person), it could service 230 square metres per person of the algal ponds described above ? roughly 6% of the country. This area would deliver biodiesel with a power of 24 kWh per day per person, assuming that the numbers for sunny America apply here.

A plausible vision? Perhaps on one tenth of that scale? I?ll leave it to you to decide.

How To Buy Gold For Investment ? Best Gold Investment Company ...

Different economies of the world were hit hard and still handling the cost-effective recession. Many strong economies would have crashed when they had not made investments in gold. It really is gold which saves the economies from falling down during such cycles of economic decline.
You need everyone to be happy. You need your seller to earn money, but you will not need him to tear you off. You would like to pay a great price for your silver, so always do research before you decide to buy anything from anyone. Most likely in your area or online there are numerous sellers that sell silver. Many don?t actually sell their silver online because of high transaction fees, so be prepared to contact them and have them any question you want, and depending on feedback you can make a choice whether you?re going to buy from them.

Gold investing is going to be the only purchasing a short while. Wait only a minute, you exclaim! What in the world are you currently discussing? How could gold investing be the sole investing? That produces no sense at all! Well, the reply to that question may seem like it won?t originate from the world, which is partly correct. The entire world as you may know it is about to change and gold investing is going to become the only investing!

The primary incentive for top gold investment demand is the belief the rate of growth of interest in bullion will outpace the availability of gold. The vulnerable economy has compelled the investors to diversify their investment portfolios. Hence, they?ve got rightly looked to gold. The majority of the investors are now holding no less than 10 % of these investment holdings into real bullion or gold related assets. Bullioin is recognized as like an insurance policy against financial and monetary crisis.
The main central banks with the countries of the world are largest those who own the gold. Now these central banks have become bulk buyers of gold rather than being bulk sellers, there?s a resultant spurt inside the gold demand.

Most of the investment experts and consultants nowadays recommend gold investment because of the valuation on gold. Unlike other currencies and materials of financial interest gold never loses it worth and will bring lots of revenue. Value of gold isn?t suffering from inflation or devaluation of money because of it rare or unique existence. Thus, gold investment is a very good option because it may help in securing a good along with a prosperous future.

No. 12 Florida Gators fall to Georgia Bulldogs 76-62

ATHENS, Ga. ? Florida coach Billy Donovan isn't sure if his team is ready for a difficult finish to the regular season.

If the Gators don't get better play from senior point guard Erving Walker, Donovan thinks they could be in real trouble.

"He doesn't understand that his disposition and his carefreeness out there affect the other guys on the team," Donovan said. "And he doesn't see or understand that, as a point guard, people are looking for direction from you."

Freshman Kentavious Caldwell-Pope scored 18, Gerald Robinson added 15 and Georgia snapped No. 12 Florida's three-game winning streak with a 76-62 victory Saturday.

The Gators, who never led, trailed by double digits most of the second half. They whittled the lead to five on Kenny Boynton's 3-pointer with 1:53 left.

But Georgia (13-15, 4-10 SEC) scored the next six. Dustin Ware and Donte' Williams made two free throws each and Caldwell-Pope followed with a breakaway dunk to make it 73-62.

Florida (22-7, 10-4) is second in the SEC, one game ahead of Vanderbilt. Bradley Beal scored 19 for the Gators, who close the regular season this week at Vanderbilt and at home against No. 1 Kentucky.

Florida had won 10 of 12 overall and had taken of 15 of 17 against Georgia, including three straight.

Donovan held out Walker for nearly six minutes of the second half before the school's career assists leader returned to the floor, replacing Scottie Wilbekin with 12:17 remaining and Florida trailing by 12.

"It's not all on him to score and get all the assists and everything else, but I think as a senior you would think he would want to take that responsibility a little bit and show that kind of passion considering that he's got two regular-season games left in his career," Donovan said. "But he didn't do that. I just felt like his energy wasn't where it needed to be. He wasn't playing as passionately as I thought he needed to be, and I just thought I'd give some other guys a chance."

Wilbekin, a sophomore, went scoreless, missing his only shot from the field and handed out one assist in 22 minutes. Walker, who has started 105 of his 136 career games, finished with 14 points and one assist in 31 minutes.

After the game, Walker spoke to reporters before Donovan did.

"Our defense usually gives us easy buckets, but we didn't get that much in transition," Walker said. "I'd just say we missed shots, and they made a lot of plays on the offensive end, and it was tough for us to recover from that."

Germans set to deliver advanced sub to Israel

BERLIN ? One of the world?s most advanced German manufactured submarines is
slated to be sent to Israel this year. German media reported last week that the
68-meter Dolphin submarine, the largest post-World War II submarine to be built
in the Federal Republic, was openly placed in the harbor of the northern city of
Kiel.

The Dolphin submarines are mainly constructed in Kiel, located in the German state of Schleswig-Holstein on the border of Denmark. According to the daily Kieler Nachrichten, the submarine can now be viewed on the harbor compound operated by Howaldtswerke- Deutsche Werft. The highly sophisticated submarine, which is believed to contain secondstrike nuclear weapons capability, is the first of three advanced ?Super Dolphin? vessels to be delivered to Israel?s navy. ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems, the giant German engineering firm, owns the ship manufacturer subsidiary in Kiel.

The Kieler Nachrichten reported that a heavy police presence is guarding the Super Dolphin. Water-based boat patrols, including the police boat Vossbrook, are frequently circling the submarine.

The new Dolphin is a second- generation advanced underwater vessel. Germany?s government has previously furnished Israel with three earlier models of the Dolphin. A fifth Dolphin is slated to be delivered in 2013.

In view of the growing jingoism coming from Iran?s supreme leader, who recently declared that the ?cancerous tumor? of Israel has to be cut away, the timing of the Super Dolphin?s delivery raises new questions about Israel?s strategy to confront Iran?s threats. German media noted that a spokesman from ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems declined to comment on the Super Dolphin.

Germany and Israel have agreed to the delivery of a third Super Dolphin. The Federal Republic will subsidize the sale of the third vessel with a maximum of 135 million euros.

The delivery of the Super Dolphin to Israel is filled with some irony, largely because Iran?s regime as of 2010 maintains a 4.5 percent stock control of ThyssenKrupp. According to ThyssenKrupp?s 2011- 2012 corporate report in connection with Iran sanctions, ?the executive board of ThyssenKrupp AG ordered a review of the business activities with Iranian customers in existence before the tighter trade restrictions came into effect to establish whether they comply with the new laws. In September 2010, it was decided that ThyssenKrupp will not enter into any new transactions with Iranian customers.?

ThyssenKrupp, which was involved in German efforts in World War II and used slave labor to advance Nazi Germany?s military aims, has refused to evict its Iranian government stockholders from its corporate ownership. Anti-Iranian regime critics have slammed the massive steel and engineering giant over the last few years for failing completely to slash its ties with the Islamic Republic.

Using its own technology for electric microgrids

Using its own technology for electric microgrids [ Back to EurekAlert! ] Public release date: 24-Feb-2012

This release is available in Spanish.

The Public University of Navarre (UPNA) and CENER (National Centre for Renewable Energy) are taking part in a joint research project on renewable energy and based on electricity microgrids which enable enhancing energy efficiency, reducing contaminant emissions, increasing safety in supply and minimising electricity losses. The project is co-financed by the Government of Navarre, and by the European Union through its FEDER Funds.

The project, known as "Design, development and implementation of microgrids in Navarre", aims to generate technology and knowledge in the field of generated energy supply and microgrids, which will subsequently enable their transfer to the industrial infrastructure in Navarre. Two electricity microgrids have already been thus installed: one, at the CENER Head Office on the Rocaforte industrial estate in Sangesa, Navarre; the other is on the Arrosadia Campus of the UPNA.

Microgrids even for cities

Microgrids are defined as a series of electrical loads, elements of generated power supply (wind, photovoltaic, fuel cell, microturbine, etc.) and storage elements (batteries, hydrogen, inertia wheel, compressed air, supercondensers, etc.) which, connected to the electric grid by means of a single point of connection, are all linked through a strategy which manages both the flow of energy within the grid as well as the interchange of power with the general supply grid. In this way, microgrids with single family dwellings, offices, industrial estates, blocks of flats, neighbourhoods or even cities can be established.

Of the two microgrids in the project, that of the UPNA, located at the Renewable Energy Laboratory of its Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, is aimed at generic applications and enables emulating and managing various profiles for power generation and consumption, such as single family dwellings, office buildings and small industries. It also includes the capacity to manage, in a co-ordinated manner, thermal systems that normally exist in these types of applications (heating, refrigeration and hot running water), thus forming, in the widest sense, an electrothermal microgrid. Its maximum renewable generated power is 20 kW, obtained from a wind-powered source (a wind turbine) and another photovoltaic one. Involving generator elements that can be managed, it has a 25 kW power generating set and a 5 kW fuel cell system. As regards storage, it has a 72 kWh bank of batteries, a 35.2 Nm3 hydrogen storage system and a bank of 83 F and 194 V supercondensers. Moreover, it has a programmable electronic load that enables the scale reproduction of any consumption profile.

Energy for Rocaforte industrial estate in Sangesa

The CENER microgrid is located at the Wind Turbine Test Laboratory (LEA) and is aimed at industrial applications, supplying part of the electric loads of the LEA installations themselves, as well as of part of the public street lighting of this industrial estate in Sangesa (Navarre). This microgrid boasts a representative selection of power generation, both from renewable sources (notably a roof-installed photovoltaic field and a wind turbine with 25 kW and 20 kW powers respectively), as well as systems of conventional generation, including a 48 kW diesel generator and a 30 kW gas microturbine.

Both installations have great flexibility from the conception and design phase to its launching and coming on-stream, enabling them to operate in different ways and under different settings and thus meet the demands of a top-level test bank. Also notable are the advanced systems of monitoring and control that have been developed, data gathering and registering for each and every one of the relevant electric means at the installations and which, in accord with the corresponding management algorithms, govern and supervise each one of the subsystems making up the microgrids (generation, storage and consumption). In this way they manage to establish a balance between energy generated and energy consumed, as well as the co-ordinated and efficient operation of the microgrids, whether operating connected to the electricity grid or in isolated mode.

The target of both installations is, effectively, to demonstrate the viability of microgrids as a comprehensive, integrated means of energy supply, both for industrial and residential environments, as well as serving as a test bank and laboratory for related technologies. Likewise, it will be possible to draw important conclusions enabling progress to be made in the definition of the standards and procedures for the operation of and communication between the bodies involved in the supply of grid electric energy, as well as defining the needs demanded by the incorporation and integration of these microgrids.

This release is available in Spanish.

The Public University of Navarre (UPNA) and CENER (National Centre for Renewable Energy) are taking part in a joint research project on renewable energy and based on electricity microgrids which enable enhancing energy efficiency, reducing contaminant emissions, increasing safety in supply and minimising electricity losses. The project is co-financed by the Government of Navarre, and by the European Union through its FEDER Funds.

The project, known as "Design, development and implementation of microgrids in Navarre", aims to generate technology and knowledge in the field of generated energy supply and microgrids, which will subsequently enable their transfer to the industrial infrastructure in Navarre. Two electricity microgrids have already been thus installed: one, at the CENER Head Office on the Rocaforte industrial estate in Sangesa, Navarre; the other is on the Arrosadia Campus of the UPNA.

Microgrids even for cities

Microgrids are defined as a series of electrical loads, elements of generated power supply (wind, photovoltaic, fuel cell, microturbine, etc.) and storage elements (batteries, hydrogen, inertia wheel, compressed air, supercondensers, etc.) which, connected to the electric grid by means of a single point of connection, are all linked through a strategy which manages both the flow of energy within the grid as well as the interchange of power with the general supply grid. In this way, microgrids with single family dwellings, offices, industrial estates, blocks of flats, neighbourhoods or even cities can be established.

Of the two microgrids in the project, that of the UPNA, located at the Renewable Energy Laboratory of its Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, is aimed at generic applications and enables emulating and managing various profiles for power generation and consumption, such as single family dwellings, office buildings and small industries. It also includes the capacity to manage, in a co-ordinated manner, thermal systems that normally exist in these types of applications (heating, refrigeration and hot running water), thus forming, in the widest sense, an electrothermal microgrid. Its maximum renewable generated power is 20 kW, obtained from a wind-powered source (a wind turbine) and another photovoltaic one. Involving generator elements that can be managed, it has a 25 kW power generating set and a 5 kW fuel cell system. As regards storage, it has a 72 kWh bank of batteries, a 35.2 Nm3 hydrogen storage system and a bank of 83 F and 194 V supercondensers. Moreover, it has a programmable electronic load that enables the scale reproduction of any consumption profile.

Energy for Rocaforte industrial estate in Sangesa

The CENER microgrid is located at the Wind Turbine Test Laboratory (LEA) and is aimed at industrial applications, supplying part of the electric loads of the LEA installations themselves, as well as of part of the public street lighting of this industrial estate in Sangesa (Navarre). This microgrid boasts a representative selection of power generation, both from renewable sources (notably a roof-installed photovoltaic field and a wind turbine with 25 kW and 20 kW powers respectively), as well as systems of conventional generation, including a 48 kW diesel generator and a 30 kW gas microturbine.

Both installations have great flexibility from the conception and design phase to its launching and coming on-stream, enabling them to operate in different ways and under different settings and thus meet the demands of a top-level test bank. Also notable are the advanced systems of monitoring and control that have been developed, data gathering and registering for each and every one of the relevant electric means at the installations and which, in accord with the corresponding management algorithms, govern and supervise each one of the subsystems making up the microgrids (generation, storage and consumption). In this way they manage to establish a balance between energy generated and energy consumed, as well as the co-ordinated and efficient operation of the microgrids, whether operating connected to the electricity grid or in isolated mode.

The target of both installations is, effectively, to demonstrate the viability of microgrids as a comprehensive, integrated means of energy supply, both for industrial and residential environments, as well as serving as a test bank and laboratory for related technologies. Likewise, it will be possible to draw important conclusions enabling progress to be made in the definition of the standards and procedures for the operation of and communication between the bodies involved in the supply of grid electric energy, as well as defining the needs demanded by the incorporation and integration of these microgrids.

Meadham Kirchhoff London Fashion Week Fashion FAIL

Model London Fashion Week Autumn/Winter 2012 – Meadham Kirchhoff – Catwalk London, England. This is just extreme and not really fashion, if you ask me. Not unless you are planning on going out as IT’s cousin. There are not words. As my husband says, this is considered “high fashion” because you have to be high to wear it. WTF is this even about, totally don’t get it. I understand thinking outside the box, but this is not reality. Why even waste time on such a stupid design that no one will ever wear. Never mind the make up! Any of you wanna give this outfit a try in the real world? Hell, I would love to even see a moive this could be featured in. Complete waste of time. Best fashion fail of the year if you ask me:) Photos: www.wenn.com

Was Einstein wrong - or was the cable loose?

GENEVA/CHICAGO | Wed Feb 22, 2012 9:06pm EST

GENEVA/CHICAGO (Reuters) - The world of science was upended last year when an experiment appeared to show one of Einstein's fundamental theories was wrong - but now the lab behind it says the result could have been caused by a loose cable.

Physicists at the CERN research institute near Geneva appeared to contradict Albert Einstein's 1905 Special Theory of Relativity last year when they reported that sub-atomic particles called neutrinos could travel fractions of a second faster than light.

Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity, which underpins the current view of how the universe works, says that nothing can travel faster than light, and doing so would be like traveling back in time.

James Gillies, a spokesman for European Organization for Nuclear Research, or CERN, said on Wednesday the lab's startling result was now in doubt.

Earlier on Wednesday, ScienceInsider, a website run by the American Association for the Advancement of Science, reported that the surprising result was down to a loose fibre optic cable linking a Global Positioning System satellite receiver to a computer.

Gillies confirmed that a flaw in the GPS system was now suspected as a possible cause for the surprising reading. Further testing was needed before any definite conclusions could be reached, he added.

The faster-than-light finding was recorded when 15,000 neutrino beams were pumped over three years from CERN to an underground Italian laboratory at Gran Sasso near Rome.

"A possible explanation has been found. But we won't know until we have tested it out with a new beam to Gran Sasso," Gillies told Reuters in Geneva.

Physicists on the experiment, called OPERA, said when they reported it last September that they had checked and rechecked over many months anything that could have produced a misreading before announcing what they had found.

A second test whose results were announced in November appeared to provide further evidence that neutrinos were travelling faster than light. But many experts remained skeptical of a result that would have overturned one of the fundamental principles of modern physics.

Edward Blucher, chairman of the Department of Physics at the University of Chicago, said the original finding would have been breathtaking if it had been true. As it was, the research inspired many spirited discussions, if few believers.

"I don't think I met anyone who said I bet it's going to be true. I think the people on the experiment worked as carefully as they could and I think they ran out of ideas of what could be wrong and they decided to present it," he said.

"Maybe they should have waited a few more months," he added.

Gillies said CERN would be issuing a full statement early on Thursday.

How Volcanoes became a Symbol for Revolution

More than a year ago a wave of uprisings and insurrections in the North African countries of Tunisia, Egypt and Libya inspired a cartoon (still visible on the geology blog ?Pawn of the Pumice Castle?) comparing the rage of the people with a sort of magma chamber ready to erupt.

The use of natural forces as metaphor has a long tradition, especially phenomena as fire, floods or storms were often associated with negative historic events like war, invasions or plagues.
During the 18th century the European revolutions against aristocracy and monarchy, especially the French revolution of 1789-1799, changed this negative to a positive view. Now fast occurring social changes were like the positive aftermaths of a disaster or a crisis ? the old is destroyed to make place for the new.
It was still under the impressions left by the great earthquake of Lisbon in 1755 that the metaphors of earthquakes to describe the social revolutions of the time became popular. Like the news of the earthquake the possible social implications of the French revolution were discussed by people from all over the old continent.

?Many parts of Europe are in obvious disorder. In many others there is a dull rumble coming from [the] underground, a faint movement that threatens the political world like a general earthquake.?
Edmund Blurke (Irish philosopher, 1729-1797)

The picture of the volcano as positive symbol of insurrection against social injustice needed more time to become popular. Despite travel accounts and pamphlets, an erupting volcano was a rare event in Central Europe and mostly unknown to the larger public. In contrasts the tumults in Naples of 1647, with the well-known active volcano Vesuvius nearby, were promptly compared to a volcanic eruption by local historians.

Only during the French revolution the term ??ruption? and the metaphor of the volcano is widely adopted by the revolutionaries. Like a volcano spreads unstoppable fires over the landscape also the revolution will spread a purifying fire over the nations, burning to ashes the old establishment and governments.

?In the Royal Palace the most violent invocations followed with tremendous speed, the most violent orators jumped on the tables, inflamed the minds of their audience, which gathered around them, to spread then into the city like the burning lava of a volcano.?
?Histoire de la Revolution de 1789 et de l?Establissement d?une Constitution en France.? (1790)

Fig.1. ?Third eruption of the volcano of 1789, to take place before the end of the world, which will shake all thrones, and overturn a horde of monarchies? by Auguste Desperret (1804-65), lithography published in the magazine ?La Caricature? of June 1833. Only after 1795 depictions of eruptions became commonly associated with social revolutions (see also ?the Volcanism blog? for a further analysis of the image; image in public domain).

Kids and Technology ? Is This Tandem Beneficial? | Computers and ...

Today, technology has played a actual big role in everyone?s life. With online banking, affairs accept never been this accessible and convenient. With eShopping, purchasing appurtenances has never been this far-reaching.

All these abstruse advancements, however, accept placed a able authority to accouchement too. Today, you could hardly see a kid after a PSP, a Nintendo DS or a video arrangement at home. Talk about simple stuff, about every kid has a television or a computer in his room.

Truth be told, kids? admission to technology is both benign and dangerous. Let?s see why.

On a Positive Note

Today, added than ever, kids accept absolute admission to the internet. They can comedy with their video gaming consoles everyday. And of course, they can watch television all day long. As a result, accouchement are apparent to a lot of beheld and audition stimulation.

This is a acceptable thing, because at age 0-6, a kid?s academician is still developing. So they charge as abundant dispatch as accessible to become smarter and bigger individuals.

By actuality apparent to the latest in technology, kids are accomplished ? at an aboriginal age ? about the amplitude and the account of the internet and added video games. Learning becomes multi-faceted as kids today no best abandoned depend on one advisory medium: books.

On a Abrogating Light

Child psychologists and medical practitioners, however, are accepted in anecdotic the abrogating furnishings of too abundant acknowledgment to technology. They argue that too abundant beheld and audition dispatch produces ?addiction-like? effects. Because kids are acclimated to too abundant stimulation, they?d abound restless, afraid and alike advancing back they do not accept this akin of ?input.? This explains why they get annoyed back they are aloof told to break put and not comedy with their PSP?s.

Second, too abundant acknowledgment to technology could baffle with affection time with their families. Instead of spending their time arena or activity to the esplanade with their parents and siblings, kids would adopt to break at home and be in the aggregation of the computer or their home gaming sets.

Psychologists additionally accept that during their development years, kids should absorb added time in alive play, concrete adventure and alike reading. With the attendance of laptops and gaming consoles, however, these activities are set forth the sidelines.

As a result, their amusing abilities maybe affected. Because kids now acquisition added acceptation in arena alone, they would acquisition it adamantine to acknowledge the aggregation of others. Everyone knows that amusing abilities are actual important for one?s success, as such, this has to be developed as aboriginal as 2 years of age.

The appearance of technology brings with it a aggregation of advantages. With technology, bodies are experiencing a bigger affection of life. But as with annihilation else, too abundant of article is bad. Therefore, it is your claiming to apperceive back article is too much, or too little. It is up to you to antithesis the acknowledgment of your adolescent to beheld and audition stimulation. As a parent, it is your alarm to apperceive back advertisement your adolescent to technology would do him added acceptable than bad. That?s the alone way for you ? and your adolescent ? to booty abounding advantage of what technology brings.

Both comments and pings are currently closed.

? The first thing you do when planning a dinner party, is invite your guests. Your guest list will determine what method you use for spreading the word about your dinner party. If it?s for friends you might create an event on Facebook or some other social media website. If you?re inviting coworkers, you might go a more formal route and send personal invitations. And if it?s for family, you might just pick up the phone and call everyone individually.

? Use those same principles when determining the best methods for attracting your families. In the past, families were likely to select your funeral home based on a previous experience they had with your firm or by seeing your ad in the local newspaper or Yellow Pages. Today, 66% of Internet users are using local search to find local businesses. Just by optimizing your web presence, you?ll make it easier and more convenient for your families to find your funeral home website.

Entertain Your Guests

It?s not just about attracting families to visit your website, you want them to be entertained! 75% of the visitors who come to your website to learn more, don?t end up contacting you. But if your families arrive on your homepage and see visually inviting videos explaining the difference between a burial and a cremation service, and the steps they need to take when planning a funeral service, you?ve personalized the information and engaged them!

Cater to Your Guests

? As the host of a dinner party, it?s your responsibility to cater to the needs of your guests. One might want wine to drink, another beer. One might be allergic to shell fish and another might be a vegetarian. In the end, you end up customizing the meal to fit their specific needs.

? Imagine the kind of effect that customization of care could have on your families. Take for instance grief support, each family deals with death in their own way and in their own time. By utilizing your funeral home website to offer personalized support services such as interactive grief videos and daily email affirmations, your families can customize their healing journey, based on the grief they are experiencing.

It might be a bit of a stretch to compare caring for your families to hosting a dinner party, but sometimes it helps to think of it in a different light?especially, when you?re looking for new ways of doing things!
