Glass is everywhere. All countries of the world use glass in their construction projects. National governments finance various reconstruction initiatives. Recently Arizona Glass has learned that St. Petersburg?s Mariinsky Theater will be rebuilt and another scene will be created. Home Repair Glass Arizona decided to take a more specific look on the architectural future of the Mariinsky Theater.

For glass manufacturers and architects, the idea to rebuild the Mariinsky Theater is extremely interesting. It appears that the new scene will actually serve as a new concert hall, with glass walls and a futuristic design. The Mariinsky Theater has a long and rich history; created in the 19th century, the theater is rightly considered as one of the most salient cultural symbols of present day St. Petersburg. The creation of a new scene with glass walls and a futuristic design can inhale a new breath into the theater. It will definitely create a unique architectural synergy and align the new design with the principles and features of the postmodern architecture. Most probably, a futuristic scene surrounded by glass walls will turn the Mariinsky Theater into a complex link between the Petersburg of the 19th century and the Petersburg of today.

Home Glass Repair Chandler is extremely interested in how the new scene will look. They say that the scene will work as a contemporary performance space, supplemented by a roof-top amphitheatre and soaring glass walls. The new scene is expected to attract new audiences, especially younger ones. It will also create a unique precedent of rebuilding historical sites into a place of modern culture and entertainment. The cost of the new scene is estimated at $600 million. Actually, the merger of glass and the historical image of the theater can be compared to a marriage between a young man and a beautiful old woman ? a union that is built on trust, love, understanding and spiritual unity.

Happy Thanksgiving! Like millions of our friends, customers, and suppliers, Arizona Glass is celebrating one of the most interesting and optimistic holidays! On this wonderful day Home Glass Repair Chandler wants to tell a brief story of Thanksgiving and its historical and cultural implications. The history of Thanksgiving dates back to the beginning of the 17th century: the Plymouth Colony was the first to celebrate the holiday in 1621. The goal of the holiday was to celebrate the harvest reaped by the colony residents after a harsh winter. Home Glass Repair Arizona knows that the same year Governor William Bradford proclaimed the Thanksgiving holiday. Now Thanksgiving is an essential ingredient of our national history and culture.

We cannot imagine out lives without Christmas and New Year holidays. Likewise, we cannot imagine our lives without Thanksgiving. Earlier, Thanksgiving was celebrated every year after fall harvests. However, not all colonies were equally committed to the new tradition. It was not before 1777 that all thirteen colonies celebrated Thanksgiving. The holiday was officially declared in 1789. The fourth Thursday of November is forever ?booked? for the Thanksgiving Day. The only thing is that not everyone knows how to celebrate it properly.

Arizona Glass offers a number of recommendations. First, make sure you gather your friends and family members together at one table. Thanksgiving is, probably, the best reason to meet those you have not seen for a long time. In our hectic lives, we often do not find enough time for our dearest ones, but Thanksgiving gives us a second chance. Second, it does not really matter what you cook but never forget about Turkey! Without turkey no Thanksgiving is possible! Finally, and most importantly, be grateful for everything you see on and everyone around your table! And celebrate Thanksgiving with Arizona Glass and a pure heart!

Information technologies are becoming inseparable from our daily routines. Communication and interaction solutions are entering the most unexpected areas of our lives. Glass Replacement Chandler, better than anybody else, knows what it takes to produce innovative glass products. Of particular problem is making these products suitable and usable in individuals? daily lives. Just recently the R&D lab of the New York Times newspaper developed a digital mirror. You can use this mirror to deal with and process your personal data while you are doing your ?morning work?. Just imagine yourself talking to your own digital reflection; the latter helps you to make up your schedule for the day while you are cleaning your teeth and washing your face! Glass Replacement Chandler decided to look deeper into the nature and properties of the product.

Basically, the digitally enhanced mirror has the surface covered with semi-reflective glass, beneath a specially designed graphic digital layer. This is how the mirror can detect the presence of objects and react to gestures. The mirror possesses unique technical and reflection properties: for example, its graphic layer can detect and analyze changes in facial expressions and guess what exactly you wish to do ? sing a song in the shower, find your shaving gel or incorporate changes into your calendar. Definitely, this mirror is a couple of steps ahead of everything we have seen in the glass industry so far. However, as we talk about the usability and suitability of various digital solutions, this invention also raises the question of applicability in routine situations. The New York Times claims that there is still a long way to making the augmented mirror widely applicable. Rather, it is a concept that indicates the direction in which the entire glass industry is currently moving. Nonetheless, it is clear that the invention of such a mirror exposes the complexity of the information-human relationship. Information is becoming more important in human lives. Personally, I am not sure if I wish to have such a mirror in my own bathroom ? I am not confident that the mirror will be able to guess and react to the range of facial expressions I have when I wake up early in the morning!!

Several weeks ago Arizona Glass talked about the growing solar energy market and how glaziers could benefit themselves and solar market players. Home Glass Repair Arizona also mentioned that the solar energy industry was one of the most promising economic sectors in the U.S. Today, we want to update the information, because while the international economy is slowly recovering, the solar market is entering the state of great uncertainty.

Pike Research has recently published its results and forecasts concerning the future of solar power in the U.S. The research suggests that, between now and 2020 the solar energy industry in America will experience considerable fluctuations. Between 2012 and 2013 the U.S. solar market will achieve approximately $5.1 billion, followed by a slow decline that will last until 2016. Then will come gradual growth to about $4.9 in 2020.

Home Glass Repair Phoenix believes that making long-term forecasts is a risky business. We live in the age of uncertainty. Economic and social processes are becoming extremely unpredictable. What is real and realistic today can be sent into oblivion tomorrow. The main question is what glaziers must do to reduce the risks of failure in the solar market.

The best Arizona Glass professionals can do is constantly monitor changes in the market and economic environments. Pike Research predicts that the biggest threat faced by solar power businesses is the rapid decrease in price of PV modules. Only those who can reduce their costs will survive the difficult times. Glaziers can (a) monitor changes in PV prices and costs or (b) cooperate with solar power businesses and propose their own ideas of cost reduction and technical improvements. Wasting of time? No! Cooperation and collaboration are becoming the main factors of business success. Glaziers can benefit from market growth in the solar power sector, if they provide a creative or physical input. Arizona Glass has learned that such collaboration brings huge benefits and strengthens market position.

Every year, millions of Americans wait for their Black Friday. The day that follows Thanksgiving usually marks the beginning of the Christmas shopping season and is the day when everything becomes soooo cheap!! Arizona Glass professionals are well aware of the fuss surrounding Black Friday: we often go to New York to watch and feel the sense of the upcoming holiday. For many of us at Home Glass Repair Phoenix Black Friday indicates the beginning of something imminent ? Christmas and the New Year.

On Black Friday, the major retailers have their stores and departments opened 24 hours. Buyers can go shopping on midnight. This year, 55 million Americans are claimed to have made their purchases on Black Friday. The celebration is on the rise; it is no wonder that many organizations give their employees a day off, so that the latter can buy what they want for a much lower price.

However, nothing is eternal. The retail market picture constantly changes. Every year Home Glass Repair Chandler asks one important question: is it really worth spending hours in line just to get a microwave for $20 instead of $100? Many of you will say ? certainly it is!! Everything is so expensive! The economy is in crisis! Why not spend a couple of extra hours if it can save us at least a thousand? Yet, many others will have a different answer to this question. We at Arizona Glass are learning to make cheap and useful purchases all the year round. We are no longer focused on Black Friday. We learn markets, investigate patterns, monitor changes and discounts, and choose the best option. Thanks everyone, we have the Internet and other means of communications that speed up our trade decisions. We are no traders but simple consumers like everyone else. We just try to use available opportunities timely and wisely. We suspect that, with time, Black Friday will become a matter of the past, although there will always be someone willing to run across miles of shelves with various products and presents.
