The Many Uses of Floor and Window Graphics
No comments · Posted by admin in floor graphics, Window Stickers
When it comes to advertising it is important to use every square inch at your fingertips to get a customer's attention. When a customer walks into a store they instantly receive a lot of messages with their eyes and ears. They may hear something from overhead speakers, see various packaging or assorted signs throughout the store and all of this informs their decision making about where they will go in the store and what they will purchase. If you have something you want to alert customers to or have them go to a certain area of the store to see you have to cut through all of the other noise and get their attention in a unique way. Floor and window graphics can do just that and more. With floor and window graphics, the possibilities are truly endless.
Floor and window graphics can be custom designed and ordered for your specific needs, unique products or special promotions. If you are having a sale or special promotion for a particular brand in the back corner of your store you can use floor graphics to alert them to the sale and lead them all the way to exactly where you want them. The appeal of floor and window graphics is that it is not just another sign posted, it is a fun and unique way to get a customer's attention. Additionally, floor and window graphics can be moved or changed out as you need without causing any damage to the surface they were attached to. Because of this, they are an incredibly versatile and inexpensive form of advertising. Floor graphics are not strictly for indoor use, they can even be applied to concrete outside. Utilize them on the sidewalk or if you have an outdoor event to grab a potential customer's attention. Floor decals can also be used for special events to create a unique setting on things like a dance floor or in the center of a convention. This way, you are able to advertise a business, display a couple's monogram, or send a message to customers or guests that makes a true impact but is not permanent. Customers will also appreciate that they are being informed of where things are and what is happening in the store. No matter what type of business you own, there is a use for floor and window graphics and they can be uniquely designed to aesthetically coordinate with your business's style and customer.
The Main Benefits of Vehicle Wraps
No comments · Posted by admin in Vehicle Wraps
You have probably seen them when you are out driving or parked in the same parking lot. Vehicle wraps are catching on because people are realizing their many benefits. While you have probably seen them used for advertising, they can also be used to create a unique look on personal vehicles as well. You may have seen a vehicle driving by advertising a business such as a handyman service and you may have even decided to give the phone number on the vehicle a call because you needed someone to fix something at your home. Vehicle wraps are an incredible marketing tools and boast a number of other benefits as well. Below we discuss the main benefits of vehicle wraps.
1. Advertising
- When advertising your business you want to maximize every dollar that you spend. The key to advertising is to make the biggest impact as quickly as possible. First impressions are everything and without the right one, your business or brand may go completely unnoticed in spite of how wonderful the service or product is. Advertising a business, no matter what the business is, needs to be eye-catching, professional and well-executed. A vehicle wrap is a great way to achieve all of these things with the added benefit of 24/7 marketing power. Rather than buying a certain timeslot on the radio or television, or putting ads in the paper. A vehicle wrap will advertise your business non=-stop wherever you go at all hours of the day. You can reach a huge audience and you will not have to keep paying advertising fees over and over again each time you need to advertise. With a vehicle wrap you pay for one-time installation and enjoy the benefits of endless advertising again and again.
2. Paint Protection
- Anyone who owns a vehicle, or fleet of vehicles knows that paint can easily get chipped, scratched or fade over time. When paint get damaged it makes your vehicle look less professional and simply like it has not been cared for as well as it could have been. A vehicle wrap offers supreme paint protection for your vehicle to keep it looking its best at all times.
3. Protect Vehicle Resale Value
- A vehicle is rarely something that appreciates in value so you want to do everything you can to protect the resale value of the vehicle so that when it comes time to sell you can get as much money back as possible. A vehicle wrap absorbs the damage that would otherwise be incurred by the paint, serving as the ultimate shield for your paint. Because it shields the paint from damage, when it comes time to sell your vehicle the wrap can simply be removed to reveal pristine paint underneath.
How Custom Signs Set Your Business Apart From Competitors
No comments · Posted by admin in Retail Display
In the business world it is all about standing out from the crowd. To attract more attention to your business and gain more customers you have to first be noticed and seen. Certainly, any old sign could be read and customers might know where your business is but what if they never even see it in the first place? Or, what if it is so generic and boring that they think your business is not really worth taking a look at? Sometimes people make a split decision and in that second that they consider whether or not to come to your business they may look at a sign and use it as a determining factor in their decision. So, what exactly helps someone make the decision come to your business and what drives them away? A custom sign might just be the game changer so it is important for every business to invest in custom signs.
Ask any business owner what one of the most important things you can do to grow your business is and they will tell you it is to build a brand. A brand involves everything from a recognizable logo, to a well-known slogan, to being known for providing a certain service or product. When you build your brand it all becomes synonymous with your name and logo and that is exactly what should be displayed on your custom sign. Your custom sign should be a direct reflection of your business rather than some generic and bland sign that says nothing about what your business is or does. With a custom business design you have the freedom of design control so you can tailor it to your specific business and design needs. Additionally, because you have complete control and freedom you can choose the shape and size of the sign. Want to make a really big impact? Choose a large sign? Have a small storefront? Choose the perfect size sign for your needs so that it all comes together for the perfect customer experience. Ultimately, with a custom designed sign you control the message your customers receive about your business before they even set a single foot inside. Because of this, you help leave a lasting impression with customers which is important because you ultimately want to create repeat customers that come back to you each time they have a need and that also spread the news about your business with others. Brand recall and word of mouth advertising are two things that will inevitably grow your business so the more you can foster them with custom signs, the better. Custom signs are a cost-effective form of advertising that also provide direction and draw people into your business - they will help your business stand out from competitors and make people excited to visit your business.
Benefits of Custom Trade Show Displays
No comments · Posted by admin in Retail Display
In the business world, it is important to network and get your brand out there to as many people as possible. There are many ways to do this but one tried and true way that has stood the test of time is trade shows. Trade shows are a great opportunity to not only make important business connections and network with people in your industry but to attract new customers as well. If you intend to not only attend a trade show but showcase your business, it is important that you stand out amongst the competitors and get noticed. This can prove difficult in a sea of booths with potentially similar products or services so how do you make your business pop and rise above the cookie cutter look that trade show booths often have? Custom designed trade show displays are the answer.
When you have worked hard to establish your brand and promote your product why make it look like everyone else's at a tradeshow with a generic tradeshow display? If you have attended a tradeshow you have probably seen a table with a cover, probably a banner and some propped up board displays in a booth. In fact, that is probably what the majority of the booths at the tradeshow looked like. The problem with this is that even great products get lost in a bland ocean of boring displays and nothing really has a chance to truly "pop." Your unique product has unique branding and with a custom trade show display you can design your tradeshow display to specifically showcase your product and make it catch the eye of passersby. Not only will a custom trade show display properly showcase your product and business but it will look more appealing and professional to potential customers. What better way to network and draw people into your booth than with something that looks polished and professional. A tradeshow display that looks like a high school presentation project will hardly scream "come buy our products!" But a professionally designed display will look like you have invested in your business, that you business is successful and that your product or services are worthwhile and trustworthy. These are exactly the kinds of things that customers, clients and potential networking connections are looking to see and with your custom trade show display, this is what they will find.
While a custom trade show display will cost more upfront, if you intend to attend more tradeshows a custom display will more than pay for itself over time. Each time you have to rent a tradeshow display it will cost money, you will have to reconfigure and setup everything and it will never look quite like it is your own. You will own it so you can tweak and change it as needed should new products or services become available that you want to display. A custom display is an investment that will help your business always look professional without having to constantly reinvest money in tradeshow displays. Additionally, when you design a custom tradeshow display you will be able to use it whenever you need it. If you so choose, you could display your tradeshow display in a storefront, at a convention, or any other location of your choice when it is not being used for tradeshows. A custom tradeshow display more than pays for itself over time and will help generate important networking connections and attract new customers.
Reasons Professional Graphic Design is Important
No comments · Posted by admin in graphic design
These days it seems like everything is at our fingertips. If you decide you want to, you can start a new business, use a template to design a website, order business cards online and have them shipped to your door and off you go. But, generic templates or a shoddy attempt to DIY your graphic design for your business will likely end up in your looking less than professional and possibly giving the wrong first impression. In business, just like in life, first impressions are very important and can mean the difference between someone giving you their business or taking their business to your competitor. Just like you would not ask a hairdresser to do your taxes, or vice versa, an account to cut your hair, you should not try to DIY your graphic design work. Just because you might have photo editing tools or special programs on your computer does not mean you spend years being educated on graphic design and honing your skills. Graphic designers are highly educated and have an artistic talent that has been carefully crafted over time so that they could work professionally as graphic designers. The American Institute of Graphic Arts describes what exactly graphic design is, "Graphic design, also known as communication design, is the art and practice of planning and projecting ideas and experiences with visual and textual content. The form of the communication can be physical or virtual, and may include images, words, or graphic forms. The experience can take place in an instant or over a long period of time. The work can happen at any scale, from the design of a single postage stamp to a national postal signage system, or from a company's digital avatar to the sprawling and interlinked digital and physical content of an international newspaper. It can also be for any purpose, whether commercial, educational, cultural, or political."
Graphic designers are not only artistic but have been trained in the latest technology to ensure they can achieve any artistic creation that a client so desires. Just because you theoretically could do something, like design a logo, does not mean you should. Not only could it take countless hours, days or months to get what you want just right, but it may never truly be "just right." Those hours could be far better spent building your business and promoting your brand. Additionally, in a world with so many competitors with similar products or services, it is important to brand your business so that your customers and clients know exactly who you are, exactly what you do and want to keep bringing their business back to you. Brand recall is one of the most important facets in today's marketplace and one way to achieve brand recall is through creative and interesting branding with logos and other media and that can only be created with graphic design. And not just any graphic design, but fresh, new, innovative cutting-edge graphic design that will help you stand out from competitors and be seen by clients and consumers. A good graphic designer will help you bring your ideas about your business to life and achieve the message that you want to send about your business through imagery and text. Often, a great idea may never be truly heard because it was not communicated properly. Sometimes people are better at thinking of the idea than they are at executing it and that is where a graphic designer comes in. Through their experience and expertise they can help clients realize the true potential of their ideas with graphic design. And ultimately, professional graphic design will simply make your business look more professional and therefore more reliable which attracts more customers. So, rather than trying to save money by doing your own professional graphic design you could be hindering yourself and your business and losing money because your graphic design is failing your business. Professional graphic design is an investment that will pay you back tenfold because it will attract more customers.
Why Custom Signs Are Important
No comments · Posted by admin in Street Signs
When designing a business, many people think about the interior, but the exterior is important as well. If people do not see signs for your business, they may not even know it is there and that is a missed opportunity for a customer. The perfectly place sign will direct customers to your business but signs are not simply utilitarian. Signs are also an important extensions of your brand and help market your business. Signs come in a variety of styles but many of the standard, generic signs do not really do much other than tell the name of your business. To truly invest in your business and promote your brand, a custom sign is the way to go. The investment in a custom design will pay you back again and again as it signals to your customers that you care about every detail of your business and have taken the time and money to make every detail perfect.
Custom signs can be design beyond a simple standard text on top of a single color background. These days, the market is saturated with competitors and it is important to make your brand stand out so that customers remember your brand and want to come back time and time again. Forbes explains the importance of building a brand that people recognize, " In one sense, perhaps the most important sense, a brand is a promise. Think of some top brands and you immediately know what they promise: McDonald's, Coca Cola, Budweiser, Ford, Apple, MetLife. You know what you're going to get with a well-branded product or service. In another sense, a brand is a specific combination of logo, words, type font, design, colors, personality, price, service, etc. It's also a bundle of attributes. Think of Volvo, for instance, and your first thoughts are probably going to be something like "well built, comfortable, Swedish" and, most of all, "safety." The promise, look, personality and attributes can eventually acquire a special patina of what I call "me" appeal. Buying a certain brand says something about the person who buys it. Apple has that patina." People recognize the Apple brand because of the "Apple Symbol" not because of the word, per say. If a sign simple read "Apple" in a Times New Roman font but did not have their classic font or iconic "Apple symbol" people would probably not even recognize that the sign was promoting an Apple store. Brand recognition is important and there needs to be brand consistency across the board, and that includes custom signs. A custom sign is a relatively small investment that will pay off in a big way for your brand and business. Once brand recognition is built, customers will see your logo and may not even need to read your sign, they will simply see your custom sign and recognize it as your business. A custom sign will promote your business in a unique way that standard, generic sign never could and your customers will be excited to come to your business.
Interesting Ways to Use Floor Graphics
No comments · Posted by admin in floor graphics
Every business is looking for a unique way to catch a customer's attention, excite them about a product and entice them to make a purchase. Within a store, you can advertise a product with a sign posted announcing the product or a particular sale you have going on. But, everyone has signs and many customers have grown so accustomed to seeing them that they may look right past them. If you have a new product that you really want customers to see, or a special promotion in a certain area of your store, one way to direct customers right where you want them to go is with floor graphics. Floor graphics are an important part of point-of-purchase advertising and a useful form of marketing for any business. They are easily interchangeable, affordable and unique – essentially, the ideal marketing tool.
One of the more obvious uses of floor graphics is to direct customers to a product or area or to help them find their way to something, such as a bathroom. Helping customers find their way is important but there are certainly more uses. In a retail space where promotions and products are continually changing, removable floor graphics are an ideal choice for promotions. They will immediately draw the customer's eye to what they are announcing and as an added bonus, they are non-slip so they make your retail space more safe in the process. But, a floor graphic does more for a business than direct a customer's attention to a certain area of the store or a specific product. It can also be used purely for decor. Floor graphics can be designed in any finish, pattern, size or shape that you need and many business are choosing floor graphics to personalize their space. A floor graphic can completely altar the feel of a business space and can be used to enhance a reception area and make your customer or client experience ideal. The graphics can be used on almost any surface so they are very flexible and ideal for businesses and venues of all kinds from retail spaces to sporting events. In addition to being useful in your retail space or venue, they can even be used outside to attract and direct traffic to you. They can be applied to concrete so they can go right on the sidewalk outside to let customers know you have a promotion going on which may just entice them to step inside. When you have a new product, promotion or just want to attract interest to your business, consider using floor graphics for a flexible, affordable and highly successful marketing tool.
3 Reasons a Vehicle Wrap is an Ideal Way to Advertise Your Business
No comments · Posted by admin in Vehicle Wraps
We live in a visual culture. Word of mouth is great, but recollection is another thing altogether. For any business and brand, creating brand recall amongst consumers is one of the most important things to do. The market is saturated with many businesses all selling the same or very similar products so how does the consumer choose which brand to purchase? Perhaps they have heard a brand name from a friend and choose to give it a try. But often, they recognize a brand or logo from advertising, assume it is a well-known or popular brand and purchase it. And, when they go to purchase again, they will most likely still recall the image and name and become a repeat customer. Marketing and advertising can be a very costly expense for any business and it can be hard to determine where to spend your marketing money. Should you buy advertising time on television or billboards on the side of the road? Should you place an ad in the local newspaper or in a widely distributed magazine? How can you best reach your target audience? One option many businesses are choosing is to utilize vehicle wraps to advertise their business. It is an invaluable tool and below we will discuss three reasons why a business should use vehicle wraps to advertise and market their business.
1. Reach a Wide Audience
- Advertising sent through the mail will likely make its way into many homes….and then be promptly thrown in the trash. How do you reach a wide audience without spending an arm and a leg? Advertising is important, even for small businesses, but the expense can be too much to swallow for many small or new businesses. Using a vehicle wrap, especially for companies that have cars, trucks or vans already out in the field on a daily basis, is an easy way to reach a large audience. Every time one of your drivers goes from Point A to Point B, they are advertising. Whether it is a personal vehicle wrapped with your business' logo or all of your company vehicles, every time they leave the parking lot or garage, they will be a roaming advertisement for your business that will reach an audience of potential customers from every socioeconomic background.
2. Cost Effective
- Most advertising has to be paid for on a weekly or monthly basis. A radio or television spot will have to be renewed regularly, magazine advertising paid for monthly, and so on. With a vehicle wrap, it is a one-time expense that will keep paying for itself over and over again in new business. You will not have to pay extra for better placement or optimal times, your vehicle wrap will advertise for you around the clock, every day of the week.
3. Appealing Without Being Intrusive
- Many people either tune out advertising such as commercials on television or radio, or are annoyed by them altogether for interrupting something they are being entertained by. It can be aggravating to sort through all of the "junk mail" when looking for urgent mail and people become aggravated with being bombarded by constant advertisement that is in their face. With a vehicle wrap, you will garner attention without shoving your business down someone's throat. Sometimes, your brand may subtly be embedded in someone's mind without them even realizing it because they see your logo on a vehicle and it creates recall later on when they need services or products that your business provides. Vehicle wraps offer the best of both worlds, memorable advertising without being obnoxious.
Benefits of Custom Trade Show Display
No comments · Posted by admin in trade shows
Have you seen that your industry has an upcoming trade show and wondered if you should attend? And, more than attend, if you should have a display at the tradeshow for your business or product? Having a display at a trade show is not without cost, so will the ROI really be worth it? If you have a boring trade show display that does not create any interest or attract customers or other businesses, the answer is probably no. Trade shows are about more than just showing up, you need to make a true impact or you will be lost in a sea of competitors. A custom trade show display will be more than worth the investment and will help significantly increase your ROI.
The market today is often saturated with many similar products, making it difficult for an existing product to stand out and very hard for a new product to make a noticeable splash. A business trying to promote their products or introduce new products needs every advantage they can get when it comes to marketing. Trade shows help connect you with other businesses with which you can work and with potential customers specifically interested in the types of products you sell. Trade shows cut through many steps to put you right in front of your target customer, but without an interesting display, will they even stop by to learn more about your product? A custom trade show display presents you with a unique opportunity to market your products in the best way possible. Every brand has a unique identity and it is important to promote that specific identity down to even the tiniest details. A custom trade show display can be designed so that it best displays your unique products, showcases your brand and logo and draws in the customer. A custom trade show display shows that you have put time and money into your product and communicates to the consumer that you are an authority and are invested in the types of products you sell. Professional, custom trade show displays make your brand look far more reliable and trustworthy and will make a consumer want to learn more. The more consumers that stop by your booth, the more leads that you generate. Because, not only will those that stop by your booth potentially end up purchasing your products, but if you have a unique and interesting booth, they will tell others. The value of word of mouth promotion cannot be underestimated. It is free and it is incredibly effective. When you create buzz about your products and the interesting custom display you have, the more people that will want to stop by and learn more. So, if you are going to invest your money in attending a trade show and displaying your products, as well as your time to travel to the show and be there each day, it had better be well worth it. A custom trade show display will market your brand and product in the most ideal way possible and help you generate more business, and ultimately, a much better ROI.
Tips for Promoting a Product with a Custom Kiosk
No comments · Posted by admin in trade shows
If you go shopping, you are likely to see many kiosks and in fact, so many, you may not even notice them all. And that, is a problem for the product being promoted at the kiosk. A boring, bland kiosk can easily get lost in a sea of other kiosks and advertisements and go unnoticed. Even if it is a truly great product, it may not get the attention or recognition it deserves because of an ineffective kiosk. For this reason, it is always a wise idea to invest in a custom kiosk display to properly promote your product and business so that your product gets noticed, makes and impact, and ultimately, gets purchased.
Money and time is invested in the design of a product, as well as the packaging and marketing materials. You may think those things alone are enough and that the product that you believe in and are proud of will stand out on its own. But often, consumers need incentive to even take a second look at a product. Consumers are being constantly marketed to, at every turn and everywhere they look, so a boring, run of the mill display is unlikely to draw their attention or their money. It is important to not only invest time and money in your product, but in the display that will be promoting your product. A kiosk should be eye catching, vibrant, professional and ultimately, should ideally showcase your product. Perhaps you have a unique product, with a custom kiosk display you can design the kiosk to perfectly display the product. A custom designed kiosk display allows you to showcase your specific brand and attract your target audience. You can tailor the size, layout, design, colors and overall structure to be something that is head-to-toe your brand. When something is so impeccably designed and when a kiosk is configured to perfectly display your products, they will not get lost in the sea of competitors but will make the lasting impact that you hope to generate. Brand recognition creates return customers so that custom designed kiosk will keep paying you back with loyal customers that will want to be return customers. Custom designed kiosks allow you to increase your customer base exponentially while improving their shopping experience because they can truly get excited about the product they are about to purchase. A custom kiosk display is a relatively inexpensive way, compared to other advertising options, to reach a wide and diverse audience that will be genuinely interested in your product because of the quality display.

The Cannes International Film Festival is the most talked-about film festival of the year, where directors from around the world showcase their newest work, from the most challenging art cinema to the big blockbusters. For many years, Roger Ebert and a team of contributors have covered Cannes, and we are continuing that tradition with start-to-finish coverage from around the festival.
CANNES, FRANCE — "Inside Llewyn Davis" tells the story of a folk musician (Oscar Isaac) awaiting a big break that never seems to arrive. Chronically short on cash, mooching off a different friend each night for a couch to sleep on, reluctant to seize promising opportunities or look far beyond the moment, he takes great pride in a level of artistic achievement that probably won't get him anywhere.
That's not the way things worked out for the Coen brothers, who've enjoyed a degree of creative freedom that would be the envy of any filmmaker. But it is a dilemma for which they have sympathy; after all, things could have easily gone the other way.
"We would be the last people to dispute the fact that we've been very lucky," Joel Coen explained in a roundtable interview at Cannes's Carlton Hotel this afternoon. The duo had gathered with Isaac, Carey Mulligan, Justin Timberlake, T-Bone Burnett, and cinematographer Bruno Delbonnel to discuss their film, currently one of the heavyweights for the Palme d'Or on Sunday.
While the brothers' own career had little bearing on the character or story — largely set in 1961 New York — Llewyn's inability to break through is one of the things that appealed to them dramatically. "Making a movie about someone who's not successful, who isn't very good at what they do isn't very interesting," Joel says. "But making a movie about someone who's not successful who is very good at what they do is interesting."
The movie returns the Coens to the existential-anxiety mode of "Barton Fink" and "A Serious Man." Like those films, it puts its protagonist through a wringer of frustrations that might take even Kafka aback. To hear the brothers tell it, the connection to those films is more tenuous than early reviews might suggest. "Barton Fink is just a little too self-important as an artist to get much sympathy," Ethan says. "We like the put-upon people. We like to inflict pain on the characters. I don't know — somehow that just seems a story thing. What happens next?"
"Somebody did point out," Joel adds, "and it was very interesting to us, because we hadn't realized it, that whenever we make a movie about an artist we inflict John Goodman on them." (Goodman has a role as a gasbag bluesman with whom Llewyn Davis shares a long car ride from New York to Chicago.)
The project has made them into amateur historians on the period. When prompted, Joel goes on about parallel developments in jazz and abstract expressionism that were also happening in New York at the time. "There were some points of intersection, and at some times they had absolutely nothing to do with each other," he says. None of the musicians in the film has a perfect real-life counterpart. They were after a feel — or in the case of Mulligan's not-quite-love interest, the "Village girl look."
"There was also a political factionalism we kind of thought maybe the movie would get into, but it never really did," Ethan says.
A colleague asks if the duo has softened — this is certainly a more mellow, low-key Coen brothers movie than we're used to. "There's something I've noticed [that's] very interesting to me," Joel says. "We make a movie, and often people will say, 'This is a Coen brothers movie for people who don't like Coen brothers movies.' And I've been reading that for 15 or 20 years now, as each one successively comes up. What's the originating sort of thing of that? Anyway, it's a little puzzling."

Paris Hilton
It's almost time for Paris Hilton to come home. She is scheduled to be released tomorrow (Tuesday) after serving 23 days in jail. And in the final hours of her stay at the correctional facility, Paris is enjoying the company of her family and friend Ashley Scott.
Scott visited Paris last night, around 7:15pm. She talked with the Simple Life star for about 45 minutes before saying goodbye. And it seems the visit was emotional for both of them.
With tomorrow being the final day in jail for Paris Hilton, the hotel heiress has been busy figuring out how to capitalize on her recent experiences.
Now that deals with NBC and ABC have fallen through, Mike Sitrick, a spokesman for the Hilton family, announced that Paris will be giving her first post-jail interview to CNN's Larry King on Wednesday night (June 27).
From her recent accounts to press, it would appear that Paris Hilton has gained some valuable perspective from her time in jail. And she's been vocal about how going without has made her appreciate what she has.
"I'm so much more grateful for everything that I have, even just to have a pillow at night or food. You know my gratitude has gone up so much and I just realize that the media used me to make fun of and be mean about it."
You gotta wonder what Paris Hilton is up to behind bars. She doesn't have her Sidekick, or Tinkerbell to keep her company. But she does have tons of fanmail, and she's using her time in jail to write back to her fans.
Ryan Seacrest even read one of Paris' letters that was sent to him via his radio show. "Just wanted to thank you for your kind words of love and support. The fact that you took time out of your day to write me truly means the world, especially in such a difficult and scary time of my life.'"
When you're behind bars and it's Father's Day, what do you do for your dad? Paris Hilton tried to cushion the blow of missing the day by making her dad a card with his picture on it. Awwww.
The Parents Hilton showed up at the jail around 7:15 pm to see their daughter. And Rick was understandably glum having his daughter in jail. "It's not ideally my best," he told reporters about this year's Father's Day.
It seems as though Paris Hilton has finally gotten over the party lifestyle that has made her famous. After just a few days behind bars, she has found God and claims that she's "not the same person I was." This all according to interview legend Barbara Walters, who got a phone interview with the heiress earlier this week.
"I used to act dumb. It was an act. I'm 26 years old, and that act is no longer cute. It is not who I am, nor do I want to be that person for the young girls who looked up to me."
If you're keeping score, it's Judge 2, Sheriff 0. That's right, Paris Hilton was ordered to go back to jail, and to appear in person for her court hearing on Friday. The sheriff who allowed Hilton to leave early has had his decision revoked by the judge who originally sentenced her.
So Paris spent this past weekend in prison, and there wasn't much fanfare. She received a visit from her sister Nicky and her ex-boyfriend Stavros Niarchos III. Paris got to spend a little time with them yesterday, which has hopefully calmed her down a bit.
Paris Hilton has been ordered back to jail. Taken out of the courtroom screaming, the heiress is returning to her Los Angeles County Jail suite to finish out her sentence.
The real kicker... Paris is not just going to have to finish out her 23 day sentence, as Judge Sauer hit her with her full 45 days in lockup. As reported by Fox News, Hilton left the courtoom in tears, screaming, "It's not riiiigggghhhhtttt," followed by, "Mom, Mom, Mom."
Just when we thought that Paris Hilton was going to be locked up for her full sentence, she goes and gets a medical condition. That's right, Paris is in jail no more.
The heiress was released from the Century Regional Detention Facility in suburban Los Angeles just after 2am. She was fitted with an electronic monitoring ankle bracelet to keep her under house arrest.
With Paris Hilton's prison sentence beginning Sunday night after her appearance on the red carpet at the MTV Movie Awards, it was a toss up whether or not she would be able to handle life behind bars.
But according to her attorney, Richard A. Hutton, things are going well for the Simple Life star. "She's using this time to reflect on her life, to see what she can do to make the world better and, hopefully, in my opinion, to change the attitudes that exist about her among many people."

Todd Melby wants to tell small stories. Hardly an impossible goal for a journalist, but when you're looking at something as big as the explosion in oil drilling in North Dakota, the scale of the story can get out of hand. In less than five years, the state has tripled its oil production; the Census Bureau estimates western North Dakota (where the oil is) will see its population increase by 50 percent. Big story.
So Melby decided to to tell the macro story in a micro way, focusing on the roughnecks who come to North Dakota in search of jobs, the daily experience of working on an drilling rig, and the families whose lives are upended by the oil patch. The result is Rough Ride, a multimedia experience that takes an intimate, documentary-esque approach to telling the story. Split into a series of chapters, Rough Ride divides up the various players and scenes found throughout North Dakota's rapidly expanding oil country, intertwined with interactive graphics, photography, and first-person video.
(It's not something easy to embed in an article like this; you really do need to go to the site and let it play to get the experience. Go full screen if you can. It's immersive in a way that a 600-pixel-wide frame can't be.)
Melby produced Rough Ride in partnership with Prairie Public Broadcasting, the Association of Independents in Radio (AIR), and Zeega, the interactive storytelling platform that won a Knight News Challenge grant in 2011. Rough Ride is part of a larger project called Localore, a multimillion dollar experiment in locally focused public journalism across 10 stations in the U.S. Individual producers like Melby are working with stations to combine audio, broadcast, and digital production to increase engagement in local communities.
The reason Melby was so interested in the story was simple: He's a native of the Roughrider State. "It's a huge, important, story from North Dakota's perspective. It's a story that's changing the state's history," he said. "Everything about North Dakota is changing because of the oil boom."
"I wanted to do small stories, those personal stories where you could see the boom through these people's eyes."
The heart of the boom is three hours from Melby's hometown, and it's there where he started his reporting by chatting up people in shops, gas stations, and parking lots, eventually finding his way into their homes. Melby created the ongoing series Black Gold Boom, working primarily in audio and photography and producing stories for radio that aired on Prairie Public Broadcasting as well as shows like Marketplace. For Rough Ride, Melby wanted the story to be close and personal, so he brought on photographers Ben Garvin and Philipp Batta to help shoot video.
"So many stories written about oil production are what the numbers are, the new record, the housing," he said. "I wanted to do small stories, those personal stories where you could see the boom through these people's eyes."
Using Zeega, Melby and his team were able to give the story that immersive feel. Rough Ride unfolds not in a video player, but across the entirety of your screen, giving it a cinematic quality. Each chapter is bracketed by interactive elements, data showing the growing pace and impact of oil production, and first-person accounts of life on an oil rig. (I recommend spending a few minutes watching the one inside the "man camp" where roughnecks live.)
Rough Ride and the other Localore projects are glimpses of what Zeega, which was developed through funding from Knight Foundation and other sources, is capable of. It's a kind of open web toolkit that allows anyone — journalists, documentarians, enthusiasts — to produce this sort of multimedia story. The platform is part repository, part workshop, allowing users to pull in video, photography, sound, and other elements that are freely available on the web. It's a flexible tool: While Rough Ride was a linear story that followed a more traditional framing, something like the Austin Music Map, another Localore project, is more of a choose-your-own-adventure.
At the moment, the team behind Zeega is still preparing the product for an official launch and is working on securing funding. They envision Zeega as be something akin to SoundCloud, equal parts community and work space, where producers can create projects and share material. Jesse Shapins, Zeega's chief strategy architect, said working on the Localore projects has been a great way to showcase how versatile the platform can be. For Rough Ride, he said the needs of the story drove what was included in the interactive elements. Multimedia experiences, Shapin said, are about finding the right balance between editorial decisions that direct the story and giving people choices in how they experience it. "I think what it shows is the potential, basically, for being able to have a slight degree of interaction to enrich what is a very cinematic story," he said.
In the next month, more Localore projects will be launched, including Sonic Trace, a look at the past and future of Latin American immigrants living in Los Angeles, as well as ReInvention, a multi-part story on how the people of Dayton, Ohio, have dealt with economic upheaval. Sue Schardt, AIR's executive director, says Localore shows how public media, both individual producers and stations, can adapt to change in the media industry. It's a double benefit, she said, because stations are able to tell untold stories and experiment with new technologies and platforms.
As a project, Localore is designed to help stations step outside of the daily news cycle and think broadly about how they are serving their communities, and what they'll need to continue to do that in the future. Schardt said there is a sense of urgency from local stations that the time to act is now. "There's a consistency," she said, "It's that the stations — they're craving innovation and pursuing it, to varying degrees."

Hayli feels especially pretty in her new Christmas dress, I think she is, too!
I had an interesting experience today. On the way home from riding my horse, I stopped by a doctor to have them look at my finger. I did not have an appointment. The receptionist looked at me and said "We are a family practice. We don't take people off the street." The way she said it rather ticked me off. I suppose I smelled like horse. She could have at least directed me to a doctor or emergency room that would look at it. Oh, well. I should have went into the emergency room when it happened. But I did not want to have my finger in a cast for the holidays. So it is my own fault.
Thank you so much for your comments past and present, and a special thanks to those of you that have been commenting on my work for years!!! I really appreciate it!

She looks so fabulous and glamorous in that dress. Really nice work and such a joyous image.
It's not your fault, it sounds like the receptionist is the one who needs to be looked at. If you came in bleeding would she be that indifferent? I deal with nutjobs and wacky people daily at my job and I still could not imagine acting that way towards someone, especially if you're in the health profession. I'm with Rayvn on that. You should inform her boss. Who knows, he might be a douchebag too. Maybe she saved you!

Beautiful work. Really a lovely lady and scene. I agree with the others who say what ever happened to "Do no Harm." I think the Doctor, with the Medical Board CC'ed should get a formal letter as to why you were turned away with no direction as to what you should/could do.

Love the dress, the hair, the face the arms/hands... background is perfect with this. I've commented for years, and I've tried not to miss any uploads, but I can't do that anymore... I'm trying to trade a comment for a comment, but when I'm relaxed and caught up on things I'll look at my friends galleries. I'm glad I saw this one, gorgeous.... ...and I hope it was your middle finger that you wanted them to look at and I hope you kept putting it in the receptionists face - lol... you didn't tell us how you hurt it... is it broke? bleeding?

Biotech council's Reidy resigns
A high-ranking official of the Massachusetts Biotechnology Council has resigned just weeks after the industry group named a new president.
Eustacia Reidy, chief of external affairs at the MBC, stepped down from her full-time post last week and plans to instead serve the organization as a part-time consultant while she pursues other interests, said John Lacey, a spokesman for the council.
Reidy joined the biotech council in 2004 as a policy staffer and was named chief of external affairs last year under former MBC president Thomas Finneran, the one-time Speaker of the Massachusetts House of Representatives.
Last month the council appointed Robert Coughlin, a member of Gov. Deval Patrick's administration, as its president. He replaces Finneran, who ended his run with the group in January after pleading guilty to a felony charge of obstruction of justice in relation to statements he made in a civil case.
Reidy, 31, did not return calls for comment. She has served as the No. 2 in command under the council's chief operating officer Mark Robinson and has led the group's efforts on Beacon Hill since Finneran's departure, Lacey said.

Family Traveling with Teens
This hotel is a beautiful hotel. The rooms are clean and nice, staff is very friendly and helpful.
February 9, 2012
Solo Traveler
This hotel was so magnificent that I was actually embarrassed at how little it cost me. The rooms are large, quiet, clean and the equipment was easy to use. The pool table and equipment are top quality.
September 29, 2011
After staying in over a dozen of 4 Star hotels of varying brands I can definitively say, this is the absolute best hotel experience of my life. The rooms are great. I got to stay in their Contemporary room my first night, and then the Colonial room for the rest of my stay; both are top notch. The service was truly unbelievable, from the moment you walk in you are pampered. We got cocktails, hand sanitizer and hand towels at the check-in. The staff helped with our transportation, tours, food suggestions; they did everything! The room was serviced during the day, and again at night. They paid extreme attention to detail; right down to the nightly chocolates on the bed that wish you a good night. The bellhop Francisco made the experience for us; he toured us through the hotel, and then explained every feature and amenity in the room as he tested them. On rainy days, he'd lend us umbrellas; on hot days we'd come in sweating from the tours, he'd bring us cold face towels. The room service was also incredible, they satisfied my odd requests, punctually, even at the oddest hours. I'm amazed they provided this level of service; I had truly never even imagined this level of service existed, especially not for the price I paid through priceline. ...
