MONHEGAN ISLAND, Maine (NEWS CENTER) - Tucked into Maine's midcoast and about an hour away from mainland by ferry is a gem of an island that's hosted an artistic community for nearly 4 centuries.
Monhegan Island attracts tourists because while nearly everything has changed in the world in the past 400 years, many parts of the island have remained the same.
Marnie MacLean visited the island to experience what makes it so special.

sturdy case
By BEVERLEY
from MISSISSAUGA
material of the case is sturdy enough to protect the camera if you drop it. My concern is that the strap connection to the case may give way over time. A little larger than some other cases.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Easy Fit
By Sue
Like the compact size and the protective styling. Goes in purse or jacket pocket with ease. Doesn't take up much room in your purse, which is great considering all the other "necessities" we carry. Bought it in red so very easy to locate.
Very compact
By Margaret
from Ottawa(On)
I like how well the padding protects the camera. The zip closure is easier to use than a dome type of system. This case is the perfect size for putting in your pocket or handbag.

While yesterday's gift guide focused on the Up-and-Comer, today's is about the woman who's a bit more established in her career and family: the Mega Mom! Just like Beyonce Knowles, the songstress with stroller in hand, this do-it-all dynamo has mastered the art of chic, around-the-clock style. With the Mega Mom's packed schedule in mind, we looked for practical pieces with a touch of glamour, including a particularly luxe pair of high-tops and a gorgeous carryall in a rich emerald hue. Keep reading for details, and check out even more spot-on suggestions in today's slideshow.Ileana Makri Pink & Gold Diamond Spiral Drop Earrings ($3685)
On the occasional date night, the Mega Mom needs a decadent bauble to jazz up her look. Ileana Makri's earrings--delicate diamonds worked into an intriguing spiral shape--would make a classic addition to her jewelry repertoire, while Alexis Bittar's Crystal Encrusted Hoop Earrings ($195) in Rose Gold make a lovely, more wallet-friendly alternative. Now, all the Mega Mom needs is a great babysitter...
Marni Shopper Bag ($470)
Now here's a gift to indulge the Mega Mom who has it all! Patent eco-leather makes Marni's satchel a pragmatic choice (think: spill-resistant) for any mom who needs her bag of tricks. It's a truly refined alternative to an everyday diaper bag.
A.L.C. Leopard Print Calfhair and Leather Jacket ($1595)
Who's got time to change outfits from an afternoon school pick-up to evening soiree? A.L.C.'s tailored moto jacket is the kind of memorable transitional piece that makes day-to-night dressing a breeze.
Bodas Silk-Satin Pajama Set ($295)
When it's time for this supermom to relax, she'll love you for gifting her Bodas' chic sleepwear set. It's nothing too intricate, just a silky camisole and shorts that exude simple allure.
Brian Atwood for Target + Neiman Marcus Holiday Collection Sunglasses ($40)
Fun sunglasses bring out the Mega Mom's playful side, so these shades with round, rhinestone-studded lenses are the perfect pick.
BIRD by Juicy Couture Leather Legging Pants ($998)
These pants' stretch leather and angular seams allow ease of movement, ideal for an on-the-go mom. But we love their versatility most of all: pair them with flats and a t-shirt for an errand run or polished pumps and a blazer for an office meeting.
Don't Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late! ($10) by Mo Willems
For a thoughtful present that both mom and kiddos can enjoy, get her Mo Willems' bestseller about a bird trying to escape his inevitable bedtime. It's a charming, clever tale that every child can relate to.
Pierre Hardy Leather-Trimmed Canvas High-Top Sneakers ($495)
Mega Moms are constantly on the hunt for pieces that merge style and practicality, so Pierre Hardy's cool kicks are a no-brainer. The sneakers speak to fashion's current infatuation with the luxe sporty trend too.
Dior Diorific Long-Wearing True Color Lipstick ($36) in Soft Red
Dior's limited-edition Soft Red is a universally flattering shade--but it's the elegant gold tube that caught our eye. Pulling this out for touch-ups will make even the most harried mom feel glamorous.--Tiffany Tse

Lori AnnHairDark BrownNormal HairWorth The Price!!I was a little hesitant about buying these rollers because they were expensive and I assumed they would be like the satin rollers I already have; however, I decided to give it a try and they are not! I love these rollers! They don't get tangled in your hair, they don't dry your hair out, the satin encasing does not move or shift exposing the foam. They stay in with my satin bonnet I wear at night. This was well worth the price!

PatriciaCAHairBlackCurly HairColor Treated HairAwesome ProductThese rollers are amazing. They totally encapsulate the entire roller including the outer edges and prevent the hair from wrapping around the edges and breaking. Removal is a breeze and I never worry about tearing my hair. The rollers are covered in silk instead of satin. My roller application is so simple, they keep my hair so soft, and helps maintain my hairs body and shine.
They are expensive, but they are definitely worth it! I've used similar versions of "satin" rollers. The other brands only covered the outside of the rollers and not the edges. The edges of the "satin" would also eventually wear away on the edges, and the threads would attach to my hair and tear and pull my hair when removing. Also, your hair could attach and to the plastic roller stem and clasp, wrap around it, get twisted and break/damage your hair.

|Boone Family Saved by NFL Rookie On I-40
|Written by Steve Frank
|Friday, 26 July 2013 06:20
A family from Boone were pulled over on I-40 in Tennessee by NFL rookie Jonathan "Tig" Willard, who noticed their car was on fire—and made national news on Good Morning America. The former Clemson University linebacker, 23, was headed to the Tennessee Titans'
training camp in Nashville, Tenn., Tuesday night, when he saw the SUV in flames near Oak Ridge, Tenn "The car in front of me just started smoking," Willard said. "Once I rushed to the car, I saw that there were three little kids in the back seat. The adrenaline just kicked in. I was just on 'go' mode."
Cheri Hubbard of Boone was driving with her three young children to visit their dad when her engine suddenly caught fire, "They were God sent. It was a miracle that they were there." By the time the fire was out, there was only a charred frame of the SUV left behind. "The whole front end of the car was just about ignited," Hubbard said. "The tires started popping one by one. It was really scary." Willard, along with Clint Dowty from White House, Tenn., helped pull the family, including a toddler, and their pet Chihuahua to safety, as flames engulfed the vehicle. The family was saved—their SUV—totaled in the fire.

Chances are, if youre reading this, youve played electronic drums before. Maybe they felt so natural that you forgot whether were playing acoustic or electronic drums. But, wed wager that youve never played a cymbal pad that truly felt like an acoustic cymbal.
The reason some electronic drums can feel like acoustic drums is that they use the same materials: tension-adjustable drumheads, steel counterhoops, and other familiar components. The idea of an electric guitar with rubber strings made us cringe, and thats the logic we applied to developing SURGE Cymbals.
Forget those uninspiring, black, rubber discs. SURGE is the genuine article. We start with true cymbal-brass alloy discs and lathe them for the flexible stick-on-metal feel youre used to. Then we add a sound-dampening layer that dramatically cuts the cymbals acoustic noise. Finally, we mount customized piezo triggers to the underside in rugged, ABS housings so the electronics will withstand whatever even the most enthusiastic Keith Moon understudies dish out.
Taking acoustic realism one step further, we also developed models with giant choke strips on the underside. No guessing or aiming. Just grab the cymbal and the sound stops. We even have a dual-zone Ride so you can trigger bell and bow sounds from one cymbal.
SURGE Cymbals are compatible with most drum-sound modules including those manufactured by Roland, Yamaha, Ddrum, and, of course, Alesis. SURGE Cymbals can also be used to trigger sounds on any MIDI instrument using a trigger-to-MIDI interface such as the Alesis Trigger|iO.
The cymbals can be mounted on nearly any cymbal stand using the usual cymbal-stand hardware a wingnut, felt washers, a curved-metal washer, and a protective sleeve. We like flared-base sleeves, but you can also use separate cupped washer and sleeve combinations. You can also use Aquarian Cymbal Springs if you prefer their feel. We especially like them on SURGE Cymbals being used as chinas.
For complete instructions on configuring your sound module for optimal response with SURGE Cymbals, setup tips, and notes on cleaning and transport, check out our SURGE Cymbals Setup Guide.
SURGE Cymbals simple mounting and acoustic-cymbal appearance makes them easy to integrate into your electronic or acoustic setup using clamp-on cymbal arms or full cymbal stands. Only need a splash for one song in the set? Dont want to carry around wind chimes to your next gig so you can use them once? Add a SURGE 13 Crash Cymbal to your setup. Need a Terry Bozzio-esque dry china for one song, and then a 40-inch orchestral gong for the end of the show? Dial it up with SURGE Cymbals and leave the gigantic gong mallet at home.Click here to learn more about SURGE Cymbals.

V9E SR. - Grip
Hockey Sticks
The V-Series has been completely redesigned around the correct shooting technique, focusing on puck position, blade angle and energy transfer. The V9E features a Tuned Shaft Flex Profile for a lower kick-point, storing more energy in the taper.
- NEW: HYPERTOE™ – Tapered rib design to increase velocity off the toe
- NEW: Segmented blade core with Airex foam for improved response and feel
|The most popular pattern in hockey. The rockered base of the blade allows you to keep the puck toward the toe and lift the heel off the ice in order to load the blade. Whether you're going high or low, with your hands in the right spot out in front of the puck, you will look the same to the goalie.
|A straighter curve and very slight rocker puts more blade on the ice for handling the puck on both sides. The lie keeps your stance low to the ice and gives you good reach to go around defenders.
|Built for shooting off the heel, the puck is loaded at the base of the shaft yielding heavy shots. Loading behind the puck creates a low trajectory for getting shots through to the net from the point.
|Smaller paddle size intended for quick hands and precision puck handling. Basic mid-curve allows for shots to come from anywhere on the blade.
|This is the fastest growing pattern for elite players around the world. It not only keeps the puck on the toe for accurate snap shots, but the open face also forces your hands out in front of the puck to maximize the load and release of the stick. Built for players to seamlessly adjust as they grow into Int and Sr sticks.
|A versatile mid curve great for handling the puck in all aspects of the game. The dual lie helps position the puck on the toe to load the blade. The Jr was developed with more curve in the toe to give younger players more control over the puck as they are developing their shooting technique.

Is Chrome Dead?I am pleased to announce after a ten year run chrome plated wheels are officially uncool. At least in the West Coast. Chrome plating and the West Coast just don't mix.
Our climate loves to kill chrome. Salt and water are the perfect catalysts to start the pitting and peeling that comes with chrome wheels running through our winters. Most car manufactures have learned this lesson the hard way and now offer their chrome wheels as plastic cladding not plating. This is a step up from a hubcap but not much of one.
Customers are moving away from chrome and into diamond cut and satin paint finishes. Ironically some of the first custom wheels in the early 80's were finished the same way. Some of you might remember the first generation of Fittipaldi, Enkei or Momo wheels. Paint finish and quaility of clearcoats was of parmount importance, not a layer of tinfoil wrapped around your wheel.
Chrome is now used a an accent on wheels. Chromed stainless steel lips and windows are a good example. The plating bonds to stainless steel and plastica offering a much lower maintenance cost compared to chromed aluminum.
For some hot new trends in wheel finishes check out: and
Leave the chrome for the gansters..

The Thousand Islands Bridge Authority gets richer while the Alexandria Central School District gets poorer.
Thats the contention of Dean A. Erck, a resident of the village of Alexandria Bay and father of a student in the district.
During the September meeting of the Jefferson County Board of Legislators, Mr. Erck said TIBA had reneged on key promises contained in a 1977 agreement that enabled the authority to acquire Boldt Castle, Boldt Yacht House and associated properties as a gift from the Edward John Noble Foundation.
The transfer had to be approved by what was then known as the Jefferson County Board of Supervisors.
As part of that arrangement, TIBA agreed to make payments in lieu of taxes to the municipalities and school districts in at least the same amount as they would receive in taxes if the 1977 assessments on the properties were to continue.
As a public benefit corporation, TIBA does not have to pay taxes or make PILOT payments. In spite of this, the authority agreed in 1977 that No taxing authority will be penalized by reason of the Authoritys statutory exemption from taxes to demonstrate its deeply engrained sense of civic responsibility.
TIBA also agreed that after making immediate improvements to the property, which had fallen into disrepair by the late 1970s, it would continue only limited restoration projects and would increase its PILOT payments according to periodic reassessments of value.
But in the ensuing years, the authority never increased its PILOT payments and continued to acquire land and make unnecessary investments while the school districts and municipalities suffered, according to Mr. Erck.
Were having trouble keeping our school lunch program going and theyre building a new kitchen, he said.
Mr. Erck was spurred into action after TIBA purchased Blue Heron Boat Works LLC on Wellesley Island from Thomas B. Inglehart. TIBA paid $750,000 for the Boat Works and $350,000 for an adjacent property also owned by Mr. Inglehart.
It then closed the site to the public and allowed only certain people access to the boat slips, according to Mr. Erck.
Robert G. Horr III, executive director of TIBA, is perplexed by Mr. Ercks allegations.
The Blue Heron properties were purchased to support Boldt Castle maintenance operations, Mr. Horr said.
Maintenance, woodworking and paint shops associated with the Boldt Castle property previously were housed in the Boldt Yacht House.
Mr. Horr said the storage of flammable materials in such a historic structure was dangerous.
When the opportunity to acquire an alternative location came up, TIBA jumped on it, Mr. Horr said.
The property is left open to the public in the summer but closed down in the winter to prevent vandalism; Mr. Inglehart used to live on the property, which may help to explain why it was accessible year-round, Mr. Horr said.
Some of Mr. Ingleharts former customers are allowed to use the boat slips, but the other vestiges of the Blue Heron operation, including gasoline pumps, were removed, according to Mr. Horr.
The Blue Heron property was assessed at a little over $250,000 at the time of the TIBA purchase, according to Paul J. Warneck, director of Jefferson County Real Property Tax Services.
As compared with the $487 million worth of taxable property in the town of Alexandria, the loss of the Blue Heron property from the tax rolls is minimal it amounts to about 5/10,000 of a percent, Mr. Warneck said.
According to its fiscal year 2013-14 report, TIBA will make $150,000 in PILOT payments this year and next year, including $50,000 to Jefferson County, $34,000 to the LaFargeville Central School District, $8,000 to the town of Orleans, $11,000 to the town of Alexandria, $12,000 to the village of Alexandria Bay and $33,000 to the Alexandria Central School District.
According to the 1977 agreement, TIBA voluntarily paid Jefferson County $40,000, the town of Orleans $5,000 and the town of Alexandria $1,000 for a total of $46,000.
The Authority intends to increase those payments to at least $55,000 during the current fiscal year, and to about $105,000 in the following year, based upon its projected financial ability to do so, according to the document.
Other than the LaFargeville Central School District, no other taxing jurisdictions have tried to renegotiate their arrangements with TIBA, Mr. Horr said.
Mr. Horr said that the authority would be receptive to such requests.
We would take a look at it, a request from a municipality to do that, he said.
Mr. Horr also said that Mr. Erck, who came to a recent TIBA meeting, had not spoken to him or any other member of the authority about his concerns.
Mr. Erck said he is appealing to the Jefferson County Board of Legislators because it provides oversight over TIBA.
Jefferson County does appoint four of the seven members of the TIBA board, but its oversight ability ends there, County Administrator Robert F. Hagemann III said.
As a public authority, TIBA operates independently of the county.
According to the state comptrollers office, Public authorities have various levels of autonomy from the State based on the powers, as well as the constraints, built into their legislative mandate ... Unlike traditional State agencies, many authorities conduct business outside of the typical oversight and accountability requirements for operations, including, but not limited to, employment practices, contracts and procurements procedures, and financial reporting.
The Public Authorities Reform Act of 2009 tightened some state oversight requirements over public authorities and strengthened the New York State Authorities Budget Office, whose mission is to make public authorities more accountable and transparent.
The officers of TIBA apparently recognized in 1977 that their acquisition of the Boldt properties would open them up to criticism immediately and in the decades to come.
The move is expected to subject the Authority to continuous and damaging criticism, regardless of the amount of skill and ingenuity which may be demonstrated, according to a portion of the original agreement.
Since 1977, TIBA has invested more than $40 million in the properties, Mr. Horr said. The Boldt facilities brought in more than $1.6 million in 2011 and 2012 and cost slightly less to operate.
The Boldt Castle and Yacht Club remain one of the Thousand Islandss most successful tourist draws.
The sites welcomed more than 190,770 visitors last year, according to castle operators.
Mr. Erck said he will continue to fight to see TIBA honor its original agreement.

Napoli struck out swinging at a changeup and Jarrod Saltalamacchia popped out to short.

Austin Jackson reached on a one-out walk in the fifth, before Jose Iglesias grounded into a double play.
Scherzer gave up back-to-back walks on close pitches with full counts to start the third inning.
Rookie Xander Bogaerts fell behind 0-2 before working it back to a full count and getting the walk. After Scherzer gave up a walk to Ellsbury, Jones came out for a visit. Scherzer was able to catch a pop up on a bunt attempt by Victorino.
Then Scherzer hung a slider on the first pitch to Pedroia, who came inches away from hitting a three-run home run. The ball just went foul to the left of the left field foul pole.
While it was clearly a foul ball, Red Sox manager John Farrell came out to discuss it with the umpires. They reviewed it before determining the correct call was made.
Pedroia instead grounded into a double play to third base.
Scherzer struck out the side in the second innings. Saltalamacchia swung and missed at a 94 m.p.h. fastball. Gomes missed swinging at an slider and Drew missed swinging at a changeup.
Buchholz, one of the slowest pitchers in the game, threw 22 pitches in a nearly 17-minute top of the first inning that saw one baserunner.
Alex Avila, who suffered a left patellar tendon strain and took a foul tip off his mask in Game 5, played for the Tigers in Game 6. Avila was hit twice by foul balls in the first four innings of Game 6 but stayed in to catch the whole game.

I'm working on a new sweater for Maggie. It looked like this a few days ago:
At first I thought it would be a vest, but then I started knitting sleeves. It was strange how I just started knitting them without really thinking it all through.
But it's all coming along nicely. I don't have a firm plan for the yoke decreases. I have joined the sleeves in and I'm knitting one stripe of navy blue hearts before I make any decisions. I've done a fair bit of knitting then unraveling, knitting then unraveling, ad nauseum. I am fully prepared to knit the yoke to completion then unraveling it to make it right.
I've got Spun Out #4 – Child's Yoke Sweater from Schoolhouse Press as a guide. Did you know that all those Spun Out designs are only $1 (besides the BSJ, which is understandable). What a deal! I ordered a bunch of them a few weeks ago and I think maybe I should order the rest.
This yoke obsession that I'm feeling is inspired by two things. One, I'm going to teach a class on how to knit a "custom pullover for your kid" at my LYS, so I need to make sure I'm on the ball with these EZ patterns. And two, surely you've seen the new design Paper Dolls by Kate at Needled. First the owls, and now paper dolls? I am super excited to see what she does next.
That's where I am now, knitting straight before any big decreasing decisions. The rain outside pretty much guarantees that there will be yoke action today. Yay!

ALEXANDRIA BAY Alexandrias $2.8 million project will bring potable water to Route 12 businesses and homes, allowing for a much-needed economic boost along the corridor, according to local officials.
Town Supervisor Dale D. Hunneyman said the big-picture plan is to get the main line installed by April 1 and start connecting properties, such as the Price Chopper store under construction near Interstate 81, as soon as possible.
The water project has been in the works for several years but until last month, Alexandria had been unable to secure grant funding for the work.
New Yorks Empire State Development Corp. awarded the town a $500,000 grant for the approximately three-mile water line extension.
The town will borrow money to cover the rest of the multimillion-dollar construction project, which soon will go out to bid, Mr. Hunneyman said.
Representatives including state Sen. Patricia A. Ritchie, R-Heuvelton, and Assemblywoman Addie J. Russell, D-Theresa, also are helping Alexandria secure low- or no-interest state loans.
The Route 12 Water District will service about 110 equivalent dwelling units along the corridor by piping water from Alexandria Bay.
Town officials have been working even harder to get money for the Route 12 water project because of the Price Chopper plaza development.
Price Chopper plans to open its doors to customers in the spring and is expected to give the local economy a boost, not only by attracting more tourists to the St. Lawrence River community but by hiring more than 100 employees.
Mr. Hunneyman said more commercial development is planned for that plaza, but little is known about the businesses that may move in.

Double submittals: who owns the candidate?
Double submittals. As a manager in charge of your CW program, you might ask what that question has to do with me. But if your goal is to get the best temporary help at a competitive price, double submittals could negatively influence it, especially if you have a VMS. Here's why. Take the real-life example of a candidate A posting his or her resume on varied job boards. A recruiter from staffing agency X contacts them, pitches the job, figures out the applicant's skills, interest, rates and so on. The name of the client, however, is not mentioned. The recruiter has spent a minimum of 20 minutes on this call. Then another recruiter from agency Y pitches the same job to the same aspirant. Sometimes at this juncture the candidate may not be aware that it's the identical position. Besides, the recruiter from agency Y went ahead since the other firm did not mention the client's name. Both recruiters presented the resume: it was a double submittal. But a VMS can only submit one copy of a resume. Once the resume is accessible, the applicant is interviewed, tested and background checked. Meanwhile, the hiring manager wants to go ahead and recruit the applicant. So who owns the candidate? Is it agency X or Y? In this real life example, agency Y walked away from the deal because agency X did submit first. But the best way to avoid situations like these is to either get a signed consent form (via email or fax) that names the staffing firm that the candidate is going to work with for that particular position. The onus does lie on the candidate to be upfront and mention that he or she is working with X staffing firm on a specific job. It is an unwritten rule that you do not work with more than one supplier on the same job requisition. However, it is also the staffing firm's responsibility to make sure that it's clear on details when pitching the job. The war for talent and the advent of the VMS have removed any exclusivity clauses for suppliers; if you are a preferred vendor for a large corporation, you are likely to be one of many. Double submittals are not about getting there first. They have real consequences to the staffing firm's bottom line and the ability to get the right contingent for your project, at a competitive price. Thanks to a double submittal, a staffing firm could lose a candidate which could mean a revenue loss of anywhere from $20,000 and more. You, on the other hand, may have to contend with aggrieved staffing firms, disruption to your CW programs and in some cases even lawsuits. So insist on your suppliers providing signed consent forms. This way, your VMS will not have to act as traffic cop and you will not be caught in an awkward situation.

GRAND OPENER: Cup Champs at Islanders on Oct. 3Tavares to make NHL debut against Crosby and Co.
4:05 pm – Welcome to the NHL, John Tavares. And to the league office, the Islanders thank you for the heaven-sent gift.
Point Blank has learned that the Islanders will open the 2009-10 regular season against the defending Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday, October 3 at 7:00 pm at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum.
In a crowded New York sports landscape, count on the historic debut of Tavares and visit from Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, Billy Guerin and the rest of the Pens being among the hottest tickets in town.
So hot, you can be certain Oct. 3 will be utilized as the primary lure for partial season ticket packages. Last I checked, the phone number for Steve Beisel and some of my old friends in the ticket office was still 1.800.882.ISLES.
The regular season schedule is expected to be released later this week. The Oct. 3 date with the Penguins has been rumored for a while now. Some fans contacted us via email to let us know that's what the Islanders' ticket sales office has been whispering. The home opener has been discussed on Islandermania.
Today, we confirmed that the Oct. 3 match with the Penguins at the NVMC is on the final draft of the NHL schedule. Over-the-counter tickets are not on sale yet, but the islanders could sell this game out tomorrow in an hour if they wanted to.
ADDENDUM at 5:50 pm – The reason why this is good for the NYI is that demand for the opener goes from hot to boiling. Tavares vs. the Panthers on Oct. 3 would sell out, but at nowhere near the demand of Islanders vs. Penguins. This is now the biggest ticket in an uncertain season. Tavares or not, if the NYI struggle as most will predict, games aren't selling out in January.
It's way too early to make assumptions about an Islanders mega-boon at the box office. Even if JTmania meets my projection of 2,000 additional season ticketholders, the team would then have around 10,000. Islanders-Penguins on a school/work night in November without a special deal does not = 16,297 paying full price.
As far as national TV in the U.S. goes, NBC doesn't start its coverage til New Year's. Versus, bless them, is Versus. The Islanders will make their international imprint when they become a better team.
Might as well start the season as grand as you can. As I wrote, this game will be the bait, the biggest draw by far in many partial plans…CB
Here's Sean Leahy's take on Puck Daddy. Comments.

This week we've been all about mobile design and the importance of user experience. But we thought we'd get ready for next week's topic—retail—by showcasing a Microsoft Tag implementation by department store Dillard's.
The retailer used Tag in-store for a back-to-school promotion focused on the juniors' department. The Dillard's campaign had two specific calls-to-action: Enter a contest to win a variety of prizes including laptops, iPads and $100 gift cards, and receive two free music downloads for customers who made a purchase of $50 or more (which was cool, but not specifically related to Tag).
The Tag on the in-store posters and signage took customers directly to a landing page where they could fill out the form to enter the contest. Major props to Dillard's for the placement of the Tags on their posters. Instead of burying the Tags at the bottom, they were front and center on the signs with a clear call to action. If you're going to go to the trouble to create a fun Tag promo, you certainly want customers to see those Tags.
What ways would you use Tag for an in-store promotion? Let us know with your comments below or on Facebook or Twitter.

Hello, I hope everything is ok for you.
First, I wish to thank you for the time and consideration you gave to my post.
I am currently conducting my Master Thesis about the islanding operation of six distributed steam turbine generators in a 60kV high voltage network.
Each generator is a salient pole synchronous machine and has typically these power values: 37MW and 47MVA. the distance between the generators is in kilometers.
So here are my questions:
- are there any control strategies adapted for this situation, so as to operate all of these generators in island mode (disconnected from the grid utility, supplying local loads)?
- if there is an increase or decrease in load demand while working in island mode, how can the six generators share the load power demand?
- should droop or isochronous control be used for the generators during the island mode?
- are there any load shedding techniques adapted for this situation?
I am still struggling with this, so any help is really welcome; websites, company products, articles, theses, etc.
Thank you very much for your help.

|Written by Lauren Ohnesorge
|Tuesday, 19 June 2007 19:32
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has found a
poisonous chemical in certain toothpastes imported from China.
The chemical,
diethylene glycol, also called diglycol, is a poisonous substance used in
antifreeze and as a solvent. According to the FDA, even in small
concentrations, diethylene glycol does not belong in toothpaste. The FDA is
strongly warning consumers to avoid using any toothpaste labeled as "made in
China" because levels as high as four percent have been found in the
toothpaste. Brands identified include Dr. Cool Coolmint, DentaPro, Clean Rite,
ShiRFresh and Dentakleen. For more brand names, visit our website at

By C.J. MCMANUSSun Advocate reporter
Sunnyside city officials were peppered with good and bad news Tuesday night as Sunnyside Cogeneration representatives first made a large donation to the city, then went on to explain that property tax payments would most likely continue to decline. Then the council got word that the water level at Grassy Trail Reservoir is ominously low.
The meeting began amicably, as SCG Plant Manager Rick Carter presented Sunnyside Mayor Doug Parsons with a check for $118,885.
"Sunnyside City and Sunnyside Cogen, we believe, have had a longstanding, good working relationship. It has been professional and we would like to continue that relationship," said Carter. "The owners have recognized that the reduction of our property taxes would impact Sunnyside City substantially and in recognition of that we want to do the right thing."
Property taxes on the power plant have gone down as as result of declining valuations. Assessed value went from $47 million in 2011 to about $20 million this year.
"I'm disheartened that we are here today for this reason," stated council member Shari Madrid. "Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the donation. That's great. However, I wish it had never come to that. I wish things were back to the way they were. We're not the only ones who are affected by this." She explained that the county and the school district are also affected. Madrid said the school district had to pay back $107,000 as a result of lowered valuation and the city's hit was $78,000.
According to Carter, the power plant's owners considered the fact that Sunnyside officials did not have the opportunity to raise the revenue needed to replace lost property tax income because no one knew how the appeal would come out for more than two years.
Negotiations concerning city tax rates started between SCG and Sunnyside city in 2005 when the two parties agreed to a lesser property tax increase than the city was proposing in exchange for the plant's promise to not request a tax re-evaluation for five years. As that agreement concluded in 2010, SCG approached the county via appeal in 2011.
Carter stated that the county's original property tax value for Sunnyside CoGen in 2011 was a little over $47 million.
"Our tax appraiser calculated the 2011 value at $27,900,000 and the 2012 value right at $20 million. Big difference there," said Carter.
After a lengthy appeals process, the county and the plant agreed to a settlement of $32 million for 2011 and $27 million for 2012.
"The current property tax rate in Sunnyside city is about .005 and the maximum allowed by the state is .007. This donation of almost $119,000 has been calculated as the difference between the two multiplied by the agreed upon plant value for 2011 and 2012," explained Carter. "We assume that the city will raise its tax rates in 2013 and we are in the process of calculating our value for the current year now."
Moving forward, Carter did admit that the plant would ask for a property tax re-evaluation every year if their appraisers felt there was a "significant" change in plant value. The SCG Plant Manager then explained that the property value is determined by what an individual would pay for the business.
"As the power plant gets closer to the end of its power purchase agreement the value will continue to go down," said Carter. "I know this isn't good news but I laying the cards face up here."
As Carter finished his presentation, Sunnyside City Maintenance Supervisor Mike Marquez addressed what he called a drastic situation at the city's reservoir.
"Our runoff has peaked," said Marquez while showing the council and Carter pictures of Grassy Trail. "Last year we were letting water out of the reservoir at this time. We were going over the top."
With inflow, runoff and snowpack, city officials agreed that the reservoir's level should be increasing.
"Historically, through the winter months we do gain. Not this year," said Marquez. "Basically, the problem is the amount of water being taken from the reservoir all winter long. We should all be scared. We will be on restrictions this year."
The conversation turned to SCG concerning the water being taken from their wells and mine water. According to SCG's Rusty Nets, the plant just increased the water being taken from mine water in Whitmore Canyon from 50 gallons per minute to 100 GPM. The plant is also pulling from Water Canyon One and Two at a total of 270 GPM. In addition to these amounts, city officials contend that the plant is taking more culinary water from the reservoir than ever before.
CoGeneration officials stated that they are pumping as much water as possible from their wells. They also reported that the plant is currently not using any more total water then they have in previous years, a claim that Marquez disputed.
"I can see that you are losing water at your well sites. They are running low but they feed our reservoir during the summer. We aren't going to get that this year," he said.
While Marquez and SCG officials disagreed about where the runoff is, they agreed that the lake is currently at 97 inches below the spillway.
"Since you just upped one of your wells from 50 GPM to 100 GPM, have you cut back our on culinary water?" asked Sunnyside Council member Shari Madrid.
The SCG group had not.
City residents then asked if the reservoir got to a certain level if they would be able to cut down on the amount of water the plant takes. No one had a specific answer and officials agreed that the plant's contract with the city needed to be reviewed by both Sunnyside and East Carbon.
While Marquez stated several times that he felt the plant was using more than the 150 GPM that the plant's meter shows they are using, plant officials commented that he is the one who reads the meter.
According to Marquez, the town is losing 350,000 gallons a day, very little of which he feels is being used by town residents.
City and plant officials agreed to come together to address the water system, possibly to look for problems or leaks beyond what is being recognized by either party.
