Rocky Mountain Power’s Utah customers have a new tool available to them:

Cool Keeper is an example of a tool Rocky Mountain Power is deploying to be wattsmart.

Jeff Hymas of Rocky Mountain Power is making the media rounds in Utah to spread the wattsmart message. This week Jeff appeared on Salt Lake’s NBC affiliate to discuss energy saving tips.

This post from STAND FOR LESS gives an overview of the power grid and discusses issues affecting the grid as we look forward to a future with cleaner energy. Thank you Rocky Mountain Power for implementing Cool Keeper in Utah! It’s an important innovation as we move to smarten our power grid.

Eye Care for Kids helps children see the world, literally.

Eye Care for Kids is a non-profit organization that provides eye glasses for children from low-income families. Amazingly, for a donation of 25 dollars they can provide an eye exam and prescription lenses along with cool-looking frames to a needy child.

RIESTER and Cosmic Pictures of Salt Lake City donated all of the services to create this commercial. The new spot is based on a true story of a child who received a pair of glasses. She then went outside and for the first time in her life saw that trees have leaves.

We hope the telling of this story will generate additional donations so more kids can see to read, learn and enjoy their world.

New Imax film, Hubble 3D, opens tomorrow at Clark Planetarium in Salt Lake City.

Clark Planetarium is one of the most educationally satisfying clients for RIESTER’s Salt Lake City office. Every time we help the planetarium promote an event, speaker or new film, our team learns something new about the world around us and how much science affects our daily lives.

Personally, I enjoy “geeking” out at the planetarium and am very excited about the latest film, Hubble 3D, opening tomorrow March 19!

The remarkable images of outer space on the huge IMAX screen will take your breath away and make you think, ‘What else is out there?’

You can watch the trailer and get ticket information at the Clark Planetarium website.

Astronauts Steven L. Smith, and John M. Grunsfeld, appear as small figures in this wide scene photographed during extravehicular activity (EVA). On this space walk they are replacing gyroscopes, contained in rate sensor units (RSU), inside the Hubble Space Telescope. A wide expanse of waters, partially covered by clouds, provides the backdrop for the photograph. Photo and text from NASA.

Tim Riester discussed why science and education are important in a post last year welcoming home space shuttle Discovery.
