Wiscasset

Don't get me started.

I don't have the time to investigate, so I can't rant because I'm going to sound very ignorant because I grew up, when I went to Wiscasset, high school and Wisconsin middle school, the town and the schools were funded by a nuclear power plant.

Okay.

The nuclear power plant paid an enormous amount of tax, funded the high school.

This has been a growing movement in Maine, as many parks have been bought up by private equity hedge funds, which in turn increase rent, sometimes by as much as 50%.

The six communities considering this are Standish, Jay, Wiscasset, Augusta, Wells, and Oakland.

So, Ethan, I'm not going to ask you for a result in each town, but just tell us how many of these six towns are going to pass this rent increase limit.

It's a subject near and dear to your heart.

Central Maine Power built it when Maine deregulated in the late 90s.

That was one of the generation assets that Florida Power and Light won through an RFP process where they acquired all of the CMP's dams, the Wyman Station project in Yarmouth, and Mason Station small facility in Wiscasset.

There's about 800 megawatts of transmission capacity from Wyman, mostly unused Wyman, has what you were referencing as a four capacity market contract with ISO New England that they sort of bid in every couple years, and I think they have some more years left.

My recollection of that DEP application they submitted was that they would shut down two of the units.

One was a coal gasification plant, one was a pump storage facility that was going to be dug into the river there, and then also potentially an offshore wind cable going up the Sheepskate River and connecting there.

So, but that I think Melissa mentioned Surowiec.

Surowiec's in North Yarmouth where there is a constriction currently so and substantial load going into Wiscasset currently would have to deal with that to get out but Wyman Station is south of that just for whatever it's worth.

So we do have a lot of unused capacity Rick you would probably know that well as well.

In Maine.

For a year in Wiscasset, Maine.

Yes.

And

The aircraft antennas consisted of a trailing wire while airborne and a mass-supported single wire when on the ground.

The Bowdoin and Perry sailed together from Wiscasset, Maine, on 20 June as planned, bound for Greenland, with Reinhardt's at the key of WNP, the Perry's station.

WAP was operated by Paul J. McGee, pre-war 9AE and another member of the Zenith technical staff.

shortwave operation made all the difference the expedition was in nearly constant communication this time from their northern locations communications were reliable even in the daylight on the 20 meter band exceeding their expectations the bowden arrived at etah greenland its permanent base on 2 august its first contact made that same day was with 9cxx on 16 meters fifteen year old farm boy arthur a collins who believes in simplicity for efficiency had been involved in radio since he was nine the owner and operator of nine c x x in cedar rapids iowa he became one of the main channels for communicating with the expedition His transmitter was a 1 kW input single tube in a modified Reinhard's design.

so he used a 50-foot-long wire with 48-foot counterpoise 20 feet below it.

9CXX later became W0CXX and established the Collins Radio Company.

Failing to find any evidence of an Arctic continent, the Bowdoin returned to Wiscasset on 10 October 1925 and was greeted by ARRL Secretary Warner and others.

Many messages were handled during their stay in the Arctic.

We are joined by Alexander Widener.

He's a decorator, collector, storyteller, and founder of Widener Company, an interior shop and guest cottage in the coastal village of Wiscasset, Maine.

After building a career in brand marketing with brands such as Matouk, Sister Parish, and Samuel & Sons, he left New York to create a more personal life centered around beauty, history, and craftsmanship.

Through warm, engaging narratives that he shares on Instagram, Alexander introduces a new generation, and my generation, to the pleasure of collecting while celebrating the artists and craftspeople whose hands give objects their soul.

And I always knew since I was a child that I wanted to be an entrepreneur.

I just never knew what that would look like.

And we used to come and visit in Maine in this small little village called Wiscasset, and we stayed with a wonderful French woman in her guest cottage, and she ran a little antique shop.

And every time I would leave, I would think, "That's what I wanna do." And so on our last trip up, I said to my husband, Bradley, we were driving up in the car, I said, "What if we get there and she wants to sell us the property?" And he said, "You're crazy.
