Lillis Heads to West Virginia for On-the-Ground Mining Coverage
Tuesday, April 20, 2010 at 1:54 pm
Since an explosion at the Upper Big Branch coal mine in West Virginia killed 29 workers on April 5, Mike Lillis has been covering every angle of the story: the dozens of other mines owned by Massey Energy that pose safety risks, the failed 2008 bill that could have prevented the disaster, the president’s strategy for mining regulatory reform — the list goes on.
But there’s only so much one can cover from Washington. So Mike’s on his way down to West Virginia, where he’ll be speaking with miners and mine regulators, environmental activists, government officials and the locals who have felt the effects of mining on their communities. He’ll be there for the next three days, filing frequent reports; be sure to follow his coverage here.

In fact, it is the second time in the period of two years that a TAG Heuer timekeeping creation has been given the celebrated award. The Monaco Caliber followed the success of the brand's Professional Golf Watch that gained the iF Design Award for 2006, also in the Rolex SubmarinerLeisure/Lifestyle category. It is noteworthy that the award-winner was designed in close cooperation with Tiger Woods.

The iF Design Award is not the only victory recently achieved by Tag Heuer. In November, 2006 the Carrera Calibre 360 Limited Edition, featuring accuracy at the 1/100th of a second, won the coveted Grand Prix de l'Horlogerie de Geneve in the category Sports Watch. The both awards have once again strengthened Tag Heuer's prestigious status of the brand highly appreciated for creative avant-garde design decisions.

Tag Heuer's Concept Chronograph
The matchless Monaco Calibre 360 LS Concept Chronograph was initially launched into the horology world at BaselWorld in April, 2006. The timepiece reflects the new step in the evolution of the brand's Calibre 360 chronograph movement. The mechanical movement, a genius mechanism, has become the first ever to enter the horology history as a timekeeping device that guarantees absolute precision of 1/100th of a second. The timepiece is also distinguished due to another world innovation – a Linear Second for the permanent second.
