“Timing” Is an Important Factor for Capturing Historic Photographs

January 17, 2014 Dell Deaton

Some of the most memorable images in history were made by simple matter of having a person with a camera who was there when the moment presented itself. Others come from anticipating the moment and ….

January 12, 2014 Dell Deaton

The iPhone 6 Plus is being heralded as having “the best smartphone camera” ever. But it was the iPhone 4 that made headlines over three years ago as the “most popular camera on Flickr.” [1,2,3] ….

Salt Springs Brewery in downtown Saline Michigan

There’s an Exact Science in Craft Beer and a University Degree to Study It

April 13, 2018
When you think of a true craft brewer, what are the first images that come to mind? Old world tradition? Fiercely independent? Artist for the palate? [1] At least two professors in the Eastern Michigan University (EMU) Department of Chemistry would probably agree with all of the above. They’re more interested in what’s on tap at Salt Springs Brewery than beer that’s been bottled for mass distribution. But that focus doesn’t follow a course that’s ....
Lexus 500h with fourth-generation automated driving platform on display during first day of media previews at 2019 North American International Auto Show

Toyota leverages North American International Auto Show to display car with unique self-driving capabilities

January 14, 2019
In many ways, the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) presentation of a Lexus 500h with automated driving modifications was symbolic of desired positioning of the vehicle itself. To be sure, its dedicated space was singularly carved out at the rear of the massive Lexus main show floor presence. At the same time, simply another part of the greater product line, perceptually matter-of-fact. [1,2] Dubbed the “P4” in recognition of its place as fourth-generation platform ....

Clean, Reliable Water Supply In The City of Saline Is Not Really the Stuff Of Which Dramatic Headlines Are Made

June 12, 2018
When a Saline water main broke last month it attracted major media coverage out of Detroit. Alternatively characterizing it as a “large” and “massive,” television station WXYZ Channel 7 deployed no less than a helicopter to provide live coverage. Who knew there was so much excitement to be had at the corner of North Maple and East Michigan Avenue? [1,2] Grossly missing in so much of this was a substantive explanation of what had actually ....

Like So Many Histories From Saline, Dress Rehearsals For Upcoming Cemetery Enactments Stretched Their Own Bounds

September 24, 2018
Tonight was the first dress rehearsal for in advance of September 30 enactments at Oak Wood Cemetery. Appropriately, the stage for this was comfortably within the walls of Brecon Village — where the audience was both invariably appreciative and sharp on necesssary eyes for content details. [1,2,3] Later this week, the troupe will present their stories to local elementary school classes here in town. Full costume, in character. It’s a bit deceiving to regard any ....
