Minutes before opening of Saline Craft Shows March 2018 event

There’s a Formula to Saline Craft Show Success and Community Value

March 29, 2018
Now almost two weeks after the Saline Craft Shows spring event, the time seems right to reflect back on what these attractions mean to our local community. Not just this year, but as a culmination of more than three decades. [1] The origin seems straightforward enough. As described on the organizer website, the “first show was held on November 14, 1987, with 66 craft booths and about 900 shoppers.” Ten years later, the number of ....
President Donald J Trump before the US Constitution

Articles of Impeachment now transmitted to United States Senate, Congressman Tim Walberg provided context

January 22, 2020
On December 19, 2019, the United States House of Representatives voted to impeach President Donald J Trump. In addition to making headlines among national and international media, it’s served local connections as well. [1-4] President Trump himself was in Michigan that day, headlining a 2020 re-election campaign rally in Battle Creek. [5] Then on January 15, 2020, “House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday formally set in motion the process of sending the articles of impeachment ....

The Detroit Automobile Dealers Association (DADA) was sole organizer, ....

“The Lone Ranger’s Black?” [1,2] As histories go, it’s hard to imagine four words that intersect more threads than those above — spoken by a fictional character. Spoken by time machine pilot Rufus Carlin during the 2016-2017 season of Timeless, it was his typically matter-of-fact reaction when he first saw Deputy Marshall Bass Reeves in the year 1882. [3,4] In 2018, “pop culture historian” Martin Grams Jr produced a 22-page white paper earnestly aimed at debunking this ....
