For the next few minutes, consider putting the “business” of the Spring Craft Show aside, to appreciate its further gifts

March 8, 2019 Dell Deaton

It’s often tempting to think we know all there is to know about this tradition or that in our community. For some it’s credential. For others it’s requisite for being an effective ambassador on behalf ….

"The Chosen" DVD in player

“Christmas with The Chosen” more than just another holiday movie or invitation to renew in-theatre experience; much more.

December 2, 2021
Like icthus images in its opening credits, The Chosen seemed destined to swim against prevailing currents. [1-3] It’s certainly not without precedent to see television series beget theatrical movie releases. And only time will tell if, as “the largest ever crowdfunded entertainment project” it truly portends “groundbreaking implications for content creators, particularly faith-based ones.” [4] As “the first-ever multi-season series about the life of Christ,” it will forever raise the bar on what it means to have ....

There’s a Lot More to After Tax Season Document Shredding Rituals Than Confetti

April 18, 2018
Never simply throw away papers related to your income tax filings. Instead, either file them away securely or destroy them by means that render them irretrievable. Before taking either action it’s important to know what physical documents you’ll need to keep, why, for how long, and to what degree of easy accessibility. While you’re thinking about such things, get smart on what it means to keep papers “safe” as well as “secure.” [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8] As to ....

Most Important Part of Memorial Day Was Missed During 2016 Parade

May 31, 2016
Saline had its annual Memorial Day parade yesterday. But unlike so many past years, it did not come to Oakwood Cemetery. [1,2,3,4,5] Ironically, the present deep-dig Michigan Avenue reconstruction is serving to increase cemetery visibility. Mature trees with formidable trunks and expansively shading canopes of leaves were significantly cut back along its north border abutting the thoroughfare. Eastbound traffic coming into the City of Saline on US-12 is shunted off onto Monroe Street, creating an ....

As of this morning when Diane Udell spoke with Saline Journal, she was already committed to making complete prime rib dinners for up to one hundred people by Christmas Eve Day. But that’s far from the end of it. Before her schedule is set, that number could increase by half-again as many; maybe more. And that’s not including cookies. Ms Udell is responsible for baking and catering at Tippins Specialty Wine & Foods in Lodi ....

“PlanetM” Is Key Element Of Michigan Strategy To Shape Its Own Destiny Through Public-Private Partnerships, Part 1

December 27, 2018
Shortly after the 2018 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS), Dr Ken Washington of the Ford Motor Company predicted that things will change more for that industry in the next five years than they had in the first hundred. However, while automotive may be the current nexus of attention in coming transformation, it is clearly just one part of how society as a whole will become radically different in Dr Washington’s projected time frame.
