April 27, 2018

On Saturday May 19, Briarwood Ford will hold its annual “Drive One 4UR School” event from 9:00am to 5:00pm at Harvest Elementary as a fundraiser to support Saline Music Boosters. [1,2] In light of what’s being discussed for the future of smart cities, it’s reasonable to ask how much longer anyone will be driving any vehicle at all, anywhere.

An intimate friendship turned layering acrimony between two formidable men, Jew and Roman — better understood when viewed as brothers rather than than simply friends. [1] And of course: The chariot race. This year marks the sixtieth anniversary of Ben-Hur, first released in 1959 starring Charleton ....

The “New” Lodi Township Hall Formally Celebrated Its Opening Twenty Years Ago Today

July 27, 2006

For some it’s hard to believe there was ever any other Lodi Township Hall, in any other place.
