Saline District Library in process of conducting expert-facilitated focus groups en route to five-year strategic plan

February 7, 2020
In 1895, HG Wells wrote of an inventory who traveled some eight hundred thousand years hence in The Time Machine. When The Time Traveler found himself standed in what he found to be a quite frightening future, he sought refuge in a spectacular structure that at first reminded him of a museum. [1,2] Upon further exploration, he exclaimed it more likely “a library!” While Saline District Library does not have its eye on anything near ....

Or a cliffhanger. Possibly a really serious series finale. Regardless, then came summer — like a commercial ....

Just Found Out You’re Responsible For Thanksgiving Meal? Don’t panic. Call Busch’s – Before Tuesday, Noon.

November 19, 2018
Baby Boomers, and maybe a handful of those born after, will recall a time when Thanksgiving was a rote affair. Everyone knew where it was held, year in, year out. What time everyone was supposed to arrive (and who, notwithstanding, invariably arrived late). Some politely brought a side or supplemental desert item to pass — but no one depended upon any of that. Most importantly, everyone knew who was responsible for cooking. Today such things ....

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 ....
