Saline City Council was challenged by two of its members to assess its approach to competitive bid contracting

April 17, 2019

New Business item 19-75 on the April 15, 2019 Saline City Council agenda seemed straightforward enough. [1] [Acknowledge] receipt of the April 10, 2019 memo from City Manager Campbell; to approve or not approve the request to renew the Swisher Commercial Reality Agreement for another 12 months. After having been properly moved by Mayor Pro-Tem Linda TerHaar and seconded by Council Member Heidi McClelland, Mayor Brian Marl turned to City Manager Todd Campbell for a brief ....

That’s where you’ll ....

Table nearby with stacks of various, neatly stapled handouts. Familiar chairs for the audience, neatly lined chair-to-chair in rows. Typical. [3,4] And yet ....

FIRST Robotics Competition World Championship gets real at Cobo Center in Detroit as 2019 season showcases winners

April 26, 2019

On January 5 of this year, FIRST Robotics Competition launch of “Destination: Deep Space” felt like a leap of faith. [1,2] Field of play was no more than a two-minute animation.

Physical robots were not yet to the point where they could be hopefully viewed as vaguely imaginative flights of fancy. [3,4] They say that high school teams just like ours ....
