After enjoying the contents of a Westons Cider jar, I then spent the best part of 2 hours removing the label and getting rid of all the sticky stuff. The effort was rewarded by the fact it now makes a perfect addition to the Christmas decorations this year!!!

He tries to think, for every problem... there must be some sort of solution...
Images from Day 3 of our creative learning summer school in partnership with Kidbrooke School and Emergency Exit Arts.
Some of the most beautiful aspects of writing code is the speedy multiplication and transformation of data. The programmer may start with one element, as I did here, with a picture I created representing one silicon chip. From there she goes on to replicate, concatenate and transform that one element into a thing of beauty.
I used Photoshop CS4 to draw one silicon chip. I duplicated that one chip many times to create a quilt background. I filtered that one background many times and then cut windows through each filtered transformation.
We couldn’t be more
excited for our 2022 Michigan Municipal League Convention happening this year in beautiful Muskegon.
This year’s Convention marks a reset for our local leaders. Positive change is
happening across the state. Thanks to the hard work of our members, now is the moment
to shape a future that turns this potential into prosperity. Attendees will spend Oct. 19-21 meeting with
transformational thinkers and fellow local leaders to fill up on inspiration, energy,
insight, and new tools at this year’s Convention!
While in this shoreline community, you won’t want to miss this opportunity to
explore. You can catch a stunning sunset over the water, stroll along the beach
and pier at Pere Marquette Park, and discover the downtown revitalization that’s
underway, including the city’s expansive social district.
Of course, the main show is the Convention itself, and we have put together
a fantastic agenda of inspiring speakers and education sessions on multiple
topics. On the main stage, we’re particularly excited to have keynote speaker
Symone D. Sanders-Townsend, host of the MSNBC news show “Symone” and former chief
spokesperson and senior advisor for Vice President Kamala Harris. Plus, there are
sessions on space-hacking, using social media effectively at the local level, the
intersection of law enforcement and mental health services, creating a municipal
climate action plan, and data-driven-decision making. We also will cover ways to
use your state and federal assistance funding to improve community prosperity
and quality of life and get a legislative update from our Lansing advocacy team.
Even with that list, we’ve barely scratched the surface of all the sessions,
workshops, activities, and tours planned. Our general sessions and speakers are:
HOUSING: A LOCAL PERSPECTIVE FOR MICHIGANDERS BY MICHIGANDERS
Speakers: Brenda Harris, Realtor, Fivestar* Real Estate
Moderator: Selma Tucker, Director, Strategic Communications,
Michigan Municipal League
Everyone is talking about the housing market. Let’s go behind the scenes with a
real estate agent to get their take. Chat with Brenda Harris, a well-known realtor
and short-term rental business owner in Muskegon and the region. Brenda will
join the MML’s Selma Tucker for the inside scoop on the issues real people and
their communities care about—attainable and affordable housing, new supply,
funding, and—yes—short-term rentals. You might be surprised by what she has
to say.
PUBLIC SERVICE FROM OMAHA TO THE WHITE HOUSE
Speakers: Symone D. Sanders-Townsend, author, seasoned democratic strategist and host of “SYMONE” on MSNBC and MSNBC on Peacock
Why are you a public servant? It probably has something to do with where you’re from and how that community shaped your future. Symone Sanders-Townsend is creating a legacy of public service at the national level rooted in the values of her hometown of North Omaha, Nebraska. Those values have catapulted Symone to rarified air on that national stage having held senior positions in presidential campaigns, the White House, and now her own show, “Symone” on MSNBC. At 32, Symone speaks from a generation of public servants investing heavily in a future that has more opportunity, equity, and joy.
STRENGTHENING COMMUNITY THROUGH MUSIC
Speakers: John Sinkevics, Editor and Publisher, Local Spins Online Magazine
Michigan has a special relationship with music. Motown was created in Detroit. Bob Seger, Eminem, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, The White Stripes, Madonna, Diana Ross, Kid Rock, Smokey Robinson and many other marquee names were born and, in many cases, raised in one of our communities. Add the rich history of concert venues from Idlewild to Houghton and it becomes clear that music is a Michigan asset. How can communities support their local musicians? How can music help bring us together when we feel so far apart? Answers and more at this lively and interactive session.
POLITICAL PUNDITS PONTIFICATE: DISCUSSING THE 2022 ELECTIONS & WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU
Speakers: Rick Pluta, Senior Capitol Correspondent, Michigan Public Radio John Sellek, Founder and CEO, Harbor Strategic Public Affairs Karmilia K. Landrum, Executive Director of the Detroit Branch of the NAACP Moderator: Zoe Clark, Political Director, Michigan Radio
With the November general election right around the corner, we’re gathering a panel of political experts to talk about the election, give some of their predictions, discuss key races and ballot issues our members care the most about, and debate other hot political topics, including short-term rentals, revenue sharing, pension reform, and more. This is your chance to ask the media and political expert
So, get ready to learn, enjoy, network, and have fun discovering Muskegon and
the ways to make your own communities even better.

The Times Square Transformation is a major capital project with one driving goal: to ensure that Times Square is designed to reflect the bold, cutting-edge spirit that has long-defined the Crossroads of the World while still catering to the needs and capacities of a 21st Century urban space. Beginning in 2012, the City will upgrade the infrastructure below Broadway and 7th Avenue and redesign the Broadway pedestrian plazas, turning what is now painted asphalt into a world-class piazza.
The plans for the Transformation have been designed by Snohetta, with consultation by the Times Square Alliance and the Department of Transportation.
Throughout the construction, the Times Square Alliance will provide real-time updates to Times Square residents, businesses, and other interested parties.
