• When will Christians here do something about the massacres there?

  What I do know is that it is much more dangerous to publish a cartoon of Mohammed than to slice apart a Christian with a machete. (…)

• The ZingTrain Comes to Downtown Rochester

  Tuesday night the ZingTrain rolled into dowtown Rochester, to help local retailers and other members of the Rochester Downtown Development Authority keep on the right track to happy customers.    It was two hours of well spent time as the training arm of Zingerman's from Ann Arbor shared it's approach to caring for their business through caring for customers and employees.   The trainer Kari Nehro did a great job in her presentation and I was privileged to be able to sit on on this valuable session.   I took pictures, please feel free to look them over.

• A Sad Day in the Dalton Household

  Today, I'll be taking a trip to the Humane Society to say goodbye to our family cat.   Sammi has been our pet cat for the past 16 years, as I remember our member our daughter Elisabeth had a friend who had a kitten available.   All the children rallied along with their mother asking dad to agree to add this little kitten to the Dalton family. I never was a cat person, so I wasn't quick to agree, but they wore me down, and I consented.  Frankly, cats are astounding creatures; Sammi’s agility, beauty, composure, intelligence and independence has impressed all of us, including our dogs over the years. (Dog: “How did she jump up on the table like that?”)
  It's sad to lose Samatha today, in the above picture is one I took in October and she was looking pretty good.  Lately she stopped grooming herself, I think she suffers some internal pain and of course quite old, she won't consistently use the Kitty Liter Box, so she  has been living on our porch.  I know we are doing the humane thing for her, but it is hard for all of us.

• A Chapel Service at Cornerstone School

  I was blessed last week with a great time at Cornerstone School on the east side of Detroit in a facility that was once the Lutheran School for the Deaf. It was years ago, I visited the Lutheran School for the Deaf and was very impacted by the work they were doing there. Now the property is in the hands of Cornerstone Schools which is doing a wonderful job on this campus and others educating inner-city youth. The school has a very interesting history and springs from the vision of Cardinal Adam Miada of the Roman Catholic Church and Clark Durant who is a Detroit attorney with a wonderful history of community service. 
   
  I was invited to speak at the Middle School Chapel Service again and this time I bought portraits of three presidents and presented their faith centered language in various speeches.  They heard the words of George Washington and even Thomas Jefferson, that the ACLU claims so quickly as the champion of throwing everything referring to a Creator God from the Public Square. I also shared from various quotations from Abraham Lincoln.

• Rosie O'Donnell, Barbara Walters and a flashback of
  Gilda Radner's Impression of Baba Wawa

  Fun is fun, but Rosie O'Donnell isn't funny anymore.   I never was a big fan of Rosie, but she's in the news again this week with comments from her book about Barbara Walters.   She's not too flattering or complementary toward her former colleague and boss on the View; a daytime women's coffee clutch aired on ABC.  She basically is saying Barbara Walters is too old and should give up her life in broadcasting.
