Order Online at www.BobEvans.com From Shiawassee Sheriff’s Det. Lt. David Kirk At about 7:10 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 11, Shiawassee County Sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to a home invasion in the 1800 block of E. Kilbourn Avenue in Caledonia Township. Upon arriving, it was discovered that suspects had forced their way into a residence and had stolen property primarily focusing on electronics including computers and televisions. Witnesses near the burglary were able to provide a description of the involved suspects as well as the vehicle they were traveling in. The investigating deputies recognized the description provided as one that matched suspects that had been involved in recent larcenies from motor vehicles in commercial parking lots and residences in and around the Owosso area. Later that evening, deputies located the suspect vehicle at an apartment complex on North Street near Hickory Street in the city of Owosso. Upon making contact with the suspects, deputies observed property reported as being stolen from the Kilbourn Avenue location. Additionally, property recently stolen in unrelated larcenies from automobiles was located and recovered. As of Monday afternoon, two suspects, both Flint residents, were lodged at the Shiawassee County Jail without bond for home invasion and unrelated controlled substance violations also discovered during this incident. This matter remains under investigation by the Shiawassee County Sheriff’s Office Detective Bureau. highlight REUNION SUNDAY – Time Capsule to be opened Sunday, Oct. 19 at the Owosso Free Methodist Church, 1249 N.

Fall: Time for Color Tours – and a Road Lesson As leaves change to vibrant hues across Michigan, motorists often find themselves off the beaten path, exploring the splendor from one of Michigan’s county roads. Unfortunately, many of those local roads are cracked, pot-holed and fixed with temporary measures due to the lack of road funding. “Our pothole-riddled roads do little to enhance our state’s tourism image,” director of the County Road Association, Denise Donohue said. “Motorists are often left wondering about the strange squiggly lines drawn on pavement, crushed stone applied to paved roads and other preventative maintenance that may not make sense to the casual observer.” MDOT and county road agencies have adopted a practice known as pavement preservation – applying the right fix at the right time. By applying simple fixes to roads that are in good condition like sealing the cracks – those squiggly lines drawn on pavements – road agencies can keep roads from deteriorating into a more expensive state of repair. Studies have shown, every $1 spent in preventative maintenance today prevents spending $6 to $14 later as roads deteriorate and become more costly to repair. Your local agent insures your Page 3 To keep roads in “Fair” condition from falling into “Poor” condition, roads are often resurfaced with a thin coat of asphalt, or a coat of asphalt covered in small stones, also known as chip-seal or “poor man’s asphalt.” These repairs are only intended to last for a limited period of time but play a key role in preserving the pavement. “It’s hard for motorists to understand why county road agencies are working on roads that appear to be in good condition, or why a road that was ‘just’ resurfaced needs attention five to ten years later,” Donohue said. “Over the long term, embracing pavement preservation will provide the best bang for the buck. It is similar to changing the oil in your car – pay now or pay much more later.” According to the Michigan Transportation Asset Management Council (TAMC), 87 percent of non-federal aid roads (lower volume local roads) are rated in “Fair” or “Poor” condition. The 2012 TAMC Annual Report provides that local roads are in worse condition than higher volume routes because more funding is available for federal-aid roads than for local roads. “Michigan’s county road agencies are working with the limited state resources available to them to preserve our roads until Lansing addresses the critical need for increased road funding,” Donohue said, “But that job gets more difficult every day as roads deteriorate and become more costly to repair.” According to the TAMC, “We lose nearly $3 million daily on roads that are essential to our economy and the tourism industry in Michigan. “As you drive around the state this fall, pay attention to the squiggly lines and chipsealed roads and realize that although some work is being done, a lot of it amounts to a short-term band-aid. Increasing state road funding by more than $2.1 billion annually would ensure the preservation of our roads and bridges.”The Independent Newspaper Group 989-723-1118 highlightS EUCHRE tournament Sunday, Oct. 19, at the Shiawassee Dog and Gun Club east of Corunna.

Bishop, Community president, Commercial Lender of Chemical Bank, announced that Chemical Bank has again hosted its Chemical Bank Cares Day event. Columbus Day, Monday, Oct. 13, saw Chemical Bank offices across the state closed for Chemical Bank Cares Day so that bank employees could volunteer in their communities on a variety of different projects. More than 1,900 Chemical bankers partnered with local organizations to work on over 200 projects ranging from helping to beautify city parks and schools, to spending time at Senior Centers, along with leading financial lessons in classrooms in addition to a variety of other activities. “We were excited for another Chemical Bank Cares Day opportunity to actively support the communities where we live, work and play,” stated Bishop. “Chemical Bank and Northwestern Bank employees were eager to volunteer with community partners while enjoying a successful day of giving back to the communities we serve.” He added: “The goal of Chemical Bank Cares Day is to reinforce Chemical Bank’s commitment to Michigan and the important role that our financial institution plays in communities across the state. Chemical Bank is dedicated to improving the quality of life in the communities it serves and our Cares Day Initiative is an important way to demonstrate that commitment.” In Owosso and the surrounding areas, Chemical bankers partnered with local organizations and agencies such as the city of Corunna, The Salvation Army and the Shelter of Flint, among others. Project examples included cleaning pens and grooming animals at the Shiawassee Humane Society as well as general clean-up for the city of Owosso.

The Wednesday Independent • Wednesday, October 15, 2014 Letters to the Editor Editor, The Independent: This is a response to JoAnn Goodson’s Oct. 12 letter. I’m hoping she can explain how the Republican Party represents the interests of women when so many of the GOP’s members and candidates clearly do not. I could present a whole laundry list of “anointed ones,” i.e., those who dare to speak for the rest of us and would pass draconian legislation that would profoundly affect all of our lives. The laundry list is long, so I’ll keep it as brief as possible. Firstly, recall presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s “binders full of women.” That one’s always good for at least a few chuckles. Several others, however, don’t come across as being quite so amusing. Todd Aiken’s “legitimate rape” remark stands out as being particularly heinous. Bob McDonnell’s transvaginal ultrasound probes seem downright medieval. Thank heaven Mr. McDonnell didn’t demand a similar procedure for men planning to get vasectomies. To round out the list, former Senator Rick Santorum declared he would ban all forms of contraception based on his own personal religious beliefs. Millions of poor, working-class American women must be thrilled to pieces to hear that one. Michigan senatorial candidate Teri Lynn Land has stated she would ban all abortions, even in the case of rape or incest, and most forms of contraception - again, based on her own personal beliefs. She would also cut funding for vital women’s healthcare incliding mammograms, cancer screenings and prenatal care. Doing her part to further the cause for family values, is she? Turning to financial matters, Ben Glardon has stated he does not support equal pay for equal work for women. Evidently he doesn’t believe in working women lifting themselves out of poverty and being able to feed and care for their families. Another twenty points for “family values.” In her Oct. 12 letter, Ms. Goodson called minimum wage laws “stupid.” It seems only fair to ask her if she’s lately tried to live on a job paying the minimum wage. If she bothered to research what the federal poverty lines are for single people and working families, she would know that no one can survive on minimum wage no matter how many household budget cuts they Robert Zalokar, CFP®, CPA are forced to make.

I’m always interested to see who starts it off; because for me, that’s who I will most certainly NOT vote for. It has always been very clear to me that the candidate who starts talking smack is the one who has the least amount of character, decency, and moral fiber. It stands to reason that the one who holds their ground and remains unshaken and unprovoked to the indecent and conniving efforts of their opponent, will undoubtedly be the best person for the job. On the other hand, the one whose weak platform allows nothing but bile to pour from their mouth and the mouths of their camp members, must be considered to be weak minded and morally numb. Think about it; who do you want in office? The dope who runs a campaign full of negative ads and playground foolishness? Or do you want a person of strong and reliable tendencies that has proven themselves to be positive and productive, never taking the time to slam or degrade anyone else? I know I will always choose the person who chooses the high road. So, please give this matter serious thought before casting that vote. My grandmother always told me; if you do not have anything nice to say, don’t say anything...... leave that to the people who don’t care how stupid they look.

He’s the guy who called law student Sandra Fluke a “slut” because she dared to defend a friend’s need to use contraception due to a reproductive health issue. What a prince. (There are so many these days.) Simply put, today’s Republican Party just doesn’t “get” women. It doesn’t understand women’s reproductive issues, financial matters, family needs or employment concerns.
