Observer& Eccenlnc I Thursday Apr 126 2007
My bank never showed mf interest like this.
When planning for retirement,
consider your individual needs
Irecently gave a talk at the
IHome & Garden Show m
NoVl and was approached by
a woman who was gettIng
ready to retlre and was concerned that she d,d not have
enough assets She was concerned because she d,d not
have a m,lhon dollars and she
was told that's what she needed
to retIre
I asked her who told her she
needed a mllhon a dollars and
she saId that s what she has
heard I have heard people say
many tImes they need a m,lhon
dollars to retire, however, I can
never track down the source I
prefer to focus on whether you
can afford to retIre As far as I
am concerned, everyone needs
to look at their s,tuatiOn md,Vidually so they can make an
mformed dec,siOn whether
they can afford to retIre and
whether they are saVing
enough for retIrement
I have always stressed that
retlrement IS a new concept III
the h,story of mankmd It 's
not somethmg that past generatiOns had to worry about Go
back a mere 100 years and hfe
expectancy was III the ffildfift,es Today many of us are
gomg to hve more than 30
years III retIrement and we WIll
enJoy an actIve lifestyle
Another change 's when peo
pIe first started thmkmg about
retlrement 50 to 60 years ago,
It was assumed once you retIre
you can lIve on a fixed or a
shrmkmg Income That s not
the case today In today s
world to have suffic'ent
amounts of money to retIre,
you must have enough to have
a rIsmg lUcorne throughout
your lifellme
How do you figure out how
much you should have to
retIre?
You need to look at what ,t
costs to live a month If you've
uever calculated that number,
now,s the time to do so Look
at your take-home pay and use
that as a guide For example, if
your take-home pay's $5,000
and from that money you are
only saVing $500 a month, you
know that your hVing expenses
are approx,mately $4,500 a
monte From that number you
can m'lk adJustnwn s for
letllemtllt As an example If
there IS someone you are supportmg (such as your ch1ldren)
that you Will not be supportmg
m rellrement you can back off
some of those exoenses In
additiOn ,fyou no longer have
a house payment you can factor that mto the equation On
the other hand don t forget to
factor In travel or other thIngs
m retirement that Will Increase
your expenses
Once you determme what it
costs to live a month back out
what you Will receive from
SOCialSecurity ,imd any penSiOn On a year-by-year bas,s
on our bIrthdays, we receIve a
benefits estimate from SOCial
Security The number 1SfaIrly
accurate
Once you subtract out from
ll\'lng expenses, penSIOn and
SOCialSecurity, you are left With
a monthly shortfall To determme how much you need to
oover that shortfall, multiply
that number by 12 (for the year
ly shortfall) and then multiply
that number by 20 to 25 The
number you calculate's the
amount of Investments that you
Will need to be able to retire and
to have a nsmg Income
throughout your lifetIme
For example if ,t costs you
$5000 a month to live and you
rece,ve $1,000 from Social
Security and you have no penSiOn,your shortfall,s $4,000 a
Money
Matters
Rick
Bloom
month That means that on a
year-by-year basiS you Will need
appro~mmcly$48000from
your Investments to cover your
hVing expenses ThIs means
that you Will need apprOXimately $960,000 to $1,200,000 m
Investments to cover your short
fall ThIs assumes that on a
year-by-year bas,s you wlll pull
out 4 to 5 percent of your
mvestments to cover your hvmg
expenses I recogniZe that the 4
to 5 percent IS a low figure
However, ,t does factor mto the
equatIon that you Will need a
rIsmg mcome throughout your
lifellme
I beheve no matter where
you are In your stage ofllfe, It
1S'mportant to determme ,f
you're on the right track III savmg for retirement I recognIze
that if you are Just startmg
your career, the number that
you wIll need seems unattamable, but ,t 1Snot If you are
m,dwayor even near the end of
your Cateer, It IS Important to
be reahstlC as to where you
stand
There are many finanCial calculators on the Internet that you
can use to help you With your
calculatiOns Vanguard, Charles
Schwab and others all have
excellent Web s,tes to help you
make the calculatiOn The key,s
to be mformed as to where you
stand for rel1rement and not be
surpnsed down the road
I m frequently asked
whether one should factor mto
the equatIOn future mherItances No I beheve ,t 's dangerous to depend upon mhen
tances that you have not yet
receIved Therefore, only III
unusual s,tuallons Will I factor
mhentances mto the equatIOn
The bottom lme ISthat
retIrement IS an ISSUethat
every one of us Will hopefully
face m the future The key to
enJoYJng retirement 's to thmk
about it now and take the
approprIate actions to make
sure that you can enJoy as long
a retirement as your health
allows

OUR VIEWS
Voters should
pick replacement
The selectIOn of Plymouth-Canton Board ofEducahon Vice
President Mark Slavens as Third CirCUit Court Judge has
thrown the May 8 school board electIOn mto a bit of a tizzy,
and ItS gomg to be up to the Board of Educahon to sort It all
out
Gov Jenmfer Granholm made the appomtment offiCial
Monday, tappmg Slavens as the replacement for 14-year court
veteran Maggie Drake, who resigned 10 January Hours
before that, however, the polihcal maneuvenng had begun Emails and phone calls flew m a flurry, and hushed conversahons With polihcal overtones were conducted as the Jockeymg
began
E-malls flew mto the Observer, questIOnmg whether
Slavens would remove hunself from the e1ec1Jonand assunng
us he had no legal basiS to stay m It. Barely an hour after the
announcement
was made, Slavens told the Observer he'd
resign from hIS current post at the board's May 8 mee1Jng
While congrahilahons are certamly m order for Slavens, hIS
selectIOn poses thiS problem regardmg the school elec1Jon
Voters who cast a ballot for him (and hundreds have already
come 10 VIa the absentee vote) had no Idea the man for whom
they were vOhng wasn't gomg to be around to serve the term
Whether you believe Slavens owed It to hiS supporters to
alert them of the pOSSibilityhe wouldn't be able to serve, thats
spilled rmlk now The unfortunate consequence of his removal
from the school board equahon ISthe elec1Jon has now been
taken out of the hands of the voters (should he Win)
Slavens replacement to fimsh out the current term, which
expires 10 July, Will be chosen by the current board. Ifhe Wins
re-electIOn, hiS replacement would be chosen by the new
school board In either case, the replacement Will have been
chosen by the board, not the people
We thmk It ouly fair the board do whatever It can to give
that VOiceback to the people The best Wll¥ to accomphsh that
goal would be for the board to choose the third-place WlUUer
(assummg
Slavens pICks up one of the top two spots),
whomever that candidate nught be, and then allow that person to serve unhI the next scheduled e1ec1Jon
The tlmmg of Slavens' JudiCial appomtment couldn't be
worse for the school board Surely their cntlcs Will accuse
board members of gamesmanship
If they Simply choose a
replacelllent that fits their mold It's a polihcal trap the board
would be better off mlssmg after two failed bond attempts m
less than a year
The best way to aVOidIt ISto do what e1ec1Jonsare meant to
do Let the people have their say
state needs to act
on renewable energy
The forces of enVironmentalism
and economic growth
always seem to be locked m mortal combat.
BL..~lneSSlea.der& complaIn mat whIle they, too, want a
cleaner enVironment and more effiCient SOurces of energy,
they could not pOSSibly meet the standards demanded by
enVironmental
groups EnVIronmentalists
argue that they
have facts and figures to show that mOVing away from
dependence on coal and nuclear e1ectncal generahon IS more
cost-effec1Jve and profltable m the long MIll
While It'S a clasSIC confrontatIon, there IS some eVidence
that there may be areas of agreement and fruitful comproUllSe
Beginning today, the Miclngan Senate will hold heanngs on
renewable portfolio standards
Sen Bruce Patterson (RCanton) IS chrorman of the Energy Poliey and Public UhIltIes
Comrmttee The comrmttee will hear Witnesses on the range
of renewable energy sources (solar, Wind, bIOmass, hydroelecme, etc) and proposals on how much of the states energy
should come from these sources
Democrats and Republicans seem to agree that renewable
energy sources have promise for redUCing our use of coal,
which we bnng m from other states and whICh IS a pnme
source of ror pollutIon
The Michigan EnVIronmental Council, an umbrella OrganizatIon for 75 state enVironmental advocacy groups, ISsupportmg Senate Bill 385, a Democratic Party bill that would mcrementally mcrease the percentage of renewable e1ectnc energy,
reachmg 13 percent by 2015 and 20 percent by 2020 Gov
Granhohn IS supporting a less aggressive 21st Century Energy
Plan proposed by J Peter Lark, chairman of the Public
SerVIce CommiSSIOn, which would reach 20 percent renewabIes by 2025 '!\vo other Senate bills, Nos 213 and 219, offer
different approaches
Patterson has srod he IS skeptical that the state can move as
aggressively as the Democratic bill proposes He raISes some
valid arguments concernmg the potential for Wind and solar
power m Mlclngan He has also been a supporter of nuclear
power as a Viable ophon for energy m the fu1:llfe
But we ask the Senate panel to keep an open mmd on the
many proposals bemg offered, Weigh the compe1Jng econormc
and enVIronmental concerns and move toward a policy that
serves the mterests of all Miclngan residents now and mto the
fu1:llfe

Crowd unfair to Johnson
I wanted to wnte a letter m support of
Planmng CommISSIoner Catherme
Johnson who had the guts to do her Job,
vote her conSCIence, and was not mtImIdated by over 500 people who reportedly
behaved badly dunng the meetmg to
change the zomng ordmance to build
Oakwood hospital I am sure due to a
long day and a heated subject, she was
brought to tears while proVldmg her
ratIOnale for her vote to develop a hQspItal that Will save lives m our commumty,
a vote that she feels ISthe nght thmg for
our commumty AIl I can say ISgood for
Catherme Plannmg commISSIOner IS a
dIfficult pOSItIOn where you can never
make everyone happy, but I myself
respect her strength to make those dIfficult deCISIons
Any change lU development plans are
dIfficult as I am sure other neIghborhoods felt passIOnate about their developmems like when a football fiela was
bUilt at Plymouth-Canton EducatIOnal
Park, or a Lowe s or an lKEA store as
well It seems to me that the commiSSIOn
pOSSiblyresponded to thiS high mcome"
neighborhood differently than It may
have to other reSidential areas where
rude and forceful behaVior won 1 believe
Commissioner Johnson made an unpopular vote, but kudos to her for votmg her
conscience and domg what she felt to be
the right thmg for our cpmmumty
As far as a hospital m Canton goes, It
seems the older I get, the farther the hospItalS m Ann Arbor seem I really hope
that Oakwood can find another acceptable locatIOn m Canton and If they cannot, I hope that thIS deCISIOndoes not
come back to haunt thiS commumty
when a few mmutes of travel time may
make the difference of life or death

Plan is fair
I know these are hard economIC tImes,
and I do not want to cause anyone economic hardship Believe me, I understand I was lrod off a year and a half ago
Just before ThanksgIVIng My family
struggled to get through the holidays and
mto the new year I took several parttime Jobs to make ends meet, my Wife
pIcked up a second Job I understand
what thiS economy ISdomg to people m
our communIty, and that IS one reason
why I do not want to be forced to layoff
teachers
But that IS exactly what the PCEA
umon leadership would have thiS Board
of EducatIOn do They would much
rather finance the structural defiCit on
the backs of the students, parents and
their own lower semonty members than
take a one-tlme salary correctlOn
My recommended plan of a one tIme 6
percent salary correctIon across the
board would reduce our annual budget
by $5 6 million Add to thiS the health
care saVings, of $17 million the FICA
tax saVings of $ 70 mIllIOn, and the
mandatory RetIrement Fundmg saVings
of $145 million, and that would save the
dlstnct $9 45 million Our current pro-
Jected structural defiCit for next year IS
prOjected to be $75 million With some
addItional cuts to non-mstruchonal
areas totalmg about $1 9 million, I proJect a total budget reductIOn of $11 35
million
This would leave us With a $3 85 million surplus Half of thIS should be added
to the Capital Improvement Fund, which
ISused to fund such costs as bUlldmg
reprors and mamtenance, bus and technology purchases and other projects to
Improve the safety and functIOnality of
distrIct propertIes Couple thiS $1 9 million With the eXlstmg Durant funds of
$3 4 million, plus the annuallUnount
prod toward the expmng energy note of
$ 80 mIllion and you create a capItal
Improvement fund of $61 mIllion by the
end of next fiscal year These funds could
be used toward necessary work at
Central Middle School, Tanger Fields,
Miller Woods, and projects at the PCEP
such as new lockers, field mamtenance,
Improvements to our Career and Tech
EducatIOn Programs and more
AdditIOnally, makmg thiS finanCIal
move Will elimmate such projected cuts
as field trlps,laymg off 25 teachers or
more, Increasmg class SIzes, laYIng off
parapros who support literacy programs,
laymg off technology personnel, mcreasmg Pay-To-Partlclpate" fees to students
as well
ThIS ISnot about what ISbest for the
Board of EducatIOn or what ISbest for
the teachers, thiS IS about what ISbest for
our students My plan ISbest for the stndents
These are my VIews, and In no way represent the opmlOns of the PCCS school
dlstnct or the Board of Education

Keep Canton clean
On a recent walk to pick up my vehicle
from the serVIce shop, I had the opportumty to see all kmds of litter, up close,
along some of our roads Needless to say,
I was qUite disgusted durmg my walk It
has always bothered me when I would
return to Canton travelmg north on 1275, and see all of the litter at the Ford
Road eXit What kmd of message does
thiS send to people traveling through?
Or, even to our chl1dren as we enter
Canton to head home?
As you drive along the roads of
Canton, start paymg attentIOn to the
trash problem As you head down
Sheldon between Ford and Warren,
notICe all of the trash m the creek (on
both sIdes) as you pass over Or, as you
dnve behmd the Texas Corral and Fifth
Third Bank Or, down Joy along the outSide of Plymouth Chnstlan Academy Or
the little cut through from the Super
Bowl to Canton Center Road
But, mstead of Just getting mad, I've
really thought about what we can do as a
commumty to make our Canton Iitterfree If everybody pitched m to help
clean up their yard, busmess or school
property all the way to the road on which
It IS located on, we would have a much
cleaner commumty We are blessed to

Concerned about AD
I am very concerned about the consequences oflosmg an athletIC director m
our school dlstnct We contmue to cut
year after year m athletics, and the parents pay more year after year to support
them GIven all thiS support, I cannot
understand thiS deCISIOn
Dr Ryan has done an outstandmgJob
m the fact that we have facilities that are
bemg used by multiple schools, smce
they are m fact on the same campus
This mcludes football and sWlmmmg, to
name a couple However, thIS puts an
additional strron on each athletIC department to schedule these faCilities so there
IS no overlap
The athletic director POSitIon IS a key
posItion at each school Given the hours
these folks keep, and the positive mfluence they have on our young adults, thiS
deCISion needs to be re-thought
I also, am planmng to send a letter to
my senator and representative, askmg for
support m thiS matter I thmk we need to
nd our government of waste, mstead of
puttmg our young adults' future at nsk I
ask that anyone readmg thiS letter to do

Make cheerleading competitive
PCEP model flawed

more than 60 grrls m the program at Plymouth the

I am the parent of one current and one former
Plymouth High School student I also have an older
chud who graduated from a MIchIgan hIgh school
on the west SIde of the state As such, I have the perspeenve of a parent who has seen a one !ugh school
model of educahon m adwhon to our three high
school park model I have a large and groWlng concern Wlth the current state of our three hIgh school
park model
When my funu1y moved mto thIS area five years
ago, we had the chOIceofbuymg a home m anyone
of a number of wfferent school wstrlcts We met
Wlth representahve of the Plymouth-Canton
Educahon Park and were presented Wlth a high
school concept m which haVIngthree schools m the
same park would proVIdeopportumhes and synergies m cumculutn, facUlhes, extracumcular acllVlhes, and atlJ1etlcsthat were not avaJ1ableto a one
hIgh school system We were sold on the proill1Se
that our chJ1dren would be the benefiCIarles of tins
system We have been extremely wsappomted as we
have seen few advantages and many wsadvantages
I would hke to eJllphaslZe that my ISSuesare not
Wlth any smgle school as I beheve all three schools
are staffed Wlth equally quahfied teachers, admmlStrators, staffs, coaches, and students My ISsuesare
Wlth the PCEP model
From a cumculum standpomt, the park does not
offer any larger of a cumculum than my oldest sons
hIgh school, or that of most wVlslon one hIgh
schools m our state And, If It'Snot enough that our
class offerntgS are average, we ask our students to
travel between school through the elements to
attend core classes that are taught at all three lugh
schools Our facUlhes are very average We have a
few pockets of excellence, but these are more than
offset Wlth an equal number of faculhes that are
below average
Our park can boast of a full menu of extracumcular acllVlhes and a long hst of wstlnctlons and
recogmhons But agJUll,compare our offenngs Wlth
other smgle hIgh schools Just Wlthm our conference
and ynu will not see a nohceable dlfference
Recently It was reported that the park will now
be gomg from three to two atlJ1ehc directors to
cover the thousands of student athletes m our edu
cahonal park. One of the very few opportumhes
that our kIds have to build a loyalty and Idenhty to
theIr home hIgh school ISthrough atlJ1ehcs
Because most of our sports teams are separated by
school, through sports our students have the opportumty to build and nurture theIr own culture, theIr
own schoolldenhty Bywatermg down the atlJ1etlc
wrectors from three to two, we will be well on our
Journey to ma1o.ngatlJ1ehcsanother genenc park
achVlty whIch m the process will further erode any
attachment that our kIds have to theIr home school
With our parks 5,800 students we wlil have one
AD for every 2,900 students, a rahon nearly 30
percent worse than the second worst raho at

Two ADs can't do job
I am opposed to the removal of an atlJ1ehc dlrector at the !ugh schools We have three separate
schools Wlth separate atlJ1etlcprograms To thmk
the two remanung ADs could be effeenve m dIrectmg all three schools ISnwculous RIght now each
school has mWVldual attributes and thIS contributes
to school pnde and spmt Th take that away and put
such a heavy load on the two rerruumng ADs will
rob all three schools of thelr mWVlduallty m atlJ1etICSAs a parent of a student atWete at Plymouth, I
appreCIate the fact that the AD knows many of the
mWVldualkIds and ISaccessible to coaches, students and parents Tlus will not be pOSSIbleWlth the
new arrangement. We left a pnvate school to give
our son bIgger opportumtles m both acadeuncs and

Sawchuk a class act
ThIs letter ISm response to the recent artlcle
about ellmmahng one of the atlJ1etlcdirectors,
speclfically Terry Sawchuk, due to budget constramts
I would hke to weJgh m and put my full support
behmd Mr Sawchuk and ask the board to reconSIder Almost every year smce Plymouth HIgh School
has been open, thIS Issue about ehrmnahng an athletlc wrector, or at hmes all three, has come up,
been wscussed and then concessIons have been
made by all three ADs From my and my son's personal expenence Wlth Mr Sawchuk, I would hke to
emphasIZe the Importance of haVIng an AD m each

all shared m hIS VISIonto teach the students valuable lessons both on and off the football field, the
basketball court and 1Th the classroom I absolutely
give Mr Sawchuk and hIS coaches credIt for helpmg my son be successful not only m the classroom
but m atlJ1etIcs
It would be very detnmental to the future students m the Plymouth-Canton school dlstnct to

Cut should be shared
RIchard Ham-KucharskI, a member of the PCCS
school board, suggests that the wstnct can balance
Its budget by sunply cutTIng teacher salanes by 6
percent. He should know, however, that teacher
salanes are the result of a colleenve bargaunng
agreement, and are not subject to unuateral reduchon
Settlng asIde that legal Issue, though, I would be
m favor of that Idea If the sacnfice was shared
equally That IS,not only the teachers wonld take a
6-percent cut, but the JanItors, the adunnlStrators,
the bus dnvers, the secretanes, everybody Also,
anybody who has a chud m school should donate 6
percent of their salary as well
That would certaInly solve the budget problem
(In fact, I'm certam that we could get by WIth only 1
percent mstead of 6 percent Ifwe mcluded everybody Wlth chudren who are students m the dIStrict)
We could, of course, hunt the sacnfice to the
teachers only, but we're askIng for sacnfices that
will help our kIds and our commumty Many
teachers don t hve m the commumty and most
don't have children gomg to school m the dlStnct,
so It doesn t seem lOgical to ask that they alone
should sacnfice theIr pay
Its easy to cut the cost of anythmg - health care,
pohce protectlon, automobues - by mandahng a
cut m wages for the workers proVlwng the serVIce
But that also decreases the qualIty of the serVIceby
dnVlng the most qualIfied workers elsewhere
Ifwe want the worst teachers m the area, lets cut
theIr pay But Ifwe want to keep the best teachers
here m Plymouth Canton, we will have to look fur
more reallshc Ideas Mr Ham- KucharskI's Idea IS
not only unworkable but unfatr

Not a four-gone conclusion
Resilient Knights extend series with 5-2 victory
BY ED WRIGHT

Of the 45 shots the London Kmghts fired at Plymouth
goaltender MIchal Neuvrrth Thesday mght, the softest,
most bemgn-lookIng of them all proved to be the most
gut-wrenchmg fur the Whalers
WithJnst under four mmutes left mthe second penod
of Grone 4 of the Ontano Hockey League Western \
Conference Fmals and the Kmghts clmgIng to a shm2-1
lead, London's Sron Gaguer half-heartedlyfhpped
the
puck at the net from 40 feet out so that Ins team cOuld
execute a routIne Ime change
Spmmng like a knucldeball, the puck Int the Ice at a
weU'd aogle a few feet m front of the crease, took a funky
bounce toward the net and skIpped over Ne" ",rths left
shoulder to give the KOlghts a 3-1 advantage
The furtunate break proved to be the pIvotal play m
London's 5-2 Victory
Plymouth now leads the best-<lf-seven senes 3-1 headmg mto Thursday mght's Game 5 m London, but Its the
~ Kmghts who own the momentum
If London Wins Thursday, Game 6 will commence
Saturday at 7 p m at the Compuware Sports Arena
'It was the end of a long slnft and I JUst wanted to get
the puck m the zone so we could change hnes,' sood
Gagner, descnbmg Ins freaky net-finder 'I threw kInd of
a bobbler m there and (NeuVlrth) was deep m the crease
It took a lucky bounce, but you make those kInd of
bounces happen by workIng hard '
Many OHL observers were no doubt expectlng the

Plymouth kickers earn draw

BY ED WRIGHT
STAFF WRITER
Followmg Monday mght's key WLAA
Western DIVISIOn showdown agamst
NorthVIlle, Plymouth coach Jeff NeschICh
Joked that hIS team was probably the best 14 2 team m the state
The Mustangs would whole-heartedly
agree
The WIldcats gave state ranked NorthVIlle
all It could handle and more as the two teams
battled to a 1-1 draw before an enthUSIastIc
crowd at the P-CEP varSIty turf field
Plymouth IS now 1 0 2 In the dlVlsIOn
NorthvIlle IS 2-0 1
, The gIrlS really came ready to play
tomght,
saId Neschlch "It was a hard fought
game I thmk we re on the cusp of becomIng
a very good team
Several WIldcats turned In stellar efforts
most notably semor goal-keeper BrIttany
Warner who stymIed the hIgh-powered
Mustangs on all but one shot
BrIttany was awesome between the pIpes
agam tomght" saId NeschICh She was very
very solId back there
The WIldcats struck first mId way through
the first half when Val Klemmer controlled a
ball off the foot of Chelsea Qumlan, then
spun and rocketed the ball mto the back of
the net to gIve the hosts a 1 0 advantage
NorthVIlle knotted the game at 1 all WIth
approxImately 12 mmutes left m the contest
For a moment, It appeared as If Plymouth
was gomg to pull off an mcredlble VIctory
when semor forward Clare Baptlst found the
net WIth 12 seconds left
However, the goal was called off when the
referee ruled that BaptIst was offSIde on the
play
I dldn t have a good angle on It so I can t
comment
Neschich saId, regardIng the
heart breakmg call
CANTON

Difficulty Selli
Your Home?
Perhaps Leasing is theAns
saId
Renehan IS troubled by the standard solutIOn to wet basement walls proVIded by most
waterprootmg compames
They just want to sell the homeowner a second dram hIe system," says Renehan
They
jackhammer your floor mstall new pIpes and pump, and dJrty up your house when they haul
concrete OUI to a dump truck Nme hmes out often, It'S needless effort and expense he
says
Renehan says that hIS patented method for cunng wet basement walls also mcludes
the mstallatlOn of an access pomt so that a home s dramage system can be flushed
repeatedly 10 the future
One more thmg says Renehan
When you call Hydromlst to do the job you get
me not some salesman that only wants to sell you an mtenor dram system Ido the work
And Istand behmd It

Jobs and fewer self-termmatlOns· "Four
of the bllllIes," she WrItes, "were fired,
three were transferred, and five
remame,d at the Job, although one
faIled to secure a promotIOn" However,
she mentIons that reSIsters often suffer
conSIderably With loss of credIbIlIty and
the label of "troublemaker." MeanwhIle,

The absence of a gnevance process

Jeep Commander: Find A Way To stay Around
Adverttszng Feature
CAReport
By Dale Buss
It's basICally unfalrto a new vehICle to begm
soundmg Its death knell before It s even a year old But
that s what happened earher this year when first year
sales of Jeep s hulkmg new Commauder SUV were
dlSappomtmg, and Chrysler had to come up With
thousauds of dollars m mcentlves to move each one
Already, rumors sWirled that the compauy had mked
Commauder for au early death, next year
But Chrysler hasn t ever commented on the report,
and so here s hopmg that It s wroug I love the Jeep
Commander, and I have smce It came out last year
Sure, the vehicle could use some tweakmg But dnvmg
a 2007 Commauder Sport 4x4 recently remmded me of
Just how much thIS vehicle has to offer And I dldnt

Commander finally gives Jeep a legitimate player in the huge-SUV market.
or gettmg to the roof of the car, they also add to the
Visual ImpreSSIOn of the vehicle s utility
Second, Commauder IS a highly fleXible vehicle,
which It clearly demonstrated to me on Saturday In the
mornmg, I needed to haul away a bunch of trash, aud
off road
capablhtIes I
Three thmgs about Commander really stood out to
me
FlfSt I love the look - sort of a combmatlOu of retro
Jeep, harkmg back to ItS Cherokee of the mid-Eighties
aud a Jeep renditIOn of a Hummer 3 Regardless of ItS
herItage or mfluences, the Commander IS
unapologetICally big and boxy and bold and I hke that
If anythmg, Jeep has overstated the rear end, With a
stepped-up roof that makes room for rear passeuger
seatmg It also underscores the fact that thiS IS ItS
biggest Jeep aud Visually dlstauces Commander from
the smaller Graud Cherokee that used to top the Jeep
Imeup Commauder IS two mches longer and nearly
four mches taller than Graud Cherokee
At the same time, Commander makes great use of
claSSIC Jeep deSIgn cues, mcludmg, of course, the
mstantly recogmzable seven-slot gnlle trapezOidal
wheel wells and squared offlmes With flat surfaced
Exposed Allen head bolts along the wheel wells aud m
the headlamp module are mtended to create a techmcal
look And while the loug handles that reSide on either
end of the rear Window no doubt are practICal because
they can asSIst someone chmbmg onto the rear bumper
the capacIOUS maw that IS Commander's
rear gate Just
kept ou accommodatmg more and more stuff uutil I
ran out of thmgs to put m there And the rear still
closed easily
Then
m the evenmg, Commander
transItIoned
easily to a SOCialvehicle that duly Impressed our fneuds
m the second row - who especially liked the two
porthole sunroofs over their heads each With a
retractable shade The "commaud, or elevated,
pOSItIon of the second
automatIc bnght-and-dlmmmg
headlights and ample
pockets and compartments,
mcludmg a mfty slot nght
m front of the front passeuger that can hold cell
phones, keys, sunglasses and the like However, m a
vehicle so large, I was dlsappomted to fiud that the
storage slot on the dnver s door not only was
Impractically narrow, but It also mvolves a bend at the
halfway pomt, makmg It even less useful And that are!
lacked a dnnk holder that so mauy other vehicles, marn
of them much smaller than Commauder, have fouud a
way to Incorporate
rear seats makes ItS passengers
feel comfortable aud engaged With those m the frout
Third both times I have dnven a Commander I
have been Impressed With the car hke nde
demonstrated by such a large, truck-msplred vehicle
Commauder handled very well remmdmg me of the
responsiveness aud overall balauce of the best of thIS
category, such as the Lexus LX models The 4 7-hter VB
engme that powered our vehICle proVided all the power
reqUIred m a seemmgly effortless mauner Its a
fleXible fuel engme, to boot, although I filled thIS
Commander With regular gasolme rather thau ethanol
I also appreciated the mtenor ameUltles mcludmg
And Jeep might conSider redeslgnmg the dashboard
to exclude the open compartment
m the center - It s
practically useless, smce It s shallow aud has no lid,
meanmg Just about auythmg you place there Will flmg
Itself to one Side of the vehicle or the other when you
make a turn
It s also true that Commauder has some major
competitive challenges Sure, at 15 miles a gallon m the
City aud ouly 19mpg on the highway, you have to wnte
off ItS fuel economy even though, m a nod to the
enVIronment, the verSIOn I drove WIll run on corn as
well
But here s hopmg that Chrysler finds a way to
address Commander s few shortcommgs aud keeps It It
the game Even at nearly $39,000 for the verSIOn I
drove, I found Commauder well worthwhile

Affordable software keeps desktop publishing alive and well
ply a matter of arrangmg the vaflOUSelements
to your lIkmg You can Import text documents
from your word processor, photos from your
Image library, graphiCS from the Web or an
mcluded gallery, and so on
PagePlus also supplies a wealth of tools for
generatmg special effects You can easily add a
drop-shadow to text or graphiCS, create a fancy
3-D background, apply textures, draw shapes,
and much more
To help get you started, the software comes
WIth a vanety of templates for projects like
photo albums, newsletters, greetmg cards,
posters, and even CDIDVD labels
You can also take advantage of bUilt m tUtOflals that teach you how to use PagePlus and
deSign speCific kmds of documents
In short, It'S a user-frIendly program that also
packs a surpflsmg amount of desktop publIshIngpower
When you're done WIth your proJect, you can
do more than Just pflnt It PagePlus also lets you
QuarkXPress cost $699 aud $749, respectively
Its relatively low pflce notwIthstandmg,
PagePlus IS no cheap, underpowered applicatIOn QUite the opposite It has nearly every feature you'll find m the profeSSional programs,
and more than a few you won't find Plus, It s a
lot easier to learn
DESKTOP PUBLISHING 101
In case you re unfamular WIth It, desktop publIshmg software lets you mlX text, graphiCS, and
other elements to create vanous kmds of documents
You say you can do the same thmg m your
word processor? Please That's like usmg a hammer to sculpt a statue MICrosoft Word may let
you Import graphics and create a few gaudy text
effects, but It'S no desktop publIshmg program
With PagePlus, you get precise control over
everythmg text, graphiCS, colors, and, most
rmportantly, layout
, Indeed, creatmg any kmd of document IS slm-
Tech
Savvy

create PDF documents and slideshows, publish
to the Web, and send your documents as e-malls
(WIth all graphiCS and formattmg preserved)
Thus you could use It to, say, dlstflbute your
company newsletter electromcally, no paper
reqUired
Of course, PagePlus can also produce cameraready separatIOns for profeSSional pflnt Jobs
Like I said, thiS IS one amazmg program I
highly recommend It for anyone seeking to create attractive, professlonal-Iookmg documents,
be It a Simple flyer or a full-fledged magazine
Whatever happened to desktop publIshmg?
It's alive, well, and affordable m the form of

c1ncken out," Kathy srod 'I told
Darryl, 'you go have fon "
The gUide heard tins conversauon and managed to talk Kathy
mto f1y-fishmg that day After
that, she was hooked
The couple, who own Vmtner's
Cellar Canton Wmery, are now
aVid fly anglers And they love

opens Saturday (Theywon't be
out for the opener, because that
day brmgs too many crowds to
Mlclngan nvers and streams )
Kathy has not forgotten that
first day m the nver - how an
angler feels that sense of belongmg to the nver and to nature,
that sense ofbalance, that calm,
that peace, that sohtude, all rolled
mto that mrvana.
That allIS good m life
''You get a httle fish on a threeweight (f1yrod) and they fight hke
crazy; Kathy srod 'I was amazed
at how beauuful the nver was'
, I almost love It more than my
husband, she added
The follOWIngyear, they went
on a three-daytnp to the
Colorado River Then came a trip
With the MadISon River outfitters
m West Yellowstone
In 1998 the couple bought a
cabm m Baldwm, aquarter-nule
from the Pere Marquette
'We love It; Kathy SlUd We
bought It and we fished the SlUlle
day" Soon they bought two dry
fly-fishing boats
In 2004 they purchased a lot

search on the Internet led to
another chapter and another
transluon m the couple's hves
They looked for a wme to serve
With trout, and found a franclnse
company where people can make
their own wme Kathy lost her
Job dunng a company downSIZmg, so the Idea of Wlnemakmg
mtngued her They pursued the
Idea, openmg a wmery busmess
two years ago
Granted the franclnse ISn't one
of the gw.nt WlneTIesyou will find
m California. The couples busIness ISa local storefront m a stnp
maII,jlUt don't let the locauon
fool you about the product They
conduct tastlngs and dinners for
patrons, along With the usual
wmemakmg and bottlmg
Both of them love wme, so the
busmess Idea Just made sense
"I srod, 'hey I can do tins,
Kathy SlUd Kathy pomts to her
Italllll1 hentage and her grandfuther's love of Wine, along With
Darryl's, whICh he picked up
whlle he was stauoned m Europe
They generally catch-andrelease, but Iftheywere to cook It,
the Nowaclus prefer the trout be
pan-fued She's adapted a'l"eCipe
she received from master chef
Dan Hugeller, a culmary arts
Instroctor at Schoolcraft College
FLIES TO USE
When she uses lhes for brot,
she's one of those who 'smacks
her fuce" to see what bugs are out
and hatchmg 'I almost always
catch them on a caddis fly,"Kathy
srod. The caddis ISa predommant
hatch on the streams m late
sprmg and summer
Then there was the tune she
hooked her WQOlybugger (another fly used to catch trout) mto her
arm, and needed to dnve to Reed
City to get It pulled out 'The doctor SaId, 'mce fly!' » sIte remembers The doctor returned the fly
to her m a cup normally reserved
for urme samples
WINES TO SERVE
Wmes and fish are a natural
marnage for any meal
Wmes to be served With trout
are usually clnrrdonnay or neshng, Kathy SlUd
They would both be very
good,' she srod The Rismg Trout
she sells at her wmery store IS
aged m Hunganan oak barrels
'It's Just a woody flavor, she srod
Darryl won an mternauonal
gold medal for hiS Amarone With
18j, pomts out of 20 He ouly sent
two wmes last year to the compeuuon, but thiS year the couple,
buoyed by last year's success, sent
14 wmes Ouly four Gold medals
were awarded out of 250 wmes
last year Whde the wmery may
be a franclnse, wmery owners
and operators can tweak the wme
