Assistance Available for Workers
Impacted by Foreign Trade
NORTHWEST LOWER, MI— Workers who have lost their jobs as a result of foreign trade may be eligible for benefits through the Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) program. TAA provides assistance to laid-off workers to help them return to work as quickly as possible at a comparable wage. These are lifetime benefits so workers may be eligible to receive them regardless of when they were affected by foreign trade, even if they’ve already moved on to another job.
Northwest Michigan Works! will host a Worker Benefit Orientation in August for individuals who are considered to be adversely affected workers under TAA. Orientation attendees will learn more about TAA benefits including career counseling, employability skills, labor market information, resources for job training, job search allowances, relocation allowances, health coverage tax credit, and more.

Classic Instruments Releases 1988-’94 OBS Chevy Truck Package
Boyne City, MI, July 12th, 2024 — Classic Instruments is pleased to release an all-new 1988–’94 OBS Chevy Truck direct-fit package. It is an all-electric cluster featuring a speedometer, tachometer, fuel, oil, temp, and volt gauges in an OE style; available either with or without a window to view the gear position indicator. It also features a digital OLED odometer with trip meter and optional digital speed readout. Hybrid LED Lighting offers the feel of the original perimeter lighting and the visual benefits of back-lighting: even illumination and clear nighttime readability. Additional light features include check engine, high beam, shift lights, and integrated LED dimmer. The kit also includes: a wiring harness, push-button calibration for ease of setup, and built-in ECM signal filter switch to remove signal noise for smoother speedometer operation. Save space with Classic Instruments’ Zeus Speedometer Technology built-in, meaning the cluster requires no external control boxes and works directly with ECM or VSS signals. The fuel gauge is programmable for many ohm ranges with a selector switch on the back of the cluster, meaning the fuel gauge will work with the stock sending unit, any other factory sending units, or any Classic Instruments fuel sending unit. All other necessary sending units are included in a Classic Instruments GM sending unit kit. Zeus-Link is available for separate purchase for a direct connection to GM and Holley ECUs. Install using customers’ existing diffuser and lens.
This new ’88-’94 OBS Chevy truck cluster from Classic Instruments is proudly made in the USA and can be purchased direct or through any one of its authorized dealers or at holley.com.
Classic Instruments has been handcrafting in America since 1977. The company offers a full line of catalog order instrumentation for a wide range of Ford and Chevy model cars and pick-up trucks, plus over 100 universal fit instruments. The Classic Instruments’ line also includes many specialty items such as performance series instruments, Zeus speedometer technology, and Fuel-Link. Classic Instruments can build virtually anything through their dedicated Instrument Customization Unit. Whether it’s a direct-fit set, retro-fit, or complete custom their team is ready to help add “The finishing touch”TM to any project.
Proud member of the Holley Family of Brands.

Howdy there, the name's Moses. I'm sure you can tell by my picture, but I am a sophisticated elderly gent. I may be new to CAHS but I'm not new to shelter life. I came from the big city and found myself at this nice little place with many friendly faces. I get to go for plenty of walks (which I'm really good at by the way) and they give me LOTS of treats and cookies. It's really not a bad gig, but I'm looking for something permanent at this point in life.
I do well with not going to the bathroom in my kennel, I can hold it for hours if needed. I also don't mind most other dogs and I'm impartial to cats so long as they leave me alone. I'd say I'm a pretty good catch, what do you think? Stop by and meet me and maybe we'll create a lifelong friendship!
