Lost wallet returned by caring couple, Article in Elk Rapids News on 7/22/2010

Dear Editor,

Owning a house with my wife in Elk Rapids, I often read your letters to the editor and thought this would make a good one.

Spying a beautiful Michigan Saturday, I made all the preparations, hooked up the boat and headed out to enjoy a fun-filled day on the lake. My destination is normally Elk, Torch or East Bay. This time though, with friends out on Glen Lake, I headed west. Needing to gas up, I stopped at Grumpy’s (the Mobile station on M-72). While filling up, I placed my wallet… Continue

GM earns profit Revenue up 40 percent over last year's 1st quarter

MC — DETROIT (AP) — In less than a year, General Motors Co. has roared back from bankruptcy to a quarterly profit. Now comes the hard part: sustaining the income and repaying billions of dollars in government aid.

There are signs that GM is on track to do just that. Revenue is up 40 percent over the first quarter of last year. U.S. sales rose 17 percent for the quarter, and the automaker made an operating profit in North America, which had been a cash incinerator. Units in Asia and Latin Americ… Continue
