Canton Police Sgt. Daniel Traylor successful-
ly completed Eastern Michigan University
PoliceStaff andCommandSchool recently.
The Staff and Command School is a 360-hour
program, designed to provide extensive training
focused on the management, planning, analysis
and administration of police departments and
their personnel. The program is problem-based
learning, fostering critical thinking and philoso-
phies applicable in lawenforcement today.
The unique experience takes the officer
beyond traditional operational methods and
exposes them to conceptual thinking, paving the
way for their future success as a command offi-
cer, according to a prepared statement from the
public safety office.
Police Staff and Command School is manda-
tory for all Canton command officers and is a component of the ongoing training Canton
police officers participate in on a regular basis.
Traylor has been with the department for 23 years. He is currently assigned to the
detective bureau, supervising the daily operations of seven detectives, four ordinance
officers and the crime data analyst.

“You asked for open and honest gov-
ernment-then you took action,” Vorva
said. “You have a right to expect great
things fromus.”
Among the officials in attendancewere
Wayne County Commissioner Joe Barone,
Plymouth Mayor Dan Dwyer and City
Commissioners Colleen Pobur and Dan
Dalton.
During the public comments portion of
the meeting, Pobur said her face hurt
from smiling. Pobur, Dalton and Dwyer
endorsed Heise during his campaign for
supervisor.
“You say it was hard for us to do
this...ha! It was the easiest thing I ever did
for Heise, I mean that absolutely sincere-
ly,” Pobur said, looking at Heise. “It's true
I feel that way.”
“I didn't do it for political gain, I didn't
do it for party, I did it because it was the
right thing to do for our one community
and look at the beautiful thing you voters
did-you should be so incredibly proud of
yourselves. We're so optimistic and we're
so looking forward to working together
and the BS crap going down the sewer
system,” Pobur said.

Adventures With Vultures, a name that
dates back to his hip hop days. He's
played at the Underground and the
Shelter in Detroit, the Loving Touch in
Ferndale and the Warehouse in Marine
City. Last weekend, he played at the
CoffeeBean inPlymouth.
That is what he really loves, he said,
entertaining inhis home town.
“I amPlymouth, through and through,”
he said. “I wear dog tags with the 48170
zip code on them and have a tattoo with
the coordinates of the Kellogg Park foun-
tain.”
His family, he said, is more than sup-
portive of his music. His mother and step-
father, Kim and Rick Kelp, own U.P.
Pasties and The General Store downtown
and are involved in his career, as is his
father, David Ost. His brother, Dan, 29,
still plays bass and can be heard on
recordings by several music superstars.
Older brother, Scott, 30, is an artist and
will be doing the cover of the CD, Sauter
said.
He is alsowriting songs for other artists
alongwithhis heavy class load, he said.
“My career, it's all still in the early
stages,” he said, “but I am really enjoying
making music and writing songs. Maybe
the breakupwasn't sucha bad thing.”
Sauter is planning a launch party for
his early press release “in Plymouth”
