FROM THE EDITOR Happy 2018!

Like many of you, I have been distracted over the past few weeks by having my boys home, college football, holiday celebrations and Netflix (of course!). The last several days, however, I have been more motivated to get back in the groove of productivity and start accomplishing some of the things on my “to-do” list.

If you’re like me and are ready to conquer your “to-do” list, I want to encourage you to reach out to the many locallyowned businesses that make The Grand Season magazine possible. We are excited to partner with these businesses, who not only offer amazing services, but also make living in the Northwest Valley an incredible experience!

As you settle into your routine over the next several weeks, I hope you can enjoy the many activities that make living in the Valley of the Sun so amazing.

Best-actor nominee Peter Fonda (for 1993’s “Ulee’s Gold”), was last seen in the Netflix film “The Most Hated Woman in America,” with Oscar-winner Melissa Leo. Now he has completed two films: “The Ballad of Lefty Brown,” with Bill Pullman, Jim Caviezel and Kathy Baker.

Fonda has just been cast in Amazon’s “Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan” reboot with John Krasinski in the title role (he’s also producing).

It’s set for release in early 2018. Krasinski also will direct and star with his wife, Emily Blunt, who appears in “Mary Poppins” Christmas 2018.

IS YOUR BRAIN DRAINED?

Habits that can help maintain a healthy brain

Everyone has those days. You’re operating in a fog, or perhaps you forgot a family member’s name in the middle of dinner, or maybe you just find it hard to concentrate on work or hobbies. When this starts to happen more often, you may start to worry.

The good news is there are simple things you can do to clear the cobwebs and regain your focus.

Psychotherapist and Best-Selling Author Dr. Mike Dow says we often don’t realize the brain is just like the heart, our muscles, our lungs and bones—it needs maintenance to help keep it working at its very best.

To help you reach your optimal brain health, try the following tips.

Lean something new If you catch yourself in a rut or locked in your routine, it may be time to find ways to stretch your mind muscles with a new and challenging activity.

Researchers have discovered that healthy brains need certain levels of reserves, and challenging them is one way to build those reserves.

Feed your brain The brain needs food and nutrients, and the right food can go a long way to support brain health. An antioxidant-rich diet including things like unsweetened tea, berries and turmeric can protect the brain from damage that comes from aging and oxidative stress.

Cultivate relationships As life and circumstances bring inevitable changes, the number of people we count as friends and loved ones can change over the years. It takes effort, but Dow says it’s important to try to maintain our relationships and be open to creating new ones, because they can have a profound effect on brain health.

Sleep We often short ourselves on sleep when life gets busy, but it’s important to make it a priority. “Think of nighttime sleep as a wash-and-rinse cycle that clears away the ‘bad stuff’ that builds up during the day,” Dow says.

EAT RIGHT

1. Heart health Large population studies show that people who regularly eat nuts, such as pistachios, have a lower risk of dying from heart disease or suffering a heart attack.

2. Anti-inflammatory Pistachios contain a special form of vitamin E called gamma tocopherol, which has unique antiinflammatory properties.

Gamma tocopherol levels have also been shown to decrease as we age.

3. Weight loss Studies show pistachios positively promote weight maintenance as the dietary fiber, fat and protein all work together to make us feel fuller and satiated longer, plus removing them from the shell slows down eating.

Fall in Love with Your Home Again with Help from the Experts at Altra Home Décor Is 2018 the year for you to get the kitchen of your dreams, that large walk in shower, or transform the look of your home with window treatments?

Consider the experienced designers at Altra Home Décor to help select the perfect window treatments, flooring, cabinets, and countertops for your home improvement projects. Marianne Phillips and her husband, George, have been in business since 2005. They began solely as a window covering provider and today are a one stop shop for every area of your remodeling project, as well as a preferred dealer of Hunter Douglas window covering products.

Altra’s 5000SF design center is kept up to date with the latest trends in flooring, counters, cabinets, backsplash mosaics and window coverings, along with a fabric selection that at any given time numbers over 30,000 options.

Differentiating from the bigbox stores, Altra will pair you with an experienced designer who will guide you through the process from start to finish while outlining costs and possible timelines.

Whether it’s a one window project to bring a room together or a whole home remodel that completely transforms your home, your designer will be there leading you through the selection process.

From fabrics and decorative hardware to cabinets and counters, Altra can provide everything you need for your project.

“We offer superior customer

service and personalized attention to detail because we have such a wide offering of products, as well as knowledgeable, friendly, and sincere staff,” says Marianne, who adds that, “many of our customers are repeat clients and referrals.”

As our homes become more technologically savvy, the window coverings are keeping up with these advancements.

Motorized shades from Hunter Douglas, known as Powerview, allow the homeowner to set up schedules for their shades, and to control them with their smart device from anywhere in the world -a perfect option for if you are a part time resident.

To complete the ambiance of your home, custom window treatments such as stationary panels, draperies, valances and cornices can be made, along with bedding, pillows and upholstery in our on-site workroom.

Wood look tile has received major upgrades in the past few years with larger planks sizes, a printing process that mimics real wood, and an all-encompassing color line that will suit any décor.

For updating countertops, quartz now outsells granite in many markets. Quartz allows the look of granite, or even white marbles, without the risk of staining, or the labor of sealing the material every few years.

The designers at Altra Home Décor will come to your home for a free in-home consultation and review products, samples, and color choices, that are going to be the perfect fit. “Once the

Working with Altra Home Decor’s design team and reliable vendors will make your transition from beginning to end a seamless one,” says Marianne.

In addition to Hunter Douglas, Altra Home Décor also deals with premiere vendors including Mohawk carpets; Shaw hardwoods and laminates; Cambria, Silestone and Caesarstone quartz countertops; Diamond by Masterbrand and Decora by Masterbrand custom cabinets. Many of the products that we showcase are manufactured in the USA. Visit the Altra Home Décor design center, located at 11325 W Bell Road in Surprise, to fully

experience and appreciate the company’s expertise. The design center is open 9 am to 5 pm Monday through Friday and 9 am to 4 pm on Saturday.

LIFE HACKS

SMART TIPS AND TRICKS

Save yourself both time and money!

• Before frying, sprinkle a little salt in your pan. This will help keep the oil from splattering.

• Adding vodka to your shampoo can strengthen your hair, prevent dry scalp, and stop dandruff.

• Pineapple juice is five times more effective than cough syrup. It also prevents colds and the flu.

• If you are coughing uncontrollably, raise your hands above your head and it will stop.

• Placing a banana peel over a bruise for 10-30 minutes will almost completely remove its color.

• When proofreading, read the document out loud to yourself.

Your mouth will catch errors your eyes might glance over.

• Can’t brush your teeth after a meal? Gargle salt water instead.

You’ll be amazed at all the gunk that comes out.

• Did you know that it’s beneficial to lick small cuts? A variety of compounds in human saliva can speed up healing.

• Microwave Nutella and milk in a mug for superior hot chocolate.

• Reading a book before bed makes your eyes tired and tricks your brain into feeling tired.

Falling asleep then becomes much easier.

DOES CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAVE YOU WORRIED?

Have no fear and drive straight to King Automotive Repair.

King Automotive Repair services, repairs, rebuilds or replaces engines and transmissions for most vehicles. “When you work with us, you’ll get the complete attention of a team that understands your vehicle’s engine inside and out,” says Dan Groman and Doug Campbell, co-owners of King Automotive Repair.

Dan continues, “We can take care of your engine regardless of what type of vehicle you have.”

King Automotive Repair is a full-service repair shop, in addition to engines and transmissions; their services include air conditioning, brakes, steering and suspension, diagnostic repairs, and routine maintenance. “Cars are expensive, but you don’t have to purchase a new vehicle every few years when you work with us for your automotive routine maintenance,” says Dan. “We’ll make sure everything is working properly and help you avoid costly repairs or purchases in the future.”

Doug and Dan say being independent repair shop owners amid national competitors has not altered how they conduct business.

Dan says, “Back when I

worked in the corporate world, I was told by a wise leader, ‘Don’t be concerned about what the competition does. Be concerned about what you do.’ That has always stuck with me and that is exactly what we do at King Automotive Repair.”

Dan couples that sage advice with a King Automotive Repair focus that includes consistency of service, excellence in workmanship, fair pricing, free one-hour diagnostic testing, free shuttle service, a 12-month/12,000-mile warranty, and honors most extended and nationwide warranties, as well as makes it the policy to put customers’ needs first. Dan says, “We’ve maintained a 98 percent repeat-customer base.”

Customers can be confident that King Automotive Repair has the remedy for vehicle breakdowns, even the kind of automotive setbacks that result from a do-it-yourself repair that finishes with leftover parts and the question: “How could that possibly happen to my vehicle?” “We will have the answer,” says Doug.

Suppose that a driver reads

Doug Campbell and Dan Groman Owners of King Automotive Repair

says, they will discuss the results with the customer and provide an estimate for repairs.

this sentence found on the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality’s emission-testing pamphlet and panics: “1996 and newer on-board diagnostics- tested vehicles will not pass the test if the check engine light is on.”

No worries. King Automotive Repair’s free one-hour diagnostic test, is available without having to Dan Groman, Owner make an appointment, and can determine the cause of this dreaded dashboard alert. After the test, Dan

King Automotive Repair is located at 10002 W. Santa Fe Drive in Sun City, is open 7am – 4pm Monday through Friday. To make an appointment or for assistance, call 623-9334990.

Electronic Wizards Making the digital world work for you.

Do you have an amazing TV, but have no idea how to watch it? You’re not alone in the maze of digital technology. Electronic Wizards is helping homeowners get the maximum use of digital technology without the enormous price tag.

Located in Surprise, Electronic Wizards owner, Keith Brown, a Marine Corps veteran, has spent his career making sense out of the ever-changing landscape of communications. Keith got his start in electronics and communications over 30 years ago while in the Marines. After his service, Keith worked for various companies in the cable, satellite and cellular phone industry. While working for communications giants, Keith was concerned about how companies treated customers like numbers, and weren’t concerned with their customer’s needs. As a result of his growing concern, he started Electronic Wizards almost 25 years ago.

Electronic Wizards is the Northwest Valley’s premier service provider, specializing in TV, sound systems, computers, HDTV antennas, satellite, universal remotes, security camera systems and much more. Because they truly care about what customers need, Electronic Wizards offer an in-home consultation for only $49, where they will sit down and evaluate your phone, TV and internet bills, and may help you cut your costs, while at the same time increasing your entertainment options.

With the nice weather just around the corner, Keith says, “A lot of people want to spend time on their patio, so many home-owners are upgrading their patios with TV’s and sound systems.” Additionally, he says, “With many of our resident’s not living here year-round, and rising concerns about safety in our community, security camera systems that are connected with a click of a button, provides homeowners peace of mind.”

Call Electronic Wizards today at 623-815-7575 or visit them at electronicwizards.net to schedule your in-home consultation and learn more about how Keith can help you eliminate the frustration of watching TV, and restore your enjoyment for the things you love.

DRIVING WITH DOGS

PAWS CORNER

What’s required and what’s recommended?

Q: I am planning to travel cross-country with my two dogs. Which states require they be restrained, and what are the penalties if they’re not?

A: No state in the U.S. has yet passed a law specifically requiring pets to wear restraints or be in a carrier when riding in a car. Most legislation in place considers unrestrained pets a form of distracted driving. So at the moment, it’s unlikely you’ll be stopped simply for having an unrestrained pet in the car. If the pet is distracting you or obstructing your view of the road, however, that’s not safe no matter how legal (or illegal) it may be. Restraining pets in the car just makes sense. There are a number of restraint systems available that will keep your pet comfortable and prevent it from moving around too much, which in turn, will keep you from getting distracted.

AAA SENIOR PLACEMENT AZ A Message from Sue Royer “I was born and raised in inner city Chicago, the sixth of eighteen children with fifteen brothers. Being the oldest daughter, I was always a caregiver which I believe influenced me to pursue work in the healthcare industry. Today, I have three daughters and five grandchildren.

Years ago, I volunteered for hospice and knew immediately that helping seniors was my calling. I was soon employed by hospice but I felt something was missing. I realized it was the limited time I was able to spend with my clients. Having my own business allows me to provide the intimate hands on service needed in our community. I am committed to our seniors throughout their lives and I thank the community for the opportunity to serve.”

INTERNET DANGERS Never underestimate the threat!

SAFE SURFING

The thieves are hoping you don’t notice.

When you put your cursor over an address, link or graphic in your email (called a mouseover), the real address will show up. That’s a good way to determine whether the email or website might be a scam.

Traveling around the internet can be dangerous, even if you know what you’re doing.

One way to be safer is to understand website addresses, called URLs.

For example, if the email appears to be from some-one you know, a different email address might show up. Don’t click it!

A URL is the address of a webpage somewhere on the internet. It means Uniform Resource Locator, and it tells you the location of the webpage—except when it doesn’t because it’s a fake. All it takes is one single letter to be out of place to change a safe site to a dangerous one.

Some of the common URL extensions (the letters at the end of the address) are: .com, .net, .edu, .gov and .org.

If you see any that say .ru, that’s Russia. One ending in .cn is China.

Unless you’re certain of the email sender, don’t open it.

The beginning of a safe URL (say, a website where you do business) might have https—the S stands for a secure site.

It’s usually on websites that sell things and expect you to put in your credit card number. The majority of these sites are safe—except when they’re not.

MOMENTS IN TIME

WHAT HAPPENED IN HISTORY

Big events that occurred in the month of January

January 14, 1875 The theologian, musician, philosopher and Nobel Prizewinning physician Albert Schweitzer is born on this day in 1875 in Upper-Alsace, Germany (now Haut-Rhin, France).

January 15, 1945 Adolf Hitler takes to his underground bunker, where he remains for 105 days until he commits suicide.

January 18, 1912 After a two-month ordeal, the expedition of British explorer Robert Falcon Scott arrives at the South Pole only to find that Roald Amundsen, the Norwegian explorer, had preceded them by just over a month.

Weighing 1.33 pounds, and christened the “Cullinan,” it was the largest diamond ever found.

January 25, 1924 The first Winter Olympics take off in style at Chamonix in the French Alps. Spectators were thrilled by the ski jump and bobsled as well as 12 other events involving a total of six sports. The “International Winter Sports Week,” as it was known, was a great success, and in 1928 the International Olympic Committee (IOC) officially designated the Winter Games, staged in St. Moritz, Switzerland, as the second Winter Olympics.

January 27, 1965 The Shelby GT 350, a version of a Ford Mustang sports car developed by the American auto racer and car designer Carroll Shelby, is launched. The engine remained in production through the end of the 1960s.

January 20, 1981 Minutes after Ronald Reagan’s inauguration as the 40th president of the United States, the 52 U.S. captives held at the U.S. embassy in Teheran, Iran, are released, ending the 444-day Iran Hostage Crisis.

January 24, 1935 Canned beer makes its debut on this day in 1935. In partnership with the American Can Company, the Gottfried Krueger Brewing Company delivered 2,000 cans of Krueger’s Finest Beer and Krueger’s Cream Ale to faithful Krueger drinkers in Richmond, Virginia.

January 25, 1905 At the Premier Mine in Pretoria, South Africa, a 3,106-carat diamond is discovered during a routine inspection by the mine’s superintendent.

THE GRAND SEASON • JANUARY 2018

It was 20th-century French journalist, poet, aristocrat and aviator Antoine de SaintExupery—best known for his novella, “The Little Prince”—who made the following sage observation: “A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.”

Eggplants weren’t always the deep purple color we know today; originally, the vegetables were white. The color, paired with the ovoid shape, is how the eggplant got its name.

Those who suffer from nescience are unlikely to know what “nescience” means—an absence of knowledge.

The first wristwatch was made by an English clockmaker in 1571.

Described as “a wristlet in which there was a clocke,” the watch was presented as a gift to Queen Elizabeth I. If you’re like the average human, you have about 615 hairs for every square centimeter of your skin.
