Abrazo West Campus announces expansion

By Christina Fuoco-Karasinski

The Abrazo West Campus in Goodyear is planning a multimillion-dollar expansion to meet the growing need for inpatient beds in the hospital serving the West Valley.

“It’s very exciting for the community and the hospital,” said Stan Holm, CEO of Abrazo West and Maryvale campuses.

A 12-bed nursing unit will be built in existing shelled space, fulfilling a projection for added hospital capacity in the coming months. The new unit will provide additional beds for telemetry patients, while offering the flexibility to accommodate medical/surgical patients as needed.

“Seven years ago, we had a $26 million expansion and that included our south tower where we had shelled space and additional operating room space,” Holm said. “We knew we were going to need the space as more patients are choosing us.”

Abrazo Community Health Network CEO Frank Molinaro added, “Bed expansion in the hospital’s south tower will help accommodate the area’s increasing population and serve the patients and physicians who are entrusting Abrazo West with their care.”

Holm explained during the winter season, the hospital is frequently at full occupancy. Outside of winter, “we’re at a higher census than we’ve ever had before.

A census is how many patients are in beds each day. Patients are choosing us and it’s a growing population.”

Abrazo West Campus staff recently celebrated the hospital’s 15th anniversary. Established in 2003, Abrazo West has evolved into a thriving medical center serving the West Valley and beyond.

The project is expected to be complete in 2019. The hospital is located at 13677 W. McDowell Road.

“Abrazo West Campus opened 15 years ago as a small community hospital and has evolved into a thriving medical center serving the West Valley and beyond.

Over time the hospital has added complex

services like the Level 1 Trauma program, neurosurgery, electrophysiology and interventional cardiology. This addition is another step in providing the resources needed to deliver on our mission to help people live happier, healthier lives,” Mo-

New Buckeye school to be named after McCain

By Steven Solomon

The first U.S. public school to be named after the late Sen. John McCain will likely be in Buckeye, following a unanimous vote by the Buckeye Elementary School District on October 1.

McCain died on August 25, with his wife and their family at his side, after he was diagnosed with brain cancer about a year earlier.

The John S. McCain III Elementary School will be the West Valley district’s eighth school, for about 900 to 950 students in grades K-8. Two potential opening timelines are being considered, one in the fall of 2020 and the other being the fall of 2021 depending on emerging details associated with the project.

“The planning process timeline for building and designing John McCain’s

namesake has provided the district with a unique opportunity to create a permanent tribute to the late senator’s legacy in the city of Buckeye,” said Dr. Kristi Sandvik, the district superintendent. “Much like the senator, the story of Buckeye is one of service to others,” she added.

District officials worked closely with

Residents gather to discuss state’s criminal justice system

By Audrey Hernandez

Community members are concerned because Arizona’s incarceration rate has gone up, but crime has decreased, according to remarks made at the September 21 Arizona Town Hall at Estrella Mountain Community College Conference Center.

“We spend $1 billion to incarcerate an increasingly larger number of our population while our crime rate is going down,” said Arizona Town Hall President Tara Jackson.

“The per capita imprisonment rate has increased since 2006. As population increased and crime went down, we nonetheless continued to increase the number of people going to prison.

That’s the statistic we need to look at.”

Arizona Town Hall partnered with ASU’s Morrison Institute for Public Policy to conduct the Arizona Town Hall Background Report that describes the criminal justice system.

With the Arizona Town Hall Background Report, analysts and researchers from ASU found Arizona has the fourth-highest incarceration rate in the nation. About 56,000 people are in Ari-

zona’s prison and county jails.

Rehabilitation and public safety were recurring topics.

“I believe the principal goal for Arizona’s criminal justice system is rehabilitation. Not only after they are released from jail but thinking more proactively and helping people before they are imprisoned,” said Rio Salado College Director Todd Aakhus.

Arizona also has an issue with prisoners re-entering the prison system after they get out. Prisoners are given about $100 when they are released from jail.

They are limited to the jobs they can apply to and places they can live because they are felons. According to the Arizona Town Hall background report, 18 percent of released prisoners return to the prison system within six months.

“We need to provide prisoners with resources they would need, to establish themselves outside of prison. They need to be provided resources like job skills, education and transportation,” said Paradise Valley Community College student Melynda Lopez.

The group discussion portion of the meeting was broken into four parts,

each of which featured one question to discuss. One question was, “What could be done to improve the criminal justice system prior to incarceration?”

Substance abuse and mental illness were discussed at length.

“The biggest issue is substance abuse,” Jackson said. “I asked one of the Department of Corrections officials about substance abuse in the prison and with crimes. He said, ‘If we could eliminate substance abuse, we would maybe have 1 percent of the prison population.’”

The Arizona Town Hall Background Report stated taxpayers pay about $525 annually for every person in the criminal justice system.

“Taxpayers in Arizona spend more on a prisoner than a student and that’s just concerning,” said Kathy Knecht, independent candidate for the Arizona Senate.

“We need to think differently about the criminal justice system. The ‘tough on crime’ and ‘lock everyone up’ mentality is not working,” Jackson said.

“We need to think differently about how we manage substance abuse, which is probably the most important factor that’s affecting our criminal justice system in a negative way.”

Former AARP Arizona President Len Kirschner has been going to Arizona Town Hall meetings since the late ’80s.

He spoke of the importance of voting.

“The criminal justice system is an incredible economic issue for the state,” Kirschner said. “If people are concerned about what Arizona spends

their money on, then they need to get educated on issues affecting the community and go to the legislature.”

Jackson’s goal is to make the community aware of the issues in the criminal justice system affecting them.

“Based on what they learned today, whether it was from the materials that were provided or from each other, what I want people to get from this meeting is that they are all a part of the solution to solve the issues of the criminal justice system,” Jackson said. “We each need to take action in whatever sphere or community we are in to make a difference.”

Arizona Town Hall brings awareness to important issues occurring within the state by bringing the community together to engage in “respectful” discussion.

The community meetings are held throughout the year in preparation for Arizona Town Hall’s statewide meetings November 8 to November 10 at Sheraton Crescent Hotel in Phoenix. In the statewide meeting, participants will have an in-depth discussion about the criminal justice system. They will come to an agreement about further action to the criminal justice system to conduct their final recommendations report.

Goodyear lights up city buildings to bring awareness to domestic violence

By West Valley View staff

As part of the city of Goodyear’s commitment to raise awareness and educate the public on the resources available to domestic abuse victims, the police operations building, city hall and library will remain lit purple this month.

Domestic violence, according to the National Domestic Violence Hotline, is defined as “a pattern of behaviors used by one partner to maintain power and control over another partner in

an intimate relationship.” This is also referred to as intimate partner violence or relationship abuse. It is important to remember domestic violence does not discriminate. It can happen to anyone of any ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, age, gender, socioeconomic background or education level.

Domestic violence victims can call Goodyear Police Department Victim Assistance for help at 623-882-7677.

KB Home to resume development in Encantada Estates

By Connor Dziawura

KB Home recently purchased 113 finished lots within Buckeye’s Encantada Estates for nearly $4.5 million.

That purchase, however, is just the beginning of a planned twophase transaction.

Located at the northeast corner of Rooks and Beloat roads, a future second phase will provide KB Homes with another 100 finished lots. That phase is expected to close next year at $4.1 million, according to Patty Lafferty, principal at The Land Agency, which is the land brokerage firm that represented the seller, Everest Holdings. The entire 213-lot transaction averages to just over $40,000 per lot, she said.

“One thing to consider is the finished lot inventory in Buckeye,” Lafferty said. “This is one of the last finished lot communities available for a homebuilder to buy today. There’s a couple other positions that builders could look at again from a finished lot perspective, but this is one of the last true finished lot communities that are available for a homebuilder to buy.”

The community was originally developed by Richmond American Homes, Lafferty said. The completed homes were sold to buyers, while the remaining finished lots were sold to Everest Holdings due to the economic downturn.

Encantada Estates marks KB Home’s second Buckeye location. The first is Blue Horizons at the northeast corner of Tuthill and Yuma roads.

According to Lafferty, KB Home plans for Encantada Estates to target entry-level homebuyers.

“This area, Buckeye specifically, and then also this specific area within Buckeye, is definitely very entry-level targeted,” she explained, citing D.R. Horton’s Terravista homes to the north as an example. D.R. Horton’s website shows Terravista floor plans ranging from $187,990 to $240,990.

“The current FHA loan limits I believe are just shy of $295,000, and so that’s the target,” Lafferty added. “That’s the price point that KB is going to want to be in to deliver entry level product.”

Representatives for KB Home did not respond to the West Valley View’s requests for comment.

Union Pacific, WV police departments partner to increase safety

By Connor Dziawura

Union Pacific brought its Crossing Accident Reduction Education and Safety program to the West Valley October 4, while officials in Pinal County investigated a car-train collision near Combs and Rittenhouse roads in Queen Creek.

Through its UP CARES program, Union Pacific partners with local law enforcement agencies to enforce railroad safety and educate the public about related violations, said Senior Special Agent Mike Brucks. The Avondale, Buckeye and Goodyear police departments aided in the October 4 joint effort near Luke Air Force Base.

In addition to educating the public, reporters and officers had the opportunity to ride the locomotive and observe motorists’ behavior from the same point of view as the engineers and conductors.

Avondale, Buckeye and Goodyear representatives said their respective departments previously partnered with Union Pacific for initiatives like this.

“This is an opportunity for us to educate the public and for us to make

contacts with the public to reiterate the dangers that go along with crossing any kind of warning signs when it comes to the railroad tracks,” said Buckeye Police spokeswoman Donna Rossi.

Avondale Police spokesman Jaret Redfearn added, “Our agency wanted to participate to spread knowledge to our community about what the laws are involving railroad crossings and the real dangers of violating those laws.”

During the program, which took place along MC-85 from Cotton Lane to Dysart Road between 7 and 10 a.m., Avondale, Buckeye and Goodyear officers found 38 railroad violations, according to Rossi. Additional nonrailroad infractions were spotted, too.

“The top priority of the Goodyear Police Department is certainly the

public safety, so certainly when Union Pacific Railroad reached out to us with their educational program and enforcement, we support educating the community on being safe around railroad crossings,” said Goodyear Police spokeswoman Lisa Berry.

“We believe it is important to educate not only drivers but also pedestrians on the risks involved with train-railroad crossings,” she continued. “So, we want drivers to follow those safety laws and the safety signals when they see a train approaching. Those arms go down and the lights flash, but we also encourage pedestrians to stay off the tracks.”

Locomotive engineer Earl Perkins said he witnesses traffic violations every day, citing risks such as motorists attempting to go through or around railroad crossing gates. In fact, he even witnessed an individual get pulled over for attempting the latter during the October 4 event.

The locomotives operated by Perkins weigh more than 400,000 pounds, which increases when carrying cargo.

The time and distance required to stop when debris, pedestrians or vehicles are spotted on train tracks varies depending on speed and cargo. A press release issued by Union Pacific said a freight train traveling 55 miles per hour can take more than a mile to stop.

“It has to be a very hopeless feeling to be on a train knowing that you’re fixing to hit a car or a person and there’s nothing you can do about it,” Brucks explained.

Brucks, who comes from Texas and frequently travels to spread Union Pacific’s message of safety, said his division runs from Yuma to Texan cities like Dalhart and Alpine. The October 4 event was his 10th this year, he added.

“Our company is dedicated to a commitment to safety,” Brucks said. “Our goal is to have zero hits and zero employee injuries, OK. Now, is that a reality? I don’t know. But we do things to try to lessen those risks.”

Aside from education initiatives such as the October 4 one, Union Pacific’s website offers the ability to schedule free presentations, as well as other resources.

“Accidents between trains and cars don’t happen frequently, however, when they do, usually somebody gets seriously hurt or killed,” Brucks emphasized. “Take Buckeye, for example.

They don’t probably have very many accidents involving trains on a yearly basis, so it doesn’t become the focus.

However, when they have those incidents, they are deadly.”

PCSO spokeswoman Navideh Forghani said the incident in Queen Creek wasn’t a traditional train-car collision. The driver, who she said as of print time has yet to be found, was apparently out mudding in the desert and their car got stuck on the tracks. She did not know exactly when it occurred or if the driver even saw the train approaching. Forghani added witnesses saw someone running away from the car. There were no injuries.

As for what Brucks would say to pedestrians and motorists nearing railroad tracks, he “would just tell them to cross at designated crossings and to obey the warning signs,” he advised. “If they do that, they will have no problem.”

Volunteers needed to help prepare tax returns in 2019

By West Valley View staff

IRS is looking for volunteers to train for the upcoming filing season to provide free tax help. Working in the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) and Tax Counseling for the Elderly (TCE) program requires no experience.

“The IRS works closely with key partners like the Maricopa County VITA Network that supports and promote the VITA and Arizona AARP Tax-Aide program,” said IRS spokesman David Tucker II. “There is a role for anyone who is interested, anyone who wants to help and give back to their community.”

The IRS VITA and TCE program offers free tax preparation to people with low-to-moderate income who need help preparing their own tax returns.

This includes people with disabilities, senior citizens and many sites can assist individuals for whom English is a second language. During the 2018 filing season, volunteers helped prepare

Clint Hickman, a member of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, to ask permission of McCain’s wife, Cindy, to name a new elementary school after her late husband. She was excited about the proposal, approved the request, and said she is interested in being involved in the development of the school. She did not indicate any restrictions on the use of his name and school officials said they will be working closely with the community and the McCain family on the school’s design.

No cost estimate yet The projected cost of the new school has not yet been determined.

“There is no estimation yet, and the only point of reference I can offer is what we spent on the last site, approximately $21 million. However, fluctuating construction costs, features designed to support new programming, etc., will all impact the cost this time around,” said Dr. Mike Lee, assistant superintendent.

“That said, the last site came in on time and under budget, which we believe is a demonstration of our commitment to being efficient and fiscally responsible.”

Plans have not yet been approved and a builder has not been chosen.

“We can’t do conceptions, maps, etc., because of how early we are in the process,” Lee said. “Once the procurement process is completed in the coming weeks, this type of material will become available.

“The location is being narrowed down, however, there are final processes that must be completed before it can officially be designated a site,” Lee said. “At this point we can only state that it will be centrally located in a way that allows for the most efficient drawing of students based on projected population.”

Students attending the new school will be drawn from multiple existing schools in Buckeye, according to school officials, and also from communities that are now in the planning stages. The new school is intended to maintain current numbers as Buckeye expands and the number of school-age children increases.

Character traits touted District officials and board members have noted that discussions about the decision to name the new school after McCain have generated ideas about how to integrate themes of the senator’s life into the fabric of the school.

Opportunities to explore and demonstrate the character traits exemplified

by McCain include celebrations, exercises and challenges for students.

“We believe there will be numerous opportunities to embed the themes of Sen. McCain’s life and service into both academic and social/behavioral learning. The possibilities are limitless, as it is our belief that his legacy would provide an incredible foundation on which to build both academic and character-development focused experiences,” Lee said. “We are committed to getting it right in every conceivable way.”

McCain was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives from Arizona in 1982 and elected to the U.S. Senate in 1986. He was the Republican Party’s nominee for president in the 2008 election. Although Barack Obama won, McCain won Arizona with 1,230,111 votes to Obama’s 1,034,707 votes and Arizona awarded its 10 electoral votes to McCain.

After his death, McCain laid in state at the Arizona State Capitol in Phoenix, followed by a motorcade conducted by Arizona National Guard personnel in a public procession to the North Phoenix Baptist Church.

He is buried at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, where he graduated in 1958 and was commissioned in the U.S. Navy as a naval aviator. Shot down over North Vietnam in 1967, he was a prisoner of war until released in 1973.

“It is an honor to name the eighth K-8 in the Buckeye Elementary District after Sen. John Sidney McCain III,” said Marcus Eads, board president, in a statement. “Sen. McCain served his country and his state with honor for his entire adult life. He treated others with respect, even if he disagreed with them.

He led by example, how a politician can disagree with dignity. He always voted what his conscience thought was best for his country and his state, even if it was not popular. He embodied, in all aspects, what it means to be a hero.”

Student arrested for having firearm at EFHS

By Sierra Poore

A male student was arrested October 4 at Estrella Foothills High School for bringing an unloaded firearm, a fully loaded magazine and three knives to school, said Goodyear Police Department spokeswoman Lisa Berry.

At approximately 8:30 a.m., school staff received an alert through the school’s anonymous app that a male student was in possession of a handgun on campus, Berry said.

After removing the student from class and searching his backpack, the school resource officers and staff found the four weapons and full magazine, Berry said.

According to a police alert, the firearm was stolen property.

The student was arrested without incident and booked into Durango Juvenile Facility. Police wouldn’t reveal the boy’s name because he’s a minor.

Berry said that for the most part students didn’t know the incident was occurring.

“There was no panic or anything,”

Berry said.

Instead of shutting down for the rest of the day, the school sent home an alert to parents through email, text and telephone letting them know what had taken place, Berry said.

In a Facebook post, EFHS said, “In the interest of transparency and keeping families informed, we want to inform you immediately of an incident that took place today. EFHS administration received information through our anonymous alerts system stating a student had a weapon on campus.

“The student was immediately located and isolated from other students without incident. It was confirmed that the student was in possession of a firearm and knives. The student was removed from campus and the investigation is being handled by the Goodyear Police Department. This was an isolated incident and students are safe. For these reasons, the normal school day has proceeded without interruption.”

Loop 303 gets life-extending pavement treatment

By West Valley View staff

A long stretch of Loop 303 is the latest to undergo an oil-based treatment to extend the life of the pavement on Valley freeways.

Completed recently in less than a day, this work represents the most miles of freeway pavement the Arizona Department of Transportation has refreshed in a single fog seal project.

In all, 21 miles of Loop 303 from I-10 in Goodyear to Happy Valley Parkway in Peoria were treated.

“This process allows us to keep the existing rubberized asphalt pavement in place while saving valuable state highway funds for other improvements,” said Steve Boschen, who directs ADOT’s Infrastructure Delivery and Operations Division. “Similar to changing the oil in your car at regular intervals, this extends the life of the pavement.”

In the past two years, other stretches of Phoenix-area freeways, including I-10, Loop 101 and State Route 51, have also been refreshed with the pavement sealant.

These projects have benefited from employee innovations that help limit how long freeways need to be closed for fog sealing.

For example, ADOT maintenance crews fashioned large diamond-shaped metal covers that are lifted into place by workers in trucks to protect HOV-

lane pavement markers when the oilbased sealant is being applied along carpool lanes. This “reverse stencil” saves time and avoids the expense of repainting HOV lane markers at an estimated cost of $310 each.

ADOT focused on planning and assigning adequate resources to limit the length of closures needed for the Loop 303 improvement. Working from both ends of the project’s limits, crews finished applying the pavement seal coat in a matter of hours using a fleet of tank trucks equipped with spray nozzles.

The team also quickly picked up barricades as segments of Loop 303 were ready to reopen in stages during the day. The entire freeway reopened two hours ahead of schedule.

“This was a huge team effort with preparations that started months ago,” said Randy Everett, ADOT’s Central District administrator. “We focused on lessening the impacts on drivers. The timing of getting traffic back on the freeway exceeded expectations. That’s a tribute to all employees who had a hand in getting the job done.”

With 155 lane miles now treated along Loop 303, ADOT is looking ahead to additional pavement treatments in coming years.

MARGULIES’ OPINION — jimmymargulies.com

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Thoughts on science Editor:

Am I the only one to critique the work of Dr. Josiah Zayner? Dr. Zayner is the CEO of Odin. He has two degrees, in biochemistry and molecular biophysics. He developed a kit called DIY Crisper, which is supposed to alter your DNA; he calls this “bio-hacking.” He did an experiment on himself to inhibit the production of myostatin in the muscles of his arms. A deficiency of myostatin in newborn infants causes what is called the “Baby Hercules Syndrome.” Babies are born looking like bodybuilders, yet they did not lift weights in the womb. But, if you inject something that is going to stop myostatin from being produced in your body, you will cause the heart muscle to thicken, leading to heart problems. My critique is not in a negative way. Dr. Zayner is a very bright young man. Years from now, he will make an impressive contribution to medical science.

There is also a $100 million research project underway to increase the human IQ. It’s headed by Brian Johnson (Kernel). They are developing an implant to be placed in the brain to enhance learning. I would like to see more stem-cell research done in this area. By altering the RNA protein synthesis, we can “speed up” the formation of (more) neural pathways. As I said in a previous letter, this is how your brain stores a new skill you’ve learned – like riding a bike or playing the piano: “Once you learn it, you never forget it.” This may be the cure to mental retardation, or a cure for brain damage due to a stroke.

Although cloning (particularly of embryos) is illegal in the United States, body parts like an eye or a heart can increase the quality of life (and lifespan) of human beings. One lady had her cat cloned for $50,000! What about cloning a child who died in an accident or by illness?

I nearly died from a ruptured appendix at 15. I didn’t have the usual symptoms.

Just occasional stomach aches that came and went (it’s called subacute appendicitis). I ended up going to the Kaiser Foundation Hospital in Santa Clara, California.

The preliminary diagnosis was an ovarian cyst. It wasn’t until the senior resident ordered a CBC that I was properly diagnosed. I went in at 1 p.m. and underwent surgery by 5 p.m. That was way back on October 26, 1970. I came home early from school with a bad stomachache.

Thank God my dad came home for lunch. We went to pick up my mom from the cleaner where she worked. I spent three weeks in the hospital (two weeks in a coma). Finally went back to school by February 1971. I told my doctors, “If I ever get lost, I have a road map on my stomach.”

I have the I-10 and the I-5 (which is now the I-10 and I-17). Now, to find my location, I use the app called Google Maps. That’s how I found Global Auto. They used to be in Goodyear and are now in Tolleson.

Just down the block (west) from Western Container.

Global warming

Editor: Think these record-breaking storms are just a part to the normal weather cycle? Think things will go back to normal as usual? I am sorry to say the bad news is that it is going to get worse and there is nothing we can do about it.

Unfortunately, there are certain laws that govern the universe (physics) that just cannot be changed. We on this planet better get ready for a whole bunch of weather disasters, because they are coming.

At first, the frequency increases, then intensity, then duration, then increased flooding and the damage it brings. It has started, and there is nothing humans can do to stop it.

This is very important to understand.

This will not be a slow, progressive problem. It will flip very rapidly.

This means that the frequency, intensity, destructive forces, cyclones, tornadoes, hurricanes, global flooding, coastal flooding, etc., will escalate.

Oh, not just weather, but earthquakes and increased volcanic activity are on the way, too.

“Global warming – what a bunch of bunk. I ain’t buying it. Don’t try and confuse me with facts.” So say the ignorant who would rather stay in their blissful bubble of ignorance.

Well, like they say, “You can lead a thirsty idiot to water, but he/she will most likely not drink.” They might have to admit they were wrong, and that type of thinking simply expresses their personal motto: “I may not

always be right, but I’m never wrong.”

The governments know about this global warming, but they also know there is no way to stop it. So, they come up with things to distract and misdirect us from the inevitable.

Whether you buy it or not, the facts will present themselves in time, and no matter what you would like to believe, the facts cannot be changed.

Why are we listening to our supposed leaders when they themselves call each other liars, sex criminals and treasonous? They are even going back through each other’s history to dig up new mud to sling at each other. He was accused of sex crimes in kindergarten, she cheated on a test in fourth grade.

What is wrong with this picture and these people? Why are we listening to these people instead of our scientists?

Don’t we have a choice? Yes, we do, but the ignorant won’t buy it, so once again, truth and knowledge are stymied by the “I may not always be right, but I’m never wrong” people.

We are so brainwashed that it will be difficult for us to come together as human beings again, thanks to our egotistical, egoistic world leaders. They know that keeping us at each other’s throats ought to keep us busy, so they can go about their business (self-indulgence, bull, sex crimes, more personal power, etc.) as usual and keep us in the dark for their benefit, not ours. The governments/leaders of the world are very worried that they will lose control of the world population. This is the reason we can’t trust 98 percent of what they tell us.

When I was in the military, it gave me a chance to sit down with many ethnic groups from around the world.

And believe me when I say most all of the people – except the psychotic radicals – want peace for themselves and their families. This may be a little off the subject, but I sure did enjoy the multitude of different foods from the different cultures. They spoke different languages, but they all had the same question: “Do you think there will ever be peace among the people of Earth again?” The only thing I could come up with was, “I guess we won’t until we can learn to live without our government and start living and enjoying each other again.” Our differences are what make our lives exciting and enjoyable. I cannot tell you how many different cultural celebrations I have been to and enjoyed because they were beautiful and expressed the feeling of the people. Variety is definitely a spice of life.

Conclusion: We have a choice to make. We can unite again as human beings or continue to live under these circumstances. I don’t know how we can accomplish this, so if any of you have the answer, please don’t hesitate to express it and send it in to be published.

No answer is stupid, and it might help to save some of us. The ignorant need not apply; they wouldn’t buy it anyhow.

White males too often are being painted with the same brush

By DAVID LIEBOWITZ

Decades back, I took a class on logic. This was the early 1980s, so excuse me if the details are foggy – just protecting my possible appointment to the U.S. Supreme Court – but I remember logic class as a slog because it involved reading the old Greeks and memorizing Latin phrases like ad hominem.

One particular afternoon still stands out.

The professor, who I remember as Some Guy With A Bushy Beard, spent a fun hour driving home the association fallacy and its cousin, guilt by association, with an exercise that induced fits of laughter – which is clearly illegal on college campuses today.

The assignment: Come up with every possible stereotype about the people around us. This had my classmates and I shouting out lines like “All blondes are dumb” and “All black men are criminals” and “All Asians get A’s in calculus.”

In 2018, Professor Bushy Beard would have been fired and vilified on CNN for that curriculum. But his class drove home the point and it has re-

Maybe it’s our turn and we should simply shut up and take it. Maybe white male privilege is an affliction like certain cancers, free of symptoms, a disease so subtle you don’t even know you have it until it’s too late.

Maybe all those years of hard work and struggle have been simple self-delusion. Maybe the only thing white guys like Steve Jobs or Warren Buffett or John McCain ever had going for them was their whiteness and maleness.

Sure. And every black male has seven kids by nine different women. And every Jew will screw you for three cents. And every immigrant from New Delhi owns a convenience store. And blah, blah, blah.

Restoring trust in the Arizona Corporation Commission

By Rodney Glassman

As an Eagle Scout, husband, father and attorney, holding my PhD in arid land resources science (water) and serving as a major in the U.S. Air Force JAG Corps Reserve, I am deeply concerned about the future of Arizona.

That’s why I am running for the Corporation Commission.

The commission was created as our fourth branch of government to regulate the monopolies that provide our most important public services. Sadly, the commission has strayed far from its mission. It is time for new blood.

I will apply the Air Force core values of Integrity First, Service Before Self, and Excellence in All We Do to the work of the commission and restore integrity, save ratepayers money, improve customer service, and provide certainty and stability for businesses and investors.

Supervisors ensuring a smooth election

By Clint Hickman

Your vote is sacred and, in the recent primary election, too many of you ran into issues that delayed or discouraged you from exercising your constitutional right.

In Maricopa County, the Recorder’s Office is responsible for planning and running elections. Its funding is approved by the board of supervisors. Everyone, including the recorder, agrees that what happened on August 28 was not an issue of dollars and cents.

I believe the recorder and his staff learned important lessons from the primary election. As we speak, there is a lot of hard work being done in that office to prepare for the general election. I want to share with you what the

Over 300,000 satisfied MDHearingAid customers agree: High-quality, FDAregistered hearing aids don’t have to cost a fortune. The fact is, you don’t need to spend thousands for a hearing aid.

Can a Hearing Aid Delay or Prevent Alzheimer’s and Dementia?

Business Briefcase

By Connor Dziawura

Hello, readers! It looks like this week should be a good one, as I have several developments in Buckeye, the first of which should create quite a few new jobs. But beyond the large-scale news items, local, family-owned shops and other small businesses are booming, too. Among those is a recently rebranded hardware store in Buckeye, a new realty office in Litchfield Park, and a bakery coming to Goodyear. And that’s just a start. Keep on reading for more briefs and details. Here’s the news!

First, APS plans to develop a substation and service center on an 83-acre parcel at SR-85 and MC-85, according to a statement the utility provider offered to the West Valley View. Plans and timelines have yet to be determined.

The number of employees that will be hired has not yet been estimated. The company hopes to have more information by the year’s end, according to the statement.

Then, Williams-based aircraft maintenance, avionics and aircraft management company Performance Air Group expanded to Buckeye Airport, 3000 S. Palo Verde Road, in September. The company received its first turbine-powered customer, Southwest Specialty Foods King Air 90, at the tail end of the month. Though it is open, more plans are in store, including Jet A fuel service, a pilot lounge, a flight school, helicopter maintenance and aircraft sales.

“Buckeye is the perfect place for our business,” said Valerie Thomas, who co-owns the company with her husband Chad. “We feel with the amount of growth Buckeye and the West Valley are currently experiencing, the Buck-

eye Airport will provide us with the opportunity to become a full-service fixed-based operator.”

For more information on the company, visit performanceairgroup.com.

The shop, which has been in Buckeye for 12 years, is located at 1511 E. MC85. Its owners celebrated their grand reopening Friday, October 5. Among those in attendance was Buckeye Mayor Jackie Meck. For more information, visit acehardware.com or facebook. com/buckeyeshometownacehardware.

Castle Rock Homes to build Lego house in one day

By Adrian Marsh

After retiring from the Air Force, Rod Fetters and his brother, Gary, decided they wanted to fulfill their dreams of building custom homes.

But not just any homes.

In 2004, they established Castle Rock Homes, which specializes in the use of insulated concrete forms (ICF) as building blocks for more energy-efficient and sustainable houses.

“One thing their military background brings to the table is attention to detail and security,” said Vicki Connell, office manager for the Litchfield Parkbased business.

ICF consists of 4-foot-wide by 16-inch-tall building blocks that are stronger and quieter than wood and have an energy efficiency rate of R-40, Connell said. Wood homes have an energy efficiency rate of R-19. The greater the R value, the greater the resistance to heat flow.

This month, at a date to be determined, Castle Rock Homes will take custom home building to a new level in hopes of benefiting the Arizona Special Olympics – Palo Verde with a fun,

engaging project.

They will attempt to build the structure of a home in one day using ICF blocks that will be painted in various colors to look like Lego. The “Lego home” will be built in Litchfield Park and is the first time they have done something of this nature.

“We are excited about the Lego-like project,” Rod said. “Everyone loves Lego, kids and adults, and most everyone loves seeing things being built.”

The project will be videotaped and put on their YouTube channel, and all the earnings from the video will be donated to the Special Olympics.

ICF homes take around six to seven months to build from groundbreaking to finish, according to Gary, and Castle Rock Homes has accomplished building up to eight homes per year.

Rod said they built three custom homes their first year.

Once finished, the home’s price will be about $700,000, Gary said. He added pricing depends on size and location, but ICF homes typically cost 5 to 7 percent more than wood homes due to their sustainability.

Vote ‘no’ on clean-energy initiative

By John Safin President and CEO Southwest Valley Chamber of Commerce

This is to bring attention to a serious issue facing everyone. A California-based political group wants to propose a ballot measure that would be harmful to Arizona households and businesses. The Southwest Valley Chamber of Commerce opposes this so-called “clean energy” initiative.

Please vote no on Proposition 127.

This California group wants to make changes to the Arizona Constitution that would require Arizona Public Service (APS) to produce at least half of electricity from renewable sources by 2030.

While it sounds good, this will significantly increase electricity costs for every family, business and ratepayer.

Additionally, their proposed ballot initiative would prohibit the use of nuclear energy as a renewable source. The Palo Verde Generating Station, the most cost-effective, renewable electrical production source for Arizona and several surrounding states, would be forced to close by 2025. This would have a detrimental impact to our economy through

a 50 percent increase in electrical costs, and loss of thousands of jobs.

The Southwest Valley Chamber of Commerce supports clean, renewable John Safin, energy that would president and CEO be beneficial to of the Southwest Valley Chamber of businesses and the Commerce. (Photo community.

This courtesy Southwest Valley Chamber) proposed ballot measure would do too much harm to the Southwest Valley community and the entire state of Arizona.

The mission of the Southwest Valley Chamber of Commerce is to support business leaders, advance economic growth, and be community-minded for the benefit of regional prosperity. We ask everyone to join us in voting “no” on Prop 127, the “Clean Energy for a Healthy Arizona” measure.

Southwest Valley Chamber of Commerce 289 N. Litchfield Road, Goodyear 623-932-2260

Concrete homes have been standing for more than 250 years in other countries, Rod added. In comparison, he said a traditional American wood-built home usually stands up to 80 years.

Rod said his favorite part of the job is turning the keys over to a customer and seeing the excitement of him or her moving into the new home and beginning a new chapter of life.

“Castle Rock Homes projects steady growth in the West Valley in the years to come,” he said. “And a major goal of our team is Castle Rock Homes is run by co-owner Gary Fetters, left, project Jim Ritchheart and co-owner Rod Fetters.

Hatfield named head coach of Verrado baseball

By Griffin Fabits

Verrado High School has named Darrell Hatfield the head coach of its varsity baseball program.

The hiring of Hatfield, who served as the Vipers’ pitching coach last spring, was recently announced after last year’s skipper, Mike Ward, stepped down after one season.

After a tumultuous spring in which Verrado had its most successful season, Ward resigned on August 14 to focus on his family.

Heading into his inaugural season as the Vipers’ manager, Hatfield is eager to give the program a new look. He accepted the position “because of the boys,” he said.

“I was with them all last year; we went through a lot,” Hatfield said. “I grew quite close with them. I wanted to make them feel more at home and comfortable with the program. Seeing my face every day would make that probably a little easier than someone coming in and really having to prove themselves and all that all over again.”

Though the Vipers graduated 11 seniors and lost sophomore standout

Colten Keith to a transfer, Hatfield is excited about the youth of his program.

Several players are returning.

“On the mound, it’d be Rocky King, Noah Olson and Cameron Hood. Especially those three, I’ve seen good things from them last summer and through the spring season of last year so that excites me a lot.”

Pitching will certainly be a strength this spring, but the Vipers are also for-

tunate to return junior Tanner Spallina, back for his second season of catching duties at the varsity level.

“We know the success the pitching staff had last season. We’re hoping to carry that success he had with the pitchers to all of our levels with him as our coach,” Spallina said.

During seven games between April 12 to April 30, the Vipers’ pitching staff yielded just eight earned runs, a

testament to the success the pitchers enjoyed under Hatfield last spring.

Prior to joining the Verrado coaching staff one year ago, Hatfield served as a coach at Youngker High School for eight years, where he ran weight-training programs in the summer and fall.

He then transferred to Millennium High School, where he spearheaded the Tigers’ summer baseball program. Before coaching, he played collegiate baseball at Spoon River College in Canton, Illinois.

The Verrado job is his first as a head coach. Hatfield is eager to put his own spin on a program that’s grown accustomed to winning seasons. To be doing so with this group of guys, he stressed, makes it that much better.

“They were excited to see me,” he said when he told the Vipers in an after-school meeting he was the new coach.

“They were pretty happy. It made me feel good because they were like, ‘We’re glad you got it.’ I feel they were 100 percent.”

Hatfield and the Vipers opened their fall-ball season on October 2 with workouts consisting of light throwing, ground balls and batting practice.

Verrado swimmer to attend camp at Olympic Training Center

By Griffin Fabits

The repeated vibration of the cellphone in his pocket forced Jadan Nabor to take a quick peek to see who was trying to get in touch with him during school.

It was his mother.

Despite the rules forbidding the use of a cellphone in the classroom, the Verrado High School junior peeked.

“Read Darian’s e-mail,” Jacki Nabor texted her son, referring to a note sent from Nabor’s club swimming coach Darian Townsend.

Nabor did, and the message inside threw him for a loop. “‘You have been chosen for the National Select Camp.’”

Happy, confused and unsure of what to think next, Nabor did his best to process his nomination to the National Select Camp at the USA National Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs at the end of October.

So, he did what anyone may have done in that scenario: He wore an earto-ear smile for the remainder of the school year.

“I felt like people were looking at me weird,” he laughed. “It was really cool.”

Though the selection caught Nabor off guard, it certainly wasn’t pulled out of thin air. In the past year, the 16-yearold has emerged as one of the country’s top swimmers. From September 1, 2017, to August 31 of this year, he was among the nation’s top three swimmers in his age group for the 200-meter individual medley. Last fall, as a sophomore at Verrado, Nabor won the state title in the 100-meter butterfly race.

“His mindset and eagerness to get better has grown since we started high school swim,” said senior teammate Paloma Marolf. “He works really hard at practice and it really shows.”

It’s that work ethic that led to his acceptance at the elite training camp comprised of 96 high school swimmers.

The athletes are allowed to bring their coaches. Nabor will spend several days at the Olympic Training Center where he’ll meet with professionals around the industry, discussing psychological training skills and race strategy. Coaches will be instructed of biomechanical tools or video analysis, on top of other things, to improve their swimmers’ skills.

“Jadan definitely has a talent for swimming, but it is Jadan’s attention to detail and drive that has given him so much success and that he is now to the point where he is one of the best

Verrado High School junior Jadan Nabor was among the nation’s top three swimmers in his age group for the 200-meter individual medley from September 1, 2017, to August 31, 2018.

swimmers for his age in the country,” Townsend said.

Nabor makes his intentions clear.

He’s well spoken, subscribing to the philosophy that his successes are just for him to enjoy.

“One of my biggest things, and my mom sort of hates it, is I don’t like to brag about my successes I achieve as a person,” he said. “If I tell someone, I feel like, in a way, I’m bragging.

“My mom actually hacked my Instagram and posted a picture of me and was like, ‘Made the National Select Camp!’” he added with a laugh.

He was quick to answer questions about his upcoming stay at the Olympic Training Center. But he’s not pleased about Verrado’s swim culture.

“We never get recognized for the things we do or the hard work we put in and that’s one of my biggest frustrations with the sport and the overall culture that we live in,” he said.

“Swim and dive at Verrado is the most successful sport, but no one will ever know that. We don’t get any recognition for anything. I won state last year but there was nothing about it, no congratulations for anyone.”

To change that, in typical Nabor-fashion, he’s elected to put his head down and go to work. He’s eyeing the state records this year in both the 100-meter backstroke and the 200-meter IM, which he’s just seconds away from breaking in both.

“I’m really, really close,” he said.

Perhaps that’ll bring the much-deserved attention to the team.

Nabor’s a five-year swimming veteran. He’s competed on a club team since he was 11 years old, now with

the YMCA Westside Silver Fins. He credits his parents – his father, a former state champion wrestler, and his mother, a college softball player – for getting him involved in sports.

He was a baseball player before fully committing himself to early mornings and late nights at the pool. But the team sport nature of baseball just didn’t cut it. Nabor craved that one-on-one competition.

“I was tired on having to rely on other people to compete,” he said. “At that point, I realized, if I want to be competitive, if I want to compete at elite levels, I want to rely on myself.

“Swimming is next level because you don’t have other people to rely on.

When it comes down to it, you’re the only one that’s going to be succeeding.

You learn from your fails and that’s one of the best things I love about it.”

On top of the state records, Nabor hopes to receive a scholarship to swim in college. He’s already spoken to several schools, he said. But after that, his

future with the sport is up in the air. He doesn’t have these grand plans after that, another testament to his character.

It’s easy to achieve as much as Nabor has in the past year and get lost into thinking he’s the next Michael Phelps.

But again, he tends to shy away from that mindset.

“It’s not something I want to pursue after college,” Nabor said of working to qualify for the Olympics.

“I’m not saying I won’t work up to it, but if I do somehow make it to the Olympics, I’m not going to complain, obviously. If I don’t manage to get it by the time I’m a senior in college, I don’t plan to pursue it afterward. It’s not something I see myself doing in the future. I want to start a life and do adult things after college.”

By his standards, that was more than enough swim-talk for one night. Enough talking about his achievements and personal scores, college plans or a ho-hum approach to the Olympics. Swim will be put on hold for the night, and it’ll greet him early the next morning.

Until then, who knows if it will even work its way into his thoughts?

That’s just who Jadan Nabor is.

La Joya football making a surprising run toward playoffs

By Eric Newman

La Joya Community High School football is sitting in a relatively unfamiliar spot: a winning record. The Fighting Lobos are in position to earn the school’s first playoff berth in a decade.

The Lobos recorded losing records the past three seasons, and have not made the AIA playoffs since 2008.

With a new set of contributors to the varsity level in 2018 – including JV call-ups and a few transfers – La Joya’s coaches, including offensive coordinator Jon Fontes, said the team was not sure what it would look like. Near the beginning of summer training, the passing offense and overall defense stood out.

The Lobos played a grueling 22game passing league season, but went 18-4 behind junior quarterback Miguel Valdovinos and a slew of quality, fast senior receivers. That success gave them the hope they could have their first winning season in some time.

“It’s transferred over because our passing game has been a big strength

Fontes added, “Things seemed to

click then. The attitude is completely different, and there is so much confidence going around the roster.”

That confidence shows in the team’s attitude. The two losses, to state powers Chaparral and Basha, might have caused rifts between players in years past. This season, even the blowouts are just learning experiences.

“We’re all a lot more serious now, because we realize what we have to do, and we’re learning from every game,” he said.

Players describe significantly less bickering than years past and a collective work ethic nobody was expecting.

In the first days of rainy October, Fontes said the players simply refused to stop practicing. They want to make sure this chance to shine does not go to waste.

“They just wanted to keep going. We were trying to cut practice down, and they just wouldn’t get off the field. You don’t always see that,” he said.

The Lobos are buoyed by several athletes who play offense and defense – a rare quality for a school of La Joya’s size.

Senior Isaiah Kellum, the team’s leader in receiving yards and total tackles through six games, said the players who do not specialize in one position are in incredible shape and are forced to know even more about both spots.

“It definitely helps with conditioning and the techniques of both sides. When I’m at defensive back, I think about what I’m trying to do there, and I use that as a receiver. I think a lot of the other guys who play both sides do that, too,” he said.

La Joya feels like it has room to grow before even thinking about the playoffs, though. They still face quality area rivals Westview and Tolleson Union back to back to end the year.

However La Joya finishes 2018 – either reaching postseason play or not – it is likely to be the most successful season in many years. Fontes said he hopes to keep the momentum rolling for years to come.

“We knew that we have to capitalize on this season so that we can build up for the future. We’ve had a few down seasons where we lost a lot of games, so now if we can keep this going it will be good for us moving forward,” he said.

Hemp Oil is Legal Across the Nation New industrial hemp oil extract brings soothing relief to millions of Americans; no prescription necessary.

M. A. Boswell Health News Syndicate

appetite, sleep, and more. It helps promote a boosted immune system.

HNS – For many long time sufferers, their prayers may have finally been answered.

Unlike other cannabinoids, the oil extracted from hemp provides consumers with the benefits of hemp oil without the risk of getting high.

Now legal, SuperClinical Hemp Oil is helping soothe symptoms of joint pain, foot and leg discomfort, soreness, achiness and muscle discomfort – bringing relief to millions.

Research shows that SuperClinical Hemp Oil works by targeting receptor sites in your system with a therapeutic effect that brings welcome relief to your entire body And because it’s non-psychoactive it cannot get you high, so no prescription is necessary.

START FEELING BETTER IMMEDIATELY Hemp oil is an extract made from hemp, a commonly used term for strains of the cannabis sativa plant without psychoactive effects.

Clinical studies found hemp oil can provide relief from a wide variety of symptoms - soothing discomfort, and healthy living, improving mood and much more.

Thanks to new legislation, known as the “Farm Bill,” hemp oil is now approved for use and has led to the creation of SuperClinical Hemp Oil. SuperClinical Hemp Oil uses high-potency, lab tested, pharmaceutical-grade hemp oil made from organic hemp cultivated in the USA using Supercritical Co2 Extraction.

Resulting in the highest possible purity, without a psychoactive high, that is legal across the nation and does not require a prescription.

And SuperClinical Hemp Oil’s fast-acting tincture means you can start to feel a difference immediately, making it superior in every way.

WHAT IS HEMP OIL? Hemp oil contains the non-psychoactive form of compounds called cannabinoids found in specific types of cannabis, and provides a variety of very important medicinal benefits.

Hemp Oil helps soothe symptoms associated with: • Joint pain • Foot and Leg discomfort • Soreness • Achiness • Muscle discomfort Plus, Hemp Oil has been shown to help improve mood,

Since hemp oil has no psychoactive effect, it is an excellent option for people seeking relief without risking impairment or experiencing the stigma of seeking a prescription.

And the hemp oil that’s found in SuperClinical Hemp Oil is quickly becoming the focus of widespread medical and scientific research.

According to many researchers, hemp oil may contain the single most important cannabinoid ever discovered and possesses great potential when it comes to relief without the psychoactivity experienced with marijuana.

HOW IT WORKS Your body is designed to thrive off cannabinoids.

In fact, there are areas of your body that are made specifically to interact with cannabinoids. They are called cannabinoid receptor sites.

This vast network of receptor sites makes up your body’s endocannabinoid system and are found in the brain and various other organs throughout the body.

The cannabinoids found in SuperClinical Hemp Oil work as an agonist and bind to these receptor sites creating a virtual balancing act where many beneficial effects are produced, providing much needed relief and improving mood, appetite, sleep, and more.

SuperClinical Hemp Oil uses high-potency, full spectrum, pharmaceutical-grade hemp oil made from organic hemp cultivated in the USA. And SuperClinical Hemp Oil’s fast-acting tincture makes it superior in every way.

LEGAL ACROSS THE NATION SuperClinical Hemp Oil cannot get you high and is legal across the country.

MILLIONS FIND RELIEF: Discover the remarkable power of SuperClinical Hemp Oil, legal across the country, cannot get you high, no prescription necessary.

“It’s really changed my life. Now I’m able to accomplish a lot of the things that I haven’t been able to do in the last few years. I feel amazing!”

And Patti, 50’s, says “For as many years as I can remember, I’ve had social anxiety in large crowds. I decided to try SuperClinical Hemp Oil, and I have to tell you that it has helped calm my mind so I can relax and enjoy myself… I’m much happier!

Terror in Tolleson carries on family tradition

By Christina Fuoco-Karasinski

Isaac Pacheco remembers the days when his father took the family to Universal Studios in California for its Halloween festivities.

The Tolleson resident thought when he was older, he would try his hand at fear. This year it’s dubbed Terror in Tolleson, a haunted experience running 7 to 11 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays through October 31 at 8609 W. Preston Lane. There is a $10 suggested donation or a $40 pass for up to five people. A portion of the money goes to AZHype, a dance troupe.

“There are 18 different scare zones,” said Pacheco, who’s hosting his fifth haunted house. “We have an oversized garage, which is the entryway, and then it goes into the backyard.

“Everybody’s excited for what we’re doing. It’s budget friendly for those who can’t afford to go to big parks. Every year we change it up with mazes or themes.”

planning their haunted house in August by recruiting ideas and volunteers.

“We’ve always been into the community,” Pacheco said. “I’ve been involved with Pop Warner. We’ve always done fun houses for the football teams.

That’s where it started.

“People like it when you can scare them. We let our evil side out and I feel better all year,” he added with a laugh. “We hear a lot, ‘You’re kind-hearted, genuine people. How can you come up with this type of stuff?’”

Lyft, Banner pair for mammogram program

By Christina Fuoco-Karasinski

Amanda Jones’ rescue dog, Cassie, is protective of her. So, when Cassie repeatedly pawed at Jones’ chest, she knew something was up.

“She would not stop digging,” the Goodyear resident recalled. “She was cupping me and digging at my right breast. I told my husband, ‘What is up with this chick? What is she doing?’”

A few days later, in April 2017, Jones felt a lump. A mammogram and two ultrasounds later, she was diagnosed with cancer, the same disease that afflicted her paternal grandfather. Jones doesn’t see it as a negative.

“I feel like I had a yellow brick road put in front of me,” she said. “It feels like somebody’s putting me in the direction I need to go.”

Forced to quit her regular day job, Jones started working with Lyft a few months ago. This month, Lyft is teaming up with Banner to provide free rides to mammograms for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Patients make an appointment with Banner and then

download the Lyft app and promotion code. For more information, visit bannerhealth.com/MammogramRides.

“We’re excited about the partnership,” said Joan Thiel, Banner’s vice president of ambulatory services. “We had been talking with them for quite some time about the lack of transportation for patients and how it is a barrier for receiving care.

“We formed a partnership in several markets to provide discharge patients for a ride home, but what a great opportunity to provide transportation for women who need a mammogram.”

It’s Jones’ goal to help women.

“When I was going through chemotherapy, there were so many incredible people and agencies who helped me,” she said.

“I remember at the (Cardinals’ October) football game, I cried on my husband’s sleeve. At first, I didn’t want to wear pink, but then I was so darn proud to wear pink because of my family. I’m so proud of it.

Jones and her husband, Brian, moved to the Valley in March 2010 and married the following September.

“We just literally came out here and started our lives over, together, and everything has been great,” she said. “We’re so thrilled to be part of the community.”

Jones hadn’t heard of Lyft before randomly finding a mention on the computer. She was confident that through Lyft she could financially contribute to her family. She works the rides around her medical appointments. Diagnosed with breast cancer at age 37, Jones said Lyft also lifts her spirits.

“I belly laugh all the time,” she said. “These people are so awesome.

I get discouraged sometimes, but I’ve learned to just get out of the house.

It’s amazing how awesome society is. I’m very blessed. Throughout this Rescue dog Cassie helped detect owner Amanda year and a half, blessings have literal- Jones’ breast cancer. (West Valley View photo by Pablo Robles) ly fallen from the sky.”

2018 Toyota 86 GT is a true sports car

By C.A. Haire

Toyota has a reputation for building reliable transportation cars, but for those who want something more exiting, they have this sharp-looking model 86 at the dealer. This is a true sports car, but at a reasonable price, and with very good fuel economy.

Under the hood is a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine cranking 205 horsepower. If ordered with a sixspeed automatic transmission, fuel economy is rated at 24/32 mpg. We got the six-speed manual, which was more fun to play with. Unfortunately, the listed fuel economy drops to 21/28 mpg.

The cabin is very simple, with sturdy materials and excellent workmanship. The climate controls are easy to operate, with only three knobs. The glove box has plenty of room once

the large owner’s manual is removed.

There are rear seats, making this a four-passenger vehicle. On the other hand, rear leg room is very limited, so only small kids or pets will be allowed.

With a light mass of about 2,800 pounds, even weight distribution, and quick steering, this is a true sports car, providing excellent cornering ability. That small engine provides enough acceleration if you work that manual gearbox hard. But the big surprise was our real-world fuel economy. We observed 25 mpg in mixed commuting, but cruising at 75 mph, we got an impressive 32 mpg. Premium gas is required, but since this motor is a fuel sipper, it won’t break your wallet.

With a base price of $26,225, the cost of ownership won’t break your wallet either. This car was an

Why Haven’t Senior Homeowners Been Told These Facts?

Keep reading if you own a home in the U.S. and were born before 1955.

It’s a well-known fact that for many senior citizens in the U.S. their home is their single biggest asset, often accounting for more than 50% of their total net worth.

Yet, according to new statistics from the mortgage industry, senior homeowners in the U.S. are now sitting on more than 6.1 trillion dollars of unused home equity.1 With people now living longer than ever before and home prices back up again, ignoring this “hidden wealth” may prove to be short sighted.

All things considered, it’s not surprising that more than a million homeowners have already used a government-insured Home Equity Conversion Mortgage or “HECM” loan to turn their home equity into extra cash for retirement.

However, today, there are still millions of eligible homeowners who could benefit from this FHA-insured loan but may simply not be aware of this “retirement secret.”

Some homeowners think HECM loans sound “too good to be true.” After all, you get the cash you need out of your home but you have no more monthly mortgage payments.

NO MONTHLY MORTGAGE PAYMENTS?2 EXTRA CASH? It’s a fact: no monthly mortgage payments are required with a government-insured HECM loan;2 however the homeowners are still responsible for paying for the maintenance of their home, property taxes, homeowner’s insurance and, if required, their HOA fees.

Another fact many are not aware of is that HECM reverse mortgages first took hold when President Reagan signed the FHA Reverse Mortgage Bill into law 29 years ago in order to help senior citizens remain in their homes.

Today, HECM loans are simply an effective way for homeowners 62 and older to get the extra cash they need to enjoy retirement.

Although today’s HECM loans have been improved to provide even greater financial protection for homeowners, there are still many misconceptions.

For example, a lot of people mistakenly believe the home must be paid off in full in order to qualify for a HECM loan, which is not the case.

In fact, one key advantage of a HECM is that the proceeds will first be used to pay off any existing liens on the property, which frees up cash flow, a huge blessing for seniors living on a fixed income.

Unfortunately, many senior homeowners who might be better off with HECM loan don’t even bother to get more information because of rumors they’ve heard.

That’s a shame because HECM loans are helping many senior homeowners live a better life.

In fact, a recent survey by American Advisors Group (AAG), the nation’s number one HECM lender, found that over 90% of their clients are satisfied with their loans.

While these special loans are not for everyone, they can be a real lifesaver for senior homeowners.

The cash from a HECM loan can be used for any purpose. Many people use the money to save

FACT: In 1988, President Reagan signed an FHA bill that put HECM loans into law.

on interest charges by paying off credit cards or other high-interest loans. Other common uses include making home improvements, paying off medical bills or helping other family members.

Some people simply need the extra cash for everyday expenses while others are now using it as a “safety net” for financial emergencies.

If you’re a homeowner age 62 or older, you owe it to yourself to learn more so that you can make an informed decision. Homeowners who are interested in learning more can request a free 2018 HECM loan Information Kit and free Educational DVD by calling American Advisors Group toll-free at 1-(800) 661-5375.

At no cost or obligation, the professionals at AAG can help you find out if you qualify and also answer common questions such as: 1. What’s the government’s role?

2. How much money might I get?

3. Who owns the home after I take out a HECM loan?

You may be pleasantly surprised by what you discover when you call AAG for more information today.

Source: http://reversemortgagedaily.com/2016/06/21/seniors-home-equity-grows-to-6-trillion-reverse-mortgage-opportunity. 2If you qualify and your loan is approved, a Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) must pay off any existing mortgage(s). With a HECM loan, no monthly mortgage payment is required. A HECM increases the principal mortgage loan amount and decreases home equity (it is a negative amortization loan).

AAG works with other lenders and nancial institutions that offer HECMs. To process your request for a loan, AAG may forward your contact information to such lenders for your consideration of HECM programs that they offer. When the loan is due and payable, some or all of the equity in the property no longer belongs to borrowers, who may need to sell the home or otherwise repay the loan with interest from other proceeds.

AAG charges an origination fee, mortgage insurance premium, closing costs and servicing fees (added to the balance of the loan). The balance of the loan grows over time and AAG charges interest on the balance.

Interest is not tax-deductible until the loan is partially or fully repaid. Borrowers are responsible for paying property taxes and homeowner’s insurance (which may be substantial).

Verrado teen set for Royal International Miss pageant

By Christina Fuoco-Karasinski

Alexis Miranda has poise and elegance that belies her 13 years.

She sits straight with her legs crossed and hands folded in front of her. The 13-year-old Verrado Middle School eighth grader is picture perfect.

On Saturday, October 13, Alexis, a state delegate finalist, will compete in the Royal International Miss Pageant at Desert Edge High School in Goodyear. Royal International Miss was created to help empower young women and give them opportunities to grow and develop a positive self-image, as well as cultivate their talents and public speaking abilities.

“I’m very excited,” Alexis said. “I enjoy having a good time with the other sister queens around me. All the people are so nice there. They’re so caring and they care about each other. I love that I always learn something when I do them, too.”

If she wins the crown, she has two goals. She will show, through social media, the great opportunity USA National Miss has given her. Second,

she will start her charitable platform: bringing awareness to Phoenix Children’s Hospital. She had a rare form of skin cell cancer at age 3.

“I should be crowned because I am passionate about the crown and all that it stands for, including: love, charity, hope, compassion and teamwork,” she wrote in a letter to the pageant. “I am social, outgoing, a role model to girls and involved in the community. I have ambition that allows me to use my God-given talents to shine my positive light on everyone around me.”

The daughter of Fred Jr. and Cynthia Miranda does so throughout the Valley.

She takes bagels and cream cheese to fire departments and is a teacher’s assistant for little ballerinas at Anderson Institute of Dance.

“They’re working on their Christmas dances and they’re so cute,” Alexis said. “I’ve been dancing for seven years. I always tell the girls they need to work hard in what they want to do because it’ll help when they’re older.”

Alexis is no stranger to taking the stage. She performed in the Snow Queen at the Herberger Theater. She

dances 14 hours a week and has piano lessons once a week. She’s learning “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” and “What Child is This?” on the piano for an upcoming concert. Her heart lies in “old jazz,” however.

“My dad would listen to it all the time when I was little,” she said. “I find it really soothing.”

At Verrado Middle School, the aspiring lawyer enjoys math.

“I just love numbers,” she said with a wide grin. “I think they’re intriguing. They make me so happy. I love solving problems and always knowing there’s an answer.”

Alexis is busy, but her mother stressed the importance of remaining a teen.

“I keep her busy,” Cynthia said.

“It’s better than playing games on A Verrado Middle School eighth grader, Alexis Miher phone. However, I still want randa wants to be a lawyer so she can give a voice those who do not have one, she said. (Photo by her to be 13.

Children’s Learning Adventure creates ‘little leaders’ in Goodyear

By Connor Dziawura

Angela Norman, director of Children’s Learning Adventure’s Goodyear center, likens the child care center to one of the most prestigious universities in the country.

“I like to refer to us as the Harvard of preschools,” said Norman, whose center holds a monthly open house that returns from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, October 13. “What we do here is we prepare early learners for their academic journey.”

Youngsters who attend Children’s Learning Adventure have a home room like in high school, Norman said, and then they rotate through specialty classrooms and subjects like art, music, cooking and theater.

“It’s proven that when children can acclimate to change it increases their IQ,” she added. “So essentially we’re starting that at the early learning stage.”

Because the center has infant, toddler, preschool, pre-kindergarten, advanced pre-kindergarten and kindergarten, and before- and after-school programs, Children’s Learning Adven-

interactive and hands-on is important, Norman emphasized.

Speaking as a mother of two, Amber Moody, the center’s customer service specialist, said the feeling you need to take your kids to extra activities after picking them up from day care dissipates with Children’s Learning Adventure.

“I think Children’s Learning Adventure takes away all of that because you know that they’re getting a hundred percent of what they need in their day just at child care,” she said, “So you don’t feel the extra mommy need to run them to soccer and things like that.”

She added, “I think as a mom, you always feel like your kid is quote unquote stuck in child care, and I don’t feel like your kids are stuck here.

They’re growing, they’re learning, they’re having fun, and it’s truly an adventure for them.”

Important to Children’s Learning Adventure is an emphasis on science, technology, engineering, arts and math (STEAM). Though Norman recognizes an increasing trend in STEAM fields across other schools, it’s not new to Children’s Learning Adventure.

“It’s something that we’ve always been based off of,” she explained.

“We actually have a board, I guess you could say, that created our curriculum for us, and it started with a STEAM base because those are all the areas that children need to be – I don’t want to say setting the bar – exceeding the

bar and that average in the classroom, because that’s how the mind thinks. So we want for well-rounded students.”

Tuition is determined on a case-bycase basis.

“It’s based off the family’s needs,” Norman explained. “I have children that attend two days all the way to five days, I have some that come Monday through Friday for like five hours or less, and then there’s some that come Monday through Friday for the entire day. Parents have the options to pay weekly or monthly. Again, it’s just what suits them best.”

Norman said Children’s Learning Adventure teaches its students to become “little leaders.”

“I know that what we’re doing here is what’s best because not only are we teaching them academics but we are teaching them how to behave properly in social settings and share or whatever.”

Children’s Learning Adventure open house 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

OBITUARIES Edward “Monte” Crisp

Patricia K. (Brabbin) Lind

Mary Louise David

Edward “Monte” Crisp passed away on September 27, 2018, surrounded by his family. Monte was born in 1949 in Scotia, California, the eldest son of Nellie “Toodie” Rose Finnegan and Wilburn Carl Crisp.

He spent his childhood in California, his teens and twenties in Colorado, then settled down to build his life in Phoenix.

He attended Western State Colorado University in Gunnison and graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration. He was a member of Delta Sigma Pi and dedicated his life to building small businesses.

After getting his start in the elevator industry, Monte purchased the small Phoenix-based company Arizona Air Compressor. In three decades at the helm, he and his partner Pat Warnock expanded to multiple locations and entities, while also starting a vacation rental company in Rocky Point, Mexico. Monte was proud to see his life’s work continue at Arizona Air Compressor when he handed over the keys earlier this year to trusted friends and employees.

Monte was an avid outdoorsman. His hobbies were traveling, golfing, boating, fishing, hunting and anything else that involved a sleeping bag and a good story. He loved nothing more than sharing laughs with family and friends. He was an epic joke teller who often laughed while repeating the punchline.

He was preceded in death by his beloved parents Wilburn and Nellie, along with his long-time business partner and friend Pat Warnock.

He is survived by his daughters Erin Fries and Chelsey Crisp; grandchildren Marlee, Avery, Grayson; and grandson on the way; brother Stephen Crisp; sister Lynda (Crisp) Ramage; sons-in-law Jeff Fries and Rhett Reese; sister-in-law Tracey Crisp; and brother-in-law Jeff Ramage. As a mentor to many in the Crisp and Finnegan families, he leaves his legacy behind in dozens of cousins, aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews.

A Celebration of Life will be held overlooking the golf course at Red’s in Litchfield Park at 1pm on October 21st. (451 N. Old Litchfield Road, Litchfield Park, AZ 85340). In honor of Monte, Hawaiian shirt attire and great stories are encouraged.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be sent to the Wounded Warriors Project. Visit www.hccfh.org for online condolences. A memorial service will take place next spring in Norwood, Colorado.

Patricia K. (Brabbin) Lind passed away on Friday, June 22, 2018, in Vista, California, surrounded by family after a valiant fight against cancer.

Born to Evelyn and Pat Brabbin on December 16, 1939, Patricia (or Patsy as she was known to many) grew up in Buckeye. After high school, she studied at Hardin-Simmons University in Texas before returning back home where she would marry Delbert Beyer and have three children, Marcy, Scott and Michelle. After attending beauty school, Patricia proudly opened her own hair salon in Buckeye.

In 1973, Patricia moved to California, eventually settling in Chula Vista where she would raise her children. Patricia had a vibrant personality, a penchant for entertaining and a door that was always open to family and friends. She also loved to travel, including memorable trips to Hawaii, Japan, Spain and Alaska.

Patricia pursued several careers in retail and owned two businesses, a costume shop and an upscale dress shop, in San Diego.

Patricia moved to Encinitas, California in 1999 to be near her son and his family. Her daughters later moved to the North County, happily bringing the family together in one place. It was in Encinitas that Patricia found what she called her dream job, a Receptionist at Coldwell Banker, where she made many friends doing what she did best - making people smile. Patricia cherished her six grandchildren and spent most of her spare time showering them with love and attention, which they joyously returned in kind.

Patricia is survived by her children, Scott Beyer (Mary), Marcy Beyer (Jim) and Michelle Herrera (Robert); her sister, Phyllis Hallman; her brother, Larry Brabbin; and her six grandchildren, Hanna Beyer, Hallie Beyer, Sam Beyer, Stella Herrera, Sascha Herrera and Silas Herrera.

A Funeral Service for Patricia will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Monday, October 29, 2018, at the First Southern Baptist Church of Buckeye, 405 North Third Street, Buckeye, Arizona. All are welcome to attend, and a reception will follow.

Mary Louise David, of Litchfield Park, died October 3, 2018 in Avondale. She was born September 11, 1927 in Provo, UT to William Nelson and Margaret Bird Grooms. Mary is survived by her daughter, Lisa Davis; brother Roger Grooms; five grandchildren; eight great-grandchildren; four step-grandchildren; and four step-great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her husband, Jim David; daughter Louisa; parents, William Nelson and Margaret Bird Grooms; and brother, Boyden Grooms.

A funeral service will be held at 1:00 pm, Monday, October 8, 2018 at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, 301 W. Wigwam Blvd, Litchfield Park, AZ 85340.

Betty Jane Nunez

Betty Jane Nunez, passed away unexpectedly on September 26, 2018. She was born the youngest of three daughters to Mary Francis and Frank Ybarra Galvan on May 30, 1954, in Tucson, AZ. Outgoing and kind, Betty could make friends in minutes. In her youth, she was very active in sports. She ran track and played volleyball and softball, always wanting to be on a team surrounded by her friends. She was a social butterfly, but always took time to listen and comfort others when they were troubled. She was fond of dancing and was a big fan of George Strait. Later in life, she liked an occasional visit to the casino.

Betty was a hard worker. Life was often difficult but she always found the strength to rise above her troubles. She knew how to make the best of what she had! She worked in the medical field where her com-passion was her greatest asset. As a mother she was selfless and caring, often sacrificing so that her chil-dren had what they needed. She was feisty and pro-tective of her children and worked hard to teach them good values. Though she could sometimes be stubborn about her ways, their well being was continuously on her mind. She always made time for her children and spent many hours talking with them. As her children grew their relationship with her grew from parent/child to buddies to best friends. Her opinions became the guideposts from which they navigated their lives.

Betty’s love for her children naturally extended to her grandchildren. She loved spending time with them and enjoyed attending their sporting events. The family that she cherished so much, honors her and will miss the best mother, and grandmother they could ever have! In the words of George Strait, “It's a love without end, amen!”

Betty is survived by her daughters, Yvonne Nevarez (Daniel), and Linda Nunez; sons, Alex Mendez (Rosanna) and Carlos Nunez (Leanna); father, Frank Galvan and his wife Carlota; sister, Stella Mae Soto (Manny); brothers, Frank Galvan, and Mark Galvan (Kim); nine grandchildren and one great-grandchild. She was preceded in death by her mother, Francis Young.
