NORTH VALLEY – This past weekend reached record temperatures, and with summer in full swing, residents are being warned to use caution during outdoor activities.

A woman was rescued from the Desert Vista Trailhead area in north Phoenix on Sunday after she became ill from the heat. The Phoenix Fire Department airlifted her to a local hospital; she passed away there. A hiker in the Superstition Mountains and two hikers in Pima County also passed away this weekend due to heat-related illness.

The National Weather Service reported that the high temp reached 118 degrees on Sunday, June 19, breaking the

record of 115 degrees, set in 1968. Extreme heat warnings have been issued due to the heat wave. Summer officially arrived last Monday, and no break in the heat is predicted currently.

The Phoenix Fire Department cautions that during periods of excessive heat, it’s best to remain indoors.

If you do need to be outside in the elements, the Phoenix Fire Department offers guidelines for heat safety:• Drink more water than usual.

Avoid drinks with sugar, alcohol and caffeine. Contact the Heat Relief Network as a resource.

Anthem Civic Building roofing project to start this week

ANTHEM – Construction on the Anthem Civic Building’s roof begins Thursday, June 23. The roofing project will continue through the middle of July.

The Civic Building, which was constructed in 1999, will be getting a complete roof replacement. In a Jan. 21 memo to the Anthem Community Council Board of Directors, ACC staff noted that the building’s roof suffered damage in the major storm on July 31, 2012.

“Since that historic rain and wind storm, the ACC has experienced roof leaks from periodic rains that have become increasingly damaging and disruptive to daily building operations. During the recent

week-long rain that began on January 4, 2016, the ACB experienced significant leaks that required immediate corrective action to prevent

further damages or interference

with the safe use of the building

CIVIC BUILDING continued on page 3

Pictured is the Anthem Civic Building. The building’s roof sustained damage in the ‘1,000 year storm’ in July 2012. The roof is now scheduled to be replaced.

NORTH VALLEY – The north valley has changed tremendously over the past several decades. What will the next decade bring to the Daisy Mountain area? Help set the stage for area development by taking a survey regarding future development in the north valley. Take the survey online at www.surveymonkey.com/r/newriverID.

Survey results will impact the Daisy Mountain Area Plan. This plan provides the Maricopa County Planning and Zoning Commission and the Board of Supervisors specific guidance for the future growth and development of the area, while correlating to the broader policies and goals of the County-wide Comprehensive Land Use Plan (Vision 2030).

This survey resembles a survey given to local residents last year. That one was done by the Daisy Mountain Area Plan Committee, which was

led by the New River/Desert Hills Community Association and included volunteer representatives from New River, Desert Hills, Anthem, and Tramonto and provided the committee with the inventory and analysis of the issues that mattered most to respondents. To see suggestions from last year’s survey, go online to www.nrdhca.org/images/Key_Points_for_Each_Element_rev_2016-5-31_FINAL.pdf.

With this survey, the County wants to hear directly from you. This survey is open-ended, meaning you can share your issues and concerns (up to 500 characters) about any or all elements that are important to you. When finished, simply click the ‘submit’ button at the bottom of the page and your answers will be forwarded directly to the County.

To take the survey, visit www.surveymonkey.com/r/newriverID.

by staff and guests,” the Jan. 21 memo stated.

Construction will performed by Lyons Roofing. According to a May 16 memo from staff to the Board, the Lyons’ proposal cost is “$111,076, plus $2,475 for optional leak.” The memo recommended that the Board fund the project as an unbudgeted operating expense with available cash on hand.

According to a release on the construction, once begun, the roof construction will start at approximately 6 a.m. and conclude by 4 p.m. daily, including weekends. The northeast section of the lot will be blocked off for a staging area, and certain areas of the parking lots will be blocked off during different phases.

ADEQ announces reduced vehicle emissions test fees

PHOENIX – Arizona Department of Environmental Quality officials have announced that motorists whose vehicles are registered in the Phoenix Metropolitan Area, including Maricopa County and portions of Pinal and Yavapai Counties, known as “Area A,” will save $3 per vehicle for emissions testing fees, effective July 1.

ADEQ estimates that these fee reductions, representing approximately 1.2 million tests, will save vehicle owners about $3.7 million annually. All “Area A” vehicle emissions inspection fees will be reduced by $3.

Beginning in 2014, ADEQ voluntarily lowered vehicle emissions inspection fees by more than 25 percent for more than one million tests in the Phoenix metropolitan area, which resulted in a savings to vehicle owners of about $8.2 million. ADEQ supports a stepwise approach to reducing vehicle emissions testing fees as a prudent approach to balancing fees with service costs. The approach ensures program resource needs are met and minimizes reversing fee

reductions at a later date.ADEQ also instituted a Gas

Cap Distribution Program in Maricopa and Pima counties, which provides vehicle owners with a new gas cap, free of charge, if their gas cap fails emissions inspection. This eliminates the need for the owner to leave, buy a new gas cap and return to retest, and immediately eliminates the release of gasoline vapors into the environment. If the testing station doesn’t have the gas cap size needed, motorists are offered a $5 prepaid card to help cover the cost of a new cap. Since its inception in 2014, ADEQ and its contractor have provided more than 91,000 gas caps and prepaid cards to Arizona motorists.

Phoenix City Council appoints District 3 Councilmember

PHOENIX – The Phoenix City Council has appointed Debra Stark to serve as the District 3 Councilmember until a special election is held. That special election will determine the councilmember to fill the remainder of the term, which runs through 2019.

The City Charter states that when a vacancy occurs with more than one year remaining in the term, the City Council must appoint an individual to fill the vacancy until a special election is held to fill the remainder of the term.

The Phoenix City Council voted on June 15 to adopt an ordinance to hold a special election on Nov. 8, 2016 to fill the District 3 Council seat for the remainder of the term. If during the special election no candidate receives a majority of the votes cast for the office, the City Charter requires a Runoff Election between the two candidates receiving the greatest number of votes in the November Election. The first

available date under state law for the Runoff Election would be March 14, 2017.

Arizona wins EPA’s Air Quality Flag Program Challenge

NORTH VALLEY – Arizona schools won the EPA’s Spring Air Quality Flag Program Challenge to protect people’s health. Schools state-wide are raising brightly colored flags to help students and members of the community be aware of daily air quality conditions. The colored flags correspond to the Air Quality Index to inform community members about air quality forecasts so they can take steps to protect their health.

The Spring Challenge aimed to increase the number of participating schools and organizations and raise awareness about the Air Quality Index colors and associated health messages. Each day, a flag is hoisted above schools, or other community sites, that participate. In the school setting, recess and physical education are sometimes held indoors on days with particularly poor air quality, especially for sensitive populations, like children with severe asthma. The program also contains an environmental education component with teacher lesson plans about air pollution, and the science behind air monitoring technology.

JUDY BLUHMIt wasn’t supposed to be like this.

America. The greatest country in the world. Land of the free, home of the brave. Place of the innocents who get gunned down at nightclubs, parties, bars, places of work, homes, schools, churches…well you get the picture. How many times will see the images of broken families, ravaged lives, horrific deaths and shocking tragedies play out in our communities?

Are you there, God? Oh right, I have asked that question before. Too many times. Sorry for my impertinence but we could use a little help down here! Lunatics, crazies, evil deranged folks are committing these mass murders! What are we to do? We hold vigils and send our prayers, love and money to the

victims and families, but we need some divine intervention! Politicians, priests, rabbis, ministers, police, FBI, and pundits cannot seem to fix this!

Oh, there are plenty to blame for the insanity that is becoming all too common. Some people point to the ease which very disturbed (and dangerous) people can obtain weapons. Psychologists claim our culture is becoming increasingly more angry and violent with revenge killings evidence of this phenomenon. Spiritual leaders say we have become a Godless society, which leads to a lawless society. Some experts say everyone should carry a weapon everywhere so good people can stop the bad guys. Others say less assault guns are the answer. I say we are a long way from solving anything.

Not only was the news coming from Orlando hard to read, but then nature seemed to be creating havoc last week. Another Yarnell fire. Only three years have passed since the last terrible fire and an entire town of folks who were just rebuilding and healing had to run for their lives. Not that we can ever forget

what happened on that day on June 30 when 19 firefighters died, but to have to relive the agony of an evacuation again is almost unimaginable.

Can mountains speak? If so, what stories would they tell about the dark scars that cover their masses. I drove through Peeples Valley and Yarnell and saw the blackened mountains on the east side of Highway 89, which came treacherously close to homes on the hillside. Maybe this is the miracle we seek, that no lives were lost and homes were saved. Our prayers at work?

Many religious leaders say that when it seems like the world is falling apart, seek to find comfort in the everyday miracles that surround us. The joy of watching two baby squirrels playing in the grass. Or the grace and love when an old blind mare is guided around the pasture by a younger horse. A grandbaby learning to take her first steps into the world that we know holds such promise. The humanity of a first responder who comforts a victim. The acts of kindness and grace that we see in our neighbors and friends.

My daughter was at Target when she saw a little girl about four years old telling her father how she wanted a bicycle. He told the little girl they didn’t have the money for a bike right now. Then, the

little girl reached into her tiny purse and got out a quarter and said, “Now we have the money, Daddy. I can buy it.” When the father said that wasn’t enough, the little girl replied smiling, “I can get a job next week. Don’t worry.” Overhearing the conversation, a couple engaged the young dad and he told them he just got back from a tour in Afghanistan and was still transitioning to civilian life. The couple thanked him for his service, bought his daughter the bike and told the little girl, “You won’t need to get a job for many, many years.” Maybe we can find God in all places.

Just when we think the world is a disaster, we can always seem to find the humanity that still makes us great and gives us hope for a brighter tomorrow. We collectively hold each other up, help the smallest of creatures, care for one another and when world events seem to be too much to bear, we carry on. One day at a time. One bike at a time.

PUBLIC NOTICE

JUDGE GERALD A. WILLIAMSNORTH VALLEY

JUSTICE OF THE PEACEShould a jury be allowed

to view video from a cell phone? What if that video was edited and there is a dispute concerning what happened before the recording started? On June 13, 2016, in a case called State v. Steinle, the Supreme Court of Arizona considered these questions in the context of a homicide case.

In that case, a witness to a fight made a video recording of it on his cell phone. He then cropped the first four and one half minutes from the video, sent the final thirty-one seconds of the video to a friend, and deleted the original video from his cell phone. The final thirty-one seconds of the video showed an individual,

allegedly the Defendant, stab the victim in the chest. The Defendant was subsequently indicted for murder.

The trial judge refused to admit the edited video as evidence. The prosecution appealed. The Court of Appeals agreed and held that the video clip could not be admitted because the entire video was not preserved and because it was unfairly prejudicial.

The Supreme Court of Arizona disagreed and reversed. The eight page unanimous opinion, written by Chief Justice Scott Bales, noted that unlike other cases in other courts that had considered similar issues, in this case, the prosecution had nothing to do with how the video was edited. Even so, the justices had some concerns.

The opinion stated that while the edited video clip could be highly probative, it “may also potentially be unfairly prejudicial or misleading.” Arizona Rule of Evidence 403 allows a trial judge to exclude even relevant evidence, “if its probative value is substantially outweighed by a danger of …

unfair prejudice, confusing the issues, [or] misleading the jury …”

The Supreme Court sent the case back to the trial judge because he is in the best position to determine how the evidence fits within the overall context of the case. The trial judge will now specifically focus on whether it is unfair to the Defendant to admit the edited video.

Arizona trial judges consider evidence from cells phones on a daily basis, whether it is something as simple as proof of car insurance or something potentially more complicated, like proof of harassment in a domestic violence case. As new uses for smart phones continue to emerge, attempts to offer or to seize evidence from them will continue. Efforts to do so could be considered progress, as long as they are done in a manner consistent with our federal and state constitutions, as well as the rules of evidence.

NORTH VALLEY – On June 10, Daisy Mountain Fire Department crew members were honored at the AEMS Conference with the Aces of Hearts Award. These fire responders were nominated for the award by Honor Health Deer Valley Hospital for the exemplary care they displayed on a challenging EMS call from last year.

The nominated firefighters responded to a call last year regarding a local mom who was having chest pains. These crew members recognized how serious her condition was and helped save her life. They also cared for and fed her one-month-old baby.

DMFD firefighters Kemp Quackenbush and Garrett Attig and

Captain Wade Barter, who were all on the call that day, were honored at the June 10 ceremony. Firefighter Eddie Coleman, Firefighter Dave Alexander, and Engineer Jason Mickelson were headed down to the event when they were dispatched on a call.

The Aces of Hearts Award is sponsored by Arizona Emergency Medical Systems, Inc. This award recognizes those who have provided outstanding contributions that enhance and improve emergency medical and trauma care.

“We Come to You!”

Office Visit by Appointment OnlyMONTE YAZZIE

MOVIE COLUMNISTWhen I was in the third

grade, I wandered away from my parents in a department store. Fearing they had left without me, I went into the parking lot to look for them. Panic and fear immediately set in as I roamed the parking lot looking for anything that looked recognizable. It was an early, authentic moment of fear that led to a significant moment of relief and love when my parents found me.

In “Finding Nemo”, Pixar’s beloved 2003 film, a young clown fish named Nemo was lost in an immense ocean and left to fend for himself. Conquering fears, becoming independent, making difficult decisions, being confident, and understanding the importance of family were all themes utilized in the original film. “Finding Dory”, a charming and heartfelt if somewhat familiar and repetitive tale, explores many of these same themes except from the perspective of the lovable and comical Dory, voiced by Ellen DeGeneres.

The film takes place about a year after the events of “Finding Nemo”. Dory is living with Marlin (Albert Brooks) and Nemo (Hayden Rolence) in the corals. Marlin is still a nervous wreck, Nemo is still adventurous, and Dory is still dealing with short-term-memory-loss. However, she begins to remember more about her past, specifically the family that she lost. This leads Dory across the ocean and into an aquarium in search of her parents with Marlin and Nemo in tow to find her and new friends Destiny (Kaitlin Olsen), a nearsighted shark, and Hank (Ed O’Neill), a grumpy octopus

looking to escape to Cleveland, along to assist.

From the first moments of the film, the directing team of Andrew Stanton and Angus MacLane get you reacquainted with the quirks and charms of the characters, while also offering some information about the past and how it has influenced Dory into the forgetful character we know. The setup becomes a little repetitious; Dory goes missing and an adventure to find her ensues. It’s basically the same execution from the original film, but it also happens rather quickly, getting the viewer into the location where a majority of the film takes place, an aquarium filled with an amusing array of environments and the recognizable voice of a famous actress.

This narrative shift was a welcome change; the inclusion of a new environment allows the film to build some

necessary momentum that keeps everything in the story exciting, even if the exciting parts sometime stray beyond the scientific marine biology realms. Also, the added animal characters, like a pair of sunbathing sea lions voiced by Idris Elba and Dominic West, but also an amazingly animated octopus named Hank voiced by Ed O’Neill, add some humorous moments and some sincere ones, as well. Hank plays a great counterpart to Dory; his cranky attitude is consistently undercut by his growing concern for Dory’s plight. The themes of family and the dynamic relationship seen within families are woven throughout the interaction of the characters in the film. It’s never forcefully implied that these themes are key factors in composing the foundation of the story, but you can easily recognize it. Probably the best of the themes found within the film comes in the composition of Dory and Nemo, two characters dealing with being different from everyone else yet still displaying powerful traits that make them unique. It’s the most obvious of the themes but it is done exceptionally well. This is a quality that many Pixar films excel at over other animation studios.

“Finding Dory” is good film to take the family to. Kids may get a little squirmy with the 100-minute running time, but there is more than enough excitement to attract their attention throughout the film. While it may not be as memorable as some of my favorite Pixar films, “Wall-E”, “Up”, and “Inside Out”, it is still a good sequel and will more than likely please fans of the original film.

SHEA STANFIELDARTS COLUMNIST

“Our land will last forever. It will not perish by the flames of fire, as long as the sun shines and the waters flow this land will be here to give life to the people and animals,” Crowfoot, Blackfeet. We only know landscapes of the Old West today through the paintings, sculptures, and stories of those who have come before. Hart Merriam Schultz, known as Lone Wolf, provides us the gift of hindsight in images and figures of a West that has passed through the dust of time into our dreams and imaginations.

Born in 1883, “near the close of buffalo days” on the Blackfeet Reservation of Montana, Lone Wolf was said to be one of the more colorful personalities of the Old West traversing both worlds of “white man’s” culture and his Native American roots. Lone Wolf was the son of James W. Schultz, a well-known author of the time, and Fine Shield Woman, a member of the Blackfeet tribe. Lone Wolf, as a young boy, began capturing his environment and experiences by sketching on buckskin and sculpting with his grandfather, who taught him to mold riverbank clay into animals. Lone Wolf was also educated in Indian schools, where he

continued to draw, paint, and sculpt. As a teen, he worked on his mother’s ranch as a wrangler, where he would entertain the other cowboys with his sketches of their daily life and activities.

In 1903, at age 20, Lone Wolf left the reservation after the death of his mother to live with his father on the West Coast. During this time, he completed his first set of watercolor on Indian subjects. He also began traveling to Arizona and New Mexico for the winters to expand his experience and inspiration for his art. In 1909, while working the Grand Canyon as a wrangler and a guide, Lone Wolf met Thomas Moran, which proved to be a turning point in the young artist’s career. Moran agreed to give Lone Wolf painting lessons and encouraged him to become a professional artist. Following his mentor’s advice, Lone Wolf returned to Los Angeles in 1910 to begin his formal art training at the Los Angeles Art Students League, which led him to Chicago to study at the Art Institute in 1914-1915. During these years, Lone Wolf also illustrated his father’s books, gaining notoriety for his illustration and commercial art skills, in addition to fine art painting and sculpting of western scenes.

Lone Wolf had his first one-man show in Los Angeles in 1917. His work drew notice across the country. His client list included the names of President Theodore Roosevelt,

Buffalo Bill Cody, Charles Russell, Mrs. Calvin Coolidge, President Herbert Hoover, and the Santa Fe Railroad as they expanded across the West. He enjoyed the support of noted artists of the time in Thomas Moran, Charles Russell, and Frederic Remington. Lone Wolf often joined his father, in the summers, on hunting trips at their cabin, Butterfly Lodge, in Greer, Arizona. His father would eventually gift the Butterfly Lodge to Lone Wolf and his wife Naomah where they set up a winter/spring studio. During the summers, he and Naomah would travel to St. Mary’s Lake at Glacier National Park, where years earlier his father had worked as a trapper

and outfitter, now Lone Wolf

would work in his studio

set up in a tepee.

Lone Wolf would eventually

establish residence at his winter

studio La Osa Ranch in Tucson,

Arizona. He often participated

in the opening of Tucson’s

annual rodeo parade “La Fiesta

de los Vaqueros” suited out in

the beaded chieftains handed

down to him from his Blackfeet

ancestors. Hart M. Schultz

passed away in Tucson in 1970;

his ashes are buried in Montana

in the grave of his Blackfeet

uncle, Last Rider.

Lone Wolf left over 500 pieces of art documenting a time in the American West that is now part of our collective memory and history. Scottsdale’s Museum of the West provides a rare opportunity to view a collection of Lone Wolf ’s work in an exhibit that opened June 21, 2016 and is running through August 31, 2016. For more information on exhibit hours and associated events, call (480) 686-9539 or visit the Museum’s Web site, www.scottsdale museumwest.org.

Meet the Land Before Time Kittens: Cera, Ducky, Littlefoot, Petrie, and Spike!

These adorable kittens are waiting to go to their forever homes. Each kitten’s adoption fee includes spay/neuter, a microchip, and the first round of shots. All kittens need to go to an indoor-only home.

The adoption fee for one kitten is $75 for one kitten, or $100 for two kittens – because when it comes to kittens, two

can be even better than one!If you’d like to add one or

more of these little kitties to your

family, please fill out an Anthem Pets adoption form, located online at www.anthempets.org/adoptionprocess.

Anthem Pets (www.anthempets.org) is a nonprofit animal rescue organization serving lost, found, and abandoned animals in the North Valley since 2005. Operating on donations only, it aims to find forever

homes for abandoned animals and return wayward pets to owners. If you’re not in a position to adopt but would still like to help Anthem Pets, please consider making a donation so we can continue to rescue animals like this from a life of cruelty and neglect. Or better yet, become a foster!

Pets of the Week: The Land Before Time Kittens

We’re looking for forever homes, too! To learn more about us, visit www.anthempets.org.
