CONCIERGE CORNER

By Alicja Davis, Concierge

We often find ourselves spending a little too much time looking down at our computer and TV screens forgetting that the world around us is full of natural wonders. With that in mind, I realized it’s been a long time since my last outdoor escapade and decided to join the Stellar Adventures team to experience an off-road tour in Arizona’s beautiful back yard – the Sonoran Desert.

The tour’s meeting place was at a parking lot near the historic 4 Peaks Trail off of Highway 87. Once I arrived at the designated location, our tour guides – Chad, Katy, Kenyon, and Colton gave us a quick, but very efficient training on how to safely ‘operate’ our ATV and UTV vehicles.

We had an opportunity to practice our newly acquired skills on a ‘training track’ near the parking lot. I chose to try the UTV which seats four people and is amazingly quick and light in action.

Its agility and movement combined with flawless balance and speed makes this UTV perfectly suited for off-road excursions.

Before we left on our tour, our guides explained the specifics of the trails to the entire group in a fun and competent fashion. They provided important tips on how to handle the vehicles in the different terrain.

Their familiarity and knowledge of the trails is simply outstanding! Once my helmet was on, I buckled up and took off with Chad ahead and Katy following behind the group.

I couldn’t believe the feeling of instant adrenaline rushing through my veins. The views were spectacular.

There was nothing but nature around me and

Toscana Living | 6

the sound of the humming engine letting me fly through the vast openness of the Sonoran Desert.

We went through washes and ridges, soft sands and rocky areas, teeter-totters and whoop de whoops.

The speed was adjusted to our comfort level and we stopped at intervals to catch our breath and to simply get a ‘preview’ of the trail ahead. Chad was fantastic; he made sure everybody felt safe and comfortable. He knew

how to customize the tour based on his observations and assessment of our skills. His effortless humor and ease makes him a perfect tour guide. Not only is he very approachable and fun, he truly knows this land and he has a deep respect for the surrounding nature and its creatures.

Stellar Adventures will take you on an unforgettable and inspiring excursion. I felt like I caught the wind in my wings and returned with a big grin stamped on my face. The freedom, the thrill, and fun are beyond words.

The exhilarating feeling and the infinite beauty that opens our mind makes this experience simply stellar!

Toscana Lifestyle LESSON TEE

By Alex Fisher, PGA Pro Join Golf Digest Magazine’s ‘America’s Best Young Teachers’, Alex Fisher, at the Wildfire Golf Club on Saturday, December 3rd from 11am to 12:30pm.

During the clinic with Alex you will learn all the short game shots that were featured in the June 2016 issue of Golf Digest Magazines “5 Minute Clinic” article.

This event is limited to the first 6 people to sign up.

Email alexanderfisher@pga.com to reserve your spot.

HOW TO CHIP IT GREAT

A good setup is the key to better contact

Golfers who struggle with chipping make the setup too complicated. They’ve been told to take an open stance, set their weight forward, play the ball back, and lean the shaft toward the target. That’s a lot of information, so they end up misapplying it.

As I’m showing in the lower left photo, playing the ball back often causes you to lean away from the target. This shifts your weight

back, even though you feel like it’s on your front foot. Now the shaft leans forward excessively.

The leading edge is going to stick in the ground and produce a low shot that runs too hard.

Instead, set up square with a middle ball position. Now you can feel relaxed with good posture.

To confirm that your weight is forward, raise your back heel off the turf. Set the toe of your

back shoe in line with the heel of your front shoe. Your spine should be vertical, even a touch toward the target (below, right).

Practice from this heel-up position.

You’ll be surprised how pure you strike it.

ALEX FISHER Facilities: Glacier Club, Durango, CO; Wildfire Golf Club, Phoenix, AZ “I’m from Nottingham, England, so I grew up as a raving soccer fan. But when Nick Faldo won the Masters and Open Championship in 1990, my passion switched. I admired his discipline, and I liked that golf was a game you could work on by yourself.

Best advice “Play your next round as match play against the golf course.

If you’re a bogey golfer, a par is a win; a double bogey or worse is a loss of just one hole. This will shift your focus away from protecting a score. You’ll stay in the moment and usually play better.

In and Around Toscana MANAGER TIDBITS

By Dick Rosenhagen, Community Manager

TOSCANA ANNUAL MEETING The Annual Meeting of the Members has been held in November each of the past years, however this year the Board decided to move the meeting. It has been scheduled for February 6, 2017 and will be exciting as the Board has decided to add three owners in good standing to serve on the Board.

Based on the survey results from earlier this year, the Board intends on implementing a fair process allowing the Declarant to appoint homeowner members to the Board of Directors. This will be accomplished by removing one Statesman board member and having the Declarant appointing three owners to the Board of Directors following a preference election which will be held on February 6, 2017 at the Annual Meeting of the Members. Following this preference election

ACCREDITED BUSINESS ÂŽ

and appointment, the Board of Directors will consist of seven individuals acting as one Board.

Tentative timeline follows: ~ The Association will request volunteer homeowner applications for a seat on the Board of Directors in early November 2016. ~ Deadline for volunteer applications will be in early December 2016. ~ Candidate Bio’s and ballots to be mailed out in early January 2017. ~ Meet the Candidates Event to be held in the middle of January 2017. ~ Annual Meeting of the Members and announcement/ appointment of new homeowners to the Board of Directors will be held on February 6, 2017.

I look forward to seeing all Owners who are able to attend the Annual Meeting.

ASSISTANT MANAGER UPDATES

By Nicole Careaga, Assistant Manager OH! HOW TIME FLIES! The year was 2006. George W. Bush was the president. The Pittsburgh Steelers took home Super Bowl XL rings. The St. Louis Cardinals won the World Series. The first generation of the MacBook Pro was distributed.

While all of this was going on in the world, an event bigger event was taking place - owners were beginning to move into their brand new homes here at Toscana.

It has been a great and fast paced ten years. Now we enter the next era, the age of renovations. Many of you are ready to update, upgrade and refresh your living spaces.

As you begin to go through the remodeling process, we ask that you remember to be courteous to those around you. Many of you hire contractors to complete these projects, and they don’t have the same respect for your buildings and neighbors as each of you do. Here is a list of reminders to present to your contractors during your next remodel: Common area hallways should be cleaned and left in the same condition as they were found.

Only front doors should be used to access all units.

Noise should be kept at a minimum when possible, and should only occur between 8am and 8pm.

Damage to a common area by a contractor is the responsibility of the owner and contractor to repair.

We understand that this is your home, and you work as hard on the inside as we do on the outside to keep this community a premier place to live.

For questions regarding improvements and alterations, please contact the association office at 480-585-0808.

In and Around Toscana UPDATES FROM YOUR MAINTENANCE TEAM

By Frank Young, Maintenance Supervisor

NATURAL GAS As many of you know the gas utility company recently discovered a natural gas leak in the outside yard line for Building 1.

As a result the gas was turned off until repairs could be made.

Natural gas is a gas that occurs deep beneath the earth’s surface. Natural gas consists mainly of methane, a gas (or compound) with one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms. Natural gas also contains small amounts of hydrocarbon liquids and nonhydrocarbon gases. It can be used as a fuel or to make materials and chemicals.

Natural gas is removed from the well, cleaned of the hydrocarbon liquids and nonhydrocarbon gases and sold as consumer natural gas and piped all over the country.

Because natural gas is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, mercaptan (a chemical that smells like sulfur) is added before distribution, to give natural gas a distinct unpleasant odor (it smells like rotten eggs). This added smell serves as a safety device by allowing it to be detected in the atmosphere in cases where leaks occur. Natural gas is lighter then air so it tends to rise.

Utility companies perform annual leak inspections to detect underground leaks. During these inspections all high pressure lines are tested by using gas detecting equipment at ground level and equipment used to probe beneath the surface around meter risers and locations where surface gas is detected. It was one of these routine inspections that discovered the leak at Building 1.

Toscana Living | 12

If the leak is on the customer side of the gas meter, the utility company is required to turn the gas off until repairs are made.

If you smell gas inside your unit do not turn on or off any light switches or electrical equipment.

Open your windows and back door to let fresh air in, and contact the management office or our night manager. If you smell gas outside of the building or in the hallway, contact the management office as well.

We do have gas detection equipment on the property.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the association office at 480-585-0808.

MOVIE REVIEW: THE ACCOUNTANT

By Gil Berkowitz QUIET THRILLER ADDS UP TO WINNER When you go to see the "The Accountant" do not think it is about filing your income tax form or debits and credits.

Far from it. Christian Wolff (Ben Affleck) is a CPA who caters to a select clientele. He is an autistic savant in math.

Simply put, he is a genius in math. Crime organizations and drug cartels use him to cook their books and launder their money. All of their secrets are hidden by him.

The success of this film is in its tone and pace. The main role is not a freakish character whose powers are used for card tricks-but more like a superhero. A Jason Bourne or Jack Reacher type. Christian Wolff is a man with a moral code and an affection for Renoir and Jackson Pollock paintings. He is an in depth character study. Beneath the surface he is a ruthless assassin.

He sees her as a kindred spirit. She is in danger for revealing the cooked books. However, she has Wolff protecting her. While this is going on another plot develops. J. K. Simmons (Ray King) is a soon to be retiring Treasury agent who is determined to find out who this underworld accountant truly is. He has personal reasons.

Affleck brings a mesmerizing stillness to his portrayal of the autistic hero. He is magnetic as a man bringing order to his chaotic surroundings. He has found a way to make the world work for him. This is one of his better performances.

Do not be fooled by the business like glasses and pocket pen protector. He is quite intense and intimidating. There is a scene of him as a young boy trying to solve a jigsaw puzzle. He cannot find a missing piece and he freaks out. This scene has a dual meaning. It sets off a lifetime pattern of having to complete each task and conveys the complexity of the movie. There are many flashbacks revealing his youth with his brother and father. The most interesting relationship is with his military-like father who teaches him how to deal with the real world. He is coached to understand his individuality. He understands he is "different" and realizes "different" scares people.

Wolff is hired to look into the cooked books at a company dealing in prosthetics and military contracts. Founder John Lithgow appears sincere when he asks Wolff to find who has stolen millions from the firm. Dana Cummings (Anna Kendrick) the plain looking employee of the firm and whistle-blower is attracted to him. And he to her.

Toscana Living | 14

The film is complicated. Fresh and pleasantly offbeat.

There are multiple plots meshed together seamlessly.

Many clues are planted throughout the movie that tie everything together. There are no loose ends. The film is playing at Harkins theaters throughout the valley. It runs for two hours and eight minutes and is rated R for violence and language.
