ASK DOREEN
Short Sellers Can Buy in as Little as Two Years Dear Doreen, You short sold our home for us last year and we’ve been renters since. Now we want to buy again and wondered if you know if we can get a loan? —Yearning to Own Dear Yearning, We get this question a lot as of late. Here’s what our lenders are telling us: • If you apply for a Fannie Mae loan, you must wait only two years from the close of your short sale if you have enough cash to put 20 percent down. If you have only enough cash to put 10 percent down, you
will have to wait four years from the close of your short sale. • If you are an FHA buyer, you must wait three years from the close of your short sale. • If you qualify for a USDA loan, it’s a three-year wait. • If you need a jumbo loan, you’ll have to curb your enthusiasm. The wait is seven years. Naturally, there are exceptions and loan programs are always changing guidelines. If you need a lender referral, please call/email. We have some outstanding lenders. —Doreen

Sealant Can Save Money and More Sealant is a smooth resin bonded to the pits and grooves of the back teeth. Sealant eliminates the hardto-clean grooves of the molars with a thin covering to protect from bacteria and acid. The Result: Less risk of decay— and the pain, treatment and expense that comes with it. Applying sealant is painless and needs no anesthetic. Ask Dr. Baskin how sealant can help prevent tooth decay… and bigger issues down the road.

hile it’s important for children to take advantage of the wonderful opportunities offered in our community, it’s also important to find ways to reduce our level of busy-ness in order to bring the family together and create memories. Here are five habits families can develop to create a great and memorable summer.

2 Play Together The old saying is true; families who play together, stay together. Unplug the electronics once in a while and play board games, go on a hike, or invite another family over for game night.
3 Appreciate Shared Silence Yoga, meditation and scheduled reading times can decrease the static in our lives. Gratitude for companionship is often most appreciated when we tune in to notice it.
4 Find a Family Mission
Build a sense of togetherness and teamwork by giving through volunteerism or mission projects. Decide who you would like to help, roll up your sleeves and together make a difference in someone’s life.
5 Establish Traditions
Whatever they may be, family rituals help shape our memories and fill them with love, happiness, and security. Traditions don’t have to be elaborate. In fact, sometimes the best traditions are the most simple—and come with no price tag.

Westwind Academy Anthem Closing Students and Staff to Merge with Westwind Prep, Phoenix students wanted,” said Superindendent Debra Slagle. “That is the challenge for a new high school.”

A letter to parents on the door of the school details the reasons behind the closing.
W
ith an eye on providing area students with the option of a smaller high school, Westwind Preparatory Academy at Anthem opened in August 2010. But, just as quickly as it came, the charter school—operated by Westwind Children’s Services—is closing, merging students and staff with Westwind Preparatory Academy on Northern Avenue east of I-17 in Phoenix.
Slow Growth Cited
“Our [initial] goal was to grow the [Anthem] school to 300–350 [students], however, we could not seem to grow it fast enough to provide all the extra services, sports and activities that For more info or to make an appointment to meet WPA staff, call 602-864-7731.

Westwind at Anthem ended the school year with 65 students, and the charter’s lease on the facility at Vision Way was set to expire, Slagle said. In order to build a facility as it did with Caurus Academy (K–8), the high school would have needed enrollment of least 200.
The Bright Side Admitting the merger is a significant change for current students and their families, Slagle told In&Out there are multiple benefits of combining the two campuses. Students will have immediate access to more electives, a full science lab, the IB Diploma Programme, dual enrollment courses for college credit, and additional sports and activities. Free shuttle service will be provided for Anthem students from Caurus on Opportunity Way to the Northern Avenue campus. Only a handful of families have announced their intention not to return, said Slagle.

attempts to negotiate a change in the language of the collateral clause failed, Council decided to ditch financing altogether. The move will save nearly $1 million longterm by forgoing interest payments, but with an estimated $1.5 million in renovations, the project will drain all but about $950,000 from the fund. (The fund currently brings in an estimated $500,000 annually through a small fee levied on the sale of each Anthem home.) Some residents expressed concern about the future of enhancement projects, but CFO Doug Greenstein said, “If in the future there is a desire to accelerate projects, the building can then become the same collateral it could’ve been.” Several projects are currently under review by the Planning and Development Committee. CEO Jenna Kollings said resident comments and concerns about the building purchase were compiled throughout the duediligence period and shared with Council members, however, the quantity and content of that feedback was not made public. io JULY 5, 2012 |

y wife and I were headed home after a lovely, two-and-a-half hour celebratory meal. I don’t recall the occasion, but I can remember the meal in vivid detail. I was in
my perfect zone: A time when I feel content after enjoying a meal and not yet planning what I will eat next. As I navigated our minivan through Anthem, I received a call. My buddy, Royce, called
with an offer of leftovers. He prepared a new dish he called ‘legit.’ He uses this word as an adjective to describe anything he thinks is special. Because I was in my zone, which usually lasts 53 minutes, I declined. With wide-eyes brimming with concern, my wife reached over to feel my forehead; she thought I was ill. I never refuse an invitation tied to food. Moments later, I was back on the phone (speaker phone, kids) with Royce and told him I would be there soon. I feel so loved when someone offers me leftovers. Royce ushered me to his pasta creation like a school boy excited about his macaroni art. He had every right to be so excited. In front of me was the best pasta dish I ever tasted. Royce braised short-ribs, tossed the meat with cream, cheese and spinach, gently rolled lasagna noodles around the mixture, and then cradled the rolls in tomato sauce. One bite and I knew I was eating the Rolls Royce of pasta. I almost forgot that I was driving the family minivan back home. Make this recipe. Enjoy this recipe. Live in the zone. Ciao Bella!

1 Season ribs with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil over medium-high in large oven-proof pot. Brown ribs on all sides. Remove ribs from pot. 2 Sauté onion and garlic for 1-2 minutes. Add wine, water, tomato paste and bring to a boil. 3 Add ribs back to pot, cover and place in pre-heated 350 degree oven for 2 ½ hours. 4 In small sauce pan, warm heavy cream and stir in mozzarella and pecorino cheese until melted. Then stir in spinach. Add salt and pepper to taste. Set aside. 5 When ribs are cooled down (disregard liquid), fork-shred the rib meat and combine with the cream mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste. 6 Lay lasagna noodles out and distribute the mixture evenly over each. Roll noodles and place in sauced baking tray, seam side down. Top each roll with additional sauce and sprinkle with grated cheese. Bake in 350-degree oven for approximately 30 minutes. Serves 4–6.

Larry tips
Save the rib cooking liquid for another day and use it as a sauce for gnocchi or your favorite pasta. Start cooking the cream mixture and lasagna noodles while the ribs are cooling down before shredding.
