Neighbor’s Cold Shoulder Uninformed

Dear Doreen, My home sold so fast, I’m afraid my agent priced it too low. He assures me he didn’t, but I can’t imagine he would admit that now. one of my neighbors won’t speak to me saying I am ruining prices in our neighborhood. Did my house sell too cheaply? —Three-day-seller Dear Three-day-seller, after looking at your numbers and the comparable sales, I believe the offer you received is a bit high. If this is

a cash offer, you are in great shape. If the buyer is getting a loan, be prepared for an appraisal that comes in too low. Proof for your neighbor, but bad news for you. Unless the buyer is willing to pay more than the appraised value, you will have to reduce your price or put the home back on the market. Neighbors often don’t know the actual market values in their neighborhood and everyone likes to think their home is worth more than it is. —Doreen

Club Sends Mixed Messages With Events

he Anthem Country Club has sunk to a new low in their quest for money. It has announced it will sponsor a “Cigar Dinner” on June 15. Do you see the irony (hypocrisy) in their sponsoring a golf and tennis charity event to raise funds for cancer research and then later sponsoring a “Cigar Dinner,” when research has confirmed that the use of tobacco will cause cancer? The Club makes money by sponsoring both events.

Family-friendly Anthem Denies Neighborhood Hoop Fun

live on a close-knit, quiet, familyfriendly cul-de-sac in Anthem. Most of the nine residents on Peale Court are originals. We have watched our kids go from diapers to driving. We pride ourselves on creating an atmosphere where our kids feel safe and inspired to play outside together, whether they are 5 or 15. Recently we moved a neighbor’s basketball hoop from their backyard to the middle of the cul-de-sac for all of the kids to enjoy, and did they ever! Kids who usually are glued to their Xbox or their iPod were suddenly enjoying camaraderie during a game of hoops, or H-O-R-S-E. The adults were even spotted out there late at night getting their workout. Put away were the Nerf guns and ninja swords and returned were cheers, giggles, and playful taunts by sweaty and happy children.

Until, the HOA made us put it away. It is in no way an eyesore and it is out of the way of traffic, as we are not on a through-street. My child came home from school, immediately grabbed his basketball and ran towards the street and stopped. “Where is the hoop, I want to get the kids?” he asked, close to tears. I love Anthem and have lived here for 12 years. Isn’t Anthem’s biggest draw the family-friendly atmosphere? Pick your battles, HOA; there are weeds and chipping paint aplenty. It makes me sad that our little hoop is causing you such a disturbance.

Belts can crack in the heat and, in newer cars, belts drive many important parts such as water pumps, steering and the charging system. If that belt comes apart, disaster can happen.

Mike Mielnicki of Mobil One Lube Express offers this simple suggestion: “Make sure you have a fire extinguisher in the trunk,” said Mielnicki. “During my 35 years of experience of working on cars, I have seen first-hand electrical fires, gasoline fires, anti-freeze fires and power steering fluid fires.

The first time Anthem resident Michelle (last name withheld) left her then 12 and 9-year-old boys alone was for a 15-minute stint she’ll never forget. She went over all the typical rules—don’t answer the door for strangers, don’t tell anyone on the phone you are alone, don’t play with matches, scissors, knives... just watch TV and play nice. “Fifteen minutes, that’s all I kept saying to myself... fifteen minutes that I prayed about before, during and definitely after. Fifteen minutes later I pull up to the sight of a huge bobcat laying across my front walkway... A freakin’ bobcat! Are you kidding? Needless to say, it’s been two years and I am just starting to feel comfortable again to leave for 15 minutes at a time,” Michelle said. The Phoenix Police Department recommends a “reasonableness test” to help determine when a child might be ready to “hold down the fort” for short periods.

If there is a fire, is your child mature enough to get herself and younger siblings out of the house? In addition, the American Red Cross offers an online babysitter preparation course for ages 11 and up, and the Anthem Community Center offers a childcare and babysitting safety course for ages 10-16.

One day, I promise to send some cookies to Angelo in the Big Apple for his approval. The pignoli cookie is a uniquely flavored and textured cookie. Surprisingly, though, it has only four ingredients. The pignoli nuts are pricey. The cookies commonly sell for more than $20 per pound. That makes them more expensive than lobster or filet mignon.

Then, roll the ball in a plate of pine nuts so the nuts adhere to the batter. 6 Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and press down to gently flatten. 7 Bake until lightly browned yet soft, about 15–18 minutes.

On the contrary, these trinkets and others are proudly displayed on the center shelf of the bookcase in my office, holding a place of high esteem like the treasures they are. The only gift that isn’t there is my Darth Vader Bobblehead that has proclaimed me “Galaxy’s Best Father,” which I think is a notch or two above “World’s Best Father,” though I’ve been unable to get unequivocal verification on that. This year, now that the kids are getting a little older, I’m hoping I won’t have to finance the nifty gifties, but if I do, I really won’t mind all that much. It is the thought behind it that counts, but more importantly, it is the memory that attaches itself to the gift. Truth be told, I don’t always feel like the Galaxy’s best father; no matter how hard we try, no parent bats a thousand. But despite my flaws and shortcomings, I have a shelf full of proof that (at least sometimes) my kids think I’m out of this world. Father’s Day is a nice time to celebrate that. io

BUSINESS

Leaving the Station he Station, just more than a year T in operation, unceremoniously closed its doors and is to reopen,

pending new ownership. The restaurant’s website and Facebook page made no mention of the closure, however a small sign on the Station’s door states it will reopen soon. How soon is not yet known. The Station, opened just last year, when entrepreneur John Panfil purchased the historic property and decided to try his hand at the restaurant business. The Station, previously home to New River Station and Poor Red’s Station, touted a new, more health-conscious menu with natural food options.

POLITICS

One Percent Back in Your Pocket

he temporary tax rate approved by voters in 2010 expired May 31, reducing the state sales tax from 6.6 percent to 5.6 percent as of June 1. Also, the state rate for transient lodging (hotel tax) will decrease from 6.5 percent to 5.5 percent. The tax decrease affects retail, restaurants, bars, and other categories. It will negatively impact public schools as proceeds from the temporary sales tax benefited the state school system. Public schools around the state are bracing for budget cuts, resorting to larger class sizes and/ or cutting back on certain programs. The sting is especially sharp after many schools have had to deal with significant budget cuts during the recession.

PEOPLE

Teen Wins $5K-Violin abrielle Lorenc plays violin at a G level beyond her years... and until recently, beyond her instrument. “Not

having that higher quality instrument was holding me back in certain areas,” said the 14-year-old. But thanks to North Valley Symphony Orchestra and local luthier, Jody Summerford, Lorenc is playing a handmade violin valued at $5,000. She won the instrument in a competition among North Valley Symphony Orchestra’s Symphonettes and Youth Orchestra. Contestants were required to write an essay and audition. Lorenc, with nine years playing experience, is the concert master for North Valley Symphony Youth Orchestra and plays second violin in the NVSO Adult Orchestra. Summerford, inspired by NVSO’s efforts to nurture and develop young musicians, plans to donate a handmade instrument to the organization each year.

(IN)TOLERANCE “What do you think of Boy Scouts

of America’s decision to accept gay youths into its organization, while maintaining a ban on gay adults?”

Misti Taylor

Maggie Bixler

Gabriel Hernandez

“How can you accept one without the other? You are either all accepting or not accepting at all.”

“You want kids to feel included and loved. It shouldn’t matter with the kids. It’s hypocritical to not apply the same standard to everyone. What happens when a gay scout grows up and wants to be a scout leader?”

“I think a kid should be allowed inside the Scouts. It’s not fair to not allow an adult because of being gay or straight.”
