Foothills Food Bank in Deadline for Cave Creek Rodeo need of food donations Queen and Teen approaching CAVE CREEK – Foothills Food Bank & Resource Center needs non-perishable food donations.

Pam DiPietro, executive director for Foothills Food Bank, says even more families and individuals are in need of food due to changing economic forces and work transitions.

“Factors such as job change issues, the partial government shutdown and other life changes have resulted in an increase in the nutritional needs of many in our communities,” DiPietro said. “We ask the public to provide us with food donations

to increase our food inventory through spring.”

She also added that the food bank also encourages area businesses, churches and individuals to host food drives just like they would during the holidays, and ask food purveyors to help.

Foothills Food Bank and Resource Center provides emergency food, financial assistance and other life necessities and resources to individuals and families in the

Rare pedal steel guitar added to MIM’s electric guitar exhibit

PHOENIX – The Musical Instrument Museum (MIM) added a recently restored 1948 T-8 console pedal steel guitar, which is the first pedal steel made by inventor and electric guitar pioneer Paul Bigsby, to its special exhibition, The Electric Guitar: Inventing an American Icon.

Played by western swing artist Speedy West, the guitar fell into disrepair and had been neglected for years until musician, historian, and collector Deke Dickerson rediscovered it.

After matching the instrument’s wood grain with archival photos, Dickerson realized he had found Speedy West’s

long-lost original Bigsby guitar.

The rare instrument features three eight-string necks and four foot-operated “tone changer” pedals, enabling a wide range of chords and melodies.

“Deke was one of the earliest supporters of this exhibition, and this final piece really completes our initial vision of celebrating the origins and pioneers of the electric guitar,” says Richard Walter, MIM’s curator for the United States, Canada and Europe.

For more information about the MIM’s electric guitar exhibit or to purchase tickets visit MIM.org.

Have you been tidying up?

Yes, it seems we Americans cannot get enough of Marie Kondo, Japanese de-cluttering guru, whose book and teachings are showing us the way to a neater and more joyful life.

The KonMari method, as it is called, is the roadmap to changing your life through organizing and letting go of the “stuff ” you no longer need or use. Sounds pretty simple. So, I am in a tidying up mode.

The first step in decluttering is to go by category and not a room. I thought I would start with clothes.

And before I went through mine, I noticed quite a few things in my husband, Doug’s closet that he hadn’t worn in a while. I do recall Kondo saying work on your own belongings first, but I asked Doug if I

might “help” him sort through his clothes.

“Sure,” he yelled while watching the Rams and Saints football game. As I asked him about various old shirts and pants, wondering if I could give them to charity, he seemed annoyed.

Then I noticed a particularly worn and faded denim shirt and asked if he still wanted it. No response.

Then I asked the “golden Kondo question,” which is, “Does this shirt spark joy in you?” Doug just stared at me like I had two heads and said, “it’s just a shirt!” No touchdown.

OK lesson number one, when you are tidying up start on your own side of the closet, which is what I did next. I found slacks I hadn’t worn in a few years, blouses that I had forgotten about and shoes that I am still wondering what possessed me to buy.

Several psychologists have claimed that if you want to know who you are, just look in your closet. Well, not sure about that, but it did feel like “therapy” evaluating my clothes choices.

Kondo says that regardless of when you bought an item, if you aren’t enjoying it,

get rid of it. Give it away! Feel no guilt! Simply recall the joy it gave you when you bought it.

Ha! Easier said than done. I have a metallic gray handbag with long fringe that I bought with my sister-in-law because she said it looked like me.

Well, I have never used it because it really looks more like Tina Turner.

Tidying up can be painful.

Especially, when you see the error of your shopping ways all laid out in front of you.

Surveys reveal that one in four American adults feel they have “too much” stuff.

It seems that the “tidying up” trend is a positive thing. Secondhand stores are receiving more donations, junk drawers are getting cleaned out, closets, kitchens and garages are becoming organized and “joy” is in the air.

Dear Readers, take the “tidying up challenge” and feel the thrill and freedom of letting go! Oh, and if anyone wants a white cowboy hat with big peacock feathers, just give me a call. My clutter, your joy?

Judge Williams’ Column

Proposed law could help clear judgments

BY JUDGE GERALD A. WILLIAMS NORTH VALLEY JUSTICE OF THE PEACE

The Arizona legislature is in session, which means many new laws are being considered.

One of these is designed to help people clear civil judgments.

If adopted, House Bill 2151 would add new sections that apply bot to the civil division of justice courts and to small claims courts.

Both new sections would grant the authority for a justice of the peace to deem a civil judgment to be satisfied under certain limited circumstances.

A Satisfaction of Judgment is a form that the plaintiff files with the court stating that

site from ranch land to singlefamily residential with a density of about 3 homes per acre.

The empty plot is annexed into the City of Phoenix and located near the post office in west Anthem, with a large portion of the parcel located in the New River wash and a flood zone, which will require the developer to raise areas of land so it can be used, according to the information shared with residents at the meeting.

At one point someone in the crowd at the meeting shouted, “leave the river alone!” as the developer explained its proposal to elevate land near New River wash to remove it from the flood zone, which would ultimately require approval from Federal Emergency Management

the defendant has paid the judgment in full.

Problems that can arise: When the judgment has been paid but the plaintiff won’t file a Satisfaction of Judgment; Or when the defendant wants to pay the judgment, but can no longer locate the plaintiff (like when a different company now owns the apartment complex or a plaintiff has either died, etc.).

Without a Satisfaction of Judgment, it may be difficult for the defendant either to obtain good credit or to timely close on a house.

Although these problems are not necessarily widespread, for the people involved, it is an immediate crisis.

These problems may become more frequent because A.R.S. § 12-1612(E) was recently amended to allow judgments to be renewed and to be valid for 10 years. The previous period was five years.

As such, if a defendant wants to pay off a judgment that is nine-years-old, there is currently no mechanism for him to do so if the plaintiff died five years earlier.

A solution is to amend title 22 to allow justices of the peace (JP) to deem a judgment satisfied.

Deem is an admittedly odd legal term that allows everyone to pretend something happened when it really did not. It creates a legal fiction, but a lawful one.

In short, even if the plaintiff did not file a Satisfaction of Judgment, a judge would have the authority to declare that the judgment is satisfied.

Because there will be different fact patterns, the proposed statute is flexible.

A JP can set these cases for a hearing, but would not be required to do so.

If the judgment has not been paid and the plaintiff cannot be located, a JP would have the option of having the defendant pay the amount due into the court. If the plaintiff remains missing, the amount would eventually be transferred to unclaimed property.

Agency (FEMA).

Other community members that live near the proposed development voiced their concerns that raising the land would just create flooding problems for neighboring properties.

The developer plans on creating two parks and preserving a portion of the 55 acres for open space if the subdivision is approved.

Many people that attended the meeting were concerned about the proposed development’s proximity to the wash, obstruction of views for residents living in West Anthem and traffic issues that could arise.

With the recent announcement of Caurus Academy’s new campus opening in August of 2019 just north of the post office and adjacent to the proposed housing development, the

community seemed worried that the traffic study conducted was insufficient because it did not take the new 64,000-square-foot campus into account.

The representative at the meeting acknowledged they were not aware of the new middle and high school campus that will soon be located southeast of its property as it was just recently announced last week, according to a source on background.

The New River Desert Hills Incorporation Committee (NRDHIC) started an online petition in opposition to the proposed development that can be found on its Facebook page or at Change.org.

BY TARA ALATORRE

ANTHEM – Less than one year after welcoming its inaugural high school class at its campus in Anthem, Caurus Academy announced that it will be opening a new facility for students in high school and middle school grades in west Anthem, which will be opening in August 2019.

“I am extremely excited to share the good news that Caurus has been working on for the last two years,” said Dameon Blair, the director of Caurus Academy.

“I am very excited to share that we just acquired 10-acres with a 64,000-square-foot facility that will be built in the next eight months here in the community of Anthem, Arizona.”

The new campus will be located near 43rd Avenue and Circle Mountain Road and will have two buildings; one will be a 38,000-square-foot, two-story building; and the other is a 18,000-square-foot gymnasium, according to the announcement video Caurus released on social media on January 20.

The larger building will have two wings. One wing will be for the middle school students, while the other will be for the high school students.

“Both groups of students will have access to our state-of the art science labs, fine arts labs and media production room,” Blair said in the video.

TheFoothillsFocus.com The gymnasium will support the school’s growing athletic program with a weight room, lockers, training room and concession area.

Caurus Academy’s new facility will also have a music room, media production studio and a performance area with a stage once it is completed.

“Every part of our new facility was strategically designed with intentional purpose on safety for our students and faculty,” he said.

The school will have security cameras, gated entrance, secured lobby and strategic

Peoria ends pilot program with Bird Scooter Company, seeks alternative transportation solutions PEORIA – From bike rental services to electric scooters, alternate shared transportation has had a profound impact on how people get around in cities across the country.

The city has been exploring these opportunities with the use of electric scooters along key bus routes to serve as the “first mile, last mile” transportation for residents. A recent pilot program ended when a proposed temporary contract with the electric scooter company, Bird, could not be finalized in a way that would protect the city and its taxpayers, according to Peoria.

In the fall of 2018, Bird’s electric scooters rapidly appeared on the streets of Peoria.

Prior to the arrival of the commercial scooters, Peoria’s city ordinance did not allow for this type of commercial transportation on streets or sidewalks. The city worked quickly to create a temporary operating agreement to manage the scooters.

A pilot program was developed to study the use and operation of Bird’s scooters. This program was intended to evaluate how this new transportation system would be used, while balancing public safety concerns.

Specifically, the city would allow commercial scooters to be deployed and ridden in Peoria, while implementing interim regulations. The city was to evaluate issues such as safety, demand, usage, code compliance, economic impact and community response.

Soon after the city council approved a temporary operating agreement for the pilot program, Bird made major handwritten changes to the approved agreement, according to Peoria.

The city says one of these changes would have placed significant liability, risk and exposure to lawsuits and claims against the city and its taxpayers. As a result, the agreement was never finalized, and Bird will conclude its operations in Peoria.

“Our goal is to make transportation in Peoria accessible to all, whether it be the new circulator bus route, bike lanes or alternative personal transportation,” said Peoria City Manager Jeff Tyne.

“A variety of transportations options ensures that our

residents’ transportation needs are met in an affordable and sustainable way. While doing so, it is important to consider the safety and wellbeing of the community.”

Peoria will continue to evaluate alternative transportation opportunities to assess what options are best suited for Peoria residents.

Traffic safety funds awarded to Peoria Police PEORIA – The Governor’s Office of Highway Safety recently awarded the Peoria Police Department a $30,000 grant to help increase pedestrian, school zone, school bus and bicycle safety in and around the City of Peoria.

This funding will allow Peoria police officers to provide a multi-

faceted approach to traffic safety through education, deterrence and aggressive enforcement of our state traffic laws.

The Peoria Police Department plans to utilize grant funding for overtime enforcement and providing educational awareness about the traffic laws and safety rules in these areas.

The grant will also allow the department to continue their Bicycle Safety Partnership by providing instruction to grade school students as well as hosting multiple Bicycle Safety Rodeos throughout the city.

movie review

BY MONTE YAZZIE FILM CRITIC

Portrayals of love and longing in film, especially good examples, always come with a hefty dose of suffering.

From recent examples like Wong Kar-wai’s “In the Mood for Love,” and Spike Jonze’s new age “Her,” to classics like Michael Curtiz’s iconic “Casablanca,” and George Cukor’s brilliant “Holiday.”

Love, longing and suffering can be fascinating characteristics of human nature with intoxicating insights into the complexities of romance.

Director Pawel Pawlikowski,

COLD WAR Director: Pawel Pawlikowski Starring: Joann Kulig, Tomasz Kot, Borys Szyc, and Agata Kulesza Monte’s Rating 4.25 out of 5.00 who directed the sublime “My Summer of Love,” and the solemn “Ida” tackles a romance made complicated by politics and art.

“Cold War” unfolds over the course of time with two people

North Valley Assembly of God Church

who are deeply in love with each other, but are forced to separate numerous times because of the world they live in.

The film begins in 1949 with a musician named Wiktor (Tomasz Kot) who is exploring the Polish countryside in search of folk music to record and recruit musicians. Wiktor is trying to create an ensemble of artists meant to serve the purpose of the political structure instead

of the culture and storytelling these folk songs infuse.

This brings Wiktor into company with Zula, a singer desperate to escape her circumstances. Wiktor and Zula become instantly attracted to one another, which turns into a complicated love story that will define their years as a couple.

“Cold War” is composed with beautiful black and white photography. The monochrome palette pulls the rich details of the environment and adds striking contrast to many of the scenes where the long-in-love couple are separated by a world that views everything with simplistic ideals.

The photographic choice also organizes the story like an old scrapbook being flipped through years after the events take place.

Distressed pictures of faded memories showing the smiles amongst the blurry backgrounds of a world that never stops changing, never stops threatening the happiness of people who love one each other.

The fantastic character development, which amazingly takes place over the relatively short 89 minutes, is assisted by the ferocious performances from Joann Kulig, and Tomasz Kot. The actors are perfectly cast for the roles and their chemistry is incendiary, specifically the non-verbal communication that composing the course of their changing relationship.

Zula’s fading smile and Wiktor’s deep gazes are telling a completely emotional story by themselves, without any dialog or storyline to drive the message.

“Cold War” does so much while doing so little; it explores the consequences of a changing political structure that knowingly, and unknowingly ripples transformations throughout the lives of people trying simply to survive.

Director Pawel Pawlikowski crafts a romantic story that is filled with passion and pain, optimism and melancholy.

However, through the journey over time, over love and over loss, “Cold War” will seduce you with performances and technique.

It’s suffering at its finest but also a sweeping and richly detailed vision of love.

Love letters reaching through time

BY SHEA STANFIELD ARTS COLUMNIST

Anna, an 86-year-old victim of a home invasion in Phoenix, was left brutally beaten, unconscious and hospitalized.

Unable to live on her own she was relocated to Utah near her son and his family.

Anna's story began many years before, in the Midwest, preceding and during the Great Depression. This story, which is revealed in a page-turning historical fiction novel titled “The Starve Hollow Affair,” may have never been told if local author Patricia (Patty) Schoenfeld had not discovered thousands of love letters dating from the years 1927-1937.

The letters were tightly packed in a box at the bottom of a closet in her mother's home, during a final cleanout. The contents revealed the love Anna had for two men in her life and the shocking secrets she had kept for over 70 years.

Patty was born in Alexandria, Indiana, but grew-up in Phoenix.

Her parents moved to the area in 1945 seeking a dryer climate for her father's health.

Both parents were English teachers, her father taught at Phoenix Union High School until he passed away in 1961.

Patty's mother, equally talented in the art of writing, created short stories about her family history based on a collection of Civil War letters written by Patty's great-grandfather to her great-grandmother.

Although Patty loved to write and tell her own stories she went on to graduate from Phoenix College School of Nursing in 1962.

She began her 47-year career as a registered nurse. Then later became a case manager where her writing consisted of various case management development programs and articles for health magazines.

TheFoothillsFocus.com

The Foothills Focus

Once she retired Patty could devote her attention to honing her creative writing skills.

"My initial developmental instructors for my novel were author Susan Pohlman and writing coach Cynthia Keifer, Ph.D," Patty stated.

Upon completion of the instruction phase, Patty joined five author groups that provided an opportunity to connect with other authors both highly skilled and those new to the craft.

Today, Patty's office is setup in her Arizona room of her home, but she freely admits her favorite place to work is her dining room table where she can spread out research, paperwork, and in the case of “The Starve Hollow Affair” her mother's letters.

“The Starve Hollow Affair” largely takes place in a farming community in Southern at Indiana University where her mother, Anna, attended college.

Since publication, in March 2018, Patty has participated in numerous book signings both in Arizona and in Indiana.

She was the guest of honor for a book signing at the Fort Vallonia’s 50th Anniversary in Indiana in October of 2018. This annual event draws between 20,000 to 30,000 people and is in the town where “The Starve Hollow Affair” begins.

The North Valley community has an opportunity to meet author Patty Schoenfeld and hear the intriguing details of her journey as an author writing “The Starve Hollow Affair,” and get a sneak-peek into her upcoming sequel to be published this year, “The Final Air Castle.”

Patty's presentation will be at the Desert Foothills Library on February 13, from 2-3:30 p.m. Please contact the library, 480-488-2286, to reserve your space. For more information visit the library's website desertfoothillslibrary.org.

BLACK CANYON CITY – A Yavapai County Sheriff ’s Office (YCSO) deputy helped apprehend a 49-year-old man wanted for an out-of-state kidnapping when he spotted the suspect’s vehicle driving the on northbound Interstate 17 near milepost 252 outside of Black Canyon City a few weeks ago.

YCSO Deputy Derek Rousseau first spotted the silver passenger rental car from Kentucky on January 13, around 7 p.m. while assisting the Arizona Department of Public Safety (AZDPS) locate a vehicle with Kentucky plates

involved in an alleged kidnapping of a 14-year-old boy from San Diego, Calif.

However, the deputy only saw the driver of the vehicle and not the passenger and victim that was also inside the vehicle at the time, so Rosseau did not pull him over.

Shortly after seeing the vehicle with Kentucky plates, which the deputy noted as slightly unusual for the time, there was an update on the suspect’s location based on his cell phone information and the target location was close to where he had spotted the Kentucky rental vehicle.

Rousseau immediately notified YCSO deputies and AZDPS troopers of the vehicle’s description, approximate location and its direction based on the updated information, according to law enforcement officials.

AZDPS troopers were able to locate and stop the vehicle, which had the teen victim inside, and arrested Carlie Bentley, who was allegedly headed to his home state of Kentucky. The victim was unharmed and taken into protective custody, according to YCSO. Bentley was taken to the Camp Verde Detention Center where he was held without bond.

The Sand Diego Police Department and the FBI are handling the case, and at the time this was written the FBI had not responded to requests about Bentley’s charges regarding this incident.

$30,000 in grants available to charities focused on women, children PHOENIX – The Arizona Women’s Partnership, Inc. (AZWP), an ALL volunteer philanthropic 501 c(3) nonprofit that awards grants to grass roots charities that assist under-served women and children at risk here in Arizona, announced its 2019 grant application is now open.

"We are proud to note that the Arizona Women's Partnership, Inc. has awarded over $415,000 in grants since 2003 to more than 55 grass roots nonprofits, many of which are multiple year recipients," AZWP President and Founder and longtime Valley resident Paula Cullison said. “The Arizona Women's Partnership plans to award another $30,000 in grants this cycle.”

Past grant recipients addressed critical issues, such as domestic violence, child abuse, adult literacy, youth at risk, ESL,

foster children, refugees, homelessness, health and hunger. Funds are generated through donations and fundraisers.

Recently, AZWP received a generous donation of $25,000 from the Violet M. Johnson Family Foundation, given in honor of their late maternal grandmother whose philanthropy continues to help women and children in need.

The requirements for AZWP applicants are: it must be a 501 c(3) non-profit with an operating budget of under $450,000; be in good financial standing; be nonsectarian; non-partisan; non-school affiliated; and reflect our mission.

The grant application, which is available on AZWP’s website, must be postmarked by March 31, 2019. Grant awards will be distributed mid-year.
