Fans ready for Spring Training BY TOM SCANLON

NEWS...............5 Woman arrested for killing husband, hiding body

February 20, 2020

As Spring Training, the season of baseball optimism and joy is poised to begin this weekend, there are two words to avoid saying to Los Angeles Dodgers fans: Houston Astros. The dateline last week was Glendale when ESPN.com published an interview with Dodgers superstar Cody Bellinger. The reigning National League MVP trashed the trashcan-pounding Houston Astros, recently busted by baseball officials for an intricate sign-stealing scheme. “Those guys were cheating for three years,” Bellinger said. “Everyone knows they stole the ring from us.” Camelback Ranch-Glendale held a Saturday open house for fans of the Dodgers

and Chicago White Sox, the two teams that call Glendale their Spring Training home. Staff handed out free hot dogs, players signed autographs and kids got to run around the bases. Fans like Jesus Orozco and his two little daughters, Riley and Penny, were sporting Dodgers jerseys. And, beneath the spring ball smiles, many were clutching grudges. Should the Astros be stripped of the 2017 title, and Dodgers named the champions? “Should be,” said Orozco. “But you can’t do anything about it.” Orozco, who lives in Glendale, will be able to share his feelings with thousands of other Dodgers fans. The Dodgers are

Preliminary data provided by the Glendale Police Department to the Glendale Star show many violent crimes were down significantly in 2019, compared to 2018. In 2019, 67 rapes were reported in Glendale, down 42% from 117 the year prior. Last year, 558 cases of aggravated assault involving a firearm, knife or other deadly weapon were investigated, it too was down 22% from the 723 in 2018. Burglaries fell from 1,641 in 2018 to

1,420 in 2019. The 2019 burglary number is about half of the 10-year average in Glendale and less than half the 2,847 robberies in 2012. Robberies were also down, from 325 in 2018 to 234 in 2019. The 2019 robbery number was less than half the 481 in 2017 and 476 in 2016. Motor vehicle thefts were also down significantly. In 2019, 801 vehicles were reported stolen in Glendale, down from 1,054 in 2018. This was the first time in more than a decade less than 1,000 vehicles were stolen in the city.

“I’m proud of the accomplishments of the hard-working men and women of the Glendale Police Department but with that being said, there is always work to be done,” said Glendale Police Chief Chris Briggs. A notable exception to the crime-falling trend: There were 19 people murdered in Glendale last year, up from nine in 2018. Over the last decade, an average of 17 people were murdered in Glendale.

Spring Training is a great time to get autographs from the likes of Lucas Gioloto, the Chicago White Sox rising star pitcher. (Glendale Star photo by Tom Scanlon)

consistently one of the biggest Cactus League draws, bringing fans near and far to Camelback Ranch. Orozoco said he comes to about four Spring Training games a year. The White Sox also have a solid fan base, with many Chicago natives who fled the bone-chilling winters for Arizona sunshine. At the open house, a few dozen waited patiently for autographs from the likes of pitcher Lucas Gioloto. The massive (6-foot-6, 245 pounds) rising star bent down to sign autographs and even posed with one fan for a selfie. One fan called out, asking him how he was doing. “I’m feeling good,” Gioloto answered. “I’m feeling real good.” It’s good news for Chicago fans, though not for American League batters: Gioloto is coming off a 14-9 year in which he struck out 228 in 176.2 innings pitched. White Sox fans hope Gioloto can lead Chicago to the playoffs. For those sporting Dodgers blue, anything less than a World Series title is a disappointment, considering the Dodgers superstar-packed lineup and rich history. Then again, fans of every team think their club will win it all this time of year. It’s also a time for fans to marvel at the skills of proven stars, and scout out the young players hoping to flash and crash big-league rosters. The fun begins at 1:05 p.m. Saturday, as the White Sox host the Los Angeles Angels. The Dodgers first home game is at 1:05 p.m. Sunday, as fierce rivals the

Chicago Cubs visit Glendale. The Dodgers and White Sox face each other three times in 2020 with the first meeting at 1:05 p.m. Monday. Camelback Ranch-Glendale is ready to begin its 12th season as the spring home of the White Sox and Dodgers. After pitcher-and-catcher workouts last week, full-squad workouts started this week. New this year is the freshly-paved Ballpark Boulevard extension. Baseball daily at Camelback Ranch continues through March 22. The hometown Arizona Diamondbacks visit Glendale twice, as do the Cubs, Angels and San Francisco Giants. The D-backs play at Camelback Ranch on Saturday, Feb. 29 (Dodgers) and Sunday, March 22 (White Sox). The Cincinnati Reds, Cleveland Indians, Colorado Rockies, Kansas City Royals, Milwaukee Brewers, Oakland Athletics, San Diego Padres, Seattle Mariners and Texas Rangers will visit Glendale. The variety is great news to the likes of Wayd Hawkins, who travels from his home in northern California to Glendale every spring. “I get to interact with the players,” he said, after chatting with Gioloto. “I get to see them before it gets chaotic.” He doesn’t even have a favorite team. “I just love baseball,” he said. “Period.” His daughter, Kelsey, 10, is also a big fan of Spring Training. “I love it,” she said. “I just like talking to the players.” For tickets and more information, visit mlb.com/camelback-ranch or call or call 623-302-5099.

Grand Avenue construction at two intersections through the spring

BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Delays are in store for Grand Avenue travelers. According to the Arizona Department of Transportation, the Grand Avenue (US 60) intersections at Bethany Home Road and Northern Avenue will be restricted for several months as part of an improvement project which started Feb. 12. Crews are extending the westbound Grand Avenue left-turn lanes at each intersection to provide more room for drivers to travel westbound onto each of the cross streets. The intersection restrictions are due to be in place until this summer. Westbound Grand Avenue will be narrowed to two through

lanes and a limited left turn lane at the Bethany Home Road intersection starting at 9 p.m. Wednesday. Eastbound Grand Avenue also will be narrowed to two lanes in the work zone although the left turn lane to eastbound Bethany Home Road will remain open. Similar restrictions were put into place at the Grand Avenue intersection with Northern Avenue starting Tuesday, Feb. 18. According to ADOT, drivers should allow extra travel time while the Grand Avenue improvement project is underway.

New stretch of road promotes business, baseball in Glendale BY ERIC NEWMAN

Glendale Star Staff Writer

Glendale just made it easier for Spring Training fans to travel to and from games — and spend money in the city. Fans and representatives of the Chicago White Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers crowded around a newly-opened stretch of road called “North Ballpark Boulevard” next to Camelback Ranch-Glendale last week to unveil the new street. The road is a 1.6-mile stretch connecting Camelback Road, the ballpark, Loop 101, Westgate and Glendale’s Sports and Entertainment District. Glendale Mayor Jerry Weiers said North Ballpark Boulevard will hold an average of about 13,000 vehicles per day, and likely more on game days. He cited ease of access for fans. “They’ll be able to exit the ballgame, and after the ballgame head toward Glendale, Westgate, Tanger Outlets, Cabelas, all that area over there, instead

of being redirected when they leave toward the west,” Weiers said. White Sox and Chicago Bulls owner Jerry Reinsdorf agreed. “So many of the people who attend our games are from out of town and are spending tourist dollars, so there’s no reason this money shouldn’t be pumped

back into the local economy,” he said. Stan Kasten, co-owner and president of the Dodgers, said he is excited for the business prospects of the road for his team and its fans. “I’m also a consumer, because I live at the other end of this street, and my commute has been cut in half,”

Kasten said. The road was in the plans when the ballpark opened around 12 years ago. However, Weiers said the economy and city funding did not allow Glendale to take the time and effort to do it. Now, that it is open, though, he is looking forward to what it could mean for the city moving forward. As the street just opened, Glendale has not received many reactions. But, when it becomes a fixture for fans traveling to games or just using it to get around Glendale, Weiers is certain the drivers will be pleased. “When the games start here in a few days, and when people start using this road regularly for their every-day drives, I think it’s when we’re going to start hearing people say it’s awesome,” Weiers said. Camelback Ranch opens for Spring Training Saturday, as the White Sox host the Los Angeles Angels. For tickets or information visit mlb.com/camelback-ranch.

ATRIAL FIBRILLATION FREE PATIENT EDUCATIONAL SEMINAR LEARN ABOUT AFIB (The disease), CURRENT AND NEW TREATMENT OPTIONS Atrial Fibrillation or AFIB is a quivering or irregular heartbeat that can lead to blood clots, stroke, heart failure and other heart related complications. At least 2.7 million Americans are living with AFIB. Patients with AFIB are normally treated by a Cardiac Electrophysiologist (EP).

BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Glendale Police arrested Shata Syreeta Johnson, 39, on charges of killing her husband, Timothy Johnson, 55. She allegedly hid his body for days. Glendale Police responded to a home on the 5900 block of Redfield Road, less than a mile from Peoria shops on 59th Avenue. Police said neighbors called 911 to report a woman driving erratically and throwing items from her vehicle Feb. 10. Contacted outside her Glendale home, Johnson told the officers she was “fine,” and her husband was not at home. She stated there was no one else inside the home and she did not need further assistance, police said. Johnson went to a Phoenix Police precinct last Thursday and said she shot her husband outside their home, ac-

cording to Glendale Police. Glendale officers went to the Redfield Road home and located Johnson, deceased inside the vehicle parked in the carport. “He appeared to have been shot once and it was determined he had been dead and left inside the vehicle for several days,” said Jay O’Neill, a police spokesman. Johnson was interviewed by detectives. She allegedly told detectives she shot her husband during an argument, then moved the vehicle to hide her deceased husband’s body from neighbors. She said she remained inside her home for days before going to the police. Police arrested Johnson and charged her with second-degree murder and concealment of a dead body.

Stroke is at least 5 times more likely to occur in patients with atrial ﬁbrillation. Treatments to reduce stroke risk, usually blood thinners, can require close monitoring and carry signiﬁcant risk of bleeding. The left atrial appendage is the portion of the heart where more than 90% of stroke causing clots form. The Watchman™ left atrial appendage closure device is an implant designed to close the left atrial appendage, trapping potential stroke causing clots and, thus, potentially alleviating the future need for blood thinners.

ther by arrest or the death of a suspect, only six of the 2019 Glendale murders were cleared. “Homicides are some of the most complex cases we work and typically involve months and sometimes years of follow-up, so we often see clearances for homicides years after the actual crime,” noted Jay O’Neill, a police spokesman. “These cases also typically involve analysis of a large amount of forensic evidence which takes time.” As an example, O’Neill said Kyle Carnell was shot to death in May of 2015, “and we didn’t make an arrest in that case until 2018.” (Telisha King goes to trial March 5 for Carnell’s murder.) O’Neill also noted the 2019 statistics will not be considered “official” until it is reviewed and published in the FBI’s annual report, not expected to be released for months. He said errors led to slightly inflated numbers in previous years. “They were first noted in 2019 when we noticed inconsistencies in our use of an internal

CDAC proposed funding leades to heated debate BY OCTAVIO SERRANO Glendale Star Staff Writer

A proposal for funding to help low-income residents of Glendale did not go smoothly. The Glendale City Council met Tuesday, Feb. 11 to discuss the Community Development Advisory Committee’s federal funding recommendations, presented by Community Services Director Stephanie Small and Community Revitalization Administrator Matthew Hess. According to the presentation, the CDAC had over 42 applications and had about $2.5 million in requested funds. “Our CDAC has been working diligently over the past couple of months to listen to presentations, gather information and make some decisions regarding recommendations to this council regarding the funding we’ve received,” Small said. Among the recommended funding, Valleylife is an organization requesting $100,000 for Group Home Renovations, which the CDAC proposed meeting in full. Councilwoman Joyce Clark said she was present during the presentations of the applicants. She noted Valleylife was seeking funding for one group home, which serves four people. “I personally have problems awarding money for renovations for any group home,” Clark said. “In my experience, group homes earn their income based upon the number of individuals and they get a monthly stipend. I would think, under those circumstances, they are probably doing quite well and can

afford to make repairs over time by themselves.” In addition, Clark commented on the administrative costs of some of the organizations recommended for funding. “It seems to me like many of these organizations, the administrative costs are very high,” Clark said. “One I remember, their total budget was around $1.5 million annual budget. A little over $530,000 was strictly administrative costs. That’s 33% of their budget.” She asked the presenters to include the information of percentage of administrative costs in future years. Clark also said she disagreed with the proposal to fund Boys and Girls Club Metro Phoenix, Chrysalis Shelter for Victims of Domestic Violence and Homeless Youth Connection. Clark suggested part of the $35,000 should be awarded to Angels on Patrol and the Back to School Clothing Drive. She and others on the council suggested more funding for Central Arizona Shelter Services (CASS). Mayor Jerry Weiers said he opposed removing the funding for Boys and Girls Club Metro Phoenix. “I’ve been there and there’s a lot of kids in that place,” Mayor said. “It helps an awful lot of kids and I wouldn’t be opposed to that portion.” Clark said the organization’s recent partnerships made it sustainable enough and it may not require additional funding. “Mayor, don’t forget they’ve just merged with the Mesa Boys and Girls Club,” Clark said. “They have grown tremendously. They have a well-oiled SEE CDAC PAGE 8

Man killed in Friday night wreck in Litchfield Park BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Ryan Charley, 33, was killed in a two-car wreck Friday evening in Litchfield Park. The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office said Aaron Marcoux, 18, was arrested and charged with manslaughter for causing the crash at Dysart Road and Missouri Avenue. According to the MCSO, Marcoux was traveling more than 40 mph over the posted speed limit at the time of the crash. One of the two passengers of the car Marcoux was driving stated they were traveling “100ish” just before they crashed. Marcoux allegedly admitted to driving at least 70 mph in the area where the posted speed limit is 45 mph. According to the MCSO, Marcoux was evaluated by a drug recognition expert and was found not to have been impaired. He and two passengers in his vehicle were transported with non-life-threat-

City manager highlights some Glendale projects BY TOM SCANLON

Glendale Star Managing Editor

While many are excited about the new things in Glendale over the past few years, from expansions at Westgate Entertainment District to Desert Diamond Casino West Valley to major production facilities, others are not so much. Some feel all the growth is just causing more traffic and crowding. To them, Kevin Phelps has a simple message: Look at your tax bill. “Over the last four years, on the city portion of property taxes, we have decreased the levy rate each of the last four years,” said Phelps, Glendale’s city manager. “A big part of the reason we can do this is economic development. Retail sales tax at places like Arrowhead Mall and Westgate allow us to provide services to citizens to have a good quality of life.” Phelps said city property tax on a $200,000 home in Glendale is less than $15 month. And, he noted, outsiders are helping fund Glendale’s police, fire and other services. “With economic development, the vast majority of tax revenue is to help us provide absolutely the best services. The extra benefit is this is coming from the sports and entertainment district, so a significant amount is from non-Glendale residents,” Phelps said. “People from all over the Valley travel into the sports and entertainment district, and they’re helping the local residents.” Phelps also said there is an indirect benefit for Glendale residents: “Improving the 101 corridor is improving

The city has a revenue-sharing agreement with ASM, which runs the arena as well as stadiums and concert venues around the country. “The current fiscal forecast for fiscal year 2019-20 anticipates net operating income will exceed the budgeted amount by over $330,000,” Phelps told city council. Six months into the fiscal year, Phelps said Gila River “is on track to break the all-time number of concerts hosted in (Gila River Arena), which is 26.” Arizona Rattlers football games are also expected to add revenues, he said.

earned just under $5 million from its Gila River Arena revenue-sharing agreement. A busy Gila River Arena is also great for nearby businesses, Phelps said. “The arena is a major generator of revenue for dozens and dozens of restaurant operations within Westgate and the greater entertainment district,” he said. Phelps said revenues at Arrowhead and Westgate malls “are very healthy.” Phelps was criticized in a recent Arizona Republic story, which stated he did not tell the council a family member was involved in a contract with an energy services company. Phelps’ stepson, Brian Fisher, is director of supply chain management for McKinstry’s Pacific Northwest construction operations in Washington state. “My stepson wasn’t involved in the project,” Phelps told the Glendale Star. “There was no conflict of interest. The only thing that happened was I called him and asked him who the contact was so I would have the right person to talk to. My son had no involvement.

Did you know that 30-60% of drivers report having back pain at some point in their life? Driving for long periods of time exposes the body to many different forces such as acceleration, sudden stops, and most notably vibrations from the road – and it especially affects those of us who drive larger heavy vehicles for hours at a time! So what do you do about it? Even just adding exercise into your routine 2-3 times a week will help strengthen your back muscles, release tension and help you maintain a healthy posture. Cardio exercises like cycling, walking and swimming are great for overall fitness, and weights are perfect for improving muscle strength. If your back pain is severe, making you fearful of participating in exercise in case it makes your back worse, you can jumpstart your recovery with physical therapy. Seeking help from a physical therapist instead of resting and taking pain killers could give you the permanent relief that you are after and help you return to living your life, TODAY!

Towne plans to develop the area into a gated community. “We’re going through all the legal steps requiring it to happen,” Phelps said. “There will be two public hearings.

Legislation targets ‘social promotion’ in schools BY HOWARD FISCHER Capitol Media Services

State lawmakers are moving to end “social promotion.’’ On a voice vote last week, the House gave preliminary approval to legislation requiring students be held back if they don’t meet the required criteria. It also would mandate high school teachers fail students who don’t meet the course requirements. The move came over the objections of Democrats who questioned whether it would do more harm than good. “Once you hold a student back you increase the likelihood they will drop out,’’ said Rep. Reginald Bolding, D-Laveen. And Rep. Geraldine “Gerae” Peten, D-Goodyear, said it would amount to “destroying the lives’’ of students because the failure of the state to properly fund education resuling in many classrooms staffed by uncertified teachers. “The state should be accountable for fully funding education, filling all of those teacher vacancies with certified, highly qualified teachers, and thereby giving the students everything they possibly need to succeed,’’ she said. Rep. Joanne Osborne, R-Goodyear, who said she hasn’t made a final decision on the issue, provided a more personal perspective. She told the story of her son whose

reading skills were delayed because he had hearing problems as a child. Yet his fourth-grade teacher sought to promote him to the fifth grade even though he was reading at a second-grade level. Osborne said she had to fight with school officials to have him retained. She told colleagues it worked, with her son now a graduate of Northern Arizona University. “It’s not about the money,’’ stated Rep. John Fillmore, R-Apache Junction, the architect of the legislation. “What this bill does is when there are kids who fail to meet the standards it gives them a second opportunity to grasp they need to know to succeed in life,’’ Fillmore said. “It’s also going to take and give our kids a head’s up there are no more social promotions, no more easy rides, there is responsibility in this world,’’ he continued. “And those kids will be given a chance with this bill.’’ Fillmore said the way he sees things, the education practices of the last 40 years are not working. “Our education system is declining,’’ he said. “Our children are not being educated,’’ Fillmore continued. “And self-esteem programs sociologically people

want to promote are not the thing.’’ The answer, he said, is making kids take responsibility for their own learning. “They are like sponges wanting to learn.’’ Rep. Isela Blanc, D-Tempe, criticized the hard-and-fast rule the legislation would create. She said it presumes teachers —and parents — cannot be trusted to determine what is best on a case-by-case basis. Fillmore doesn’t see it this way. “It enables the teacher to have another opportunity for a kid who is not achieving the standards necessary for him to be successful in life to be given a second chance to learn what he needs to know,’’ he said. And Fillmore said it provides an opportunity for teachers to identify the kids with problems. Rep. Mark Finchem, R-Oro Valley, said he was surprised foes of the legislation were concerned students would

have to repeat a class. “Well, if you stop and think about it, if they didn’t learn it the first time they probably need to be taught the same thing again,’’ he said. “We are setting them up for failure,’’ agreed Rep. Michelle Udall, D-Mesa about social promotion. She said it makes no sense to try to teach a child high school algebra if he or she can’t do fractions. The legislation, which needs a final House vote before going to the Senate, does have an escape clause of sorts. It says exceptions to the no-promotion rule can be made if the student is a “limited English proficient student’’ who has had fewer than two years of English language instruction if the teacher and parent agree promotion is “appropriate.’’ Exceptions also can be made for students in special education programs if the parent and teaching team assigned to a child agree.

Researchers developing additional test for coronavirus BY HANNAH FOOTE AND MADISON ATKINSON Cronkite News

Scientists in Flagstaff are working to develop a test doctors and hospitals could use to diagnose coronavirus, which could help medical professionals respond to the global outbreak more quickly. For now, the only test available in the U.S. was developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and medical professionals send samples to approved labs to determine whether a patient’s illness is coronavirus. Researchers at the Translational Genomics Research Institute, known as TGen, are hoping to create a test to be more broadly implemented, by making it available to hospitals and doctors to conduct their own testing. “We want to make sure we’re ready to be able to respond,” said Dr. David Engelthaler, director of the northern division of TGen. TGen North is using genetic infor-

mation to map the RNA of the respiratory virus to determine whether the patient has a strain, what strain they have, and whether there is a mutation present, Engelthaler said. The novel coronavirus, identified as COVID-19, was first detected in China in late December.

To date, only the CDC’s test is being used, and the Food and Drug Administration issued an emergency use authorization Feb. 4 to allow more CDC-qualified labs to test samples “This continues to be an evolving situation, and the ability to distribute this diagnostic test to qualified labs is a critical step forward in protecting the public health,” FDA Commissioner Stephen M. Hahn said in a press release. With more than 40,000 confirmed cases globally, there are 13 novel coronavirus cases in the United States, as

of Monday. TGen’s test is in the approval process at the Food and Drug Administration, which typically takes months to complete – however, the FDA has a shorter approval process for public health emergencies. For use in other countries, however, the process of approval is expected to take longer. “If we’re going to work with partners in other parts of the world, we’re going to have to work with their own regulatory agencies,” Engelthaler said. TGen isn’t the only company racing to develop a test: Biotech company Novacyt is also seeking emergency use approval from the FDA for its test and researchers in Hong Kong claim they have a test that gives a diagnosis in 40 minutes. Public Health England also launched a test Monday for 12 laboratories in the United Kingdom. TGen researchers previously assisted in developing tests for other strains of coronavirus, including SARS and MERS.

National debt is sugar water for our economy BY BOB MUSSELWHITE Glendale Star Guest Writer

My name is Bob Musselwhite and I am running for the U. S. Congress as a Democrat. I want to thank the Glendale Star for running these comments expanding from my platform. This commentary involves the planned increase in the national debt contained in the proposed budget. I am opposed to any further increase no matter the party in power. At the end of President Obama’s last budget, according to figures, and calculations vary, the national debt stood at approximately $20.24 trillion. This budget extended about 10

months into President Trump’s term in office. Now, a little after two years in control, by this president the national deficit has increased to $23.2 trillion and continues to climb. This increase is not in response to any national emergency or reason such as the threat of collapsing banks. Now we have a budget being proposed by this President who continues to increase this deficit as if it is normal, spending money we do not have. This budget will continue an economy on credit while giving lip service to cutting expenses by reducing the safety net of those who are least likely to

have any say in the matter. The organic problem with the costs of our government is too many public functions have been turned over to more expensive privatization and opportunities for corruption. Privatization requires profit to start with. Smaller government is not necessarily less expensive government if functions are privatized. The ongoing increase in national debt must be immediately addressed by returning to a broader progressive tax bracket requiring the very rich to pay their share. We must then cancel expensive privatized contracts and begin to reduce costs by bringing services back “in house” within the government. This is a pragmatic solution. Ideology is almost never pragmatic and it is certainly not related to common sense. The ideology of Milton Friedman, in this case, has proven to be incorrect. Why does it matter? Currently, interest rates are very low. I would call the rates abnormally low, so there is not

much of a pinch on our treasury/taxes. This will change when it becomes necessary to cool an overheated economy by raising interest rates. At that time as a nation, these higher rates will produce limited resources to address ongoing national needs. In addition, with this debt, we are putting our children and their children in a straight jacket when it comes to addressing the concerns of their day. A very possible day of reckoning may lead to the devaluation of our dollar that would destroy savings accounts and pensions. We need to avoid this situation by stopping this increase in the debt now and by adopting as a national goal the idea of paying it down to a more manageable level. National debt is sugar water for our economy. It is not nourishing or sustainable.

Cactus League fans near and far spend over $300 million BY CHRISTOPHER BOAN Glendale Star Staff Writer

A springtime rite of passage for baseball fans returns to the Valley with the dawning of the 2020 Cactus League. The 15-team league, which runs through the end of March, brings Major League Baseball competition to 10 ﬁelds in the region. The games technically don’t count in the year-end standings, but make a huge impact on the state’s economy, according to ASU’s Daniel Marburger. Marburger, a clinical professor in the W.P. Carey School of Business, said the league has a unique impact unlike any other sporting event in the region. “It’s a little bit different than trying to estimate the economic impact of, let’s say, the Super Bowl, which is people coming in from the outside to go to the game, they spend some money here for the weekend and then they go back, because with the Cactus League, you have people who are retirees, snowbirds, who have chosen Arizona, chosen Phoenix, because it’s where the Cubs play,” Marburger says. “Maybe they would have retired in Florida, or maybe they’d be snowbirds in Florida if the Cubs were playing in Florida. “So, it’s not just visitors who came up for an event and then went home, or even a better example would be let’s

say the Arizona Cardinals. Well most people going to a Cardinals game, live in Phoenix, around the Phoenix area, and therefore you really don’t count them, because they’re not coming in from the outside. But when you have permanent residents or semi-permanent residents who have actually chosen Phoenix because of Cactus League baseball.” The research done by Marburger and his colleagues at the W.P. Carey School of Business backs up his point. The college’s 2018 study found the Cactus League brought in $315.7 mil-

lion in economic impact, with $122.6 million being spent on bars and restaurants, while $89.8 million was spent on lodging and accommodations. What stands out for Cactus League Baseball Association Executive Director Bridget Binsbacher is the impact the exhibition has on the communities hosting the league’s 10 stadiums. “I’ve been focusing on really trying to understand the different models existing in all of our spring training cities,” said Binsbacher, also of Peoria City Council. “They’re all different and their impact on the community,

their relationship with the community, with the team, they’re all unique to one another.” The league, which was founded in 1947, has entrenched itself in Grand Canyon State sporting lore, with generations of fans ﬂocking to the venues each year. ASU’s economic impact study found the league drew 1,737,975 fans for the 2019 season, across 220 games, averaging out at 7,900 people per contest. Leading the way in 2019, in terms of attendance, were the Chicago Cubs, who drew 13,939 fans per game, a .4% increase over 2018. The Arizona Diamondbacks (10,628) and Los Angeles Dodgers (10,326) were the other franchises to draw more than 10,000 fans per game in 2019. The San Diego Padres saw the largest year-over-year increase, in terms of per-game attendance, gaining 12%, to 6,704 fans per contest. The Dodgers and Padres play home games at Glendale’s Camelback Ranch. The league’s ability to draw in fans from across the country year after year is important for a number of reasons, according to Binsbacher. Mainly, attendance is vital, as the league itself is a nonproﬁt organization

New faces help theater tap out ‘Anything Goes’ BY SARA EDWARDS

Glendale Star Staff Writer

As a part of its MasterWorks program, TheaterWorks in Peoria is setting sail with the classic production of “Anything Goes.” “Anything Goes” is a classic musical telling the timeless boy-meets-girl, love-at-ﬁrst-sight tale, with plenty of catchy songs and swift dancing. Stowaway Billy Crocker falls in love with lovely Hope Harcourt until he learns she is betrothed to another man. “Anything Goes” is a classic musical production with its dance ensembles and unforgettable music score by inimitable composer Cole Porter. “There’s some mistaken identity and a whole lot of tap dancing,” said Chris Hamby, artistic director for TheaterWorks. “I think what keeps it so classy is Cole Porter’s music. It’s just timeless.” For this production, TheaterWorks has brought on well-known names and faces from around the Valley. David Dickenson, an actor with Phoe-

nix Theatre Company, is performing with TheaterWorks for the ﬁrst time as Billy Crocker. Molly Lajoie, who is

playing Reno Sweeny, has worked with TheaterWorks as well as ASU’s musical theater department. “The last couple of years, TheaterWorks has seen Molly as a director and so I believe this is the ﬁrst time Molly has worked with us as an actor,” Hamby said. “There are a lot of new faces to us.” Hamby wanted to develop collaborations and invite new people into the TheaterWorks family. One of his new invites was to the director of the musical, Michael Kary. Kary teaches acting and playwriting at Grand Canyon University. He has

performed in theaters around the valley like the Arizona Jewish Theatre Company and the Actor’s Theatre of Phoenix. “Chris Hamby has been reaching out to GCU hoping to develop a relationship with us,” Kary said. “I direct a lot with (GCU) and I’m primarily an actor in the Valley with Phoenix Theatre Company. I direct a lot but haven’t directed at the community level.” Kary said he’s excited to have been able to work alongside actors and performers he’s respected and admired throughout the Valley. “I’m a huge fan of their work so it’s been a real privilege to work alongside them,” Hamby said. “Molly moves better than anybody. David is such a smart and caring actor. It’s great to work alongside them and coach them and cheer them on in an environment where they can work.” “Anything Goes” opens at TheaterWorks at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 21. Tickets start at $39 for adults, $34 for seniors and $18 for students. For more information, visit TheaterWorks.org.

Sleep plays an important role in maintaining a healthy heart BY TERI ELKINS

Glendale Star Guest Writer

Most of us are aware proper nutrition, exercise and maintaining a healthy weight play a key role in heart health, but what about sleep? Proper sleep habits are paramount to a healthy heart. Not getting enough sleep as well as getting too much sleep, increases your risk of mortality significantly. In addition, getting good quality sleep is equally as important. According to the National Sleep Foundation, more than one in three American adults say they don’t get the recommended amount of sleep, which is seven to eight hours per night. The American Heart Association states an irregular sleep pattern (one varying from the seven to nine hours nightly) is linked to a host of cardiovascular risks, including obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes and coronary artery disease. Adults not getting the recommended hours of sleep on most nights may have higher levels of stress hormones, which may trigger anxiety and increase inflammation in the body. Inflammation is a key player in cardiovascular disease. Additionally, sleep apnea (when you stop breathing for short amounts of time) affects how much oxygen your body gets while you sleep. This lack of oxygen increases your risk for high blood pressure, heart attack and stroke. Insomnia (trouble falling asleep or staying asleep) is also linked to high blood pressure and heart disease. Even one or two nights of insufficient sleep can affect your system. On the other hand, there is some evidence getting too much sleep also plays a role in heart problems. Getting too much sleep (more than nine hours per night) can cause calcium buildup

in the artery walls leading to heart failure and stroke. As we age, our sleep patterns change. Many older adults have a hard time falling asleep or staying asleep. We also spend less time in a deep sleep which can cause us to wake more often. This can be for a variety of reasons, including the need to use the restroom, taking certain medications, anxiety, discomfort, or pain from other medical problems. Below are seven tips to help you get better sleep: • Stick to a regular sleep schedule. Try to go to bed at the same time each night and get up at the same time each morning. • Do not take naps during the day. • Get enough physical activity during the day. Try not to exercise within a few hours of bedtime. • Avoid stimulants such like caffeine (coffee, tea, cola drinks, chocolate) for at least three or four hours before bed. • Avoid too much stimulation such as violent TV shows or computer games before sleep. • Avoid artificial light, especially within a few hours of bedtime. Use a blue light filter on your computer or smartphone. • Keep your bedroom cool, dark and quiet. Sleep plays a key role in good overall health, maintaining healthy brain function, weight control, energy, immune function, emotional stability, heart health and so much more. Make sleep a priority starting today!

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.

F1gur471v3ly 5p34k1ng…Do you see what I see? I like to call my weekly article ”Equipping People for Life,” not just church life. My desire is to see you elevating, getting better all the time. Perhaps the greatest lesson I have learned in life is what I’m going to write about today. It’s called the Principle of Recognition. Believe me, this principle is a life lifter and a difference-maker. The tragedy is not many people know about it. I will start with a little word teaser showing you the power of an organ you have inside of your head called a brain. If you can read this, you have a strong mind. Your mind moved you from cognition to “re-cognition.” The teaser is called F1gur471v3ly 5p34k1ng. 7H15 M3554G3 53RV35 7O PR0V3 H0W 0UR M1ND5 C4N D0 4M4Z1NG 7H1NG5! 1MPR3551V3 7H1NG5! 1N 7H3 B3G1NN1NG 17 WA5 H4RD BU7 N0W, 0N 7H15 LIN3 Y0UR M1ND 1S R34D1NG 17 4U70M471C4LLY W17H 0U7 3V3N 7H1NK1NG 4B0U7 17, B3 PROUD! 0NLY C3R741N P30PL3 C4N R3AD 7H15.

your mind is adjusting from not seeing the message to seeing the message. God gave us a brain and mind so we could not just see but understand. Let me say it this way, it’s one thing to have knowledge about something. It’s quite another to have an understanding of something. With understanding, you receive illumination on the ‘why the what’ of something. You don’t just know about it. You know it. The Aha moment takes you from knowledge to application. You get it! Many times, we can see something but not see it. Many times, we can hear something but not hear it. Oh, we see it physically or hear it physically. However, we miss what we need to understand what we hear or see. Henry David Thoreau said, “It’s not what you look at that matters, it is what you see.” Here’s the Principle of Recognition

for you. Author Mike Murdock wrote about this principle years ago. Whatever you don’t recognize, you don’t appreciate. Whatever you don’t appreciate, you don’t celebrate. Whatever you don’t celebrate, may eventually exit your life. You could also insert whomever to this principle. Here’s what I am concerned about for all of us. Let me personalize it. There could be something or someone you are not seeing in your life today and it could be costing you dearly. Do you know how divorces happen? A divorce is when one spouse or both spouses stop recognizing each other and revert to just cognizing each other. When they ﬁrst met, it was a revelation, an aha; they recognized each other. But over time, the trials, and the ups and downs of marriage, familiarity, and unmet expectations crept it and they lost their recognition. Now all that is left is cognition of one another. As they say, love is grand, divorce is one-hundred grand. Do you see that? Here’s the principle of recognition in action in marriage. Who you don’t recognize, you don’t appreciate. Whoever you don’t appreciate, you don’t celebrate. Whoever you don’t celebrate may eventually exit your life…and it will cost you, your kin and your community dearly. In Bible times, the disciples walked with Jesus on the road to Emmaus yet didn’t recognize Him. They had cognition but they did not have re-cognition. Why? You rarely see what you are not looking for. Knowing how to recognize what others only cognize could change your life, just ask Zacchaeus. If you have never heard of Zacchaeus, he was the short, greedy taxman, disdained by the people of the time, and climbed into a tree to see Jesus as He walked by. The crowd cognized Jesus but Zacchaeus recognized Jesus. Suddenly, F1gur471v3ly 5p34k1ng became Figuratively Speaking for

Zacchaeus. It’s one thing to have sight. It’s another thing to have insight. Lesson: When you recognize the Lord, He recognizes you, no matter where you are presently or what you have formerly done. Too many people are not aware of the Principle of Recognition yet most all of life operates on this principle. Recognition can release you from your past so you can live in the present in order to prosper in the future. It impacts your personal life, spiritual life, family life, business life, and community life. Recognition changes everything. Work with this principle, not against this principle. So how do people move from the ‘natural’ of cognition (knowledge) to the “supernatural” of recognition (understanding)? How do you move from sight to insight? You need to become a seeker. Jesus said in Matthew 7:7, “Seek and you shall ﬁnd...” When you ﬁnd, you move from sight to insight. Let me summarize why this principle is imperative to be aware of. (1) Some of the greatest gifts of your life may have not yet been recognized. (2) God probably put something close to you and perhaps you are not seeing. (3) Failure to recognize the gift, person, miracle, circumstance, situation or provision could be costing you incredibly. (4) Anything unrecognized by you remains uncelebrated by you. (5) Quality of life and a better life require recognition and awareness. (6) Anything you refuse to celebrate (intentional or “clueless”) may eventually exit your life. The best way to make your dreams come true is to wake up...to God and the Principle of Recognition. More on the practicalities of this next week.

SMart Center clear for takeoﬀ at Sunrise Mountain

BY OCTAVIO SERRANO Glendale Star Staff Writer

The Peoria Uniﬁed School District held a ribbon cutting ceremony for the $1.7 million Sunrise Mountain Art Center (SMart Center) Tuesday, Feb. 11. The renovated building opened Jan. 6 and is part of Sunrise Mountain High School. The SMart Center is an opportunity for children to expand their arts education. Danielle Airey, a spokeswoman for the PUSD, said, “In our district, we have a strong focus, commitment and dedication to arts education.” Over 100 were present for the ribbon cutting. The ceremony began with attendees reciting the pledge of allegiance, which was followed by a presentation by the school’s orchestra. A few students watched from a platform. The recently renovated building resembles a large cylinder with an elevator that takes guests and students to the main ﬂoor. On the walls, there is a large mural that shows the planet and technology. The SMart Center will serve rough-

cused on arts education,” Airey said. “Arts education really has always been a really critical component that helps to shape the whole child.”

Airey said the building was originally built in 1986 to be the center of space innovation and activity center. “Many students in our district would take tours through this building and certainly use it as a space of learning,” Airey said. “Now it will be a center of art.” Airey explained the district reacquired the building through land-swap agreements. The project took roughly six months to complete, Airey said, and it is seven months ahead of schedule. The project cost $1.7 million Airey thanked the school’s community members. “We want them to know about how the community really came together to bring this project and this space to life, to reinvigorate it and how it will continue to serve the students and the community for years to come,” Airey said. The SMart Center is at 21200 N. 83rd Avenue, Peoria.

Become a CASA information session

BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Join CASA of Maricopa County and Voices for CASA Children at an information session to learn about becoming a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 20, at Glendale Community College, Physical Science Room 176, 6000 W. Olive Ave. The CASA role is a volunteer that advocates on behalf of abused and neglected children living in the foster care system. Children with a CASA volunteer are more likely to receive services, spend less time in the child welfare system

and are less likely to return to foster care. An advocate can make an immediate impact on a child’s life. You can’t change a child’s past, but you can change a child’s future. At this information session, you’ll view a short presentation and have questions answered by program staff. Please note: the presentation begins promptly at 5:30 p.m.; it is advised to arrive early. For more information, call 480-6854888, email info@voicesforcasachildren.org or visit voicesforcasachildren. org/.
