THE VOICE OF BUSINESS
Several months after passing a city ordinance banning cellphone use while driving, Glendale city councilmembers decided to switch to using the new state law language when citing drivers. The main difference between the city and state ordinances is that the state law allows drivers to use their phones while stopped for train crossings. Councilmembers ultimately gave consensus to adopt the recently passed legislation, though numerous questions were asked on how to handle the change. “If we change our language to mirror what is coming into effect by the state, can
we enforce immediately or do we have to wait (until January 2021)?” Cholla Councilwoman Lauren Tolmachoff asked at the meeting. “If we change our language, we can enforce now,” answered Police Chief Rick St. John. “I think we should adopt the (state’s) language, but continue enforcing,” Tolmachoff followed. Passed in April, HB 2318 prohibits drivers from using any kind of wireless communication device while driving — whether talking, texting, typing or browsing social media sites — unless the device is in hands-free mode. The new law not only applies to cell-

phones, but any kind of portable wireless communication or standalone electronic device. Drivers are subject to a warning, but tickets will not be issued until January 2021. The Glendale ordinance, passed in January, also bans cellphone use behind the wheel, with the exception of those using a hands-free function. Unlike the state legislation, Glendale’s ordinance would not allow drivers to use devices while stopped at a red light or train tracks. Under the city’s ordinance, violators would be fined $250 for each offense, while the state will charge first-time of-
BY DARRELL JACKSON The city of Glendale has found its new assistant city manager. Former budget and finance director Vicki Rios replaces Rob Sweeney, who served as interim assistant manager since March. Sweeney assumed the role after previous Assistant City Manager Tom Duensing left in January. Rios will serve alongside another assistant city manager, Chris Anaradian. “I am excited and will be working very closely with (City Manager Kevin Phelps) and the city council on any issues related to the departments I will oversee,” Rios said. “I will also be work-

ing closely with him on many other issues and citywide projects and initiatives.” As assistant city manager, Rios will lead five major city departments: community services; human resources; innovation and technology; public facilities, recreation and special events; and budget and finance. She will manage a $119 million budget and 272 full-time employees. “(Rios) has consistently demonstrated that she has the expertise, values and leadership needed to help lead Glendale,” Phelps said. “She is a strategic leader with a wealth of experience managing complex departments and projects within large organizations and we are fortunate to have her as part of our Glendale team.” Phelps said Rios’ proven leadership in finance and other areas will add to the city manager’s department, and that she was the perfect choice among over 170 applicants. “Rios is a proven leader who brings a strong background in finance, an indepth knowledge of our organization and a passion for improving the city and the community including her experience with the city of Phoenix as deputy finance director as well as various roles in Peoria,” Phelps said. “She brings a wealth of experience managing complex departments and projects within large organizations.” Since assuming the role of budget and finance director in May 2016, Rios has been in charge of helping create the now nearly $750 billion budget and helping the city reach its goal of having a $50 million contingency. She said while she is excited to start assisting Phelps with numerous city projects, financial stability remains one of the key issues she faces. “Maintaining the city’s financial stability is No. 1,” Rios said. “That as well as improving citizen engagement and their customer service experience, as well as addressing the city’s infrastructure needs.” Phelps added that Sweeney was a great bridge after Duensing left the city in January. “(Sweeney) has been terrific, and he led the efforts for us to modify and enhance our audit program,” Phelps said. “I have asked Rob to stay on for awhile longer to help as we are making that transition. He was brought in to help keep things moving forward while we went through a more than three-month recruitment process.”

Rios will continue to work closely with the budget and finance department, and Phelps added that he has appointed Lissette Camacho as the department’s interim director to ensure a smooth transition. “Budget and finance does a fantastic job and there is a solid team in place to continue the important functions that are expected daily,” Phelps said. “However, we expect all our departments to continually improve, so (Rios) will assist budget and finance in this goal.” Rios said Camacho is a perfect choice to replace her, and she hopes to ensure a smooth transition the way Duensing assisted her when she took over budget and finance. “Camacho will do an excellent job as the interim budget and finance director, and I expect to work closely with her and her team,” Rios said. “I learned a lot (from Duensing) when he was finance director and while he was assistant city manager. He is a wonderful leader, and I am honored to follow in his footsteps.” Rios has a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of California — Irvine, as well as a post-baccalaureate certificate in accountancy and a Master of Business Administration from ASU. She is a certified public accountant and a member and past president of the Government Finance Officers’ Association of Arizona. Rios has been a Glendale resident for 34 years and has been married to her husband, Rafael, for 38 years. Together, they have four children and eight grandchildren.

We need to let the public know that we are not issuing warnings, but issuing violations. – Mayor Jerry Weiers fenders between $75 and $149, and subsequent offenders $150 to $250. Under the state’s decision, the city can continue with its hands-free ordinance or change to the state’s law immediately. In January 2021, all cities must begin to follow the state’s law. “This is something we don’t need confusion on with the public, and I am encouraged that the Legislature after a decade has shown that this is important,” Mayor Jerry Weiers said. “I do believe we should adopt the state’s language immediately and maybe take it one step further and educate the citizens, because if the goal is to stop texting and driving we need a strong campaign to let people know we are enforcing and not doing what the state is … We need to let the public know that we are not issuing warnings, but issuing violations.”

Former youth coach sentenced to 25 years in prison BY DARRELL JACKSON Glendale Star Staff Writer
A former baseball coach was sentenced to 25 years in prison May 24 after pleading guilty to sexual conduct with a number of young boys on his former teams. Richard Allen Gallegos, 53, was arrested in July in connection with assaults on boys who were 11 to 14 years old at the time of the incidents. He pleaded guilty in April to several charges of attempted sexual conduct with a minor. He originally faced additional charges of molestation, sexual conduct and attempted sexual conduct with a minor, though these accusations were dismissed in his plea deal. At his sentencing, victims and family members spoke out against Gallegos. “Gallegos is a man who has done unspeakable things to me,” one victim said to the court. “He molested me and is a horrible man.” Parents also asked the judge not to allow Gallegos to remain in prison. “I was vulnerable and my children were vulnerable,” one parent said while

addressing the court. “I ask that you give him the maximum sentence you can and never allow him to do this to another child.” Gallegos was the subject of a Chandler investigation as early as 2009, after a number of children accused him of inappropriate behavior. Detectives, however, said there was not enough evidence to charge him of those crimes. In 2009, Gallegos was an assistant coach of a club baseball team in Ahwatu-
kee and volunteered as a baseball coach at Seton Catholic Preparatory High School in Chandler until early 2011. He was also a volunteer coach in Glendale years ago, although no accusations have been made from athletes in the city. In June 2018, a former player on the club team who is now 21 years old contacted Chandler police and alleged multiple sexual encounters with Gallegos when he was between 11 and 14 years old. A second former player came forward with accusations as well, and an investigation was opened in late 2010. Police began investigating that month by interviewing players from the team, but no sexual activity with Gallegos was reported in initial interviews. On July 10, one of the original accusers in connection with police called Gallegos, who on the phone discussed touching the player on multiple occasions. Gallegos was arrested in mid-July and admitted to officers he was the person on the phone, but denied inappropriate contact with any of his players. The Roman Catholic Diocese of Phoenix confirmed in a statement that Gal-
legos was a volunteer coach at the school between 2009 and 2011. Immediately after Gallegos’ arrest, Roman Catholic Dioceses spokesman Robert DeFrancesco released a statement, and said, “Our Catholic Schools Office and Seton Catholic Preparatory are cooperating with the police investigation as we seek to learn more about this situation. Chandler police do not have any reason to believe that the crimes were committed at the school. Anyone who has been a victim of abuse or who may have information concerning these allegations is encouraged to call the Chandler Police Department.” One of the original victims believess there may be more victims who have not come forward. At the time of his arrest Gallegos was trying to start a youth volleyball program in the Valley. “I was very into baseball and he said he could help my baseball career,” the victim said. “The decision to come forward took me over eight years to even talk about what he had done to me. “Hopefully my discussing what happened will bring more victims to come forward.”

Representatives argue over sex abuse legislation BY HOWARD FISCHER Capitol Media Services
A key House lawmaker is demanding an apology from Sen. Paul Boyer over the tactics the Phoenix Republican has used to push his legislation giving victims of child sex abuse more time to sue their assailants. Rep. Anthony Kern, R-Glendale, lashed out at Boyer recently for suggesting that if fellow Republicans do not support his proposal the GOP will be seen as “covering for sexual predators.” “That’s absurd,” Kern told Capitol Media Services. “I think he owes us an apology.” Boyer, for his part, told Capitol Media Services that Kern shouldn’t hold his breath waiting for him to say he’s sorry. He said Kern — and some of his fellow Republicans — earned the insult by blocking his plan by saying they have to consider not only the rights of victims but also the rights of those who are sued, including organizations and institutions that have hired the alleged predators. “If Anthony Kern can explain to me where there’s a constitutional right to protect businesses, then we can talk,” he said. That leaves Boyer with his plan to expand the time victims have to sue, on which he has been unable to get a vote, and Kern supporting an alternative that Boyer considers little more than window dressing. The stalemate — Boyer’s word for it — complicates efforts to take Arizona out of the category as being one of the worst states for victims of child sex abuse, at least as far as being able to sue their assailants. Current law says the right to sue ends on the person’s 20th birthday. It also throws a monkey wrench into adoption of an $11.8 billion state budget. Boyer and Sen. Heather Carter, R-Cave Creek, said they will not vote

for the spending plan if the proposal to expand the opportunity for victims to sue does not get a vote. And without their support there are not enough Senate Republicans to secure approval. The battle comes down to how much time beyond someone’s 20th birthday — the current state law — victims should have to sue. Boyer originally sought to allow new cases to be brought within seven years of someone realizing they have been victimized, defined in statute as reporting the incident to a health professional. He said there is research to show that the average age for reporting such crimes is about 48. Kern, by contrast, is backing a proposal by House Speaker Rusty Bowers to extend the age of filing, but only to 30 and not beyond, no matter when they discover they have been victimized. That is the bill he shepherded through the Rules Committee after refusing to allow victims to testify. Boyer came back with what he said is a compromise: A cutoff at age 35 — but with a one-year window after the bill takes effect to allow new lawsuits by those for whom the time to file already has passed. Kern is not interested. “All of us, Republicans and Democrats, are for helping victims,” he said. But Kern doubled down on his prior statements that the Boyer measure is less about victims and more about profits for lawyers. “I do not trust, personally, attorneys out there,” he said, saying that it is really law firms and not victims that are behind the legislation. Boyer called Kern’s objections “disingenuous.” Kern’s opposition to Boyer’s proposal is not the only problem with coming up with a resolution of the question of how much time victims should have to sue. Sen. Eddie Farnsworth, R-Gilbert, said he, too, will not support the compromise Boyer is offering.

Glendale native serves aboard U.S. Navy warship BY LT. JAKE JOY
Navy Office of Community Outreach
Seaman Lucy Lukeman, a Glendale native, knew she wanted to travel, and figured that financially serving in the Navy would be a good way to do it. Now, just a year and a half later and a world away, Lukeman serves aboard one of the Navy’s most advanced amphibious ships at Fleet Activities Sasebo, patrolling one of the world’s busiest maritime regions as part of U.S. 7th Fleet. “It’s a little bit difficult, mostly because of the time zone difference from home. Most of the time it’s either late at night or early in the morning at home and it’s inconvenient to talk,” she said. “But off days are nice, and the chain of command is pretty good.” Lukeman, a 2017 graduate of Deer Valley High School, is an operations specialist aboard the forward-deployed amphibious assault ship USS Wasp in Sasebo, Japan. “We’re responsible for tracking and monitoring other ships to ensure we don’t collide,” Lukeman said. She credits her success in the Navy to lessons learned since trekking out from Glendale. “Remember the 12th General Order: the chief is always right,” she said. “It basically means listen to your chief. You learn to respect what the senior people are telling you.” U.S. 7th Fleet spans more than 124 million square kilometers, stretching from the International Date Line to the India/Pakistan border, and from the Ku-

world’s crude oil passing through the region, the United States has historic and enduring interests in this part of the world. The Navy’s presence in Sasebo is part of that longstanding commitment. “The Navy is forward-deployed to provide security and strengthen relationships in a free and open Indo-Pacific. It’s not just the ships and aircraft that have shown up to prevent conflict and promote peace,” said Vice Adm. Phil Sawyer, commander, U.S. 7th Fleet. “It is, and will continue to be, our people who define the role our Navy plays around the world — people who’ve made a choice and have the will and strength of character to make a difference.” Wasp, one of the Navy’s Seaman Lucy Lukeman is a 2017 graduate of Deer Valley High most advanced amphibiSchool.

I would recommend service. It helps you prepare for your future and you get to see a lot of places. It’s been positive overall. – Seaman Lucy Lukeman Serving in the Navy means Lukeman is part of a world that is taking on new importance in America’s focus on rebuilding military readiness, strengthening alliances and reforming business practices in support of the National Defense Strategy. A key element of the Navy the nation needs is tied to the fact that America is a maritime nation, and that the nation’s prosperity is tied to the ability to operate freely on the world’s oceans. More than 70% of the earth’s surface is covered by water, 80% of the world’s population lives close to a coast and 90% of all global trade by volume travels by sea. “Our priorities center on people, capabilities and processes, and will be achieved by our focus on speed, value, results and partnerships,” Secretary of the Navy Richard V. Spencer said. “Readiness, lethality and modernization are the requirements driving these priorities.” As a member of one of the U.S. Navy’s most relied upon assets, Lukeman and other sailors know they are part of a legacy that will last beyond their lifetimes, contributing to the Navy the nation needs. “I would recommend service,” she said. “It helps you prepare for your future, and you get to see a lot of places. It’s been positive overall.”

GCC student first representative of MCCCD board BY DARRELL JACKSON Glendale Star Staff Writer
A Glendale Community College student will join the Maricopa County Community College District governing board as a student representative for the 2019-20 year. GCC’s Alejandra Maya was selected as the first student representative on the board, which includes people with backgrounds in real estate, state government, business, teaching and college administration and oversees one of the largest community college systems in the country. “We are excited to have student representation on our governing board,” MCCCD Chancellor Dr. Maria Harper-Marinick said. “This important role will advance the success of the next generation of scholars and thinkers by ensuring our board’s decisions are informed by student experiences. Alejandra will serve as an advocate for our students and help shape our college community and the future of the Maricopa Community Colleges.” Board President Linda Thor said she had numerous discussions with stu-

dents, through which she learned their input was invaluable when it came to different issues. “Students bring a different perspective to the conversation and can assist the board in valuable ways,” Thor said. Maya was selected to serve as the first student governing board member, which is a nonvoting position, but she will be able to participate in all governing board forums, speak on behalf of student priorities, and provide comprehensive input from students on community college issues.
Life is Better with Friends Let us provide you the resources you want and the ongoing support you need during this challenging time.
“As a first-generation college student, I am enthusiastic to serve as an example for other students who don’t know how to get their voice heard at an institution,” Maya said. “I want to be able to connect with student representation from all 10 colleges and speak on their behalf. I am thankful to be given this opportunity to help improve the student voice at the Maricopa Community Colleges.” The MCCCD governing board sets policies for a 10-college system that enrolls approximately 196,000 students in credit and noncredit courses. Board members, who are elected by voters in Maricopa County, also set tuition rates, approve the budget and hire the chancellor. Maya was selected by student leaders and can make requests and recommendations to have discussion items placed on the board’s meeting agenda. Maya’s position will be an advisory vote, which would be cast before the board officially votes. She will not be allowed to take part in executive sessions, which are closed to the public and can be used by law under
narrow circumstances. She is studying political science, and intends to transfer to ASU to pursue a bachelor’s degree in public policy and a master’s in public administration. She has held a variety of leadership positions at GCC including captain of the cheer team, Phi Theta Kappa vice president of membership, associate student government member, and president of the Student Honors Organization. She is also active in her community, serving as a volunteer cheer coach at a local elementary school. Previously, she has volunteered with the GCC Theater, the MCCCD Make It Happen campaign and Women Rising. “We are extremely pleased to welcome Alejandra to the board,” Thor said. “The addition of a student board member will have an important impact on the governance of our system and provide elected board members with a valuable, student perspective. I look forward to working with Alejandra and her contributions on behalf of students.”

PUSD hopeful with Sanderson Ford has lead upcoming bond election performance in 2018 BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF The Peoria Unified School District governing board voted to adopt a resolution ordering all matters necessary for a 15% maintenance and operations (M&O) budget override election to be held Tuesday, November 5. If approved by voters, the M&O override would allow the district to fund new student and staff safety initiatives and continue to support the following programs: all-day kindergarten, arts education programs including band and chorus, assistant principals for every school, attraction and retention of the best teachers and staff possible, athletic programs, extra/co-curricular activities, gifted education, maintain class sizes, nurses/health services at every school, physical education programs and reading programs. The Citizens’ Bond and Override Advisory Committee provided a unan-
imous recommendation to the governing board after conducting more than 10 public meetings. Meeting minutes and materials can be viewed at peoriaunified.org. If approved, the override will continue the district’s current override and increase the amount of the district’s revenue control limit from 13% to 15%. The associated tax rate would amount to approximately $1.74 per $100 of assessed property valuation. District voters first approved a 10% override in 1996 and renewed it again in 2001, 2006 and 2012. In 2015, voters approved a 13% override. The authorization lasts for seven years and phases out over the last two years if not renewed or replaced with another voter-approved initiative. The deadline for submitting arguments with respect to the M&O Override is 5 p.m. Friday, August 9.

Sanderson Ford officials and partners joined David Kimmerle and top executives from Ford Motor Co. at Sanderson Ford to honor its successes in 2018 and celebrate being America’s most awarded Ford dealership. Brad Jones, Ford Motor Co.’s Phoenix regional manager — who has presented top awards at Sanderson Ford for three consecutive years — said the dealership’s performance only keeps getting better. “It just becomes more and more impressive as I go back and look at the numbers and look at the accomplishments as to what this store; and what David has done within the community,” Jones said. Kimmerle, Sanderson Ford president, was presented 20 elite awards for leading in retail sales, fleet sales, parts, service, customer satisfaction and finance, among others. And Jones highlighted five key awards: Partners in Quality; Top Volume; Triple Crown; President’s Award; and One Ford Elite. Awards like these, which only a select group of the Ford dealers in the United States earn, speak to Sanderson’s dedication, Jones said. “The Triple Crown is the most prestigious program and recognizes the top-performing Ford dealers with customer satisfaction, vehicle sales, Ford Protect sales and parts purchases in a

calendar year,” Jones described. “We have only have 32 dealers out of our 3,000 nationally that won it in 2018.” And in regard to the President’s Award, Jones said, “You must achieve the highest level of customer satisfaction in both sales and service. We only have about 320 that (won) the President’s award.” Mark Witthar, Sanderson Ford general manager, said earning these prestigious awards doesn’t happen by accident. He attributes the dealership’s success to its staff and partners. “We sell a lot of cars and trucks; we service a lot of cars and trucks; we sell a lot of parts, and all of that is due to (our) 400 employees, because none of this, none of these awards, any of these things, would happen without the dedication of those 400 employees,” Witthar said. “It wouldn’t happen without our relationships with our partners. All of you are so very important to us.” The strong relationships with those employees and partners are what drive the dealer. “It is all about relationships. It’s not about me. It’s about the team — this is a ‘we’ team,” Kimmerle said. “All these awards are dedicated to our employees — every single one of them — and our partners. They’re your awards, and every single one of you has contributed. It wouldn’t be possible without that.”

Abrazo Arrowhead Police arrest suspect in wants cereal donations fatal April shooting BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Abrazo Health is planning its annual Healthy Over Hungry cereal drive, and this year the challenge has been issued: donate enough healthy cereal to fill the office of Abrazo Arrowhead Campus Chief Operating Officer Omar Pineda. Considering that last year Abrazo Arrowhead Campus staff and Northwest Valley community members donated more than 1,000 pounds of cereal. Those donations equaled an estimated 17,000 servings of cereal. “Whole-grain cereal, when part of a healthy, balanced breakfast including dairy, fruit and lean protein, is a popular food item that experts say can easily address the hunger gap during the summer months when children are not in school,” Pineda said. Packages of healthy breakfast cereal may be donated at Abrazo Arrowhead Campus and Abrazo Peoria Emergency Center through June 14. “Breakfast is an ally in the fight against chronic health problems. Our
goals are to help those struggling with hunger in our communities and to promote the importance of eating a healthy, balanced breakfast,” Abrazo Arrowhead CEO Jeff Patterson said. Abrazo’s annual Healthy Over Hungry cereal drive benefits local food banks. Donations of healthy breakfast cereals can be dropped off at the following locations: • Abrazo Arrowhead Campus, 18701 N. 67th Avenue, Glendale • Abrazo Peoria Emergency Center, 26900 N.

So what if claw games bite the hand that feeds them? BY DAVID LEIBOWITZ Glendale Star Columnist
Here’s a simple one-question test to determine whether you’re a realist or a dreamer: What do you believe when it comes to arcade games that offer gaudy prizes in return for a quarter or a buck? If you think they’re games of skill and that you’ve got this, you’re a dreamer. If you think they’re rigged, you’re a realist — and absolutely right on the money. I offer as proof the $1 million legal settlement reached recently between Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich and a New Jersey game manufacturer by the name of the Betson Coin-Op Distributing Company. Betson manufactures a fancy version of the old arcade claw game known as the Key Master Prize Redemption Machine, which at one point could be
found in locations statewide. The machine offered cool prizes like Sony PlayStations and iPads. All the player had to do was invest a dollar to use a joystick and a mechanical arm to guide a key into one of three locks. The catch, according to the AG? The Key Masters had been fitted with an “auto-percentaging system” similar to casino slot machines. That allowed the operator to guarantee a certain number of players before anyone won an expensive prize. Some Key Master games were rigged to lose 2,200 times before a winner popped up, according to the settlement.

That’s illegal under Arizona law. Just as it’s illegal to rig those claw crane games you find at the mall or your local kid-friendly pizza joint. What, you thought those were pure games of skill? Dreamer. As it turns out, the claws can be set at lesser grip strengths to make sure you drop the prizes. The operator can control how closely the claw’s talons come together or they can set the claw to gradually weaken, which gives your kid the heartbreaking moment of almost carrying that teddy bear to paydirt only to see it fall at the last second. Rigging crane games constitutes a Class 1 misdemeanor in Arizona, given that such chicanery violates statute 133312, which forbids “altering or maintaining a crane game so that the claw is physically unable to grasp exposed prizes.” That’s our legal code, always protecting us from being swindled by life’s bad guys. Meanwhile legalizing the lottery, which, I would submit, is a tax on dreamers who really suck at math. At press time, the Powerball jackpot was up to $350 million. Your odds of winning that prize? About one in 292 million. The Key Master gave players one-
in-2,200 odds of winning an iPad, which retails for more than 300 bucks. Your odds of winning 100 bucks picking three numbers plus the Powerball? About one in 14,494. I get that the Powerball posts its odds publicly so players understand the game is a long shot, whereas the Key Master and rigged claw games don’t advertise that you you’re being cheated. Still, all these games share a common modus operandi. Like all cons, they play on dreamers’ tendency to seek as much as possible in reward in return for as little as possible in effort and investment. Personally, on the rare occasions I’ve purchased lottery tickets, I’ve chalked it up as an entertainment expense. Realists don’t play Powerball as an investment. We buy the tickets for the 30 seconds of thrills we get checking the numbers — on the off, off chance. The same goes for claw games. Realists don’t play for the prize. We play for the 30 seconds of excitement generated by pursuing the prize. I always assumed those games were rigged. Knowing for sure? That might be justice, but it also takes all the fun out of it.

READERS’ VIEWPOINTS LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Old library masquerading as new Editor: West Glendale finally has its library. I won’t say its “new” library, for this facility was voted for 30 years ago, which makes it rather “old.” In the 1988 bond election, there was a “west branch library” listed. The bond issue passed, and there were meetings and groups to discuss the “new” library, proposals were discussed, plans were made, drawings were drawn, a site was picked, the city’s librarian listed programs to be offered, the item was placed in the capital budget… and there it stayed as the city built a library for new and potential residents, and it built an intergenerational facility for incoming residents. Each time the west branch library was pushed down to a lower priority in the capital budget. The city then decided it needed a new courthouse, so the priority was again lowered,
A R IZO N A’S LE A D E R I N M US I C A L T H E AT R E
and hundreds of thousands of dollars were spent on the infrastructure for the building, only to have it abandoned before completion. But West Glendale finally has its library. It’s too bad the voters who worked for it, who voted for it, who planned for it and whose taxes were to be spent for it can now not enjoy it. They passed away or moved away. Perhaps their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren can enjoy the library; I’m sure they would hope so. If the planners could, they would heartily congratulate Councilwoman Joyce Clark, whose dedication and persistence has been the only positive force in bringing the plan to fruition. Without Clark’s picking and prodding and persisting, this library would still be a low priority in the capital budget. For those unable to do so, I thank Clark for her dedication in serving the city as the voters wished. Barbara Garland Glendale

Photographer Jim Louvau honors Chester Bennington BY CHRISTINA FUOCO-KARASINSKI Glendale Star Executive Editor
Jim Louvau was driving along a Valley freeway when Linkin Park came on the radio. As the song ended, he flipped channels, only to hear the Grammy-winning band once again. Louvau can’t seem to escape the rock band, and that is precisely the problem. He can’t get away from the music or memories of his friend, Chester Bennington, who died by suicide on July 20, 2017. “It’s terrible every day,” Louvau said with his eyes turned down. “It’s different when you lose a family member, where it affects your immediate circle. You get back to regular life and you can get away from it when do other things. “But when your friend happened to be as successful as he was, his music’s not going anywhere or going away anytime soon.” A photographer, musician and writer, Louvau will host “Celebrating the Life of Chester Bennington” at MonOrchid in Phoenix on Friday, June 21. The exhibit will honor the late Linkin Park singer through a series of photographs they created. Louvau captured Bennington on and off stage. The North Valley resident is bringing the show, which sold out in Burbank, California, to the singer’s home state. The Burbank show’s success snowballed. TMZ and other outlets reported about it, much to Louvau’s dismay. Louvau was appalled with TMZ’s intrusive coverage of Bennington’s death and its reporters’ persistence in contacting him. “I woke up at 8 in the morning and my phone was blowing up,” Louvau recalled about the morning of the show’s second day. “I had text messages, missed calls, voicemails, emails, Facebook messages and DMs on Instagram from TMZ trying to track me down,” he said. “I was really, really annoyed at the time. I was getting text messages from my family members, too, because TMZ was calling them to get to me. This was all by 8 in the morning and I’d been out all night. Plus, some of the coverage TMZ did when Chester passed was

pretty tasteless. I was really skeptical about talking to them. I told them I wasn’t available and to reach out to my publicist.” Like Burbank, the MonOrchid show will benefit 320 Change Direction, a charity co-founded by Bennington’s wife, Talinda, bringing awareness to mental health. She gave Louvau her blessing to host the show. Louvau said he was surprised the Burbank show sold out. As a matter of fact, it filled so quickly a second night was added and sold out. Fans strolled among the larger-than-life portraits of Bennington. “The vibe in the room both nights was incredible,” Louvau said. “It was a celebration of a person who impacted a lot of people’s lives.” The surviving Linkin Park musicians, whom Louvau does not know, did not attend the show. Thanks to the success of Louvau’s Burbank show, he has been asked to bring the event overseas. “They don’t understand how, logistically, that would work,” he said. “They don’t fit in cars. I had to get a U-Haul to get them home from California.”
A shared love of music
Louvau was set to play the Mason Jar with his band, Victims in Ecstacy, in the
early 2000s when the manager asked if he would consider switching places with the opening act, Linkin Park. “He said one of the guys was from Phoenix and his family couldn’t make it out early,” he said. “He asked if we would mind going on earlier. I said it was fine because it was the middle of the week and I could get out of there sooner.” That was shortly before the release of Linkin Park’s first record, 2000’s “Hybrid Theory.” At the time, labels put their “baby bands” on the road, with the hopes of landing opening spots for established acts in various markets. There was something special about Louvau and Bennington’s relationship from the beginning. “We had an issue where we broke the snare drum, so I was on stage trying to entertain people and trying to figure out how we were going to do this,” Louvau recalled. “Then there’s Chester coming to the rescue, grabbing their snare drum, and we finished the show that way. That was the beginning of our friendship.” A few months later, Louvau and Bennington ran into each other at a radio show. “I was backstage, and I get a tap on my shoulder,” Louvau said. “It was
Chester and he was telling me how much he loved my band and loved the show. “When I met him, his band wasn’t massive. We were just two guys in bands. It was nothing more than two peers. We did the same thing. He just happened to be really successful with it.” Louvau took a break from music to be a photographer, which he called “the second coolest thing in the world that I could think of to capture my favorite artists.” Bennington — who also played with Dead by Sunrise and Stone Temple Pilots — was willing to work with Louvau to help him hone his craft. “I have almost a decade’s worth of photos of him — performing on stage with Linkin Park, the Stone Temple Pilots or walking down the hallways of Cardon Children’s Hospital,” Louvau said. “I watched him talk to sick kids and families. I have all these different characteristics of Chester through photos. I never thought they would mean so much. I was just taking photos of a friend.”
Longtime talent
Louvau attended Glendale’s Ironwood High School. For as long as he can remember, he’s wanted to pursue music or photography. “I had this idea that if I was going to be a musician, I had to give that 100% and nothing else could fit into my creative spectrum,” he said. “As I got older, I figured out that was ridiculous. I can do both at the same time and be equally as passionate about both. “I’m lucky I have both because, if I was just doing one all the time, I would lose my mind. They complement each other and they’ve opened doors for the other as well, which is cool.” Louvau, who now fronts There is No Us, quit his full-time job four years ago to become a freelance photographer when his mother was diagnosed with brain cancer. He juggled caregiving, photography and writing. “I had to create opportunities for mySEE JIM

self so I could spend as much time with my mom as I could,” Louvau said. “I spent eight months with her and learned the ropes of what it really meant to be a freelancer. It was definitely a gift from her because she was freelancing in her own industry. “You have to have a lot of guts to not work a regular job and really go for it — especially in this market. I haven’t worked since the day we found out she was ill.” Louvau said his multifaceted career is his way of channeling energy — nervous, anger, happiness and sadness. “It could be whatever makes you tick,” he said. “That’s why so many people gravitate toward musicians. They’re saying these things a lot of people feel.” Bennington is included in that group. The last day the two spent together, Bennington played the “One More Light” record — which was released two months before the singer died — for Louvau as they cruised the California coast. “I played my new music,” Louvau said. “It’s really heavy and he’s rocking out as he’s driving. I look over just trying to gauge his reaction. “He says, ‘Now for something completely

different. We just made a pop record.’ I thought it’s probably going to sound a lot like Linkin Park. But yeah, it was a pop record and every time a song or a chorus would change, he looked at me to see my reaction. It was cool because when I was playing my stuff for him, I was nervous. He was equally as nervous playing his stuff.” “Nervous” wasn’t Louvau’s only feeling. He said the music was blatantly troubling and that stayed with him. “After he passed, I said these feelings were with him the whole time,” Louvau said. “It was just being presented in a different way because the music was different. It was from the first single to the last and everything in between.” Gossip publications and TV shows reported Bennington’s suicide was inspired by Chris Cornell hanging himself on May 18, 2017. Louvau said that isn’t so. “I wouldn’t say Chris Cornell inspired it because there was already a lot of things going on. He shared with me …,” Louvau said quickly redirecting the conversation. “I don’t think the Chris Cornell thing helped. We’re sitting here, right now, on the two-year anniversary of Chris Cornell’s passing. “Sometimes it feels like it’s been five years. Sometimes it feels like it’s been six months.” “Celebrating the Life of Chester Bennington” is Louvau’s way of mourning the singer and thanking him. “I do these exhibits to honor and thank him because he was a really big part of my story in the beginning,” Louvau said. “He’s a really big part of my story again now. He opened doors for me in the beginning and he’s opening doors for me every day still. It’s unfortunate, the circumstances. I look at it like this: I take the gifts my mother and Chester left me and I’m doing my best to make the best of terrible situations.”

Endangered jaguar gives birth at Wildlife World BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF After making international headlines, a Wildlife World Zoo, Aquarium and Safari Park jaguar is back in the spotlight. Endangered jaguar Sara gave birth to a healthy cub earlier this month. Wildlife World Zoo’s newest member shares its mother’s melanistic coloration — black with black spots. When Sara made headlines, she was into her second trimester. Thereafter, Wildlife World’s animal care team decided to move Sara off exhibit, where her and her unborn cub’s health, comfort and well-being could be better monitored by staff. Sara’s cub is receiving around-the-clock care by the experienced Wildlife World hand-raising team and veterinarians. The youngster enjoys bottles of formula several times a day, and over the next few weeks she will begin the transition to include
meat in her diet. Sara will continue to spend 15 hours a day in her two-story habitat at Wildlife World Zoo and will return to full time once modifications are complete. The exhibit’s climbing wall, perches, waterfall, pool and foliage were constructed specifically to duplicate the natural habitat for jaguars. The exhibit features an enclosed ledge that allows the cats to climb up and over zoo visitors, giving guests and animals a truly unique view of each other. This unique design has now become very popular in zoos over the past decade but was first featured at Wildlife World in 1985. The jaguar species has an extensive range throughout Central and South

America and were once found throughout the southwest, including Arizona. Male jaguars can reach up to about 200 pounds and are known to have the strongest bite of any feline species. Their stocky build allows them to climb with ease in their preferred rainforest habitat to stalk and ambush prey. While most jaguars are yellow with black spots, a sizable fraction of the population is melanistic. Similar to many large predators across the globe, jaguars face an uncertain future due to poaching and deforestation resulting in habitat loss and fragmentation. Many are killed as a result of increasing human-animal conflicts over space and resources. Wildlife World’s keepers and veterinarians have raised dozens of species of wild and endangered animals over the past 34 years, ensuring maximized genetic diversity in the zoological population with their breeding programs. With more than 600 species and 6,000 animals on display, there are regularly new arrivals at Wildlife World Zoo, Aquarium and Safari Park. Other babies on display include warthogs; black-backed jackals; colobus and spider monkeys; young capybara;
and several hoofed animal species like baby goats in the petting zoo; and other youngsters throughout the 100-acre park.

Firefighter’s life saved by annual physical BY CHRISTINA FUOCO-KARASINSKI Glendale Star Executive Editor
Glendale firefighter Dennis Dorrance was experiencing a shortness of breath and fatigue. His doctor said he had asthma. “My allergies were unbelievable,” said Dorrance, who’s been a firefighter for 25 years. “I was having sinus infections on and off; three or four a year. They did allergy testing and put me through testing for sleep apnea. My shortness of breath wasn’t bad enough for a C-PAP.” The asthma medications cost $300 a month. By the end of 2015, the problems worsened. He was convinced he had dementia because he was forgetting things. His coworkers even questioned his state. Dorrance was pale and withdrawn. “The guys on the truck were saying, ‘Dennis, something’s wrong with you. You’re getting worse,’” Dorrance recalled. While at his annual routine physical at the Glendale Fire Department Health Center, the staff noticed cardiac abnormalities. They referred him to a cardiologist. He was sent to Biltmore Cardiology for a cardiac consult and received a Coronary Computed Tomography Angiogram scan, where more than 30% stenosis was detected. His physician then ordered the noninvasive HeartFlow Analysis, which showed a significant coronary blockage. Within minutes of the diagnosis, Dorrance’s cardiologist scheduled him for a cardiac procedure. He was barely

able to walk into the hospital without feeling short of breath, and by the time he left he felt like a new man. A couple of hours later, Dorrance had a new lease on life. If it weren’t for the detection through the health center Dorrance may not have had such a favorable outcome. His left anterior descending artery was 86% blocked. That is the location of widowmaker heart attacks. More than 780,000 people die from this annually, he said. “The first sign is sudden cardiac death,” said Dorrance, 58. “I dodged a bullet big time. I don’t know why I was spared. HeartFlow is the end all, cure all for firefighters.”

We enjoyed samples, and which did not disappoint. We are thrilled to see the first Chingon Kitchen in Arizona open with our great partners of the Gila River Indian Community.

The sense and sensibility of responsibility We live in a world full of blame shifting. Most of us struggle with accepting responsibility for our mistakes and choices. We don’t like to lose face. With one misstep we could end up on a Yelp! page or Trip Advisor or someone’s blog in social media. We could lose an election or be disqualified from a scholarship from one supposed incident in high school. As a result, many lie, deny, insolate and isolate. The results of telling the truth or accepting responsibility are just too great; emotionally, legally, socially and strategically. One of the best illustrations I have heard on taking personal responsibility comes from author John Maxwell’s book “The Leader Within You.” The sales manager of a dog food company asked his sales personnel how they liked the company’s new advertising program. “Great! The best in

the business,” they responded. “How do you like our new label and package?” “Great. The best in the business,” they responded. “How do you like our sales force?” They were the sales force. They had to admit they were very good. “OK, then,” said the manager. “So we’ve got the best label and the best advertising program being sold by the best sales force in the business. Tell me why we are in 17th place in the dog food business?” Finally, someone said, “It’s those lousy dogs. They won’t eat

the stuff!” Of course, there are real victims. There are people through no fault of their own have had terrible things happen to them. You get in an accident caused by someone else; you are assaulted by someone; etc. That’s not your fault. In this article, I’m talking about people who blame-shift, whether unaware or aware. They blame society, someone or something else, the past, or just outright lie to hide the real issue. They feel entitled to do so. Their life’s mantra seems like if at first you don’t succeed, destroy all the evidence that you tried. Dodging responsibility usually comes from shame. Blame shifting is mostly shame shifting. We feel ashamed, and then become afraid we will lose credibility, popularity, dignity, position or prosperity. The propensity to blame-shift and not take personal responsibility came right from the beginning of man. Adam and Eve did something they both knew they were asked by God not to do. What was Adam’s response? He blamed Eve. You know the rest. Adam blamed Eve, Eve blamed the snake and the snake didn’t have a leg to stand on. Why did they blame one another? Because of shame. Right away they had to go to the Macy’s store and buy a fig leaf to hide behind. Then they lost their authenticity, living a life of secrets. No matter how much the cost was to them and us, they didn’t want anyone to see their shame. Do you know what? We have the same default Adam and Eve did; hide and hurl, and then they play the blame game. The problem with shame is it produces guilt. We feel guilty because we are guilty. Guilt is uncomfortable. So, we look for someone or something to transfer our guilt on or to.
We’ve had lots of time to perfect the blame game. It’s the morphine of our time. “It’s those lousy dogs. They won’t eat the stuff!” Denial is not a river in Egypt … it’s right here … in us! The more we play victim when we aren’t, the more being a victim becomes our lifestyle. It colors our worldview, causing us to underachieve. It hurts others also. How do you get rid of shame-based guilt? Shame-based guilt must be transformed, or it will be transferred. Here’s God’s transformational solution: “If we confess our sins (areas where we missed the mark), God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:9. On the cross, the shame and guilt we feel is transferred from us to Jesus, not others. God is also just. There may be consequences from the choices we have made but God will sort out how it affects you, usually with a lot of grace thrown in. So, we admit it, quit it and take responsibility for what we did. Then God sets us free from the guilt and shame. We can move on. Consider this: It’s better to accept responsibility for your mistakes than live a life of unresolved, ever-increasing guilt, hiding behind the fig leaf of blaming others, and seeing others suffer the consequences for something we did. Someone once said, “If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for most of your troubles, you wouldn’t be able to sit down for a month!” Ouch! I resemble that. And that’s the sense and sensibility of responsibility.

6 ways to keep kids occupied this summer BY CARRIE SNIDER
Glendale Star Contributing Writer
Parents often wonder how they can help their children stay occupied this summer. Reading programs are standard for the summer, but there are kids’ classes, local entertainment facilities and ballpark events that parents may not know about. Here are the programs and attractions to keep kids busy.
Glendale Library Classes & Summer Reading Program
A summer reading program not only helps children continue to build their reading skills, the books they read can expand their knowledge. They avoid the “summer slide.” The reading program “A Universe of Stories,” the same one the Maricopa County Library District is hosting, celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Apollo Moon Landing. Glendale libraries,
however, are not part of the Maricopa County Library District. All Glendale libraries — Main, Foothills, Velma Teague and Heroes Regional Park — are participating. Visit maricopacountyreads.org or head to any of those four library locations for details. Kids can enter minutes read online, plus they can enter “secret codes” for more points (game boards are also available at the library). Those who earn 500 points win a food coupon and 1,000 points earns a free book. Participants can earn a Peter Piper Pizza coupon (up to age 11), a Rubio’s Coastal Grill coupon (ages 12 and older), free tickets to a Phoenix Mercury game, or a free book. Secret codes can be found out in the community at parks, businesses, community centers and other strategic places, as well as at library events. Summer classes at Glendale library locations are also free and fun. The
Student Chronicles Arizona State University recently held its commencement ceremonies. Below are the graduates from the Glendale Star circulation area. • Emile Collier sociology at The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences • Cassidy Cosgrove studied biology at the New College of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences • Moesha Crawford studied elementary and special education at the Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College • Sophia Ibarra studied social work at the Watts College of Public Service and Community Solutions • Tiffanie Lord studied graphic information technology at Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering • Natalie Martinez studied biological sciences at The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences • Frank Melgar studied business administration and business Spanish
branches offer a variety of options. They include guitar classes for tweens, knitting a crocheting, Lego mania, and more. Visit glendaleaz.com/library and click on “calendar” for details. In addition to the library’s reading program, be sure to check out the summer reading program at Barnes & Noble at 2501 W. Happy Valley Road. Print off the reading journal on the website for kids in grades 1 to 6. In August, they can turn in their journal for a free book. Visit barnesandnoble.com for information.
City parks and recreation activities
The city of Glendale and YMCA each have their own programs to keep kids active physically and mentally. Glendale’s parks and recreation department has art, ballet, tennis, karate, judo, archery and more. Visit glendaleaz.com/parksandrecreation for details.
The Glendale/Peoria Family YMCA at 14711 N. 59th Avenue in Glendale has swim lessons, day camp, overnight camp, and sports teams like basketball, volleyball, gymnastics, soccer and more. Visit valleyymca.org/glendale-peoria for information.
Free movie nights
SummerFUN Movie on the Field will be held from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. Friday, June 15, at the Arizona Sports Complex, 3555 W. Pinnacle Peak Road. The event is free and open to the public, and includes free viewing of “Moana” at dusk.

DV football working toward a bounce-back season BY ERIC NEWMAN Glendale Star Staff Writer
Just watching players at offseason exhibition practices, it would be hard to tell the Deer Valley football team is coming off its worst season in recent memory. The Skyhawks finished the 2018 season with an 0-10 record. Nonetheless, players were flying to the ball, slapping hands and exerting positive energy at the ACU passing tournament in late May, the memory of last season imprinted in their heads along with hope for a better future. “You can’t get any lower than what
You can’t get any lower than what we did. Now we’re only going up. – Skyhawk senior Charles Hill Jr. we did. Now we’re only going up,” Skyhawk senior Charles Hill Jr. said. Coach Dan Friedman, in his third season, has noticed early on in the competitions that attitudes have improved significantly from seasons past. Before, players in the huddle might get contentious after a dropped ball or missed opportunity. Now, the Skyhawks look at each mistake as a chance for somebody to step up and make an impactful play. The passing games, win or lose, also give the players a chance to build their confidence. Deer Valley is a young team, with many juniors and sophomores set to play major roles, and their contributions in the games constitute their first at the varsity level, or at least since last fall. “You’re practicing against yourself in spring semester, Deer Valley football coach Dan Friedman observes at the ACU passing tournament in Scottsdale.

Business Briefcase BY CONNOR DZIAWURA
Glendale Star Managing Editor
Hello, readers! And welcome back to the Briefcase, where we discuss all the hot new business openings, closings, construction and development, renovations, networking and more. This week’s column will focus on the “networking and more,” as a business with a local tie is working to benefit kids in the Valley, several local insurance agents were commended for their efforts, and a great business meetup is approaching. Here’s the news! First, Delta Dental of Arizona teamed up with the Arizona Diamondbacks to provide “Smile Bags” to more than 7,000 Little Leaguers. Delta Dental of Arizona — which has a location at 5656 W. Talavi Boulevard in Glendale — has been distributing these bags — which include tooth brushes, toothpaste, floss and an educational card with brushing and flossing tips — to Little Leaguers at games since April, and will continue through June. The teams participate this baseball season in the Arizona Diamondbacks Give Back Youth Jersey Program, which was launched by the Arizona Diamondbacks Foundation to provide youth baseball and softball leagues with branded uniforms and caps to offset expenses across Arizona. These sponsorships have allowed leagues to dedicate funds to registration fees, equipment and facility improvements. “A healthy body starts with a healthy mouth and Delta Dental of Arizona is pleased to provide these children with the tools they need to keep their teeth and gums healthy and keep them on the field,” said Allan Allford, president and CEO at Delta Dental of Arizona. “They may be Little Leaguers, but we want them to have big smiles, so we thank the D-backs for allowing us to promote good oral health habits for these young ball players.” For more information on Delta Dental of Arizona, visit deltadentalaz.com. Next, 62 Allstate exclusive agency owners — including four in Glendale — have been designated an Allstate Premier Agency for 2019. These in-
