East Valley losing thousands in recycling revenue BY RICK BARRS Tribune Managing Editor

escribed as a “wakeup call” to the United States, the Republic of China’s decision to cease serving as a garbage dump for the world has crippled East Valley municipal recycling businesses, costing municipalities hundreds of thousands of dollars. The impact is dramatic: Last year, Chandler earned over a half-million dollars for selling its recyclables. This year, the Chinese action will cost the city nearly twice that instead to get rid of them. Declared “National Sword” by Chinese President Xi Jinping, China’s drastic change

to its recycling policy is aimed at stopping the flow of “foreign garbage” into the country. Under the new edict, China will accept only recyclable bales with contaminant levels of 0.5 percent or better – a standard that American cities never come close to achieving. The national average for U.S. recyclables contaminants is 25 percent – and the East Valley levels are no different. Frank Flores, Gilbert’s environmental services manager, said the town’s contaminant level has run from 15 to 20 percent. In Chandler and Mesa, it’s a little better at 11 and 13 percent, respectively. Phoenix stations average 25 percent, recycling representatives reported. “I don’t fault them for doing what they’re

doing,” Flores said of the Chinese, noting the U.S. needs to clean up its recyclables. “But I hate them for doing what they’re doing.” He noted that China bought tainted U.S. recyclables for about 20 years before suddenly pulling the plug. What this means is that too many improper or contaminated recyclables – plastic grocery bags, diapers, paper towels, tomato saucecrusted cans, greasy pizza boxes and the like – were getting mixed into bales headed for China and winding up in the massively populated country’s landfills. The reality now is that because U.S. cities can’t dispose of contaminated material in ChiSee

Harrolle, 42, lost her husband, Arizona Department of Public Safety Officer/Paramedic Bruce Harrolle in October 2008. He was killed at age 36 while rescuing two stranded hikers in Sedona. Now she is the president/CEO of the 100 Club of Arizona, helping public safety employees and their families, especially in times when tragedy strikes them. Harrolle became a widow at 33, left to raise the couple’s daughter, Addie, then 4, and son, Justice, then 2. As Mother’s Day approaches May 13, Harrolle recently reflected on how her own family is doing several years after her husband’s death. She said the Department of Public Safety, as See

Church unveils extensive remodeling plans for Mesa Temple

BY ERICK O’DONNELL Tribune Staff Writer

he iconic Mesa Arizona Temple will undergo extensive upgrades and remodeling with an eye to both functional and cosmetic improvements, officials of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints said last week. Unveiling plans for one of Arizona’s most iconic structures, Mormon officials said that in addition to upgrading the air conditioning, plumbing and other building infrastructure, workers will make an array of changes throughout the 70,000-squarefoot building and surrounding grounds to restore and enhance the site’s original aesthetic vision, they said. The most dramatic change on the grounds will involve the demolition of the visitors’ center. It will be replaced by a “family discovery center” on the southwest corner of LeSueur and Main streets, providing a clear view of the temple from Main Street in downtown Mesa. The new building will host historical exhibits and events and provide educational and family-research resources to LDS congregants. It also will result in the eviction of tenants in nine World War 11-era homes in the downtown historical district on Udall and LeSeuer streets. Tenants were asked to attend a meeting last week to discuss the eviction, said to be effective June 30. The temple – which for decades has hosted an elaborate Easter pageant and Christmas light display – will close May 19 and reopen in 2020, with the annual holiday celebrations returning thereafter, said Roc Arnett, a church spokesman. The deteriorating condition of the building’s systems provided an opportu-

nity to reverse changes made in the 1970s that, in hindsight, the church has come to regard as deviations from the temple’s original design, said Emily Utt, the church’s historical curator. Interior architecture and artwork will be cleaned and restored, and new artistic touches will be introduced during the overhaul, she said. The interior renovations will emphasize the sanctuary’s original colors and building materials, said Bill Williams, the church’s temple designer. The vivid pastel colors and dark-brown limestone, obscured since the building’s original dedication by subsequent paint jobs, will once again flourish, he said. Meanwhile, the baptismal room’s walls will be restored to their original soothingly cool shade of green, and blue terra-cotta tiles will adorn the room’s ceremonial basin in place of materials introduced since the temple’s founding. The temple’s murals – which depict Native Americans, Mormon pilgrims of all ethnicities and American landscapes – will be retouched and new murals will be added, Williams said. The surrounding gardens will also be preserved and expanded.

replant the cypress, olive, and other species of trees that have shaded the temple grounds in the 1920s, Utt said. New cactus gardens will be introduced, she said. The temple, among the first to be built outside Salt Lake City, Utah, has been a historic anchor for the Mormon since it opened in 1927. Considered a “house of God,” the temple – like the other 159 sanctuaries around the world, – hosts the church’s holiest sacraments, including weddings, baptisms and “sealings,” a ceremony unique in which family members confer eternal permanence on their relationships. The renovations are partly intended to spur an economic revitalization of downtown Main Street. Denny Barney, president of the East Valley Partnership and a Maricopa County supervisor, foresees “tens of millions of dollars” of business investment in an area to the west of the temple that has been scouted by the church for redevelopment. Barney himself has said that he has purchased property for the church near the temple and has coordinated with the church on plans. Some community members, including historic preservationists, have balked at a perceived lack of public transparency regarding the project as well as its consequences for the city’s historic district. The church requested city permission to demolish the homes, but the city denied at least three of those requests, imposing a moratorium on demolitions that will expire later this year. City and church officials have been mum on details of that development but are expected to discuss them later this month.

na, it’s getting dumped in landfills here. That flies in the face of Phoenix’s goal of using recycling to divert 40 percent of its garbage from its landfills by 2020. China was experiencing a building boom and needed recyclables to be converted into products for its infrastructure. But its construction sizzle cooled in the last few years, and China started caring deeply that U.S. and European recycling was filling up its landfills. At the zenith of China’s recyclablesbuying frenzy, it was receiving half of America’s recyclables exports – most of them from the western United States. Municipal governments – including Gilbert, Mesa and Chandler – sold their recyclables to material-recovery facilities such as United Fibers in Chandler, which in turn sold most of the material to China. The process still works the same, except that what the recovery facilities pay municipalities has plunged dramatically this year because the China market has largely evaporated. In some cases, it’s gotten so bad that cities are suddenly paying the facilities to handle and dispose of their recyclables. Take Chandler: It received $543,075 for its 19,500 tons of recyclables last year at $25.50 a ton. It expects to get some compensation from United Fibers this year for the sale of its goods but nonetheless projects a giant loss. Because of China’s new policy, the Chandler City Council – at the behest of United Fibers – enacted a March 22 resolution canceling the city’s agreement with its recycling facility. The council instead agreed to pay the company $61 a ton to handle the recyclables. “We won’t get the $543,000 this year,” and the projection is that instead “we will pay $450,000” to United Fibers for separating and selling or disposing the city’s recyclables, said Traci Conaway, Chandler’s recycling director. That would be a negative financial impact of $943,000 this year over last. “I don’t want to say we’re scared,” Conaway said of the blow from the China decision to Chandler’s recycling business. “But it’s concerning.”

Industry in turmoil

Flores said Gilbert had anticipated receiving $375,000 from the sale of recyclables for the fiscal year ending June 30, but because of China’s new demand, it now projects it will get just 10 percent of that, or $37,500. It’s a “huge loss,” he said.

Recycling operations have been increasingly profitable for East Valley municipalities but the gravy train has been derailed by the Republic of China's new policy of refusing to take American recyclables because they're too contaminated, making them ill-suited for re-use in other products. Though workers sort out recyclables, no municipality in the region achieves the new Chinese standard, forcing municipal recycling operations to scramble for new places that will accept the materials. Some experts fear China is at the vanguard of a new approach to recyclables and that other countries that currently accept them will follow that nation's lead.

It hasn’t been as severe for Mesa, according to Mariano Reyes, communications specialist for the Department of Environmental Management and Sustainability. He said Mesa took in $819,301 for its recyclables last fiscal year and projects that it will receive $600,000 this fiscal year – about a 26 percent decline. Reyes said the recycling industry has been in turmoil since the China decision: “We don’t know what the future is going to hold.” In vastly larger Phoenix, China’s ban has cut the city’s net recycling revenue from roughly $500,000 a month in early 2017 to between $100,000 and $150,000 a month early this year, according to a presentation by Assistant Public Works Director Joe Giudice to a City Council subcommittee. Giudice called this a “trend line” based on a “small sample size,” and in an interview, offered a different measure of the situation. When the city compared the last quarter of 2015 with the last quarter of 2017, he said, it noted a 34 percent decline in Phoenix’s recycling revenue. That was before President Xi’s new policy was kicked off early this year. The recyclables commodities markets were impacted severely last year by Xi’s

July announcement, but experts fear it will only get worse now that the ban is in effect. Guidice said in his presentation that because the 0.5 measure apparently wasn’t met, ships loaded with recyclables have been turned away at Chinese ports. The municipal recycling managers stressed that the recycling commodities market historically has been prone to fluctuation. Trying to predict how such commodities will go is “like trying to predict the stock market,” Chandler’s Conaway said. But the China decision has hit their cities hard, although the managers believe that other significant markets for American recyclables eventually will be discovered both here and abroad. Already, markets for certain U.S. recyclables have emerged in India, Indonesia and Malaysia. And there’s hope among the Valley managers that more U.S. companies will crop up to help fill the void left by China – which paid so much for American recyclables for so long that it muscled out smaller competition. As for China, some of the managers said they’ve heard rumblings in the industry that the nation is considering relaxing its 0.5 rule.

And some recycling business continues to be done with China. Unlike the other cities surveyed, Phoenix operates its own municipal recycling facilities, which it pays waste-disposal giant Republic Services to manage. Giudice said that company continues to have a contract with a Chinese business to provide a “newsmix” of newsprint and other paper. But he stressed that the U.S. never should have relied so heavily on China as the dominant market for its recyclables. He labeled Xi’s decision a “wakeup call” to diversify. Whatever markets are found or restored for U.S. recyclables, the consensus among Valley managers is that their products must be far less contaminated from the get-go.

Tainted recyclables hit landfills

“A lot of what we were sending to China is now going to landfills here,” said United Fibers CEO Ron Whaley, who believes that cities eventually can get their recyclables inventories to 0.5 percent so that they can be sold again to the Chinese. Whaley said United Fibers is installing equipment over the next few years that See

well as fellow mothers who have lost their public safety spouses, the 100 Club of Arizona, friends and relatives have rallied around her and her children. “When something like this happens, the community outpouring of support is next to none,” Angela said. Justice, now 11 and a fifth-grader at Jacobson Elementary School, loves riding a custom scooter. Addie, 14 and an eighthgrader at Bogle Junior High School, loves horseback riding. “It’s been nine years and we’re doing very good,” Harrolle said. “They are some of the most resilient children on the planet. They’re very adaptable.” The seeds of her current career were sown in the tragedy that she and her children suffered 10 years ago. She had not been familiar with the 100 Club of Arizona back then, but the woman who was the executive director of the organization at the time, visited her within 24 hours of Bruce’s death. That woman also was a widow whose husband had worked for DPS, and her visit gave Harrolle hope that she could carry on as a single mother. “It was the 100 Club that came to my house,” Harrolle said. “They showed up at my door and gave us a check for $15,000. More than the financial support, it was the fact that the executive…sat across from me. I knew, if she could do it, so could I. I immediately wanted to be volunteering.” She worked for the 100 Club for about a year and a half in program development, starting around 2011, then left and returned two and a half years ago when she was asked to become its president and CEO. “I love it so much,” she said. “It’s the best job ever, outside of being a mom.” The 100 Club concept started in Detroit in 1952 after a young Detroit police officer was shot to death. William M. Packer, a car dealer and friend of the police commissioner, wrote to 100 of his friends asking them to donate money to support the fallen officer’s family. Packer got a 100 percent response rate and the fallen officer’s widow was able to pay off a mortgage and other bills and establish an education account for their unborn child. More than 40 different 100 Clubs exist in other states, and they all “came from the same idea or same principle” but each is slightly different and runs independently, Harrolle said. Having recently celebrated its 50th anniversary, the 100 Club of Arizona pro-

vides help to public safety agencies, officers, firefighters, EMT/paramedics and their families around Arizona. The organization, based in Phoenix, assists all police, correctional officers, probation and parole officers, firefighters and federal agents at the county, municipal, state, tribal and federal levels. A one-time $15,000 contribution, like the one Harrolle received, is given to family members of public safety employees killed in the line of duty. The 100 Club of Arizona supports not only the surviving family members of public safety workers, but also living public safety employees and the agencies where they work. The Safety Enhancement Stipend program, started in 2004, helps agencies buy equipment and provide training to boost the safety of officers and firefighters. Last year the 100 Club of Arizona provided nearly $177,000 in help to agencies through the program. Harrolle was thrilled when the Valley Toyota Dealers Association recently donated $100,000 to the program – the largest donation to the program in its history. “To be able to do twice as much good is just priceless,” she said. “I’m just the catalyst. It’s awesome that they’re giving.” The organization’s scholarship program, started in 2006, provides undergraduate financial education help to immediate family members of active, retired or deceased public safety officers and firefighters in the state. Police officers and firefighters also can

apply for scholarships to “enhance their current degree field.” The 100 Club of Arizona provided $190,500 in scholarship money in 2017. Its Bulletproof program is a confidential, anonymous resource that offers law enforcement professionals and their families mental health and wellness programs, as well as addiction awareness tools, assessments and guidance toward care and treatment. She understands what it is like to work in a high-risk job trying to keep other people safe. Growing up on a farm in Lake Crystal, Minnesota, as the oldest of six children, she longed for adventure and to explore other cultures. She moved to Arizona and earned bachelor’s degrees in justice studies and business at Arizona State University. “I desired to see the world,” she said. “I wanted to experience other cultures, learn how other people live.” After graduating from ASU, she accepted a job at the U.S. Department of State in 1998. In her job, she protected secretaries of state Colin Powell, Madeleine Albright and Condoleezza Rice and visiting dignitaries, including the Dalai Lama and Nelson Mandela. She protected U.S. embassies and consulates and visited 45 countries, most of them through her work. She enjoyed the adventure and did not think about the dangers she faced. “My scary moments in life are probably more (from) being a parent,” she said. She still does contract work for the State

Department, performing background checks on people seeking jobs or renewing work clearances. Harrolle vividly remembers that fateful day in October 2008 when Addie told her someone was at their front door. She could see the DPS officers through her screen door and sensed they were coming to deliver bad news. After learning her husband had died, she put Addie and Justice on her lap and told them their father had a bad “ouchie” and would not be coming home. When asked how she had the strength to carry on after losing her husband, she did not hesitate to say “my kids.” “You have kids,” she said. “You don’t have a choice. You can’t just go hide in your bedroom.” She said after Bruce’s death she was “very concerned about us having health insurance.” When benefits ended a short time after her husband’s death, she had to pay extremely high premiums to continue the family’s health insurance. She and DPS joined forces to bring about legislation in 2010 that provides survivor families of law enforcement officials access to health insurance coverage for the first year after a death. Of all her accomplishments, she said she is most proud of helping to get passage of this legislation, known as “Harrolle’s Law.” To be able to affect families for a lifetime is one of the best feelings on the planet,” she said. She also is happy about the “First Responder” license plate program that started after she became president and CEO of the 100 Club of Arizona. More than 20,000 “First Responder” license plates have been created since the offering started last year. While she spends most of her professional time doing her work for the 100 Club of Arizona, she also continues contract work for the State Department. She also has a broker’s and real estate license and owns the Fed Realty Group, through which she and other Realtors help government employees who are relocating. And she is an investor-partner in Chandler restaurants CHoP Chandler, The Living Room Wine Café & Lounge, Humble Pie and La Sala Tequila Cantina, which are owned by the same group. She takes in stride the many hats she wears: “It’s always a whirlwind, but I’m a much happier busy person.” She advised other busy parents to get help from family members and friends. “Engage your tribe,” she said. “Allow See

Save Our Schools targets ‘dark money,’ snubs tax surcharge BY HOWARD FISCHER Capitol Media Services

he East Valley-based group responsible for forcing a public vote on the future of vouchers won’t back a plan to hike taxes on the rich to help fund schools. Dawn Penich-Thacker, spokeswoman for Save Our Schools, acknowledged that an initiative filed two weeks ago for an income tax surcharge is designed to raise about $690 million a year for K-12 education. And she said a dedicated source of dollars is needed to ensure that there are sufficient dollars to support schools in case of a future recession. But she said that raising taxes on only those in the top 2.5 percent of income appears more divisive – and more partisan – than her organization likes. Anyway, she told Capitol Media Services, her group has its own battle to fight in persuading voters to kill voucher expansion in November. But Penich-Thacker said the “Stop Dirty Money’’ campaign is different.

She said the movement to use taxpayers’ dollars to send children to private and parochial schools is financed to a great extent by organizations whose donors are shielded from public view by state laws. A “dark money’’ group, Americans for Prosperity, filed suit last year to kill the Save Our Schools referendum, which seeks to give voters the last word on 2017 legislation expanding the voucher program to allow any parent to get state dollars to send a child to private or parochial schools. The legal challenge failed and the measure will be on the ballot as Proposition 305. But Penich-Thacker said fighting that lawsuit to preserve the referendum “burned up every bit of donations we had been getting in.’’ So, she’s ready to help remove the legal veil over the donors. “That dark money is where our problem arose,’’ Penich-Thacker said, saying there’s a “natural connection’’ between Save Our Schools and the initiative. That backing – and the volunteers that

Save Our Schools can generate – could provide the push to get the measure on the ballot. The proposal being pushed by former attorneys general Terry Goddard, Tom Horne and Grant Woods – the first a Democrat and the other two Republicans – would put a “right to know’’ provision in the Arizona Constitution, requiring public disclosure of the names of anyone who puts at least $10,000 into any campaign, whether for public office or a ballot measure. That’s already required now, but there’s an exception: Groups organized under the Internal Revenue Code as “social welfare’’ organizations can refuse to disclose their donors, leaving voters with a name – like Americans for Prosperity. What Save Our Schools provides is motivated volunteers. They gathered more than 110,000 signatures in less than 90 days last year to put the referendum on the ballot. The initiative to ban dark money could benefit from volunteers. It faces a stiffer hurdle, needing more than 225,000 valid

signatures on petitions by July 5 to put it on the November ballot. The issue of “dark money’’ has become an increasing problem for voters interested in finding out who is behind commercials, mailers and other campaign materials. In the 2014 gubernatorial race, for example, the $5 million spent on the general election directly by Ducey and Democrat Fred DuVal was eclipsed by the $9 million others spent trying to influence the race. Most of that cash flowed in Ducey’s benefit. The Republican-controlled Legislature has shown little interest in providing more information on donors. Lawmakers earlier this year approved a measure blocking cities from enacting their own financial disclosure laws. That most immediately voided an ordinance approved by 91 percent of Tempe voters. If the initiative is approved it would not just force disclosure in statewide and legislative races but again empower cities and towns to enact their own similar requirements.

Judge refuses ex-Mesa lawmaker’s bid to drop bribery case BY HOWARD FISCHER Capitol Media Services

federal judge has rejected a bid by a former utility regulator, his wife, a lobbyist and a utility executive to throw out criminal charges against them. In a ruling Wednesday, Judge John Tuchi sided with federal prosecutors in concluding that there’s nothing inherently unconstitutional about federal laws that make bribery a crime. More to the point, the judge said, the statutes are sufficiently clear to allow Gary Pierce and the others to defend themselves when the trial starts on May 30. Similarly, Tuchi refused to void another measure in the indictment, this one charging the defendants with defrauding the public of the “honest services’’ of their officials. The defendants had no better luck in convincing Tuchi that the jurors who will hear the case should not be told about the money that flowed from Johnson Utilities to the lobbying firm of R & R Partners. And the judge also said jurors will be able to see telephone records of contacts among the defendants. All this is crucial as federal prosecutors

seek to prove that George Johnson, who runs the water and sewer company that bears his name, illegally funneled money to Pierce, then a member of the Arizona Corporation Commission, in exchange for his vote on two issues before the panel. One involves a 2011 vote to increase the value of the company. That, in turn, allowed Johnson Utilities to collect more from customers. The other is a 2012 change in commission policy, crafted by Pierce, allowing the owners of small companies like Johnson Utilities to recover some of their personal income taxes through higher rates. The bribe, according to the indictment, was $31,500 provided by Johnson through lobbyist Jim Norton of R & R Partners, that eventually went to Sherry Pierce for what prosecutors say was minimal work. That money, the government charges, wound up in the couple’s joint bank account. In legal filings with the court, Norton’s attorney, Ivan Mathew, argued that statutes are unenforceable if they involve “guesswork and intuition’’ and fail to provide fair notice to people of what is and is not illegal.

House of Refuge to open education center The House of Refuge will open a new employment education center for its residents with a ribbon cutting at 9 a.m. Thursday, May 17, followed by an open house. The center, 6859 E. Ursula Ave., Mesa, will offer on-site, online classes to assist residents with vocational certificates necessary in various jobs. Once residents have completed the classes, they should be able to significantly increase their earning potential upon leaving House of Refuge for permanent housing, the organization said. The new facility will be equipped with a sophisticated kitchen to offer a healthy, nutritional brunch every day to the 150 children who call House of Refuge home at any given time. House of Refuge Executive Director Nancy Marion thanked community sponsors for making the “vital expansion” possible. They include: Patrick Peterson, cornerback of the Arizona Cardinals; PayPal Gives, Consolidated Personnel Services, Academy Mortgage, TSI Tower Services, Staples, The Wells Bells, Desert Sandwedges and Association of Power Ranch Entrepreneurs. House of Refuge is a faith-based, drug- and alcohol-free work program that provides casemanagement services, employment support and transitional housing.

Living Green workshops in Mesa focus on water conservation

You can collect more than 400 gallons of free water off the rooftop of a typical home from just half an inch of rain. You can learn valuable information like this at the Living Green Hydrate Mesa series taking place on Tuesdays, starting this week through May 29 at the Mesa Main Library, 64 E 1st Street. “Watershed Management Group (does) an outstanding job teaching this series, and even though conditions are dry now, it will rain again, I promise,” said Donna DiFrancesco, conservation coordinator with the Mesa Environmental Management & Sustainability Department. Tuesday’s session, “Hydrate Your Food,” will teach participants how to use rain tanks for rainwater harvesting to nourish vegetable and herb gardens throughout the year. Remaining sessions are: May 22 – How to assess your yard’s soil type and use typical household wastes like compost and graywater to build soil health; May 29 – How to use laundry-to-landscape systems to recycle graywater to nourish plants and reduce water bills. The program is presented by Watershed Management Group, a local nonprofit whose stated goal is to “create unity, peace and progress around water and watershed health" starting in the home. Walk-ins are welcome, but advance registration is encouraged: watershedmg.org/learn/ classes/hydrate. “Living Green” is part of a larger effort by Mesa to “to address environmental issues and concerns.” Information: mesaaz.gov/sustainability.

Chandler Library explores Western legends The true story of some of the Old West’s great figures will be explored in the Our Stories Speakers Series at Chandler Sunset Library, 4930 W. Ray Road, when “Arizona’s Wild Myths and Legends” is presented at 10:30 a.m. May 19. Arizona historian Jim Turner will look at people in popular myth, such as Wyatt Earp, Billy the Kid and John Wayne. A library spokesman said, “What do these famous characters have in common? They are not who we think they are because of the legends that have grown up around them.” “From 1860s dime novels to books, movies and television shows, writers have altered, exaggerated and sometimes lied about these folk heroes,” thee spokesman added. In “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance,” the newspaper editor says, “This is the West, sir. When the legend becomes fact, print the legend.” Presented by Arizona Humanities, the program will examine how legends grew and how they impact people’s view of the past.

will make it possible to better separate out contaminates from city recyclables loads so that shipments can meet China’s specifications. This will hugely reduce the recyclables going to landfills, he said, and make more money for recycling facilities and cities. That would give cities more money for public education aimed at achieving the 0.5 mark. “China can’t be replaced,” Whaley said. “I hear talk from people (in the recycling

business) that China will relax the 0.5, but I don’t believe that.” Municipal recycling officials stressed the need to step up efforts to educate citizenry on what’s proper to put in those blue recycling cans – and what’s not. Conaway reported that Chandler trash and recycling collectors have found strange material in recycling cans, including an automobile manifold. A goat carcass is the most bizarre thing workers at United Fibers have found among recyclables, Whaley said. But Conaway said that before the China decision wreaked havoc on her world,

THE SUNDAY EAST VALLEY TRIBUNE | MAY 13, 2018

the biggest problem recycling departments faced was residents’ putting plastic grocery-store bags into blue bins.

‘Wishful recycling’ must stop

Mesa’s Reyes called this behavior “wishful recycling.” “Plastic grocery bags can be recycled by taking them back to the store, but they cannot be put in recycling bins” because they “gum up the machines” that MRFs employ to process materials, Reyes said. Phoenix’s Giudice said one of the worst problems recycling departments face is many residents’ failure to put “valuable” aluminum in recycling bins – or their ten-

dency to put aluminum cans into plastic bags, which ensures that they go directly to landfills. Gilbert’s Flores isn’t optimistic that U.S. cities ever can reduce the contamination levels of recyclables down to China’s nearpure level but said they must keep trying to clean up their acts. The U.S. has been “living on borrowed time” with its highly contaminated recycling, Flores said, adding, “We must do the right thing.”

Rules may vary, but some recycling principles are same Though recycling rules vary from city to city – check your municipality’s website for details – some common dos and don’ts govern. The first rule: Material must be empty, clean and dry.

Plastics:

DO recycle detergent bottles, soda bottles, shampoo bottles and yogurt, margarine or sour-cream tubs. DON’T recycle plastic grocery bags, dinnerware, frozen-dinner trays or pool-chemical containers.

Glass:

DO recycle food and beverage jars and bottles.

DON’T recycle glassware, drinking glasses, ceramics, light bulbs, window glass or mirrors.

Paper:

DO recycle newspapers, magazines, junk mail, writing, computer and construction paper; paper bags; shredded paper and file folders. DON’T recycle facial or toilet tissue, diapers, paper towels, napkins or petfood bags.

Cardboard/Paperboard:

DO recycle dry food boxes, including cereal boxes, shoeboxes, packing boxes, egg cartons, tissue boxes and cake-mix and cracker boxes (remove liners). DON’T recycle greasy boxes or other soiled containers.

Metal:

DO recycle aluminum beverage cans, dinner trays, food containers and

foil, tin cans, empty aerosol cans and metal lids. DON’T recycle clothes hangers, paint cans, pesticide cans or hazardousmaterials containers.

Foam:

DO recycle food trays, including meat containers, egg cartons with the code symbol 6. DON’T recycle packing material.

*Scrap metal, appliances and electronics can be recycled by special arrangement with cities; they just aren’t allowed in blue cans.

people to help people because people do want to help. It’s just the little things.” One member of her “tribe,” Emily Leitzell of Mesa, said Harrolle is her rock. Leitzell, 39, a mother of two daughters, has been friends with her since they met 11 years ago. “She is, I would say, my hero, someone to look up to,” Leitzell said. “She makes you want to be a better person.” “She’s like, ‘You’re gonna be fine,’” Leitzell said. “She’s amazing, an absolute pillar of strength. I don’t know how she does it.” As for her children, Addie said, “She’s the best mom and dad ever.” She said she remembers “little bits and pieces” about her father, including the last time she saw him. Addie and Justice are looking forward to going to a camp in Washington, D.C., for youths who have lost parents. They will be in D.C. with their mother for National Police Week, when fallen law enforcement officers are honored during the

week of Mother’s Day. “It’s kind of cool when we go there,” he said. “We sit at this weird circular table. We talk about our family members that have passed away and everybody gets me. It’s like they understand.” Addie said she and her mother like to cook together. Justice loves riding a customized scooter and said his mother gives him “pointers when I’m doing a trick.” A baseball player, he said he and his mother also play catch. “I love spending time with her,” he said. “She’s easygoing. She’s pretty patient. She’s really kind and loving.” On Mother’s Day, Addie and Justice like to make their mom breakfast in bed. They also like making her cards. Justice said he does not remember his father very well, but his mom “tells me stories about him.” He is impressed with the work his mother does at the 100 Club. “She’s helped so many families,” he said. “I think it’s the best job ever.” To learn more about the 100 Club of Arizona, visit 100club.org.

“Simply, defining something as illegal is unconstitutionally vague,’’ he wrote. Anyway, Mathew argued, there is evidence that Sherry Pierce actually did work. So he said there can be no bribe. Tuchi did not explain his reasoning for siding with prosecutors and refusing to void the criminal charges. Separately, Tuchi rejected a bid by Woody Thompson, Johnson’s attorney, to preclude any testimony about his client’s income and net worth. “The only purpose would be to appeal to the jury’s passions by portraying Mr. Johnson as a rich, greedy developer and

utility owner out to make a additional profit any which way he could,’’ Thompson argued. “Such character assassination is not a legitimate reason,’’ he said. “This case should be decided on its merits, not based on the wealth of one of the parties.’’ Thompson had no better luck in convincing the judge that jurors should not be told about efforts by Johnson in 2007 and 2013 to sell the utility to the town of Florence. That sale did not take place, the attorney said, and all the events occurred “years before the date of the alleged conspiracy.’’ But he did get Tuchi to rule that jurors cannot be told about any investigations or notices of violations issued to Johnson

Gilbert author writes for those who lost a parent as a child BY PAUL MARYNIAK Tribune Executive Editor

or nearly a quarter-century, Mother’s Day has been a day of sad “what ifs” for Michelle Shreeve. The Gilbert writer can’t help thinking of the mother taken away from her by death in December 1993, when she was only 9 years old. “In the beginning, Mother’s Days were rough and hurt a lot,” Shreeve said. “I would send my mom flowers to be delivered to her gravestone at the California cemetery she’s buried in. I would also watch comforting motherless daughter or mother-daughter movies to help make it through the day, not to mention talk to her and cry.” Over time, though she got married and celebrated Mother’s Day on behalf of her mother-in-law and stepmom, too, that sadness lingered. This Mother’s Day is a bit different from the 23 that came before. Feelings of ac-

Gilbert author Michelle Shreeve was exited to receive the first batch of copies of the book she spent years researching.

complishment and hope are there. Last month, Shreeve’s book – inspired by

her mother’s death and the loss she’s dealt with for 25 years – finally hit the shelves. “Parental Death: The Ultimate Teen Guide” is based on her interviews with 90 people ranging in age from pre-teen to the mid-80s. It is book #56 in the “It Happened to Me Ultimate Teen Guide” series, published by Rowman & Littlefield and available at Barnes & Noble bookstores and hardback and digital forms on a variety of book-sale websites. While she had been “lightly researching the topic of parental death since the time of her loss, she began working on it in earnest in 2014. Over the last four years, Shreeve also was busy earning two master’s degrees, but she persisted in her interviews with people who lost their mom or dad at a young age. “I want to make sure kids, teens, young adults and grieving families know that they’re not alone in this, and that there are many others who have gone through parental death or are currently going through it like they are,” she said.

“When I was young and going through my own personal loss, I used to get scared and worried about my future,” Shreeve explained. “I would often think my life was in trouble because I didn’t have two parents to support me like most of my peers did. I would think to myself, there has to be someone out there who lost a mother/ parent like I did but was still able to make it. I knew that I couldn’t be the only person out there.” So, before she interviewed people, she did some research, discovering “many notable people – Nobel Prize Laureates, actors, athletes, musicians, philosophers and more who grew up to give something positive back to the world but who also lost a parent, like I did.” “I thought if they could make it through their childhood without one or both of their parents, and still pursue their dreams or give something positive back to the world, then maybe I could make it too.

First Lady lauds Gilbert teen’s stand against bullies BY RICK BARRS Tribune Managing Editor

alani Goldberg forever will remember the moment when First Lady Melania Trump mentioned her name in a Rose Garden ceremony last week at the White House. It was enough just to have been chosen to attend the event, but when the First Lady brought up Kalani and her bravery in the face of bullying at her Gilbert middle school, President Donald Trump turned around and shook her hand. “It was a great honor,” she said. “I was sitting behind him, and we didn’t talk before that, but it was great.” A 13-year-old eighth-grader who is an A-student and a member of the drama club, Kalani gained worldwide attention in February when an anti-bullying video she posted went viral. She got responses from as far away as Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Her shirt laden with Post-It notes containing the derogatory names her bullies called her at school – loser, ugly, stupid,

dumb, mistake, waste of space, idiot – she opens the short video calmly but winds up in tears. “One kid called me a whore for a while because I wouldn’t let him have a pencil,” she told the Tribune, explaining that she wouldn’t let him use it because other students hadn’t returned pencils that day. In addition to the name-calling, Kalani said one student punched her backpack so hard and so much that she need a new one and insulted her in ways that made it impossible for her to approach her teachers. “I couldn’t really tell the teachers because there was no evidence,” she said, explaining that the bullies “said it under their breaths. None of them came up to me directly.” Kalani wouldn’t name her public middle school for fear of damaging its reputation. Before the video ends, Kalani has added more Post-It notes to the bottom of her shirt with positive influences in her life on them: mom, dad, friends and family. “I like to read, I like to draw, I’m good at math. I’m a sister, I’m a daughter, I’m a

person,” she tells the world. “Every day I wear your words. I don’t want to wear your words anymore. Every day, you’re hurting me. Every day, you’re hurting each other. So please stop. Stop hurting me.” Kalani said her father, Jared, and her aunt, from the Washington area, attended the two-hour ceremony with her. The Rose Garden event was part of Melania Trump’s initiative on children’s issues, labeled “Be Best.” Trump said the three focuses of her initiative are social-media abuse, opioid abuse and well-being. The latter best fits Kalani, whose life was being made miserable by her tormentors. She said she made the video as an “emotional outlet” for her frustration, as a way not to feel helpless. The First Lady mentioned that social media often is used “negatively,” but “when children learn positive online behaviors early on, social media can be used in productive ways.” She lauded Kalani’s bravery for confronting her unwanted school adversaries in a creative way: “Thank you…for using

your experience to bring positive change.” Kalani said the bullying against her subsided once the video got widespread attention: “It definitely helped at school.” Yet she added that if her school has determined the identities the bullies since her anguished public outcry and if any of them have been disciplined, “I haven’t heard about it.”

Chandler natives Tysen Pao, left, and Ari Dehghani are both serving with the historic Navy 7th Fleet of the coast of Japan. Dehghani is a 2012 Dobson High grad while Pao graduated from Hamilton High School last year.

2 Chandler natives serving with historic Navy 7th Fleet Tribune News Staff

wo Chandler natives are serving the U.S. Navy halfway around the world in Sasebo, Japan. Petty Officer 3rd Class Ari Dehghani, a 2012 Dobson High School graduate, is a gas systems turbine electrical technician with the forward-deployed Naval Beach Unit 7, while 2017 Hamilton High grad Fireman Tysen Pao is aboard the mine countermeasures ship USS Warrior. Dehghani operates, repairs and performs organizational and intermediate maintenance on electrical components of gas turbine engines, main propulsion machinery, auxiliary equipment, propulsion control systems and assigned electrical and electronic circuitry up to the printed circuit and alarm warning circuitry. Proud to be serving in the Pacific, he fondly recalls memories of Chandler. “Growing up I learned that everyone has something different to offer,” said Dehghani. “Everyone in the Navy comes from someplace different.” Dehghani received the Navy Achievement Medal for his last tour. With more than 50 percent of the world’s shipping tonnage and a third of the world’s crude oil passing through the region, the U.S. “has historic and enduring interests in this part of the world. The Navy’s presence in Sasebo is part of that long-standing commitment,” a Navy

spokesman said. Commissioned in August 2012, Naval Beach Unit 7 was formed to combine the three forward-deployed naval forces detachments in Japan. Personnel from the command are responsible for manning and operating either the landing craft or managing landing operations from the beach. “NBU 7 landing craft serve an important function for the Amphibious Force 7th Fleet in being able to move personnel and equipment from ship to shore,” the Navy said. But it also requires a lot more. “Being forward-deployed is fast-paced, and it gives me the mentality of always being ready. I enjoy this mindset,” said Dehghani “The Navy made me a lot more mature. The first time I ever got promoted in a job was in the Navy.” “Serving in the Navy means doing what you have to do to meet the mission and getting your job done in the most efficient way possible while protecting our country, friends and families,” he added. Seventh Fleet, which is celebrating its 75th year, spans more than 124 million square kilometers, stretching from the International Date Line to the India/ Pakistan border; and from the Kuril Islands in the North to the Antarctic in the South.

And that gave me strength and motivation on my challenging days. I also used it as a therapeutic coping method.” As much as she learned from research, she learned even more in her interviews. “Each and every one of the participants story was heartbreaking, especially when realizing what they went through at such a young age,” Shreeve said. “There were many times when I had to walk away from the computer as my heart broke for each participant. … Let’s just say many tears were shed and went into this book that came from both the participants and myself.” The stories intertwined in the book are from people who lost one or both their parents at a young age. The advice at the end “are from those who lost their parents at a young age who are now at various different ages as they can reflect how their parent’s death impacted their life into the years and decades.” “In the book, I tell children and teens there are two ways you can handle your loss throughout the rest of your life: You can either use it as a handicap and say you don’t know how to do this or that because your parent wasn’t there to teach you, or you can learn things on your own, be there for yourself instead of dependent on oth-

ers and teach yourself the things your late parent left off teaching you.” “Something I’ve noticed over coping with the death of my mother over the past 24 years is, helping others feels like the right thing to do.” These days, Shreeve tries to avoid focusing on her loss. “I try to act like she’s still here,” she explained. “I talk to people about her, I watch movies that I think she and I would have probably watched together, I look at old pictures and I even talk to her daily. I’ve learned a lot about myself, some things the hard way... but that is why I wanted to share this book with other kids and teens who might be struggling with parental death. “I didn’t want them to feel like they have to face their loss alone and unarmed. This book should prove that they are indeed not alone and should give them a good idea on how to cope with healthy coping mechanisms.” Shreeve also compiled lists of “motherdaughter movies, motherless daughter movies, father-son books, fatherless son books and more.” What’s not in the book is at pinterest.com/Michelle_shreev. The book can also be found at rowman.com/ ISBN/9781442270879/Parental-DeathThe-Ultimate-Teen-Guide. Shreeve can be reached at fortheparentless@gmail.com. His responsibilities include operating and maintaining diesel engines and reduction gears used for ship propulsion and auxiliary machinery. “Being able to follow orders and listen is what I bring form my hometown to my Navy career,” said Pao. With a crew of more than 80, Warrior is 224 feet long and weighs approximately 1,300 tons. Warrior is one of the Navy’s 11 Avenger-class mine countermeasures ships that are designed to neutralize mines from vital waterways and harbors. There are four minesweepers in Sasebo that are on call to clear mines if necessary in the Indo-Pacific. “I joined the Navy to be forward-deployed and fight for my country,” said Pao. “The Navy has taught me how to be more disciplined, respectful and has helped me with some leadership characteristics.” “Serving in the Navy means giving the Navy a positive look and the whole of the United States a good, positive outlook,” he added.

Business comes first on Mother’s Day for these moms BY COLLEEN SPARKS Tribune Staff Writer

hen mom owns a restaurant, Mother’s Day can be a challenge. But for three East Valley women who each own an eatery, there’s no question about what comes first. After all, they figure, Mother’s Day can always be celebrated later. Two of these women are grateful their adult children blossomed into helpers at their restaurants while the third fondly recalls her kids’ contributions to her business when they were younger. Mairead and Fabrice Buschtetz, who co-own two Cuisine & Wine Bistro restaurants in Gilbert and Chandler, benefit from the labors of their three adult children. Nancy and Skip Chase, who co-own Chase’s Diner in Chandler with her husband Skip Chase, gets a hand from two of their three adult children. Christie Burnett and her husband David Burnett who own Hop Social Tavern in Chandler and three restaurants in Oregon with their friends Bud and Kathy Gabriel, employed their kids when they were younger. Mairead, Nancy and Christie light up when talking about their children. The ladies routinely work on Mother’s Day but celebrate either after their restaurants are done with the day or later. “We have made it a tradition to make our own traditions,” Nancy said. “We have worked many nights, weekends and holidays. We have celebrated Mother’s Day on the Monday or Tuesday after Mother’s Day, “It is a tradition we never questioned,” Chase added. “We celebrate on our time. A little silver lining to that is that we’ve always been able to enjoy our celebrations in a nice relaxed atmosphere without the crowds and noise of celebrating when everyone else is.” The Chases’ daughters Jennifer, 26, and Jaime, 23, manage the diner. Their son Matthew, 22, was once a waiter at the diner, now works in the electrical industry. That came in handy when the diner’s outdoor lighting needed to be replaced earlier this spring.

(Special to the Tribune)

Mairead Buschtetz relaxes with children Laura, Steven and Killian.

“Mother’s Day has always been one of my favorite days of the year to work at Chase’s,” Nancy said. “For years, we have bought long stem roses to give out to the ladies. It is usually one of the busiest days of the year for our restaurant.” She said she loves seeing servers or hosts bring a child to the diner’s vase of roses to pick one for their mother or grandmother while they’re eating. Mairead said she will work on Mother’s Day this year at the Chandler Cuisine & Wine Bistro, but plans to see her three adult children and husband after work for “some good food, champagne and good times.” “My daughter always brings me breakfast in bed for Mother’s Day,” she added. The Buschtetzes’ son Killian, 24, works in the front of the house at the Chandler Cuisine & Wine Bistro and is a first-level sommelier. Their daughter, Laura, 23, runs front at the Gilbert restaurant and their son, Steven, 26, runs the kitchen there. The Burnetts are planning many Mother’s Day celebrations with her children, grandchildren and her own mother this year. The fun started late last month when the couple attended a music festival in California, with their daughter Brittany Anderson and son Daniel. Over Mother’s Day weekend, the Burnetts will travel to the state of Washington for more family fun. “I would like to think that my mom

and my girls, when I celebrate Mother’s Day, it’s not just one day, I like to think that I celebrate her all year,” Christie said. “Being in the restaurant business, it’s the busiest day of the year and it’s not the day I want to go out. I’d rather do coffee and doughnuts with my grandkids.” She said she loves when her seven grandchildren make her macaroni necklaces and homemade cards and give her pictures of themselves. Christie said she enjoys seeing videos her children and grandchildren make for her on YouTube. “Mostly I just like to hang out with them,” she said. “That’s the best present they can give me…They can make me feel so good no matter how bad my day is.” Three of her four adult children worked for them in their first restaurant in Oregon. Having been raised in a restaurant family, all four are “very attuned” to what they see whenever they eat out – including if a table is not clean or a salt shaker is half full, Christie said. “They have all been brought up that way so they are all very observant,” she said. “They’re all very good tippers.” Mairead and Nancy enjoyed watching their children build their professional skills over the years. “My children were all between 13 and 14 years of age when they started working with me,” Mairead said. “Everyone has multiple sides to their character and

at home children act a certain way. “Outside of the home, facing strangers, you can see a very different side to their characters. When you work side by side, you often don’t have the opportunity to observe them. However, how rewarding it is to be seated in the dining room or perched on a bar stool and observe them interacting with customers, selling fine wines, explaining in detail how each dish is prepared,” Maidred continued, adding: “It is wonderful to see how much they retained from seeing their parents do the same job.” She said recently she helped Steven in the kitchen for two days. “How impressive it was to see him preparing six different dishes for one table, each with different cooking times, different presentations, but all served to the table at the same time,” Mairead said. “It is a form of art.” When the Chases opened their diner in October 1997, Jennifer had just begun kindergarten, Jaime was 2 and Matthew only a year old. “We put in a lot of long hours when the Diner was new and had to count on my parents, who were snowbirds, and a nanny to help out with childcare,” Nancy said, adding: “As the kids got older, quite often they could be seen working on homework in a booth after school, waiting for Mom to finish her work. Jen started assisting the hostesses, and it wasn’t long until she wanted to work. She insisted on getting her food handler’s card at 11, and the rest is history. “I’ve loved to watch all three kids in their interactions with both staff and customers over the years. Many regular customers have watched the kids grow up in the Diner and have become extended family to them.” She believes “part of who and what they are today comes from growing up in the atmosphere of our family business and learning to interact with adults at an early age.” Often on Sundays, “the entire Chase family was on the floor” working at the restaurant, Nancy added. The Chases met in the 1980s when See

they were both working in the fast-food industry and have worked together ever since. Nancy credits Skip for helping her juggle motherhood and running a business. “When asked to talk about what it takes to balance both business and family life I can reply without hesitation that I have the best partner in the world,” she said. “Our children have been a big part of this balance also. “They knew that Mom & Dad’s schedules could get pretty hectic, and they would always go with the flow. We would always try to make our work fun for them when we could.” The three “mompreneurs” said the skills they developed as mothers serve them well as restaurant owners. “Moms know how to multitask and that is a huge asset in the restaurant business,” Maidred said. Being a mom also “taught me how to be incredibly patient” – a virtue that can come in handy with employees at times. Christie looks at her employees as “a second family.” “It’s really evident when you open because you’re there nonstop and you care and you really care about each of them,” Christie said. “You find out who’s doing what,” she added. “I’ve prayed for employees that have had hard times. They’ve come in crying. They’ll either cry or tell me what’s going on; I guess that’s a mom role just wanting to make sure they’re okay.” She said she also never asks her workers to do anything she would not do herself

and she’s not afraid to wash dishes or do other small tasks to help them. “I think that that is a caring thing,” Christie said. “One employee calls me ‘mama bear.’ I think there’s definitely patience involved but there’s also just an understanding that everybody has stuff, stuff going on in their lives.” She added that she aims to “give them grace when life is hard on them.” Nancy agreed about that a mothers’ multitasking and nurturing skills have helped her in her business. “Being a mom has a lot in common with being a restaurant owner,” she said. “Just like there can be chaos in a family, there’s almost always chaos in the restaurant. Having empathy towards employees like you do with your kids, being able to multitask, the list goes on and on. “It’s really a two-way street,” she added. “Being a mom makes me a better restaurant owner, and being a restaurant owner has made me a better mom.” Cuisine & Wine Bistro is having a special Mother’s Day menu at its Chandler and Gilbert locations 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. today, May 13.

It’s the heart, not the gift that moms truly appreciate from us BY DAVID LEIBOWITZ Tribune Columnist

aybe the concept lost favor long ago, but my mother always believed that the best gifts were the ones you made by hand. In grade school, my brother Matthew and I would draw Mother’s Day cards for her every May, squiggly lines and stick figures, a yellow sun perpetually lording it over the skies. Then came middle school and shop class. The teacher, a burly man named Mr. Shupe, always seemed impressed with my woodworking skills – mostly that an adolescent boy could display absolutely no interest in the drill press, the table saw, the router and every other device in the room. Still, with his guidance, I somehow produced a single misshapen wall sconce, which for years my mother displayed on a living room wall like it was the Mona Lisa

hanging in the Louvre. I never asked why she would hang something so ugly because I knew the answer: The device has never been made which could have measured how little my mother cared about the opinion of others, especially on the subject of her sons’ gifts and gift-giving. If we made it, it wasn’t just good enough for Lynn Leibowitz. It was the best gift imaginable. As it always does, the years changed our family and our traditions. I moved away from the house in south Florida, first back up the Eastern seaboard, then here to Arizona. For years, gifts got sent in the mail, or delivered by a florist. Later, I migrated to Amazon. The easier the gifts became to give – just click and boom! – the less my mother seemed to enjoy them. I’d call her on Mother’s Day morning and she would thank me for what I’d sent, but as I think back, the better move would have been to give my

mother something less costly but requiring more effort. I get it now. It was never the gift itself my mother enjoyed. It was knowing that her sons had put forth some effort. Even if our efforts resulted in dismal failure – and trust me, those cards looked like Picasso in his blind period – my mother cherished every crayon stroke. Right up until the end, four days after Christmas 2017, when she died at age 71. This is my first Mother’s Day without her, and it has been an odd, emotional affair. Every morning for the past couple weeks, I’ve opened my email to face a digital bombardment. Every restaurant in a hundred-mile radius has invited me to take Mom to brunch. Nordstrom, Macy’s, and Target all have promised “the perfect gift for Mom.” Even the American Civil Liberties Union got in the act, inviting me to march in the streets to free Arizona

moms in jail because they can’t make cash bail. My mother, who always loved the antics of Sheriff Joe Arpaio, would’ve gotten a good laugh out of that one – unless I actually went. Then she would have told me to “get a freakin’ life.” My mom was outspoken like that. There were things in this world she loved, like my father, her husband of 54 years, Chinese food, the TV program “Law & Order” and handmade Mother’s Day cards. And there were things she hated, like Donald Trump’s arrogance and gifts given without thought. If this were her column, she would tell you that this year on Mother’s Day, take the extra time. Pick the flowers yourself, make brunch by hand. Skip the Hallmark card. Pen your own tribute. Your mom will love it, because you took the time to write it yourself. Happy Mother’s Day, Mom. We miss you every day.

Arizona has one of the best websites to track state spending BY DIANE E. BROWN & TOM JENNEY Tribune Guest Writers

s taxpayers in Arizona, our hardearned money contributes to a wide range of items: Employee salaries. Health care. Education. Public safety. Office supplies. The list goes on and on. While reasonable people may disagree on how our taxpayer dollars should be spent, we should all be able to agree that public accountability can help to ensure that state funds are spent wisely. And fortunately, according to the new report “Following the Money 2018” by the Arizona PIRG Education Fund and Frontier Group, Arizona has one of the best government spending websites in the country – openbooks.az.gov. Why is having a top-notch spending transparency website important? Senate Majority Leader Kimberly Yee, a distinguished champion of transpar-

ency in the Legislature, recently stated, “When citizens, organizations and appointed and elected officials have easily accessible information on how our hardearned taxpayer money is spent, we have a greater ability to identify and eliminate waste and duplication in government services.” Indeed. State-operated transparency websites provide checkbook-level detail on government spending, allowing citizens and watchdog groups to view payments made to individual companies, details on purchased goods or services, and benefits obtained in exchange for public subsidies. Through utilization of government spending transparency websites, citizens and government officials can monitor state spending to save taxpayer money, reduce potential abuse of public dollars and prevent corruption. States with strong transparency websites often realize significant financial returns on their investment including more efficient government administration, more competitive bidding for pub-

lic projects and less staff time spent on information requests. And in an increasingly digital world, online-accessible financial information is also a good way to enable citizens to participate in decisions about how resources are spent. What’s next for spending transparency? Although government spending websites across the country have come a long way in the past decade, the sites with which the average citizen interacts have also undergone significant transformation. States can help ensure their websites continue to evolve and are usable by including features such as a fully functional search bar and hosting an in-site viewing portal for citizens to interact with data without having to download a file, itemizing spending into manageable and understandable categories, as well as standardizing department and expenditure category descriptions to eliminate inconsistent abbreviations or misspellings that may complicate finding information.

Increasingly, Arizona is stepping up and meeting citizens’ expectations for accessible spending data through the state’s budget transparency portal. Arizona’s budget transparency website excels in “real-world” user-friendliness and functionality and deserves accolades for a financial highlights webpage that includes graphs intended to clearly illustrate government spending. Arizona is “near the top” of government spending websites. However, Arizona can be “at the top” by providing comprehensive information for all economic development subsidies, not just the Arizona Competes Fund, on its budget website. And it can ensure governmental and quasi-governmental entities – even those that are entirely financially self-supporting – integrate their expenditures into the online checkbook. -Diane E.

Red Mountain hosts spring football showcase BY BRIAN BENESCH Tribune Sports Editor

he idea was simple: host a joint football practice so college scouts can watch as many local high school players as possible. The execution was the tricky part. That’s where Red Mountain Coach Mike Peterson and his staff came in. Not long ago, Peterson and colleagues gathered in the war room to brainstorm ideas to showcase their athletes. Almost instantly, a joint football practice was proposed. “We decided that we wanted to have three other schools here. We made three phone calls and those are the guys who are coming. So, are they excited? I think that they are. Again, we only had to make three phone calls,” Peterson laughed. The three high schools that jumped at the chance to join Peterson’s squad for last Tuesday’s practice were Casteel, Williams Field and Queen Creek. Red Mountain’s vision was to get as many eyes as possible on some of the Valley’s top football players. “If we want more coaches to look at our guys, then we’ve got to have more guys,” the coach said. “We brought in more schools, and between the four of us, we’ve got a lot of guys that those college recruiters will be willing to take time out of their days and come to our practice.” The showcase event seems far from revolutionary, but it’s not exactly commonplace in Arizona. Peterson couldn’t recall a joint practice like this ever taking place in the area. “I’ve coached here since 1998 and I’ve never seen anything like it. They have

Four East Valley high school varsity football teams went through their paces last week at the unique joint practice hosted by Red Mountain High School in east Mesa.

them in California and Florida, but never in Arizona,” he said. While it only took a matter of hours to reel in the other schools, the battle was only beginning for Peterson and his staff to put together the showcase. As football injuries become more and more prevalent, proper precautions have to be taken – even in practice. “We jumped through some hoops with the AIA and the college compliance offices to make sure we were good,” he said. “Once it was a sanctioned event by the AIA, then the compliance offices were

more than happy to allow their coaches to come.” Peterson and company were eventually given the go-ahead with one important condition: no competing with the other teams. This meant the field was to be split up in quarters, with each school seemingly conducting its own drills and exercises. Still, the joint practice could be very beneficial for young athletes, especially ones hungry for college scholarships. Red Mountain’s showcase got prominent football figures from the area

talking. “I think it’s good that you see other programs. It keeps the energy level up when you are going against other schools,” said former Chandler Head Coach Jim Ewan. “It’s great for the colleges because they have limited contact time now. They get more bang for their buck.” The players from all four schools took the field at about 4:30 p.m. In the beginning, teams were split up by position groups. The offensive and defensive linemen were on the main playing field while skillposition players started on a practice field. Midway through practice, the groups switched fields, giving the college coaches and scouts chances to view every player in attendance. Overall, at least 20 colleges were represented at the practice, including notable schools like Alabama, Washington, ASU and Arizona. The event was a hit according to everyone at the high school, so it’s safe to assume these joint practices could become regular occurrences in the future. As is usually the case with most good ideas, Red Mountain’s event is already becoming a trend. Two more joint practices were held right after the four teams gathered in front of scouts in Mesa. “Real close after we announced ours, Saguaro organized one and Coach Hinds organized one,” Peterson said. “We reached out to all of them and started to cross-advertise it.” He added, “Gosh, it’s just so beneficial for the colleges.”

Chandler High girls track team wins state title BY BRIAN BENESCH Tribune Sports Editor

irls track and field programs from across the Valley gathered last week at Mesa Community College for the state finals, but the tournament showcased one special group of superstars – the athletes from Chandler

High School. For the third time in as many years, Coach Eric Richardson’s team brought home a Division I title. The girls’ 185 total points were more than enough to edge out second-place Desert Vista High’s 74.5 points. While Richardson has been the driving force behind Chandler’s run of

dominance, he was quick to pass the praise over to his student-athletes. “We’ve had a long line of success for our kids. They’ve built a legacy that people want to follow,” the coach said. “The young kids come in and there’s an expectation for them to do well. It’s a self-imposed pressure.” Jai Greunwald stole the show, winning

four individual state titles, including the triple jump, for Chandler as the senior went out in style. “Jai had just a phenomenal track meet,” Richardson said. “Any time you can win four events, it’s mind-boggling. Her doing that was just fantastic.” See

head boys coach at Mountain View. “I was able to see Fairchild (Wednesday’s javelin champion), and he did a great job. My javelin thrower wants to do the same stuff he’s doing.” The Toros’ Stone had reason to celebrate his own team’s performance as Sam Jarvis took home a title in the pole vault on the first day the meet. “We were very pleased with his performance. He really upholds the tradition of good vaulters at Mountain View. To be in that 15-foot vault club, it’s a really big deal. He’s on our top 10 list now. He just had an outstanding meet,” Stone said. The boys and girls of Mountain View pulled together two top 10 overall finishes at the event.

Joining Greunwald on the podium was Morgan Foster, in addition to several other Chandler athletes. Foster’s win in the girl’s 800 may have been the highlight of the tournament for the talented track squad. “Anything Morgan does right now is extraordinary after that devastating car accident she was in. She’s lucky to be alive, let alone back on the track. Everybody performed up to expectations,” Richardson said. Of course, Foster’s journey was not the only emotional storyline emerging from the Wolves’ terrific season. Longtime throwers coach Ted Williams passed away during the year. According to Richardson, his spirit was alive and well on Saturday. “He and I had been together for the better part of 25-30 years,” he said of the late coach. “It makes the win that much more special to get that done in his honor. We’ve certainly dedicated the season to him and everything he stood for.” It was a seesaw affair between Chandler and Desert Vista all tournament long. The Thunder girls finished second only

Every time I encounter it, I literally cry.” The Hale version is choreographed differently from the Broadway version, since the Gilbert theater is in the round, James said. “’Big Fish’ is a Broadway production, with the music and [script] coming from [Andrew Lippa and John August, respectively], with the actors and creative staff being local,” said Hale spokeswoman Taia Joy Flake. The novel on which the Hale production is based has been described as “Southern Gothic.” Set in Alabama like the novel and the musical, a 2003 movie based on North Carolinian Wallace’s book was directed by Tim Burton and starred Billy Crudup, Albert Finney, Ewan McGregor and Jessica Lang.

For David Blaine, it’s all about the fans’reaction BY CHRISTINA FUOCO-KARASINSKI Get Out Editor

ans of renowned magician David Blaine may think he would look up to Harry Houdini or Doug Henning, but he looked elsewhere. “My mother was my No. 1 inspiration,” Blaine said sweetly of Patricia White. “She taught me to read really good books, and to go to the library and read and research. Incredible writers—those were my inspiration, too. She was a teach-

er. She did a lot for people. When she passed away, everybody was devastated. She was amazing.” Blaine is promoting his forthcoming tour, which includes a Sunday, May 27, stop at the Mesa Arts Center. In late April, he appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. He performed a card trick after sewing his mouth shut in front of the host, members of The Roots, and actress Priyanka Chopra. See

“What you saw on Fallon is just a small dose of the show,” Blaine said. “The real stuff I do has to be seen live.” He melds feats of endurance with straight magic. Blaine has been working out four hours a day, and barely eating, to prepare for his tour. He can’t have any food in his stomach when he does a Hadji Ali-inspired trick with kerosene, a gallon of water and a lighter. A vaudeville magician known for his controlled regurgitation, Ali died after a bout of pneumonitis. He doesn’t want the same thing to happen to him. “I’m getting fit and preparing for the tour,” he said. Described by Howard Stern as the greatest, Blaine redefined magic after producing and direction his TV special Street Magic, when he was 23. Blaine’s primetime specials have shown him being buried alive in New York City for a week, encased inside a 6-ton block of ice for three days, surviving standing atop a 100-foot-tall pillar in Bryant Park for 36 hours without a safety net, enduring 44 days inside a transparent box in London on nothing but water, and living within 1 million volts discharged at him continuously for 72 hours from seven Tesla coils. The magic behind his career? Blaine’s mom. Blaine was intrigued by the magi-

cians he saw on street corners or on Coney Island in New York. White encouraged a 4-year-old Blaine to pursue his desired career. “I was lucky in the sense she let me pursue my passions,” he said. Blaine describes his success simply. He does the opposite of other magicians. “I am a performer of the street. I’m the complete opposite of ‘The World’s Greatest Magic,’” he said of the TV show. “I love watching people’s reaction. That only happens with a certain kind of magic. There’s that suspension of disbelief.” There’s no disbelief on Blaine’s side, however. He has nerves of steel. “I don’t just jump into things,” he said. “I practice. I rehearse. I meet with different people. If I just jumped in and created, I would have that nervous feeling, I’m sure. “Step by step I get all the failures out of the way before I start to approach the concept. When I see something, I do something. I don’t get nervous. It’s more of the excitement of trying to achieve it. For me, it’s not about the actual results. It’s the work that goes into it. That’s the driving force.” David Blaine, Mesa Arts Center’s Ikeda Theater, 1 E. Main St., Mesa, 480-6446500, mesaartscenter.com, 8 p.m. Sunday, May 27, $50-$126.

Michaelʼs growing fascination with the American Indians and concern for their access to medical care next moved the family to Pine Ridge, South Dakota, on the Oglala Lakota (Sioux) Indian Reservation. Michael served as the Medical Director of the Pine Ridge Indian Medical Center. He also took flying lessons and earned his Private Pilot certificate. In 1966, as the family was leaving South Dakota for Washington D.C, they adopted their first daughter, Elizabeth. Michael spent the next three years leading the Public Health Serviceʼs Rural Health Program and raising awareness of the state of healthcare in remote Native American communities. The family moved to Gallup, New Mexico, near the Navajo Indian Reservation in 1969; there Michael served as the Medical Director at Gallup Indian Medical Center for the next ten years. While residing in Gallup, Michael and Mary adopted a fourth child, Vicky, from Colorado.

He graduated from Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire and maintained close friendships with several classmates throughout his life. He often reflected favorably that Robert Frost read “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” to his English class: “ . . . The Woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep . . .”. Following Exeter, Michael earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics from Oberlin College in Ohio. His sisters, Catherine and Eleanor, also graduated from Oberlin, as did their future spouses, Robert Kingwell and Harry Poehlmann. Inspired largely by his father, an expert in circulatory and respiratory physiology, Michael earned a Medical Degree from Ohio State University.

From his birth on January 18, 1931 to his death, Michael inspired and blessed those around him with selfless dedication to his family, friends, patients and Christian faith. He was born in Berkeley, California, the oldest of three children, to Dr. Eric Ogden, M.D. and Olga Ivanoff Ogden. At the age of six, as a Tiger, he became an enthusiastic and devoted member of the Boy Scouts of America, a passion he would follow for several decades, earning the rank of Life Scout and later serving as a Scoutmaster for the troop in which his sons were members.

There he met Mary Hendricks, a nursing student from a farming family in northwestern Ohio, when he wandered into the wrong laboratory and she provided directions to the correct room. They married after graduation and moved to New York City, where Mary provided in home nursing care to families in Harlem and Michael interned at Bellevue Hospital in Manhattan. Michael and Mary moved frequently during the next few years, spending time in Fort Totten, North Dakota and Red Lake, Michigan before settling briefly in Seattle, Washington. There, Michael completed his residency, became Board Certified in Public Health, and they adopted their first son, Peter. They lived briefly in Ann Arbor, Michigan where Michael completed his Masterʼs Degree in Public Health Administration, and Pleasant Hill, California where they adopted their second son, Mark.

The family travelled often throughout the United States, usually in an International Harvester Travelall, with one or more of the children sitting between parents on the front bench seat, camping at various National Parks such as Yellowstone, Yosemite, Badlands, Grand Canyon, Zion and many others. Michael renewed his Private Pilot license and bought a 1949 Cessna 170A. He and Peter thoroughly enjoyed flying over the immense open spaces and breathtaking scenery of Monument Valley, the Grand Canyon, Mesa Verde, Canyon de Chelly and other natural marvels in the four corners area. Gallup provided Michael and his family the opportunity to develop close friendships with numerous neighbors and residents, which continue today. Michael and his family moved to The Lakes area of Tempe, Arizona, where he lived for the next 40 years. Perhaps to better address the angst generated by his teenage children, Michael completed a three-year psychiatric residency at Good Samaritan Hospital in Phoenix and thereafter specialized in the counseling and treatment of adolescent patients in Phoenix and Scottsdale. Following Maryʼs untimely death, Michael married Li Stark in 1993, whom he had met and known well at Oberlin College. Together, they operated Michaelʼs medical practice until they retired in 2012. Michael was an expert in the history of the peoples of the United Kingdom, Wales and Ireland, particularly in the monarchies of those countries. Raised in the Anglican Church, Michael was a devout and life-long Episcopalian, firmly believing in the Trinity and often serving in a vestry role as a warden or senior warden, most recently at the Church of the Epiphany in Tempe. Michael is survived by his sisters Eleanor and Catherine, his children Peter, Mark, Elizabeth and Vicky, his grandchildren Lauren, Andrew, Jasmine, Jack, Andrew, James, Selina, Duke, Aristeen and Cherie and his great-granddaughter, Zoey. He was predeceased by his parents, Eric and Olga, his first wife Mary, and his second wife, Li. Michaelʼs family would like to thank the doctors, nurses, caregivers and staff at Friendship Village for their assistance, guidance and support. They also thank the spiritual counselors and care providers at Hospice of the Valley, for their calm, unvarnished perspective and advice to Michael and his family, towards the end of his life. Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, May 19, 2018 at the Episcopal Church of the Epiphany, 2222 South Price Road, Tempe, Arizona, 85282, followed by a gathering and celebration of Michaelʼs life at the home of Mark Ogden. In lieu of flowers, Michaelʼs family would appreciate donations to the Episcopal Church of the Epiphany.
