TucSon SalVaGE – Full Screening and Book ReadingFeaturing a live reading by author Brian Smith.Tucson Salvage: Tales and Recollections from La Frontera is a new book based on Brian Jabas Smith’s award-winning columns for the Tucson Weekly. Offering sharp, empathic commentary on diverse subjects, Smith channels the men, women and trans not usually seen or valued in society, and in doing so, holds a mirror to us all. Tucson Salvage the Documentary is a 30-minute meditation on five humans profiled in Smith’s columns, co-written by Brian Jabas Smith & Maggie Smith. Forged by adversity and united by humanity, the people in this documen-tary allow us to witness those we might never approach and hear them tell their own life stories. Joined by musical guest Lawrence Zubia and creative non-fiction authors Jesse Sensi-bar, Margaret Regan and Amy Silverman, this Tucson launch party promises to be gritty, self-reflective and unforgettable.THE DOCUMENTARYTucson Salvage the Documentary is a meditation on five hu-mans living on the margins, below the poverty line, in Tucson Arizona. All five individuals, man, woman and trans, have suf-fered at the hands of traditional society, and had to escape the mental or physical imprisonment of their bodies, their attitudes and their spirits. Many are literal ex-cons, recovered junkies, but none are passive victims. This is an intimate, unflinching look at stories rarely seen on the big screen – as much about fighting as suffering, transcending as falling prey to their own pain. Gritty, raw and emotionally challenging, Tucson Sal-vage lets you in close to people not usually seen or valued in society.This is a free event. No Registration is required.

get Out and take a Walk

Faith-Lift Meetings When was the last time you picked up a Bible to explore what Faith is? This world around us seems to have less Faith. Why? Would you like to see what God has to say about Faith? Here’s your chance.

Beginning Friday, March 6 at 7pm come to the PCC building to the meeting room. I’m a resident of the PCC and I want to share with my community what God can do to give you a Faith-lift.

My name is Rocky Gale and I have over 40 years of ministry and love to help people. Bring your Bible & notebook. There will also be handouts. You will be happy you came. All are welcome. (Nondenomi-national)

There are many benefits to getting out and taking a walk. Matter of fact, as we age, walking becomes more im-portant. In today’s world we tend to have a more sedentary lifestyle. We sit to eat, to watch tv for hours, to read, and to look at our devices for long pe-riods of time. The longer we do not move, the more harm is being done

and the aging process accelerates.A sedentary lifestyle is dangerous for your health. The

effects of a sedentary life style are poor circulation, obe-sity, heart disease, osteoporosis, diabetes, depression, and the loss of muscle mass. The loss of lean muscle tissue makes activities of daily living much more difficult to perform and can cause pain. One way to live longer and healthier is to get walking.

Walking gets your circulation and lymphatic systems moving. This means that the toxins sitting in your lym-phatic system will be moving out of your body instead of just sitting there accumulating more and creating ill-ness. The Journal of American Geriatrics Society stated that both women and men 65 years or older would lower

their risk for cardiovascular disease if they walked for four hours or more each week.

Another benefit is that walking burns calories and can help you to lose weight. It is a great exercise for your whole body. Walking increases the supply of glucose and oxygen to the brain.

Researchers at the Wakayama Medical College in Ja-pan did an experiment on 83 people who had mild hyper-tension. They were to walk at least 10,000 steps each day for 12 weeks. Those who completed their daily 10,000 steps lowered their blood pressure levels as well as expe-rienced an increase in stamina.

The reason I write this article is that I watched her my mother’s health fail in later life. She walked at least a mile every day up until she was 84. Two months later she began falling and hypertension developed. She died a few years later. Her quality of life in her last few years was awful as her body weakened from being sedentary. This can be avoided. Get out and walk. Walking is free. It will bring joy and actually give you more energy!

In honor of St. Patrick’s Day, I had planned to write about green wine. However, upon researching

green wines, I did not find any particular ones in the world that sounded delicious and interesting. Instead, I have opted to write about how to pair wines and food with focus on green salads. The goal in pairing food and wine is to accentuate the fla-vors in one another to make both taste better. If you want to truly bring out the most savory flavors of both the food and the wine, here are a few rules of thumb to follow.

Sweet with Heat - Pair spicy foods with wines that have some residual sugar.Smoke with oak – Pair grilled or charred foods with wines that have been aged in oak.Match Flavor and Texture – Pair rich foods with rich wines.

What Grows Together Goes Together - Pair foods of a particular ethnicity or region with wines from the same place.Again, this article is dedicated to greens so here are a few yummy salads and how you might choose to pair them with wine to get the most enjoyment out of both.Classic Tossed Salad – Pair the wine with the dressing. For example, vinegar dressings work well with acid-ic, angular, sometimes citrusy wines like Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, and Pinot Grigio. When the dressing is creamy such as Russian, Thousand Island, or Ranch, then Chardonnay, Semillon, and Marsanne stand up well.Caesar Salad – This is reasonably easy to pair so long as it does not have too much of an anchovy kick. A

lightly oaked Chardonnay is a good match, but a slightly fuller-bodied one if the chicken is char-grilled. Oaked Sauvignon Blanc and dry rosé also work well. Happy tasting!

A new Home for YrMC Preventive Medicine and Outpatient Physical rehabilitation

YRMC’s Wellness Center – home to Preventive Medicine (Pendleton Center) and Outpatient Physical Rehabilitation in Prescott – has moved to a newly remodeled location at:

1112 Iron Springs RoadPrescott, Arizona 86305Pendleton Center in Prescott: (928) 771-5794YRMC Physical Rehabilitation Services in Prescott: (928) 771-5131

These YRMC services were relocated to make way for a new health center and multi-level parking garage under con-struction at YRMC West in Prescott.

“YRMC West is evolving into a state-of-the-art medical and wellness campus,” states Frank Almendarez, MHSA, Chief Administrative Officer at YRMC. “We’re excited that our community will have access to a new health center that supports health, prevention and wellness. We’re also build-ing a multi-level parking structure that will add many new parking spaces to the YRMC West campus.”

Some of the relocated services include:Adult Fitness Programs (e.g., personal training, fitness •

classes and more)Diabetes Education• Outpatient Physical Rehabilitation Services (e.g., Occu-•

pational Therapy, Physical Therapy and Speech Therapy)

Preventing the Parking BluesDuring the construction, YRMC encourages you to allow

extra time for parking if you are going to the West Campus in Prescott.

“Construction at our Prescott campus is accelerating,” said Almendarez. “This progress is good news, but it also means some changes for the people we serve.”

YRMC encourages people going to the West Campus in Prescott to allow extra time for parking.

“If it’s possible, I suggest that the person with the medi-cal appointment be driven to the hospital entrance,” said Almendarez. “We also have volunteers available to shuttle people from the parking lot to the hospital entrance.”

“We appreciate the patience and understanding of the people we serve during our expansion,” said Almendarez. “We also want to recognize our employees and volunteers for the positive attitudes they have shown during the con-struction. It’s an honor to work with such a great group of people.”

the sky this MonthWelcome to our night-time sky.

Please enjoy this month’s tidbits of knowledge. We are lucky to live in a dark-sky area where the heavens can shine through. I hope you enjoy the sky and perhaps learn a thing or two. Happy star gazing!leap Into March – Assuming you follow the Gregorian Calendar. Cal-

endars probably had their beginning as a tool to predict when seasons would occur (for agriculture) or as a way to count a long duration (e.g., three moons ago). People who lived in colder climates needed to know when they should plant their food after winter. Since the sun drives the seasons, these people needed to orient the calendar based on the earth’s movement around the sun – the solar year.

The solar year is fairly complicated because there is no even number that divides into 365.25, which is the ap-proximate number of days in a solar year. In tropical cli-mates, where seasons are less material, people could rely on the easier method of counting new moons – the lunar month. They simply picked twelve lunar months which roughly equals a year (less about 11 days). Since the lu-

nar month does not coincide with the solar year, the lunar months shift through the seasons over time. For example, the Islamic month of Ramadan arrives about 11 days ear-lier each year (compared to the solar year).

In some cases, civilizations would add a leap month ev-ery once in a while, to bring the lunar calendar back into alignment with the solar calendar. Leaping is actually what brought the Gregorian calendar into existence. In order to compensate for the extra ¼ day per year, Julius Caesar reformed the existing solar calendar by adding a leap day (February 29) every four years. Caesar’s calendar became known as the Julian Calendar. The calendar was pretty good, but the solar year is actually 11.25 minutes shorter than 365.25 days. By 1582 AD, this error brought the year 10 days out of alignment and was causing problems with the calculation of the date for Easter.

Astronomers further refined the leap year calculation: A leap year will occur in any year divisible by 4, but not dur-ing century years unless the century is divisible by 400. Complicated enough? In any case, that was the calcula-tion and in 1582 AD, Pope Gregory XIII made it so.

PV Chamber report

– Marnie Uhl, IOM, ACE President/CEO Prescott Valley Chamber of Commerce

The Governor made the Prescott area one of his stops as he presented his State of the State address to cities, towns and our business communities. He had wonder-ful things to say about the Quad-cities and the economic growth it is seeing with the Prescott Regional Airport and Yavapai College. We appreciate the City of Prescott for hosting and thank my colleague at the Prescott Chamber, Sheri, for opening this up and including the entire quad-city region. Let’s keep this great momentum going.

We are pleased with the opening of the Iron Cask Res-taurant in the Crossroads Center and are looking for-ward to the opening of the new Colt Grill located in the Entertainment District. (As of this writing it was not yet open.)

We see excavation work at the corner of Long Look and Glassford Hill Rd. This is the site of the new Parke Place Talking Glass development and is a partnership with Dorn Homes. It is a single level rental home com-munity. One of the things we hear much of is the lack of rental properties. This will fill that need and give more options in our rental housing market. Amenities will include duplex units, private back yards, a dog park, community park and common areas. There will be one, two and three bedroom units.

On the hospitality side, an announcement was made for a new hotel to be built on the corner of Main St. and Florentine across from the Findlay Toyota Center. The property is a new TownePlace Suites by Marriott which is an all-suites brand that offers full kitchens and spacious rooms.. It is a joint venture with Beck Leg-acy Group, a successful family business and owners of multiple hotels and community projects including the Prescott Valley Hampton Inn and Suites.

The Chamber recently participated in the Humboldt Unified School Expo. This was a great way for us to reach out and meet new residents in our community and share resources and information with them as they got to know our terrific schools in Prescott Valley. As we say...HUSD. you rock!!

This month brings the first day of spring and like the flowers that bloom, our community is blossoming.

See you around town!

It’s Almost Spring! Spring is almost here. Soon the trees and shrubs will be blooming. Soon we will see tulips and daffodils

and soft green blades of grass. As spring approaches my thoughts turn to designing jewelry in pastel colors. I look for gemstones in soft pinks and greens and blues. I incorporate flowers and butterflies into my designs. I move away from weighty styles and move toward light airy designs. Here’s a little about the gemstones I plan to use in my spring jewelry.Rose Quartz – Its soft pink tones are perfect for spring. In addition, rose quartz is often called the “love stone” as it is believed to generate strong love energies and to help find new love.Ruby Zoisite – It has a soft green background with small bursts of ruby that look like flowers. This unusual stone is thought to bring positive and happy feelings.Blue and Green Kyanite – These translucent stones

come in quiet blues and greens with a subtle shimmer. Kyanite is believed to bring loyalty, honesty and tran-quility as well as to diminish anger and confusion.Prehnite – It is a delicate translucent apple green, a color unique to this stone. Prehnite is known as the stone of unconditional love. It is also believed to help sufferers of claustrophobia.Rock crystal Quartz – This is the clear variety of quartz and is considered the ideal. It is thought to en-hance concentration and unlock memories.Blue lace agate – This variety of agate has bands of soft blue in a wavy or lacy pattern. It is believed to be cooling and calming and bring peace of mind. It is also thought to neutralize anger, infection, inflamma-tion and fever. Combined with sterling, bronze or copper wire, these gemstones will appear in jewelry that is sure to add a touch of spring to your wardrobe.

glAuCOMA fACts vision Information from Antone Optical

Glaucoma is one of the most insidious diseases of the eye. With virtually no symptoms, glaucoma is often called the “sneak thief of sight”. With the aging popula-tion, the impact of glaucoma is expected to increase in the coming years.

Everyone is at risk for glaucoma. One in 200 people age 50 and under have glaucoma. By age 80, one in 10 people have glaucoma. 2.2 million Americans presently have this disease.

If untreated glaucoma can cause blindness. It is the second leading cause of blindness in the world. Ap-proximately 120,000 Americans are presently blind from glaucoma. Once vision loss from glaucoma oc-curs, it cannot be reversed.

There are often no symptoms with glaucoma - up to 40% of vision can be lost without a person even notic-ing since vision loss begins with the peripheral vision. However, vision loss can be diminished with early diag-nosis and treatment.

During a comprehensive eye exam, your optometrist or ophthalmologist checks for glaucoma and other eye diseases. It is imperative that you have regular yearly eye exams so diseases such as glaucoma can be detected early, before serious vision loss occurs. Although you

may feel you are seeing well and don’t need to have an exam yearly, these tests are critical for preserving your vision.

Don’t put it off! Call for your yearly exam appoint-ment today!!!

Preparing and Planting for spring seasonAs I write this, our nights still dip below the freezing mark

and our fireplace is on every night yet, the days are warming and the days are longer. Ah, Spring. Spring will officially be-gin this month but as we PCC residents know, we still don’t plant summer crops yet due to frost factors. If you are lucky enough to have a warm place to start seedlings, you are very lucky. My cats think they are cat munchies so until I build a greenhouse, no indoor seedlings for me. What we all can do at this point though is to start preparing our gardens and greenery for a beautiful Spring showing.

Many of us in the neighborhood have fruit trees and while they have been around for many years, do not take them for granted. Show them some love by giving them phosphorus to increase the flowers they bear. As a matter of fact, all your flowering trees and bushes need help to keep those flowers coming. Last year I didn’t use any and both my Red bud and my Forsythia failed to flower for me. I am not making the same mistake this year. A trip to the nursery and a few bags of fertilizer high in phosphorus has been put into the soil so I can see the beautiful blossoms this year.

My herbs are already starting to show green and look like they’re going to do well. I put coffee, tea remains, and other organic material in the bed during Winter, which has all bro-ken down already, feeding the soil with nutrients. While this

is great for the soil, I always add a bag of compost to dig in it every year to help amend the soil. I finally cut back all my plants to the nib to encourage growth. I leave most of the dried plant material on during the Winter for food and coverage for small critters.

I also sowed some California poppy seeds in the yard for a future, colorful display and will plant some cooler weather seeds later this month, probably some arugula and spinach to start on my fresh salads, calendula to make my skins salves, and some portulaca for more vivid color around my beds. Tomatoes, peppers and other Summer crops will be planted in May and soon I’ll see my yard explode with color and goodies. I am already seeing some buds on my peach tree and am excited about my future fresh peaches. But, when the temps threaten to go low, I’ll make sure it’s covered so I don’t lose my fruit before it’s formed. Keep an eye out for the nighttime weather and cover plants when needed.

By taking care of your soil and cleaning out your beds you are giving your gardens a great start for this new year. I hope you all enjoy your flowers, your fruits and all the other wonders you gather from your gardens.

understanding Your escrow (impound) Account

When you buy a home, every year you need to pay for home insurance and property taxes. When the lender pays these on your behalf, it’s called having an “escrow or impound, account”.

Here is how an escrow account works. You buy a house and get a loan with an escrow account. Every month you make a mortgage payment, 1/12th of the annual home insurance and property tax expenses is set aside in an escrow account. When your home insur-ance is due (which is typically one time per year) your lender will pay it to your Insurance Company. When your property taxes are due the lender pays those on your behalf. In Yavapai County property taxes are due November 1st and May 1st every year.

So how does this money get accounted for? Every year your lender will send you an Annual Escrow Ac-count Statement. This is going to outline 2 things. First it shows how much you paid into the account and what was paid out on your behalf, over a 12-month period. The amount paid out gets subtracted from the amount put in, leaving either an excess or a short fall. If you are short, you have the choice to pay it or have it

added to your mortgage payment and “re-paid” to your lender over a period of time. If there is an excess, your lender can only have a cushion of two months each, for taxes and insurance and must refund the difference.

The second thing it outlines is the monthly escrow amount for the upcoming year. For a 12-month period, it will show what your monthly escrow payment will be and when and how much, will be paid out in the future for home insurance and property taxes.Traci Ranic is a Mortgage Broker with Frontier Fi-nancial of Arizona and has been originating mortgage loans since 2001.

How glaucoma Patients Benefit from tHCQuestion: How can marijuana THC and Hemp CBD treat Glaucoma?answer: Cannabis treats all eye disorders very success-fully with regular use. Glaucoma is a medical qualifying condition to obtain a medical marijuana card in Arizona and every medical marijuana state.

Glaucoma is a common eye condition that causes optical nerve damage. This eye disease affects three million Americans, globally the figure is close to 60 million. Glaucoma is recognized as one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness. Evidence increasingly suggests glaucoma is considered to be a neurodegen-erative condition. Glaucoma has a connection to other neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s disease. A precise cause of glaucoma remains a mystery to elude the scientific community.

Treatment options are based on reducing the intraoc-ular pressure that influences onset and progression. In fact, the only way to prevent vision loss or eventual blindness is to lower the intraocular pressure (IOP) to a safe level to halt damage caused by the high pressure levels.

To understand how cannabis works to treat disease one needs a little knowledge of the Human Endocannabinoid System (ECS). The ECS consists of cannabinoid recep-tors located throughout your body. When these recep-tors are deprived of cannabinoids, we get chronic health conditions. Each time we use cannabis products the re-ceptors fill up, treating and often reversing disease over time. With glaucoma, cannabis lowers the intraocular pressure.

Historically THC (the psychoactive cannabinoid) re-duces eye pressure 25-30%. The only way to get THC was to smoke cannabis every few hours to keep eye pres-sure down. When we smoke cannabis, we receive only 10% of what the plant has to offer.

Here are how two of our patients use cannabis to treat glaucoma:

Nancy is 101-year-old women who is blind from glau-coma. The drops her doctor gave her burned her eyes with each use and gave her headaches. At the sugges-tion of a family member she decided to try a cannabis treatment. She tried to inhale cannabis, but it made her dizzy. Instead, her caregiver cooked her daytime canna-bis (Sativa) with butter in a small crockpot and her night-time cannabis (Indica) in a second crock pot. Cooking on low and slow up to 30 hours all the medicine in the plant transfers to the butter. She strained the mixture to separate the butter from the plant. She then purchased two box mixes from the grocery store, a blueberry muf-fin mix and a brownie mix. The daytime canna butter was used to make blueberry muffins in the very small cup cake pans and the nighttime canna butter was used to make brownies. Nancy ate a small muffin each morn-ing with breakfast and a small brownie after diner each night. Nancy said the difference is now she can see her husbands face where before she could not.

Alex is 67 years old. His father and both brothers went blind from glaucoma. He grinds his cannabis flowers in a coffee mill and puts it into a pepper shaker. He shakes cannabis on everything he eats starting with his cereal in the morning. This gives Alex enough relief he can work, and his glaucoma has not progressed in 10 years.

When we eat cannabis, we feel relief for 10-12 hours without feeling high from the THC. If we do not heat the plant above boiling point, there is no psychoactivity.

Dog of the Month

Cat of the Month My name is YODA and I am a 4-year-old male Bombay Breed Cat, which is rare in these parts. I have been told that I have beautiful gold eyes and handsome black, shiny coat like velvet and I walk with a sway reminiscent of the black panther. I am intelligent and trainable if you have the patience and time for me.I am shy until I get to know you, then I am affectionate and very friend-ly. When I feel relaxed in my new home, I may be your lap kitty and PURR YOU A LOVE SONG.I tested negative to feline disease, I am neutered, my shots are current and I am litter box trained.Unfortunately, I was born deaf, no sense of smell and low vision but I can see shadows & it appears that I can taste as I am quite finicky about my food. There is no adoption fee if you take me in as a permanent foster and UAF will assist with the costs of any medical care.I would need a quiet, stable home where I can explore and learn my way around as long as furniture is not moved and my food, water and litter box are kept in the same location.If you can find room in your HEART to give me a second chance with a good, loving, INDOOR, FOREVER, home, I will give you all the UNCONDITIONAL LOVE I have to give and I will be your loyal companion.To meet/adopt/visit me, please contact Suzy with UAF, 928-848-6191 or [email protected]

JASMINE is a 2-year-old, female, Pit Mix with a short, black coat. She was found on Hwy 89. When found, she was very thin and apparently had some pups somewhere. We took her back to the place she was found to try and find her babies, but no luck. We drove around town asking people if they recognized her and posted her on social media, but no one stepped up to claim this SWEET girl.Jasmine is a medium sized girl, she walks great on a leash and gets very excited when you ask her if she wants “To Go” and she loves to ride in a carJasmine has been spayed, shots are current and she has a microchip.If you can give this sweet girl a good, loving, indoor/out-door forever home with a fenced yard, she will be your BEST FRIEND and your LOYAL COMPANION. A home check is required.To meet/adopt Jasmine, please contact AARF Animal Rescue at 928-925-7219.
