Specialists fly to fight COVID-19 BY TOM SCANLON

Respiratory therapists are fast becoming the elite heroes of the COVID-19 crisis, as the disease can impact the most critical function of the body: breathing. Enter the likes of Glendale’s Jessica Stingle. Respiratory therapists use measures like intubation and ventilation to stabilize critically ill COVID-19 patients struggling for oxygen. Stingle’s already heroic path rose to a higher level last week, when she and three other Banner Health respiratory therapists deployed to help fellow Banner Health team members in northern Colorado, a COVID-19 “hot spot.” A meat-packing facility in Greeley, 60 miles north of Denver, closed after a coronavirus outbreak killed several workers.
“Things are going well,” she said from Colorado. “I have been able to successfully extubate four patients. I have learned so much and am happy to be here.” Hospital staff around the country have caught COVID-19, with some dying from the disease. “I am not worried about Jessica Stingle of Glendale and other Banner Health respiratory thera- it,” Stingle said. “I always pists arrive in Greeley, Colorado, to assist an area that has been hit hard have the risk of catching by COVID-19.

I always wear Greeley’s city manager called the number proper PPE (personal protective equipof cases in his city “shocking.” ment) and feel protected,” Stingle said.

The financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is already being seen in state unemployment—more than 100,000 Arizona residents have filed for unemployment assistance. Though Gov. Doug Ducey’s order allowed restaurants, grocery stores and other “essential businesses” to remain open, most local businesses were ordered to close March 31. The resulting plummeting sales are like-
ly to put a major dent in the city of Glendale’s revenue stream. The 2019-20 Glendale budget projects $117 million in sales tax, just over half of the city’s total projected revenue of $230 million (all revenues except property tax). Glendale general fund expense projections totaled $222 million. “We are continuing to evaluate the fiscal impact to the city budget brought on by the current COVID-19 pandemic,” said Mat Droge, a Glendale spokesman. He said Kevin Phelps, the Glendale city
manager, has instituted a temporary hiring freeze (“except for critical positions”). “And we have also suspended any noncritical spending until further notice. The city is monitoring the situation closely to determine if additional financial measures may need to be taken in the future,” Droge said. He noted there is a two-month “lag” in receiving portions of sales tax. “Glendale won’t be able to see the full impact of the closures on March reve-

nue until at least the middle of May,” Droge said. Asked about potential cuts in staffing, Droge again said it was too early to determine. “We are continuing to evaluate the fiscal impact to the city budget brought on by the current COVID-19 pandemic. Until we gather more information, it is premature to comment on our fiscal year 2020-21 budget,” he said. While economic issues could be discussed during the next city council meeting 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 28, a workshop specifically dealing with the city budget is scheduled May 5. The next fiscal year starts July 1. The federal government has pledged assistance to cities, though only cities with populations above 500,000 are to receive direct assistance. Glendale and other smaller cities will receive a yetto-be-determined portion of federal assistance sent to the state. But, according to Droge, Glendale is expecting around $3 million from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act. Congress overwhelmingly passed the CARES Act, which was signed into law by President Donald Trump March 27. “This over $2 trillion economic relief package delivers on the Trump administration’s commitment to protecting the American people from the public health and economic impacts of
COVID-19,” states the U.S. Treasury Department’s website. According to information at that site on local and state government assistance, “The CARES Act requires that the payments from the Coronavirus Relief Fund only be used to cover expenses that: are necessary expenditures incurred due to the public health emergency with respect to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID–19); were not accounted for in the budget most recently approved as of March 27, 2020 (the date of enactment of the CARES Act) for the state or government; and were incurred during the period that begins on March 1 and ends on Dec. 30.” According to Droge, Glendale expects $2 million in public housing assistance, “in addition to our regular allocation of Community Development Block Grant and Emergency Solutions Grant money and specifically for COVID-19.” Another $1 million is expected from the Federal Transit Administration, again related to COVID-19. “We are evaluating the requirements and allowable use of each grant, and until we gather more information, it is too early to determine the use of the funds,” Droge said. “We are also continuing to evaluate COVID-19 federal and state grant funding opportunities and we plan on applying for these grants.”

for the opportunity to be able to help.” Stingle and her colleagues will be at Banner’s Greeley hospital for a month. She said she treated several patients with COVID-19 at her usual workplace, Banner Boswell Medical Center in Sun City, which prepared her to help her colleagues in northern Colorado. “Every case seems to be a little different,” she said. “We care for these people and make sure they are getting the best care they possibly can from us and our nursing staff. We work one on one with the nurses and physicians.” Stingle and her fellow respiratory therapists flew to Greeley on a private charter jet donated by Swift Aviation. The private flight kept Banner team members isolated from the general public and allowed them to arrive at North Colorado Medical Center faster. “I’m excited to go and help them and be there for our team because we are all one,” Stingle said. The four respiratory therapists arrived as five Banner registered nurses returned to the Phoenix area after a two-week assignment. They were part of a team of 10 registered nurses that arrived in Greeley March 29. One of the nurses, Jessica Flake, treated patients with COVID-19 in the progressive care unit, which is just below the intensive care unit. During the pandemic, ICU is being reserved for patients who must be intubated, which is where a ventilator takes over breath-

ing operations for the patient. “It has been physically demanding and tiring, as these patients are very sick,” Flake said in an April 2 Facebook post. “I’ve seen more intubations and intubated patients in two shifts then I have my whole nursing career; including nursing school. “These poor people are fighting for their life, without their loved ones by their side.” In these life-threatening situations,
respiratory therapists like Stingle are crucial to help patients survive. “I have knowledge of what’s going on in the lungs and how to save people,” Stingle said. Stingle said she felt honored to be part of the mission to the COVID-19 hot spot. “We’re always there for our patients, no matter what,” Stingle said. “We care for these people and make sure they get the best possible care.”

COVID-19 cases rise in Glendale BY TOM SCANLON
Glendale Star Managing Editor
COVID-19 cases in an area of Peoria that borders Glendale continue to rise dramatically. COVID-19 tests in Peoria-Glendale ZIP code 85382 increased from 61 to 102 in a week, making it the third-highest ZIP code for positive tests in the state, according to data provided by the Arizona Department of Health Services. The striking 62% rise gave 98532 one less positive test than Mesa 85206 and two leas than Tucson 85714 as of April 21. Glendale ZIP codes had smaller increases. Glendale 85303 went from 12 positive tests to 22.
Glendale 85301 increased from 29 positive tests to 38. Glendale 85302 went from 15 to 19 positive tests. The 85345 ZIP code, which includes parts of Peoria, Sun City and Glendale, rose from 26 positive tests to 39. And 85308, which includes parts of Glendale and Phoenix, went from 28 positive cases to 32. Combined, the ZIP code map shows Glendale with more than 100 positve COVID-19 tests. However, there is a caveat on the map: “Over 90% of cases were mapped to the address of the patient’s residence. If the patient’s address was unknown the case was mapped to the address of the provider followed by the address of the reporting facility.”

Glendale Police search for suspect in crimes against children BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF The Glendale Police Department is asking for the public’s help identifying a suspect involved in crimes against children. According to police, a suspect committed multiple crimes between Aug. 10 and Feb. 24. The suspect victimized at least three children inside grocery stores along Bethany Home Road between 58th and 67th avenues, said Tiffany Ngalula, a police spokeswoman. “In these cases, the suspect waited until children between 13 and 15 years old were alone. He approached the victims with a handshake and then pulled the victim’s hands toward his body, placing their hands on his genitals,” Ngalula said. Victims and witnesses helped police create a sketch of the suspect. He was described as a Hispanic male with light complexion or a white male with dark complexion. He is believed to be 30 to 40 years old with short black hair (possibly thinning). He is approximately 5-foot-8 and approximately 200 pounds. “Witnesses described his nose as distinctively curved down like a bird’s

‘Superdonors’ needed BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF If regular blood donors are “heroes,” this would be “superhero” level: Vitalant is seeking convalescent plasma donors to help COVID-19 patients. The eligibility criteria: prior diagnosis of COVID-19, documented by a laboratory test; complete resolution of symptoms for at least 14 days; meet all other current FDA donor eligibility requirements to donate plasma. “Even with these requirements, there
may be additional tests or other criteria required,” said a Vitalant press release. “In some instances, those who have recovered from COVID-19 may be able to donate, even if they did not have an initial laboratory test.” Those who meet that criteria and want to donate plasma are encouraged to apply through the Vitalant website, vitalant.org/covidfree. For more information, call 866-CV-PLSMA (866287-5762).
BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF There will be no Rattlers at Gila River Arena this season. After postponing a season that was to begin earlier this month, the Indoor Football League (IFL) announced last week that the 2020 season has been canceled “due to the ongoing uncertainties surrounding COVID-19.” The Glendale-based Arizona Rattlers and the IFL will resume in 2021. “The Arizona Rattlers agree with the league’s decision announcing the cancellation of the 2020 season,” Rattlers majority owner and CEO Ron Shurts
said. “The safety of our fans, players, coaches, front office and all employees is of the utmost importance, and due to concerns about COVID-19, it is necessary to cancel the season to ensure that.” In the three seasons the Rattlers have been in the IFL, they have been in the conference championship every year and have gone to the United Bowl twice, winning once in 2017. The Rattlers spent 24 seasons in the Arena Football League (AFL), making 10 appearances in the ArenaBowl and winning the championship five times.

Glen Lakes Golf Course sale extended BY SAMANTHA HERDRICH
Glendale Star Contributing Writer
Glendale City Council extended the closing on the Glen Lakes Golf Course sale and made adjustments to public housng at its April 14 meeting. Applications for the public housing waiting list now can be submitted by phone, online, mail, fax or in person. The waiting list will be open for 21 days, said Jean Moreno, interim director of community services. “Waitlist openings will be advertised more extensively, including outreach to more agencies and nonprofits, Spanish-language radio ads, sign language videos and additional newspapers,” Moreno said. “A computerized random drawing of all completed applications will be conducted to identify families to be included on the waitlist.” This is a change from the previous first-come, first-served policy. “In the past, new program applicants were placed on the waitlist based on
for public housing. “Our process included incorporating feedback received from residents, public housing clients, other service providers and public housing advocates,” Moreno said. “We expect to continue working Glen Lakes Golf Course remains closed.

Citizens speak out about ‘virtual meetings’ BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF Glendale continues to follow state and federal guidelines by limiting the number of people attending meetings. The public is temporarily banned from attending Glendale City Council meetings, which are shown online; citizens may email comments to email councilmeeting@glendaleaz.com or leave a voicemail at 623-930-4530. Most city board and commission meetings have been canceled, although the Glendale Planning Commission continues to meet. A sampling of comments sent to The Glendale Star on the new policies: “The actual presence of a speaker is important. It shows an effort has been made to prepare comments, to attend, and to speak on an issue. The presence of residents at meetings is important, whether or not they speak or not. They are sending a message by being there that they either support or are opposed to an issue. They may be carrying signs
or wearing a color that indicates their preference,” Jane Bachmann said. According to Jack Martino, “Virtual (video) and teleconferencing meetings seem to have become the new norm and can provide public input if managed and communicated to the public appropriately. ... “No doubt,” he added, “public input/ participation should be a priority, and that message is paramount if Glendale desires to be successful.” Jay McKim noted Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich issued an opinion that “virtual meetings” do not violate Arizona’s open meeting laws. “Glendale seems to be meeting the stated criteria with its notices and multiple methods of accepting public comments,” McKim said. “That said, our council has been up to dirty tricks again. They would do the same if the public was still allowed to attend, but now they can avoid looking us in the eyes.”
Kelly Carbello noted, “Just showing up to a meeting is an expression of free speech. A group of people showing up to a meeting is an expression of free speech and free assembly. Nobody has to actually speak to make a statement. “...Any matter that may have a significant effect on people’s lives should be postponed until the situation has been resolved.” Stella Greazzo agreed: “Why the urgency to carry on the meetings without residents in attendance? The meetings should be on hold until residents can attend. Why the rush? Sad to say but I just don’t trust City Council.” Jennifer Bloomberg of Waddell, who opposes the planned Love’s Travel Center near Loop 303, was looking forward to making her protest in person. “I think it’s unfair to remove the human element, because some of their planning sessions really affect our lives in the communities they are rezoning and building in. They’ve already prov-
en they don’t care much about our opinion and it seems like it’s more of an inconvenience to allow us to speak in person. This would make it easier for them to pass their agenda without concern for the public,” Bloomberg said. The next Glendale City Council meeting is at 6 p.m. Tuesday, April 28. To watch live, visit facebook.com/ GlendaleAZ. The city sent a press release April 21 outlining a way for “live” participation: “For those agenda items which require a public hearing, you can receive a call back on the phone during the time that specific item is being reviewed so that you can speak live to the council. “For the April 28 meeting: If you would like to comment during the land development public hearing section or resolutions and ordinances public hearing section on the agenda, please call 623-930-4530 and follow the prompts. The deadline for leaving your message is 4 p.m. on April 28.”

Leibo: Conflict, like virus, spreads like wildfire BY DAVID LEIBOWITZ Glendale Star Columnist
The conversation with a progressive politico friend of mine took place in a Walgreens parking lot on April 15—two men standing six feet apart, swapping tales of quarantine woe. His wife sensed a furlough is near; his clients are drying up. Still, they made too much money to qualify for federal stimulus checks. His sister-inlaw, a nurse in Boston, had tested positive for COVID-19. Fortunately, she appeared to be recovering. “This president, the way he’s botched the COVID response, it’s literally criminal,” was how he put it. “He’s dead at the polls in November. Or he’s dead if we’re not all dead before then.” An hour later, a buddy called from Florida. The proud owner of at least one red Make America Great Again ball cap and a selfie of him and Donald Trump, my friend sounded buoyant. “Looks like we’re past the worst of all this,” he said. “They’re saying may-

be the economy opens back up like May 1. That sounds about right.” Welcome to the Twilight Zone: COVID-19 pandemic edition. I’ve written before about how we’ve never been more partisan, never more disagreeable than at present. Explaining that yawning divide, I’ve always held out hope that in a crisis we might overlook our disagreements and come together as both the United States and as united states. Judging by recent polling and by personal anecdotes like the above, I get the sense that 9/11-style unity won’t return anytime soon. We appear to be living through multiple pandemics right now: one through the eyes of America’s registered Democrats and another as witnessed by Republicans. Then there’s the rest of us, independents and the apolitical, who have yet another story to tell. Consider the April 10-12 Gallup poll of 3,365 random American adults.
Asked to assess the coronavirus situation, the responses couldn’t have been more different depending on political affiliation: 69% of Democrats said the pandemic was getting either a little or a lot worse. Meanwhile, 63% of Republicans said it was getting either a little or a lot better. Asked how long COVID-19 disruption would last, 32% of Democrats said the rest of this year, 52% said a few more months and 9% said a few more weeks. The GOP numbers were flipped around entirely: 52% said a few more weeks, 39% a few more months and 5% said the rest of the year. It’s not just Gallup showing this divide either. A Global Strategy Group survey last week had 87% of Republicans approving of the president’s handling of the COVID-19 crisis. Democrats, by contrast, registered an 83% disapproval rate. Stuck in the middle? Independents, who disapproved of Trump’s handling of the pandemic by a 49-37 margin. According to a YouGov poll taken at the same time, we can’t even agree on
how fearful to be of becoming infected with the virus. For Dems, 82% are very or somewhat worried. For independents, that number is 62%. For Republicans, 59% are very or somewhat worried. As for yours truly, I tend to take an approach best described by that old “X-Files” tagline: “The truth is out there.” When politicians, government officials and reporters speak, I take their pronouncements with an Everest-sized grain of salt. Facts require sources and sources require vetting. I try to invest my belief in opinions the way I do my retirement funds: carefully and while always being open to new and better information. When my friends call, I try to do more listening and comforting than challenging. Because if there’s one thing I know about America in 2020, it’s that conflict is a lot like COVID-19. It spreads like wildfire if you’re not abundantly careful. David Leibowitz has called the Valley home since 1995. Contact david@leibowitzsolo.com.

Arizona is ready to get back to business BY REP. ANTHONY KERN Glendale Star Guest Writer
For many Arizonans, April has been a lost month. Little to no work has been available, our normal forms of recreation became a thing of the past, economic worries came to the forefront. But after taking this month off due to the outbreak of the virus that originated in Wuhan, China, it is now time to reopen Arizona. We need to do so in a methodical way, paying attention to protecting our vulnerable communities, such as the elderly in nursing homes. But for the vast majority of the state’s residents, the month of May represents the perfect opportunity to resume our normal daily life. Movie theaters and restaurants should open, though likely with small-
er capacities for the time being. Parks and playgrounds can once again play host to children enjoying the equipment and Arizona’s wonderful outdoors. Churches can fill their places of worship, office workers can return to work and retail stores can open their doors to shoppers. The deep wounds suffered by Arizona, its businesses and residents caused severe pain. For instance, our tourism industry suffered a $1.2 billion hit in just the first few weeks of the disease. The Cactus League had to cut its season short, robbing fans of enjoying the sun and baseball we are used to every March. Hotels and restaurants, often full with out-of-state visitors during our beautiful spring months, shuttered
or drastically reduced their service. The state budget may see a tax shortfall of anywhere from $500 million to $1.5 billion. We are still waiting for a clearer picture, but no matter the final number, some difficult decisions on spending cuts may have to be made. Thankfully, the Legislature and Gov. Doug Ducey built a $1 billion rainyday fund to help us get past any disastrous downturn. Like many of my neighbors, I know I can’t wait to visit Tacos Tijuana for its wonderful tacos and then take a walk with my family at Sahuaro Ranch Park. Arizona does best when its residents are working hard to support a strong economy. We will never make up for the lost month of April. The substantial harm from the virus inflicted substantial pain on Arizona and the entire country.
Getting back to work now, however, will blunt that negative impact without posing harm to the general public. Arizona’s economy will recover thanks to the action taken by Gov. Ducey and the Legislature, but now it is time to get back to what we do best: working hard to support our families and enjoying our time with family and friends at restaurants, golf courses, movie theaters and parks. Rep. Anthony Kern represents Legislative District 20, which includes parts of Glendale, Peoria and North Phoenix.

Businesses hurry to wait as relief funds dry up BY CHRISTOPHER SCRAGG
A federal relief program to help small businesses stay afloat during the COVID-19 shutdown turned out to be too popular: The $349 billion Paycheck Protection Program ran out of money in less than two weeks. As Congress fights over a plan to add $251 billion, all business owners can do is wait.
Cronkite News
Business owners in Glendale and Peoria will have to wait, as a program designed to help small businesses quickly ran out of money. Meanwhile, Congress wrangles over plans to add another $251 billion to the original $349 billion in the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). Under the program, businesses can get government-backed loans through approved banks, with loans being forgiven if business owners can show they used the money to keep their workers employed. The program launched April 3 to overwhelming demand amid nationwide business shutdowns in response to COVID-19, and it was clear almost immediately that the fund would soon run out of money. The program was also plagued by shifting regulations as small-business owners flocked to apply for federal dollars. Lawmakers and officials on both sides of the aisle called for a quick solution to the problem this week. Rep. Tom O’Halleran, D-Sedona, said Friday he expects the program to be funded “today or tomorrow.” But problems emerged last week when a GOP plan to add the extra PPP

funding stalled in the Senate, as Democrats called for the bill to help other relief programs that are also running out of money and to include fixes to the small-business loan program. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said he was surprised Democrats balked at his “simple proposal,” to add the extra $251 billion without “changing any policy language that both sides have already negotiated together several weeks ago.” “I want to add more money to the only part of our bipartisan bill that is currently at risk of running out of money, so I was surprised to see this simple proposal met uneasily by the Democratic leadership,” McConnell said in remarks on the Senate floor. But Democrats charged McConnell with refusing to negotiate over other
issues they want fixed alongside the extra money for PPP. O’Halleran and others rejected McConnell’s “our way or the highway” attitude, pointing to glaring “problems in the system that have to be addressed.” One such problem, he said, was that banks partnered with the Small Business Administration were giving preferential treatment to larger businesses. “It was a free-for-all,” O’Halleran said. “There’s way too much ability of the banks to turn into, ‘We’ll take care of our customers first and the heck with anybody else,’ that has to stop.” Amanda Fischer, policy director at the liberal think tank Washington Center for Equitable Growth, said Congress needs to make the program more fair and equitable, pointing to reports of large businesses taking advantage of the program because of their resources. But in a statement Friday, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and SBA Administrator Jovita Carranza pointed to data they said proves small business-
es have an equal shot at receiving a PPP loan. “The vast majority of these loans—74% of them—were for under $150,000, demonstrating the accessibility of this program to even the smallest of small businesses,” their statement said. “The Paycheck Protection Program is saving millions of American jobs and helping small businesses get through this challenging time.” But Fischer said there are reports that fast-food chains and other large, publicly traded businesses were getting approved for loans. “Because of the way that the eligibility rules were written, these big publicly traded corporations can qualify through some loopholes,” Fischer said. “It looks like they have availed themselves of a lot of the money.” While the stalemate over additional funding is “frustrating,” Fischer lauded Democrats for “trying to rejigger the second pot of money to make it a bit more equitable.” “If we don’t make this small-business program bigger and also really target it to the folks that need it most, we are going to be coming out the other side of this coronavirus with a very lopsided economy that will have long-lasting implications,” Fischer said.

WHAM launches Cards for Seniors campaign BY SARA EDWARDS
“Our mission is to provide arts for all, and we know that art isn’t just about selling. It’s about communication,” Whitlock said. “When things like this happen, people who receive them get a really warm feeling when they know they are cared about. The people who make them do also and know that they are helping the community. That’s why we started this campaign.” Whitlock said any senior center in the West Valley can participate in the campaign and can call or email her if they would like to receive cards. “I’m hoping we’ll be able to deliver several hundreds of cards,” she said. “We’re delivering anywhere to people who need it in the West Valley. We’re all about community, and it’s people helping people.” For more information, visit whamart.org/cards-for-seniors.
Glendale Star Staff Writer
The nonprofit arts group WHAM is breaking out the cardstock and craft scissors as a part of their new Cards for Seniors campaign. When retirement homes and assisted-living facilities quickly went under lockdown, seniors were no longer able to leave the facilities or accept visitors to protect the other residents. WHAM started its Cards for Seniors campaign so folks staying in these facilities know they aren’t forgotten, by having the community send homemade cards and messages to give to them. Connie Whitlock, the executive director of WHAM, said seniors living in these homes and facilities often feel forgotten, and with the spread of COVID-19 and the lockdowns, they are feeling more lonely now. She said artists with WHAM wanted to find a way to show they’re remembered. “Some of our artists have been making cards, and we’re going to hand-deliver them to senior centers or places that have people who are isolated from

the public and not able to accept visitors,” Whitlock said. Whitlock and WHAM artists started distributing the cards on April 14 to the Place in Surprise and a private senior-care facility. So far they have delivered 68 cards and have hundreds waiting to be delivered.
Need Resources?
“WHAM is closed right now to the public, and it’s just something to help the community,” Whitlock said. WHAM staff has created art kits with card-making materials in a bag that people can pick up from outside WHAM. When they are finished making their cards, people can place the cards back in the bag and contact WHAM to arrange a time to drop them off to be sanitized and isolated for four days to prevent contamination.

West Valley Arts goes online BY SARA EDWARDS
Glendale Star Staff Writer
To show social distancing does not have to be devoid of culture, West Valley Arts is going virtual, creating virtual tours and full access to the gallery online. Melody Kokora, program director for the West Valley Arts Council, said with people having to isolate at home, it was the perfect opportunity to feature the artists and programs of the West Valley. “A lot of our supporters come to our gallery and our space, so we thought, ‘How can we pivot in a way that our virtual presence is simple, accessible and effective?’” Kokora said. “We wanted to continue to serve our teachers, the retired community and students in different ways than we normally would.” One way the gallery has continued bringing arts to the community is by launching a virtual tour of the gallery. The current exhibit, curated with pieces and paintings by local West Valley arts group the Vanguard artists, is now fully accessible through this virtual gallery. Virtual visitors can walk around the gallery, look at the artwork and tour the facility all through their computers. “We take pride in our West Valley artists, and they have something special to say and we want to continue to promote that,” Kokora said. “You can see each of those pieces of art on our website and take a personal tour of when the exhibit was still in the gallery.” The group is also launching a social media campaign to keep the community engaged with the local art scene in the West Valley, all from home. “Our creative mentality was that we wanted to use our social media as a way to connect artists and the general public and give them all kinds of opportunities,” Kokora said. The campaign will have different programs for each day of the week that can be found on its Facebook, Instagram and Twitter platforms. On Mondays, the gallery will discuss movies and documentaries highlighting art importance through a new series called “Art Captured!” Tuesdays and Thursdays will fea-

ture different local artists providing tutorials and lessons in another series, “Learn Something New,” while also giving a glimpse at the artists’ work processes or upcoming projects. Wednesdays, the gallery will connect the community to the variety of arts organizations in the West Valley and Fridays will highlight a “Featured Artist” from the West Valley arts community, an inside look at the artist’s studio and work process when creating. “We wanted to put really positive content out there and bring it back to our community,” Kokora said. “This is something that we really want to not just provide a service but to promote other people and the services that are already out there.” The programs will feature different artists, organizations and art classes each week and will be featured on the West Valley Arts social media platforms. So far, the program has featured a variety of art mediums, like a dance lesson with West Valley ballet dancer Gillian George or a daily drawing class taught by Deborah Goley. Kokora said any West Valley arts group or organization can feel free to reach out to West Valley Arts, either by email or through social media, to be featured in its social media campaign.

Now that most of us are working and learning from home, you may notice that some websites may be a bit slow to load and you may experience intermittent buffering when streaming video. While we are all trying to adapt to the new normal of learning and conducting business from home as we practice social distancing, more internet devices are being used and for longer stretches of time. And let’s face it, we are all using the internet to stay connected to people we love while we are staying close to home. Whether it’s downloading files, streaming videos, gaming, or hosting work meetings and family happy hours on Google Meets (and, sometimes all of these at once), these new and expanded uses of your home broadband network may slow things down. Rest assured that while we at Cox have seen an increase in internet traffic, our network was built to handle this. We have invested more than a billion dollars in upgrading our Arizona network to enable gigabit speeds and to ensure we can support our customers’ needs, especially in times like these. As you might imagine, there is currently more traffic and more demand on the network in residential areas and less in office buildings and stores. And peak times have shifted from evening to throughout the day—especially the middle of the afternoon—in residential areas. As always, we’re keeping a close eye on the health of our network and managing the network to provide a great internet experience. While we take care of the network to your home, we want to make sure your network in your home continues to run smoothly as well. There are many things you can do to improve the performance of your home network and ensure a good internet experience. For example, did you know that when your computer runs an automatic update or virus scan in the middle of the afternoon it takes up a significant amount of bandwidth? To help, we have rounded up an impactful list of expert advice, tips and tricks to maximize your home network performance: • Disconnect devices in your home from
your Wi-Fi, like dishwashers, coffee makers and refrigerators, as these devices do not require Wi-Fi to function. • When viewing movies, select standard definition (SD) versus high definition (HD). • Consider lowering the resolution on your doorbell camera and other security cameras while you are at home. • Place your Wi-Fi modem/router in a centrally located area so the signal can reach more rooms within your home. Also, put it up high on a shelf or tall piece of furniture, because the signal travels outward and downward. • When planning video conferencing or Google Meets get-togethers, schedule them in the morning or evening hours, moving demand away from busy afternoon use. • Utilize telephone conference calls over video streaming meetings to lessen the demand on your home network. • You can plug your computer directly into your modem rather than working off your Wi-Fi. • Beware of windows, doors and cement walls, as these are common obstructions that can interfere with the signal’s ability to extend throughout your home. • If you have gamers at home, ask them to download upgrades and stream at night, as gaming devices eat up a lot of bandwidth, slowing speed to other devices relying on Wi-Fi in the home. • Keep your Wi-Fi modem/router away from Bluetooth devices like smartwatches, as they tend to operate on the same frequency (2.4 GHZ) and can interfere with the transmission of data between your devices that use Wi-Fi. Additionally, steer clear of locating modems near a refrigerator, microwave, baby monitors and other devices that emit electronic radiation. Our focus is to help keep everyone connected during this unprecedented time. From everyone at Cox, we wish everyone health and happiness. For additional tips, please visit Cox. com.

Cox employs a team of more than 3,000 Arizonans and has contributed nearly $11 million in cash and in-kind COVID-related contributions in Phoenix and Southern Arizona.

Pest Paul powered passivity to perfect passion Recently, I found this observation on the cycles of humans and nations. Step 1 is moving from bondage to spiritual faith. Step 2 is moving from spiritual faith to great courage. Step 3 is moving from great courage to liberty. Step 4 is moving from liberty to abundance. Step 5 is moving from abundance to selfishness. Step 6 is moving from selfishness to complacency. Step 7 is moving from complacency to apathy. Step 8 is moving from apathy to dependency. Step 9 is moving from dependency to bondage. That is the epitaph of many a formerly great nation or person. If you observe this cycle, you will see there was a shift from constructive

passion to destructive passivity that ultimately caused the downfall of the person or nation. The apathy or “whatever” attitude in this cycle is what concerns me. When people start saying “whatever,” it is not a good sign. What is passion? Webster’s defines passion as an emotion or feeling such as love, desire, anger, hate, fear, grief, joy or hope that is of a compelling or

powerful nature. Close to the word “passion” is the word “zeal.” Zeal is a firm or extravagant fondness, desire or enthusiasm for anything. The word “passion” means “to suffer,” as in the Passion of Christ. Passivity is not reacting visibly or outwardly to someone or something expected to produce manifestations of emotions or feelings. It implies inactivity. It is receiving, enduring or submitting to something without resistance that is inappropriate. In Latin, it means to be carried away or be abnormally unresponsive. For example, did you hear about the person who quit? No? No one else did either. Passion can be right or wrong, constructive or destructive, directed or misdirected, depending on what the passion is about. The object of one’s passion is what determines that. I love it when people are engaged or passionate about their nation, their future, their career, their community, their marriage, their church, their lives, their dreams and goals, and God. At least they are engaged, and that is good if our passion is within the guidelines of true biblical wisdom. Sometimes we lose our passion because things did not turn out the way we wanted. Then, like the ballpoint on a retractable ballpoint pen, we retract into apathy or “whatever.” The excellent news is passion can be recovered again for most people. Real passion is a gift from God. It is part of being human. It is high octane; use it but use it wisely. Recovering your passion again can move you from bondage to spiritual faith. When we live out of passion, we are contagious. Passion often is the best motivator for getting past passivity. There was a leader in Bible days who was passionate about God and people at the same time. Look at this verse describing him: “For we have
found this man a real pest and a fellow who stirs up…” Acts 24:5. The leader was the Apostle Paul. He had a constructive, God-given passion that either attracted or repelled people. He stirred things up. He was a Christian “pest” who shifted people from anabolic to catabolic. His passion motivated ordinary people to be extraordinary and do the extraordinary. He moved their landscape. Paul was a “pest” to the folks who had a different agenda than God’s plan. However, he was a God-given pest. Paul understood that passion is the fuel that puts the Word of God into action. He recognized that everything stays potential unless people apply passion. Paul knew that passion, used for God’s purposes, creates forward momentum. His experiences with other people revealed to him that half-hearted people produce half-hearted results that create a downward spiral into “whatever.” Paul knew half-hearted people lose their vision, lose their courage, surrender to destructive habits and lifestyles and generally become benchwarmers in the game of life. So let’s address passivity. Are you like Peter in the garden, who fell asleep, or like Jesus interceding in the garden, who went on to change the world? It depends on your passion!

Free online minicamps for kids’ learning
BY BREE FLORENCE
Sylvan Learning is an educational center that provides personal academic coaching for kids grades K-12. The national tutoring service has been operating exclusively online since early March, utilizing Zoom to provide students with all their same services, as well as its new minicamps. But the online platform is difficult for
younger kids who are just learning to read and who benefit most from tactile learning, said Jenny Dunnavent, director of Sylvan Learning’s Goodyear center. To supplement online learning, she encourages families with kindergarten-age kids to use physical learning techniques with their kids at home, like jumping jacks; hopping on one foot; writing letters with playdough; or counting salt, beans, pennies or Matchbox cars to learn letters, numbers and basic math. For instructors like Kristin O’Leary at the Goodyear center, the most difficult part of teaching online is judging her student’s engagement and comprehension. “Their world at home is very different and distracting than in the classroom,”
O’Leary said. Virtual tutoring sessions can be more personalized. “When you’re online with a student, you really need the time to work one on one with a student,” Dunnavent said. Giving kids this individual attention also allows Sylvan Learning to support kids emotionally in uncertain times. “Kids are stressed out right now, too,” Dunnavent said. “They don’t understand what’s going on, why they can’t see their friends or why things are closed.” O’Leary takes a few minutes at the start of each session to check in with her students, especially younger kids. “We want to let the kids know that there is a community outside of home that supports them and can’t wait to have them back,” O’Leary said.

BY GLENDALE STAR STAFF During school closures and social distancing, the Glendale Fire Department has online tools to help high school students meet graduation requirements. The fire department created an online CPR and AED video that fulfils graduation requirements—and can provide life-saving skills. According to the American Heart Association, 70% of cardiac arrests happen at home. Early CPR is the most critical part of the chain of survival for those who suffer a cardiac arrest.
A state law passed last year states high school seniors must complete a CPR class in order to graduate. Prior to the pandemic, the Glendale Fire Department had been providing those classes to high schools across Glendale. With schools closed, Glendale Fire posted a video at youtu.be/teeyOPhfLyk. Once students finish watching the video, they are asked to complete a short survey, which gives teachers a way to track those who have completed the class.

Parents self-isolated for long hours with their kids might be looking for ways to keep them entertained, motivated to learn or even just relaxed. For those reasons, Sylvan Learning has launched a series of fun, online minicamps through Friday, April 24. The minicamps are designed to keep students in a community of like-minded peers. They address everything from vocabulary, math and poetry to yoga, “getting a handle on germs” and relaxation. While Sylvan Learning’s personalized tutoring can cost anywhere from $40 to $100 an hour, families can sign up for these group Zoom activities for free by creating an account at sylvannation.com.
