    logo_MATForceVerde Valley AZ (May 5, 2014) – MATFORCE invites all community members to a Mixer event on May 8th in Prescott.  The event will recognize and thank the many hundreds of community partners and volunteers who help MATFORCE in its successful reduction of substance abuse in Yavapai County. 

    MATFORCE’s mission is that by working together we can reduce substance abuse.  Sheila Polk, Yavapai County Attorney and MATFORCE Co-Chair, said, “In recent years we have seen rising levels of abuse with drugs like prescription opiods, marijuana and heroin.  MATFORCE is working to combat this trend because it is a major health concern for our community.  I hope each and every person in Yavapai County visits the Mixer to learn how MATFORCE’s prevention projects are at work in our community.”

    The event will also give special recognition to the outstanding youth in our community, who were awarded first place in the annual MATFORCE Youth Video and Poster Contests.  Winning posters will be on display.  The winning videos will be debuted as well.  Also, a new film, titled the “White Cross Tour,” will be debuted.  This local video project highlights roadside white cross memorials in Yavapai County.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
