    logo_MATForceVerde Valley AZ (January 22, 2013) – The January 24th MATFORCE Lunch ‘n Learn will review the 2012 Arizona Youth Survey results for Yavapai County. The public is invited to learn about the who, what, where, when and why of drug and alcohol abuse among the 2,900 youth surveyed. Some of the results are startling with Yavapai County youth above state and national averages.

    The AYS survey assesses school safety, adolescent substance use and antisocial behaviors. Risk and protective factors are also assessed, which predict adolescent behavior problems. Mandy Small and Shana Malone, of the Arizona Criminal Justice Commission, will provide an analysis of the survey results, highlighting trends, areas of greatest concern and possible solutions.

    The Lunch ‘n Learn will be held on Thursday, January 24, from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM at the Board of Supervisors Room, Yavapai County Administration Building, 1015 S. Fair St., Prescott and teleconferenced to the Yavapai County Cottonwood Annex, 10 South 6th St., Cottonwood. It is free and open to the public. Brown-bag lunches are welcome.

    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.
