  • 1 2016 U.S. Women's Football Leagues Addendum
    2016 U.S. Women’s Football Leagues Addendum New Mexico Adult Football League – Women’s Division (NMAFL-W) – 2015 Season The NMAFL-W launched in 2015 with five teams in New Mexico. The Alamogordo Aztecs failed to complete the season, while the Amarillo Lady Punishers joined the league late and absorbed four forfeit losses before even getting out of the gate. But the Lady Punishers were formidable once they got started, upsetting the previously undefeated Roswell Destroyers in the playoffs to make it to the first NMAFL-W title game. That opened the door for the Santa Fe Dukes to swoop in and capture the NMAFL-W championship at the conclusion of the league’s first season.

  • An Open Letter to Chairman Hagman and the Board of Supervisors - News - Vvdailypress.Com - Victorville, CA
    6/24/2019 An open letter to Chairman Hagman and the Board of Supervisors - News - vvdailypress.com - Victorville, CA An open letter to Chairman Hagman and the Board of Supervisors By Joseph W. Brady Posted Jun 23, 2019 at 6:37 AM Dear Chairman Hagman and Members of the Board: With negotiations currently underway between San Bernardino County and the Sheriff’s Employee Benefits Association, it is imperative that I once again call your attention to the need for more law enforcement personnel to be deployed to the High Desert portion of the County, as well as the importance of offering competitive compensation to the County’s law enforcement officers. After going without pay increases for five years during the Great Recession, SEBA negotiated a nine percent pay increase (three percent annually from 2016- 19) in an effort to close the gap between compensation offered by our county and law enforcement salaries in neighboring jurisdictions. With these recent increases, the salaries paid to our sheriff’s deputies are now more competitive; it is essential that this progress be maintained in the current round of negotiations. Of even greater importance is the need to increase Sheriff’s Department staffing, particularly in the High Desert. In a recent conversation I had with Sheriff John McMahon, he indicated that 52 additional deputies were needed in the High Desert in order to reach appropriate staffing levels. It is, therefore, not sufficient to merely maintain salaries at a competitive level; the number of deputies must be significantly increased as well. Over the past several years on the pages of the Daily Press, I have written extensively about the crime problems we face in the High Desert and the negative effects that high crime and the public’s perception of our region as a high crime area have had on housing sales and commercial and economic development.
