A "miracle drug" aimed at helping offenders in Arizona jails and prisons beat an Opioid addiction is having limited success, roughly nine months after two separate programs launched.Both the Arizona Department of Corrections and Maricopa County Correctional?Health Services launched separate but similar Vivitrol programs in the summer of 2017.Vivitrol is an injectable form of Naltrexone and designed to block the brain's opioid receptors. Essentially, the monthly shot is designed to prevent an opioid user from getting high.However, experts warn counseling must come along with the medication. Eligible inmates receive a shot of Vivitrol before their release, with counseling and services set up to try and ensure success once back in the community. According to the Arizona Department of Corrections, 13 eligible inmates enrolled in the program since August, with just two making it to their third shot after leaving prison.In Maricopa County, nine eligible county inmates have opted for Vivitrol. Of those nine, county officials only know of three who continued seeking treatment after leaving jail. "I can say that I would have hoped for a better success rate," said Dr. Grant Phillips, the Medical Director for Maricopa County Correctional Health Services.  He also noted the number of people who become eligible for the treatment program is intentionally kept low, to ensure they are providing proper education and services, such as counseling, for when the inmate leaves jail. Essentially, it's a small sample size, but Vivitrol will continue as an option as a part of their larger substance abuse program. "The drug itself is effective when used in combination with counseling and strong social support," Phillips said. "Let's face it, someone leaving jail is lacking in a lot of those things."Phillips says while only nine patients have opted for Vivitrol, they have more than 100 methadone patients just in 2018. "There may be a lack of interest," Phillips said, noting inmates in the substance abuse program regularly discuss various treatment methods.  "Some will have had good experiences, some will not have good experiences, they'll talk about it and they'll kind of share these ideas."The goal is to help inmates better their lives while reducing the rate at which offenders wind up back behind bars. Vivitrol programs take many different shapes across the country. For example, in Madison County, Indiana, Vivitrol is sometimes tied to a condition of probation.The Chief Probation Officer there said roughly 55 percent of participants either successfully completed, or are still a part of, their Vivitrol program. They count that as a success. Perhaps it's too early to evaluate the programs here in Arizona. "The anecdotal success is a reason to be optimistic about it," Phillips said. "Offering choice of all the options that are out there and realizing that Vivitrol is going to work for some individuals, we want to make sure it is available to them." 3177

(KGTV) -- Proponents of Proposition 15, a measure that would affect commercial and industrial properties, said it would bring in much needed money to local governments and schools.“In public schools, we are in dire need of full and fair funding,” said Christina Benson, an elementary school teacher in National City and president of the National City Elementary Teachers Association.Prop. 15 would base property taxes for commercial and industrial land and buildings on current market value rather than original purchase price. This would apply to properties more than million. According to the Legislative Analyst’s Office, this could bring in anywhere between .5 to .5 billion per year.Benson said part of that would go toward teachers’ pay as well as programs, materials and supplies for classrooms.The ad for Yes on 15 said it would “close big corporate tax loopholes, protects homeowners, and cuts small business taxes.”Lynn Reaser, chief economist at Pt. Loma Nazarene University, questioned the use of the word “loophole.”“Businesses and homeowners all now face the same rules—large companies, small companies, wealthy homeowners, poor homeowners. It’s really an issue in terms of businesses, between… generally new businesses versus older businesses,” Reaser said.The campaign has major funding from the California Teachers Association, the SEIU California State Council, and the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative Advocacy.The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative Advocacy was founded by Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Dr. Priscilla Chan. It aims to help “build a more just, equitable future.”Communications Director for the Yes on 15 campaign said loopholes do exist for corporations. “[They] can structure commercial real estate deals in a way to avoid majority change of ownership and thus avoid reassessment and avoid paying fair market value taxes,” Alex Stack wrote to Team 10.Benson said the fear that property tax assessments for homeowners could be affected in the future is unwarranted. "That is absolutely false," she said.Prop. 15 does provide some tax relief for small business owners , in that businesses with less than half a million dollars worth of equipment would not have to pay taxes on it start in 2024. "The bottom line, there are these benefits to huge transfer of money that goes to state and local governments and schools," Reaser said. "But that money is not magically created. It comes from businesses." 2453

1)   When does daylight saving time start?Daylight saving time ends Sunday, November 3 at 2 a.m. when clocks will fall back one hour to 1 a.m. This means that sunrise and sunset times will be one hour earlier starting Sunday.2)   Who is affected?Almost all Americans, except for those in Hawaii, most of Arizona and U.S. territories, will need to make sure their clocks move back an hour. Many electronic devices, such as televisions, computers and smartphones, will automatically move forward. Non-digital clocks will need to be reset manually.3)   Why is Daylight Saving Time necessary?Depending on whom you ask, it is not. What daylight saving time does is shift an hour of daylight from the morning to the evening. Governments implemented daylight saving time as a measure to conserve energy. While Americans conserve some energy in the evening with more daylight, research has found that the benefit is negated by increased energy usage in the morning.Is Daylight Saving Time worth it?4)   Why not have Daylight Saving Time year round?It has been tried before. Most recently, President Richard Nixon implemented year-round daylight saving time in 1974 as America was affected by an energy shortage. The act ended in 1975 as Congress established a standard practice for daylight saving time, allowing for winter mornings to have more daylight, so more people could go to work and school in the daylight.Also, the legislature in Florida approved year-round daylight saving time earlier in 2018, but the proposal needs approval in Washington. 5)   What is the history of Daylight Saving Time?Many consider Benjamin Franklin as the inventor of daylight saving time, though he only suggested that Parisians wake up earlier to enjoy more of the daylight, and to conserve candle wax. According to the University of Washington assistant professor of economics Hendrik Wolff, Germany during World War I was the first nation to implement daylight saving time. The practice spread to America during World War II. The European Union is planning on phasing out daylight saving time as soon as 2019.  2169
