GOOD NEWS >Classic Scholar @ Stanford University Documents Real Evidence of "The Amazons: Women Warriors

Four female warriors buried around 2,500 years ago with weapons have been discovered in western Russia. For the first time, archaeologists found a magnificent headdress in situ, still wrapped around the skull of its possessor. Perhaps even more interesting is the fact that although the “Amazons” were buried together, they belonged to three different generations. Technically, the women were identified as Scythian nomads and were interred inside one of 19 barrows discovered during an archaeological survey by the village of Devitsa

Suburban Land Reserve,Inc > More Plans For Sub-Division Plats @ "Mesa & Main Redevelopment Phase 2"

Proposed plans to add 2 additional blocks for 12 townhomes + 10 townhomes and 6 detached single residences are on the Final Agenda for today's meeting of the Mesa City Council.
The Study Session starts at 5:15 p.m. with a review of items on the agenda for the regular council meeting scheduled to begin a half-and-hour later at 5:45 p.m.

Attachments for Items 9-c and 9-d are inserted below where the owner of the plats is listed as Suburban Land Reserve, Inc.

"Mesa & Main Redevopment" is the phrase used by the City of Mesa for the currently under-construction 10-acre retail-residential-commercial project located on the SEC Mesa Drive/Main Street adjacent to the 20-acre Mesa Temple.

It's been controversial from the start when plans were first 'revealed' back in February 2018 that were fast-tracked through the development and approval process. All throughout there were NO FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES EVER DISCLOSED TO THE PUBLIC.

Ground-Breaking Ceremony: ASU Money-Pit on Pepper Place

Promised by city officials at a price-tag of Mesa taxpayers' money, $63.4 Million-bucks of debt, ASU President Michael Crow and Mesa Mayor John Giles were shovel-ready to turn-over a pile of dirt for a nothing-to-rave-about building, located on the site of a former parking lot at Pepper Place and Centennial, behind City Hall.

“There won’t be controversy at the groundbreaking. . .
__________________________________________________________
We will be celebrating,’’

said Jeff McVay, Mesa’s downtown transformation manager.

"Somebody pushed over the first domino.
That domino thing is starting to fall.
It’s great,’’ McVay said.

That's McVey's chosen metaphor for The Game of Dominoes

Whoopsiesss!

Isn't that ASU 3-story money-pit supposed to be a part of what's been hyped time-and-time again as "The Rise of Mesa's Innovation District??" -- the dig is to install unanticipated over-budget costs
Price tag now $100,000,000
Taken out-of-the-pockets of Mesa taxpayers - to construct one new building that rich ASU could have paid for.

"Mesa is thrilled to be breaking ground on ASU @ Mesa City Center," Mayor John Giles said. "These programs from the Herberger Institute for Design will use augmented reality, virtual reality, 3D modeling and visualization to develop technology with the potential to impact industries as diverse as healthcare, aerospace, manufacturing and entertainment. This building is already attracting interest from Fortune 50 companies interested in the emerging technology."

"Today's groundbreaking marks not only the beginning of a new project at the start of a new decade, it reinforces our commitment to preparing for the competitive demands of a new economy," said Arizona State University President Michael M. Crow. "We are grateful for the confidence and investment from the City of Mesa which enables us to leverage that support into an investment in students and faculty in several related and transformative areas of study. Along with the Polytechnic campus in east Mesa, this new Center will give ASU a stronger presence in one of the most important communities we serve."
