COMPUTER SECURITY

Owning a computer comes with responsibility. We often think computer security as something technical and complicated. And when you get into the nitty gritty, it can be. However, the most important parts are actually very simple.

Malware & viruses, Ransomware, spyware, adware, and phishing. But what are these:

Malware: is short for malicious software, is any software used to disrupt computer or mobile operations, gather sensitive information, gain access to private computer systems, or display unwanted advertising

Virus: a computer virus is a type of malicious software program (“malware”) that, when executed, replicates by reproducing itself or infecting other computer programs by modifying them

Ransomware: is computer malware that installs covertly on a victim’s device (e.g., computer, smartphone, wearable device) and that either mounts an attack that holds the victim’s data hostage, or mounts a leakware attack that threatens to publish the victim’s

data, until a ransom is paid.Spyware: software that aims to

gather information about a person or organization without his knowledge, and that may send such information to another entity without the consumer’s consent, or that asserts control over a device without the consumer’s knowledge

Adware: an advertising-supported software, in any software package, that automatically renders advertisements in order to generate revenue for its author.

Phishing: malicious links from “friends” who have been infected, or from emails that look legitimate, but are actually fake. Please do not open these attachments.

PREVENTION & PROTECTING YOURSELF

• Download software from “offi cial sites” only

• Run Malwarebytes and super anti spyware; CCleaner; and Spyware

• Malwarebytes not only protects your computer from malware, but does the best job cleaning up an infected computer. It also includes anti-exploit and anti ransomware features. The basic programs are free and some do charge a nominal annual fee to upgrade to a proactive program that will identify problems before they happen.

• Most computers already have anti virus software installed. Resist the urge to turn them off . Most systems are on an automatic update schedule.

Allow them to do their job. These updates not only fi x bugs, but they patch security holes. Your computer will thank you and you will be happy you did!

• Add email addresses to your address book to ensure you will receive from the appropriate person

• NEVER click on links in an email • Do not open an email from someone

you do not know; If it’s in your spam mail – there may be a reason it’s there

• Passwords: Set up a password on your phone, your computer/laptop/tablet, and for all your accounts (i.e. banking, email, etc). It may take a few more seconds to open these devices, but it will stop random people from accessing your personal information.

• Do not use the same password for all your accounts. Your passwords should be long and consist of special characters, upper and lower case letters, etc. Services get hacked all the time. If one of your accounts gets hacked, the hacker can use that password to gain access to all your accounts. Again, have a diff erent password for all of your accounts. Prevention is the key! Be Proactive -

your behavior will greatly protect your personal information and computer security.

New Technology for HOA Board of Directors Monthly Board Meetings

New Board Member

Recently there was additional video teleconferencing equipment installed at the SVE auditorium to accommodate SVE HOA monthly Board of Directors’ meetings for the board members who are absent during the summer months . Utilizing the web based product WebEx along with the addition of a video capture device to the audio visual system computer allows the

local members of the board to connect to those who are absent during the summer months with real time audio and video conferencing. The cameras and microphones in the auditorium send images and sound of the local group via the internet to those members who are connected by computers at their summer location. Those members are connected via the internet using

their home computer microphone and web camera which is then received and displayed on the auditorium projectors and played through the sound system. The new conferencing system will accommodate all of the “away” board members allowing the board to continue to meet as scheduled every month regardless of the board members’ location.

WHAT IS AN EMOJI?It is Japanese for “picture word”. The original meanings

of emoji are based on the Japanese culture where these marks fi rst became popular Emojis are often pictographs which are images of things such as faces, weather, emotions or activities. Webster defi nes this term as “small images or icons in electronic communication to express an emotional attitude”. Your emojis make your text messages, Facebook, or emails ‘come alive’. It seems these simple marks have become an unoffi cial language for simply communicating a feeling or activities without words. So the next time you want to express yourself without writing it… consider using an emoji.

THERE’S AN “APP” FOR THAT!

You’ve probably heard “There’s an app for that” from your children or grandkids! But what is an “App?” And why do we need them? The word “app” is an abbreviation for application. An app is a piece of software, an application program designed for a particular purpose on a computer, tablet or mobile phone or any other electronic device. It seems there is an “app” for everything these days - TV shows, web sites, banks, businesses, calorie counting, the weather, directions, the stock market or your favorite game. The list is endless. Practically every type of social, leisure or work activity now manifests itself in the form of an app. An app aims to make our lives easier! But how do we fi nd the app that is best suited for our computer or smart phone? Well there is an app for that too! However, make sure it is compatible with your operating system (Android, iOS, and Windows, and others). And just one more thing – there are many free apps, but some you have to pay for. Enjoy searching for ‘apps’ that best fi t your needs.

Deaths In The Village Marge Reasy January 29, 2017Glen Shaver March 11, 2017

At a pre-concert lecture, the conductor of a symphony orchestra was telling the audience about the major work that the orchestra would be performing at that evening’s concert. The conductor told the people that if they listened carefully to the music, they would discover that it was both surprising and inevitable. On the one hand, the musical score would take a fair number of rather jarring and unexpected twists. There would be points in the concert when the blare of the trumpet or the sudden rolling of the timpani would seem to come from out of nowhere in a surprising fashion. On the other hand, however, the conductor noted that in the long run, these surprises would themselves become part of a larger coherence. Once listeners heard

the entire piece from start to fi nish, they would fi nd in the music an air of inevitability how could it ever have been written any diff erently?

Isn’t that the way it often is in our lives? Sickness, losing loved ones, suff ering from a bad fall, can visit us very quickly. We are often shocked, surprised and bewildered - why is this happening to me? Why now at this time in my life? Those are all good questions. But once we get through with all those questions where do we go. How do we keep from getting bitter, awash in self-pity and not getting better and stronger emotionally and spiritually?

Maybe it has something to do with our perspective. I like the 3 word phrase, “Life needs perspective.” When

diffi culty comes, we should always look back, look around, look down and look up, look everywhere but at ourselves and the burden of what just happened to us will become lighter. . . and we will be more able to see our way through. You will fi nd someone who is suff ering much more than you, someone whose life now is fl ourishing but has a past littered with pain and someone who acts like they never suff er, but you are quite sure are doing a good job of covering-up. The Bible has a great verse to get us through these kinds of diffi cult times.

“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” Romans 8:28

THANK YOUThe SVE Village Singers want to send a big thank

you to all who attended our spring concert. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we enjoyed performing for you. Thank you for coming!

PANCAKE BREAKFASTEd Malone

The 2016/2017 pancake breakfast season is now history. We had a GREAT season.

We served 3529 paid guests and contributed $10,642.12 to the SVE General Fund. At our April Breakfast, we served 559 guests and 3 children. Our profi t was $2170.10.

What made it so GREAT is you, the volunteers who got up before the sun on the fi rst Saturday of each month, helped get everything ready and then made our guests the FINEST BREAKFAST in the East Valley and served by our ever smiling staff . Some of these great people are never seen by our guests. I’m talking about the guys who wash the dishes, the pots and pans, make coff ee and eggs, do the clean-up, etc. They may be unseen but without them it just wouldn’t work. My THANKS TO ALL OF YOU, YOU ARE ALL SPECIAL and I look forward to working with you next season. In the meantime, enjoy your summer.

We had a special appreciation pizza party for our volunteers on the April 11th. We had a nice time visiting rather than working. They did a good job of eating too.

COUPLES GOLFSandi Slater

The SVE golf couples celebrated our last “event” of the season with a farewell potluck followed by karaoke on Friday, April 7, and proving once again that golfers are great cooks and great singers! We recognize birthdays and anniversaries every Friday evening, and that evening we celebrated Bob Gerkin’s 80th birthday. A special guest was asked to sing Happy Birthday to Bob, and he was very surprised when he turned to see his daughter singing! She had fl own into town with her fi ancé to surprise him on his birthday. We all celebrated with cake and ice cream provided by the family. Congratulations Bob!

Please welcome Linda and Monte Routledge to the SVE Couples Golf and introduce yourself when you see them on the course or at the Friday night social.

We are saying goodbye to our winter friends and wish them all a fun-fi lled summer with friends and family. We look forward to seeing you again in the fall and wish you safe travels. Some of us have signed up to get together over the summer for a reunion and golf tournament in the Black Hills of South Dakota from July 9 through July 11.

We have a social every Friday evening in the auditorium and would love to welcome new members. Bring a snack to share and your own beverage and don’t forget to wear your nametag. Remember to save your aluminum can tabs and bring them to the social on Friday evening as they support the Ronald McDonald house which provides housing for parents of hospitalized children.

GOLF CONDO IIMimi Handorff

Our Laguna Azul snowbirds truly love Arizona and the lifestyle SVE has to off er as a few of you will be reading this article while still thinking about packing up and heading north. The words from some of you seem to sound the same: “Last several years got back north too early as it was cold and even had to put up with snow. Heading back this year fi rst part of May instead of near end of April.” Glad to have you with us a bit longer.

Our Hawaiian luau March 23 was a huge success. The auditorium was a sea of colors with everyone donning attire representing Hawaii. Some of the ladies wore long dresses they had purchased in Hawaii. Gentlemen in grass skirts were—a sight to behold. One hundred forty-three tickets were sold and each one who attended was presented with a colorful lei. The Orohena husband, wife and daughter team was our entertainment. They did a marvelous job of displaying their talented Hawaiian dancing, music, and also had audience participation.

Dates to mark on your calendar for next year’s events are:Welcome Back Party – January 18, 2018Appetizer/Hors d’oeuvres Party – February 13, 2018Farwell Chicken Dinner March 27, 2018 – “Mexican

helping to create our wonderful community during the fall and winter months, and remember, you will be welcomed back with open arms.

PICKLEBALLPaula Henry

There is a familiar saying many readers will recognize, “If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.” Well, in Pickleball we have a similar saying and if you watch or play the sport of Pickleball, you will surely hear someone say, “Stay out of the kitchen.” There is even a t-shirt that reads, “Stay out of the Kitchen, Play Pickleball.” A bit of a double meaning if you are the cook at home and your love of Pickleball has become a priority.

So, what is the kitchen in Pickleball? It is a 7 foot zone on both sides of the net that is offi cially called the No Volley Zone (NVZ), a.k.a. the kitchen. A player cannot hit the ball from this zone until it has bounced on the court once. This required bounce helps deter players from smashing the ball back to their opponent while at the net. A player should step into the kitchen or NVZ, return the ball after it has bounced and immediately retreat behind the kitchen line.

Could a player actually remain in the kitchen area while awaiting a ball to bounce? Yes, according to USAPA rules a Pickleball player may legally remain in the kitchen area; however, it doesn’t make practical sense to hang out in this NVZ or kitchen area for a couple reasons. Your opponents can 1) return the ball at your body and you would likely not be able to get out of the way to allow the required ball bounce before returning it and 2) if your opponent returns the ball back beyond the kitchen line it would make it more diffi cult to get back to the ball to return it to your opponent. Thus, the “stay out of the kitchen” saying applies and Pickleball players all work hard to “stay out of the kitchen”.

If you are interested in this fast growing sport of Pickleball, we welcome you to join us. There is a court schedule posted on the bulletin board next to the courts or you can contact us at SVEPickleball@gmail.com. Hope to see you around the courts.

SHUFFLEBOARD Carleton Moore

By the time you read this in May, it may be too hot to play on the shuffl eboard courts because the wax we apply to help the disks move begins to melt! The good news is that play will start again this fall. We now have new shades to make our games more comfortable. We appreciate the eff orts of the crews that keep the boards running smoothly.

Our new offi cers are Curtis Faul, President; Dave Scheels, Vice President; LaVon McGhinnis, Secretary; and Larry McGhinnis, Treasurer. We appreciate their eff orts in keeping the club running effi ciently.

Our In-Park Individual Champion Tournament winner was Curtis Faul and In-Park Individual Consolation Tournament winner was Sylvia Schmidt. In-Park League Team Tournament Champions were Captain Lola Stewart, Marlene Faul, Mark Thurn, Anita Lakey, Dave Scheels and Boyde White. In the Out-of-Park Coyote League the SVE team placed 2nd.

We look forward to welcoming you in the fall when the wax doesn’t melt. We are happy to introduce new members to the game on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday mornings at 9:00 am. See you then.

TENNIS TALKSandy Saxena

Another successful tennis season is in the books, leaving lots of fun and fond memories. Tennis Club members made the success possible by volunteering hundreds of hours: Thank You! We would be remiss by not also thanking our

Shuffl eboard and Horseshoe Club neighbors who cooperate with us during league play and our tournaments.

Even though it seems like ancient history, we must recognize the SVE winners from the three March tournaments - - SVE, Sunland Springs Village and Monte Vista. Our own Kathy Fackrel and Connie Rodgers won fi rst place for 4.0 women, and, Jeanne Rock and Carol Stoudt won consolation for 1.5 women at our SVE tournament. We had two teams win at the doubles tournament at SSV: Jan Wilson and Gary Stephenson 1st place consolation for 2.0, and Ron Johnson and Marie Kulbaski 2nd place consolation for 3.5. Monte Vista hosted its “team tournament,” the last one for the season. Our Tennis Club had 2 teams participating, one each from the 3.5 and the 4.0 levels. The SVE 4.0 team won its division. We also had two players playing at the 4+ level, RJ McInnis and Tom Bostock. Congratulations to Tom Bostock who was honored as MVP for the tournament week.

We invite everyone in the village to watch one or more of the three tournaments held each year in March. It’s an opportunity to see some fantastic tennis and experience all the fun, food and friendship. Who knows, some of you may get the tennis bug and join us.

League and tournament play may be over for the season, but there’s still lots of fun tennis to be played. The courts are active all summer long! Round Robin tennis is open to all SVE residents and takes place every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 7-8:30 a.m. Everyone is welcome to come and joins us. Our members are glad to show you around the courts and help get you started.

See you at the courts!

BOOK CLUBPam Moser

The April 4th book club selection was HOME FRONT by Kristin Hannah with discussion led by Pam Moser.

National Guard black hawk helicopter pilot Jolene Zarkades and her crew are deployed to Iraq. The deployment sends Jolene into harm’s way and leaves her husband, Michael, a defense attorney, at home unaccustomed to being a single parent to two girls. This war changes Jolene in ways none of them could imagine. The book reveals the hardships of the deployed soldier and the hardships of the family left behind.

The Book Club meets the 1st Tuesday of the month at 10:00 am in the Saguaro Room. The May selection is SAVING CEECEE HONEYCUTT by Beth Hoff man. The discussion leader will be Nancy Kelly. Join us if you have a love of reading. See you in May!

CERAMICSCarol Clark

The days are hot but Ceramics is the cool place to be. Ceramics is fun and relaxing. We welcome new members year-round so give Ceramics a try. We have loaner kits and some small, inexpensive green ware pieces to get you started. Drop by any Monday, Tuesday, or Thursday morning to get started.

ANNOUNCING CHANGES – I have been told that many of us are not morning people. So starting in May we will have the Ceramics Room open with a monitor from 1:00 pm until 4:00 pm on Wednesday afternoons. These hours are in addition to our regular morning hours on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday mornings from 9 am – noon. We will not have a teacher present and therefore, no charge for a class. Our membership dues remain at $5.00 for SVE residents. Membership dues and locker fees are due January of each year. For more information contact: Carol Clark, 480-203-2965 or Sue Kobiela 480-380-6909.

Our 2017 offi cers are Carol Clark, President; Sherrie Larson, Vice-President; Susan Kobiela, Treasurer; Sue Hensley, Secretary; and Trudi Shjefl o, Member-at-Large.

COMPUTER CLUBBetty Selvage

BITS and BYTES I want to thank all of the offi cers and helpers for a great

computer season. We will not meet as a club until September. I hope all of you have a fun and safe summer vacation.

The Slug Group which is a Linux Group, made up of mostly free software, will be meeting in the computer facility on Wednesday, May 10th from 6-7:30 P.M. If there are enough members that attend, then the group will consider meeting during the summer.

Our presentation by the AAA representative was enlightening as to what is now being off ered as upgrades in the new cars. He stressed which of the upgrades were needed and brought a car to the parking lot to let us see the latest and greatest upgrades. We even had the option of taking the car for a drive.

Check our website SVECC.COM for great articles and important information regarding schedules and helpful articles.

Also, according to Joe Zagar’s warning, keep your passwords in a book. He gave a speech on all the diffi culties that he had come across in trying to help people to get their computers up and running.

GENEALOGYGary VanValkenburg

Our meetings are all over for this season and many members have returned to their summer homes. We had a good season this year. Attendance was good; we had some interesting speakers and we learned some new and diff erent ways to search for

our ancestors from each other.We would like to thank all our members for their support,

their input to our meeting discussions, their ideas and thoughts- all of which made for a successful year.

Just a reminder, our next meeting is October 18, not all that far away. Mark your calendars.

In preparation for Veterans Day, November 11th – the club is asking all SVE veterans to provide us a military picture, with your name and the years you served. A video will play at the beginning of our program highlighting our veterans. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at 951-237-8142.

The SVE Veterans Club will resume our monthly meetings on October 18th. Have a great summer.

Volleyball NewsTed Linde

Volleyball is on suspension for the summer months. We will resume playing in November when many of the snowbirds are back in the ‘nest’! The fi rst potluck of the new season will be held on December 4th in the Mesa Verde Room, located in the South Complex. It was a fun year; we look forward to adding many new faces in the winter. Have a wonderful summer, and safe travels to you all.

ART CLUB Diane Moore

Many Art Club artists have fl own back home for the summer. But Open Studio class starts in May for three weeks for those staying a while. So bring your watercolor, acrylic, pen and ink, or colored pencil drawing project to the Art Room and we will enjoy good company and maybe create a new masterpiece. Elaine will be there to help us with the projects. Call Elaine Dubè for more information at 984-6491.

The beautiful watercolor fl ower you see here is by Betty Wilson. For those of you fl ying off , have a good summer and see you in the fall!

DOGS ‘R USL.Paulsen

Here we are again at the end of the winter season. We will miss our winter friends and look forward to their return in the fall.

For some, this past year has seen the loss of their beloved pets, and others are enjoying the old age of their pets, knowing that their lives are shorter than ours. We know when they leave us, they have fi elds

of green to play in forever. As I have heard so often, “If dogs don’t go to heaven, then I want to go where they go.” Dogs come into our lives to teach us about love. They depart to teach us about loss. A new dog never replaces an old dog; it merely expands the heart. The picture above shows one of the many puppies caged and hoping to be adopted and loved in some forever home. Remember, when preparing to adopt a pet, look to the animal shelters.

See you September 16 when our meetings resume.

FITNESS CLUBGary Chestek

Many of our members have been gracious in making donations to the Fitness Club for the replacement of maintenance items while others have donated equipment that benefi ts everyone and adds appeal.

This month the staff and I would like to thank TED BOWEN for his gracious contribution to our facility. This assembly, shown in the picture, adds a heavy bag to our gym (many thanks, Ted).

My name is Ted Bowen and I have lived at SVE for 11 years. When I fi rst started working out there were only smaller north and south pool gyms. When the dedication day for the new fi tness center came, I was thankful that the community came together to make this possible.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all my friends at the fi tness center for encouragement and would encourage all SVE residents to use the fi tness center for better, healthy lives.

Kathy BettsATTENTION ALL SUNLANDS VILLAGE EAST

RESIDENTS: There is a wonderful opportunity awaiting you! It is the Sunsationals Tap Dancing Club! And it is for anyone and everyone. There is dancing to fi t every level of ability - even beginners! The retirement community has a wonderful stage; practices are held almost at your back door.

Watch for announcements of beginners’ classes. No experience needed. Or if you are a seasoned dancer, you may just be able to jump (or should I say dance) right into the regular classes which start the beginning of November. Contact Pam Marsh at 430-380-4295. At the present time, teacher Stephani Spoke is teaching some brush up classes for anyone who’d like to come. Tap is from 9-10 a.m. and clogging is from 10-11 a.m. on Tuesday mornings. These were held in April and just may continue through the month of May.

At the club›s spring luncheon the very last day of March,

exciting things were happening. Besides a yummy lunch, new offi cers were elected, the new program for the 2017-2019 season announced, special appreciations for our president and teacher were presented, plus some other deserving members were also noted.

New Offi cers: President: Kathy BettsSecretary: Pat SoderbergTreasurer: Sharon DuryeaCongratulations to these wonderful ladies. Being an offi cer

in the Sunsationals Tap Club is a job of pure dedication to hard work, keeping everyone happy, and making sure the new season will outdo all the others with a magnifi cent show that will be presented in March of 2019.

Spring has sprung beautifully this year. We wish you all happiness and prosperity this season, as well as safety and good will.

Sunland Stitchers have wonderful news for the community. We have been able to purchase a Gammill long arm quilting machine with the generous help of Bingo. They matched our funds which quickly enabled

us to take delivery on March 29, 2017. Marcia Todd and Eileen VeVea are pictured with our new machine. Our previous long arm, donated by Rosemary and Roy Braunberger, was made for a home quilter, not the multi-

users we turned it into. We were fortunate to sell the fi rst machine to a new resident and member, Lynn Cronk. The new machine will be used to produce charity quilts as well as members’ personal quilts. Please note: Our group does

sell quilts throughout the year to residents to help replenish our supplies. Our members are very excited with the new machine and there are four ladies who will hold classes to guide us on the fi ne points of quality quilting.
