When #SEMICON West opened its doors in Phoenix, it was more than just a relocation of one of the semiconductor industry’s most important gatherings ~ it was proof of the sector’s extraordinary momentum toward a trillion-dollar future. A future that Phoenix and Arizona take part in building.

Have a hot one, or cold - today we celebrate Coffee Day!

DYK: Swedes drink about one bathtub of coffee per person and year. That puts the country in third place globally for coffee consumption.

How do you enjoy your brew?

I was orginally leaning towards the books of Tony Hillerman - about the Navajo policemen Leaphorn and Chee. These might have been the very first books I ever read that took place in Arizona.

The film follows a modern day Odyssey’s-like journey of Taek-il, a rebellious young man who escapes his monotonous reality and finds himself in a downturned Chinese restaurant.

So, what’s the deal with municipal Commissions?

Commissions are made up community members who volunteer their time and energy to shape the future of the neighborhoods where they live. 

Serving on a commission gives citizens a more directly influence on decisions that affect their communities.
