City Rep. Peter Svarzbein said he thinks the mayor is going to do what he feels is appropriate. |
"I know he had issues with his health earlier this year," Svarzbein said. "Taking care of yourself and your personal life should always be paramount." |
Leeser took office in June 2013 after defeating former city Rep. Steve Ortega in a heated and expensive runoff election. Leeser narrowly missed winning the race outright in May that year. |
The next general city election will be in May, when the mayoral seat and representative seats for Districts 2, 3, 4 and 7 will be on the ballot. Those districts are now represented respectively by Jim Tolbert in West-Central, Emma Acosta in East-Central, Carl Robinson in Northeast and Líly Limón in the Lower Valley. |
Winners in that election will take office in June unless a runoff election is necessary. |
The next elections for Districts 1, 5, 6 and 8 will be in November 2018, with the winning candidates taking office in January 2019. Those seats are now held respectively by Peter Svarzbein on the West Side, Michiel Noe on the East Side, Claudia Ordaz in Eastridge-Mid-Valley and Cortney Niland in South-West El Paso. |
A change to hold city elections in November rather than May starting in 2018 was approved by voters in the May 2013 charter election. |

PROVO A group of Brigham Young University advertising students took a bite out of the Big Apple over the weekend. |
The trio of 20-something students won first place in an ad campaign for sunscreen products by L'Oreal. They will now compete in the international finals in Europe this summer. |
"We're going to Paris!" said BYU advertising professor Jeff Sheets. |
Sheets is director of the BYU advertising lab and accompanied the students to New York City for the L'Oreal Brandstorm Marketing Competition. |
Two of the five groups competing were from BYU's department of communications. This is the first time a university has placed two finalists in the event. More than 200 colleges competed in the preliminary rounds of this year's contest. |
The Brandstorm competition gives undergraduate students the opportunity to revamp one of L'Oreal's signature product lines. Students developed an international brand strategy and a marketing campaign for Vichy Capital Soleil, a line of suncare products for women, men and children. |
The winning BYU students, speaking via their cell phones over the weekend in interviews with the Deseret News, said they were nervous for their presentation and then somewhat intimidated after seeing the other teams' work. |
They competed against groups from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, New York University and the University of Texas at Austin. |
Each team presented a five-minute highlight reel showcasing their branding, packaging and marketing campaigns. A group of corporate executives assessed the finalists. |
The BYU students said they couldn't believe it when they won. |
"I'm floored," said ad team member Monica McGhie. |
The BYU group also won Best Communications Campaign. McGhie said when that award was announced earlier, she was disappointed because she thought there was no way her team could win two awards. But they did. |
"I'm so excited to go to Paris," McGhie said. |
Team member Blake Hadley said, "I need to get my passport." |
The trip to Paris will be all-expenses paid, including airfare and other transportation, hotel and food for the three students and faculty adviser Sheets. L'Oreal funded the three trips to New York City for the three segments of the competition for the students but not for the faculty adviser. |
All three BYU students, seniors majoring in advertising, have big plans after graduating this month. |
Hadley, 25, of Orem, and teammate Matt Miller, 24, of Provo, have advertising internships lined up. Hadley will work for DDB Advertising while Miller is at McCann Erickson advertising, both in New York City, for the spring. Then the pair will head to Leo Burnett advertising in Chicago for the summer. |
McGhie, 21, of Taipei, Taiwan, is going to serve a summer internship with global media network MindShare in New York City. |
"I'm so proud to represent BYU as my school," McGhie said. |
BYU's 2007 ad team won Best Communication Campaign in Paris last year. All three members of BYU's 2007 team have accepted job offers with L'Oreal. |

About 35,000 Tawerghans are living in camps across Libya since rebels captured the town in August 2011. |
Seven years after the start of the Libyan conflict, people from one town are finally able to return home. |
Residents of Tawergha were forced out after being accused of killing rebels who supported the revolution against Muammar Gaddafi. |
Many of their houses were destroyed. |

Chasing a juvenile through lot 9...SBPD in the area. |
The headline says 'juvenile gang types'. Being juvenile is pretty obvious, but how can you tell a "gang type"? Is it because of the "group" mentioned later? |
Welcome to downtown Santa Barbara. Judge Colleen Sterne declared we have no gang problem in this city. Case closed. You are just imagining things. |

Pillows have the power to transform a blank couch or chair into a pretty and comfortable sitting area. Here are three easy ways to create fun and chic pillows using a few simple tools. |
Draw, or print out the design you wish to stamp on a piece of paper. |
Lay your paper down on a plank. |
Using a foam roller, roll over the tops of your nail heads. |
Press your nail head stamp, down onto your pillow case. |
Use masking tape to make a design on the pillow. Use minimum half an inch of tape. |
Shake spray paint before you begin to ensure even texture. |
Spray top down so you get a mist. You don’t want to be too close to the fabric, otherwise you will get splotches. |
Let air dry for at least a couple of hours before you take the tape off carefully. |
Using an x-acto knife, make triangle slits where you would like your grommets to go (make sure you protect your desk with cardboard underneath). |
Take your grommet and grommet tool and place them in place. |
Hammer them until they attach. |
Once complete you will see the other coloured pillow poke out from underneath. |
CHELSEA face Manchester United in the Premier League tomorrow, but which players make our combined XI of the two clubs? |
Jose Mourinho is making his fourth return to Stamford Bridge since becoming United boss. |
And the Portuguese is in desperate need of a result, with his side trailing the Blues by seven points in the table already. |
Maurizio Sarri’s men have performed well so far, taking 20 points from a possible 24, sitting level with leaders Manchester City. |
But which Chelsea and United players make it into Starsport’s combined XI? |
On his day, the Spaniard is arguably the most talented goalkeeper in world football. Kepa looks promising, yet it is too early for him to be mentioned in the same bracket. |
Sarri’s most consistent performer at the back is Azpilicueta, who rarely puts a foot wrong for the Blues. He has little competition at United, too, with Antonio Valencia out of sorts at the minute. |
The German centre-half finished 2017/18 well and has picked up where he left off this term. Tall, quick and aerially superb, he comfortably makes it into this side. |
After being exiled by Antonio Conte in 2017/18, after playing such a key role in their title win the year before, Luiz has been revived by Sarri and the Italian is reaping the benefits of making such a decision. He certainly suits the latter’s possession-based philosophy. |
The toughest choice to make in defence comes at left-back, where Alonso just sneaks in ahead of Luke Shaw - who, unlike most United men, has started the campaign well. His Blues counterpart is technically flawless and remains an integral member of their side. |
It often seemed like Kante was playing alone in the centre of midfield for Chelsea last season. This year, he has adopted more of a box-to-box role, which has taken some of the spotlight off his shoulders. He has still been just as impressive, though. |
The reason Kante no longer anchors the Blues midfield is because Sarri’s trusted Italian in the middle of the park has taken on that role. Jorginho has been outstanding early on, recording the most passes and touches in the league so far. |
Ross Barkley put in a good display last time out at Southampton - and for United, Paul Pogba probably takes the last space in midfield if in form - yet Kovacic is a classy player who moves the ball well, and will only get better for Sarri’s men. |
There was talk of the Brazilian leaving Stamford Bridge for Barcelona last summer. Sarri insisted he stayed, though, which has proved a smart decision so far. When playing in the right system, Willian is a highly underrated asset for the Blues. |
The first name on this hypothetical team sheet is Hazard, who is head and shoulders the best player in the Premier League at the minute. All he has needed to add to his game is more goals, and he has seven already in 2018/19. |
He has only netted four goals in his first eight games, yet Lukaku gets the nod upfront in this XI due to serious lack of competition in the Blue corner, with Alvaro Morata and Olivier Giroud providing the weak spot in Sarri’s otherwise impressive outfit. That’s not to say he isn’t improving game by game, nevertheless. |

Editor's Note: This story first appeared in the York Daily Record on Friday, Oct. 15, 1993. Read the second part here. |
Louis J. Appell Jr. is one of the richest and most powerful figures in York County, but you might pass him on the street without realizing it. |
His public deeds belie an intensely private life. Posed on the white porch railing one day in August 1991, Louis J. Appell Jr. was obviously uncomfortable. He like the idea of an article about his family's pottery business, Pfaltzgraff, but he didn't think the mockup of a 1940s kitchen in the background said much about... |
Appell was "kind of crabby," said Beverly Hawkins, now the managing editor of Country Home magazine. The photo shoot was at the Historical Society of York County, where Pfaltzgraff exhibit honored the York company's 19th-century roots. When the photo appeared in the June 1992 issue of Country Home, Appell, wearing a da... |
In fact, the slender, 5-foot-10 Appell would prefer that you weren't reading this. By his own definition, Appell is not a public figure because he does not hold public office and therefore his life should be a closed book. "Worth and goodness" But a case can be made to the contrary. |
Consider that Susquehanna Pfaltzgraff, which Appell's family owns, employs about 1,500 people in York County. His company providers your cable television is you live in the York area. It also owns most of the billboards you pass if you drive on Interstate 83 to Harrisburg or Baltimore; local radio stations WSBA-AM and ... |
Appell is a member of at least nine boards of directors, including General Public Utilities Corp., which provides electricity to most of York County through its Metropolitan Edison Co. subsidiary and owns the Three Mile Island nuclear plant. |
At any rate, there is a striking paradox to Appell's insistence on anonymity all these years: He has divulged a fair amount about his life already, on matters ranging from business to community to family, including a divorce. Such details are included in class reports marking various anniversaries of Harvard University... |
"It is difficult for me to be philosophical in print without being long-winded and pompous," he wrote for his 25th anniversary in 1972, continuing: "So far as mankind is concerned, I maintain a basically idealistic and optimistic view of the worth and goodness of man as an individual; and a corresponding distrust of th... |
The reports are compiled in hardback books with red covers that are available to the public at Harvard's archives in Cambridge, Mass. The writings, plus interviews with about 20 people who know Appell, provide insights about his behind-the-scenes life. Appell declined to be interviewed on the record for this story. The... |
Although his name may be more familiar than his face, Appell needs no introductions among York County's movers and shakers. |
Arthur W. Carlson, president of Appell's Susquehanna Radio Corp., which owns 15 stations and operates two others across the country, has known Appell for more than three decades. He suggested that being Louis Appell carries a certain burden. |
