I hope Hussein Obama never comes back to Tucson, we don't need him........|||I was offended by the specter of a pep rally in what was supposed to be a somber event. I think if I had heard mmmmmm, mmmmmm, mmmmmm going on I probably would have thrown something at the television. I think the mmmmmm, mmmmmm, mmmmmm would have spoiled the kumbaya moment the Obama machine was artificially trying to create. I hope the Republicans ignore the clarion call for "can't we all get along" "okie dokie".|||It was an embarrassment wasn`t it but I was given a real nice blue T-shirt at the memorial(rally). It says "Together we thrive" straight from Obamas campaign. Isn`t that special.

He is campaigning for 2012. From what I heard all his followers were there to see their messiah!
Its too bad that such a tragedy happened so he could have a platform to perform on!|||what memorial?
By all sounds and appearances, you are right .
It was clearly a campaign rally|||your right if the crowd broke out with the mmmm mmmmm mmmmm BHO
wow and imagine how much of a tingle up their leg they would feel..|||Pep rally? Do you have any sympathy? Just because folks were feeling happy following a tragedy does not mean its a "pep rally." You are offensive.
Really? You have sympathy? So titling a memorial service (which I'll be honest with you, was raucous) a pep rally and putting Tuscon Memorial in quotes is sympathetic to tragedy? I don't think so, buddy!
First, why don't you know what kind of gas mileage you get from your vehicle?
Second, we are not mind readers. Might help us just a teensy bit to know what kind of vehicle you drive.
Third, what route will you be taking? Failed to mention that in your failed attempt at a question.
Fourth, are you aware of FREE mapping programs such as MapQuest, Google Maps, and Yahoo Maps? If yes, then at least you could tell us how many miles you will be covering during your trip.
So, I will make up an answer.
16 mpg and trip will cover 830 miles at an average of $3.60 a gallon.
You will need about $190 to cover the cost of gas. I would have $225 available just in case.|||Depends on your route length in miles, travelling conditions, type of vehicle you drive and it's running condition, and of course, gas prices|||about an arm, a leg, and a left nut nowadays.
On Meet the Press, NBC only mentioned that book by name, but the Communist Manifesto or any other. Is that because of NBC's clear-cut left-wing agenda, or just some highly coincidental oversight?
NBC is probably too stupid to even know that Mein Kampf is also far left-wing, not right-wing as the liberal-biased media would have us believe.|||Wow. Everybody in the WHOLE F**KING WORLD (i.e Outside America) KNOWS Mein Kampf is a right-wing book, writtern by a right-wing, Fascist, Nazi, white supremacist idiot.
What's wrong with you people? You cons are really proving the "Americans are dumb" theory that the rest of the world has about you! GROW A BRAIN.|||PROBABLY because he also had a copy of Ayn Rand's "We The People" on his list as well, which if you knew anything about political writing, (which you clearly don't by the way), you would know is about as Anti-communist as it gets, which makes speculating on him being a communist absolutely pointless.
Also, Hitler was a Fascist, get your sh*t straight. Just because his party had Socialist in the name doesn't mean it operated under Socialist terms of Government, which include the Social Contract and complete equality among all peoples, along with freedom of Religion and Freedom of Expression, which were all things that Hitler Clearly and Blatantly reneged on.
He ran a FASCIST, yes, that's FASCIST Dictatorship. Don't believe me? Crack open some Thomas Hobbes, Some Karl Marx, John Stuart Mill, Immanuel Kant, or even Jefferson himself, and read about Political history, before you open your mouth and spew the crap that's been spouted by Glenn Beck over again. You'll learn a hell of a lot more that way.|||Maybe you didn't know that book was part of Racial supremacy theory which Hitler ran his platform for his government. This book is neither left wing or Right Wing It is Racist, Anti Zionist, an Anti- anyone whose not White. Maybe these nuts on yahoo who try an use it any other way an say it's liberal or conservative need to go back to school. Seriously the uneducated who followed the Heroin Addict Hitler an these on yahoo who uses politics for evil are same bunch.|||The media only cares about private business industry - and the bottom line which is profit .
A very right Wing attitude .
No You are stupid ( lack education ) to think that Mien Kampf is any thing but ultra right wing .
Nice try at the twist and spin though.|||I've read and own copies of both of those books.
They sit on my shelf right next to The Conscience of a Conservative, Steal This Book, The Satanic Bible, Leviathan and Harry Potter.
Does this make me a psychotic killer?|||Mein Kampf is far left wing?
You dazzled everyone with your ignorance on that one.
Would you call the Mein Kampf reading neo-Nazi or the skinheads in the US as 'far left wing'?
Get a clue.|||Because mentioning Alice in Wonderland was a little too gay for their storyline.|||They did it on purpose to make the shooter look like a right winger.|||hitler actually believed the third reich was in the christian god (yhwh's) plan for him|||...when you say it a bunch of times, it makes your nose tickle...

How long will it take by local train from Phoenix to the Tucson or bus?|||LOL,..sorry but there is no local train or bus that goes between Tucson and Phoenix :( You really do need a car out here.
By Car it's just around a 2 hour drive between the 2 depending on freeway construction if you run into that then it will take well over 2 hours. It's 125 miles mostly to the north of here.
The only train is freight, the folks out here have a phobia with public transportation unfortunately.
So rent a car or fly.
There is a Greyhound, not widely used and not very good!!!|||:) Thanks Have a good trip Report Abuse
|||There is no rail service between Phoenix and Tucson, and a bus will take about 2 hours. It's roughly 100 miles between the two cities.|||Greyhound bus to Tucson takes about 2 1/2 hours considering a few stops!|||There's no train, but a bus ride will take between 1.5 to 2 hours, depending upon how often it stops.|||no train but bus will take 2 hours cause its about 120 miles
Just wondering, since I hear that the city is real spread out with a lot of desert still preserved is there a problem with animals?|||The areas inside Tucson, no. The areas around Tucson yes. The problem with animals is people are stupid when it comes to wild life. They leave food out for a cute little cat, the cat eats their dog because it was a bobcat. They will leave us alone if we leave them alone.|||There are issues everywhere throughout the city, moreso in the fringes. Bobcats and javelinas are the biggest problems in the suburban desert areas as far as domestic pets being hurt or killed, but the area to the north also has problems with mountain lions.
But, inside the city, if you're close to a wash, your pets are also in danger. Coyotes and javelinas are well known to travel along these to pass the development and remain unseen. I've personally seen a coyote in Arroyo Chico, only a couple of miles from Downtown Tucson. If you have a little dog or cat, they will eat them without much hesitation.
The same goes for the rattlesnakes within the washes. With snakes, wherever there are rodents, that's where they will be.
2005 hyundai tucson, kind of sputters when starting from a complete stop, no engine light on, runs fine otherwise, i noticed when i let off the brake for a couple seconds then step on gas, it's not as bad, but if i go straight from brake to gas, doesn't want to go. Also, the colder it is, the worse it is. Any ideas what may be wrong? I have tried dry gas, fuel injector cleaner, and checked transmission fluid, which was fine.|||sounds like your brakes are sticking

I am looking for things to do in Tucson, Arizona. I am young and free... New to the area. Can anyone help guide me on things to do?|||after living in arizona for six years I can tell you this. "free" is only a word.
Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum.
Its not fun but its interesting some of the things you'll see in the gift shop.
There really isn't anything in Arizona.. period. The only thing I ever looked forward to was when sun splash opened and when the electric light parade started.
Hey! that should be coming up soon... or maybe it already happened?
I'm really sorry, but if you want "fun" your gonna have to move pheonix.
Small piece of advice. the further you get from tucson and arizona city, the better!
You will soon discover that there is a healthy [pardon the language] crack head population those areas and your neighbors know someone who was robbed just last month. Stay safe and remember one thing.
You are allowed to carry a knife that is under 3.8inches and (if you have the permit) to publicly display firearms.
If you need to move ASAP Casa Grande is the place to be. Its calm and work is readily available.
avoid Coolidge and Arapaho County if you can. Bad places. You should definitely check out Globe if you get the chance. The roads will absolutely blow you mind! especially the one by the middle school.

Was Obama holding the "Applause" sign? Why do they blame Obama for Americans loving him soo much that they can't control their cheers? He wasn't asking them to make noise!
Is it jealousy? or are they angry because they found out that Fox News lied to them?|||They're blaming him because they know that fomenting anger and hatred is the only tool they had for making electoral gains in November. They're not going to let go of that, regardless of the greater cost.|||They are showing their true colors. If anyone had any doubts about the intellect of conservatives, they shouldn't have it now.
The event was not a memorial service or funeral. If the people of Tucson felt a sense of solidarity and wanted to cheer the President, why should he tell them to shut up? It was their event.
The world is getting to see how desprate they are to find reasons to blame Obama for everything.
People often cheer a popular president. In spite of their hatred, Obama is a popular president. The eight years of Bush has gone down in history as a failed presidency.
They can't stand it.
I once farted at a Bush rally, is that Bush's fault?|||I think the president did fine. The crowd needed to realize this was a memorial for the people killed by the wacko and have a little more respect. I also had a problem with the people who actually stopped the gunman not being up front, seems funny to me the only person up front that was at the incident was the guy who helped the congresswoman. Seems like they keep focusing on her, she was not the only victim.|||He did nothing to discourage it.
It was going on from the beginning, before he was even the speaker.
Clearly the crowd had been warmed up by the community organizers before the event even started.
Please, this was no accident. It was planned this way.|||Um.. We aren't. At least I am not. But jeez why do you keep stirring the pot in this political section about the Arizona Tragedy.
You are just making yourself look as bad as those conservatives that are doing that.|||OK
So exactly WHO was "in charge" at the rally?
On the one hand, the left proclaims Obama as a great leader. Then, on the other hand, he cannot control a little crowd of his supporters.|||He is suppose to be the leader of the free world, right? Why not simply say, "Let's keep in mind this is a memorial service" or "Please hold your applause until the end", something like that would have worked.|||What did the world leader with the microphone do to stop it?
Could he have said, "No applause for me, please"?
Maybe not because it wasn't on the teleprompter.|||I don't know, but as a conservative, I disagree with them.
By the way, Greasy Tony's is a Tucson restaurant chain, quite coincidentally.|||The Democrats love to hold a pep rally at memorials services.

You could also try to upload some of your football skills on YouTube and gain fame, some big teams may be impressed and invite for a trial.
They all look the same to me and obviously the size might be the important difference? But that's why I'm asking. What's the best year?

If you were to buy the Tuscon i recommend the 2007~ present year, as this car came in 2006 or 05, it fixed many of things from it.
The Sante Fe is the middle SUV in the line up of SUV at Hyundai. It is probably the most popular SUV. It has the practicality as well as the luxeries you need and price is good too. Performance is competitive compared toward other SUVs such as Ford Escape. Leather interior 6 disc changer 4 wd you name it, this car got it.
If you were to buy Santa Fe, I recommend you getting the newly redisgned model...
from 06 to present.

I have to go to work and my kids have school but he did not care. I spoke to him once and he still did it. So a few weeks ago I called the police and told them about it and the operator could literally hear the music over the phone. So they sent some one over and it took them over 30 minutes of knocking and ringing the bell before he came to the door. They were going to break it in when he opened. After they spoke to him they came to my house and was asking if I wanted to file a complaint I did not but if you need to call the local police department and ask them the procedure for your city and state. But they may have to have it on record that a cop has spoken to them not just your word against their word|||Call police non-emergency. It is a police matter. It's disturbing the peace.|||You will have to call the cops but make sure you call the non emergency number. If you live in an apt. complex contact the manager. It is all confidential.

My husband is going on a very long hike and is wanting to find a walking stick. I have no idea where to get one. I called Academy and they do not carry them.
We are new to the area and don't really know where to look.|||I personally am not too fond of commercial "walking sticks". Usually, they are too flimsy for extended use.
Your best bet is the local lumberyard or a hardware store that carries "dowels", or "doweling". You'll want something along the line of one-inch doweling, about five feet in length.
You'll also need some medium-grit and fine-grit sandpaper, in order to finish the dowel properly. Simply sand down any rough spots until it is smooth. (Do try and pick one that has minimal rough spots.) <g>
Then, apply some preservative -- Tung Oil or Boiled linseed oil is best. (I lean towards "Formby's" brand Tung Oil, but that's me.) Apply the oil liberally, and let it soak in for about a day. Re-sand any areas which swelled out.
Apply another coat, wait a day, and sand again. Apply some more -- you want the oil to soak deep into the wood.
My stick has seen about two year's of usage, with hardly any damage.
Regards,
Gaucho|||I order stuff from these people for everything, they also offer walking sticks/shafts.

I live in the Phoenix area and my '91 Acura Integra just failed the pressure test part of the e-check. Everything else passed.
I'm in the process of saving for a newer car, so I'm trying not to put additional money into it outside of normal maintenance.

Tthe leader of Westboro Baptist Church, an anti-gay Kansas-based church best known for picketing the funerals of slain U.S. soldiers and gay-pride gatherings, said its members will picket the funerals of the 9-year-old girl and five others killed in Saturday's attack. In a video, Fred Phelps says God sent the shooter to avenge the nation's sins.
"Thank God for the violent shooter," Phelps proclaims.
"We will remind the living that you can still repent and obey. This is ultimatum time with God."

Christ preached unconditional love and tolerance. He was a friend to sinners and came to the rescue of the alduterous woman rather than stone her to death as the Pharisees would have liked to have seen. In fact, Phelps is the very Pharisees who crucified Christ because of his message of love and acceptance.
As scripture quotes, those who praise His name and yet commit none of His words to their life will be told that He does not know them when they meet the Lord. They will be cast into a firey pit for eternity. I can only imagine Phelps and his so-called church will be made to face such a punishment.
Phelps is just a tool of the devil himself and the dumbass doesn't even know it.|||Fred Phelps is most definitely not a Christian he doesn't know the meaning of the word. It is not his position to make any judgments that's God's job. God says we are to love one another like you would love you neighbor or your brother. Not to hate people. God hates no one he loves everyone but hates the sin.
Fred Phelps lives a life of sin and hatred. I actually feel sorry for him, he wasted his whole life hating and sinning an thinking he accomplished something.|||Some of my family is Catholic and I find Fred Phelps and his entire family that are still members of Westboro Baptist Church to be the most hateful people in the country. God does not send shooters and I would not be the least bit shocked when the entire Westboro Baptist Church gets cast into the lake of fire for eternity.|||I'm a Christian. I don't consider Phelps a Christian as he lives a life of hatred and bigotry. Christians are supposed to love their neighbors and accept them.
He's just serving his own agenda, trying to say he's carrying out God's will.|||To call Phelps a Christian is to call a dog a deer....they aren't the same|||disband them.
I want to see it before I buy it and be able to return it if there is a problem.|||There aren't any authorized Viewsat dealers in Arizona, let alone Tucson. Most reputable online retailers have a return policy of some sort but you'll still be out the shipping. You could always sell it on eBay too.
EDIT: Brick and mortar stores which sell FTA gear are kind of hard to come by. Personally, we're lucky to have one two hours away from here. I'm sure you could care less whether they're authorized or unauthorized but put it this way. If they're not authorized then Viewsat isn't shipping their product to them. How would a retailer keep a good stock for Viewsat products if they weren't getting them direct from the manufacturer? I guess a pawn shop would be an option. They're someone who wouldn't be authorized which may have one and would take returns.... There are FTA B&M stores in Nevada so if you're up for a road trip you could go over there to check one out in person. I wish I could give you a good analogy that you'd understand. For me, FTA is like ham radio gear. Ham radio stores aren't exactly on every street corner. Many states or provinces don't have a single one. That leaves the rest of us up to buying things sight unseen and based on what we read on the internet and what other people tell us about the product. FTA just isn't popular enough to justify a B&M store everywhere. Places where there are HUGE first generation immigrant populations from countries which speak languages not served by local television will have an FTA place. If Tucson fits the bill, perhaps some entrepreneurial person will set one up there someday but as it stands right now, you're probably not going to find a new Viewsat anything in town. You can try Craigslist or Satelliteguys.us and see if someone local will let you try theirs out before you buy one.
I mean, I've received like 50 emails regarding the recovery of the Senator and all the various stories of mental issues the shooter had (because shooters ALWAYS have issues...), so I was wondering, is there some reason behind the media's harping on this? Gun control? I have no idea...|||It's called Domestic Terrorism! They should focus on the victims and not the jerk who did it. Maybe if the idiots didn't get so much attention, there wouldn't be so many of them doing things.|||!st of all, she was not a senator. She is a congresswoman. It is always news when someone in the news is hurt. Just look at all of the attention over the death of the bleached pervert a year or so ago. this is more important than that. This woman was trying to do good not hide in wonderland and chase boys.|||It's a shooting. People have died. When this happens in a society, isn't that significant? Or doesn't it matter?|||Because the news cannot find anything better to report on, so they linger on this.|||Could it be that a Federal Judge was killed and a member of Congress was wounded? Just a guess...|||.
I am a 26 yr old mother of 3, and after years of being misdiagnosed with all different types of back problems, they found i have degenerative disc disease, my doctor referred my to see Dr.Farr in tucson, and was wondering if anyone else has seen him.|||I have not seen this doctor but there is a website called ratemds.com that you can visit and people can rate their personal experience with doctors.
It was an OK speech. About as good of a speech that a politician can generate though it seemed more like a pep rally than a mournful speech to me. I mean why the heck would people cheer at a memorial service?|||Just another campaign speech to liberal college students !|||Those who would mock a memorial remind us of Reverend Phelps.
The people of Arizona have a lot of steam to blow off after this terrible tragedy. Every memorial service I've attended has had some laughter, and several had some applause.

##|||I'm a Tucson resident and I went to the memorial service. After the incident on Saturday, our city has been gloomy and mournful. We cannot believe that this happened in our own back yard. The speeches is what we really needed to pick ourselves up again. What they said motivated us and helped us pick up the pieces. This is why he cheered. Why did the service have to be sad? We need to heal, and we're not going to if we are going to keep our heads down and think of the negative
-maybe you feel like this because you're not from tucson? it's really different when it happens to your own city. I mean if it happened to your's and I watched it on T.V with all the cheering I would be upset, but I can't understand how the city feels because it wouldn't be mine.|||I honestly didn't watch it. But given his presence and considering his notable absence from the memorial at Ft. Hood, I can't help but wonder if maybe we're witnessing a massive step forward in Social Darwinism. On second thought, it just strikes me as a photo op and a little premature campaigning.|||He is still on the campaign trail. He talked about civility after saying during one of his speeches if they bring a knife we will bring a gun. He and the Liberals will milk this disaster for everything it's worth.|||i thought it was good. If you ask me the people shouldn't have clapped either, but what are they gonna do about it.... and after all, maybe that's what Tucson needs, something to pep themselves back up|||I thought he looked pretty upset about everything that had happened. It actually felt like he didnt want to speak about it (as it was upsetting).|||He should have taken a lesson from past memorial services.|||I will have to agree with you on Obama's Speech. It did seem like a pep rally for a high school football team!!
:-)
Most Arizonans already wanted Obama to head back to Berlin. After this latest Democrat Fiasco, Obama need not return to the Wild Wild West State of Tombstone and the Boothill Cemetery. Obama also did not mention the 2 Border Patrol Agents who have been Murdered by Illegal Alien Gang bangers from Mexico in Arizona.|||I agree. Can you imagine seeing people wearing t-shirts with the name of your deceased relative on the back as a constant reminder?|||Count the lies, folks. This is what is tearing our country apart. By the way, it's the Grand Canyon State.
Why would he mention the Border Patrol? This was a memorial for the victims of the Tucson shooting.
Fiasco? Only in your mind. Even conservatives are saying this was an impressive event and an incredible speech. Obama's numbers have shot up in the last few days. Boehner screwed up by staying in Washington to attend a cocktail party.|||He did what any President would do. If you supported him you would applaud his remarks but it seems you dont so you diss him instead. I am suprised no one from your gun lobby turned up and asked people not to give up their guns.....is Charlton Heston dead now....or does someone else do his dirty work for the NRA.

I was thinking about going to a few meetings to see if it was worth joining. I'm an avid reader of medieval and Renaissance history and would love to take up archery again. Are there any members that could really tell me more info from their perspective?|||*make sure that you copy and paste carefully to avoid the ()'s*
There appears to be two groups in Tucson, AZ. The main group would be called "Barony of Tir Ysgithr", ( http://www.btysca.org/ ) and a second group affiliated with the University of Arizona called "College of St. Felix" ( http://www.clubs.arizona.edu/~stfelix/ ).
I am unsure whether the University group hosts Archery or not, however there is a yahoogroup for archery at the Baronial level. ( http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/Tir鈥?/a> ).
The Barony of Tir Ysgithr also has a YahooGroup ( http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TirYsgithr鈥?/a> )
Your best bet would be to contact the Chatelaine (member charged with helping Newcomers) for the group closest to you, and asking them to introduce you to a few people and recommend some events to give you a better idea of what the SCA in that area is and does.|||Extending on the first answer, the Barony of Tir Ysgithr hosts archery practice on Saturdays from 9am - noon at the PSE Archery Factory Pro Shop.
You can get more information about the practice schedule and who to contact here - (http://btyarchery.org/)
The barony is amazing. It is full of happy, kind, and helpful people. It is highly active, boasting easily over 100-150 people at each Tuesday night fighter practice. I highly recommend that you come by and check things out. For archery specifically, there are loaner bows and arrows at the site that you can use should you be interested in taking advantage of those resources.|||thank you thank you all . . . . apparently, I once was a member when I was 15-18 although I didn't realize at the time it was the SCA . . . probably some chapter branch in Orange County, CA. I am so looking forward to going to these events. I hope the members are just as helpful (and friendly) as you two have been!
Blessings fall on you both! :-)
Knowing their record of showing up where ever there has been innocent people murdered by gun usage...
aka the Little Rock Shooting
I would assume they are already packing their bags.|||I hope so. It sounds like Tucson needs it. Out of that whole crowd, apparently not one person was armed and able to stop that loon from hurting so many. I find it pretty sad that people in this country refuse to take precautions when it comes to protecting their lives and the lives of others. I don't leave the house without being armed. Even if I am just walking to the mailbox in my bathrobe, I have my .38 special tucked in the pocket. I'm sorry but I value my life too much to allow it to be snuffed out by some loon out looking to make a name for him or her self. Someone wants to hurt me or my family, I am gonna make em work for it instead of rolling over with my tail between my legs.|||Wow well love's answer sucked but mine isn't going to be much better.
A: I'm not in the NRA so I don't know what they are going to do, why don't you write them a letter. People on YA are just going to give you uneducated biased answers which are inaccurate and can only create animosity. but then again I don't know what the intentions of your question are.
Case in point: Love's answer|||No. They already had on in Phoenix in 2008. I went to that one as well. Actually a nice convention. More guns than people; no one got shot.|||Her security should of done their jobs better and used their guns on him before he used his.|||It would be their right, if not indelicate and possible in bad taste.|||Yep, and we er gonna kill em Mexicans and protect our freeeedom.|||Like Columbine??

Report Abuse
All the political smear aside,am I right in assuming that all Americans would agree with that statement?|||Absolutely. As a gun owner myself, I would fully support psychiatric testing required for the purchase of any firearm. It's not going to prevent myself or any other sane person from owning a weapon... but it will indeed *help* to weed out the crazies like this kid, who legally owned the weapon he used.|||Nobody that has been adjudicated to by mentally ill or "defective" can buy a gun. That has been a federal law for a long time. However even the mentally ill have civil rights and are guaranteed due process.
You can't deny anyone their civil rights just because you don't like how they live, or how they look or how they talk.|||Yes we would all agree to that.The problem here is that his mental problems went undiagnosed(i am assuming)so he would have nothing to stop him from buying a gun.If he had been diagnosed would be filed and he would not have been able to buy a gun.So what we should be talking about is the many decades of failure of the mental health care system,not addressed in the health care bill by the way.|||Do I agree that mentally unstable people should not be permitted to buy guns? Absolutely!
Where we will probably differ is the definition and diagnosis of "mentally unstable".
Quite frankly if more people had been armed at that rally that nutjob would have been lucky to get one shot off.|||Anybody in this country can get a gun, you don't need to attain one legally. It is much less likely someone would murder someone with a registered gun that can be traced back to them rather than an unregistered one. So I really don't see how that would help anything, but if it makes you feel safer sure. If someone really wants to go out and open fire on a group of people, I don't think any government regulations are going to stop them.|||He apparently passed an FBI background check.
Don't confuse legal gun ownership with gun violence. The two have little correlation. It is widely documented that guns used in most gun violence are obtained illegally. FBI crime stats show crackdowns on illegal guns reduce crime. Note illegal guns, not legally bought and permitted guns.
Reminder, Drunk drivers kill more people than guns...so shouldnt we all be screaming for more DUI checkpoints instead of worrying about Mrs. Jane Q. Public buying and permitting a carry gun for her purse?|||Who gets to judge who is crazy.
I think most liberal democrats are totally loony tunes and they probably think I am.
Unfortunately you can't pick out the crazies until they end up in front of a judge and some head shrinkers.|||The trick is, how does a gun store clerk determine if a person is mentally ill? They're not qualified to make that diagnosis, and if they weren't previously diagnosed as being mentally ill, nothing would turn up on a background check.|||Yes, but lib privacy hawks at the ACLU will oppose it. Because they will argue a mental competency test, issued by the government, to secure a gun, is an invasion of privacy.|||Hell, there are stable people that should not have guns. But because its a so called freedom then everyone wants one and can get one. You don't even have to go to a gun store and wait for your background check.|||Pretty much. The problem is how you identify and track them without violating their rights, or in fact violating yours and mine because we've built such a draconian system. For now I'd rather risk an occasional lunatic going off than lose all our liberties.|||mentally unstable describes 90% of people on the government payroll. they dont restrict themselves, just others.|||"Should not," then no.
Mentally ill people CANNOT buy guns. It is illegal, but they have to be adjudicated insane first.
Loughner slipped through the cracks.|||I totally agree if that was law 6 people in AZ would be alive today and 30 something people would be alive in Va.|||Does that include teabaggers?
How else would they be able to turn to their 2nd amendment remedies?|||We can agree that the mentally unstable won't agree.|||You would think that would be the "personally responsible" thing to do.|||I didn't think liberals owned guns anyway.|||yeah planes work so much more effectively
Guns really do not kill people
people really do kill people.|||Yes but we already have laws that cover this. You have to be certified crazy.|||What?!! How dare you step on ANYBODY'S right to own and potentially misuse a lethal weapon!!!|||You are 100% correct.|||ok...|||Yes, liberals should not be allowed
What particularly struck me was the absense of "boos" whether the speech was given by liberals or conseratives. It was a lovely evening. I loved the invocation at the beginning.|||Yes, I did listen and I would have been saddened if there were boos. I am not an Obama supporter but I think he did a wonderful job with his speech as did the others who spoke. Sometimes a tragedy like this will have good come from it and I hope the president believes what he said and this will be the beginning for positive change in a politically charged atmosphere. There couldn't be a better memorial for those who lost their life than to have our political leaders realize, along with all of us, that we are all citizens of this great nation and it's time to stop intentionally hurting others for political gain. Those who lost their lives, and the heroes of this unfolding story, deserve better ... we all do. Those people who acted in an unselfish way to help others in their time of great need didn't take time to consider what political party they were affiliated with ... they were just people who needed their help and they did what they could ... even if it cost them great harm or even loss of life. I do hope our political leaders will consider what President Obama had to say and set aside their hatred for the "other side" and come together with those whom they have disagreements with and compromise for the good of all. I believe this tragedy has touched us all and we share in the grief of those who mourn as if they were members of our own families. This should tell us something about our divisions ... hopefully that our compassion for others is greater than our desire to bring them harm.
As I looked at the face of President Obama I believe I saw true sorrow and compassion and it is my hope that this will be the beginning of a healing for our country that we have needed for so many years.|||The memorial service was on the campus of the University of Arizona in Tucson. I've read that security was high (as it should be for the President and his family).
But, I think that when high profile visitors come to campuses and speak, the students and guests are respectful and avoid casting a bad light on their school with disrespect towards speaker.
I want to mention here that I am very tired of those Westboro protesters and how they want to disrupt the victims funerals. I don't know how they prevented those folks from disrupting today's memorial service.
Good luck. I liked the speech. It is a very difficult situation for anyone to address.|||Yes, I did. I think it might be the best speech that President Obama has ever given. He concentrated on the importance of everyone coming together to help build a stronger nation where ideas can be shared without violence. He stressed the imagination of one child that all the adults who are showing such hate these days should emulate and make genuine attempts to talk to one another and really listen with our own adult imaginations, instead getting stuck like unmoving rocks with absolutely no intention of ever compromising or using our imaginations to even attempt to find other solutions. Anyone who didn't listen to his speech certainly should. It made lots and lots of sense.
Some of you have mentioned the screaming and yelling. It seems that anytime these events are scheduled in sports arenas, the behavior of the crowds reverts to sports arena behavior. I think that maybe this time that was OK. The applause and the cheers kind of added some encouragement and some hope, for me anyway.|||Obama can give a good speech. Too bad he can't run a country. I don't see how having 6 people dead and a large number wounded, could possibly equal a lovely evening. Somehow, I do not think the families of the dead, those who were wounded and their families, believed it was a lovely evening, and no matter how eloquent the speeches, nothing has changed.|||I was surprised by the yelling and whistling in the audience. I felt it was disrespectful for a memorial service. It is wonderful that Rep. Giffords has her eyes opened. I was glad to hear scripture and the reference to God for blessings of the family and nation in the President's words. I only heard the president's words.|||I agree with you, the invocation by the Native American was impressive, however the rest of it disturbed me very much..I felt it was like a big pep-rally. Not the time or place for applause or whistles.
I also know Obama was called down on his lack of emotion the other day by more than 1 news commentator..which leaves me to wonder exactly how much of his LLOONNGG speech was really sincere|||Yes I watched it and thought it was a beautiful speech. He gives a sincere message. He is not the best president ever but he is not as arrogant as George W. and a lot easier to listen to than George W, was. I didn't';t like that smirk smile George W. always had on his face. I just wanted to smack him.|||I didn't want to watch, thought it would be just too sad. I did wind up turning it on though and was so surprised to see and hear the love. Yes, it was still sad but didn't dwell on it as a negative. Very uplifting program.|||I listened. I was impressed at what everyone said....and was delighted at the enthusiastic response & support for WHAT was said.
So much NICER than the ranting hate and fear speech SOMEONE else usually babbles from morning till night.|||My hope and prayer would be that the feeling which permeated those who heard the memorial speeches would abidingly permeate our entire nation.|||I missed it. Have seen clips. Am on C-Span now to hear it discussed. I like what Obama said about more civility in public discourse.|||I listen to NOTHING the POTUS has to say about anything. The sooner he's gone the better.|||Yes, it was beautiful. I loved President Obama's speech.|||I did and I was impressed!|||I did not.|||No, I'm tired of hearing about the story.|||Nope, I was to busy on here..=)|||It was very good
I'm interested in anything. I am also looking for some great photography spots as well.|||Well there is many museums: the Desert Museum, Arizona Wildlife Museum and Pima Air just to name a few. We have an awesome Reid Park Zoo. Also you can take a walk/hike to Sabino Canyon there's water there and you could take some great photos. You could go fishing at the many lakes around. Or go to Breaker's Water Park or any pool since it's hot!! There's Old Tucson, The Biosphere 2, Or Botanical Gardens. There's baseball games at Randolph Park (Toros). You can go to 4th Ave and check out their restaurants, shops,and bars. Bison Witches is a great sandwich/soup shop on 4th Ave. You can check out the University. La Encantada is our nice and new mall near Campbell/Sunrise. Check out downtown and eat some good Mexican food at Cafe Poca Cosa. The top of Swan (north) you can take some great pics of Tucson. Some night clubs are: Cactus Moon, Pearl, and Level. Nogales, Mexico is only 45 miniute drive too. Have fun!|||The top of A mountain, you can get a good view of all of Tucson.
The AZ desert museum is cool, they have all sorts of desert flowers in bloom depending on the time of year.
Another spot, not so cliche is Tucson Mountain Park. When you get to the otherside of the mountain there's just cacti galore and it really makes me think of being in the desert. The sunsets are pretty there too. You just take speedway all the way out west and keep going til you want to come back, you'll see beautiful areas.
Sabino Canyon is pretty too, although it is very touristy.
I'm headed to Tucson for a wedding this coming weekend, and would like to use some of my spare time to see the country near there. I'm staying on the north side near the Catalina mountains.
Can anyone recommend a good day hike around that area? I'll have a rental car, and don't mind driving a little ways if its worth it.
Thanks!|||Esperero Trail to Bridal Veil Falls, Santa Catalina Mountains. This hike is very scenic, and not that heavily traveled. If you don't feel like doing the whole 12 miles, at least go up to Geronimo Meadows, which is only about an hour in. Check out the included link for more info on this hike.|||Might want to do a search on Mt. Lemmon, Sabino Canyon, Chiva Falls, or Madera Canyon. It really depends on what type of a hike you're looking for.

By attending the memorial service he is politicizing the event. Is this turning down the rhetoric???|||Yeah, he refused to come to Arizona for two years while it is being invaded by Mexican bandits, but now he comes. He's such a freakin' phony!|||.... When a political Congresswoman is shot at a political rally, it IS political. It doesn't get more political than that. When a Congresswoman is shot, OF COURSE the President should acknowledge the event and come out against it, and in support of those who are suffering from the event. Once again, President Obama is doing exactly the right thing -- unlike Bush, who partied while New Orleans drowned.|||I don't care for Obama, but it seems reasonable and expected that he would be there. What he chooses to say while there will determine if he is politicizing it. Hopefully, he'll be respectful and call a spade a spade.|||It's really simple...
Politics, or our political culture, has everything to do with a POLITICIAN being shot.
But no. He is going there because he is the leader of our nation.|||And if Obama didn't shown any concern about the tragedy you people would politicize that saying Obama doesn't care.
Damn man, politics just NEVER stops. It never does.|||He's the President attending a service where a Congresswoman was shot. Come on.|||Obama would politicize taking a dump if he could.|||i heard he shook hands with a democrat today....when will his "politicizing" stop???|||So he can start his world apology tour.....|||Yeah, that's really going to help the current situation, right?|||No. But you are.

was not known to follow or listen to conservative radio such as Limbaugh, Hannity, Boortz,and Laura Ingraham? Maybe it contradicts their spin, and suggests their incompetence and laziness?|||The media isn't very interested in facts: liberal or conservative. They work for ratings and that's about it. Their job is to make money. Calling the media liberal is like calling a mother of 4 a virgin. It's a great story, but no truth behind it. The media is very mainstream and overall it is conservative. They thought the bombing of the Murrah bombing was an islamic terrorist when it was a white conservative christian. It goes both ways.|||Much of the media supports liberal causes. Anyone that does not support such causes is treated as an uncaring villain. There are liberals in the media and political field who feel everyone must be "politically correct"...in other words, you must share their views or you are guilty of all the terrible things that happen in the world. They can't bring themselves to admit that the shooter is responsible for his own actions. It wouldn't support their mission of silencing any opposition.
To be fair, I think we must also realize that the liberal and conservative side of the media have both been guilty of using the media to advance their causes. To a point it's okay, but when events such as this are used, it's disgraceful.|||they want to keep their jobs for one. the owners of the media are liberals, probably socialists and God knows what else.|||They will be confounded by their own deceptive ways as advised from the text of a great book, the holy scripture!|||Because what radio stations and insane unstable half-tard listens to makes no difference at all?

He was at his Jr high school and had two joints in his backpack. After authorities were notified the boy and his entire family are being sent back to Mexico because they were in this country illegally.
Some are happy to be rid of the illegals, but this seems like severe treatment and all the family must now be deported. I don't really know how to feel about this. Were the people generally law abiding? Were the parents employed and eligible for legal status? What are your thoughts and feelings?|||Just to let you know, there are some people with brain cells that actually can connect a thought or two here :)
There are lots of cases lately like this that have led to rapid deportation. Usually what hits the news is parents in trouble, not kids.
And what makes those cases heartbreaking is sometimes one or more members of the family ARE US citizens. Either they split up, and the kids are left alone in the US, or the cids are sent to a place they never knew for reasons they had nothing to do with.
This is an extremely active and evolving area of law and policy in the US.|||I was under the impression that the school couldn't even ASK a kid what his legal status was. It must be the pot in his bag, a crime, that made his status fair game. The behavior of the parents (short circuiting the immigrations process) has fallout for the kids. Report Abuse
|||I'm amazed at the hostility for "anchor babies" that many otherwise civil people feel. Many feel quite vulnerable and threatened. It might be that the illegal immigrant family is having the child just to take advantage, but that doesn't mean the child is less precious. Report Abuse
|||GOOD !
"Were the people generally law abiding"
No, they were here illegally, therefore everything they did here was illegal.|||Why is this any different? They were found out, & deported! That is the way it should happen! If they were in the process of becoming legal, I really don't think they would have just rounded them up & sent them packing! That at least shows intent. I think it is a good beginning...keep up the good work!|||Law abiding illegals?
Isn't that an oxymoron?
Law abiding illegal with an illegal drug in his back backpack?
Again isn't that an oxymoron?|||Illegals should go back home. If they cant enter and do everything by the books thats the way it should be.|||If the kid and his sibling were, in fact, U.S citizens, then they could not have been sent back. That said, it doesn't really matter how law abiding they may have appeared, they were in the country illegally, and that, in itself, is a crime.
I've been playing the Viola and Violin Since 1st grade. Once I got to high school i strayed away from it. Now I go to a school where Orchestra isn't offered. I love playing, and I miss it. My dream is to play in the TSO. What should I do to get there? How does one even get into a symphony orchestra? I realize I may not just "get in" I know it will take time and hard work.
Thanks. :)|||The Tuscon Symphony Orchestra is a professional orchestra in which members vie for positions and are salaried. At the present time, you are not prepared to audition for the orchestra let alone be a member. You need to start doing some serious practicing on your violin or viola on a daily basis and take private lessons if available in your area. It would be helpful to graduate from a reputable music school with a major in violin or viola. With that degree, you might be able to gain entrance into the orchestra, but competition will be stiff. There are more well qualified musicians than there are positions available in professional orchestras. Get started on that practicing and good luck.|||Play like you are good enough for the Berlin Philharmonic, then Tuscon might let you in.
... If the TSO is your goal, find a professional teacher who has the credentials and ability to get you there.

iv been driving an 06 tuscon for the past 4 years but totalled it this past weekend. how much different is the 2010 model?|||We just traded our 2006 Tuscon in for the new 2010 Tucson about three weeks ago now. Here is what I can tell you so far.
1. The new Tucson is much better on gas in the city, about the same on the highway driving.
2. The seats (unless you go with all leather seats) are ugly in the new Tucson. The fabric ones are the cheap hard canvass type fabric and the leatherette seats (which we opted for ) are butt ugly (pardon the pun). The seats were much better in the 2006 model.
3. The radio now comes with a jack to plug in a iPod or a USB music player (nice feature). Also, the new Tucson now comes with Bluetooth standard.
4. The brakes on the 2010 Tucson are very, very sensitive I find. You hardly have to touch the pedal to get good braking.
5. The power is better in the 2010 Tucson (more power off the line I find)
6. The 2006 Tuscon had better full fold down seats in the rear, the new rear seats in the 2010 model don't fold all the way down unfortunately.
7. The 2010 Tucson is roomier and not as cramped as the 2006 even though it is about 80 pounds lighter.
All in all, we are enjoying the 2010 Tucson. Excellent value for the money you pay for a small SUV, none can match that.|||There are no working parts shared between the two.
I'd like to know as soon as possible, since Christmas is coming soon and I need to earn money to get things for my family.|||Check with your school counselor... schools often have some sort of agreement with local businesses or private institutions that allow you to work part-time.... and this isn't your typical mall job...

I'm interested in knowing how others feel about it. I know I read that a group of people find the shooter a "hero"? Does anyone else out there see this murderer as a hero? Definitely not me. Let me know!|||Definitely no hero.
Personally I feel the most sorry for his parents. Even more so than the victims. Can you imagine what it would feel like to have your child do something like that? You would feel responsible. How would you ever get over the guilt?
As far as the kid himself, I think he was obviously very troubled, but in the society we live in when people are "different," people ignore them, call them "creepy," weird, or whatever and pretty much avoid them instead of seeing what's wrong with him. Maybe he just needed a friend but nobody would give him the chance. All of that anger and bitterness has to find an outlet eventually. We need some kind of support system for troubled people in this country. Somewhere to go if you feel isolated, alone, and have nobody to talk about your problems and can't afford therapy.|||The dude is definitely no hero. A big douche maybe.....
Agree with the above post. Feel VERY sorry for the parents. The whole situation is so sad. Our country has gotten so fanatical with politics and bipartisan differences in the last 10 years. It's crazy. Everyone is so opinionated with politics and is so hate filled. It's very sad|||A zionist stage show for gun ban.

Arizona Shooter and Giffords Belonged To Same Synagogue
http://www.originaldissent.com/node/880#鈥?/a>
Jared Loughner Is Jewish
But His Synagogue Congregation Chaverim and Rabbi Stephanie Aaron
And The Media Have Been Caught
Hiding This Fact Revealed By WhiteNewsNow
From Americans
This is an amazing story. We now learn that Jared Lee Loughner's mother Amy Loughner is a member of the SAME Reform synagogue as Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords! That means that Amy's son, who lives with his Jewish parents, Amy and Randy Loughner, is ALSO a member of the same synagogue as his shooting victim, Rep. Giffords.
Why didn't we hear about this from our super-sleuth national media?
Instead we hear that a White man is the shooter. We hear that anti-Semitism is his motive.
But now...now...some FACTS are leaking out!
His best friend, Bryce Tierney, who got a "farewell" voice message the night before the shootings tells us that his friend is Jewish. He tells us that Jared Loughner put Mein Kampf down as "favorite reading" to irritate his Jewish mother, Amy.
The story and the coverup of the story gets wilder. The Loughners and the Giffords were members of the same Congregation Chaverim. On the Congregation Chaverim website we learn that this Reform synagogue that was founded in 1973 has 140 families. That's a very small group. The Rabbi, Stephanie Aaron surely knows every single family member of her congregation on a first name basis! That includes 22-year-old Jared Lee Loughner.
So, it is IMPOSSIBLE that Rabbi Stephanie Aaron did not KNOW instantly upon learning that a Jared Lee Loughner had shot Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords that BOTH people were members of her small congregation!
But does Rabbi Aaron make ANY effort to inform the media, as she takes hundreds and hundreds of media calls from the mass media, of this fact?
Apparently not!

Here's something about the synagogue, from some synagogue website in AZ. (The Chaverim website is either down or overloaded):
Congregation Chaverim (Reform), 5901 E. 2nd St. Tucson, AZ 85711 Phone (520) 320-1015
Website: http://www.chaverim.net.
Congregation Chaverim is a Reform Jewish congregation in which each member is personally responsible for creating a dynamic congregational family experience that cultivates spirituality, education and traditions through active participation. One of our goals is to create an identification with Judaism through the participation of the entire family in a series of shared religious and educational experiences and to foster a creative and innovative religious atmosphere while preserving Jewish tradition and ethics.
Now, for the first time in our 30+ year history, Congregation Chaverim is permanently housed in our own synagogue building allowing Chaverim to better fulfill its mission as a full service Reform Congregation.
Shabbat Services and holiday celebrations as well as Children's and Adult Education programs are part of our caring environment that promotes our community spirit of worship, friendship, and social action. Affiliated with UAHC for more then 27 years.

Assuming the shooter acted alone, I am reminded of his right to reject treatment for his condition. This is so unfortunate as he put so many people at risk.|||Waiting to happen until guns are outlawed it will happen again.
Edit - At least it would be harder than going into a shop as if to buy a can of pop.|||Not a hero but a deluded nutcase.|||If it wasn't for Senator Giffords being injured.....the event would NOT have taken up so much 'air' time.

If not, why is the Governor of Arizona only going after Mexican illegals?|||No! that's the work of a White Anti-Government lunatic. But she's not worried about the homegrown terrorists.|||I am sure an illegal immigrant has walked up and killed, just like a white person, black person, muslim, jew, catholic, etc. Look at the number of multiple killings and you will be able to find that the murderer is of almost any race, religion or social class that you choose to dwell on. So many ridiculous statements in the new right now. You can take any situation and spin it in many different directions. Best wishes to all of the victims and families involved in this senseless tragedy!|||Yes, they have. Check out gangs like MS 13, one of the most violent gangs in the US and filled with mostly illegals from Mexico. There are plenty of gangs around the US that are filled with illegals, that killed people like this.|||Add up all those killed on 9/11, and all the Americans killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, and it is no where near the amount of US citizens killed by illegal aliens over the same time period.|||NEVER! I'm not saying illegals don't commit crime, but nothing like this.

They are incapable of reasonable, logical discourse and they feel no remorse for the consequences of their inflammatory rants.
Most people have the capacity for cognitive thought and dismiss their rants as just that - attention grabbing, but nothing by which to direct their daily lives and life choices. But, someone who is mentally disturbed is not capable of separating thoughtless, fact-less rants from the truth. Those mentally disturbed people might be inspired by the inflammatory rants to act on the subject of those rants.|||The issue isn't that such bloggers directly cause the killings.

I'm planning on going from Los Angeles to Tucson, AZ on Christmas either leaving in the morning or afternoon. I'm planning on taking the 10 east all the way but I know I can also take the 5 south to the 8 east. Which freeway would be best to go? I'd rather take the 10 since it's shorter but if the 5 to the 8 is faster I'd rather take that. And how would the traffic be?|||I take the I-8 west from Tucson every year for the holiday either on Christmas or on Christmas Eve. It is heavier than usual but not bumper to bumper or have too many slow downs. Having gone up to Phoenix on the holidays, the I-10 is horrible because there will inevitably be a half dozen slow downs because the two lane interstate can't accommodate the traffic between Casa Grande and Phoenix. Going through the actual city isn't usually as bad, but problems always come up when there are only 2 lanes and every needs to slow down to see an accident, a cop pulling over someone, etc. The I-8/I-10 between San Diego and Tucson is pretty clear except for the 2 border patrol checkpoints which will add about 5-10 minutes to the trip for each stop. I have family in San Diego who don't touch the I-5 north of Del Mar because the traffic is always hit or miss with me actually being stuck in a traffic jam one weekend there for 3 hours. The only experience I have with the I-10 between LA and Phoenix are non-holiday weekends in the early morning and never had a problem once I was 10-20 miles outside of the cities.
If I was in your position, I would leave as early as possible on the I-10 east until you hit Highway 85 near Buckeye then drive south to Gila Bend. After you are in Gila Bend, you just head east on the I-8 until you merge with the I-10 and get to Tucson. I would avoid Phoenix if you could. Highway 85 is a very well traveled road and most people use it to get between central Arizona and San Diego, but I never find it that congested. The key to all this is to leave early because traffic will only get worse as the day gets longer, and talking from a trip this Thanksgiving, a smooth drive at 9am will turn into an irritating afternoon of continuous speeding up and braking at noon.

If the Development Services Director should determine that the public health, safety and welfare will not be impaired by the erection, demolition, alteration or repair of any building within the hours specified herein, and if he shall further determine that loss or inconvenience would not result to any party in interest, he may grant permission for such work to be done at times other than specified herein, upon application being made at the time the permit for the work is awarded or during the progress of the work.

I'm looking for a good party atmosphere. Also, what time do they close. Thanks all.|||Of all the clubs in the city, the only really consistently good club for electronic music is Asylum on Congress St between 6th Ave and Scott. I love going there on Saturday because they play nothing but EBM, synthpop, futurepop, and a bit of industrial.

Sometimes, Heart-Five (http://www.heart-five.com/weekly_schedul鈥?/a> has some good stuff, but I generally can't take straight house or trance for too long. Every great once in awhile, there is a decent act or DJ at Club Congress or Sharks or Vaudeville Cabaret, but you really have to be on the lookout since it is a rare event. I would stick to Asylum for the harder stuff, and Heart-Five for the more mainstream and poppier electronic music.

Is it expensive for a college student first moving out on her own? What are some decent affordable places in Tucson? And what neighborhoods should I avoid? Any serious answers and help would be greatly appreciated! :)|||Avoid South Tucson. I personally won't live in a place that's South of Broadway. The Foothills is the nicest area of town, a bit far out, but where most of the rich people live. If you're just looking for an apartment, though, you can probably find something there that's not too badly priced.
I personally prefer to be closer to the central part of town, which to me feels more appropriate for younger people. The U of A is in the central part of town (just outside downtown) so that's where the hipper younger sort of businesses are, stores, restaurants, bars, clubs, whatever. I'm not a college student anymore, but I still live near the university. The Foothills are on the Eastside, so it's a bit more of family neighborhoods there.

The 805 merges with I-5 in Del Mar, and I take that all the way to Disneyland. Some of the stretches can be slow during rush hour, but I-5 is made for a high volume of traffic.

That bozo is easily spotted as a nut job but still Clinton makes it equal to terrorism from the Middle East - the local Sheriff blasts the Right and everyone with a political agenda in between is woofing it up to promote their private agenda. The man is obviously a MASS MURDERER motivated by voices and urges that are in not of this world - HE IS NOT A TERRORIST; at best he is a paranoid schizophrenic. Get real folks.|||It is being politicized because a member of congress was involved and prior to the shooting there was some pretty tough talk against that member of congress. Thus people leap to conclusions.
In addition, gun control laws are political issues, so people want to know why the republican lax gun control policy allowed a nut job to have a gun. Why didn't everyone at the rally have a gun and kill the guy before he got off a second shot?|||The left mistakenly believes that they can gain points by blaming this on conservatives. They think people will believe their lies and somehow that will translate into votes for their side. They also desperately want to shut down the most powerful voices of the opposition. They only believe in freedom of speech if it agrees with their political position. That sheriff has tainted the case and the jury pool with his opinions, and that, combined with his failure to protect the people who were killed and injured should cost him his job. A poll taken in the past couple of days shows that about 60% of the people of this country agree that this lunatic committed this crime because he's crazy, not because he listened to any conservative speech. I think that in the long run this whole thing will backfire on the people who have used this tragedy in an attempt to gain politically.|||It would not be politicized if the Congresswoman was a Republican. It would be considered the victim's fault.
Nobody talked about gun control after the Ft. Hood Massacre. We were barely even able to talk about the fact that the dude was a radical Islamic. But A Democrat gets shot, and it's automatically Rush Limbaugh's fault.

Theres alot of people who have joined and are stationed where they want to live is this really the case most of the time? What do you have to do to be able to be stationed in a particular city or state?|||My sister wanted to be in Ca and they sent her to NJ....where are you getting your facts? Maybe they just got lucky. Air Force sends you wherever they want, at least the Navy tries to work with you, talk to them.|||You have to do some time in the service before you can choose where you'd like to go. Also, if they disagree, you could be sent anywhere they desire. Be sure that you want to have that loss of control of your life before joining and good luck.|||Depends on what's in your contract. There's Air Force bases all over the place, because they're tiny. I know there's one in Phoenix, but the chances of getting a specific base are slim if that.|||The absolute "nuts and bolts" of your question is where does the Air Force need you to be. IF you have been trained in a career field that is used at the Air Base close to Tucson, then it is possible that they might send you there. The need of the Air Force comes first and your desires a distant last. With time in service, and knowing the right people in your career field with a service record that makes you stand out as exemplary, you might get the chance to be stationed there.|||You can request to be stationed there. However, it's pretty unlikely that you'll get it. Unless there's an open slot for your MOS there or something along that line. Pretty much everything depends upon your MOS; though USAF BMT is always at Lackland AFB.|||Davis-Monthan AFB is in Tucson, AZ. Website is below.
To be stationed at a base you must first have the AFSC rating needed at that base. (Does no good to be a qualified B1 mechanic if they do not have B1 Bombers at the base.) So first research the base and find out what kind of mission it has then try to get an AFSC that fits that mission.
If you already have skills they need, such as doctor or nurse and they have openings there, you can pretty much write your own ticket. They will agree to send you there for 3 years, then they send you where they want at the end of the 3 years.
But do not plan on "homesteading" at that base for any great length of time. Three years as about par, four years if you are lucky, but after that, expect to be shipped somewhere else.
I have never been to Tucson and don't know anyone living there so I really don't know what to expect. I am looking to rent a house and am still job hunting online but am not having much luck with either.
I would greatly appreciate anything anyone can tell me about Tucson, the good and the bad.|||I live in Tucson and moved here from Chicago 3 years ago.
Cost of living is alot cheaper than what I had been used to but, so is the pay. ( it evens itself out ). I love living here because of the weather and scenery. Lots of decent apartments complexes and alot of homes available for rent. I first lived in the Catalina Foothills ( NE side ) which is considered to be the wealthy side of town. Not much crime there. I now live in Rita Ranch which is the SE side, also very nice. More of a small family orientated community. The south side of town would be considered the worst side of town. But, there are other areas that are no so nice either. You'll figure it out when you get here. There are alot of homeless people here ( due to the weather ) and there is a meth problem. But, if you stay in a decent area, it won't affect you. There is a Air Force base here, so lots of Military. There also is The University of Arizona. Not alot of nightlife unless you go downtown or by the University. Cool shops on Fourth St. ( Hippie-ish ) Lots of great restaurants all over. Especially if you like Mexican food. Mexico is only 1 hour away for Shopping. You can get great deals there. Mt Lemmon is a great scenic place to go. They have a ski area there ( when we have snow ) It's open right now. Hot and Dry in the summer, I love it ! Monsoon season is from July to August. A littler more humid and rain storms. When it rains here, it rains hard and there is flooding. But, it goes away quickly. Driving here is not bad. There are some congested areas and everyone speeds. If your not flooring your car, you better get out of the way. In the winter months, the snowbirds come. ( retired old people, coming from cold states ) They leave aroud March. Easy to meet people, people are freindly here. I love living here and I hope you will too !|||Tucson is great, but the traffic SUCKS! They never put in a freeway system, so everything off I-10 (which curves around the city) is surface streets. Depending on where you find a job, there are really great places to live. You'll find houses for rent all over, but the nicer ones will be in or around Rita Ranch. They are newer with new ones being built everyday, and there is always a lot for rent out there. If you work up north, live there. The northside is also very nice. It has tended to be the ritzier area of Tucson, so expect rent to be priced according to that. Tucson is in a valley, so it's surrounded by mountains. Mount Lemmon is close with recreation on it, but I can't really think of anything else. It is very dry and hot, with lots of desert landscaping. Don't go if you can't stand the thought of never seeing grass again. Overall, I really loved living in Tucson. I was a student at the time, so my perpective is a little skewed, but we still visit my in-laws there.|||Stay away from the south side.|||Why are you moving to Tucson? Unless you have a job at Raytheon, you will be flipping burgers, that is if you can beat a Mexican out with you superior qualifications, the unemployment rate is through the roof, it is a VERY difficult area to make a living. Hope you speak Spanish, you have to to get a job.|||First off, Welcome to Tucson!! (or soon to be) I grew up on the East side of Tucson, I love that area. It's far enough out of central Tucson so there's not all that high traffic of people.
I would learn to have lots of patience with the drivers. It can sometimes get frustrating, especially if you are used to a fast paced environment. The speed limits are lower than normal, at least compared to Phoenix. Where are you coming from?
A couple things I suggest doing.. when and if Mt. Lemmon gets snow on it this year, go take a day to enjoy the scenery. It's so beautiful up there, any time of the year. Take a peak at Colossal Cave too. I'll put their link below for you to read about it.
One thing that is hard to find and that's a good mechanic. The place I trust to take my car to get worked on is Brake Max on Swan and Camp Lowell. Ask for Bud.. very nice guy. 520-318-4000. I actually live in Scottsdale now and I still drive to Tucson to get my car fixed.
Oh and I cannot forget about Eegee's. It's a tradition that every time I come to town, I have to get an Eegee. Pina Colada is my favorite. It's hard to describe what exactly an eegee is.. it's like an shaved ice drink.. but better!
There isn't a whole lot that happens in Tucson. I guess it also depends on how you look at it... you might like a more quiet city. Oh and I don't know why.. but the hip thing to do is cruise Speedway and hang out by your car.. don't know why but I guess that's how people occupy their time.
Anyway good luck with the job hunting!|||go to south side an mix wit dem gangstas, then u get backup in case some weirdos give u a hard time
My school has some and i want to plant them at home. give me good links!|||Here is a list of nurseries in your area where you could buy some.

The guy was just bat**** insane, nothing else. He was an evil man who killed a little girl, nothing more, nothing less. It doesn't matter if he was left or right, he was just a rotten human being. I don't believe in torture, but I'd make a special case for this guy. Ship him off to Guantanamo.|||Any one with a conscience.|||But there was more to it than him just being insane. You can't just say "nothing else". There was a motive behind it, he didn't just randomly kill a politician simply because he was crazy. He probably is crazy, but that wasn't his motive for doing it. His motive for doing it is very relevant to why it occurred. I'm sick of people trying to brush a political shooting under the rug and lump it together with random spree killings like it's another Andrew Cunanan.|||I find myself agreeing with you in that, not much mention is being made of the Innocent that was killed in the crazies shooting spree. The fact that the judge was killed and other at the scene were killed and injured there is still very little mention being made of a young child at the beginning of her life that's no longer with us. There is and should not be any politicization of this incident, there was a child killed and no one should forget it!|||I am sick of it. Ya the guy was just insane i don't even think he conforms to any modern day political party but idiots try to further their agendas by blaming the other side. Crazy though that they don't even care about the fact 6 people got killed. My condolences go out to those families.|||I know. After Glenn Beck said that we needed armed revolution to stop the communists and Sharon Angle said that we needed "Second Amendment Solutions" and Perry in Texas called for armed revolution if the Republicans didn't win the Senate and Sarah Palin Created a hit list of 19 traitors - why are the liberals claiming that somehow Conservatives are to blame?|||I was sick of it when I saw all the liberals blaming it on Sarah Palin and asserting that the shooter is a Tea Partier.
This is exactly like Joe Stack all over again. They all said he was a Tea Partier, too.
Some still do.|||Me! Me!
Hi, namesake
I'm going to tell everyone of these people that they are trolls. Conservative and liberal demagogue alike, they need to be called trolls over and over again. Ugly, hideous trolls.|||Yes, right? There are peaceful demonstrations of political beliefs every day and they get no time in the news. Now this crap happens and everyone wants to blame everyone. I've seen no one support this guys cause what so ever at this point.|||Why would you make a special case of this guy. Thousands of people are murdered every day and you don't see the government do anything more than try and take your ability to defend yourself away.|||I am
It looks like Conservatives are trying awfully hard to convince Y/A posters that he was a Liberal.
It looks like he was just deranged with Libertarian leanings.|||He was a lone nut case, nothing political about it. I bet he would have done this if the congresswoman was there or not.|||Um.......
A US Representative was shot today and nearly killed. Isn't that political enough for you?|||Wrong he was incited by far left propaganda...|||Not me.
Liberals must be stopped from using this tragedy as a way to advance their politics.|||Where were you when the Cons went nuts over the Discovery Channel bomber?|||I agree.|||I agree, except for the GITMO part.
It's getting a bit worm to walk the dogs through the neighborhood and I am wondering if anyone knows of some nice shady trails or parks that are dog friendly. They will be on leashes so that is not an issue. It would preferably be something in or near Oro Valley. Thanks|||I remember when that was the outskirts of town.....now it's kinda like a major metropolis! There's a trail up to Finger rock...but it's a little rugged. I would suggest going around the end toward peppersauce cave...but it's probably a booming city by now.|||i love walking through Sedona! its amazing and its in a canyon so its shadey and very beautiful. Of course thats really far so maybe just google it. Is there a forest in neer tucson? I live in flagstaff so i just walk through the forest|||I also live in Arizona, and it's hard to find a place to walk your dog during the summer. I suggest you walk your dog very early in the morning or the evening. i walk my grown dog in the evenings, when is not to hot. i take her to the park.
I am trying to find a last minute way, train or bus probably, to get to Tucson from Durango without spending too much money. There is no amtrak station in durango and they greyhound took over a day and cost $ 500 . any suggestions?|||Check Craigslist Rideshare. Usually people split the gas.

I am feeling very lonely right now. Does anyone know where I could go to buy sex from an attractive prostitute and how much it would cost?|||You would most likely find her walking the street or on her back or knees.|||Tucson I don't know but just to give you a perspective, you can get a woman here in the Orlando market for $ 25 - 30 and a guy for $ 20 - 25. Be careful about undercover cops though - if it's a guy hustler you usually pick him up when he is (supposedly) hitching a ride, but before saying anything about money, ask him to prove he is not a cop by unzipping himself and letting you touch his unit. If he turns out to be the filth, he will always refuse because then it is entrapment, and the case gets thrown out of court (if the a***hole has the shamelessness to proceed in the first place). Women, I don't know since I have never been with one (and I am 41 years old). I just know the going rate by asking my str8 guy friends as I tend to be curious.

I'm a die-hard White Sox fan and i can't seem to find any clothes to show my pride for my team. All the stores in Tucson only sell Arizona baseball shirts. Any suggestions on where to go?|||Use your search engine and type in CWS shirts and follow the links.
It shouldn't be too difficult to find a store in Tucson using Yahoo or Google.|||First off, thanks for representing the Chicago White Sox down in Arizona. 2010 will be special.
mlb.com has a great shop, although it can be a bit pricey with shipping. However, I have heard that the new facility in Glendale is nice and when I went to ST games a couple years back, they had team shops there.
Otherwise, that's all I can help you with. Sox Pride!
We just moved to the area and we have a small child. I've heard stories of snakes and scorpions getting into the house. I was wanting to know of any things I can do to prevent this from happening and the likelihood of it happening. Please only people who are familiar with the area answer. And serious answers only! Thanks!|||The only thing you have to worry about inside a home is scorpions. Rattlesnakes will almost always warn you before they strike, and I've never heard of rattlers getting into homes. Scorpions can be a problem because you may not even see them before you step on them. There are also gila monsters, but I've only seen one in my life.|||Throughout most of the city, your only real trouble would be bark scorpions. It's an unfortunate coincidence that the only local scorpion capable of climbing walls is also the most venomous, especially to young kids. Rattlesnakes would be around the edges of town as well. In both instances, keep your yard free of debris and avoid areas of standing water. A leaky drip system is a great place for scorpions, black widows, and all associated prey (an even bigger draw). If you do see a bark scorpion, it might be good to just call an exterminator.
If you do live near the edge of town, get ahold of me on the referring site and I can tell you all you need to know about your local snakes, how to avoid them, and anything else you need to know. I do capture/relocation work in Phoenix, and frequent the Tucson area to find wild snakes.|||The only bad critters are the ones who come from Ca wanting to take Arizona down the tubes like they did the state that they came from|||They aren't that bad. You just need to keep an eye on your child. Maybe get some scorpion repellant.
if u drive without having a drivers license but have a permit and not taken the test yet but you can what happens if you get caught?|||A pretty hefty fine, 2 points, possible revocation of your permit (if under 18 you run the risk of being unable to get your license back until age 18 or 21- depending on which age AZ uses)|||With out a licensed adult of the proper age? You find out what times the buss runs for the next few years as well as paying some hefty fines, towing fees and storage fees for a month

The college where it was memorial was staged, there were free T shirts over the back of each chair, what did the T shirts say?|||The tee-shirts proclaimed the banal message of "Together We Thrive" like some cheap kumbaya Ripple wine inspiration. The political theater of what was supposed to be a memorial to people who had died was a ghastly specter throwing a circus-like atmosphere over the whole thing.|||Did you ever see anything like it ??? Applause, cheers and even whistling, and instead of asking the crowd to "cool it,show some respect 'Obama went right into campaign mode ,the t-shirts were a disgrace ,and Obie should have insisted they be put away.All that ceremony needed was Sasha and Malia selling popcorn and lemonade...I would have gotten up and walked out of that Obama rally !!!!|||That is weird! When was the last time you attended a memorial service and got a free t-shirt? Together we Thrive? I saw a post with a picture of each of the 6 people who were killed, it said 'Together we died' Isn't that more appropriate? What kind of people make a souvenir for a memoral service?|||It hardly matters.. at his little memorial/pep rally there should have been no t shirts or cheering or political talk.
Barry cannot resist a crowd tho.. and his pretence of feeling bad was laughable.
T shirts should have said " Kiss my A ss, America.. I intend to screw you so bad"|||The shirts were designed, ordered, paid for, and distributed by the University of Arizona. The White House has nothing to do with it.|||Wow! Obama even has his minions at University of Arizona brass, ever ready to pounce on any campaign or campaign-related opportunity.

I have a parking ticket in Tucson AZ but my car only has dealer plates on it. on my ticket they still put in a number in the licence plate section? and they put down the vin. if they only have the vin number could i still get charged fyi. the car is from a wholesale auction and is on its 3rd owner and origionated in Jersey so it has a mixed record thanks.|||The dealer plate can not be traced back to a specific person. The VIN can, which is why they used it instead.
The VIN can easily be traced back to the dealer. When the dealer sees the time, date, and vehicle information, he can identify you as the driver. By that time, the cost of the ticket will be at least double.|||"only have the vin"??? That number is better than *any* license plate number could *ever* hope to be. And that number *never* changes, and will show each and every owner and owners to be. Yes, you can, and WILL, be charged.
We've never been there. We like quiet, not too much traffic, nice but not 'upscale.
Thanks for your input.|||I would suggest the outter areas, specifically Northwest, North, Northeast and East.

I am driving up to Oak Harbor in December (around the 20th) from Tucson Arizona. I want to take the safest route possible...one where we will avoid bad weather that would make driving hazardous. I am driving a 1990 cadillac up there...It's not the most reliable car.|||best route to take would be I-10 to LA and then I-5 north from there. you will only have one big mountain pass to go over (siskyou pass) at the the CA OR state line. If you don't trust your car to go that far I WOULD FLY! however if you drive please take along a survival kit. you will need some high cal foods, candles, blankets, water, flashlight, cell phone with charger, extra clothes, and a deck of cards. These items will help you survive if you get stuck in a storm. Make sure you have good tires on your car. Normally i would recommend chains, but since you are from AZ i would recommend this - if you have to chain up - hole up. it would be better for you to spend the night somewhere than risk it driving through a storm.

i live in tucson and me and my friends want to get out tongues pierced but niether my mom or their moms let us until we are 18 and i dnt wanna wait that long soo plz help!!!!|||The only reason you would ever need to get a tongue pierced is if you are a hooker and your pimp required it for your job.
They are dangerous and tacky. Dangerous because of the risk of infection, aspiration ( getting the metal in your lungs), they will cause the enamel to chip off your teeth and your teeth will decay, necessitating fillings or crowns on most of your teeth.
They are tacky because they announce to anyone you talk to that you are more concerned with giving men pleasure during oral sex than respecting yourself. You can not speak without it clicking against your teeth and you will lisp and sound like you are wearing dentures.
And lastly, tongue piercing hurts like hell! The tongue has more nerve endings per square millimeter than anyplace in your body.
If you found a place that would even do it without parental permission you shouldn't trust them. They are likely to use unsterile conditions, not treat you if complications arise and not carry liability insurance if you lose your tongue.|||Well then if you are not 18, you shouldn't have that account now should you?

One thing about gas mileage. No matter what car you drive, you have to be easy on the accelerator to keep fuel economy. Even if you drive a really small fuel efficient car, you can make it burn gas like crazy if you hit the accelerator hard when coming off a stop or going up a hill, etc.

Just when you thought he couldnt get any more disgusting he gives a campaign rally speech at this memorial. I just dont see any hope for this ego maniac do you?|||For one thing if anyone watched the news they would know that the University chose where to have the event and it was also the University who invited President Obama to be the main speaker. If you really watched it you would know that they cheered for every single person who spoke both republican and democrat speakers were a part of the service and they all received cheers.
It is really sad when people cannot even pause for a moment to see how bad we all need to respect and love each other more. So many people are trying to turn a beautiful speech full and hope and memories of the fallen into a campaign rally speech when there was nothing that could even be compared to a campaign rally speech. People like that clearly do not have any respect for the fallen because that speech was about them and hope for the American people to come together so that by appreciating and loving each other more we can avoid tragedies like this in the future.
You cannot control a crowd of people who want to celebrate the lives of lost members of their community.

TMC is one of the best prenatal hospitals in Tucson and I don't understand why no doctor will attempt VBACS. A c/s is just as risky (in other ways of course) as a VBAC. Does anyone knoe if a doctor in Tucson will do VBACS and does anyone in Tucson have some success stories for me to lift my spirits?|||Find a midwife!!
You can find both CNM (Certified Nurse-Midwives) and CPM (Certified Professional Midwives) in your area if you cannot find a doctor that does VBAC. There are certain hospital systems that don't "allow" VBACs based on their profit margins alone. A repeat C-section gives them at least $10,000 more in revenue than a VBAC...not to mention that scheduled C-section babies have a higher rate of a NICU admission (more money). They are the ones dictating what the docs can and cannot do. As far as the safety... the Mayo Clinic encourages VBAC and if the foremost medical facility in North America is saying it's okay- well then, case closed on safety!! Some smaller hospitals say they aren't able to do VBACs because they can't do a stat C-section quickly enough should a complication arise...well, maybe they shouldn't be doing OB if they can't get a stat section together quick enough!
Find a local chater of ICAN and see who they recommend!
Best wishes!|||I think your doctor is a liar!!! A lot of doctors encourage VBACs. I'd call around and do my own investigating.|||The reaosn they don't do it, is becaues their malpractice insurance doesn't cover it. There are several states that don't preform them ANYWHERE. In Oklahoma, only 1 hospital does them, which is luckily where I'm able to go, but bottom line is...if there isn't a doctor that will do them, there isn't a doctor that will do them. It isn't just the doctor, it is the hospital you go to, a lot of doctors say you're a good candidate, BUT there isn't anywhere that will let THEM do it. You need to call aroudn yourself to all the hospitals within a reasonable distance, because your doctor might not be pro VBAC and is just telling your BS. See what they say. I'm pro VBAC and definitely would be crushed if I coudln't have one, but I also wouldn't go to a midwife or a birthing center in fear of complications (60% of VBAC attempts end in emergency C-sections, I'd like to be near a hospital if that happens).|||Look for a Certified Nurse Midwife who is in practice with physicians (as back up).
I would also like to point out that in no way do you have to consent to a c-section. You can just choose not to schedule the surgery and wait for labor to start. Your doctor / hospital will have no choice but to deliver you. Their liability / insurance means nothing as long as they document that you did not consent to surgery.|||Oh Lord help you! Your doctor IS a liar. OK, maybe that's a bit harsh, but still.
I would get on some message boards, put the word out and call a midwife to see if you can get some support. It is possible, as you know. Even if you have to drive a distance - if it's worth it to you, do it. I had one in 2006 and it was the best experience ever.

For school reasons, I might get transferred there latter on, but if I can't immediately get a job, how much would I get from unemployment? I figured if I find out now, I can start saving appropriately for a rainy day....
Also about how long would it take before receiving the first check?|||If you are transferring from another state you will not be eligible to collect unemployment from Arizona. You are required to work for a certain amount of time in order to qualify for unemployment. You do not qualify if you quit your job or are fired for poor behavior.
Your eligibility for Arizona unemployment benefits is based upon wages earned in the Arizona base period from employers who were required to pay Arizona unemployment insurance tax on your wages.
You are only eligible to receive unemployment benefits from the State of Arizona for wages earned in Arizona. The minimum is $60 per week and the maximum is $240 per week (2008).
For most people, the base period will be the first four of the last five completed calendar quarters prior to the date you first applied for unemployment insurance. Huh? Let me explain.
Let's say you file for unemployment in July. The last five completed calendar quarters before July begins on April 1 of the previous year. How did I get that? Well, the first complete calendar quarter before any day in July is the quarter beginning April 1 and ending June 30. That's the fifth quarter. A year before that quarter, April 1 through June 30th, of the previous year, makes it five complete quarters prior to your filing date. Your benefit will be based on your income during your base period, which, in this example, is the year beginning that previous April 1 and ending on the March 31st.
To qualify for benefits, you must have been paid wages by an insured employer and meet one of the following requirements:
a. You must have earned at least $1,500 in one of the four quarters of the base period, and your total base period wages must be at least 1-1/2 times your high quarter (2007).
OR
b. You must have earned at least $7000 in total wages in at least two quarters of the base period, with wages in one quarter equal to $5,987.50 or more (2008). You may receive unemployment payments until you have been paid one-third of your total base period wages. However, you can only receive a total of 26 times your weekly benefit amount.|||typically you can not collect unemployment unless you were let go. so you would have to be let go from your job. not quit.
i would assume the rate would depend on how much you worked and how much you made. and i bet the payments would be much less than what you made. you should be able to go online and look up approximately how much you might get back. your state should have a workers compensation page.
What areas would be good to live in where you can find a lot of conveniences clustered together like fast food, grocery, department stores? Basically where you can see the light and not even think you are living on a desert.|||No! I think Phoenix is a lot nicer then Tucson. If you want an area that makes you forget that you are in the desert, Tucson only has a few. North Central Phoenix always makes me forget I'm in the desert, and so does the Arrowhead area in Glendale. The East Valley has a lot of little communities to. Tucson is so dry looking compared to Phoenix because there are more water restrictions there. Phoenix has so many new communities, and with new communities come the Shops and restaurants. I hardly ever have to leave the North West Valley because I have everything I need there.|||Thanks! I don't know where you are from, but in Phoenix you have the international airport, so when you get home sick, it's easy and cheap to hop on a plane an fly home for a weekend, well, at least for right now. With fuel prices, who knows now. Good luck on your decision. Report Abuse
|||Tucson has everything that Phoenix has, except a lot smaller in size and population and certainly a lot less of the fast food places, department stores and groceries, etc.
Tucson is overall a nicer place to live than Phoenix as it is smaller, requires less time commuting (but has a lot fewer jobs), much of the city is spread out and in sight of the desert which what the people want. Whereas Phoenix is a city with little view of the desert until you get out of the city.
Tucson, pardon the pun, is a city with a light restriction in effect at night to keep the telescopes in the mountains from getting light polluted. So the skies in Tucson are a lot darker from an airplane that Phoenix would be.

It is a) politicians, who see everything as an opportunity to get their message out, and b) young people, who see every gathering as an opportunity to vocally protest/support something.
Democrats have a slight edge on the protests because they, by definition, want more things to change and so they protest and demonstrate more, but it's not primarily a party issue as much as it is an issue of grandstanding politicians on both sides of the aisle playing to their bases, and immature voters who are not settled into a responsible place in their political discourse yet.|||The left loves tragedy like this and will exploit it for all it's worth.|||Republicans would be attacking Obama if he did not hold a Memorial.

But, watch for the ones that are just green broke. If you aren't good at training, they may be very nice ponies but might not be good for all-around riding. If you are just looking for a pony to lead the kids around on, then any of those might work. For general riding, pick a pony that is large enough for an adult to get on and remind of manners, or pick a small, well-broke horse who already knows what he needs to know. These are sometimes called "babysitters", because they will ride with anyone on them, and will actually be cautious of how they go, for the rider's sake.
You can also go to www.dreamhorse.com. If you know any horse people, bring them along with you to see any horse or pony. You just never know what you are going to get, if you don't know horses, from lameness issues to behavior issues, and some people will drug the horse before the person comes to see it.

I'm having an arguement, and i think that Flagstaff would be more fun than Tucson, for a day trip. (I live in Phoenix). Are there fall colors right now in Flagstaff?|||If you live in Phoenix, I definitely think you should go to Flagstaff. It is in the mountains and would be a nice change from where you are. Going to Tuscon, another desert city, wouldn't feel as much like you actually went somewhere else. Besides, Flagstaff is just a beautiful city with a unique personality. I almost went to college there and I kinda wish I had. I'm not there right now but I'd guess that there's not many Fall colors there quite yet; I'm at about the same Latitude and there's none here yet. Give it just a couple more weeks though and there will be.|||Take 2 days. Go north on Day 1. Go to Tucson on Day 2. See Sabino Canyon, go up on Mt Lemmon, visit the mission, visit the National Park and the other stuff that's been mentioned. Oops - you'll need 2 days in Tucson.
But if you really want something off the main roads (and crowds), drive up to Tonto Natural Bridge State Park for a day. It's near Payson, and is quiet and beautiful and less crowded. A very nice drive up Hwy 87 from Phoenix.|||Flagstaff, yes there are some fall colors.|||Flagstaff!!!! good shoping too downtown a lot to look at, and eat at...and couple of brewerys too.. time to think of christmas presents?|||Flagstaff, it is cleaner, more to do, and the leaves have changed, so its beautiful, and the drive to Flag is more scenic than the drive to Tucson.|||Neither.
Go sedona, that is best for one day trip.|||Weather.com has a fall-colors map. I prefer oak-creek and sedona for the fall leaves. The leaves are changing in flagstaff, not in tucson.

Theres lots to do in phoenix too.
I think that up north is cooler, and has more fun stuff.|||I'd go with Flagstaff. Flagstaff is very different from Phoenix, in terms of the weather and scenery, and you can even stop by Sedona on the way. There are fall colors, although the colors up in Flagstaff aren't as spectacular as those, say, in the northeast.

i plan on going to phoenix az to buy a car from private owner can i drive car back to tucson with no insuranse?|||Not legally you can't.|||I don't think it would be a good risk, but you might check with a dealer to be sure. If you already have insurance it can be transferred. You don't want to get stopped for any reason without insurance. One accident with no coverage can cost you a lot more than it would be worth in the long run- even if someone told you it would be o.k.|||If the "new" car replaces a car already insured, or is an addition to a current policy, it's automatically insured for at least 30 days, but be sure to report it to your agent/company ASAP so you don't forget it. If it's not one of the above, you need to put insurance on it before you drive it home.|||And just who pays for the loss if you have an accident? Of course not, driving without insurance is always just that, driving without insurance. If you have an insured car now, talk to your broker about coverage on a newly-acquired vehicle. If you don't have a car now, talk to a broker about a new policy for your new vehicle.

In Tucson, I received a red light ticket and paid for traffic school. I did not finish and now I have to go to Sentence Enforcement Court or pay $400.|||Where is the question? This is not a forum to post your rants.|||That sounds right. Arizona is doing sweeps of all unresolved traffic complaints in order to raise revenue. My son found out the hard way he didn't pay a ticket he thought he paid last year. Just to punctuate it his license was suspended - he received a warning he had something like 5 days to contact the court or his license would be suspended, and a notice of suspension... both dated the same day! That was how he found out about the problem.
Do the Sentence Enforcement Court. They are looking for money but don't want to overplay their hand - you will probably get a more reasonable deal in court. My son only had to pay something like $80 more than the original ticket (including the fee to get his license re-instated) to get back into the sunlight again.|||Good for you.

None of these will provide you with anything substantial.
Every time an event occurs, liberals go straight into left-wing ideology instead of actually addressing the problem. Tucson is a prime example.
A logical person would have concluded:
That the shooter was very disturbed
Had many run-ins with authorities
Had many complaints and discussions about his instability
Therefore, we need to strengthen our laws to get the insane of the streets.
But what did liberals actually do?
They used the tragedy to launch false attacks on their political enemies, and when that didn't work, they attacked the 2nd Amendment.
Are liberals that out of touch with reality, or are they just complete frauds?|||In my opinion if they did address the real problem which is mental health half would themselves be committed and not just to left wing ideals but to a place where needs are issued, it is a fact that 1/4 of all college students are taking anti depressants (NBC reported that one)|||OMG, are you actually suggesting that the government provide this disturbed individual with mental health care? Who pays for that...the taxpayers?
Or are you saying they should just strip the insane of their rights, and throw them all into jail/sanitarium?
Some of us liberals do admit the dude was a psychopath, which is why he should NEVER have been permitted to purchase a weapon. Why are conservatives blocking additional regulations that would close loopholes which currently allow insane people to buy/own weapons?|||Oh, so the problem with the Tuscon killings is that we don't lock up enough people in the insane asylum.
Thanks for clearing that up, because I thought the problem was that kids, judges and politicians were being shot with metal slugs speeding from the barrels of easily obtainable and concealable firearms.|||Actually, what I saw on this site was exactly the opposite. It was the Rightwingers bustin' a gut trying to blame it on the left. How could you possibly have missed that guy who posted the same links over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over... for DAYS.... trying to link the shooter to "the left?"|||The first heard about this the conservatives were yelling about how this was going to turn out to be an illegal alien.
What did happen though is that people suddenly became outspoken about their disgust with the nastiness of the political system.
And then, the first thing that happens is that Palin the right wing darling, issues an "Its not my fault' eight minute facebook speech. Instead of trying to draw the country together she's out there claiming 'they' are out to put a blood libel on her.
If you have forgotten all that in just a few weeks maybe you are out of touch with reality, or just a complete fraud.|||What part of republicans using violent metaphors is a false attack?
Regardless of whether the rhetoric is linked to Tucson, it is still real and still irresponsible.
THAT is a real problem.
And yes, the shooter is another problem.
This isn't new to liberals.|||Liberals have the general idea that things that happen to people have nothing to do with personal choice and responsibility, but due to society, so it makes perfect sense that they attack the other side of the aisle, because it furthers their political stances.|||er... I've seen many more liberals than cons taking the approach you mention?
wasn't it Reagan who put all the crazies on the streets because "he didn't want the gubamint paying for it"?
all I see cons doing is saying "eh, it happens, so what, move on"|||You seem to be assuming that liberals are for gun control when most of us actually aren't. Just out of curiosity, are you able to function without making stereotypes? Because I don't see that you are.|||are you that out of touch with reality to believe that only liberals and all liberals acted in the manner you described in your question?|||You don't believe that we should toughen laws to keep the mentally ill from being able to buy guns? And you say liberals are out of touch with reality!|||yes,yes|||Liberals want to end our freedoms, like the Muslims|||The libs are half right on this issue. While blaming Palin and other political figureheads for the tragedy is ridiculous, there's a valid point in the Second Amendment arguments.
Although I'm fairly liberal, I'm a responsible gun owner and a Second Amendment rights supporter. I will say, however, that it is way too easy to acquire a gun in this country, and the requirements for continued gun ownership are pretty weak.
I live in Texas, and here there is no such thing as gun registration. That's right. I go to a gun shop, fill out the paperwork just the same as anywhere else, and ten minutes later I have my gun. No problem so far. After that, I'm allowed to do almost anything with the gun that I want. I can walk a block down the street and give a loaded handgun to a homeless man I've never met before--legally. It's *recommended* that I get something in writing saying that he now has ownership of the gun, in case it were later to be used in a crime. I'm in no way required to check his credentials, verify that he has no felonies or domestic assault convictions, or even know whether or not he is a legal citizen of the United States. I need no FFL license, and no records need be submitted to the state or federal government.
For another example from my home state, Texas's "castle doctrine" allows a person to defend his or her home as they see fit. Guns are not required to be locked up or kept unloaded, which leaves the decision on how arms are stored and accessed up to the owner--as it should be. This does, however, leave a significant window of opportunity for children and unauthorized persons to access a loaded weapon and cause real injury to themselves or others, which does occasionally happen. There are penalties in place for such negligence, and for the most part, gun owners are responsible enough to prevent such tragedies. However, the castle doctrine extends the definition of "the home" to include a person's private vehicle. As a Texan, I may keep any number of loaded firearms at the ready in my vehicle. The only stipulation is that they may not be stored in plain view while the vehicle is unoccupied in order to deter theft. I may choose to keep a fully loaded pistol next to my driver's seat with the safety disengaged, if I so choose. While I consider myself a reasonable and nonviolent person, I cannot tell you that there has never been an instance where I would have brandished a firearm during a fit of rage or trepidation. While I know this about myself, and therefore do not travel with an accessible weapon, many residents disregard such precautions. I have personally seen guns brandished a number of times during the course of normal driving, and if I were the intended target, I would arm myself in defense without a second thought. This, of course, would drastically increase the likelihood that I would be shot at, or that I would shoot at someone else. The result could be something as simple as moving through a stop sign out-of-turn escalating into a gunfight. Indeed, such occurrences are not unheard of.
These laws are a little out-of-hand, I think. Based on your logical person's perspective, that person should have brought up Second Amendment issues after their conclusion, which you call "strengthening our laws."
Loughner obtained his gun legally, and did so with the list of black marks against him that you recited. There are two legal solutions: First, tighten the laws concerning gun control. Currently, you must have already committed a crime in order to be rendered unable to buy a gun. I think you see where a problem may arise there, although the counter-argument is that gun ownership is a right, and should therefore be free of prior legal restraints. Or second, round up any people who appear to be "disturbed" and get them off the streets, as you said. In either case, some personal freedoms must be infringed upon. Either citizens will need to pass some series of tests or training prior to owning a gun, or citizens with even an outside chance of violent behavior will need to be rounded up and confined. If psychology could yield 100% accuracy on who would commit a gun-related crime and who would not, the choice would be simple. However, there is a significant margin of error, so the reasonable solution seems to be tighter gun control laws, rather than confining thousands of people who in many instances pose no significant threat.
There's plenty of room to debate that my gun ownership rights shouldn't be infringed by other people's mental illnesses, and that's a valid argument. However, I'm willing to jump through a hoop or two to allow people who don't present a clear threat to society to live freely.
Getting back to your original argument, it's a shame that liberals took the opportunistic approach and made cheap, unfounded shots at political rivals during a time of tragedy. The arguments for stricter gun controls are entirely appropriate, though.|||They did all they could to MAKE IT HAPPEN, what more do you want?
> The elected Democrats responsible for getting the shooter into the system KNEW he was very disturbed and repeatedly CHOSE to cast-aside the law to PREVENT anything being done about it.
> The law REQUIRED these elected Democrats to AT MINIMUM report him into NICS which would have balked his gun-purchase but they REPEATEDLY broke the law to ensure he could easily buy a gun with money THEY GAVE him.
> He had many run-ins with elected Democrat authorities who LIED to people reporting him so THEY wouldn't pursue it further. This specifically includes Giffords. She was told by local elected Democrats that Loughner was being handled even though THEY PERSONALLY WERE PREVENTING IT. No doubt the last thing to go through her mind (before the bullet) was shock to see a guy local elected Democrats dishonestly told her was in custody right there pointing a gun at her.|||But what did liberals actually do? The things you mention and when they can get away with it they place even more restrictions on law abiding citizens.

"I did know him & as stunned & horrified as anyone else. The Jared I knew, want like this. All about peace."

Whats the weather like, the jobs. How expensive is it to live out there. What type of work is Arizona know for (ex. Michigan known for makin cars) What are the wages like? I am thinking about moving to the west coast from the midwest. Arizona seems close to all the good states. Also how expensive is college out there for out of state students. I want to use my GI BILL.|||Flagstaff is a small college city w/too many people, cool w/pine trees. It doesn't snow like it used to. Living conditions are great if you have the money. Very expensive tourist town. Lots of gas stations and motels. Phoenix is hot desert, can be affordable. AZ has mining, electronics, military. Wages are bad in Flagstaff, better in Phoenix. Most don't want to live in Phoenix, rather in Tempe, Mesa, surrounding areas. Lots of people moving to Tucson, smaller than Phoenix. College is expensive, I know of more people dropping out, transferring to schools like University of Phx. Link below has lots of data. Good luck..|||I've been out here for 5 years, so hopefully I can help. The winters have been getting really cold the last 2 years (30's-40's) during the day. Still not as bad as most places though. The summers average about 110 degrees. It's not too bad unless there's humidity which happens a lot due to the Monsoons (just regular thunderstorms, and dust storms). When it does rain we usually get no more than 2 inches, but it tends to flood areas due to the way the roads are built. You may have to take a day off of work because of flooding, but at the same time, you don't have snow to deal with (unless you decide to live in Flagstaff). Flagstaff is much colder the whole year. I'm talking about the areas near Phoenix.
Arizona is not known for having their own of anything. So when it comes to jobs one major employer out here would be Intel. Wages are ok, it took me a while to make what I was making in Chicago, but after 5 years, I'm finally making more. I guess it just depends on what field you get into or what company you work for.
Phoenix area, which is where I would suggest to live over Flagstaff and Tucson, is about 6 hours from everything good, so it's not bad. 6 hours to the California beaches, 6 hours to Vegas, 6 hours to El Paso. For a cool off in the summers, you can go to Flagstaff which is only 2 hrs away.
Housing is relatively inexpensive compared to other states. With the market so bad right now, you can buy a pretty big house for a relatively cheap price. If you want to live in the suburbs, there are new areas all over. Examples are Gilbert and Queen Creek. I live in QC, it's far from a lot of places, but you can get a whole lot of house for a little amount of money. Look into foreclosed houses because that happened a lot out here. Queen Creek is finally getting a ton of stores, so on weekends and stuff you don't have to drive that far for anything.
ASU is the big university in Phoenix area (Tempe). I know they're somewhat expensive, and I'm really not sure how out of state residency student tuition. If you live here for a certain amount of time, you can claim residency and will save you thousands of dollars. Good luck to you and your decision.
I have the limited version with a 2.7L V6. What are some ways to improve the horsepower besides a new airfilter?|||you could check out cardomain. thats where i got idead on how to upgrade my jaguar and volvo. otherwise, nothing can top research. but in the meantime, a supercharger would be great http://www.alpine-developments.us/id15.html AND, make sure you join a forum, www.hyundai-forums.com|||get out and push it to the junkyard|||nos|||Boy wacha yall doing driving them North Korean commi cars?|||Jack it up and drive a real American truck under it!! ;-}|||Trade it in for a Sante Fe with the 3.3L V6 or Veracruz with 3.8L V6. If you don't like those ideas, then go ahead and void your warranty while lowering the value of your Tucson by adding a full cat-back exhaust with headers, cold-air intake, performance spark plugs/wires, unorthodox underdrive pulley, NOS/Venom, Turbo-charger.
Like someone said if you want a sportscar SUV you'll have to buy an American brand or one of those really expensive European brands that start around $50K.|||You cant it a hyundai..|||Well....to give you a REAL answer.....
Try getting some sparkplugs which have more than a single electrode (the little arm that extends out over the post). Go to Auto Parts store to check them out.
They help to burn the gas more completely. I have used them in my 1991 beatup Geo Prizm, and they've made a BIG difference in performance, as much as can be done on a beatup Geo prizm!!
Changing air filter alone won't do anything, unless you're talking about changing the whole air flow system into something more high performance. But if you're merely talking lowest dollar and effort, changing to higher performance spark plug like I mentioned will help.
Changing to a fully synthetic oil also helps the car run easier. More expensive oil, but you might try it once to see how car runs.
Also, increase the air pressure in your tires. If you've got them at the average 32 ppi, then increase to 34-35. Adds just enough air--without any dangers--to help the vehicle roll a little bit easier.
One more thing......get a cheap bottle of STP gas treatment, go to Walmart or Kmart and get their house brand, usually a dollar or less. Do NOT add the whole bottle of 8 oz per gas tank. Just add few ounces, maybe up to 4 oz per tank. The idea isn't to really clean the engine. (It's kinda bit of trouble to just add few ounces, because you don't want to splash the stuff when you pull out the bottle from the gas pipe/cap opening. I find it's easier to stick a screwdriver to hold the little flap open, while I easily pour the few ounces down the pipe.)
The added gas treatment will help your engine run smoother because it burns the gas more effectively. I've noticed it many times on my bike and my older car, too. It's kinda like adding a squirt of lighter fluid on the charcoal to get it to flame up, but without the fireworks which the open flame shows. But main idea is the same. The charcoal will burn normally. But a quick splash of the lighter fluid helps it to burn better, admittedly not for long. But the few ounces in the gas tank DOES help the gas to burn better.
Remember, not the whole bottle. You should get at least 2 or 3 tankfuls of gas to a single 8 oz bottle. It's just to raise the burning coefficient of the gasoline a little bit higher so that it gives a better burn, thereby producing little bit more power. But it won't give you better gas mileage.
These are a few very simple items that might help your car run better. Good luck.

I respect the President for making the effort to attend the memorial in Tucson. But "memorial" is hardly what the event was.

Ms. Giffords was among those on Ms. Palin's map."
The Huffington Post: "Above all, to judge by Jared Loughner's deluded ramblings about government brainwashing and a phony currency, extremists are becoming even more radicalized and violent. Given some of the wild rhetoric emanating from the Tea Party, the surprising thing probably isn't that a terrible event like this happened now. It's that it didn't occur even earlier."
Achenblog (at The Washington Post): "Giffords was one of the 20 Democrats who were elected in 2008 and voted for health care reform and were then targeted for defeat by Sarah Palin in a "takebackthe20" campaign that included a map showing each congressional district in cross-hairs -- as in a gunsight.

Problems with wood mulch - decay, breakage, insects, moisture retention (mushrooms and mold), slivers, and the bits cling to clothing and leave stains. They get tracked inside and make a mess at every doorway.
AND, mulch doesn't provide as much protection against falls as pea gravel.
Pea gravel is made up of small, smooth stones (like the size of a bean). 4 inches of pea gravel provides as much protection as 12 inches of mulch -- and you probably aren't putting in a foot of mulch. The smooth stones actually shift to absorb the impact of an object falling. They don't harbor insects, dry quickly after rain (if the bottom of the play area has decent drainage), don't cling to clothing, and are easier to sweep back into the play yard.

I have a suspended license I just found out about in Tucson, AZ (they do not inform you when you are suspended鈥攈ow rude and unprofessional.) I need to get to work until I can pay some 12 year old forgotten fines on Thursday. In AZ, can you secure a hardship license??
I have to get to work to earn money to pay fines......|||It's going to take a lot longer than Thursday to get a hardship license. It's a long process. Yes, it can be done but you better have a very good reason.
If the only problem is fines, you should be able to negotiate an installment plan and get your license back.
It is possible but very difficult. UCLA gives priority consideration to transfer applicants from CA community colleges. Transfer applicants from out-of-state colleges are only considered on a space available basis and therefore the admit rate is extremely low.
The situation is exacerbated by the fact that the Film and Television major (there is no cinematography major at UCLA) has an average admit rate of less than 3%.|||Yes, just make sure that all of your credits transfer (you need 60 semester/90 quarter units, no exceptions), and that you submit all of the required documents to UCLA admissions.

I have a Hyundai Tucson V6 model, had it over a year and it runs amazing. No complaints about it all, but more a concern, I'm interested in what other owners are getting on a full tank of gas on there Tucsons? What is your total KM? Thanks|||What year model is your car?
Depending on year model, they had a different final drive ratio due to excessive fuel usage.
If you are getting 450km per tank around town - this is normal. On freeways it, of course, should be better.
We have a close friend who gets 450 to 550km in city driving per tank and is very impressed.
I am a student who is looking to travel to Arizona in august, but i don't have a lot of money. I would not mind spending a day or two traveling, I would just not like to spend a lot of money. Can anyone help me? are there any cheap buses or trains or planes? HELP PLEASE!|||You may have a bulletin board in your school where you can post your schedule. Offer to share expenses - like gas and food - and see if someone else is going your way at the same time you need to go.|||walk|||You can probably get a bus ticket for around $120, a train ticket for around $160, or an airline ticket for about $350.
If that is too much, you could try Craigslist or something and see if you can hitch a ride with someone that is heading that way.|||Greyhound, and although that's very cheap there may well be even cheaper local operators. Good luck!|||I usually go by plane to somewhere, because of how many times i go i get flight miles, which i can use to by a ticket for free but spend my miles, but from the distance your going its probably $300 or $400.
I'll be in Tucson for one day. What should I do for fun? I'll probably only be there once in my life, so I would like it to be memorable.|||I say the Desert Museum too. It's really cool !
They have a free flight bird demonstration ( ravens, owls and hawks) at 10:30 and 1:30 daily. It's pretty cool too. I also would recommend going up Mt Lemmon ( Catalina Highway) . It's a scenic drive up 10,000 feet with stop points along the way to see the fantastic views. And, if you deciede to go to the Desert Museum stop at Starr Pass along the way, also a scenic area|||I would hit the Flandrau Planetarium at the University of Arizona, if you like space and that sort of thing. The Sonora Desert Museum is very interesting and not something you can get elsewhere, bing an outdoor thing with lots of desert stuff growing.|||Sticking your head in the sand and cross dressing is a favorite past time on the UofA campus
Go Devils!|||Bah...forget Flandrau. It's nothing special as far as planetariums go and parking on the U of A campus can be a real pain. But the Desert Museum, yeah, that's probably our star attraction...along with simply taking the drive through the desert to get there.
If you're really into aviation, the Pima Air and Space Museum would be a fun time...including a bus tour of "the boneyard" (AMARC) where we have miles and miles of military aircraft stored. I doubt you'd experience anything like it anywhere else. Another one-of-a-kind attraction is the Titan Missile Museum where you can tour a decommisioned nuclear missile silo...a sobering insight on the Cold War. Tour only takes an hour but it's about 20 miles south of Tucson. On the way there you can take a quick detour to the San Xavier Mission...another unique site. Not sure if I'd define it as particularly fun though...but interesting and certainly is culturally relevant to the area.
If you like hiking, there's no shortage of that in the area. Feel free to contact me for some ideas on trails.

i really hope this helps you :)|||You find it here, follow these :
When mother Nature has provided us with such a simple and easy treatment to cure diseases and even to avoid them we all must follow the instructions given by her. These Therapies only help Nature to cure us. Let us not ignore Nature in our mad pursuit of science. THIS NATURE'S 'DO IT YOURSELF' ACUPRESSURE THERAPY ITSLEF IS A SCIENCE AND NOT A MATTER OF BELIEF. Try this Therapy sincerely and regularly for at least 15 days and observe its wonderful and amazing result.
Depression, Tension & Increase of will-power.
Increasing the will-power : Our mind has a great effect on these glands. For example, continuous fear damages the Pituitary gland and makes one timid. Similarly,tension and worry disturb the Pineal gland and so leads to high B.P. and as Pineal gland controls other glands it also disturbs other glands and digestive system. In modern times, strees-tension or worry-fear have increased and they often disturb these endocrine glands. If these endocrine glands are not treated immediately, it might lead to malfunctioning of other glands of the body. As these glands are interrelated, whenever one gland is disturbed, the other glands also get disturbed. So, when you press on the points of these endocrine glands you will feel pain on points of more than one gland especially in case of chronic diseases. Therefore, it is very improtant to give Acupressure treatment on all the endocrine glands and keep them under proper control.
These glands also control the mind (the will-power). So in order to get rid of bad habits like smoking, drinking, drug addiction or even overeating, it is extremely necessary to give treatment on all endocrine glands for at least, fifteen days. Because, these people lack the necessary will-power to give up bad habits, they often break their vows to stop such bad habits and so they are considered unreliable. However, a treatment of fifteen days will give them necessary will-power to stop these bad habits after that. And they will be free from the withdrawal symptoms of stopping these bad habits.
Nervous tension : In the modern days because of fast life and loss of contentment,nervous tension keeps on building up increasingly, tending to damage our mind and health.
How to find out : Ask the patient to lie down on the back and ask some one to press on the base of the middle toe in both the legs. If there is a hurting sensation,it means nervous tension. If the hurting is unbearable, it means that the person is on the verge of collapse and needs immediate attention.
C U R E : (1) While the patient is lying on the back, bend all the toes of both legs, backward. It may hurt but give little more pressure and bend them as much as possible. Repeat this three times a day till the tension is removed.
(2) Clasp your hands tightly interlocking the fingers. Then with left hand fingers press on the back of the right hand and then with right hand fingers, press on the back of the left hand. repeat for about 1 to 2 minutes, 3 to 4 times a day.
(3) Insomnia : The above mentioned treatment can be taken for 5 to 12 minutes at night in bed to ensure good sleep and cure insomnia.
(4) Take 2 glasess of gold/silver/copper charged water reduced from 8 glasses of water daily.
(5) Kali Phos 1 m (a Biochemic medicine) : Take 8 pills in the eveining between 8 to 9 p.m. for 10 days, then once a week. After 10 days Kali Phos 12 x 4+4 pills every day. Complete course is of 45 days.

If so, how do you cope during monsoon season? After it rains, do you turn the pump off or leave it on? What do you do to keep the humidity down in your home?|||My parents have both a swamp cooler(SC) and air conditioning (AC). They leave the SC on a little too long for my liking and I hate going to their house so I know what you are talking about. I would suggest that you pick the room you want to be in most of the time during those months and get a window AC for it. You could get a separate dehumidifier but it might overwork it leaving you with the same problem. Did you know that Habitat for Humanity has opened a store and you might be able to pick up a window unit for a great price. http://www.hfhtucson.com/cms/page.aspx?p鈥?/a>
Is it as "simple" as removing all of the evap's hardware and then having an a/c unit installed? Can you use the existing ducting or must you update it too? With some general knowledge of home electricity and wiring is this something I may be able to do myself? Thanks for answering!|||First, check your existing ductwork. If it's insulated you can use it for A/C. You will have to install at least one return air vent and can use flex duct for that. Run it to where the new unit will be located. Now, I wouldn't try to do the actual install myself for a couple of reasons. First, a home size a/c unit will require 240 vac electricity and that may have to be run from your panel, or a sub panel may have to be installed. Second, no matter which a/c unit you purchase, it will have a warranty which the manufacturer could try to weasel out of if you self install it. Unless the unit is self contained it will require copper run from the compressor to the air handler and unless you're a pro you can't buy the coolant gas to charge the unit. Third, if there's a fire or other damage resulting from the wiring or install of the new unit your insurance company may not cover the damages if the work wasn't done or at least signed off on by a licensed professional.|||An evaporitive cooler or "swampy" as we call them cannot be turned into an a/c unit. Typically you can duct a package a/c unit into the swampy's duct system but since swampies don't have a return duct that would need to be run into the house. It is not really a job for the DIYer as duct, electrical and control wiring would need added.
Mapquest is saying it would take 13 hours. That seems kinda short to me. Is that right? I would be impressed if anyone knew the answer.|||921 miles is about as long as any single-day drive my family has ever done; our longest is somewhere between 800 and 850, also across Texas (around Deming, NM to Texarkana, AR); I remember it being just short of 900 miles.
Doing 70, math says just over 13 hours *if* you do it NON-STOP. add in 2-3 hours for food and restroom stops, and you're talking a good 15-16 hours, assuming no traffic anywhere along the way. This is not always a safe assumption. There could be construction to slow you down, there could be an accident ahead (one had us at a dead stop east of El Paso on I-10 for around 45 minutes on the previously-mentioned trip with my family). However, this route doesn't pass through any huge cities along the way, except El Paso, until you get to Fort Worth, so it might not be too bad traffic-wise.
Allow maybe 16 or 17 hours to be safe. It's long, but it's do-able if you have the stamina. An extra driver or two is strongly recommended; otherwise, factor in even more time for resting along the way.
Have a safe trip!|||Google Earth suggests 14 hours 23 minutes to drive the 921 miles.

I live in Phoenix, and have a garden every year. You can plant seeds right now, but don't expect them to come up right away. It will be another few weeks before the soil is warm enough. Pretty much any already growing plant (HD/Lowe's/Garden Center) should be fine. You just might have to cover them a night or two. Your safest bet is wait until the 1st of Feb. I know, I know, I've got the itch to start too.:-)|||it might just be since its not to cold and the sun is starting to stick its head out|||Hi, Lois. Ever heard the term called a killing frost? Even in the desert regions it gets cold at night. Plus unseasonably warm weather at this time of the year isn't usually permanent.
I made the same mistake & lost all my effort to two cold nights. Even in Ky (where I now live) planting season is May 10th yet we've had fluky weather as late as the 9th.
I'd say it's safe to get them started inside. But don't plant them outside until no more than a few days before & only then if the weather forecast is favorable.
Az. has hard soil from the sun & desert conditions so the ground stays cold longer. The soil underneath is what determines the success more than weather above. You could till the soil & fertilize where you're going to be planting so the ground will warm up quicker. But take it from one who's "been there, done that". Don't plant early.|||It depends on the plant you're going to plant.|||yes, but want a month before you set out tender plants.|||if u stick with native plants u should be alright but i'm afraid u still have some winter coming.

Stay away from there if you can. Unless you like that sort of thing. The biggest adjustment I had to make when I moved from Phx to Tucson was the driving. People drive slower here. They stop for people in crosswalks. And if you're driving on Speedway, go the speed limit or you'll get a ticket. PS they got rid of the suicide lanes. you don't have to worry about those anymore.|||I'm sure you'll acclimate and be OK. It's hot, arid, dry desolate smoggy and icky, but then I don't really like Arizona. Are you sure you want to go there, and if you're sure than I'm sure you'll love it!!! Make sure your AC in you car and home always work and do you have a pool where you're moving to? And oh yeah - they drive like 90 year old people if i really wanted to insult my elders! They signal, but never turn or turn without signalling. They do that tappy tappy brake thing where if you're behind them it's a mini light show of morse code of brake lights! They slow down at green lights, and don't really differentiate between yellow and red lights. One cool thing is that outside of the school zone, no matter how old you are, you're always the youngest one there!

I could use some help on how to get a small mortgage on a low end property in Tucson or Phoenix Arizona area. Credit is fair. No recent problems Any help on real information. Please no sassy answers.|||A FHA mortgage loan would allow for some minor fix up of the property. Also offer the lowest down payment for a mortgage loan.
Buying a house is a step by step process, this is the first step you should take in order to purchase a house. The rest of the steps will fall in place, no matter the type of property you are purchasing.
In order to find out the type of loan programs you are qualified for you will have to fill out a loan application, with a mortgage broker, which you can find one in your local telephone book.
Make sure this mortgage broker or mortgage banker is able to do government loans such as FHA and VA loans if you qualify for one. With a VA mortgage loan you are not required to have a down payment, this will save you on closing cost.
He will fill out this application, which takes awhile so grab your favorite beverage and sit down. Once you have completed the application, he will run your credit report which will have your credit scores. These credit scores will determine your interest rate.
The amount of your monthly debt payments you are required to pay as per your credit report and the amount of mortgage you can take on based on your income will determine the amount of house you will be able to purchase.
When you speak with the mortgage broker you will need the following documents to complete the loan application, there will be others, but this will get you started.
#1 One month of pay stubs for each person that will be on the mortgage.
#2 Six months bank statements from each bank in which you bank as well as statements from any 401K from you place of employment.
#3 Two years of federal income tax along with the W-2 that match.
Once he has all that he need to do he can then issue you a pre-approval letter so you can purchase a home. In this pre-approval letter will be the amount of house you are qualified to purchased.
Once he gives you this pre-approval you may now find a real estate agent to find yourself a home or he might have a referral.
Now make sure before you get your pre-approval you and your mortgage broker go over all your options as to the mortgage programs you qualify for, the interest rate, monthly payments.
If you are getting a FHA, fixed rate, two loans to eliminate PMI like an 80/20 or one loan, if you are qualified for and approved for a 100% loan.
You should select the loan that best suit your financial condition at the time. That could be an adjustable rate loan. It could be a fixed rate loan for 5 or 10 years and then adjust. Some adjustable rate mortgages only adjust once.
Make sure your mortgage broker explain all your options so you may make an intelligent decision.
What might be good for one person might not be good for you, in other words just because your friends and all your real estate buddies are telling you about the great fixed rate they got, your financial situation might call for something else.
So select the best option for you and your financial situation.
You should also get a Good Faith Estimate (GFE) which will indicate the cost you will have to pay for getting this loan. It will also indicate the amount of your down payment.
Once you have found a home the real estate agent will then prepare a contract for you and the seller to sign.
Your mortgage broker will now order an appraisal to show proof of the property value.
The mortgage broker might ask for additional information or documentation, don't get all up tight this is normal, just supply the information or find the documents needed.
After the appraisal has been completed you will be called by your mortgage broker to sign your loan docs so you can take possession of your new home.
Before signing any loan docs make sure they say exactly what you and your mortgage broker went over when you decided on what mortgage program was best for you.
I hope this has been of some benefit to you, good luck

After the Tucson shooting, Obama's chances of being re-elected to a 2nd term just increased ten fold. Especially since the leftwing media who is in the tank for Obama will likely paint the Republican Party in the 2012 presidential elections as the party of violent crazy gunman.
Even if the unemployment rate is still high in November of 2012, the leftwing media still has the Tucson shooting as a weapon against the Republicans.|||Americans have notoriously short memories when it comes to presidents which is why both Clinton and Obama seemingly successfully "moved to the center" and were perceived as far less liberal than their policies would indicate. In Clinton's case, he adopted welfare reform - after strenuously opposing it - which solidified his image as a "moderate." Obama has the Tucson speech and a slew of initiatives, including regulatory reform, that he is trying to show his move to the center.
Will it last? Abraham Lincoln's admonishment about "fooling all the people all the time" is instructive here. Sooner or later, people will wake up to the fact that the economy is not really getting much better, and that the reason can be laid at Obama's feet.
Expect those approval ratings to dip back below 50% once the glow from Obama's Tucson speech wears off. o_O|||I truly hope not.

I need to know so I can do a project for chemistry class.|||The regular soil around there might be clayey. you can ask the Tucson Botanical Garden or any local nursery or local garden forums. Clay soil is so common, that it is not something that you find for sale. It is everywhere. you can find it where you find puddles<<on the dried puddle, it is the smoothest dirt. it is not sand but more like powder. if it is wet, then it is mud and still smooth but sticky too.
sources of Tucson garden help:
http://www.tucsonnewcomer.com/features/g鈥?/a>
Clay has little pieces that fit close together. those surfaces make nice smooth pottery. and solid bricks. People dig up clay soil and then use it to make bricks and pottery and also people sell clay for those purposes.
here is a craft supply shop:
Michaels-Arts & Crafts
(520) 293-0430
4070 N Oracle Rd
Tucson, AZ 85705-2720
and you can research "pottery supplies" if you want because there will be a lot in your area. telephone books and the internet are good.
here is a site with recipes to make your own "clay":
http://familycrafts.about.com/od/clayrec鈥?/a>
In terms of texture, clay soil is made of particles smaller than sand, less than 0.002mm in size. "Clayey" soil must have at least 30% clay particles. Clay particles are the dust of a thousand ingredients and so they have many nutrients.
Since it is composed of the smallest and lightest particles, it will take the longest to settle out of solution<<<the heavier particles will settle to the bottom of a glass of water much more quickly than clay particles will settle.
Clay soil is usually acidic but alkaline soils can be very clay like as well. Desert clays are often alkaline>>>maybe Tucson's desert is like that. Alkaline clays are used for cement>>like lime. lime is powerful in many ways. and it is also sold as fertilizer and soil amendment for areas that are acidic.
clay soil can have a neutral pH too but usually a whole region will have the same type of soil..we do not find acidic soil here on this one street corner lot and then alkaline soil on the next street.
and it can be black or brown or red or orange or yellow or white
pH can be related to colors, for instance alkaline soil like lime is usually white or sometimes yellow. Acidic colors are red and orange<<they have lots of oxidized iron.
and clay is needed to make up the best of garden soils/loams.
You can buy special pure clays from all over the world. You can buy them by the ounce and such because women use it for face treatments. i have seen it from $4.50 to $13 per oz (USD).
for clay soil in your area you only need to look around and dig around and examine the texture of the soil. There will probably be a few layers and a few colors. When you see how many layers and what colors then take notes. Then you will be able to find out all that you need. The soils will be documented on the web and at university sites. they will be documented according to color and depth of layer and number of layers and thickness of layers. and if you bring samples to various local authorities, those people will give you opinions that you can weigh for truth and then include in your studies.
sometimes the local agricultural extension office would do free tests but it is rare these days, you can check with your area's extension
so there you go, dig around for smooth powdery dirt <<not sand, but powder
or sticky gooey puddles if it's raining down there <<not regular sand that would fall apart in a sand snowball but sticky smooth make some pottery type clay
the pH is easy to find out, btw, you can use paper test strips from science class or get some at the local nursery/plant supply place (they can cost almost $10 USD sometimes). or you can make your own strips with a red cabbage. search "homemade pH test red cabbage"

At the end of her life she had to be put in a nursing home. When I would visit my family we would go get her and take her to lunch.

Tucson as seen from spaceTucson is located at 32掳12鈥?2鈥砃, 110掳55鈥?鈥砏 (32.214476, -110.918192)GR1.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 505.3 km虏 (195.1 mi虏). 504.2 km虏 (194.7 mi虏) of it is land and 1.1 km虏 (0.4 mi虏) of it (0.22%) is water.
The city's elevation is 2,389 ft (728 m) above sea level. Tucson is situated on an alluvial plain, surrounded by five minor ranges of mountains: the Santa Catalina Mountains and the Tortolita Mountains to the north, the Santa Rita Mountains to the south, the Rincon Mountains to the east, and the Tucson Mountains to the west. The Santa Catalina Mountains feature 9,157-foot-high Mount Lemmon, the southernmost ski destination in the continental U.S., while the Tucson Mountains include 4,687-foot Wasson Peak.
The view of Tucson from Windy Point, at elevation 6,580 feet on Mt. Lemmon.The city is located on the Santa Cruz River, a dry river bed much of the year that floods during significant seasonal rains. (The Santa Cruz becomes a subterranean stream part of the year although it may appear dry.)
Tucson is located along I-10, which runs through Phoenix toward Santa Monica, California in the northwest, and through El Paso, Texas toward Jacksonville, Florida in the east. I-19, runs south from Tucson toward Nogales and the U.S.-Mexico border.
[edit] Environmental impact
In 2006 the City of Tucson was ranked overall number 20 of 50 U.S. cities by the organization SustainLane on quality of life and economic factors that affect personal sustainability. The complete study is available online at www.sustainlane.com [1].
Tucson can point with pride to numerous public/private projects which have made the Tucson metro area a national leader in conservation/sustainable living evolution.
While Tucson is a "natural" for development into a solar community, there is a long way to go. Perhaps the biggest sustainability problem is potable water supply: although agriculture in Arizona uses far more water than the city itself, and Tucsonans find lawns and swimming pools less acceptable than their neighbours in Phoenix, massive drawing down of groundwater resources over the last 100 years has occurred, visible as subsidence in some residential areas.
Tucson's new reliance on the CAP canal, passing more than 300 miles across the desert from the Colorado River, cast doubt over "sustainability" claims even at current population levels. This points to the need for further efforts at re-use and recycling, prompted by Pima Country and the city in numerous outreach campaigns, and halt to urban growth into the fragile ecosysems of the surrounding Sonoran Desert.
[edit] Water
While the Santa Cruz river once flowed nearly year-round through Tucson less than 100 years ago, the city's water has been slowly disappearing since then, causing Tucson to seek alternative sources.
Until 1887, Tucson residents purchased water for a penny a gallon from vendors who transported it in bags draped over burros' backs. After that, water was sold by the bucket or barrel and delivered door-to-door in wagons.
In 1881 water was pumped from a well on the banks of the Santa Cruz River and flowed by gravity through pipes into the distribution system.
Tucson currently draws water from three main sources: Central Arizona Project (CAP) water, effluent (treated wastewater), and groundwater. In 1992, Tucson Water delivered CAP water to some customers that was referred to as being unacceptable. This problem led Tucson to modify its water resources plan to allow more study of the best use of CAP water. While currently dependent on groundwater, Tucson is making use of CAP water by selling it to local farmers, and is developing several recharge projects to augment groundwater supply.[2]
[edit] Cityscape
Similar to many cities in the Western U.S., Tucson was developed on a grid plan, with the city center at Stone Avenue and Broadway Boulevard. While this intersection was initially near the geographic center of Tucson, due to urban development the intersection is presently located in the west-central part of town. As an expansive city covering substantial area, Tucson features many distinct neighborhoods.
[edit] Earliest neighborhoods
Tucson's early neighborhoods (some of which are covered by the Tucson Convention Center) include Barrio Libre; Barrio Anita, named for an early settler; Barrio Tibur贸n (in the present Fourth Avenue arts district), designated in territorial times as a "(red light) district"; El Jard铆n, named for an early recreational site, Levin's Gardens; and El Ollo, named for a lake that was part of the gardens. Up until the building of the Tucson Convention Center (or TCC), El Ollo referred to this part of the city, which was inhabited mainly by Mexican-American citizens and immigrants from Mexico. Other historical neighborhoods include Armory Park, south of downtown, the Sam Hughes neighborhood (named after an instigator-hero of the Camp Grant Massacre), located east of the University of Arizona, and Menlo Park, situated adjacent to Sentinel Peak.
[edit] Downtown
Downtown Tucson is undergoing a revitalization effort by city planners and the business community. The primary project is Rio Nuevo, a large retail and community center. Downtown is generally classified as north of 12th Street, east of I-10, and southwest of Toole Avenue and the Southern Pacific Railroad. Downtown is divided into the Presidio District, Convention District, and the Congress Street Arts & Entertainment District.
UniSource Energy Tower (center) as seen from midtown looking westTucson's tallest building, the 23-story UniSource Energy Tower (also called the Bank Building) is situated downtown and was completed in 1986. The proposed Century Tower for downtown would surpass the Bank Building at 27 stories. Other high-rise buildings downtown include Bank of America Plaza, and the Pioneer (completed in 1914).
Attractions downtown include the historic Hotel Congress designed in 1919, the Art Deco Fox Tucson Theatre designed in 1929, the Rialto Theatre opened in 1920, and St. Augustine Cathedral completed in 1896. Included on the National Register of Historic Places is the old Pima County Courthouse, completed in 1927 [3].
[edit] Central or Midtown
As one of the oldest parts of town, Central Tucson is anchored by the intersection of Campbell Avenue and Grant Road. The University of Arizona, chartered in 1885, is located in midtown and includes Arizona Stadium and McKale Center. Historic Tucson High School (designed in 1924), and the Arizona Inn (built in 1930) are also located in Central Tucson.
Tucson's largest park, Reid Park is located in midtown and includes a zoo and Hi Corbett Field. Local retail in Central Tucson is concentrated along Fourth Avenue and also Main Gate Square on University Boulevard near the UA campus. The El Con Mall is also located in midtown.
[edit] South Side
South Tucson is administered largely by the city that shares its name. The South Side of Tucson is generally defined as the area north of Los Reales Road, east of I-19 and southwest of Aviation Parkway. While the South Side has lower real estate values than most other Tucson neighborhoods, it supports a vibrant culture influenced by Mexico. The Tucson International Airport and Tucson Electric Park are also located on the South Side.
[edit] West Side
West Tucson is a combination of urban and suburban development. Generally defined as the area west of I-10, West Tucson encompasses the banks of the Santa Cruz River and the foothills of the Tucson Mountains. Attractions in West Tucson include Saguaro National Park West, Sentinel Peak, the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, Old Tucson Studios, and the Marriott Starr Pass Resort & Spa.
[edit] North Side
North Tucson includes the urban neighborhoods of Amphitheater and Flowing Wells. Usually considered the area north of Fort Lowell Road, North Tucson includes some of Tucson's primary commercial zones (Tucson Mall and the Oracle Road Corridor). Many of the city's most upscale boutiques, restaurants, and art galleries are also located on the North Side including St. Philip's Plaza. The Plaza is directly adjacent to the historic St. Philip's in the Hills Episcopal Church (built in 1936).
Also on the North Side is the suburban community of Catalina Foothills, located in the foothills of the Santa Catalina Mountains just north of the city limits. This community includes among the area's most expensive homes, commonly multi-million dollar estates. The Foothills area is generally defined as north of River Road, east of First Avenue, and west of Sabino Creek. Some of the Tucson area's major resorts are located in the Catalina Foothills, including the Westin La Paloma Resort, Loews Ventana Canyon Resort and Canyon Ranch Spa. La Encantada, an upscale outdoor shopping mall is also in the Foothills.
[edit] East Side
East Tucson is relatively new compared to other parts of the city, developed between the 1950s and the 1970s. East Tucson is generally classified as the area of the city east of Swan Road, with above average real estate values relative to the rest of the city. The area includes urban and suburban development near the Rincon Mountains. East Tucson includes Saguaro National Park East. Tucson's Restaurant Row is also located on the East Side, along with a significant corporate and financial presence. Tucson's largest office building is 5151 East Broadway in East Tucson, completed in 1975. Park Place is also located on the East Side.
Situated between the Santa Catalina Mountains and the Rincon Mountains near Redington Pass northeast of the city limits is the community of Tanque Verde. The Arizona National Golf Club, Forty-Niners Country Club, and the historic Tanque Verde Guest Ranch are also in Northeast Tucson.
[edit] Southeast Side
Southeast Tucson continues to experience rapid residential development. The area includes the Davis-Monthan Air Force Base. The area is classified as south of Golf Links Road. The suburban community of Vail is also located on the Southeast Side.
[edit] Northwest Side
Much of the Northwest Side is single-family residential areas, as seen from the northeastern foothills of the Tucson Mountains.The expansive area northwest of the city limits is known as the Northwest Side. The Northwest Side includes significant economic diversity ranging from the rural communities of Catalina and parts of the town of Marana, to the affluent town of Oro Valley in the western foothills of the Santa Catalina Mountains, and residential areas in the northeastern foothills of the Tucson Mountains. The community of Casas Adobes is also on the Northwest Side, with the distinction of being Tucson's first suburb, established in the late 1940s. Casas Adobes is centered around the historic Casas Adobes Plaza (built in 1948). The Foothills Mall is also located on the Northwest Side.
Many of the Tucson area's golf courses and resorts are located in this area, including the Hilton El Conquistador Golf & Tennis Resort in Oro Valley, the Omni Tucson National Resort & Spa, and Westward Look Resort. Catalina State Park and Tortolita Mountain Park are also on the Northwest Side.

If we look back in five or ten years, how many will be bankrupted or homeless from the expenses?
Just wondering why Americans don't have health insurance as good as Belgium? Holland? New Zealand?|||At least she VOTED for the Health Care bill. It got her office vandalized in March.|||Probably none of them will be bankrupt or homeless.
There are just a few more people in the United States than in the countries listed. Add to that about 14 million illegal aliens that are taken care of at US taxpayer's expense and you begin to see why it's nearly impossible to insure everyone. Plus, there is a system in place for low income people and families (Medicaid) that pays for everything - again, at taxpayer's expense. Another system is there for the elderly, disabled and those with end stage kidney disease (Medicare).If people don't have health insurance, most hospitals and doctors will be happy to set up payment plans, and if $25 a month is all a person can afford, that's what they pay. And hospitals write off quite a lot of fees for care provided. (Ever see any articles about some person being treated in the US - and the hospital and surgeons have all waived their fees? Well, "someone" is paying for all that "free" care down the road, trust me. People with insurance get it passed on to them in the way of higher premiums and deductibles.)
I live in New Zealand and health care is not totally "free" - it's paid for by taxes, and we have a GST of 15% - and that is on everything, including food. I also pay a fee when I see my GP. Medications are limited here, too - I had to change one medication when I got here as the one I had been on in the states is not available here. There have been articles in the paper recently about how people are flocking to emergency rooms with minor illnesses and accidents because it costs "too much" to see a GP - especially after hours and on holidays. And, of course, the GPs who are only out for the money, are to blame. (Yeah, right! Would you work for free? Stay up nearly 24 hours treating people who want instant cures for colds? Or treating people who are throwing up because they spent the day before drinking themselves to oblivion? Or who have a baby with a little vomiting and diarrhea? I doubt it - but that's what our GPs do! They SHOULD be paid!)
I worked in a system that had several large hospitals and I can tell you that the hospitals also got tax money for "indigent care" - in other words, people who couldn't pay.
I am holding a meeting for 8 people and I wanted to have it in a restaurant.

Granted, milk in the desert starts out more expensive, but where's cheapest? Im a twenty something female but I go through milk like a trucker left alone with a bag of chocolate chip cookies (1 and a half gallons a week, sometimes 2). Hey, I don't drink soda or coffee so don't poke fun.
Albertson's and Trader Joe's are out of the question. Safeway lured me in with buy 1, get 1 free but they jack the price of one gallon up so high you're not really getting one free. I've yet to find any place cheaper than Fry's, currently a gallon there costs $2.58.

A friend from Charleston wants some southern cooking for an ucoming birthday. Take out is fine. It doesn't have to be a 5 star place. It's the food that matters. Hamhocks and lima beans, grits, etc Any ideas?Thanks.|||Well I would check out some sites online. But you can't beat the classic Southern Dinner of Fried chicken, Cream Gravy, Mashed Garlic roasted Taters, and BBQ'd Corn on the Cob and some good southern biscuits.
Heres some recipes for that dinner:
Southern Fried Chicken With Gravy
INGREDIENTS:
oil or shortening
1 chicken, about 2 to 2 1/2 pounds, cut up
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
.
Cream Gravy
2 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons flour
salt and pepper, to taste
1 cup milk
1 cup water
PREPARATION:
Have a deep heavy skillet or Dutch oven with oil or hot fat about two inches deep.
Combine flour, salt and pepper; sift into a pie plate or wide bowl. Roll each piece of chicken in flour and place in the hot fat (about 370掳 F).
Put the largest pieces in firs, in the hottest part of the skillet. When all pieces are in the skillet and heat is regulated, cover and cook for 5 minutes. Remove top and turn chicken pieces when the underside is well browned. Replace top for another 5 minutes, remove and cook in open pan until the bottom side is browned. About 30 to 35 minutes in all will be required for cooking chicken if it is not too large. Try to turn the chicken only the one time.
The fat should be deep enough to cover the pieces when it boils up, but make sure you use a deep skillet, preferably one made for frying chicken, and watch carefully.
To make cream gravy:
Pour off all but about 2 tablespoons of the fat from the skillet. Add 2 tablespoons butter and 4 tablespoons flour; blend and cook until golden brown, scraping browned bits from bottom of skillet. Gradually stir in 1 cup milk and 1 cup hot water. Stir until smooth and thickened; add salt and black pepper. Pour into a gravy boat and serve with hot biscuits, potatoes, or rice.
Southern-Style Buttermilk Biscuits
2 cups all-purpose flour, stirred before measuring*
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup lard or vegetable shortening, chilled
2 tablespoons butter, chilled
3/4 cup buttermilk
PREPARATION:
Heat oven to 450掳. Adjust oven rack to center position.
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, soda, and salt. Cut in chilled shortening and butter until you have pieces the size of small peas.
Make a well in center of dry ingredients; pour in buttermilk. With a wooden spoon, gently blend dry ingredients into the buttermilk, just until mixture is clumping together. If necessary, add a few more teaspoons of buttermilk.
Transfer dough to a lightly floured board. Pat out in a circle about 8 inches in diameter and 1/2-inch thick. Using a 2 1/2 to 3-inch biscuit cutter, cut out and place on ungreased baking sheet. Bake on center oven rack for about 10 to 12 minutes, until tops are browned.
Makes 10 to 12 biscuits, depending on size of cutter.
*For the lightest biscuits, use a Southern white all-purpose flour if available

Hi, im just wondering since it's quite hot here in Arizona, and i don't know what is the right temperature of our house during the summer. Some people say that too much heat will ruin our appliances. Right now our thermostat is set to 75F, and the AC is almost non-stop. Thanks|||75 isn't bad, we keep ours at 68 at night and 70 to 75 during the day. I've never hear that things will go bad or whatever, not unless you keep your appliances outside. Any way enjoy Arizona. Watch out for crazy drivers, not kidding.|||Well what I would say is not too hot to where you cant stand it and then not too cold. Whatever feels good to you.|||75 F is the norm|||79 F|||69F.

I believe i have a virus on my computer, and im looking for a company to come to my house and fix my computer. I don't have a car or a lot of money so what would be the cheapest mobile computer company to go with?|||Well, the company I went with is F5 Geeks. They had the cheapest rate per hour that I found, and they came to my house at no charge. Sometimes viruses aren't as easy to remove if they dont allow your to access your internet, or even desktop! So to be sure that you remove all the threats on your computer check out F5Geeks.com and just have a technician come to you.
Their Price is $45 for the first hour, then $10 after that for every 15 mintues. So compare the price to geeks squad which would run you $200+ to do the same work your getting for $45 to $90, depending on what the problem is.
Hopefully this sames you some time, and I highly recommend this company. I'm not affiliated with the company, just like their service and price.|||If a virus is your only problem, don't pay for someone to take care of it for you.
When I have a virus I can't deal with, I run my virus scan of choice and if that doesn't find it, I uninstall it and install Norton 360's 15 day free trial and run that. If that doesn't find it, I uninstall that and try Panda Cloud Antivirus.
When it is finally taken care of, I uninstall the last one I had and reinstall my System Mechanic Pro and run a clean up.

We're brought close together because of the Tucson tragedy because, though only few people died, each person had a story which was told. This gave a feeling of connection between people. It's much easier to connect with a few people than with thousands.

Phoenix sucks. It's just a very hot L.A., without the famous people...well except for the golfers. Oh, golf courses suck too.

Unrepentant Marxist Amy Goodman gave Eric Fuller a platform to rant, the day before he told a Tea Party leader, “you are dead.”
Why isn't the media hounding "Democracy Now!" the same way they immediately pointed without justification toward "right-wing" radio hosts following the Tucson shooting?
Why are representatives of the radical left allowed to entertain mentally unstable people like Eric "You're dead" Fuller without the scrutiny that is reserved for everyone else?
Had it been Alex Jones who had Fuller on his show, there would be a media lynch mob knocking down his door.|||The media is Liberal. You're just figuring that out. Watch any NBC program and count the number of times they blame Right wing rhetoric for violence and compare that to all the Left wing violence in this country (shooting up George Bush's campaign office, burning down a Hummer dealership, etc). Good luck. They mention nothing. They did not even mention the death threats from Democratic Lawmaker in Fla because he retracted it. Free pass for Liberals. No wonder people are tuning into FOX. They made their own bed when underestimating the intelligence of viewers.
When Liberals throw rocks and destroy property at the G20 Summit, it's justice.|||You had a decent question until yo got to the point '....immediately pointed without justification toward "right-wing" radio hosts following the Tucson shooting?'
There is a long list of inflammatory, gun references, and violent ladden inuendo and imagery coming from those sources. To say otherwise is to be completely blind. Fuller was wrong to make the comments he did. But that is one person.|||Liberals did draw cross hairs on people. Actually, the "Daily Kos" (I call that site the "Daily Kommie"), a far-left web site of Democrat partisans, said that the Congresswoman who got shot was "dead to them" just a day or 2 before she was shot. After the fact, they whitewashed history.|||I'd like to say that yours is a nice twist but it's not. Nobody on the left drew cross hairs on people, or gave a call to lock and load. Liberal media doesn't rattle America's village idiots cages.|||It's no big shock that today's media are liberals with a liberal agenda and, therefore, follow a double standard.|||The Media has always had a double standard so nothing is new following Tuscon. It's just more blatant so more noticeable.

I am apartment hunting because I am planning to move their in a couple of weeks. What areas are the best place to live?|||Will you be working or going to school? How about being close to those places. Will you be riding a bike? Check out the Tucson Bike Map to be close to a route. I know this might sound like a crazy thing to consider, but, you do not want to be driving East to school or work in the morning, or west in the evening. The sun is just too intense. (That's considering that you work a day job.) The supermarket answer you previously received might be good advise. Tucson traffic may npt be as bad as some larger cities, but it is definitely time consuming. They don't have express routes across town. Try to find an area where you can be close to where you'll need to go. You'll save fuel and time for convenience sake.|||North East side. It is very lush compared to other parts, safer than other parts and it's the part of town that still has character. We live in Marana now (still known as NW Tucson, but it's actually a different town), and we wish we still lived on the east side. But if I had a second choice, it would be Marana.|||near the supermarket|||stay away from anything south of Broadway, and/or west stone. the university area ( as with all colleges) is expenses for small little apts, the farther north towards the foothills the more expensive it gets, same goes with going east. my first choice going north would be along river road. 2nd choice going east is wilmot. these are about as close to the city center as i would suggest. the father out you go the nicer it is, but then you add up driving time

I'm moving to Tucson in the fall and I was wondering what the average apartment is there. Specifically square footage and price for studio, 1BR, and 2BR.|||There is no such thing as an "average" for square footage. In the city where I work, a studio can be anywhere from 395-600SF. A 1 bedroom could be anywhere from 475-900SF and a 2 bedroom could be anywhere from 750-1600SF. So there is no such thing as an average. Every developer and builder has their own desires for square footage based on their expectations for sale or rental value in certain areas and parts of town. It's not uncommon to see that downtown will have smaller square footage (in newer buildings) and suburbs or non-downtown will have larger square footage. It's all about demand and cost benefit analysis.|||Like the first answer said, there's not really an average. However, most, and i mean 85%+ of apartments in Tucson are trashy, have drug problems, or there is a different squad car there every other night for who knows why!!! So if you are looking for an apartment, don't be fooled by what they look like online. There are some great apartments in the foothills and on the east side. Although they can be quite pricey, there are some affordable ones, you just have to look for them!! Just look for apartments north of river road, and it will most likely be higher quality than most Tucson apartments. I know someone who lives at the Colonia del Sol apartments, which are roughly at River road and Campbell. These apartments are nice, affordable, in a nice part of town, and you still have the amenities of the foothills, but you still have a short dive to anywhere in Tucson!!!! Enjoy Tucson!!!!

This guy is a democrat. He just blamed the Republican party for recent heated debate(funny how nothing mentioned about the liberals behavior during the Bush admin).

Are we giving this wacko too much credit?|||a liberal Arizona sheriff ha good one. I did not hear him say anything about republicans, just inflammatory rhetoric, whats the matter starting to realize that words have consequences? your type should feel guilty.|||Is it tasteful? No. It was speculation at a point when no facts were available. And the facts turned out to be a mentally disturbed person acted alone and it had nothing to do with anything any party did. He is hired to carry out law enforcement in his County and speculating about motive absent of facts is not doing his job.|||The Sheriff was a witness to the Tea Party's targeting of Gabrielle Giffords.

The last time we drove up to Vegas from Tucson, we used map-quest directions. It took us through about 10 miles of stop lights, all of the RED. Is there a quicker way around the city? Thanks!|||I'm guessing all those lights were on Grand Avenue (US 60). Another alternative to avoid Grand Ave (US 60) through town is to take I-17 north to Carefree Highway (SR 74) and head west. It's more miles. But, as long as you hit I-17 before rush hour traffic (3PM to 7PM earlier on Friday) it should be pretty smooth sailing.
From the juncture of I-10 and I-17 Carefree highway is about 24 miles north. Carefree highway (SR74) isn't divided but still easier driving in my opinion than Grand Ave. You'll pick up US 60 (about 34 miles) just outside of Wickenburg at Morristown I believe . At that point just follow the Map Quest directions.
I've made this journey from north Phoenix this way a dozen or so times. Hope this helps.|||Not really. The only suggestion that I have is to Take route 10 to route 8 and head west to Gila Bend. At Gila Head north on US 95 until you pick up route 10 west of Phoenix. Continue on 10 until Blythe, then head north to Needles, and continue on to Las Vegas. It's 494 miles vs. 418 miles going through Phoenix. I would do that only if you think you might get stuck around Phoenix in traffic or if you prefer scenic routes. I for one would take the extra hour and head to Gila Bend.|||No problem
I-10 W to exit 161(?) which is Loop 202>
Take Loop 202 to Loop 101 N and then stay with 101 North to I-17 N

Take that over to US 60

I have a Tucson and it looks like the anchor systems are on the side seats, not the center. I thought the middle was the safest place for an infant car seat.

Is that right or am I reading the manual wrong?|||I would read the manual for the car, I know my Nissan tells you where the safest place for a rear facing, forward and a booster is. Good luck...you could always ask the hospital as well.|||First: the safest position for a car seat is where it fits the best. The safest way to install it is whichever gives you the best installation. LATCH is not safer than seatbelts. It was invented to be more convenient and universal than seatbelt installing, but it failed on both counts b/c of the wide variance between vehicles on how far apart the LATCH anchors are. Most cars prohibit using LATCH in the center position, you're right. So if you are dead set on LATCH, you will have to use an outer position.
Try installing in the center with seatbelt.
Try installing outboard with seatbelt.
Try installing outboard with LATCH.
Now pick whichever installation was the best. A car seat is installed properly when there is less than 1" of movement at the belt path.|||You are reading it correctly! If you can get a solid install in the center with the seatbelt, then put it there. If not, then put it outboard with LATCH or the vehicle seatbelt.

You could however, gear food with a "latino" flavor (if such a thing exist) or come up with something like "Nuevo Latino Cuisine." As to the cards, again, using a Puerto Rican flag in artwork isn't going to sell to Mexican's.

Making a pizza isn't hard at all. Just buy a pizza shell at the store, and pizza sauce, cheese and toppings.

Bake until brown on top. It's not hard at all.|||There is no pizza places that will teach you how to create a pizza, unless you enrolled into culinary arts school.|||There is no pizza places that will teach you how to create a pizza,|||sure
My family and I are going to Tucson and we are wondering where to stay?|||Little known fact: when Tucson, Arizona was first settled, it was called San Francisco, California!
;)
(for a real response: try asking in the "Phoenix" category. It's at least in the same state.)|||there are quite a few sites that you can search that will likely show you great hotels at the best prices available. check out the website BookMe and you will be able to compare prices on all the reputable travel sites in just a couple minutes. it's very convenient and will save you a bunch of time and money. Also, make sure you buy them online... otherwise they charge much higher fees for phone orders. good luck.|||I recommend not staying in San Francisco if you want to visit Tucson.
He loves beer, meat and all of the stuff most men do. I'm looking for an activity to entertain us for the afternoon/evening plus a great place for drinks and possibly another great place for dinner. I am not native to the Tucson area and don't know where to begin.|||Look for restaurants that are either microbreweries or have great craft beer lists. (Meaning, they go beyond Budweiser, Miller, etc.) It would be even better if they have a good happy hour. One of our favorite restaurants in Bowling Green, OH has a craft beer list and a happy hour from two to six in the afternoon. The appetizers are only $4 and they really don't have beer specials. THey have a $2 beer of the day, though. Usually it's something boring like Budweiser, or Labast; Last Saturday we were there and it was MGD 64. We don't do light beer. (Two times ago it was Ommegang Hennepin and we think it was because they were drying hte keg to make room for something new.) Anyway, I'm digressing.
I'm not sure how to look for the restaurants with craft lists, but for microwbrewery do a search for "tuscon microbreweries" or "tuscon breweries", etc. We also like Maumee Bay Brewery in TOledo. We're not crazy about the food, but the beer is great. (My favorite is the Oatmeal Breakfast Stout.) They have a cafe that is only open from 11-3, but has a great house made black bean burger on a whole wheat bun. HTta is nicely unique in itself.
Anyway, I hope this has been of some help. Perhaps do a restaurnt search for Tuscon and look at the on-line menus.|||La Poca Cosa. Fresh ingredients and specials made daily. Always hit that place when I come down from Phoenix.|||red daisy, any tuscon bar
I am interested in getting a small suv very soon. I looked at the Honda CRV, Toyota Rav 4 and the Tucson. I am petite (5 feet), I felt the Rav 4 was big and I didn't love the CRV. I liked the look of the Tucson and I felt comfortable in it. You always hear how great Honda and Toyota are and I was wondering how are the Hyundai's. Thank you for your help!|||The 2010 Tucson is a great vehicle and if you like it go for it - you won't be disappointed. I own a 2009 i30 (Elantra Touring in N. America) in Korea and I absolutely love this car.
In 2004, Hyundai tied with Honda for initial brand quality in a survey/study from J.D. Power and Associates, for having 102 problems per 100 vehicles. This made Hyundai second in the industry, only behind Toyota, for initial vehicle quality. The company continued this tradition by placing third overall in J.D. Power's 2006 Initial Quality Survey, behind only Porsche and Lexus. Hyundai/Kia Automotive Group is the world鈥檚 fourth largest automaker (second in Asia) in terms of units manufactured and sold per year and one of the Big Asian Four (with Toyota, Honda and Nissan).
In recent interviews with Toyota executives, they have expressed concerns about Hyundai-Kia and their market share. Hyundai-Kia is the only automobile manufacturer that Toyota fears - and that says something. Kia is also moving up sales rapidly, even quicker than Hyundai due to their improving quality and design (hired the head designer from Audi about two years ago). Hyundai-Kia is the fastest growing foreign brand in China and is the largest exporter of cars in India (Hyundai has plants in both countries). Hyundai-Kia was the only major automaker to sell more vehicles in 2009 than 2008.|||It is a good one. I was at the dealer recently getting an oil change. So, I went up to a man with a TUscon and asked him about the car. He loved it and his wife also liked it very much. The man did not make one complaint about the car.
I have and accent but am considering a TUscon for my ladyfrined when she moves out here. She has a soccer mom truck in her home town, so I think she wants a big vehicle. But TUscon is real nice|||same exact story with us. we're considering the tucson right now. hyundais have really stepped up their game and gotten more competitive. i think it's excellent. great price and gas mileage (and it's cute! :])
QUESTION: when you sat in the tucson, did you notice how the back middle seatbelt was designed? did it come down from the roof of the car? email me if you know thank you!|||It is one of the nicest small SUV's I have driven. Enough power, not to tall, looks good and handles beautifully. I was going to buy an Elantra Touring this summer but I have changed my mind to the new tucson.
Does my landlord have to have a renters license to rent out homes in Tucson Arizona? Do you know any good sites that I can go to? What could happen if they don't have a license when one is required?|||No renters license required by the landlord in Tuscon, AZ|||It all depends on if they are managing property they own or not. Private owners managing their own property are not required to have a license in most states. If they are required all they would typically get is a fine.
If they are doing something wrong then you need to take the proper legal action. Reporting them for the license would just be retaliation & a little petty. Yes, it will get them in trouble but it will not benefit you in anyway.
EDIT: Even if they are renting without a license that is between them & the real estate agency & does not effect you or your lease.
I'm moving from the UK to Tucson and I was wondering how easy is it to get a customer service/banking/admin job there or in the states period? and how much would i be looking at getting? I have 4 years experience but no college degree :(
Thanks|||With four years experience, you probably have a reasonable chance of finding something. Jobs are kind of tough to find these days, so don't get discouraged if you don't find something the first few weeks. Some jobs of the type you listed might require a degree, but most don't. It's probably harder for someone coming into the country to find a job than someone who has already worked here - then again, many people here love British accents, so that might work in your favor. (Once when we visited the UK years ago, one of my daughter's cousins took her to school with her so her friends could hear her American accent, so I guess it's all in the ear of the beholder).
Realize that salary scales might be lower here than in the UK. But costs are lower too. We've visited the UK a number of times, and often the cost in the UK in pounds isn't much different than the US cost in dollars, even though the pound is worth almost twice as much as the dollar.
Salaries in Tucson are somewhat lower than the US average, but depending on the job you'd probably make mid-teens to low 20's thousands of dollars per year.
Tucson is a great place to live. I lived there for four years and really enjoyed it.
Good luck.|||that funny, you need a degree,now days to work at a car wash|||Are you moving legally to the United States of America?|||When I moved to Tucson from Detroit, Michigan I had a really hard time of finding a decent paying job. I have a four-year degree and I found that I was too experienced for most of the jobs. Since you are interested in a customer service related job you probably won't have as tough of a time as I did. There are lots of call centers...AOL being the largest...and they are always hiring and give decent benefits. I worked at VMS, which also advertises job postings a lot. The cost of living is beginning to increase a lot in Tucson and the wages are not being matched. There are too many Californians, retirees and investers flooding the real estate market, thus driving up the cost of the working class. I ended up giving up on Tucson and taking up a job in Phoenix. Good luck!

I have to go from SD to Tucson leaving at 9pm so I'd be driving really late. Is it safe?|||I've driven Interstate 10 many times both day and night and haven't had any problems. I'll assume you have a cell phone in case of a possible breakdown or accident, and an accident is doubtful. It's a good open road especailly at night.

But Phoenix finally grew up at last.It's now so much better than it was before.Will Tucson finally get it at last?|||For one thing, (and I'm convinced of this; it's the conspiracy theorist in me...) the Mafia no longer has the hold on Tucson it once had, and the petty crime in the streets is no longer being policed by them.
For another thing, too many liberals live there and they've junked the place up with their anti-business sentiment and their programs, such as giving free needles to smack addicts so they don't get AIDS. All it did was give the smack addicts a way to shoot their heroin safely, so now there are thousands more of them than there used to be.
I talked with a person high on the roster at the UofA Ag school a couple of years back. (UofA used to be one of the top ag schools in the nation.) Now, it seems, they can no longer hold a class on the main campus. They have to keep to their facility up on Campbell and Limberlost because PETA and other lefty groups don't want them there. They fail to realize that it's a land grant university, and they'll lose federal funding if they continue to shove their ag school farther and farther off the map. Coach Olsen's basketball club can't support the school forever.
Also, the food has gone downhill. I remember great restaurants when I was growing up, but you can't get Mexican food there now -- just that Baja crap. And all the Chinese places have pretty much dried up or gone the way of bad cooking and substandard ingredients. Eegees is about the last food I look forward to when I'm heading for Tucson.
Radio used to be king there. Now KTKT, the former rock station, has turned into yammering heads and Mojo and Betsy aren't even a memory any more on 93.9.
I could go on and on all night, but these are only a few of the reasons why I see Tucson going downhill and have been seeing it for years. The '80s were the last of Tucson's glory days, for sure.

I'm not from Tucson (I'm in Albuquerque) so, I guess I don't count but, here are some ideas of where you might go to find the person you are looking for. If you are going to stay stuck on that age group however, you won't find many in that age at these locations. Try the International Songwriter's Association (ISA), The Songwriter's Guild of America, Nashville Songwriter's Association International (NSAI). There are also the Performance Rights Organizations (PRO). These people pay the songwriters and artists. They are BMI, ASCAP, and SESAC. Those people can likely put you in touch with local songwriters in Tucson. I'm not sure I understand your comment about being "versatile in their style". Most of the writers I know, write in two or three genres only. I personally write in several because I like many different kinds of music ranging from heavy metal to jazz and even including country, rock, pop, and new age. You might also post notices at all of the local music stores in Tucson. I know at Grandma's music and Guitar Center here in Albuquerque, they have bulletin boards where bands who are looking for members and songwriters looking for musicians can find each other. It also pays to ask everyone you come in contact with; "do you know anyone who writes music?" You might also try writing your own music and lyrics. Even if you're not musicians, with today's technology, all you really need is an idea. You can hum or sing the melody into a computer running one of the many recording software programs on the market and then the software can determine the chords and write the music for you. I do that. It saves a lot of time. Then you just need to write some words to go with it. For instance, I asked my granddaughter for a popular phrase that her and her girlfriends say to each other. She replied jokingly "That guy's hot". Well, there you have it. An idea for a song. So, I dinked around on the keyboard a little and tried to imagine what a group of 14 year old girls would say to each other regarding cute guys. and came up with a draft for some lyrics and my granddaughter loves it. It's not finished yet (she's helping me write it now) but, that's how easy it is to come up with an idea for pop music today. You can probably do that yourself right away and end up with better music than some stranger will create for you. If you have not seen it yet, rent the movie "Music and Lyrics" with Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore you might get some good ideas from that movie. Just my 2-cents. But, then I'm over 40 also so go figure on that one. Not a creep though! Good luck to you! We need more talented singers and musicians.

1. The Sonoran Desert Museum is something fun for the whole family. They have lots of great desert animals. Get there as early as possible before it gets hot and all the animals take a nap.

3. The best restaurant in town is Cafe Poca Cosa. It's located in downtown Tucson on Pennington Street. Big lime green parking garage looking building. Anyway, it has great food. I hesitate to call it Mexican food, because it is not what you think. No burritos, tacos, or enchiladas here. Just really good fresh food. Go for lunch to save some money.

If there is a game going on while you are here you definately want to check that out.

phoenix is a great place to be in hope you enjoy it here ;)|||In tucson there is a place you can hike called catalina state park and you can hike up to these waterfalls and pools its really nice there and what my boyfriend and I did when we went to tucson is just saw a place that looked decent and just stopped in and it was really good food, i can't remember the name of it now.
As for Phx!, I'm a born and raised phoenician I would reccomend going to the wild life zoo with you're family, it's a spectacular zoo and they recently opened a large aquarium there. This is alot better then the phx zoo because you can get a lot closer and personal with the animals its great!, you get to see penguins in the desert!
For restaurants, Fudruckers is a popular choice its got just classic american food burgers and all but it's aimed for the children and has a great environment. Living here my whole life and having been only to cali i'm not too sure on a lot of restaurants if they're actually chains or not. You can try Mama's kitchen in glendale its really good food but it looks like a hole in the wall. Also Jimmy Buffets Margaritaville is in Glendale and it has people walking around on stilts so its a fun environment too!
Also along glendale ave, around 55th ave there is a great chocolate factory called cerrta candy co. you can go on a factory tour and have a lot of fun.
As for shops it really depends what your looking for if its native culture I would reccomend parts of downtown Scottsdale they've got rows and rows of shops that have unique and great things to buy. As well as a great art district, you can watch peolpe making glass sculptures blowing them with they're mouths and its really interesting, there is a place called teh sugar bowl thats down there, right along scottsdale rd near both those area's of shops.
You can email me if you have any questions or want to know anything else!
Hope you have fun! =]]

I have 7 days in Tucson, mainly for the Gem show in Feb 08 but, would like to see the Grand Canyon and Tombstone too if possible, if they are not too far away! I am unable to walk far only about a mile, so any tips on tours etc, would be very helpful, thanks.|||It's about a 5-6 hour drive|||Depending upon whether or not you hit snow on the way up there it's about 6 hours
Your best bet is to rent a car and just drive up there. Make sure you get a V-6 in it because you will have 3 major climbs to do and there is no substitute for horsepower
Question :
The way that the road system is set up in GCNP I think that the longest walk you will have from anywhwere that you would park to the Rim would be under 1/4 mi and in most places much closer.
Question:
Since you can only walk a mile can you handle walking at 7500' ?
Everyone I talk to says the weather is really hot for the majority of the year without much of a winter. I live in Sacramento, California and the weather is pretty great here. How different would you say the weather in Tucson is compared to Sacramento?|||Tucson is in the desert. Generally, the weather in the desert is best described as "Hot, hotter and hottest, with torrential rains during the monsoon season". (That's hot in the winter and going up from there.) But those are daytime temperatures. At night, due to the high altitude and little cloud cover, temperatures can go from the 90's and 100's during the day to near freezing at night.
And that white stuff that falls from the sky up North - sNOw - can happen rarely, but you don't need a shovel, just a broom will get it off the walk, but don't orry, it will all be melted by noon. (And nobody there knows how to dreive in the stuff!)
Don't ask about the wildlife, (including 2-legged and 4-legged coyotes), the amount of illegal drugs that go through there, the number of Mexicans who don't have green cards and other problems... 'cause I ain't talking. LOL|||Your city is very wet and mild in the winter and warm and dry in the summer, and Tucson is generally warmer than Sacramento overall, with warmer and drier winters and hotter and wetter summers.
I would like to relocate to Tucson Arizona or vicinity and want to move into an ultra inexpensive place. I have five cats and know parks won't take that many. Does anyone know how I can move and own for a really low cost?|||It would have to be zoned for a trailer, not a house. Honestly I have never seen a trailer around there and I have spend a lot of time in Tucson.
You would need to get an agent to find vacant land zoned for a trailer, or an existing one. The odds are not good.
I want breed my female teacup chihuahua, but can't find a male. I want to now if anyone in Tucson, Arizona has a male that the can lend me or something.|||look online for teacup chihuahua breeders in your area...some might have studs for breeding...i found 3 breeders for pom chis in my area..|||I hope you have over $1,000 saved up for a c-section delivery. Small dogs-- and especially dogs under 4 pounds-- have problems with delivery. Even if the male is small, he could have larger dogs in his pedigree and throw larger pups.
Also you can lose the mother in a complicated delivery.
My vet was telling me about his vet tech who bred her chihuahua. The placenta from the last pup never even got expelled, so it got infected inside of her. I think the cost was around $5,000 in medical bills. The dog lived though.
And chihuahuas are the #2 dog in shelters after pit bulls, so it's not like there aren't plenty of chihuahuas in the world.
I don't think it's a good idea to breed your dog.|||No, Do you know why? Because they do not exist. What BYBs called a "teacup" is a badly bred runt prone to health problems.
No reputable breeder will ever breed dogs that are way to small, its causes way to many problems in health and later in life.
Please read this and research a dog before you get one!
http://www.barkrescue.net/teacup.htm
Oh I though you said you wanted a puppy not you wanted to breed your dog.
and the answer is NO! There are already to many BYBs out there that cause suffering and death because they are selfish and want money. Your dog is to small to be bred if its a "teacup" AKA runt. Have you shown your dog? Did she earn her CH? health testing? etc...etc...etc...you have no business breeding!
http://www.pbrc.net/breeding3.html|||Hi, please read the attached article on breeding chihuahuas before you decide to breed your dog.
I am looking for everyone's general opinion on the Hyundai Tucson. How it looks, drives, handles, or what you have read about it. Thanks.|||Here are 23 user reviews from yahoo auto on the Tucson, its a great place to live by the way!
Fun to drive and good room for dog and golfers. Seats fold flat very easily and the middle armrest serves as a seat for small dog. Sports shift is fun, but the engine power curve needs to be flattened. It seems to bog at lower RPMs|||I have read that it is nothing special. Hyundais get better every year but I think your money is better spent on a CR-V or the new RAV4, if you can spend a little more. Both will be more reliable and retain more value over time. Hyundais in general plummet in value after only a couple of years. If you're looking at a used one, it's probably a good deal because of the 5 year warranty and the poor resale value, but if you're buying new, stay away.
I am going to be transfering to the University of Arizona and my wife is trying to find a job there. My wife's experience is only as a cashier and in daycare.

Will there be less cloud coverage if I live further north or west closer to ocean? Don't want to go into lack of blue sky shock from leaving Tucson. Thanks!|||In the NW we have specific words for rain which you might not be aware of. "Rainy weather" means it rains all day and the sun is not visible. Weather with occasional rain is "showers": that is, intervals of rain mixed with not raining, during which the sky could be overcast, partly clear, or completely clear.
Both types of weather are possible any time of the year, though summer is more apt to have clear sky and winter is more likely to be rainy. Spring and fall are most likely to be showery.
Being further north or west doesn't improve the cloud cover significantly. There is a rain shadow behind the Olympic Range which moves around, but is most often north of Tacoma to South of Seattle. Close to the coast has more fog and low overcast than being further inland.
To increase blue sky, you'd have to be east of the Cascades, though that wouldn't be a practical commute for a Seattle-area job. The Cascades cause orographic lift which leads to adiabatic cooling of the air and heavy precipitation on the mountains. After the air passes over the mountains, it reheats on descent and is much drier. There's a resort near Central Oregon (Kah-nee-tah) which claims 300 sunny days a year.
I am new to Tucson, and I love outdoors activities. I was wondering if anyone could tell me where there are some good trails, with free parking preferably. Looking for things in Tucson, I don't want to do a whole lot of driving. Thanks for any suggestions.|||Hiking is one of the most exciting ways to explore the magic of the Southwest.

I mean it is very horrible what happened in Tucson and I feel for the victims but hey our troops are putting their lives on the line every day and I don't see him giving 2 minutes of silence for each of them. Maybe I missed something.|||Obama has done more to help Veterans in 2 years, than gw did after sending them to into war.
He has also made it more visible to the public,when fallen soldiers return.
gw hid the consequences of war, and his from it. bush gave veterans 8 years of silence!
America uses it's Veterans badly. They are great when people want to flex their muscles, pound their chest, wave a flag and send troops to war. I remember this country well when "Operation Iraqi Freedom" began. People were so proud to send American troops into war.
You don't want to pay for the wounded soldier's return. When they come home with wounds you can't see.
You don't want to care for them, their families that give up their lives to pick up the pieces America drops.
You don't want to hire them, because you WON'T learn anything about PTSD. You get scared.
1 homeless Veteran is 1 too many.
How many does your state have?
You don't want mentally ill people on your streets, in your neighborhoods, but you don't want to pay for programs that make a difference to the afflicted and community alike.
Veterans budgets have been slashed and under funded for years.
Hate Obama all you like for all the reasons you wish, EXCEPT the treatment of Veterans!|||This is a typical human reaction.\
Everybody dies; this is always saddening, but not always so shocking.
You expect soldiers to get killed; they are at war.
You don't expect random defenseless civilians to be gunned down, for no apparent reason, in a public space in the USA.
From the point of view of principle, of course, every person's death is equally important. The purpose of public mourning is more to heal the living than anything else. This is a perfectly valid aim. There's not much we can do for the dead.
The soldiers do, of course, deserve special honor for volunteering to risk their lives.|||Hint about history. Obama had nothing to do with getting us involved in the quagmire of Afghanistan or Iraq. He is trying to get us out of that mess though.|||with the fact he is a muslim and his family backs the terrorist. he is not a fan of the war or the troops fighting it. it's to close to home for him. he is the face of evil!|||a soldier volunteers to wear a uniform, take up arms, and put their lives 'in harm's way'

I just moved to Tucson from the midwest, and I am curious about the small lizards that run around all over the place. They're very small, just a few inches long from head to the end of their tails, and they like to hang out around the rocks in my backyard and on the bricks on the house, but I see them all over town - parking lots, on the sides of buildings, rummaging around rocks and stuff. Anyone know what species they are?|||I live in Tucson, too. The ones that hang around my house (all over my porch) are Geckos. I love them, they're so little and cute. Like these ones http://www.southwesternherp.com/lizards/鈥?/a> or this one http://wc.pima.edu/Bfiero/tucsonecology/鈥?/a>
There's also tons of lizards running all over the neighborhood that I would call "regular lizards", but they do have real names, like Tree Lizard http://wc.pima.edu/Bfiero/tucsonecology/鈥?/a> Greater Earless Lizard http://wc.pima.edu/Bfiero/tucsonecology/鈥?/a> and the Side-Blotched Lizard http://www.reptilesofaz.org/Lizards-Subp鈥?/a> Everytime I take my dog for a walk, we see at least 10 lizards run across the sidewalk in front of us. I'm pretty sure most are Tree Lizards or Greater Earless Lizards.
The other day I saw a Spiny Lizard across the street. That was the first time I had seen one of those. http://wc.pima.edu/Bfiero/tucsonecology/鈥?/a>
We also once saw a Horned Lizard near the wash by our home. Stay away from these, they squirt blood from their eyes to ward off predators (or people or dogs)! http://wc.pima.edu/Bfiero/tucsonecology/鈥?/a>

My cousin is moving to Tucson and we are driving so we wandered what would be the best way to get there. Any suggestions?|||Your question is an oxymoron. The fastest route is not the most interesting route.
I drove from Philly to Tucson in 2002 by the most interesting route which was not very fast.
The most interesting route is down the Skyline Drive, Blud Ridge Parkway on down to the Smokies Park going across TN and down the Natchez Trace, crossing the Mississippi at Natchez, heading across Texas through Lufkin, Waco, San Angelo and on up to Hobbs, NM to Alamogordo to Lourdsburg and into AZ taking 80S into Douglas, Bisbee and Tombstone before hitting Tucson.

I am living at Tucson, AZ and here I noticed that I am losing my hair, and my skin is too dry.

So I started looking at Hyundai's and decided that the Tuscon was more suitable for us than the Santa Fe. Bought it at what I think was a very nice price. It has a lot of safety features. It has a relatively simple V6 engine. The automatic transmission is a little less advanced than some, I don't think it includes an overdrive which would be nice. But the vehicle runs strong, carries a full load without problems and delivers over 25 mpg. It has a very good factory warranty. I think we made a good choice and I would recomend it to anyone else in the market for an SUV|||Buy the Tucson with confidence, assuming of course, that it meets your needs. Change the oil, follow the maintenance schedule to the letter, and you'll have a nice clean vehicle for the next 100K. The Hyundai basher is not accurate in his statements.|||Hyundai is kickass. They've been named "The Next Toyota or Honda." I have owned 2 Hyundais and my dad has owned a Sonata since 2002 and my mom just bought the Entourage, and we LOVE them. They're very comfortable, roomy, and great on gas. They're pretty cheap but definitely don't seem that way. I would definitely at least test drive it and talk to someone at the dealership before making a call on it.|||dont listen to people who bash on hyundai he prob owns a honda obviously lol, hyundai is a good company my dad has the sonata its one of the nicest cheap cars ive been in and driven, ive been on jaguars, bmw's, mercedes and 2007 hyundai line is just as nice|||no offense, but whoever that is, you have a person who doesn't know anything about brand and a car. Hyundai Tucson is the top quality in small SUV in the world. And i think the way your friend said was that maybe he like like big and muscle car?? well if you like this small cars, then Tucson will be right for you. oh and advantage is that : small, good mileage, top quality, and reliability. Disadvantage is :small, low hp, and not enough room well hope this helps|||who says hyundais are terrible cars even these days? There are so many articles and awards for hyundai's success, and they are great great cars. I believe they have stepped up to any japanese maker's level back in 03 or 04.

If you have money then i wouldnt reccomend you getting it. Hyundais are known to be problematic. They claim that they arent anymore but i still see new hyundais at the junkyard. I would reccomend that you get something reliable like a Honda CRV, Toyota RAV 4, GMC Acadia, Chevy Equinox, or Pontiac Torrent
I will be moving to Tucson, Arizona (The southeast side) in September. What is the average cost in utilities for a small 2/3 bedroom house? There will be 2 adults and a toddler. Hopefully we can use a fan to beat the heat moreso than the air. Trying to put together a budget.
Thanks!|||It all depends on how low you put the thermostat and what kind of cooling system you have. The geneal rule of thumb is that an evaperative cooler uses about 1/4 of the energy as an A/C unit. I used to be able to run my evap cooler half of the day in a small but drafty 1920s house for about $40 per month. Since moving to a larger and more energy efficient house with A/C, my bill was closer to $100 but I also keep the thermostat in the low to mid 80s all day.
Figure for most average size houses you are looking at $75-$100 per month. If you have a historic house then the cost will probably be $25-$50 higher due to the air leaks and construction materials used.
I am going to throw a big 16 party and the eastside tucson hotel Hilton is the best spot and I was wondering how much it woulf cost?|||There usually isn't a set price for something like that because there are too many variables, the number of rooms you might need, dining options, etc. You best bet is to submit and RFP through their website and you should get a response from the hotel.|||I really have no idea, but Happy B-Day!

I am traveling with my young son to Tucson in March to visit family for a few days. We have a few days to ourselves and were looking for other things to do. We'll be at the pool (if it's warm enough) and already have tickets to Spring Training baseball. Any other suggestions?|||I lived in Tucson for over 20 years and raised two kids there. Eight months old is a little young, but here are a few ideas he might enjoy anyway.
Reid Park and the Reid Park Zoo. If you're from a large city the zoo in Tucson is not really large or impressive, but it's nice. These days they have enough shade along the walkways for the little ones and the Tigers are beautiful. When my kids were little they could spend an hour just watching the otters playing. As soon as you leave the zoo, there's a nice park you're in the middle of. There's a pond with paddle boats and a lot of ducks you can feed and just have a lazy day. March weather there will be nice with just a sweater --if that.
The Arizona Sonora Desert Museum is great for adults and kids of all ages. It's basically a zoo of desert animals and a museum with some cool displays on geology in the area. If you get a chance to see one of the talks about snakes in the area or be there on a busier day when the docents have some of the animals you can touch out it's really fun. Make the time to go to that talk or see all the fun touchables. Also, the food is decent at the small restrauntant to the left of the entrance. Warning! Do not be taken in by that taxidermy museum of wildlife that's on the way to the desert museum. That is NOT what you want to go to. Drive right on past it to the Desert Museum.
If you do any big shopping days I'd suggest Park Mall since there's a nice play area where he can play with some really little kids and you can sit and take a break.
I can't think of a lot else for a child that small. There are some other things you might like and your child might sleep through --the Center for Creative Photography at UA campus. They always have something interesting going on there.
If the UA women's softball team is playing then it's worth going. The games are fast-moving and exciting. My kids always loved watching that --but they were a little older.
When he gets a bit older I could suggest some great hikes where you can look back over the city at the top --like Pontatoc Ridge and a few hikes up Wasson Peak. I guess if he's still small enough for you to carry him in a kid-pack this could still be fun. You'll be there at a time of year that's not too bad weather-wise.
I hope some of this was helpful.
Take care,
Cyndy|||There's lots of fun things to do in the Tucson area! How about some of these?

I'm looking to plant a garden in tucson this summer but i'm not sure what flowers can survive in this type of weather with minimal attention paied to them. Any ideas?|||You should contact your county extension office, they should have a list of ideal plants like we in Cochise County have. We are at a higher elevation here (4600') so my plant list won't do for your elevation of 2000-3000'.
You, for instance, can plant citrus trees outside. We can't. And I love lime trees in bloom! You can grow Bougainvilleas, we have more difficulty with that plant.
If the focus is on "minimal attention" then I'd suggest stick with a xeriscaped plan, a collection of low-water and drought-tolerant plants.
Tucson is so beautiful in the spring when all the plants are in bloom!|||Succulents flowers too same with some cactus, crassulas and euphorbias. I'm trying to follow the trend of minimizing use of water so I built a 6x6 square patch on my lawn, dug the grass and line it with vinyl/plastic then cover with sand.

My partner and I would like to have a baby. And, wanted to know how much artificial insemination cost in Tucson, Arizona? And, if you know of any good doctors and where they are located? Thanks so much. :)|||We would need more info to be able to give you an estimate.
The cost of artificial insemination can vary greatly - will you be doing a medicated cycle? Would it be with something like Clomid or injectibles? What sort of monitoring would the doctor do regarding blood tests and ultrasounds? Will you be purchasing donor sperm or do you have a partner or known donor? When you say artificial insemination, are you talking about an IUI or IVF?
Basically an IUI can cost anywhere from several hundred to several thousand dollars (injectible fertility medications alone can cost a few thousand dollars) and IVF (where they take extra steps to remove the eggs and fertilize them in the lab) would be $12,000+ on average.
It would be best to meet with a fertility specialist, have a check up, see what they recommend and go from there - cost at different clinics can also vary widely.
Here is a great site that you can visit to look up clinics in the US and success rates:

Good luck!|||Have you thought of using fsdw? It's subscription but quite cheap, not sure what it'd be in $ but it costs me 拢20 a month. My boyfriend and I (he's infertile) met with several men who had signed up to be free donors before settling on one who was a good match for us. Our one is actually a clinic registered donor so we know he's had std checks etc but obv there is more risk with fresh sperm. The success rates are higher than frozen though. You could ask them to donate to a clinic if you'd prefer frozen.|||5-10000
There are books and web stuff that can help.

In 1916, Pancho Villa ordered an attack on the town of Columbus, New Mexico, USA. In short, 84 people were killed. There is now a statue of him in a park in downtown Tucson. American hero or terrorist? I say terrorist. Maybe in 80 or 90 years we can erect a statue commemorating Osama bin Laden.|||do a Bart Simpson and cut off his head|||Tucson has way more bigger problems than a statue dingleberry - that town is a **** hole!! Report Abuse
|||this reason lacks the vindication to label Pancho Villa as a terrorist. You get mad at this, but nobody gets mad when they mention that in 1848 when James K. Polk through his own greed wanted to buy California, New Mexico, and other territories from Mexico. And when Mexico refused he got pissed off and forced Mexico to attack the United States in order to declare war. Mexico wanted no part in this whatsoever, but they were forced by the US. what do you call that?
We, as Mexicans, hold Pancho Villa as a national hero because he led the Northeners in the Mexican Revolution against the dictatorship of Porfirio Diaz in 1911 just like George Washington is seen as a national hero for leading the American Revolution in 1776 against the British.|||You could have people sign a petition and send it to the city mayor or someone like that and make sure you include a good reason why?|||Tear it the %*^& down.
That is not cool.....I don't remember seeing a Hitler statue.
I'm with you.
We will be going to Tucson and I wanted to know what some of the good places that other people enjoy/enjoyed there.|||Old Tucson is one place..its a cowboy town, where some famous movies have been made, the "mission" a very large church area out in the dessert, lots of indian background..there is also the tucson zoo..pretty nice place, not as big as the phx zoo. but its enjoyabel|||http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuscon%2C_A鈥?/a>
I want to visit a friend who is currently studying at the University of Arizona. I don't have a car, nor much money. I'd like to know the easiest perhaps safest way to get to Tucson via public transportation.|||Spending a lot of money to fly 100 miles doesn't make sense. The least expensive way is Greyhound bus. If you choose this option purchase your ticket online at "www.greyhound.com".
As you make your reservation you will come to the "Schedules" page. Select your trip ONLY from the 7:50 am, 5:20 pm, or 9:40 pm departures.. ALL other departure times are contracted out to various Mexican based bus companies whose equipment, and drivers may not meet the same safety standards Greyhound owned equipment, and trained drivers must meet.
The trip times range from 2 to 2 1/2 hours, and the fares from $18.00 to $24.00 each way. The various shuttle companies cost roughly the same, and they will only transport you from airport to airport.|||You can fly from Phoenix to Tucson
there are also shuttles
I am currently renting a room in California. Basicly, all I pay is my phone bill (plus rent). I do contribute pay for utility bills, but the amount depends on how much I use.
I am about to get an apartment in Tucson Arizona. I got two options:
1. 600/month apartment (water included)
2. 600/ month apartment (electricity included)
Which one should I take?
And how much more would I need for other expenses?|||I live near downtown in a duplex and my bills are as follows:
$45/month cable internet from Cox (so much nicer than Quest DSL)
$30-$60/month electricity (I tend to spend more in the winter because I am in an older house which is really nicely ventilated in the summer, but horrible in the winter. Swamp coolers are much cheaper than A/C)
$20-$30/month gas (it is for my water heater and stove/oven)
Water is free for me, but I don't know of any landlords in town who charge for water. When I lived in a bottom floor apartment, the heat and A/C were cheaper because my neighbors helped insulate the place. Generally, if you can make do with it being colder in the winter and warmer in the summer, a cheaper place with the electricity not included is a good bet. However, since your two options are the same price, I would go for the one with the electricity included.|||well get electricity paid so you an crank up the AC. you gotta pay: gas electric, water, garbage, rent, food. phone, internet, cable. some are optional, some not. good luck
im planning to stay in glendale for 5 days, and get around phoenix for another 2 days, then planning to go to Tucson for another sightseeing. From then, i will travel north, heading to the Grand Canyon.
How many hours will it take me to get to the Grand Canyon? Coz right after that, i'll cross Nevada and California as well, and i only have 20 days to make up this tour. Thanks in advance!|||6 to 6.5 hours depending on how many times you stop for gas and to eat.|||Your looking around 5-6 hours!|||it is 345 miles to gc from 2son az it will take you 5 hr and 31 min. least that is what map quest tells me.|||You really are looking at 5-6 hours depending on traffic in the Phoenix area. Make sure you look to your left to see the Sedona Red Rocks as you go up the I-17.|||About 6 hours. It's a pretty boring ride until you get past Phoenix, then it's get's interesting. Very "mountainy" and scenic. You definitely need to have both hands on the wheel at that point. I just went that way last week. ( to the Grand Canyon from Tucson )|||Checkout this website http://tucson.nyctourist.com/

I just got a leaf blower. I think it has a vacuum function as well, but it seems so much easier to just blow the leaves into the street for the street sweeper to pick them up. Is that illegal? I live in Tucson.|||It's not legal and it's not propper. How often does the streets sweeper come? Consider the street as your living room. Keep it clean.
MD|||Where I live it's illegal. The street sweeper only come through twice a week. It's better to blow them into a corner and bag for collection or make compost.|||no it ok
Hi, my gf and i are trying to drive from tucson arizona to vancouver washington and are planning on leaving the day after christmas. we heard that the I-5, which every site tells us to take, closes in the winter due to snow so we obviously need an alternate route. any help?|||the only place I 5 can close is in the mountains between oregon and cali . just plane to drive that part around ten in the morning and read the electric road signs on the way. They up date every 20 minutes
If its a bad winter the roads in Nevada will be worse.|||I'm from Tacoma, WA. We get very little snow in December. You shouldn't have any problem if you stick to I-5. If there happens to be any snow, you'll hit it about mid-Oregon, and I-5 being the major route that it is, there will be deicer trucks all over the place. Don't worry. You'll make it just fine.|||I5 is probably your best bet since it is a major interstate. You may run into some delays, but you will be able to get threw ok. Like others have said, if you go down threw NV, you might run into some problems since they are not major roads and some may be closed.
I have a 10 year old daughter who is very energetic and bores easily. We will be on vacation in Tucson during the last week of March.|||If you're staying at a hotel, hopefully there will be a pool there, and a concierge to ask about good places to go, or at least a bunch of brochures to look over and decide. There is an area I think to the east of the city that has good hiking (might be a National Park or state park of some sort - I can't remember). Also, if you're driving there from Phoenix, there is a cool ostrich farm between the two cities, and I believe closer to Tucson. They have parrots there, too. I wish I could help more, but I don't live there and haven't been there in quite a while. Good luck!|||There are over 101 Things To Do In Tucson!

Is there a supplier in Tucson that caters to people feeding raw diets? Or should I just buy the stuff from my local grocery store? Anyone else in Tucson doing raw diet?|||Here you go-
The Tucson Raw Feeders Co-op
http://www.tucsonraw.com/
cathy@tucsonraw.com
Tucson Raw was founded in September of 2002 by less than a dozen members.
We worked together to make feeding raw foods to our animals cost efficient and convenient.
Since then we have grown to over 200 members and have access to 27 different items on a monthly basis.|||Here's a Yahoo Group for raw feeders in Phoenix & Tucson. If you apply to join the group, they probably can point you towards suppliers, feeding info. etc.
http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/RedAn鈥?/a>|||Look on the Natures Variety web site for a store that stocks their food. It's a great food and very easy to feed raw with it.
The maps are all unclear on the as they don't show specific locations of towns and cities. Tucson seems to be on the border of Zone 8 and 9.|||I can't believe no one has bothered to answer your question as of yet. Oh well, here goes ...
I use the Zone Finder map and tools available on the "Jerry Baker - America's Master Gardener" website. You are right, the map alone is sometimes confusing, and it is sometimes hard to tell the actual zone you are in. This website uses your Zip Code to pinpoint your USDA hardiness zone. I don't live in Tucson, but I have visited several times over the years. I remember 22nd Street so I based my search on that street. I went to the USPS Zip Code lookup website and picked 85713. Plugging it into the Jerry Baker site indicates that it is in USDA hardiness zone 8A.
Your hardiness zone may be different, so you might want to plug in your own zip code. Here is a link to the Jerry Baker site:
