Views are amazing! We loved this drive from Phoenix to Sedona. Red Rocks are something to see if you haven't already (or even if you have)
Views are amazing! We loved this drive from Phoenix to Sedona. Red Rocks are something to see if you haven't already (or even if you have)
We enjoyed this loop, but I would suggest NOT going in the morning as the sun is directly in the front of any photos.. best around 3pm. Start at the east entrance and loop to the south and west.
Photos don't do it justice. Spectacular views. Go at sunrise or sunset for the best effect. Not to busy in January so good time to go. Dress warmly.
Drove down 179 back to Phoenix. nice ride and the road is in great shape. Northbound would have been prettier, but we were headed back to Phoenix after leaving Sedona.
This is one of the most beautiful places on earth. If you are lucky enough to see it for the first time on a sunny day with bright blue skies, you will never forget the experience.
If you;ve never been to Sedona stop at the vistors center and take there tips seriously, thanks Gary for the two great hikes. any drive in Sedona is a scenic one.
Just love to drive slow and enjoy every minute with the red rocks. They are majestic and beautiful. There are lots of places to get off and take pictures, walk paths and just "be" in nature.
A beautiful drive into the canyon. Many scenic view stop offs. Awesome views of the red rocks and famous rock formation. Definitely worth a drive.
A must do! Make sure you stop at the pull-offs to snap some great pictures and do some hiking. Hiking at stops are fairly easy and allow wonderful pictures!
The traffic is usually heavy, so don't plan to rush this drive. The views are worth it - probably only of the most beautiful spots on earth! There are fees for parking so stop on your way in and get a permit.

Snyder proposing 3% more for K-12
Gov. Rick Snyder this week will propose spending roughly 3 percent more on K-12 public education next school year, a step he said would increase state-based funding of schools by more than $1 billion since he took office three years ago.
The governor told The Associated Press that his planned school aid budget would include an average $100 increase in Michigan's per-pupil grant, with the lowest-funded districts receiving $111 more and better-funded districts getting an extra $83. The state also will continue covering more retirement costs instead of including the money in districts' traditional per-student aid.
The lump payment to pension and retiree health care — along with previous changes that made current school workers and retirees pay more for their benefits — mean districts will save an average $820 per student in the fiscal year starting in October, Snyder said.
"If someone showed up to help you pay your mortgage, doesn't that give you more dollars to pay your other bills?" he said in an interview with the AP. "So that's the point — it really does help in the classroom by helping pay a bill that they're otherwise going to have to pay and reducing that bill."
Democrats have accused Snyder and Republican lawmakers of slashing school funding. But the state's K-12 spending — excluding federal, preschool and adult education funding — has increased every year of his term from $10.7 billion to $11.4 billion, according to the state budget office. It would rise $322 million overall in the 2014-15 budget, or 2.8 percent, and by $430 million overall counting all K-12 funds, or 3.2 percent.
The minimum grant would rise from $7,076 to $7,187, the maximum from $8,049 to $8,132. That equates to 1 percent to 1.5 percent more depending on the district, not including the state payment to the Michigan Public School Employees Retirement System.
"We're trying to reduce that disparity," Snyder said.
While state spending has risen, it largely has helped to offset lost federal stimulus aid that ended when Snyder took office and to meet growing unfunded retirement liabilities from the 2008-09 market collapse and a 2010 early-retirement incentive for school employees.
Superintendents have complained there is not much left for the classroom and districts are receiving less given declining enrollment. Under Snyder'sproposed budget, traditional per-pupil grants would still remain below their levels from 2010-11, the last budget approved by former Democratic Gov. Jennifer Granholm.
And workers have protested lower effective wages after being forced to pay more toward retirement.
Snyder, who is officially launching his re-election campaign this week and has drawn fire from likely Democratic opponent Mark Schauer for past education cuts, said he should not be blamed for one-time federal money drying up and argued that districts are in better shape because of changes to the retirement system.
With districts' retirement costs capped at 26 percent of payroll, the state covers the balance — $450 a student next year, according to Snyder. Districts will save an additional $370 per student next year from the 2012 overhaul of employees' pension and health benefits.
"They would have had to pay a much higher number but for the fact we did this," Snyder said. "Just think about the trauma that would have created in the system."
Districts could continue qualifying for additional funding of technology upgrades or if they meet "best practices" ($52 per student) in Snyder's budget, which he will present to lawmakers Wednesday. He also wants to set aside $35 million for a revamped teacher and administrator evaluation system and $2 million to help more low-performing schools switch to year-round classes.
As expected, Snyder will seek an extra $65 million so 16,000 low-income children no longer have to be on a waiting list for financial help to attend preschool.
Budget director John Nixon said he still expects some to say the proposed K-12 funding increase is too little.
"I hope they would be delighted," he told the AP. "We've got a great product. We've got a great budget. It's defensible, the revenue's growing and we're making strategic investments."

The Yankees obtained third baseman Casey McGehee from Pittsburgh for reliever Chad Qualls on Tuesday, giving them a right-handed batter to plug in while Alex Rodriguez and Mark Teixeira recuperate from hand injuries.
McGehee, 29, is hitting .230 with eight homers and 35 RBI in almost 300 plate appearances. The 33-year-old Qualls was acquired by New York from Philadelphia on July 1 and pitched in eight games.
The AL East-leading Yankees expect to fill his spot in the bullpen with Joba Chamberlain. He was set to make a rehab start at Double-A Trenton on Tuesday night, but was told to head to the Bronx after the deal was done just before the 4 p.m. deadline for trades without waivers.
Rodriguez is on the disabled list after breaking a bone in his hand when he was hit by a pitch last week. Teixeira received a cortisone shot Tuesday, a day after leaving a game against Baltimore.

Recent Success Stories
A late Saturday evening back in September 2011, Glen sent a JDate message to Alison all the way from Tallahassee, FL to Atlanta, GA. Glen was sure there was something about the girl in those pictures with the beautiful red hair. He had a feeling that she was "The One."
Mark is the love of my life. He's everything I ever wanted in a man and so many things I didn't dare to want. He's the other side of my coin – different, but complementary. We didn't run in the same circles, and never would have discovered how oddly similar we are, if not for JDate. So thank you JDate for helping me to meet my modern-day knight in shining armor!
Daniel makes me excited for things I never thought would excite me: a wedding, family, and family vacations. I've never felt so loved, loved anyone so much, or felt so secure. I feel so lucky. You got me a good one, JDate. We'll toast to you at the wedding!
I still think my husband got off too easy (he only had to go on one JDate… come on!), but I'm so happy we found each other.
Amir was an amazing boyfriend and is now a great husband. I love him so much! I want to thank JDate for making it possible to meet my Beshert. I hope many other happy couples will follow!
When Shari relocated to Sacramento, her parents encouraged her to look into JDate. At the same time, Andy's friends signed him up for JDate as he had just relocated to Sacramento for work.
Alex is the love of my life and I cannot wait to join his amazing Ukrainian family. I've even been learning Russian! Thank you JDate for connecting me with the most amazing man and family possible. I wish more Jewish singles in St. Louis took the risk I did!
They lived a mere eight miles from each other, but may not have met had it not been for JDate. Jonathan was immediately taken by Helene as she walked through the entrance of the café; Helene was pleased with the big smile on the face of her JDate selection.
I figured the only way I could find out whether our match would be negative or positive was to extend my JDate subscription for another month, which turned out to be the best decision I ever made.
Jillian and Ben met on JDate! They talked a few times, but never got together. Then Jillian "disappeared" for a few months. When Jillian finally returned to JDate, Ben decided to give her another try.

Raptors: Nuggets' Masai Ujiri mulling 'lucrative' offer from MLSE
NBA executive of the year Masai Ujiri, the front-runner for the Toronto GM job, is weighing whether to join the Raptors or remain in Denver.
A life-changing decision is not reached easily and there will be no quick resolution to the Raptors' search for a new general manager.
Masai Ujiri, who was the front-runner for the job even before it became officially vacant, is mulling over offers to take the Raptors post once held by one of his mentors, Bryan Colangelo, or to remain as the top basketball decision-maker with the Denver Nuggets.
"Not today," a league source said Saturday. "Next couple of days."
Ujiri spent most of Friday meeting with incoming Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment CEO Tim Leiweke and left with what other NBA sources called a "lucrative" multi-year, multi-million-dollar contract that could almost triple his Denver salary.
But the Nuggets have offered Ujiri a "substantial" raise on a three-year contract that expires at the end of June.
According to one NBA source, Ujiri made about $500,000 on the last year of his Nuggets contract and could be in line for a significant raise; the Raptors are offering a deal in the neighbourhood of $1.5 million annually, sources contend.
"They (the Nuggets) are trying to keep him," said one person with knowledge of the negotiations.
The Toronto salary, according to sources, is far greater than the Denver offer but other factors will go into any decision made by the 42-year-old Ujiri, who spent three seasons in Toronto as an assistant general manager and director of global scouting.
Not the least of those will be Ujiri's fit in a revamped Toronto front office where Colangelo is now serving solely as the team's president without any final say on basketball matters.
Ujiri has long considered Colangelo and Raptors senior advisor Wayne Embry as two of his biggest mentors and supporters, and returning to an organization to usurp Colangelo as the chief basketball decision-maker might be an issue.
Leiweke made it abundantly clear in a conference call with reporters last week that Colangelo may consult with the new general manager on basketball matters but only at the invitation of the GM, who would have the ultimate call on all personnel matters.
That would be the direct opposite of the working relationship Ujiri and Colangelo had during their time together with the Raptors.
Ujiri also has close ties to the Nuggets' father-and-son ownership duo of Stan and Josh Kroenke, who hired him away from Toronto and watched as he became the current NBA executive of the year.
The only rush on a Ujiri decision would be for his own peace of mind. Leiweke and the Raptors — who have a group of frankly underwhelming possibilities behind Ujiri in their wish list — say they are in no hurry to find a replacement for Colangelo.
But Ujiri, according to league sources, doesn't want to take longer than a couple of days on a life-altering decision out of fairness to both organizations.

Paradise lost: Persia from above
Swiss photographer Georg Gerster undertook a dangerous mission to capture the beauty of Iran from the air on film, sticking his camera out a of a plane to do so
Tuesday 05 April 2011
Pioneer in aerial photography Georg Gerster, who captured stunning images of 1970s Iran from the air, explains how he came to undertake such a perilous and rewarding photographic journey.
A gift such as this is received only once in a lifetime.
Flying on business over Iran, I had been struck by the thought that Persia's natural and cultural landscape was predestined to be viewed from the air, with its salt deserts, gardens like slices of paradise, and waterless wind-sculpted wastelands. Its settlements are textbook examples of architecture without an architect, and the qanats, underground aqueducts, form graphic patterns. The idea of the bird's eye view certainly wasn't incongruous: the Homa, half eagle, half bird of paradise, is a mythical beast of Persian mythology, a harbinger of good fortune. On 12 October 1975 I delivered a letter by hand to the imperial court in Tehran, suggesting that I should produce a book, 'Persia through the eyes of the Homa'.
The response from Tehran was encouraging: Empress Farah expressed a hope that the aerial views of her country would be enriching, both artistically and philosophically. The chief of her private cabinet suggested that the autumn of the coming year would be particularly suitable for taking aerial pictures. I felt that the promise was too vague, however, so I suggested that Empress Farah should appoint a coordinator to oversee the smooth running of the venture. For a while I heard nothing from Tehran. I felt a little uneasy about this silence. Had I lost a unique opportunity? Had I pushed my luck too far? To my great relief, towards the end of December 1975 I had better news: an Iranian acquaintance called me and invited me to come and speak with him. The next morning in Vienna, Dr Ali Asghar Azizi got straight to the point: 'What kind of aeroplane do you want us to buy for you?'
Empress Farah had handed the project over to Iran Air, which was appropriate as the airline uses the mythical Homa as its logo. Dr Azizi, its chief public relations officer, was to be my contact. An aeroplane was not bought for me, but I was given unlimited access to a twin engined Britten-Norman BN 2 'Islander' from the Imperial Aero Club. I undertook all flights with an expert on the region, German archaeologist Dr Dietrich Huff. He would take his seat at the front behind the two pilots, while my position was in the tail of the aircraft, next to a gaping hole where the cargo door normally would be.
My position for taking photographs, half sitting, half lying, couldn't exactly be described as comfortable, but I had an almost clear field of view, with just a hazy marginal vortex caused by the hot exhaust from the engines. There was no sensible way of conversing with my archaeological guide in the cockpit, however – trying to shout over the noise of the engines through the open doorway was of little use. So the captain simply switched off the engines. Thankfully, the 'Islander', with its broad wings, glides to some extent. Nonetheless such conferences over the wilderness of the Iranian desert mountains filled me with terror. The captain was not unaware of this. He would, now and then, simply switch the engines on and off, just for a laugh.
Between 11 April 1976 and 30 May 1978, I made more than a hundred flights, completing 300 flying hours. Our planning took into consideration the change of the seasons, as far as was possible, which brought some wonderful discoveries: spring in the Azarbayjan highlands is one of the most beautiful spectacles this earth has to offer. We wanted to cover every part of the country, which almost overstretched the range and capabilities of our aircraft – it took several attempts to cross the Alborz mountains.
All my pilots were well-trained flyers, although I found one or two of them more inclined to buffoonery than was good for them. The young man who crucified me wantonly by switching off the engines was a particularly mischievous aviator. One time, for fun and simply to show off, he landed on the busy Tehran-Mashhad highway. He was also somewhat lacking in map reading skills: several times he flew us into the Soviet Union. This pilot was due to be questioned over his misdemeanours before an Iranian court martial, but before this could take place, he collided with another aircraft at an air show – a victim of his own fatal penchant for skylarking.
The upheavals in Iran put an end to my photographic flights, and the planned book had to wait thirty years.

Squirrel Hill rabbi declares 'important victory for religious freedom'
A Squirrel Hill rabbi says an agreement with state officials affirming the right of clergy and congregations to perform rites for the dead is a victory for religious freedom.
Rabbi Daniel Wasserman, who filed papers Monday settling the federal lawsuit he filed in August, said it was important that the agreement extend to all religions.
"I didn't want something that applied only to me," said Wasserman, 47, head of Shaare Torah Congregation.
In August, Wasserman sued the state Board of Funeral Directors and two Pennsylvania Department of State officials in U.S. District Court in Scranton, claiming they violated his religious right to conduct traditional Jewish burials.
Wasserman said the board twice since 2010 investigated him for performing burial rites in violation of state law governing the funeral home industry. It requires a licensed funeral director to be involved in embalming and cosmetic services, among other things.
Wasserman accused the board of taking actions to financially protect the funeral home industry by using a law that did not apply to him, because he does not embalm bodies or charge for services.
No charges were filed, but Wasserman claimed the threat of fines and possible jail time had a chilling effect on people exercising their religious freedom.
"I said all along that what we are doing is right and legal," Wasserman said. "The only ones who couldn't see it were the funeral directors blinded by their desire to protect their revenue stream."
No one admitted wrongdoing in the settlement. Officials with the state and funeral directors industry did not view the deal as harming their authority or position.
"As the memorandum memorializes, the funeral board will continue its past practices," said Ron Ruman, a spokesman for the Department of State. "As per the memorandum, the board has never discriminated against anyone's religion and never will."
The settlement did little to alter business for the funeral industry, said John Eirkson, executive director of the Pennsylvania Funeral Directors Association.
"We don't see anything new or different," he said. "As long as someone isn't profiting under the auspices of religion, I don't think there is a problem."
Imam AbduSemih Tadese of the Islamic Center of Pittsburgh in Oakland supported the resolution to Wasserman's lawsuit.
"This is a good day for the system the founding fathers put together when it comes to exercising our religious freedoms," Tadese said. "The issue in the past was the fact there was no clear line drawn between what was religious and what was not. ... It's very easy now for people who want to exercise those rights to do so."
According to the settlement, any complaints that could involve religious burial rites will go first to prosecutors with the state Board of Professional and Occupational Affairs before any investigation begins.
The state agreed to train its workers about rights related to performing religious burials and to notify licensed funeral directors about the new enforcement procedures.
No financial arrangements were included in the court filing, and Wasserman said he could not discuss any settlement terms.
The Tribune-Review filed Right to Know requests with the Department of State and attorney general's office, which defended the state in the lawsuit.

A Brazilian Christmas
When you are travelling for an extended period of time it's sometimes difficult to predict where you will be on a certain date and often your plans change along the way. However there is always an outline plan, and when in July my sister Miranda said "where will you be at Christmas, James and I want to come and visit you" we quickly and fairly roughly came up with "Brazil".

Predicting early academic achievement in a baccalaureate nursing program.
Oakland University School of Nursing, Rochester, MI 48309, USA.
Journal of Professional Nursing (Impact Factor: 0.88). 01/2007; 23(3):144-9. DOI: 10.1016/j.profnurs.2006.07.001 Source: PubMed

ABSTRACT: As medical knowledge and technology becomes more complex, twenty-first century nurses are required to possess an advanced understanding of many bioscience concepts. It is now recognised that without this advanced knowledge, nurses will not be sufficiently prepared to deal with the intellectual and technological demands of today, let alone the future. While the importance of bioscience education to nursing practice has been long recognised, nursing students, as a group, have a well documented struggle with science subjects. This struggle has been largely attributed to the lower university entrance scores required for nursing courses and a lack of previous science study. However, as in any complex system, a multitude of factors are likely to be responsible for the difficulty faced by many nursing students in their science studies. In this paper, we argue that a lack of engagement with science early in a student's life can significantly influence student's feelings towards science subjects, the achievement goals that they set themselves, and their interest in learning science. Given the wealth of evidence that high-school students are avoiding science-based subjects, low levels of engagement with science and high-levels of anxiety towards science-based subjects are issues increasingly faced by tertiary science educators. As such, understanding the science background of students, and improving their attitudes and feelings towards science, is a critical first step in helping nursing students learn the science required for their future practice. 'To practice safely and effectively, today's new nurses must understand a range of nursing knowledge and science, from normal and pathological physiology to genomics, pharmacology, biochemical implications of laboratory medicine for the patient's therapies, the physics of gas exchange in the lungs, cell-level transport of oxygen for the acutely ill patient, as well as the human experience of illness and normal growth and development – and much more.'International Journal of Innovation in Science and Mathematics Education. 01/2013; 21(2):26-36. - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Accurately predicting NCLEX-RN® success has a positive impact on all nursing education stakeholders. This study focused on the ability to predict NCLEX-RN pass rates on the basis of prenursing academic aptitude variables and the Assessment Technologies Institute (ATI) nursing aptitude program. The ATI predictors were the Test of Essential Academic Skills (TEAS) and fi ve ATI subject tests: Fundamentals, Medical Surgical, Nursing Care of Children, Mental Health, and Maternal Newborn. The prenursing variables comprised the prenursing grade point average, a prerequisite communication course, and the ATI TEAS composite subscores of TEAS Reading, TEAS Math, TEAS Science, and TEAS English. This study included participants from four baccalaureate nursing programs in the California State University system. Results of canonical correlation, multiple linear regression, and logistic regression revealed a significant correlation among prenursing, ATI scores, and NCLEXRN fi rst-try pass rates. Prediction of NCLEX-RN success rate using standardized testing data was supported, with the strongest predictors being the ATI Medical Surgical and ATI Mental Health tests.The Journal of nursing education. 03/2014; 53(3):151-9.

Yep, because that's what "freedom" is all about in the bizarre, perverse, alternate universe that is right-wing "conservatism" in this country. They, whether it's Glenn Beck, Americans for Prosperity, or The Heritage Foundation have re-defined everything to suit whatever their needs and agenda (and latest get rich- quick scheme) is at any given moment.
Katie Ryder: The Truth About Religious Freedom and the ACA
February 8, 2013
Your right to swing your fist in religious practice ends when your fist reaches my nose, or uterus.
By Katie Ryder
The phrase "religious freedom" pulsed through the 2012 election cycle like a car alarm that everyone decided was just going to go off all day, and it hasn't faded out since. The term is used almost exclusively in reference to policy or legislation related to contraception; abortion; more rarely, gay rights; and, infrequently (amazingly) bullying. Right now, conservatives speak of religious freedom primarily to assert that the Affordable Care Act—which requires employers to provide insurance coverage for contraception—infringes on constitutionally guaranteed religious liberties.
Since the passing of the bill, right-wing publications like The Weekly Standard, National Review, and The Washington Times have all claimed the act mandates that citizens ignore their individual religious compass and involve themselves in the availability of contraceptives. This is not untrue. In fact, it is true. And exactly as it should be in a democracy predicated upon citizens' equality before the law: rights to personal safety, health, and liberty must supersede the religious beliefs of individuals. Classically, this is bread-and-butter territory for the public left. Currently, they're unwilling to say it.
What the left has been too timid to say is this: it is obvious that we do (and must) make laws that conflict with religious views, endlessly variant as they are.

Massive UK Xbox 360 price drop
Two retailers - HMV and GAME - make bold price cuts on Xbox 360 just ahead of the Christmas holiday, bringing the console's price down by more than a third.
Xbox 360 Arcade consoles are now available for 109.97 GBP at GAME and 109.97 GBP at HMV. That's a 50 GBP drop from the original price.
It's difficult to overstate how surprising this sale is, but it's worth taking advantage of if you haven't jumped aboard the Xbox 360 bandwagon already.
There's no indication of how long either GAME or HMV will be offering the console at these prices - neither listing says the price is a limited time offer. While it's hard to believe that such a low sticker will stay through 2010, perhaps pressure from PS3 sales are behind the move.

Dallas QB entering final year of contract Brad Biggs
Outside opinions on Tony Romo vary.
Inside Valley Ranch, he is viewed as a key component to a championship run. Accordingly, the Dallas Cowboys would like to hammer out a long-term contract extension for their quarterback.
Romo is entering the final year of his contract and is set to earn a base salary of $11.5 million. His cap figure for this season is $16.8 million and depending on how a new deal is done, perhaps that number could be lowered a little for the Cowboys, who have a tight salary cap situation.
"Tony is a key piece of what we're about going forward," Cowboys vice president Stephen Jones said, according to Calvin Watkins of ESPN Dallas. "We're certainly going to be looking at his situation (in) time. We've historically (extended contracts) with quarterbacks for the Dallas Cowboys ahead of time. We did it with Troy (Aikman) and we certainly want to look at that with Tony so we can all move forward in terms of how we want to play around our salary cap with our team. Tony is the key piece in terms of how your cap is represented."
Contract talks were halted during the season because Romo did not want them to become a distraction. Now, it's time for the sides to get down to business unless Romo wants to gamble on himself in 2013, similar to what Joe Flacco did this past season.

Conservative columnist Cal Thomas, known as one of the most widely read and highly regarded voices on the American political scene, will be the featured speaker in the Deeds Symposium, presented by the University of Hartford. Thomas, who offers his view of the American landscape and addresses the historical conditions and decisions that have shaped it as a nationally syndicated columnist, will talk about "The Things That Matter Most" in this lecture, being held on Wednesday, April 2, in the University's Wilde Auditorium at 5:30 p.m. The event is free and open to the public, and those interested in tickets can register online at anchoronline.org/deeds.
Thomas is a 36-year veteran of broadcast and print journalism, and his USA Today feature, "Common Ground," written with friend and political counterpart Bob Beckel, offers insightful discussion of contentious social issues. Thomas is also a panelist on television's popular Fox News Watch.
A graduate of American University, Thomas has worked for NBC, CNBC, and PBS in addition to the FOX News Network. He has appeared on NBC Nightly News, Nightline, Good Morning America, Crossfire, Larry King Live, and the Oprah Winfrey Show. A prolific writer, Thomas has published numerous books that include The Wit and Wisdom of Cal Thomas, Common Ground: How to Stop the Partisan War That Is Destroying America, and the upcoming What Works: Common Sense Solutions for a Stronger America.
The Deeds Symposium was created in 1982 at the University of Hartford to provide a forum for the discussion of free-market principles. Program speakers are internationally known participants in the continuing discussion of free enterprise and government.
