			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Democrats are hailing first lady Michelle Obama’s visit to Tucson as the latest sign that Arizona will be up for grabs in November’s presidential election, but Republicans insist that the state will go red just like it has the past three election cycles.</p>
<p>Obama is expected to deliver remarks at a fundraiser in the southern Arizona city on Monday evening as part of a four-state campaign push in the West, with other stops in Colorado, Nevada and New Mexico.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nine anti-SB1070 protesters who were arrested for disrupting traffic have been released from jail. A judge entered not guilty pleas for all nine, who are charged with disorderly conduct and obstructing a roadway.<span id="more-805"></span></p>
<p>Their actions delayed light-rail trains along Central Avenue during protests of the anti-immigration bill that was heard before the Supreme Court on Wednesday.</p>
<p>The five men and four women spent the night, and most of Thursday at the Fourth Avenue Jail.</p>
<p>Amy McMullen, of Gold Canyon, was one of the arrested protesters. Her husband, Bob McMullen was furious that she and the others had to spend 18 hours behind bars, but says she made her point.</p>
<p>&#8220;I can&#8217;t imagine what people of color in this state are going through, day in, day out,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m just so proud of the whole group [of protesters] for getting that message across.</p>
<p>And he says that message is that Immigration and Customs Enforcement is tearing families apart.</p>
<p>&#8220;ICE has deported more than one million people in the past 3 years, my family has been torn apart for 23 hours, and ICE has deported more than 40,000 parents of citizen children,&#8221; Bob McMullen said.</p>
<p>The group will return to court May 16.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Phoenix police said two men were shot dead Tuesday in a confrontation that apparently involved a stalker. A police officer shot one of the victims moments after the victim had allegedly shot another man during a scuffle on a street on the city&#8217;s north side.<span id="more-793"></span></p>
<p>Police told the Arizona Republic the officer had been dispatched to the scene in response to a stalking call. The officer was not injured.</p>
<p>The exact circumstances of the shootings was not known, but a resident of the neighborhood told the Republic the area was usually very quiet.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Phoenix police have identified a 29-year-old man who died after being shot in a Phoenix neighborhood late Sunday morning. Phoenix police spokesman Sgt. James Holmes said Carl D. Scott died at a Phoenix hospital after he was shot about 11 a.m. in front of a house on Colter Street near 36th Avenue.<span id="more-790"></span></p>
<p>Officers said the man had been shot in his stomach. Nearby was his car, where officers found his son, who was still strapped into his car seat, Holmes said. Officers said the boy was not injured, and he was turned over to firefighters to be cared for until family could be called. Family told CBS 5 News on Monday the boy is 3 years old.</p>
<p>Investigators said they believe Scott had driven to the neighborhood, gotten into an argument with three black men and was shot.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The National Weather Service says Phoenix should see its first 100-degree day of the year on Saturday as a strong high pressure system builds over the region.<span id="more-787"></span></p>
<p>Afternoon temperatures are expected to hit 100 on Saturday and 101 on Sunday before dropping back into the 90s next week. Tucson residents won&#8217;t see the mercury climb quite as high, with temperatures of 96 degrees on Saturday and 98 predicted on Sunday.</p>
<p>The average date the Phoenix area hits 100 degrees is May 18, but in 1988 the century mark hit early on March 26. The latest day for the first 100-degree day was June 18, 1913.</p>
<p>Tucson usually sees a 100-degree day by May 26.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Phoenix Coyotes goalie Mike Smith, center Martin Hanzal and left wing Lauri Korpikoski did not practice with the team on Monday. Phoenix coach Dave Tippett would not say if they would be available for Game 3 of the Coyotes&#8217; playoff series against Chicago on Tuesday night, only that they were being evaluated.<span id="more-779"></span></p>
<p>Smith was injured in the second period of Phoenix&#8217;s 4-3 overtime loss in Game 2 on Saturday when he was struck on the head by the shoulder of Chicago&#8217;s Andrew Shaw. Smith lay on the ice for five minutes but finished the game.</p>
<p>Hanzal went off in the first period with what appeared to be a lower-body injury and Korpikoski went out in the third after being checked hard into the boards.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Phoenix Children&#8217;s Hospital is a gem right in our backyard.  Providing world renowned care specifically geared toward children, this unique facility is a phenomenal resource for all of the Southwest. <span id="more-774"></span>Teresa Boeger, Director, Division of Family Centered Care shares just a few of the ways this hospital is different from the rest.</p>
<p><strong>Family-centered care</strong> &#8211; care that focuses on the entire family, including parents and siblings. 100% Committed to Kids &#8211; everyone and everything we do focuses on children.</p>
<p><strong>Large, private rooms for families</strong> &#8211; offers privacy for our families, a place for parents to sleep (we have no &#8220;visiting hours&#8221; &#8211; parents are encouraged to be with their children).</p>
<p><strong>Playrooms</strong> that are safe zones/doctor free zones on each floor.  In those rooms the child life staff is on hand to play games, playtime, and use arts and crafts to help get the children used to the things that will happen to them during their stay.</p>
<p><strong>Pet therapy</strong> &#8211; more than 40 dogs are part of an animal-assisted therapy program, available to patients each and every day. Pet therapy has been proven to lower stress, and get kids to do things they wouldn&#8217;t otherwise do (in rehab, get out of bed to play). And of course, they provide unconditional love.</p>
<p><strong>The Child Life Zone</strong> &#8211; Garth Brooks Teammate for Kids Foundation is helping to fund this future 3,800 square foot &#8220;rec center&#8221;.  It will have a pool table, foosball, yoga, hair, nails, makeup, wigs, and a gaming area with Wii&#8217;s and Kinect boxes, where patients can participate in games, from their rooms.</p>
<p><strong>Child Life specialists</strong> &#8211; are on hand to help children and parents cope emotionally with a disease or condition and help prepare them for procedures.</p>
<p><strong>Interpreters</strong> &#8211; are available 24/7 for every family/patient that needs us. They also translate all vital printed materials.</p>
<p><strong>Coffee Cart</strong> &#8211; volunteers walk the halls offering coffee and cookies to our parents and visitors.</p>
<p><strong>Care Cart</strong> &#8211; this is a new feature that is getting started, it goes bedside to all rooms with things that families need during their hospital stay that they&#8217;ve either forgotten or don&#8217;t have access to. Flip flops, paper and pen, Sudoku, newspaper, etc.</p>
<p><strong>Family Advisory Council and Children&#8217;s Advisory Council</strong> &#8211; help hospital make decisions based on their own personal experiences.</p>
