What are some good places to visit in Pittsburgh? -

I m trying to plan a trip for my boyfriend and myself in Pittsburgh in the middle of January for his birthday. I m already planning on taking him to a Penguins game (they re his favorite) but am not sure what else we could do for two days. Please Thanks!

My most recent visit to Pittsburgh was in May and I had a great time. I visited the National Aviary, The Pittsburgh Zoo and Aquarium, took the Ducks Tour, rode both the Duquense and Monongahela Inclines (you ll get beautiful views of the city from the top), Carnegie Science Center, Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, Mattress Factory, and the Andy Warhol Museum. I highly recommend all of those places to visit. The only thing that probably won t be operating that time of year are the Ducks Tours. You can shop at Macy s or Sak s downtown. There s also Station Square and Southside for shopping and dining. That s a great idea to see the Pittsburgh Penguins!

Interview at borders @fresno California? -

I have applied last week at borders. Saterday morning they called and said i have an interview on Mon @ 1pm. What should i do to prepare for this interview? How likly am i to get hired? I need answers please.

Your likelihood of getting hired depends on how many people applied.As for getting prepared, I would visit the store (a day or two before your interview) to walk around, get a feel of the layout and all that unless you are familiar with the store. Make sure you have proper interview clothes ready such as slacks and a blouse (you always want to dress up from what the expected dress code will be). Take an extra copy of your resume and a copy of your references, preferably typed up on the computer.At the end, be sure to thank them for the opportunity to interview and politely ask when they expect to make a decision/fill the position so you aren t wondering forever when you might hear from them.

Whats good to do Christmas weekend in Indianapolis? -

Lots of great things to do. Circle Center mall has great shopping and restaurants. Monumnt Circle is decked out to be the world s largest Christmas Tree . Just hanging out downtown is fun, beautiful city. The Zoo has a huge light display. The Children s Museum usually has Christmas related things like a giant slide in the lobby. Other great museums like the Indiana State Museum, Eiteljorg Indian Art Museum, Indy Art Museum, the NCAA Hall of Fame.

I can only give you one answer ..sorry but been trying to get the hubby to take me on a horse and carriage ride in downtown for years .. so i figure thats got to be the best thing to do .....good luck and merry christmas

Circle Center mall and Monumnt Circle are both great this time of year. we were up there 2years ago and the carriage rides were a joke. way too expensive.

Go to Circle Center Mall.
