What is the best airport in the US? -

The ��best�� category saw three newcomers: Seattle, Phoenix, and Washington��s Reagan National. That means, of course, that three other airports fell out of the top 10. Houston, Orlando, and St. Louis don��t make an appearance on this year��s list (though they didn��t fall so far as to be grouped among the worst airports).

My favorite is SFO. It s simple and easy to get around especially for how much traffic it gets.

I heard Denver was supposed to be the best but who cares about airports they suck

The gates of Avalon

Chicago.. I love going there, and shopping before i leave for vacation!-hope i helped.

How long would it take to drive from Commack, NY to Manhattan? -

If you mean long islan about hour and a half if you leave at 3am weekdays. If you leave weekdays at 6am till well anytime in the day about 3 hrs Take the LIRR

all i know is, from the center of the island to the city( if you leave at like 3am) it will take 45-60 minutes.

LAS VEGAS????????????? -

I am giving my bf a trip to vegas for xmas. Although unsure when we will go.. (after xmas, spring.. will have to be a mutual decision). I have been looking into treasure island hotel. It looks nice, and cheaper for a 4 star... Has anyone stayed here? or have any opinions??Also, what are some things to see while we are there?? And what is a good amount of time to stay??.. I was thinking 4 nights.. I don t want it to feel like we weren t able to see anything, but don t want to become bored from staying too long (if that is possible)!! Thanks for your help!!!

TI is one of those sneaky sob places that show low rates but when you get there you are suddenly hit with an additional $20.00 per night resort fees . The property was built by Steve Wynn as an overflow for the then popular Mirage . With a pirate theme he encourage families with kids to stay there. The rooms are small compared to other hotels that charge the same price, with the additional resort fees . The pool area is a newer addition. It is small and really not that great because originally guests there were allowed to use the great pool at the Mirage. Take all that into consideration when comparing hotels. The following page will show which hotels charge resort fees , how much and what you get for them. I would recommend that you consider a hotel that doesn t charge these hidden fees.

Do not bother going to the lesser places such as the Imperial Palace or the Riviera, unless BUDGET is an issue for you ok, are you planning to stay in bed and watch HDTV all day long? Dont worry about the cheap Riviera. A room is a room, a bed is a bed. You could as well stay 4 nights in a motel and pay $89!I was at the Excalibur 4 nights. Awesome buffet. Stat away from The Trop s buffet.

3 night is the ideal time to spend in Las Vegas. Treasure Island is a nice hotel in a great location on the Vegas strip. However compare rates before booking. Look into MGM Grand, Mirage or PHYou will not be bored in Vegas, Here are a few things to do.http://www.lasvegas-how-to.com/things-to��

upon arriving in las vegas you can find a free booklet which will advise you on placesto go. 4 nights is a good time frame. a couple of times this year i have stayed for a week.i have been there 4 times this year.

3 nights is plenty . . . after 4 nights you find your skin turning grey from over eatting/drinking/smoking/sex/ etc.

Treasure Island is a great price for a AAA 4 diamond hotel. A mobil 4 star hotel is a bit nicer. The location is perfect.

Be sure to visit our Secret Garden and see the statue of us on the strip!

Look at the brand new Vdara that opened today, but no casino. Rooms are around 150.

How is life in Richardson, TX? -

I m living in Sacramento, CA all my life . But my husband will move to Richardson for his new job in June, I m so afraid of leaving. Is this a nice city or can any one specifically let me know which neighborhood is nice? We also look for a good school for our 8 years old son. Music is his passion so is there any good piano teacher or music program in this city? He also plays golf and is in swim team and chess club, is there any place that my son can continue his activities in Richardson? What is the price range for house? Is it cheaper than CA? How is skin care business? I m a 16 years esthetician and would love to start my career in this city, will I have a good opportunity here? Thanks so much.

Richardson is my favorite city. I have family who live there, and I ve considered moving there myself. As it is, I drive there several times per week to eat at my favorite restaurants, and I like the eclectic atmosphere. They have large trees in the well established neighborhoods.The Dallas Area Rapid Transit Light Rail Red Line runs from downtown Dallas, through Richardson to North Plano.http://www.dart.org/maps/printrailmap.as��Richardson Artshttp://www.cor.net/arts.aspx?id=176http://www.richardsonsymphony.org/North Texas Swim Teamshttp://www.ntswim.org/template.php?page=��http://www.ntswim.org/template.php?page=��Plano, TX (Just North of Richardson) - Aquaducks Youth Swim Teamhttp://plano.gov/Departments/parksandrec��Richardson schools are good. They have a lot of extra curricular opportunities for the students. Plano ISD is one of the best in the state, and offers plenty of extra curricular activities.Frisco schools are good, but lack the plethora of extra curricular programs that Richardson and Plano offer.Allen, TX schools are excellent. They offer more extra curricular opportunities than Frisco, TX simply because the schools have been developed for a longer period of time. Frisco is growing by leaps and bounds, and the schools are having a hard time keeping up. Allen ISD ratings are some of the best in the state, but the number of programs do not match Plano and Richardson. Allen Band is the largest in the U.S..Cross Timbers Youth Orchestra is based in Allen, but Plano, Frisco and McKinney youths also participate.http://www.ctyo.org/http://www.artsofcollincounty.org/If you want your son to do better on his SAT scores, you should choose Plano schools. Their students SAT scores blow other schools away.Plano home prices range from affordable to multi-million dollar homes. Some people will say there is a bad area of Plano, but compared to many other cities, Plano really doesn t have a bad area. The West side of Plano is the entitled mcmansion side, and the east side (East of N. Central Expwy.) has cute smaller homes as well as nice, newer homes with large lots and plenty of trees. The East side of Plano also has two beautiful, huge city parks where they hold a balloon festival and outdoor concerts.http://www.plano.gov/Departments/parksan��You will have no trouble finding a job as an esthetician any where in the area North of Dallas. People in this area are very appearance conscious .-If your son loves chess, he would be interested to know that the University of Texas at Dallas is actually in Richardson. UTD houses a nationally renowned chess team that has won numerous prestigious awards.http://chess.utdallas.edu/accomplish.htm��

Glad I could help. I ll send you an email with more information. Report Abuse

Richardson is a middle class bedroom community North of Dallas.It has some very nice neighborhoods and some areas that are not so nice.It has a good school system, but again some schools are lacking.There are several very good music teachers in the area, and he can continue all of his activities.The cost of living is much cheaper in Texas, you can get a very nice house for less than $200,000.There are many skin clinics and spas in the area.

Houses in the Dallas area cost at least half what you d expect to pay for the same thing in California. Of course I m referring to the way it was before the housing bust. Richardson is a nice, older, middle class suburb. Plano Frisco just north of Dallas, are nice suburbs and very desirable for families with young children.Since your husband will be working in Richardson it would be convenient to live there. Check it out first and if it isn t what you re looking for look at Plano Frisco.
