Best 18+ clubs in Dallas? -

I want to go dancing tonight, but Purgatory, the only 18+ club I know of in Dallas, is closed for renovations. Any suggestions? Thanks

Why don t you try a Bible club instead?

Do I have to wait 15 minutes to swipe my card again after I just swipe to take the mta bus? -

I know I need wait 15 minutes for train station, but how about buses?

Only if it s the same bus route in the same direction.Had that happen to me once. I took the bus home and got off at my stop, then decided I wanted to go get something to eat first at a place farther down the route. Got on the next bus, and it wouldn t take my card. I told the driver I d just gotten off the last bus and he let me board.It s actually 18 minutes, by the way.

Sure, if you take a different bus it s just a free transfer. You just can t jump off one bus and on the next one running the same route, which is so that you can t ride a bit and get off and hand your Metrocard to someone waiting at that stop. Report Abuse

If you re sharing an unlimited ride MetroCard with another person or you re using it on the same bus route, then yes, you will have to be 20 minutes (not 15 minutes). This is the reason why you need to purchase individual cards.Good lucks

If it is a regular metrocard, you can use it up to 4 times in a row without having to wait.If you are using an unlimited metrocard, you have to wait 18 minutes until you can use it again.

from bus to train no u dont have to wait. from bus to bus. you dont have to wait either when u swipe you get a transfer to a next bus.

Best way to get Rockafeller center from Penn Station on 12/6? -

Planning on seeing the tree at Rock Center after the Knicks game on 12/6 (Sunday 2:30pm). What do you suggest we use, , a train or taxi?If its train, please state which line form Penn sta.If its taxi, please include the taxi price.Thanks!

Neither train nor taxi. Walking is probably best, it s a really nice walk out there this time of year and will take about 20 minutes, maybe a little less.Just get out of Penn Station, and walk along 34th Street to 6th Avenue. Look at the Macy s windows along the way. Turn left at 6th, and walk up 6th Avenue to 48th Street as you see all the nice decorations along 6th. Make a right at 48th, and halfway to 5th Avenue, you ll get to Rockefeller Plaza. Can t miss the tree.If you re in a hurry, find an uptown 1 train out of Penn Station and get off at 50th Street, then walk from 7th Avenue to 6th Avenue. Or, get an uptown/Queens-bound E train and take it to 5th Avenue/53rd Street, and just walk down 5th to 50th Street and make a right. It s a toss-up, go to the 1 or the E, whichever you find first. Then again, it s weekend service, so in the amount of time you d be waiting for and riding the train, then walking from it, it might take just as long to just walk the whole way, and you ll see more.Taxi will likely be more than $5, maybe more than $10. This is a situation in which I would never take a taxi unless I was carrying a ridiculously large amount of stuff. It s midtown Manhattan in the middle of the day.Just take a nice walk, trust me.

Oh, then just walk! It s easy, and it s short! Maybe walk up to Central Park just for fun! Report Abuse

If the weather is nice, I would walk. Its not far, and walking is the best way to get around in Manhattan.Leave Penn station at the 8th Avenue exit. Walk north on 8th Avenue to 49th street. Turn right and walk one-half block to the entrance to the Plaza. The tree will be immediately in front of you.If the weather is bad - - - ugh. Choices are less desirable. There is a taxi stand directly in front of the 8th Avenue exist of Penn Station, but the line for a taxi could be very long.For the subway, Leave Penn station at the 8th Avenue Exit. Walk straight ahead on 34th Street for two blocks to Herald Square subway station. Take an F, B, Q or D train - get off at second stop at Rockefeller Center. This station is on the 6th Ave side, so you will need to walk around the 30 Rock building - take either 49th or 50th street one half block to the entrance to the Plaza, and the tree will be directly in front of you.

Option 1:Exit Penn Station at 7th Av exit.Walk to 34th St-Herald Sq at 6th Av-Broadway.Take uptown (D) or (F) to 47th-50th Sts.Option 2:Take same exit as Option 1.Take Bronx-bound (1)(2) or Harlem-bound (3) to Times Sq.Transfer to Flushing-bound (7) train to 5th Av-Bryant Park.Transfer to uptown (D) or (F).Taxis cost you more because jump in taxi now has been raised to $3 as of Nov 1, 2009. This is part of MTA Bailout Plan.Also please be advise weekend has many construction work schedule on subway system.

take the taxi baby, trains are allways giving trouble BELIEVE ME I TAKE THE TRAIN EVERY DAY! it wont cost you no more then 15$ the key is take it near Rockafeller center then walk like 2 blocks to avoid the crowd it will be fast and easy And you dont have to walk so much like someone else said on this webpage dress warmly cause it gets cold and if you have your wallet in a pocket make sure its your inner coat pocket cause there plenty of pickpocketers around crowded areas in the city. Enjoy and ...I love you lol

Walking is nice, however, if the weather is fouled you might want to take the subway.From Penn Station, take the uptown (northbound) #1, 2 or 3 lines (Red Line on the subway map) to Times Square.At Times Square, transfer upstairs to the the N , R or W train (Yellow Line). Take either line from Times Square to 49th Street.At 49th Street, exit the subway, exit the station and follow the walking direction at the link below.http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d source=s��Good luckNative New Yorker

This is for public transportation. To change the time and date go to show options http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d source=s��U can also go walking. This can help u:http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d source=s��Good luck!

Walking is fast than crosstown traffice. Come out at 34th St. 7th Ave. Walk across to 6th Ave. Turn left. Walk up to 50th St.

Take the E train from New York Penn Station to 5th Ave-53rd St station and walk down two blocks to The Tree.

Taxi.....10 bucks top!

You can take the Greyhound Bus from San Diego (at the Sofia Hotel http://www.greyhound.com/home/TicketCent�� ) to Riverside ( http://www.greyhound.com/home/TicketCent�� ). There is one leaving at 4:30PM next Sunday and arriving at 6:55PM. Costs $24.

I am going to New York City and need help!? -

So I am going to New York City next week and I am from Georgia. I have never been and would like to know some places to go that are less heard of . I know like the Statue of Liberty, Times Square, etc. but are there any lesser known historical or cool places to visit? Also, I wanted to ride up to Connecticut to see some places. What would it cost to get from Manhattan to Connecticut? Can you take the subway or is that all done by cab? Thanks!

you have to cross the riverI recommend Hudson River Raftinghttp://www.hudsonriverrafting.com/

To get to Connecticut you can take a train from Grand Central every hour for $14 round trip. The terminal is really cool too. Something to see.SOHO is a great shopping district and just a cool area of NYC. Wonder to Canal Street. It has all the knock off bags you ll want and is attached on the East by Little Italy (amazing Italian restaurants), and china town.Right now Union Square (14th and Broadway) has a Christmas market set up in the middle and is so cute. Great park.Check out the store windows at Macy s on 34th and Broadway. Huge over the top displays.Rockefeller Center has the ice skating rink and giant beautiful Christmas tree.Dress warm, it s freezing in the winter!

i just came from newyork this summer it is so fun but exspensive make sure u take a tour on the ducks is like only 20 dollars it is realy fun and go to the max museum in newyork they have statues of michael jackson the rock and a bunch of celebrities i think you would like it!

don t do those duck tours, they re probably the tackiest tourist thing ever, but even though the wax museum is also very touristy, it s interesting to see how tall, skinny, fat, short your favorite celebs are, and the place is huge!

From NY to CT u can take the subway and u can know the directions from http://www.googlemaps.com And this link can help on what to do in NYC:http://travel.yahoo.com/p-travelguide-27��Good luck!

Check out Frances tavern near Battery Park. It s where George Washington gave his farewell address to his commanding officers and one of the last remaining colonial houses in NYC.

Providence Rhode Island to New York transportation.Here is my research for Providence:Here are ways to get to Providence from New York:Please note this is my computer and phone research, but I have not been on these buses to Providence. I just wanted to post to help people out because it took a while to research. Although many buses exist for Boston, not as many options for Providence that are cheap.1. Greyhound bus:Greyhound is cheap. Usually companion fare of second traveller is half price. However the New York to Providence route stops at 5 stops and takes 5 hours and 45 minutes on some trips according to their schedule, stopping in New Haven, Foxwoods casino, Mohegan Sun casino, etc... On the return trip, there are some buses that take 3 hours 45minutes, so check the schedule and buy for that bus. It is about $57 round trip for first person, and about $28 round trip for second companion. Leaves from Port Authority bus terminal at 42nd street and 8th avenue in Manhattan. Note, that companion fares must be bought 3 days in advance.2. Peter Pan bus lines:Leaves from Manhattan s Port Authority Bus terminal. A little more expensive than Greyhound buses.3. Amtrak train:There is an Acela high speed train. Check for discounts if buying in advance.There is the regular Northeast Regional train. It is generally about $55 one way, but that low fare can sell out. There is a special discount code offered through the Rhode Island Tourism board or something with a similar name, I think the code is V174. That should give a 20% discount, and bring fare to possibly $43 one way, or $86 round trip. This is not badly priced for taking the train, only 3 hours and 25 minutes long.I think there may be a sale on some New York Boston trains for $49, see if it stops at Providence and if that price. Train is of course more comfy than bus.4. Local trains:Your best bet is the $43 one way fare on Amtrak or some other internet discount. But, suppose you already checked and those are not available. Here is what you can do.Take the Metronorth train from Grand Central Station (42nd and Lexington) all the way to the last stop on the New Haven line, which is New Haven. This costs between $14 and $24 one way depending on whether it is weekday peak time or weekend off peak time.Then, in New Haven, transfer to the local Connecticut train, called the Shoreline East. Take that to almost the end, in Old Saybrook, should be about $7. Do not take to the last stop of New London, because Amtrak trains do not go there often.From Old Saybrook, take the Amtrak train to Providence. This could cost about $23-$30. But, if booked in advance 3 days maybe with the V174 Rhode Island promotional AMtrak code, it could cost $14 one way.I have not tried the above. Look at the internet sites and try to arrange the times to see if they coordinate. It could take about 5 hours on this local way, because SHoreline east is local, and must wait to connect between three trains. It could be more expensive than AMtrak if you don t get the discounts too.Foxwoods or Mohegan Sun Chinatown bus:Take a bus from New York s chinatown, leaving from Chatham Square. This is the intersection where the following streets intersect: Bowery, Division, East Broadway, etc.... Buses generally leave every few hours probably. Check schedule. You probably spend about $18 for a round trip ticket on this bus. Then, cash in your voucher at the casino for $20 cash probably. But, the problem is you are still one hour from Providence. You can try to get the Greyhound bus from there, but you will find the price is similar to the price from NYC ($43 round trip instead of $57 probably), so this is not worth the hassle. But, great if you can get someone to pick you up just one hour from Providence at either casino!!!! But, don t gamble there!! Just eat the free meal!Haven t done this either. Just something for your research.5. Gonzalez bus lines:There is a Dominican van service leaving uptown Manhattan in Washinton Heights that goes to Providence a few times a day. It is $25 each way. Great if you only speak Spanish probably. Otherwise, too expensive for a van service. Don t know if this is small crowded van or big comfy van with aisle. Maybe bus is more comfortable.6. Heard there is something Called San Miguel Bus service, but not sure.7. Chinatown boston buses.Try to ask if they stop anywhere along the way, get them to drop you off, and have a friend pick you up 1 hour away. $15 each way. But, won t get you directly to Providence. I wouldn t waste my time going to Boston first. Not sure if they stop somewhere on the highway at a reststop halfway in Connecticut or something for 15 minutes, may be ok if you have a friend to pick you up, but not sure.8. Take the Chinatown bus to Boston, then take the local rail service to PRovidence. I wouldn t bother due to the extra time and traffic involved!!9. Check the

What does the hawaiian term quot;hoa aloha e komo mai mean in englishquot;? -

E komo mai is like Welcome Aloha ...varies....I think in this case, it s just a simple, Hello . according to an online dictionary, hoa is like a companion/friend/colleague . So if you put that together, to put it simply, it s probably along the lines of, Friend, hello and welcome. It sounds a bit weird but...I hope it helps somewhat.

?Komo mai? means come in whereas ?aloha? can also mean love. So if I had to guess, it would be: let love come in. You heard it from LILO AND STITCH, didn t you?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsUm5WFDJ��

hoa aloha is a close friend, and e komo mai means come in . So hoa aloha, e komo mai means friend, come in .

Does anyone know of any day rate hotels on long island, ny? -

Looking for a day rate hotel in either suffolk or nassau, preferably nassau but will take anything. Any ideas?

Hollywood Motel, in Farmingdale on the Nassau/Suffolk border at the Route 109 / Southern State Parkway interchange:http://www.hollywood-motel.com/

So you re not spending the night? Usually places with day rates are seedy, germy, sleezy MOTELS for a quickie.

Why is Newark Airport NJ always listed as NY...? -

Ok I flew to Newark Airport EWR often the closest to go Manhattan NY, EWR is New Jersey, why is NewWark EWR is ALWAYS listed as NY when its not in NY? Its in NJ state! I know there is another newark upstate NY.EWR is NJ and I am baffled why its always listed as NY , is it because its close proximity to Manhattan? for tourist sake?

The airport is run by The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, and their offices are located in New York.Also, as you mention, the airport is near Manhattan--only fourteen miles away.

Its considered as an airport for NY. Because Manhattan has no airport and Queens has 2, but the one in Newark is closer.

This is for people who live in the City and in apartment buildings in the city? -

TO Stan Cranley NO I AM NOT GIVING AWAY. PLAN ON KEEPING ALL

I never worry about moths.Moths are not so common here in New York City. Besides, if you live on the upper floors, moths tend to stay at lower levels and at night, they are only attracted to light.I ve never seen a moth inside the building I live in, and I don t know of anyone else personally here in NYC that has had problems with moths.Besides, if you are really worried about what moths do to clothes, keep your closet doors closed so they can t get in your closet in case one gets into your apartment/whatever type of residence you live in.

I ve had lots of bug problems in my NYC apt but never moths. I wouldn t worry about it.That said, you shouldn t keep too many clothes and blankets that you never use.A rule of thumb is to go through your closet and drawers, pick out everything you haven t worn in more than a year, and donate it to charity.Simplicity is good, clutter is bad.

No, i rent the luxury apts that go from 15 hun to 2000 a month. I also just sleep under a bridge sometimes too, much cheaper then i shower in a center and no one ever knows, good huh?

What are some heavy metal/hard rock radio stations in Phoenix, Arizona? -

I know about 97.9 but I don t really like their songs most of the time.

Here is a list of radio stations in Phoenix:http://www.ontheradio.net/metro/Phoenix_��You might try 96.7 FM, 93.3 FM, 99.9 FM.

Where exactly is the Upper East Side? -

Hey, just wondering from where to where you think is the Upper East Side. My guess:Avenues: York to East EndStreets: 59th to Carnegie Hill area( aka 95th street because it does not look as beautiful once you get to high in the 90s streets) Just wondering. And what are the avenues in the Upper West Side? Amsterdam, Broadway... Btw, what neighborhood in Manhattan do you love the most. Upper East SideSohoTribecaUpper West Side

By now you know that your description was way off.I would define the area as the part of Manhattan between Central Park and the East River. (BTW, not really a river) That goes a little higher than some other people s description, but ask them... What area is between 96th street and 110th street?

When I visit NYC, I like the Village, LES, Soho, and Chelsea. I ve stayed in Midtown, and it s okay, but I like to stay south of 30th Street if I can help it, unless I m going to Candle Cafe at 3rd Avenue and 75th Street or one of the museums up there.

From E57th st to E95th st, and 5th avenue to FDR Drive is the upper East. 5th Avenue splits Manhattan East and West. My favorite part of town is the Flat Iron District/Union Square.

I like the Upper East Side, it s amazing!

Where should i move to?? What state? -

Me and my roomates are all tired of college here in Cincinnati and want some change. We are constantly talking about moving away but cant decide where?We talk about florida, colorado, tennessee, california, and australia.We like to smoke weed alot and party. were are all 18-20would enjoy all sports, surfing snowboarding skydivng. we just wanna have fun because we dont know what to do with our lives.We wanna do australia for a year or so for the experience.what would you do??

East Tennessee would be a good state for you

ok ballers lol i mean damn if u have the money to just pick up n go to australia then do it but fyi it s really hard to get a visa there they don t want u unless u have special skills and can contribute in some way...my cousin lives there. but since ur already in cinci then u know the best place to go would be pittsburgh!! cause it rocks there! but if all u wanna do is smoke, drink, party, n sleep around (which is what it sounds like) without have to actually be a productive member of society then i suggest somewhere like atl or miami...tenn is lame cali is ok...charlotte nc is a big party city...but that s too close to me n i don t want yins down here sleepin with everyone i know!! lmao nah i m playin...but it is a big party city.

Move to Colorado

go to florida..cuz australia is more conversative country.

Do Australia mate.but don t be too much of a yobbo.

i live in florida and id effing rocks dude get your *** over here lmfao

Is Manhattan safe for a 15/16 year old girl to visit alone and roam? -

I don t live too far from NYC, just about 30 minutes away. I know how to get there and where to go, and I am going to see the parade for Thanksgiving. Are there places to avoid? Should I be aware of certain things? I m only going to be there during the morning, coming home at 1 in the afternoon at the latest, so I won t stay there at night.Please kind answers only.

If you come in for the parade and you want to wander around midtown for a few hours and window shop or whatever you will be fine. Word of advice, though. However you come into town you may possibly encounter some people in the train or bus terminal who may either offer you help, ask for directions, ask for a handout or some other sham. Keep walking. Most of these guys are up to no good but will leave you alone if you keep walking. If you feel the least bit uncomfortable there look for a cop or any transit employee will help. Worse comes to worst, choose a friendly looking stranger. We will protect you.

Stick to mid-town Manhattan and SoHo/Greenwich Village, but still be careful. You ll be a walking victim-waiting-to-happen. Keep your purse wrapped tightly UNDER your arm; have emergency money hidden somewhere on you; ANYTHING that sounds too good to be true, DEFINITELY IS. Familiarize yourself with maps, stores, museums, anyplace your going BEFORE you head in. (That last think you want to do is look like a tourist, and a map in your hand screams that.)

you will be safe if you stick to highly populated areas and don t look lost. don t check a map frequently, etc. you have to look like you know where you are and what you re doing.. if you are obviously wandering aimlessly then shady types will pick up on that

If you know your way around then your fine but if you go on a school day, watch out for the police officers. One of my friends got caught a few years ago. I don t know if they still do that.

During school days when I was your age I went everywhere alone...

You ll be fine just don t get lost.

dont go alone be with a group of 2 or 3 friends

Where are the hookers in Phoenix these days? -
