Do many people walk on the streets in Brooklyn? -

to use public transportation etc.

Depending on where you are. Some places have a lot of street activity. some none. In baioth cases you will find that it peaks when people are going to or coming from work.

A friend of mine and her husband do. They don t even own cars. There s either public transportation for work, or everything they need within walking distance.

I live in BK, and it depends on the streets of course as mentioned before. BK has its good and bad parts.

the majority of New Yorkers do not have acces to a car, walking is a necessity all over.

How many miles is Pasadena from L.A.? -

Pasadena is immediately adjacent to Los Angeles (Eagle Rock). Downtown Pasadena is about 11 miles from downtown LA.

Miles wise its between 10 and 20 depending on what freeway you take. If you take 110N, its about 10-12 miles. 10 E can be between 10-20 ---- of course it depends on where you are exactly...Time wise, in rush hour traffic you can expect to spend 30-40 mins to go say 15 miles.

Depends where at you live in Pasadena and where you want to be in LA, I live in Pasadena, and it takes about 12 minutes to get into La (taking the 110 fwy) buttt it ranges as to where I am going in La and what time of day it is... plan wisely, nothing like the LA traffic. ;)

Depends where in LA. LA is 30 miles east to west.

New York City transit workers history? -

I m doing a project, and im looking for the local 100 history, but when i try to check the history in their website, it says i have to be a member of the union. Is there another website that can help me to find the history, not even wikipedia can help me

I would suggest that you go back to their website and look around for a Contact Us page and call or write to them and explain to them about your project and ask them directly for permission to view those pages, and I m sure they ll be happy to let you see them.Good luck!

You can try this site. It does not have any history of the union but it is FULL of men who do nothing but talk about the job. You can get a whole lot of information just by reading the threads. www.subchat.com

Join the union!

What time is the daylight gone by in March, in NYC? -

Could you please tell me what time approximately does the night start falling towards the end of March in New York?Many thanks indeed.

The end of march--that s right after daylight savings or whatever they call it. That one added hour makes a bigger difference in daylight than the entirety of the orbit-around-the-sun creates in a snails-pace that it does. It seems to go from day-by-day creeping up to a not-even-6-o clock-yet-and- it s-getting-dark 5:50 sunset to a just-right-almost-7 the next day. So around 6:50 PM, for what it s worth.

What is the weather like at Pismo Beach, California in December? -

Im going to Pismo Beach December 21st thru December 28th. Also, what are some good restaurants and places to go?

The weather is usually lovely that time of year. It s usually around 65 degrees in the daytime. Be prepared for rain or sun. I ve been there in December and January and had mostly sunny weather. Sometimes it got into the 70 s F. Be sure to take a drive to San Simeon to tour Hearst Castle. It is magnificent and the drive on the PCH is like heaven on earth. Kayaking is plenty of fun. In nearby Oceano, they have fun Hummer Dunes tours. Guadalupe-Nipomo Dunes is a great place to explore. They have interesting hiking tours and a nature center with a gift shop. It is located in nearby Guadalupe. For restaurants, I recommend Cracked Crab which has excellent seafood. Hoagie s Sandwhiches and Grill has good sandwhiches, fish and chips, tacos, and much more. Del s Pizzeria and Italian Restaurant has delicious Italian food. Pizza and lasagna are the best foods to order. These restaurants are all located right in Pismo Beach.Prime Outlets in Pismo Beach is the place to shop. They have everything from Calvin Klein to Izod, Nike, Polo Ralph Lauren, Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, and Styles for Less.

How many of you went to NY yesterday to see the Rockefeller Center, but unfortunately couldnt enter? -

I went with my family at 5:00 and we ended up leaving at 7:30 and they said we couldn t enter, all the streets were blocked as if they re was something going on. In every corner there was at least two police men. It felt horrible because i saw little kids cry and it made me feel even sadder. A whole group of like 300 people were walking behind us and couldn t get there way inside either! We were walking like for two hours in a half just for them to tell us in every corner that there was no trespassing. It was very disappointing.

Well make sure next time u go the before 4:30. The earlier the better. Good luck!

With security a concern and previous problems in crowd control elsewhere, there are going to be access restrictions in areas like that. Get there earlier and dress warm. Most New Yorkers don t go to the lighting anymore. It s become too commercialized. We watch on TV while having a snack.

Honey, there WAS something going on--the tree lighting. They have to limit how many people can enter or you d have a dangerous situation. I m sorry you had a miserable experience. Most New Yorkers prefer to watch the tree lighting on TV. This is why. :-)

yeah I tried to get close around 5:30 myself and walked around here and there, the closest I got was 51st and 6th. It was a zoo, way too many people and way too many streets blocked off.

You have to get there a lot earlier than 5pm!

What is the most direct route, on foot, from San Ysidro, CA to Macias, Maine and what is the exact mileage? -

Nobody can give you an answer to that because there are simply too many variables in your problemA route that you can legally and safely walk down is very different than a route that you can legally and safely drive down so you immediately have to toss out any answers that people got from mapquest et al.My best guess would be that you can probably double the distance that you would get from mapquest et al

3327 Miles. It would take you 48 hours of driving to do it. I have no idea how long it would take to walk it. A lot of this is covered by route 40

Based on 3327 miles. as said before. The average walking speed of 5 mph. would be about 665 hrs. approximate days would be 27- 28 days.

WHAT R THE BEST PARTS OF PHILADELPHIA TO LIVE? -

I AM RELOCATING TO PHILADELPHIA AND i WANT TO MOVE TO A DECENT NEIGHBORHOOD IT MUST BE CLOSE TO SUBWAYS AND BUS AND MAJOR HIGHWAYS GOOD DAY CARE SERVICES

Best parts of the Center City area include Rittenhouse Square and Society Hill, but they are quite pricey. Going further down into South Philly, you can find some decent neighborhoods. Going north, Northern Liberties and Fishtown are becomming trendy, but they are close to slums as well.

how much money do u have...See let me clue you into a little secret...the bad guys know where the rich nice neighborhoods are so ur never totally safe...in any urban city...but if u have the bucks...Chestnut hill, Rittenhouse square, society hill, Graduate Hosp area...Art Museum area.I lived in Philadelphia for 40 years..and the safest place to live is in the immediate suburbs of Montgomery County, Berks County and some parts of delaware county..all accessible to downtown Philly in a half hour or less by Regional Rail..

the suburbs

Disney world??!!!!!!!!!? -

when is the least crowed time in disney. is december crowded? when r the least buzy times in december and overall

well the first half of december is one of the best times to go and its noted to be literally the least crowded time of the entire year. plus all the xmas celebrations are in full swing. second half of december is the worst time of year to go as far as the crowds and from dec 21st to jan 1st is literally the busiest time of the entire year. other low crowd times of the year are...-second half of january-first 2 weeks in february-last week in february-first half of march-last week in april-first half of may-second half of september-fist half of october-first half of november

The first two weeks of December are the least crowed. Try to go on a weekday as the weekends are really busy. My wife and I went last year the second week of Dec and we had a ball. Here are some links to the Christmas events. Have fun.

In the beginning of Dec. it is crowded because that s when they have all the cheerleaders from all over the US competing. They hold the Competition there. Its from the 9th this year and lasts about a week. If you call there they will tell you when. All the hotels are full and its very crowded.

The first 2 weeks in Dec.are the best time to go. The weather is great and crowds are low.
