How long would a drive from any random place in Long Island to get to Boise Idaho take? -

Assuming there are no stops. Thanks!

I ll just say Montauk because it s as far out as you can go.Google Maps says 40 hours non-stop. About 2,600 miles. I d say allow four days at a good road-trip average of 500-600 miles per day.

How busy are the airports on Christmas Eve? -

I m flying home Christmas Eve and I m wondering how busy the airports are on that day? Usually it takes me around 20 minutes to get through security and all that. How much longer can I expect to wait? Any experienced fliers have any comments or anyone that s flown on that day? I m flying out of Kansas City, MO if that helps. Thanks

i always fly on Christmas eve and i find that it is not as busy as Thanksgiving. sometimes i m wondering is it because there are few Christians on this planet earth. be at the airport 2 hours before your departure. you will not care for sure if it is a long wait as long as you get to your destination.

Christmas Eve is not as busy as around Thanksgiving, but the weather is typically worse. If you have not yet purchased your ticket allow extra time between flights (if connecting).There are also more people traveling with lots of luggage. Check-in online if possible, and try to fly with only carry-ons.Always get to the airport two (2) full hours before your flight.

Just remember you will have significantly MORE inexperienced travelers holding up lines on Christmas Eve than at other times during the year.

No one wants to travel on Christmas Eve. They want to spend the day and night with their families. So most people make their plans to travel earlier in the week.

Very very very busy i d expect.

What is the distance between typhoon lagoon and universal studios? -

It s about 10-15 minutes by car. According to Google Maps, about 8 miles away.

10.6 miles. About a 16-20 minute drive

its about a 15-20 minute car ride.

Im moving to Denver! Help me!? -

I m looking to move into the Denver area within the next six months. I know the job market isn t great right now, and I have 3 months of rent (at $850/mo) and bills saved up. I m going to start looking before the move but I don t think companies are going to be keen on flying me from Baltimore, where I live now, to interview. So do you think three months will be long enough to find a job? I m in the advertising/marketing field. Also, I ve heard good things about Lodo and Littleton. Could anyone tell me what zip codes Lodo is so I can look for some apartments? Are there areas of the city to definitely stay out of? Thanks!

I think three to six months is enough to find a job. Littleton is okay, its suburban but safe. Definitley need a car.Lodo is very expensive, dont go there blow all your money before you even get a job.Id suggest capitol hill for apartment hunting. Can get something nice for $500-700/month.

I know it is a bit tricky, but I would almost try to stay in an executive suite type place and try to live near where you work. Denver metro is a big place, and rush hour driving is a bear. I would suggest you join the Boulder Marcom Group. Excellent source for networking and learning about possible jobs.hrrp://www.bouldermarketinggroup.com/Lodo is great for singles, Littleton is a family oriented suburb. Very different places. I think Lodo is 80202.

In Your Job Field 3 Months Is Good Enough To Find A Job. Lodo and Littleton are good places to start Thornton which is north of Denver is a good area to check too. 80227 is the Denver zip code and if you are from out east there is nothing here that you havent seen Denver really doesnt have a ghetto just run down parts of town. Parts of East Coalfax are somewhat bad but nothing like you see out east or in L.A.

You are correct in thinking that most places would not pay for your flight to interview you. That only happens if the company is actively courting you to work for them.I would suggest that you let them know when you are planning on being in the city (in a letter ahead of time) and ask them to for a interview within the first few days of first relocating. In this way, if your first choices do not work out you still have time to search and find something else. I wish you the best.

My advice...look for something outside Denver, not too far that would be cheaper to get settled into and commute. I live 90 miles from Denver and I know hundreds of people who do it because it s so cheap where we live compared to Denver they can easily afford their gas with their good jobs. GOOD LUCK TO YOU!

I can only answer part of your question. I think 3 months is enough time to find a job but it will be really hard to. My aunt has to keep quitting her jobs because her bosses are really mean. But she has found a job and it s been a lot longer then 3 months that it took her to find it.

I just moved to Potomac from Colorado Springs which is like 30 minutes from Denver, Its a wonderful place. Pueblo is somewhere you should avoid, everything bad happens there if it happens at all. Good luck and Im sure you will love it

DON T GO TO LITTLETON, that town has been pretty bad since Columbine I ve heard

I agree- Littleton is one of the nicer towns in the denver area. Also- colorado springs isnt 30 minutes from denver unless your driving about 150 miles per hour- its 30 minutes by plane lol. Its a nice town that you could see if you cant find a job in though- consider it (not driveable to denver though). Jobs arent going to pay for you to fly out there- at least not in this economy (too many locals to do that). Your probably going to be on your own with all expenses- if you get anyone to pay thats a huge bonus!!!!Dont forget about moving expenses too- driving out there with your car and stuff (and if you have more that what fits in a car- youll need a truck which is around 1000 or more- I know, I just did it a few months ago from the east coast- not cheap.

First of all, the person that said don t go to Littleton because its bad since Columbine has NO idea what they are talking about. Littleton is a great community and Columbine has done nothing but bring it together more. I would start sending out your resume to companies and seeing what they say, then maybe you could have a few interviews set up for right when you move out or maybe even make a weekend trip. You might want to try a staffing agency as well. http://www.jkentstaffing.com/http://www.aerotekcareers.com/Default.as��there are quite a few, and depending on your specialty, one might be better than the rest, just google staffing agencies in denver, co and several come up.Littleton in probably every bit of 30 minutes to the downtown area in traffic, LODO is right there, most of the areas are safe, although a few places are still in the process of turning around . I believe the zip code is 80202, you might also want to search by neighborhood name...DTC (that one is farther south, but nice area and you might find a job close by its filled with businesses) and Capitol Hill are two that come to mind immediately. More suburban type places with out too much commute would be Edgewater, Stapleton, Lakewood. Look on Craigslist too. Good Luck!

Dangerous for a white girl in bronx etc? -

In 2 months I m going to new york with my family, and I like to explore. I might get these names wrong, so please excuse me. But I m sure that the places me and my best friend want to adventure into together is the bronx, queens, harlem and so on. I v seen things on tv and stuff , but I don t always judge from tv , so can i get your opinion on two white english girls going in these places.

There are white people that live in these areas and many of the people I work with commute from the Bronx and Harlem---one is white middle class, the other indian middle class. But, I have to say, most tourists usually just stick around Mahattan---that is where most of the action is. If you travel to the Bronx, you should check out the Bronx zoo I guess. Im sure theres some stuff to do in Queens. But, most of the stuff is in Manhattan anyhow.If you go to the Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn, etc, maybe take a touristy bus that is going there and don t wander around aimlessly at night. Ive been to some parts of Brooklyn during the day and I was pretty scared at some of the stuff I saw---people were all in the street yelling at each other---no violence, just a lot of poor people who were yelling and carrying on (not saying it wasnt for good reason)

Oh my gosh ! No you should not go out exploring with your girlfriend in these areas, and most of them not even with your parents. http://projects.nytimes.com/crime/homici��Zoom out to the furthest viewThis is a current homicide/murder mapThe nearly solid blue area below The Bronx is Harlem (upper Manhattan) NY Police Dept crime states week to date and year to date.http://www.ci.nyc.ny.us/html/nypd/downlo��

Residential areas are not the safest place if you don t know the area. When i went, during the night people would stare at you from their homes as i walked by, its kinda creepy.

Almost all of Queens is safe. Most parts of the Bronx and Harlem are safe, especially during the day, but some parts are dangerous - the South Bronx and East Harlem have higher crime than the rest. There s really no problem visiting the Bronx Zoo, Yankee Stadium, Harlem s 125th Street area, or the area around Columbia University in Harlem. On the other hand, you really don t want to be wandering around the South Bronx or Harlem aimlessly late at night with no idea where you are going.Tourists visit Harlem for its jazz clubs, soul food and barbecue restaurants, and many sites that are important to black history and culture. Many tourists also visit Harlem s Apollo Theater for live music events, and Harlem churches for Sunday services featuring gospel music. There are specialized tours of Harlem focusing on the Civil Rights movement, the Harlem Renaissance, jazz music, and hip-hop. There s also a part of Harlem where many African immigrants live, and that features African restaurants and stores selling African clothing and music. East Harlem is also known as Spanish Harlem , and was the center of New York s Puerto Rican community, and now also has many immigrants from other parts of Latin America. In East Harlem you find Latin restaurants and clubs featuring salsa dancing.I would recommend visiting Harlem, since it is an important and interesting part of New York that most tourists never see. Just use common sense - don t take photographs of people without asking, don t walk into areas that look like council estates (we call them housing projects), and late at night you should have specific destinations in mind, walk on main streets if possible, and take a taxi if you are unsure.
