Q&A: San Francisco residents, where was this movie scene filmed?

Question by Dances With Mops: San Francisco residents, where was this movie scene filmed?
In Roger Moore’s last outing as James Bond, “A View To A Kill,” there is a scene in which he steals a fire engine and allegedly jumps it over an open drawbridge (not-so-smooth editing). The SFPD tries to follow him, but loses half their patrol fleet in the process. Where was this drawbridge?
Also, are there any organized tours of famous movie settings in San Francisco? I know that there have been scores of films made there.
AJ- How did I know that you could come up with those links?

You shouldn’t visit the IMAX in New Orleans. It is nice, but it’s a waste of time if you’ve ever been to a movie theater. But as long as your gettung early starts you should be able to visit all the places you want to see.

We are planning a vacation to Washington DC this summer. Being from Maine, I know nothing about the area.?

Question by Mrs J: We are planning a vacation to Washington DC this summer. Being from Maine, I know nothing about the area.?
I’m hoping there is someone out there who does. Right now we are planning to take a bus from here to there. Now how would I get from the bus station to the motel? Are there busses that run around town?

Best answer:

Answer by Mc Duff
buse or cabs — just like the big city —- You’ll want to allow a lot
of time for the Smithsonian. Then within walking distance on the
mall you’ll find the National Archives, short distance from there
is the white house, senate,:Lincoln, Jefferson, and Washington
Memorial. Then take a step or two over to Arlington to pay respects
and visit Kennedy’s eternal flame. A taxi/bus ride will get you
out to the National Zoo with the Panda’s n stuff. Been a few years
since I was there last so don’t remember night spots – sorry

Q&A: Will flights from London to New York this summer get cheaper or more expensive the longer I wait?

Question by Lord G: Will flights from London to New York this summer get cheaper or more expensive the longer I wait?
I am looking into travelling from London to New York in late July/early August and coming back in late August/early September. Flights at the moment are about £150 each way (what I think is cheap).
Should I buy them as soon as possible, or can I wait for a few months before buying the tickets?
Thanks.

Is this a good price for buying my betta a new home?

Question by Neena: Is this a good price for buying my betta a new home?
My crowntail male betta, Bubbles, currently lives in a 1 gallon bowl with a little tower, some pink gravel, some marbles, and some i amazon sword tail plant. In the fall, i am planning to move him to a bigger home.
i am planning to buy these things at petco:
petco water nymph betta plant (3 of them) $ 9.87
petco thermometer w/suction cup $ 3.99
petco suction cups for aquarium heaters $ 2.49
petco submersible aquarium heater (50 watt) $ 24.99
aquatic gardens deluxe plastic aquarium w/lid $ 9.99
san francisco bay brand freeze-dried bloodworms $ 2.99

total: about $ 55

all of the items on the list are rated between 4-5 paws on the petco website. i already have some gravel and water conditioner at home.
i would put the items on links, but i don’t know how to. sorry! but plz check out the items on petco.com and see if they would help make a good home for my betta. (i am planning to move the tower in the bowl to the tank, if i get it)
So is this a good price for buying the materials for a new home?
and do you think the stuff is good quality? if not, please recommend something else. i think the tank is about 2.5 gallons. i would get something 5 gallons, but i don’t have the space. So i hope you betta lovers answer my question! Thanks in advance! :)
i would get a 5 gallon tank (that’s the large size of the tank i mentioned) but like i said, there isn’t enough room in my room. :)
Thanks for mentioning big al’s online. i’d love to buy it from there, but im only 13 and i don’t have a credit card :) (my dad doesn’t like giving his credit card number)
hmm.. maybe i should get the 5 gallon version of the tank i mentioned.. thanks, guys! would the 50 watt heater be good for a 5 gallon tank then?
i know that bloodworms aren’t good for the betta to eat all the time. I just wanted my betta to have some variety in its diet since it’s just been living on wardley betta pellets and i haven’t had time to go to the pet store to get it some treats. sorry if i wasn’t clear enough!

Hmmm, you do not have to worry. Once you step into Changi Airport or if you coming by JB, you just have to take the MRT to city area like; Orchard, Somerset, Raffles, City Hall, Bugis.. There have plenty of hotels……

Compare your hotel rate:

Q&A: Is this the solution to our economic problems?

Question by going postal: Is this the solution to our economic problems?
Bush Outsources Deficit
April 1, 2008

AP Washington, DC — The White House announced today that President Bush will be sending legislation to Congress to outsource the deficit.

“Outsourcing is the solution to all of America’s problems,” said President Bush. “If it worked for Andersen and McKinsey, it works for me.”

Bush’s announcement is a dramatic extension of the Administration’s growing support for offshore outsourcing, an increasing trend that has moved hundreds of thousands of jobs in manufacturing and service sectors from the U.S. to lower wage countries. In December, the Commerce Department hosted workshops at the 2007 Economic and Trade Conference to train American companies in outsourcing and to specifically encourage the exportation of jobs to China.

In February, the President’s Chief Economic Advisor said the “movement of U.S. factory jobs and white-collar work to other countries is a positive transformation.”
On an official trip to India in March, Secretary of State Rice promised that the Administration would continue to support the outsourcing of American jobs.

How outsourcing works for America Bush also explained why the world must take responsibility for America’s deficit. “Why should every kid born in America be stuck with $ 35,000 in debt — when we can just outsource it and stick it to every kid on the planet?”

President Bush also indicated that outsourcing the deficit could help support multilateral cooperation in the war on terror. “And make sure that other countries pick up the tab for the war on terror — that’s multilateral cooperation for ya’!”

President Bush’s new plan flies in the face of Democrats’ criticisms that providing economic incentives for companies to outsource risks America’s prospects for economic recovery.
I didn’t make this up, I am just referencing an actual story
