Question by 0: Is Sydney a rat race? Is it child friendly?

I have been offered a job there – is it child friendly? Need to live on a wage of 100000 dollars for a family of five.

My wife is at home with babies so needs lots of mum and baby groups, Inc mum bub exercise classes like buggy fit, outdoor swimming, yoga bikram, places to cycle, good public transport links and cycle paths, green space and parks…

We’re also needing to know what schools are like – are they a good standard? Is bullying bad?

Is crime worse in sydney than say, Perth or Melbourne?

Is there any good cultural spots? Like art centers, theatres?

Is it a safe?

Is there good community spirit? We’re looking for a church to be the heart of our lives.

Question by nikkigirl500: PLEASE READ, please please please I need help now?

I’m going on a trip, I’m going from where I live to L.A (just for a carry over flight) than from L.A to Australlia, I’ll be in Australlia for about 6 days, than from Australlia to New Zealand, also staying for about 6 days, than from New Zealand to Fiji, staying for about 3 days. Than I’m going back to the USA.

I’ll also be having a private viewing of the sydney opera house, going to the outside of the tallest building in Sydney, and I’ll be one of the only people ever to get to go outside of it (other than workers.) I’ll get to stay in pretty nice hotels except for in Fiji where I’ll be staying in huts on the beach, I’ll be snorkling on the grat barrior reef, I’ll be street luging down a mountain, I’ll be training with olympians at the famous olympic stadium in Australlia, I’ll be meeting the New Zealand rugby team The All Blacks, I’ll be sailing on ocean-racing yachts in the sydney harbor, I’ll be repelling down a cliff in New Zealand, and meeting with native Fijians and doing
fun stuff. Sorry if I sound like I’m bragging and I guess I am a little but I have to mention all this stuff for my big question.

All of this will cost ,500, this also includes food , is this a bad price, okay price, average price, good price, or great price, I’ll also be getting 1 year worth of high school elective credits and 1 college journalism credit (what I’ll major in)

thnx

I know I asked this before but I like what I titled this question more, I think it will be more intruiging
thnx to the people who were nice and didn’t say you’re just bragging, I’m only 13, I don’t know if this is a good price for sure. I just needed some advice and many of you were very immature about it. Well it’s your loss, not only are you being rude but you’re waisting my time having to read your answers, of course I’m bragging a little but this mainly is about price, I mean I can’t help but brag to write something like this, I have to list everything I’m doing. Oh well, u won’t be getting “best answer”
most of u were very nice though it’s just the 3 or so of u who were rude.
also, I do realize I was bragging and that’s wrong and I’m sorry, it’s just that I’m excited, I’ve rarely been out of the Country and when I did it was Canada and the bahamas, still I’m a kid, we brag when we’re really really excited and you don’t want to tell your friends because you don’t tell your friends because you don’t want them to think your bragging so you tell strangers. I really didn’t mean to brag though, and if I offended anyone I’m sorry but you didn’t have to comment on that is all.

Is this an actual question? Or are you just thinking that you have it cool? I did stuff like that when I was 14…goodie for you. How long is this actual trip? It sounds kind of short for such a large amount of money…is it a school trip?

What do you think? Answer below!

Preview of World’s First Rotating Skyscraper

PlusPreview of World’s First Rotating SkyscraperPreview of World’s First Rotating SkyscraperThe Associated PressArchitect Dr. David Fisher unveiled the Dynamic Tower, the world’s first building in motion. The rotate skyscrapers, which are planned worldwide, have floors which rotate independently to create a building that constantly changes shape. (June 24)Is it the skyscraper of the future? Or just a “pie in the sky” idea? Italian architect David Fisher unveiled in New York the design for what he’s calling the world’s first “building in motion.” It’s an 80-story residential tower with revolving floors, ostensibly set for construction in Dubai this fall. ((David Fisher, Architect)) “It’s the first building that is dynamic, changing its’ shape. You can adjust the shape any given moment.” Fisher says he is also slated to build one of the “dynamic” buildings in Moscow, and, he hopes, New York City. He says the buildings also double as power generators: wind turbines on every floor will provide power. “Wind has a very negative affect on skyscrapers we all know. So I say ‘why do we want to fight the wind?’ Why don’t we use the wind, to our own benefit? The Dubai condos are going for three-thousand dollars a square foot. Lifts will allow penthouse residents to park their cars right in their apartments. Fisher says the building parts will be prefabricated in a factory in Italy then assembled at the final location. The architect says he’d like to have the Dubai building ready to

Question by : Does Towing a manual Front 2WD Yaris damage it?

I had my car towed the other day, and it’s a 2010 Yaris manual, 2WD. I never park the car in neutral, as Sydney has hills etc, so it’s parked with hand-break and gear in first. Would it have done any damage to my car?

Taking a drive doesn’t feel like anything is out of the ordinary, but any thoughts, interms of steering column or transmission or breaks?

Best answer:

Answer by Mac Anic
They would have put the front wheels on trolleys, and thus, the front wheels wouldn’t have been on the road. I hope you have learnt not to park where you’re not supposed to.

More than 40 police officers were injured in Sydney in a riot sparked by the death of an Aboriginal teenager. Angry youths torched a railway station and pelted police with petrol bombs and lumps of concrete in the mainly Aborigine district of Redfern. Thomas Hickey, 17, died after he was impaled on a metal fence when he fell off his bike. Police deny claims he was being chased by officers at the time – 16 February 2004
