In the past 15 years, whordes of russians have taken over every apartment they can cram 5-9 people into. If you're looking around Oakland avenue, capitol drive, wilson drive, and murray street across from the police station, you will not be able to throw a stick without hitting some goon with lots of gel in their hair, and a cheap chain around their neck.ruskieruski Don't expect any of them to speak decent english to you either, and wear a raincoat as they spit.
If you like coffee, enjoy, there is a Starbucks, Stone Creek, Alterra, as well as a few other small shops. Don't get hit by Nancy Northshore in her BMW SUV when she's swingining wildly out the parking lot though, she's late for Zumba(or some other crap) but still needs her $14 coffee.

Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
