Petitions to Keep Starbucks Stores Open: Craziness or Caffeine Addiction?
Question by Good?Gyrl: Petitions to keep Starbucks stores open: Craziness or Caffeine Addiction?
I read in the Wall Street Journal that there are groups around the country circulating petitions and calling Starbucks’ headquarters trying to stop them from closing stores. Are they insane? Coffee is NOT that important. I think it’s ridiculous! They have more than enough stores – for example, Chicago and NY: you can’t walk 5 city blocks without finding at least THREE or more Starbucks stores. I think it’s insanity. Do you think it’s time they closed, or are you sad?

Could I Afford to Live Comfortably in New York City With This Occupation and Income?
Question by PER92: Could I afford to live comfortably in New York City with this occupation and income?
I am hoping to become an Urban Planner. According to PayScale.com, the average salary for those with 20 years of experience is US$ 97,250. How far out from New York City would I have to be to live comfortably on that income? Could I live comfortably in Manhattan, or Brooklyn or Queens?
Also, is it common for people to start out living maybe an hour away from NYC somewhere in the metropolitan area and then as their income rises move closer in over time?
Is There Someone Here Who Can Tell Me How to Find Drug Rehabs in Gridley, California?
Question by aja np: Is there someone here who can tell me how to find drug rehabs in Gridley, California?
I have a friend whom I haven’t had contact with in years. Recently, though, someone told me that he was spotted at a drug rehab in Gridley, probably working there as a counselor. Since I will be visiting someone else in California, I think I might as well go and see my friend too. This is why I want to find the available drug rehabs there.

The most recent I could find for the US has the figures for 1997:
“A study shows that the U.S. spent a combined $ 11.9 billion on alcohol and drug abuse treatment, while the total social costs were more than $ 294 billion. The results were part of the National Estimates of Expenditures for Substance Abuse Treatment, 1997, which was released at the end of April by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s Center for Substance Abuse Treatment.
