After she got her hands on some money and bought a lottery ticket, Allana struck big, winning the prize and now

Although one would most likely envision the picturesque Lady Liberty, the lofty Empire State Building, or even a humble Sabrett Stand upon hearing “New York City”, nothing serves as a better icon of the grand city than power outages. Being born and raised in the South Bronx, Fordham Manor specifically, I have experienced a substantial number of power outages that would occur frequently not only in my neighborhood but various other communities of the Bronx as well.

The Mad Ones & American Nostalgia If you head towards downtown New York City--towards the old, brick buildings where artists of all kind seem to flock--you may stumble upon on of the many experimental theatre groups that call this area their home.

Located in the province of Alberta, the cities of Calgary and Edmonton have reached a high level of urban development based on the extraction of natural materials.
