Westerners at home in Amman
Further out, a series of numbered traffic circles defines neighborhoods of modern apartments and villas. The city also is divided into east and west; with the west being the more affluent district.
Foreigners are allowed to buy property in Jordan if they have permission from the internal security department, which generally is not difficult for Westerners to obtain. However, they cannot resell properties for at least three years, a law designed to discourage speculation.
Pingeon and Lodge's apartment is close to the Fourth Circle and the Abdoun district of West Amman, which is popular among diplomats, executives and locals. Other such areas include Jebal Amman, the proper name of the old city center, and Dabouq. Residential sale prices in all areas of the city had increased in the past few years. more
Try to help educate owners of dogs
Many dog-owners live in condos, town-homes, or apartments where they do not have dog-runs or even yards. Should they be denied the joy and companionship of a canine friend?
Five- to 10-million adoptable animals in shelters are killed every year for lack of space. Should even more of them be denied homes? Even those who have yards still need to exercise themselves and their dogs. How do these writers know that the dog owners go directly home after the dog does its business? In my own neighborhood, about 40 percent of the homes have one or more dogs. I see very little dog droppings on my twice-daily walks. I do see droppings from raccoons, rabbits and geese, all of which are much more likely to cause disease. I agree that retractable leashes are a control problem if not used properly. moreBoy hit by car
He said older people live in the front row of apartments near the road, and families with children live more toward the center of the complex, where a playground is located.
Greene said he often listens to music in his van and never sees kids playing in the area.
''This isn't a play area,'' he said.
Police said speed was not a factor in the accident. A preliminary investigation indicated that the car's speed at the time of the crash was not excessive.
Amy Hoenstine, the mother of a 6-year-old boy, said her son rides his bike in the parking lot, but she keeps watch.
''I'm surprised something happened up here,'' she said, echoing Greene by saying that children often don't play in the front area of the complex. ''You don't see kids up in there too often.''

Previewing the Queer Takes film festival with curator Dean Otto
He's up against Rey and Leo—a couple of rotund gay men who are beloved for befriending the elders in the neighborhood who refuse to sell their apartments. Otto compares the film to early Pedro Almodóvar with its garish delights.
These films honor differences while celebrating commonalities. The 2008 Queer Takes features artistic cinema, simple entertainment, and documentaries that counter stereotypes by telling complex stories of struggle and enduring love—stories anyone with an open heart can relate to.

The fire started just before 9:30 Sunday morning at the Coventry Pointe Apartments in the 3300 block of West Wadley. Heavy smoke was reported pouring from the attic of building 11 where the fire started.
There were no injuries reported although one woman was taken to the hospital because her medication was in her apartment.
Firefighters were able to stop the fire from jumping to other buildings, but the fire was able to spread quickly due to a common space attic that ran from the north end to the south end of the building.
