I have been a financial supporter of RAWA for several months now and am awed by your accomplishments. I love to see the stories of all the good that comes from the support from world residents that have heartfelt goodwill for Afghans. And there are many of us. As for the religious hatred--these people--no matter their religion-- are nuts. To blame Afghans for the terrorist attacks is ridiculous. Afghans are just as much victims as the people that died on 9/11. How I wish the name calling and finger pointing would just stop and the compassionate people visiting this site would just have kind and encouraging words for each other. The world is in crisis--can't we just be kind to one another and show RAWA some respect in the process.

Mr USA

Someone sent me an anti-Islam site with RAWA photos on it...did RAWA authorize use of the photos?
Kelly Bravo Mim, What Taliban did is cursed in the Qur'an, God has cursed people who cause oppression, attrocities and killings on innocent humans. Muslims candemn those kind of acts like animals., No religion can accept their cruelty. God punished them as they deserved. I am glad that justice was
U.S. ties with Saudi Arabia are at a "crisis stage," over reports a Saudiprincess may have been a source of funds for two 9/11hijackers, Sen. JosephLieberman says.As I forecast, US will always looking with this possibily to touch Saudi."So all MUSLIM in the world we must unite to support USA so they can put US army insite MACCA and OIC will said "oooo..I See".
Thank god the Miss World Pageant moved to LONDON it realy suitable this kind of event move to KAFIR country suitable with the moral in it. I hope in future this kind of event should always done in KAFIR and KUFAR country not in any MUSLIM country. My ALLAH LAKNAT U all
To Shelly S.
Yeh ur right.the main denger now is USA.Busy body..that why no other country like them..huakkkkkk..You see how those extrimise USA wrote...look like they are from mental hospital.
a pure muslim
u r all against islam but b aware that this religion is always the best noone can harm it...........
screw u, doesn't matter biatch
Shelly, you took my words right out of my mouth! I am FULLY supporting your opinions because I too share them strongly. It is fukked that the Taliban think that they are ALL MIGHTY! If I was in afghanistan right now, I'd bitch slap em so hard, that i'd send them to an early grave! They are disgustingly cruel. Why would people kill innocent men, women, and especially children. And the point you (shelly) made about the religion not supporting such actions, was excellent. I agree with you 110% and feel that these ignorant uneducated taliban will suffer for the pain they have put so many others through. ALL HOMO'S SUPPORTING THE TALIBAN CAN SUCK MY &*%$ .... u fukkin pricks!!!

Judging by some of the pictures posted on Rawa, it is clear how sick and depraved the Talibans and fundamentalists, who reak devastation on civilians, really are. The talibans, and those who support them, are weak, insecure and inhumane bastards that deserve to suffer the same way they have made others suffer. They have slayed women, men and even poor defenseless children. These sick bastards justify their actions in the name of religion. However, no religion promotes rape, murder, violence, or brutal discrimination against women. These terrorists are not serving their religion, but rather, are using religion to excuse their sick, demented actions. What goes around comes around, and once these bastards get theres 10 times worse, they will be forced to realize that their actions were not religiously motivated, because the religion that they claim to be serving, does not approve of such behaviour, and instead will leave these animals rotting in hell.
yo bogdon... dumb asss foo...... u sould so gay.... u make no sense at all... if you are in ESL class, stay in it.... I AM TRYING TO HELP YOU BIITCH.. YOU NEED HELP... and once again everyone... I AMMMMMMM CANADIAAAANNNN

Shelly S. (to Bogdan)
Listen Bogdan, you're a complete and utter moron.....do you even know what the hell you're talking about? Cuz we sure as hell don't. And why the hell are you questioning Rawa helping women? Do you not see that theres something wrong with the situation in Afghanistan if someone can be killed, as you say, for helping a rape victim. I think you answred your own question, as to why Rawa is helping women. Its b/c there is a need for change and women must be liberated all over......dumb ass!

I would like to know someting... this RAWA is helping just womens?If yes I would like to ask "Why to help somebody just because she was lucky to be born like a female" Do you know what will happen if RAWA will help a women that pretend (just for fun) that she was ripped by somebody... The afgani will kill that person! have a veritable nice day, and take careMuslims are respecting someone just because she was lucky to be born like a muslim! So... what the hell you whant to help?

By the way the bottom of my previous posting is what kelly the idiot wrote, i pasted it to show her baseless argument.

One hundred people burned alive by religious extremists in Nigeria protesting aginst a "Miss World Pageant". I am sorry if that upsets me. I am equally sorry that I do not see condemnation of these acts, which seem to come from the Waahaabi group of Islamic mullahs, from Islamic nations and Islamic leaders. I don't know what to do about world peace. I just know that this is a crummy situation.
Kelly, you and I are the middle people who burn inside ourselves seeing tragedies in the world. What would you do if had the authority to bring peace, and to midiate in a fair way to promote better relations between the angry

Today, in Lebanon, a Muslim fundamentalist shot to death an American Nurse names Bonnie Penner, who worked at a missionary clinic. Yes, Muslim Fundamentalists males are certainly a great asset to the planet. I am speechless at the horrors perpetrated by Islam. And no, honey. The rest of the planet isn't involved in the fifteen century. Barbarism. Plain and simple.

Yes...umm...these friendly wonderful Islamic fundamentalists tried to burn the workers at a McDonalds Restaurant alive in Saudi Arabia because they were open during Ramadan. If you are a muslim and thinking of immigrating to the United States please do not do so. You are about as welcome as a screen door in a submarine. The only delight I had was when I saw a muslim wearing one of those veils in a supermarket and told her she was foolish to do so and her big brave muslim husband came over and shoved all five foot one and ninety eight popunds of me, and then the nice Christian police officer locked up the big brave Muslim, who did not have his immigration papers exactly in order. There was a plea bargain this week. The brave Muslim will do eight months in prison (actually jail) and will be deported back to Yemen to amuse himself with cow dung or perhaps open a deli and say to himself: "I coulda' been a contender." Anyways, if you are Islamic please don't visit us. Please don't expect to find a happy welcome here in the good ole U.S.A. ---- Not since September 11th.

I just finished reading the interviews with the prostitutes. Getting to know each individual woman better made me realize just how close to home the situation in your country actually is. Although I come from an educated, middle class family with good morals and values, I had problems with men in my late teens. Actually, I've had problems with men all throughout my life, but in my late teens, I not only lost my virginity to a complete stranger, but proceeded to have sexual intercourse with six other strange men. I totally regret my decisions and my actions, but with the help of my parents, my friends, my sisters, my doctors, nurses, and my councelors, and God, I returned to having a normal, respectable, life. I am at an all women's college now and my life is much better. I cry a lot at night and think about my past mistakes and sometimes I feel such strong hatred towards men that I become physically ill. Nothing can come of this. Studying and helping others is far more productive and better for my own health and the health of those around me. Visiting your website every so often and counting my blessings has also helped me enormously. I am sorry to say that for a while I didn't realize what horrendous trials the people of your country had to endure. I am also sorry to admit that although I felt sad for all the suffering people of Afganistan, that I did not really do anything, and that after a while I forgot about you and went on with my own life. Please know that there is a higher power who watches everything and who knows everything, even all the little thoughts that run in our heads. There are many people who care for you who have lent their hand to help you already, and there will be many more. I will stretch forth my hand this time to help you in the best way that I can. I love you very much and care for you RAWA and the people of Afganistan.
p.s. you are a fukin homo MR USA... piece of ####!!! peace
Mr. CANADA (MTR)
yo Mr USA... I find you very amusing. You act like a bad ass and express your opinions to FUKIN openly! "I love USA the most strongest country in the world...Anyone talk much, react much,Not in line with us "WAR"...will come to them" Mr USA. Although you had "hehe" at the end of your msg, I still think you were speakin from the heart. USA may be strong, but they are only superficially strong. US has no spine (backbone). They will attack countries that are weak or vulnerable. I am sure you are so proud of that eh? Just because you watch US media, does not mean that everything you hear is true. US has been given a STRONG image by US alone, and not by anyone else. Dropping bombs on Japan,yugo, Afghanistan, etc does not make US strong. I think it makes them weaker. I think in time, when other countries begin to grow, US will shrink. I have no hatred towards US, but i hate when people big up US too much! I AM CANADIAAAAANNN!!!!
Shelly S. (to cupcake Kelly)
You obviously have no idea what you're talking about. Although, I share your ideas that there should be social equality between men and women, I do not agree with your views on Islam. First of all, the Islamic religion does not promote gender inequality, it is actually the extremists (Talibans), who interpret the religion to fit their sick beliefs. So when you say "It is only in the last two years that I have realized that Islam appears to be a malignancy, no different from a cancer cell, that must be burned from the planet and incinerated by anyone who believes in right, truth and human civilization.", you simply prove how uneducated, ignorant and foolish you really are. You obviously know nothing about Islam, and the way you've been promoting the U.S, you obviousy know nothing about it either. Gender inequality is woven into the core of U.S society. For example, look at the composition of United States' Supreme courts, or the wage discrepencies between men and women. Therefore, according to your uneducated, ignorant theory the U.S, too, "should be burned from the face of the planet" MORON!!!!
reffy is writing a real posting now.... amazing!!!!

Mr. USA needs a lesson or two in grammar. Can't write worth ####.
Dear Rawa Salam, I am sking you to extend my time in expressing my opinion better in little detail about our Afghan culture or religion to those that have not enough information about us. People blindly make judgments about the people of Afghanistan. Now Afghans are not against women's freedom, we want women to share knowledge with men.

Conni, Human beings are shared bodies, when a part hurts it affects the rest of the body.

To Mamnoon!I do believe that it is not religion which is our problem. I do not believe in any god - am I bad? I do belive in all people in the world to live the way they want to, whatever their way is. Freedom is what you want to have. Whatever your religion is. Whatever your culture is.What I want is to help you to get your freedom the way YOU want, without me or my culture to tell you how to do or what it is. Find your own way
To Rawa: Insulting religion whether it is Islam, Christianity, Jeudism or Buddhism must be erased to avoid confrontation. I love all human beings and I think prejudice is a crime. Only God knows what religion is best. whoever follows his orders is b

Cancer Health Center
Study: BPA Is in Wide Variety of Paper Products
Dec. 2, 2011 -- It seems there's no escaping the chemical bisphenol A (BPA), which is used to make plastics like water bottles and to coat the insides of aluminum cans.
Now a new study shows that BPA is also in a wide variety of paper products, including napkins, toilet paper, tickets, food wrappers, newspapers, and printer paper.
"The concentrations are very high in the paper products," says study researcher Kurunthachalam Kannan, PhD, a research scientist at the New York State Department of Health.
Kannan tested more than 200 paper samples from 15 different types of products.
He found BPA levels in paper that were 100 to 1 million times higher than amounts detected in canned and packaged foods.
The study is published in the journal Environmental Science and Technology.
Researchers say that because only a fraction of that is absorbed through the skin, most people probably pick up far less BPA handling paper than they do from their diets.
But those amounts may wind up being significant for people like cashiers or printers who have to touch a lot of BPA-tainted paper as part of their jobs.
"We've been focused on food, but there could be certain groups of people that could be exposed through other routes and other sources," says Joseph Braun, PhD, a research fellow at the Harvard School of Public Health, who is studying how BPA may affect kids' behavior. He was not involved in the latest study.
In Braun's studies, pregnant women who worked as cashiers had BPA levels that were about 30% higher than pregnant women who had different kinds of jobs.
BPA in Recycled Paper
How did BPA get into paper? Probably recycling, researchers say.
A thin coating of powdered BPA is used on some kinds of heat-sensitive paper, like cash register receipts, shipping labels, and lottery tickets.
Researchers estimate that tossed thermal paper contributes about 33.5 tons of BPA to the environment each year.
About 30% of thermal paper winds up being recycled, introducing BPA into many different kinds of items.
That's concerning, researchers say, because BPA is chemically similar to the hormone estrogen. It has been linked to problems with reproduction and sexual development, to behavioral and developmental problems in young children, and to some kinds of cancer.

High voltage, big price
Report says cost to move wind power is $3 billion
A $3 billion network of new high-voltage power lines across the Dakotas, Minnesota, Iowa and Wisconsin would help improve the flow of wind power across the upper Midwest and beyond, a new report says.
That price is the total amount that would be spent to build six 345,000-volt lines that could be proposed across the five states, including two projects in Wisconsin. Utility regulators endorsed the idea of expanded transmission in those corridors in a report issued Thursday.
Regulators have spent the past two years studying improvements to the power grid that may be needed to help connect more than 15,000 megawatts of wind development that could occur across the region.
Under a proposal with federal energy regulators , the cost of those projects would be divided across the greater Midwest region that stretches from Pennsylvania to Montana.
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission has yet to rule on how the projects would be paid for, but a good rule of thumb is that Wisconsin's share of the tab would be about 15%, or $450 million for the six projects.
Groups representing manufacturers in Wisconsin and other Midwest states, however, say their energy costs shouldn't have to rise further to pay to meet renewable power mandates.
In a filing with the federal commission, the Wisconsin Industrial Energy Group noted that state utility customers have been paying billions for transmission upgrades over the past decade and that the state's factory sector has been hit hard by the Great Recession.
The utility regulators' report doesn't endorse specific projects or lines.
The group agreed that expanding the power line network would add value to the region by enabling utilities to buy low-cost power on the Midwest wholesale market, "and to move power not only within the five states but to ultimately provide a backbone for export outside the five-state region," said Eric Callisto, who co-chaired the five-state collaborative.
The two Wisconsin projects are 345,000-volt lines that link Madison and northeast Iowa and another linking Madison and La Crosse. The two projects are projected to cost $811 million. Other projects would move power from North Dakota to South Dakota, from western Iowa to eastern Iowa, and from southwestern Minnesota to southeastern Minnesota.
American Transmission Co. is contemplating building both of those lines, and cited those two projects as the reason for a big jump in the cost of its 10-year system plan. The ATC 10-year plan this fall is projected at $3.4 billion, up from 40% from a $2.5 billion plan announced a year ago.
The Pewaukee power-line utility also recently announced it plans to build the $425 million Madison-La Crosse line, with public outreach meetings starting this week.
The transmission line proposals are expected to generate controversy because they would add costs for ratepayers already used to a series of price increases over the past 10 years. In addition, opposition is expected from residents and environmentalists.
The report was released days after customer groups raised objections to Alliant Energy Corp.'s Minnesota wind farm, saying Wisconsin customers won't see the benefits of the Bent Tree Wind Farm because of transmission constraints in that area.
This week, a coalition of labor, renewable energy and business groups announced their backing of ATC's La Crosse to Madison effort.
"ATC's initial results show that this project has the potential for improving electric reliability in Wisconsin, reducing energy congestion, and saving electric customers money," said Brandon Scholz, President and CEO of the Wisconsin Grocers Association.
The parts of the upper Midwest best equipped for a big expansion in wind power are the windiest areas, as well as those areas that are located farther from dense population centers where proposals to build wind farms generate protests, the new report found.
"Parts of Iowa, Minnesota, and the Dakotas are blessed with strong winds. Right now most of these areas are not well integrated into the regional transmission system," said Michael Vickerman, head of the advocacy group Renew Wisconsin.

Tiznow wins again. In a year with numerous memorable moments, it was Tiznow's dramatic victory over Sakhee in the Breeders' Cup Classic that was voted the National Thoroughbred Racing Association's (NTRA) Moment of the Year.Tiznow's connections will be honored at the Eclipse Award Dinner on February 18 in Miami Beach with the "NTRA Moment of the Year" award, as voted by the fans at the NTRA's web site, ntra.com. Voters had to choose from 10 entries:* "Seabiscuit" moves into the top spot on The New York Times Bestseller list.
* Monarchos wins the Kentucky Derby in the second swiftest renewal ever.
* Point Given rolls to a devastating 12 1/4-lengths victory in the Belmont Stakes.
* Bobby Frankel wins two Grade I races on opposite coasts on the same day, both via disqualification (Aptitude, Senure).
* Point Given wins his fourth straight grade I, million-dollar race in the Travers Stakes.
* The Thoroughbred racing industry raises over $13 million in support of
the September 11th victims.
* Squirtle Squirt breaks the Breeders' Cup jinx for Bobby Frankel in the
Penske Auto Centers Breeders' Cup Sprint.
* Undefeated colt Johannesburg shocks Officer and others, drawing away to win the Bessemer Trust Breeders' Cup Juvenile.
* Foreign invaders capture a third straight race in the World Thoroughbred Championships as Fantastic Light wins the Breeders' Cup Turf for Team Godolphin.
* Tiznow takes the Breeders' Cup Classic for a second straight year, coming back against Arc winner Sakhee. Tiznow's victory received 53% of the vote, finishing well ahead of Point Given's Belmont Stakes victory, which came in second in the balloting. Tiznow and Point Given are two of the three finalists, along with Johannesburg, for 2001 Horse of the Year. This is the second consecutive "NTRA Moment of the Year" award for Tiznow. Last year, the stretch run of the 2000 Breeders' Cup Classic, in which Tiznow held off the challenge of Ireland's Giant's Causeway, was selected as the winner. The first-ever "NTRA Moment of the Year" was Chris Antley holding up Charismatic's leg following the 1999 Belmont Stakes, possibly saving the horse's life. "The NTRA Moment of the Year award is a great way for the fans to play an active role in the Eclipse Awards ceremony," said Keith Chamblin, NTRA senior vice president-industry relations and marketing. "The Tiznow-Sakhee stretch duel was clearly a moment to remember and years from now, racing fans will look back and recall the stretch duel between Tiznow and Sakhee as one of the most exciting races in Breeders' Cup history, complete with all of the international flavor and spectacle synonymous with the Breeders' Cup World Thoroughbred Championships."

Setback For Kronwall

Kronwall still practiced and hopes to return Friday against St. Louis. But, the Wings aren't going to take any chances. Tomas Holmstrom will return vs. the Canucks, unless he has a setback during the morning skate.Also, according to Khan(!), the Wings intend to use Dominik Hasek in a backup capacity on the nights he doesn't start, risking the dreaded "cold entry groin pull."

Anyone was welcome to go to the Mountain Dew Skate Park at 5 o'clock where the walk began, and volunteer Tom Kurdy encouraged everyone to wear their Livestrong Yellow.
"It is now worldwide on October 2nd Livestrong Cancer Support Day," said Kurdy. "And it's to support the people who have cancer, the survivors."
The national foundation asked supporters and survivors to tweet and Facebook about the event Tuesday. For each post, sponsors and donors, pledged to donate $1 to the Lance Armstrong Foundation up to $100,000. The goal was surpassed early Tuesday afternoon.

Rhizophora mangle flowers are thought to be self pollinated or wind pollinated. Following fertilization, mangrove propagules undergo continuous development from flower to germinated seedling while still attached to the parent plant, with no dormant or seed phase, thus exhibiting vivipary. The seedlings, or propagules, eventually fall from the parent plant and are able, in the absence of suitable substrata, to float for extended periods (over a year) in salt water without rooting.

Most Helpful
Wonderful tangy salad and a great new twist on our favorite waldorf salad. Love the craisins in the mix. We enjoyed this as part of our Christmas dinner. A 5-star winner with everyone. Thanks, from the Wilsons.
Wow! This is quite refreshing! It is a nice variation on the typical Waldorf salad with the cranberries giving it a nice tang, and the grapes giving a hint of sweetness. I followed this recipe exactly, except I toasted my walnuts for 12 minutes at 350F before putting them in the salad (makes them crunchier). What a keeper! Thanks for a wonderful recipe!
This is a winner. I enjoyed the dried cranberrys instead of raisins (I added a few extra). Also, the mixture of mayonnaise and sour cream makes a great dressing. Very easy to make.

Historical Traveler Reviews Slieve Donard Resort and Spa Newcastle
Excellent spring break
I have just returned from spending the weekend 8/9 April 05 in the Slieve Donard it was a super break the ambience was perfect huge homely fires in all the reception areas library and dining rooms. We had a newly refurbished room and the views were spectacular. I will certainly return to this hotel as I found the staff extremely helpful and welcoming and the food especially the gala buffet on the Saturday was excellent.
Not the warm welcome I expected
I recenty took my wife to the Slieve Donard for a suprise night away, it was our anniversary and the first night away without our baby daughter. So expectations were high, the impression from the web site and reviews looked good. The experience was not up to the expectations.
I had booked 7 weeks in advance using a discount rate offered to the company I work for, however I had paid an extra �20 a night for a sea view room. The girl taking the booking told me the sea view rooms were spacious with large windows over looking the sea, just the ticket for our night away. I heard the food was good and she indicated the a la carte menu was �29.50 per head.
Check in is 3.00pm we arrived at 2.30, the foreign receptionist was tying a bill into the computer, I stood at the desk for probably a minute before she acknowledged my presence, no eye contact, just said "hold on". Eventually when she had finshed she took my name and checked the computer and asked if we would take a seat on the sofa opposite reception and she would check with house keeping if the room was ready.
Ten minutes later I had finshed reading the paper and my wife had checked out ever function room on the ground floor. Others were merrily checking in, when i went to the desk for an update she asked for my name again, she had clearly forgotten about us. Five minutes later keys are issued and we head for our room 319.
Surprise surprise, it is a pokey small back room with two high level windows with a view of a wall, never stay in this room unless it is dark when you arrive and leave! we never got throught the door.
Back to reception! this time we got the reception manageress. I showed her my booking confirmation that clearly stated "we take pleasure in confirming your booking a for a double room with sea view" For ten minutes she poked at the computer and consulted in the back office and eventually gave us room 420.
Never once did she apologise for the error or the delay or inconvenience, in fact i felt like I was inconveniencing her, it was the most un welcoming arrival I have ever had at a hotel and I have stayed in a lot of hotels. We were almost ready to go home. You could almost read her mind" you are on an offer rate you should not expect to actually stay in the hotel and I am doing you a favour by letting you in"
All the sea view rooms on the 1st , 2nd and 3rd third floors have lovely big windows, 4th floor rooms are in the roof space! However after 30 minutes of check in we were glad to get a room at all.
For a 4 star hotel it was just OK, at best, the water marks on the ceiling and the hole in the wall where the door handle hits it were bad, the pale blue bathroom suite with cream tiles and swathes of 1970's beige Formica were not to my taste. However the bed was comfortable and the room was clean although not very spacious.
The food was very good however it was a buffet not the A la carte i had been advised, the service in the restarurant was outstanding.
All in all would I go back, probably not, the experience was not up the expectation as is all to often the case with hotels in Northern Ireland.
Very nice hotel, if a bit frayed at the edges
The hotel building is beautiful, and its location right on the Irish Sea is excellent. The views from the beach right in front of the hotel are striking.
The service at the hotel was fantastic. I had a hard time finding it, but one of the staff members talked me in when I called from the cell phone. The babysitter that we had asked for in advance was in the hotel when we arrived, awaiting us in the lobby. (They had asked her to stay when they spoke to me on my mobile phone.) The babysitter was great. They made a dinner reservation for us when we inquired at the desk about restaurants.
Since we were there during the middle of the week at the end of November 2004, they gave us a great corner room on a high floor. The room was pretty nice. It was very clean, and the bed was comfortable. It looks like they might fix it up a bit more if they every get more money. Our room did not have hot water, we discovered, but someone came up and gave us a key to another nearby room to shower. We were very pleased with this hotel, and we would stay there again. The town of Newcastle seemed really rather unlively at this time of year, however.
I stayed at the Slieve Donard last weekend and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. I attended a wedding there about 2 years ago, and whilst the service was very friendly and bedrooms very clean I felt it lacked something. On this ocassion it's like a new hotel and can only agree with the last number of comments. The standard of food was excellent, we dined at the Grand Buffet they serve on a Saturday night and the choice was amazing, and what's more the service has even improved on our last stay! To top it all, the location is possibly the most picturesque I have ever stayed in, so congrats to the management, they've obviously been working hard.
Improved standards now match the setting.
Having stayed in the Slieve Donard regularly over the last five or so years I must say that I have no qualms about recommending this hotel. On my most recent visit, my first time at a wedding there, I found the staff friendly, warm and efficient without any of the officiousness found at other similar sized hotels. With a mix of Irish charm and wit on reception, and the continental waiting staff who really knew their stuff in the restaurant, it was professional all the way.
The level of quality and service have improved markedly over the last couple of years, and many of the earlier reviews I read here are simply outdated.
If you want to stay somewhere with all the services that a large hotel can offer, while maintaining all the personality and personability of a small one, this is the place for you.
Great Hotel
I stayed here a few weeks back at a wedding and loved the place. Fantastic location and friendly staff. I stayed there on a golf weekend a few years back and the place seems to have improved a lot. Recommended.
Terrible service
This place needs to seriously improve the quality of it's customer service. Rooms are clean and comfortable and more or less quiet unless you happen to coincide with one of the countless weddings that are held there all year round. However the staff as with all in Hastings group are dry, unhelpful and need to improve. I struggled past three idle porters with a heavy case, no one offered any help, I was then told how to get to my room up several floors and through many corridors, again no help offered. I arrived at my room only to find that it was already occupied !! Thankfully the occupant wasn't actually there, but it could have been embarassing. They upgraded me to a new room , without mentioning the consequent hike in the already ridiculously expensive price & They tried to charge me the higher rate when I checked out !!
Quality of room service food also needs alot of work.
I have never read so much rubbish in my life about this hotel. I stay here several times a year and have never had any problems at all. The hotel is beautiful and the staff very helpful and friendly - if only some Scottish people would learn from their hospitality!! The food is great and Newcastle itself is a lovely town with fabulous beaches - thoroughly recommend it to anyone....
Hmmm...yes, nasty it is
Yes, the staff are clueless at this hotel which looks so nice from the outside. They seem hellbent on reaching the nadir of standards in all aspects. This hotel should ONLY be frequented by mad golfers [with early teetimes] looking for punishment at County Down. There are much nicer places to stay in/near Newcastle if you check the B+B's.
Newcastle nice - slieve dondard nasty
The Slieve Donard building is quite honestly beautiful, the mournes are breathtaking and newcastle a friendly and lively place, however I had problems with my stay. After standing outside my room for twenty minutes (the key failing to work!) my husband and I were confronted with, flies. The room was filled with flies, when I asked what had happened they just said to me that it had been a warm weekend and this happens!! Room 2, seemed fine but the heating broken. Room 3, just minor things this time, no towels waited 2hours for room service and our "DM" "Phillip" was arrogant and un-helpful. I would return to Newcastle but never again the Slieve Donard.

Dr. King's Stance Against the Death Penalty

Paulina Gonzalez: What if Occupy locked arms with community groups and announced its refusal to move unless the city extends and agrees to enforce the moratorium on the eviction of tenants in bank-controlled foreclosed properties?
Two Ways to Destroy "Occupy Wall Street"
Bruce Reilly: The classic method of the powerful to distract the masses is to get them to fight amongst themselves. The easiest one is via racism, and the other is class warfare pitting the Middle Class vs. Lower Class.

Occupy Movement at the Crossroads
Randy Shaw: Successful movements must be flexible enough to change tactics in the face of roadblocks, and activists' camping in public spaces is not strategically necessary for the Occupy movement's success.

This series of two-hand rods designed by Dec Hogan, Tim Rajeff and a handful of other spey-casting samurai.
Your first thought might be Why? But rest assured, the soul of the original medium-fast action DH series was not lost. The advancements in casting techniques and modern fly lines just inspired us to update and redesign this popular lineup. Dubbed the DH II, they provide a slightly crisper action, enhanced tip recovery, wider grain window, and a scary-wicked color scheme. More distance with ease sums up our whole thought process with the DH II series. Bonus: Only since the evolution of modern spey lines has it been possible to build a true tweener rod, thus the 6.5 line designation. The gap between 6- and 7-weight two-handed rods has always left anglers searching for either a bigger six or smaller seven. Search no more, the 6.5 will definitely become the lower 48 meat-and-potatoes Summer Steelhead stick.

Best Miami Sol Player
Debbie Black is not only the shortest player in the WNBA at 5-foot-3 but she also has suffered ten broken noses during her 14-year professional basketball career. Her fans at AmericanAirlines Arena sit together in a black-and-blue section, where they tally the number of times she hits the floor in a game. A huge banner sports one Band Aid-style cross for each crash; her record is 16, in the 2001 opening game against rival New York Liberty. She usually gets possession of the ball and comes up grinning, though sometimes stitches are required. Her dives are not in vain. Black, or "The Pest," as she's known to many fans, led the league last year for steals and was named WNBA Defensive Player of the Year. Her take on her lack of height? It's an advantage. "I'm the closest player to the floor," she says. Not that she's all sweetness and light. When Liberty guard Teresa Weatherspoon missed a shot just before the half-time buzzer on July 22 and shoved Black to the ground in frustration, our homegirl got up, turned around, and gave chase. Black didn't hit T-Spoon, but seven technical fouls split between the two teams later, the Sol guard had proven she's no pushover. Unlike the Heat, who occupy the AmericanAirlines Arena the rest of the year, the Black-led Sol made the playoffs in 2001, its second year in the league. Not bad for a team that was predicted to come in last during its freshman year; it ended that season with a double-overtime win and the best record of four expansion teams. Under Black's leadership last year, it became the first 2000 expansion team to make the playoffs.
