Skip to comments.NH official calls Obama the n-word, won't apologize or resign
Posted on 05/19/2014 8:27:00 AM PDT by SeekAndFind
Faced by a hundred angry residents calling for his resignation, a Wolfeboro police commissioner staunchly refused to apologize or resign after referring to President Obama using the n-word.
According to an article in the Boston Globe, Robert J. Copeland, 82, one of three commissioners in the small town on the shores of Lake Winnepesaukee, used the racial slur in an email to the other commissioners.
I believe I did use the N-word in reference to the current occupant of the White House, Copeland said. For this, I do not apologize he meets and exceeds my criteria for such.
Copeland was re-elected to a second three-year term two months ago.
Of the towns 6,300 year-round residents, about 20 are black. New Hampshire as a whole is 94 percent white and about 1 percent black. None of the towns police officers are black, or members of any other minority.
(Excerpt) Read more at digitaljournal.com ...
Romney, and his vicious pro-OBama and pro-Soros Team,
were behind the Globe article lambasting the man
for a PRIVATE conversation.
Does the author identify the offender as a Republican or Conservative or Tea Party Blogger or any such thing?
Typically that sort of affiliation is mentioned within the first 4 or 5 words. But, in this case, it wasn't.
It was a private conversation and no one else's business.
Exactly. 0 has been "judged by the content of his character". (or lack thereof).
The N-word is only ascribed when the behavior matches the skin color. Even blacks know this. There are times when honesty needs to be brutal especially when it is warranted and well deserved. Hey call me a cracka all you want; it's not going to offend me one iota because it's not true and it's only a word...
No it's "creepy asz cracka"
If you 'hear' something, say something.
People in Red England are more likely to spy on their neighbors than any other region of the country. (Source: 'Day America Told the Truth'.)
Based on my experience; that statement is true.
"The N-word is only ascribed when the behavior matches the skin color."
I understand your point but that doesn't make the word any better. If the N-word applied strictly to a behavior and was used without regard to skin color, it would probably be OK. Terms like lazy, Marxist scumbag might be more appropriate, because they're free of racist connotations.
I respect it so much when someone refuses to apologize when it's demanded that they do so. That defeats the whole purpose of apologizing, even if one is truly sorry.
Must be "narcissist". What else could it be.
Oh the wailing and gnashing of teeth over truth and double standards.
More appropriate, if not more accurate, sure. In and of itself there's nothing wrong with a racist connotation if it isn't in-fact racist.
It's an adjective, just like "white POS", "white trash", "cracka", "trailer trash", etc.
Just because I refer to someone as a nigger doesn't mean I dislike all blacks. I only dislike the target of my ire.
This is purely anecdotal but I seem to have heard the n-word spoken much more in the last 5 - 6 years.
Can't account for it though.
I believe I did use the N-word in reference to the current occupant of the White House, Copeland said. For this, I do not apologize he meets and exceeds my criteria for such.
Ooooohhhhh, no...I'm afraid the correct word is "NAGGER, yeah, nagger."
But thank you for playing.
I understand uour point but maybe he said it because he wanted it to sting. Now this is not a word I use but I can understand why they might use it to describe one of the most evil and contemptable to ever walk the face of the earth.
At 82
EFF em
U go boy
Can I say boy?
Comments, x?
Hmmmm. That works at least as well as nebbish!
Terms like lazy, Marxist scumbag might be more appropriate, because theyre free of racist connotations.
Actually they're not...... not in the minds of people who just have to play the race card. I like "Marxist scumbag", but when I use it (note: "when" not "if") I'm accused of using that term about Dear Leader just because he's Black. You can't win.
Any criticism of Obama is considered racist. If they're going to hang you anyway, you might as well be guilty of something.
Just to make myself clear I have nothing against black people but I do against evil black people as well as any other color.
Inexcusable...especially in this day and age...
Nobody has identified his politics. Not one.
The town voted about 55 45 for the last Republican president. They ignore that split.
They just tout that it is an almost all white town, and therefore racist.
If a white person uses the n word he needs to lose his job?? Why do you suppose it's okay for blacks to use the n word and call whites honkies?
Reminds me of a joke card I once saw. A "teen" turkey walks into the room with his head down. The Mother turkey says, "But son, you shouldn't get upset when someone calls you a turkey; you ARE a turkey"......
"The N-word is only ascribed when the behavior matches the skin color. Even blacks know this. "
I have a very good Black friend. We have traveled together. When he goes into any public place "like a convenience store," he "greets" every other Black he passes with the words "Hi N-——er, how's it goin'." With Blacks, amongst themselves the word isn't a pejorative term, it's a "greeting." I've seen him greet his own grown children using the term.
I agree. A person can be 'black' in skin tone and not be worthy of the N-word. Clarence Thomas comes to mind. As do many other people.
The use of that word is reserved for the lowest, most hateful miscreants the race can produce.
Look... This crap of banning words is stupid. When does it stop. Freedom of speech means"freedom of speech." What I say in my house,or heard in a private conversion is protected. I hate when people use the F-word, but I don't get all worked up about it. When they try to ban a word , it makes the user that much more powerful. You give the word power. That's why calling a white man a Cracker mean nothing to us. We refuse to give the user any power over us.
"You're white, go to hell!!!"
- Dallas County Commissioner (Black) John Wiley Price in 2011, who remains in office.
We don't have kids...no fool here...if I have ten or twenty bucks left when I die; the cats get it. :-)
Big deal he used a word that is as popular as the "F" bomb and "MF" in black community.
If he had just called him a half cracka, there would be no problem.
I believe I did use the N-word in reference to the current occupant of the White House, Copeland said. For this, I do not apologize he meets and exceeds my criteria for such.
Proving there's a right word for everything!
RE: My filter keeps blocking me from getting to the Digital Journal website.
Read this news instead. Details are the same:
RE: Why do you suppose it's okay for blacks to use the n word and call whites honkies?
Don't blacks often use it as a term of endearment?
Why can't folks from other race use it as a term of endearment?
Who sets the rules?
SEE HERE FOR INSTANCE (Jackie Chan, new to America, saw a black guy calling others the word as a term of endearment. He uses it after that and all hell breaks loose ):
RE: With Blacks, amongst themselves the word isnt a pejorative term, its a greeting.
What if you used it as a "greeting"? Why is that suddenly a bad thing? Who makes these rules anyway and why are we obliged to follow them?
Looks like a book I will be picking up!
When a group of people call themselves and each other the "N" word on regular daily basis they shouldn't get too upset when others refer to them with the same word. Maybe now blacks will think twice about referring to each other as "N" this and "N" that.
Whites don't call each other "cracka"
Jews don't call each other "Kikes"
Hispanics don't call each other "Beaners"
A close Nigerian friend, now an American, once told me, "call me black or negro, but not nigger." But his point wasn't racism in itself, it is that he didn't want to be identified with the underclass that has been generated, beginning in earnest with the Great Society. Like many Nigerians in the US, he has achieved considerable financial success and has an adoring wife and family.
BTW, to the NSA or other policing agencies, I was quoting the other guy who used the N-word. I don't use it, because it doesn't promote conversation, no matter who uses it.
Good. Finally someone with some backbone. Obama himself has been heard calling people 'that' word.
"What if you used it as a greeting? Why is that suddenly a bad thing? Who makes these rules anyway and why are we obliged to follow them?"
I think I'd have to be ready for a confrontation. I guess we are "obliged to follow them" unless we want to have a fist fight!
"Why do you suppose it's okay for blacks to use the n word and call whites honkies?"
As far as the n-word goes, I think blacks use it in a different context. It can be a term of endearment for them. I don't think "honkies" is used in the same manner. If it's meant to demean whites—I doubt they mean it as term of endearment—then it's no better than the n-word. Both are generally inappropriate, much like cursing only harsher. Their use often reflects more negatively on the speaker than the target in my opinion.
Looks like he's resigned.
WOLFEBORO, N.H. Town officials confirmed Monday that the 82-year-old police commissioner who was heard publicly calling President Obama the n-word sparking nationwide outrage has tendered his resignation.
Not clear if it was a work e-mail or personal email.
It's the latest *I dare you* script from the left.

I want to rotate around model's y-axis, but I do not know how to do it. There is a same topic but I do not completely understand and it is closed. There is a function name D3DXMatrixRotationAxis in DX, but the problem is how to set the vector value, to rotate around, after loading a model.

To rotate about the y-axis, you would use for D3DXVECTOR3( 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f ) for the vector. That's the unit vector representing the +ve y-axis.

Phil_t is correct. Here is the MSDN reference for that method. Just to add one small extra note: You'll want to make sure that your model is in "model space", which means you haven't applied any transformations to it. The center should be very near (0,0,0) and it should be oriented towards your preferred standard orientation (I use [1,0,0] as my facing direction). Apply your rotation to get your rotation matrix, then apply your rotation matrix to your model.

From what i gather, it's not the performing of the rotation that you have an issue with, but the actually finding of that axis of rotation. If you have a world transform already, you can extract the local X Y and Z vectors from it, and use those to rotate around. this will be different depending on your matrix layout, but you should be able to use the [] operator on the world matrix to get each axis individually(i think anyway, I have never used the d3d math library).
// psuedo code // matrix layout // x.x, x.y, x.z 0 // y.x, y.y, y.z, 0 // z.x, z.y, z.z, 0 // t.x, t.y, t.z, 1 Vec3 xAxis = model.worldTransform[0]; Matrix4 xRot = ARotation(xAxis, radians); model.worldTransform *= xRot; Vec3 yAxis = model.worldTransform[1]; Matrix4 yRot= ARotation(yAxis, radians); mode.worldTransform *= yRot;

The next in our series examining the stretch of games that will make or break each team's season.
Now at bat: The Sooners of Norman.
The stretch: vs. Florida State (Sept. 11), vs. Air Force (Sept. 18), at Cincinnati (Sept. 25) and Texas (Oct. 2)
The breakdown: Oklahoma's national championship campaign was derailed on the season's opening weekend in 2009. That won't happen this year when Utah State comes to Norman, but the Sooners' brutal nonconference schedule will have an opportunity to send them stumbling out of the top 10 before conference play arrives.
Oklahoma earned its second loss last year -- at Miami -- before conference play began.
In Week 2, Jimbo Fisher's offense will give Oklahoma a test. The Sooners are starting two new corners after sending Dominique Franks and Brian Jackson to the NFL, leaving sophomore Demontre Hurst and junior Jamell Fleming to step into key roles.
The Seminoles will be without Jarmon Fortson, who was kicked off the team this summer, but Christian Ponder still has Bert Reed to throw to, a 60-reception guy from a season ago. Defending Owen Field won't be easy. This game should be the toughest test in 2010 for the stadium's mystique.
The next week will be a test for the linebackers, who may here "Stay home!" a record number of times during the week in preparation for Air Force's option attack full of fake handoffs and misdirection. Oklahoma has a solid group in Travis Lewis, Ronnell Lewis and Tom Wort, but its depth suffered with the loss of Austin Box to a disc issue. True freshman Corey Nelson also might get a shot on the field. Defensive tackle Jamarkus McFarland could announce his presence proudly in that game by winning the battle up front, but he was behind Stacy McGee on the Sooners' latest depth chart. It's definitely an opportunity for a breakout game from either of them, especially if fellow tackle Adrian Taylor isn't back by then.
Oklahoma quarterback Landry Jones has heard the criticisms of his play on the road all summer. Away from Owen Field, he threw just four touchdowns to seven interceptions, and he'll be on spot in this game, the Sooners' first on the road. Cincinnati lost its coach, quarterback and best receiver, but Zach Collaros played plenty in relief of Tony Pike in 2009. The Bearcats aren't ranked to begin the season, but they received the most votes of any unranked team in both preseason polls, and Big East blogger Brian Bennett pegs them second in the conference to start the season.
Which brings us to the date circled on Oklahoma's calendar every year. The Texas State Fair has quite a few new things on the menu this year: fried lemonade, fried beer and the oxymoronic Fried Frozen Margarita. But this isn't new: Texas and Oklahoma are good. With two great defenses, this could be another classic, and a few key throws could write the first chapter in the legacy of Jones or Garrett Gilbert. Folks have said it all offseason and I'll say it again: This should be low scoring and come down to a few key plays. The past two seasons Texas has made those plays and have won four of five. Oklahoma will be looking to change that.
The prediction: 3-1, with a loss to Texas

Speaking with ClickZ this week, Madden said EA plans to focus its attention on providing brands with cross-platform solutions, spanning its range of social, mobile, online, and console properties and gaming franchises. "Today the concept in-game advertising is much more about a range of platforms," he said, referencing properties such as its casual gaming site Playfish and its range of mobile games.
The company is working on a system that will allow advertisers to dynamically place advertiser content across multiple devices and touch points, which it plans to sell to advertisers on a package basis. "My intent is to simplify the process for advertisers to place ads across multiple platforms, and then give them measurable results to benchmark across different media," Madden said.
It's not just about display ads, though, and Madden described his belief in the importance of a value exchange between consumers and brands within gaming environments. For example, consumers react best to brands that enhance their in-game experience, or aid their progress, he said.
One example of such integration was a recent Toyota Prius campaign conducted with Playfish's Monopoly Millionaires title, which lives on the Facebook platform. Users were given the opportunity to earn an "eco-house" which provided them with advantages in the game, and encouraged them to share the content with their friends.
"Consumers understand that they're getting something in return, and their attention is more focused. That value exchange will create implicit value for brands," Madden said. Monopoly Millionnaires currently reaches a monthly average of 6.3 million users, according to EA.
Beyond Facebook and the web, EA also plans to implement similar integrations across mobile and console games, and to create consistent ad experiences across those platforms. "To some extent advertising dollars follow eyeballs. Gaming is the number one activity on Facebook, on the iPad, on the iPhone. It's inevitable that brands will want to reach people during those experiences, and the time is right to focus on getting a great platform in place to make that easy," Madden said.
The console space is also becoming more sophisticated in terms of marketing content, Madden implied, with an increasing number of titles utilizing tools such as Facebook and Twitter from within the games themselves. EA brings in a range of major brand integrations for its console games, especially sports franchises such as its NFL and soccer-related titles.
In addition it will continue to offer dynamic in-game ads, which Madden said there is still "strong demand" for. Last year the company brought its in-game ad sales in-house, ending a relationship with Microsoft-owned network Massive.
According to Madden, EA now has "one of the largest, if not the largest" in-game media sales forces in the world. The majority of that staff is based in North America and London, he said, but continues to expand on a global basis. He declined to identify the number of employees on the sales team.

Grandparents Get to Go to Camp in Chicago
We at InterfaithFamily/Chicago are spending more and more time with parents of adult children who are intermarrying and grandparents whose grandchildren are being raised in interfaith homes. The question I hear from them is often about how they can share their own love of Judaism and the family heritage and traditions with their grandchildren. We talk about the relationship with their adult children, honoring the decisions they have made and being in respectful dialogue about that. We speak about how grandchildren learn through osmosis the Jewish values grandparents live and breathe and will enjoy learning family recipes, participating in holiday celebrations and hearing the stories of their family.
The goal isn't to make grandchildren Jewish unless that's a shared goal with their parents. The goal is to love, accept, learn from, honor and celebrate this child for who they are and to show pride in who you are and how you became who you are. Will this lead to Jewish continuity? That's in the stars. You've got your relationship with your children and grandchildren now. If there is bonding and togetherness and warm memories and sharing of values, not only will these young souls flourish but those who come into their circles will be enriched. If there is positivity and connectedness associated with Judaism, it's all good.
My question to you, Chicago area grandparents: What are you doing June 19-21? Are your grandchildren done with school and not yet in camp? Take the plunge and try a special weekend away with them at the JCC's Grandparents Weekend. The weekend is filled with programming that will engage children 4-12 years old in fun and meaningful activities. There is plenty of time for running around, enjoying the beautiful retreat center, playing games within the structure of the weekend, and also free time downtown when the magic of even more grandparent-grandchildren bonding happens.
Here are words from grandparents Barb and Denny Kessler who have participated in this JCC retreat for many years and have found it to be deeply worthwhile:
In a few months we will be returning to the L'Dor Va-Dor Grandparents & Grandkids program at Camp Chi for our 8th year!!! The opportunity to be with our grandkids for a weekend—without their parents—in a Jewish/camping setting has been our great pleasure. We take two of our seven grandkids each year for a truly fun and meaningful weekend together. The kids hear about it from their older sibs and cousins and can't wait to be old enough to go. We have found this to be a unique way to deepen our relationship with our grandkids. Several of our grandkids are from an interfaith home and spending a weekend at Camp Chi has been a wonderful way to have them be part of a Jewish community, celebrate Shabbat and Jewish traditions as a family and interact with other Jewish kids. We usually take two cousins, rather than siblings, because our grandkids are from different cities and they love being together. At the end of the weekend we make a photo album for each of the kids, write about the weekend and give it to them so they remember our special weekend together. They all treasure their albums and even many years later talk about our weekends together at grandparent's camp.
The Power of Reading
This year my parents hosted their 44th annual Passover seder. I'm not old enough to have been to them all, but the only year I didn't attend was when I was living in Israel. Thus, for me, this is how Passover seder is "done." It's the seder that I grew up with. I distinctly remember the first time I went to a different seder and realized that there are other ways of observing this Jewish tradition.
Many years ago my family started holding our seder on the Saturday night during Passover. Although not always the traditional first or even second night seder, it is ours. This year our seder took place on the sixth night. By bringing family together on the weekend, we are able to max-out the dining room that each year stretches into the living room, setting places for 29 people (not including Elijah). The Haggadah was the same as it always is with the additions over the years for Miriam's Cup, a contemporary Dayeinu, and some other assorted embellishments.
However this year was different from other years because my niece (the only of her generation) is nearly 21 months old and now able to interact with all of us. Upon her birth, I enrolled my niece in PJ Library — an amazing program that sends a free Jewish book to children every month. My sister-in-law brought the most recent edition, and a current favorite, Company's Coming: A Passover Lift-the-Flap Book.
What's special about this book? The flaps make reading fun. The message is straight-forward. It walks the young reader through the elements of preparing for Passover, setting the table, and the items on the seder plate. Since we were setting the table while my mom read to her, it was fitting to show the actual items as they appeared in the book. We made reading come alive even more than the lift-the-flaps.
My favorite part was how she embraced the kippah. She put it on my dad's head. She put it on her own head. She even put it on the dog's head! Bless her heart; the dog was so patient, never moving while this adorable little girl dressed up for the seder. (Need proof? Check out the adorably cute photos below!)
If you have (or know) a little one, consider signing up for PJ Library. You may not love every book as much as my family loves this one, but I'm sure you'll find a gem of your own. In the Bay Area, sign up online or visit their site to find the PJ Library nearest you.
Grandparenting in Interfaith Families
Are you a Jewish grandparent navigating your relationship with your child, their partner, and your grandchild? Are you the adult, sandwiched between your parent and your young child, respecting the one who raised you and hoping they will respect your choices in raising your own family? I am curious what works (and what doesn't work). Please comment below and join me as we start a dialogue about the role of grandparents!
I believe step one should be to have a conversation. The grandparent should sit down with their adult child and discuss how each sees the other's role. Share thoughts, feelings, hopes, and dreams. Respect each other. Recognize that this can be easier said than done!
But then what? Grandparents: what do you do (have you done) that has worked really well? What didn't work so well that you would do differently next time? Children, what have your parents done that worked (or didn't)? What do you wish they would do?
I have five ideas to get us started; I'm interested to hear if you think these will be well received.
What would you like to add to this list?

Attending Naugatuck has been a regular experience, I'd get much more excitement joining a University and my dream is to go to Quinnipiac University. If I could do it all over again, I would have tried to go directly to a university instead of a community college. There's more you experience and learn.

When I applied to NVCC I had no plans of attending school at all. I had no outlook on what I was planning to do with my life. When I chose Horticulture as my major, I honestly knew very little about it. Yet, after my first year, I have met the most amazing people, helpful teachers, and am learning something that I find no stress in at all. As a result, I am excited to transfer colleges because this school gave me such a better outlook on education.

Ipad is Overpriced, Get a Nook Color – The Peoples' Tablet 1 commentDec 29, 2010 9:52 AM
I'm a Kindle 3 user and I love it. Prior to this, I used to think that Barnes & Noble's Nook was a piece of crap compared to the Kindle 3. Well I still think that it is, but that opinion only applies to the Nook Classic (which is the e-ink version of the Nook). The Nook Color is a very different story here and I believe that B&N has a big hit on their hands.
I got a Nook Color for Christmas and I must say that I love it! I am a Kindle 3 user for reading so I wasn't really thinking about getting a tablet-type device as I use my portable devices mainly for reading on the internet and now books and newspapers on the Kindle 3. I love my Kindle 3 and will keep it as it does a few things that the Nook Color doesn't do like getting newspapers delivered directly and automatically to it via Calibre while using my existing login info for my online publications. In any event, the Nook Color does a lot of things that the Kindle 3 doesn't do, or do well. I can browse the internet via an excellent android-based brower, I can play videos, view pictures, play games, play music either my own or Pandora, read books, lend and borrow books from others, borrow books from the library, read for free at any Barnes and Noble store, etc.. While this device doesn't do as much as the Apple Ipad, it definitely does enough for me and probably most people that are considering buying a tablet in the near future. Face,it, most people use their tablets to read, browse the internet, watch videos, look at pictures, play some games, and listen to music. The Nook Color does all of this on a very sleek device with a 7-inch color touch screen for only $249 versus the Ipad which starts at $499 and the Galaxy Tab which costs as much as $600 without a wireless contract. I don't see why most people would pay a premium for the Ipad when they most likely don't really want to bother with the hundreds of thousands of bullship apps that are available for the Ipad that they may actually use once or twice. While it will be an uphill marketing battle and B&N could easily screw it up, I really do believe that the Nook Color could really take off and become the "peoples' tablet" especially at the $249 price point when the current competition is at least twice that price and the future tablet competition (Blackberry Playbook and the future tablet from Motorola) is likely to be priced as high as the Ipad. Go get one today!
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.

Returning from Prison and Doing a 180
"People coming out of jail, we want it so bad, but we don't have the tools."
Each time Carl had been released he had never been able to get on his feet. He heard about Project Return while he was incarcerated and decided to give it a try.
Participants at Project Return are making the return of their lives, coming back from incarceration to our community, often with little more than the shirts on their backs and a criminal record.
At Project Return, we meet the need with opportunity, changing one life at a time by propelling folks toward employment while making sure basic needs are met. Our clients have done their time, paid their debt, and want to work on the path of a successful return.
Project Return equips people with the education, coaching, and support services necessary to gain employment and begin a new life.
Read Project Return's 2015 Annual Report
Project Return serves over 1,500 people in middle Tennessee every year.
Participation in Project Return's Reentry Program reduces the likelihood of recidivism by up to 40%.

Rated 4.2 out of 5 by 600 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Hawaiiandreamee Peace and quiet Highly satisfied, the staff was very friendly, the hotel was neat, clean and tidy. You could walk to everything and it's location ensured peace and quiet. I highly recommend this as a vacation must. January 21, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by Remembering482 The Pink Palace Needs Help The Royal Hawaiian Hotel use to be my favorite hotel. I have gone for vacation most years of my life--probably 30+ times. After an expensive remodel she looked lovely, but many important features were removed. It is no longer at the top of my list. Dirty elevators (grunge around the baseboards and carpet), poor menu selections, empty restaurant, average food preparation, poor bar service, beach umbrellas that cost a fortune, no table cloths (or elegance) at the restaurant. I could go on. Breaks my heart. January 17, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Susan819 Paradise in the city Staying at the Royal Hawaiian was the most relaxing, luxurious and delicious experience I can remember. We are looking forward to when we can return. Our expectations were exceeded in every way and all of the staff were so kind, helpful, efficient and friendly. January 16, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by LC1234 So sorry to be negative but TRH was a huge disappointment I would strongly recommend that Starwood take a serious look at their rating of this hotel as included in their 'luxury' collection. Not up to the usual standards as Luxury. Yes the building is Historic and charming. But the rooms are flat out BAD. Front desk staff not up to par. Mai Tai beach bar (main gathering place) very SLOW service. As a Gold SPG member we were given a small DARK room overlooking the check in area. We called as asked if possible to have our room changed. And yes the front desk manager (Monica who was very nice) did her best and moved our room. It was her best attempt to upgrade us which we appreciates. But after seeing 2 rooms all I can assume is that most of the rooms are sorry. The room we ended up in was 265. The air vent above the closet door was filthy. The windows were so dirty it was difficult to see through them. And no wireless Internet service available from the room which presented a problem since unfortunately my husband had some business he needed to conduct. After hours of trying to get it working .....the evening manager Evan sent a 'hot spot device ' up to the room that took care of it. La la la. I try to be a positive traveler. But I can only say that I appreciate that SPG is interested enough to ask for our review and I hope that SPG management will take the time to read our reviews and act on Any of our negative pressions in order to maintain their excellent reputation. We used all SPG properties 2 years ago all over Southeast Asia. And EVERY hotel was absolutely perfect in every way. Service was outstanding. The royal Hawaiian hotel front desk could take a lesson from their fellow employee's in Southeast Asia. My final recommendation to my Hawaii bound friends........ Do not burn your SPG points on the Royal Hawaiian. Just drop on for a look around And personally I would recommend skipping Waikiki altogether and head over to Maui or Kauai. The SPG properties are much better there I prefer giving positive reviews but we feel so ripped off by our Royal Hawaiian downer. January 16, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Keiko This hotel is the most beautiful in Waikiki. If you stay in this hotel, you can enjoy a very pleasant and relaxing atmosphere all day: from morning to night. January 15, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Richard1958 PARADISE We keep coming back. If you go to the Royal Hawaiian you know what I mean when I say thaey treat you like family, Most of their staff has been there forever (or so it seems). They remember your name, your needs and even what you want to eat for breakfast. The hotel is one of the few hotels in Waikiki that is right on the Beach and is centrally located to all of the great restaurants and shopping. The rooms are awesome, the views are great and the property is beautiful January 14, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Sarah2012 Nice Hotel This hotel is clean and the staff are friendly. It is in the perfect location, next to everything. The pool area is too small and there are insufficient chairs and umbrella's to accommodate all its guests which should be considered before booking especially those who have children. January 8, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Marie77 Beautiful stay at a lovely hotel I would have given this hotel a 5 star rating, if it weren't for the bathrooms. We stayed in a 2 bedroom/2bathroom suite. The suite for lovely and huge. There was plenty of closet space and the staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome. For such a large room, I expected a comparable bathroom. The bathroom was very small in both rooms. There was very little room to room or for toiletry items. I usually did my makeup in the room. This is my only complaint. January 8, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by msfleishr Hotel was wonderful Always wanted to stay and finally did and it is in a perfect location. January 7, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by bg0001 Another great vacation This has been my sixth stay at the Royal Hawaiian. It remains one of my favorite hotels in the world. It has a perfect location in Waikiki and the charm of the facility is unmatched. January 7, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Madcookkath You are extremely well looked after The staff were exceptional. Everyone was extremely kind and polite. Nothing was too much trouble. The hotel itself was old and worldly, we would stay again without hesitation. Congratulations to all of you for looking after us so well and it made this trip wonderful and extremely enjoyable. Hats off to you all and we mean everyone! January 7, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by JRSTokyo Wonderful experience in an iconic hotel! We spent a few days at the hotel bookending a trip to Kauai. We could not have picked a better spot. The hotel is beautiful and sits on a prime spot on Waikiki. Situated next to the Sheraton Waikiki, the hotel's facilites, accessible to all guests, covered all of our needs from great pools for our young children to beachside cabanas for weary parents. Check-in time was great on the front end and yet took longer our second stay. Staff flexibliity to minimize guest check-in wait time should be enhanced. That said, we had a wonderful stay. January 4, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by GeorgeP Just right for Waikiki It is great to walk off of KaliKawa to find such a wonderful place to stay. January 3, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by MikeandTerry Gracious Hospitality While we enjoyed southern hospitality a few weeks ago in Savannah, our stay at The Royal Hawaiian on Waikiki exceeded all our expectations for wrap-around hospitality in an urban setting (if you can call Honolulu 'urban'). Every employee (called 'ambassadors', appropriately) we met went out of their way to accommodate and welcome us. Our stay was incredibly memorable and we cannot praise this resort enough for gracious attentiveness and hospitality. January 3, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by MamaBofNJ A Definite 5 Star!! After one night of disappointment due to an error in our room reservation, Monica, the daytime hotel Manager, took charged and immediately set us up in an even better accomodation. Everything after that was just exactly how we planned our vacation at the Royal Hawaiian. The Staff are friendly, the food is fabulous and the hotel is lovely. Miss it already!!!! December 31, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by KimOd Service is impeccable Staff at RH are friendly, knowledgable and make our stay as comfortable as our second home. December 31, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by YB723 Nice but too expensive compared with hotel conditions Nice hotel, but felt a little discomfort with the room conditions and SPG recognition of the hotel. Very old hotel, even new built tower rooms were also very old and seemed like they need to be renovated. Price is extremely high but couldn't figure out the reason why. Expected to have some SPG benefits but none at all. December 28, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Smul Best Holiday This was my first stay at RH after having previously stayed at another hotel a couple of streets back from the beach. The RH is so well located that most places are an easy walk We even walked to Ala Moana from there which only took 30 mins at most. Management always available to offer solutions to problems as when we had an issue with noisy guests in an adjacent room. Cocktail function held for guests one evening where staff mingled with guests and drinks and food plentiful. Certainly made us feel welcome! December 28, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Suds Very Relaxing We had a very relaxing experience . We stayed in the Junior Garden Suite. It was so spacious. We also booked the pink umbrellas which made our beach experience nice. I will come back the next time I come to Waikiki. December 27, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by poubah1 disappointment For some reason it is like pulling teeth to get an upgrade from this hotel and has been for the last 15 years. Best feature was private beach area but that now costs you $40/day to use their lounges-come to San Diego, our beaches are free. December 27, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by jmcq 5 star This is one luxury hotel we will be coming back to. December 26, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by denisemc99 perfect location I loved the resort and everything it had to offer. Really enjoyed breakfast at Surf Lanai and cocktails at the Mai Tai Bar. December 26, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by jzabu Experience at hotel was mixed The hotel rooms & facilities were excellent, but certain aspects were way below expectations for a luxury hotel. 1) wi-fi signal in room was very week and could not sustain a connection with my PC or other devices. while issue was frustrating, actual IT phone support was polite and good even though the connectivity issue needed to be solved by using a LAN cable. 2) the service & attitude of some of the staff at the Surf Lanai during breakfast was terrible. hotel signs seem to lead you to the restaurant from the pool-side area, but when i got there none of the staff offered to seat me. so after a little confusion, i just seated myself like you do when eating/drinking at hotel's beachside Mai Tai bar. then i sat there for 15 minutes trying to get a server's attention for a menu. finally, i flagged down a fat bald guy who i assume was the manager. instead of just getting me a menu, he immediately went out of his way to tell me in a condescending way that not having a menu was basically my fault because i should have entered on the other side of the building (which is only marked as the entrance to Azure restaurant and NOT where hotel signs lead you) and been seated by the hostess... the actual waitstaff that ended up serving me was polite, but I don't spend $650 a night on a hotel to get attitude from the breakfast manager and start my day off being irritated. i looked up the restaurant on Yelp afterward and believe that there is definitely a reason why Surf Lanai has so many negative reviews focused on its service. luxury hotels are expected to do all the little details right, so negative experiences like mine really stand out. i'll never stay at the Royal Hawaiian again if i can avoid it. December 26, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Wizz Hotel is in great Location Hotel is excellent all round standard, in excellent location for all attractions. December 24, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Yamachai Good atmosphere This hotel has good access to beach and shopping area. At the same time, this keeps good silence. December 23, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Rosalin Love the pink The hotel is elegant and is surrounded by a tropical paradise of beach and lavish gardens. Our favourite tradition is going to the Mai Tai bar and watching local entertainment as we relax from a day of surfing or snorkelling. December 23, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Maryex Love This Hotel When In Honolulu would definitely stay here again! December 21, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Adamant classic hotel my third stay at what is an experience in comfort, old world charm and pure hospitality. Excellence in staff, dining, laying by a pool, shopping or just snuggling up in crisp white sheets in a comfortable room that is well appointed. I prefer the old rooms for their history and charm. An experience, not a hotel. December 20, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by HJWC Beach Rentals I was disappointment to find that the lounges and umbrellas on the beach were being rented for $40. per day. I do not expect to pay extra for these basic services as a Hotel of this rating, they should be included in the resort charge which we believe does not provide a very good value presently. December 19, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by 4400MG Wonderful location Once upon a time this hotel might have been something special. But it is overshadowed by the two adjolning hotels and the shopping mall. The pool is tiny and noisy, echoing with noise because of the small space and particularly with the Outrigger's entertainment. The breakfast servers are wonderfully attendant but the breakfast was nothing special. Even the coffee was weak. There is no place for people to go have a drink at 6 PM unless they want to sit at one of very few bar stools. There are plenty of empty tables at 6 PM but the hostess would not seat us for drinks and snacks. Our remodeled suite, 111, was lovely but the bathroom vanity was much too small, as was the tub/shower and the toilet paper roll could not be accessed by any human more than 4 feet tall. Great mirror backlighting, though. Room for guests to shower and change after checkout time is a great idea but the shower room needs to have an exhaust fan. Way too many people shopping in Waikiki area. Way too many. Las Vegas on the beach is not really for us but it was nice to have had the Royal Hawaiian experience as a based for shopping. Maybe it is the hotel to stay in on Waikiki. But Waikiki and Honolulu are not for a relaxing vacation experience. It's work to be part of the shopping crowd on Waikiki. December 18, 2012

Uber hipster. Hip(s) like a professional race walker. These people are hipster pur sang. As if they were born with a beard and gsus sandals. And they are friendly. My first impression was a very good one, even though we only drank their wine. Next time around we'll get some more. Nice shops! Never thought they would sell food and beverages i/o of bags and jaguar shoes! Meowww!more
Ok, so I know this place is a cool, hip bar but listen, it's also a GREAT place to study during the days. If you're also a student with lots of free time on your hands: come here study during the weekdays. Before 5pm, it is completely empty and is just a great place to concentrate, with loads of light and space. It's a delight to come here when it's sunny and warm, because they open the...more
Turns out finding a bar open in London late on a Monday night is more difficult than you'd perhaps think. Not one for busy city bars we jumped in a can to Old street / shoreditch area area and headed in to Dream Bags and Jaguar Shoes.
Pretty cool, laid back little bar. Good drinks, nice atmosphere.
Perfect and was open til 1am.
Except it wasnt, they decided to shut at midnight instead....more
I can dig it!
Tip: come during the quieter evenings of the week. You will be frustrated and cramped (as you would *anywhere* on a weekend night in Shoreditch) otherwise. Trendy/hip vibe, reasonably priced drinks, a good soundtrack, no real complaints. Would happily return...just not on a Friday/Saturday night!more
I love a birthday! Any excuse for a drink me. We went with a friend who picked this place - and frankly I love it for the name alone!
The location is good, well situated on a busy shoreditch road. it doesn't look like a bar from the outside, which I also like. Inside is very shabby chic, kind of a rundown but cool look. Plaster on the wall peeling in some places to reveal cement, we had a...more

Here I want to list some of the TOURS FROM VARADERO that you can take while vacationing here. I know I would have liked this information before we went there and what the cost of some of the tours were. So here is an up-to-date list with prices.
"Havana History Day Tour" - Monday to Sunday - 10 hours duration - 67 CUC Pesos
Visit Colonial & Modern Havana, Historic Centre, Cathedral Square, craft market, museum, Christopher Columbus cemetery, Revolution Square. Lunch included.
"Tropicana Varadero" - Wednesday to Sunday - 5 hours duration - 49 CUC Pesos

"Seafari Cayo Blanco" - Monday to Sunday - 7 hours duration - 75 CUC Pesos
Excursion by Catamaran, snorkeling in a coral barrier, entertainment, music, lunch and open bar with Cuban cocktails in Cayo Blanco.Related to:
- Family Travel
Hop over to Havana
Most, if not all, hotels in Varadero have a representative of the Cuban tourist board on duty. I would advise you to seek the advice of this rep in your hotel rather than the travel company rep. These people are paid by the government and are out to get you the best deal on your daytrip.
We were prepared to pay 68 pesos each for a group tour from Varadero to Havana. However, when we explaind to the rep about Mum's disabilities and about what we wanted to see, she suggested that we should hire a taxi. She agreed to get a suitable English speaking driver for us. She informed us that the cost for car and driver was 180 pesos. As this included a visit to the cigar factory shop it turned out to be terrific value as the group tour, to include the cigar factory, was 88 pesos per person.
When we got to Havana our driver let us off on our own for a while to wander. When we met up with him again he brought us to a typical Havana restaurant for lunch and then suggested various things we might like to do. He waited patiently for us at each stop and watched over us protectively.
I'll give more details on my Havana page, but suffice for now to say it was exceedingly good value for money.Related to:

How could you go all the way to Cuba and not spend at least a day to check out Havana? Havana is fantastic! I put it at the top of my "must-sees" while in Varadero.
Havana is the capital of Cuba, a UNESCO World Heritage Site for all of its glorious old Spanish Colonial Architecture. There are so many historical and cultural sights to see in Havana, including the Malecon (sea wall), the Artisans Market, all the old haunts of Ernest Hemingway, Old Havana and the San Cristobal Cathedral, the Plaza de la Revolucion, the old cemetery, the Capitol building, all the 50s cars, the Havana Carnival, and some of the greatest musicians I've ever heard! Sit on a patio, have a local mojito or daiquiri with a local cigar, a toasted "Cubano" sandwich, watch the people pass by, and know you're getting the real deal. It is the most beautiful city I have ever seen.
Arrange through your hotel to take a tour or a taxi from Varadero. Most of the reasonably priced tours include a stop at a cigar factory and a stop at Copacabana (for music, food, and dancing). We did an alternative where for $200 we had a taxi for the entire day. He drove us from Varadero to Havana, he showed us the sights, and drove us wherever we wanted to go. A very polite and friendly driver. It was, I repeat, fantastic!Related to:

If you aren't that kind of person who gets sea sick really easily, take this tour. The bottom of this boat is made out of glass and it takes you to the most amazing coral reefs where you can see beautiful fish without having do get your snorkeling outfit. I think it was about 25$US, which is not that expensive for what you get to experience.Related to:

Drink Coconut Milk
First of all, did you realise that coconut milk is actually water? I didn't know until I came across these two elderly gardeners on the beach in Varadero.
They were working as a team. I was sitting alone on a rock watching the rough waves when I was approached by the swarthy guy. I was bemused when he asked me if I had ever had coconut juice, and then he sent the older guy off into the fields to find coconuts.
The swarthy guy then took out a huge machete - I looked around warily to make sure there were people around!!! He hacked the coconut and then hollowed out the top to reveal the sweet water-like juice.
I must say I enjoyed it - but beware that machete:-)Related to:

Ecological Reserves
Varadero is a particularly fabulous area of interest for Ecologists and photographers. At the edge of the beach by Paradisus Varadero there is an Ecological reserve. I spent several very happy days walking through this ocean side area of coral reef photographing fossils and other items of interest. We were particularly lucky in thay we arrived just after a huge storm and so there was a lot of interesting debris washed up by the sea. Rock pools were a haven for ocean life. You need to take care though and watch out for things like freak waves and blow holes in the reefs.
Guided tours are arranged by some of the hotels in the area and these are generally free of charge.Related to:

Shell Seekers
In one sense we were lucky to experience very inclement weather in Varadero as it forced us to get out of the hotel and look for something to do.
Thus, every morning we found ourselves walking the beach - looking to see what the very rough seas had thrown up overnight.
One of the main joys of this kind of beach combing was our shell seeking expeditions. Over the period of three days of storm we amassed a very impressive collection of the most unusual shells. That saying, they were unusual for Irish people as we do not have many of the more exotic ones at home.
We fully intended to bring home the nicer shells and use them for display and craft work. However, when we went to retrieve our stash on the day of departure they were stinking most foully. We had no option but to leave the majority of them behind.
Next time I would wash them and dry them outdoors before attempting to bring them home.Related to:

We went on a jungle tour which involved getting there on jetski's. I'd never being on one before and I must admit I was a bit wary of them. It took about 10 minutes to get to grips with the speed and with the small swell on the open sea. After this I could start enjoying it and for a finish I didn't want it to end. You get to stop off at this type of island and see things such as snakes,crocodiles which you could hold(baby one about 3ft in lenght), giant rats, iguana's and tortoises. You also can a much needed cold drink. It's back on the jetski's and hack to base. All in all it was a couple of hours long and wasn't over priced. Two people can sit on each one. Anyway worth a visit.
We also did a tour of Matanzas city of which Varadero is a part of the province. Included in this was a trip to the Matanzas caves. It was an interesting tour with loads of facts on the history of the city and the dicovery of the cave. The caves weren't anything special as such as once you've seen a couple of caves you've seen them all. The city was interesting to the degree that you got to see poverty and the local markets. We got a guided tour on a coach and weren't allowed off, I suppose for time reasons but it was disappointing not to be able to stroll about the streets.Related to:

Get yourself a handmade straw hat
We noticed people wearing gorgeous hats made from woven palm leaves. A little straw palmleaf mozzie sat atop each hat. I wondered at their source and longed to acquire one. A search of the shops proved fruitless.
Then we changed hotels and, first sunny day out, we discovered that the hotel gardeners were weaving these hats for the guests, little baskets too. They give them to you as a gift, though a small tip was always appreciated:-)Related to:

Santa Elvira church
It date back from 1938, with an irregular structure in which stones and wood are predominant. The church, whose local tile roof rests on thick beams, has double doors and windows. The upper front side features a suspended half arch that serves as the bell tower and ends in a cross.Add to your Trip Planner
Scooters are a fun and cheap way to get around, and u can find them everywher on street corners to be rented out. The locals don't recocmend it, cuz supposudly its dangerous. We were two on the scooter, with only 1 helmet. We were placed on and sent off, without either one of us ever being on a scooter before. We ended up crashing at one point, and I scratched my ankle. On the way back, we saw 2 tourists that fell off with bloodied up legs.... so be careful! Depending where u go, it's usually 5 cuban pesos an hour, or cheaper the longer you rent it.Related to:

Car Heaven
Having dated a biker for ten years, I am still left with a passion for things motorised with a particular penchant for classic cars.
You can imagine my delight, therefore, to discover that Cuba is the classic car capital of the world. This is, of course, a political thing in that it's hard for them to get new cars, but afficionados will have a ball here.
Some of the vehicles are better maintained than others but all are delightful. They range from the big old American cadillacs to yellow boneshaker school buses to open backed big grey trucks which are used to ferry people from place to place.
Take a look at some of the pics attached, but for these vehicles I plan to create a whole page.Related to:

Varadero Sunsets
I was surprised that the sunset in Varadero is so colourful. So far I've been used to those glorious orange Caribbean sunsets, so perhaps it was due to the inclement and cloudy weather that we were treated to such a variety of colours as the sun went down.
It's very romantic and as I was with Mum several loving couples stopped me on the beach and asked me to take their pics.
Next time I go back with a man;-)Related to:

Twin Telepathy: Is there a 'Special Connection'?
December 27, 2013 By

If you have been hearing questions like these being asked regularly but have never found an answer, look no further. The short answer is – yes, and no. Let me explain. As Orwell famously observed in Animal Farm, "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others." So it is with twins – some them are indeed more identical than others.

Good God why can't these backward African countries grow up?It always amazes me that Africans, the first to demand "apologies" for slavery are also at the front of the queue when dishing out prejudice of their own!
Roberto, long time no see. These neanderthals are all the biproduct of learned behaviour, centuries of brainwashing by various religious denominations. Don't forget, it was we British too who left that awful legacy of criminalising sexual orientation in many parts of our former colonies and commonwealth countries, though you would think they'd have joined the 21st century by now. There's only one among all of them on that continent that has, South Africa, in fact gone a lot further than we have. Theirs is the only written constitution that protects sexual orientation, a first among nations of the civilised world and of course, LGBT people have full equality.
Hi "ex-pat", been to Gran Canaria then a family visit in the UK so not been about much since mid January.On the African question and homophobic legacy left behind since colonial times. that's always an excuse they like to trot out.It always seems funny how they can quickly change their laws relating to how long they stay in office, as with Mugabe et al, but seem to be paralysed when dealing with "rights"?I think that Africans are naturally prejudiced with or without colonialisation – just look at Kenya!
Roberto, wellcome back…you're probably right about the Africans, nothing has changed, probably never will. Thank goodness we have South Africa, a shining example of democracy and equality.
If one looks at statistics that punish for homosexuality (not capital Punishment that is the domain of The Arab Nations) one would see that Africa has the worst history of abuse against Homosexuality.It is little wonder that such things and injustices occur, but occur they do and largely go unreported.People forget that last than a century ago, it was them themselves that were persecuted for the colour of their skins.It is disgusting and again an issue that should be dealt with by the UN and the rest of the civilised world.
