It was logical," the actor said dryly. He then closed with [Spock]'s classic line: "Live long and prosper. "We're being followed by a GMC ... the gentleman jumped out of the car," she said a few seconds later. "Oh my God, sir, they're following us. We need help." "It's about time. [Elvis Presley] gave so much to Hawaii," said impersonator Jonathon Vonbrana, who had carefully sculpted black hair and wore dark sunglasses. "It's excellent. A lot of the statues don't even look like him."
In terms of early booking patterns an old destination is re-emerging as the hot new destination for those who couldn't fathom paying almost 50 per cent extra because of the former strength of the U.S. dollar in relation to ours. That destination is, of course, Hawaii. It was a favourite for Canadians for a long time with Maui in particular building to what I labeled the 11th province at the time. As our dollar lost its buying power and with huge influxes of Asian visitors raising prices throughout the islands, they became the destination for mostly wealthy Canadians only. Now that our dollar is almost at par, something many of us have never seen, we are once again booking vacations there. And not in small numbers either. I predict Hawaii will experience the greatest year over year i...
Two states of mind coexist in this resort area on Mexico's warm Pacific Coast, and they couldn't be more different. North Americans are flocking to buy multimillion-dollar beach lots in Nayarit as well as hillside condos in the so-called romantic zone in the extreme south of the port. But diesel buses and music blaring from overtaxed radios at taco stands were the first sounds I heard after venturing a half-block from my downtown hotel. With two convenience stores and a supermarket within two blocks, cold drinks and cheap food were five minutes away. Puerto Vallarta is actually one of the closest tropical areas to Canada. It's not an island, nor halfway around the world, and you don't have to fly over an ocean to reach this magical destination. And it's half the time and half the cost o...

I don't remember exactly why I finally went down to the studio that day, other than I think I felt it had become some sense of obligation because [Peter Feldstein] was so persistent," [Tim Hennes] says. "I don't think people could help but wonder what he was doing... or what was to be gained from it. "On the way home one day, I stopped at Slim's, and that's where I met Robin. Today we have two girls, ages 16 and 13. I've been on the Oxford City Council for eight years, and now I'm on my second term on the school board. That trip to Hawaii was my ticket out," he says. "Because of this second time around, I've really come to realize that I love the people of this town," he says. "I'm seeing a goodness and a kindness in a lot of people that I didn't expect it from."
Joseph Gordon-Levitt is a young man with high-flown romantic notions who pursues a beautiful young woman (Zooey Deschanel) who maintains a healthy cynicism about his notions of romantic destiny. It's a story you've heard a million times before, but it's told in such an inventive, relatable way, it almost feels like the first time. '''' (Reviewed by Christy Lemire) A couple on vacation in Hawaii learn that a homicidal twosome is also at large on the islands, but it's difficult to figure out who's evil and who's innocent without a map. A clever little thriller from writer-director David Twohy (Pitch Black). '''1/2 A quirky and inconsequential romantic comedy with Alexis Bledel as a college graduate who can't get a job and has to move home with her offbeat family. The film's central love s...
Mr. [Barack Obama] will be in Ottawa on Feb. 19, his first excursion outside the U.S. since he was elected president. Ottawa has had a rough winter itself, far worse than Hawaii, Indonesia or Chicago. With luck, by the time the new president arrives on what is being billed as a strictly working visit, winter's back will have been broken in the nation's capital, the miniature skating rink on the Rideau Canal under its usual pool of water. That won't matter much to Mr. Obama and Prime Minister Stephen Harper as they sit down to talk about the serious problems that our two countries face, but hopefully, Mr. Obama will demonstrate a better understanding of the nature of those cooling relations than he does of winter weather in Washington and elsewhere.
Creating the medicine bags became a huge undertaking because I thought that it would be fitting that each of the bags should be decorated with porcupine quillwork done in the Thunderchild's traditional colours, green and yellow," said [Norman Moyah]. "I get all my quills from road-kills and then clean and wash them, ready to dye in large batches. This project took a lot of time and a lot of quills, with 12 days to make 15 bags similar to pipe bags, but I wanted Thunderchild to look really good in the gift giving ceremonies. They were surprised because they had originally wanted simple little pull bags and were not expecting quillwork. "Our visitor from Hawaii received a Medicine Bag and I wondered how he faired taking it through the Canadian/USA customs, the leather, the quillwork and...
While his show No Reservations takes a laid-back approach to food, this online article isn't going to make the French-trained chef and part-time writer any friends. In one passage, he suggests a recent Paula Deen episode from Hawaii was "indistinguishable from an early John Waters film. And the food was on a par with the last scene of Pink Flamingos." In another he calls Sandra Lee "pure evil" and then contends that "this frightening Hell Spawn of Kathie Lee and Betty Crocker seems on a mission to kill her fans, one meal at a time.
A more leisurely time can be had at Poipu Beach, considered one of the best in the U.S., on Kauai's south shore. If you're lucky, you might spot a herd of adorable Hawaiian monk seals lazing in the sun, and in the winter, humpback whales can be seen spouting in the distance. Another offbeat option is to go on a hunt for waiawi ula'ula -- Hawaiian for the ruby-skinned, tangy-sweet handful of goodness that is the strawberry guava. If you're craving some of the creature comforts from back home, chances are you'll find it and more in Hawaii's only major city. Honolulu's Ala Moana Center boasts the world's largest open-air shopping mall, and there are countless boutiques for every taste stretch along the streets above Waikiki Beach. Of course, no trip to Hawaii would be complete without goin...
