| "Listen, there are people that are coming down the pilot ladder of the prow. You go up that pilot ladder, get on that ship and tell me how many people are still on board. And what they need. Is that clear? You need to tell me if there are children, women or people in need of assistance. And tell me the exact number of each of these categories. Is that clear? Listen Schettino, that you saved yourself from the sea, but I am going to... I'm going to make sure you get in trouble. ...I am going to make you pay for this. Go on board." |

Obama announces 17-day Christmas trip to Hawaii
|
|
United States President Barack Obama will jet off to Hawaii for a 17-day Christmas vacation with wife Michelle and daughters Malia, 13, and Sasha, 10.
Obama, who visited the island just two weeks ago for an economic summit, will head to Honolulu on December 17 until January 2.
The President's family covers the cost of a private beach front residence in Kailua, Oahu, for their vacation - a 'Winter White House' that costs up to 3,500 dollars a day.
But the local and federal taxpayers help pay the bill for travel and security, the Daily Mail reports.
Last year, a similar trip had cost over a million dollars. (ANI)

Every minute of every day our news editors canvass the issues, and stories making the news to provide our readers with a broad and in-depth coverage of what's happening in the world.
Our first priority is the state. We specialise in Hawaiian news. From Oahu to big island itself, we're on the lookout day and night to keep track of issues making the news. We also strive to keep abreast of national news.
Breaking stories out of the continental United States usually break first on the Hawaii Telegraph. Neighbouring states and key cities too often feature on our news pages.
We also provide a whole lot of other content you'd expect from any newspaper including international sports coverage and local Hawaii weather forecasts.
We also provide readers with an opportunity to engage in newsmaking by voting on major stories in the news, and following how other readers are viewing the issues. Our news polls are regularly updated, and attract thousands of voters over each week they're conducted.
Our business writers too work hard to keep you abreast of what's happening in the markets, not only in the U.S. but across the globe. We work around the clock to post stories from major financial centers like Tokyo, Paris, London, and of course New York, where we have extensive coverage of the major indices, particularly the Dow Jones, Nasdaq, S&P and Russell 2000. |
