The striker was in lethal form in front of goal to bag his treble as we finished the Barclays Asia Trophy in style with a 6-0 win against South China FC on Saturday night.
It might have been more - JD hit the post in the first half, was denied twice by fine saves from Zhang Chunhui and then missed a header in the latter stages!
"I wanted that fourth goal!" said Jermain, who will kick-off next term joint-seventh in our all-time goalscoring list.
"In my experience over the years when you score goals they just keep coming.
"When you've have a good pre-season and you are scoring goals, that takes you into the season.
"It's important to have the confidence as a striker that when you get a chance, you believe you are going to score.
"When you've got that belief, good things happen.
"Hopefully when the season starts I'll continue scoring. That would be great."
Jermain is currently on 133 goals for us, level with Alan Gilzean. Six more and he'll leapfrog Gilzean, Len Duqemin (134) and George Hunt (138) for a place our all-time top five.
The top four are Cliff Jones (159), Martin Chivers (174), Bobby Smith (208) and Jimmy Greaves (266).

Selfishness, drops, playoff disappearing acts make T.O. overrated
The "O" in T.O. doesn't stand for just Owens. It also stands for "overrated," writes Sal Paolantonio.
Some recent "best of" lists have been putting Terrell Owens in the same sentence as Jerry Rice. What are these people thinking?
Rice, a member of the NFL 75th Anniversary Team, has won three Super Bowl titles and been named a Super Bowl MVP.
The one time in Owens' 12-year career his team reached a Super Bowl, it got there without him. That tells you everything you need to know about T.O.
Since entering the NFL in 1996 with San ...

My parents and I stayed at the Ledge House in November. It is run by a young couple. They were wonderful hosts and made us feel welcome and comfortable in their beautiful house. The rooms were spacious and the beds comfortable. The views are fantastic! The kitchen was well stocked with food, wine, and coffee/tea and we were served a delicious breakfast. I would absolutely stay here again! We briefly checked out the Hilltop House on our way out and felt we had made definitely made the better choice.

UniForum '97, April 12-14, 1997
My trip to San Francisco to attend UniForum'97 was very satisfying as I got to see two great luminaries of our time—the Hale-Bopp comet and Linus Torvalds. Hale-Bopp was visible in the pre-dawn sky on March 12 and 13. Linus was visible at the Keynote speech on March 13 and was definitely the brighter of the two.
The president of UniForum, Tom Mace, was present to welcome Linus, and Douglas Michaels of SCO presented Linus with UniForum's Achievement Award. The award itself is a clear, pyramid-shaped trophy, about which Linus said he was pleased to have something "physical" to show for his work. Linus' acceptance speech was brief and self-effacing as usual. He referred to himself as the "spider at the center of the web" with many others working around him. Tove and their 3 month old baby girl, Patricia Miranda, had accompanied Linus and both tolerated my pushiness in taking pictures. After the keynote, Linus and Tove made the rounds of the Exhibit Hall, visiting all their fans in the Linux Pavilion. Tove confided that they were enjoying the weather (no snow), but that the arrival of their furniture had been delayed by a bad storm that had forced the ship back to Germany.
Mitchell Kertzman of Sybase gave a vibrant keynote speech that morning, in which he ignored Linux as a possible factor in a paradigm shift that might topple Microsoft. Perhaps he hasn't heard that Linus' goal is "world domination". Kertzman compared today's software industry to the automobile industry of the fifties—that it is designing products to be obsolete in three years, while consumers are wanting long term reliability. Sounds to me like consumers are looking for Linux.
While 7000 people had pre-registered for UniForum, only about 75% of those actually attended. Perhaps the others went to one of the competing shows such as Internet World. At any rate, at times the floor was crowded with attendees, while at other times (particularly toward the end of the day) it was quite empty. The Linux Pavilion was placed in the right rear corner of the floor, yet it seemed to me that most attendees were gravitating over to check out this upstart operating system that dares to be freely available. SSC gave away their stock of magazines and bumper stickers, as well as displaying T-shirts, reference cards and the new "Tux" mugs. IBM and Lucent Technologies both had central positions on the floor, but I saw many people passing them by to visit Digital to check out both the Alpha and Jon "maddog" Hall's new Linux setup for Digital's Intel box. Jon is providing us with a short article about this setup that will appear next month.
I attended two of the talks: one on Electronic Document Interchange and one on high speed Internet access. Both were well presented and full of good information. I was particularly impressed with Jeff Wilbur's thoughts on the directions that access to the Internet will take in the future (i.e., cable modems, xDSL, satellite, ISDN), and so asked him for an article.
Since UniForum '97 was my first conference as Editor of Linux Journal, I met many people I had only heard about before, including Joel Goldberg of InfoMagic (who is a sponsor of Linux Gazette), Mark Bolzern of WGS, Adam Richter of Yggdrasil, and of course, Jon "maddog" Hall of Digital. Jon introduced me to Ted Cook of BRU, who told me of his plan to give away BRU software to Linux User Groups at the upcoming Linux Expo and to groups that are members of G.L.U.E. (http://www.ssc.com/glue/).
On Wednesday night Joanne Wagner, one of our advertising representatives, and I attended a press conference/party put on by XiGraphics—free food and drink, always a plus. The press conference was held to announce the recent name change (from X Inside) and the latest release of Xi's Accelerated X software. The president and founder of the company, Thomas Roell, gave a short presentation in which he described the directions he envisions for Xi Graphics.
All in all, I had a good time at the conference and a pleasant stay in San Francisco.

1 in a 1000
By Brie Keysmash on May 21, 2014
Last week, Shutterfly.com mistakenly sent out a mass email to their subscribers wishing them, "congratulations on your new arrival", with pictures of families and newborn babies. I was one of the people who received this email, and as someone who doesn't have kids, I was wondering why I got it before they issued their retraction and apology. Awks. Their Facebook page was filled with comments from upset women who suffer from infertility and were offended by the email. So, why am I bringing this up? Because like those women who commented on their Facebook page, I too suffer from infertility.
Time to get TMI. I was diagnosed with premature ovarian failure (also known as premature ovarian insufficiency, or premature menopause) almost a year and a half ago. Approximately 1 in 1000 women between the ages of 15-29 are diagnosed with POF . I was suffering from what my doctors thought were some auto-immune related illnesses (and to be fair, I'm not in the clear from those yet either), and I hadn't had a period in a really long time. My doctor thought I may be suffering from Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, so sent me for a bunch of blood work. What my tests showed was a extremely high FSH level, which is the hormone that tells your body to deliver an egg.
Long story short, it means I am no longer releasing eggs each month because there is a dysfunction with the ovarian follicle. And it's irreversible. There is no cure, and no genetic or medical reason (for me at least) for why it started. What does all of this mean? It means I get the joys of experiencing the symptoms of menopause 20 years before I should. Oh yeah, the hot flashes (HOLY GOD MY MOTHER WAS NOT LYING WHEN SHE SAID THEY ARE AWFUL), the lack of estrogen. fatigue, and all that great stuff.
I supplement my hormones with estrogen and progesterone which I take daily and they help minimize symptoms. However, it also means the chances of me having a biological child are between 1-5%.
The silver lining: I no longer get a period so I can wear white without fear. I feel like a Tampax tampon commercial. Someone cue the field of daisies and a wind machine.
For some reason, okay I probably know the reason, women are scared to talk about an ability to have children naturally. I mean, who can blame me, them, you? Who wants to say, "oh yeah, I haven't had kids yet because I can't" or "we've been trying for ages and nothing is happening". For a woman to be told she can't have a child on her own, it's heartbreaking, embarrassing, and most of all confusing. You ask, "why me?"
My doctor suggested I see someone to talk about it. But that didn't sound appealing to me. What was I going to say, "I never thought I wanted kids until someone took away my option for me?" Nah, I wasn't feeling it. And honestly, I searched for information online, and there was a lot, but it was all very clinical, and didn't really help me understand what I was feeling because people just didn't want to seem to talk about it on a deep and personal level. I am in therapy now for a variety of reasons, this being one of them, but it took me a long while to get there.
In fandom, and in my timeline on twitter, I am surrounded by moms. I see moms talk about their kids all the time. I see us all watch shows where mom's play a big role, like on Teen Wolf. I see my friends on Facebook having babies, and building families and I'm not going to lie, it sucks to be surrounded by moms and kids sometimes. It's like a constant reminder of what you can't do.
Though as time went on, I realized getting a diagnosis like this means you end up going through the stages of grief whether you want to or not from denial, to anger, to bargaining, and finally acceptance (I know, I skipped a few). Sometimes I get so angry about my health I want to scream and punch a wall. Other times I am just sad because though there are so many ways to have a family if I want one, I know I will likely never have my own biological child. But most days, I'm okay. Most days, I don't even think about it, and I go about my life as though I'm whole, because though I have broken parts, I am not broken.

Also, I hear SSA considers blindness as 20/200 or better... my vision in one eye is 20/400. Do you think I would qualify to file for blindness or low vision as well under SSDI? Your thoughts.View Thread

Freddie Mercury Mocks Kanye West's 'Bohemian Rhapsody' In New Video
A new video intersperses Kanye West's performance of the Queen classic with Freddie Mercury laughing.
A new video intersperses Kanye West's performance of the Queen classic with Freddie Mercury laughing.
Freddie Mercury's debut was the perfect solo album, in that it became a outlet for his inclination toward non-rock music away from Queen and never threatened his group's integrity.
Freddie Mercury was the face of Queen's wildly popular mixture of hard rock, pop, cabaret, glam and opera in the '70s, before becoming one the the AIDS virus' most well-known casualties in the '90s.
Zanzibar has built a cottage industry out of the late Freddie Mercury, in direct contrast to its stance against homosexuality.
Queen took the stage in Southern California on June 16, delivering a warmup show to 400 fortunate fans that included the first-ever live performance of the Freddie Mercury solo track 'Love Kills.'
Sebastian Bach sang 'We Are the Champions' on ABC's 'Sing Your Face Off.'
Brian May remembers what those final recording sessions with Freddie Mercury were like.
Dexter Fletcher has left the project, citing the usual "creative differences."
Sacha Baron Cohen was attached to the Freddie Mercury biopic for many years, but once the project started moving forward Cohen left, and the film seemed like it might die. But then Ben Whishaw joined and actor-turned-director Dexter Fletcher was hired to helm the project. Now Fletcher has left the film, citing "creative differences," which makes us wonder if this project is cursed.
Brian May says he's often thought of the way Freddie Mercury handled his final illness when dealing with the aftermath of the Queen guitarist's own health scare. Mercury died in 1991 from complications relating to the AIDS virus.
After months of delays, word is now circulating that Dexter Fletcher has been tapped to direct the Freddie Mercury biopic. Perhaps more importantly, Ben Whishaw will play Freddie Mercury, replacing Sacha Baron Cohen, who left over the summer.
In 1983, Freddie Mercury recorded some tracks with Michael Jackson that have remained in Queen's vault. Now, drummer Roger Taylor tells us that he and Brian May have completed them, and the songs will see the light of day, pending approval from Jackson's estate.

|Davis wishes for superhero power
|01.14.10 at 8:39 pm ET
BOSTON — Here's something for "Heroes" fans to ponder: If Glen Davis could pick one character to be, who would he choose?
The answer is a petite blonde cheerleader.
OK, OK, hear him out.
"I wish I was a 'Hero.' I wish I was Claire," he said as he looked at his bandaged right hand. "Claire heals so she can never die. She just heals."
That's all Davis has been trying to do since breaking his right thumb in October. Last night he banged it during the game against the Nets, and today he had to repeatedly ice it to keep the swelling down.
"Bone healed nicely, that's what the doctor said," he said. "So hopefully it won't break."
Davis will continue to play through the pain. He already has made up his mind to do so.
"In the words of Danny Ainge, back in those days, this ain't nothing," he said.
|Inside the Game: Rajon Rondo and the art of passing
|01.12.10 at 11:58 pm ET
Last week, Rajon Rondo helped pull off one of the most memorable plays of this season ' an inbound lob from Paul Pierce with 0.6 seconds left that Rondo converted for a basket to force overtime against the Heat. The scheme worked because Rondo was the most unsuspecting target on two fronts: Not only was he the smallest player on the court for the Celtics, he usually is the guy dishing, not receiving.
Rondo considers his passing skills to be a natural ability. He didn't grow up studying point guards. He didn't even grow up watching basketball at all. Finding the open man was just something that came to him on the court.
'I don't know if it's a skill. Maybe it's just natural,' he said. 'I think it's just like a natural feel for the game. I pride myself on making guys better, so I would rather do that than score the ball.'
Rondo set the school records for most assists in a single game (31) and season (494) at Oak Hill Academy in 2004. He went on to lead the SEC in dimes (4.9 APG) as a sophomore at the University of Kentucky.
Now in his fourth season with the Celtics, Rondo is seeing the court better than ever before. He leads the Eastern Conference with 9.6 assists per game and ranks fourth among all players ' behind only Steve Nash, Chris Paul and Deron Williams. He has already recorded 336 assists in his first 35 games of the season, closing in on his mark of 393 from the 2008 championship campaign and more than half-way to last season's tally of 659. (The Celtics currently rank second in the league with 23.83 assists per game.)
As part of WEEI.com's 'Inside the Game' series with the Celtics, Rondo talked no-look assists, alley-oops with Kevin Garnett, the impact of Ubuntu, and the art of passing:
Wait for it: Identifying who is open is only half the battle. The key is knowing when to dish it.
'It just depends on the defense, where he's at on the court. You can't really predetermine when to make the pass. It just has to be like a natural instinct. Sometimes you can try to predetermine and it can go either way. It can be a turnover or it can be a good pass. When the opportunity presents itself, you've got to make the decision at a certain time.'
No formula for the no-look: Rondo has a way of baffling his defenders by making the pass they least expect.
'Maybe just practice, try [no-look passes] every once in a while. But not now. You try to be solid and not make the home run pass, but it's just natural for me. I don't really try to do it to get the oohs and the ahhs. It's the play I feel I need to make at the time. I may not be able to make the simple pass and it has to be the trickery bounce pass or the no-look pass to confuse the defense.'
Dynamic dunking duo: The chemistry on the court between Rondo and Kevin Garnett makes alley-oops look effortless. But as Rondo explains, it takes a certain kind of player to pull off the dunk.
'Everybody can't do it. There are guys in the league that can do it, but it may be four or five things ' you've got to have the athleticism, perceptiveness, the setup, knowing when to do it, you've got to be a good player. Part of the reason why [Garnett] gets so many lobs is because people fear him getting the ball. If he gets the ball, he's going to score, so they try to deny him the ball. He has great coordination, great timing. When he spins out, he loses track of the ball, so after he turns around he has to go up and find the ball and then find the rim. It's not as easy as it looks. He does a great job at it.'
Passing off the credit: Rondo draws a direct correlation between his stats and his teammates' offensive performances. The Celtics are ranked second in the league in field goal percentage (48.7 percent) this season, helping Rondo rack up the assists.
'You know what's different? Guys like Rasheed Wallace, Ray Allen, they're making shots. It's pretty simple. I may be making a couple better plays, my assist-to-turnover ratio, but other than that, guys are making shots. [Kendrick Perkins] is shooting at a high level, KG is shooting at a high level, Paul went 100 percent from the 3 (twice in December). Guys are making shots. Not that we didn't in years before, but this time I've got to give them all the credit, really. Without them making shots, there's no assists.'
Ubuntu = APG: He may only be 23, but Rondo learned an important lesson early in his career. Now he wants to share that with his younger fans.
'I think that stands out the most on the court' unselfishness. It's not necessarily ballhandling, it's being unselfish for your teammates, sacrificing for your teammates. My situation is me giving up the ball to make somebody better. KG and Perk just defensively helping out when I may get beat off the dribble, their unselfishness just to come over and help makes me look better or maybe not look as bad as I was on defense. So, for a team to be a great team, I think you have to have a lot of people sacrifice a lot of things. We had the Big Three that came in, all leading their teams in scoring, they all had to sacrifice shots. They all did a great job of it. It's not just me. It's the whole team. It's the whole team concept. That's where Ubuntu comes in. I can go on and on about it.'

|Fast Break: Celtics vs. Hawks
|01.11.10 at 10:08 pm ET
BOSTON ' Kevin Garnett and Rasheed Wallace didn't have to be playing for fans to get their money's worth. This game lived up to the hype and intensity that has become customary between the Celtics and Hawks since the 2008 playoffs. After leading by as many as 14, the Celtics were upset 102-96. But that wasn't without comebacks, hard fouls, and ejections.
Player of the Game: Jamal Crawford went scoreless in the first half before scoring 17 points in the final two quarters. Even though Joe Johnson led all scorers with 36 points, Crawford hit clutch free throws and buckets to propel the Hawks down the stretch.
Turning Point: The Celtics led 67-57 with 6:16 left in the third before the chaos broke out. Here's how it all went down ' Glen Davis got called for a flagrant foul on Marvin Williams (Zaza Pachulia had previously been called for a flagrant). Doc Rivers emphatically argued the ruling and got hit with two consecutive technicals, resulting in an ejection. As he walked off the court, he handed his notes over to assistant coach Armond Hill, who also got T'ed up before the clock even started again. Crawford hit three free throws and Williams knocked one down during the technical spree, cutting the Celtics lead to four. The Hawks then went on a 14-8 run to tie the game up at 75 apiece off of a Crawford trey. The Celtics never regained momentum and were outscored 25-16 in the fourth quarter.
– Paul Pierce attempted just two field goals in the fourth quarter, and missed them both. Rajon Rondo, who shot scored 17 points in the first half, scored just nine in the second.
– In a game of whistles, the Hawks made 33 trips to the free throw line (23-for-33) while the Celtics shot 14-for-18.
– Athleticsm came into play again tonight ' the Celtics were outscored 15-9 on fastbreak points. They were outscored 22-15 by the Hawks last Friday night.
– Brian Scalabrine got his first start since February 23, 2009 in place of Rasheed Wallace. He posted nine points, five rebounds, and four fouls in 21 minutes.
– Mike Bibby continues to be booed by Celtics fans on every possession. He played just 18 minutes (5 points, 2-for-3 FG) and did not play the entire fourth quarter.
– The Celtics will play the Hawks again on January 29 in Atlanta.
|Fast Break: Celtics vs. Raptors
|01.10.10 at 3:52 pm ET
The Celtics continued to dominate the Raptors with a 114-107 win on Sunday in Toronto. The C's have won seven straight over the Raptors and have not lost to them since January 23, 2008.
Player of the Game: Two Celtics deserve recognition for this accolade. Rajon Rondo recorded a triple-double with 22 points, 10 rebounds, and 13 assists. Rasheed Wallace contributed 29 points (9-12 FG, 5-7 3PG, 6-6 FT), the most he has scored in a Celtics uniform. Wallace also came up with a critical steal with a minute to go as the Raptors closed in by six.
Turning Point: The Celtics established their control early on in the game. They jumped out to a 10-0 lead in the first 1:41 and got the entire team involved. Wallace, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce, and Kendrick Perkins all scored baskets; Pierce, Perkins, and Rondo grabbed a rebound, and Rondo dished four assists. Even though the Raptors went on runs late in the game to threaten the Celtics lead, this early advantage gave the C's a cushion throughout the afternoon.
– All of the Celtics starters scored in double digits eight minutes into the third quarter. Pierce added 16 points in his second game back from a right knee infection.
– The Celtics held Hedo Turkoglu scoreless until 6:24 in the third. He finished the game with just five points (2-for-9 FG).
– Chris Bosh fouled out with ten seconds left in the game. He led all scorers with 31 points.
|Hudson: I Learned A Lot
|at 1:22 am ET
Consider it an accelerated learning program.
In less than seven months, Lester Hudson received a hands-on education from one of the most talented basketball organizations in the NBA. He practiced against future Hall of Famers, received coaching from former pros, and learned the ropes behind an emerging All-Star.
The rookie gained more knowledge in a few short months than some players do in an entire season.
Now Hudson, who was waived by the Celtics last Wednesday, looks forward to applying what he learned from the C's on to the court for the Grizzlies. The Memphis native was claimed off of waivers by his hometown team on Friday.
'I was very sad, very sad when the Celtics let me go,' he told WEEI.com in a telephone interview. 'But I'm very happy to play back in my hometown.'
Hudson looks forward to sharing his experiences with the young Grizzlies squad, whose average age is 24 years old. Not only did he learn from veterans such as Paul Pierce, Ray Allen, and Kevin Garnett, he also formed a close bond with one of the hottest young point guards in the league today.
'I learned a lot from (Rajon) Rondo,' he said. 'He's my best friend on the team I'd say, so I learned a lot. He's a great point guard. I think he'll be an All-Star this year, so it was great playing behind him, learning how he ran the floor, ran the offense, and got everyone in position. That was my biggest thing coming in as a point guard, learning how to run an NBA team, and he helped me out with that.'
Hudson also received proven advice from the Celtics coaching staff. Both head coach Doc Rivers and director of basketball development Tyronn Lue are former NBA point guards. Hudson worked closely with Lue during practice.
'It was great having Ty Lue there,' he said. 'He was a great point guard in the NBA and he taught me how to be aggressive, coming off the pick-and-roll, stuff like that, just trying to make the plays for the other guys. He helped me out a lot.'
Many of the Celtics have reached out to Hudson since he was waived, including Rondo and Marquis Daniels. Lue and assistant coach Mike Longabardi have contacted him as well.
Hudson does not harbor any ill will toward the team that selected him with the 58th pick in the 2009 NBA draft. He averaged just 4.4 minutes in 16 games for the Celtics and had also spent time in the D-League. Hudson understood the Celtics decision to waive him before they would have had to guarantee his contract.
'They said it was a hard decision,' he said. 'They didn't want to do that, but they were trying to get some room for the team if they needed a veteran point guard to come in for the playoffs, and I understood that. They said I was going to be in the NBA and just keep working hard.'
Hudson's career in Boston may have been cut short, but he didn't need long with the Celtics to gain invaluable lessons that he can share with his new teammates in Memphis.
'I can tell them just to work hard,' he said. 'Because that's why [the Celtics are] one of the best in the NBA right now.'

|Fast Break: Celtics vs. Heat
|01.06.10 at 10:50 pm ET
The Celtics overcame a double-digit deficit in the fourth quarter to beat the Heat, 112-106, in dramatic fashion on the road in overtime. This game wasn't pretty — the Celtics committed 24 turnovers while the Heat attempted 98 shots — but the C's fended off 44 points from Dwayne Wade to get the win.
Player of the Game: Kudos to Paul Pierce for perfectly executing the game-tying alley-oop to Rajon Rondo, but this award goes to the recipient of the pass. Not only did Rondo send the Celtics into overtime, he led them in the final five minutes. Rondo finished with a team-high 25 points.
Turning Point: After Wade hit a pair of game-tying free throws, the Celtics had an opportunity to hit the game-winner with 5.5 seconds left. Wade stole the ball from Ray Allen at halfcourt and slammed the go-ahead bucket to put the Heat up, 101-99, with 0.6 seconds to go. The Celtics responded with one of the best plays of the season ' an inbound alley-oop from Pierce to Rondo as time expired to force overtime.
– Pierce posted 17 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists in his return from a knee infection.
– The Celtics committed 24 turnovers to just 11 by the Heat.
– Free throws were a huge deciding factor in this game. The Celtics shot 33-for-41; the Heat shot 20-for-27.
– Rasheed Wallace played a stretch in the fourth quarter with five fouls. He eventually fouled out fighting for a rebounds with Udonis Haslem, and the Celtics bench quickly stepped in front of him on the sidelines to prevent him from arguing the call.
– After getting his first NBA start last weekend, J.R. Giddens did not play on Wednesday.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel Niza San Sebastiįn - Donostia
Good Hotel, Somewhat rude front desk staff
After doing a lot of research on where to stay in San Sebastian I decided to go with Hotel Niza. It was a great place to stay. The rooms were clean and seemed to be remodeled in the last year or two. We went with another couple and I had requested oceanview rooms and we got them. Granted, it's the off-season in May so I'm not sure how full the hotel was...anyway, the rooms were great and the views spectacular. Also, the restaurant in the basement was packed on Saturday night within 5 minutes after opening. Really good food at a good price. My one complaint was that two of the female front desk clerks were somewhat rude and condescending. There was a man who was wonderful. So, if you can get by the front desk, the rest of your stay at Hotel Niza will be wonderful. NO REGRETS!!!
Loved the Niza
Our son, who was living in Spain, made the reservations for us. Staying there at the Niza, with the Promenade, the ocean view from the bar, the street view from our room, the food, drinks, people, everything made it the perfect dream come true vacation. We hope to stay there again in the near future.
Romantic stay
Beautiful room, stunning view . If you are looking for a romantic holidays with you love one. this is the place.
Nicely done Niza!
I spent a couple of days at the Niza over Easter and was very pleased with the accomodation and the central location. The Hotel is very quaint (with the cutest elevator) and nicely decorated and our room was simple, fairly spacious, with clean lines and a fresh look. I found the staff very helpful and friendly despite reports to the contrary.
Another bonus is Bar Biarritz at the front of the hotel - which is an excellent spot to read the papers and watch the people on the promenade. I thought the Niza was great and would definitely recommend it - especially if you manage to secure a sea-view.
Bad Service-Poor Facilities
Stayed at the Hotel Niza for, thank goodness, only one night and found it a total dissapointment. The unfriendly staff had to be asked three times for a roll away bed which we had requested at the time we made our reservation. The room itself was less than fresh reeking of a chocking air freshener. Under the bed the wood floor was thick with dust and various spots on the walls and wood work needed attention.
Course when we checked in, even the lobby looked like it needed a good steam cleaning. Though we did get nice ocean view rooms (they made us e-mail and call twice) we might have been more satisfied with a warmer welcome and less attitude.
Great time at the Niza!
I had a great experience at the Niza. Spent a week in San Sebastian first week of Sept. with college friends from the states and we all agreed that it was perfect for what we were looking for. Beautiful views of La Concha beach, oceanfront rooms that we didn't even request, one with a balcony. Walking distance to the old town with great pinxto bars. Decor was very beachy and pretty, with a very cool Victorian elevator. The staff was very helpful even before we arrived, as I called several times to make changes to the reservation. And then at the end of the trip when we decided to go to Barcelona a day early, they let us check out a day ahead for no charge. Prices were very reasonable and simple continental breakfast was included. Would definitely stay there again on another trip and have recommended to everyone I know.
Worst hotel staff in Europe
I had heard mixed things about the Niza, a pretty hotel located right
on the beach in San Sebastian, but as the price of 110 euros seemed
reasonable, I decided to try it. The problem started when I made a
reservation for 2 nights by phone with a male staff member. I called
one week later to change my resevation to add another night, making it
3 nights, three nights and was told that there was no reservation. When
I explained I had made it by phone, the woman at reception directly
told me that I was lying, because otherwise the reservation would have
been there. This is a hotel that has the nerve to tell their customers
that they are liers. I couldn't believe it. Why would I lie, like I
have nothing better to do than call hotels claiming to have made a
Unfortuantely, I needed the room as San Sebastian has very few hotels
and it was 2 days before my trip. The Niza had a room aavailable, and I
had to go there if I wanted a room in town, so I bit my pride and made
a "new" booking. When I arrived, reception staff were rude and
unbelievably unsmiley and unfriendly, not only to me but to everyone
and apparently even to each other. The room we got was horrific, tiny
(the bed was about 2 feet from the door) , tacky, kitsch, with a view
of a gray wall 5 feet away from the window. the room was literally in
front of the elevator (which we heard all night) and we were woken up
at 7AM with the sound of the cleaning staff's trolleys, as their room
was right next door. The cleaning staff were loud and yelling down the
halls at each other. I don't go on vacation to wake up at 7AM!! The
staff were equally rude in the morning at check out, as were the staff
at breakfast. Breakfast was bad, the coffee was the worst I have had in
Spain and the hot food they had looked like it was reheated frozen
junk. There was something that resembled reconstituted scarmbled eggs
but they were such an unnatural orange color, that I didn't dare.
I have never in all of my travels in Spain experienced such rude staff, and despite the reasonable price I am prepared to pay more to be treated with the respect and care that a customer should receive. I should have gone to the Londres, where the staff were much nicer when I went over to investigate, unfortunately the hotel was full. The Londres is much more beutiful inside, as well. the decor in the Niza is not antique, it's dated.
In no uncertain terms, I would never recommend to anyone that they stay
in the Niza unless they want to be treated like dirt. It is evident
that there is extremely poor management there.
Surprising comfort & value
We reserved two double rooms for single use, requesting sea view rooms. The return fax could not promise ocean views, but upon arrival we were given neighboring ocean side rooms (mid October 2003). The price was astonishing -- 64 Euros per room, plus 7% tax (breakfast extra at 6.5 Euros). Continental breakfast can be augmented by eggs and bacon. We kept wondering when we'd discover the flaws, but there were none. Rooms were large, beautifully furnished and impeccably clean. Recently refurbished (very modern) bathrooms. Each room had an upholstered chair, desk, twin beds and matching night stands. PLENTY of lamps and sconces for reading. Cable TV with 4 English channels (also, French and German). Warm, helpful staff. Located right in the center of La Concha beach (wide sand), easy walking distance along pedestrian sea promenade to the Old Town with its dozens of tapas bars and restaurants. Popular inexpensive pizza & pasta restaurant in basement of hotel. Bar (entrance from sea side of hotel) serves the best grilled ham and cheese sandwich for only 2.6 Euros. I'm going to stay here again when I return to San Sebastian.
Bad time at the Niza
we stayd at the Niza hotel during the month of august , i reserved rooms well in advance , the hotel is well situated facing the la concha beach . the rooms facing the sea are reserved ( i guess by repeat costumers ) and we could not get rooms facing the sea , the rooms we got were on the third floor facing the street , to our great dismay the noise and shouts from passersby filtered into the room , the noise was awefull . breakfast is included in room price but it is such a poor affair served in a demeaning way . we left two days early couldnt stand the noise .
Niza couldn't be nicer
I spent four days at The Niza and loved it. There are wonderful paintings everywhere. It's chic, in a great location on the Concha and the staff are friendly and helpful. I was there alone and felt really comfortable. Try the thalassoptherapy centre just along the promenade - it's blissful.

How to Introduce Sex Toys into Your Relationship
By DominaL on January 03, 2013
Many couples today use adult toys to help spice up their sex life. The problem is that many couples are very unfamiliar with their use and may find it difficult to discuss or introduce the concept. There's no shame in having an open discussion so that you both get a good idea of your thoughts on sex toys and any fears that you may have about introducing them into your relationship.
A great tip is to start out using various massage oils. Oils are not necessarily considered sex toys, but people love the feeling of being massaged with oil. It has dual benefits, your partners relaxes and it often causes arousal in both of you.
Our second recommendation is to play sex board games. These types of games teach you different positions and explore areas your sex life you may have never discovered before.
Now that you've opened your mind and are finding your relationship open more and more to experimentation, it's time for the third recommendation - vibrators. The first thing that you need to consider when considering purchasing a vibrator is what kind of stimulation you like. Do you to like direct clitoral stimulation? G-spot? If you're not sure, you should start with a vibrator that can be used both internally or externally for maximum pleasure. If direct stimulation turns you on, you should consider a "bullet" vibrator.Once you become comfortable using a vibrator and are ready to go a bit further, our suggestion would be to graduate to a "rabbit-style" vibrator.
The next suggestion is to add some spice into your life by adding costumes. These types of garments can include wigs, lingerie, sexy wear, and a variety of character costumes for role play. Use your imagination! Lingerie is a good way to begin and then you can move up to more creative costumes for more intense role playing.
It is important to have frequent, open discussions as you explore more and more exciting and enticing options in your sex life. We suggest sitting down together and viewing the various categories of a sex toy catalog. Viewing the types of toys and implements will open the discussion to other areas of interest and, as always.....only your imagination limits where this will take you!
Lovingly Yours,
