Looking for Hollywood Beach, Florida Oceanfront Hotel? My family and I are planning a vacation preferably in Hollywood. I lived there for about 3 months back when I was about 11 years old (back in '92, culminating with Hurricane Andrew). Anyway, I've been all over the internet looking for the best match (with little luck) I was curious if anyone could suggest a hotel meeting (or at least really close) this criteria: Room for 4 people (2 adults, 2 kids ages 9 & 12). Basically 2 double beds or one queen and a pull-out couch, that would work too. Between $100-120 a night. A pool, preferably on the beach. Did I mention on the beach? lol Smoking rooms available. WiFi access. I'd really like a balcony, at least semi-waterfront. I'm not sure if every beachfront hotel is on the Broadwalk, but I'm hoping to find one near it as well. Is all of this asking too much for the price I'm looking for? I know I can get most of the things I'm looking for at the Ramada Hollywood Beach Resort, but the reviews are a little sketchy. Any thoughts on that? Thanks for any help anybody can give.

Good hotels in Disney World, Florida? Alright so me and my mother are going to Disney World, Florida. We want to stay IN Disney, not in any theme park, just on the land near the parks.

Can someone who is under 21 but over 18 be on the slots floor in Florida? I'm turning 21 next week, and am going to go to the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida to celebrate. I would like a good friend of mine to come with us, but she's 19. I've heard that minors aren't even allowed to be on the slot machine floor, but since she is over 18, can she still hang out with us as long as she doesn't touch the machines? Thanks! To the guy who said I could get in serious trouble if I try that... Try what? Kids, even under 18 years, are allowed to walk through the casino if they are with their parents. They just aren't allowed to stay on the floor. All I'm asking is if my 19-year-old, legal adult friend, is allowed to stay on the floor with us if she does not gamble or even come close to the machines.
Anna Nicole Smith has Died.......Do you care??? (CNN) -- Reality TV star and former model Anna Nicole Smith was pronounced dead Thursday after being taken to a Florida hospital, a law enforcement source told CNN. Smith, 39, collapsed at a south Florida hotel, according to news reports. "I can confirm that she is deceased. It's as shocking to me as to you guys," Smith's attorney, Ronald Rale, told Reuters. "I don't know anything further. [Her lawyer and husband] Howard [K. Stern], obviously, is speechless and grieving." TMZ.com had reported that Smith collapsed at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida, and was rushed to Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood just after 2 p.m. ET. According to reports, Smith was found unresponsive in her hotel room. Smith was involved in a paternity suit regarding the parentage of her daughter, Danielynn, as well as other disputes, including some regarding a house she stayed at in the Bahamas around the time she gave birth. Earlier this week, Smith was included in a class-action lawsuit against a company, TrimSpa, for which she had worked as a spokesperson. TrimSpa makes a product it claims leads to substantial weight loss. The lawsuit alleges the marketing of the product, TrimSpa X32, was false or misleading. Smith's son, Daniel Wayne Smith, died at age 20 just days after the birth of Smith's daughter. Pathologist Cyril Wecht said a lethal dose of methadone and antidepressants caused cardiac dysrhythmia, leading to his death. http://www.cnn.com/2007/SHOWBIZ/TV/02/08/anna.nicole.collapses/index.html

Miami and Hollywood Florida is it safe? I'm going there very shortly and I heard that the hotel we are staying at Ramada Beach Resort in Hollywood is very unsafe.. i'm kind of scared for real. How about Miami? *I am from chicago so is it basically like that -some parts bad, some good and just avoid the bad?* Jake and to anybody else who might be confused. There is a Hollywood Florida. You would know that if you knew the area. So if you don't know the area please don't respond Jake...
>>>>Is THIS ILLEGAL??????? ok, on google when you look up hotels in the hollywood, florida area, there is a large hotel that comes up as "Free Beach Resort". When you go to the website, it looks very unprofessional and says that it is 100% free: http://freebeachresort.freehostia.com/ is this a legal entity?? or is it a money laundering thing because it says you need to be 18 or older?
Do you think that there should be murder charges in the case of Anna Nicole Smith? I just read this article. It makes me so sad that these people did this to her. I think that they were trying to kill her so that Howard Stern could possibly inherit her money and pay off the doctors. He so badly wanted to be the father of Dannielyn, and I believe not for love, but for the money. What low-lifes! ****Anna Nicole Smith's longtime partner and attorney, Howard K. Stern, and a doctor were jailed Thursday on charges of conspiring to furnish drugs before her death in 2007, authorities said. Dangerous cocktails of prescription drugs were pumped into Smith "almost to the point of stupefaction" and eventually led to her death, California Attorney General Jerry Brown said Friday. Stern and Dr. Sandeep Kapoor were arrested and later released from a Los Angeles County jail Thursday night after each posted a $20,000 bond, a police spokesman said. Dr. Khristine Eroshevich also faces charges and is expected to turn herself in Monday, authorities said. The doctors and Stern devised a plan to use fake names so Smith could be prescribed "thousands of pills," Brown said. Her doctors knew she was addicted, Brown said. "The quantity of the drugs, the variety of the drugs, the combination at any given point and her continuing to use that; that, to a professional, is clear evidence of addiction," Brown said. "These cocktails of methadone and antidepressants and sleeping pills and Xanax, you put all that into a cocktail, it explodes and can cause death, injury and permanent morbidity and disability," he said. Smith, 39, was pronounced dead February 8, 2007, after being found unconscious in her hotel room at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino near Hollywood, Florida. The former Playboy playmate and reality TV star died from an accidental overdose of prescription drugs, a coroner said. Several prescription medications -- both in Smith's and Stern's names -- were found in the room after her death. Officials said prescription and over-the-counter drugs were found in Smith's system, including three antidepressant or antianxiety drugs. Also found in toxicology testing was human growth hormone and chloral hydrate, a sleep medication, officials said. Stern and Kapoor, both 40, and Eroshevich, 61, each were charged with eight felonies, including conspiring to furnish controlled substances, unlawfully prescribing a controlled substance and obtaining fraudulent prescriptions from June 2004 to January 2007 -- only weeks before Smith's death. Kapoor and Eroshevich also were each charged with obtaining a prescription for opiates by "fraud, deceit or misrepresentation." And each was charged with one count of obtaining a prescription for opiates by giving a false name or address, according to the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office. Smith was buried in the Bahamas on March 2, 2007, next to the grave of her son, Daniel, who had died in September 2006, days after the birth of her daughter, Dannielynn. Brown said his office will aggressively target California doctors who over-prescribe dangerous drugs. "People think those drug dealers on the street corners are the only threat," he said. "As a matter of fact, people in white smocks and pharmacies and with their medical degrees are a growing threat, and we aim to curtail it and curb it in the best way we can." **** I forgot to add the "K" to Howard K. Stern at the beginning.****

Poll: What do you think caused the death of Anna Nicole Smith? The former model died after collapsing in a Florida hotel. The cause of death is under investigation. HOLLYWOOD, Fla. - Anna Nicole Smith, the pneumatic blonde whose life played out as an extraordinary tabloid tale — jeans model, Playboy centerfold, widow of an octogenarian billionaire, reality-show subject, tragic mother — died Thursday after collapsing at a hotel. She was 39. There are a number of possibilities," Perper said, including natural causes, a drug reaction or some combination of causes. Perper said there was no indication of blunt-force trauma, asphyxiation or other physical trauma. He said Smith had a small bruise on her back, which probably resulted from a fall in the bathtub earlier in the week. The medical examiner said his office is awaiting results of toxicological and other tests, but there were no drugs in Smith's stomach. He said if she had taken a large number of pills, some of the medicine would have remained in the stomach. There also was no evidence of long-term drug abuse, Perper said. Tiger said no evidence suggests a crime occurred and all witnesses were cooperating with the investigation. He said police were still analyzing surveillance tapes from the hotel, but so far had seen nothing unusual.
Are you upset by this? Anna Nicole Smith collapsed at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida and is reported to have died shortly after. According to hotel officials, Smith was "unresponsive" and emergency responders performed CPR at the scene and a breathing apparatus was inserted in her throat. Anna was immediately transported to Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood just after 2:00 PM EST. WFOR-TV in Miami reports that Anna was found unresponsive in her hotel room. Local streets were closed off to rush Smith to the hospital, three miles away. Paramedics were seen pumping her chest as she was taken from the hotel. Anna had been hospitalized for a week last November with pneumonia. Daughter Dannielynn, subject of an ongoing DNA test battle, was born on September 7. Her son Daniel died of a drug overdose on September 10. Anna frequented the Hard Rock. Just a month ago, a playful Anna was caught showing off new body art to Hulk Hogan during a boxing match.
omg did everyone hear about anna nicole smith? Its a shame-"I can confirm that she is deceased. It's as shocking to me as to you guys," Smith's attorney, Ronald Rale, told Reuters. "I don't know anything further. (Her lawyer and husband) Howard (K. Stern) obviously is speechless and grieving. The sudden death of Smith came just five months after Smith's 20-year-old son, Daniel Smith, died in the Bahamas three days after the birth of her daughter. Smith was found in her hotel room and given CPR by Seminole tribal fire rescue and Hollywood fire rescue workers, said Michael Bloom, president of the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida. Smith's nurse called hotel workers at the hotel at 1:38 p.m. and security went to the hotel room, hotel officials said. Fire rescue workers from both the Seminole Indian tribe and from Hollywood arrived minutes later and Smith was taken to Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood at 2:10 p.m. Smith had been ordered to have her five-month-old baby girl undergo a paternity test as part of a lawsuit by an ex-boyfriend, Larry Birkhead. Birkhead sued Smith in October, demanding she have the paternity test because he believed he was the father of the girl. Smith had said her lawyer, Howard K. Stern, is the father of the baby. Smith, who was born Vickie Lynn Hogan and raised in the small Texas town of Mexia, grew up emulating screen legend Marilyn Monroe. She met elderly oil billionaire J. Howard Marshall while dancing at a Houston strip club and married him in 1994, when she was 26 and he 89. Marshall died the following year and Smith spent much of the following decade battling members of his family over his estate. In May of 2006 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Smith could pursue her case in federal court. Smith, who modelled Guess Jeans, was named Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Year in 1994 and had film roles that year in "The Hudsucker Proxy" and "Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult."

How much time should we spend at Hollywood Studios? My dad and I are driving down to Florida in a few days. We're going to leave on Saturday and drive all day, then drive the last few hours on Sunday morning. We're going to Hollywood Studios that same day, after we get settled in the hotel. My question is, how much time should I plan on spending at Studios at this time of year? I've been there before, but my dad hasn't, so there's a lot to see. I know we'll be pretty tired from driving so we want to rest a little bit first. What time should we arrive at Studios if it closes at 10? Thanks!

Help with Orlando Hotel for me and 5 year old son? I need a little help with planning a trip to orlando with my 5 year old son. Its our 1st time going to Orlando, Florida :) I have only booked my flights so far, could anyone recommend a good hotel for the 1st two weeks of march 2011? I was about to book Holiday Inn Club Vacations Orlando - Orange Lake Resort, which looks like a great resort, our own kitchen (to save a bit of money) and the pools and everything looks amazing..however after reading reviews on trip advisor there seems to be a LOT of extra costs, like $9 a day for tubes for the lazy river and $15 each for a shuttle bus to the disney parks etc. :/ and i plan to go to the disney parks almost everyday for the 2 weeks! My friend told me some hotels offer free shuttle buses to the parks and i came across Gaylord Palms, another gorgeous hotel but they only have small rooms with no kitchen so we'll have to eat out everynight. I've searched the internet and the two best hotels i could find (in my price range was these 2 hotels). Would it be too much hassle maybe booking 1 week in the Holiday Inn, Orange Lake and 1 week in Gaylord Palms? As we'd get free shuttles in one hotel and great pools in the other! Or should i book into the same hotel for the 2 weeks? I'm so confused! Has anyone stayed at either of these hotels? Could anybody recommend any other good hotels around the disney area, preferably with free shuttles to the parks, and good pools, and lots of things to do at the hotel, as i plan to spent the rest of the holiday relaxing at the hotel. Also Im not goin to rent a car as its only me and my son and with the cost of parking at disney, fuel and the Daily Surcharge for drivers under 25, it wouldnt be worth it. Whats the weather like the 1st two weeks of March? Also which parks would you recommend for a 5 year old? The Walt Disney Resort or to get the Orlando FlexTicket, or the Orlando Freedom Ticket which lets you visit: * Magic Kingdom Park * Epcot * Disney's Hollywood Studios * Disney's Animal Kingdom * Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park* * Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park* * Universal Studios Florida * Universal's Islands of Adventure * SeaWorld Orlando * Aquatica * Busch Gardens Tampa Bay Which would be the best for a 5 year old? If we got the Orlando Freedom Ticket, would we have enough time to visit much diffrent parks, or would it be a waste of money? After looking both of them up, I thought the Orlando Flexiticket looked best, but would my 5 year old enjoy it? Sorry for all the question :) hope someone will be able to help, Thanks.
Where should my story take place? Glitter: Victoria Lancer is living the dream -- for the most part. She has millions of fans, headlines sold out concerts, and gets invited to the biggest Hollywood parties. Yes, Hollywood parties sound good. But not when you're eighteen and can pass for twenty-two. Which means, yes, drinking alcohol. Not even one year ago was Vic trying desperately to get into the singing business. She sang at local bars, clubs and hotels. While performing for a small crowd at a five-star hotel, she was taken from her room which she was staying at for the night and was dragged into the hotel's boiler room where she was sexually harassed and raped. Now after a year of hiding, Victoria gets enrolled into Sadshire Academy, an all girl's boarding school, to finish her senior year of high school. There she meets a few life long acquaintances and a friend she is forced to forget. That's the plot. USA please.. I was thinking somewhere in Florida, California, New York, Washington, or Chicago. Thanks.
How much is a trip to Orlando for 1 week 2 people? I want to take my boyfriend to Orlando Florida. I want to go to Epcot, Magical Kingdom, Hollywood Studios and both Univeral parks for 1 week in Orlando... How much would it cost? Thats with food, parking, hotel, souvenirs and tickets and all that good stuff! I figured $2000- $2500, but I could be missing some things... plus I think we're just gonna drive there from Alabama so we don't have to spend a fortune and have a headache with plane tickets and car rentals.
Why don't more Canadians live on the ocean beaches? Canada is great as it is, but I notice one thing missing. Canada could have at least one city along the lines of "Monte Carlo on the French Riviera with 24-hour nightlife and the surf and sand. Or like South Beach, Miami, Florida or Fort Lauderdale (South Florida) where tropical beaches with latin salsa music and delicious cuisines all along an ocean strip with jacuzis and hotel lounges. You could put more of that in Canada in summer when beach weather permits. Or like Los Angeles sunset strip or Hollywood Boulevard. Don't Canadians like to vacation to these beach cities every so often? I don't want the Maritimes to become like that though because it has a unique flavour of its own, a more intimate traditional flavour. But depending on the mood, you may want the night-life techno DJ club cafe party-all-night type of beach town, and Canada doesn't seem to have that. Canada could make a city more like Miami Beach and use gas lamps to warm the air and make this beach paradise off the East Coast of Nunavut. Why not? And then have casino cruises to Hans Island. Why don't Canadians want to live on the beach sometimes and make castles in the sand and surf the waves of the ocean? I guess Canada could have a sister city to one of these: 1) Honolulu, Miami Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Cancun, Rio De Janeiro, Buenos Aires, Monte Carlo, San Remo, Barcelona, Bangkok, Beirut, Tel Aviv And you could eat maple creams on the beach and mix it with rum and tequilla Edit: But Vancouver is not a Canadian city, it's the Westernmost part of China. But of all of China, my favourite Chinese city is Vancouver, Ex-British Columbia. This may be the first time in history that Chinese cities got to host back-to-back Olympics. Beijing, now Vancouver I actually do like the Canadian beaches for their uniqueness, and I was joking about Vancouver being China
My English paper. Does it sound ok? Spinning in the tea cups at Disney World, I couldn’t focus on just one thing so I looked at Katie sitting across from me. It was autumn 2004, and I was in fourth grade. My trip to Disney World was the most memorable experience of my life. We’ve been wanting to go there for a while and finally bought out tickets and got a hotel room. When we began driving I had no idea what was in store for me, who knew Ohio was so big?! We had to take two cars to fit all of us. I was me, my sister Savanna, my cousin Kaitlynne, Nana, Papa, Mom and my aunt and uncle. Two days in the car with your cousin and sister would sound miserable, bit it really wasn’t. We had fun on the was there. We stopped at Savannah, Georgia to take a picture because Savanna thought it was cool that there was a city that was the same name as hers. In South Carolina we went to the beach and collected seashells. There were houses down there that reminded me of Dr. Seuss’ drawings. They were abnormally shaped and seemed like cookie jars rather than houses. Just when we crossed the Florida border Katie, Savanna and I asked my mom almost every minute “are we there yet?!” At last we were! I saw the sign that said, “Walt Disney World, Where Dreams Come True” accompanied by Mickey Mouse and a bunch of palm trees! I couldn’t have been any more excited! We went to the front desks and checked in, and then we made our way to the Fantasia hotel. Our room was right by the huge statue of a ballerina and a toy soldier. We got right to the Magic Kingdom to see Cinderella’s castle and ride some rides. I saw Walt Disney’s statue of him and Mickey Mouse called “Partners” right when we walked it. Just seeing it was unforgettable. There, I met Alice, Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dumb from my all time favorite movie, Alice in Wonderland. Tweedle-Dee took out my hair and tied it up in a side pony, I was just laughing the whole time and my mom was taking pictures. Katie was talking to Alice, and Savanna was getting her picture with Tweedle-Dumb. That experience was one I’ll never forget. We took pictures with all of the Disney characters; I got their autographs and everything. We went to Epcot, which was really cool. There, we went to italy and Russia and all kinds of places in the World Showcase. The ride inside the Epcot ball was fun. Katie, Papa, mom and I went on the ride called “Mission Space” where you have to land your spaceship on Mars. It felt so real! It sucked me to the seat like a vacuum as we left Earth. We could move our heads or talk. Katie was the pilot and I was the communications manager, everyone had their own jobs on the spaceship. We got there in one piece and came back to Earth with a good report. When the ride was over my mom had to explain to Katie that we didn’t really go to Mars and we we’re just spinning extremely fast. Ever since then I go on every spinning ride when I go to amusement parks. At the Animal Kingdom we took a safari and saw all of the African animals in the wild. There were giraffes, zebras, hippos and even lions. I was afraid because there wasn’t anything keeping the animals from us, it was just open land. At Hollywood Studios we got to see Indiana Jones Live Stunt Spectacular. They were blowing up cars and running around the stage. I could feel the hot fire in my face, even in the audience. There were so many other rides I went on at Disney World, but I just can’t remember them all. This trip taught me to never let go of your childhood because you only have it once. Also, to live every second of your life with happiness. That’s why I cherish the memories I have from Disney World and it is my most memorable experience. That's the end. I got a B on it, so if anyone has any suggestions on hoe to revise it, that'd be cool (^-^) THANK YOU
Anyone upset about WrestleMania 28 not in Toronto? I am extremely upset, WWE hinted at it all year and then suddenly change their minds? It was already in Florida too many times! It's been in Canada one time! and it was 10 years ago! They wanted to induct Rock into the HOF because it was 10 years since he faced Taker in Toronto at Mania, I'll bet when they asked him he said "Canada, bbbrrrrr no way Jabroni too cold, and the rock is a big movie star I'm not flying ALL THE WAY TO CANADA! I'm too much of a busy hollywood star now to do that, the only way I'll do it is if you induct me in my home" This would have been my first WrestleMania. The front row tickets are already $4000 dollars each! Plus all the other WrestleMania stuff that weekend and fun stuff, plus Raw and HOF the next night, how can I afford to fly around the world and book a hotel for a week? Its ridiculas, I'm pretty bummed and angry at Vince, does he even care what Canada has contributed to wrestling? It was in florida like 10000 times! RRRR, anyone else???????
Should I complain to DISNEY WORLD? Just came back from a vacation 5 night 6 days at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. I stayed at a Disney Resort and had 5 day tickets. Computers were down the day we arrived so we had to pick up our tickets at the park. (Problem # 1) We couldn't get our "Key to the World" cards since computers were down. Thus, we couldn't get our dining plan either. We had to pay for our food, save our receipts and then get reimbursed from Disney when the computers were back up. (Problem # 2) I lost a receipt and had to spend an hour of vacation looking for it. I went to pick up my "key to the world" cards and get reimbursed for the food I bought. I got to the hotel lobby, they had my key cards waiting on me in an envelope and then attempted to refund me. The girl didn't know how to issue the refund and was having problems. Her supervisor was being rude to her and left her to fend for herself. (Problem # 3) It took almost an hour for them to issue the refund when it should have only taken 15 minutes. This issue caused me to not have time to take the kids swimming (as I had promised them) before dinner reservations. The next day we visited Animal Kingdom using our new key cards. (Problem # 4)One of the cards didn't have any tickets on it for entry to the park. We looked and realized they printed a card for my infant son instead of my 5-year-old son. We were directed to Guest Relations to resolve this problem. After standing in the long baggage check lines and turnstile lines twice and Guest Relations line once, almost 2 hours passed before we got inside the park. (Problem # 5) The next day we went to Hollywood Studios. We went to see Mickey Mouse clubhouse puppet show. After standing in line 45 minutes we finally got into the show. My 2 y/o and 5 y/o were really enjoying the show for the 2 minutes it was playing. They had technical difficulties and directed us OUT of the show. Then told us we could stand in line again to see a later show and there was already another line formed outside! (Problem # 6) We had reservations for over a month to eat at 50's Prime Time Diner. We showed up for our reservation 10 minutes early and was told to come back at the exact time of reservation because they were busy today. I came back in 10 minutes and THE RESTAURANT WAS CLOSED for the day! They had a "problem" in the kitchen. We were directed to eat at Hollywood and Vine and had terrible service. I paid a total of $2235.00 for my trip. I feel like if I pay full price, I should get full price service. I ran into a lot of problems and issues that cost my time and experiences I was looking forward to for months. Should I complain and ask for some sort of refund?
How to convince my dad? So, I live in Wisconsin and my friend who is also a big fan of Hollywood Undead and I want to meet up and go to a concert or a CD signing. And honestly, she really deserves it as she's treated like garbage from her own family. She lives in Massachusetts, and where we want to go is in Vermont. I'm prepared to pay for my own round-trip plane ticket and my own hotel room, but I can't get a hotel because I'm not 18 and well, that's pretty much the only reason. So my dad really owes me this; he lets my stepmom take her kids on vacation to cool places like Florida, the Mall of America, etc. and never takes me anywhere. So he owes me this, and it's just ONE day... Basically, how do I convince him to come with me?
Which Disneyland/world is the most fun? I'm from Wellington, New Zealand, and my family and I are going on a trip to Disneyworld in 3 months and which were wondering which one was the most fun.

In what should have been a minor point, the top rope broke at one point during the match. The Rockers defended the titles for a week after that, but then Neidhart was re-hired by the WWF, and Vince McMahon decided that the title change never actually happened, in one of the goofier decisions of the 90s, and one of many to affect the careers of Shawn and Bret. As an explanation, a story was sent to Pro Wrestling Illustrated about the rope break causing an "unfair working environment" for both teams, and hence the title reign was annulled. This was simply to cover up for the fact that they reported the title change as fact a week prior and needed a reason to no longer report it as such.
