Hawaii don't follow daylight saving time, like New York, thus the difference is 6 hours in winter and 5 in summer. Just to be sure: *Starting time at UTC-10: 12:01 am September 1 in Hawaii = 6:01 am in NYC = 2012-09-01T10:00 UTC *Closing time at UTC-10: 12:01 am October 1 in Hawaii = 6:01 am in NYC = 2012-10-01T10:00 UTC Right?
