Part One Oh wow. The class with Nancy Lee Chong was fantastic! I was a great enabler and encouraged my friends Susie and Julie to take the plunge too. The class was held at A Common Thread quilt store in Lake Oswego, a wonderful place filled with absolutely wonderful fabrics. Nancy is an awesome teacher! She’s friendly, informative and extremely knowledgeable. She made learning fun, and had all kinds of tip and techniques to show us, so that by the end of the weekend we all had a working knowledge of how to begin our quilts. When we first got there we were a little intimidated by her amazing quilts, as she’d brought a number of gorgeous ones that she’d finished over the years. It was hard to believe that we’d be able to actually create something similar. Nancy’s use of colors and combinations of fabrics gave us a lot of inspiration and we could hardly wait to get started.

Air Hawaiian

Faleomavaega (AS00) - Washington, D.C.At Faleomavaegas Request, Hawaii Air National Guard to Bring American Samoas Troops Home on Sunday April 17, 2005 April 15, 2005 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE WASHINGTON, D.C. AT FALEOMAVAEGAS REQUEST, HAWAII AIR NATIONAL GUARD TO BRING AMERICAN SAMOA S TROOPS HOME ON SUNDAY APRIL 17, 2005 Congressman Faleomavaega announced today that at his insistence the Department of Defense has agreed to provide military transport to bring American Samoa s troops home. The troops will depart Hickam Air Force base on Sunday April 17, 2005 at 9:00am and arrive in American Samoa at 1pm . American Samoa s troops have been serving in Iraq for more than a year and returned to Hawaii three weeks ago. Only yesterday I learned that our troops have been stuck in Hawaii for three weeks after serving in Iraq for more than a year, the Congressman said. Like any soldier who has been away from his/her family for a year, our soldiers want to be reunited with their families. For this reason, I contact ed the military to determine why it has taken so long to get the paperwork done to release our soldiers and provide them airfare to American Samoa . Hawaiian Air flights have left every Monday and Friday for three weeks but, as a result of military delays, American Samoa s troops have not been on board. In order to make sure that our troops can be reunited with their families as soon as possible and also so that they can attend Flag Day celebrations, I asked the military to provide an aircraft to bring our soldiers home, Faleomavaega said. I am pleased to announce that the Hawaii Air National Guard answered my call and has agreed to provide a KC135 Tanker to fly our troops to American Samoa this Sunday. In a letter dated April 15, 2005 , the Honorable Henry Hyde, Chairman of the House Committee on International Relations, authorized me to escort our troops home and in separate correspondence the Department of Defense approved the request. At this time, I want to thank the crew which has been assigned to fly us including Lt Col Willie Benton, Aircraft Commander; 1Lt Ryan Iwasaki, Co-Pilot; SSgt Jamie Oliveros, Room Operator; SSgt Matt Lewis, Pax Handler; CMSgt Dennis Mishima, Crew Chief; TSgt Robert Tokuda, Crew Chief; SSgt Robert Rhoades, Avionics Specialist. I also want to thank Mr. Jim Townsend of the Hawaii Air National Guard for organizing all of this. The soldiers and their families appreciate this very much. Above all, I want to thank American Samoa s troops for their service to our country. As a Vietnam Veteran, I am proud of our soldiers for completing their mission and I am honored to escort them home, the Congressman concluded.

Hawaii Volcano

USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) Eruption Update Eruption Summary Hazards History Panorama Images Current Activity Hazards History Current Eqs Map Felt EQs Destructive EQs Seismicity Hazards, Zoning Instrumentation Hualalai Haleakala Lo`ihi Ocean Entry Lava Zones Types History of HVO Volunteer program Location Kilauea: an explosive volcano in Hawai`i A well-known dictum in geology is "the present is the key to the past." Often, however, the past itself is a key: to the future. The past is a better such key, in fact, than is the present. It is improbable that everything that can happen is happening today. Something brand new may start, of course, but something that has happened in the past is more likely to occur again, regardless of what's going on today. It is in this light that a new feature story presents the outlines of Kilauea's explosive past. Kilauea is not exploding now, but it has done so in a small way in the recent past and in a big way during the past hundreds to thousands of years. If we are to know the whole gamut of what Kilauea can do, it behooves us to examine its past as carefully as possible. Explosions can be hazardous to both people on the ground and traveling in jet airliners. The more we know about Kilauea's explosions, the better chance we have of mitigating their risk to us. So turn the page and perhaps be surprised at the richness of Kilauea's explosive past. Archive of previous feature stories Photograph by C.
