Four of us had lunch here today and we all thought the food was pretty good. I ordered the seafood mix which comes with some fried shrimp, fried mahi mahi, and teriyaki chicken along with rice and macaroni salad. All of it was tasty if not exactly exciting. I think the fish was the best item - very tender and juicy even though it was fried. One question I have is how did macaroni salad become associated with Hawaiian food. Lived in Hawaii for about 11 years and I don't recall anything about macaroni salad - maybe its just my memory playing tricks on me. My other companions ordered chicken teriyaki and kalbi ribs. The kalbi ribs were good - yea I tasted one - but you only get three with the meal. All of the food is served in takeout boxes or plates. The restaurant looked clean and the workers were friendly and helpful. If you are looking for inexpensive Hawaiian style food this place is a good bet. ” zen_tricky (112) reviews 11/8/2005 Ono Hawaiian BBQ Cuisine: Hawaiian Barbecue Outer Sunset “ two words-plate lunch.ironic replacement for jenny craigs at albertsons plaza. if you like hawaiin fastfood this is the real deal ” zen_tricky (112) reviews 11/8/2005 Ono Hawaiian BBQ Cuisine: Hawaiian Barbecue Outer Sunset “ two words-plate lunch.ironic replacement for jenny craigs at albertsons plaza. if you like hawaiin fastfood this is the real deal ” dmz (27) reviews 11/2/2005 Ono Hawaiian BBQ Cuisine: Hawaiian Barbecue Outer Sunset “ If you're looking for cheap eats, then check this place out. Ono Hawaiian BBQ offers island favorites like chicken katsu, BBQ ribs, Spam moco, loco moco, etc. It's not BBQ in the traditional sense; it's more like Japanese teriyaki grilling. Don't get me wrong; it's still good. They offer generous portions for about $6-7 per person. When this place first opened, it was 45 minutes to an hour wait for your order. But the crowds have died down as the initial hype subsides and similar places begin to spring up in the Bay Area. Indoor seating could be a little tight with all the people in line; but they offer outdoor seating too. I recommend just grabbing take-out and having a nice picnic somewhere. ” lady chan (133) reviews 9/27/2005 Ono Hawaiian BBQ Cuisine: Hawaiian Barbecue Outer Sunset “ What a treat this place is for anyone who has spent some time in the islands...plate lunches at their best {and most caloric}the mixed combo had shrimp, mahi mahi and chicken on 2 big scoops of rice and accompanied with ...of course macaroni salad...You can help yourself to Katsu {spicy} and teriyaki sauce..the noodle soup was huge as was the salad but the salad was mostly iceberg lettuce.. we ate some of it at the outside tables in the plaza there, it was a really warm day {for a change}less than $20.00 for fast filing and fun meal..felt like we were eating a few memories with that feast. ” Rating: Positive Neutral Negative Reviewing tips below Review: First you must login to place a review Your comments contains 0 characters (1000) chars max You need to login to leave a review, login to the right or click the link below to sign-up now Review tips: Your reviews help others decide where to eat, please write as if you're telling a friend about this restaurant Please write fairly about the restaurant (don't include personal information about the owner or establishment).

Current commentary is now posted on the above blog Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. ----Lord Acton Power kills; absolute power kills absolutely. ----This Web Site Introduction It is true that democratic freedom is an engine of national and individual wealth and prosperity. Hardly known, however, is that freedom also saves millions of lives from famine, disease, war, collective violence, and democide (genocide and mass murder). That is, the more freedom, the greater the human security and the less the violence. Conversely, the more power governments have, the more human insecurity and violence. In short: to our realization that power impoverishes we must also add that power kills. Through theoretical analysis, historical case studies, empirical data, and quantitative analyses, this web site shows that: uote Freedom is a basic human right recognized by the United Nations and international treaties, and is the heart of social justice. Freedom is an engine of economic and human development, and scientific and technological advancement. Freedom ameliorates the problem of mass poverty. Free people do not suffer from and never have had famines, and by theory, should not. Freedom is therefore a solution to hunger and famine. Free people have the least internal violence, turmoil, and political instability. Free people have virtually no government genocide and mass murder, and for good theoretical reasons. Freedom is therefore a solution to genocide and mass murder; the only practical means of making sure that "Never again!" Free people do not make war on each other, and the greater the freedom within two nations, the less violence between them. Freedom is a method of nonviolence--the most peaceful nations are those whose people are free. The purpose of this web site, then, is to make as widely available as possible the theories, work, results, and data that empirically and historically, quantitatively and qualitatively, support these conclusions about freedom. This is to invite their use, replication, and critical evaluation, and thereby to advance our knowledge of and confidence in freedom--in liberal democracy. It is to foster freedom. Pray tell, my brother, Why do dictators kill and make war? Is it for glory; for things, for beliefs, for hatred, for power? Yes, but more, because they can. IMPORTANT NOTE: Among all the democide estimates appearing on this website,some have been revised upward. I have changed that for Mao's famine, 1958-1962, from zero to 38,000,000. And thus I have had to change the overall democide for the PRC (1928-1987) from 38,702,000 to 76,702,000. Details here. I have changed my estimate for colonial democide from 870,000 to an additional 50,000,000. Details here . Thus, the new world total: old total 1900-1999 = 174,000,000.New World total = 174,000,000 + 38,000,000 (new for China) + 50,000 (new for Colonies) = 262,000,000. Just to give perspective on this incredible murder by government, if all these bodies were laid head to toe, with the average height being 5', then they would circle the earth ten times. Also, this democide murdered 6 times more people than died in combat in all the foreign and internal wars of the century. Finally, given popular estimates of the dead in a major nuclear war, this total democide is as though such a war did occur, but with its dead spread over a century.

Molokai plantation since 1984.

Molokai Coffee Plantation - Offering 100% Molokai Coffee Login Molokai Coffee Company Inc. -- MolokaiCoffee Company has been producing Estate grown gourmet quality coffee atthe Molokai plantation since 1984. In addition to offering our freshroasted Estate Line of coffees and merchandise, this site will alsoprovide useful information about our company, our coffee, and thebeautiful island of Moloka'i. So feel free to look around and be sure tosend us a note if you have any questions. Thank you for visiting MolokaiCoffee on the Internet! Aloha, The Molokai Coffee Team Molokai, Hawaii is the most traditionally Hawaiian of all the Islands: "A place where you won't find a single traffic light, and not a single building taller than a coconut tree." During the last century, as the other islands in Hawaii slowly moved away from a lifestyle dedicated to the resources of the land and the sea, Molokai somehow escaped trends toward new development, and remains almost untouched, as it was decades ago. Molokai is a place where time really seems to stand still, or at least moves more slowly. It is a place where the people often still fish, hunt, farm, and live together in a tight knit community of true Aloha. From the highest sea cliffs in the world to the longest white sand beaches in Hawaii, its natural beauty remains pristine. These unique island values and characteristics make Molokai special, and the Molokai Coffee Company unlike any other. Our approach to coffee production here on Molokai is expressed in the following motto: A modern approach following traditional values . Our dedicated Molokai employees, 72% having Native Hawaiian ancestry, are a highly specialized group, frequently advised by horticultural experts from the University of Hawaii. While modern science and cutting edge equipment ensure unsurpassed quality and efficiency, the art and tradition of Molokai farming is very much a necessary part of our unique Estate Plantation. Several in our team personally planted the original Molokai coffee seedlings over 15 years ago, and many of them are also farmers at home. This brings not only unique and valuable knowledge of Molokai soil, weather patterns, etc., but also a familiarity with each sub-field, in some cases each coffee tree! It is this combination of art and science, not only applied to farming, but to a series of meticulous steps in the processing and roasting stages, that brings you that splendid cup of Molokai coffee like none other in the world. Enjoy! Order by Phone: 1-800-709-BEAN 2002 - 2006 Molokai Coffee Company Inc. * 99-910 Iwaena Street * Aiea, HI 96701 USA Phone: 808.487.9600 * info@molokaicoffee.com

Mark Twain declared Hawaii to be 'the loveliest fleet of islands that lies anchored in any ocean', and not even thirty years of mass tourism have managed to prove him wrong. Hawaii is a destination that can be either relaxing or filled with physical activity. Lounge by the pool of a world-class resort drinking the local fruit drinks, or explore the many wonders of all the Hawaiian Islands. Snorkel in an ocean of total clarity. Put your face to the breeze on a charter sail. If a physical vacation is what you seek, the surfing, diving, windsurfing and hiking doesn't get any better than in Hawaii. Explore the many wonders of the Polynesian culture of Hawaii. Dance the hula and enjoy succulent Island fare at an authentic luau. Listen to the beautiful tradition Hawaiian music, while sipping Mai Tais under a palm tree. It's easy to get lost in this wonderful tropical paradise.

Monthly average temperatures range from a high of 87.1 Fahrenheit and lows of 65.3 Fahrenheit. June through October is the hottest period, while rainfall is heaviest between December and March - neither extreme is worth worrying over. Hotel prices in Hawaii are lowest between April and mid-December. Weddings in Hawaii In Hawaii, romance is the very essence of life. From the sweet scents of night-blooming jasmine, to breath-taking sunsets, Hawaii is a perfect destination for your wedding and/or honeymoon vacation. Hawaii is world renown to be the number one destination for lovers. Weddings in Hawaii are frequently held outdoors on the beach, in a tropical garden, or even on a boat sailing off into the sunset. All the beaches in Hawaii are public, and both beaches and public parks are free to use for wedding ceremonies. However, don't expect to have a popular spot all to yourself. Most beaches and parks in Hawaii are not secluded and private. Hawaii has a wide range of musical styles and instruments. The slack key (a regional guitar style), the ukulele and steel guitar are popular musical instruments. The popular "Hawaiian Wedding Song" is usually sung at most wedding ceremonies. Traditional Hawaiian wedding attire consists of the bride wearing a long, white formal version of the muumuu called a 'holoku'. Instead of a veil, a woven garland of island flowers, 'haku lei', is worn around the head. The groom on the other hand, usually wears long sleeve white shirt and white pants a long red, or colored sash, is worn wrapped about his waist. A lei of maile and ilima flowers adorn his neck. Of course, chose whatever wedding style fits both your tastes. In Hawaii couples have gotten married wearing their swimsuits. Hawaii reveals romance, idyllic beaches and gorgeous landscapes. If the honeymoon wasn't invented here, it should have been. Hawaii and romance are practically synonymous. Wedding parties may qualify for a group travel discount. Imagine offering a romantic wedding for your guest, while they vacation in Mexico. Visit www.beverlyclarktravel.com for group specials to Mexico. Activities and Things to See in Hawaii Surfing is the king of sports, and Hawaii is deservedly renowned for its great waves. Beginners can learn the basics at Waikiki, and then watch the professionals on Oahu's North Shore. Maui has become a windsurfing mecca, with the top international windsurfers heading for Hookipa Beach. Diving is good year-round and there are plenty of underwater caves, canyons, lava tubes, vertical walls and sunken ships to explore. Lanai, the sunken volcanic crater of Molokini, and Oahu and Kauai's northern coasts are all great diving areas. The Big Island's Kona Coast offers some of the world's best deep-sea fishing for Pacific blue marlin, yellow fin tuna and spearfish. And for those who want to keep their feet on solid ground, hiking opportunities include trails in the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, Haleakala National Park and Hawaii's premier hike along Kauai's Na Pali Coast. The Hawaiian Islands Oahu Places worth visiting on Oahu: Waikiki Beach Pearl Harbor North shore Beaches Hanauma Bay Nuuanu Pali Lookout Oahu, nicknamed 'The Gathering Place', is the most populous, most developed and most well known of the Hawaiian Islands. Oahu throbs with energy and elegance. The names and images most commonly conjured up by the mention of Hawaii are all here: Honolulu, Waikiki, Pearl Harbor, Pipeline and Sunset Beach. The state capital, Honolulu, is the major exit/entry point for travelers. For a more back to nature approach, visit the lush windward side. Eons of wind and weather erosion have carved these ranges' sculptured, jagged peaks, deep valleys, sheer green cliffs, and dynamic vistas. At the base of these mountains more than 50 beach parks lie draped like a beautiful lei, each known for a different activity, be it snorkeling, surfing, swimming, or sunbathing. Waikiki continues to serve as home base for endless possibilities for day trips full of cultural and scenic eco-adventures. Visitors can stroll along a new and improved Kuhio Beach and find wider beach expanses and extensive services, and meander along the historic Waikiki walking trail. With Waikiki leading the way, Oahu maintains its status as an exciting destination, with more things to see, more places to eat, and more things to do than on all the other Hawaiian Islands combined. Looking For the Best Hawaii Honeymoon Location or Wedding Destination? To find your Romantic Honeymoon Getaway on Oahu, Hawaii, we recommend: Aston Waikiki Beach Hotel Aston Waikiki Beach Tower Big Island (Hawaii) The island of Hawaii, commonly called the Big Island, is nearly twice the size of all the other Hawaiian Islands combined. Geographically it's the most diverse island of the archipelago, with deserts, rainforests, the world's most active volcano, and surprisingly, snow-capped mountains. Mauna Kea, which measures 32,000 ft beneath the ocean's surface to its 13,796-ft peak, is the world's tallest mountain. The mountains create a huge barrier that blocks the north-easterly trade winds and makes the leeward, western side of the island the driest region in the archipelago. This coast, known as the Kona-Kohala Coast, has the best beaches and water conditions. The windward, eastern coast, with the island's major city, Hilo, is predominantly rugged, with pounding surf, plenty of rain, tropical rainforests, deep ravines and majestic waterfalls. So much rain falls near Hilo, the island's major city, that a botanical garden at Onomea Bay provides umbrellas to enter its tropical jungle. Kona, Waikoloa and Hilo are the main centers for accommodation and restaurants.

To find your Romantic Honeymoon Getaway on the Big Island, Hawaii, we recommend: Aston Waikoloa Colony Villas Fairmont Orchid Kauai If you're looking for lush scenery, Kauai, known as 'The Garden Island', is a great choice. Kauai's central volcanic peak, Mt Waialeale, is allegedly the wettest place on earth. Many movies were filmed on Kauai, such as South Pacific, Raiders of the Lost Ark and Jurassic Park. Most of the island's interior is mountainous forest reserve, which offers great hiking; the southern and western coasts are dry, sunny and fringed with beautiful beaches. Kauai's capital is Lihu'e, the island's commercial center. Its collection of businesses -- a pair of banks, a library, a school, a museum, some family-run restaurants, and hotels -- is small enough to keep the pace unhurried. North of Lihu'e the climate turns cooler and wetter, and everything sparkles green. In Wailua and Kapa'a, resort complexes huddle along a picturesque shoreline called the Royal Coconut Coast for its abundance of palms. As you head farther north to Anahola, Kilauea, Princeville, and Hanalei, vines and flowers flourish. On the south coast the sunny beaches and clear skies around Po'ipu have spawned a crop of condos and hotels. The area has also come into its own as a golf destination, and several fine restaurants have found a home here as well. Accommodation and eateries can be found in the small towns of Lihue, Kapaa, Princeville and Poipu. Worth visiting on Kauai: Na Pali Coast Waimea Canyon - the 'Grand Canyon of the Pacific' Lumahai Beach Polihale Beach Wailua River Looking For the Best Hawaii Honeymoon Location or Wedding Destination? To find your Romantic Honeymoon Getaway on Kauai, Hawaii, we recommend: Aston at Poipu Kai Aston Islander on the Beach Waimea Plantation Cottages Maui Maui is known as 'The Valley Island'. The island is comprised of two large extinct volcanoes (Haleakala and Puu Kukui) divided by a central valley. It's the second-largest of the Hawaiian Islands and the most developed of the Neighbor Islands. It's renowned for its abundant supply of beautiful, romantic beaches and some of the world's best windsurfing and surfing spots. The uplands of Maui are comprised of eucalyptus groves and cattle ranches. Check out the historical town of Makawao, with its fine restaurants and cowboy flavor buildings. The east coast of Maui is where you'll find the lush, tropical rainforests. Looking for nightlife on your honeymoon vacation? Then visit Lahaina and Kaanapali Beach. For a more relaxing atmosphere take a slow, dramatic rain-forest drive to the sleepy town of Hana. Worth visiting on Maui: Haleakala Crater Iao Needle Lahaina Kaanapali Beach Hana Highway Polipoli Spring State Recreation Area Looking For the Best Hawaii Honeymoon Location or Wedding Destination? To find your Romantic Honeymoon Getaway on Maui, Hawaii, we recommend: Adventure in Paradise Aston Kaanapali Shores Fairmont Kea Lani Maui Maui Kaanapali Villas The Whaler on Kaanapali Beach Lanai Lanai, known as the 'Pineapple Island', is a sleepy, pineapple-plantation island, which 98% of the island is owned by Dole Corporation. Lanai's old pineapple fields have been transformed into two exquisite resorts-one in the mountains and one by the sea. Lanai is home to many natural wonders. To the northwest lies the Garden of the Gods, where rocks and boulders are scattered across a crimson landscape. Adjacent is a trail leading through the Kanepu'u Preserve, a dryland forest with some 48 native species, including the endangered Hawaiian gardenia. On the southern tip is Hulopo'e Bay, a marine conservation area prized by divers and snorkelers for its vivid tropical reef fish and crystal clear waters. Experience hiking or driving to the summit of Lana'ihale, a 3,370-ft-high windswept perch in the eastern reaches, you'll find a splendid view of nearly every Hawaiian island.

To find your Romantic Getaway on the Lanai, Hawaii, click here. Molokai Molokai is often called "The Friendly Island", because of the aloha spirit that flourishes there. Molokai is one of the least visited of all the Hawaiian Islands...which makes it so special. Molokai is a quiet, slow-paced retreat that epitomizes the South Seas paradise that first sparked tourist interest. With a population of roughly 7,000 (compared to Oahu's nearly 1 million), it has the highest percentage of residents with Hawaiian blood - roughly 50%. The island opens its heart to you along its shimmering reef and spectacular sea cliffs.
