Kalaupapa is on the north shore of Moloka'i, 2000 feet Sea cliffs that stretch to almost 4,000 feet, the kept the Kalaupapa residents from escaping this cruel and barren place. Then Father Damien arrived in Kalaupapa, Moloka'i from The Big Island of Hawaii, where he helped the people of Kalaupapa, get the respect they deserved. Kalaupapa grew to support the patients was formed by a central crater now full of water and its bottom is known to be a least 800 feet. While this area is generally referred to as Kalaupapa, it is in fact, Makanalua Peninsula which is divided into three districts: The Kalawao district on the eastern edge; Kalaupapa and the settlement of Kalaupapa to the west; with Makanalua in the center. Kalaupapa's reputation as a leprosy colony is well-known throughout the world. Hansen's disease, the proper term for leprosy, is believed to have originated in China and spread to Hawaii. The first documented case of leprosy in Hawaii occurred in 1848. Its rapid spread and unknown cure precipitated the urgent need for complete and total isolation. Surrounded on three sides by the Pacific ocean and cut off from the rest of Moloka'i by 1700-foot fortress like sea cliffs. The area was void of all amenities. No buildings, shelters nor potable water were available. The first arrivals dwelled in rock enclosures, caves, and in the most rudimentary shacks built of sticks and dried leaves. In 1873, when Father Damien entered the settlement of Molokai at age 33, he made a decision to set aside his fear of contagion. He embraced the lepers, cleaned and bandaged their wounds, and the Hawaiians knew his concern and love for them was unprecedented. Father Damien was the only one to bring the leprosy patients the succor they so greatly needed. He not only administered the consolations of religion, but also rendered them with as much medical and bodily comforts that were within his power. He dressed their ulcers, helped them erect their dwellings, dug their graves, and made their coffins. In December 1884, Father Damien noticed severe blisters on his feet without the presence of pain. After twelve years of service (1885), he discovered that he had symptoms of the disease. Nevertheless, he continued with his work. As death approached, the disease invaded his windpipe and progressed to such an extent that he could only sleep but for a few hours. His voice was reduced to a whisper. Leprosy was in his throat, lungs, stomach, and intestines. As the end drew near, he made his confessions to his own Congregation on March 30, 1889 and two weeks later, on April 15,1889, Father Damien died. It was Holy Week. Some weeks before, D,mien had said that the Lord wanted him to spend Easter in heaven. With the advent of sulfone drugs in the 1940s, the disease was put in remission and the sufferers are no longer so called contagious (we have since found out that Leprosy was never contagious). The fewer than 40 former patients remaining on the peninsula are free to travel or relocate elsewhere, but most have chosen to remain where they have lived for so long.

I’m moving all of my content from the content management system that I’ve been using to maintain NahenaheNet for the past 6 years, Manila , to this new WordPress system. There are a lot of things about Manila that I will miss, and some things that WordPress can do better. It was a tough decision, but necessary and timely for other reasons.

Current update of the eruption of Kilauea Volcano, Hawai`i `o Eruption Summary Hazards History Panorama Images Eruption Update and Image Archive | deformation | images | maps | Pu`u `O`o camera | 0555 January 14[Note: Your observer will be way south of the border, almost astraddle the equator, for the next two weeks. The next regularly scheduled morning update will be on Monday, January 30. Updates may occur at irregular intervals in the interim.]The Full Wolf Moon is the brightest object visible this morning, for lava on Pulama pali is confined to small patches and rivulets in the west string of breakouts. The breakouts reache from about the 1400-foot elevation down to about the 900-foot elevation, with small lava patches down to about 300 feet, as noted by yesterday's field workers. Glow comes from just above the top of the pali, probably at about the 1900-foot elevation, and testifies to surface lava there, too. Yesterday's observers noted some lava along the far east side of the PKK flow just outside the national park at about the 200-foot elevation 3.8 km from the end of the Kalapana access road.Moderate glow comes from East Lae`apuki this morning. Lava rose from cracks that cut the front half of the delta on Thursday and added perhaps as much as 80 m to the west side of the delta. The observers estimated that at least a third of the delta is new or resurfaced by lava. Lava enters the ocean at numerous spots along most of the front of the delta, so that the laze plume is spread almost continuously along the water's edge. The delta is now about 500 m long (parallel to shore) but still only 140 m wide. The crater of Pu`u `O`o is badly socked in this morning, but glimpses appear of all vents except Beehive. Conditions were similar yesterday, and the field observers were skunked. They did witness, however, a breakout from the PKK tube at the base of the flank shield. It was not active at 0900, was going strong at ~1030, and was over by 1130. The breakout came from a shatter ring immediately down-tube from the bend in the tube at the base of the flank shield. This shatter ring may be the source for all the breakouts from the upper tube that have occurred since mid-December. The shatter ring is 60 m x 75 m across, and its southwest side is a 3-4-m-high, nearly vertical rubble wall. This area was very noisy, with cracking and scraping and lots of rock falling off, both during and after the breakout. Background volcanic tremor is about normal at Kilauea's summit this morning. Volcanic tremor is at a moderate level at Pu`u `O`o.Inflation at Kilauea's summit continued for the past 24 hours and has now recovered the 5.2 microradians lost during the deflation of January 9-10. In contrast, Pu`u `O`o is having a rocky, slow deflation that started midday January 12 and by this writing has lost almost 1 microradian.

Looking east across lava delta at East Lae`apuki. Note the cracks cutting the outer part of the delta. The cracks have formed in the last week or two as the delta has grown larger and become more unstable. Similar cracks cut the delta before its wholesale collapse on November 28, 2005. Steam (laze) rises at points where lava is entering the water. 0910. Right . Pretty Petunia skylight in roof of PKK lava tube, upper part of PKK flow. View looks downstream.

Current Deformation Map of selected deformation stations Electronic Tiltmeter Pu`u `O`o experienced bumpy tilt on January 7, 8, and early January 9; the bumps average out to flat tilt. Uwekahuna inflated slightly until noon January 7, deflated in the afternoon, inflated until early January 8, and then flattened and stayed flat for most of the day. It then started to inflated before midnight and continued up until 2141 January 9. Then Uwekahuna started a rapid, large deflation that finally ended at 2345 January 10 after a loss of 5.2 microradians. Pu`u `O`o inflated during January 8, following Uwekahuna, but it did not plummet when the summit started to deflate, instead maintaining flat to gently declining tilt throughout January 10 and into the 11th. Kilauea's summit began to inflate steeply at 2345 January 10, ending the deflation. The inflation continued through January 11-12-13 and into January 14 and had recovered all the tilt lost by the January 9-10 deflation by early January 14. Pu`u `O`o had pretty flat tilt until about noon January 11 and then began a slow inflation that continued until late morning January 12. The tilt that more or less stabilized before dropping a little that night and through January 13 into January 14, though the deflation was very irregular. This graph shows the radial tilt at Uwekahuna (UWE), on the northwest rim of Kilauea's caldera, and at Pu`u `O`o cone (POC), on the northwest flank of the active vent along the east rift zone, as recorded by continuously operating electronic tiltmeters. Positive changes indicate inflation of the magma storage areas beneath the caldera or Pu`u `O`o. Data are shown for a one-week period. A long-term trend of constant-rate, large deflation at Pu`u `O`o used to be removed for scale reasons, but starting on May 24, 2002, the tilt is shown as recorded, including the long-term deflation. The graph is refreshed at the same time as the eruption update at the top of this page, usually daily. The Y-axis is in microradians, an angular measure in parts per million; for example, one microradian represents the tilt of a 1-km-long bar, one end of which is lifted up or down 1 mm. Global Positioning System (GPS) Two years of data are shown in the plot. Between June 2003 and July 2004 the lengthening between the two stations was generally at a gradually increasing rate. The distance then became stable for nearly a month, but then extension resumed at a slightly slower rate than before the brief stable period. Extension picked up significantly in December 2004 and continued to lengthen rapidly until late February 2005. Then the line rather abruptly started to contract. The contraction ended in mid-March 2005, and the line remained steady until early May, when it began to lengthen once more. The lengthening continued until early July 2005, when the distance stabilized, coincident with a flattening of the tilt at Uwekahuna. Extension then resumed at a quickened rate in late July-early August 2005 and continued to late September. Then the rate of lengthening sharply reduced and perhaps even became zero for a time. Then, in November 2005, the line began to lengthen once more, only to stabilize once more at the end of the year. This graph shows the change in distance between two Global Positioning System (GPS) stations located on opposite ides of Kilauea's caldera. A rapid increase in distance can be interpreted as inflation of the summit magma reservoir. The graph is refreshed at the same time as the eruption update at the top of this page, usually daily. For more information on how electronic tiltmeters and GPS receivers help monitor the deformation of Kilauea and Mauna Loa volcanoes, see a summary of the inflation-deflation of magma chambers . Maps of lava-flow field, Kilauea Volcano Map of flows from Pu`u `O`o: 19 December 2005 Map shows lava flows erupted during 1983-present activity of Pu`u `O`o and Kupaianaha ( see large map ). Yellow, brown, and red colors indicate lava flows erupted from October 2003 to December 16, 2005. Yellow indicates the currently active Kuhio (PKK) flow, active most of the time from March 20, 2004 to the present. The east and west arms of the PKK flow, once widely separated, began to merge and overlap on the coastal flat in March 2005. The east arm feeds the East Lae`apuki ocean entry. Activity on the west arm declined through mid-August, and the last surface flow on that arm was observed on August 21. The recent (November-December 2005) breakouts on Pulama pali described as "eastern" and "western" are all on the east arm of the PKK flow. The brown shade denotes Martin Luther King (MLK ) flows, which first erupted in January 2004 from flank vents on the south slope of Pu`u `O`o. Since then, several more vents have formed in the MLK area and continue to erupt intermittently. Red indicates the Mother's Day and Banana flows, last active in September 2004. Short flows from the crater, West Gap, and Puka Nui vents are also shown in red. In recent months, only the Puka Nui vent has produced infrequent, small flows. Map of Pu`u `O`o and vicinity: 19 December 2005 Map shows vents, lava flows, and other features near Pu`u `O`o frequently referred to in updates ( see large map ). These features can change quickly, but this map should help those viewers lost in the terminology. The vents, lava tubes, and flows active in 2005 include the numbered vents in the crater, the MLK vent complex and associated flows, the Puka Nui vent, and the upper Kuhio (PKK) tube, which feeds the lava flows eventually reaching the ocean. Eruption-viewing opportunities change constantly, so refer to this page often. Those readers planning a visit to Kilauea or Mauna Loa volcanoes can get much useful information from Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park .

Even though TheBus circles the island for a ridiculously low fare, you won't have access to all the side roads and back roads along the way. The cost of renting a car is so low, especially considering all the money you've already spent to get here, it makes no sense to not rent a car for at least a day. That's why we call our guides Driving & Discovering Hawaii books! Our Circle Island Driving Map shows you those places and features that we feel should not be missed if you only have one day to explore... although there are actually many more choices than what we have included here. These others can be found in great detail, with explicit driving instructions, In our Driving & Discovering Hawaii: OAHU guidebook.
