Aloha, Streets of Honolulu Honolulu Is an Interesting City

Aloha, Streets of Honolulu Honolulu is an interesting city. It is the largest city in the state of Hawaii. It is also Hawaii’s major seaport. Its name comes from the Hawaiian language meaning “sheltered harbor.” From the source honolulu facts.co, “By area, Honolulu is the largest city in the world—if you’re talking city borders. According to Hawaii’s constitution, any island not named to a county, is considered part of Honolulu, making the city 1,500 miles long.” Within its city limits, Honolulu occupies over 60 square miles, with a density at nearly 6,000 people per square mile. The Aloha State’s capital (Cross roads of the Pacific and the Big Pineapple) is Honolulu. It is the 12th most populated state capital. Honolulu ranks 40th in population at approximately 1.4 million people in Hawaii. As of 2017, Honolulu’s population is 337,256, 3% native Hawaiians, 8% Native Hawaiian Pacific Islanders, 54% Asian, 17% white and remainder mixture of other races and ethnic groups. Weather in Honolulu averages between 50 and 85 degrees. In terms of its economy, Hawaii shipped $1.239 billion worth of goods around the globe during 2016. Highest value Hawaiian exports are helicopters, miscellaneous aircraft parts, petroleum oils, aromatic hydrocarbon mixtures, miscellaneous military equipment, civilian aircraft and scrap iron, according to United States Census Bureau data. Capital landmarks are Aloha Stadium, Pearl Harbor Pacific Valor Monument, Waikiki Beach, Punchbowl Crater (National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific) and Diamond Head. Hawaii’s flag is named Ka Hae Hawai’I (The flag of Hawaii). It was adopted on December 29, 1845 and is both a civil and state flag. The colors and symbolism: White for purity, innocence and peace; Blue for vigilance, perseverance and justice; the Union Jack represents Great Britain’s relationship as a protectorate and the stripes represent the eight‐inhabited islands of Hawaii Sources: http://honolulu.facts.co/honolulufunfactsforkids/funhonolulufacts.php, https://www.worldscapitalcities.com/capital‐facts‐for‐honolulu‐united‐states/, https://suburbanstats.org/population/hawaii/how‐many‐people‐live‐in‐honolulu, https://evols.library.manoa.hawaii.edu/bitstream/10524/505/2/JL22143.pdf, http://hawaiiflag.facts.co/hawaiistateflagof/hawaiiflag.php, https://www.history.com/topics/liliuokalani, and https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/honolulucountyhawaii/PST045216 acuri.net John R.

RESULTS, CONCLUSIONS) In the downtown Honolulu area, detailed site investigations are required prior to the design and construction of high-rise buildings and other engineering structures. Hence, over the years, numerous soil borings, environmental assessments, and groundwater measurements have been conducted. As a result, much data on the subsurface geology of downtown Honolulu exists, but it is spread out among individual consulting firms and various governmental agencies. The purpose ofthis study is to compile the existing data and interpret the subsurface geology, engineering geology, hydrogeology, and environmental problems within the downtown Honolulu area. This study commenced with collecting and interpreting data from 2,276 soil boring logs from consulting firms in Honolulu, along with data from the Groundwater Index database and environmental databases maintained by the State ofHawaii. The subsurface materials are classified into nine categories: fill, lagoonal (low-energy)deposits, alluvial deposits, coralline debris, coral ledges, cinders, tuff, basalt, and residual soil or weathered volcanics.

COMPARISON and CONTRAST OAHU Ruth Bugtong

COMPARISON AND CONTRAST OAHU Ruth Bugtong (1) Oahu: a small island southwest of the California coast with a diversity of people and their cultures. When someone mentions Hawaii, exotic images of jungles, muumuus, flower leis, and sunny beaches fill the mind. Oahu offers the tourist two basic options, depending on what activities he enjoys. On the southern side of the island, Honolulu, a sprawling city teeming with activity and excitement, is literally a tourist's paradise, complete with shopping malls, beaches, theaters, and sight-seeing tours. Oahu's north shore Laie, is known to the kamaainas (locals) as surfers' paradise. Here you will find challenging mountains to hike or climb, as well as deserted stretches of beach, excellent surfing conditions, and coral reefs, perfect for snorkeling or scuba diving. (2) Honolulu, with its glass and concrete buildings, offers a potpourri of sights and activities to keep a haole (newcomer) happy. Waikiki is one of the first places that tourists like to visit. The shops along Waikiki Boulevard, which runs parallel to the beach, sell anything from popsicles to puka shells. Bikini-clad women and bronzed, handsome men are common sights across the road at Waikiki Beach. In the water, cruise boats with gaily colored sails offer rides to passers-by. Outrigger canoe trips are also available if you would like to experience the ancient Hawaiian mode 13 of travel. (3) Spending the first day in Hawaii at the beach may not be a good idea since the sun is intense in the tropics. Instead, sign up for a sight-seeing tour of Oahu.

HĀNAU MA KA LOLO, FOR THE BENEFIT OF HER RACE: a portrait of EMMA KAʻILIKAPUOLONO METCALF BECKLEY NAKUINA A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAIʻI AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN HAWAIIAN STUDIES AUGUST 2012 By Jaime Uluwehi Hopkins Thesis Committee: Jonathan Kamakawiwoʻole Osorio, Chairperson Lilikalā Kameʻeleihiwa Wendell Kekailoa Perry DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated to Kanalu Young. When I was looking into getting a graduate degree, Kanalu was the graduate student advisor. He remembered me from my undergrad years, which at that point had been nine years earlier. He was open, inviting, and supportive of any idea I tossed at him. We had several more conversations after I joined the program, and every single one left me dizzy. I felt like I had just raced through two dozen different ideas streams in the span of ten minutes, and hoped that at some point I would recognize how many things I had just learned. I told him my thesis idea, and he went above and beyond to help. He also agreed to chair my committee. I was orignally going to write about Pana Oʻahu, the stories behind places on Oʻahu. Kanalu got the Pana Oʻahu (HWST 362) class put back on the schedule for the first time in a few years, and agreed to teach it with me as his assistant. The next summer, we started mapping out a whole new course stream of classes focusing on Pana Oʻahu. But that was his last summer.

O'ahu: the HEART of HAWAII Let’S Play

O'AHU: THE HEART OF HAWAII Let’s play. On the island of O'ahu, learn to ride the waves in Waikiki where surfing was born or catch a big-wave surf meet on O'ahu’s famed North Shore. Between sunrise and sunset, you’ll have hours to explore the hottest farm to table restaurants, browse the lat- est designer and local fashions, check out the urban art scene in Chinatown or stroll into Hawaii’s history at Iolani Palace. When the sun goes down, the “Heartbeat of Hawaii” awakens to a new beat, and it’s time to put on your dancing shoes. Your dream vacation is yours to cre- ate. Home to the majority of Hawaii’s population, the state capital of Hon- olulu and world famous Waikiki, O'ahu is often the first stop for visitors to Hawaii. Because this is such an active and vibrant island with so much variety, there’s no shortage of things to do here. Once you’ve checked in, you’ll want to experience all that O'ahu has to offer. Marvel at O'ahu’s spectacular natural wonders like Leahi (Diamond Head) and Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve. Take your first surf lesson in Waikiki then attend a luau at sunset and watch authentic hula. Explore Hawaii’s rich history and culture at the Iolani Palace, King Kamehameha Statue and Kawaiahao Church, all within a block of each other. Then indulge in a taste of Hawaii Regional Cuisine and the best of Hawaii’s nightlife. Or if all else fails, spend the day tanning on one of O'ahu’s beautiful beaches.
