Hawaii's Leilehua grad and UH-Hilo graduate Nick Mason did. And he did it in style. He finished #1, medalist, in McKinney, Texas at one of the overflow courses. That's how many guys tried their way through Q-School at $4,000 just to get your entry form in. More »

Stewards of South Maui

Rated 5.0 Stars

If you've ever driven around or flown over South Maui you're familiar with the vast, wind swept beauty on display from McGregor Point out to Cape Kinau. With Haleakala reaching towards the heavens in the east and the West Maui mountain range framing this mighty vista, it always draws plenty of oohs and aahs from those lucky enough to see it. More »

Making a List, Checking It Twice

The holidays are approaching, and that makes me nervous. There seems to be one common theme that dominates this time of year - food. Studies show that almost all Americans gain weight between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day. All year, I work hard to manage my weight and exercise regularly, and I'd hate to see my discipline go down the drain. More »

Ship's Ahoy! - Experiencing an Alaskan Cruise for the Very First Time - Part III

Rated 5.0 Stars

Ahhh, day 5. We're more than halfway through our Alaskan adventure, but there's still so much more to see and do. In this Part 3, we'll be visiting Sitka, eating dinner at Pinnacle Grill, taking in a show, and fattening up at the Dessert Extravaganza. Our boat docked near Sitka at about 8AM. I say "near" because unlike our other stops, disembarking would not be quite as easy. More »

So here are some of my suggestions for the techie inclined on your Christmas list. More »

Plan Your Holiday Cooking to Save Energy

In Hawaii, cooking accounts for about 8% of the average household's energy use. The estimated energy use of an electric range is between 30 and 60 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per month, depending on usage. By comparison, a 1,500-watt microwave oven operated on high power for 20 minutes a day will use roughly 15 kWh per month. More »

Koko Head Crater Trail Hike - Nature's Stairmaster

Rated 5.0 Stars

A sudden increase in the amount of Koko Head trail "tweets" and "status updates" lately prompted me to rearrange the sched - just a tad - and dig up some old images to pen this article. Who knows? After I'm pau, maybe I can jump on the ol' bandwagon and send out a sweet tweet myself. More »

Always Use Protection

Rated 5.0 Stars

Backing up information on your computer is more important than ever. We get a fair share of customers who come in with tears in their eyes asking if we can recover their data from a broken hard drive or corrupted drive. We can do surface level scanning to retrieve old data but once a hard drive is physical broken or massively corrupted, there isn't much to do More »

Sheila Mason's Stellar Astrology for November 2009

Rated 5.0 Stars

Happy Birthday, Scorpio! If others try to push you around on the 2nd, you'll be ready to fight back. The Taurus moon is opposing your sun-sign, Scorpio and is doing so under rather harsh conditions, making you edgy, touchy, and argumentive with your partner. Ride this phase out, Scorpio and carry on until the 16th when a new moon in your sign brings you a whole new attitude, one that is lighter and happier than it's been in quite some time. More »

Muffins

Rated 5.0 Stars

Right now, I'm working on whole wheat muffins. A muffin is basically a single-serving quick bread. One of the reasons I like them is because they freeze so well. You can make lots of them, in many different flavors, and then just pull out a few of each flavor as needed! Muffins are good for using up leftover veggies and fruits. And they can be packed with fiber, helping to keep muffin tops in their rightful place, instead of hanging over our jeans! More »

Home Sale Price Boosters: 10 Free or Cheap Tips

Rated 2.0 Stars

If you need to sell, now could be your best time. No market goes up forever, so this is a part of the natural cycle of supply and demand. Don't wait for an unknown future market unless you can hold on for 5+ years, the minimum it has taken past cycles to swing back the other way. The past "good market" for sellers has been devastating for most buyers, so try to understand that this change is an essential part of the economic cycles. You can and will survive it if you make smart choices. More »

20 Jobs that Pay America's Average Salary

Salaries are always a hot topic in the office -- most often, as an area of complaint. In today's economy, most are simply grateful to earn a salary of any size, but you still hear things like, "I don't earn enough to survive or pay the bills" or "So-and-so is making X amount, I should be, too." Or -- my personal favorite -- "I deserve more." More »

The Tip Off For Kakaako Luxury Condos

It all started almost a year ago when my phone rang. An Investment Banker was on the other end of the line. After a short introduction I asked what I could do for him. He of course is representing a Consortium who wanted to examine 'opportunities' in the Waikiki and more specifically Kakaako Luxury Condo Markets. The information needed by this gentleman included any 'distressed' property sales, Days On Market (D.O.M.), Price / Square Foot, amenities, Sold data, location within Honolulu, etc. More »
