two recently published articles and some earlier work

January 26th, 2008

Updated the list of articles for December and January to include a New Year’s Eve piece for HI Luxury and a story on UH summer programs in historical preservation and archeology on the Big Island of Hawaii for Malamalama.

Also added is the list of my Malamalama stories from Feb. 04 - Jan. 07. These are on subjects I usually wouldnt even think to write about (except the one on KTUH radio). I learn a lot writing about such diverse topics in history, the environment, tourism and the arts, as well as the interests of the institution behind the curtain.

The layout on the website doesnt do much justice to the photos and illustrations. The PDFs of Malamalama that are available for download are much better.

Finally, managed to get together links for some early Hana Hou stories. That’s the inflight magazine for Hawaiian Airlines. I need to write more for them, they do a really good job.

short article in the UH alum mag, Malamalama

September 10th, 2007

A short piece in Malamalama this month called “Athletes Gain from Academic Strength Training.” What? You wanted more? LoL.

The article on Spiritual Ecology is the one I wish I had written, tho athletics was a fun topic given the recent Once a Warrior commotion. The people I spoke with for the story are really committed to helping athletes learn how to learn, whereas the book’s angle is apparently more in line with the athletes getting their work done for them. How shocking!

My story next issue (January) should be fun! I got to go to the Big Island and ramble around old kalo (taro) terraces and Volcanoes National Park.

total eclipse of the moon

August 28th, 2007

The clouds came in after we saw a brilliant, full, manapua moon get ate by the shadow of the earth. We experienced the “totality” but missed the orange effect. It was still amazing, really hypnotic. And thanks to this (mostly) steady-handed youtube user, we got an idea of what we missed.

These are the articles that kept me busy and having fun this summer. The Hana Hou ones should eventually be online, I’ll link em up when they are. I dont think HI Luxury has a website.
