My grandmother said that she saw a red worm on the patio. (It might have been a centipide or something "worm like." She is from the Philippines and she said that the worm was poisonous and if it bit my dog it would kill it. The worm is a reddish colour.

there are quite a few poisonous worm like crearues in the philippines, but none enough to kill a dog.

the poisonous worms in hawaii are strong enough to kill small insects or make very small mammals ill for a few days, so your dog will be fine


2-20 million, depending on where you are talking about. You would be lucky to find anything that big available.

When flying a small civil aircraft, for example from Oahu to Molokai, does one always have to fly at an altitude within a gliding distance to land?

Thanks.

Wrongo boys, if you are a part 91 operation, no such conditions exist,
§ 91.119 Minimum safe altitudes: General.
<snip>
c) Over other than congested areas. An altitude of 500 feet above the surface, except over open water or sparsely populated areas. In those cases, the aircraft may not be operated closer than 500 feet to any person, vessel, vehicle, or structure.

§ 91.205 Powered civil aircraft with standard category U.S. airworthiness certificates: Instrument and equipment requirements.

12) If the aircraft is operated for hire over water and beyond power-off gliding distance from shore, approved flotation gear readily available to each occupant and, unless the aircraft is operating under part 121 of this subchapter, at least one pyrotechnic signaling device. As used in this section, “shore” means that area of the land adjacent to the water which is above the high water mark and excludes land areas which are intermittently under water.

explores the culture, human rights, and spirituality of the indigenous people of Hawaii and how it relates to the land. Much like the Native Americans, the Hawaiians have lost access to most of their ancestral land since the takeover of the US in 1893. This compelling 10 minute “shorts” version appeared at the Maui Film Fesetival 5/15/07.

Planning a 40th birthday trip to Hawaii. I have 2 yrs to save. :) Would like to get the best bang for my buck. Which would you suggest. doing a Hawaiian cruise which gives you an overview of several islands or doing a land package? BTW I’ve never been on a cruise before either. :)

It depends. Do you want to go on a cruise or do you want to see Hawaii? I have never cruised before and think I would love it, but not if I want to actually see anything once I’m in port.

I live in Hawaii so I see people from the cruise ships all the time. They’re always in a hurry to get to one shopping site or another or rushing to catch their shuttle back to the ship…doesn’t seem very relaxing to me. Most of the port stops on Hawaii cruises are just for the day — meaning less than 8 hours — so you don’t get to see much of the island. The views of the islands as you leave port must be very pretty, but in terms of experiencing Hawaii’s culture/food/history, etc., nah. You won’t have done it if you come here on a cruise.

If you REALLY want to see Hawaii, I suggest that you choose no more than 2 islands and just hang out on land. If you want to hit the ocean, go snorkeling, surfing, or swimming…or even take a day sail somewhere (Maui and Kauai both offer great day sails). If you want to be pampered and get to eat 24/7 and have people bring you drinks all day and night, take the cruise! ;)

The end of the Chain of Craters Road is currently around Mile Marker 19, just at the Holei Sea Arch and about ½ mile from the National Park eruption viewing station. Good, if distant, viewing of the eruption, displays about the volcano and natural history of the area, as well as a wealth of information on hiking to, and viewing, the lava, are available here. In addition, numerous sea arches, sea caves, fabulous bird watching, indescribable ocean views and some pretty good biking are to be found here. Even if the lava flows are too far away to be easily hiked to, the hike along the new land, twisted lava forms and endless basalt landscape is well worth the drive to the end of the road.

Over the months and years, the lava river issuing from Pu’u O’o winds its way back and forth across the lava plain of about 8 miles breadth, usually flowing into the sea within Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, but sometimes outside the eastern margin of the Park on County of Hawaii land, sometimes ponding behind the low lava hills for weeks at a time without entering the ocean at all. Check with the rangers about flow conditions; they can tell you the best way to approach these flows. Current eruption updates are available from the National Park Service by calling 808.985.600. Listen to their advice, heed their warnings, especially if you plan to hike all the way to the lava flows.

They did…but it wasn’t hundreds of years ago. There was a treaty, I think it was in 1863, for commercial exchange with the Hawaiians.
It was James Cook, an English explorer, who discovered the Hawaiian Islands in 1778 and named them the Sandwich Islands.

***Despite Cook’s death, these voyages successfully explored great reaches of the Pacific and opened the door for future expeditions from England, France, Spain, and Russia. For years after Cook’s death, Hawaiians held ambivalent feelings about him, inquiring of other sea captains whether Cook would ever return and questioning whether Cook had, in revenge, sent the Spaniards to make them slaves and take their country. The natives were especially concerned about how long Cook would stay hostile towards them, blaming his anger for volcanic eruptions in Hawai’i.

I believe it is ag land and was wondering how much it is worth per acre.

You can look into what the recent values are of properties that have sold. You might find this information online. Another option would be to ask a real estate agent that is familiar with the market there.
