		<title>What&#8217;s next for Molokai?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Molokai Ranch got a judge to order Maui County to at least explore an out-of-court settlement of its suits against the company. This could set off some new developments in Molokai&#8217;s economy.
Residents had blocked Molokai Ranch from building million-dollars on La&#8217;au Point, the arid southwestern tip of the islands. The land is just scrub brush, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Continental joins other airlines in betting on Hawaii</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Continental had been managing with a single daily flight from Los Angeles to Hawaii, but yesterday it more than tripled its Southern California airlift to the islands.
A second daily flight from LAX to HNL is just the beginning of it. A third daily flight from LAX will go to Kahului, and four times a week [...]]]></description>

		<title>The concert is today!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A Light History of Classical Music is this afternoon at 4 p.m. at Orvis Auditorium, UH Manoa. We had our big rehearsal last night.
We added some jokes, shortened a couple of passages &#8211; I like to shorten what I have written even if isn&#8217;t too long &#8211; and two ladies from the Green Sneakers Quartet [...]]]></description>

		<title>To lend or not to lend? Bankers beg the question</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Is petulant behavior by megabank chief executives prolonging our economic slump? I&#8217;m starting to suspect it, as the biggest banks increasingly hoard their cash instead of lending.
Is this bad? Business executives and politicians definitely want the banks to turn the taps back on, at least a little, and I&#8217;m trying to get a sense of whether [...]]]></description>

		<title>Preparing for the concert</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Bernadette and I have just spent an hour printing scripts for Sunday afternoon&#8217;s Light History of Classical Music, since our big rehearsal with the musicians is this evening (Saturday evening) in the UH Manoa Music Department.
Have you ever noticed that if you ever dare load a paper tray to its alleged capacity, you risk shortening [...]]]></description>

		<title>The next airline to serve Hawaii</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s a long list, the number of airlines that fly to Hawaii from the U.S. mainland, and it goes far beyoind the major airlift providers such as United, Hawaiian, Delta, American, Continental, US Airways and Alaska.
There are Air Canada and its discount competitor WestJet, to give two more examples, but even beyond that pair and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Music Post: Four styles of soprano sax</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I was a kid, my dad would take the family to free concerts in Annapolis by the U.S. Naval Academy Band. Their classical music was a joy to listen to but there was one guy who played saxophone who never blended in because his vibrato stood out.
As an adult I&#8217;ve come to realize that [...]]]></description>

		<title>Run for your lives! It&#8217;s the coqui frog!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hawaii residents who live in places that still don&#8217;t have coqui frog infestations have no idea what it&#8217;s like to bear the racket these little critters make. But I know, after staying the night in Hilo once.
It was a splendid bed-and-breakfast on the side of a ravine, with beautiful falls visible and audible from the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Payroll tax relief sent to Lingle for signature</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Hawaii Legislature has moved swiftly and without folderol to deal with a problem that was bizarre even by the standards of the state&#8217;s weird budget crisis. It enacted tax relief for taxes not even paid.
This is a good thing, because the tax, which was about to be levied against businesses, and which was designed [...]]]></description>
