Humans constantly feel the need to expand grounds or to go where conditions are best suited for them. Eventually, a tribe or race would have met another on their own. But what was life like before the different tribes and races met? In present day research, it is seen that though there was no contact whatsoever, separated ancient

The mournful song of Aloha Oe swells as we pan the transport, its decks, and the gangway and wharf looking for whom this song is meant.

I began participating in the Aloha Youth Football program at age ten and consider myself a member of the program to this day. Beyond the sport of football, the Aloha program and its coaches encouraged a life of togetherness, positive attitude, perseverance, and excellence. In addition to
