Pūpūkea is a community and census-designated place (CDP) in the Koʻolauloa District on the island of Oʻahu, City & County of Honolulu, Hawaii, United States. In Hawaiian, pūpūkea means "white shell". As of the 2010 Census, the CDP had a population of 4,551. The Koʻolauloa District ends at Waimea Bay, with the Waialua District extending south and westward.
Pūpūkea is a popular area on Oʻahu's North Shore for living and for visiting. The best known surfing sites of Velzyland, Sunset (at Sunset Beach Park), Kammieland, Pūpūkea, ʻEhukai, Pipeline (these latter two off adjacent ʻEhukai Beach Park and Banzai Beach) and lesser breaks are arrayed off this shore. Popular diving areas known as Three Tables and Sharks Cove are located at Pūpūkea Beach Park. At the southwest end of Pūpūkea is Waimea Bay, with one of the most popular beaches on the island forming the shore at Waimea Beach Park.
Popular residential areas here include the beach lots at Sunset Beach and the uplands of Pūpūkea. The biggest drawback to living in this part of the island is the considerable driving distance to Honolulu.

i am doing a table for MCC at the neighborhood festival tomorrow... only i heard about it months ago and it didn't come up again until WEDNESDAY, when i was told that it was to be a craft table, the theme was sustainable living, and that the materials from the Mennonite Central Committee might not come through. hmmm. well, they didn't come through.
so it may be a lousy table and i could use a lot of prayers, but i'm taking the stuff shown. the bowl with the balls of yarn has three scarves started in it that people can come by and knit on them as they feel the need. i'm thinking community scarves. then i can talk to people about sustainable creativity... i.e. sweater recycling and caring where things come from. the red sweater in the back is a size XXL American Eagle wool sweater that i've started ripping apart. it will be part of the display and also easier for me to explain how to recycle sweater in this way with a sample. the other scarves (lower left) are ones that i've made.
i'm not sure how to talk about MCC and the thrift store because i do not feel qualified... so it may be more about knitting. it's nice to have a fall-back topic that i actually know something about! the stuff i've read about the festival are sketchy... hope i'm not the only entertainment craft-wise. that could be scary.
On June 5, 2012, you will see the planet Venus as it moves across the face of the early morning sun. This astronomical oddity has played a very important role over the last few centuries in giving scientists a way to understand the size of the solar system.
There is some evidence that the ancient Babylonians saw and recorded on a tablet something about Venus and the Sun in the 16th Century B.C., but the record is not clear. It is fair to say though that Galileo Galilee with his telescope, in 1610, was the first human to actually see Venus as more than just a bright point of light in the sky. Johannes Kepler, meanwhile, was shaking up the world with his meticulous use of astronomical data assembled by Tycho Brahe. He predicted that Venus would pass in front of the Sun on December 6, 1631, but unfortunately the transit was not visible from Europe at all.
The first recorded sighting of this transit was by British cleric, Jeremiah Horrocks, and his friend William Crabtree, on December 4, 1639—only because Horrocks had mathematically predicted it, using better data than Kepler did.
Scientists discovered they could use the transit to figure out the size of the solar system! How do we know that the actual distance from Sun to Earth is 93 million miles and not, say, 153 million or 23 million? In 1663, mathematician Rev. James Gregory suggested that a more accurate calculation of the Earth-Sun distance could be made during the transit of Venus. It turned out to be harder than anticipated, but during subsequent transits, the focus on Venus led to an even more exciting discovery.
During the transit of June 5, 1761, observed by 176 scientists from all over the world, Russian astronomer Mikhail Lomonosov (1711-1765) discovered a very strange thing. Instead of the very black disk of Venus sliding into the Sun's bright edge, it actually grew a brief, beautiful halo of light all around its dark edge. This is exactly what you would expect to see if Venus had an atmosphere!
In 1769 many international expeditions planned observations. The most famous expedition was led by Capt. James Cook, who set up an observation post in Tahiti with his ship, the Endeavour. The expedition astronomers, with help from a detachment of Royal Marines, set up an observatory on a high point of ground above the bay (still known as "Point Venus") and made many transit measurements. They later discovered New Zealand, got stuck on the Great Barrier Reef for several weeks, and explored many of the then unknown coasts of Australia. Cook and his crew completed their trip around the Earth and reached England safely and in triumph. The expedition established Cook's fame as a mariner and explorer.
The next transit, on December 6, 1882, made the front pages of every national and international newspaper! Thousands of photographs were taken with improved calibrations. Only a few astronomers were trusted to carry out the complex calculations from the resulting data. In 1896, Simon Newcomb's value, a distance from Earth to Sun of 92,702,000 plus or minus 53,700 miles, was adopted by the international scientific community. Today most textbooks report the Astronomical Unit (or AU) as "93 million miles."

Everyone pulls together for the harvest (it's a fairly small village). Even children who now live in town come back to help out. The reaping is done by hand, though these folk have a motorized threshing machine (the red box with a half-cylinder top). Many places still use a peddle-powered thresher. Yunhe, Lishui, Zhejiang.

Love A Sea Turtle (L.A.S.T.) and Greenville Police Athletic League (PAL) teamed up to renovate the community garden at Thomas Foreman Park and Eppes Recreation Center. The renovations were made possible by U.S. Cellular's "The Future of Good" grant awarded to L.A.S.T.'s Abby Yoon, one of only six grants awarded.
