Thank you to KIKU Television Station in Hawaii for the 12 Days of Christmas giveaway contest on…read moreInstagram. Although I don't watch much television, I know that KIKU features Japanese, Filipino, and even some Chinese shows. KIKU has been around for many years and is an independent television station in Hawaii. Located in Downtown Honolulu on Bishop Street, KIKU Television Station has its office in the Pacific Guardian Center on the 14th floor of the Mauka Tower. I parked in a metered parking stall on Merchant Street, about 2 blocks away. When I opened the door, the receptionist asked me, "Are you a winner?" Haha! After completing a waiver form, she handed me an envelope with a gift card from JQ (Japan Quality) Store. I was so happy! They took a picture and I was on my way to shop! This is a great service for local businesses! This Instagram contest, sponsored by KIKU, helps to advertise small businesses and bring more awareness to customers! Mahalo!

Other than "s'koshi," a WWII import by occupation GIs like my tāmā, I knew almost no Japanese language. But I knew I wanted to be stationed there. So I'd go to okazuyas like the one on South King with pictures of osumo rikishi Takamiyama, Jesse Kuhalua, who resembled la'u tāmā 'afakasi. At home, I would watch Samurai Kinsan and other dramas on KIKU. Ryōtarō Sugi, what a hunk! And another period piece, Oshin, I believe, about palace intrigue. Falsely accused of treachery by a rival, Oshin flees. When she is caught, she commits seppuku in the way of male samurai, choosing hara kiri rather than a short sword to her throat. Much to his horror, her head is delivered to the weakling lover who believed his lying wife (?) and ordered Oshin's execution. Would love to see those shows again. Bring it all back. I practiced the station's signature "Kochira wa Honoruru desu, ju-san chaneru, K-I-K-U, KIKU, nihongo terebi desu." Translation: This is Honolul Channel 13, KIKU, Japanese language television. Memories! I did get stationed in the Kanto Plain from 1980 to 1983, living in Yokohama-shi, Asahi-ku, Shirane-cho. Taking Japanese 101 & 102 at UH helped takusan, mochiron. Good times! Thank goodness KIKU is back to normal.

Arrived early and was standing in line which went all the way to Southwest Airlines counter area , with nothing to do I observed a KITV vehicle driving by. A few minutes later reporter Jeremy Lee is taking video of the long line and asking people if they wanted to be interviewed. I believe KITV was the first station doing the story and highlighting the problems with the broken TSA equipment at Hilo airport. Hopefully the news coverage will put pressure on TSA and airport personnel to resolve this issue.

I was invited to come tour the studio last Sunday evening along with my child who was one of a group of young middle-school journalism students. The students were invited to see what it is like behind-the-scenes at KHON2. It was a very informative and enjoyable experience! First of all parking for studio guests was very convenient. There were marked stalls for guests to use just inside the parking entrance at the ground floor of the building. If these stalls are all occupied it is still very easy to park across the street at Ala Moana Shopping Center. A staff member working with the students met and guided all of our group into the building, and introduced us to some of the people who were working there. They were preparing for that Sunday evening's live 6 PM news report. The students and parents were able to tour the inside of the studio, see some of the offices and editing rooms, and then we were able to watch what happens in the control room and also be in the studio while they filmed the news live! When the live broadcast was over we were able to talk story with the control room director, camera operators, and newscasters, and also got to play a bit with the weather green screen, which the students had so much fun doing! At the end of the tour they let us take some photos behind the news desk, and if you've seen the news desk on TV it's very pretty with the beautiful ocean wave graphics on the big high-tech screens behind the newscasters. Well let me tell you, the whole set looks just as pretty in person and I wish I had a wall like that in my own house LOL! It was very interesting to see five or six news cameras all being controlled by one guy in the room. Technology sure has come along way from 'The old days' :). All in all I think it was eye-opening for everyone. All of the staff we encountered were very friendly, and I'm grateful my child and I got to experience this tour together, as I could see her eyes being opened in a whole new way right in front of me. Mahalo KHON2 for your hospitality!

I almost missed it because it right on the corner. I would have probably missed it if I didn't see a sign and staff out there waving us in. First of all, I'd like to say that PBS Hawaii does an awesome job exciting young minds to create videos. They run a great program called Hiki No which are student produced video stories. I'm really into learning and trying to teach my students how to do that. I have been trying for years but PBS Hawaii's program is wonderful. In the past I've just had to learn on my own. I'm not a professional videographer or even photographer so I don't really know what I'm doing. With Hiki No, they provide mentors to students to help them with their projects. This will be my first year participating in this with my school but we are excited. I'm excited for my students and also myself. I'm glad that I can take part in this process. Anyways, I was at PBS Hawaii because they had several breakout sessions during the day to teach us more about the video process. It was great. They had actual industry professionals giving teachers advice of how to start and what kind of shots would be best. For me, it was the first time that I really felt like I could do this. I'm excited for my students that they get expert help this year. Everyone at PBS Hawaii is wonderful. They're excited to learn about future projects and willing to work with new students.

According to the bio below, PBS Hawaii was once Hawaii Public Television and owned/managed by the…read morestate. It has since broken way from the state and renamed and rebranded itself to PBS Hawaii, which I think has done wonders for the organization. The brand new multi-million dollar broadcasting facility on the corner of Sand Island Access Road and Nimitz is a HUGE improvement from their previous facility at UH Manoa, and I'll bet this would not have been possible had it still been under the ownership/management of the state. This new facility enables PBS Hawaii to produce a lot of great local programming including HIKI NO, which are stories on topics of local interest, made and produced by Hawaii's own middle and high schoolers from public and private schools! In addition to the quality programming that PBS Hawaii airs on TV, it also hosts exclusive events for Keiki Club members, such as this past weekend's halloween costume party which was held at their brand new studio. As keiki club members, we got a little peak at their new facility and also got a photo op with Daniel Tiger! If you want to join in on the fun, just google 'pbs hawaii keiki club' for more info. $30 annual donation gets your child a cool welcome packet, on-air birthday greeting, birthday card and surprise present, quarterly newsletter, and most important, invites to exclusive members-only events!

The host, Guy Hagi, is excellent. The problem is with Augie T. He makes jokes on the restaurant and food - basically, using airtime to showcase his "comedy act."

Please consider replacing Augie T or just have Mr Hagi do the segments himself! Food is not meant to be funny but enjoyed for it's taste. This is no joke.
