“Mele Kalikimaka” is the Hawaiian phrase meaning “Merry Christmas.” The phrase is borrowed directly from English, but, since the Hawaiian language does not possess the “r” or “s” of English, “Merry Christmas” becomes “Mele Kalikimaka.” The phrase also became a popular hapa haole song written in 1949 by R. Alex Anderson. It has since been recorded by several artists, including Don Ho, the Beach Boys, and Jimmy Buffett.

N) 2011. “Remember Pearl Harbor” Hawaiian Elongated Coins – Limited Edition Quarter Set
1941-2011 – The 70th Anniversary of Pearl Harbor.
Sunday morning, December 7, 1941, marked the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor and the Island of Oahu, by the naval and air forces of Japan. The most severe loss that day was the USS Arizona, with a total of 1177 lives. The next day, the United States entered WW II by declaring war on Japan. President Franklin D. Roosevelt proclaimed December 7th “a date which will live in infamy”. Throughout the war and after, the cry of “Remember Pearl Harbor” became an inspiration to many Americans.
2011 marks the 70th Anniversary of that fateful day in American History. To help commemorate this significant anniversary, our 70th Anniversary elongated penny has been redesigned and enlarged to fit the USA Quarter. Just 70 sets have been rolled on both the 2008 Arizona and Hawaii State Quarters. The image from the State Quarter design is visible on the reverse side of each elongated quarter. The quarters are mounted on a specially designed information and presentation card.
Designed by Paul Conner, engraved and rolled by Lee and Vicky Bowser.

P) Historic Railroads of Hawaii. Series III – Oahu Railroads - 2012
1) The Oahu Railway & Land Company, the Oahu Sugar Company and the Hawaiian Railway are important parts of Oahu’s Railroad history.
Oahu Railway & Land Company, or OR&L, was a narrow gauge common carrier railroad that served much of Oahu until its dissolution in 1947. The OR&L was founded by Benjamin F. Dillingham, a self-made businessman who arrived in Honolulu as a sailor in 1865.
2) Engine No. 85-Oahu Railway and Land Company was built by the American Locomotive Company in October 1910 at the Cooke Works in Patterson, New Jersey. It was used primarily in passenger service, and during WWII No. 85 was the primary commuter locomotive between Honolulu and Barbers Point. In 1953 she was donated to the Southern California Chapter of the Railway and Locomotive Historical Society and immediately transferred to the City of Los Angeles Travel Town Museum, where she operated under steam until 1961. No. 85 was then acquired by the Lahaina, Kaanapali and Pacific in 1993, then sold to the Hawaiian Railway Society in November 2010 and returned to Honolulu, where she is currently under restoration.
3) The Oahu Sugar Company “Puuloa” No.7 was built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in Philadelphia in 1901, and retired to a section of track along with OSC #1 next to the Waipahu mill, where they sat until being sold in the 1960’s. Both were shipped to California and No. 7 went to a now defunct tourist railroad, the Camino Cable and Northern Railroad. She returned to Hawaii in the 1970’s and in 1993, the “Puuloa” was moved to the Hawai’i Plantation village in Waipahu and remains on permanent display.
4) The Hawaiian Railway No. 423 is an ex. US Navy locomotive, built by the Whitcomb Locomotive Works in Chicago, Illinois in 1944. No. 423 began service with the US Navy in 1945 and hauled freight between Pearl Harbor and the Naval Ammunition Depot. She was donated by the US Navy to the Hawaiian Railway Society in 1975; along with sister engine Oahu Railway no. 302, and both are currently used to pull the passenger cars on the HRS tours each Sunday.

U) 2012: Aloha!
The Hawaii Law Enforcement Memorial Foundation was formed in February 2010. It was established to honor Hawaii’s law enforcement officers who died in the line of duty. Hawaii is the only state in the nation which does not have a law enforcement memorial. The goal of the Foundation is to raise funds to design, build, and maintain a Hawaii Law Enforcement Memorial. The Memorial will honor Hawaii’s fallen officers from every branch of service: federal, state, local, and military police. Once built, the Memorial will stand as a perpetual tribute to those who selflessly gave of themselves so that the people of Hawaii can live, work, and raise their families in safety and peace.
The State of Hawaii has set aside land on the capitol district and the University of Hawaii’s School of Architecture has submitted an award winning design. Now we need your help to raise $1 million to make the Memorial a reality.
For a donation of $5.00 (plus a self-addressed stamped envelope) to the Hawaii Law Enforcement Memorial Foundation (HLEMF), Michael Mochizuki will send you a pair of new elongated pennies with the HLEMF logo, one rolled on a copper penny, and one rolled on a U.S. nickel.
