4 people have been killed on our roads and we’re only 5 days into 2026.
If you’re trying to do the math, that’s about one person a day.

Revlimid has its origin in a pill that cost patients $7.50 each.
Decades later, the cancer drug costs more than $18,000 for a month’s supply — even though it still only costs about 25 cents to manufacture.

The Price of Remission: This Cancer Drug Saves Lives — but Costs a Fortune. I Wanted to Know Why.

Hauʻoli Makahiki Hou to you and your ʻOhana!
Many came out to enjoy the fireworks on Skyline, and everyone celebrated together in their own way. If there’s a will, there’s a way. Despite the state’s best efforts the people of Oahu still put on a spectacular, if not legally dubious, fireworks show.
