I regularly have a bento lunch at the Diamond Head Lookout.   This is my view. So right next to me is this plaque, which commemorates the first solo flight from Hawaii to North American in 1935 by Amelia Earhart.  She Piloted a Lockheed Vega right over this spot on her way to Oakland.  From my posting of 9June2016: About her around the world adventure two years later in 1937 with Fred Noonan, she arrived in Lae, New Guinea:  and   I myself once had too much of an adventure here . They next headed for Howland Island, and   disappeared . There are at least   eight conspiracy theories , ranging from being kidnapped by aliens to capture by Japanese troops leading to her becoming one of the Tokyo Roses to.... Well, yesterday it was announced that Deep Sea Vision of South Carolina, using an unmanned, underwater drone, scanned more than 5200 square miles of the Pacific Ocean last year, and company founder Tony Romeo believes after leaving Papua New Guinea Amelia Earhart and her navigator Fred

I yesterday posted on the Trials and Tribulations of Donald Trump.  Inserted was the following: Four years ago,  Donald Trump was up to 18 women who have accused him of varying inappropriate sexual behavior .  EIGHTEEN!!!  Click on that link to read the details and see their photo.  E. Jean has been coy about what she will do with the $88.3 million she will eventually get.  She is now 80 years old.  Not much time to do much with those funds when they become available.  One sure way to seriously bedevil Trump would be to someday soon announce that most this money will be provided to those women who need legal assistance to similarly go after Trump and his billions. Oh, an update, I found a  2023 article indicating that this number was not 18, but 26.   One of them was Ivana Trump, mother of Don Jr., Eric and Ivanka. I thought the repercussions from his failed attempted coup on 6January2021 would be his ultimate downfall.  Could well be, but it would be deserving, indeed, if that E. Jean

  The   trials and tribulation of Donald Trump   continue this week: Last week he was found liable for $83.3 million in the E. Jean Carroll defamation case.  And, by the way, that $5 million awarded to her had to be paid, and will be held by the state pending appeal.  The same will occur this time too, which means that Trump will need to sell something to meet that need.  I might add a  thing or two about Carroll . There is a  photo of Trump and Carroll (circled) in the 1980's  when she was in her 40's.  She was then writing for Saturday Night Live.  She looked pretty attractive. She has been twice divorced, the second one in 1990. In the mid-90's she was host and producer of the Ask E. Jean television series aired on NBC's American's Talking, the predecessor to MSNBC.  She won a CableACE Award in 1995. The incident occurred around 1995, or 1996. Carroll was one of 13 women who accused CBS Corporation executive Les Moonves of sexual assault in 2019.  Occurred in the
