| Searching for the bicycle regulations used at USAKA I last visited there in 1989 for an inspection of the US Army Civic Action Team on Google. These rules were in a welcome package for visitors as I remember they were pretty stringent. I almost took that copy thinking I would return again. I would greatly appreciate a link or a electronic copy of the rules if you have it available. Thanks, John Terrell, CMC, USN Ret., cmcret@sbcglobal.net | ||||||||

| NEW KWAJ COOKBOOK ABOUT TO BE
PUBLISHED! Christian Women’s Fellowship (CWF), formerly known as the Protestant Women’s Group (PWG), is about to publish a NEW KWAJ COOKBOOK. Historically, this has been their one source of funding for all the many things they do throughout the year. This includes hosting retreats with Marshallese Christian sisters, Bible studies, craft nights, Carlson Christmas (or Easter) drop and many other service projects. Several years back, the organization changed its name to be more inclusive to other Christian women of the island. This includes Protestant, Catholic, Baptist, and Church of Christ women. We are currently looking for MORE recipes. If you are interested in submitting one, please e-mail the address at the bottom of this article. We need all kinds of recipes and would love notes regarding your life on Kwajalein to make it even more personal. We are also hoping to include pictures, so if you have a GREAT Kwaj picture (or even of the reunion, send that along too! THE DEADLINE FOR ALL IS OCTOBER 1st, so get them in NOW. Do not procrastinate!! Once we receive everything, we will then send off to the publisher. We hope to have them back before Christmas, but we are stuck with how we are going to get them on island with the new postal rules and regulations. So we are not promising they will be ready. We also do not know a cost yet. If you are interesting in pre-ordering, feel free to send an e-mail to the address below and the minute they are ready, we will contact you. THANKS!! Lora J. Kendrick, Cookbook typist; e-mail: KendricL@kwajalein-school.com or chadley@hadleyplace.com |

| Novel - Rivers of Belief by Richard
Craig Anderson (Kwaj 1989-92)
Michael Brennan is a cop in pursuit of a serial rapist–and the rapist has targeted Natasha Panova, the love of Michael's life. Ocean City, Maryland is a gemstone among the east coast resorts, a city of old values and older sins. In 1994 a predator moves at will through a town overflowing with tourists, and it appears that he's a cop. Or is he? Michael is a compassionate ladies man. He takes a personal interest in the vicious but seemingly unrelated attacks because he is a pro, and because he's known abuse. Two others are drawn into the hunt: Michael's courageous friend Officer Levi Hart, and Natasha–a brilliant waitress who dances to a logical beat. Levi knows one of the victims–but he's reluctant to say why–and Natasha knows that she is next on the rapist's list. Together, they trace the clues. As Michael closes in he discovers that he's become a suspect, and when a jealous coworker threatens to derail the investigation, he realizes that his crusade for justice may cost him his soul, Levi his honor, and Natasha her life. When Michael finally confronts the rapist, he turns out to be someone who was there all along– but nobody noticed. Georgetown Press is a small company with plans to publish four or five new titles per year. Rivers of Belief is its premier publication. Order Now |

| I am looking for anyone who knew Tullus and Johnye Crawford My parents will be celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary in April. In celebration of their stay in on Kwajalein in the early 60’s, I am looking for anyone who knew them to send me any old photographs or fond memories of my parents. My parents are Tullus and Johnye Crawford. Johnye was a secretary to Army and then later Marine officers. Tullus did not work for the military, but was an engineer (I think with Western Electric or General Electric). Thanks for your help!

| Pohnpei Pepper Pohnpei Pepper Association, PO Box 301, Kolonia, Pohnpei FSM, Tel & Fax 690-320-2201, email: sei.f.pepper@mail.fm. What makes Pohnpei pepper so special? Pohnpei has ideal pepper growing conditions. Ninety percent of the pepper in the world comes from India, Indonesia, Brazil and Malaysia. Pohnpei certainly can't compete since it has only 130 square miles of total area and only 40 acres of this is planted in pepper. Pepper plants need a lot of water; at least 100 inches of rain a year with even distribution. They don't tolerate a dry season and they love heat. Some people swear by white pepper and some love the black, both are available, and they com from the same plant. The black pepper berries are picked when fully grown but still green and then dunked in scalding water and baked or sun-dried to darken, and the milder white pepper is harvested from fully ripe red berries which then ferment in water for eight days, their red skins rubbed off, and then they are baked or dried in the sun. | ||||||||

| Tsunami Risk at Kwajalein Kevin Quinn, mitquinn@comcast.net, Fremont, CA USA. I was indirectly involved with Kwajalein in the early 80's. I worked with Global Associates and tried to work on the workers compensation insurance for the employees on the island. I asked my contact in Oakland about the risk of a tsunami wiping out the place. He told me the risk was nil, as the drop off from the shore to the ocean floor was severe, and the shock waves from a quake would not be slowed down as they approached, and then passed over, Kwajalein. After the tragedy in Asia this past weekend, I see that Maldives got hammered, and they are a nation of small islands. Anyone have any thoughts on this? | ||||||||

You will want to visit our online store every day for "Featured Items" and "Bonus Buys" that are located on our home page! We innovated these features primarily because customers are tired of seeing "static" online stores that never change, and once you have visited these stores initially, there is really no reason to return to them because everything stays the same – day after day, week after week, month after month and year after year! The "Featured Items" window showcases an item for that day, and "Bonus Buys" are items that are on sale or on clearance. Prices change every day! Please note that a "return" for refund will not be accepted because of price changes. We know you will be back every day to check on "Bonus Buy’s" and encourage you to do so. We hope you will enjoy your shopping experience with us. Thank you for your loyalty and your business! Boutique Boutique | ||||||||
| Wanted Swizzle Sticks They may be trash and not worth much, but don't throw those old swizzle sticks away. I belong to ISSCA (International Swizzle Stick Collectors Association) and I would love to have those old discards. Our next bi-annual convention will be held this year in Las Vegas, August 6th to 8th. We do a lot of trading and have piles of sticks for members to sort through for ones they don't have. If you have a collection, large or small or just a few I'd love to have them. Don't let e-bay or antique shops mislead you on their value. I will be glad to pay postage or even a modest sum.
