    HAWAII STATE QUARTER COMMISSION NARROWS CHOICES

    Speaking of Hawaii, the Honolulu Star-Bulletin reported on
    Friday that "Unless there's an upset, Hawaii's quarter should
    feature King Kamehameha I, the word "Aloha" and the outline of
    the Hawaiian Islands.

    A commission narrowing down suggestions for the nation's last
    state quarter yesterday placed the three icons in most of five
    final sketches."

    "Rounding off the top eight symbols still in contention are the
    state motto (Ua mau ke ea o ka aina i ka pono: The life of the
    land is perpetuated in righteousness), surfing, Diamond Head Crater,
    a female hula dancer and a lei. All could still earn a spot on the
    commemorative coin, which is set to be released in the fall of 2008.

    About 40 commissioners, chosen to represent all islands and
    different ethnic groups, spent two hours at the state Capitol
    yesterday before unveiling their concepts."
