Kāne

In Hawaiian mythology, Kāne is considered the highest of the four major Hawaiian deities, along with Kanaloa, Kū, and Lono, though he is most closely associated with Kanaloa. He represented the god of procreation and was worshipped as ancestor of chiefs and commoners. Kāne is the creator and gives life associated with dawn, sun and sky. No human sacrifice or laborious ritual was needed in the worship of Kāne.

Mythology

The 1907 book,“Legends of Hawaii,“ has the following account of creation involving Kane. The author says that there are several versions of this story, probably due to waves of immigration from different areas of Polynesia at different times, but generally they agree on the major points. It says that in the beginning, there was nothing but Po; the endless black chaos. Then Kane, sensing that he was separate from the Po, pulled himself free of Po by an act of sheer will. Sensing Kane's presence, Lono and then Ku also pulled themselves free of Po. Then Kane created the light to push back Po. Lono brought sound to the universe and Ku brought substance. Between them they created all the lesser Gods. Then together, the three Gods created the Menehune, the lesser spirits to be their messengers and servants. Next they created the world to be a foot stool for the Gods. Finally they gathered red clay from the four corners of the world, they mixed the clay with their spittle, and molded it into the shape of a man. Then Kane took a special magical white clay and formed it into a head. Then the three Gods breathed life into the statue and created the first man. The first man was created in the image of Kane.

KVIQ

KVIQ is a broadcast television station which broadcasts as a CBS affiliate on UHF channel 17 from a transmitter in Eureka, California.

History

KVIQ signed on the air on VHF channel 6 as Eureka's second television station on April 1, 1958. It was owned by Shasta Telecasting, as a satellite station of KVIP-TV (now KRCR-TV) in Redding, California; Shasta Telecasting sold the station to California Northwest Broadcasting in 1960. California Oregon Broadcasting subsequently acquired KIEM-TV (channel 3), which it operated separately from KRCR. KVIQ initially broadcast from studios located on Humboldt Hill Road in Eureka. Since the Eureka market only had two television stations in those early days, KVIQ offered programs from several networks. The station later relocated its studios to a new facility located on Broadway Street in Eureka. By the 1980s, the station was the area's primary NBC affiliate, but it also carried some ABC programs until KAEF (channel 23) went on the air in 1987. The McConnells sold the station to Miller Broadcasting in 1986.

Baby Tiger

by: Cocoon

I saw you in my nightmare, glowing in the dark
Oh baby, baby tiger, I need you back
To hide the nights out of my sight
And when you reached the big tree, your belly reached mine
You tied me up with your feet and with your mouth
You made me come a thousand times (x 2)
And my heart might not be shaped like yours
But I swear it is big enough to be your home
I'm the milk in your cereal bowl
Oh baby, baby tiger, I tame you with my breast
I rub you in the shower, I'll do my best
And I know you're wild but we've got time
And I give you while the best I'll find
And my heart might not be shaped like yours
But I swear it is big enough to be your home
