Hawaii's regular sunshine, short rain showers and clean air come together to create some of the planet's best conditions for viewing rainbows. Rainbows are seen so often here that a University of Hawaii professor calls the state the "rainbow capital of the world."

"Hawaii has maybe the best rainbows on the planet," said Steven Businger, professor of atmospheric sciences at the University of Hawaii at Manoa.

He has even created an app called RainbowChase to help people find rainbows in Hawaii.

Rainbows form when drops of rain refract sunlight into a spectrum of colors. The brighter the sun, the clearer the rainbow.

Hawaii's winds bring many small showers with enough blue sky between them for the sun to shine through. Conditions are best during the rainy season from October through April.

Visitors should look for rainbows when it's both sunny and raining at the same time. Rainbows will appear opposite the sun. They will seem larger and higher in the sky in the early morning and late afternoon, when the sun is lower on the horizon.

Rainbows are popular symbols of island life. Pictures of them can be seen on buildings and buses, and even on vehicle license plates.

"They cause us to stand still and for a moment, forget about the past and the future," Businger said.

There are about 20 names for rainbows in the Hawaiian language, including different words for different types of rainbows.

Sam 'Ohu Gon III, senior scientist and cultural adviser at The Nature Conservancy in Hawaii, said rainbows are considered a symbol of Kāne, one of the four main gods in Hawaiian tradition. The closer you get to a rainbow, the more likely you are to meet a supernatural force or a powerful person, he said.

A rainbow is also believed to show that an aumakua — a deified family member or family god — is nearby.

毎日飲むお茶

私が日常的に飲んでいるのは、紅茶でもコーヒーでもなく、ほうじ茶だ。ほうじ茶とは緑茶の茶葉（ちゃば）を焙（ほう）じて淹（い）れるお茶である。こだわりはなく、スーパーで買うお徳用（とくよう）のパックで十分満足できる。麦茶（むぎちゃ）やウーロン茶も美味しいと思うけど、ほうじ茶の独特の香（こう）ばしさと味わいが一番好き。

If there is one valuable lesson about humility and personal development that I learned from the book of Ryan Holiday, "it is the fact that for you to improve, you have to accept the fact that you are not as good as you think."  TRAIN like a NEWBIE in everything.

LOS AZTECAS.

Uno de los grupos indígenas mexicanos más conocidos es el formado por los aztecas. En realidad, se trata de muchas tribus individuales, principalmente de habla nahuatl, que reconocen su origen en el mítico lugar de Aztlán. El grupo más poderoso de los aztecas era el Mexica. Al parecer, se trasladaron al Valle de México después de que su dios, Huitzilopochtli, les ordenase cambiar de emplazamiento en el siglo XIII. Se cree que otras 16 tribus indígenas emigraron de su tierra natal a esta zona de México donde se encontraba el Imperio Azteca.

Siendo uno de los últimos pueblos indígenas en llegar al Valle de México, los mexicas encontraron que toda la buena tierra estaba ya ocupada. Se vieron obligados a seguir buscando su propio lugar hasta que finalmente encontraron una pequeña isla en un lago del valle, que luego se convertiría en el famoso asentamiento azteca de Tenochtitlán. Los mexicas se hicieron expertos en el desarrollo de su país de origen, lo que les ayudó a elevar su posición en la escala social y política del Imperio Azteca, así como los matrimonios mixtos con otras tribus.
