Those who knew George Ellis, the much-admired former director of the Honolulu Museum of Art, remember his goal of curating the museum to welcome and teach people from all walks of life. George was trying to bring it back to where every ethnic group in Honolulu would view it as home and would become part of it, said art patron Tim Choy, who knew Ellis in his prime.
Ellis, who led the museum formerly known as the Honolulu Academy of Arts from 1982 until 2003, died on June 26. Under his leadership, the museum expanded its art holdings and deepened roots in the community.

Compromised cloud accounts cost organizations millions each year, a new report from cybersecurity firm Proofpoint and IT security research organization Ponemon Institute claims.
Part of the problem surrounds the fact that many don’t know who is responsible for safeguarding that data. At the same time, criminals are increasingly eyeing up cloud as a treasure trove of sensitive data.
The average cost of cloud account compromises has gone up to $6.2 million in the last 12 months, the report says, adding that for the 600 IT and IT security pros that were polled, account takeover presents a “significant security risk”. The frequency and severity of these incidents increased over the course of the last year, as well.
Practice, practice, practice.
It is an old saying Washburn Rural High School music dean and band director Luke Chaffee says has always applied to students honing their musical skills, but it is also one that has taken on greater importance in a school year where in-person activities, like traditional band or choir practices, have been all but impossible.
That is what makes this year’s slate of All-State music ensemble student honorees that much more impressive, Chaffee said.
The Kansas Music Educators Association named over two dozen Shawnee County students as All-State ensemble members or alternates of their respective choir, band and orchestra groups. They will perform this weekend in a one-of-a-kind, virtual gathering of some of the Kansas schools’ best musical talent.
SACRAMENTO – Sacramento City and County staffers acknowledged that the issue wasn’t “super sexy” and might not draw as much input as some others locals are dealing with of late, but is important in its far-reaching implications.
They held the first of several virtual conversations about the disparate impact of fines and fees on low-income residents and people of color this past weekend. The discussions are part of the Cities & Counties for Fine and Fee Justice reform program that granted Sacramento City and County $50,000 to reform harmful fines and fees that can have detrimental effects. Amy Williamson, who manages Sacramento’s City Empowerment Center, said Sacramento was one of 10 urban and rural areas selected for the grant. Other areas include Seattle, Dallas, Durham, North Carolina, and Philadelphia.
