Why did Hawaii become the 50th state?
Statehood carries with it a number of advantages for any state, not just Hawaii. You get an automatic free trade agreement with all the other American states - no tariffs. And you get influence in the US government, which is probably more significant than the influence that you would be able to exert as an independent nation. In the case of Hawaii, there is also a huge US naval base at Pearl Harbor, which is economically significant. The naval base spends lots of money. And of course, there is a certain amount of security involved in being part of the US, which is the world's greatest military power.
Aloha. Answer: November 26, 1778. According to a Berkley University study, the first people to migrate here in Maui were the Marquesas. They sailed in 750 A.D. The Marqueses didn't know anything about the island. They just notice that every time their birds go to this direction and come back after several month are much fatter.
The Tahitians followed the Marquesas and brought goddesses and religion. The Tahitians introduced to the islands the kapu system, a strict social order that affected all aspects of life and became the core of ancient Hawaiian culture.
The Hawaiians were living on simple life style until Captain James Cook discovered Maui on November 26, 1778.

On January 16, 1996, foam insulation caught fire during the construction of the Subaru Telescope on Mauna Kea. Three construction workers died of smoke inhalation and twelve more were hospitalized, at least three of them overnight. One worker was rescued from the observatory's roof by a fire helicopter. Two days later, authorities reported that the fire had apparently been started by a cutting torch.

How do you answer 'What can you offer us that other people cannot' in a job interview?
I can easily offer you what others cannot, i.e. my ability to use whatever knowledge, talents and abilities I possess, no other person can do this. More input from FAQ Farmers: * I posses the ability of speaking 3 languages, im very patient person and very responsible for my action. * I'm very hard working and am quickly able to adapt and learn in different situations Alternate answer - You can only speak to what YOU can offer the company. Unless you know the strengths and weaknesses of all the other people who are interviewing for the position, you cannot speak to what you can offer that they cannot. You should start your response with something like "I'm sure other candidates who are being interviewed possess many strengths and can offer much to this company, however as I don't know these individuals, I can only speak to what I can offer this company", and then respond as suggested in the first answer. By preempting your response in this manner, it will let the interviewer know that you don't make potentially inaccruate assumptions and that you're a team player.
