The hurricane veered to west and passed south of the islands.
Estelle weakened to a tropical storm on July 23.
Early on July 25, Tropical Storm Estelle weakened to a depression.
The tropical cyclone weakened two days later.
Due to its rapid motion, Estelle kept pace with a large swell of water that it generated.
In combination with a high spring tide and peripheral winds generated by Estelle, huge waves crashed on the shores of the Big Island on the afternoon of July 22.
The high waves washed away five beachfront homes and severely damaged dozens of others in Vacation Land.
The total damage was around 2 million (1986 USD) dollars.
On Maui, waves washed away a dirt road on the eastern part of the island between Kipahulu and Kaupo.
After Estelle passed by the islands, moisture related to the tropical cyclone caused heavy rainfall in the Ka'u and Puna districts on the Big Island.
After Estelle dissipated, its moisture continued to spread over the islands, causing significant rainfall and thunderstorms over the archipelago.
The only deaths reported were two drownings on Oahu that occurred on July 23.
Hurricane Paine
A cloud mass became a tropical depression late on the September 27 roughly 200 miles southwest of Guatemala.
Paralleling the Mexican coastline, the system became a tropical storm late on the 29th, about 350 miles west-southwest of Acapulco.
It steadily intensified, peaking with winds of 100 mph.
This made Paine a Category 2 hurricane, Paine entered the Gulf of California on the evening of October 1.
The hurricane increased its motion, crossing the coast near San Jose (Boca del Rio) while still a hurricane.
The system moved rapidly across Mexico, bringing significant rains from west Texas across Oklahoma and Kansas into the Mid-Mississippi Valley.
Flooding was reported, with the worst flood begin  near Oklahoma City, the capital of the US State of Oklahoma.
Hurricane Roslyn
During the early afternoon of the 15th, ship reports indicated the formation of a tropical depression near 10.2N 92.7W.  The cyclone moved at a quick pace to the west- northwest south of a warm-core ridge.
Early on the morning of the 16th, Roslyn became a tropical storm.
By the morning of the October 17, it had developed into a hurricane south of Acapulco.
Roslyn began to recurve within a few hundred miles of Manzanillo.
Striking Mazatlán as a marginal hurricane on the 20th, the remains of the system caused heavy rains along the Middle Texas coast.
It later moved northward through the Mississippi Valley, spreading light to moderate rains
along its path and then started to spread rains across the Southern United States.

On August 3, a tropical depression organized in the open ocean.
Twelve hours later, it strengthened into Tropical Storm Georgette before weakening to a depression 6 hours later.
It then accelerated to a very rapid speed of 20-39 knots.
Due to its fast speed, Georgette could not maintain a closed circulation, and the tropical storm degenerated into a non-cyclonic disturbance.
The disturbance kept up its rapid forward motion, crossed the dateline, and entered the western Pacific.
Five days later, Georgette reformed into a depression in the western part of the Pacific Ocean.
As was customary, it kept its name.
It eventually strengthened into a minimal typhoon (a hurricane in the West Pacific).
It began to interact with a typohoon in the west Pacific, and thus cased it to dissipate.
1986 storm names
The following names were used for named storms that formed in the eastern Pacific in 1986.
No names were retired, so it was used again in the 1992 season.
This is the same list used for the 1980 season.
Storms were named Orlene, Paine, and Roslyn for the first time in 1986, although Orlene had been used on the old four-year lists.
No central Pacific names were used; the first name used would have been Oka.

The 1985 Pacific hurricane season was an  event in tropical cyclone meteorology.
It officially started on May 15, 1985 in the eastern Pacific, and on June 1, 1985 in the central Pacific, and lasted until November 30, 1985.
At the time, the 1985 season was the most active on record in the eastern north Pacific (breaking a short-lived record set in 1983), with 25 tropical cyclones forming.
Of those, 22 attained tropical storm intensity, 12 reaching hurricane intensity and 8 becoming major hurricanes by reaching Category 3 or higher on the Saffir-Simpson Scale.
In addition, three additional systems formed in the central north Pacific, of which one became a hurricane and another became a typhoon before re-crossing the international dateline.
Despite the activity, there were few notable systems this year.
The only cyclone to make landfall was Hurricane Waldo, which caused damage in Mexico.
Elsewhere, surf from Hurricane Pauline caused damage in Hawaii and either Pauline or the following system sank a sailing vessel.
Hurricane Pauline caused heavy surf along the Big Island, which washed debris up onto roads.
It threatened the islands enough to prompt a hurricane watch, which means winds of 74 mph or higher are possible during the next 36 hours.
However, the hurricane turned away.
Rick was the strongest storm of the season, and at the time had the second strongest winds recorded in a tropical cyclone in the Central Pacific.
It may also have contributed to the sailing vessel being overdue.
Hurricane Terry
Terry was a powerful major hurricane that formed by the 15th of September.
It became a major hurricane fours days later on the 19th, but it did not affect land while doing so.
It eventually dissipated due to hostile conditions on the 24th, without ever impacting land.
Hurricane Waldo
Tropical Depression Twenty Three-E formed from a disturbance on October 7.
In an environment over warm waters (86 °F), it rapidly intensified, reaching Tropical Storm intensity the same day it formed.
Waldo moved towards the Mexican coast.
Just after peaking as a Category 2 hurricane on the hurricane scale, Waldo made landfall southwest of Culiacán.
Waldo rapidly dissipated over land.
Major damage, but no deaths were reported in Mexico.
It was the season's lone landfall.
Hurricane Xina
The first recorded twenty-second storm of a season formed October 25.
It strengthened into Tropical Storm Xina early October 27.
Xina began to start tracing out a huge oblong loop beneath an anticyclone.
Xina peaked as a minimal major hurricane on October 29.
As it finished the loop and left the cover of the anticyclone, Xina started falling apart.
Cool waters took their toll on the cyclone, and Xina dissipated on November 5.
Had the list of names not been extended, Xina would have been named "Alpha" instead.
However, the anticipated exhaustion of the old list was averted, meaning that the east Pacific has never exhausted its list.
Xina stayed at sea, and no casualties or damages were reported.
1985 storm names
The following names were used for named storms that formed in the eastern Pacific in 1985.
No names were retired, so it was used again in the 1991 season.
The name "Dolores" was misspelled as "Delores" in 1991.
This is the same list used for the 1979 season, except for the added names.
Storms were named Kevin, Linda, Marty, Nora, Olaf, Pauline, Rick, Sandra, Terry, Vivian, Waldo, and Xina for the first time in 1985.
One name from the Central Pacific list was used – Nele.
It was the first usage for this name.
One storm, Typhoon Skip, formed in the central Pacific but did not receive a name until it reached the west Pacific, therefore only Nele was used from the central Pacific list.
Had the names not been added, this season would have been the first Pacific or Atlantic hurricane season to exceed the list, and had to have used a Greek letter named storm.
This would not occur until the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season, which saw an unprecedented 28 storms and 6 Greek names.

Coordination geometry is a way of showing how atoms are put in molecules.
Molecules can be arranged different ways.
They can be in a cube, a line, a triangle, a pyramid, or other shapes.
A triclinic crystal is shaped almost like a rectangle.
It is slightly bent, though.
Copper sulfate makes triclinic crystals.
It is the least symmetric (meaning that both sides are not very similar).
In the triclinic system, the crystal is described by vectors of unequal length, as in the orthorhombic system.
In crystallography, the crystal structure is how the atoms (or ions or molecules) are arranged in a crystalline material.
Crystals occur naturally from the way the chemical bonds of the atoms connect.
Symmetric repeating patterns occur in 3-D space in the crystal.
The crystal structure of a chemical is the shape of the crystal at the molecular level.
There are several shapes of crystals.
Sodium chloride is a cube.
Copper sulfate is triclinic.
Most things, even metals, have crystal structures.
Some crystals fit more atoms in them than others, and these crystals usually weigh more.
Aliens of the Deep is a 2005 documentary movie, directed in part by James Cameron and filmed in the IMAX 3D format.
It was produced by Walden Media and Buena Vista Pictures.
Cameron worked with NASA scientists to explore the Mid-Ocean Ridges, under water chains of mountains in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans that are home to some of the planet's more unusual forms of life.
Cameron joins up aboard the Russian research ship, "Akademik Mstislav Keldysh", with a group of NASA scientists, as well as some Russian marine biologists, to investigate ten hydrothermal vents in both the Atlantic and Pacific.
The vents have their own unique ecosystem, which support diverse organisms such as giant tube worms, swarms of blind white crabs, and vast amounts of shrimp which are capable of "seeing" water that is heated by the vents.
These creatures do not need sunlight like other organisms, and instead get their energy from the vents.
Because of this, the documentary suggests that this is what life beyond Earth might look like.
As some alien ecosystems are likely to be a lot harsher than a typical terrestrial ecosystem, these exotic vents provide an insight into some of the forms that alien life might take.
The documentary shows Cameron's passion for exploring the oceans, as well as his interest in extraterrestrial life.
It also shows the technology used to reach such depths.
The movie is similar to Cameron's earlier documentary, Ghosts of the Abyss (2003), which involves him journeying to the wreck of the RMS Titanic.
It too was filmed in the 3-D IMAX format.
A hazard is something that can be dangerous.
Fire, Explosives and Fuel are all examples of hazards.
Many chemicals can be a hazard.
There are ways to get rid of hazardous things.
There are different types of hazards; some can catch things on fire; some can burn skin; some can irritate the eyes, etc.
The term 'hazard' is used in driving instruction, and in some traffic-related laws.
It simply means 'something a motorist should notice and drive accordingly'.
For example, children playing on the pavement (U.S. = sidewalk; Austr.
= footpath) are a potential hazard.
If any go into the actual road, then they are a real hazard, and motorist should do whatever is safe.
Risk and Safety Statements are codes that show the hazards of certain chemicals.
There are certain R (risk) phrases and S (safety) phrases.
For example, R34 states that the chemical may cause burns.
S36 says to wear protective clothing.

'Garhwal Land ' () is a region.
It is in the state of Uttarakhand India.
Garhwal's name is taken from Garhs (or forts).
This is because this region had 52 forts belonging to local chiefs who ruled small areas near their forts.
People who belong to this region are known as Gharhwalis.
Now, this region is being looked onto as a tourist hub of India.
This land has the districts Tehri, Chamoli, Uttrakashi, Pauri, some parts of Dehradun, and other areas.
The history of Garhwal goes back to the dawn of Hindu civilization, but most of history of Garhwal is fairly unknown or not given any importance by historians.
Also, some facts known about this land are vague and taken from Garhwali folk songs and Hindu epics.
Most historians say that the name of Garhwal comes from the ancient regimes and rulers.
However, most of the facts are unknown, and the things that are known are very vague and unreliable.
MARODA is a very Important village of Pauri District.
It is only  from Devpryag which is a holy place for Hindus as it is the starting point of the Holy river Ganga.
Though the inhabitants of Maroda are well settlled in Delhi for their studies and Jobs but still they are very deeply attached with this village and the tradition and culture of the uttarakhand.
Religious Aspect
Garhwal is mostly known as the land of sacred Devi Devta (gods) because the holy river Ganges, Yamuna comes from here and Char Dhams (Holy Pilgrimage) Badrinath, Kedarnath, Gangotri and yamunotri are found here along with Panch Paryags (Lands where merging of Holy Rivers take place).
These Paryags are Deoparyag, Rudraparyag, Karanparyag, Nandparyag and Vishnuparyag.
There are also some Shaktipeeths like Dhari Devi, Mathiyana, Kunjapuri, Surkunda and Punch Badri Kedarnath, Madhya Maheswer, Tungh Nath, Rudra Nath, Kalpeshwer and Panch Badri Adi Badri, Vridha Badri, Bhavisya Badri, Yog Badri, Badri Vishal.
Garhwal is motherland of most of Gharwali people and language spoken by Garhwalis is also known as Garhwali.
Most of the Garwalis are villagers and depends upon agriculture.
Village in Garhwal are combine among some areas which is known as "Patti" for example Patti Bhillang may contain more than 30 villages.
Garhwal land is facing troubles of unemployment and therefore most Garhwali youngsters migrate to the cities.
Administration for education is fairly poor however some improvements are there but not so impressive as other states.
Health and medical services need to be improved and cultivation is totally depends upon rain and rainfall is not consistent.
The culture and dialect of Garhwal is different in different areas.
The culture and dialect of one area can be different from another area but an important part of the culture is Hinduism.
Hinduism is the soul of Garhwali culture.
Garhwali culture is influenced a lot by Epics and Devi Devta.
The Singapore's National Pledge was written by Sinnathamby Rajaratnam in 1966, not long after Singapore's Independence.
A draft was submitted to the then Prime minister Lee Kuan Yew, before he made it better and passed it to the Cabinet.
The pledge
These are the words of the pledge:
We, the citizens of Singapore, pledge ourselves as one united people, regardless of race, language or religion, to build a democratic society based on justice and equality so as to achieve happiness, prosperity and progress for our nation.

Fish pie is a savory pie that has fish in it.
It is normally eaten by British people, and made with white fish (cod, haddock, or halibut) in a white sauce.
Hard boiled eggs are sometimes added as well, and the pie is made in a deep dish.
The fish is not covered by a pie crust, but there are mashed potatos over it instead.
The pie is sometimes also called the "fisherman's pie" because it is similar to the shepherd's pie.

A boiled egg is an egg boiled in its shell.
This is a common way of cooking eggs.
If the shells are broken, it is called a poached egg.
There are two different types of boiled eggs: hard boiled eggs and soft-boiled eggs.
Hard-boiled eggs
Hard-boiled eggs are completely cooked.
The egg yolk is solid.
They can be eaten warm or cold.
Some dishes use them like egg salad.
They can be stored for a long time in the refrigerator.
Some machines called egg slicers can slice these easily.
Soft-boiled eggs
Soft-boiled eggs have firmly cooked eggwhites, while at the same time, the yolks are liquid.
They can have salmonella in them if you don't prepare them correctly.
In Europe, soft-boiled eggs are a traditional breakfast cousin, and you normally scoop them out of the shell and eat.
In Asia, the soft-boiled egg is cracked into a cup with soy sauce and black pepper.
To make the perfect soft boiled egg, bring the water up to a boil, then lower it to a rapid simmer.
Add the eggs to the pot, and then begin timing.
If you're just cooking one or two eggs, five minutes is perfect for a runny yolk, or cook as long as seven minutes for a more firmly set, but still spoonable, yolk.
The yolk is the yellow center of an egg.
It is only one cell.
It is commonly seen in fried eggs.
When it is mixed with the whites, it makes scrambled eggs.
It is sometimes used in cooking.
It is much higher in calories than the egg white.
It has fat-soluble vitamins in it.
Some eggs have two egg yolks in them.
The egg white, also known as albumen, is the clear liquid part of the egg.
The yellow part is called the egg yolk.
The egg white holds the egg yolk in place.
Most of the egg white is water.
It is low in calories.
They are high in protein.
They can be whipped into a foam.
The egg white foam is used to make many things like mousse and meringue.
They are also used in baking.
Spanakopita is a Greek savory pastry, a type of spinach pie.
It is filled with spinach, feta cheese, eggs, onions, and seasoning.
This filling is wrapped in a pastry with olive oil.
It is normally eaten as a snack.

The Old Schwamb Mill is the oldest continuously operating mill site in the United States.
There has been a mill operating at this site since c.1650.
The current mill is a 19th-century woodworking factory.
The mill was built in 1861, and purchased by brothers Charles and Frederick Schwamb in 1864 for the manufacture of picture frames.
It remained within the family's ownership and continued to operate, more or less unchanged in both equipment and processes, until 1969.
Two wings were added during this time, however: one by 1881, and the other between that date and 1898.
The mill still contains operational equipment and four preserved power systems.

The Republic of Maryland (also known as the Independent State of Maryland) was a small nation of African Americans from 1854 to 1857.
It was in Africa.
After this, it joined what is now Liberia.
The area was first settled in 1834<ref name="Repository p.42">[https://books.google.com/books?id=jx8SAAAAIAAJ&pg=PA42&lpg=PA42 The African Repository, Volume 14, p.42.]
Retrieved March 13, 2010</ref> by freed African-American slaves and African-Americans who were born free.
Most of them were from the U.S. state of Maryland, and were there under the authority of the Maryland State Colonization Society.
In 1838, other African-American settlements were joined to the Commonwealth of Liberia, which said that it was independent and not a part of Liberia in 1847.
The Maryland in Liberia colony remained apart, as the state colonization society did not want anyone else to be able to trade goods.
On 2 February 1841, Maryland-in-Africa became the State of Maryland.
The state said that it was independent on 29 May 1854, and that it would be called Maryland in Liberia with its capital at Harper.
In  December 1831, the Maryland state legislature said that it would give US$10,000 for 26 years to take free blacks and former slaves from the United States to Africa, and the Maryland State Colonization Society was started for this purpose.
Declaration of Independence, and annexation by Liberia
On 29 May 1854 The State of Maryland declared its independence, naming itself Maryland in Liberia (it was also known as the Republic of Maryland), with its capital at Harper, Liberia.
It held the land along the coast between the Grand Cess and San Pedro Rivers.
However, it would last just three years as its own country.
Soon afterwards, local tribes, including the Grebo and the Kru, attacked the State of Maryland.
Unable to defend itself, Maryland asked Liberia, its more powerful neighbor, for help.
President Roberts sent military help, and an alliance of Marylanders and Liberian militia troops stopped the local tribesmen.
However, it was now clear that the Republic of Maryland could not survive on its own, and 18 March 1857 Maryland was added by Liberia, and became known as Maryland County.

The Year of the Four Emperors was a year in the history of the Roman Empire, AD 69, in which four emperors ruled in a remarkable turnover.
The four emperors were  Galba, Otho, Vitellius, and Vespasian.
The suicide of emperor Nero, in 68, was followed by a brief period of civil war, the first Roman civil war since Mark Antony's death in 30 BC.
Between June of 68 and December of 69, Rome witnessed the successive rise and fall of Galba, Otho and Vitellius until the final accession of Vespasian, the first ruler of the Flavian Dynasty.
This was an example of the political disturbances which occurred in the history of the  Roman Empire.
The military and political anarchy created by this civil war had serious repercussions, such as the outbreak of the Batavian rebellion.
The Jewish Revolt was already ongoing.
Nero to Galba
By June of 68, the Senate took the initiative to rid itself of Nero, declaring him a public enemy and Galba emperor.
The Praetorian Guard were bribed to betray Nero, and Nero committed suicide.
Galba was recognized as emperor and welcomed into the city at the head of his legions
Galba did not remain popular for long.
On his march to Rome, he either destroyed or took enormous fines from towns that did not accept him immediately.
In Rome, Galba cancelled all the reforms of Nero, including benefits for many important persons.
The army was not happy either.
After his safe arrival in Rome, Galba refused to pay the rewards he had promised to soldiers who had supported him.
The Roman treasury was indeed in a bad way after Nero's extravagances, but Galba did not handle the situation well.
Like Nero, Galba had a fear of conspirators and executed many senators and equites without trial.
Moreover, in the start of the civil year of 69 on January 1, the legions of Germania Inferior refused to swear allegiance and obedience to the new emperor.
On the following day, the legions acclaimed Vitellius, their governor, as emperor.
Marcus Salvius Otho bribed the Praetorian Guard, already very unhappy with the emperor, to his side.
When Galba heard about the coup d'état he went to the streets in an attempt to normalize the situation.
It proved a mistake, because he could attract no supporters.
Shortly afterwards, the Praetorian Guard killed him in the Forum.
Otho to Vitellius
Otho was recognized as emperor by the Senate that same day.
The new emperor was saluted with relief.
Although ambitious and greedy, Otho did not have a record for tyranny or cruelty and was expected to be a fair emperor.
However, trouble in the form of Vitellius was marching down on Italy from Germany.
Vitellius had behind him the finest elite legions of the empire, composed of veterans of the Germanic Wars.
These would prove to be his best arguments to gain power.
Otho was not keen to begin another civil war and sent emissaries to propose a peace and inviting Vitellius to be his son-in-law.
It was too late to reason; Vitellius' generals had half of his army heading to Italy.
After a series of minor victories, Otho was defeated in the Battle of Bedriacum.
Rather than flee and attempt a counter-attack, Otho decided to put an end to the anarchy and committed suicide.
He had been emperor for a little more than three months.
Vitellius to Vespasian
On the news of Otho's suicide, Vitellius was recognised as emperor by the Senate.
Given this recognition, Vitellius set out for Rome.
He faced problems from the start of his reign.
The city was left very skeptical when Vitellius chose a day of bad auspices (according to Roman superstition) to accept the office of Pontifex Maximus.
Events would seemingly prove them right.
With the throne tightly secured, Vitellius engaged in a series of feasts, banquets and triumphal parades that drove the imperial treasury close to bankruptcy.
Debts were quickly accrued and money-lenders started to demand repayment.
Vitellius showed his violent nature by ordering the torture and execution of those who dared to make such demands.
Vitellius took the step of killing citizens who named him as their heir, often together with any co-heirs.
Moreover, he engaged in a pursuit of every possible rival, inviting them to the palace with promises of power only to have them assassinated.
Vespasian had been given a special command in Judaea by Nero in 67 with the task of putting down the Great Jewish Revolt.
He gained the support of the governor of Syria, Gaius Licinius Mucianus.
A strong force drawn from the Judaean and Syrian legions marched on Rome under the command of Mucianus.
Vespasian himself travelled to Alexandria where he had been acclaimed Emperor on July 1, thereby gaining control of the vital grain supplies from Egypt.
Vespasian's son Titus remained in Judaea to deal with the Jewish rebellion.
Before the eastern legions could reach Rome, the Danubian legions of the provinces of Raetia and Moesia also acclaimed Vespasian as Emperor in August, and led by Marcus Antonius Primus invaded Italy.
In October, the forces led by Primus won a crushing victory over Vitellius' army at the Second Battle of Bedriacum.
Surrounded by enemies, Vitellius made a last attempt to win the city to his side, distributing bribes and promises of power where needed.
The Danube army was now very near Rome.
Vitellius went into hiding and prepared to flee, but decided on a last visit to the palace.
There he was caught by Vespasian's men and killed.
In seizing the capital, they burned down the temple of Jupiter.
The Senate acknowledged Vespasian as emperor on the following day.
It was 21 December 69, the year that had begun with Galba on the throne.
April – Servius Sulpicius Galba, governor of Hispania Tarraconensis, and Vindex, governor of Gallia Lugdunensis rebel against Nero
May – The Rhine legions defeat and kill Vindex in Gaul
