Õlohe Solomon Kaihewalu in an instructor of Lua Hâlau O Kaihewalu, a Hawaiian martial art taught in his family. He brought the sport public in the 1960s, a controversial act, as previously the martial art had not been taught to outsiders.
Biography
Early life and education
Born December 2, 1935, Olohe Solomon Kaihewalu began his training when he was 3-years-old. 'Õlohe's father taught him the fundamentals; step forward with the heel, and step backward with the ball of the foot. This was the way of the Koa (warrior) who walks silently in order to not alert his opponent - similar to the way an American Indian warrior walks silently.
Kaihewaluwas taught hula (Ku'i Moloka'i) which is a very powerful dance form that teaches grace, agility and connectivity. It has a basis for lua in movement and awareness of body and self. Kaihewalu took many of his father’s teachings and refined them for a modern world. He saw that there was a need and place for these ancient art forms and risked all to bring what had been a secret family martial art form into the world. The action proved controversial.
Establishing a Place for Lua
Kaihewalu opened his first school in 1963 in the city of Orange, CA. Many Hawaiians objected to this and sought to silence Kaihewalu.
According to Olohe: “I listened to their opinions and their personal judgments toward me. I just wanted to bring our Lua, The Hawai'ian Art Of Self Defense, out to the world. I did not want to see this great Art die and become just a story in our history books. Bringing this beautiful Ancient Hawai'ian Martial Art out to the world was not easy. I never thought in my lifetime that this was going to be as tough as it turned out to be. I watched how I walked with this Art Of Lua. I made sure I did not step on anyone and hurt them as far as our Hawai'ian Martial Art was concerned.”
Today's Kaihewalu Lua
Today, Olohe’s lua teachings are disseminated to men, women and children who seek a way of self-defense that reflects both the man-made and natural world in the spirit of the Hawaiian nation.
Lua, as taught by Olohe and his Kamu (similar to black belt title in Asian systems.) Men and women like Ron Burns, David Dye, Walter Manuia, Iopeka Ali'i Miner and Michelle Manu carry forth his family’s teachings.
The teaching of Lua, an historic and deeply studied martial art, is no longer “kapu” (forbidden) in part because of Olohe's struggles.

The Critical Hour is a medical reality TV show about real medical emergencies starring Wendy Neal, RN. Similar in format to the TV show COPS, it is shown in the United States by the Discovery Communications's Discovery Health Channel network.
The name "Critical Hour" refers to the fact that in many cases, such as heart attacks, automobile accidents, diabetic comas, overdoses, and other emergencies, medical care for patients during the first hour after the emergency plays a critical role in the patient's outcome, because survival rate for a trauma patient goes down significantly if initial care is not given within the first hour. For this reason, the initial 60 minutes following a traumatic incident is often called the critical hour in emergency medicine parlance. It is more commonly known as the "Golden Hour Concept".
The show first aired in 2003. Early episodes of the series took place in Columbus, Ohio (Grant Medical Center), New Orleans, Louisiana (Charity Hospital), and Oklahoma City, Oklahoma (OU Medical Center), among other places. A new set of episodes was shot in 2004 and 2005, centered on two cities and three trauma centers: Baltimore, Maryland (University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center) and Toronto, Ontario, Canada (Sunnybrook and Women's College Health Sciences Centre; Toronto St. Michael's Hospital). The former shows were a decidedly different format, with a running timeclock on the patients as they made their way through the initial entrance into the trauma system (and then updates to their progress as the episode went on), while the latter episodes tend to transition between patients' stories, following a smaller set of patient stories from beginning to end throughout the episode. A standalone show, Chopper Rescue, a documentary about flight paramedics in Los Angeles, California, was added to the rotation under the "Critical Hour" umbrella title in 2005. Production continued on the show in 2006, this time centered exclusively on the two Toronto-area hospitals, though the Baltimore Shock Trauma episodes continue to air in reruns periodically.
Like most traumatic injuries in real life, most stories featured on the show end in a "save", but some do not, clearly demonstrating that as remarkable as Trauma Medicine is today, it still can't save everyone from everything.
