Radio Script for Maui TV News on KAOI Radio - December 1, 2009

FROM THE VISIONARY RADIO NEWS CENTER, I'M JEFF KING WITH MAUI TV NEWS.

NEXT IN LINE FOR FURLOUGHS - THE STATE'S PUBLIC LIBRARIES. TODAY THE HAWAII GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES ASSOCIATION - HGEA - ANNOUNCED THAT STATE LIBRARIES WILL CLOSE FOR 15 DAYS TO HELP MEET THE ANTICIPATED BUDGET SHORTFALLS. THE CLOSURE DAYS ARE ON WEDNESDAYS BEGINNING DECEMBER 16TH. IN ADDITION SIX STATE LIBRARY BRANCHES - INCLUDING MAKAWAO HERE ON MAUI WILL CLOSE FOR ADDITIONAL FURLOUGH DAYS ON THURSDAYS IN MARCH, APRIL AND MAY.

AND IT'S MAYBE A SMALL GLIMMER OF GOOD NEWS THAT THE WORST MAY BE BEHIND US, BUT THE NUMBER OF BANKRUPTCY FILINGS IN NOVEMBER ACROSS THE STATE WAS THE LOWEST SINCE JANUARY OF THIS YEAR. THERE WERE 55 FEWER FILINGS IN NOVEMBER THAN THERE WERE IN OCTOBER - AND ALL COUNTIES EXPERIENCED FEWER BANKRUPTCY FILINGS.

ISLAND WEATHER, TONIGHT IT'S A "BLUE MOON,' THE PHENOMENON THAT OCCURS WHEN THERE ARE TWO FULL MONS IN ONE MONTH. THE MOON WILL BE FULL TONIGHT AND AGAIN ON DECEMBER 31ST. MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES TONIGHT EXPECT LOWS IN THE LOW 60S. TOMORROW, EXPECT MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES WITH HIGHS IN THE MID 80S.
