Lights Out on Fantasy Island

Much of Oahu lost power for many hours, including the palatial vacation rental of Barack Obama:
President-elect Barack Obama's Hawaiian vacation was darkened for 11 hours Friday night and early Saturday when a power outage enveloped the island of Oahu.

Obama, wife Michelle, and daughters Malia and Sasha are staying in a $9 million, five-bedroom oceanfront house near downtown Honolulu. Power to the compound went out around 7 p.m. Friday and was restored just before 6 a.m. Saturday, about the time as that of the neighbors, Obama spokesman Ben LaBolt said.

As I understand it operations at the vacation abode continued without interruption. Everyone was able to get along nicely just by the glow from Obama's halo.
