I had to find this kind of thing out once and found a navy site at

http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/tzones.html

that has a lot of places(well most of the big ones at least :)

It has the following entry

USA Hawaii: -10 hours 
USA Alaska: -9 hours (Local summer -8 hours)
Australia New South Wales: +10 hours (Local summer +11 hours)

Hope this helps :)

Cheers,
Ciaran
