SURGEON GENERAL'S WARNING: Quitting Smoking Now Greatly Reduces Serious Risks to Your Health.

A

Letters Divisive reslrictions Although sad, the article "Unlanded Gentry" (Nov. 3) is not surprising given the Department of Hawaiian Homelands' history, both recent and back to the beginning of the Hawai­ian Homelands program. Although mentioned only in one quotation, the Hawaiian Homelands program was established to return Hawaiians to the land, The lands on which the homelands reside are Crown and government lands, the so-called

·"ceded" lands that were illegally transferred to the United States un­der the Newlands Resolution, as ac­knowledged in the U.S. Apology Resolution of 1993. The testimony of Prince Kiihio, Territorial Sen. Wise, and Rep. Jarrett clearly said that the program was established for the rehabilitation of Hawaiians, par­ticularly in the context of the rela­tionship of Hawaiians to the land. Since that time, as "Broken Trust" and extensive litigation has estab­lished (both in state courts and the Individual Claims Review Panel), the territory and subsequently the state have breached the trust estab­lished by the Hawaiian Homelands

Act. These breaches have ranged from leasing homelands to non-ben­eficiaries to establishing regulations and policies that have excluded valid beneficiaries from acquiring leases.

The policies of the current admin­istration must be placed in this con­text. The move to suburbanize the homelands began ·under Hoaliku Drake in the Waihe'e administra­tion, and has continued under the Cayetano and Lingle administra­tions. These policies have resulted in the exclusions of hundreds of beneficiaries from obtaining leases because of the inability . to qualify for mortgages. For many new proj­ects, only a relatively fortunate few become lessees. The remainder re­turn to the list. Nowhere in the Act is it required that otherwise qualified beneficiaries live in planned com­munities, nor that they adhere to as­sociation rules imposed as a second­ary condition to the possible acqui­sition of a lease under the "rent-to­own" program. The conditions im­posed by the "rent-to-own" program . further divide the community.

Instead of repeating a sad history of excluding qualified beneficiaries from the land, perhaps the DHHL, HHC and Mr. Kane will look to the original purpose of the program, and return Hawaiians to the land.

Double vision I'm puzzled by Kawehi Haug's Honolulu Diary article ("Soft Resis­tance," Nov. 3) about Dick Cheney's Halloween appearance at the Con­vention Center. The Republican Par­ty may have tried to 1'get 10,000" but Haug's statement, "barely missed her [the Governor's] projection"­which depended solely on ''Lingle's aides" estimate of "9,000 cheering, flagwaving supporters" was way over the top. I was across the street from 6:30PM. Hell, the Blaisdell Are­na holds 8,800 and there was no such crowd there for Dick Cheney.

And then there are Haug' s dis­paraging quotes and remarks about we "anti Bush folks" not being "able to tum out a protesting crowd big enough to even be heard in the en­trance to the center." Was Haug even at the right party?

Several of us who were there esti­mate that 500 turned out to protest. Folks came and went during the five hours; young, old, veterans, union members, students, Hawaiians, blacks, Chinese, Filipinos, haoles, gays and seniors on canes holding signs. Creative political costumes and signs abounded. It was the best Hal­loween party in town. When people left the barricades put up to keep us from storming the fort, others stepped up to fill the gap. Haug also failed to mention the approximately 30 cops stationed every 10 feet down Atkin­son to control the protestors. I apolo­gize questioning Haug's hearing as she may be deaf as well as blind­because it was a loud, colorful, play­fully raucous affair. Of course Haug could be a Republican reporting on her brethren, but that would be strange considering the Weekly's pro­gressive reputation. Anyway, our guy won Hawai'i by 37,507 votes.

It's hard to admit, but I must agree with your story on the low turnout for the Cheney protest. I, too, stood on the comer there and was aston­ished by how few people turned up to protest. In the last three years there have been many protests that were impressive and made a state­ment, the one on Halloween night was not such a protest. When Bush came last year, hundreds and hun­dreds of people turned up to show him what we thought of him. It was a good night in Honolulu. Our voices were loud and clear, it's a pity we couldn't have done the same for Cheney. At least the protest wasn't an indication of how Hawai 'i votes.

A.E. Johnston 'Aiea

Thank you for the realistic report on the Cheney protest. Shame on us for not doing a better job. I was there and when I saw the small crowd, I knew I should have done more to get people there. This should be a wake­up call for us. We have four more years of a president who has done all he can to divide our country and hurt the rest of the world. We can't be­come complacent now. Thanks for helping us stay on target. It's re­freshing that you tell how it is in­stead of what people want to hear.

Hawai 'i has the highest life ex­pectancy rate in the nation, which means that the over-65 crowd increases twice as fast as that of the national average. As this sector of the state popula­tion grows, so does the need for options to help the elderly main­tain an independent and digni­fied life. Many of these people

don't have anyone to help them with even the simplest housekeeping chores or grocery shopping.

In 1989, Dr. Shimeji Kanazawa, a member of the Mo 'ili 'ili Hongwanji Mission, founded Project Dana, a non-profit caregiving organization.

The help-the-elderly concept isn't revolutionary, but Project Dana's coalition is: 30 churches and temples throughout the state including Makiki Christian, St. Mark's Episcopal, and Jikoen Hongwanji, in addition to Mo 'ili 'ili Hongwanji. "Dana" is Sanskrit for "generos­ity," something that volunteers such as Blayne Higa (pictured, left) offer to clients like Sadako Kawamo­to.

This Saturday, Project Dana will celebrate its 15th Anniversary with "A Tribute to Our Volunteers." The luncheon at the Hale Koa Hotel is a benefit for the peo­ple who do the actual the caregiving.

"The growth of the project was so rapid because the need is so great," says Project Dana coordinator Rose Nakamura.

Wrangling the involvement of the wide array of churches of wildy different faiths, wasn't a problem. "I think that all faiths are working towards a common cause of providing assistance. It's a universal need in the community," says Nakamura.

Ironically, even though so many people could use Dana's help, with the exception of funding the hardest part of fulfilling the organization's mission may actual­ly be finding clients.

"Most families hesitate to call," says Nakamura. "If [the individuals] are encouraged to call, or even the chil­dren ... many think it's a personal problem when they be­come disabled and homebound. Sometimes it's a cultur­al tradition of keeping it private. They think, 'I don't need help, I can manage.' The elderly are so stubborn. They think they can do it on their own, but they can ben­efit from our services. Many suffer quietly. We see it all the time."

To help, call 945-3736. -Ryan Senaga

Left hand plan Gov. Linda Lingle had three goals for this election: de­liver Hawai 'i's four electoral votes for W., gain Repub­lican seats in the state House, and elect pro-decentraliza­tion candidates to the Board of Education (BOE). She failed on all counts. Six Republicans lost seats in the House and only one newcomer unseated an incumbent. Kerry-Edwards trounced Bush-Cheney on O'ahu and the neighbor islands. In addition, all five of the candi­dates Lingle personally endorsed for the BOE lost.

Lingle's scoreless season has left Hawai'i Democrats hopeful and they're already making plans for a repeat victory in the 2006 U.S. Senate and gubernatorial races.

Despite a national loss, local Dems are charged up about the supporters, old and new, who won the state for Kerry-Edwards despite predictions that Hawai 'i might emerge as a swing-state.

Donalyn Dela Cruz, communications director for the Hawai'i Democratic Party, is still aglow after the four­month push to reach out to people with a slew of events such as a recent slam competition. Now she wants them to take the next step: join the party and become more in­volved.

As state director for the Hawai 'i Democratic Nation­al Committee, Jadine Neilson led the local Kerry-Ed­wards effort. She is sure that the get-out-the-vote effort they ran-which included making more than 100,000 person-to-person calls-contributed to their victory. Neilson plans to build a list of folks who can be count­ed on the next time around.

Former Lt. Gov. Mazie Hirono mustered support by heading up Hawai'i Women for Kerry-Edwards. She plans to expand and morph the group (which includes men) into a body of supporters able to come out for lo­cal and national democratic candidates.

Says Hirono: "The world is changed by the people who show up." -Jonathan Likeke Scheuer

Flood, sweat and tears Dr. Rebecca Knuth knows a few things about destruc­tion. An associate professor and current chair of UH-Manoa's Library and Information Sciences (LIS) program, Dr. Knuth's field of academic interest covers a wide swath, from children's and young adult materials to literacy, public libraries and international librarian­ship. But these days she is best known for her writings on the destruction of books and libraries as an act of war: She's currently midway through her second book on the subject, and is largely responsible for bringing the term "libricide" into common English usage. (Go ahead: Google it.)

As such, one had to wonder how she would react to the fact that UH' s LIS facilities were destroyed on Oct. 30, when some eight feet of muddy water thundered through the tidy collection of classrooms, computer labs, study lounges and faculty offices in the basement of Hamilton Library.

"I was surprised at the incredible amount of damage the water could do in a few minutes, but it didn't shake me," she says, one week after the sudden onslaught forced students enrolled in a course on library manage­ment to throw a stool through a window and climb out just ahead of the raging waters.

"The only thing that ultimately shook me," says Knuth, "was that we could have lost any of our students, which was a very real possibility. But when the destruc­tion is so total, it's a bit different than when you can ac­tually salvage something: You just have to accept that it's all gone."

And make no mistake, it's all gone: On Nov. 2, Knuth allowed a brief glimpse at what could safely be seen of the facilities. Where once there were faculty offices, there were twisted and buckled walls. Whole sections of the ceiling had collapsed and the floor was a muddy mache of loose paper, books, computer com­ponents and assorted office supplies. With the excep­tion of several administrative files for active students, a vase and a few pieces of artwork, the area was deemed a total loss. ·

Things weren't any better in the rest of the basement, which also held the library's collection services staff, government- documents and map collections-among

- other materials, these two collections alone "included more than 1 million print items and over 220,000 maps and aerial photographs. Volunteers have been working tirelessly to salvage what they can (see Rear Window, page 31).

"We're guessing that of the print material, we have been able to save maybe five percent," wrote Associate University Librarian Jean Ehrhorn in an e-mail. "Many of the older government documents are out of print and not replaceable. Similarly, many of the aerial photographs were the last known set available." No monetary value has yet been set for these losses, and while all potentially salvageable materials are now stored in portable freezers to guard against further de­struction by mold, no one can say for sure how long restoration will take-behind the scenes, some staff have been speaking in terms of years.

And while Ehrhorn estimates that it will be "many, many months" before Hamilton Library will be com­pletely reopened to the public, she says a paging system for materials housed on the library's upper floors should be in operation this week, with limited access to the re­cently completed five-story addition beginning in "the next few weeks." --Stu Dawrs

wo young girls walk up wide, white-sand Hon­okanai'a beach, each carrying a freshly speared fish. They take the catch to the open-

air kitchen, which is equipped with two refrigerators and.a gas stove. Under a beach canopy, women wrapped in pareo and men wearing malo lounge on in­flatable mattresses, others sit in a circle practicing an oli.

The scene makes Stanton Enomoto's words sound surreal. "The area that we're in was one of the most heavily impacted areas from the naval gunnery offshore. I remember months and months of cleanup where the navy was scouring the coast trying to recov­er tons and tons of ordnance," he said. Enomoto is the former exec­utive director of the Kaho'olawe Island Reserve Commission (KIRC), and he is on the island for a reunion of "early warriors" -the men and women who occu­pied Kaho'olawe in the 1970s and '80s-and canoe voyagers.

From Oct. 22 to 24, the island was a who's who of Hawaiian activism and culture. On Fri­

day, as the almost 200 people awaited the arrival of the canoes Hokule 'a, Hokualaka 'i and Makali'i, veterans reminisced, while younger generations swam and played on the beach. Buzzing from person to person like hungry bees was a handful of hungry journalists.

Dr. Noa Emmett Aluli, still damp from a swim, greeted them. "It's our birthday. They said it couldn't be done!" he exclaimed. He, Colette Machado and Enomoto talked about the island's recent history.

The Navy stopped using Kaho'olawe as a dart board in 1994, and agreed to clean up 100 percent of the island's surface, and 30 percent of the subsurface (about four feet below ground) within the next decade, using $400 million approved by Con­gress. The Navy pulled out last April with unmet promises.

"They did a surface sweep of about 70 percent of the island and about 9 percent of the sub­surface has been cleaned," said Enomoto. According to the agreement, at the end of 10 years, "the whistle blows and the Navy leaves, finished or not, and that's

what happened," said Enomoto. Still, he added, 70 percent of

the island is 20,000 acres. "That's more land than any of us can imagine." The KIRC has written a management plan maximizing use of the areas that are safe.

"This will be a piko of the cul­ture," said Aluli, who was part of the first group of protest occupiers to set foot on the island on Jan. 7, 1976. The Protect Kaho'olawe 'Ohana sent people to the island as human shields to protect the land and raise public awareness of the situation. Aluli is now medical executive director at Moloka'i General Hospital and a KIRC commissioner. "This will be the place where culture will be seeded and go out. Young kids can come to this island and learn how to feel more Hawaiian and fish and share and bring their ex­periences to their communities. The important thing is there will never be a golf course here."

The germination has already started. Kaimiloa DeLeon is the daughter of Earl DeLeon, who occupied the island in 1977 and 1978. "It's my first time here. I'm here to get knowledge," she said.

Malama Kaho'olawe The Protect Kaho'olawe 'Ohana leads work trips to restore the island. You pay for your own transportation to Maui, and need to commit four days and lots of sweat.

OHA trustee and KIRC com­missioner Machado talks about the early warriors who dodged maneu­vers for 31 days on Kaho'olawe. "That's taking it to a higher level. But the younger generation has no inkling of what was sacrificed, the suffering."

Asked if she had thought she would ever again be on the island, Machado said, "Never thought," her voice breaking. "We can't even get the fricken Akaka Bill passed. Never in my life. Never."

And she underscores that the victory has earned Hawaiians, "a big kuleana. It's wonderful, but at the same time it's a difficult

responsibility." "There's a lot of work ahead,"

agrees Enomoto. With fishing grounds and more than 2,500 archeological features, Kaho'olawe is richer ¢.an its eroded, red­scarred skin lets on. But people are all too aware that the fight isn't over. Bart Dame brought up the inevitable: "There is a victory here. But the military has given, what, 70 percent cleaned up. That's 20,000 acres. At the same time they're seizing 23,000 more acres on the Big Island."

"I will sit in front of a Stryker," vowed Maxine Kahaillelio of Hawai'i island, a 1977 occupier.

raditions and eras mix-people snacked on minibags of Doritos while men prepared an imu. A bunch of mani­ni banana, thick as zuc­

chini, hung on a tree as Charlie Maxwell talked on a cell phone. Joyce Kainoa, who spent five days on Kaho'olawe in 1978, said, "I'm still overwhelmed-get elec­tricity, get TV, get hot water."

Shawn Kaui Hill, a.k.a. come­dian Bu La'ia, used to work on Kaho'olawe as a geophysicist's assistant looking for subterranean bombs. "One island back--can't wait until we get the other seven," he says. "We need to continue to fight for our independence. But to do that we need to get control of our resources."

But in the meantime, the show must go on: "This is my new part­ner right here," he said, introduc­ing Shannon Helm Carvalho, who played Wai'anae Man in the local­ly made film Amasian: The Amaz­ing Asian. He also happens to be the son of Moloka'i community leader Stacy Helm Carvalho and the nephew of George Helm, the Hawaiian activist who, with Kimo Mitchell, died attempting to reach Kaho'olawe by surfboard.

"After my uncle was lost, it was something that wasn't really talked about in our family, 'cause painful," said Carvalho, who is the dietician ::\t Kalaupapa. "But I was curious, I like know what went on. It's my first time to touch this place. I've had oppor­tunities but I wasn't ready."

Earl DeLeon, a red pareo wrapped around his waist and a stone amulet hanging around his neck, talks about his 1978 trip to the island, which included a Time magazine reporter. The Big Island builder joined the Protect Kaho'olawe 'Ohana (PKO) after he heard about George Helm's disappearance. "Why was this bunch of Hawaiians fighting for a small island?" He was arrested and remembered, "When we were in the helicopter, I really thought they were going to throw us out." The experience changed him. "After that, I knew what my pur­pose was-to get the word out."

What did it feel like to see all these people on the island 27 years later? "It brings tears to my eyes," he said, and it did. He put his mirrored sunglasses on. "Everything we fought for ... everybody says thank you so

24,000-acre expansion Sebastian Blanco

fter more than two years of repeated attempts to schedule a tour of the mili­tary's Pohakuloa Training Area (PT A) on Hawai'i, activists were finally

allowed to visit the site on Oct. 23. As the belligerati from all over

the islands made their way from Kurtistown to Mauna Kea State Park, along the road, on lava floes, we saw enormous construc­tion equipment, oversized dump trucks with tires that dwarf a large person, signs explaining siren warning signals in the blasting area. On the horizon stood the immoveable peaks.

A tour of Pohakuloa was first scheduled back in September 2002, but the Army cancelled it because of the vocal anti-military stance of some of the people on the roster. Two years later, many of the same names were on the list of attendees, and their goal remained the same: to voice op­position to the U.S. Army's plans to expand the 109,000-acre PTA by about 24,000 acres, along with the conversion of the 2nd Brigade, 25th Infantry Division (light) to a Stryker Brigade Combat Team. The transition, shepherded through the Senate Appropriations Committee in part by Sen. Daniel Inouye, will bring about 300 of the eight-

The Polynesian Voyaging Soci­ety and the Protect Kaho'olawe 'Ohana were created in 1976. Where PVS was strictly cultural and PKO political, the two will now work together on the island. Kaho'olawe was once a naviga­tional center-it was also known as Kanaloa, the Hawaiian deity of navigation and the ocean. Lae o Kealaikahiki, visible from Hon­okanai'a beach, is an outcropping ofrocks. From there, both hori­zons, as well as the North Star and the Southern Cross can be seen.

Everyone knew that at the very

dedicated-the first step in creat­ing a navigational training center.

At about 4PM, the canoes an­chored in the bay, everyone lines up on the beach, chanting to a chorus of pu, or conch shells. Pi­ailug takes a seat next to Eddie Ka'ana'ana on the beach.

same moment, activists were on Kaho'olawe for a cultural reunion. People were visibly tense. Shannon Collier of O'ahu took pictures of a naked tree.

"I feel like it's representative of the result of military occupation of Hawai'i. That's what they leave us-barren lands," she said. Her husband, Keli'i, said that PTA Commanding Officer Lt. Col. Frederick Clarke's ban on video and audio recording "reinforces a feeling I already have about the U.S. military and their relationship with the 'aina, Native Hawaiians and the larger population that calls Hawai'i home. That feeling is

"IT WAS THE PEOPLE

ONE OF THE THINGS I've learned from the struggle is it takes more than kanaka maoli. It takes all of us who love Hawai'i, who believe that milita­rization is not good for all living things. Kaho'olawe will set an example for the next generation that it can be done." • Soli Niheu, early warrior

WHEN I GOT INVOLVED, Richard Sawyer and Walter Ritte had just been sen­tenced to six months in jail. That was a heavy s~nc-

tion for the equivalent of going to a base uninvited. About that time they were also clearly stating that anybody who helped any­body get to the island was going to lose their boats, helicopters, airplanes. Kaho'olawe was the last piece of property [the Navy] would ever give up because they didn't have another place to do this kind of training. It took people risking their lives and taking them head on to get them to relent:'

. behind us that counted. I had to gather my family. Talk story and tell them I'm going to Kaho'olawe. And they said, 'What for Mom? That's a deserted island. There's nothing there: But . that's not the point. Em­mett them, they said you folks are bound to get ar­rested. And we were. When we went home, the people who supported us were there. That's the motivatio1,1; of winning. It's the people in back of you. Those are the people who worked harcr' • Maxine KahaOlelio, early warrior • Eric Seitz, lawyer

'they cannot be trusted."' As soon as we boarded the bus,

McElroy said, "Col. Clarke does not want any video shot on the installation," he said. "We do consider this our home, and please respect our wishes on that." Keli'i rolled not just his eyes, but his entire head.

The military has been using PT A for target practice since 1956. The first recorded use of the land in PT A by Hawaiians dates back to about 300AD.

MilitalJ talk Lt. Col. Clarke made his presen­tation in the impersonal Theater T-91, right inside the main gate. American flag streamers hung above the stage. Although there was coffee in a stainless steel pot, the mood was not friendly.

Clarke said he wanted to make the group "familiar with our mis­sion, why we're here. I also want to make you familiar with our make­up, because there is a lot of miscon­ceptions about the military." That was as far as he got before Kyle Ka­jihiro, of the American Friends Ser­vice Committee, interrupted with a question about the video ban.

"This is about an open discus­sion, the sharing of information and knowledge," Clarke said. "I have no hidden agenda other than to make you familiar with PT A and share information. The other thing was I wanted to get every­body focused and talking to each other instead of maybe doing a documentary or film, for \Yhatever

purpose. Sometimes when I have distractions going on, I start losing focus as to why I'm here."

Jim Albertini, head of the non­profit Malu 'Aina peace center and farm, pointed out that it was a contradiction for Clarke to say the meeting was about openness while forbidding group members to take video images of the installation to share with their communities.

"You are making it very diffi­cult right from the start," said Albertini.

The military defined the visit rules. In March, Albertini had re­quested two visits, one on a week­day and one on a weekend. Later, he asked for one hour of presenta­tions on general PT A activities, the environmental protection efforts and hazardous-materials dump and burn sites, as well as visits to cultural and environmental areas. Clarke agreed to one visit, which would include three hours of pre­sentations and no site tours, ex­cept for a trip to a pu'u.

Clarke had his talking points in order. He called PTA the "pre­mier training opportunity," where each year, 15,000 to 20,000 Army and Marine soldiers train. Allied partners are also in the mix. "All weapons of the 25th Infantry Di­vision can be fired here," he said.

Troops usually spend a week at the base, then go into the field­the vast expanse of pahoehoe and a'a blanketed with plant life be­tween Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa-for a few weeks. Clarke said the troops then "clean up their equipment, wash up everything"

before leaving. Kajihiro pressured Clarke to

define just how much clean-up the troops do. "The Impact Area where we fire into is an actively used training area so that area is not cleaned up," replied Clarke. The 50,000-acre Impact Area makes up almost half of PT A.

Saddle Road The military proudly gives visitors a booklet titled "Pohakuloa Train­ing Area: Understanding its Nat­ural and Cultural Resources." In­side, we learned that a type of snail, Leptachatina lepida, was dis­covered in the Multi-Purpose Range Complex southwest of the PT A Impact Area (i.e., where the bombs fall). It is found nowhere else. Also, the palila, a Hawaiian honeycreeper that once lived in the Kona uplands and Hualalai, today is found only in Mauna Kea's Mamane-Naio forests. It is through this forest that the realigned Saddle Road will go.

While the realignment is a Dept. of Transportation project,

. the military is chipping in S 17 million, which Clarke admitted they would not be doing if it did not directly affect PT A.

Activists are concerned about the connections between military build-up and the supposedly in­dependent state project.

Clarke said the realignment happening at this time was a just lucky break for the Army.

"The first piece of the four sec­tions [the Dept. of Transportation]

I

decided to realign happens to be inside the installation. There are some benefits to the community to realigning Saddle Road," he said. Public Affairs Officer McElroy said that the straightening will make the

. drive safer, and Oarke pointed out that by moving the road further up the slope of Mauna Kea, the military will no longer have to fire over the public road during training. Clarke did not mention that the Kona side of Saddle Road would still be in PTA territory if the 24,000-acre expansion goes through.

Those 24,000 acres belong to

UNCLEAN RDX and HMX, two of the chemicals the Army found in soil samples at PTA, are the very same chemicals that recently became international news when 380 tons of the toxic substances went missing at the Al-QaQaa facility in Iraq.

STRYKER TIMELINE 2005: Acquire West PTA Maneuver Training Area land

July 7, 2004: Army issues a Record ofDecision stat­ing they will bring a Stryker brigade to Hawai'i.

Aug. 2004: Three groups-'i'liou'laokalani, Kipuka, and Na 'lrni Pono, represented by Earthjus­tice-file suit against the Army to stop the Stryker brigade from corning to Hawai'i. The suit contends the Army did not explore alternate Stryker brigade sites , even though the Army's own environmental impact statement identi-

fled seven major mainland Army installations devoted to training U.S. Army forces. Earthjustice's David Henkin says it will "take at least six months to hear the case on the merits."

Late 2006-eariy 2007: First Strykers to be stationed on Hawai'i Island.

2007: Construct Battle Area Complex at PTA.

Fiscal 2009: Bradshaw Army Air Field runway upgrade and extension. Oct. 8: Plaintiffs file for

"injunctive relief' to stop all Stryker-related transfor­mation actions and also a temporary restraining order to stop the land grab. Nov. 5: Judge Ezra hears injunctive relief brief.

Fiscal 2009: Build Mili­tary Vehicle trail between PTA and Kawaihae.

Fiscal 2009: Upgrade Schofield (Wheeler) airfield for C-130 airplanes.

Fiscal 2009: Construct Schofield Battle Area Complex.

Nov. 9:Judge Ezra hears restraining order.

Parker Ranch, a longtime sup­porter of the military. In the early 1940s, owner Richard Smart gave large portions of the ranch to the Marine Corps to use for training. During World War II, there were 25,000 to 50,000 troops on Parker Ranch land.

"We see ourselves as a patriot and a partner [of the military)," said Diane Quitiquit, the ranch's vice president of marketing and development, by telephone.

Still, Quitiquit said the Army has not yet made an offer for the land, even though representatives from the military met Parker ·Ranch trustees and CEO Chris Kanazawa in August. Quitiquit said Parker Ranch expressed a willingness to work with the Army, although the Army cannot enter into any negotiations until, most likely, early 2005, when bu-

reaucratic hurdles are jumped. What does Parker Ranch want from the deal? Quitiquit would say only that the trustees "seek the highest and best use of the land."

Ecobabble Sean Gleason's hands shook slightly as he explained the envi­ronmental measures in place at PT A. Gleason has worked with the environmental i:eam at PT A for seven years. He started off eagerly, describing the federal government's "ecosystem man­agement" program.

"With ecosystem management, the idea is that you want to pre­serve a large contiguous area and by doing that, you preserve the smaller, poorly understood, more convoluted processes that are happening inside that

ecosystem," he said. Keli'i Collier asked Gleason if

he thought ahupua'a was an ecosystem. Gleason said it defi­nitely was.

"So how is driving tanks and doing live-fire training related to preserving ecosystems when you take a section of an area and blow it up and then try to preserve everything around it?" he asked. "My idea of an ecosystem is a synergistic world, where every­thing feeds off of everything."

"I'm the biologist here," Glea­son shot back. "I don't have in­put on how units train."

Even though Col. Clarke flew military advisors in from O'ahu, the I'm-not-the-right-guy excuse was common during the tour. When Marti Townsend, representing the National Lawyers Guild, asked about sources of wild fires on PT A, Gleason said, "I'll cover that later."

"Cover it now," demanded Townsend. Gleason did, but he didn't know all the details and said other people would answer the questions later. But the tour was so brief that these questions were rarely answered. Sixty ques­tions that the activists e-mailed to McElroy prior to the tour were not addressed at all.

Trail trash Our last stop: a pu'u overlooking the PT A. From there, the group could see the green and brown expanse that looks like a national park. It was only with a sharp eye that the green ammunition

bunkers could be spotted against the cinder cones and kipuka. Range manager Noble Kila point­ed out the ranges from which the military fires into the Impact Area.

The pu'u also overlooks Brad­shaw Army Airfield, which will be expanded to accommodate C-17 transport planes; they can carry two Strykers to Bradshaw. How­ever, PTA's altitude, up to 8,600 feet above sea level, could make take-off with Strykers on board impossible for the C-l 7s, said Transformation Officer Ron Borne.

William Aila, Jr. of Na 'Imi Pono, one of the groups suing the Army to stop the Strykers, has long been concerned with the Army's use of Makua Valley. He asked questions regarding CAI.FEX ( company combined arms live fire exercises) training.

"They have consistently said that Makua is the only place in the state where they can do this train­ing. The way that Ron [Borne] answered that question today is

sort of a lie and sort of technically true. The Army has not done any of those exercises up here-but the Marines have. That indicates that they can do it, but choose not to, because it would blow away their [Makua] argument."

Somewhat silent during the tour were members of Kipuka, another of the Stryker plaintiffs. During the pu'u visit, they wandered off the trail, and when the time came to get back on the bus, one young woman, who requested her name not be used, confronted Col. Clarke. She held in her hands trash she found in the weeds. Bot­tles, cans, pieces of plastic.

Her question was simple: How can I trust you when you say you're going to protect the land, when you don't clean up after yourselves? Clarke was silent. The young woman made the Lt. Col. promise he would clean up. He promised. With the military keep­ing such.tight control of access to the land, though, how will we ever know if he keeps it? •

that's everywhere," says Jason Momoa about his art. Yes,

Momoa cleans glasses on 1V s North Shore, but as the son of two artists, he's been creating stuff all his life.

In the past _he has taken things from junkyards and antiques shops, and altered them in some way. "This time, I'm trying to leave them in sim­plistic form," allowing people to see "nature's effects," says Momoa. The don't-touch approach works-the piece picrured looks as worked over as an Anselm Kiefer canvas. It's actual­ly a table top, and is one of a pair.

Momoa discovered them at Buffa­lo's Big Board Surfing Classic while waiting for a plate lunch. "They were covered and the wind blew and I saw them. They were the most beautiful things I've ever seen. Everyone was looking at me weird-'It's just a table."' It took 1;1.ine months before Momoa's cousin, water-safery icon Brian Keaulana, gave them to him. "I was so afraid they were going to paint over them or something."

The tabletops aren't a commodity to Momoa. ''I'm not trying to sell them. This is just to train my eye, to look under a table, to look side­ways-they'll eventually go in my house." He's drawn to the dark orbs on the wood-burn marks. "It's like the floorboards in a home--every scratch, ding, Christmas, birthday is etched into them-they' re a record of a family's history," says Momoa.

He shares the show with Hawai'i coururier, and good friend, T akeo ( the two have traveled to Tibet together, and their studios are across the street from each other). The 20-year retro­spective includes photographs of Takeo's 20 favorite pieces as well as a few of the actual pieces. His clients run from Vicky Cayetano to Rosie Perez. What drives his work? Says T akeo, "I just want to make people happy."

Bogle started surfing competitively in 1989, when he was 11. A back injury in 2002 masked the cancer, allow­ing it to spread for a year before being detected. At one point, the pain was so severe he was unable to finish a contest he forced himself to compete in.

I efore he was a conGert pi­anist, Jon Nakamatsu was ... Mr. Nakamatsu, high

school German teacher. He had been playing the piano since he was 6, and "I kind of wanted to learn another language and so much of the reper­toire that I play comes from German­speaking culrures, so knowing the lit­erature and history helps make me a deeper interpreter as a pianist."

Then in 1997, the native Californ­ian took the gold medal at the Tenth Van Cliburn International Piano Competition. "Overnight I had a huge life change," he says.

Since then he has performed as a guest soloist with symphonies in the United States and Germany, and this year he made his Japanese debut with the Tokyo Symphony Orchestra.

Aside from Bach, Brahms and Beethoven, Nakamatsu admits to diggin' on the music of the '80s. "But I'll never play that publicly-unless I want people to stream out of my con- · certs," he quips. What's a guilty pleas­ure? "Anything by Chicago brings back memories-isn't that scary?"

If you want to get to know Naka­matsu, who has ties to the islands, he says all it takes is to listen to him play. You can take him up on that next

week when he plays pieces by Schu­mann and Poulenc with Chamber Music Hawaii.

"Any kind of music or art is self ex­pression," he says. "If music does any­thing, it explains in a deeper sense who we are. When it comes down to it, it's who you are ... so hopefully, you'll get to know me."

American dreamers

A r. Sulu himself, George Takei, narrates Aaron Copland's "Lincoln Por­

trait" as part of the Honolulu Sym­phony's "American Heroes: Veteran's Day Tribute" this weekend.

Copland was the 20th century's. quintessential American composer, seeking ways to create music with an Americ~, rather than European, voice. His "Appalachian Spring," composed in 1944 for Martha Gra­ham's ballet, blended the Shaker song "Tis a Gift To Be Simple" into a suite that became a musical icon. His 1943 "Fanfare for the Common Man" is perhaps the most recognizable com­position of the century.

Copland's Lincoln stands for traits such as valor and freedom, and he was himself a poster-boy for the un­derdog struggles of his age. He was gay, and his left-leaning politics caused the cancellation of a "Lincoln" performance in the McCarthy era.

Narrator T akei knows that wars of freedom have often involved unjust loss of freedom, even far from the fighting.

"I was 4 when they sent us to the internment camps," says T akei, who spent World War II interned in Arkansas and California. The actor spoke to the Weekly on election day, hoping for a Kerry victory.

Takei also experienced prejudice against "the other," with chilling par­allels to that faced by Muslims jn America today.

"1Jie hardest part was returning to Los Angeles after the war," he says. "My father could only find us a place to live on Skid Row. People would fall down drunk in front of us, barf­fog and rolling in it. The stench of urine was everywhere. People looked at us and saw the enemy. They look n9w at Muslims and see terrorists, when they are not."

True freedom is the deeper issue. Copland's piece, its words stirring, celebrates and honors those who fought for the real American dream.

Easy riders THERE'S A DIFFERENT KIND OF HANGOUT in Jaron's old spot on Ha.makua Drive. In a town where most nightspots are seedy and dark and crowded with Windwardites who fancy themselves townies, Boardriders Bar and Grill is meant to be more like a Waimanalo back­yard party than a hook-up joint for the folks who'd rather not drive over the mountain for a good time.

Brian Smith, who owns the place with friends Jim Mansell and Jason Clark, says he wanted the bar to be a spot that all his backyard buddies would like. He wanted it to be the opposite of other Kailua spots. "We didn't have anywhere in Kailua to just hang out-we just had places like Tropics. I'm glad those places exist." Then with a half-•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• cocked grin he says, "It keeps

those people there." And away from his place, which he says draws a cool crowd, especially on Reggae Wednesdays or Saturday nights with Natural Vibes or Ooklah the Moc.

Vestiges of Jaron's are most notable in the five booths that partially line two walls, the restaurant fixtures as out of place in a sports bar as a Monday Night Football game in Assag­gio' s. But the pool tables with the Corona-motif lamps hanging over them, the surfboards hang­ing on the walls, the beach-scene mural and the eight televisions that air all manner of sport­

from football to beach volleyball to motocross racing-remind pa­trons that despite the soft chairs with wheels and the big comfy booths, Boardriders is indeed a sports bar for surfer types.

Undeployed soldiers mostly stay at the bar, which is tended by a soft-spoken girl with an accent and a short skirt. Surfer boys with­what else-brown skin, light hair, loose jeans and Ocean Pacific T­shirts gather round the pool tables and don't even notice the group of three girls in-what else-short skirts and halter tops who slap Smith's backside a few times while he leans over a table. ''Happy an­niversary," they all chirp, congratulating him on a year of successful business. There's a lot of love to be had, especially when you're the owner of one of only a handful of nightspots in Windward suburbia.

The music is loud and familiar: Maroon 5, Lenny Kravitz, the Doors, the White Stripes. The Sunday night crowd is as heteroge­neous as the music. Along with the military folks and the surfers, any­one-a couple of senior pool players, a few dart-playing women who look like they could crush the halter-topped girls and a man and woman trying to romance each other to the sounds of "L.A. Woman"-is welcome here. It's not exactly the place to see and be seen, but neither is a backyard beach party. -Kawehi Haug

David Sedaris INTERVIEW BY LESA GRIFFITH

At 4 7, David Sedaris is arguably America's funniest writer. Although he now calls Paris and London home, he contin, ues to mine his mishap,rich North Carolina childhood for material. His resulting essays, starring his family and boyfriend Hugh are both preposterously hilarious and memorably poignant. They are filled with little epiphanies, like the moment when a Cadillac turns from a symbol of regal riche to one of pitiful nouveau riche. Sedaris isn't afraid to air his comeuppances in public, sating our collec, tive lust for Schadenfreude and big laughs. But in his latest book, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, he reaches new notes of seriousness with pieces like "Hejira" (he does, n't realize his father has kicked him out of the house because he's gay) and "Repeat After Me," in which he apologizes to his sister by talking to her pet parrot. But don't worry, there's also a feces,eating dog. Sedaris spoke to the Weekly from a hotel room in Philadelphia.

So you've been called a literary rock star-when you're in Hawai'i will you read from your greatest hits or something new? I've never been to Hawai'i, so I have a couple new things I'll read and then I usually read one thing from the book. But that's that New York Times article, and it's just stupid, I mean, I'm a pretty poor excuse for a rock star ... I'm a poor excuse for a folk star. I don't know where that came from and .. .it's just embarrassing.

Will Hugh be coming with you? Yeah, that's why I'm staying two extra days because he likes to swim. See, I have hair on my back so I can't take my shirt off. So I'll probably just walk around. Well, somebody gave me this product in France this summer, it's like a hair remover. It burns the hair off your back. So if I can get some more of that then maybe I'll go swimming.

You should wax. I did that once, and that really hurt. I have so much hair on my back that I had to reuse the wax 'cause there was­n't enough and heat it again and so it was burning hair on the stove.

A wax and hair mixture; you could build a hut out of it. Well, I thought scented candles would be good [laughs]. I heard that Hawai 'i is not a good smoking state.

True. Do you smoke Gitanes now that you rive in France? Oh no. No, I have a menthol mentality. I smoke Kool milds and I buy them duty free at the airport. I went to the United States in January and on my return I got stopped by French customs for the first time and they asked, "Do you have more than two cartons of ciga­rettes?" I said, "I don't think so," and I had 14 and they found them in my suitcase. I was really sort of impressed because they had every right to say, "You liar, you looked us right in the eye and you lied." Instead they just charged me like an $8 tax on each carton and that was it.

OK, the question that everyone asks you-how much of your writing is real and how much is enhanced by memory and imagination? Oh, it's kind ofreality run through the story machine. I mean, there are certain things that a story needs. Like time is skewed sometimes and often people say what I wished they'd said instead of what they actually said. So it's the truth made entertaining.

"Put a Lid on H'' about your sister Tiffany is perturbing. You know, everyone in their family has their own se­crets and I don't reveal those. She had told me years ago I couldn't write about her, and I said, "Fine." And then she called and said, ''Everyone thinks you don't like me; will you write a story about me?" So I wrote that story and I sent it to her and I said, "Is it OK with you?" Be­cause I knew when I wrote it that there was nothing in there she would object to. Like she's proud of her

fucked-up feet and she's proud of the fact that she can make a living without having a real job. I think more than anything else, that would be a story that people would think that I wrote without someone's consent.

"Monie Changes Everything'' is about a summer in Greece, but instead of writing about the Acropolis, you focus on your patron-rich Aunt Monie. I'd been wanting to write about her for a long time. What I most remember about that is the fact that this was money, and how money affected our lives in a way. But I especially remembered that woman I babysat for calling us nouveau riche. At that moment I realized that money wasn't enough. I mean, it wasn't until then that I learned the Carolina Country Club didn't accept Jews or Yankees. I had thought money was money, and it could buy you a place in society. Which it can't.

What do you drive in France? I've never driven a car in my life. We have a car in Nor­mandy, but you need a pair of pliers to tum it on.

Is it an old Renault 2C or something? We had a 2C and then we traded it for a bottle of cider. It was just so much trouble.

You took a lot of guff in high school and now you live in Paris and write for the New Yorlrer. What do you think of the motto, "living well is the best revenge"? I don't think it's any kind of revenge really because ... you know, ifl think about people in my childhood and think, "Oh I'll show them" ... they don't read the New Yorker. They're not gonna pick it up and say, "Oh Dave Sedaris has a story in here." I would have to become a champi­onship wrestler for them to know who I am [laughs].

Everyone talks about the humor in your work. But it is the tortured, painful moments that linger. I usually take things on tour and I read them out loud and then go back and I rewrite them and I read them and I rewrite them. And I think, Oh I'll get rid of that mo­ment because that's not funny. But then I would read the story and I think, OK, well, what happens ifl were to go without that laugh and put that moment back in?

It's those horrible little moments that make it memo­rable. But you can go somewhere and laugh for an hour then you leave and you don't remember anything except that you laughed for an hour.

"Repeat After Me," in which you lay bare your sister, and in tum yourself, was poignant. That's my favorite thing I ever wrote. There was an Al­ice Munro profile in the New York Times Magazine this weekend. And I love Alice Munro. She had said she writes the stories that she would like to read. And that's the only time I wrote a story I would like to read. •

Questions & Answers About Our Environment

Dear EarthTalk: Why is bottled water so ubiqui­tous in stores now? Isn't tap water safe enough to drink?

-Matthew Lieberman, Wellesley, MA

Today just about all Americans have access to clean, safe and healthy tap water. Indeed, in many cases tap water may be safer to drink than some bottled water brands, which may not be subject to testing and might originate from sources near industrial facilities, despite the beautiful nature scenes found on -many bottled water labels. Further­more, about 40 percent of bottled water starts out as-you guessed it­tap water.

Early in 2004 there was public outrage in Britain when it was dis­covered that Coca Cola's Dasani brand, marketed as "pure, still wa­ter" and sold for 95 pence ($1.74) for a half-liter, was simply tap water from a public water supply south­east of London. To make matters worse, shortly thereafter the bever­age giant had to hastily withdraw 500,000 bottles when it was learned they contained nearly twice the legal amounts of a chemical, added by Coke during treatment, that can

cause cancers if consumed in large amounts.

Despite the facts, bottled water enjoys a "cool" factor that tap water can never match. A 2001 World Wildlife Fund (WWF) study confirmed that consumers widely associate bottled water with social status and healthy living. But in test after test, most people can't tell the difference between bottled water and tap water. When "Good Morn­ing America" conducted a blind taste test with its studio audience, New York City tap water was chosen as the heavy favorite over Poland Spring, Evian, and the oxygenated water 02.

The U.S. Environmental Protec­tion Agency (EPA) regulates the qual­ity of public water supplies, but it has no authority over bottled water. Bottled water that crosses state lines is considered a food product and is overseen by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Accord­ing to the influential International Bottled Water Association (IBWA), "By law, the FDA Standard of Quality for bottled water must be as strin­gent as the EPA's standards for public drinking water:'

sumers to trust bottled water in part because the FDA requires water sources to be "inspected, sampled, analyzed and approved:' However, experts at the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) argue that the FDA provides no specific restric­tions-such as proximity to industri­al facilities, underground storage tanks or dumps-on bottled water sources.

Meanwhile, if a brand of bottled water is wholly packaged and sold within the same state, it is not regu­lated by the FDA and is subject only to state standards, which can vary widely. The organization Co-op America reports that 43 states have just one full-time or part-time staff member dedicated to bottled water regulation.

Bottled water starts to look good when flooding, pollution or terror­ism might compromise public water supplies. Watchdog groups, however, advocate addressing such threats by increasing protection of public wa­ter sources. But as it stands today, water from the tap might be the healthiest thing you consume all day.

The Polar Express shows off hot new animation

It's alive

GARY M. KRAMER

In the past two decades, ani­mation has proven to be not just kid's stuff anymore. From Disney's The Lion King to Pixar's Monster's

Inc. to South Park: Bigger, Longer, Uncut (OK, maybe that's stretching it), drawn, or at least computer-gen­erated, images have become much more realistic and more adult for the big screen.

Therefore, when director Robert Zemeckis-who helped advance animation with bis groundbreaking

The

comedy, Who Framed Roger Rab­bit?-decided to make a film of Chris Van Allsburg's children's sto­ry, The Polar Express, he also want­ed to develop a state-of-the-art process to animate it as well.

The result, as producer Steve Starkey describes, is something called "performance capture, a new form of ci,nema that brings the actor's performance to life through digital rendering." Starkey explains that the idea for this was to "bring the au­thor's paintings to life-to get pieces oftlie art to 'live' on the big screen."

to this hokey Christmas story will admit that the animation looks ab­solutely magical.

To accomplish the process; the filmmakers used a form of biomet­ric technology to register facial im­ages and body movements and cre­ate other lifelike qualities on a com­puter. The technique required Tom Hanks-who voices no less than five roles in the film-to wear in­frared sensors all over bis face (and independently, all over bis body) so a computer could "map" bis expres­sions and motions. Once equipped, Hanks performed the action in the

film on both oversized sets and in an empty stage space without the use of props so the computer could track all of bis movements.

"We built a set in the computer, and mapped out the performance space using the infrared markers [to capture] the motion," says Starkey. "All of the camera set ups were in the computer, so we could place the lens [anywhere] to create a shot." When the scene was perfect and completed, the whole program could be handed over to the editor and digital effects team for what Starkey calls "blending." The oper-

/ ation enabled the fihnmakers to "do anything-and everything-to cre­ate a composition," Starkey boasts.

And while the film does have an ersatz Norman Rockwell look and feel about it, a fun musical number aboard The Polar Express and a chase scene atop the train that truly comes to life, the film defies physics, which is one of thebeai?} ties of animation, be it for children or adults. •

MBA Enrollment Surges

Many of HPU's MBA classes are offered at its downtown Honolulu campus.

For a second straight year, Hawai'i Pacific University's MBA enrollment shows a significant increase from the previous year. These consecutive increases are astonishing considering a nation­wide de~line in MBA applications. According to the Chronicle of Higher Education, more than three-quarters of the two-year, full­time M.B.A. programs surveyed received fewer applications for the 2003-4 academic year. So far, HPU's MBA enrollment has increased by 7 .6 percent and applications are leading last year by 8.1 percent.

So why has the trend been different for Hawai'i's largest M.B.A. program? Well, locally, students are attracted to quality and flexi­bility-HPU delivers both. Students outside Hawai'i are also interested in quality, but require innovative formats that enable them to accelerate their program. This, according to Harry Byerly, associate vice president, is why HPU's 12-month MBA and Flex MBA have been so popular. "We are committed to serving Hawai'i's busy professionals and being responsive to student needs, as the nature of conducting business evolves, so too, must business programs adapt," according to Byerly.

Although unique to Hawai'i, HPU is part of a growing number of business schools across the county that realize MBA programs must be flexible and portable to accommodate the fast-paced lives of adult students. HPU's "flex" programs and accelerated tracks are just part of innovative adaptations being made. With several class­es offered online and additional online classes being developed, students will soon have more opportunities to start their MBA.

WAYNE MUROMOTO

I don't like slasher movies. You know, the ones where decapitations, stabbings, multiple gunshots and chainsaw massacres happen

every five minutes. But I can appre­ciate a smart, original movie in any genre. And there have been some cleverly made fright movies lately, and none so clever as the American­ized redo of the Japanese hit, Juon, or in English, The Grudge.

In Japan, director Shimizu Takashi put out three Juon films and they are not so much sequels as vari­ations of the same material and sto­ry from slightly different angles.

When Sony Pictures execs decid­ed to produce an English version of Juon, they hired Shimizu to direct. So ·what we have here is not a

new set of juxtapositions and cross­cultural scary moments. With the subtle and appropriate upgrade in good ol' American computer graph­ic special effects, the scares are even scarier.

There was also one very smart bit of casting for The Grudge. Sarah Michelle Gellar is the main protago­nist, playing an exchange student who does volunteer social work as part of her college courses. She is sent to a strange, creepy house to care for an elderly woman after her Japanese friend disappears when she, too, was sent there. You half expect Gellar to whip out a wooden stake a la Buffy the Vampire Slayer series and kick obake ass when the spirits start to crawl out of the clos­ets and ceiling.

That Gellar's character, although she musters some courage at the end, is as human and as frightened of the

obake as we are lends an extra di­mension to the frightening surprises.

albeit really psychotic incident, and the roots of the horror dovetails neat­ly into the reason why the obake are after the Americans in the first place.

Also successful is the logic of the storyline. In one of the Japanese ver -sions, the story meanders and often makes no sense, which may not mat­ter that much to a Japanese audience. But faced with an American audi­ence, the powers that be may have asked Shimizu to base the origins of the horror in some kind of plausible,

The Grudge is the kind of obake movie that doesn't rely on gallons of blood (pints will do nicely), gore and innards splashed all over the place. Instead-thankfully-it's good, old-fashioned uji-creepy sus­pense and anticipation. •

Blind ambition BOB GREEN

I t' s a good thing that the showing of Lagos/Kool­haas will be followed by a panel discussion on the ap­plicability of architectural

ambition, such as is allegedly pre­sented in the pretentious documen­tary. (Panelists will also talk about applying some of the film's Lagos solutions to Honolulu.)

This film, two years in the malc­ing, is about Pritzker Prize-winning Rem Koolhaas, professor of archi­tecture and urban design at Harvard, and his four-year study of the teem­ing city of Lagos, Nigeria, and how Koolhaas hoped to "start from scratch" with the city's redesign.

Dutch filmmaker Bregtje van der Haalc followed the architect to and fro, recording his impressions of this incoherent African city disaster, lis­tening in on his interviews with citi­zenry about Lagos, which is expect­ed to explode in population from 14 million to 24 million by 2020, malc­ing it the third largest city in the world. However, the film is sketchy

The ambitious documentary Lagos/Koolhaas needs to go back to the drawing board and elliptical, often trying to malce up with split screens what it lacks within-in this case, more is less.

Framing the film are excerpts from a Nigerian TV show in which Koolhaas is interviewed-and then, somewhat mysteriously, we follow the interviewer on her rounds.

The most striking, if largely unde­veloped, aspect of this documentary is that it presents Koolhaas's view

that academia is too "traditional" to come up with solutions for the de­sign problems of rapidly growing, jerry-designed cities (like Lagos and Honolulu). For this Dutch architect, signs of Lagos' growth, giving what be calls "a sense of hope" to the city are the recently evolved boutique­shops and stylish stores, with more and more goods being imported from more sophisticated ports. An­other positive sign, be says, is that the city is considered safer than just a few years ago, when it was dubbed the "most dangerous" city in Africa.

But these wisps of ideas do not a great doc make; and what could have been a vibrant presentation of fleshed out ideas is instead a hero­worshipping mediocrity, which tries to pass off the trivial for the impor­tant. There are many good films about architects and architecture, but Lagos/Koolhaas is not among them.

HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC COMPANY INVITES YOU TO HELP PLAN FOR

OAHU'S FUTURE ELECTRICITY NEEDS

As part of the Integrated Resource Planning (IRP) process, six proposed, long-term energy plan alternatives have been developed. HECO welcomes your comments and invites you to a public information meeting to discuss them. The proposed energy plans are available on the IRP Web site at http://irp.heco.com.

• IRP is a process established by the Public Utilities Commission to plan for meeting Hawaii's energy needs. Ultimately, IRP charts a course towards a preferred energy future for Oahu.

• An Advisory Group representing business, government, energy regulators, consumers, environmentalists, and other stakeholders has been working closely with HECO. The Advisory Group and HECO considered population growth, culture, lifestyle, the economy, the environment, available energy technology, the impact on electric rates and monthly bills, and other factors.

• The Advisory Group and HECO evaluated a mix of resources, such as renewable energy, energy efficiency and energy conservation programs, combined heat and power technology, and central station power plants, under different scenarios, such as a sustained strong economy and the impact of high fuel prices. You are invited to comment on the proposed

energy plans.

Decipher those crazy wine labels

TheABCsof AOC TAYLOR EASON

I n a perfect world, wines would be labeled "Good, Cheap Red Wine" and "Great, Expensive White Wine." But we live in a

capitalist world, where marketing lures people to the dark side with pretty pictures. Experienced drinkers already know the Byzan­tine insider lingo-from DRC (Do­maine Romanee Conti from Bur­gundy) to groovy (Austria's Grun­er Veltliner)-and can recognize the good deals, but the rest of us stand clueless in the wine aisle at the local supermarket.

It doesn't have to be that way. A label primer:

France My rule of thumb when buying French wines is insultingly easy: the more writing on the label, the better (albeit more expensive) the wine. Four classifications tell you the lev­el of government-deemed quality (from highest to lowest): AOC (Ap­pellation d'Origine Controlee), Vins Delirnites de Qualite Superieure (VDQS), Vins de Pays and Vins de

· Table. In an effort to maintain con­sistency, within each growing re­gion laws delineate grape varieties, watering restrictions and growing techniques, as well as labeling. But recently, after wineries whined that these restrictions strangled their in-

What to buy ·

ternational competitiveness, the French government decided the Vin de Pays level could now show the grape name, instead of just the re­gion. Finally, we'll be able to pro­nounce something.

Italy Italy's wine laws correspond eerily to those of France. But with the ex­ception of Chianti, the country's re­gions as well as its grapes are less familiar. Four levels of quality shed light on what you should buy (from highest to lowest): DOCG (Denom­inazione di Origine Controllata Garantia); DOC; IGT (lndicazione di Geografica Tipica); and Vino da Tavola. Within DOCG, nine "zones" are delineated. The five best known are Barbaresco, Barolo,

Recommendations from local wine shops

The Wine Stop 1809 S King Street (946-3707) AOC: Pluigny-Montrachet, Bouchard Pere & Fils, 2002 Burgundy, $30 "Great vintage year for white Burgundy," says co-owner Kim Karalovich. DOCG: DaVinci Chianti, 2003, $10.99. "A Jot of fruit, not overly dry, good alone or with food," says Karalovich.

R. Field 1460 S Beretania Street (596-9463) AOC: Sauvignon Blanc, 2003, Sancerre Loire, $18 'The flavor is ripe, crisp

• and rounded-it's a food friendly wine," says Kevin Toyama Rioja: Sierra Cantabria, 2002 vintage, $8.79 "Supple flavors, dried fruit, herbs-a lot of flavor for under $10."

The Liquor Collection Ward Center (524-8808) AOC: Domaine du Grapillon d'Or, Bernard Chauvet, 2000, Rhone/Gigondas, $36.95 (on sale for $22.88) "Full bodied and all around a good wine," says John LaRue. QBA: Scharzhofberger, 1999, Kabinette, Egen Miiller, $40.50 (sale: $22.88). "Fresh fruit, nice, complex," says LaRue.

Vintage Wine Cellar Makild Shopping Village, 1249 Wilder 14.ve (523-9463) QBA: Doctor Weins-prum, 2003, Riesling, Kabinette, $16.99 ($14.99 with Connoisseur card). "German wines go really well with Thai, Vietnamese, and other cuisines that we consider lbcal. It is not a heavy wine and comes in three levels of sweetness," says Brian Bagano. Rioja: Valsacro Di Oro, 2001, $59.99. "It's a killer Rioja. It drinks beautifully and ages beautifully," says Brian Bagano.

Brunello di Montalcino, Chianti . (with seven subdistricts) and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, where your best deals will be had. Chianti, made from the fruity, red San­giovese grape, has three levels of quality specifically for that brand: Chianti Classico Riserva, Chianti Classico and Chianti. Knowing pro­ducers is not as important as remem­bering that well-priced Chianti Clas­sico is a reliable choice.

Gennany With all the gothic script on German labels, it's a wonder we can read them at all, but at least they're easi­er to decipher. German labels reflect quality grading and normally list the name of the grape, but Riesling is · often implied and omitted. Quality gradings are (from highest to low­est): Qualitat rnit Pradikat , QbA (Qualitatswein bestirtlmter An­baugebiete ), Landwein and Tafel­wein. Really the only German wine you want to bother with is Qualitat mit Pradikat. Because Riesling can be dry or sweet, there is a six-level Pradikat labeling system, signifying ttie ripeness--or sweetness--of the fruit at harvest: Kabinett, the least mature, Spatlese, Auslese, Beeme­auslese, Eiswein and Trockenbeere­nauslese. The best regions are Mosel-Saar-Ruwer and Rheingau, so look for those, choose your sweetne·ss and experiment

~in The Spanish, as with everything else they do, make wine buying easy. Their labels simply reflect the name of the maker or shipper, and the re- . gion. As in the United States, there are no quality classifications and few government rules. Three re­gions produce the majority of ex­ported Spanish wines: Rioja, Ribera del Duero and Penedes. Hearty Gar­nacha and Tempranillo grapes pro­vide the foundations. Als9 look for the word ''Reserva," which indicates higher quality. •

Green Door Cafe 1145 Maunakea St, entrance on Pauahi St between Maunakea and Smith Sts (533-0606). Tue-Sun 10:30AM-3PM, 5:30-8PM. Entrees: $5. 75--$7. Cash only. Betty Pang makes Malaysian staples and Nyonya cooking-the cuisine that evolved when Chinese settled in Malac­ca. The dishes change daily-you might have nyonya-style pork loin one day, and fried pomfret (monchong) squirted with lime the next. The food is fragrant wit:Q spices and seasonings like coriander, cumin, turmeric, ginger and galangal. Best bet: roti canai (flat bread) dipped in the thick, rich, chicken curry.

lmanas 2626 S King St, Diamond Head of Uni­versity Ave (941-2626). Mon-Sat 5-ll:30PM. A la carte: $2.50-$12.50. Beef shabushabu: $18.50. AmEx, MC, V. Nihon-jin flock to this 7-year-old warmly minimalist room. Exemplary classic Tokyo-style sushi is as close as you'll come to Sushi Sasabune in this price range. Order a parade of beautiful­ly composed plates-grilled butterfish, chilled kabocha pumpkin, shabushabu salad-to go with sips of sake and shochu. The sake list is short but sweet;

· it changes whenever owner Keisuke Asai makes a new discovery.

Little Vino Restaurant Row, 500 Ala Moana Blvd, Diamond Head end (536-6286). Wed, Thu 4:30-9:30PM; Fri 4:30-llPM; Sat 7-llPM. Tasting plates: $7.95--$16.95. AmEx, Disc, JCB, MC, V.

Little Vino serves 20 wines by the glass, with a hand­ful available in two-ounce tasting flights

that are a deal at $10.50. Another 50 to 60 wines are available by the bottle, and they rotate weekly. The menu is limited but al­luring. Revamped caprese salad with fried imported buffalo mozzarella, and grilled shrimp in a roasted-garlic sauce hold their own against the wine parade. Proof that D .K. Kodama knows how to diversify his growing restaurant empire.

Lox of Bagels 111 Sand Island Access Rd (845-2855). Mon-Fri 5AM-4PM, Sat 7AM-3PM. Plain bagel: 85 cents. Sandwiches: $5.75--$7.75. MC, V. Lester Y onarnine takes a lot of liberties with the basic bagel recipe-at little Lox of Bagels you can get a bagel danish, bagel chips and the trademark bagel Puffs-manapua-size bagel dough filled with cream cheese and either peanut but­ter, chocolate and cinnamon raisin. Oh, and they come with azuki beans, too. You can also get the traditional flavors--pop­PY seed, sesame-and sandwiches and salads round out the menu.

Momomo 3008 Wai'alae Ave at St LIJuis Dr (737-6666). Wed-Mon 5PM-midnight. Appe­tizers: $2.50-$8.75. Entrees: $5.50-$11. Amex, Disc, MC, V. Black-box building, black-clad servers, black interior-Momomo is Tokyo hip but Honolulu laid back. Opened in June, Nihon-jin wait in line for the izakaya dish­es. For something different, try the Nagoya specialties or the spicy Taiwan­style ramen. The good sake selection makes it a place to sip and sample.

new Wal-Mart, is the fifth restaurant in a Tokyo chain that retools the teppan con­cept to high chic. The signature okono­mi yaki comes in versions like the octo­pus-studded Kobe, served with dollops of Japanese mayo and brown sweet sauce. Small plates like daikon in nutty-sweet miso sauce, paired with a great cocktail list (shochu, white wine, lychee and grapefruit is refreshing), are reasons to linger at Kai.

Paradise Found Cafe 66-443 Kamehameha Hwy, inside Celes­tial Foods, Hale'iwa (6374540). Mon-Sat 9AM-5PM, Sun 9AM-4PM. Entrees: $3.95-$8.95. Cash, local check, bartering. This 5-year-old nook at the rear of a grit­ty healthfood store looks like a 1970 hip­pie throwback, but the fresh casual food goes beyond tasteless tofu.

Midnight special The Living Room at Fishennan's Wharf has the usual boiled soybeans and garlic fries-please, not another one! But also on the small late-night menu card is an addictive twist on the humble grilled cheese sandwich. Can the Kraft-this kitchen layers Brie, goat and feta cheeses on toasted sourdough slices then grills the stack until the inside oozes perfec­tion. The smooth, subtle Brie is a perfect complement to the tang of feta and goat cheese. The sandwich screams for a glass (or two) of Sauvignon Blanc. The Living Room doesn't serve wine-but the staff stays true to the name and lets you bring your own. Fishennan's Wharf, 1009 Ala Moana Blvd {538-3808). Grilled cheese: $6.00.

like the garlicky tempeh gyro, global-in­flected dishes like a Thai-inspired peanutty eggplant stir-fry and pro surfers like Mark Occhilupo and Joel Tudor.

Taqueria La Michoacana 1666 Kalauokalani Way, kitty-comer from Daiei (955-8799). Mon, Tue, Thu-Sat l0AM-'--I0PM; Wed I0AM-5PM. Price: $1. 75--$8.95. Cash only. Well-seasoned, homey cuisine from Mexico's high plains are on the menu at this eat-and-run c.ife run by the owners of Quintero's. Along with the staples­soft tacos, burritos, tamales-Michoa­cana offers items you won't find any­where else, such as tortas (a sandwich), albondigas (meatballs) and horchata (it's a drink). Don't miss the pozole, the soup's rich, reddish broth dotted with herbs, hominy and shreds of pork. It's available only on Friday and Saturday.

Taishoken 903 Ke'eaumokuSt(955-8860). Mon-Sat llAM-llPM. Average bowl oframen: $7. Cash only. The Honolulu branch of one of Tokyo's most famous ramen shops, this is a must-stop for noodle aficionados. Taishoken is famous for a dish it invent­ed: Tsukemen. You dip firm, eggy room-temperature noodles into a bowl of soup, almost like soba. You can choose between shoyu_Qr miso broths. Dishes such as curry ancl chicken-katsu round out the brief menu.

This Is It Bakery & Deli ~ 443 Cooke St between Pohukaina and " Auahi Sts (597-1017); This ls It Too, 1001 Bishop StandAlakea (526-2280). Mon-Sat llAM-llPM. Plain bagels: 85-cents each, $9 a dozen. AmEx, Disc, MC,V. Owner Steve Getson boils his bagels at 4:30AM. He and his wife, Mona, have been making the hearty rounds of dough for 25 years in Hawai 'i, and opened a second location in April . Sandwiches, salads and desserts are also on the menu. The golden brown fat circles are aii tra­ditional taste and texture. When it comes to bagels, well, this is it.

Yotteko-Ya McCully Shopping Center, 1960 Kapi'olani Blvd, 2nd floor (946-2900). Hours: Daily 11AM- 2PM, 5AM-11 PM. $3.75--$9.45. AmEx, JCB, Mv; V. This upscale ramen house is part of a Japan chain. While the noodles taste kind of like pasta, the restaurant makes what is possibly the best char siu in the city. You can order your ramen Japanese style (al dente) or local style (cooked longer for softer texture). The style quotient and contemporary dishes make Y otteko-Ya date-worthy.

• Who am I?• What is my spiritual nature?• What is the nature of the world in which we live?• How can I connect with the forces of nature and live in harmony with my environment? • Why do things happen the way they do?

If you have asked yourself even one of these questions, then it may be time for you to consider the study of Huna. Huna is the original art and science of

healing and spiritual development of the Hawaiian people. It isn't for everyone, but it is for those who want to know more about who we are and

the nature of the world we live in.

Kona, Hawaii March 5-13, 2005

Learning Huna is more about experiencing the knowledge than learning the techniques. While you'll do both at this training, it is important for you to realize that this is a very different training than any you have ever attended.

Plan on "living" this material, not just "learning" it.

e. h ra1g t ope

D id 90,000 people in Chicago die of typhoid f ever and cholera in 1885? I'm asking be­cause the Chicago Tri­

bune Magazine, which made this claim recently, later published a let­ter from a reader challenging the sto­ry. The Tribune's reply was remark­ably lame, even by their low stan­dards: "If it's an urban legend, it's an amazingly pervasive one." Cecil, 1 know you can do better than that. What's the Straight Dope on the iy­phoid and cholera outbreak of 1885?

-Mark Gleaves, Westmont, Illinois

I 'm not answering this question because you enclosed a double sawbuck, Mark, although it was a thoughtful touch. I'm answer­ing because of Barry Popik.

You remember Barry: New York City parking-ticket judge by day, re­lentless word bloodhound by-well, pretty much all the rest of the time. Barry made his bones in etymolog­ical circles by establishing that New York's nickname "the Big Apple" had been popularized by horse-rac­ing writer John J. Fitz Gerald, who

first heard it in New Orleans on­how's this for precision?-Jan. 13 or 14, 1920.

Having badgered Big Apple offi­cialdom into putting up a plaque to commemorate his find, Barry next turned to Chicago's nickname "the Windy City." Common but erro­neous belief had it that the sobriquet was coined circa 1890 by New York newspaper editor Charles Dana to lampoon Chicago's logorrheic boosters. Barry established that, on the contrary, the term was already being used in 1885 with reference to the city's lake breezes, and he's since found instances dating from as early as 1876. Ignorance dies hard in Chicago, however. Despite Barry's tireless efforts, the discred­ited Charles Dana story is still being flogged by leading local institu­tions, including the Chicago Histor­ical Society, the Chicago Public Li­brary, and the Chicago Tribune. Just a few weeks ago I got yet another note from Barry lamenting that no­body pays any attention to him, he gets no respect, etc.

OK, the guy can be a little dra­matic. You still have to admire his tenacity. I do my bit to eradicate ig-

norance too, but journalism being the flighty business it is, I take my best shot and move on. Barry, in contrast, hammers away till the bas­tards cave, no matter how long it takes. Since he's got the Wmdy City thing covered, I figure the least I can do is open a se_cond front.

Which brings us to cholera. In be­tween helpings of the Dana fable, Chicagoans have repeatedly been told that 90,000 (or some other large number) of their predecessors per­ished from cholera, typhoid, and other waterborne diseases in 1885 when sewage discharged into Lake Michigan fouled the city's water supply. The most recent recounting of this tale ( or anyway the most re­cent I've seen) appeared in the Chicago Tribune Magazine on March 21 , 2004. Five minutes ofre­search will suffice to demonstrate that the story is absurd. Chicago's population in 1885 was roughly

700,000. The loss of 90,000 to cholera would have meant a mortal­ity rate of over 12 percent, or about one person in eight, an epidemiolog­ical catastrophe with few parallels in modern times. (For comparison, during the global influenza pandem­ic of 1918-' 19, which some consid­er the most devastating disease out­break in history, Philadelphia, the hardest-hit U.S. city, lost nearly 13,000 people, or less than 1 percent of its population.)

For the facts we tum to The Chicago River: A Natural and Un­natural History by Libby Hill (2000). Hill informs us that sanitary facilities in Chicago were wholly in­adequate in 1885: sewers emptied into the Chicago River; after heavy rains, runoff caused sewage to flow far out into the lake, the city's source of fresh water. A torrential storm on Aug. 2 of that year dropped five and a half inches of rain on the city in 19

hours, which under other circum­stances might have meant disaster. To the relief of all, however, nothing happened, possibly because winds were out of the northeast, . which may have kept effluent from reach­ing the water intake two miles off­shore. No cholera deaths were re­ported (the disease was unknown in Chicago after the 1860s ), and the ty­phoid rate for the year was only slightly above average. Typhoid deaths during the 1880s never ex­ceeded 1,000, peaking in 1891 at 1,700. (Alarmed by the 1885 close call, the city undertook the massi~e canal project that permanently re­versed the flow of the river and end­ed the typhoid threat.)

You can't blame the Tribune for repeating a local legend-Hill tells me she's still trying to figure out where the story originated. What's surprising is that even though her impressively researched book was cited in the letter to the editor you saw and is available from the public library, the Trib refused to face the facts. You see why Barry Popik \ makes all those funny noises and spits. Patience, muchacho. The truth will triumph yet.

by Rob Brezsny •••••••• (March 21-April 19) In 200 I, a man was out walking his dog along­side the River Ivel in England when he stum­bled upon an unexpected treasure: a 1,200-year-old gold coin bearing the image of King Coenwulf, who ruled the long-defunct king­dom of Mercia from 796-821. The coin was auctioned off three years later, earning its find­er more than $200,000. I nominate this vi-gnette as your Official Metaphor of the coming weeks, Aries. According to my reading of the astrological omens, you too ,viii soon discov­er an old valuable that will ultimately bring you good fortune.

(April 20-May 20) My Taurus friend Allie just put a new bumper sticker on her car: "I can't remember if I'm the good twin or the evil one." It's almost as if she intuitively guessed one of the key themes you Bulls will soon be wrestling with: how to tell the difference between your strong, beau­tiful, inspiring qualities and your unripe, unlovely, and debilitating ones. It won't be as easy as you might imagine. There are sides of your personality that are a blend of both the good and the bad, for one thing. It's also true that your virtues sometimes mutate into vices, and vice versa. Proceed on this exploratory mission with a tough but open mind.

GtffilNI (May 21-June 20) "Anybody can become angry-that is easy," said Aristotle. "But to be angry with the right person, and to the right degree, and at the right time, and for the right purpose, and in the right way-that is not within everybody's power and is not easy:" I agree with Aristotle. Those who are able to express anger with maximum integrity are as brilliant as any No­bel Prize winner and as saintly as Gandhi and Mother Teresa combined. Can you imagine yourself rising to that challenge, Gemini? Your assignment in the coming week is to try to master the art of constructive wrath.

Oune 21-July 22J In his new book, The Naked Woman (avail­able thus far only in the U.K.), biologist Desmond Morris says that women have four G-spots. He calls the other three the A-Spot, C­Spot, and U-Spot. I thought you Cancerians should know about this fantastic news. You're in the thick of the Season of Bliss, when you should be expanding your capacity to give and experience all sorts of pleasure. I suggest that you do lots of hands-on research to expand your erotic possibilities. Don'! stop there, though; explore the frontiers of feeling good in every way you can imagine.

uo Ouly 23-Aug. 22) ''The golden opportunity you are seeking is in yourself," wrote motivational author Orison Swett Marden. "It is not in your environment; it is not in luck or chance, or the help of oth­ers; it is in yourself alone." Personally, I think that's a bit overstated. In my experience, divine grace in the fonn of unexpected assistance is usually involved when a golden opportunity shows up. On the other hand, most of us do underestimate how much power we have to make good things happen. This is the time and this is the place, Leo, to stop underestimating. Your will is stronger than you realize.

Vl~GO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) lime for a poetry break, Virgo. You've gotten way too serious and literal. Read the following advice with the right side of your brain, please. Imagine you have a guardian angel who re­sembles the celebrity you love most. Sing your favorite commercial jingle with rev­erence. Recall and relim the last day of)'our childhood Drink the tears of sr1meone you love. If you come upon a lamp with a genie in it, don't wish .1•011 had a magic wand Speak aloud what the poetjolm Keats wrote: "I am certain of nothing but the holiness of the Heart's affections and the tnith of Imag­ination. "Refer to you rselj as the "Earth-

Shaking, Record-Breaking, Love-Erecting, Trnth-Correcting, Mind-llxpanding,]ustice­Demanding Bolt of Liquid Lightning."

(Sept. 23-0ct. 22) In 2002, physicists at Middle Tennessee State University were able to transmit electric signals through coaxial cable at four times the speed of light, even though the equipment they used was cheap stuff from Radio Shack According to my reading of the astrological omens, you now have the potential to pull off an almost equally amazing feat at a very low cost. So don't assume you need complicated, sophisti­cated resources this week, Libra. It'll be fine to rely on your personal equivalent of what the Tennessee scientists called "basement sci­ence."

iCO~PIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) According to philosopher George Santayana, "A fanatic is one who redoubles his effort when he has forgotten his aim." Let's make sure that doesn't become an apt description of you in the coming weeks, Scorpio. I have no problem with you redoubling your already-in­tensive efforts. In fact, I encourage you to take your dogged, concentrated approach to new levels that are unprecedented even for you. Just make sure that you never get sidetracked by fantasies of revenge or other irrelevant di­versions. Stay hyper-focused on your worthy, noble goals. Show all of us the meaning of en­lightened obsession.

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Let's say, hypothetically speaking, that a croc­odile had you trapped in its clenched jaws. The situation would be hopeless, right? No, not at all. If you had the presence of mind to jam your fingers into the beast's eyeballs, it would release you immediately. Similarly, Sagittarius, the predicament in which you actually find yourself these days is not as dire as you might imagine. E.scape will be surprisingly easy if you simplify your perspective and let your instinct for slllVival guide you.

UIP.Al(O~N (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Why do human beings have no more genes than wonns? Why do black sheep have a bet­ter sense of smell than white sheep? Why do more than four million Americans believe they've been kidnapped by extraterrestrials? Why do men have nipples? Why do Capricol1ll ask fewer questions than any other sign of the zodiac? I don't know the answer to any of those queries, but I do know that it's time for you to challenge the premise of that last one. Even if there's a grain of truth in the theory that you're not a gung-ho practitioner of the spirit of inquiry, that's got to change. For the next six weeks, you should be the most persistent and imaginative question-asker in all of creation.

Oan. 20-Feb. 18) Shamans and mystics down through the ages have insisted that the invisible universe is more vasnnrd telll lhan the visible one. In recent years, modern astronomers have adopted a similar perspective. According to the presti­gious science journal Nature, the new consen­sus is that the cosmos is composed of 23 per­cent dark matter and 73 percent dark energy, which are utterly concealed from our five senses and undetectable by any known instru­ments. The stuff we can actually perceive-­stars, planets, trees, clouds, buildings, choco­late candy, other people-is a mere four per­cent of everything there is. I bring this up, Aquarius, because it's an excellent time to cul­tivate your relationship with all that is unseen. Using your sixth sense, see if you can tune in to and fall more deeply in love with the Gre:i~ Mystery.

Pli(U (Feb. 19-March 20) I've assembled three experts to provide you with astrologically apt counsel for the coming week FlfSt, here's writer Christopher Morley: "Read, every day, something no one else is reading. Think, every day, something no one else is thinking. Do, every day, something no one else would be silly enough to do. It is bad for the mind to continually be part of unanim­ity." Here's your second advisor, Gennan writer and scientist Johann Wolfgang von Goethe: "A person should hear music, read poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his life, in order that worldly cares may not oblit­erate the sense of the beautiful which God has implanted in the human soul." Finally, Pisces, here's a crucial tip from Oscar-winning ac­tress, Katherine Hepburn: "If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun."

Isn't that. .. ? It couldn't be ... it is! No, it's not. For Al Gore and Alexandra Kerry's visit to Farrington High School last Friday, volunteer Tom Biehn, with presidential suit, tie and saxophone, gave the hundreds of Kerry supporters a boost with his visual reminder of America's most popular Democrat.

Now retired and living in Hawai'i, Biehn has caused enough double takes to land him hundreds of Bill Clinton look-alike jobs throughout the country since 1992. "It started during the debate of '91," he says. "People were saying, 'You kind of look like that governor from Arkansas."'

Photographic recall One fun~tion of a research library is to safeguard our collective memory for future use, which is why the Oct. 30 flooding ofUH-Manoa's Hamilton Library is so devastating. Among the materials saturated with mud and water were thousands of historic photographs, and the only hope for saving these images from ruinous mold was to bathe and then freeze them until each can (hopefully) be restored. And so on Nov. 2-with the power out, humidity high and time running short-a cadre of staff and volunteers spent hour upon hour working by lantern light, trying to retrieve some bit of our past. -STU DAWRS

Good gomd

On Oct. 29, Architects Hawaii, Ltd. (AHL) staff took a break from blueprints for its 16th Annual Pumpkin Carving Contest at the American Savings Bank Tower

lobby in downtown Honolulu . In the midst of day-old pumpkin seeds, employees on

lunch breaks and the occasional investment banker disguised as a French maid were orange politician heads but this is one race Bush didn't win. The first place ribbon went to "Mr. Tiki" (pictured) carved by AHL designer Jason Selley. "It took me a total of four fun hours to carve it," says Selley. "I wanted to carve something with a Hawaiian theme. At first I was going to create a totem pole of pumpkins, but I finally settled on one tiki head instead."
