Story by Jessica Machado
Photos by Matt Mallams
As Waikiki changes, so does Henry Takahashi. He's moved his tiny fresh-fruit store three times in the last thirty years, first to make way for the Trump Tower, then to the Imperial Hotel and finally to its current space next to a moped rental shop hidden in the footprint of Waikiki Beach Walk. A threadbare family-owned produce stand isn't the kind of thing you find in Waikiki these days; you'd think it would be swallowed by the shopping centers, glitzy new restaurants and high-rise condos. But Henry hasn't let that happen.
Instead he's expanded. Now he's locally famous for his mountainous fruit bowls of papaya, pineapple and apple banana as well as his sorbet and ice cream. Each day he churns out nearly one hundred servings of flavors like mango, guava, coconut and Kona coffee from his modest ice cream maker in a room behind the counter. He doesn't add preservatives or artificial flavoring and uses only six ingredients— fruit, eggs, milk, sugar, cream and coloring —all for $5 per nine-ounce cup.
His resourcefulness with fruit (he used to make his own shave ice syrup) is a family gift. His father, who like Henry is often sitting with the customers in the plastic lawn chairs out front, began his career driving around neighborhoods, selling fresh-picked fruits and veggies out of his truck in the 1940s and '50s. The family then took the business to swap meets until Henry opened his place in 1982. And though he's had to bob and weave a bit since, Henry's Place remains a Waikiki institution—mostly thanks to digital word of mouth.
With each relocation, economic swing and technological advancement, Henry's customer base shifts—from hotel workers to Japanese tourists to the current influx of Mainland visitors. "I have people coming in from all over saying they heard about me on Yelp. I was like, 'What does 'Yelp' mean?'" Henry laughs. "It's nice to read," he says about the rave reviews customers post on the web site. "But man, it sure is a different world now."

A legal drug that tricks the brain into letting it attack the body offends Dr. Patrick Hogan III. It offends the Tacoma doctor so much that he's volunteered the last 20 years, dragging its victims back from addiction.
He got his thank-you note last weekend. It came complete with scrollwork, the state seal and a fancy typeface.
Gov. Chris Gregoire proclaimed May 19 Franciscan Health System Freedom from Tobacco Day. Gregoire cited the 49,000-some people who have gone through the four-week class and stuck with the support group Hogan founded in 1992. These thousands are, without exception, happy they got the help to quit.
We should be, too. They have saved us millions in health costs we'd otherwise help pay through our insurance premiums and taxes.
Hogan shares the honor with colleagues and volunteers at St. Joseph Medical Center, St. Anthony, St. Francis and St. Clare hospitals. Franciscan takes smoking cessation seriously, so much so that last year it adopted a policy requiring all new employees to have a tobacco-free lifestyle.
"Tobacco is the leading preventable cause of disease and death in our country," Hogan said last week at the office where he practices neurology.
Neurology, by the way, is not one of the fields in which docs fight the damage smoking does to the body. But a neurologist is the right person to explain to smokers how they've been suckered by the tobacco industry.
"Nicotine binds with the brain, which releases dopamine, which makes you feel really good," he said. "Initially, you get the buzz from dopamine."
That buzz is addictive, he said – addictive, short-lived and stingy. "After a while, you're not getting the dopamine. You're getting the discomfort of withdrawal. You have a very powerful urge to get that return of the dopamine level."
Steve and Diana Anderson had smoked for 27 years when Steve's brother bugged them to see what the Hogan's Freedom from Tobacco Support Group at St. Joseph Hospital was all about.
"We went for a month or a month and a half before we set our quit date," Steve Anderson said. "To my surprise, it actually worked."
The Tacoma Power crew supervisor and his bride started smoking when they were students at Lincoln High School. Back then, the message on television, in print and on billboards was that smoking would make you slim and glamorous, or possibly a better cowboy.
By 1995, they were worried what it was really doing to them, and afraid of what quitting would be like.
"We pushed back our quit date a week, and then we stuck with it," Anderson said. "It seemed like at the time it was really difficult. As time went on, we just kept slapping on the nicotine patches every day, and it seemed like it got easier eventually."
Anderson is a mainstay at the support group, not because he needs it, but because newcomers need to see what a former smoker looks like.
"I tell them, 'You can quit, too. It's doable, and it doesn't hurt that bad.' I have to give credit to Dr. Hogan and (tobacco cessation coordinator) Heidi Henson. They know just what to say at the right time, so it sinks in."
Timing is a tricky thing, Hogan said. In the late 1980s, he partnered with Dr. Gordon Klatt and health department and medical representatives to form Tobacco-Free Pierce County. Nationally, the anti-smoking buzz was getting louder.
"We wanted to get sentiment, and politicians, rolling, to get the county tobacco-free," he said. "We were looked at as radicals. People asked 'What's the big deal with smoking? It's part of our culture.'"
They fought smokers' rights groups. They went up against lobbyists for the ventilation industry. They got politicians to rethink smoke-filled rooms. Every time a restaurant went smoke-free, they staged a celebration and included it in a booklet of all nonsmoking restaurants in the county.
In 1992, they realized telling people to stop smoking wasn't enough. They founded Freedom From Tobacco and saw real results from their work.
Thanks to them, if there were a cake with 20 candles, there are many thousands of people in Pierce County with enough breath to blow them out.

Adding on to this, whenever you go past a cricket game being played, you turn around in your seat if you have to just to make sure you see at least one ball bowled.

You know youre obsessed with Marto when you have over twenty video tapes of his innings (these also include news report and even
the odd tv commercial) and over 20 cassette tapes of cricket commentary you taped off the radio and you have listened to them so much the tapes are starting to wear thin and when one recorder did chew up the cassette you frantically unscrewed it, laboriously threaded it back on and breathed a huuuuge sigh of relief that it was still working. In fact some cassettes youve listened to so much you know exactly what Tim Lanes going to say next and what Barry Richards will say after that. Added to this you collect all newspaper clippings with any reference to marto so you have scrap book upon scrap book of marto articles. You also always used to Google news search him so you have hundreds of computer files containing online marto articles from overseas newspapers, websites etc. Martos retired now. Hes no longer in the news. Im in a better place (Should I have just admitted all that???)

From Burr: "(Should I have just admitted all that???)"
Probably not. I'm nowhere near your level. You know you're obsessed when: You work out your whole sleeping schedule around the 2007 World Cup (I'm in Japan). Come home from work at 4.30. Shower, sleep until 10.00, watch the match, go to work, come home from work at 4.30.... After one month of this I was a walking zombie. The fact that the tournament sucked didn't help either. |

South Korea said it believes a nuclear test caused an earthquake in North Korea near the site of two previous atomic experiments.
Defence Ministry spokesman Kim Min-seok said North Korea informed China and the United States of its plans to conduct a nuclear test. Mr Kim said an earthquake was detected in North Korea shortly before noon local time.
North Korea has yet to confirm whether the tremor resulted from the widely-anticipated test, though an analyst in Seoul said a nuclear detonation was a "high possibility". Nuclear blasts can create tremors but they are distinct from those caused by natural earthquakes.
A United Nations nuclear test monitoring organisation detected what it called an "unusual seismic event" in North Korea. The US Geological Survey as well as earthquake monitoring stations in South Korea detected an earthquake just north of a site where North Korea conducted its second nuclear test in 2009, according to the government-funded Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources.
"There is a high possibility that North Korea has conducted a nuclear test," said Chi Heoncheol, an earthquake specialist at the institute. Mr Chi said a magnitude 3.9 magnitude earthquake and a magnitude 4.5 earthquake were detected in the North's 2006 and 2009 nuclear tests.
The United States and its allies have been on edge since North Korea said last month it would conduct its third nuclear test to protest at toughened sanctions over a December rocket launch that the UN called a cover for a banned missile test. North Korea's powerful politburo vowed to continue firing "powerful long-range rockets", but a statement by state media on Tuesday made no mention of a nuclear test.
North Korea's powerful National Defence Commission said on January 23 that the United States was its prime target for a nuclear test and long-range rocket launches. North Korea accuses Washington of leading the push to punish Pyongyang for its December rocket launch.
Last October, a spokesman from the commission told state media that the country had built a missile capable of striking the United States, but did not provide further details. A missile featured in an April 2012 military parade appeared to be an intercontinental ballistic missile, but its authenticity has not been verified by foreign experts.
A world nuclear test monitoring organisation detected what it called an "unusual seismic event" in North Korea. "The event shows clear explosion-like characteristics and its location is roughly congruent with the 2006 and 2009 DPRK (Democratic People's Republic of Korea) nuclear tests," said Tibor Toth, executive secretary of the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Organisation.
"If confirmed as a nuclear test, this act would constitute a clear threat to international peace and security, and challenges efforts made to strengthen global nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation, in particular by ending nuclear testing," Mr Toth said.

I know a lot of the people on this board who know a lot more about football than I do opposed Harbaugh's hiring by Bisciotti and have always found much to object to. While I understand how more jaded fans were put off my his rah-rah approach, I can honestly say I approved of him from day one when he emphasized team - team - team. While he has made some in-game mistakes and we all know he has stubbornly stuck with things that weren't working (Cameron and the OL this year) I truly believe what the owner saw was a guy who would develop a championship culture here, and that is what has happened.
I especially appreciate him compared to Jim Harbaugh, who strikes me as a jerk.
Have any of you who hated on the guy come around now?

Alumni Interviews
Interview with Cailyn Katsev, world famous CEA alum
GO: Why did you decide to study abroad with CEA in France?
Cailyn: I have been taking French for three years (even though you did not need to speak French to go on this program, it just was more convenient) and decided I wanted to go to a French speaking country and I preferred to be in Europe. I was not ready to go to a huge city and since I am from Southern California so I wanted to be able to spend five months on the beach. Once I saw that we could study abroad in the French Riviera, a destination spot for millions I was sold. And it was perfect. Also the staff on the French Riviera were spectacular.
GO: What made studying in France a unique and special experience?
Cailyn: I had to take science classes and this school, Skema, not only offered science courses but also the labs. Therefore, I did not get behind in graduating with my major and my science courses. I am also a big runner and was able to run the Nice International half marathon with my friend from abroad. I spent my days rollerblading and floating on my beach raft.
GO: How did this experience impact your academic development?
Cailyn: This experience has made me more independent, confident, and simply more excited about traveling and life. I made some of my best friends that I hope to stay in contact with forever. We spent so much time traveling across Europe and Africa that we became so close. I am more confident speaking french and I much more accustomed to their culture.

Naval Avenue School set to celebrate its centennial | Colleen Smidt
By COLLEEN SMIDT
The Naval Avenue School will be celebrating 100 years of operation in January. Not the building itself of course, but the fact that this location has been publicly and continually educating the children of Bremerton since January 1913. What was first created as the Charleston School District eventually merged and became a single Bremerton School District. Over the years, the actual building footprint of the school has occupied various portion of the property, but the ongoing education of area students has never stopped. Entire generations of local families have made their way through the school at Naval Avenue along with a legion of children from families who have served both the Navy and the shipyard over the years. I am very proud that my own child was a student at Naval Avenue for the first four years of his elementary education. Earlier this year I wrote that the celebration would be coming and put the call out for information, photos and stories to be submitted to the centennial committee in preparation for this event. Over the course of this past year, a host of committee and PTA volunteers have been receiving, organizing and compiling everything that was submitted. They are still looking to collect more information from those who may have something to share. On January 25, 2013, from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. a showcase of the Naval Avenue School, past to the present will be celebrated. It will be a thank you to all the members of the community who have been involved in some way with the school over these past 100 years. This milestone marks a true accomplishment of continued public service for the city and community of Bremerton. The committee is still looking for community sponsors to be a part of this special event. They are asking that any organizations or individuals who are interested in assisting with funding or displays to please contact the host organization which is the Naval Avenue PTA at email@example.com or by mail at this address, 900 Olympic Avenue, Bremerton, WA 98312. I encourage all Bremerton residents to plan for and think about attending this coming celebration. For something that truly does come once every 100 years. I would like to personally express my thanks to the members of the Naval Avenue PTA and the Centennial Committee for all of the hard work and hours they have put in. They are setting a fantastic example of community service and involvement for their own children and the next generation to emulate. Congratulations Naval Avenue Early Learning Center.

Stevenson High School plans purchase of 800 iPads for next school year
Stevenson High School student Kevin Hautzinger, of Prairie View, uses an iPad in the library at Stevenson High School in October. | Brian O'Mahoney~for Sun-Times Media
Article Extras
Updated: April 1, 2013 6:49AM
LINCOLNSHIRE — Parents of future Stevenson High School students: hold off on buying that iPad for future Patriots.
The school is picking one out already.
A new technology program that goes into effect this fall will put 2,000 of the Apple tablets into the hands of next year's freshmen and sophomores. After graduation, the hardware might be theirs to keep, and the classes below them will receive products of their own. The program is set to be funded through textbook fees, and will be spread out through four school years.
"It's one of those things that's catching fire," said Mark Michelini, Stevenson's assistant superintendent for business, at the Feb. 11 School Board meeting. "They ask 'How come my class doesn't have iPads?'
"We'll equip each student in those classes," he continued. "We're going to pass those costs onto the students, in the form of textbook fees."
The School Board approved the latest, $1.8 million phase of the Stevenson Mobile Academic Real-time Technology program during that meeting. The devices will be last year's iPad 2 models as the district purchased 800.
The one decision yet to be finalized, however, is if students can keep their four-year-old tablets after they leave Stevenson.
"We have not decided whether students will keep their iPads when they graduate," spokesman Jim Conrey wrote in an email Monday. "It has been discussed."
Each device will cost Stevenson $658, with Apple's two-year warranty. Board President Bruce Lubin said Monday that while the school expects to break even, the major overhaul should result in major savings in paper consumption, computer maintenance and more.
"Right now, the district has over 1,500 computers for student use," Lubin said. "This could get rid of 1,200 of those 1,500 computers. We're not doing this to save money, we're doing this for the kids."
Tablets are sweeping through schools nationwide, in part because of their capabilities with audio and video as well as reading, and in part because of their handiness. Students can carry their entire year's worth of books in their hand.
Stevenson also plans to buy 280 MacBook Pro laptops for classrooms, and 20 iMac desktop computers earmarked for special education.

New author Laura Hughes will be at the Altus Public Library on Saturday, Feb. 9, from 1 to 3 p.m. to talk about her new book for young adults, The Sara Chronicles-The Beginning Book 1. The program is free and open to all, especially Tweens and Teens. Laura will have copies of her books for sale and for autographing. For more information, contact the Altus Public Library at 580-477-2890. Laura is a native of Oklahoma and lives in a small town with her daughter Sara and her husband David. To find out more about her books visit her blog at http://laursday-laura.blogsport.com/. An excerpt from Laura's book is spine-tingling look at what takes place in The Beginning, the first book in The Sara Chronicles: Someone had made a terrible mistake twelve years ago and placed a homeless child in the care of Janet and Hugh Finklestein. This child's name was Sara. She knew nothing of her life before the Finklestein's, just that life with them was miserable. They did not feed her, did not love her and pretty much left her to fend for herself. Sara's life changes dramatically one day when she is transported to the Land of the Keepers, a strange place where nothing is quite what it seems, and danger is around every bend.
Sara is told by the Keepers that an evil group called the Garren has been causing trouble in the land. People all over the land have been disappearing; those that are left have begun to change dramatically from kind and loving neighbors to hateful, violent bullies. Sara is told that she has special powers given to her at birth that will help save the people of this land. What the power is exactly they cannot tell her, but they do know that she will have to find two other children just like herself to help defeat the Garren. One child has the power to control people's minds, the other had the power to move objects with his mind.
The tricky part is to find the other two with no help from the Keepers and no clue as to who they are or where they are located. All they can tell her is that she will know them when she sees them. And by the way figure out what your power is and learn how to use it. No problem right?

Man pushed in front of NYC subway; photo snapped just before death
NEW YORK (AP) — The wife of a New York City man who was pushed onto subway tracks to his death by a mumbling stranger says she and her husband had argued before the tragedy.
Ki-Suck Han of Queens died at a hospital shortly after being hit by an oncoming train Monday at the Times Square subway station.
His widow tells the New York Post she tried to call him after their 11 a.m. fight, but he never picked up.
The Post says one of its freelance photographers was on the platform as the ordeal unfolded. Umar Abbasi says he tried to warn the subway operator by flashing his camera. One of his photos shows Han on the tracks, arms on the platform, looking at the train as it bears down on him.
A report on USA Today examines whether it was ethical for the photographer to shoot a picture and for the New York Post to run that photo. The freelancer reportedly said that he was snapping photos to alert the driver with his flashes, though some believe he should have tried to help the man.

Tiffany's Dazzling Designs at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts

The most important exhibition in decades devoted to Louis Comfort Tiffanys opulent creations in glass will open on May 29 at the
Virginia Museum of Fine Arts
. Richmond is the only U.S. stop for Tiffany: Color and Light, which will continue until August 15.
The exhibition includes more than 170 works by Louis Comfort Tiffany the master of American glass and his studio. Handblown glass objects, leaded-glass windows, lamps, and other decorative items from Tiffanys studios are featured along with oil paintings, watercolors, and mosaics. Fourteen objects come from VMFAs internationally renowned collection formed by Sydney and Frances Lewis.
Our own collection of Tiffany treasures has earned the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts the distinction of being the exclusive U.S. venue for the works of this genius of American Decorative arts, says Director Alex Nyerges. This international master of American glass achieves original and spectacular effects in his handblown vessels, leaded-glass windows, lamps, and other decorative objects.
Born in 1848, Louis Comfort Tiffany was the son of Charles Lewis Tiffany, the founder of Tiffany & Company in New York City. A young man of means, Louis studied art in New York and in Paris before he traveled in Europe from 1865 to 1869. He visited Europe again and traveled in North Africa in 1870-71 while developing his skills as an artist. He especially appreciated the vividly colored glass mosaics and other artworks he saw in Egypt, Africa, and elsewhere.
After returning to the United States, Tiffany continued to work as an artist, but gradually his interest turned to glass design and production. He appreciated the colors, forms, textures and light in medieval leaded-glass windows he had seen in European churches. However, there was little use of glass in contemporary Western art, and Tiffany developed the materials he used. He returned repeatedly to the French capital and in 1894 began exhibiting his glass with the Parisian art dealer Siegfried Bing. At the 1900 Paris Worlds Fair, Tiffanys booth featured the spectacular punchbowl, which is in VMFAs collection, and he was acknowledged as the foremost American designer.
Tiffany established the Tiffany Glass Company, which became Tiffany Studios in 1900. In 1894, he patented his Favrile glass, adapting the Latin word for handmade as the name of his handblown glass.
At one point, Tiffany Studios employed more than 300 artisans, some of them women, to bring Tiffanys designs and ideas to life.
The Art
The celebrated creations of Tiffanys various companies include lamps with colorful leaded-glass shades that helped to diffuse the new electric light. Many of the shades were made of glass left over from the creation of leaded-glass windows and often featured floral designs in glass and jewels.
VMFA objects featured in the exhibition include the Cobweb Lamp designed by Clara Driscoll in 1902. The lamp features leaded glass, bronze, and glass mosaics. Intricate patterns define the cobwebs on the lamps multicolored leaded-glass shade.
Among works in the exhibition are more than 20 leaded-glass windows drawn from major museums and private collections throughout the world. The Magnolia window was designed in 1900 by Agnes Northrop for the Paris Worlds Fair that year. This window is now in the permanent collection of the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia.
The Angel of the Resurrection window, designed by Frederick Wilson in 1904-5, was installed at the American Presbyterian Church in Montreal. It joined the collection of the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts in 2008 and is one of nine windows from Montreal on display for the first time in the United States.
A Mounted Vase with Peacock-Feather Decoration, owned by the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, N.Y., is one of more than 60 vases made by Tiffany Studios in the exhibition. The 1898-99 work is comprised of handblown glass, rubies, as well as enamel by Eugene Feuillâtre and a silver mount designed by Edward Colonna.
