BOE still contemplating school surfing program

Six months after the state Board of Education seemed ready to recommend surfing as a high-school sport, some board members are having reservations, and will now look at whether surfing should be part of a broader ocean-sports policy.

The potential delay is a disappointment to many in the surfing community, who have fought for several years to make surfing — Hawai'i's best-known pastime — equal to football, basketball and other high-school sports.

"It's cool that they're trying to incorporate other water sports. But I think they should just hurry up and do it," said Reis Harney, a Kahuku High & Intermediate School senior who surfs on the school's club team.

The BOE's committee on special programs will discuss a new policy tomorrow. Since the school board last heard testimony on surfing, others have asked to make kayaking a high-school sport, so some board members want to examine whether there should be an ocean or water-sports policy. Kayaking, if it were approved as a sport, would likely take place on the Ala Wai Canal.

Every Sunday since the beginning of the war in Iraq, the Rev. John R. Sharp has asked his parishioners at Govans Presbyterian Church in Baltimore to pray for American troops.

Today, as his congregation of more than 300 gathers for Easter Sunday services, Sharp will ask his parishioners for more than a prayer. He will ask them for hope.

23. Nothing about the mercenary hostage?

Here's mine:



Top of the page was the American hostage in Falluja. To the left was a story about a local soldier who was killed.

The big type story in the middle of the page was a pretty bland headline and intro leading into 'the document'. Nothing too titilating.
