Next year marks the 100th anniversary of the Associated Students of the University of Hawai‘i, and President-elect Richard Mizusawa wants to make his upcoming term memorable. “We usually have a big event happening every semester, but because it’s our centennial I want to have … even monthly activities,” he said. Voting for next year’s ASUH senators and executive offi cers took place via MyUH April 2-10. Mizusawa, who has held the position of ASUH secretary for two years, will take over for current ASUH President Anna Koethe, who will be graduating. “I think ASUH’s outlook is really bright right now. Richard has two years of experience … I think that his senate will hit the ground running,” said Koethe. Kimberly Turalva will be the new vice president, Rachel Isara will be treasurer, and Benjamin Tran will replace Mizusawa as secretary. “We’re already in senate, so we already do work together,” said Isara of the other newly elected executive offi cers.

APRIL 14 HARRASSMENT IN THE HALL A Frear Hall resident was harassed by a fellow resident to the point that Campus Security was called and the offending female student was removed from her residence to a different hall. She was issued a trespass notice and informed that she was not to enter Frear Hall for a period of one year.
APRIL 13 SERIOUS CONTRABAND Several residents of Hale Aloha Lokelani were evicted from their room after a significant amount of drug paraphernalia was found there. These items included lighter fluid and several bongs. Reports state that the residents were cooperative.
APRIL 13 THE GUILTY AND THE ANGRY Another drug paraphernalia offense occurred when a man called to be let in his room after being locked out. When resident advisers let him in, there was a makeshift bong in plain sight. The other occupant of the room tried to conceal the item before CS arrived. When it was eventually found, he verbally attacked the officers with obscenities.
APRIL 10 COMPUTER-LAB SHENANIGANS A regular user in the Hamilton Library computer area was accosted by a young man who complained about him taking too long. He was described as threatening and rude, asking, “Do you want to go outside and settle this?” Neither of the men were students.

News ASUH: Visible goals, concrete progress from front page
G OA L S F O R N E X T Y E A R
Isara, who has served as the senator for the College of Arts and Sciences, is currently on the Student Affairs Committee, which deals with issues like the athletic fee and U-Passes. “When I carry on to being treasurer ... I kind of want to continue that athletic fee thing and see – do kids really pay for that to go to games, or do they want to pay more, do they want to pay less, or not want to pay at all?” she said. When asked what his focus will be as ASUH president, Mizusawa listed issues like parking, housing, security and fees. “My primary goal is to advocate on issues that directly affect students, that they can see [changes] happen,” he said, though he stressed that so far no plans are “set in stone.” “Another thing that I want to look into is security. … Right now there have been more happenings, and students have been affected by that,” he said.
MAKING ASUH VISIBLE
An issue that both Koethe and Mizusawa were concerned about was fostering student engagement with ASUH. Looking back on the year, Koethe listed getting the UPass re-implemented and presenting ASUH’s investment policy to the Board of Regents as major accomplishments. But, she said, these things might not interest students.
“We’ve done our best this year to try to engage the student body,” said Koethe, listing events like October Fest, Mardi Gras, homecoming, campus cleanup and the blood drive. Mizusawa also listed student involvement as a major goal. “[I want to] make ASUH more visible to students …. make it visible in the sense that they come out to more things,” he said.
A DVO C AT I N G F O R S T U D E N T S S I N C E 1912 Mizusawa and the other new executive officers will step into their roles at ASUH’s Centennial Crossover Celebration banquet on May 2. Isara shared that hundreds of past ASUH senators have been invited to the banquet as part of the anniversar y celebration. “As a senate ... we’ve accomplished so much in a hundred years, so we want to celebrate all we’ve done for our student constituents over the years,” said Mizusawa. He also said he plans to incorporate information about the past into present efforts to get students involved. “ We’re going to look more into things we’ve done in the past … and see if we can tr y to highlight that on campus so that people will know [that] all of that has happened because of ASUH,” he said.

Representing locals in ‘Hawai‘i Five-0’ M ARIA K ANAI Features Editor Actor Taylor Wily has been a fan of TV show “Hawai‘i Five-O” since he was a child, but he never dreamed that he would land a role as big guy Kamekona in its 2010 reboot. Although he has been acting for about 20 years, he considers the past two years on set his breakthrough. “I was getting burned out,” said the Polynesian actor. “But while I was driving down to the audition, I told myself … I was just going to be myself.”
BEING HIMSELF COURTESY OF ROBERT D. TOLENTINO PHOTOGRAPHY
On the show, Kamekona is a shave ice/shrimp truck entrepreneur and a frequent local
informant for the “Five-0” team. He always has something snarky to say – especially to the haoles – and often provides comic relief. Wily is one of the only actors in the show from Hawai‘i. “When I see all the local people so excited about the show, it makes me understand that I’m in a role that is very important for our people,” he said. Born and raised on the North Shore, Wily hopes to see more locals in the acting business. “I feel a responsibility,” he said. “I feel like representing [the locals], so I get that nervous feeling on set. I gotta go 100 percent.” Looking back on his first audition, Wily has realized the importance of being himself in playing Kamekona well.
Aloha Students! The Associated Students of the University of Hawaii (ASUH), your undergraduate student government is conducting two surveys this semester, and we want your feedback. ASUH is looking to gauge and understand the student bodyʼs attitude towards the mandatory $50 per semester Athletic Fee as well as safety and security on the UH Manoa campus. The surveys are open to all part-time and full-time undergraduates and graduate students at UH Manoa. The surveys are now available online. In order to take the surveys, please follow the instructions below: 1. Log in to your MyUH account at http://myuh.hawaii.edu. 2. Click on the ASUH Elections tab. 3. Click on the link that reads, “ASUH Survey Spring 2012” 4. Click on the links for the Athletic Fee survey and the Campus Security survey, and enter your responses for each. Both of these surveys are very brief and should take no more than 5 minutes to complete. These issues are very important to ASUH. We need your feedback in order to best represent and work for our students. The surveys are now available online and will close on Friday April 20, 2012 at 4:00 PM. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our office. Mahalo, The 99th Senate Associated Students of the University of Hawaii Phone: (808) 956-4822 Email: asuh@hawaii.edu Website: http://asuh.hawaii.edu
“[The writers] take whatever strengths I have, and it’s easier to do work like that when you’re being yourself,” he said. He even shares Kamekona’s love for shrimp trucks. His favorite? “If I had to pick one right now, it might be Hui’s shrimp truck,” he said. He hopes that any changes to his character in the next season will be beneficial to the show. “I’m hoping that they make whatever changes they need to make to keep the show here as long as possible,” said Wily. “It’s so important to our people and the kids … to keep having us [be] one of the top shows out there.”
PA R T Y W I T H F I V E - 0 In honor of the end of sea-
son two, Wily is throwing a “Wrap ‘Um” party for fans who want the red carpet experience, separate from the CBS premiere on Waikīkī beach. The party will include music by Fiji and Cradle 2 Grave, along with drinks and food by Gordon Biersch. Wily has also invited cast and crew from set, so there may be some exclusive star power at the scene. “Don’t be shy,” said Wily. “This is for the fans – they make the show.”
Taylor Wily’s Wrap’ Um Party (21+) Cost: $24-$35 Where: Aloha Tower When: April 21, 9 p.m.-1:30 a.m.

Mouths to feed For Hawai‘i Foodbank, hunger is no game A SHLEY WOOD Contributing Writer
Food is essential to human survival, yet many people in Hawai‘i struggle to acquire this basic necessity. But the Hawai‘i Foodbank works with various organizations and charities to provide food for the needy. “Nearly 50,000 pounds of food goes out a day, so that’s about a little less than a million pounds of food a month that we distribute,” said Megan Young, a development assistant at the Hawai‘i Foodbank.
BEHIND THE SCENES
The 23,668 square-foot facility is filled with boxes packed with canned goods that line the aisles, as well as ceiling-high shelves stocked with pallets of food. “A lot of times, people will donate to the Foodbank and they can’t
really visualize where it goes to because until you’ve seen it,” Young said. “But it’s a big operation here.” The food supply in the warehouse is enough to last for an average of 12 days. Donations and purchases made by the Foodbank come in daily to replenish the stockpile. After food donations are transferred to the main floor and placed in their appropriate area, representatives from Hawai‘i Foodbank’s 250 member agencies come to shop at the warehouse.
T H E H O L LY WO O D A P P ROAC H The Hawai‘i Foodbank’s parent company, Feeding America – the nation’s largest hunger-relief organization – hopes to shed light on the issue through the recent release of the film “The Hunger Games.”
ASHLEY WOOD / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I
Megan Young (L) is a development assistant at the Hawai‘i Foodbank, which feeds roughly 180,000 people statewide every year. “Unlike the characters in ‘The Hunger Games,’ we do not live in a country in which food is scarce,” said Vicki Escarra, president and CEO of Feeding America in a press release. “Thanks to our partnership with Lionsgate, ‘The Hunger Games’ will help us expand much-needed public awareness of the issue and encourage people to join Feeding America in our commitment to helping ensure that everyone has enough to eat.”
H I T T I N G H OM E Though not everyone has
personally experienced food insecurity, Young’s involvement with the Hawai‘i Foodbank has made her more aware of the food crisis within the community. One particular moment that resonated with Young was when she had to give a talk about donating to the Hawai‘i Foodbank at an elementary school and a young boy asked, “Ms. Young, if we don’t have enough food at home to feed our family, do we have to donate?” In that moment, she said, “My
whole world was rocked, so that immediately reminded me that it’s everybody,” Young said. “We’re not only helping the homeless – our homeless population isn’t that big. It’s single-parent incomes, two-parent incomes [too].”

JUSTIN F R AANCISCO Associate Opinions Editor Women would be better sexual superheroes. They harness an abundance of sexual power, they bear life and they are capable of experiencing orgasms one after another, while men are often depleted after the fi rst bout. Well, men, it’s time to know that we too have the superhero capacity to achieve multiple orgasms. However, before we can even begin to talk about achieving multiple orgasms, we must combat our greatest kryptonite: premature ejaculation. We have all been there, consumed by the thrall of the thrust, when aghh, shoot, one too many thrusts breaks the barrier and, embarrassed, we gush in weakness. The inadequate minute of this adventure is followed by an hour of awkward silence wherein we swear this never happens and quickly fall asleep to avoid further explanation. Thankfully, there are some effective practices to delay ejaculation and eventually enable you to achieve multiple, continuous, full body orgasms. Three methods of delaying ejaculation are the squeeze, the tug, and the press.
1.
The squeeze basically involves clutching your head, thereby blocking the urethra. This method isn’t ideal, since it attempts to suppress the release at the last moment. Because the ejaculate has already been passed through the vas deferens, physiologically, it has no place to go but up and out. But if you manage to subdue the urge to ejaculate with this method, it will usually take your erection with it.
2.
Another method is the tug. As you work up an erection, the scrotum is pulled up close to your body to give it the warmth required to produce and propel semen. By pulling your testes away in the heat of the moment, you might be able to extinguish the rush. This method is useful because it can be used without exiting your partner.
3.
Lastly, try pressing the perineum, also known as the taint or gooch (the area between the scrotum and anus). During an erection, the area is slightly notched due to the tensing of the pubbocoxygennus muscle in the area. When pressing, you should feel an indentation to make sure you are pressing fi rmly enough to ensure pressure on the prostate gland, since it is the prostate that contracts and expands to expel ejaculate. This method is nearly foolproof, and you’ll notice the immediate release in your arousal level. There are other techniques that will help you control your ejaculation and eventually enable you to become multi-orgasmic, but they require more practice and an understanding of your arousal level. Try strengthening your PC muscle and doing breathing exercises. You can learn more about these in the book “The Multi-Orgasmic Man” by Mantak Chia and Douglas Abrams. The two authors talk about the ancient practice of sexual Kung Fu, articulating that by delaying ejaculation, men learn to control bodily responses, enabling them with superhuman feats of stronger erections, longer endurance, more energy and continuous full body orgasms capable of keeping up with the most elite sexual superwomen.

‘Bows look to continue domination K EVIN FOX Staff Writer The No. 14/18 Hawai‘i softball team put together a series to remember last week. The Rainbow Wahine swept Louisiana Tech in their entire threegame series via the mercy rule. And although the team isn’t ranked No. 1, they feel like they can beat anybody. “I’d say [our team may be] one of the best. I wouldn’t put it past us that we could be the best,” said junior pitcher Kaia Parnaby, who was named the Verizon WAC Pitcher of the Week for April 9-15. “We worked together to produce three good games, and if we keep hitting the way we’re doing, fielding the way we did this weekend, we could potentially be the best team.” The ’Bows have outscored opponents 243-49 so far and lead their opponents 55-12 on home runs. UH pitchers have allowed 37 earned runs, while their opponents have allowed 206.

LLook for it 4-23-12
INDIVIDUAL ACHIEVEMENT Parnaby’s first Pitcher of the Week award this season is the fourth of her career. She is 12-2 in the season and has struck out 97 batters, allowing 12 walks through 92.1 innings. Similarly, first baseman Makani Duhaylonsod-Kaleimamahu was honored with her first WAC Hitter of the Week of the season, the second of her career. She led the ’Bows with a .875 batting average, going 7-for-8 while smacking a double, two home runs and eight RBIs. She made no errors in sixteen innings at first base. “Hitting home runs really excites the whole team, and everyone gets really excited and is able to build on that,” said senior center fielder Kelly Majam, who led the team in home runs last weekend with three. Majam also leads the team in home runs this season, with 11, and 42 runs scored. She has now hit 50 career home runs. Majam continued, “[Head coach Bob Coolen] always says
ERIC ALCANTARA / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I
Junior shortstop Jessica Iwata leads the team with a .396 batting average and 40 RBIs. Iwata and the Rainbow Wahine hit the road to play Nevada this weekend. that hitting is contagious, and for us it defi nitely is, especially with home runs. Home runs are contagious for us, and we hit a lot of them. When one of us hits a home run, it tends to come in bunches, so that’s just real exciting, and it’s exciting for the fans as well.” Senior Stephanie R icketts has been honored as WAC Pitcher of the Week four times this season. She went 2- 0 this weekend and has improved her record on the season to 22-2, 7- 0 in the WAC. She has pitched 182 strikeouts against 68 walks in 161.2 innings.
LOOKING FORWARD
After lowering Louisiana’s record to 11-26 on the season, 5-6 in the WAC, the ’Bows are off to face Nevada (16-29, 6-6 WAC). “[It would] be awesome if we made it all the way to the World Series without losing a game [from here on out]; that would be amazing,” Majam said. “I think going game-by-game, especially in the WAC, I think you could defi nitely go in and win all the rest of our games. That’d be really exciting. We’re capable of it. I know we’re capable of playing really good softball.”
