THE LEFT LANE
Healthy kids go BAM!

Advertiser Staff and News Services

Children who have questions on personal health now have another resource: BAM! (Body and Mind), a new Web site created by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

BAM! — www.bam.gov — features information on topics such as physical fitness and asthma, designed to be kid-friendly in an interactive way. Its goal is to encourage healthy lifestyles and prevent risky behaviors. The site is aimed at children 9 to 13 years old.


Big-bike bidding

A 1979 Harley Davidson motorcycle, the featured silent auction item at Special Olympics Hawai'i's "A Very Special Vegas" event Saturday, is on display for prospective bidders at Kahala Mall today.

"A Very Special Vegas" will be held at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel. The "casino night" will include gourmet food, comedy, magic and music. For information, call 943-8808, ext. 24.


'Baywatch' bizarre

Details are emerging about plans for the plot of the two-hour Fox TV movie, "Baywatch: Hawaiian Wedding," now being filmed in Hawai'i.

Fifteen original cast members are in Hawai'i through Sept. 27 for the filming: Star David Hasselhoff joins former "Baywatch" babes, including Pamela Anderson, Yasmine Bleeth, Gena Lee Nolin, Nicole Eggert, Carmen Electra, Angelica Bridges, Brande Roderick and Stacy Kamano. In the testosterone brigade are Billy Warlock (taking a break from "General Hospital"), John Allen Nelson, Jeremy Jackson, Michael Bergin, pictured, and Jason Momoa.

Alexandra Paul, whose deceased character, Stephanie, exploded in 1997, will appear, playing a woman named Allison, who has herself surgically altered to look like Stephanie in a plot to score a wedding with Hasselhoff's Mitch. Bleeth and Nolin (whose character, Neely, was once wed to Mitch and now wants him back) stop the wedding, prompting an all-out Paul vs. Nolin swimming-pool catfight.

"I punch her," says Nolin, "then it all gets wet and crazy." Adds Paul: "We go down a slide during the fight. It's the Joan Collins/Linda Evans catfight of the 21st century."
