ISLAND LIFE SHORTS
Nutrition advice for everyday eating

Advertiser Staff and News Services

With the recently released revised federal dietary guidelines come questions: Are the guidelines realistic? What do they mean?

The new book "Nutrition for Life," by nutritionist Lisa Hark, director of the nutrition program at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, and Darwin Deen, a professor of family medicine at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York, offers a no-fad approach to eating well and reaching a healthy weight.

The book is available through www.nutritionforlifebooks.com; $30 hardcover (DK Publishing).



Tuned to garage rock on Sundays

Steven Van Zandt

Steven Van Zandt has called it "the coolest music ever made." That would be garage rock — everything from straight-outta-the-'60s album cuts from the likes of The Byrds and The Who to more current tracks from Steve Earle and The Hives.

If you've never soaked in the music of Laika & the Cosmonauts and the Hawaii Mud Bombers, tune in to "Little Steven's Underground Garage." The Van-Zandt-hosted nationally syndicated show gets down with its bad self Sundays from 10 p.m. to midnight on KPOI 105.9 FM. And maybe you'll recognize Patrick's "Under My Rock" from "The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie" as the garage rock that it is.



Billie Joe Armstrong

FINAL WORD

Billie Joe Armstrong | Green Day, in Entertainment Weekly:

"U2 started out more or less as a punk band and wound up one of the biggest bands in the world. I think it's OK to want that."
