sheraton hotels : Sheraton Hotels are a big phenomenon here in Hawaii, USA, asthey are throughout the world. They are not very big at all,hwowever, in light of the following article:Following is one of those newspaper stories that depressinglyop up on occasion. From the "Montgomery Journal" fromMontgomery County MD USA outside of Washington DC"BANGKOK Thailand - A 2-year-old elephant kept by a resorthotel as a tourist attraction has died of malnutrition, thedirector of an elephant hospital said yesterday."Yooyee, a young female elephant, died at the hospital inLampang, 315 miles north of Bangkok, on Saturday. Her stomachwas swollen and infected and her feet were inflamed, saidhospital officials. "Yooyee was mistreated," said SoraidaSawala, the hospital's director."Soraida put most of the blame on the elephant's trainer,instead of on the Sheraton Grande Laguna Beach hotel on theisland of Phuket, 430 miles southwest of Bangkok. She said thetrainer only fed Yooyee boiled rice with salt because it wascheaper than fruit and it would also prevent her from growinglarge. Smaller elephants are favored by hotels because theyare less threatening and considered cute, Soraida said."

Aloha!================================== ======================================== === A 29-year-old Kalihi man with a history of domestic violence is inpolice custody tonight after police say he shot and killed his wife yesterdaymorning. According to witness accounts, Saldy Marzan arrived at a second-floorKalihi Street apartment shortly after 9:30 a.m. and began arguing with hisestranged wife, 24-year-old Arlene Marzan. Arlene Marzan, who had moved out of a family shelter two days prior,reportedly started shouting that her husband had a gun. Fernando Marzan, Saldy Marzan's brother, told the _Honolulu Star-Bulletin_ that a struggle ensued. Arlene Marzan fell to the ground, and thegun went off. The Marzans' three children, ages 2, 4 and 6, had just gone downstairs. Saldy Marzan fled, and Arlene Marzan was taken to Queen's Medical Centerwhere she died of a gunshot wound to the chest. Saldy Marzan turned himself in to police this morning. He was taken toSt. Francis Medical Center for treatment of unspecified injuries. Arlene and Saldy Marzan had been married for 8 years, but according topolice records there were numerous problems. Neighbors said there werefrequent domestic disputes for which police had to be called. In fact, Saldy Marzan has been convicted three times for abuse, eachtime receiving probation. The case, which stretches back to 1993, hasprompted criticism of the court system and has pushed domestic violence tothe forefront of local issues. "If somebody has already gotten probation and is given a lesser pleaonce, then asks for it again and asks for it a third time -- that'sintolerable," City Prosecutor Peter Carlisle said today. On April 14, 1993, Saldy Marzan had a restraining order issued againsthim after he threatened his wife's life one month prior. According to courtdocuments, he also used various drugs, including marijuana and crystalmethamphetamine. Then, Saldy Marzan was arrested April 23 of last year for third-degreeassault. He pled no contest and received one year of probation. On Sept. 16, another restraining order was issued for terroristicthreatening. Under the order, which was to stand for three years, SaldyMarzan was to stay away from his wife except for limited child visitation. Saldy Marzan allegedly violated the order, however, calling andthreatening his wife. Arlene Marzan failed to appear at a Jan. 6 court hearing for herhusband's violations, however, and he remained free. sheraton hotels : ---------------------------------------- -------------------------------==:]>- People have more to fear in their own living rooms than on dark streets,according to a preliminary report released this week by the state AttorneyGeneral's office. Hawai`i prisons currently house 545 sex offenders, the report states,and in the last three years there were over 1,000 people arrested for sexualassault. According to the report, victims knew their attackers in more than 85percent of cases investigated between 1993 and 1996. That figure jumps tomore than 90 percent in cases involving victims 18 years old and younger. "So many victims and alleged offenders knew one another, very oftenlived in same home, or were neighbors or acquaintances," Paul Perrone,spokesman for the state Attorney General's office, told KHNL. "A lot of people cling to the myth of a lurking stranger in the bushes,"Perrone said. "Not to say that doesn't occur, but I don't think that's thebest way to characterize sexual assault." The report also found 10 percent of those arrested for sexual assaulthad prior arrests for similar offenses, and one out of four was unemployed. Also, of all ethnic groups, Caucasians made up the largest portion ofalleged sex offenders -- 27 percent. The report, in its final form, will be used to lobby the stateLegislature for tougher sexual assault laws, Perrone said. sheraton hotels : ---------------------------------------- -------------------------------==:]>- If Hilton has its way, it will control all but two hotels along theWaikiki waterfront. In a plan announced yesterday, Hilton is amassing a $6.5 billion hostiletakeover of ITT Sheraton, a move that will put over 10,000 Hawai`i hotelrooms under the Hilton-Sheraton conglomerate. Hilton will reportedly pay half in cash, and pay the other half inHilton shares. The company will also assume $4 billion in ITT Sheraton debt. In the islands, Hilton currently controls 4,200 hotel rooms while ITTSheraton hotels has 6,000 rooms. Put together, the deal will surpass Outrigger -- which manages 9,000rooms in 20 hotels -- as the largest hotel company in the state. If the Hilton takeover succeeds, the Outrigger Waikiki and OutriggerReef will be the only beachfront hotels not under Hilton's control. Hilton officials said they will keep the Sheraton name on the acquiredhotels, and contract HFS Inc. -- which also holds the names Days Inns andHoward Johnson -- to manage them. Nationally, Hilton runs 240 hotels and 16 casinos, while ITT Sheratonruns 420 hotels and 14 casinos. ITT Sheraton executives have said they will advise their shareholderswithin the next week.
