...extinction, the wwf last year commissioned industry consultants to calculate the real tonnage of tuna catches. Its findings, released earlier this month, show widespread violations of the Mediterranean's iccat quota of 32,000 tons a year, mostly by industrial companies whose farm-fattened exports escape rigid scrutiny. Bill Hogarth, the chairman of iccat, says he finds the wwf findings convincing. "If we continue like this the stock will crash," says Hogarth, who heads the U.S. government's fisheries service at the Department of Commerce's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Hogarth blames lax European government enforcement...
...guru on the Today show, and "My Search for a French Tickler in Japan" by young Mimi Sheraton, later the Times food critic and a food writer for Time. (I didn't read to the end to see if she found one.) "The Brothel in Art" featured works by Hogarth, Utamaro, Toulouse-Lautrec, Picasso. The book excerpt was from the 18th century novel Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure, or Fanny Hill, which the Supreme Court would absolve from the charge of pornography on the same day it condemned Ginzburg...
...employment. That's the biggest issue with the centralization of all these small towns." Apart from a pub, police station and school that service a largely Aboriginal population, there are few jobs. "I've lived here all my life, so it's not so good," says beanie-wearing Ronald Hogarth, 50. "Well, the pub's good." Elder Lorraine Williams, 48, calls it "a sleepy little town" whose main store recently closed down because there were "not enough customers." So sleepy, in fact, that written across a soccer ball found abandoned by the road is the instruction: kick da f---king...
...enter, strip naked and allow a red beam to scan their bodies for 15 sec. was an achievement in itself. "It was like trying to get a mob of sheep through a gate," says Kath Finlayson. "They'd all break and go everywhere." Here the cowboy qualities of Ronald Hogarth were called upon. As Finlayson tells it, "I said, 'Hogie, look you haven't had a bloody missus for 30, 40 years, come on. No one wants to look at what you've got anyway. How about you go in?' We eventually got five or six bucks...
...beauty of Sacco's work is that he gets to have it both ways. He combines the verisimilitude of documentary imagery with the arrangement of the most carefully scripted fiction. One panel, of a bunch of jovial paramilitaries enjoying their booty, laughing, sprawled on couches, seems lifted from Hogarth in its formal arrangement of bodies. Other, subtler uses of imagery seem at play too. One panel has the na?ve Sacco reaching for his wallet as the waitress' round serving tray forms a halo around his head. Sacco's panels in "The Fixer" will reveal more each time you examine them...
