Coconut Wireless Veterans Group Sues County, Mayor Tavares

L

ast week, a Molokai veterans group filed suit against Maui County, Mayor Charmaine Tavares and several other officials, claiming that they have endured “years of senseless, relentless roadblocks” in their effort to build a veterans center in Kaunakakai.

Molokai Veterans Caring For Veterans says the County has hamstrung the project since 2005 and refused to grant a building permit because of a dispute over waterline upgrades. The suit alleges that Tavares “threatened” Molokai Veterans director Larry Helm “in an attempt to retaliate against Helm and Molokai Veterans

The Molokai Veterans are seeking unspecified monetary damages, attorneys’ fees and injunctive and declatory relief.

Mateo Challenge Heads to High Court

W

ith the general election less than two months away, a challenge against Council Chair Danny Mateo that argues he’s ineligible to run for reelection because of term limits is moving to the state Supreme Court.

The challenge—brought by Nellie Laird-Woods of Lahaina—hinges on a portion of the County Charter that prohibits Councilmembers from serving “more than

The suit alleges that Mayor Tavares “threatened” Molokai Veterans director Larry Helm and that members of the Mayor’s staff “attempted to coerce Molokai Veterans into ‘minimizing’ their protest.” and prevent them from demonstrating in a public forum” and that members of the Mayor’s staff “attempted to coerce Molokai Veterans into ‘minimizing’ their protest and gave Molokai Veterans misleading information to persuade them to comply.”

Calls to the Mayor’s office weren’t returned at press time, but on September 20 County spokesperson Mahina Martin—who is named as a defendant— told the Honolulu Star-Advertiser that the suit “makes sensationalized claims” and implied it might be politically motivated, saying it was “curious” that it was filed the day before the primary election.

five consecutive full terms in office.” Mateo was appointed to the Molokai seat in 2002 after the death of Councilmember Pat Kawano and went on to win reelection three times. He’s running unopposed this year and, according to Laird-Woods’s interpretation, will have violated the Charter by the end of his next term.

County Clerk Jeff Kuwada dismissed the challenge in August, and earlier this month the Second Circuit Court punted the issue, citing lack of jurisdiction. The Supreme Court petition claims Kuwada “utterly failed to perform his duty” and asks for “a judgement disqualifying [Mateo] from

running for the office of Councilmember.”

Aiona Frames the Debates

T

he confetti had scarcely settled on their respective victory parties when Republican gubernatorial candidate Duke Aiona issued a statement challenging Democrat Neil Abercrombie to a series of debates. And Aiona went further than that, specifying the number of debates and the topics that should be covered: jobs and the economy; education; state budget and spending; Native Hawaiian issues; health and human services; and energy.

“My opponent said he wants to debate the issues, and this format will ensure the important issues facing our working families and small businesses are front and center in this campaign,” said Aiona. “We must move past sound bites and offer real solutions.”

Aiona’s list is noteworthy not because of what’s included, but what’s left off. No mention of social issues or “moral values,” two things that matter to his religious base but that could distract from the message of fiscal responsibility the GOP is trying to sell.

Responding to the challenge, Abercrombie told Hawaii News Now that he’s willing to debate Aiona but gave no indication that he’ll acquiesce to his opponent’s format.

Abercrombie also pointed out that while he and Mufi Hannemann debated frequently ahead of the primary election, Aiona stayed on the sidelines.

Census Figures Paint Bleak Picture

S

ome statistics challenge conventional wisdom; others merely confirm what we already knew. A report released last week by the U.S. Census Bureau titled “Income, Poverty, and Health Insurance Coverage in the United States” fits the latter category—but the

numbers still pack a punch.

More than 43 million Americans and 156,000 Hawaii residents fell below the federal poverty line in 2009, according to the report. More strikingly, 19 percent of Hawaii’s children lived in poverty compared to 12.5 percent of the general population.

Those hoping for better news on the horizon may be disappointed. “Poverty will likely remain very high in 2010 and climb even higher in 2011,” said Robert Greenstein, executive director of the non-partisan Center on Budget Policy and Priorities, in a statement responding to the Census figures. Most experts expect national unemployment to remain around 9 percent, Greenstein said, “and in each of the past three recessions, poverty did not begin to fall until a year after the unemployment rate began to fall.”

Cleaning Up Lahaina Town

J

“

oin the more than 1,000 Maui Nui residents who come together annually to take back our beaches,” reads the poster for the Lahaina Town Cleanup. On Saturday, for the sixth year in a row, people will converge on the West side to rid the coastline and surrounding area of a disturbing amount of garbage.

Spearheaded by organizer Matt Lane, the event is part of the Ocean Conservancy’s International Coastal Cleanup, a coalition of grassroots efforts spanning more than 100 countries. “The cleanup took on a life,” Lane told us last year, adding that there are kids who started participating as high school freshmen and are now off to college.

Volunteers are asked to bring buckets, reusable bags, water bottles and gloves; food, water and other supplies will be provided. For more information, call 877-2524. ■

“So, why didn’t we win? Most would say that it was ‘all about the money.’

The winner Brian Schatz raised and spent nearly twice the amount we did. The other two major contenders likewise raised and spent significantly more than we were able to. Our fundraising, while theoretically sufficient to be competitive, was too little and too late.

This is not to denigrate or take away from the successful campaign of Brian Schatz. After all, his ability to raise and manage the funds needed is itself a reflection of his talents and competence.”

RUFF LIFE “Tom Tom,” a 2-year-old Yorkshire terrier, was laid to rest at the Oakland Cemetery in Monticello, Arkansas, in March, even though he was in good health. His owner, Donald Ellis, had just passed away but had left explicit instructions that he wanted Tom Tom buried along with him, and not later on, because he felt that no one could love Tom Tom as much as he did. Ellis’s reluctant family finally took Tom Tom to a veterinarian, who tried to change their minds but ultimately acquiesced and euthanized the dog out of fear that they would put him down anyway, less humanely.

CONDOM NATION (1) The Swiss government announced in March that it would help bring to market extra-small condoms for boys as young as 12. (The decrease in circumference from a standard condom would be about 5/16th of an inch.) (2) The Washington Post reported in May that high school and college-age adults had complained that condoms given away by the District of Columbia’s HIV-prevention program were of too-low quality and that the city should spring for deluxe Trojan Magnums (in gold-colored packaging, giving them, said a city official, “a little bit of the bling quality”).

THE END IS BEER In July, the prominent BrewDog brewery in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, began producing the world’s strongest (and most expensive) beer, called The End of History, which is 55 percent alcohol and sells for 500 pounds ($780) a bottle. As if to enrage both anti-alcohol and animal-welfare activists, BrewDog released the first 12 bottles taxidermally inserted inside the carcasses of roadkill (seven ermines, four squirrels and a rabbit). Said company founder James Watt, BrewDog aims to “elevate the status of beer in our culture.”

UNHEALTHY CARE At least two employees at the Olive ViewUCLA Medical Center in Sylmar, California, were accused in May of carrying on a makeshift “beauty salon” inside the facility’s Neonatal Intensive Care unit. Allegedly, eyebrow waxes and manicures were given near sensitive equipment used to combat infant infections and respiratory disorders.

An investigation is continuing, but a hospital official said the notion of a “salon” was overblown and that perhaps a few nail

treatments were involved.

(Simultaneously, the facility is being investigated for taking kickbacks from nursing homes for placing discharged Medicare or Medicaid patients into those homes.)

LADIES? On an August ABC-TV Nightline, professor Matt Frerking of Oregon Health and Science University allowed cameras to record his narcolepsy-like “cataplexy,” which causes temporary muscle paralysis each time he contemplates romantic love (hugging or holding hands, viewing wedding pictures, witnessing affectionate couples). He noted that he can often fend off an impending attack by concentrating on his lab work.

HOT COMMODE-ITIES To most, the toilet is a functional appliance, but to thoughtful people, it can be an instrument upon which creativity blossoms. Thus, the price tags were high this summer when commodes belonging to two literary giants of the 20th century went on sale. In August, a gaudily designed toilet from John Lennon’s 1969-’71 residence in Berkshire, England, fetched 9,500 pounds (about $14,740) at a Liverpool auction, and a North Carolina collectibles dealer opened bids on the toilet that long served reclusive author J.D. Salinger at his home in Cornish, New Hampshire. The dealer’s initial price was $1 million because, “Who knows how many of Salinger’s stories were thought up and written while [he] sat on this throne!”

I SEE AN AUDIT IN YOUR FUTURE...

In September, the Romanian Senate rejected a proposal by two legislators to regulate and tax fortune-tellers and “witches,” even though the government is desperately seeking new sources of revenue.

A prominent witch had complained about potential record-keeping burdens on the “profession,” but one of the bill’s sponsors told the Associated Press he thinks opposition came from lawmakers who were frightened of having spells and curses placed on them. ■

TURNOUT DOWN, BLANK VOTES UP

O

f Maui’s 84,386 registered voters, 28,839 cast ballots.

That’s a measly 34.2 percent, which is slightly higher than the 2008 primary but lower than the more-comparable mid-term primaries of 2006 and 2002, which also featured Mayoral races. And it’s the lowest turnout of Hawaii’s four counties.

Additionally, this election saw a

rise in the number of blank votes in County Council races. In the 2008 primary, three Council races combined for about 8,000 blank votes. This year, in the same number of races, more than 12,000 votes were left blank.

The low turnout is easy to explain.

Setting aside isolated cases of voter confusion and polling-place snafus, the obvious culprit is apathy. For whatever reason, a majority of people simply don’t care. The blank

votes, on the other hand, may be a bit more complicated. During the recent, unsuccessful push to change the way the Council is elected— moving from countywide to district voting—some suggested voters should select only candidates within their residency areas as a form of protest. It’s impossible to say how many boxes were left unfilled for this reason—as opposed to indifference or unfamiliarity—but it’s doubtful the increase was a total coincidence.

ike most elections, last Saturday’s primary was a mixed bag. There were a few surprises, a few foregone conclusions and, unfortunately, a lot of voters who chose to stay home. Now, with a scant six weeks until the general election, the surviving candidates will kick their campaigns into high gear; expect lofty promises, low blows and, of course, choke sign-waving.

Before all that, let’s take a closer look at the primary results—and what they mean. »

10 September 23, 2010

aturday’s results give us two expected but still-intriguing rematches. In South Maui, Don Couch finished ahead of incumbent Wayne Nishiki by almost 1,000 votes. The two squared off in a hotly contested 2008 general election race, which Nishiki won. That year, however, Nishiki trounced Couch in the primary among a larger field of candidates. Nishiki’s a political veteran who’s proven he can win in the face of adversity, but losing the primary, even narrowly, doesn’t bode well for him.

The Mayoral race will also provide a bit of electoral deja vu, as incumbent Charmaine Tavares faces former Mayor Alan Arakawa. Tavares thwarted Arakawa’s bid for a second term in 2006; now Arakawa looks poised to return the favor.

Tavares did finish with the most votes amongst the 11 candidates, though she edged runner-up Arakawa by only 1 percent. Even more telling is the fact that almost 75 percent of voters chose a candidate other than Tavares. Whether that sentiment will carry over into the general—and whether Arakawa can successfully brand himself as a fresh choice—remains to be seen, but Tavares is clearly vulnerable.

Cochran and White appear to have the edge, but in each race a significant number of votes went to candidates other than the top two—9,711 in West Maui and 8,367 Upcountry. In both cases, that could be more than enough to tip the scales.

asily the most contentious showdown at the state or county level was between gubernatorial hopefuls Neil Abercrombie and Mufi Hannemann; the old rivals traded frequent barbs, and at times things got downright nasty. Initially it looked like a toss-up, but as the election drew closer several polls showed Abercrombie with a healthy lead. The polls weren’t wrong:

eing an incumbent is a big advantage in Hawaii, especially in the state legislature, yet Representatives Joe Souki and Joe Bertram appeared vulnerable. In the end, though, both survived— and neither really had to sweat it.

For a second straight election, Souki held off Tasha Kama. In 2008, Kama garnered 40 percent of the vote; this time, with two other candidates in the race, she got just 26 percent. Bertram, on the other hand, coasted in the 2008 primary and got a stiffer challenge this time.

Bertram won by a decent margin, but his two challengers—Netra Halperin and Johnna Amorin—combined for 46 percent of the vote. Souki and Bertram will face Republican opponents in the general, but making it out of the primary was probably their biggest hurdle.

Local Motion New South Maui farmers market joins the growing locavore trend

E

veryone in the restaurant industry is talking about locavore dining, but how can we move this initiative into our own kitchens?

Finding fresh Maui-grown fruits and vegetables can be tricky, since not all stores label their products’ origins.

Enter Lipoa Street Farmers Market (LSFM), a new venture launched in July that sells only Maui-grown and Maui-made

always ask. Another way to tell if you’re really buying local is the nature of the food that’s for sale; you won’t find out-of-season produce at a true farmers market.

Under the warm Saturday sun in South Maui, I met a vivacious and enthusiastic entrepreneur from Hana, Joei Tyre, and her husband Nick. They’ve formed a niche business within the LSFM called Hana Express (248-8469). On Fridays they run all around the Hana area picking up fresh fruits and vegetables from various producers, then display and sell the goods at the market. Joie and Nick have also formed the Maka’i Ola Bakery, which makes gluten-free, wheat-free and egg-free products, also for sale at LSFM.

Finding fresh Maui-grown fruits and vegetables can be tricky, since not all stores label their products’ origins. goods. Every Saturday morning from 8am to noon, LSFM offers fruits and veggies from our fertile island gardens, and each farmer or vendor has them clearly marked.

I had to learn the hard way that not all farmers markets are created equal. Just because they have the word “farmers” in the title doesn’t mean the farms in question are on-island or even in the state. If you’re not sure, and it’s it s not labeled, you can

The Saturday I was there they had brownies, foccacia and cobblers, but the selection changes every week.

LSFM also has a drop-stand program, which allows those with extra produce and flowers from backyard and small gardens to drop off their pre-priced items for sale to the public. Fresh greens, bananas, pineapple, tomato, Maui onion and asparagus were all availabl available the morning I droppe dropped by.

Stev Steve, who sells the go goods for Ken Okamu Okamura’s Okamura Farms Farms, explained the wo work that goes into kkeeping the produ produce bug-free.

“I wo would rather sit all da day picking the bugs off than spray chem chemicals,” he said. h “It’s hard work, but cre it creates a better prod at the end product th day.” of the Th Coca Farms The table was also imp impressive, featuring herb greens, beets, herbs, corn eggplant, fresh corn, rms fa a aspa asparagus and more. ur am ok om fr e fresh produc Farm Joel Gil and Farmer

“Everything grows on Maui,” he said, “it’s [figuring out] what grows on Maui with no bugs that’s the key.”

ecently, I posed a boozerelated question on Twitter and Facebook and—surprise, surprise—readers and friends of the paper weighed in.

Here’s a look at their answers, and a favorite recipe below...

Jen Russo @jenrusso What is your favorite rum cocktail?

Marissa Meyer Jen, how about a Hurricane with Lilikoi juice? @daffodilblog I’ve been making Cherry Cokes with the Bacardi Torched Cherry Rum @ Moana, and they are so yum...

Caren Iacovelli Teves macandcheesereview.blogspot. com/2006/03/passion- fruit-mojito.html Ynez Tongson @angryshortgirl I just love rum, period. Rum makes everything taste better.

Anu Yagi @anuheayagi Martha

Washington’s Rum Punch: cocktailtimes. com/original/martha_washington.shtml Leslie Gibson-Seno Mojito! :) Scott Johnson Rum, coconut water (from real coconut) squeeze of lime. Can’t go wrong with this; hydrate while you dehydrate.

Ron Wall Hmmm... since you ask: a tossup between Meyers/OJ & MtGay/Tonic.

Karen Christenson An Island Girl @ Mama’s served martini style; it’s a few different rums muddled with fresh citrus fruits.

Jason Michael Castle I agree on the Mojito calls...but use champagne instead of club soda. A ‘Royal Mojito’ is sex in a hurricane glass. Fresh mint of course.

Jennifer Che A good VERY good mai tai— and a nice sunset on Maui. @Lunas1831 Rum & Coke, natch.

Erin Horowitz Feldman Navy Grog... that’s rum, right?

Lisa Happe Rum mixed with POG juice! @MsMariasan The Hemingway.

LILIKOI HURRICANE: Here’s my own recipe for the first suggestion, the Hurricane with Lilikoi. My tasters voted and it was a hit: INGREDIENTS: 1/2 cup ice 2 fluid ounces light rum Meat of two Lililoi 1 ounce brown sugar syrup

1 cup lemon-lime flavored carbonated beverage (I used Jarritos) 1 ounce lime juice 1 fluid ounce 151 proof rum

DIRECTIONS: 1. In a shaker, combine ice, light rum, lilikoi and lime juice and brown sugar syrup. Shake vigorously.

2. Add lemon-lime flavored carbonated beverage and roll.

3. Shake well and pour mixture into a Hurricane or other large specialty glass. (I used a Pilsner and it worked fine.)

4. Float the 151 proof rum on top of the drink. Sink in a straw and enjoy!

Brown Sugar Syrup Combine 2/3 cup water and 1 cup light brown sugar and bring to a boil. Simmer over medium heat, about 3 min, till sugar dissolves. Cool, pour into a jar and refrigerate for up to one month. ■

PHOTOS BY JOSEPH GRABIEC

rowing up country, pilgrimages to the West side were but a once-persummer affair.

The winding haul across the Pali seemed endless to me as a tot, but holding your breath and making a wish through the tunnel while Dad laid heavy on the horn was worth it. Rocking my DayGlo coiled shoelaces sprung from magenta canvas High Tops, I was enraptured strolling down Front Street, which buzzed with the din of a dozen tongues and squawking parrots, steeping in the smells of restaurant grills, foreign sweat and a Banana Boat buffet. Macy’s was Liberty House and Planet Hollywood was yet in our solar system, but the Hard Rock Cafe had taken center stage.

In the summer of 1990 especially, when the Hard Rock opened its Maui doors (and well, windows; as the joint’s walls—despite being heavy with memorabilia—are mostly great big whitewashed panes propped open to let the ocean air in), the lines were long.

But like the drive to get there, it was worth it, and in the 20 years since its arrival the place has become a Maui mainstay. The Hard Rock brand is rooted deep in the Western (and beyond) psyche—it’s the goto omiyage when traveling anywhere from Boston to Beirut—so it appeals both to the name-hungry (or just hungry) tourist that can count on the corporate consistency with rock ‘n roll flair and locals who have come to know it as a venue for historic shows and wild nights out.

Since the company’s 1971 start-up in London, and over the course of multiple buyouts and expansions, Hard Rock is

more than a Cafe and T-shirts stamped with a city’s name—it’s casinos and hotels and even a short-lived theme park. Ultimately though, it’s all about the memorabilia, and their 166 venues in 52 countries house over 70,000 pieces of music history. That in itself may be the Hard Rock’s greatest contribution, though their philanthropic efforts are more than noteworthy.

So when the Hard Rock hosts a concert— as they are this weekend to celebrate their two decades on the Valley Isle—they meld into it every aspect that’s made them a success.

From their classic Hard Rock concert vibe to food and drink via excellent wait staff to the headlining band The Ataris (rumored to be dedicating a new piece of memorabilia for the walls) to a portion of the door to benefit the Sustainable

Biodiesel Alliance (also, their Pinktober fundraising is just around the corner), the event is sure to be a distilled shot of Hard Rock dogma.

“We’d thought about making the anniversary show just for past employees,” says Jill Holley, sales and marketing director for the restaurant, “but I don’t know if they’d all fit,” she adds with a laugh.

Perhaps then it’s appropriate that their anniversary concert headlines with The Ataris, a foursome from Anderson, Indiana, that can list 15 ex-members since its first formation in 1995. Frontman Kris Roe is the founder and only original member of the band.

“It’s scary,” said guitarist Chris Swinney (the most recent casualty, replaced by Aaron Glass), in a South African interview for Live Live Magazine, of joining a band with a track record like a soap opera character.

“But it’s been super cool because the fans have been great... I don’t care about being famous, but it’s cool to join a band like The Ataris with a built-in fan base.”

That fan base—and everything else about The Ataris, from sound to style—is the result of Roe, who began writing and recording from his bedroom back in the

ol’ Hoosier State, and is credited with composing nearly all of the group’s songs on their six records to date. However, their most successful single so far is a cover. “Boys of Summer” (originally

by Don Henley of The Beach Boys and Mike Campbell of Tom Petty and the Hearthbreakers), off their fourth album So Long, Astoria—which marked their break from the indie punk label Kung Fu Records to Columbia Records—hit #2 on Billboard’s Hot Modern Rock chart.

Welcome the Night, their 2007 followup to Astoria, is decidedly darker and the title alone for their forthcoming endeavor, The Graveyard of the Atlantic, bodes well for a band maturing into his sound.

Lord knows if I was held to my High Tops and DayGlo of yesteryear—when I got my first taste of the Hard Rock all those 20 years ago—I might not have survived the mean streets of Kula to be writing this today (right, eh, Kula Crips?). Thankfully the Hard Rock has survived—and thrived. For those who continue to rock, we salute you. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1414m

Film Critique

by Barry Wurst II barry@mauitime.com

Taking Stock Oliver Stone’s belated sequel proves times may change, but greed is forever Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps

★★★★★

Rated R/127 min.

G

reed is still good in this belated, wickedly entertaining sequel to Oliver Stone’s influential stockbroker morality drama. Gordon Gekko (played again by Michael Douglas, who won a Best Actor Oscar the first time around) returns to New York after years in prison and goes on a comeback/revenge mission with the help of a money-hungry young broker named Jake Moore (Shia Labeouf). Gekko also longs for redemption, and seeks forgiveness from his daughter Winnie (Carey Mulligan), who is also Moore’s fiancée.

After the underrated World Trade Center and the mixed-bag, work-in-progress that

was W., Stone comes roaring back with the cinematic equivalent of a page turner. The first film, released in 1987, was ahead of its time; it opened mere months before the stock market went south and provided searing commentary on the then-little known world of highpressure money dealing and insider trading.

This time, for obvious reasons, Stone sets the film in 2008, during the early days of the Great Recession and ensuing bailouts. Some may complain that Stone is on his soapbox again (does he ever get off?), but it’s hard to argue with the appropriateness of his setting.

After a series of over-caffeinated turns in bad movies, LaBeouf dials it down, doesn’t try so hard and aces his first solid leading man performance. Frank Langella is wonderful as Moore’s dearest friend and the film’s moral center, 94-year old veteran actor Eli Wallach steals all of his scenes as a Wall Street staple, Mulligan is outstanding and Josh Brolin embodies suave villainy. But

Get a room.

this is Douglas’s show: he’s sly, witty and razor-sharp and appears to genuinely enjoy revisiting his most iconic role.

Filmgoers who take a refresher course and watch the 1987 film first will note the similarities, including the heartfelt father/ son dynamic between LeBeouf and Mulligan, which mirrors the relationship between Charlie and Martin Sheen from the original.

Yet audiences who haven’t seen “Wall Street” and don’t know stocks and bonds from Barry Bonds will still be entertained. Brian Eno and David Byrne’s songs add snap to many scenes and “This Must Be the Place” by the Talking Heads, a pivotal track from the first film, returns. (Also back is Charlie Sheen, in a jewel of a cameo.)

The original had a more focused

screenplay, and a two-man Faust-like bargain to drive the story. This one is more complex and ambitious but Stone doesn’t know how to close the curtain. Where Wall Street had a tough, abrupt conclusion, Money Never Sleeps tries out several endings, finally settling on a very Hollywood finish that is satisfying but not really believable.

The appeal of both films is that, whether you work in New York or Lahaina, everyone can relate to the clash between ambition and ethics, and the way the promise of success can tweak even the strongest moral compass. Do you allow money to change you? It’s a difficult, universal question. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1414f

This Week's Picks Rumble in the Steeple

R

ing announcer: Out of the Upcountry corner, this church is a 28-time festival holder. Standing since 1907, built out of materials that arrived at Makena Landing and were transported up Haleakala by horse-drawn carriage. Fighting for your salvation out of Keokea, it’s ST. JOHN’S EPISCOPAL CHURCH! (Crowd cheers.) And out of the Wailuku corner (a hush), this church is named for a Hana-born Hawaii queen and the favorite wife of Kamehameha the Great. Established in 1832, it’s the oldest congregational church on the island. Fighting from just across the street to the county seat, it’s KA’AHUMANU HAWAIIAN CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH! (Crowd cheers.) Both churches will host free community fairs on Saturday (September 25), with St. John’s Kula Festival running from 9am-3pm and Ka‘ahumanu’s “Restoring Our History” Extravaganza from 10am-4pm. Referee: Churches, please open your hymnals to “The Summons,” and have a clean festival. (DING!) Ring announcer: And the churches come out swinging! St. John’s promised to be “bigger and better than ever” this year, as the congregation honors the retirement of Rev. Heather Mueller, after her 29 years of service. As is tradition, they will share proceeds with local non-profits, this year being the Upcountry Boys & Girls Club and the Hui No Ke Ola Pono Native Hawaiian health care system. Meanwhile, Ka‘ahumanu—which, a recent inspection revealed, needs restoration work done posthaste—looks to announce their plans and raise funds. Both events feature live entertainment—St. John’s boasting George Kahumoku, Jr. (2pm)—food, arts and crafts, produce and more. Ooh! St. John’s throws in a silent auction and food, like their famous Portuguese bean-soup plus produce including fresh Kula strawberries for sale. But wait, Ka‘ahumanu still seeks artisans and crafters, and will pick up rummage sale donations. Looks like this one’s a tie, folks! Thanks for tuning in and be sure to return for more Holy Trinity TKOs. St. John’s: 878-1485; stjohnsmaui.org / Ka‘ahumanu: 874-1815

very payday we went to Walgreens. At the end of our shift Edward would say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, Anuhea, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s go for a drive, shall we?â&#x20AC;? We could have gone anywhereâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the sprawl is most complete when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in the bullâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eye of the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d invariably only go from Kansas Cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Seville-esque Plaza to the outskirts of the gingerbread brick town of Brookside, which was a ten minute walk at best. In fact, you could see the Walgreens from the parking lot rooftop of our Tommy Bahama shopâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; which always made me feel a bit silly about our jaunts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, Anuhea. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too cold/hot/ugly/ beautiful out today to walk,â&#x20AC;? Edward would say, if ever I suggested it. So into my hot pink Ford â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sexcortâ&#x20AC;? weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d hop and off weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d buzz to, well, Walgreens. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think we need some vodka,â&#x20AC;? Edward would say. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yes. A big bottle of vodka.

What do you think, Anuhea?â&#x20AC;?

Edward always asked for my opinion, though he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need itâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;he was a man of impeccable taste, only compromised when he was broke, which was always (we had that in common). If he bought Smirnoff instead of Skyy, did he look cheap? Well (whatever my answer) it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d conclude, because â&#x20AC;&#x153;screw the cashier if they want to judge.â&#x20AC;?

But would his date think he was cheap? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Well screw him too.â&#x20AC;? (And then heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d giggle and give me a sinister wink.) Did I think X bottle of wine was better than Y bottle of wine? Should he wait until his next paycheck to buy those expensive Gillette razor blade reďŹ lls? Is that guy at the end of the aisle checking him out, or me? (Of course you, Edward. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a Portuguese Ralph Fiennes.) Original or Wavy potato chips? Potato chips at all? Is this cute? Is this ridiculous?

Would Tony (my then-boyfriend) like this? Would Kevin/Robert/Michael/John (whomever heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d met online) like that?

Up and down every aisle weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d go, picking up things, putting back things, hashing out the gripes of the day, our hopes for tomorrow, our dreams of going home. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kansas City is ďŹ ne,â&#x20AC;? heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d say on good days, great quivering wells brimming at his ducts, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no place like home.â&#x20AC;? P Town, that is. The furthest little curly cue at the end of Cape Cod. A fairytale land of moonlit sand dunes, nightly drag queen shows and fabulous parties. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, Anuhea. You, too. You must miss Maui soso much.â&#x20AC;? And the more he said it, the more I did (if such a thing were possible). So Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d tell him of my country shangrila; of spending whole days on the

reefs of Makena, or knowing Poli Poli trails by heart. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d both be crying by the time we hit the seasonal aisle, the heady smell of mass-produced snow globes telling us it was time to go.

He always left with liquor. Me too, usually. And razor blades, on non-rent checks. Potato chips when weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d worked through lunch in the summertime.

Maybe People magazines.

But we no matter what, we always left with candy orange slices. It was the one thing that was outside of opinions, exempt from discussion. When they went on sale, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d clean them out, no questions asked. When it was slow at the store heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d open a bag, walk up to me with his decidedly heel-toe step and say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, Anuhea. You know you want an ahrange. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re fabulous.â&#x20AC;?

A

s was the plan, two years after moving to Kansas City, I came home to Maui. It was Edwardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan to move home to P Town, but the last time I spoke with him, he just sighed dramatically and said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, Anuhea. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know when Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll ever get home.â&#x20AC;? He was broke, of course. (We still had that in common.)

Last week, I went to a dinner party at my friend Jenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house. Jen could win one of those Food Network shows with her eyes closed, so bringing a dish is a waste of resources. I brought vodka. And candy orange slices.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d bought the candy because Edward had been on my mind, though itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d been months since weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d talked. Jen had the genius idea to stick a slice on the rim of our glasses like a garnish, and I thought, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, Edward would love thatâ&#x20AC;? and made a mental note to give him an overdue call.

But I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. And Edward died that night.

Maybe. Maybe the night before, maybe the night after. Nobody knows. He was alone in his apartment, hopefully with a bottle of vodka, a good shave, People magazine and an empty bag of candy ahranges. â&#x2013;

sign.language.astrology@gmail.com LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) We’re taught the old cliché, “if at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.”

It’s actually not a bad philosophy, most of the time; few truly valuable goals can be achieved without persistence and determination. However, sometimes it’s preferable to realize that you won’t be able to accomplish something and just give up so you can apply your time and energy to more useful and productive pursuits. This is a tough judgment call; there’s very little that’s truly impossible. However, being realistic about just how much effort something will take to succeed, and how much you‘re willing and able to give it will keep you from, quite simply, wasting your time.

Try not to obsess about the negative aspects of your pretty good situation, even though they’re likely to be especially obvious and annoying this week. Although they’re making themselves bigger and more obtrusive than usual, you should concentrate on looking past them and focus on all the stuff that’s great, and how best to bring the good things back to the forefront. That won’t be easy right now, but next week you should have some good opportunities to make things golden again—provided you’re not too hung up and bitter about the shit that went down this week.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC.21) While you could construct an exciting, unique, and quirkily fashionable wardrobe out of your deconstructed home furnishings, you don’t really need to. There’s a part of me that mourns the wonders you’d create from your lampshades, curtains, and couch upholstery, but I’d rather you focus on the important work you’ve already begun, rather than getting sidetracked with a fun but mostly frivolous project, such as is likely to present itself this week. Don’t be tempted by it. That doesn’t mean you need to never do it—just that this is probably not the right time.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) A tree hoping to weather a storm has two possible paths of survival: either be flexible enough to bend when buffeted by harsh weather, instead of breaking, or being so massive and deep-rooted that even the highest winds and heaviest rains couldn’t topple it. You’re faced with similar options. Unlike a tree, which can’t choose which shape it takes, you can pursue either route—the important thing is to commit completely to whichever you select. Down the middle road lies only ruin since you couldn’t bend with the weather, nor stand firm against it—you’d just break.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) Aquarians don’t have the same reputation for being addicted to their routines as Taureans or Leos, but you’re just as likely to get tripped up by changes to things you’re accustomed to. An annoying new distraction could severely disrupt your concentration, so much so that all you can think about is getting away from or rid of it. Unfortunately, that’s not likely to happen any time soon; for now this is something you’re going to have to put up with—and that means getting used to it so you can still be productive in spite of it. Sorry, but that’s just how it is. Better get started.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) While it would be great if you could simply tell yourself to be motivated to do the things you know you ought to, it’s not usually quite so easy. In fact, cracking the whip and getting those tasks done is one of the hardest challenges for you Pisces. Sometimes, the only thing that works is telling yourself that if you don’t do it, you’ll have to do something you dread even more; then hold yourself to it. Usually, you’ll find your innate resistance evaporates when caving to it would result in you having to do something you despise instead.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) When you’re crushed by disappointment, concentrate on springing back. One of your finest qualities is your hopefulness and how excited you get about things you’re looking forward to. Naturally, sometimes you’ll be let down, but you need to resist becoming bitter or jaded. Remember that most of the time, things actually work out pretty well. Of course, if you’re determined to see a gloomy black cloud of bad luck hanging over your head, you can certainly make one appear. But the reality is, most of the stuff you hope for actually happens. When the occasional setback occurs, get up, dust yourself off, and cheerfully keep that in mind.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) There may be a million excellent reasons for someone to like you, but just one or two compelling grounds for dislike can negate all of those. Obviously, you can’t please everyone, and there’ll always be some people who just don’t like you, and there’s nothing you can do about it. However, in this case, some of the tiny negatives are unduly eclipsing the overwhelming positives, just because of someone’s limited perspective. This week, do what you must to help them see the big picture. Sure, it’s selfserving, but since once they do they’ll want you around, it’s ultimately a win-win.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) Some people get cosmetic surgery that’s so over the top, it’s almost like getting their faces tattooed with permanent clown makeup. Of course, you and I will never really be able to understand people whose motivations have diverged so wildly from our own. Nevertheless, we should still try to make an effort to interact with them—first of all, simply because they’re fascinating. Secondly, because it’s required by the choices you’ve made about the kind of person you want to be. Don’t laugh at the clown faces and their ilk—instead, try your best to see things through their eyes, and thank goodness you live in a world that’s full of so much mind-blowing weirdness.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) Most people are skimmers. You can take pains to give someone detailed written instructions and the average person will miss half of the important information you’ve included. Unfortunately, you have to account for this laziness or obtuseness when dealing with people you don’t know. They’re used to the vital information being pounded at them, repeatedly, from multiple sources, and it’s made them thick, sluggish and immune to subtlety and nuance. It’s not in your nature, but you need to be obnoxiously persistent, borderline insultingly repetitive, and completely obvious this week if you want to be properly heard and heeded.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) While you may fancy yourself a maestro of a magnificent orchestra, you may occasionally find yourself conducting a quartet, or even performing a solo; in such a milieu, the grandiosity that might be acceptable in front of the Philharmonic would be embarrassingly inappropriate. While one of your strengths is to be so big and bold, it can occasionally be a weakness, as you know. You need to be aware of the contexts in which you find yourself this week and occasionally tone down the aspects of your personality which can sometimes skew larger-than-life. This won’t be as easy or obvious as it sounds, so when in doubt, aim for keywords like “modest” and “subtle.”

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) You can get a cat to play in the middle of the day, but you’re much more likely to see a livelier, more spirited cat in the evening, when your nocturnally-oriented kitty would more naturally be alert and awake. This week, try to pay attention to the natural rhythms and tendencies of those around you, and work with those whenever possible, rather than trying to impose your own arbitrary timetables. This may seem like quite a bit of effort, but really the hardest part is just paying attention. Once you do, you’ll find that not only does everything become a bit easier, everyone becomes a bit happier, too.
