Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll still offer paper bags, but the best thing to doâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;if you want this law to work, and you shouldâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;is to get yourself a few nice, sturdy reusable bags (and, this is key, actually bring them with you when you go shopping).

But hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the real question: what are stores supposed to do with all the nowillegal plastic bags they have laying around?

The answer isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t to throw them away; that defeats the purpose and empty plastic bags are far more likely to blow out of the landfillâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;which, contrary to what that creepy kid from American Beauty would have you believe, is not beautiful.

Instead, stores can give their leftover petroleum-based satchels to the Community Work Day Program (cwdhawaii.org), which will offer them to any resident who owns at least three reusable bags. The idea is that people will then keep the plastic bags as reminders of a bygone eraâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;or more likely stuff them with trash, so that when they do reach the landfill theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll at least be weighed down.

EH BRAH!

NEWS OF THE WEIRD SCUM ALL YE FAITHFUL A now-10-year-old church in Denver ministers to (as contemplated by 1 Corinthians 4:11-13) the homeless, the reviled and the persecuted, and formally named itself after the actual words in verse 13: the “Scum of the Earth” Church.

The congregation touts nonjudgmental Christianity, owns an elegant, aging building (but holds services elsewhere because of fire code violations) and is a rough mix of anarchists, punk rockers, environmentalists and disaffected teens perhaps mainly keen on angering their parents. “Scum” (as church members matter-of-factly call themselves) tilt mildly philosophically conservative (though not nearly evangelical), connected only by the common belief that “God is love,” according to a December report in Denver’s Westword.

ARTLESS Among the recent works funded by Arts Council England was a “painting” consisting of a blank canvas, for which artist Agnieszka Kurant was paid the equivalent of about $2,300 and on which she intends to paint something in the future.

really present and a “movie” that had been shot with no film in the camera.

OUT OF HIS ORB Robert Hurst, 47, was charged after an incident at the cemetery in Picayune, Mississippi, pursuing his hobby of “orb photography”—capturing the images of circles of light at night, especially the ones that appear to him as faces. Hurst was spotted one night in December, naked, setting up his camera, thus giving rise to a charge of indecent exposure. He explained that he thought bare skin would be the “best canvas” for orb photography.

Who matters on Maui?

And, more essentially, who matters to Maui? As we enter a new year—full of hope and uncertainty—we thought it was a good time to ask the question.

Our answer is in the following pages: twenty movers and shakers in art, food and politics who are shaping our island’s future. Some of the names will be familiar to you; others may not. But they all share one thing: the drive, skill and passion to be leaders not merely in their chosen fields, but the community at large.

They matter to us, they matter to you—and they most decidedly matter to Maui.

The Public Servant

T

wenty-ten was a big year for Jo Anne Johnson: she lost her husband of 30 years to complications from Parkinson’s disease, finished her fifth and final term on the County Council, was tapped by incoming Mayor Alan Arakawa to head up the County Department of Transportation—and got remarried. “I didn’t expect it,” says Johnson of the nuptials, “but it’s proof that some things really are meant to be.” Her new husband is a rabbi and an old friend who she re-connected with via the Internet. “He cooks and cleans,” Johnson says with a smile.

“Sometimes I can’t believe how lucky I am.”

But her personal life isn’t the only area where changes are afoot. After ten years representing the people of West Maui, Johnson is now tasked with overseeing the County bus system—among other things— and finding ways to maintain and improve service in the face of budget constraints and bureaucratic red tape. The challenges may be new, but Johnson says her approach will be the same. “Transportation touches everyone,” she says, “the elderly and disabled, students and young people, visitors. I see it as a

8

chance to have a broad impact.”

Though she still has a passion for public service, Johnson has ruled out seeking further elected office. “I think that should be left to younger people,” she says, referencing her successor on the Council, Elle Cochran. “That doesn’t mean I’m not motivated,” she’s quick to add. “I love Maui and I always will. But now, I think, I can be active in other ways.” - JS

The Sound Shaman When Kanoa Kukaua lets his voice loose, it’s a galvanized tempest. Both a multiinstrumentalist and effervescent frontman, Kanoa is the conductor of a calescent current of well-honed talent. “If I’m not feeling [music], or hearing it, or seeing it, I’m thinking about it,” he says. “It consumes me badly. I’m a fiend.”

The way Kanoa expresses himself— both onstage and off—effuses a judicious candidness that is, in a word, likable. And while we can’t help but wax poetic about Kanoa, part of what makes him so great is his own inexorable humility.

“Like any local boy,” he began playing uke at the tender age of seven, taught by his Pukalanian grandmother whom he credits as a major inciter of his passion for sound.

She was also, he says, “a Hawaiian healer,” which influenced him in another way: he’s a certified nursing assistant and worked for nine years at the Kula Hospital. Working with senior citizens helped cultivate his love of live performance, “learning about crowds and how to take the reins of a room.”

Whether playing for bunches or before a bed-bound audience of one, the experience made him “a true believer in healing through music.” He’s also shared his gifts with students, as a teacher of Polynesian music at King Kekaulike High School.

Since he began performing professionally at the age of 15, Kanoa has been part of at least 11 groups—all with solid name recognition. Right now, his bands include local greats like Gomega and Rampage, plus new-to-the-scene “conceptual rock” group Owaila. Kanoa says this constant transition is what forced him to develop his solo work in

2005, and was the reason he discovered his love of looping and beatboxing.

This past year, fans have had the pleasure of watching Kanoa blossom, as if the freshness

he hopes to “continue to evolve” in his music is now drenched over his countenance. But he’s aiming his sights even higher: “I want to be a voice for everybody.” - AY

his more boisterous and controversial colleagues grab headlines. Then again, it may be that very trait that earned Tsutsui the job; he doesn’t go out of his way to make enemies, even among the almost invisible Republican minority. In fact, Tsutsui told us, he appreciates that as Senate President—as opposed to Majority Leader—his job is to “listen to all 25 members and make sure every voice is heard.”

Quiet though it may be, Tsutsui’s voice isn’t going away any time soon. - JS

The Farmer-Chef

The Hawaii-Cuisine Pioneer Looking for female inspiration in the boys club that is the food and beverage industry?

Look no further than Chef Bev Gannon.

“I like to throw great parties,” Chef Gannon says. “And no matter what I do, I have to be the best I can be.” It’s those two philosophies that created her current love triangle of Maui restaurants: Hali‘imaile General Store, Joe’s and Gannon’s A Pacific View.

“As a female it took me longer to earn respect,” Gannon says of the early days.

“I’ve had to work harder.” That hard work has paid off, with a list of accolades that includes Small Business Person of the year for the state of Hawaii and a loyal celebrity following at all her restaurants.

Hali‘imaile General Store opened in 1988, just three years after Bev launched a catering company called Celebrations. More than 20 years later, Hali‘imaile remains her most renowned restaurant, appreciated internationally for its Asian-inspired Americana dishes.

In 1991, Gannon was one of the founding members of the Hawaii Regional Cuisine Movement, defining the enduring style along with fellow Maui chefs Mark Ellman and Peter Merriman and Oahu’s Alan Wong and Roy Yamaguchi.

In late 1995, Gannon opened Joe’s in Wailea and created her own brand of gourmet comfort food. Finally, Gannon’s A Pacific View opened in December 2009.

Its menu, like Bev, is still evolving. “Every time I open a restaurant I think it will be a breeze,” she says. “Now here I am, 22 years after opening Hali‘imaile General Store, and I felt like a novice again.”

Ultimately, Gannon says, the key is to

mix it up yet always satisfy. “We have to have a bit of a challenge and stir things up a bit. [But] I think we should give folks what they want.” - JR

Impressive, especially for someone who generally flies under the radar while

Chef James McDonald had a stellar year by any measure. He welcomed a new baby (number three), and won the Maui Onion Festival recipe contest with his Upcountry ravioli, a pasta tribute to Haleakala. His newest venture among five operations, Aina Gourmet Market, won awards for its design and celebrated its one-year anniversary. The list goes on, but it’s McDonald’s passion for food and using Maui-grown ingredients— and sharing that with the world—that earns him a spot on this list.

McDonald is executive chef and partner at several Maui venues: Pacific‘o Restaurant, I‘o Restaurant, Feast at Lele, O‘o Farms and the aforementioned Aina Gourmet. “In 2000, the land was purchased in Kula but we had no particular thought of what to do with it at that time,” he explains of O‘o Farms. “I grew my food as a kid, and the flavors are impeccable. I still hate having

The Ascendant Politician Every politician worth his wingtips can feign humility. But coming from Maui Sen. Shan Tsutsui, it actually seems genuine. Like when we asked him how it felt to be the youngest Senate President ever, and the first from the Valley Isle, and he replied, “I honestly didn’t know until someone pointed it out.”

A graduate of Maui High and UH Manoa, Tsutsui was first elected to the state Senate in 2002 at the tender age of 31. He moved from the Tourism Committee to vice-chairing the more powerful Ways and Means Committee and finally to the chamber’s top post after

a middleman on my food purchases.”

Now the farm not only grows food for all McDonald’s restaurants, but offers tours and gourmet on-site meals.

“Farming is tough,” McDonald acknowledges. “Seasons, pests, lack of water—and there are just some things you can’t grow. We had to figure it out.”

Fortnunately, figuring it out is one of McDonald’s skills. When he started I‘o, the idea of doing a competing restaurant next door to Pacific‘o was almost unheard of. But the super-creative menu quickly garnered a whole new set of fans. When he opened Feast at Lele—a gourmet, five-star luau experience—he broke the mold yet again.

What’s next for McDonald? More daring reinvention. “I’m in the process of revamping the Pacific‘o menu and we just launched I‘o’s new menu,” he says.

“My newer style focuses on the beauty of minimalism in food. Purity on the plate. I want my dishes simple and clean, [to] let the flavors shine through.” McDonald says that’s “one of the hardest things to master.”

But luckily, he adds, “My profession is my passion is my life.” - JR

The Restoration Revolutionary

The Curators Here’s a truism more and more people are waking up to: opening night at any of Paia Tattoo Parlor’s revolving art exhibitions will transport you. Surely, you think, you’re in the belly of a big city’s burgeoning art scene. Surely this can’t be Maui. But why not? Why can’t our art scene (bludgeoned by blase beachscapes though it may be) champion chic avant garde? In their inaugural year of business, the parlor has managed to create “a community-based art space” that by its moxie alone has generated an unequivocal buzz.

Helmed by husband and wife team Leah Honma and Justin Yates— excellent artists themselves who own the shop in partnership with Lasha and William Roy Crandal—the parlor has become mission control for a previously hidden sector of the art community. If that sounds socially nervewracking, have no fear. Throw any ideas of art gallery and/or tattoo shop snobbishness out the window; in keeping with the parlor’s pono mission, their vibe is infused with an openness that melds candor and cool.

Exhibitions run the gamut: woodcarving, printmakers, polymer clay sculptors, iPhone photographers, oil painters. The curated work clearly speaks to a certain aesthetic (the antithesis of just another palm tree in paradise), but the works appeal to anyone and everyone. - AY

On first impression, Dr. Art Medeiros— the visionary behind the popular “Auwahi” native habitat restoration project and technical advisor of the Leeward Haleakala Watershed Restoration Partnership—appears to be extremely shy, even hermit-like. He speaks softly, prefers alone-time in the forest (which he refers to as his “church”) and is a self-proclaimed “nerd.”

The fact that this is the same man who has led over 2,800 volunteers in carefully replanting more than 180 acres of native forest is enough to make you reconsider your first impression. He’s no shrinking violet. To the contrary, Medeiros is widely known as the fearless leader of a revolution in restoration. Mention his name and you’ll hear words like “inspiration” and “rare gem.”

As a young man on Oahu, Art cultivated a love of plants and animals. When he started to focus on Hawaii’s native species, his true mission began. “As I learned the Hawaiian plants, I quickly learned that all Hawaiian plants are in trouble,” he recalls. Eventually his botany research brought him to Maui’s leeward side, where only 10 percent of the native habitat remains intact after massive deforestation wiped out rare, endemic flora and the introduction of hoofed animals kept them from returning. He’s been working there ever since.

Inside what is known as Auwahi I, II, and III—sections of devastated land that are being rescued inside “exclosure” fences on Leeward Haleakala’s Ulupalakua Ranch— Art’s dream is slowly coming true. Over the past 10 years, Medeiros and his loyal crew have made 173 volunteer trips to Auwahi and have planted 82,323 native trees and plants. Amazingly, the fruits of their collective restoration work can be seen from outer space via Google Earth.

Even with such wild success, Medeiros remains humble, giving credit to his many kumu, staff and supporters.

“I once admitted to having some good ideas,” he says. “But good ideas don’t go anywhere without land owners like the Erdman Family [who own Ulupalakua Ranch], funders and all of our volunteers.” - ST

The Deep-Sea Vodka Maker Oceans Vodka is a family-owned Maui company, but their product isn’t distilled on the Valley Isle. This is no great secret; president Shay Smith will be the first to tell you. “Yeah we get criticized by the competition because we don’t distill the spirit here, but we are making it here,” he says. Smith says two factors influence the off-island distillation: a desire to keep the

vodka organic, and quality control.

The process by which Oceans Vodka gets to market is fascinating. It starts with organic sugar cane, grown free of pesticides and with no genetic modifications. The cane juice is then distilled by master Bill Scott on the Mainland. This product is combined with MaHalo Hawaii Deep Sea water from Kono‘a Koyo U.S.A.—pulled from 3,000 feet below sea level and desalinated—in a Maui warehouse, then bottled by Smith’s parents. The result is 80-proof, virtually flavor-free booze.

No other vodka is made this way.

“We set out six years ago to create a Hawaii product,” Smith explains. “Our goal was to be as popular as macadamia nuts, but we didn’t want to make a tourist product.

We wanted a local product to compete on the world market.”

It’s working—Oceans can be now found in at least 10 states, plus Canada

and Japan. “We are committed to making a difference to our planet through being an organic product,” says Smith. “And being a Maui company.” - JR

The Outside-the-Box Educator Hawaii’s public education system is broken.

Our schools are failing, our teachers are overburdened and our keiki are falling further and further behind. Just don’t tell Susana Browne.

“There are so many wonderful teachers and principals doing good work,” says Browne, director of the Maui Arts & Cultural Center’s Arts in Education program. “It’s frustrating to see mostly bad news reported.”

Browne acknowledges there are problems— many of them, she says, stemming from the crippling requirements of standardized testing—but she remains hopeful.

A big part of her optimism stems from the Arts in Education program itself, which teaches teachers how to be, well, better teachers. The idea is simple yet revolutionary: use art—both visual and performance—to teach every subject.

“When children are active and engaged,”

says Browne, “they’re much more likely to learn.” Since its inception 15 years ago, the program has trained about 800 teachers.

Browne says the “three Rs” should be supplemented by the “four Cs”: critical thinking, creativity, communication and collaboration. “If you’re engaged in the arts, those things are going to automatically happen,” she says. “And those are the big 21st century skills that the business community and universities are looking for.”

Browne points to Kahului’s Pomaikai‘i Elementary as an example of arts education in action. Founded in 2007, the school has managed to teach through the arts and meet the stringent requirements of No Child Left Behind. “It’s a steep learning curve,” Browne admits. “But when you visit the campus, you see something amazing: happy teachers—and happy kids.” - JS

The Dynamic Duo “Were MOTH to meet the devil and be challenged to a duel, they would not only keep their souls but snag Satan’s too,” we wrote in a June 2010 feature. Maybe we were on to something: how, other than a deal with the devil, could this musical duo outdo itself with every concert?

Taking their great metallic swoops of musical creation to ever-higher full-sensory heights, MOTH’s all-original sets are crafted especially for live performance. Case in point: their headlining of last week’s Wailuku First Friday, wherein they concocted a spectacle part P.T. Barnum, part prog-rock film festival.

The show was steeped in MOTH’s trademark transcendental mystique: two sultry dancers towered 12-feet-tall on stilt-ettos while Asian fans, silken wings and neon poi balls kissed the sky in synchronization to tunes like

JANUARY 13, 2011 11

“Scimitar” and “The Late, Great Billy Idol.”

Creating a deceptively choate sound, the men of MOTH—drummer James Bowersox and guitarist James “Cotton” Hartman—first burst onto the scene from a big black bus at last year’s Battle of the Bands at Mulligans on the Blue. Since then, it’s been all-senses-go.

With rock that renders moments of reckoning—reminding the listener of the elemental roils of our alien Earth—MOTH makes musical memories and engineers experiences not to be forgotten. If they didn’t conquer Hell to attain their six-string and stick skills, they are at the very least timewarp-trapped messengers from some intrepid future of sight and sound. - AY

from moment to moment,” Quinn explains.

“Different ways of cooking food affect your body. The idea is to balance yourself. We are breaking that down for you, and making it part of your experience.”

If all that sounds a little heavy, don’t worry—the idea is to make the menu approachable and to make health food accessible for everyone. “I’m not doing this for the money,” says Skandunas. “I’m sticking with my philosophy of food.” - JR

The Craft Brewers

The Health Nuts Not many restaurants have a nutritionist at the helm, and even fewer boast a staff with Ayurvedic and macrobiotic cooking skills. But Cafe Prana Nui in Haiku is all about being different. Chef Jason Skandunas and nutritionist Jessica Quinn operate out of a little reclaimed food bus, bringing a breath of fresh, healthy air to the local dining scene.

“We found the bus in Honokowai and three months later we were operating,” Skandunas says. “‘Prana’ means life force in Sanskrit, and ‘nui’ means abundant in Hawaiian. Those are the tenets of our cafe.

We designed our menu to harmonize with the other restaurants, bring something to the table that others aren’t doing. Lots of local farmers contribute, and we have an incredible amount of community support.”

One of the first thing you notice when ordering is the Dosha chart, posted above the menu. It’s a list of attributes that distinguishes your body as kapha, pitta or vata, key components to understanding Ayurvedic eating. “Your dosha can change

fictional film ever produced—by far.

Shot entirely on the Valley Isle over 21 days, the comedy features 175 local cast members—all delightfully recognizable as friends, family and famous Mauians. It isn’t the end-all be-all of local movie making— but it’s a wonderful beginning.

Get A Job screened to a standing-roomonly audience at the MACC’s Castle Theater in November (if you missed it, or want to see it again, never fear: tickets go on sale January 13 for a special four-day, 12-run screening at the Iao Theater), then boasted an after party that’s already the stuff of legend. Soon, the flick will make migration through the international film circuit.

The lead roles are filled by Willie “K” Kahaiali‘i and Eric Gilliom, whose prodigious musical talents have been moving and shaking Maui since their hanabata days. Their performances are impressive, but what’s really cool is that it’s all a part of Kohne’s master plan, which involves live performances, more movies and a spin-off TV show.

Ambitious? Sure. Improbable? Perhaps.

But it’s about time a Maui filmmaker reached for the stars. - AY

Maui Brewing Company’s Garret Marrero and Melanie Oxley were very busy last year, like Maui menehune of beer. Now, the Valley Isle can boast along with them that we have the the largest craft brewery in the state.

Their production facility expansions in 2010 included two 47,000-pound grain silos and a half-dozen 100-barrel fermenters, plus a few 14-barrel fermenters for experimental brews.

You can stop by and sample during open hours at the Lahaina facility, where they also launched tours of the brewing and canning areas. It’s a real get-to-know-your-beer experience.

“Not only have we won more medals than any other craft brewery in the state, but now we also have the largest capacity in Hawaii,” says Marrero. “We are honored and thankful that craft beer fans both locally and around the world have embraced our products so wholeheartedly.”

MBC was also a major catalyst behind

the Brewers Festival—Maui’s first-ever beer fest and a fundraiser for the Maui Arts & Cultural Center—which will celebrate three years in May. And their commitment to the environment is unflagging; they purchase recycled equipment whenever possible, and pass spent grain to local ranchers for compost and feed.

Their seven-barrel Kahana Brewpub is a hot spot on the West side, where patrons can sample unique brews like Santa’s Helper, Milk of Amnesia and Amber Reign on an ice bar along with gourmet pub food and regular entertainment.

With their new high speed canning line just completed—increasing their canning capacity from 27 cans per minute to 300— they refuse to rest on their laurels. Other expansions for 2011 include adding a solar array installation in the brewpub and the production brewery. Just another year for our busy little beer elves. - JR

The Community Crackerjack “Matt Lane is relentless in his passion for Maui, an uncommon quality in young, typically transient transplants,” we wrote in a 2009 cover story spotlighting Lane’s then fifth, highly successful installment of the Lahaina Town Cleanup. “More than talk, his actions speak powerfully.”

Since then, our awareness of Lane and his activism have grown. Over the last year we’ve learned that when Lane so much as casually espouses a new idea to change Maui (or the world), it’s no flighty proposition. He’s got a knack for devising innovative solutions to support his lofty ideals—which, most importantly, yield measurable results. Some of the seeds he’s helped plant and nurture to fruition this past year include the Community Work Day Program, Guitars in the Classroom and the island-wide expansion of his coastal cleanups to include the island’s South, Central, North and East shores.

His accomplishments stem from a number of qualities—he’s affable, positive and vision-driven—but maybe most of all it’s his ability to organize a team and maximize the strengths and skills of others. In fact, try to give Lane any credit for his leadership skills and he’s the first to turn around and dole it

tutelage for the past two years, creating a burgeoning wine club following.

For someone who never had a sip of alcohol until he was 19—and was introduced to wine via a box—it has been a journey. And it’s ongoing—Castle plans to pass another, even more difficult test next year and ascend to an even more rarefied sommelier status. “I’ll continue to push myself and interact with the masters of the craft,” he says. “I hope my contribution is to relate to people, with respect to wine, on a different level.” - JR

out to anyone but himself.

“I didn’t always think about these things.

Now, every day of my life I’m thinking of it,” he told us in 2009. When reminded of that now, he laughs—not at his idealism, but at how the sentiment is even truer today. - AY

The Scientartist Where the roads within your mind bifurcate between what’s human and what’s beast, what’s male and what’s female, what’s science and what’s fiction—that’s where Ghalib El-Khalidi’s artwork exists.

Darkly radiant, impossibly imaginative and endlessly fascinating, the creatures and insects he expertly creates on paper or out of polymer clay seem a peek into the mind’s eye of a god from an alternate universe.

El-Khalidi—a science illustrator who earned his MFA from Goddard College last February and who plans to pursue his second Master’s degree abroad this August— held his rookie solo exhibition, “Cabinet of Curiosities,” in September at the Paia Tattoo Parlor. Astonishingly, it was in creating this collection last summer that El-Khalidi says he discovered his skill for sculpting.

“I heard more buzz than I’d heard in a long time,” contributor Sara Tekula wrote of El-Khalidi’s show in an October 2010 cover story. “People were talking as if some mysterious, nameless artist had suddenly descended upon Maui.”

While he seems to have appeared miraculously (and although he just celebrated attaining US citizenship last spring, after a 10-year-long battle), ElKhalidi is longtime Mauian and says that

it was the enthusiastic purveyors of the parlor’s progressive new art space who literally lured him “from hiding.”

“There are so many more options to being a working artist than just selling work—which I’ve been able to do,” he says. “There are artist residencies, for example.” He decribes travel he’s already logged from the Middle East to Europe (with another two-month stint upcoming this spring). “You just have to be creative as to where and how you do it.”

Ultimately, part of the career El-Khalidi envisions for himself is working with forensics in museums, helping scientists visualize from the fossil record what ancient creatures may have looked like with flesh, feathers and fur.

But this precisionist who oozes such artful genius probably won’t limit himself to any one thing. And while he’ll soon be parting company with the Valley Isle temporarily, look out for a film debut in the

You’re out to dinner with friends and you want to order a bottle of wine off an extensive, expensive wine list. What do you do? Ask an expert. At Merriman’s Kapalua, like many restaurants these days, you can request the sommelier.

Up until recently, that sommelier was Jason “Cass” Castle. (Even if you don’t love wine, Jason’s name might be familiar; he’s penned a few wine articles that have appeared in MauiTime and has written for other publications.)

“I was going to go to law school but I figured out that you could make money drinking wine,” says Castle. “I decided that I would become a master sommelier by the time I am 34.” In October 2010 he completed the arduous advanced sommelier exam, joining a select group of less than 400 individuals—in the world.

An eccentric grape geek, Cass’s approach is anything but ordinary. “I break the ice and steal subtle points about their favorite wines and comfortable price points,” he says of his approach to patrons. “Then I ask them to pick one word that has nothing to do with the wine that describes what they want, like roses, purple or soft. [People] always love it. Ninety percent of the time they want something they love to drink, but not necessarily the perfect traditional pairing to their food.”

His legacy at Merriman’s may be the Werewolf Wine Club, where the full moon and great vino have combined under his

The Purveyor of Page and Stage Scriptwriter, educator and thespian Tom Althouse has masterfully taken on many challenging roles in the local theater scene.

He first stole our hearts playing The Emcee in ProArts Playhouse’s fall 2009 rendition of Cabaret. “From the velvet divide, out pops Althouse’s leather-sleeved arm—fingers writhing, beckoning come-hither, to the delighted squeals of the audience,” we wrote in our review.

Currently, Althouse is acting as The Boy in ProArts’ The Fantasticks, and is “having a blast” directing Montessori School of Maui students in their upcoming showcase of A Midsummer Night’s Dream. But more than his captivating onstage presence, Althouse is doing wonders for theater on Maui behind the scenes.

His witty writing chops were made evident in the recent Iao Theater ONO! (one night only) production of his original play, The Worthmores. The acumen and cohesiveness of Althouse’s baroque tale of twisted love made it seem like much more than just a reading, with cast members keeping scripts in hand, and left the audience hungry for more.

Many also know Althouse for his blog— The Truth Behind The Matrix—wherein he argues that he “wrote the screenplay that the Wachowski brothers used to create The Matrix,” and that he “was told by a Warner Brothers exec to submit it because he said Warner Brothers was going to make it.” It’s a bold claim, but does appear to be backed up by some evidence.

Althouse calls the experience a “rough spot in my life as a young writer,” but says it was the catalyst that eventually led him to Maui and sparked his interest in children’s musicals, as well as teaching theater and sports at local schools. It may not be Hollywood fame, but it’s a gig Althouse describes with one simple word: “Rewarding.” - AY ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1430a

Maui metal legends return to melt the faces of a new generation

he day I got my driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license, the first disc I put into the CD player of my gunmetal gray â&#x20AC;&#x2122;91 Honda Accord was Metallicaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ride the Lightning. And the first place I drove from my childhood home in Kulaâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;taking me all the way from â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fight Fire with Fireâ&#x20AC;? to â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Call of Ktuluâ&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x201D;was the Pauwela Cannery, where my so-called all-girl metal band shared a small practice space with Mauiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s long-lost (to Colorado) rockers Krinj.

My parents were at their witsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; end over the fact that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d culled my closet to nothing but black, and my mom was mere weeks away from stripping my room clean and throwing away all the spiked-leather Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d acquired from Malice in Wonderland (formerly in the basement of Requests). These days, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not afraid to admit that despite my earnest efforts, I was the biggest poseur on the island. Regardless, for those late-middle and early high school years I listened to and loved nothingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;nothingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but metal.

It was then that I first heard the legend that is Anesthesiaâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the metalheads whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d notoriously opened for The Red Hot Chile Peppers and Metallica on Oahu, back when I was in the third grade and my biggest influences were Free Willy and celestial dolphin painter Christian Reese Lassen.

While the girls and I tried desperately to put our own twist on Radiohead tunes, I came to kind of know Anesthesiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s drummer, Kai Katchadourian, who shared our centipede- and mold-infested hovel in Haiku. I mentioned this history during a recent interview with Kai and bandmates Tim Prest and Ian Smith (Gibran Vincente and Russell Carbonnell were unfortunately absent), ahead of their big reunion gig at Stella Blues Cafe (Friday, January 15, 9:30pm, $12).

Katchadourian doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t remember meâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;which is a good thing. Again, I was a loser. An annoying hanger-on doing every edgy-ish thing I could think of to distance myself from my Michael Jackson â&#x20AC;&#x153;Will You Be Thereâ&#x20AC;? days. A cigarette or two. Sips of Bud Light. A dragon tattoo. A Cradle of Filth sticker on the back of the Yamaha Pacifica Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d purchased for a Benjamin from Krinjâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bass player, Ian. It was my fishnet-clad bandmateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s boyfriend Willâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a redheaded thrasher who worked at Bounty Music and must have owned stock in Metallica T-shirtsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;who imparted upon me a little Maui metal mythology that

has stayed with me to this day.

Story has it, Will said, that Katchadourianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sticks and kit skills were so bad-ass that after Anesthesia opened for Metallica, Lars Ulrich nearly refused to go on, feeling heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d been upstaged. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Well, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice,â&#x20AC;? Katchadourian laughs, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but that isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exactly how it happenedâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;at all.â&#x20AC;?

He, Prest and Smith relate their memories of that March 1993 show, how theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d found out the night before they were to pack up and fly to Oahu to open for one of their idols. They say Metallicaâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;touring for their eponymous release known as The Black Albumâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;was more than gracious.

They say James Hetfield himself even stood offstage and watched their set, and that when Katchadourian was later neck-deep in a trash can emptying his belly of vodka, Ulrich shook his head endearingly and said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do that man, it reminds me of how I used to be.â&#x20AC;?

OK. Myth dispelled. It was good while it lasted. Still, Anesthesia remains at the heart of metal on Maui, and stands to take on a whole new dimension as they reemerge into the islandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s burgeoning music scene. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were the guys that broke the ground as far as playing heavy music, no question,â&#x20AC;?

Katchadourian says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Right after we started out, around â&#x20AC;&#x2122;89, we were just practicing in the bushes at a construction baseyard,â&#x20AC;? remembers Prest. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a place to playâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;so wherever there was access to electricity, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d play there.â&#x20AC;? When they finally found a consistent place to play, they were relentless. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d practice six days a week, at least,â&#x20AC;? says Smith.

The bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first-ever gig was at Makenaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pillbox (pictured, present-day) in 1988, helmed by Smith. Kihei was then Mauiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unofficial rock headquarters, and their self-

produced gigs at the old Maui High, Maui Tropical Plantation or Kalama Park were oneof-a-kindâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;especially for underage listeners. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be playing for 600 kids sometimes,â&#x20AC;? Katchadourian says. Prest adds that it was at shows like that where they came to know guys like Kale Boverman, now-owner of Stella Blues, who they credit with inspiring their reunion.

But donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t call it a reunion, really. A nostalgic throwback, if anything. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bands break up, but it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like that, it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bitter,â&#x20AC;? says Prest of the band amicably dissolving in â&#x20AC;&#x2122;95. So why reunite now? â&#x20AC;&#x153;The timing is right, and the chemistry is still there,â&#x20AC;? Katchadourian says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ultimately, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s never gone anywhere, and it was apparent the first time we all played together again.â&#x20AC;?

After the Stella Blues gig, Anesthesia plans to return to the studio to revisit their storedup work, plus new things theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve written in the decades since. They hope to have completed an album this time next year and to host a huge CD release partyâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;hopefully an all-ages thing, to harken to â&#x20AC;&#x153;back then.â&#x20AC;?

Local legends though they may be, in undertaking this new chapter theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re excited by how theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve continued to mature as musiciansâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and broadened their musical palates. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A great thing is we listen to a varied amount of musicâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;in fact, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even really listen to a whole lot of metal anymore,â&#x20AC;? Smith says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But,â&#x20AC;? Katchadourian is quick to add, â&#x20AC;&#x153;weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re still connoisseurs. This show is definitely going to exemplify and represent Anesthesia thenâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and Anesthesia 2011.â&#x20AC;? â&#x2013; To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1430ae

No ‘Dilemma’

Alleged comedy makes it easy for you: see something else The Dilemma

★★★★★

You mean people are actually going to watch this?

Rated R/111 min.

H

ow could a nice guy like Ron Howard make a movie as mean-spirited as this one? He’s made edgy and violent movies before, but they weren’t comedies and this allegedly is. It stars Vince Vaughn as a mover and shaker in the automotive industry who finds out that his best friend’s wife (Winona Ryder) is being unfaithful; he needs to break the news to his pal (Kevin James) and commit to marrying his own lovely girlfriend (Jennifer Connelly) but his hang-up over discovering the infidelity becomes an obsession.

Remember The Break-Up, another Vaughn vehicle that was supposed to be fun but turned into an ugly, depressing, yell-a-thon? This is The Break-Up II. There’s a reason a new film from Howard—who normally makes event movies like Backdraft and Apollo 13—

is being dumped into the cinematic graveyard that is January. As hard as Vaughn and the cast try, the material lets them down. James still can’t find a role as good

as his scene-stealing work in Hitch, Ryder deserves much better than the wicked girlfriend role (was Shannen Doherty too busy?) and Connelly must feel she owed

Howard a favor after winning an Oscar in his A Beautiful Mind.

There’s a scene where Vaughn gives a woefully inappropriate toast at a party. It’s vintage Vaughn and the movie’s funniest moment, but like everything else it’s ruined by the pervasive sourness. There’s a way to make anything—including infidelity and sexual secrets—funny, but apparently nobody told the makers of The Dilemma, who opt for tone-deaf nastiness at every turn.

The film became controversial last year when a snarky scene with the word “gay” was cut from the trailer following reports of homosexual teen suicides. The scene is still in the movie and Howard has defended keeping it, saying he understands the sensitivity of the issue but refuses to censor himself. He’s absolutely right in theory—but I wish he would have picked a better battle. With this flop—literally the worst movie Howard has ever made—selfcensorship is the least of his problems. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1430f

There was a time when men chivalrously laid their jackets in a pool of water to gain a womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s affection and women longingly awaited quill-penned love letters from suitors. They were suckers indeed. Fast forward to the 21st century and who needs to work that hard at romancing? With the advent of social media like Facebook and Match, one can easily wink, like, tweet or poke (um, technically speaking) their latest love interest. Blond bombshell, comedian, writer and actress Melinda Hill certainly agrees. Straight from the Comedy Central Stage at The Hudson in Los Angeles and numerous appearances on late-night TV, Melinda is bringing her hilarious production, Marriage Material, to Maui. The showâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; an interactive run-down of the dating sceneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s many pitfallsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;is great for singles, couples, ladies, dudes, tourists and, really, anyone who appreciates a good laugh. 242-7469, mauiarts.org [Dali Singh]

Friday & Saturday (January 14 & 15), 8pm, The Underground, Lahaina, $10

Lately, I’ve been toying with the notion that I can trace every opinion to some earlylife occurrence. So when wondering why, if I had to give harmonies a shape and flavor, it’d be a red, round sweetness that’s just a touch tart, I’ve traced it to this toddlerdom thought: When my single mom was still dating my soon-to-be-dad (who then lived on Oahu), he took us to a Cecilio & Kapono show at dimly lit venue that I can only recall as being the color of gingersnap cookies. The waitress brought me a big cup of maraschino cherries to keep me satiated and silent, and though I was little more than three, I’ve regretted that I didn’t express my utmost mahalo (so if you’re out there, nice lady, thank you). In thinking about how this memory has lingered, I recognize it’s mostly a testament to C&K themselves.

Their iconic harmonics were likely the first I’d ever heard, and as a prodigious patron of the arts I’ve been indelibly shaped by their performance. And I’m not alone. C&K are true living legends, and this week they’ll be accompanied by our friends at the Maui Pops Orchestra, who (if you’ll forgive me) provide the proverbial cherry on top. 242-7569, mauiarts.org

Dear under 21-ers: OMG. I, like, totally hope you know how lucky you are. In fact, as I write this, clinging to my made-up memories of an adolescence I was deprived of, I’m starting to feel increasingly resentful of your good fortune.

Until The Underground came along, when in Maui’s history have we had a late-night club where younguns could go? (No. The Fun Factory doesn’t count.) Not in my memory— which, to you, is ancient—that’s for sure. On Friday—while you get hip to MOTH, plus Entity Awakened—you not only have the chance to party (somewhat) like big kids do, but to learn the finer skills of social funambulism without the inhibitions of inebriation.

Enjoy your forced sobriety because: (1) it’s good for you; and (2) you’ll be permanently kicked out of The Underground if you break the law/house rules. You wouldn’t want that when the party continues on Saturday with DJ Blast, plus every Friday and Saturday forthcoming. So don your dope threads (or whatever you crazy kids are calling it these days) and have a great time. Because you deserve it—once you’ve finished your homework. 3575227, chilltown.com, lovelighthawaii.com P.S. Dear Grownups: Here’s your Pick: A classy Supper Club night with Paula Fuga, Mike Love and Sam Ites at Stella Blues in Kihei on Friday. Tip for the uninitiated: practice your biggest grins and bring a hankie to catch the joydrops. 874-3779, stellablues.com

HOROSCOPE

sign.language.astrology@gmail.com +

Sign Language CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) Here’s the thing about inconsistent boundaries: they’re rarely honored. Only sporadically enforce rules, and most children (and adults) will quickly realize they can get away with pretty much anything. In a way, you’re training them to misbehave, because they know if they make holding firm unpleasant enough, you’ll cave. It’s more obvious with children, but sticking to your guns is often a greater kindness with those adults in your life most likely to step across lines you’ve drawn than giving in could ever be.

Please try to dependably do so—if you can’t be consistent about it, though, there’s hardly any point in bothering at all.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) Along with Leos, Taurens, and Scorpios, you’re one of the fixed signs of the zodiac. That makes you more stubborn and resistant to personal change—especially if its impetus comes from outside yourself. That’s why this week’s sudden reversal may surprise you. You could never have expected to be feeling the way you do, given your history, and past reactions to similar stuff. This time it’s different, though, isn’t it? Don’t bother wasting time or energy struggling to analyze exactly why or how that’s so. Instead, I suggest you simply enjoy the shift and run with it.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) It’s hard to say whether patience or discipline will prove to be more important this week, but I suppose it’s safe to conclude that a hearty mix of both is probably necessary to get anywhere close to your short-term goals. Pushing too hard too soon is a sure route to crash and burn, for example. Unfortunately, consistency in these departments is something you haven’t historically been particularly good at.

Luckily for you, recent practice and a notable (and relatively new) influence should help you appropriately bide your time and stick with your efforts until you get the results you want.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) Lack of love has nothing to do with someone’s unwillingness to bend to your will. In fact, resistance to your desires may ironically have more to do with an abundance of affection, and perhaps an attempt to steer you in a different direction “for your own good.” Whether or not this is misguided (as it surely might be), the intentions aren’t cruel or selfish, but rather they’re attempting to do what’s best for you—as they see it, anyway. Knowing the benevolent intentions behind these annoying developments should rob them of any sting they might otherwise have had, and allow you to proceed with patience and understanding.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) It’s less of a big deal to hitchhike to a neighboring town than it is to try to bum rides clear across the country. The longer your journey and more people involved, the more difficult and risky such an adventure becomes. Naturally, you must weigh these potential perils whenever you consider embarking on anything with so many unknowns. Of course, everything could go perfectly smoothly, without delay or danger— but planning around such unlikely luck isn’t particularly wise. I’m not saying embrace pessimism, but running with foolhardy optimism isn’t likely to get you anywhere close to where you want to go, either.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) Half the time, warnings like, “Watch out!” or “Be careful!” come just a little too late to do you much good (sometimes, aggravatingly, even after whatever you were being warned about has already occurred). This week, however, if you pay such things close heed and react quickly, they should come just in the nick of time—or perhaps even well in advance.

So stay alert and listen attentively to what people tell you.

Quick reflexes and/or careful planning should keep you on a safe course this week, as long as you’re paying enough attention to make use of them.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) Staying true to yourself doesn’t mean forcing everyone else

to adapt to every little thing about you. You should be a constantly evolving being who’s always seeking to improve, and, specifically, becoming the kind of person others consistently enjoy being around, since you love having people around. Such evolution is a continuous, dynamic process, but it becomes easier as you develop better habits for making those around you feel comfortable and loved. Of course, since there’s an element of trial and error in such a process, you’re bound to screw up. Instead of such mistakes dragging you down, make sure they’re at least helping you along your way—by being determined to learn from them.

QUIZunderstood ANSWERS ...to questions on page 6

1. Named after Hawaiian Airlines pilot Bertram Hogg 2. Kanye West’s “Gold Digger” 3. Claws

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) You know how to roll up your sleeves and get things done.

The problem is you like doing them in your own time and your own way. Even if that’s more efficient and deadline-friendly than the instructions you’ve received, failing to heed those guidelines may reflect poorly on you. In other words, yes, your way is probably better, easier and more enjoyable. In this case, though, it’s just not the best way. This week, it’s probably in your best interest to swallow your pride and mostly just do as you’re told. There are times to rock the boat and shake things up, but this isn’t one of them.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) Although to you it may seem as if some are living in extreme states of excess and decadence, their perception may be one of existing mostly modestly, with only a couple indulgences.

This difference in perspective is a likely source of conflict this week, if you’re not careful about who you express it to, and how. I understand where you’re coming from, but ask yourself just what expression of this particular opinion is likely to accomplish. Since it’d probably just piss people off without encouraging much in the way of change, you might be best off simply biting your tongue—for now, anyway.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) It’s understandable that Grandma may be a bit of a prude, given her upbringing, but the same sense of fraught propriety on you would be as out of place as if you wore Victorian corsetry on a daily basis and always spoke without contractions. That’s not to say you must abandon all your more traditional values; just that clinging to them out of principle, instead of real, heartfelt sincerity, will come off as artificial, pretentious, and just plain weird. When was the last time you gave them a thorough examination and made sure they still made sense to you? If it wasn’t recent, this week is an excellent time to do just that.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) In a relationship, there are always things you’d like to change about your partner, and vice versa. It’s perfectly fair to encourage or require that they change some things (asking someone to quit smoking). Making such transitions, while challenging, is likely to result in both of you being happier and better off. Other demands are perhaps more reflective of a general incompatibility than anything else. If you’re making such requests (or they’re being made of you), it may be time to consider moving on.

However, before you do, make sure it’s because what’s being asked for is essentially unfair, not because it’s just something you’re too lazy or stubborn to do.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC.21) Dying your hair or getting contacts to replace your glasses is an easy way to subtly alter the first impression you create, but a more profound and effective way—albeit a more difficult one—is to change the attitude with which you approach new people. Sagittarians are usually excellent at meeting others for the first time, but if you are going to fall flat, it’s usually for one of two reasons: coming off as too blunt or gruff, or appearing to try too hard. These are actually pretty easy pitfalls to avoid, as long as you keep a scrutinizing eye on what you say and how you say it. This week, make sure you do.
