Coconut Wireless WATERSHED WAR WAGED! It shows how little power Democrats hold in the U.S. House of Representatives when I get a press release that says Congress member Mazie Hirono, D-2nd District, is right now “fighting” to restore “$3 million in funding to the Watershed Protection and Flood Program.”

work in Wailuku Town, there is nothing more important or controversial.

For many years now, the town has relied on a ragged 208-stall public lot bordered by Main, Market, Church and Vineyard Streets and ruthlessly patrolled

by Maui PD meter maid Officer Keith Taguma to fulfill its parking needs. And for many years now, that lot has been totally

“Even after five years, Wailuku’s parking plan still has a long way to go.”

That’s right. Three million dollars American. People, and not even really super-rich people, live in houses that cost more than that. But that’s apparently what it comes down to when Republicans control the House.

“This program supports our state and local governments’ ability to improve agricultural water delivery systems for farmers in Hawaii — especially along the Hamakua Coast of Hawaii Island and in upcountry Maui, and in developing flood protection infrastructure for Hilo and Lahaina,” Hirono said in her office’s June 16 press release.

According to Hirono (who next year will run for the U.S. Senate seat currently held by Democrat Daniel Akaka), the 60-year-old program (which was eliminated in Fiscal Year 2011) will help 170 farmers upcountry and protect 200 homes, 35 condos, 160 commercial buildings and four public buildings that lie within the Lahaina floodplain.

Hirono says she won “strong bipartisan support” to keep the program funded.

In Washington, any appropriation less than a billion dollars is pretty much invisible. That Hirono had to battle so hard to keep such a tiny scrap of pork alive shows how serious House Republicans are about slashing government spending.

WAILUKU MUNICIPAL PARKING STRUCTURE REVEALED! Well, sort of. On June 17, the Maui Redevelopment Agency met and discussed the design for the proposed Wailuku Municipal Parking Structure.

It probably sounds pretty dull, and in fact kind of was (I stayed only an hour because of pressing editorial duties back at the office) but for those who

So a few years ago, county officials embarked on a plan to build a giant parking structure on the site of that lot (check out my June 26, 2006 story “Parking

NEWS BRIEFS

verbally ripped them to shreds, criticizing their look, their reliance on commercial development, cost, etc. Everyone, literally, went back to the drawing board.

Which brings us to today, and the new design offered by the Honolulu-based architectural firm Alison-Ide. In practical terms, it works just fine: five levels offering space for 418 cars (48 of those stalls are in a “remnant lot” next to the structure designated “mixed-use”). It would be a mostly open structure, built of precast concrete, aluminum and fiberglass with no internal columns, planters, or fire sprinklers (the Maui Fire Department apparently signed off on this).

The elevators would feature glass windows and the whole thing would be a “very open building,” said one architect. Another AlisonIde architect said shoe-horning the 45-foottall structure into the current lot’s footprint was “complex” and “extremely difficult.”

What’s more, the total cost of the garage hovers between $13 million and $15 million, depending on whether the county wants the garage to have one or two elevators, a photo-voltaic roof that would generate nearly 20 percent of the building’s electricity, pretty skylights on the tops of the stairwells

Of course, that doesn’t mean the garage isn’t controversial. Two dozen people sat and stood at the MRA hearing during the architect’s presentation, and the collective mood among local business owners was pretty clear: it’s ugly. “It is big, boxy and tall,” said activist Barbara Long. “[It has] embellishments on facades that seem to mimic Kahului shopping malls. That green color is everywhere.”

Alison-Ide’s response was simple: to keep costs down, “it has to look like a parking structure.”

There’s also the issue of where everyone who currently uses the Wailuku lot would park during construction, but that’s even more open-ended than the garage itself. Even after five years, Wailuku’s parking plan still has a long way to go.

and elegant medallions on the structure that evoke the town’s Art Deco features (though these items are optional features, they all appeared in Alison-Ide’s presentation drawings of what the structure would ultimately look like). The garage would seem to be all that Wailuku Town is looking for.

EH BRAH!

NEWS OF THE WEIRD GIDDYUP! When a strain of equine herpes led to a temporary quarantine at horse farms in central Utah, the sponsors of the Davis County Mounted Posse Junior Queen contest in May faced a dilemma. But instead of canceling the competition in which the cowgirls show their skills on horseback, they decided to conduct the show with the girls instead “riding” stick “ponies” to get style points. Former queen Savanna Steed told KSL-TV the change would be good because it would better test riders’ knowledge of the routines instead of their relying on their horses to make the moves.

QUESTIONABLE JUDGMENT

UNCLEAR ON THE CONCEPT

Former Camden, N.J., police Sgt. Jeffrey Frett pleaded guilty in May in a scheme to qualify for early retirement by arranging to be shot in the leg (to be attributed to random street violence). The plan deteriorated, police said, when Frett’s wife (the designated shooter) missed his leg, merely ripping a hole in his uniform pants. And Ryan Martin, 29, and Erica Clayburn, 20, were charged with reckless endangerment in Derry Township, Pa., in April after Martin was shot in the jaw. The couple were playing a game resembling “Marco Polo” with a loaded handgun, with an eyes-closed Clayburn firing when Martin shouted “Gun!” (Martin was supposed to duck out of the way before Clayburn pulled the trigger.)

India’s Ganges River has become famously polluted, in part by reverent Hindu pilgrims who toss “offerings” (such as clothing, statues and the cremated ashes of loved ones) into it in hope of prosperous lives and holy afterlives.

Hindu immigrants in New York City, without access to the Ganges, have called upon Jamaica Bay as a stand-in. The formerly quiet waters adjacent to JFK International Airport now ebb and flow with similar offerings that ultimately litter the bay’s federal recreation area shoreline.

Hindu community leaders in New York, with only mixed success, constantly urge greater environmental sensitivity.

THE CONTINUING CRISIS Mattel revealed that its best-selling fashion doll in the last year, for the age six-and-up market, has been the teen werewolf “Monster High” model, Clawdeen Wolf, who comes with heavy makeup, a short skirt and high boots, and who supposedly spends her time “waxing, plucking and shaving.” (Says Clawdeen, in promotional materials, “My hair is worthy of a shampoo commercial, and that’s just what grows on my legs.”) Though Mattel claims the doll celebrates girls’ imperfections, a counselor told Fox News she was appalled that the company tells young girls they “need to sculpt, tweeze, wax and... change their bodies” to attract men.

CYBER MAKING-OUT Tokyo’s Kajimoto Laboratory has created a tongue-kissing machine to enable lovers to suck face over the Internet, according to a May CNN report. At separate locations, the pair place special straws in their mouths and mimic a deep kiss, which is recorded and transmitted to each other’s straws. Researcher Nobuhiro Takahashi sees profit in “celebrity” tongue-kissing applications, but said more work is needed to establish individual taste, breathing and tongue moistness. (Another team of Japanese researchers, using a harnesstype device, reported making similar advances — in Internet “hugging,” with sensors that mimic lovers’ heartbeats and even their spine’s “tingling” and stomach’s “butterflies.”)

Principal Terry Eisenbarth apologized to parents and children at Washington Elementary School in Mount Vernon, Iowa, in May and promised to stop his ritual “whammies,” in which he summons kids on their birthdays to his office, sings “Happy Birthday” to them, and ceremonially spanks the child’s backside with a cushioned hockey stick (with the number of whacks equaling the child’s age).

To the jogger who shouts a fundamentalist religious motto while holding prayer beads associated with another tradition whenever I’m walking past: I get it. It’s your mission to gather up as many “wayward souls” as you can—including people of other faiths—as long as you can shout your message while running in the opposite direction and they don’t outweigh you. Seriously brah, you could use a lesson in marketing, to say nothing of manners.

A simple “Good morning” and a smile might open a lot more doors for you than simply yelling religious cliches. Instead, you’ve made me—and most others, I have no doubt—less likely to convert and more likely to file a restraining order against you and your God. ■

CREME DE LA WEIRD In May, based on five women’s complaints, Virginia Beach, Va., police arrested restaurateur Henry Fitzsimmons, 54, for abduction and sexual assault for harshly beating them as punishment for violating the terms of the “scholarship” he supposedly offered them.

The women claim that Fitzsimmons is a devotee of the “Spencer Plan” of orderly discipline, in which contracting parties adhere to agreed-on roles but at a cost of being physically disciplined if they fail. Fitzsimmons acknowledged his fascination with the Spencer Plan, but denied the assaults, pointing out that he had fired one of the women and that the other four were helping her retaliate.

FINE POINTS OF THE LAW In a pre-trial motion in a Chicago court case in May, the defense lawyer for Exotic Motors Inc., which is being sued over car repairs, complained about plaintiffs’ lawyers’ unusual decision to permit a female paralegal to sit at their courtroom table, especially since she is a “large-breasted woman.” Her “sole purpose” at the table, lamented defense lawyer Thomas Gooch, was “to draw the attention of the jury,” presumably in favor of the plaintiffs.

Gooch later told the Chicago Daily Law Bulletin that he was concerned only with her “qualifications” to sit at the table. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1501n

IMUA FAMILY SERVICES GETS NEW E.D., AWARD

Services for the developmentally disabled children just got a bit sweeter for kids on Maui: Imua Family Services (imuafamilyservice.org) named Dean Wong their new Executive Director. What’s more, Program Director Christi Masters came home with a Pacific Business News 40 under 40 award this weekend.

Imua Family Services serves more than 2,500 Maui and Lanai residents through their Infant and Child Development Program, Early Childhood Development Program, Newborn Hearing Screening and Camp Imua. Wong says the need for these programs on Maui—which fall out of the scope of the Department of Education’s Special Education Services—is limited only by their resources.

Former Executive Director Karen Jayne left in February, and the Board of Directors formed a national search for a replacement.

Board President Brian Kakihara said Wong’s combination of vision, compassion and management expertise made him their ideal candidate. Wong has a 15-year background in health and human services and non-profit leadership, having served as house manager of Maui Arts and Cultural

Center and former director of HIV/AIDS prevention services at Maui Aids Foundation.

Masters has been with Imua Services since 2005, helping children improve physical movement, communication and personal and social skills through physical therapy, speech therapy and other services that the DOE does not provide to children with developmental disabilities. PBN’s Forty under 40 Award recognizes Hawaii’s brightest young business professionals.

“My game plan is to bring us back to a time when we supported each other and each others' families as in the village community,” said Wong. “We are not isolated on this island, we are dependent on each other, we need to pull together, work together, care for each other in order to fully live together.”

KAHALA OPENS NEW STORE IN WHALER’S VILLAGE Kahala, one of Hawaii’s oldest garment brands—celebrating 75 years this year—is spreading their love to Maui. Now you can find and wear the work of local Maui Artist (and former Surfer magazine founder) John Severson in Kaanapali’s Whaler’s Village. Severson was on hand at their grand opening to sign posters.

Kahala has been based Honolulu since 1936 and continues to keep their design and manufacturing in Hawaii. General Manager Cheryl Alves says, “Inspirations from flora and fauna can be seen in their island style shirts, that also depict scenes from Hawaii’s rich water sport history like surfing, paddling and fishing.”

You will find both old prints and new prints in their design line, which is for men and boys. In fact, Hawaii surfing legend Duke Kahanamoku’s favorite designs are still available on the hanger.

This is their second store in the state. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1501m

Hawaii Loves War!

Or, the top five hilarious things I learned about our state’s addiction to military spending

L

iving on Maui, with its mostly undeveloped landscape and near complete lack of military facilities, makes it easy to think that America’s global war on terrorists, dictators and all-around bad dudes is

In fact, while reading (okay, perusing) the 52-page report, I learned five funny things about Hawaii’s growing addiction to the money that surrounds our nation’s all-butunstoppable legions and war machines:

1. There are currently more than 75,000 service members and DOD personnel in the state today. Of those, nearly twothirds (48,000) are active duty, 18,000 are civilians and the rest are National

is considerably more than the 56,000 personnel stationed here in 1999.

2. The money spent by those service members and on military contracts for Hawaii companies in the state is huge.

“We estimated annual average defense expenditures, after adjustments, of $6.527 billion in FY 2007–2009 (2009 dollars) and found that they accounted for economy wide output of $12.220 billion,

3. This is more money than that spent by tourists visiting the state in 2009, says a June 1 Honolulu Civil Beat story. And it’s not that close, either: according to state Department of Business, Economic Development and Tourism figures cited in the story, visitors spent just $10 billion in the state in 2009. Who knew that eternal summers, swaying palms and $8 Mai Tais were better for national security than vacations?

“Who knew that eternal summers, swaying palms and $8 Mai Tais were better for national security than vacations?” something far away. Not according to the Rand Corporation’s new study “How Much Does Military Spending Add to Hawaii’s Economy?” which came out in early June.

Guard or reserves. This is of course down from the stratospheric number of service members stationed here back in the From Here to Eternity days, but

or 18.4 percent of Hawaii’s 2009 GDP, along with $3.506 billion in earnings and 101,533 jobs,” stated the report.

4. Defense Department contracts with Hawaii firms have doubled since the mid1990s, according to the Rand report.

In 1995, military contracts were $910 million. By 2009, that number stood at nearly $2.4 billion. Of course, this number wasn’t equally spread out across the state. “Hawaii-based procurement varied across counties, ranging from $10 million and $27 million in Maui and Hawaii counties, respectively, to $106 million in Kauai and $2.162 billion in Honolulu,” stated the report.

“Honolulu County accounted for 94 percent of total procurement.”

5. Military pay is way better than civilian pay. “Active-duty service members and DoD civilian employees earned more on average than Hawaii’s full-time workforce,” stated the Rand report. “In 2007–2009, median earnings for activeduty personnel were $74,900, and those for DoD civilians were $69,800 (2009 dollars). The median earnings of fulltime workers in Hawaii were $40,000 (ages 17 and older) or $37,400 (ages 17 to 50).” With numbers like that, you’d think the 1893 coup against Queen Liliuokalani only happened last year. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1501u

POLICE DEPARTMENT T REFUSES

TO GIVE UP

THE NAMES OF

SUSPENDED

OFFICERS

BBYY AANTHONY NTHONY PIGNATARO

10 JUNE 23, 2011

I

t doesn’t take long for someone perusing the State of Hawaii’s Uniform Information Practices Act to realize that the so-called “Information Age” hasn’t yet reached our shores. In fact, as far as law enforcement is concerned, our state is still mired in an Age of Exemption.

I was reminded of this while reading the May 22 Maui News story “Six Officers Disciplined With Suspensions.” The story, which ran just 11 paragraphs and carried no byline, outlined disciplinary actions levied against six Maui police officers during March and April of this year. Misconduct ranged from one officer backing into a car while trying to park to an officer acting “uncooperative and disrespectful” towards other officers while off duty. Sanctions included reprimands,

both oral and written, as well as suspensions of one to five days.

Missing from the story was any identifying details of the disciplined officers. Instead, the story’s penultimate paragraph said passively, “The names of the officers were not made public.”

And there the matter ends. Asking MPD why the policy exists turned out to be a waste of time. First I asked Lt. Wayne Ybarra, the Maui Police Department’s Community Relations Officer. He said that

he would forward MauiTime’s written request for an explanation to Chief Gary Yabuta. After a week of not receiving a response, I asked Ybarra again. On June 8, Ybarra forwarded the request again to Yabuta, as well as Deputy Chief Clayton Tom, Assistant Chief Danny Matsuura, Assistant Chief Wayne Ribao, Captain Mollie Klingman and Captain Lawrence Hudson. None of them responded either.

Then on June 13, Lisa Ann Tomita of the department’s Community Relations ➤

The department’s complete unwillingness to discuss the issue isn’t surprising, because they simply don’t have to. ➤ Section finally responded.

“Thank you for your patience,” she wrote. “The Maui Police Department does not provide names of the Officers who were disciplined.”

And that was it. Of course, the department’s complete unwillingness to discuss the issue isn’t surprising, because they simply don’t have to. That’s because the state’s information practices law makes a special exemption for law enforcement officers who are disciplined for misconduct.

Alone among government employees, cops put on suspension don’t have to worry about their names becoming public. For Lois K. Perrin, the legal director of the American Civil Liberties Union’s Hawaii office, this is a big problem.

“While the ACLU believes that, as a whole, Hawaii open records law provides a good balance between government transparency and personal privacy, we believe that the Legislature may have given too much deference to county police departments,” Perrin said. “The public trust in the police is increased when the police departments can show that they conduct thorough investigations into allegations of misconduct and that they hold officers accountable when appropriate. Denying public access to such records hampers the public’s constitutional right to hold the government accountable.”

University of Hawaii journalism professor Gerald Kato thinks the law is simply absurd. “You can get details about university professors and even janitors who’ve been disciplined,” he told me, “but not police officers.”

To be fair, not all of the misconduct incidents outlined in The Maui News article seem to warrant full public disclosure.

I think we as a society can survive not knowing the identity of the officer handed a three-day suspension for “posting derogatory and demeaning comments on a social network in August.” But the public

should certainly know the names of the officers sanctioned for being “disrespectful” to fellow officers, “being untruthful and falsifying a report,” “failing to follow orders” and for failing “to act professionally while issuing a traffic citation.”

What’s more, many officers who’ve been disciplined remain unknown even to members of the Maui Police Commission, said one commissioner who requested anonymity. “I support the policy [of not releasing the names of disciplined officers],” the commissioner said, “but I can see why making some of the names public would be good for government accountability.”

During six years of reporting on Maui County, I can’t recall a single instance when the department willingly gave me the name of an officer—even in circumstances that were favorable. In 2003, for instance, I asked then Maui police spokesman Sergeant Jamie Becraft for a list of any awards or citations received by one patrol officer whose name I had somehow obtained. Becraft refused.

For Kato, the contrast in policies between Hawaii and many large Mainland cities and states couldn’t be clearer—or more maddening.

“You hear about a police shooting in New York, and then there’s an article in The New York Times detailing who the officer was, how long he’s been on the force and if there are any disciplinary actions against him,” he said.

In fact, lots of news sources aren’t nearly as willing as The Maui News to give cops such protection. On May 23 WSAV in Savannah, Georgia reported on the dashcam video of an alleged act of excessive force

by Effingham County Sheriff’s Investigator Jeremy Scott. On May 24, King 5 News in Seattle ran a story on three Seattle police officers – Brett Schoenberg, Casey Steiger and Corey Williams – who were suspended for cursing at a suspect they were arresting.

And on May 25, the San Antonio Express News ran a detailed story on Northside Independent School District police officer

Daniel Alvarado’s considerable history of official reprimands and counseling sessions after he shot and killed a 14-year-old boy who was running from him.

Hawaii’s special exemption appears in Section 92F-14 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes, which outlines examples of “significant privacy interests.” If you go to subparagraph (b), then sub-subparagraph (4), and then find section (B) of that, and scroll down to sub-sub-sub-subparagraph (v), you’ll find that public employee misconduct information is indeed public unless the employee is a “county police department officer” and then the whole public information thing “shall not apply.”

Of course, the exemption is not absolute.

According to an attorney at the state Office of Information Practices who spoke on background, police agencies in Hawaii must release the names of law enforcement officers who’ve been terminated, as long as they’ve exhausted all of their appeals.

According to Kato, that could take years.

The OIP also states that the exemption is still subject to the so-called “balancing test.”

According to the OIP attorney, even though police agencies do not automatically have to disclose the names of officers who’ve been suspended for misconduct, the information can still be weighed against the public interest—the need for government to be accountable and functioning properly.

Of course, this hardly ever happens.

It didn’t used to be this way. In 1993, a group of Kato’s students—who constituted the student chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists—asked the Honolulu Police Department for the names of officers who’d been recently disciplined in some way. The department balked, demanding an absurd $20,000 in research fees from the students. Eventually, the matter got kicked over to OIP. At the time, law enforcement personnel in Hawaii were—as far as the Information Practices Law was concerned—just like any

other public servant. So the OIP ordered the department to comply and hand over the names. HPD eventually said they would comply, and announced they would release the names on Feb. 11, 1994.

But on Feb. 10, the powerful State of Hawaii Organization of Police Officers (SHOPO) sued the City of Honolulu on behalf of four unnamed (naturally) cops in an attempt to block the disclosure. According to Kato, SHOPO also began levying special dues on its members to pay for an intensive lobbying campaign in the state Legislature (officials with SHOPO did not respond to a request for comment for this story).

In 1996 the SHOPO lawsuit reached the Hawaii Supreme Court, which ruled in favor of Kato’s students. By then though, it was a moot victory. A year earlier, SHOPO’s lobbyists convinced the Legislature to pass the now familiar police department exemption to the state’s Information Practices Law. The bill had already become law—without then-Governor Ben Cayetano’s signature—back in May 1995.

There was one “compromise.” After the exemption went into effect, all county police departments in Hawaii had to file regular reports listing statistical information on disciplinary actions—the basis of the May 22 Maui News story.

“I never recognized it as a compromise,” Kato said. “The statistical information doesn’t tell you who the officers are, or if the officers were involved in other incidents.”

Perhaps most discouraging, Kato says he can’t think of any challenges made to the exemption—either inside or outside the Legislature—since it went into effect.

“The Legislature created the Information Practices law, and they can make modifications as they see fit,” Kato said. “My students won on the principle and lost on everything else.” ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1501a

Creamy Cheesy Dreams

SIZZLING SUMMER SPECIAL 3-COURSE FONDUE FOR $30 per person

Visiting Surfing Goat Dairy’s little slice of heaven

I

’ve never given much thought to the production of goat cheese. Luckily I don’t have to. Thomas and Eva Kafsack, who own Surfing Goat Dairy in Kula—one of Maui’s top agri-tourist destinations—already have.

What I found after an afternoon at the dairy is that it’s a very involved process that took them years to research and refine.

Installing the equipment and animals required a $500,000 initial investment, and the farm continues to evolve. The Kafsacks’ most recent investments: installing irrigation to 40 acres due to the drought situation, and photovoltaic panels to solar power the farm.

When you take their tour you get a taste for all the work that goes into their delicious and award-winning cheese and chocolate. The farm has lots of feathers in their goat herding caps, with 18 awards from the American Cheese Society and the American Dairy Goat Association. After you check in at the front, farm staff hands you a paper bag with some hay.

That’s right: it’s time to feed some goats.

I happen to love livestock, and the personalities of goats are quirky as the flavors of their cheese. The goats here are Saanens, Alpines and La Mancha. You will meet some of the dams and yearlings, the moms and tweens, basically. They mob you at the fence because your bag contains the equivalent of goat candy, the sweet, coveted hay they can’t wait for you to dish out.

Next you get to the milking

Go With The Ebb And Flow

ALBUM OF THE WEEK

And turn color into sound

C

rescendo and contortion. Echo and engagement. Twists and turns. It’s all a part of a contemporary musicmeets-art showcase where sounds have color, colors have sound and everything is alive with movement. And you, too, are part of the show.

It’s not your typical concert.

Whereas there’s oft a bifurcation between what’s classic and what’s avantgarde, local non-profit Ebb & Flow Arts remedies the dichotomy with delightful deft. Their abstract yet articulate events bring together some of the isle’s most skilled musicians, fine artists and modern dancers—plus special guest musicians from around the globe—to perform cuttingedge, multimedia concerts across the state (with three of the five shows in their “A Little More Summer Music, Please” series slated for the Valley Isle). It’s collaborative, captivating and best off all, complimentary.

“It’s all kind of mysterious in a way, but an interesting process,” says Keokea resident Robert Pollock, who founded the organization in 1999.

He’s talking about an uncommon “multimedia experiment”—its unique practice based on the prolific early 20th century writings of Russian art theorist Wassily Wassilyevich Kandinsky, who is considered one of the father’s of abstract art.

“We discovered the Kandinsky experiments while going over his writings several years ago,” says Pollock. “We learned that he described a process, but there’s no record of the results. So, we decided to try to replicate the process.”

Pollock says that Ebb & Flow has since conducted the experiment hundreds of times.

“Basically it involves musicians selecting one of several abstract images,” he says.

“Then a musician—or in our case, more than one musician—improvises to that painting, taking visual cues from it. So instead of reading a musical score or improvising from a lead sheet, we’re improvising from colors and shapes. That’s the first translation across the media.”

Next, Pollock describes how dancers— who have not seen the images—“begin moving to the music.” When the piece is complete, the dancers then view all the images the musicians had to select from and determine which painting they believe they were dancing to. “That’s the second level of translation,” Pollock explains. “The process begins—and ends—with an image [and] what we’ve found is common ground

between the media through motion.”

Pollock says that two out of three times, a dancer is readily able to “figure out which image she danced to.” The audience members—who like the dancers are not privy to the image in advance—are invited to be a part of the discovery process as the images are digitally projected onstage after the piece. Often the consensus is unanimous.

This is just one of several sections of Friday’s (June 24) program, and building upon the Kandinsky experiment is another improvisational, multimedia engagement called “stage composition” where three artists collaborate on a triptych (i.e. tri-paneled painting) to live improvisational music, interpreting amorphous sonance into color and form.

To add structure, they go so far as to orchestrate their efforts to match the number of beats in a measure to the selection of colors in their palette.

Later, the audience is invited onstage to either play music or dance to it. The program also includes the premier of a piece titled “Vibiano,” composed by Pollock for vibraphone and piano and jazz selections

by Maui Jazz Quartet.

“We’re delighted to continue our statewide exploration of the avant-garde in music and art,” says Pollock, who is also the director emeritus of the Composers Guild of New Jersey, and holds an M.F.A. in musical composition from Princeton. As a composer, his awards and commissions come from preeminent institutions like the Guggenheim Fellowship and National Endowment of the Arts (NEA) Grant Fellowship. As a concert pianist, his resume includes solo recitals from Moscow, Russia to Seoul, Korea to Tokyo, Japan; and he’s premiered more than 100 compositions by international composers and coordinated more than 300 concerts. In short, that means Pollock’s got chops like Chopin as he

aims to share his and his fellows’ enthusiasm for ear-and eye candy with Mauians, keiki to kupuna.

The impetus of their programs is to keep quality, progressive music accessible to anyone and everyone, creating and producing work that’s “multicultural, multidisciplinary, educational, and inter-generational.”

They aim to “break barriers” and bridge divides with the “understand(ing) that music is the universal language,” and do so by presenting classic pieces from the likes of Maurice Ravel, to world premiers of new compositions.

So how do they do it all and keep patrons’ cost to zip? Mad grant writing.

Their programs are funded by generous awards from New York’s Aaron Copland Fund for Music, Honolulu’s Korean American Foundation, the State Foundation on Culture and the Arts, Maui County Office of Economic Development, Hawaii Tourism Authority, National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), among others, plus private contributions.

Highly involved in local schools, arts education is tantamount to their creative process. “Not only are we building an audience right now, but building an artist for years to come,” Pollack sys. “These kids are our future educators, and future musicians.” ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1501ae

THE STROKES Angles (RCA; 2011).

In 2006, the Strokes went on a hiatus. It took them five years to give us this album. The Strokes have been credited for defining their generation with early hits like “Last Night” or “Reptilia.” But Angles is ample proof that the Strokes would rather mimic past rock acts from the ‘70s and ‘80s. That mimicry is so prevalent in Angles that The Strokes could easily be mistaken as a retro cover band. “Games” has heavy synths reminiscent of Roxy Music.

“Gratisfaction” has the melodic and distorted guitars similar to Thin Lizzy tunes. The muted guitars and echoes from The Cars are all over “Two Kinds of Happiness.” The opener, “Machu Piccu” is almost indistinguishable from the New Wave reggae-inspired tunes of Joe Jackson. But despite the obvious homage to rock giants from decades ago, the Strokes retain their distinct—and irritating—sound. Like past albums, Angles features more of the trembling guitars and light drums making them sound like it was recorded in a tin can coming out of cheap speakers. And the ever-present distorted microphone makes it sound like frontman Julian Casablancas is singing to us over the telephone.

While many of the tunes are certainly worth a listen, they do not stick with you. It drifts aimlessly from one end of the album to the next. This is not their best—even if you are a fan.

Cars 2 Caught In Speed Trap Cars 2

★★★★★

Rated PG/120 min.

I

n the town of Radiator Springs, where everyone is a talking automobile, Lightning McQueen (voiced by Owen Wilson) is enjoying his fame as a prize winning racer.

A French race car named Francesco (voiced by John Turturro) challenges McQueen on a TV broadcast, motivating McQueen to travel to Europe, along with his best friend Mater (voiced by Larry the Cable Guy), a rickety tow truck and a source of trouble wherever he goes. Also in the mix is spy Finn McMissile (voiced by Michael Caine) and his right-hand woman-er, car--Holley Shiftwell (voiced by Emily Mortimer), as well as a subplot involving a planned act of terrorism.

After a 15-year run of making animated features either great or even better than that, Pixar finally gets caught in a speed trap.

Unlike last summer’s Toy Story 3, here is a sequel we didn’t want or need. This isn’t a disaster or embarrassment- Pixar is too good for that. The animation is vivid and lively, even as the story and jokes come off like clunky lug nuts.

The original Cars is my least favorite Pixar movie but, in comparison to the sequel, it had charm and moments of startling beauty.

Taking the story out of Radiator Springs was a huge mistake, as that appealingly designed setting offered more opportunities for inventive scenarios and character humor than the new locale chosen. Also, you can’t replace Paul Newman, whose performance as Doc Hudson in the 2006 original was both the heart of the film and Newman’s final performance. The character is respectfully put to rest in the follow-up but you feel the void left by Newman, who gave a center to all the wackiness.

Another big mistake was making Mater the main character. Even in the form of an adorably buck-toothed tow truck, a little of

One big happy used car parking lot...

Larry the Cable Guy goes a long way (just try sitting through his live-action movies. I have, and never will again).

The message here (one of many, actually), is that you need to love the friends who are sometimes a real pain in the trunk. Fair enough, but Mater really is a nuisance to McQueen and just one of the many stereotypes on wheels the movie takes for a feature-length spin. The James Bond parody gives us the welcome combo of Caine and Mortimer, but the spoof is mild and Caine did this sort of thing better in Austin Powers in Goldmember.

Turturro’s cheesy villain is amusing but he’s as lightweight as the gentle touch Wilson brings to McQueen and there’s not much here to get excited about. Every previous Pixar film has a show stopper, in terms of an action set piece or an emotional tear jerker, which made it a Pixar essential,

but not this one.

It’s no wonder kids love Cars so much, as the characters already resemble toys, even more so than the cast of Toy Story. The fourwheeled cast has eyes that look painted on and the cityscapes they explore feel more like Hot Wheels sets. We also see how cars can give one another fist bumps with their tires, a typical example of the film’s cornball sense of humor.

Only those who loved the original will give this one a spin. Hawaiian Vacation, the Toy Story short that precedes Cars 2, is a shorter, much funnier and better film. Pixar stunned everyone last summer with the emotionally charged and wonderful Toy Story 3 but Cars 2 is the first Pixar sequel that feels like it was made by some other factory. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1501f

Uncle SLAM Wants You

Thursday (June 23), 7pm, ProArts Playhouse, Kihei; $25

Thursday (June 23), 9:30pm, Casanova, Makawao; $10 ($5 before 9:30pm)

During his Male Shining Star Award acceptance speech at the Maui Film Festival last Saturday, actor Andrew Garfield (Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, The Social Network) used the word â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jewaiianâ&#x20AC;? when thanking Ben Goodman for his expert organizational work. It got a bit of a laugh, so I tweeted it. Boss bassist Shawn Michael (@shawnmichael808) repliedâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;ever the insta-Wikipedia of Maui musicâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;saying â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jewaiianâ&#x20AC;? was also a â&#x20AC;&#x153;term of endearment (for) guitarist Avi Ronen, uttered by Willie K at Barry Fest 2009.â&#x20AC;? Well, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the headlineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s back story so sensitive folk canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t berate me for it... But I digress. The point is, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m here to tell you about â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Rabbi Meets the Kupuna,â&#x20AC;? the third annual dialogue exploring coincidental kinship between Kabbalah and Kahuna. (Makes sense. After all, The Torah says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;And the Almighty formed the man of dust from the ground, and He blew into his nostrils the soul of life,â&#x20AC;? which, to me, seems reminiscent of bridge-bone-bonding Hawaiian honi.) Rabbi Yizchak Schwartz is traveling all the way from Jerusalem to join a panel alongside local ladies Auntie Maile Shaw and Auntie Pua Mahoe. The very idea of this program tickles my fancy unlike any other; but add to the event a dessert buffet and comfortable theater-in-the-round seating, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m in Heaven (or wherever). The program concludes with a Q&A session, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be the one asking how to go about making a menehune golem. 268-6112; sourceofhealing@gmail.com

Is it just me or is Uncle Sam freaky? I know heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s supposed to look strong and stately as the personification of our nationâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but his pallid carapace, hooded glare, crooked point... Ugh. He gives me the heebie jeebies. Artist James Montgomery Flaggâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s responsible for the iconic visageâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; needed a joint. Or five. Wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that be interesting if Flaggâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s high style was a la Rick Griffin? Or Peter Max? But I digress. The point is that this monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s installment of Maui SLAM is clever as everâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; ahead of Independence Dayâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;with a call to action from none other than Uncle SLAM. Participants are encouraged to speak up (just make sure you sign up by 9:30pm) with original works under three minutes run-time. As always, costumes, visual accompaniment and team pieces are encouraged, and a $100 winnertakes-all cash prize is on the line. Also this month, the nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s augmented with a wax attack by DJ Boomshot (plus a dance party to follow), and special guests â&#x20AC;&#x153;Roxy Hartâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Velma Kellyâ&#x20AC;? of the Kit Kat Club Cabaretâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;billed as â&#x20AC;&#x153;two fiercely independent dames who define freedom in terms of jazz, cabarets and liquorâ&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x201D;will spice up the interlude (and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m certain Uncle Samâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;or Slamâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;would want that, too). 572-0220; facebook.com/mauislam

Andagi. You’ve got to get some. It’s, like, donut dumplings from Planet Omnomnom. So sweet and greasy, even if the Maui Okinawan Festival only offered andagi, it would be worth attending the event. But beyond this divine Oki dessert, the good news is that there’s plene kine ono grinds at this annual cultural celebration, brought to you by the Maui Okinawan Kenjin Kai (MOKK) and Hawaii United Okinawa Association (HUOA). Organizers invite “uchinanchu and uchinanchu-at-heart” to join in on the fun by trying on traditional garb and posing for a picture, playing games, shopping their mini craft fair, perusing the colorful cultural display and enjoying onstage demonstrations. Speaking of the latter, Okinawan cultural clubs and practitioners run the gamut from daiko and taiko drumming to odori dance (fun fact: this dance style originated way back in the Edo, or Tokugawa, period more than 400 years ago). But naturally, my favorite folks performing are my comrades in arms from Komei Juku Maui, a burgeoning samurai swordsmanship group under the tutelage of Bob Montgomery Sensei and Guy Junker Sensei. But I digress. The point is, you need to go. And not just for the desserts. But please know that if you cut ahead in the andagi line, I know how to use a sword. 70 E. Kaahumanu Ave., Kahului; mauimall.com

Ruth’s Chris Steak House in Lahaina has a new executive chef named Wes Taaffe. This Saturday he will be showcasing his collection of creative dishes against the sublime backdrop of Nickel and Nickel wines for a five course dinner. It’s yet another opportunity to expand your foodie palate and waistband. Charles Fredy, advanced sommelier of Chambers and Chambers, will host the event and guide attendees through the characteristics of the vineyard sites and appellations which make each of the wines unique. Nickel and Nickel was established by the partners in Far Niente with a philosophy of creating 100 percent varietal single vineyard wines. Joan Stagnaro of Chambers and Chambers filled me on the basics: “Single vineyard or vineyard-designated wines are wines that come from only one vineyard on the lable. This is a fairly new practice in California, where blending has long been the standard. Incidentally this has long been practiced in France and is the basis of many French wine laws.” Highlights include watercress and speck with seared diver scallops and the 2008 Chardonnay, the steak rossini and 2007 Cab, a strawberry Neopolitan and 2006 Dolce. 900 Front St., Lahaina, 661-8815.

There are over 100 things you could be doing today on Maui.

Go to mauitime.com for complete weekly calendar listings, and find something to do today.

28 JUNE 23, 2011

first meet Garrett on an astroturf lawn; the posh sort that only divulges its costly counterfeit by being too perfect. The “grass” skirts Gannon’s restaurant in Wailea—the area used by the Maui Film Festival for celebrity arrivals and interviews—and it’s aglow under Fresnel lights and umbrella reflectors competing with the setting sun.

For the first time in my life, I’ve shown up early to something. So I spend my idle time toeing the turf and scribbling in my notebook about what the word “real” might mean.

But I do not get far in my musings because with the coming of Garrett Hedlund (of Country Strong and TRON: Legacy fame), began a Rising Star Award pre-ceremony press junket, and I’ve got a living to make.

A punctual man, Garrett shows up early, too. Handler-free, mind you.

This is very confusing to me and my fellow journos, who are accustomed to waiting for Hollywood elite (who, I believe, are responsible for the phrase “fashionably late”). As for handlers, I’m privy to their hovering and swatting of my silly questions like the ass of a kolohe toddler (meanwhile I’m guilty of caving unctuously).

Garrett may be on time, but he’s still quite fashionable. While his style is effortless, it seems part and parcel of his upcoming role in the screen adaptation of Jack Kerouac’s Beat bible On The Road, playing Dean Moriarty (i.e. Neal Cassady, driver of the bus called Further, who’s immortalized by Kerouac and Hunter S. Thompson, among others, and who—across generations— has infected countless with the wanderlust disease). Black sports coat over a black T-shirt. Slender black jeans. Leather boots I’d shank him for if we were in prison.

“I know we’re at a film festival,” I ask, “but have you read any good books lately?”

Yes, that’s my actual opening question. No, I don’t know why, either.

Maybe because I’m a bibliomaniac.

Maybe because of On The Road.

Maybe because I’d overhead his conversations with preceding reporters, and knew I was in store for uncommonly erudite candidness.

He tells me about a book called Little Princes (by Connor Grennan), and I ask if he’s finished it.

“Sorta,” he says coyly.

From here—because charming boys ruin me—my maundering tongue dribbles nonsense about favorite notebook brands (he hearts legal pads and Moleskines) and my captious desperation for yellow-out. (“You shouldn’t express this without copyright,” he nudges. I explain my name’s Anu, not NDA.) We talk about this because he tells me he’s been writing a lot, hoping these reflections are “so that one day I’ll be proud of the path.” He adds, “I spent seven days in London last week [with Cassady’s widow Carolyn] and wrote over 70 pages.”

“Seventy Moleskine pages or 70 regular pages?”

He cuffs my arm and says with a smile, “Oh, you! Seventy Moleskine pages.”

Great, now I can’t wash my jacket.

Garrett also tells me about how, until the age of 14, he grew up on a farm in Minnesota. “It was peacefulness in the years when I didn’t want peacefulness,” he says.

“You just broke my heart a little bit, just then,” I tell him. “I hope that’s written down in one of your Moleskines.”

He beams. “No, no,” he says. Sure, he’s a good actor, keen to be kind to reporters, but I think he might have broke a little, too. His face is all sunshine yet his countenance is sweet Cimmerian shade. “I’ve never written it before,” he says. “It was because of your question that I was able to answer that answer.”

Everything is quickly rhapsodic, if it wasn’t already. Ah, star power.

“But then also, when you get away, everything that pushed you away is everything that pulls you back,” he adds. “Once you get to the city, all you want to do is get back to that.”

“Have you been able to go back?”

“Oh, yeah. Plenty of times. I just haven’t been back lately.”

“Yeah, but do you feel like you were back?”

“You. Now you’re asking me these deep questions!”

“Deep questions? What deep questions?” I put on a hokey voice and do a little jig, “Where’d you grow up? What d’you like t’do? C’mon—” “Yeah, but you said (it) in a much deeper way.” A step closer. His gaze is direct and batting a thousand.

“There’s a lot of home I take with me. And a lot of home I take with me in certain roles... Then I always gotta get somewhere else. To try to revamp, or recreate, to get way further away from everything.”

“Revamping? Is that because it’s because it’s part of your personality?

The essence of being an actor?”

He smiles. I’ve had just seven minutes with Hedlund, but someone tells me I have time for only one more question.

I’m flustered. “Hey, I couldn’t find you on Twitter?”

Garrett says he’s not—nor cares to be—on Twitter or Facebook.

I’m sorta jealous, but it’s my turn to be coy. “But this is The Tweet Generation!” I giggle and scuff the astroturf, embarrassed. Poor John Clellon rolls in his grave.

Garrett Hedlund hugs me, my friendly heart flitters, then he’s golf carted away to accept his award before an audience of thousands. The sun’s almost gone, and I can’t help but think that tonight the stars will be out.

“Well, a travelin’ man’s affliction makes it hard to settle down / But I’m stuck here in the flatlands while my heart is homeward bound” -Patrick Simmons (Mauian!) / The Doobie Brothers, “Neal’s Fandango” ■ To read more Kula Kid with links and photos and stuff, and to leave comments, visit mauifeed.com/kulakid To share or save: mt.hy.pr/1501k

QUIZunderstood ANSWERS ...to questions on page 6

1. B CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) Forget about whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;appropriateâ&#x20AC;? for a minute. There are lines and then there are lines. In order to properly live youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re inevitably going to cross some of them. (If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t, your life will be dull and pointless.) Your job is to figure out which are important for you to preserve, and which should simply be discarded, and to hell with anyone who gives a shit about it. That, my dear, is this weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s task, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not even half as easy as it sounds. Some of those boundaries you want to cross are likely to be fiercely guardedâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;so be prepared to face some opposition. Stay strong, and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t back down.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) Your ego has gotten you into (perhaps embarrassing) trouble before, so when you take offense at something, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a part of you that gets a little worried, too. Is this just another case of overly prickly Leonine pride? Or do you have just cause to take affront? Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no way to tell except by enlisting a reasonably impartial, preferably non-melodramatic third party to clue you in (someone who loves drama is going to want you to go there no matter what). Find someone levelheaded and logical if you can, and then, regardless of how you feel, do what they sayâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;or youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll regret it, later.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) The question this week isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t about whether someone deserves your help, or if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re obligated to offer it, but actually much more simple: can you help? If you can, you should. Sometimes these things are much more complex, but right now forget all the ramifications and just focus on the matter at hand.

Someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in need. If you can give them a hand in some way, please do so. You may reconsider your decision or even withdraw your aid if you want, next week or next year, but right now, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a simple question with a yes or no answer.

3. A

ZUMBA FITNESS

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) Imagine that while standing on a balcony, you saw someone walking below, not paying attention, and thus in danger of falling into an open manhole. Hopefully, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d feel some obligation to call out to this total stranger to try to prevent this accident from happening. I bring up this implausible scenario because this week you may have the advantage of perspective in a certain situation, giving you more insight than someone else involved, someone who may be walking into similarly painful or disastrous circumstances unawares.

You might not want to get involved, but how will you feel when they suffer because you were too chicken or apathetic to holler a simple warning?

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) Improving your mate can be very hard to resist, but please try. You may have only the best intentions, but your reminders, advice, and counsel can all too easily cross over into nagging territoryâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no fun for anyone, including you. Of course, everyone has things they can and should work onâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;what you can improve upon is letting others have their faults and flaws and simply getting the hell over it. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not to mean you should let everything slide, of courseâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but until you can let most things slide, no oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be that happy, especially not you.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) Believe it or not, Pisces are generally luckier in love than most other signs. However, you do occasionally find yourself with an abundance of affection and no one to shower it upon. You could of course, desperately get out there and try to find someone whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s receptive to all this adoration and attention youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got on offer, but chances are thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to prove fruitless, annoying, or ultimately disappointing. Seek an alternative: get a pet or, better yetâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;lavish all that love upon yourself. This is easier said than doneâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s this weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s challenge.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just be real here: your expectations are probably too high. You may think you could do or be more if you were wearing anotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shoes, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probably not particularly realistic; when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re disappointed, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re best off keeping it to yourself. If someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s behavior or performance was truly sub-par, rest assured theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll hear about it from someone else. You get to be supportive, encouraging, and non-critical, whichâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s face itâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;is a whole lot more fun, anyway. Let your job be about being happy with what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got this week, instead of wanting more. Know what the best part is?

Try to be happy and content, and you will be.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) Being an untamed thing is fantastic in my book, but I value all the things that make life more pleasantly surprising and fascinating; your wild ways definitely qualify. However, not everyone shares my appreciation. Some people are only happy if you fit neatly into the box theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve built for you. It should be obvious to you that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking for someone thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not you, instead of assuming thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something wrong with you for feeling cramped, trapped, or, well, boxed in.

However, some Rams get tricked into feeling inadequate when they chafe at such restrictions. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to break free, finally, this week is an awesome time to do so.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) People live in denial and delusion all the time, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not always your duty to wake them up or clue them in. When it becomes your job is when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re the one enabling them to live in their persistent fantasy, and you just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to anymore. Bursting bubbles is no fun, but sometimes itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s necessary. This week, you may have to have one of those awful sit-down chats where you slap someone awake to the reality of the situation, a reality theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve tried very hard not to notice or acknowledge. However, if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be the one trying to escape your reality pretty soon.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) Just because you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s weird balloon fetish or fondness for artichoke liqueur doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean you should heap scorn upon it. Even though you think your taste is impeccable, you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t actually won the title Arbiter of Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cool and Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Not. Life is full of exciting stuff that simply wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t meet your standards, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s okay. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re happy with your life the way it is, and no oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s forcing you to expand your horizons beyond your comfort zone. All we askâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;this week and in generalâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;is that you allow others their mostly harmless pleasures and interests without judgment (even the silent kind).

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC.21) You already know that not every â&#x20AC;&#x153;problemâ&#x20AC;? needs solvingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; particularly not the ones that are pretty much unsolvable.

However, some people have yet to learn this valuable lesson, and feel compelled to go on about some mad crusade to right all the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wrongs and correct everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shortcomings.

Help these guys outâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;not by supporting their campaign, but by pointing out just how foolish and foolhardy it is. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pick your battlesâ&#x20AC;? is a concept that has yet to dawn on these poor souls; perhaps this week you could gently but firmly and persistently introduce it to one or two of them?

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) Abdicating responsibility for your own actions and choices wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work. Sometimes, as when people join AA or the like, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve exhausted other options, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the case here. Whether you admit it to yourself or not, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re only pretending youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re powerless. In fact youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re more than powerful enough to choose differentlyâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;if you want to. If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to (as I suspect), thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s another matter entirely. In that case, simple own and admit to your own obstinacy, instead of pretending youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a pawn of forces that are out of your control.
