SPEAKS SIGN LANGUAGE Just a quick note regarding Caeriel’s weekly piece in the Columns section: Kudos to MauiTime for running this guy’s stuff. Caeriel’s horoscope is really one of the best out there, relying more on common sense and straight talk than mystical nonsense. I especially like that astronomy is NOT a part of his columns, but rather more of a “deal with it and enjoy life” approach.

My compliments to MauiTime (which I’ve been checking out since I found Caeriel’s work); interesting paper/site with some well-written pieces (despite the fact that the focus is local, and I live in Virginia).

-Leo Solimine, via email

SUSTAINABLE LETTER Reading about the EPA assistance grant for Maui is encouraging (Mauisphere, Feb. 14, 2013). Seems like there’s enough fresh blood in Hawaii’s and Maui’s political offices to finally turn the corner from the backassward ways that have been its history.

The example given, however, about green streets and water flow seems like the tip of the coconut iceberg that desperately needs addressing. How about better, sane, fair water distribution of the East Maui Watershed?

Traffic and logical roadways: Does anyone on this island think about this?

How many needless gallons of gas are wasted and needless emissions into the air are made, in addition to wasted time and wear on cars because you always have to go 12 miles out of the way to get next door or sit in ridiculous bumper to bumper traffic in an adolescent town like Paia?

Food sustainability: What the hell is this island doing devoting the vast majority of its soil to sugar cane? Maui could be the breadbasket of the islands and the Pacific. Why are we stuck in the early 20th century? If Maui were a Third World nation, we’d have already had our own Sandinista uprising.

Energy: I hear encouraging rumors of a biodiesel/algae plant going in. About time!

Why has this taken so long?

Is the hypnotic paradise thing finally wearing off? Let’s hope so, for the keiki’s sake. Maybe Maui can develop a real middle class with sustainable jobs and sane development.

Yeah, a park where people can chill in Paia near the post office would be nice, too, instead of the same up and down the street parade through the same ridiculous traffic. Grow up, Paia. Christ.

DEBATING ENDANGERED CELEBS BILL I remain traumatized to this day after Cameron Diaz asked me last year to recommend a good brand of yogurt to her from the selection at Mana Foods. Will your senators consider companion legislation that protects commoners from celebrities (Coconut Wireless, Feb. 14, 2013)?

-Anthony Spinetta, via MauiTime.com It is startling that our so called “lawmakers” would spend their time so egregiously pandering to the narcissism and vanity of these “celebrities.” These grotesque poseurs should go back to England or Malibu or wherever the hell they’re from if they feel uncomfortable here. We can do without whatever minimal “trickle-down” their presence might provide. Thankfully the bill will never survive a test case. High speed car chase indeed!

-Phillip Swatek, via email Please reconsider this [bill]. Don’t make us the laughing stock... this is nonsense.

-Leilani Clark, via MauiTime.com

WISDOM IS WONDERFUL What a wonderful article (Mauisphere, Feb. 14, 2013). My wife was born on Midway island and we love albatross. She probably has seen Wisdom.

Talk of the Island

I win!

AND THE AWARD GOES TO...

DON’T WORRY: LIFE WILL STILL SUCK AFTER SEQUESTRATION So this is the week that the massive, draconian, horrible so-called “sequestration” federal spending cuts are supposed to kick in because our esteemed, honorable lawmakers in Washington couldn’t get together and agree on a budget, which will apparently lead to the end of life as we know it.

There’ve been lots of stories about these cuts (totaling $85 billion) over the past few months (actually, years) and on Feb. 25, the Associated Press itemized the cuts for Hawaii: $110,000 in unemployment funds, $130,000 in public health, $4.7 million for schools, $1.3 million in clean air/water, etc. But to be honest, and the doomsday theme throughout them makes me chuckle.

Don’t get me wrong: the cuts will hammer the poor, because budget cuts of any kind typically do that. But for most of the middle class, the cuts won’t be all that horrific, or even visible.

No, for the middle class in the U.S., even after the dreaded sequestration takes place, life will continue to be just as painfully mediocre as it was last year.

National Public Radio (NPR)

Overheard “I’m sick of seeing people’s knees and feet. The same goes for duck lips. Duck lips should only be done with irony.”

-Woman on Pi‘ilani Highway in Kihei, Feb. 23

hammered that point home (though they probably didn’t mean to) during a long Feb. 25 segment on the difficulty many families in this country are facing trying to feed themselves in a way that’s emotionally and nutritionally healthy.

“It’s hard enough to get dinner on the table while trying to help them with homework,” said Paige Pavlik of Raleigh, N.C. in the report. “Once we do everything, there is absolutely no time to go outside and take a walk or get any exercise. It’s simply come in, eat, sit down, do homework, go to bed.”

And then there’s Lori Bishop, a lab manager in Lexington, Kentucky. “Both she and her husband have stressful jobs, she says, and often feel exhausted at the end of the workday,” NPR reported. “‘But you gotta go right to work in the kitchen,’ Bishop says. ‘And while I would love to prepare a well-balanced meal each evening... it doesn’t happen.’”

Man, I thought all that whining would never end. The constant sniping, arguing and blaming went on for months, but now, finally, it’s at an end, leaving us regulartype people to get back to the business of actually running this country.

I’m speaking, of course, about the Academy Awards. Of course, I didn’t watch the actual ceremony Sunday night. I mean, why bother, when Twitter allows us to follow all the bitchy gossip and updates on who’s suddenly sprouting a beard in real time?

Seriously though, the thought of subjecting myself to watching some rich and famous people alternately praise and tease other rich and famous people makes me ill. Besides, they haven’t gotten that whole “Best Picture” thing right since 1942, when the Academy of Motion Pictures, Arts and Sciences saw fit to ignore obvious, timeless classics like Citizen Kane and The Maltese Falcon in favor of the long forgotten How Green Is My Valley.

And what was up with First Lady Michelle Obama handing out the Best Picture award to Ben Affleck’s Argo? “[These films] taught us that love can beat all odds,” Obama said, according to today’s Huffington Post. “They reminded us that we can overcome any obstacle if we dig deep enough and fight hard enough and find the courage within ourselves.”

Seriously? Well, she was right about the need to “dig deep”–a couple days ago Forbes dared to criticize the big movie studios’ biggest dirty little secret: that it sucks huge amounts of corporate welfare tax breaks.

“Even as the Hollywood glitterati ruminate about social responsibility and the need for the wealthy ‘one percent’ to pay their ‘fair share,’ Hollywood millionaires and moguls are bagging an estimated $1.51 billion in tax revenues annually through something called ‘film tax credits,’” Peter Schweizer of the Government Accountability Institute wrote in Forbes on Feb. 22. “Indeed, 40 states now have some form of subsidy or incentive that allow filmmakers to defray

income and/or sales taxes incurred during filming. Thirteen states even offer so-called ‘transferrable film tax credits’ that allow filmmakers to convert unused credits into cash—at taxpayer expense, of course.”

We in Hawaii know all about these credits: the Hawaii Film Office handed them out like leis to the creative geniuses who brought us Hawaii Five-O and Battleship.

Specifically, our state offers a very generous “15-20 percent” credit.

“This is a refundable tax credit based on a production company’s Hawaii expenditures while producing a qualified film, television, commercial, or digital media project,” states the Hawaii Film Office website. “The credit equals 15% of qualified production costs incurred on Oahu, and 20% on the neighbor islands (Big Island, Kauai, Lanai, Maui, Molokai).”

Such credits are often justified for the jobs they apparently support. “The motion picture and television industry is responsible for 3,848 direct jobs and $151.5 million in wages in Hawaii, including both production and distribution-related jobs,” states the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) website. “Nearly 2,200 of the jobs are production-related.”

Schweizer disputed such job creation numbers in his Forbes essay. What’s more, he quotes from a September 2012 LA Times story saying that the credits rob from other, more progressive ways

of providing income and assistance to those in need.

“The state is using money it then can’t use for other things, like education, transportation and healthcare, which also create jobs and economic growth,” Schweizer quote the Center for Budget Policy and Priorities vice president Nicholas Johnson as saying. “There is no accounting for what else the state could be doing with those dollars to provide economic growth.”

I didn’t think it possible, but that’s even more depressing than the Academy Awards.

Middle class

These weren’t poor people being quoted in the NPR story. They’re professionals, the middle class, who on paper shouldn’t have to worry about things like making sure they and their kids all get to eat healthy, fresh foods at the end of the day. They’re also Mainland families–given the fact that the wages of professionals in Hawaii trail far behind those of Mainland areas (the state was ranked in the bottom third of 115 major U.S. markets, according to an April 2012 Pacific Business News report)– things are going to be worse out here.■ anthony@mauitime.com + @apignataro To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1637n1

LOCAL PLUGS

BY AXEL BEERS

School used to be easy

It’s 10am on the Global Technology High School campus in Wailuku and sophomores Eli Sokolow and Anthony Romero are connecting metal girders to a motor. It’s part of their project to get an Erector Set model of a parachute drop working in time for First Friday Wailuku. In fact, all the students are working together to create two working moving models of this vintage circus set that includes the parachute drop and a merry-go-round.

“The parachute drop instructions are incredibly hard to understand because this is all from the ‘50s,” says Sokolow as he shows me the instruction manual, which is in superb condition for an antique. The students have additional printouts from additional Internet research they’ve done on the old toy construction sets.

Richard Dan, owner of Kama’aina Loan in Wailuku, has loaned the school the sets and will also be providing space in the display window at 46 N. Market for the students during the Wailuku First Friday town party. The students and their parents will talk about their school and the Erector Set project at the First Friday town party in April. Dan, a collector of vintage Erector Sets, also sells them at his stores.

“The Erector Sets that I loaned them are replicas from the Steeplechase Park in Coney Island,” he says. “I grew up in that area. They closed the park in the ‘60s, but the Parachute Jump ride is still there as a landmark.”

The high school is in its second semester of its inaugural year, and the seven students are thriving in their new surroundings. The group has strong ties to the Wailuku community. In fact, one of their ongoing school projects is keeping the neighboring municipal parking

lot clean and rubbish-free.

“I’m following the models of sustainable urban schools that partnership,” says Elaine Blasi, the school’s director. “We have Maui Academy of Performing Arts next door to partner with for drama and theatrical arts. On Lower Main, 808 Fitness partners with us for physical education. Students can order student lunch at Wailuku Coffee Company.

There are so many great local businesses here we are already involved with.”

NOAA DOCUMENTS CORAL DAMAGE ON KA‘ANAPALI COAST The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) completed a watershed management plan for West Maui on Feb. 13, outlining actions the government, private sector and community can do to lower pollutant

PHOTO COURTESY WIKIMEDIA COMMONS

STUDENTS BUILD VINTAGE ERECTOR SETS FOR SCHOOL

Mmm... coral

damage to corals. More than a quarter of these living corals along the Ka’anapali coast have been lost in the last 13 years, damaging a reef rich with social, cultural, economic and ecological value.

The plan focuses on the WahikuliHonokawai Watershed, and is the first of its kind to comprehensively address how runoff is affecting the reef’s health.

The plan identifies pesticide and fertilizer runoff, eroding roads and fields, injection wells, and untreated stormwater among top pollutant sources.

“A big part of the problem is what is flowing off the land into the sea,” said Kathy Chaston, the project manager with NOAA’s Coral Reef Conservation Program. “Our team looked ‘mauka’–inland–to identify major pollutant types and their sources, and then developed actions to reduce them.”

Hawaii’s reefs have been estimated to be worth as much as $364 million a year to the state’s economy, while being hotspots of marine biodiversity, fishing, recreation and tourism. Plus, they’re beautiful. In Hawaii and Polynesia especially, coral reefs are also of great cultural significance.

“Everyone has a role to play in reviving West Maui reefs,” Tova Callender, West Maui Watershed and Coastal Management coordinator, stressed. “Simple actions like conserving water, not pouring chemicals down the drain, and keeping debris and soil out of storm drains, can reduce the pollutants flowing into the sea and help our coral reefs.”

She added that “community grants will also soon be available to help grassroots efforts such as planting rain gardens.”

And there’s the rub. The plan offers and outlines voluntary action steps, and also conveniently gives a priority list with price tags included. Implementation costs vary, from a $3,000 fertilizer management plan to tens of millions of dollars to

increase production and reuse of treated water, though most projects are estimated around $50-300 thousand dollars. In the age of budget cuts, who pays?

The plan gives some suggestions, and maintains the practicality of implementation through partnership with the community. Several activities are planned for this year beginning with a workshop to design and install a rain garden at Wahikuli Wayside Park in March. Agricultural road improvements, gulch stabilization and post-fire rehabilitation planning, among other projects, will also begin this year with funding from Hawaii’s Division of Aquatic Resources and the state Department of Health.

“Our goal is to implement the priority projects within five years,” Chaston said.

MAUI AIDS FOUNDATION RAISES BIG BUCKS Maui AIDS Foundation raised $19,000 during this year’s Mardi Gras fundraising party in what the organization is calling a “roaring success.” This grassroots event was the foundation’s second annual Mardi Gras, developed and organized in response to “serious and ongoing funding challenges experienced by Maui AIDS Foundation in carrying out its mission to reduce the impact of HIV/AIDS across the three islands that make up Maui County.”

The celebration boasted over 300 guests and featured a show by Glamity and Maui Roller Girls, and dancing to Men In Black II and DJ Blast. Maui AIDS hopes to develop the Mardi Gras event into “the premier party celebration of the Pacific.

The organization plans to use funds from the event to fill in gaps that government contracts don’t cover, allowing Maui AIDS Foundation to provide “a full spectrum of services including prevention and education and free HIV and Hep-C testing for all of Maui County, as well as assistance with services including linkage to medical care, access to HIV medications, financial housing assistance, food, and emotional and support.”

Testing is the greatest need of the Maui community, a foundation official said in an interview. Individuals who begin a consistent medication regime lower transfer of HIV by 98 percent. There are currently 400 reported cases of HIV on Maui, and one in four sexually active youth between the ages 16-24 will have an STD by the time they turn 24.

FEBRUARY 28, 2013

Officials at England’s 12th-century St. Peter’s Church in Seaford, East Sussex, which is renowned for its eerie quiet, created a 30-minute CD recently of near-total silence, first as a small-scale fundraising project, but later for general sales (since word-of-mouth had attracted orders from as far away as Ghana).

Those who have heard it said they could make out only the occasional squeaking of footsteps on the wooden floor (and the very distant hum of passing cars).

Said one admiring parishioner, “People sometimes like to sit down and just have a bit of peace and quiet.”

THIS WEEK IN WOLF EDUCATION France has seen its wolf population gradually increase from near-extinction in the 1930s, but still classifies the predator as a “protected” species. However, sheep farmers increasingly complain that wolves’ attacks are reducing their herds. Therefore, in a recently proposed “National Wolf Plan,” the government boldly gave headline-writers around the world material for rejoicing: a national program to “educate” the wolves. Individual wolves known to have attacked sheep would be caught, marked and briefly detained, with the hope that they would learn their lesson from that trauma and from then on, pass up sheep and turn instead to rabbits, boar and deer. (Said one critic, “You might as well try to educate a shark.”)

GOVERNMENT IN ACTION The Treasury Department’s inspector general for tax administration revealed in January that twice as many fraudulent income tax refunds were paid to inmates in 2011 (173,000) as for the tax year 2010. However, the IRS claimed that the fraudulent returns it did manage to stop totaled $2.5 billion (almost half of which was disingenuously claimed by two inmates). Also, the Department of Health and Human Service’s inspector general revealed in January that Medicare was illegally billed for $120 million from 2009 to 2011 for services used by inmates and illegal immigrants–neither category of which is authorized to use Medicare.

RECURRING THEME As of January, New York City music teacher Aryeh Eller, 46, has almost reached a milestone in his battle with the Board of Education. Soon, he will have earned $1 million in salary and

benefits since the board removed him from the classroom 13 years ago and dispatched him to a light-duty “rubber room” after complaints of fondling and sexual harassment in the one year that he actually taught. An arbitrator had found insufficient evidence for his termination, but the board refuses to let him back in the classroom, fearing he is a danger to students.

SHOULDN’T FLY OFF THE SHELF Iceland’s menswear designer Sruli Recht’s autumn/winter 2013 collection, debuting in Paris in January, included a ring made from a four-inch slice of his own skin (removed during recent abdomen surgery, then salted and tanned to give it sturdiness). The ring (called “Forget Me Knot”) carries a price tag of $500,000–considering that the rest of the ring is 24k gold.

CRAPPY ART In Russia’s coldest region (the Siberian republic of Yakutia), artist Mikhail Bopposov created a massive, nearly 900-pound cobra statue (honoring the Chinese Year of the Snake)–made entirely of cow dung. Though at this time of the year the sculpture freezes, Bopposov plans to sell it when it melts, since fertilizer is a valuable commodity during the region’s short summers. Actually, this is Bopposov’s second foray into dung art, after last year’s winged serpent he created for the Chinese Year of the Dragon.

LEAST COMPETENT CRIMINALS A massive, fraudulent test-taking scheme spanning three Southern states came to a halt in 2009 after going undetected for 15 years. In February 2012, Clarence Mumford Sr., 59, pleaded guilty as the mastermind of the syndicate that charged schoolteachers thousands of dollars to have proxy test-takers sit for them in mandatory qualifications exams. The 2009 incident that brought the scheme to light was when one hired proxy (Memphis, Tenn., science teacher Shantell Shaw) decided to take both a morning test for one teacher and an afternoon test for another teacher, at the same location, while wearing the same pink baseball cap.■ chuck@mauitime.com To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1637n3

L TO R: REC HANCOCK, MATT FOBER AND ALEX RAMSEY

FROM HALEAKALA TO THE ROCKIES

MEET MAUI’S MODERN KUKINI WORDS BY JESSICA KIRKWOOD • PHOTOS BY SASHA PRINCE

S

ince Matt Fober began running at the age of 30, he’s lost more than 80 pounds. When Rec Hancock began in his early 20s, he turned to running to help overcome his alcohol addiction.

As a child, Alex Ramsey ran middle distance races around the grassy outdoor tracks of his elementary school, eventually earning himself a track scholarship. Although these men began their pursuit of running for different reasons, they agree that running is not only about split times and miles logged, but is one of the pinnacles of the human experience.

After meeting at different running events on Maui over the last couple years, Fober, Hancock and Ramsey have a contagious enthusiasm when it comes to distance running–especially on Maui turf. Together they’ve conquered the astounding 36-mile climb from sea level to the summit of Haleakala. They’ve charged through the towering Eucalyptus trees of Polipoli, hiked the relentless knee-knocking hills of Makawao

10 FEBRUARY 28, 2013

Forest Reserve and sped across Hana Highway’s undulating twists and turns. And come August, they will travel to the heart of the Colorado Rockies to compete in one of the most prestigious ultra-running events on the planet: the Leadville 100.

An “ultra” marathon is any distance above the classic 26.2-mile marathon, and the legendary “Race Across the Sky” is a grueling 100-mile run through extreme and treacherous terrain that starts and finishes at the highest incorporated city in America. It’s basically the Burning Man of ultra-running: expansive, exhausting, desolate, exhilarating and, eventually, a bit euphoric. Elevations reach 12,600 feet and never dip below 9,200 feet; there’s a total gain of 15,000 vertical feet. To put that into perspective, it’s like running up and down Haleakala from Paia, then nearly right back up again, but rarely dipping below the cool, thin-aired altitude of the summit.

“Leadville just has this history and mystique that I think you look for in your first

100,” says Fober, who has one 50-mile race under his belt. “It has these beautiful surroundings, and all at elevation. This is a big personal dream. It’s a bit overwhelming, but extremely compelling.”

Hancock agrees–especially about the overwhelming part.

“Logically it makes no sense,” says Hancock, who was inspired to enter after his recent 8800-foot ascent of Mount Lemmon in Arizona this December. “The longest race I’ve done is a marathon. But in my heart it feels perfect. When I came home I saw that Matt and Alex had signed up. So I just did it. I’m so looking forward to being out on a 100-mile quest with these two guys.”

To prepare both mentally and physically for Leadville, they’re planning many more runs through the bright red cinder cones, clouded landscapes and past the glistening silverswords atop Haleakala.

“Haleakala is special,” says Fober. “There’s no way around it. Whether you’re spiritual or not, when you stand up on Haleakala, and

you’ve gotten there mostly by foot–you feel closer to God. Whatever that means to you.”

Some runs begin and end under the stars.

Some are sunny and warm, while others welcome howling winds and frosty breath.

Some days the miles pass without much thought and with great ease, while others bring pain and discomfort demanding their focus. There are days when they learn the hard way how much salt, sugar and water to take in, while on others, everything falls perfectly into place. They’ve dealt with swollen feet, blisters, blackened toenails, sore backs and even hallucinations. But that’s all a part of the allure. Distance running puts them in a place that goes beyond the physical to a place that can’t be explained.

“At first running was about losing weight, competing, and seeing how much I could improve my times,” says Fober, who was first inspired to run by his friend Dylan, and by pushing his son Jonah in his stroller. “You know, all the typical stuff. But with time it changed drastically. Now it’s the everyday stuff

that I really enjoy: my early morning runs to work, seeing the sun rise, having that time to myself to really just think things through. It’s a real soul-cleansing experience.”

In 1983, Ken Chlouber, founder of the Leadville 100, first had the idea to host an ultra-marathon to help put the oncebooming mining town back on the map.

He was apparently told by a local hospital administrator that such a race would most likely lead to someone’s death. “Well, then we will be famous, won’t we?” Chlouber is said to have responded.

Towards the end of the race, it’s said that most Leadville competitors aren’t really running so much as they are shuffling or relentlessly stumbling; anything that resembles forward motion. Last year just 358 of the 795 runners who began the race reached the finish line under the 30-hour cut-off. The rest were broken by dehydration, malnourishment, nausea, delirium, hypothermia, altitude sickness, rolled ankles, twisted knees and muscles turned to stone.

There’s no doubt that ultra-running is a bit kooky and extreme, but even in ancient Hawaii ultra-running roots go deep. The term kukini once defined a select class of men who were swift distance runners. Often of royal descent, they were employed as spies to carry messages between neighboring ali’i, to summon warriors to battle and to fetch items from great distances. They logged long training miles and ate a diet of lean meats, fish and fresh vegetables such as kalo, sweet potato and breadfruit. Kukini also competed in foot races at the annual New Year’s festival, the Makahiki, where spectators would bet on their favorite runner.

Legend has it that the great runner Kalamea could run around Maui in one day, Pakui could circle Oahu six times a day, and Kamaa-ka-mikioi and Kama-aka-ulu-ohia could run around the island of Kauai 10 times a day. The story of Makoa, who resided on the Big Island, ran a distance of over 80 miles to fetch ‘ama’ama, or pond mullet, for King Kamehameha. Amazingly, he returned before sunset, with the fish still quivering inside a bundle of ti leaves. To this day, Hawaiians say that a runner who shows great speed over a long distance is “He poki’i no Makoa”–Makoa’s younger brother.

“It wasn’t until I found running that I really started enjoying all the blessings Maui has to offer,” says Fober. “There are so many amazing, untouched trails here.”

When they’re not passing their time following in the footsteps of ancient kukini, they all have unique alter-egos. During working hours, Ramsey busses tables at Flatbread in Paia and landscapes in Haiku; Fober is a chef at Nick’s Fishmarket in Kihei, while Hancock works at Terminix as a licensed pest and termite inspector. But on their offhours, running has become something of a necessity.

“I live to run,” says Hancock. “It’s become an embedded part of my being. I quit drinking three years ago. It [running] wasn’t the key fixture in quitting, but it was very helpful. It continually helps me to connect to something greater.”

It was a similar story with Fober. “Running has been key to overcoming many negatives in life,” he says.

“I struggled with substance abuse, unhealthy eating and an unhealthy prioritization of work over family life. Running really helps me put things in proper order. Plus I lost 80 pounds in the process! When I’m doing positive healthy things for myself, I became a better husband, father, chef and friend.”

Both Fober and Hancock have tall, solid statures, broad shoulders and tattooed arms–physiques more akin to football players than they do distance runners. But looks can be deceiving.

“After my first marathon, my body was so torn up I could barely run for 10 minutes,” says Fober. “I had to completely start over. I began rebuilding my stride, learning about mechanics and about nutrition. I wasn’t gonna do it blindly anymore.”

And he hasn’t. In fact, he’s become such an efficient runner that this past January, after running more than 30 miles the day prior, he and Ramsey ran the Maui Ocean Front Marathon side by side–barefoot. With strides short and economical, the duo cast smiles and threw high fives to nearly every spectator and aid station volunteer on the

course. By their playful demeanor you’d hardly believe they were running at all.

“Alex is one of the most positive people I’ve ever met,” says Fober. “He has this incurable optimism. You can’t be around the guy and not smile.”

Alex Ramsey has a small, compact frame, tanned skin and a grin that is wildly contagious. He’s the free-spirited, bare-footed guru of the group. He says going shoeless has taught him patience–take it slow and focus on proper technique. It has also given him strong calves, tough soles and helped him to better connect with his environment. “My awareness is more heightened and I become my surroundings,” he says. “I have better conversations with the Earth. I get to know the pavement, the woodsy trail, the scree, the pebble, the sand.”

But even to an upbeat shoeless runner, not all paths are inviting to the unshod foot. On long runs, he often keeps a pair of lightweight Luna sandals perched between his lower back and running shorts, just in case the terrain gets too tough. He even has a scar on his lower back from chaffing to show for it.

The ancient kukini Makoa is said to have practiced proper running technique: to walk on his toes without touching the heel of his foot to the ground in order to increase his leg strength and speed.

It’s safe to assume that Makoa wasn’t wearing rubber-soled sneakers. Maybe Ramsey is on to something?

These men are minimalists in both their running philosophy and appearance; they don’t really follow the model of modern racers. Instead of using structured training schedules, they go by what feels best from day to day.

“I just put in the miles and let my body do the talking,” says Hancock.

And rather than getting decked out in the most contemporary racing attire, like a

hydration pack, Coolmax t-shirt, compression socks and a heart rate monitor, these men keep it simple. Ramsey, for example, sometimes prefers to log his miles in cut off jean shorts and nothing else.

“I think Alex has the best insights to his body of any runner I know,” says Fober.

“I believe he’ll fare well at this distance because he’s so efficient and talented and knows how to adjust to changing environments. Rec is just gonna charge this thing. He’s got one of the biggest hearts out there. And in a 100, that can carry you when your legs don’t want to.”

And no one completes a 100-miler without heart. Apparently, a runner can be feeling really terrible at mile 30 and again at 70, but then just five miles later feel great. That’s what’s special about running such an irrationally long distance; going through those peaks and valleys, both literally and figuratively, and persevering through them.

But just as you can’t complete a 100-miler without heart, you can’t complete it without preparation and humility, either. Consider Anton Krupnicka, Leadville’s 2006 and 2007’s overall winner. In 2009 and 2010, he was forced to abandon the race. He admitted to not only miscalculating his nutrition but possessing a dangerous undercurrent of pride: “You can never lose respect for the distance.”

The distance may be daunting, but the experience will be engaging and invaluable.

When they toe the start of Leadville at 4am on Aug. 17 and dash into the darkness, the sun will eventually rise and illuminate nearly the entire flank of snow-topped mountains they will traverse. Those mountains contain deep forests, turquoise lakes, mountainside vistas, eerie ghost towns and long, hot, dusty roads. But while they’re treading those Rocky Mountains trails, they hope to hold Haleakala’s wisdom in their hearts.

Other than receiving Leadville’s famous finisher’s belt buckle and finishing in less than 25 hours, Ramsey is most eloquent when expressing his goals for Leadville.

“Being mindful of the setting sun, the smell of pine, the smiles of supporters and seeing the people who have gathered together for this time, really seeing them,” he says. “That’s my goal.” ■ editor@mauitime.com To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1637L

Manoli’s Maui This isn’t your typical Italian restaurant

here’s a new pizza restaurant in Wailea, located at 100 Wailea Ike Drive. If you think that address sounds familiar, it’s because that spot used to be Matteo’s Pizza.

They operated there for about six years before closing last April. But if you think Manoli’s is just picking up where Matteo’s left off, you’re wrong.

Owner and operator Aaron Placourakis has the makings of a restaurant empire on Maui with Sarento’s, Son’z and Nick’s Fishmarket, as well as other restaurants on Oahu as well. Manoli’s is his venture into casual dining, and his approach is entirely gourmand. Still, it’s “designed with family

The brand new bar at Manoli's

dining in mind,” he says.

Placourakis named the restaurant after his father (and son), both named Manoli. His dad was raised on Crete and inspired much of the artisan menu featured at this new Wailea spot.

“Because we’re committed to this neighborhood, we wanted to ensure the same quality and value at Manoli’s as we have at Nick’s Fishmarket and Sarento’s on the Beach,” says Placourakis. “Manoli’s fills a niche in the casual dining market.

All my experience in the industry comes to mind when developing a new concept.

Being part of the Wailea community all these years, I feel I understand the needs of visitors and locals alike.”

To show their commitment to the family and community, Manoli’s Maui ran a social media campaign where they awarded the winner free pizza for a year.

Given that the kids menu is all-you-caneat cheese pizza or spaghetti with a drink

made Pomodoro, which is tangy and sweet–just right with the Margherita and the Mediterranean I ordered with the organic wheat crust.

Then there’s the garlic bread. Though it’s not gluten-free (sorry celeriacs), it melts in your mouth. It has great flavor and is the perfect bed for the cheese topping they melt over it.

and dessert up to age seven, all priced at your kid’s age plus 99 cents, family dining here is a no-brainer.

“I heard about the contest on Manoli’s Facebook page,” says Dany White, owner of Maui Memories in Wailea.

“When I entered I thought that would be really cool to win the contest since I'm a single mom of three and I work a lot of hours at my new store. A few times a week I don’t get home till 9 pm.

Free pizza for a year would be awesome.

My youngest daughter’s favorite is the cheese pizza, my middle one loves the pepperoni and my son and I love the all-meat pizza. I also love their salads.

Sometimes we do take-out, but whenever possible we dine in. We just were there last night. It's such a beautiful setting and the service is excellent.”

One of the first moves Placourakis made was to knock out some walls and build a bar that overlooks the gardens and ponds. Now Manoli’s is host to an early bird (3-6pm) and late night (9-12am) happy hour where Mai Tais, wells and domestic brews start at $3. Happy hour also has a nice pupu menu; pizza by the slice is $2 and so is the meatball slider, with a range of other items priced $4-7.

The restaurant is open-air, most of the seating faces out to the ocean and the sunset view is spectacular. But it took me a few visits to notice all that because I was all about the food.

The first thing that struck me on the menu was that their handmade artisan crust comes two ways: gluten-free and organic wheat. I couldn’t resist putting them to the test on a gluten-free crust–not because I have diet restrictions but because it’s so hard to get the texture right. Their gluten-free dough does the trick, and is light and chewy at the edge but still supports the cheese in the middle. The sauce is their organic house-

Dany White and family

“Our Corporate Chef, Geno Sarmiento, adapted the classic French recipe, brioche, into his own,” says Placourakis.

“Of course, it’s homemade and on the lighter side which highlights the different flavors. It’s also proofed twice, which allows more air into the dough.”

The shrimp Scampi pupu is also a surprise. Their Scampi has a perfect buttery wine sauce with shrimp that douses crostini. They also have pastas, gluten-free pastas and organic salads. Manoli’s also has a great wine list and they carry Maui Brewing Co. beer on tap.

“The Fantinel Sparkling Brut Rose from Italy compliments food very well– especially the Scampi,” says Placourakis.

“The Frescibaldi ‘Remote’ Super Tuscan from Tuscany goes hand in hand with Manoli’s Fave Pizza. Both wines are offered by the glass and bottle.”

Oh, and save some space for their sweets: the gluten-free banana cream pie is to die for and their Tiramisu is house-made. ■ jen@mauitime.com + @jenrusso For more foodie news, visit MauiTime’s food blog at: mauidish.com To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1637d1

Lanai Jazz Festival Plus: We talk story with Jazz great Eric Marienthal

BY JEN RUSSO

T

his weekend, globetrotting, Grammy-winning Jazz musicians from New Orleans, Maui, Oahu, the Big Island and Los Angeles will come together for the third annual Lanai Jazz Festival. As in years past, organizer Ken Martinez Burgmaier, along with Jazz Alley TV and HawaiionTV.com, are bringing a weekend of free Jazz performances to the Pineapple Island.

Friday offers a sneak peek at what’s to come with the Jazz Alley TV Trio: Gene Argel, Paul Marchetti and Doug White, along with a special performance from the Jazz Fest Musicians, all in the Lodge at Koele.

Then on Saturday, the Jazz starts early in Lanai City when Robbie Ray Lopaka and his Cocoland Jazz Guitar appear at Coffee Works at 9am. Then at 11am, Damon Parillo and his Jazz guitar will appear at Cafe 565. The festival heats up at 4pm beside Koele’s cozy fireplaces. The lineup includes Delfeayo Marsalis, Eric Marienthal, Paula Fuga, Damon Parillo, Ron Hetteen, Robbie Ray Lopaka, Dave Graber, Calvin Hoe and the Jazz Alley TV Trio in the Great Hall.

It’s the perfect opportunity to check the latest changes in the Four Seasons resorts on Lanai, subtle but gorgeous since Larry Ellison bought the island.

“Complete with a new look and new guest experiences, Four Seasons Resorts Lanai welcomed the new year with style, distinction and excitement,” says Alice Bouman, Resort Manager at Four Season Lanai.

“On the eve of 2013, Manele Bay and The Lodge at Koele completed several property enhancements, refining the overall design aesthetic of the resorts to capture a distinct sense of place synonymous with Hawaii.

Highlights include new furniture in the Great Hall, hammocks now adorn the gardens, additional TV’s in the Trophy Room to catch your favorite sports games, enhanced landscaping and a new 100 percent sustainable and local menu in the Dining Room.”

On Sunday, the Jazz party picks up at 10am at No Ka Oi Grindz with Lopaka and a luxurious Jazz piano breakfast at the Lodge. Chef Kevin Erving has a spectacular menu in store with dishes like garlic and thyme roasted chicken Roulaude, creamy corn and Parmesan polenta, sugar snap peas, mint, chicken jus or pan seared Mahi, Molakai sweet potato hash, ginger and pineapple emulsion and cilantro pesto.

Start Sunday with the chef’s smoked salmon frittata, cream fraiche and caviar.

I recently had a chance to catch up with Marienthal, a Grammy-winning saxophone master who will be playing at the festival.

He’s has traveled the world but this will be his first time on Lanai.

MAUITIME: From a young age, you’ve always known music was your lane. What is something else you would have devoted your life to aside from music?

ERIC MARIENTHAL: I’m a family man and I have been happily married to my wife Lee Ann for the past 30 years and she gets to come with me to Lanai. I get to bring her I should say, on this trip which we are both very excited about. So you know I’m definitely the most excited about the fact that we have raised two wonderful kids, both very successful. They are also quite accomplished musicians–Katie graduated from USC with a musical theater

tiful here. I have gotta say this is a hard place to beat.

MT: What would you say to the generation now pursuing music?

EM: Become as diverse as you possibly can. The music business is what you make of it like any other business. and the more diverse you can be with every different base that you can cover you create another form of potential opportunity to work. For instance, if you are a good sight reader you

part of playing Jazz. And not really just Jazz– all kinds of music. But in improvisational music like Jazz it’s vitally important that you listen to each other and communicate with each other as you’re playing. Because improvising with a group is very much like a conversation and what one person says has everything to do with what someone else will say. In musical terms, what somebody plays will affect what somebody else plays, or how they react. With Corea and other great musicians I have learned in different ways how important that communication connection is and when it’s there it makes the music so much better.

MT: What was your favorite performance?

EM: I have so many. There was one particular tour with the Chick Corea band where we traveled for three months. In three months we were in 24 different countries and played 87 different cities in only 90 days.

I’m so proud that I survived that tour. It was exciting that we played for so many different people and we did it in a very concentrated way over those three months. I remember playing every night. We had four nights off in three months. When you play that much with musicians of that quality the music comes to such a high level things happen that you would have never though could happen.

So being in a situation where our band was playing so incredibly well is rare to experience in your life.

MT: What is your advice for an aspiring artist here in Hawaii?

EM: Play as much as you possibly can.

Music is about creating and creating all that you can. People love music, good music, and sometimes it doesn’t matter what type of music as long as you are playing it well. So as long as you’re presenting yourself in front of an audience just make sure you’re playing your best possible. People are drawn to good music. Try to create new places to play, too. If your music is good, people will come listen for sure.

MT: How can we keep Jazz alive?

EM: By always moving forward. That is why fusion is such a big part of Jazz. Fusing different styles of music together. One of the unique things with Jazz music is it encompasses so many different styles. That is how it has evolved to this point. So continuing the evolutionary process is what will keep this music going.

could have a good career as a studio musician, teacher, improvisor or composer or arranger. All of these different things can lead to different ways of creating a better career for yourself.

MT: You’ve played with Al Hurt, Chick Corea, Jeff Lorber and Russell Ferrante. What did you take away from these collaborations?

EM: When I play with Chick Corea, I just learn so much about communication. I think I learned that was the most important

degree and my son Robert is quite a good singer songwriter and guitar player.

MT: Your Jazz career has taken you around the world. What’s your favorite place so far?

EM: I’m actually in Rome Italy right now. We are playing here tonight and I have probably been to easily 70 different countries in my life, and I can’t imagine a better place than right where I am this very moment. A hundred yards away from the Spanish Steps as we speak and it’s so beau-

Needs More Magic Beans ‘Jack The Giant Slayer’ is a big movie but falls at the end

BY BARRY WURST II

Jack The Giant Slayer ★★★★★

Rated PG-13 / 114 Min.

N

icholas Hoult stars as Jack, a young lad who lives in a kingdom with a troubled ruler (played by Ian McShane). A shift in royal power takes place when a devious politician (Stanley Tucci) uses a supernatural crown to obtain power. But Jack’s random encounter with a priest on the run results in his receiving a handful of magic beans, which create a beanstalk that stretches far into the sky and reveal a land overrun with giants.

As directed by Bryan Singer, who made the first two X-Men movies, Superman Returns and The Usual Suspects, the film is every bit as spectacular as you’d expect. It was originally scheduled to open last summer and no wonder, as it’s the kind of wall-towall cinematic spectacle you’d find in June.

The special effects here are so good and the worlds they shape seem so real that I wanted to like the movie more than I did. While the

visuals are often spellbinding, the human cast barely registers. Same for the plot.

When the cast is seen climbing those thick green vines that stretch for miles into the sky, it really does look like they’re in the midst of the clouds. Likewise, when they arrive at a land in the sky, with a massive castle for giants and a cliff that threatens to plunge everyone over, I was amazed at how vivid everything seemed. The giants themselves are quite disgusting and their close-ups display some impressively realistic detail.

From the first frame on, we’re bombarded with flashy visual effects that entertain but are in service of an over-plotted screenplay with vaguely fashioned characters. Hoult is the star but once the giants show up, he seems to fade into the background while busy f/x take over. His absentee turn isn’t his fault, as the camera loves him and he’s a natural born movie star, but his recent turn as a zombie turned freedom fighter in Warm Bodies is a better showcase of his versatility.

The same goes for McShane, Ewan McGregor and Stanley Tucci: like John Malkovich in Eragon or Jeremy Irons in Dungeons and Dragons, they’re trying to give credibility to silly roles in a lavish fantasy

Look out! He’s got a pin!

that doesn’t deserve their talents. As an audience, we register their appearances but aren’t buying their dialogue about a crown made of a melted dragon heart.

Like similar, though far better 1980s fantasies like Willow and Dragonslayer, the film is violent, though the gore is kept just out of camera view to make this a good pick for kids eight years and older. Eleanor Tomlinson is a perfect, attractive match for Hoult, Bill Nighy gives a CGI’d performance as the head giant and, as Nighy’s other head, is none other than John Kassir, the voice of the Crypt Keeper on HBO’s Tales from the Crypt. Even Warwick Davis, the star of Willow, turns up in a cameo appearance, but you wish all these cool actors were in a better movie.

Singer isn’t capable of making a bad

film and his underrated thrillers Apt Pupil and Valkyrie demonstrate his ability to coax great work from actors as well as his production team. Yet, even at two hours, this feels overextended, complete with a flat final scene that intends to jump start a sequel but nly squashes the genuine sweetness of the scene that came before it.

With its kid friendly appeal, awesome sights and a few good set-pieces, it’s better than my two-star rating would indicate, but just barely. It could have been a classic but falls short when the focus isn’t on the effects. This is what Pirates of the Caribbean would have been like without Johnny Depp. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1637f

Horoscope

Sign Language

BY CAERIEL CRESTIN PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) The travelogue of your week: “The first five days we swerved around twisting, narrow mountain roads. We were constantly rewarded with stunning scenic views and the satisfaction of navigating challenging terrain with ease, but we didn’t get very far, as the crow flies.

Just as we emerged from the foothills at week’s end, the stereo died, but we’d just hit the highway, which was straight and flat and pierced the distant horizon.

It was our chance to really make some headway, so we said, ‘Screw having a stereo,’ rolled down the windows, gunned the engine, and sang.”

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) You’d love to ride into your high school reunion on a magnificent albino elephant, preceded by beautiful people strewing rose petals in your path and followed by a caravan of harem beauties, admirers, reflected glory-cravers, and general hangers-on. Once there, according to your long-embellished fantasies, you’d distribute bejeweled keepsakes and copies of your bestselling biography to your stunned ex-classmates.

Your backup plans (Nobel, Oscar, or marriage to foreign royalty) are almost as unlikely. It’s good to have grandiose dreams. But the next few weeks are about recognizing the difference between flights of fancy and those ambitions (which are significantly impressive in and of themselves) you can actually achieve.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) I hope you’ve been taking a yoga class or at least doing some morning stretching, because you’re in grave need of some resilient flexibility this week. Since you’ve so effectively padded your booty, protecting yourself from outside butt-booting, the only person left to give you a helpful kick in the ass is you. You’re on the verge of freeing yourself from slavery of one kind or another, and no one else can help. Since your liberation depends on your ability to keep moving, I recommend repeatedly kicking your own ass into gear from now until the moment you’re finally free.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) People joke about your split personality, but secretly they’re impressed. Unlike some other duality-embracing signs, your inner diversity doesn’t slow you down. You’re capable of encompassing contradiction without getting bogged down grappling with indecision. However, despite your phenomenal talent for swift and shrewd choices, I’m begging you to slow down. Impulsively choosing a path would be as bad as over-thinking it (another mistake to avoid). Some of your possible roads lead to unfinished bridges or thick, impassable barriers. Take a minute or three to really consider which way is best; despite the delay, it’s bound to be quicker than having to retrace your steps.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) Someone dissected your teddy bear and revealed that deep within its fuzzy softness was a sparkling chunk of cold, unyielding diamond. Ouch; so your anthropomorphized comfort toy is much more hardhearted than you ever imagined. Naturally, being the pragmatist you are, it wouldn’t take you long to visit a jeweler and get an appraisal to see how much it’s worth. How does that relate to this week’s truth? Looking inside a treasure from childhood—real or in memory form—may alter your sentimental perception of it forever, but could also be of incalculable value to your present moment.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) Some scientists believe that early Man’s partnership with wolves may have given our species the edge over the brawnier Neanderthals. It certainly makes sense; by all accounts early homo sapiens were smaller and frailer than homo neanderthalensis, and possibly not as intelligent in certain ways. Now that your survival is as tenuous as that of our ancient ancestors, consider duplicating their strategy to deal with your adversary, who’s bigger, stronger or faster than you: They teamed up with packs of efficient killers in a mutually beneficial arrangement that has survived millennia. This week, pick your allies as well as they did, and you’ll kick ass too.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) Your ruling planet, Mercury, also presides over your magnetically attractive cousins, the Geminis. That fastmoving planet confers on them a manic changeability and flightiness, while you’re usually gifted with an excess of energy that you divert into more diverse pursuits than seems humanly possible. Unfortunately, that hyperproductivity is about to shift over into hyperactivity. While the Gems will be blessed with a focus and direction that they usually lack, you could end up so busy bouncing between all those activities that completing a single one will be almost impossible. It’s priority-setting time. Accept the fact that you’ll only be able to actually finish a fraction of your usual workload. Now decide which handful stays on your To-do list and which truckload gets lost.

QUIZunderstood ANSWERS ...to questions from page 4

1: D–Taking over a portion of Wailea Beach.

2: B–$1.5 million.

3: C–$12 million for the addition of restaurant/retail space to Kapalua Airport.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) Focused attention on the path and not the destination is exactly where it’s at for you Libras this week. That’s not always true: When tightrope-walking, for instance, it’s best to keep your eyes on where you’re headed; looking down can only lead to disaster. But when navigating through a murky bog, rife with snakes, gators, and pits of stinking sludge, paying attention to where you put your feet is vital. Go ahead and keep your endpoint in sight and be sure to head in that general direction; however, make sure each step along the way is as stable and solid as you can find.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) Public opinion regarding your sign is flying so high, it’d be hard to find a jury to convict you of the crimes your tribemates are traditionally accused of. In the past year, your astrological brethren have remade the Scorpio image more successfully than any high-paid PR firm ever could. You’ve shaken past impressions that you’re petty, vicious, and poisonous. Now, you’re a thoughtful, sensitive, and powerful warrior with the courage to stand by your convictions. Of course, the public is fickle. This week, you have the opportunity to perform another locally great deed, and solidify your upstanding new image. Or not—if you’re feeling a bit trapped, you could skip the good deed, wait for opinion to turn, then whip out your sting.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) Dislike can be objective, but more often it stems from something I call The Mirror Effect: your own worst facets reflected in someone else. It’s painful to be around someone who constantly reminds you of your shortcomings. Surmounting this knee-jerk reaction requires a conscious act of will, along with a widened margin of self-acceptance. You have some amazing incentive to overcome your aversion to reflections of your own worst traits, since those you hate the most can be your best allies this week—and, depending on how well you transcend your judgment, possibly for a long time to come.

Mahalo for your support!

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) Mourning an idea (especially a treasured illusion) can be subtly similar to grieving for a beloved friend. When forced to let go of a mental crutch, you could experience stages of lamentation that resemble denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and, finally, acceptance. Does acknowledging the reality of that process help you get through it? Maybe not, but knowing what to expect can at least keep you from picking up the discarded crutch and bringing it back to life to help you avoid the suffering caused by its necessary loss. Limp onwards, baby. It’s only for a little while: Once you accept your life sans crutch, you’ll be able to fly.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) Tradition sucks. Thanks for being courageous or desperate enough to break free of limiting ideas about “how things are done.” You know better. Last time, you followed all the rules and the situation still blew up in your face. You’re justifiably bored with that illusion of predictability. It may be much scarier being a pioneer into emotional frontier land, but that’s all that’s left. Now it’s just you and the truth of how it’s been all along: You can never know what to expect, despite what you’re taught or told. Don’t be afraid, venturing into that unknowable landscape. Be thrilled.
