Coconut Wireless ANDAZ LITTLE FIRE ANTS INFESTATION STORY SHOWS BANKRUPTCY OF LOCAL NEWS MEDIA

The Andaz Maui Resort

reports on how officials at the Andaz Maui Resort admitted that they were the mysterious “Wailea hotel” that discovered a little fire ant infestation back in May. It’s a major public health story with implications for the entire island.

But The Maui News and Maui Now stories simply informed readers that the Andaz released a statement saying they had discovered little fire ants back in May, and had informed state and county officials, which were in the process of containing and eradicating the ants. Neither news organization bothered to explain to their readers why the hotel–which recently opened and could really use better publicity than this–was going public with such a revelation.

Of course, there’s no mystery for MauiTime readers. I was able to get the name of the hotel from a county source with knowledge of the infestation.

The story first broke on Wednesday, June 18. Back in May, state and local agricul-

the hotel. Senior Account Executive Maggie Holmes sent me the following email: “Thank you for reaching out to us about this matter,” she wrote. “I am speaking with the resort and will be in touch very soon.”

That was 9:30 or so on the morning of

Why. There are six questions every cub reporter gets taught before he or she ventures out on a story: Who?, What?, When?, Where?, Why? and How? Of those, perhaps the most important–and the one that typically gets the least play in news stories–is Why. The Maui News and Maui Now rarely run stories that explain why events take place. Perhaps they’re so constrained by budget pressures that they can’t take the time to fully report a story before hitting the “Publish” button. Or perhaps they’re just lazy. Or maybe these organizations just think that events happen for the same reason that coconuts fall out of a tree–they just do.

I wondered about all this over the weekend as I read both news organizations’

ture officials had found an “infestation” of dreaded little fire ants at an unnamed Wailea hotel. KITV, KHON, the Honolulu Star-Advertiser, Maui Now and The Maui News all ran stories on the infestation– none of which named the hotel. But the stories did all include the same quote: “The area of infestation was caught early and crews are extremely confident that it can be eradicated,” said Hawaii Board of Agriculture Chairman Scott Enright.

“We cannot express enough how important it is to find any infestation before it becomes widely established.”

See, all the stories were based on the same news release sent out by the state Department of Agriculture, which did not include the name of the hotel. Only The Maui News even asked an official for the name, but was rebuffed by a county official and ultimately printed no name.

After I found out the ants were at the Andaz, I contacted Murphy O’Brien Public Relations–which handles the media for

Little fire ants

June 20. When I called Holmes at 2:30pm, she said the following: “We’re working with MISC,” she said.

“We have a statement drafted, but we’re just getting their approval.”

Holmes finally sent out the statement at 3:30pm: “Little fire ants were found at the Andaz Maui at Wailea Resort in May 2014,” the satement read. “Upon discovery, the Andaz Maui at Wailea Resort acted immediately to eradicate the ants from the property, working in close cooperation with the Hawaii Department of Agriculture (HDOA) and Maui Invasive Species Committee (MISC). The finding was extremely small and confined to a landscaped area of the property–less than 400 square feet on a 15-acre property.

“There is no known threat to the public or hotel guests,” the statement continued.

“The Andaz Maui at Wailea Resort takes the welfare and safety of its guests very seriously and is committed to long-term monitoring and treatment as necessary.”

The statement then quoted Teya Penniman, who manages the Maui Invasive Species Committee: “Everyone we worked with at Andaz Maui, from the landscapers to management staff, was very cooperative,” she said. “They want to do the right thing–get rid of the ants.”

So why all the secrecy about the location of the fire ant infestation–which seems

Overheard “You grow up on Maui, you learn to pee wherever you can.”

- Guy in Wailuku Town, June 20

to be under control and contained to a 400-square foot location? Penniman told The Maui News on June 19 that her office has a “policy” of not naming properties involved in such problems. Here’s what Penniman said when I asked her for more details on that policy, which actually isn’t so much a “policy” as it is an “approach:” “It’s not a written policy but has been part of our standard approach ever since MISC was formed in 1999,” she said. “We have worked on thousands of properties over the years. Some landowners aren’t concerned about whether other people know what is on their property; for others a sense of privacy and confidentiality is extremely important. We enter private (and public) property to survey for and control invasive species only with the explicit permission of the landowner. For nocturnal species such as the coqui frog, we have to be on site in the evening. We do not have any statutory authority to enter private property so developing positive relationships with landowners including a sense that we can be trusted is critical to our success. Sharing information about what we found or saw or did would violate that sense of trust and ultimately be detrimental to our overall objectives.”

This seems fine when dealing with miconia or even nuisances like coqui frogs, but what happens when the invasive species actually pose a health threat? Little fire ants have been known to blind pets, and can cause extremely painful bites in humans.

If invasive species like little fire ants are as pernicious and scary as organizations like MISC say they are, then this seems to be a very tenuous way of combatting them. It’s based entirely on secret pacts between county officials and private property owners, in which members of the public are told simply to trust everyone involved.

In any case, to report little fire ants, call the state’s Pest Hotline at 808-643-7378. ■ anthony@mauitime.com + @apignataro For more news articles, visit our news blog at: mauifeed.com

proceed with enforcement of unpermitted and illegal signs once the new guidelines are in place. In the meantime, however, certain illegal signs that are specifically prohibited, such as lighted signs and portable signs, will continue to be cited.

The first meeting will be held on Thursday, July 3, at 10:30am in the Planning Department Conference Room in the Kalana Pakui Building at 250 South High Street in Wailuku. Planning staff encourage property and business owners to participate in the process in order to fully understand the

The Maui County Cultural Resources Commission will hold public meetings beginning next month to discuss revisions to the guidelines for signs in the Lahaina Historic Districts. “We are working to balance competing interests–the need for businesses to advertise and promote themselves, and the need to preserve the historic integrity of the Lahaina Historic Districts,” said county Planning Director Will Spence in a June 19 news release.

Commercial signs in the Lahaina Historic Districts require permits issued by the Department of Planning. The existing design guidelines were last revised in 2001 and are based largely on the “Architectural Style Book for Lahaina” that was adopted by the thenHistoric Commission in 1969. “These guidelines provide detail for allowable materials, colors, fonts and other design elements,” said Deputy Planning Director Michele McLean in that same news release. “However, they contain contradictions and are focused almost completely on the whaling theme rather than allowing signs that are characteristic of Lahaina’s many other historic periods.”

Design guidelines prohibit any signage that is not compatible with Lahaina Town’s historic character. The CRC regulations—which can conflict with bold graphics used by many business owners—require that signs match the historic look of buildings and locations.

The CRC will discuss revisions to the guidelines so they will be more clear and consistent, allow a broader choice of materials and design elements, and can be more easily enforced. “Updating the design guidelines is long overdue, and the CRC is doing a really solid job,” said Spence.

The Planning Department, which staffs the CRC, has taken initiatives over the years to educate property and business owners about the guidelines and the permit process, before taking any enforcement action for unpermitted or illegal signs. The Department will

been serving local food and fresh fish which is delivered by the boats right across the street at the Lahaina Harbor.

“We are excited to be here,” said Stewart Bahl, who co-owns the restaurant alongside his wife Jamie. “We wanted to build a place where we would have wanted to hang out when we came to the islands [on vacation]: a comfortable, casual atmosphere with really good food featuring local fish and local spirits and beers.”

Shaka Vibe Bubble Tea & Treats is proud to be the only and best bubble tea shop on Maui. “The locals have really taken to our product and to our store,” said Rowel Basco who shares in the ownership of the store with his brother Romil.

“They are really the ones who have been promoting us since we opened and we really appreciate the local support.”

India Express, the youngest of the three establishments, offers the very best Indian cuisine. “I make the food from scratch and use local vegetables,” said owner and chef Vatir “Jay” Hussain. “The food is freshly made and people love it. Come stop by and try all of the different dishes.”

For the grand opening of these delicious new eateries, Kahu Kapono Kamaunu gave a special blessing at noon complete with the blowing of the conch shell by student, Ua Bradshaw.

“The blessing was excellent, we really loved it,” Basco said. “My favorite part was the traditional Hawaiian blowing of the conch shell and having the officiator coming in through the store and actually blessing the whole place. It felt like it made it really official.”

The Wharf Cinema Center is located in Lahaina, directly across from the famous Banyan Tree. You can contact Makani Kai Island Grill & Bar at 808-661-4900; Shaka Vibe Bubble Tea & Treats at 808-662-3000; and India Express at 808-661-1207.

There’s nothing sweet about the trouble Hawaiian Commercial & Sugar (HC&S) is now in. On June 24, the state Department of Health’s Clean Air Branch announced that it was fining the only sugar mill left in the state more than $1.3 million for alleged violations in emissions and reporting from 2009 to 2013 at its Pu‘unene sugar mill.

That’s pretty sour news. Though Rick Volner, Jr., the mill’s general manager, wasted no time sending out a statement saying that his company would contest the fines, his defense wasn’t exactly compelling.

“We acknowledge that over the past five years there have been certain deviations from required operating procedures for the facility’s air pollution controls,” Volner said in his company’s news release on the fines.

“Operation of sugar mill boilers is extremely challenging, particularly when combusting sugarcane fiber (bagasse), which has varying degrees of moisture content,” Volner said in his company’s response to the fines. “HC&S recognizes its responsibility to properly operate and maintain its facilities at all times. For over a century, HC&S has placed the highest priority on complying with all environmental regulations applicable to its operations.”

As for the future, Volner said his company has “performed a comprehensive review of our air permit compliance program and have implemented corrective actions to address the matters raised” by the Dept. of Health and added that HC&S intends “to work closely with the DOH to ensure that any deviations from regulatory standards at the Pu‘unene Mill are promptly resolved.”

News Of The Weird MAN OF THE PEOPLE? Scott Fistler, twice a loser for electoral office in Phoenix, Arizona, as a Republican, decided in November 2013 that his luck might improve as a Democrat with a name change, and legally became “Cesar Chavez,” expecting to poll better in a heavily Hispanic, Democratic congressional district. (“Cesar Chavez” is of course the name of the legendary labor organizer.) Furthermore, according to a June report in the Arizona Capitol Times, “Chavez’s” campaign website features photographs of frenzied supporters holding “Chavez” signs, but which are obviously scenes from the streets of Venezuela at rallies for its late president Hugo Chavez. (At press time for News of the Weird, a judge had removed “Chavez” from the ballot, but only because some qualifying signatures were invalid.

“Chavez” promised to appeal.)

COMPELLING EXPLANATIONS U.S. District Judge Richard Kopf of Omaha, Nebraska, trying to be helpful, he said, advised female lawyers appearing in his courtroom to lower their hemlines and cover their cleavage because males, including Judge Kopf himself, are “pigs.”

Writing in his personal blog in March, he said, “I have been a dirty old man ever since I was a very young man” and that the women in his office are similarly contemptuous of daringly dressed female lawyers. The lifetime-tenured judge later said he regretted any harm to the judiciary that his remarks might have caused.

(the Electronic Frontier Foundation) called the NSA’s explanation disingenuous and, in fact, further proof that the NSA is incapable of properly managing such massive data-gathering.

DID THEY PASS? Michael Adrian, 26, was arrested in Lakeville, Minnesota, in June for frightening officials at Lakeville North High School by skateboarding in front of the school, in military dress, face covered by a bandana, with an arrow strapped to his arm, and concealing knives, a box-cutter, a slingshot and pepper spray. Adrian told police he was merely “testing” the school’s security system by “looking like an a**hole.” A judge ordered a mental evaluation.

AMERICAN JUSTICE In June, a jury in Fresno, California, decided that Bobby Lee Pearson, 37, was guilty of burglary–but they accidentally signed the “not-guilty” form, instead, and by the time Judge W. Kent Hamlin caught the error, he could not change it (because of “double jeopardy”). Pearson walked out a free man, went to his sister’s home, got into a fight hours later, and was stabbed to death by the sister’s boyfriend.

NEWS THAT SOUNDS LIKE A JOKE

Almond Upton, 60, charged with murder for “intentionally” striking a New York state trooper in May with his pickup truck, denied everything. He told reporters following his first court appearance that he is bewildered by the accusation: “I was [close to] the Connecticut border, and all of a sudden, I’m in Binghamton, New York [about 140 miles from Connecticut], and this cop got killed, I don’t know how it happened. It had to be a time warp.”

The animosity between Brevard County (Florida) Judge John Murphy and public defender Andrew Weinstock festered over the lawyer’s refusal to waive his client’s right to a speedy trial, but came to a head on June 2, when the judge told Weinstock, “Stop pissing me off. Just sit down.”

Weinstock persisted: “I have a right to stand and represent my client.” The judge responded: “If you want to fight, let’s go out back, and I’ll just beat your a**.”

And to a back hallway they went, with the lawyer allegedly just intending to talk out their differences. However, according to Weinstock’s supervisor, Judge Murphy immediately grabbed Weinstock and began punching him. Weinstock was not seriously hurt, but vowed to report the incident to the Florida Bar.

THIS WEEK IN NSA CHUTZPAH

HOW DOES SHE GET HER BOOTY BACK?

The National Security Agency admitted in a June court filing that it had disobeyed two judicial orders to stop deleting accusatory evidence in its databases (which judges had ordered preserved to help determine if the NSA was illegally violating privacy laws). The NSA’s reasoning for its chutzpah: Its data-gathering systems, it claims, are “too complex” to prevent the automatic deletions routinely programmed into its data, and it cannot reprogram to preserve the data without shutting down its entire intelligencegathering mission. The challenging party

Robert Wallace, 32, a Houston software developer, filed a lawsuit in May to get back some items after a failed romance.

According to Wallace, he had loaned a laptop computer, $2,000 cash and his Harry Potter DVDs to his sweetheart, Nomi Mims, a local stripper. Wallace said the loans were made only because he thought she was in love with him and that they were “building a future together,” but now realizes he was wrong.

FREE RADIO REDUX Though Manao Hana Hou Radio is back on the air, and in many ways stronger than ever, will it survive in our new digital media world?

By Anthony Pignataro

I

t’s a quarter after 10 on Tuesday morning and Tony Novak-Clifford is sitting out front of a small office at Hart’s Corner in Wailuku Town smoking a cigarette. As is usually the case these days, he’s thinking about money.

Novak-Clifford, a renowned local photographer, is also the general manager and program director for Manao Hana Hou Radio, Maui’s only independent, nonprofit radio station. He also does a show on Manao from 6-10am on Tuesdays, which had concluded a few minutes before I met him on the bench outside the station offices. He usually plays indie folk and bluegrass. “It depends on how much caffeine I’ve had,” he told me.

Once a low-power (156 watt) station broadcast out of an industrial park in Wailuku, the station recently installed a new transmitter on Haleakala, which boosted its transmission to 1,200 watts. Novak-Clifford said making that transition required the 12-year-old station to go completely off the air. And that they did, at 11pm on April 6. Over the next two months, the station went through a lot of changes.

“Our old Internet signal was run by ancient Windows technology,” NovakClifford told me in between puffs. “We had to reboot every 20 minutes. And our transmitter died just two days before we went off the air. It’s been 12 years with very little maintenance. We spent $12,000 on a new transmitter.”

The station office is also a lot nicer than the old digs, which were located in a Wailuku light industrial area. “I wouldn’t cook meth there,” Novak-Clifford said, referring to the old station office. “Now, people take their slippers off when come in the door!

Everyone’s a lot more comfortable here.”

The old studio was cramped and creaky.

The new one is more open. Wooden shelves of CDs line the walls, and sheets of white Styrofoam are screwed into the ceiling.

At 6am on June 1, the station–now officially called Manao Hana Hou Radio– reappeared at 91.7 on your FM dial (it’s still online at Manaoradio.com). NovakClifford credits his two engineers–John Bruce and Rick Billmand–with getting it done. And though the offices and transmitter are very different from the little low power station begun a dozen years ago, much of Manao is exactly the same.

In these days of media disruption, this is both risky and refreshing.

“Our next goal is to be self-supporting,” Novak-Clifford told me. “Then we want to get a repeater transmitter and blanket West Maui. And people can get us online with a signal that’s every bit as

10 JUNE 26, 2014

good as what we broadcast.”

A veteran of Mainland college radio in the 1970s, Novak-Clifford first heard Manao Radio about six months after the station went on the air. “I bugged [station founder] Barry [Shannon], and he gave me a time slot, which quickly turned into three a week,” he said. “Here we are today.”

Novak-Clifford said he’s surprised at the number of people outside of Maui who listen to the station. “We have an amazing international audience,” he said.

“I just got an email from a lady in Buenos Aires. Another was from someone who grew up just a few blocks from here and now lives in North Carolina.”

The station may start public radio-style fundraising. “We’re trying to get every time slot underwritten,” he said. “Our disappearance showed people that we’re a community asset.”

Doing all that takes work–a lot of work.

“It’s an amazing amount of work,” he said. “Sometimes I don’t know why we’re doing it. But the reality is that a Christian broadcasting network would scoop up the license” if they weren’t. “I have nothing against them, but there are enough of them on the air and not enough of this.”

By “this,” Novak-Clifford means a wildly eclectic and unpredictable bunch of music usually often broadcast by college radio stations than little low power operations. While there’s a certain comfort to knowing that Joe Hawkins on KONI 104.7FM will always play Beatles songs you’ve heard 12,000 times during his morning drive time Maui Sunrise Show, or that Sista Val always signs off her Mid-Day Mana show on KPOA 93.5FM with “My Island Home Maui,” it’s also nice to break away from songs heard hundreds of times before and explore art you’ve never heard of.

Over the last week, I listened to Manao at random times throughout the day. I heard, in no particular order, hymnals, instrumental music, a Jack Johnson cover of John Lennon’s “Imagine,” blues, Hawaiian music, roots, alt-country, rock and Hoyt Axton’s “Pet Parade.” At midnight on Saturdays, Manao has even started a punk rock show–the only one on Maui airwaves.

Called “Minority Report,” it’s hosted by Jeremy Jarvis and Jose Roman.

“I’ve always felt that commercial radio was kind of insulting,” said Novak-Clifford.

“This is about the only outlet where you get exposed to something that’s not hammered into your head a thousand times a day.”

One show that exemplifies that attitude is “Musical Star Streams,” which runs for a couple hours on Tuesdays after Novak-

Then I met [Manao DJ] Bill Best, and he told me about the station. I thought, I want to do that! I started to collect music again.”

For Wood, the station fostered a free community that simply didn’t exist any-

“This is about the only outlet where you get exposed to something that’s not hammered into your head a thousand times a day.” where else on the island.

“People would call with a sense of ownership,” he said. “A guy would call me during every show. He’d add a quip or something. I never knew his name, and never thought to ask for it. Where does this happen in life?”

For most radio DJs, “other people try to tell you what to do,” Wood said. “Barry hated that. ‘We don’t take requests,’ he’d say. He wanted something more dignified for the DJ.” Ten years ago, I wrote about Manao Radio for MauiTime (“Free Radio,” Jan. 15, 2004).

I drove over to their old station and chatted with founder Barry Shannon, his wife Kathy Collins and a few of the station’s many disc jockeys. They were an eclectic, colorful bunch with a wide variety of interests–musically and otherwise–who shared one passion: radio that was dedicated to sharing great tunes with listeners, not selling them the latest artists lucky enough to score big record contracts.

A great deal about Manao has changed in the last few months, but Novak-Clifford told me it all started back in 2007, when founder Barry Shannon died. Kathy Collins, Shannon’s wife and fellow Manao DJ, took over, but the station just wasn’t the same.

“I tried to quit about two years ago,” Novak-Clifford said. “I didn’t feel our efforts

from the big tube-filled radio box in the living room. But ever since the first television broadcast (that would be Adolf Hitler opening the 1936 Olympic games) hit the airwaves, radio’s days as the world’s domi-

nant media source were clearly numbered.

That we’re still able to beam radio broadcasts into the atmosphere and pick them up with small receivers in our cars and homes almost seems like a miracle. In a day when everything that uses electricity seems to be digital, radio is a throwback to an ancient, mechanical era.

Like print journalism, which is also undergoing massive change and dislocation, radio’s audience is rapidly moving to the Internet.

New online “stations” like Pandora and Spotify rapidly dominating people’s musical media consumption.

Indeed, All Things D reported in 2013 that of the six places where people “consume audio media,” broadcast radio led in just two: the car and the home. It tied with Internet radio in the workplace and on public transportation, and now trails Internet radio in situations where people are out walking or working out.

“Pandora and Spotify didn’t exist when we started,” Novak-Clifford told me.

“We’ve had to step up or give up.”

Still, Novak-Clifford is upbeat about his station’s future.

“People sit in their rooms or their cars, and radio is like a book,” he said. “They go on this journey. You take a ride. It’s like your industry–print isn’t dead. I’m not going to be at the beach for 12 hours with my iPad.” For DJs like Forest, the fact that the station allows a freedom for the DJs and listeners that doesn’t exist elsewhere is what makes it matter–and, hopefully, popular enough to stay on the air.

“The nice thing about this station is that people do it out of love of the music. Not like typical stations that tell you what to play,” Forest told me. “At KTIM (in San Rafael) we called ourselves the last free radio station. We were allowed to play what we wanted.”

Paul Wood agreed.

“For me, and this was Barry’s founding principle, this was to free the airwaves and decommercialize the airwaves,” Wood said.

“Radio is not simply there to sell products.” ■ anthony@mauitime.com + @apignataro For more news articles, visit our news blog at: mauifeed.com

Clifford signs off. Hosted by a DJ named Forest, it plays spacey synthesizer music.

“The music sets a mood,” Forest told me while I hung out in the studio during a recent broadcast. “I call it ‘exotic electronica.’ It was new agey in the early days, but now it’s more chill. People really like it. It just touches you, you know. I really love the music, and being able to share stuff that, without a doubt, no one else is gonna be playing.”

Forest also hosts another, more diverse, show on Thurday afternoons called “The Blue Bus.” Though he only moved to Maui in the last few months, he said he’s been visiting the island since the 1970s. He’s also been doing his “Musical Star Streams” show since 1981, and said it’s carried on 200 stations. Many of the songs he plays are on albums put out by his own label–Waveform.

As we talked, Forest put a song on– “Smoke” by Space Safari. It’s on one of his Waveform albums, Smooth Chill.

About halfway in, it sampled dialogue from two women: “Marcia, why did we ever smoke marijuana?” the first one asked.

“I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know…” the second one said.

“So cool,” Forest said while monitoring the studio’s AEQ BC 300 broadcast mixing console.

Forest told me he studied law at the University of San Francisco. “There’s so much minutae in the law, oh my god,” he says. He was doing consumer protection stuff at the San Francisco DA’s office when he got his start in radio. While he told me about taking the Bar exam, and how he passed, he played a song that sampled Led Zeppelin and Jim Morrison.

“Hope they paid royalties,” Novak-Clifford called out from his desk in the front office.

“Uh huh,” Forest said.

The local writer and teacher Paul Wood had a once-a-week show on Manao for about a decade. He had to put his CDs in storage recently, and isn’t sure about going back. But the time he spent there, and the station itself, remains important to him.

“In 2002, I had no CDs, and gave away all my LPs,” he said. “My life was silent.

were being supported. I sent Kathy [Collins] a long list of stuff. She agreed and asked me to be the program director. But my hands were tied–we had no budget. I needed a couple hundred bucks for office supplies. It wasn’t there, and she was over it.”

Reached by phone, Collins said that though she was “officially retired” from the station, she was an adviser. “I’ve had a full-time job wth the County for 20 years now,” she said. “I’ve been doing a lot more performing, writing. I needed to step back. I’m so happy with the new leadership–if Tony hadn’t taken the job [as program director], we probably wouldn’t have lasted as long as we have.”

Indeed, Novak-Clifford said that she “has been amazingly supportive of the transition. She donated the license, library, equipment. She handed off the station on June 1. And she’s already agreed to do Christmas Day.” “I’m just a sucker for Christmas music,” Collins told me.

Of course, part of Manao’s troubles may stem from the fact that this isn’t exactly the golden age of radio. “We’ve been lucky to have this station for 12 years,” Novak-Clifford told me. “Stations like this die every day.”

Throughout the 1940s, most people got their news, sports and entertainment

They don’t call them “disc jockeys” for nothing...

Taking a ride with Kyle Kawakami’s Maui Fresh Streatery truck

Chef Kyle Kawakami

MAUI FRESH STREATERY 137 E Ka’ahumanu Ave., Kahului 808-344-7929 Mauifreshstreatery.com

barbecue sauce, citrus crema and scallions, all perched atop a bed of crispy tater tots.

His menu also offers the Reuben Sando– corned beef, sauerkraut, Thousand Island dressing, Swiss cheese and S&J Bakery marbled rye. The sandwich comes with a side of Kumu Farms organic greens. The Sando did so well that it sold out in the first week, and he didn’t have any more corned beef. The sando changed to a Maui Cattle Company tri tip the next week.

The menu’s hot dish is a Pork and Hominy Verde with salad and tortilla. And the popular calamari and papaya salad features Kumu Farms non-GMO papaya, tobiko and an aioli drizzle.

“Kumu Farms have been huge supporters,” says Kawakami, explaining that they’re just one part of a growing local network that supplies his truck. “I’m talking with them three or four times a week to say, ‘hey, what do you have?’ If we can work hand in hand with you, and you have an outlet to send your products, then we create this locavore economy. We have fresh great local produce and the monies that we are generating here on the island are not getting sent out to Mainland produce. I am always looking for local small purveyors.

S&J bakery does my all my breads. They

have donated to Women Helping Women, fundraising for little kids fighting cancer, other various organizations looking for assistance on island. We are trying to work with the local schools in this area, like the Grow Some Good concept. It’s huge out in Kihei and Lahaina where they have the big restaurants and chefs out there to support it, but somehow it doesn’t make its way here to Central. So we try to help out. We raised funds for Pomakai Elementary to get their garden going for the semester. It feels good to be part of that. When I started the concept of the philosophy of the truck I didn’t want to just be somebody here that is selling food and making money. I wanted to be part of the community in Central Maui.”

Kawakami knows the concept of the food truck and its rotating menu can be new for his Central Maui customers, but he says he’s in it for the long haul.

“Of course for people from the Mainland, they are more used to the different menu items,” he says. “Hawaii people, they are still getting there. I have customers that come in and say, ‘Hey, where is the dish I heard someone talking about?’ and it’s a dish we had four months ago and they are going to have to wait four months before

hef Kyle Kawakami’s Maui Fresh Streatery has probably created more buzz on Facebook and Instagram than any other local food truck. His bright red and green truck can be found at the Shell Station on Ka‘ahumanu Avenue across from Maui Beach Hotel. He offers new Maui street cuisine every two weeks, which is part of Kawakami’s inventive farm-to-table strategy.

“When you are trying to do seasonal products, you have to be diverse with your menu,” says Kawakami. “Someone might have eggplant one week then all of a sudden eggplant harvest is done and you have green beans. The fishermen are coming with ahi and then the ahi run away and you have mahi mahi. If you are trying to depend on a menu that is static, then the whole concept of farm-to-table or localvore really doesn’t work.”

That means Kawakami needs to be flexible.

“So right now we have done a total of 12 completely different menus,” he says. “We started in August and we did seven months without repeating a two-week cycle. The cycle is 12 cuisine themes–we are in California right now. We just got done with Indian, then to Americana.

Next we go to Japan, Italy, France, Korean and Southern USA–like grits and jambalaya. Within those cuisines, there are thousands of different recipes you can choose from.”

His location at the Shell station is part

of a partnership to attract more customers to their locations. He said they tried the Pu’unene and Kamehameha corner, but the recycling and car wash there made it too busy.

They’re open Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 11am to 2pm, and have created such a following that it’s not unusual for them to run out of food. There are four dishes daily: a fancy french fry dish, salad entree, sandwich and hot entree. Most times, you can see what they have on the menu by a visit to the Maui Fresh Streatery Facebook page, which is updated nearly every day.

Though Kawakami graduated from the Maui Culinary Academy, he wasn’t a typical student.

When he began he was managing a car rental company, having already gotten a degree at UH Manoa. During his time at the school, he got a job with Chef Tylun Pang at The Fairmont Kea Lani. After graduation, he was offered a teaching post there, and taught on Maui for nearly a decade. His next venture was the Maui Fresh Streatery Food Truck.

“I always like to travel,” says Kawakami. “I did a lot of traveling to San Francisco, Portland, LA, Seattle. I had the opportunity to travel through school up to Napa Valley, taking classes. The food trucks were always booming at the time. It’s weird–what happens in California is kinda two years ahead of what hits Honolulu and then it’s another year or two before it hits the neighbor islands. I had been watching it and eating at these food trucks in Portland and seeing what those guys are doing.”

Of course, Kawakami had been exposed to lunch wagons in college, but these trucks were very different.

“You know lunch wagons are the greasy chicken katsu, scoops white rice, and mac salad,” he says. “I had always been drawn to that. Then I saw what the chefs form the Mainland were doing. I worked on translating the lunch wagon and food truck food into something that could be put out of a mobile unit. It just worked out that way where the timing was right and I jumped on it. I thought Maui was ready to do something and we made it happen.”

You can see the results in what he’s done with his newest toy, a smoker he got for Father’s Day. With it he hickory-kiawe smoked some chicken and created something he calls “Tupac Tots:” chopped, smoked chicken, corn, black beans, cheddar and jack cheese,

Maui Fresh Streatery

have been huge community supporters.

For seafood, I try to buy direct from local commercial fisherman or friends that go out and drop by my house with coolers of fish. Maui Sweet Cakes–Heidi Kramer–does some desserts. We have someone from Japan that does our cheesecakes. I have locally made lemonade. It just makes sense to support this whole network.”

Maui Fresh Streatery is also a part of the local nonprofit community, and helps schools in Central Maui get up to speed with their own school gardens.

“Our tip jar is one thing that we’re pretty proud of–all of the tips go to local nonprofits on the island,” says Kawakami. “We

it comes back. We have to kind of educate them as to what that menu style is, and why that is. They’re used to a menu that is hamburger steak, chicken hekka, katsu and garlic shrimp. There are plenty of places doing that and we’re not here to compete against them. [But] people are slowly getting it. I don’t mind having weeks that are less busy.

If we stick with it, then the people who try it will, in turn, talk about it and tell others to try it. For us, that is the exciting thing: exposing people to dining adventures.”■ jen@mauitime.com + @jenrusso For more foodie news, visit MauiTime’s food blog at: mauidish.com

Dancing With A Mop We talk story with Lia Live before her big Kihei Fourth Friday show working under pressure, so I buckled down and did all the work I needed to do to pull it off, and I did. While I was in high school I got into surfing and the island lifestyle, I fell in love with Maui and by the time I graduated I just couldn’t leave this all behind.

Q A

Maui's Lia Live

Lia Ledezma Bradley is one of Maui’s most vivacious entertainers. Performing as Lia Live, she’s brought her energy to audiences across the island. We chatted with her before her upcoming performance at Kihei’s Fourth Friday Town Party to find out how dancing with a mop got her started and why her heart lies on Maui.

Q A

What made you want to be a performer?

Q A

How did you get your career off the ground?

After graduating high school, I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. I held a series of odd jobs, getting in trouble a lot for singing out loud and dancing around with the mop. My

Q A

It’s funny we’re called “solo artists” because we could never really do this alone. I work with many people in many different projects. I currently sing with some convention bands such as Funky Business here in Maui and Alapa Drive from Lanai. When I was in LA, the music I performed was mainly Hip Hop and Reggaeton, which was very popular at the time.

I performed to tracks with a DJ and I had a choreographed show with dancers.

When I returned to Maui I was looking for something more organic, so I tried to look for a band I could join and work together with to not carry all the load. I found Livacious, this great dub-roots band where I met my boyfriend Kai Akin. After a short while Livacious broke up, but during that time I wrote a lot of good songs to Kai’s grooves that we still perform together when we do acoustic gigs.

After that I decided to just put my name out there as a solo artist and play with different bands. When doing a Lia Live show, I usually perform with bands that already have a name for themselves such as the Kryptones and HI Ground. I also perform with other local female artists such as Leylani and Kalisi, whom I have collaborated with on a few songs.

Q A

What are your favorite songs to perform?

That’s a tough question because it changes from time to time, but right now I’m really digging this Dancehall version of Royals I do over the “Murder She Wrote” beat. I have many fallback classics that I love such as “So Lonely”

Q A

Where can we see Lia Live?

This Friday, I will be performing at Kihei Fourth Friday on the main stage from 7:45-9:00pm with Kalisi and Leylani and their band. I play at different types of festivals, concerts, clubs and private events. Last month, I performed at the Maui Brewers Festival at the MACC. This past weekend, I performed with an acoustic trio at a beach party. ■ jen@mauitime.com + @jenrusso For more A&E news, visit MauiTime’s food blog at: mauidish.com

You’re originally from Panama. How long have you been on Maui?

I graduated here on Maui from King Kekaulike High School. I moved here when I was 14 because my sister had just got married and was having a baby. My mother and I came to help her. During that time I attended high school, and it was a big culture shock. School here is a lot more relaxed and kids have a lot more freedoms than they do in Panama.

Also there’s less consequences when you get in trouble so of course that’s exactly what I did. After getting myself in trouble I had to attend tutoring for three months. One of the tutors told me that he didn’t think I would be able to graduate, so I was determined to prove him wrong. I’ve always been good at

Getting in the entertainment business is actually something I didn’t want to do, but something I fell into because it is in my blood. I have a very musical family. My father is the conductor of the Panama National Symphonic Orchestra, and as a child I performed in many of his productions.

But I also grew up watching one of my older sisters try to “make it” in this business, and I saw how tough the industry can be to break into so I was very discouraged by it.

Ultimately, the reason I started was because I felt performing was something that brought me joy. Once I realized that I could sing or say anything and be who I wanted to be at the moment I was behind that mic, and someone else would relate to it and appreciate that, it made me see that it is a beautiful gift and I needed to do something with it. Also, being on stage is a great rush and I’m kind of an adrenaline junkie.

friends tolerated my loudness and annoying-ness and knew me for that.

Then one day my friend Tiare saw a flyer at MCC [Maui Community College] about a girl group audition she thought I would be perfect for. I called and I went through a series of auditions until I became a member of the singing group Shuga. Shortly after, my friend Annjulie Vai introduced me to her friend Scott Baird, whose band Crazy Fingers was very popular. I began coming to their shows and waiting for a chance to get up and let loose. I was very lucky because I got a double-sided learning experience.

I learned a lot about the entertainment business from the Shuga’s manager, Angela Montilliano, and at the same time I would sit in with Crazy Fingers and learned how to be comfortable in live performances. I then went on to start a solo career and moved to LA to go to school at Musicians Institute.

How does being solo differ from when you were with Shuga?

by The Police and “Underneath it All” by No Doubt. I also love singing a lot of Bob Marley because of the uplifting messages. Another artist I like to cover is Shakira; her latest, “I Can’t Remember to Forget You,” has a cool ska vibe reminiscent of The Police which is a sound I’m really into that seems to be coming back.

Pharrell is another artist that I’ve been enjoying covering lately as well as Bruno Mars.

It’s also really fun to perform my originals. I have a really fun funk song called “Little Black Shoes” that people really seem to enjoy. Sometimes I put a little Latin twist on my latest single “411,” which makes it different and fun.

No Dragon-Haters Here ‘How To Train Your Dragon 2’ is way more awesome and engaging than the original How To Train Your Dragon 2

★★★★★ Rated PG / 102 Min.

W

hile the 2010 CG animated film How to Train Your Dragon quickly became a beloved family film, I wasn’t entirely in its corner. The human characters just weren’t as interesting as the wild menagerie of dragons on display. In fact, none of the humans held my attention as much as Toothless, the little dragon who resembles E.T. with coal black skin and a set of wings.

The story of Viking warriors at odds with dragons didn’t grab me, especially not when the focus was on the formulaic, dysfunctional relationship between King Stoik (voiced by Gerard Butler) and his earnest goofball of a son Hiccup (voiced by Jay Baruchel). When you’re given awesome scenes of dragons taking flight and a wounded Toothless learning to fly with a modified tail, I could have cared less about any of those irritating dragon-haters. The problems I had with the original How to Train Your Dragon have been corrected. This time, the humans are as engaging as the dragons.

Initially, we get a repeat of the tedious, Dad-why-won’t-you-listen-to-me dynamic from the original. The Vikings and dragons are now living in harmony (and playing a hilarious variation on soccer, involving Billy goats and flying) but Stoik is still slow at listening to anyone but himself. When Hiccup makes a personal discovery, the Vikings become aware of a danger that involves their future and the further existence of dragons.

The story takes a number of varying paths that differ greatly from the first film, particularly in the way it introduces Cate Blanchett’s character, which I won’t describe. I will say that her line readings are pleasantly (and appropriately) strange and her two introductory sequences (one in the sky, the other in a cave) are visual knockouts. The build up to her big reveal allows for imagery that is breathtakingly cool and right out of classic fantasy literature.

If there’s one image that sums up the appeal of the film, it’s Hiccup, hands folded behind his head, lying on Toothless’ back, while his pet dragon soars above the clouds.

The many, spectacular dragon flights capture a sense of wonder and childhood fantasy that bring to mind The Never-Ending Story.

Great–now every kid in America will want a dragon

In fact, this delivers the goods when portraying giant monsters at battle even more than the recent Godzilla remake.

Toothless remains an adorable CG creation with movement both self-consciously cute and fascinating in its strangeness. He’s in good company, as all of the fantasy creatures offer cartoon-like whimsy and vaguely menacing demeanors.Yet, the humans carry the story, as stronger, stranger tale of parental neglect and rediscovery is the heart of the film.

The nutty crew of human sidekicks (all Viking teens) are self-consciously offbeat and still irritating, though they seem to belong this time and not just included for hipness. This isn’t a half-hearted repeat, like

Shreck 2 or Ice Age 2, but a quirkier, visually and thematically richer experience.

There’s a scene, late in the film, that reminded me of Bambi. I won’t describe what happens, only that what takes place is startling and memorably sad. The dynamic of dragon tamer Hiccup and his dragon, Toothless, is altered in a way that is unusually cruel and emotionally intense for a children’s film.

The moment made me cry and reminded me of the infamously harsh “Man has taken her away” scene from Bambi that haunted children and stunned their parents for years. Most films aimed at children don’t aim that high, nor care to take a real risk at storytelling, but this one does. ■

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)

Things get tricky when you live in an economy of scarcity. Sharing—of anything; love, food, your bed—becomes nigh unto impossible when you believe there won’t be enough to satisfy your own needs, let alone others’. “Let them take care of themselves,” you think. “I’ve barely got enough for me.” Unfortunately, it’s that kind of attitude that begets true scarcity. Imagine your positions were reversed; you’d dearly wish that you’d benefit from a little generosity, and you would—as long as you take care of those in need now. Keep half of whatever you’ve got for yourself this week. Give the rest away. You’ll be amazed at how far it goes.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)

The best thing I can say is at least you won’t be alone for a while. The company you’re keeping may not currently fulfill you in every way, but you’re not lonely. Okay, it’s hardly a best-case scenario. But it’s not like you’re trapped; you can easily extricate yourself, whenever you like. Meanwhile, there are plenty of great things going on, and with a little work, maybe there’ll be a few more. Stick it out for a while, without making any insane commitments. See what happens. Maybe your current thing will bloom into prince(ss) charming. If not, you can always run off with him or her when s/he finally shows up.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)

If anyone is used to sharing, it’s you. You even have to share your ruling planet, Mercury, with those unruly Geminis. But just because you’re good at it doesn’t mean you should have to do it all the time. Be selfish this week, Virgo. Hoard your goodies, for just a little while. It’s sweet to be openhanded, but you’ve been maxing out on the self-sacrifice. If you don’t want to end up getting nailed to a cross somewhere, follow my advice: Don’t revert to your old, munificent habits until you’ve had at least seven days in a row during which you’ve spent more time, money, and energy on yourself than on everyone else combined.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19)

Some physicists propound the lonely theory that our universe is expanding; already vast distances becoming more impassable all the time. Others theorize that it’ll at some point contract, ultimately creating another Big Bang and a whole new universe. A third faction believes that the universe has equilibrium and will maintain itself indefinitely. As without, so within; you could go in any of three directions: Continue to expand, allowing your numerous connections to grow fainter and less intimate; Turn inward and be reborn, re-forging intimacies as you go; Or find a balanced path in between. Choose, this week: Hermit, phoenix, or regular Joe? Which path is best is up to you.

Like those Virgos, you’re good at sharing. Unlike them, you don’t get sick of it quite as easily—in fact, you’re far more likely to be guilty of over-share than any other sign. Hey, that’s no bad thing, even though some of the more judgmental signs might sometimes think so. So what? Screw them. Obviously, you’re not meant to end up with one of those people. Go ahead and tell everyone you meet everything about you, from old band camp stories to what you ate for breakfast. You’ll know who your real friends are: those people who are genuinely interested.

include sadomasochistic abuse under the definition of sexual conduct, including clarification that a law enforcement officer shall not be exempt from the offense while acting in the course and scope of duties”

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18)

Aquarians make great friends. It’s not that you’re especially gifted with sensitivity or thoughtfulness— in fact, you’re often incredibly self-centered (don’t sweat it, most fascinating people are). It’s that when a friend asks you to do something, you always, always do it, whether it’s helping them move, picking them up from the airport, or just listening to them vent. It’s really great—for those who know the secret: asking. That’s the key that’s been missing from the friendship lexicons of some of your newest pals. Please fill them in, by telling them, “If you ever need something, just ask for it, and it’s yours.”

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20)

The dog is always ready for excitement. His transition from deep, nearly comatose sleep to dancing at the doorknob in anticipation of a walk takes about three seconds. Be the dog. It’s about absolute presence, about being cool with whatever’s going on. If you have a half-hour to sleep, plunge into dreamland instantly.

And if something’s going on whenever you’d been planning on sleeping, go with it. Screw your schedule; the universe has got its own plans for you this week.

Either accept that and have a blast or resist it and be miserable. But don’t say you weren’t warned.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)

All my romantic gestures fell flat last week. Everything I tried either backfired or simply didn’t happen the way I intended. However, I’m undeterred. I have a whole batch of new ones I mean to whip out the first chance I get. Please emulate my attitude in the coming weeks, as only about half of what you attempt will succeed at all. If you can’t wrap your head around an “if-at-firstyou-don’t-succeed…” mind-set, you’re screwed. Also, be motivated. If you only try twice, you’ll only fail once— but you’ll only succeed once. If you try 50 times, you’ll have 25 failures—but as many triumphs.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)

Isaac Newton was the kind of genius who felt that the thrill and importance of discovery outweighed personal safety. He famously conducted experiments that involved staring at the sun until he went blind, or sticking a needle deeply between his eye and eyelid to satisfy his own curiosity. You should identify. Having an experience is usually a higher priority than keeping yourself safe. The choices ahead of you all possess a serious element of danger or risk—8 out of the 11 other signs would quail before exploring any of them.

Luckily, your only regret is likely to be that you don’t have time to explore them all. Try anyway; you’ve got to keep up your rep somehow.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)

You’re not used to being resented. You’re generally so laidback, easygoing, and friendly that when people—despite your mellow attitude—take offense, it catches you off guard. Unfortunately, people are likely to take most of what you say in exactly the wrong way this week. That’s the shitty news. The good news, however, is that all the slights and social punishments you’re subjected to are likely to have unexpected beneficial fallout—more reward than you’d ever have gotten if all had gone according to plan.

This is a good week to amicably break up with someone. You know, say, “Let’s be friends,” and really mean it.

It’s also a good week to find a friend with benefits, the kind who’ll actually have sex with you for months and never get bored, or overly sentimental. Seize this opportunity. You’re always thinking shit like, “I’ve been meaning to tell him, there just hasn’t been the right moment.”

This week has an abundance of right moments, so act on them. If you procrastinate further and consequently create a disaster, you have only yourself to blame.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)

You’re word-resistant this week. To get anything through to you would require whole battalions of verbs and adjectives, phalanxes of nouns collapsing in exhausted heaps against your armored shell. Regular conversations might as well be in Inuit, and emails and letters in Sanskrit. In fact, all normal forms of communication to and from your internal command center have been suspended until further notice. Therefore concentrate on forms of communication you’re not used to, like touch, music, food, and kisses. My hope is that not only will you let yourself “say” stuff that you’d never speak aloud, you’ll say it better than you ever could with words.
