HATES US BECAUSE WE ADHERE TO AP STYLE Obviously your boy Pignataro never spent day 1 in the desert for his country (“It’s Sunset for the Army in Hawaii,” Feb. 5, 2015). Captain and Major are CAPITALIZED ranks. These men are or were Commissioned Officers in the Armed Forces and their ranks do not carry lower case. Have some God damned respect. You’re welcome that you’re not speaking Japanese today. -Ryan Chase, via email

Anthony Pignataro responds: AP Style only requires newspapers to capitalize military ranks like captain and major (some of whom are actually women these days!) when the title is placed in front of someone’s name, which we did in the story. But thanks for reading!

HATES OUR TAKE ON MAUI MEMORIAL MEDICAL CENTER I read with great dismay the article regarding [Maui Memorial Medical Center] MMMC and [Hawaii Health System Corporation] HHSC by Susan Halas (“Maui Memorial Hospital Faces Public/Private Partnership or Bust,” Jan. 29, 2015). I am deeply disappointed that the weekly magazine which I believed to have the pono attitude we all espouse here on Maui would tacitly endorse such a monstrous diatribe.

I have lived in the islands for five years now and worked on the Mainland for 30 years in the healthcare profession. America remains a grotesque anomaly in the “civilized” world with its refusal, so far, to treat healthcare as a privilege and not a right. This is a patently ghastly perspective and accounts for the actual murder by our system of tens of thousands of our fellow citizens annually. All this immoral talk about privatizing the hospitals on the neighbor islands will in my view lead Hawaii and many of its most vulnerable and ill people into a very dark place. The article which you so irresponsibly published set up two false choices that are LIES! Either bankruptcy or going into a public-private partnership were offered as the two choices. Lies! The simplest and most humane way for all concerned is to find the necessary funding here in the state to keep the HHSC system in place as is. I am so tired of the idea that raising taxes is anathema and impossible. There are other ways to find the necessary funds. There is a tremendous waste of taxpayer money in ridiculous law enforcement expenditures. In addition, the union could renegotiate, ameliorating a small percentage of the benefits package as now provided and further truncate the benefits in a slowly phased-in time frame where no one will be hurt in any significant way. -Anonymous, via snail mail

MAUI PD RELEASES 2014 BAD COPS REPORT

ME: “I was wondering what prompted the department to release this summary to the media? I don’t recall similar reports in previous years.” LT. WILLIAM JUAN: “This report is open to the public via www.capitol.hawaii. gov website. Each County Police Department submits this report annually. Our department decided [to] send this out via a press release.” Serves me right for asking such a direct question. But I could also find no sign of the report at the link Juan cites above. In any case, the report has all sorts of fun reading for the taxpayers who fund the Maui PD. Here are a few of the most recent incidents, involving disciplinary actions in November and December of 2014:

That last one also led to two other cops getting busted–one for failing “to conduct a proper investigation” and one for failing “to supervise the proper investigation.” The department also suspended those cops for three and five days, respectively. Seriously, does any of this seem just and proper? Failing to appear in court after getting a subpoena, using someone’s funds in an “unauthorized” manner and driving under the influence are called “crimes.” Civilians can get jail time for committing them, but when you’re a cop, a simple suspension of a few days seems to be the order of the day. What’s more, the report contains no information as to who the officers were who committed these acts or where they’re currently assigned. Look it’s great that the Maui PD decided to release this report to the media, but as we’ve reported for the last few years, the Hawaii public records law sucks when it comes to police officers. It would be nice if the state Legislature did something meaningful about it this session, but that’s unlikely. Last year, Governor Neil Abercrombie signed Act 121, which “requires additional information from county police departments in their annual report to the Legislature of misconduct incidents that resulted in the suspension or discharge of an officer,” but still falls short of releasing the cops’ names. Of course, if people disagree with this they can always take it up with the Maui Police Commission, though there isn’t a lot that panel can do about it. Because of the popularity of last month’s meeting, the Commission will meet again at UH Maui College this month. The next meeting takes place on Wednesday, Feb. 18 at 9:30am in the Multi-Purpose Room in the college’s Pilina Building, on the second floor above the Campus Bookstore.

3-CAN’S STILL DEAD BUT YOU CAN KEEP YOUR BINS! Good news everyone! Well, by “good,” I mean “not horrible,” and by “everyone,” I mean Maui Meadows residents. Anyway, it turns out that Maui Mayor Alan Arakawa has decided that maybe his administration’s decision to ask 1,750 residents there (and in other parts of South Maui) who took part in the county’s “3-Can” curbside recycling test project to give up their beloved recycling bins may have been made in haste. See, 25 or so residents visited Arakawa on the afternoon Wednesday, Feb. 4. They took with them a petition containing the signatures of 2,000 or so residents asking for the county not to end curbside recycling. They also told Arakawa that residents would be willing to pay an annual fee to keep the program in place. How much of a fee residents would have to pay is a matter of controversy. County Environmental Management Director Kyle Ginoza told the Maui County Council that the program costs “approximately $80 per year per account. But an internal spreadsheet obtained by MauiTime pegs the cost at $43.91. County officials say the spreadsheet was merely a “draft” and “wasn’t complete;” Hana Steel, the recycling coordinator who helped create the spreadsheet is on paid administrative leave and wouldn’t comment about the spreadsheet. In any case, the curbside recycling program is still dead. That ended on Feb. 1. But the Arakawa Administration– which had warned that residents who didn’t surrender their bins could face fines or other sanctions–decided that they could keep their bins after all. Yay? “The request from the community was not unreasonable,” said Arakawa in a Feb. 5 news release. “We explained to them that the cost of the program was not something the county could just absorb. Also, it isn’t fair that all taxpayers pay for a service that one community benefitted from. But if

Overheard “You’re so handsome Elton John would need to write a song about you.” -Woman in Ka’anapali, Feb. 8

these residents are willing to pay for the actual costs of curbside recycling, I don’t see any reason why we can’t let them keep their cans while we get them some numbers.” What happens next is unknown. The county’s going to run some numbers. They might do another “pilot” project in another town. They will even ask the Maui County Council what they want! “We also have some time while our department goes over the data from the recycling pilot project,” said Managing Director Keith Regan in the news release. “Once we crunch that data we’ll be able to have a better idea of what our options are. We may be able to offer the pilot project participants the same service for a fee, or maybe we have to take this pilot project to another neighborhood such as Kahului, where we have a lot of extended families in one home, to see how curbside recycling works there. Or possibly we may propose a countywide curbside recycling service that we can present to council. There might even be a

So last week my email inbox at work brightened with a surprising message from the Maui Police Department. They sent me–and the rest of Maui’s media–a copy of their 2014 accounting of official police misconduct. The report, addressed to the Legislative Reference Bureau, is a summary of “all incidents and violations of Department Policies and Procedures which resulted in the suspension or discharge of Police Officers during the period from January 1, 2014 to December 21, 2014.” It’s a state-mandated annual report that all Hawaii police departments need to file with the Legislature. Like all such reports, it lacks names and identifying details concerning the incidents and officers involved. Many of these incidents have already been disclosed at Maui Police Commission hearings, which were then reported by The Maui News. But this is the first time that I know of that the annual report has been sent directly to the media. As is usually the case when communicating with the Maui Police Department, asking them why they decided to release this report to the media this year–an action they haven’t taken in previous years–led nowhere. Here’s the brief email exchange I had with Lt. William Juan, the Maui PD’s spokesman last week:

• “Unauthorized use of Department’s Confidential Funds” [Suspended one day and reassigned] • “Failed to appear for Court after after [sic] receiving a subpoena” [Suspended one day] • “Involved in a major auto accident involving excessive speeding” [Suspended five days] • “Failed to conduct a proper investigation and process evidence and submitted a false report” [Suspended 10 days] • “While off-duty, operated a vehicle under the influence and with a minor as a passenger” [Suspended 15 days]

possibility of a private-public partnership with this. The main thing is we have the data and now we need to propose some options.” Well, why didn’t the county just say so last month? Taking stock of the 3-Can project, assessing options and then letting the County Council have a say makes sense. Instead, county environmental management officials just said they were ending the project because of its costs (and that a future, as yet unbuilt waste reclamation facility would do even better at keeping recyclables out of our dwindling landfills). That led to Maui Meadows residents–who genuinely want to do the right thing–openly discussing withholding their recycling bins as an act of civil disobedience. While not a complete reversal, this new decision does recall the Arakawa Administration’s announcement back in March 2013 that the county would close its recycling centers because the “private sector” could pick up the slack. After residents protested, Arakawa announced that the centers would, in fact, stay open. ■ anthony@mauitime.com + @apignataro For more news articles, visit: mauitime.com/news

ARAKAWA WANTS MORE MONEY FOR KAHO‘OLAWE

COUNTY DOING STUDY ON MAUI’S CRAPPY INTERNET SPEEDS Acknowledging that Maui County residents are dealing with substandard internet browsing speeds, the County of Maui has hired Joel Ogren of the U.S. Navy-sponsored Applied Research Laboratory at the University of Hawaii to “evaluate, develop and recommend a preliminary telecommunications

video. We need to plan for this growth.” That’s a spot-on description of the trouble Maui’s facing. But given the fact that infrastructure improvements happen slower out here–remember, it took the State of Hawaii six years to widen Mokulele Highway from a two-lane highway to four lanes–it’s hard to take the following news release quote from Rasmussen seriously: “The holy grail is 1 Gigabit-persecond (GBPS). We should strive to bring that to every household in Maui County. Job diversification would flourish, and our sister islands of Molokai and Lanai would have a global advantage unlike any other rural, isolated area. We want to ask the community to think about what they would do with 1 GBPS?” Why am I imagining county residents getting those “holy grail” broadband speeds just as the rest of the world settles in with download speeds in excess of one terabyte a second? Anyway, the study should take about four months to complete, and will be posted on the county’s OED website when it’s done. According to county communications director Rod Antone, the contract for the study will cost $35,000 and was sole-source, meaning officials felt it didn’t need to be put out for bid.

It looks like the agency in charge of protecting and restoring Kaho‘olawe is all but bankrupt. Around for about 21 years now, the Kaho‘olawe Island Reserve Commission (KIRC) was tasked to get the island of Kaho‘olawe–largely wrecked by decades of U.S. Navy bombing and test detonations–back into some sort of sustainable shape. While KIRC and other volunteer organizations have done great work planting native flora and other ecological work, their money has slowly dwindled away. “The Kaho‘olawe island reserve commission is funded predominantly by a dwindling trust fund created in 1994 during the federal cleanup of unexploded ordnance on Kaho‘olawe,” states the text of the new bill HB 438. “Although it was a considerable amount, the federal appropriation totaling approximately $44,000,000 over a period of several years was not substantial enough to establish a sustainable endowment for the long-term restoration of Kaho‘olawe.” To make sure the KIRC doesn’t go away, the state Legislature is considering SB 867, SB 897 and HB 438, all of which would in some way appropriate funds for the KIRC. HB 438 would appropriate $6 million to the KIRC in fiscal year 20152016 and another $6 million the following year, while HB 897 just appropriates $6 million in 2017-2017. Senate Bill 867 is different–it earmarks 7.5 percent of the state conveyance tax to the Kaho’olawe rehabilitation trust fund. On Feb. 5, Maui Mayor Alan Arakawa’s office sent over a copy of his recent testimony in favor of all three bills. Here’s an excerpt of it: “I was able to travel to Kahoolawe last month to view the incredible work that the KIRC does every day–its Restora-

tion Program planting native shrubs and grasses to minimize erosion and restore native ecosystems, its Ocean Program monitoring marine species and the Island Reserve’s pristine waters, its Culture Program preserving archaeological sites and promoting traditional Hawaiian practices, and its Operational staff providing all kinds of logistical and maintenance support to these program efforts. The KIRC’s annual budget is less than $3 million; they manage and are steadily restoring an entire island reserve–a former bombing range with 45 square miles of land and 90 square miles of ocean–for less than $3 million per year; this has to be one of the most efficient government agencies in the state.” You know, it wasn’t that long ago that KIRC officials were talking up some pretty grand plans for the island. Back in the summer of 2008, I sat down with KIRC Executive Director Michael Naho‘opi‘i at the KIRC’s office in Wailuku. He told me KIRC’s plan was to be “self-sufficient” within five years (that would have been 2013). He also showed me plans for an elaborate two-story center in Kihei near the Boat Ramp that would be shaped like an octopus. It would have offices, an auditorium, museum and other features. “We want to be able to bring Kaho‘olawe to Maui,” he told me, though he admitted that he had no idea how much the proposed center would cost.

strategy for Maui County,” according to a Feb. 2 county news release. “We see broadband access as one of the most critical barriers to diversifying our economy,” said Teena Rasmussen, director of the county’s Office of Economic Development (OED), in the news release. “We are already 2500 miles from the mainland US, and now we are isolating ourselves even more by falling behind in the telecommunications arena. We see this study as a first step to creating a comprehensive action plan on how we can solve this.” The news release quotes a recent Pacific Business News article listing Wailuku download speeds at “17.32 Mega Bits Per Second.” Yeah, I’m wondering if there’s maybe another Wailuku in Hawaii, because our office is at the corner of Market and Main and the morning I got the release I took the official Hawaii Broadband Initiative Speed Test and it clocked in at a remarkably mediocre 7.53 mbps (Hong Kong, the news release helpfully pointed out, has broadband speeds in excess of 106 mpbs). Regardless of whether Wailuku is seeing 17 mbps or seven, the federal government doesn’t even consider it “broadband” anymore. On Jan. 29, The Verge

Definitely not "broadband"

reported that the Federal Communications Commission now says broadband starts at a download speed of 25 mbps. According to that story, just 13.1 percent of US households don’t have access to 25 mbps download speeds. “We are always working to be less reliant on tourism,” said Mayor Arakawa in the Feb. 2 news release. “Making sure we have high quality, accessible broadband available for our community is critical. Broadband is needed for everything from banking, job searching, shopping and an ever-increasing demand for streaming

“In this case because the University of Hawaii through Joel Ogren had already completed a comprehensive study for Department of Business, Economic Development and Tourism (DBEDT) on broadband landing sites, they felt he was the best option,” Antone said in a Feb. 3 email. “Anyone else would have to recreate the database that UH had already done, at taxpayer expense.”■ editor@mauitime.com For more news articles, visit: mauitime.com/news

A miles-long traffic jam on Interstate 20 near Tuscaloosa, Alabama, on Jan. 25 and on into the next morning was caused by an 18-wheeler that jackknifed and overturned when the 57-year-old driver took his hands off the wheel to pull out a tooth with his fingers. Efforts to haul the truck from the roadside required an hours-long detour of traffic off of the interstate. (The driver’s mission was successful; he had the tooth in his pocket when rescued.)

UNCLEAR ON THE CONCEPT Luis Moreno Jr., 26, was pursued by police in Fort Lee, New Jersey, after he entered the carpool lane approaching the George Washington Bridge in January because he appeared to be alone in his SUV. After ignoring several signals to pull over, he finally stopped and, when informed of his offense, told the officer, “I have two passengers in the back” and rolled down a window to show them (in the vehicle’s third row), apparently satisfying the officer. However, as Moreno pulled away, one passenger began screaming and banging on the back door. Moreno sped off with his hostages, but was subsequently stopped again and charged with kidnapping and criminal restraint (but no HOV violation!).

Briton Roberto Collins, 51, was sentenced to 13 months in jail by Manchester Crown Court in January after being caught standing on a ladies’ room toilet and peering into the next stall. He told police he stood up only to better scratch an itch and was in the ladies’ room only because, wearing faulty glasses, he thought it was the men’s room. And Scotsman Dean Gilmartin, 25, actually persuaded a judge at Perth Sheriff Court in January of his “innocence”–that he might not have been masturbating at the front window of his home. He admitted he was nude (changing clothes), but pointed out that he plays musical instruments and was probably just picking out tunes on his ukulele (rather than “holding” his genitals and moving “side to side,” as a neighbor had charged).

NOVEL DEFENSE Poet Les Merton, 70, denied in January that he had ever abused children, but had a more difficult time explaining why a child-porn website had his credit card information. Merton holds the appointed title of Cornish bard in Cornwall, England, and is the author of the Official Encyclopedia of the Cornish Pasty. He explained in Truro Crown Court that he must have mindlessly entered his credit card information while researching the 19th-century Russian figure Rasputin.

“Entomologists are not like other people,” Wired.com reported in January, revealing that two of them had “proudly” issued “birth”

announcements for the “Human bot fly” whose larvae one had let gestate beneath his skin for two months. Scientist Piotr Naskrecki and photographer Gil Wizen had been inadvertently bitten while on assignment in Belize and decided the egg-laying “attack” on a human was an important opportunity for research. After all, Naskrecki said, he had never seen an adult bot fly “crawl out” of its host.

NEW WORLD ORDER Last year in Middle East school markets, the worldwide publishing giant HarperCollins was selling a popular atlas whose maps pretended there was no such country as Israel. The space that is Israel was merged into Jordan, Syria and Gaza. The company said it was merely honoring “local preferences” of potential atlas purchasers, whom HarperCollins presumed were Arabs wishing that Israel did not exist. (In January 2015, the company finally changed course, publicly “regretted” its decision and recalled all existing stock.)

KINDER KLAN? Montanan John Abarr told the Great Falls Tribune in November that his Rocky Mountain Knights of the Ku Klux Klan opposes the “new world order” pushing a “one government” system on the planet– but also stands against discrimination based on race, religion or sexual orientation. “White supremacy is the old Klan,” he said. “This is the new Klan” (except that, he said, robes and hoods will still be required, along with “secret rituals”).

THE NEW NORMAL In January, Mittens the kitten and Charcoal the Chihuahua mix made news as hermaphrodites whose veterinarians had recommended which gender the sinceadopted strays should retain. Mittens, of the town of Heart’s Desire, Newfoundland, was scheduled for “gender assignment” surgery to become solely male, and Charcoal, of Boise, Idaho, is recovering from mid-January surgery to leave her exclusively female. News reports did not disclose why “male” was chosen for Mittens, but the doctor said correcting Charcoal’s pre-surgery problem, urination, would be less stressful as a female.

FINE POINTS OF THE LAW The Supreme Court of Canada turned down Joel Ifergan’s appeal in January, leaving his winning-number lottery ticket from 2008 worthless. He had bought two tickets seconds before the 9pm deadline on May 23 of that year, and the tickets had started to print on the store’s machine, but only the first one carried that day’s date. By the time the second one–with winning numbers for the $27 million jackpot–had gone through the lottery’s central computer system and back to the store’s printer, the program had already kicked over to the following day and to the next week’s drawing. ■

Now when you ask these ﬁve Maui wahine about their hard work, they’re quick to sugar coat it, saying it all pales before the happiness they get from seeing people smiling after taking a bite. Here, in their own words, are the tales of how these ﬁve women became Maui’s Sugar Mamas.

positive reaction are the moments that are most validating. The feedback is sincere, honest and in the moment. I have not taken any baking classes. I am selftaught so to get people who know food and love food to like the cookies I have hand-rolled from love is the moment that’s most rewarding. I just love cookies and making people happy. I am able to do that through their tummys. My favorite thing to do is come up with new flavors. I don’t get as much enjoyment making the same cookies. The challenge with that is that I can only fit 32 varieties in our cookie cases. We’re constantly rotating out to make room for new flavors. People try a new cookie and then they will ask for it for months later after it has been rotated out. I keep trying to scale back the flavors, but it’s just hard to do.

and baking. I now farm cacao as well. Our farm is in Haiku, on the oceanside. We do two two-and-a-half hour tours a week. It’s only by reservation–the farm is not open for walk-ins. People learn about cacao tree culture, harvest, fermentation of the beans and how they’re roasted and made into chocolate. We do hands-on grinding of beans to chocolate. We then taste seven chocolates–four internationally acclaimed and three grown in Hawaii. It’s structured like a wine tasting. Our orchard will bear its first fruit next year. Typically it takes three to four years from seed to fruit. I have 200 cacao trees plus the various fruits and spices we use in production of chocolate. My goal is 1,200 trees. We currently use chocolate made from fine flavor beans from Latin American countries as opposed to child slave labor beans sourced from Africa. Eighty percent of the world’s chocolate comes from Africa. We use fair or direct trade-sourced chocolate that is ethical. Our own farm grown production will go into specialty bars, not confections. We also have an adopt-a-tree program that helps to support the Heirloom Cacao Initiative of the Fine Chocolate Industry Association. Our first bar production will go to our adopt sponsors. I specialize in tropical truffles made with chocolate cream, and/or coconut milk, butter, fresh fruit purees and spices. Fresh, quality ingredients are a must. I draw inspiration from cocktail mixology. It starts with good flavors. Then you must find the right chocolate to compliment those fla-

vors. Lots of tasting... oh, darn! When I was a diamond buyer for a large jewelry manufacturer, I got hooked on fine chocolate while working in Belgium. I have a bed and breakfast in Volcano on the Big Island–I wanted a room amenity and my Belgian chocolate experience came back to me. My biggest challenges are the Maui county permits. I unexpectedly lost my commercial kitchen recently and can’t find a place to work that satisfies the upgraded code for wastewater and has the A/C and power needed for my specialized equipment. I’ve been working on a building permit for my own building for two years now. This state is small-business unfriendly–they don’t care about the obstacles that small business have or how our unique business makes this island special. I love that I get to use my creativity and make people happy with my chocolates. You can find us at our gourmet chocolate shop Sweet Paradise Chocolate at 34 Wailea Gateway Place or online at Sweetparadisechocolate.com.

Madame DonutDonut Dynamite! I mostly worked at high-end, fine dining establishments. It was great striving for perfection, and I enjoyed the “push” of fellow ambitious chefs. And then I realized that while I enjoy fine dining, many people I know were intimidated by such establishments. Continued on page 13

he was in the ICU at Maui Memorial Medical Center (MMMC). I learned that week that our nurses pay for their own uniforms, training textbooks and even jackets to keep them warm working the ward. I know first-hand as a teacher working for the state that monies come with a lot of paperwork and protocols that can be cumbersome, to say the least. I wanted to be able to hand over a check with no strings attached. I originally worked with their fundraising department but got discouraged. I set up a booth at Wailuku First Friday, really without the hospital’s permission or approval, and put up a hand-made sign that said all proceeds go to the MMMC ICU nurses and put a few cookies on plate. It was pretty low key. I had a few dozen cookies of two varieties, not even wrapped, just sitting out there on a plate. I committed to four months of the Wailuku Town Parties. In those four nights I raised about $600. I bypassed the hospital admin and fundraising department, walked up to the ICU nurses stations unannounced and said here is $600 with no strings

I was given a cookie on the first day of my freshman year of high school by my English teacher, Mrs. Merrick. I thought that was really good. I asked her for the recipe and then just kept baking them and giving them out to friends and teachers from there on out. I was a misfit in high school and very shy. It was also a way for me to connect with people. When I saw the happy reaction they had when they ate them, I just kept baking. I never thought I would be turning this into a business. I’m a school teacher and working with the youth has always been my passion. I baked as a hobby. My dad passed away in 2012. He was one of my best friends. I talked to him everyday and he lived in the house next door. His death was sudden and for me to celebrate his life and try to cope with the loss, I decided to raise money for the nurses that helped him the week

attached. Spend it however you want. I dont care how you do it. I don’t need a report and I don’t need any receipt. Just spend it. I cried the whole way out the door because those were the same doors I walked out when I said goodbye to my father. I had not been back since. It was closure for my grieving and healing and it felt good to do something in his honor. One of the nurses said she remembered my dad and gave me a hug. I remember vividly who she was and the impact that hug had on me. I just like making people happy with food. I joke that I must have been Italian in a former life. The moments I live for are when someone bites into the cookie and has a genuine reaction of satisfaction. When we started doing Costco, I sampled the cookies along with our cookie crew. Many of the tourists that come through did not know I was the owner and thought I was a demo worker sampling food. I got to see first-hand the reaction of first-time cookie customers when they sample the food. Seeing that

Continued from page 11

To me, food is the center of most gatherings–of life, love and pleasure. I didn’t want non-foodie people to be alienated from great food. I wanted to simplify my approach and move away from an elitist food environment. Enter donuts! Most everyone loves them and has some sort of sweet childish nostalgia attached to them. Donuts don’t need an introduction and they make people smile almost instantaneously. I’m very dough-oriented versus topping-focused. When I develop a donut, I think from the ground up. I don’t make a generic dough and just change the topping and call it a whole new donut. My Bacon Maple Donut already has bacon and apples in the dough so I can’t cheat and just put Vanilla Glaze on it and call it a Vanilla Donut. My Maui Vanilla Bean Donut is rich with locally grown vanilla beans in the dough and glaze. I even grind my own vanilla powder to dust on top. The Brown Butter Donut has browned butter in the dough and in the crumble topping. I think the dough must reflect the donut flavor. After all, the ratio of dough to topping is greater than vice versa. Most of our Donut Dynamite! donuts are made with brioche dough. I love brioche. It tastes superior than most yeast donut doughs and stays fresh longer. We also make cake style donuts, like our Fry-to-Order MiNi Donuts. I focus on brioche, hardly anyone out there is doing it. It’s a more challenging, time-consuming and expensive dough. But I don’t care–I love the end product. I also make what I call the “Black Market” KroNut, as the name Cronut is trademarked. Funny, because I’ve been frying croissants for years before the croissant donuts were trendy. Croissants are my other favorite dough, so it’s fun to make it into a donut. I don’t consider my donuts to be junk food. There’s soooo much love, tears and sleepless nights attached to them. They are handcrafted. Each one is unique. My donuts take a lot of work to make. Long hours. Every component is handmade. I even make my own sprinkles. I suppose I can make it easier by buying cookies and crushing them on top instead of baking them from scratch. But I can’t make myself do it. I guess in a way I make my own life difficult. But I think it’s worth it. It’s challenging, but I tend to enjoy a challenge. They’re made with yeast which could be temperamental so

I feel I have to respect my relationship with my donuts. I start by making them with good intentions and much joy. And I think my customers taste the love. I fill them with so much of it! I actually got my degree in kinesiology with a focus on exercise science and human movement. Plus, I was a competitive Olympic style weightlifter many years ago, so I think that helped give me a good physically healthy base. I’m a big believer in balance. I dislike the strictness of some so-called “healthy lifestyles.” I love life! I take my pleasure seriously! I allow myself to indulge but I pay for it by making sure I exercise. Since I’m too busy to spend any time at the gym lately, I always incorporate movement into my everyday life. I take the stairs before the elevator. I plank while reading my Facebook Newsfeed. I can’t focus? I get down and do a few push-ups. Movement is key. Oh, and I count rolling and kneading dough as exercise. I earn my donuts, for sure! We can be found at the Maui Swap Meet every Saturday from 7am to 1pm and Kihei Fourth Fridays from 6-9pm. We also post up our Donut Mobile at the Kahului Harbor by the Boat Landing on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings 7-10am. Plus, Kula Cafe at the Grand Wailea Resort carries our gourmet donuts every day. Also they sell them a few days a week at the newly opened Kupu Cafe of Kula Fields.

Lori Steer Maui Macaroons & More Market Street, Wailuku Many years ago, I found a coconut macaroon recipe. I made it, tweaked and retweaked until it became the little morsel of perfection it is today. As a Jewish child in a suburban Chicago area, we celebrated Passover, a holiday where we were not permitted to eat any foods with leavening. Coconut macaroons became the cookie of Passover. The store-bought canned variety left much to be desired. My macaroons are chewy, sweet coconut mixed with a blend of sugar, milk and vanilla for a tasty base. I add a variety of local fruits, chocolate, or nuts to come up with almost 100 different twists on the classic coconut macaroon. They are naturally gluten-free. I love watching people develop their

Jennifer Frankel

addiction to my Maui Macaroons. People who know my stuff but not my name call me the “Macaroon Girl.” I convert the selfprofessed non-coconut lovers to macaroon addicts all the time. When I get to see the reaction on people’s faces when they try one for the first time, it’s worth it. I’m growing my business by word of mouth, but there are challenges. The cost and expense of finding a commercial kitchen is one of them. Lokahi Pacific has a great program with a shared certified kitchen, which helps small business. The hours still add up and space and time there is limited. Just the physicality of the job worries me, too. How long will I be able to lift heavy pans of batter, standing on my feet baking for 10 hours at a time? Shipping costs of packaging is also a factor. Customers always asked me about opening a shop, but I knew when I did it that I would need help with rent. So I decided to combine efforts to come up with a space that could be as unique as having our own store, but diversified enough to house many local made products. I never thought I would be making a living selling macaroons! I moved to Maui seven years ago and decided to work for myself. My dentist and my auto service advisor told me I should sell my macaroons. I tried it and Maui is still buying. Thank you Maui!

Jennifer Frankel Hawaii Tropical Ice, Paradice Tropical Ice

Lori Steer

Tropical Ice is my own creation. It’s a dairy-free, gluten-free Italian ice and sorbet I make with real fruit. It’s a twist to the Italian ice I grew up eating in the summertime because it’s from paradise! It’s sorbet the island way! We first had the idea of manufacturing on Maui in 1996 when we came here on our honeymoon. We were introduced to shave ice and found it very similar to Italian ice. Yet, it was missing something. That something, to us, was real fruit. We wanted to introduce it back then, but weren’t in the position to do so. We were only two years into a new fire equipment business back in the mainland. The timing just wasn’t right. So we built our business over the next 12 years and sold it with the intention to live our dream on Maui. We packed up our family and headed

west in a rented Winnebago, stopped at Disneyland and relocated on Maui. One of my favorite things about being in the sweets business is the positive reactions we get from people who taste Tropical Ice for the first time. Especially our Li Hing Mui Pineapple! That’s the one that’s going to make me famous! It’s unlike anything else and really appeals to the many Li Hing Mui lovers out there. To give you an idea, I sell three times as much Li Hing Pineapple than most any other flavor. Except strawberry–that’s number two. One of my biggest challenges, if not the biggest, would be shipping, both to and from Maui. We sell approximately 1,200 quarts at a roadshow at Costco. We also ship about 100 gallons of Tropical Ice, from which we give samples. Most of my sales are at various Costco locations on Oahu. Frozen cargo through Young Brothers isn’t cheap. Distribution to the outer islands is another huge challenge when manufacturing on Maui. In order to ship my product to the outer islands, it must first go through Oahu. It’s frustrating and expensive. Nevertheless, we’re blessed to have the opportunity to work with Costco and look forward to an expansion of our manufacturing over on Oahu. Once this happens, we’ll be working with a distributor to service the various Safeway, Times, Foodland locations etc. on each of the islands. Packaging is the most difficult and by far one of the most expensive parts of our business. Shipping from the mainland is expensive and takes quite a while. Right now, you can purchase our Tropical Ice at Island Grocery, Pukalani Superette, Kula Marketplace by Kula Lodge, Zack’s in the Five Palms Resort and, of course, Costco. Also, look for us at major events such as Ag Fest, Maui Fair, Whale Day and First Friday in Wailuku. Costco only carries our product during our four-day road shows each month. We demo and sell our Tropical Ice at a different location each week. Anywhere from two to three each month, and primarily on Oahu. We manufacture in a commercial kitchen in Wailuku and our ingredients are from everywhere. We locally source when feasible. However, with the large volume we produce, quality control is important. Seasonal local fruits are difficult to come by all year round. ■ jen@mauitime.com + @jenrusso For more foodie coverage, visit: mauitime.com/food-drink

A&E

by Jen Russo

‘Because Beethoven Was Def’ Talking to the guys behind The Phys Ed Rentals about why they exist I’ve always strived to make tones and bass lines that are both rhythm and melody combined. That’s why when I hear a guy like Mike Watt (Minutemen, fIREHOSE) play, I want to stop what I’m doing, grab my bass and join in on the fun.

becomes instrumental or not, it’s first recorded as instrumental. When we listen back to them, we end up making a decision on whether or not to drop lyrics on it. So writing instrumentals isn’t really any more difficult.

TA: Mario Lanza is my guy.

AS: Some of the songs we write naturally have enough going on that lyrics wouldn’t improve the song. Plus, it’s hard as hell to sing in key/time and play the stuff we’re playing.

MT: How does going instrumental ﬁt in? I get the Beastie Boy’s The Mix Up reference, but there are other forces at work here, right?

PHOTO BY KATIE SAY

TA: We wanted this album to be all about the music. Our first album, There’s No ‘I’ in Rentals, had a few instrumentals and since we play all the instruments, why not make instrumental album? AS: I can play my parents our instrumental album and stay relatively clear of confrontation. MT: How long have you been playing as TPER? How many album releases have there been?

Trevor Arnholt and Aydin Say

he Phys Ed Rentals consists of two guys: Trevor Arnholt and Aydin Say. It’s an extracurricular activity for the two, who keep busy with other artsy stuff during the day. This Friday, they’re dropping their latest release, called InstruRentals. It’s an allinstrumental disk with 24 tracks of their own flavor of hip-hop, funk, punk and rock. Some of the songs reference their high school experiences: “1st Team, All Dumb,” “Metal Lunch Box,” “Hazing” and “Everyone’s Packing (A Lunch).” Others are just teenage hormone-inspired fun, like “Her Parents Left For The Weekend” and “Dick Of The Year.” They’re celebrating the new album this Friday the 13th at Paradise Grill in Ka‘anapali. The Lamonts, DJ’s Boomshot, Del Sol and Love, Chief Wrong Horse and Master of the Universe will be there, too (plus midnight bacon specials!). Extra points if you show up dressed as Cupid or a cheerleader. I sat down with them recently to find out more about why they exist:

MAUITIME: Where did the name Phys. Ed. Rentals come from? AYDIN SAY: Trevor and I have been playing music together since 2005 and sometime, I’m guessing around 2007, we were playing in a hip-hop project with a couple of friends. We were taking a break during a practice and searching for a name; and for no reason, I blurted out “Phys. Ed. Rentals.” Trevor and I were the only two that liked it at the time, but I didn’t think much of it. So when he and I decided to create our own band months later, Trevor reminded me of “Phys. Ed. Rentals” and it stuck. It’s given us a wealth of inspiration in creating songs and themes that basically

anyone over the age of 14 can relate to. MT: Who does what in the band? TREVOR ARNHOLT: I play all the drums and horns. We share duties on the guitars, keyboards and singing (I’m using the term liberally). I play kazoo and clarinet, but only for sorority mixers. Aydin is the bassist on all of our tracks. MT: Between Arnholt doing all the heavy lifting and Say playing the bass, both of you do a lot of other things, like work a day job, and other projects. Where does the band ﬁt in?

TA: In another time, in another space where rock was forged. AS: I think what he’s saying is [we started] somewhere in early 2009. We’ve got two full-length albums, a couple singles and a third full-length in the works. MT: Is it easier to write and play music with no words? I mean, are you shorting your fans with a lack of clever lyrics? TA: Generally, regardless of if the song

TA: We’ve got a spinoff band called The Lamonts that has a devoted singer (Casey Piquet) and drummers (Adam Moor and Scott Frank). It frees me up to sing and play horns. The Lamonts will be performing after Phys. Ed. Rentals for our CD release party. ■ jen@mauitime.com + @jenrusso For more entertainment articles, visit: mauitime.com/entertainment

TA: It’s crammed somewhere between work and sleep. MT: There’s a lot of hip-hop and funk inﬂuence in your music. You guys do realize that you’re two gangly white guys on a tropical island, right? TA: It’s because Beethoven was def. MT: [...] AS: We’re both products of what I would consider the golden age of hip-hop (late ‘80s/early ‘90s) and we both have a common love for heavy funk bands like Fishbone and Urban Dance Squad. As a musician, both funk and hip-hop are super fun and challenging to perform. Mix in punk influences like Fugazi and Bad Brains and you’ve got the recipe for our stylings. MT: Well then, name some of your music heroes. AS: I’ve always loved the Beastie Boys and dig how they bridged music genres. It’s pretty obvious how they’ve influenced our band. As a bassist, I have always been into the guys that kept the bass moving and percussive. Norwood Fisher (Fishbone), Geddy Lee (Rush), Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers) are just a few to influence me.

Film

by Barry Wurst II

Space Maid of Destiny The only hope for The Wachowskis’ ‘Jupiter Ascending’ is as a cult movie ★★★★★ Rated PG-13 / 127 Min.

t was the jacket that pushed me over the edge. Sure, I had a silly, bemused grin on my face for the first half of Jupiter Ascending, but I kept from laughing outright as long as I could. At least, until I saw that jacket. The set-up alone is a stitch: Mila Kunis plays Jupiter Jones, an orphan raised by Russian immigrants who cleans toilets but holds the key to Earth’s survival. It’s Maid in Manhattan meets Star Wars, with Channing Tatum as a Spock-eared, dog/ human hybrid who wears flying shoes and comes to Jupiter’s rescue. The insanely overstuffed plot, with its mismatched pile of plot strands, supporting characters and oddball back stories leaves a lot of questions. Why do the aliens almost never use their cloaking devices and mostly attack out in the open? Could an alien abduction really be photographed by a camera phone? Would a Maxi pad really aide a wounded alien? I finally lost it at the sight of the giant, evil,

talking lizards with gargoyle wings and– wait for it–aviator jackets. Why? I suppose it gets cold in outer space. This is my kind of flop–a charmingly bad, un-cynical personal work by the Wachowskis, who are overreaching here by light years. The only product this gigantic production is selling is itself, an earnest quality that makes it all the more adorable and easier to digest than most cinematic turkeys. While it lacks the ambition and intensity of their admirable failure Cloud Atlas, it’s also less heavy-handed, easier to digest and more fun to endure. Had the two leads given electric, charismatic performances, this might have worked. Instead, we have two dead-in-thewater turns by leads who can’t rise above the nonsense. Kunis looks disinterested and sleepy, as though she were half engaged and waiting for Ashton Kutcher to drive her home. Tatum has more to do but, like his co-star, never taps into the opportunities for humor or offbeat interpretation present in his character. He and Kunis are better at aiding a strong performer, not carrying a movie on their own. The low-watt chemistry between Keanu Reeves and Carrie Anne-

Seriously, Mars has the worst bathrooms in the universe

Moss in the first Matrix had more heat. Eddie Redmayne gives a ridiculous turn as a gold neck brace-wearing villain, who alternately whispers and shouts his dialogue. The Oscar-nominee is going for Darth Vader but comes closest to Joseph Gordon-Levitt in G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. Stephen Hawking would not be impressed with Redmayne’s work in this movie. The blend of CGI and live action footage is reliably stunning and beautiful, as you’d expect from the Wachowski’s–particularly during a pursuit above Chicago (the film’s best sequence). Their Star Trek-like universe, with varying aliens species, makes for a lot of absurd costumes and makeup effects. The sets often resemble the inside of the gaudiest Las Vegas chandelier, both grand and tacky. Their overall intent of blending an idiosyncratic love story with an all-out

space opera doesn’t work. The Fifth Element did this all better, managing to be weird, personal and touching–qualities that Jupiter Ascending never comes close to mimicking. There is hope for the movie, which will no doubt become a cult item. Movies this sincere, ridiculous and entertainingly bad will always find devotees, who whine “c’mon, it’s not that bad” and declare it a “cult classic.” I doubt I’ll ever attend a midnight screening of this movie in costume, but will admit to feeling some affection for a movie so bold. The Matrix and Bound displayed how the Wachowskis can craft a groundbreaking narrative and create a love letter to the movies. Here, their heart is in the right place, but their vision is unfocused. Still, it does have a giant, talking lizard with gargoyle wings in an aviator jacket. ■

Horoscope

Sign Language AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18)

If anyone has hope of overcoming the bullshit True Love Programming we’ve all been trained to believe in, and live by, it’s you, Aquarius. What are the solid elements of partnership, the ones that can outlast the fickle ebb and flow of sexual desire and romantic passion? And how to find the partners who are willing to meet you there, sex or no sex? It’s a tricky, slippery slope, and whether or not you ascribe to this path or philosophy in the long-term, I’m confident that by spending this week paying attention to questions like these, you’ll get at least one or two gems that will improve every relationship you have, from here on out.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)

With the Sun swimming in the glimmering waters of the Piscean Sea you’re even more inclined than usual to relish the glamour of things you can’t understand, to be drawn to mystery, and surrender to the unknowable. Just one warning or promise, before you wade in over your head: the places you’re wanting to go will probably be good for you, but may also require a huge shift of personal paradigm. What I mean is, for months or years now you’ve kept the royal coin of your kingdom POWER side up. If you truly want to venture into these new territories, it’s time to flip that coin. The other side, of course, says: LETTING GO. VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20)

I want to remind you, with love, of the power of your internal contradictions, which you more often let baffle you than enlighten you. This coming year, keep in mind that when you’re at your worst, you’re also, perversely, closer to being at your best than at most other times. When you’re experiencing one of life’s darker moments, the veil between you and serenity is actually thinner than usual. Put it this way—the deep hole you’re in at those moments is actually the hollow interior of a mountain on the other side of your inner planet. Dig through and you’ll be on top your world again. ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)

The evening news is all about fear. Start noticing that their nightly message is a litany of new things for you to worry about or be afraid of. The vast majority of these things will never happen to you, and fretting won’t make them less likely in any case. Cut the newscast—and anything else that adds to the sum total of your fears—from your psychic diet. Make absolute fearlessness your goal. Anything that doesn’t fall under the lean guideline of “reasonable caution” is health-destroying mental fat, so eliminate it. Then go have fun, because what else is left to do?

Don’t be too zealous about guarding your personal space this week. Astrological influences indicate you’re going to have to just deal with elbows in your side on the subway or unwelcome hangers-on at the office or kids in leech mode, or go quite mad trying to fend them all off. Hey, it’s inconvenient, but it could be worse. People want and need to be close to you; it’s unfortunate that it’s closer than you’d like, but you have to admit it’s still better than everyone giving you a wide berth and not approaching you at all. In other words, try to see it this way: a little too much is better than none at all.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)

You’re a hippo in a deliciously cool mud wallow. That’s not some weird commentary on your weight; I’m referring to your state of mind. You have immense reasons to be content, comfortable, at ease. No one’s going to mess with you right now, and you’ve got everything you need at hand. So why wander from the wallow? You’ll be missing something soon enough, and have to return to the hunt, or the search, or a familiar state of longing. Why go there prematurely? Enjoy what you’ve got, and don’t pollute it with the greed of wanting more. Got it, Gemini? It’s quite simple. Just wallow. CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)

Like the other water signs, you’re blessed with seven secret senses that the rest of us can only guess at. You’ll need to rely on them, especially the equivalent of your emotional sonar and radar, since the dangers and opportunities swimming past you through the aether are invisible to the naked eye, disguised as people you’d never notice, let alone bat a flirtatious eyelash at. Trust the fluttery sensations at the edges of sight and under your skin. This week, they’re what’ll keep you safe.

FABULOUS FEBRUARY

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)

Have you lost hope? Don’t let those arguments convince you that to persist now would be like throwing tons of time and energy into a black hole from which nothing will ever, ever emerge. But fighting it head-on would also be a mistake. There’s only one way to move through the powerful gravity of these insanely heavy thoughts—surrender to them, but keep a tight grip on the psychic-silk dragline to your determination and hope. Say: “You’re right. This will probably all end in tragedy. But I’m going for it anyway, full-on, in case there’s a chance it won’t.” That chance does exist—but only if you believe in it.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20)

The smoky lenses of your perception have steadily darkened all winter, leaving your world shrouded in layers of frigid cynicism. Now, with spring imminent, the load of doubt weighing you down will melt, giving you the chance to send forth new shoots, and new branches and new leaves, ready to soak up sunlight, love, and the other things that nurture you. They’re also able to generate buds which will, in time, burst open abundantly, into exotic blooms the likes of which you’ve never seen before, let alone produced. But we’re getting ahead of ourselves. This week, find your neglected hope and start nurturing it. When the glacier pinning you evaporates in the coming weeks, I want you to be ready to explode with new growth and innocence.

QUIZ understood

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)

Two key parts of the Scorpionic diet are stomach butterflies and the kind of hackle-raising shivers you get when you’re terrified and walking into a haunted moonlit graveyard, or a new love, or the end of a beloved chapter of your life. Unfortunately, lately you’ve been starving. You’re practically wasting away. Well, Scorpio, it’s your own fault. You’ve been passing the seedy alleys and dark hearts that thrill and deliciously devastate you. This week, start exploring derelict places, and tempting yourself with forbidden fruits. Whether or not you actually find any hidden treasure or eat any exotic produce, you’ll have cured, finally, your spiritual anorexia.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)

Obsession. It’s a mental trip you Sags are all but immune to, at least compared to most of the other signs. But when it strikes you, it’s just as intense as it is for those single-minded Aries or nervous Virgos. You need the sun you’re drawn to. You crave its warmth and beneficence. But you also need some protection from it, or you’ll go blind with longing. So take a careful step back, don some shades, slather on some psychic sunscreen, and go bask in deliciousness, instead of frying in ridiculousness. CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19)

This week, you’ve got an amazing opportunity to set up your next seven steps in any direction, and a reasonable assurance that all will conform exactly to design. Seven steps may not seem like much to most people, but you and I know that your ability to accurately plot into the future has been extremely limited lately, so more than a half dozen stages of a plan going precisely right is an incredible luxury. Recent distractions have made you fall behind the schedule you created for yourself at the beginning of the year. Now’s your chance to catch up and get back on track. Don’t waste it.
