Best of Maui Unlike certain presidential elections which shall remain nameless, the annual MauiTime Best of Maui readers’ poll is very democratic. Readers fill out their ballots, then we count the ballots. Whoever gets the most votes wins the election! What’s so difficult about that? But we digress. In the following pages, you’ll find who our readers decided makes the best sushi, hosts the greatest karaoke, offers the finest burritos, manufactures the prettiest jewelry and so on. Maui is an extremely diverse place, full of vibrant color and sound and people who share cultural traditions from all over the world. While it’s not always as peaceful or serene as the tourist brochures make it out to be–no place inhabited by people ever is–the island has a great deal to offer everyone. So thank you, readers, for telling us what you like best about Maui. While putting together the issue was difficult (small staff, vastly increased page count and it required us to do basic math), we couldn’t have done it without you.

BEST STATE BLUNDER BEST POLITICAL SCANDAL LC NEPOTISM This has been a scandal at the Maui County Department of Liquor Control for as long as I’ve lived on Maui, and it goes back much further than that. Back in 2003, when I first started reported on the LC, I was astonished to find that then-LC Director Frank Silva employed two of his sons in the department, though to be fair there was at least one level of management between them. Today, current LC Director Glenn Mukai and his daughter Karilee Yoshizawa, a supervising investigator, work out of the same office (though once again, one level of management separates them). It’s nice of our readers to notice this, and recognize it as a LC NEPOTISM 16% problem, but honestly, ARAKAWA’S SACRED ROCKS 9% it’s nothing remotely RUSSIA MEDDLING IN ELECTION 8% new. (AP)

BEST PUBLIC RESTROOM
ALAN ARAKAWA
KAMAOLE II
Very interesting choice, readers–especially given all that Maui Mayor Alan Arakawa has done in the past year. He signed a ban on styrofoam food containers, called for an export on sand exports, repeatedly said “bullshit” during a lengthy County Council meeting he was chairing, supports the state committing to the principles of the Paris climate change accord, signed into law some very controversial changes in the county’s liquor laws (see BEST POLITICAL SCANDAL) and, of course, denounced “sacred rocks,” saying the 10 Commandments don’t allow them (though he did later apologize for the last ALAN ARAKAWA 24% thing). Oh, and he also announced ELLE COCHRAN 22% that he’s running for state Lieutenant Governor in 2018. (AP) ALIKA ATAY 8%
This might seem like a curious category but only when you really need a restroom do you appreciate its value. The Best Public Restroom, we say, is one that is conveniently located, clean, and in good working condition. Thank goodness for Kamaole Beach II and all its lovely, intimate, less populated park space–which means better access KAMAOLE II 8% to its throned stalls, and floors less likely LAHAINA HARBOR 5% to be covered in wet sand and gleeful nonchalance.

BEST SCARY PUBLIC FIGURE DONALD TRUMP BEST TEACHER MARIS VAN DER LEE Without all the teachers in the world, our civilization would be, well, in a very bad place. They teach us fundamental skills in the early stages of our lives that kickstart our education. Especially in early years, teachers can have profound influences on how a child develops (not that there’s already a ton of pressure on teachers, especially considering what we see on the news every night). For MauiTime readers, Maris Van Der Lee, a third grade teacher at Waihee MARIS VAN DER LEE 5% Elementary, exemplifies how we want SARA BUSH 4% our teachers to perform, and for that, SHANNON FIELDS EUSTACE 4% we thank her. (LK)
Well, this is no shock! Once again, the man with the orange face, tiny hands, clammy handshakes, Dementia symptoms, borderline Tourette’s Syndrome, potty mouth and affinity for Twitter and Diet Coke has won the scariest public figure award. MauiTime readers are the best! You guys are so smart, and really know how to pick the devil out of a room full of crooks, thieves, liars and possible human clones. I’d love to say that I hope he doesn’t win scariest figure for 2018, but I’m pretty DONALD TRUMP 49% sure this is a four-year term for him, unless of course Republicans GLENN MUKAI 32% finally get a clue and impeach him UNKNOWN 3% (yeah, right).

BEST COUNTY BLUNDER 24/7 LIQUOR SALES On the scale of blunders we’ve written about through the years, this is off the charts–not quite as bad as putting too few lifeboats on the Titanic, but certainly worse than the decision to add Cousin Oliver to The Brady Bunch. Seriously, everyone in the county has denounced the Liquor Commission’s secret rule change that suddenly allowed all stores in the county to sell alcohol 24 hours a day. Who asked for this? Certainly not the Maui PD, which has denounced the rule, or the many dozens of residents who testified against the rule change, after The Maui News discovered it after the fact (one resident, Madge Schaefer, is even suing the county over the change). But even a patronizing star chamber like the 24/7 LIQUOR SALES 8% Liquor Commission apparently has MOVING IAO SACRED ROCKS 7% limits, and on July 12 held a hearing to undo the rule change.

But his replacement, Officer David cially Wikoli, has proven more than adequate–especially given his difficult assignment. “His primary responsibility is to mitigate traffic congestion in Wailuku Town, and ensure that the area is ction monitored, regulated and enforced in conjunction with applicable traffic laws and ordinances,” states e the Maui PD’s 2015 annual report.

CODY YOUNG
The best place to swim on Maui for 2017 is Baby Beach! Now, is this the Baby Beach located on the west end of Baldwin Beach Park on Maui’s North Shore, or is this the Baby Beach in Lahaina? No matter. Both are winners to us, and you can’t go wrong at either of those stunning Maui beaches. Both of these Baby Beach locations are great for those enjoying a beach day with small kids. Protected by exposed reef, and being adorned with soft sand and calm waters are BABY BEACH 11% both akin to these awesome Maui swim spots.

LOCAL WATERWOMAN
Great choice. He’s from Makawao, went to King KeKaulike High and grew up surfing the North Shore. Selected for the Hawaii Surf Team, he’s exceeded expectations. His sponsors include Kazuma Surfboards, Quiksilver, Dakine, Arnette, Mokulele Airlines and Hi-Tech. In fact, Kazuma Surfboards has called Young “one of the most talented young surfers to ever come out of Maui” and that Kazuma founder Matt Kinoshita “believes that Cody will be the next ‘Dusty Payne.’” High praise indeed, but so far he’s delivered–in fact, last month he placed second in his shortboard division at the 2017 USA Surfing Championship.

BEST MALE GROM DYLAN SLOAN Readers voted Dylan Sloan the best grom in 2016, and they still agree with that assessment this year. He’s already placed high in or won a series of contests, including a fourth place finish in the Boys 9-10 shortboard division and fifth place in the Boys longboard division at the Pohai Na Keiki Nalu at Launiupoko in January. “The future is very bright for this grom,” we said last year, and it’s still DYLAN SLOAN 24% very true.

BEST FEMALE GROM ERIN BROOKS Because MauiTime readers more or less split their votes for best grom between Sloan and Erin Brooks, we decided that it was only fair to split the category into male and female groms, which we’ll make official on next year’s ballot. That being said, it’s clear why Brooks is so popular with MauiTime readers. And she doesn’t limit herself to surfing waves, either.

Horoscope
Sign Language CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)
The worst thing that could happen right now is if you accepted your necessarily narrow and limited view of reality as the big picture. In that scenario, you’d probably feel that you had few or no choices, instead of recalling that the world is in fact rife with possibility. There are so many things you could do, so many different facets of life you could access. You might simply have to practice first remembering that they exist, then open yourself to them. This week, please make that your number one goal and pursue it diligently and relentlessly. LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)
The next two weeks are a brilliant time to try to bring some project, idea, or personal goal to fruition and fulfillment. Can you possibly swing the timing? I know it’s short notice, but I think it’s still possible to get your shit together, if you try. See that mile marker up ahead? The one you’ve been headed towards for a while now? Accelerate. Pedal to the metal, baby. See if you can reach it before the next big fat round full moon. If you succeed, the light it sheds is likely to make the route beyond that intermediary goal incredibly, excitingly clear. VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)
What would you tell someone whose plan to lose weight involves eliminating cheesecake, and nothing else? Hopefully, you’d mention that they’re sadly deluding themselves. Darling, that’s what I’m here to do for you. Your goal may have nothing to do with losing weight; nevertheless your approach is about as realistic as the No Cheesecake Diet. It’s sad that you’re entertaining such preposterous illusions; you’re usually so accomplished and down-to-earth. Where’s your hard-nosed realism now? You need a dose of it. Wake up and figure out what you really need to do, to get the job done. Otherwise, you’re just missing out on delicious cheesecake for no reason.
crossed a line until long after you stepped over it, and been slapped for doing so. To you, some of those lines are just plain invisible. There are ways around these limitations, though. Heck, even some autistic people, who have trouble interpreting ambiguous social cues (like facial expressions, for instance) find ways to navigate the world nevertheless. This week, you ought to be especially good at recognizing your own blind spots. Luckily, you’ll be even better at inventing ways to work around them. AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18)
ONE ON ONE DAD & KEIKI EXCURSIONS
Screw multitasking. Sometimes you rock at it, sometimes you don’t. Right now…not so much. You’re so busy thinking about all the shit you have to do that you only devote half your attention to the task currently at hand. In other words, your performance sucks, at least compared to how fantastic it would be if you devoted yourself to it completely. The key: don’t allow yourself to be distracted by all those other things you’ll need to get to, eventually, nor by the many pure diversions that could derail you completely if you’re not careful. Be single-minded. Focus. Do one thing at a time, and nothing else. Not only will you finish it, and well, but also in record time–freeing you to move on to the second thing (but don’t even think about the third until that one’s done, please).

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20)
One thing I like about you Fish is that you don’t usually have contempt for people who are simple, even though you yourself are eminently complex. In fact, sometimes I think you envy anyone who can be single-minded about anything, because that’s something you’re not generally good at. There are times, however, when you might be able to put on blinders and devote most, if not all, of your attention and energy towards a single goal. This week is one of those rare, lucky occasions. Pick an ambitious target, block out everything else, and go for it.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)
Stop biting your tongue. If you’ve got an opinion, by all means share it. Your famous open-mindedness often translates into blandness, because you rarely appear to have strong feelings in any particular direction. Now, I know that’s not true. Although you rock at seeing both sides of any equation, there are times when you are solidly on one side of the fence or the other, instead of straddling it. Speak up, baby, and now. The folks you want to impress are so bored by wallflowers and flip-floppers that they might not give you a second chance. SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)
I’m mostly annoyed by that cliché about new doors opening when old ones get slammed in your face. That old saw’s stuck around so long, however, because there’s truth in it. That relationship or opportunity that slipped through your fingers was not perfect for you, even though you probably thought it was. There are a million new possibilities before you, even though they might not be immediately visible. Part of the problem is you’re not exactly looking for them. Even right in front of your nose, you might not see them, because you’re blinded by disappointment. You don’t have to get over that disappointment, not yet. But can you at least try to look past it? SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)
Sometimes you just have to bite your tongue. When your friend hooks up with someone you dislike (or despise), watch how you express your disapproval. That can quickly spiral downwards into a lose-lose situation, if you’re not careful. On the one hand, you wouldn’t be a good friend if you didn’t put in your honest two cents. On the other, don’t you dare put in three. It’s your job to stop them from making any huge mistakes, even if it means risking your friendship. But letting your buddy make a bunch of smaller mistakes, and learn a lesson the hard way (which sticks) might ultimately be the kindest thing you can do. CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19)
You Caps can be a little bit clueless about certain social situations. Sometimes you’re not aware that you’ve
ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)
Rain hangs heavy overhead. Poke a hole in the clouds and they’d explode, drenching all of us. You shouldn’t stay inside, though. The threat of downpour is worse than the reality. What’s holding you back is this illusion that if you don’t shake things up, the rain might not fall, or it might float on to fall on some other place, someone else’s life. Forget that. Expect to get wet. Know that you’ll be drenched to the bone, and shivering. You’ll also get to where you want to go, which ultimately outweighs all other considerations. Here’s your choice: stay inside, dry, and go nowhere, or endure a little misery and discomfort, but reach your destination. Come on. It’s a no-brainer. TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20)
Bodies have their own equilibrium. Studies show that it’s extremely hard to change the point at which your body is comfortable, when it comes to weight. It takes profound discipline and a lot more time than most people are willing to give it, to truly change the shape of your body. A lot of things take more time than you’d expect, and unless you really commit to them, for the long haul, you’ll never get anything but ongoing disappointment out of them. If you’re going to do something half-assed, you might as well spare yourself the trouble and not bother at all.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)
Don’t be shortsighted. I know part of this is actually a good thing, a desire to be present. But sometimes you fail to look far enough ahead to accurately gauge how you’ll feel a month from now, a year, a decade. Of course, knowing the future is impossible, but you could stand to do a bit more guessing about it. For example: Is the person you’re with someone you’ll still like in a year, or ten, or fifty? How’s your job (or the prospects it enables) going to suit you in a decade? It’s time for some projections. Send your imagination into the future and see what you can see. Then, when it gets back, it’s time to act on what you saw there. To contact Caeriel send mail to sign.language.astrology@gmail.com
