CHARGE THIS! Looks like we got us a fuel surcharge war going on! Hot damn! The bloodletting started the afternoon of Jan. 22, 2007, when Pacific Business News posted a story on its website about A&B’s Matson Navigation Company’s announcement that on Jan. 28 the shipper would drop its fuel surcharge from 18.75 percent to just 17.5 percent. A little over 24 hours later, Horizon Lines followed suit and lowered its fuel surcharge to 17. 5 percent—exactly like Matson had just done!

They copied them! Sure, a Horizon exec later said the cost cutting came as a result of “the continued downward trend in fuel costs,” but that doesn’t change the fact that Matson was first and Horizon totally came in second. MTW

And you fools thought Honolua Bay was only for surfers, snorkelers and those guys who allegedly used to charge rubes money to use the water until the Maui PD busted them.

“ML&P submits plans for Honolua,” notes the Jan. 25, 2007 Maui News.

And what plans: 40 homes, 18-hole golf course mostly, though Maui Land is also throwing in some vaguely worded extras like “cultural park,” “surf park” and “marine informational signs.” Neither The Maui News piece nor the one in the same day’s Honolulu Advertiser had any word on the project’s eventual cost, projected home sizes (Honolua Ridge home lots were between three and 30 acres) or potential to impact one of the best surf spots in the world, but they did make clear construction “is years away” even if Maui Land gets all its permits approved. Maui Land may be an immensely powerful corporation that can rely on generally sympathetic news coverage, but apparently even they can’t get the county Planning Department to move quickly.

“The reality is that the future economic fortunes of our state will be determined by the capabilities and creativity of our people and by their ability to work and communicate effectively with others around world,” Governor Linda Lingle said in her Jan. 22, 2007 State of the State Address. She was undoubtedly talking about men like Nicholas Susner. CEO of Honolulu-based Science & Technology International (STI) since 1993, Susner is the embodiment of the kind of “innovative” business leader Lingle gushed over during her address. “STI’s mission is enhancing the quality of life through the innovative application and emerging technologies,” Susner said in the December 2002 edition of California CEO. In a nutshell, the company builds high-tech detection equipment, both for military and civilian uses. In 1999, it won a $50 million contract from the U.S. Office of Naval Research to design new submarine detection technology, which is also used today in our own waters to count whales. The company is also working on new spy blimps, which sound very World War I, but are actually rather cutting edge. On the healthcare front, STI has developed systems for better cervical cancer detection and skin cancer treatment. For the kind of money Susner donated to Lingle’s campaign—though he did wait until Election Day itself to hand over the check—he could have at least gotten a shout-out from Lingle during her address, especially considering that he and his company won a mention in one of former Governor Ben Cayetano’s State of the States.

State of Disquietude The untold story of alien invasive species

As I walk down a segment of Kaupakalua Road in Haiku near my home, all the lush undergrowth seems to be invasive. Strawberry guava, African tulip, cane grass, clidemia hirta and wedelia, which my landscaper friend used to call “the scourge of Haiku.” There is not a native plant in sight.

“A thing is right only when it tends to preserve the integrity, stability and beauty of the community,” wrote Aldo Leopold in his Sand County Almanac, “and the community includes the soil, water, fauna and flora, as well as the people.”

My own appreciation for invasive species work and its importance in the Hawaiian Islands took a quantum leap when I spent a day hiking with biologist Pat Bily in Kapunakea Preserve, high in the West Maui Mountains.

Bily has worked with The Nature Conservancy, which manages Kapunakea, for 17 years, and is a wealth of knowledge of both native species and invasives.

We were dropped off by helicopter near the summit of Kahalawai, the West Maui Mountains. In the early morning mist, I stood in the midst of a pristine high bog 100 percent populated with native plants. The mana, or spiritual essence, of the place was thick. For the next seven hours, we bushwhacked down a plant and bird monitoring “trail,” though this would not fit the common definition of a hikeable trail. We traversed distinct biological ecosystems, with blooming native lobelia glori-amontis (“Glory of the Mountain”), and the West Maui greensword (Argyroxiphium grayanum). Shortly after noon, we reached the fence line.

Within moments, the effect of wild pigs on the environment became apparent. Undergrowth was trampled

and torn. In areas where pigs had uprooted the ground like roto-tillers, mosquito larvae infested muddy puddles of water.

Tibouchina and other weeds abounded, outnumbering native species. A state of disquietude replaced the serenity of the morning.

You’ve probably heard how coqui frogs have overrun the Big Island, infesting 7,000 to 8,000 acres and shattering any hopes of a silent night. You might be aware of the threat posed by miconia, which has overtaken native forests in Tahiti and threatens East Maui as well.

And you may understand that the denuded wiliwili and coral trees across the island are the result of the tiny erythrina gall wasp, first cited on Maui just 18 months ago.

But there is probably much you may not know about the heroic efforts undertaken to protect Maui’s environment, economy and quality of life from these types of alien invaders.

It’s said that all the native species which emerged in these remote, volcanic islands arrived here by wing, wind or water. The Polynesians arrived by water, bringing with them taro, yams, bananas, breadfruit and pigs. They also introduced ti plant, bamboo, noni, paper mulberry for making tapa cloth, kukui and sugar cane. Yet none of these introductions destabilized the islands’ eco-systems.

In the past two centuries, Western foreigners have behaved differently, radically altered the native eco-systems through clearing, grazing and plundering resources like sandalwood. Along with their sailing ships, and eventually airplanes, came a flurry of hitchhiking alien pests like rats, mosquitos, termites, fruit flies and centipedes, as well as infectious diseases.

More recently, intentionally introduced animals such as the cattle egret, and ornamental plants like the African tulip tree and miconia, have begun to dominate other species in ways that had not been

imagined. They are examples of nature out of balance, and exist all around us.

Kiawe and ironwood trees dot our coastlines. Common bird species like sparrows, cardinals, doves, mejiros and francolins are all non-native to Hawai`i.

But how does an introduced species obtain the “Wanted” poster moniker of an “invasive alien?”

Maui Invasive Species Committee (MISC), founded a decade ago, does pest assessments for potential target species based upon the degree of threat, feasibility of control or eradication, potential costs and public opinion. Currently, MISC has about 20 target species, with coqui frogs and miconia being the best known. Lesser known threats include pampas grass, fountain grass, ivy gourd, banana poka, arundo (giant reed) and the veiled (not Jackson’s) chameleon.

MISC grew out of a Melastome Action Committee, comprised of scientists concerned with the rapid spread and threat of members of the melastome family, principally miconia, tibouchina and clidemia.

MISC has grown by leaps and bounds, and now employs a staff of 26. They use GPS mapping, interagency teamwork, cordial public outreach and passionate conservation ethics to lead successful local invasive pest control efforts.

Learn more: Invasive species committees and councils of Hawaii www.hear.org/alliscs Pu`u Kukui Preserve www.mauiland.com/puukukui.shtml Feral ungulates in Hawaii www.rarehawaii.org New Zealand Dept. of Conservation www.doc.govt.nz

Various watershed partnership and conservation organizations are calabash cousins to MISC: East Maui Watershed Partnership, West Maui Mountain Watershed Partnership, Leeward Haleakala Watershed Partnership, Pu`u Kukui Preserve, Lanai Watershed Partnership, East Molokai Watershed Partnership and The Nature Conservancy.

These groups are largely concerned with fencing the upper reaches of biologically sensitive areas to manage the damaging effects of feral ungulates (goats,

pigs, wild cattle and axis deer). The cost of installing and maintaining fences in wild terrain is high, and often the only method of transporting workers and supplies is by helicopter.

This week, invasive species experts from several organizations and government agencies are addressing joint state legislative committees on the present and future threats represented by alien invasive species. They hope to convince lawmakers that much more funding is necessary to protect our eco-systems and our quality of life from these invaders.

MISC, which saw a three-year federal appropriation for miconia work expire this year, is hoping to find grants to make up the budget shortfall. They will also ask state legislators to approve $750,000 for coqui frog efforts on Maui.

Last year state lawmakers approved $1.8 million for frog control on the Big Island, while Maui received just $100,000. With only a dozen current coqui frog sites on Maui, MISC believes that eradication is feasible—given enough funds—everywhere except Upper Kokomo/Maliko Gulch. They’re also asking the county to approve an additional $500,000 for frog control in the upcoming fiscal year 2008 budget.

In a place where it is often said that, “the environment IS the economy,” such a funding request seems right both for environmental protection and economic development.

While Hawai`i’s invasive species are largely here due to accidental introductions, much more can be done to prevent their spread and dispersal from island to island.

There has been discussion of the high-speed Hawaii Superferry transporting noxious weeds and pests like the little red fire ant and nettle caterpillar (present on the Big Island) or the glassy-winged sharpshooter (aka “pissing wasp”), now living on Oahu.

Greater inter-island inspection efforts will be necessary, as well as federal legislation, such as HR 3468, which was introduced by then-Congressman Ed Case, to provide increased inspections of incoming passengers and cargo to Hawai`i. New Zealand not only has a greatly restricted list of allowable plants for importation, but also has a Department of Conservation, devoted to protection of its natural resources.

If Hawai`i is to reclaim its sense of place with dignity, we must strive to support efforts that help preserve and restore natural areas, from the mountains to the sea. Rallying to help stem the tide of alien invasive species is a vital component of that quest. MTW

Helm’s Gone

My adventures in closed course racing

PHOTOS COURTESY OF HUGHES PHOTO

Launching off the starting line, I’m shocked at how fast John Rapacz is going into the first corner. My ear-to-ear grin seems ready to pop the helmet they loaned me for the lap off my head. The corners range from long sweepers to tight and technical hairpin turns.

Through each I’m convinced that at any moment, Rapacz’s little Miata will spin out of control. Luckily there is nothing for the car to run into. High performance tires keep the car glued to the track.

“Holy shit, I had no idea a Mazda Miata could perform like that!” I said to Rapacz after the ride.

“If you’re looking to get into this kind of racing, these little cars have a lot of bang for the buck, and they’re relatively cheap to fix or modify,” Rapacz says.

Welcome to closed course racing on Maui. The course is just north of Kihei, not far past the Maui Racing Park.

The sanctioning body is the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA). Solo II, the brand name of this form of racing, involves a road course set up on a flat, expansive, paved surface. Courses are mapped out using traffic cones, with speeds not exceeding 70 miles per hour. Each competitor runs individually in four heats.

In his best pseudo heavy metal voice, Brian Thomas, the event’s emcee, screams into the mic, “Is everybody ready?” Thomas missed his calling as a stand-up comedian.

In the morning heat a biodiesel powered Jetta started the first run. The other 10 cars in the heat ranged from an older VW GTI Rabbit to a fully raceprepped 3 Series BMW, which was for sale.

The crowd favorite seemed to be the run-down BMW sedan. The car was donated to the driver and all he did to make it race wor-

thy was install a $120 racing seat. Fortunately for the slower cars, there are different categories in which they compete.

The afternoon heat saw a couple more exotic cars. Like the V-8 powered Cobra. It was music to my ears to hear that motor approaching its redline as it flew though the long right hand corner. A Lotus Super 7 nabbed the best time of the day—as it should, being a bona fide racecar.

The rest of the cars in the afternoon heat included a couple Miatas, more BMWs, a Mazda Speed 6 and a Honda Civic. I was expecting to see more Hondas at the event than there actually were, considering how many there are racing on public roads. Note to Honda driving racers: put that aftermarket exhaust system to good use and go race at the Solo IIs. The fun runs took place after the competitions. It’s during this time that drivers get to take a passenger for a lap. This is the part of the day I was waiting for.

For just $1, which helps to cover track costs, you too can experience this under-priced thrill.

SCCA Solo II racing is nothing like NASCAR, but a quote from the recent Will Farrell movie Taledega Nights sums it up best.

“I wanna go fast, I wanna go fast!” a young Ricky Bobby says in the movie. After a day at the SCCA races, I totally agree.

Of all the Maui County Liquor Commissioners, Zachary Helm was closest to an actual celebrity. His own musical career fizzed decades ago, but his daughter Raiatea Helm earned a Best Hawaiian Album Grammy nomination in 2005 for her work Sweet & Lovely.

A Liquor Commissioner since 2003, Molokai resident Zachary Helm tendered his resignation at the Jan. 10, 2007 Commission hearing, a year before his term was up. His reason: Mayor Charmaine Tavares hired him as deputy director of the county’s Department of Parks and Recreation. Helm has worked for the county as the Parks & Rec Molokai District Supervisor since 1982.

“As a former director of the Parks and Recreation Department, I have had the opportunity to work firsthand with both Tamara [Horcajo, the new director] and Zach,” Tavares said in a Dec. 28, 2006 press release. “I know that they will work hard to improve facilities and recreational opportunities for residents and visitors alike.”

And that’s not just political hot air, either—Raiatea Helm sang both The Star Spangled Banner and the Hawai`i Pono`i at Tavares’ rather extravagant Inaugural Ceremony at the Maui Arts & Cultural Center’s Castle Theater.

So no more LC Helm. Then again, Helm was one of the quieter commissioners, not really known to ask a lot of questions.

“This department needs him more than Parks and Recreation,” LC Director Franklyn Silva said after announcing Helm’s resignation. But then Silva pointed to a bright side: Helm could help out the LC while he’s at the Parks Department. “He’ll be very valuable at Parks for our purposes because he knows both sides of the street,” Silva said.

priate security measure—that remains to be seen,” Hawai`i ACLU executive director Vanessa Chong says in today’s Honolulu Star-Bulletin. Among her concerns: the operation would constitute a “dragnet search,” assuming collective guilt instead of “individualized suspicion.”

Come on, this is America! We invented the Bill of Rights! Then again, the National Security Agency is tracking every citizen’s phone records regardless of probable cause. And the state Attorney General is busy banning drug offenders from public areas. Oh yeah, I’d say the time to start worrying was, oh, about six years ago.

WEDNESDAY, Jan. 24 In January 2006 state Board of Education member Mary Cochran got so hot and bothered about alleged drug use on Maui school campuses she demanded the immediate release of dope-sniffing dogs. “Don’t waste time,” she reportedly said. “Go for it.

What’s the worst thing that’s going to happen? You’re going to get your wrist slapped or you’re going to get sued.” Well, looks like she got her wish—about the dogs, not the lawsuit, though there’s still plenty of time for that. Sometime this month, a dog and its handler will visit Kalama Intermediate School in Makawao and sniff the gym, cafeteria, lockers, lounges, restrooms and the outside of all the buildings. The state Attorney General’s office, school officials and parents all seem thrilled. The parents especially, who said things in yesterday’s Honolulu Advertiser like “I think it’s great” and “Why not?” Of course, the local office of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)—that meddling band of party-poopers who still take the Bill of Rights seriously—has its reservations. “Whether or not it’s an appro-

The long-awaited press release from the Maui Dharma Center finally came in today: the rumors we’ve all been hearing are true, and the Dalai Lama is actually coming to the island. On April 24 and 25, he will appear at the Maui Arts & Cultural Center as part of his latest incredibly popular world tour. As usual, the Tibetan Buddhist monk ousted from his homeland by the Chinese government in 1959 will speak about the importance of kindness, compassion and world peace, which are all very good and necessary ideas—especially given the way the Chinese Communist leadership conquered Tibet, murdered hundreds of thousands of Tibetan citizens and are currently moving so many ethnic Han Chinese into the land that the Tibetan people and culture may soon disappear entirely—but are also, undeniably, pretty easy to push. “The Dalai Lama’s pop Buddhism is appealingly self-centered: Happiness trumps everything,” wrote Slate.com’s David Plotz on Apr. 20, 1997.

“This is a winning idea in our therapeutic culture: a religion that’s about my satisfaction, not God’s.” In any case, since the Dalai Lama’s first day at the MACC will be completely free and open to the public (Day Two costs $20 per person “plus applicable service fees”), I’d start thinking now about where to park your car.

FRIDAY, Jan. 26 My calendar says today is Australia Day, and yet instead of participating in the grand festivities, I have to work.

What gives?

Hey, that’s my lunch! ship?” If you guessed “outbreak,” you’d be correct! Apparently, good ol’ norovirus is all the rage in modern luxury cruises. And no ship seems immune—even the venerable old Queen Elizabeth 2, due to arrive in Hawai`i this weekend, is in the throes of a vicious stomach flu outbreak. According to today’s Honolulu Star-Bulletin, 276 out of the ship’s 1,652 passengers—nearly 17 percent—had contracted the virus. If this seems like a low percentage, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) consider an “outbreak” to occur when more than three percent of the ship’s passengers get sick.

What’s more, statistics gathered by noted cruise ship analyst Ross Klein (www.cruisejunkie.com) indicates the problem is getting worse. In 2006, a total of 6,502 cruise shippers became ill in 51 outbreaks, which was substantial increase over 2005’s 4,016 sick passengers in 32 outbreaks. That’s a stunning 59 percent increase in outbreaks. A Jan. 22 Florida Today story quotes a CDC official as saying the greater number of outbreaks is “partly related” to the expansion of the cruise industry, but official cruise line growth figures cited in the Florida Today article indicate the cruise industry grew just nine percent in 2005 and 11 percent in 2004 (2006 figures aren’t yet available).

Depot on the island. So reports yesterday’s Maui News, which quoted from Hokama’s recent letter on the subject to his colleagues. Big box retailers bring “tremendous community impacts, including traffic congestion, increased demand on government infrastructure, negative environmental consequences and harmful, often fatal, impacts on small business,” Hokama wrote, according to the Maui News. How dare he! Does Chairman Hokama have no shame? How in good conscience can he rattle off all those problems associated with enormous shopping outlets without mentioning that they also—especially in the case of Wal-Mart— tend to be anti-union? It’s enough to make you question his whole line of argument.

MONDAY, Jan. 29 By the way, did I mention the QE2 was coming to Maui? She dropped anchor off Lahaina this morning. You’ve got nothing to worry about, though—not only is the CDC reporting that the norovirus outbreak is under control, but heavy seas apparently prevented the liner from launching any boats into Lahaina Harbor.

TUESDAY, Jan. 30 By the way, did you know that full-time cashiers who’ve been with Costco for four years earn $40,000 a year? No, that’s not an error: Forty Thousand Dollars American. Plus health benefits, too. Says so in The New York Times, if you don’t believe me. Unlike some retail giants–one of which has a name that rhymes with Ball Fart–Costco apparently wants to give its valued, long-term employees a living wage. Go figure.

Anthony Pignataro has invented many phrases, including “big box,” “heavy seas” and “coke-addled” but for some reason receives no royalties from their use. MTW

NEWSOFTHEWEIRD WE’RE STILL WINNING, RIGHT? At the December ceremony in Najaf, Iraq, in which U.S. commanders turned over control of the city, Iraqi commandos took the stage carrying frogs and a rabbit and soon were eating the animals raw in a show of feral manliness. As U.S. personnel looked on apprehensively, one Iraqi cut open the rabbit’s belly, screamed, snatched its heart in his teeth, and passed the bloody carcass down the line, with each commando taking a bite.

According to a Baltimore Sun dispatch, locals said that Saddam Hussein’s special forces used to do similar things, but with snakes, dogs, cats and even wolves.

COMPELLING EXPLANATIONS Floyd Kinney Jr., 49, pleading guilty in Northampton County, Pa., in December to indecent assault on two young girls, blamed the incidents on his wife’s obsessive bingo habit, which he said took her out of the house “three, four times a week.” Said the judge, “Some people, when their wives aren’t home, decide to clean the living room.”

HUMAN RIGHTS Charles Littleton, 22, was defiant even after being Tasered by police when he resisted efforts to remove him from a Saginaw, Mich. city council meeting. He said he had to stand up for his right to wear his Los Angeles Dodgers baseball cap, despite a rule banning hats for men inside. “It means more than just a hat,” he said. “It’s like my crown. It’s like asking a king to remove his crown.”

work painting with his posterior (literally, dousing his backside with paint and rubbing it onto the canvas). Though he had taken steps to work under a different identity, he was exposed in a video that circulated on the Internet and was thus forced to go public. Murmer said he is contemplating an appeal and added, “I’m certainly proud of the ass painting.”

IRONY California’s Golden State Fence Co., which has a contract to build part of the United States’ immigrant-impeding barrier on the Mexican border, agreed in December to pay fines totaling nearly $5 million because it had been employing illegal aliens.

LEAST COMPETENT PEOPLE Some British and German drivers have over-relied on their cars’ satellite-navigation devices, according to a December Reuters dispatch, sometimes with tragic (or hilarious) results. A 53-year-old German man thought the device’s instruction to turn “now” meant not at the next corner but right that second, and he crashed into a building.

Another followed instructions but ignored a prominent “closed for construction” sign and plowed into a pile of sand. Said an exasperated German auto club spokesman, “It’s not as if people are driving in a tank with only a small slit to see out.”

OUCH! In Chicago, dozens of men have sued Dr. Sheldon Burman after having their penises deformed in lengthening surgeries, according to lawsuits reported by the Chicago Sun-Times in September, even though Burman said he stands by his original methodology, involving vacuuming and stretching—which he is said to be self-taught. And Blake Steidler, 25, of Reamstown, Pa., who said he received botched penis-augmentation surgery, was sentenced in November to almost five years in prison for mailing a bomb to the surgeon. MTW

By Anthony Pignataro ast Saturday, on the afternoon of Jan. 27, Bob Watada walked to the microphone at one of the largest anti-war rallies that has yet sprawled across the National Mall in Washington D.C. He was there to speak for his son, U.S. Army Lt. Ehren Watada, who is currently awaiting court martial—and possible jail time—for refusing to fight in Iraq.

“We have to bring an end to blood oil!” Watada told the crowd The Washington Post later estimated numbered in the “tens of thousands.” “We have to say to Congress enough is enough! The truth is a danger to the Bush empire! The army wants to make my son a political prisoner—a political prisoner not unlike those we condemn in other countries. We must tell Congress that people—you and I—are more important than corporate profits.”

Even considering that he’s defending his son’s right to disobey what he considers an illegal order to fight in an illegal war, it’s doubtful that Watada would have employed such fiery rhetoric had he not retired in 2005 after a decade as Hawai`i’s Campaign Spending Commission executive director.

Twenty-four hours earlier, I was sitting with U.S. Congresswoman Mazie Hirono (D, 2nd District).

Possessing a hatred of the war every bit as thoughtful as Watada’s, Hirono campaigned last year on a progressive— and popular—troops-out-now platform.

“We should get out of the quagmire that is Iraq with a

phased redeployment of U.S. forces that begins before the end of 2006,” said her campaign website. To a small gathering of residents at the old Maui Booksellers in Wailuku that July, Hirono said simply, “We need to have a plan to get our troops out of Iraq.”

Moderated now by the power and responsibility that comes from serving as one of nation’s 435 elected Congressional representatives, Hirono was understandably less radical than Watada.

“The incompetence of the war is awesome in its entirety,” she said before adding sadly that President George W. Bush’s actions “portend a much longer time for us to be in Iraq.”

Hirono said Congress would pass a non-binding resolution opposing Bush’s 21,500-troop “Surge,” though she stopped short of advocating an immediate end to the war.

“Even if we pull out, we have to be part of the rebuilding of Iraq,” she said. “We have to get the rest of the Middle East engaged. Civil war and a descent into chaos is not in their interests, but we’re not there yet because we’re not talking to Iran, to Syria…” an. 26 was Hirono’s first trip back to Maui since getting elected to Congress. She has represented all of Hawai`i except for Honolulu in Congress for about a month. Sworn in on Jan. 4 with the rest of the 110th Congress, Hirono is a former state legislator, deputy attorney general and lieutenant governor.

After narrowly beating a wide field of candidates for the Democratic Party nomination last September, Hirono cruised to an easy victory over right-wing Republican Bob Hogue. An analysis of her campaign finances by the Center for Responsive Politics in Washington, D.C. shows her biggest donors were labor unions, lawyers and retired individuals—a typical profile for a progressive Democratic candidate.

During the race Hirono raised $1,397,037. Her most recent campaign filing shows $125,940 in debt, which isn’t actually that bad for a freshman representative. On Jan. 16, National Public Radio reported that some freshmen have racked up close to $200,000 in debt— money they have to pay off in about six months, or risk getting a slow start in raising money for their 2008 races.

That’s the price of running for Congress–something close to an eternal campaign. In any case, Hirono considers herself heir to the legacy of the late, unapologetically liberal Congresswoman Patsy Mink, rather than successor to the far more moderate Ed Case.

J

“Nancy Pelosi [the first female Speaker of the House] told me that Patsy had told her a long time ago that one day she would be speaker,” Hirono told a small gathering of local residents and school officials at Maui High School’s library during her Jan. 26 visit. “It’s a really good time to be a member of Congress.”

Since taking office, the U.S. House of Representatives has taken steps to distance itself from the previous Republican-led Congress, which became infamous as a mere instrument for approving President Bush’s wars and domestic policies. The Pelosi-led House has already passed bills raising the minimum wage, adding new ethics rules to curb previous congressional excesses, legalizing stem cell research, lowering interest rates for college tuition and lowering prescription drug prices.

“The Democrats are so much more in touch with what working people need and want,” Hirono said, trying to get through a cold. “But we averaged about 62 Republican votes for each of these bills.”

Rather than called a “freshman,” Hirono said the Democratic leadership in the House refers to her fellow rookies as “majority-making members.” She said the Democrats are still trying to get used to running the House, having been in the all-but-powerless minority since early 1995.

“That’s why you’ll see members rushing to change their votes [on bills] sometimes,” she said. “They forget they’re in the majority and can vote yes now.”

She also said this Congress would be working a lot harder than previous bodies. “The last few [Republicanled] Congresses went into recess soon after being sworn in,” she said. “And then they only worked two to three days a week. We have a five-day work schedule that makes it difficult for me to come home every week.

“These are exciting times,” she continued. “There’s so much talk about dealing with global warming. Only this year has President Bush acknowledged that climate change is an issue.”

Hirono, who sits on the Education and Labor Committee and Transportation and Infrastructure Committee—two of the largest and most popular in the House—will be able to deal with issues ranging from mass transit to the controversial No Child Left Behind program that Bush wants continued.

“No Child Left Behind comes before our subcommittee [on Early Childhood, Elementary and Secondary Education],” Hirono said. “That’s going to be big... So much money—billions and billions of dollars—are going to the war. Even the good parts of No Child Left Behind are not being funded.”

Hence Hirono’s Jan. 26 visit to Maui High, where she

day to do their work,” Hirono said later. “That’s a good sign.”

After the Project EAST students went home—it was about 4 p.m. on a Friday, after all—Hirono returned to the library where two students videotaped a short interview with her about alternative energy. “We really do need to break our dependence on imported oil,” she told them. n Jan. 11, after Hirono had been a Congresswoman for a week, the Honolulu Star-Bulletin published a curious story. Titled “Hirono learning the ropes,” reporter Richard Borreca briefly outlined Hirono’s previous Washington experience, her current committee assignments, then quoted Ted Carmine, who teaches at the Indiana University Center on Congress.

“Usually, freshmen don’t carry much weight,” Carmine said in the story. “The committee asks questions by seniority… Sometimes they run out of time, and the freshmen never get to ask their questions.” Borreca then quoted Carmine as saying freshmen congressional members should “Pay attention and keep quiet.”

“It’s not true!” Hirono told me at Maui High. “They give us lots of time to ask questions during hearings.”

In fact, the story provoked Hirono so much she mentioned it on the floor of the House of Representatives. “[F]rankly, I just want to share with my colleagues

from the majority-making class, of which I am very proud, there was an article written in a local newspaper back home about me and how I am doing here, and they quoted a professor from the University of Pennsylvania [sic], a political science professor,” she said on Jan. 19, according to the Congressional Record. “And he said, basically, freshmen are hardly ever seen and they are never heard from. Well, nothing could be further from the truth in our class. Not only were we seen, but we were heard from. We were encouraged to speak out. And I think every single one of us had an opportunity to speak on all of these bills, as I certainly did.”

The Congressional Record—the daily account of every vote and speech made in Congress—seems to support her argument. Since the Star-Bulletin story came out, Hirono has spoken on the House floor five times. Her first speech, on Jan. 12, dealt with House Resolution 4, which allows Medicare to negotiate with drug companies for lower costs.

“Thousands of American families spent countless hours studying the Medicare Part D process,” she said.

“My family was one of those. I sat with my 82-year-old mother as we worked our way through the confusing plans… By giving Medicare negotiating authority, we will take an important step in the right direction.”

Jan. 17 was a busy day. Hirono was back on the House floor expressing her support for the Native Hawaiian Reorganization Act, which Hawai`i’s Senators Daniel Akaka and Daniel Inouye had just re-introduced.

Later, Hirono spoke favorably of House Resolution 5, which cut the interest rate for college loans from 6.8 percent to 3.4 percent.

That same day, Hirono put her name to a letter signed by each of the freshman Democrats. Addressed to Representative Charlie Rangle (D, New York), the new chairman of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee, the letter advocated an end to the free trade agreements the White House and Republican Party had pushed for the last six years.

“Vital to our electoral successes was our ability to take a vocal stand against the Administration’s misguided trade agenda, and offer voters real, meaningful alternatives to the job-killing agreements, such as CAFTA [Central American Free Trade Agreement], that the majority of our opponents supported,” stated the letter.

“As freshmen, we hope to be able to work with you and other Members of the Ways and Means Committee in crafting a new model for U.S. trade agreements that will not only reduce barriers to U.S. exports, but promote fairness and restore opportunity and sustainability for American workers, farmers, and small businesses.”

Of course, not everything the House does involves such weighty matters of state. On Jan. 23, Hirono spoke in favor of House Resolution 323, the Seasoned Customer CTR Exemption Act—a bill designed to remove what Hirono called “burdensome paperwork for individual and institutional” banking transactions.

got a briefing from five students on Project EAST (Environmental and Spatial Technology)—a special program in which students take on computer-aided projects on their own initiative. In late February, the students who briefed Hirono will travel to Hot Springs, Arkansas for a competition involving 2,000 students nationwide.

“This is a really good program,” Hirono said moments after she arrived at the school. The library was warm, only partially cooled by a fan, given that the air conditioning had recently gone out. She was surprised to hear that the program, which involves about 200 Maui High students, runs in every high school on the island but doesn’t yet operate on Oahu.

Hirono spent about an hour and a half with the Project EAST students, who used a PowerPoint presentation to show the congresswoman their ambitious projects, including one that seeks to redesign the library in which we were sitting and another that involves students using a three dimensional computer modeling program to design a proposed multipurpose building for the campus.

The students then showed Hirono their computer lab, and one of their project robots, which looked like a small truck chassis with a Gameboy mounted on top.

“The students told me there weren’t enough hours in the

Administration has done just about everything wrong it possibly could. At one point former Defense Policy Board chairman Richard Perle—the intellectual grandfather of the invasion and occupation of Iraq—tells how the occupation authority routinely risked American soldiers’ lives by sending them on convoys hauling ice 300 miles through the extremely hostile terrain between Kuwait and Baghdad.

Missing from the story is any discussion of the role Congress played in the war, for the simple reason that Congress, though tasked by the U.S. Constitution with the sole authority to declare war, played virtually no part in the run-up to the war. They exercised no oversight, held no hearings of substance and pretty much just went along with whatever nonsense Bush and the rest of the White House put out.

And now things are getting worse. Not only has President Bush given every indication that he will continue to prosecute the war in Iraq as long as he’s president, but his ordering the imprisonment of Iranian agents in northern Iraq, sending a second carrier battle group to the Persian Gulf and authorizing U.S. soldiers to kill Iranians found in Iraq all seem calculated solely to provoke a war with Iran.

For now though, it seems radical solutions to such actions will only come from people like Bob Watada, who have the freedom to speak as private individuals.

“It’s very difficult to withhold funding [for the war],” Hirono said. “[But] we’ll question him [President Bush], hold hearings. What happened to $3 billion that seems to be missing? The role of Congress is going to be to hold the president accountable—to establish benchmarks. We’re going to play the role Congress should have been playing for the last six years.” MTW

ear the end of our talk, Hirono asked me if I’ve read David Rose’s article “Neo Culpa,” which ran in the January 2007 issue of Vanity Fair. “It’s a great story,” she said. “He interviews the neocons who pushed for Iraq. They say if they knew of the Bush Administration’s incompetence back then, they would have had second thoughts.”

The article is both fascinating and depressing.

Neoconservatives like former Bush speechwriter David Frum, former CIA director R. James Woolsey and former Defense Policy Board member Kenneth Adelman all now say that Iraq is lost, Saddam Hussein was not the threat they once thought and the Bush

Anyway, I would watch Bobby Flay, Tyler Florence, and (be still, my heart) Michael Chiarello (Hello, Napa Valley!) and then rush out to the grocery store for dinner supplies. Sounds simple, but it’s not. First of all, buying a bunch of ingredients costs a bunch of money. Who knew farina costs six bucks a box? It’s still cream of wheat, right? Not to mention, half the time I couldn’t find what I was looking for.

crappy cook. Let’s not dwell on that.

So we shut off the cable, bought a dozen cases of saimin and I’ve been unsatisfied ever since. That is, until I figured out that I lived right down the road from John Paul Fine Foods in the Pukalani Square. Thank you, God. John Paul Fine Foods is in the little spot where Maui’s Best Tamales used to be, right next to Paradise Pharmacy. It’s great—you hit the pharmacy for your week’s worth of Tylenol PM and then you pop into John Paul’s for a homemade dinner to go. Can it get any better?

On a daily basis, you can find good stuff like chicken potpie, veggie lasagna, lasagna bolognese (fancy name for meat lasagna), mac and cheese, meatloaf, turkey meatloaf, salads, shepherd’s pie, cold fried chicken, and a bunch of other staples. They also have a great selection of homemade soups, varying gourmet dishes like osso bucco and crab cakes, cheese and charcuterie (fancy name for cured and dried meats), and interesting bottled beverages like fermented lemonade.

I have tried the turkey meatloaf, the porcini scalloped potatoes, the pumpkin soup, focaccia and that fermented lemonade drink. It was all tasty.

The turkey meatloaf was hearty and had great flavor—a little nutty, a little sweet, very savory. The porcini scalloped potatoes were creamy, extremely filling and had a hint of nutmeg to them. You

can’t go wrong with butter, cream and starch.

The pumpkin soup was refreshing; one of those things you can eat cold or warm. When it’s warm I like to plop a big spoonful of sour cream into it.

The focaccia was good—especially when I started using it as a medium for consuming ungodly amounts of olive oil and balsamic. The lemonade was fancy—it had just enough alcohol in it to make you feel, well, fancy.

Plus, the bottle it comes in is really cute and doubles as a small vase.

You can buy a complete dinner for two for about $30. This is good considering it would cost about the same to go out to dinner at a so-so restaurant, and way more if you were to buy the ingredients to make all this stuff yourself. Not to mention, if you’re smart, you could really impress someone by going to John Paul’s, sticking the food that you got into the oven and then pretending you made it. Not that I did that. Really, that meatloaf recipe has been in my family for generations. MTW

Once Upon a Time Next Thursday (Feb. 8), 7:30 p.m. at McCoy Studio Theater, MACC [STORYTELLING] “Stories From the Atlantic Night Café” by Mike Daisey. The New York Times calls Daisey a “master storyteller” and “one of the finest solo performers of his generation.” He’s said to tackle uneasy subject matter and peel away at it until he gets to its raw heart. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What makes Daisey’s performances truly amazing is that they are totally “limited edition.” Once he tells a tale, he files it away in the vaults never to be told again. Ka-put. Kind of like Disney and their DVD’s, but way better. An hour or so before the show, he sits down and outlines his performance. The audience and Daisey kind of hear the stories at the same time. I think that’s really cool. That’s kind of what I do every time I sit at a computer keyboard. Mental regurgitation—except my tales are all reruns. Except my tales are all reruns… reruns… reruns.

Wednesday (Feb. 7), 5 and 7:30 p.m. at the Castle Theater, MACC

[DISCUSSION/LECTURE] Freedom—it’s not just a George Michael song anymore. And according to Alan Clements, author of Instinct for Freedom and The Voice of Hope: Conversations with Burma’s incarcerated Nobel peace laureate, Aung San Suu Kyi, it’s been hijacked. So Clements is on a “campaign to liberate freedom,” as he addresses the question: “How can we liberate freedom, personal and global, from the forces of indoctrination, fear, and complicity with war?”

He will lead this presentation exploring what freedom means, followed by a Q&A. Tickets: $15 at the door. For more info visit www.thestudiomaui.com or www.WorldDharma.com.

[FILM] When I told a friend I was writing a “Pick of the Week” about the Maui Film Festival’s screening of Half Nelson, he said, “That movie is about my life.” There certainly are parallels between his experience and that of the movie’s protagonist, played by the incredible Ryan Gosling. Both are (or were) young, Caucasian, idealistic inner-city middle school teachers. Both began their careers with a burning desire to make a positive impact in one of the most impoverished neighborhoods—the inner cities of Oakland and Brooklyn, respectively—in the world’s wealthiest country. Both were passionate and energetic leaders with a gift for reaching their often-troubled students despite dealing with enormous stress themselves. However, the similarities end there. While Gosling’s character, Dan Dunne, turned to smoking crack as an escape from his harsh reality, my friend wisely chose a healthier alternative, moving to Maui to decompress. He acknowledges the reality of the movie’s premise. “Where there’s no hope, there’s dope,” he eloquently explains. “There’s a disproportionate amount of drug and alcohol abuse amongst inner-city teachers. Being in a hopeless environment, seeing kids with fucked-up family situations can drive you over the edge.” Which is why the Chicago Reader called Dunne, “The most believable protagonist in an American movie this year,” and also explains why Gosling received a much-deserved Oscar nomination for his powerful performance. Tickets: $10, at Maui Arts & Cultural Center’s box office. [COREY NIELSEN]

I’m a sucker for baggie jeans and do-rag’s. I’m talking break-dancing as in record-breaking class-size stuff. Evidentially, the current record for the biggest dance class in the world boasts 242 students. This number seems small to me, but maybe I’ve watched too many dance-off movies. The Aloha Ballroom Dance Academy, the State of Hawaii’s largest dance class, will attempt to break the current Guinness Book of World Records for the largest dance class in the world. To be a part of this, bring your two left feet and a crispy green dollar down to the Kihei Community Center. Really, when are you going to get another chance to take part in breaking a world record?

As part of its monthly debate series, the Seabury Hall Philosophy Club has put together an impressive lineup of health care officials and boosters that should illuminate the underlying healthcare issues—like rising healthcare costs and declining health insurance rolls—that have made the fight over Malulani the most vigorous in the county. The debate panel includes chief Malulani booster Dr. Ronald Kwon, Maui District Health Officer Dr. Lorrin Pang, Maui Memorial Medical Center Director Wesley Lo and Dr. Donna McCleary.

FILMCRITIQUE

BY COLE SMITHEY COLE@MAUITIME.COM

Riot Grrrl Werewolf Agnes Bruckner shows her fangs Based on a novel by Annette Curtis Klause, with a title pulled from Hermann Hesse’s Steppenwolf, German director Katja Von Garnier (Bandits) uses Bucharest, Romania as a vibrant backdrop for yet another predictable werewolf movie, albeit with a slight twist. Vivian Gandillion (Agnes Bruckner) returns to her original home of Romania after her family is hunted and murdered in a Colorado forest house from which Vivian escapes by running into the woods before turning into a fullfledged wolf (loup garoux).

Blood & Chocolate

★★★★★ Rated PG-13/98 mins.

The 19-year-old Vivian works for a local chocolatier when she isn’t hanging out with her pack, led by Gabriel (Oliver Martinez), who meet monthly to hunt a single human beneath the light of the full moon. Although betrothed to the ageless Gabriel, who must marry a new mate every seven years, Vivian is romantically tempted by the human affection of Aiden Galvin (Hugh Dancy—Ella Enchanted), an American graphic novelist researching the legend of the

loup garoux for his next book. The story is a no frills template of every other modern teen werewolf tale except that the werewolves here are actual wild wolves rather than man/beast creations.

The camera loves Bruckner. The young actress who created a devastating performance for Karen Moncrieff’s Blue Car, where she played a troubled high school student sexually exploited by her English teacher, possesses all of the hallmarks of a Hollywood star. Bruckner exudes a naughty seductive quality akin to that of Scarlett Johansson, but without Johansson’s creaky mechanics. Her eyes have a confrontational shyness that dares you to look away.

It’s this quality that Von Garnier explores as a telling element of female strength for her film’s primary theme of female freedom.

Vivian disdains her anarchistic cousin Rafe (Bryan Dick) and his immature but loyal wolf pack (called “The Five”). Unlike them, Vivian wants to hunt for the thrill of running as a wolf, but not to kill. The symbiotic clash sets up the real drama of the story as Vivian’s personal struggle to balance her animal and human nature.

In the opening shots, Vivian runs through a Romanian forest and on the wet streets of Bucharest wearing a thin hooded sweat jacket that puts a retrograde spin on the Little Red Riding Hood story. The sequence sums up all of the film’s pent-up desire that will only be revealed in hunting scenes where the pack of loup garoux change from human to canine form.

As with all werewolf movies, it’s the transformation scene that provides the

payoff on the plot. For these simplistic yet impressive highlight scenes, Von Garnier imposes a luminescent Maxfield Parish-kind of glow on the characters as they take running jumps toward their midair transformation.

This is the werewolf myth put through a new age filter but with an erotic weight.

Unfortunately, Von Garnier falls short of following the fuse of Vivian’s sexual rawness and sensual poetry, which Bruckner hints at in every scene.

Blood & Chocolate is a werewolf movie for teen girls to giggle at when they aren’t contemplating their own quest for sensual

and societal freedom. John Landis’ 1981 film An American Werewolf In London is the smartest werewolf movie of the past 30plus years because it combined all of the genre’s requisite elements while adding a layer of sardonic irony that added an irreverent lift of wry comedy to the horror.

Here, Von Garnier lost sight of the humor inherent in the riot grrrl tone that she pursued, and with the horror inherent in the genre. But more importantly, she failed to connect the female libido in favor of a sanitized commercial view of romance that went out in the 1970s. MTW

Microcosmic Paradise The photographic quilts of Kiersten A. Stein

When is a quilt not a quilt, yet still a quilt? When it’s a photograph composed of color saturated microcosmic images of birds of paradise, pink ginger flowers and vivid green aloe like the aptly titled “Nature’s Quilt” by fine artist and photographer, Kiersten A. Stein, one of the featured artists at the Quan Gallery in Lahaina.

The cooperative gallery, sandwiched between Hard Rock Café and Ruth’s Chris Steak House, is an oasis of difference within the sea of celebrity and tourist-driven art galleries on Lahaina’s crowded Front Street.

Among those attending last Friday’s reception for Stein—a multi-cultural, multi-generational mix of residents, recent arrivals and those hoping to become residents, that included an intuitive healer from Arizona, a newly married Russian photographer, a couple of seniors from Kihei and a nineyear-old and her mother from Kula—the collective consensus was that this was what those who love art and Maui have been craving.

Founded by Carolyn Quan, fine art photographer and four-time gold record winner for her creative achievements in the music industry, the gallery represents six talented local artists, all working in differ-

Which, in a patchwork way, brings us back to Stein’s photo mosaics and quilts composed of images from the natural world, as well as words and phrases. For these, too, can be a collaborative effort.

Stein custom-quilts to represent the customer’s dreams and desires in a variety of formats.

So far the largest commissioned quilt measures 32 inches by 40 inches—twice the size of her pieces on exhibit at the Quan Gallery. Custom collaborations using images from Stein’s library of flowers and fauna begin at $750 for a 16-inch by 24-inch quilt.

Clients can ask Stein to photograph a particular flower or plant and incorporate that into the other images, at an hourly rate. Or they can draw upon her experience as a portrait photogGecko Quilt 1 ©Kiersten A.

“My father was a generous man,” Stein says. “He didn’t teach me everything he thought I needed to know, he taught me everything he knew.”

The oldest of five children, Stein says one of the rituals of her childhood was patchwork quilting twice a week with her Nana.

“When I photograph, I want to become the atom moving through space and time,” she says. “I like to go below the surface. Yet I’m not interested in being invasive.

Respecting the natural state of what I’m photographing is important to me. I’m extremely shy. So, in a way, I can use the camera to hide behind yet still experience great intimacy. I want my pieces to effect those who see them on an emotional and sensory level to mean something and bring something positive to those who witness them.”

Newer pieces especially, such as “Gecko” and “Needles and Thread” are hypnotic. Departing from the vivid patchwork style of the tropical pieces, which are filled with beehive and pink ginger flowers, birds of paradise, king protea, and a variety of aloe, these use desert hues and repeated images. The finished effect is reminiscent of tapestry, reminding me of an intricate Balinese or Tibetan textile.

What I like about these quilts is that they integrate the personal and the political, the local and global and Quilt 49 ©Kiersten A. Stein

CAERIEL CRESTIN SIGN.LANGUAGE.ASTROLOGY@GMAIL.COM

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) I’m not a psychotically devout believer in astrology. Yet I’ve certainly noticed powerful similarities among people of the same sign, and also seen, for example, moods overtake people all at the same time. Sure, there are many other explanations for such things; people born around the same time of year in the same culture could have similar experiences that shape them in like ways. But I think there’s more to it than that, don’t you? I’m not asking you to abandon your sacred skepticism. Just allow that there’s room in the world for more than you know (or think you know).

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) Some of my Piscean friends who wear glasses (or contacts) sometimes wander around without them. They like the world all fuzzy, without harsh edges. They prefer not knowing every detail of the people and places that surround them. I can understand that. But how much is too much?

When ignoring the abrasive sides of your world means you hurt yourself (or others; driving without your glasses, for example, would be very bad). It’s okay to deliberately miss out on some of life’s nastiness. Just find your balance.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) Your life is often exceptional, in both good and bad ways. But counting on it always playing out differently to everyone else’s would be a mistake. Sometimes a scenario plays itself out for you just as it would be expected to for anyone else—whether that’s good or bad. You get the boy or girl or job or illness, or you don’t. The point is being able to roll with whatever happens. The problem is you’ve begun to expect the unexpected. That kind of defeats the purpose, doesn’t it?

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) Under New York are all sorts of tunnels, to accommodate gas lines, sewers, subways, and so on. Older cities than New York have more layers, which to some extent describe their histories, with ancient buildings buried under newer ones. People are like that, too, with old pieces of themselves, half-forgotten, obscured by more recently constructed or discovered aspects of who they are. You have a kind of x-ray vision that enables you to see some of what came before, and how much (or little) effort someone’s going to, to hide it. That’s a lot of power, actually. Here’s hoping you use it only for good.

At least one in five people on the planet is Chinese. I just want to remind you of the billions of other perspectives out there. While none of them is particularly more (or less) “right” than yours, they’re certainly worthy of consideration, especially considering your perspective isn’t making you terrifically happy at the moment. Find someone whose life is incredibly distant from your version of your reality (and seems fairly happy) and talk to them; you could benefit from the kind of reality check only they can provide.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) Your reality is twisted. Not in some big obvious way, but in a myriad of subtle ways that you don’t even notice anymore. You’ve become so used to these little screwed up elements of your world that you’ve even come to believe that’s what reality is, or ought to be. Only when someone enters intimately into your life, close enough to witness all the little details, are some of the things you do and think revealed as absurd. That doesn’t mean you have to change them (I know how attached you get). But—this week, anyway—you should at least consider it.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) I just watched a video of fellow Leo Ben Saunders. He’s an athlete and adventurer who does things most people would consider insane, like trying to cross the Arctic ocean alone (no one’s ever managed it). Ben apparently considers risking his life on ventures like these a necessary part of exploring and fulfilling his own potential, something which I can’t help but admire, even if it’s a bit nuts. I hope you can be inspired by his supposed insanity (which I regard as eminently sane) and attempt to delve into your own potential. You know at least the next step towards maximizing your use of your life and talents. This week, take it.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) Some of your friends are bad influences on you. They keep you from being as productive, creative, or efficient as you would be without them. They distract you with frivolity and pointless wastes of time. But, man, aren’t they fun? Your friends are going out of their way to make sure you actually enjoy your life, and not just get a lot done during it. Don’t view them as nuisances out to waste your time. See them, instead, as your saviors; they’re saving you from yourself.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) I’m always amazed that there are so many people looking to embarrass themselves on national television. Either these people are absolutely unaware of themselves, or they’re willing to complete abase themselves for a bit of attention. The reason I mention it is because I suspect you are partially blinding yourself to something about who you are, which could potentially be quite humiliating. An outside opinion—someone you know will be honest, even if it’s hurtful—would, at this point, be most helpful.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)

DROP OFF 33 N. Market St. Ste. 201, Wailuku

I’ve dated several guys who were brought up intensely religious. All these guys, of course, transcended the conservatism they were surrounded with during their youths, but some aspects of their upbringings still stuck with them into adulthood (aspects I apparently found fascinating).

What pieces of your past are you still wearing (and probably trying to hide)? They could be just the bits that make you stand out. This week, try not concealing the scraps of your history you just can’t shed. See how that works out for you; I reckon it’ll be a mixed bag, but slightly more good than bad.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) Where I live, people with the crappy job of delivering restaurant menus and advertising flyers are always ringing the bell to be let into the building, to cram our mailboxes full of the junk. It’s impossible to tell if it’s these unwanted losers ringing, or someone with something legitimate to deliver, so you have to buzz them in regardless. Sound familiar? This week, you have to let in the bad with the good. The bad will get in regardless (in my case they’ll just ring a neighbor’s doorbell), but the good will go away if you don’t answer promptly when they come around.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) Like me, I suspect you find the enormity of the universe both terrifying and comforting. It’s humbling to remember how small and insignificant we are, in the vast scheme of things, but also nice to notice that all the things that are stressing you out are also absolutely inconsequential. The key to happiness this week is in figuring out exactly your place in reality, and occupying that. Look at who you really are, and be realistic about how much space you actually need. From the outside, it may look rather small (or oversized), but I guarantee that once you’re inside it, it’ll fit perfectly.

‘Hair, Job, Teeth, Car’ Date sideways, never up or down. Sideways is usually a more comfortable position for both players and one of the players can be heads up or heads down.

In this position, any significant height difference of either player is minimalized. – Julianne Balmain, author of Office Kama Sutra

We had never been to a singles mixer before. That made deciding what to wear problematic; you’re basically going on a first date over and over again with numerous people on the same night. However, being less single than my companion for the evening, I wasn’t allowed to be too concerned. She, on the other hand, was slightly nerve-wracked.

My girl opted for a high maintenance look, so as not to be misleading.

I’d received the invite for this mixer days before from my long-time acquaintance and fabulous femme fatale, Julie Yoneyama, a.k.a. “CoCo.” She called me and explained how she was getting some people together for a casual party where everyone also happened to be single.

“My requirements are that you have hair, job, teeth and car,” she said. “But the ‘hair’ thing kinda got, you know—Vin Diesel. Now I say it’s okay to be ‘bald by choice.’ But no comb-over—Molokini stays out there, you know?”

As Director of Employee and Community Relations at the Old Lahaina Luau, Julie knows a lot of people. And the more people she meets, the more she realizes “everybody’s single.” So she decided to gather them up—mostly folks in their late 20’s to late 40’s of varying professions—Food and Beverage distributors, activity agents, realtors, television production people, massage therapists, bartenders and chefs.

She decided to hold her first party last Friday at E&O Trading Co. in Lahaina, which has the appropriate ambience for schmoozing and romance, as well as really good happy hour prices. The formula seemed to work. We noticed an attractive crowd of 30 people or more mingling easily, and were pleased with the lack of any high-pressure, meat-market vibe. But CoCo was disappointed this first outing was low on the number of guys.

“Hey, the dating pool is not easy on Maui,” she said. “But if anything, this is a good place for people to network. I even just overheard a friend say, ‘I found someone to do my taxes!’ This one’s okay ‘cause the women are friendly. But next time I’ll have to invite two times more men. And I’ll be sure to tell them, ‘You had your chance.’”

We asked her why dating here on Maui is so difficult. What else does she do to survive?

“Oh yeah, I go to Oahu,” CoCo said. “But that’s ‘cause I’ve lived here 13 years. My theory of Maui is men move over here to be Peter Pan. A lot of these guys have degrees—they could move here and contribute to the community. Instead they take three steps back and say, ‘I don’t have to try hard, but I can still make money.’ If they surf, they keep in shape, and they can still get the younger women.”

It was just past 8 p.m. and we had other obligations so we left, just as we noticed more guys—a lot more, in fact—filing in by the bar. Why must it always be about timing? We waved goodbye to CoCo, who was in the midst of social multi-tasking: making introductions, ordering cocktails and just being fabulous in general.

We loved her.

“Every strong fabulous woman has a gay man trapped inside her,” my friend said. “I have a little Puerto Rican man in me, my other friend has a big German gay man...”

“What about me?” I asked.

“You? Hmm…” she said, momentarily perplexed. “You’re more gay-businessman-whoplays-it-straight.”
