MAUI TIME WEEKLY

Last week, we ran a letter that contained baseless accusations against Best Seafood winner Mama’s Fish House. Though we don’t always agree with the opinions expressed in Editor’s Inbox (it says so there at the end), we do have two key requirements: letters must comment on our coverage, and they must not contain factual falsehoods. The letter in question failed the second requirement. It accused Mama’s of lying in an advertisement by thanking readers for voting it Best Dinner and Best Restaurant. Mama’s has won both of those awards in the past; since establishments aren’t informed of wins in advance, past awards are often cited.

The letter also suggested information about the fish on Mama’s menu is sometimes inaccurate, an accusation for which there is no proof. Though we welcome critical letters, and generally allow even trollish comments to appear on our Web site, publishing the letter in the paper was a serious

error on the part of the editorial department, and we sincerely apologize. …

This year, for the first time, we attached a “local” label to certain categories, meaning the winners had to be locally owned establishments that aren’t part of a national chain. One of the “local” categories was Best Pizza, but we went ahead and crowned a winner and runner-up— Flatbread and BJ’s—that didn’t fit the bill.

That’s not to take away from either one; both serve fine pizza and do more than their share of good work in the community, and we understand why people like and support them. But to follow our own rules, Best Pizza should have gone to Shaka Pizza (1770 S. Kihei Rd., Kihei, 874-0331), with second place going to Dollies Pub & Cafe (4310 L. Honoapiilani Hwy., Kahana, 669-0266).

Congratulations to both. …

Finally, we’d like to acknowledge an omission. We threatened to add a Best Ballot Stuffer category this year, but even though there was a clear winner we neglected to put it in the paper. So “congrats” to Makena Grill, which tried without success to put one over on us. We won’t give other would-be jury riggers any hints as to how they did it (or, rather, attempted to do it). Suffice it to say our crack team of CIA-trained ballot sleuths doesn’t miss much, which, given how long this list of corrections ended up being, is more than we can say for ourselves.

NEWSOFTHEWEIRD REVENGE, GERMAN STYLE Two formerly well-off retired couples in Speyer, Germany, whose nest egg was largely wiped out by investments in sub-prime Florida mortgages, vented their anger by kidnapping their investment adviser, James Amburn, in June. They took him to the vacation home of one of the couples near the Austrian border, bound him like a mummy and beat and tortured him over several days, fracturing two ribs, in repeated attempts to punish him and extort his own property as partial compensation for their losses. Police rescued him after he managed to send a coded message by fax.

MONEY WELL SPENT (1) A resident at 48 Commonwealth Ave. in Boston’s Back Bay neighborhood paid $300,000 in June for one outdoor, uncovered parking space, according to the listing agent. (2) Texas accountant Randy Reeves, 50, paid $1,500 cash in April for the dentist’s mold of the upper and lower teeth of Tiny Tim, which the late singer had given to the seller.

FAMILY BUSINESS Mykal Carberry, 13, was arrested in Hyannis, Mass., in March and charged with arranging for the murder of his 16-year-old half-brother, Jordan, so that, according to police, he could take Jordan’s place atop the family’s prosperous Cape Cod cocaine distribution ring. (The boss’s job was open following the boys’ father’s recent imprisonment.)

FOREGONE CONCLUSIONS (1) Researchers from Cleveland State University, for a recent journal article, assessed the physical traits of 195 female characters from the first 20 James Bond films, revealing that more were brunette than blond and that at least 90 percent were young, slim and of aboveaverage looks. (2) In June, a branch of the National Institutes of Health

awarded a $423,000 grant to the Kinsey Institute to find out why men seem to prefer not to use condoms during sex. (ABC News, reporting the announcement, contacted a sex-advice blogger, who revealed, free of charge, that it’s because the condom reduces sexual sensation.)

KIBBLES NEVER TASTED SO GOOD Nestor Waddell had to rush his 11-yearold Labrador mix, Jack, to the vet in May when he started acting strange during a walk, which had taken him into some bushes. The vet concluded that Jack had discovered and devoured some dry, harvested marijuana. According to Waddell, “[Jack’s] eyes were kind of glossed over…When he was trying to walk, he was looking at his paw, and then looking at the ground and then trying to get his paw to reach the ground, but was unsuccessful.”

DOUBLE JEOPARDY (1) A 34-year-old man survived a singlecar rollover accident in Nelson, Calif., in May, extricating himself and walking away, but was struck and killed minutes later by an Amtrak train as he crossed the railroad tracks. (2) In April in Houma, La., a 23-year-old motorist, having sideswiped a driver waiting to make a turn, drove away without stopping and was killed minutes later when he crashed into another car.

INCOMPETENT CRIMINALS (1) Victor Delfi was arrested and charged with robbing the Lincoln Park Savings Bank in Chicago, having tipped off authorities when he tried to deposit reddye-stained money into his own account at another bank. (2) Marlon Moore, 39, was indicted in Miami in June in what the Internal Revenue Service said was a series of attempts to cheat the U.S. Treasury. Using several aliases, Moore allegedly requested bogus tax refunds in the amounts of $5.959 trillion, $2.975 trillion and $6 trillion.

The home stretch

LC Watch Stop at ten

Eleventh-hour efforts are vital to island planning sk your average Maui resident how the land use and planning process works and you are likely to be greeted with a blank stare, or at best, a confused look.

“The planning process actually works?” would probably be the unspoken response.

Despite bona fide volunteer efforts by citizens dedicating countless hours to review the County’s General Plan, Community Plans, and individual project proposals, Maui’s unchecked urban sprawl advances year-by-year.

Construction workers rally for more jobs, regardless of the location or aesthetics of a new development.

Likewise, a glut of licensed real estate professionals clamors for more inventory, even in a flat market.

The rest of us, visitors included, bemoan the trade-offs to quality of life that accompany unfettered growth.

Traffic, crowded beaches, homogenization with the addition of Mainland corporate chains and the loss of our sense of place are among the impacts felt after the temporary prosperity provided with each project build-out.

What, exactly, is the tipping point at which a coveted place to live begins teetering towards being undesirable? Indeed, many of Maui’s newest residents are those who relocated here because the places they moved from were becoming “too crazy.” Yet there is a paradox built into this paradigm: To a Maui resident, Honolulu would qualify as being too busy, too crazy, too built-up and built-out. But it must still be desirable, or else why would nearly a million people live there?

Those hoping to capture and keep the nostalgic charm of some “Good Old Days” are likely to wind up as frustrated as one trying to catch lightning in a bottle. Recession or no, progress keeps on slipping, slipping into the future—a future that apparently calls for WalMart, Zippy’s, and Krispy Kreme.

Over the past few decades, the planning process has been defined by wellremembered skirmishes over proposed projects: Makena and Wailea 670, North Beach/ Keka‘a, Pulelehua, Pu‘unoa, Spreckelsville Mauka, Kulamalu and the Barto Project. Each region of the island has waged its own turf battles, seeking to slow growth or maintain the character of their own neighborhoods, with varying degrees of success.

A

The future of Maui?

But more often than not, the persistence of landowners and developers wears down resistance to their plans. Promises are given, and concessions made—a bikepath here, some native Hawaiian plant landscaping there—and citizens are left wondering if the whole thing was a slam dunk from the start, the system rigged to favor big money interests. sk an average Maui resident the status of the General Plan Advisory Committee review process, and if they know the policies or proposed urban growth boundaries in the plan, and watch them shrug their shoulders. It’s not that they don’t care, but really, who can keep up with the GPAC’s progress over the 3-plus years? Who remembers that the GPAC passed an amendment back in early 2006 that no new large projects be submitted to the Planning Department while their review was underway, only to have the County’s legal counsel rule that consideration was not within their power?

While most Valley Isle residents have been doing their best just to stay afloat in the choppy waves of economic downturn, planning consultants have been lobbying hard for inclusion of their pet projects in the Maui Island Plan under review. Most of the proposals, in places ranging from Olowalu to Makena, and from North Kihei to Waikapu, seek to convert agricultural lands to urban uses.

Focus Maui speaker (in 2007) and author James Howard Kunstler reminded us in his book, The Long Emergency, that Americans invented urban sprawl, that it is dependent upon “the availability of inordinately cheap oil,” and that it spread with “the efficiency of cancer.” Yet, despite sponsoring a Smart Growth conference eight years ago in 2001, Mauians haven’t

incorporated a great deal of intelligence into their overall planning since then.

The recently completed Hawaii 2050 Sustainability Plan was a statewide planning effort that vowed it would serve as a living document, and not merely gather dust on a shelf after completion. Yet, many of its nine benchmarks for action don’t seem to have gained much traction: develop a more diverse and resilient economy; develop a sustainability ethic; increase production and consumption of local foods and products, particularly agricultural products; preserve and perpetuate our Kanaka Maoli and island cultural values.

Two news reports from last month call into question whether our planning policies are working, and if so, for whom. One story announced developer Jesse Spencer’s plans to build 1100 homes on 257 acres of prime agricultural land adjacent to Ma`alaea, while the other article trumpeted Alexander & Baldwin’s petition approval for designation of Important Agricultural Lands.

Spencer, the septuagenarian patriarch of Spencer Homes, Inc., bought the Ma`alaea acreage a year ago for $10.5 million from California developers who acquired it back in 2004 from W a i l u k u Agribusiness, for $6.6 million. (See: “PrestoChange-o Zoning,”

Much has been made (by us and Maui Dance Advocates, mostly) about the LC’s restrictive dancing rules. Even if you dip into this column only occasionally, chances are you’re aware of the controversy.

But there’s another aspect that hasn’t gotten as much attention: while the dancing rules impact every would-be booty shaker and toe tapper, they really put the squeeze on minors.

This what the pertinent portion of section 08-101-61 of the department’s rules says: Public dancing by minors in licensed premises shall be permitted only when: (1) Accompanied by a legal, responsible adult; and (2) Food service, music, and entertainment are being provided; and (3) An approved area is set aside and designated a non-consumption area where minors shall remain; and (4) The dancing concludes by 10:00 p.m.

The rules go on to allow the Commission to “authorize an extension of hours for special occasions, events, or circumstances.” But in most cases, if you’re under 21 years old (that’s how the LC defines “minor”, as opposed to the more traditional under-18 definition), you cannot dance in a place where alcohol is being served after 10pm.

That means, technically, if a 20-year-old woman wanted to bob her head and wave her arms in a rhythmic fashion to a little slack key guitar at a liquorselling restaurant at 10:01pm in the designated dancing area, she’d still be in violation—or, more accurately, the restaurant would be in violation.

If that seems ridiculous, it’s because it is.

ROBREPORT STRETCH, continued from page 9 8/14/08.) He said he wants to build more affordable homes, such as his recent Waikapu Gardens project, a 412-unit subdivision laid out in a geometric grid on what once served as an agricultural open space buffer between Wailuku and Waikapu towns.

The land at the breezy foothills of the ridge stretching up towards the twenty wind turbines of Kaheawa Pastures obtained Kihei-Makena Community Plan designation as the Ma`alaea Mauka Project District more than a decade ago. However, it remains agricultural in state land use designation and county zoning, and would require changes for urban use.

Needing approvals from both the Land Use Commission and County Council, Spencer could choose to “fast-track” his applications through the state’s 201 H process, which requires that decision makers give affordable housing projects a thumbsup or down within 45 days. Watchdog organizations concede the value in addressing low-cost housing in an expeditious manner, but believe the 201 H statute does not fully incorporate valuable input or conditions along with permit approvals.

JULY 23, 2009

BY ROB PARSONS ROBPARSONS@EARTHLINK.NET

Would Spencer’s proposed Ohana Kai Village project at the Ma`alaea site be truly affordable? A Honolulu Advertiser story from last month said he anticipates that 660 units, or sixty percent, would be priced between 80 and 140 percent of Maui’s calculated annual median income.

Those houses might be priced roughly from $260,000 to $500,000. The remaining 440 homes, or forty percent of the project, would be sold to those qualifying at 140 to 160 percent of median income, that is, earning $113,100 to $120,640.

But the biggest clamor over building in that area hasn’t been over whether true affordability is being offered. It revolves around location. Limited services and infrastructure are available—schools, medical, shops, parks, emergency services, water—and the GPAC also penciled in a prospective alternative transportation corridor as relief for overcrowded highways.

For these reasons, and the “prime ag” land classification, former Mayor Alan Arakawa and his Planning Director Mike Foley didn’t support the previous owner’s bid to develop the property. Current Planning chief Jeff Hunt agrees.

But Hunt and the GPAC are not the final arbiters; that powers lies with the LUC and County Council. Spencer believes most Councilmembers will support Ohana Kai.

MAUI TIME WEEKLY

“I really feel we will sell out,” said Spencer, referring to his proposed houses. cross the Honoapi`ilani Highway, tall fields of sugar cane stretch across Maui’s Central Valley isthmus. A 650-acre triangle owned by the plantation’s parent company, A&B Properties, Inc., was also designated as a Project District in the 1998 KiheiCommunity plan revision. This was the first step in anticipation of eventually building 2,000 housing units adjacent to Kealia Pond, and across from the Maui Electric diesel generating stations. Though a glimmer in the company’s development eye, it is not listed among the current projects portfolio on the A&B Properties website. (That list includes 168 single family units at Haliimaile, Kahului Town Center and `Aina O Kane mixed-use residential commercial projects, 179-acre Maui Business Park Phase II, and four Wailea projects.)

A

hen the LUC approved A&B’s Maui petition to designate Important Agricultural Lands (IAL) last month, the 650 acres of prime ag land at Ma`alaea—community plan designated, but not urban zoned—was left off the list. So were tracts of ag land in North Kihei, 800 acres near Waiale Road (abutting Maui Lani, Kuihelani Highway,

W

and Waiko Road) coveted for a new community, and vast acreage close to the Hana Highway, from Spreckelsville through Paia, across Maliko Gulch and into the Haiku region.

In keeping with new state legislation purported to protect farmlands state wide, a landowner faces more restrictions against developing lands with the IAL designation. But incentives also exist. When selecting 85 percent of lands for IAL designation, landowners can also seek fasttrack reclassification for urban uses on the remaining 15 percent.

Many have suggested that A&B’s motive with the money-losing, polluting Hawaiian Commercial & Sugar (HC&S) plantation is to tie up water resources while land-banking lands held in ag designation, and taxed at a rate sometimes less than a dollar per acre. The boon from converting cane fields to urban projects, they say, more than offsets the financial and public relations problems of the sugar industry.

As the GPAC review heads into the home stretch, it could be time to dust off those benchmarks in the Hawaii 2050 Sustainability Plan. How else can we safeguard our shared future? MTW

COCONUT WIRELESS THE WEEK IN REVIEW

I didn’t go through the Maui public school system and my son has yet to enter it. I am also the son, grandson and brother of public school teachers. Additionally, I think standardized test scores are an incomplete measure of student achievement. I tell you all that as a disclaimer, because I’m about to report some bad news about the County’s schools and I don’t want it to be seen as a shot at public education in general. OK, enough with the windup. Here’s what the headline in today’s Maui News says: “County schools make progress.” Here’s what the first line of the accompanying story says: “Eight out of 32 Maui County public schools met state and federal reading and math benchmarks this year…” When two-thirds of the schools tested are failing and that’s considered “progress,” it’s safe to say we’ve got a long way to go.

SATURDAY, JULY 18

WEDNESDAY, JULY 15 Interesting wrinkle in the ongoing tussle between Gov. Lingle and Hawaii’s labor unions: As reported in today’s Maui News, the state’s mayors are joining forces against the governor, complicating negotiations.

Lingle gets four votes in the contract process and each mayor gets one; that means the Guv has to lure only one mayor to her side to get her way.

In the past, that’s how it’s gone. But this year, according to Mayor Tavares, she and her colleagues have decided to “stay together as a group.”

In the same Maui News piece, Tavares called Lingle’s furloughs “draconian.” We’ve taken shots at the Mayor before and we will again, but it’s nice to see her breaking ranks with Her Majesty.

THURSDAY, JULY 16 Speaking of Lingle’s ever-increasing political isolation: the Dem-controlled legislature overrode 34 of the governor’s vetoes yesterday, crushing the previous state record of 19, according to an AP report. In an early contender for understatement of the year, House Minority Leader and lonely Republican Lynn Finnegan (who opposed the overrides) was quoted as saying her fellow lawmakers “were kind of flexing their muscle.” One veto that was left alone was a tax hike on imported oil. If we’re serious about embracing alternative energy sources and seeing less of our money poured back to Mainland corporate behemoths, that would have been a good place to start.

As the news business (like all other businesses) struggles to stay relevant through reinvention, it’s interesting to ponder the legacy of Walter Cronkite, who died yesterday at age 92. Cronkite was the template for the nightly news anchorman: he embodied the trustworthiness and gravitas that became prerequisites for the job.

What Johnny Carson was to late night stand-up and celebrity interviews, Cronkite was to news. Even his famous tagline—“And that’s the way it is…”—suggested unquestioned authority; he wasn’t asking you, he was telling you. Now, of course, the whole idea of the nightly news seems quaint. We don’t wait for the day’s end to get our news, we digest it in bits and pieces ’round the clock and our sources are as diverse as our means of consumption.

On the surface, this seems like a good thing—and it is, mostly. As long as you teach yourself to sort the good information from the bad, the reliable from the unreliable (and that’s your job as a citizen, by the way), more is better. But while we’ve gained, we’ve also lost. (Isn’t that always the way?) Cronkite (and Carson) offered something that none of their contemporaries can: a collective experience. When you watched them, you knew lots of other people were watching them, too, and watching them the same way you were—on a TV set, in their home, probably on a couch or some other piece of furniture. It may seem silly and sentimental, but in the age of the iPhone and YouTube, microblogging and RSS feeds, the rabid individualism that has always informed the American experience has been kicked into overdrive. We’re more connected than ever (most of us, anyway) but we’re also, in some respects, surprisingly isolated. This isn’t a rant against technology— far from it. It’s just interesting to note how things have changed, and the passing of cultural icons affords an obvious opportunity to do exactly that.

Unlike that other thing, this really will make you go blind.

The County Board of Ethics finally released its opinion in the complaint against Councilman Wayne Nishiki.

(Well, to be fair, it could be a complaint against a different Maui County Councilman who accepted a $100,000 personal loan from a major developer and failed to reveal it until well after the deadline despite repeated reminders and warnings—names were withheld.) What does it say? Not much. Basically, the board tells Nishiki that, as a longtime public servant, he should have known better and that he needs to go back and read the rules concerning financial disclosure.

To call it a slap on the wrist is an insult to slapping… In other news: On this day 40 years ago, no one could utter the phrase, “They put a man on the moon but they can’t [insert thing that’s less difficult than putting a man on the moon].”

“

’ll take it black,” says Bob “Ole” Olson, keeping it simple as he always does. I stash the sugar packets in my pocket and hand him a steaming cup of dark coffee. Lahaina’s merciless sun is winning the battle against the air conditioner inside the small industrial unit that Olsen has transformed into a vintage shaping room. But Ole—calm, collected and cool— gulps his cup of warm Joe, sits it on a shelf and grabs an electric planer from a wall-spanning collage of basic shaping tools: tape measures, hand saws, levels, t-squares, calipers and dozens of his time-tested templates.

Even at 79 years old, Olsen’s still-chiseled arms glide the planer down the rails of a Styrofoam blank with effortless precision. Ole operates like a surgeon, but one who wears board shorts instead of scrubs.

His smile illuminates the room. His tanned bare feet appear snow-covered from the two inches of foam dust accumulated on the floor.

After a few passes with the planer, Ole looks up at me and explains, “I’m so happy to still be doing what I’m doing. I’ve always

le was born in Long Beach, California on November 27, 1929, one month after the stock market crashed and the Great Depression began.

At 18, cruising down to San Onofre in his Ford Model A, Ole was one of a small handful of Mainland surfers. His redwood surfboard was ridiculously heavy and the waters were frigid without a wetsuit.

“It’s funny when I look back at it. We never thought surfing would become so popular,” Ole remembers. “We just thought of it as a passing fad.”

After serving a tour in the Korean War, Ole returned to California and took a job teaching woodshop at Garden Grove High School in Orange County. During his summer vacations he shaped surfboards and sold them out of an old quonset hut in Sunset Beach, just north of Huntington.

A close friend of Ole’s, Dick Metz, is the founder of The Surfing Heritage Foundation, which serves as the unofficial archive of all things surfing. “That old shop of Ole’s was definitely one of the first surf shops ever,” says Metz. “Sure, there

ued shaping into the early ’60s, as surfboard materials switched from balsa and redwoods to polyurethane foam and fiberglass.

But instead of pursuing it full time, Ole stuck with teaching wood-shop and sold the rights to his business to Hobie Alter. Alter would continue to sell surfboards under the distinguished “Ole” name.

As the surfing population continued climbing worldwide, Metz believes few of the surfers from that early generation realized, or even cared about, the sport’s monetary potential. “We were from the Depression generation, and we just want-

foam,” says legendary surfer and original Ole team rider Corky Carroll. “But being a true craftsman, he was never a high volume guy. I don’t think he ever wanted to put out 10,000 boards a year—he’s happier with a few good ones.” n 1971, Ole moved to Maui, worked as a finish carpenter and eventually started making custom surfboards full-time.

To this day, he continues to create some of the finest surfboards in the business.

Although the shaping industry has undergone massive changes with regard

done things a certain way and that’s always worked for me.” The surrounding clippings, letters, autographed celebrity photos, posters and trophies are a testament that both surfing and shaping have been good to Ole—and Ole good to them.

“We were never into it for the money.”

Ole’s handcrafted approach to shaping has always emphasized the quality of his product over profit. “Ole has always been one of those guys who can make art out of

to materials, technology and theory, Ole’s methodology remains the same.

“Bob is one of the few shapers with a link to the beginning of modern surfing,” says Matt Kinoshita, owner of Kazuma Surfboards. “He has knowledge and

experience that younger shapers like myself will never know.”

Ole uses his hands and eyes to make his cuts instead of relying on computer programs. Because of this, Kinoshita says Ole’s handcrafted boards can’t be reproduced by today’s technology. “I believe that Bob knows his tools so well that it would actually be harder to get the same perfect, finished product that he gets by hand-shaping. Each of his creations is a special work of art that no machine could duplicate.”

To the surfboard connoisseur, purchasing a good Ole board is like investing in a blue chip stock. Randy Rarick is a surf industry luminary, the man behind the Triple Crown of Surfing and event producer of the annual Hawaiian Islands Vintage Surf Auction. “We actually won’t have any classic Ole boards at the auction this year,” says Rarick. “And I think the reason is that whoever has a really good Ole simply doesn’t want to get rid of it.“ Continues Rarick: “While other shapers have come and gone, Ole’s work has transcended five generations of surf-

And so a classic Ole board from the ‘60s could easily sell from $5,000 to $10,000 at the auction.” s I listen to Ole talk story from across the shaping room, it becomes clear that he’s one of the most singular characters I’ve ever met, with some of the best stories. His shaping has built friendships with surfing celebrities like Jimmy Buffet; a signed photograph from Jimmy reads: “Ole, thanks for the board, she’s beautiful, and we don’t look bad either for a bunch of old farts.”

As a prank, Ole once bought a cheap drum set for the six-year-old son of some friends, knowing the little guy would keep them up all night. Some 30 years later, that six-year-old had turned into a man and introduced himself to Ole as Tris Imboden, the drummer for Chicago.

When he was 66, Ole was featured in the second edition of a book by Etta Clark titled, Growing Old Is Not for Sissies: Portraits of Senior Athletes. Another legendary Maui surfer, the late Woody Brown, who surfed until he was 89, is featured on the cover of the same book holding an Ole

There must be something in the water.

Before we say our goodbyes, Ole and I discuss why we love surfing so much. “It has something to do with the chemistry of moving water and all those positive ions bouncing around,” he says. “Surfers are surrounded by, and addicted to, that positive energy.”

But Ole believes this holds true for all people. “Ask anyone to close their eyes and imagine a peaceful place, and most people will describe themselves besides an ocean, river, lake, or waterfall,” he says. “Moving water puts people at ease.”

Pulling away from Ole’s shop, with his shaka in my rearview, I think about how some people can have that same effect on us—and how Ole’s shaping goes far beyond foam and fiberglass. MTW

Executive Sous Chef and Kitchen Manager Rory Butts graciously takes time to sit and speak with us while we finish a decadent dessert of his doing.

Nestled at the end of South Kihei Road, Sarento’s On The Beach is quintessential Wailea-style dining. One of Tri Star Restaurant Group’s tetrad of

establishments, everything oozes effervescent South Side chic—crisp, rich, intimate, comfortable. The restaurant’s low makai wall reveals its hallmark open-air panorama that seems to spill you right atop the sands of Keawakapu, a choice view for diners as they dive into the culinary fusion waters of Mediterranean meets Pacific Rim. The genuine hospitality of its superb team makes this acclaimed upscale experience delightfully warm and unpretentious.

Chef Butts speaks with candid sincerity about the opportunities and challenges of a chef’s trade. He details his commitment to topnotch product—sought out domestically and abroad—as well as the careful orchestration that’s needed to balance seasonal offerings with his own epicurean innovation. Yet no matter where the conversation takes us, Chef Butts always relates his own passions back to the vision of the company at large. “We hire by the heart. If someone comes to me and says, ‘Chef, I’m here for the food. I’m here to learn and to use the best

product . . . That’s the guy I want in the kitchen,” he says.

From the kitchen to the table, the staff works to make the food the star attraction.

After all, service and view aside, I am here for fine dining.

And dine finely I do. Were a rainbow distilled into a sweet and savory dish, it would be Sarento’s Mango & Avocado Ceviche. A Molokai sweet potato chip towers from the martini glass, an indigo obelisk nestled at the edge of a spring pallet mound of creamy avocado and mango, delicately cubed and contrasted against the crunchy bursts of tart lilikoi. Bridging the colors and flavor of the deep, dusky chip and early morning avo are bold toppings of spicy heart-shaped microgreens and—a personal favorite—the garnet flesh of vibrant blood orange, a late-season treat.

The roasted beet carpaccio was the table favorite; I found the hazelnuts to be the most delightful element of the golden pea sprout and daikon salad, atop the Venn Diagram of ultra slim slices of burgundy and gold beets, dressed with a horseradish vinaigrette and sprigs of watercress. The al dente Butternut Squash Risotto, with highly complementary pumpkin seed oil, an orange pistachio gremolata and slivers of shaved shiitake mushrooms, was a close second.

Named for Placourakis’s granddaughter, the Gabriella salad is a lovely chopped mix of Maui onions, cherry tomatoes, feta, baby artichokes and bay shrimp. My taste buds rejoiced with the salad’s crown jewel: a long, thick slice of avocado, first lightly grilled with the charred outsides carefully

cut off, leaving it soft and sweet but permeated with a savory smokiness.

If you save room for dessert, the Chocolate Profiterole and Tiramisu with a teardrop-cut ladyfinger sent straight from heaven, is purely divine.

If Sarento’s seems like a treat out of reach, fear not. The recently intorduced Starlight Menu, offered from 8pm until the last seating at 9:30pm, allows diners to indulge on three courses from a select menu—salad, entrée and dessert—for a mere $25.

Economic options aside, Sarento’s offers a dining experience with flavor and heart that’s worth every penny. MTW

Hyatt Regency Resort and Spa, Kaanapali 200 Nohea Kai Drive 667-4540 $61.90 show only $116.10 with dinner teetering net-less across the high wire could have easily taken a misstep and fallen on me.

I’d been holding my breath for most of the show—which included a variety of stunning acrobatic feats interspersed with theatrical and comedic performances. We’d seen acrobats, contortionists, magicians, extreme hula hoopers and even a cube manipulator.

Cirque Polynesia producer Cornell “Tuffy” Nicholas explained to me that the show tells the tale of several cirque performers who get stranded on an island inhabited by ancient Polynesians. The two groups come together to learn the other’s form before blending them into a modern hybrid of Polynesian circus.

The storyline isn’t essential to the show, however. Much more important is the blending of two artistic genres and the perfect execution of difficult circus acts performed in a lively theater atmosphere. Nicholas achieves that in an entertaining, if sometimes obvious, way.

At the beginning of the show, after a comical but long opening act by an elaborately dressed and painted Polynesian “warrior” (funnier if you or someone you’re with gets pulled up on stage), the circus begins as one group of traditional Polynesians perform a quick hula while a set of outrageously costumed cirque performers begin a hula hoop routine involving one woman impressively spinning her full body length in rings.

The theme seems to fall away after that as more serious circus acts follow. I had to peek through my fingers

to watch as one woman dangled precariously from a rope by her ankle while holding another rope that swung her partner around in dizzying circles by the neck.

The small but impressive cast is pulled mostly from two longtime circus families, the Wallendas and Arestovs, but includes artists from Brazil, Germany and Eastern Europe, and even a few from Oahu.

Perhaps the most remarkable performance came from rola bola artist Simon Arestov, who climbed to impossible heights aboard a rickety, rocky contraption built of cylinders and tiny platforms.

It’s a balancing feat that attains the skill and difficulty levels usually reserved for the more popular (and more elaborate) Cirque Du Soleil productions.

But despite all the death-defying acts that we saw that night a different type of performance stole the show. Just to the left of the main stage, in her own tiny spotlight, stood cellist Diane Rubio. Petite as she was, this dark beauty commanded attention behind an instrument taller than she. Local artists, Rubio and her partner, percussionist Daniel Cruces, perform a magnetic, live original score that melds rock and classical music for a sound that stays perfectly in tune with the action on stage. After the show Rubio hinted she’s been practicing aerials and may someday take her incredible Cirque performance off the ground.

“The show is evolving,” said Rubio.

“We’ve just joined the circus, and this is only the beginning.” MTW

Not ‘Half’ bad Latest Potter flick is one of the best despite epic runtime y teen years were sometimes tough, but I’ve got nothing on Harry Potter.

Harry Potter and the HalfBlood Prince

★★★★★ ★ Rated PG/153 min.

Daniel Radcliffe returns as the title role, the “chosen one” asked by headmaster Dumbledore (Michael Gambon) to keep an eye on the eccentric returning professor (Jim Broadbent). Meanwhile, Harry’s best friends Hermoine (Emma

Watson) and Ron (Rupert Grint) battle the deadliest aspect of their young adult lives: hormones.

The biggest problem with this film is the same flaw that ails the other Potter films: it’s overstuffed and too long. There is so much here that it’s easy to overlook the wonderful Quidditch match (always a highlight of these movies) or the eye popping opening set piece.

The PG rating is just right, as the film is as scary and intense as an Indiana Jones or Lord of the Rings movie. Each Potter film has gotten progressively darker, which fits the character’s gradual maturity. But the scariest things in this film, by far, are the duel performances by HeroFiennes Tiffin (Ralph Fiennes’ nephew) and Frank Dillane as the young Voldemort (the super-villain of the series); their scenes will give you serious chicken skin.

The film this entry reminded me the most of is The Empire Strikes Back which not only has a similar closing image but also a likewise climax that is downbeat,

Magic is no match for teen angst. moving and hopeful. Director David Yates has made this one of the most visually rich entries in the series, with atmospheric shots of dreamlike landscapes. The cast is in top form, particularly the core three actors. Yet it’s Gambon’s commanding performance that is the stand out.

Those who are a sequel behind or are new to Potter may be playing catch-up for the first 30-minutes, but the uninitiated will likely be drawn into the story.

I once thought the series peaked with the third entry, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, as the special effects

in the following sequels have had more impact on me than the stories. I was skeptical that the sixth entry in an eight-year old film series could offer anything new or make me care. Boy, was I wrong.

Despite being overlong, this is funny, emotionally rich and exciting stuff, with action scenes that hold their own next to the other, bigger summer blockbusters.

I’ll admit that I’m a mere Muggle and not a rabid Potter fan, but at the end of the new film, I found myself truly touched and excited for the next installment, which is a first for me. MTW

THIS WEEK’S PICKS Spawn, baby, spawn

Talkin’ story

Friday (July 24), 7:30-9:30pm, Maui Ocean Center, Ma’alaea

Saturday (July 25), 1pm, MCC

Nobody knows why coral spawn at the precise moment they do. Whether it’s the moon, the tide, the temperature of the water or something beyond our sensory abilities is a mystery scientists have yet to successfully deduce. When the event does occur, it’s quite a spectacle: millions of glowing orbs, floating around in eerie formations before settling into the substrate, potentially becoming the progenitor of a coral reef. Chances, of course, are slim, what with all the predators that tend to lurk.

For anyone who wants to see this take place before 2010, this Friday’s the night.

Maui Ocean Center will be home to several spawning sites within its walls, featuring primarily rice coral, illuminated by red spotlights. Naturalists will be on hand to describe what’s happening. Plus, the Hawaiian Islands National Marine Humpback Whale Sanctuary will provide live footage of the spawning that will take place in the center’s Discovery Pool.

R e s e r v a t i o n s required. $27 general/$22 keiki.

One of the most crucial elements of identity is the narrative. Individuals and cultures alike rely on stories to reinforce who they are and why they do what they do. Just look at Republicans. One of the things that made them so successful in the first half of the decade was the fact that they had an impossibly simple narrative about who we are and why we fight (all crap, of course)... I mean, can you name a country song that doesn’t tell a story (“Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy” notwithstanding)? In one form or another, stories also serve as a primary source of recreation. This weekend’s Talk Story Conference will feature workshops with storytellers from all walks. George Kaimiola will offer a compelling discussion of Lahaina’s history. Australian Annie Eyers will discuss her journey across Australia with Aboriginal guides. Wajuppa Tossa will discuss the revival of Thai folk tales. At 7pm the event will culminate with a “concert” featuring the conference’s keynote speakers. $25.

MAUI TIME WEEKLY

BY KATE BRADSHAW

Disco sucks

Alive at five

Saturday (July 25), 10pm, Casanova, Makawao

Sunday (July 26), 2pm, Casanova, Makawao

From time to time the ’70s genre that brought us tunes like “Funky Town” is brought back to life and reanimated for no particular reason, other than perhaps novelty.

This doesn’t mean that disco doesn’t suck, at least the bubblegum offshoots that came to overshadow disco’s funky origins. Orange County-based DJ Poppa is doing something different. A founding member of Double-Fisted Underground and Smartbeat Sound System, he and DJs DirtyLo and Scotty Coats constitute a project called Suck My Disco, which distills the more soulful elements of disco and sets them to a different beat. The result is a rich, highly danceable sound that lacks the aspects of disco that make most of us cringe.

Poppa’s Facebook fan page gives a pretty solid description of their sound: “We enjoy and demand wicked mind-massaging disco and weird spaced-out dance rock…” Not bad.

Saturday’s show is brought to us by ‘a‘a Disco, which hosts Mainland and neighbor island DJs “who are instrumental in the cosmic disco edit craze” in an attempt to foster the genre on the Valley Isle. DJ Keegan also plays. $5 before 11pm.

Twice monthly, Maui’s airwaves–and Internet tubes worldwide–are infused with something unique and dynamic. Every second and fourth Sunday Casanova hosts an afternoon soiree featuring acoustic performances by local and national acts alike. Said performances are broadcast courtesy of the sound wizards at Mana‘o Radio 91.5 FM, the nonprofit community station that is the beneficiary of these shows. As of this week, Manao’s Upcountry Sundays has been running strong for a whole five years–not bad for a place with so transient a population.

Past acts include Vince Esqire, BrownChicken BrownCow String Band, Willie K and many, many others. (They even asked me to play once.) In celebration they’re going all out for this Sunday’s installment. Slated performers include the Mana‘o Radio Orchestra (Unplugged), Dr. Nat, Eddie Tanaka, Steve Grimes, Randall Rospond and Steve Sargenti, among many others. Pints of some of the most excellent tap beers around will be available, as will some killer pizza. Plus: free birthday cake. $7.

SIGNLANGUAGE

CAERIEL CRESTIN SIGN.LANGUAGE.ASTROLOGY@GMAIL.COM

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)

It’s good that you’re willing to experiment, try something new, or a new way of doing things. It’s all too easy for the fixed signs (Leo, Aquarius, Scorpio, and Taurus) to get stuck in a rut, unable or unwilling to change. So the more adventurous and open-minded you can be, the better. However, that doesn’t mean that every experiment is bound to be a success. This one, for instance, might be better classified as a flop. You gave it a good go—now it may be time to go back to your old tried-and-true methods, at least in this particular case.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)

I know your excellent intentions have mostly to do with doing a good job, but you’re actually making the situation far more complicated than it needs to be. Perhaps you’re overanalyzing it a bit? Take a step back and access your most pragmatic side. Although they seem useful, you can probably eliminate 75% of the steps between your starting point and end goal, and still get there just fine—probably without annoying or overworking anyone, including yourself. Yes, some theoretical situations might throw a wrench in the works, but why don’t you just deal with them if and when they happen, instead of trying to prepare for every eventuality? You (and everyone involved) will ultimately be much more relaxed, and have loads more fun.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)

An implied threat isn’t the same as an actual gun to your head, but it can certainly feel as intense.

Many people act out of fear of what might happen, even if it’s never been explicitly spelled out. While it would take courage (or foolhardiness) to hold your ground with a loaded pistol at your temple, it’s no less courageous to not back down to the more subtle ominous hints you’ve been facing. It just won’t be as obvious to anyone watching. That shouldn’t matter. Marshal your bravery and stand up for what you believe in. That’s the right thing to do, gun or no gun.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)

You can only dance around the subject for so long. You’ve been stonewalling and avoiding giving a straight answer, because you have an inkling about what kind of fallout might result, and because it’s just easier leaving things open-ended. But eventually you will get pinned down and forced to say something conclusive, once and for all. If it gets to that point, I don’t need to tell you: things will not go well. Do yourself a favor and control the situation by taking a stand while you’re still on your feet. Trying to do so while you’re on your back just won’t work.

SAGGITARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)

When did you start taking doormat lessons? I almost didn’t recognize you lying there, with footprints all over your back. It’s not your usual style to let people walk all over you. Where’s your fire, your spirit of independence and rebellion? Perhaps you lost track of it for a bit? Luckily, it’s lurking right nearby, waiting to blaze up in an inferno of glory and light. You just need to give it a bit of a reminder spark. A few of the newest people in your life might be shocked and surprised to see this fiery, tempestuous you. The rest of us, of course, will welcome back that hotheaded rabble-rouser like an old friend.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19)

Children, of course, often need goading, pushing, and scolding in order to be convinced to do what’s right, especially when it’s not the easy thing. Although theoretically adults should have outgrown this juvenile tendency, and be willing to do the right thing despite how difficult or uncomfortable it may be, as it turns out many grownups are essentially spoiled children in disguise; they’re loathe to take any route but the easiest way out. Since you’re in a position to potentially help steer someone down a more ethically responsible path, won’t you please do so this week?

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18)

People might not take kindly to you going around and pointing out the truth. Yes, it’s the truth, and people ought to be able to take it, but somehow in reality exposing falsehoods, bursting bubbles, and shattering illusions never goes over well. I would hate for you to give up your noble crusade, but I would advise you to pick your battles more carefully than you have so far. Waging a war on too many fronts will just doom you to failure. Pick a few where some bold truth-telling might do some actual good, and just let the rest slide (at least for now).

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20)

Stories keep changing because memories are malleable. They’re not like a DVD, burned with a certain bit of video and audio that can be endlessly replayed without variation. We perpetually edit or rewrite them, or even cast them with different actors. Few people acknowledge this, and regard their recollections as inviolate as words chipped into a stone tablet. That, however, is simply not the case. Ask any two people about an event they were both privy to and the details they recall will be so different you’ll doubt they were in the same place. Because this week’s decision is mostly based on past events, try to collect as much hard evidence as you can, instead of relying on how people remember something, since that’s not very likely to be particularly accurate.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)

Right now you’re like a seven-foot basketball player. You think you’ve got the game wrapped up just because you can do a slam dunk. What you’ve forgotten is that that only works if you can get the ball to the basket. A wily five-footer with great aim could still beat you to the shot from the three-point line.

Basically, what I’m trying to get at is: don’t get cocky. Yes, you have the advantage in this particular match, but it’s by no means a sure thing. You’ve still got to bring your A-game and play it like the other team is in it to win it. They are.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20)

Like a visible panty-line or a boob job, a whiff of desperation will attract as many people as it puts off.

But are they the kind of people you’d want in your life? It’s a tricky line to walk. Of course, you want to be real and genuine, but how hard you try to draw someone into your life could have a direct correlation as to whether or not you succeed. Too little and they’ll decide you’re not interested and move on—too much and you’re likely to freak them out. Naturally, finding the perfect line to walk between the two extremes is exceedingly difficult; nevertheless, you should get a little more practice giving it a go this week.

Guess the exact amount in the KPOA Jackpot and you and your guest will Come-Along with us to Las Vegas courtesy of Vacations-Hawai‘i, Neighbor island connections courtesy of Go!. All winners will receive Come-Along gifts from Minit Stop and Coca-Cola.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)

A neglected garden will quickly become overrun with weeds, because they are by definition, hardier, more aggressive, and better suited to the environment than the cultivated flowers and vegetables we would rather grow there. In order to ensure that the plants we want to flourish do so, human intervention of one sort of another is required. The situation before you is much the same. As much as you’d rather not get your hands dirty, and simply sit back and watch the situation unfold, it’s guaranteed to play out in a way that’s not to your satisfaction if you don’t take a hand in shaping it. Roll up your sleeves, grab a spade, and get to work.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)

If you were creating a road, from scratch, to connect points A and B, you could of course just draw a straight line between the two, and simply blast the shit out of anything in your way. The result would be a very efficient highway, but at what cost? The other option, of course, is to take into account who or what is between the two places, and plot a course that avoids destroying most of the nicest bits, resulting naturally in a much more meandering (but probably prettier, and cheaper) road that still does the job. Either option is available to you now. Which, though, will you be happiest with, long-term? Please choose that.
