A Celebration of Life In memory of Jacquline Wenzler-Stevens

Jacquline Wenzler-Steves was diagnosed at the age

of 5 with Ewingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sarcoma, an aggressive form of bone cancer. She passed away on May 6, three weeks after her 9th birthday. She was the amazing daughter of Annette Wenzler-Steves and Maui FireďŹ ghter Vince Steves, and the sister of 12-year-old Dominique.

Date: Sunday, May 23 4pm

Location: Maui Country Club in Spreckelsville, Maui This will be an upbeat, joyous affair in appreciation of having Jacquline in our lives.

Bring your kids and wear bright colored Aloha clothing or beachwear. This is a fun and happy gathering at the pool and on the beach for all families.

Light pupus will be served. Please be aware the family asks that NO black be worn.

At sunset, the group will scatter ďŹ&#x201A;owers on the beach in a goodbye to Jacquline. Feel free to bring hand cut ďŹ&#x201A;owers for sunset. However, please do not bring expensive leis, ďŹ&#x201A;ower arrangements, sympathy cards, or donations.

The family feels the Maui community has done more than enough to help and support them over the past years.

The Week in Review HYPER LOCAL

the record straight by saying...wait for it...that his quotes were taken out of context. OK, let's get some context. Here's another quote from the same story: “Mathematically, it becomes next to impossible [for Democrats] to win this race unless you stuff the ballot box.” And another: “I’m not calling it a day by any means. But the bulk of the ballots have already been turned in. It is almost anticlimactic.” (When Djou said that, less than 30 percent of ballots were in.) Then, already looking ahead to a November showdown: “Ed and Colleen still have to go through each other before they’ll come for me.” Unless Djou was unwittingly slipped some hubris pills right before

As Na Koa Ikaika prepares for its inaugural season (the first home game is June 8 against the Tijuana Cimarrones), the team got some national love from Baseball America. The piece briefly chronicles the on-again, off-again history of pro ball in Hawaii and addresses the question most people ask: how will you get other teams to fly all the way over there? “When you're recruiting players and competing against other leagues, you're talking about the whole picture,” Na Koa Ikaika owner Rick Berry told Baseball America. “One of our road trips is Maui.

If I'm a player, I look at that, and [say], 'Gosh, I could be on a bus for 18 hours driving through a desolate area or I could be on a plane over to Maui.'” Solid logic.

The team, for those who haven't followed the story, is affiliated with the independent Golden Baseball League (GBL), which means the roster will be a mix of young up-and-comers hoping to get noticed and older guys trying to keep the dream alive. The GBL has had former MLB stars in its ranks, including stolen base king Rickey Henderson and steroid user/ whistleblower Jose Canseco. In the end, even if it isn't the Big Leagues, it should be a fun brand of baseball and a welcome new entertainment option for Central Maui. And seriously, how can you not like a league that has a team from Tijuana? (For more info, visit nakoaikaikamaui.com.)...

requests. As a journalist, I'm conditioned to oppose on principle anything that decreases government transparency. Yet I like this law. Damn you, birthers!.... There's something sadly symbolic about shipping our garbage to the Mainland, but that's exactly what will happen soon—after a few bureaucratic hurdles are cleared—according to a May 18 Honolulu Advertiser dispatch.

Sure, a lot of our garbage is created by Mainland tourists, so in a sense it's fair to ask other, larger states to help shoulder the load.

On the other hand, Hawaii didn't enact a bottle bill until 2004, 32 years after Oregon pioneered the idea in 1972. (Perhaps not coincidentally, Oregon is now a popular

Hawaii didn’t enact a bottle bill until 2004, 32 years after Oregon pioneered the idea.

LOCAL It's an ironclad rule: whenever a politician says something he regrets in front of a reporter, he suddenly becomes very concerned about context. Like last week, when Charles Djou told D.C.-based The Hill that the race for Hawaii's 1st District Congressional seat was “pretty much over.”

After the predictable uproar from Ed Case and Colleen Hanabusa, Djou tried to set

the interview, I'd say the context is spot on.

And the thing is, if polls and behind-thescenes rumblings are to be believed, he's right.... In March, I spoke with Janice Okubo from the state Department of Health about the 40-50 requests her office fields each month for Obama's birth certificate. “The majority of the requests,” Okubo said, “are coming from about four or five people.” Those people would be members of the “birther” movement, a loose coalition of crazies who think the most important issue facing our nation is whether the President was born in Kenya.

The birthers already have sanity against them and now there's a new law: Act 100, which Gov. Lingle signed this week. The law amends Section 92F-11 of the Hawaii Revised Statues and allows an agency to deny “duplicative” government records

destination for other places' refuse, the “fifth largest importer of garbage in the country” according to a 2009 Portland Insight report.)

Clearly we have to get creative to address our swelling landfills. I'm just not sure sticking a bunch of trash on a boat and waving goodbye qualifies.... When I moved to Hawaii from the Bay Area, I didn't leave my heart in San Francisco but I did leave my baseball fandom. Excited as I am about attending Na Koa Ikaika games, I will always be a San Francisco Giants fan; it's in my blood. So it was with disappointment (not to mention confusion) that I discovered Hawaii is in the Giants' blackout zone. This means if a game isn't sold out 48 hours in advance, airings on the MLB Extra Innings TV package or the MLB At Bat app (which I have) aren't shown. The idea is to get people in the team's market to go to the stadium. This would (sort

of) make sense if I still lived 20 miles north of the Golden Gate Bridge. Now that I'm separated from my team by 2,500 miles of ocean, the policy seems a tad excessive. I did a little digging and discovered that Hawaii Giants fans aren't the only ones getting the shaft: the Los Angeles Dodgers, Anaheim Angels and Kurt Suzuki's Oakland A's also claim the Aloha State as part of their turf. Curiously, the two other West Coast teams—the Seattle Mariners and San Diego Padres—don't.

After reading an Advertiser piece where an Oceanic Time Warner rep basically said, don't ask us, ask the teams, I placed calls to all four of the offending clubs and Major League Baseball. None of those calls—or several follow-ups—were returned by deadline, but I'll keep at it. Not because this is a hugely important story, but because I want to watch the game. And I bet I'm not the only one....

NOT LOCAL I don't mean to keep picking on Alabama.

(Last week, if you missed it, I had fun with a campaign attack ad that used a candidate's purported belief in evolution against him.)

But come on, 'Bama, meet me halfway: This week, a teacher in Jefferson County (ground zero for the Civil Rights movement) used a hypothetical assassination attempt on Obama to teach his geometry students about angles.

When I saw the headline, I was fairly certain it was an Onion parody. Sadly, no. According to a student quoted by the AP, the unnamed teacher “was talking about angles and said, 'If you're in this building, you would need to take this angle to shoot the president.'”

The Secret Service investigated and determined there was no “credible threat.”

To Obama, perhaps. But what about the young minds of Alabama? ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/coconut48

Cell Phone Hang-Up With broad support, a countywide ban on driving while gabbing appears inevitable. But is it necessary?

T

he exemption of hands-free devices seems like a good compromise, but studies show that hands-free devices require just as much brain power. The National Safety Council compiled research findings from more than 30 studies into a white paper released in March. “Drivers using hands-free and handheld cell phones

“I’m not sure how far we have to legislate common sense to people,” said Councilmember Mike Victorino.

“That’s the real challenge we face.”

“I’m not sure how far we have to legislate common sense to people,” Victorino said.

“That’s the real challenge we face.”

Saving lives, preventing injuries and avoiding costly repairs are intended results of the bill, said Victorino. “If we save one life, one injury, one accident, then it would be a bill that was well worth it,” he said.

Using a cell phone takes more attention off the road than other distractions, according to Committee of the Whole Chairman Mike Molina. “When you eat or drink, your attention is taken for just a moment. But when you are on the phone talking your brain is engaged differently,” Molina said. “It takes a lot more brain power.”

Under the bill, the first citation will cost a driver no more than $100. Subsequent citations can reach up to $250. Hitting people in the pocketbook is one way to make them pay attention, according to Victorino.

The law doesn’t ban hands-free devices, such as Bluetooth systems. Cell phones may also be used to call 9-11, while two-way radios will be allowed for some businesses, such as taxi services. Meanwhile, some portable navigation systems will be outlawed and drivers with a learner’s permit or provisional license will not be able to use even hands-free devices.

have a tendency to 'look at' but not 'see' objects,” the white paper reported. “Estimates indicate drivers using cell phones look at but fail to see up to 50 percent of the information in their driving environment.”

Wendy Kaulia, a Kula resident, currently uses a hands-free device for business calls when driving. In her opinion, carrying a conversation with either device is equally distracting. “Your mind is not on your driving or the car in front of you or the car beside you or the bicyclist or the pedestrian,” she said. “It’s distracting.”

Hands never have to leave the wheel with devices such as Bluetooth, Victorino argued. The current bill also acts as a place to start, he said, and amendments can be made as necessary.

In the end, supporters emphasize, this is about safety.

“Our society has become so accustomed to modern conveniences that we have forgotten about the basics of driver safety,” said Molina.

Another testifier at the Committee of the Whole meeting, Mike Moran, said that he uses his phone while driving for business purposes, but believes that the inconvenience the bill will produce does not outweigh the risk of someone being injured or killed. “We are on Maui,” he said. “We can slow down a little bit to do things.” ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/upfront48

biquitous as they are, handheld electronic devices aren’t the only thing that distracts drivers.

Grabbing a quick cheeseburger on the way to work, applying lipstick in the rearview mirror before a date, changing a CD and even reading or watching movies in the car are all common occurrences that can be just as distracting—and just as deadly.

And there already exists a law concerning inattentive drivers. Section 291-12 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes states that a fine of no more than $1,000 is applicable to “Whoever operates any vehicle without due care or in a manner as to cause a collision with, or injury or damage to, as the case may be, any person, vehicle or other property.” Isn’t that broad enough to allow cops to pull over people who are gabbing on their phones?

The new bill is meant to be preventative, according to Councilmember Mike Victorino. It aims to prevent an accident before it can happen, while the current law is concerned with the aftermath of an accident caused by inattentive drivers, he said in an interview.

Outlawing handheld electronic devices is a step to raise awareness about how drivers use phones to hold conversations, send text messages or read e-mails, according to Victorino. Drivers may also become more aware of other distractions and will avoid fiddling with the radio or wait until they get home to eat that burger. At least that’s the idea.

large, deep scar runs vertically across Andrew Dunne’s stomach.

The local bicyclist was riding through a school zone when a driver on a cell phone made a right turn and hit him. Dunne’s spleen was removed and his medical bills amounted to $100,000.

The driver, meanwhile, walked away without so much as a citation, according to Dunne.

Dunne stood behind a podium and recounted his story at a Committee of the Whole meeting held May 12. He testified in support of a bill that would outlaw the use of handheld electronic devices while driving in Maui County. The amended bill was unanimously passed, and will now be considered by the County Council next month. If the bill is passed, it will take effect July 1.

“When I proposed the bill, the number one issue was safety,” said Councilmember Joseph Pontanilla.

The ordinance received overwhelming support from testifiers, the Council, Maui County police and the prosecutor’s office.

Barring some unforeseen twist, it will become law. On the surface, this seems like a cut-and-dried case. Similar laws have already been passed on Oahu and the Big Island; it was only a matter of time before Maui followed suit. But, despite its popularity and perceived inevitability, there are questions surrounding the ban. Such as: do we really need it?

RIGHTS AND WRONGS (1) In April, a high official of the European Union called for member-nations to subsidize â&#x20AC;&#x153;vacationsâ&#x20AC;? for seniors, the disabled and those too poor to afford one.

Said Commissioner (for enterprise and industry) Antonio Tajani, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Traveling for tourism today is a right.â&#x20AC;? (2) In April, the town of Olathe, Kansas, became the second city in two years to settle lawsuits filed by citizens who were arrested for flashing their middle fingers at police officers, thus appearing to acknowledge that flipping the bird contemptuously at a cop is expressive conduct protected by the First Amendment.

(Philadelphia paid out $50,000; Olathe, one-sixteenth the size, paid out $5,000.)

BREAST OF THE STORY Michelle Taylor, 34, was sentenced in Elko, Nevada, in April to life in prison, solely for the crime of forcing a 13-year-old boy to touch her breasts, twice. The sentence was mandatory under a certain state law, but, said her lawyer, â&#x20AC;&#x153;She is getting a greater penalty...than if she killed [the boy].â&#x20AC;? She could be eligible for parole after 10 years.

STRANGE COURTSHIP Baltimore County (Maryland) Judge Darrell Russell Jr., presiding over a March domestic violence case in which the woman obviously had changed her mind about blaming the boyfriend, performed the couple's marriage ceremony in his chambers after temporarily halting the boyfriend's trial. Earlier, Judge Russell had informed the woman that she could not refuse to testify based on â&#x20AC;&#x153;marital privilegeâ&#x20AC;? because she and the boyfriend were not married. Consequently, as the trial started, she asked the judge to marry them.

After the ceremony, she was then granted the â&#x20AC;&#x153;marital privilege,â&#x20AC;? and the judge dismissed the charge for lack of evidence. (Russell has now been reassigned to less important cases.)

INVESTING IN THE STALK MARKET Justin Massler, 27, charged with criminal stalking of 28-year-old businesswomanheiress Ivanka Trump, was released on bail in New York City in April but explained to a New York Daily News reporter that he intended to alter his approach. Instead of imposing himself on Trump, he said he would â&#x20AC;&#x153;become like a big-time millionaire, real estate mogul, so that she's the one who contacts me.â&#x20AC;?

SHOOTS...

Schools' conventional â&#x20AC;&#x153;zero toleranceâ&#x20AC;? policies prohibiting guns or weapons on campus not only apply (as they have recently) to drawings of guns and to a 2-inch-long toy charm in the shape of a gun, but, at an Ionia, Michigan, school, to making the familiar, thumb-up hand representation of a gun, for which Mason Jammer, 6, was suspended in March.

PREEMPTIVE ATTACK Erlyndon Joseph Lo, 27 and a graduate of

Southern Methodist University law school, was arrested in April after threats against a Dallas women's clinic that performs abortions.

Police were tipped the day before when Lo appeared at the federal courthouse in Plano, Texas, and sought a formal judicial ruling that would protect him from harm, even if he were to use deadly force â&#x20AC;&#x153;to defend the innocent life of another human being.â&#x20AC;?

In April, outdoing the recent partisan spats in the U.S. Congress, several dozen members of the Ukrainian parliament squared off over a cooperation-with-Russia bill that eventually involved headlocks, punching, a smoke bomb, glue (in the voting machines) and cartons of eggs tossed at the speaker's platform. Russian president Dmitry Medvedev called it the chamber's â&#x20AC;&#x153;traditional elegance.â&#x20AC;?

GIVE HIM THE GAS CHAMBER Sweden's Metro newspaper reported in March that a 21-year-old inmate at Kirseberg prison in Malmo faces discipline for continuing his protests against jail conditions by aiming his flatulence directly at guards.

WHAT'S GOING ON IN WASHINGTON? Federal agents in April uncovered an elaborate bestiality ring (involving horses) in Washington state. Facility operator Douglas Spink is suspected of using the site to make pornographic videos, and a visitor from England was arrested as a suspected paying customer. This farm is near Bellingham, Washington, and the operation is completely separate from the 2005 raid on a similar facility near Enumclaw, Washington (about 110 miles away), in which one man died of a perforated colon following penetrative sex by a horse. The state had no specific antibestiality law in 2005, but one was enacted after the Enumclaw episode.

INCOMPETENT CRIMINALS (1) Clair Arthur Smith, 42, of Cape Coral, Florida, was charged with forgery in May after he allegedly tried to doctor the amount of a check he had received from Bank of America. Converting the $10 check to $100, or even $100,000, would seem plausible, but Smith tried to deposit the check into his account after he had marked it up to $269,951. (2) A 17-year-old was arrested in College Station, Texas, in January and charged with trying to pass a homemade $5 bill at a restaurant. Police said the bill's front and back had been computer-scanned and then pasted together but that the front of the bill was longer than the back. â&#x2013; To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/notw48

INJECTING CONTROVERSY

O

n a warm Thursday afternoon, some two dozen people sat on metal folding chairs inside the hollow-tiled walls of the Waikapu Community Center, while fluorescent lights hummed and six ceiling fans spun lazily.

Outside, a Field of Dreams-esque ball field awaited the arrival of after-school baseball practice, set to the panoramic backdrop of puffy clouds pillowing atop the green hills above Waikapu Valley.

Inside, County staff and citizens were assembled for the seventh monthly meeting of the Community Working Group on Wastewater Reuse, established after the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) conducted a hearing last August to hear testimony regarding West Maui injection wells. The group was ostensibly organized to incorporate community input about the Tavares administration’s stated goal of reusing 100 percent of treated wastewater, thereby eliminating the need to inject millions of gallons daily deep into the ground adjacent to coastal waters where the nitrogen-rich content has been linked to excessive algae blooms—and worse.

But some of the 21 volunteer members of the working group and members of the ad hoc DIRE Coalition (Don’t Inject, Redirect) believe that Tavares and County officials are not doing enough to achieve those goals. Claims of withheld information and obfuscation are clouding the waters and slowing down the process.

WORKING GROUP WOES

C

Unusally large algae blooms and increased reports of staph infections by surfers and paddlers have raised serious questions about the use of wastewater injection wells. But the County wants to build more WORDS BY ROB PARSONS ✚ PHOTOS BY MEGHAN DAILER

“The County is not in a favorable position with the EPA,” warns water quality expert Robin Knox. “The County and ratepayers and taxpayers now have a huge liability.”

10 May 20, 2010

ounty Department of Environmental Management Director Cheryl Okuma addressed the two-dozen attendees at the working group meeting in Waikapu.

She summarized an April 27 Planning Commission meeting, when the panel voted to “uphold the Planning Director’s decision” regarding permitting for two new injection wells to be constructed at Kahului. What she didn’t say is that the decision was the outcome of a contested case filed by the DIRE Coalition and Save Kahului Harbor (Surfrider Foundation was not granted standing), challenging the exemption to Special Management Area review provided by then-Director Jeff Hunt, who has since resigned his position.

Okuma went on to state that an EPA letter sent in February does not mean the County is in violation of its permits, but is about doing tracer and nitrogen reduction studies to determine whether the County is in compliance. Finally, she addressed claims in a leaflet from Save Kahului Harbor about an increasing incidence of staph infections among swimmers and paddlers. Okuma said she spoke with a University of Hawaii staff member who told her staph cannot survive in a seawater environment.

Maui Tomorrow Executive Director Irene Bowie, a member of both the County working group and the DIRE Coalition, expressed her frustration after the meeting. “Why bother with the working group if there’s no accurate information?” Bowie asked. “Back in December when we heard the ‘Wastewater 101’ presentation, we were told the eight wells in Kahului were all operational. They never told us they were pursuing an SMA

exemption to construct two more.”

“It is clearly new development in the SMA,” insisted Bowie. “It was so wrong for Jeff Hunt to give the exemption.”

Yet the Planning Commission, acting without a hearings officer for the contested case, voted 5-1 to uphold Director Hunt’s exemption, meaning the construction of two new wells will move forward unless the action is challenged in court. The County maintains the new wells are necessary to replace two wells that are clogged and not working properly, with some 4-5 million gallons being injected daily from the Kahului Wastewater Reclamation Facility.

In February, The Maui News reported a rift between the DIRE Coalition and the Wastewater Community Working Group.

Former EPA attorney Jeffrey Schwartz was among those calling for a complete re-use plan to be drafted by mid-September, in advance of the primary election. “They told us, ‘no’ to the subcommittees and ‘no’ to a plan,” said Schwartz. “So what we’re actually doing is only planning to plan, not coming up with a way to implement it.”

The hurry-up request brought a rejoinder from the Mayor’s spokesperson, Mahina Martin, who wrote, “It’s disappointing that DIRE will politicize an important community issue and put their own impatience ahead of everyone else who volunteered to serve on the working group.”

Schwartz further stated that the County has been negligent in providing alternative solutions to injection wells by now, and that 1,900 communities of varying sizes have been able to replace that method of wastewater disposal.

EPA SCRUTINY

A

t the Lahaina meeting last August, Mayor Charmaine Tavares asked that the EPA consider a five-year extension to existing permits on four injection wells at the Lahaina Wastewater Reclamation Facility rather than enforce more stringent conditions and requirements of new federal Class V permits for underground injection control.

Marine biologists and scientists reported studies indicating algae proliferation in the Kahekili Beach area, where seeps of injected wastewater percolate into the ocean.

Surfers and divers reported incidences of nasty staph infections including those diagnosed as MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus).

Meanwhile, the Mayor unveiled the idea of using the nutrient-rich wastewater as a resource and growing medium for algae in on-land holding tanks, to be harvested and processed into biofuel. “An algae energy project will move us closer to renewable energy sustainability, and at the same time reduce our need to place treated wastewater into injection wells,” said Tavares, as reported in The Lahaina News. Some, however, criticized her proposal as a pipe dream at best and a stalling tactic from EPA actions at worst.

“Biodiesel from algae is 10 years off,” wrote algae expert Robert Henrikson. “Let Exxon, BP and government consortiums invest $600 million in R&D to take the risks to commercialize this unproven technology.

Maui County should not be in this business taking these kind of risks with taxpayers’ money, just because algae biofuels have

received a lot of publicity and some biofuel company needs a project. Maui has a waste treatment problem to clean up, and algae can address the problem, but not as part of a algae-to-biodiesel venture, with all its separate and additional risks.”

In late January, the EPA sent a certified letter to Maui’s Department of Environmental Management ordering, “Sampling and reporting under Section 308 of the Clean Water Act for the County of Maui’s Lahaina Wastewater Reclamation Facility [LWRF].” It called for the County to submit by April 26, 2010, an effluent and coastal seep sampling and analysis plan, to be followed by a one-year sampling of the wastewater effluent. The EPA cited previous studies that linked nutrient inputs from the LWRF wells to effects in coastal waters.

“EPA is investigating the possible discharge of pollutants to the coastal waters of the Pacific Ocean along the Kaanapali Coast of Maui,” wrote the agency. “In 2007 and 2008, the University of Hawaii [study by Meghan Dailer, Robin Knox, et al.] and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted ambient tracer studies, which found substantial evidence that injected effluent from the LWRF is emerging from submarine springs into the coastal water around Kahekili Beach Park along the Kaanapali coastline. In order to assess the impact of the LWRF’s effluent on the coastal waters and determine compliance with the [Clean Water] Act, EPA is requiring the County to sample the injected effluent, sample the coastal seeps, conduct an

introduced tracer study, and submit reports on these activities and findings to EPA.” On March 15, Director Okuma responded to the certified letter, which she referred to as a “request,” despite EPA’s language: “The Environmental Protection Agency, Region 9 (EPA), hereby requires….” Okuma’s letter asked under what authority EPA was “requesting” off-site data collection, sought clarification on the nature of tests and timelines (though both are provided in the EPA letter) and raised the issue of County financial restraints.

“The County asks that the deadline for submitting a revised sampling plan be deferred pending resolution of the related issues,” Okuma wrote. At the Waikapu meeting she stated, “EPA will sit down at the table and discuss this with us.” Working group members did not press for details. “[The EPA letter] was an enforcement order, not a request,” insisted Robin Knox, a water quality scientist with 25 years of experience, including regulation and permit writing. She noted that EPA has already taken significant steps to address groundwater pollutants, including a mandate to retire large-capacity cesspools.

Knox, also a DIRE Coalition member, was present when EPA officials met with Mayor Tavares last December—a meeting also attended by Earthjustice attorney Paul Atchitoff. Knox recalled the EPA’s Region IX Water Division Director cutting short Tavares’s spiel on a 10-20 year plan for algae-to-biofuel production by interjecting, “Pardon me Mayor, you have one year” to provide an adequate

plan to comply with permit requirements.

“By fighting this, the County is wasting time and dollars that could be put to solving the problem,” said Knox. She noted that the EPA has taken special interest in Maui, and that she was part of a group that took representatives snorkeling to show them where treated wastewater from injection wells is bubbling up near the shores.

“In the 11 years between 1997 and 2008, it is estimated that 51 billion gallons were injected, much of it with inadequate disinfection.That equates to four million pounds of nitrogen over that time period,” Knox said.

Knox and others believe the wells should abide by the parameters of the Clean Water Act rather than the less restrictive Safe Drinking Water Act. She believes the data in studies she assisted with, as well as USGS reports, provide a rational nexus whereby a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit should be required.

Knox, who runs a water quality consulting business, also questioned Okuma’s assertion that staph bacteria cannot exist in a saline environment. “Maui has one of the greatest incidences of staph per 100,000 people,” she told the working group. The recycled freshwater dilutes the salinity and is more buoyant, which can bring pathogens to the surface where snorkelers, paddlers and surfers are, said Meghan Dailer, marine biologist and coresearcher with Knox.

The May issue of Environment Hawaii contains several articles on the Maui wastewater issues. A 1992 quote from the State Department of Health underscores the fact that this issue didn’t bubble up overnight. “If the algae problem is attributed to the operation of the injection wells, a critical issue will focus over the compliance requirements of the Clean Water Act,” reads the quote.

“The County is not in a favorable position with the EPA,” warned Knox. “The County and ratepayers and taxpayers now have a huge liability.”

MISPLACED FUNDING

A

t the working group meeting, Countyhired consultant Craig Lekven of Brown and Caldwell presented a comparative study of nationwide water-reuse programs, with examples from Tucson, Arizona, Westminister, Colorado, St. Petersberg and Altamonte Springs, Florida, Irvine, California, and a Cities and County alliance in Washington state. The study covered amount, type and driver for the water resuse, and funding sources.

Steve Parabicoli, County Water Recycling Program Coordinator, appeared unimpressed with the presentation. “Craig, we already did this study,” Parabicoli said after the 45-minute presentation. “We just need to do more of what we’re already doing.”

Yet momentum toward wastewater reuse and away from dependence upon disposal via wells is hampered by one primary factor: cost. New transmission lines to areas where the water may be used for irrigation and agricultural purposes could be costprohibitive. And in some cases, nearby agricultural landowners have not been willing to accept the idea of receiving the irrigation water, notably in Kahului. » Continued on page 13

Federal stimulus money could be used for such projects, as in the 1970s when funds were disbursed to help municipalities, including Maui, construct modernized wastewater treatment facilities. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not clear that the Tavares administration is shovel-ready with any plans. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kauai was ready with a plan and got federal stimulus money for their wastewater treatment that generated construction jobs and cleaned up the ocean,â&#x20AC;? wrote Karen Chun of the Kahului Harbor Coalition in a recent letter to The Maui News. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maui missed the boat because we werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ready with plans.â&#x20AC;?

Chun was referring to a related issue, wherein Maalaea condo owners worked with former Councilmember Michelle Anderson and U.S. Rep. Mazie Hirono to obtain a federal grant to phase out old cesspools and injection wells in that area, which has perhaps the most dramatic coral reef decline of anywhere on Maui over the past two decades.

Chun said the Department of Environmental Management is using another, â&#x20AC;&#x153;delaying tactic,â&#x20AC;? calling for a $180,000 water quality study by a questionable consultant, rather than implementing a plan to protect the ocean from underground pollutants.

Chun also believes it is possible that the Feds may not reimburse Maui County for the water quality analysis, because â&#x20AC;&#x153;the grant is for a plan and the County has hired out for a study.â&#x20AC;?

Though the County was apprised in late January by the EPA about the requirement for studies at the LWRF, no County budget request was submitted to conduct them.

Late last month, Councilmembers Wayne Nishiki, Sol Kahoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ohalahala and Joe Pontanilla expressed their displeasure over the omission, and inserted last-minute budget provisions to address the need for studies and EPA compliance.

Maui resident John Seebart has testified

at a number of hearings related to County injection wells. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think we have a right to a higher standard by the people we employ in County government. It may well be that with the magnitude of the problem, and the fact that this is a Mayoral election year, the appointment of the WWG was a panicked attempt to slide by and postpone this for another year, or longer, and the soldiers have their marching orders,â&#x20AC;? he wrote. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We may not have the money,â&#x20AC;? Seebart continued, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but the solutions are not rocket science. The County needs to act, or pay the consequences.â&#x20AC;?

Bowie concurred. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been stuck in a paradigm of what is best for Wastewater Division, which used to be a pipeline to the ocean,â&#x20AC;? Bowie said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really looking for a willingness to move forward, and do so swiftly, not just deny that problems exist.â&#x20AC;? â&#x2013;

WHAT IS AN INJECTION WELL?

HAPPY H285 DAILY 3-6PM

A

n injection well is a long, narrow pipe placed vertically in the ground. Partially treated wastewater is injected into the pipe. The wastewater is then absorbed into the soil and treatment is theoretically completed before it reaches a water source like the ocean.

There are 18 County-operated injection wells on Maui: eight in Kahului, four in Lahaina, three in Kihei and three on Molokai.

Depending on the season, about 80 percent of wastewater is currently processed through injection wells.

was sliced with a mandolin. The chipotle lime sauce is aioli-based and has a nice smoky tang; it goes really well with the sweet fries, too.

The Fat Daddy burger ($9) comes with onion rings, smoked bacon, cheddar and Fat Daddy BBQ Sauce. The onion rings are worth noting, tempura battered to perfection. The Fat Boy ($8) is a classic cheeseburger, while the Menehune ($4) is the junior option. They call them mini burgers, but my four-year-old couldn’t finish it even with a big appetite. The sweet fries—made with sweet potato—are a great twist on the traditional burger accoutrement.

Service is friendly and quick; you order at the window then wait on the deck overlooking South Kihei Road. We ate on the patio and did some people watching, but they will wrap it to go as well.

Though good luck eating one of these babies in your car. ■

Kihei Rd. 875-7777 Open daily for lunch and dinner Server Kayla Koplitz with a tray full of goodness. rowing up vegetarian with little access to beef, my mom used to tell me how hard it was for her to give up cheeseburgers. Since she had sacrificed this worldly delight she expected me to, so it wasn't until later—and with much guilt to overcome—that I embraced my own obsession with burgers. Since then, I've never looked back.

When I heard Toby Shadle of Fat Daddy’s BBQ had opened up a window-service burger place next to Starbucks at the Kukui Mall in Kihei, I waited for the next burger craving to come and headed south. I figured the beef has to be good; Toby knows how to do red meat. And sure enough, Fat Boy Burgers lives up to its name, serving 12 different cleverly named burgers plus a build-your-own option for the creative or picky.

Options on the burger change according to sauces and cheeses, and they have eight different sauces to choose from. I couldn’t resist the Californication ($9), burger heaven. The patty is hand-made and with roasted green chili, avocado, roasted when it showed up on my plate it was a garlic red onion and Monterey jack with work of art, the green chili glowing, the a chipotle lime sauce. I was instantly in avo plentiful, the red onion looking like it

I Hate the ‘80s... ...but I dug the hell out of Mulligans on the Blue’s Battle of the Bands

T

Sounds of Addiction on their way to a solid second place...

PHOTOS BY SEAN MICHAEL HOWER

he way I feel about the 80s is the same way some people feel about their parents: Yeah, they gave birth to me, but…really? While I’m busy texting and tweeting and surfing the Net on my cell phone, they’re flagging me down in their Dodge Caravan, pointing to their totally clutch IBM 5150. I’m online shopping for dresses, and they’re suggesting I wear some neon taffeta monstrosity with fishnet stockings and a denim jacket on my next date. They’re telling me that MTV used to play music videos, and I’m trying to tell them that it’s the premium source for cheesy reality TV and pregnant teens, and if I wanted to watch music videos, I’d go on YouTube. Sure, I love them, but I’d rather not be seen with them in public.

So, walking into Mulligans on the Blue in Wailea last week was like walking into a mental family reunion. Some people were cold lampin’ with their posse, others were sitting at a table just Pac-Manning the primo food and some other spanglers were ordering another Freddy at the bar. But everyone was listening to the bomdigity music. And, of course, the homefries were puttin’ on the ritz, from guys in itty-bitty running shorts to babes sporting some side-ponytail action.

Also, there were eleven bands/musicians battling for a chance at glory: Vibewell, Soul Package, Sebrina Barron, The Mobius Project, The Unintelligents, Sounds of Addiction, I-nology, Stephanie Lomeli, Minor Setback, Mary Jane Babashoff and Moth. In the preliminaries, there had been more than 30, so this was the cream of the crop. The bands really showcased the diversity of Maui’s music scene, going from roots to rock and reggae to soulful grrrl rock to slamdance and everything in between. Bands were judged heavily on

crowd participation, as well as songwriting, originality, performance and, of course, ‘80s attire, in keeping with the evening’s theme.

Not only were these bands battling for glory, but also the chance to have their music careers jump-started with a threesong EP recorded by We Are More Studios, CD cover designed by Scott Johnson of Dogtowne Design, photo shoot with Justine

It wasn’t long until Sharpiescrawled autographs ran off the fans’ chests like eyeliner and the walls perspired.

Orr Photography and a chance to open for The Throwdowns on their Kona Brewing Company/Surfrider Foundation Tour on June 12. Judges included musicians Erin Smith and Vince Esquire, as well as MauiTime’s own power couple, Jen and Tommy Russo.

By the end of the night (when people had to be sedated and were already dancing with themselves—lucky no one fought the

law) there were only five bands still in the running. Sounds of Addiction, with their easy-going roots vibe; Sebrina Barron and her soulful, cat-stretching-in-the-sunshine vocals; Moth, wielding their mighty axes for a metal meltdown; The Mobius Project, vocalist screeching like Karen O and drummer ready to break stuff; and Minor Setback, trying to prove they can change Maui’s music scene in a major way.

Moth ultimately came out on top, with Sounds of Addiction in second place, but the real winners here were the fans.

Each band had its share of loyal followers who hula-hooped, moshed, chanted and sign-waved their hearts out. It wasn’t long until Sharpie-scrawled autographs ran off the fans’ chests like eyeliner and the walls perspired. While seated next to some Addiction addicts, I overheard them saying, “Man—we practiced that chant in the car! We were yelling 'Addiction!' at Sports Authority!”

While big hair and bright clothes are definitely not my thing, good music, pumped-up crowds and inspiring musicians definitely are. On this night, Mulligans was filled with one part '80s freak, one part killer music and all parts awesome. 'Til the next battle, later days and better lays. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/a.e48

Royal Insult The story of Hawaii’s patriot princess gets chewed up and spit out by Hollywood “

Y

ou looked visibly stressed, not halfway through it,” says my movie-going accomplice (modestly anonymous, I’ll call him “Mr. M”). Hearing this, my shoulders slump further. I’d exhausted myself for most of the movie, trying to mask my discomfort. Apparently it didn’t work.

I’d gone from desperately wanting (hoping, praying) to enjoy myself to stifling my scoffs so as not to be the asshole in the theater. Post show, my peanut gallery politeness didn’t last to the exit. All the way to the parking lot, my gasped complaints fell uninterrupted on Mr. M’s patient, insightful ears.

Princess Ka'iulani has many fatal flaws.

But the biggest disservice it does is sidelining the monarch’s role in Hawaii’s overthrow for a soulless smooch fest— relegating our most enigmatic royal to a too-proud priss who engages in nothing but 130 minutes of B-roll barf.

For all the story’s potential and my enthusiastic interest, I left the theater trying to calculate how much time the film wasted on bizarre beach romps; I could have driven to Kula in the collective minutes. Otherwise, time is spent watching a confusingly represented Ka'iulani (Q’orianka Kilcher) sulk with her bag of shells or suck face with that ugly, do-nothing Brit, Clive Davies (Shaun Evans). It is not the story of the tragic heroine I came to see. But at least I know the truth. For many outside our islands, this will be a first impression of Hawaiian history. And that's the real tragedy.

This is the kind of crap you'll soon find buried in a $5 DVD bin at a Walmart in the Midwest, forever warping unsuspecting minds. “based on a true story,” should be prefaced with “loosely.” Ka'iulani’s famed lament, “I must have been born under an unlucky star,” (absent from the film) seems a curse that's betrayed her even in cinema a century later.

When its early release dawned late last year, the movie’s original title, Barbarian Princess, stirred up controversy. It meant to play off of political cartoons and headlines of the day pitted against the princess— the result of shoddy journalism that spread from San Francisco to New York, stoked by the smear campaigning of late-

familiar, iconic voice was a rare bright spot).

Though it can sometimes be written off to the filmmakers trying to sex up the story, the casting befuddles—often. Easiest to jab is Evans as Clive the love interest. This should be a story about love of country; instead it's about love of a boy. And, might I say, not a very attractive one at that.

“I know it's a tall order for the English,” jokes Mr. M, of Evans being the cutest they could cast. He gets a grin out of me. My only other smile came during the film’s lone clever moment, a short scene depicting annexation ceremonies. The royal band is

That, to me, is more painful than the movie, as each review’s synopsis proves the damage Princess Ka’iulani has done both to the Princess's legacy and an increased understanding of Hawaiian culture.

“For the uninitiated, they've confused things all the more,” says Mr. M succinctly.

Scarier still, this is the kind of crap you'll soon find buried in a $5 DVD bin at a Walmart in the Midwest, forever warping unsuspecting minds.

Where Forby failed to tell the truth, he also failed to uphold the legend. There’s enough myth to Ka'iulani to add a little cinematic flair. Hello? What about the lone horseback ride through a Big Island storm, the one that caused her lethal cold?

Or wailing pet peacocks, precisely at the moment of her death, so insatiable they were ordered shot? Instead, the film makes it seem like she takes a suicide walk into the ocean.

(She might not have, but I sure felt like it.)

Hawaiian mythology is drenched in the

F

or all the dough it has reaped while homogenizing our culture, Hollywood has yet to give na kanaka anything we can be proud of. So I should know better than to get my hopes up. But when it’s a biopic about such a widely loved and historically significant ali'i as Ka'iulani, I can't help but dream of, at least, a little redcarpet worthy cinematography. Pocahontas in The New World—Kilcher’s last princess portrayal (alongside Colin Farrell as John Smith)—got at least that, with direction

by The Thin Red Line's Terrence Malick.

But with first-time writer/director Marc Forby at the helm of Princess Ka'iulani, the legacy of Hawaii’s last princess—and the overthrow at large—is not afforded even the glitz of a big-budget production.

Shortcomings boil down to a lid-heavy pace, while Ka'iulani’s real story and the rapid-fire timeline of Hawaii’s overthrow should be the stuff of silver-screen gold.

Handed a history unknown to most of the world and one that inherently lends itself to hair-trigger drama, Forby finds a way to muck it all up—with poor filmmaking, yes, but worse still with inaccurate, unnecessary historical revisionism. In this case especially,

Oh next ethnic princess role, where art thou?

19th century Annexationists.

The din of opposition resulted in a name change, but I for one liked the provocative title. The relevance, of course, being the fact that real-life Ka'iulani’s poise instantly charmed the apologetic press upon her landing on U.S. soil, as she steeled herself to make impassioned petition of President Grover Cleveland for the sustained sovereignty of Hawaii.

Instead, the film gives us a single, paraphrased speech, from an Oriental Trading Co. soundstage, set to laughable sound bites of jeering journos who come around quickly thanks to Michael W. Perry of nowpau Hawaiian Moving Co. fame (hearing his

made to play “The Star Spangled Banner,” and their sloppy rendition gets a cocked brow from Barry Pepper (Saving Private Ryan, The Green Mile) as bad-guy Lorrin A. Thurston.

The film’s other big name is Will Patton as Sanford B. Dole. But Patton’s portrayal— script first to blame—softens Dole and makes him into a sympathizer to the Hawaiian monarchy, when Liliuokalani’s own memoirs staunchly state otherwise.

I

waited to finish writing my own review before reading others. I’m glad I did. Once again, from coast to coast, the journalistic opinion of Ka’iulani is a harsh one—only this time it’s justified.

mist of things eerie and supernatural. As Hollywood has so well shown, when you’re trying to make money off a locale's sunny ideal, that kind of thing is unfashionable.

So for the better part of a century we've allowed the intrigue of our proud, strange tales to become dehydrated with grass skirts and plastic tikis. Now comes the final insult: Princess Ka'iulani—our patriot princess, the woman who Robert Louis Stevenson dubbed the “Island Rose”—is withered to nothing more than the pale impression of a pressed flower. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/film48B

Too ‘Wright’ Formulaic rom com doesn’t do its charming star justice Just Wright

★★★★★

Rated PG/111 min.

The moment two people destined to fall in love first see each other is referred to by screenwriters as The Meet Cute and it gets steadily more ridiculous every year.

Gone is the simple bumping into her at the bookstore or simultaneously grabbing the same item at the supermarket. In recent

18 May 20, 2010

years, we had Matthew McConaughey saving Jennifer Lopez from a runaway dumpster in The Wedding Planner and Hugh Grant falling in love with Drew Barrymore after she waters his plants in Music & Lyrics. Then there’s the awkwardly titled Just Wright, where a physical therapist (Queen Latifah) meets the object of her affection at a gas station: he’s an NBA star (played by rapper Common) who doesn’t know how to pump gas in his new car and, wouldn’t you know, his biggest fan is at the

next pump to show him how its done. Right then and there, their eyes meet, a date is set and I sat there wondering if this has ever happened to someone at the Pukalani Shell Station…or anywhere else in the world.

After that, Common injures himself on the court and needs Latifah’s rehabilitation expertise to help him get his game back, both on the court, and in his heart. Ugh. It starts off corny and predictable, becomes an appealing date movie, then goes right back to being corny and predictable. This is the kind of movie where there’s a montage showing Latifah happily rolling around in bed and making googly faces at the camera.

There’s also a scene where she gives her man a pep talk during an especially tense game and, shockingly, he ends up playing better than he has all season.

I’ve been a Queen Latifah fan most of my life: I still have some of her rap albums on cassette and thought she showed promise as an actress from the start, even when the material didn't match her talent. Yet she's at her best in risky character roles, like her

work in Set It Off and Chicago, rather than cheesy star vehicles. Her performance isn’t bad but she can be an overly self-aware actress; like Barbara Streisand, her diva persona sometimes stifles the character.

Common’s inexperience as an actor is obvious but he has a laid-back charm that works well for the role and the film’s mid-section—where he hires Latifah to treat his injury and sweeps her off her feet—is strong because the two make such a likable screen couple. Their courtship is sweet and pleasant but devoid of passion, which can be partly blamed by the movie’s tame PG rating.

Unfortunately, just when Common, Latifah and the movie were about to win me over, it snapped out of its spell and reverted to Romantic Comedy Cliches 101. Formulas become formulas for a reason—because they work—but how many Meet Cutes can you stomach before things get ugly? ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/film48

Friday (May 21), 6-8:30pm at Maui Culinary Academy, Kahului, $45-$60

Friday (May 21) at Stella Blues, Kihei; Saturday (May 22) at Charleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, Paia

Most of us donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have sufficient funds to hop on a plane to Italy tomorrow to spend a monthsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; worth of sunny days taking leisurely strolls through blooming fields of grapes, and evenings at twilit dinners followed by long nights of exquisite wine, food and music. Sigh. But that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean you should pick up the same $7 bottle of Australian red at Walmart every afternoon; life is all about variety, vivacity and change.

Enter the Zinfandel Grand Tasting and Cook-Off, sponsored by Zinfandel Advocates and Producers (ZAP), which will feature beautiful wines from Alexander Valley, Barefoot Cellars, Dogwood Cellars, Hunt Cellars, Leonhardt Vineyards, Mauritson Family and more. The Maui Culinary Academy will complement the array of vino with delicious, creative dishes presented by ten culinary students. Try the foie gras and duck meatballs, phyllo-wrapped herb goat cheese, sous vide pork tenderloin, or, if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had enough adventuring for one day, hit up the tried and true kalua pork with poi mochi. Lending to the feeling of luxury and good company, top winemakers will be mingling with the crowd. It may not be Italy, but still... Zinfandel.org, 530-274-4900 [Sierra Brown]

Micah Nelsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s problem is that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s into everything. And so is the band heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s part of with Logan Metz, Lincoln Mendell, Gerry Hirschfeld, Devin McCartey and Chris Bullard: The ReďŹ&#x201A;ectacles.

I asked him to â&#x20AC;&#x153;defineâ&#x20AC;? the bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s style and received a list of bands he thinks theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re kinda-sorta like: everything from The Beatles to Of Montreal to some guy at a show in Northridgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opinion: â&#x20AC;&#x153;If John Fogerty ate a bunch of acid.â&#x20AC;?

His favorite song to play? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impossible. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like if I was a father of 10,000 children and you were asking me to choose between them..Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sorry, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if I could ever answer that.â&#x20AC;? This crazily-prolific, all-over-the-place, pyschedelic folkrolk band comes across as polished, alive and like they could provide the soundtrack to the best cross-country road trip of your life. This weekend, The Reflectacles are back from Cali, visiting Micahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s childhood home, and are making the rounds at a couple of good spots. On Friday, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll join Folk Uke at Stella Blues; on Saturday theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be at Charleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s with special guests, for a $20 cover charge. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So come and take a ride with me, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll show you places far and wideâ&#x20AC;Śâ&#x20AC;?

I feel lucky to be surrounded by so many gorgeous people and places on Maui, and think we should have fun with our clothes and styles in a way that continues to beautify the scenery. Wings Hawaii, founded by three UH grads, is a local clothing company that designs duds for the young women of Maui who spend their mornings, afternoons and nights adventuring the island bedecked in colorful tanks, shorts and Maui-style shell jewelry. Now, the leading ladies of Wings are throwing a party and fashion show. The stage will be fun and spectacular, featuring Surreal Stilt Dancers, Magic by Max Vega, belly dancers and an arial performance by Natasia. Star Anise will cater the event and host complementary temporary tattoo and henna booths. The fashion show will roll to the sounds of Paula Fuga and Mike Love. The collection is entirely hand-sewn, using cotton-bamboo blended fabric. Wings also will display their jewelry designs and debut their new bikini line, Honi Honi. After the show, stick around for music by Mishka.

While you’re enjoying the show, you’ll also get those fuzzy-good feelings knowing that a portion of your ticket price and of store sales goes to the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women Campaign. Wingshawaii.com [SB]

This weekend, the MACC will be swarming with young dancers, nervous and giddy about the three performances of the Spring Extravaganza. On Saturday, an energetic troop will perform the annual Jazz, Tap, and Hip Hop Revue.

Sunday, the ballerinas will take their turn in a unique piece titled Sir Dancealot. One young man spends the production simultaneously courting the lead ballerinas of five seperate ballets: Le Corsaire, Giselle, Firebird, Butterfly Lovers and Tarzan. Eventually the ladies catch on to his tricks, and slap him around a bit (just with less unattractive yelling and more graceful leaping and deep plies than you would see from an average woman in that situation). Later on Sunday, at 7:30pm, Moves takes the stage.

This presentation is a collection of original choreography, so rest assured, it will surprise and enchant. Whatever day or style you fancy, it should be a lovely weekend that is the product of months of hard work, so come enjoy and support MAPA students. [SB]

Horoscopes

sign.language.astrology@gmail.com GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) Since any decision you make is bound to make someone unhappy, you’re in a bind. You have a couple options. If you care more about the happiness of some people than the others, then you can just decide in their favor. Or you can go the route of simply opting for the greatest good—that is, the choice that results in the greatest number of happy people (or perhaps the fewest unhappy people). Whichever route you go, I strongly urge against simply making yourself happy, and also to resist bending to the squeakiest wheel.

Neither of those situations will work out well for you. Can you trust me on this, or must you learn that lesson the hard way?

Quizunderstood answers Answers from page 8

AGE LANGU

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) If you’re going to engage in any kind of debate, make sure you have your facts straight before you open your mouth. To do otherwise is not only disrespectful to everyone else in the dialogue, it’ll make you look foolish. You don’t want to lose credibility and clout before you’ve even made your point. So do your homework and show up to the situation prepared and knowledgeable. Improvising here will look like, and obviously be, you talking out of your ass. If you care about the outcome of this discussion, show up with relevant information. And if you don’t care that much, why participate at all?

1. Paul Jameson, Richard Denning 2. B. 3. Bobby “The Brain” Heenan 4. “I’m So High” by Grind Mode, both songs released in 2008

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) You’re on the prowl again. You know what (or who) you want—it’s how to get it that’s in question. A Leo’s typical method involves lying in wait and pouncing on your prey when it gets close enough to nab without much effort. However, there are other “hunting” methods that might serve you better this week. Actively and relentlessly pursuing what you want certainly goes against the lazier side of your nature—but it’s still likely to work. However, if you insist on staying patiently hidden in the tall grass, at least send out some of your pride-mates to flush some potential “prey” in your direction.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) Put your money where your mouth is. Strong rhetoric is fine, but unless you’re willing to actually back it up with something down here on Earth, it’s ultimately just empty words—and will be taken about that seriously. Real action—even something as simple as shelling out some dough—is where meaning lies this week. Put concrete deeds behind your convictions and their force will surely be felt. If you just can’t be bothered, spare us all the time and energy, and don’t express them at all. In other words don’t just talk the talk—walk the walk or keep your mouth shut.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) You’ve finally made up your mind. You’ve talked about, debated, and agonized over this decision for ages.

There’s nothing anyone else could add at this point that you haven’t heard or thought of already. Shut them down. Give yourself some quiet space to sit with your decision and verify that it’s the right one.

Sometimes you don’t realize what you really want until you commit (at least mentally) to a path. The truly “right’ decision may not yet be perfectly clear—what’s obvious, though, is that you’ll arrive at it if—and only if—you’re given (or take) the space and chance to do so.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) How far are you really willing to go? That’s something you should decide right now, before you’ve entered the situation at all. Walking into an auction or a casino without a limit in mind could land you in serious trouble. Know the lines you don’t want to cross before you get to within a mile of them. The alternative is an unpleasant surprise, and being forced to make a snap decision that could have important and perhaps even terrible consequences— something that wouldn’t happened if you’d just thought ahead with a couple “what if” or “just in case” scenarios.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) What would you do if you looked out your window and saw a trio of unicorns grazing? Would you immediately call the press, snap photos of them and get famous? Would you shoo them quickly into the woods and hiding before anyone noticed them? Would you try to trap or kill them? How you respond to something precious coming into your life will do much to determine how at least the next few years go for you. Will you try to catch and keep it for yourself, allow it to be as free and powerful as when you first glimpsed it, or simply use it to your own advancement and advantage? What does that decision say about who you’ve become? Are you okay with that?

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) Sometimes your choices are mostly taken away from you. That is, you always have options, but it’s extremely obvious right now what you should do at every juncture, whether you like it or not. In these situations, you must wisely and gracefully realize how foolish it would be to buck the tide, and simply roll with what’s happening, until it makes sense to swim against the current again. Of course, you’ll eventually have to resume the hard work of forging your own path (if you want to get to where you’re headed, anyway), but it’s actually quite liberating to just let go and relax into the flow for a while—try to enjoy it.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) One of the things I love about my Aquarian friends is that even when we lose touch for a while, we can pick up right where we left off when next we meet, without a lot of awkwardness or even much in the way of playing catch-up. You have an amazing ability, even in the face of incredible change and a dynamic and evolving way of doing things, to maintain a certain core that is consistent and comforting. This is what people will gravitate towards, this week, and in general—not whatever’s most shiny and new about you.

In other words, you needn’t put on a show; just be yourself.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) Patience, my friend, patience. These things go in cycles. What you’re contemplating doing right now is like buying something when it’s at its most expensive, even though you know full well that the price will drop a bit further down the line. Why? Because you’re impatient, and like most other humans, you crave instant gratification. Resist that urge! It’s the kind of thing that’s most likely to bite you in the ass right now. Distract yourself with other compelling opportunities and bide your time. When the right moment to act has truly come, you’ll know.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) If you disagree with how something’s being done, and you possibly have the power to do so—please get off your ass and do it yourself. Criticizing someone else from the sidelines has its place, but generally right now everything that matters to you is within your personal power to improve or fix. So instead of telling others to do as you say, simply do it how you want it done. That will go over much better than barking orders and offering unsolicited critiques of a job someone else has taken it upon themselves to do.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) You can sometimes be like a sphinx—distant, inscrutable, and unknowable. Those who ask questions trying to guess your inner state are often given convoluted riddles that are impossible to untangle and correctly interpret. I understand that you have a high degree of emotional independence, and don’t really need much from other people to make yourself happy, but perhaps you can look at it this way: sometimes, showing a bit of vulnerability is an act of generosity. Letting someone be there for you can be a kindness, even if you don’t technically need that. Keep that in mind this week, and if you see a chance to do something so thoughtful, please take it.
