POLITICAL DIAGNOSIS TO HOSPITAL WOES Good article by Susan Halas on the hospital (“Maui Memorial Hospital Faces Public/Private Partnership Or Bust,” Jan. 29, 2015). But she missed an important part of the puzzle. Politics in the state are one party in nature–Democrat. The Democratic Party is controlled by the unions. These Government employee unions in effect hire their own bosses. The elected officials do what they are told to do by the unions. This includes passing laws that benefit the unions to the detriment of taxpayers. All economic transactions to be successful have to have two parties negotiating for their own best interest. No one is representing the taxpayer or the consumer of medical services in this transaction. Maui is not the only place in the country with this problem . The Detroit and Flint areas in Michigan where Susan says she is from are rotten with the same sort of one party political corruption. Sometimes you have to look into things you do not want to see in order to solve a problem.
MORE THOUGHTS ON WAILUKU PARKING I read with interest your January 8, 2015 article regarding the possibility
of parking meters in Wailuku (“Rise Of The Parking Machines”). I would like to know if the county planners have considered that since most of the weekday parking is taken by state and county workers, wouldn’t it be nice if the state and county provided parking for their employees? I realize there isn’t much vacant land in downtown Wailuku, but perhaps the state and county could buy vacant parcels nearby and provide shuttle service for their employees, or better yet build sidewalks between the parking lots and the government buildings so the workers could walk to their offices and get a little exercise engineered into their workdays. Another solution to the parking shortage might be to have better bus service to downtown Wailuku, especially at commute times. The county government is planning on adding offices to downtown, thereby adding to the strain on available parking. The county needs to be more creative about solving the parking shortage. Wailuku town needs more sidewalks to encourage walking, bus routes and schedules that conform to demand and government agencies should provide parking for their employees. Yes, parking meters will generate revenue in the postTaguma age, but they won’t alleviate the parking shortage. -Timex Yamasaki, via snail mail

Will the Legislature dance this year?
NEW BILLS! GET YOUR RED HOT NEW BILLS!
• SB 868: RELATING TO LIQUOR COMMISSIONS. Also known as the “dancing bill,” this piece of legislation would finally codify some kind of definition of dancing, so all the county’s over-worked Department of Liquor Control (LC) enforcement officers can have an easier time deciding who’s dancing and who’s not during their nightclub and bar inspections. Because as things stand now, there’s nothing in the rules or statutes to define dancing, though that hasn’t stopped LC inspectors from busting establishments for allowing “illegal” dancing. Don’t hold out much hope, though: this bill has been around before, and went nowhere. Introduced by 14 senators, including Maui’s own J. Kalani English and Gil Keith-Agaran. • SB 715/HB 623: RELATING TO RENEWABLE STANDARDS. According to the Blue Planet Foundation, which sent out a news release on Feb. 2 about them, these bills require that 100 percent–yes, all–of the state’s electricity comes from renewable resources by the year 2040. “Hawaii’s legislature has long declared it ‘critical’ to reduce the state’s fossil fuel dependence, eliminate our vulnerability to the price volatility of imported fuels, and
to review and discuss Hawaii’s forfeiture laws and make recommendations to improve these laws.”
• SB 690: RELATING TO FORFEITURE. Ahh, asset forfeiture, that long-loved but utterly unjust “tool” of law enforcement. In theory, it’s when government seizes someone’s property, usually in regards to some sort of criminal investigation. But in practice, it’s usually a civil rights disaster. “Every year, federal and state law enforcement agents seize millions of dollars from civilians during traffic stops, simply by asserting that they believe the money is connected to some illegal activity and without ever pursuing criminal charges,” states the American Civil Liberties Union website. “Under federal law and the laws of most states, they are entitled to keep most (and sometimes all) of the
In case you missed it, a federal judge has again smacked the County of Maui with Clean Water Act violations. Once again, it’s at the old Lahaina Wastewater Reclamation Facility. Turns out injected treated sewage into the ground there is illegal. As we’ve known for a couple years now, the waste has a way of finding its way into the ocean, where it damages the near-shore reefs. Back in May 2014, federal Judge Susan Oki Mollway slapped the county over two of the four injection wells. In late January, she hit it over the other two wells. “This environmental disaster has been going on for over 30 years,” said David Henkin of Earthjustice (which repre-
• SB 903: RELATING TO EMPLOYEE LEAVE. This one seems simple enough: It “Requires government employers to provide employees paid leave to attend parent-teacher, parent-caregiver, or early intervention services conferences,” according to the bill summary. It also “Adds early intervention services conferences to the list of conferences for which government employees shall be eligible to receive paid leave to attend.” Cool, huh? Except that local activist Shay Chan Hodges, who writes a lot about working families, told U.S. Labor Secretary Tom Perez during a Jan. 22 Google Hangout on working families this is the third time that the supposedly “progressive” Hawaii Legislature has considered paid leave. • SB 1025: RELATING TO MANDATORY SICK LEAVE. This is another of those bills you probably thought Hawaii would have passed a long time ago, but didn’t. According to the bill text, it “Requires employers to provide a minimum amount of paid sick leave to employees to care for them-

The Hawaii state Legislature is back into session, and for the next few months, will be working furiously to pass (or kill) all sorts of new bills, a few of which may actually make life better for us. A comprehensive look at all this proposed legislation is out of the question, but I was able to discover a few new (and old) bills of note. Oh, and if some of these seem silly, or cover a matter you thought was decided a century ago, it’s just because law-making–especially when dealing with a part-time Legislature that’s long been dominated by a single political party–is somewhat imperfect. Enjoy!

sented a coalition of groups in court) in a Jan. 26 news release. “This latest decision is a wake up call for the County to stop using the ocean as a sewer and finally fix this problem. The County can and should reuse the millions of gallons of wastewater from the Lahaina facility to meet the needs of golf courses, resorts, and other developments, not dump them onto fragile reefs.” County of Maui spokesman Rod Antone said in the Jan. 27 Maui News that it’s “too early” to talk about fines, though they’re going to have to at some point soon. As the Earthjustice news release pointed out, “Maximum penalties in this case already exceed $100 million, and the meter is ticking at a rate of over $100,000 per day.” The court will impose penalties this August. ■ anthony@mauitime.com + @apignataro

SUMMIT FOUNDATION GIVES MONK SEAL STATUE TO COLLEGE A new sculpture depicting a playful mother monk seal and her cub has been gifted to UH Maui College. The sculpture, named Kulapa Kai (to frolic in the ocean), is part of a gift from Jim and Mary Hirshfield’s Summit Foundation, which seeks to leave artistic legacies in the form of sculptures, notably of animals that live in a particular region. “Ever since we honeymooned here 47 years ago, Maui has held a special place in our hearts,” said Jim Hirshfield. “We are pleased to be able to return some of the joy we have received by supporting the college and through it the broader Maui community with this gift.”
Toothy issue
Kulapa Kai was carved from a solid block of New Zealand marble by local artists Bruce Turnbull and Kim Mosley. The sculpture took nearly one year to complete, with the majority of the carving done at Turnbull’s Kahakuloa studio. “As a stone carver, I see shapes, expressions, movement, and intrinsic life in the veins of a jagged rock,” said Mosley. “Chiseling and sanding this New Zealand marble brought vitality into a dormant stone–revealing the playful essence of a monk seal and it’s pup. I’m grateful to have been part of this transformation.” The new art installation is set on a small, grassy knoll between the campus’ Kalama and Noi‘i buildings–providing a contemplative spot for faculty, students, and visitors. The piece was lifted by crane and placed on campus last August. Students at the college participated in sanding and finishing demonstrations, and learned how to grind, polish, and chisel the stone with power and hand tools for the statue’s finishing touches. “We sincerely appreciate this beautiful addition to our campus,” said Chancellor Lui K. Hokoana. “I’ve already heard from faculty and students about how much they
enjoy the new piece, and it was a wonderful opportunity for our art students to get some hands-on learning as well.” “I love walking around the piece and taking it in from every vantage point,” said UHMC art faculty member Jennifer Owen. “It was a fellow art teacher, Mike Takemoto, who pointed out that from one of the nearby sidewalks, the sculpture looks entirely abstract, while from the other walkways the forms of the monk seals are revealed.” The sculpture will be officially blessed on Jan. 29 at 4:30pm. The public is welcome to attend. “The world needs more beauty,” Turnbull said about the new installation. “I only hope I can enrich the lives I touch through the beauty I create”. The Summit Foundation first approached the University of Hawaii Maui College in May of 2013 about the possibility of a sculpture gift at the Kahului campus. In addition to Kulapa Kai, the Foundation has commissioned two sculptures in Washington State. ■ editor@mauitime.com For more news articles, visit: mauitime.com/news

The MEDB is setting up two avenues for participation. You can bring together 12-15 people at a company or organization for a session that will be run by a MEDB representative. Alternately, interested participants can sign up for a small group session that MEDB has organized. “This opportunity for public conversation is critical as it can have an impact on the future of our island,” said Skog. “By joining in this conversation, participants will be helping to bring the public’s voice to the table in front of decision makers and community stakeholders as actions are determined to create a ‘green’ energy future for Maui.” The results of these MPowerMaui conversations will be presented at the “Maui Energy Conference” which will be held on March 25 and 26. Those interested in participating can sign up by calling 808-875-2336.

MEDB is seeking community input on Maui’s energy future as part of project called “MPowerMaui: An Energy Conversation.” MEDB is asking the public to volunteer their time and share their priorities and values about energy today and in the future on Maui. Interested parties will participate in small group sessions which will be held throughout the month of February. Activities during the 90-minute sessions will enable participants to learn more about energy, to think about their own actions related to energy, to prioritize issues, to consider what actions they would or would not support, and to develop messages for decision makers.

The Project Theater Board at Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, Massachusetts, decided in January to cancel its upcoming annual presentation of the feminist classic “Vagina Monologues.” The all-women’s college recently declared it would admit males who lived and “identified” as female (regardless of genitalia), and the basis for cancellation of the Vagina Monologues was that the unmodifiable script is not “inclusive” of those females–that it covers only experiences of females who actually have vaginas.
WRONGFUL NON-ARREST? Kathi Fedden filed a $30 million wrongful death lawsuit in December against Suffolk County, New York, police after her 29-yearold son, driving drunk in 2013, fatally crashed into an office. She reasons that her son’s death is the fault of the police officer who stopped him earlier that evening and who must have noticed he was already drunk but did not arrest him. The officer, who knew the son as the owner of a popular-with-police local delicatessen, merely gave the son a lift home, but the son later drove off in his mother’s car, in which he had the fatal crash.
NO GOOD DEED GOES UNPUNISHED A generous resident (name withheld by KDKA-TV) of South Oakland, Pennsylvania, in seasonal spirit the week before Christmas, invited a pregnant, homeless woman she had met at a Rite Aid store home with her for a hot shower, a change of clothes and a warm bed for the night. The resident was forced to call police, though, when she went to check up on her guest and discovered her engaging in sexual activity with the resident’s pit bull. The guest, enraged at being caught, vandalized the home before officers arrived to arrest her.
THE NEW NORMAL The website/smartphone app Airbnb, launched in 2008, connects travelers seeking lodging with individuals offering private facilities at certain prices. About a year ago, entrepreneur Travis Laurendine launched a similar smartphone app, “Airpnp,” to connect people walking around select cities and needing access to a toilet, listing residents who make their utilities available, with description and price. Laurendine told the New York Post in January that New York City is a promising market (though his two best cities are New Orleans and Antwerp, Belgium). The prices vary from free to $20, and the facilities range from a sweet-smelling room stocked with reading material to a barely maintained toilet (with no lavatory), but, said one supplier, sometimes people “really need to go, and this will have to do.”
GOVERNMENT IN ACTION Kentucky, one of America’s financially worse-off states, annually spends $2 million
of taxpayer money on salaries and expenses for 41 “jailers” who have no jails to manage. Research by the Kentucky Center for Investigative Reporting in January noted that Kentucky’s constitution requires “elected” jailers, notwithstanding that 41 counties have shut down their jails and house detainees elsewhere via contracts with sheriffs. (Though the jailers may be called upon to transport prisoners from time to time, the 41 counties are mostly small ones with few detainees.) Several jailers have full-time “side” jobs, and one jail-less jailer employs five deputies while another has 11 part-timers.
BUREAUCRATIC TRIUMPH A.K. Verma was an “assistant executive engineer” working for India’s central public works department in 1990 with 10 years on the job when he went on leave–and had still not returned by the end of 2014, when the government finally fired him. He had submitted numerous requests for extensions during the ensuing 24 years, but all were denied, though no agency or court managed to force him back to work. India’s bureaucracy is generally acknowledged to be among the most dysfunctional in Asia.
ALL IN A NAME The Tampa Bay Times (formerly St. Petersburg Times), reeling financially as many newspapers are, pledged several properties it owns (including its downtown headquarters) to borrow $30 million last year from a distressed-property lender and now announces an intention to pay back that loan by selling the properties. As reported by the local St. Petersblog website, the sore-thumb loan was almost exactly the amount the Times paid in 2002 for “naming rights” to the Tampa concertand-hockey venue, the Ice Palace (which became the St. Petersburg Times Forum and is now Amalie Arena). Thus, St. Petersblog wrote, “do the math,” concluding that the Tampa Bay Times was pressured to sell its own headquarters building in order to pay for the 12-year privilege of being able to name someone else’s building.
LEAST COMPETENT CRIMINALS Shane Lindsey, 32, allegedly robbed the Citizens Bank in New Kensington, Pennsylvania, on Jan. 14 and ran off down the street, but was arrested about 15 minutes later a few blocks away, having stopped off at Eazer’s Restaurant and Deli to order chicken and biscuits. And Jeffrey Wood, 19, was arrested in the act of robbing a 7-Eleven in Northeast Washington, D.C., on Jan. 10–because two plainclothes detectives were in the store at the time (though the police badge of one was hanging from a chain around her neck). As soon as the man announced, “This is a stickup,” the detective drew her gun and yelled, “Stop playing. I got 17” (meaning a gun with 17 bullets).■

IT'S SUNSET FOR THE ARMY
IN HAWAII BUT FEW BESIDES MAUI
REP. KANIELA ING ARE HAPPY TO SEE THEM GO BY ANTHONY PIGNATARO

T
he U.S. military and Hawaii have a long and complex history. The 1893 overthrow of the Hawaiian kingdom happened in part because U.S. Marines came ashore to assist the white coup leaders. Hawaii eventually became a U.S. territory during the Spanish-American War because of Pearl Harbor’s value to the U.S. Navy as a coaling station. At the same time, huge numbers of Hawaii-born men and women have served in all branches of the U.S. military–probably the most famous being Daniel Inouye, who as a U.S. Army lieutenant won the Medal of Honor in Italy during World War II and eventually became a powerful U.S. Senator. Maui’s U.S. Congressional representative, Democrat Tulsi Gabbard, is herself a member of the Hawaii National Guard and an Iraq War veteran. The American military’s presence in Ha-

waii is immense, though nowhere more so than Oahu, where it controls about a quarter of the island’s land. But now, budget cuts and changing technological and strategic priorities have the Pentagon–and the U.S. Army in particular–rethinking its footprint in Hawaii. And this has state officials (well, except for Maui Rep. Kaniela Ing, who we’ll get to in a moment) screaming. If only someone had predicted a long time ago that, regardless of ideological concerns, a community, an island, an entire state could get itself addicted to the machinery of war. That the army bases, naval stations and airfields could become so intertwined into the local economy that those living near them would demand they remain–even if their whole reason for being no longer existed. Oh, wait, someone did:
“The conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience,” outgoing President Dwight Eisenhower said in 1961. “In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the militaryindustrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.” Activist Khara Jabola Carolus agreed in a Feb. 2, 2015 Honolulu Civil Beat op-ed piece. “As much as we, as a society, are addicted to federal dollars linked to military spending, the military is addicted to the youth from our communities who struggle with poverty and joblessness,” she wrote. “Now is the moment to decrease our inter-generational dependency on the U.S. military.”
This view, though steeped in historical practicality, is decidedly the minority view in Hawaii.
P
ut simply, the U.S. Army wants to reduce the size of active duty force from the 562,000 it fielded at the end of the 2012 fiscal year to 490,000 by the year 2020. Proposed two years ago, the plan will require troop reductions at bases across the country. This includes Schofield Barracks and Fort Shafter on Oahu. Named for Civil War officers and Medal of Honor winners John Schofield and William Rufus Shafter, the forts are home to about 25,000 Army troops. The two bases are more than a century old. Shafter dates to 1907, while Schofield opened a year later. Schofield Barracks has an almost romantic feel, possibly because the great World War II novel and movie

cuts “will take the Army down to pre-World War II levels.” If a U.S. soldier back in 1945 was equivalent to one today, this would indeed be cause for concern. But given the fact that today’s army, though smaller than its World War II counterpart, is far better trained and equipped, we could probably survive quite nicely with an even smaller force (often lost in these debates over “security” is the fact that the U.S. still controls 4,800 nuclear warheads, nearly twice the total combined nuclear stockpiles of the rest of the world). Make no mistake–this isn’t happening because the White House and the Pentagon decided that we no longer need to invade oil-rich nations or bomb poor villages. The restructuring is taking place because we can now fight future wars with less people. We still need all that oil, and will still coddle all those repressive dictatorships that create the conditions ripe for bloody insurgencies, but we can do so on a smaller budget. And for that reason, the Army’s making the cuts. Last November, The New York Times reported that a little more than 1,500 captains and majors have already been forced into retirement–many at ranks substantially lower than their current levels. And for people who’ve spent their lives happily serving this nation, these cuts can be brutal. “It’s our culture, it’s our family, it’s our language,” Bill Moore, a captain in intelligence, told the paper. “A lot of us have been in since high school. We feel like we’ve given everything, our families have given everything, and they just give us a handshake and say ‘Thank you for your service.’” As far as Hawaii officials are concerned, this plan is doomsday. In fact, the Hawaii Chamber of Commerce has gone so far as to create an online petition titled “Keep Hawaii’s Heroes” (Keephawaiisheroes.org). “Save our bases,” the Chamber’s campaign states, “Our communities depend on it.” And on Tuesday, Jan. 27, U.S. Senators Brian Schatz and Mazie Hirono and Representative Tulsi Gabbard–all Hawaii Democrats–sent out emails blasting the Army for proposing cuts at Schofield and Shafter (the timing of the messages is because last week the Army held a “listening session” on Oahu for the community to speak out on the proposed cuts). “Thousands of jobs for Hawaii’s heroes

From Here to Eternity took place there. According to what the Army’s calling it’s “2020 Force Structure Realignment,” these bases will dramatically change over the next five years. The Army will “potentially” move 16,000 troops out of Schofield (18,441 people were stationed there in 2012, the baseline figure the Army used for its calculations) and another 3,800 troops from Shafter (7,431 stationed there in 2012) by 2020. “These actions are being undertaken to reshape the Army’s forces to meet more effectively national security requirements while reducing the Army’s end-strength,” army officials announced in a Jan. 18, 2013 news release on the release of the restructuring effort’s Programmatic Environmental Assessment. “The implementation of this force rebalancing is necessary to allow the Army to operate in a reduced budget climate, while ensuring the Army can continue to support the nation’s critical defense missions.” Though budget restrictions largely drove this, the Army is acknowledging that technology–and the growth of asymmetric military force, in which military “threats” are largely come from very small, nongovernmental groups and organizations– has changed the way we make war. “After more than 10 years of war, our nation is facing new challenges and opportunities that call for reshaping our defense priorities,” states the Jan. 18 news release. “Concurrent with a reduction and realignment of the force, the Army proposes to reorganize and restructure its forces using lessons learned over the past 10 years, information about what the future global security environment will be like, and results of previous brigade combat team studies to reshape the Army into a force capable of supporting the full spectrum of military operations.” In other words, big divisions of infantry, armor and artillery are increasingly obsolete in favor of “special forces”–small units of highly trained soldiers–and drones capable of firing missiles at suspected terrorists without endangering American personnel. We can question the wisdom and necessity of doing these things, but as of now, this is the future of war. The media has described the cuts with scary language, often saying (as the Christian Science Monitor reported last year) that the
25th Infantry Division soldiers moving through Makua Valley, 2013
are at stake,” Hirono said in her message. “The Army’s plan would devastate our economy and dramatically affect the military families who are so vital to Hawaii’s communities and our future.” “The Army cannot allow the budget to drive its strategy in this critically important region,” Schatz said. “The people of Hawai‘i and the soldiers here have always worked together to support our national defense and will continue to do so.” Gabbard, as mentioned a Hawaii National Guard officer, was even more alarmist. “The estimated impact would be a decrease of 5% of Honolulu’s population and a $1.35 billion hit to Hawai‘i’s economy,” she said in her news release. “Such drastic action would create a ripple effect for defense and military spending in our state, which makes up 18 percent of our economy. While there is an obvious need for economic diversification, that goal must be pursued in tandem with keeping our strongest industries productive.”
T
hough they have little say in the issue, the Hawaii state Legislature even got into the act. On Jan. 21, 44 House members (virtually the entire chamber) introduced House Concurrent Resolution 3, titled “STRONGLY OPPOSING THE UNITED STATES ARMY’S PROPOSED FORCE REDUCTION OF SCHOFIELD BARRACKS AND FORT SHAFTER BASES.” Though a non-binding resolution, much of HCR 3 read like it was written by the Republican Party back in the 1980s. It calls North Korea a “notoriously unpredictable and dangerous nation.” It denounced China’s “aggressive military growth,” “lack of transparency” and “pattern of increasingly assertive behavior in the region.” HCR 3 also included the $1.35 billion figure cited above (which it called an “estimated payroll loss”) and said the restructuring “will gravely hurt Hawaii’s economy.” On Jan. 22, the House approved HCR 3 by a vote of 43-1. The lone nay vote was Democrat Kaniela Ing of South Maui. That day, Ing explained why in four minutes worth of remarks on the House floor. If the U.S. Army wanted to pull most of its troops out of the state, Ing seems perfectly willing to hold the door for them. “I support the Army, the moves that the Army is doing,” Ing said on the House floor on Jan. 22. “If they say, strategically, this is what they want to do–move troops to the Philippines, closer to North Korea, then fine. I think we should support their efforts” (Ing
didn’t respond to a request for comment for this story). In his floor remarks, Ing mentioned the Native Hawaiians who live near Makua Valley, long a firing range for 25th Infantry Division soldiers stationed at Schofield. ‘’Our problem with the military is they don’t understand the significance of Makua Valley,’’ William J. Aila Jr. told The New York Times back in a April 1, 2001 story. ‘’They’re bombing the Earth Mother.’’ For decades, those residents–who argue that the valley’s historical, cultural and environmental significance overrides the need for combat training–have long suffered under the barrage of Army guns. “This decision will be welcome,” Ing said on Jan. 22, speaking of Makua residents. “In fact, it may not go far enough.” At times during his four-minute speech, Ing sounded like a libertarian, referring to the Army’s cuts as a huge potential to move thousands of highly trained people from the public to private sectors. “That $1.3 billion can be agriculture, technology,” he said. “It’s not about holding onto sunsetting industries and taking what we can from the federal government. It’s about home rule and self-determination.” Though he found himself in a very isolated minority, Ing’s views will probably prevail. If the Army listened to every state that complained when it tried to close a base or redistribute troops, nothing would ever change. Besides, as Bart Dame pointed out in a novel Jan. 22 Hawaii Independent essay titled “A case for army downsizing in Hawaii,” the whole restructuring could actually make life a bit sweeter for state residents. “Those of us who rent, especially near a military base, are aware how military housing allowances drive up the cost of rentals dramatically,” Dame wrote. “While that may be a plus for landlords, that advantage is negated by the huge disadvantage for renters. If the bases are downsized, the vacancies created in military housing will provide a significant boost in the supply of affordable housing for civilian renters. That would definitely be a plus.” Then again, a lot can happen in the next five years. Something really nasty could take place in Asia, and then all bets are off. But for now, it looks like the Army’s largely pulling out of Oahu. We can cry over it, or we can take Ing’s words to heart, and see it as an opportunity to build a more peaceful future. ■ editor@mauitime.com + @apignataro For more news, visit: mauitime.com/news

e know that the fine coffee grown on Maui is sensational, but it feels good to hear a coffee industry giant like Starbucks say it, too. The company’s C.A.F.E. (Coffee And Farmer Equity) practices certification only goes to those using sustainable and ethical farming of their coffee, which means the coffee farms in West Maui are doing their best for the aina and employees. “MauiGrown Coffee is excited to be accepted into this elite club of coffee farmers and producers,” said Kimo Falconer, president of MauiGrown Coffee, said in a Jan. 29 MauiGrown Coffee press release. “Starbucks has made a true commitment to ensuring the ethical sourcing of coffee and we are excited to be recognized by this responsible certification program.”

BrownChicken BrownCow Does Maui Talking story with the band’s Justin Morris
PHOTO BY AL BODENHAMER
being humble and living with the spirit of aloha opens doors to life’s treasures. Anywhere we go, our music has attracted the most interesting people and created lifelong bonds within a tribe of like-minded folks that genuinely love life and the joy that music brings people. Music is old fashioned magic. Traveling as much as we have has taught us that if you play from the heart and follow where the music leads you. You will end up exactly where you are supposed to be.
L to R: Justin Morris, Xander Hitzig, Orion Hitzig and Matt Del Olmo
Y
ou don’t hear a lot of bands sporting a fiddle, banjo, upright bass, mandolin, bass and harmonica on Maui. The string band is definitely a unique sound for the island, and comes courtesy of BrownChicken BrownCow. Their musical influences bubble up from their home, the Appalachian region, but the band has created their own flavor of American folk revival by adding a barrel load of funk. Of course, you won’t get the same experience listening to BrownChicken BrownCow through headphones–their music is in its plucky element only when live. The band doesn’t usually kiss and tell, but for their upcoming “One Night Stand” show, Maui’s only slot on the BrownChicken BrownCow dance card, guitarist Justin Morris puckered up:
Q: A:
BrownChicken BrownCow visits Maui at least once a year. What’s your connection to the island?
The band has spent a lot of time on island living and being part of the musical community. It feels like a second home to us–it feels very natural to be here once a year. We would like to make it more than once a year if we’re able.
Q: A:
So who’s in the band and what do they play?
There’s myself on guitar, dobro, upright bass; Xander Hitzig: lead vocals, fiddle, guitar, tenor banjo; Matt Del Olmo: vocals, banjo, upright bass, guitar; Orion Hitzig: mandolin, fiddle; [There’s also special guests] Hutch Hutchinson: bass [and] Steve Sargenti: harmonica.
Q:
Tell us about Hutch and Steve: why add them to your lineup this year?
Hutch and Steve have been part of our story since the beginning. Steve and Hutch have always spent time encouraging us and helping us with their talents whenever they have been available. We look up to both of those guys.
A:
Q: A:
For the last five years you’ve toured extensively. How has that affected your music?
Meeting all the people during our touring has had a huge effect on our music. Everyone we have taken time to meet, jam and socialize with has a small piece of the puzzle. From East Coast to the West Coast, to Alaska, Puerto Rico and especially Hawaii, our music has gained eclectic musical influences that we have stirred into our recipe.
Q: A:
Describe your musical recipe to fans.
BCBC composes and performs original music influenced by our Appalachian roots in West Virginia. Numerous critics around the United States have coined it “BrownChicken” as a genre in light of its unique delivery. We call it BrownChicken... Everyone in the band writes music and writes their own parts to other band members songs. So over the years, we’ve learned how to compliment each others’ style and create the sound that is truly original. Honestly, the music leads us. We have spent so much time performing and living together, we have a strong connection that creates spontaneous and exciting results on stage.
Q: A:
What has being on the road taught you?
Every day is new and has an opportunity to be the day to change your future. Turn your obstacles into opportunities. Never judge by appearances, and
Q: A:
For BrownChicken BrownCow, where was that?
We’ve traveled all over the United States–up, down, left, right and center. With every new town or city comes so many different experiences from playing in peoples living rooms to playing on the sidewalk to playing in venues in front of a packed house to playing in front of an almost completely empty room. So many incredible stories come from this after doing it for years on end.
Q: A:
Share with us a little of that old fashioned magic.
It’s hard to pick out one or two magic events that are favorites. I guess living in a van down in New Orleans for a few weeks stands out. Talk about a good time! I think busking on the sidewalks in the French Quarter was almost too good of a time and was a very unique character-building experience. I think anyone that’s interested in playing music for a living should go do that–no matter where they are in their musical career, it can only make them better.
Q: A:
Busking on corners, packed house shows and now Maui. How long will you stay?
Well, Matt and I are currently Maui residents. As for the Hitzig brothers, they are living in Portland, Oregon and will be on island for three weeks. We’ve been looking forward to seeing each other and our friends and family on island. Making jungle memories and playing music is one of our favorite ways to spend our time.
When BCBC isn’t traveling and playing together, you have side projects–Yum Yum Beast is one and the Hitzig Brothers is another. What are these bands and when can we see them?
Q: A:
Yum Yum Beast is a project created by Matt Del Olmo and me with drummer James Bowersox and bass
player John Michael. This band is fully electrified Hillbilly Funk. You can follow Yum Yum Beast on their Facebook page. They will perform this spring on Maui. Once a month you can catch the Yum Yum Beast Duet performing at Fleetwood’s on Front Street for the rooftop dining show. The Hitzig Brothers is a duet project that Orion and Xander started. There’s a certain kind of magic that happens when two brothers play music together–kind of like ESP or something crazy like that–and they wanted to see how far it could go. A lot of the music they play is inspired by old time Italian, swing, bluegrass jazz and old style country. The Hitzig Brothers are opening up for the Keels at Charley’s in Paia on Feb. 13 so if you’re interested in hearing them, come on out. They will also be playing around Portland later this spring and be posting upcoming shows on their website Hitzigbrothers.com.
Q: A:
Why is it important for you to flex creatively and musically in different directions?
Q: A:
Ok, to wrap up, tell us one thing we probably don’t know or have never heard about BCBC.
From all the different side projects we get involved in, we each grow and put more tools in our toolbox. Then when we get the band together for shows, each musician is just that much stronger and versatile. It’s nice to have a variety of artistic outlets.
One thing that most people don’t know or don’t think about is how our band operates. BCBC String Band is completely independent, self-produced and selfmanaged. With the help of our fans, we’ve traveled for five years all over the map on BrownChicken Power. Some folks see our tour schedule and hear our albums and assume we’re on a label or under professional management, but we actually have just networked and pushed to keep it all happening. We couldn’t do any of it without the support of our fans.■ jen@mauitime.com + @jenrusso For more A&E stories, visit: mauitime.com/entertainment

Film
by Barry Wurst II
'Project Almanac' Lousy titled, horrible time travel movie ★★★★★ Rated PG-13 / 106 Min.
U
pon learning bad news about his college scholarship, David (played by Jonny Weston) uncovers an old home movie of his fifth birthday. The footage reveals that, while children in 2004 are playing and celebrating his birthday, the 2014 David can be seen lurking in the background (an eerie image the movie is wise to return to often). Coincidentally, David discovers his long gone father left him a time machine in the basement. The Found Footage movie genre gets another hybrid. After using hand-held, shaky cameras to portray a horror tale (The Blair Witch Project), monster movie (Cloverfield), NASA conspiracy (Apollo 18), children’s fantasy (Earth to Echo), and comic book fantasy (Chronicle), we now have the time travel equivalent. Weston is a movie star in the making and has the presence and appeal to carry a movie. He’s terrific in the little-seen Juliette Lewis vehicle, Kelly & Cal and brings the required intensity needed here. If his performance (and the movie) does
anything right, its conveying the addiction to time traveling, playing God and constantly tinkering with life until it’s “perfect.” The same can’t be said of his co-stars, unfortunately, who are limited at playing one-note high school stereotypes. Michael Bay is the film’s executive producer, something I could’ve figured out without the end credits telling me. The invasive close ups of teen girls bending over and the ample product placements (particularly the aggressive promotions for Redbull and Petco) are Classic Bay. I can forgive the crass Bayisms. It’s the use of the time travel angle that the movie especially botches. While other time travel movies, like Looper and Time Cop, are referenced, we actually see our heroes watching Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure as a means of studying up on the subject. Here’s the thing: that movie was meant as a joke. The concept of two lovable but stupid teens using a time machine to pass high school was knowingly absurd. Here, we’re meant to take the story and the emotions on hand seriously, which is a real problem when our lead characters are this idiotic. At one point, David is about to jump through time alone, something he prom-
I know! Let's go back in time and see Back to the Future being made!
ised he’d never do. His girlfriend catches him in the act, lectures him and hops through time with him. Despite how they’ve leapt through time together and are in another reality, she, amazingly continues to yell at him. There’s also the problem of how these teens use the power to alter time: they go to Lollapalooza, get revenge on bullies, act like a know-it-all in Science class and rig the lottery for a small amount of money. Forget Bill and Ted, these are dumbest, least imaginative time travelers I can think of. Here’s a tip on how to use a time machine: try doing something you couldn’t possibly accomplish in your actual lives! Early on, one of the teens suggest using the time machine to kill Hitler, which his friend quickly brushes off with, “You
don’t know any German!” It’s a rare moment where a smart idea pops up: yes, it’d be foolish to travel to WWII-ridden Europe, not know any German and try to assassinate Der Fuhrer. Of course, while David dismisses the idea, due to lacking proficiency in German, he does allow himself multiple montages where, in lieu of perfecting a Let’s Kill Hitler mission, he, instead, time jumps to get Lollapalooza backstage passes. He definitely has his priorities straight. Project Almanac comes close to exploring some intriguing possibilities. It has an ambitious idea but the payoff is woefully limited. This is what Back to the Future would have been like if Marty McFly time traveled without the help and guidance of Doc Brown. Sorry kids, but if you want to time travel, you need parental guidance. ■

Horoscope
Sign Language AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18)
Don’t question the ease. When your half-ass efforts yield brilliant results, flow with it. That’s just how your week is. I know how hard you usually have to work for things before you catch a break, so simply accept the sweet deals, the effortless lays, and the winning numbers. You rarely get things handed to you on such shiny silver platters. Wear an enflamed sense of entitlement, for one week only, instead of clothes. It’s all you need. One minor caveat: Don’t get used to it. Come next week, you’ll have to dress yourself and work for a living, just like everyone else. PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20)
Homing pigeons don’t take their bearings from the sun; instead they follow the roads. A British team of researchers found that the birds would navigate their routes based on highways below them, even to the point of turning at junctions and going around roundabouts. So why the hell are you sweating trying to follow intermittent and vague internal signs? You’re not the first person to walk this emotional road. Sure, trusting your instincts is a good basic strategy, but sometimes you can just follow the same street signs and highways as everyone else, or, you know, ask directions. ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)
Surrender to the primitive this week. Bang on a drum. Screw in a tree, or a hot spring, or with mad animal abandon. Your power right now derives directly from your internal Neanderthal, from you-as-monkey, from your gut and your skin and your chaotic primal source. Forgive your busy brain its incessant prattling, but don’t give it much heed, either. Obviously, you’ll need to use your head often this week, just because that’s what your life demands. However, please try, whenever possible—whenever there’s a choice between instinct and dull, dry reason—to choose the one that makes an explosive supernova of your heart, not the one that merely makes sense. TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20)
Your worst and most incriminatory actions tend to sprout from a feeling of smallness, or not mattering. Now, everyone feels this way from time to time—only you Bulls are such effective and dangerous people that when you act out, there are usually serious repercussions. Therefore, may I suggest taking proactive steps to avoid that feeling of inconsequentiality? For instance, I’m always learning something, and it feels good to spend time every day acquiring a tangible new piece of knowledge. Starting today, follow my example, and become, in whatever way you wish, more than you were yesterday, and the day before, and so on. Soon you’ll be so big inside yourself that the thought of doing anything the least bit petty or mean won’t even occur to you. GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)
Your life is a fairy tale this week—or as close as real life gets—and not the boring parts of those stories, either, like when the princess pricks her finger on a spindle and sleeps for a hundred years. Instead, look for more exciting action, like becoming the beneficiary of an almost magical godmother figure, engaging in victorious battle against an evil, tyrannizing dragon, or finally proving yourself the rightful heir to a throne (of sorts). No more biding your time in an ivory tower waiting for something to happen. Come on, Rapunzel. Let down your goddamn hair already. The prince is waiting. CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)
Be prepared for minor, yet profound surprises this week. An example of what to look out for: having the wallet you lost three years ago returned, with all photos, cards, and cash still inside (all $18 of it); or your former best friend finally calling you after coming to his senses about his foray into the evil cult of Scientology; or discovering evidence that your childhood pet really did go to live on a farm for years, instead of being put to sleep, as you’d suspected. In the grand scheme of things, big deal; you’d already let these things go ages ago, gotten over it, and happily moved on. But allow-
ing a few more blessings into your little world can only improve it, so why wouldn’t you? LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)

1: B–Kaiser Permanente 2: E–123,071 3: D–Jack in the Box
This is a shitty time for your sense of entitlement to fail you. Where’s your fabled cockiness? Your indomitable self-confidence? When something this good and unprecedented happens to you, you’re not supposed to cringe and doubt your worthiness. Instead, regally and graciously receive it as your rightful due. Also, resist questioning the obvious value or veracity of the treasure in front of you. It’s real, it’s here, it’s worth more than you could ever know, and it’s yours. Yes, you’re very, very lucky. Never forget that, or cease to be thankful for it. But just accept it, already.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)
A cow in Gujarat, India, accidentally swallowed 1,722 diamonds dropped by a local merchant. Now the poor guy is keeping a vigil over the beast, waiting for it to shit out the precious stones. Similarly, you’ve mislaid a bunch of your own personal treasure, and you’re in the same boat as that unlucky fellow: if you want your riches back, you’ll have to sift through a lot of shit to find it. Go ahead and tap into some of your long-held reserves of patience and persistence. It’ll pay off. But eventually you’ll have to throw up your hands and let some of your former fortune go. At that point, just walk away, counting your blessings, all 1,619 of them.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)
As I was walking my dog in the frigid cold outside last night, I heard the macabre chime of an ice cream truck coming down my street. I was convinced I was mistaken; what idiot would try to sell frozen treats in subzero weather? Further investigation revealed that a Mr. Softee truck was indeed parked nearby, hawking its wares, and what’s more, people were buying! When I reviewed your astrological forecast for the week, I thought of this situation—it’s not exactly prime season for people to buy what you’re selling, but if I were you, I’d put it all out there anyway. You might be surprised. SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)
Quit making excuses. Yeah, you have some legitimate reasons for bailing on some of your more daunting responsibilities or opportunities, but mostly you need to admit that all the obstacles you’re citing are so surmountable, mere molehills compared to some of the mountains you’ve climbed in the past. So what’s stopping you? From here it looks like either laziness or an unprecedented failure of courage. Buck up. If you wait for them to construct a ski lift to the top, you’ll be waiting way too long, and miss out on the long, exhilarating rides down the other side.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)
I can’t believe it’s come to this: a lecture about Wallflower Syndrome. You Sagittarians are notoriously larger-than-life, so I’m just plain shocked that you’re considering taking in your own oversize britches. There’s a fine line between humility and selling yourself short, and you’ve crossed it—in the wrong direction. “It’s better to be humble than arrogant,” I hear you muttering, in your own defense. Screw that. You’re among the best, so just own it. If you don’t, some cheap hack is going to get what you deserve because he’s willing to sing his own praises when you’re not. CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19)
Thank you, Capricorn, for being receptive to outlandish ideas these past few weeks. This is a good general move for you, as history shows that some of your best plans are hatched out of the oddest eggs (and often go through some seriously ugly duckling stages along the way before they mature into the elegant solutions they’re destined to become). So keep it up; your diligent open-mindedness is the only key you need to unlock the doors behind which lie your most fascinating and successful paths. Feel like settling for the thirdbest route into your future? Just stop listening. To contact Caeriel send mail to sign.language.astrology@gmail.com.
