OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK

We have never had a reason to respond to an article in any publication until now. The response to "Don't Want a Fat Wife" in March 27, 2003; Volume 6, Issue 39, on page 30 written by the "Advice Goddess," Amy Alkon, was one of the most insulting and degrading columns that we have ever read. How dare she compare any woman to livestock, a trailer, or 3 zip codes. We can't believe that a woman wrote this response. Even if she was trying to be sarcastic or humorous, she goes far beyond that boundary.

Just because the "questioner" is not attracted to heavy women, it doesn't justify her rude comparisons regarding women who are heavy. Maybe Amy has never had a weight issue, however it does not give her the right to degrade other women whose bodies don't conform to what society has deemed how a woman should look. It is articles like this that perpetuate teenage girls and young women to have eating disorders, which eventually ruins their health and lives along with the lives of their family and friends.

Amy should seriously consider how her comments would affect others. As an advice columnist she needs to remember that many people will read this column, especially if they have a similar situation and this "advice" would not help anyone.

Correction, we would not even call her response "advice."

We would like to add that The Maui Time Weekly is an informative publication with many wonderful articles and reviews about the Valley Isle, and columns like this spoil the image created.

From two "Pissed - Off" Women Lori F. & Kimi K.

DO THE RIGHT THING Bad planning and lack of initiative on the part of government and community leaders resulted in a recent decision to allow Oahu's landfill to increase in height by 30 feet, giving them just eight more months of landfill space. And then what?

Add acreage to the landfill? Nearby residents and businesses are loudly opposed to that plan. Send more stuff to H-Power for incineration? Not all trash should or can be burned, and no incineration method is completely 'clean.'

Maui will soon face a similar situation unless we make some wise decisions now.

Three task forces have studied this problem during the last 13 years. All three came to the same conclusions: 1. Anything that can be recycled, composted, or reused on Maui must be, as opposed to buried in the landfill.

2. Based on 'equitable user fees', called Pay-As-You-Throw; recycling must be rewarded, while throwing stuff in the landfill must not.

3. The people of Maui must have the option of taking clean, usable material to a materials recovery facility (MRF) where it

can be sorted and made available for re-use.

These recommendations have been developed and refined over decades in communities on the Mainland, Europe, and Canada. We don't have to invent anything. What we do need is good planning and initiative on the part of our elected representatives. Oahu is providing us with a wonderful example of what happens when we ignore the inevitable and fail to seize opportunities to do the right thing, the right way.

Joy Webster Executive Director, Maui Recycling Group, Inc.

TAKE A MOMENT Let's take a moment and look around us.

Observe what is around you, what is yours, what was yours and what you wish would be yours. All this is irrelevant without peace. Now observe the beauty of everything around you.

Observe the beautiful stillness of the rock, how the wind moves the branches of the trees, the depth of the sky, the dedication of the sunrise and sunset everyday, the beautiful glow of the moon every night, the wonderful innocent look coming from the deep brown eyes of your pets.

This is peace. Let's take a moment to feel this peace and share with the one next to you.

Let's pray... Send your angels to the innocent people in Iraq for their peace, safety and tranquillity, that their hardship will end fast and painless. Let’s not just send our angels today to Iraq. Let’s send our angels everyday to everyone in this world. This is again another opportunity to awaken our souls and realize one more time that peace is not just for ourselves. It's a moment to share and learn to increase peace around the world. But your first step is to work with your loved ones and forgiveness for those teaching us in a hard way.

We have to learn to transform power and hate for love and compassion. It's our mission to help the human evolution. We have been taking for granted all the beauty we've had.

One more time, we are again learning through this experience (war). But fortunately the universe is compassionate one more time with us.

Now our job is to accept living in peace which generates wonderful and positive experiences.

After we realize that, we should contribute to global peace, not just keep it inside of us. Allow yourself to take your first step. You don't need to wait for others anymore.

No one should feel hopeless under this circumstance, it's never too late for a good action.

There is a lot of work to do. Please keep your thoughts focused on peace and your hearts filled with love no matter what is going on around you.

Remember that "there is only one of us here."

OPINIONS BY TRAVIS HENDERSON

OF COURSE, NOW THEY WANT TO BE FRIENDS As the war in Iraq enters its final (hopefully) stage, there is an interesting scramble going on concerning the future roles by the international community in rebuilding Iraq.

Countries that were screaming against the war are now saying they should be included in helping to rebuild it, with France by far being the most notable about-face. The French ambassador to the U.N. comes out and says France has been made an unfair scapegoat for the negative pre-war wrangling that occurred in the U.N. Our deepest apologies Mr. Ambassador. How could we ever consider the "guaranteed veto of any war resolution" by your Prime Minister Chirac as anything but a direct slap in the face to the United States? Scapegoat is not the word. Maybe Turncoat fits a little better.

Secondly, the French ambassador said that France should be included in discussions about rebuilding Iraq. And there are people who accuse President Bush of having only economic interests in mind when it came to invading Iraq? The difference between Bush and the French is that at least Bush has the guts to go in and do the dirty work before reaping any economic benefits. France, on the other hand, sits on the sidelines and doesn't even wait until the dust settles before trying to claim a piece of the pie. If anything, their behavior is ten times more despicable than anything the United States is accused of doing.

And the accusation that we're only doing this for oil? France threatened to veto any U.N. resolution on the premise of moral grounds. But in reality, its largest oil company, Total Fina Elf, has a 20-year deal to develop Iraq's Nahr Umar oil field.

This field alone counts for up to 25% of the entire country's oil production. How much do you stand to lose by us going to war, Mr. Ambassador? 7-? 8-billion?

France is also responsible for 22.5 % of Iraq's imports, not including their responsibility for 13.5% of Iraq's arms imports. All Bush wants to do is remove a man who rapes

and kills his own citizens for sport. France is the country that has the dollar signs on the mind.

While all this moral posturing sounds good in the papers and on TV, what France and others need to realize before the push for post-war rebuilding gets underway is that there may be some problems involved. Democracy is not an easy thing to embrace, just ask Boris Yeltsin.

When communism crumbled, Russia was going to be the next greatest example of democratic triumph, behind the U.S. of course. What we got instead was a massive takeover by the criminal underworld and a complete fragmentation of the country. Democracy takes courage, discipline, and willpower. Evil has too much freedom to rise to the top of the heap, and the determination necessary to overcome that evil through the belief that good will prevail cannot be taught. Bush's intentions and vision to liberate Iraq from evil may be noble, but unless others believe that vision, his efforts will be futile.

UNCONSTITUTIONAL? While we have young adults fighting and dying in Iraq, the commissioner of the NBA, David Stern, is trying to push a resolution through the league that would create a limit for eligibility to age 20. Basically, that means that a man can be a professional killer at age 18 if he's in Iraq, but he cannot be a professional basketball player if he is in the United States. Commissioner Stern thinks that young men would benefit from a few years in college. But not everyone wants to go to college.

Some people think college is a waste of time and would rather enter the work force instead. But Stern, the owners, and the veterans in charge of the NBA Players Association, would benefit from a forced reduction in the number of players entering the NBA too soon, effectively meaning this resolution has a decent chance of passing.

And why the NBA? The NFL and MLB both have youth in their line-ups. More kids jump straight from high school into Major League Baseball than in the NBA. If the NBA needs to create a minor league system, they should do so. But to turn the college ranks into a de facto minor league farm system would only provide the knockout punch for an education system already on the ropes.

DOE Fires 2000 Substitutes were receiving their letters.

“The confusing thing,” said David, “is that I already received a letter at the end of September from Patricia Hamamoto, Superintendent, that said I had four years to complete my degree.

The letter the DOE just sent out in March is a misrepresentation of the NCLB Act.” When DOE spokesman Greg Knudsen was contacted, he said he knew nothing about any other letter. We have printed the letter below.

everyday but three last year (by law, companies must carry insurance on employees who work over 20 hours a week).

No insurance? What could he do? David walked to the mailbox to see what mail arrived while he was in the hospital. He saw a letter from the DOE and opened it.

Very, very bad news. David was fired. Yes, fired, as of the end of this school year. He was shocked, especially since the State of Hawaii doesn’t allow substitute teachers to be eligible for unemployment either.

(Other states do). Even though he has worked for over 11 years, the DOE said he is not allowed to work after the end of this school term. According to the DOE, the No Child Left Behind Act says all teachers must have at least a BA degree.

That is not entirely true. The No Child Left Behind Act clearly states that all teachers (and certainly substitute teachers) are given until the school year of 2004-2005 to get their BA. David is just one of 2,000 substitutes who will not be rehired next year. While David was in the hospital having heart surgery, many of the other substitutes

The letter clearly states in the NCLB law that requirements must be met in four (4) years. It appears that the State of Hawaii is once again not honoring the law.

The question is, with a terrible teacher shortage in Hawaii and never enough substitutes, why is the DOE taking this approach, firing substitutes four years before it is necessary? Moreover, one of the key points in the NCLB Act is that it provides funding for Alternative Certification and Retention Innovations. That means the Federal Government would give the State of Hawaii money to find methods of Alternative Certification for David and others. After all, he has been teaching for the state for 11 years.

So why is the DOE suddenly firing 2,000 substitutes? Is it because of the case already in litigation regarding the illegally withheld funds?

Does the DOE believe if they fire all of the thousands of substitutes to whom they owe money that will settle the problem? Or is the DOE just lazy and trying to find an easy answer for a really big problem; our schools. Whatever the answer is, it seems certain that David Garner has had his share of surprises this year, and as an observer all we can say is, “Lucky you don’t work DOE in Hawaii.”

Fine Shops

➙

David Garner is bringing new meaning to the phrase “the vicissitudes of life”, or the unexpected ups and downs of life.

David is the substitute teacher who grappled with the Department of Education earlier this year when the DOE, according to David, illegally withheld a large portion of substitute teachers’ salary for over six years. He had a win, of sorts, since the case reached litigation and it is scheduled to be heard in court in the near future. He received kudos from his fellow substitute teachers and was interviewed more than once by the press. David was feeling good and awaited his day in court.

Then, two days before Spring Break, on the morning of March 20, the vicissitudes started.

As he stepped out of the shower and was getting ready for another day of teaching, he suddenly had a terrible pain in his chest and a massive heart attack – a 95% blockage. He was flown to Honolulu for emergency surgery.

The good news is that David fully recovered and returned home to Maui just four days later, on March 24th. The bad news is that the operation costs between $50,000 and $60,000 but David has no insurance.

The State of Hawaii gives no medical insurance to their substitute teachers (other states do), even though David taught

LEAD STORIES

WEIRD SCIENCE

Scientists at the University of Southern California will soon begin testing an artificial brain prosthesis (a silicon chip that mimics the hippocampus), which, if successful, can help people who cannot store future and recent memories of their experiences. One problem with the project (according to a March story in New Scientist): Subjects might not remember anything about the research or consenting to participate in it. (Another problem: Nearly everyone is glad not to be able to recall some negative experiences.)

In a three-hour operation in February at the Nil Ratan Sircar Medical College Hospital in Calcutta, India, doctors performed what they claimed was the world's first penis transplant.

Dr. Ashok Ray, lead surgeon, had been in the process of removing a troublesome second penis on a 1-year-old boy when someone elsewhere in the hospital informed him that a baby boy had just been born without one.

READERS' CHOICE In March, former Northwest Airlines flight attendant Daniel Reed Cunningham was charged with slyly drugging the apple juice of a severely rambunctious 19month-old baby during a 2002 flight. The mother became suspicious after tasting the juice and so slipped some into a container for later testing (which revealed Xanax).

NO LONGER WEIRD Adding to the list of stories that were formerly weird but which now occur with such frequency that they must be retired from circulation: (61) Parent(s) who leave young children home alone for days at a time, certain that they can care for themselves, while they frolic, as a 31-year-old Placentia, Calif., woman did in December, leaving her kids, ages 7 and 4, for three weeks to go see a North Carolina man she had met on the Internet. (62) And men who steal industrial (slow-moving) vehicles and apparently try to outrun pursuing police cars, as a 29-year-old man did in February with a farm tractor (towing an 18-foot-wide chisel plow), piddling along for 20 miles from near Wheaton, Minn., into South Dakota, "chased" by sheriff's deputies until he finally crashed.

LEADING ECONOMIC INDICATORS New Concierge Services: In Melbourne, Australia, in March, John Stark, 60, and his wife and son pleaded guilty to running a scheme in which the Starks "ordered" large quantities of upscale goods, which two shoplifter-associates would then go "acquire" for them so that the Starks could resell them in the family's Shopaholic discount stores. And a burglary ring in New York City was even more specific: According to March indictments, they stole only items specifically requested by individual patrons who had heard by word of mouth that they could drop off a wish list and then buy the items at a deep discount when the goods "came in."

COLD CALLS Cold Calls catches different perspectives on issues important to our island community. The following interviews were conducted on the spot and interviewees were not given advance notice or preparation time.

Pali Closures DEBBIE PROBST Average daily commuter from Lahaina to Kahului How many times a year does the Pali Highway get shut down?

Twelve times.

When the Pali does shut down, how long does it shut down for?

Between one and seven hours.

How much money per hour do you think these road closures cost Maui’s economy?

I’m not sure.

Why do you think our road closure contingency plans have been ineffective thus far?

I need to answer that with a question.

What are our road closure contingency plans? Being stuck in many road closures, I find there are no contingency plans which allow for passage when the road is

closed.

Are you in favor of widening the Pali?

Why? I am for and against widening the Pali. I believe it would help traffic flow but I am very frightened of the process of road work on the Pali and having the road closed to fix it.

CPT. CHARLES HIRATA Maui Police Department How many times a year does the Pali Highway get shut down?

Three, maybe four times at the most.

Hopefully not all in the same month.

When the Pali does shut down, how long does it shut down for?

It depends on the situation. If it’s for a fire, we’ve had it shut down for one day. For a traffic crash, they usually average about four hours. During that four hours we can also have a partial reopening. But even a four hour closure means an additional three hours of slow traffic backlog.

How much money per hour do you think

these road closures cost Maui’s economy?

That is difficult to calculate, however I’m willing to bet that it is going to run in fuel and increased costs. People having to rebook air travel, thousands… tens of thousands or even more. It would be considerable.

Why do you think our road closure contingency plans have been ineffective thus far?

You need to know that there is a new contingency plan coming out. We’ve done a lot of things to minimize road closure time. That includes using new technologies like Photogrammetry.

Are you in favor of widening the Pali? Why? Definitely. If we can separate the lanes of travel with two roads of transport going different directions it will prevent head-on collisions. These are the types of accidents that close the roads.

DON MEDEIROS Transportation coordinator with Maui County

How many times a year does the Pali Highway get shut down?

I think if we look at last year, I think it was about four times or so. I think. I haven’t looked it up, but I think that is what it was.

When the Pali does shut down, how long does it shut down for?

Oh boy, that’s a hard one. It all depends on what the situation is. With traffic accidents it has been as short as three hours to as long as I think five. If we have a fire it has been longer.

How much money per hour do you think these road closures cost Maui’s economy?

Oh my. You know that’s a hard one to touch because part of it is when the tourists miss the flight. What does that cost us ultimately in people not coming? I have no idea, but I’m sure it’s significant.

Why do you think our road closure contingency plans have been ineffective thus far?

I’d have to think about that one, Tommy. I don’t know if they have been ineffective. I think that since the police department has been able to update their way of handling the crime scene, that the time has been shortened.

I think some of our efforts are working. We are just strapped by the infrastructure.

Are you in favor of widening the Pali? Why? Of course. It will offer an option when we have a problem such as an accident or a fire. It would help, I believe.

Keopualani Pro Skater 4 Skateboarding to some local folks is a bunch of little kids skating around causing trouble. But in reality, skateboarding, to the ones who actually skate, means highly competitive, professional athletes who get paid the big bucks to travel the world.

Some of those athletes traveled to Maui recently, and showed their abilities to little kids who look up to these hero-like figures. The skateboard action demos featured the pro skateboard teams of Da Kine and Volcom. Other sponsors included

Transworld magazine, Big Brother magazine, Maui Family YMCA, Hi-Tech Surf Sports, and Shapers.

Day one of the demos started with the kids lining up for autographs from the likes of Da Kine riders; Mike Vallely, Paul Machnau, and Chris Haslim at Shapers in Queen Ka'ahumanu Center. These guys were impressed with the turnout of kids. The air was full of excitement. The Ka’ahumanu security guards were not happy with that many loud and anxious kids in one area, but that was just the lull before the storm.

Everything went smoothly and there were lots of happy campers that walked away with free giveaways. The next stop for the team was Kahului's Keopualani Skate Park. Picture 200 kids surrounding the park, the DJ, "Boomshot", blasting punk and hip-hop, and three skate pros launching all over the place.

Some of our local skate kids were turning heads also, like Darren Tsue, Evan Strong, and Zack Chapman.

One of the highlights of the day was when Mike "V" ollied off a 4 ft. transition all the way up on to the 5 ft. chain link fence behind it, then ollieing back down to disaster on the coping and riding out into the flats. It took him a few tries but he didn't quit until he pulled it.

The Da Kine guys worked really hard to put on a good show for Maui, and in my opinion it was the best street demo Maui has had.

Day two was Volcom! What comes to mind when you think of that name? Hmmm! A little

craziness, and it seemed a little craziness was what the Ka’ahumanu security guards were thinking. Picture a line of humans from the escalators all the way to Sharper Image at Maui's biggest shopping center. Now think of that line, full-of-people for over an hour and a half, moving slowly towards an autograph from the one and only, Geoff Rowley. You know, the one in the "Play Station" video game, and the Vans TV commercials. Oh yeah, Mark Appleyard, and Allan Peterson were also there.

due to an injury he suffered on Oahu the day before, it was the best autograph turnout at Shapers since Laird and the Strapped crew a few years ago. And, of course, Volcom rewarded the line with multiple giveaways.

Keopualani Park was even fuller than the day before. More kids came out of the woodwork waiting for some action, and a big product toss.

They wouldn't be disappointed with either.

Chaos is what you could say for this demo. Kids hooting, "Boomshot" blasting, the energy was thick. Allan Peterson was trying to do 360˚ airs over the whole volcano. Mark Appleyard was hitting every rail and ledge he could find. Geoff Rowley was warming up, then realized he couldn't shake all the kids wanting his autograph. Rick Kosick was there from Big Brother magazine, the photog guy from MTV's "Jack Ass", the series and movie. Kosiak said that Darren Tsue, our local skate kid from Baldwin High, was doing the highest hard flips he had ever seen. From a guy who has seen it all in skateboarding, that says a lot for our local Maui talent. After the skating, the product toss was huge, what else would you expect from Volcom?

Day three was Kalama Park in Kihei! It may have been the first time that professional skaters had done a Kalama demo since the park opening. It was basically the same situation, lots of parents with their kids buzzing all over the place trying to find a spot to stand, so they could watch the non-stop action. Skate pros, loud music, it was an instant skate session. Paul Machnau tried numerous times to pull a kick-flip to board slide on one of the rails, and didn't stop 'til he pulled it ala Mike "V". Chris Haslim was shredding on the mini-ramp even though he had an injured ankle from their recent Oahu stay. Once again, Da Kine ended the session by tossing a bunch of prizes.

Maui kids got to see some heavy hitters in the professional skateboard world along with getting some free stuff, not bad for three days work! Till next time, signing off.

COVER STORY

Standing alone onstage, one woman can make tears come to your eyes and make your stomach ache as she discusses many issues in her life that most people wouldn't dare to talk about. Issues that range from her Korean mother whose old school ways are a mystery to us all, to “going down on a woman”. That woman is the one, the only, Margaret Cho. Her one-woman act, The Revolution Tour, is coming to Maui on Sunday, April 13, at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center in the Castle Theater.

Cho's previous shows have contained swear words and detailed sexual encounters with men and women. Some would consider her act to be profane. Others would disagree. Maui County is one that would agree her show is profane.

According to Maui County, performances that contain profane language cannot have alcohol within the building where the show is being performed. Luckily for Cho, there is no drinking or eating within the Castle Theater. However, there is drinking allowed outside.

Doesn't this law dispute our rights as Americans to have freedom of speech? The last time I checked, I thought I could yell fuck or shit or asshole as loud as I wanted in a venue where alcohol is being sold. But performers can't?

But what exactly is profane? A swear word?

A sexual organ being talked about? A reference to homosexual experience? According to the American Heritage dictionary, profane is described as, “marked by contempt or irreverence for what is sacred” and it is also described as being “vulgar and coarse”. Cho doesn't think her show is profane. She also has a different view on what profane means.

"I think it is weird that Maui County has that law," Cho said. "I think profane means racism, sexism, homophobia and violence towards women. I don't think what I do is profane."

Neither do millions of her fans. Her past tours have sold out and she has made mad bucks selling her DVD’s and records. Cho is in a position where she is calling the shots. She runs her own production company and doesn't have to answer to anybody.

"I'm not answering to a label or a network or a studio," Cho said. "That is all so generated.

It's great because I can control what I am doing all so easily and I say whatever I want which is very important to me."

Cho didn't always call the shots. Growing up in San Francisco with two Korean parents, she felt like a reject as a child and when she started her career as a comedienne. She didn't have

many friends and her parents didn't pay much attention to her. Her awkwardness resulted in being teased by everyone. When it was time to start auditioning for her career, rejection didn't phase Cho. She said everyone else would be upset because of an audition, when she would have gone through something a million times worse in her audition, but she would let that experience roll right off her shoulder. She didn't care because she had been an outcast from the beginning and being rejected was just part of her life.

At the sweet age of 16, Cho got her first comedic show at The Rose and Thistle, which was located above her parents’ bookstore. She didn't graduate high school but kept on with her career until she landed her own sitcom on ABC entitled “All-American Girl”. The show portrayed Cho as a Korean teenager growing up in a typical Korean household. In one of her standup shows, “I'm the One That I Want”, Cho describes her ordeal with the TV network as a living hell. At the age of 23, the network told Cho her face was too round and she needed to lose weight. A crash diet was established and she had to workout six times a week, four hours a day.

She lost the weight and ended up in the hospital.

“All-American Girl” ended as fast as it began.

"When I started the show, it hit me about my rejection in life," Cho said. "I finally got somewhere and ultimately, I got rejected."

Now, at the age of 34, Cho is done obsessing about her weight. She said as soon as she got over a certain idea of how she should look, then everything physically started to fall into place. She feels better and doesn't give a shit anymore. Cho is not image conscious nowadays and she doesn't pay attention to what society says she should look like.

Way to go, Cho! Women around Maui are now standing up and applauding a celebrity who says, “F*#k what society says, I am me

and if you don't like it, you can kiss my Asian ass.” Her shows are about her life and it's real.

It's not all an act. Cho talks openly about everything in her shows, as well as when she is talking one on one with someone like me.

There was one question in particular that I had to know and I thought Cho could answer it better than anyone. Do all Asian men have small penises? The reason for my question is, I read an article in Cosmo that said Asian men have small penises and Asian women have small vaginal canals. Perfect fit?

"I think that's probably right, although, I've never thought that size was a determining factor," Cho said.

Her favorite lover was a white man who was small. Actually she said he was weirdly small. Despite his small package, he was great. Cho said it's not about size, it's about imagination and whether or not a man cares for you. Biology and physicality have nothing to do with it, Cho said.

Experimenting with an acorn-size penis seemed enjoyable to Cho, so did experimenting with women. There was a year in her life where she strictly dated women. She was fed up with men and she was trying to find what she was looking for. According to Cho, most women her age have had a sexual experience with another woman. Men are into women getting on women and she wanted to impress the men.

After a year, she realized that wasn't her route.

Cho has had relationships with gay men as well as women. She grew up in a prevalent gay community in San Francisco, and a lot of her gay friends acted like mother and father to her.

Her parents worked so much that she raised herself. Her gay friends were very supportive of Cho and to this day, she has many gay friends.

In 2000, GLAAD awarded Cho with the Golden State Award. The award recognized Cho for standing up for ‘equal rights for all,

regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity'. She has also won New York Magazine's Performance of the Year Award and Entertainment Weekly's Great Performances of the Year.

"I don't know why I get awards for the work that I do," Cho said. "It's nice to be recognized for it."

Cho is an average person. She hasn't gotten sucked into the Hollywood fame. She hasn't even watched her own E! Celebrity Profile nor does she read articles that are written about her.

She is close with her parents just like most people, even though they don't really understand what she does for a living. Cho said they are happy because she is making money and that's what most Korean people are happy with. Her mother still hasn't discussed where babies come from and her father apologized to her fiancé because she hasn't had proper training as a wife.

Cho is at a peaceful stage in her life. She just doesn't care what people think anymore. Her insecurities are gone and acceptance has finally fallen into place.

Once you stop caring about what other people think, that's when life starts to get good, Cho explained. Enough said.

at prices ranging from $5.50 to $6.75. The Ono burger is billed as “the best fish sandwich on Maui”, and while I don’t think they’ve quite achieved this mark, the sandwich is pretty good with a nice, healthy portion of fish. The Hana picnic lunch is $8.50 and comes with a sandwich, soda or juice, chips or fruit, two homemade cookies, a mac-nut candy bar, and free use of a Hana tour CD. You can also rent a cooler for free with a $5 deposit and even take a dog on your picnic for no extra charge.

And now we get to the meat of the problem.

Without fail the first topic of any discussion regarding Maui Grown Market, by friends or strangers, is the dogs. They lounge about the property, under a bush by the steps, on the deck by the front door, and even inside the shop like shaggy speed bumps. This certainly creates an authentic, homey kind of country feel, but the realism gets a bit extreme with the smell. I’m sympathetic to the problem: I have two country dogs myself that have been known to acquire quite an odor. But I’m not selling sandwiches right over their heads and loaning them out for picnics, either.

In keeping with the relaxed country theme, it’s taken from as little as five minutes to as long as thirty-five minutes, depending on the day, to have my sandwiches made. I’ve learned

One of my favorite things to do is listen to other people talk about food and the places that serve it, especially if they don’t know about this little side job that I have.

This way I can be sure that I’m getting an honest, unfiltered read on a place. I’ve been hearing a lot of things about Maui Grown Market in Haiku lately, mostly negative, and I’m writing this week partly to let everyone in on the buzz, but mostly in the hopes that an awareness of public opinion will lead the owners of this quaint country establishment to make changes that are beneficial to their business.

Maui Grown Market is the first of many “last stops before Hana” deep in the rolling countryside that is Haiku.

They are located in what appears to be a converted home on the corner of Ulumalu and Hana Hwy. It’s a small shop selling sodas, chips, fruit, and other small snack items with a tiny sandwich kitchen tucked into the back. The menu is posted on the wall behind the register with many additions handwritten on large cards and tacked to the wall in haphazard fashion. They serve all the basics like turkey, avocado and veggie, pastrami, ham and cheese, roast beef, and tuna

Maybe a little too relaxed? by experience to call my order in ahead so that I can spend my time waiting at home rather than in the pungent company of dogs, only to be warned right away of a thirty to forty-five minute wait. For sandwiches!

Maui Grown Market has a lot of potential by direct virtue of its location. A steady stream of visitors drive by everyday, and I’m sure that they are the lifeblood keeping this tiny operation alive. There is also a substantial population of potential customers living nearby, how-

Waterbrook Winery Red Mountain, 1999 Merlot $18.99

Waterbrook is a small Walla Walla, Washington State winery producing great wine at a price that’s hard to beat. Located in the southeastern part of the state, right on the Washington/Oregon border, they are sourcing their fruit from some of the best vineyards in Washington.

The wine of the week is their Red Mountain Merlot. It’s 92% Merlot and 8% Cabernet Franc obtained from a few vineyards in the Red Mountain region, including the Klipsun, Ciel Du Cheval and Red Mountain Vineyards. This Merlot is not just an ordinary average Merlot. Aged for 18 months in French Oak, it has a fresh, darkberry, cedar aroma, with soft ripe cherry on the palate. Nice bold tannins surround the finish. If you’re the type to just sip and enjoy, you can do so with this wine, maybe with some soft cheese and bread. If you’re the type that likes to pair your wine with food, this wine will go well with an herb-rubbed rack of lamb, sauced with a thick demi-glaze. Enjoy!

ARTS&ENTERTAINMENT

BY LAWRENCE TAYLOR

New Artist, New Gallery, Old Ideas Recently controversy struck when artwork of nudes, from a promising new artist, hit the Front Street gallery scene. Front Street, one of the most prolific art areas in the world, introduced Carolyn Quan for a shortened stay of three days to thoughtful reviews and the chagrin of others.

The invitation to show art at a quaint new gallery was extended to Carolyn Quan, by the owner, in hopes of bringing in more buyers and making more sales of art. Art dominates the Front Street scene and buyers from around the world can purchase select art from Picasso to prominent local artists. With hundreds of local artists vying for coveted wall space in galleries, the opportunity for Ms. Quan to show her art was one that couldn't be missed.

On Thursday, a day after the invitation, Carolyn immediately went about the task of preparing select pieces of art for display in the gallery. "It's not often that an artist on this island gets a shot at a gallery on Front Street.

I knew this was a big break for me," Carolyn chirps in her always-positive way. "Of course, I was excited but I also knew that my art wasn't so-called ‘mainstream’." Aware of what art she'd sold before and had received the most attention for at other venues, Carolyn picked out some of her best sellers not once thinking that they were risqué. The Front Street exposure would open new doors.

On Friday night, ‘Art Night' as it's known to locals, Carolyn's art was seen by hundreds of people strolling by, some of them families. The slow night, by Front

Street standards, did not produce much business for any of the items being sold. The next night produced the same results though the owner believed that he had found the reason the nude artwork. Though nothing definitive was stated about how any tourist reacted to the nudes, it is certain that the owner had to stare at them each day. By Sunday night, the owner, along with the other showing artist, concluded that the nudes were offending people and that the art simply wasn't mainstream enough.

The owner stated that on a couple of occasions, families with younger children drifted into the store only to run out with their kids in tow.

He said they were obviously offended and he was sure he lost sales as a result.

The owner and gallery manager agreed to keep her latest collage on the wall "because it is representative of what tourists are looking for.” The photo collage is an 18"x 72" panoramic with scenes depicting the people, marine life, beaches, gardens and the beauty of Hana and Hawaii, all without nudity.

Carolyn's work is certainly miles away from the more common marine images often seen on the street. This doesn't bother her. "Art from some of the greatest artists ever known were considered different, not mainstream and even risqué," Carolyn admits.

Indeed, you can find Carolyn’s art around the island in a few galleries who proudly display her nudes and other interesting photo collages. At Pacific Center of Photography, located in Wailuku, they have not one but three of Carolyn’s photo collages of the nude variety hanging in their street front bay windows. Not

small, these images are about 8 feet tall and command attention to anyone approaching the intersection of Central and Vineyard.

When asked if Carolyn’s art has stirred up any concerns, Gallery Director Kevin McMurray responded, “For what? The only questions I get about the art in the window is ‘Who is the artist?’”

Carolyn is a self-proclaimed photography surrealist, who takes her own photos and masterfully mixes them together to create surreal photographic art of a different kind. Carolyn moved to Maui over three years ago after ten years in New York City creating album covers for artist such as Carly Simon, Aretha Franklin, Barry Manilow and Grateful Dead.

She grew up and went to art school in Toronto, Canada. A graphic designer excelling in everything she does, Carolyn has designed websites for artists, advertising and promotion materials for businesses, and even publishes an online magazine promoting cultural diversity (www.urbanmozaik.com).

Not all nudes, Carolyn's creations all "possess impressions of nature, spirit and human form." Carolyn talks about her art openly and honestly. "Hey, I create a lot of art as a graphic designer that is just what my clients want but for me, I create from my heart, from pure divine inspiration and that makes me feel good. I don't think my art is anything close to being offensive but I understand and respect that everyone has an opinion."

KARAOKE KATZENJAMMER Unless you’re a professional singer, a natural-born performer, or just embarrassingly drunk, it would be a bit daunting to sandwich yourself onstage at any local “Karaoke” night between that chick who belts out that damn No Doubt song so eerily close to Gwen Stefani, or that big guy who falsettos flawlessly to some beautiful Hawaiian tune. Oh but there is a solution to this particular entertainment intimidation! Go visit the private karaoke rooms in Wailuku (Sing Karaoke) or Lahaina (Karaoke Maui Style). TIP: BYOB & forget about being cool, just pick that Huey Lewis song that you know and sing your heart out!

MISS THANG Saturday, at the Iao Theatre in Wailuku. The glitz, the gowns, the glamour - no, I’m not referring to the Oscars, we’re talking about the 2nd Annual Miss Ke Ala O Ka Malamalama Pageant! All your favorite drag queen glamourpusses will be there, vying for the coveted crown, declaring their dedication for world peace and the equal opportunity to wear stilettos. Beauty ain’t always only inside, honey! After-party’s at Manana Garage in Kahului.

YOUNG AT ART April 13-27, in the Schaefer Gallery, MACC. Say what you will about the youth of today, but kids have something we all lost long ago - imagination, and the inability to truly have deep regret yet. See the benefit of these blessings in “Celebrating the Artist in Us”, an exhibit created our local young talent, grades K-12.

“HEY BIG SPENDER” “The minute you walked in the joint - (BAHRUMP!) - I could tell you were a man of distinction - good lookin’, so refined -” (Whoa!

How did I pull those lyrics out of my...?!) I may not be destined for Broadway yet, but all you Shirley Maclaine-wannabes should take your chanteuse butts down to the “Sweet Charity” auditions 5pm Sunday, at the Iao Theater.

We're A Happy Family Girlhood Fantasy Flies Like A Tiny Kite ) What A Girl Wants ( "The Reluctant Debutante" (1958) gets mashed with "The Princess Diaries" (2001) to form an utterly flavorless fish-out-ofwater-coming-of-age story in director Dennie Gordon's bland romantic comedy "What A Girl Wants." Upstart "it girl" Amanda Bynes ("The Amanda Show") plays Daphne Reynolds, a 17-year-old daughter to bohemian wedding band singer Libby (Kelly Preston - "Jerry Maguire"), whose former romantic frolics with blueblood Lord Henry Dashwood (Colin Firth - "Bridget Jones's Diary") resulted in Daphne's birth.

Now on the brink of adulthood, Daphne travels to London to inform daddy, the politician Lord Henry, of her existence and expose herself to a richer social milieu. A perfect papa, a perfect British boyfriend and a perfect tour of aristocratic high society functions tie an impossibly tight knot on anything other than fantasy behavior in this glossy movie aimed at 7-year-old girls.

Ridiculous tea-sipping social functions serve as chapter headed set pieces for Daphne to quickly ripen into a well-mannered princess in spite of the malicious efforts of Lord Dashwood's cunning fiancée and resentful future stepdaughter to undermine the process. But the princess fantasy proves too demanding for Daphne's limited attention span and she soon reverts back to her 'ugly American' posture of free-spirited boho girl. How else could Daphne ever hope to retain the attention of wedding band boy toy singer Ian (Oliver James), whose professedly impoverished background fires the belly of his own insipid happiness while working a handful of demeaning jobs.

As with the most recent James Bond movie, "What A Girl Wants" uses The Clash's punk anthem "London Calling" to introduce the camera crew's arrival in England. I say camera crew because lyrics expounding, "war is declared and battle

come down" would seem more likely to come from some post punk production team member than from a movie with the social consciousness of a Bay City Rollers song. If Bynes' cookie cut character had any trace of politically minded punk ethics to her personality, then perhaps the movie would have some of headroom for juxtaposition between cynicism and sentimentality. But that would call for more Clash songs, and punk persuasion would never be allowed to hold such court in a weepy pink blanket movie like this one.

"What A Girl Wants" trips over itself to keep everyone related to Daphne as a pillar of wellintended sympathy. Papa Dashwood (Firth) was never really to blame for having Libby thrown off of his palace grounds and ejected from his life. It was his amoral right-hand man Alastair Payne (Jonathan Pryce) who surreptitiously orchestrated Libby's banishment when he discovered that she was pregnant with his master's baby. That explains why Dashwood never attempted to contact Libby over the past 17 years, and why Libby never filed for child support. Well, it doesn't really explain those things, but you're only supposed to be looking at all the pretty colors, and the lake, and the mansion and Daphne's cute smile. So, if you find yourself staring at pictures of horses after seeing this movie, you'll know exactly why.

The subtext of this simple mini-plot film is that being a self-regulated object of bubble gum pop

culture is far preferable to following any import of history or tradition. It's an apt shoe-in-glove theory that sits nicely with the idea that abandoning parents are purely retrievable objects unaccountable for their neglectful behavior and exempt from any necessary apology, which would necessitate a question of whether or not to grant forgiveness. Lord Dashwood discovers through Daphne, who now serves as the de facto irresponsible adult/parent in their relationship, that he doesn't really want to be some starched British politician. Henry would much rather be lazy and sloppy like Daphne, and if that includes cashing in his chips with Libby back in the states, all the better. Even Ian gets to come along for the ride back to the U.S. and probably play in a wedding band with Daphne, and maybe even her reunited parents. Deep down I suspect that cats with very good handwriting wrote this movie.

DIFFICULTLISTENING

BY GANNON GILMORE

MAD CADDIES "JUST ONE MORE" While Santa Barbara may be more widely known for being the land of The Ataris, these boys have probably been the crown jewel. The Mad Caddies combine everything from Punk to Ska to Reggae and, get this, Dixieland music. To date, this is their strongest release and from the looks of it, they have been taking to the bars quite a bit. Their soulful ska/reggae songs will remind you of Sublime. Their uptempo ska songs will remind you of Madness. Their Dixie influence will remind... okay maybe your grandparents will be reminded of something. Their melodic/hardcore punk songs will remind you of... every single punk band in music today, but I digress. If you're looking for a record with not even a single bad song to the list than this ones for you. -Fat Wreck Chords

RICHARD CHEESE AND LOUNGE AGAINST THE MACHINE $5 COVER

VINCE ESQUIRE

It's really too bad that The Get Up Kids decided to become a terrible band because now their only saving grace is their keyboard player’s side project. At its heart, Reggie and The Full Effect is an emo/pop band akin to The Rentals, but you are also treated to Finland's "Common Denominator" and dance tracks that come off as cheesy eighties Brit Pop. This is definitely the perfect record for people who can't leave heavily synthesized pop music alone but are a little ashamed of shopping the bargain bins. Also, it has the coolest CD packaging in the world (I'm sure many retail chains had a problem with returns due to this). Hint: It's also the title of the record. -Vagrant Records

"TUXICITY" People have the misconception that Me First and The Gimme Gimmes or Less Than Jake have the market covered in terms of covers of old pop songs. Richard Cheese kills all that and he does it without the use of a single distortion-driven guitar. As you might have guessed from the title, his game is purely doing modern pop/alternative/rock music as lounge songs. Pure genius. From listening to his voice you could almost hear him smirking through tunes like System of a Down's "Chop Suey", Britney Spears' "Crazy" and Cypress Hill's "Insane in the Brain". Believe me, you need this record. Even if it's just a novelty record. If for no other reason, you at least need to hear Eddie Van Halen's guitar work from "Hot for Teacher" on piano. Yeah, pure genius.

Okay, why is it that we are compartmentalizing emo into its own genre? Emo, Screamo... whatever. Just because some guy can't sing and decides to scream his vocals waaaayyy off key with intelligible sense of vocabulary doesn't mean you created a new form of music. Anyway, this is one of the bands that could be lumped into that genre. At first look you'd think it was a Gothic band like Bauhaus or something but these guys seem to be just dabbling in the macabre. For instance, their most radio-friendly song on this album is about psychoactive drugs and is yet the most danceable track on the album. When they turn up the juice for their harder stuff, it almost smells of eighties metal and hardcore punk at the same time, and what emo band would be complete without an acoustic ballad strewn over whiny vocals?! This is a rather muddied, overly-mixed (in terms of style) album whose highlights are fewer than its shortcomings. -Eyeball Records

THE CLASH "ESSENTIAL CLASH" If you have ever in your life said the words "Good Charlotte is sooo awesome" without the slightest hint of sarcasm then this isn't for you.

Go onto the next article in this paper or maybe turn on the TV. Maybe Benji and Joel are hosting "All Things Rock/ Zero Things Genuine". This is the stuff of legend. This is what nobody wanted until they saw how much they needed it. This is The Clash and everything is here. While there is much benefit to hunting down everything by The Clash (I admittedly have only two of their records) this is the next best thing. No other band has ever flawlessly integrated so many forms of music into their own style, all while never losing their focus, as The Clash have. They infused punk with ska and reggae and blues and hip hop and disco and remain the only band who effectively accomplished such a feat. The only band to come close these days is The Transplants. This double CD showcases their best work and if you do pick this up you should also check out "Westway to the World", a documentary film about the band from the beginning to the better end. Warts and all. Joe Strummer R.I.P. -Epic Records

ADVICEGODDESS KOZMICBREEZE

BY AMY ALKON

NOT INTO HEAVY MEDDLE I'm the single mother of a 5-year-old girl. My married friends are convinced I should be in a relationship. I'm not interested in a relationship right now. I'm satisfied with my life; I like to spend my rare free time by myself. Repeatedly telling my married friends how I feel doesn't stop them from fixing me up (like, by inviting "potential husbands" to dinner parties). Someone (I have no idea who) even keeps enrolling me in dating services! I'm requesting your opinion, since mine, obviously, means squat!

Romantic Charity Case How sweet that your friends are willing to take breaks from their extramarital affairs, knockdown drag-out fights, and couples' counseling sessions to help you understand what you've been missing. It's time you showed them exactly how grateful you are. Inform them that the next "potential husband" they seat beside you is going to get an earful - like, that your friends just want to find some dupe to pay the bills the next time you're institutionalized. And, if a dating service calls, you'll shout into the phone, "I hope I don't KILL...again!"

Eventually, your friends may come to appreciate the sacrifice you're making: Only when they retire from rescuing you from your miserable existence will they have adequate time to focus on their own miserable lives.

HOW TO BE SEEN, NOT TURD I've been seeing a woman for four months. For two months, I've been staying at her place on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights. I work the remaining nights, but in a couple weeks, I'll be off nights for good. I'd like to see her more frequently, but she's nervous about "upping the ante." How do I manage my upcoming free time so I don't make her feel smothered?

Spacer Instincts Smart retailers understand that the perception of scarcity elevates desirability. Just advertise, "SPECIAL OFFER! FIRST FIVE CUSTOMERS ONLY!" and people will run each other down to buy laminated dog poop mounted on teak. The law of supply and demand extends to relationships as well. If you want this woman to keep supplying you with her presence, don't demand any more of it than you're already getting. The idea is to make her miss you, not the long hours you were working.

As for the big white patches soon to appear on your calendar, there's no time like a couple weeks from now to pick up a seriously time-consuming hobby, such as sculpting the architectural wonders of the world by gluing together varnished moose droppings (available by the jar in Sweden). Or, as the Taschen book "Extra/Ordinary Objects" suggests, "If you don't want a whole jar, go for the dangling clip-on earrings made from them." Copy them, and expand the line to bracelets, rings, and necklaces. Not only will you be conserving your relationship and the planet, it could mark the beginning of a whole new career for you, as the Harry Winston of the excrement repurposing industry. Your motto? "Any guy can give a girl a diamond."

TAURUS: Hang in there! It's always darkest before the dawn. Explore the world of metaphysics and the occult for answers. It takes a little death to have a little more life. The weekend has you having a raging good time. The full moon has you working.

GEMINI: Asking for what you need is crucial during this period. Your social connections are working in your favor. The full moon will expand your creative abilities as well as your ability to love, play and have fun. The weekend is for home and family.

LEO: You are the divine friend of big love.

Your luck is holding out longer than you expected. The full moon will increase your strength in your neighborhood. Changes are not to be shunned. Magic is in the air and the transformation will do you some good.

VIRGO: Vows of chastity are meant to be broken during this period. It's alright for you to see yourself as the last of the red-hot lovers as long as you work on mutuality. Your prayers are extra potent. Do something nice to someone that has no niceness.

LIBRA: Harmony and joy come to you with ease. The ideal partnership may be closer in range than you think. The key to success is showing up and offering your services. The full moon in Libra will start Monday afternoon and stay till Wednesday night.

CAPRICORN: Stay home and have fun with your family. Get over your differences and discover your commonalities. Seek unconventional spiritual solutions rather than typical mainstream ideas. The full moon highlights career and acquired skills.

AQUARIUS: Look at your local environment and find out what you can do to make it better. Express your frustrations through song and poetry. The full moon highlights travel, education and foreign languages. Beware of subconscious aggression.

PISCES: Explore the unconventional and the unusual. If you are for the war, hang out with someone that's for peace. If you are for peace, hang out with someone that's for the war. The full moon makes your prayers more powerful and your libido more active.
