Smart Guys Who Know Stuff Talking about TV with Dr. Robert K. Smythe Atlanta-based TBS announced recently that it will be shoving yet another reality show down the nation’s already cluttered coax cable. Called The Real Gilligan’s Island, the show is basically Survivor meets, well, Gilligan’s Island. It will involve seven stranded castaways—a skipper, first mate, professor, movie star, you get the idea—who each way face challenges as they try to get off the island. To put this and other television trends into context, I spoke with noted arts and sciences scholar Dr. Robert K. Smythe by telephone from his North Hollywood estate. MAUITIME: Hello, Dr. Smythe. I’ve been a big fan of your work since your 1983 book I Put the Boob Back in Boob Tube. Now I’m told that it’s still in print… SMYTHE: Actually, no. I’d be surprised if libraries still carried that one. In fact, most of the research in it was later refuted by my 1991 book TV is a Four Letter Word. Those were the early years, and my sourcing methods weren’t up to, oh, let’s just say contemporary standards. I see, Doctor. Rob. Call me Rob. The ethics board still gets a little, um, squeamish when people call me “Doctor,” so you can just call me Rob. Okay, Rob. Anyway, today I wanted to talk to you about reality shows. Everyone’s doing them. A&E turned waiting at an airline terminal into a reality show called Airline. E! Network followed FX’s fictional Nip/Tuck with the reality show Dr. 90210. The Discovery Channel has two identical reality shows dealing with guys who build motorcycles, Monster Garage and American Chopper. Is this something that’s going to continue?

Is this a trend? Mark my words, in five years all of TV will be reality. The bad news is that drama’s dead. But the good news is that it’s being replaced by a little something I like to call “drama.” All kinds of shows you’ve grown up with will become reality shows. Leave it to Beaver, The Bob Newhart Show, Sanford and Son, Star Trek… What? … Matlock, Sportscenter—oh wait, that’s already a reality show called Dream Job— Larry King Live… Hold on a sec, Rob. How can Star Trek be a reality show? Well, some shows will, naturally, have to be a little more selective than others in locating participants— But it took place in outer space, with aliens and robots and space ships that traveled faster than the speed of light. Yes… We don’t have any of those things! It was science fiction! None of those things on that show—except maybe Captain Kirk getting tail each week— could actually happen. I’m afraid I don’t understand. The show was on television for three seasons… Doc—I mean, Rob—it wasn’t real. [45-second pause] I knew that. Look, just because a man has credentials that have been questioned by three of the five sanctioning authorities doesn’t mean he’s an idiot. No, what you say makes perfect sense. You see, if TV has taught us nothing else, it’s that reality is fake. If you want reality, you have to go to fantasy. I’m sorry, but that makes no sense. Look, I don’t have time to explain highbrow academic stuff to you. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got to go watch the E! True Hollywood Story. That show is so fake… MTW

ehbrah@mauitime.com I just wanted to thank you for pretty much sucking me dry. No, really, it was my pleasure. You’re quite good, I have to admit. It was all so innocent at first—the quiet dinner, the deep-heartfelt talk about how your life really wasn’t going so well. You were friendly, tender and oh, so incredibly manipulative. I’m still amazed at how fast I went from your dear friend to your dearer bank account. At first I just thought I was being paranoid. But no, that inner voice in my head was my brain, telling me you were milking me like a prize heifer. Damn, you had me good. I’d never met an actual succubus before you, so naturally, I was a real catch. I even thought of marrying you! Shows you how smart I am, and how good you are at choosing your prey. Thinking of what happened to me makes me queasy, but when I get to thinking about the fact that you’ve undoubtedly got your claws into some new fool, then I get sick.

MEDIAWATCH

A Hard Day of Reporting At The Westin Maui Resort & Spa media reception

Just another day at the office “Exclusively for our media friends, we’re extending this invitation for you to experience all the opulence and pampering of our brand new $5 million ‘Spa at The Westin Maui’—complete with massage and body treatments!” The invite also requested that we come “enjoy pupus, cocktails, mini-manicures and massages and the ambience of The Westin Maui at sunset.” Who were we to say no? Realizing the dire importance of investigating a new spa and its treatments in the elite Kaanapali Beach resort, we quickly broke away from the high-pressure environment of our newsroom, mid-production. The press release said the resort was “also celebrating the 5th Anniversary of The Westin Heavenly Bed and its unparalleled sleeping luxury.” It looked like they needed our help. When we arrived in the designated reception area, the Director of Sales and Marketing, Brian Lynx, greeted us enthusiastically and with much aloha. Lynx led us up to a spectacular, oceanview suite on the seventh floor. As soon as we walked in, an in-room bartender handed us each a glass of champagne. We announced ourselves to the hospitable Public Relations Manager, Bridgette Okamoto, who then gave us our plastic laminated nametags. We were then promptly introduced to the other media people: Shannon Wianecki and Diane of Maui No Ka Oi, Brian Berusch of Travel Weekly, Jeff Sharpley of Zento, travel agent Camie Foster and freelance writers Sherri Strausfogel and Karee Carlucci. Then we met the resort’s cordial General Manager,

Craig Anderson, and the accommodating Director of Rooms, Vivian Phan. Then Lynx wanted to show us The Bed. “What’s the big deal about The Bed, anyway?” we asked. With raised eyebrows and a knowing twinkle in his eye, Lynx patiently explained that The Bed was the Westin’s signature “Heavenly Bed” that featured an all-white, 10-layers of cushiony goodness—your choice of 230 or 300 thread count— with a fluffy duvet and five pillows. The hotel had been doing an all-day promotion in the same suite, in which guests were given a chance to win their very own Heavenly Bed if they could successfully drop a mini-lavender mist from the

suite’s lanai onto a display model set up in the moat surrounding the hotel on the ground floor. Lynx demanded that we experience the bed for ourselves. We nodded in polite agreement. Then we were handed miniature lavender misters—two each. Holding our champagne glasses in one hand, each of us media-type people attempted to toss and land our misters on The Bed some seven floors below. One by one, we stepped up to the railing, aimed and repeatedly missed our target. Then Berusch succeeded. Sharpley got it, too. Russo made it on her second try. Since there was only one bed to give away, a drawing would determine the final outcome. “It sure would beat my dusty old futon!” Berusch said, as we waited to see who would win the coveted Bed. Phan had the honor of pulling the names out of the bag. With the champagne still bubbling in our heads, she called out “Jeff!” of Vento. While we congratulated him on the fabulous score, he replied, “I already have a great bed.” He had the option of giving it up but only said he would think about it. Ah, the whims of the Media! The group then headed down to The Mezzanine, an area outside the newly renovated Spa. While chatting in the elevator, Phan offered us accommodations for the evening. Remembering Lynx’s demand that we experience the Heavenly Bed for ourselves, along with the fact that we had early morning Spa treatments the next day, we accepted dutifully. The other media types converged upon the reception, where another bartender offered us cocktails. A pupu table featured Surfing Goat Cheese, crème brulee and fresh berries. At another table, a hotel chef grilled up hot appetizers that were then passed around by a banquet waiter. While we nibbled grilled scallop and teriyaki beef, sipped white wine and casually chatted with Anderson and laughed with Lynx, the rest of the media folks took turns getting hand massages with lavender body butter and 15minute shoulder rubs in the chair. All for the love of reporting! Amen. MTW

LC Watch

The Friendly Department There’s no question that minor decoy stings conducted by your Maui County Department of Liquor Control can be rough affairs for all concerned. Out of nowhere, plainclothes police and LC officers swoop down on bartenders and cashiers, speaking of “violations” and “criminal matters.” Case in point was the Feb. 19, 2004 minor decoy sting on the Friendly Market Center, located in Kaunakakai on Molokai. At first, the sting went as usual, with the minor successfully buying a six-pack of Bud from a cashier who carded him, but didn’t notice the “Under 21” red stripe on his driver’s license. But then things got tense when an LC officer tried to retrieve the marked $20 used in the sting. “At the scene we found the atmosphere to be hostile towards the minor decoy team,” reported LC Officer Pedro Gapero. “CORPUZ consulted with another cashier who seemed to be very angry at our presence. This cashier told CORPUZ, ‘Don’t open your draw [sic], only our manager can authorize that!’ I then informed CORPUZ that failure to comply with our request could result in another violation.” Store manager Judith Egusa, who ultimately returned the LC’s marked Andy Jackson, didn’t like the use of the word “hostile.” “We weren’t hostile,” she told the Adjudication Board during their Sept. 2 hearing. “It’s a matter of interpretation.” Egusa told the Board she heard the commotion and rushed into the store. “A guy flashed something,” Egusa said. “He said ‘Get me that $20 in the register!’” Egusa said she asked what was going on. “Then he got really angry and said he could arrest me,” Egusa said. That’s when she said he could have the $20. The Board ultimately fined the Friendly Market Center $2,000, but clearly, the whole affair really bothered Board member—and Molokai resident and Friendly Market Center shopper—John Urauchi. “Molokai is known as the Friendly Island,” he said, to a few laughs. “I’m glad you were smiling when you said that,” quipped Board Chairman Shigeto “Mustard” Murayama, to a few more laughs. Even LC Director Franklyn Silva got into the act. “The Department [of Liquor Control] is also known as the friendly department,” he said. That got the most laughs of all.

NEWSOFTHEWEIRD POWER NAPS? Business prospects are improving for Christopher Lindhoist and Arshad Chowdhury, who recently opened their Metronaps lounge on the 24th floor of New York City’s Empire State Building and whose clients pay $14 to relieve stress by dozing off for 20 minutes in private, specially made, reclining chair-pods with an array of vibrations and sounds to drown out the hubbub of the city. Chowdhury said he studied the science of napping at CarnegieMellon University and found a “tremendous amount of research” showing the rejuvenative value of the short “power nap,” which he said improves memory, mood and learning. The Metronaps chair-pods (cost: $8,000) are being separately sold to companies overseas and may soon appear in airport lounges.

Two men and a woman, described in a Cape Times (Cape Town, South Africa) story as loan sharks, brought the corpse of Thozamile Patrick Apolis in a wheelchair into an FNB Provincial bank in June in an attempt to withdraw his pension—signing for it by “helping” Apolis move his hand across the paper—but a skeptical customer, who kept demanding that bank officials check for a pulse, scared off the three, who left the body behind.

Going against the grain of recent court decisions, the federal appeals court in New York ruled in August, 2-1, that when a man died of “autoerotic asphyxiation” (normally, strangling oneself almost to the point of passing out as a way of enhancing pleasure during masturbation, but in some cases, going too far), it was an “accident” rather

than a self-inflicted injury. Thus, mom Shirley Critchlow is entitled to death benefits under her son Michael’s life insurance policy. She would not have been for a self-inflicted injury.

UNCLEAR ON THE CONCEPT According to a police report in the Brainerd (Minn.) Dispatch, in August, thieves had broken into the First Integrity Bank on Excelsior Road in Baxter, Minn., but then used a hammer on a common wall in order to break into the adjacent Lakes Area Eyecare store and make off with numerous pairs of sunglasses.

AHH, THE ARTS German filmmaker (Mr.) Rosa von Praunheim told reporters in July that he will finish by December his movie based on notorious convicted cannibal Armin Meiwes, who is serving eight years in prison following his January conviction for the apparently consensual murder and consumption of a man. “Your Heart in My Brain” (working title) was funded in part by a government film foundation in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia and begins with Meiwes being confronted in prison by his victim’s head, which, according to a Reuters report, encourages Meiwes to take pride in what he has done and to move on to more killing.

PEOPLE DIFFERENT FROM US In a June profile of Britain’s Prince Charles, a columnist for The Guardian newspaper describes, as an example of his increasing isolation from the mainstream of under-age-65 British society, his recent encouragement of people to avoid college and accept learning vocational skills and his enthusiastic promotion of the Gerson Therapy, a widely discredited treatment for cancer patients diagnosed as terminally ill. Among the tenets of the Gerson regimen— which costs $15,000 for three weeks: Drinking 20 pounds of liquified fruit and vegetables per day and taking daily coffee enemas. MTW

International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). Of course, doing so would have required us to submit a report to the Human Rights Committee documenting our progress in guaranteeing the basic rights for U.S. citizens. I guess our government doesn’t want to do that. Some people argue that the United Nations has no role in our daily affairs. Of course, it was former U.S. First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt who spearheaded the global movement for human rights by chairing the UN Commission on Human Rights. That committee ended up drafting the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which guaranteed all people’s basic rights. The declaration inspired the creation of twin covenants focusing on civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights. The UN then created two committees to focus on the realization of these rights. Amazingly enough, today’s 18member committee even includes an American. These international organizations have a simple function: They allow for a review of the policies and laws that impact a given government’s citizens. It begins with the Human Rights Committee receiving a country’s report. That begins the review process.

Oh, the ties that bind! Other nations have done this, but not the U.S. Our government owes it to us. After all, the Human Rights Committee doesn’t focus on U.S. actions anywhere in the world except within our borders. The first step is making citizens aware of our rights in domestic and international law. When enough people are aware and demand our government to author the report, we must work to participate in the drafting and reporting process. When the U.S. completes the report, we need to have community dialogues to gauge the status of our civil and political rights.

Then the actual Human Rights Committee hearing should be aired on network television. At the very least, C-SPAN should broadcast the six-hour-exchange between our government representatives and the committee. When the concluding observations are issued, we can then take these suggestions as guidelines for actions in our community. Most importantly, when the next report is due, we must be more diligent in making sure our government isn’t so tardy. We keep talking about setting an example of liberty to the world. Isn’t it time we actually began to do it? MTW

President George W. Bush proclaimed very proudly at the Republican National Convention that, “This century will be the liberty century.” He also said America “keeps our word.” Well, our government isn’t off to a good start—either showing the way to democracy around the world or in keeping its word to its own citizens. Over the last few weeks, there have been significant historical events and dates that demand our attention as a nation. Most people would agree that the Republican Convention in New York City and the third commemoration of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon focused on the themes of liberty and freedom. But there was a very significant date between those nation-boosting bookends that received very little attention and even less action. That date is Sept. 7. Probably remembered by more Americans as the birth date of the sports cable channel ESPN, the day is actually crucial to Americans’ civil liberties and fundamental freedoms.

I love winning, but the fun is the most important thing!” Naish, who has traveled all over the world to sail, surf and kite in the most incredible places, loves coming back to Maui. “In no other sport in the world, can you jump and fly higher and longer,” Naish said. “It’s like windsurfing, snowboarding, surfing and paragliding combined. We stay in the air six-seven-eight-nine seconds and make the most incredible maneuvers! It’s just so much fun!” This weekend it’s not just fun, there’s also a prize purse total of $26,000! In order to encourage riders to try risky moves that are not normally seen in competitions, falls do not count against the riders, so be prepared for some serious stuff. As the name implies, “Big Air” is the buzz and the world’s best kiteboarders will impress spectators and judges with jumps at aweinspiring heights and distance. Those combined with the most impressive tricks and wave maneuvers essentially make up two heats in one and surely an event worthwhile to watch. Natural ramps added to our North Shore waves will launch competitors up to some 60 feet into the air. Last year’s “hangtime” winner, Maui resident Marcus “Flash” Austin was airborne for 7.29 seconds—the world record lies in the double digits and he is keen to challenge it! MTW

Little Guantánamo Treating marchers like enemy combatants At first the enemy is foreign, alien, incomprehensible: To post-9/11 America, a nation founded by fundamentalist Calvinists, they were Afghans, Iraqis, Muslims in general. We locked them into places like Abu Ghraib and Guantánamo Bay and we threw away the key. Denied access to a lawyer, never charged with a crime, their names and locations hidden from family and the media, dismal treatment—including torture—was inevitable. In a classic step in the devolution from democracy to police state, we’ve run out of foreigners to bomb and imprison. Our rulers have been forced to look inward, among the previously protected class of United States

prompting a local judge to fine the city for violating a New York rule that requires charging suspects within 24 hours or releasing them. “The conditions of my arrest were pretty appalling,” says Maria Cincotta, a 26-year-old New York teacher who was arrested on Tuesday night of the convention week near Union Square. “We were given no order to disperse. Had I been asked to leave, I would have in a second.” City officials converted a disused bus depot on the Hudson River’s Pier 57 into what detainees nicknamed “Little Guantánamo” for its outdoor setting and maze of pens divided by chain-link fencing. Numerous arrest victims reported being denied food and water or access to an attorney or a phone.

REPUBLICANS ARE MAKING A STARTLINGLY ORWELLIAN DEFENSE: BUSH & CO. NEVER SAID WHAT WE HEARD THEM SAY. passport holders, for new scapegoats. Like their brethren at the naval base in Cuba, these Americans are being deprived of their most basic human rights. They are people who dare to pick up a sign and march against such Bush Administration policies as the war against Iraq. Media accounts of massive protests against the Republican National Convention—500,000 people, ranging from leftists to pacifists to mainstream Democrats—focused on attacks on the police and GOP delegates. “The most damaging act of violence, in fact, appeared to occur against a police officer, who was kicked as he lay on the ground,” reported The New York Times. “In addition, there were the demonstrators who consistently and at times aggressively badgered delegates, telling them in unprintable words that they ought to leave Manhattan posthaste.” Intentionally ignored and on a vast scale was the shameful experience of marchers arrested by a brutal NYPD between Aug. 27 and Sept. 2. Recognizing that political demonstrations are a fact of life in New York, police and marchers used to work together to ensure that peace prevailed. If you got arrested, you were given a “desk appearance ticket” and released on one’s personal recognizance after a few hours. Beginning with a mass roundup of bicyclists participating in their monthly Critical Mass ride to encourage urban biking on the Friday before the convention, New York police arrested anyone they could get their hands on. They beat people who weren’t resisting arrest, broke out their teeth, destroyed their personal property and confined them incommunicado under atrocious conditions for days at a time,

Children, some who happened to be walking down the street when the cops arrested everyone present, were locked up for several days. Police refused to tell their frantic parents where they were. Adding to the misery was a resinous layer of gasoline and toxic cleansers coating the floor. “Everybody was laying in filth,” said Cincotta. “Nobody was sleeping. A lot of people were screaming in agony.” The Times reports that “scores” of RNC detainees contracted mysterious rashes and lesions. Prisoners were shuttled between Pier 57 and the city’s central holding jail in similarly dismal conditions. Wendy Stefanelli, a 35-yearold TV hair stylist, spent several hours locked in a hot bus—the weather was humid with temperature in the high 80s—with a man whose colostomy bag had burst. “He was throwing up all over the back of the bus,” she said. “The entire bus begged the officers present to please get medical attention to this man. They completely ignored us.” “My experience wasn’t nearly as bad as other folks’,” says Jon Goldberg, 26, of Brooklyn. “There were people roughed up who were not resisting arrest. I saw one person with bruising on his head; he said a cop had kneeled on his head. A lot of people had their cameras destroyed. One had his photos deleted except for one, a new image of a police officer’s boots and his hand protruding toward the lens—showing ‘the finger.’” Few of these Americans broke any law. Many were hapless pedestrians, not even part of a political demonstration. Go ahead, call them whiners or hippies or commies or whatever retro-Nixon-era moniker you prefer. That’s what your government wants you to do, because they’re fresh out of Muslims to throw into prison. Someday they’ll be fresh out of liberal demonstrators, too. MTW

Among Sholom Schusterman is wrapping Tefillin around my heavily tattooed arm. Tefillin is a Jewish thing—two long black straps with two black boxes attached. The straps tie tightly around your arm and one box goes on your forehead and the other on your arm. Jewish men wrap the Tefillin tightly around their arms and pray. Some Jews do this almost every day, but many others do not. Sometimes when they wrap the tefillin straps, they wear tallit, which is a blue and white prayer shawl. It makes the men look very holy and religious. When you see Jewish men wrapping Tefillin, you are seeing very Jewish Jews. “I came to Maui for Jewish outreach,” says Sholom. “Creating an awareness of torah, opening spiritual doors for people. There was a need for this in Maui. There was no orthodox shul (synagogue), no mikvah (ritual bath). We wanted, with the Maui Mitzvah Center, to bring people together as a community of Jews. “I had been coming back and forth from here for eight

“Thank you for calling the Maui Mitzvah Center. We are currently out doing mitzvahs.” Sholom received his rabbinical training at a yeshiva in Israel. When he was in Israel, the Gulf War broke out. The bombs started falling on Sholoms’ birthday. “It ruined my party,” he quips. He grew up in Los Angeles in a large family. He has six brothers, all of whom are rabbis. “My family was famous for making hot mustard,” says Sholom, smiling. His wife Danit was born in Israel and grew up in South Africa, in Johannesburg. She can speak Afrikaans and has a lilt to her Brooklynese. Sometimes she calls Sholom “Rebs” and sometimes they finish each other’s sentences. On their refrigerator are photographs, snapshots of their lives: Danit with relatives in Brooklyn, Sholom in Israel, Danit and Sholom in Iao Valley. The Shustermans live in a very green, jungle-like property in Waiehu. They share the property with a number of people

The world of the Schustermans is that of constant and profound spiritual reiteration. They view daily occurrences as willed by God. years, sometimes on my own, sometimes with yeshivot (religious students) from other parts of the world, helping with Jewish education, mitzvahs, like tefillin, distributing muzuzot (a tiny case hung next to the door in religious households) and Jewish books.” Shalom and his wife Danit are Chabadniks, which means they are orthodox Jews. Sholom wears a black suit and kippah most of the time. His wife Danit wears long dresses and keeps her hair covered. When Chabad couples get married, some of them choose to be slichim, which means that they choose to go out and live in some distant outposts—like Hawaii—and dedicate their lives to helping Jews live Jewish lives. Often they are the only observant family in town and the lifestyle is taxing. They are like missionaries, but don’t seek converts. “We came here to help do mitzvot and educational outreach missions,” Sholom tells me. “They way I see it, my job here, if I am doing it right, is to inspire people. That’s it. To inspire other Jews to live their lives as Jews, to take advantage of the rich things the torah offers.” On their answering machine Danit’s voice announces,

including a man called “Cowboy.” To get there you have to take a long windy road up a hill. On the Schustermans’ mailbox is a paper plate with the word “Shalom!” written in black sharpie pen. Their home is spare and slightly cluttered, with hundreds of religious books and spare kippot strewn about. This is a Jewish house, with Jewish stuff. We walk the property; they want to build a sukkah, “over there, where it’s flat.” Sholom says, surveying. “We’re looking for a few strong Jews,” adds Danit, flexing her bicep. I am writing this on their computer. As I do, instant messages pop up sporadically.

BatHaddassah: Shalom! TzviLippen77:gtg, but have a good shabbos! And so forth. The world of the Schustermans is that of constant and profound spiritual reiteration. They view daily occurrences as willed by God. In this, they receive continuous confirmation of their beliefs. Theirs is a world were shabbos is sacred and respected.

The phone rings on a Friday night. “Who is that?” asks Sholom, incredulous. “Nobody in New York,” Danit answers confidently. No one in their world would desecrate the Sabbath by calling them at that time. When Sholom and I have conversations, he leans way back and quietly listens to my point. He puts his hands on his belly, looking toward the ceiling, slowly nodding in a way one does who is accustomed to consideration, debate, deliberation. Sometimes he looks me right in the eyes, sometimes his gaze darts frantically around the room. Sometimes he puts his hands behind his head, closes his eyes and listens quietly and in doing so, pushes the black felt kippah down his forehead, just above his glasses. Doing this surprises me, for when I look at him again, it appears as if his forehead has shrunk. Sometimes he wears a t-shirt with a cartoon character on it, sometimes he dons the Lubavitch uniform of a long black jacket, black hat and white shirt. Whenever I go to their house, they feed me and we talk. The Schustermans are classic New York City Jews: Seltzer water, matzoh ball soup, with Danit fretting about the quality and quantity of the food.

Should I make the eggplant? Do you have enough? We need more challah bread. After dinner one night, the house quiets down so the only sound is my typing. Sholom studies, and the quiet, guttural whispers of his Hebrew occasionally puncture the air. There is this element of timelessness in this atmosphere, for these are the things Jews have simply done for thousands of years. The Schustermans wear their Jewishness proudly and outwardly. Theirs is a Judaism that is unabashed and unashamed of its ritualistic impulses, even in an increasingly secular society. Of the Schustermans’ religious worldview, there can be no doubt. Being Jewish is it. They simply know no other way to be. I peruse Sholom’s groaning bookshelf. Some of the books are old, some new. Some, clearly, have been looked at and handled often. The Hebrew writing is dulled, the spines brittle with age. For Sholom, books are deeply personal, holy and sacred things that must be treasured. I pick one book from the text and open it to a random page. Not a word of English on any of its 900 pages. It is a large, heavy and preciously brittle thing, the cover on the verge of falling off. Inside is tiny Hebrew script, elegant and important-looking. The pages are yellowed and smell like old

Days later, Sholom and I were strolling through the Queen Ka’ahumanu Center. Sholom had brought flyers he wanted to distribute for his upcoming High Holiday services. We encounter the Israeli kiosk workers. Kiosks are something of an Israeli cottage industry. “There are about, I’d say, eight to 10,000 Israelis who come here [to the United States] every year to work mall kiosks,” says Sherach Cohen. He should know, since he once managed four kiosks in upstate New York with his cousins. “Don’t laugh,” he says. “A good sales person can clear over $10,000 during the Christmas season. Take me for example. I had finished the army and had come to see some family in Miami. I had $1 in my pocket. I met some friends who were running kiosks in Connecticut. We were selling head massagers—not even the new, electric kind, like, we were pushing the copper ones. In the three months I was working there, I made $6,000.” With his curly blond locks and blue eyes, Sherach looks more surfer dude than Israeli. It’s not hard to imagine bored housewives suddenly needing copper head massagers and making a trip to the mall. “It all has to do with mindsets,” he says. “We in Israel have that very Middle Eastern marketplace way of thinking of things. We are used to the bazaar, buying fruits and vegetables and arguing for the price, Americans don’t do that. Americans aren’t shrewd like that. They think in terms of ‘I don’t want to miss this,’ whereas we think ‘How can I get the best price?’” As Sherach is talking, another kiosk worker, armed with a hot pink “bubble gun” walks by. Sherach explains that he is going to blow bubbles from the second floor balcony to attract attention to his kiosk, which sells the guns. Earlier that day, he was told not to blow the bubbles from his kiosk, so he is simply going to do it from another location. This is so Israeli. From birth, Israelis are taught to make do

wood. People like Sholom memorize books like these and live their lives accordingly. Books, maps and texts construct the mental geography that guides both of our lives. He picks one out and opens it to the front page. “This Shabbos is the same day as the birthday of Baal Shem Tov,” he says, tenderly running his fingers over the text, “the founder of the Hasidic movement.” Sholom has a lot of these kinds of facts and dates in his brain. He says them in a way one who is used to retrieving and reciting precise information. This is because much of Sholoms’ life is based upon the memorization and interpretation of ancient text. Jews are interpreters. We are taught that the written word is holy and must be respected. Jewish culture revolves around this dictum. In times passed, those who were valued were those who studied, and it was not unusual to see Jews scurrying home with dozens of books stacked high, awkwardly wobbling and on the verge of falling. With the progression of time, some Jews lost their beards and kippot and left the shetl for the big city. The books were still there, but they’d changed. Instead of torah, kabbalah and Talmud, Jews studied Marxism, mathematics and economics. Instead of aspiring to be a rabbi or cantor, Jews sought out to make their name in the secular world of doctors, lawyers and scientists. Sholom and Danit Schusterman still exist in the world of the book-toting Jew. They are a connection to a time and place of a simple and powerful connection to ideas. Sometimes I forget who they are. I ask them out for a beer, or try to shake Danit’s hand. Sometimes I forget about the world they come from and why they don’t do the same stuff I do. Sometimes Sholom just gets up, walks over and prays towards Jerusalem, shifting his weight from side to side. While doing this, he occasionally chants Hebrew melodies. I always find these songs so sad, so mournful. He is almost drowned out by the sound of crickets and mosquitoes outside. Here I realize how far the Schustermans are from everything it is that they know and love: Their families, their friends and their city. No one on Maui speaks Yiddish. There are no kosher butcher shops here. No one here laughs at Jackie Mason or munches on Kosher burgers at Kosher Delight. No one reads the Daily Forward or eats Bagels, lox and gelfelte fish. Great as this sacrifice may be, there is continuity here and the Schustermans’ isolation fits into context with thousands of years of Jewish history. What, after all, are we Jews if we aren’t away from home?

Israelis, especially women, are notoriously tough. She comes from Haifa, an idyllic northern Israeli seaside city that is renowned for the prodigious amount of beautiful women that live there. In her spare time, she studies classical music. “Baroque,” she says. “Not opera. I hate opera.” She was a soloist in the Israeli army. “But if I had the chance to do it again,” she says, “I would be a fighter. I would serve in a combat unit.” The army is important to her. “It’s like a country inside a country. You become an adult in the army. You are a child before that.” After the army, she got an unsatisfying job in an administrative position in the diamond district of Tel-Aviv. “I wanted to be a singer,” she says. “A singer is what I am, but it is difficult to make this… It is difficult to make this in Israel. Everyone is artist.”

“It’s puzzles, see,” he beams proudly, showing me a box of what he will sell. “Kids put them together and paint them.” There are dangling mobiles of little helicopters, dinosaurs and strangely, a volcano that will—Sherach says—“steam and smoke. “It brings attention,” he says. “People get curious with stuff like that.” Sure enough, kids come up to the kiosk. He ends up selling three units before his kiosk actually opens. “The concept is classic,” he says. “Simple product, cheap location and an incentive to sell. In Israel, we hear of the money you make working booths in American malls. We figure it in travel time: For two months working in America gets you 10 months in South America, three months gets you 20 months in India. It’s a good deal for us in that dollars are stronger than [Israeli] shekels. When we travel on shekels, it is expensive for us. When we work in America, we can travel for longer. I would say that 90 percent of all money made by Israelis in kiosks is spent in Third World countries. It’s like Israeli foreign aid.”

It’s true that Israel has a disproportionate number of artists. Singers, writers, photographers, violinists, you name it. This is reflective of Jews’ participation in the arts and humanities in general. Russia, Iran, Yemen, Argentina and Iraq, to some extent, lost many of their best and brightest scholars after Israel won her independence. The result of this is a highly creative, pragmatic society. It is perhaps the only nation in the world where former members of the Russian conservatory now sweep streets. “I am Israeli,” says Efrat, laughing and taking a pull from her cigarette. “To my soul, I am Israeli. I want to make family there, get married. The situation with us is hard. Not so much with the Arabs, but in our own society. We can’t trust our leaders. We can’t trust [the Arabs’] leaders. What a mess.” Like most cosmopolitan Israeli young people, Efrat voted Labor, the more liberal of the Israeli political parties. “But not anymore,” she says. “They are just talking. Nobody to trust.” She was a peacenik, but not anymore. All that changed the day “I hear that Arafat is paying the families of shahids [suicide bombers],” she remembers. “I stop thinking we can make something [peaceful] with them. “I understand them in some way. They are like Jews. Nobody will accept them. [The Palestinians] are like… leftovers from many other societies. Jordan, Egypt, Syria.

You have to disconnect from the reality of Israel to stay sane. When I am here, I don’t open [turn on] the television. Many Jews find it hard to visit Israel, because we are so hardcore. So intense… you see it’s different for us. We face the reality everyday.” I went home that night and “opened” the radio. Sixteen people had been killed on a bus in the Israeli suburb of Be’er Sheva.

with what they have—that success requires creativity and innovation, even if it means bending the rules a bit. I look down at one of the kiosks, which sells head massagers. The girl, armed with an obscene-looking copper wire contraption, approaches passersby. “Come, I vant to show you some-sing,” she says. “You look.” And it works, she shows them, and they buy. Confident, to the point, no bullshit. All so very Israeli. “Look it’s a numbers game,” says Sherach. “Think about it, you’re here 16 hours a day, open to close. You approach, what, 5,000 people in that time, you’re going to sell a lot of merchandise.” For his part, Sherach has just started his own booth. It’s called Puzzland, and it’s on the mall’s second floor near the food court. It has just been set up and Sherach is putting the final touches on his business.

Efrat came to Maui to work as a kiosk worker, selling lotions and cosmetics from the Dead Sea. “It’s like the army,” she says, exasperated. “Working 16 hours a day.”

Yariv Golan is a retail manager whom I met originally at a barbeque at his home. He served in a special forces combat unit—Sayaret Mak’tal—in Ramallah. “It’s like a shark attack,” he explains to me. “Now, a shark attack is terrible, a tragedy, but do you move away from Maui because of a shark attack? For us, it is the reality of Israel.” What about the security fence? “It doesn’t matter about a fence, or wall, or gate or whatever,” he says. “It matters what’s inside the fence. Israel must grow, demographically, like any other society. It is impossible to make a wall around a country. Jews can’t simply wall themselves off from the Arabs. It may be a good solution for us, for now, for the next 40 or 50 years, but after that…” Yariv shrugs and frowns. “For us the problem is not so much Arabs, but the fact that Israel is held to different standards,” he says. “We are both Western and Middle Eastern. We hold ourselves to Western standards of morality and ethics, but we are in a very Middle Eastern kind of fight. Israel’s problem is that it is a nation of Jews and we Jews tend to over-intellectualize matters in a situation were violence is impulsive and spontaneous. “Let me give you an example, Israel is the only society in the region that will invent ingenious methods of defending itself, then questioning those same methods. Israel has this kind of hesitation and self-criticism that both make it both a wonderful place and a dangerous place. “Maui is good for Israelis. Israel is very a hardcore place and Israelis are very hardcore people. In Israel everything is what! hey!”—here he begins waving his arms wildly—“Here is hang loose. Israelis need a little of that.” Hang loose, bro. “I know I will return to Israel, I want to marry a Jewish girl, raise my children in Israel,” says Yariv. “I like the honesty, the impulsiveness of Israel. I want my child to understand about Israel and what it means to us, but to also see other places in the world. I didn’t leave because of any problems, you know, about the intifada. I left for an opportunity for me, to start a business. I go back each year, to Haifa. “We have our own problems in Israel besides the Palestinians. Everyone always thinks Israel is about the Palestinians. We also have a problem with very religious Jewish people causing some shit. Once, in the army we had to go arrest some kind of, you know, terrorist, someone who needed to be arrested. We were driving through a religious neighborhood in Jerusalem and they were throwing rocks at us because we were driving on Shabbos! To arrest someone who was killing Jews and they were mad at us! This is our situation. “Like I said before, Maui is good for us. We have been accepted very good here, no problems, never. You know, I tell you something. In my time here I have met many, many Israelis, 200, 250 Israelis maybe. All are quality people, you know why?” I say no. “Because they learn to relax here,” he says. “Surf, kiteboard, have barbecue. I think that after Israel, they see the other side of life and they become very chill, very mellow. This is a place that offers joy and Israelis, everyone really, recognizes that.”

Or you’ve just finished a long shift slinging food for the tourists. By the time 2 a.m. rolls around, you’re famished. There are a few scattered fast food restaurants that serve late-night menus in South or Central Maui.

Island Tacos Currently located in the parking lot behind Paradice Bluz on Luakini St. in Lahaina but will soon open at the kiosk next to the club on Front St. The stand is open from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. every night and will also be open daily from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the new kiosk location. Tacos are $4 each, sodas are $1. A little before 10 p.m., Lakman lights the tiki torches. He adjusts the small radio playing island hits in the tree nearby and sets up the cart with containers of condiments. He fires up the wood-burning stove and puts bottles of salsa and paper towels on each of the two picnic tables. He then stirs the meat as the oven quickly heats up. Kareem is the first to arrive, just off work from Cheeseburger in Paradise. He plays catch with Haze, Lakman’s friendly spotted dog, and waits patiently for him to finish setting up. A few minutes later, a couple of guys walk up and order two tacos. Lakman goes through the drill for each one: Heat the tortilla on the grill for a minute, line the dish with wax paper; grab the tortilla with tongs, load it up with pulled pork, chicken or fish; top with salsa, black beans, thinly sliced onions, shredded cabbage and cheese, jalapenos—according to customer specifications. Repeat. Soon after, an attractive couple arrives with their two poodles, which promptly make friends with Haze. The couple would like chicken tacos—no onions or salsa, please. Then a blonde girl on a bike and another guy in a tank top stop by, grab a soda out of the cooler and talk to Lakman. A well-known local musician, obviously hungry after performing at a restaurant all night, orders a fish taco—everything on it—and a soda. He asks Lakman about the taco stand’s hours of operation. Smiling, Lakman tells him about the upcoming, new kiosk location. A Hispanic guy and a club bouncer

I’ve been working for the Maui Food Bank for three years. As the Resource Coordinator, I educate community groups about what we do. Many don’t realize just how many hungry people we have right here in Maui County. We don’t just serve the homeless—we work with disabled, seniors, youth, the working poor, serving more than 9,000 people a month. The way it works is this: We warehouse large quantities of food and distribute it to agencies with food programs—homeless shelters, soup kitchen, low income daycare centers and more. Twice a month, on Mondays from 1-4 p.m., we also open our warehouse to the community, providing food boxes for anyone who needs them. Because some people have difficulty with transportation, we also take food to Lahaina on the third Saturday of every month. If they can’t come to us, we take food to them. I first worked for the food bank back in 1988 when it was Maui Catholic Charities. Then I left and went into the corporate world, only to find that it wasn’t for me. I wanted to help people directly, to make a difference right here in my own backyard. When I saw a job open at the Food Bank, I thought, “Geez, I’m right back where I started.” And it is right where I want to be. All of the food we get is donated from local grocery vendors, food drives and people who give from their pantries—and from the generosity of their hearts. More people contribute food to us around the holidays, but hunger knows no seasons. Right now we are in a low period for donations. We depend on volunteers to put these food boxes together, and are always looking for food donations or volunteers to help us in any way they can. I enjoy what I do because I’m helping people. Just the other day, a child told me he couldn’t go to school because his mother couldn’t afford to give him lunch money. To see his face as he walked away with a packet of cookies from his food box—it was unbelievable. For more information on the Maui Food Bank, call 877-4357, or visit 330 Hoohana in Kahului. MTW

Vá Mariza! Saturday, 7:30 p.m. at the Castle Theater, MACC [MUSIC] In Portugal, fado is the music of emotion. And Mariza has been proclaimed The Best Voice of that emotion, from the highest highs to the lowest lows. Fado is a dramatic genre, and can be characterized by an almost furtive yearning, an underlying sadness and sensuality, much like blues, tango or flamenco,. “They all stand on emotions,” says Mariza. “Fado is an emotional kind of music full of passion, sorrow, jealousy, grief, and often satire.” Fado music, therefore, is at the heart of Portugal—said to be the song of taverns, brothels, street corners and Lisbon’s working class of the early 20th century. Though today, fado is not the most popular music of Portugal it once was, a new generation of musicians are bringing it to light. Often compared to Portugal’s Fadista legend Amalia Rodrigues, Mariza is thought to successfully merge those same fado traditions, yet with a modern freshness. Tickets: $28, $18, $10, 1/2 price for kids 12 & under. Food & beverages available starting at 5:30 p.m. Call 242-7469. [SAMANTHA CAMPOS]

ThIS WEEK’S PICKS by Samantha Campos

Banned Books Week Beginning Saturday at the Wailuku Public Libraray Americans love to talk about freedom, liberty, rights, etc. Yet today, 215 years after the Founders enshrined the freedom of speech in our national constitution, some Americans still fear words. Last year, the American Library Association recorded 458 formal complaints asking that various schools or libraries remove books from shelves. Some of the more popular volumes mentioned were John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men (language), Linda de Haan’s King and King (homosexuality) and J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series (wizardry). To celebrate books that some Americans want to see burned, the Wailuku Public Library will display special exhibits through Oct. 8 on many such “offensive” tomes, such as the Bible and Maya Angelou’s I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. [ANTHONY PIGNATARO]

Only Angelina Jolie will wipe sleep from your eyes Overwrought CGI snoozefest visually brags about how painstaking it was for its filmmakers to construct the lush imagery that serves as so much cinematic wallpaper for Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow, Angelina Jolie and Giovanni Ribisi to act in front of, but the hollow script will leave you cold. You can check off references to movies like Planet Of The Apes, Metropolis, Star Wars and Raiders Of The Lost Ark as they pass by under a gauze of vintage modern trappings in grungy deco design. Jude Law plays an über-pilot savior to a sepia-tone world attacked by giant robots, with Gwyneth Paltrow playing an ambitious journalist and arm’s-length love interest to Joe “Sky Captain” Sullivan (Law). Planes fly into the ocean to transform into submarines, while some unseen scientist (read deceased) attempts to put two animals of every species—that he fabricated—on a giant silver rocket before destroying the world. Every time a director uses Computer Generated Imagery to a greater extent than its been used before, there is a clamor among critics and filmmakers about how the technology will irreparably transform cinema. The threats never come to fruition—see George Lucas’ The Phantom Menace—and the discussion is usually more tiresome than the movie being touted.

blueprints that she possesses are just the ticket In this regard Sky Captain is no different. to rekindle their strangely asexual affair.

CELLULAR - (PG-13) - Action/Thriller - This woman gets kidnapped and suddenly, her only hope is her cell phone—yeah, good luck—so she calls some random guy—must have been through “directory assistance”—and the guy, not knowing it’s actually Kim Basinger on the other end, agrees to save her family and rescue her. Okay, this movie is just swimming in fantasy! I mean, not only is the cell phone battery not going to hold up for the two hours it takes to save the day but dude is going to be charged some major overage, which will prompt the cell phone company to “temporarily disconnect” until he agrees to sign another two-year contract and in the meantime, poor little Kim Basinger will be switching to AT&T. Can you hear me now?

Festival Express 5 & 7:30 p.m., Castle Theater Janis Joplin, The Grateful Dead and The Band light up this intimate music documentary shot in 1970 on a nearly non-stop, across Canada railroad trip, in a "riding that train...high on ..." and "what a long strange trip it's been" kinda-way, just months before Joplin's passing. "The best-looking and best-sounding footage of counterculture icons ever screened. An instant ancillary classic for music fans" raved Variety. And the SF Chronicle noted "Must-see cinema for any serious rock fan. Festival Express should rightfully take its place in rock history as one of the great performance films of all time." Rated R. 90 min.

New This Week FIRST DAUGHTER - (PG) - Romantic Comedy Political lies and familial deception? Sounds like the perfect premise for a romantic comedy! This one’s starring Katie Holmes as the President’s daughter, who demands to attend college sans any uptight, cock-blocking secret service agents. Her dad, the President, agrees but then assigns a young stud in plain clothes to follow her around anyway. Hmm... a young stud and a nubile college chick... what do you think happens, kids?! THE FORGOTTEN - (PG13) - Thriller - Julianne Moore stars in this psychological thriller as a single mother who loses her 8-year-old son and seeks emotional therapy from a head doc. But the psychiatrist (Gary Sinise) tells her she’s trippin—she never had a son and she’s making the whole thing up. But then she meets another parent going through the same thing so he two pair off to find out what the dealy is, yo. SHALL WE DANCE? - (PG) - Drama/ Musical This movie reads like an after-hours flick on cable: “An overworked Chicago accountant (Richard Gere), tired of the boring routine that his life has become, sees a beautiful dance teacher (Jennifer Lopez) through a window and decides to start taking lessons from her in order to get to know her better, and as the joy of dancing enters his life, he discovers that it might just be the secret to saving his troubled marriage...” (Greg’s Previews, Yahoo Movies!).

Now Showing ANACONDAS: THE HUNT FOR THE BLOOD ORCHID (PG13) – Action/Adventure/Suspense/Horror – A big pharmaceutical company sends beautiful people into the jungle looking for the legendary Blood Orchid that supposedly holds the key to eternal life. Good news it exists, bad news it’s being guarded by giant, murderous snakes who don’t want to give it up. Hey, it could happen. Sure, stuff like that happens all the time. You just don’t hear about it. Stupid liberal media. Stars a bunch of people you never heard of. ALIEN VS. PREDATOR - (PG13) – Science Fiction/Action – This landmark 5-4 Supreme Court decision from the final years of the often controversial Warren Court stipulated that in times of crisis involving scary monsters from space that drool acid and kill things really, really fast, humanity is pretty much screwed. How they converted Justice Felix Frankfurter’s dry, legalistic rhetoric that into a movie starring Lance Henriksen is beyond me. BOURNE SUPREMACY - (PG13) Action/Adventure - Think James Bond, but pissed off in a Fugitive kind of way. Jason Bourne (Matt Damon at his emotionally emptiest) is an exAmerican assassin who’s tired of killing foreign leaders and just wants to live with this German

COVER STORY

SURF

COLLATERAL - (R) - Crime/Thriller - This Michael Mann film stars Jamie Foxx as a washed-up comedy writer-turned cabbie and Tom Cruise as a pontificating assassin. The movie takes place over one night as Foxx drives Cruise around from hit to hit. People get killed, Foxx delivers a few one-liners, and then everyone looks slick and stylish as they chase each other through L.A. Also stars Jada Pinkett-Smith. THE COOKOUT – (PG 13) – Comedy – Think Hoop Dreams plus a little Barbershop, then a sprinkle of He Got Game and all mixed in with a truckload of clichéd characters. This is the tale of the NBA’s number one draft pick who’s now loaded with endorsements and a $30 million New Jersey Nets contract. So he throws a cookout party for his family to celebrate. Get it? He’s rich, but he’s also an African-American who now lives with a bunch of stuffy white people. How do they come up with this stuff? Stars Storm P, Danny Glover and Farrah Fawcett. HERO – (PG13) – Action/Adventure - Jet Li stars in this martial arts movie that Yahoo! Movies blurb describes as, “In a distant war torn land, a ruthless emperor is rising to power with an iron fist and his massive armies. To control everything, he will stop at nothing.” Yeah, distant—try our country under George W. Bush. Anyway, Li kicks ass—I’m not being metaphoric here—so it’ll be fun. MR. 3000 – (PG13) – Comedy – Bernie Mac plays a retired Hall of Fame ballplayer who has to unretire when he finds out that three of his 3,000 hits have been disqualified. Not wanting to be known as Mr. 2997, he decides to make a comeback seven years after he last stepped to the plate. Also stars Angela Bassett. NAPOLEON DYNAMITE – (PG) – Comedy – A cult classic already because of the screening at the Wailea Film Festival this year, Napoleon Dynamite is about a red afrod-ed, dorky teenager who sells herbal breast enhancers door-to-door while practicing his dance moves and learning the way of the ninja as he helps his new best friend win the election for Student Body President. This is kind of a coming-of-age story but it’s hilarious so go see it, you big fat turd! Gawwwsh! NOW THAT I HAVE YOU – (PG 13) – Romantic Comedy – A guy and girl take the same train everyday from the same station. Then, because this is a movie about two people who see each other every day before finally meeting, they finally meet. She falls for him, thinks he’s Mr. Right, but he turns out to be uptight and dull. Will their love conquer all? But more importantly, will the audience stomach this all the way to the end? Stars Nikki Valdez and Kristopher Peralta PAPARAZZI – (PG 13) – Thriller – A young, hot movie star (Cole Hauser) and his beautiful wife (Robin Tunney) are just minding their own business one day, driving along being beautiful when four evil paparazzi photographers surround them and cause a car crash, which injures said wife, leaving said young, hot movie star to exact revenge on the shutterbugs. This is normally the part where I’d make a joke about how this should have been called The Tony Danza Story, but I’m afraid he’ll use it as an excuse to take revenge on me, so I won’t.

of a common girl who discovers her inheritance to the throne as a princess and has to suffer the consequences, like learning to ride horses side-saddle. In this sequel, Princess Mia discovers that she not only must take over ruling her new country but she’s got to find herself a man to stand behind her in marriage before she does so. This movie is just crawling with backhanded fantasies posing as feminist ideals, isn’t it? RESIDENT EVIL 2: APOCALYPSE - (R) Action/Adventure, Sci-Fi/Fantasy and Suspense/Horror – Sequel to the first Resident Evil film, which chronicled the adventures secret government agent Alice (Milla Jovovich) fought a bunch of “bloodthirsty zombies”—as if there were “vegetarian zombies” running loose—at the evil Umbrella Corporation. This movie takes place the next day, when Alice escapes to Raccoon City and finds just about everyone zombified. If that isn’t enough, there’s some monster on the loose named Nemesis who moans a lot. SKY CAPTAIN AND THE WORLD OF TOMORROW – (PG) – Science Fiction/Adventure – For all the stunning digital-effects that make up the movie’s 1939-style future world, the plot is elegantly simple: Hero pilot Sky Captain (Jude Law) and fetching reporter Polly Perkins (Gwyneth Paltrow) team up with spooky/sexy aviatrix Franky Cook (Angelina Jolie) to find missing scientists and save the world from giant robots and monsters. But what’s really remarkable about this film is that director/screenwriter Kenny Conran has absolutely no Hollywood experience—for the last decade, he’s spent every day of his life working on the movie on his home computer. SUPER BABIES: BABY GENIUSES 2 - (PG) Family Comedy - Four talking toddlers turn superhero spies in order to save the world from an evil, mind-controlling, media mogul. And I hear one of the toddlers is up for best supporting actor for this one. WICKER PARK – (PG-13) – Romantic Thriller – So this investment banker played by Josh Hartnett has a girlfriend who he really loves until one day she suddenly disappears so he goes and tries to find her but he can’t so he tires of the search and decides to settle down and try to forget about her but he can’t but then one day he thinks he sees her in this café so he freaks out and becomes obsessed and now that I think about it wasn’t this Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo? Also stars Matthew Lillard. WIMBLEDON – (PG13) – Romantic Comedy – An unlucky tennis player (Paul Bettany) winds up on a lucky streak which lands him in the prestigious Wimbledon tournament, where he falls in love with an American tennis star (Kirsten Dunst) and the two lovebirds live happily in white tennis outfits forever more. Or do they? WITHOUT A PADDLE - (PG13) - Comedy - Think Deliverance, but not as funny. Seth Green, Matthew Lillard and Dax Shepard play three guys who take a canoe into the Oregon wilderness looking for treasure but finding dangerous hunters, hippie chicks, wild rapids and some crazy old coot played by Burt Reynolds who starred in, among other movies, Deliverance.

BY JOE GATTO

Salsa for the Orphans How dancing can help people Swirling, steamy dancers are packing the floor. Men are spinning women around gracefully. Dozens of brighteyed, passionate people crowd in front of the stage, arm in arm, in a constant, dynamic embrace. “Mi negrita, dame un beso de tu boquita,” sings the salsero on stage, guiro in hand. The singer exuberantly leads the full salsa band—guitar, bass, keyboards, drums and percussion—as they work the dancers into frenzy. Then the conguero lets loose with an amazing conga jam. This is not Caracas or San Juan. No, it was a little closer to home. This salsa party happened at Hapa’s in Kihei Aug. 27 with Dr. Nat and Rio Ritmo. The Latin music and dance scene on Maui is growing. And it’s all-inclusive. It isn’t necessary to be Latino to get into the exciting vibe. Dr. Nat and Rio Ritmo, the main proponents of live salsa and Latin funk on Maui, always raise the energy level. At the Aug. 27 Hapa’s show they were in top form, which was good considering that the event was the latest Salsa for Orphans Latin Dance Party Benefit. The band was tight and had scores of people on the dance floor going all out for two sweaty hours. Some outstanding salsa dancers were twirling and grooving across the surging mass of people. But it isn’t so important to know the steps well—the important part is to get out there and feel the energy of the rhythm. Dr. Nat and Rio Ritmo mix various styles of Latin music—salsa, son, samba and timba. “As the world gets smaller the styles merge and there is a fusion of different elements,”

Dr. Nat and Rio Ritmo Dr. Nat and Rio Ritmo will perform on Saturday, Sept. 25, at Casanova in Makawao. For more information, check out www.drnat.com. The next Salsa for Orphans Latin Dance Party Benefit is on Oct. 8 at Hapa’s. In the meantime, potential salsa dancing addicts can hone their skills every Tuesday with Bogouslavski’s class at Hapa’s in Kihei from 6-8 p.m.

says Dr. Nat. “Latin music is becoming more and more popular here. People who don’t know the steps now feel comfortable enough to go out on the floor and make their own thing up. They just want to let it all out and not be chained down by the steps, their bodies start to feel the rhythm and move any old way.” The salsa movement on Maui has become an altruistic party scene. For example, Dr. Nat works with Enlace Hispano and Maui Economic Opportunity (MEO) to help newly arrived Latinos. The Salsa for Orphans Latin Dance Party Benefit, founded and led by Russian native Kira Bogouslavski, has become the premier Latin music and dance event on the island. Bogouslavski also operates www.mauisalsa.com to keep people informed of dance opportunities. He has manifested a unique concept that brings out more people each time around. This outstanding party always starts out with a free salsa dancing lesson and practice session with a salsa DJ. Then several remarkable dance acts show their stuff on stage, from Afro Cuban to Belly dancing. All this happens by 11 p.m., before Dr. Nat and Rio Ritmo get things really fired up. Bogouslavski is a passionate influence on the development of Maui’s salsa scene. “I started the charity one year ago as a fun fundraiser,” he says. “I moved here and got to know people through dancing, so I want to keep developing a community and get more people dancing. I want to see more venues open to it, more bands, and continue to invite guest teachers. Anyone can get involved, and once they do they love it and become salsa addicts.” MTW

Frankie Sez... This week on ‘North Shore’

MJ invites Chris to move in to her new beach pad, giving Frankie more room to be a bachelor. Gabe and Erika are still fighting over Charlie, who decides she wants Frankie instead. Walter terrorizes everyone by buying half of the hotel then threatens Nicole that if she doesn’t move back to New York with him, he’ll buy the rest and fire everyone. Tessa meets her match in Alexandra Hudson (Shannen Doherty), who flew in from Beverly Hills to meet her daddy, Walter. But Walter wants nothing to do with her so she half-sisterly bonds with Nicole and gives her some info on Marriette, but Nicole flies back to Kauai only to find the B&B empty. Vincent flirts with his pistol, fantasizing about killing Walter, until Jason stops him. Double-crossing Tessa sells out the hotel but then she sells out Walter and sides up with her conniving equal, Alexandra. Nicole decides she is over her dad, slaps him silly and becomes disowned, which means Alexandra will be lining up for all that dough, just as she had planned all along.

Line of the Week: Alexandra Hudson action figure available soon!

You’re one of the good guys this week. You and I know you’re one of the good guys almost all the time—just not attention-hungry enough to point it out to those assholes who believe otherwise. Still, it’s nice when opportunities like those you’re privy to this week present themselves—cool shit that can’t help but attract favorable notice and recognition. Don’t shoot yourself in the foot by avoiding these ventures for that reason. Just do them, then graciously accept the overdue praise when it comes. Those frequent pats on the back might feel unfamiliar—but still pretty good, no?

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) If you start coming down with the sniffles this week, get thee to bed. You’re used to ignoring signals like these in favor of some kind of superhuman self-image, but that’s so unhealthy. Some less vocal part of you—your body, your subconscious, heck, even your conscience—is just trying to say: “Slow down, I need a break.” Ignore these somewhat subtle messages if you can’t be bothered, but don’t say I didn’t warn you: At some point, your hidden, wiser self will dispense with gentle hints and just knock you off your feet.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) This week, consider the wise words of your Capricorn brother, Kahlil Gibran: “The reality of the other person lies not in what he reveals to you, but what he cannot reveal to you. Therefore, if you would understand him, listen not to what he says, but rather to what he does not say.” Why, you may ask, can’t people just be direct and say what they mean (and vice versa)? Why do you have to be the evolved one who has to read between the lines? Sorry, my dear, but the only answer I have is: because you can.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) The other day, I spent a couple hours floating blissfully in a hot, salty pool while underwater speakers piped me full of soothing music, and multihued lights played gently across the arched ceiling. I wasn’t thinking about you then—the effect, in the moment, was deliciously ego-erasing and thought-tamping—but afterwards I couldn’t stop reflecting on how much good something like that would do you. It’s not your style to escape yourself through alcohol or drugs, like some signs. But taking a break from being stuck inside your head is nevertheless called-for. Luckily, there are ways to do that which are good for you (think massage, road trip, New Age spa, tantric sex). Try one.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) This week, be honest. Your impressive ability to lie to yourself (often for very compelling reasons) is your Achilles’ heel. Most of your suffering—and the suffering you unintentionally inflict on others—comes from when these deceits are uncovered, which they inevitably are, eventually. I don’t mean to beat you up here; Everyone lies to themselves at times. It’s just that you’re becoming quite good at it, and things are getting out of hand. Examine your thoughts and actions over the next seven days, and make sure they jive. Remember, if it turns out there’s a lie, better it comes out now than later.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)

SHARED HOUSING, ROOMMATES

I have yet to meet an Aries under 35 who doesn’t have at least one bad tattoo. It’s part of your impetuous nature, it seems, to rush out and get some ill-thought icon branded onto your body as soon as you possibly can, then regret it years later when you finally happen upon some wisdom to balance all that enthusiasm. This isn’t a bad thing; tattoos are part of your history and reflect who you once were, and to me that makes them fascinating. I mention this because of your recent attempts to cover up or ignore a bad tattoo (or some other part of your past you’re less than proud of). It doesn’t matter how ugly, lame or embarrassing it is. You don’t need to be proud of it, but you’re not going to be happy until you at least accept it.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) No news is good news, right? Sometimes. But the danger of weeks like this one, where nothing externally major is likely to occur, at least to you, is that you’ll mess things up. Sorry, but it’s true. Right now you’ve got so much energy it might be difficult to let things lie. Instead of just enjoying the serene stillness, as a Pisces might, or worrying that it’s the calm before a class-5 storm, like a Cancer would, you’re tempted to rock the boat until it’s nearly capsized. Curb these self-sabotaging instincts, would you? You’ve got a long trip ahead of you in exactly this fragile dinghy. Why set yourself up for more bailing and flailing than you’re in for already?

Poor tongue-tied Libra. Your usual chattiness has failed you: now that communication feels more urgent and necessary than it has in months or years, you’re screwed; everything comes out wrong. It won’t help when Jupiter—the planet of expansion—and fiery, intensifying Mars swoop into your sign later this week; all those immense, undeniable feelings will just get bigger and more acute—and even harder to articulate. Trying to convey all your pressing, exciting emotions will just frustrate you right now, so be patient. Next week, saying what you mean will be a simple thing—as long as you don’t have to wade through a mess you made this week, trying.

HIV COUNSELING AND TESTING

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) Stop cursing yourself. A series of coincidences isn’t proof that you’re screwed. One Gemini I know hasn’t had a full night’s sleep in a week; he keeps getting awakened by lovers’ quarrels (or make-up sex), garbage trucks, hoodlums, salesmen, etc. I blame the sleep-deprivation for his leap to the absurd conclusion that he is doomed to never get a full eight hours again. The tricky thing is, once you start believing you’re not going to sleep well, you probably won’t. Beware this tendency. If you start telling yourself a story, based on recent bad luck—that you’ll never get a job, you’re unlovable, sleepless, sexless, etc.—it could be become self-fulfilling prophecy if you’re not careful.

If you feel that you have been potentially exposed to HIV and would like Free, Confidential and Anonymous testing call the Maui AIDS Foundation at 242-4900. It is important to know your HIV status so that you do not unknowingly pass the virus to others, also early detection is vital to your health and treatment. The Maui AIDS Foundation now offers Drop-In HIV Counseling and Testing (No appointment necessary) Drop in hours are Mon.-Fri. 8:30am to 4:30pm, Wed. 8:30am to 7pm 1935 Main Street, Wailuku For more information on HIV/AIDS, STD’s including Viral Hepatitis and HIV Counseling and Testing call the Maui AIDS Foundation at 242-4900. In Hana call 248-7801, Lanai 5656722, and Molokai 553-9086.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) A vicious truth is better than a kind lie, when dealing with you Crabs. Here’s why: You’re almost psychically ultrasensitive. So when some lameass cover story doesn’t jive with what your intuition is telling you, you start developing unhealthy habits of self-doubt. Even when the liar is outed later, those habits stick with you. I’m not saying anyone’s lying to you or screwing you over. I have no way of knowing that, one way or the other. But, considering the damage deception can deal you, I’d say it’s worth reiterating how important honesty is to you, and this is a good week to do it. However, try to avoid language like: “You lie to me, I’ll kick your ass.” It’s not helpful.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) Ah, the Full Moon in Aries. Every year around this time you’re tempted to do something really fun—and really stupid. It’s no biggie; you always cope just fine with the regret afterwards (of either doing it or not doing it). I just thought that this time around you’d like to try something different—ask yourself: Is a thrilling moment (or few hours) worth days or weeks of consequences? I can’t answer that for you and since you’re cool either way, the answer’s mostly irrelevant. Here’s the rub: Just by asking the question, you ought to be able to minimize the consequences, or maximize the fun (though, sadly, probably not both).

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) You’re not eligible for sainthood until after you’re dead, so chill. Your empathy is dangerous right now. Because of the things you’re involved in, you’re brought into close proximity with people whose lives are profoundly different from yours. These intoxicating glimpses into diverse and exotic lifestyles can be especially compelling at the moment, but they’re just glimpses. Don’t let them sidetrack you. Sometimes it’s good to let a powerful impression guide you, but since you’re clueless about the big picture, that’s not the best plan. Letting your current experiences inform future decisions is a good thing. Allowing them to invalidate careful choices you’ve made over months or years? That’s just wrong.

HOLOHOLOGIRL

BY SAMANTHA CAMPOS

I Am Woman, Hear Me Purr Seek out that particular mental attribute which makes you feel most deeply and vitally alive, along with which comes the inner voice which says, ‘This is the real me,’ and when you have found that attitude, follow it. —William James There’s nothing like a drag show to make me feel so very butch. At Sunday night’s 6th Annual Ultimate Panache Pageant, the most glamorous female illusionists strutted their stuff at the Maui Theater in Lahaina. BJ, Kim and I were there, jaws agape at the splendor of boys in dresses, looking way better than they had a right to—and us feeling like hags in potato sacks by comparison. As the theme song from over-the-top ‘80s TV show Dynasty played, over-the-top Mistress of Ceremonies Leikia Williams introduced Casey Carrington, the Pageant’s producer. “Much love for hosting a mahoo event,” Leikia said. “You know how it is here, honey!” Then last year’s National Showgirl Goddess Kylie West Williams sauntered onto the stage. Already quite statuesque, she also had her dark curls piled high atop a 10-inch rhinestone tiara. “I really like that outfit,” said Kim. “I like that hairdo,” said BJ. “I think I need to get a tiara,” I said. Other pageant winners from last year were introduced, like Jewel of the Galaxy Aiko, and Mr. Galaxy Pacific Sami, a.k.a. Cocoa Chandelier. The audience erupted in adulation and applause. “It’s all about that tall one, honey—oh, please!” said Leikia. The first category for Jewel of the Galaxy 2004 was “Hair Do Creation.” Winning contestant Marina Del Rey displayed an impressive five-foot tall tower of a blonde wig with bright pink flowers. “The bigger the better, honey,” said Leikia. “I wanna see them touch that roof and clean it out—trust!” Then contestants filed out for 2004 National Showgirl Goddess’ first category “Funky Creation.” Electric peacock feathers, provocative chains and futuristic pink glitter straps barely adorned the dazzling performers, as they energetically danced and lip-synched. “Shake ‘n bake, girl!” said Leikia. “I would wear that,” said Kim. “Ooh, I’m gonna make a sketch of that one!” said BJ. “I need to change my walk,” I said. One of the categories for the more butch Mr. Galaxy Pacific was “Showboy Costume.” Contestant Ikaika walked onto the stage in a hula boy-lamp costume replete with oversized shade and grass skirt. “Ooh, I wanna put that lamp on my table and turn it on all night!” said Leikia. Then 2003 National Showgirl Goddess Kylie West Williams came back to perform a spirited reggae-inflected number in dreads and a groovy, black and white pantsuit. “I fucking love that outfit!” said Kim. “Check out the shoes!” said BJ. “That’s it—I’m going shopping tomorrow!” I said. “Okay, sketch!” Kim said to BJ. And finally, after Showgirl Goddess contestant and female illusionist Sydney Australia dazzled the audience in a Mardi Gras-inspired, skimpy bikini top and g-string ensemble, Kim asked the question we had all secretly been wondering during the entire show: “Where IS it?” she asked. The show was inspiring. Here were men who embraced feminine power with gusto. It seems that biologically born women are so hesitant these days to flaunt—or want to downplay—their girlishness—it’s seen as a weakness or handicap. But the drag queens at the Panache Pageant weren’t afraid to show it, love it, put a purple feather on it and parade it around. They were proud to be women—or “shims,” as Williams put it. They made me want to call my mom and thank her for my mammaries. As we were leaving, I did my best to sashay like the divas on stage but I ended up looking like I had hip dysplasia. Is sometimes feeling like an awkward boy part of being a natural woman? MTW
