LETTERSTOTHEEDITOR WANTS MORE GENERALISSMO FRANCISCO FRANCO IN THE PAPER Hi. Just wondering [about] this article on Salvador Dali (“My Affair with Salvador Dali,” Jan. 11, 2007), why you guys didn’t think it was necessary, besides of course mentioning he was a great artist, maybe also mentioning the political context, especially his excellent connections to the Franco regime… If it’s not a leader, a fuhrer, a king or Franco, who cares. Maybe you also could have mentioned who were his great connections to the Franco regime… But I guess political context outside of Maui isn’t relevant to you guys there. Thank you. Goodbye. -Anonymous, via voicemail

THAT’S SHOWBIZ I don’t know you but I do read your article every week. I am disappointed in this week’s article (Holoholo Girl, Jan. 18, 2007). I know the girls on the [Maui Fever] show and I think they are getting enough shit about it that you don’t need to print a hurtful piece because you may have had nothing else to write about. These girls are nice and fun to hang out with. Even they are not completely satisfied with the way they are being portrayed. Just keep in mind almost any 20 something living on this island would love to get their fifteen minutes. MTV chose the cast at an open casting call and it was their choice to cast all white kids. I’m just saying they are people too and when you project negativity and hate that is what will come back too you. How about next week you hit a more pleasant topic. No hard feelings. -Andrea Vreedenburgh, via email

I am especially glad you included the information about Superferry’s Terry O’Halloran and Terry White sitting on the [Humpback Whale Sanctuary Advisory Council]; I have found it absolutely maddening that this conflict of interest has not been been brought to the public’s attention in most articles. Even today if you go to the Sanctuary’s website there is no mention of O’Halloran’s employment or connection to Superferry in his bio. He is still listed as Tourism Business Solutions, LLC. I spoke with both O’Halloran and was never given a straight answer. I also found it ironic in Ed Tanji’s [Maui News] article about protest at the Maui Sanctuary the other day that the Superferry issue was not mentioned. It is entirely unethical for the Sanctuary to have come up with this whale avoidance policy while two representitives of Superferry sit on Council seats. Please keep up the good work in bringing these facts to the public’s attention! -Irene Bowie, via email

SUITE LIFE It isn’t often a big landowner moves up the Maui 10 chart because its signature hotel announces it will close for six months starting this summer, but Maui Land & Pineapple isn’t your typical landowner. Starting July 2 of this year, the Ritz-Carlton Kapalua—built atop land leased from Maui Land a mere 14 years ago—will undergo a major renovation costing $95 million, according to the Jan. 17 Honolulu Advertiser. The trick is that the Ritz-Carlton—one of the most luxurious hotels in all of Hawai`i—will be going partially condo. The hotel room count will drop from 548 to 470, and for the first time the hotel will sell off 107 suites for at least $895,000 each. “I think there’s a lot of pent-up demand,” Jerry Landeck, a senior partner with hotel owner Gencom Group, told the paper. “We feel we have a winning combination of residential use and legendary Ritz-Carlton hotel service.” While not a timeshare—like virtually everything else that’s being built on the Westside—the new Ritz-Carlton will affect the region in much the same way: owners don’t patronize restaurants nearly so often as hotel guests. Considering how much of the Westside economy hinges on the service industry, this could eventually be a very big deal.

After many, many months of abysmal customer service—so much so they had to call in the services of an outside contractor—Carlyle Group-owned Hawaiian Telcom finally in December 2006 managed to achieve a level of answering 70 percent of calls from curious, concerned or just plain pissed off customers within 20 seconds. This achievement, still shy of the 85 percent figure mandated by the state Public Utilities Commission, occurring in what is traditionally a slow month for customer services calls and a year that has seen a ridiculously low 36 percent response average, is nonetheless evidence of marked improvement. I’m sure it will please the state investigators who will spend much of this coming year looking into the phone company’s customer service troubles. MTW

Paia Gets a Little Peace Maui Dharma center celebrates its Lha Bab Stupa

A good deal less horrific—but far more hilarious—is the context surrounding the word “special” in the county Department of Liquor Control’s Bible, otherwise known as the “Rules Governing the Manufacture and Sale of Intoxicating Liquor of the County of Maui.” Specifically, Section 08-101-23 of the code, titled “Special Conditions.”

Stupa Offering

PHOTO: MIRA ALLEN

Sat., Jan. 27, 10 a.m.-4 p.m.; Sun., Jan. 28, 10 a.m.-2 p.m. at the Maui Dharma Center, 81 Baldwin Ave., Paia. For more information call 579-8076 or visit www.mauidharmacenter.org.

JANUARY 25, 2007

‘Special Conditions’ In his acclaimed 1989 book The Second World War, British historian John Keegan lamented how a certain word achieved an ugly notoriety during the 20th century’s greatest bloodbath: “how terrible a meaning did ‘special’ acquire during the Second World War— ‘special leader,’ ‘special command,’ ‘special treatment’ all spelt death to the defenceless and disfavoured.”

Located on Baldwin Avenue in Paia, the Maui Dharma Center’s Lha Bab Stupa stretches 27 feet into the sky. A square base houses a room that will hold a traditional Tibetan prayer wheel. Above that is a rounded section meant to hold a myriad of sacred objects.

“A Stupa is a symbol of the Wisdom Teachings of all the Buddhas, and represents the Perfect Enlightened Mind,” reads a Dharma Center brochure. “It is a place where all the Buddhas abide, and contains numerous sacred, rare, and meaningful objects.” Among these objects are thousands of Tsa Tsas—small gold and red relics containing a prayer. The prayers are inscribed by hand on tiny strips of paper, then wrapped around a small piece of incense. Members of the Dharma Center made the Tsa tsas over a period of several months. Starting Saturday morning, a twoday event will feature traditional Tibetan ceremonies celebrating the Tsa tsas. Several spiritual leaders— called Lamas—from throughout the state will officiate, along with Lama Gyaltsen, the Maui Dharma Center’s resident Lama and project overseer. As part of the celebration, the Dharma Center is giving the public an opportunity to contribute items of their own that they value and want placed within the Lha Bab Stupa. The event will culminate at 2 p.m. Sunday afternoon when the section of the Stupa that holds the religious items will be sealed. Suggested items for inclusion are jewelry, precious metals, rare medicines, crystals, small musical instruments, herbs and seeds. Dharma Center officials ask that attendees refrain from bringing any large objects, human or animal ashes, hair

LC Watch

This is the part of the LC’s code that most famously requires dance clubs to keep booze out of their dance floor. But it also prohibits a lot of other activity that doesn’t so much involve liquor as it does, well, sex and hardcore nudity. “Entertainers shall not expose to view any portion of the pubic hair, anus, cleft of the buttocks, vulva or genitals, or any portion of the female breast below the top of the areola,” states Paragraph (d). And such prohibitions aren’t limited to “entertainers”—Paragraph (l) prohibits similar exposure from “any person.”

That’s quite a Stupa

or chipped and unclean items. The Maui Dharma center broke ground for the Lha Bab Stupa in April of 2005. It’s dedicated to the late Lama Tenzin, who passed away in 2001 and was the Center’s first full-time resident teacher. Since construction began, volunteers have shaped the structure into a truly impressive addition to Paia. Careful consideration has been given to ensure that the exact dimensions meet the true Tibetan Stupa requirements. The structures are said to be a silent teaching of the Buddha, and hold the power to bring peace and liberation to those who look upon them. There are eight types of Stupas, each commemorating a time in the Buddha’s life. The Dharma Center’s Lha Bab Stupa commemorates the Buddha’s descent

MAUI TIME WEEKLY

from the God Realm of Tushita and his subsequent return to earth. Buddhists believe that when the Buddha died, his remains were scattered in 10 different Stupas. None of these have been identified, but there is speculation surrounding a couple Stupas in India. Some believe they are restorations of the original place of Buddha’s internment. MTW

Paragraph (f) goes even further. This one prohibits licensees from “permit[ting] any person” to engage in (either actually or through simulation) “Sexual intercourse, masturbation, sodomy, bestiality, oral copulation, or flagellation” as well as prohibiting “the touching, caressing or fondling of the breast, buttocks, anus or genitals.” Most curiously, the code also prohibits liquor licensees from allowing, “any female impersonator to perform acts of or acts wherein such person displays any portion of the breast below the top of the areola.” I’ve never personally witnessed such an activity, nor have I seen it in any of the LC Board of Adjudication minutes dating back to the late 1990s, but I have no doubt such an act would definitely be special.

ROBREPORT

BY ROB PARSONS ROBPARSONS@EARTHLINK.NET

What the Heck is ‘Sustainability?’ So what if Maui gets the reputation for being “anti-development?” Being seen as “pro-development” is much more dangerous. The mindset on that island, on all the Hawaiian Islands has to change from this “build, build, build” madness to something more realistic to sustaining life and lifestyle on an island with limited resources. -Lee Cataluna, Maui girl and Honolulu Advertiser columnist, 2004 What is “sustainability,” really? It seems that to some, “sustainability” is what “smart growth” was a few short years ago: a buzzword and marketing tool. Executives, bureaucrats and developers sprinkle “sustainability” language into their mission statements, long-range plans, and promotional materials. It’s an appropriate response to a growing segment of communities that realize the status quo of living out of balance with the planet’s eco-systems has to shift. But, is it enough? Last weekend, panelists at the Honua Òla event at Kamehameha Schools were asked to define sustainability and explain how we should address it. Former Maui schoolteacher of the year, Joy Gaston, held up a globe she called “Spaceship Water” and said, “To understand sustainability, we must understand how the whole planet works.” One of the problems is that rather than embracing global awareness, we still tend to “think locally and act locally.” We must come to terms with the reality that Hawaiì is dependent on imports of food (85 percent), fossil fuels (90 percent), and tourist dollars to sustain us. Any economic downturn, catastrophic weather event or global political skirmish could bring our house of cards tumbling down. Worldwide, the handwriting is on the wall. “The maximization of corporate profits as our economy’s highest priority is progressively destroying the interwoven fabric on which all life depends,” says author Joanna Macy. “Feedback from the biosphere—climatic disruptions and loss of forests, fisheries, and topsoil—is revealing that our present economy is unsustainable. It indicates an urgent need to change the goals our system pursues and the values by which it measures its success.” Honua Òla panelist Kimokeo Kapehulehua was succinct in linking

sustainability to Hawaiian culture: “To the Hawaiians, environment and culture was one in itself.” That our Americanized, multi-cultural society here in 2007 has strayed so far from this precept helps to explain the predicament we’re in. The 2004 report Sustainable Tourism in Hawaii noted that with seven million visitors yearly, the 50year-old visitor industry may be near the maturation of its life cycle. But unlike the earlier days of economies based on sandalwood, shipping, whaling, sugar and pineapple, there is no viable substitute for tourism in sight. Just below tourism on Hawai`i’s top

economic generators are the construction industry and government spending, which is largely military. Can anyone conceive that either one could be construed as “sustainable?” At the kickoff of the Hawai`i 2050 community planning effort last August, Ramsey Taum of Sustain Hawaii described environment, culture, and economy as the “triple bottom line” for the state. The Hawaii Sustainability Task Force (www.hawaii2050.org) will continue to facilitate public participation throughout 2007, drafting a sustainability plan to be submitted to the legislature at

What is Sustainable? CURRENT STATUS QUO

WHAT’S POSSIBLE

• Mono-crop plantations • $4 billion annual food imports • Air, soil, water pollution • Imported lumber • Cane burning • Heavy irrigation • 90 percent fossil fuel imports • Greenhouse gas emissions • Minimal biofuel usage • Seven million-plus tourists/year • Eighty-five percent food imports • Overburdened highways • Poor fuel economy • Imported bldg materials • Depleted aquifer • Strained infrastructure

• Bio-diverse farming • Home grown food supply • Organic methods • Koa forest regeneration • Green harvesting • Permaculture • Biofuel exports • Windpower • Biofuel crops • Cultural and eco-tourism • Bio-diverse farming • Public transportation • Plug-in hybrid cars • Bamboo, coconut, koa, etc • Water conservation • Proper assessment fees -RP

the end of this year. While I attended the daylong Hawaii 2050 event, I was struck by the need for both hopefulness and a sense of urgency, if the planning is to be successful. In An Inconvenient Truth, Al Gore noted that with respect to catastrophic climate change, many people go from denial to hopeless despair without leaving any time for action. Yes, the health of our planet is in critical decline, and the error of our consumptive ways as the cause is readily apparent. Yet there’s still hope to change our course. Our new County administration has announced that renewable energy initiatives and biofuel crops are important to Maui, but that two months until the budget proposal goes to Council is “just too short” to offer any new initiatives, though some may appear in the 2009 budget. Can we really afford to wait? Large landowners and developers are bringing traditional neighborhood designs into their planning “charrettes.” But they may neglect to weigh their proposals in the context of the island’s inadequate infrastructure. A wonderfully planned project plopped down in the wrong place is neither smart growth nor sustainable building. There is a great need to educate ourselves, our decision makers and our children on what’s possible. Shanah Trevenna is Student Sustainability Coordinator at the University of Hawai`i’s Manoa campus. She believes the passion of the students provides a “beacon of hope” in efforts to reeducate, and believes the university must help lead the way. Under her guidance, interactive kiosks will be installed at sevenstory Saunders Hall, offering touch screen information on real-time water and electrical usage on each floor. One of the booths at Honua `Ola featured Hawaii PV Coalition, working to highlight solar photo voltaic energy, which doesn’t produce the emissions of fossil fuels or biofuels. They provided a handout with 10 simple ways to help reduce emissions and slow global warming. Unquestionably, our future will look radically different than our past. Yet, with the wisdom inherent in the Hawaiian culture and many indigenous cultures, we must honor our connection with the Earth itself. Watching Mother Nature around us, and listening carefully to her messages, we may find greater discernment in daily decisions that lead us to true sustainability, which I define as follows: Sustainability is providing for current needs in ways that do not diminish or deplete future generations from enjoying the same quality of life, or benefiting from the same resources.

The Exchange WHO GAVE: Ralph Masuda WHO RECEIVED: Maui County Council

Chairman Riki Hokama DATE: Nov. 3, 2003 AMOUNT: $300

It was hardly anything at all, buried amongst the 16 communications listed on the Jan. 19, 2007 Maui County Council meeting agenda. Nothing more than a letter from Ralph Masuda, Castle & Cooke’s Vice President of Planning & Zoning, to Council Chair Riki Hokama, it was a “status report” on C&C’s luxurious Terraces at Manele project on Lanai. Hokama placed the letter on the agenda “for referral to the appropriate standing committee for discussion and possible filing.” A land developer wishing to communicate with the County Council would naturally and properly first address the chairperson, but Hokama and Castle & Cooke go way back, most notably because Lanai is Hokama’s home island. Though Masuda’s campaign contribution to Hokama mentioned above is small and a few years old, state campaign finance records show Castle & Cooke’s Legislative Committee has given Hokama a total of $1,750 since 2002, the most recent check totaling $900, which the company handed over on Nov. 10, 2005. Of course, Castle & Cooke is used to dealing with slightly higher figures: the company’s website lists the Terraces at Manele as priced from $1,995,000 to $2,495,000.

EH BRAH! You may have been dumb, but at least you were honest. “I get seasick,” you told me as you climbed aboard for your dinner and sunset cruise. “Where is the best place for me to be?” You have no idea how hard it was to keep from replying, “On land?” So we fed you ginger ale and ginger candy to help settle your stomachs. Why then did you have to hit the buffet and load up your plates? Were you really surprised when you threw out or up most of the food. Not that we’re complaining—crewmembers are always happy to clean up messes like that. Here’s some free advice: the next time you decide you want a romantic meal, how about just sticking to one of the many nice restaurants on Front Street or South Kihei Road. That way you can have a nice meal and then stroll over to the dock or beach and watch the sunset. In case you didn’t know, being new to the island and all, you can see the sun setting just as well from the shoreline as you can from a boat. The only difference is the land doesn’t move, allowing the food and drink you paid for to stay where it’s supposed to be.

COCONUT WIRELESS THE WEEK IN REVIEW

Amidst all the talk and debate over what exactly to do with the state’s half a billion dollar budget surplus, the online edition of the Pacific Business News carried a very brief item titled “Poverty metrics: Hawaii’s problem is severe.” Whaaaat? The Aloha State, flush with tax revenue, bursting with wealthy tourists, has poor people? Apparently, and not just a few, either: “A national study finds that one in five Hawaii families have zero or negative net financial worth,” reported PBN. In fact, the problem is so bad that just five states are in worse shape. This is astonishing—20 percent of that same state that has nearly half a billion dollars burning a hole in its treasury’s pocket is, at best, living from paycheck to paycheck. But there’s reason for hope— with no election scheduled for another two years, our state legislators and esteemed Governor Linda Lingle have a free pass to work together on a realistic solution.

FRIDAY, Jan. 19

WEDNESDAY, Jan. 17 Dark day in the state Legislature today. Because of new rules adopted by the state House of Representatives and Senate, powerful industry officials will no longer be able to take unpaid intern positions in legislators’ offices. No more will people like Mark Forman, the Hawaii Medical Service Association Foundation executive administrative who also moonlights as a grown man, be allowed to intern for free in the office of someone like state Representative Bob Herkes, who last year chaired the House Consumer Protection Committee. What is this state coming to? Doesn’t the so-called “good government” crowd know what it costs big organizations and corporations to lobby our state legislators? What, you want those knuckleheads we elected to write the laws, without any help from Big Business? That’s crazy!

Woohoo! Tax rebate time! Who said Lingle didn’t care about poor people? The Associated Press is reporting today that she wants the state Legislature to pass a $346 million tax rebate package that would return to every family earning less than $100,000 a year the grand total of $100 per person. And I was worried our leaders wouldn’t take the state’s problems seriously.

SATURDAY, Jan. 20 As if there was doubt, the Superferry floats. So today’s Honolulu Star-Bulletin informs us. And not only does it bob in a generally upright position more or less exactly as designed, but the new Hawaii Superferry has a bitchin’ new logo, too! No more of that wussy “H4” nonsense that sported old Superferry mugs—a sleek, stylish manta ray now adorns the Superferry name. “The support is a natural fit with the image we have selected to represent Hawaii Superferry,” company president John Garibaldi says in the article. “Just as the manta navigates our waters with elegance and efficiency, so, too, will our ferry serve Hawaii. And unlike the stingray, the manta ray does

OVERHEARD... “There’s chapters on grow room design, buying your equipment, ordering seeds, seed germination, cloning, harvesting, drying and curing. That’s what I like, man—everything you need to know right in one book.” -Guy talking in Borders Books & Music in Kahului, Jan. 14

not sting, charge or bite. The benign manta ray calls Hawaii home, moving freely and naturally in our waters. This spirit exemplifies Hawaii Superferry’s connection to the state.” See? We have nothing to worry about. People looking at the Superferry logo may see a killer stingray, but they’re wrong, Wrong, WRONG. The Superferry will be an elegant, graceful ship, though in all honesty the boat’s projected 40-knot speed is a tad bit quicker than your typical manta ray. Also I don’t think manta ray could kill a humpback whale if it tried, charge $52 per person for a threehour Friday excursion or spend $84,317 lobbying the state Legislature between Mar. 1, 2005 and Apr. 30, 2006, but I might be wrong.

SUNDAY, Jan. 21

Dain Kane: the county’s newest lobbyist

Apparently, locals aren’t really taking to the new MTV reality show Maui Fever, which details the lives of a bunch of 20-something Westside haole hotties. “I couldn’t even stomach the first few minutes,” a Kihei mother says in today’s Maui News, which also quotes county Film Commissioner Benita Brazier as saying the show’s producers “did tell us they weren’t going to be offensive, and it seems like they’ve done just the opposite.” MTV offensive? The same network that produced such cultural pillars as Laguna Beach, Next! and all the Real World incarnations? You think they’re offended by all this bad publicity that’s doing little more than shoving legions of fans to the television screen? But hey, if you really get offended by a show about a gaggle of white kids trying to hook up every 17 seconds, think about the Jan. 16, 2007 Honolulu Advertiser story that revealed how show producer Asylum Entertainment has applied for a special state tax credit that encourages local movie production. Oh yes: it’s highly likely us Hawai`i residents will end up subsidizing Maui Fever. Now that’s reality TV.

MONDAY, Jan. 22 Though her theme involved innovation and risk-taking, Governor Lingle’s rhetoric during her annual State of the State Address this morning remained very safe. She liberally repeated well-worn, ultimately meaningless phrases like “digital revolution,” “global information-based economy,” “seize the moment,” “interconnected world” and “giving citizens the tools they need to compete in the 21st century” (a phrase that used to pack a lot more punch when it was just the 20th century). Her speech was basically a digest of “219 pro-

posals”—including tax breaks and incentives to encourage private industry to nuzzle even closer to government—that she said would convert our state economy from one based on land development to one “fueled by innovation,” whatever that is. Oh, and this morning the state killed the proposed Malulani Hospital, too.

TUESDAY, Jan. 23 After Dain Kane’s abysmal fourth place, 12.3 percent showing in the 2006 Maui County Mayor’s Race, many political observers wondered what the prodevelopment, four-term councilman representing Wailuku would do now that he was unemployed. But have no fear, Kane fans: he’s back to work at the county. According to Ken Fukuoka, the county’s Director of Council Services, Council Chairman Riki Hokama recently hired Kane as a temporary executive assistant. Kane’s primary responsibility will be to lobby the state Legislature, both to push bills the county wants—like a bill to allow the county regulate timeshares differently than hotels—but also to make sure state representatives don’t pass anything “harmful” to the county. As such, Kane’s employment will run the length of the current legislative session—Jan. 15 through May 15—and he’ll earn $6,250 a month, or $25,000 for the whole deal. While this sounds pretty damn good for just four months of work, Fukuoka added that since Kane’s posting is temporary he won’t accrue retirement benefits or get health insurance. Anthony Pignataro understands what it means to be offensive. MTW

NEWSOFTHEWEIRD ROBO-HEALTHCARE? Eventually, robots will have to be given legal rights—and accept certain responsibilities—if advances in artificial intelligence (AI) continue to create sensitive quasi-organisms, according to a paper solicited for Sir David King, the UK’s chief scientist. According to one AI researcher, “If [robots are] granted full rights, states will be obligated to provide full social benefits to them including income support, housing and possibly robo-healthcare to fix the machines over time.” A December Financial Times report on the paper noted that robots might also have to pay taxes and be available for military service. Some of the ideas in the paper track visions described years ago by writer Isaac Asimov.

KARL MALDEN LIVES! Many voters, and critics in both parties, chided the “do-nothing” 109th Congress (2005-2006) as a body tied up in partisanship and divisiveness. However, the Congress did manage to pass 383 pieces of legislation, except that almost 100 of those laws were merely authorizations to name post offices and other federal structures after famous Americans like Ray Charles, Ava Gardner and Karl Malden.

HOT PANDA LOVE One trick that zookeepers have used to get male pandas interested in mating with dowdier females (according to a December dispatch from Sichuan, China, in Australia’s The Age) is to let an attractive female roam around a pen, leaving her scent, and then, in darkness, with the male in the pen and frisky at the scent, to introduce the less attractive female into the pen, back-end first, so that the pre-excited male will quickly begin copulating. Said zookeeper Zhang Hemin, “When

the males find out [that they’ve just mated with unintended partners], they get very angry and start fighting the female. We have had to use firecrackers and a water hose to separate them.”

POLICE BLOTTER From the Arizona Daily Sun (Flagstaff, Ariz., 12-3-06): “About 1,800 square feet of insulation were reported stolen from the underside of a house on the 5100 block of East Hickory Drive. The victim said the insulation disappeared sometime between September and this week. She said she was having trouble keeping her house warm as the weather got colder.”

ETHICS IN TEXAS The Texas Ethics Commission ruled in November that a public official in the Lone Star state, receiving money as a gift such as from a lobbyist, need disclose only that he received “a check” or “currency” and need not reveal the actual amount of money. Said the outraged district attorney in Austin, it is now “perfectly legal to report the gift of ‘a wheelbarrow’ without reporting that the wheelbarrow was filled with cash.”

END MATTERS John Sheehan, 33, was arrested in November, nude, near the rapid-transit station in El Cerrito, Calif., and when asked if he was carrying contraband, admitted that he had a “screwdriver” in his rectum. Police treated the item as a potential weapon, training guns on him while he removed the six-inch-long awl wrapped in electrical tape. A week later, in Monkwearmouth, England, a 22-year-old Iraq-war veteran told buddies he was bored and, imitating a prank from Jackass, inserted a firework “up his backside,” according to a Daily Mail story, and lit it. He was later taken to Sunderland Royal Hospital with a scorched colon and other serious injuries. MTW

Curious to see how much a session of Concentration Meditation would cost, I called Margaret Astrid Phanes. She told me her sessions were $25 an hour.

The price of spirituality stresses me out. Why does it cost half of my rent to â&#x20AC;&#x153;enhance the essence of my beingâ&#x20AC;? for a weekend? I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t remember reading that Jesus or Buddha ever asked for hundreds of dollars as they were dropping knowledge and blessings, but I could have missed something. I first noticed this pricey investment trend in my 20â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s while living in the Bay Area. A girlfriend and I wanted to go to Harbin Hot Springs to a four-day enlightenment workshop that one of our groovy goddess gals had suggested. Assuming that it would fit into our non-existent budget, we headed out of the city. We naively drove to Middleton, excited that in just four days we would be â&#x20AC;&#x153;enlightened.â&#x20AC;? We cruised into the forest leading to the main house and were surrounded by older couples and middle-aged bohemians. They all stared at us as my yellow VW bug purred onto the grounds. Strolling into their workshop office, we found a woman behind a desk arranging pink cosmos in a vase. After telling her that we were there to attend the enlightenment workshop she calmly said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wonderful. We will just need the down payment, as well as the workshop fee, right away. Each of your totals will be $998.â&#x20AC;? My friend opened her eyes as big as the flowers on the desk. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What?â&#x20AC;? she asked. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You gotta be kidding me.â&#x20AC;? The cosmos woman assured us that she was most certainly not kidding us and that the fees covered room, board and food as well as the cost of communicating with Quan Yin, Abraham and Sananda. Not wanting to seem spiritually uncool, we said we would have to think about it and walked out. It didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to be our time, so we drove back to San Francisco, giggling at our soulful immaturity. Here in the islands there are copious ways to delve into the alternative world of spirit. For the price of $3,000 anyone is welcome to go to a transformational vacation called â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Art of Beingâ&#x20AC;? at Mauiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Kolealea Retreat Center for three weeks, where they can enjoy workshops in Tantra, open sharing circles and meditation. The purpose of the workshop is to â&#x20AC;&#x153;reconnect you with you essential natureâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;experience life fullyâ&#x20AC;? by also taking trips to â&#x20AC;&#x153;bathe in forest pools, play in the ocean, enjoy the whales and witness the glory of sunrise from the summit of Haleakala.â&#x20AC;?

Deficient Drive My quest in finding more willpower By Krista Sherer

recently asked some friends how they try to stay healthy. One said he’d stopped eating red meat six months ago, and now walks three to four miles every day. Another likes to ride her bike to work, avoid eating after 8 p.m. and “preserve” her liver with Vodka and pomegranate juice. Yet another has a long laundry list of ways to increase longevity: “No fried, greasy, fattening things; drink as much water as I can stand, avoid sodas completely, limit alcohol, try to exercise, try to go to bed early, meditate, avoid people who could add stress to my life, take my vitamins, limit my caffeine, absolutely no drugs, try to focus on the good things in my life and be grateful, and last but not least, tackle the issues in my life that are the most painful and work them out.” The following stories in this Mind Body Spirit Issue tell how some of us are trying to enhance our lives by adding or letting go of something. Whether it’s learning how to strengthen our resolve, or discovering how to block the inhibiting forces of depression, or simply finding out how to gain more positive energy, these are stories that depict the journeys we sometimes take in order to better our lives. No matter how we try, we all want to be healthier people. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have an underwater sacred dream alchemy yoga class to attend.

How can I get more willpower? This question has eluded me throughout my teen and adult years, set in motion by my first glazed donut. The glory of its sugary, squashy doughyness set a cellular pattern in my resistance gene. It was that first donut that set a cycle of behavior, making it easier for me to give into temptation. I have always made excuses for my lack of restraint. Whether it’s buying the shoes I don’t need or answering the phone when I shouldn’t, I somehow convince myself that I will be stronger later. But in spite of my half-hearted abilities, I found myself strangely motivated to find more willpower. I had no idea where to begin. I felt like Little Red Riding Hood walking through the forest, looking for my grandmother. Although I knew Grandmother wasn’t hiding in a poha berry bush, I kept searching for her. It was as if I would find her sitting serenely on a tree stump, humming softly, knitting me a hat. Well aware that I was one to complicate things, I decided to simplify. So I broke up my mission into the realms of Body, Mind and Spirit. I decided it would be best to consult a few of the all-knowing oracles of Maui’s holistic empire. Like acupuncturist Jeff Tice, a.k.a Needle Wizard. We met in a café where he ordered a glass of wine. If this was a test the wizard was giving me, I had already failed miserably. I ordered one, too, and sat sheepishly as we began our conversation. Ironically, he explained that it was the kidney organs that supported a person’s will. I smiled, knowing that my kidneys and I had been in cahoots for many moons and they had become comfortable with my apathy. Tice explained that there were many techniques for building kidney energy, one of them being a five-point ear treatment called the NADA method. Panicked, I thought to myself, “Nada, as in nothing. No more chocolate, no more expensive shoes, no more decadence?” Using his Jedi mind skills, he calmed me, clarifying that it was a protocol for addictive behavior named after the National Acupuncture Detoxification Association. He said that it was a powerful treatment stimulating the liver, lung, kidney, parasympathetic nervous system and the spirit gate (heart) that helps to build strength from within, supporting mental and emotional choices. “Naturally, the body, mind and spirit want to be in synchronicity with nature,” Tice said. “When any of those is out of synch, problems can arise.” Did he mean problems such as having this glass of wine on an empty stomach? I nodded and thanked him, agreeing that I would make a point to build my kidney energy after I finished my journey. The next phase was how I could support my mind in having stronger will. I was graciously led to Cassandra Sternthal, Marriage Family Therapist, a.k.a.

Queen Mind Reader. She explained that personality type has an effect on a person’s will. “Genetically, some people are born strong-willed, making it easier for them to be motivated,” she said. “Others have to learn to erect their will through life. They are the ones that have to look at and process why it is they are not willful.” How did she do that? It had only been a five-minute phone call before she was already calling me out on the carpet. I asked her what someone could do to gain more will. “It also has a lot to do with what you language to the self,” Sternthal said. “If you are saying truthful, powerful things you usually follow that path. The battlefield comes about with negative or shameful statements to the self and this affects the subconscious health. A negative mindset then assumes that things will not happen and they don’t.” I thanked Sternthal and meekly moved on to the last, but not least of my sages. Sal Colbert, an energetic realignment specialist, a.k.a. Medicine Woman, had given me a session in the past and I knew that the work she did couldn’t always be grasped by the heady mind. This time she explained to me how to support the spirit in having more will. “This is not an easy topic,” Colbert said. “We Jeff Tice, have always been dealing with this question as Blue Bamboo evolving humans. But first we must separate will Acupuncture from willpower.” & Wellness Center, Yes, finally, thank you! I knew there was an 244-6778. equation that I had been missing all along. Cassandra Sternthal, “Will is the noun and will power is the verb,” Marriage Family she said. “Will is an organic and ornate source Therapist, that we come into the world with a certain 280-8514. amount of, developing more as we go along. Sal Colbert, Willpower starts with the knowing of a desire. It is Spirit Helper, up to us to take that purposeful action to a 385-7378. place of sacred intention.” I was definitely picking up what she was putting down yet I still felt that I didn’t have the tools to implement these concepts, leaving me thirsty for more of her knowledge. “There are active ways to strengthen them both,” she said. “Will can be strengthened by emotionally claiming authority over your choices, be active in them. This allows you to be in authority of your emotions.” Colbert then went on to express how to strengthen one’s will power. “Evaluate your sources of inspiration. Make sure that the amount of energy that goes out equals what goes into you. Replenishing is important. “The archetype of will power is the warrior self,” she said. “It is vital that you stay in an empowered place; communicate your goals and wants. You don’t want to be a silent child.” I knew that had never or would never be an option, leaving me to feel like I had at least one thing working with me in my skirmish of will. I had made the crossing, allowing me to analyze my gatherings. To sum it all up, my magical journey taught me to be nice to my kidneys, to pay attention to my flaccid resolve and that in being conscious of my choices, I could strengthen my will. In the end, there might always be things I wish I did more of and other things I wish I didn’t do. But like the lovely Mae West once said, “I avoid temptation, unless I can’t resist it.” And if there is a will, there must always be a Mae. MTW

“A Doctor’s Confession to Maui” And Why I Still Do What I Do... CONFESSIONS ARE TOUGH. Real tough! Yet, sometimes a confession helps clear the air so there’s no misunderstanding. Before I talk about my confession, though, let me say a few other things first. Let me tell you about the picture you see of a very happy and loving family. The mother, Christina Kaina, was plagued with severe debilitating back pain, 24/7. So much that she was unable to sit, stand, lay down, walk or sleep without being in excruciating pain. She wanted desperately to be pain fee and be a good mother to her children, and to push her son, Logan, in his stroller. So she did everything that her medical doctors told her to do. Yet, after many doctor’s exams, specialized tests (i.e. CT and MRI scans) and tons of prescriptions, she was told that there is nothing that could be done. Her doctors declared her to be physically disabled. Now imagine being a 35-yearold mother with two children who used to be healthy, active, happy and felt great, being declared physically disabled and being in constant pain 24/7. After Christina started coming to our office, her problems improved, and her body started to heal itself. She was able to sleep all night without pain, she was able to push her son Logan around the neighborhood in his stroller. She was having pain-free days

and regaining her previous healthy, happy active lifestyle as the best Mom she could be. She enjoyed playing with her children and participated in all family activities. Her three-year-son, Logan, the baby in the picture, suffered from severe stomach and intestinal problems for half his life. After I started to adjust him, he improved immediately and is fully recovered. The beautiful girl in the picture is Holly, who has had Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis since birth. She is also getting adjusted and

Christina says she has improvements in her immune system and no more headaches. The big guy is the Dad, Andy, and after getting adjusted, his love back pain is gone.Andy states, “Getting adjusted has given me unlimited power to do whatever I want and work as hard as I like.” People come to see me for headaches, migraines, chronic pain, neck pain, shoulder/arm pain, low back pain, whiplash from car accidents, ear infections, asthma, allergies, numbness in limbs, athletic injuries, just to name a few.

Patients come to me and thank me for “curing” them, but I’m unable to really take the credit. My confession is that I’VE NEVER cured anyone of anything. What I do is perform specific spinal adjustments to remove nerve pressure, and the body responds by healing itself. We get tremendous results with our patients. You benefit from an amazing offer. It shouldn’t cost you an arm and a leg to correct your health. When you mention this article, you’ll receive my entire exam, including xrays for $35. Even with xrays, this exam could cost you over $200 elsewhere. And further care is really affordable and you’ll be happy to know that I have affordable family plans. Great care at a great fee... Ashley, Kathleen and Jennifer will make you feel comfortable as soon as you meet them. Everyone enjoys coming to our office where they can relax and recharge. We have wonderful services, at an exceptional fee. Our office is called Maui Family Chiropractic, and is located at 95 Lono Avenue, Suite 203 in Kahului. Our phone number is 871-6218.

Positively Negative One woman’s aversion to ‘The good stuff’ in life By Liliana Begley The general consensus is that I am a negative person. For example, a normal person sees a mosquito bite. I see dengue fever. A person coughs. I’m pretty sure it’s lung cancer. At the very least, emphysema. Bleeding gums? Oral cancer. I’m playing cards and flop a boat, the other guy’s bound to river his straight flush. I fold. Fender Bender? My spleen could be ruptured and I wouldn’t even know it. Call 911! I wish I was joking, but this is the sad truth. The good news is that I decided this year to learn to manifest some positive energy into my life. Being a negative head-case is giving me wrinkles and you know, wrinkles suck. Wrinkles mean old, and old means dying, and dying sucks. So I ask around. “How would one go about manifesting positive energy into their life?” I ask.

“Dude. Weed,” wheezes my stoner friend. “I’ll show you some positive energy,” says my husband. “You’re not getting all hippie on me again, are you?” asks my best friend. “Uhng, baaaaa,” says the baby. “Dammit, Mom, you just need a new life,” says my five-year-old daughter. I concur. The problem is that I’m on my third “new life” in 10 years and they tend to get more complicated every time I start over. Time to call in the professionals. I pack up the baby and head over to the New Waves Wellness Center in Makawao. I’ve been there in the past and have a great deal of respect for co-owner Terri Holter DCSW, LCSW. You catch that—the fancy stuff after her name? Yeah, it means she’s educated and actually knows what she’s talking about. Very important. Plus it means she can take insurance, also very important. Holter practices energy medicine—including Thought Field Therapy, Emotional Freedom Technique, Rapidly Integrating Transformation Technique, Healing from the Body Level Up and much, much more. To top it off, she’s served as a mental health professional since 1986. According to my mom, a mental health professional is exactly what I need. Perfect. So the baby and I sit down and I give Terri the lowdown on the need for positive energy. I add in that the baby is also a negative jerk and could use a little dose of goodness himself. She gives me the smile-slashgrimace of a woman who has seen and heard it all.

She does some muscle testing (a fascinating practice that looks like magic, but is actually scientifically backed—so cool!) and we discover that my polarity is totally flipped. Which means that I have a negative charge when it comes to certain affirmations. Not a major shock there. This particular affirmation is, “I make decisions with ease.” I have a major block when it comes to decision-making. Terri helps me perform a temporal tap—which is basically applying quick, gentle bursts of pressure to the head while repeating the affirmation. I repeat the process about five times before the muscle testing comes back that my polarity had flipped and that I now have a positive charge. The temporal tap affects how the brain processes information—the goal being to get the affirmation into your head before your subconscious can call you a liar. Terri also works on me using the “Healing from the Body Level Up” technique, which consists of more muscle testing. It’s really interesting to find that I have these trigger/blocks that are causing negative and destructive patterns within myself. You know how most people associate fear, pain, loneliness, etc. with a negative experience? Yeah, well my problems are happiness, love, commitment and any “strong emotion.” If you’ve read all of my journals since the age of 12, you’d probably get that, but there’s no way that anyone (not even close friends) could have pulled those out of the air. So we work on those with a combination of essential oils, sprays and more tapping. According to Terri, it’s going to take more sessions to weed through everything—there’s a lot of

stuff going on—years of negativity and all. Another thing that we do is this cool thing called HeartMath. Dr. Phil featured a product by this company on his show recently. Anyway, you put your finger into this thingamabob and it tracks and records your heart rhythms on the computer. Terri watches the screen and tells me that I have good heart rate variability, which is a huge indicator of vitality. I’m feeling more positive already. By reading the screen, she can also tell when my heart goes into its most resonant frequency. When your heart goes into this frequency, it has an energy field that is stronger than that of the brain and any other organ. In fact, in this frequency, the heart has a force field that can be measured from 12 feet away. It’s a healing rhythm and the other body systems, as well as anyone in your little field, will pick up and benefit from it. Cool, huh? With regular use, you’re supposed to be able to train your nervous system to get your heart into this state. I leave New Waves Wellness Center feeling relaxed, renewed and hopeful that I might be able to chill and let the goodness flow my way now that my polarities are fixed and my heart is doing its thing. Dare I say I feel positive? Yeah, I think I’m feeling positive. It kind of freaks me out.

ONO KINEGRINDS

BY ANTHONY PIGNATARO ANTHONY@MAUITIME.COM

Eating Healthy Must it cost so much? Sitting in one of the few chairs along the wall at Joy’s Place in Kihei, I’m trying to figure out how to get my mouth around a Hummus Avocado Vegetable sandwich. It’s nothing more than lettuce, tomato, onion, grated carrot, clover sprouts and avocado stuffed between two slices of soft herb bread with hummus and veganaise, and yet it’s massive. Everything in it is organic—grown in toxin-free soil without pesticide spraying. I finally succeed, and it tastes wonderful. Served by itself on a paper plate with no bag of chips or side order of potato-mac salad, the sandwich costs $8.80. Joy’s even more delicious Indo Crunch Wrap, which is either a collard green or rice wrapper concealing baked tempeh slathered in an Asian peanut sauce with cabbage, more grated carrot, red pepper slivers and sprouts, runs $9.60. Eating healthy seems expensive these days—far more so than a fast food “combo meal” that, while filling, offers much more sugar, salt, fat and calories than a person should consume

in, oh, about a month. On the mainland, the grocery store Whole Foods Market, Inc. has turned healthy food into big business, with more than 180 outlets and $1.6 billion in gross profits. “For the price of the fixings for a modest family dinner at Whole Foods, you could just about afford one share of its stock,” wrote Steven Shapin in the May 15, 2006 New Yorker (Whole Foods stock stood at $62.49 a share when Shapin wrote that sentence—today it hovers around $45). “Given the way the world now is, sustainably grown and locally produced organic food is expensive. Genetically modified, industrially produced monocultural corn is what feeds the victims of an African famine, not the gorgeous organic technicolor Swiss chard from your local farmers’ market.” After I finished my Hummus Avocado Vegetable sandwich, I asked Joy White,

who has run Joy’s Place for the last seven years, why healthy food costs more than unhealthy food. She believes a lot of the reason has to do with quantity. “Basic [organic] foodstuffs in reality don’t cost that much more,” she said. “But prepared food costs are higher because of the quantities that are produced. They are not made as much as others.” In other words, a lot more people these days eat food made at McDonald’s—food that’s been “mass-produced,” as White said—than at a small independently owned and operated shop that deals almost exclusively with

organically grown vegetables. White says she gets her carrots, potatoes and onions from the mainland— with their added shipping costs—while the lettuce, sprouts and herbs are locally grown. Overall, she says about 75 percent of her food comes from the mainland, with the rest Maui-grown. But there is progress. Take the collard green a customer can ask for in their Indo Crunch Wrap. White used to get them on the mainland, but now orders straight from the local company Sweet Kula. Getting food locally isn’t just a matter of decreased costs, though it is true that shipping processed, preservative-laden food is cheaper and easier than organic vegetables. Thirty years ago, when people really started thinking about healthier diets, “organic” meant understanding where your food comes from. “The more connections you have with the people supplying you—that will affect the food,” White said. “We do know some of our suppliers, and it does make a contribution to the flavor. “I think health is much more simple than the market wants us to believe,” she continued. “It’s open minds, open hearts. Thinking positively and feeling love. You don’t need to make it much more complex than that.” MTW

Carnaval! Saturday (Jan. 27), 9:30 p.m. at Queen Ka`ahumanu Center Court [PARTY/FUNDRAISER] Oh, the masks! The beads! The music! The oh-soBrazilian rump shaking! Traditionally, Carnaval is an event celebrating the beginning of Lent—that time when Catholics say adios to bodily pleasures. So, in essence, Carnaval is a celebration of those pleasures (you know, before giving them up), as well as a celebration of self-expression, empowerment and all things that glitter. Here on Maui, we’ll be helping to celebrate this cultural phenomenon with a Carnaval of our own. There’ll be a live performance by Maui’s own Samba band, Banda Dende, as well as Brazilian dancers and a Carnaval parade. This event is to benefit the Maui Academy of Performing Arts (MAPA) in continuing with its training and programs for children and adults. Tickets: $25 in advance, $35 at door, includes free mask and beads. 21 and over, with nohost food and drinks. There is also an elite pre-Carnaval party in MAPA’s Steppingstone Playhouse at 7:30 p.m. Tickets: $75, which include admission to the main Carnaval party. Tickets available at customer service kiosk or online at mauiacademy.org or by calling 244-8760. [SAMANTHA CAMPOS]

ThIS WEEK’S PICKS by Samantha Campos

Get Drunk and Local Friday (Jan. 26), 10 p.m. at Casanova’s [CONTEMPORARY HAWAIIAN/REGGAE /SOUL] When I get drunk I morph into a 300-pound Hawaiian male. Really what it makes me is a scrawny hapa-haole chick with an identity crisis. Regardless, it means two things: I start digging local music and hot women. On Friday, I’ll be staggering around Casanova’s jamming to local bands Deziyah, Dezmon and Unified Soul. I’m especially stoked on Unified Soul. The lead singer, Tiare Johnson has great range and stage presence. “Unified Soul got together to combine the talents that we’ve been blessed with so we could share our love of music with an already talented musical state,” said Johnson. Ah. I love a humble musician. Check them out and I’ll check you out. Sorry, boys, it’s my own little ladies night Friday. Cover $5. Call 5720220. [LILIANA BEGLEY]

[ELECTRONIC MUSIC] Followers of Bassnectar are quite passionate about the vibrational pollen this DJ spins. Lorin Ashton, a.k.a. Bassnectar, has continually been voted #1 DJ in his hometown, San Francisco. He says his moniker, Bassnectar, represents an amalgamation of every sound he’s ever heard, “mixed with ultra wicked basslines.” This subsequent Bassnectar sound includes (but is not limited to) “breakbeat, drum ‘n bass, trip hop, glitch hop, whisky, wanderlust, parody, gangsta rap, ‘60s devotional space rock, dancehall, raga, Balkan, raw grinding boom shaka laka and an eclectic obsession with endlessness…” Or, as All Music Guide states: “A kaleidoscopically brilliant funk conception.” Tickets: $15 presale, $20 at door.

Sunday (Ja.n. 28), 9a.m. at Maui Raceway Park [SCCA SOLO II RACING] Let’s say you drive a Porsche—or even a Ford Escort. Let’s say you want to test your car’s cornering limits, and you have the driving skills to do it. Let’s say that you probably aren’t interested in speeding tickets, never mind possible jail time, for that matter. Good news! The Maui SCCA has a venue for you to act out your Mario Andretti fantasies. All you need is a car, a Snell 95 approved helmet, and be willing to help out during the heats you’re not racing. Oh, and a little money—$20 for SCCA members and $25 for non-members. The racing track is determined by traffic cones, within the confines of the Maui Race Park area. Drivers run individually during the timed single lap. Admission: $5-$25. Go to mauiscca.org directions and more information. [KEITH BENEDICT]

For more than two decades, these New Orleans natives have been jamming out in every musical genre possible, all mixed together. The Radiators radiate positive energy with that old school jazzy sound you can only find in musicians from the south. They call it “funky fish head music.” I don’t know what it means but it sounds like a delicious Filipino dish! Tickets: $50, $45, $35. Call 242-7469. [HEIDI KING]

FILMCRITIQUE

BY COLE SMITHEY COLE@MAUITIME.COM

Penthouse Bloodbath Joe Carnahan’s mad hit man/woman movie Writer/director Joe Carnahan (Blood, Guts, Bullets and Octane) makes an overreaching but inspired effort at reinventing the dumb gangsters with big guns motif that Quentin Tarantino created and continues to modify. On a certain level, Smokin’ Aces is like watching a Robert Altman action movie fueled by steroids and caffeine.

Smokin’ Aces

★★★★★ Rated R/108 mins.

A couple of dozen colorful and violent characters converge on Lake Tahoe’s Nomad casino where Las Vegas illusionist-turned-mob wannabe Buddy “Aces” Israel (Jeremy Piven) waits, sequestered in a heavily guarded penthouse suite, to turn state’s evidence on Mafia kingpin Primo Sparazza (Joseph Ruskin). An erroneous rumor quickly spreads through the underworld that Sparazza has put a $1,000,000 hit out on Aces, and several groups of amateur and professional hit men (and women) take the bait. FBI agents Donald Carruthers (Ray Liotta) and Richard Messner (Ryan Reynolds) are dispatched to help protect Aces from the onslaught, and arrive not knowing that an infiltration of killers has already arrived that will

put an X over many an eye before the truth of Primo Sparazza is exposed. Assassin broker Loretta Wyman (Davenia McFadden) relates her laconic description of Georgia Sykes (Alicia Keys) and her lesbian girlfriend Sharice Watters (Taraji Henson—Hustle & Flow) to the feisty soul sisters in a diner scene that dips its toe into Tarantino’s territory of tangy exposition. Carnahan’s razor-sharp postmodern dialogue infects the movie with an entertaining repartee that sizzles. For as amusing as it is to see Carnahan’s cartoon assassins clash in an inevitable barrage of bullets that penetrate windows and Kevlar alike, the main glory is in the build-up. Scene-stealer Jason Bateman milks the comedy as quack attorney Rupert “Rip” Reed, an overtly self-deprecating masturbation addict with a fetish for rabbit costumes and panties. Reed hires slimy Las Vegas bail bondsman Jack Dupree (Ben Affleck) and his partners, an ex-vice cop Pete Deeks (Peter Berg) and Deeks’ disinterested former partner Hollis, to catch Aces for bail jumping. The three characters are immediately familiar as marginally bad guys that we can root for. But Carnahan dodges expectation and throws in the first plot surprise of many. Only one of the trio will make it to the end of the story, albeit a few fingers short of the number that he started out with. Although surrounded by a seemingly countless number of well drawn supporting characters Jeremy Piven’s Aces anchors the frenetic action swirling around him. Aces spends what he knows

Smokin’ are his last hours habitually practicing with a deck of cards when he isn’t tossing out and ordering up more prostitutes and snorting copious amounts of cocaine. Piven’s sleight-of-hand work with cards is impressive and the actor blithely uses his character’s dexterous skill to punctuate convoluted conversations with his right and left hand men Sir Ivy (Common) and Hugo (Joel Edgerton). He doesn’t merely give himself over to the part, but he invigorates the character with a pulsing rhythm of narcotic-driven emotion that ebbs and flows creating pools of tangible sensation. Whether the drugs on Carnahan’s set were real or not matters little because Piven regulates every second of his dynamic performance to good effect.

Smokin’ Aces is an energetic action movie with more than a few genuine surprises, coupled with notable ensemble performances. Carnahan was originally due to direct Mission Impossible: III but was unceremoniously taken off of the project before it went into production. It’s a shame really because he would certainly have taken the franchise to an even darker and more exposed place than J.J. Abrams was willing to go with the script. Nonetheless, Carnahan is a force of nature as a writer and director, and his ability to extract remarkable performances from his actors is consistently evident. Ray Liotta, who did terrific work on Carnahan’s Narc, adds palpably with an expressive performance as a FBI agent on his last big mission. MTW

MAUI TIME WEEKLY

I felt like I had known her for years. But actually, I had met Helen Kritzler, a.k.a. Haiku Helen, many years ago when she was reading palms in a side room at the old Miracles Bookstore in Makawao. I had gone in mainly out of curiosity, but also because I was at crossroads in my career—as in, I didn’t really have one. “Oh, really? I usually remember palms, not faces,” she half-joked. “What did I tell you back then?” At the time, I was working at a resort and held a sorely neglected degree in biology. I knew I was meant to do something else but just wasn’t sure where to go. Helen told me about some aspects of my character—some I knew and some I hadn’t yet recognized—that might help my direction. She also described the environment where I would be working, which eerily resembles the Maui Time offices of today. And I told her so. “Oh good,” she said, eyes twinkling. The esoteric art of palmistry—also called chiromancy or palm reading—might date as far back as the Stone Age. But popular belief is that it originated in India 3,000 years ago as a means for character analysis and counseling. Palmists believe that by studying the lines, mounts, shapes and other markings of our hands, they can assess emotional tendencies, social attitudes, past experiences and possibly where you’re headed. These days, palmistry is often considered a pseudoscience and is combined with psychology, holistic healing and divination. Helen’s great grandfather Yechiel, a rabbi and scholar of the Kabala, was a very serious man who studied everything, including hand analysis. One day, when Helen’s mother Gertrude was very young, Yechiel took her palm and read it. And the cycle began. “My mother was this wild woman,” Helen said. “She was an intellectual, and was fascinated with these arts. She was a person who naturally understood other people. She would create such an atmosphere when she read palms, she’d tell stories and I would sit at her knee and absorb it all. Then she’d send me books. She ended up doing handwriting analysis.” Helen says she began reading palms professionally 40 years ago when she was in college. She became a computer programmer for Atari, and still incorporates her love of science into her palmistry practice, often referencing books and theories to her clients. And for over 20 years, she’s been doing Tibetan Buddhist practice with Vajrayogini. “You need a psychic aspect—it’s very important with palmistry,” she said. “Buddhist meditation

allows me to see deeper. When you meditate, you quiet your mind. You really have to be a clear vessel. I can hear other people thinking! I think we’re all psychics. We can be trained to have this ability. I’m more of an empathic. My mother was more judgmental—but very loving. She hadn’t developed the psychic ability as much as I have.” Helen says that most people go to her when, like me, when they really need to clarify for themselves which way they want to go. She believes palmistry shows the path and what they need to do to fulfill their life’s purpose. Not just one thing they were meant to do, but something they need to do to feel complete. “People come to me also because they’re devastated by an emotional situation—a break-up, they’ve lost their job, something really traumatic,” she said. “I’m able to allow them to view that experience in such a way as to show them why they had to go through that. I can be in that situation with them. I’m no young chickadee—I have really experienced a huge realm so I can understand a lot.” Of course, everybody wants to know about love and career. Some people are also just really curious. “It’s very important because in this culture, we get jealous of other people,” Helen said. “We have so many choices—we can change anything about who we are physically or even with our personality. But that’s not satisfying. Becoming who you are is more satisfying. What you emphasize is what you see. My readings are always inspirational.” Helen says it’s sometimes difficult when people come with a specific question they want answered, like “Will I meet my love?” She says often the real question is really underneath. She believes that there may be difficult things to say, but they can be wonderful if said in the right way. It’s all part of why Helen enjoys reading palms. “Why do I do it? It is so much fun,” Helen said. “There’s not anything not relevant to what I do—I can study everything. It’s so intimate. I get high from doing readings. I feel better, they feel better— the world feels better. I always say, ‘There’s nobody happier than Santa Claus.’ Giving is what makes you happy. It’s a chance to be part of somebody’s life and that’s wonderful.” For more information or to schedule an appointment, visit online at www.haikuhelen.com or call 573-6343. MTW

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) You think you’re an astute observer of human behavior. But at the next dinner party, watch out for whatever’s happening beneath the table, instead of above it. There are secrets being played out right in front of you, just out of sight. You wouldn’t necessarily feel betrayed if you knew them (although you might); I suggest you seek to discover them not to right some wrong underway, but rather because knowing what’s going on, in this case, is a lot more fun than not knowing.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) It’s been ages since I last suggested you go on a plate-smashing spree, but I think this week might be a good one for exactly that. Going to town on a stack of ceramic plates would have a triple purpose: Not only is it incredibly satisfying and fun, but it would also serve to wake you up out of the spiritual slump you’ve been in. All that noise might wake someone else, too. See who comes along to investigate, and how they react. At least one of them is likely to be a kindred spirit you’d love to meet.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) I know Rams who’ve let their carefree natures, generosity, and occasionally foolish choices drag them deep into dire circumstances. Your decisions this week could lead to an intensification of your current state; if you’re poor already, I’d suggest, just this once, reconsidering them. I think as a general rule it’s best to err on the side of generosity, excitement and enjoyment of life. This week, however, the cautious, most responsible choice might be the best one.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) Don’t just sit there and stare at a blank page (or its equivalent). Your problem lately is that you have spent too much time waiting for inspiration, not realizing that it doesn’t come frequently or consistently enough to constitute a proper career, creative or otherwise. Most successful artists have realized, at some point, that it’s best to simply get down to work, do the best they can, and enjoy inspiration when it miraculously strikes, instead of waiting with bated breath for it to arrive. Isn’t it about time you realized it, too?

What’s a Freudian slip, after all? It’s usually just something you say by accident because you’re distracted, with often-comic results. It doesn’t necessarily mean anything. This week, however, your slips of the tongue might strike closer to home. They might, for example, reveal your true desires, ones you’ve kept hidden from even yourself. They might be nothing, but it’s still probably worth your while to listen. Could they be messages from yourself to yourself? If so, what are you going to do about them?

33 N. Market St. Ste. 201, Wailuku

Once you let someone inside that formidable shell of yours, it’s quite easy to want to lay claim to them somehow. It took so much work to get them there that you’re loath to let them leave. However, it’s just that intensity which is most likely to scare off those who are close enough to get a good look at it. It takes incredible bravery to truly let go and trust that someone will stick around, yet I’m afraid you’ve got to find the courage to do exactly that. Your alternative, after all, is crap: trying desperately to keep your grip while they run for their lives.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) Leos have a marvelous capacity to influence the world around them. It can lead, however, to a bad habit of walking into a situation, and instead of simply accepting it as it is, changing things around to suit their own taste, needs and opinions. You might have better ideas about room layout and interior design, but if you start rearranging your new roommates’ furniture the night you move in, they probably won’t take kindly to it. Tread carefully, Leo. Just because you have the power to change the world around you doesn’t mean you should always use it.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) Your lust for efficiency means you sorely resent it whenever you have to do something that’s not an especially fruitful use of your time. Nevertheless, since the world isn’t populated entirely by Virgos, it means you’ll have to endure countless hours of this kind of thing. You can mitigate it somewhat by multitasking—making phone calls while waiting in line, for example—but that’s not really the best solution. You don’t have to milk every minute for its maximum productivity, you know. Try another angle, one that’s just as much a challenge, but probably more achievable: milk every moment for its maximum enjoyability, instead.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) At the Cut and Paste live competitions, designers use their computers and artistic skills to generate designs on a given theme in real-time, while their works-in-progress are beamed onto screens for an audience to enjoy. Their work is influenced by audience reactions in the same way a DJ’s mixing might be based on the dancing and enthusiasm of those listening. You, too. could bring more people into the loneliest aspects of your existence, probably in a way that enriches all of you. Why not give it a try?

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) Distance makes the heart grow fonder, as they say. It works as well when the distance consists of time rather than space; it’s easy to romanticize your memories, for example, and fall in love with a mentally edited version of someone you once knew, even if you didn’t adore them back when you knew them. Beware of self-delusion this week, as your potential to fool yourself is at a yearlong high. This could be dangerous not only for you and your (surprisingly tender) heart, but also for whomever you’re fooling yourself about.

Eschew snobbery—this week and every week. Think of those beautiful people who aren’t aware of how gorgeous they are; they’ll flirt with anyone, because the concept of “out of their league” hasn’t even crossed their minds. Those who’ve become aware of their cuteness, however, often display that awareness in unattractive ways. You’re not naturally snobby. But you’re in danger of crossing that line, based on your charm, good looks, intelligence, experience or whatever. Remember to keep it cool; yeah, you’re great. So is everyone else. Whether you can appreciate what they’ve got to offer, or not—that’s your problem.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) I see so many Capricorns defeated by shyness and insecurity. The fact is, most people are somewhat shy and somewhat insecure. Someone’s going to have to make the first move eventually, if anything’s going to happen. Assess the likelihood that it’ll be the other person; it’s very improbable. That leaves you. Be realistic about the situation. Your two choices are: 1. Wait and see, but end up with only disappointment, because nothing will happen. 2. Go for it. This could, of course, go either way. But as it’s the only option that even allows the possibility of something fantastic and inspiring to occur. Locate your chutzpah and use it.

Dr. Michael Ra Bouchard runs the Aloha Sexual Health and Happiness Center on the Big Island. On his website Bouchard says, “Sexuality is not just something which we do, but it rather a core aspect of who we are, for its subtle—and at times not so subtle—‘primary directive’ is deftly woven throughout our entire being.” I recently decided to get the lowdown on sexual health and talked to the acclaimed sexologist by phone.

MAUI TIME WEEKLY: Why did you become a sexologist? MICHAEL RA BOUCHARD: GRID—Gay Related Immune Deficiency—or the beginning of AIDS is really why I became a sexologist. I was a heterosexual male living in New Orleans, watching all my gay friends die. So I became a volunteer for HIV/AIDS prevention. I needed to attempt to understand the behavior of what I was happening. I realized then that AIDS was more than just a gay disease. For the first 10 years of my work, that’s what I focused on. What city has the healthiest sex?

BIO-BEETLE.com 808-873-6121

Sodom and Gomorrah—do those count? Haha! Hmm… I don’t know if I can answer that. Fascinating. San Francisco popped into my head, it’s a bastion of liberalism and open-mindedness but… If you asked me what country—the Dutch, Holland, are the most open-minded, tolerant people. They’re not only sexually, but socially very highminded beings. The Netherlands, Holland, Sweden, Scandinavia… Some of the best porno came out of those countries. It’s not just prurient sex, but they also have a healthy overall attitude about sex. The most repressed and distorted view of sex is in America. We were founded by freaks who were literally kicked out Europe and came here with this hardcore distortion about sexuality. We have a very schizophrenic view of sex here. Not really a healthy, loving view. It’s also due to a lack of sex education. What are the most common problems you hear? I suppose the main thing folks call me about is that somehow at some place in their life they’re not happy, not feeling fulfilled with some aspect of their relationship. My work is about having more of what they want and less of what they don’t, according to their values. Whether it’s in love, sex, their relationship or marriage. Let’s be frank, people only call as a last resort. I always say, “If not now, when?” When I was in Manhattan, people would say, “I saw your ad five years ago, but I thought it would get better.” So they try to solve their problems on their own, or through friends, books, until the pain of not doing something finally becomes greater than the pain of doing it. Sometimes they ask, “When do you know it’s time to move on?” Essentially when you’ve done everything you can. Is it harmful to you? Is your partner open and willing to address it? Sex is kind of nature’s way of hypnotizing us, but that so-called honeymoon period, maybe six months to a year or two, goes from passionate to compassionate. Sex is 10 percent of what I do, the rest addresses the relationship with yourself, your partner and life in general. I call it the holy trinity of head, heart and crotch—I am a recovering Catholic. The most common question is “Am I normal?” [Alfred] Kinsey said the abnormal sex act is the one that can’t be performed. The church gets involved with “natural” or procreative, basically straight intercourse between a man and woman, so that according to church, everything else becomes abnormal. We get sexually repressed shortly after birth. But you can’t deny our biological aspect. We’re human animals. However, being gonad-driven all your life isn’t the ultimate goal—we want to integrate our Chakras. And it begins with accepting ourselves and sex—expressing it in a congruent manner. I’m now one of the third generation sexologists. Our philosophy is we’re here to observe and essentially assist people in being able to have more of what they want without imposing our values on them. I work with fundamental Christians, half a dozen at least a year. They call me, I give them picture books, help them understand the mechanics and tell them, “It’s okay, Jesus wants you to have sex!” For more info, visit Dr. Michael’s website at www.sexhappiness.com or email sexdoc@aloha.net. Samantha Campos is preparing to be spanked on the Point 101.1 FM Friday night during the “Monkey Spankers” show and hopes Motobabe will show some mercy.
