There seems to be no news coverage of the bones excavated from the new Kapalua timeshare job site (The Maui 10, Feb. 8, 2007). Remembering the Honolulu Wal-Mart flack, I wonder why this isn’t newsworthy. The Ritz, I’m told, is moving its swimming pool area closer to the ocean. This is nearer the area where hundreds of bodies were exhumed in the past, and cause of much turmoil with the local community. The locals aren’t going to sit around while corporations try to slide their plans over anyone’s dead body!

-Wayne Cochran, Lahaina

BLUE EARTH RESPONDS In response to Mr. Lance Holter’s [letter to the editor] in the Maui Time Weekly of March 1, 2007, BlueEarth Biofuels takes Mr. Holter’s concerns very seriously and he might be surprised to know that we agree with much of what he says.

BlueEarth Biofuels has from the beginning been committed to encouraging locally produced oil crops for refining to biodiesel as soon as it becomes available and will use palm, canola or soybean oil from sustainable sources until local crops can be grown here as a feedstock.

Our biodiesel sales agreement with Maui Electric Company will specify that all biodiesel they receive come from feedstocks grown on sustainable lands.

To ensure that these oils are sourced from sustainable and nondeforested lands, we are developing a sourcing model in conjunction with a prominent international natural resources watch group. The first step in this process is defining exactly what “sustainable” palm oil really means.

Once this definition is developed, made public and approved by our major customer, MECO, the policy will be specified to our vegetable oil suppliers. Our palm oil suppliers will be required to show a clear, auditable trail to the lands where the feedstock was produced, to ensure that BlueEarth complies with the terms of our sales agreement with Maui Electric.

In this way, vegetable oils will be fully traceable to their source of origin. If palm oil from non-deforested and sustainable agriculture is ultimately not attainable or available, soybean and canola oils will alternately be used from North and South America, until locally grown agricultural feedstock becomes available.

It has been well publicized that a Biofuels Trust will be organized as an integral part of the plan for the Maui biodiesel refinery and will be funded

by HECO’s share of the project profits.

The purpose of the Biofuels Trust is to encourage locally produced feedstocks for biofuels. Funding could be provided for bio-crop research and development at the University of Hawai`i, provide price supports for Hawaiian grown bio-crops, and for development of non-profit crushing facilities for use by local oil crop farmers among others.

The board of the Biofuels Trust will have representatives from the State of Hawai`i, HECO/MECO and local agriculture. In short, the public will be well represented.

In turn, the Biofuels Trust will be represented on the board of directors of the project company, BlueEarth Maui Biodiesel. It is worth reiterating, HECO will not realize any profit from this project.

With the development of the biodiesel facility on Maui, a ready market for locally produced oils will finally be available.

At present no such market exists to encourage local farmers to risk planting oil crops. It may take three to six years to develop Hawaiian feedstock crops once local growers are convinced that there is a real and viable local end-market for their bio-crops. As noted, BlueEarth is committed to local feedstocks, as is Maui Electric Company.

Contrary to Mr. Holter’s contention, BlueEarth Biofuels has never requested money, investment or financial assistance from the State of Hawai`i for this project.

Our project already has secured conditional financing approval from two large lending institutions. Because our unique “open-book” biodiesel pricing structure passes all production cost savings directly to Maui Electric (and ultimately the rate payer), we are seeking lower interest rate bonds for the project in the form of Hawai`i Special Revenue Bonds.

Although the State of Hawai`i must approve these Special Revenue Bonds, the state is not providing any funding or investment to our project and neither the taxpayer nor the state must repay this debt financing which BlueEarth secures directly through the private bond brokerage industry.

Biodiesel has the potential to greatly reduce greenhouse gas output emissions in combustion engines (as compared to petroleum diesel) by more than 50 percent. These significant positive air quality improvements can only be realized in the near-term, and at an economically viable price, via a locally situated, state-of-the art, efficient, large scale privately funded biodiesel facility such as this project will provide on Maui.

Waiting for local agricultural businesses to unilaterally risk developing substantial bio-crops before adequate biofuels production capabilities are online seems unreasonable. This project provides for a cleaner environment, responsible feedstock sourcing, totally transparent

MAUICOUNTY biodiesel pricing at capped profits, highpaying local jobs, a privately funded local agricultural bio-crop stimulus mechanism, and a much clearer path to Hawaiian petroleum independence… all within a few years.

Finally, in announcing the project, we said that BlueEarth will work diligently with other local biodiesel and ethanol producers to encourage increased local biofuels production, greater efficiency and lower pricing.

Potentially, shared raw materials purchasing, joint land use, and using locally produced ethanol and methanol in our own process are a few of the ways we can further stimulate the local biofuels industry.

We said then and we say now this is intended to be a win-win for Maui, Hawai`i and our company.

Public Trust Is it finally time for publicly funded elections in Hawai`i?

During his Feb. 21 “Focus Green” lecture at the Maui Arts & Cultural Center, Robert Kennedy Jr. said campaign reform is one way we can help the environment. “Teddy Roosevelt said that America would never be destroyed by a foreign power but he warned that our political institutions, our democratic institutions, would be subverted by malefactors of great wealth, who would erode them from within,” Kennedy said. Spoken a century ago by one of America’s greatest conservationists, Roosevelt’s astute observations reflect our political reality today.

In fact, Hawai`i voters apparently feel corruption is as much a part of campaigns as sign waving and vague promises. A 2004 statewide survey by the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) revealed 81 percent of state voters agree that politicians become obligated to campaign donors and campaign contributions influence policies supported by elected officials. A further 82 percent think changes are needed when it comes to the way election campaigns are financed in the state.

Richard S. Miller, professor of law emeritus at the University of Hawai`i, believes the state is especially vulnerable to the economic and financial influence and control of wealthy businesses. Through his career teaching law at the William S. Richardson School of Law at U.H. Manoa, and his involvement with the legislative process, Miller has seen the corruption first-hand. “Our geographical isolation from the rest of the nation puts us at the mercy of the large companies who control the market because of lack of competition,” he said.

Miller believes Hawai`i voters have lost faith in the political system.

“Hawai`i needs a public campaign funding bill that will allow candidates for political office to finance their campaigns without donations from powerful businesses,” he said.

Voter Owned Hawai`i is working to pass such legislation. Their “Clean Elections” companion bills—HB661 and SB 1068—provide a comprehensive public funding option for political campaigns throughout the state. “Our bill would have huge impacts on Hawai`i politics,” said Kory Payne, a community organizer for Voter Owned Hawai`i.

The bill will give political candidates running in county council races

Theo Kim, Jason Abe and Matt Stutts of Voter Owned Hawai`i the opportunity to qualify for full public funding, which should end the candidates’ reliance on special interest campaign cash. Instead of spending countless hours wheeling and dealing for campaign contributions, candidates can spend time learning which issues are actually important to their constituents.

If elected, they can consider legislation based on merits without worrying whether they are pleasing special interest lobbyists and wealthy donors. “Clean Elections is proven reform that puts voters in control of elections,” Payne said.

Arizona, Connecticut, Maine, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, Vermont, Albuquerque, New Mexico and Portland, Oregon all have comprehensive public campaign programs. Since passing Clean Election legislation, these areas are seeing record numbers of voters returning to the polls. For Hawai`i— the state with the lowest voter participation in the United States—this would be a welcome change.

Full public campaign funding is also breaking down financial barriers that historically kept woman and minorities from entering politics because many cannot financially compete in the “pay-to-play” political system. Eventually, as in Arizona, Voter Owned Hawai`i wants political candidates in all races to have the access to the fund.

Though Hawai`i currently has a Partial Public Funding system, it does not effectively allow candidates to compete with privately funded candidates. “The Clean Elections option offers candidates enough funds to actually win cam-

paigns,” Payne said.

The amount a county council candidate will receive in 2008 will be determined by averaging what it cost to win a council race in 2004 and 2006. If a publicly funded candidate is being outspent by privately funded candidates, they can receive “equalizing funds” that will level the playing field.

In order to qualify for the full campaign funding, candidates must collect 200 qualifying contributions of $5 from registered voters in their districts. Once a candidate qualifies, they cannot accept money from private donors and their campaign spending is strictly regulated, documented and available for public scrutiny.

Money for the program will come not from taxes, but the Hawai`i Election Fund, which currently holds more than $5 million, or from the state’s Unclaimed Property Fund, which generates over $8 million per year for the state.

Maui Sierra Club chairman Lance Holter believes any bill that starts the discussion on campaign finance reform is important and should be encouraged.

“A candidate who could honestly say they took no money from big corporations would have a great political advantage,” he said. “Imagine if politicians didn’t have to spend their valuable time raising money but could focus on the public trust instead. Wow, would we get some things accomplished.”

Through the Looking Glass Hawai`i’s Legislature demystified

MARCH 8, 2007

Reward All Lloyd Yamamoto asked for was a reward for doing the right thing. But no.

“But I don’t want to go among mad people,” Alice remarked.

“Oh, you can’t help that,” said the Cheshire Cat: “we’re all mad here.

I’m mad. You’re mad.”

“How do you know I’m mad?” said Alice.

“You must be,” said the Cat, “or you wouldn’t have come here.”

-Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland Beginning in mid January, the state Legislature is a blur of activity until the session ends in early May. With some 2,000 bills introduced yearly to both the Senate and the state House of Representatives, the pace is often as frantic as that of the White Rabbit in Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland. To the average citizen trying to make some sense of it all, the whole affair may appear as confusing as the adventures of poor Alice, with a cast of characters nearly as odd.

“The legislative process in a nutshell is, introduce all this great stuff, bust `okole, then you lose,” one legislative veteran recently told me.

Though the deck may seem to be stacked against successful public participation, there are opportunities for input as this year’s legislative session nears that mid-point known as “crossover.” It’s at this juncture that bills that have survived committee review are passed from the House to the Senate and vice versa. In the end, some will survive and become new laws. Unless, of course, the Queen of Hearts—that would be Governor Linda Lingle—decides to veto.

With such a myriad of proposed new legislation, how can the average person keep track?

One way is to use the state web link at www.capitol.hawaii.gov. Here you can search for key words to find a bill, check the wording of a bill and monitor its progress with committee reports and voting records.

Another strategy is to find a watchdog individual or organization and ask to be placed on their e-mail alert list.

Hearings don’t need to post agendas seven days in advance, as is the case with County Council and most other public assemblies. Thus, early notification is crucial for those wishing to provide testimony or appear in person.

GMO Free Maui, for instance, has a link at the bottom of their webpage to all bills concerning Genetically

LC Watch The owner of Lloyd’s Kahului Chevron, Yamamoto was up before the Maui County Liquor Control Adjudication Board on Mar. 1. The sole charge against him was one count of serving alcohol to an undercover minor in a sting operation that had taken place in June 2006.

To that he pled no contest. “My employee made a mistake,” he told the board. He told them that he tries to keep after his five cashiers the best he can, making sure they card anyone who looks under 21. But then he said something else: “I just got stung a few weeks ago, too.”

Where all the magic happens

The board members looked at each other in shock. You’re telling us about how you’re trying to train your people, and they sold liquor to another undercover minor?

“Oh no,” he said. “We passed.

Don’t we get a reward?”

Modified Organisms. These include bills on notification and risk assessment, liability, prohibition of both GMO coffee and taro and labeling for GMO fish.

A citizen’s chances against well-funded industry lobbyists—like those who work for GMO-manufacturer Monsanto—is akin to Alice playing croquet with a flamingo mallet while using a hedgehog for a ball. Things keep getting curiouser and curiouser.

Take House Bill 702 for example, which sought to require an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for Hawaii Superferry. I say, “sought”, in the past tense, because this bill is dead as a doorknob. Maui’s Rep. Joe Souki let it die by merely refusing to hear it as Chair of the Transportation Committee.

The Senate’s version of the bill, SB 1276, was amended this week. Backers diluted it by removing any specific mention to “Hawaii Superferry,” with it now instead merely targeting Department of Transportation projects over a million dollars. Though the Senate’s bill is likely to survive and cross over to the House, Souki could once again act as the Queen’s Executioner, and cry, “Off with her head!”

Souki’s stated reasons that a judge and the feds said an EIS isn’t needed are factually incorrect, but my guess is he won’t let logic and reason get in the way, any more than he would pay attention to thousands of petition signatures and County Council resolutions from three islands, all

MAUI TIME WEEKLY

calling for an EIS. Should we blame Souki? After all, he is one of only six legislators who received campaign donations ($1,000) from Hawaii Superferry, Inc. Should we blame the process? Elections are part of the process, and last time around Maui County had a mere 34 percent of registered voters show up to vote. It just took 1,900 votes to send Souki back to the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party.

Maui residents may take interest in specific issues, from changing the processes that have led to stymieing efforts for a second medical facility (HB 1067, SB 1792), to revamping the process see LOOKING GLASS, page 13

The rest of the board looked relieved. Then board member Donald Fujii turned to LC Director Franklyn Silva. “Doesn’t the department send out letters?” he asked.

“We used to,” Silva said. “But then we’d find that the very next week they’d get stung.”

Visibly embarrassed, Fujii than told Yamamoto something lame about how maybe he as the store owner could reward his employee for successfully evading a sting, but it was clear Fujii thought it a right good idea for the department to give out some kind of reward.

Silva compared the practice to a police officer waiting at a stop sign and then handed out special certificates to people who obeyed the law, but that’s not quite right—police officers don’t send secret squads into traffic asking drivers if they’d like to run stop signs.

DAM PROBLEMS Looks like state lawmakers are finally trying to pass new safety laws governing dams across Hawaii. And it’s ridiculously hard for big dam owners like A&B to argue against such laws, which will require them to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars in improvements, given that some of their own dams hold scary “High Hazard” designations. Still, they’re making a go of it. Criticizing the latest bill before the state House of Representatives, A&B’s Paul Oshiro testified that his own company is already monitoring its dams and doesn’t need to face any more expensive regulation. “Dams and reservoirs that have been abandoned or are not actively used on a regular basis are more likely to be of concern than those which are actively used and monitored,” Oshiro said in his testimony, according to the Feb. 22 Honolulu Advertiser.

True enough, but considering last year’s death toll, it’s not likely state lawmakers will sympathize. MTW

ROUNDUP THE TERMINATOR? Huge move up the chart this week for Monsanto, which is mostly due to the rising grassroots wrath directed against it for an impending merger. “The Center for Food Safety today called on the Justice Department to ‘unconditionally oppose’ the ‘ill-conceived’ merger of Monsanto and the Delta and Pine Land Company (DPL),” read a Feb. 22 press release from the Center. As things stand now, DPL sells more than half of the cotton in the U.S. and is, according to the Center, the “only major cotton seed firm” not yet selling genetically modified organisms (GMOs). “The proposed merger poses a profound threat to U.S. cotton farms,” Center Executive Director Andrew Kimbrell said in the release. “It will create a virtual monopoly in biotech cotton, meaning higher seed prices and fewer seed choices for farmers.” Monsanto, of course, sees things a hair differently. “Delta and Pine Land represents an excellent fit for our company as we look to bring value-added traits and high-quality seed to cotton growers around the world,” Hugh Grant, Monsanto’s chairman, president and chief executive officer said in an Aug. 16, 2006 press release. “Delta and Pine Land has strong cotton genetics, and we believe Monsanto’s leadership in providing the best cotton traits can improve on this already strong base.” Man, gotta love them traits. Anyway, if the merger goes through—and considering the pro-business types running the relevant federal regulatory agencies, why shouldn’t it?—Monsanto will end up dominating virtually all GMO and non-GMO cotton in the U.S. Sound like fun to you?

COCONUT WIRELESS THE WEEK IN REVIEW

WEDNESDAY, Feb. 28 Good news for county firefighter Uilani-Manu Gomes. Named Fire Department Employee of the Year— and one of the subjects of Maui Time’s Nov. 16, 2006 cover story “Hot Chicks: What it takes to be a female firefighter on Maui”—Gomes gets a big award from VFW Post 3850 this weekend.

Now we don’t want to seem nitpicking about this, but in our humble opinion county Fire Chief Carl M. Kaupalolo’s endorsement of Gomes’ bravery and dedication could have been a bit, well, more eloquent: “Firefighter Gomes has contributed to improved services, financial savings and progressed in public service,” he said, according to today’s Maui News. Makes her sound like a clever accountant, rather than someone who regularly straps on an oxygen tank and dives into raging infernos. Anyway, Gomes and three other county employees who are getting honored will receive $100 and a certificate, which hopefully was written by someone other than Kaupalolo.

One of the state’s true bipartisan public officials is leaving his post. Of course, when I say “bipartisan,” I mean that this official did much to bring both Democrats and Republicans together in mutually despising him. That’s right: Dwayne Yoshina, who has served as Hawai`i’s chief elections officer since 1996, is stepping down, according to today’s Honolulu Star-Bulletin. To the left, Yoshina was the guy with rotten “people skills” who gave out a no-bid contract in 1998 for a computerized voting system that didn’t even work properly. And to the right—specifically, Governor Linda Lingle—Yoshina ran an office that was impossibly slow in counting ballots. “When you have an office that has only one function and that is to hold elections every two years, we shouldn’t have this many problems with a state this size,” she said, according to the paper.

Now in Yoshina’s defense, he doesn’t seem to have done anything truly stupid since 1998, when he chucked the state’s paper ballot system. Years before problematic voting procedures in Florida and Ohio gave the White House to George W. Bush, Yoshina gave Hawai`i a computer voter system that was so flawed the state Senate eventually ordered a full statewide recount. In this regard, Yoshina was far ahead of his time.

FRIDAY, Mar. 2 Planning.

SATURDAY, Mar. 3 Always planning.

SUNDAY, Mar. 4 So the other day I was talking to my friend Sarah, who works at the Southshore Tiki Lounge in Kihei, about bees. “Bees across the country are just dying,” she told me. She had read about the great bee die-off on some online news site. “I haven’t seen anything on this anywhere, and nobody has any idea why they’re disappearing,” Sarah said. “The ramifications across the environment are stunning, and you’d think this would be a little more important than Anna Nicole Smith, but I guess not.” I mention all this now because the Honolulu Star-Bulletin has a big story today on how Hawai`i’s

At least our bees are safe... for now

bees seem to be very healthy. “Bees are reportedly vanishing, in 22 states across the nation, stricken by mites, pathogens and the most recent outbreak of ‘fall dwindle disease,’” reported the paper.

“Hawaii remains one of the few places in the world where the bees, because of the geographic isolation and quarantine, remain healthy.” Well, relatively healthy: for reasons completely unknown, honey production is down 21 percent from last year’s levels. “We watch our bees just like you’d watch your cows, sheep or goats,” Oahu beekeeper Michael Kliks said in the Star-Bulletin article. “We knew 10 years ago something was going on. We haven’t had a decent harvest here for at least a decade… Everything is helter skelter and our bees are starving.”

MONDAY, Mar. 5 While it’s a good thing the state Legislature is gradually waking up to the fact that the proposed Superferry will impact the state’s environment in ways far more pronounced and different than the slow-moving barges and freighters that currently use our waters, it’s time to be realistic about the chances of forcing a full environmental review on the big boats.

Yes, state Senators have proposed a bill that would require a full environmental review of the Superferry–at state taxpayer expense, though, and only after Hawaii

Superferry, Inc. starts operations–but it’s not even close to a done deal. That’s because Superferry opponents in the Legislature still have to get their compromise bill by Maui’s own Representative Joe Souki. He’s sat in the seat representing Wailuku and Waiehu for the last quarter century. A longtime Superferry supporter—and beneficiary of $1,000 in Superferry campaign cash (See The Exchange, Feb. 15, 2007)—Souki has loudly and proudly declared his intention to kill any and all Superferry EIS bills that reach his Transportation Committee, which he chairs. “[W]e don’t need it,” Souki said in yesterday’s Maui News of a Superferry EIS. “The judge said we don’t need it. The federal government says we don’t need it.” Even the support in the state Senate for an EIS doesn’t bother old Joe. “The Senate usually have things wrong,” he said in the News.

TUESDAY, Mar. 6 The war in Iraq will take a long time— perhaps many years—but we need to slow the bloodshed very soon to change the “perceptions” about the war. So says Admiral William J. Fallon, the new head of U.S. Central Command, in today’s Honolulu Advertiser. Now if you think Fallon’s prescription sounds vague, contradictory and pretty much impossible, then you’re probably more informed than many on the “progress” of our latest Middle East fight, which has to date gone on longer than our involvement in World War II. Now in Fallon’s defense, his interview with the Advertiser was significant not for what he said, but for the fact that he never used the word “victory,” which comes out of the White House so often these days you’d think they were getting royalties on its use.

DATE: Dec. 30, 2005 AMOUNT: $350

Years ago I interviewed a former mainland city councilmember who began her political life at a small planning firm. Though they did good work, they rarely got the big city and county contracts because, she believed, the company principles refused to write campaign contribution checks to local officials. Munekiyo & Hiraga is a fine example of a local firm that isn’t so squeamish. They hand out checks on a fairly regular basis to a variety of elected officials, but I’m focusing here on Hokama because of his greater power relative to the rest of the county council (state campaign records show that since 2003, the firm has given Hokama $900). Last year the state hired Munekiyo & Hiraga to do a “site selection study” for the proposed Kihei high school, but even bigger projects are possible. The Mar. 1, 2007 Maui News story “W. Maui medical center endorsed” on the county council’s support for building a new hospital on the Westside includes the small detail that Munekiyo & Hiraga has already submitted an environmental impact statement on the hospital to the county Department of Planning. Firm principle Mitch Hirano “hopes the Planning Department will approve the environmental study and pass it on to the state Office of Environmental Quality Control for publication,” reported the News.

The vision gave him recipes based on seven herbs mentioned in the Quran but authorized him to treat no more than 10 AIDS sufferers, on Thursdays and Mondays, and not more than 100 asthma patients, on Fridays and Saturdays. Not surprisingly, the government self-reports success. Jammeh’s previous visions included making Gambia rich by exporting oil, but so far no deposits have been found.

Chilean artist Marco Evaristti, serving dinner to friends at a gallery in Santiago in January, presented a dish of meatballs that he said had been cooked using liposuctioned fat from his own body. “The question of whether or not to eat human flesh is more important than the result,” he said. “You are not a cannibal if you eat art.” Evaristti is the artist who once put live fish in a blender at a gallery and invited guests to push the button.

GOVERNMENT IN ACTION Nathaniel Abraham was convicted of murder in 1998 and incarcerated, but only until he turned 21, which was in January, at which time he was moved into a rent-free apartment in Bay City, Mich., and enrolled tuition-free in Delta College, in a program sponsored

by Michigan Rehabilitation Services.

Though some criticized such lavish treatment of a murderer, Abraham

seemed ready to start his new life, arriving in Oakland Circuit Court for his formal release wearing “a black fur coat, ivory fedora hat, and a ivory and hot-pink pinstriped suit with matching pink tie and shoes,” according to a Detroit News reporter.

NOT SO PRIVATE DICK Testifying in January against a San Bernardino, Calif., strip club accused of promoting prostitution, licensed private investigator Duane Minard (who was working on contract for the police) admitted that he went too far in gathering evidence. He said he had paid a woman $300 for a legitimate dance in a private room, but by the time she had “finished,” he owed her $500 more for “additional” services. He testified that he knew he wasn’t supposed to go all the way, but “I didn’t have the time to clear my head,” he said. “I was aroused. I was waiting for the cavalry to come over the hill.”

LEAST COMPETENT CRIMINALS Police in Lilburn, Ga., were called to the cemetery adjacent to Luxomni Baptist Church at 2:40 a.m. one morning in January to investigate reports of a man screaming for about two hours. They found Ezekiel Dejesus-Rodriguez, 24, pinned under a gravestone with a bloody, broken leg and said he had apparently been knocking over headstones for fun until one fell on him.

BRIGHT IDEAS Kurt Husfeldt, 46, and two others were arrested in Lindenhurst, N.Y., in January in possession of 14 stolen electronic devices that they apparently assumed were cell phones. However, they were global positioning devices from a nearby municipal facility, and police had followed their signals to Husfeldt’s home. MTW

Maui Peace Action and others are tracking two bills regarding Depleted Uranium (DU) testing, HB 1452 and SB 1669. Some have said the DU issue is a further reason for needing an EIS for Hawaii Superferry, Inc. Former Navy Secretary John Lehman, Superferry’s $70 million investor, has stated the boats will be an essential link for transporting Stryker Brigade (which uses DU in their weapons) troops and equipment from Oahu to the Big Island.

The Sierra Club’s Jeff Mikulina has shepherded environmental legislation for the past several years, and was instrumental in rallying efforts for the Bottle Bill and Legacy Lands Act, to name a few. This year he touts the Global Warming Solutions Act (HB 226, SB 1612) as the most vitally important single bill this session. This measure would address Hawai`i’s contribution to global climate change by identifying, regulating and reducing our greenhouse gas emissions.

Such a measure is ambitious and complicated, with lots of sections and different deadlines. Sen. Roz Baker, part of Maui’s one-two punch heading the powerful Ways and Means Committee (Shan Tsutsui is vicechair), almost didn’t schedule a hearing for the bill because she felt it was “too difficult to understand.” But public pressure in the form of calls, faxes and e-mailed testimony apparently changed her mind, and SB 1612 is moving forward. Still, the obvious opponents are Hawaiian Electric and its subsidiaries, Western States Petroleum and other big-money players in the fossil fuel business.

Mikulina is also pushing SB 1702, which requires retailers to take back recyclable bottles and cans, as is the case in most other Bottle Bill states.

Once again, the obstacles are the retailers, distributors and beverage container industries, all represented by full-time lobbyists.

Even great-sounding bills, such as a solar hot-water heating mandate for all new homes (SB 644), can get hung up. In this case, those opposed to the requirement include builders/developers, The Gas Company, Hawaiian Electric (again) and even a potential ally, the solar industry! Mikulina feels the industry is doing well with residential retrofits and fears the change, or possibly an influx of new solar busi-

nesses if installations were mandated.

Similarly, well-intentioned measures, such as the creation of Aha Councils to guide resource and subsistence management (HB 1848), could dismember years of efforts to implement a lay gill net ban.

A Maui News editorial called HB 1848 “political pandering of the worst kind, an insult to Native Hawaiian traditions of stewardship and a major threat to the survival of reef life in all the islands.” The respective bills were introduced and supported by Sen. Kalani English and Rep. Mele Carroll, both native Hawaiians, but the pressure behind the bill is largely from thousands of Oahu fishermen.

Timing the introduction of new legislation is another wild card. Advancing under the radar are bills that would give $59 million in special revenue bonds to Maui Electric and BlueEarth Biofuels for a proposed bidiesel refinery on Maui (SB 1718, HB 1912). The bills were well on their way through committees before citizen and environmental groups began to scrutinize the requests.

“It doesn’t comply with state procurement to hand-pick one company and award this kind of support,” said Lance Holter of the Sierra Club, Maui Group.

“They probably should be required to prepare an EIS for using state funds, and so that the public can have time to properly review the project before committing to something of this massive scale, with probable detrimental economic and environmental ramifications.”

Like Tweedledum and Tweedledee bickering over a broken rattle, legislative proceedings go forth with airs of great importance, but often with the appearances of absurdity. Every year, a few good bills sneak through the system, though many more are left by the wayside. On the other side of the legislative looking glass, that’s just the way things are. MTW

I

t’s Women’s History Month. And so in honor of all that is good in the world—that’s you, ladies—we wanted to call attention to one female pioneer in the music industry from the early 1970’s.

As a preeminent lesbian-feminist folk musician, Cris Williamson is considered the progenitor of Women’s Music. She started the first all-women record label, fiercely encouraging women to write, produce, record and issue their own material on their own terms. She’s also an activist for women’s issues, as well as Native American rights, and teaches songwriting workshops several times a year.

Williamson is currently on a nationwide tour for the 30th anniversary of her seminal album, The Changer and the Changed, one of the best-selling independent releases of all time. I talked to her by phone, while she was on break at her home in Seattle.

MAUI TIME WEEKLY: How’s the tour going?

CRIS WILLIAMSON: It’s been a remarkable response from the album. [People who come to the show] know every inch of it. They look around as if they’ve stumbled into a cult—it’s so positive and so beautiful. While it is so reminiscent of the powerful women’s movement in the 70’s, when we were carving out space in the wilderness, now there are people who do them all the time. It’s not just a huge thing. There were a lot of barriers that got melted back then. There are a lot of bad connotations of the word “nostalgia,” but it’s just a turn towards home and who among us doesn’t need a turn towards home.

MAUI TIME WEEKLY

It sounds like people are finding comfort in your album again, 30 years after its release.

I think all good works of art need to have a firm grounding in the past with a finger pointing towards to the future and a finger firmly pointing in the now. And people come to the show leave full when they didn’t know they were empty. It’s a waterfall sort of experience. I think it’s important to remember that sense of community. How appropriate is it that our local sponsor is Women Helping Women? It didn’t exist in the ‘70’s but it does everywhere now. It is primarily women who care about women’s issues.

It’s no surprise that women care so deeply and so much. And this music has been instrumental in just that same way—it has a lifeline. There are so many stories, and from men, too, that “this music has saved my life.” That brings with it a great and powerful responsibility and I am thrilled to accept it. I’m doing what I want. I don’t know if you can ever do enough but at least I’m doing something.

Do you ever tire of the pressures of being an iconic figure in women’s music?

I don’t. I get tired physically sometimes. I’d be heart sore if that ever fell off. Or I’d done it so well that nobody needs me anymore. But I’ll be doing this forever. I’ll probably even do a 50th anniversary tour. They’ll have to wheel me out there! And it’ll just be one tune. ‘Cause the show will be at noon! But it’s the human condition to have tremendous loneliness, and there’s a real connection with music. It unites people cellularly—it isn’t just through the ears. Even people who are hearing impaired can feel it.

Music is like water for thirsty people. That’s what we’re bringing. We just gotta make sure the people get there. We’re really, really looking forward to it, to feel the special nature of Maui.

Poets have that nature. Poetry isn’t just some obscure thing, it’s one sense of the world, and the poet’s job is to articulate that. It’s just a slant of light, really, in an ordinary world, so that people can see it, too. What’s the use of doing it as a solo venture in the world? I’m interested in how we’re all alike.

What are your plans for after the tour?

Working on new songs. I’m going back into my sense of place, my favorite place where I grew up in the Rockies, places I knew best. I’m reading lots of journals of ranch women, who’ll write a poem about calves birthing. I admire the ability to do difficult, hard manual work and stick to it, because nobody will ever pay you your worth. I think that’s spectacular. Because nobody will ever pay you what you’re worth, what makes it worthwhile is if you have a conversation with the world and maybe it will be of value to somebody else. Mothers, musicians, etc. are all like that.

It seems you found your worth early on, by empowering women through your music, and starting the Olivia label.

I started the first women’s recording company because I knew all these great female musicians and then they get out and there’s no place to play, because they’re women. Talent isn’t gender directed. Talent just appears magically and beautifully. It’s some special way of light and the giving back of it. Nobody ever pays us enough for what we do. Almost all of us give it to the world for free because it is our job. But we have to figure out our value. That so matters.

How many older musicians, when they’re in their 70’s, turn around and have nothing? Meanwhile the Rolling Stones are getting terribly rich, and not giving anything back to the masters, the giants before them.

It’s like there are beautiful old people sweeping the road for the young people to tread and they’re looking

oddly at the old people, like “who’s that?”

How do you think the industry has changed since you recorded The Changer and the Changed 30 years ago?

I’m a renegade. I was in the industry for a minute— six months, actually. I’ve been on the road as a solo artist for years, everywhere and anywhere. I went to college, could’ve taught high school English. Instead I took to the road—the Dummy series wasn’t out yet on how to tour and do it successfully. When I was in Washington, D.C., I did an interview about sexism in the industry, and suggested a record company for women, which became Olivia Records.

Tickets: $25/$35, $65 VIP (includes artists reception).

Special guests Teresa Trull, Barbara Higbie and Vicki Randle.

For info call 280-2833.

Now what’s changed is the independent industry is thriving. Technology affords us to record at home. That just wasn’t around in the ‘70’s. It was enough to carry your guitar in a suitcase. But now, we can ship it—I have my own label, we ship our CDs ahead. In those days major labels did not sell at the show because they got airplay. But none of us got airplay because it’s all conglomerate stuff. The labels make deals with the radio stations, etc.

If you’re a renegade, you’re under the radar. You’re making the rules as you go along. There’s a great kind of honesty that occurs when you do that. In all these years, I built a solid group of fans. I can put their names in the computer. We didn’t have that—we had the #2 pencil and paper.

[Laughs.] I still have a #2 pencil. It’s always good to keep a bit of the old—the ability to grow your own food, make a fire. When the power’s out, you don’t want to be stupidly standing in the store going, “Hunh? What do I do now?”

As an artist you still have to be really good when you step on stage. I don’t care how many CDs you’ve got. I’m a live artist.

You must be present to win. That’s the deal.

Left: Cris Williamson, 1975; Right: Williamson today

Especially on the college radio stations, and there’s nowhere else I’d rather be. What can a major label offer me that I don’t already have? Money, maybe, but it’s an illusion—you have to pay it back. It isn’t real. It’s called “a deal” for a reason. They’re dealers. You have a talent, and they turn it.

As an indie artist, you can go where you want to, you can blog, you can let your people know you’re coming to town and they buy their tickets in advance. It’s more work but you have more control.

What do you think of women in the music industry today?

My girlfriend and I—we make posters, we do everything—we’re a self-fulfilling odyssey. And as much as we can, we use women in the business. But with artists like Melissa [Etheridge], I think, “Girl, when are you going to get it?” She uses men in her band when she could so easily use female musicians. But she’s got a major label and they have a say. God, sexism is human consciousness. As long as the boys have the money, we have to make our own. And that’s what we did—we started a record company. I still fundraise for every album. They invest in my art. As a general rule, musicians are not independently wealthy—they depend on the kindness of strangers. And they’re perfect because they love your music and don’t want anything else.

Certainly people must’ve tried to take advantage, whether you’re a woman, a lesbian or a musician?

Yes, but I’ve learned to develop a sense. Over the years, that sense gets better. You have to work your way out of it. I’m not any different from anybody.

These days nobody blinks when you say “lesbian.” In the ‘70’s you sort of held your breath and waited for the world to fall down. All it is about is love. And if you ask me that’s all we’re here for on earth. And we’re not very good at it. There’s thousands of books on how to do it.

We apparently need a lot of instruction in this! And that’s ultimately what we’re here for. MTW

I won’t lie to you—I’ve eaten them before, and they were the major motivation behind my seemingly innocent pitch to review the somewhat recent addition to the Fairway Shops in Ka`anapali. Conflict of interest? Perhaps, but that’s a practical matter far less significant than the mystical combination of seafood and citrus.

China Bowl 2580 Kekaa St., Ka`anapali, 661-0667.

MAUI TIME WEEKLY

In the interest of fairness, my dining buddy and I reluctantly decided against a four-course scallop meal. Passing on the advertised daily vegetable specials of Sauteed String Bean with Pork (confused me, too) and Sauteed Bok Choy with Garlic, we opted to start with the Minced Chicken Lettuce Wraps and Shrimp and Cream Cheese Wontons, which buddy had tried once before, in Mazatlan, of all places.

“They were good?” I asked.

“Real good. Epic, actually.”

Both appetizers were solid, if not quite epic. The wraps, served as an order of two, packed enough flavor to compensate for the somewhat small serving size. The wontons— though also small in stature—were absolutely delicious, though my buddy expressed disappointment in the cream-cheese-to-crab ratio.

Surveying the dining room between courses, we noticed and appreciated the attention to detail the owners (who also operate China Boat in Kahana) had paid during renovations.

Red track lighting illuminated the natural stone floors below, and the entire restaurant radiated a clean, warm, open atmosphere— apparently too open for my buddy: “I’m not sure about the exposed kitchen.”

“You’re kidding, right?” I said. “It’s spotless.

I actually think it should be a requirement.”

What came out of that open kitchen next truly was epic.

Ignoring the requisite China Bowl Chicken Special (which comes with no less than five vegetables and a dark ginger sauce and, after the dust had settled, I was told turned out to be actually quite good), I dominantly reached for the plate of Orange Peel Scallops (fish, chicken, or pork can be substituted if one was so inclined). Proceeding to devour my main course while grunting like Billy Bob Thornton in Sling Blade, I somehow managed to attempt to scribble a few professional, though mostly unintelligible notes, including: “Mmmrph.”

“Peels singed like good marshmellows.”

“Good. Really, really good. Really good.”

“Sweet. Tangy. Yum.” Wiping the carnage from my jovial face, I apologized to buddy for going caveman and suggested that the Orange Peel Scallops clearly deserved the title of “China Bowl Special.”

“I’ll have to take your word for it,” my buddy replied sarcastically, if not downright dishonestly. (I’m fairly sure I’d insisted on sharing at least a scallop).

“I wouldn’t lie to you,” I said.

And I wouldn’t. Not convinced? Consult my fortune cookie: “You have an ability to sense and know higher truth.”

I’m big on truth. And China Bowl’s Orange Peel Scallops are the truth. MTW

ThIS WEEK’S PICKS

by Samantha Campos

Paint Me Naked

Hail, Natalie!

Friday (Mar. 9), 6:30-9 p.m. at The Quan Gallery

Friday (Mar. 9), 7:30 p.m. at the Castle Theater

[ART DEMO] Still life is nice. Abstract is interesting. Landscapes are a cash-cow.

Nudes are fricking awesome. I swear, if I had a boatload of cash, I would have naked people everywhere. Oh, and several nude paintings to go along with the theme. Artist Lori Koprowski knows what she’s doing when it comes to painting saucy, colorful, provocative nudes... and she manages to stay classy about the whole thing. How do people do that? Anyway, she’s going to be demonstrating her technique with “The Femme Series—Expressive Nudes in Oil” at The Quan Gallery this Friday. The Quan Gallery is filled with erotic morsels of eyecandy. Owner Carolyn Quan does some amazing nude photo collages. Wine and goodies to be served.

Free. The Quan Gallery, 900 Front St., Lahaina, 6672757. [LILIANA BEGLEY]

[JAZZ/R&B] Considering how she lives in the shadow of the “King,” you can’t blame Natalie Cole for fearing (like everyone else) that she’s just reflecting some of pa’s light, but 35 years of shine seems to say it’s her own. One bornagain fan mentioned how back in 1974 at a funk festival he hadn’t been impressed but declares that he bought her recent Leavin’ CD and plays it with pleasure. While singing with a band in college she earned a B.A. in child psychology but just three years later “Inseparable” debuted and her career as a physician was set aside for the glory of Grammys. Marriage and divorce colored by her drug and alcohol abuse, making her soulful comeback all the more beautiful. Searching the web for anything “Natalie” and I could find images of her kissing Mr. T but not a single complaint of her fame being undeserved. Altogether, she’s worth seeing just to hear why everyone compares her to Aretha. Tickets: $85, $75, $65, $55. For info, call 242SHOW. [KIRA SABINI]

The Dance of Words and Music Saturday (Mar. 10) 7:30 p.m. at The Studio Maui, Haiku [POETRY/MUSIC] Okay, I’ll admit it. I was one of those weird teenagers that dyed her hair pink, wore strange clothes, and carried a journal everywhere. I’d write poetry for hours, and by poetry I mean hate letters to the Universe. My poetry took a turn for the better when I fell in love with a cranky, genius musician and I’d write by the lantern light in this little renovated barn while he played the guitar.

Sometimes I’d read my latest masterpiece out loud while he played. This is when the magic happened. My words floated on his music—my words and his music would dance. Then again, this was all taking place between young-people sex and bong-rips, so take it with a grain of salt. Jami Sieber and Kim Rosen kind of have the same thing going on with the words and music thang. The difference is that they travel the world doing it and other people are interested in what they have to say. Since 1992 they’ve been doing “Poetry Concerts,” where Sieber rocks the electric cello and Rosen recites mad poetry. The result is tripped-out beauty and the liberation of the spoken word. Check out their latest show, “Somewhere I have never traveled...” Tickets: $20, $15. Call 575-9390. [LB]

DAY

Ode to Kihei All week after 10 p.m. at Bada Bing [NIGHTLIFE] Kihei, I have a confession to make: I’m a fool. You see, I’ve lived on Maui for over four years now, all in Lahaina, and until recently have only given you my attention on rare occasions. I had some good times at Hapa’s and once went on a cheesesteak mission to Shaka’s, but other than that I tried to avoid what West Siders unlovingly refer to as “Kihell.” Please try not to feel used. I just felt intimidated by your notorious triangle and its alleged E.W.O.K. inhabitants, and being in another relationship, never really had any interest in that scene. But things change, and I’ve been needing something different lately. I’ve been coming around to you more, awakened to your charms. I’m not too stubborn to acknowledge my past mistakes and ask your forgiveness. Kihei, I apologize. I think I love you, baby. And I definitely want to spend more time with you. I’m going to start this week, at Bada Bing, where the best elements of Hapa’s have blessedly been relocated. I’ll be there for you on Wednesday for the return of “Ultra Fabulous,” Maui’s best (and possibly only) gay night. We’ll have so much fun together that I’ll have no choice but to spend Thursday in your arms, being serenaded by the island’s best live act, Uncle Willie K. We’ll get Moons Over My Hammy at 3 a.m., a privilege not afforded to me before you came along, then spend the day at the divine Charley Young beach, toasting second chances. Check the Grid for more info. [COREY NIELSEN]

FILMCRITIQUE

BY COLE SMITHEY COLE@MAUITIME.COM

Wicked Gravity Blues roots take hold in Gothic tale of redemption The title Black Snake Moan comes from Texas bluesman Blind Lemon Jefferson’s song about going blind, and the swampy imagery serves as a beacon of primal anguish for writer/director Craig Brewer (Hustle & Flow). On the outskirts of Memphis, Rae (Christina Ricci) suffers from an anxiety disorder that causes desperate fits of nymphomania that her boyfriend Ronnie (Justin Timberlake) sates.

Black Snake Moan

★★★★★ Rated R/116 min.

But as soon as Iraq-destined Ronnie leaves for boot camp, Rae immediately returns to seeking out promiscuous sex with every guy in her path. Her indiscretion leads to a brutal beating that puts her left-for-dead on a dirt road near the house of Lazarus (Samuel L. Jackson) a former Blues singer turned farmer. Lazarus’ chivalrous decision to risk his own life to save Rae leads him to chain her to his farmhouse radiator for an unpredictable sort of moral, mental and physical salvation.

Brewer’s hard-bitten drama isn’t merely defiant; it spits fire at America’s phony media-fed version of itself. It displays human struggle on an intimate scale that prompts its audience to reflect on their own misconceptions.

Musical legend Son House sets the film’s dramatic framework from a blackand-white clip of him describing how the tension in the Blues “consists between male and female.” The documentary footage cuts to Rae and Ronnie having passionate sex just moments before he leaves for military service. Like a spoiled pet, Rae chases after her boyfriend as he rides away in his best friend Gill’s pickup truck.

After taking a handful of mixed drugs at an outdoor party, Rae accepts a ride home from Gill (Michael Raymond-James) and makes the mistake of offering herself up to him. Her boyfriend’s pal takes advantage of the situation to violently act out his insecurities on her and leave her for dead.

We know Rae as simultaneously contemptible and compatible but are drawn to her as a protagonist we care about. The T-shirt that she wears for much of the film has an American flag and a Confederate flag crossing one another as a rebel symbol that would make Hillary Clinton fume.

Rae isn’t just any voracious slut of local renown; she is a force-of-nature freedom fighter on a mission to screw the world into submission.

Lazarus is a farmer suffering grave emotional pain over his wife’s decision to abandon their marriage of 12-years to take up

MAUI TIME WEEKLY

True romance

with his brother. He drives a tractor over her old rose garden after meeting with her in a restaurant in an attempt at reconciliation that she unceremoniously refutes. As Lazarus will soon point out to his neighborly preacher R.L. (John Cothran), this is a place where “being black and nearby” are cause for punishment.

When Rae awakens in Lazarus’ house and realizes the debt she owes him, she offers herself to him. His clear refusal of sex shifts their paradigm into a realm that neither of them understands. It isn’t until she tries to run away before recovering from her wounds that Laz (as he’s called) chains her to the radiator with a long heavy chain that repeats Brewer’s unnerving image system of a snake representing the tool of an avenging angel (Lazarus).

The other instrument that Lazarus uses

is pulled out from beneath his bed in the guise of an old Gibson guitar. His reconnection with the guitar after years of not playing forms a basis of musical associations that enter Rae’s consciousness like rungs on a ladder toward a different kind of physical release.

Craig Brewer is an American auteur in the Martin Scorsese sense of the term.

Like Robert De Niro’s Johnny Boy in Mean Streets, Christina Ricci’s anti-heroine is treated with a respect and patience that only her creator can preserve. But unlike Johnny Boy, Rae has a chance.

Black Snake Moan is not the best film that Craig Brewer will ever write and direct, but it comes from the most original and independent filmmaker out there.

ART&ENTERTAINMENT

BY KEITH BENEDICT KEITH@MAUITIME.COM

‘If It Ain’t Broke, Don’t Fix It’ Talking to tattoo artist Spike Fuqua Skin Deep Tattoo is one of Maui’s oldest tattoo shops. If you’ve been on the island at any time during the last 31 years, you probably already know it’s the shop across the street from the Banyan Tree in Lahaina. Spike Fuqua has been a tattoo artist there for over a decade. Recently I had a chance to talk to the outspoken artist, in Skin Deep’s air-conditioned Front Street parlor.

MAUI TIME WEEKLY: What made you decide to be a tattoo artist?

SPIKE FUQUA: It just looked like something I could do. I’ve always drawn, and I’ve always liked tattoos.

Plus I was sick of schlepping t-shirt artwork all over the island so this was perfect.

How long have you been doing this, and have you always worked at Skin Deep?

Twelve years now. I got my first tattoo here. Oh yeah, I’m never leaving. Yeah, I got my first [tattoo] and my last one right here. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. I’m not going anywhere. I’ll be that old guy they prop up in the corner doing novelty stuff.

Eugene, Oregon, but I grew up in the Red Hills of Dundee, up in the wine country actually. That’s where I spent most of my time growing up.

Did you or do you now, paint or draw much?

Yup. I started out painting windows as a kid, you know, like candy canes and Christmas shit. Basic window stuff is what I started doing, then some t-shirt design and anything anyone wanted drawn, from skateboards to surfboards to whatever. Now I’m doing a lot of acrylics painting, I’m just trying to branch out.

Can’t tattoo forever, I want to put a beret on and sit at home and paint.

How would you describe your style?

Most of my stuff is real colorful and cartoonie. I’d say it’s vivid, whimsical— it’s like a cross between, say, Peter Max and Hanna-Barbara cartoons. Colorful but not pretentious, you know, I hate pretentious artists. I’ll even go next door here and look at that art and think, “$1,200–you gotta be fucking kidding me, right?” So a lot of my stuff is just simple and colorful. It’s just pop art. I have a hard time pricing my stuff, but I think it’s a lot better than some of the crap I see around here.

Where are you from originally?

MAUI TIME WEEKLY

What’s your favorite piece you’ve done on someone?

There’s a bunch of good pieces. Favorite, I don’t know. There’s this Iron Man here in the front of my [portfolio] book—that thing kicks ass. There’s the big Rat Fink thing I did for a buddy, it’s got my name on there twice—that guy’s my bitch for life.

Anything I don’t fuck up and I get paid for is a good tattoo.

What’s your least favorite piece?

I don’t have a least favorite piece but, like, I hate doing… I’m just at the point where I don’t want to be challenged. I want to be the guy that does the dolphin on the ankle. You have these guys who want to do these big pieces, but for me A.D.D. kicks in, in about an hour. If the tattoo isn’t over in two or three hours, I’m over it.

More favorite stuff, too, is the little tourist stuff, honestly, ‘cause it’s just badda-bing. You know, a hundred bucks, a hunSpike’s pop art dred bucks, next. I’ve already filled my [portfolio] book up, I just want wire, unless they can prove to me to get out of here at the end of the day they’re a rancher. Also, it’s hard for me and go play my X-Box live. to do traditional Polynesian pieces on some dickhead from let’s say, Nebraska.

That kind of answers my next quesNow granted they probably see it done tion, which was, how do you feel about on the Discovery channel and think it’s doing dolphins and such? cool, but that makes as much sense as some Samoan guy getting a tattoo of an I love it. Dolphins, hibiscus, geckos— ear of corn. all day. Tikis, palm trees—love it. I’ll never get tired of doing that stuff.

If you had to pick one subject matter Whales, turtles, any marine life. to do for the rest of your career what would it be?

Have you ever had to talk anybody out of a tattoo?

The hibiscus, the size of a half-dollar coin. That’s it right there.

You mean subject matter? Yeah, all the time, I’ll just tell them no. But you Skin Deep Tattoo is located at 626 have to be diplomatic, you have to say Front St., Lahaina, 661-8531. MTW things like, “I’ll interpret what you mean by doing this.” I always say no to barbed

EARSHOT

BY SAMANTHA CAMPOS SAM@MAUITIME.COM

Recent Releases that Rock My Rabato PEEPING TOM “PEEPING TOM” [ROCK] This might be Mike Patton’s most commercial release yet—some of his Faith No More work not withstanding. Still holding true to his wild unpredictability, Patton utilizes elements of rock, metal, funk, jazz, hip-hop and pop, and enlists the help of some wellknown friends to make an album of surprising hits—hey, he’s definitely got the chops to do it—but without losing his deranged sense of humor and experimental musicality. Only Patton could sing lyrics like, “I know that assholes grow on trees but I’m here to trim the leaves/and you’re just a piece of shit/but I can overlook it today/’cause you’re still my friend” and have it sound like a power ballad, then turn around and do a duet (“Caipirinha” with Bebel Gilberto) like a slinky Brazilian playboy. He gets überfunky on “How U Feelin’?” but proves he’s still creepy and rockin’ hard on the catchy “We’re Not Alone (Remix).” And on “Sucker” he riles up a naughty little Norah Jones—there’s something so satisfying in hearing the eternally tasteful Jones slither out “What makes you think you’re my only lover?/The truth kinda hurts don’t it, mother fucker.” Curiously, something about his vocal style made me want to dig out my old The The records. Anyway, like Patton himself, this album gets better and better with time and repeated listening. —Ipecac Recordings 2006 THE BIRD AND THE BEE “THE BIRD AND THE BEE” [INDIE POP] This is one of the most infectious albums I’ve heard in a long time. Possibly, ever. It’s pure pop, the kind that gives a mod nod to Europop bands of the ‘60’s and the Lawrence Welk Show, but with a breezy bossa nova sensibility and trip hop edge that’s never vapid—instead, there’s a refreshing intelligence and lots of wry humor. And though it’s Greg Kurstin’s catchy pop and jazz instrumentation that’ll have you bopping in your seats, it’s the sardonic, cynically romantic lyricism juxtaposed with Inara George’s sweet, breathy vocals that’ll hook you in right from the get-go, as on “Again,” the opening track: “Say my name, say my name, say my stupid name. It’s stupid how we always seem to do it again… It’s so stupid and perfect and stupid and perfect. I hate you, I want you, I hate you, I hate you, oh oh.”—Blue Note Records 2007 THE DEFTONES “SATURDAY NIGHT WRIST” [METAL] They’re baaack. This is the eponymous Deftones album, and one that took them three years to make. There are few, if any, surprises, like Annie Hardy’s (of Giant Drag, see below) vocal cameo on the creepy but hilariously dirty, “Pink Cellphone.” Even so, the Deftones is a metal band that takes itself seriously and apparently experienced a lot of inner turmoil during the making of this album. But this is not necessarily a bad thing—the underlying angsty tension between Chino Moreno’s dreamy/screamy vocals and the heavy, thrashing rawness of the rest of the band is what makes the Deftones great.

Especially if you’re a fan already, you won’t be disappointed. —Maverick 2006 GIANT DRAG “HEARTS AND UNICORNS” [INDIE ROCK] Okay, so this release is not quite “new.”

But a friend recently turned me on to this cheeky indie rock duo and I haven’t been able to extricate the CD from my car stereo since. I’m completely addicted. An interviewer once asked Micah Calabrese and Annie Hardy to describe their music: “Sounds like a girl playing guitar and singing, and a dude playing drums and bass—added distortion pedal and some cats.” And yeah, essentially that’s it. But the songs are epic rock that, unlike the Deftones, doesn’t take itself too seriously. Annie Hardy sings like Kathleen Hanna’s (of Bikini Kill) cool, stony younger sister or the more girly distant American cousin of PJ Harvey. In fact, there is a definitive ‘90’s alternative rock feel to the album, which has drawn comparisons to My Bloody Valentine and Nirvana. It’s slinky, hard, ironic and most definitely not a giant drag. —Kickball 2005

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) This is the kind of luck you’re likely to experience this week: It’s gorgeous and sunny when you leave the house, but by the time you’re an hour’s walk from home, pouring rain will make your return trip a very sodden affair indeed. I tell you this not so you’ll stay home. Carry on with life as usual; just be prepared for lamer turns of events, and don’t be phased when they happen. Remember, although it sucks, it could always be worse.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) You don’t generally lay awake nights over questions of ethics. Rams have strong opinions about everything, and see the world, if not in black and white, then at least in clearly delineated shades of grey. You usually have no trouble deciding between them when necessary. When a close friend waffles over a decision that seems like a no-brainer to you, you might be tempted to take charge and make it for them. Resist this urge! This, after all, is actually none of your business, and even though you know what the “right” decision would be, it’s your friend’s place to make it, or screw up.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) There’s something charming about the stammering, fumbling innocence of a teenage first date.

However, it’s not something most people would choose to experience much in the following decades. What’s endearing on a 15-year-old is much less so on a 35-year-old. Sometimes I wonder if you’ve figured that out yet, considering the people you choose to date or otherwise get involved with.

Isn’t it time you met someone who was your equal, or, better yet—someone you could actually learn something from?

You’ve never had the patience of a saint. Let’s be realistic; sometimes you don’t even have the patience of a three-year-old. Nevertheless I believe you capable of learning and practicing it, as required by this week’s events. Why is it necessary? Because being impatient would ruin everything.

No one likes to be rushed, and in this case if you even hinted that something’s taking too long, it might be a deal-breaker. Take a breath, my speedy friend. These things take time. Get used to that, or else get used to not getting what you want.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) Catch up on your sleep. Organize the junk drawer. Eliminate a few of the more annoying (and frequently postponed) things on your To-Do list. Do some early spring cleaning. Nothing especially earthshaking is likely to happen to you this week; therefore it’s the perfect time to set yourself up to tackle the future with the most energy and least baggage possible. Don’t seek out drama, just for entertainment’s sake. Just enjoy the respite from all that crap, even if it’s a bit boring, and get shit done.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) I like it when people are as direct as I am. But that doesn’t mean everyone else enjoys me being blunt; I’ve offended many people by being a little too rude or outspoken. I don’t care all that much, personally; if someone can’t hack it, screw ‘em. Unfortunately, though, you don’t have the luxury of that kind of attitude this week, because you need at least one of those overly sensitive losers to stick around for a while. That means biting your tongue a little, or at least amending your words to ones they can easily swallow.

244-0443 • www.mauirecycles.com

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) February zipped by. You barely noticed it. March, however, is going quite a bit slower—which is both a good and a bad thing. It’s good because it gives you time to deeply savor all the sweet stuff that’s been going down for you lately. It’s bad because it also gives you plenty of time to obsess over it, analyze it to death, and otherwise (accidentally) sabotage it. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but: keep yourself busy this month, Virgo. Not so busy that you can’t enjoy every last minute of the best bits of your life, but busy enough so that during the spaces in-between, you don’t have much of a chance to screw them up.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) Of course, you’re as likely to be moody (or bitchy) as anyone else, but people are surprised when you are. That’s because you don’t often display your irritability when it occurs, or complain about something you’re unhappy about. That’s a good thing, to a point. Unless someone’s directly in a position to change whatever’s upsetting you, it’s wise to limit how much you whine about it. However, when you pretend to be happy while you’re actually seething underneath, sensitive folk around you will detect that, and label you a fake. In other words, be real—even if being real isn’t the most pleasant thing in the world.

I’d love to be a Scorpio. Even though you have it harder than other signs, you’re also more likely to live a deeper, more intense life than most of us. That, of course, more than your looks or sexual proclivities, is what magnetizes people to you. Lately, I don’t know what’s up with you; maybe someone told you to “lighten up,” and you took it to heart. Lighten up if you want, baby, but don’t expect to have the same kind of effect on those you’d seduce or charm. It’s sort of one or the other. I don’t know which you’ll choose, or which is right for you life at the moment. I just wanted to let you know what’s at stake.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) You’ve made a bit of a habit of taking the path of least resistance at nearly every crossroads. To be fair, when one of your fundamental principles is on the line, you pursue the more ethical path, regardless of the effort involved. But what about those choices that don’t violate your morals, like this week’s? The choice before you is clear-cut, on one level, for one path is easy and smooth, while the other would definitely be rockier. It might nevertheless be the wiser course to pursue, though—not because it violates your principles, but because it interferes with someone else’s. And what better way to impress someone than to show them that, even if you don’t exactly share their perspective on life, you can respect it?

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) The bad news is that you’re too busy for your own good. To get everything done, you’ll need to be exceptionally organized and strictly control how you use your time. The good news is that you happen to be very good at exactly that, even when it requires strong discipline. This is not only about how much you get done, but how you prioritize. We already know what you care about, on your own; we want to see how much you can care about what we care about. Without violating your own perspective, let’s find out. How much can you?

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) You guard your feelings sometimes like they’re precious, shameful secrets. They shouldn’t be, you know. You’re allowed to show you’re hurt or damaged, and not hide that like it’s an out-of-control addiction to clown porn. In fact, showing your vulnerability is exactly what’s desired from you at the moment, and the longer you hold out, the more those who want to be there for you will lose patience and give up. Open up, already, and share the “secrets” you’ve been holding onto for too long. And if that includes admitting you’d really like to see your lover in a scarlet afro and sad-face, than so be it.
