LETTERSTOTHEEDITOR TALKING ABOUT DU E d i t o r ’ s N o t e : The following letters concern our Mar. 30, 2006 story “Weapon of Mass Destruction.”

I liked your story. I have been getting citizens to write DU songs and am putting together a CD for people to play on local radio stations. It is going to be a riot to have these jingles playing in all the states with and without DU bills. Good job on covering the DU story.

-Leuren Moret, Berkeley, California Regarding the statement that the U.S. Military does not believe DU is dangerous or that research shows no long-term health effects among uranium miners. The movie Homeland-Four Portraits of Native American Action, produced by www.katahdin.org, has a 20-minute segment on Navajo Uranium miners at Crownpoint on the Navajo Reservation. In it are these disturbing statistics: after 20 years of mining there is a 100 percent increase in infant mortality, a lung cancer rate 28 times normal existing among Native American miners and a bone cancer rate five times the national average with children there.

Recent testimony from Major General Robert G.F. Lee, the Hawai’i Adjutant General, before the Hawai’i State Senate committee hearing on Depleted Uranium screening for returning Iraq veterans (SCR40/SR 21) stated “depleted uranium does not pose a safety risk for our returning soldiers…” This despite Terry Jamison, Public Affairs specialist of the Department of Veterans Affairs, reporting that, “Gulf Era Veterans now on medical disability, since 1991, number 518,739.” Arthur N. Bernklau, executive director of Veterans for Constitutional Law in New York, states that out of 580,000 Gulf War Vets 11,000 have since died and by the year 2000 325,000 were on permanent medical disability.

Mr. Pignataro, you’re absolutely right that you can hardly blame people for not

trusting the military. If you need more information on DU please go to our website www.noduhawaii.com. Further, despite the military objecting to screening tests for returned veterans the Hawai’i Senate passed unanimously out of committee the Resolutions and already 18 Senators have signed on as sponsors and on the federal side Congressman Ed Case has cosponsored the Depleted Uranium Screening and Testing Act, H.R. 202.

-Lance Holter, Chairman, Sierra Club Maui Group Interesting how you like to focus on “stuff” that seems like such a big scary mistake. Like your piece on “DU”—depleted uranium. Coincidently, amazing that a recent bestselling book by Gary Renard, The Disappearance of the Universe, often also gets referred to as “DU.” DU, “weapon of mass destruction” vs. “DU,” Straight Talk About Illusions, Past Lives, Religion, Sex, Politics and the Miracles of Forgiveness.

I don’t know if you have enough time away from your campaign to keep us informed of what might make our lives less comfortable. But if you do, I highly recommend reading “DU” so that you can find out what is really going on in this world, this illusory universe.

And, you could find out the actual purpose of this world in which we seem to live, a world (and this is really scary, especially to people like you and those who read your newspaper) that will disappear when it no longer serves its purpose. Only two things exist in our universe: “Love” and “Calls for Love.” Which one do you do? Good Night and Good Luck!

-Steven Joshua Blue, Wailuku Maui Time welcomes letters commenting on our coverage, but only if they’re complimentary. If you still wish to complain about something, please have the decency to use plenty of bad punctuation and grammar—that makes it easier for us to make fun of you when we respond. Send your letters to the editor via e-mail (letters@mauitime.com), regular mail (Letters to the Editor, Maui Time Weekly, 33 N. Market St., Ste. 201, Wailuku, HI 96793-1742) or fax (808-244-0446). All correspondence must include your full name, hometown and phone number.

EH BRAH! ehbrah@mauitime.com Just want to say thanks to the couple in the red 2000 Honda Civic who stopped right in front of my house on the corner in Kahului the other day just to have sex. I can’t remember the last time I was this lucky. Bet you didn’t know I’m the biggest perv on Maui! Don’t think you noticed, but when I saw you guys I ran in the house and grabbed my digital video camera so I could get the whole thing on tape. Yeah, your windows were tinted, but they weren’t that dark. Boy, your chick had quite a ride—ever thought about entering her in the Makawao Rodeo? Anyway, I guess the only problem I had with you guys (other than you not letting me join in) is that there were kids playing across the street. So the next time you decide to do it in my neighborhood, feel free to knock on my door and ask to use my bedroom. Of course, I get to watch you two go at it, but that’s better than exposing yourselves to children, right?

No one disputes that flood victims need all the financial help they can get, but it does seem that Lingle’s spending a lot more time asking for federal help than she’s pushing to find out why the Kaloko Dam on Kauai failed in the first place. Sure, she put state Attorney General Mark Bennett on the case, but he’s her political appointee and he might have a conflict of interest in that he once worked for the same law firm that’s currently representing the guy who owns the land around the dam. Right now Lingle’s successfully fending off calls from flood victims to appoint an independent investigator, but that might be increasingly difficult, given that this is an election year.

MAUICOUNTY

BY JARED LIBBY JARED@MAUITIME.COM

Sharing the Health One man’s quest to improve your life The Dragon’s Den has been selling natural medicines in Makawao for 18 years.

For the last 16, Matthew Hammond has been behind the wheel, dishing out herbs, tinctures and advice to Maui’s health conscious consumers. In addition to his duties at the store, Hammond gives a free two-hour health lecture every other Saturday. His discussions deal with everything from addiction and emotional healing to colon cleanses and flower essences.

Hammond sat down to share his opinions on the state of health today and talk about why he wants to help.

LC Watch Tabling the Table

He’s been off the Liquor Control Adjudication Board for over a month now, but Lance Collins is still getting rejected by his old colleagues.

This latest time was over the table—the stupid table where the adjudication board members sit during hearings. As it’s arranged now, it’s easy for licensees appearing before the board to think that the prosecuting attorney, LC investigators and board members are all part of the same team. Collins wanted to move things around slightly so that both the prosecuting attorney and the licesee respondent were facing the board.

MAUI TIME WEEKLY: What do you get out of your free health lectures?

MATTHEW HAMMOND: It’s very much my joy to offer what I know, or what I think I know. Having been in natural medicine for so long I’m sitting on a lot of knowledge, and I feel stagnant if I don’t get to express it. I only ever get to partly express it in the context of serving customers at the store.

How have your studies and practices affected your own life?

I might begin to answer that by saying that I got into natural medicine because I lost my health at a very early age. In my early 20’s I became severely hypoglycemic and the medical doctors were pretty much worthless to me. I got a big assist from a chiropractor and he pointed me in the direction of taking care of my own health.

After that I was just looking for more and more knowledge and started to kind of organically help others. In my college years I remember coming up with this traditional Japanese concoction that turned out to be a wonderful remedy for hangovers. I’d have the guys knocking on my door Sunday morning asking, “Matthew, can you make me some of that stuff?”

What’s the general public’s most common misconception about holistic medicine?

I see a lot of what you may call conventional people disenchanted with conventional medicine. I see it as a very deficient system. It has its strong points, emergency medicine for example. A car crash, the ER room. I wouldn’t want to have it done any other way. But for some of the more organic processes of disease, my impression is largely based on the complaints of my customers, who are in it and it’s not working for them. Thus they’re showing up.

APRIL 20, 2006

NEWS

The fallacy, in my opinion, of the naysayer of holistic medicine is that it isn’t scientific.

This is the biggest misconception there is. The amount of scientific research done on natural medicine is humungous. The studies are there.

When I hear people dissing natural medicine, I’m hearing scientifically uninformed, or misinformed people.

What would you say is the largest public health problem today?

I would have to say the food system, which is prevalent across the whole country. Sadly the Hawaiian culture has had a tendency to go to what I would call the bottom end of quality in the food distribution system. The worst of the worst, the SPAM and whatever. And there you see a very high prevalence of diabetes in the Hawaiian community. A lot is being done about that, returning to traditional diets for example. It doesn’t matter where you come from, you will always find health if you go back to your ethnic roots in terms of food systems.

You really just need to get away from the modern system to find health. It’s that simple.

What are the three largest obstacles to good health today?

The first one is getting caught up in our hectic world. To be healthy, we need to make a constant effort towards simplicity in our lives.

We end up in over-stressed lives because we’re trying to do too much. I would suggest looking at what’s meaningful and trimming the fat.

The second important thing is looking at everything that passes through our lips. Is it for our nutrition, or our entertainment?

Now hopefully we’re highly entertained by our nutrition, but there are those elements we know aren’t doing much for us besides entertaining our mouths and taste buds. The third one, and I’m going to frame it in the positive, is the willingness to accept that it’s a lot of homework to take care of ourselves, because we’re in a society that’s adverse to our health. There are various saboteurs, like how our environment is being polluted, all the technological advancements that come with their price tag, and the drugs that come with their side effects.

All of these things chip away at our health, and it takes very deep resolve to counter them.

What comes to mind is the label ‘health nut’. A lot of people have a hard time accepting that you really need to be a health nut to make a significant difference. MTW

It was an easy, simple, even elegant way for the LC board to show how they do whatever they can to be fair to respondents. Even department director Franklyn Silva supported the idea.

“It has its merits,” he told the board members at their Apr. 6 hearing. Silva even offered to set up the room for their next hearing to show them exactly what Collins was asking for, but the board members flatly rejected making any changes.

“I find no difference,” board member M. D. Alborano said, shrugging her shoulders and obviously scoffing at the idea that there was even the hint of an appearance of an inkling that board members deferred to LC staff and prosecution attorneys over responding liquor licensees.

“I feel the same way,” said board member Marilyn Chapman. “It doesn’t affect us.”

That’s how it was at the Feb. 9, 2006 Liquor Commission hearing—a general feeling of surprise that the Adjudication Board could in any way act unfairly towards licensees hauled before it.

“The consensus is no,” said Silva. “That’s no problem.”

And just like that, the whole table issue was over.

Big changes this week for A&B and Hawaiian Telcom, and all because of one tiny, little, otherwise insignificant Apr. 9 Honoulu Advertiser story on CEO pay. Alexander and Baldwin drops on news that they’re paying CEO Allen Doane nearly $5 million a year, making him the highest paid corporate guy in Hawai’i. But Carlyle Group’s Hawaiian Telcom rises a few notches on news that it pays CEO Michael Ruley slightly less than $2 million a year. “Excessive CEO pay takes dollars out of the pockets of shareholders—including the retirement savings of America’s working families,” states the AFL-CIO’s website. “Moreover, a poorly designed executive compensation package can reward decisions that are not in the long-term interests of a company, its shareholders and employees.” MTW

MAUICOUNTY WEDNESDAY, Apr. 12 Like the rising gas prices? Glad to hear it, because they’re going to be with us for some time. In fact, today’s Pacific Business News report says they’ll rise even higher!

You should believe them, too, because they say all the proof is in a new U.S. Department of Energy report—and you know those guys would never, ever lie about something sacred like the price of oil. “Continued steady world oil-demand growth, combined with only modest increase in world spare-oil production capacity and the continuing risks of geopolitical instability, are expected to keep crude-oil prices high through 2006,” the report says, according to PBN. The key phrase in that was, “continuing risks of geopolitical instability.” That’s U.S. Government-speak for “the Bush Administration’s foreign policy.” See, it turns out that a bloody quagmire in Iraq and secret plans to nuke Iran kinda spooked the oil market, which helped drive up prices. Way up. And since we’re still fighting a losing war in Iraq and threatening to “take out” Iran’s nuclear facilities, those prices have nowhere to go but up.

BY ANTHONY PIGNATARO ANTHONY@MAUITIME.COM

See, many months ago a lot of community and environmental activists agitated for a full environmental review of the proposed Superferry.

They wanted to look at the potentially increased traffic, pollution and invasive species contamination the superferries were going to bring. And you know what? Guys like state Representative Joe Souki kept their mouths shut during the fight and never publicly demanded a review, and the Superferry, Inc. people were able to fight it until the courts finally ruled that no such review was necessary. Now we have no review, which means no answers as to what “problems” the Superferry might bring to Hawai’i. Satisfied, Joe?

COCONUT WIRELESS THE WEEK IN REVIEW

FRIDAY, Apr. 14 See the front page of The Maui News today?

That shot of the ramshackle “tear down” in Wailuku that’s selling for $350,000? For realtors, news like that reinforces the view that they live in a golden age, a time they’ll be recounting to their grandkids decades from now. For the rest of us, especially young people with families who want their children to grow up with a dog and a backyard and maybe one of those complicated spring-loaded baseball hitting machines they market towards the “Serious T-Baller,” they’re pretty much out of luck.

THURSDAY, Apr. 13 So state Representative Joe Souki (D, 8th District), who represents Wailuku and Waiehu, wants to know if the proposed Superferry will cause any trouble. “I just would like to see what kind of potential problems, if any,” he said in today’s Honolulu Advertiser. Now I know Souki is not a dumb man, because he’s managed to get himself elected to office since 1982, and a dumb man certainly couldn’t sustain that kind of political career, and yet what Souki just said is a very dumb thing.

SATURDAY, Apr. 15 Woohoo! Tax Day!

SUNDAY, Apr. 16 Today the Honolulu Advertiser saw fit to update us on the progress of the still-unfinished nuclear-powered attack submarine USS Hawaii. See, it’s called Hawaii! Isn’t that cool!

They’ve named a new $2.4 billion warship after our lovely state. And it’s only 90 percent complete. The Pentagon is so thoughtful.

Anyway, the Advertiser more than returned

OVERHEARD...

“When did everyone start drinking water? I mean, have you noticed that people drink way more water than they used to? Who do you think is responsible for that?

NEWS

the generosity in its story. The new submarine “will be a key player for missions in waters increasingly prowled by potential enemy submarines,” the paper breathlessly reported.

“With it will come a greater ability to deliver commandos close to shore, and ever more quietly counter the threat of foreign diesel submarines.” This talk of enemy submarines prowling the world’s oceans makes for great spy novels, but not newspaper copy. See, the U.S. already has 73 nuclear-powered submarines, not counting the five—including the Hawaii—that are currently under construction. Of those 73, 14 are equipped to carry 24 Trident II D-5 nuclear missiles, any one of which is capable of killing a few million people. As far as the rest of the world is concerned, mighty Iran—you know, the country we keep casually talking about attacking?— currently has six diesel-powered submarines, which though quiet, lack our nuclear boats’

depth, speed, range and ability to stay underwater indefinitely. Even China, which fields 74 submarines, has just seven nuclear-powered boats. As far as the rest of the world is concerned, it’s not hard to imagine where most people think the “threat” lies.

MONDAY, Apr. 17 We’ve still got months and months—five months, five days to be exact—before the Hawai’i state Primary Election, and U.S. Congressman Ed Case (D, 2nd District) is already throwing around mud in his bid to unseat U.S. Senator Daniel Akaka (D, Hawai’i), recently derided by Time Magazine as one of “America’s Worst Senators,” the “master of the minor resolution and the bill that dies in committee.” But Case is threatening to do the worst thing a politician can possibly conceive of, unless Akaka gives into his demands immediately and unconditionally: “Senator Akaka has not gotten into a joint appearance with me since the day I announced my candidacy,” Case told a crowd today at Hawai’i Pacific University, according to the Associated Press. “I’m going to keep talking until the people make their choice. At some point, he’s going to have to respond.” Is Case bluffing? Or has he gone mad with power?

Could he conceivably keep flapping his gums until Akaka relents and agrees to a debate?

And what’s more, could the rest of us survive such an onslaught of relentless, unforgiving, unending campaign speech? Oh Akaka, please debate Case now—while we still have time!

TUESDAY, Apr. 18 And now for something a little more serious.

Today, we stand at the threshold of correcting an old injustice, and we need everyone to help out.

You see, Hawai’i lacks an official fish. Sure, once we had the Humuhumunukunukuapua’a, but its “official” status was revoked in 1990 after a nasty scandal that’s well known and needs no elaboration here. But now, there’s a bill in the state Legislature to give the Humuhumunukunukuapua’a back its mandate from heaven. Call your representatives, people! In fact, call Case and get him to talk abot this!

Butte, Mont., has long been unhappy with the presence of the Berkeley Pit, a huge, putrid, toxic lake filled by runoff from arsenic, copper, cadmium, cobalt, iron and zinc mines. Last year, however, the town began to figure out that tourists would actually pay to see the 500-acre, 900-foot-deep, foul, wretched mess. Attendance was so good that the admission price was recently increased.

In work by various labs in the United States, the Netherlands and Australia (reported by Toronto’s Globe and Mail in March), meat was grown in test tubes, and such dishes may yet be a staple in progressive kitchens. “Before bed, throw starter cells and a package of growth medium into the (coffee maker-sized) meat maker and wake up to harvestfresh sausage for breakfast,” wrote the papers.

Engineered meat would taste like beef or pork, but could be created to be as healthful as salmon. One private group told researchers it was interested in growing human meat, but funding for any of the work will be difficult, said a Medical University of South Carolina scientist.

The apparently successful Iraq Insurance Co. (a state-owned firm with 50 salespeople nationwide) is thought to be the only company in the world to offer “off-the-shelf” terrorism life insurance (paying a bodyguard’s beneficiary, for example, the equivalent of about $3,500, which is a policeman’s yearly salary, for a $90 premium, according to a New York Times dispatch). As of midMarch, no policyholder had been killed.

In February, the Missourian newspaper reported that Columbia resident Adam Ballard, 22, now in his second year in the Army, is overeating and under-exercising so as to gain weight rapidly and exceed the Army’s body-fat requirement, which will force his discharge rather than his deployment to the Middle East war zone. According to The Columbian, 3,285 soldiers were discharged for excess body fat in 2004 (although not all were war-zone shirkers).

Ballard said he had no qualms because recruiters had originally assured him a desk job. MTW

Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology are working on a high-tech device with seemingly a multitude of uses in lessening our crushing overload of banality: a boredom detector. A talker, via a wearable camera and software that measures facial expressions and movements, could know whether he has lost touch with a listener (via signals from eyebrows, lips, nose, etc.). The device was designed for the autistic (who are typically oblivious of other people’s reactions), but would be useful to anyone underskilled at being interesting. So far, the software is said to be accurate 64 percent of the time, according to a March report in New Scientist.

very flu season pregnant women and infants get deluged with a flurry of warnings to get vaccinated.

These advisories come from the National Immunization Program (NIP), which is run by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).The warnings are useful,but usually don’t say that many vaccines are tainted with thimerosal, a form of mercury that’s used as a cheap preservative. “[M]ercury can be very harmful to the brain and even small amounts can damage a brain that is just starting to grow,” states an informational guideline issued by the Hawai’i Department of Health.“That’s why young children, unborn and breast-fed babies are at the most risk.Too much mercury may affect a child’s behavior and lead to learning problems later in life.”

Mercury is a neurotoxin, and it’s well known that pregnant women should limit their consumption of many fish because they contain levels of mercury that can harm fetuses.But few advise pregnant women to avoid the flu vaccine.

An easy way to protect pregnant women and children is to pass a law prohibiting the use of mercury in vaccines.

Late last year, state legislators tried to do exactly that.Their proposed law, SB 3216, aimed to prohibit the use of mercury containing vaccines throughout the state. But that bill died in the state Senate Health Committee.The reason was simple: committee chairwoman Rosalyn Baker refused to hear it.

Baker represents Maui’s 5th District,which stretches from Makena to Kapalua.“We don’t need this legislation,” she said.

“Virtually all vaccines are made without mercury.The mercury [used] is not the kind the FDA warns about.The medical evidence, Department of Health and the pediatrics community do not support this bill.”

In fact,there is growing scientific evidence that vaccine mercury is dangerous.It’s also more than a mere curiosity that both Baker and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) have accepted financial contributions from major vaccine manufacturers.

E

here has been much debate in the scientific community regarding ethyl mercury, which is used in vaccines as a preservative called thimerosal. Methyl mercury is undeniably toxic—there are strict standards governing exposure limits. Many believe the same restrictions should govern ethyl mercury.

In 1997, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) realized the amount of ethyl mercury infants were getting dosed with through vaccines exceeded the EPA limit for methyl mercury. In fact, during the 1990’s American six-month-olds received on average 187.5 micrograms of ethyl mercury through their vaccinations. Federal health officials have conceded that this exceeded the EPA threshold of 0.1 micrograms per kilogram of bodyweight. Compounding the problem is the fact that unborn babies can accumulate mercury in their tissues at levels up to 70 percent higher than their mothers.

“The Influenza vaccine appears to be the sole remaining vaccine given to children in the U.S. on a regular basis that contains thimerosal,” concluded a three-year investigation by the Committee on Government Reform into vaccines in 2003.“Two formulations recommended for children 6 months or older continue to contain trace amounts of thimerosal.Thimerosal should be removed from these vaccines.No amount of mercury is appropriate in any childhood vaccine.”

The problem continues to this day. In fact, on Feb. 9 of this year, the Honolulu Advertiser reported that one in five women of childbearing age had levels of mercury higher than the EPA’s recommended limit and “suggests that Hawai’i’s residents may be at even greater risk.”

Efforts to control vaccine mercury date back nearly a decade.“My first reaction was simply disbelief, which was the reaction of almost everybody involved in vaccines,” wrote Neal Halsey,chairman of the AAP’s Committee on Infectious Diseases from 1995 to 1999, in the Nov. 10, 2002 New York Times Magazine.“In most vaccine containers, thimerosal is listed as a mercury derivative, a hundredth of a percent. And what I believed, and what everybody else believed, was that it was truly a trace, a biologically insignificant amount.My honest belief is that if the labels had had the mercury content in micrograms, this would have been uncovered years ago. But the fact is, no one did the calculation.”

In July of 1999,Halsey urged the AAP to demand that vaccine manufacturers remove

By Jen Russo Mercury and Autism Every U.S. state has seen triple digit increases in autism diagnoses since the 1990’s. Coincidence or not, that’s when the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommended a cocktail of vaccines containing thimerosal for infants and children. Previous diagnosis rates for autism were just one in 2,500. Today they stand at one in 166.

While no thimerosal link to autism has been scientifically proven, several studies have indicated a possible relationship.

In October 2001, the Institute of Medicine’s Vaccine Safety Committee found that it is biologically plausible that thimerosal could be related to neurodevelopmental delays in some children. But their 2004 study refuted this, claiming there was no link and advised against further study.

“This report has dragged the Institute of Medicine under a cloud of controversy that has currently engulfed the CDC,” said U.S. Congressman and medical doctor Dave Weldon (R, Florida) on the 2004 IOM study. “Much like the famous 1989 study by the National Institute of Child and Human Development which missed the link between folic acid deficiencies and neural tube defects like spina bifida, the epidemiologic studies reviewed by the IOM in drawing these findings could easily have missed an association in susceptible populations.”

Weldon has been outspoken on the issue of thimerosal. “If it is shown that mercury in vaccines has hurt children it will go down as one of the biggest blunders in modern medical history,” he told the Kansas City Star in October 2005.

Another study, done in June, 2002 by Tom Verstraeten of the CDC, analyzed the vaccine database and found that thimerosal appeared to be responsible for the dramatic increase in autism. At a closed-door

meeting of government scientists, health officials and pharmaceutical representatives, Verstraeten unfolded his findings to considerable concern. Yet when Verstraeten’s study was published three years later, his findings were far less certain. But by then, he was working for GlaxoSmithKline.

Other preliminary studies like the one appearing in the March, 2006 Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons shows the rate of neurodevelopmental disorders in children has actually decreased following removal of mercury from American vaccines. Indeed, the Los Angeles Times reported last July that the numbers of newly diagnosed cases of autism in California seems to be declining. California was among the first states banning thimerosal in vaccines.

Hawai’i’s own autism numbers have risen along with the rest of the nation. In 1993 there were just 64 diagnosed cases. By 2002, that number had risen to 528.

mercury as quickly as possible.They didn’t.The CDC has behaved erratically on the issue, despite the fact that the same month Halsey made his recommendation the drug manufacturer SmithKline Beecham offered enough thimerosal-free vaccines to supply the U.S. market. The CDC rejected SmithKline’s offer, only to reverse course a year later and ask that all vaccines be thimerosal-free as soon as adequate supplies were available.

That was nearly six years ago. In the meantime, research has piled up suggesting that thimerosal can cause considerable medical problems.

In a 2005 National Institutes of Health (NIH) study, Dr.Thomas Burbacher found that thimerosal is actually more toxic to the brain than methyl mercury.In his study,infant primates dosed with vaccine level thimerosal were compared to those dosed with methyl mercury. Those exposed to thimerosal showed a much higher proportion of mercury in their brains than the methyl mercury infants—an astounding 71 percent compared to just 10 percent.

At Columbia University a research team led by Dr.Mady Hornig in 2004 found that dosing autoimmune-prone infant mice with thimerosal vaccines resulted in a number of bad effects including growth delay, reduced movement, and brain alterations.

Indeed,a disturbing rise in the number of autism cases has even been linked to possible thimerosal exposure (See “Autism and Mercury” for more on this). he real tragedy seems to be that the CDC just can’t get its act together. In 2003, the Committee on Government Reform found that the CDC’s failure to ask for mercury-free vaccines in 2000 and 2001 resulted in many children receiving the thimerosal-laced vaccine when alternatives were available. Indeed, a Mar. 1, 2006 Huffington Post article by environmental lawyer Robert F. Kennedy Jr. alleges that the CDC continues to send its top spokesman around the country to testify before state legislatures in hopes of derailing state efforts to ban mercury in vaccines.

One explanation for the CDC’s sluggish,if not outright hostile,attitude towards getting thimerosal out of vaccines seems to be nearly complete dominance by the pharmaceutical industry over Washington politics. During the Bush Administration, these firms have spent hundreds of millions of dollars on lobbyists and campaign contributions.

For them, the stakes are high: many of these firms have stockpiled huge inventories of thimerosal-laced vaccines.A CDC ban on them would cost the companies plenty.

A similar paralysis seems to grip the Hawai’i Department of Health.They’ve ordered mercury-free flu vaccines for children aged three and younger who are covered by state funded health care programs.

Yet the DOH rejects state legislation that would require mercury-free immunizations for everyone.

At first glance, the opposition to a vaccine bill by the American Academy of Pediatrics is surprising.

After all,AAP’s official policy states that,“mercury in all of its forms is toxic to the fetus and children and efforts should be made to reduce exposure to the extent possible to pregnant women and children.”

Yet the organization opposes attempts to end mercury use in vaccines. In a Feb. 11, 2006 letter to Representatives Josh Green (D, 6th District) and Dennis Arakaki (D, 30th District), AAP Vice President Galen Y.K. Chock, MD wrote that the bill could “Perpetuate false and misleading information that vaccines are not safe,”“Potentially result in on-going vaccine shortages,”“Lead to increased costs for vaccines,” “Add more complexity to our present vaccine delivery system” and “Unnecessarily expose our physicians to civil action and litigation.”

Baker said such opposition was critical in her reasoning behind letting SB 3216 die,and many of the issues AAP raises could have merit.Yet the AAP isn’t entirely objective where vaccines are concerned.

For many years, the AAP has received millions of dollars in financial support from vaccine manufacturers like Merck, GlaxoSmithKline and Sanofi Pasteur.Another opponent to local thimerosalfree vaccination legislation, the Immunization Action Coalition, has accepted money from Merck, GlaxoSmithKline, Sanofi Pasteur, Chiron and Wyeth Pharma.

Even our own state Senator Roz Baker doesn’t blanch when Big Pharma pulls out its checkbook.

Since 2004,campaign records show she’s received $4,000 from vaccine producer GlaxoSmithKline.

Ironically,while the AAP worries over potential vaccine shortages,Sanofi has said that they can make enough mercury-free vaccine to meet the needs of infants and pregnant women.The increased cost for a mercury-free flu vaccine is approximately $3.30,yet without state legislation mandating such vaccines, private health providers will not cover such expenses and insist on the thimerosal vaccines.

At least there’s precedent for action.Several states have successfully banned mercury in their vaccines:Iowa,California,New York,Illinois,Kansas,Delaware,Missouri and most recently Washington.

Around the world, Russia banned it 20 years ago. Japan, Great Britain, Denmark,Austria, Sweden, Finland and Norway have also ended thimerosal vaccine use in their countries.

In our nation’s capital,federal legislation concerning thimerosal has been limited to covering the interests of the big pharmaceutical companies. In fact, Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R, Tennessee)—who’s expected to run for President in 2008—and Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert (R, Illinois) slipped language into last year’s Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act, giving immunity to pharmaceutical companies from any claims of vaccine-induced injury.

President George W. Bush duly signed the act into law.

But there’s still hope for Hawai’i. SB 3216 may be dead, but SB 2133—which also prohibits mercury-laced vaccines—has taken its place.This new bill was recently approved by the Senate Finance Committee and will be heard in conference.What will happen next will depend on people like state Senator Roz Baker.

“Not one constituent has come forward in support of this bill,” said Baker.“The time for hearing measures is over.The Senate has taken its position.” MTW

The bills are also colored with customers’ names, creative designs and/or proclamations of how good they found the food.

If you’re dining in, it’s simply a matter of choosing a table and sitting down. The menus are already there and a friendly server will be along shortly to help you. If you are taking out, you need to go up to the counter and look down. The menu is conveniently laminated onto the counter so you can pick and choose right there at the register. Either way, they only accept cash.

A friend of mine told me the Korean Chicken was delectable. So when I stopped by recently I happily asked for it, only to find that they weren’t serving

Korean Chicken on that particular evening.

Instead, I ordered the fried saimin ($5.95) and the shrimp tempura plate ($9.95) from my pleasant young server. I spent only a few minutes reading through the dollars on the wall before the grub arrived.

The first thing I noticed was the massiveness of the fried saimin. It was packed with bits of fish cake, beef and chives. What’s more, the flavors of the classic dish were enhanced with the distinct flavor of brown sugar. It was yummy and I knew it would make for a great lunch the next day as well.

Moving on to the shrimp tempura plate, I discovered one scoop of mac salad, two scoops of white rice and five six-inch strips of fried shrimp. I love rice, and theirs is always good.

The mac salad was a blissful blend of chewy and creamy. The tempura was perfectly golden with a pliable center and crispy exterior.

Perfect comfort food, if you ask me.

I passed the smiling, laughing faces as I took my leave with my to-go boxes thinking to myself, “I have to come back for that Korean Chicken!” So the next time you are in Kihei (or near their new location in Kahului) and you feel like some local kine grinds, make a stop at Hanafuda. Oh, and on Friday and Saturday in Kihei, they stay open until 3 a.m.

Earth Day Trip Sunday, boat leaves Lahaina Harbor at 9 a.m., returns at 3 p.m.

[REEF CLEAN-UP] This Sunday’s Earth Day, and that means people everywhere will be doing the roadside trash clean-ups, recycling drives and a bunch of other helpful but terribly boring things. Why not help our environment and have a kick ass time? For those inclined to volunteer, Trilogy Excursions—the same local tour boat company that’s pioneering the art of not dumping raw sewage in the ocean— will be taking people out to Hulopo’e Beach Park on Lanai to clean up the reef. They’ll even provide snorkeling gear, trash bags and scuba tanks. It’s an all-day trip to LANAI, and it will cost nothing except your willingness to jump into the waters off Lanai and clean the reef. You should pack a lunch, too. Since this is free and open to the public, you should reserve a spot on the boat as soon as possible by calling 661-4743. [ANTHONY PIGNATARO]

[ISLAND ROCK/REGGAE REUNION] Oh, they’re back alright! And they’re ready to rock it out with original lead member Sam Green, the charismatic rasta with abs of—er, I mean, lungs of steel and a heart of gold. I don’t actually know if he has a heart of gold but he has a really nice smile. And he kicks major rhyming ass on the mic. Anyway, lovely ‘Ulalena alum Nara Boone will be joining lead vocals as well—you’ll recognize her powerful chops from Crazy Fingers’ Legalize Happiness CD. Plus, Merika Hunter will be adding her vox, along with bass master Bob Harrison, Franklin Russell on keys, Rick Bodinus on drums, and Crazy mastermind Scott Baird on guitar and lead vocals. It’s a reunion of the ubiquitous Crazy Fingers of yore—well, actually, the band of 19992001 that packed dance floors and helped facilitate at least one drunken journalist to lose her balance and crash into the microphone stand at one particular Christmas party that might’ve been at Compadres. At least, that’s what I heard.

[DJ] Some prefer ‘80s new wave or dancehall reggae, others country or salsa—and then there are the few who find Tuvan throat singing to be appropriate dance music. But if you’re into “funkyhousebeetz” then apparently you’ll be heading upcountry to our friendly Italian disco, Casanova.

Funkyhousebeetz is another way of saying “that solid funky chunky westcoast tech-house sound,” which is DJ-speak for cool shit you can dance to.

Sunn Lounge resident DJ’s Sal and Max will be joined by Nate Manic from Chicago, who has played alongside such electronic music luminaries as Derrick Carter and John Digweed, among others. For info, call 572-0220.

[REGGAE] Bob’s youngest son Damian “Junior Gong” Marley won two Grammys this year—one for Best Urban/Alternative Performance, and another for Best Reggae Album (Welcome to Jamrock, 2005). It’s an “urban reggae” album that features dancehall, hip-hop and R&B—club hits that also draw attention to the poverty and political violence that still overtake his homeland Jamaica. It’s the Marley consciousness, alive and well, but updated. He says, “We’re taking the baton from the elders who made rebel music—we’re new leaders of the old school.”

Opening the show will be popular “urban island” musicmaker O-shen, who blends New Guinea pidgin, rap, reggae and world music, and won a Na Hoku Hanohano award in 2001 with his debut album, Iron Youth. Tickets: $35 in advance, $40 day of show. Call 242-7469.

Honokowai Valley Exposed!

A Different Kind of Martini

Sunday, 5 p.m. at the Ka’anapali Beach Hotel’s Kanahele Room

Tuesday, 7-9:30 p.m., Maui Beach Hotel

[DOCUMENTARY] For the past six years, the volunteers that make up Maui Cultural Lands have been working very hard to restore the numerous and varied ancient Hawaiian archaeological sites along the Honokowai Stream in West Maui. The new film Passing the Gift: Malama Honokowai documents these efforts. “This film offers an inspiring view of Hawaiian culture flourishing in our own times,” Hawai’i Sierra Club chairperson Lucienne de Naie has said. “It shows how knowledge of Hawai’i’s past has a gift to offer all of us, Hawaiian or not.” And now you can see the film for free, though seating will be done on a first come, first served basis. For more information on the Honokowai restoration efforts, call 572-8085 or visit www.mauiculturallands.org. [ANTHONY PIGNATARO]

[MOTIVATIONAL] I’ve noticed that almost everyone on the island has at least two jobs. When I speak to friends on the mainland, they ask me why I work so much when I live in paradise. It’s an excellent question. I dream of a day when I can have two days off in a row and not stress about making all of my bills on time. Dr. Demartini seems to have the answer. He’s given lectures throughout the world and has made it here to share with us. In his free lecture, you can get a taste of his principals. Some of which are; Do not try to receive something for nothing, or try to give something for nothing; Desperate people do desperate things, while inspired people do inspired things, and; Make your spiritual life a business and your business life a spiritual experience. It sounds like a good start to me. And remember, there is no “i” in team, but there are two in (De)martini. For info, call 8758820 or check out the website www.drdemartini.com. [HEIDI KING]

Cindy Sheehan Sunday, 8 p.m. at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center’s Castle Theater [POLITICAL RALLY] Don’t know if you’ve noticed, but Cindy Sheehan is really controversial. More controversial than most private citizens—hell, more controversial than public officials who’ve taken bribes or shot an old man in the face. But I digress—Sheehan just pisses people off. And when I say “people,” I naturally mean “those right-wingers who think dissent is treason and anyone who doesn’t think our president’s flimsy evidence and mangled syntax are justification enough to invade Middle Eastern countries is a traitor.” See, Sheehan committed the cardinal sin of grieving over her son’s death in Iraq by publicly attacking the war that killed him. See how cavemen like Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh might see her as a monster? Anyway, you can see her live and unplugged this weekend for free. For more information, call 573-3255.

Pop Noir Josh Hartnett gets lucky Josh Hartnett (Sin City) indulges in a snappy tongue-in-cheek puzzle of a thriller that’s akin to eating 10 flavors of ice cream. A fast twitch opening sequence torn from the pages of Tarantino’s playbook introduces Bruce Willis as a cunning and calm assassin with the gift of gab.

FILM

Before you can say, “Kansas City shuffle,” Mr. Goodkat (Willis) has laid out a flashback murder-filled tale of familial tragedy brought on by a father’s misguided attempt to bet on a mob-fixed horse race. The fact that Mr. Goodkat tells the story to his next victim before dispatching him in public hints at the misdirection that 28-year-old screenwriter Jason Smilovic uses to lure the audience deeper into the folds of his angular story.

Happy-go-lucky Slevin (Hartnett) gets mouthy with a mugger upon his arrival in Manhattan and suffers a broken nose for his troubles. Undeterred Slevin is precariously cavalier when he’s abducted from his friend Nick’s New York apartment by mob thugs who escort the man they think is Nick to meet the Boss (Morgan Freeman).

Some of Slevin’s insouciant demeanor might be attributed to his lusty meeting with Nick’s immodest wannabe detective neighbor Lindsey (Lucy Liu). The Boss informs the identity-challenged Slevin that he has three days to either pony up $96,000 or bump off his mob rival Schlomo a.k.a. the Rabbi (Ben Kingsley) who visibly lives in a penthouse directly across the street from the Boss in his posh New York digs.

Things enter the realm of screwball comedy when Slevin is taken by Schlomo’s thugs to meet with the Rabbi who also demands that the man he thinks is Nick perform a murderous duty. A cutesy romance grows between Slevin and Lindsey under the slapstick surveillance of police detective Brikowski (Stanley Tucci).

Tucci, who has made a career out of just such roles, pokes fun at his typecasting by keeping his character’s intentionality feather light. His performance is so transparent that it barely registers. Lucy Liu, on the other hand, practically dances through her performance with a sharp presence that becomes central to the story when her occupation as a coroner attracts some excessively negative attention from the smarmy Mr. Goodkat.

Slevin conducts a private killing spree that necessarily exposes the cryptic identities of his victims and his own personal motivations while enlisting the assistance of Mr. Goodkat.

The set-piece murders are splashy stylistic affairs rendered with deliberate visual style under Scottish director Paul McGuigan.

McGuigan worked wonders with the gritty British gangland movie Gangster Number 1 (2000) but seemed to lose his way on his next two genre disasters The Reckoning and Wicker Park. It’s too soon to predict if McGuigan will channel his evident energy, eye for detail, and facility with actors into a meaningful career but he clearly has what it takes.

Lucky Number Slevin is slushy as a piece of post-Tarantino candy noir, but it draws congruity from the polished skills of its highly compatible cast. It’s a movie star showcase with plenty of spunky one-liners and plottwists that make you feel a little bit smarter and luckier than you really are. The movie loses some of its overblown cleverness and humor in a drawn-out third act that delivers an anti-climatic ending thanks to one cliché too many. Young audiences will never even notice.

SHOWTIMES

MOVIECAPSULES Maui Film Festival’s Candlelight Cinema Sunday, April 23 SIR! NO SIR! - (Unrated) - Documentary - The little known tale of how thousands of American GIs rebelled against the Vietnam War in the 1960s and helped change the course of U.S. history and society. “Combines exceptional artistry and insightful analysis with great storytelling,” noted the prestigious International Documentary Association.

Variety raves "a penetrating eye-opener!" 84 min.

Wednesday, April 26 JOYEUX NOEL - (R) - Foreign, Drama - A "deeply moving and uplifting drama with humor, bold gestures and bittersweet consequences," noted the Hollywood Reporter about this Academy Award Best Foreign Language Film nominee from France.

Inspired by a true story which occurred in the trenches of the World War I battlefield on Christmas Eve in 1914, when French, Scottish and German soldiers agreed to stage their own one day Christmas Eve and Christmas Day peace. 110 min.

New This Week AMERICAN DREAMZ - (PG13) - Comedy - Dennis Quaid plays the “out of touch” President (much like Bush) that goes on everyone’s favorite show. Hugh Grant plays the producer of “American Dreamz” (much like American Idol). I wonder what Simon would tell Bush if he were on the show. (Heidi King) FRIENDS WITH MONEY - (R) - Comedy - Jennifer Anniston and Joan Cusack lead an ensemble cast portraying the plight of upper-class, West Coast gals on the brink of going Middle-Age Crazy. No animals were harmed in the making of this motion picture. 88 min. (Will Watkins) THE SENTINEL - (PG 13) - Thriller - Think In the Line of Fire meets The Fugitive with a little 24 thrown in, kinda. Michael Douglas plays a veteran Secret Service agent wrongly accused of conspiring to kill the President and Keifer Sutherland plays his protégé charged with bringing him—the wrongfully accused agent, not the President— down, I think. I have a headache. 108 min.

(Anthony Pignataro) SILENT HILL - (R) - Horror - A little girl does some sleepwalking and talks about a place she’s never been. So her mother decides it’ll help the girl if they go to the place, a town called Silent Hill. The girl goes missing and her mom has to go up against the forces of evil. Moms are hardcore when it comes to their babies. 127 min. (HK)

Now Showing ATL - (PG13) - Comedy, Drama - A 17-year-old has to assume the position of man of the house. His younger brother is getting into a bad scene and his only joy is going to the hip hop rollerskating rink and being with his girlfriend. I think it’s going to be a cross of Saturday Night Fever and Boyz in the Hood. 105 min. (HK) THE BENCHWARMERS - (PG13) - Comedy, Sports - It’s Revenge of the Nerds meets Bad News Bears in this tale of dorks overcoming all, starring Rob Schneider, a pack of SNL alumni, and that guy from Napoleon Dynamite. Mel the Millionaire Nerd hatches a plan to form a team of pariahs to do bat-

If It’s

I need to take the bus more often tle against the toughest little league team in the state and enlists the aid of Gus and his misfit friends, Ritchie and Clark. Gus’ prowess on the diamond earns him the adoration of the dweeb masses, but what happens when they learn that he was once a bully? I think I smell Oscar. 87 min. (WW) FAILURE TO LAUNCH - (PG13) - Comedy, Romance Matthew McConaughey and Sarah Jessica Parker star. It reminds me of How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days.

McConaughey (Tripp) is charming and sexy and doesn’t want to commit. Parker is a Professional Motivator who’s hired by Tripp’s parents to get him to finally leave the nest. But have they finally stumbled upon their soulmates?!? 96 min. (HK) FINAL DESTINATION 3 - (R) - Thriller, Horror - Follows the same storyline as the first two. High school girl predicts a tragic incident, this time it’s a roller coaster accident, then it happens. The people she convinced to not ride the ride now have to try and cheat death again and again and again... 92 min. (HK) ICE AGE 2: THE MELTDOWN - (PG) - Adventure, Comedy, Animation - I’m sorry but I loved the first one.

Suprisingly, the sequel may just be up to par. They’ve got the original voices for this unlikely group of pre-historic animals as they cope with a new set of rules due to the ice, y’know, melting. 90 min. (HK) INSIDE MAN - (R) - Crime, Thriller - Directed by Spike Lee, this heist-that-may-not-be-a-heist picture stars Denzel Washington, Clive Owen, Jodie Foster and Willem Dafoe. You tell me if it’ll be good. 129 min. (AP) LARRY THE CABLE GUY: HEALTH INSPECTOR (PG13) - Comedy - Larry the Cable Guy stars as the Good Ol’ Boy health inspector in the big city who spends his days frequenting blue-collar restaurants, mixing with regulars and generally perpetuating the redneck stereotype.

His routine comes to a screeching halt with the arrival of his new by-the-book partner and a sinister case of food poisonings at one of the most posh restaurants in the

city. His reckless methods of investigation appall diners, charms a waitress, and gets him fired, prompting Larry to dust off a fresh bag of “Git-R-Done,” and go undercover to crack the case. Somewhere in Hollywood, a team of chimps thought this was a great idea. 89 min. (WW) LUCKY NUMBER SLEVIN - R - Thriller, Crime, Gangster - Josh Hartnett stars as Slevin, the victim of both an unfortunate name as well a case of mistaken identity, who finds himself in the crossfire of two warring New York Crime Bosses known as The Rabbi (Ben Kingsly) and The Boss (Morgan Freeman). To further complicate matters, he must also stay one step ahead of the dogged Detective Brikowski (Stanley Tucci) and the nefarious assassin Goodkat (Bruce Willis). Wackiness ensues. 110 min. (WW) PHAT GIRLS - (PG13) - Comedy - Mo’Nique Imes plays a fashion designer who wants to sell trendy but plussized clothes and then wins a trip to Palm Springs where she meets a hot Nigerian doctor. Could happen.

Happened to my cousin. I mean, we all think that’s what happened, but we’re not sure because we never found the body. 93 min. (AP) SCARY MOVIE 4 - (PG 13) - Comedy - The fourth installment of the popular horror movie-spoof series… Wait, there was a Scary Movie 3? Really? Who was—ah, forget it. Directed by David Zucker, this one stars Leslie Nielson, Anna Faris and that Dr. Phil guy. 100 min.

(Anthony Pignataro) SHE’S THE MAN - (PG13) - Comedy, Romance - A teenage girl poses as her twin brother at a new school.

It’s a love octagon with everyone crushing on somebody else, teenage angst, confusion and sexual awkwardness.

Amazingly, it might actually be funny. 105 min. (HK) SLITHER - (R) - Thriller - Something evil is lurking beneath the genteel charm of a small town... Pets start missing, and the rich guy’s acting weird... (Does this movie take place on Maui or what?) As events get more gruesome, the Sheriff and his team resolve to stop the mysterious dark force... (A dark force called “Overdevelopment,” maybe?!) 96 min. (Samantha Campos) STAY ALIVE - (PG13) - Horror, Thiller - There will be no disco dancing in this one. Video game fiends get their paws on a new game that hasn’t been released to the public. Oddly, as gamers die on the screen, they turn up dead in the real world. 85 min. (HK) TAKE THE LEAD - (PG13) - Drama, Biopic - Antonio Banderas plays a ballroom teacher/competitor who volunteers his services to New York inner city high school kids. They know how to work it already, but to hip hop.

Caring is sharing, so each will learn the other’s type of dance moves. In doing so, building one of those tearjerking bonds. I’m all choked up already. 108 min. (HK) V FOR VENDETTA - (R) - Sci-Fi, Action, Drama - A masked vigilante (Hugo Weaving) known only as “V” rescues a young woman (Natalie Portman) to join him in a struggle against the force of oppression that is the totalitarian government of the future. 132 min. (SC) THE WILD - (G) - Animation, Family - A young lion is transported to Africa from the New York City zoo...by mistake.

Then freed, also by mistake. His loving ‘ohana from the zoo band together to try to locate and bring him back.

Does anyone else think this seems a lot like Madagascar?

The difference is this is Disney and that was Dreamworks.

Kinda like A Bugs Life and Antz. 94 min. (HK) WORLD’S FASTEST INDIAN - (PG13) - Adventure, Drama - In this biopic, Anthony Hopkins plays Burt Munro, a 68-year old Kiwi and damned fool who rebuilds a 1920s Indian motorcycle into a racer capable of taking on the land speed record at the Bonneville Salt Flats. 127 min.

Sandow Birk Goes to Hell ‘Divine Comedy’ may have started with Dante, but Birk’s made the circles of heaven and hell his own Sandow Birk’s name gets dropped a lot in Southern California. People want to be around one of those guys for whom everything seems to come easy: his Guggenheim and Fulbright fellowships; his jet-setting to Rio, Morocco and Paris; his girlfriend who actually looks like Salma Hayek, but with more delicate features, which is wrong in so many ways.

He’s boyish, he’s handsome (the drag queens in Silver Lake call him “Mandow,” with their patented drag queen purr), and he’s a bloody genius. When he gets a MacArthur genius grant—and you know it’s coming—I will not be happy for him, not even at all.

You can smell the envy at one of Birk’s exhibit openings.

It smells of sulphur.

“In Smog and Thunder: The Great War of the Californias,” which opened in 2000, was the then-36-yearold Birk’s second solo show at the Laguna Art Museum.

More than 80 works were crammed in, including inspirational posters begging Angelenos to unite and soliciting war bonds and “Porno Wanted for Our Men in Camp,” while Birk’s text commemorated the deeds of such heroes as Captain Chun Yeong Chang’s tireless battalion of 11-yearold computer programmers and recounted such trenchant details as the gas stations along Interstate 5 running out of beer and Fritos during the South’s drive on San Fran, while the cash machines ran out of twenties.

The history of the war included both personal accounts— a bitter General Gomez ceded the Valley to the Northern invaders, sneering, “Let the bastards burn”; hemp farmers in Big Sur mistook the invading Southerners for DEA agents— and all kinds of “flankings” and “strategic maneuvers” and “maritime assaults” and other boy things like that. Two artists I knew vowed never to set brush to canvas again.

But for a while after, Birk struggled for a proper second act.

Local artists were quietly gleeful when his very beautiful “Prisonation” series—PoMo appropriations of Hudson River School painters, with verdant landscapes containing all the state’s prisons, unthreatening in the distance—didn’t get much traction. Although his painting—which had been sort of clumsy and flat—had improved in skill and technique, the series was subtle and would never be the blockbuster “In Smog and Thunder” had been.

Then came “Dante’s Inferno,” a project for which his buddy Marcus Sanders adapted the Italian text into surf-speak and for which Birk provided dozens of small, black-and-white illustrations based on the etchings of Gustave Dore. While his PostModern appropriations of earlier artists were back in force, along with his fascination with the consumer detritus of 7Elevens and strip malls, the work was a little bit boring and still

not as imaginative as “In Smog and Thunder.” That, after all, had come wholly from his own beautiful mind, like Athena sprung from Zeus, and didn’t require an earlier source to make his story for him.

His fellows were pleased.

But now the teeth-gnashing and hair-tearing have begun again—and with even more reason.

I’m sorry to report that the elements of everything Birk has done up to now have coalesced into an even finer project. His painting is better and more full-bodied. His alternate universe is just as imaginative and with just as much sly detail. “Sandow Birk’s Divine Comedy” may have started with Dante, but Birk’s made the circles of heaven and hell his own.

Large canvases explode like magma, huge, detailed depictions of the cityscapes—always cityscapes—that are stand-ins for paradise, purgatory and the inferno. There is no bucolic, pastoral heaven here; instead, it’s John Winthrop’s shining city on a hill. Heaven is impacted with traffic, and the multitudes of souls on their escalators and wandering through a Hong Konglike neonorama make you feel infinitesimally small and soulless yourself. It’s even still kind of grimy.

The Hollywood sign reads “Purgatorio,” and you look from behind it down into a chasm of flame and liquor stores, with Virgil by your side. The Minotaur Lamb Shack offers shawarma.

Those big canvases, bloody with color and appropriated from images by Brueghels and others, enslave your interest so that you are willing to make the effort of going around each of the small etching-like drawings, with their thick black-and-white hatch marks, that made up Birk’s original tomes.

All that, and a feature film, too: it will star James Cromwell (Famer Hoggett from Babe) as Virgil. Birk will win the jury prize at all his festivals and be richer and more famous than he is now.

The MacArthur genius folks will get his number and give him a jingle. And the envy will seep from our pores like fat on an Atkins dieter.

Go ahead. Go see his show. You won’t be happy for him, not even a little.

CAERIEL CRESTIN

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20)

It’s not like the idea you’re trying to push is all that radical. In fact, you know in your gut that its time has come. It’s just the natural next step in a progression that’s been happening for years.

Nevertheless, you’re bound to encounter some deep resistance from some staunch advocates of stability who have dug in their heels and refuse to accept inevitable change. The danger is that you might identify with them—having so often advocated tradition, permanence, or just solid core values—so much that you might ease up on them. Don’t. This change will come regardless—but it’ll work out a lot better with you spearheading it.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)

Some great qualities skip generations. It’s part of the pendulum swing of rebelling against your parents. That means that in some ways you might have more in common with your grandparents (or at least how they were when they were your age) than your parents. This is why I suggest looking to them for guidance and/or inspiration this week, when you’re uncertain about your next step.

Find out what they were like when they were younger, before they were grandparents (or even parents)—by asking them (if they’re still alive), or by plumbing photos and letters (if they’re not). Your answers and motivation lie there.

33 N. Market St,Ste.201 Wailuku

Honolua Surf Co. is now hiring:

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)

The days I can force myself to get up and write first thing—before breakfast, even—are the days I get the most done. I won’t say it’s easy, though, to drag myself out of bed and compel myself to immediately be creative and productive. My natural instinct is to loaf around, eat and prepare for my day. Pursuing that course, however, sometimes means that it can be an hour or more before I get anything done at all. Use next week’s Taurus New Moon to add a new trick into your repertoire: early morning productivity. Give yourself a block of time—just 15 minutes, even—before anything else, in which to do something creative, or just get something done. You’ll be psyched at how easy it is to be brilliant and productive the rest of the day, after that.

Managers, Assistant Managers, Supervisors, Full and Part time Sales We offer competitive pay, generous employee discount, 401K plan, Medical and Dental insurance, and opportunity for career advancement.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)

You need more life in your life, more living things around you right now—more companions, more plants, more animals—all with their own agendas and lives that overlap with yours. It’ll help keep you from getting trapped in boring, self-involved, self-destructive patterns, which is all too great a danger at the moment. Most of your worst problems are self-inflicted, and they happen most often when your plate is less than full, leaving too much free time to subconsciously come up with ways to sabotage yourself. Go buy an aquarium, or some houseplants, or host dinner parties all week, or find some other way to make your plate feel full.

Apply at any of our Maui locations: Front Street, Cannery Mall, Whalers Village, South Kihei, Shops at Wailea Or fax resume to: 667-2875

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)

I miss having Virgos in my life. I’ve pretty much always had one or more close by, until my most recent chapter, which has been marked by a deplorable dearth of vivacious Virgos. So what? Sucks for me, but what does it matter? Well, I’m not the only one missing your unique and inspiring vibe.

People everywhere are on the hunt for a valuable Virgo. Whether or not you have room in your life for a new friend or chosen family member is up to you. But if you decide that could be kind of nice, they’re out there, looking. Just ask around.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)

This week could be like being able to go on a shopping spree with someone else’s money.

That’s a fantasy every Libra can appreciate it, isn’t it? But beware—nothing’s really for free, and the kinds of sacrifices or concessions you’d be forced to make for this dubious privilege might not be worth the glee of so much frivolous spending. The temptation is terrible, I know, and you’re not generally one to look a gift horse in the mouth—but make an exception this time, please. There are strings and more strings attached. Unless you’ve got some kind of bondage fetish, say, “Thanks, but no thanks.”

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)

What started out as a carefree roll in the hay has suddenly become so much more—and not in a good way. It’s as if the hay were at the top of a steep, rocky hill, and your initially gentle tumble has become a painful, unstoppable plunge down the slope. This week, though, you may have the chance to catch yourself on a ledge or protruding branch. This is your chance to extricate yourself without doing much further injury to either of you. Unfortunately, the temptation to continue this disastrous nose-dive is likely to be perversely greater than ever. Resist, though, Scorpio. For everyone’s sake, find a way to resist.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)

When I need to motivate myself to really clean and reorganize my apartment, I invite people over.

Left to my own devices, I get a bit done, then my laziness takes over and I leave the job unfinished.

But if I know people are coming by, that’s all the incentive I need to really get the whole place into shape. Follow my lead. You’re in need of a little impetus that you’re unable to provide for yourself.

This is not the time to let procrastination or your infamous laidback attitude mess you up. Use whatever tricks you’ve got up your sleeve to get your own ass in gear.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19)

Perhaps you’re too preoccupied with other things right now, because all the usual methods of getting you excited and involved with the present moment are frustratingly falling a bit short. Those around you are also at a loss as to how to get your attention. What do we need to do to get you to snap out of it, Cap? This is not only frustrating, it’s ridiculous. Really, what would it take for you to be fully present in the here and now? A mountain of gold? True love? An alien invasion? Whatever it is, you might as well ask for it—most of us are so fed up with your distraction that we just might get it for you.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18)

Where are the kids? You’re sorely in need of some playful, innocent fun, so hanging with your nieces and nephews or any other of the sweet little brats in your life would be a fantastic way to spend your week. It would help you remember to smile a lot more, to practice more patience and kindness, and to simply relax and be silly—these are things you’ve sort of forgotten, of late. Even just hanging out by a playground (as creepy as that sounds, it doesn’t have to be evil-intentioned) could help you remember what you need to remember.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20)

Supposedly, since you’re the last sign in the zodiac wheel, you’ve gone through all the other signs on your way to where you are. You’ve been there and done that. But I’m here to remind you, oh wise one: the thing’s a wheel. That means you’re getting ready to jump back into the first sign in the zodiac, Aries, and do the whole thing over. Many Pisceans, in fact, become much more Ramlike in the course of their lives (consequently having a much easier time making decisions!). This week, in preparation for your next chapter, act as much like an Aries as possible: when considering options, always choose the rashest, loudest, boldest, and most outrageous one. You’ll probably wonder why you didn’t start doing that before.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)

You don’t always understand things or people who derive their power from being rooted, immovable and solid. Your strength comes from your movement, energy and drive. But as versatile as you are, there come moments when you really need someone with roots sunk deep, who’s strong because they never change and are reliable and hyper-responsible. When some kind of destructive wave of change sweeps through, your strength might keep you from drowning, but not from being swept away. This, my lovable Ram, is one of those dangerous times. Find the biggest tree (in human form) you can, wrap your arms around it, and hang on with all your might.

HOLOHOLOGIRL

BY SAMANTHA CAMPOS SAM@MAUITIME.COM

What Cats Do When the Mice Are Away Happiness is the sublime moment when you get out of your corsets. – Edith Wharton

3 GUYS a computer and stacks of CD’s KINKY

Monkey Spankers

There are two things that happen when I tell my guy friends what I did last weekend. First, their eyes light up. That’s when I pause to let it sink in—watching the light bulb go on as they imagine the possibilities. And I might even give them an enigmatic smile, you know, for dramatic effect.

Then they’ll inevitably voice what all men think women do, once out of earshot of our male counterparts.

“So did you talk shit about guys the whole time?”

Well, not the whole time. In fact, the six of us girls who spent the night in a cabin in Wainapanapa last Friday hardly talked about guys at all. Surprisingly, we did have other topics of conversation. More meaningful stuff—the intellectual fabric of philosophers and world leaders; the moral discussion of feminists, geneticists and cab drivers; the spiritual discourse of yogis, rabbis and defrocked priests…

“Who tooted?” was the question most asked at our all-girls retreat.

“Wasn’t me!” and “If I did, I’d stand up proud!” were the oft-used answers.

But mostly, we just ate—and drank—a lot. It was grrrreat!

I arrived last, as usual, cutting out late from work on Friday to make the curvy “front way” solo trek to Hana at night in Sasha’s borrowed lounge-on-wheels, “Montclair.”

Although I had a hard time not imagining how different the trip might’ve been in my old, now-charbroiled Jeep, I did enjoy Montclair’s plush interior and hi-fi stereo system. I also would’ve greatly enjoyed knowing how to turn on the four-wheel drive option, as I careened backwards down a steep, muddy driveway of an unoccupied cabin en route to the girls’ reassigned (but apparently nobody could call to tell me) abode.

Once I finally found them, the girls greeted me drowsily (it was 7:30 p.m.) with red wine and platefuls of spaghetti, chicken, potato salad, cookies, brownies and colorful plastic Easter eggs filled with jellybeans. While I gorged, they regaled me with tales of their afternoon’s adventures.

After suffering through a stern gatekeeper, a pervy tourist dad, and being seen in public with Jen and her pants that made her look like she had elephantiasis of a non-existent nutsack, the girls eventually made it to a serene freshwater pool nearby.

They said the pool was part of the Wainapanapa Caves where, legend has it, Princess Popoalaea hid from her abusive husband, who ultimately found her and killed her. Dead.

“That was mean,” said one girl, shaking her head.

“It must’ve been an arranged marriage,” said another. “Thank God we don’t do that anymore.”

“I dunno,” said yet another girl. “I’d appreciate the help—it might eliminate some of the legwork! You know, like, ‘Oh, you think he’s good for me? Okay. I’ve picked some doozies before, maybe you know better.’”

We all sat on the deck, watching the moon, listening to crickets, doing voiceover narratives for the congregating geckos and scouting the grasshopper we were sure was “frontin’”—or, hanging out on the front door, waiting for his chance to hop into our kitchen. Then Jen lit a candle and started waving it around the periphery of the cabin wall outside.

“Now it is clean!” she decreed with all inebriated seriousness.

“Oh, I already blessed the bathroom with incense,” said another girl.

“Yeah, we know about that,” said someone else. Everybody groaned.

“Well, it had been three days!” said the bathroom-blesser.

“That’s not right,” someone said. “You’ve gotta eliminate that shit.”

“Illuminate?”

The next morning, Jen made fake coffee, we discussed making a trip to Starbucks, and resumed our feasting.

“Nothing like the smell of breakfast to entice the boys! Hey, sound distressed—that’ll attract ‘em!”

“Oh, help me! I’m lonely and desperate and cooking bacon… naked! Hey girls, stop kissing me and throwing those pillows!”

“There ain’t nothing good about what’s going on in this room.”

Then somebody told a joke.

“What did one butt cheek say to the other? –Stick together and we can stop this shit!”

Typical girl stuff.

Samantha Campos would like to switch the answer to last week’s staff box question (“Best piece of music ever recorded”) to Tricky’s 1995 album, Maxinquaye. MTW
