LETTERSTOTHEEDITOR ALL ABOUT PROPERTY RE: Maui Time’s article “Road No Longer Traveled” (May 10, 2007).

Hamoa Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. It is unfortunate that the Hotel Hana Maui has taken upon itself to claim the beach and restrict access.

I remember back in the late ‘70s when there was sand all the way up to the back of the cliffs behind the restroom facilities. It was grassed over in the early ‘80s by Rosewood and it brings some questions to mind: Where is the vegetation line at Hamoa Beach? In times of very big surf, waves have come up as high as the back of the Hotel Hana Maui restroom facilities. Does this mean that the Hotel Hana Maui has claimed public property over the years by adding vegetation that was not there before? What is public property and what is private property?

Handicap accessibility is a must.

The path needs to be ADA compliant.

I remember getting hurt in high school in 1987 and being on crutches for a month. Part of my therapy was to swim each day at Hamoa. Traversing those steep stairs on a pair of crutches after extensive knee surgery was extremely difficult.

The County needs to step in and take control of access to Hamoa. If the Hotel Hana Maui has indeed taken over public lands, their facilities need to be torn down and replaced with public facilities that all can use and enjoy.

LIKES HAVING ENEMIES Hi, my name is Dean and I’m prolife. I’m pro-life and Planned Parenthood is pro-choice. Let’s call Planned Parenthood what they really are and that is the enemy. Enemy to all pro-lifers. Planned Parenthood is the largest abortion provider in the world.

We need people to stand up for pro-life and not Planned Parenthood. Please stop supporting Planned Parenthood.

-Dean Clark, Canada The Editor responds: Considering your repeated use of the word “enemy” in regards to Planned Parenthood—an advertiser in this publication, sure—I’m going to guess that you don’t know that they provide a lot more than abortions. But they do. Check out Mira Allen’s “New Doc on the Block”—it’s a very good overview of the clinic in Maui Time’s Mar. 29, 2007 issue.

YOU’RE WELCOME Aloha Braddah Corey [Nielsen]. I just wanted to let you know from the bottom of my heart, “Thank You.” I

simply thank you for your kind words and spiritual message to all of your readers (“Smiles Everyone, Smiles!” May 3, 2007). I again have been blessed to have this opportunity of sharing my spirit of aloha and my love for people and my love for music.

Music to me is a universal language that we all can relate to in so many different ways, that’s only if we allow it to enter into our hearts and our soul. It wouldn’t matter what language it is in, if the musician is playing and singing from his or her heart and soul; and the audience allows themselves to open their heart and their souls; they will be blessed to have the opportunity to feel exactly what the musician are spiritually sending to them.

That’s when I know I have been blessed with another opportunity of reaching in and caressing them spiritually with my love and music.

Well my friend, again thank you for blessing me and my family. May God continue to guide and clear your path so you may find your destiny. Much aloha.

-Ernest Puaa, via email

LOVE THOSE DINOSAURS The dinosaurs at Cabazon were still there when I went to Palm Springs in November (Holoholo Girl, May 3, 2007).

Two big ones and a couple of smaller ones. The place seems to be run by some sort of fundamentalist group and has an exhibit titled “Evolution, fact or fiction?”

We did not go in, but I got my picture taken with the Tyrannosaurus rex, which I used as my Christmas card. I HOPE they are still there and you just missed them.

Thanks for mentioning Shame on the Moon. We love that place!

Condolences to the late George Tsutomu Ito, some discussion of the mayor’s salary, a word or two on $37 million in public improvement bonds and then a word or two on some proposed development at Kaunakakai on Molokai that would change land currently zoned “open space to public/quasi-public.”

Wed., May 23, 9 a.m.

Short agenda this week. In fact, it’s really just a couple appeals of some new “Dangerous Dog Designations.” The first is from Stuart and Irene Wilson regarding their dog CODA, and the second deals with two dogs—PUNKIHANA and MOKIHANA—belonging to Monserrate Del Dago. Forgive me, but I find this funny: we shoot, bomb and otherwise blow up human beings accused of being terrorists, but let dogs go through legalistic appeal processes when we deem them threats to society.

Brah, are you ever dumb. After you head-butted me at the bar, pissed off because you thought I splashed you with my drink, you taunted me, saying “they” call you “The Pride of Maui.” I can certainly see why they don’t call you “The Brain of Maui.” Had you been just a bit less stupid, you would have noticed that it was, in fact, the guy standing next to me who dropped his drink and splashed you. Everyone standing around seemed to realize this except you. Tell me: are “they” proud of someone with a hair-trigger temper who attacks innocent people? And while I’m at it, just who are “they?” Your parents? Friends? Other wanna-be thugs? I’ve got news for you— someday you’re going to attack the wrong guy and they’re going to start calling you “The Pride of the Prison Yard.”

Real men—I’m talking civilized, educated, respectful adults—don’t act like you. But I’m sure you’re not concerned. And you know what? I’m not, either. See, while you’re wasting away in jail, I’ll be relaxing on the beach with good friends. That’s the true pride of Maui, brah.

Better lock your Mustang’s doors.

Just when Maui’s been unceremoniously bumped from Conde Nast’s “Best Island” podium, a new distinction has been bestowed upon our home. New state crime statistics show we’re living on the island where you’re most likely to get your car stolen.

Maui’s auto theft rate is four times higher than that on Kauai. In fact, it’s two and a half times greater than Los Angeles.

The State Attorney General’s office just released the state crime data for 2005. I know it’s 2007, but the AG’s office says computer system changes in the counties put them behind schedule (until very recently, Kauai was still using a paper and pencil record system).

Anyway, while the raw numbers of stolen cars in Honolulu and in Los Angeles easily trumped Maui, the actual rate of theft was considerably higher here. Maui’s rate is 833 per 100,000 residents. The Big Island runs at about half that. Badass LA is a mere 331 per 100,000 residents.

By contrast, Maui’s violent crime rate is low. Even most property crimes are either down or hovering.

But the rate of motor vehicle theft— “Unauthorized Control of a Propelled

Vehicle” (UCPV), to use the AG’s lingo—is rising fast.

The Hawai`i Attorney General’s Uniform Crime Report (UCR) shows that Maui’s motor vehicle theft rate took a 57 percent leap in the last record year while the state rate went down eight percent at the same time.

Maui’s [auto theft] rate is 833 per 100,000 residents. The Big Island runs at about half that.

Badass LA is a mere 331 per 100,000 residents.

There’s more than one theory explaining why UCPV is suddenly through the roof on Maui.

A conviction for a UCPV—a Class C felony—will bring five years in prison and $5,000 fine. If you’re a first time offender you’re looking at probation. Repeat offenders get into some mandatory prison time. And there isn’t any push for stricter penalties at the moment, according to see THEFT, page 13

MAUICOUNTY

BY CLINT ZAVODNY CLINT@MAUITIME.COM

Among Friends Getting to know Maui Classic Cruisers My first few weeks on Maui were tough. My beautifully restored 1966 Mustang was stuck on a Matson boat somewhere in the Honolulu Harbor, and I was stuck driving around in my girlfriend’s pale yellow new Beetle. It was embarrassing, at best.

When I finally got the call that my baby made it to the Kahului port, suddenly life was good again. I drove around with my head held high and people were always smiling and waving.

People kept stopping me, asking about my car. I beamed like a proud father.

Pretty soon I assumed that I must have the best looking car on Maui.

“Man, what a beautiful car you have there,” one guy told me.

I said thanks and talked with him for several minutes.

“So have you taken her down to Peggy Sue’s yet?” he asked.

“No,” I said. “What’s that?”

“This diner down in Kihei. On the first Saturday of every month, a bunch of people bring their cars down there.

Anyone with a car as nice as that is supposed to go.”

Though not an official organization, Maui Classic Cruisers has been meeting regularly since the 1980’s. There are no membership fees or dues of any kind, and anyone is welcome, and encouraged, to attend.

They meet at the Azeka II Plaza in front of Peggy Sue’s on the first Saturday of each month at 6 p.m.

They’re usually there until nine. The group also meets at the McDonald’s on Dairy Road in Kahului on the second Saturday of every month, and in front of Round Table Pizza in Kihei on the last Saturday of selected months (January, April, July and October).

So when the first Saturday of April rolled around, I made Chanda put on her “My Boyfriend Drives a Mustang” t-shirt and we headed to Kihei. But as soon as we pulled into the Azeka Mauka Plaza parking lot my heart sank, I quickly realized that I did NOT have the best looking car on Maui.

Spread out in front of us were some of the nicest classic Chevelles, ‘Vettes,

Now that’s a sweet ride “HEY BRAH, KAMA’AINA WEDNESDAYS!!!”

Clint’s classic Mustangs, Camaros, Chargers, GTOs, Caddies and roadsters I had ever seen.

“Oh baby, I can’t take my car in there,” I told Chanda. “Look at all those nice cars.”

She just smiled. “Don’t be silly,” she said. “I think your car is just as beautiful as any of these.”

Of course she’d say that. She had to. But she got out and lifted the yellow tape for me, so I reluctantly drove through and parked.

A few people instantly circled the car, admiring it. I forced the best smile I could and thanked them for their compliments.

Everybody there seemed to know each other, and I didn’t know anybody. I was an outsider, the new kid. We walked around anonymously for a while, circling the parking lot, looking at the wide range of vintage vehicles. About 20 minutes later we came back to my Mustang. A few people stood near it, talking. They looked up at us.

“Hey, I need to get my wife a shirt like that!” one guy said. “Where’d you get that?”

I had almost forgotten Chanda’s shirt.

But before I could answer, someone else asked if the Mustang was mine. I nodded.

“Beautiful car,” a woman said. She pointed at my California tags. “Are you gonna get personalized plates here?” she asked.

“Um, I dunno,” I said, caught off guard by all the sudden questions. “I, uh, still have to fix some stuff to pass that goddamn

safety inspection. The right front turn signal is out, and I think the switch is bad, but I don’t have any tools here yet and I’m not sure how to get the steering wheel off…”

“Oh I have a steering wheel puller,” another guy said. “I have plenty of tools you can use. Give me a call this week, I’ll help you put it on.”

He handed me a piece of paper with his number on it. In fact, several people handed me their numbers. And just like that, I felt like I was suddenly part of the group.

The Mustang clique had found me, made me feel welcome. I stood there talking to these people for hours, like I had known them for years. It was a lot like being back in high school—that feeling of hanging around in a parking lot on a warm summer evening.

Everyone shared the same basic common interest with their respect for classic cars, and they all seemed to treat this Saturday night like it was the greatest night of the month. And why not? They were among friends.

The Development of Maui

Last Dance

Looking over our island’s past, present and future Maui has become such a desirable place to visit and live, that it is experiencing serious growing pains. Current trends of skyrocketing median house prices and shortage of affordable housing, coupled with uncertain future scenarios for food, fuel and economic selfsufficiency, portend the need for critical changes in public policies.

Opportunities exist for significant positive changes in Maui’s development future, but are unlikely to happen without an aggressive campaign of advocacy and education to sway the existing political climate. Short of that, the top-heavy tourism-based economy is bound to reach a point of diminishing returns, with trickledown effects upon other economic sectors, as well as the overall quality of life.

Maui’s resident population is approximately 140,000, though the daily visitor count of 40,000 or so increases the de facto count to 180,000. The population of Kihei is listed at 16,749, while the tally for Wailea/Makena is 5,671.

Maui has roughly 56,000 housing units, of which 25,000 (44 percent) are owner-occupied. Approximately 1,000 new single family units have been permitted each of the past three years, with an average of 200 multi-family units approved yearly. There are 2,350 planned time-share and hotel units on the books, though some are remodels of existing resort properties at Kapalua, Ka`anapali and Wailea.

It’s said that the real estate market is always cyclical. The mid-1980’s witnessed a boom in Maui real estate sales, which ebbed in the mid-1990’s, corresponding to Japanese investment slowing with the weakening of the yen on the world market.

Certainly, the Maui real estate market has boomed in the past decade, particularly since 2001. Though the overall market may have cooled or leveled off in the past year, median home prices have reached unprecedented heights. The widening gap between the luxury home and condo markets and the shortfall of affordable homes and rentals precipitated landmark legislation in late 2006.

The Residential Workforce Housing Policy ordinance, adopted by the County Council over the Mayor’s disapproval, set a formula of 40 percent to 50 percent affordable homes which must be provided along with any other newly approved resort or

residential development proposal. (The bill neglected to assign a formula for development of affordable housing for commercial development, an omission which at least one analyst said could open the requirement to legal challenges.)

It remains to be seen to what degree the Workforce Housing Policy will affect the outlook of development in the next few years. It’s likely that political tendencies of the new mayoral administration, as well as a County Council with three new members, may be revealed in the coming months.

Emerging world trends for renewable energy, resource conservation and overall sustainability will help guide future growth on Maui, particularly with respect to its geographic isolation from outside imports of food, fuel and tourist dollars.

Much of the land developed today for residential or resort purposes was designated for those uses two decades ago or longer. In South Maui, Makena and Wailea Resorts were “master-planned” in the 1970’s.

Wailea Resort now encompasses over 1,500 acres along 1.5 miles of Maui’s southern coastline. It includes three golf courses, six hotels with 2,500 rooms, 450 single-family home sites, 1,300 condominium apartments and the 156,000 square-foot Shops at Wailea retail center.

In 1989, Alexander & Baldwin sold its remaining interest in Wailea (consisting of 927 acres, including two golf courses) to Shinwa. A&B re-acquired Wailea properties in 2003 from Shinwa Golf Group at a price of $135 million. The assets include three golf courses and 270 acres of fully zoned, undeveloped land.

Earlier this year, Seibu Group of Japan sold Makena Resort, including the Maui Prince Hotel, for $575 million to a hui of veteran local developers. The local members are Everett Dowling of Dowling Co. and Trinity Investments, led by Honolulu lawyer Jon Miho and Charles “Chuck”

LC Watch

Sweeney, who headed partnerships that built the Embassy Suites at Ka`anapali and the Kea Lani Resort in Wailea.

Dowling and Trinity are teaming with giant Morgan Stanley Real Estate, which has steered more than $100 billion in real estate investments since 1991. Dowling has said that the first order of business once the deal is closed will be to pursue the existing rezoning application for Makena Resort—a request to revise the resort master plan that has been stalled in the County Council Planning Committee.

Dowling also is developing the 14-acre Keaka LLC condominium project adjacent to Maluaka Beach and the Maui Prince (72 luxury condos, starting at $4 million), and owns land at Palauea, which is bordered by Makena Resort. He promised that future development would be “green,” a theme of his Maui projects, under the slogan “Building in Balance.”

But promises of green development alone may not be sufficient to convince County Council members to rezone as much as 150 acres of Makena resort. Over the past five years, community and environmental groups have challenged Makena rezoning requests, based on lack of available water, insufficient infrastructure, potential harm to coral reefs from runoff and fertilizers, and presence of cultural sites throughout the area.

Many of the same concerns are being expressed with the rezoning application for Wailea 670/Honua`ula, which has been on the planning books since 1980.

The investment group WCPT/GW Land Associates LLC owns the land, having bought the property for $17.2 million in 2000 from Palauea Bay Partners.

As we reported two weeks ago, the Liquor Commission followed up its brutal dismissal of a group of citizens seeking to change the county’s rules prohibiting dancing in a club or restaurant except on a specially marked dance floor by asking Liquor Control Director Franklyn Silva to survey actual licensees.

At the May 9 commission hearing, Silva gave the panel the results.

Immediately following the Liquor Commission’s April 11 hearing, Silva told the panel, he sent out a three-question survey to all the county’s 230 liquor licensees. Of those, 81 filled it out and sent it back by Silva’s May 1 deadline.

That’s a 35 percent response rate, which isn’t bad for a survey. Silva later speculated that the other 65 percent of licensees didn’t respond because they saw no problems with the current rules governing dancing. (Since speculation is cheap, let me offer a bit of my own: they didn’t respond because they didn’t want to put their name and license number on a piece of paper proclaiming their dissatisfaction with the current liquor rules).

In any case, Silva told the commissioners that in answer to the survey’s first question—“Have you encountered any problems with this rule?”—17 licensees said yes while 64 said no.

The second question asked the licensees if they’d like to see the rules amended: 22 said yes but 53 said no.

And for the last question—“Has this rule assisted you in maintaining control of your premises for the health, safety and welfare of your patrons and employees?”—36 said yes while 25 said no.

see DEVELOPMENT, page 13

There was also a comment portion of the survey. They mirrored the above results.

“We need a better definition of dancing,” one licensee wrote.

“There are far more pressing issues and dancing is not at the top,” said another.

“I’d leave it [the dancing rule] alone,” Silva told the commission. “I think the rule is good. I don’t see the rule as being a problem.”

“But they have until May first to answer back?” Liquor Commission Chairwoman Frances Meshulam asked.

“May first has passed,” Silva said.

spect for order, disrespect for women [and] for anyone in authority.” She opposed “overzealous” attempts at bringing about equality like forcing girls and boys in school to play the exact same sports. She observed that, “until men are the ones having babies, they won’t understand” why abortion should be a woman’s choice. “Our society is so permissive it’s ridiculous,” she said near the end. “You cannot be a 250-pound, sixfooter and wear clothes like Britney Spears. This does not fit.” Finally, Tavares observed that chivalry wasn’t dead—and wasn’t just for guys. “Women can open the door for men,” she said, to not nearly enough applause.

WEDNESDAY, May 9 The Maui News’ Liz Janes-Brown, Men are Easy author Lynn Rasmussen and the honorable Mayor Charmaine Tavares got together at Seabury Hall tonight for another monthly Philosophy Club gathering, this one on feminism. All three panelists agreed with each other for the most part, though I’ve got to say Tavares surprised me with some of the evening’s most interesting observations—most notably that our market economy and its attendant high cost of living has done much to help feminism by forcing women into the workplace so couples and families can afford to buy nice, expensive stuff. “If I’m going to get married, I’m going to find someone who’s truly a partner,” Tavares said. “Maybe that’s why I’m not married.” Later she advocated dumping grade levels in schools and criticized rap lyrics for having “disre-

Eleven months before a minority of the American electorate boosted him into the White House, Republican presidential candidate George W. Bush bravely told a Florence, South Carolina audience, “Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning?” That Bush was not engaging in subtle ironic humor and was, in fact, giving the entire nation—and world— a sneak peek at his future approach to governance, education policy and the English language should have been obvious to us all. It most certainly should inoculate us from any shock we might otherwise receive after reading something like today’s Honolulu Star-Bulletin story “No Child law is leaving isles behind, study finds.” Yes, kids, the educational apocalypse has indeed come to pass. According to the story, the Center on Education has determined that 65 percent of Hawai`i’s schools are failing to meet No Child Left Behind’s “Adequate Yearly Progress” benchmarks. Sixty-five percent. You know, some nations consider that a majority. Anyway, the reason for this travesty is, according to state Department of Education, inadequate funding from the fed to meet the goals they set up in the first place. That this is a phenomenally stupid reason—the federal government spends $9 billion every single month on a war we can’t win in Iraq—should only reinforce the view that we all should have

Mayor Tavares: respect authority been paying a lot more attention to Bush seven years ago.

FRIDAY, May 11 Good news, everyone: Hawai`i’s new Smoke-Free Workplaces Law doesn’t seem to be driving Japanese tourists away. “A healthy environment can only be good for tourism—you hear that wherever you are,” Hawai`i Tourism Liaison Marsha Wienert says in today’s Honolulu Star-Bulletin. See, when you live in a place completely controlled by the tourism industry, you’re going to see stories like this. Forget about trying to gauge the health effects such a law would bring to the whole county—the power brokers really want to know if the big tourist groups still come here. You know, I’m really surprised the tourist lobby didn’t veto Kent Smith’s Kaheawa Wind Farm because it’s such an eyesore on the Pali.

SATURDAY, May 12 Jacob and Emily—those are the two most popular baby names in the U.S., according to Social Security Administration stats cited in an Associated Press story today. And I think I speak for everyone—well, everyone not named Jacob—when I say that this is messed up. Jacob? Growing up, I knew of two Jacobs: Jacob Marley of Christmas Carol, who you really didn’t want to be named after, and that Jake guy in the 1980’s TV show Jake and the Fatman, starring William Conrad and Joe Penny.

This just in! Hawai`i Democrats have moved up their caucus! To Feb. 19, 2008!

According to today’s Honolulu StarBulletin, the reason is to “give the state a higher profile in the presidential campaign.” Now in all seriousness, this is probably a good thing. Holding the caucus in March, like previous election years, is much too late in the presidential election cycle to give Hawai`i voters a chance to affect the race for party’s nomination. And moving the date up to mid-February would be tremendous news were it not for one small detail: all the other states are moving their primary elections up even further! Feb. 5, for instance—two full weeks before Hawai`i’s caucus date—will see primary elections in California, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Utah and Delaware.

In addition, Texas, Illinois are also considering moving their primaries to that date. In fact, so many big states will hold primaries on Feb. 5 that CNN reported on Mar. 15 that the date constitutes a “quasinational primary that could largely settle nomination battles before the first piece of Valentine’s candy is ever eaten.”

MONDAY, May 14 Well, looks like Kamehameha Schools’ Hawaiians-only admissions policy is safe from the constitutional clutches of the U.S. Supreme Court. After all that arguing, debating and pontificating about how the court would side on the case, the young plaintiff named “John Doe”—supposedly prevented from attending the school—has gone and settled for undisclosed terms. Kam Schools supporters are happy (any day that sees a Supreme Court challenge fall away without you having to do anything is a good one) and are even boasting they’ll pass the far more controversial Akaka Bill. And this is ironic, because it had been my understanding that the federal government needed to pass the Akaka Bill in the first place to make it likelier that court cases like Kam Schools would go the Hawaiians’ way.

TUESDAY, May 15 Isn’t it great that political arguments can be so flexible?

HOME PRICES FALL Some bad news for land developers like A&B, Dowling and Maui Land & Pine this week. Looks like the local housing market is still flattening out. According to new stats from the Realtors Association of Maui— which the online Pacific Business News covered on May 9—the median price of a single family home on Maui dropped to a mere $690,000.

That’s just 99 percent of the price in April 2006—now a properly educated “economist” might differ, but it looks to me like we’re all headed to shanty towns at this rate. For condos, the news is even worse: the median price is now $465,000, while it was $539,500 last April.

Though the news isn’t all bad.

Homebuilders like Goodfellow Brothers are making out like bandits: condo sales have flattened out, but an amazing 102 single-family homes sold in April, which is way more than the 72 that sold during April 2006.

NOT SO THRILLING NEWS If you notice, ML&P dropped even further on the chart this week than other developers. The reason can be found in the May 9 Maui News story “Kapalua land swap nets gains for Maui Land & Pine.” No, it’s not because the company is showing higher first quarter profits because of its decision to swap land under the Ritz-Carlton hotel for a stake in the hotel. And no, it’s not even because of the company’s announcement that it’s getting out of the canned pineapple business. No, Maui Land & Pine falls two notches this week on news that they’re going to ad a zip line “thrill ride” to a new “mountain activities center” in Kapalua. A zip line?! In Kapalua!? I mean, a zip line is fine and all, but who’s going to use it? People–most of whom are richer than God–go to Kapalua to golf, not zip line. MTW

SAY WHAT? The Scandia Family Fun Center, which operates a super thrill ride (168 feet high, spinning at 60 miles an hour, pulling 3.5 g’s) called the Screamer, in Sacramento, Calif., decided in March that because of neighborhood residents’ noise complaints, riders would be prohibited from screaming (and subject to ejection from the park).

USA! USA! The latest National Assessment of Educational Progress, released in February, revealed that 12th graders’ reading ability is at an all-time low, yet their grades for English class are at an alltime high (averaging 2.82 on a 4.0 scale, up from 2.52 15 years ago). Also, Washington state legislators, faced with 10th graders’ declining achievement test scores in math and science, are poised to just eliminate the tests altogether—while retaining those for reading and writing, which do not show declines—according to a March Seattle Times report. Some math and science would still be tested, but only right after math and science classes, when memories are fresher and, presumably, scores would be higher.

Jerusalem’s Church of the Holy Sepulchre most recently made News of the Weird in 2004 because of continued petty territorial fighting among the six Christian denominations that share management of the church, which is home to some of Christianity’s holiest sites, including that of Christ’s resurrection. As Easter approached this year, three of the groups that control one 10-stall restroom could not agree how to divide responsibility for repairing it, leading to a pervasive stench in the building. Furthermore, the path of the outflow sewage pipe (which needed enlarging) passes under property of a fourth denomination, which has resisted helping unless it is granted control of one of the 10 stalls.

Britain’s General Dental Council found dentist Alan Hutchinson guilty in April of several hygiene violations, including frequent hand-washing lapses, failure to sterilize instruments that he had taken off treatment trays to clean his own ears and fingernails with, and, more than once, urinating in his surgery sink. The council said it needed another hearing to decide whether Hutchinson’s habits impaired his treatment of patients.

FUN IN THE OC Following a three-year investigation by federal and local authorities in Orange County, Calif., the owners of at least 10 massage parlors were arrested in March and accused of running prostitution establishments.

Among the investigators’ findings was that, to reduce the cost of supplying condoms, the salons urged customers

According to the manager of BJ’s Pawn Shop in Gretna, La., a customer came in with his diaper-clad boy of about two in April and handed the kid an AK-47 from the store’s shelf, instructed him how to hold it in order to “mow [people] down, kill everybody,” and told him that “Daddy’s going to buy you this chopper.” The manager, incredulous, said he took the gun back and shooed the pair out. MTW

MAUICOUNTY THEFT: continued from page 7 Maui County Prosecuting Attorney Benjamin Acob.

“In Maui there’re a lot of cars to steal,” Acob said. “From the pieces that we’ve seen, a lot of these cases are associated with drug users. If they sell [the car], it would be one way to support their habit. This is a crime of opportunity. The cars are easy to steal. For example, a lot of them are stolen from rental car lots.

They know people from the inside.

In the past, they could go into a lot, find the keys inside the car, and they’d just drive off.”

Wendy Hudson, Deputy Public Defender with the State, noticed this trend a year ago. She also points the finger at drug users and says that dealers are telling users that they’ll get them their next fix for, say, a silver BMW M4. Then, the tweaker hunt is on Too Fast, Too Furious-style until the dealer gets his ride.

Don Simpson, Lieutenant with the Criminal Investigations Department of Maui Police, said police know UCPV’s are way up. He also confirmed that MPD is implementing programs to deal with the rash of thefts. He declined to elaborate.

But Simpson did say that it was the department’s view that most UCPV’s are people who are joyriding and then crashing or dumping the cars—not necessarily drug related. Theft of the contents of a vehicle—Unauthorized Entry in to a Motor Vehicle (UEMV)— is more the domain of the drug fiends.

Other communities are trying creative solutions to their auto theft problems. For instance, police in

ROBREPORT Arlington, Virginia are placing “bait cars” out on the streets. When someone breaks in, a hidden internal camera begins recording while a GPS transponder in the car alerts police.

Dispatch then routes the closest patrol cars to the scene and can even remotely shut down the car’s motor and lock the doors. Conviction rates for stolen “bait cars” run at 100 percent.

Lt. Simpson was familiar with these programs but asserted that these types of programs would be very short-lived on an island as small as Maui. Here, word would travel so fast that the “bait” would be useless after only a few catches.

A separate source inside MPD has a different take. When asked if dealers are “ordering” up cars, he said, “The drug dealers—we know where they live,” the police official said. “They make a lot of money. They don’t have to steal them. They just buy them. We have impounded cars with 20K worth of extras on them.”

According to the official, “people not targeting houses now” because “vehicles are easier.” As far as what Maui should do, the police official said their response comes down to staffing—and what actions the rest of us take.

“There’s a lot of people out there with answers and solutions,” the official said.

“We’re short-handed by 67 people. Does it make sense? We ask for more personnel.

People say they can’t afford. They say, ‘I pay my taxes.’ Well, I pay my taxes, too.

This problem is the whole community’s problem. The whole thing is a community problem. If there’s something happening, give us a call. The public has to make a call. If someone’s the type of person who’s quiet about this, they’re part of the problem.” MTW

Maui TIME “Once ashore, the men scrambled up the cliffs barefoot, heedless of kiawe thorns. After the sun rose, they scattered for cover when a Marine patrol helicopter appeared in the azure sky. Danger past, they made a small base camp and hid food and water in secret caches. Late in the afternoon they emerged from cover, easily caught at least seven kinds of fish in traditional Hawaiian sling nets and cooked them on steaming stones. For a few hours, the old way of Hawaiian life had been re-established on Kahoolawe.”

-From “Return of the Natives to Kahoolawe,” Time Magazine, Aug. 8, 1977

DEVELOPMENT: continued from page 9 partners: Lehman Brothers; the Cargill Group; Trimark Pacific Homes; managing partner Woodridge Capital; and Golden Wailea, the Japanese firm that previously owned the land and still holds a small percentage of the company.

It was generally understood that Wailea 670/Honua`ula would have its chance with the County Council Land Use Committee after it dealt with the massive rezoning request for Makena resort lands. While Wailea 670 was adopted as a Project District in the Kihei-Makena Community Plan years ago, it must seek Council approval for rezoning and for Project District Phase I status. This round of the review process began in early 2006, and faces further scrutiny and public hearings in summer, 2007.

Many local residents have expressed concerns that the plans for Wailea 670’s 1,400 new units and a private golf course does not correspond with the true needs of the South Maui community. Broad efforts are underway to educate the community to the potential impacts of these and other proposed developments in South Maui, totaling 13,200 potential new units, according to data from the Maui County Department of Planning, Long Range Division.

County Council members may possibly delay approval of Wailea 670 based upon concerns over its private water system, placement of affordable housing (inside or outside the project), serious deficiencies in the capacity of the South Maui roadway system, unique native plant habitat and cultural sites and cumulative impacts of all planned and proposed new units.

Elsewhere on Maui, several large tracts of land are being conceived for future residential and mixed use purposes. Island-wide, the projections for new units total more than 50,000 units.

The dissolution of plantation operations in West Maui (Pioneer Mill) and Central Maui (Wailuku Sugar) brought about the sale of thousands of acres, and proposals for development of former agricultural lands.

New large communities are proposed at Olowalu, Waikapu, Ma`alaea and Hali`imaile. There is an emerging trend to bring in nationally renowned planners and “New Urbanists” such as Andreas Duany and William McDonough to design “smart growth” communities in these areas.

Since the 1998 adoption of the Agricultural Zoning Ordinance, there are limitations to the number of

parcels that can be subdivided from large ag lots. Previously, two-acre subdivisions in Kula, Haiku, Launiupoko and elsewhere gave rise to the term “gentlemen’s estates” to describe ag zoned properties that had no bona fide agriculture. Maui Tomorrow and other community groups lobbied for the Ag Zoning Ordinance, fearing the continued loss of farmlands and abuse of existing zoning without fair-share payment for development impacts.

The Maui County Planning Department requires submittal of a farm plan before permits may be issued for a second farm dwelling on agriculturally zoned property. But this requirement has not necessarily served as an inducement for diversified farming.

Maui will continue to attract visitors and appeal to those who wish to become parttime or full-time residents. Yet there are indications that the island is changing from rampant development to more carefully planned, sustainable growth.

Emerging world trends for renewable energy, resource conservation, and overall sustainability will help guide future growth on Maui, particularly with respect to its geographic isolation from outside imports of food, fuel and tourist dollars.

The changing demographic of new residents to Maui may be beneficial in helping to sway the old ways of doing business.

Voter tallies indicate that the political process has been particularly weak on Maui, with less than 50 percent of registered voters participating in recent elections.

The widespread influence of plantation politics will not wither anytime soon, but is likely to face a slow, steady decline.

Aggressive citizen advocacy efforts may be instrumental in guiding positive changes to Maui’s burgeoning future as a sustainable island community.

With this time of transition from a tourism-based economy to a self-sufficient model, there exists a rare opportunity to implement a viable future. There must be dedicated efforts to implement desired changes, or else the prevailing status quo will lead us down an eventual road to ruin.

It’s unlikely the large number of permitted, designated and proposed housing units currently on the books will be built in the near term, if ever. Rather, smaller development proposals incorporating smart growth elements and affordable housing are more likely to win approvals from elected and appointed decision makers.

Citizen groups like Maui Tomorrow and the Sierra Club-Maui Group may be instrumental in organizing the community. In this way, we can create a future in which Maui is a model for clean, sustainable living and a place where children could grow to lead successful and productive lives amongst family on the islands.

MAUI TIME WEEKLY

Deponte and Foster a story about a reporter I knew who had tried to get a movie made. He had taken meetings with studio execs and went through innumerable script revisions until the whole project collapsed. “It’s all bullshit, except the money,” he had told me, and I repeated the quote to Deponte and Foster. They both smiled.

“In this business, you really have to filter out what is real from what is not,” Foster said. Deponte nodded.

“We’ve learned some hard Hollywood lessons,” she said. “We’ve worked with studio producers, day in and day out, and they’re not what we want.”

Considering what Deponte and Foster want to do–an intelligent, character-driven drama about a troubled pro-surfer–this isn’t surprising. Studios want simplistic PG-13 movies—“under-25 males” is Hollywood’s drool-over demographic—but the current script for Keys is potentially R-rated. Of course, their script also looks like it’ll clock in at a little over 100 minutes, and that’s just fine by theater owners.

See, theaters make a lot of money showing movies, but they make even more selling popcorn and soda (According to Hollywood chronicler Edward Jay Epstein, an astounding 90 cents from every dollar’s worth of popcorn sold goes into the theater owner’s pocket). To maximize concession stand trips, the theaters want films that don’t keep moviegoers on the edge of their seat, but get people out of their seats from time to time.

In 2005, Deponte and Foster put together a “reel”—a trailer-like short version of Keys to the Kingdom to show to potential Hawai`i investors. It was cast with unknowns, with one exception— Tahitian pro-surfer Malik Joyeux.

Things were looking great. Deponte and Foster were happy with their script and meeting with potential financiers and distributors. Then on Dec. 2, 2005, 25-year-old Joyeux died preparing for the Pipe Masters on the North Shore of Oahu.

It was a tragedy that shocked the pro-surfing world—Joyeux was a well-known, experienced bigwave rider—and it nearly derailed Keys. As it happened, Deponte and Foster were in the middle of negotiations for a possible distribution deal at the time.

“Two weeks [after Joyeux’ death] the deal went to another project, because they felt we were no long ready,” Deponte said. “It was just one of those things.

We were all devastated by Malik’s death as he was an inspiration to the story and like family. The blow of losing the financing opportunity was a big hurdle to leap.”

But they went back to work, navigating that Byzantine labyrinth of publicity campaigns, residual payouts, “back end” licensing, overseas distribution rights, completion bonds, film festivals and financiers to get their film from script to theater.

Amazingly enough, there are a few advantages to doing an indie film. For instance, it’s likely Deponte and Foster will secure some big name actors for their film at “scale” pay rates, which are around $788 a day.

Reasons for this vary from actors falling in love with the characters, which tend to be meatier and more intelligent than your typical big-budget studio flick to stars just needing the work.

This is good because it helps offset the biggest disadvantage facing indie-filmmakers like Deponte and Foster: the need to finish their movie before securing distribution. That means they need big name talent to help sell the picture to potential distributors.

Once that happens and they actually achieve the miracle of making their movie, they’ll have to shop it around themselves to film festivals in hopes of winning awards that generate buzz which will, ultimately, get their movie into theaters. How many theaters— Spider-Man 3 opened on thousands, Sideways opened on 30—has yet to be seen.

“Maui Film Festival has looked at 1,250 submissions this year,” Barry Rivers told me, “and there’s an inordinate amount of work being submitted that is astonishingly bad.”

Surfing and Celluloid, Through the Years GIDGET (1959) Sandra Dee, Cliff Robertson and James Darren star in this ridiculous picture about a star surfer who falls for a lowly surfer chick. It’s hard to tell what’s more fake—the plot, the characters or the surfing itself.

BIG WEDNESDAY (1978) Called the best surfing film ever made by more than one person, this flick—written and directed

by John Milius—features a group of Malibu studs (Gary Busey, William Katt, Jan-Michael Vincent) who spend the 1960’s surfing, partying and trying to stay out of the Vietnam War. APOCALPYSE NOW (1979) “Charlie don’t surf!” Best surfing/helicopter gunship assault sequence ever.

SURF NAZIS MUST DIE (1987) Troma classic about a large African-American woman who avenges her son’s death by taking down a gang of Neo-Nazi surfers.

POINT BREAK (1991) Two FBI agents (Keanu Reeves, Gary Busey) infiltrate a gang of surfing, Nixon mask-wearing bank robbers led by Patrick Swayze. Lori Petty plays the obligatory hard-ass surfer chick? Sweet!

BLUE JUICE (1995) This indie film chronicles the life of a surf legend in the British Isles. He’s getting older, his chums are selling drugs—wait, surfing in the British Isles? But it also stars Catherine ZetaJones, so it’s probably worth at least a rental.

IN GOD’S HANDS (1998) Real-life surfing great Shane Dorian equates saying his lines very, very slowly with dramatic tension in this Zalman King (that Red Shoe Diaries guy) flick about three guys who travel the world looking for the perfect wave.

LILO & STITCH (2002) Animated feature about a little Hawaiian girl who adopts a cuddly space monster. Could happen.

BLUE CRUSH (2002) Ostensibly based on Susan Orlean’s great 1998 Outside Magazine story “Life’s Swell” about teenage Maui surfer girls Theresa McGregor and Lilia Boerner, the film instead features a group of Oahu North Shore hotties (Kate Bosworth, Sanoe Lake, Michelle Rodriguez) who work resort housekeeping when they’re not angling to compete in big wave contests. Somehow, it was less believable than Lilo & Stitch.

But even an indie pushed by big names through the film festival circuit may have trouble. Two years ago I saw The Wendell Baker Story—which starred Luke and Owen Wilson, who also wrote, directed and produced it—at the Maui Film Festival. It’s finally appearing in theaters this week.

But now Deponte and Foster say they’re seeing the end of development. They say their script has been polished to the point that the dialogue just crackles off the page. They’re getting close to making casting decisions, then actual filming decisions. Of course, even if everything goes smoothly from here out, they still may not make any money.

To find out how movies make money, you first have to ignore the one number the media throws at you every weekend—the box office gross. All that tells you is how much the movie theaters themselves took in. Half the box office take goes right back to theater owners—the rest goes to pay a movie’s marketing costs ($36 million on average for a big picture), star salaries, assorted guild fees and distribution.

Often the money runs out long before it comes time to pay the studio that made the movie in the first place. A film like Gone in 60 Seconds or King Kong can make hundreds of millions of dollars at the box office and cost their parent studios money.

Others like Sideways can bring in just a few paltry millions and generate substantial profit because of their low upfront marketing and distribution costs.

In any case, studios make most of their money these days off the “back end”—DVD sales and rentals, pay TV, network broadcasts and video game tie-ins. In fact, Edward Jay Epstein has written that television licensing alone is Hollywood’s “biggest profit center.”

But we’re a long way off from that. Deponte and Foster want to start filming Keys to the Kingdom at the end of the year, to take advantage of optimal surfing conditions. Their film has a script—the latest draft is dated May 7, 2007—and financing is just about complete. According to Deponte, producer Gill Holland is preparing to start sending the script out to actors. In the mean time, Deponte continues to fly to New York, where she tries to meets with potential investors.

Some of the meetings go smoothly—Deponte described one to me in which an investor said that since his attorney’s fees would be the same for a small investment as well as a significant one, that he might as make a significant investment. Other meetings have resulted in what Deponte calls “Nazi inquisitions” that led to no money changing hands.

“As long as I am creating, I am happy, even if it means creating a proposal,” Deponte told me.

“However, the business side is the most difficult area.

It’s like when we go into a meeting with potential investors—let’s say, for instance, venture capital types.

I often feel like an alien sitting at the table waving my arms about while talking about how I see the film on the screen—how I’ll shoot it, how great it’s going to be, etc. I’m lost in my vision and then I’ll look over at them and realize that they are totally amazed by my intense passion but what they really want to know is how much money they’re going to make and when will they get it. It’s funny sometimes.”

For the Love of Pumpkin Dining at Hotel Hana-Maui’s Ka`uiki

PHOTO: RICHARD WILSON

I don’t know about you people but I don’t get up to Hana nearly as often as I should. And I’ve got a pineapple-stand full of excuses: I don’t have the time, I have to work, it’s too far, my car won’t make it, my tent still stinks of whiskey from that one trip last summer… and so on.

But this time, I had no excuses left. In fact, in a glorious turn of events, I was commissioned through my freelance side-job to make the trek to Hana and check out Ka`uiki—the main dining room at Hotel Hana.

No stinky whiskey tents for me—yippee!

Admittedly, I had my doubts. Having never stayed at the luxury resort before, I wondered if their menu would fall victim to the mainstream Pacific Rim bland-

ness of most hotel cuisine. After all, they wouldn’t have to try too hard, as Hana’s dining options are severely limited anyway.

It’s good to be wrong with a mouthful of freshly baked, herb-buttered Molokai sweet bread with olives, a tropical fruit gazbacho amuse bouche and a glass of crisp, dry 2004 Trimbach reisling from Alsace, France.

As my server Laurie guided me through several courses with wine pairings, I noticed a couple things right away: first, that the wine list is extensive, spanning all regions of Old and New World, along with some interesting selections from decidedly non-traditional places like Lebanon, Hungary and South Africa; and second, that the unusual Kau`iki dinner menu seemed to meld the autumnal comfort foods of New England with the vibrant tropical flavors and Asian influences of Hawai`i.

Laurie also mentioned that all of the produce, meats and fish come from Hana foremost then the rest of the island—and neighboring islands—as necessary. And that Chef David Patterson, who adamantly supports sustainability and organics, changes the menu daily in order to utilize the freshest local ingredients available.

Kind of surprising for a luxury resort that doesn’t have to try so hard, I thought to myself, as I stuffed another golden spoonful of a sweet and creamy, almost mousse-like pumpkin bisque drizzled with sherry into my mouth.

Probably my favorite dish of the night was the highly creative, crispy pumpkin shoot tempura, which was served with a bit of whimsy on a square of crinkled brown paper and a ramekin of tangy orange aioli that was like a high-end Orange Julius. And I mean that in the best way; this dish was just plain fun to eat—and just right with a lively glass of 2004 Grgich Hills fume blanc from Napa.

And then there was the pheasant. I’m not really the biggest fowl fan but the roasted pheasant served atop beets, carrots and kale greens blew me away—beautifully presented on a large frosted glass plate so that the colors of the root veggies really popped, with perfectly cooked pheasant, tender and juicy in thick seasoned slices, and a cinnamon-creamy caramelized Maui onion glace.

I won’t even get into the miso-glazed mahi with Big Island mushroom risotto, or the gorgeously displayed Maui Gold Coffee pot de crème in all its Frappuccinolike glory served with chocolate volcano cookies.

But I am salivating even as I write this. MTW

Boogie Wonderland Sunday (May 20), 7 p.m. at A&B Amphitheater [FUNK/R&B] You’re a shining star, no matter who are/shining bright to see, what you could truly be!... Earth Wind & Fire is definitely part of the soundtrack to my life. I remember thinking a lot of my mom’s music was weird, but some of her grooves that I really got into—before my young sponge of a brain became corrupted with less classic tastes in the ‘80s—was funk and R&B. For really, what else could I rollerboogie to but “Shining Star,” “Let’s Groove” and “Boogie Wonderland” (I won’t even get into the heartache of its cursed cover in Happy Feet)? Even to this day, every time I hear “Got to Get You Into My Life” or “September” I smile, lip-synch and do the white-girl dance. Clearly, I am not alone in my appreciation, given the beloved ‘70’s soul band’s accolades: six Grammys, induction into the Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Fame in 2000, ASCAP’s Rhythm & Soul Heritage Award in 2002, BET’s Lifetime Achievement Award, and the selling of over 40 million albums in the U.S. in 34 years. This weekend at the Maui Arts & Cultural Center, expect to see Philip Bailey, Verdine White and Ralph Johnson, and me, singing along with much arhythmic glee to “Ba de ya… say do you remember/Ba de ya… dancing in September/Ba de ya… never was a cloudy daaaay…”

Friday-Saturday (May 18-19), 7:30 p.m. at McCoy Studio Theater, MACC

Saturday (May 19), 6 p.m. at King Kamehameha Country Club, Waikapu

[COMEDY] Hawai`i loves Frank De Lima. He’s our state’s most popular, award-winning comic, with a knack for the zany, outrageous and spontaneous. His mission? To go where no Portuguese-HawaiianIrish-Chinese-EnglishSpanish-Scottish man has gone before!— and, well, also to celebrate local color and life with his own multiculti perspective, offthe-wall characterizations and musical parodies. Tickets: $28 advance, $34 day of show, half-price for keiki. For info visit online at www.mauiarts.org or call 242-SHOW.

[PARTY/FUNDRAISER] The Hollywood Canteen of the early ‘40’s was a place where big stars, starlets and movie moguls volunteered their time to work as waiters, entertainers, greeters, cigarette girls, private dancers, etc. to put smiles on the shining faces of military servicemen and women. It would be common to see the likes of Bette Davis, Lana Turner, Carmen Miranda, Groucho Marx and Fred Astaire.

And you’re likely to see those same likenesses, although this time in honorable impersonation, at the Maui Rotary Clubs’ big gala this year titled, “March to Victory.”

There’ll be WWII USO memorabilia, live entertainment, dancing and auctions.

Money raised will go towards various community projects. Tickets: $50, $100. For info visit online at http://canteen2007.com.

Wednesday (May 23), 5 & 7:30 p.m. at the Castle Theater, MACC

[EDUCATIONAL HIKE] Stop complaining about not knowing anyone nice in politics and take a tour with one. Led by Sierra Club Hawaii chairperson/Maui County General Plan Advisory Committee board member/former candidate for the East Maui County Council Lucienne de Naie, this historical tour of Makena is sure to be hot, sweaty and breathtaking.

The one-mile hike takes troopers from the first Makena parking lot to Keawalai Church. We’re all hoping that anyone planning on attending can trace their own way back to their car—so take water!

Sunstroke is a killer. Not that it’s considered an arduous hike, taking three hours to go just one sight-filled mile with plenty of stops along the way. Kids are welcome and there’s an ocean to cool off in. If you ever needed an excuse to go to the beach, this is it. Free. Call 214-0147. [KIRA SABINI]

[MAUI FILM FESTIVAL] This week’s Avenue Montaigne is “…about a beautiful young woman who comes to Paris and lands a job waiting tables at a chic bistro on famed Avenue Montaigne, the city’s nexus for art, music, theater and fashion.” Oh yeah, so kind of like Market Street in Wailuku, right? Awesome. In French with English subtitles. Rated PG-13/108 min. Tickets: $10.

FILMCRITIQUE

BY COLE SMITHEY COLE@MAUITIME.COM

Generational Bubble Searching for an anti-hero Luke Wilson’s written, acted and debut-co-directed homage to offbeat 1970’s era satires is a study in movieby-committee entropy. Made with five Wilson family members, the rambling story follows fictional goodhearted Texas criminal Wendell Baker (Luke Wilson) whose extended prison sentence, for selling counterfeit driver’s licenses to Mexican immigrants, motivates him to pursue hotel management.

The Wendell Baker Story

★★★★★ Rated PG-13/99 min.

Still heartbroken at the loss of his truelove Doreen (Eva Mendes), Wendell takes an administrative post at Shady Grove, a shabby retirement hotel overseen by a couple of con men nurses running a perplexing Medicare scam. Wendell’s fast friendship with a crew of quirky residents, played by Harry Dean Stanton, Seymour Cassel and Kris Kristofferson, results in a last-ditch attempt to steal Doreen away from the grubby hands of her grocery store manager husband Dave Bix (Will Ferrell).

It’s evident by the incremental nar-

26

MAY 17, 2007

rative skids that come with the passing of each of its three acts that Luke Wilson started out with an energized idea that he simply couldn’t sustain. In spite of Eva Mendes’ absent romantic chemistry, we get swept up in Wilson’s easygoing charisma as a con man social activist.

Wendell compares the Rio Grande to the Tigris River as he and his partner-incrime Reyes (Jacob Vargas) set up their mobile shop to sell phony IDs to illegal migrant workers. Wendell is a yammer, and he takes pride in spinning a yarn about all of the famous Latinos he has supposedly made friends with over the course of his long career in forgery.

Calling his Airstream trailer office “the Ellis Island of the Southwest,” Wendell goes on at length to prospective Mexican clients about his personal relations with Salma Hayek and Jennifer Lopez. It’s fun to listen to Wendell talk in a combination of character and theme lines that promise a rowdy rebellious anti-hero cut from the same burnt hickory as Jack Nicholson’s character in Five Easy Pieces. But then the shortcuts begin.

After being arrested and sent to the big house, Wendell brokers an offscreen truce between penitentiary gangs of Crips and Skinheads that’s funny for its droll implications, but the humor evaporates too soon because we don’t get to watch him do it. Luke Wilson takes an anti-Woody Allen approach to writing and connecting scenes. He’s not confident enough as a screenwriter or as a comedian to put his neck out on the line for a laugh.

MAUI TIME WEEKLY

Would you buy a used movie from this man?

Wilson co-directed the movie with his older brother Andrew, also making his directorial debut, and the diluted effort shows strain just when the movie should hit its stride. After getting a somewhat belated discharge because of his cheesy demeanor toward the parole board, Wendell takes to his new job at Shady Grove like a fish to water.

Standing in the way of his envisioned glory is head nurse Neil King (Owen Wilson) and his lackey sidekick McTeague (Eddie Griffin in a futile role). Neil revels in being snarky to Wendell and to the hotel’s vulnerable tenants. He’s set up to be a proper antagonist but the character

all but falls off of the radar after making a few derogatory comments and hinting at his corrupt plans.

The Wendell Baker Story comes to gravitate around aging rest home inhabitants Skip (Harry Dean Stanton), Boyd (Seymour Cassel) and Nasher (Kris Kristofferson), all of whom dream of one last sensual encounter with the fairer sex.

Stanton and Cassel pour on the charm and the actors’ real-life friendship of 40years spices the episode with a texture of lively improvisation.

These two highly accomplished actors could command their own picture. Now there’s a sustainable idea for a movie. MTW

BY SAMANTHA CAMPOS SAM@MAUITIME.COM

Oral Diamonds Talking to Mic Crenshaw just in time for Hip-Hop Week It’s Hip-Hop Appreciation Week, y’all! It’s actually the 10th annual nationally recognized celebration. No, it doesn’t mean free parking but it does allow us to ask why there’s a hip-hop movement in the first place.

Here to help out is Mic Crenshaw, an esteemed slam poet, hip-hop educator and emcee from Portland, Oregon.

I talked to him by phone last week.

Mic Crenshaw With Amphibeus Tungs and Terms None.

Saturday (May 19), at Casanova; Tuesday (May 22) at Paradice Bluz.

MAUI TIME WEEKLY: So you’re on your “Feast or Famine” tour right now, right?

MIC CRENSHAW: No, I’m actually back in the Pacific Northwest, working on a Dead Prez concert May 26 I have to organize and promote, as well as get those guys here. I went to Rwanda in 2004 for a conference on youth empowerment and economic injustice… and I’ve since started a nonprofit locally, with these ticket sales going to help ship computers to Rwanda and Burundi. I’ve got a lot on my plate.

Yeah, it does seem like you have a lot going on, with your side projects, solo tour, teaching, etc. You must be hooked to the energy.

That’s really what it is. No one thing really satisfies.

Why’d you decide to come to Hawai`i?

Terms None [Maui MC/slam poet, formerly of Washington] I’ve known for years. He brought me out to Spokane once, we free-styled. There was this Slam Wish I did on election year—a poetry slam for whoever had the best anti-Bush poem, and Terms None won and went on to the nationals. So I don’t know if he’s returning the favor or if he just wants me out there.

Oh, it’s probably both. What’s the hiphop scene like in Portland?

There’s an amazing amount of talent here but it’s all independent. There’s a couple of guys—Boom Bap and Grayskul—but they’re pretty under the radar. Hip-hop in other cities really respect hip-hop here. But as far as having economic support and resources, there isn’t any.

How did Hungry Mob [hip-hop crew from Portland since ‘94] come about?

I started Hungry Mob with some other cats, playing and promoting, doing some regional shows but we never nationally toured because I wasn’t satisfied—there’s certain limitations with a live band with six members and families—which is why I started other projects that are more stripped down. Suckapunch is just me and another guy, so when I come down [to Hawai`i] it’s actually Suckapunch music I’ll be doing.

What was it like opening for KRS-One?

u

aui • •M K

i ua a

Oa h

Sweet Life Fruit Co.

Yeah, we opened for him a few years ago, and it was one of the greatest shows of my career. We opened for a legend, first of all. And we played a middle slot, which meant the energy of the crowd—they already had their drinks and were excited, not tired yet. It was, like, 500 people. And I just feed off of that energy. Sometimes doing these shows, performing for four people, I really have to pull it out of myself.

How did you get started in poetry slams and do you still do them?

I was trying to get a slam started here, trying to register this restaurant. It’s the root of my lyricism; rap is poetry for me.

I competed against Saul Williams in ‘96 in the nationals in Portland. And that’s when I learned. Lyricism should be as good with music as it is without.

Who inspires you, musically and lyrically?

Immortal Technique—he’s a good MC, one of my favorites. Nightclubber Lang from Boom Bap Project, Pharoahe Monch… there’s a girl—Rasheeda Ameera—out here… There’s a definite line between being a consumer and being a creator. I’ve been on the creator side and I don’t get to listen to a lot of new music.

I’m busy doing stuff. When I travel I can listen to music, but yeah… people are really kinda opinionated about hip-hop.

Are you still teaching?

Yeah, I’m an independent contractor. I now have an extended residency teaching at a middle school that I once quit to pursue music. So it’s nice to go back as a fulltime artist. It’s good for young people,

too, to see artists who are determined.

What advice would you give kids trying to do what you do?

Do what you love. It’s not easy. Any young person who has a gift, I try to develop it. A lot of kids in high school are trying to find that voice. I see young people who have gone on to do great things— I don’t claim responsibility, but when they come up and tell me… I’m blown away. The content of what I do is sociopolitical, historical, cultural—where hip hop came from—we’re channeling our culture, oral traditions, ancient traditions, in an environment that’s kind of forced us to be diamonds, you know, ‘cuz there’s a lot of economic oppression by a white supremacist/imperialist culture. If I can’t get that across, then I’m not doing my job. People will murder you, suck your energy, just to get a dollar. That’s what we’re still dealing with, what my ancestors were dealing with. Now, what it’s about?

SIGNLANGUAGE

CAERIEL CRESTIN SIGN.LANGUAGE.ASTROLOGY@GMAIL.COM

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) You’re tough. Sometimes that means it’s your job to take more on than, say, your partner or your friends, simply because you can. You can handle that little bit of extra abuse or punishment, while they’d crumple beneath the pressure. I guess you’re thinking how much it sucks to be you right now, but maybe you can see it another way: It may be twisted, but you’re actually lucky that you’re strong enough to take it, and to be able to show those you love just how much you adore them by picking up some of their slack.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) You did stuff a decade ago that you’d be embarrassed about now, and chances are in 10 years you’ll be sheepish about whatever you do tomorrow. That’s life. Resisting change is futile, especially this week. Shit finds you either way, but the good stuff only comes along if you’re willing to embrace and seek out the new. Besides, if you’re really the same person you were a decade ago, I feel sorry for you. How dull. I know you value certain things about who you were 10 years ago, but there’s a way to keep those essentials while welcoming vital transformation. This week, show us you know how to do exactly that.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) Some of your friends have discovered that you’re a convenient mouthpiece they can use to voice anything dissenting, unpleasant or unpopular. Being outspoken is one of your talents, but it’s also a kind of curse. Don’t let yourself play the role of ventriloquist’s dummy. If your buddies have something unpleasant to say, let them say it themselves. They probably won’t, which begs the question: if it wasn’t worth it to them to open their mouths to speak their piece, why should you?

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) My mom used to frequently (half) joke that the main reason she had kids was for the free labor.

There’s nothing wrong, of course, with giving your children chores and responsibilities, but it’s important to remember your duty to them, too. Whether you’re a parent, a boss, a teacher, or anyone who has some degree of authority over others, you have an obligation to them as well. Their wellbeing, to some extent, is your responsibility. Your job, especially this week, is to use that authority in the way that will benefit them the most, not you.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) I’m always astonished by how many people believe in heaven and hell. They obviously haven’t thought through their ideas to their logical conclusions, and seen how completely preposterous and unworkable they are. You’ve been a bit lazy, too. What you’ve chosen to put your faith and energy into isn’t as crazy as believing in heaven, hell and purgatory, but plainly you haven’t taken more than one or two mental steps further down that path. This week, take the time to clearly picture that trail’s destination. Before you take another step, make sure it’s really someplace you’d like to go.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) Maybe you’re right in passing judgment, and maybe you’re not. In any case, can you shut up about it a bit? It’s none of your business. Although you’ve got pretty good armor between you and the world, it does have chinks, and those you’re talking shit about (however justifiably) will find and exploit them, if you don’t chill out. This might involve temporarily removing yourself from the situations that are pissing you off, but if that’s what it takes to keep from going on the holy righteous warpath, then that’s what you ought to do.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) Some say that the best offense is a good defense, and while I disagree with that in general (especially when it’s as misguided and screwed up as our supposed “war on terror”), in your case it might be your best strategy. You have a chance to knock down some of your opposition before it can pose a threat. Your alternative is waiting until those you love get hurt and fixing them up afterwards (which, of course, you’re quite good at). But wouldn’t you prefer to mix it up a bit and spare them the emotional bruises and scrapes? You can’t always do that. This week, you can.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)

Now Hiring Full- and Part-Time: Transportation Security Officers Kahului Airport • Lanai Airport

Jack-of-all-trades, but master of none—that suits you down to the ground, most of the time. But every once in a while you acquire a longing to be great, truly great at something, instead of quite good at most things. This, too, lies in your grasp, you amazing creature, but it does involve a certain amount of sacrifice (greatness generally always does). This week, a higher level of achievement is available to you, but to get there you really have to be almost insanely focused, putting pretty much everything else on the back-burner, including family, friends, downtime and fun. Now that you know it’s possible, and what it will take, it’s up to you to decide whether or not it’s worth it.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19)

Officers provide security and protection for air travelers, airports and aircraft.

You’re wiser than you think. It’s not like you have all the answers, and are ready to play spiritual advisor to all your friends. But you do have one or two answers, ones you shouldn’t hesitate to share right away. After all, you’ve spent years figuring this shit out. Just think, if you and your friends pool your collective knowledge in an open, honest and constructive way, you’ll all be that much closer to real wisdom and enlightenment. Of course, to do that, you might have to stop biting your tongue and just call it as you see it. Are you ready to do that? If so, this week, let it rip.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) You can only pour so much caffeine down your gullet before it ceases to be useful. Eventually, nothing can replace a good night’s sleep and a solid meal. Similarly, trying to compensate for other lacks in your life with artificial substitutes won’t get you anywhere. You need the real thing, whether it be love and affection, support and encouragement, or simply a purpose in life. Luckily, this week you should be able to get quite a bit closer to getting some of that good stuff into your life, and forgoing coffee (or its equivalents) forever.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) You’re practically a shape-shifter, the way you can dramatically take on different roles in various situations. Someone who meets you in one context may have tremendous difficulty recognizing you in another, because you’re not at all the same. You act differently, and may even look like someone else.

This is an amazing talent, but it can also inspire mistrust in people who require a bit more consistency in those around them. Can you be reliable as well as flexible? If so, this week make that undeniably clear.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) Where’s your moral compass pointing these days? I think it could benefit from a bit of stretching and exercise, because things are never quite as black and white as you’ve made them out to be lately. You’re likely to be operating in a very foggy gray area, this week especially. While in general you do have a good grasp of “right” and “wrong,” you’re not the be-all, end-all authority on the subject.

Sure, you could sit on your high horse and be hardnosed and unyielding, but that’d be mighty hypocritical of you. Practice compassion over principle this week. Sometime soon, you’ll be glad you did.

CELEBRATE YOUR UNIQUENESS It is in this celebration that I draw my inspiration for a private yoga exchange that helps cultivate the personalized yoga practice we are all destined to enjoy.

I offer a traditional and effective approach where a precise analysis of the physical body is taken in order to create a refined self-practice custom designed to heal and serve you. The nature of this work is highly therapeutic and is therefore also suitable for individuals experiencing physical limitations/injuries. Through the use of specific yoga asanas (poses) and alignment with one’s integrity, we rehabilitate the body. This opens the doorway to our limitless potential for personal growth and the infinite opportunities to create the life we desire.
