No More Books The MCC Library undergoes renovations If you’re planning on stopping by the library for some summer reading, you’ll have to skip the Maui Community College library this time around. It’s true: Gatsby, Yossarian, and about 61,998 others have migrated to the belly of what at this time next year will be the “wellness center.” What constituted towering stacks within the walls of the campus library is now in 5,000 cardboard boxes on the floor of a room designed to house yoga balls and dumbbells.

As a result, students will have to go off campus to check out books, pore over microfilm, and speak in loud whispers.

“This is my second renovation,” said head librarian Dorothy Tolliver, who has worked at the MCC library for 15 years. “It’s just time for us to catch up.”

Indeed, the carpeting, which will be torn up, would have been a fit on the set of Anchorman.

But updating the look of this campus hub is the tip of the iceberg.

The biggest overhaul is the replacement of the building’s air conditioning system.

Physical plant manager Robert Burton said that this entails cleaning the air ducts, replacing the air handler, and scraping out a layer of asbestos, among other things. The big

Pouchi Couture “Pamper your pouchi with style”

thing, he said, is that the upgrade will give the building’s energy efficiency a boost.

“The building is over forty years old,” Burton said. “It’s about time that we get around to changing the infrastructure.”

Burton said the A/C overhaul is vital, and recalled a whole month last year during which the A/C went on hiatus, turning the air from clammy to stuffy. Stuffiness isn’t so good for the volumes, either.

“If you lose your air conditioning, mold and mildew go nuts,” Burton said.

The renovations are part of a bigger

project that also includes upgrading the A/C in the science building. Contractor Central Construction is handling the project, which has a price tag of just over $2 million.

And while they expect to complete the science building renovations by the end of this summer, MCC students and faculty should not expect to set foot in the library until at least April of next year.

So where does this leave those who rely so heavily on those stacks in their pursuit of academic achievement?

Missing here, of course, are disgruntled quotes from students who will have to visit the Kahului or Wailuku libraries, or – gasp – a bookstore for the volumes most essential to their coursework (the campus was a ghost town at press time).

“When students found out (about the library closing) they were really unhappy,” said Distance Education Librarian Lillian Mangum. “It’s a really good central location for students to come to between classes, so it will be really hard on them.

But Tolliver says that they are doing all they can to compensate.

“The library is more than just a building. We are still providing the same quality services as we did before,” she said.

Students and faculty still have 24-hour electronic access to forty full-text databases like J-STOR, and over 30,000 electronic volumes.

They will also be able to use interlibrary loans and faculty reserves in the student learning center, where librarians will be on hand.

Tolliver said that she views this as more of an experiment than an inconvenience–as a chance to change the way students conduct research.

“The main difference here is the shift in dependence from print to electronics,” she said. MTW

ROBREPORT

BY ROB PARSONS ROBPARSONS@EARTHLINK.NET

Where’s the Water, Brah?

Picture Day The LC Adjudication Board had “school pictures” last Thursday.

However, no one told them it was picture day. And Glen Kunitake didn’t appear to be too pleased whenTommy Russo, Maui Time Weekly’s own fearless leader, was in the room taking photos and video of the LC for Maui Time readers.

East Maui taro farmers facing big challenges

But, the time has come to shine a light on the board–the good, the bad, the old and young–and finally put some faces to the names.

“I want to farm, so I gotta fight for water.”

–Wailuanui taro farmer Steven Ho‘okano ach day, a steady stream of rental cars and vans traverses the serpentine roads to East Maui and many of those traveling the Hana Highway pull over to photograph the stunning view at the Wailua Lookout. Below is a picturesque snapshot of a time gone by, with historic churches, quaint family homes, and taro patches.

But unlike the steady flow of traffic, the streams nourishing the once-verdant Wailuanui Valley have been reduced to a trickle. Hawaiian families that have worked the taro lo‘i for generations are eeking out an existence, struggling to keep their farms, way of life, and their culture alive.

“This whole valley was once open taro patches,” spoke taro-grower Norman “Bush” Martin, sweeping his arm from left to right and pointing to the steep valley walls that delineate Wailuanui. “All the way from the river to over there, and all the way to the ocean. Was all open taro patches.”

LC Watch For example, this is Frank Silva, the LC Director.

E

ating back to pre-contact times, the elaborate auwai or ditch system that brings water to the valley from three sources has nearly run dry. Early summer drought conditions are a factor, but the greater concern is the amount of water diverted by East Maui Irrigation (EMI) transporting water to central Maui sugar cane fields at rates ranging from 160 million to 450 million gallons daily, depending on seasonal conditions.

Begun in 1876, the EMI diversion of East Maui streams has continued for well over a century, and is currently used to irrigate and process 36,000 acres of sugar, with a small fraction— about eight million gallons— being treated for the upcountry drinking water supply.

But, the original lease to Alexander & Baldwin, parent company to Hawaiian Commercial & Sugar (HC&S) and EMI, states, “subject to the condition that there be no injury to the water rights of downstream land owners.”

“Water is life,” said 35-year old taro farmer Steven Ho‘okano. “They draining the life out of us.”

JUNE 12, 2008

Frank Silva More of this is needed

o‘okano is growing taro in his uncle’s lo‘i, or patches, because there is not enough water on his own land.

He once worked in the tourist industry, as a hotel worker. “I had a calling to come home,” he said. “I asked myself, ‘what am I doing? I gotta grow taro,’ It’s my kuleana, I came back to my roots.”

see WATER, page 13

And here’s Kunitake hiding behind his coffee cup. Just after this shot was taken, he asked the Director, “Are cameras allowed in this room?” Of course, the answer is yes. And that’s so readers can see what’s happening without taking a day off for the trip.

There was some liquor adjudication business too. The score from the first hearing? LC–1 Flatbread in Paia–0 when they were fined $2000 for serving a minor decoy.

New Deputy Prosecuting Attorney, Evans Smith was settling into his role in the LC hearing room.

Nothing too eventful occurred, except he kept calling Adjudication Board Chairperson, “Your Honor”.

This, of course, reminded me of Chevy Chase talking to the Judge in Caddyshack. “It’s your honor, your Honor.” But that has nothing to do with this.

Glenn Kunitake

And, Chief Enforcement Officer Bill Pacheco verified that minor decoys, which all seem to be 19 years old, are both male and female. They volunteer for the opportunity to go into the bar and practice ordering a beer. Minor decoys earn a small honorarium for the day (so as not to endanger their amateur status?). And, says Pacheco, they volunteer for the job out of a calling for public service.

Hey, lazy wahine! The taxpayers are tired of paying your rent while you surf and go to yoga. Your child is in school–you should be working, and paying your OWN way! Yet, you cut your hours because you don’t want to pay rent. You are also “working” for cash on the side. Do you report that to HUD? I bet not. You should go back to where you came from, and live in one of your dad’s five houses. Let him support you, not the hardworking taxpayers. There are plenty moms that could use the help, that don’t have the earning power of you and your college degree. If you are going to come to Maui to “play” then you should pay your own way.

COCONUT WIRELESS THE WEEK IN REVIEW

WEDNESDAY June 4 End of an era here at Maui Time, editor Anthony Pignataro has moved on leaving behind a legacy of fine journalism and public service to our Maui community. Mahalo, and best of luck Anthony.

Another packed house at the Maui County Council’s Planning Committee meeting this week. Once again the committee is taking up the Bed and Breakfast/Transient Vacation Rental (TVR) mess and heard testimony from 27 people Tuesday. The Maui News reported that following the meeting it was “not immediately apparent whether they would vote or move forward,” with the committee’s bill package.

Obviously this hearing is yet another example of Maui’s stunning bureaucratic efficiency.

Legal B&B owner and former Vice President of the Maui B&B association, Eva Tantillo said the meeting was nothing new. “It’s hard to say what the take was because it was all public testimony.

It’s the same thing as the last two years, different people saying the same thing,” she said. “It needs to get out of committee and voted on by the whole council.”

On the Orwellian front, a small article today in the Honolulu Advertiser reported that the Hawaii Tourism Authority will sponsor a program to increase video surveillance in Waikiki and parts of the Big Island in the name of crime prevention. According to the article, Maui County officials are considering similar programs. Big Brother (or is that

THURSDAY, June 5 Molokai Properties Ltd., — after shutting down operations in April which included Molokai Ranch – has also announced it will be shutting down its utility operations on the island in August. The move will essentially leave water and waste operations up in the air for over 1,000 residents in Maunaloa and Kaluakoi. Maui County Mayor Charmaine Tavares found herself backpedaling a bit following an apparent misunderstanding that had Molokai Properties issuing press releases claiming the county would take over the utility operations. This prompted Tavares to tell The Maui News, “I don’t know what meeting he (Molokai Properties CEO Peter Nicholas) was at.”

The U.S. Navy conducted a test today of its Aegis ballistic missile defense system by taking out a scud roughly 100 miles off the coast of Kauai. This a few months after the same vessel, The USS Lake Erie, shot down an “errant” satellite a couple months ago. All this posturing and flexing of military muscle is fine and dandy, but with a $40 million price tag per test, you’d think they’d call it good at 26. Besides, how big a threat are Scud missiles these days? Weren’t we already shooting those down in the first Gulf War?

FRIDAY, June 6 Hey, we set a record! Unfortunately, it’s for the highest average price for a gallon of gas in state history. I know, not as awesome as you thought. A gallon of regular gasoline in Hawaii now costs an average of $4.16 per gallon.

According to an article in the Honolulu Advertiser the average gallon of regular gas in Wailuku rose to – Ouch — $4.49 per gallon, shooting up nearly seven cents in a week. As the price of crude continues to rise, there seems to be no relief in sight. In fact, the only thing in sight is more of our hard-earned cash being spent at the pump. Suddenly the subtle humiliation that comes with riding a moped doesn’t seem all that bad.

Guess it’s time to trade in the Hummer.

SATURDAY, June 7 The Associated Press reports that the national unemployment rate rose to 5.5% last month calling it “the biggest one-month jump in decades.” It was also another grim week on Wall Street, where the Dow Jones Industrial Average plummeted nearly 400 points.

Oil costs are soaring, the dollar is in free fall, unemployment is up and the stock market is hurting. Think we’re still teetering on the edge of a reces-

Big Braddah is watching

sion, or have we completely fallen over the edge?

After what seemed like an endless campaign, Barack Obama finally locked up his party’s nomination following the departure of Hilary Clinton from the race. Her concession speech praised supporters, called for party unity and threw support firmly behind Obama, Maybe now the Democrats can get down to the real business at hand, defeating the Republicans in November.

Hey, not that they haven’t been doing a bang-up job these past 8 years.

Update on the utilities mess on Molokai today. The state Public Utilities Commission (PUC) slapped a big “not so fast” on Molokai Properties Ltd. telling the company they cannot shut down utility operations until a suitable entity is found to take over water and sewer services. So, while state and local officials play “hot-potato” with another privatized public works project gone sour, at least the people of Molokai will still have running water.

n’t exactly what everyone was hoping to see. And in the NBA the Boston Celtics and L.A. Lakers rekindled their longstanding rivalry with the C’s taking the first two games of the seven-game championship series in Beantown. The series returns to L.A. this week. I know it’s not this paper’s prerogative to report on sports but it’s nice to take your mind off the politicians, the economy, soaring gas prices and the war in Iraq once in a while isn’t it? That is the point after all.

MONDAY, June 9 Another round of rate hikes for the nation’s airlines.

The Honolulu Advertiser ran an AP story today explaining how surging oil costs have forced nearly every major carrier to jack up ticket prices by an average of $20. Can’t think of a place where this is felt more acutely than on an island archipelago 3,000 miles from the nearest continental land mass. If you’re planning a trip to the mainland this summer, better book it soon because plane tickets seem to just keep going up.

Diversifying?

Tough to decide whether ML&P should go up or down this week. On the one hand we have The Maui News article quoting chief operating officer Rob Webber saying the current economic situation is scaring the giant landowner. Using words like “nervous” and “coping with challenges” doesn’t exactly sound like a good prospectus for shareholders.

Then there’s the whole “busted budget” business surrounding the massive Ritz-Carlton renovation. On the other hand, there’s the article in the same issue of The Maui News praising the success of Hawai’i BioEnergy, an ML&P side project. Born to propagate alternative energy systems, the company is also getting help from the US government.

The article reports an unspecified grant was given to the company to help develop technology that turns algae into jet fuel. The shadowy defense agency DARPA (Defense Advanced Projects Agency) also funds such mysterious programs as the HARRP antenna array in Alaska and the “total information awareness” intelligence gathering project touted

by Dick Cheney. When you have backing from government agencies like that, there’s no doubt you’re a power player. Besides, two feature pieces for Webber in one Sunday issue has got to be worth something.

Gas Problems You’d think with gas prices soaring, Tesoro Hawai’i would be soaring up the charts as one of the county’s largest gasoline retailers. But an article in the Pacific Business News reported this week that the high prices are hitting gas stations hard too. People are simply just not buying as much gas.

The article reported that gas sales in March were around 33 million gallons compared to nearly 47 million last March. With many businesses and individuals seeking alternative transportation and energy options, the slow sucking demise of your corner quick-mart and gas station may have finally begun. Carpooling, public transportation and alternative energy might be good for the environment, but not for gas stations. MTW

TIME OF DEATH

BIG DEAL!

In what would be a new modern record for the lapse of time between a death and its notice, neighbors found the mummified body of a Croatian woman in her Zagreb apartment in May, and police said no one remembered seeing her alive after 1973. (A Croatian news organization said the last sighting was in 1967.) She missed no maintenance payments because her building, which was state-owned when she was last seen, has since become a cooperative, and aggregate charges were paid for collectively by the other residents.

March is the season for Shinto religious fertility festivals in Japan at which symbolic phalluses are offered to the gods for business fortune as well as good sexual and marital luck. In the small town of Komaki, a 2-meter-long phallus is carried through town every year and presented to the local temple. The best-known celebration is the Kanamara Matsuri (“Festival of the Iron Penis”) in Kawasaki, where colorful phallus floats abound and delight the children of all ages who line the streets.

In a well-publicized story in January, two New York City men were charged with fraud after they rolled a dead friend’s body in a chair from their apartment to a check-cashing store, propping him up to suggest that he was alive and wanted the men to cash his Social Security check for him. In May, a judge set the men free after they told him that the three had an income- and expense-sharing arrangement and that they thought their friend was merely incapacitated. Since the autopsy was inconclusive as to time of death, the charges were dropped.

808.268.7870

WRONG PLACE, WRONG TIME In April in Marion, Ill., an alert newspaper carrier discovered an 84-year-old woman who was alive but had been pinned to the floor for four days without food or water because her much larger husband, 77, had died of a heart attack and fallen on top of her. (In a notorious 1984 incident at a strip club in San Francisco, a dancer had been pinned down overnight underneath the body of club manager Jimmy Ferrozzo, who had had a fatal heart attack while having sex with her. She could not move because they were lying on top of a stage piano that descended on a pulley, for the dancer’s grand entrance, and Ferrozzo, in the throes of ecstasy, had accidentally tripped the switch sending it back up, where it jammed against the ceiling.)

In 2006, News of the Weird featured the 5-year-old boy who was set to enter kindergarten as a 5-year-old girl after his parents agreed with therapists that 5 is not too young to be formally switching genders. In 2007, pediatric endocrinologist Norman Spack started a gender-identity clinic at Children’s Hospital Boston, motivated by his observation that even preadolescents can be at risk to harm themselves if they are confused or angry about their sexual orientation. According to a March 2008 Boston Globe report, Spack first recommends drugs to delay puberty, to give the child more time, before moving on to the usually irreversible effect of genderchanging hormones.

ROBREPORT WATER: continued from page 6 o‘okano and Martin led me through the valley, showing the severe impacts of too little water.

Banks of the ditches were dry, cracked, and weedy. Many patches were not planted, lying fallow and chest high with weeds. While some taro patches had water flowing through them, others, nearly ready to harvest, were bone dry.

Water must not only be available to nourish the taro and discourage weeds, but it must be cold enough to provide optimal growth. “You can’t put in warm water, no way,” said Ho‘okano. “Hot water cooks the taro.

They get disease. You cut them open and it looks like guava seed.”

The lehua variety of taro takes nine to twelve months to be ready for harvest, while the moi variety can take longer, 16 months or more. “If it’s rotten,” said Martin, “you lost time and money. It must be flowing, cool, steady water.”

“Everybody in this place works really hard,” said Ho‘okano. “This is our church, where we find peace of mind. Where our heart is.”

Sufficient cool water in the early stages of planting also helps drown out weeds. In later stages, it doesn’t make sense to pull weeds, as it can harm the developing taro corms. “We can’t weed when they stay like this,” said Ho‘okano, looking over one of his patches. “It does more damage than good, it disturbs the taro.

“Taro, you gotta watch ‘em like kids.

They need a lot of love, and everything.”

H

o‘okano’s love for the taro and for practicing the farming lifestyle at his cultural roots has led him to become active in a variety of issues.

He helped organize an educational demonstration the weekend of Hana’s Taro Festival in late April, holding signs along the highway and providing printed pamphlets to passers-by.

He is among many East Maui Hui residents who traveled to Kahului on three occasions to protest the arrival of Hawaii Superferry, believing it will increase pressure on the limited resources of their area. He noted that Superferry passengers have already been discovered with large stashes of ‘opihi and edible limu, attempting to take it back to Oahu for commercial sale.

“Even though we live in a beautiful place,” said Ho‘okano, “our resources are being tapped.”

Ho‘okano also took part in protests at the state capital in Honolulu last January, seeking a ten-year moratorium on genetic research for taro. UH

H

researchers insist they are interested in developing disease-resistant varieties.

The moratorium bill passed the Senate before being stalled in the House Agriculture Committee, and legislators will revisit the bill next year.

“We don’t need GMO, we need water,” said Ho‘okano. He also noted that their kupuna knew that kukui nuts had antifungal properties and would put them in the ground along with the taro. “If the taro is all palahu (rotten),” he said, “you no can use the cuttings, either.

Everybody is sharing cuttings.

“This is who we are. It’s our culture, our identity. If the taro die, we die.” he legal efforts to restore stream flows in East Maui were begun seven years ago by Wailuanui taro farmer Ed Wendt and others, with the assistance of the Native Hawaiian Legal Corporation (NHLC). While their petition by law should have been ruled upon with 180 days, to date there still has not been a lawful determination on water allocation.

A recent public scoping meeting held at the Haiku Community Center by the state Commission for Water Resource Management (CWRM) boiled over with frustration at the process. No CWRM members were in attendance, only staff, and EMI officials were targeted as the cause of the discontent.

Moreover, much of EMI’s diverted water is taken from state lands—33,000 acres actually are crown lands, or lands native Hawaiians never surrendered.

“These lands should be used to support Hawaiian culture,” said NHLC attorney Alan Murakami, “rather than used as a resource, taken by a private entity without regard for these rights. Quoted in the Hanaside News, Murakami continued, “What are we doing here? Depriving Hawaiians, who have suffered for decades, of water they need to sustain their culture.”

T

have farmed taro for generations.

“All the laws are in our favor,” said Ho‘okano, “but nobody like enforce them. Not just me and Bush, but everybody’s got cracks in their taro patches.

No more water.” n the summertime, the growers said, everyone wants poi for parties and graduation. “My cousin graduated last week,” said Martin. “I had to tell him I can’t make poi.”

Martin also provides taro to the Aloha Poi Factory in Wailuku. Sometimes he can only provide half of an order, forty pounds out of eighty. He once was able to pull 2530 bags a week, with each bag weighing 85-90 pounds.

“Now, maybe two bags a week,” said Martin, “and half the year, cannot pull.”

I

n the old days, farmers used to carry out 100 pound bags from the back of the valley, historically one of the most important growing regions on the island.

A 1995 study based on an aerial survey noted 339 separate taro lo‘i.

Now, farmers access their fields with the help of quad-track all-terrain vehicles, over a series of trails and wooden bridges. Rising gas prices also affect them, as weed-eaters, tillers, and mowers are utilized to complement the handwork

of taro cultivation.

“This was a sustainable community for generations,” said Ho‘okano. “Now, we struggling. We need water, brah. What’s happening here is cultural genocide.”

Still Ho‘okano sees promise in the fallow patches. “The closed patches is the healing, waiting for the water.

Underneath, the worms are doing their job. The world looks pretty bad right now as far as sustainable. We gotta learn how to be sustainable.” MTW

hen EMI and A&B sought to extend their yearly water leases from year-to year bids to a thirty-year agreement in 2002, many spoke out and intervened. Judge Eden Hifo refused the long-term lease, and ruled that the state must first determine how much water needed to be released to protect native water rights in 27 streams on Haleakala’s windward slopes.

The Department of Land & Natural Resources determined there must be a stream monitor, though two previous monitors have since been reassigned.

In March, 2008, the CWRM issued a 100-page draft public review document, the Wailuanui Instream Flow Assessment Report. However, the issuance of the study, filled with colorful maps, tables, and historical data, has yet to result in more water being returned to those who

We’re not as shapely as we used to be and it appears that slackin’ and poor nutrition are the culprits. But being labeled the “most obese county in the state,” ironically, is leading us to some interesting new places.

ost people might know that when it comes to obesity rates, Hawaii does pretty well compared to the rest of the country. In fact, according to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), only Colorado and Connecticut were less obese in 2007. But, according to Hawai`i State Director of Health Chiyome Fukino, M.D., “From 1990 to 2006, Hawaii’s obesity rate more than doubled from 9.1 percent to 20.6 percent. This equates to approximately 196,300 obese adults.”

M

o, what if you’re a Skinny Bones Jones? Just because you may not have a weight problem, doesn’t mean the problem isn’t affecting you. In fact, there’s tons of data saying, “Care.” Through taxes, everyone with a job in Hawaii contributed to the $140 million in medical care in 2005 for preventable hospital charges–pertaining to disease related to inactivity, obesity and poor nutrition–according to the state Department of Health (DOH).

Various studies have found that employees are less productive and even show up less if they’re overweight.

Of course this means consumers end up paying more for products or services. Why? Because employers usually tack the costs that they’re paying on health care on to the retail price. For example, General Motors has reported that for them, this cost is roughly $2000 per car that they sell, which is more than the cost of the steel to build it.

And maybe the best reason to care is that, according to an analysis published in the March 17, 2005 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, the current generation may be the first generation not to outlive their parents, due to health issues relating to our current lifestyle.

S

n 2007, Maui County won the award for highest obesity rate (24.1 percent of adults) in the state.

Molokai was second in the state for most obese area at 35.4 percent. Nanakuli/Waianae, in Honolulu County, took the cake in 2007 with a whopping 40 percent.

These figures may be misleading though. Here’s why. All studies point to physical activity as the overweight miracle cure. The Department of Health defines physical activity as at least 60 minutes a day, five days a week for children and at least 30 minutes a day, five days a week for adults. But, according to the Physical Activity and Nutrition Survey of 2008, published by the DOH, the most physically active ethnicity in Hawaii is “Whites” followed by “Native Hawaiians.” Filipinos and Japanese were the least physically active during the study period of 20032005. Yet, Native Hawaiians–who when surveyed as middle-schoolers, get the best nutrition compared to other ethnicities– are overwhelmingly the most statistically obese people in Hawaii. One may notice a kink in the logic train here.

So, perhaps the definition of “obese” could shed light on this question. It is loosely defined as a weight range given a certain height. Whether the weight is bone, muscle, fat, or huge hair, is not taken into account. According to the CDC, “As a result, some people, such as athletes, may have a BMI (body mass index) that identifies them as overweight even though they do not have excess body fat.” For example, Arnold Schwarzenegger was classified as obese when he was in top competitive form.

In 1996, the Surgeon General’s Report on Physical Activity and Health concluded we should get at least 30 minutes of exercise per day for health reasons (currently the recommendation for children is double that of adults).

We’ve been doing a terrible job of heading this recommendation ever since. “Childhood obesity, rising for more than two decades, appears to have hit a plateau, a potentially significant milestone in the battle against excessive weight gain among children,”

I

said a May 28, 2008 article in the New York Times (“Hint of Hope as Child Obesity Rate Hits Plateau”); but the article goes on to say hopes shouldn’t glimmer too brightly. They’re not sure if this plateau is significant or just a temporary lull in the climbing rates.

Of course, there is hope. In fact, by failing to win the battle against obesity, new, more successful strategies are coming to light. here is a growing body of evidence that says people living in activity-friendly neighborhoods have a 35 percent lower risk of obesity.

They’re healthier, and it makes sense.

Essential trips like going to school or to the market done on foot or by bicycle means more physical activity without even blocking out time for the gym or track. Other studies actually show that people who move to denser areas, where things like schools, work and shops are within walking distance, lose weight if they take advantage of the opportunity to leave their car behind.

Of course there’s always another side to the story.

A University of Toronto study from April 19, 2007 concluded thinner people choose to live in denser areas, so it just seems like activity friendly communities effect obesity.

Still, the former argument is winning the war of ideas. And the Hawaii DOH is now on board. Funded

by Tobacco Settlement money, the Healthy Hawaii Initiative (HHI) was formed by the DOH in 1999. They deal with healthy lifestyle issues like nutrition, smoking cessation and physical activity.

The rubber met the sidewalk when the Maui County Physical Activity and Nutrition Coalition (another offshoot of the DOH), represented by Sandra McGuiness, formed a couple months ago. The Coalition will focus on making Maui County healthier through initiatives in the built environment, health care system, work sites and schools.

Between June 2 and June 5 the 17 members–community representatives with backgrounds in health care, politics, education, etc.– met with representatives from the Mayor’s office, Maui’s state representatives, county council members, representatives from the University of Hawaii, Maui Memorial Hospital, Parks and Recreation and Alexander and Baldwin, in five community workshops.

Dr. Mark Fenton, host of the Public Broadcast System program “America’s Walking”, a Massachusetts Institute of Technology graduate and national expert on creating activity-friendly communities was a keynote speaker at HHI forums on Maui, Lana‘i and Moloka‘i.

Fenton extols the idea of activity-friendly communities with biking trails and safe pedestrian thruways, where one can walk places to get things done on foot, rather than driving. Fenton spoke about an additional benefit to these types of communities–ones specifically designed for pedestrian and bicyclist safety–that he calls the “free-range kid”.

This is a kid parents can let out in the neighborhood to play saying, “Just be home by dinner time,” without worrying for his or her safety. Of course, it’s more

T

likely than these kids will get the Surgeon General’s recommended 60 minutes of physical activity per day while romping outside with friends and siblings.

Other Maui groups are acting on their support of the idea of activity friendly communities for their own reasons. For example, a developer in downtown Paia is promoting a mix of businesses designed to foster greater pedestrian travel through the town. In this way, his lessees see more foot traffic, and business is better for everyone.

In Wailuku, Market Street is going through a rehab, and groups are pushing for mixed-use zoning.

Mixed-use zoning would bring the possibility of having a structure that has shops, office space and residential sections. The idea behind it is that people can work, play and live in the same area with little need for driving.

Sustainability groups like Maui Tomorrow advocate density rather than sprawl for a variety of reasons. It gets people out of cars, decreases pollution and dependence on foreign energy and decreases development in open space.

Likewise, the County Planning Department’s Maui Island Plan, released in April, calls for growth in the form of density and mixed-use in existing urban areas versus increased sprawl. Projects like Ma’alaea Mauka, Olowalu Town, Kaanapali 2020 and the joint A&B/ML&P project at Hali’imaile would be nixed if county council adopts the plan. enton says, “To really impact physical activity, we’re not just taking about more playing fields, basketball and tennis courts…not even about more parks and purely recreational trails, though they also have great merit.” He says essential trips, like traveling to school, work, or to the market, must be more convenient on foot. Areas must be connected via safe walkways and bikeways.

So where are these ideas already in place? One spot is in Lana‘i City (obesity rate of 23.2 percent.) In Lanai City, one can walk to the park, doctor’s office or grocery store. Upper Wailuku, Lahaina and Paia town are similar. This is probably because plantation villages were designed to work when everyone didn’t have a car.

But can existing car-centric neighborhoods change? Here Fenton presents interesting methods he’s seen work in other areas. For example, to make walk-thru neighborhoods, some municipalities are

until other work like pavement improvement or sewer repairs are necessary in order to kill two birds with one stone and reduce costs. Finally, Fenton suggests adjusting zoning to allow for at least a corner store.

As new ideas are being introduced, older ones are already happening in Maui: &B has two mixed-zoning projects on the drawing board.

enton reminded the Maui County forums that better designed communities cannot be the only solution. Programs and new policies must complement them. For example, Lana‘i City is already activity-friendly, but citizens still have high levels of disease. Fenton reported that while on Lanai, he noticed that many people drove their children, instead of walking the four blocks to school.

Hence, one goal of the Maui Physical Activity and Nutrition Coalition is to encourage employers and schools to make decisions with health goals in mind.

They will also push to get activity-friendly policies and ordinances worked into the General Plan.

And so there is hope, according to health advocates in Maui. Coalition coordinator McGuiness says, “This is a very exciting time.” As Maui continues to grow, it is beginning to pro-actively plan its future. And these choices could make us all feel better. MTW

All You Can Eat! The Rainbow Room at the Maui Beach Hotel proves that quantity and quality can go hand in hand The next time that you’re contemplating where to take the family for a tasty meal, check out the Maui Beach Hotel’s Japanese buffet dinner in the Rainbow Dining Room. Each day of the week boasts a range of food that’s fit for a king, without forcing you to cough up the big bucks.

The Rainbow Room Maui Beach Hotel 170 Ka‘ahumanu Ave, Kahului 877-0051, Dinner hours: 5:30 p.m.-close

The menu changes on certain nights, so figure out what option sounds most tempting. Mondays through Wednesdays serve up sushi

and tempura, while Thursdays are king crab legs and prime rib night. On a Friday or Saturday you can enjoy snow crab and prime rib; every Sunday hosts a teppanyaki buffet.

Though amidst the hustle and bustle of downtown Kahului, the setting of the restaurant is tranquil and inviting. Tables on a lanai allow guests to dine casually while overlooking the pool, and the buffet area has lots of different, fabulous foods to please everyone.

I showed up on a Wednesday night with my father in tow, and we were both surprised by the quality ingredients that are used for the buffet. The food is also the perfect fusion of local and Japanese cuisine, allowing diners to choose some of their favorite dishes while mixing in some Japanese classics. I had told myself that this summer I would start monitoring my poor eating habits. However, once I laid my eyes on all the delicious grinds, my binginggenes went into complete overdrive.

One of my favorites was the spring rolls stuffed with shrimp, veggies, and long rice

noodles. The flavors were just right and left me simply wanting more. The beef broccoli dish was well seasoned, and the broccoli wasn’t overcooked, as some might expect the veggies at a buffet to be. My father raved about the stuffed mussels all night, constantly reminding me that they were way better than the ones he had eaten in the Cinque Terra, Italy (an area worldly renown to have some of the best shell fish).

For those of you who actually have some self-control and want to drop a few pounds, the salad bar has lots of different components. Crisp, romaine lettuce could be accompanied with various toppings: sliced carrots, fresh cheddar and Parmesan cheese, cucumbers, tomatoes, and olives, to name a few. However, if you wanted to skip over the healthy options, a nice red potato-macaroni salad is also found in the salad area.

The specials of the night were the tempura and sushi bar, so there was no chance that I would pass up these delicious choices. The tempura batter was crisp and light,

making the shrimp tempura to die for.

Slices of green onion, sweet potato, shrimp, onion, and carrot were mixed together and dipped in the batter to create an awesome combination.

The sushi bar was equally impressive.

All of the sushi was made on a table at the buffet. Once again my father was obsessive, this time over the spicy tuna roll. The fish was diced into cubes and each piece of sushi was hand rolled in nori. Other favorites like the California and the eel rolls were delicious; the Ahi roll tempted me to start stuffing sushi in my purse to save for later.

For anyone with a sweet tooth, a wonderful assortment of pies, cakes, and soft serve yogurt are available. The costs of the buffet range from $24 up to $39 per adult (children 6-11 years range from $14 to $19.50). These prices are a deal considering that the food is unlimited and delicious. In addition a friendly, local staff will help to make the meal even more enjoyable. MTW

Places for Eggs Benny on the West Side JAVA JAZZ/SOUP NUTZ You can only get eggs benedict here on Sundays, but it’s worth making a special occasion out of this breakfast spot because, like everything on the menu, the serving is huge and satisfying. The hollandaise sauce has a little bit of savory flavor that makes it unique and interesting and you get hash browns and toast along with it.

Plus there’s all the quirky, weird stuff on the walls to ponder while you wait for breakfast to be served. 3350 L. Honoapiilani Hwy, 667-0787, Open M-Sa 6 a.m.-9 p.m. & Su 6 a.m.-5 p.m., $

CJ’S DELI AND DINER

If you don’t mind waiting in line for a bit and eating your breakfast off paper plates, CJ’s benny is great because it comes on big, fluffy English muffins with a really rich hollandaise sauce. The ham is thicksliced and smokey, which I love, and it comes with a choice of home-fry style potatoes or rice and toast.

KAHANA SANDS RESTAURANT

FRESH SEAFOOD, LOCAL BEEF, AND UPCOUNTRY GREENS

Nothing bugs me more at breakfast time than overcooked eggs and even some of the best restaurants around are guilty of bringing me stiff, rubbery, yolk-less ones. But not the Sands, where no matter how many times I test the chefs I always get perfectly runny, over-easy eggs on my benny. Lately I’ve been getting the eggs Florentine here, which is the same thing minus the ham with cooked spinach and tomato, then digging in to a big side of crispy bacon. 4299 Lower Honoapiilani Hwy., Kahana, 669-5000, Open daily 7:30 a.m.-9 p.m., $

MOOSE MCGILLYCUDDY’S The eggs benedict at Moose’s is sufficiently good, with a creamy sauce that’s just high enough on the grease factor to help a girl recover from a night of dollar drinks at the very same bar. The muffins are toasty and the side of country-style potatoes is plentiful, but the best thing about breakfast here is that it’s cheap.

Probably the cheapest I’ve had out here in Lahaina, and I’m a big fan of going out to breakfast. 844 Front St., Lahaina, 667-7758, Open daily 7:30 a.m.-1:30 a.m., $

I’ve never had the eggs benedict here, at least not the traditional kind. What I always order at this tiny, perfect little breakfast spot is called country benedict and it comes with two thick, delicious patties of sweet breakfast sausage atop a couple of crispy muffins and beneath two eggs that are smothered in a slightly lemony hollandaise. I’d be willing to bet that the traditional benny is amazing here too, but I will never know because I can’t see myself straying from this delicious variation. 5315 Lower Honoapiilani Hwy., Napili, 669-5621, Open daily 7:30 a.m.-2 p.m., $ MTW

[MUSIC] Back before techno was techno, there was Derrick May. In the mid 1980s, while I occupied my time dressing up dolls and learning the alphabet, May was busy being a musical genius in Detroit. Along with high school friends Juan Atkins, Kevin Saunderson and Eddie Fowlkes, May jump-started a new trend in music that synthesized funk, soul and R& B beats into a sound called techno that quickly spread across the nation and the world. More than 20 years later the musical mastermind still packs dance floors with his distinctive style of electronic music and pushes the frontier of beats in innovative directions that inspire DJs and partiers everywhere. Tracks like “Nude Photo” and “Strings of Life” put him on the map back in the day and May hasn’t stopped impacting the techno scene since. If it sounds like I’m fawning over him, I am, because this guy is a really big deal, and once again Casanova and NITELIFE are bringing it home to Maui with some seriously respectable beats.

ThIS WEEK’S PICKS

by Starr Begley

Pimp and Ho! Saturday, (Jun. 14) 10 p.m.

Giovanni’s, Ka`anapali.

[PARTY] Not that anyone cares, but I spent the last few months in school working towards a more egalitarian society, as well as educating on and promoting safer sex practices. To write about this is…anticlimactic, to say the least. So ladies, buy the skimpiest thing you can find, and go out there and be objectified! Gentlemen, feel free to forget that many women have worked hard to overcome subservient stereotypes! But, when you’re wonderfully drunk and sloppy, ready to bump uglies with that hot pimp/ho, I want you to remember: The Center for Disease Control has found that 1 in 4 teenage girls already have an STD, and that most condom fail rate comes from human error.

Not only bring a condom, but practice putting one on. $10, $5 in costume. www.myspace.com/elementsentertainment808 [YNEZ TONGSON]

THURSDAY

Upcountry Fair Saturday-Sunday, (Jun. 14-15) 9 a.m.-5 p.m. at the Oskie Rice Rodeo Grounds, Makawao [EVENT] What’s not to love about a fair? There’s food, live entertainment, a sense of community and in this case, livestock. I hear there might be pony rides too. As someone who hails from central Maui, my childhood was completely devoid of pony rides. So, unless you want your kid to end up like me, I would highly recommend you take them to the Upcountry Farm Fair this weekend. This one action might save you a lot in future therapy bills. Then again, just spending time at the fair with your family, even sans pony rides, might save you a lot of money in the therapy department.

Admission: Free. [YT]

The line to see Tom and Jerry (hopefully they won’t be trying to kill each other with cheese-graters and mallets) starts at noon. As an added bonus, the first 100 kids in line will get a mall backpack filled with goodies worth over 50 clams.

Yeah, you better get there early. [SB]

DAY

[MUSIC] You know, music doesn’t always have to be about fast, hard-hitting beats and ear-splitting rock and roll. Some times a girl just wants to sit back and listen to the soothing, powerful tunes of a classical organ while a choir sings something ethereal and soulfully... oh, who am I kidding? I haven’t seen the inside of a church since before leg warmers were cool and the only time I hear organ music is during the scary, suspenseful parts of B movies, so I’ll just give you the good, old-fashioned facts. Concert organist extraordinaire Paul Jacobs has some serious credibility. For starters he received a Masters in music from Yale University and is now the Chairman of the organ department at the Julliard School in New York City.

Jacobs been named Best Organist by New York magazine, has won dozens of awards and has a huge repertoire of classical and contemporary music. Yeah, he’s bad-ass, even if he does play the classical organ. Admission is free. 579-9261 [JA]

FILMCRITIQUE

BY BARRY WURST II BARRY@MAUITIME.COM

It’s Not Easy Being Green The Incredible Hulk

The common response upon discovering the Super-Hero gods gave you RAD powers, but a little dinky! ere’s something that I don’t often say in mixed company- I really liked Ang Lee’s much-hated The Hulk. Sure, the film had some real flaws: it was too slow, talky, and had a lousy, strangely Freudian climactic battle. At the same time, I also found it powerful, ambitious and directed with style and skill.

Yet, without question, this new incarnation, The Incredible Hulk, is

H

what audiences wanted the first time. It never stops moving, is action-packed and genuinely feels like a comic book movie. The comparison to Lee’s version isn’t fair, as this is a completely different approach. The better comparison is to “Iron Man” and, for a while, the movie appears to be on that level.

The opening credits sequence fully sets up the story. Bruce Banner (an engaging Edward Norton) is on the run after a scientific experiment goes sour, rendering

him a distant cousin of the Green Bean Giant every time he gets angry; his only friend is the woman he left behind (portrayed with warmth by Liv Tyler) and his biggest foe is her Dad (William Hurt), a wicked general who wants to use Banner’s powers as a military weapon.

The Incredible Hulk

★★★★★ Rated PG-13/114 min.

Tim Roth makes the most of his one-note villain role, but much worse is Hurt, sporting hilarious fake eyebrows (he looks like an angry Vulcan) that are as ridiculous as his performance. The first hour, particularly the exciting and inventive portion set in Brazil, is great. The inevitable finale, on the other hand, is a seen-it-before monster mash, with pieces of “Spider-Man 3”, “Transformers”, and “Robocop 2” melded together.

The special effects are impressive, but they eventually take over the movie, and the overall impression is that the filmmakers wanted to reboot a franchise instead of craft a fully fleshed out story.

Still, the film is always compelling, well directed and has a needed sense of humor, but many of the characters are left stranded and the big finish is more silly than satisfying.

A major, much-discussed, last minute cameo appearance by a famous actor (in a well-known role) seems forced and does little for the movie, though comic book fans probably won’t mind. Much better is the surprise bit role by Lou Ferrigno of the original Hulk TV series. Just don’t make Ferrigno angry. You won’t like him when he’s angry. MTW

ART&ENTERTAINMENT

BY HELEN ANNE SCHONWALTER HELEN@MAUITIME.COM

The Intentions of Three Getting deep with local artists on display at the Schaefer Gallery

While pictorial and sculptural art often relies on intuitive interpretation, the process of creating is intentional. Three artists working in three different media from three different Hawaiian Islands have brought their work to the Schaefer Gallery in the hopes of expanding the vision, jolting complacency and bring inward serenity to viewers.

Natural GroundIntentions of Three.

Exhibit runs May 11-June 15.

Schaefer International Gallery hours: Tue-Sun daily 11 a.m. 5 p.m. MACC 242-7469.

Lynne Gilroy lives in Makena on a bluff overlooking the ocean. From this vantage point she observes the seasonal changes in the play of light on clouds, water and land. In large oil canvases Gilroy has “taken realistic elements [and presented them] in a series of patterns that reflect her interest in atmospheric perspective” said Darrell Orwig,

MAUI TIME WEEKLY

(Above) Lynne Gilroy’s work (Right) Linda Kane’s work (Below) Randy Takaki

Schaefer Gallery curator.

A great example is Gilroy’s South/Summer-Sunrise at Kalaeoka’ilio, which is divided into five bands suggesting consecutive frames of filmstrip. The luminosity of clouds at dawn, the gathering of darkness in rain-laden clouds followed by a dramatic releasing of rain, and finally clouds lifting to reveal a distant landscape is wondrous to behold.

Moving on from the bright luminous colors of Gilroy’s oils, the next thing the viewer encounters are the subdued black and white charcoal canvases of Linda Kane of O’ahu.

Using charcoal on paper and found natural objects, Kane creates powerful “installation works” that are threedimensional when put together. Tree trunks and sheared branches of discarded Christmas trees stand between the viewer and the charcoal canvases.

According to Kane, the “Recycled wood sculpture and the charcoal painting work off each other.

The three dimensional juxtaposition intrudes in our space.”

In Lele Ka Hoaka, “the spirit has flown away”, the charcoal is refined and controlled.

The viewer’s eyes are drawn into a vortex meant to express the artist’s sense of foreboding: “My mom was really sick at that time,” said Kane.

Other canvases are roughed up. “I take white square erasers, slice them down like white bread to get a sharp edge,” said Kane. With these erasers, Kane works

away at the charcoal with a ferocity that reveals her admitted anger at the loss of wahi pana–sacred places–and locales beloved to Hawaiians.

Next, the viewer moves into the gallery devoted to the work of sculptor Randy Takaki of Hawai‘i, Takaki creates his sculpture from found and salvaged wood that has history. In one three-foot high sculpture, according to Takaki, a tiny figure sits atop posts from a house built in the 1930s.

The figure, entitled Wu Wei, is looking down from a place of “serenity, peace and quiet”–the essence of Taoism from which the term wu wei is taken. Like a Japanese landscape painting, the figure is dwarfed, nameless and faceless–humbled by the surroundings.

Three years ago, Takaki was studying in Japan in a cabin in a white cypress forest. The sculptures have “Helped me understand my awakened sense of humanity,” said Takaki. “I don’t understand when I’m doing these sculptures, but I am growing spiritually from them” said Takaki. MTW

The Dark Side of Entertainment Murder by Death Red of Tooth and Claw [CD] If you want to know how this band sounds, think of Johnny Cash’s rendition of “Hurt,” by Nine Inch Nails.

If you need more convincing that this album is worth listening to—there’s a hot, talented female cellist in the band.

Adam Turla’s deep vocals coupled with dark, story-telling lyrics draw up images of cowboys who have a good ole cigarette for breakfast, drink hard liquor, smile at the ladies often and fight a little too much. Like many of Murder by Death’s other works, there‘s a theme within the album. In this instance, it’s the anti-hero you can’t help but admire. Red of Tooth and Claw is a great introduction album to Murder by Death.

House of Leaves By: Mark Z. Danielewski [BOOK] This horror novel seems like it was put together by highly caffeinated art students, given to a bunch of inebriated psychology majors and finally edited by a disgruntled English graduate, resigned to working in coffee shops. At its core, House of Leaves is a story about a haunted house. Everywhere else, though, it’s filled with coded messages, multiple stories and formatting tricks that intensify the suspense of the novel. This is definitely not the easy reading you bring to the beach. Instead of heading to the beach on those windy summer days that entail having sand blown into crevices you didn’t even know you had, get this book, find someplace relatively peaceful and enjoy.

Super Smash Brothers Brawl Nintendo Wii [GAME] This game could easily suck up your soul. I can barely describe the multiplayer game without the use of expletives.

Sure, you’re going to hear some critiques about loading times and background detail, but that doesn’t mean this game is any less awesome. Super Smash Bros. Brawl offers something for gamers everywhere, from the n00b to the seasoned videogame veteran.

Those who have invested blood, sweat and tears into Nintendo games will appreciate the multitude of familiar characters that appear in the game. Newcomers to the addiction will appreciate the simple controls and friendly game play. And even onlookers will enjoy the weird jerking motions many players make, in an attempt to make their characters do what they want, as well as the sudden attack of Tourette’s when a character is blown off the screen.

Their new release, The Vegas Years has the same tight, alternative sound that I fell in love with when I heard “Father of Mine” and “I Will Buy You a New Life,” though, and they’ll definitely play some of the originals and dynamic covers that I know and love when I think of Everclear.

CAERIEL CRESTIN SIGN.LANGUAGE.ASTROLOGY@GMAIL.COM

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) Tie up those loose ends, fast. You’ve been a terrible procrastinator, and now that buttload of unfinished projects, unanswered emails and voicemails, and all the other crap you haven’t gotten around to has become an incredible weight hanging over your head. Luckily, you could potentially take care of every last thing this week, if you’re really disciplined and determined. Wouldn’t that feel great? Of course, you could also just keep waiting. You won’t have to wait long, at least—all that stuff is due to drop like a ton of bricks very, very soon, and then you can spend the next month or two cleaning up the mess.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) Be an elephant. This isn’t a crack about your weight. I’m talking about patience. Elephants’ gestation cycle is 22 months. That’s right, Mama Pachyderm is carrying that fat baby for almost two years.

Sometimes giving birth to something great takes a really long time. What you’ve got inside you now is exactly that: it’s brilliant, life-changing, and wonderful. Accordingly, it can’t be rushed. Trying to force it into the world before it’s ready will just mess it up. This isn’t a mandate to be lazy and unproductive, though. To the contrary; you have a lot to set up to make conditions perfect for your little baby once it arrives. Get to work.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) Bring a cat home, and unless she has reason to think otherwise (like a bigger, meaner cat who already lives there), she’ll soon be convinced that she’s the queen of all she can see. The same can go for Leos.

Whether you’re the bossy, loud type or not, you tend to move in and put yourself in charge in as many ways as possible, given the circumstances. This is no exception. Howeverr, there might be a fearsome kitty lurking beneath the bed, waiting to pounce once you make your move. Fortunately, this fellow can be made your ally. Before you crown yourself king or queen, find the royalty you’d be deposing and make friends.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) You’re incredibly competitive, perhaps more so than almost any other sign; you’re just better at hiding at it than they are. A Leo or an Aries wouldn’t bother pretending they weren’t out to win, and win big, but they’re not as clever as you are. If people don’t know you’re competing, there’s no shame if it doesn’t work out with you on top. As far as they know, you weren’t even trying to be on top. However, sometimes you have to sacrifice that subtlety and just go all out to have any chance at all. That’s the case this week. Get in there with those bloodthirsty fire signs and give them a run for their money. At this point, it’s anybody’s game.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) Because you like everything to be nice and neat and balanced, you have an unconscious tendency to put things (and people) in boxes. These categories help you weigh everything out and keep things tidy. Of course, as you know, life is much messier than this, and everything and everyone has a tendency to spill out of whatever box you put them in. If you insist on trying to bring balance to your life in this way, it’s time to at least come up with a new “filing system,” one that more effectively accounts for the complexity and contradictions inherent in every person instead of expecting them to consistently embody just one thing. Or, you could do away with these definitions altogether. Just a thought.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) The pull to move backwards will wax stronger than ever this week. Nostalgia, fear, and habit will be tugging you to take steps in reverse rather than continuing onward in the direction you’ve been following for months. Resist that urge! This is just the tide pulling out to gather more strength for an even stronger forward push. Don’t go with it, or you’ll be swept out to sea, and lost for a long time. You have a goal in mind, and it’s been more or less the right place for you to go so far. You can always change course once you get there, if you still want to. Just don’t let these negative forces keep you from arriving at your destination in the first place.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) Break down your journey into smaller steps. It may usually be best to keep your eye on your most ambitious destination, but at the moment that’s just likely to overwhelm and dishearten you. Don’t forget where you’re ultimately headed, but set a bunch of short-term goals for yourself, to keep from getting discouraged and giving up. You need that validation and sense of accomplishment to make it for the long haul. Go ahead and celebrate when you reach points A, B, and C, even if they’re still a long way off from point Z. That’s what’ll get you to the finish line.

Try not to have too much contempt for humanity. Yes, by and large people are lazier, dumber, and more weak-willed than you are. Do your best not to despise them. Your hubris is probably your worst quality, and while it’s okay to not admire someone for being criminally indolent and deliberately ignorant, hating them for those things does no one good, least of all you. Dig deep and stir up some compassion and generosity, and exercise them, even for people who may not “deserve” it. They do, and you deserve to be the one who gives it to them. Trust me on this.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) What are your secret habits? For instance, I used to like to close up all the windows and the doors of my apartment (so as not to disturb the neighbors), crank up the music, and sing at the top of my lungs.

Once, I would have been mortified to do this in front of anybody, but at some point I let go of my embarrassment, and trusted people not to hate me when I sang off-key. It feels good to just put it all out there, and find out people aren’t as judgmental as you imagine they’ll be. Open up the windows and air out one of your secret habits this week. You might not get acclaim and applause, but people aren’t about to start throwing rocks and rotten vegetables, either.

Get someone to crack the whip. You desperately want to get this shit done, but you absolutely suck at keeping yourself to the pace that’s required here. That means partially handing over the responsibility for your motivation to someone else, someone you trust, who you can’t ignore, and who will work you hard. Make sure it’s someone you value enough to bite your tongue when you want to snap at them. You don’t want to do that. You may hate them along the way, but you’ll probably thank them when they get you to where you want to go.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) When trying to get in shape and lose weight, most people’s bodies fluctuate, as does their discipline.

Given enough time and enough determination, there will be a steady decline in body fat and increase in muscle tone, but if you look at a daily chart you’ll see lots of spikes and dips. This is normal for any kind of change, including the mental habits you’re trying to put into place. Steady progress is indeed desirable, but don’t be too discouraged or disheartened by tiny setbacks. They’re part of the path. Don’t let them keep you from pursuing it all the way to its conclusion.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) Don’t get too attached to results, in this case. What you’re about to try is hardly a done deal. It’s certainly worth trying, and the worst thing that can happen is it’ll be a flop. Best-case scenario is of course a lot better than that. Give it a chance to happen, without getting too emotionally invested. A “wait-andsee” attitude will take you a long way right now, focusing on success. Epic failure is still quite possible, but as long as you’re not desperately crushed by such an outcome, there’s no reason not to give this a go.

Someone buy Officer Taguma a beer. I’m serious! The guy deserves a medal–or at least a raise–let alone a refreshingly cold, tasty malt beverage.

But then again, I’m not sure that Taguma consumes people food. I have long speculated that he just plugs himself in at night, or possibly sleeps in a solar powered pod.

Why? Because the only way to explain his ability to seemingly be in multiple places at a time would be to assume he’s a super-human or android. Pick one.

All joking aside, I’ll be honest and admit that I’ve got great respect for the man. In fact, I don’t think that there’s another public servant on this island that is as dedicated to doing his or her job as Taguma is.

For example, try parking anywhere in Wailuku with an expired safety sticker and I GUARANTEE that Officer Taguma will do his job and slap a big-fat ticket under your windshield wiper. What? It’s your own damn fault.

And we can all bitch, moan and send text message warnings of Taguma’s current location to our friends, but can we actually accuse him of not doing a good job? I don’t think so. Plus, name another Maui police officer that has his very own bumper sticker.

I see Taguma several times a day because I work in Wailuku and park in the municipal parking lot. Every hour, he drives his Cushman through the lot and chalks tires. Every two hours I stop what I’m doing and move my car so I won’t get a ticket.

Now and then, tires won’t get chalked (I assume that he’s in court those days) and, since parking is a major bitch in Wailuku, I’ve attempted to leave my car for additional time. I’ve gotten two 60-dollar tickets that way.

Part of me gets mad–I’m working for goodness sake!–and the other part of me knows that even though the two-hour parking rule is ridiculous, I broke it and need to own up to the consequences.

Living on Maui, I hear idle chatter about Taguma pretty regularly. It seems that somebody I know is always getting ticketed. Because of this, I’ve heard snarky comments like, “Taguma’s a wife beater” and “Taguma got shot with his own gun,” and to be honest, it kind of gets under my skin.

Yes, in the 80s Taguma was both accused by then-girlfriend of domestic violence–not cool–and (in an unrelated incident) shot in the abdomen while on duty.

And by shot in the abdomen, I mean almost killed. What’s funny about that?

Taguma’s been a cop for a very long time. In fact, he was with the Honolulu Police Department before he joined MPD. And yes, there’s issues that have come up about his time at HPD, but this column isn’t meant to be a profile on Taguma, merely a salute to–whom I believe to be–the hardest working and most controversial police officer in Maui history.

So next time Taguma gets you, remember that you’re the one that’s probably at fault and that the guy’s just doing his job. He didn’t make the stupid two hour parking rule, start the Click-It-Or-Ticket campaign (my daughter innocently calls it “Lick-It-Or-Ticket,” which is a whole ‘nother story completely), decide on the speed limit, or tell you that it was a good idea to drink that 40 before heading home.

We’re the lawbreakers.

Taguma? He’s just one hell of a dedicated cop.
