LETTERSTOTHEEDITOR LC BLUES It was interesting to read your LC Watch in the Oct. 13, 2005 issue of Maui Time. You discuss how the Sports Page Bar was prosecuted by Maui County Liquor Control for over-service because a customer was arrested for DUI later that night. This particular LC rule is actually unlawful, violates its own statutes, is not a rule in any other Hawai’i county and is not enforceable on the mainland. The reason why it continues to get prosecuted on Maui is because of the LC’s long-time intimidation factor with bar owners and the “good ol’ boy” network that exists on Maui. First off, the LC rule says that you cannot serve a customer who appears to be “under the influence of alcohol” or is “obviously intoxicated.” This is vague and is up to the discretion of the server or bartender at the time of service. But a person who is arrested for a DUI must have a blood alcohol level of .08 or above. There is no connection here. Every person who drinks has a different tolerance level depending, among other things, on size, how much they have eaten and their tolerance to alcohol. Since the rule does not require a bar owner to administer a blood alcohol test before serving someone, there is no feasible way that a server or bartender can say for sure that a customer is not over the .08 DUI limit (or if the drink that you just served him put him over the limit). Every other liquor jurisdiction in the country requires that the LC officer witness service to an obviously intoxicated customer to cite for over-service, not just assume that the customer was obviously intoxicated when they were served because they got a DUI later in the night. The second issue is that everyone who drinks to the level of being obviously intoxicated gets to a point where one minute they appear to be okay and the next minute they can appear to be obviously intoxicated. There is no way for the server or bartender to know which drink will make a person obviously intoxicated. The Maui LC makes no distinction between this and chooses to ignore its own rule. The third issue is that if a bar or restaurant does serve someone and they become intoxicated, then the Maui LC rule is that the person must be cut off and escorted off the premises. But if the bar complies with this rule and the person gets in their car and gets a DUI, then the bar gets cited. So basically, the bar got cited for complying with the LC rule. Another bogus part of this rule was stated by you in your column. This customer was cited 55 minutes after he had left the bar. Alcohol has a delayed effect on people. You can drink four shots in a half hour and not appear to be obviously intoxicated until 30 minutes later. The effect doesn’t hit you immediately. Plus, how many drinks did this customer have after he left

the bar? If he was drinking in his car would he tell the officer” If he was cut off by the bar, would he be trying to get back at the bar? And then after the police officer takes the statement from the driver, they do not even have to show up and testify at the LC hearing where they could be cross-examined. They just use his statement as evidence. So you can see, even if you follow the LC’s rules, you can still get cited for over-service. Because of their ongoing intimidation factor and the “good ‘ol boy” network, they have gotten away with this for decades. [Defense] attorneys don’t fight it too hard because pleading these cases is good work for them and they like to maintain their relationships at the LC. The kangaroo court that is the Adjudication Board is a rubber stamp of the LC. It [is] much easier to plead no contest, pay your fine and avoid getting hassled by the LC. But things changed a couple years ago, when the county instituted the four strikes law. If you are convicted of four offenses in a five-year period, you will lose your liquor license. This seems like a lot of offenses, but this is something that the bar owners simply cannot control (unlike service to a minor or other rules). But the LC likes bogus rules like these so that they can keep the intimidation factor high. With the new four strikes law, bar and restaurant owners are now challenging the legality of the rule. Recently, one case was thrown out by a circuit court judge who said that the LC officer had to actually witness the over-service and that they couldn’t just assume that the person was obviously intoxicated at the time of service. But do you think that stopped the LC? No, they continue to prosecute these bogus cases. But do they prosecute them the same with all licensees? When was the last time you heard of a resort getting cited for over-service? I am sure that they all serve a lot of alcohol. I am sure that some customer at some time must have gotten a DUI. But I have never heard of them getting cited. What would be the effect if a major resort hotel lost its

liquor license because of this bogus law? The reality is that they would fight it and bring in mainland attorneys to make fools out of the Maui LC and the law would likely be taken off the books (and the LC loses one of its big hammers for smaller bars and restaurant owners). I want to keep drunks off the road as much as anyone. And 99 percent of all bar/restaurant owners on Maui are diligent in training their staff not to serve obviously intoxicated customers. But the LC’s goal is not to keep drunks off the road, because this rule does not do that. Their goal is to intimidate bar and restaurant owners into an impossible situation of compliance. -A Maui County liquor licensee who asks to remain nameless The Editor responds: To be fair, the LC did prosecute the Hyatt Regency Maui in November, 2004 for serving minors, but that arguably because an 18-year-old girl died as a result. In any case, on Nov. 3, the LC’s Board of Adjudication is scheduled to hear an overserving case involving Koho Grill and Bar in Kahului. The establishment is, as usual in these cases, pleading no contest.

You don’t know how to clean—in fact, the one place I saw you clean was the bathroom... and you cleaned it with laundry detergent. You’re too cheap to buy anything, so you steal toilet paper and used garbage bags from the restaurant you work at. If a woman talks to you for more than an hour, you consider her your girlfriend and you claim to have sex with young girls all the time! But the thing about you that makes me laugh the most is that you’re a “vegan.” Ha! You’re a “vegan” that hates animals—especially dogs—and uses products like shaving cream that are tested on animals. I know from experience that you are not able to live with roommates. My condolences to the person who moved into your crooked little world.

Bertram and one of the “greenways” Traveling Maui’s badly designed roads in anything other than a car can be a lifethreatening excursion. Steel hulks speed by you as you travel in narrow or non-existent bike/pedestrian lanes. Cyclists and pedestrians often become the unintentional targets of careless drivers. If you’re lucky to live after a 3,000-pound machine slams into you, dragging and ripping your flesh along the filthy asphalt—as one did to me recently—you’ll wonder if you’ll ever ride or walk the roads again. This is especially true in South Maui. Kihei is an example of how the auto-centric land-use laws and policies of Maui’s Public Works department require residents to be defensive and vigilant as they dodge cars. “It’s been a struggle to get Public Works to prioritize the needs of Maui’s pedestrians over the need to just built more roads for cars,” said Greenway Maui’s President Joe Bertram III. For the past 21 years, South Maui residents have asked Public Works to make Kihei a pedestrian-oriented community. For the past 20 years, Kihei residents’ requests have fallen on deaf ears. The Kihei community has wanted a continuous pedestrian-safe greenway since adopting the Kihei-Makena

Community plan in the 1980s. In 1998 the community gathered at the Kihei 2000 workshop to ask again for a greenway. Residents spent hours mapping the safe pedestrian corridor for South Maui residents and visitors. This community effort resulted in an amendment to the Kihei-Makena Community Plan to include the greenway. The Maui County Council passed the greenway amendment and sent the map to the reviewing agencies for approval. But when the map returned from Public Works, a critical section of the greenway from Maui Hill to Kilohana was gone. County engineers said they pulled that section because of language in the Kihei-Makena Community Plan. According to the plan, they had to “Preserve and enhance the identity of Kihei’s neighborhoods by designing the North-South collector road in discontinuous segments.” But auto-focused Public Works also ignored the next sentence, which asked them to “Work with landowners, neighborhoods, and community groups to plan and implement an adjacent but separate trail/greenway/bikepath to provide non-motorized public access along the full length of the road reserve.” While a community plan has the force and effect of law, it’s forgotten and ignored unless residents are vocal in supporting it. This is the case in Kihei where developers are carving in

and cutting out this continuous greenway. Today, homes and condos are quietly rising on critical pieces of the proposed trial. Once these sections are covered over, the opportunity to create this corridor will be lost and Kihei residents can kiss their greenway goodbye. “We are about to lose critical connections of the Southern portion of the greenway from Kanani Street to Walaka and Ponana Street,” said Bertram. He added that he’s asked for help from Mayor Alan Arakawa. According to one of the mayor’s aides, there still may be hope. “The portion of the right-of-way between Auhana and Kilohana had almost slipped away from us,” said Dave DeLeon, Arakawa’s executive assistant. “Thanks to the diligence of Joe Bertram, the Arakawa Administration is focused on saving it.” DeLeon said there are five different problem areas from Auhana and Kilohana. He says they will require spending serious money to buy out at least one house and possibly condemning an easement across a condo parking lot. “If this is going to happen, the community of Kihei is going to have to step forward and let itself be heard, loud and clear, that this is a priority for you and that you will not take ‘no’ for an answer,” DeLeon said. “It’s going to take that type of dedicated advocacy to save the remaining right-of-way. It is going to be up to Kihei.” “Sending letters of support to the mayor is

Cunning Lingle What Governor Linda Lingle said about state Representative Galen Fox (R, 23rd District) in a June 1, 2005 Honolulu Advertiser story: “[He’s] a thoughtful and strategic leader.”

What she didn’t say: According to the Nov. 2, 2005 Advertiser, Lingle knew as far back as December, 2004, that Fox had been arrested for allegedly fondling a 27-year-old woman on a flight to Los Angeles. When she called her Republican ally Fox “thoughtful” she also knew that he’d been indicted in a California court for “abusive sexual conduct” (he grabbed the crotch of the woman who was sleeping in the seat next to him, which is a misdemeanor). Yet before and during Fox’s one-day trial, Lingle kept her mouth shut, choosing only to say good things about Fox in public. Until, that is, his Oct. 20, 2005 conviction and subsequent resignation from the state House, but by then it was impossible to keep the story quiet. -ANTHONY PIGNATARO

WEDNESDAY, OCT. 26 In the spirit of the holidays which are still many weeks away but still fair game because the big corporate stores want people to buy, Buy, BUY!!!, I’m going to talk about Wal-Mart today. Specifically, on a story in today’s New York Times concerning a company memo the paper obtained on the high cost of medical benefits. That memo shows the complete, total and utter disdain the Wal-Mart corporation feels towards its drones—sorry, “Associates.” Were android workers ready and available for sale, let no one doubt Wal-Mart would immediately fire every oxygen-breather it employs. The point of the memo—which was secret until the Times came a-calling: Wal-Mart is paying too much health care money to its employees. “We also have one of the highest percentages of full-time Associates in the retail industry, even though full-time Associates are more expensive per labor hour (in terms of both benefits and wages),” stated the memo. That statement isn’t built on pride either—Wal-Mart is bitching and moaning that people would chose to work at its retail stores five, six and even seven years rather than bail after just one year, which would save the company soooooo much money every year since they wouldn’t have to shell out so much cash in benefits. Booo frickin’ hoo. The memo is so crass that one of the “bold steps” its authors propose is to give “Associates” private insurance access after just 30 days of employment. Sounds great, unless such a move doesn’t immediately translate into good public relations, in which case WalMart will just forget about it. “Considering the steep cost… the team is rigorously test-

ing these ideas with the public and policymakers to determine whether these investments would effectively ‘move the needle’ on WalMart’s public reputation,” the memo explained.

THURSDAY, OCT. 27 By 10 a.m. this morning, an estimated 500 people were standing in line at the Maui Arts & Cultural Center box office for Eagles tickets. I don’t know about you, but stuff like this freaks me out.

FRIDAY, OCT. 28 You know Maui’s really hit the big time when the U.S. Attorney’s office announces that an alleged big-time spy has just been arrested at his Haiku home. Haiku—you know, the town that sports the Pauwela Cannery, the Hemp Stock and that building on the cliff with the big happy face painted on it. Now we have to add Noshir S. Gowadia, former Northrop Grumman employee, self-styled “father” of the B-2 stealth bomber and, until a couple days ago, upstanding Haiku resident, who happened to live in a million-dollar home shaped like the bat-wing bomber. But unlike other spymasters like Aldrich Ames and Robert Hansen, Gowadia—according to the criminal complaint posted on the Honolulu Advertiser website today—didn’t exactly peddle reams of classified schematics and files to KGB agents in back alleys. Instead, he “marketed” his specialist knowledge of the B-2’s jet engine technology to eight countries that have yet to be named. He also on multiple occasions allegedly “taught a course” to foreign nationals that involved “classified information” he obtained while working for Northrop. But funniest of all is today’s Honolulu StarBulletin revelation that until the FBI busted Gowadia—who admitted to investigators that

OLD LAHAINA

Apparently feeling that I wasn’t scared enough on this Halloween, Haiku resident Thomas Holzer emailed me a copy of yesterday’s Daily Press (Hampton Roads, Virginia) story on how the U.S. Army dumped tons and tons of chemical weapons into the water off 11 states, including Hawai’i, and has since lost track of where they are or what’s happening to them. “In 1944, at least 16,000 mustard [gas]filled 100-pound bombs were unloaded off Hawaii in deep water only five miles from shore,” reported John M. R. Bull. According to Bull’s story, in 1976 a Hawaiian fisherman was burned when he accidentally brought up one of those bombs. Scared yet? How about the fact that Bull also reported that the army has never studied the effects of these dumpings—64 million tons of nerve and mustard gas bombs in total—or really knows where they are. “Over the decades, the Army has conducted environmental tests on only four of its dumpsites—and none since 1975,” wrote Bull. Oh, and scientists quoted in the story added that there’s no way to know how salt water corrosion is acting on the shells, which date to World War I, and said it’s easily conceivable that gas leakage on the ocean floor could occur for the next century. Now that’s scary.

Sevick says that she suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder, including panic attacks, and that Lilly “soothes” her, but the school said it was concerned with other students’ safety.

he major causes of death in Western countries are cardiovascular diseases and cancers. Abundant medical research liking these diseases to dietary and lifestyle factors, guidelines advanced by the American Heart Association, the American Cancer Society, and the Surgeon General, among others, counsel Americans to sharply reduce animal foods consumed and replace them with fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. In effect, they’re recommending a more plant-based diet, which begs the question: Are humans designed to eat meat?

Adam Taylor, a quite-proper executive at Strathclyde University in Glasgow, Scotland, was charged with illegally (and apparently motivelessly) firing several shots from an air rifle in a city park, but swears that he has no recollection of the incident and is totally baffled by the apparently accurate witness-reports of his guilt. Said his lawyer in September, “There is

absolutely no reason on Earth why a 38-yearold man with his background would suddenly take an air rifle and fire it in the park…”

NIPPLE HAIR NEWS Tyler Ing, 20, told the London (Ontario) Free Press in October that his parents “looked at me real weird for a few minutes” but that now “they’re proud. My mom shows the [Guinness Book of World Records] to all her friends.” The entry that she shows is her son’s honor, recently achieved, for having the world’s longest nipple hair, certified at 8.89 cm (3.5 inches).

CLICHES COME TO LIFE In a September rape trial in New York City, witness Roberto Suarez testified that he saw two men in the room with a waitress just before she told him that she had been raped, and then when asked by the prosecutor to identify the two men, Suarez looked past the defendants and pointed to, respectively, Juror No. 8 and Alternate Juror No. 3. The New York Daily News reported that some jurors laughed so hard that they cried.

WELL, OF COURSE! Transsexual convicted prostitute Monica Renee Champion, 37, was finally picked up by police in Richmond, Va., in August; there had been arrest warrants for indecent exposure against her in the city’s South Side as a male and in the city’s North Side as a female. (2) Tyrone D. McMillian, 33, who was arrested after a high-speed chase through three New York towns in August, told the arresting officers: “I’ve been playing a lot of Grand Theft Auto and NASCAR on PlayStation. I thought I could get away.”

Brisbane), who was a nominee at an awards banquet for Excellence in Business (which was being held at a local hotel), was arrested for soliciting clients during the event. And London’s Sunday Telegraph reported in July that, because of the shortage of military supplies caused by troops deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq, British Army soldiers on training exercises were ordered simply to shout “bang bang” rather than fire practice rounds.

THE POOR DEARS In August, convicted child murderer Mark Allen Harris was awarded $50,000 by a jury in his lawsuit against Kanawha County, W.Va., jail officials after he fell out of the back of a van transporting prisoners, breaking bones in his face and knocking out some teeth. Also in August, in Albuquerque, N.M., a filthy and disheveled John Hyde, 48, being arraigned in the murders of four people, including two policemen, complained to the judge about police behavior, “Your honor... I have been put in a red jump suit like Elvis Presley... My hair looks ridiculous... I was not allowed to groom myself.”

PEOPLE DIFFERENT FROM US In July, police in Lawrence, Kan., gave Ezekiel Rubottom’s foot back to him, convinced that, contrary to a neighbor’s inquiry, it wasn’t evidence of a crime. Rubottom, 21, had tried to explain that he’d had his clubbed left foot amputated and merely wanted to keep it as a memento in a bucket of formaldehyde on his front porch. A spokesman for Lawrence Memorial Hospital told the Journal-World newspaper that there have been “women that want their uterus... people take [home] tonsils... they take [home] appendixes.” Rubottom added a porcelain horse and a can of beer to his bucket to make it what he called “a collage of myself.”

LEAST COMPETENT CRIMINALS In September, Anthony R. Martin, 52, of Belleville, Ill., became the latest person to call the police and complain that someone had stolen his illegal drugs. But there was more: Martin told the investigating officer that a hostile neighbor had taken his marijuana plants, but when he showed the officer the room where he usually kept them, the plants were actually still there. Martin then said whoever took them must have returned them. He was charged with growing marijuana. He also admitted that he had been drinking that night.

HEY, I READ THAT ARTICLE! Wailing loudly and apparently incredulous at being ordered to jail, a scantily dressed Natalia McLennan, 25, was taken directly to a lockup from a New York City courtroom in September, after being charged with prostitution; McLennan had recently posed for the cover of New York magazine, proclaiming herself to be the city’s top-grossing “escort” and acknowledging that she provided sex for clients.

Cracks in the Constitution The phone rings with a blocked caller ID but I know who it is. My friend the film critic has just put down the same article I’ve just finished reading, a front-page blockbuster in the New York Daily News. It says that George W. Bush knew about Karl Rove’s scheme to blow CIA agent Valerie Plame’s cover for years, that he was Rove’s partner in treason from the start, that his claims of ignorance were lies. The News article is anonymously sourced but we know it’s 100 percent true because the White House won’t deny that Bush is a traitor. “So they’ll impeach him now, right?” My friend asked the same thing in 2001 when recounts proved Bush lost Florida, when the 9/11 fetishist admitted that he’d never even tried to catch Osama, when WMDs failed to turn up in Iraq, and when his malignant neglect killed hundreds of Americans in post-Katrina New Orleans. “This means impeachment. Right?” Wrong. Any one of Bush’s crimes towers over the combined wickedness of Nixon and Clinton. And there are so many to choose from! How many times has Bush “made false or misleading public statements for the purpose of deceiving the people of the United States” (a key count in the Nixon impeachment)? Stop laughing. Unfortunately for my friend and the United States, impeachment is a political process, not a legal one. Nixon and Clinton faced Congresses controlled by the other party. Because Bush belongs to the same party as the majorities in the House and Senate, nothing he does can get him impeached. Our failed Constitutional system means we’re stuck with this disastrous demagogue for three more years. Gloat now, Republican readers, but party loyalty’s stranglehold on impeachment can easily take the form of a complacent Democratic Congress overlooking the misdeeds of a batty Democratic president. Any safe can be cracked; every system of safeguards breaks down eventually. We can’t get rid of Bush because the Founding Fathers, who were smart enough to think of just about everything, dropped the ball when they drafted the article that provides

for presidential impeachment. Because there were no national political parties back in 1787, their otherwise ingenious system of checks and balances failed to account for the possibility that a Congress might choose to overlook a president’s crimes. Small parties were active on the state and local level during the late 18th century, but James Madison, George Washington and most of the other Founders despised these organizations as harbingers of petty “factionalism” that ought to be banned or severely limited. Washington used the occasion of his 1796 farewell address to decry “the baneful effects of the spirit of party generally. It serves always to distract the public councils and enfeeble the public administration,” he warned. “It agitates the community with ill-founded jealousies and false alarms; kindles the animosity of one part against another; foments occasionally riot and insurrect… in governments purely elective, it is a spirit not to be encouraged.” Voting blocs were the enemy of good government. In the new republic, Madison wrote in his seminal Federalist No. 10, political arguments should be considered on their own merits. Since candidates for and holders of political

office would be judged solely as individuals, Congressmen would focus on the greater good rather than political alliances when weighing whether to impeach a president. Even when parties began to emerge as a national force in 1800, few politicians would have argued that a Democratic-Republican president should be safe from impeachment unless the Federalist Party happened to control Congress. Another Constitutional breakdown, concerning the separation of powers, occurred in June 2004. More than a year after the Supreme Court decided in Rasul v. Bush that the nearly 600 Muslim men and young boys being held incommunicado at Guantánamo Bay were entitled to have their cases heard by U.S. courts, they remain in cold storage—no lawyers, no court dates. The Bush Administration simply ignored the ruling. “[Bush’s] Justice Department,” Dahlia Lithwick wrote in Slate, “sees [the ruling] through the sophisticated legal prism known as the Toddler Worldview: Anything one doesn’t wish to accept simply isn’t true.” Because the Founding Fathers never anticipated the possibility that the nation’s chief executive would treat its final judgments with the respect due an out-of-state parking ticket issued to a rental car, the Supreme Court has been rendered as toothless as a gummy bear. The more you look, the more you’ll find that our Constitution has been subverted to the point of virtual irrelevance. The legislative branch has abdicated its exclusive right to declare war to the president, who was appointed by a federal court that undermined the states’ constitutional right to manage and settle election disputes. Individuals’ protection against unreasonable searches have been trashed, habeas corpus is a joke, and double jeopardy has become routine as those exonerated by criminal court face second trials in civil court. Our system of checks and balances has collapsed, the victim of a citizenry more interested in entertaining distraction than eternal vigilance. Where evil men rule, law cannot protect those who sleep.

LC Watch Rules of Evidence

Last month the Maui County Liquor Control Board of Adjudication found that Club Starlite in Wailuku was guilty of three counts related to LC investigators finding manager Hannah Bridgette Yun drunk and asleep on a couch in her own establishment. That the board was able to make such a determination is testament to its incredibly lenient definition of the word “evidence.” Before I get to the inherent weaknesses in the prosecution’s case—where the burden of proof lies in any American courtroom—I have to point out that Yun put on a cartoonishly bad performance on the stand. Walking to and from the witness lectern in high heels with absolutely no problem, Yun testified repeatedly that the reason LC investigators found her stumbling the five or so feet from the Club Starlite couch to the restroom was because she can’t keep her balance when wearing heels. She also said she only consumed one whiskey and water on the night in question, and had no explanation as to why her own bartender told investigators she served Yun four such drinks. All that came out in cross examination, meaning Yun could have chosen not to testify on her own behalf. Considering the weaknesses in Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Angela Hedge’s case, that should have been her strategy. Hedge had just one witness: LC investigator Pedro Gapero. He testified that Yun appeared to be drunk—bloodshot eyes, slurred speech, difficulty walking—but never took any kind of blood alcohol test. Though Gapero testified that he’d been in Club Starlite many times, he had difficulty answering defense attorney Lawrence Ing’s questions about the placement of the booths and karaoke machine. When Hedge was done, Ing asked the board to dismiss the case on the grounds that Hedge simply hadn’t proved her case. Board member Lance Collins agreed, but was outvoted by the rest of the board, which eventually found Starlite guilty and fined them $3,000.

Serving Monkeys

What it’s like to volunteer at the Pacific Primate Sanctuary I’m standing in a long, well-lit hall, flanked by rows of roomy enclosures. A cool breeze can be felt through the open sides of the outer sections… and the chirps, squeaks, whines and cries of more than 40 New World monkeys can be heard. This is the Pacific Primate Sanctuary— or, as their official website states, “A nonprofit refuge providing a safe haven for threatened, endangered, and distressed monkeys.” Located in the remote, forested acres of Haiku, the Sanctuary has been housing such creatures in their current enclosures since 2000. Here, many abused “New World” monkeys—species inhabiting Central and South America— have been given a second chance at life. For many of them, it’s a chance that they

would never otherwise have had. I volunteered here on the weekends, so I know the place pretty well. Walking down the hallway, I pause by the second enclosure on the left. It’s home to four White Tufted-Ear Marmosets: Stevie Wonder, his mate Mariette and their two twins. Stevie peers around with foggy blue eyes and moves slowly and deliberately; he is blind. If not for his home at the Sanctuary, it’s conceivable he would have little or no chance at survival. But here he has been gently introduced to his outside enclosure, where he can experience the fresh air and vegetation that would normally be available to him in a natural environment. Inside, he can traverse branches and ropes. An endangered Cotton-Top Tamarin named

Sparky, who is in a single-level portable enclosure placed outside some fellow Cotton-Tops, catches my attention further on. Sparky is partially paralyzed from the waist down, so it’s pretty much impossible for him to move about quickly or leap from branch to branch as so many others of his species do. But here, he is simply lovingly cared for by volunteers who try to bring him the best, most comfortable existence possible. Sparky’s enclosure is lined with soft blankets and stuffed animals, which he loves to hide beneath with only his tail or eyes peeking out. Most of the monkeys are strong and healthy, making bounding leaps across their enclosures. Even those who are not in the best of condition—missing fingers, toes, or tails—are hardly discernible from the rest. Several enclo-

They are in a patch of dense forest, in two separate enclosures with concrete floors and tin roofs. I try to be as cautious and gentle as possible; when content, these black-and-cream creatures murmur and chirp softly, taking the offered food from your palm. But when aggravated they can grab your wrist and pull quite hard, using their hands, feet, or tails. They will also bark at one another, scream, bang on their tin roofs as if they were cymbals and occasionally throw a peanut or two. An encounter like this reminds me of why I am here—to serve them. Not for myself, not for anybody else, but solely for the benefit of the monkeys. When they do not treat me “nicely,” I cannot simply walk away—rather, I keep trying, keep working to gain their trust. They are intelligent. They can sense unease or tension in the air, as if it were a smell. This serves to give me a true sense of humility and respect for these creatures. Back up the meandering road toward the main Sanctuary building, I notice a sort of empty railroad-track-like foundation is being laid for a new pathway. I continue along, following the trail alongside the 10 enclosures Here the concrete foundations have recently been poured for new Capuchin enclosures. The enclosures are out in the open air with a full view of the lush tropical forests around them. This new location already provides a great improvement from the muddy, mosquitoinfested jungle in which they currently reside. The new enclosure also allows for a closer interrelationship between the two groups, facilitating a back-and-forth journey between the two main enclosures. The new enclosures will provide vegetation, successfully emulating their natural environment and giving them a closer experience to a typical life in the wild. Back inside the Sanctuary, I look over the volunteer schedule for the rest of the month. There is a shift that needs covering every morning and every afternoon, a total of about 60 shifts per month. Dedicated volunteers cover these shifts. They’re drawn and held here for the same reason as me: a concern for the creatures’ plight, a determined willingness to help combat their mistreatment and a desire to give back to them something of what we humans have taken. Of course, we also just love the monkeys. MTW

A Swell Day

What it’s like being Archie Kalepa

By Molly Rettig

AEDER PHOTO: ERIK

We hadn’t spent too much time sipping our chai teas and making small talk at the Queen Ka’ahumanu Center Starbucks when Archie Kalepa got down to business. “What are your goals here?” he asked. “Because I don’t want this story to just be about me.” I stared at him a moment. About five-foot-seven and possessing the build you’d expect from a world famous big wave surfer, Kalepa is also the chief county lifeguard. He wanted me to focus my story on ocean safety and the rest of Maui’s lifeguards, while I… well, I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do. The day Kalepa and I met was also the first high swell of the winter surf season. As a waterman, this had a big impact on Kalepa’s day. Kalepa is not only a celebrity surfer, but also a leading activist in ocean safety. That he appeared on Baywatch playing himself is only a frilly detail. “It’s not easy to be me,” he told me at one point, which was kind of the whole reason I was having tea with him. Juggling his job, big-wave surfing, a family and his ubiquity in the community creates a sea of responsibility for any guy. Between his sport and his profession, he said he sees himself as a lifeguard first, so that’s where we began. Located in Kahului’s community center, his office is a small building buzzing with secretaries, lifeguards coming and going and the constant chatter of radios and telephones. Walking through, I felt the place pulsate with the goings-on of Maui’s entire coastline. Kalepa spends his workdays at the desk, which he admitted can seem confining after so many years on duty at the beach. Many times during our talk he had to stop and answer his phone, pick up the radio or just talk with one of the other lifeguards shuffling about. In the past few decades on Maui, lifeguarding has evolved from its initial laid-back “beachboy” style to a serious profession. “Every day is different,” one lifeguard told me. “We react to whatever happens.” These guys are working in a dynamic environment where they are expected to respond quickly and effectively to any potential situation. “I come from old-school, and broke every rule in the book back in the day,” Kalepa said. It’s been 25 years since Archie first became a lifeguard, embracing its glamorous image and killer opportunity to check out babes on the beach. Today agencies from around the world ask him for ocean safety education. The U.S. military wants his advice on jet-ski training. Even countries like Taiwan, China and Japan have asked him to help launch rescue-ski programs. Exploding Maui tourism meant expanding ocean safety. Kalepa lobbied for greater funding, better equipment and upgrades in career opportunities available for lifeguards. He led a movement that made Maui the first and only water-state to deploy an ocean safety team connected to the 911 emergency response system. His push for putting lifeguards on jet-skis met county resistance until Hurricane Iniki in 1992, when he managed to save a bunch of sea-stranded people while perched atop a jet-ski. “People see the beauty in the ocean and not always the beast,” said Kalepa. “For natives the water may be second nature but there are many visitors to Maui that don’t see past the fun in the water, to its life and death potential.” Throughout our day, Kalepa spoke passionately about the obstacles of the ocean-safety program here, its need for structural development, a better career ladder for lifeguards, broader budgeting and getting more public support. He said lifeguards average 5,000 public contacts a month and 300 rescues a year. He said the ratio reflects the county’s efforts to be more preventative than reactionary. When I asked Kalepa to define a big wave, he said simply, “It’s a wave that scares me.” Tow-in surfing arrived with the tide of big-wave surfing. It allows surfers to catch waves that are too far out or dangerous to merely paddle into. Tow-in surfing is one of the few, true extreme sports—it requires extreme conditions and extreme athletes. It’s also extremely expensive. They say in tow-in surfing that you’re only as capable as your partner. Kalepa spoke admiringly of his partner of three years, Buzzy Kerbox. Both riders for Honolua Surf Company, Kalepa and Kerbox have a symbiotic relationship when on board and jet-ski, helping each other confront bigger waves and feel safe doing so, providing emotional support and pooling their wave knowledge. “It’s a short window of time and you have to be incredibly focused,” Kalepa said. “Because it’s life and death out there.” It’s also, he said, a supreme adrenaline rush.

NOVEMBER 3, 2005

COVER STORY

“Big wave riding is the best damn drug out there,” he said. Located on Maui’s north shore, Jaws (known in Hawaiian as Peahi) boasts some of the biggest waves in the world. It typically breaks during the winter’s north swells. Having ridden Jaws countless times, Kalepa’s made his mark. In 2004 he was a finalist for the biggest barrel and biggest wave at the Jaws competition. This year, at the age of 43, he was up for the biggest barrel ever ridden. In 1999, Kalepa told Maui Time about one especially big wave he encounted at Jaws. “I was riding this wave at Peahi, a perfect wave, so smooth, and I went up to the top, came back down, went back up and the helicopter was right in front of me,” he said. “I’m looking through this helicopter, looking at the pilot and the cameraman, looking down at them. I could feel the wind from the helicopter hitting the water and lifting my board. That was a heavy experience.” Kalepa was born on Maui’s Westside, grew up on Oahu’s North Shore, then returned to Maui to complete high school at Lahainaluna. He’s lived here ever since. Surrounded by water, he’s gotten creative on it. He was the first person to paddle surf—standing on the board, paddle in hand—from Molokai to Oahu in a scorching time of six hours and 40 minutes. With no team to speak of beyond an entourage of boats and no medal or finish line, Kalepa had to motivate himself. Stopping to stretch when his legs would cramp up, his resolve to finish the voyage propelled him on. When I asked what possessed him to do this, he said simply, “It had never been done before.” After spending a couple hours at the lifeguard offices, I met Kalepa at his house in Lahaina. His living room is like a water museum, exhibiting paintings and photos of nearly every ocean sport. There are also photos of his wife Alicia, a former Miss Maui. Mixed in there was a photograph of Kalepa riding a 60-plus-foot wave at Jaws. Another captured him on the wave that won him third place in the world tandem-surfing championships in Australia. It showed a younger, studly-looking Kalepa riding a wave with a bikini-clad woman, striking a pose with his hands stretched overhead. There was also a painting of the Hokule’a, a traditional Hawaiian canoe Kalepa and crew sailed to Tahiti. Kalepa doesn’t limit himself to water sports, and enjoys dirt bike racing. He’s raced in the New Mexican desert and recently finished seventh in a 100-mile contest on the Big Island. He also enjoys 10 mile runs in the mountains “to stay in shape.” When I asked what type of board he used at Jaws, he showed me his stash, one of which

was a small camouflaged fish board weighted with gold ball bearings. Without the added weight, a fish this size would never sustain the muscle of a 70-foot wave. As I gazed at the snowboard-like bindings, he told me that when you’re tearing down a wave at speeds of 35 miles per hour, foot-straps are mandatory. While we waited for his wife to get home, Kalepa popped a couple DVDs of some of his big-wave surf trips into the player the way my brother slides a videogame into his X-Box. Watching the movies, it became clear that these guys are charging the forces of nature and putting themselves at its mercy without thinking twice. It’s just what they do. I saw guys like Kerbox and Laird Hamilton out on the boat, having a grand time, totally in their element. The guys were ripping up the screen with the occasional heart-stopping wipeout where a surfer would disappear into the exploding whitewater caused by a crashing 60-foot wave. They took everything in stride, showing concern when someone bit it and sheer excitement and appreciation when someone caught a sweet ride. The camaraderie and love for the sport was manifest in the guys’ flair on the waves and ongoing playfulness with each other. That afternoon we loaded some long boards into Kalepa’s big gold truck and headed north to Honolua Bay, to see just how big the waves were. Honolua is picturesque even on a flat day. But today it was truly a spectacle, with a virtual city of surfers spread across the bay, point and

cave breaks. The ocean heaved forth one beautiful wave after another, peeling to the right crisply and patiently, setting many thrilled surfers up for barrels they’d never forget. My original plan was to go surfing with him, but the waves were a bit out of my league. So I stayed on the shore and watched from the cliff. “I usually skip the first day of the season,” said Kalepa before he headed down to the water. “Everyone’s aggressive and it creates a lot of tension in the water.” He was right. People were getting feisty, greedy for waves and snapping at even the hint someone would drop in on them. But Kalepa, by virtue of his mere presence paddle-surfing the big waves, didn’t get caught up in the melee. It turned out that this day was just the second time anyone had dared paddle-surf the bay. Of course, Kalepa was also the first guy who paddle-surfed it. He deftly maneuvered his long board to the outside break, his balance imperturbable over incoming waves. “What is that guy doing?” one girl exclaimed, never having seen a paddle-surfer before. When it became clear he knew what he was doing, she said, “He looks like a ferryman, but one that can rip.” The heightened swell brought the rippers out of the woodwork and it was a real pleasure to watch. But Kalepa seemed magnetic above it all with his ability to read the waves, pick a beauty, then catch it with seeming ease and finesse. His grace on a wave and oneness with the water gave the suspicion that he was born to surf. His style on such a big board was not to carve up the face of the wave, but to move in rhythm with it, slicing his paddle across the front. The visual effect was that he had somehow tamed the water, an illusion only an extraordinary waterman can create. When his ride had fizzled, he’d paddle back out and repeat the process. By now a crowd had formed around me. All eyes were on Kalepa. After riding his fill of pedigree waves, Archie paddled back to the shore and picked me up. Driving back to Lahaina Town under the dusky sky, I was amazed at how much Kalepa felt like one of those cool, down-to-earth guys Maui seems to breed. Surfing defines him—and has chiseled him into history—but is only one layer of his identity. He is proud of his Hawaiian roots, feels blessed to have a wife who keeps him grounded and inspired and works very hard running a division of lifeguards who try to keep us safe in the ocean. For me, the excitement of the day was off the charts. Yet for Kalepa, the sky was darkening on just another average day of work and play. As a lifelong team player and sports nut, I often mistakenly assume athletes can walk on water. After a day of shadowing, chatting and cruising with Kalepa, I was surprised at what a normal and accessible person he is. Though on a surfboard he does seem to walk on water. MTW

Now when I say “colorful” I’m referring to both the decorations and patrons. The walls to the right and left of the entrance are lined with booths accented by a variety of tropical colors. The walls above them are painted either salmon pink or an oceanic blue. There are about 10 tables between the booths. As I looked around I saw many occupied by golden brown bodies darkened by years in the Hawaiian sun. Interspersed between all these Maui babes were the classic red lobsters—those who, like myself, would soon be headed to the airport. In between the brown and red bodies was a mix of doughboys who had probably just made their way from the airport, also like me. After we were seated, my uncle quickly glanced over the menu and seemed to have no trouble deciding what to have. I, on the other hand, was overwhelmed. My

options ranged from meat and fish sandwiches priced between $6.75 and $9.75, to plate lunches varying from simple Chicken Teriyaki to belly-busters like the Hawaiian that boast a combo of Pork Lau Lau, Kalua Pork, Chicken Long Rice and Lomi Salmon for $11.75. When the waitress returned, my uncle ordered Da Kitchen Burger, an enormous hunk of beef served on a toasted onion bun with fixings and a heaping portion of potatomacaroni salad on the side all for $6.75. As for me, too intimidated by the plate lunches, I settled on a $6.75 bowl of Da Saimin. The food was great for three important reasons, which I can easily explain. First, despite the fact that the place was really crowded, we only had to wait a few minutes for our food. Second, while the food was prepared quickly, presentation was not sacrificed at the expense of time. Third, and most important, while I had heard Da Kitchen had good grinds, my expectations were more than surpassed. My delectable bowl of noodles came decorated with fresh veggies, teriyaki beef and was swimming in tasty hot broth. I even got a side of hot mustard, which satisfied my never-ending craving for something HOT. I could tell my uncle was equally pleased by the ferocious attack he mounted against his colossal burger. While neither of us was able to finish our food—few do, I’m told—we did manage to leave room for dessert. In no time, the waitress delivered a heaping piece of Queen Ama cake. It shouldn’t have been surprising that the cake had many tasty layers. Like the restaurant and its patrons, they were shades of pink, yellow, white and toasty brown. MTW

Alpha Blondy

So there it is. Go check out this amazing soul. It has been too long, and now is definitely the time for “One Love.” Oh, and special guests include Dawn Penn, Levi Mayers, Oshen, Humble Soul and Ekolu. Sunday, 4 p.m. Maui Arts And Cultural Center, Kahului Tickets: Adv $25, Gate $30 [KIMBERLY L. WELCH]

His real name is Sedou Kone, but he changed it to Alpha Blondy, which means “First Bandit.” Reason being is he was known as being a rebellious soul. I have to admit I wasn’t sure what to think when I first heard the name Alpha Blondy, nor what to expect from the album titled Cocody Rock. Blondy sings in Dioula, English, French, Arabic and Hebrew. So put this voice with the sound of the international 12-piece band, called The Solar System. You have one heck of sound. I defiantly agree that the name fits this ensemble. Alpha Blondy and The Solar Systems breaks it down with Jah Anthems promoting Love, Peace and Social Consciousness. Did I mention that Alpha Blondy is a strong supporter of African Unity? He’s truly an African Rasta. Blondy has a wide variety of musical influences with bands like Pink Floyd, The Beatles, Creedance Clearwater Revival, Hendrix and of course soul artists like the one and only Otis Redding. Robert Nesta Marley made an impact on Alpha Blondy when the Reggae vibe hit. And if you’re a true Reggae fan, then you can figure that the rest speaks for itself. I wonder what it would be like to be able to hang out with this true African Rasta. Thank goodness I got a chance to ask someone who knows someone that knows what they’re like. Okay, so he was a bit closer—he’s gotten the chance to check out the live shows, and he knows what’s up. “It has been 14 years since this amazing soul has graced Maui with his spiritual energy,” said Jonathan Mack, the show’s promoter. “Alpha Blondy is the classiest Reggae act I have every seen. His band The Solar System, especially the horn section ads so much energy, they ad a twist of French mixed with Reggae Music. It’s a must-see. Everyone in this band brings a unique presence that could be felt in a room. Alpha defiantly showcases, love for life, music and culture. This Alpha Blondy show will be a blessing in the life of all music lovers.”

Mullet Hunters

Hana Film Festival

Saturday, 9 p.m. at Paradice Bluz in Lahaina

Saturday, 2:30 p.m. to pau at the Hana Ball Field [FILM FESTIVAL] Here’s a phrase you don’t hear too often: “Free Film Festival.” No, I’m not kidding. You’ve got to go to Hana to see it, but hey, is that really asking so much? Live music starts at 3:30, and the film projectors start rolling at sunset. In all, there are seven films: Ho’okipa: a comedy about three friends, filmed entirely on Maui IZ—The Man Behind The Music: a documentary on Israel “Iz” Kamakawiwo’ole, one of the most beloved Hawaiian musicians ever. Kamea: the story of a teenage Hawaiian girl, shot on Oahu’s North Shore. The Hawaiians—Reflecting Spirit: a unique look at Hawaiian culture. Fafa: Kenneth K. Martinez Burgmaier’s tribute to the late Tahitian master canoe carver. Rolling Down Like Pele: a live action/animation take on the hula. Ipo Lei Manu: an animated short about Queen Kapi’olani. [ANTHONY PIGNATARO]

[MULLET BAND] First of all, anyone with a name like that is worth checking out. I hate to sound like a little princess, but who the hell has a mullet anymore? I know mullets are still kinda popular in Hawai’i, but if there is a worse look for a person, I don’t know it. Hence, I am happy to hear there are some fellas out there who have at least thought about hunting these people. And, they are an indie rock band… from Wisconsin. Now, that is hot. Go Badgers!! Apparently, they’re very enthusiastic encouragers of drinking and dancing. Being that this island is full of boozers, I think they’re playing to the right crowd. 151 and Coke? WHO’S COMING WITH ME!?!

Hula Hefeweizen!

Wednesday, 2:30 p.m. at Hula Grill Ka’anapali

Wednesday, 7 p.m. at the Cameron Center Auditorium in Kahului

[CORPORATE KEGGER] Hula Grill in Ka’anapali is now serving Kona Brewing Company’s Hula Hefeweizen—you know, the beer where you drop in a little lemon wedge—so that means they’re having a big party. I know, I know, parties with lots of beer are really boring, but hear me out. You see, this one should be good. The high point of the event— and no, I’m not making this up—will take place at 2:30 when a canoe paddled by members of the Lahaina Canoe Club will haul a “commemorative keg” of Hula Hefeweizen that’s draped in a grass skirt up onto the beach in front of Hula Grill. Man, that’s class. Oh, and the band Lahaina Grown will play some tunes and there will be hula dancers from the Old Lahaina Luau. Who knows—it could be fun after all. [ANTHONY PIGNATARO]

[FOOD TALK] The Vegetarian Society of Hawai’i sponsors a lot of these free nutrition talks. Do you know why? Because you people refuse to eat your vegetables. This month’s wisdom comes to us from Dr. Milton Mills, a nutrition researcher and practicing physician in Washington, D.C. His topic will be novel: attacking the commonly held belief that because we have sharp incisor teeth and a tendency to drool when confronted with a slab of prime rib cut about yay thick and served medium rare means we’re “designed” to eat meat.

Maui Arts & Cultural Center TICKETS: 242 SHOW (7469)

Welcome to the Suck Sam Mendes shows why we shouldn’t fight Director Sam Mendes delivers a fullblooded rendering of marine Anthony Swofford’s unvarnished meditation on war with a theatrically bound story that could work well as a stage play. With a script version (by screenwriter William Broyles Jr.) based on Swofford’s book of the same name, Mendes apprehends the character driven motivations of confusion, boredom, fear and self-loathing that torment a group of “every-soldiers” waiting for months in the Arabian desert for the Gulf War to begin so they can kill some-

HHHHH Jarhead

thing, anything. Jarhead candidly reveals the mental condition and attitudes of its participants without ever fetishizing or gamorizing violence. Practically all of the brutality we witness is of a psychological nature. “Once you go to war—you will always be at war,” is the film’s clear message. It’s pointless to compare Jarhead with the host of late 20th century war genre classics that include Apocalypse Now, The Deer Hunter, Platoon and Full Metal Jacket. Even David O. Russell’s Three Kings is off limits for resemblance because of the psychologically surgical way Jarhead allows its audience to realize its protagonist’s dilemmas that inform his transition into antagonist. In Jake Gyllenhaal’s opening voice over introduction as Corporal Swoff, he stoically tells how a soldier’s relationship to his gun will forever infect every other activity he will use his hands for during the course of his life. Whether holding a woman in his arms, building a house or changing his baby’s diaper, his hands will always operate with the muscle memory of holding and firing a rifle. Both Apocalypse Now and The Deer Hunter are referenced in Jarhead at different times and in different ways that acknowledge the social coin of those movies. An audience of recruits sings along to Wagner while

watching Apocalypse Now, and energetically comment to one another about the strategy of the onscreen killing wherein helicopters fire on a tiny Vietnamese village. These are bloodthirsty young men who perceive the violence of war movies as instructional to the way they will eventually kill an enemy that their commanders have objectified as murderous scum. A great irony of the movie is that the only murder we witness in Jarhead occurs during a training exercise where live ammunition is fired above the heads of recruits crawling on their bellies through mud and barbed wire. Commanding officers refer to Saddam Hussein as “Saddam Insane” between the American soldiers’ perpetual rant of “Are we ever going to get to kill anyone?” The insanity at hand is more prosaic than the operatic kind we typically associate with despots or as it occurs in war films in the context of chaotic battle. Instead, we watch a group of soldiers obsessed with whom, and how, their wives or girlfriends are cheating when they aren’t taunting one another or inventing ways of forgetting where they are. It is the summer of 1990, and third-generation enlistee Swoff is made a sniper by Staff Sergeant Sykes (Jamie Fox) and partnered with Troy (Peter Sarsgaard), to serve as his scout, for the Surveillance and Target Acquisition Platoon. For all of Swoff’s precise marksmanship and Troy’s levelheaded demeanor, both men will reveal tragic weaknesses under the snarling scrutiny of their job as soldiers during the six months that they wait for a chemical warfare battle that never arrives. Through awkward interviews between the platoon and the media, near-fatal accidents, burning oil fires and grim visitations with corpses, Mendes shows the Gulf War from the ground. It’s not a view that most of us are familiar with due to the restricted American media that isn’t allowed to cover America’s wars since the disaster of Vietnam. The anti-war polemic of Jarhead is carried in the subtext of every scene in the movie, but it’s never directly approached. When one soldier waxes political about the American government’s grab for oil, Troy says, “Fuck politics, we’re here.” He could just as easily have said, “If you’re so smart, then why are you a soldier?” Either way, the message is the same.

‘Da Language Dat We Breathe’ How to speak good pidgin

Da Kine Dictionary By Lee Tonouchi, Bess Press, 2005, $11.95 Lee A. Tonouchi is known as “Da Pidgin Guerrilla.” He’s a fierce advocate of the language folks on the islands call “pidgin.” As far as I know, everything he does and says and writes is in pidgin. Hawaiian pidgin is a Creole of languages evolved to facilitate communication among the many cultures meeting and mixing in the Hawaiian Islands through the 1800s and 1900s. Various languages merged to make this diverse, musical mix of clipped vocabulary and breezy syntax an effective and attractive means of communication. Tonouchi is a master of pidgin, as well he should be. He’s been speaking and studying and teaching pidgin all of his life. Tonouchi is also a funny guy, a poet, a performer, editor of Hybolics—the local review of poetry, prose, drama and nonfiction—and now he’s a lexicographer, too. (No, I don’t know what the pidgin for lexicographer is, but I bet he does.) Years ago, Tonouchi got the idea for a pidgin dictionary. Realizing that language is bigger than any one man’s vocabulary, and rather than do the whole thing himself, he decided that the best plan was to get all the speakers of pidgin to contribute to a volume. Da Kine Dictionary contains many though not all of the words that are part of the vocabulary of pidgin. Some are more recognizable than others. Some are

Japanese words. Some are Hawaiian words. Some are Korean. Some are English. Some is American slang, both antique and current to the point of rap. All are “pidginized” to serve within the flexible rules of the grammar and syntax of pidgin. This book is not a scholarly work. It’s for fun, and it’s beautiful—the layout and photographs attract the eye as they illustrate the vocabulary. Yet there is a serious side to Tonouchi’s unrelenting pursuit of pidgin, and he elaborates on his deeper concerns about pidgin, English and communication in his book Living Pidgin. In these pages, Tonouchi spends a lot of time questioning assumptions about language and re-focusing attention on the purpose(s) of what is known as “Standard English” and pidgin. For Tonouchi, pidgin is the essence of freedom. Pidgin embraces all variations and vocabularies, out-Englishing English, which has always been a sponge and a sink for words from “other” languages, in its ability to absorb vocabulary from every linguistic well. “Pidgin is/da language dat we breathe/da words dat we sing,” writes Tonouchi in Living Pidgin, and one of his concerns is the use of pidgin in teaching writing, reading and literature to many local students, a project both clever and wise in the Age of Distractions that is the Third Millennium. He notes that Wayne Westlake considered the language familiarly designated “pidgin,” otherwise known as Hawaiian Creole English, a useful tool for getting “Local kids all excited about language” and “da key fo’ dem fo’ be able for learn standard english.” Tonouchi agrees that its all about access and excitement and, in his classes, proves that pidgin provides an avenue for many local students into producing writing at the college level, composition of both the expository and creative kind. Looking at the history, Tonouchi writes, “Pidgin was a language born out of diversity and adversity.” That rings true, and if my latest college course on language and society is any indication, pidgin is still a viable source of controversy as well. We read Living Pidgin in the course of the course, and the number of differing opinions concerning the viability and validity of pidgin in Hawai’i today matched the number of people in the room. You know the range of opposing extreme opinions on pidgin, so I won’t detail them here, but as one would expect, Tonouchi is an articulate advocate of the seething sea of speech that boils around, about, and within pidgin.

He is such a proponent of freedom of and in speech, that he is even an opponent of standardizing pidgin in the manner that many speakers of English, woefully misinformed as they are, believe English has been standardized. Tonouchi writes, “[I]f we do create one standard Pidgin, den doesn’t dat violate da very nature of da language?” Good question. Doesn’t standardization jeopardize the life of ANY language? For you, dear reader, I answer most emphatically, yes! In a small-minded age where freedom of all kinds is threatened by the short-sighted who think they can preserve and defend it,

LETTERS

Monday11/07 – Wednesday11/09

“So this is how liberty dies, with thunderous applause…” -Padme Amidala (Natalie Portman) in Revenge of the Sith, 2005 In a movie—okay, six movies—filled to the rafters with wildly overblown computer imagery, physics-defying action, headache-inducing explosions and goofy, tin-ear dialogue, George Lucas somehow managed to describe exactly the tragically perverse process of democracy twisting itself into fascism in a scant nine words. He could not have helped the world more had he chiseled them into the Capitol dome marble. (Anthony Pignataro)

Keiki

“Would you really feel any pity if one of those dots stopped moving forever? If I offered you 20,000 pounds for every dot that stopped, would you really, old man, tell me to keep my money or would you calculate how many dots you could afford to spend? Free of income tax, old man. Free of income tax.”

LECTURES

-Harry Lime (Orson Welles) in The Third Man, 1949 There are few more chilling lines than this, uttered by international gangster Lime to his buddy Martin (Joseph Cotten) while riding a giant ferris wheel, looking down on the people walking below. (AP)

“Deer Dream” - Tue, 7 p.m., at Maui Booksellers, Wailuku. Mary Sukup will discuss the idea of claiming personal vision and talk about her self published book “Deer Dream", a publication for the contemplative mind, featuring more than twenty-one digital reproductions of her original paintings combined with poetry expression of a mystical experience. Free. For info call 244-9091.

“Obviously I’m behind on my drinking.” - Sir Charles Sedley (Richard Griffiths) in Stage Beauty, 2004 This line was spoken by a despicable character, an obnoxious aristocrat with too much power and time on his hands to do any good. Sound familiar? But aside from his overall maliciousness and contempt for humanity, Sir Charles Sedley was astute enough to know when to medicate. War, injustice, plague— Sedley could care less about such things. He’s here to say that when things don’t make sense—or even when they do—it’s best to put on that curly white wig and drink up! (Samantha Campos)

Meat is for the Dogs - Wed, 7 p.m., at the Cameron Center Auditorium, Wailuku. Medical research links cardiovascular diseases and cancers to dietary and lifestyle factors. Medical authorities now counsel Americans to adopt a more plant-based diet, begging the question: Are humans designed to eat meat? Milton Mills, M.D. discuses the role nutrition plays in the development of chronic diseases. Free. For info call 575-7694.

“Life isn’t how many breaths you take. It’s the moments that take your breath away.”

Viniyoga and the Medical Profession - Sat,10 a.m. - 12 p.m. at Studio Maui, Haiku. All medical professionals are invited to a class in therapeutic yoga. Mirka Kraftsow will take the class through an experience of the Viniyoga practice, which is designed to address individual conditions. No experience in yoga is necessary but identification is required to attend. For more info and reservations call 575-9390.

- Alex Hitchens (Will Smith) in Hitch, 2005 First of all, I’m in love with Will Smith. I was also swept off my feet by his character in this movie. This is one of those oh-so-girly moments I encounter every once in a while: after the above words escaped his sexy lips, I caught myself sighing and hugging a pillow while making eyes at the screen. Yes, I am aware this is totally pathetic, but it’s a great quote nonetheless. (Heidi King)

POETRY

“Just when I think you couldn’t possibly get any dumber, you go and do somethin’ like this… And totally redeem yourself!”

Express Yourself - Mon and Wed, 7 p.m. at Cafe Marc Aurel, Wailuku. Open Mic Night with music, song, poetry! Free. For info call 276-5467.

Harry (Jeff Daniels) in Dumb and Dumber, 1994 After Harry and Lloyd (Jim Carrey) have a huge fight and go their separate ways, Lloyd shows up on a moped that he traded for their van. What a way to make up! You have to appreciate the valiant effort Lloyd puts into restoring their friendship and the ability Harry has to forgive so easily. Maybe they weren’t so dumb after all. It also makes a great line you can bust out on your friends when they do something that doesnt’ even have to be that dumb. (HK)

Teen poetry reading - Tue, 6:30 p.m. at Lahaina public library. Come listen, and read your own or any of your favorite poetry. It can also be rap or performance. There are poems for all ages. Free. For info call 6623950.

If not now, when?

Wouldn’t it be cool if one man could make a difference for all the people in the world? Everyone’s consciousness would understand love and how to enlighten itself in continuously living gracefully from the heart. It would mean a world without fear: fear of global warming, fear of the nuclear power plants built on the fault line, fear of the WAR, the chaos. Aries! Please, baby of the signs, have no fear!! Live it! Love it! And remember to keep those actions sincere. No matter what you get yourself into, be quick to listen and respect all as kings and queens.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 21) When you see a symbol or a random letter on the ground, it speaks to you like gods and goddesses whispering poetry in the night. The mirage of heat that moves in rhythm with the waves of these visions is clever enough to base a good movie on. We all know you are the most intellectual sign, Gemini, and you might have more trouble keeping the mind relaxed if you don’t talk to your lover about what’s really going on. Why are people so afraid of honesty? Being honest from the beginning is your best bet and you’ll be surprised at the new levels you’ll reach because of it.

Slowly but surely, the seed rises from the ground. On top of the new tiny tree, it wears its brown seed shell like a hat, almost as if not noticing it at all. Pulling gently on the cap, it comes off and pop! The leaves open and a plant is born into the world. Sunday and Monday are going to be challenging, so be ready for it. All I’m saying, love, is express your true dreams to the universe in light of fulfilling those goals with a plan and your unmet needs will be satisfied. No matter how free you are, stick to your responsibilities, k?

LEO (JULY 22-AUGUST 21) Wow. Isn’t it amazing? So, now what are you going to do, Leo? This is your chance to use time wisely. Are you comfortable leaving it where it is or do you want to go to the next level and focus on THE FUTURE? You could look for a year, two years, five hours or 10 minutes, but as long as you’re laughing with your fire bright, landing on your feet every time and having plenty of good water to drink, this week will be no problem. If in need of some new ideas, meditate on them and you will be amazed in your heart how strong the pulse of the universe really is.

VIRGO (AUGUST 22-SEPTEMBER 22) You have a rewarding week, Virgo. The magic and mystery of your fifth dimension and innocence shines like a diamond. Take a deep breath and seriously go for the gold. Make it perfect the way it’s supposed to be, but let’s not be too hard on us folks who just aren’t as skilled. Hey! Easy on the salt and butter! Your earth attractiveness and true energy of love says to me: MAKE LOVE, NOT WAR. Be safe and believe in your heart’s long-term goals. Virgo would go.

PLACING AN AD IS EASY!

LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23-OCTOBER 22) Look out! What are you going to do with this new flow of energy coming at you like a lion in the jungle? With work not really going the direction you would like it to, you might find yourself wondering, Is there anything else for me to do here? Keep your dreams high and don’t stumble on the bricks of too many options. This week, explore some new directions in the work environment because job satisfaction is key.

SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23-NOVEMBER 21) Now that the sun is in your sign, all people in general will bloom into the similar existence to your being, with the cool waters of Maui trickling through our consciousness. Oh! Well, guess who it is, just around the corner? Don’t be surprised to face some old past acquaintances during this new moon in Scorpio on the first. But wasn’t there something you wanted to share? The microphone is now in your hands and we all thank you for the deep truth behind the original fibers of all mankind and nature that shine through your words and inspiration.

CALL BRAD AT 661-3786 EXT. 5

SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22-DECEMBER 21) You are doing great on the third, fourth and fifth of this week, but if you jump to conclusions, you might skip over the communication necessary for you and your lover to get to the next level. Stick to what you had planned in the first place. The fire inside your being can be so hot that it burns those in the near vicinity. Some like it hot, some like it cold. Let your inner strength and devotion please the ones who truly love you for who you are, and don’t worry about what expectations others have. Take it easy, but stay focused.

CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22-JANUARY 20) The universe is telling me you actually can get away with biting off more than you can chew right now, as long as you do your homework. You have to deal with some serious health issues. The ball is in your court and if the doc says do this and you don’t, well, guess what? They might be tempted to say, “I told you so” and then smear on some more consequences. Well hey, Capricorns, I’m here to save you the trouble by shining a little love on the subject. The truth hurts even more when you don’t believe in it. It’s time to eat right, drink more water, study good nutrition and do your yoga in the morning. After all, wouldn’t it be nice to enjoy your life now?

DAY&NIGHT

PISCES (FEBRUARY 20-MARCH 20) Waiting for your lover to make an important decision for you could very well end up in disappointment. The distractions will be intense because everyone else is already 10 steps ahead, they think. Don’t be afraid of holding back and being you at this time. No one said you had to jump into a space you know already is a part of the illusion and challenge of the universe. Be willing to share your visions of psychic energy to those who truly listen.
