Re the woman with the McCain bumper sticker [“Eh Brah!�, November 6]: Look at the exit polls on CNN. As far as “race,� McCain only won the older white male vote, he lost the Asian, African American and Hispanic vote (all ages). Not to mention he lost the educated and youth vote. Leave it to Beaver families, American Bandstand and Little House on the Prairie are now things of the past. America is no longer mostly a wholesome white Christian nation. Learn to recognize this—it’s not the 1950s anymore, you can’t vote your way back in time. Oh, and I wouldn’t talk too much of the U.S. Constitution out here to locals, especially Hawaiians. That’s a can of worms a newcomer isn’t ready to debate. You have a valid point, but that doesn’t go too far out here. I don’t think they “hate your children�; they may just be concerned for what you’re raising them to be. I personally know many friends recovering from their brainwashed upbringings. Know it All, submitted online at mauitime.com
OBAMA DIDN’T READ OUR TEXTS?!? Kate, do you really have a brother ‘bout to be deployed [“Texts to the president,� November 6]? If so, my prayers are with you and your family. I enjoyed reading these. Probably Barack was too busy but I share your wishes and worries. Great election coverage, Maui Time. Your endorsements were how I voted. Too bad we still get the same ol’ same ol’ here on Maui. Kai, Wailuku town, submitted online at mauitime.com Kate responds: Yes, I do. Thanks for the kind words.

Many had hoped that with a change of editor, MTW would finally have a more balanced perspective on the state of the nation and local political realities. Unfortunately, it appears “business as usual.� Firstly, not knowing the correct political party of one of the candidates standing for the 2nd Congressional District seat since he was not from one of the two major political parties. Then in a recent Coconut Wireless column you attack the third parties because they were unable to secure media coverage for
an event. Everyone but the Republicrats has been virtually locked out of ALL the media in this country, including yours. When thousands of voters went to the polls recently, many were shocked to see that in the race for the 2nd Congressional District, there were four candidates on the ballot, including a Libertarian and Maui’s very own Shaun Stenshol, running as an Independent Party candidate. For President of the United States, our options expanded to a choice of six different candidates, since Hawaii is one of only five states which does not allow write-in voting. Besides the two major corporate political parties that dominate the political landscape, there were also candidates representing the Constitution Party and the Libertarian Party, whose candidate was a former four-term Congressman from Georgia. Also on the ballot was the standard bearer of the Independent Party, Ralph Nader, and on the Green Party ticket was Cynthia McKinney, a six-term Congresswoman, also from Georgia. Yet this paper, as most every other publication in the state of Hawaii, would have had us believe that our choice for president was limited to one of only two people. With the importance of the issues affecting our community, and the nation, one wonders why the debates were limited to only two political parties and the media continued to lock out all of the various political perspectives offered by the alternative and third political parties. It is up to us, the voters and residents of our community, to demand in the future that our media open themselves up to a variety of opinions on a regular basis and offer to their readers a variety of possibilities. Nikhilananda Huelo, Makawao Ed. Note: Thanks for your thoughts. Just to be clear, we did run an article in the Oct. 2 issue titled “Party crashers� that focused on third party presidential candidates. Stenshol and the other contenders for the 2nd Congressional seat were mentioned in our endorsement issue (we did misidentify Stenshol’s party affiliation but have since corrected the error). Anyone claiming to be “shocked� by these candidates’ presence on the ballot cannot in fairness blame Maui Time. As for the recent Coconut Wireless—read it again. Third parties weren’t criticized for failing to get media coverage, they were criticized for being disorganized and for their petty infighting. Big difference.

True blue change A trip to the Mainland reveals the two faces of America “People get ready/ There’s a train a-coming/ You don’t need no baggage/ You just get on board…” –Curtis Mayfield s I walked through the streets of downtown Chicago on the day after the election, warmth suffused me. Yes, it was an unseasonably balmy November day, and would later reach 68 degrees. But beyond that, the exuberance that filled Grant Park the previous night, with an estimated quarter of a million people celebrating Barack Obama’s election, held the city in an afterglow. So many people wore T-shirts bearing the likeness of Obama, our president-elect. More often than not, my
A
“Looking at national maps of red and blue states, one might get the impression this is still largely a Republican nation.” glance at a passerby’s apparel would be met with an unabashed smile. I saw a mother with a boy perhaps 10 or 12 years old, who sported a shirt with Obama’s portrait and the word “Hope” underneath it in colorful letters. When, I pondered, did it become cool for a boy of this age to wear a shirt with the image of a presidential candidate? These are remarkable and uplifting times, indeed. I made my way to the Palmer House Hilton, a stately, century-old landmark with a huge lobby and frescoed ceiling. There, I met three campaigners with the San Francisco-based Rainforest Action Network (RAN). Andrea, Bria, and Adrian had arrived the previous night and were part of the mirthful revelry in Grant Park. Though they had stayed up until 3am, they were nevertheless wide-eyed with stories of the mood of the evening and of sponta-
neous, congenial interactions with strangers in the crowd. We ventured across the street, crossing under the tracks of the el, the Windy City’s elevated transit system. We entered a Kinko’s to pick up printed and laminated posters, to be used the following day. There, an African American man with yet another Obama T-shirt broke into the rhythm of a hip-hop poem: “Eloquent speaker, smooth demeanor/High achiever, justice redeemer/Avid reader, Jesus believer/Irresistible charismatic leader.” Grinning broadly, he introduced himself as Geoffrey “Doctor Groove” Watts, a “subway poet.” He was at Kinko’s making copies of his Obama poem. We each handed him a dollar for our own copy of the full verse. ur reason for coming to the Midwest was to attend the annual shareholders meeting of Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), a huge agribusiness conglomerate with holdings in several continents that produce and transport food, feed and fuel. We would drive three hours to ADM headquarters in Decatur, Illinois, smack dab in the middle of the state. This would be the second annual trip for Andrea and Bria, both well acquainted with the unsustainable corporate practices of ADM, Cargill and Bunge throughout the world. Hugely invested in both corn and soybeans in the U.S., ADM reaps federal price supports both for growing the crops and for producing biofuels (corn to ethanol, and soybean oil to biodiesel). But the rapid push toward biofuels has been a mixed bag at best, with food prices soaring, ethanol producer VeraSun filing Chapter 11 bankruptcy and petroleum prices dropping nearly as dramatically as they rose earlier this year. A gas station in Decatur advertised regular gas for $1.95 per gallon. Elsewhere, ADM is heavily invested in soy and sugar production in South America, is the world’s largest cocoa producer in Africa and is invested in palm oil production in Southeast Asia. In each case, there is ample evidence of rainforest and vital ecosystem destruction, displacement of indigenous people and small farmers, environmental pollution and exploitive labor practices. And so it was that we headed to Decatur, the “Soybean Capital of the World,” for a brief opportunity to address shareholders during the public comment
O
Voters want change, big agribusiness wants more of the same. period and to express our concerns. The positive vibe from the streets of Chicago earlier in the day began to dissipate as we hummed down the interstate lined with mile after mile of flat terrain, mostly the stubble of harvested cornfields, periodically adorned with cell phone towers. Beyond the country and Christian music stations, the reality of the rural hinterland stared us squarely in the face when we stopped at a Road Ranger gas station/convenience store. Outside, gallon bottle displays of windshield wiper fluid the color of blue shave ice syrup greeted us. Once inside, we stepped into a world of processed, packaged, sweetened snack foods, while an orange-red heat lamp gave rotisserie hot dogs an eerie glow. There were ample signs that we had reached some sort of cultural backwater, but none so apparent as when Bria found novelty gag gifts of hunting licenses for Osama bin Laden and Hillary Clinton. “Take careful aim,” the Clinton license warned, “as target has been known to suddenly swerve to the left.” The following day, we arose early and made our way to ADM headquarters. Arriving well before the scheduled meeting, we pulled into a church parking lot across the road. Soon, security surveillance was doing a drive-by, photographing our rental car. One by one, five police cars entered the lot, including a K-9 unit van. This seemed a heavy-handed reaction to RAN’s sign-waving efforts of a year earlier. We abandoned our own plans to hold signs, and drove into the ADM facility. There, we were singled out, questioned and searched by a staunch suit and tie security force, equipped with ear buds and radio communication. Though we had printed copies of shareholder proxies to attend—mine was on behalf to the New York City Police Pension fund, which holds 301,757 shares of ADM stock—we were told that we needed “admission tickets.” Much discussion ensued and we were finally permitted to enter the meeting after being briefed about meeting rules and handing over my camera.
CEO Patricia Woertz, who received a 2007 compensation package in excess of $17 million, addressed a well-dressed audience of shareholders, many of them likely Decatur residents showing up for the free soyburger lunch. Woertz shared news and plans of the company and vital statistics. “Every day, over 27,600 ADM employees in 60 countries on 6 continents at more than 320 sourcing facilities and more than 230 processing plants—interconnected by 2,100 trailers, 2,200 barges and 23,800 railcars— process more than 3 million bushels of oilseeds, 2 million bushels of corn, and 1 million bushels of wheat, among other crops, which together brought in more than $70 billion in revenue in 2008,” he said. We each read our statements, with special mention given to Hawaiian Electric Company’s proposals for importing Malaysian palm oil, and I beseeched everyone to read the current National Geographic article on palm oil’s key role in Borneo’s dwindling rainforests, threatening hundreds of species on that incredibly bio-diverse island. Woertz dismissed much of what we said, though afterwards several shareholders came forward and thanked us, urging us to “keep their feet to the fire.” e left Decatur, passing by the large industrial installation on the outskirts of town, with its sickly sweet aroma of corn-to-ethanol processing. We passed a local outlet of another corporate giant, McDonalds, with its sign boasting, “Billions and billions served,” a modern day update of Woody Allen’s movie “Sleeper” from more than 35 years ago. Back in Chicago, I checked in on Hawaii elections via the Internet. Apparently the call for change was limited to voters’ choice of a new president, as all County Council incumbents and two former councilmembers were reelected. A Maui News poll asked what message can be drawn from that outcome. Only 4 percent of respondents agreed that the state of the county is good and we should continue the

Right there on the beautiful beach of Maalaea, they are preparing their kill. To make matters more grotesque, they take the pig and rinse it off in the water where my children are swimming. Its like, HELLLOOOOO brah, get sharks around here. I was upset, picked up my kids and left. So much for a nice cruise day at Maalaea, looking at Kahoolawe, while my kids play in the shallow water.

NEWSOFTHEWEIRD GENDER GAP Recent research in the Journal of Economic Analysis and Policy sheds light on the thorny social issue of why females continue to earn less money than males, even in similar jobs. Competing hypotheses have been advanced: It’s either gender discrimination or simply that more women than men de-emphasize career aggressiveness in favor of family. The recent research suggests discrimination. Researchers found that females who were established in jobs and who then underwent sex changes actually increased their earnings slightly, but that males who became females lost about onethird of their earning power, according to an October summary of the research in Time magazine.
BROKEN LAWS (1) A 38-year-old man was cited for disorderly conduct in Fond du Lac, Wis., in September after he bought a beer for his sons, ages 2 and 4, at the county fair. He could not be cited for providing alcohol to minors because, under Wisconsin law, parents are exempt, but he was written up for swearing at police. (2) Meleanie Hain’s Pennsylvania concealed-weapons permit was revoked in September after spectators complained about her openly carrying her loaded, holstered Glock at her 5-year-old daughter’s soccer game. However, the only penalty under state law is the loss of the privilege of concealment, so that if Hain continues to carry the gun, she must do so openly.

son and the only time bull camels will fight (and even then, not always). There is at least one professional league, and sometimes, camels embody the pride of an entire village. A female is paraded in front of two males, then led away, and the supposedly frisky bulls tussle but only occasionally reach a resolution in which one subdues the other by sitting on him, according to a dispatch in Germany’s Der Spiegel. Usually, judges have to pick the winner on style, and sometimes the decision is easy, as one camel has simply run away.
EATING PUSSY In September, despite an increasing chorus of complaints, Peruvians celebrated the annual Gastronomic Festival of the Cat in a village just south of Lima, serving a variety of feline delicacies (fried cat strips, cat stew, grilled cat with spicy huacatay). For the most part, according to a Chicago Tribune report, the dishes are made with specially bred cats rather than street prowlers, and are consumed for their health benefits, though centuries-old tradition is the likeliest explanation. Said one Peruvian, such cultural events “are our roots and can’t be forgotten.”
THINNING THE HERD (1) A burglary suspect, running from police on San Francisco’s Telegraph Hill in September, jumped over a 3-foot wall, apparently not realizing that on the other side was a 200-foot drop. He died at the scene. (2) A 22-year-old woman was fatally hit by a car in Dallas in June when she stopped on the busy LBJ Freeway to take pictures of an accident scene. She was apparently just an overly curious rubbernecker. (3) A 54year-old road-raging woman burned up in her car in London in September after ramming the back of another car, bringing both to a stop, and then failing to realize that a fluid from her car had ignited the underside.

Earnest devotion is an almost too-easy target for mockery. But, as with all satire, the right delivery can still make it funny as hell. Enter The Onion, “America’s Finest News Source,” and their post-election parody news piece titled “Obama Win Causes Obsessive Supporters to Realize How Empty Their Lives Are.” The video features footage of young people decked out in head-to-toe Barackwear wandering zombie-like through the streets, muttering about voter registration and the need for change. As one “interviewee”—the roommate of an Obama supporter—puts it: “Up until yesterday, he was so annoying that I wanted to kill him.

district, I pointed my digital camera skyward to photograph a banner that bedecked lampposts across the city, proclaiming, “Congratulations Chicago’s own Barack Obama, President Elect of the United States of America,” signed by Mayor Richard M. Daley. “You can stand on my shoulders,” a voice called, “if you want a close-up.” There on the sidewalk in the evening chill stood a young African American man listening to his iPod. I walked over, thanked him and offered a handshake.
He clenched my hand, ran through an array of grips and finished with a shoulder bump. Just like that, I had been welcomed in South Chicago, and only blocks away from Barack Obama’s home. Change is happening all around us, galvanized around a man who spent his formative years in Hawaii. And though change seldom comes easily, there is no better time for it.

Looks like we’ll have to find someone else to pick on. Maui Land & Pineapple announced this week that CEO David Cole will be stepping down at the end of the year. Cole—who’s gotten his share of flack in this space for accepting $4.1 million in stocks and cash even as his company initiated massive layoffs—will remain on in an advisory role and as the company’s rep on the Superferry board. (Hey, he does know a thing or two about sinking ships…ba-dum-cha!) Cole’s replacement is chief operating officer Robert Webber, who inherits a company that posted a third quarter loss of nearly $9 million. Good luck, Rob. You’re gonna need it.
Speaking of top-down shakeups: after changing CEOs last month, Hawaii Medical Center, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in August and has laid off hundreds of workers, announced its chief operating officer, Catherine Tanaka, will retire at year’s end. Her successor will be Salim Hasham, who Pacific Business News describes as a “turnaround expert.” Here’s betting that job description has found its way onto more than a few resumes in the last several months.
Alright, let’s just stay on the theme: Hawaii Superferry did a little dismissing/restructuring/realigning of its own, firing business development director Terry O’Halloran and Maui operations manager Duane Kim. The moves come as the Superferry prepares for its December 18 day in court, when an appeal by opponents who say the vessel should never have been launched without a completed environmental impact statement will be heard.

The feds ponied up another $40 billion of our money to teetering insurance behemoth AIG this week, bringing the total price tag of that particular bailout, er, financial rescue package to $150 billion. This is the part where we might normally launch into a rant about all the things that money could have bought, but instead let’s just ask: now that the government is subsidizing insurance anyway, how about we cut out the middle man and get rid of these corporate crooks? No? OK.
Man, we really had to scrape the bottom of the barrel to find an “arrow up” story this week. So here’s the barrel scrapage: PBN reports that even as auto sales flatlined, sales of scooters and mopeds shot up statewide this year. Part of the spike was due to high gas prices, but ease of parking was also cited as a factor. That’s definitely the best reason to switch from four to two wheels here in Wailuku, where the infamous Officer Taguma has chalking tires and meting out $60 fines down to a cold science. MTW

again to Maui’s community station for providing freewheeling-but-solid coverage throughout the evening (and, again, free food!). I watched the President-elect’s speech with my son in my arms and, while I know it was just rhetoric and that he’s not going to change the world overnight (or maybe at all), it was a nice moment. It’s been a while since national politics and nice moments have occupied the same zip code. So let’s enjoy it. At the local level, the results were less encouraging. We get into this in the feature so I’ll just say—really, Maui? A spirit of change so thick you could slather it on your forearms to prevent melanoma, and this is what we wind up with? Even those members of the newly elected County Council who arguably stand for change or at least provide a dissenting voice, like Wayne Nishiki, are old hands. Not saying experience is bad per se, but a little fresh blood would have been welcome. Disappointing. And, even worse, predictable.

The last time I was out socially lubricating, I struck up a conversation with a guy who turned out to be a self-professed economic expert. (He was also three or four mai tais into his evening, so take his word for what it’s worth.) Anyway, he did offer an instructive metaphor for the current economic crisis: a forest fire. Forest fires come in and burn off all the dead brush and some of the live brush too, but when they’re finally extinguished, the stuff that’s left behind is actually stronger and healthier. That’s one of the first bits of (sort of) hopeful economic analysis I’ve heard that actually rang true. On the opposite end of the ringing true spectrum: a luncheon was convened recently in Lahaina where, The Maui News reports, State Tourism Liaison Marsha Wienert gave a talk to local business owners titled “The Up Side of the Downturn.” That might be the most depressing catchy slogan I’ve ever heard… In other news: Rekindling our hard-hitting, Pulitzer-nominated series Victorino Watch 2008: Mike wins uncontested reelection to a County Council that’s likely to approve big fat developments; Shane wins a Gold Glove for defensive excellence and further improves his chances of landing a big fat contract.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 8 Took a trip out to Hana with some visiting family for the weekend, so I’m logging this entry as I swat mosquitoes, almost totally cut off from the rumblings of civilization. Yeah, pretty awesome.
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 9 Top cops on the Big Island say they plan to bust people for marijuana infractions just like they did before November 4, the Hawaii Tribune-Herald reports. In case you were too busy cleaning your bong to get the news, Hawaii County passed by almost 10,000 votes a ballot initiative that calls for pot busts to be the lowest law enforcement priority (essentially one step away from outright decriminalization).
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 11 Hawaii’s official state quarter was released yesterday, finally completing the set that the U.S. Mint launched nearly a decade ago. (Interesting coincidental factoid: the quarter that started the series was from Delaware, meaning that the first and final coins represent the home states of our new Vice President and President, respectively.) The Aloha State’s 25-cent piece features King Kamehameha I waving his royal hand over the islands; it’s simple and striking and one of the better entries. It kinda makes me want to start a collection. Hey, in these crazy times, a commemorative case might be the best place to stash your money. MTW

WHY NOT? IN AN ELECTION THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE ALL ABOUT CHANGE, ACTIVIST LUCIENNE DE NAIE CHALLENGED MAUI’S DEVELOPER-FRIENDLY GOOD OLD BOYS CLUB—AND LOST. WHAT HAPPENED? BY KATE BRADSHAW or someone who just lost an election, Lucienne de Naie is remarkably energized. Only a few days after being soundly beaten by incumbent Bill Medeiros in the race for the East Maui County Council seat, the activist and state Sierra Club chair entered Maui Time’s office fresh off a Makena development meeting where, she said, developer Everett Dowling personally complimented her on a campaign well run—and told her she had him worried. Dowling can rest easy for now. De Naie, and other progressive candidates like her, failed to crack the seemingly bulletproof glass ceiling of Maui’s entrenched political establishment. In an election that was supposed to be all about change, at the county and state level Mauians stuck with the status quo. We asked de Naie for her take on the election and the future of Maui politics.
F
“I MAY NOT HAVE BEEN BORN HERE, BUT BEING BORN SOME PLACE DOESN’T NECESSARILY MEAN THAT YOU ARE GOING TO FIGHT FOR THAT PLACE.” So what happened to change? Voting for change is too simplistic. People don’t vote, generally, if they don’t know anything about a person; they tend to just leave that part of their ballot blank. My understanding is that a lot of the folks who came out to vote for president filled in the box for president and maybe voted for one of the council offices and one of state offices and just didn’t fill out that part of the ballot because they were not frequent voters, they did not know anything about the other candidates. We had 10,000 blank ballots in this Maui race. That’s huge. That tells you that there are people who don’t know anything about either candidate. How can you have change when 20 percent of those who are voting have no idea who would represent that change? So that’s the candidate’s job—to reach those people. We did what we could with a volunteer campaign team. We had an army of people—people [who put] up signs, people who made phone calls, people who came to events and passed out things at senior events, people who came out to sign wave. We had a lot of involvement. But still there were 10,000 people, at least, who hadn’t heard about it.
Talk a little bit about the campaign. If you could do it over again, what would you do differently? I’d start earlier. But my situation is that I’m already involved in a lot of public service endeavors. I serve on nine boards and commissions. I serve on the General Plan Advisory Committee, for which this is the year where the rubber hits the road. Now, when this whole election cycle was beginning two years ago, I thought that GPAC would have completed its work by the end of 2007. That didn’t happen. Instead, we were just beginning. I had to make a command decision around April. People had been asking me to run, I had to make a decision: can I be on GPAC and run at the same time, and be at all these places and all these forums and everything and still have two or three GPAC meetings a week? These are, like, four or five-hour meetings. These are intense meetings with tons of reading and homework. Can I really do this? And that was my thought process. And so I didn’t really consider it in January. But about a hundred people said, “we’ll help you, we’ll help you—put your name in there, just give people a choice, all these Obama voters.” I went to the caucuses [earlier this year] and last time there had been 85 people, and now there were 1,200 people. So I made the decision: I will put my name in. Maybe I can’t run a full-on campaign like last time, but I’ll try to involve more people. And even if I can’t make it everywhere and do everything, at least people have a choice. If I had something to change, I would say, you
know, decide two years out that this is what I want to do, start organizing a campaign team at that point, and just give the whole process more time, build up more relationships with people. It’s all about relationships with people. If you’re not born and raised here and you don’t automatically have thousands of family members you really have to go create those relationships. So you wouldn’t change the tone of your campaign and focus on the more negative aspects of your opponent? That’s not who I am. When you run you can only change so many things about yourself. There are all these movies about taking an honest, young, hardworking person and turning them into this cynical politician because that’s what you need to do to get elected. That’d be tough for me. I certainly don’t shy from telling the truth about things. I have to say I was very disturbed in the forums and things where [candidates] were openly attacking the other person. Like the senate campaign and the Lanai seat. I mean, my opponent doesn’t live in his district—but is that the issue? His family’s lived in Hana for generations. Who am I to say he can’t represent Hana based on the fact that he’s not living there right now? People advised me to [go on the attack]. My opponent never filed his campaign disclosure forms for two years. Several people said, “get on that, let people know.” I don’t know. Maybe if I’d had another person involved in my

to run. I’ve had people suggest everything—move some place else and not run for the East Maui seat. But I’m not running for a seat to get a seat. I’m running because I feel that this district deserves representation from someone who loves and cares for the land and the water. And I’ve proved [that I do] for 27 years. I may not have been born here, but being born some place doesn’t necessarily mean that you are going to fight for that place.
“Most of the progress that we’ve ever had in this country has been caused by people who were not on the inside but who were pushing from the outside.”
What can your supporters do to affect change even if they don’t have a candidate on the council who represents their interests? Oh, that’s really simple. We’ve all seen all the campaign promises. They’re in print. Hold them accountable. If they told you they’re going to stand for the environment, make sure they [do]. If they told you that they will make sure we have energy choices for the future, ask them how they’re going to do that. If they say that they’re all for using our water wisely, then make sure they have the courage to restrict wasteful water use. Hold people accountable. I know it’s work. My self-assigned responsibility is to try to keep people informed about ways that they can make a difference. Most of the progress that we’ve ever had in this country has been caused by people who were not on the inside but who were pushing from the outside, and their ideas eventually were folded into the mainstream. I have no need to have an ego gratification. I only ran to be of service because so many people seemed to feel that I could bring skills to this office that were needed. If it could bring people hope [for me] to keep running, to keep getting those ideas out there, I think it’s worthwhile to do. And if there’s an army of people willing to join me, I’m willing to run. The only way I’m interested in running is if there’s that community force that wants to push forward and see someone who is independent and qualified and caring have their day and have their say, I’ll run.
campaign who really just wanted to do that stuff, but most of the people involved in the campaign were folks that I’ve known through a long life of community service. I didn’t have anybody on the team that was there to be the bad cop, digging out the dirt and making it pubic. Maybe I should have. I’m really not in that political arena. I couldn’t tell you whether that would have made a big difference or not. How do you reconcile your desire to get down to the issues with the more shallow aspects of a political campaign? You need to let folks know that you’re a caring and accessible individual. The whole thrust of my campaign was that I’m qualified to serve, I have a record of action, you can see my record, I’ve been doing this for no pay and my commitment is sincere. Mahina Martin was at the injection well meeting [Thursday] night and she goes, “none of the newly elected candidates are here. They’re all so concerned about reusing reclaimed water; here’s you and Kai Nishiki.” Yup, there we were, testifying before the EPA. What would it take for voters to eject some of the developer-friendly politicians from office? In my heart of hearts, I think that a very thoughtful coalition of different community groups could work to get independent candidates in. I think that’s what worked for Jo Anne Johnson. She just worked so hard, she networked with so many different people, and is so genuine. I think what it’s going to take is a better-informed electorate, and who knows? Maybe a polarizing event. Maybe things will get to where they’re more obvious to folks. I

think things need to come to a head. And I think there needs to be a better way for voters to get information. On the Mainland they use saturation—radio, TV, fliers. There probably weren’t many blank ballots for president. What, if any, role do you think race played in your contest? It was huge. I was not of an ethnic background that is easily trusted by the majority of people who vote here regularly. I’m very aware of it. I’ve always felt comfortable around people of all different backgrounds. I mean, [I’m] a Heinz 57 variety of all the European mixes. I don’t come from a Waspy elite background. I come from working class immigrants. I try to emphasize those values. My grandparents faced much the same things as many of the Filipino and Portuguese folks who came here. It’s all the same time. They all came over here in the early part of the century, with nothing, [hoping] that they would find opportunities. [They] had to take menial jobs. I have a pretty similar background to many of the people that are living here. I tried to emphasize that. My name is a disadvantage because it’s not a simple English language name like Johnson or Anderson or Couch. How about perceptions about those who have lived here their entire lives as opposed to those who haven’t? I think it’s a factor. I think people are concerned about that probably more so in the East Maui district. If I were running in South Maui or West Maui it’d be far less of an issue. But I don’t live there, so that’s not where I’m going
So do you plan on running again? I do. I’m going to keep my campaign committee active. Some very skilled people have come up in the last couple of days after the election wanting to be part of the team, [to help] raise money, raise awareness, offer strategies. So, I’m going to take all of these great people up on their offer. It’s a team effort; I’m a team person. What will you do in the meantime? How will your advocacy take shape and what issues will you focus on? I’m still tracking the same issues that I have for years. Building a new economy. Returning water to our streams. We’re making some progress in East Maui. We need to work with the reclaimed water from the sewage treatment plant. I really hope that after this visit with the EPA that we can find a funding solution to get the infrastructure we need to start phasing out the injection wells on the West Side. I’d like to see a gray water ordinance pass. I’d like to see incentives for renewable energy and really get it so that people can get their own independent systems up. I think that’s going to be necessary as we get into more uncertain times. I think Barack Obama’s going to be pushing for local energy independence. And that starts in your own home. If you can generate your own electricity at home, whether it’s your solar hot water, your solar electricity, your wind-generated electricity or some new method that we don’t even know about yet. I just think that government needs to be on the cutting edge of that. I’d also like to continue my work on land planning issues, tracking the General Plan. Our work on the GPAC will be completed at the end of February so we’ll be tracking that as it goes through the planning commission and the County Council over the next year. I’ve invested three years of my life and actually helped write a lot of the policy, the draft policy, that’s being presented to these bodies. I want to get in there and make sure that the ideas and concepts are put into action.
THERE WAS SO MUCH TALK ABOUT CHANGE THIS ELECTION. WHY DID MAUIANS STICK WITH THE STATUS QUO? The reality is that central Maui, which is predominantly old school and local, elects our council in nonpartisan races according to name recognition. Most of the new voters that made up the Obama wave may think of themselves as “change agents” but many don’t have a clue as to what that means on a local level. They are more often than not oblivious to who is running for what in their own backyard. This is unfortunate since, as the old pol Tip O’Neil once said, “all politics is local.” – Jay April, President of Akaku
I think there are many factors at play here. I think among the people who vote regularly there is one, a lack of real awareness of the issues affecting Maui county; and two, a fear of rocking the boat. The mainstream media has a good grip on keeping things status quo around here. They don’t print truly honest reports of how the current council members are doing. Good thing we have one independent paper! Those of us who show up to council meetings or watch them on Akaku and see how the council members are behaving are few and far between compared to the number of people who just read a version of it in the daily paper.
Council race to 20-40 percent for other areas’ races. The precincts that have statistically consistent blank votes across races are in Central Maui where votes are historically strongly correlated with union support and specific precincts elsewhere that strongly correlate with union support. Election results show that national efforts to get union members and pensioners out to vote ended up being successful in buoying support for union-supported incumbents locally. New voters that supported change nationally either didn’t care locally or didn’t know the extent of their voting franchise.
[Then there is] this idea of rocking the boat. I say, get new blood in there. Maui is a boat that needs to be rocked. Sometimes it feels like a sinking ship when I think of our dependency on the outside world. We need real leaders that are willing to steer our boat toward energy and food independence. This constant development of our island our council has approved over the years is unsustainable. Another factor is how many of the local votes were left blank, probably due to many people coming out to elect the president who didn’t take time to get informed about local candidates. This is a big loss. I know it takes time to get informed and most Mauians are busy working, but there are a lot of respected organizations doing the homework and taking the time to interview the candidates for you like the ‘Ohana Coalition and the Sierra Club. Just make sure it is from trusted organizations that care about Maui’s future and not special interest groups such as developers who only care about money.
– Lance Collins, attorney
I think that here in Hawaii we value tradition, honor and loyalty and that change can be scary. We like what is familiar to us. Our community would certainly benefit from some progressive ideas to expand our economy and gain greater independence through local energy and food production. Hopefully we can all work together to accomplish these goals.
– Angelika Hoffman, community organizer
If you look at the precinct reports, there is a trend. In South Maui, West Maui and Upcountry, the blank votes jumps from 10 percent for the residency area

I took that lesson, along with a very full belly, away from my lunch date at Class Act, the restaurant arm of MCC’s Culinary Academy. Serving gourmet-yet-affordable four-course midday meals Wednesdays and Fridays, with a new menu every week, Class Act is a true hidden gem that locals and tourists alike should add to their eating-out rotation.

Virtually every member of the dining room staff, from the folks who sear your salmon to the guy who refills your water glass, is a Culinary Academy student. They’ve clearly been well schooled on the finer points of fine dining—politeness and professionalism abound. The ambiance is also in keeping with the upscale theme; linen tablecloths, fancy menus and elaborate settings (I never know what to do with all those knives), not to mention a pretty solid view of both the ocean and the mist-shrouded mountains, make you forget you’re seated above a community college cafeteria. The food, as mentioned, changes week to week, so what I had won’t be what you’ll have. But there’s no reason
to think the high quality will change. Course one was a caramelized leek and goat cheese strudel served over smoked tomato sauce. I’m not usually a huge fan of goat cheese, but here the customary muskiness was muted and the flaky pastry and sauce provided excellent complimentary flavors. The salad that followed was just the way I like it—mixed greens joined by an array of special guest stars including nuts, roasted peppers, orange slices and cannellini beans. The dressing was light and allowed the fresh ingredients to do the talking. The toughest part of the afternoon was choosing an entrée; usually there’s one item that stands out—or a couple that don’t—but here everything was intriguing. In the end I settled on the pine nut crusted mahi-mahi, while my dining companion went with the grilled pork loin. The fish was excellent, one of the better bits of mahi I’ve had in a while, which, given how unbelievably ubiquitous that dish is on Maui, is saying something. It was served with a side of creamy gratin potatoes and veggies—asparagus and carrots cleverly tied up in a “bow” made of squash, one of many creative flourishes that elevated the meal’s artistic status. The pork, meanwhile, was incredibly tender, and pleased the palate with a sweat-and-savory meld of apple, leek fondue and cider gastrique (a fancy word for sauce, for those, like me, who occasionally need Google to demystify fine dining).

By this time we were both ready to burst, but there’s nothing like a light, fluffy butterscotch milk chocolate mousse to convincingly make the case that you’ve got a little room left after all. Looking at Class Act’s upcoming menu—which features items like filet mignon, braised lamb shank, wild mushroom risotto and peanut butter and chocolate profiteroles—it’s a safe bet that no matter when you choose to attend, you’ll eat like a king for a peasant’s ransom. I’m not their teacher—and given my propensity for burning microwave dinners that’s a decidedly good thing—but if I were, these food-slinging students would pass with flying colors.

Mind games Hypnotist Scott Lewis returns to Maui to mess with your head resh off a recent appearance at the Maui County Fair, Vegas hypnotist Scott Lewis is staging a pair of shows this weekend at the Maui Beach Hotel. The first, on Saturday, is a Vegas style, “anything goes” performance; the second, on Sunday, will be family friendly. We chatted with Scott about hypnosis skeptics, the temptation to abuse his power and whether waving pocket watches in front of people’s faces really works.

When did you first realize you wanted to be a hypnotist? I was going to school in San Diego and there was a hypnotist who had a regular show downtown on Friday and Saturday nights. I used to go and volunteer. The hypnotist was very pompous, wore a horrible ruffled tuxedo and had a very bad toupee—yet people loved him and his show. It was the most amazing thing I had ever seen and I knew instantly that was what I wanted to do. Is hypnosis something you can learn, or is it an inherited ability? I think it’s a little of both. You can definitely learn to do hypnosis but to be entertaining and command a show, you need to have stage presence, which can be developed, but I think some people are more suited to it than others.
Why did you choose hypnotizing for entertainment rather than, say, to get people to quit smoking? I actually do both. I’m a chiropractor by profession and started doing hypnosis to help people lose weight. In fact, I’ll be doing a group hypnosis session [on Sunday]. Anybody wanting to lose weight and/or quit smoking is invited. They don’t need to be afraid; nobody will be shaking their booty or thinking that they’re

Michael Jackson. I [also] love using hypnosis for entertainment. The shows are unlike any other shows you’ll ever see—you get to witness people letting go and being more confident, creative and imaginative then you’ve ever seen them. I also love the fact that all I need to make the “magic” happen is 20 or so chairs and my volunteers. I also like that these are the types of shows people talk about for a long time. Can you hypnotize someone who doesn’t believe it’s possible? For my stage shows, they need to volunteer with an open attitude. They can be a little nervous but as long as they have the desire to be hypnotized, they’ll do great. On
the other hand, I cannot hypnotize anybody who doesn’t want to be hypnotized. You always have complete control and I can never make anybody do anything they don’t want to do. You performed at the Maui County Fair. What’s different about hypnotizing Mauians? My shows in Hawaii and especially Maui have been the most fun. I’ve performed all over the world and found that the people of Maui have been some of the best subjects I’ve ever had. Maybe it’s the carefree attitude or the fact that you’re already living in paradise so there’s nothing to be unhappy about; Mauians love to have a great time. It’s also true that the smarter you are, the better volunteer you’ll be so I guess there’s a lot of really smart people in Maui. Have you ever been tempted to abuse your power? Is there a “hypnotist code of ethics”? I think every hypnotist has been tempted. Personally, I’ve never abused
any power I may have as I respect it too much as a valuable tool people can use to improve their lives. There is a hypnotist code of ethics: Don’t make anybody bark too loud; make sure that your clucking chickens don’t cluck after the show is over; make sure the guys you turn into Chippendale Dancers don’t take off their pants—unless it’s in Vegas. What’s the strangest thing that’s ever happened in one of your shows? I’ve had a woman who I told lost her clothes run out of the showroom and into the casino screaming that she was naked and everybody could see her “ta-tas.” [During] one show I did in Maui last year I had one of my “Chippendale dancers” climbing the pole in the tent, swinging his shirt over his head and screaming “I’m so sexy” over and over. Do any hypnotists actually wave a pocket watch back and forth in front of people’s faces? Only the cheesy ones who still wear polyester suits. MTW

Ways to forget your foot is f#@%ing broken Aqua Teen Hunger Force You may or may not have accepted the doctor’s offer to arm you to the teeth with an assortment of painkillers. If you turned him or her down, viewing Aqua Teen Hunger Force may lead you to suspect that the pharmie-soaked hospital air may have precipitated some pretty wacky meds into your ginger ale. This animated series stars three gigantic, anthropomorphic fast food menu items (Meatwad, a honey-filled meatball; Master Shake, a milkshake; and Frylock, an order of French fries) who have supposedly come to earth to fight crime. They reside on the Jersey Shore next to a dude named Carl whose automobile sports the decal “2 Wykyd.” The three get visits from some pretty trippy villains each episode. My favorite installment involves a pair of frat boy aliens who crash their spaceship into the heroes’ front yard. One constantly proclaims, “Dude, my dad totally owns a dealership.” Then there’s the one where Shake rewrites the birthday song and subsequently gets visits from Zack Wylde and Geddy Lee (who lands his bass guitar-shaped jet on their front lawn). So, the funny thing is, I’ve read interviews with the creators; they claim that there is no drug intake involved in the writing of the show, aside from caffeine. I suppose I believe that, considering Zappa was drug free.

Monty Python and the Search for the Holy Grail It’s actually been a while since I’ve seen this one…last time it was wintertime my freshman year of college in New Mexico. My best friends Josh and Rowyn and I were drinking Carlo Rossi with Mike and Ikes dissolved into it. Hey, we were a classy bunch. Now that I am essentially immobile it may be time to revisit this classic. I have a lot of spare time these days. Of course much has changed since my last Grail viewing: this time I’ll be watching it on DVD instead of VHS, I’ve graduated to mid-range pinot noir and I wouldn’t run over a box of Mike and Ikes with my shitty minivan. This flick’s appeal for the temporarily incapacitated lies in its taking place during a time when there was little medical care beyond bloodlettings and allowing leeches to crawl on you. Thus those with fractured metatarsals simply had a limp for the rest of their lives. Then again, few women of the Middle Ages lived far beyond 24, so at 26 I’d be doing pretty well if a broken bone is my only complaint. MTW

theonion.com In every workday, there comes a time when the caffeine wears off. The day’s tasks…suddenly hit a stretch….of blurry tedium. Haze sets in. At this point fully functioning individuals can bipedally make their way on down to the neighborhood caffeinery and thus gain a needed pick-me-up. Unipedal individuals who have a staircase or two to contend with are left with few options for late afternoon brain stimulation. This is when I dial up theonion.com. The humor featured on this fake news source is wickedly sharp. Most headlines warrant at least a giggle. (Ex.: “Kitten thinks of nothing but murder all day.”) Plus they’ve got video and audio news. (Ex.: “Cindy McCain claims that she’s just like any other female human.”) My favorite Onion story ever was titled “Bush executes 253 New Mexico Democrats.” It ran shortly after the 2000 election, when Gore had won New Mexico by an extremely slim margin. Yet while I’m drawn to its political “coverage,” The Onion is pretty damn clever in every arena, from the featured columnists to the spot-on sports news satire.

characters, toe-tapping musical numbers and some nicely animated action sequences. The sequel has a few good laughs, and is always a pleasure to look at, but is uneven and not as good as the first movie. It’s no Shrek The Third—more like Ice Age 2. LIVE ENTERTAINMENT - FAMILY FRIENDLY

CHICKEN & ASPARAGUS!
As in the CGI-animated original, the focus is on four escaped New York zoo animals: a lion (voiced by Ben Stiller); a “cracker-lackin’” zebra (voiced by Chris Rock); a hippo (voiced by Jada PinkettSmith); and a giraffe (voiced by David Schwimmer). This time, they find themselves happily stranded in Africa, where one of them reconnects with their past while the other three deal with an identity crisis and wrestle with romantic feelings. The stuff that didn’t work in the original— like the penguins (amusing but not that funny), the human characters and too many trendy jokes—doesn’t work here either. It’s funny having Alec Baldwin voice a lion with a sleazy pompadour, but this doesn’t go anywhere fresh or interesting (this is especially disappointing, as you expect an all-out spoof of The Lion King). The funniest joke is, of all things, a parody of a famous scene from Twilight Zone: The Movie! Stiller’s character and performance get the most laughs. While Rock’s work is inventive, the movie could’ve used more of him. Schwimmer is doing the same mopey

Until there’s universal health care…
Serious harmony
Friday (Nov. 14) 9am-1pm, Salvation Army Facility, 45 W. Kamehameha Ave., Kahului
Friday (Nov. 14), 9pm, Mulligan’s on the Blue, Wailea
Please don’t get me started on the current state of health care. It’s hard to resist. Example: the first time I broke my foot (the right one that time) I wasn’t sure if I had any coverage (I had been covered through my step mom’s plan, but wanted to make sure there wasn’t some random lapse). So there I was, foot swelling to about the size of a duck, calling my step mom to make sure I was still on the plan before going to the hospital. I mean, fuck, that’s a lot of debt for a fractured fifth metatarsal. “You are,” she said, “but it doesn’t matter. Just go to the effing hospital.” My emergency room wait lasted roughly eight hours. But my experience was a breeze compared to what many Americans face should they need medical attention. My capillaries get enflamed (a condition for which I’m not covered) when I think of the fact that millions of children – children! – aren’t covered. This is why I’m happy to see that Salvation Army is holding a free health fair for the homeless and uninsured. It goes beyond information kiosks here. Attendees can receive free blood pressure checks and glucose monitoring as well as flu vaccines. Dr. Charles Bennett (pictured) will be on hand to answer questions related to health. No charge.
There’s been a lot of buzz around Na Koho lately. Their latest release, Set Me Free, reached number one on the KPOA top 10 October 31 after debuting in the second slot. The track “Ooh, Girl” has been getting some serious airplay. They’re playing more offisland gigs, including an upcoming Vegas show. That’s got to be an amazing feeling. “All I wanted was to be a music writer,” says singer and uke player Mark Puailihau. “I never knew this would happen.” It’s easy to see why their appeal is so widespread. Na Koho’s music blends reggae, Hawaiian, rhythm and blues and a few other elements. Theirs is a tasty, melodic, upbeat sound that incorporates some very impressive harmonies. Puailihau says that they perfected their vocal harmonies while serving as Billy Kekona’s backup band. Kekona, he says, taught them how to get “indepth” with their harmonies – a tough thing to do, especially live. They celebrate the release of their debut CD on the South Side this Friday, and on the North Shore Saturday at Charley’s (10pm). Gail Swanson opens Friday’s show. $7. Presale tickets are available for $5 at Love Shack.

The activist princess
Show Your Love
Saturday (Nov. 15), 7pm, Lahaina United Methodist Church
Wednesday (Nov. 19), 1:30pm, County Council Chambers, 200 High St., Wailuku
According to actress/playwright Jennifer Fahrni, the life of Princess Ka’iulani Cleghorn, niece of Queen Lilioukalani, was more than one consisting of tragedy and loss, which is a commonly held conception. The only hapa haole heir to the Hawaiian throne (she was half-Scottish), Ka‘iulani got word of the kingdom’s overthrowing while studying in England. Upon hearing about it she hightailed it stateside to argue her people’s case before the colonial powers, including President Cleveland. Her statements were impassioned and eloquent: “Today, I, a poor weak girl with not one of my people with me and all these ‘Hawaiian’ statesmen against me, have strength to stand up for the rights of my people." Ka‘iulani died in 1899, at age 23; five years after Sanford Dole became president of the “republic.” Jennifer Fahrni and Carol Harvie-Yamaguchi will stage portions of their production Ka ‘iulani, the Island Rose this weekend as part of the Ka‘iulani project. The project aims to celebrate the life and activism of the princess and celebrate the parallels between Hawaiian and Scottish cultures that her story represents. Mana’o Radio cofounder Kathy Collins will read the part of the princess. Saturday’s event will raise money to help cover medical expenses for Julie Wood, an MPD crime scene analyst who has been battling a rare form of cancer for two years. A second production takes place Sunday at 3pm at St. John’s Church in Keokea.
If it hadn’t been for the efforts of a few impassioned individuals, Oneloa/Big Beach would be toast. With golf course jam. Now it’s a state park that’s as pristine as they come (for being so proximal to humans). But the area is not quite in the clear. This Wednesday the County Council Land Use Committee will discuss possible zoning changes that would allow Makena Resort developer Seibu to develop hundreds of acres just mauka of the park. Seibu’s 40-year-old plan involves condos and luxury homes. Opponents argue that the area lacks proper infrastructure and adequate water, is too close to runoff-vulnerable reefs, and that it is rich in cultural and historic sites that ought to be preserved and protected. They question whether conditions the developer is suggesting, “affordable” housing among them, can compensate for all that would be lost. This is one of those opportunities for individuals to come share their mana‘o on the proposed development. It takes, like, two minutes to testify.

SIGNLANGUAGE
CAERIEL CRESTIN SIGN.LANGUAGE.ASTROLOGY@GMAIL.COM
SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) You’ve heard people say, “When it rains, it pours,” but in your case the expression should be, “When it rains, it hurricanes.” You don’t do things halfway, do you? Why settle for just pissing off one person when you could anger or aggravate virtually everyone you know? Well, now the damage is done, and you might as well run with it. Having already vexed everyone can be incredibly freeing. There’ll be time for damage control and making amends next week. For now, enjoy the liberation of having already screwed up, and simply do what you want. You’re not likely to make things much worse, so just enjoy yourself.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) When I go through a rough patch or have a bad day or week, I try to simplify a bit. Instead of focusing on my own problems or troubles, I just try to be kind and thoughtful towards those around me. The idea is that just by putting good stuff out there, I’ll not only feel better, but eventually—through oft circuitous and incredible ways—that kindness will circle back around and make my life a little better, too. Refrain from turning inward this week; there’s no point in dwelling on whatever’s going on. Instead, focus your attention and energy on what’s happening around you. You’ll forget your problems, and by the time you get back to focusing on them, you’ll find that they’re not as big as they were (or as you thought they were).
CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) Since you’re able to see the next few steps that must be taken, you might as well start preparing for them now. I’m surprised you haven’t yet. Perhaps it’s because you’d been hoping things might go differently. By now it should be obvious which way they’re headed. Pretending otherwise would diverge from optimism and delve into delusional. Face the reality you can clearly see. This is a good week to set yourself up to survive and thrive in the new situations you’re moving towards. I know you’re too thoughtful and careful not to. Don’t prove me wrong.
AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) Leave a little bitter in your coffee this week. You want to make sure you have something strong to prep your mouth for all the subtle and varied kinds of sweetness coming your way this week. If your palate is already sullied by a cheap over-sugared coffee flavor, you might miss some of them. That’d be a shame. If you’re able to detect and appreciate them, you’re going to be a lot more capable of manifesting them more often. Your life could be a much sweeter place than it is; make sure you’re in a position to notice and enjoy it.
PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) Don’t be so quick to jump to negative conclusions this week. That elusive person may not be avoiding your calls; the culprit could be a lost phone, not your supposed lack of appeal. Lately you’ve been rushing to the most depressing assumptions. Why assume the worst, when in all probability the reality is nowhere close to that? I know where you’re coming from with this; you don’t want to get your hopes up and then be disappointed. But anticipating disaster only makes it more likely. Give everyone the benefit of the doubt whenever it seems like it may make your world a better place; it will.
ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) Sometimes it takes a bit of trouble or hardship to stir people to action. People start caring more about elections when things aren’t to their liking than they do when everything is just fine. Sometimes it’s your job to light that fire that will get people moving. You’re in a great position to rock the boat that needs rocking, and settle the stomachs of those whose ship is already half-sunk. Weirdly, doing one duty will help you do the other. Your motto this week (and every week, really) should be: Disturb the comfortable, comfort the disturbed. Get to it.
TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) The other night I dreamt that an irrefutable prophecy had decreed my death by murder, but that if I was willing to embrace the inevitability of my fate (by strapping explosives to my chest), I’d be able to take my murderer with me, thereby saving his potential future victims. Of course doing so was a bit of a no-brainer, as it should be for you this week, when a little sacrifice on your part will save a bunch of other people from some turmoil and heartache. Since what you’re being asked to give up is nowhere near as extreme as your very life, there’s no real excuse (except selfishness) to not do it.
GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) A watched pot never boils, right? Well, a lot of things won’t happen if you put too much attention and pressure on them, or at least they won’t happen the way you hope. Sometimes you just have to give the situation a little space and trust and hope for the best. If it doesn’t play out the way you wanted, chances are it wouldn’t have even if you’d watched it like a hawk. At least this way everyone had an easier time of it and you gave things a chance to unfold ideally in a natural, unforced way. Since that’s the only way it could have happened, realistically, it’s better that you at least gave it that chance, no?
CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) Even in our incredibly interconnected world, an ocean is a great divide. It’s not much further to cross the Atlantic than to cross the U.S., but it somehow feels a lot further. You could, after all, theoretically walk across the country, but there’s no way you’d get over that ocean without a big machine to carry you. Similarly, the things separating you from where you want to go are also real obstacles, but I’m more concerned about their psychological component. You have ways to feel connected with what’s on the other side of that ocean, even if you can’t realistically get there right this second. Please exercise them.
LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) When pessimism masquerades as pure realism, it’s difficult to shake off. You get worried that being optimistic under those circumstances amounts to being delusional. That’s not precisely true, though. There’s a bright side to every situation and a light at the end of nearly every tunnel. You can focus on that without losing sight of how perilous or difficult it might be to get there. There’s no need to imagine hope where there is none (and by all means beware of that). However, obsessively focusing on that thread of hope, no matter how slender, is the best way to get to a place where things don’t feel so tenuous.
VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) Despite all the ways we have to filter it out, advertising is so pervasive that it invades our consciousness anyway. In fact, like an antibiotic-resistant virus, much of it has become more insidious, and harder to detect and defend against. How much of your perspective is twisted by the influences you can barely see? Rather more of it than you think, I suspect. However, this week is likely to shed a different kind of light on certain powerful forces manipulating you, so that you can finally see them more or less clearly. Once you can perceive them, you can easily shut them out. In the name of your own clear judgment, please do.
LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) With the economy in such rough shape, I don’t envy President Obama the job he has ahead of him, trying to patch things back up. We have so many fundamental problems impacting the daily lives of virtually every American—like a dearth of jobs or affordable health care—that he’ll be hard-pressed to do anything but just hold things together, let alone make them dramatically better. Yet he must try—as you should, too. The odds may be against you, but you have a chance to do some good here. It’s the right thing to do, and—it’s your job, now.
