Last week, I humbly asked tourism officials to stop flogging the aloha spirit as though it were a magic visitor-attracting switch that can be flipped at will. But they’re not the only ones tossing the phrase around. In a November 16 press release about the Countywide Plan, Councilman Sol Kaho‘ohalahala included “emphasize the importance of the Aloha Spirit” as the last in a series of bullet points (most of the others were related to specific stuff like building codes and renewable energy). To reiterate: I’m not against the aloha spirit; I think it’s a (potentially) cool concept. The problem is it’s too vague, or, more accurately, has been flagrantly misused. Here’s what I mean: Do a Google search for “aloha spirit” and see what comes up. One of the first hits I got was a sweet little acrostic poem credited to Auntie Pilahi Paki: “Akahai, meaning kindness to be expressed with tenderness/Lokahai, meaning unity, to be expressed with harmony/Olu’olu, meaning agreeable, to be expressed with pleasantness/Ha’aha’a, meaning humility, to be expressed with modesty/Ahonui, meaning patience, to be expressed with perseverance.” Right under that? Info about the “Spirit of Aloha dinner show” at the Walt Disney World resort. I’m willing to believe the County was referring to the poem in its press release. But I’m pretty certain the Disney version is more what the Visitors Bureau has in mind….

LOCAL Want to know where the Furlough Friday saga stands now that Gov. Lingle has proposed dipping into the “rainy day” fund? (A move Lingle defended by saying “it’s raining on the kids now,” though perhaps a different liquid would be more apropos.) Take it away state Board of Education Chair Garrett Toguchi, quoted in a November 21 AP dispatch: “We have a pre-agreement agreement.” In the same report, Senate President Colleen Hanabusa claims she’s had multiple teachers tell her they didn’t know the deal they voted on would cut instructional days, which could mean several things, all of them bad. Honestly, assigning blame here is so easy there’s really no sport in it. Meanwhile, another Friday approaches…. Add humiliation to the list of tactics being used on Oahu to prevent drunk driving.

Add the fact that the trees—which come from Oregon and Washington—transport invasive species and that Hawaii’s ag inspectors are overtaxed as it is, plus the fact that we are literally surrounded by beautiful flora on which ornaments and popcorn strands can easily be hung, and, well, sorry—the Grinch got this one right.

cited for DUI on its Web site (honolulupd. org)—before they’ve been convicted of anything. One attorney, quoted in the Honolulu Star-Bulletin, compared the electronic “wall of shame” to The Scarlet Letter. (Manini difference: 17th century extramarital affairs didn’t typically cause fatal car accidents.) One thing’s for sure: with vocal anti-drunk driving groups squaring off against equally vocal privacy and due process advocates—and a dash of voyeuristic schadenfreude thrown in for good measure—this’ll be a story worth following…. I am not, I should preemptively emphasize, anti-Christmas. Some of my fondest childhood memories involve the sharp smell of a freshly cut spruce placed next to a crackling fire (back when I was young enough to ignore a blatant fire hazard). But. We’re living in a time when sacrifice is no longer a noble act—it’s a necessity. So how about revaluating the resource-sucking practice of putting more than 100,000 trees in refrigerated boats and shipping them across the Pacific, so they can be placed in people’s living rooms for a few weeks and then discarded. (The

This week’s story, “Earth: Too Big to Fail?” (pg. 7) lays out four key steps the writers— David Lillard and Glenn Scherer—say must be taken to curb climate change. One of them is “institute a global Marshall Plan,” a reference to the rebuilding of post-World War II Europe. Now, Lillard and Scherer argue, we have to “bail out the developing world.” But some use a different, more loaded word: “reparations.” A November 11 Rolling Stone article titled “Climate Rage” outlines the argument: The developed nations (most notably the United States) created the crisis, while the rest of the world is facing the worst consequences. According to reparation proponents, vague assurances and strings-attached aid aren’t enough. Addressing the U.N. in June, Angelica Navarro, a negotiator from Bolivia, put it plainly: “Millions of people… are suffering from the effects of a problem to which they did not contribute….We cannot and will not give up our rightful claim to a fair share of atmospheric space on the promise that, at some future stage, technology will be provided to us.” Sometimes real leadership means admitting you broke something— and doing what it takes to fix it. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/coconut19

Earth: Too Big to Fail? The upcoming summit in Copenhagen might be our last chance to get serious about climate change. Here are four suggestions to save the world

W

hen our economy tanked last year, politicians told us that our nation’s financial institutions were “too big to fail.” Now, as world leaders prepare for a critically important climate summit in Copenhagen, we need to ask: Is Earth too big to fail?

by many as inadequate. What’s needed immediately are fresh ideas that will break the logjam before Copenhagen—a great and radical compromise that deals decisively and honestly with the climate change threat, but also allows the fossil fuel industry, and the rest of the U.S. and world economy,

These proposals will likely anger many. But sticking with the current crop of platitudes is getting us no closer to a solution. You know the back-story: scientific studies pile up monthly warning of a potential collapse of our planet’s human life support systems. Most recently, researchers calculated that the Arctic icecap—one of Earth’s largest geographic features—could disappear in ten summers. That meltdown might unleash global weather changes that destabilize agriculture in a world where a billion people already go hungry, thereby threatening food riots and fanning the fires of global terror. Meanwhile, UCLA scientists have looked back 20 million years to find atmospheric carbon dioxide levels as high as today. Global temperatures then were 5 to 10 degrees Fahrenheit higher. Sea levels were 75 to 120 feet deeper. And Antarctica was nearly ice-free. Clearly, we are reshaping our “planet into something we have never seen in all of human history,” says climatologist Jonathan Foley. Still, a Senate climate bill remains stalled, and its cap-and-trade mechanisms are seen

solution, but triage. It’s a stopgap measure to buy us some time: at a cost roughly equal to current U.S. corn subsidies, sequestering coal carbon emissions underground would give us a few decades to transition into a renewable-energy world, and give coal companies time to transform into 21st century energy companies. Repurpose petroleum. Oil isn’t renewable. Every barrel we burn for energy is wasted—it’s like burning money. Rather, let’s transition from using oil as fuel and turn it into high-quality plastics and other durable goods. Let’s fund research into next-generation plastics and other petrochemical-based materials designed for reuse in an endless loop. Already, scientists at the University of Washington are using

to thrive. Such a compromise is possible, though its provisions will likely cause environmentalists and fiscal conservatives alike to fall out of their chairs. Here are four bold measures for breaking the climate deadlock: Put tens of billions into clean-coal. Coal largely powers our nation. That is current reality. And clean coal is still a fantasy, but not long ago so was a trip to the moon. Money is the answer. It is already technologically possible to remove 90 percent of the carbon from coal emissions. However, according to a July 2009 Harvard study, this thorough carbon-cleansing nearly doubles the cost of making electricity. So why not offer federal loans to energy producers to cover the difference? A carbon tax would pay back that loan. It can be done: Norway is already sequestering carbon beneath the North Sea, and sequestration sites are being identified across America. This is no permanent

Current economic and climate realities dictate that we bail out the developing world. Unless we bring the poor out of poverty through clean energy, all of the developed world’s carbon emission reduction efforts will go for naught. Exporting sustainableenergy technologies to the developing world will help end poverty and dramatically boost our economy. When the U.S. rebuilt Europe and Japan after World War II, skeptics called it economic suicide. Today the U.S.-EuropeanJapanese trading partnership is the strongest, freest economic engine the world has known. Likewise, investment in Africa today will create thriving free markets there tomorrow. Adapt now. No matter how successfully we implement the first three steps, too much greenhouse gas is already aloft. We must prepare for some climate-caused upheaval. Intensive cooperative public-private planning is needed to anticipate the extreme weather, sea rise, wildfire, insect, disease and other damage done by climate change.

petroleum-based plastics to make solar cells; other researchers are using them in highquality building materials. Following the “cradle to cradle” ideas of architect William McDonough, manufacturers are inventing ways to design shoes, cars—even factories— to be dismantled and reused. Such change could take decades, but an infusion of investment will quicken it. Institute a global Marshall Plan.

hese proposals will likely anger many. But sticking with the current crop of platitudes is getting us no closer to a solution. And we’ve run out of time. Hear this recent warning from U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon: “Our foot is stuck on the accelerator and we are heading towards an abyss.” We are speeding headlong into climate chaos. A change in approach must come now. Impossible? Not in the America we know. ■

Climate Change: How Will it Impact Hawaii?

I

n June, the White House released a report titled Global Climate Change Impacts in the United States. More than a dozen government agencies and several universities and research teams collaborated on the report, which was an overdue follow-up to a 2000 climate change assessment that the Bush Administration tried to suppress. The report breaks down the impacts of climate change by region; here are a few key areas where Hawaii will be affected: Less fresh water: “Most island

6

November 26, 2009

communities in the Pacific and Caribbean have limited sources of freshwater. Many islands depend on freshwater lenses below the surface, which are recharged by precipitation. Changes in precipitation…are thus a cause of great concern. Sea-level rise also affects islands water supplies by causing saltwater to contaminate the freshwater lens and by causing an increased frequency of flooding due to storm high tides. Water pollution (such as from agriculture or sewage), exacerbated by storms and floods, can contaminate freshwater supplies, affecting public health.”

Stronger storms: “With further warming, hurricane and typhoon peak wind intensities and rainfall are likely to increase, which, combined with sea-level rise, would cause higher storm surge levels.” Loss of endangered species: “Flooding will become more frequent and coastal land will be permanently lost as the sea inundates low-lying areas and the shorelines erode. Loss of land will affect living things in coastal ecosystems…[T]he Northwestern Hawaiian Islands, which are low-lying and therefore at great risk from

rising sea level, have a high concentration of threatened and endangered species, some of which exist nowhere else.” Decimation of coral reefs: “Coral reefs are particularly sensitive to the impacts of climate change as even small increases in water temperature can cause coral bleaching. Ocean acidification due to rising carbon dioxide levels poses an additional threat to coral reefs and rich ecosystems they support.” ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/sidebar19

hris was unflinchingly garrulous and outspoken. Rolling a piano through the Ritz-Carlton’s hallways in Kapalua, it seemed as though he knew almost everyone employed there. Over time, he worked at Leilani’s and Pineapple Hill restaurants, Drexel Brothers Construction and helped stage events with Ehman Productions, Showpower and ESPN. Chris worked as a production assistant on Xterra, the Mercedes Championship at Kapalua, Kaanapali Classic, Skins Games at Wailea and the Sony Open on Oahu, and was also involved in TV and feature film projects. His best friend, Blythe Douglas, met Harstad 20 years ago, playing Frisbee on Kaanapali’s Dig-Me Beach. They often bodysurfed and enjoyed freestyle beach Frisbee together, and Douglas reached out to help Chris with medical appointments or other obligations so he wouldn’t have to depend on the MEO bus schedule. “Harstad was famous for quoting, ‘If

you don’t have your health, you don’t have anything,’” said Douglas. “He was grateful for just the simplest things in life. We are grateful to have had him in our life. He was family to us.” It often took Harsted days to recover after a grand mal seizure. Some years back, I saw Chris for the first time in several months. He had suffered a seizure while cooking at home, and his entire forearm was scarred from second-degree burns. In late 2004, I lent my Ford F-250 truck, “Big Blue,” to a friend for a weekend move. In a lapse in judgment with dramatic consequences, he asked Harstad to drive my truck while he drove his own. Watching a Sunday morning football game on TV, I was interrupted by a frantic phone call. Rushing to the scene in my wife’s car, I arrived at North Kihei Road to find police, ambulance, my friend sitting at the roadside with his head buried in his hands and my truck crumpled into a beachside kiawe tree. Harstad had slipped into a seizure while driving, rear-ended a few cars, crossed the center-line and drifted off the road. While the truck was totaled, amazingly Harstad escaped with minor injuries. His bicycle was his preferred mode of transportation, and he rode daily. He was adamant about protecting bicyclists by ensuring that cars didn’t encroach in designated bike lanes, sometimes yelling at those who did. “I told him he was a Bike Nazi, you know, like the Soup Nazi on Seinfeld,” his brother Mike told me. “He just laughed at me.” Bicycling on the curving road near Honolua Bay a few years back, a vehicle swerved into Harstad’s bike lane and nearly hit him. He hollered at the driver, who stopped, got out and came at him with a machete. With traffic stopped, Harstad managed to put the attacker in a headlock, at which point the driver’s girlfriend came out and started kicking him. Matters were settled in court some months later. Mike came back to Hawaii in July 2005, when Chris underwent complicated brain surgery in Honolulu to try to control what prescription drugs could not. Symptoms may be controlled by medication for many with epilepsy, wrote Claudine San Nicholas in a Maui News feature about Harstad’s operation. But Chris fell into a smaller percentage, roughly one-third, whose maladies were not abated. Thus, Chris was willing to undergo a lobectomy, or temporal lobe resection, after extensive testing to locate the area of the brain responsible for his seizures.

West Mauian carved his own niche, despite hardships he business card he handed me many years ago read, “West Maui Big Kahuna,” fitting for the tall, athletic Colorado native who moved to Maui in 1988, following an older brother who lived in Lahaina. I met Christopher Harstad during my previous incarnation as owner/ operator of Grand Wazoo Piano Moving, and he often helped provide muscle for deliveries. Chris would always arrive by bicycle, always shirtless. In fact, Chris never owned a car, and with good reason. Soon after arriving on Maui, Harstad had his first epileptic seizure. Initially, he experienced them once or twice a month. But despite medication, their frequency increased to two or three times weekly. His illness made it challenging for him to hold steady employment and provide for himself. Yet he lived with great passion— for educating others about his disease, for advocating bike lane safety and for beach and ocean sports. Chris Harstad died earlier this month after suffering another seizure. In an emotional memorial service two weeks ago, family and friends waded into the shore break at D.T. Fleming’s beach—his favorite bodysurfing spot—to spread his ashes. “Chris really connected with Maui, really loved it there,” said brother Mike, who built custom homes on the Valley Isle before moving to Washington state. Chris was the seventh of nine kids, and Mike said he got into a bit of trouble before moving to Maui. “He was sort of the black sheep,” said Mike.

The Maui News article was accompanied by a photo of Harstad, broadly smiling, with his dark hair shorn in a buzz cut and 40 metal staples in a large upside-down U-shaped incision above his left ear. Harstad was optimistic about a better life following the surgery—but it was not to be.

wo years ago, Chris finally received a full Social Security disability judgment for his illness. He also found help through Section 8 housing, and the Food Stamps program. He applied for and received a medical marijuana card to help moderate strong side effects from his anti-seizure medicine, but could not maintain the cost. Chris called me periodically over the past year, imploring me to write a story helping to educate police and first responders about medical alert bracelets. Apparently, he had a post-seizure event where he left his home one night disoriented and unclothed, and was tasered by police, who must have thought him to be on drugs and dangerous. Chris was deeply upset by this event. He didn’t want to condemn the Maui Police Department for what happened, only to shine a light on the special needs of those who wear medical ID bracelets. “He wanted to make sure the police were aware of this issue,” said brother Mike. “He designed a poster with a peace sign on it, and he wanted it posted in the MPD locker room.” He wanted badly for his side of the story to be told, added Douglas, and to emphasize that taser guns should not be abused. I told Douglas I felt a bit guilty I hadn’t always returned Chris’s messages, or found time to bring his story into print—until now. “I think we’ve all felt that way at some point,” Douglas replied. “Lately [his wife] Clarissa and I asked ourselves, ‘did we do enough?’” As we gather with our ‘ohana for Thanksgiving, we can be grateful for many things, including good health. And as waves thunder from the first big ocean swell of the season, you can bet that riding on one of them is the spirit of the West Maui Big Kahuna, Christopher Harstad. ■

IRAQI MILITARY INTELLIGENCE

PAINFUL IRONY

The first line of “defense” at the 400 Iraqi police checkpoints in Baghdad are small wands with antennas that supposedly detect explosives, but which U.S. officials say are about as useful as Ouija boards. The Iraqi official in charge, Maj. Gen. Jehad al-Jabiri, is so enamored of the devices, according to a November New York Times dispatch, that when American experts repeatedly showed the rods’ failures in test after test, he blamed the results on testers’ lack of “training.” The Iraqi government has purchased 1,500 of the ADE 651s from its manufacturer, ATSC Ltd. of the UK, at prices ranging from $16,000 to $60,000 each. The suicide bombers who killed 155 in downtown Baghdad on Oct. 25 passed two tons of explosives through at least one ADE-651-equipped checkpoint.

Daredevil Scottish stunt bicyclist Danny MacAskill, whose electrifying feats are featured on popular YouTube videos, suffered a broken collarbone in October when he tripped on a curb while out for a walk in downtown Edinburgh.

WHAT IS THE SOUND OF ONE STATUS UPDATING? Jigme Wangchuk, 11, was a student at St. Peter’s School in Boston when he was enthroned in November by a Buddhist sect in India’s Darjeeling district as its high priest, covering territory extending to neighboring Nepal and Bhutan. He will live in seclusion in his monastery, except for contact with Facebook friends he made while in Boston.

NOW ABOUT THOSE TOILET SEATS… An unprecedented toilet-building spree has taken hold in India over the last two years, spurred by a government campaign embraced by young women: “No Toilet, No Bride” (i.e., no marriage unless the male’s dowry includes indoor plumbing). About 665 million people in India lack access to toilets, according to an October Washington Post dispatch.

FLYING BUNNIES! The town of Waiau, New Zealand, had once again planned an annual rabbit-carcasstossing contest, to a chorus of complaints from animal rights activists concerned that children not associate dead animals with fun. (In New Zealand, rabbits are cropdestroying pests, doing an estimated $16 million in damage annually, but nonetheless, the town canceled the contest.)

CRIMINALLY GOOD HEALTH CARE Britain’s High Court ruled in September that inmate Denis Roberts, 59, a murderer, was entitled to free surgery to remove a birthmark, while the National Health Service in August granted a free prescription for Viagra to recidivist sex offender Roger Martin, 71, whose latest conviction, last year, involved an 11-year-old boy.

WHEN JEBEDIAH MET SALLY “Bonnet books” are a “booming new subcategory of the romance genre,” reported The Wall Street Journal in September, describing “G-rated” Amish love stories that sell well among outside readers but have found an even more avid audience among Amish women themselves. The typical bestseller is by a non-Amish writer, perhaps involving a woman inside the community who falls in love with an outsider. In one book described by the Journal, the lovers “actually kiss a couple of times in 326 pages.”

SILVER LININGS The epic drought that hit central Texas this year, causing a 30-foot drop in the water level of Lake Travis near Austin, also helped police solve three stolen-vehicle cases. Of the three exposed at the bottom of the lake in July was one, with key still in the ignition, missing since 1988. (2) Emergency-room doctors writing in the Archives of Surgery in September reported that light alcohol-drinkers survived brain injuries better than either non-drinkers or heavy drinkers. ■

Re the November 19 feature “Invasive Species�: In the past, Maui has tried the “eradication� option of euthanizing as many feral cats as the Humane Society and volunteers could catch, but the feral population didn’t go down—in fact it increased. The feline evolutionary instinct senses population deceases and their reproductive patterns become heightened. Killing them off will only end up increasing their numbers. It sounds strange but has been scientifically proven in many areas of the U.S. and Europe where this same issue is happening. The most important, vital thing that we can do for the humans and the cats is to actively donate and volunteer to programs like 9th Life, Feline Foundation and Maui Humane Society (feral feline sector) to help spay and neuter as many feral—and tame— cats as possible. These organizations will provide you with traps to borrow and help you get the cats spayed and neutered for free. There seems to be more people that sit back and complain about this problem than actual participants helping to fix it. Please get educated and involved to help our situation! Everyone will benefit in the end.

Many people have pet rats but no sane person would advocate not killing feral rats. Why oh why do we let the minority of fuzzy-thinking people encourage feral cats? Cats carry the same diseases as rats (and some other ones, too) and are destructive, filthy wild animals that are devastating our bird populations. Those who feed and shelter feral cats are nothing more than cat hoarders who make their neighbors’ lives miserable. They have to be stopped. Humanely kill these pests, and mandate that all cats must be spayed and neutered until we get this scourge under control.

PaiaGirl, via mauitime.com Thanks for a thoughtful, well-written article on this subject. Usually this debate seems to be between government suits who want to kill all the cats and crazy cat people. I think you sum it up well though: no one has an answer.

It wasn’t me, via mauitime.com It’s a little disturbing that the guy cherishes his orange juice more than his own child. You can have my daughter, but hands off my OJ.

I want a piece of that, via mauitime.com Re the November 19 Picks of the Week: Ynez Tongson wrote: “In a few weeks women will become slaves trapped in the kitchen and be forced to pretend to be happy about the accomplishments of all those other kids who aren’t theirs.� You’re a writer. You should know better than to write in stereotypes. You’re trying way too hard to be clever. Also, this: “Go shopping, you deserve it.� Gross.

Ynez responds: Thanks for pointing that out. I felt terrible for writing that women were slaves in the kitchen only during the holidays. It sickened me to use that overused stereotype. What I wanted to write was that in developed countries, two-thirds to three-quarters of domestic work is performed by women. Women do

between 75 and 95 percent of all meal prep and cleanup. This work is, of course, unpaid and usually done after having worked all day. But then I would have been over my word count. Finally, I don’t see what’s so gross about implying that a woman should go ahead and spend some of her hard-earned money on herself.

ATTENTION HOLIDAY DO-GOODERS: LOCAL NON-PROFITS NEED YOUR HELP!

A

sk the average man on the street what charity he’s supporting this year, and the answer you’ll almost certainly get is: “me.” Things are tough—as you don’t need to be reminded—and most of us are circling the wagons, focusing on our own wellbeing. And yet, in these lean times, local charities and nonprofits need help more than ever. It’s a cruel irony that as demand for their services increases, generosity dries up. So—if you can, give. It doesn’t have to be a huge chunk of cash (though nobody’s gonna turn that down). It could be a few cans of soup, some forgotten item shoved in the corner of your garage or just a few hours of your time. A little altruism won’t undo the global financial meltdown. But it could rescue a stray cat, give a kid a safe place to go after school, get someone off drugs or help your neighbor cook a Thanksgiving dinner. And that might be even better. ➔

Keeping your dollars on Maui has a big impact OK, you’ve given all you can to charity—now what? How do you continue to have a positive impact on the community even as you spend money on yourself and your loved ones? The short answer: shop locally. According to data from the economic analysis ďŹ rm Civic Economics, 68 cents of every dollar spent at a locally owned business stays local, meaning the money circulates to other establishments rather than sailing off to the Mainland or some foreign destination. By contrast, only 43 cents of every dollar spent at a chain store sticks around. That extra 25 cents adds up fast. How fast? Civic Economics estimates that if every reader of MauiTime promised to spend $100 holiday shopping dollars at locally owned businesses, the net effect would be $15 million staying right here. That’s over $2 million more than if the money was spent at big box behemoths. It’s easy to feel hopeless about the economic situation, to throw up your hands and say “there’s nothing I can do.â€? So here’s something you can do. Right now.

How not to BBQ a turkey

O

n Maui, where balmy weather never quits, the prospect of cooking your Thanksgiving turkey outdoors—and thus avoiding turning your house into an ovenheated inferno—is appealing. The obvious choice is the barbeque, especially if you’ve got access to a nice gas grill. But beware: the journey to a perfectly BBQ’d bird is littered with unseen hazards that can make the centerpiece of your feast a charred, inedible blob or, worse, a genuine hazard. Here are a few tips to help you avert disaster:

DON’T fire up all your burners. If your grill has multiple sets of burners, use only one side. Otherwise, you’ll wind up with a half-burned, half-raw turkey that’ll cause even the dog to turn up his nose. DON’T shove a huge bird into a tiny barbeque. It’s important for your turkey to have adequate room to heat evenly and be rotated easily; you also need to be able to completely close the lid to keep the grill temperature consistent (about 350 degrees). DON’T leave the grill unattended. Fat is highly flammable and can drip onto the burners, causing your Butterball to morph into a raging fireball. Always stay close and look for warning signs (loud sizzling, excessive smoke), and have a hose or fire extinguisher handy just in case. DON’T overdo it. The temptation to kill meat-borne illnesses is understandable, but no amount of gravy can compensate for leathery, dried-out meat. Stick a thermometer about an inch into the breast, and when it reads 165 degrees, you’re good to go. - Jacob Shafer

Annie

I

don’t think Little Orphan Annie and I would get along. People with her kind of optimism and unwavering belief in the innate goodness of humanity have always unnerved me. It’s not that I’m a pessimist; I consider myself a realist. My glass isn’t half empty—it’s in a cold, dark room curled up in the fetal position. If it’s true that “you’re never fully dressed without a smile,” then I go out naked a lot. But maybe in this hard knock life, a little Annie is what we need. And Maui OnStage and the Maui Academy of Performing Arts are here to give it to us. Of course, part of the play’s charm is its location. Something about the Historic Iao Theater tells you, “I think I’m gonna like it here.” Just in case you’re unclear as to the plot of Annie, it’s a Depression-era (not to be confused with recession-era) story set in New York, in which an orphan, that’d be Annie, sets out to find her real parents and escape an oppressive orphanage. Along the way, she finds a dog she names Sandy and is welcomed into the Warbucks’ mansion. Devious scheming, comical mishaps and lots of talented singing by adults and children ensue. By the end of the play, some musically inclined homeless people would “like to thank Herbert Hoover,” greedy plots are foiled, pasts are revealed

Nothing like a bunch of parentless children to lift your spirits.

and a certain orphan is adopted. The tale is so joyous, it’ll melt even the iciest heart. The title role will be played by Seabury Hall freshman Tyler Charbonneau, who

will don Annie’s signature red hair over her own blonde ‘do. While their hair colors differ, it’s obvious Tyler shares Annie’s spunk and drive. Baritone Bob Willis will

play the booming Daddy Warbucks. Miss Hannigan, the luscious lush who loves alcohol as much as she hates children, will be played by soprano Diedre Tegarden. In addition, orphans were added to the story, so more little girls could be involved in the play. Brian Swasey, who’s actually from N.Y.C., directs and choreographs, while Bob Willis does musical direction. Set design is by Caro Walker, costumes by Kathleen Schulz and lighting design is orchestrated by Mark Collmer. If you think “something is missing” from this line-up, never fear, I didn’t forget Sandy. This year, Sandy will be played by Walter J. Dog of Wailuku. If you need to give out presents or a “New Deal for Christmas,” tickets to Annie are available at the Maui Onstage Box Office, online at mauionstage.com and at If the Shoe Fits and Lava Java. Tickets to the two Saturday matinees (December 5 and 12) will be discounted if you bring a donation of two cans of food for the Maui Food Bank. That way, not only will you get to watch an awesome show on the cheap, you’ll also be helping the community. Because in a world filled with Miss Hannigans, Roosters and Lilys, we all need a little more Orphan Annie in the world, if only to make us smile and let us believe that maybe you’ll soon be set on easy street and that the sun will, indeed, come out tomorrow. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/a&e19

Film Critique

by Barry Wurst II barry@mauitime.com

Vampire Weakened New ‘Twilight’ film doesn’t suck as bad as the first one. But it still sucks New Moon

★★★★★

Oh you, always trying to bite my jugular.

Rated PG-13/130 min.

A

year ago, I gave Twilight a generous one-star review, which inspired a teacher at Kihei Charter School to urge his class of young students to write me a response, which they did. I was informed that the MauiTime inbox received an outpouring of e-mails, all of them passionate and most declaring that I was wrong about their movie. Among the highlights: “Just because you’re a critic doesn’t mean you have to be so critical!” and “If you have never made a movie, you are in no position to be criticizing the special effects!” My favorite came from possibly the lone boy in the class, who wrote: “You are an awesome critic and your review on Twilight is awesome.” I appreciated each of their comments to no end and I went into the sequel with an open mind…only to be let down again.

A year later, Edward the vampire (Robert Pattinson, still resembling an undead James Dean) decides to break up with Bella (Kristen Stewart), who turns to her friend Jacob (Taylor Lautner) for comfort, only to

find he has a big, hairy secret. The director this time is Chris Weitz, who has made some improvements over the genuinely bad original: instead of every scene shot in an ugly blue filter, the cinematography is lush and beautiful. The composer has changed and the score is now lyrical instead of dull. And the special effects are excellent. Unfortunately, all the other problems are the same, making this a different kind of bad movie: one that occasionally makes you think it will find its footing, but that falls off the cliff instead. Stewart is a big reason why these films don’t work—her one-note, nearly emotionless performance is like a black hole that sucks the life out of everything around it. Pattinson has a much smaller part this time, but his goofy brooding and slow-motion walks are still unintentionally hilarious. Lautner is the most appealing of the trio, though his acting is as sub-par as everyone else’s. The pacing is more slack than before. The third act, which takes place in Italy, is

supposed to be the film’s highlight. It’s not. Without giving away any of the story, we get an encounter with additional vampires, a fight scene that looks like an outtake from The Matrix, Dakota Fanning in a weird cameo and a lot of vampire dialogue that sounds like imitation Anne Rice. I liked the two scenes set in a movie theater, which not only tease bad action movies but the current craze of zombie flicks. The rumble between two monstrous beasts is as exciting as the polar bear battle in Weitz’s The Golden Compass. And the cliffhanger ending will cause lots of intheater swooning. But in the end, Twlight has a long way to go. On the other hand, the theater I saw this in (which had only one other male present) was full of women, young and old, who cheered enthusiastically whenever one of the young studs got a close-up or took off his shirt. So maybe the formula is working just fine. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/film19

An in-depth epitaph that also pays homage to the production efforts that never fully materialized, this stunningly produced documentary is a celebration of Jackson’s life, made with fans in mind—a non-critical look at the last life and times of one of the greatest performers of our age. 120 min.

There’s no better feeling than being in a barrel. People spend their whole lives trying to feel this good—they look for it in sex, drugs and money‌ all meaningless. Once you get barreled, you’ll never want to go ba ck. The Save Honolua Coalition wants to ensure that people can continue to get barreled in the Honolua area by maintaining public access and revitalizing the ecosystem of Honolua Ahupu’a. And you can help them with their noble goal by‌watching movies, as the Maui Film Festival presents A Surf Triple Feature benefiting Save Honolua. For $10 you’ll get to watch The Drifter (Rob Machado’s adventures in the Indonesian Ocean), Dear & Yonder (daring and talented women share their surf stories) and Faces of the Bay (footage of Honolua, in all its glory). Rumor has it that Rob Machado might be there. But even if he isn’t, you’ll get to see him on the big screen. Mauifilmfestival.com [Ynez Tongson]

According to comedian Gabriel Iglesias, there are six levels of fatness. From lightest to heaviest they are: big, healthy, husky, fluffy, DAMN! and OH HELL NO! Is this a step toward size acceptance, or a form of sizeism? See, this is why no one ever invites me a comedy show—instead of giggling as Iglesias relates how a little dancing makes him sweat, I’m wondering if he’s making a statement about how American culture does not cater to the needs of larger people. When Iglesias tells his audience that hearing his girlfriend coo “chocolate cake� over the phone works like phone sex, I wonder if he’s aggressively mocking himself to soften the mocking of others, or if he’s just trying to get a laugh. I don’t know. But people with a sense of humor tell me that Iglesias is funny, and I believe them. So check him out, as his Too Hot, Too Fluffy tour hits the Valley Isle. Mauiarts.org [YT]

The Beat Goes On

Hot to Trot

Dec. 3 (Thursday), 8pm, Maui Theatre, Lahaina

Nov. 26 (Thursday), 7am for the 16.1-mile run; 8am for the 8.6-mile run, Rice Park, Kula

True Story: When I first heard of The English Beat, I thought they were a band of guerilla warriors who attacked typos. To my dismay, I learned that they aren’t, in fact, a band of brave editors protecting the populace from bad grammar. But they are a pretty awesome band that fuses ska, pop, soul, reggae and punk. Their lyrics cover a range of topics including love, unity and politics. And get this—they formed in Birmingham in 1978, during a time of high unemployment and social upheaval. Kinda makes you wonder what kind of music is being made now, right? Hopefully it’s as killer as The English Beat. I think their name comes from the fact they are a) English; and b) they’ve got sick beats. But, let me hold on to my pipedreams of revolutionary proofreaders, will you? 661-9913 or mauitheatre.com [YT]

Thanksgiving kicks off the season of food indulgence, which ends on New Year’s Eve when we make those shaky resolutions to lose the extra pounds. Begin the holidays on a good note (and earn the right to stuff your face) at the annual Turkey Trot for Fun race in Kula. Not only will you be warming up your appetite, but the event helps support the Maui Food Bank (remember to bring canned goods for the needy). The challenge is not to be the fastest, but to accurately predict your finishing time. Prizes, which go to the three people in each race who come closest to their time (no watches allowed!), include a turkey, ham and pumpkin pie, bringing us back to where we started. [John Law]

Horoscopes

sign.language.astrology@gmail.com SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) Tying up loose ends and cleaning up messes always feels good. You know this, and yet somehow it’s all too easy for you Archers to still leave things unresolved, and cluttering up your life. Motivating yourself to bring closure to some of this shit might be difďŹ cult, but try to remember how good you’ll feel—and how free—once you do. Take a cue from those ever-industrious Virgos, roll up your sleeves, and get to it. Since this week presents at least a couple prime opportunities to ďŹ x up your life with less muss and fuss than usual, I suggest you take advantage of them.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) In some ways you’re very much a hothouse ower; in the environs where you’re comfortable, you shine beautifully and are able to grow, ourish, and thrive. Taken out of that sultry, sunny comfort zone, you soon wither. Of course, you can’t stay in your cozy glass-walled house forever; events and people draw you out into colder, less hospitable situations. Tap into the robust, rugged, stubborn part of yourself, even if it’s tricky or uncomfortable. You have to learn to survive, or even thrive, in these—and this week you should get opportunity to practice exactly that.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) Ignorance may be bliss, but knowledge is power. This week is about deciding whether you’d rather be happy in the dark, or clued in but possibly miserable. If you go out of your way to seek information, you’ll have the power to act on that information, but may not want to. However, if you put blinders on, you’ll be at the mercy of whatever happens—but probably pretty content until it does, at which point things could really go either way. I’m not going to tell you which to choose, but I will advise this: if you choose blissful ignorance, remember to enjoy it while you have it. Luxuriate in not knowing. And if you decide you’d rather be knowledgeable and powerful, make sure you exercise that power—or else what’s the point?

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) Don’t wrestle with a pig. You’ll just get dirty and the pig will have a blast. Face it, you’re out of your element here, and the hog would like nothing better than for you to dive into the mud and go another round or three. This isn’t a ďŹ ght you can really win, so I advise simply staying out of it. If you really can’t, I suggest you get ready to get dirty, play dirty, and play rough. This could all be fun—but not if you’re expecting a fair, polite, and genteel confrontation. Get down in the mud, or stay out altogether—there’s no in-between this week.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) Remember, everyone wants love, more love than they know how to ask for. Don’t let your own insecurities get in the way of giving them some. Of course, you need to think about ways to offer affection, adoration, and compassion that aren’t creepy, gross, or threatening. However, assume that most people would welcome sweetness from you, as long it didn’t have any strings attached, and didn’t come with a whole load of baggage. You have plenty of love to offer the people around you. Start slow, but you should get into the habit of expressing it freely, and often. It’ll come back in kind.

Seriously, the whole romantic fantasy about “one� soulmate out there for everyone, while occasionally comforting, is mostly a source of heartache, failed relationships, and delusional nonsense. I’m thrilled to break it to you: there is no one perfect person out there for you. As long as you choose to believe there is, everyone you get involved with, no matter how great they are, will always make you feel like you’re settling. On the bright side, even though there’s no one perfect person, there are many highly compatible ones out there. Go “settle� for one of those.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) It isn’t your weak will that’s keeping you from quitting smoking, losing weight, or being successful. It’s your strong will, combined with a bad habit of telling yourself the wrong stories. Quitting smoking is actually incredibly easy, if you believe it is. But as long as you tell yourself how hard or impossible it is, it’ll be exactly that difďŹ cult. If you don’t actually want to do this shit, and you’re just making it out to be hard to get out of it, that’s one thing. But if you actually want to succeed here, all you have to do is start telling yourself different stories, ones where you can do nothing but win—and you will.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) Imagine you discovered a room in the middle of your home. You suddenly noticed a door, half-hidden by a bookcase in the hallway, that you’d never seen before. Once you open it up, you realize that you always knew this room was here (the house’s layout wouldn’t make sense without it), but just forgot about it. What will you do now that you found it? Will you just shove the bookcase back in front of it and try to pretend it never existed? That won’t work for long. Like it or not, now that you know this room is here, you’ll have to start using it. Figure out a way to make that a good thing.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) Opposites attract. However, sometimes the differences just run too deep. If there’s nothing in common besides a mutual spark, relationship potential is limited; at least one of the pair needs to be exible enough to adopt some of the interests and activities of the other. Since we both know the non-Leo of the two will have to do most of the bending to make this work, you’d better ďŹ gure out just how willing and able to bend they are. You may conclude that it’s just a sex thing, and that’s as far as it can (or should) go. You know what? That’s just ďŹ ne.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) Some of us let our To-Do lists hang over our heads like black clouds, dreading having to tackle their contents. You, on the other hand, look forward to yours, and get weirdly nervous when it starts getting too short. That’s when you panic, and begin to look for things to tack onto it. Don’t do that this week. Before the year is out, you’ll have a multi-page agenda without even trying, so don’t stress out Future You by adding things to that right now. Chill. There’ll be plenty for you to do soon enough.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) Run into a door and give yourself a black eye, or a bloody nose. Hell, make it both. If you’re going to beat yourself up, be real about it; really go there, why don’t you? This mental martyr bullshit you’re sporting isn’t helping you at all; physical bruises heal more swiftly. Of course, I’d rather you just knocked off that crap altogether. Everyone screws up, and kicking your own ass about it will make it more likely to happen again, not less. If you can’t stop beating yourself up, at least make the bumps and bruises show.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) Be sweet, not sharp, kind instead of cutting. While your witty tongue is one of your best assets, sometimes your comments cross from affectionate, playful ribbing into something more serious. You don’t always know how to ďŹ nd the delicate, shifting line between fun trash talk and simply putting someone down; sometimes your barbed jibes have just a bit too much sting in them. Feathers are all too easily rufed right now, so if you can’t be certain what you say will be taken as a joke, it’s probably better to just keep your mouth shut.
