The Week in Review

SECOND LOCATION COMING APRIL 2010

HYPER LOCAL When the release announcing the Mayor’s proposed 2011 budget opens with phrases like “especially difficult,” “economic reality” and “$53 million dollar [sic] gap,” it’s a safe bet we’re not in for sunshine and rainbows. The budget, which will be reviewed by the County Council before it’s finalized, slashes nonprofit funding, hikes garbage, water and other fees, bumps up bus fares and raises real property tax rates. It also institutes furloughs “equal to one day a month for most County employees, including unionized HGEA and UPW employees, division heads and other managers, and appointed employees, including directors and deputy directors,” according to the County release. And Tavares warns that the $53 million shortfall could balloon to $70 million if the state decides to withhold Transient Accommodations Tax money from the counties. The message is clear, bleak and familiar: money is tight, and we’re all going to be impacted. If you want to weigh in, a series of public Budget and Finance Committee hearings will kick off March 22 and run into April at various locations islandwide. For a complete schedule or to peruse the budget, visit mauicounty.gov…. Earlier this month, the County Council’s Committee of the Whole (which is exactly what it sounds like) voted on various board and commission nominees. We examine a few nominees and one well-publicized controversy in LC Watch (page 7), but the meeting also raised larger questions about the process. I wasn’t able to attend, but obtained footage from Akaku and heard from several readers and contributors who were there. And the prevailing sentiment seems to be: there’s got to be a better way. But don’t listen to me, listen to Clare Apana, who was nominated for

the Commission on Culture and the Arts—a position, she told the Council during testimony, she neither applied for nor wanted. “I don’t know anything about art,” Apana said to audible laughter. Two years ago, Apana said, she applied for a spot on the Cultural Resources Commission (CRC). She wasn’t tapped for that post, and said she decided not to reapply this year. So when she got a phone call informing her she’d been selected to a body with “culture” and “commission” in the title, she said she assumed it was the CRC. “This process isn’t serving [people] who show interest in our community,” Apana said. Ultimately, the Council voted unanimously to disapprove Apana, at her request. Councilmember Wayne Nishiki termed the situation “quite disturbing.” He wasn’t the only one. Testifying prior to Apana, Lucienne De Naie called the process “very confusing” and said it seems to occur in a “strange vacuum.” De Naie suggested reinstituting a policy that was in place under former Mayor Alan Arakawa, where a committee was convened to vet, contact and meet with potential nominees. Given the confusion and, at times, bad blood that ran throughout the two-day meeting, it’s obvious something has to change….

each dispensary. Basically, SB2213 could change Hawaii’s voter-approved medical marijuana law from an unworkable mess into a reliable revenue stream, while giving patients access to medicine. As of this writing, the bill had crossed over to the House and passed through multiple committees. Of course, even if it makes it out of the House, it may not have the votes to override an inevitable Lingle veto. Which means it’s time to ask my favorite rhetorical question: when do we get a new Governor, again?…. After the latest attempt to allow same-sex civil unions fizzled last month, it looked like the churchorganized protestors would have to retire their picket signs and red T-shirts for at least a year. But wait: RSVP Vacations, “the original all gay and lesbian cruise company,” plans to celebrate its 25th anniversary with a first-ever voyage to Hawaii. According to RSVP’s Web site, the Spirit of America is slated to make stops on Oahu, the Big Island, Maui and Kauai between October 30 and November 6. Thank God no one aboard the ship will be able to get hitched while they’re here—spending money in the process— or the heads of all the “traditionally” married people in the state might have simultaneously exploded….

LOCAL As the state, like the County, searches with mounting desperation for funds, it becomes increasingly nonsensical for Gov. Lingle, and many members of the legislature, to oppose SB2213. The bill, for those unfamiliar, would allow the counties to set up medical marijuana dispensaries (euphemistically dubbed “compassion centers”) and establish fees and taxes— namely, a $30 per-ounce general excise tax on sales, plus a $5,000 annual fee for

NOT LOCAL Great headline in The Onion this week. Like all the best headlines from “America’s Finest News Source” it has multiple layers of meaning, but in this case it’s also pertinent to Maui/Hawaii: “Nesting Sea Turtle Escorted From Private Beach.” ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/coconut36

Field of Dreams Under a derelict ballfield in Lahaina sits one of Hawaii’s most exciting archeological sites. And the effort to restore it has begun

A “vision rendering” of Moku‘ula.

U

pon her death, Chiefess Kala‘iheana, the daughter of famed Maui moi Pi‘ilani, was deified through Hawaiian ritual as a mo‘o akua, or sacred lizard goddess. Her moniker then became Kihawahine, and tradition speaks of her as protector of the place of her birth—the exclusive domain of her royal forbearers—a kapu island called Moku‘ula. Located in Lahaina, it’s the grotto that, legend tells, she will forever inhabit in her giant lizard form, swimming the surrounding Mokuhinia pond and waterways. “[Moku‘ula] was called the Venice of the Pacific,” said Dr. Janet Six, a lecturer in anthropology at University of Hawaii Maui College, addressing members of the media after a ceremony and Hawaiian blessing last Saturday. Early explorers likened the area—now revered as one of the most significant archaeological sites in the state—to Italy’s famous city after observing Native Hawaiians using the causeways for single-man canoe travel. Radiocarbon dating suggests Moku‘ula has been inhabited for more than 1,000 years. The area was remodeled in the mid18th century to accommodate Kamehameha III, and, though ancient traditions were rapidly being abandoned and kapu sites covered by Christian churches, the Moku‘ula remained a final holdout of the old ways. But over time, what was once the pride of Lahaina—the former capitol of the Hawaiian Kingdom—became a derelict remnant of “pagan” times. Vacant and in disrepair during the late 1800s, the site “just [sat] for 20 or 30 years,” said Dr. Six. The once-thriving “fishponds, fresh water springs, islands,

causeways, retaining walls, beach berms, [and] residential and mortuary buildings,” as described by the 1997 National Register of Historic Places report, became a nuisance to the growing sugar industry and were reduced to little more than a stagnant breeding ground for mosquitoes. Consequently, in 1914, the lot was, according to the Register, “buried by coral and soil fill,” and became the oddly undulating, little-used ballfield it is today. But, Dr. Six explained, the century-old burying of this sacred site—and its relatively untouched state thereafter—will lead to its resurrection. From what is known as the “1914 fill event,” the area experienced, “what we call in archaeology, a ‘Pompei premise’—it just gets capped,” beamed Dr. Six. “That is great for archaeology.”

D

r. Six compares the site to the Giza Plateau and Machu Picchu, using words like “amazing” and “unbelievable.” She said she tells her students, “In the future, you’ll be telling your grandkids [you] worked at Moku‘ula.” In 1993, an exploratory dig by the Bishop Museum produced exciting findings from just three feet below the surface. Artifacts from both pre- and post-contact—such as a preserved wooden plank pier and a sweeping basalt retaining wall believed to run the circumference of the Moku‘ula island—have inspired a more thorough dig. Ultimately, the goal is a total restoration of Moku‘ula. “I think [plantation owners] sensed the importance of the place, because they built a small railroad and brought dirt in from the quarry—and they dredged the harbor,” said Dr. Six. The cane dirt, added to the fill

from the harbor, “just sealed it,” she said. “If they would have put a hotel here, done trenching, we’d be lost, right?” said Dr. Six, motioning to the surrounding infrastructure of modern Lahaina. She then pointed across the street to the shops at 505 Front Street. “That over there we’re probably never going to reclaim. Even if we were able to peel up 505, it’s so disturbed. Whereas here—except for a few sprinklers that only went down about a foot—there hasn’t been much poking around.” “Yellow, ochre, saffron and gold— all of those colors represent the deity Kihawahine, who once resided here,” said Sen. J. Kalani English, in a pillowy mahalo speech made after the blessings. English commended the university’s educational endeavors and praised the Hawaii Tourism Authority for “seeing the light” and providing a $30,000 grant to the project. Despite the dryness and attendant yellow hues, there’s a natural spring on the site. Add rain and high tides, and the ground is easily saturated. “Once we start to peel it back, the water is just going to bubble out,” said Dr. Six. All this wai presents some challenges for the team—composed of Dr. Six’s UH students and volunteers from the public, accompanied by field school students from East Coast universities. “We’ll excavate the dry fill very differently than we’ll excavate the wet,” said Dr. Six. “You want to be very careful of artifact orientation to get an idea of what fell when.” What researchers will learn from the dig—which Dr. Six estimates will go on for “several years”—will undoubtedly add to, and perhaps even change, our understanding of Hawaiian history. Funding, as ever, is a challenge, making public involvement essential. Community members willing to get down and dirty have the opportunity to learn alongside university students, under the tutelage of Dr. Six and other experts from all over the country. (Those interested in participating can contact the program coordinators at 661-9494 or visit mokuula.com.) “We’ll move a lot of dirt,” Dr. Six says. “But right now, we’re using a shovel and trowel very, very slowly.” Dr. Six’s exuberance, like the buried spring with supernatural connections, bubbles forth. “Once we open up next Saturday, it’s going to be exciting.” ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/upfront36

LCWATCH QUESTIONS OF CHARACTER

O

n March 19, two nominees for the LC Adjudication Board and two nominees for the Liquor Commission will go before the County Council for final approval. All four were considered on March 5 by the Council’s Committee of the Whole after being tapped by Mayor Tavares. Three sailed unanimously through the committee: Adjudication nominee Marilyn Chapman and CommisRon McOmber sion nominees Lee Ohigashi and Monica Revells. The fourth nominee—Ron McOmber—caused a bit of a stir. (LC Watch wasn’t able to attend, but the tension is palatable even on the Akaku footage.) McOmber isn’t a newbie by any stretch—he currently serves on the Commission, had a previous five-year stint on the Adjudication Board and, due to his confrontational style, has provided plenty of quotes for this column. But the objections to his nomination didn’t stem from experience. In fact, in a report submitted by Committee Chair Mike Molina, McOmber’s “record of public service, including his current tenure on the Liquor Control Commission” is cited as justification for his appointment. McOmber, who lives on Lanai, is among those challenging the residency of Councilmember Sol Kaho‘ohalahala. Not surprisingly, Kaho‘ohalahala voted against him. Kaho‘ohalahala insisted his vote was due to concerns about “the character of the individual” and not a personal vendetta. McOmber, he said, has a history of “denigrating…the people who he’s not in support of.” Despite a protracted discussion, only Councilmember Jo Anne Johnson joined Kaho‘ohalahala in the “nay” column, which means, barring an unexpected twist, McOmber’s LC run will continue. ■ - Jacob Shafer To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/lc36

HIS NEXT CAREER: MAUI CHEF The day before British army chef Liam Francis, 26, arrived at his forward operating base in Afghanistan, the Taliban shot down the helicopter ferrying in food rations, and Francis realized he had to make do with supplies on hand. In his pantry were only seasonings, plus hundreds of tins of Spam. For six weeks, until resupply, Francis prepared “sweet and sour Spam,� “Spam fritters,� “Spam carbonara,� “Spam stroganoff� and “stir-fried Spam.� He told the Daily Telegraph that he was proud of his work but admitted that “morale improved� when fresh food arrived.

HOG WILD (1) Among the items that celebrity farmer Cathy Gieseker bought with proceeds from the $12 million Ponzi scheme she, in February, was sentenced for perpetrating (prosecutors called her the “Midwest Madoff�) was a $900 tanning bed for her “show� pigs. (2) Farmer Chang Chung-tou, of Yunlin County, Taiwan, drew praise from environmentalists in December for having “toilet�-trained almost all of his 20,000 pigs to use his 600 specially rigged plots that collect and separate urine and feces. Chang’s farm conserves water and facilitates recycling.

NATURAL SELECTION (1) Female cane toads are choosy at mating, according to a recent article in Biology Letters. A desirable male is permitted to hop onto the female’s back and start the process, but the female is also able to inflate sacs in her body to bloat herself so large that males slide off before completing insemination. (Also, to test the strength of the male’s grip, the researchers encouraged necrophilia: The scientists doused dead female toads with pheromones to measure males’ horniness.) (2) Female short-nosed fruit bats in China’s Guangdong Province show their preference for certain males by fellating them, according to an October journal article. Researchers observed that licked males were able to copulate longer, thus improving the likelihood of insemination.

TRAY THREE IS OUT OF SPLEENS Later this year, manufacturer Organovo, of San Diego, will begin shipping its $200,000 ink-jet-type printers that create

living organs for patients needing transplants. The 3-D “bioprinter� works by spraying extracted microscopic cells on top of each other, in pass after pass. On the bioprinter’s equivalent of a sheet of paper, and under laboratory conditions, the cells fuse together and grow for weeks until an organ substantial enough for research use is created (and ultimately, substantial enough for human transplants). The bioprinter is faster than growing such organs from scratch, which scientists at the Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine have been doing for several years.

STICK-DOWN If you’re wearing a ski mask and carrying a gun and walk into a store to rob it, but there are no employees there to rob, and you abort, is that an “attempted robbery�? Sanjuan Reyes, 22, and two teenagers were arrested in Joliet, Illinois, in January and charged with attempting to rob the Supermercado Viva Mexico. Two acted as lookouts while the youngest, wearing a ski mask and wielding an air pistol, entered the store. Apparently, the only employees on duty were in the back room. The boy waited for a minute or so, then bailed out, and the three fled empty-handed. Joliet’s deputy police chief said a crime was committed.

INCOMPETENT CRIMINALS (1) Jonathon Smith, 27, was arrested in March in Fairbanks, Alaska, shortly after his release on bail on charges that he tried to buy three trucks from local dealers using forged checks. His latest arrest came at Seekins Ford, where, according to police, he was trying to buy yet another pickup truck with a forged check. (2) Falmouth, Massachusetts, police hired John Yarrington as a confidential informant on February 16, setting him up with $100 in marked bills to make a cocaine buy from dealer Cory Noonan, which Yarrington completed. He left the scene, but less than 10 minutes later, before Noonan could be arrested, Yarrington returned and, according to police, attempted to buy more cocaine on his own. â–

Barry Wurst II responds: My article, which was a labor of love, may not have touched upon every single project or scene shot on Maui. However, I stand by my research. Regarding Papillon: according to records at the Maui County Film Office (which state that it was partially filmed in Hana) and the Internet Movie Database, Maui was indeed one of the shooting locations. As for Jurassic Park: the Maui County Film Office cited a background plate and not a helicopter shot. I don’t recall the Blue Hawaiian Helicopter commercial you refer to, but I still know all the lyrics to Frank De Lima’s “Muhi Me” jingle. Pretty good, eh brah? Re the March 11 Eh Brah!: What about the roads on the Big Island? You’ll be driving along at 50, then all of a sudden there’s a sign that says 35 so you slow down, and then once past the sign there’s another sign back up to 50!

THREE YEARS AGO, SIOBHAN WILSON AND HER HUSBAND WERE FLIPPING REAL ESTATE. NOW THEY RAISE BUTTERFLIES IN THE HILLS OF MAKAWAO—AND BUSINESS IS GOOD Words By Alyssa Haber-de Leon ✚ Photography by Sean Michael Hower

A

T

few months ago, a man walked up my driveway and asked if he could catch one of the Monarch butterflies flitting around the crown flower tree in the front yard. He explained that he and his granddaughter loved butterflies, and that they had just spent several months in Arizona collecting them. It took me a moment to understand what he meant—he and his granddaughter loved butterflies so much that they chased them with nets, caught them, asphyxiated them in jars and stabbed pins through their bodies. Really, there has to be a better way to love.

S

iobhan Wilson loves butterflies too, and three years ago she turned that love into a business. In a previous life, she and her husband bought and sold real estate on Maui. Then they purchased and revamped a plot of land in the hills of Makawao and, Wilson says, decided to make a significant change. And so the Maui Butterfly Farm was born. From tiny white eggs to the dried wings of butterflies that have reached their natural end, Wilson celebrates the majestic insects without the use of pins. “A man came to me and told me I could make a lot of money catching, freezing and sending rare albino Monarch butterflies around the country,” she says. “But no—I couldn’t do it, I could never kill a butterfly.” Instead, she sells chrysalises (commonly referred to as cocoons) as gifts, provides adult butterflies for weddings and keiki education and offers consultations on how to grow a butterfly garden. Wilson lives with her husband, four dogs, numerous cats, ducks—and butterflies. “All of the animals have their roles,” she tells me as we walk through the chilly morning air to visit the butterflies. Chickens cluck and peck outside the door of a white mesh tent. “They want to come in and eat bugs,” Wilson says. “The chickens are great for pest control; they eat a lot of insects, but never butterflies.” A white duck sits calmly on the roof of the tent. “He’s hiding from the mallards, they pick on him,” Wilson explains. “I was hoping it would be warm, then they’d be flying around,” Wilson says as she opens the door to the tent. Instead, the

12 March 18, 2010

butterflies cling to the walls, slowly beating their wings to warm their tiny bodies. A variety of plants in mismatched pots line the sides of the enclosure: milkweed, ragweed, bouganvilla. Siobhan turns over a leaf to show me the white eggs, smaller than a poppy seed, hidden underneath. Caterpillars crawl around, munching on crown flowers. All flora in the tent serve a purpose, either as host plants for the eggs and caterpillars or a source of nectar for the mature butterflies. “We try to mimic their natural environment, so some plants are raised up like the forest canopy,” says Wilson. “And we have lots of purple, that’s their favorite color.” The orange-winged creatures clinging to the tent walls all look the same to me at first, but Wilson points out two distinct varieties:

the famous Monarch with its white, orange and black markings, and the more delicate Gulf Fritillary, which is orange and brown and sparkles when Wilson holds it out to me in her open palm. “These are all females,” she says. “The males hatch a week earlier, so they’re already gone. These ones are going for a wedding tomorrow.” This is the very definition of a sustainable business, with a naturally occurring product, renewable resources and virtually no waste. The butterflies are nurtured by Wilson and her husband from egg to caterpillar, chrysalis to butterfly, and are released to the wild during weddings and parties. “People ask me if they are homing butterflies—wouldn’t that be nice?” Wilson says with a smile. “But no, we just start all over again.”

he butterfly life cycle repeats endlessly and so does the business cycle of the butterfly farm. It begins with Siobhan collecting wild specimens and bringing them into her carefully planned habitat. (Her permit allows her to collect only from private land.) With the right combination of host and nectar plants, the butterflies will breed. “In the wild, they lay two or three eggs. In captivity, we can get up to one hundred,” she says. “And the survival rate of these eggs goes from 2 percent to 95 percent. “I try to collect them when they’re eggs,” Wilson continues, “and check for caterpillars every day when they’re hatching.” We watch as a Monarch caterpillar chews slowly on a leaf. “I’ll come back when you leave and get these,” she says. The caterpillars are moved inside of Wilson’s house and placed in small plastic containers in groups of two or three. In most houses, plastic storage containers stacked on shelves would contain snacks, but here they’re filled with leaves, eggs, bulbous caterpillars and delicate chrysalises. By keeping them inside, Wilson explains, she can prevent disease outbreaks and make sure they’re well fed. The Monarch butterfly is decorated with a web of orange and black and the caterpillars are striped yellow and black, but in this colorful life cycle the grass-green chrysalis with its sparkling golden bands stands out. Dangling from a small branch, the fragile, jellybean-sized cocoons are either nurtured to fruition at the butterfly farm or packaged into pyramid-shaped cardboard containers and sold as wedding or party favors. After my visit to the farm I brought one home, hoping that the over-enthusiastic love of my toddler wouldn’t keep the butterfly from completing its metamorphosis. There are many factors aside from toddlers that prevent chrysalises from developing. The strangest and most violent is an invasive wasp that lays its eggs inside the butterfly eggs. As the invaders grow, they devour the butterfly and burst out like bizarre aliens from the chrysalis. In the wild, butterflies that survive long enough to emerge hang limply below their leafy home and slowly warm to the world. Most butterflies migrate, with groups moving thousands of miles from north to


“A man came to me and told me I could make a lot of money catching, freezing and sending rare albino monarch butterflies around the country,” says Wilson.

“But I could never kill a butterfly.” south and back as the weather changes, but Hawaiian butterflies don’t do this. Both our uniquely isolated geography and temperate weather make migration unnecessary. Wilson’s butterflies have another job. Some monarchs occupy “the butterfly tent,” a mobile habitat she uses to educate children. “The preschool kids enjoy it the most,” she says. “The older ones are less impressed.” The Monarchs and Gulf Fritillaries Wilson sells for weddings and other events can be placed on tables as a living alternative to traditional flower displays or released by newlyweds and guests in lieu of rice. “On Maui, we’re a bit behind the trend,” says Wilson. “On the Mainland, butterflies at weddings are quite popular, but here, people are still surprised by the idea.”

Though no butterflies are killed at the butterfly farm, they do die. After laying their eggs on the underside of host plants’ leaves, they float slowly to the floor of the tent. Wilson collects the wings and sends them to a jeweler on Oahu who ensconces them in glass and metal and sells them as earrings and necklaces. Despite its unusual nature—or perhaps because of it—the Maui Butterfly Farm is growing, even in this economy. Future plans include a booth at the Saturday swap meet in Kahului. Wilson also wants to start breeding native butterflies. “I’m licensed to do it, but so far, no one seems interested,” she says. Those flashy Monarchs and Gulf Fritillaries are stealing the show from their native counterparts.

R

ecently, I walked past the cardboard pyramid housing our Monarch chrysalis and noticed a change. Wilson told me it would hatch quickly, and as the days passed I became convinced that my son had been a little too rough with it. But there it was: the butterfly, hanging next to the clear shell of its chrysalis, its wings stuck together. After a heated debate about letting the butterfly loose in our house, we took Wilson’s advice and released it outside in the warm Wailuku afternoon. The young butterfly crawled onto my finger. I admired its deep black, fuzzy body as I nervously helped my son hold it on his arm, keeping an eye out for any sudden movements. We watched together

as the creature’s wings began to move. It fluttered several times, then zig-zagged through the air, coming to rest in a mango tree right next to the crown flower—a perfect place for a butterfly to be. My son cried a little, hoping his new pet would come home. I tried my best to explain the importance of letting things you love go free. I’m not sure he understood. I’m not sure I do either. But it’s a good lesson. ■

More Bev Acclaimed chef opens another Maui restaurant Gannon’s 100 Golf Club Dr., Wailea 875-8080

Owner and Chef Bev Gannon with the special of the night—walu.

A

cclaimed Chef Bev Gannon is noted for being one of the founders of the Hawaii Regional Cuisine movement. On Maui, she’s the force behind the famous Haliimaile General Store and Joe’s Bar & Grill in Wailea. Given her reputation, her new South Maui venture—in the former Sea Watch location—has a lot to live up to. The good news: it meets, and perhaps even exceeds, expectations. Upon entering, you’re greeted by ultra-modern décor and a warm, inviting atmosphere. The light fixtures alone are something to marvel at. Bev credits this feature to her husband, a lighting technician who spent his career lighting rock shows. Seating is either inside or out on the lanai. If you come before 6:30pm, choose the lanai for a blazing Wailea sunset and spectacular view of Molokini. If you’ve dined at one of Gannon’s restaurants before, you won’t be let down; if this is your first experience, you’ll be wowed. A must-try is the crab, lobster and tomato tower. Cucumber avocado rolls are topped with a wasabi-vinegarette glaze and succulent crab salad, fresh heirloom tomatoes and, finally, lobster. Cutting into the tower gradually is “the only way to fully enjoy the richness of each layer,” Gannon says. The wine list is extensive enough to satisfy even the staunchest connoisseur. If you like reds, the Sinskey Merlot is a fullbodied selection that will compliment any of the meats on the menu. If you lean more to the white side and/or are ordering fish, I’d recommend the crisp, sweet Laird Family Estate Pinot Grigio. On the night my date and I dined, the special was walu (Hawaiian Butterfish), seared and served with mushrooms, bacon and onions, plus mashed potatoes drizzled in a lemon butter sauce.

before we didn’t know what to expect. It was succulent, flaky and cooked to perfection, while the mushroom, bacon and onion gave it that little extra kick. For the second entrée, we went with the venison loin with Parmesan risotto and smoked corn nage. The venison was cooked medium rare—a little too rare for

my taste—but was tender and juicy, letting the full flavor of the meat come through. The creaminess and richness of the risotto provided the perfect complement. Last stop, dessert. I have a huge sweet tooth anyway, and it doesn’t help when the menu has treats like chocolate cake, Kailua black coffee mousse and vanilla bean ice cream cake. For research purposes (of course) we decided to cave in to the chefrecommended ice cream cake with cherry compote. It tasted great, and revealed an unexpected fact about Gannon. “I remember growing up with vanilla bean ice cream cake and it was my absolute favorite,” the famed chef told us. “Plus, I’ve never really been a big fan of chocolate.” Who knew? ■ Got a hot food scoop?

Legends of the Paul He may be funny, he may be famous, but the iconic comedian once came in third in Hawaii Paul Rodriguez

briefly entertained the idea of becoming a lawyer. But, he adds, “All the lawyers I know aren’t funny. If you don’t pass the bar exam, you can’t be a lawyer. If you’re a comedian, you don’t pass the bar—you stop and drink. Besides, you get to meet more girls.” When he isn’t busy looking at himself naked, hanging with A-list celebrities or meeting chicks, Rodriguez is the chairman of the California Latino Water Coalition, which advocates conservation and the water rights of farmers in the San Joaquin Valley. He’s been given a humanitarian honor by Harvard University and received commendation from California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. “It was pretty interesting meeting the guy,” says Rodriguez. “We both spoke through interpreters.” Turning serious, he says he “would give up all these honors and everything, if we could just get water to these farmers.” Rodriguez is also a passionate family man. He speaks admiringly of his son, pro-skater P-Rod (Paul Rodriguez, Jr.). “If he’d been a comedian, he would have been number one, not seventy-four,” he says. “Everything he touches turn to gold. Next time I see him, I’m going to get him to touch me on the top of the head. “I’m really lucky,” he continues. “I’ve got two great kids, who make more than I do, and have more know-how. You know, they’re paying their own child support!”

ere at MauiTime, we’ve got entertainment down to a science. We’ve even got an underground laboratory full of interns cranking out the funny. Sure, every so often, one breaks out of its cage, voice hoarse from screaming, eyes bleeding, but hey…there’s no “I” in “laboratory.” (But, there is “lab” and “rat.”) Usually the lab is chaotic, filled with the sound of wailing and gnashing teeth and soft undertones of tortured sobbing. The air is heavy with the stench of despair, burnt coffee and stale pizza. However, this day was different. On this fateful morning, we heard the faint sound of laughter. We clambered down the hidden stairs and found the interns lying prostrate, huddled around an image of Paul Rodriguez. We knew we had found our A&E article for the week. Rodriguez got his comedy start in Hawaii. He entered a contest, judged by the legendary Don Ho. “I thought I had won, you know?” he remembers. “When they announced I was third, the whole audience booed. After that, I cashed my plane ticket home and got drunk. When I woke up, I was stranded in Hawaii.” After six months in the Aloha State— spent doing standup “in that pink hotel [Royal Hawaiian Hotel]” and hanging around comedy greats like Andy Bumatai— Rodriguez left with the goal of becoming the “Andy Bumatai of LA.” Back on the Mainland he excelled as a comic and hosted several shows, including The Newlywed Game. “I did it just because I needed the money,” he says. “They gave the cheapest prizes. Once, this guy came up to me and said, after he had been on the show, he and his wife got divorced. It was terrible.” More recently, he starred in and produced

Kid Schlock Smart graphic novel gets the ‘Hannah Montana’ treatment Diary of a Wimpy Kid

★★★★★

Rated PG/91 min. Jeff Kinney’s hilarious Web comic Diary of a Wimpy Kid became a series of bestselling graphic novels that dealt with the hardships of a middle school student named Greg Heffley. I’ve read the books and they’re brilliant in the way they tap into the universal horrors of pre-teen life and extract humor from the most painfully embarrassing, relatable moments. We’re not talking Watchmen, but the graphic novels are among the funniest and most readable I’ve come across. The books are for everyone, while the movie, which Kinney produced, is strictly for kids. Heffley is played by Zachary Gordon. His performance, like nearly everyone else’s, is on a snarky, glib, Nickelodeon sitcom-level. What was a clever satire on paper is now just a broad kiddie comedy. The plot is a patched-together highlight reel from the comics: Greg getting tortured

18 March 18, 2010

Ah gym class, where lifelong neuroses are born.

by his wicked older brother (a funny Devon Bostick), the rise in social status of Greg’s nerdy best friend Rowley (winningly played by Robert Capron), enduring safety patrol duty, being clueless with the opposite sex and the dreaded “cheese touch,” a cootielike condition brought on by touching

a long-gestating slice of cheese on the playground. Some of this is smile-inducing, but most of it made me wish I was reading the books instead of watching a secondrate adaptation. Kinney’s comic is a series of stick-figure drawings, which the movie sometimes recreates. The brief animated

interludes are stronger than the live-action footage, which is oddly more cartoonish. Considering how many truly great films there are that deal with the awkwardness of being a little boy—like The 400 Blows, A Christmas Story or Lucas (which had a career-best performance from the late Corey Haim)—this seems like a waste of a good idea. Why couldn’t the filmmakers have tried to do something smart and honest? Where the Wild Things Are and even Home Alone made richer observations about growing up and learning tough life lessons along the way. Don’t kids deserve better than obvious, easy gags about all things gross and grody? Boogers and bodily functions get co-star billing, and the desired effect is achieved: the kids at the preview screening I attended laughed throughout. There’s something to be said for that, but it’s too bad that a genuinely smart subject got dumbed down for the Hannah Montana crowd. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/film36

This Week's Picks Whale Force

Diva and Conquer

Friday (March 19), 7pm, Makawao Union Church, Makawao, $20 donation/$10 seniors/keiki free

Saturday (March 20), 5:30pm registration/6-8pm party, David Paul’s Island Grill, Lahaina

From a buoy off Maui shores—where whales are regularly observed—a hydrophone (underwater microphone) dangles into the depths. It captures male whales’ songs (these baleen have a boys choir only) and transmits them via radio signal (2.4GHz FM beacon frequency, 100 milliwatts effective radiated power) from an antenna on the buoy unit Hokumoanalani, to a receiver at the onshore control center. Thereafter, by the power of the Internets, Hawaii’s humpback songs can be listened to by up to 100 people at a time. They’ve even got an iPhone app ($2.99). But for this “entirely noncommercial, volunteer-basis� project to continue, it needs support. Enter the benefit concert. Philosopher and musician David Rothenberg—pictured playing to whales from a Zodiac—who authored Thousand Mile Song: Whale Music in a Sea of Sound (and whose previous publication, Why Birds Sing became a BBC documentary), will headline the event. The kahauanu lake string styling of the group Keaolani will be accompanied by the skilled sways of Halau Wehiwehi o Leilehua, under Kumu Hula Leilehua Gordean Lee Bailey. And, during an improvisational meditation in motion with Mark Takaha of SpiritDance fame, interested audience members can participate in connecting to the whale world through movement. Whalesong.net.

The definition of “diva� definitely relies on the context. It’s an Italian word with roots in opera lingo (diva is to female lead, as divo is to male lead), evoking all that is divine. No wonder the word has survived since powdered wigs and is so easily applied to (a select few of) our modern celebrities—usually those with powerful pipes and an attitude to match. See, that’s the tricky thing about the term. Forever bound to bitchiness, those deemed “diva�—though talented and empowered—infamously posses an exaggerated sense of entitlement. But the word has also come to mean empowerment—and empowerment is awesome! Also awesome: playing celebrity for a night. Limited to just 150 members, this month’s swanky Diva Club by David Paul’s Island Grill takes on all that is Tinseltown. Dress up, as paparazzi will shoot your glamour shot after a mini make-up enhancement by Hina Mana Salon and Spa—because real-life divas deserve a bit of glam. Of course, there’ll be all the good stuff like a sushi bar, drink specials and giveaways—but best of all, your Diva Club membership benefits Maui’s Women Helping Women. 662-3000, davidpaulsislandgrill.com, whwmaui.net.

Pop in the Name of Love

Sunday (March 21), 11am-3pm, Daddy O’s BarberShop, Kahului, Free

Sunday (March 21), 3:30pm, Castle Theater, MACC, Kahului, $36/$26/$21/$10, half-price for keiki

Your Flowbee will be forever lonely and those old clippers will no longer cut it after you read this: “all haircuts come with a hot lather neck shave and shoulder massage.” That’s in addition to your okole comfortably cruising in a pistachio-colored porcelain barber’s chair from 1924, complimentary Coke (or H20) and tunes piping out of a 1954 Seeburg Jukebox (you can even get one of those neat hot towel straight-razor shaves). Such is the service at Daddy O’s BarberShop, whose claim to fame is being Maui’s only old-fashioned barbershop. But sorry divas, this walk-in only joint is just for men. However, it’s befitting of a place bedecked with pinups and rock ’n‘ roll paraphernalia to “love cars and car people,” and this badass barbershop is hosting “the first big [car] show of the year”—and that’s for kane and wahine alike (keiki too). The Maui Classic Cruisers will be joined by the Maui Exotic Car Club in front of Daddy O’s Dairy Road location, boasting famed fuelinjected feats and treats like the Delorean from Back to the Future, the General Lee from The Dukes of Hazzard and a special appearance by Herbie the Love Bug, to the tune of oldies by Mr. Music, along with twist and hula hoop showdowns. So forget about your five o’clock shadow, McFly, and rev up your Sunday. Mauicarshows.com.

Still looking for ways to soften up your sugar pop, as compensation for some regrettable St. Patty’s debacle or perhaps lingering V-day failures? There’s no shame in aiming for clichés by taking her to an art gallery, then the orchestra (in fact, it’s rather classy). The prestigious juried show by the Art Maui organization celebrates its 32nd year—featuring 145 pieces by 125 artists. With so much art to ogle, there’s plenty of opportunity to charm your lover with your oh-so-insightful interpretations and critiques (give it a shot… we’re all critics, right?). Having debuted on March 7 and running through April 2, this Schaefer International Gallery show is open daily from 11am-5pm (and it’s free). Then, cement your cultured-sweetheart status by attending “Orchestral Solos,” the second installment of the year by Maui Pops Orchestra, this Sunday only. Two major works are the focal point of the show—Capriccio Espagnol, composed by Russian Rimsky-Korsakov, inspired by the folk music of Spain, as well as Bolero, Maurice Ravel’s most famous composition. 242-7465, mauiarts.org/artmaui.com/mauipops.org.

Horoscopes

sign.language.astrology@gmail.com PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) Many Pisces have problems with unexpressed anger. That’s not to say it’s healthy to fly into an unholy rage every time something goes awry, but keeping your irritation pent up is highly inadvisable. It can actually lead to physical health problems, as well as just set you up with resentmentfueled behaviors that don’t make your life better in any way, shape, or form. This week, focus on cutting loose with your feelings, even and especially if they’re negative ones. Restraint is okay; heavy-duty selfcensorship and suppression are big no-nos. Keep them to a minimum.

SIGN

AGE LANGU

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) While your Piscean neighbors may have trouble clearly letting others know when they’re pissed off, you Rams frequently have the opposite problem: controlling your temper. I applaud that you’re willing to let loose with whatever you’re feeling, but there are times when this can get out of hand. Most Aries (or their friends) can name half a dozen times this has led to embarrassing or over-the-top situations. I would never counsel you to shut down your feelings or hold them in; however, there are times— particularly this week—when taking them down a notch might be in order.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) There seems to come a point in virtually every woman’s life when she seriously considers whether or not she wants to have a child; naturally what she decides from there varies wildly depending on the individual. My point is, however, that there’s something that makes this happen; call it a biological clock, if you wish. I simply think it’s like anything else—having a baby is kind of a super power. If you had a super power, of course using it would cross your mind. Actually, I shouldn’t say “if;” you do, kind of. And if it hasn’t occurred to you to use it yet, you should spend some time this week considering exploring this side of yourself.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) Every single human being you encounter or interact with is worthy of some kind of respect and a grain of your attention. Chattering away on the phone while ringing up your groceries sends a clear message to the cashier—one that reflects very poorly upon you. You don’t need to treat everyone you cross paths with as family, but moving a little in that direction sure wouldn’t hurt anyone—in fact, it’s likely to make you a happier, more loved and respected person. Try treating everyone—and I mean everyone—you talk to this week as a potential friend. Then take a minute to notice, at the end of the week, just how much happier you are (and how many more friends you have).

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) There’s no such thing as a soulmate. Or, if that thought’s too depressing for you, then consider this—if there are soulmates, then there are multiple possible soulmates for every single person. Hopefully, one of those two concepts will keep you from focusing too intensely on one person—especially when that kind of expectation could ruin whatever you do have. You can be very intense; you know this. Ultimately, whoever you’re going to spend a lot of time with has to be okay with that. However, that’s no reason to express that intensity every minute of every day; it can be exhausting for all concerned. Chill out this week—whatever that takes.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) Most Leos are fairly high-maintenance. It’s hard not to be when you (secretly, perhaps) think of yourself as minor royalty. There may be nothing you can do about that; Leos aren’t astrologically wired to be as laidback and easygoing as your Sagittarian or Aquarian cousins. However, evolved Leos find ways to maintain themselves. That means not shoving the burden of treating you like royalty on others, but doing what you need to please yourself so that other people can simply enjoy you. You and I both know you’re not really low-maintenance; this week, strive to make sure that we’re the only ones in on the secret.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) There you were, sprinting barefoot through the rice paddy, and you were somehow surprised that you got bitten by a snake? If you’re going to take foolish risks, at least be conscious enough to acknowledge (and perhaps even revel in) them. Don’t put on blinders and hope obliviousness will keep you safe. It won’t. Take the risks, or don’t, as you wish—all I ask is that you be aware of them and choose them. It’s your life and that choice is and always should be yours—just don’t let willful ignorance put you in danger you’re not, on some level, prepared for.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) Take a break from striving for perfection. I know you like everything to be wonderful and it’s hard for you to just embrace the glaring imperfections in your life, but this week you need to do just that. They are, ironically, what make your life interesting and challenging. If everything were actually perfect, you’d either get totally bored, or—more likely—create new, even more nitpicky and annoying things to fixate on. Your life’s not so bad; this week acknowledge that and enjoy everything that makes it what it is—even and especially the stuff that you wish were different.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) Read between the lines. You may think you’re seeing the whole picture, but that’s hardly a fraction of it. What’s more important is what’s not being shown or said than what’s actually being presented to you. You have an amazing ability to fill in the gaps; sometimes, however, you’re lazy about really tuning it up and making use of it. This week, get your practice in. Pay close attention to the subtext of the situation; if you’re savvy enough to grasp what’s really going on here, you’ll be in a position to dramatically improve your own circumstances.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) Putting up walls between you and the world is a drag; however, it’s necessary when the world’s populated by brain-eating zombies. Naturally, most of the planet isn’t actually out to get you and consume your brain and eat your soul; but there are elements of it that will do exactly that, if you let them. Therefore, a few well-crafted psychic defenses are in order, especially this week. Make sure your walls are retractable or have sturdy builtin doors, though; you don’t want to be stuck with them up all the time. There are plenty of people you’d rather on this side of them—so while keeping yourself happy and safe, make sure you don’t lock them out.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) Whatever you need to do to feel reassured, do it. Allowing your insecurities to rule the day would be extremely disappointing. You’ve got a lot of balls in the air right now, and in order to keep on juggling them you need to put your uncertainty aside and just trust that you’re able to keep it all together. You are—as long as you believe you are. Everyone has doubts and fears; what you need to do right now is assess what it would take for you to get over yours (preferably once and for all, but at least for the moment), and then set about asking for what you need, clearly and rationally.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) Some people use the wealth of anecdotal evidence about unexplained phenomena (yeti, UFOs, ghosts) as practically proof that such things exist; however isn’t it just as possible (and more likely) that it’s simply evidence that the human imagination is incredibly vivid? One perspective represents a sort of hopeful viewpoint, the other a cynical way of seeing the world; both are similarly compelling and impossible to definitively prove. Consider that this week; since multiple perspectives have equal validity, why not adopt the one that simply makes you happiest, or represents the kind of world you most want to live in?
