Maui's only locally owned and independent news source.

jacob@mauitime.com

The Week in Review HYPER LOCAL In case you were too busy running a red light while texting to hear the news, last week the County Council approved a ban on using handheld electronic devices behind the wheel. The ban was given an “effective” date of July 1 at the May 12 Committee of the Whole meeting and while it still needs to be approved by the Mayor, on June 19 County spokesperson Mahina Martin told The Maui News that Tavares plans to sign it. It’s been mentioned before in this space and in a story by MauiTime contributor Kimberly Bowker, but what the hell I’ll mention it again: a state law already exists that allows cops to cite anyone who “operates any vehicle without due care or in a manner as to cause a collision with, or injury or damage to, as the case may be, any person, vehicle or other property.” It’s section 291-12 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes, it carries a maximum penalty of $1,000 and/or 30 days in jail and it would seem to cover talking on the phone, eating, applying makeup and many other distracting things people do in the car. In fact, 291-12 is hinted at in the May 12 Committee of the Whole report. After discussing whether to raise the penalty set by the ordinance ($100 for a first offense, $250 for subsequent offenses), the committee, according to Chair Mike Molina, was assured by the First Deputy Prosecuting Attorney that “state law imposes stronger penalties for negligent or reckless operation of a vehicle, including jail time.” That this makes the cell phone ordinance wholly unnecessary was never, apparently, considered.... “Our water resources are a public trust, not A&B’s property and profit source.” That’s a quote from John Duey, president of Hui Na o Wai ‘Eha, in a release announcing a lawsuit against Alexander & Baldwin over a planned water treatment plant in Wailuku. The release—from environmental law firm Earthjustice, which filed suit on behalf of Hui Na o Wai ‘Eha and Maui Tomorrow— states that A&B plans to “redirect nine

million gallons per day of diverted stream flows that [it] has claimed is essential for its Maui Hawaiian Commercial & Sugar (HC&S) plantation and instead use it for... land and water development plans.” The suit comes on the heels of the state water commission’s ruling in the Na Wai Eha waters contested case, which restored far less flow than environmental and Native Hawaiian groups had hoped and restored no water to the Iao and Waikapu streams. (Oh, and in case you were wondering, as of this writing A&B has released no official statement about the lawsuit. The last two releases posted on the company’s Web site read: “A&B Sells Industrial Park in Kent, Washington” and “A&B Reports First Quarter 2010 Net Income of $17.3 million.”)...

LOCAL Rights are not a zero-sum game; when one group gains, another doesn’t necessarily lose. This seemingly obvious truism has been largely ignored in the discussion of civil union bill HB444. Take, for example, a June 21 Honolulu Star-Advertiser dispatch, which opens with descriptions of two couples: a husband and wife who believe “marriage between a man and a woman is sacred, a lifelong union and one of the seven sacraments Catholics revere”, and two women who’ve been in a committed relationship for 21 years. “Gov. Linda Lingle will have couples like [these] in mind when she decides on civil unions,” the article continues. The implication is that both sides somehow have equal claims: the lesbian couple to a legal union and the straight couple to...what? Foisting their religious beliefs on others? Discriminating against a minority group? Feeling vaguely and irrationally threatened by someone else’s sexual orientation? If Gov. Lingle vetoes HB444—and she put it on her potential veto list this week, though she says she’ll wait until the July 6 deadline to make a decision—it will not be a “victory” for anyone, because no one will

have gained anything. Heterosexual marriages will be no more or less meaningful than they have always been. Because here’s the thing: This isn’t about heterosexual people. It isn’t about religious people. It’s about gay people and their right to do all the important, practical stuff married couples do: filing taxes, receiving benefits, making life and death decisions. In fact, Lingle acknowledges as much in her one-sentence veto explanation, which reads: “Extends the same rights, benefits, protections, and responsibilities of spouses in a marriage to partners in a civil union.” Whereas the explanations accompanying most of her 39 potential vetoes contain words like “violates,” “adversely impacts” and “unfunded mandate,” the one for HB444 is just a description of the bill. No mention of undermining the “sanctity of marriage” or going against “traditional values.” Maybe that’s a sign the Governor sees the light. We’ll know soon enough.... Speaking of the other bills on the Governor’s chopping block: One of them is HB2239, which would add dietary supplements and energy drinks to the list of items covered by Hawaii’s recycling program. Here’s Lingle’s explanation: “Increases the cost of dietary supplements and impacts consumers purchasing healthy beverages by repealing the exemption such supplements currently have from the expensive and ineffective Hawaii Deposit Beverage Container Recycling Program.” Our bottle bill, for those new to the party, took effect in 2004, a scant 32 years after Oregon pioneered the idea. And let’s see...who was Governor in 2004? Oh that’s right—Lingle. So a program enacted and executed entirely on her watch is now “expensive and ineffective,” and the answer isn’t to fix it but rather to disparage it, implicitly pin the blame on others and quash attempts to enhance or expand it? This, friends, is what has passed for leadership in this state for the last eight years. Honestly, it’s a miracle we haven’t sunk into the ocean.... A few weeks ago, Spin

Cycle had a little fun with a poll Lt. Gov. Duke Aiona highlighted on his campaign Web site under the title “Another Poll Goes to Duke.” Turned out the poll in question, which had Republican Aiona leading Democrats Neil Abercrombie and Mufi Hannemann by healthy margins, was conducted by The Fish Hawaii, “Honolulu’s contemporary Christian music station.” Given Aiona’s deep religious ties, the caveat that the poll “wasn’t scientific” seemed an understatement. Well, this week comes word that Aiona performed well—though not as well—in a new poll, posted on Duke’s site and titled “Dead Heat.” As the name suggests, the poll found Aiona neck and neck with both Hannemann and Abercrombie, several points closer to both than he was in a May poll commissioned by the Honolulu Advertiser and Hawaii News Now. It’s certainly possible Aiona has gained traction since then—Lingle did leave the state and let him show off his gubernatorial chops with some well-publicized vetoes and signings. But, heck, just for fun, let’s see who conducted this latest poll: Ah, the Terrance Group, a “Republican strategic research” firm that boasts it has “helped elect more than 80 Republican Governors, U.S. Senators and Members of Congress.” Certainly a step or two above The Fish Hawaii, but still probably deserving of a boulder-sized grain of salt....

NOT LOCAL This week the Louisiana state Senate offered its solution to the BP oil spill: pray. “Thus far the efforts made by mortals to try to solve the crisis have been to no avail,” said Sen. Robert Adley in a statement prior to the passage of Resolution 145, which established an official day of prayer. “It is clearly time for a miracle.” Jon Stewart had the best line: “And the Lord said unto his people: ‘Have you tried a large cement dome?’” ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1401c

SPIN CYCLE Caught unaware... “The Executive Committee of the Hawaii Business Roundtable respectfully recommends the veto of [civil union bill]HB444. The bill was acted upon in a manner which did not provide time for a meaningful or objective discussion of the many issues that surround the proposed legislation.” - From a June 4 letter addressed to Gov. Lingle and signed by Gary Kai, director of Hawaii Business Roundtable, a lobby organization whose member list includes the heads of many major Hawaii corporations

“A&B was not aware of the June 4 letter issued by Hawaii Business Roundtable (HBR) Executive Director Gary Kai, prior to its issuance. A&B is not a member of the HBR Executive Committee and did not participate in any discussion or decision of the Executive Committee or any of its members regarding HB444.” - From a June 21 statement issued by Alexander & Baldwin; A&B President Stan Kuriyama is listed as a member of HBR (as of February 2010) on the group’s Web site but not of the Executive Committee, which includes: David Carey (CEO, Outrigger Enterprises); Allan Landon (CEO, Bank of Hawaii); Nate Smith (president, Oceanic Cablevision Inc.); Constance Lau (CEO, Hawaiian Electric Industries); H. Mitchell D’Olier (CEO, Kaneohe Ranch Company); Arthur Ushijima (CEO, Queen’s Health Systems); Dee Jay Mailer (CEO, Kamehameha Schools); Allen Uyeda (CEO, First Insurance Company of Hawaii); Donald Horner (CEO, First Hawaiian Bank); Harry Saunders (President, Castle & Cooke)

LCWATCH TIME OFF

B

ig welcome to Linda Fernandez, the newest member of the LC Adjudication Board. Fernandez, you’ll recall, was nominated in the wake of the Ron McOmber flap, which saw McOmber, an LC vereran who served stints on both the Adjudication Board and the Liquor Commission, disapproved by the County Council amid allegations of sexual harassment and other issues. Fernandez—who like McOmber hails from Lanai—slid through with no such fireworks. So what’s Fernandez’s style? Is she a soft-spoken peacemaker like Adjudiction Chair Donald Fujii? A cantankerous hardass like Boardmember Glenn Kunitake? Perpetually late (or absent) like Boardmember Jason Medeiros? The answer remains elusive, because Fernandez hasn’t had much to do. The last time the Adjudication Board heard new cases was April 1, before Fernandez’s nomination was even submitted. The May 6 and June 3 meetings contained only minor procedural matters, and this week notice was posted on the County Web site that the July 1 Adjudication hearing has been cancelled. The agenda for the August meeting isn’t up yet, but hopefully by then we’ll finally get to see Fernandez, and the rest of the gang, in action.

S

peaking of the LC not doing things, they’ll be furloughed along with most other County departments in the 2011 fiscal year, which starts July 1. Per the furlough schedule released by the Mayor this week, the Department of Liquor Control will be closed 12 days—one Monday per month—beginning July 19. (For a complete list of furlough days, visit co.maui.hi.us.) But really, who wants to visit the LC on a Monday? Not the best way to start your week. - Jacob Shafer

TESTING THE LIMITS New York state school officials had promised to crack down on soft test-grading to end the near-automatic grade-advancement by students unprepared for promotion. However, a June New York Post report found that the problem lingers under the current grading guideline called “holistic rubrics.” Among examples cited by the Post (from a 4th-grade math test): How many inches long is a “2-foot-long skateboard”? (Answer: 24; “half-credit” answer: 48). Also, if you have 35 book boxes, and each contains 10 books, how many books are there? (Answer: 350; “half-credit” answer: 150).

INSULT TO INJURY According to a May report by Seattle’s KOMO-TV, former Oregon National Guardsman Gary Pfleider II is awaiting the results of his latest appeal to end the garnishment of his disability checks to cover $3,175 for gear he supposedly “lost” when he was shot in Iraq. Pfleider was hit in the leg by a sniper in 2007, bled profusely and was evacuated (and is awaiting his ninth surgery on the leg), but the Oregon Guard apparently believes that, despite the trauma, Pfleider somehow should have paused to inventory the equipment he was carrying and to make arrangements for its safekeeping during his imminent hospitalization.

LOGIC, TEXAS STYLE To ease the crowds entering the Texas Capitol building in Austin, officials recently opened an “express” line, bypassing most security precautions, for selected visitors and personnel. Obviously, members of the legislature use the express line, along with Capitol employees presenting ID. A third category of favored visitors: anyone with a Texas concealed-weapons carry permit. The Houston Chronicle reported in June that the lobbyists frustrated with the long security lines have been applying for concealed-weapons permits even if they expect never to touch a firearm.

YOU’VE COME A LONG WAY, BABY Though he reportedly hacks more frequently lately, 2-year-old Ardi Rizal of Banyuasin, Indonesia, continues to smoke two packs of cigarettes a day, according to a May dispatch in London’s Daily Mail and other news reports. Local officials offered Ardi’s parents a new car if they convinced him to quit, but the mother warned that her son throws massive, head-banging tantrums if deprived of his smokes, and his fisherman father, noting Ardi’s generous girth, says the kid looks fine to him. (Unfortunately for the parents, Ardi prefers only a certain high-end brand, which costs

the equivalent of about $2.75 a pack.)

OH, FOR FORK’S SAKE Sydney’s Daily Telegraph reported in May that Qantas Airways has acknowledged re-using plastic knives and forks from its in-flight meals as many as 30 times before discarding them. One supplier who visited Qantas’ Q Catering center in the Sydney suburb of Mascot was told that the Qantas cutlery’s plastic is “more robust” than ordinary plastic utensils and is completely safe (after special cleaning).

would display, beginning in August, an exhibit of images taken by the blind photographer Rosita McKenzie, 56.

CURE MADNESS The New Living Expo in San Francisco in May showcased such “healthy-living” breakthroughs as a $1,200 machine promising to suck toxins out of your body; a $249 silver amulet to protect you from “deadly” cell phone radiation; and a $15,000 Turbo Sonic if your red blood cells need to be “de-clumped.” A Canadian study at the same time found that 97 percent of

The mother warned that her son throws massive, head-banging tantrums if deprived of his cigarettes. MILITARY INTELLIGENCE It took until spring 2010 (eight years after the invasion of Afghanistan) for the U.S. Army to realize that enemy fighters in that vast, mountainous country were difficult to shoot at because they are often so far away. The Associated Press reported in May that the Army is only now reconsidering its reliance on standard M-4 rifles (whose effective range is under 1,000 feet), in favor of M-110 sniper rifles (effective at more than 2,500 feet).

SNAKES AND SNAILS AND SEXUAL HARASSMENT CHARGES Psychologists generally discount that children at age 6 can form a specific intention to “sexually” molest anyone (as opposed to roughing someone up or being obnoxious), but the principal of Downey Elementary School in Brockton, Massachusetts, nonetheless suspended a first-grade boy in 2006 for “sexual harassment.” The boy admitted putting two fingers inside a girl’s waistband, but his parents sued, livid that a “sexual” motive had been assumed. In February 2010, Brockton’s daily Enterprise reported that the school would pay the boy a $160,000 settlement for the principal’s overzealousness.

BLIND LEADING THE BLIND (1) In Urfa, Turkey, in April, pop singer Metin Senturk set the world speed record for an unassisted blind driver (in a Ferrari F430, at about 175 mph), an experience he called “like a dance with death.” (2) In March in Watertown, Massachusetts, two blind teenage fencers from local schools for the blind squared off in what was believed to be the first such match ever. (3) The Edinburgh (Scotland) Arts Festival announced in June that it

people who admitted buying “anti-aging” products did not think they would work but nevertheless confessed their need to hope, like those who “hope” the vipervenom-derived $525 Euoko Y-30 Intense Lift Concentrate will prolong their lives.

SHOOTS! University of Illinois campus police officer Bryan Mallin accidentally shot himself in the butt while shopping in Chicago (March). Timothy Davis, 22, digging through a drawer in Fort Myers, Florida, last October, also accidentally shot himself in the butt. And four other men (a shopper at a Lowe’s Home Improvement store in Lynnwood, Washington; a 17-year-old in Vallejo, California; 20-year-old Jeffrey Disney in Hamilton, Ohio; and 50-yearold David Blurton, in Dillon, Colorado) accidentally shot themselves in what for men is their most cherished spot.

AND YOU THOUGHT YOUR LANDLORD WAS CRAZY At her arraignment in Missoula, Mont., in April, Jackiya Ford, 37, refused to enter a plea to various fraud charges because, she explained, “Montana” is not a legal entity. According to the prosecutor, after Ford was shown a house for sale by a local agent, she tried to cut out the middleman by filing an ownership claim to it and all the land within 20 miles of it (although she generously offered to sell it to the current residents, aka the legal owners, for $900,000, but only in “silver or gold”). Armed with her fraudulent ownership document, she broke into the home and posted a no-trespassing sign (the only visitors allowed: people authorized by “our Lord and Savior Yahushua”). As if she weren’t busy enough, she also disclosed that she is pregnant. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1401n

F From “the diverse motions of the tongue, palate, lips and other organs of speech,” writes Thomas Hobbes in Leviathan, Part 1, is birthed humanity’s “most noble and profitable invention of all other… whereby men register their thoughts, recall them when they are past, and also declare them one to another for mutual utility and conversation; without which there had been amongst men neither Commonwealth, nor society, nor contract, nor peace…[This] mother of all inventions, taught them, and in the tract of time grew everywhere more copious.” Here in Hawaii, the culmination of this copiousness is evidenced in our speech; specifically, in a special brand that has come to be called, simply, “Pidgin.” But this Pidgin, by definition “Hawaii Creole English” (HCE), is a Creole language unto itself, and whether spoken by those locally born or learned by transplants, it’s much more than a way of speaking. It is more than mere accent (pronunciation), and differs from dialect (by most linguists’ standards, in that dialects are not codified). It is heard in our homes and in our places of recreation and commerce (the

term “pidgin” supposedly stems from a bastardization of the phrase “business English”). It is the subject of a growing body of literature, is familiar to our visitors, recognized by the media and even portrayed by Hollywood. Yet Creole languages worldwide are broadly misunderstood, even by those who speak them, and are often the targets of criticism and disparaging connotations. In Hawaii, Pidgin is a vehicle for local identity, a badge of honor. Kent Sakoda and Jeff Siegel, authors of Pidgin Grammar: An Introduction to the Creole Language of Hawai’i, argue that “the desire to project a separate local identity will most likely ensure that the language remains distinct from English. Nevertheless, there is no general agreement about what really constitutes Pidgin in Hawaii.” Emerging linguistic studies of these misunderstood Creole languages are as necessary as they are exciting. Until the turn of the new millennium, “studies in semantics and pragmatics are scant,” reads the International Encyclopedia of the Social Behavioral Sciences. “There is much more literature on the genesis, sociology and

morphosyntax of Pidgin Creoles.” If our speech has the capacity to teach us, what can we learn from our modern usage of Pidgin? By exploring centuries of evolution in how this language lilted to life, perhaps we can reconcile the meaning of its heritage—and ours. Through shared understanding and open dialogue, we can assess how our language defines us today and choose how it will define us in the future.

T

he list of unique languages born of colonialism and industry is a long one. “In total an estimated 41.7 million people speak Creole languages [today],” say Sakoda and Siegel. From Gulluh on islands off the coast of South Carolina and Georgia to Creoles spoken in Louisiana or Haiti, from Jamaican patois to Mauritius on Indian Ocean islands, from Guyanese Creole in Guyana to Krio in West Africa, these languages are diverse and far-flung. If our Pidgin is in fact a language, and that language is classified as a Creole, then how are Creoles defined and how do they come to be? To understand this, we must first understand the seed of a Creole, or “a

pidgin” (without capitalization). Darrell T. Tyron and Jean-Michel Charpentier, authors of Pacific Pidgins and Creoles: Origins, Growth and Development, explain that a pidgin develops when “contact occurs in a restricted environment, usually for the purposes of trade of commerce, or on ships or in plantation situations where speakers of many languages live and work together.” They also note “a pidgin language is not the first language of [any] group, but is born of necessity.” At the pidgin level, the dialect is isolated to a single generation of speakers in a single time, and cannot yet be defined as an actual language. It is speech at its basic level, a shared understanding among a community of speakers that serves its purpose but often lacks fluidity In Hawaii, it began with harvest. In the years immediately following Captain James Cook’s arrival at Kealakekua Bay in 1778, the Hawaiian islands became a stopping point for fur traders between the Western Coast of the United States and Canton. The traders were quick to realize the mountains were covered with another resource cov-

eted by the Chinese: sandalwood. “In the forests of the Hawaiian Islands grew a tree that the natives called iliahi. Under the ax and the adze it yielded a yellowish aromatic timber, laau ala or fragrant wood,” writes Gavan Daws, author of Shoal of Time: A History of the Hawaiian Islands. Early attempts to establish trade were unsuccessful. But after 20 years endeavors were resurrected and traders “gave up their voyages to the fur grounds of the American northwest in favor of taking a convoy of ships to Canton in 1812.” Sandalwood trade flourished until the forests did not. Within a century, it began to be said—and is still said—that Hawaii (namely, Upcountry Maui) is the epicenter of extinction in the Americas. Almost simultaneously, in the early 1820s, Hawaii became the heart of the whaling industry, “as the whole industry moved northward from the equatorial hunting grounds… to the Japan Sea and finally to the Arctic,” writes Daws. Hawaiian ports would host hundreds of vessels a year. But as harpooning Hawaii’s waters hit its peak, “in the late fifties the industry entered a long and irreversible decline,” says Daws, being crippled by both the U.S. Civil War and when “an oil well was brought into successful production in Pennsylvania, [where from] then on a new kind of oil lamp lit up the writing on the wall for the whaling industry.” Meanwhile, the sugar industry had already begun to whisper sweet nothings into the ears of business owners who watched as their profits tanked. Companies like C. Brewer & Co.—a future the Big Five sugar plantation—which had gotten its start with sandalwood and expanded to specialty whaling supplies. That “which crippled whaling in the Pacific, made the Hawaiian sugar industry,” says Daws, of the demand for sugar when southern U.S. crops were decimated by the Civil War. “The symptoms had been evident for some time [as] one whaling ground after another was exhausted,” he writes. “Each time the whaling fleet betrayed the islands by its absence, voices were heard arguing that the kingdom should look for ways to

take wealth from the soil instead of the sea. If agricultural products could be developed and marketed the instability of the whaling industry would no longer be a problem.” Sugar cane took root and became the most lasting industrial legacy in Hawaii. The growing conditions were good, but there was a problem: the native population—and primary workforce source—had experienced drastic death rates due to introduced diseases. Some estimates put the pre-contact native population in excess of one million. By the early 1870s, they numbered less than 50,000. A massive migrant labor force was needed to build and maintain the sugar industry. And so the life of Hawaii’s Pidgin

When the migrant population married and intermarried, “[c]hildren in these families learned the pidgin at an early age and used it with other children who still spoke their parents’ language at home,” write Sakoda and Siegel. “When this generation grew up, the pidgin became their dominant language and they passed it on to their own children. Gradually the pidgin became the mother tongue of most people born in Hawaii.” “Since the language was no longer spoken only as a second language with restricted functions, and now had a community of native speakers, it was by definition no longer a pidgin language,” Sakoda and Siegel continue. Through what linguists call “nativization,” this pidgin was now a “Creole language” or, more concisely, “a Creole.” Every Creole has what’s called a lexifier, or root

OR IS DIS GOING INTO DA SEAHALE BUILT OF BE ONE STONE? language. More continued and grew. Within 100 years of sugar’s modest beginnings—just 12,000 acres in 1835—nearly 200,000 Japanese, 100,000 Filipino, as many as 57,000 Chinese and over 20,000 Portuguese arrived, as did numbers of Scandinavian, German, Russian, Spanish, Puerto Rican and other Pacific Islanders. The same necessity that birthed a pidgin speak during the era of sandalwood trade and whaling, was heightened when so many nationalities—in so short a time—converged to work the small but fertile earth of the Hawaiian islands. No longer just between a native tongue and transient traders, the population was now bigger and much more diverse. And thus, from a pidgin, a Creole was born.

often than not, with trade/plantation Creoles, these lexifers are English, French and Portuguese (there are many other nonEuropean lexifiers, notably Arabic, Malay and Ngbandi from central Africa). In Hawaii, the first Creole spoken had Hawaiian as its lexifer. Sakoda and Siegel provide examples of the unique word combinations in Pidgen Hawaiian, like this, from a court transcript of testimony by a Japanese immigrant in 1892: “‘Kela lio oe hele hauhau lela palani wau ma ka ponei.’ (Literally: ‘That horse you go eat that bran I in the last-night.’)” Meaning: “‘Your horse went to eat my bran last night.’ In Hawaiian this would be, ‘Ua hele kou lio e ‘ai i ka’u palani i ka po nei.’” Among many subtle differences, they point out that “the order of the other words is also

different—in Pidgin Hawaii it’s horse your went but in Hawaiian it’s went your horse.” This structural difference is key in defining a Creole, along with “develop[ing] its own sound system, meanings and structure, which are quite different from those of the lexifier. So it has its own grammatical rules,” say Sakoda and Siegel. But everything changed under the swelling shadow of big sugar, with the ratification of the Reciprocity Treaty in 1875. It guaranteed free trade between Hawaii and the U.S., and ushered in a new dominant language. English was the lexifer of a new pidgin, which became a Creole through nativization and is the source of our modern Pidgin. Scholars generally agree that this culminated in the early 1920s as the industry and immigration began to level out. Though Hawaiian was no longer the lexifer—and was rapidly becoming less and less spoken in general—it remained the primary source of non-English vocabulary in pidgin. According to Sakoda and Siegel, over 100 Hawaiian words were incorporated into Pidgin. As is common with most Creoles, the term “Creole [was] applied widely to language varieties initiated by metropolitan Europeans to disenfranchise particular colonial varieties of their language,” and what was interpreted as “bad English” came to be known as bad things, explains the Social and Behavioral Sciences encyclopedia. Creoles are often viewed as “primitive” or “baby talk.” As soon as Pidgin became nativized, it was branded as a lesser form of language. The now primarily English-medium schools issued lessons comparing the “broken English” of Pidgin against “correct” English. Consequently, not only were first-generation speakers bilingual with their mother land’s tongue and Pidgin, but new generations of speakers became bilingual themselves—as is the case today— able to flip as quick as a light between their primary Pidgin and schooled English.

“Is Pidgin going be ma-ke die dead?” in his book Da Kine Dictionary, you know what he stay talking about. ‘Cause fo’ real kine, wot does Pidgin mean fo’ us guys anymo’? Jus’ one sandcastle on da shores of time, dat going melt back into da sea? Or is dis going be one hale built of stone? An’ mo’: going be da kine hale we live in? Or da kine hale da Historical Society take ova (hopefully), and we jus’ take da keiki fo’ visit in da Summah? Eh, if anyone going ax and answer dat question, Lee Tonouchi is da man fo’ dat. Dey no call him “Da Pidgin Guerrilla” fo’ nuting, per’haps bes’ evidenced in his collection of essays, Living Pidgin: Contemplations on Pidgin Culture. At da forefront of da way Pidgin stay recorded and studied today, Tonouchi is one inspirational voice fo’ da way it going be perceived in da future. “Lotta people tell me Pidgin is dying,” he writes. “So dey ask why I doing dis projeck [Da Kine, et alia] fo’ since Pidgin is pretty much dead.” To dat, Tonouchi says dat even wit da influence of “MTV hip hop speak,” dat “if Pidgin has always had da ability for incorporate all dese oddah languages into it and call it its own, den why would it be any diff’rent today?” If das da case, den Pidgin is no’ only alive, but stay evolving still yet. Fo’ shua, peoples still get beef dat Pidgin was neva one language—an’ even if was, according to R.A. Hall’s hypotheses, da stage of da Creole life-cycle our Hawai’i Pidgin stay right now, is dat da Pidgin stay fading back to da lexifier, English. But deas theories out dea too, li’ by David DeCamp, who says dat no mattah da way da structures of da language are diff’rent—or no longah diff’rent, fo dat mattah—since da Creole language came about ‘cause da “sociohistorical ecology of its development,” den it never not stay one Creole, jus’ ‘cause tings wen change (li’ dey always do). “For Pidgin, da academis get lotta disagreement on da orthography,” he writes of his book Da Kine. “By not standardizing da spellings, da hope of da projeck is for maintain one sense of all da diff’rent variations of Pidgin voices,” says Tonouchi. “Besides, basilectal and mesolectal fea-

HAWAII’S PIDGIN: A CREOLE LANGUAGE LIFE-CYLE Beginning with Captain James Cook’s 1778 arrival—and through to modern day—myriad world languages descend on Hawaii, spurred by trade and industry. At first,”a pidgin” is spoken, but by definition it is not yet a unique language, as it is limited to circumstance and isolated to a community of firstgeneration speakers. With English now the dominant language, nativization again occurs— when keiki are born to the immigrant population and grow up speaking the Creole language as their first language.

tures continue to coexist in these communities,” continues da International Encyclopedia of the Social and Behavioral Sciences, on DeCamp’s theory. Eh, admit ‘um. Even if you still stay on da plane, dat last one need some explanation, yeah? Try fo’ imagine two walls facing one anoddah. If you stay between day walls, you can only go so far as each wall going allow, yeah? For sociolinguists, dis is da parameters for da post-creole continuum of da language—wit one wall called da “basilect,” and da oddah called da “anolect.” So den you can guess what da “mesolect,” mus’ mean. Yep, das righ’! Is da middle space between. So da guy DeCamp is trying fo’ say dat so long as something remains of da language den jus’ da frayed ends, den one language going stay one language, no’ mattah what changes. But den get da guys called “Exceptionalismists” dat say dat Pidgin’s uniqueness stops at da “sociohistoric” context and is not one legitimate linguistic concept, even small kine. Regardless, da issue still remains fo’ how fo’ captcha da new ways Pidgin stay evolving, an’ assess da way da language has changed. Tonouchi along wit his contemporaries have and continue to make big kine strides in da area, as Tonouchi says of Da Kine, “I figgah da bess way is for include as many peoples as possible insai da dictionary, because Pidgin belongs to da people.” Aftah all, maybe dats da bes’ part of all language. An’ fo’ us wit Pidgin in particular, our international ‘ohana of ancestors when lay da ground—bot’ literally and linguistically—for da landscape we exis’ in today. Dey came—or survived dat—from afar, in ordah fo’ give us something bettah. Collectively in so doing, dey gave us dis language. How we going bot’ honor dem and move forward into our own future, is how we make something bettah for us guys and fo’ da generations to follow. Da fack it belongs to us now, gives us da righ’ fo’ make ‘um our own. An’ what is “our own”—now, as was den—stay jus’ up to us. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1401s

Modern Pidgin originates with Hawaiian as its lexifier (root language) and becomes a “Creole language.” Exposed to disease, native populations decline rapidly and the need for immigrant labor increases. At around the time of the signing of the Reciprocity Treaty with the United States in 1875, English becomes the dominant language in Hawaii and Pidgin’s new lexifier.

The Creole language (Pidgen) continues to exist, and develop, along with its lexifier (English), though there may be pressure on it to change, assimilate and ultimately fade away.

MORE THAN WORDS You can take the girl out of Maui...

L

ocal brethren. In da Midwest, I could spock ‘em city blocks away. I not talking ‘bout da braddahs wit da blalah builds an’ Maui Built shirts (dats too easy, brah). No, like picking green bittah melon amidst look-alike leaves, I could spock even da no mo’ tan Hawaiians, long-lost to da mainlan’—an’ dey too, could spock me. Wit one hearty “HUI!” I’d call out to dem, an’ though strangers in da city, we’d exchange a homesick embrace, say wen an’ where we wen grad, an’ end up on da topic of da grinds we miss mos’. During my stint living in the Heartland, crossing paths with another Hawaiian was a rare event. Nonetheless, those occasional thrills were inspiration enough to make keepinga-lookout for “locals” a game of mine. Then there was the advantage of working at Tommy Bahama, which for all its homogenized interpretation of island life still proved a magnet for islanders abroad. On slow days at the shop, I’d stare out the window in hopes that a “local” might appear on that Kansas City street corner. Somehow, they sometimes did. My co-workers greeted my uncanny knack for “spocking” my countrymen with amusement. But dey thought I was one clevah buggah, wit some trick up my sleeve! Was small kine confusing fo’ dem, ‘cause some of da guys I wen spock as local was Polynesian-looking, mos’ was Asians, an’ get some Filipinos an’ haoles, too. Fo’ my confuse’ coworkahs, dese locals all wen look majah-ly diff’rent from each oddah, yet (‘cept fo’ dose blatant blalahs), no mattah if was Asian, Filipino, haole o’ whatevas, dey neva look any diff’rent den any oddah Asian, Filipino, haole o’ whatevas. How den I could tell dose guys was from da 808? I did my best to explain the subtle clues, the distinctly local punctuation in their poise and inflection in their swagger—but these intangibles, when poi dog profiling, were lost in translation to my co-workers. The only thing that was clearly unifying, to them, was the way we spoke. ‘Cause soon as da Rainbow State connection was made, bot’ me an’ da oddah locals would slip into (an’ between) Pidgin some fas’. Our

tongues was happy wit da cadence, an’ mo’ovah, da tone. An’ especially fa’ away from home, was li’ being in one special club, wit one special way fo’ talk dat only da insiders going know. Even at home, sometimes stay li’ dat, yeah? But my co-workahs wen get even mo’ confuse’ wen even da “haoles” wen talk pidgin too—li’ wen my blonde-and-blue-eye moddah came fo’ visit, or da freckled surfah who went Paia Schoo’, but look li’ he from Malibu. An’ when one co-workah would ax why I wen bus’ da kine accent li’ dat, when I no speak li’ dat all da time—I’d educate ‘um dat Pidgin not one accent, but one language, and language li’ dat is hard fo’ speak if you no mo’ nobody fo’ speak wit. But that got me thinking. Maybe the Pidgin I spoke was merely a heavy accent. Did my syntax and vocabulary differ so much as to be lost on untrained ears, as if speaking Hawaiian itself? Heck, some people thought Pidgin was Hawaiian. The fact it was not—and furthermore that I could not speak “actual Hawaiian”—became as confusing to me as it had been to them. Wot all dis’ mean, den? How come da locals I wen be so good fo’ spock and so quick fo’ love, look li’ any kine guy from any kine place? An’ is Pidgin da prop-ah vehicle fo’ identifying—an’ defining—what stay local? Wot I know fo’ shua is dat though I may not speak Pidgin predominantly, when I do, it stay wit da people I love, in a context that is uniquely “local.” Even wen I stay smack da middle of da mainlan’, speaking with people I do not know and do not necessarily share ethnicity with, what spoke to our spirits and expressed our shared island roots was our use of Pidgin. Of course, I no li’ jus’ ack li’ I’m one Hawaiian, and having to define both what is Pidgin and what is Hawaiian to Midwesterners made me realize dat I li’ undahstand bot’ languages mo’ bettah. So now, I get plene mo’ fo’ learn and have more questions than answers—but nuting mo’ bettah den da road fo’ find out. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1401s2

Wine and Dine Wines from all over the world, local Maui ingredients and a bevy of experts make a great pairing

W

ine Culture is on the rise in America. Thirty years ago there were only 250 wineries in the country, now there are more than 5,000 in all 50 states. California’s Napa Valley is the hottest destination, rivaling Disneyland’s numbers. While Americans still consume less wine than Europeans, our consumption is growing, up more than 35 percent in the last decade. With all this in mind, I have tasked myself with becoming a wine geek. It sounds more romantic than it actually is; I’m cracking open books, pouring over wine magazines and studying, without a glass in my hand. But that’s going to change this weekend at the 29th Kapalua Wine and Food Festival. Kapalua’s signature event brings wine newbies, explorers and investors alike together with winemakers and sommeliers in the perfect atmosphere to taste and pair. With my new knowledge, I have a profound respect for wine experts. There is so much to know: growing regions, reds, whites, old world wines, new world wines—it’s enough to drive a girl to drink.

Master Sommeliers

W

hen I asked Fred Dame, host of the Kapalua Wine and Food Festival and Master Sommelier, what a newcomer to the festival should do, he beckoned, “Come on a wine adventure with me. Attend as many things as you can. The quality of the wines is amazing.” It’s this welcoming spirit that appeals to so many and holds my attention so well. The culture of wineries is to have visitors come by and taste. There are thousands of appreciators of wine, and only a few experts, and Fred Dame is one of the top authorities in the industry. Festival-goers will reap the benefits of his experience and relationships with wineries. He is the reason we’ll be drinking so well. But he also has help, a team of master somelliers that includes Emily Wine, Jay Fletcher, Geoff

Master Sommelier host Fred Dame

Kruth, Michael Jordan (not that one), Shayn Bjornholm, Joseph Spellman, Chuck Ferruya and Greg Harrington. “Everyone brings their A game to the festival,” says Dame. “I ask my team and the winemakers to stop and take the time to answer questions. What makes this festival so special is that we have an intimate setting and put a lot of emphasis on interaction.”

The Grand Tasting, “Summer Soiree”

A

t the Grand Tasting on Friday, keep an eye out for the master sommelier tents, where they’ll be pouring their top-five wine selections. The Tour of California Wines is the largest station at the Grand Tasting, featuring 96 offerings. Other wine stations include Wines from the Southern Hemisphere, Wines of the Pacific North West, Sparkling Wines from Around the World and Wines of Europe, all totalling more than 200 wines to taste. “It would cost an individual $10,000 to $20,000 to taste all of these wines if you did it yourself,” says Dame. With that many wines to pair, it seems like creating a menu for the evening would be a daunting task. That challenge goes to Executive Chef John Zaner of the Ritz Carlton Kapalua, who has created a menu in line with the festival’s focus on Hawaiian regional cuisine and the new partnership with Maui County Farm Bureau. Each food station is Maui themed: Haiku Tomato Stand, Upcountry Farms, Hukilau Foods, Maui Cattle Company and the Island’s Finest Desserts. The menu features local gems like Haiku tomato and housemade mozzarella, Hawaiian moi and hamakua mushroom, teriyaki New York steak and Maui Gold pineapple caramel cake.

Culinary Exhibitions

D

.K. Kodama is festival chef for Sunday’s culinary exhibition, featuring the Seafood Festival and a muchanticipated luncheon, D.K. Secrets: Sansei Style. Chef Kodama is the mastermind behind the wildly popular Sansei Seafood Restaurant and Sushi Bar; he opened the first one in Kapalua in 1995 and now runs six restaurants. Chef Kodama is embracing the farm-tofork concept and will have a mini-farmers market at the luncheon on Sunday, giving participants the opportunity to talk story with the farmers, Darren Strand, Doug Schenk, Geoff Haines and Warren Watanabe. In D.K. Secrets on Sunday you’ll get an insider’s view of one of the most inspired innovators of Hawaiian regional cuisine and how he works with local ingredients to create

award-winning dishes. “The Festival has always showcased intriguing wines from around the world, but this year’s culinary spotlight will be centered on Hawaii’s unique cuisine,” says Nancy Cross, Vice President of Events Management at the Kapalua Resort. “We’re very excited to have D.K. Kodama as our featured chef. With D.K.’s focus on local farm-to-table menus it also made perfect sense to collaborate with Maui County Farm Bureau and its members, including Maui Cattle Company, to highlight grown on Maui local products and produce.” The Seafood Festival is a culinary exhibition on a grand scale. Thirteen restaurants and executive chefs present the best they have to offer in hopes of fetching Maui No Ka Oi Magazine’s “Best of the Fest” award. The bounty of our surrounding sea takes center stage: scallops, opakapaka, hamachi, ogo and swordfish, accompanied by Maui’s fresh farm foods like goat cheese from Surfing Goat Dairy, Kula corn, O’o farm carrots and Kapalua farm herbs. You’ll find a few surprising beef dishes to round out the flavors, like Maui Culinary Academy’s Hawaii Ranchers Hawaiian red veal and Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse sushi a la Ruth. There will also be live entertainment, wine and beer and your last opportunity of the weekend to mingle with winemakers and master sommeliers.

Wine Tastings

S

andwiched between the Grand Tasting and Sunday’s culinary exhibitions are a number of interactive wine tasting seminars. These usually specialize in a particular wine, like “Heal the World with Pinot Noir,” “Zins and Cheese” and the “Cab Franc Retrospective.” “The Wine Idol: The Master Challenge” takes a different approach, with the festival sommeliers bringing their favorite wines to the

The Winemakers Dinners

T

he winemakers dinners that stem from the festival are an excellent opportunity to get cozy with the experts. Vineyard owners, grape growers and winemakers lead fascinating discussions of their wines while local chefs offer the perfect culinary pairings. Lucia Vinyards visionary Gary Pisoni will be on hand Thursday night at Merriman’s Kapalua with his California Central Coast wines. Relatively new to the wine world, Pisoni began bottling wine with his sons Jeff and Mark under the Pisoni Estate label, with their first vintage in 1998. By 2000 they added the Lucia label featured at this wine dinner. Pisoni and family already had a reputation for growing some of the best grapes in the region, despite many challenges with water supply. He planted his first vines in 1982 on his family’s ranch 1,300 feet above sea level and trucked water in from the valley floor. From ’86 to ’89 he drilled five wells that turned up dry, but hit water in 1991. With the addition of the well water he planted 40 more acres but continues a philosophy of growing with low amounts of water. “My theory is simple,” Pisoni says. “Make the grapes scream for water.” The Chappellet family has been making wine in the Napa Valley since 1967. The Chappellet Winery is known for its awardwinning cabernet sauvignon, and the 2007 Pritchard Hill Estate Vineyard is on The Wine Spectator’s list with a score of 96, described as, “Sleek, rich, intense and beautifully balanced.” With three generations of the Chappellet family working on their vineyards, they are recognized as one of the great winemaking families of California. Cyril Chappellet and wife Blakesley will be hosting the wine dinner at Merriman’s on Saturday, June 26, featuring their chardonnay, Mountain Cuvee (a cab sav and merlot blend), their signature cabernet sauvignon, Pritchard Hill cab and the Pritchard Hill Cabernet Franc. Chef Merriman will be pairing in five courses. ■

Planet Moth Battle of the Band winners ready to soar toward the light

T

hank your lucky little ear hairs you get to hear of Moth now. This duo has a vision— with some notso-baby-steps planned to get there—and you’re going to want to stick around for the spectacle. Were Moth to meet the devil and be challenged to a dual, they would not only keep their souls but snag Satan’s too. Halfway through the interview, I catch myself sniggering a little, stoked that I’ve got the scoop on Rolling Stone. Seriously, I think that much of their all-senses-go sound.. “We like to play a lot of notes,â€? says drummer James Bowersox. “With just the two of us, we have the opportunity to play a lot of notes without stepping on anybody’s toes... I try to keep my arms and feet as busy as I want. Sometimes [the “other Jamesâ€?] says it’s too busy,â€? he grins. When they launch into an original called “Old Faithfulâ€? (they’re all originals, by the way), all those opportunistic, mathematically mastered notes gush out—rolling around like a mouthful of magic jujubes. It’s -buds have been awhile since my personal taste-buds been tickled, and like a glutton in a candy store (or in this case, band room), I only want more. “I don’t know if we should let the cat out of the bag,â€? says the “other James,â€? a sixstringer who goes by “Cotton.â€? “Our whole vision, people will see a taste of on Saturday‌ I’ll say that much,â€? says Bowersox, hinting to what he says will be as much a visual showcase as a musical one. “Can’t a couple guys have a few secrets?â€? laughs Cotton. A few secrets may be revealed at Moth’s upcoming shows—hitting Kapa’a, Kauai’s Lava Lounge on Friday, with the Saturday show Bowersox spoke of at Mulligan’s on the Blue, for the Summer Concert Tour with The Throwdowns, a benefit for the Surfrider Foundation—but mysteriousness surrounding Moth will likely crystallize.

T

he kind of band that earns my unabashed adoration is the kind of band that rolls up to their first official gig late—a little show called Battle of the Bands 2010—and after being squeezed into the last slot, walks out of Mulligan’s that May night as the overall winners. Technically speaking, their skill is as much art as it is science. Weird science. Blow your mind science. Cotton strings up a Fret Land fantasy, as if Deaner of Ween woke up one morning and decided to be Dimebag Darrell. Weave this out-of-the-box shredding with they way Bowersox works his pureenergy beats, and it’s such a thorough—and

thoroughly good—sound that if you’ve never witnessed it live, you’d never believe it was just a couple of guys. Honing their big-sound artistry for what they aim to be career-long touring,

Moth endeavors to create a concert experience and plans a European tour in the imminent future. This total experience will be naught but natural for the pair of Jameses. They ooze as much style as they do skill, clever and creative in even their casual conversation. So, too, are their songs. “It’s about castles,� Cotton says of the “Old Faithful� tune. “Everything is about castles.� “When in doubt, always go back to the castles,� Bowersox adds of the song “Scimitar,� which apparently is some sort of Egyptian sword. “Some words may not make sense in

Film Critique

by Barry Wurst II barry@mauitime.com

A ‘Toy’ to Behold An existential meditation on death and impermanence? For kids? And it’s the funniest movie of the year? Hey, this is Pixar Each sold separately.

Toy Story 3

★★★★★

Rated G/124 min.

I

have a toy dog my little brother gave me for my birthday, a plush stuffed animal I named Pee Wee. I’ve taken him with me everywhere, even to college, and today he sits proudly on a shelf in my office. I’m not sure why I love Pee Wee so much. Maybe it’s because my brother thoughtfully bought it for me from our favorite store growing up, Compleat Comics in Wailuku, or because, with his big eyes and never-failing grin, that dog is just so friggin’ cute. On the other hand, I was going through some boxes the other day and came across four stuffed toys I recognized from baby photos but have neglected. I couldn’t even remember what I named them. Pee Wee sits on his throne, while the other toys are gathering dust. I thought about those other toys with a pang of guilt as I watched Toy Story 3, which tackles the subject of old toys, and the loss of childhood innocence they

18 June 24, 2010

represent, with tenderness and humor. Andy, the boy from the first two Toy Story films, is going off to college and Buzz Lightyear (voiced by Tim Allen), Woody (Tom Hanks) and the rest of Andy’s toys are being put in a box that will be stacked in the attic and presumably forgotten. This sets off a chain of events that leads the gang to a day care center where they’re forced to ponder their worth as playthings and their mortality. Yes, you read that right: this is an existential CGI children’s film.Yet because it’s from Pixar, this is also a brilliantly animated, stunningly written character comedy that kids will enjoy and adults will savor. That said, while I wouldn’t call the film violent, it has some scenes that were tough, even for me. The subjects of death, finding your purpose and dealing with life’s sometimes cruel twists are handled with a maturity and darkness that’s rare for Disney products. In case I’ve made this sound like an overly serious bummer, let me assure fans of the prior two films that this is, with little

competition, the funniest movie of the year so far. Kids who are older and can handle what happened to Bambi’s mother will find this as satisfying as adults. Meanwhile, you’ve got voice talent that is well-matched all around and new characters that hit pay dirt. Michael Keaton is in full comic brilliance as Ken to a starry-eyed Barbie and Ned Beatty, voice cast as a fuzzy bear, has a role that annoyed me initially, until I realized the ingenious way his character was being set up. Scenes that deal with the dangers of conforming to a corrupt system and the

other serious-minded story elements don’t overwhelm the film, because the humor is so smart and balanced with exciting set pieces and heartfelt moments. I had my doubts as to whether Pixar could pull this one off; did we really need a third Toy Story and could they find something new to say? The answer to both questions is a resounding yes. ■ To share or save this article, type: mt.hy.pr/1401f

A thousand preteen girls squealing. That other sound? A cash register clinking. 130 min.

OCEANS - G - Documentary - Disney goes under the sea in this latest visual dazzler. Wonder if they find Nemo? 100 min. PRINCE OF PERSIA: THE SANDS OF TIME - PG13 - Fantasy, Action - Films based on video games don’t exactly have a sterling track record, but this should at least please FX-obsessed teens and anyone interested in ogling a bronzed, beefed-up Jake Gyllenhaal. 116 min. PRINCESS KA’UILANI - PG - Drama - Taking complex historical events and turning them into love stories is always a dicey proposition, but this Hawaii-set tale has generated a lot of buzz, both positive and negative. 130 min.

This Week's Picks Throw It Down

Friday (June 25), 9pm, Stella Blues Cafe, Kihei

Saturday (June 26), 8pm, Mulligan’s on the Blue, Wailea, $10 advance / $15 door

Steve Grimes. A name synonymous with guitar (and ukulele and mandolin) craftsmanship so fine as to be coveted by connoisseurs. So what happens when the man who makes the music-maker makes music? For Grimes, you get his latest album Labor of Love, titled with no more fitting a truism as could be found for this renowned “lyrical luthier.” Stella’s Supper Club hosts this special CD release, with quite the crew of guest musicians, including, Mike Buono, Mike Kennedy and Kerry Sofaly on drums, Bob Harrison and Tim Hackbarth on bass, Ken Kennell, Bob Bangerter and Tomy Conway on guitar, Sal Godinez and Gilbert Emata on keys, David Choy on sax, plus Bob Jones on guitar and drums. But that’s not all! The new album explores “the wit, grit... and other personal belongings that end up in the lost and found of the Grimes mind,” further featuring the likes of Pat Simmons of the Doobie Brothers, jazz guitarist Larry Coryell, harmonicist Norton Buffalo, Barry Flanagan of HAPA, Jon Cleary and Hutch Hutchinson (both of Bonnie Raitt’s band) and Rick Vito of the Mick Fleetwood Band. 874-3779 (Stella Blue’s); grimestunes.com

Good Grimes

“Woo hoo” for The Throwdowns and “nana nana boo boo” to the naysayers. I can’t help but feel utterly celebratory for this band—one that is as sugar-and-fire as the torched tops of creme brulee. More than simply talented and spirited, they’re just some of the gosh-darned nicest people you could ever hope to meet. Late last year, I thought I’d try out a bit of cancer and see how that worked out (good, by the way). The band happened to be on Oahu, opening for The Fray, and made a special trip to Kaiser Moanalua just to bring me flowers and a fake mustache. It was, like, totally “Make a Wish,” and somehow they intuitively knew I’d been wishing for a mustache that I could keep safe from chemo. Also abundantly altruistic is the T’downs headlining of a statewide Summer Concert Tour with The Throwdowns, a benefit for the Surfrider Foundation. Not sure where he finds the time, but bassist Kimo Clark is the Vice Chair of the Surfrider’s Maui Chapter, and says “getting involved with a cause like this is kind of a no-brainer.” So when this island-hopping showcase makes its Maui finale at Mulligans, going--and thereby getting involved--is a nobrainer, too. Especially when Battle of the Bands 2010 winners Moth (see this week’s Music Scene), will take the stage, as will BOTB 1st-runners-up, Sounds of Addiction. Miss it, and you can stick your head in doo doo. 874-1131 (Mulligan’s); surfrider.org

Loosen Your Key

Saturday (June 26), 6:30pm, Iao Theater, 68 N. Market St., Wailuku, $10 suggested donation

Sunday (June 27), Maui Arts & Cultural Center, Kahului, 2-7pm, Free

If you’re trying to throw a good party, the trick is to invite a lot of people who enjoy each other’s company and who keep the energy high and positive. The musical community on Maui most definitely knows how to do that. Exhibit A? The enticing guest list at this year’s Maui Invitational Music Festival Jazz and Blues Fest: The Highseas Dixieland Jazz Band, composed of Lisa Owen, tuba player and band leader (as well as former band director at Seabury Hall); Jerry Eisenberg, clarinet; Willie Boughton, trumpet; Mickey Felipe, banjo; and Jimmy C., drums and vocals. The Mana’o Radio Orchestra will also perform, bringing Vince Esquire (pictured), Omar and the Soultones, featuring Ken Stover on keys and Rick Yamashiro on sax, and Jamllad and the AECG student ensemble with them. Kathy Collins will emcee, surely keeping it upbeat and spicy. All of these peeps will perform at the Jazz and Blues Fest, as well as the rest of the events of the summer-long festival (check out mautime.com/calendar for complete listings). Proceeds support the Arts Education for Children Group (AECG). 667-2805, aecg.org. [Sierra Brown]

It’s the height of summer. The summer solstice (June 21), just passed us by, and the days are stretching into the late evening, creating wonderful sunsets (and wicked sunburns). Enjoy these long-lit evenings at the 19th Annual Ki Ho’alu Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar Festival. The word Ki ho’alu means, literally, “loosen the key.” Though technically that means a guitar key, I think it speaks volumes about what this summer, and especially this day, should be about. Loosen our keys and locks, our hearts, our hair, our clothes, our attitudes, our lives...and just relax in the sun with friends, family and talented musicians. Those musicians will be in abundance, including Makana, Brother Noland, George Kahumoku (pictured), Stephen Inglis, Kevin and Ikaika Brown, Dennis Kamakahi, Jeff Peterson, Bobby Moderow, Paul Togioka, LT Smooth, Donald Kaulia, Dwight Kanae, Patrick Landeza, Walter Keale and Chris Lau. (Whew!) During the festival, Alexander’s Famous Fish, Maui Macaroons, Nacho Mama’s, Sharing Aloha, Whole Foods and Zia Maria’s Gelato will serve up scrumptious goodies. Bring a lawn chair, a few blankets stretch out on the grass and get loose. 242-7469, mauiarts.org. [SB]

Y

ou know you’ve got big plans when you start to refer to a day as a Day. It’s like the whole 24 hours become encapsulated, and you look forward to it like you might once have for Santa Claus. Recently, I had such a pleasure. But the worst thing about inaugurating Gazing Day is that it will be hard to ever top these ďŹ rst-year festivities. Stars aligned and worlds did collide, for in a single afternoon my itinerary included experiencing both Braco, the healing-gaze mystic from Croatia, and Zac Efron, the squeaky-clean teen dream from Hollywood. The assignment was clear: Who has the more mesmerizing gaze? Through their look alone, both of these guys are purported to have the power to amass hundreds of thousands of followers. Known the globe over, droves of devotees ock to these men. Yet somehow, I hadn’t heard of either of them. Thank goodness for Google! A quick search and I was privy to a peach-colored Web page with more than I’d ever care to know about Braco’s “paranormal ability to heal with his gaze that is as impressive as any X-Men or 4400 ability.â€? As for Efron, someone said he’s “that High School Musical guy,â€? and that was all I needed to know. Brah, Gazing Day was on.

T

he morning-of struck like a gong, the belly of the day reverberating with my anticipation. Wrapping up my keyboard clickety-clack, I had just enough time to drop a Jackson in the gas tank and haul my trusty Toyo to Haiku for the 2pm Braco Gazing Session. I’d never been inside The Studio Maui on Haiku Road, which is weird/not weird because not so long ago I called that sundrop-drenched town home and would frequent the adjacent Haiku Grocery. Often, I’d see groups of linen-clad lankiness oat down to a far corner of the cannery. As I paid for my grinds or folded towels at the laundromat next door, I would wonder what the lanky might be doing but never bothered to seek or think up an answer. (OK. Sometimes—if the line was long or there were lots of towels—I’d think up something just to pass the time.) But, I discovered, that far corner is more intriguing than could ever be imagined. Through an archway and across a gravel lot I found a colorful cubbyhole in which to put my slippahs and a nice lady in a nearby tent selling Chinese 5 Spice chai tea. Colorful ags ew above the doorway anking a glimpse of the foyer, which reminded me of a timeshare sales lounge at the YMCA. Since Braco’s gaze is said to “defy scientiďŹ c explanation,â€? I prepared duly. Studying his Web site (braco.net), I found one particularly informative article titled, “How to Gaze Back: How can I make the most of my gazing experience?â€? A session with Braco is only $8, but what with the economy and all I wanted to get maximum bang for my gazing buck.

Web site suggestions included freeing your mind and “simply mak[ing] your wish, your request of the energy and Braco.â€? OK. Free my mind. Easy enough. But make my wish? One wish? Three wishes? The article did not specify, so I prepared three, just in case. Also informative were the bullet points outlining the Gazing Session format: 1) â€œâ€Śtickets are collected at the doorâ€?; 2) “Those in wheelchairs, on crutches, with mobility impairments, the elderly or people of shorter stature may be invited into the ďŹ rst three rowsâ€?; 3) â€œâ€Śthe gazing room doors are closed‌â€?; 4) “A 10-20 minute introduction‌ a basis for understanding what is taking placeâ€?; 5) “asked to stand for the gazing and Braco will be introducedâ€?; 6) “a special music is played for the gazing and Braco will take the stage to silently make the gazing for 5-8 minutes. As he gazes at us, we may gaze back at himâ€?; 7) â€œâ€Śsilence to continue to integrate their experienceâ€?; 8) â€œâ€Śexit the gazing room to ready it for the next session.â€? And, because “Braco is anchored in this boundless energy,â€? from his silent gaze “even skeptics can walk away sometimes with miraculous physical healings taking place.â€? “Even skeptics‌â€? You know what? I’ll just be out with it: While I’d really love to think this sort of thing is possible, let alone real—it is not. Especially with Braco. I mean, some dude wearing a buttonup shirt, dark-wash skinny jeans and ashy gold rings walks silently onstage and stares at the crowd— slightly crosseyed, I might add. Nine rows by 15 seats, at eight bucks a head. (Oh, and the books and DVDs and “powerfulâ€? $302 gold charm necklace. No joke.) Meanwhile, the most ridiculous music you’ve ever heard in your life is bumped on the PA and people gaze adoringly back at this con. Then the music stops and Braco stares at you in dead silence. It is weird. Then he leaves. All the while I am indeed overcome by a feeling, but it isn’t miraculous physical healing. It’s the pain of restraining uncontrollable laughter. The room remains quiet for seemingly longer than Braco “made the gaze.â€? Event promoters peek repeatedly from behind a bamboo curtain, down from a glasswindowed ofďŹ ce on the open oor above. They don’t seem to think anyone can see them. Of those who have gazed at Braco, some are crying, others are immersed in meditation. Then a bell chimes and everyone leaves. That was my favorite part.

O

K. Maybe I’m not giving Braco enough credit. It was miraculous that within an hour after my session at The Studio I’d sought, bought and squeezed myself into a jade-colored Calvin Klein sheath dress, off the clearance rack at Ross, grabbed a new tube of red lipstick from Longs and was on my way to the opening night of the Maui Film Festival—and a one-

on-one interview with Zac Efron. Honestly, at this point, Efron had won my gaze competition by default, but he would go on to earn it. Forbes “Celebrity 100â€? lister though he may be, he hustles for his stash. From a Wailea sunset photo shoot to a videotaped beach-view interview to another photo shoot to more interviews to a screening of an awkward clip-homage to his budding career and a ďŹ nal, even more awkward onscreen interview, set to the soundtrack of hyperventilating pre-teens. Sure he’s cookie-cutter, but damn if he didn’t hold his own. Asked my silly, Pidginstyle questions, he was too trained and too clever to stray off topic but also seemed to genuinely mean well. His handshake was ďŹ rm and his interest jovial, which gets a thumbs-up from me any day. And he posed for a MauiTime BUSTED! photo. More than his gaze, I was fascinated by how he automatically, almost unconsciously stopped to spit out his gum and wipe his face before approaching the press. Or the way he’d ash a response in a very movie star way, but would otherwise cast his eyes down and to the side. When I observed him during other interviews and the same ol’ question was asked, there rippled under his Proactiv-perfect skin subtle signs of strain. That was most mesmerizing of all, so I decided he should win the non-gaze award, too.

R

eecting on my ďŹ rst-annual Gazing Day, I thought about the four Japanese aunties I’d met at Braco. I felt akin to the lot, thinking we’d stuck out like sore thumbs in all the swaths of linen. Afterward in the parking lot, I asked them what they thought of the gazing. “We drove all da way from Kahului,â€? one aunty said, adding that they’d read about it the paper. Then she whispered, “Eh, did you feel anyting?â€? I scrunched my nose and shook my head, and we all shared a giggle. Parting ways, I headed to my car and they made for the Haiku Grocery, perhaps even the laundromat. Who knows? At least we’d made a Day out of it. â–

Horoscopes

sign.language.astrology@gmail.com CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) Harvesting the rainforest’s renewable resources is exponentially more lucrative and sustainable (not to mention more ethically and environmentally awesome) than simply chopping down the trees and raising cattle on the land. Unfortunately, taking advantage of those renewable resources requires knowledge and training that most people with access to this land simply don’t have. The situation before you is somewhat similar—because of your lack of experience, you don’t know how to squeeze the full potential out of it. Luckily for you, there’s a willing volunteer who’s willing to help you change up the paradigm When the offer comes, I suggest you take them up on it.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) Letting others take charge has never been your forte. It gets worse when they’re reluctant to (or bad at) taking up the reins and making the situation work out harmoniously and successfully. The truth is, many Leos are natural leaders; whether you like it or not, you’ll often be thrust into a position of control. As galling as that role can be, though, it’s still far preferable to the misery of allowing shit to hit the fan under someone else’s supervision. As much work as it is, sometimes simply taking charge is the easiest path to where you want to go—that, my dear, is exactly the case this week.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) Try not to let others’ criticism of you drag you down too much, even if it’s expressed more than their appreciation. When evaluating whether or not to take it seriously, ask yourself if your detractors are willing to step up and do the job they think you’re doing so badly. If they’re not, dismiss them—they’re morons who have nothing better to do than tear other people down. If they are willing, however, and the situation won’t be destroyed by the transition, consider humbly stepping aside. They may teach you something, although I think it’s more likely they will learn something: that it’s a lot easier to poke holes in something than to step up and do it yourself.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) Take charge of whatever’s happening. Don’t be a passive victim. Assume responsibility for at least trying to make the situation play out as you want it to. You may still end up with the same results as if you’d just submissively allowed things to unfold without your intervention—in fact, this is highly likely, as your power here is quite limited. However, how you feel about things will almost certainly be very different. Knowing you did your best will give you something to be proud of—and it’ll make being proactive next time (which will hopefully be more effective) that much easier.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) Just because you’re comfortable taking risks doesn’t mean doing so should become your status quo. Sometimes it’s perfectly acceptable, and even preferable, to simply take the safest route to your destination. Although it’s certainly less exciting or even interesting, it’s still better to actually get to where you’re going than to simply pursue the maximum thrill at all times. Yes, life is usually all about the journey, but this week, please focus on arriving at your destination, even if the trip there is incredibly dull—there’ll be plenty of time to seek out wild adventure later.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) What do people do when the power goes out? With no television and no internet, they light candles. They play games. They interact! And they discover it’s actually pretty damn fun. However, once those electronic distractions rear their ugly heads again, it’s so hard to remember how great it is just to be present with other people, doing something fun and silly and special. Try to remember that this week, and make time to do it. Insist on it! When people are reluctant—which they will be, for no good reason—remind them that they’ll thank you for making them do it, once they have.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) Greed is ugly. So many businesses are perfectly capable of making a decent amount of money by doing things simply and sensibly. However, they choose to increase their profits in underhanded and fairly awful ways. Are you being greedy, Cap? This is a good week to keep an eye on that. Make sure you’re being modest in your ambition, and kindhearted in your profit-making. Remember, money doesn’t buy happiness, and although you (more than most) know just how nice it can be, acquiring it by selling pieces of your soul still isn’t the right way to go. Being wealthy and serene means getting there in ways that your conscience can live with. Concentrate on that this week.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) There’s a fine line dividing sexy from gross. A little bit of someone’s natural body odor can be incredibly hot, if you’re into them—but a lot is usually fairly undesirable, for example. You are walking many of these kinds of fine lines lately. Watch your step! It’s worth it to be that edgy—it gives you the kind of appeal few others can match. But you have to dance a careful dance, and one misstep can land you in no-man’s land. Dance that dance this week. You’re graceful enough to pull it off—so why shouldn’t you?

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) With so many things, showing up is more than half the battle. Kicking your own ass and getting to the gym, or work, or wherever, is all that’s necessary for success. Once you’re there, you’ll do what you’ve got to do. The biggest danger is never arriving at your destination. It’s so easy to blow it off, to procrastinate, or to simply ignore what you’re supposed to be doing. I hope you have the willpower to resist doing those things, though. This is the week when most of that stuff needs to happen, so kick your own ass and do it, not later, not tomorrow—now.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) You know how to get things started—no one is better at kicking off something new than you Rams. Seeing things through to their conclusion, though, is something you’ve always struggled with, and this week that’s apt to be the case again. You have such grand, inspiring ideas, such wonderful ambitions and goals. We’re all rooting for you to actually pull them off. The biggest obstacle, of course, isn’t a lack of talent, luck, pluck, or opportunity—it’s simply a failure to follow through. Fortunately, it’s so easy to correct. Set your eyes on the prize and do not let anything or anyone distract you or keep you from it.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) Going on strike doesn’t quite have the same impact it used to. I’m not just talking about the ineffectiveness of forgoing work in a recessed economy when there are many other people ready to take your job. Trying to deprive some scenario of your fabulousness sadly won’t have quite the effect you were hoping for. In this particular case, you’re much better off sticking around and putting up with the bullshit you wanted to escape. Do what you can while in the thick of things. Absenting yourself is very unlikely to change anything at all, so—why bother?

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) Bringing the funny to most situations is a rare and extremely valuable talent. It’s one of the reasons we treasure having you around. It’s hard to have too much laughter. However, there are a few times when it’s important to turn it off for a while and just get serious. Learning to recognize these times— and being able to actually stop fooling around—is an important lesson. This week should give you a little practice. Get serious when you have to—and also know when a chuckle or two would break the ice and make real communication and intimacy possible.
