Wow, now we're headed to Liberia? We just can't wait to start the next fight can we?

It seems like we were just at war with Iraq…oh yeah, we were. Now we're going into Liberia with our flags swinging, our guns blazing and our heads up our asses. Is it possible that we're spreading ourselves a little thin here? We aren't even done in Iraq yet. American troops are being killed daily, Saddam's sons were just reported dead last week and we apparently still can't even figure out if Saddam, Osama or Elvis are dead.

Shouldn't we figure things out on that front before we trot off to the next conflict?

But if we don't head to Liberia, we're going to hear it from the bleeding heart population about how if Liberia was rich in natural resources, we would have been there months ago. Meanwhile, the U.S. is being chastised for butting into everyone's business and trying to play "Daddy" to the world. I guess in that sense, we are screwed either way. It's a classic catch-22.

No matter what we do, we look like the assholes. If we go in, we are warmongers looking for world domination. If we don't go in, we are cold-hearted, self-interested pigs.

I just think we need to be careful. In the midst of it all, between war on Iraq and military involvement in Liberia, we need to keep in mind the fact that we were attacked when we least expected it. Now with our military everywhere but home (as it appears), it's time to keep that watchful eye open and hope for the best.

-Sammy Winder, Ma'alaea

PREVENT FANATICISM It is in Hawaii's economic interest that we find alternatives to future wars in the Middle East. The first war with Iraq resulted in a long-term recession for Hawaii. Why wouldn’t our officials be concerned about the effects of a war on our state’s economy?

That's why we elected them and that’s what

they’re supposed to be worried about.

I heard that it will take 300,000 troops to occupy and safe-keep Iraq and the Middle East for the next two years. Many of these troops will come from military reserves. Working people will be taken from their jobs as firemen, police, contractors, airline pilots and nurses.

They will be ripped away from their sources of income and put at risk in order to follow Bush and Cheney into war and peacekeeping. If people don’t have money to spend, they’re sure as hell not going to be vacationing to Hawaii. It will also have a negative effect on the world's view of America as a democratic leader with a history of righteousness and social justice.

As a former Peace Corps volunteer in a Muslim country (Le Kef/Sahara Desert Water Wells Project, Tunisia 1972-73), my experience tells me that the positive alternative for winning over Muslims is for America to lead an international coalition dealing with poverty, health, the environment and economic re-vitalization. This is the battle Americans should support and it could prevent extremism by confronting the root causes of fanaticism and terrorism. If not, how many more extremists and how much more fanatic hatred toward the western world will this result in?

ehbrah@mauitime.com This is the fifth year I have vacationed to Maui and I love it. It feels like my second home. I have always enjoyed the people and of course the island life. I save up all year and take my few-and-far-between vacation days from my slave-labor job to enjoy what you have everyday. But this year has been a bit odd. I have worked in restaurants for over a decade and I act the way I want to be treated. I tip lavishly for good service and take the time to compliment, in writing, an exceptional effort. I have had no such noteworthy experiences this year. In fact, I have a request for you dipshits in the service industry that can’t handle the fact that their lives are supported by tourism, “STOP PISSING ON ME!” If you don't like tourists, GET OUT OF THE BUSINESS. From food service and bartenders to shopkeepers and resort staff, stop and think who makes your lives possible. If you don't like people, move to another part of the island but definitely get out of the business you are in! You are sabotaging yourselves, the people you work with and the industry that feeds you.

Accessibility Issues for Handicapped 1. Is it legal for a public facility not to have wheelchair access? What is the law?

2. How many restaurants on Maui do not have wheelchair access?

3. How many handicapped people are living on Maui or visit Maui?

4. Do you think it is important for all public places to have wheelchair access?

5. What do you think those locations without wheelchair access should do?

MATTHEW BASSETT Maui Advocate Attorney Hawaii Disability Rights 1. If the building was built after January 26, 1992 or has been remodeled, the operators of the property are required to either make the building wheelchair accessible or remove architectural barriers. All covered entities must offer wheelchair accessibility.

2. I don’t know an exact number but there are a lot of older restaurants in Maui. There are many standards and exemptions.

3. The trouble with Maui is that there’s no public transportation. On Oahu there’s chair lifts on all the buses.

So there may tend to be less handicapped individuals inclined to live here.

But that doesn’t exempt any public facilities from complying with ADA regulations. We receive many calls from tourists and locals having accessibility problems.

4. It’s very important for anyone considering building or remodeling. New construction could face possible litiga-

Property Manager, West Maui 1. I don’t know the law but I do know that a lawyer came through and checked every inch of our building and discovered that there was no handicapped accessible bathroom and we were fined $10,000. So you can be sure that we are totally ADA compliant now. Anything this building is supposed to have, it has.

2. There are plenty of other restaurants that don’t have wheelchair access.

3. I have no idea.

4. I’m not too worried about the handicapped. They are well represented. I’m glad for them and how far they have come but do they have to have access to every inch of the world? There are other just as important causes that are being ignored.

5. I know that the owners of this building don’t have to put in wheelchair access. I don’t know exactly why but I know the building isn’t in violation of any laws.

RACHEL TENPENNY (ON CRUTCHES) AND ELISABETH HARDEMAN High School Seniors Visiting from Texas 1. The ramp is supposed to be a certain slope. We had to learn about it in school.

Our school was almost fined before it installed better handicapped accessible entrances.

2. We don’t know how many but we’ve had trouble at Moose’s, Whales Tale and BJ’s.

3. Don’t know but we have seen some people with injuries that could really use wheelchair accessible entrances.

4. It’s really important. What happens if there’s a fire? It’s could really cause injury to the handicapped individual and others.

5. They should build ramps or some sort of way to accommodate the people.

OPED

BY TED RALL

The Beginning Of The End? Bush's Cover-Up Precedes the Scandal "When it's all said and done," Bush still confidently insists, "the people of the United States and the world will realize that Saddam Hussein had a weapons program."

This once again begs the question of presidential dyslexia: aren’t you supposed to find the WMDs before the war?

Why is everything done backwards?

The recession is hardest on the poor and middle-class, so Bush gives tax cuts to the rich. When an overwhelming invasion force was needed to secure Afghanistan and Iraq, Rumsfeld sent in a skeleton crew. Now that the citizens of those countries want us to go home, Gen. Tommy Franks has announced that our 148,000man, $5 billion-a-month occupation army will get bigger and stick around until whenever.

Now the Bushists are reversing the traditional lifecycle of every political ruckus from Teapot Dome to Watergate. Knowing that most scandals last as long as a mosquito, smart politicians wait to see whether a given outrage will spark lasting popular fury before concocting a risky cover-up. Not these guys. They've started the cover-up before the scandal has had a chance to catch on! Little things hook big fish. So is the case with George W. Bush. His success or failure may come down to this line from his 2003 State of the Union address: "The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa."

The source for that claim is a nowdebunked British intelligence dossier from September 24, 2002. Forged letters in the UK report purport to document Iraq's attempts to purchase 550 tons of "yellowcake" uranium ore from Niger. No one is saying who forged the fake purchase orders, though Foreign Secretary Jack Straw claims that the "dodgy dossier" came from a third, unknown, nation.

"A bunch of bull," Ari Fleischer called the simmering scandal, ridiculing the suggestion that fear of Iraqi nukes was "why we went to war, a central issue of why we went to war."

In fact, in the same State of the Union address in which he referenced Niger, Bush did make Iraqi nuclear weapons a central issue. "Imagine those 19 hijackers with other weapons and other plans--this time armed by Saddam Hussein," Bush leered into the cameras. "It would take one vial, one canister, one crate slipped into this country to bring a day of horror like none we have ever known."

CIA analysts determined that the Niger

NEWS

info was probably bogus almost immediately after receiving it from the British. According to The New York Times, CIA director George Tenet then personally met with Deputy National Security Adviser Stephen Hadley--Condi Rice's right-hand man--to make sure Bush didn't mention Niger uranium ore anymore. The UN's International Atomic Energy Agency went further, determining that Iraq simply didn't have a nuke program. Based on these facts, "The reference was omitted” when Mr. Bush gave a speech in Cincinnati on October 7. And it stayed out of Bush's talks until it suddenly popped up in the State of the Union—despite more CIA warnings.

Even then, Secretary of State Colin Powell refused to use it in his presentation to the UN a week later. "It was not standing the test of time," said a squeamish Powell.

Behold Slaughtergate's smoking gun: The CIA had told the White House about the Niger forgery in October 2002. Nonetheless Bush, after months of excising that argument from his speeches, revived it in January 2003 for use in what is traditionally the most widely watched TV appearance a president makes each year. Many Americans knew Bush was lying about Iraqi WMDs. They just didn't care, which is how he retains a 59 percent job approval rating. After getting called on his lies, a smarter politician would have apologized and said that liberating Iraq justified a few fibs.

Considering the conventional wisdom that Bush's idiocy is mitigated by his brilliant cabinet, Bush opted for a weird defense: I'm not a liar—my staff is incompetent! And so the cover-up began.

In the most transparently brokered deal since Ford's pardon of Nixon, Tenet agreed to take the blame for the Niger imbroglio in exchange for not taking the fall. "These 16 words should never have been included in the text written for the president," said Tenet in a prepared statement. "The president is pleased that the director of Central Intelligence acknowledged what needed to be acknowledged," said Ari Fleischer the next day. Bush got his patsy and Tenet kept his job. But career CIA staffers are furious at Bush for sticking them with the blame for a snafu they specifically tried to talk him out of.

Lying about Niger yellowcake pales next to Bush's other evil chicanery: hobbling the U.S. economy with debt, feeding corporate corruption, opening concentration camps for Muslims and bombing thousands of people to death. But those acts are almost too monstrous to comprehend. Americans easily understand the myriad of little lies--the faked Jessica Lynch "rescue," the phony Saddam statue toppling and now the Niger uranium story--and how they add up to the character of a man unworthy of the office he holds.

COCONUT WIRELESS MONDAY, JULY 21 How was everyone’s weekend? Good?

Good. Well, to keep with that theme, there’s good news for those of us struggling to make ends meet. At a public hearing today, there was talk of making the affordable housing requirements in Maui County a little more demanding. Demanding on whom? Not the applicants (thank God) but for the developers. There is talk of requiring one affordable unit per each handful of normally (overpriced) units. That way, we can get some low-income ex-con into the same neighborhood as his parole officer. I smell a reality series coming on. Speaking of the uneducated, a public charter school opened up on Maui today with one small hitch; they forgot their lunch money.

The school has an operating budget for the month of $2300. A full-time McDonald’s job comes close to producing that.

According to people in the know about public charter schools, monthly costs run about $25,000 so some student loans were in order. Wait…I mean school loans.

Ah, looks as though the tables have turned.

DOE, show some love to the charter school.

TUESDAY, JULY 22 Micronesia. What an odd name for a country. It is a country right? Well, the name isn’t the only thing odd about Micronesia. One of its exports to Maui showed up for sentencing today in Second

Circuit Court. I call him odd; Judge Joseph Cardoza calls him guilty. Sewel Emanuel was sentenced to 90 days in jail and five years’ probation for his cultural beliefs.

Wait, before you call the ACLU, give a listen to what he did. On February 8 in Kahului, Emanuel bashed in the windows of a car containing one of his female relatives and a friend of hers. The reason? Because he didn’t feel, according to his cultural background, that they should have been out drinking.

Okay, so let me get this straight: drinking, not okay but doing your best Sosa impression on a parked car with two people inside, yeah, that’s fine. No wonder everybody in Micronesia walks around with batting helmets on at all times. From Micronesia, we shift our criminal focus to Makawao. If you are going to steal a car, find a little better place to do it than Makawao. A car was reported stolen today at 5:30 p.m. Police spotted the car at 6:12 p.m. but lost the 1999 Honda CR-V. But wait, 6:20 p.m. brings another call from the car’s owner who had just jumped in front of his stolen vehicle in an effort to stop the thief. By 6:48 p.m. a chase was underway and before you know it, the thing was over. First off, don’t double back to where you stole the car and second, you’re not going to be able to lose the cops in Makawao. When you’re spotted three times within 45 minutes of stealing a car, you’re doing something wrong. You must have been the worst hide-and-go-seek player ever.

WEDNESDAY, JULY 23

FRIDAY, JULY 25

The Big Island jumped on the boat today joining the rest of the state in banning smoking from restaurants. Well hey, it’s about (cough, grumble, throat clear)ing time!

See how I substituted sounds for bad words?

Clever, huh? Makua was smoking after an intentionally set fire raged out of control burning three times more than it was supposed to.

Nice timing. It really worked out for my transition. If only you could have also set fire to a Japanese fishing ship, I would have had a transition into this piece. Just something to think about for next time. The Japanese Coast Guard showed up at Honolulu Harbor today to get to the bottom of a fatal stabbing alleged to have occurred 10 days ago while the vessel was southeast of Hawaii. So we have an Indonesian fisherman accused of stabbing another Indonesian fisherman on a Japanese boat in international waters that’s now docked in Hawaii. Good Lord! Let’s see if we can grab somebody from Europe on their way by just to mix things up a little more. It’s a stabbing fiesta and everyone’s invited!

A 25-year-old man took a bullet in the shoulder from a police officer this morning. The officers were responding to reports of an assault with a baseball bat in a Waiohuli subdivision when they came up on the soon-to-behospitalized aggressor sitting in his car. When police approached the vehicle, the man reached under his seat and, police said, was seen grabbing for a handgun. They couldn’t wrestle the gun away from the man so they did what they had to do. This included unloading a round into the man’s shoulder. The gunshot victim was arrested for a parole violation and the whole incident was apparently unrelated to the baseball bat assault call. Talk about being in the wrong subdivision with a gun under your seat at the wrong time. How safe does it sound to live in this subdivision? There are people with guns being accidentally arrested while police are looking for a man accused of assault. What ever happened to neighborhoods where you can leave your doors unlocked? You need the Pope-mobile to get around in this neighborhood. In another feelgood story, a 24-year-old Kahului man was sentenced to 10 years in prison for raping his ex-girlfriend’s 13-year-old sister. Arturo Borja pleaded, “I’m sorry for having sex with my ex-girlfriend’s younger sister three years ago…I’m very, very sorry for everything.” Borja has apparently been working for the last six months and has a 2-year-old son. His public defender pointed this out in efforts to show that just being charged was enough of a wakeup call for Borja. Call me old-fashioned but a rape charge demands a little more action than a wake-up call. In fact, Borja’s wake-up call for the next 10 years is going to be from a fat man named Bubba looking for some love in the shower. Yes, I’m going to say it: Don’t drop the soap. MTW

THURSDAY, JULY 24 Well, we got two year-round schools open today with two still in the process. Two out of four, let’s see: two over the four, carry the seven, multiply by pi…that’s 50 percent.

Last time I looked, a 50 percent was a “F”.

Ouch! Of course, Waihee Elementary School (see last week’s Coconut Wireless) didn’t quite make their original opening date but are shooting for a Monday start up while Paia Elementary, the only school on a trimester schedule, will force their kids back to the grind on Wednesday. Paia with their trimester calendar. They think they’re so cool.

Kind of like those Europeans (and the rest of the world) with their fancy metric system.

British shock artist Damien Hirst, chronicled several times in News of the Weird (i.e. skinned dead cattle in copulating positions), told The Guardian newspaper in June that he had discovered a new refinement after giving up drinking. Said Hirst, "I can drink, I can take drugs and I can produce art. But the art starts looking stupid." Once, he said, he wanted to cover a pig in vibrators to look like a hedgehog and call it Pork-u-Pine. His new installation, set for London in the fall, features Jesus and the apostles as 13 Ping-Pong balls bobbing on fountains of red wine and another piece on the disciples features several pickled bulls’ heads.

THINGS PEOPLE BELIEVE Business is apparently good for "pet psychics" and "communicators" who not only claim to understand animals' emotions in human terms but work with a client base that has included spiders, an iguana, a snake, a skunk, a hawk, a camel and cockroaches. They can do most of their work remotely by having the pet stand close to the telephone (at about $25 for 15 minutes). The Animal Planet channel has a weekly program, "Pet Psychic," and newspapers recently profiled practitioners in Florida, North Carolina and Pennsylvania. (Revelations: Spiders mostly express interest in not being killed and one French poodle's issue was supposedly the dog's having imaged everything in French instead of English.)

DEMOCRACY IN ACTION Among the memorable recent local government meetings: In Shutesbury, Mass., seating at the town meeting was divided

BY CHUCK SHEPHERD

into those wearing perfume or aftershave, those who never do and those who never do but forgot and wore some that day (May). In Chelmsford, Mass., the town council was split on whether to open the meeting with a Pledge of Allegiance and spent nearly an hour debating such issues as whether the meeting might already be "open" and thus could not "open" with the Pledge (April). And in Hutto, Texas, the council debated whether the mayor could use an economic development grant to buy a huge steel and fiberglass hippopotamus as a town business mascot (June).

PEOPLE WITH ISSUES In Easton, Pa., in June, Richard James Clader, 38, was sentenced to at least seven months in prison for a series of episodes on state roads 22 and 33 in which eventually 27 people contacted authorities to report that a motorist (identified as Clader) had driven nude, with the horn blasting, while vigorously masturbating. Clader told the judge that he believes his behavior stemmed from feeling neglected as a child and later by his wife, but said he is making substantial progress.

ALSO, IN THE LAST MONTH A 67-year-old woman, outraged that Guinness recognized only an 831-gallstoneremoval surgery as the world's record, said she would submit her 3,110 stones (from a 1981 surgery), which fortunately she has saved (Neustrelitz, Germany). In land-scarce Japan, the Tokyo city government started selling small cemetery plots for the first time since 1960, at prices ranging from US$30,000 to US$86,000. And career criminal Gary Cowan, whose latest sentence was up, confessed to three more crimes with the hope he would be allowed to stay in prison to finish a restaurant management course (Cambridge, England).

Marine Conservation: Education is the Key “I’ve seen the ocean, the mountains change a lot – a lot of erosion,” said Uncle Les Kuloloio, an important leader in Maui’s community. The effects of overuse, exploitation and development are beginning to show on Maui’s marine life.

“Maui is getting more and more people

[visitors] every year, which we need. At the same time, there is a concern about our natural resources.

Our reefs and our marine life are just sinking away and not being taken care of,” Kuloloio said.

Marine conservation is not a contrived modern term, recently developed for Hawaii’s marine issues.

The concept has always been central to the fabric of Hawaiian society. But modern Hawaii, since the days of colonization, has changed greatly and progress and development continue to affect the land and sea at an exponential rate. The degradation of the marine environment coupled with developing methods to stop that phenomenon and preserve Maui as an abundant paradise for future generations is a key issue in the community.

The degradation of the marine environment is not only a central theme to Hawaiians but also to communities across the nation. The Pew Oceans Commission, a bipartisan, independent group of American leaders was created to chart a new course for the nation’s ocean policy. Their mission is to identify policies and practices necessary to restore and protect living marine resources in our country’s waters and the ocean and coastal habitats on which they depend.

The Commission is also charged with raising public awareness of the principal threats to marine biodiversity and the importance of ocean and coastal resources to the U.S. economy.

The Commission, who released their report on June 4, brought together a diverse group of American leaders from the worlds of science, fishing, conservation, government, education, business and philanthropy. For more than two years, the Commission conducted a national dia-

logue on ocean issues, convening a series of 15 regional meetings, public hearings and workshops to listen to those who live and work along the coasts. From Maine to Hawaii, Alaska to the Gulf of Mexico, they spoke with hundreds of citizens, fishermen, scientists, government officials, tourism operators and business leaders.

The Commission met with leaders on Maui who provided poignant insights. Dr. Robert Richmond, a marine biologist at the University of Guam, addressed the dire state of the world’s coral reefs including those off Hawaii, which account for 70 percent of the coral reefs in the U.S. He said the reefs are of considerable ecological, economic and cultural value. They provide the sand that blankets tropical beaches and protect these same shorelines from waves and erosion. They provide nurseries and protection for myriad marine life important to commercial fisheries and tourism and they are central to island cultures. Richmond detailed the consequences of poorly planned development, coastal pollution and destructive fishing practices. These issues have led scientists to estimate that 70 percent of the world’s coral reefs may disappear within 40 years.

Kahu Charles Kauluwehi Maxwell has been working to protect Hawaii’s natural resources and native traditions for decades. In the Pew Report, he described how the decline of ocean resources has affected Hawaii’s native people: “A true indicator that something’s wrong is when we as Kanaka Maoli cannot meet our basic needs from the ocean.” As an example, Maxwell described the loss of limu, seaweed that Hawaiian natives have traditionally used for condiments, nourishment and spiritual and medicinal purposes. “It does not grow in the ocean anymore,” he said.

Maxwell recalled the centuries-old concept of Ahu Pua’a, which allocated land in sections that extended from the top of a mountain to the coastal ocean below.

This system implicitly respected the connection between the land and the sea. “The

ancient Hawaiians had a deep respect for land as it was the children of the gods,” Maxwell said.

Captain Jim Coon of Trilogy Excursions was also quoted in the Pew Report as saying, “We found that the most important agent for change was education and we [have] a captive audience with our tourists.

In the late ‘70s and early ‘80s, the message was ‘save the whales.’ Twenty years later, the humpback whale population has grown tenfold. It is our continuing goal to show, by example, that the ocean-tourism industry can be profitable and operate in a manner that is environmentally responsible and embraces core Hawaiian values.”

Hannah Bernard, an award winning local marine biologist, confirms this method of education coupled with use as the solution (or at least part of a solution) to the marine conservation issue. “The findings are grim, but not exaggerated. As a community, we must focus on identifying the cause of the problems and focus on a solution, not look to blame others.

Our lives depend on a healthy reef system so we must work together to restore balance.”

It is fairly apparent that what is needed to keep Maui’s (and the world’s) marine life intact is knowledge and accountability. “We need to have more educational programs,” Kuloloio said. “People need to feel responsible and become stewards of the land the old-fashion way. Share what we need to share, but sometimes [we need to] stop, build up our resources and take care of our reefs.” MTW

COVER STORY

Of all the commodities that make Maui famous, probably the most controversial and least publicized is the onion. They’re so important, we have an entire festival dedicated to them.

The 14th Annual Maui Onion Festival will run August 2-3 from 11 in the morning to 5 in the evening. Bruddah Sam and Lina Girl of Oceanic 16’s “Local Kine Grindz” and KGMB 9 News anchor Guy Hagi will host the weekend festivities. Mindy Sterling, who played “Frau Farbissina” in the Austin Powers movies, will make an appearance as well.

The event takes place at Maui’s re-knowned beachfront shopping center, Whaler’s Village in Ka’anapali. There, shoppers can choose from over 65 stores and stop by the free whaling museum. That’s certainly not why this local event has become known as a Maui must-see.

It's an opportunity for everyone to pay tribute to and enjoy one of Maui's truly superior products: onions. Onions from Maui have a distinct and well-respected taste among locals, tourists and onion lovers in general.

Old Turkish folklore explains that when Satan was thrown out of heaven, garlic sprouted where he placed his left foot and onions grew where he placed his right foot.

Onions have been described as the truffle of the poor. Their strong pungent odor has caused more than a few civilizations to view onions as foul and lowly. From ancient times until about the 19th century, this offensive vegetable carried quite an unpopular stigma, especially among the rich who regarded them as peasant food. Onion vendors were even rejected by other fruit and vegetable vendors from their market forcing them to form separate onion guilds.

I don’t blame them. They smell bad. They make you cry. They give you onion breath. And their flavor can be quite overpowering.

But onions are high in energy and water content and serve as a great source of vitamins B6, B1 and folic acid. They have zero grams of fat, zero calories and contain chemicals that help fight free radicals in our bodies linked to 60 different diseases. Half of an onion per day boosts the good type of cholesterol, HDL, by 30 percent. They have been proven to help increase circulation, lower blood pressure and prevent blood clotting.

The legendary sweet Maui onion, or Maui Kula, is often referred to as the "child of the sleeping giant" hailing from Haleakala’s high, fertile slopes. The Maui Growers Co-Op was formed in 1943 by a small group of local farmers committed to harvesting high quality Maui

onions and other Maui grown crops. Over the years, they have perfected the art of growing these “sweets” by harvesting them by hand and leaving them in the fields where the island trade winds can dry and cure them.

Day one of the festival features the raw Maui Onion Eating Contest. Reigning champ, Paul Schrommer will attempt to maintain his status as the “Onion King.” Free breath mints will of course be provided for all contestants.

The annual Maui Onion Recipe Contest will also be held with divisions for both professional and amateur chefs. In past years, this competition has brought out some of Maui’s greatest talents and put them head to head in mixing up the tastiest onion confections. The contest will be held from noon to 1 p.m. for the professionals on Saturday and at the same time for amateurs on Sunday.

Everyone in attendance will definitely need to bring along their appetites. Plenty of Golden Maui Onion Rings will be available all weekend long, fried in giant cauldrons and served fresh. Last year, 900 pounds of these rings were dealt out. Proceeds from their sales will

help raise funds for a local growers’ association. There will also be several food booths and gift stands run by local farmers and businesses like Take Home Maui, Arturo’s Hot Flavors, Maui Onion Growers Association, Maui Kazowee Kettle Corn, Maui Jelly Factory and Saigon Egg Rolls. They will have a variety of the fresh produce and onion memorabilia including everything from t-shirts to Maui Onion flavored jelly. Whalers Village’s signature restaurants, Hula Grill, Leilani’s and Rusty Harpoon will have special food booths featuring their Maui Onion dishes.

The event will be set up throughout all of Whalers Village walkways, however most of the main acts will take place on the grassy areas near the beachfront. The Whalers merchants will celebrate the weekend with a sidewalk sale that will also feature art and crafts stands with items created by many of Maui’s talented artists. There will be live entertainment and musical performances throughout the festival. Keiki will have many opportunities to win prizes in games and contests like the

By Sophia Faridi onion toss sponsored by KAOI Radio or the “guess the number of onions in the bag” contest. They can also get some non-onion flavored cotton candy, stop by the onion art table or get their faces painted.

Probably the greatest incentive for coming out to the fest is the delicious food. Numerous local celebrity chefs will be conducting live cooking demonstrations all through the weekend featuring some of their most popular dishes that contain the Sweet Kula. Gourmet cuisine sampling will be available for spectators of all the chefs' demos. A few of the chefs scheduled are Ivan Pahk of Sansei, Bobby Masters of Hula Grill and James McDonald of Pacific’O. I sat down with chef Michael Barry of Leilani’s on the Beach to find out what he planned to include in his demonstration. He and his partner chef, Greg Gifford, will be preparing one of Leilani’s biggest hits, their fish taco topped in a savory, and certainly onioney, pico de gallo sauce. They will also be showing how they make their fish salad with papaya salsa and onion dressing. Barry feels that coming out to the Maui Onion Festival not only gives tourists and locals a chance to taste some gourmet Maui Onion samples but more importantly, it supports local farmers and keeps the produce business on the island.

In the end, there are several views of the onion. In his book The Secret Life of Food, Marin Elcort writes, “The word onion was created by adding the onion-shaped “o” to the word union. A union is something that is indivisible and which, if taken apart, is destroyed, like an onion.”

This is ironic to say the least considering that onions are probably the greatest repellants of social contact that nature has ever created. Were it not for the breath mint industry, the onion would not be socially acceptable today. But without onions, we wouldn’t have Lay’s Sour Cream and Onion potato chips.

Mmmmm… sour cream and onion potato chips. MTW

CHRISTY MILES

A long, hot day on Makena beach can turn your stomach into a growling monster. The nearest stop is Wailea, but your stomach is screaming, "Feed Me!" Exiting the beach, there was once a taco stand that sold ono and mahi mahi tacos.

Growling monsters everywhere were put to rest as delicious tacos were devoured.

There’s no need to drive all the way to Makena to eat those tacos. What was once a taco stand is now a restaurant in Kihei.

Jawz Tacos is the newest restaurant to hit South Kihei road. It is located at Azeka (Mauka) next to Bank of Hawaii. I had to go to Jawz to check out the new place and the same old great grindz. As soon as I walked in, the smell of salsa, fish and fried tortillas filled my nostrils. The menu is made up of tacos, burritos, kabobs, taco salads, side dishes, kids meals and desserts. By closely examining the menu (which is printed on surf boards), I ended up ordering the mahi mahi burrito with refried beans on the side.

After I ordered and paid for my food, I chose a table. I made my way to the salsa bar while I waited for my burrito. The salsa bar has tons of tempting salsas. I, of course, can only eat mild salsa and therefore must choose from the several I can eat. There is "hot" at the salsa bar but "Mild and Tasty" is all I can handle. "A little sting", "I need a drink", "I gotta put this fire out" and "Holy $@*!!" are the other categories that I can’t manage.

The hot sauces include Jawz's special pink sauce (roasted habañero pepper sauce with pineapple and carrot), the roasted serrano pepper sauce with papaya, the roasted jalapeño pepper sauce with tomato and Maui onion, wasabi Asian sauce and the smoky chipotle pepper sauce. The salsas include the tropical fruit salsa, the blanca chip salsa and the roasted corn salsa. The condiments read like a who’s who of tastiness: sour cream with avocado, roasted diced jalapeños, diced onion, chopped cilantro, sliced back olives and pickled carrots. The great thing about the salsa bar is you can get as much as you want and if you run out, you can go back to get more for free.

After examining the salsa bar, my burrito made its way to me. The flour tortilla was wrapped around wonderful chunks of mahi mahi, cilantro rice, cheese, shredded cabbage and Jawz's special pink sauce. The burrito was too big to pick up and eat. I had to use a fork and knife. The first bite was incredible. I have never had a burrito with shredded cabbage in it. I am used to lettuce. The cabbage gave the burrito a unique and amazing taste. The special pink sauce was spread inside of the burrito and with each bite, the pink sauce filled my mouth and made my taste buds very happy.

My refried beans came in a bowl next to my burrito. I poured the tropical fruit salsa in the beans to give them a slight kick. I don't like to eat beans in a burrito because I think it makes the burrito soggy and messy. The beans on the side were a great way to take a break from the huge burrito and get a free side order.

My dining companions had the ono tacos.

They had the option of ordering the regular tacos or the XL tacos. The regular tacos are the size of two tacos whereas the XL tacos are the size of three tacos. Just like the burrito, you can get your tacos with steak, chicken, shrimp, ono, mahi mahi with refried or black beans. The tacos were consumed as fast as my burrito was.

After reading this dining review, you should be inspired to drive to Kihei and eat at Jawz.

Not only will you get great food at a great price, you will leave absolutely stuffed. The monster within your stomach will thank you. Call 874TACO for food to go. MTW

WINE OF THE

WEEK

BY ANTHONY MOORE

Andrew Will Klipsun Vineyard

2000 Merlot

˜

$39.99

Started in 1989 by Annie and Chris Camarda, this Washington State winery got its name from their son Will and their nephew Andrew. Andrew Will has been a major success in recent years creating some of the most sought after wines in all of Washington.

Focusing on Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and some Sangiovese, Chris Camarda believes in making wine from the vineyards rather than the varietal. His belief focuses on the terroir, which can show the wine in its purest form. Creating the right blend is the primary interest.

The wine of the week is the 2000 Klipsun Vineyard, a highly regarded Merlot from the region. It’s a dark colored wine with complex flavors of soft ripe fruit and a gentle and elegant finish. This is some of the best juice in Washington. Get this wine while you can because it sells out each year. Enjoy! MTW

BY GEORGE THRUSTGOOD

On The Road To Legendary The Griff Hamlin Band Stops in Maui Griff Hamlin is a modest and unassuming blues musician from Los Angeles, Calif. This week he brings his own style of music to our cozy shores.

“There is no doubt, after hearing just one song performed by Griff Hamlin,” wrote Griff Hamlin in his own biography, “that he is traveling the road to legendary.”

His music should be a good fit. It’s the kind of music that all of the upcountry old hippies will come and spin to. It’s kinda, you know, mellow, bluesy, funkrock stuff. One song sounded exactly like Stevie Ray Vaughn, which is appropriate considering that Griff Hamlin refers to himself as the next Stevie Ray Vaughn.

“Griff has been compared to many legendary greats, such as Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Robert Cray, Buddy Guy and many others,” wrote Griff Hamlin in his own press release. “The similarities, while flattering, really are only half the story. Having played on countless records from other performers in many styles of music, and playing 200 nights a year for the past decade, Griff has developed a style all his own and a

sound as big as thunder.”

Griff Hamlin says his love for music began at age nine when he took guitar lessons. His earliest influences included AC/DC and Randy Rhodes. Griff Hamlin later attended USC “for a time” – he’s uncharacteristically vague about why he had to leave – then recorded a CD with classical guitarist Eric Henderson.

“The project was completed in mid-2000, and the CD release concert was an enormous hit,” wrote Griff Hamlin. “Eric humbly introduced Griff Hamlin as ‘the greatest electric guitarist in the world.’”

For the last decade, the Griff Hamlin Band has been playing all over Southern California. In 2002, the band released their self-titled CD. “The group turned on the heat and began touring and playing at a whirlwind pace, which they still maintain in support of this album,” said Griff Hamlin. “The experience gained from so many live shows creates a groove and synchronicity, which must be heard to be appreciated, and Griff gets as many kudos for his captivating vocals as for his incredible guitar work.”

“Only time will tell what great things are

Griff Hamlin says he’s the one in the middle

in store for this powerful trio,” insists – you guessed it – Griff Hamlin. “Another album is in the works and a constant performing schedule is a given. So many good things have happened so fast and for good reason.

Many more will come.”

All that’s missing is the cowbell.

Sunday, 12-4 p.m. at Request Music in Wailuku

“Whale Rider” at the Kaahumanu 6, check showtimes, p.21 While the amazing events of the Maui Film Festival are still fresh on everyone’s minds, the standout to me will forever remain viewing Whale Rider on the greens and under the stars at the Celestial Cinema in Wailea. It is a film that has more heart and soul than any other I have seen in -- well, possibly ever, if not at least in a very long time. No pretentious descriptions needed here. Just redeem yourself and go see it.

[MUSIC] Often, well not often but one time, I did this thing out on the dance floor and for once, I felt like I fit in. It was sort of a head bob with an arm in the air and a hip bump. The girl I was dancing with gave me this look like, "Where did that come from?" and my look answered back, "Baby, I'm just gettin' started." I then proceeded to pee myself and fall over a buffet table but for a moment, just that moment, I was in. You can have that same feeling, that same experience at Request Music in Wailuku. DJ Twist and DJ Boomshot will be there spinning the best beats imaginable for your once in a lifetime moment in groovin' perfection. Who knows, you might even see me there looking for a relapse into the realm of keeping the beat and looking suave. Oh, to be coordinated and graceful. It's a life I'll never know. [IAN HOUSTON]

FILMCRITIQUE

Staring contest The Oscar-nominated Winged Migration is a virtuosi technical achievement in documentary filmmaking due to its astonishingly intimate photography of the migrations of numerous species of birds across the Earth's northern and southern hemispheres.

Actor-turned-director Jacques Perrin (actor in Z, and director on Microcosmos) brought together a crew of 450 and a dozen cinematographers with camera-fitted ultralight aircraft, gliders, helium balloons and remote-controlled models to record the tight-formation inflight journey of ducks, geese and roughly 50 other species of birds during their biannual migrations. The film gives a rare bird’s-eye assessment of our planet with bird migrations that travel up to 12,000 miles, but it fails to inform much about the varied species of fowl on display. Winged Migration's heavy-handed soundtrack of preachy new age music by Bruno Coulais becomes an annoyance to be tolerated, and its provincial bookend beginning and end seems prosaic in the face of the film's otherwise inspired cinematic achievements.

It's clear that Winged Migration's screenwriters Stephane Durand and Jacques Perrin have an ecological agenda by the amount of attention that they give to scenes of birds suffering in the wake of man's excesses. But some of that plethoric suffering came at the provocation of the filmmakers themselves. At the end of a long exhausting journey, a flock of ducks becomes prey for a group of hunters whom we discover in the film's closing credits were the filmmakers themselves. This movie was definitely not approved by any animal rights organization and the disclosure of its staged cruelty deflates some of the film's exhilarating effect. Although Winged Migration begins with a blurb informing us that "no special effects were used" in composing the film, many of the situations on display were staged and various liberties were taken in

the editing room to orchestrate circumstances that never occurred in any real time.

Jacques Perrin performs the documentary's voice-over narration to the detriment of the film due to a thick French accent that teeters on being indecipherable at times. Thankfully, there isn't much verbal description to be had as the camera switches between tracking different bird species without ceremony or comment. Indeed, there is something profoundly amateur in the way the film reduces the life cycle of birds into a crash course of migration. We watch birds battle against fierce rainstorms, get stuck in toxic chemical sludge and fall pray to bloodthirsty crabs but aren't given a sufficient context to allow for much empathy. The movie is both too much and not enough at the same time. There are far too many species of birds (an already notoriously disagreeable lot in the animal kingdom) to feel connected to their specific migratory lifestyle and not enough information is given to support the encyclopedic number of birds on display.

Winged Migration is a documentary that has been greatly overhyped because of its groundbreaking camera techniques. But after twenty minutes, the novelty wears off and you're left to ponder the clunky execution of the movie as a whole. The film could easily have been the cleansing meditation about the interaction between man and bird that the filmmakers intended if Perrin had focused on two divergent species of birds to follow an eschewed narration and musical embellishment. This not only would have served the film's overstated ecological agenda better, but it would also have greatly reduced the film's four-year production schedule.

The movie begins with a young boy releasing a goose from a fishing net in a pond somewhere in rural France, and ends with the boy returning to the pond to see the goose with a bit of the same netting still stuck on his foot. The goose represents a protagonist that got lost from the story while a bunch of other birds stole the show. As for the little boy, he didn't do such a good job of unfettering the goose after all.

Another budget sampler from Kung Fu Records with all the familiar trappings: Unreleased/demo tracks, CDRom videos and debuts for new label signees like The God Awfuls. Kung Fu is not known for signing bands who have any shred of originality or what-have-you but I give them props for the sorts of things they have been doing as a label with their new series of DVD live shows (which curiously doesn’t feature any of their own bands, hmm). The younger punk set will enjoy what’s going on in this sampler but the older folks will be extremely bored with it. Check out: Audio Karate, The Ataris, Useless ID and One Man Army. Skip: The Vandals, Anitfreeze, M16 and Tsunami Bomb. -Kung Fu Records

BILLY BRAGG “WORKERS PLAYTIME” You gotta love Billy’s weird British accent as it belts out Blue Collar ethic folk songs with tons of heart. I’ll admit I’ve always favored Billy Bragg’s love songs over his socio-political tunes but that doesn’t mean that one is better than the other. He has released quite a bit since this record, notably his work with Billy Bragg and The Blokes but it’s his work here that I really love. Dropkick Murphy’s are playing the same field now as Bragg was then. You need to hear this just to wash away all the acoustic rock leftover by that Chris Carraba fellow. –Elektra Records

CRIMPSHRINE “DUCT TAPE SOUP” There are two bands that truly put the East Bay on the map in the world of punk rock: Green Day and Operation Ivy. However, there was a band just as socially relevant and catchy as those two but not as commercially pliable. That band was Crimpshrine. Led by Jeff Ott and backed by Aaron Elliot (Cometbus), this band had their heart for community firmly planted on their sleeves. Blending tons of raw power and punk energy, they set the bar for bands looking for the middle ground between pop/punk and hardcore. Just listen to the skill of Aaron’s drums to Jeff’s guitar noodling with all the proactive lyrics thrown around. They were just as viable as Op Ivy was in their quest for community but, unfortunately, vastly overlooked. To this day, the band’s proceeds of this record go to three separate charities.

The East Bay scene of the late ‘80s was definitely the most fertile ground for punk rock kids who gave a damn. Listen to this and you’ll see what I mean. -Lookout Records

SLAPSTICK “S/T” Slapstick was definitely the Operation Ivy for Chicago. Equal parts of ska and punk and members who went on to start bands like The Alkaline Trio and The Lawrence Arms, Slapstick was probably seen as the start of something fresh and exciting at a time when Epitaph and Fat Wreck Chords’ bands dominated the interest of punk fans. Their songs were fast and unrelenting. Their ska songs in particular, were fantastically danceable. The one-up they had on Op Ivy, however, was a solid horn section that didn’t sound like they just came out of high school bandrooms. The strange thing is they only existed for three years. From 1993 to 1996. Yeah, they’re only THAT old. That’s not even counting the bands that led up to the bands they’re in now. Lots of history and energy and for fans of the genre, you can’t find much better than this. –Asian Man Records

RADIOHEAD “HAIL TO THE THIEF” Here I go again, infiltrating Gannon’s column with my own selfish musings! This CD is a continuation of everything I love about Radiohead: The moody, pseudoschizoid ambient sounds allowing the impassioned wailing of Thom Yorke to create a warped landscape of melody and emotion. An album swathed in electronic melancholy and art-rock guitar, Hail To The Thief falls comfortably somewhere in-between OK Computer’s edgy-psychedelic rock and Kid A’s weird experimental rock, Radiohead’s previous CDs. Definitely one of those albums that should be listened to a few times before making any conclusions. Kind of like a David Lynch movie, beautiful and bizarre -- some people get it and some people end up talking to themsleves in the street afterwards.

A&E

FILM

BAD HOBBITS DIE HARD My husband's a great guy, but we've lost romantic interest in each other. After 10 years together, I'm no supermodel, and he's as romantic as a refrigerator. I've fallen in love with someone else – Frodo Baggins, the lead Hobbit in the movie The Lord of the Rings. By that, I mean I took a movie character whose looks I like and fantasized his personality into the sort of man I'd always dreamed of. I developed this escape technique as a teenager and can't seem to break it. The fact is, real life is drab and fantasy is exciting. When my husband and I met, he made my fantasy boyfriend seem boring in comparison. If I force myself to focus on real life and my real-life man, maybe I could be happy. Without expensive therapy, how do I break up with my fantasy boyfriend forever?

--Dreaming of Middle Earth What happened, you logged into the famous dude fantasy store and all the Daniel DayLewises, Brad Pitts and Johnny Depps were taken? One would hope. Because, if your firstchoice fantasy is falling into the arms of a fourfoot dwarf with dirty fingernails, pointy ears and big hairy feet -- well, it's a good thing you didn't go into more detail about your reality, just in case anyone's reading this while eating.

In the movie, your unlikely hero nobly volunteered for a quest he didn't want and wobbled off in hopes of saving the world from big, black doom -- all the while looking very Bambi-inheadlights about the whole deal. Yes, in a world of Terminator 3s, you go for The Twerpinator. At least you're original. Despite Frodo's twerpiness, he does fit the mold of the Prince Charming type -- those guys who are supposed to "save" (bored, lethargic) damsels from their (dull) distress.

That's really what you're after, right? Glass slippers and all. Well, guess what? In real life, glass slippers give you corns.

If you want something from your husband, don't sit around waiting for him to notice the big comic strip thought bubble over your head, ask him for it: "Yo, hub, would you consider getting a small field of hair plugs implanted in the tops of your feet...just for me? How about doing that frat party trick where a guy walks on his knees with his shirt and pants arranged so he looks four feet tall?" The next step is asking him what he's into.

Sounds like it used to be giving you what you're into -- until you withdrew into your head with dwarf boy and locked your husband out. Gee, could that be contributing to what you describe as his current major appliance-like state? I wonder!

You got stuck on the four-foot stud by thinking about him constantly; unstick yourself by unthinking about him constantly. (Self-discipline, how kinky!) The moment he pops into your mind, swat him out and replace him with thoughts of your husband; for example: what you can do for your husband, ways you can have fun with your husband, and what's sexy about a man who isn't easily mistaken for a furry nightstand.

Regarding your desire to avoid "expensive therapy," how much is your marriage worth to you? $5? $50? $500? Should you reach your cutoff point, at least have the decency to upgrade your mental infidelity figure.

DA KINE CALENDAR

THE GRID

CLASSIFIEDS

ARIES: Being generous with your time and money will help you win friends. Things intensify with a sense of courage and drama.

Awaken the artist and lover within you. You can't help but do things on a grand scale.

Communication conflicts need mediation.

TAURUS: Your imagination will paint a big picture. In your meditations, you'll discover the things you love about home. Write down the plans for your next creative project. You're being asked to look at the details of your artistic potential.

GEMINI: Journeys by water are more attractive to you. Camoflauge yourself and be one with your natural surroundings. The weekend is best for romance and creative pursuits.

CANCER: Search for the nessessities and let go of the luxuries. Beware of fast talking salesmen. Take a chance on an uncharted adventure.

Realize that you may be lost for a reason. Get jiggy in the kitchen and create a culinary delight.

LEO: Life is expansive. The results of growth are coming home to rest. Exhileration along with growing pains is to be expected. You are the sign that is most associated with celebrations. Your warmth is contagious. Everybody wants to be your friend.

VIRGO: You've been promoted to the head of the class. Your intellectual prowess is in full swing from now through October 6. Mercury in Virgo helps us tend to life’s little details. Get ready to be more organized. Clear up debts and misunderstandings.

LIBRA: Enjoy some free-wheeling fun. See the people you want to see without feeling any restrictions. Allow yourself to make new friends. Your social life is in full bloom. No strings attatched relationships are more possible than you think.

SCORPIO: While you ascend to the top, make sure those that helped you get there join in your success. Stars aren't born but are made.

The best leaders lead less. Your creative resources will get your career running on a selfsatisfying level.

SAGITTARIUS: If you're not on a trip, you're tripping your brains off. Guard yourself against unwanted legal situations while you're out there partying. Falling in love with a visitor is more likely. Use your good fortune to help someone else. Cherish your luck, don't press it.

CAPRICORN: There are many cures for those in the state of being hot and bothered.

You run the gammet of cold showers, counseling, blind dates and escort services. The truth be known, you feel hurt and vunerable. Real deep love comes from a shared spiritual vision.

AQUARIUS: Enjoy the heat of your polar opposite Leo. Someone with a mind like yours deserves and needs someone with a heart like Leo. Don't dump your non Leo, just encourage them to show some passion and be willing to put on a show.

PISCES: Tweety Bird on steroids is what you've become. Or, you're the mouse that not only roars but knows karate as well.

Overconfidence can trick you. You will meet your goals. Just be realistic about how you're going to acheive them.
