Gabbard to Assist Veterans in Completion of Center By Catherine Cluett | Editor-In-Chief how I can help.”

A

fter a nearly decade-long fight to build a veterans’ center on Molokai, including a few years in the construction phase, the building still isn’t finished. But Molokai veterans hope that a visit last week from Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, herself a combat veteran with the Hawaii National Guard, will help spur its completion. Inside the painted but empty interior of the building on Kaunakakai Place, Gabbard talked with members of Molokai Veterans Caring for Veterans (MVCV) about the challenges they are facing with both the center and receiving services on Molokai. She also honored the late MVCV Commander Larry Helm by visiting his family and promising her support to complete the center, which was his dream. “I absolutely want to help you,” Gabbard told veterans, while sitting with them on plastic chairs surrounded by piles of lumber. “I’ve been wanting to come see where you guys are and see

Veterans Center MVCV Vice-Commander Longie Dudoit said there’s a lot that still needs to be done. Appliances for the certified kitchen are awaiting installation, which he said he hopes will be completed in the next two months. He estimates installation costs to be $28,000, which will be covered by the last of the group’s building budget. “We got money to finish the inside,” he said. “The outside is what we really need funds for.” The county requires a paved parking lot before granting a permit of occupancy -- an undertaking that was priced at $115,000 last year, according to Dudoit. They also need to install drainage for the parking lot, gas tanks and hook-ups, and fire suppression on the roof once the kitchen is finished. The building’s electric system also still has to be completed. Dudoit said the wa-

ter hook-up should be done in the next week. Engraved tiles purchased by supporters as a fundraiser for the center last year will also be mounted on a wall outside. All of that could cost roughly $200,000 to $300,000, estimated Dudoit. He said veterans will be gathering this week to make a complete list of everything that still needs to be done, along with a line-item budget to send to Gabbard at her request. “We’re hoping to reach out and inform a lot of people… to raise awareness,” said Gabbard. “Government funds are going to take too long -- these vets have been waiting too long and the last thing I want to do is delay completion… We’re not talking about [raising] millions -- it’s doable.” She suggested using interactive, online funding platforms like Kickstarter. “We need to feature some stories of these guys… I know it will move

From Passion to Power

lam poetry has emerged in Molokai schools among students and teachers bringing literary talents to the microphone to spit poems from the depths of their souls. “When you write slam poetry, it’s an emphasis on your passions,” said MHS Hawaiian Language Immersion senior, `Apelila Ritte-Camara-Tangonan. “My passion and fire burns with my [Hawaiian] culture. I know a lot of people share the same fire and…for me self-expression through music, art or slam poetry rekindles my fire.” Ritte-Camara-Tangonan was one of 13 rising slam poets who threw down, going word for word in the MHS Library last Tuesday night in the first ever Hana Hou Poetry Slam Competition. “Slam poetry is performance poetry. It’s not Edgar Allen Poe, Shakespeare or what people might think it is in a school atmosphere," said Jocelyn Ng, poet facilitator of Oahu’s Pacific Tongues Youth Speaks Hawaii, a nonprofit that cultivates writers and spoken word performers and one of the event’s sponsors. “It’s someone’s truth, story, opinion and ideas that are melted into a poem and shared with others.” Ritte-Camara-Tangonan participated in slam poetry workshops held at MHS by Molokai slam poets Hano and Maile Naehu. She said she wants her poem to be the catalyst for passions within audience members and the Molokai community. “I want to show them that it’s not hard and it’s an emphasis on how you feel about any and everything,” RitteCamara-Tangonan said. “There’s never a wrong answer. This is beautiful.” Many of the poems performed

Tante’s Breaks Ground By Laura Pilz | Staff Writer

he sound of a jack hammer last Friday marked the official start to the rebuilding process after Hotel Molokai’s kitchen burned down almost two years ago. The machine, wielded by Hotel Manager Michael Drew and Tante Urban, owner of Tante’s Island cuisine, pummeled through a layer of concrete as a joyous cry arose from family, friends, guests and staff. Construction on the new kitchen is expected to begin on June 1, with completion scheduled early in the new year. Tante’s Island Cuisine, a familyoperated restaurant on Maui, took over management of the former Hula Shores Bar on April 15, in partnership with a Molokai family. Husband and wife Clint and Starlet Luczon Joao and Starlet’s sister Natalie Luczon are assisting with management of the bar and restaurant, now known as Tante’s at Hotel Molokai. The ground-breaking celebra-

tion opened with traditional protocol led by Pilipo Solatario. TLC Builders, LTD was introduced as the company in charge of construction. Project Manager Aaron Sluss of TLC expressed the company’s thanks for being given the opportunity and promised to do “everything we can to move this project forward in a timely and cost effective manner.” “This is a cornerstone on Molokai, a place where people can gather, make new friends and hang out with old friends,” said Hotel Molokai staff

olokai honored the retirement of two long-time county employees last week. Steven Arce is leaving the Public Works Department after 41 years of service, while Travis Tancayo put in 25 years with the Fire Department. “I love my job,” said Arce, who is retiring as Head of Public Works and Civil Defense on Molokai. “I worked to improve relationships with the public -- it wasn’t very good in the 70s.” For Tancayo, his job has brought a lot of travel that involved Hana, Na Pili, Lanai, and most recently as a Battalion Chief for Molokai, Lanai and West Maui. “I’ve been away a lot from my wife and family -- the commute to Maui has been challenging,” he said. “[But] the last five years in the department has changed in a positive way… I feel like I’m leaving [it] in good hands and created relation-

ships with different agencies that will be passed on.” Among those agencies is the Molokai Fire Task Force, which works across different county departments and groups to better protect the island from fire threats. Tancayo and Arce, both part of that effort, were honored at a luncheon held by the Task Force. “I’m glad I got to care for this community,” said Arce.

Gabbard also proposed requesting the assistance of members of the National Guard for labor to complete construction once the money is raised for the materials. “This is exciting -- the light at the end of the tunnel is visible,” she encouraged Molokai vets.

search,” Hagemann said. “Our coverage over time and the number of species is really unparalleled.” The Bishop Museum limits itself to species found in the Hawaiian Pacific and has the world’s best collection of Hawaiian birds. Parts of the collection predate collectors from larger European museums and date back to the 1850s, Hagemann said. “It’s important to preserve these things in perpetuity because we just don’t know the kinds of things they will yield in the future,” Hagemann said. While studying fossil collections is providing answers to extinction of native birds of the past, the endangerment of today’s living Hawaiian birds remains a predicament. Hawaii's native birds are threatened by the destruction of their habitats, invasive plant species and feral animals like pigs and goats. Habitat loss and predators are part of the problem, along with a lack of funding to figure out why populations are declining and how to stop it, Hageman said. “It’s extremely important to preserve habitat and cut down on the number of invasive species, that’s really what is hurting these birds now,” Hageman said. “This is a four billion year legacy that’s being destroyed. People think the situation is static but it’s happening now. These birds are disappearing right now.” During Hagemann’s visit, she also met with Molokai High School (MHS) students and sisters Lily and Sarah Jenkins, who have been assisting Dibben-Young with her wetland research since 2006. “It takes drive, initiative and responsibility,” Dibben-Young said. “My students have learned stuff that even PhDs have not learned by hanging out, learning about the birds, doing fieldwork and starting it at a young age.” Hagemann stressed the importance of getting the next generation involved in caring for native Hawaiian birds. She said Dibben-Young’s outreach and youth education is amazing and is a great need for the state. “I’m really excited that [DibbenYoung’s] got two students born and raised on Molokai who are very involved,” Hagemann said. “We need to get the next generation involved. They think someone else is handling it, but that needs to change. That’s really a problem here in Hawaii… and we have a lot of work to do.”

Veterans Corner By Jesse Church

Aloha my beloved veterans and fellow residents of Molokai, old Jesse here with all the veterans news and upcoming events. On Memorial Day, small flags mark the graves of service members at cemeteries across the country to honor the fallen. How did this tradition begin? During the Civil War, a widow in Knoxville, Tennessee named Laura D Richardson led a group of four women who formed a committee to obtain flowers to decorate 3,000 graves in the city’s national cemetery. However, the flowers that the group wanted to purchase were unavailable or out of season. One day, Richardson saw a small toy flag in a store window and got an idea. She bought the flags and persuaded a local lumber mill to make small wooden sticks as tiny flagpoles according to the Air Force Honor Guard’s training manual. On May 30, 1874, the U.S. saw the small flags at a national cemetery for the first time and it is now a tradition that has remained for 140 years. How many people got the correct answer for the question in the last column? The question was: Where in the Pacific were the Sandwich Islands? And the answer is Hawaii. This is an old name for the Hawaiian Islands. In 1778 British sea captain James Cook discovered them and named them for his good friend John Montague, the Earl of Sandwich. Now see if you can correctly answer this question: What are the two most active volca-

noes in Hawaii? No war veteran needs to be reminded that Memorial Day on May 26 is the day we pay homage to the brave men and women that we fought alongside of and who didn’t make it back home. On Memorial Day, we honor those courageous men and women who sacrificed their lives that we may live as free Americans. It is also the duty of America’s veterans to teach the children of the nation the importance of Memorial Day. But the job of teaching our children cannot be done by our veterans alone. We need the parents of America’s children to help. They need to teach their children how to memorialize our heroes and that their sacrifice is meaningless without remembrance. Please remember the five things that we must teach are: why remember, who we are remembering, what we are remembering, how do we remember and when do we remember. The reason this is so important is because some day, our country may ask your son or daughter to help defend our nation and they must know why. We send a big mahalo to all our military personnel stationed around the world, and especially those men and women that are in harm’s way. I also wanted to thank our veterans for all they have done for us and the people of Molokai for all the support you have always given them. I want you to all know that I love you dearly. If you have anything for the column please give old Jesse a call at 553-3323. So until next time, old Jesse sends you all a big mahalo. Aloha.

awaii’s native bird population is in peril, with 23 birds already extinct and more than 30 of the state’s avian species in danger of becoming extinct, according to a federal report. However, fossil and sub-fossil discoveries and collections of specimens are providing a wealth of information that may save the birds. The first fossil findings took place on Molokai over 40 years ago, putting the island at the forefront of action and bringing in notable inquisitive scientists. “It took millions of years for these birds to come to Hawaii and evolve into amazing species and once they’re gone, they’re gone,” said Molly Hagemann, the Bishop Museum’s vertebrate zoology collection manager. “It’s part of Hawaii and I’d love if there was more awareness and funding to try to help them.” The first major advance in bird paleontology in the Hawaiian Islands came with Joan Aidem's discovery of goose-like fossils in the Mo`omomi dunes of Molokai in 1971, according to Hagemann. This finding by Aidem, a Molokai resident and naturalist, started a flurry of fossil hunting discoveries throughout the islands. Hagemann visited Molokai last weekend to meet with Arleone DibbenYoung, Molokai’s water bird researcher, and view her extensive collection that will go to the Bishop Museum later this year. She also had the chance to meet Aidem.. The collection at the Bishop Museum offers a good range of birds from different geographic locations, time periods and species types. Hagemann said the museum currently holds 35,000 birds and bird specimens in their collection. Out of that number, there are 5,300 bird specimens of eggs, nests, stuffed skins, skeletons and sub-fossils, a fossil that hasn’t completed the mineralization process. Only 81 of those specimens have been received from Molokai since 1902, according to the museum’s database. Molokai’s contribution is about to change. Dibben-Young will add roughly 40 valuable water bird taxidermy specimens from Molokai to the museum increasing the collection dramatically. Hagemann said she is thrilled to get more native bird remains from Molokai to add to the collection and contribute to the evolutionary timeline. “The more comprehensive the collection is, the better it is for scientific re-

said Drew, “These companies and partnerships will create many lasting jobs for the people of Molokai.” Urban added that this is a historic event for Molokai and he wanted to thank the community for being so hospitable and receptive to the new management. Once construction is finished, visitors and locals alike will be able to experience “good food, good service and good price,” according to Urban.

Robotics Team Gets Congressional Praise

By Catherine Cluett | Editor-In-Chief

D

uring her visit to Molokai last week, Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard honored the Molokai Middle School Robotics Team for their accomplishments at the VEX IQ Robotics World Championships in California last month. The team came home ranked 10th in the world in the teamwork category and 17th for Qualifications out of 60 teams worldwide. Their results also qualify them to compete in the international competition this summer in Honolulu. “I think sometimes it can be easy for us… to take for granted how awesome all of you are, so I get the privilege of being able to tell you how awesome you are,” said Gabbard, “and how proud we are,

not just here on Molokai, not just here in Hawaii, but across the country to see how the talent and the skill of the students here is representing the strength of Hawaii…” Assisted by County Councilwoman Stacy Crivello, Gabbard presented the team with Congressional recognition. Coached by Kaeo Kawaa and Kahoiwai Kawaa, boys team members are Ilima Ka’awa-Richardson, Kreole Pawn-White and Nainoa Kahale and on the girls side, Molokai was represented by Sherie Kaili, Sarah Tancayo, and Tyreen Tengan. “You guys are representing the future…,” Gabbard told them. “This next generation of talent coming from Hawaii -- you are very proudly showing it off... to the world.”

urning litter from Mo'omomi into beautiful art, testing Kalama`ula waters for salinity and soil for pH levels and quizzing curious minds on the Kaunakakai Ahupua`a, students shared their research at the Molokai Digital Bus (MDB) capstone Ho`ike. Students soaked in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) research at the fourth annual capstone last Wednesday at Kulana `Oiwi. About 250 students collected, weighed and sorted data to showcase as part of the MDB Molokai Ho`ike project, a yearlong program that takes students out in the field in a mobile laboratory to experiment. Approximately 75 of those students came to the event to aid their kumu in presenting baseline research to other students, teachers and their ohana. “It has been really great because I got to see all the other booths, their [testing] areas and other native and invasive species,” said Maunaloa sixth grader Maria Angst. “I even got to see kids younger than me in booths learning about plant species and how to protect them.” Angst said she is happy to now have gained a better understanding on where she lives. “I never knew how many invasive species there are on Molokai and now I really want to try to prevent them and bring back all the native species that were here,” she said. Visiting Pala`au State Park to discover native plants can lead one into the history and culture of the Hawaiian people, Lima said. Molokai Middle School (MMS) students traveled to the area to examine plants and collect samples. “It inspired me because when I first went out to the site there wasn’t much that I knew about,” said seventh grader Ana Ludgate. “Once I got to learn about [the invasive and native plants] I got more into it and became better at identifying the plants.” With the Molokai Ho`ike project, 18 teachers aligned curriculum to implement experiments on sustainability through `ahupua`a studies.

Transition to Middle School

By Alison Place | School Renewal Specialist Ho`olauna defined is to “give an introduction to; to be friendly.” This year’s sixth grade Ho`olauna was held on Monday, May 12 at the Duke Maliu Regional Park. The purpose of the annual Ho`olauna is to transition the outgoing sixth graders to middle school. One hundred fifteen sixth graders from Kilohana, Kaunakakai, Kualapu`u and Maunaloa joined together to get to know one another and to learn more about what it means to be a Molokai Middle School (MMS) student. Referred to as the Class of 2020, these students were told they are the visionaries who have 20-20 vision to

create the world of the future while remembering the past. They will learn to work together, problem solve and have fun as an `ohana at MMS and later at Molokai High School. MMS Principal Gary Davidson welcomed the class and expressed how excited the school is to have them as part of their `ohana next school year. MMS Student Activities Coordinator Kelly Ka`awa-Richardson and members of the student council worked with the students and shared different team building activities to prepare them for Middle School. Finally, Riley Domingo led the students through some interactive and fun games while sharing the highlights of the Uplink Program.

related to personal experiences and Hawaiian sovereignty issues. “We really wanted to give these kids a different way to express their emotions and viewpoints on certain worldwide or personal issues,” Hano Naehu said. “Words have meaning. Words can evoke and express what you have deep down inside and create emotion for all of us.” Each poet had three minutes to recite original work in front of a panel of five judges, who scored the performances using Olympic-style voting, a score on a scale of one to 10, with 10 being the highest. The judges included Ng, Jason Mateo, Pacific Tongues executive director, Hawai`iloa Mowat, Molokai musician, Siri Anderson, retired librarian and Suliana Aki, UpwardBound Advisor. “Being from Molokai, I’ve seen a lot kids deal with being shamed on this island,” Mowat said. “To see them out on the stage…and expressing themselves is awesome for this little community. This is a wonderful way to have a voice and let out that emotion or aggression.” Mowat said slam poetry provides a constructive outlet for community members who may have a tough time expressing their struggles as a Hawaiian people. Ritte-Camara-Tangonan mirrored that sentiment, saying slam poetry is a great way for people to embrace their Hawaiian culture. “In my poem I talk about my culture and how being 50 percent Hawaiian has affected me,” she said. “It’s a number that limits us, to Homestead lands and certain privileges, and…I want [others] to feel proud of even the smallest

Older students from MMS, 'O Hina I Ka Malama Hawaiian Language Immersion and 12 students from Molokai High School (MHS) did soil and water analysis for salinity, nitrogen, phosphorus and other unique qualities “The teachers and their students wanted to do something hands-on and active so that people would be able to experience what they did throughout the year,” said U`ilani Lima, site coordinator for the MDB. “The students are able to be leaders, teachers and also go around learning from other research.” The MDB, launched in 2010, exposes local students to STEM career paths through projects and Hawaiian culturebased research. Since its launch in 2004, the Hawaii Source Education Outreach program, also known as the Digital Bus, has introduced 9,000 K-12 students and counting on Maui and Molokai to the wonders of hands-on experiments in their own backyards. The MDB is funded through the Alaka`ina Foundation, which develops future generation of leaders, especially those in rural areas, through educational initiatives, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association's Bay Watershed Education and Training program. The Digital Bus will extend to other classes at MHS next year if granted additional funding. Lima said the MBD builds leadership and ownership for students to address environmental issues happening on island now before it’s too late. “The more kids we can support with the Digital Bus the better,” Lima said. “If we start them young by the time they get to high school they’ll already be leaders. That is our hope.”

percentage of Hawaiian they have.” Diane Mokuau, MHS Librarian and advisor who helped put on the competition, said Pacific Tongues is hoping to partner with MHS next year. Mokuau wrote a grant with Pacific Tongues last month and if awarded the funds, the slam poetry nonprofit will visit Molokai three times to host workshops with MHS and MMS students and teachers. Donations from a MHS alumnus funded cash prizes for winning slam poets in three divisions. MMS seventh grader Evelyn Haase won $25 for the middle school and younger division. `Apelila Ritte-Camara-Tangonan won $50 for the high school division. MHS advisor and teacher Ric Ornellas won $75 for the adult division and donated his prize to the MHS library. In addition, the Molokai Arts Center awarded slammed ceramic trophies to winners. “The words on the page are from you and about your experiences, and they’ve got to slam the audience and embed themselves in that person’s heart and mind,” Haase said. “[My performance] wasn’t as much for the audience as it was to prove to myself that I could do this.” Slam poetry is a positive outlet for youth to share something that they can’t in sports, band or with their school counselor, but can share in their writing, Ng said. “It’s history in the making,” Ng said. “Watching people from all ages get on stage, from a little girl to Rick [Ornellas], it showed diversity and everyone in the community.” The event was sponsored by MHS, Molokai Middle School’s UPLINK and REACH programs, Molokai Arts Center, Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA) and Pacific Tongues.

Collard Greens By Glenn I. Teves | County Extension Agent, UH CTAHR On Molokai, the summer heat can overwhelm many of the vegetables that grow well in the winter. Collards or collard greens can grow at a time of the year when local greens struggle and are in short supply. A primitive member of the cabbage family, it belongs to the “Acephala” group meaning “cabbages without a head.” Collard is a corrupted term from the word “colewort” meaning “wild cabbage plant.” Native to the southern Mediterranean in an area called Asia Minor, a part of Turkey, it was carried in all directions and is popular in Portugal and Spain to the west, Bosnia, Montenegro, Croatia and Serbia to the east, and African and India to the south. The Spanish speaking countries call it Berza, while the Portuguese and Brazilians call it Couve. More heat-tolerant than its northern cousin, kale, collard greens are a favorite of the southern U.S. introduced by African slaves, and an important part of their unique cuisine. Some collards are called kale, both known for their high nutritional, antioxidant and anticancer properties, but collards can be distinguished from kale by their large rounded, cabbage-like leaves. Like kale, collards can be grown as a perennial in Hawaii and enjoyed for years, while age will not affect its flavor. Like other cabbages, it can also be salted or even fermented like sauerkraut or kim-chee to preserve them. Collards fit into the our local diet as an addition to stews, soups, saimin, and in stir fry dish-

es with bits of meat. Collards contain calcium oxalate, an irritant to some of our organs, and should be cooked before eating to break down this compound. Calcium oxalate, implicated with kidney stones through the accumulation and cementing of calcium into small stones, are found in many vegetables including kale, spinach, beets, chard, and others. Collards are a durable plant but can face similar pests as its cabbage cousins, such as Aphids, Imported Cabbage Worm, and Green Garden Loopers, but can be controlled with organic insecticides such as Bacillus thurengiensis or Neem. In wet areas, plants are susceptible to Black Rot, a bacteria that can spread and maintain itself in plant material and seeds. Powdery mildew, a whitish fungus in the surface of leaves can cause early dieback of leaves in certain seasons, but some varieties are more tolerant to this disease than others. There are many popular collard varieties. Hybrids include Flash, Hi Crop, Heavy Crop, Top Bunch, Bulldog, and Tiger, while open-pollinated varieties include Vates, Champion, Morris Heading, and Georgia. Based on a trial of commercial varieties in Florida, the most heat-tolerant and bolt-resistant were Champion, Vates, and Flash. Closely related varieties, with large rounded leaves, include Couve Tronchuda, Walking Stick Cabbage, and Galega de Folhas Lisas. Walking stick cabbage or kale is a popular variety in Hawaii because it can be grown as a permanent addition to a subsistence garden. It can reach a height of 10 feet, and is propagated by chopping the stem in sections like sugarcane and sticking it in the ground. The leaves are readily available as a constant food source. This crop is a great addition to a subsistence garden.

Miracle Girl Returns To Kalaupapa By Father Pat Killilea | St. Francis Church, Kalaupapa She stepped from Makani Kai Air with the agility of a New England Patriots' cheerleader and walked to Kalaupapa's Terminal 1 with the grace of a Hawaiian hula dancer. Audrey Toguchi, now 86 going on 26, credits her miraculous healing from lung cancer to the intercession of St. Damien. So she had come from her home in Aiea, Oahu on this day, May 10, to celebrate with us the feast day of St. Damien. It was on this same date in 1873 that Damien arrived here at the Hansen's disease settlement in Kalaupapa. When we arrived at St. Philomena's Church in Kalawao, the location of the original Hansen's disease settlement, St. Damien's relic had already been placed in the center of the sanctuary by the careful hands of Sister Alicia Damien OSF and Melie Watanuki. Quietly Audrey took her place in the church which had been twice enlarged by Damien's hands. Her casual blue hat may have concealed her halo but it did not veil her quietly peaceful face or her gentle humor. It was an honor to have her in our congregation for the celebration of our Mass in honor of St. Damien. It has been almost 10 years now since I first visited Kalaupapa and St. Philomena on July 9, 2004. On that memorable day, I had stood in the sanctuary in front of Damien's altar and had my picture taken along with one of our young Sacred Hearts men from California. Later that same day, we both sat on the back of Paul Harada's pickup truck and endured the bumpy ride up to the Kauhako crater. The memory of that rocky ride is forever engraved in my mind… and on my fragile tailbone. On

Right, Audrey Toguchi from Aiea, Oahu, and left, Dr. Maria DeVera, who works at Schofield Barracks. this day in May 2014 that same young man, Father Brian Guerrini, joined me in celebrating Mass and gave an inspiring homily to our large and enthusiastic congregation. After visiting Damien's grave accompanied by the customary photo taking, we made our way slowly back to the Kalaupapa settlement where we enjoyed a hearty lunch at McVeigh Hall. Life here in Kalaupapa is simple but we do enjoy our celebrations and our parties. It is good to celebrate our oneness in this special place. It had indeed been a special day for all of us, both residents and visitors, but now it was time for our visitors to take their leave of this sacred place. So we gathered at our little airport, as we often do, to say our alohas to our departing friends. Audrey gave me a big hug (wow!) and then with a twinkle in her eye turned to someone standing nearby and said something in the nature of, "He loves these squeezes!" Truthfully I do and I await her coming again.

MCHC News Release It’s that time of year again when the Friend Isle United Fund (FIUF) accepts grant applications from community projects, schools and organizations. While a 501(c)(3) IRS tax exemption is not necessary, the project requesting funds from FIUF must be nonprofit, and it must benefit the Molokai community. The deadline to apply for a grant is Wednesday, May 30. In order to be eligible for consideration, proposals must be submitted to the Molokai Community Service Council

(MCSC) by 5 p.m. via email, regular mail or hand delivery. In 2013, FIUF (a community service program of MCSC) distributed grants to 25 local nonprofit programs and schools. These programs touched the lives of virtually all of the island’s residents. Molokai projects can apply for grants of up to $1,500. Awards will be made to those that show they will be able to successfully complete the proposed project, and that they can manage FIUF funds responsibly. For more information or to apply, visit molokai.org or call MCSC at 553-3244.

Will

ARIES (March 21-April 19): I believe your persuasive powers will be stronger than usual in the weeks ahead. The words coming out of your mouth will sound especially interesting. I also suspect that your intelligence will get at least a temporary upgrade. The clarity of your thoughts will intensify. You will see truths you have been blind to in the past. Innovative solutions to long-running dilemmas are likely to occur to you. The only potential snag is that you might neglect to nurture your emotional riches. You could become a bit too dry and hard. But now that I've warned you of that possibility, let's hope you will take steps to ensure it won't happen. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): If there was a Hall of Fame for scientists, physicist Isaac Newton (1642-1727) would have been the charter member. He was like Elvis Presley and Chuck Berry were to rock and roll, like Babe Ruth was to baseball. The theory of gravity and the three laws of motion were his gifts to the world. He made major contributions to mathematics and optics, and was a central figure in defining modern science. There is also a legend that he invented the cat door, inspired by his pet felines. Whether or not that's true, it serves as an excellent metaphor for this horoscope. It's an excellent time for you to apply your finest talents and highest intelligence to dream up small, mundane, but practical innovations. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): During the next 12 months you will have exceptional opportunities to soak up knowledge, add to your skill set, and get the training you need to pursue interesting kinds of success in the coming six to eight years. What's the best way to prepare? Develop an exciting new plan for your future education. To get in the mood, try the following: make a list of your most promising but still unripe potentials; meditate on the subjects that evoke your greatest curiosity; brainstorm about what kinds of experiences would give you more control over your destiny; and study three people you know who have improved their lives by taking aggressive steps to enhance their proficiency. CANCER (June 21-July 22): The moon shows us a different phase every 24 hours, which makes it seem changeable. But in fact, not much actually happens on the moon. It has no atmosphere, no weather, no wind, no plant life, no seasons. There is some water, but it's all frozen. Is there anything like this in your own life, Cancerian? Something that on the surface of things seems to be in constant motion, but whose underlying state never actually shifts or develops? According to my analysis, now would be an excellent time for you to revise the way you understand this part of your world, and then update your relationship with it.

about claiming your full authority. It doesn't always come easy for you to shine your light and radiate your power. And yet you can most definitely learn to do so. The coming weeks will be an excellent time to make progress in this direction. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): "There is always an enormous temptation in all of life," writes Annie Dillard, "to diddle around making itsy-bitsy friends and meals and journeys for itsy-bitsy years on end . . . I won't have it. The world is wider than that in all directions, more dangerous and bitter, more extravagant and bright." Your assignment in the coming weeks, Libra, is to transcend whatever is itsy-bitsy about your life. The alternative? Head toward the frontier and drum up experiences that will thrill your heart and blow your mind. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): "We are all searching for someone whose demons play well with ours," writes novelist Heidi R. Kling. That's good advice for you to keep in mind these days, Scorpio. Those little imps and rascals that live within you may get you into bad trouble if they feel bored. But if you arrange for them to have play dates with the imps and rascals of people you trust, they are far more likely to get you into good trouble. They may even provide you with bits of gritty inspiration. What's that you say? You don't have any demons? Not true. Everyone has them. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): "When people tell you who they are, believe them," writes blogger Maria Popova (Brainpickings.org). "Just as importantly, however, when people try to tell you who you are, don’t believe them." Those suggestions are especially crucial for you to keep in mind these days. You are entering a phase when your best relationships will be up for review and revision and revitalization. To foster an environment in which intimacy will thrive, you've got to be extra receptive, curious, tolerant, and tender. That's all! Not hard, right? A good place to start is to proceed as if your allies know who they are better than you do -- even as you ask them to return the favor. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): "Kludge" (pronounced klooj) is a slang word that refers to a clumsy but effective fix for an engineering problem. It's a cobbled-together solution that works fine, at least temporarily, even though it is inelegant or seems farfetched. Let's use this concept in a metaphorical way to apply to you. I'm guessing that you will be a kludge master in the coming days. You will be skilled at making the best of mediocre situations. You may have surprising success at doing things that don't come naturally, and I bet you will find unexpected ways to correct glitches that no one else has any idea about how to fix. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): I hesitate to compare you to your fellow Aquarian Kim Jong-il. When he was alive and ruling North Korea, he was an egomaniacal tyrant. You're definitely not that. But there are certain descriptions of him in his official biography that remind me of the kinds of powers you may soon exhibit. He was called The Great Sun of Life and Highest Incarnation of Revolutionary Comradely Love, for instance. Titles like that might suit you. It is said that he invented the hamburger. He could command rain to fall from the sky. He once shot eleven holes-in-one in a single round of golf, was a master of gliding down waterslides, and never had to use a toilet because he produced no waste. You may be able to express comparable feats in the coming weeks. (Do it without falling prey to excessive pride, OK?)

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Have you thought of organizing a crowdfunding campaign to boost your pet project or labor of love? I suggest you get serious about it in the next four weeks. This coming phase of your cycle will be a favorable time to expand your audience, attract new allies, and build a buzz. You will have a sixth sense about how to wield your personal charm to serve your long-term goals. More than usual, your selfish interests will dovetail with the greater good -- perhaps PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Even if you had a sensitive, in unexpected ways. nurturing mommy when you were growing up, and even VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Years ago I had a Virgo friend if she continues to play an important role in your life, now who was a talented singer. She had technical skill, stylistic would be a good time to learn how to mother yourself betflair, and animal magnetism, making her worthy of being ter. You are finally ready to appreciate how important it is to a lead vocalist in almost any great band. And yet when she be your own primary caregiver. And I'm hoping you are no was asleep and had dreams of performing, she often found longer resistant to or embarrassed about the idea that part of herself standing in the shadows, barely visible and singing you is still like a child who needs unconditional love 24/7. So tentatively, while her back-up singers hogged the spotlight get started! Treat yourself with the expert tenderness that a at center stage. Moral of the story: Some of you Virgos are shy crafty maternal goddess would provide.

MHS Senior Awarded Scholarship Molokai High senior Caulin Forest Honomuni Nelson-Angelsea, a Mana`e boy who attended Kilohana Elementary and Aka`ula Charter School, was awarded $53,000 annually to attend the University of Rochester in New York, one of the nation’s top engineering and research universities. Caulin will dorm at the college in the northwestern part of New York State for the next four years, experiencing east coast winters firsthand. The University of Rochester, founded in 1850, enrolls approximately 5,600 undergraduates and 4,600 graduate students. In 1995, student enrollment was reduced and a more selective admissions process was adopted in which only about 30 percent of applicants are accepted.

Caulin and his family would like to thank all of the educators, staff, coaches, supporters, neighbors and friends that have helped and guided him on his academic journey. Special thanks to Heidi Jenkins, Kim Svetin, Cheryl Corbiel, Genesis Lodise, Monica Flores, Jonathan Smith, and Perry Buchalter for invaluable guidance, advice, and patience. Molokai is a wonderful island classroom and our youth have the benefit of many skilled, dedicated and talented teachers. Together they have surpassed expectations and defied stereotypes to create a generation of thoughtful and disciplined students. Congratulations Molokai on another success! Nelson-Angelsea Ohana

Around and Around This is in response to a rebuttal of my letter by Mr. Gilliland. Like drug addiction, admitting to a problem is the first step in attempting to address it. First with pineapple production from the 1920s to the mid-1980s, and seed corn from the 1960s to the present, Molokai has a legacy of pesticide use that has gone largely unmonitored due to the lack of regulatory personnel stationed here. While it’s easy to stick our heads in the sand and say we don’t have a problem, this is the worst thing we can do if we really care about the residents of Molokai. While I applaud Mr. Gilliland’s honesty in admitting to his worker’s “30 years of long-term exposure” to pesticides, I’m hopeful that Mycogen will take full responsibility for their longterm health. While nicotine sulfate or tobacco dust is considered a toxic pesticide, it cannot be legally used by certified organic farmers. Yes, a pesticide is still a pesticide, and the newer pesticides may be safer, but they have no track record so we cannot determine its long-term impact on humans or other organisms. Since we also don’t know what pesti-

cides are being used in corn seed production or the amounts applied, we have no way of ascertaining its impact on our island community without ongoing monitoring and research. With our unique year-round growing season, and year-round pesticide applications, we don’t fully understand the cumulative impact of these pesticides. In response to the comment that comparing pesticides from WW II to pesticides now is like comparing the sun to the moon, Dow Chemical (Mycogen) just received approval in January 2014 for its 2,4-D resistant genetically modified corn to be used in tandem with its herbicide, 2,4-D. This herbicide was developed at the beginning of World War II. Although pesticides may be an essential part of conventional agriculture, we live on islands and what goes around comes around and around, just like that funnel-shaped cloud Mr. Gilliland saw on the west side. Thank you for this opportunity to clarify my statements. Aloha NO, Glenn I. Teves

S.P.A.M Presents Da Mixed Plate Festivals The tables were filled with participants, laughter and merriment quickly spread through the establishment as familiar faces could be seen creating a broom or fitting their Haku’s perfectly on their head. On April 25, the Molokai Community Health Center was transformed into the first ever Mix Plate Event created and organized by the Suicide Preventers Around Molokai (S.P.A.M.). Did you know that suicide is generally preventable and that everyone plays a part in suicide prevention? The event’s main goal was to remind and restore the culture we have lost and to instill self worth by having cultural crafts, activities, and arts. Attendees enjoyed community bonding, entertainment and ono food. The S.P.A.M. group would like to give a big mahalo to the crafters who came and donated their time to our event; Aunty Valerie Dudoit-Temahaga (Hula), Aunty April Greenleaf (Organic sugar scrubs), Seanelle Luafalemana (Crafting), Terry Hill (Weaving), Aunty Sue Ann (Haku making), Paul Parker (Net Throwing), and Melanie Parker (Broom Making “KayKay”) Jana Sasada from Hou Ala Hou. For the ono food

We would also like to thank those who came and supported our cause, mahalo! Keep a look out for more events by S.P.A.M! Mala Tancayo, Genesis Ayau and Kealoha Hooper

Heartfelt Thanks Our family wishes to convey our sincerest appreciation for your prayers and support during our mom Charlotte Ann Kehaunani Pule’s passing. Thank you all for your hard work, helping hands and all the donations that poured in, into making our mom’s service a beautiful and blessed Celebration of Life. It was a powerful and uplifting day that you could feel the Lord’s presence and anointing on everyone that

was there. At the end of the day, we released bright red balloons to bid a fond farewell to our beloved mom, grandma, aunty, and devoted friend. We will truly miss her and cherish all the wonderful memories that we shared. Claudette Kaahanui, and Kimo, Iwa and Hana Pule

Thank you Editor’s note: Aunty Kehau Pule wrote this mahalo before her death. Thank you to all who made this celebration of life, a blessed and wonderful day. I love you all very much. A hui hou and God bless. Aunty Kehau

sions on, and possibly change school level rules and policies. They will have a voice and control student body budgets. Members will be asked to serve a semester term with the option to continue representing their class or enter into the regular wheel rotation. Parents and teachers, please encourage your sons, daughters and students to run for an office. Mahalo, Michael Hino Student Government Advisor

Homecoming for Resident Kermit “Tricky” Brown, son of Gladys Brown, returned home after 40 years to celebrate his 57th birthday. Born on Molokai on May 25, 1957 he attended Kaunakakai School and later transferred to Kamehameha Boys School where he graduated in 1975. He attended Williamette University in Salem, Oregon. He has worked in Los Angeles, San Antonio, Texas and New Orleans before coming back to Honolulu. He taught Drivers Education in Waianae for many years before

moving to Minnesota. He is now working in Fairmont, Minnesota with his wife, Lorelei and four step children. Molokai has always been his “hometown” so he is eager to visit his cousins, Clayton Ching and Lani Sahagun of Kaunakakai. Call 553-5375 to contact him while he is home for 10 days. Mahalo!
