DOH Director Vows Support for Kalaupapa

By Bianca Moragne | Staff Writer

S

tate Department of Health (DOH) Director Dr. Linda Rosen has a soft spot for Kaluapapa, but her term is nearing its end, and she visited the settlement last week to speak with residents there personally.

“I just want to let you know what a privilege it has been to be the director of the Department of Health and to have the privilege to be involved with Kalaupapa,” Rosen said.

Rosen, a political appointee, was appointed by Gov. Neil Abercrombie in February to fill a vacancy created by the death of former director Loretta Fuddy. With a new governor being elected in November, there will be a change in all of the appointed directors. When Abercrombie’s term ends at the close of this year, Rosen’s term will end on Dec. 1.

Rosen said she may still be reappointed for a longer term of service by the new governor.

“At this point, we don’t know who will win [the election for governor] and whether they have other folks in mind [to appoint] but I’m going to stay in the department and definitely have my interest here in Kalaupapa,” Rosen said. “If I am reappointed that would be terrific because I could continue to work with the patients here, and if not, I will certainly advocate for Kalaupapa with the new director.”

Most recently before her appointment as DOH director, she was department’s chief of the Emergency Medical Services and Injury Preven-

olokai High air riflery coaches Daniel Imakyure and Chinky Hubbard have come to the same conclusion. Both men, with extensive firearms backgrounds, have peered through the sights of their students’ air rifles, taken the 33-foot shot at miniscule paper targets and come away surprised by the experience.

“I tried it out myself,” said Hubbard, the Molokai girls’ coach. “It’s not that easy.”

“It’s actually pretty difficult,” boys’ coach Imakyure admitted.

This season, however, Molokai High School (MHS) student marksmen are making it look deceptively simple.

“These kids, they’re really good,” said Hubbard. “They’ve got good fundamentals from their previous coaches. We have some new shooters which are picking it up really well.”

Imakyure explained that some students familiar with shooting but new to the team have had to re-learn mechanics and positioning during the first half of the season, as air riflery requires different techniques from most firearms. The students have also gotten to try their hand at the program’s four new air rifles: Crosman Challenger PCPs that Hubbard said are “top of the

The students promote positive peer modeling, develop leadership skills, learn about the detrimental effects of drugs and alcohol and how to live a positive and healthy lifestyle, and learn the importance of giving back to the community.

They were joined in this photo by keiki and community members for the sign waving who came out to support the cause.

Every year, Alu Like organizes activities in September in observance of supporting those in recovery as well as host weekly information dissemination booths in front of FMC to bring education and awareness to our community, said Sasada.

New Coach, Same Goals for Cross Country

By Colleen Uechi | Staff Writer

L

ast week, Molokai High Cross Country Coach Mahina Hou Ross departed on board the Hokule`a. Now Molokai’s cross country runners, under the direction of interim coach Manu Adolpho, have dreams of a shorter but meaningful journey of their own: traveling to Oahu for the state cross country championships.

“We have been training hard as a team and putting in the miles needed to get us to where we want,” said senior Luke Kikukawa, who placed seventh overall in the Farmers’ Sept. 20 meet. “…We're expecting, if not our entire boys’ team, some to qualify for the state meet on Oahu.”

Recalling Kulaia History Molokai Canoe Festivals Committee News Release Historical records dating back to 1865 note Hawaiian outrigger canoe race competitions as one of the many events our kupuna took part in during annual la kulaia, days of festivities honoring the Kingdom of Hawaii and especially honoring our beloved monarchy. During that era, kulaia generally occurred once a year during a national holiday or birthday celebration of a mo`i (monarch).

After the overthrow of our beloved Hawaiian Kingdom, kulaia festivities changed focus and no longer celebrated the Kingdom and monarchy. In historical records, we see the shift from national celebration to simply canoe race competitions.

Therefore, pieces of our historic kulaia were lost and forgotten.

In the early years of the Molokai Hoe along with the Aloha Festivals Ho`olaule`a at Hale o Lono, Molokai had its own ver-

sion of the historic kulaia. The festivities lasted for a weekend with campsites from one end of Hale o Lono to the other and the spirit of `ohana and aloha radiated.

Molokai `ohana, paddlers, visitors, spectators, and many others who came from the neighbor islands, outer states, and other countries all gathered together.

In recent years, history was repeated; the idea of kulaia was forgotten, as the canoe races continued without the festival.

Wanting to revive the spirit of the festivals here on Molokai, a grassroots community group formed the Molokai Canoe Festivals Committee, whose members share the vision of bringing back the festivals to our community and sharing the true Molokai aloha and hospitality to our visiting brothers and sisters of the paddling `ohana. This practice of kulaia is an important cultural tradition that connects us to our ali`i and our kupuna.

There are changes to rules about cesspools and wastewater systems taking place, and the Hawaii State Department of Health (DOH) is soliciting public comments and holding meetings around the state, including Molokai.

Proposed changes include prohibiting the installation of new cesspools and requiring connections or upgrades of existing cesspools to septic systems within 180 days after sale of property.

There are roughly 90,000 cesspools statewide in Hawaii, with nearly 50,000 located on Hawaii Island, almost 14,000 on Kauai, more than 12,000 on Maui, more than 11,000 on Oahu, and more than 1,400 on Molokai. The untreated wastewater from cesspools can contaminate ground water, drinking water sources, streams and oceans with disease-causing pathogens, algae-causing nutrients, and other harmful substances. It is estimated that cesspools in

Molokai Fitness: Motivate Yourself

struggling to stay motivated, just remind yourself of that feeling.

When you think about your goals, always imagine that you have already achieved them. And don’t worry if sometimes you fail -- we learn more from failure than from success, so don’t let it stop you. Just pick yourself up and try again. I totally believe that there is always a way, if we are just really committed and we don’t give up.

Keep pushing the limits and you will feel motivated yourself to achieve more, and you will inspire others too.

Choose your smile, choose your healthy food and you will have endless energy that you can share with your ohana!

See you at my next nutrition workshop; don’t forget, it’s next Tuesday, Oct. 7, 6 p.m. at Home Pumehana. Let’s do this!

What is your motivation? What keeps you going and working towards your work, life, or health goals? What do you enjoy doing?

Your motivation comes from understanding the big “why” you are doing what you do. When you understand the reason why, you will get much more energized.

If you really want to achieve your goals, but you are lacking motivation, then take a moment and do this exercise. Close your eyes and just imagine that you have already reached your goal. Imagine how that feels. Imagine looking in the mirror and telling yourself, “I did it!”

It’s an amazing feeling, correct?

course that you’re running.”

Adolpho, with his background in high school cross country and college track and field, has picked up various strategies throughout the years for shaving seconds off a runner ’s time. On hills, many runners try to go faster and end up using much of their energy to reach the top. The key, Adolpho explained, is to hold a smooth, steady pace, conserving energy for the moment when most of the other runners are recovering from their uphill sprint.

For flat ground, another technique is known as “surging,” when runners speed up for a certain amount of time or distance. Because many runners naturally slow down as the race wears on, surging allows them to match or get closer to their initial pace.

Molokai’s newest coach is tasked with ingraining these strategies and more in his runners’ minds over the coming few weeks.

“It’s really late in the season…so it’s more honing down their strengths than it is improving on weaknesses,” said Adolpho of his pre-MIL Championships game plan.

Fortunately for the Farmers, the Keopuolani Pit, which is the venue for the MIL Championships, is a mostly flat course with a lot of pavement, according to Adolpho. The Pit, he said, is “a good course to run a fast time.”

Provided all goes well, Molokai’s runners can add another event to their calendars: the Oct. 31 State Championships.

Continued From pg. 1 Race statistics back the boys’ hopes, as Molokai has turned in multiple top three finishes in this season’s meets, with Keaoalono Ross and Markis-Grayson Aldridge joining Kikukawa as top 20 finishers. In addition to the boys, some of Molokai’s girls have landed in the top third of Maui Interscholastic League (MIL) meets and could also contend for places at state, said Adolpho. With four runners, the Lady Farmers fall just short of the five-runner team minimum but still compete as individuals.

With these goals in mind, Molokai’s runners are already making plans to raise funds for a possible trip to Oahu.

But before they can turn their attention to states, the Farmers must confront the mid-October MIL Championships with its thick field of competitors—over 100 vying for top spot in the three-mile race.

“Maui has a lot of competition, and we’re preparing [to] the best of our ability,” said junior Kori DeRouin, who’s been running for MHS since her freshman year.

For the Molokai High runners, preparing isn’t just limited to the numerous hill runs, sprints and weekly time trials typical of cross country practices.

“A lot of people think running is just that. It’s just running,” said Adolpho. “But there’s actually a lot of different strategies in the way you attack the

A New Invasive Species – Hala Scale

By Glenn I. Teves | County Extension Agent, UH CTAHR “Pala ka hala, momona ka wana” is a saying connecting activities on the land with those in the ocean. In this case, when the hala fruits are ripe, the sea urchin or wana is fat and ready to eat. Now, hala will need to overcome a new nemesis that may not allow its fruits to ripen.

In 1995, the Hala Scale was discovered in a shipment of hala plants from the South Pacific to Hana, Maui. From there, it quickly spread to other islands.

It was recently confirmed on Molokai in Puko`o and is believed to have been on the island for more than five years. The Hala Scale (Thysanococcus pandani) causes yellowing of and serious damage to Hala (Pandanus tectorius), resulting in leaf deformation, shortening of leaves, prop roots forming in unusual places, fruit deformation and loss of plant vigor.

This pest is considered a major pest of Hala and is expected to cause serious damage especially to older, weaker, more susceptible plants by sucking on the sap of plants. Long-term effects of scale attack on hala populations are likely to be severe, but only time will tell. At this point in time, many hala plants throughout the islands look sickly from this pest.

The South Pacific island of Rarotonga, in the Cook Islands, apparently lost its Hala in the 1920s from a similar accidental insect introduction.

An insect becomes a pest when its

natural enemies are not present. When many of these pests reach Hawaii, they may not have natural enemies here, and this allows their populations to explode.

However, there are many predators of other scale species already established in Hawaii, especially Coccinellids or Lady Bugs, and some of them many zero in on the Hala Scale. Others include tiny wasps that may parasitize adult scales and eggs, but the challenge is that many dislike salt air and windy conditions where Hala is found. Many scales are controlled with horticultural oils such as Safer’s Soap or Sunspray Superfine Oil which can suffocate them by clogging their breathing holes or spiracles.

Hala, also known as Pandanus or Screwpine, is an important canoe plant brought by the early Polynesians to Hawaii, and is used to weave cordage, thatching, mats, bags, bedding and decoration, and fruits are also eaten. It also has cultural uses as well. In Southeast Asia, leaves are used in curry dishes and also to flavor rice. Hala leaves contain a compound similar to Basmati rice, considered a delicacy in many parts of the world. Fruits are also consumed and made into drinks. The Micronesian varieties are noted for their great tasting fruits. The plant is dioecious; there are male and female trees. There are over 600 species of hala, and on many atolls, its importance is second only to coconuts.

October and November is fledging season for wedge-tailed shearwaters.

“Wedgies,” as they are affectionately called by wildlife biologists, are part of a mixed flock of seabirds that commercial fishermen rely upon to locate schools of ahi and other marketable fish. Young birds fledge from burrows excavated into coastal cliffs to life at sea. The uau kani, or wedge-tailed shearwater (Puffinus pacificus), is 17 inches in length from bill to tip of tail, with a wingspan of 38 inches. Adult birds leave coastal colonies at dawn to feed on fish and return after dark. Behavior while in these colonies is generally nocturnal and throughout the night birds emit weird moans, groans, and loud screams, thus they are nicknamed the “moaning bird.”

Wedge-tailed shearwaters nest on all the major and offshore islands in the Hawaiian chain by digging a burrow with their bill and feet or utilizing natural crevices: nesting sites are reused from year to year. The largest colony on Molokai lies hidden in the dunes of The Nature Conservancy’s Mo`omomi Preserve. It was discovered on Sept. 26, 1999 by Arleone Dibben-Young and U.S. Fish and Wildlife’s Calvin Willis while teaching students about Hawaii’s coastal plants. The colony is now actively managed by Nature Conservancy staff, resulting in more than 400 young birds fledged per season.

Egg laying begins mid-June, with one bright white egg forming the clutch.

Parents share the 53-day incubation period, usually in stints of seven to 10 days, and sometimes sit side-by-side. Chicks

AIR RIFLERY

Continued From pg. 1 line.” The school’s older lever pump guns require manually pumping in air before each shot, but Challengers can hold a set amount of carbon dioxide that will last multiple rounds.

Both Hubbard and Imakyure are in their first year as coaches. Amidst new equipment, new coaches and new teammates, shooters have meshed together well for a sport in which fourthyear shooter Michael Corpuz said it’s important to stay relaxed and simply enjoy the sport.

“We push ourselves hard enough to get [to our goal],” said Corpuz, a se-

nior who has never finished lower than sixth place this season. “We bond a lot.

Most of us are like brothers and sisters.”

With the MIL Championships nearing, Hubbard said that the Farmers are zoning in on prone (lying down) positioning, which is generally the easiest position in which to accumulate points, and standing, which is usually the hardest. Students are also judged on scores shot from the kneeling position. The league gives a set amount of shooting time for each position, with five minutes to “sight,” or take initial shots at a center target to ensure the rifle is shooting true. Each target includes a series of rings, with a bull’s-eye worth the most at 10 points. A good shooter, Imakyure said, will often average a score of low 90s in prone, low 80s in kneeling and

low 70s in standing.

In the team’s Oct. 2 meet -- a postal home site shoot that allowed schools to compete in their own gyms and submit scores to the MIL -- the Molokai girls finished fifth amongst the girls’ squads, with Hiilani Kanuha earning their highest individual shooter in tenth place. The boys’ team finished first and cracked 1,000 points for the first time this season, with Jershon Kaalekahi taking first place individually. This season, the closest any team has gotten to Molokai’s 1,005-point performance was St. Anthony’s boys’ score of 961 on Sept. 27.

The Farmers’ have two remaining meets before the Championships: one at St. Anthony’s on Oct. 11, and another postal home shoot in The Barn on Oct. 15.

Although postal shoots have ben-

efited MHS in multiple ways – eliminating travel costs, possible seasickness and misalignment of rifles during interisland ferry rides – junior and third-year shooter Kea`a Davis pointed out one disadvantage to not competing around other students.

“Seeing my opponents… the pressure of it makes me shoot better, I guess you could say,” Davis said. “I really like the pressure of competition.”

If the Molokai High air riflery teams continue the pattern of success from the season’s first half, they will indeed experience the pressure of competition, this time from fellow students at the state level.

Will

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Situation #1: If you meet resistance or doubt, say this: "Ha! This diversion can't slow me down, because I am in possession of an invisible magical sword!" And then brandish a few charismatic swipes of your sword to prove that you mean business. Situation #2: If angst and worry are preventing your allies from synchronizing their assets with yours, say this: "Begone, dread! For with the power of my wicked crazy songs, I am the destroyer of fear."

And then sing your wicked crazy songs. Situation #3: If you're finding it hard to discern the difference between useless, ugly monsters and useful, beautiful monsters, say this: "I am a useful, beautiful monster!" Your kind will flock to your side.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): In her poem "Advice to Myself," Louise Erdrich speaks of the human heart as "that place you don't even think of cleaning out. That closet stuffed with savage mementos." I invite you to use her observations as a prod, Taurus. Now is an excellent time to purge the savage mementos from your heart, and clean the whole place up as best as you can. You don't have to get all OCD about it. There's no need to scour and scrub until everything's spotless. Even a half-hearted effort will set in motion promising transformations in your love life.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): I hope you will learn more in the next eight months than you have ever before learned in a comparable period. I hope you will make a list of all the subjects you would love to study and all the skills you would love to master, and then devise a plan to gather the educational experiences with which you will reinvent yourself. I hope you will turn your curiosity on full-blast and go in quest of revelations and insights and epiphanies, smashing through the limits of your understanding as you explore the frontiers of sweet knowledge.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Three times a week, I take a hike along a rough path through an oak forest. I say it's rough because it's strewn with loose rocks. If I don't survey the ground as I move, I'm constantly turning my ankles. Or at least that was the case until last week. For two days, with the help of a rake, I cleared many of those bothersome obstacles off the trail. It took several hours, but now the way is smoother. My eyes are free to enjoy the sights that aren't so close to the ground. I recommend that you do similar work. Stop tolerating inconveniences and irritations that hobble you. Get your foundations in shape to serve you better.

comparable case of mistaken identity, Virgo. Be on the alert for unwarranted substitutions and problematic switcheroos.

Be a staunch fact-checker. Insist on verification.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): "I am naughtiest of all," wrote poet Emily Dickinson in a playful letter to Maggie Maher, dated October 1882. In accordance with the astrological omens, I authorize you to let that same declaration fly frequently from your own lips in the coming week. Feel free to invoke other variations on the theme of naughtiness, as well: "I am exploring the frontiers of naughtiness," for example, or "You need to be naughtier" (said to a person you'd like to get naughty with), or "Being naughty is my current spiritual practice."

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): "There's a way not to be broken that takes brokenness to find it," writes Naomi Shihab Nye in her poem "Cinco de Mayo." I suspect this describes your situation right now. The bad news is that you are feeling a bit broken. The good news is that this is a special kind of brokenness -- a brokenness that contains a valuable secret you have never been ready to learn before now. Allow yourself to feel the full intensity of the brokenness, and you will discover a way to never be broken like this again.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In a competitive game show on Japanese TV, 13 people had slabs of meat tied to their foreheads. They then poked their heads up from below, through holes in the floor of an elevated platform, where a hungry lizard was stalking around. But not one of the contestants stuck around when the lizard came to nibble the meat; they all ducked down out of their holes and fled to safety. That was probably wise, although it meant that the prize went unclaimed. Now I'm wondering, Sagittarius, about what might happen if a similar event were staged in your neighborhood.

I suspect there's a chance you would will yourself to stand calmly as the lizard feasted on the meat just inches from your eyes. As much as I admire that kind of poised courage, I want you to know that there are better ways to express it. Be on the lookout for noble challenges with goals that are truly worthy of you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Director Michael Bay makes big, loud, fast, melodramatic action films, including Armageddon, Pearl Harbor, and the four Transformers movies. The critics hate him, but he's unfazed. "I make movies for teenage boys," he says. "Oh, dear, what a crime," he adds sarcastically. I love that stance. He knows what he's good at, and makes no apologies for doing it. I recommend that you cop some of that attitude right now.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): While walking in San Francisco, I passed the Pacific Heights Health Club. The sign out front said, "Birthday suits tailored here." It was a witty reference to the idea that working out at a gym helps people get their naked bodies in good shape. I'd like to interpret the sign's message in a different way, and apply it to you. The time is right for you to get back in touch with your raw, original self, and give it the care and the fuel and the treats it has been missing. Who did you start out to be? What does your soul's blueprint say about who you must become? Home in on your source code and boost its signal.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): American author Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) was ahead of his time. He created the genre of the detective story and mastered the art of Gothic horror tales. According to the Internet Movie Database, 240 films have referenced themes from his work. British writer Aldous Huxley wasn't a fan of Poe, though. He said Poe was "too poetical -- the equivalent of wearing a diamond ring on every finger." Judging from the astrological omens, I suspect you may be at risk to lapse into a diamond-ring-on-every-finger phase yourself, Leo. While I am all in favor of you unveiling more of your radiant beauty, I'm hoping you won't go too PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Horror novelist Stephen King far. How about wearing diamond rings on just four of your has sold more than 350 million books. But when he was young and destitute, still honing his craft, his self-confidence fingers? was low. His breakthrough work was Carrie, about a teenage VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Republican Jody Hice is run- girl who develops telekinetic powers.

By Jesse Church Aloha all my fellow veterans and residents of Molokai, old Jesse here with all the veterans news and upcoming events.

Veterans, as you may or may not be aware, our doctor David Hafermann is retiring at the end of October. We have been very lucky to have him here on Molokai for a good many years, taking care of our aches and pains, and some very serious illness also, whenever we had a problem he has been there for us.

On Monday, Sept. 29, there was a meeting at the vet center with Wayne Pfeffer, the director for the VA Pacific Islands Health Care System, and there was a discussion about a clinic being here on Molokai. With the short time until Dr.

Hafermann retires, hopefully a solution to the problem can be found. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know and I will pass it on to Mr. Pfeffer.

I want all veterans to know that Dr. Hafermann is not leaving the island; he will continue to live here on Molokai, so you will see him at the Vet Center, and veterans events. I join with all of Molokai’s veterans in saying thank you, Dr. Haftermann, you took good care of us, now Molokai will take care of you, mahalo. I know there are a lot of things you wanted to do, when you retired, so now you can start all the projects you have been wanting to do. We hope that you enjoy retirement, and we will see you at the veterans center. Molokai’s veterans are truly blessed to be able to say that you are a resident of Molokai.

This event is free to the public. For more information call Inspector Richard Schonely at 553-8491.

The Molokai Fire Department invites the public to a Fire Prevention Week Demonstration on Saturday, Oct. 18 from 9 a.m. till 11 a.m. at the Kaunakakai Ball Park.

Missing our Hawaiian Flag We are mourning the loss of our Hawaiian flag at Kaunakakai School. On Monday, Sept. 22, our students forgot to take the flags down. On the following day, only the American flag was flying and our Hawaiian flag was missing. We are trying to teach our students responsibility and the importance of taking care of our flag, however, we all make mistakes. We were so sad to see that our Hawaiian flag was

missing and to think that someone in our community stole it. We now have to use one of our older, faded flags until we can order a new one. We would appreciate it if the flag was returned to our school, no questions asked. If anyone has information about our missing Hawaiian flag, please call us at 553-1730.

Thank you, Kaunakakai School

Cycling Safety I am writing on behalf of the cycling community of Molokai. Although we are small in number, and are often over looked by many, I feel that it is important for the public be aware that pedestrians, joggers, and cyclists share our road ways along with vehicles (although be it the shoulder).

There are those out there who feel that we do not have a right to the road, and therefore disregard our presence and safety.

On the afternoon of Monday, Sept. 29, I was forced off the shoulder by a vehicle.

The person driving the vehicle saw me less than a minute earlier as I passed the canoe shack where the vehicle waited to allow another vehicle to pass before entering the road way. The driver then drove toward town as they followed me to the intersection of Ala Malama and Maunaloa Highway. As the vehicle came along side hugging the white line of the shoulder, I moved

as far as possible to the right. The driver continued to cross the white line onto the shoulder, forcing me off the shoulder completely onto the grass.

This was a very dangerous situation, and I was very upset at that point. Avoiding any kind of situation, I continued on my way heading east without saying a word, all the time thinking about what had just happened. It may have been that this person was just not paying attention, or it may have been that this person just did not care.

I fear for my life the same as anyone. I have ridden my bike all across the country covering thousands of miles from coast to coast, but I have never encountered an act like this. Safety is everyone's concern.

Thank you and aloha, Ted Kanemitsu

Ke Aloha no, The Molokai Canoe Festivals Committee

Vote No Today there are over 1100 residents and 33 businesses and organizations on Molokai that oppose the Ballot Initiative that we’ll all be voting on come Nov. 4. The list continues to grow as more people understand the severe impact it will have to our island. To put this in perspective and how it will impact us, I’ve taken the liberty to highlight a few.

This will jeopardize a staggering 250 jobs here on Molokai alone, and affect another 750 to 1000 family members. To put this in perspective of impact, this is equal to 8900+ jobs on Maui, and more than 55,000 on Oahu. And with such small economies of scale here, this will lend us a very serious blow.

This will severely impact the more than 40 local Molokai vendors and their staff who depend on the business of the seed companies and its employees to maintain personnel or keep their businesses open. For example, Hikiola which services everyone on Molokai has publicly stated is

derives over 50 percent of its revenue from the seed companies. The local NAPA also has publicly stated it derives 30 percent of its business from the seed companies, and it is estimated that the two island gas stations could see a sales decrease of up to $1.3 million annually.

Three months ago, when state economist Eugene Tian publicly stated “…if the [seed] industry collapses, Molokai’s unemployment rate could jump to more than 18 percent,” Molokai’s unemployment rate was at 8.6 percent. Today, Molokai is at 14.1 percent, which triples other islands. If this ban were to pass, 11 percent more of the current Molokai workforce could be added to this already exorbitant rate.

There are those that would be “comfortable” with this type of loss on Molokai. If this concerns you like it does me, vote NO on Nov. 4.

Facts vs. Fiction on GMO Initiative “The Citizens Against the GMO Farming Ban” was created by Mycogen and Monsanto who hide behind these fake organizations across the country. The organizations are created to confuse you and these organizations can lie and not get in trouble for it. Small farmers are protected by the initiative and you won’t be arrested for growing a papaya. Read the bill.

Monsanto and Mycogen are chemical companies, not farmers. GMOs were created to sell more chemicals and GMOs can’t grow without using large amounts of chemicals. Each year more chemicals have to be used to keep growing GMOs. Regular farming only uses eight to 12 chemicals but GMO operations use 80 or more. Those 80 chemicals mix in the fields and create new chemicals and the EPA says they do not regulate or check on these new chemicals. Those chemicals don’t just stay in their fields on their crops. Those chemicals

spread into our waters, lands, and neighborhoods and the State found these chemicals in all of our surface waters. Residents have tested and find them in the tap water in their home and their own bloodstream.

Monsanto just paid $93 million dollars to a town in Alabama that they poisoned until the judge made them pay, they still lied about the poisoning for four decades.

Google it, and other places, too.

Is this what you want Maui and Molokai to be known for in the world? Are you willing to risk your life on their TV ads and propaganda?

Over 20,000 of us think it’s best to test these things. Are you willing to take a stand for this land and our way of life? Join us, vote yes on the GMO moratorium, protect your ohana.

Trina Meinsen, concerned citizen
