Family Revives Salon in Maunaloa

rowing up, Leilani Kadowaki was bewildered by beauty salons. In her hometown of Maunaloa, there was a salon called Sheer Delight, and when people went in and emerged with new hairstyles, it puzzled her. “[I said,] ‘What are you guys doing in there, getting your hair all permed up in those curly things? The lady looks scary,’” Kadowaki remembers with a laugh. More than 20 years later, hairstyling is one of her passions, and she and her family are bringing the beauty business back to her hometown. Michelle and Raymond Hiro, Kadowaki’s aunt and uncle, helped her open a salon on 100 Maunaloa Highway, in the same spot as the salon of her childhood, which was converted into a Molokai Ranch security office and later went unused for more than a decade, according to Raymond.

The family’s business, Maunaloa Salon, officially opened on Nov. 22, offering hair and nail services for men, women and keiki. For Kadowaki and the Hiros, it was the perfect crossroads of talent and opportunity. According to Michelle, she and her husband had been looking for more business opportunities and felt a salon would meet a big need on Molokai. They also knew Kadowaki, a licensed hairstylist and nail technician, wanted to return to Molokai after living on Hawaii Island for nearly 10 years, so they decided to fund the salon. “She always missed the island,” Raymond said. “The majority of our family lives on Molokai. [We wanted] our niece Leilani to be able to come back home and do what is her passion, and at the same time raising her children.” Michelle, who owns Molokai Cellular in downtown Kaunakakai, has experience with business, while Raymond is the maintenance manager at Molokai

Ranch and was able to work on the water pipes in the salon. “It kinda worked out,” said Michelle. “It’s not like we never did this kind of stuff before.” While on Hawaii Island, Kadowaki apprenticed at Supercuts and attended Hytec School of Cosmetology. At the salon, she offers nearly 30 different hair and nail treatments, including buzz cuts, hair highlights, hot stone pedicures, gel polish manicures and eyebrow waxing. Since Molokai Ranch closed down in 2008 and left 120 residents without jobs on the west end, Maunaloa has been “a ghost town,” said Michelle. Raymond explained that he’s noticed a trend of businesses rising and falling in the town and hopes that the salon, along with neighboring businesses and the Ranch, can continue to grow and bring

hanks to his athletic talents, his heritage and more than 170 chicken katsu plates, local boy Haàloha Tanielu Aikala-Falealii became the first Farmer to represent Molokai football in American Samoa. Aikala-Falealii, a senior at Molokai High School, was selected to play for Team Hawaii in the Samoa Bowl, an annual game that pits Hawaii’s best Samoan football players against American Samoa’s all-stars. In the Samoa Bowl XII on Dec. 27, Team American Samoa won, 12-6. Part Hawaiian and part Samoan, Aikala-Falealii was able to honor both of his cultures in the Bowl, said his father, Sepulona Aikala-Falealii. Sepulona, a police officer, grew up in American Samoa, a U.S. territory with about 55,000 people and said most of his family still lives there. They attended the Samoa Bowl to cheer Haàloha on. “It’s pretty exciting, especially [going] for Christmas, because I can spend it with my grandpa,” said Haàloha before the game. He said the last time he’d been to American Samoa was around middle school. Samoa Bowl organizers first notified the family that Haàloha had been selected in the middle of November. The Aikala-Falealii and Kawano families organized a fund-

Why I fly with Makani Kai... “You folks go out of your way to make sure passengers have the best possible flying experience,” says Mikiala, “It makes us feel special, like we really matter.” Mikiala, who is a contract worker with the National Park Service in the Kalaupapa outreach program, recently opened Kupu A’e Molokai, a store run by “three moms.” She says what she really likes about Makani Kai is that, “The staff recognizes you…even the pilots…and they remember the last thing you were talking story about.”

Addressing Overfishing By Àha Kiole O Molokai Members Since statehood, the people of Molokai have relied on state government to manage Molokai's ocean resources. We are currently witnessing profound shortages in our subsistence gathering sources, which island families rely heavily on. We have fewer income opportunities and higher costs of living than most of the other islands. From the early 90s, an effort to slow down the noticeable losses from our once rich ecosystems was begun. Management by the DLNR has not yielded positive outcomes in terms of maintaining sustainable and healthy nearshore fisheries. Out of necessity and concern for our families, Molokai has independently generated its own island-wide conservation effort. We have adopted traditional Hawaiian management strategies because of the proven effectiveness of these methodologies. In a Community Based Subsistence Fishing Area (CBFSA) designation proposal for our entire Northwest side, Palaàu Moku residents are working to come up with best practices designed to manage their area intelligently. Increasingly, people have joined the campaign. We have spread the word about how much and when to take for ecosystem survival. Our efforts have taken root, and with a few exceptions, Molokai has an understanding of fishing pono. Because of this collective effort, our residents understood the need to take a huge step back. We watch and remind each other, point out spawning seasons, throwing back egg-laying females and the bigger reproductive staged fish. We catch and eat low population fish sparingly. We no longer advocate selling òpihi. We’ve had to manage this unprecedented paradigm shift on our own, not only without government help, but often

with administrative roadblocks. One of those roadblocks is the relentless usage of our nearshore resources by other-island commercial fishermen who are not aware of our conservation effort. Watching others help themselves indiscriminately to what Molokai has conscientiously elected to save for fishery replenishment has brought about feelings of extreme frustration. Subsistence fishermen have watched helplessly as the most threatened species are hauled off in frightening numbers that guarantee depletion. This issue has resulted in a very unfortunate circumstance in which our island residents, pushed to the limit, made choices that hurt others, themselves and their own families. We would like to ask those handling this pilikia to understand the whole circumstances in their deliberations and findings. Displacing the konohiki management system, state laws extending the right to fish in any area were created when resources were still plentiful. Clearly, this is no longer the case. The reason non-residents are making trips to our shorelines is because poor management and unrestrained free enterprise have caused unrecoverable losses in their own areas. The people of Molokai are trying to address resource shortage issues communally, but cannot do so in a bubble. Molokai residents do not want to be at risk while we work so hard to fix what is broken. We are not in favor of people having to take the law into their own hands. We are expecting this situation to bring about much needed acknowledgement from the state: Your support of our efforts to protect our no longer plentiful resources is long overdue. Please step forward and work with our island so no more of our families hurt by these kinds of occurrences.

Improve Your Cholesterol Levels By Jon Mikami, RPh, and Kelly Go, RPh | Molokai Drugs, Inc. Cholesterol is a soft, waxy substance in your blood. It increases your chance of heart disease, stroke and other problems. Many things may put you at risk for high cholesterol. You can’t control some of these risks such as your age, gender, or family history. Fortunately, the list of things you can control is longer; it includes your weight, diet, exercise, blood sugar and smoking. Maybe you’ve put on a few pounds in the last couple of years. Or your 2014 New Year’s resolutions were short-lived, making that Na Pu`uwai gym membership a bit of a waste. Don’t scold yourself. Just start over in 2015. The good news is some changes may give you a “two-fer.” For example, eating healthy foods can reduce the amount of cholesterol you are taking into your body. It can also help you lose weight, which lowers LDL (bad cholesterol). Try eating more fresh fruits, vegetables, and other foods high in fiber such as whole grains and beans. Also eat fewer foods that contain cholesterol, trans fats, or saturated fats such as fatty meats and whole milk, cream, butter, cheese, and ice cream. Increasing your exercise not only lowers your LDL, it also raises levels of HDL (good cholesterol), which carries bad cholesterol away. Take steps to enhance your chance of success, especially if exercise is a bit foreign to you. Gradually increase the intensity and length of your exercise routines, or find an exercise partner to help you stay motivated.

Sometimes lifestyle changes are simply not enough to get your cholesterol into a safe range. In these cases, your doctor may prescribe a special medicine to lower your cholesterol. Make sure you take it exactly the way your doctor directs. If you don’t, it may not work. Just remember, we can double check to make sure you’re on the right track. If cost is an issue, ask us whether a generic version is available. Statins are one type of medicine commonly prescribed for high cholesterol. Recent studies have added encouraging news about statins. For example, statins may help kids who have a genetic type of cholesterol disorder. They may also help boost survival rates after people have a certain type of stroke. Statins may even prevent common and serious complications from diabetes. They apparently protect against damage to small blood vessels that can lead to blindness or amputations. None of this means medicine gives you a free pass to smoke, overeat and be a couch potato. Instead, lifestyle changes can work together with medicine to improve your cholesterol levels even more. And, as you already know, these changes can really improve your overall quality of life. As always, if you have any questions, please see us at Molokai Drugs, Inc. Or, give us a call at 808-553-5790. Happy New Year 2015! Nothing herein constitutes medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, or is a substitute for professional advice. You should always seek the advice of your physician or other medical professional if you have questions or concerns about a medical condition.

RETAIL STORES Continued From pg. 1

waii-based clothing store is one of the few retail chains on Molokai, bringing in a wide selection of clothing that shoppers said would save them trips off-island. Molokai Middle School student Kaitlin DeRouin, who waited in line on the store’s opening day, said that she’d shopped at the Jeans Warehouse on Maui and was glad Molokai finally had one on island. However, for small local businesses not used to competing with larger chain corporations, the situation presented a unique challenge. “A lot of businesses separately sell different things, but Jeans Warehouse sells everything that we combined sell,” said Mahina Lopes, who co-owns Malama Surf Shop with Tete Dudoit. With clothing and accessories for juniors, women, men and keiki, Jeans Warehouse is “a one stop shop,” said Hiro. “That is really what Molokai needed in that sense, something where there is a lot of variety, but not over-saturating the entire market of the existing stores,” said Tanaka. Some businesses have noticed little to no changes in their sales. Maria Watanabe, owner of Imports Gift Shop, said she hasn’t seen a change in her store’s numbers. Lopes said she and Dudoit will have to wait for the busier months in winter and spring to determine whether or not their sales are affected by the presence of a larger chain store. However, some stores have already reported declines in the last three months. Molokai Cellular took such a hit that Hiro said she considered closing down. The shop is located in the same building as Jeans Warehouse, and, like its neighbor, sells phone accessories. One business owner who also sells low-priced clothing and wished to remain anonymous said she had to temporarily close up shop while she reworks her business plan. However, despite their struggles, most owners reiterated their desire to show aloha towards each other. “I know I affected other businesses,” said the anonymous owner, who first opened her shop eight years ago. “But they never made me feel bad about it.” Jeans Warehouse Chief Operating Officer Cindy Mikami, who has worked for the company for 31 years, said that the company can’t really adjust their merchandise and sell only a portion of their products, which could cause less impact to fellow Molokai retailers, because they have to buy in bulk. “We could look at it, but it is very diffi-

cult because we buy for all our stores,” said Mikami. “We get good prices because of the quantity we buy.” Tanaka, who has also seen her sales drop, nonetheless said she sees the logic in bringing in a larger company. Multiple Molokai businesses closed up shop in the same location in the past, and a store like Jeans Warehouse has the resources to pay its bills. Meanwhile, Mikami believes in the abilities of local businesses to bounce back. “I think competition is good, and I know the smaller retailers were wondering what’s gonna happen, but I think if they focus on their niche, they could still be successful,” she said. It’s exactly what Molokai’s businesses are beginning to do.

Fresh Methods Tanaka plans to start offering two new clothing lines each year.. The newest design, titled “Aloha `Aina,” is a collaboration between Tanaka; Henohea Linker, who creates jewelry as part of her business Kumu Henohea Native Bling; and Maile Naehu, who makes upcycled scarves for her business Leialoha by Maile. The anonymous business owner is turning to her personal talents to create more handmade products, including repurposed clothing. “It just so happens I’m not the most affordable anymore,” she said. “Sometimes you have to accept that and figure out something else.” Hiro switched from Mobi PCS to Boost Mobile, allowing her to sell a wider variety of phones, including waterproof models that she said local fishermen could use. She brought in Android tablets around Thanksgiving and sold four within half an hour. For Mikami, meeting the community’s needs is also the focus for Jeans Warehouse. When the store first arrived, she and several other employees went around town talking to residents. Men’s socks and underwear were in such high demand that Mikami said they made sure to include them in their Molokai store. Mikami said the store’s sales have been “exceeding expectations,” and she hopes the company can continue to sell its wares there for a long time. As the retail industry continues to develop with more businesses and different competition, local business owners are having to adapt and invent new approaches. But one thing is staying the same: their Molokai brand of business that always keeps the community in mind. “I definitely see all of the small businesses revamping to what they need to be,” said Tanaka. “…Whatever those new needs are, I hope that the existing small business owners will find that.”

SAMOA BOWL Continued From pg. 1 raiser on Dec. 3, cooking and delivering chicken katsu plate lunches all over town. They hoped to sell 130 to cover nearly $1,300 in travel, uniform and meal fees. By the end of the day they’d sold more than 170. “One fundraiser took care of everything and he had extra money after,” said Haàloha’s mother, Kapua Aikala-Falealii. “… It was a blessing.” This season, Haàloha played defensive lineman and fullback for the Farmers’ eight-player football squad, which finished second in the MIL. Kahale said Haàloha has matured as a player over the past couple of years. In this season’s championship game against Seabury, multiple players suffered injuries and cramps. Haàloha stepped in and had five carries for 32 yards, averaging a hefty six yards a carry. “He doesn’t attract or seek any attention,” said Kahale. “He’s just kind of a kid that just does what you expect him to do [with] no complaints and always works hard.” Haàloha, 17, comes from a family full of athletes with honors to their names. His oldest brother Haàheo, 22, was also selected for the Samoa Bowl in 2009 while playing football for King Kekaulike High School, but was waitlisted and didn’t play. Second oldest brother Hauòli, 19, was named an MIL All-Star in both volleyball and basketball as a Farmer. Younger sister and MHS junior Hepuakea, 16, was voted The Maui News MIL Player of

SALON Continued From pg. 1 life to Maunaloa. “We try to stay really close together and do what we can do to provide for our community,” said Raymond. “We need everything to cooperate out there. … When businesses flourish, the community flourishes.” Kadowaki said tourists and locals from all over the island have come to the salon. She and the Hiros already have plans to set up a location in Kaunakakai, estimating it will be in place this year. In addition to making things easier for

the Year for Division II girls’ basketball. Haiola, the youngest, is only 10, but Haàloha said she already hopes to play volleyball and softball. “It makes me push more,” said Haàloha of growing up in a house of athletic talent. According to Jim Higgins, one of six coaches to lead Team Hawaii, the first Samoa Bowl was played in 2003 at the suggestion of “sports-minded” former American Samoa Governor Togiola Tulafono, who hoped to give Samoan players in Hawaii a chance to reconnect with their roots. Selected players must be high school seniors of Samoan heritage. “We really go there to bring the kids home and let them stand on the soil that their ancestors farmed,” said Higgins, who coaches football at Oahu’s Campbell High School. “Because they’re all seniors at the time, it’s real pivotal time for them. … This trip kinda gives them a sense of identity, who they are, who they come from.” The teams share meals together, visit with the governor, and participate in workshops on culture and language. The Samoa Bowl has expanded to include competitions in volleyball, often including Samoan players from the mainland as well. Haàloha said getting to know so many different players from across the state was what he most enjoyed. “Our kids would never have had an opportunity to participate in these things if football was not available to them here on Molokai,” said Kahale. “That’s why we do what we do as coaches … because our kids deserve these opportunities.”

Michelle, who commutes to Kaunakakai daily from Maunaloa, they hope it will create more jobs. Meanwhile, Kadowaki, a mother of four, is keeping busy as the only employee of the Maunaloa Salon. The business she once found strange is now what she uses to bring people joy. “[I like] just making everybody feel beautiful, making them happy,” she said while painting a customer’s nails in turquoise and gold. The salon is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. For a full list of services and prices, visit Facebook.com/maunaloasalon, or call 808658-1714.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): In his novel Breakfast of Champions, Kurt Vonnegut describes a character, Ned Lingamon, who "had a penis eight hundred miles long and two hundred and ten miles in diameter, but practically all of it was in the fourth dimension." If there is any part of you that metaphorically resembles Lingamon, Aries, the coming months will be a favorable time to fix the problem. You finally have sufficient power and wisdom and feistiness to start expressing your latent capacities in practical ways . . . to manifest your hidden beauty in a tangible form . . . to bring your purely fourth-dimensional aspects all the way into the third dimension. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Novelist E. L. Doctorow says that the art of writing "is like driving at night in the fog. You can only see as far as your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way." This realistic yet hopeful assessment is true of many challenges, not just writing. The big picture of what you're trying to accomplish is often obscure. You wish you had the comfort of knowing exactly what you're doing every step of the way, but it seems that all you're allowed to know is the next step. Every now and then, however, you are blessed with an exception to the rule. Suddenly you get a glimpse of the whole story you're embedded in. It's like you're standing on a mountaintop drinking in the vast view of what lies behind you and before you. I suspect that this is one of those times for you, Taurus.

Tchaikovsky, Dostoevsky, and Michelangelo, they can learn to say Uzoamaka." The moral of the story, as far as you're concerned: This is no time to suppress your quirks and idiosyncrasies. That's rarely a good idea, but especially now. Say NO to making yourself more generic. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Doug Von Koss leads groups of people in sing-alongs. You don't have to be an accomplished vocalist to be part of his events, nor is it crucial that you know the lyrics and melodies to a large repertoire of songs. He strives to foster a "perfection-free zone." I encourage you to dwell in the midst of your own personal perfection-free zone everywhere you go this week, Libra.

At least temporarily, allow yourself the deep pleasure of ignoring everyone's expectations and demands. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): "I dream of lost vocabularies that might express some of what we no longer can," wrote Jack Gilbert in his poem "The Forgotten Dialects of the Heart." Judging from the current astrological omens, I'd say that you are close to accessing some of those lost vocabularies. You're more eloquent than usual. You have an enhanced power to find the right words to describe mysterious feelings and subtle thoughts. As a result of your expanded facility with language, you may be able to grasp truths that have been out of reach before now.

Three Steps to Make 2015 Great

Christmas in Kalaupapa

Opinion by Rick Baptiste

It was some minutes after 8 p.m. on Christmas Eve. We had just celebrated our first Christmas Mass in company with our sisters and brothers from our neighboring Congregational Church. Led by members of the St. John Vianney Choir visiting from Kailua, we sang the Hawaiian Doxology after the Blessing, then ended our Mass with a rousing chorus of “Go Tell It on the Mountain That Jesus Christ is Born.” Now it was time to gather in our parish hall, which is said to be part of St. Damien's original Kalaupapa town church. There we shared in a magnificent meal prepared by these same members of the St. John Vianney Choir. I wish they would visit us more often! The next morning, being Christmas Day, we again assembled for the celebration of Mass at 9 a.m. December had been a month of many notable happenings for us. I myself had spent a few days on Topside Molokai visiting my Sacred Hearts Brothers, my classmate, Father Bill Petrie, who is pastor of St. Damien as well as ambassador to the world, his venerable assistant and honorary mayor of Nassau in the Bahamas, Father Mike Kelly, and Brother

I am cordially inviting you to join me in making 2015 the best year of our lives. In preceding articles, my overriding theme is that we are too blessed to be stressed. I have found that whatever we focus on, more will come so let’s plant some good seeds in our garden. Just a reminder, we will use ALOHA as an acronym to give us daily practice that we can build on and in time we will see a good garden and a blessed island. “A” for Akahai – Kindness expressed with tenderness, “L” for Lokahi – Unity expressed with harmony, “O” for ‘Oluòlu – Agreeable expressed with modesty, “H” for Haàhaà – Humility expressed with modesty and the last “A” in Aloha for Ahonui – Patience expressed with perseverance. Step one in our daily process is to focus on A for akahai - kindness expressed with tenderness. Start your day with kindness in some way or fashion. For example, get up a few minutes earlier and make everyone breakfast as a possibility and greet each one with a smile and a warm hug. Step two is A for aware. Throughout your day be aware

By Father Pat Killilea | St. Francis, Kalaupapa

and look for other ways to be kind and remember to add a pinch of tenderness. When you are actively being kind then you are not complaining, explaining, or making trouble. Remember whatever we focus on we will get more of. Third step or third “A” will stand for apple. We are the Molokai Farmers and we all know we cannot expect a harvest of oranges if we plant apple seeds. Expectation is also very important so expect apples (good, blessings, etc). In other words there will be many negative situations that will confront you and you are just the right person to pull out a few weeds in our garden through kindness with tenderness. Keep planting seeds of Kindness each day and eventually more apples will appear. So expect apples and again remember what you focus on, more will come. If we follow it we reap the blessings and we will be well on our way to the very best 2015. Here is the “Bless Molokai” store website, cafepress.com/ BlessMolokai. Join me in thriving in 2015 instead of striving. All profits from Bless Molokai Store will be dedicated back to blessing Molokai. Don’t stress, just bless.

Charlie Kahaaanui, world famous landscaper. They serve good food on Topside. I should visit there more often. I also visited our Sacred Hearts Sisters in Kaimuki and while there, risked my life in the dentist's chair. I also purchased some cat food for Maka our neighborhood cat. He lives the life of Riley. In December, we celebrated the birthdays of Winnie Harada and Edwin Lalepali, and welcomed John Arruda for the holidays. I think he actually came to supervise the decoration of St. Francis Church for the Christmas celebration. Being 90 going on 19, he has earned that distinction. In December also we bade a fond farewell to two of our National Park personnel. Kellie left us to join her husband David in Colorado and Tim departed for California to place a ring on his bride's finger. We wish both aloha and say mahalo for all their contributions to Kalaupapa. We do not anticipate any wild celebration here to usher in the New Year but I would not be at all surprised if Mr. Heineken and Miss Corona make the rounds. Even Sean Bailey may show up! In any case (no pun intended) we rejoice in the spirit of this Christmas season and say Hau`oli makahiki hou to all of you. Aloha.
