Molokai Dispatch The August 7, 2013 - Volume 29, Issue 30 Flossie: Mixed Impacts M o lo k a i n e w s , M o lo k a i S t y l e - w w w. t h e m o lo k a i d i s patc h . co m By Jessica Ahles | Staff Writer W hile many considered Flossie a flop, the storm’s landfall last Monday still left its mark on Maui County. The storm caught the Central Pacific Hurricane Center’s attention on July 27, with varying near-hurricane wind speeds as high as 70 mph. Those conditions dwindled to a tropical depression before it hit Hawaii, Monday, July 29. However, its rain, lightning and average wind speed of 33 mph still caused damage and inconveniences on Molokai. East Molokai residents reported impassable flooding on Kamehameha V Highway near Kamalo for a short period Monday night. After lightning struck near the Paalau Power Plant’s generators, an island-wide power outage occurred for about an hour, according to Maui Electric Company spokeswoman Kau`i Awai-Dickson. “The control room lost power momentarily and the circuit that provides power to Molokai’s East end tripped offline causing a sudden drop in frequency,” Awai-Dickson said via email. Kawela Bridge construction area had more water than usual Tuesday morning after Flossie.

It was kapu, or forbidden, and their kupuna told them not to play in the grove or freshwater springs that open up in the ground beneath the towering trees. But today, those kupuna are concerned because they often see trucks driven into the grove, children swimming in the pools, tourists oblivious to the dangers of falling coconuts and rubbish littering the springs and grove. “We were all taught by our parents and our grandparents that we are not to go in there and play [in the grove],” said Kanani Negrillo of Kalamaula. “People that go in there, they don’t know that when you go in there you’ve got to respect the place. People don’t know you have to pule, and ask permission to come inside there.” Community members came together last Thursday to brainstorm how to better protect the grove as well as those who wish to view it. They shared stories of growing up with an instilled sense of respect for its historic heritage and how they have noticed others misusing the 150-year-old area today. “That grove is sacred,” said Aunty Kauwila Reyes, who lives near Kapuaiwa. “We have to do something because it’s being abused.” Though everyone at the meeting agreed that something needs to be done and several solutions were proposed, they stressed the need for the community to come together and educate younger generations who may be unaware of the grove’s safety hazards and rich cultural Kapuaiwa Coconut Grove is a culturally, historically and environmentally rich site background. that some residents believe is being misused.

In the fall of 1992, Ineke Bylsma and her friend Elizabeth Peters -- two young travelers from Holland -- were visiting Molokai as one stop of an around-the-globe tour. They ended up camping at Papohaku Beach for a few months, hitching rides to Kaunakakai to buy food. An article about the two was even printed in the Nov. 12, 1992 issue of The Molokai Dispatch, titled “What Are Two Ladies Like You Doing in a Paradise Like This?” They decided on Molokai as their Hawaiian stop because “we were told that Molokai was the most Hawaiian of all the islands and that we would find Hawaiian ‘culture’ on Molokai,” according to the Dispatch article. One day as they walking along the road with their thumbs out for a ride, a young American man named Chris Haase stopped to pick them Left, Ineke Haase of the Netherlands visited Molokai in 1992 and The Molokai Dispatch printed an article about the journey of her and her friend in the Nov. 12 issue.

He was visiting Molokai while working in Kaneohe on Oahu, finishing his PhD. “I was staying at the Sheraton Resort and was driving down and saw two beautiful girls,” chuckled Chris. “Thinking that it was a mirage, I decided to stop.” He drove them to the Coffees of Hawaii plantation, where they Full Circle Continued pg. 6 Molokai, you’re our One and Only.

One younger Kalamaula resident Environment Continued From pg. 1 “Protective measures on the generating units automatically shut the engines down resulting in the island-wide power outage.” All power was restored by 8:25 p.m. on Molokai, though power outages on Maui lingered in some areas until the following day. Maui County officials asked residents to limit water use as water tanks could not be filled until power was restored. However overall, Molokai residents experienced only minor disturbances. “It wasn’t that bad,” said Molokai resident Patrick “Bulla” Wainui. “The bad thing was that the power went out. But you know, whatever comes, comes.” Kawela resident Frances Feeter, who lives near Kawela Stream, has experienced frequent flooding on her property in the past from heavy rains overflowing the stream bed and bridge. She said while water did overflow the culvert of the Kawela Bridge currently under construction, it did not appear to cause any damage this time. “We stayed out late that night to monitor the bridge,” said Goodfellows Brothers project manager Todd Svetin. “It [the storm] put us back a little bit because we have to pick up debris and restore the bridge back to its original condition but we’ll start construction again [this week].” Bridge construction had been on hold since March due to state permitting delays and was scheduled to resume last Monday but that date was again pushed back after the storm. According to the Maui County Communications Director Rod Antone, Maui received the bulk of Flossie’s heat. Antone received reports of fallen trees, boulders, telephone poles and closures of Hana and Piilani highways as well as Haleakala National Park. Also, lightning left 10,000 residents without power, striking homes, and in one report, even a person inside. The Haiku resident had been washing dishes when he was struck but did not sustain major injury. No reports have been received from Lanai, Antone said. However, the county is still collecting data and stormrelated damage reports. The National Hurricane Center website lists methods to better prepare for extreme weather conditions at home and in the community: • Find if you live in an evacuation area and assess what risks and vulnerabilities your home has in case of high winds and flooding. You can find if your home is at risk by visiting floodsmart. gov. • Keep an updated contact list of county public safety officials, local hospitals, property insurance agents, local media stations, and the American Red Cross. • Plan to have a set meeting place for friends and family members if unexpected weather strikes should you be advised to stay indoors or evacuated. • Compile a disaster supply kit consisting of a minimum of a gallon of water for each person for up to three days, a three-day supply of non-perishable food, a first aid kit, flashlight, etc. For more suggested items, visit ready. gov. • Review your FEMA evacuation guidelines at ready.gov and leave immediately if ordered or consider available protection options if given the choice of staying at your home or evacuation. Community Contributed Insects are Beneficial to Humans By Joe Kennedy Let me give you another angle to look at these tiny little creatures called insects that have such a great influence on our environment. Insects pollinate a large percentage of the fruits and vegetables that you eat. Honeybees, moths, wasps, flies, and many other pollinating insect species are on serious decline in North America and Hawaii. Insects fertilize and enrich the soil. In the grand design of nature, they act as soil builders. They eat dead and rotting vegetation and animals. As they do this, they constantly create manure by digesting and excreting waste, just like horses and humans, making the soil fertile. Insects feed countless numbers of birds, animals and fish species, especially the young and the newly hatched. Even bears and pigs eat insect larvae. Insects also contribute to the production of medicines and antibodies by manipulating molds and bacteria. This information barely scratches the surface about insects in our world. I know insects can spread serious diseases and give painful bites but there are ways to handle the problems without blanketing everything with indiscriminate poisons. To protect yourself from mosqui- toes, a net is best. When you’re outside, cover up with clothing. Keep moving and they won’t land on you. Also, don’t let water stand around for more than a day. If you do, they will lay their eggs in it. Centipedes are creatures of habit. They want to stay under something wide, flat, and heavy . Some people have an irrational fear of centipedes and reach for the nearest can of bug killer without realizing that they could be causing immunity in some of them. Eliminating everything in your house and yard that’s wide, flat, heavy and slightly moist will do the job. The large, brown ants that get into your appliances are friendly and amazing -- they will actually kill all the fire ants in the area. If you can find a nest, usually in a rotten log, pick up the whole thing and put it on top of the fire ant nest. The next morning, there won’t be a single fire ant in the area. If you can’t find the big brown ants, use two tablespoons of cooking oil and one teaspoon of dish soap in a quart squirt container to control fire ants. Spray gently. They die pretty fast. House paint covering over the wood surfaces of your house acts like a magnet for termites. After a house fire, this is evident. I asked several carpenters about it and they all confirmed that termites prefer living under the paint. Instead of painting, you can use cooking oil (new or used) to preserve the wood. Please do research on insects and find out how beneficial they really are. sandwiches, salads & soups FE ATURING: French Dip, Triple De cker Club, Reuben, Cor n chowder, Por t ugese B ean Soup, Tof u S alad, Sout hwes t S alad • • • • C atering B ox Lunches Gif t Cer t if icates Holiday Par t y Tray s THIS WEEK’S SPECIAL $1 OFF Favorite Full Size Salad Tr y our “Grab n’ Go” Items!

This amazing weekend was made possible through Convoy of Hope Hawaii, the countless people, organizations, churches and businesses who when all was said and done genuinely reached out to help their neighbors through volunteering, sponsoring and donating of products and services. There were no labels and no political agendas just local people taking the time to take care of local people. It was more than just talk, it was action and lots of smiles. The spirit of “unity and aloha” was alive and well and we pray that it will continue not only in a setting of a “Godnormous” event but also in our simple everyday lives at home, school, work, etc. Mahalo to the “sea of volunteers” that came out with their blue t-shirts to help where they could, it was truly a “miracle” to witness! May we continue to find more ways to love and bring unity within our community and on our Island for we know a younger generation is right behind us to follow our lead. MAHALO MOLOKAI!

Later that evening, he invited them to the Sheraton for a hot meal -- a welcome commodity for the campers, added Ineke. For Chris, it was love at first sight. Unbeknownst to Ineke, Chris called his mother that night and told her he had met the girl he was going to marry. A few days after their meeting, Chris and Ineke flew together to Chris’ hometown of Chicago, and 14 days after they had met, Chris proposed. They were married in May 1993. Last week, Ineke and Chris Haase visited Molokai for the first time since their meeting on the island 20 years ago, bringing with them their two sons, ages 14 and 16. “Fate brought us together and fate brought us back,” said Chris. “It’s so wonderful to share what happened with the boys,” added Ineke. They spent a few days on Molokai, visiting the sites of their love The Molokai Dispatch • August 7, 2013 • story, even playfully reenacting the moment Chris picked up Ineke on the side of the road. “The trip has been just great,” said their older son, Mark. “I imagined it differently when they told us the stories.” Despite the fact that the Sheraton Resort is no longer open, Chris and Ineke said they are happy to see Molokai is still the way they remember it so fondly. “We were thrilled to see the beauty of Molokai is unchanged and that the friendliness has endured 20 years since we’ve been here,” said Chris. “For us it’s a very special place because of our meeting but also because we regard Molokai as the most beautiful island. Its warmth, culture and people are what make it a very special place.” The family lived in Chicago for many years, but now resides back in Ineke’s home country of the Netherlands. They visited Molokai for a few days last week before continuing their vacation on Maui. “We won’t wait another 20 years to come back,” they laughed.

Berry Company News Release Molokai schools helped a statewide effort to collect nearly 40,000 pounds of outdates telephone directories for recycling during a month-long program called Think Yellow, Go Green. The program was initiated by Hawaiian Telcom Yellow Pages and its sales agent, The Berry Company, LLC, along with schools on the islands of Hawaii, Kauai, Lanai, Maui and Molokai. This year marked the fifth annual recycling drive. The month-long environmental awareness program was driven by strong community support and invited the local schools to compete to collect the most outdated directories for recycling. The schools had the opportunity to win cash prizes for their students’ participation in the program, and award amounts varied depending on the school’s location. The Think Yellow, Go Green program creates an opportunity to teach students across the neighbor islands about the importance of recycling and giving reusable materials new life. Montessori Education Center of Hawaii collected the most outdated telephone directories on Hawaii Island, amassing nearly 2,900 outdated directories – and the school has an enrollment of 15 students. For the island of Molokai, Kaunakakai Elementary School came in first place with 1,179 books collected, and Kualapu`u School collected COMMUNITY CALENDAR WEEKlY EVENTS 604 books for second place. Hawaiian Telcom Yellow Pages and Berry teamed up with local food banks, including Hawaii Foodbank, Hawaii Foodbank – Kauai Branch, The Food Basket and the Maui Foodbank, to host a community food drive. By using heavierweight delivery bags that can be reused, Hawaiian Telcom Yellow Pages and Berry encouraged the community to fill the bags with nonperishable food items and deliver them to the participating food banks. “This year’s Think Yellow, Go Green program on the neighbor islands collected more than 25,000 directories for recycling, and each outdated directory we collect is kept out of the landfill,” said Ray Carulli, branch manager of the Hawaii division. “We want to thank the neighbor islands’ community and local schools for their outstanding support and for helping to preserve our local environment.” After the close of the contest, the recycled telephone directories were shipped to Oahu for recycling. Hawaiian Telcom Yellow Pages are 100 percent recyclable, and the materials are converted into an array of new products, including building insulation, writing and copier papers, newsprint, paper towels and more.

I recommend that you experiment with this subversive idea, Aries. Just for a week, see what happens if you devote yourself to making yourself feel really good. I mean risk going to extremes as you pursue happiness with focused zeal. Try this: Draw up a list of experiences that you know will give you intense pleasure, and indulge in them all without apology. And please don’t fret about the possible consequences of getting crazed with joy. Be assured that the cosmos is providing you with more slack than usual. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): “I am not washed and beautiful, in control of a shining world in which everything fits,” writes Taurus author Annie Dillard, “but instead am wandering awed about on a splintered wreck I’ve come to care for, whose gnawed trees breathe a delicate air.” I recommend you try on her perspective for size. For now, just forget about scrambling after perfection. At least temporarily, surrender any longing you might have for smooth propriety. Be willing to live without neat containment and polite decorum. Instead, be easy and breezy. Feel a generous acceptance for the messy beauty you’re embedded in. Love your life exactly as it is, with all of its paradoxes and mysteries. The Molokai Dispatch •August 7, 2013 • 9 you oppressed and inhibited even though your outward circumstances are technically unconstrained? If so, now’s the time to push for more freedom. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): What resounding triumphs and subtle transformations have you accomplished since your last birthday? How have you grown and changed? Are there any ways you have dwindled or drooped? The next few weeks will be an excellent time to take inventory of these things. Your own evaluations will be most important, of course. You’ve got to be the ultimate judge of your own character. But you should also solicit the feedback of people you trust. They may be able to help you see clues you’ve missed. If, after weighing all the evidence, you decide you’re pleased with how your life has unfolded these past ten to eleven months, I suggest you celebrate your success. Throw yourself a party or buy yourself a reward or climb to the top of a mountain and unleash a victory cry. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Monmouth Park in New Jersey hosts regular horse races from May through November. During one such event in 2010, a horse named Thewifenoseeverything finished first, just ahead of another nag named Thewifedoesntknow. I suspect that there’ll be a comparable outcome in your life sometime soon. Revelation will trump secrecy. Whoever is hiding information will lose out to anyone who sees and expresses the truth. I advise you to bet on the option that’s forthcoming and communicative, not the one that’s furtive and withholding. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You have both a poetic and a cosmic license to stretch yourself further. It’s best not to go too far, of course. You should stop yourself before you obliterate all boundaries and break all taboos and smash all precedents. But you’ve certainly got the blessings of fate if you seek to disregard some boundaries and shatter some taboos and outgrow some precedents. While you’re at it, you might also want to shed a few pinched expectations and escape an irrelevant limitation or two. It’s time to get as big and brave and brazen as you dare. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Studies show that when you’re driving a car, your safest speed is five miles per hour higher than the average rate of traffic. Faster than that, though, and the danger level rises. Traveling more slowly than everyone else on the road also increases your risk of having an accident. Applying these ideas metaphorically, I’d like to suggest you take a similar approach as you weave your way through life’s challenges in the coming week. Don’t dawdle and plod. Move a little swifter than everyone else, but don’t CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): When I was 19, a thug race along at a breakneck pace. shot me in the butt with a shotgun at close range.

I’m thinking of something like Laughing Tiger or Lucky PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Some people put their faith Lion or Wily Wildcat. in religion or science or political ideologies. English novelist VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): African-American jazz singer J.G. Ballard placed his faith elsewhere: in the imagination. “I Billie Holiday was the great-granddaughter of a slave.

Our coaches were Kenny Adachi, Kawehi Horner, Luana Santiago, Joe Yamamoto, Anas Balbas, Kekai Adachi, Alika Balbas, and team mom Solana Adachi. In our pool there were four teams. Many of these teams have tryouts to have the best players, travel off-island and to the mainland, and play almost year round. With only two months to practice and to learn as much as we can, we finished in our pool with a 2-2 record. Third place to all of us was victory. “Yay! We won,” was the response from Kapua Lee. We also had the opportunity to play in the “advance pool” after a team had withdrawn from the tournament. We lost, but we did great! It was an awesome experience for us, our coaches, and our families. The team bonded through two months of practices and more so during our stay on Maui. The experience has taught us skills, fundamentals, and team work. We can’t forget having fun—dumping ice cold water on Coach Kenny, deflating air mattresses, and rocking out to “This Girl is on Fiyah!” in the van at the gas station. We would like to send a huge mahalo to our families for supporting us through hours of practice, making it possible to play and travel, and traveling to Maui to watch and cheer us on. We would like to thank the following individuals for their donations and contributions: Roy and Faith Horner, Lloyd Yonemura, Sonny and Kim Kaai, Beverly Pauole-Moore, Noel Motas, Molokai Minimart, 3K Designs, Meiling Adachi, Coach Kawehi, Minky Hoopai, Mamo Hussey, Ke`eaumoku and U`i Kapu from Na`aikane `O Maui Cultural Hall in Lahaina, Joe and Joy Cariaga, Damian and Sharis, Shane Bush, Mahailia and Manono Rapanot-McGuire, iCandie Softball, and the Lahaina Girls Softball Club.

Gomes-Madela had opportunity to join her two brothers at the Kamehameha Summer Schools program on Oahu. With the gratitude and financial assistance of the staff at the Queen Lili`uokalani Children’s Center on Molokai as well as on Oahu, she was able to attend a strict morning session and the afternoon performing arts academy (PAA) until 4 p.m. Waking up at 5 a.m. every morning to catch the bus to school was definitely something she had to get used to and later was able to do on her own. The summer session lasted about five weeks. Over the course of these five weeks, she met new friends, gained new experiences, and studied among other youth from all over Hawaii.
