hile the Maui County Council has yet to decide exactly
what type of assistance to
extend to Molokai’s floundering ferry
system, councilmembers are nearly
unanimous in their support of the ferry’s operations.
At their April 7 meeting, councilmembers passed a resolution urging
Mayor Alan Arakawa to seek a subsidy for the ferry, which the Lahaina
Cruise Company (LCC) reports has
lost both riders and funds over the
past year.
Councilmember Stacy Crivello introduced the resolution, which asked
the mayor to propose an amendment
to the fiscal year 2015 budget to appropriate $500,000 to the ferry. The
money would come from the county’s
Economic Development Revolving
Fund (EDRF), which, according to the
resolution, currently has an estimated
balance of $1 million.
“All this resolution is asking at
this time is for our mayor to please
take a look at … what can be available
from the economic revolving fund,”
said Crivello during the meeting. “The
final decision really comes from the
mayor if he wishes to submit some
sort of amendment.”
During the meeting, residents offered testimony remotely from Molokai or submitted letters in support of
the ferry and the resolution. The ferry,
they said, supports tourism, education
and jobs.
Philip Kikukawa, owner of Molokai Bicycle, wrote that the Molokai
Princess’s daily routes encourages
ecotourism by allowing visitors longer
bike rental options. Kathy Flynn wrote
that students, sports teams and other
residents and organizations “would be
negatively impacted” if the ferry were
to shut down.
“Loss of ferry service to our island
will result in loss of jobs to Molokai
residents at a time when our economy
is extremely frail,” she said in her letter of support.
Multiple councilmembers also
expressed their support for the ferry.
However, while Councilmember Don
Guzman echoed these sentiments,
he felt that the council wasn’t yet in
a position to vote on the resolution.
When bills are introduced at council
meetings, they’re usually referred to a
committee, said Maui County Council
Communication Director Kit Zulueta.
“I don’t think as a council we’ve
received all the information needed
to thoroughly and freely debate this
issue at council level,” said Guzman.
“… I do understand the situation with
constituents to travel back and forth.
I just need more information to make
that informed decision.”
However, Guzman’s motion to
send the resolution to a committee first
was voted down. Since the resolution
had “no force and effect of law,” the
council determined it was within the

epresentatives of NextEra, the
Florida-based energy company proposing a merger with
Hawaiian Electric, visited Molokai
last week with plans to hold an open
house to meet residents and answer
questions. Concerned community
members, however, had other plans.
Standing in a circle amid NextEra’s
large, colorful posters and blue-shirted
staff, local attendees requested a meeting
format in which all their answers could
be answered at once and heard by all.
“We want to know what is going
on, as a group – that’s Molokai style,”
said local activist Walter Ritte.
NextEra officials, joined by Maui
Electric representatives, obliged. With
no seating planned for the open house
format, everyone stood for the next three
hours and discussed the merger and its
implications for Hawaii’s energy future.
Many residents wondered how the
company could help Molokai’s energy
challenges and current limitations on
rooftop solar through Maui Electric’s
Net Energy Metering program. The is-
land has the highest percentage of rooftop solar anywhere in the nation, boasting 51 percent compared to peak energy
demand.
“You guys are truly ground zero for
distributed generation penetration [rooftop solar],” said NextEra Hawaii President Eric Gleason. “We don’t have the
silver bullet for [Molokai’s energy challenges]… I’m not going to tell you we
can wave the magic wand but we can
bring some additional tools to the table.”
He said being a large company,
however, they can buy equipment and
supplies more cheaply, and with a higher credit rating than Hawaiian Electric,
they can access capital at lower rates,
thus helping Hawaiian Electric lower
their operating costs.
‘Think Small’
The proposed $4.3 million merger
process began in December, said Steve
Stengel, NextEra Energy Resources director of communications.
“We’re in month four since we announced the transaction,” said Stengel,

ngoing efforts to protect Mauna
Kea’s peak, considered sacred
by Native Hawaiians, from an
18-story tall structure called Thirty Meter Telescope, has gone international,
with Molokai residents joining in the
protests and social media buzz.
Pictured above, local community members rallied along Maunaloa Highway last
week, holding signs and raising awareness.
Mauna Kea’s peak is viewed as one of
the most sacred sites in Hawaii, and Molo-
kai activist Walter Ritte is leading efforts to
protect it from a 14th telescope.
“There’s certain places where you just
cannot compromise anymore. There’s just
too much that’s been lost in the Hawaiian
community. So I think this is gonna be one
of those positions where the Hawaiians
are gonna come out and demand that they
protect this sacred mountain. And I think
we’re gonna win,” Ritte told KHON2.
Called the world’s largest telescope,

Dudoit
officially
stepped in as Coordinator of the University
of Hawaii’s Maui College,
Molokai site (UHMCM).
And while new to the job,
the Molokai High graduate and sevenyear UHMCM employee is no stranger to
the community she serves.
“Kelley is the best of both worlds,
both Molokai and UH,” said former coordinator Donna Haytko-Paoa, who retired
at the end of last year. “She’s about staying
on the island and taking the long haul.”
After Haytko-Paoa retired last year,
Dudoit applied for the coordinator position, and she underwent an interview
with a screening committee before being
chosen. Her first day of work was April 1.
Dudoit, who previously held the position
of Institutional Support at the college, said
her career in education has been an unexpected path that she grew to love.
“If anybody ever asked me what I
wanted to be when I grow up, I would
never have envisioned that this would be
my future,” said Dudoit. “… Once I started [at the college] I immediately loved it.
It serves a good purpose for the community. It’s just a great fit and I may be here
for the rest of my life.”
Dudoit was born and raised on the
island, and after graduating from Molokai
High School in 2001, she went on to receive her Bachelor’s in business management from Chaminade University in 2004.
She said she always knew that she wanted
to come home to Molokai, and after two

Support for Independent
Electricity
IAM News Release
I Aloha Molokai (IAM) applauds and
heartily supports Maui Mayor Alan Arakawa’s decision to explore the creation of an
independent electric utility for the islands
of Maui County.
As we understand it, the Mayor’s proposal would involve purchasing MECO
and creating either public utilities or co-ops
similar to KIUC on Kauai. IAM would be
happy to assist with this effort in any way
we can.
IAM has followed the melodramatic
negotiations between the HECO companies and Florida-based energy giant NextEra with increasing concern. We share the
Mayor’s skepticism as to just exactly how
this buy-out would benefit Hawaii ratepayers. Our state has struggled for decades
to get the HECO companies to upgrade obsolete equipment, lower our outrageously
high utility bills, and develop a plausible
business plan for converting to renewable
energy. It is hard to see how a much larger
and more powerful monopoly, with no
roots in the local community, will produce
better results or be any easier to control.
Common sense suggests that we are
unlikely to reach the goal of energy independence and sustainability by increasing
our dependence on powerful outside interests. IAM agrees with the Mayor that the
best energy solutions for Maui County will
be those we create for ourselves.

in an interview prior the meeting, adding
that because the company is still in the
early stages of the merger, a lot of communication still needs to take place in order to
understand the priorities and needs of customers.
Officials came ready to discuss the big
numbers.
“We’ve committed to saving of a total
of $60 million [across the state] in the first
three years,” said Gleason. “We’re in the
process of becoming more specific about
that.”
But Molokai residents wanted to hear
specifics, urging the multi-billion-dollar
company -- known for larger-scale renewable energy projects -- to “think small.”
“I think you need to do your homework in terms of each of the islands are
different,” said Cheryl Corbiell, a member
of the local energy advocacy group I Aloha
Molokai. “You’re not going to have a blanket solution for Oahu, Maui, Big Island and
here -- we’re different…. Big is not better on
this island.”
Matt Yamashita, an independent solar
sales representative, agreed, explaining that
Molokai has been looking at what it means
to be sustainable in many areas, including
in terms of food, economy and energy.
“I think as a community, we’ve all
come to see very clearly that sustainability
is about being on that local, small community scale,” he said. “So when you look at
energy sustainability and that energy is the
highest cost of living for us on this island,
the answer is not to go bigger and corporate and to deal with someone that’s based
in another state. The answer is to go local
and smaller. That’s why distributed, rooftop solar makes sense for us.”
Gleason admitted that there’s a lot the
company still has to learn, and emphasized
that’s what this process is for. He also explained that as a merger, NextEra is committed to Maui Electric’s proposed plan for
the coming years, which representatives
brought to Molokai residents last month.
Sharon Suzuki, president of Maui
Electric, said that plan includes a smart grid
program, a switch to 50 percent Liquefied
Natural Gas (LNG) in 2018, conversion to
biofuel for the other half of the island’s diesel generators in 2023, and increasing solar
photovoltaic energy installed on Molokai.
Suzuki said those plans are not set in stone,
and still subject to change and feedback.
“We didn’t come here with all the
answers,” said Gleason. “We didn’t come
here with, ‘here’s our plan for Molokai, and
here’s what the price is going to be.’”
He was specific that while NextEra’s
goal is to hold Hawaiian Electric’s operating costs flat, the company is making no
promises to keep electric rates flat. Gleason
said the main goal is to reduce Hawaii’s dependence on oil, which accounts for about
50 percent of customers’ electric bills, and is
also a major factor in rate increases reflective of the cost of fuel.
“I can’t promise you your rates won’t
go up,” he said. “Because right now, if oil
prices go up, your rates will probably go
up.”
I Aloha Molokai member Larry Tool
urged the company to get specific.
“All I can see is, we’re giving up our
independence [to be under a large company]; what are we getting? It’s too early
to tell. And that doesn’t sound like a good
deal,” he said.
Questioning the Costs
Many attendees wondered why NextEra wanted to come to Hawaii.
“We’re a renewable energy company,”
said Gleason. “And we look at Hawaii as a
place that’s blessed with renewable energy
resources and paying the highest bills in the
country. There is an opportunity to replace
oil with renewable energy and save money.
So for a clean energy company’s that’s exciting…. We are big believers that renewable energy and cleaner energy can come
at a benefit to customers in terms of costs.”
Gleason said the company has nine
million customers in Florida, and residential ratepayers pay 9.7 cents per kilowatt
hour (kWh) of electricity – 25 cents below
the national average.
“I am not promising you the rates
in Molokai will go to 9.7 cents,” he said.
“What I am saying is we have a track record
of focusing on costs, driving costs down.”
But while Molokai has the second
highest electricity rate in the nation at 46
cents per kWh, residents made clear that
cost isn’t all that matters to them.
Many attendees shared their concerns
about LNG, a fuel they feel is neither renewable nor environmentally friendly.
“The cost of producing that liquid is
left on the local community that it’s being
taken from, with polluted water, air quality,
2
the works,” said one attendee. “To me it’s a
no-brainer on this island that that LNG is
not going to help us in the long run.”
Other residents echoed the concern
that even if the environmental consequences are not in their backyard, it’s still reason
to reconsider.
“In full disclosure, we are the largest
purchaser of natural gas in the utility industry in the United States,” said Gleason.
“Most of our customers… are more than
satisfied with the service they’re getting.
[But] in Florida, people aren’t as worried
about it. We get that the priorities here are
different, we get that there are concerns
about LNG.”
He stressed that the merger “is not
about LNG” and that Maui Electric’s plan
to reduce customers’ costs “not essential”
to include LNG.
“There’s so much consciousness about
doing the right thing… and challenging
us,” said Gleason. “I love that.”
Gleason also touched on Molokai’s
concern about an interisland, undersea
cable.
“We have never been part of any effort
to develop a Big Wind project or a cable to
Lanai or Molokai,” he said. “We don’t actually think that’s a good idea… because it’s
very clear that the community is not supportive.”
He said the company would therefore
not consider such a project for Molokai, but
that they are looking at the possibility of
a cable between Maui and Oahu, though
that would only move forward if the Public
Utilities Commission deemed it in the public interest.
Looking at Other Angles
Yamashita pointed out Florida’s low
rate of rooftop solar – a statistic that some
link to an apparent NextEra policy against
distributed photovoltaic.
However, Gleason said such a policy
doesn’t exist. Instead, because of Florida’s
low electric rates, there is no incentive for
customers to install rooftop solar.
“[As a customer], paying a lot of money for electricity is not a problem I have,” he
explained. “So from my perspective, rooftop solar industry is offering me a solution
to a problem I don’t have.”
Kanoho Helm, president of I Aloha
Molokai, offered strong support for those
employed locally by the solar industry.
“Whatever job they have left on this
island, we need to take care of those people,
because we don’t have many jobs left…
I’d like to express my support to them,” he
said.
Helm added that I Aloha Molokai supports the idea of an electric co-op formed
by resident shareholders for Molokai, a
proposal that was recently put forward by
Maui County Mayor Alan Arakawa, following in Kauai’s footsteps.
“It’s going to be a long and hard road
in the path moving forward to create a coop for this island, going to have to work together,” said Helm. “Go sign up to kokua,
because if we want energy independence,
we’re going to have to do it ourselves.”
Meanwhile, Ritte urged NextEra officials to educate themselves on Hawaii’s history and the legal ramifications of the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom, pointing
to the recent Department of the Interior
hearing held to discuss sovereignty.
“You should have your lawyer realize that because of the history and the place
you’re in, you need to understand what
[the situation is],” said Ritte. “What you
have is a very shaky situation… what are
the liabilities that you guys are going to be
carrying? … I’m going to be filing papers…
and trying to get your guys in court… because of all those liability issues.”
Moving forward, much of the timeline
is at the hands of the Public Utilities Commission, said Gould. With nearly 30 organizations and groups accepted by the PUC as
interveners to add input to the merger case,
as well as PUC public hearings that remain
to be scheduled, there’s a lot that’s still up
in the air.
“We’re hoping we can complete it
within a year of when we began the transaction, which was in December,” said
Gould. “The process… will be dictated by
the PUC and their schedule.”
In the meantime, residents can submit
their testimony to the PUC anytime or learn
more about the merger process by visiting
puc.hawaii.gov and searching docket number 2015-0022.
NextEra staff will continue a schedule
of open houses on all the islands. While
Molokai residents left the meeting with
questions still left to be answered, NextEra
officials felt it was a productive event.
“We walked away with a great appreciation for the issue of energy but more importantly for the entire island,” said Gould
afterwards, adding that he thought representatives got a strong sense of Molokai’s
priorities, values and concerns. “I also felt a
mutual respect for our efforts.”

A
s Child Abuse Prevention
Month began at the Molokai Public Library last week,
groups of kids wandered around the
lawn with shiny blue pinwheels, chatting and smiling with friends and family. For organizers of the event, it was
the kind of childhood they hoped to
promote for all island keiki.
About 50 community members
gathered at the library to plant pinwheels and flags to raise awareness
and promote prevention of child abuse
and neglect.
“It’s always fun to be a child,” said
Anella Saito-Takabayashi, who works
with Catholic Charities Hawaii and
the Ho`oikaika Partnership, a coalition
of 40 child abuse prevention agencies
in Maui County. “[The pinwheels] remind us of children, of fun, about what
their lives should be. They should be
allowed to be children without having
any violence in the home.”
This year marked the eighth
year of pinwheel planting in Hawaii,
though Saito said the tradition only
started in Maui County two years ago.
At the Capitol Building lawn on Oahu,
more than 5,000 pinwheels were planted this year.
At Molokai’s event, representatives from the police department came
to plant pinwheels and read the mayor’s proclamation designating April
as Child Abuse Prevention Month.
According to the proclamation, “once
every minute, a child somewhere in
America is abused physically, sexually
or emotionally.”
Andrea “Titi” Hernandez, office
manager for Child and Family Services, said that “the more people know,
the better [off] we are on the island.”
“Just by being educated, spreading the world about the effects of
it,” said Hernandez of ways people
can help prevent abuse and neglect.
“Just being maka`ala. Everybody
just gotta look out for each other,
and I think that’s how we’re gonna
help the situation.”
The event capped off with a free
family concert with Honolulu-based
children’s band Uncle Wayne and the
Howling Dog Band, who had kids
shouting along to lively tunes.
Saito-Takabayashi said that there
are five protective factors that can help
counter the risk of child abuse and neglect in communities: knowledge of
parenting and of child development,
parental resilience, social connections,
concrete supports for parents, and developing social and emotional competence in children. They all have to do
with educating parents and equipping
communities to support their keiki,
she explained.
“Maybe you see a parent who’s
having trouble at the grocery store,
offer assistance. Maybe you offer a
friend a little bit of time for child care
so they can get some errands done,”
said Saito-Takabayashi. “All of those
things help to build in solid foundations for parenting skills and for social
connections.”
Twelve-year-old Lehiwa Ritte encouraged kids experiencing violence
at home to not be afraid of turning to
adults for help.
“Kids think they might get hurt
more if they tell someone,” she said.
“They shouldn’t be scared. Just tell
someone.”
Her mom Mercy Ritte added that
it’s important for kids to form trusting relationships with their peers and
be on the lookout for anything “that’s
not pono” and know where to go. One
such place is the Consuelo Foundation,
which provides abuse prevention programs and support in Hawaii and the
Philippines, and Child and Family Services, which offers counseling, support
and parent education programs.
“It’s important to bring light to
this issue and support our children,”
she said. “… If we’re not speaking
out or telling someone our children
suffer.”

Councilmember Gladys Baisa said
she felt the council needed more information but also felt the issue was too

the circumstances, LCC feared a possible shutdown as early as June of this

“I know we all want information,
and I want it to,” Baisa said. “I want
to know, is this a one-time thing? Is
500,000 a good number? How is it gonna be used? … We all want to know all
these things, but … if we don’t get this
going, the house is burning down while
we’re thinking about it.”
Guzman also felt the resolution
limited the mayor’s options for financial aid, but Council Chair Mike White
reminded Guzman that the resolution
“doesn’t require the mayor to do any-
a lot of us,” said Domingo. “We love the
heart that he brings to practice, the heart
that he brings on the road. He has the
biggest heart and he plays hard all the
time.”
“Anyone would have loved to
have him play volleyball from his freshman year, but we have them this year
and we enjoy every single minute with
him,” Domingo added.
The boys will travel to Hana on
April 17 and 18, followed by a week
off before the 2015 Maui Interscholastic League Division-II Boys’ Volleyball
Tournament on Lanai starting April 30.
“We are headed to Hana and looking forward to the challenge. We can
see where we stand and then we will be
blessed with a beautiful week off so we
can get some hard work done, stay positive and get ready for the tournament,”
said Domingo.
thing.”
The resolution now moves to the
mayor. He can decide whether or not
to submit a bill to the council, which
would pass on the bill to a committee
for review.
Councilmember Don Couch said
they could also look to the Maui County Department of Transportation for
solutions.
“We subsidize our bus system,”
Couch pointed out. “We don’t subsidize
airlines or ferries but it is in with the
purview of the Department of Transportation of this county to consider
that. I’m not saying that we do it, just to
consider it.”
Crivello said that she’s spoken
with Department of Transportation officials and has found early support for
the ferry. She said she’s continuing to
consider all options, and the resolution
is the first step.
“I’m looking at all avenues, not
only depending on the county,” she said.
“Whatever may be available out there to
support this vital transportation.”

ARIES (March 21-April 19): The California Gold Rush hit
its peak between 1849 and 1855. Three hundred thousand
adventurers flocked to America's West Coast in search of gold.
In the early days, gold nuggets were lying around on the
ground in plain sight, or relatively easy to find in gravel beds
at the bottom of streams. But later prospectors had to work
harder, developing methods to extract the gold from rocks that
contained it. One way to detect the presence of the precious
metal was through the use of nitric acid, which corroded any
substance that wasn't gold. The term "acid test" refers to that
process. I bring this to your attention, Aries, because it's a good
time for you to use the metaphorical version of an acid test
as you ascertain whether what you have discovered is truly
golden.
a lot to ask, but right now there's no one more suited to the
tasks. Only you can manage the stern grace that will keep us
honest. Only you have the tough humility necessary to solve
the riddles that no one else can even make sense of.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): My message this week might be
controversial to the Buddhists among you. But I've got to report the cosmic trends as I see them, right? It's my sacred duty
not to censor or sanitize the raw data. So here's the truth as I
understand it: More desire is the answer to your pressing questions. Passionate intensity is the remedy for all wishy-washy
wishes and anesthetized emotions. The stronger your longing,
the smarter you'll be. So if your libido is not already surging
and throbbing under its own power, I suggest you get it teased
and tantalized until it does.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Karelu is a word from the Tulu
language that's spoken in South India. It refers to the marks
made on human skin by clothing that's too tight. As you
know, the effect is temporary. Once the close-fitting garment
is removed, the imprint will eventually disappear as the skin
restores its normal shape and texture. I see the coming days as
being a time when you will experience a metaphorical version
of karelu, Scorpio. You will shed some form of constriction, and
it may take a while for you to regain your full flexibility and
smoothness.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The time between now and
your birthday will provide you with excellent opportunities to
resolve lingering problems, bring drawn-out melodramas to a
conclusion, and clean up old messes -- even the supposedly
interesting ones. You want to know what else this upcoming
period will be good for? I'll tell you: 1. Surrendering controlfreak fantasies. 2. Relieving your backlog of tension. 3. Expelling delusional fears that you cling to out of habit. 4. Laughing

By Ayda Ersoy
Do you struggle
with your workout
plan? You don’t know
what you need to do, or
you just get bored of doing the same every day?
Do you need some inspiration?
Science shows that the best way to
get motivated is to work together in a
community. Let’s do workout together,
and support and push each other!
Doing exercise is not always just to
lose weight -- it’s for feeling healthy and
happy. Being healthy means that you’re
not carrying extra pounds on you, you
feel energized, you have no pain and you
don’t need to take prescription drugs.
Did you know that if you are happy
you can lose weight faster? Why ? Because when you have any type of stress
your body produces cortisol. When your
cortisol levels are high your body stops
repairing most cells. Most likely you’ll
be craving sugary foods, you’ll feel more
tired and your mind will become less
clear.
Physical activity stimulates so
many brain chemicals, that it will make
you feel happier and more relaxed. You
may also feel better about yourself, you’ll
boost your confidence and improve your
self-esteem.
Exercise -- especially if you are doing it with friends -- can reduce your
stress level and increase endorphins
(your natural pain and stress fighter hormones). Some of the benefits of group
exercise are consistent schedule, and a
social and fun environment.
Also psychologists talk about something called “mirror neurons.” These are
a type of brain cell that fire when you
do an action, and also when you simply
watch someone else doing the same action. If you have positive friends, you
will get an effect from their positive energy too. But also if you are surrounded
by negative people your brain cells will
pick this up too.
Help and support each other for
our Molokai community together, with
unique classes that are easy and fun!
Mobility and abs classes are held on
Mondays at 5 p.m. at One Ali`i Park for
the next four weeks. Mobility means the
ability to move or be moved freely and
easily. Join us at One Ali`i Park and you
will reduce your back pain, relax your
muscles, improve your mental focus,
release tension in your neck, shoulders,
hips or knees, improve core strength and
open your joints.
Yogalates class on Wednesdays at 5
p.m. at One Ali`i Park for the next four
weeks. Yogalates combines yoga and
Pilates -- yoga is a physical, mental and
spiritual practice and Pilates is the art
of controlled movements. You will release stress, improve flexibility, support
your diet, increase your energy, reduce
your back pain and improve your core
strength.
The classes will each takes 45 minutes, after that we can talk and you can
ask any questions.
Just bring your mat or towel and
water with you! And don’t forget to
bring your friends too.
