DUSTIN BARCA RUN FOR MAYOR TOUR,JOAN CONROW PICKS ON A PRETTIER YOUNGER WOMAN, CLAYTON KUBO IS A HERO,KALAHEO WATER WOES,HAWAII FARMERS DAUGHTER TELL US THE GMO GAMEPLAN






This is the whole video produced for his run around the island. You can see most of the launching ceremony. People are staying to the left of the monk seal sign. You can see that the seal is not being run over by the canoe, as the entire launching going into the water is shown. You can also see that there are at least a hundred people there, not only Dustin Barca supporters, but at least several dozen visitors that had no idea what was going on. As you can see, this was locals, local people hand Hawaiians. All who have the utmost respect for Monk seals, including Barca himself.  TO try and put up a 60op second video clip, and say that Barca was "Harassing" a seal, with so many people there as witnesses is sheer stupidity.






Dustin Barca's Run for Mayor THIS WEEKEND!

Katie Horgan Joan Conrows latest "I'll Get You Yet, My Pretty!", victim
Joan Conrow Empress Of Snark "I'll get you yet, my pretty!"


Joni "Tokyo Rose" Gives us the low down on the real plans. Mysterious plant diseases are now infesting all worldwide crops. They certainly aren't being introduced into the environment by the companies! Why, of course not, they are just going to make everything all right by curing them all! They will save the planet yet!


We were wading through the virus, hormone infested, fungus laden plants in our backyard yesterday, and musing just why there weren't more chemicals to kill them off bettor. I mean, come on, there is a spot on that one, a blemish on that one. AS we mused dejectedly, the bright beautiful glorious day began to cloud over in our minds, as we collectively became gloomy, glum sadsacks, schlepping around and trying to figure out what to do with ourselves. Then the light went off almost spontaneously! Well, it was just a bulb that popped in the kitchen, but still.


So, our staff rallies at the statue of Joan. *see previous post*, and we began to pray. We raided the fridge and the garden. We looked for ring spot viruses and banana viruses and cassava viruses. You know, the foods that aren't GMO yet. I mean come on seriously we need to feed the WORLD, right? Even though half of the world *or more* has banned GMOs in some way or completely. We just KNOW we can save lives!.

Suddenly, from a misty corner, came Joni Kimayo! Or some version of that, we don't feel like factchecking today, that is Joans job. In fact, we noticed that Joan was feeling kinda lazy herself on her last blogpost, merely perusing the Garden Island Newspapers online site, and commenting on each headline. We LOVE her creativity and ingenuity! Such writing skills and original thought processes!


It's like going through someones garbage when they have already thrown it out, and digging right to the bottom for the really good stuff, yanno the icky rancid rotten stuff. EYah! That's awesome!


And then...commenting about it on a blog! That is "investigative" reporting right? Well, its reporting, right? Well, its a report right? Well its writing, write? Er, nevermind.

But first lets to get to the latest WAHINE IN PERIL, as Joan Conrow ties yet another unsuspecting, poor young, brilliant girl with an advanced degree to the Kilohana train tracks, and starts the engines to run her ass over!.

Here is Joans latest post, more then likely written from some safe bunkered haven somewhere where there are no environmental nutcases. You know, like Joan, who wante4d all of the football games stopped for the shearwaters, and we believe brought some sort of a suit against someone, and got the EPA all involved n stuff...yeah. THAT Joan Conrow. The same one that just LOVES LOCALS, and wrote a book about TOURING KAUAI FOR FAMILIES. Like she has a passle of kids and knows all about it. Guess she doesn't like football games. Right Joan? Right? But she hates the military. Oh DOES she? Does she REALLY? But, but, Joan, aren't you all for the biggest employers of the We3stside? So, don't you Love the military? I mena they employ people, Joan. Aren't you for the employers? Wait, does the military not like GMO's? Could this be true?


Oh wait, no, just one little female employee, young, and engineer with advanced degrees, cute, pretty, sweet, and young. Just the type of delectable little morsels that Joan Loves to chew up and spit out for a light snack, If we didn't know any better we would say something else was going on, but nah. We are pretty sure that Joan is as celibate as a nun. Neither side would want that. But maybe it is the frustrated poledancer in Joan? Does she really YEAH to spin on the tin? WHO knows. After all, that is jsut baseless speculation. Jut like most of Joans so called "writing", the icing on the cake to her pure snarkiness.

So, who is this delicate little flower that Joan wants to pluck from the ethers and drag stomping below her black topped hiking boots?

Well, the poor evil creature designed the KCC Bookstore building. Yap. Evil, evil evil. She works for some contracting company u8nder a military contract. But she is a red shirt! AN evil, globulating redshirt minion, that needs to be stopped at all costs? Know Why? Cruz she picked on poor widdle Joany Pornsey. That's right, folks. She told Joan if she didn't let her post on her blog, she would write an editorial to the newspaper about her. Aw. POOR JOAN! She got all butthurt over it. But wait, don't let US tell you, here is the post.

But before we show it to you, we want to show you the kind of wicked, evil cruel things this wanton woman of 2491 poledancing dilettante has been posting all over the Internet, and we also want to state, that these posts were mostly coming from a surfing blog. Something Joan is certainly not intimately familiar with, but since Dustin  Barca started running for mayor, GMO companies are now trying to figure out how to make GMO surf. Well, they already have, they just won't admit it. Next is GMO air...oh wait...done that already......Moving along....

Here are some flaming horrific posts we found! They were so G rated, we got a cavity! Seriously, Joan can't take it, even at its most MILD form. In fact, where does she mention Joan? Where are these so called threats? Where are the posts? Joan? Joan? Actually we are kinda pissed that she went for Kate. We wanted her to take a go at us. But we figure, nah. She knows we would go for it. Too hard for Joan. The poor girl probably doesn't even know Joan wrote about her. She will now. Thanks to US.

Musings: Gone Crazy

As someone noted in comments yesterday: The entire [Kauai county] council seems to have gone crazy.


To which I might add, it's not just the Council. Got lots of unelected nuts out there, too.


Like Lepeuli Beach regular Richard Spacer, who has asked the state Attorney General to launch a criminal investigation into former Planning Commissioner Caven Raco. Seems Richard, who is displeased with the Waipake Beach access planned through the Kahu Aina Plantation project, takes issue with Caven's testimony to the County Council last October supporting the access:


I would like all the council members to be made aware that I was a voting committee member on the Subdivision committee during the public testimony stages of this particular applicant when the original path was decided. During public testimony and deliberation it was the community that showed interest in having a foot path and not the planning dept. It is my recollection that over 100 signatures and testimonies were provided for the path. I hope that this may help clarify any confusion.


But because the planning department was unable to provide Richard with the signatures, which apparently were provided to Caven outside of a meeting, and thus not part of the department's records, Richard is convinced Caven has engaged in “public fraud.” In his letter to the AG he writes:


I would like your office to investigate what motivated Mr. Raco to make that testimony when Mr. [Dale] Cua says no such documents exist. Is there a past, present, or future benefit to Mr. Raco for making that apparently fraudulent testimony? Did the owner of the Kahu Aina subdivision Falko Partners, a company owned by Mr. Larry Bowman, or the property manager Mr. Shawn Smith offer inducements to Mr. Raco for favorable testimony?


I will also be asking the FBI Public Fraud Unit to investigate.


Oh, and I'm sure they'll get right on it. I wonder why Richard, who has told some whoppers,really Joan? ANd what lies did he tell? Evidence, girl, learn basic Journalism! doesn't believe he also should be held to truthfulness. Should we ask the FBI and AG to investigate?


And then there's rabid “redshirt” Katie Horgan, who threatened to write a letter to the editor if I didn't let her comment on my blog. Truly. I'd never even heard of the wahine until she started attacking me in cyberspace, as the reds are wont to do, because I dared to question them, their “facts” and their despicable tactics.As usual, Joan CANNOT take the heat when it is directed at her, and whines like a little baby. But still, she gave no EVIDENCE to support that post. Where is the correspondance of that? Come on, Joan. Grow up.

So I checked her out. so is this like I "stalked her", check her out, or I "cyberbullied" her checked her out, or i did a "google search" checked her out, or I followed her one day, and found out where she worked" checked her out, or I did a background check on her" checked her out, or I got her IP adress, and checked her out, or all of the above?Turns out she's another one of those "redshirts" with ties to the construction industry, her "ties to the construction industry", is that the girl is an engineer with advanced degrees, who designed, for one thing, the new bookstore and OCET building at Kauai Community College a few years ago. Yeah, that EVIL industry. Yanno someone musta stiffed Joan on some petty finishwork, or roofwork at some time in her life. She sure does hate people who wield hammer and nails for a living. Or design housing. Even if its good housing. You know, like buildings for a Community College campus. Oh wait, Joan went to school on the mainland, that's right. How do we know? We "checked her out. We learn from the Master well, don't we St. Joan of yoda?though she is now working for Manu Kai, a private defense contractor that helps PMRF with its electronic warfare systems. She's so freaked out by the seed companies that she drives from Kapahi to Mana every day — what do you suppose the carbon footprint of that is? — rather than live near her job. But she's apparently untroubled by the environmental damage or human health problems caused by war, so long as she's getting a paycheck. Yet she's one of those who has accused me of being a sell out because I  refused to slurp the 2491 Kool-Aid.We disagree. JOAN CONROW IS NOT A SELL OUT. Nope. You have to have something to sell to be a sell out. Joan has nothing. So, therefore, nothing to sell out. Soulless, empty shell of a human water bag. That's about it. SO, on this, we gotta say, that Joan Conrow is completely innocent of being a sell out on anything. Who would buy so much of her chocolaty goodness that she could EVER sell out of it? It just keeps coming, in huge ginormous oceans. Nope. Joan Cornrow. Not  a sell out.


Then there's Kauai Rising, which doesn't know whether it has a charter amendment or an ordinance, but it wants the County Clerk to start counting the signatures anyway. Actually, they do know it's an initiative, but they're trying to pass it off as a charter amendment because fewer signatures are required to get an amendment on the ballot.


In a guest commentary today, Allan Parachini does an excellent job of outlining the insanity of this amendment, as well as the deceptive process used to collect signatures. As Allan notes:


This initiative is one of the most dangerous manifestations of the drive by the extreme political right and left to usurp the right to decisions over our basic nutrition that are really the province of individuals and families. The County Council has the authority to hold this process up until a thorough review of what the initiative actually says and means and who and what are really behind it. It must do so.This is RICH! SO, Joan COnrow BASHES poeple who have conspiracy theories, yet here comes this looney tunes, and he says there is a conspiracy and joan is all over this one! ANd even MEl Rapozo is getting on some of these trains. Poor Joan. Her support base is shrinking smaller and smaller. Untill all of the poeple that think Joan has anything of sense to say will be fitting on the head of a pin. With room to spare. Seriously. Hypocrite? Kettle meet Pot?

Yet even though the Council, as Chair Jay Furfaro astutely observed, isn't sure whether they've got a cat or a dog — it's a dog, Jay, take my word for it arguably sop is Joan, but we will leave that sleep and lie. because there is just no point in going there. its pretty obvious— he and all his colleagues, except for Ross Kagawa wonder if Ross knows ha that he is Joans special angel on the council? I wonder how he feels about having an older, white woman from the mainland admire him so much? Does Ross know how much Joan posts about him, and praises him? DO you think this would disturb Ross, to know of Joans obsession for him? Hmm. Perhaps someone should tell him. Oh wait, we just did. Does Anyone see a pattern yet, here kids? I mean seriously the unbalance, and hinginess of this is starting to get a bit on the creepy side.voted to move this legal loser along. They couldn't even wait a week for a legal opinion. Cause ya know, the county clerk got nothing better to do — except repeatedly advise Kauai Rising they really should consult with an attorney to sort this shit We just love when a woman who calls babes against biotech poledancers uses words like shit. It just makes her sound so cool and hip. And really down in there with the real people.We can imagine Joan,out there in some dark, smokey room, in some back alley some where saying "Shits gonna go down boys", with a ciggy dangling out of her mouth, and one strap flopped down over her arm, and her knobby knees crossed, while her eyes scan the room for victims...then...in walks...a RED SHIRT! Lolz. Yeah. Or shes like a dead head groupie that got rejected. but remebers to say shit every once In a while just to remind us that she is one badd ass motha..

Problem is, the Kauai Rising folks don't want to pay. Instead, they're looking for freebie legal services — gee, where's Teri Tico. Earthjustice and Center for Food Safety now? You'd think Joan Porter, whose husband, Bill, has like a gazillion bucks, could kick down some kala for a legal review. If she wants this thing, why doesn't she put her money where her mouth is and hire an attorney to make it legit, instead of casting the burden on Kauai taxpayers?Jopans green eyes monster of jealousy rises to the surface, as the snark pours forth like a river from her fingertips, releasing juicy little tidbits about peoples lives and how much money they have. yet Joan herself refuses to release who her donars are on her donation blog with no NON PROFIT LISTED, nor any information whatsoever about HER financial resources. Gee, Joan, we love how you stalk er we mean "fact check" your chosen select victims. er we mean, people that you "write" about."

Councilwoman JoAnn Yukimura, meanwhile, joined a majority in properly slapping down the no-confidence resolution for County Attorney Al Castillo while uttering this gem:


I’m hoping this experience, as uncomfortable and awkward as it has been, has maybe been helpful to all of us to think about leadership and how each of us exercises it in the public trust.this little "gem" was written about by a REAL reporter, from the garden island newspaper who was more then likely actually in the room, and reporting on the event as his job. Joan, just read it off the Internet. With no cred to the reporters who actually report the stories. that's cuz joan cant find anyone to pay her fo0r reporting. She was booted from the star bulletin for reaming the boss publicly in an article. Joan always bites hands. People keep feeding her though. But she doesn't seem to pack on the pounds much. too mean and scrappy for that! It takes love to pack on the pounds.

Gee, wouldn't that be a switch.



And finally, the The Garden Island's comment section lit up on the story about the Kilauea man who got probation, a fine and an order to attend parenting classes for making his son walk a mile as "old school" discipline. Oh, the outcry against Judge Kathleen Watanabe, the Office of Prosecuting Attorney and the nanny state.


Too bad the reporter didn't provide the full story: A lady found the 8-year-old boy screaming and hysterical in the bushes, with no idea where he was or how to get home, so she called police.


Discipline is fine. Seriously traumatizing your kid is, fortunately, against the law.
SO HERE< WE WILL GIVE YOU A LING TO THE GI, where you can read the days online Internet choices for headlines. http://thegardenisland.com/news/local/THis is what Joan does. Just peruses others writings and comments on it. That doesn't make you an "Investigative reporter". It makes you an Internet troll, and a critic. Far cry from great Journalist. In fact, not even on the same planet. So, where is the credibility of Joan, who continues to solicit funds for her blog, although now she quit gloating about it, and no longer thanks her blog supporters. It s going to be funny watching her get a donation from everyone and see whom she panders too. She can't win the donation game. Know why? Because she keeps whining about everyone ELSE begging for donations. Lol, so hey, Girlfriend, wake up and smell the Cali, baby! Your donations are going to dry up like Kalaheos water supply! Which Joan mysteriously chose not to comment on. Guess that wasn't Important enough for HER. You know, people without water. Nah. A young girl speaking her mind? OH HELL YEAH< ITS A GO BABY!


The one story Joan DIDN'T Comment on? Why the one she should have cared about. But she doesn't because the REAL suffering of humanity Joan could not care less about, and that is this story, about the water going to be about 6 weeks to get fixed in kalaheo. Now,k in the hottest part of the summer, with all kinds of stuff going on, huymidity ext, and elderly and kupuna living right there, and small kids, they have water buffaloes, and if you really wanna you can take a shower all the way in lihue, or hanamaulu. Of course you will need another shower right after traveling almost 40 miles to get one, plus wasting gas, or taking a two to four hour busride to get there, but hey who cares right? We think Joan should be on it. Oh, eff Joan we got your back, kalaheo! 

 WARNING THE FOLLOWING IS A SPONTANEOUS RANT

Best SNARK OF THIS, IS THAT THEY ARE ASKING THE GREEDY FUCKS WHO HAVE ENOUGH WATER TO CONSERVE THE DAMNED EFFING WATER! WHO DOES THAT? WHO SITES THERE IN THEIR NICE MANSION, AND SOMEHOW THEIR WATER ISN'T BEING IMPACTED ENOUGH, WHILE THE PEOPLE DOWN THE LINE AT THE BOTTOM, YOU KNOW THOSE BOTTOM FEEDER LOCALS, AND OTHER RIFF RAFF WHO CANT ELECT PEOPLE GOOD ENOUGH TO GIVE THEM DECENT WATER LINES SO THEY A RE GETTING WHAT THEY DESERVE BUNCH, ARE WHINING ABOUT NOT HAVING WAT3ER! NOT US! SEEUS WATER OUR LAWNS! lOOKY AT US, WE CAN BATHE!...nyah nyah. you PEONS GO GO AND BATHE IN LIHUE OR HANAMAULU YEAH THAT'S RIGHT SUCKS WE GOT OURS! hahahahaha.

Big Picture Thinkers Have the Smallest Minds

There are certain buzzwords and catch phrases of our time that bug the hell out of me.  The word “sustainability” is one and the catch phrase “big picture” is yet another.  Why do I dislike of the overuse of these words?  Too many people say it and don’t even know what it really means.  From the politicians to community leaders, they brag about being able to see the “big picture” for making Hawaii and the world a better place, but then take actions that show otherwise.
If someone truly saw this beautiful “big picture,” it would mean that they could see how everything is interdependent upon each other and all affects it.  They would be able to pick apart all the different entities that would be affected by a single decision. They would know such a decision has many impacts far beyond the obvious and will trickle down into other areas. What seemed like an “easy fix” tends to cause other consequences in others aspects that maybe unforeseen.  It is pretty hard and complex to think like this and makes you really see how BIG the picture really is.
For the anti-GMO activists around the world, they think that they are doing their part to save the world of this perceived evil.  Whether it be stopping Monsanto, or some other evil agrochemical corporation, they are doing us a favor by taking such action.  Whether it be a ban of growing GMOs on the Big Island or petitioning for a moratorium of crops on Maui, all they can see is that this evil must be stopped.  There’s rich people paying money to influence this yet there is not a shred of credible evidence to back up the rationale for such legislation.  They also use powerful motivators with fear and misinformation from Don Huber’s unidentified organism, to Tyrone Hayes Atrazine and mysterious frogs, and now Jeffrey Smith’s legit sounding Institute for Responsible Technology.  They see their big picture as ridding the world of GMO and pesticides to make it a better place and don’t even realize the full implications of such actions.
What these people don’t see is what else they are contributing to when they protest and hold concerts together.  They don’t see the things happening beyond our own world that their actions have a significant impact upon.  The big picture goes way beyond our islands and around the world.  We have no worries about where our food is coming from and whether or not we will have another meal.  Food is not an issue for most of us.  As a result, we are free to pursue other aspects in our lives with work and leisure and activities.  What about the rest of the world who does not have such luxuries of us?  Shouldn’t we as a nation of wealthy, well fed individuals consider how we can help our fellow human that doesn’t have such opportunities?
When one says that all GMO needs to be banned, consider what is happening around the world…
  • A bananapocolypse? Banana crops around the world is in danger of decimation due to a fungal infection.  In some parts of the world, people consume up to 500 lbs of this crop as it is a staple.  Research is being focused on the genetics of this fungus to determine what the source is and how they will solve this problem.

  • A deadly staple with a touch of arsenide.  Cassava is the “ultimate food security crop in Africa” and it is under attack by the Cassava Brown Streak disease that renders it toxic and inedible.  Scientists are working on a transgenic crop to help protect it from this disease so that crops are protected.

  • California is experiencing the very severe drought and is one of the main regions where most of our food comes from.  It is positioned as the “agricultural powerhouse of the United State” when it comes to food production.  When things are this dry, nothing will grow and how will our current crops stand up against climate change?  Neither organic or conventional crops may be able to tolerate those kinds of conditions if it persists.

  • Bt Brinjal can help decrease developing world farmers against old world pesticides.  A public sector developed this crop to help save farmers the need for the conventional methods to grow this essential crop in Asia.  It also protects the children of farmers from having to handle such pesticides.  Without the treatment of pesticides, these people can lose up to 30% of their crops leaving significantly less income and food for their families.

  • An estimated 250 million preschool children around the world become vitamin A deficient by the WHO estimations.  About 250,000 to 500,000 become blind every year with half dying within 12 months of losing their sight.  Consider this perspective, that there is estimated to be 1.392 million people in Hawaii.  If we let 500,000 or 35.6% of our residents succumb to this preventable illness, what would that burden be upon us as a state?  Consider that Honolulu has 973K people and to let 500K die or become disabled, where would that leave us?

While we in the US and other western countries are busy fighting about banning and labeling GMOs, what message does that send the world who live far away from the conditions that we experience?  We have clean water, lots to eat, access to education and technology and a hell of a lot of energy to complain about our food.  Some people have a lot of energy to get together to organize marches against some evil corporation or exchange seeds in hopes of a revolution against a corporation.  What good is that kind of action and message send the world about us as individuals?  It tells the world that we don’t care about what happens in their neck of the woods and what happens to them because we never have to worry about these issues at all. What kind of human have we become when we don’t think about our fellow human being?
I really admire how the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation have really learned about the plight of people around the world and figure out ways to help them.  If we help others, our goal for a better world can truly be fulfilled.  Several key issues that they work on include education of women, access to technology and energy, and food for all.  These are all basics that we are so fortunate to have access to that we take for granted.

WE DIDNT INCLUDE THE VIDEO, BUT WE WILL UPLOAD IT A LITTLE ALTER> STAY TUNED>
If you watch the video posted above, you can learn about the naiveté of Bill and Melinda Gates had about the problems of the world.  They sought the consultations of scientists to help study the problems and how they could best help the issues that we don’t even think twice about.  Multiple issues from birth control, vaccinations, education, and food impact the quality of life of others across the world from us.  Much of why these people don’t have access to some of these tools, are political, which is what Melinda saw as a crime.  They both decided to do something about it.
It is sad to think that we have the power to share the right information for others if we’d take more time to research exactly what we are supporting.  GMOs are not about agro-chemical companies poisoning the world or evil corporations owning the food supply.  If people keep protesting it, it will only force this technology into the hands of companies with the financial backing to bring it to fruition.  It’s about a powerful tool that if given a chance, could do so much to help others that I will never meet, but ultimately have a positive impact upon because I chose to speak up for what it can do for others.
Instead of just wanting that sustainable and compassionate Hawaii, how about thinking beyond that?  If you’re going to do something, why not think about that bigger picture?!

Now, to Dustin  Barca, we kept the best for last

http://www.barca4mayor.com/ 

http://www.barca4mayor.com/calendar/ 

go to the calender section to check his scedual for this weekend don't miss this kids! He will be coming to each aha mokuj of kauai, with either a swim, walk or run. To meet up with him, the whole thing is posted, so pack something to eat, plenty of water, some comfortable clothing, and come and join him!

This isa guy thatr walks his walk. But poeple like joan jsut want him to shut up and sit down. Joan extremely dislikes Barca. GO figure. hes hawaiian, hes handsome, he has a young family, hes a good athlete, and he can rally the people and enact real change. Apperently anyone who represents this diserves Joans scorn. ANd in return, we will happily hand it right back to her and all others like her, in spades. Eat crow much Joan? well, get used to it.

WE PULEU JOAN CONROW ON A STICK RACIST RANTINGS THE ONE TRUE ANTI PRAYER TO JOAN GMO SCIENTIST GIVES IT UP TO GROW ORGANIC COTTON DISSING THE ROCKERFELLERS A REAL HAWAIIAN SAGA FUNDED BY EVIL PHILANTHROPIC MONEY






This is the whole video produced for his run around the island. You can see most of the launching ceremony. People are staying to the left of the monk seal sign. You can see that the seal is not being run over by the canoe, as the entire launching going into the water is shown. You can also see that there are at least a hundred people there, not only Dustin Barca supporters, but at least several dozen visitors that had no idea what was going on. As you can see, this was locals, local people hand Hawaiians. All who have the utmost respect for Monk seals, including Barca himself.  TO try and put up a 60op second video clip, and say that Barca was "Harassing" a seal, with so many people there as witnesses is sheer stupidity.

How to Worship Joan First, get a garden Gnome We recommend this one
Cut out Joans face, and color it any color you like. Green, Red, Polka Dotted Then follow the directions below.



Here is a recent pic to get you started on the right path to Joan Worship

Joan's nastiness to anons that aren't HER BELOVED FOLLOWERS is seriously Epic Read far down, for the RACIST COMMENT REVEAL LALAPALOOZA.

Yeap. It finally happened. Our entire staff's heads exploded simultaneously. Boy, was the clean up crew pissed!
Now, YOU TOO can pray to Joan! Simply get one of those garden gnomes, download a pic of Joan, found right here, print it out, paste it to the face of the gnome statue, and place the statue on a flat surface. Cover with a GMO COtton Cloth, and bring it food and drink each day. And always remember some chocolate pudding in a koa wood bowl, because you cannot do homage to Joan without a bowl of chocolaty goodness!
After bringing the statue of the gnome the GMO food, BE VERY CAUTIOUS TO NEVER EVER GIVE THE STATUE ORGANIC FOOD EVER! The statue will begin to weep mysterious tears. and bad luck will follow!
Reciting this prayer three times, while looking in a mirror carefully places behind the ass of the gnome statue, so that you can see it from the front, then kissing its little ceramic boots, *use caution they might begin to animate and kick you in the face, much like how Joan kicks Hawaiians in the face on her blog every time she allows people to make racist remarks against Hawaiians on it*
Please speak reverently and in a high shrill voice, or a low, menacing one, or even a hissing voice, or a midwestern drawl, as a homage to Joans bread basket roots, or just growl throughout.  NEVER SMILE when you pray to Joan, and make sure that you have an appropriate sour puss look on your face, or a lopsided smirk would be much better. Because of course SMIRKS begat SNARKS and SNARKS begat Joan.

Hail Joan Conrow, the mother of all Hypoctites, pray for us in our hour of snark
Hail Joan Conrow Mother of all Anti's, pray for us in our hour of PRO.
Hail Joan COnrow Mother of  All Transplants pray for us in our hour of non local-ness
Hail Joan COnrow, Mother of All Crocodile Tears pray for us in our hour of fake empathy
Hail Joan COnrow Mother of All Jealousy, pray for us in our hour of green envy
Hair Joan COnrow Mother of All Snark, pray for us in our hour of snark that we can exceed your snarkiness one day

We pray to you, oh Joan, that we may be as snarkiliscious as you
And that you might bless us for many years
With your sacred blogs and writings
So that we may post as viciously as you do.
Pray for us that we may also learn to be as
racist, ignorant, and conservatively insane
As your most sacred apostles and loyal blogposters
We pray also, for the sacred apostle, Chuck Lasker, The Protector of all GMO Science, and for the Sacred One, Joni "Tokyo Rose", may these two forever bask, and be protected
by your sacred glory.
May we, one day, aspire to the kind of idiocy that these
Your most sacred acolytes and apostles
have risen to.
Dearest Mother Joan, we beseech you, praise you and honor you
With these hunmble GMO BHT offerings, and
Honor you, by reading
Your sacred writings hourly
Sending them deeply into our brains
And living for the time, when we too can be
reunited with you in
that sacred nirvana known as
Snark Heaven.
We know it is a fiery hot place, and we hope to be able
To bask in your heat, power and might,
As we are simply Newells Shearwaters, drawn to your Bright white hot flame.
For this we pray.
ALL HAIL!

Musings: Stops and Starts

The day started with stars, Venus, two adorable piglets running across our path as the dogs and I walked in first light, and a thought that's been recurring in this long spate of muggy weather: Did I somehow get transported to Guam?


I learned something rather disturbing yesterday. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission issued its findings of retaliatory behavior against Police Chief Darryl Perry without ever questioning him, or taking his statement. Nor was he ever given a copy of the EEOC's report. How is that a person can be accused and found guilty while never being allowed to speak in their own defense, or see the findings against them?


Glancing at Civil Beat, I notice it has a new look. I also noticed a commentary by Ashley Lukens, director of the Center for Food Safety, demanding more transparency from the seed/chem companies. Awesome. And while you are it, could you please tell us more about the Rockefeller sisters who are the primary benefactors of your work, and what their agenda is in Hawaii?


Ashley's not the only talking out of both sides of her mouth. There's uber hypocrite Councilman Tim Bynum trying to take away ag tax rates from the seed companies because they aren't growing something that goes right into the mouth of the consumer. But he had no problem falsely signing a document that claimed his own house — with rental — was a farm dwelling and his land agricultural, though he produced absolutely nothing at all.


Speaking of hypocrites, I found it so fascinating that Surfrider wants to hold the seed companies to the highest possible standards, as in not even the faintest trace of pesticides leaving their land. Which is fine, the very best management practices should be required. But when I asked Dr. Carl Berg if they also intended to hold the state and taro farmers to the same standards, regarding their use of glyphosate (Roundup), which was also detected in waterways, I got this:


RUP [restricted use pesticides] and experimental pesticides are more dangerous than general use pesticides. Why not target those that use the most and the most toxic pesticides? While not ignoring everyone else?


Except, as I pointed out, they are ignoring everyone else, including the termite treatment companies, which actually use more RUPs than the seed companies, with no buffers, no disclosure, no nothing. What do they think happens to the poison gas when the tent is removed?


And when I asked why they weren't saying anything about the RUPs leaching off the golf courses — an issue that used to be an environmental concern, before Surfrider allied itself with the pro-tourism contingent — I got no response at all.


A friend who attended the recent state Democratic Convention was bummed that “the progressives still get suppressed.” Which, sadly, is exactly what I predicted would be the effect of allowing regressives like the “lil fisties” — and what woman so aptly termed “the pole dancers” — to dominate the supposedly progressive political arena, setting it back decades.


But do they learn? No, they run doomed-to-lose candidates like Dylan Hooser, Felicia Cowden and Dustin Barca. I loved Felicia's comment in The Garden Island about how KKCR listeners encouraged her to run. And soon she will discover just how small and empty the KKCR echo chamber really is.


Finally, the county has again posted the list of approved transient vacation rentals on its website. But the TVRs are listed by tax map key, rather than their advertised property name. So it is still virtually impossible for consumers to determine whether they are renting a legal or illegal property, or for neighbors to participate in the county's policy of enforcement by complaint. What's up with that, guys?

And the resource we should most covet is the ability to choose how we govern ourselves. We do not have to covet that in other countries.

Learn your fucking history...Kanaka Maoli did fight to return they're Kingdom but were outmatched in fire power and the revolutionaries were thrown in jail by the Provisional Government...my g-g-grandfather being one of them along with Jonah Kuhio Kalanianaole. Lili'uokalani "fought" in a non-violent manner, going to Washington D.C. to meet with Cleveland and others to plead her case. Lastly, the Ku'e Petitions gathered nearly 40,000 (almost the entire native population at that time) signatures in opposition to annexation and took that to Congress where annexation failed. It was the war mongers in Washington who had their imperialistic sights on the Pacific, who coveted "the pear ripe for picking" called Hawaii. The Spanish-American War sealed Hawaii's fate and a domestic law called a resolution, having no jurisdiction over the sovereign Kingdom of Hawaii, was passed by Congress. The falsehood that Hawaii was annexed in 1898 has been perpetuated ever since.

PMRF sits on Crown Lands belonging to the Hawaiian Kingdom. Haole, do you really believe that you can continue to pull the wool over educated Kanaka who know their history? Get lost.

I love how selective Hawaiian activists can be. They chose a time in history that suits them for land rights. How about going back to the chiefdoms where only the ali'i clas had land rights, and where all others were serfs working for their chief.

5:05 - So you consider a revolution of natives with guns as NOT fighting for their nation? I guess America doesn't recognize non-violence as a form of resistance...they just assassinate those who advocate for it.

As in other cultures throughout the Pacific, ownership of land did not exist. Chiefs ruled the people of the ahupua'a but never owned them like serfs. And if alii weren't pono to the people, they were removed. Maka'ainana (commoners) had access to all the resources of the ahupua'a, mauka to makai in order to meet all their needs. Today, most of us are denied access mauka to makai by large landowners. It wasn't until foreigners came and demanded to own property, did land tenure in Hawaii change. We all know the story of the Mahele and the Kuleana Act. Our alii tried to make sure the maka'ainana got their share.

I love how American patriots think the history of a place starts and ends with them and all else before them doesn't count.

Kanaka Maoli are not the racist ones here, we are the oppressed. It was racist foreigners who came here, stole our lands, overthrew our government, banned our culture and to top it off, expect us to be grateful.

Kanaka Maoli are continuing the fight in the international arena because America will never willingly return what was stolen. Get it right, we never "lost" our nation...it was stolen and it remains occupied. Huge difference.

Yhea well your USA nuclear bombed the Pacific and made totally inhabitable any life on Bikini Atoll and surrounding islands. Why because people of color are dispensable. Then they turned around and literally slaughtered hundreds of thousands of innocent Japanese civilians in Hiroshima and Nagasaki by dropping the A-Bomb, already knowing that the Japanese military was preparing to surrender. Oh and lets not forget the racist stain of slavery and the fact that bigotry against minorities is still very real today in the ghettos and slums of every major inner city. Nor can we forget the genocide against North America's native people, the outright extermination and relegation to reservations of a once proud people where poverty, drugs and alcohol prevail. What happened to Kanaka Maoli is consistent with the real history of America. Not some romanticized version of it.

I hadn't pegged you as anti-military, Joan. I can't imagine you would be able to say what you do without the military defending you against forces that would love to remove that right from you.

The "destroying" you talk about that PMRF is about is destroying missiles sent towards your home. Do you believe if we eliminated the military other countries would be sweet and leave us alone?

Your belief that the Navy doesn't care about marine life is incorrect. Their entire "world" is the ocean - they care for it like parents. They are the ocean's police, too, enforcing international maritime environmental laws. Imagine what the status of whales would be without the U.S. Navy.

Regardless if you think I'm wrong about Japan surrendering...the bottom line is that the USA literally annihilated hundreds of thousands of Japanese citizens - not military targets. Not unlike the legacy of Agent Orange in Vietnam which the people are still suffering today - woman giving birth to extremely deformed babies, direct result of Monsanto's Agent Orange used to defoliate the land and ruin the ability for the enemy to hide or for the people to feed themselves.

So as the military "fights for your freedom" Americans' civil rights are violated by NSA spying on all our private communications - emails, phone conversations, internet activity whether you're a terrorist or not. Whistle blowers are prosecuted and thrown in jail. Freedom of the press jeopardized by being targeted as accomplices to whistle blowers. How's that freedom working for you?

Kauai can get back to basics.
How does an island that totally relies on Tourism keep a little bit of the old ways? Everyday about 1/3 of the island's people are visitors....we need the money and this tourist money is clean.
The idears about MarryWanna Farms, Kale/ Goat farms or any dilettante organic effort etc to replace tourism ain't gonna happen.
Tourism is King and without it we would be like the Marshall Islands.

Tourism is gonna be the main industry on this island, the sooner we all embrace that, the better off we will be. Here's a thought, why not become the go to eco tourist island of the Hawaiian Islands?

Such narrow mindedness and again, the know it all what is best for Hawaii. Why canʻt, for once, let the Hawaiian restore these islands instead of blocking everything they do or stealing their ancient practices as our own.

Tourism is just one of those things that may stay or may not stay depending on the fickle economies.

At the rate carpetbaggers (our government officials), tax and tax to subsidize damaging consequences of their bad decisions tourists may get fed up with Hawaii because the taxing is too high for them also.

No, the long term is to restore the health of the islands: quit allowing endless numbers of vehicles, CONTINUED rampant development, breaking new ground to pour concrete, etc.

RESTORE the Hawaiian way of working the lands.

Bottom line:
PMRF has made Kauai a military target.

War is a BIG business.

The military pollutes everywhere it goes, and "collateral damage" (the death of innocent people) is justified by using the "freedom" word.

This is Hawaiian Land, not America.....i.e. occupied by a foreign military power and multinational billion dollar companies.

If the sovereign nation of the Kingdom of Hawaii had not been stolen by the republican American businessmen one can only wonder what a great country Hawaii would have become. With their innate intelligence and strong work ethic their ability to thrive sustainably would have continued despite the decimation of their population by western disease. Upon realizing the dominance of the western powers they wisely chose to join rather than fight, and embraced the modern world. There was almost universal literacy in no time, and it was a a nation of inclusion rather than separatism. Sure there were and would have been cracks and bumps along the road as this nation grew (or should have grown) but what country doesn't suffer such, ie slavery, genocide imperialism. If the Kingdom of Hawaii had not been derailed this place would probably be the neatest place on the planet.
Oh and the idea that some other county would have invaded is ludicrous. There already were long standing treaties and agreements to have military bases in Hawaii (Pearl Harbor) as the US had and still has around the globe to protect it's and it's "friends" interests. A real shame that the KIngdom was overthrown and stolen.

The only people who seem to thrive in America are the 1%, the rich elite who have unfortunately found our little island in the sea and decided to turn it into their paradise get-a-way.

We look to the past for guidance from our kupuna. History shows that those who forget the past inevitably repeat the mistakes of the past.

Plain and just simply stupid to dwell in the past. Time to move on. What? The Hawaiian Soverign nation ... don't even dream about it! Its will NEVER gonna happen. Why live in the past? And forget Crown Land, no Hawaiian have never come up with a plan on the best use of the Land except to sell it to the highest bidder no matter where they came from. We all know MONEY talks! Its better to talk with MONEY in hand than to talk with no MONEY IN HAND!

So then when will the Kanaka rise up and take their kingdom back ? Never...it is not yours anymore You surrendered it . Hawaii will never be yours again. Ask the American Indians they will tell you . What was was. What is....is . Your "kahuna" do not have the answer or they would have risen up years ago no one is going to give Hawaii back to you . You must take it back but you can't take it back get over it. Stop kicking your dead horse it will never live again Blame whoever you want it is a waste of time and energy. Right or wrong it is gone

maybe the dilemma is that we are told not to dwell in the past, not to look toward a future and the present sucks...maybe that is why there is so much drug addiction and sorrow here.

I have read some heartfelt and intelligent postings here countered by downright profound ignorance.

No wonder Hawaii is such a mess: all the billy-bobs have taken up roots here and that includes the nouveau riche billy-bobs.

I feel great empathy for na kanaka.

It aint gone, it's a movement that's alive and well, in case you were asleep. There has been a lot of new developments in the effort with a lot of influential and important voices coming together to coalesce and move the petition forward that redresses the unlawful overthrow. Keep up with the news! As the US loses power and influence in this world the international community will enjoy enforcing the International Law, (the laws the US seems to hold so dear when it suits it's agenda) that clearly holds the Hawaiian Kingdom as legitimate and valid yet. It won't happen tomorrow and it might not truly overthrow the oppressors, but redress will happen and the Sovereignty will be restored. So get over it and yourself. It's a Good thing to right wrongs. It at one point was supposed to be the American way.

Such profound ignorance is right. It's kupuna idiot, our ancestors showed us the way by gathering signatures all across the islands and taking those petitions to Congress. That effort defeated the attempts at annexation by way of treaty because the majority in Hawaii opposed it. Like today America didn't play by the rules and passed a resolution that had no jurisdiction over Hawaii, a sovereign nation recognized by way of treaty with many other countries including the U.S.

No matter how much we cite the illegality of US action, all you can come up with is get over it. Never say never...there are lots of examples of countries regaining independence and I'm sure they had similar naysayers as you. We can endure the same ignorance our kupuna did because of great aloha for our lahui.

Some first Americans are doing very well on the mainland these days. Gaming has been a windfall for those responsible enough to use the money wisely. For others it's just meant more money for drugs and alcohol. But it has brought prosperity to quite a few. Be careful when using such a broad brush to paint ALL from the mainland in such a negative way. Would it be fair to paint ALL Hawaiians as lazy? This country, and yes Hawaii is part of this country right now, is way too polarized. Somewhere in the middle, compromise exists, and in order for ALL of us to survive we must strive to find it.

It would be convenient if we could all get along but the bottom line is that until there is justice for our people, we will stay polarized. Kanaka Maoli have lost too much while others have gotten fat off the land. The gap between the haves and the have-nots is real and it widens daily and contributes to even greater polarization.

There is no running away from the ugly truth of history and I bring up examples of the ugliness only to shoot down the high and mighty who believe the USA is the greatest country in the world and refuse to acknowledge its travesties of justice and genocide.

"...But whatever you do do NOT try to take Fed/State welfare programs away from the most "Hawaiian" island, Molokai. 80 percent of the residents are slopping at the free government trough.....a good example of what happens when you scare biz and visitors away. I don't care if it rains or freezes, just as long as I get my Government Cheeses."

It's a sad comment on the character of America's conservative culture that it bashes its own poor and hungry, while having no problem with corporations and billionaires getting enormous subsidies in the form of bailouts and tax privileges.

 OUR RANT/DREAM SEQUENCE
Que the mists, as the staff floats in a netherworld, colored b y red and green Christmas lights, as we walk together through a field of GMO Corn, and reach a crowded room, and one of us, brave souls steps up to a podium. The room is filled with Chucks, and Jonis and Joans, And seed corn execs and Tea Party Republicans, and Right Wing Christian Jihadists. There are planes flying above spraying chem trails everywhere, and half of the audience looks like unicorns. Suddenly, our Editor, begins to rant and rave onstage, and this is what pours forth from the mouth of our leader...but it isn't Joan. Joan has been replaced! With this strange, alien creature. HE begins to speak........

"ABOVE POSTINGS FROM AH THE MONEY RACISM AND HATRED IS RAMPANT ON HER BLOG WHICH IS MODERATED COMMENT AS WHICH MEANS SHE KNOWS FULL WELL WHAT EACH COMMENT IS AND DECIDES WITHER TO PUT IT UP OR NOT> She CHOOSES TO PUT UP THE MOST HATEFILLED RANCOROUS COMMENTS AGAINST NATIVE HAWAIIANS POSSIBLE. And THEN TRIES TO PANDER TO THEM WITH ARTICLES DESIGNED TO SUPPOSEDLY MAKE SOMEONE SOMEWHERE SHED A CROCODILE TEAR FOR THE FATE OF HAWAIIANS EVERYWHERE.

PLUS YOU ARE ONE OF THE MOST JEALOUS BE'EZ WE HAVE EVER SEEN. YOU DON'T HIDE IT WELL. YOU DON'T HIDE YOUR CONSERVATIVE RIGHT WING VALUES EITHER, NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY YOUR ASSOCIATION WITH CHUCK LASKER PUTS YOU AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SLIME BARREL. THIS MAN, IS A RIDICULOUS SCHIZOPHRENIC TYPE OF INTERNET POSTER, WHO CLAIMS TO HAVE BEEN A REPUBLICAN FOR OBAMA. YEAH RIGHT. YOUR ASSOCIATION WITH THE FOODBANK ALSO PUTS YOU AT THE TOP OF THE REPUTE LIST, AS JUDY WAS A REPUBLICAN, AND IT WAS STARTEDF BY REPUBLICANS. YOU KNOW SO THEY CAN KEEP TABS ON WHOSE TALKING ALL THAT FOOD, AND MOOCHING OFF OF EVERYONE. YEAH THAT'S RIGHT WE SAID IT AND WE WENT THERE. YOUR DIS-SINCERITY IS DISGUSTING, AS ARE YOU.

YOU ALIENATE EVERYONE EXCEPT THE LOONY BIN GRAVY TRAIN FRINGE. YOUR RANTS AGAINST TVRS AREN'T FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE. THEY ARE FOR YOUR OWN RESENTMENT AND JEALOUSY. YOU COULDN'T GIVE A RATS ASS ABOUT ANYONE, BUT YOURSELF. YOU HATE ANYONE WHO HAS A JOB WRITING, AND GETS PAID FOR IT. YOU ARE SO DESPERATE FOR THIS, YOU PUT A DONATION TAB UP ON YOUR BLOG, NEVER TOLD WHERE YOUR MONEY COMES FROM, AND THEN SIT THERE, AND WHINE ABOUT OTHERS AND WHERE THEIR FUNDING COMES FROM. Where is your funding from Joan? ? THE ROCKERFELLERS HAVE BEEN HIGHLY PHILANTHROPIC WITH THEIR MONEY, YOU KNOW LIKE TAKING CARE OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE LESS THEN THEM AND HELPING THE LITTLE GUYS OUT. I GUESS YO0U HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT THE HISTORY OF WOMEN, SINCE IF YOU HAD BEEN BORN AT THE TIME OF SUFFRAGE, YOU WOULD HAVE TOLD THOSE POLEDANCERS TO GO HOME AND SHUT UP. IT WAS ACTUALLY THE ROCKERFELLERS, AND THE VAN DER BILTS AND OTHERS WHO HELPED TO INFLAME THE FIRE FOR VOTING FOR WOMEN IN THIS COUNTRY WHEN PEOPLE LIKE YOU OTHER WOMEN, TRIED TO TELL THEM TO SHUT UP AND BEHAVE THEMSELVES. WOMEN LIKE YOU HAVE BEEN HOLDING BACK WOMAN FOR CENTURIES. IT IS WOMEN LIKE YOU THAT KEEP THE BURKA ON WOMEN AND PREVENT THEM FROM DRIVING AND GOING TO SCHOOLS. IT IS WOMEN LIKE YOU WHO SHAME WOMEN INTO THINKING THAT PREVENTION, AND USING CONTRACEPTION IS A BAD THING. IT IS WOMEN LIKE YOU THAT TRY TO SHAME OTHER WOMEN INTO FEELING ASHAMED FOR TRYING TO FIGHT FOR REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS. IT IS WOMEN LIKE YOU WHO TALK WITH A SEVERELY FORKED TONGUE LIKE ANY OTHER SNAKE IN THE GRASS, WHO PUTS DOWN MOTHERS, AND OTHERS WHO CARE ABOUT THINGS. YOU JOAN, ARE A HYPOCRITICAL MESS OF A HUMAN BEING. AND YES WE DARE TO TELL YOU WHAT YOU THINK AND WHO YOU ARE. WE SURE AS HELL DO. SINCE YOU DON'T SEEM TO KNOW YOUR HEAD FROM YOUR ASS ABOUT ANYTHING THAT YOU WRITE ABOUT. YOU THROW STONES TO SEE IF THEY HIT GLASS AND IF THEY DO YOU LIGHT A MATCH TO KEEP IT GOING. ALL TO SAY SEE WHAT A GREAT WRITER I AM, WHEN ALL YOU ARE DOING IS READING WHAT OTHERS HAVE WRITTEN AND COMMENTING ON IT.  WE AREN'T CLAIMING TO BE WRITERS. WE ARE SNARKISTS. WHAT IS ORIGINAL WITH YOU, HAH? NOTHING, AND NADA. YOU ARE INCONSEQUENTIAL.; NOTHING BUT A SMALL LITTLE WORM THAT CRAWLS ON THE GROUND, NEXT TO MEN AND WOMEN WHO STAND UP FOR SOMETHING AND FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT NO MATTER WHAT IT IS. YOU, JOAN, ARE AN ETERNAL DOWNER, THE ORIGINAL ANTI OF EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE. FRANKLY WE ARE ASHAMED FOR YOU AND HIGHLY DISGUSTED. BUT WE LOVE YOUR SNARK. AND FOR THAT AND THAT ALONE, WE PRAISE YOU AND WORSHIP AT YOUR SMARMY TOADS FEET. BECAUSE WE LOVE IT WHEN YOU FEED US SUCH DELICIOUS CHOCOLATY GOODNESS.

CANT YOU KEEP YOUR LITTLE PEONS IN L;INE? WELL THAT'S OK. WE WILL EXPOSE YOUR LITTLE “COMMENTATORS” ON OUR BLOG, WHERE OUR GOOGLE PLUS ACCOUNT HAS 12 thousand HITS. YEAH. LETS SEE WHAT PAPER WILL HAVE U WRITING FOR THEM NEXT. I AM SURE IT WILL BE IN SOME DEEP REDNECK COUNTRY SOMEWHERE IN MONTGOMERY WHERE THEY LIKE TO WEAR BLACK, AND BOOTS ON THE WEEKENDS WHEN THEY ARE SWILLING DOWN THEIR BEER AND SHOOTING OFF THEIR GUNS IN THE WOODS. WAY TO GO JOAN. WHAT A fkn legacy ! Rock on!"

Suddenly, we wake up, with severe stomach cramps and race to the bathroom. It is the dead of night. We trip over a bushel of GMO corn, and fall on a half opened bag of roundup, until we stumble into the bathroom and plop ourself on the commode, and suddenly, bursting forth from our tortured entrails, comes GMO CHOCOLATY GOODNESS!. But instead of being normal chocolaty goodness, each strained lump has a picture of Joan, and some of Chuck too, floating on top of them, saying...PROPAGANDA!!! PROPAGANDA!!!...

We awake, drenched with sweat, and grab a cup of water at our bedside, and assure ourselves that it was just a dream, just a dream!

OK KIDS AS PORKY PIG WOULD SAY...THAT'S ALL FOLKS!
