wad, Bynum!", to a computer screen as she typed that.
That has got to be the funniest line
ever in this entire blog!
My second favorite was..."Girl,
haven't you heard, 2491 is dead?", I can just see her, with her
lill;y white hands poised on a lilly white hip, and bustin out her
best ghetto slandg for that one, the other hand limp wristedly
flapping in the air, with her chin down, and her eyes bugging out, at
an imaginary jeri DiPietro, kinda like when that guy talked to a
chair for a couple of hourse, old whats his name..
God I love thisj j blog!!
Please, please please Joan never ever
stop writting it. I have no life without this blog I live for
it!"Shot your wad".
Girl-such eticate.
tsk tsk.
Laughing my ass off that was really
cool, Joan, you know your "hip" vernacular!
You can talk just like those young, hip
hippies do!
I so wanna be you when I grow up!

you in my next life, if I have really really good karma!Post a

"Shot your wad".

tsk tsk.
Laughing my ass off that was really

From a younger admirer, who wants to be

Um, can you please explain what that
actually means?
It means he spend all of his money,
right?
Just wondering, because I know this is
a G rated blog, and although I know that you do use swear words
occasionally, I don't recognize "shot his wad".
Did Joan actually write "Blew his
wad", in speaking of Tim Bynum?
How crass!!
Joan, that kind of writing is beneath
you. It belongs in a pornographic novel, and certainly not on a blog
read by people who do not wish to see such disgusting things!
Please, tone down your use of offensive
language, words, and pornographic references!
I know you are trying to b e "hiP"
and "cool", and all that, but between Dawson's liberal use
of swear words, and your offensive porn references, I am really not
sure we should be reading this with any seriousness. I mean, can we
really trust poeple to be telling us the truth, that write stuff like
"blew his wad", and "crap, bulshit", every other
sentence?
isn't that supposed to be what those
horrible redshirts do?
Why are you doing? Doesn't that mke you
as crass and disgusting as you say that they are?
It really is not very nice. If that is
what the Pro-GMO movement stands for, I for one, will side with the
red shirts!
Dear Joan:
I am a regular reader of your blog. I
am a "mature" person, (elderly) who does not like it when
people have to write swear words to get the point across or crass
language.
Did you actually write "Blew his
wad", in speaking of Tim Bynum?
How crass!!
Joan, that kind of writing is beneath
you. It belongs in a pornographic novel, and certainly not on a blog
read by people who do not wish to see such disgusting things!

language, words, and pornographic references!
I know you are trying to b e "hip"

of swear words, and your offensive porn references, I am really not

I mean, can we really trust people to
be telling us the truth, that write stuff like "blew his wad",
and "crap, bullshit", every other sentence?
isn't that supposed to be what those
horrible redshirts do?
Why are you doing? Doesn't that make
you as crass and disgusting as you say that they are?
It really is not very nice. If that is
what the Pro-GMO movement stands for, I for one, will side with the
red shirts!
Has someone high-jacked your blog
without your knowlege/ It certainly seems as if other people other
then you and Dawson are actually authoring your blog peices the last
few months. The tone and style of both blogs have changed, and it
seems that neigther one of these blogs are actually being written by
the original authors, but arre perhaps only being "rented out",
for a fee to other nindividuals, who cannot keep up the certaiin
style of the original authors.
I would assume perhaps that may be why
you don't write those lovely entry posts anymo0rre?
Because the real person writing them
cannot write like that?
I don't know, Joan, I am just trying to
rationalize why in the world you would be writing like that, goodness
gracious me, how horrific!
Please, stop that.
"Musings: What Ails Us"7 Comments - Hide Original Post
Each report is more dire than the
last — and I don't mean Election Day predictions.
No, I'm talking about the global climate, and the newest United Nations report that warns of “irreversible and dangerous impacts,” and an “increased likelihood of severe, pervasive and irreversible impacts for people and ecosystems.” As in the delicate, interwoven web of life is seriously fraying, folks. And nobody can claim we haven't been duly warned. It's the most comprehensive assessment of climate change ever undertaken, the work of some 800 scientists, and it leaves no doubt that the climate is indeed changing, with serious ramifications for agriculture, fresh water, islands and coastal communities, public health and the poorest among us. Our assessment finds that the atmosphere and oceans have warmed, the amount of snow and ice has diminished, sea level has risen and the concentration of carbon dioxide has increased to a level unprecedented in at least the last 800,000 years,” said said Thomas Stocker, Co-Chair of Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Working Group I. Yet despite the increasingly bleak findings, and the exhortation that steps can be taken to limit the effects, but they must be taken now, governments, industry and consumers across the globe are poised for business as usual: keep burning fossil fuels, and consume like there ain't no tomorrow. Because maybe there isn't. Or at least, not a tomorrow that looks anything like today, with its astounding biological diversity and cheap, abundant food. To quote from James Martin's book, “The Meaning of the 21st Century:” There are huge vested interests with massive financial reasons for not changing course... There is widespread ignorance... The desire for short-term benefits overwhelms the desire to solve long-term problems. That sure fits a lot of what ails us, especially the widespread ignorance part, which is ironic, considering people have more access than ever to information. But it seems that belief systems continually trump facts and evidence, which is why so many people will make stupid choices at the polls today. Like supporting the insane anti-farming initiative on Maui, for one. And duplicitous politicians, for another. It's kind of sad, seeing all the tattered campaign signs that are destined for the dump; all the money burned on ads; all the candidates waving alongside the road, and knowing that a lot of them will be going down in flames tonight — some justly, others not. Each election brings a new record for campaign spending, with the wealthy on the left and right trying hard to influence the outcome. But less and less truth is told, more and more ignorance is intentionally perpetrated. Is it any surprise, really, that we're in paralyzed denial about a huge issue like climate change, the precarious predicament of our species, when we can't — won't — even fix the failings of our political system? posted by Joan Conrow at 11:43 AM on Nov 4, 2014

Explain, if you can, how one single
solitary Chem Company or Seed Cvompany was laid off, lost their jobs,
or was in any single solitary way negatively impacted by 2491/
You cannot, because there is not opne
single incident that terminated anyone's employment due to 2491 or
960, and nor would there have been. Fact is, there never would have
been a single job lost to 2491.
The company you work for is expert at
dividing communities along racial, ethnic, religious, and political
lines for the good and gain of their pocketbooks.
They may have looked at 960 as an
excuse to cull a few of you back, in favor of migrant field laborors,
cuz let us be honest, the only “jobs” that there are out there
for “real Kauai poeple”, are a human scarecrow, and a field
applicator.
The cushy jobs go to mainlanders.
The rest go to migrant labor from other
countires.
Give me a break with the whole “ourn
company supported our families!', crap.
The companies employ very few local
people, and if they do it is in very menial jobs.
Name me three employees from each
company who is an executive, or a supervisor (not a field worker crew
supervisor, that is just glorified feildwork), that is BORN AND
RAISED on KAUAI.
You cannot. Impossible.
Do it, I will eat my shirt with Shoyu
and a big assed bucket of GMO corn, RAW!Uh-Oh Joan, you may get into
trouble with the GMO people, talking about climate change, and
writing that it may actually be a fact.
Don't you know that those 800
scientists think that chemical pollution is a major factor in global
warming, and that those scientists aren't on the GMO payroll?
These people may start giving you a
hard time, because GMO companies do not believe in global warming,
that is common knowledge.
They feel that people that believe in
global warming also believe in unicorns, and chem-trails.
I actually like unicorns.
I ho0pe you do to, Joan!
Just hope the GMO companies do not get
upset that you wrote that!
I hope that Ross, Kipu and Mel and
Arryl can forgive you too, since you have been so kind and helped
them out so much to get elected here on your very nice blog.
But don't upset them, by talking about
climate change and that it might be real, Joan, becasue I do not
think that they would agree with you!
And we really need those four to like
you, so that they will listen to all of the wonderful things you have
to say to the council, but please do not talk that global warming is
real, becasue that is just hippiue red shirt talk.
There is no global warming, there are
no unicorns, or chemtrails, and GMO is the best!
We love the GMo companies, and god
bless the GMO's!
Please do not beleive in global
warming. That is only for liberal losers, not nice bloggers like you,
Joan!
God bless you and keep you always.
The bible says there is no global
warming.
There is only the second coming of
christ, and the bible is beleived by every single human being on
earth, and no one is not a christian, so just beleive only what you
read in the bible, Joan.
There is no mention of global warming,
dinosaurs, chemtrails, or organic food in the bible, therefore these
things are against god and the bible, and should neverf be listened
too.
Also,l there were no environmentalists
in the bible either, so please remember Joan that the "greenies",
are bad poeple, and the "red shirts" are wicked too!
Red is the color of the devil.
Alright, I will concede, that the
colors used by the red shirts were
ethnic references to the colors of the
royalty and hawaiian pride and ethnicity, and that to make fun of the
royal red and gold of the alii colors is extremely rude, prejudiced,
and wrong, but Joan, seriously they are demons sent from the pit of
hell, to annoy gods anointed appointed messengers like yourself!
So, please, Joan, please say that
global warming is just a left wing, greenie redshirt conspiracy and
does not exist, becasue credible GMO scientists have not analyzed the
data yet, and so far they have not said tht there is any global
warming.
These 800 scientists are sent by the
devil to deceive poeple.
Do not listen to them, Joan, becasue
they are not sent from god.

gave the earth to man, to do whith it what man chooses to do, the
earth is man's dominion, and no where in the bible does God ever say
that man has to "protect and preserve' the earth, God said to
use everything for yourselves, becasue that is why he put everything
here, to use it all up. When man is done using everything that God
gave the poeple on earth, the apocolypse will happen, only poeple
that listened to God and the bible will be saved, and God will
destroy the earth, and all of the greenies and environmentalists, and
red shirts becasue they did not use everything up on the earth that
God gave them as a present, and so now God will destroy all of the
bad envoironmentalists just like he did Sodom and Gomorrah.
Only God can do this, and no one else.
They just have to be left alone to live the sad lives of deprivation
from all of gthe good things that God has provided, like GMO's, oil,
corporations, and being prosperous and happy.
They also will not be allowed to work
for a GMO company which will be very sad for them, and they will live
in poverty, and by that time, they will not have public housing or
welfarfe or social security, becasue GMO company policy is that you
have to work as a human scarecrow, even if you are disabled or blind,
deaf or any handicap, or even if you are very sick, becasue you only
have to sit there and chase birds.
THis is not a hard job, and if poeple
refuse to do it, they will not be able to gegt any free assistance
anymore.
That is the real future. Bible based,
good christanity and moral values, Joan.
I am a huge swupporter of GMO's. I am
80 years old, and I am a lifelong republican white male, and I
approved this message, beause I saw a vision of Saint Peter the other

"Musings: Lingering Drama"
45 Comments - Hide Original Post
The “red shirts” who endorsed the GMO/pesticide regulatory Bill 2491/Ordinance 960, which was killed by a federal judge before it took effect, are making a last gasp effort to salvage that piece of crap. They'll be rallying at Wednesday's Council meeting to protest proposed Bill 2562, which would repeal the invalidated law from the books.
This time, though, they'll be wearing black arm bands to mourn their defeated champions — informal polls show Councilmen Mason Chock and Tim Bynum are out, and Gary Hooser is barely hanging on by his fingernails — and chanting DON'T PASS THE BILL.
What's that old saying? Oh, yeah: “Karma's a bitch.”
Kauai Ohana member Fern Rosenstiel issued the tepid rallying cry on Facebook:
Its last minute and its late notice, but lets get together our ohana's and huis and be there to insist on supporting 2491 and provide testimony for NO REPEAL of 2491!!!!
Insist on supporting 2491? It's a little late for that. Haven't you heard it's dead, girl? As in the county is barred from implementing it on the grounds that only the state, and not any of the counties, is empowered to regulate GMOs and pesticides.
Which is why I shake my head when Kilauea resident Elif Beall says silly stuff like, “To abandon protections at the County level is to abandon looking out for our local residents' health and safety.”
Don't you guys get it? There are no protections at the county level. Ordinance 960, which didn't actually protect anyone's health, is DEAD. Even if it's not repealed, the county still has no power to regulate the chem/seed companies.
Gary showed he doesn't get it, and never will, when he labeled proposed Bill 2562 “an unfortunate example of political opportunism at the expense of our community.” Mmmm, you mean, like your entire last term on the Council, Gary?
Gary went on to say that “the Council may and should pursue other regulatory initiatives.”
Give it up, Gary. There ain't gonna be no more regulatory initiatives on GMOs and pesticides. You shot your wad, buddy, and you got nothing to show for it, save for legal bills, bad vibes, a big win for the seed/chem companies and sweat-stained red tee-shirts.
Councilmen Mel Rapozo and Ross Kagawa, who introduced proposed Bill 2562, say they want to repeal the dead law to stop the county from spending any more money on an appeal.
It's unclear whether a repeal would totally halt the appeal process, since Earthjustice, Center for Food Safety and other mainland groups have joined in. But if Ordinance 960 is repealed, winning on appeal would mean nothing, since the law would be off the books.
Meanwhile, Kilauea goat farmer and “red shirt” Louisa Wooten was absolutely right when she wrote, in a recent letter to the editor:
The voters in Kauai County and throughout the state need to pay attention and wake up to who is trying to control the power, land and economy of our home.
They sure as heck do. Make no mistake, folks, this is indeed the latest battle for land and power playing out in Hawaii. And it's mainland groups like Center for Food Safety, Pesticide Action Network and Surfrider that are jockeying for control of land and water in the Islands.
These groups have turned Hawaii into a “ground zero” poster child for their fundraising efforts. They're also using the Islands as a “test site” for experimental legislation and an anti-ag political agenda that they want to impose elsewhere. They're starting here because it's small, insular and easy to con the gullible into believing they're “malaming the aina,” even as they actually do nothing to reduce pesticide use or improve human or environmental health.
Every action these groups are taking is geared toward destroying big ag, which is essentially the only profitable ag in the Islands. When ag succeeds in Hawaii, land values level off. When it fails, land values are driven up. Hence the reward for the upscale Realtors who are also backing this movement.
A press release issued by Andrea Brower for the Coalition for 960 includes a comment from Aria Castillo, leader of the Kauai Young Democrats, saying she “hopes voters turn out in large numbers on November 4 to show their support for a council that is more willing to work together in the best interests of all of Kauai’s people.”
That's exactly what the voters will be doing. Which is why we're going to see a slap-down of certain candidates, a new power bloc on the Council, and a renewed focus on important county issues like roads, landfills, sewage, drug treatment centers, affordable housing and property tax reforms, rather than the single-issue politics of mainland advocacy groups that dominated this past term.

While the real local color is reduced to ghetto like existence in old plantation camps.
Keep on dreaming the county of Kauai spent all of the 50 million in surplus on consultant fees.
Yeah it's gonna cost the county 2 million to build a new roof on the Kilauea gym- now pay me my 110 k consultant fee. Hahaha cha ching.
Yeah its gonna cost about 350-450k for affordable housing- now pay me my 250k consultant fees. Hahaha cha-ching
Yeah we can have a landfill ova hea (cha-ching) no ova dea (cha-ching) nah jus keep em at the same place (cha-ching) millions in consultant fees.
Yeah we can have a drug facility in a neighborhood that doesn't want a facility because there's already many half-way houses that would lose federal funding (cha-ching).
Hey for solid waste lets double-triple tax the citizens. They won't know- they're too stupid and work too many jobs to notice this tax scheme. (cha-ching) tax schemers salary, consultant fees, and 3-6 million a yr from the stupid tax payers.
Property tax reform- do the county really want to SUE itself again to over turn the voters consensus of the 2% annual cap? Let's just raise the tax then lower so we can look like heroes (cha-ching) elected official seat for 55k to 115k yearly salaries
Now who's fooling who round hea? Guess its true the animals run this Kauai Dirty Pig Farm!
Tourist Y'all come back now u hea! But go back home! Mahalo very much fo yo money. Now I gotta pay these frickin county idiots. We all pay for these Frickin Idiots.
Whatever the results of the election.
The island is tired. Too much BS passion. Too much "I'm smarter than you". Too many Council members taking pot shots from the Council floor.
Whatever the results, if Jay is re-elected, whether he stays on as Chair or not, hopefully he will find some balance. He has really put his hat in with the newcomers and the Anti-Ag profiteers.
The new Chairman MUST keep ALL Council members and testifiers ON POINT. Hit the gavel, point of order, move the meetings along.
The budget looms like a big angry hornet's nest over the entire County.
This Council's legacy is -an angry citizenry, a divided citizenry, a broke County and finally NOT ONE thing was done by LAW to modify Ag's perceived bad actions.
Guaranteed, a NEW council with level heads WILL be able to work with Big Ag and, together they will work out plans for dust mitigation (the real big problem), testing etc......the Council has treated Big Land like they are law breakers and criminals....they are not.
They forget that only five people on Kauai voted for the 2491 veto override. Five.
So when the results come in and the winners are anti-2491 folks, the people WILL have spoken. Will the red shirts follow "majority rules," like they have been preaching, or will they hypocritically try to force their minority will on the majority?
I predict they will simply declare the election results corrupt, because faith-based beliefs are not altered by facts.
The new County Council of Hooser, Chock, Bynum, Felicia, JoAnn, Jay and Arryl just got elected.
They had a meeting at MIDNIGHT with all but Arryl Kaneshiro in attendance.
After congratulatory snickers and and sneers the new rules were in place-
The new Council will hold all meaningful meetings at Midnight.
Tim- the new Chairman announced the new laws.
The Police Department budget will be cut by 75 percent. The new department now called, Harmonious Living Services and will NOT be allowed to carry guns and must count to ten three times backwards before asking permission to see someone's ID. Theft and Vandalism from Big Land is OK. Tourist Theft is still a no-no and will have a 25 dollar fine per incident. All Drug Offenders will be let out of jail immediately.

The Planning Dept is abolished. The newly named, Department of Social Engineering will be headed by Gary Hooser. He immediately announced that all plans and permits are stopped. He will determine which will be a go or no go, on an individual basis. All of his friend's permits will go ahead and all Ag TVRs will be expedited.
The Parks Department is abolished. The New, Department of Social Rejuvenation is headed by DYLAN HOOSER. All non-residents will be required to pay $20 entry to parks per hour of use.

The Water Department is now part of the County and not a separate entity. it is headed by Gary Hooser, who will collect $200,000 per year as Water head. The Water Department, now called Resource Replenishment agency will NOT be allowed to use Restricted Chemicals and so Chlorine is abolished. The residents will have to boil the water for drinking.

GF, AandB and GandR will now be taxed at about $50,000,000 each. Tim will personally determine how excess funds will be spent. First on the list will be Anger Management Courses for anyone that throws pencils during Council meetings.

God Bless America.
because they have given us the other side of your story. They have also educated me and made me realize that pesticides and the foods produced by gmo crops have caused some people to suffer, they have animal studies to share that explain the dangers. I realize you will not agree with me, and that's fine----but, your retort to 11:51 is so mean spirited that i had to reply. Maybe if your response was kinder with a lot of facts, you wouldn't enrage people to have to respond with the same. I agree with 11:51, and she wasn't ugly or mean with her words! Be kind and reasonable---like Joan said, karma is a bitch---what goes around, comes around!
How to get rid of Gary and Tim without giving Mel control of the Council and making it ugly[ier]?
Yikes! Good luck to your kids if that's the kind of dysfunctional reasoning and non-critical thinking you're modeling for them.
I guess the show was better than the program.
The Chem/Bio companies are Lovin it! Basically the zoo keepers let the animals loose and are laughing at the big show. You clowns are just an after thought.
Or rezoning Grove Farm and A&B land.
Oh, please. If you think the sanctimonious bullshit of your previous post isn't obvious, you're in terminal denial.
We have talented and educated people on island that would better serve this county than these good ol boys and gals.
Now we have to suffer another 2 years for council and 4 years for the Mayor's seat.
Remember, this blog has been bashing these people because, of the lies and hypocrisy. Let’s finish our responsibility on November 4th.
Good luck to you all!
Remember, it is what it is. What happens will happen. At the end, let the Kauai County Council continue conducting Kauai’s responsible business for ALL OF KAUAI.
Anyway, at least Mel isn't a fan of overloading the vacation rentals.
We all have understanding that a new Council person needs a little time to learn the ropes, but Mason did nothing.
Ross, on the other hand, who has been ridiculed relentlessly by many Antis, showed quickly that he got to the point, faced issues head on and was a man, not a limpy little wimpy. Mason did nothing and acted like a limpy little wimpy.
He is a nice guy, but he was used by da Hoos and Bynum. They did NOT allow him to be the leader he may have been.
Now, maybe he can go work with his Sister and Gary at HAPA...they are getting major dollars
Extremism in defense of d'Aina is no vice
As for what happened to get so many people upset at the companies on Kauai, I've also written about that: It was an intentional fear-mongering campaign launched by GMO Free Kauai/Hawaii Seed after it failed to find any evidence of pesticide drift. Before that, it was just a small group of people bitching, quite rightly, about dust.
I'm happy to reiterate some of this going forward, but in these weeks leading up to the election, I thought it most important to enlighten voters about the sleazy politicians who have manipulated the public and a movement that used fear, lies and mob rule to polarize the community, push a flawed bill and attempt to impose a mainland-based political/social agenda.
Please give us factual evidence documenting "the people who have suffered and are suffering in our community because of the actions of certain companies."
Oh, wait -- there isn't any. Just lies, innuendo and fear mongering.
