ning. Slavery, the genocidal wars against Native American tribes, the conquest of Hawaii, lynching, Jim Crow–the list goes on and on.

When white people denounce white supremacy by name, and take action to combat the pernicious effects of white privilege, they starve white supremacist Nazis of the oxygen they need to thrive. Yes, I know it’s difficult for white people to talk honestly about racism to friends and relatives. But it’s nothing compared to what people who aren’t white have to deal with every day.

HAWAII SETTLEMENT WITH DRUG COMPANY SEEMS A TAD SMALL We're having too many of these

AN EASY WAY FOR WHITE PEOPLE TO FIGHT WHITE SUPREMACISTS

PHOTO COURTESY STEVENCDICKSON/WIKIMEDIA

It’s wonderful that so many people showed up Sunday night in front of the State Office Building in Wailuku for a candlelight vigil for the three people killed at a white supremacist Nazi rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. Vigils like these have become all too necessary. Two years ago we were calling for peace after a white supremacist killed nine black people at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston. It’s good to hold public vigils for the dead, but white people especially have to do more than that to stop the hate and killings from happening in the first place.

Being honest with ourselves, and with our friends and relatives, is a fantastic place to start.

And that means confronting, openly and honestly, a basic fact about life in the United States of America: the lives of white people in the U.S. aren’t the same as those of other races. It’s documented that whites have an easier time in a host of public services–getting loans, dealing with traffic tickets, finding a good-paying job, buying a car, etc. For too many television programs, white is still considered the “default” race.

“What does white privilege mean today?” Yale law professor Ian Ayres asked in his Feb. 24, 2015 New York Times op-ed “When whites get a free pass.” “In part, it means to live in the world while being given the benefit of the doubt.”

Most appallingly, The Marshall Project reported on Aug. 14 that “killings of black men by whites are far more likely to be ruled ‘justifiable.’”

“In almost 17 percent of cases when a black man was killed by a non-Hispanic white civilian over the last three decades, the killing was categorized as justifiable, which is the term used when a police officer or a civilian kills someone committing a crime or in self-defense,” The Marshall Project reported. “Overall, the police classify fewer than 2 percent of homicides committed by civilians as justifiable.”

You know what white privilege is? It’s describing the child Tamir Rice, who was shot to death by a Cleveland cop in November 2014, as

“a 12-year-old in an adult body” while calling 39-year-old embattled presidential scion/loser Donald Trump Jr. “a kid” and “a good boy.”

Many white people think it’s constructive to say that race is “just a construct” or that they “don’t see race.” This is all bullshit. White privilege exists. White supremacists exist. They inflict real pain on people and imperil what’s left of America’s democracy and rule of law.

Denouncing racism isn’t nearly the same thing as denouncing white supremacy, or even white privilege. Saying that an organization like Black Lives Matter (formed to denounce the unjust killings of blacks by law enforcement) is racist plays the white supremacists’ game.

Right now, today, there’s no justice in the United States. There is no “meritocracy,” no “colorblind society.” White people have long held powers and privileges in this nation that no other race enjoys. As long as that’s allowed to exist–as long as whites refuse to give people of other races the same benefit of the doubt that we’ve long enjoyed–there’s no hope of stopping the violence that happens in places like Charlottesville and Charleston.

President Donald Trump feeds off white supremacist hate because he’s white supremacist trash–gilded, of course, but gutter trash nonetheless. Still, anyone who thinks Trump started all this is wildly delusional.Yes, the words the Declaration of Independence say “all men are created equal,” but the actions of America have been white supremacist since the very begin-

Justice has been on my mind a lot lately. We seemingly hear about non-stop in the media, both in news and entertainment. In fact, cartoonish notions of “American justice” bombard us so much that it’s sometimes difficult to recognize a true injustice when we see it.

federal government last week in settling claims against Celgene Corporation (Celgene), a pharmaceutical manufacturer,” stated the news release. “Celgene had permission from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to market its drug Thalamid [sic] for skin conditions associated with leprosy and its drug Revlimid for transfusion induced anemia.

This settlement resolves allegations that Celgene illegally marketed both drugs for cancer treatments that were unrelated to the skin conditions and anemia. Celgene’s promotions encouraged what the FDA considers “off label” uses without first securing FDA approval.”

Wow, that sounds pretty bad. According to Chin, “Money from the settlement will help with further investigations and prosecutions of medical fraud in this state”–specifically, the dough will get split between Hawaii’s MedQuest program and the Hawaii Medicaid Fraud Control Unit.

Of course, Celgene denies it did anything

Mmm... drugs

I thought about this when I got the Hawaii Attorney General’s Aug. 7 news release titled “Hawaii Receives Approximately $477,000 in Settlement with Drug Manufacturer.” The money is part of a big multi-state settlement package totaling $280 million. At first glance, this sounds great.

“Attorney General Doug Chin announced today that Hawaii joined 29 states and the

wrong. “Celgene has denied any wrongdoing in this matter, but is settling to avoid the uncertainty, distraction, and expense of protracted litigation,” the company said in a July 25 statement.

After thinking about all this for a minute or so, I realized that $477,000 is a rather low figure–especially considering Celgene’s annual revenue (which also took me about a minute to find). Two days after agreeing to the settlement, on July 27, Celgene reported total revenue for the second quarter of 2017 at $3,268 million–that’s more than $3.2 billion. It’s also a whopping 19 percent increase over what the company made in same quarter of 2016.

Put another way, the settlement figure Hawaii is getting from Celgene represents 0.015 percent of what the company made in three months this year (to be fair, Celgene's complete settlement total of $280 million is 8.75 percent of what it made in three months).

In the U.S., this is called justice. ■ editor@mauitime.com + @apignataro For more news articles, visit: mauitime.com/news

The 100th Infantry Battalion Legacy Organization has awarded a $3,000 scholarship to Baldwin High graduate Layce T. Yamauchi. She was recognized at an Aug. 12 ceremony at the Nisei Veterans Memorial Center that was attended by Warren Yamamoto, President of the 100th Infantry Battalion Legacy Organization; the event was held in cooperation with the Nisei Veterans Memorial Center.

Yamauchi’s scholarship award was based on three criteria: an essay on the 100th Infantry Battalion, her academic performance, and her extracurricular activities.

According to organizers, her essay, titled “The Right to Fight,” provided a clear history of the storied 100th Infantry Battalion and 442nd Regimental Combat Team, two of the most decorated American combat units in World War II. In addition, Yamauchi was first in her class of 298 based on cumulative grade point average. And she was involved in a wide range of extracurricular activities, many in leadership roles.

Two other students on Oahu were awarded $1,000 scholarships.

Yamauchi graduated from Baldwin High School and will be attending Willamette University in the fall. Her parents are Lance and Lynn Yamauchi.

The 100th Infantry Battalion Legacy Organization is an educational nonprofit that perpetuates the legacy of the 100th Infantry Battalion and Club 100 for present and future generations through educational and charitable programs. It’s based in Honolulu and their scholarship is available to high school graduate students throughout the state.

The Nisei Veterans Memorial Center is a nonprofit organization that aspires to a

to build on that model.

Preparing residents for new careers in these sectors also surged under Skog with the launch and implementation of cuttingedge strategies in its STEM education-toworkforce program.

“I’m really honored by this recognition from the board,” Skog said. “I gratefully receive this on behalf of the thousands of individuals who joined our quest to make a difference in the economy of Maui County and the lives of our residents.

That includes 33 years of directors on our board, of dedicated staff who bring such zeal to their tasks, and incredibly generous partners who donate time and dollars to our projects.”

The Colin C. Cameron Award, established in 1994, is presented to deserving individuals whom the MEDB board feels has made outstanding contributions to strengthening and diversifying Maui County’s economy. Past award recipients include Senator Mamoru Yamasaki, Representative Joseph Souki, Mayor Hannibal Tavares and Senator Daniel K. Inouye.

MEDB’s Board of Directors also established a special Entrepreneurs and Leaders Fund in Skog’s name which will support opportunities to nurture the next generation of visionaries. The fund will be launched during the MEDB Ke Alahele Education Fund Benefit Dinner & Auction and guests will be able to contribute towards the special fund. A limited number of seats are still available for MEDB’s Aug. 26 fundraising dinner at the Fairmont Kea Lani. Visit Medb.org for more information. ■

News Of The Weird ANIMAL ATTRACTION Good fortune quickly turned to horror for a man in Allyn, Washington, who scored some raccoon roadkill to use as crab-trap bait on June 25. As the unidentified man walked toward home dragging the carcass behind him on a 15-foot rope (so he couldn’t smell it), two different vehicles stopped, and their occupants, mistakenly thinking he was dragging a dead dog, began berating the would-be fisherman. As the dispute heated up, someone produced a gun, shooting the man twice in the leg before he was struck by one of the vehicles as the assailants fled.

In New Hampshire on June 29, a state police officer stopped the 57-year-old driver of a Honda Odyssey minivan who had piled a Beverly Hillbillies-esque stack of belongings on top of his car. The collection, which was about as tall as the minivan, included a wooden chest, a bike, a floor lamp, a rake, a snow shovel, a moving dolly and a folding ladder, along with blankets and towels and a shopping cart full of items hanging off the back. Police cited the driver for negligent driving, and the car was towed away.

A Canada Day parade in southern Ontario sparked a flood of typically mild protests over Dave Szusz’s float, which featured a 3-meter-tall blow-up Jesus (holding a baby sheep) and several real sheep. “I thought it was kind of sad to see sheep out with very loud blasting music, out in the heat in the city,” said animal rights activist Dan MacDonald.

Others flooded Szusz with complaints on Facebook. Szusz and MacDonald have since talked it out, although MacDonald still hopes Szusz will discontinue using sheep on his floats.

Six suspects in a June 25 Denver mugging counted among their spoils the victim’s brand-new iPhone. After using Ryan Coupens’ credit cards at a nearby Walgreens, the thieves used the phone to post a Snapchat story about their shenanigans to Coupens’ account, where his friends–and police–could clearly see some of their faces.

FAMILY VALUES Flower girls at weddings often steal the show, and Georgiana Arlt of Chaska, Minnesota, was no exception as she walked down the aisle on July 1. The 92-year-old grandmother of the bride, Abby Arlt, told her granddaughter the only other wedding she had been in was her own, when she was 20 years

old. Abby had hoped to have her grandfather as the ring bearer, but he passed away last year.

SUSPICIONS CONFIRMED Karen Leclair, 51, of Albion, Pennsylvania, was reported missing on June 11 by her commercial fisherman husband, Christopher, 48, after she went over the side of his boat on Lake Erie.

Christopher told police he hadn’t been watching when his wife fell overboard.

When her body washed ashore on July 4 in upstate New York, however, she had a gunshot wound in her head, and she was bound by nylon fishing rope and weighted with an anchor. Christopher was charged with her murder after the gun used to shoot Karen was found under a bed in their home.

OH, THOSE MONKEYS A monkey mystery unfolded near Mesa, Arizona, in early July as drone owner Jesse Sorensan dispatched his device over a facility rumored to house abandoned monkeys. “Hovered above it and took some pictures... and sure enough there’s monkeys in almost all the cages,” said Sorensan. “What are these monkeys doing... in the middle of the desert?” Local TV reporters looked into the mystery and found the facility is used for research and breeding for the University of Washington and the Centers for Disease Control, who were quick to point out that the monkeys have access to air conditioning and veterinary care.

WHO YOU GONNA CALL? Villagers in the eastern Thailand province of Amnat Charoen have called in the Royal Thai Police Force to help rid them of an evil female spirit, “phi pob,” they accuse of killing four cows and sickening four border police officers, reported the BBC in June. In Thai folklore, phi pob can possess people and sow chaos, including a 2016 incident in which neighbors were forced to strip naked at gunpoint by three reportedly possessed individuals. Adul Chaitprasithkul, the local police chief, noted, “More people believe in phi pob than those who don’t.”

PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS Police in Dearborn, Michigan, are hoping a thief’s unusual loot may draw him back to the scene of the crime.

ON DA BEACH FIGHTING THE FEAR AS HAWAII PREPARES FOR NUCLEAR WAR

BY ANTHONY PIGNATARO

I

t’s a gorgeous afternoon, and I’m at a beach in Kihei. It’s warm and clear; the sun is blazing over a crystal blue ocean. But I’m not there to jump in the water–instead, I’m searching for a cave that will protect me and possibly my loved ones in the event of a nuclear attack.

I’ve been tipped off by a friend as to its existence (because of the nature of this story, I’m going to keep the actual location of the cave a secret, though I will give you a hint: it rhymes with “coat damp”) but it still takes me a few minutes to find it. Once I do, though, I’m disappointed: the cave is small, looking like it’ll only protect a family of four for about 15 seconds. The ceiling is very low, it only goes back about 10 feet and there are a disconcerting number of spider webs around.

No, it simply won’t do.

My search began not long after CNN’s Aug. 9 report “Hawaii: First state to prepare for nuclear attack.” The story, based in large part on an interview with Hawaii Emergency Management Agency (EMA) Administrator Vern Miyagi, as well as materials prepared by the Hawaii state Department of Defense, listed a number of recommendations on what people should do in the event of a nuclear attack. The last one caught my eye: “If you are on the beach with no chance of getting to a structure, look for a cave.”

10 AUGUST 17, 2017

Were we all living on Gilligan’s Island, where there seemed no shortage of large caves around in the event of typhoons, tsunami waves or that one time when all the castaways suddenly became allergic to Gilligan and he needed a place to hide out.

But here on Maui, I can’t really think of a lot of beach caves off the top of my head.

Turns out that ducking into a cave isn’t exactly on the list of recommended procedures Hawaii emergency officials typically tell the public. According to Lt. Col. Charles Anthony, public affairs officer for Hawaii DOD, during the CNN interview with Miyagi, the reporter asked him if it would be okay for people at the beach to hide in a cave during an attack.

Miyagi answered sure, according to Anthony, before adding that it’s far more likely that people at the beach would be closer to large structures like hotels that they could run into.

“I guess when you’re being interviewed on camera, you don’t always think through the answer,” Anthony told me. “This is not part of our normal information that we would ordinarily disseminate to the public.

And we have no plans to add caves or lava tubes to our list of places where to shelter.”

So yeah, the whole cave thing was hype, but it’s far from the only alarmism that’s happening here.

CNN’s whole cave advice was silly and absurd for a whole bunch of reasons, but Miyagi’s description of how much warning Hawaii residents would get of a nuclear missile strike launched by North Korea was as scary as you can get. “Pacific Command would take about five minutes to characterize a launch, where the missile is going, which means the population would have about 15 minutes to take shelter,” Miyagi told CNN. “You can’t take time to call your wife, your kids, your husband to pick them up and try to find a shelter. There is no time for that.”

What is this, 1955? North Korea has been working on nuclear weapons for the last decade, but now suddenly that Trump is in power we all have to hunker down and fear for our lives on a daily, if not hourly basis.

In a way this was inevitable. Terror is clearly the tone of the 21st century. Sure, New York and Washington were attacked back in 2001, but how many millions of people around the world have spent the last few decades living in fear of U.S. military power?

And now, the nuclear weapons we brought into the world are potentially pointed at us.

Assuming you survive the blast from a nuclear explosion (and that’s contingent on factors like the size of the warhead, where it lands, the availability of nearby shrapnel and the surrounding topography), you’ll have to hunker down in your shelter for about two

weeks, while the surround radioactive fallout dissipates. Forget spending two weeks in a cave by the beach–you want to spend two weeks in your office? Or the mattress section of Sears with a few hundred other people?

Assuming you heard the warning siren and have a full 15 minutes to find yourself a proper shelter, Hawaii EMA recommends ducking into a basement or concrete structure. And remember, this is Hawaii in 2017–not the videogame world of Fallout. Nuclear shelters are long gone, and they’re not coming back.

“There are no designated blast or fallout shelters in Hawaii,” states the Hawaii DOD’s Guidance Summary for Coordinated Public Messaging: Nuclear Detonation handout. “Local AM-FM broadcast radio is most survivable and may be useful in advising the public post-detonation.”

Nuclear weapons have been around since 1945, but we’ve still never found a way to live comfortably with them. The Cold War has been over for more than a generation, but thousands still exist, in bomb bays, missile silos and submarines, patiently waiting for someone to use them and end all life on earth.

“Then a tremendous flash of light cut across the sky,” John Hersey wrote in his 1946 New Yorker story “Hiroshima.” “Mr. Tanimoto has a distinct recollection that it traveled from east to west, from the city toward the hills. It seemed a sheet of sun.”

So here we all are, effectively sitting on a beach on Maui waiting for either the nutty Kim Jong-Un in Pyongyang or the equally

“

Afghanistan, the invasion and occupation of Iraq and countless other actions (publicized and not) involving drone strikes and special forces actions, and you get a picture of a United States that likes to bully other nations (often killing civilians in the process). This history did not originate with Trump, of course, which just lends more weight to the North Korean view that the only way to keep them safe from the U.S. is to build nuclear weapons.

“North Korea learned from Iraq that Saddam Hussein’s mistake was he did not pos-

it. There’s no consultation with Congress, no declaration of war. The whole blasted process is wildly unconstitutional, but the traditionally bipartisan manner in which foreign policy has been conducted throughout the Cold War meant Trump came into office with one of the most power nuclear arsenals in history primed and waiting for his command.

If the Trump administration really thinks North Korea is the biggest threat at the moment, why is the administration failing to exert discipline on its responses to North Korea?

- Sharon Squassoni

nutty Donald Trump in Washington (or perhaps his golf course in New Jersey) to start World War III. If it seems stupid to you that one of the smallest, poorest nations on earth is threatening us, and that we’re, in turn, threatening one of the smallest, poorest nations on earth, then embrace the fact that we truly live in an Age of Stupidity (just for some perspective, on Aug. 11 Trump also threatened military action against Venezuela).

Very long story short, the North Korean regime is terrified that the U.S. will invade

sess the weapons of mass destruction he was falsely accused of having,” Professor John Delury, of the Yonsei University Graduate School of International Studies, said in a Sept.

9, 2016 BBC story. “Libya taught a similar lesson. So, until we can help Pyongyang find a credible substitute to guarantee its security, and give Kim Jong-un the kind of prestige that comes with being a member of the nuclear club, then we can expect more tests, more progress and more ‘provocations’.”

President Trump has, in his typical fashion,

The bomb dropped on Hiroshima had the explosive power of about 18 kilotons–the equivalent of 18,000 tons of TNT–making it tiny by today’s standards. By contrast, today’s B61 nuclear bomb can deliver up to 340 kilotons, while our largest ICBMs can each carry a dozen 475-kiloton warheads. The Hiroshima bomb killed at least 66,000 people outright (the vast majority being civilians) and injured another 69,000. Untold thousands died in the days, weeks and months later from radiation poisoning.

Though it’s not well known today, after Japan surrendered America’s top military commanders–Generals Dwight Eisenhower, Douglas MacArthur, George Marshall, Henry Arnold and Admirals Ernest J. King, Chester Nimitz, William Halsey and William Leahy, among others–all insisted that the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki played no decisive part in the ending of the war. The Japanese Empire, these commanders noted, was finished before the fateful Aug. 6 and Aug. 9 atomic bombings.

Of course, none of that mattered. We had the bomb, and it was up to a politician to decide to use it. I know it’s scary nowadays to watch Pastor Robert Jeffress, an evangelical adviser to President Trump, say that “God has given Trump authority to take out Kim Jong-Un,” but in terms of terrifying hubris, not much tops Truman’s filmed statement to the American people right after we bombed Hiroshima.

“We thank God that it has come to us and not to our enemies,” Truman said.

“And we pray that he may guide us to use it in His way and for His purposes.”

Of course, just four years later God gave the bomb to Stalin and the Russians, so maybe we weren’t so special after all.

You know what was special? Four decades of living with the thought of an all-out thermonuclear apocalypse. I know it’s kinda novel for people today to run around worrying about North Korean nukes, but I have vivid memories as a kid in the early 1980s laying up at night wondering if the world would blow up before I got to school the next day.

The days of “duck and cover,” when our government showered us in propaganda meant to convince us that we could “win” a nuclear war with the Soviets, stretched long into the 1980s (thankfully, I didn’t learn until I was much older that on Sept. 23, 1983, we really did come within a hair of an all-out nuclear exchange when the Soviet early warning system malfunctioned and, for a few terrifying minutes in Moscow, it looked like the U.S. had launched five missiles at them).

There is, of course, no winning in nuclear war. Whether one warhead is detonated or 10,000, the resulting death and destruction is indistinguishable from genocide. Arguing otherwise is intellectual barbarism. In any “exchange,” regardless of civil defense preparations, many thousands of people will die. If Trump orders the use of nuclear weapons on North Korea, then he’s committing a war crime (and yes, I believe Truman’s use of atomic bombs on Japan was also a war crime, as were the whole terror bombing campaigns employed by the U.S., Great Britain, Germany and Japan during that war).

And make no mistake: the use of nuclear weapons in the United States is at the discretion of the president, and only the president.

The Secretary of Defense plays no legal part in it. The president instructs his military commanders to use nuclear weapons and that’s

I suppose there are worse spots to watch the apocalypse

them. Their evidence for this goes back to the original Korean War, when Presidents Truman and Eisenhower both openly talked about nuking the north. And it wasn’t just them, either: long before he became President Bill Clinton’s Treasury Secretary, Texas Democrat Lloyd Bentsen asked Truman to drop atomic bombs on North Korea. You may not remember these statements, but you can be confident the North Korean government does.

Add to this old history relatively recent events like the invasion and occupation of

made everything much worse. The latest threats/counter-threats/counter-counterthreats started on Aug. 8, when reporters asked Trump (at his golf course, naturally) about a Washington Post story published that morning saying that North Korea could not fit a nuclear warhead onto a missile, potentially allowing them to build an ICBM capable of reaching not merely Alaska and Hawaii, but also much of the U.S. Mainland.

“North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States,” Trump said.

“They will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen.”

The remarks were apparently improvised, though Trump has often used the “like the world has never seen” cliche many times in the past. But the off-the-wall verbiage in the quote–“fire and fury”–was frankly something we’re used to seeing come from, well, North Korea. Trump’s statement that North Korea also needed to stop making “threats” was also especially problematic–Kim Jong-Un makes wild threats at least as often as Trump does.

And sure enough, just a few hours later, North Korea followed up with bombast of its own, calling Trump’s statement “nonsense” (gotta agree with that one) and saying that they were making plans to launch missiles at the waters just off Guam in mid-August.

Granted, the specificity of that particular threat has led some analysts to conclude that they’re probably talking about launching unarmed missiles as part of a test, but it’s incredibly provocative nonetheless (on Aug. 14, the North Korean regime seemed to back of fthe threat to launch on Guam, but it’s still impossible to say exactly what, if anything, they’ll do).

Of course, our recent military exercises over South Korea involving B-1B heavy bombers (which actually can’t carry nuclear weapons) must seem equally provocative to North Korea.

On Aug. 10, Trump responded to the Guam threat by somehow summoning even more dick-swinging, garbled bombast. “The people in this country [I think he means the U.S.] should be very comfortable, and I will tell you this: if North Korea does anything in terms of even thinking about attack, of anybody that we love or we represent or our allies or us, they can be very, very nervous,” Trump said. “I’ll tell you why, and they should be very nervous. Because things will happen to them like they never thought possible.”

The media mostly played this up as Trump threatening North Korea with nuclear annihilation, which he certainly was. But a couple things stood out: first, the U.S. has often threatened North Korea with nuclear attack– it’s long been our way of deterring them from invading South Korea again. And secondly, Trump had backed down from his earlier assertion. On Aug. 8 he was warning North Korea not to make “threats,” but two days later he changed his focus to a potential “attack”–a far higher threshold for going to war.

Of course, all this assumes the North Koreans actually have the capability to build and launch a functioning, armed intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM)–one that can reach the Mainland, Hawaii or even Guam.

Back in April, when North Korean nuclear terror started to ratchet up in Hawaii, I reported a couple of stories based on the premise, from Center for Strategic and International Studies Proliferation Prevention Program Director Sharon Squassoni, that “North Korea is still a few years away from being able to target U.S. territory.” Even with all the fire and brimstone coming from Washington–including that Aug. 8 Washington Post story–this still seems to be the case.

That’s because there’s a lot more to building a workable, targetable, launchable ICBM than simply miniaturizing a nuclear bomb to fit beneath a rocket’s nose cone.

“It’s very difficult to know exactly what capabilities North Korea can field because Continued on page 13

Continued from page 11 the United States must rely on remote monitoring technology like satellite imagery,” Squassoni told me in an Aug. 12 email. “North Korea has often exaggerated its capabilities in the past (like declaring it has a hydrogen bomb) because that suits its purposes. Even U.S. government assessments at this point are likely best guesses.

No one knows for sure whether North Korea has been able to scale down the size of its warheads so they can fit atop a missile that could reach the United States.”

Two recent stories from the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists–long one of the best and most rational journal of nuclear weapons research and philosophy–pour a lot of cold water on the hype surrounding North Korean nuclear missiles. In her Aug. 7 Bulletin story “Talk to North Korea to avert a nuclear disaster,” writer Elisabeth Eaves asks Siegfried S. Hecker, a former director of the Los Alamos National Laboratory (one of the main labs used in the development of the first atomic bomb), if North Korea can right now launch an ICBM that can hit Hawaii or the U.S. Mainland. His answer is worth quoting at length: “I think not yet, but these two tests demonstrate substantial progress and most likely mean they will be able to master the technology in the next year or two,” said Hecker. “The North Koreans have very cleverly combined various missile stages and rocket engines to get this far, but a reliable, accurate ICBM will require more testing.

In addition, it is not clear whether they have sufficiently mastered reentry vehicles, which are needed to house the nuclear warhead on an ICBM. Advanced reentry vehicles and mechanisms to defeat missile defense systems may still be five or so years away.

However, make no mistake, North Korea is working in all of these directions.”

Because ICBMs travel into space on their way to their target, their warheads need a proper “reentry vehicle” to keep them from being destroyed when reentering the earth’s atmosphere. Reentry shielding is difficult to engineer properly, and even when done correctly adds a lot of weight to the missile, potentially limiting the size of the warhead (or warheads).

A second Bulletin story, published on Aug. 11 and written by Theodore A. Postol, Markus Schiller and Robert Schmucker, is even more definitive. The article analyzes

two North Korean missile tests in July and concludes that no, North Korea cannot yet field a nuclear-armed missile capable of hitting the U.S. Mainland (in fact, the authors note, it’s doubtful North Korea’s latest missile can even hit Alaska). Of course, this isn’t a definitive answer–just the best analysis based on available evidence.

“At this time, no one outside of North Korea has solid information about the characteristics of North Korea’s nuclear weapons designs–especially about whether or not the weapons that have been tested are cumbersome laboratory devices or readily militarized designs that could be put into bombs or carried on ballistic missiles,” states the Aug. 11 Bulletin article. “This information is simply not available at this time.”

For Squassoni, who makes her living studying nuclear proliferation, all this speculation about what the North Koreans can actually field is beside the point.

“If the Trump administration really thinks North Korea is the biggest threat at the moment, why is the administration failing to exert discipline on its responses to North Korea?” she said in her Aug. 12 email. “If this is really the biggest threat, wouldn’t it be paramount to have a single, crystal-clear message that is designed not to aggravate the North Koreans into taking risks but to defuse the tension? More importantly, why does the Trump Administration feel so threatened when our nuclear weapons outnumber North Korea’s by about 4,000?”

There’s already so much to fear in our country today–notably the Trump Administration’s sympathy to white supremacists and Nazis, denial of climate change and attacks of voting rights and civil rights. It’s contemptible that Trump now wants us to panic about North Korea.

“Washington should tone down the rhetoric,” Squassoni said. “North Korea, despite its provocative behavior, is not a real threat to the United States. Despite all the bluster, Kim Jong Un undoubtedly knows that a significant strike (nuclear or not) on U.S. troops or soil would be suicidal for him and his regime.

The most important objective for Washington should be getting North Korean officials to sit down and talk. There has to be flexibility on both sides for that to happen.” ■ editor@mauitime.com + @apignataro For more news articles, visit: mauitime.com/news

rant,” says Panzo. “It was Mother’s Day, and I thought that was appropriate. Kimokeo said that she comes from a single log of koa, from a single tree in Ka`u. The tree had to be at least 200 years old for it to be this long. We were getting ready to bless her. Four doors down from Nalu’s is Cora’s Flower Shop, they were really busy because it was Mother’s Day. She had family that had come in to help, and around two in the afternoon they came out of the shop exhausted from the day. They perked up when they saw us with the canoe and came toward us to ask us about the boat.

They said, our uncle made this canoe. We are all from Hilo. Next thing you know they form a circle around the canoe and Kimokeo gave his blessing and the canoe got its official send off from the Hilo Ohana to its new Maui Ohana. On her bow it says ‘Holomua’ and that is the name of our company. Holomua means to persevere, to move forward.

We feel that is a fitting name for her.”

Panzo says the name of the restaurant Nalu’s comes from a different translation of the word than you might think.

“The most popular translation for Nalu is the energy of the ocean that creates the wave,” says Panzo. “There is also a hapaHawaiian phrase, with a slang meaning, and that is to go with the flow. That is how we are using Nalu, to go with the flow.

Our menu goes with the flow, because it’s seasonal. We have fishing boats that pull up in front of our restaurant to sell us fresh fish. Depending on the bite, we have mahi, ono, or ahi. It’s the same things with the greens. Sometimes we have dragonfruit, sometimes we have mango. In doing this, our menu changes. The menu goes with the flow of nature.”

n the two years since it opened, Nalu’s South Shore Grill in Kihei has grown to be a favorite of residents and visitors alike. What’s more, they just launched a new dinner and show concept with Barry Flanagan of Hapa and Eric Gilliom on Saturday nights. They have a winning combination of great food, entertainment and atmosphere. But that wasn’t always the case for this spot in Kihei, which struggled for years. I asked owner Ron Panzo about what made him take the jump with this Azeka location that some thought was cursed.

“I live around the corner,” says Panzo.

“So after Lu Lu’s closed I wasn’t ready to quit. Lu Lu’s was such a challenging restaurant in my career. But you know, you learn things. The challenges you face make you reflect on things. Instead of getting down and discouraged you can learn and try to improve. I think Nalu’s is what came out of that experience of Lu Lu’s in a way.”

He says the location intrigued him. He travelled for two years looking for concepts that sparked his interest and kept that spot in mind.

“I live right down the street from this restaurant and I would drive by going to Ace or other places,” says Panzo. “I would look at the place and think, there is all this parking, there are busy locations nearby. There is this incredible view of Ulupalakua and Haleakala.

Every morning I am here Haleakala has no clouds she looks so majestic, I just feel her mana as well and the blessings from that. I saw the possibilities. I didn’t understand why

nothing had worked here.”

He came up with a menu that bridged local flavors with healthy options, but a completely new way to look at it.

“I spent two years with that place in mind, I went to the Mainland and collected ideas,” says Panzo. “I travelled around to San Francisco, Napa Valley and restaurants in Nevada. I was looking at things that were different than what we had on Maui. I believed a lot of times here on Maui we are on a rock–we watch what each other are doing and come up with our own versions. I really wanted something fresh, something completely new. At the time nobody was doing fried chicken and waffles, and it is such a staple on the Mainland. It wasn’t here on Maui yet. Things like that.”

Doing counter-ordering was also strategic.

“I felt the concept with the counter would allow me to focus on the food,” says Panzo.

“With the counter, you don’t need as much labor in the front of the house.You can direct that energy into the kitchen and the food. It’s also about having the right staff. Keeping our turnover low, and keeping the consistency of our dishes. By controlling front of the house resources we put that back into keeping our ingredients local. Our burgers are from Makaweli Ranch–grass fed beef from Kauai. Our produce is local as much as possible. It has been more difficult with Rat Lungworm but we are striving to keep that directive for our produce.”

Nalu’s General Manager, Vanell Kai, has been there since Day One. She says the menu has such a great reception they never launched the dinner menu.

“Ron was a visionary when it comes to our menu concept,” says Kai. “Everybody has enjoyed our breakfast and lunch menu including the salads so it just worked. We had plans for a dinner menu but we never launched it because everyone loves this menu. The favorites are the acai bowl, fried chicken and waffles.

The cornflake-crusted French toast is popular, and so are the pancakes! It’s actually tough to name the most popular dishes because so many sell so well. The breakfast salad and loco moco are also top sellers at breakfast.”

Panzo rescued a canoe from Hilo that hangs in the entrance. He credits the trials and tribulations of rescuing this four-person koa canoe from the Big Island towards the success of the restaurant. Minute Stop in Hilo was dropping their ceiling and literally planned to chop the canoe up and throw it in the dumpster. Panzo had to drop everything and fly over to grab it.

While there, local lore says the honu on the ‘ama was shedding tears. Panzo thought this might be a bad sign and nearly gave up his effort, until Native Hawaiian cultural practitioner Kimokeo Kapahulehua called him right at that moment of doubt.

“I don’t know if you have ever seen pictures of the Mother Mary with tears of blood, it was the same thing, says Panzo. “The manager from Minute Stop had taken photos and asked if I wanted him to send them to me. I said no, no, no. I was ready to walk away from the canoe at that moment. I didn’t want to bring any bad juju to this location. It’s not like I am superstitious, but I did see the photo, and everyone around me saw it and had the same reaction. My phone started ringing right at that moment. It was Kimokeo Kapahulehua.

He had heard through the coconut wireless about the canoe and that I had gone to Hilo to save it. I told him I was there, and what happened with the photo. I said, ‘I don’t think I am going to bring it home.’ I didn’t want to bring any bad energy to that spot. We are talking about a location that struggled for 12 years. Nothing had really worked in there.

I said I think I’m going to leave it. He came back and said, ‘No that is our kupuna, you bring it home and I will bless her.’ I believe in Kimokeo, so we brought it back. He believed that the tears we saw were tears of joy, because we were rescuing her.”

Then when they had restored her beauty after days of sanding and varnishing, they were ready to install her in the restaurant.

“We had her on the side of the restau-

Funny Guy TALKING STORY WITH POWER UP COMEDY’S CHUCK THOMPSON material on new people every week!

Frequently the bar is quite lively and it benefits comedians like me that are very loud. Sometimes the restaurant has a lot of families that are jet-lagged and looking for good food and challenges us comedians to tone it down and work clean, not using foul language.

MT: What’s the biggest show you have done?

Chuck Thompson of Power Up Comedy

C

huck Thompson loves comedy. So much so that he branded his own special blend of funny, and won the Best Comedian slot in this year’s Best of Maui readers poll. But Thompson is relatively new to the comedy stage, so we caught up with him before his vacation to New York to find out what makes this cab driver laugh and how he empowers the Maui comedy scene.

MAUITIME: What was your first experience on a stage doing stand-up?

CHUCK THOMPSON: Shortly after I moved to Maui around Christmas 2013, I started doing open mic at Stella Blues in Kihei. I had two friends who lived out here who I cannot thank enough because they signed me up for open mic against my will. They set a trap, each ordered me a beer and a dozen buffalo wings and while I was chowing down in bar food heaven I got called to the stage completely surprised. I winged it and got a round of applause. I was completely hooked on stand-up comedy. On my way home I bought three college ruled notebooks

and wrote down every funny thought I had. I then bombed for about three months every week I showed up for open mic. The comedy scene here is very supportive–I cannot thank my friends and other comedians from Power Up Comedy enough.

MT: “Winged It”–I get it! How did you grow your material?

CT: The first few months I was doing comedy it was once a week in a small, dark, closed-off room with a great stage amongst friends and a handful of other comics. When Stella Blues closed down, we thought we lost our comedy home.

Luckily we were able to move to Three’s Bar and Grill. After the transition our crowds went from 20 people to 60, and now during busy season sometimes 100 people at night. Even the comedians performing grew and changed. Power Up Comedy has made a name for itself and almost every week we have a visiting comedian who’s excited to do the feature spot. Our crowd is a big mix of tired, sunburned tourists and locals coming in for their pau hana. This offers me a great opportunity to try my

CT: I’ve been lucky enough to perform at Iao Theater when I opened up for William Shatner last New Year’s Eve. Most of our venues are not that big.

In fact, my favorite venue seats about 20 and we do it once a month in a comic book store in Kahului. Every third Sunday you can catch myself and other Power Up Comedy favorites at Maui Comics and Comics. The second Wednesday of every month we go Upcountry and do a show at Stop Watch– that crowd knows how to have a good time! Always check out the open mic at Three’s Bar and Grill. If you still can’t get enough of my uncontrollable yelling, tune in to my radio show “Biscuits and Gravy” on Kaku 88.5, the Voice of Maui. The Gravy Train departs every Wednesday at 11am. I love doing radio–on my show we talk about my two favorite things, cooking and comedy!

I have an awesome co-host and a good friend I want to give a shout-out to– Vince Foti. Vince and I started open mic on the same day and has been rockin the mic ever since.

MT: Where does your love for comedy come from?

CT: I grew up watching mid-’90s Saturday Night Live reruns on Comedy Central and always loved and admired Norm MacDonald. I love deadpan dry comedy. But I also love when comedians talk about themselves and their family dynamic, like comedians Chad Daniels and Chris Rock. I come from a large family where comedy is appreciated; we use humor to show our love. My family’s humor is very sarcastic and it definitely rubbed off on me. But I have middle child syndrome and the worst ADD you can possibly imagine. When I think I’ve toned something down, I’m still yelling and screaming and enthusiastically running around. I like to take that energy and really let my creativity loose. I find that I come up with more punchlines in the moment on stage.

MT:What was your most middle child syndrome slash ADD moment on stage?

CT: Once at a poetry open mic at Akamai Coffee I scared off an entire family doing my bit in the style of Def Jam poetry. My comedy style can be very uneven–I love to experiment telling the

same joke slow or fast quiet or loud.

I’m very short and look younger then I am. I like to have my routine split between adorable and friendly, keeping my comedy very conversational and being very loud and energetic. I certainly gravitate towards longform comedy telling stories–it’s all about timing and energy to keep the audience paying attention. My style is mostly just me talking (or yelling) about my life. I almost never do political commentary or talk about social issues. I like to talk about going to the beach with my grandma or my drunk roommate or how I’m too lazy to take out the garbage but will spend 20 minutes killing the flies circling it in my kitchen.

MT: How did Power Up Comedy start?

CT: Power Up Comedy was started by a few local comedians who wanted to do comedy with aloha. This is not New York City, not LA and we are anything but cutthroat. Power Up Comedy focuses on growing local comics, running a great open mic, doing feature shows at local establishments. We’re always looking for more venues and more recommendations. We perform all around island and bring in Mainland acts–really talented comedians who’ve been in the business a long time. One of my favorite comics, Sammy Obeid, comes out here a few times a year. He was on last season of NBC’s Last Comic Standing, and is a Guinness Book of World Record holder for one thousand nights of comedy in a row.

MT: What can folks expect when they go to an open mic?

CT: I frequently host open mic at Three’s Bar and Grill. Sign up is at 9pm, and the show runs from 9:30-11pm.

The host does about 10 minutes of opening material and keeps the energy going the rest of the night, often filling time in between comics. Sometimes open mic has 20 comedians signed up for five minute spots, but some nights we only have five that show up and we all–especially the host–get to do more time. I’ve seen a lot of comics come and go but Power up is lucky to have about five dedicated and talented comedians who show up for almost everything and have built up enough material to do paid shows and host. Almost all our shows we do are under the umbrella of “Power Up.” We produce and promote our own shows and almost all of which are free–it’s certainly a hobby that keeps me busy. ■ jen@mauitime.com + @jenrusso For more A&E stories, visit: mauitime.com/entertainment

Film

by Barry Wurst II

Haunted Dollhouse ‘Annabelle: Creation’ doesn’t make a lot of sense, but it’s really creepy ★★★★★

much scarier than this one. Taken as a stand-alone scare inducer, this is a skillful, truly chilling work.

Wilson, 11, starred in Ouija: Origin of Evil in a performance that thoroughly freaked me out. Here, she’s the protagonist and, once again, gives a strong, grounded turn. Bateman is equally good as the most sympathetic of the girls Annabelle haunts. But both LaPaglia and Otto, the biggest names in the cast, have seen better days than playing the walking plot devices they provide here.

I prefer the first Annabelle (2014), with its 1970s setting, Rosemary’s Babyinspired hook and inventive fiendishness.

Although its ending didn’t make a lick of sense, it was a mostly blood-free, scareheavy, suspenseful horror tale that was better produced and written than I expected.

Annabelle: Creation bludgeons the viewer with so many shocks it becomes numbing after a while. Also, the mad-slasher-in-thehouse finale is old hat and the identity of the killer is especially dubious.

Still, to give proper praise, this prequel has maybe twice as many scares and is relentless in its pursuit of movie theater screams.

Rated PG / 129 Min.

A

happy couple (played by Anthony LaPaglia and Miranda Otto) find their lives forever changed when their daughter, Annabelle, dies a horrible, violent death. Twelve years pass and the late Annabelle’s parents have converted their home into an orphanage. It houses a cluster of girls, including Linda, the youngest (played

by Lulu Wilson) and her best friend Janice (played by Tabitha Bateman), a polio survivor.

Turns out Annabelle’s parents have a few secrets they haven’t told their guests... like why a creepy doll bearing their dead daughter’s likeness keeps appearing around the house.

Although this doesn’t hit near-classic status like last year’s surprisingly excellent Ouija: Origin of Evil, it overcomes the low expectations and muted impact of junk like The Women in Black 2: Angel of Death. Here is a rare horror sequel/prequel (and spin-off of The Conjuring) that justifies its existence. There are references to the next big Conjuring spin-off, The Nun, which, if it’s even possible, looks

For a possessed demon doll, you sure drink a lot of tea

The best and worst thing about Annabelle: Creation is that it’s like being trapped in a haunted house. If that sounds like a fun night at the movies, then you’re clearly the audience for this. On the other hand, if being uncomfortable, watching a screen through quivering fingertips and jumping in your seat from visceral jolts sounds like torture, then I highly recommend seeing The Nut Job 2: Nutty By Nature.

Director David S. Sandberg previously made the petrifying Lights Out short film and last year’s pretty good feature length adaption. He’s a whiz with the little details that inflict serious eebie-jeebies, like photographs with glowing eyes, a chair that slowly lurches upstairs and a doll ever so slowly moving its head. Some of the most unsettling imagery is on loan from The Ring and

Pet Sematary, which is a good thing.

Lots of logic-grounded questions pop up, like wouldn’t a group of girls notice someone in a wheelchair being pushed by a ghost into a barn and, really, why does anyone stay at that house? To the film’s credit, it’s so busy startling us that I tended not to linger on the bits that didn’t make sense. The scene where Linda commits a remarkable, sensible act of bravery is just one example where Landberg’s fusing of performance, pacing and especially sound effects is top-notch. He’s not a Master of Horror yet but, if he keeps this up, he could be on his way.

As the audience shuffled out, I heard a tough-looking guy say this to his girlfriend (in censored form, of course): “That movie was motherf@#$%&* scary.” He was right. ■

Horoscope

Sign Language LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)

Although superficially Leos can often seem highmaintenance, fragile, and even prissy, you’re actually arguably the strongest sign in the zodiac. When push comes to shove, you know how to stand your ground, and nothing can really knock you down for long. Remember that, even if you’re feeling weak and vulnerable. Don’t believe the tabloid-esque hype that’s flying around about you. You’re better than that. You don’t have to prove it to anyone else. Screw them, if they’re stupid enough to believe that shit. Proving it yourself, however–that might be a worthwhile use of your time.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)

We humans are more instinctual creatures than you think. Most of us, many times a day, respond to various stimuli without really thinking about it. We often react unconsciously to people based on their appearance, scent, and so on, rather than their intentions or actions. Your problem is you expect everyone to be as rational as you are, and to not act like the animals we essentially are. Unfortunately, that’s simply not the case. Follow the lead of certain politicians this week–when reasoned arguments won’t get you what you want, play to their basest instincts instead.

er lying down in front of them. They’ll just run over you. Squish, squish. While I admire your fortitude and bravery, they won’t do you much good. What’s needed here is patience, wiliness and subterfuge, if you want your opposition to be even remotely effective.

I choose to believe there’s a way you can triumph against the people and ideas you object to, but you have to wait for the right moment, and do exactly the right thing–preferably something that doesn’t involve putting yourself directly in harm’s way.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20)

Resist the temptation to wallow. While staring at the wall and feeling very sorry for yourself is a wonderful way to spend the day, you lack the luxury of that kind of self-indulgent self-pity this week. Take five minutes right now to remember eleven brilliant things about your life, things you love. Even if they’re totally eclipsed by all the other shit you’ve got going on, focus on them anyway. If just coming up with eleven totally fantastic things to think about is a problem, you’ve really got to light a fire under your ass, because clearly you’ve been doing too much wallowing and not enough doing. Snap out of it. Time to get to work.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)

Some things simply can’t be easily undone. You can get an embarrassing tattoo removed, for instance, but the process is imperfect, painful, and expensive. Undoing a break-up can be all of those and more. Un-quitting a job is almost never possible. Of course it’s consequences like that which are often at the root of your indecisiveness, but not in the way you think. Because certain decisions are virtually irreversible, you start to dither over all decisions as if they were. This one, however, is not. Sure, there’ll be consequences either way, but nothing you can’t live with or work around. So get to it: make up your mind.

Naturally, you despise feeling helpless. There is a certain liberty in it, however. Being able to let go and feel truly free is actually an enormous gift, and when there’s nothing you can do anyway, that’s an enormous opportunity. Stop railing against the inevitable.

You’re just throwing away time and energy. What’s going to happen will happen regardless of what you do. Accept that, won’t you? It’ll be such a relief when you do, I promise. Besides, once you cease struggling against the things you have no power over, you’ll find you have tremendous energy for everything else.

VOTED BEST

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)

Do you believe in soulmates, Scorpio? Or are you already too cynical to embrace the concept? Is there really some special person out there with whom you’d be perfectly compatible, throughout your lives? Let’s assume it’s possible, for the sake of argument. What, then, are your chances of finding your “other half?”

And what about all those lovely people you’re 80-95 percent compatible with? Is it really worth rejecting them because they don’t quite live up to this ideal imaginary perfect partner (who may not even exist)?

Only you can answer those questions, and while you’re at it, ask yourself this: Ultimately, is your belief (or lack thereof) in a soulmate helping or hurting you?

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)

What you’re feeling must, this week, play second fiddle to what you’re doing. It doesn’t matter whether you’re euphoric or exhausted, angry or mournful, miserable or horny. Expressing yourself, in this case, is futile. You’ve just got to do what you’ve got to do, and your long-term situation has to take precedence over your short-term one. The bad news is you may have to ignore or set aside how you’re feeling, for the moment. The good news is that those feelings won’t last long, anyway, and once they’re gone, you’ll be immensely grateful (to yourself) that you didn’t make a huge stink about them.

Don’t destroy the things that are troubling you. They can’t be gotten rid of that easily, in any case. Rather than contemplating their destruction, consider their transformation. One man’s trash is another’s treasure, right? A problem for you might be a blessing for someone else. Transmute your troubles into treasures. Look for the people who’d eagerly and joyfully take them off your hands. They’re out there, believe it or not. You might be able to lovingly pawn off all your problems this way, but you should be able to ditch a few, making the ones you’re forced to hang on to that much easier to bear.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)

Give yourself a break. Get someone to put their arm around your shoulders, lend you a sympathetic ear, and then have yourself a good cry. After twenty minutes of sharing your misery with someone who’s willing to be there for you, you probably won’t have solutions to your problems, but I guarantee you’ll feel more able to tackle them, nevertheless. When was the last time you laid down your burdens? Too long ago, I’ll wager. This week, remove the world from your shoulders and set it down for a while. Ask someone to help you keep it from rolling away. Then relax as you haven’t for years. It’s overdue.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19)

The ever-changing big picture may be in remarkably clear focus for you, but some of your friends or colleagues might be surprisingly clueless. They’re apt to respond strongly to whatever sliver of the situation they’re privy to, with little awareness of how their actions might affect everyone else involved. Fill them in, or cut them off–whichever strategy will minimize the damage done by their blundering. It might seem harsh or condescending, but I promise–once they can see what you can see, they’ll be swooning with respect, admiration, and even gratitude to you, for keeping them in check.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18)

See those bulldozers rumbling towards your house and at least some of the things you love? Don’t both-

Usually, you feel safe and secure behind your crablike emotional shell, behind which almost no one ever gets to venture. Sometimes though, something happens to put a crack in it, and suddenly it’s like the curtains have been drawn back, and you’re standing there naked in fluorescent light, for all the world to see. But wait. Quit your frantic struggles to cover your bits. No one’s running away in horror. Hardly anyone’s laughing, either. Most people are looking at you with understanding and compassion. A few might even think you’re hot. Stop imagining negativity that isn’t there, and give yourself the acceptance, appreciation, and delight that others would give you, if you only gave them a chance.
