As to the subject.

The Governor of the State of Hawaii is concerned about the Japanese population, which is currently only 38% of the pre-pandemic level, and has made this statement, The state law also effectively excludes tourist buses, minibuses, and limousines from Waimanalo Beach ), which is a popular bridal destination, and also bans eastbound shoreline stops. I am amazed at how they can make such a bold statement. They are so self-serving that they say that Japanese people are spending more money than Americans from the mainland, and that we need them to come here.
I am in the tourism industry and I don't want the Japanese people to come back to Hawaii because they think they are just a money grab. The islands are great, but the politicians are the worst.

I live in Hawaii and am involved with the Hawaiian community. Considering the fact that the US is taking over this beautiful island from the natives, over tourists are polluting the environment, etc., I feel that I should be allowed to enjoy this beautiful island and spend my money in a respectful manner to the Hawaiians and be tolerant 😊.

The long winter rains have made road conditions worse than ever, please drive carefully.
Hawaii has potholes ( and holes ) all over the place and they don't seem to be able to fix them, why do you think ?
other states ( like California and Los Angeles ) don't have many holes. Hawaii is full of bumpy potholes, especially on kapiorani avenue.
This will break the suspension, what is the government thinking with this situation that has been neglected for years ?.

I need to inflate my car tires more often.

This still leaves several places in Kalakaua and Kapiolani that have been repaired from large holes. Is someone reporting this somewhere? It would be nice if the government would notice and act quickly.

I have heard from people who have lived in Hawaii for a long time that the land is weak
because there is a lot of reclaimed land in Hawaii.
Also, the material used for paving ! ? is different between
Kahala and other areas.
A person who used to work for the state also said so.

What I think of the Manoa family's impossible heartbreak.

On Sunday, there was a case of forced suicide of a family of five in Manoa, where a husband took his own life after murdering his Japanese wife and stabbing their three children.

The husband, a chiropractor, was $90,000 in debt and had not paid his taxes.

In Hawaii, it is common to see groups of Japanese wives, and luxury people are often clustered in such groups, and even among them, there are often Japanese who are vain and show off their sparkling family life inside and outside the home ( In Instagram )
If you have a lot of assets, you can play the role of a "real" person as much as you want, but if you associate with such a person, it is inevitable that you will have a financial ruin soon. I don't think he likes luxury.
His daughter is also a student at Iolani School, and she was going to go to college in the Mainland in the spring, so he would have had to spend a lot of money. If so, why couldn't she have gone to a public school? ? I also don't understand why she would send her daughter to Iolani, which is very expensive and she has a lot of debt.

No one really knows
"Even if she was a vain and spendthrift wife,"
and
"it's not impossible that she had a mental illness because of the way she treated her vain wife and children,"
and
"I can't help thinking that if she had lived up to her financial resources
and
"Why didn't they live up to their income?"
and 、、、、

How can you judge us as if you knew everything about our family? ?

It looks like you are pretending to have sympathy for them ?
You need to be more thoughtful since someone has died ?.

This is very painful news. I don't know the circumstances of your family, but I myself have not lived here that long, so I tend to think in terms of "if it were in Japan," and I was surprised at the difference between Japan and here in many ways.

The news reports that in Hawaii, this is the second most shocking incident in terms of fatalities after the 1999 Xerox shootings, but in Japan, family suicide is not so rare, so ( one family ) is considered to be ( a family suicide, whereas ) one family in a public place is called a family suicide. I was surprised to see the news report citing a public shooting in a public place.
I did some research and found that, unlike in Japan, it is rare for a family to be involved in a suicide in the US. I wonder if the husband of the deceased Japanese-American knew that family suicide is reasonably common in Japan. I was also surprised that the news article even included the address of the house where the incident took place, and that the surrounding houses were also shown in the video without mosaic.
In Japan, addresses would never be published on the news, and there would be a mosaic.

#11 Alright Mr.

I don't want this tragedy to happen again because it's too sad

Everyone please be careful. And I think everyone is seriously messaging here. If you had the happiest family, this tragedy would not have happened.

Maybe we will be next.

If someone thinks that we might be next, it will help this forum if it leads to immediate action such as separation or divorce.

Please take it more seriously and seriously.

This is not a random rumor at all ! ! This is a message of prevention to save lives.

This incident should be an opportunity for you to learn to spend more time with your children, more time talking to each other

and more.

It has been a long time ago, but myself and my daughter have been under the care of her husband's treatment, and his wife was working at the reception desk with their son, who was still small, as I recall. We are just shocked at this tragedy. I remember that the wife was a cheerful person and the doctor was very kind in the way he performed the procedure and spoke to her.
I don't want to tell you more than that from my imagination. Of course she was not in a normal state of mind, but I just feel so sorry for the three children who were taken away from her. As someone who knew him more or less before his death, I pray for the souls of all the family members who lost their lives.

The atmosphere and curriculum of the school is completely different and I am wondering if I will be able to adjust quickly.
If any of you have had the same experience with your children, I would appreciate it if you would share.

Hello. I have no experience with in-person gyms here, but you may want to consider an online gym ?
I joined a personal trainer-guided online gym about 6 months ago for weight loss purposes.
Instead of going to the gym, I train at home with my own body weight and diet.
After much online research and comparison, I signed up with a Japanese online gym, but there were many more online gyms in the U.S. itself.

In my various searches, I found quite a few online gyms that offered not only training at home, but also going to the gym and providing personal training using machines in real time from the gym via smartphone or tablet, and also offered a personal training program that would be suitable for me if I answered multiple questions There were also online gyms where you could answer multiple questions and they would recommend a trainer ( and of course you could select your gender ) as well.
Since you said you would like a personal trainer for a couple of sessions, you might want to look for a plan that allows you to sign up for a short term contract.

Since no one has responded, here is our family's case.

A cat clinic in Kapahulu has a hotel there
I used to leave my cat there every time I traveled. Google .purradise cat care.

But my cat was so nervous and timid that for the first few days she was
too scared of other cats walking outside her cage …
to eat or go to the bathroom .
I have been having a sitter come to my house on a walk-in basis.
I think the above clinic is perfectly fine if the girl is calm and has a good heart.

I have also left my dog at Pounce Hawaii in Kakaako a few times.
The price is a little higher, but this is a private room and there is no contact with other cats.
If you want to leave even a timid cat, this might be a better choice.
However, for some reason, my cat came back with a bad body odor, and I couldn't get rid of it for a few days
I haven't left her there since then … I wonder what it was … There was no problem with her physical condition.

I always left them at pounce. I got them from there. I always leave them at pounce, but it's expensive. But it's expensive. I was looking for a better place. Thanks for the info.

Parents of local high school students, do you have a curfew?
I am a parent of a senior citizen child, and since he started driving, if I leave him alone, he doesn't come home until after midnight. Is it too strict for parents to set a curfew for their high school children in the U.S.?

We graduated from high school last year and
unless we had something special to do, we had a curfew of
9:00 on Sunday ~ Thursday and 11:00 on Friday and Saturday.

And if we were running late, we didn't drive, we either dropped him off or had him take an Uber.
My son's friends had a similar curfew.

#2 Dear Sean0914

Your son and his friend both had curfews when they were in high school. My son always came home for dinner even after he started driving, so we didn't have a curfew, but when he got a girlfriend, his attitude suddenly changed and he never came home, so I talked to my husband and decided to set a curfew. He said there are no other kids around him who have a curfew, and he is not happy that he is the only one who has to come home when the time comes. I wondered if the curfew was too strict for an American high school student, as my son said, but it is too late to wait until something happens, so I think I will stick to my policy of "one home is home, another is away. Thank you for your answer.

If you have a HOLO card,
it is convenient to register it in Japanese as well.

You can see the history of your card and cancel it immediately if you lose it.
You can also see the time of your first ride, so you can check what time you got on.

Holo Card debits

3 in the first 2.5 hours, then $ 3 again after 2.5 hours, then $ 3 after 2.5 hours, then $ 1.50 for a 1 Day Pass.

1 Day $ No more than 7.50 will be debited, and no more than $ 80 will be debited for the same amount as the monthly pass.

No further debits once the annual $ 880 ( 11th month ) is reached.

Instead of buying monthly, you can deposit $ 80 at Main and it will be automatically debited, and once you reach $ 7.50 on the 1st, no further debits will be made. Once you reach $ 80, you will have unlimited rides from then on, and on the 11th month you will reach $ 880, so you will have unlimited rides for the 12th month. I myself have been reaching $ 80 every month since last October, so I will reach $ 880 in September of this year. Then I will have unlimited rides in October.

Local School ・ Curfew for High School Students

Problem / Need advice

I am the mother of a local high school senior.
Since she has been with me, she comes home late every night and sometimes doesn't come home until dawn. When I set a curfew (9:00 on weekdays and 11:00 on weekends), she complains that we are the only American high school students who have a curfew. ?

Also, since he has a girlfriend, his grades have dropped drastically and he has been late for class more often, but he says that he is fine because he has already decided on a university and his tardiness and grades will not be reflected in his future schooling.
