I went yesterday.
You are given a timed ticket to buy the day of the show, but you have to be
there to get it.
If you are coming with your family, you will be told at the gate to drive in together, and the number of people will be checked when the tickets
are handed out.
After the gates open, you park and then get in line.
We took an Uber, got dropped off at the gate, and got out
just as the gates opened. It was the fastest way.

Have you discussed with Uber regarding insurance, etc. ？ The Uber website below states that when you are working for Uber, the insurance provided by Uber will cover accidents.
https://www.uber.com/us/en/drive/insurance/
I would suggest that you first refer to the article on the above site and ask Uber to clarify the details when you sign the contract with them.

Note that regular insurance won't cover you if you get into an accident while working for Uber.

We have the same thing, small ants.
The most effective way is to

If you have a terror, you can probably get rid of them by putting them there.

They get into food or fall into pots and pans while cooking, which is a problem.
If you don't find the nests and get rid of them, there will be any number of them.
The only way is to ask a contractor.

You should move out if you can.

I found a lot of information by looking up the keywords f-1 visa student youtube income or f-1 visa student remote work income at foreign contoury,
the answer is generally no.

I checked previously for H-4 visas, which are basically not allowed to work, and it seems that even if income from online work, etc. comes into a Japanese account, it is still treated as work in the US for the period you are physically present in the US.
I'm not convinced, though, because it would be a departure from the basic premise of not depriving Americans of employment opportunities.

I think
you first need to understand the point regarding F-1Student VISA employment （ work for income ）.

Below is the explanation of the rule. I have also attached a translation.

F-1 Employment Options (On Campus, CPT, OPT)
Students on F-1 visas must understand the rules of their visa status before engaging in employment or work opportunities in the U.S. Students on F-1 visas must understand the rules of their visa status before engaging in employment or work opportunities in the U.S.

Employment is defined as "work performed in exchange for Compensation can include money, room and board,
or other significant benefits.
Working without authorization has serious consequences and can impact your ability to study, travel, or work in the U.S. throughout your life.

｛ F-1 Employment Options (On-Campus, CPT, OPT)
Students with F-1 visas should understand the rules of their visa status before engaging in employment or work opportunities in the United States. They are required to do so.

Employment is defined as "work performed in exchange for remuneration. Compensation may include money, room and board, or other significant perks.
Most employment opportunities require a permit. Working without a permit has serious consequences and can affect your ability to study, travel, or work in the United States throughout your life. ）

Without reading the explanation, it is common sense to understand that you cannot work
without permission at a so-called income-earning job on a student visa.

It is in your question.

｛ I recently heard that it is not illegal to work in the US if you are a customer living in Japan
and your salary is paid to a Japanese account, which is correct ？? ｝

When you earn income, you are required to pay income tax.
Whether you are doing this in Japan or doing business from the US, you will have to pay
"income tax" when income is generated.
You will have to pay "income tax".
If you are on an F visa, you do not have Social Security to work in the U.S.
so you cannot pay income tax
in the form of a tax return.

In addition, there are two legal issues that arise
when you perform goods or services from the U.S. and deposit the payment
into your Japanese account.

1. ） If the payment is made to an account in Japan, the income is earned in Japan, so
you must file a Japanese income tax return as a resident of Japan.
Since a person in the U.S. will be working in Japan and reporting income in Japan,
I don't think it is physically possible.
For example, an American （ who does not live in Japan ） would ship goods from the US and
receive payment for them in a Japanese bank account.
Since he is an American, he cannot declare his income in Japan, which is a violation of the Income Tax Law.

2 ） In the case of goods or services from the U.S., it is against the law to pay for goods to a country other than the country from which the goods were shipped because of the
balance of payments relationship between the U.S. and Japan.
In other words, both Japan and the U.S. are required to make payment to the country to which the goods were sent.

If you send $100 worth of goods or services from the U.S.,
you must pay the U.S. $100 or your balance of payments will not be met.
In the case of business between foreign countries, not only the payment between individuals, but also the
balance of payments between the two countries must match.


To make a long story short, it is illegal to receive payment for services or goods from the U.S. to an account in Japan
and not only for F visas but also for U.S. citizens
. This kind of activity is illegal （ and is being enforced
between the U.S. and Japan as money laundering and illegal ）.

According to the HMSA link below, the company's share is 50% or more.
Except for certain union agreements, the law requires employers to contribute at least half of the premium cost for single coverage.

The next sentence states that the employee must contribute the remaining amount, not to exceed 1.5% of salary.
The employee must contribute the rest as long as their share is not more than 1.5% of their wages.

Maybe the 50% premium amount is greater than 1.5% of pon's salary. I think that would mean that you are currently paying too much.

Sorry, correction. fee may have cost me when I bought it, but
I don't remember. I think you can probably specify the amount if you buy it at the store.
If you make an account online, you can check the balance on your card
I think that would be more convenient!

Fee has had to be paid since March of this year, I believe. I think the reason was because it was easy to lose it and then people would make it again.
You can also make them at Food Land customer service. The charge is as Halo explained.

rak, that's right. Then it's OK that it didn't cost me when I bought it, as I remember. You were lucky when I bought it. I would have been in trouble if I lost my card every time I bought it, since it is a solid card.

I'm sure different insurance companies have different conditions （ such as additional locomotive insurance fees, US license holders only, etc ） but you could ask your friend if you can add their name to your policy ？ It's a lot of work and expense, but it's peace of mind just in case it's only for one day.

Excuse me for entering sideways.
I live in the same area as Koji.
Smart TV.

You can watch
KIKU without paying Spectrum for TV ？ ！
I only pay Spectrum for modem and wifi every month.

Is the indoor antenna ok for a condo ？

I would be very happy if you could tell me what brand and where you bought it.
Please let me know.

I enjoy Japanese movies and dramas on Amazon Prime.
There is not a wide variety, but there are Amazon originals
so it is fresh. I also enjoy original American movies.
I get an extra 10% off sale items at Whole Foods, and
Prime offers free shipping for online shopping, so
I pay my annual membership fee once a year.
It is more economical than paying monthly membership fees.
I hope this helps.

Maki, miki,

KIKU's transmitting base station is on the west side of the island, on top of the mountain in Kapolei.
So near the town, the receiving antenna is basically facing west.

My antenna is about 10 years old and made by Amazon.
The point is that it is a USB powered type to enhance the signal.
This increases the possibility of picking up a weak signal.
https://www.amazon.com/Chaowei-Antenna-Amplified-Digital-Antenna-Booster/dp/B0BBF7JGRY/ref=psdc_3230976011_t2_B08CWZ273C


I live on the third floor of an apartment building with a window facing west and no tall buildings in the direction of the antenna.


One idea is to try various indoor spots with a low-cost indoor antenna （ $ 20 ） like the above.

My indoor antenna is not designed to be turned on, so I thought it was weak to get signals from outside, but
I just changed the position of the antenna to right next to the window and scanned the channels again, and now I have more channels and can watch NHK news NHK news is available.
A little progress and a little hope. Thank you very much.

Thank you very much for the guidance ！

It would be a great deal if I could watch Amazon's $20 antenna all the time.

I regret the past of paying monthly for Spectrum.
