I'm sorry for your loss, can you please explain briefly from A to D ？ I saw on the news that cameras are going to be installed to enforce speeding, they are supposed to be activated when you go over 11 mph and take a picture.

Court （ If they say you don't have to go to court ） then
first you get a letter from the court and if you admit guilt, you pay this fine amount and that's it. You can pay it online
If you don't admit it, go to court and contest it
I think these are the two ways
Of course you will get points for the violation, same as in Japan, but there is a one-day course called traffic school, and if you take it and pass it, the points will disappear
If you admit the crime and pay the fine, you will get a letter from the court and pay this fine. When you pay the fine, do you want to take the traffic school ？ and if so, pay for it.　
If you don't take traffic school, the points will remain and your car insurance rate will go up
If you take traffic school, the points will disappear and your insurance rate will remain the same
There are two types of traffic school, online or by attending the nearest school from home
From my experience, it's easier to attend school

So,
file an objection
admit
take traffic school
don't take traffic school
I think there are 4 types

Another condo, "we don't renew because of the high number of insurance applications for the building", and I never applied for one, but they refused to renew.
In the end, the condo management company （ in my case, Hawaiiana ） referred me to the insurance company they use and I switched. The premiums were higher, but the communication was smooth.

The Ritz and Anaha are much more difficult to insure than other condos because there are quite a few insurance applications after construction due to water leaks and drains.
We are owners of Anaha, and we regret buying it because of all the problems with leaks and drains.
Similarly, Koura has been on the market for quite a while because of many problems such as cracks in the walls, drains, leaks, sewage odor, flies, etc. right after construction.
You should look at this property with caution when purchasing.

Dear Hmu and Insurance, Thank you for sharing your respective experiences. I have heard that insurance companies are having a hard time in Hawaii because of the many insurance applications being filed for typhoon damage, etc. The water leak damage at the Ritz is really bad. The real estate agent who recommended us to purchase the property is deeply sorry and is now looking for an insurance company. We are considering selling, but under the circumstances we would have to lower the price considerably to sell.

Are your car insurance company and your home insurance company not in a set ？ set, because they are less expensive

A friend of mine is in the insurance business. We were just talking about how it has been particularly noticeable lately that insurers are stopping providing insurance for entire condos. One of the reasons for this is that many of the newer condos seem to be using inexpensive, easy-to-use, non-metallic, plastic-like ？ bendable pipes, and these pipes are causing a lot of leaks, even in newer condos. It is quite common for condos with this type of pipe or entire buildings that have aged （ badly ） although I don't think the Ritz is on this list, to be considered accidental and withdrawn from providing insurance. The condo is on this blacklist, but you can ask your insurance broker to find out if the Ritz is. I do not know if it is possible for real estate agents to find out, but if you are planning to buy another place in the future, it may be safer to buy one that is older than the one currently under construction, in the sense that you can check the blacklist in advance. By the way, I was told that it is almost impossible to purchase insurance through several insurance companies that my acquaintance deals with for condos that have been blacklisted.

If you stay at an MGM Group hotel, you can come and go free of charge with your room key at any of the Group's hotels as long as you pay the parking fee at the hotel where you are staying.
It is free until midnight on the day you check out.
No matter where you eat, it is expensive.

Metro means all LA buses, trains going to Univa, Santa Monica, etc. in LA, to/from Union Station in downtown LA, OC, SD
All LA transportation is called Metro, so you can take a train bus from downtown LA If you are asking if you can go to Disneyland by train bus from Downtown LA, YES
Can you go by Metro, half YES, half NO because the city changes
If you search for train in Google Maps, you can find as many ways as you want to get there, Buses are faster and more common to Disneyland, about 2 hours, 2 buses will get you there
I did some research and found that there is a bus from the 7th metro station downtown to the Disneyland employee entrance ＄ 3 ． 50, that's just the metro cheap!

My second son, Punahou Kinder, didn't make it either ！
I was so shocked because my oldest son is now in 2nd grade at Punahou and I thought he would make it. I realized that I really lost my connection. My niece, whose parents are Punahou alumni, also didn't make it. ！
By the way, my second son and niece both had tutors and did their best, but I guess it means that more children can get in. Now I'm going to start again for the 4th grade entrance exam.

We were an alternate for Punahou and passed Iolani. Well, even if you look at the ratio, one out of three or four Iolani students will be accepted. Does it seem very unlikely that Punahou Kinder's alternates will turn up? With Iolani in the news because of the incident, the number of applicants in the 300's, the 4th graders being recruited, etc., etc., if both were accepted, I would choose Punahou.

Same here ！ We are also declining Iolani.
I heard that they are preliminarily accepting more than 100 students this year because last year there were more than 20 students who withdrew from Iolani.

Punahou had about 3 students last year.
It seems that alternates can retake 1,2,3 grade, but when I asked Admissions, it seems that there are quite often zero vacancies, and I wonder if anyone quits Punahou except for transfers or something.
I want to wait until the last minute to pray.

#1060 Roachiman,

I moved from NY to LA around 1971, so the hit song at that time was

Albert Hammond - It Never Rains in Southern California
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meDpNwem0Vo&list=RDmeDpNwem0Vo&start_radio=1

This was the song. I had heard about it, but the fact that it hardly rains means that I can ride my Motorcycle everyday. So I took a leap of faith, ate lunch at Famous Star and cheap today's specials at Norms Restaurant in the evening, saved up money throughout the year, and bought a new Storts Star that cost less than a Harley-Davidson Full Dress.

Have you ever had "homesickness （ homesickness ）" when you first arrived here from Japan?

I did. My first time in the U.S. was in the City of New York, where I stayed at the apartment of an older colleague who had come before me. Naturally, I could speak Japanese 24 hours a day, so I felt totally at ease, but I could not stay there for long, so I asked him to choose a suitable rental room from the Rent Room section in the Classified Section of the New York Times or some other local newspaper, and I called him and asked him to show me the room. I called him and asked him to show me the room at that location.

I don't understand the connection between rented rooms and homesickness. When you went to see the room, did you suffer from sick building syndrome and became homesick due to mental shock? Did you make the branch manager or senior staff responsible for causing the problem?

＞ I don't understand the connection between renting a room and homesickness

Sorry, I didn't explain myself well enough.

I started working as an expatriate in an office in New York City, my first foreign country, and I was living in the apartment of a senior Japanese expatriate. Therefore, there were Japanese people around me 24 hours a day, and of course we spoke in Japanese.

After that, I found an apartment for rent near Broadway/104th St. in Uptown New York and moved there. The landlord was a Latino-like grandmother, and of course I could only communicate in English.

On holidays, from my window, I can only see the windows of a similar old apartment building across the street that is 10 or more stories tall. I didn't have anything better to do on my day off, so I just sat around and didn't look at the windows of the apartment across the street, and I felt homesick, as if I had never felt like this in Japan.

I couldn't stay in my room and just sat around, so I went outside and walked east to the north end of the famous Central Park. I walked outside to the east and entered the north end of the famous Central Park. This area is the location of the famous movie/musical West Side Story (1961 film). My office staff told me to be careful because there are street gangs roaming around there, but I didn't get into any danger because I only explored that area in the middle of the day.

You can change your name to whatever you want at the Oath Ceremony when you get your citizenship.
I didn't know that, so I didn't think about it beforehand. ？ ？ When I was wondering what to do, I saw a sign that said "Juicy Burger" standing where they were selling hamburgers. I thought for a moment about changing my last name to "Juicyburger" as a joke, but in the end I didn't. It's easy to change it on the spot, but if you want to change it later, you have to apply for it at the court and get it approved, which is a hassle.

Thank you to those who replied. It seems that once I get my US citizenship, it will be relatively easy to change my name. One of the reasons I want to change my name is because I grew up a bit abused by my parents in Japan and I want to change my mood. My husband, who is American, likes my Japanese name and is not too supportive of changing it to an American-style English name, but he is a quiet person, so if I insist on changing it, I don't think he would object.

I think it has something to do with service, but the return system. Most stores in the U.S. allow smooth returns within about 30 days, even if the item is unboxed.
Shopping in Japan is time consuming because you have to look at the product carefully, touch it, and think about it because you cannot return it.

You are right.

Most of the products can be returned "after use" unless they are marked "non-returnable".

I have also returned a large box of reverse osmosis filtration equipment (Reverse Osmosis System), the largest of which would not fit in a passenger car.

However, there are long lines at the return counter at Costco and Walmart. If you are not good at it, you may have to wait in line for more than 30 minutes. But everyone is standing in line with a nonchalant look on their face. It's just like America.

Whether or not a Hybrid is a good buy depends on your lifestyle. I drive a Toyota SUV Hybrid.

My car is 15 years old, 160,000 miles and gets better gas mileage than the new 2025 Mazda CX-5 I recently bought for my daughter.
Hybrids need to be kept for 6 － 8 years or more to make money, taking into account the rising cost of gasoline. If you plan to drive it all the time, a hybrid is a good choice. If you plan to drive it all the time, a hybrid is the way to go.
