Liv Intl and Liv Green Hawaii Announce Detox Hawaii Now

Monday, 11/21/2011

It is our mission to detox the US, one family at a time.  Hawaii is one of the

10 ‘cities’ involved in this ambitious and inspired project.  Other include the

Phoenix area, Salt Lake City, and Las Vegas to start.

The Detoxing of the body means to get a person’s body to an alkaline state,

rather than acidic.  Most are aware of the positive value associated with be

coming alkaline.  Some experience weight loss and we have products that

focus on that.  Others want improved circulation with an L-arginine product

which we have.  Then, a great fiber product (Crave) and a Kidney Cleanse add

to the package.  Two unique sprays utilize top quality natuaral ingredients to

help people that want to fight their addictions-and win.  SereZen helps balance

the Serotonin levels in the brain and improve moods.  Sxinney Mist makes the

sugary and salty foods that many crave-taste terrible.  It allows us to ‘cut off’

our hunger craving.  They also help freshen the breath. 

Last, but certainly not least is Blox, which has mushrooms amd other ingred-

ients that act as an immunity booster.  ‘Homeland Security’ in a Bottle.

 

So far, I can attest to the quality og Go-Nitrimax, the L-arginine product.

The increased circulation acts like Viagra for me and my wife.  It helps me

prepare for and recover from workouts.  I have lost about 9 pounds so far

with the above products.  My wife, Dr. Malia and I use most of the products,

and have not been sick since we discovered them.  WE HAVE detoxed and

that is what we want to share with others.

Stay tuned for the other ways Liv International products can help you detox.

Response to Moonlighting Article in Mid Week

Jade Moon, Moonlighting Column in Mid Week Paper on Oahu

I like your call to have Rail Supporters speak up. Let me help you.
There is nothing for them to say other than “Build it already.”

Everyone thinks that it will get riders,   just not them.  No one will
ride it enough to make it worth the disastrous financial conse-
quences it will cause to us, our children, and our children’s chil-
dren.

There is only HOPE that it will ease traffic.  A noted expert, Walter
(I believe) Yoshioka said that it will not, EVER.

There is the HOPE of thousands of jobs.  The article by the oppos-
itiion, or as Howard Dicus likes to call us, the ‘Asphalt Huggers’
said that there would be 633 jobs added, MAYBE 933.  That is
not thousands using my old HS Math.  I already know of mainland
people that have moved her for the Rail jobs.  They have opened
accounts at the Bank of Hawaii in Moili’ili.  Now rather than angrily
repeat old employment estimates, why not accurately break them
down for us Mayor Carlisle.  I know you inherited the bully techn-
iques from Mufi, but there are a ton of smart people and I believe they
are now waking up to what is real here.

Which brings me to one of the big concerns which is rarely debated.
Why??????
1.  Do we owe the world the opportunity to move to our, gorgeous,
paradise island chain here in the middle of the Pacific.  Do we just
roll over and say, yep c’mon in, we’ll pave over some more Ag land
and build some more schools for you, and hey, can you just SAY
you will take that darn Rail.
2.  Do we feel the need to relocate thousands or people and then tons
of businesses to EVENTUALLY have enough population near the
Rail lines to make it viable.
3.  Why do we OWE the construction workers the right to do construc-
tion jobs here on Oahu.  If there is no work, there is NO WORK.  Move
to Las Vegas and pour concrete and build stuff for the next 80 years,
already.  Or hey I have an idea.  Learn a new trade.  Are we that weak
and the unions that strong?
4.  WHY don’t we get to the bottom of the Rail Debacle anyway?  Many if
not ALL supporters are/were big contributors of CASH to Mufi and then
Carlisle.  I would love to live in a state that I did not feel was that corrupt,
but the proof is in the pudding.
5.  Why don’t you think about the reality of riding the Rail for yourself.
Remember take extra time to get up early to get to the station to park,
(if there is one for you.)  You may need change to pay for the parking.
There may be no spots, oh well, drive.  Allow for the extra time that you
will need at the other end.  Keep in mind you may need an umbrella
too.  You will be standing most of the way, no relaxing.  Enjoy the view,
knowing that thousands of businesses, and homes and people will have
lost their view to sacrifice for this monstrosity.)  There is no money to
pay for maintenance, how safe does it feel the 2nd year, the 3rd, and so
on.  There is no money for security at the parking lot (if there was one) so
HOPE your vehicle is safe there

By the way, make sure those that say they support it would actually ride
it OFTEN.  (I know of no one who will.)  And, be wary of those who are
supporting just because they have a connection to the trades that THINK
they will benefit, or may actually benefit.

Just Google ‘Rail Pushers Oahu’ or ‘Oahu Rail Pushers’ to see more.

PS I am not against Rail due to ’special interests.” I am not a father of kids
or therefore grandkids that will be negatively disadvantaged due to this.  My
wife and I are not poor, so we will have the option to move to Big Island, or
Maui, or wherever when things get bad here.  And lastly we chose to live
in a part of town that costs more knowing that we do not have to be int that
drive.  Our choice.  That’s why we pay more.  Our townhouse would be
cheaper (though not as nice) in Kapolei, but that is the choice we made.

Two Issues: Finances & Health

That’s about it.  When my wife, Dr. Malia and I talk to people about their lives, two things keep popping up.  Now, she’s the Dr. and obviously her focus is usually nutrition, body structure, injury issues, weight and emotional concerns.  As Health & Wellness coaches, we both are interested in others’ issues.

You know how many if not most people are concerned about their health?  It’s true.  Whether they realize their diet is junk, or junk food.  Or they absolutely see that their weight has to change.  (Usually downward.)  Maybe it’s Diabetes, or the need to be more regular, or needing more energy, or wanting better moods and relief from depression.  Maybe they work out and want to recover quicker.

We can help.

A lot of people are truly behind the 8 Ball financially.  Backed into a corner, struggling.  They fall into two categories and often want to find another job.  OR, they have heard about, or experienced others that have their own businesses and want to do that.  It has been said that an extra 400 a month would help avoid most bankruptcies, car-repos and even some divorces.  OK, I added the last one, but it makes sense, doesn’t it?

We can help.

Today’s Honolulu Star-Advertiser: ‘Bankruptcies fall, but businesses, individuals still struggle’  I can relate, and that is exactly what Malia and I hear.  WE want to hear from you.  Not just listen for  a minute and then try to fix.  Perhaps it would not be a good fit anyway.  But, as connectors/networkers/coaches/listeners/Christians/friends/fun people we would actually pay attention.

We are going on a fantastic inspired journey.  Perhaps you or someone you know wants to go too.

Rick Emmerich     rickemmerich@gmail.com

(Now, I wish this would go without saying, but I am not recruitable for your deal.  I do NOT need SEO, I am quite well off in that dept.  I am not a good candidate for your juice, or gadget, or get rich quick scheme, I DON’T BELIEVE IN ANY OF THOSE.  I welcome correspondence, but hate spam and those that want to pitch me on some deal without knowing who I am.  I’d rather you did not send me a broadcast call, because I am tired of playing that game where I set my phone down and you are billed for the time that I allow it to play.  You then may even waste your time calling me back several times.  That game has lost its thrill.)

After all that, I guarantee some will do those things, but it is well worth it, if someone else that wants to share and have a listener, actually gets through this disclaimer and is not afraid to respond.  And yes, even ONE person makes it all worth it.

Aloha, all the best to you.

Intelligent Oahuans, please speak out against Rail

WITH RAIL, the facts keep changing and the hidden truths eventually come out…………Rick Emmerich
There is NO guarantee that the Federal Government will come through with the funding that many on Oahu have been led to think that they are going to push through.  Even in the best of times, whatever that means, there would not be a guarantee.
But guess what, these are not the best of times.  Every legislator out there would want to be the person that finds 1.5 Billion to cut to save the US money.  Especially those crazy Tea Partiers or Republicans.  Wait, THEY wouldn’t do something to upset the Dems in this annoyingly Dem state.  OR would they?
Senator Inouye was in town and talking to, or as the newsman said, “lecturing” the Rail Board.  I assume the Board just sat back in awe of the dude, who is imposing, even in his advanced age.  Now I mean no disrespect, really (I want to be hangin’ around at that age too),  BUT he clearly did NOT say that the Feds are definitely going to come through with the funds.  What he said was “I believe he (Peter Roga of the FTA) is our friend.”
OK, just in case I am the only one NOT in awe of this guy…..I was paying attention.  The words Inouye said were NOT comforting for people that have been sold the bill of goods that the Rail was going to be built, largely using Federal Funds.  I mean, this thing has been rolling along as if the money was already in one of Oahu’s Banks, just waiting for the builders to finish up.
I think Inouye, who’s ‘in on this” has lied to us in the past, almost guaranteeing the money.  He clearly did NOT say that tonight, and I think he changed his tune.  He continued the Rail Pusher’s Propaganda with the “it will save traffic” statement as well.
Let’s WAKE UP and stop this MADNESS.  This project will Bankrupt Oahu.  It will lower the quality of life for thousands on Oahu in a lot of ways.  It won’t do what we have been led to believe, such as cut down commute times or eliminate traffic.
There is NO WAY the project will get done in a timely manner, big projects just don’t in Hawaii.  It is more likely that I build a snowman on Bethel Street tomorrow than this project comes in any where near the budget.
There is nothing allotted for the maintenance (if it ever gets done.)  Neighborhoods will be destroyed, and homes and businesses will be torn down to make this happen.  AND, now that the old guy has weighed in….
WE AREN’T GOING TO GET THE MONEY WE THOUGHT WE WERE PROMISED.
In the Bible we are the Foolish Builder.

Liv Green Hawaii, an inspired partnership

“We are at that very point in time when a 400-year-old age is dying and another is struggling to be born-a shifting of culture, science, society, and institutions enormously greater than the world has ever experienced. Ahead is the possibility of the regeneration of individuality, liberty, community, and ethics such as the world has never known, and a harmony with nature, with one another, and with the divine intelligence such as the world has never dreamed.” Dee Hock, Founder of Visa

I believe this and partner with a company that is implementing a new inspired model. I can also help you excel in your present business, whatever it is. Let’s talk- the worst that can happen is that we each can find out more about each other. Rick Emmerich

Carmegeddon? how bout Work-at-home-Ageddon?

Shutting down the 405 in LA could have its benefits.  Our traffic is bad here coming into Honolulu from the West Monday through Friday and the people are so despeate that they are allowing an incredibly overpriced and terrbily planned Rail System to be rammed down their throats.  But that is not what this blog is about.

How about telecommuting?  I can do it at my job, even though my company has its doubts about its effectiveness.  That makes it my challenge to show that it works.

OR, how about a home based business?  I heard a study showed that 85% of thgose surveyed would liek their own business.  I am not assuming that the study meant MLM, direct sales in particular but there are great benefits to either. 

My goal is to have 5 streams of income from my home.  2 are up and running, the 3rd is in the process, the 4th I start today and the 5th has been planned for about 4 months and I expect to roll it out within a week.

Now, this is not a sales pitch for you to do any of the things I am doing.  I would welcome you into either of 2 of them, and you would have to contact me to hear more.  My website idea, though I have told many (TOO many?) is my deal and I am not looking for any more competition there.  The point is, THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX.

Those of us that have been taught “Get a good job and stay there a long time.  You don’t have to like it and it will not only pay all your bills, but they will take care of you when you retire.”  We need to talk.

These days Robert Kiyosaki, Donald Trump and Warren Buffett (not Jimmy) are saying that MLM/home based businesses are the wave of the future-now.  Regular jobs are old-school.  College Grads are getting out (sometimes with massive student debt) and finding that jobs are scarce, or worse yet, their majors are almost becoming obsolete.

It’s almost not SHOULD I GET A HOME-BASED BUSINESS, but WHICH ONE?

Benefits include, NO commute, work as hard or as little as you want.  Guess which one pays better…Also, no inventory (usually), no shipping, or at least very little.  And, you get paid on work you do today, for months, even years to come.  That is residual.  Time leveaging can also result when you spend time with one person who then reaches out to another and another and another.  Yes it can multiply and fast if you are in the right conditions.  

For those who read this that think I am gong to pitch my company, I am not right now.  You can find out what I am doin easy enough.  I do, however have some tools to help with your business, whatever it is.  You can check with me on that too.  I expect to see great Google results from what I am doing, to give a hint.

Aloha, and don’t read this while commuting!  Rick Emmerich

Who’s the Biggest Drug Pusher?

Y’all know that the big Pharma Cartels get away with murder.  Actually 200 BILLION Dollars worth of prescriptions were sold in a recent year.  2005, I believe.  There is a breakdown as to what types of meds and I will leave that for another blog.  I spent 15 dollars this year so far, and that is far below the average per citizen of 833.33 dollars (per year.) 

As I speak there is a commercial for Lipozene.  Meanwhile Dr. Malia and I know that there are better products out there because we have been working with them.  However they are not advertised on TV due to the massive cost undertaking such a campaign.  MLM allows regular people like you and I to share the passion we all have for these cutting edge products.

Now, to get this out of the way, I am NOT a Dr. but I sleep with one (every night.)  She does know about nutrition, as well as the whole body.  The focus of a Holistic Chirpractor is to get to the root cause of issues, to get the body to a place where it can heal itself.

Medical Drs, or Internal Medicine Specialists prescribe drugs to treat symptoms.  They don’t get paid to find root causes most of the time.  In fact the Pharma Cartels have elaborate systems so they can distribute drugs to doctors who will gladly prescribe them after they have given out samples.

My good friend, who used to work in a group home where different types of medically challenged residents lived, shared this.  “The reps would come in with doughnuts and drug samples.  It was commonplace, once a month.” 

It’s been many years and the Pharma Cartels are lovin’ their status in the United States.

But guess what?  Even though they seem to be winning the war for the lives of the citizens, alternatives have been here and been here for longer.  Despite the Cartels’ efforts to make natural and alternative methods illegal, there are a whole lot of us.  We know that nutrition, exercise, drinking Green (to alkalyze the body), keeping weight under conrol, eliminating the bad stuff, see below, and many other practises keep the MDs away.

Now, the list of ‘bad stuff’ should include:

Tobacco/Cigarettes, White Flour, White Salt, White Sugar, deep fried foods, dairy, canned foods (high in salt), SODA, too much alcohol, or caffeine.  Ice Cream, meats with their Nitrates and Nitrites.  And no matter what you eat, it’s bad to eat too quickly and for those (of us) who have a problem stopping what we are eating when we are full.

By the way, I didn’t say I was perfect, did I?  Certainly, I am working on my food issues. 

I want to give a general idea that there are a lot of alternatives out there and consulting a holistic chirpractic and partnering with companies that have a variety of healthy products can gto a long way to improve your health.  go to http://www.honoluluchiropractor.net   and go ahead set up an appointment.  If you are on Oahu, it’s a short drive for you.  If you want a referral for a holistic chiropractor in your area just contact Dr. Malia through here website.

I suggest get fit, lose weight, be more active, and AVOID the prescriptions.  I HAVE lost 5 lbs. so far.

If you would like to have a weight loss program that is clinically tested and has great ideas about exercise and lifestyle besides the product, go to http://livonline.net/rickemmerich.com  If the fitness side of things is more important, Liv International has that too.  Same site.  or call me 808 371-6501

Obama’s college roomie says what?

People, it is happening.

Obama’s roommate speaks out. dh 02-16-11

FOR HIM AND HOPE

This needs to be emailed to everyone in the USA.

OBAMA’S COLLEGE ROOMMATE SPEAKS OUT
By Wayne Allyn Root , June 6th, 2010

Barack Hussien Obama is no fool. He is not incompetent.

To the contrary, he is brilliant. He knows exactly what he’s doing.

He is purposely overwhelming the U.S. economy to create systemic failure,
economic crisis and social chaos — thereby destroying capitalism and
our country from within.

Barack Hussien Obama was my college classmate

(Columbia University, class of ‘83).

He is a devout Muslim do not be fooled.

Look at his Czars…anti-business..anti- american.
As Glenn Beck correctly predicted from day one, Barack Hussien Obama is
following the plan of Cloward & Piven, two professors at Columbia University .
They outlined a plan to socialize America by overwhelming the system
with government spending and entitlement demands.

Add up the clues below. Taken individually they’re alarming.

Taken as a whole, it is a brilliant, Machiavellian game plan to turn

the United States into a socialist/Marxist state with a permanent majority

that desperately needs government for survival … and can be counted

on to always vote for bigger government.

Why not? They have no responsibility to pay for it.

Universal health care . The health care bill had very little to do with health

care. It had everything to do with unionizing millions of hospital and

health care workers, as well as adding 15,000 to 20,000 new IRS agents (who will join government employee unions).

Obama doesn’t care that giving free health care to 30 million Americans

will add trillions to the national debt.

What he does care about is that it cements the dependence of those 30 million voters to Democrats and big government .
Who but a socialist revolutionary would pass this reckless spending bill

in the middle of a depression?

Cap and trade. Like health care legislation having nothing to do with
health care, cap and trade has nothing to do with global warming.

It has everything to do with redistribution of income, government control
of the economy and a criminal payoff to Obama’s biggest contributors.
Those powerful and wealthy unions and contributors (like GE, which owns
NBC, MSNBC and CNBC) can then be counted on to support everything Obama wants.

They will kick-back hundreds of millions of dollars in contributions to

Obama and the Democratic Party to keep them in power.
The bonus is that all the new taxes on Americans with bigger cars,
bigger homes and businesses helps Obama “spread the wealth around.”

Make Puerto Rico a state. Why? Who’s asking for a 51st state?
Who’s asking for millions of new welfare recipients and government
entitlement addicts in the middle of a depression?

Certainly not American taxpayers.
But this has been Barack Hussien Obama’s plan all along.

His goal is to add two new Democrat senators, five Democrat congressman and a million loyal Democratic voters who are dependent on big government.

Legalize 12 million illegal Mexican immigrants.

Just giving these 12 million potential new citizens free health care alone could overwhelm the system and bankrupt America.
But it adds 12 million reliable new Democrat voters who can be counted
on to support big government.
Add another few trillion dollars in welfare, aid to dependent children,
food stamps, free medical, education, tax credits for the poor, and
eventually Social Security .

Stimulus and bailouts. Where did all that money go?

It went to Democrat contributors, organizations (ACORN), and unions — including billions of dollars to save or create jobs of government employees across the country.

It went to save GM and Chrysler so that their employees could
keep paying union dues.

It went to AIG so that Goldman Sachs could be bailed out

(after giving Obama almost $1 million in contributions).

A staggering $125 billion went to teachers (thereby protecting their union dues).

All those public employees will vote loyally Democrat to protect their
bloated salaries and pensions that are bankrupting America.

The country goes broke, future generations face a bleak future, but Obama, the Democrat Party, government, and the unions grow more powerful.

The ends justify the means.

Raise taxes on small business owners, high-income earners, and job
creators. Put the entire burden on only the top 20 percent of taxpayers,

redistribute the income, punish success, and reward those who did

nothing to deserve it (except vote for Obama).

Reagan wanted to dramatically cut taxes in order to starve the government. Barack Obama wants to dramatically raise taxes to starve his political opposition. With the acts outlined above, Barack Hussien Obama and his regime have created a vast and rapidly expanding constituency of voters dependent on big government; a vast privileged class of public employees who work for big government; and a government dedicated to destroying capitalism and installing themselves as socialist rulers by overwhelming the
system.

Add it up and you’ve got the perfect Marxist scheme — all devised by
my Columbia University college classmate Barack Hussien Obama

using the Cloward and Piven Plan .

True per snopes!
http://www.snopes.com/politics/soapbox/overwhelm.asp

Just passing this on, I have seen some of it before, but
I feel this sort of info needs to see the light of day.

Rail Sucks!

This is a conversation from just a while ago on FaceBook. Panos Prevedouros, a highly educated gentleman and former mayoral candidate here on Oahu was verbally abused in the election and made a strong Anti Rail case, as he continues to today. We hope to help educate many who blindly have gone along with the propaganda machine known as the Rail Pushers.

Rail sucks? Depends on your point of view, but it sure sucks our tax money: Federal subsidies for Amtrak are 500 times greater than federal subsidies to intercity buses. Federal subsidies to transit are 3200 times greater than federal subsidies for autos.·

Debbie Tobler-Rydin: Thank you, Panos, for not stopping on your quest to stop RAIL!
Russell Pang: You making a great case of why the Long Train Running needs to be stopped now…Thank you!

Iris Tanabe-Hirose: Mr. Prevedouros,
Will the rail run 24/7? How much will the fare be for one way? How long will it take to get to Aloha Tower from the starting point ? these issues were never mentioned, I think. Then, after getting of at the Aloha Tower, one would have to catch a cab or the city bus! Spending more money! Was there any poll taken from west Oahu on how many people would really ride the Rail? they should!
PLEASE STOP THE RAIL !

Panos D Prevedouros Fare will be over $3 in 2020 one way. Actual cost per trip will be over $25. End to end the trip wiill take about 45 minutes excluding the time and transfers to access the stations. If a train is full then two thirds of the passengers will be standees.

Russell Pang What is the maximum number of passengers that can be “safely” transported in one run?
Iris Tanabe-Hirose ‎”RIDICULOUS !!!”
You see Mr. Prevedouros, SO MANY UNADDRESSED, UNANSWERED DETAILS OF THIS RAIL !!!! Mr. Pang posted a question already !!! SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE !

Mr. Prevedouros, your idea and Ms. Kobayashi’s made more sense !!

How can the people who want to stop this type of rail do anything ?
like I said before, I voted for you the last time !!! PLEASE run for mayor again next year !!!!!!!!!! the mayor we have now, got no chance next year ! it’s to bad we’re stuck with our governor for awhile !
one question you didn’t answer, WILL THE RAIL RUN 24/7 ?
mahalo with much aloha,
iris

Panos D Prevedouros: Trains will run 20 hours on weekdays, less on weekends. Max capacity is 600 passengers per train. The plan is to run a train every 3 minutes in peak periods, every 6 to 10 minutes off peak and weekends.

David Oshiro: How many people will be able to commute to work on a train? How much will it cost each person to commute round trip? What is the actual cost for a single person to commute round trip? How much time is saved for a person to commute via train as opposed to riding the bus or driving? Finally, how long will it take for the cost of building and operating rail to be made up by ridership?

Panos D Prevedouros: A lot, in theory. The actual problem is that in reality over 95% of people who drive do NOT switch to trains. Roundrip with monthly car about $5. Actual cost $50. City studies say that if you live east of Kaonohi Drive then auto beats the rail to work. Never of course. True cost per round trip is ~$50 and actual fare is ~$5! And every 30 years you have to rebuild the whole rail systems, escalators, elevators, controlers, machines, etc. A complete money pit. That’s why THEY like it! THEY got us for good.

Iris Tanabe-Hirose OH NO !!!
are you saying, it’s a done deal and absolutely nothing can stop the rail ? where are the “STOP RAIL NOW” people ? what, they gave up ?

$5 per trip is pretty steep. That’s $25 per week and $100 per month. Lot less than paying for gas but more expensive then catching the bus.

Iris Tanabe-Hirose Mr. Oshiro, $5.00 is nothing !!! the riders still have to pay for a cab or bus fare once they reach the end of the line, which is the aloha tower !!! it takes me about 40 minutes from aiea to the university and it cost me only $2.50 and i… use the transfer to come back home !!! if you pass the transfer time, just another $2.50 . (the a-express bus has a longer time frame for the transfer) they should just double the buses !!! i would think it would be less costly then taking the rail !!! i heard that the c-express is a good way to travel from the leeward coast !!! double that route, too !!!See More

John Ellis Iris, Ala Moana center is the end of the line. It has been in the initial plan from its inception from what I understand. The only changes to the route since it’s first design was the shift from Aiea to the airport, and a few minor shifts… for utilities and stuff. But, I still agree, it’s ridiculous. Why does TheTrain service an empty field in Kapolei but not Waikiki or UH Manoa? Ridiculous. I would LOVE a train, if they could do it right. But as we all know, this city and state cant seem to get anything right. We need Panos in city hall!

Rick Emmerich what about the parking at the place you pick up rail? Will that cost money? Will it even be there? What happens (if it IS there) when it is full, just drive to work right? How about the extreme delays that will happen as they tear up the route to build the rail. In 50 years will those still alive feel it was worth the trouble and money? NOPE

Panos D Prevedouros This is the untold story that will drive my Kapolei friends totally mad: The excuciating delays over 6 to 10 years during construction. Many people will lose their mind when 2, 4 or all lanes on Farrington and Kam Hwy close for weeks at a time…
Panos D Prevedouros Followed by closures on Dillingham, Queen, etc. People have never seen anything like it. Just imagine the closure that is needed to install a football field 30 ft up in the air over two major intersecting streets…
50 minutes ago · LikeUnlike · 2 peopleLoading….Rick Emmerich How many businesses along there will be lost, forever. And the nerve of the Rail Pushers to suggest that the development will be substantial. At what cost? The guy that was interviewed in Waipahu the other night can’t sleep through the night due to the very loud drilling up toi 3AM. How long will he, (and many others have to sacrifice.)
49 minutes ago · LikeUnlike · 1 personLoading….Iris Tanabe-Hirose mr. prevedouros, in 2008 election 140,623 people voted “NO” to the rail !!!
it’s been 3 years, it’s time to take another vote on the rail before the city spends all the money that we could using for pot holes !!! maybe a special election on this rail matter !!!
what you just posted is just what is going to happen!

Rick Emmerich Is it too much to consider that maybe this island has enough development out west, (sorry Disney). Could the big contractors live withou paving over ag fields. One day, Oahu will truly regret giving up some of the most valuable (in my opi…nion anyway) agricultural land in the world. Could the union laborers and people that build those developments at least consider for a second that the state doesn’t owe you a construction job.
