Ah, that's not Alice, we know who it really is. Why would I re-emburse for something I already paid for, twice? I'm just putting to the use for which they are originally intended, which is to purchase food. I can't even get them now, they are a valued commodity. Only the drug sealers are making the money.

THREE MILLION??????????

If you can believe this mayor it was more like $23 million but probably more. Why was this not all paid by federal along with the alleged "dignitatry" expenses?

Another thing, tv newsman said Hawaii paid to NFL $4 million to host Pro Bowl here and seemed thrilled that we receved $3 in return. Isn't that another million they will steal from sewer, hurricane, transportation or another taxpayer funded fund?
..........

Mayor Peter Carlisle says it cost Honolulu less than half the budgeted $43 million to host the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum.

Final costs for hosting APEC in November were calculated this week. Carlisle says the price tag ended up being less than $21 million.

APEC expenses included paying for supplies and equipment and ensuring the safety of dignitaries such as President Barack Obama. The city has applied for federal reimbursement for some of the costs.

The savings will offset increased electricity and fuel costs for city operations.

Daily Horoscope for June 4

Scorpio

Today's Lunar Eclipse at the Full Moon stirs up powerful emotions during the next two weeks (as it has done since the Gemini Solar Eclipse last month), and it may not be a very pleasant experience. Are you feeling rather compulsive and obsessive? Financial issues could be a problem,, especially if they appear to threaten your sense of emotional security. Don't let jealousy or envy make you do things that will set other people against you.
