7. Fire Safety Tip
Cooking fires are the leading cause of home fires and the second major cause of death among older adults
If you are cooking and must leave the kitchen, even for only a few minutes, turn off the stove
Keep a fire extinguisher (with a minimum rating of 2A 10BC) in or near your kitchen and learn how to use it
Inspect the fire extinguisher regularly to ensure that it has not expired


8. Car Boom-Boxes
What happened with the Friday Night HPD Squad to stop this noise?


9. STREET PEOPLE
Homeless: They are sleeping on the sidewalks, beaches, and parks in Waikiki

11. STREET PARKING
