Seafood market 24 still has some of the best seafood in bkk. Touristy or not.

Yeh u handled that well. I'll give u a free tip. When someone points a gun at your head and only wants your phone. Give him it. ESPECIALLY if he looks drugged up or drunk.

Your a hero...... .....

Retina MBP. You know it makes sense.

The HASEWELL 13" rMBP has almost the same battery life as the haswell MBA.

May get the US version today at MBK depending on their "markup".

MBk.

fly to HK on air asia buy it golden computer centre.

They must start at every 'girlie bar' in Thailand. No girl should be allowed to work unless she has got a HIV free certificate, and anyone employing such a girl who has not had the test should be prosecuted.

A lot of them do have that certificate (Or test results) about 120thb at any small "Clinic" in lower sukhumvit area. No needles no waiting time....

Haswell 13" MBPr. Smaller footprint than 13" air and not much in it weight wise.

wish it was only yesterday...

My sender has told me they are now going to send it via Sweden.

Sounds dodgy.

Batteries are not a problem if they are declared and of allowable type.

Does anyone know if we can get a vat refund if I buy it on apple store online?

Nope you can't.

Forget all that rubbish.

Villa 33 now has IRN-BRU fully leaded and Sugar free versions.

Say goodbye to those nasty hangovers.

The Thai currency will be maintained at a level acceptable

uh-oh....Welcome to world economics 101.

You won't get anything better than True... stick with it.

i didnt see any true discounts on pricing when i look at the ed pages on the apple store

They are there

no confirmation required. Just order.

Simply negotiate a reasonable fare, maybe 400 - 500 baht, with one of these.

No need just tell them meter. 90% of them are just happy to get any fare back to the city before they are moved on by the airport security.

If the pilot had flown the correct procedure he would not have been able to land at Pakse and would have had to fly to an alternate or back to his departure point, but everybody on board would still be alive.

The only excuse I can find is a complete electrical failure and double engine failure forcing him to ditch the aircraft into the Mekong. There is no indication that this was the case.

There are far more failures/errors/reasons/weather conditions that may have caused this accident.

I do not want to put a lid on the wild speculations and the first conspiracy theories, but as a retired air traffic controller, certified ICAO PANSOPS procedure designer and former holder of a multi engine instrument rating I feel inclined to add my few cents.

Huge speculations in your post...amongst some decent factual information

In a clear deviation from the Instrument Approach Procedure the aircraft was apparently flying low level along the Mekong river in poor visibility. This was most probably done by using the onboard RNAV (Area Navigation)

Impossible to say at this stage.

highly probable that the pilot decided to resort to a non standard, illegal and irresponsible low level approach to enforce a landing, thus wiping out 44 lives.

Impossible to say at this stage.

Alternative:

Sunday Brunch at Trader Vics at Anantara hotel riverside (old marriott) They have now opened a dedicated cheese and cold cut room in the restaurant - simply awesome.
