Now the truth has come out...Trump told puppydog Pence to leave if anyone took a knee, knowing full well that the 49er's were going to do exactly that! The press pool was told to stay in the van as there might be an early departure! This entire "thing" was a political stunt perpetrated by TRUMP.
He seems to think that the Presidency of the United States is another Reality Show. The trouble is, it is REAL and Trump may well lead to the deaths of many South Koreans if allowed to continue! It is time to IMPEACH!

Excellent move on VPN Pence's part. No support for those who disrespect the flag or the Police.
There is NO disrespect for the flag!! That is made up by Trump himself. This is protest of all the Blacks being killed by the police in the USA without cause and then no prosecution.

American have said by major majorities that they want gun control. But the Republican portion, and many Democrats in Congress, are OWNED by the National Rifle Association. The NRA used to be an organization for sportsmen, but it has been taken over by the gun manufactures.
The votes to defeat gun control legislation have been bought and paid for by the NRA!

There is one factor that you need to consider: Trump's word is worth NOTHING!! He lies much more than he tells the truth. He says what he thinks you want to hear. He is willing to attack on twitter where he doesn't have to face the victim.

I am an American Expat, living in Pattaya, and have used this car rental company. There were no problems and the return process went very quickly.

Is the best warning they can put out...no specifics as to what areas, other than very general terms??? Doesn't help much and can lead to life loss.

Why would lightning strikes humans?
The lightning in all probability struck the pine tree which was probably the highest point nearby. The extreme amount of electricity in a lightning strike causes electrical shock to those close to the lightning strike. I have seen a case where over two dozen sheep were killed sleeping under a large oak tree that was struck by lightning.
As to the cell phone...It is unlikely that they had any direct affect on the lightning strike.

That was my guess also!!

Two story building...shouldn't be hard to get out. I'd give odds that they were locked in that room!!!

Well, guess we must be led by Hitler or Trump...not sure which???

If coming from USA, they will throw all of that in trash before you get on plane. Empty suitcase should be no problem with Thai customs.
This is not at all true. I bring snacks, meat, chocolates, and tons of sugar free stuff every year (hard to get sugar free here) and have never had a problem from the US and/or Thailand. This includes carry on luggage that was hand checked in the US.
With a carry on make sure you have NO liquids and nothing sharp or dangerous. Bring your snacks and enjoy...don't worry!!

They wouldn't know/recognize DEMOCRACY if it slapped them in the face....Sick!

Did the editors of this board ever think that some things are marked "Secret or Confidential" because they are Secret. Does putting this out help anyone but the terrorist who now know what the government knows?? People would be hard pressed to protect themselves from ISIS, as no one know where they might strike next!

What a great way to encourage tourism....with threats of fines, etc.

Why move your problems...FIRE them...Terminate their employment...and put them in prison if they committed a crime. Why keep paying these crooks???

Do you posters that can only make smart remarks that add nothing to this board ever consider the plight of the PEOPLE that had their lives destroyed yesterday??? These people had next to nothing...and now they have nothing..no cookware, no clothes, Nothing!! As a fire chief in the US I was at several labor camp fires, and we always had Red Cross, Salvation Army, Good Will, etc. to come in and help the people immediately. I can just imagine what kind of help these people got from social services....Nothing!!
Maybe this is your entertainment to make fun while others are suffering....ever think about adding something to this board????

Some food items that are available in BKK are still not readily available here in Pattaya. Specifics....Frozen tubs of Cool Whip, variety of cake and other food mixes, and often fresh Brussels Sprouts and celery!!

Nice of Thailand to let the US use the airport that the US built, along with the fuel farm, etc. Come to think of it, how many Thai cities would not have the nice big airports they have if the US hadn't built the airports??

Why close both directions? Damn too cautious and an over-reaction least keep the furthest direction open...
Never seen in LOS any lane closed due to an accident...
I have rolled by road victims less than five feet from my vehicle...
Practical is to meet somewhere in the middle between the two countries' strategy plans...

The best reason to close both lanes is public safety. A major accident draws attention of drivers in the open lanes, and leads to rear end collisions quite often. Also, it improves the access for emergency equipment and safety of firefighters while battling the blaze.
I wouldn't consider LOS conduct at accident scenes as an example that I would like to follow or have followed!!!
In answer to NeverSure's question...the plane is on the freeway. but most of the shell of the plane is melted so you have the engine and support structure remaining. You might notice in the video the tail dropping...this is from the heat of the fuel fire melting the majority of the plane.

Why do reports on such incidents so often say the plane "skidded" off the runway? What evidence is there for skidding? Indeed, how can a plane skid? Only in the way that a car can skid, i.e. after trying to brake the wheels or because of a slick/icy surface. But planes don't brake with the wheels, they brake by using reverse thrust or deploying the flaps.
Failing any evidence of skidding, these reports ought to say something like "veered" off the runway.
Planes do have wheel brakes also. They are differential braking...that is the left foot brakes the left wheels and the right foot brakes the right wheels, so you can steer the airplane with the wheels as well as the rudder if you have sufficient speed and the steerable nose wheel with a small steering wheel in the cockpit!!
Also, you can skid sideways, especially landing in any kind of crosswinds.
Applying too much brake pressure to one side, or having a wheel brake lock (after possible damage from contacting the approach lights??) could cause you to skid off the runway.

It would be a lot more difficult...If not impossible...to provide a list of 100 government officials WHO ARE NOT CORRUPT!!!

I would suggest going to 3bb and asking for a router with wi-fi, etc. I have a 3bb modem with four ports and good wi-fi with an antenna.
Good luck

No matter the condition of the bus...If you can not get a piece of fire fighting equipment for one hour on a main traveled road, then you might just as well not have the fire equipment at all. Even a rural area should be able to maintain a 20 to 30 minute response time!!

U.S. Senate reiterates that there are laws in the United States some of which Obama must obey. Putting him on a leash is not a bad idea. prior to him giving away the store
The leash needs to be on the animals of the Republican Congressmen. They are nuts!!! I think their actions border on Treason. What a bunch of racist!!

Don't be too sure that Trump is not the threat. If they get close to prosecuting him or his family for all the Russia collusion, then he will have to do something big to deflect from that action. And attacking North Korea would be a real deflection.
