  1. Wasn't there two 9 year olds pregnancies reported in the news a couple of years back (two in the same month - different provinces) - never heard any more, so maybe they miscarried (illegal abortion?).

    Yes, as ThaiAtHeart suggested - PM runs the woman's rights group here, it would only take a word and tea money or no, they'd be an arrest.

    im pretty certain that even with thailands draconian abortion laws, the mothers age would be considered an extenuating circumstance

  2. Balloon chasers don't drink Gordon's G&T.

    Balloon chasers sip coca-cola as they heap their plates and guzzle free-food.

    You do know what a balloon-chaser is, right?

    gordons, my, oh my. I had you pegged wrong. You are far more sophisticated than I could have imagined.

    Do tell us where are the hi-so happy hours? Im looking to meet a better class of 2 for 1 connoisseurs.

  3. When emptying half a can you should consider that these pesticides are also dangerous to humans (especially those not grown up yet) and pets.

    I understand your concern for the health of children, but I doubt if harmful to humans those insecticides would be allowed to be sold worldwide.

    hahahahahaha! really?

    Well that is what wiki tells me

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bifenthrin

    from your links:

    Cytotoxicity

    Scientific tests in vitro have concluded that cytotoxic damage like DNA-breakdown and gene-mutation can be done by bifenthrin. Cytotoxic effects are not seen directly, but are more long-term-based. These effects can differ in severity based on which enantiomer the body is exposed to and the dose. Cytotoxic damage in humans results from increased oxidative stress, which leads to Single-strand-DNA-breaking and degrading of lipids in the plasma membrane and F-Actine. The exact mechanims included in this path are not completely known yet, though several groups have found matching results regarding increased ROS-production which induces apoptosis. Bifenthrin also activates the LFA-1/ICAM function of T-cells. This function is a marker for inflammation. This means that T-cells will be recognized by your body as if they were inflamed. This can ultimately lead to autoimmune diseases like asthma, bronchitis, arthritis and cancer.[2]

    Neurotoxicity for humans

    Exposure to bifenthrin can be achieved either via skin contact or ingestion. Skin-contact is not toxic, apart from a slight tingling sensation on the specific location of contact. Ingestion is toxic, although only slightly. Concentrations up to 10-4 M are not inducing toxic effects. Commercially available bifenthrin (Ortho Home Defense Max, for example) however, can induce toxic effects in those concentrations, because the added chemicals to Ortho Home Defense Max which for instance improve the sustainability either potentiate bifenthrin or are toxic of their own. Symptoms of excessive exposure to bifenthrin are nausea, headaches, hypersensitivity for touch and sound and irritation of the skin and the eyes.[11]

    the second link aint much better.

    the stuff is poison really, how safe can it be?

  4. I still use old-fashioned Baygon. Some roaches keep running after one load. I‘ll let them run. All of them die, it just takes longer for some.

  5. Either your shift mechanism is out of adjustment or you have worn out the gear cartridge on the rear sprocket. Probably need a new rear gear cartridge and chain. If the teeth on the rear sprocket are rounded, then you need a new cartridge. I usually wear out a gear cartridge and chain once a year. Depends on how much and how far you usually ride.

    The bike is 3ish months old.

    It was fine before I oiled it.

    How does a lay person like myself know if its out of adjustment? If worst comes to worst how much are we looking at for a new rear cartridge? It looks fine to me, not rounded as yet.

    3 months old it is likely cable stretch, on the rear derailleur there are two stop adjust screws which limit how far in either direction the derailleur itself can travel. there is also a barrel to adjust cable tension, though if it is shifting properly in all other gears it is likely the stop adjustment that is out.

    easy enough to adjust if you know what you are doing, if not take it to a bike shop and have them do it.

    you will need suspend the bike and spin the pedals and wheel while making your adjustment.

    to the individual who said all derailleurs are different, i have never encountered a derailleur that was not adjusted vial cable tension and stop screws, its pretty much universal

  6. Apparently there was no need to write the story in english

    If the monk was guilty, the agency should freeze all transactions immediately because there might be some beneficiary parties that are influential persons.

    umm what?

    as an aside, the monk deserves a good probing, but not necessarily by AMLO

  7. or dont.

    just for informational purposes, Mr Bell, above, has thoughtfully provided us with links to 3 heady tomes he himself has authored.

    They are composed primarily of Thailand cliches, but hopefully rewritten in such a way as to render them "fresh" and "different".
