Why do you say the online version doesn't show it? It's there everyday now via the link I posted. That was why I said it will only be valid today, because tomorrow it will show Thursday's cartoon.
Yes, I meant it's not there for reference/catch up. You are correct.

Fire objects like darts or ping-pong balls from the vagina, it's ok so long as that is a 'protected' venue...invite some passers by to try beers = crime. Is it surprising that some /many shake their heads? ( I don't mind either act, just object to the bare-faced hypocrisy involved).

Loosely related is the cartoon in Today's Nation. The cartoonist (Steph?) has captured a lot of relevance with all the dials, etc in the background. I thought it's a very observant cartoon.
Here's the link: http://www.nationmultimedia.com/cartoon
although it will only be valid for today.
I hope I don't into trouble for this, but I'm going to include the image as well. I suppose any mod could just delete the image if I have transgressed any rule.
Indeed. Slightly OT, but I wish Thai Visa and The Nation would post the cartoon each day. Often, I don't have access to the print copy and the online version doesn't show it. Steph hits the mark about 80%.

Expect the announcement of the Pattaya Winter Mozart Festival. Quality tourists will come in droves; maybe an outdoor, beach-side venue would be nice.

Classic Mandy Rice-Davies.

Yes, I got it from Flyertalk. I saw NYC for $1028. Oct/nov but the fares will go really quickly.
Qatar is now cancelling these tickets, claiming they are "mistake" fares. Pity.

Got any sample dates? I checked and see $2600 as the cheapest business class option to LAX from SGN. Added, looking at that flyertalk thread I might have just missed it.

We just flew them and it's a nice airline. 24 hours in Doha could be interesting!
Yes, agree, nice airline. I used them a lot ex Cairo but that has stopped because of the ban. I think I was on the last Qatar flight into Cairo the day relations were cut.
These flights book in "R" class ( a business restricted) but still earn the full whack on most One World programs .
Ive never seen fares this cheap.

Super cheap deals on Qatar now ex HCMC, including business fares to the US for around $1000 return. Also cheap flights to J'Burg business (rarely seen and someone was asking about it). Valid until Dec, wide availability, unheard of cheap...won't last long. Google flights search will show the options.
I'm booked up already and a bit pissed that this has come without warning. But good if you can go and don't mind 24 hours in Doha ( and departing from, returning toHCMC).
Bargain.

Crazy thing about it s that it was most likely Aussie tuna in the first place.Is Thailand famous for their tuna industry? No.
I saw a documentary about the Tassie tuna fisherman who sent the tuna to Thailand by airfreight to process and then sent back to Oz because it was cheaper to do so.
Yes, correct. It is virtually impossible to find canned tuna that is not "product of Thailand", as the big Thai fish company controls the industry ( and in virtually every country, including the USA, as well as Europe).
TV Monde did a very good documentary on it last year.

Did CP get the catering contract?

Great cover in the NY Post: Survivor White House ( 1/2 way down the linked page).

Quality canned fish should last for many , many years. Fish that been improperly processed is dangerous ( as consumers of tuna sandwiches in Sydney discovered last year). The fishy aspect of the story is that there was a bad smell....it sounds as though the whole batch was somehow contaminated .
Fish related food poisoning...once experienced it is never forgotten.

So you can make special bread for keto diet ?
This one is quite tasty and easy to make. There are dozens, hundreds maybe, others on YouTube.
I would buy it if I could, but finding low carb bread is a challenge ( although Villa Market now stocks "high protein bread" in a couple of brands, expensive at 260 baht for a tiny packet.

exhibition should be taken down , anything glorifying or normalizing this psychopaths life is an affront to all who suffered under the Germans 2nd attempt of world domination
That's one way of looking at it...and has been the majority opinion/official policy in Germany since the end of the occupation. The other side is that Germany is a totally different place now and it's citizens are, of course, more than capable of viewing these events/exhibitions without becoming attracted to the philosophy of Nazism.
In fact there are many permanent exhibitions in venues throughout the country ( just without the personal elements involved in this one).
IMHO, it's a good thing to put more sunlight on this period of a German history. Young people are sometimes attracted to that which is verboten, if only for the very reason it is so.

We'll know just how serious they are when there is action taken against those with unexplained wealth...or those who appoint their children to government paid jobs without any selection process ( often those who have themselves been appointed without s competitive process or any vetting).

Oh, please...the translation was completed more than 10 days ago and yet he still says "will be sent" not "has been sent". We are not talking about something Proustian in respect of length and yet it takes years....the public is not so gullible to buy these excuses.

This is what comes of squeezing into skimpy, tight Italian underwear. It has been reported before.

Is there anything trump can do anymore that would shock and be the last straw for the complicit republicans?
It's like this is a grand game for him.
If Scaramucci is correct in his twitter assertion that Priebus is the leaker then it would seem the undermining is coming from within. I truly hope so.
In the same article the BBC characterises the White House as being like the final scene of Reservoir Dogs ( in which they all turn on each other).
The bloated horror will be gone by Christmas.

The abysmal state of them became apparent after the Erawan bomb: IIRC, 50% not working, a big gap in coverage of what happened.
