  1. I bet it happened in the relatively tight left curve in Hua Saphan where the road goes over a khlong, opposite to a Thai temple (Wat Khema) on the west side of the road (a mile before Makro). https://maps.app.goo.gl/ ?g_st=ipc
  2. Yes, there are right hand steering Corvette cars manufactured in the good old USA (Kentucky). https://www.motortrend.com/news/2022-chevrolet-corvette-c8-rhd-japan
  3. The following case shows pretty well the limits of the system in Canada (or at least in Ontario). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth_Wettlaufer
  4. Canada has its fair share of scandals but inquiries seem to go nowhere beyond a certain point. The provincial colleges of Physicians, Nurses and the hospitals administrators are well-known for keeping outsiders away from their proceedings. The Toronto Sick Kids is among the top with suspicious malevolent behaviors. thttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toronto_hospital_baby_deaths
  5. Just spent 2 weeks in Utah and Arizona. Domestic and international tourists everywhere. Hotels packed, no cars to rent and booking required to access national parks due to demand. Camping sites and RV campgrounds booked solid. Marinas on Lake Powell busy like a 4th of July. The Grand Canyon train from Williams is booked a week ahead. So I don’t have any worry about tourism in the US. Inflation is down to 2.3%. As of June 2025, the US had the strongest economy in the world with a GDP of 30 trillion US$ followed by China 19.23 trillion US$. The US GDP is more than 1/3 of the global GDP. So rest easy.
  6. That’s why you left Switzerland like many of your compatriots. You can’t afford to live in your own country and need to shop across the border in France or Italy. The Swiss government just cut its growth forecast for 2025 and 2026 to 1.3% and 1.2% respectively. Exports have been falling 0.3% and imports rising 0.4% in 2024. GDP per capital has been going down since 2022 and is stagnant for 2025. On the banking side the Credit Suisse downfall ($510 million in penalties paid to the US) and UBS ($306 million fines) does not help to recover the confidence of the foreign investors.
  7. ….but now they are eating from his hands; they know he has the solution for getting rid of their main competitor which is TikTok. They may even participate to the eventual pool of investors aligned to take control of it.
  8. Carney is an idiot who has no negotiation skills, a loser from the start. Since being installed as PM (not elected) he has achieved nothing. He won’t last very long. He has just “recycled” the same losers as ministers. None of them have any competency.
  9. No experience with TCL brand but we had an integrated AEG washer and dryer for more than 16 years, imported from Europe. It worked flawlessly until the electronic panel had to be replaced but could not find a spare. You just need to pay attention to the fact that it handles a smaller load for the drying cycle, usually 4 or 5 kilos instead of 8 kilos for the washing cycle. Nowadays technology has changed, using the condenser process. Beware of hard water; before being connected to PWA we were on a well and had to install a water softening installation.
  10. You are right. Only temporary tattoos made with henna are allowed for certain occasions (haram).
  11. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21425704/ Tattoed faces and facial recognition algorithms are not best friends. Passport biometrics and facial recognition camera need to match. If not you don’t get in.
  12. ‘Maybe we should have another study about people who are injured or disabled for the rest of their lives. The Y-axis camel hump would be much more impressive with no downslope after the initial months. Edward Dowd had published similar studies after the release of corporate insurance data regarding the 25 to 45 years old vaccinated employees. The data included deaths, partial and total disabilities and sick leaves.
  13. https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/electric-buses-sitting-unused-cities-across-the-us As far as I know electric buses have been a total failure in Canada and the USA. Cities can’t get rid of their fleet or have no budget fixing them. Most hybrid ones are running on ICE internal devices.
  14. Green anacondas can reach 27 ft in length. https://edition.cnn.com/2024/02/23/americas/worlds-biggest-snake-amazon-intl-scli-scn#:~:text=It measured 8.43 meters long,for a National Geographic series.&text=But experts studying the creatures,such rare ecosystems%2C he added.
