try looking into the dlink 4g router - no need for usb air card just plug sim into router.  Gives you 4 eth ports and wifi.

No stress - have had no skin in this as we started the move back in 2016 before this.  Simple if that was not the case - TX 65k a month and send back the excess once a year - whole things save cost of letter and trip to CM anyway zero sum game.

where have you been for the last year or so tm30's are required at many local immigration offices, with fines of 800/1600 baht for non submissions, of you haven't left the country for a while, then maybe your local office doesn't enforce the tm30

Well we made a trip just before before Sept. and returned then did a renewal of the visa Oct - no one said a word.  Must be less then a year that it has changed to this.

Can someone here please explain the THB800 per day fine?? For the thai-wife, people here seem to be evading the essential question.

 

"Immigration told me THAI-WIFE MUST PAY THB800/DAY when Late"

Anybody know about this??  

 

The immigration lady made it sound like the THB800 per DAY fine on the 'mia-farang' was something 'new'.

I Thought the place your staying was covered by the entry document, but she acts like your wife must report your having arrived and living at your address i.e. TM30 I think it is. Not the same as a 90 day report at all.  Seems strange to me.  Never reported our address beyond the entry document and during visa renewal - it would seem if it never changed between renewals or after you entered it would not require reporting again and again.

Don't forget to apply for a re-entry permit!

A few years ago I was outside the 30 days and concerned - I asked for re-entry at the same time with info about travel plans on the application for re-entry and had email tickets with me - they didn't ask for them.  They just did both visa and re-entry at the same time and said have a nice trip.

The snake was thinking the same thing - obviously if you mess with them of accidentally get involved there can be problems but if you don't mess with them and properly check before lefting odd things in the yard then your trip getting to Thailand will be more dangerous then they are. The trip will be twice as dangerous if you ride a bus.

Phitsanulok has had the same problems and getting worse. I think the sale of tesco is in short order and they are turning inventory into cash - the final countdown has begun. Death of a retailer.

It may say it is not formatted because the format is not what it is expecting to see.

Try putting it into linux that can read other then just fat32 and nfts formats and see if it mounts there and then you can save the data.

Reformat after saving the data and make it fat32 so windows can see it.

Put adblock on your tool bar use the adblock option. Then selectively unblock site by site as you visit them and continue to block others.

Washington State - well feet webbing would cost less here - she may need that if she wants feel native.

Bergdahl went to Coast Guard boot camp but was dismissed 26 days later on an "uncharacterized discharge," which means that he didn't serve long enough to have his performance judged or characterized. If it was a broken leg or something they would have said so - think about it.

The reasons for the dismissal are still unclear but it normally means they didn't want some sort of legal issue over his being let go and didn't want to record the real reason for that propose. This often happens when a person is under 180 days of service that is let out for being a wacko but it could have been failed piss tests too.

If he got a waver into the army 2 years later he learned to shut up and fly under the radar and get by until he could pull a stunt like he did. He wrote to his sister just before he took off that he was going to do something really big.

The problem for the government is they let him in and should not have - they stopped coding discharges years ago and this is what happens when you do that. His case will bring up the fact that he never belonged in the army in the first place. He will get off the hook and maybe even get a pension.

I don't agree with the trade but we did have a responsibility to get the guy back and his parents were making it clear they were not going to wait any longer and would start legal action. At this point it is almost a show trail - make it go away or should we say make them go away - make it all go away. Forget about him he is home it is over and we will only shoot ourselves in the foot - playing right into the arms of a legal trap.

Pat him on the head and send him home - do us all that favor before it grows into a new round of PC requirements and the tax payers get the bill - it is simple not worth the effort or the cost.

The army screwed up and hired him for the body count - you get what you pay for.

The Ku band small dish with new lnb is cheap and not that hard to align. The up angle can be set same as other dish in the shop and they know what mark to use - then just turn approx bearing when mounted and move left and right for max single on your TV screen as seen in set up mode. If you can't see or hear the person watching the screen or see it yourself use two cell phones and work it out. Same setting works for both UBC and GMM-Z as I use the old UBC dish for both. If I am not mistaken the thing cost 900baht in local shops with an LNB. If you want to spend a bit more they have specials all the time like 1200 baht for GMM-z free to view channels and they will install it for you - then just swap the box and you don't have to do a thing.

Check out the rubber pads used for mounting the A/C units and mount it on those. Most of the noise it transmitted into the structure - isolate it.

This is the way it is - Just get used to the location of the three clicks you need to do it (settings, Language&input, Language). I can almost do blind folded now. I think it is burned into the OS so a restart will go back to Thai every time. Outside of that my phone has been more then I though it would be for the low price. Added the 32gig SD and run dual sim. iMobile 8.3DTV

You have to return a letter each year proof of life or they stop payments - if she was collecting did you set up a mail stop or direct deposit. If she lives in Thailand PI is the office. Most contact with them is via secure email at embassy or consulate - they can return a phone call once contact is made.

They have run a statement on the screen for the last month in both Thai and English that it would end the 17th - no loss only have GMMz for the sports and movies for about175B a month with year package and forget about it just use it. Far cheaper then the internet options. edit: due to only having 3g otherwise net might have options.

A volume is a partition. When first created but before it is formatted, it is called a raw unallocated volume. In that stage it can't contain a drive.

God you can't help yourself can you?

You can create multiple volumes on a partition.

They are not the same thing at all.

Put the Microsoft for Dummies book in the bin.

"Put the Microsoft for Dummies book in the bin." but... but.... but..... Microsoft is for dummies your going to need that.

No tin foil hat here, I can see and think, unlike some of you. Your post say all anyone wants to know about you and your ..... . As I've said, the only ones that could possibly support Ferguson PD are racists themselves. Again, the right wing can't respond to the facts and have to resort to personal attacks. You want to attack me personally, do it to my face. The DOJ report says it all and while you can lie to yourselves, you are the only ones that will believe your lies. Try getting your heads out of faux (not the) news ass. If you can't handle the truth and stick to the subject go find another right winger to listen to your rants about blacks.

I am not supporting the Ferguson PD. I am pointing out that you and people like you are the other half of the problem and you can't see that because you are blinded by your own unwarranted self righteousness. If you took the time to listen to some of the other sides you might find that the talking points you parrot are based on more lies then you might care to accept.

I am in fact nothing close to being a right winger - I am just not a left nut job. To your face - why did you want to also prove you a volatile nut case that can't control himself. If your going to discount a person simple because they are black and don't follow your assumed roll for them it makes you what you are - pointing that out is for your own good. I don't see why you should get upset unless it hits a nerve.

Anyone hovering around the political center as claimed would offer a criticism of both left and right.

Maybe in this instance that will happen over time or perhaps it has happened over time. All the same, it is not evident anywhere in the present tense.

So the claimed political centrist might consider making a note to the self about an alleged balance.

An equal opportunity lecturer, scolder, finger-pointer.

"criticism of both left and right."

I never offered any on ether side to begin with - I responded to the hep of hate I got for a simple statement about the source of a claim someone had made. So the point was made toward the source that it came from - no need to balance anything in that regard. A hate monger is just someone that attacks mindlessly with talking points they really don't even understand and if it comes from the left I respond to them and not both sides - where is the need to balance that - what good does it do to point out anything other then the error of that one person that is calling me a right wing racist because I stated the mans name - maybe I am not up on the latest PC and did not realize that is not allowed anymore.

" lecturer, scolder, finger-pointer."

And the shoe fit - just because some of your volatile left wing nut hypocrites and racists by evidence of there own words have no power of the obvious does not make me the source of their problem.

That person made an obvious racist statement. I really don't see where you should feel the need to be defending it unless you agree with it. Are you supporting the idea that a black man is an Oreo if he disagrees with you too? Where is the balance you will be presenting us while you defend that position.

I responded to a clear cut case of being called a racist without a reason for it and that same person then uses racist remarks to make what I guess you would call a balanced retort from the left.

It cross a few posts so connect the dots.

Make a note to yourself - if your going to give a lecture about a need for balance - do your homework first - make sure the lesson plan applies to the class..

I must admit my mistake. It is apparently not the KKK or a disillusioned right wing Fox viewer...Lord Holder calls the shooter "a damn punk".

The city manager of a near by town to Ferguson on live TV claimed it was the KKK - I don't even think that he can really think that is true ether, but he wanted to spin someone up. I would disregard what he had to say as far from helpful. His name is Mohammad BTW.

Call me Ishmael.

I'll call you RKASA if that would be agreeable.

Regardless, conservatives of all stripes (or spots) find it hard to conceive of, but Eric Holder is basically a cop so he hates "punks."

Any Attorney General of the United States would be an overeducated cop. H/She certainly would be a relative nerd compared to your typical cop, but the "General" would pretty much be a cop, to include especially a cop at heart. Indeed, AG Holder's brother is a retired cop.

Some of us think the word "punk" is emotive and often OTT but then again, for the very reasons stated, cops not only love saying "punk" but also thrive on terms such as "gangbanger" and the like.

While Attorney General Holder has a very low opinion the people called "gangbangers," AG Holder seems to not be so pumped up on using that one as much or as often as do the police and also the internet keyboardbangers do.

While the police have charged into peaceful civil rights demonstrations for who knows how long or over how many decades, I for one haven't ever seen 'em charge with clubs swinging into a KKK rally with its burning cross throwing light on the noose and the tree, and all of the rest of it. If white used to be right, where does that leave blue these daze.

"

Call me Ishmael.

I'll call you RKASA if that would be agreeable."

Well that is the name I go by - I ll call you Publicus.

I pointed out the name of the person that has been claiming it was the KKK in an after thought during the post because that is what he said his name was (do you think it is made up?) and I don't recall the name of the town - so some that may wish to google it for information or clips will have something to work with. You can read the rest of the statement to know I am not spinning up anything, but spinning down some of the BS about claims of who dun it and why.

I agree with Eric Holder and was pointing out that he was not the one saying the KKK did it - but we know who is saying it.

There is a rumor Holder's DOJ Civil Rights Division is going to investigate the National Basketball Association.

It seems that while blacks only represent some 13% of the population, blacks represent 76% of the players.

It is obvious white players are being discriminated against.

The tongue in cheek post obviously has its tongue somewhere else also as I borrow from a part of a SCOTUS ruling of some 60 years ago to say the post is of no redeeming social value.....zero...zilch.....oogats.

The post is in fact a bitter complaint by the conservative and far right against modern society and recent electoral developments in particular, developments the right are determined to arrest but which they cannot stop.

Some on the right rant and rage about it, others there simply cook up oblique and obtuse complaints.

The center right and the far right will carry on however driven by the tea party fringe right.

I see you are one of those that think the teaparty is some sort of anti Obama racist program.

Do you even know who this is;

About the false charges against the pro-freedom, pro-Constitution Tea Party movement that it is somehow “racist,” Innis said he finds the baseless accusations “reprehensible” and “immoral.”

“They’re reprehensible, they’re immoral, they are factually untrue,” Innis said, while mentioning other congressional candidates who came out of the Tea Party movement, including Katrina Pierson in Texas and Erika Harold in Illinois.

Innis pointed out “Tea Party stars” Herman Cain, Allen West, Ted Cruz and others that are “hardly a group that you can call lacking diversity or racist.”

“There’s something palpably absurd about the notion [that the Tea Party is racist],” Innis continued.

BTW this is Innis the executive Director of the Teaparty - one of the big boogee men your trolling about.

Does have some holes in the story for sure. She should have applied for citizenship long ago but didn't - if she got a green card as child she would have had an SSA number so no need for work permit and she may have vary well assumed she was a us cit all that time, it can happen.

She was to have reported every ten years, but many don't and forget. or at least my wife had to until she became a cit herself. PR and green card can be taken away for crimes and cause deportation, but depends on the crime - when you have so many that have done time for murder that still roam the US what is the point of deporting someones wife and mother over some money.

"Workers Compensation if he was self employed" true some try and do it on the cheap to save some money without insurance.

If I stole 51,000 even to cover med bills for my wife - I would be sleeping with bubba and have a nik name like sweet lips for the next 10 years.

I would be bagging for deportation.
