Carl, You appeal is from the heart. But my first impression is that you have fallen in love / Lust; and have not experienced enough of Thailand yet.

If your not in country I suggest you start reading http://www.stickmanbangkok.com . Alot of good advice.

Is this Bangkok or Chiang Mai? There is an Acer on the ground floor in both. If Chiang Mai go to Acers authorized repair center just past canal road on the right hand side on Kat Suan Kaeo.

...........heading towards the Mt Doi Suthep on Huay Kaew Rd, Acer is just past canal Rd on the right hand side (ie, opposite side of Rd).

I'm using Tippmanee (TMN) at the moment.

Quality is similar compared to Sophon

TMN has 92 channels and Sophon 63

Rate: TMN THB 350-THB 400 against Sophon THB 300-THB 350

Installation fee: TMN THB 1500 against Sophon THB ?

The owners of TMN are the son and daughter of the Sophon owners.

Won't be surprised if the hardware is one and the same company.

If TMN covers yoiur area, it's always a better deal

[/quote

Can any reader confirm or deny posters assumption that TMN has the "History" channel.

I agree that is a very worthwhile aspect if true.

Eggo, ref this Joseph Solution you're always talking about: Am I the only one ignorant of it's details / your proposals? Do you have this on the internet somewhere for all to see or am I forever going to wonder what you're talking about?

It's something that admin/mods have told him to stop posting about in his repetitious, nonsensical posts. Several of them were deleted in the past with warnings issued, yet after a brief cooling off period, he persists again with it.

But as jayjayo stated, at times he has some good points. It's the points I agree with that intrigue me. But, is there any real meat behind those points? Are we going to have to continue debating in our minds: Is there substance or is he a nut case? I agree there really isn't press freedom in Thailand when everybody can be hit up with Lese Majeste (spelling) so darn easily, but Come on eggo, tell us where to go to get the answer.

if national reconciliation and reform plans are kept on the track and produce a concrete outcome.

IF is the biggest word in the English dictionary!

=====================================================

There are just TOO many open and visible signs and indications that deconciliation and deformation is where Thailand is heading to, add the 'secret' unintelligence reports into the mix. Reconciliation and reformation will NOT work. The Kingdom of Thailand NEEDS TRANSconciliation and TRANSformation. There's a BIG difference of getting back to ABnormal and/or bringing out Thailand's real potential to be a G30 Nation.

[A Chinese -Thai linguistics Prof, neighbour of sister in law told me, off handed, in 2007, that Thailand will be breaking up into 3 countries. It was what led me to fully predict the what happened in 2010. It has become searingly obvious he knew what he was talking about.]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For Thailand to have a strong & fighting chance to have fair and peaceful elections some criteria would, first, have to established.

Two benchmarks, of the many listed in The Joseph Solution, are, one, there would have to be a NEW politcal system with the automatic, built in corruption watch dog I have designed. Two, Sondhi and Thaksin would both have to be in jail, where they BOTH belong.

Heck, #3, freedom of speech, DUH.

Eggo, ref this Joseph Solution you're always talking about: Am I the only one ignorant of it's details / your proposals? Do you have this on the internet somewhere for all to see or am I forever going to wonder what you're talking about?

we went to the vets tonight and the dog looks a lot better than it was although we are still up against the local culture and although we thought an x-ray had been done it hasnt and the vet has no facilities for this so we have to take the dog to an animal hospital in nakula tomm and pay about 700 for the x-ray it will then need treatment re. damage to legs etc.

we now think it will not be put down and need to think about a home------------will prob have a permanent limp or 2 poss on both front legs. the last poster here was thoughtful enough to bring food which the dog eat keenly so sort of on mend----------------he helps other dogs all the time !

we cant help them all but my feeling is--------------ok call me silly dont care------------that if we can help one or two then we are " making merit " in our own way.

To paraphrase a Chiang Mai animal assistance group:

Helping one dog will not change the world; but the world will change for that one dog,

"Doesn't surprise me that both back wings are unsold and will remain that way when you look at the price and shape of those shells.

I would think that it hasn't reached even 50% capacity yet."

From looking at the list few months ago, the main building without the wings is about 80-90% sold out. Strangely enough not even one condo is sold in the wing section.

Makes you wonder why they bothered to build this part of the building.

Their purpose was to block the view of Jomtien Complex Condotel owners.

Disclaimer

Until now, I had never heard of "The Joseph Plan Foundation". It looks like a good organization but has nothing to do with The Joseph Solution or The Joseph Plan, my problem concepts for Thailand that I have been working on for nearly 2 years.

Can you educate us further?

What is the Joseph Plan???

No matter what you say, Mark & PAD is good. Thaksin & UDD is evil.

Who is this Mark guy? I thought on Thai visa only proper names were to be used. I can't find any politician in Thailand called Mark, if its another name for Mr Thaksin then perhaps you should use that name instead.

If this is true. Seh Deang should not be used as well. Seh Deang is a nick name just like Mark.

OK I get it now it Mark is Seh Daeng's nickname thanks I thought they were talking about Mark Thaksin. Its all clear now cheers.

If not mistaken, I think I remember something about Abhisit using the nickname "Mark" while studing in UK. Not 100% surte about it, but in back of my mind.

Funny stuff. Try Yok or the bakery store. They have cashews, almonds, pistachios, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, sun flower seeds and macadamias. Pop them on a plate into the microwave for a minute, toss and put in for another minute. Best way to crisp up a raw nut.

Where is Yok?

Where is the Bakery store?

BTW Tigers Bar was on Suriwongse Road, not in Patpong.

I remember it being on Silom Rd, opposite the entrance to Patpong. ???

Although it is a rare occasion I go downtown these days and I find it hard to recognise most places anymore, nor even get my bearings, jeez I hope my memory aint that bad. It was on Suriwongse, on the opposite side of the road as you walked out of Patpong I (Qantas Airline End) just down a bit, going towards Rama IV

I agree with your description exactly except my memory says it was Silom not Suriwongsi. I can't remember where Quantas was. I must have gone by it 1000 times while assigned to JUSMAG. I lived around the corner on Soi Pipot I think it was. Oh yes, I looked on internet and an address for Lucy's Tiger Den was given as 285/11 Silom Rd.

For the short term, you can also try taking over the counter Zyrtec pills at night which should help you itch less.

Yes, an antihistimine will help you sleep as well, if that's what you want. Zyrtec 10mg is not as strong as Atarax 25mg, and the Atarax is cheaper as well. If you don't need the full 25mg, simply bite it in half.

I can't speak for Oz, only NZ and the US. In both of those countries, it doesn't matter where in the world the baby is born, as long as one parent has citizenship of either of those countries, the child is entitled - required - to be a citizen.

Besides, wasn't Mr Abhisit born in England of Thai parents? He certainly is a Thai citizen.

Thailand's current King was born in the US, which would have made him a US citizen. I don't know if / when he may have given it up, but I assume he did.

If you are using XP just click

Start

search

for files and folders

pictures music or video

pictures and photos

Don't write anything in the file name box, just click search. It will find every relevant file on your computer.

If you can remember when the pictures were put on your computer you can use advacned search and enter relevant dates, if you're not sure ignore advanced search.

Found the pics. Thanks everybody, for your advice.

If you restore a file/folder from the recycle bin it will go back to the place it was deleted from.

ie. If it was on your desktop it will go back there, or if it was in 'my documents' that is where it will go.

An easy way to find the images is to search for all images on the hard drive and look at them.

Maverell, thanks for advise. I do not know where it came from. I will do as you suggest - search for all images on the hard drive. But the search option I'm familiar with (right click start icon) wants me to give it a file name. Should I just say "images"? Plus, the images were in a folder. Anyway, thanks, I'll try.

I wanted to restore a folder containg a few pictures from my recycle bin. Now I know I should have simply dragged it to my desktop. Instead I clicked "Restore" I think the menu also said it would be archived.

Now I can not find it anywhere in my computer. A professional computer repair person at TukCom Pattaya told me he would have to know the file name inorder to help me find it. You guessed it - I do not know the file name.

Based upon what I did, does anybody have any suggestions? BTW, it's obvious that technically I'm not the most computer savvy person, so I don't mind paying a professional for help.

He intends to use beef for American style hotdogs. I for one can't wait as I usually only get beef hotdogs at the US Consulate on fourth of July!

Hurry up. Hurry up. Hurry up.

Those not familiar with the US may not recognize this product, but, FYI, the only frankfurter for which the US FDA requires a health warning label is the "Barny Frank".

Can anyone please advise where I can buy professional chemicals (& sprayer) to periodically spray to prevent termites in my condo rooms in Chiang Rai (Condo in Chiang Mai also). I'm looking for something stronger than the typical canned bug & mosquito sprays available at local shops such as Big C.

Of course VT7 is here to stay. That decision was made years ago when the building injunction was lifted.

Of course the distance to build higher than 14 m is meant to be 200m from msl inward,

a law or whatever having been in place for some three decades. The way JCC. Was built.

But when a project promises such a golden future why not employ an expert witness

to clarify the situation accordingly. Now I suppose to get a final decision from a court

might require some more time like ten or so years because would they decide it to

be legal what a precedent for all future cases. And to declare it illegal suddenly what then.

Knock it down to 14m ? You must be joking. So I suppose, the case will keep on

hanging and hanging maybe until doomsday.

I don't think anybody abused the local legal system because a judge should be required

to dismiss a case unless it has legal grounds.

Of course it would easily be possible that those 200m have been violated before but

probably never faced such decisive and fierce opposition.

Now I suppose to get a final decision from a court

might require some more time like ten or so years because would they decide it to

be legal what a precedent for all future cases.

In which case the law will have been, in effect, rewritten by VT7. TIT.

Mr marekm1

Their 525 condo in JCC and 96% on the owners back the stopvt7 group and I'm happy to be part of that group of supports.

So what don't you understand about English in reading the court case. We understand clearly that the law said measure 200 meters and were it noted on the map to start the measurement. It is also clear Issue 9 was an update which made changes to Issue 8 and 9 was not written to restate 8 as only one court witness claimed. So let the court decide before you talk about abuse of the Thai law system.

If this was a frivolous case the Adm Supreme Court would not accepted the appeals. If I were you, I would wait for the final decision before moving in furniture.

Whatever the outcome of the court's ruling on the appeal bids, the Supreme Administrative Court's injunction putting on hold 65 projects at Map Ta Phut should serve as a valuable lesson to all investors that they have to be socially responsible and take into consideration the well-being of the people living in close proximity to the sites of their projects. There is not a single doubt that foreign investment is still needed and will always be welcome in this country, but projects which are dirty and harmful to the environment or to the health of the people should not be tolerated even though they may create jobs and improve growth figures

Im Familiar with Pat Int Hospital, and over the years have had some good doctors treat me there, although a touch expensive especially with the medicine charges.

Did you actually see a urologist there or a GP on the ground floor?

As i do know that the urologist operate on the 4th floor in the building.

Dr Jimmy (Thai Dr) at Bangkok Pattaya hospital or one of the hospitals in Siracha (hospital overhead costs lower). I thought he was excellent and other friends of mine thought as well.
