  1. Hardly looks like an attack but more like a staged event. You have six people wearing red clothing and one with a mask. Everyone seems to be in party mood with happy smiling faces. Look at the pic, that is definitely staged. The guy in red is smiling and the little woman in the stripes is apparently being held back by the invisible man.

    Not sure how you came to this conclusion.

    There is another video of the Red Shirts burning posters and banners of white masks. I thought that staring fires was appropriate(typical behavior) of Reds Shirts.

    Thank you for posting this. It does a good job showing what animals the Red Shirts are.

  2. I paid $53,41 inclusive shipping. Healdesigns.com is where i got it.

    Had trouble finding healdesigns.com. Don’t know if it’s my cruddy Internet or what... Is it possible you meant healthdesigns.com?

    Either way, am curious about your experience shipping supplements to Thailand?

    How long does it take for your order to arrive?

    Any problems with taxes?

    Are there some supplements that one *shouldn’t* have shipped to Thailand?

  3. Got some free samples of Animal Rage in my Animal Pak. Wasn't expecting much of them, but I was way wrong. They really rock.

    Right now I have enough energy for my workouts, but if I ever feel I need something, I'm spending my money on Animal Rage.

  4. At Vibhavadi Hospital, a two-scan package costs 2,100 THB, and one scan costs 1,700 THB.

    A very reasonable price, but they couldn’t verify if the reports include muscle mass and body fat information. Most likely because their English (and my Thai) just couldn’t bridge the gap.

    From doing a little research on the Internet, found that a DEXA scanner requires special software to determine body composition.

    I may make a visit to Vibhavadi and BNH Hospitals to see if I can get more information, but am not holding my breath. If DEXA scanners came out of the crate with the ability to determine body composition, that would be one thing. But needing special software to do so increases the degree of difficulty for the locals.

  5. Just got off the phone with BNH Hospital.

    They do indeed have a DEXA machine, and the cost of a scan in 4k THB.

    Unfortunately, the girl on the phone couldn’t tell me if the scan included body-fat information. I think it’ll require a visit to sort out.

    On Monday, I’ll call Thammasat, and Pattaya Bangkok to see if they have the machines, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it requires a visit to determined exactly what they offer.

    The scan I did covered bone density and body fat info.

    Let us know what you discover. 4K is reasonable. It's not something you'd have to do too often.

    I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that the DEXA in Thailand also included body-fat information and the Thais just don’t know it. But I wouldn’t spend a satang on the test unless I can verify that it does indeed include body-fat information.

    Currently, my body-fat percentage is high enough that I’m satisfied with the US Navy formula to gauge progress, but I do think it would be a good idea to have a DEXA scan to compare with future scans.

  6. Thanks this is usefull information. Its expensive but not that expensive. I could do it once every 2 months or so.

    BNH isn’t known for being the least expensive hospital. Thus I’m hoping some other hospitals might be less expensive. But I will say that it’s difficult to beat the service at BNH. If one doesn’t speak Thai, a visit to BNH is a piece of cake.

    Since my last post, found out that Samitivej and Vibhavadi Hospitals also have DEXA machines, as does Bangkok Hospital, Phuket.

    The GF has a relative that’s a doctor at Vibhavadi. Will try to get some more information today, if possible.

  8. Just over a year ago, I obtained an O-A Multi-Entry visa. Shortly before it expired, I traveled to Vientiane and back, which I understand enables me to stay for another year.

    I would like to do more travelling throughout SEA, but am confused about my current visa situation. Am I good to go for another year, or does my situation now require re-entry permits to leave and re-enter Thailand to ensure I don't lose my current visa status?

    TIA
