I posted this link on another thread but I think it's actually more apposite here. Ukraine and Russia’s Collapsing Home Front https://nationalinterest.org/feature/ukraine-and-russia’s-collapsing-home-front-213869

Interesting perspective from S. Frederick Starr, Chairman of the Central Asia-Caucasus Institute and former adviser to three US presidents. Based mainly on statements by various people within Russia itself, Starr sees multiple signs of weakness bedeviling the Russian war effort, especially on the economic front and his view is that: Ukraine and Russia’s Collapsing Home Front https://nationalinterest.org/feature/ukraine-and-russia’s-collapsing-home-front-213869 Just one man's opinion but an apparently well-informed one.

You haven't answered the question. How would civil cases keep him off the ballot? (Hint - they wouldn't).

What ballot? Trump is not currently on any ballot. Even if you meant "were" not "are" how would a civil case be an effort to get him off the ballot? In civil cases, the worst that can happen is him being ordered to pay damages.

Anecdotal News about Covid-19 Vax harms
GroveHillWanderer replied to Red Phoenix's topic in Covid/Vaccine
That's a ridiculous mis-statement and so easily disproven that it's laughable. Here's just the first paper (published in March 2020, so very early in the piece) that showed up when I did a Google search. There are plenty of others. First isolation of SARS-CoV-2 from clinical samples in India https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7366528/ Edit: Here's a paper published in The Lancet, documenting how it was first isolated in China on 7 January, 2020. A novel coronavirus outbreak of global health concern https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(20)30185-9/fulltext (Links would not embed). -
It is indeed there to house the navigation anntenae - or at least, it is according to every report I've read or seen. Where do you see that it isn't? As explained by multiple sources, these anntenae would normally be at ground level but because this runway is on a slope, they needed to be higher up. However, instead of raising the anntenae position by using frangible materials, they chose to use solid concrete. Here's just one such report from the BBC. There are others saying the same thing. Why was there a wall near runway at S Korea plane crash airport?

Marriage Extensions.
GroveHillWanderer replied to NoshowJones's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I don't think I would like that either but Hua Hin doesn't require photos taken while sitting on the bed, so it's a moot point (here at least). When they did the home visit (which as I say, was only the once) the IO only took pictures outside the front door and out on the street where the house number is located. No big deal, for me anyway. -
Marriage Extensions.
GroveHillWanderer replied to NoshowJones's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
My personal experience is that processing yearly extensions by reason of marriage are not that much of a hassle at all. I have done four extensions, all in Hua Hin and the only slightly annoying thing about it is the number of documents that need to be signed when you hand in the final package at the Immigration Office. I've never really had a problem about supplying the correct documents, Hua Hin supplies a list of what they require and so long as you follow it, you won't have a problem. The only slight problem I had was in the very first year (when I didn't have the document list from them) and I didn't have a copy of my daughter's birth certificate and had to go back home to get it and make a copy. Subsequent years - plain sailing. I've always found the IO's very pleasant to deal with. No questioning of virtually any kind, they just take the documents, check through them, take a photo of myself and the wife and then give me a date to return to get the extension stamped in. Incidentally, they only ever did a home visit in the first year, which was a quick ten minute drop by, which I didn't find intrusive in the slightest. -
Thailand Vigilant Amidst 'Disease X' Outbreak in Africa
GroveHillWanderer replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Apparently confirmed as malaria - so not a dire plot by the WHO (or anyone else) to foist a new disease and/or control measures on the public at all (as some people were trying to suggest). Mystery DRC outbreak officially identified as malaria -

UFO's or Drones ? whats going on ?
GroveHillWanderer replied to The Cobra's topic in Off the beaten track
Occam's razor means that the simplest explanation that meets the known facts, is likely to be the correct one. There is no current evidence that these drones are searching for anything. Meanwhile, the simplest explanation I'm aware of (and various journalists have pointed this out) is that the vast majority of the sightings represent commercial, hobbyist and law enforcement drones, civilian aviation (helicopters and planes) or even gas station lights and constellations. -
