Putin's already been quoted as saying Assad wasn't critical to their mission.  That was several years ago.  I'll try to find the article.

That's interesting. Wonder what Putin wants for that concession...

Problem still exists

Thailand chief prosecutor warns fugitives: "We're coming for you!"

however, just around the bend: brake failure.

How does one actually become an abbot of a Thai temple? Election? Appointed? Bribe? Inherit?

what's the usual response to this?

ah, yes: 500 baht fine and become a monk..., hmm..., been there done that.

There are as many different personalities as there are people.

My question is...what is an "SO"? 

Superior Officer

Whether this is the best way to stop a rider who is doing a runner is up for debate. What gets my goat is the police chief's comments, a brazen liar who expects his word to be believed against all evidence.

Pheu Thai has many key questions to ponder and one of them is how it would enter the race – for the nation’s and its own sake.

None of the parties needed to ponder such a moral dilemma for more than a second: publicly, it's always for the sake of the nation - privately, screw the nation

If he had just bought the damn things without shooting off his big mouth to the press..., but they can't help it, they have to be corrupt and vain at the same time.

Nope, it's tradition.

Yep, just look at them. I wouldn't be surprised if it took 3 years for one of them dinosaurs to come back from a pee break...

“They will also be divided into clusters to support regional competitiveness (and to facilitate clusterf*cks)."

looks like the government has spread wrong information via public media and websites, and has therefore broken it's own computer crime laws. It also confused the Thai people with false statements. If anyone else but the government had been doing this, they would be in jail already.
