If their phones or tablets have a mini hdmi port then the easiest way is to get a mini hdmi to hdmi cable and plug em in, easy peasy.

And to add to the level of stupidity that has been displayed up to now. The reason the judge was acting so disgracefully was that she reportedly did not take her medication.

I guess the only (potential) silver lining here is that her days as a judge are surely over now

Supremely qualified I'd have thought.

In my day a suit was worn, end of a meal quiet chat, glass of port with a cigar....

Really sorry if you young guys never experienced that stuff....Glad I did...

Well I am a bit grand- had port laid down for when I was 21. Things have moved on, we opened the port- was not so good.

I'm NOT asking for a suit, black tie outfit etc.

ALL I'm asking that if people go out to a reasonably smart restaurant - they wash and don't wear a Singha vest.

Weeeeeeeeeeeeell, watch some Hercule Poirot episodes where they have nailed correct attire and behaviour....I lived through that error and have very fond memories..

Sadly now folk look at a nice restaurant as a posh McDonald's, they ain't got a clue what dining is about.....

"I lived through that error"

Freudian slip?

Assuming this eatery is in Pattaya in which case you have to get used to it as it is common behavior with Pattayas quality tourists.

No I don't have to get used to it- a simple dress code would make a difference - you think that some stinking guy would be acceptable in some of the better hotels and restaurants- no

Yeah you do have to get used to it, or stay in.

Good man, hope he got a good reward off the Iranian.

To call Fox a news outlet is an affront to any thinking human being. So bad are they that they make RT look good.

RT is good.

In this day and age, only the most backward and uncivilised countries have the death penalty.

In this day and age, the most forward looking and civilised countries have the death penalty and they should actively promote its use around the world.

You're in good company with Saudi Arabia, Iran, China, savage!

There's a good general?

animal cruelty has no place in civilised society and, the truth is, Thailand does not consider animal rights high on any agenda of theirs

Not just the Thais, some circuses including western ones treat them the same.

In this day and age, only the most backward and uncivilised countries have the death penalty.

You know sometimes you have to just give someone their due....

Creating a false - for profit industry and making 100's of millions of dollars out of thin air....

Isn't that the banks?

1,052 people?

Nooooooooooooo!!! the new series of Vikings starts feb18th.

You can't handle the truth.

No problem with fox, no truth on there to cloud Murdoch's agenda.

It could be worse. It could be BBC or Sky News they are so bias you just see the garbage they put out.

Biased? They just report the mainstream liberal point of view.

you do of course mean the mainstream right wing point of view

"but I haven't caught any Hannity, Van Susteren, Hume, Smith, Kelly, Geraldo or O'Reilly yet"

Why would you want to?

"Fair and Balanced"

Yuk! not for me, soi dog foundation and the gibbons is all Phuket is to me.

"He was singing and shouting, and those in the area could not fully understand what he was saying."

Could have been a late Christmas carol ?

Nuh....probably from Yorkshire and singing "On Ilkly moor bar 'tat."

Where's that?

Pitiful! The one finger salute usually works better.

Yes more universal in nature. Another Canadian invention I think.

Actually it's not. The 1 finger salute comes from the English. During one of their wars with the French, the French vowed to cut off the middle finger of all English archers, so they couldn't use their longbows. The French lost, and the English proudly displayed the fact that they still had their middle finger.

Your history lesson for the day.

Actually that's the alleged origin of the "V" sign.

A commonly repeated legend claims that the two-fingered salute or V sign derives from a gesture made by longbowmen fighting in the English and Welsh^[26] archers at the Battle of Agincourt (1415) during the Hundred Years' War, but no historical primary sources support this contention.^[27]

The first unambiguous evidence of the use of the insulting V sign in England dates to 1901, when a worker outside Parkgate ironworks in Rotherham used the gesture (captured on the film) to indicate that he did not like being filmed.^[28] Peter Opie interviewed children in the 1950s and observed in The Lore and Language of Schoolchildren that the much older thumbing of the nose (cock-a-snook) had been replaced by the V sign as the most common insulting gesture used in the playground.^[28]

Between 1975 and 1977 a group of anthropologists including Desmond Morris studied the history and spread of European gestures and found the rude version of the V-sign to be basically unknown outside the British Isles. In his Gestures: Their Origins and Distribution, published in 1979, Morris discussed various possible origins of this sign but came to no definite conclusion:

because of the strong taboo associated with the gesture (its public use has often been heavily penalised). As a result, there is a tendency to shy away from discussing it in detail. It is "known to be dirty" and is passed on from generation to generation by people who simply accept it as a recognised obscenity without bothering to analyse it... Several of the rival claims are equally appealing. The truth is that we will probably never know...^[28]

So a bloke who stole a nation at gunpoint is calling somebody who flogged land cheap to a relative a criminal, the ultimate "pot calling kettle black".

Fighting straight after sex? He must have been a rubbish lover LOL

Well it seems her plan worked well, not sure about yours.

I think the time has come for the Thais to show a large scale protest of civil disobedience. If thousands, or 10's or 100's of thousands of people came out in protest, what could the junta do? Far too many to arrest. Can't shoot them. Pretty much anything the junta would do to suppress them would result in massive international condemnation (resulting in massive loss of face for the junta).

Of course the junta could play the Burma card, close the borders of the country and slaughter the protestors and plunge Thailand in a Burma style repressive military regime.

"can't shoot them", Oh really! Since when?
