Ceiling collapse at Wat Pa Na Don leaves monks in shock
A ceiling collapse at Wat Pa Na Don in Udon Thani left monks and devotees in shock. The incident, which occurred while monks were performing a religious ceremony, resulted in no injuries but significant damage to the ceiling. The collapse happened during a gathering of monks and devotees at Wat Pa Na Don, located in Nong Na Kham, Mueang district, Udon Thani. As the monks were engaged in a ceremony, the ceiling of the sermon hall suddenly gave way, causing everyone present to run for their lives. Fortunately, no one was injured, but the ceiling suffered extensive damage. After the incident, monks and villagers worked together to clear the debris and plan for the installation of a new, more durable ceiling. The collapse was attributed to the accumulation of pigeon droppings under the ceiling, which weighed over 1 tonne. The weight became too much for the ceiling to bear, leading to its collapse. Fortunately, no injuries were reported. Upon revisiting the temple, it was observed that the collapsed ceiling had not been fully cleaned. Pigeon droppings and feathers were still scattered on the floor among the broken ceiling pieces. Several pigeons were seen perched on the roof’s steel frame, seemingly unbothered by the incident. Locals had already collected the pigeon droppings to use as fertiliser for their fields. Meanwhile, preparations were underway for an upcoming Kathina ceremony from October 26 to October 27, although some villagers were hesitant to sit near the sermon hall for fear of another collapse. The 62 year old abbot of Wat Pa Na Don, Uthai Kamchalee recounted the terrifying moment when the ceiling fell. He described how the incident occurred while devotees were offering donations for the Kathina ceremony. Ceiling collapse Monks and devotees were discussing the event and reciting prayers when pigeons flying under the roof started pecking and fighting, leading to the ceiling’s collapse. The collapse began in the centre of the hall and quickly spread to where the monks were seated. The loud crash prompted everyone to flee in panic. One devotee sustained a minor forehead injury, but the five monks present were unharmed. The abbot mentioned that they would wait until after the Kathina ceremony to assess the funds available for repairs, estimating that the reconstruction would cost at least 200,000 baht (US$5,965). He noted that pigeons had entered the space through a hole in the roof’s gable, reported KhaoSod. This was the first time he had experienced such an incident, having only seen similar events in the news. He believed that the temple’s guardian spirits had caused the ceiling to collapse before the Kathina ceremony to prevent a more tragic outcome. He shuddered to think of the injuries that could have occurred if the ceiling had collapsed during the ceremony. By Bright Choomanee Picture courtesy of KhaoSod Source: The Thaiger -- 2024-10-22 -

Trump Crumbles When Pressed on Economic Policy in Tense Interview
Data on the audience? Wasn’t it the economics club of Chicago? As a group, those people probably have a better grip on economics than the typical man on the street. Of course, Chicago is the home of its own school of economics, so to speak. A conservative bunch out of the University of Chicago. -

Swing voters:Migrants swelled countys population by 30%, everybody falling behind in school
Can you provide a quote of Trump claiming he weighs 215? If you can, I will answer, but you can't, because you made it up. Do you believe Harris worked at McDonald's? Do you believe Walz was at the Tiananmen Square massacre? Do you support mass migration? Can you answer without deflecting the questions? -

Filipino pickpockets in Bangkok get ‘Thai’d up by the cops
Thai police apprehended a group of Filipino pickpockets targeting tourists in a prominent hotel in the Phaya Thai area of Bangkok. The suspects are now facing charges for their night-time theft activities. The arrest occurred yesterday, October 21 at approximately 4pm, led by Police Major General Witwat Chinkam, along with other high-ranking officials from Thonglor Police Station. Seven Filipino suspects, aged between 28 and 67 years old, were detained in rooms 202, 204, 211, and 303 of a well-known hotel in the Sam Sen Nai subdistrict of Phaya Thai, Bangkok. The police also recovered the clothing worn by the suspects during their alleged crimes. Officers from Thonglor Police Station had been alerted to the presence of a foreign pickpocket gang targeting the bustling Sukhumvit and Asoke business districts. Following a complaint from a South Korean man who reported being targeted by a pickpocketing gang at Sukhumvit Soi 33 in Watthana district around 6.40pm on October 16, the investigation team promptly reviewed CCTV footage from the area and identified the suspects as Filipinos, said a police spokesperson. “We received reports of a foreign gang involved in pickpocketing around the Sukhumvit and Asoke areas, especially in business-heavy zones. Our investigation led us to identify the suspects and their hideout in a Phaya Thai hotel.” Following their crimes, the suspects would reportedly retreat to their hotel rooms in Phaya Thai. Acting on this information, the investigation team from Thonglor Police Station conducted a thorough search of the hotel, leading to the successful capture of the suspects, reported KhaoSod. Once apprehended, the suspects were found with the clothing they allegedly wore during the pickpocketing incidents. The police immediately transferred them, along with the evidence, to Thonglor Police Station for further legal proceedings.
