Kamala Harris Defends Policy Stance in Heated Fox News Interview
Perhaps not being an American you don’t understand,an elected official has no choice but to follow the law that’s the job,we are not a dictatorship America is not ruled by decree we are governed by law.I know it’s much simpler to declare and dictate that’s not our system.Harris handeled herself just fine in such a hostile environment I’d like to see trump do the same. Except he’s hiding he knows he would be excoriated big time. -

British yoga teacher stranded in Bangkok airport over passport tear
Yes, pretty good airport at New Delhi, and Mumbai, although I haven't been through there in a while. Its just they are run by Indians who seen to enjoy making hard work of things. Addis Ababa is fun as well. My ticket from BKK had the correct departure gate in Addis Ababa but they had the wrong one in their departure board. -

US Retirement system equal to Kazakhstan? Really?
Nobody who works pays 50% tax on earnings. That for super rich and even them knows loop holes to get half or more back. US used to be cheap to live, like when I moved there in 1979. Way better than any country in the EU. Not so any more. And the way it's getting worse fast is alarming. Like Florida now - no insurance for houses! They are worthless. -

Pre-paid Credit Card
A few months ago I noticed that SCB was offering a pre-payed "credit" card (MC or Visa I think) that they advertised as "guaranteed" to work anywhere in the world, as "good as cash". This is different from a card that is secured by a fixed account deposit that you cannot touch (I have a two of these that have worked fine locally for years). I interpreted this to mean that if you are Denmark or Upper Volta or wherever then "approval' for a purchase is done locally -- they just check if you have that amount of funds still available on the card. It does not have to go back through the normal computer approval cycle. The "normal" cycle (like with the fixed-account secured cards) which goes back thorough the Thai bank and then to a MC/Visa clearing algorithm probably hosted in India. The "normal" approval cycle can fail because the charge (in, say, Upper Volta) is not consistent with your charging history as well as other reasons. At least this is my understanding. I am thinking that my next trip to the US next year I will get one of these pre-paid cards as a safety measure in case my other cards don't work. -

If Trump is re-elected what does it say about the I.Q of the average American?
It's got to be higher than when they elected a sleazy, corrupt old man with dementia, simply because he wasn't Donald Trump.- 1

I think the taxi either just picked someone up and buy lookifbrwsr view mirror and the victim probably walked across without due care and attention or maybe even ran across lokkog at his trainers probably did but still no excuse from the driver striking some warrants a stop on a crossing or not -

Poisoned justice: CSD to wrap up cyanide serial killer cases
The Crime Suppression Division (CSD) officers reported today that they would submit the summary of the 14 cases that rocked Thailand involving the cyanide serial killer. The CSD revealed today, October 17, that they would present the summary to the prosecutor by the end of October. The suspect is expected to be sentenced for one major case in November. The suspect in the well-known Thai case, Sararat “Am” Rangsiwuthaporn, also known as Am Cyanide, is currently imprisoned at the Central Women’s Correctional Institution in Bangkok, facing accusations of 14 murders and 1 attempted murder. The serial killings came to light after the family of Siriporn “Koy” Khanwong grew suspicious about the cause of her death and suspected Sararat’s involvement. Koy was captured on CCTV collapsing at a pier within a temple in the central province of Ratchaburi and later died. Koy’s missing car and valuables, together with the discovery of cyanide in her system, strengthened the family’s suspicions of foul play. A woman resembling Sararat was also spotted on security camera footage. Following Koy’s case, more families came forward seeking justice, claiming Sararat was involved in the deaths of their relatives. Cyanide was found in the systems of almost all the victims. One woman reported that she was also targeted by Sararat but managed to survive the poisoning. Some 15 victims were reported with only one survivor. All the victims had financial connections with Sararat—some were her debtors, some participated in her kitty fund, and others were involved in business dealings with her. Police examined multiple pieces of evidence and questioned more than 900 people. Only Koy’s case was submitted to the court, while the other 14 cases remain under investigation. As it stands, Sararat is still legally innocent, as the court has not yet concluded its deliberations or issued a verdict. Recently, Sararat’s parents threatened to take legal action against anyone or any media outlet referring to their daughter as Am Cyanide, asserting that she is still presumed innocent. The Commander of the Royal Thai Police (RTP), Kittirat Phanphet, attended a meeting on the case at the CSD office today, where officers reportedly agreed that Sararat was guilty of all the cases. They plan to review all the evidence and related documents before submitting the case summaries to the court for further proceedings. As for Koy’s case, which is already under court consideration, Sararat is required to attend a hearing on November 20 to hear the sentencing.

Kamala Harris Defends Policy Stance in Heated Fox News Interview
I think that's a fair enough assessment. It was not a good performance but not as catastrophic as some say. I don't think many people thought "wow, I'm going with Kamala" as a result. Where I don't agree is that everyone has made up their minds. Aggregate is around 3.5% of the voting population. They can swing any battleground state. There's an even bigger coterie of Silent Trump voters. But I maintain by far the biggest coterie of voters are those who cannot stand Trump. If Harris wins this election it will be anti-trump hatred that hands her the White House.
