  1. Lads, on a serious note, I need everyone to wish me luck. I have a meeting at the bank later and if it’s a success, I will be out of debt and own everything I have now.

    I’m so excited I can barely put on my ski mask…

  2. The hardy athletes of the annual Dutch “headwind cycle championships” race have finally met their match, as organisers said Storm Ciaran’s gale-force winds was too much even for their pedal power.

    Every year, competitors battle against head-on gusts over the 8.5-kilometre (5.3-mile) Oosterscheldekering storm surge barrier in the western Netherlands, riding old-fashioned bikes with no gears and back-pedal brakes.

    The championships only take place if the wind registers more than a moderate gale seven on the Beaufort Scale (up to 61 kilometres per hour).

    But Storm Ciaran’s winds have proved a different prospect altogether as it lashes northern Europe with winds registered near 200 kilometres per hour in France.

    “Unfortunately the wind has become so strong as the day has gone on that we cannot start. The safety of everyone is the main priority,” organisers said in a statement.

    “We made this decision with pain in our hearts.”...

  3. Four Hua Kwang station police officers involved in extorting a Taiwanese actress Charlene An near Chinese Embassy in January were sentenced by the criminal court on Wednesday, November 8, to 5 years in prison. The court also ordered the four defendants to jointly return 27,000 baht. Two officers were found not guilty.

    Six Huai Khwang policemen were detained by the Criminal Court’s order on February 2, 2023, after being accused of extortion against Taiwanese actress Charlene An and three male friends...

  4. You poor bastard, I hope you've now got some sort of immunity now.

    Mind you, every thing is a bell curve.

    It could be that you are at one end of the bell curve, in the "more susceptible" range.

    Whereas, MLG is the kind of girl who can find some old pla ra, dried up in an open jar, in the back of a cupboard from 8 years ago, scrape it out into her Tam Mahk Houng (Som Tam) and after eating it, feel positively radiant.

     

  5. On November 7th, 2023, Mr. Anutin Charnvirakul, the Deputy Prime Minister, clarified to Thai national media about the extension of opening service hours of entertainment districts to 4 AM in four pilot provinces.

    At present, the Ministry of Interior is in the process of reviewing and listening to various opinions and complaints from locals and owners of entertainment venues before presenting them to the cabinet, said Anutin.

    Anutin apologized for misleading information from the previous statement that the extended-hour services will not cover alcohol sales until 4 AMwhich is incorrect. He meant to mention service establishments that are similar to entertainment venues that could provide alcoholic beverages until midnight such as late-night restaurants, karaoke, and similar businesses. Qualified entertainment venues in approved, legal, entertainment zones would be allowed to serve alcoholic beverages until 4AM.

    Furthermore, entertainment services in hotels in four pilot provinces being Chonburi, Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and Phuket, can provide full services until 4 AM.

    Anutin publicly stated that further details on the extended-hour services and related information would later be given by the Director General of the Department of Provincial Administration. However, the policy from the Thai Prime Minister will still be effective on December 15th, 2023.

    Meanwhile, the Pattaya Mayor has confirmed that currently legal entertainment zones will participate in the 4AM program effective from December 15th. However, proposals to extend the zones to Jomtien, Naklua, and Easy Pattaya will have to wait until next year.

    North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un "decided to flex his muscles" and ordered 2,400 shells to be fired at a deserted island in 2020.

    "Of those 2,400 shells, only 400 reached the island. And of those 400, about 80 exploded. So now we take the quality of Korean production [into consideration], 4% of the shells fired actually exploded where they were supposed to. Now, we multiply one million by 4%, and we get what kind of real help comrade Un was able to give comrade Putin," Dykyi explained, suggesting that North Korea only provided Russia with about 40,000 working shells.

    Dykyi suggested that the Pyongyang instructors may have come along with the shells because "Russian artillerymen may simply be afraid to use these ‘masterpieces of the neighboring defense industr’y because it is not known how many of them exploded right in the guns...
