amnesty proposed for over-40 foreigners acting half their age

hua hin, THAILAND Following the lead set by the government of Yingluck Shinawatra, a Hua Hin organisation has proposed that an amnesty be declared for all foreigners in the area over the age of forty who have been found guilty of acting like twenty year olds. The group making the proposal is the ‘Forgive All Tourists Sitting Leering On Bar Stools’, or FAT SLOBS, and they have asked for particular leniency for first time visitors who are not aware much of the time that they are so offensive. With many foreigners arriving here from the frozen wastelands of northern Europe and Scandinavia, the merest hint of sunshine even in their own countries will have them stripped to the waist, so their arrival in Thailand can be a mind bending experience. They go on to state that in addition to the effects of the sun, the proximity and quantity of attractive locals who not only do not move away when the foreigners are near but actively engage in conversation and other ‘activities’ with them, is just too much for most to handle, and they immediately regress to imagining they are in their late teens or early twenties. This in turn leads to unbridled drinking and the sort of behaviour that is expected of teenagers on holiday. It does seem that if an amnesty is being considered for convicted criminals over a certain age with less than a three year sentence and whose initials are TS, then the poor old foreigners guilty of falling for Thailand’s ‘charms’ should get a break as well, and not be subjected to endless finger pointing or jokes made about their choice of swimwear. They should, however, be encouraged to learn that stripping to the waist and aggressive behaviour is not acceptable in Thailand, and that goes for the men as well.

Borfai bike attack

2

hua hin, THAILAND A foreign resident has been attacked while driving his motorbike near his home in Borfai on Monday. Witnesses who arrived on the scene shortly after the incident said that the man’s wife was on the back of the bike, and that apparently two masked men, who were presumed to be Thai, had emerged from the side of the road with a large tree limb which they had used to knock the man from the motorbike with, and then ran off. The injured man is a Mr Paul Ayling, and he was taken to hospital soon after with serious head injuries received when falling from the motorbike onto the road. Police have already started an investigation, and apparently have a large number of suspects derived from numerous complaints made against Mr Ayling to them. Mr Ayling was previously involved in an interior design and installation company, Lakeside Interiors, but AWOL understands that this ceased operating a while ago. At press time the latest information on the condition of Mr Ayling was that he had been moved from Hua Hin Hospital, where he had one operation to relieve pressure on his brain, to Bangkok Hospital in Bangkok, where he had had a second operation, and was still in a coma. Mr Ayling’s wife suffered minor injuries in the incident. The couple were apparently due to return to England in a few weeks.

Do you wonder why we say certain things, or what they really mean? Each week we will examine a different word or phrase and tell you how it came about. This week it is.. A skeleton in the closet A secret source of shame, potentially ruinous if exposed, which a person or family makes efforts to conceal. The phrase ‘a skeleton in the closet’ was coined in England in the 19th century. Since then the word closet has become used primarily in England to mean ‘water closet’, i.e. lavatory - a possible hiding place for a skeleton, but not one with much potential. The English now usually use ‘a skeleton in the cupboard’, with ‘skeleton in the closet’ more common in the USA. ‘A skeleton in the closet’ undoubtedly originated as an allusion to an apparently irreproachable person or family having a guilty secret waiting to be uncovered. The closeat-hand domestic imagery of a closet or cupboard gives a sense of the ever-present risk of discovery. What isn’t clear is whether the origin of the phrase lies in fiction or with real life, so to speak, skeletons. The phrase was first used in the early 1800s. The first reference found in print is a figurative one in a piece by William Hendry Stowell, in the UK monthly periodical The Eclectic Review, 1816. The ‘skeleton’ in this case was the desire to keep a hereditary disease secret: Two great sources of distress are the danger of contagion and the apprehension of hereditary diseases. The dread of being the cause of misery to posterity has prevailed over men to conceal the skeleton in the closet... The dramatic device of a hidden body was used widely in the Gothic novels of the Victorian period. Edgar Allen Poe was the master of such tales, for example, this extract from The Black Cat, 1845 : “Gentlemen, I delight to have allayed your suspicions”, and here, through the mere frenzy of bravado, I rapped heavily upon that very portion of the brick-work behind

which stood the corpse of the wife of my bosom. The wall fell bodily. The corpse, already greatly decayed, stood erect before the eyes of the spectators. It has been suggested that the phrase derives from the era of the notorious body snatchers, i.e. prior to 1832, when the UK’s Anatomy Act allowed the more extensive use of corpses for medical research. The theory goes that, in a scenario like that of the concealment of Catholic priests in priest holes in domestic houses in Elizabethan England, doctors would conceal in cupboards the illegally held skeletons they used for teaching. There’s no evidence at all to corroborate that theory. Concealed skeletons are occasionally found walled-up in houses but they are usually those of unwanted infants. The notion of a skeleton in the closet as shorthand for the grim evidence of a murder was widely adopted into the language due to the writings of the popular Victorian author William Makepeace Thackeray. He referred to ‘a skeleton in every house’ in a piece in 1845 and explicitly to ‘skeletons in closets’ in The Newcomes; memoirs of a most respectable family, 1854–55: Some particulars regarding the Newcome family, which will show us that they have a skeleton or two in their closets, as well as their neighbours. Whether Thackeray was alluding to actual skeletons or whether he was responding to the imagination of authors like Poe, we are never likely to know. One person he certainly wasn’t referring to was the 18th/19th century philosopher Jeremy Bentham - despite his being the best-known actual skeleton in a cupboard. Bentham was hardly aiming to keep his skeleton a secret, as he willed that his body be preserved in a wooden cabinet. It is on public display in University College, London. The American expressions ‘come out of the closet’ or simply ‘come out’ began to be used in the 1960s and are, of course, direct follow-ons from ‘a skeleton in the closet’. As far as we’re aware, no one in the UK has declared themselves as gay by coming out of a cupboard.

Aquarius Jan 20 – Feb 18 Despite your upcoming experiences this week, the stars still think checking the backseat of your car before getting in every time is pretty paranoid. Pisces Feb 19 – Mar 20 Congratulations: Before he got a load of you, the provincial coroner really thought he’d seen it all.

Taurus Apr 21 – May 21 You’ve never believed you were the poisoning type, but judging from all the news coverage you’ll get next week, everyone else sure does. Gemini May 22 – June 21 Don’t be surprised when your body dramatically changes next week. After all, why else did you have those synthetic horse testosterone injections? Cancer Jun 22 – Jul 22 The stars will wait patiently while you look up the album art for Ted Nugent’s Cat Scratch Fever, because they want you to know exactly what you look like to them. Leo Jul 23 – Aug 22 It’s good to have a detailed plan in case events take an unexpected turn, but that doesn’t mean you have to go around wiping your fingerprints off everything you own.

Virgo Aug 23 – Sep 22 Saturn is rising in your sign this week, bringing with it all the pain, misery, and failed business opportunities a ringed gas giant can muster. Libra Sep 23 – Oct 23 You’re a huge fan of those cheesy one-liners uttered by antiheroes right after they kill some poor slob, so good news: Your death will not be in vain. Scorpio Oct 24 – Nov 21 You had no idea People magazine had a list of the 100 Most Average Bachelors, but it’s still a disappointment when you don’t quite make the cut. Sagittarius Nov 22 – Dec 21 Take heart: You have your whole life ahead of you. Also, take some advice: It would be wise to think of the life ahead of you in terms of quality and not quantity.

Beer and Ice Cream Diet As we all know, it takes 1 calorie to heat 1 gram of water 1 degree centigrade. Translated into meaningful terms, this means that if you eat a very cold dessert (generally consisting of water in large part), the natural processes which raise the consumed dessert to body temperature during the digestive cycle literally sucks the calories out of the only available source, your body fat. For example, a dessert served and eaten at near 0 degrees C (32.2 deg. F) will in a short time be raised to the normal body temperature of 37 degrees C (98.6 deg. F). For each gram of dessert eaten, that process takes approximately 37 calories as stated above. The average dessert portion is 6 oz, or 168 grams. Therefore, by operation of thermodynamic law, 6,216 calories (1 cal./ gm/deg. x 37 deg. x 168 gms) are extracted from body fat as the dessert’s temperature is normalized. Allowing for the 1,200 latent calories in the dessert, the net calorie loss is approximately 5,000 calories. Obviously, the more cold dessert you eat,the better off you are and the faster you will lose weight, if that is your goal. This process works equally well when drinking very cold beer in frosted glasses. Each ounce of beer contains 16 latent calories, but extracts 1,036 calories (6,216 cal. per 6 oz. portion) in the temperature normalizing process. Thus the net calorie loss per ounce of beer is 1,020 calories. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to calculate that 12,240 calories (12 oz. x 1,020 cal./oz.) are extracted from the body in the process of drinking a can of beer. Frozen desserts, e.g., ice cream, are even more beneficial, since it takes 83 cal./gm to melt them (i.e., raise them to 0 deg. C) and an additional 37 cal./gm to further raise

Unfortunately, for those who eat pizza as an excuse to drink beer, pizza (loaded with latent calories and served above body temperature) induces an opposite effect. But, thankfully, as the astute reader should have already reasoned, the obvious solution is to drink a lot of beer with pizza and follow up immediately with large bowls of ice cream.We could all be thin if we were to adhere religiously to a pizza, beer, and ice cream diet. Happy eating! School of Physics, University of Sydney

yorkshire, england Teenage sprout tester’s provocative poses put wind up consumers Blonde Brussel sprout tester Yasmin Clappison, 19, appears to be trying to do for the humble vegetable what Elle Macpherson did for milk, or what Dervla Kirwan did for M&S Food - sexing it up. She might be a far cry from the man from Del Monte, but a-peeling Yasmin’s provocative poses have certainly got her some attention after her unveiling as an official tester of the vegetable in the run-up to Christmas. The Yorkshire lass will be a key component in making sure her dad’s festive crop hits the spot this winter - traditionally the busiest time for a Brussels business.

14

The farm, near Beverley, is renowned for its produce, which accounts for around five per cent of all Brussel sprouts sold in the UK in the build-up to the holiday season. But any interest in the origins of the brassica, which polarises opinion like no other, had been slight - until now.

Yasmin will be examining all 12 varieties of Brussel produced on the farm - testing bitterness, sweetness, crunch and texture for optimum quality. The problem for the traditionalists who love a Brussel is that they’ve never been the sexiest of vegetables - so they may find Yasmin’s photoshoot to promote her new role hard to swallow. Sporting pink wellies as well as a few lads mag-esque poses, she’s sure to cause a stink in the industry. And no, we couldn’t think of any more puns.

new season The new season will start on Friday 2nd December and will run until the end of June 2012. Two new teams have joined, Maria Bar and Lazy Daze, replacing Sugar Cane and Papillon, while two have been renamed after the bars were taken over, so Dick’s Office is now Hua Hin Missing You, and Thaiwaii is now Garden Girls. The laminated fixture list sent out earlier has some errors on it due to venue clashes not being spotted. The fixtures on the AWOL website (www.awolonline.net) and at huahinpoolbilliard.leaguerepublic.com are the correct ones, as are the ones printed in AWOL every week. If you wish to adjust your copy, please make the following changes: Swap JW Red and Sunset Boulevard for every fixture; and swap the Return Bar v Talk of the Town home and away dates.

Featured Game Sunday, 27 November 2011 la liga Real Madrid v Atletico Madrid, 02:00 Estadio Santiago Bernabéu, Madrid, Spain El Derbi madrileño, or the Madrid derby, has been a pretty one sided affair for the last decade, with Atletico’s last win coming in the 1999/2000 season, with five draws and fourteen wins for Real in that period. This season it is unlikely that the tables will be turned, with Real sitting in top spot with only one defeat and one draw out of their twelve matches, while Atletico sit in ninth with an impressive home record but dismal away form of four defeats and a draw. However derby matches can always hinge on the attitude of the teams - both of them won by the odd goal in five in their last league outings and it seems likely that there will be a few goals in this one. Real to continue their dominance over their city rivals for a little while longer yet we think.

A cross To Bear Hollywood to film ‘Premier League Burning’

shepperton, england HOLLYWOOD is to remake Mississippi Burning set in a variety of Premier League football grounds. Director Alan Parker has cast Jim Broadbent and Dame Judie Dench as two FA officials charged with investigating the disappearance from football of anybody you would not cheerfully punch all day. They have to overcome a wall of silence when visiting grounds like the Emirates or Old Trafford, with the straight-laced Broadbent eventually allowing Dench to bend the rules by using tactics she learned in her former life as a member of the ICF. Parker said: “We want to capture that tumultuous period in history when non-white football players fought for their basic human rights, otherwise known as two weeks ago. “We’ve thrown in lots of period detail,

like Silvio Berlusconi resigning and Johnny still being in the X Factor, while the soundtrack will feature all of those hits from early November, like that one that my granddaughter plays in the car all the time that sounds like a chipmunk being put through a blender.” The PFA has complained that the

London Bar and guesthouse

film typecasts all of its members as bigoted hillbillies with a violent hatred of racial minorities, claiming the true figure is nearer to 60-70% and that foreign players coming home to find a burning cross on their lawn is at its lowest since records began. They also insist the sequence where an unnamed England captain hurls abuse at his own reflection in a tinted mirror and later claims he was asking it for directions to a place called ‘Rucking Trigger’ have been taken out of context. Parker added “In 30 years’ time people will watch this film and ask their parents whether there really was a time when a player would abuse Patrice Evra because of the colour of his skin and not just because he was an arse.”
