cigarettes & alcohol watch out for retailers taking advantage of tax hike

hua hin, THAILAND Tax rates on liquor and cigarettes were increased in Thailand this week, and already reports have been emerging that unscrupulous retailers and other outlets across the country have taken advantage to hike their prices by a lot more than they should. While there is a knock-on effect between the various taxes that are payable on these items, the only things that should be affected are as follows: White spirits up from 120 baht to 150 baht per litre of 100% alcohol content; Blended spirits up from 300 baht to 350 baht per litre of 100% alcohol content; Brandy up from 48% to 50% by value; Cigarette excise taxes up from 85% to 87%. Beer, imported whisky and wine are completely unaffected by these announcements. Experts estimate that the new prices per-bottle of white spirits such as Lao Khao, which is consumed mostly by low-income earners, should be around 5 to 8 baht more, and not more than 10 baht. The major brands of blended spirits to be affected will be Blend 258, a local brand which is the market leader, along with Hong Thong, Mekong, and Sangsom. These are likely to rise by between 15 and 20 baht per bottle, while a slightly lower increase should be seen on brandy. Officials estimate that store prices for Marlboro cigarettes should increase by eight baht per pack, six baht for Mild Seven cigarettes and six baht for Krong Thip cigarettes. Imported cigarettes from China could rise in price by as much as 20 baht per pack, after factoring in the increase on other taxes such as value-added taxes and import taxes, officials said. If you encounter any excessive profiteering from the tax changes, or have any other comments or opinions, why not share them on the AWOL Forum? Go to www.awolonline.net/forum to vent your spleen!

DRIVING YOU MAD

TIPS FOR ROAD USERS IN THAILAND

Welcome to an occasional column offering advice and tips for anyone using the roads in Thailand. Some of them will be serious, others somewhat tongue in cheek, but all of them are borne out of experience. This week covers some of the road rules and regulations that are generally ignored by both road users and police. First up is the rule that you should always give way to oncoming traffic when you are entering from a side street. Motorcycles in particular completely disregard this, but all vehicles can be seen practising this. You may be tempted to check if your vehicle has some sort of ‘cloaking device’ on these occasions because often the drivers will look straight at you and still pull out! Pedestrians are also guilty of this, and this behaviour is often explained by many as a Bhuddist thing - a fatalistic approach of ‘whatever will be, will be’. However if you hit such a road user, because they would be in front of you it is likely to be deemed at least partially your fault by police and insurance companies. Our second widely flaunted rule, that can catch even the most experienced driver out, is the one that says you must drive the same way as the other traffic on your side of the road or on a one way street.

Again motorcycles are the main culprits here, and there appears to be an unwritten rule that anyone riding a motorbike can get away with anything except riding without a crash helmet! Other vehicles also commit this offence though, and it is particularly alarming when you are turning onto a busy road, looking only to your right at the oncoming traffic, waiting for a gap. When your chance comes you accelerate onto the road to join the flow of traffic only to be confronted by someone coming in the opposite direction! Our final flaunt this week is indicators, which should be to inform other vehicles when you are turning, or pulling in. WRONG! We are not sure how drivers here perceive them to be honest, but more often than not, when they are used it appears as if a large number of vehicles are mis-wired, signalling right then turning left (or vice versa), using the hazard warning of all of them flashing to indicate going straight on, and other incorrect usages. If someone is signalling a turn, don’t believe they are until they actually do, and if someone is not signalling, don’t believe they won’t until they don’t!

This week it is... .Phrases from the Bible (part 2) The King James Version of the Bible has been enormously influential in the development of the English language. It ranks with the complete works of Shakespeare and the Oxford English Dictionary as one of the cornerstones of the recorded language. After Shakespeare, the King James, or Authorized, Version of the Bible is the most common source of phrases in English. Here is the second part of the many phrases that originated in the Bible (most, but not all from the King James Version): An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth As old as Methuselah As old as the hills As white as snow As you sow so shall you reap Ashes to ashes dust to dust At his wits end Baptism of fire Be fruitful and multiply Beat swords into ploughshares

hawaii, usa Sun is too round, say scientists A mystery surrounds the shape of the Sun - it is just too perfectly round, scientists have said. In fact the Sun turns out to be one of the roundest objects ever measured. Scaled down to the size of a beach ball, the difference between the Sun’s widest and narrowest diameters would be far less than the width of a human hair. For as long as we’ve bothered to care about heavenly bodies other than our own, we’ve thought that the size of the Sun varies throughout its 11-year solar cycles. Intense magnetic forces, the theory went, rendered it as malleable as a sturdy stress ball. That was a good theory, backed up by decades of data. It’s also totally wrong. What Jeffrey Kuhn and his team at the University of Hawaii in Pukalani have discovered, in fact, is that the Sun’s shape doesn’t vary at all. It’s rounder than we thought, sure, and flatter—if you can reconcile those two in your brain—but it’s also terrifically consistent. As Kuhn explained to Space: “The peculiar fact that the sun is slightly too round to agree with our understanding of its rotation is also an important clue in a longstanding mystery,” Kuhn said. “The fact that it is too round means that there are other forces at work making this round shape. We’ve probably misunderstood how the gas turbulence in the sun works, or how the sun organizes the magnetism that we can only see at the surface. Finding problems in our theories is always more exciting than not, since this is the only way we learn more.” The more we know about the Sun, the more we know about how it affects the Earth. The most fun part of all of this, though, might be how we finally figured out our mistake. The researchers called on data from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory, which has the distinct advantage of being in space. It turns out that earthbound measurements have been distorted by our atmosphere the whole time. florida, usa Businessman sells his life on eBay for £2.2million Businessman Shane Butcher wants to start a new life – so he’s selling his old one on eBay for £2.2million. The multi-millionaire is offloading his chain of computer game shops, two waterfront homes, three supercars and even his pet dog. He plans to use the money to go travelling with his wife before returning to Florida to set up a new enterprise. The offer has already racked up more than 45,000 hits

on the popular auction website. Mr Butcher, from Tampa Bay, Florida, said: ‘I am selling my American Dream on eBay. ‘I will assist the buyer with ownership transfer paperwork. You will be taught the ins and outs of the business. You will be granted access to all distributors and trade secrets.’ The 29-year-old has uploaded an accompanying video on to YouTube featuring a guided tour of his up-for-grabs home. His offer seems to have caught the imagination of the public, with one user on the video-sharing website commenting: ‘Dude! You’re awesome! Good luck.’ While another added: ‘I don’t blame you. You have created a successful business and have made it big … Good luck with the sale and whatever you do next!’ Despite his 100 per cent positive feedback on the site, there have not yet been any bids for Mr Butcher’s American Dream. Huludao city, china Bikini parade sets new Guinness World Record in China A group of body confident women in China left little to the imagination on their way to setting a new Guinness World Record for the largest ever bikini parade. Traffic came to a halt in Huludao city, Liaoning Province, over the weekend, as more than 1,000 women marched to make history. The group of women, aged up to 70, paraded for nearly two hours before their efforts were officially ratified by Guinness World Record officials. Crowds lined the streets to watch the parade as performers kept them entertained with an array of dance routines throughout the street carnival. Organisers held the event as part of the annual China International Beach & Bikini Culture Exposition held across three days. The event easily eclipsed a previous record set by 450 women in Panama City, Florida earlier this year. Earlier this year, organisers of another world record bikini parade attempt in Madison Lake, Minnesota, were left red-faced when only an itsy-bitsy teeny-weeny number of participants turned up. Organisers had predicted they would easily break the world record, however well publicised opposition from Madison Lake City Council meant the attempt was blighted by poor attendance figures.

Eat in or Takeaway 081 455 5298 Capricorn Dec 22 - Jan 19 You’ll soon owe the local police chief, resident fire marshal, and head zookeeper a rather large apology. Aquarius Jan 20 – Feb 18 Despite their best efforts, rescue workers will fail to pull you out from beneath hundreds of pounds of stored fat this week. Pisces Feb 19 – Mar 20 The stars indicate that—hoo, boy—that’s definitely going to hurt. Aries Mar 21 – Apr 20 Four will be killed, 12 injured, and nearly 50 molested this week after your unconscious escapes.

Taurus Apr 21 – May 21 Will you finally get that big job promotion? Is a whirlwind romance in the cards for you? Tune in to Taurus next week for all the answers and more! Gemini May 22 – June 21 The training wheels will soon come off your bike, as will both regular wheels, the front and back brakes, each handlebar, and, finally, you. Cancer Jun 22 – Jul 22 Red-bellied trout are known for traveling halfway across the country in search of a mate, but it’s still a bit of a surprise when hundreds of them arrive at your doorstep. Leo Jul 23 – Aug 22 Don’t be afraid to ask loved ones for help this week. After all, they expect nothing less from a loser like you.

Virgo Aug 23 – Sep 22 You always knew the day would come when the machines would rise up and take over the world, but never did you imagine it’d be so convenient. Libra Sep 23 – Oct 23 After years of quiet introspection, you’ll finally come out of your shell this week, disgusting everyone with your squirming, mucus-covered frame. Scorpio Oct 24 – Nov 21 More and more, you’re beginning to suspect you’re just around to help move the plot forward. Sagittarius Nov 22 – Dec 21 Remember to count your blessings this week, as it’s the last time you’ll be able to perform mental arithmetic for months to come.

Featured Game Sunday 19th August 2012 PREMIER LEAGUE Norwich v QPR 21:00 Carrow Road, Norwich, England Both of these sides will be low on confidence after being spanked in their first game by Swansea and Fulham respectively. The chances are then that they will have been working on the defensive aspect of their games all week, which could lead this to being a low scoring affair. However QPR have been very active in the transfer market and on paper at least look to have a better squad, and as this gels we think they will be a decent side. Consequently we think the Canaries will suffer another defeat and a long hard season.

Howard Webb completes shock move to Man City

manchester, england

Former Man United referee Howard Webb has completed his controversial move to local rivals Man City. Webb completed the shock move on Saturday, and made his debut in yesterday’s game against newly-promoted Southampton. The former Old Trafford crowd-favourite made an immediate impact as he earned his new club a penalty, which was saved by Saint’s keeper Kelvin Davies after a tame spot-kick from David Silva. However, it wasn’t long before Webb’s trickery led to City taking the lead. A lofted ball over the top found Carlos Tevez, and Webb skillfully waved away appeals for offside to allow the Argentinian to fire home. Despite an impressive first-half performance, Webb was at fault for Southampton’s equaliser after he showed an uncharacteristic lack of concentration in which he failed to book Ricky Lambert for a blatant attempt on goal. A surprised Lambert took advantage of the

mistake and kept his cool to slot the ball into the net. Things went from bad to worse for Webb as he allowed Southampton’s players to remain on the pitch, leading to Steven Davis firing Southampton into a surprise lead. Webb had his team-mates to thank as goals from Edin Dzeko and Samir Nasri gave City a winning start to the season. Man City boss Roberto Mancini was full of praise for Webb after the match. “I thought Howard was excellent in the firsthalf,” he said. “He tired in the second-half, but I think that was down to a lack of match fixness….. fitness, I meant fitness.”
