scandal over Rajabhakti Park

hua hin, THAILAND Accusations regarding corruption in the construction of the giant statues placed in the recently opened Rajabhakti Park just south of the centre of Hua Hin have been vigorously denied by former Army Chief and current Deputy Defence Minister Udomdej Sitabutr, while at the same time investigators from the Central Investigation Bureau are looking into possible irregularities in the army’s one-billion-baht project. “The project was implemented transparently. There were no irregularities in the work,” Sitabutr was reported as saying Tuesday. “Some people asked for commission fees from the owners of factories which cast the statues,” he said. “When we discovered this, we returned the money to the factory owners, but they decided to donate the money as charity.” This followed comments by deputy police spokesman Maj General Piyaphan Pingmuang who told media on Monday that an investigation was ongoing to determine whether Pol Colonel Kachachart Boondee, who is facing an arrest warrant over lese-majeste charges, was involved in the alleged irregularities in the Rajabhakti Park project. Several news outlets reported that police suspected a military officer of having appropriated 20 to 30 million baht from the project, and one identified Boondee. General Udomdej, who chaired the Rajabhakti Park Foundation when he was army chief, said the park had been developed with the sincere intention of making it a national treasure, but declined to comment on Colonel Boondee, who is said to have illegally crossed into Myanmar from Mae Hong Song on November 1st. Thai authorities have already asked Myanmar to deport him.

weird NEWS UK Tesco is actually hiring a ‘Christmas light untangler’ If you haven’t decided what your true vocation in this world is yet, take a look at this. Tesco has posted a job advert for a Christmas light untangler, and they want the unknotting expert to start work as soon as possible ready for the festive season. The basic idea is that customers bring in their Christmas lights which they can’t actually untangle (we’ve all been there) and expert will get them back to their unravelled original state in store. The main criteria for this modern day festive elf is that they should be able to ‘successfully untangle customers’ Christmas lights neatly, quickly and efficiently and in an orderly fashion.’ Specifically, they must be able to untangle three metres of Christmas lights in under three minutes at the store in Wrexham, north Wales. That’s quite an ask, but if you are good at puzzles, Rubix cubes and the like maybe it could be you. That’s not all, though. You also need to: Be passionate about Christmas, Have the energy and drive to be your best and exceed expectations, Have strong communications skills, Be persistent and patient. And the responsibilities are quite clearly defined. You must manage the Christmas Lights Untangling stand, ‘taking time to listen and help out

wherever you can’. Once you have the lights, you have to check all the bulbs for signs of breakage and handle them all carefully to keep everything in tip-top condition. The requirements in full also involve serving customers with pride and being ‘passionate and knowledgeable about the service you are offering.’ If you were wondering about how much you paid for this skilful craftsmanship, hours are 36 per week and the salary is described simply as ‘competitive’. Get your applications in by November 19. russia Man who nailed his scrotum to Red Square sets fire to Russia’s feared spy agency In Britain, protesters usually wave around placards and shout some (polite) slogans. In Russia, you nail your balls to the ground – and follow that up by setting fire to the headquarters of the Russia’s feared security service, the FSB. Vladimir Putin will NOT be pleased. Pyotr Pavlensky has – perhaps unsurprisingly – been arrested, after he posted a picture of himself next to the burning Lubyanka, with a petrol can in his hand. Pavlensky previously sewed his lips shut in protest at the treatment of the band Pussy Riot. He said in a statement, ‘The FSB acts using a method of uninterrupted terror and maintains power over 146 million people.’

SERVED UP BY...

A section for all you budding etymologists where each week the origin of a word or phrase is investigated. This week it is..... As nice as ninepence Neat, tidy, well-ordered. The variants, ‘as right as ninepence’ and ‘as neat as ninepence’ are just as common as the ‘nice’ version (also, less commonly, ‘as clean as ninepence’ and ‘as grand as ninepence’) and it isn’t clear which came first. There are suggestions that this expression derives from from ‘as nice as ninepins’. In the game of Ninepins (Skittles) the pins are set out in a square. For the game to be fair this must be done neatly and accurately or, in the old parlance, nicely. That derivation is attractive but seems unlikely, as there is no early records of ‘as nice as ninepins’ in print, which we might expect if the ‘ninepence’ version derived from it. The ‘ninepins’ form, in the guise of ‘as smart as ninepins’ isn’t found until the 20th century, so it is reasonable to assume that it is a simple mishearing of the earlier ‘as neat/clean/grand as ninepence’ versions. The earliest known recorded form of the phrase is ‘as neat as ninepence’; the first citation is in James Howell’s English Proverbs, 1659:

“As fine as fippence, as neat as nine pence.” The ‘fippence’ (five pence) here makes it clear that the reference is to money rather than to skittles. For it to appear in a list of sayings viewed as proverbial it must have been in existence for some time before 1659. There was a ninepence coin in circulation in the 16th and 17th centuries, although there was nothing especially neat or nice about it. The rhyming and alliterative style of the citation suggests that the ‘neat’ and ‘nice’ were chosen just for that reason. The form ‘as nice as ninepence’ didn’t arise until recently, in the late 20th century.

Capricorn Dec 22 - Jan 19 You have long held the position that there’s nothing funny about testicular cancer, but due to the terrible, cruel, infantile nature of the human sense of humor, you’re just plain wrong. Aquarius Jan 20 – Feb 18 The ghost of Vic Tayback will appear to you in a dream and tell you he’s disappointed in you, making you feel inadequate and forcing you to find out who Vic Tayback is. Pisces Feb 19 – Mar 20 You will soon be the envy of all the other people in your office, most of whom spend the day wishing they were dead. ARIES Mar 21 - Apr 20 You will receive a mention in an exhaustive New Yorker piece titled “6 Billion To Watch Under 100.”

Taurus Apr 21 – May 21 If someone had told you a week ago that there was something better than sex, you wouldn’t have believed it. This week, however, you will discover sex with other people. Gemini May 22 – June 21 Your relationship has been exciting, fun, and different, but it may be time to turn this guy in for the reward money. Cancer Jun 22 – Jul 22 You could spend hours just watching people, but it’s nothing compared to the time and money that certain people have spent watching you. Leo Jul 23 – Aug 22 Look at it this way: If you were a better engineer, there wouldn’t have been so much exciting car-crash news in the past couple months.

Virgo Aug 23 – Sep 22 Your career may be disappointing, but at least you haven’t been stuck being an anthropomorphized arrangement of random stars for the last umpteenmillion years. Libra Sep 23 – Oct 23 Your thoughtfulness will be much appreciated next Thursday when your friends and family realize you chose a tombstone that’s just the right size to support a Weber Smokey Joe grill. Scorpio Oct 24 – Nov 21 By the time people realize your evil hoax, you’ll be three states away, which might not be far enough to escape the punishment for substituting carob for chocolate. Sagittarius Nov 22 – Dec 21 This would be a good week for you to take control of your life and your destiny, but hey, this is you we’re talking about.

new car A middle-aged frumpy couple return to a Mercedes dealership where the salesman has just sold the car they were interested in to a beautiful, leggy, busty blonde. “I thought you said you would hold that car till we raised the £75,000 asking price,” said the man. “Yet I just heard you close the deal for £65, 000 to the lovely young lady there. You insisted there could be no discount on this model.” “Well, what can I tell you? She had the ready cash and, just look at her, how could I resist?” replied the grinning salesman. Just then the young woman approached the middle-aged couple and gave them the keys. “There you go,” she said. “I told you I would get this plonker to reduce it.

and back Mags Meanderings: From Som Tam To Mushy Peas happy pineapple day! November 13th is Tinned Pineapple Anniversary Day. You just couldn’t make it up. In fact the 13th is thought to be the day in 1895 when the worlds’ first canned pineapples were shipped out of Hawaii, where the worlds’ first pineapple canning factory had opened in 1892. In reality the shipment was more likely to have been of the first successfully canned pineapple, and no one seems to know where it was bound. But as far as anniversarys go it’s still 120 years since the world found the ideal accompaniment to gammon. Around the same time a canning factory was also opened in Malaya, although Hawaii remained the biggest producer until the 1990’s, having become home to James Doles’ first pineapple plantation in 1901. Dole is a name worth looking at further, but first a little more background on the pineapple. Thought to be native to South America, it was Christopher Columbus who discovered the fruit while on his travels, and took some home to Spain in the 1600’s. He was fortunate that once picked the pineapple, unlike bananas, stops ripening. Which meant that his discovery was very well received, particularly amongst Royalty and the seriously rich. The popularity of the pineapple spread through the wealthier European countries, and in 1675 royal gardener John Rose was the first person to grow a pineapple in Britain, which he presented to his boss, King Charles 2nd. By the 1700’s the colour and appearance of the fruit had made it a symbol of wealth and power. Carvings of pineapples adorned buildings. Just one fruit could cost up to 8,000 dollars in todays money, and they were hired as centrepieces for society parties. If you had a pineapple you had truly arrived.

It is all very strange to imagine today, when in a good season they sell for 10 baht on the sois. (I’m allowing for inflation - 10 years ago it was 5 baht.) Back to James Dole. Known as the King of the Pineapple, his empire spread from Hawaii to Thailand, with the plantation just down the road from you folk in Hua Hin, as well as those in Chumphon and Rayong. But it was the Thai Pineapple Canning Industry Corporation Limited thankfully known as TPC - which opened Thailands’ first processing factory in 1962 in Pranburi. By 1978 TPC had grown through mergers and opened its’ second site in Rayong, and now operates more than 23 factories in Thailand, which overtook Hawaii as the worlds’ largest exporter of pineapple products. Here in England though it is a shame to think that many people - unlike Charles 2nd - are still only familiar with pineapple from a can. Of course the real thing is often available now, but looks much more daunting to tackle than a simple tin can. And even when people do pluck up the courage to cut into the imported fruit, somehow it just doesn’t taste the same as those carefully cut segments, bristling with toothpicks, which are presented in Thai eateries at the end of meal.

There will be memories of the European Championship Finals in 1992 held in Sweden where these two were drawn in the same group, and ultimately Sweden got to the semi-finals (losing to Germany) while Denmark beat the Germans in the final, the best ever performance by both teams in the history of the competition. Denmark probably have slightly the upper hand this time as they play away first, but we think Sweden have the stronger team; however playoffs are notoriously nervy afairs and this really could go either way. One thing is for sure though is that there will be plenty of sore heads in Hua Hin the following day(s) among the large expat Scandanavian fraternity! fixtures

watching the defectives Sherwood and Rodgers form crime fighting duo england Following his failed singles bar partnership with Stuart Lancaster, Brendan Rodgers has now teamed up with sacked Aston Villa manager Tim Sherwood to form a detective agency. Sherwood and Rodgers will drive around the country solving mysteries, they confirmed yesterday. The duo launched the detective agency called ‘Rodwood’, promising to deliver their special brand of justice wherever they are needed. Rodgers said: “Each week I will have three envelopes, one of which will contain the name of the criminal we’re after and the other two will have a series of excuses why we didn’t catch them. “We’re hoping for a 61% conviction rate, which is enough to put you in the top four of crimefighting duos alongside your Dalziel & Pascoes and your Rosemary & Thymes.”

Above: Villains beware! Rodwood are after you.

For their first case, a series of small bandstand fires in a Carlisle park, Rodgers has asked the local authority for a budget of sixty million pounds to assemble a team of promising young detectives from across Europe, as well as Joe Allen. Sherwood said: “Tim Sherwood will get results because Tim Sherwood does not know the meaning of the word ‘failure’, despite the numerous chances Tim Sherwood has recently had to find out.” Rumours that a film crew will be following the pair around in the hope of making a new comedy TV series have been vigorously denied by their lawyers, Dewey, Cheatham and Howe, although they did confirm that they are in discussions for David Moyes to join the team after his sudden departure from Real Sociedad.
