But is that due to rising sea levels, or giant mosquitos?
Actually it was California, Florida insurance is merely getting prohibitively expensive 2x-3x the amount normally paid. I don't live there so I don't care, just something I saw on Youtube.

Looks like the prosecution's case is falling apart already.
I suppose it comes down to whether the jury is in fact unbiased. If in doubt do not convict and all that.
Pecker's testimony is more damning, anyway the hush money in itself isn't on trial instead the book keeping and falsifying records, paying campaign money for 'catch and kill', Pecker, Cohen and Trump.

Source? It's hearsay without a source that explains the big picture.
Then wake me up when the Biden's, Obama's (including all the properties on Martha's Vineyard), and the Gore's properties are condemned as uninsurable - or - when the sell them and find they can't obtain title insurance. Ain't gonna happen.Sorry it's California but Florida home insurance is doubling and tripling.

"none of those beach front properties on the oceans could be insured"... some coastal property regions are becoming uninsurable in New Zealand.. but then in your world, maybe Thailand won't be affected by rising sea levels.. but if you ever did any research on these sorts of subjects, then you would know that sea level rise is a very slow but progressive fact... - it is the storms surges that are causing the most damage... not just going out and finding the sea level has gone up a few mm....
In Florida many house insurances are not being renewed, a big problem if you have mortgage, no insurance, no mortgage.

do you think he is fighting Ukraine alone? you know the war could have ended 2 years ago right, saved a whole tonne of lives, but no, uk & US kept it going!
Ah, keep the humming wheels of industry rolling. Nato probably inadvertently caused the war, 'keep poking the bear and see what happens' but I doubt they could have stopped it, wars are easy to start but not so easy to stop.

When will the name of this new service be changed from ASEANNOW to the Russian Crime Report?
It is vert simple. The reason that the Russians are here is because NO OTHER COUNTRY WANTS THEM.
London likes them.....if they buy expensive properties.

Please also keep in mind this META analysis of available data concerning heart attacks around the time you mention, 3AM....
I don't do anything like that, it would upset the dogs and I've always regarded the movements as a little ridiculous, especially if the wife starts moving as well.

but is next month not May?
We would like to think so but perhaps May is having second thoughts about appearing when it's too hot, which is why it's called May, it may arrive or it may not, it may show up for a bit and then disappear giving April some extra days, it's what Mays do.....how like them!

Well, of course this depends upon various factors, including insulation, size of room, efficiency of the AC unit, and other factors.
I use ACs that have an EER of 23, or above, (measured in BTU units not Kcal). Anyway, these are among the most efficient that are available to the consumer in Thailand in this market. I use Panasonic inverters. And, I use the most expensive models of the Panasonic inverters. BUT, as everybody here know, I am NOT satisfied with the quality, compared to the Panasonic ACs I bought in Taiwan/Japan. I do not know what is causing this. Maybe different quality for different markets, etc....
Also, you need to be careful when thinking that it is best to turn the AC off when you leave the room for a short period of time...
Why?
Because, there is data that shows that it is more efficient to allow the AC to remain on, and maintain a constant temperature, rather than to turn it off for a few hours, and then try to use the AC to re-cool the room, starting at a very high room air temp.
You can google this point, too.
NOTE: It sounds to me as if you may be using a non-inverter type AC, or one which might have a problem with the thermostat, or some other problem.
The Panasonic inverters that I have can maintain PLUS/MINUS 1 degree C temperature range when set to 22 degrees. But then you need to select AUTO fan. (I once had a defective Panasonic machine that was totally unable to maintain the selected air temp in the room. I finally was able to get the company to allow a return to the factory in Malaysia. or....I really do not know what they did with that defective machine.)
I think I feel colder at 3 am because that is when the body is at its weakest, many natural deaths and heart attacks occur around this time.

Under 21 degrees C is far better, and you will sleep better, too.
Optimal sleeping temp for humans is under 20 degrees C....
According to research you can google yourselves.
I read that every one degree below 25C increases the electricity use by 10%. 24C is OK, in fact I wake up at 3 in the morning because I feel too cold and turn the air con off.

Last night, the low in western Bangkok was 30, along with the sky high humidity. In fact, it was 31 at 2am last night. Then, by 8am it was already back to 33. There is simply no opportunity to cool down. This is what kills people, not daily highs but the inability of the body to cool down at night.
That's why God gave us air con, in my bedroom it was 24C last night, even my dogs sleep with us, they howl until I let them in the room.

Why is this news? It's like saying today will be hot......Let me see now, suspended pending a thorough investigation by their peers where it will be found it was all a misunderstanding and the lady will be sued for bringing the good name of the police into ill repute.

Frozen pension policy turns British expat's dream into a nightmare
in Thailand News
Posted
I agree, the British government, no matter which party, has never overly concerned themselves much with the people they are supposed to represent, any progress made since the industrial revolution has been due to some very brave men and women who fought for basic rights under the threat of imprisonment or worse. British pensions are not a right, they are classed as a benefit. Luckily I spent most of my working life in Germany and get a good (tax free) state pension and company pension with increases paid every year no matter where I live in the world after retiring at the age of 58. I do get a British pension of 37 pounds a week. I haven't been to the UK for 54 years, they can keep their 'island home'.
