Laos

Laos is a landlocked country in Southeast Asia, bordered by Burma and People's Republic of China to the northwest, Vietnam to the east, Cambodia to the south and Thailand to the west. Its capital city is Vientiane. Laos has become more popular with tourists among whom it is known for its relaxed style of living. I have been to Laos about 5 years ago. Laos is the place that people live as simple live. There are not many department store but they have good environment. There are nice and kind people. The official tourism slogan is "Simply Beautiful", and I do agree with this. Laos’s food is very delicious and the taste is like Thai’s food. Somtum or papaya salad is my favorite Laos food. Laos language is really similar to Thai language. I think Thai people can understand Laos language easily because Laos language is the same as language of North Eastern of Thailand. Laos has many interesting places to go such as waterfall, sight-seeing, temples. I do love Laos because it has beautiful life. Laos people are kind and friendly as same as Thai people.

Happy Tree Friends

Happy Tree Friends is a flash cartoon. It is created by Rhonde Montijo and it's has become popular internet phenomenon. Only after its internet debut in 2000, Happy Tree Friends became an unexpected success, getting over 15 million hits each month, and being shown in film festivals. It's not for young child because the story is about violences. I had see it in Youtube because my friends recommened me to watch it. when I first watched them I think this video are gross and disgusting. Every episode features at least one character's violent and bloody death. The show is nearly free of dialogue; when the characters do speak, their words are severely garbled. Though it is obvious what each character's reaction is, their words can barely be understood. When my mother saw this video, she said to me that " what are you watching ? Are you being crazy ?" I think it is very popular for the one who get angry but I am impressed at the creativity and skill involved in the animation.

www.lookbook.nu

I love this web site. It's a must see, so I made this collage to give you an idea of what it's all about. They do such an incredible job mixing current fashion style with secondhand/vintage finds and also making their own clothes from scratch. I love their styles and attitude about fashion. This blog is a great inspiration to my own style.
I love playing around with different characters and one day I can be the old lady and another day I can be the rock chick. I have given up on choosing one style cause I find that it kills my joy of shopping. I have very few limits when it comes to what I wear and I like to think that I look good in anything. Due to my budget I mostly shop secondhand, make stuff myself or pick up something at my home. I have no complaints because I like that the shortness on cash makes me have to experience and be creative. To me fashion is a way of expressing myself and I love planning new outfits.

Jackass

Jackass is the brainchild of Johnny Knoxville. It is said that back in 1999, when he was still a struggling actor who was writing on the side, he came up with the idea of testing various self defense devices on himself. Unfortunately, the magazines that he tried to sell the idea to didn’t think it would work. It wasn’t until he met with Jeff Tremaine of Big Brother Magazine (not the TV show, but a magazine about skateboarding humor) that he got his break. Tremaine hired Knoxville as a writer and then urged him to make videos of that particular idea.
In my opinion, I think Jackass is a stupid person who do stupid things. I have watched the Jackass clip from Youtube. I think it is really dangerous to do something like that. For example, they close their eyes walking across highway, they do shopping cart racing, etc. It is too risky to do something that not safe your life. They do all the stupid things for their fun. They didn't care what the effects that will come after they do this stupid things. I think that these stupid guys must think that is cool for anyone to see. I want them to use their time in a good way not for something fun.

France

The country where I most want to visit is France. It’s so attractive to many tourists from every part of the world. Actually I am not quite interest in traveling but this place can attract me and make me want to go there. There are many reasons for me why I like this country. The first reason is nice environment. I have seen the view around Paris, the capital city of France. It is very beautiful and different form Thailand. Many Thai people who use to visit there told me that the most beautiful view of Paris is in the night. I want to see it once in a life time. Second reason is nice food. There are many original foods from France that are very popular in many parts of the world. I want to eat one of it there too. And the last reason is nice fashion. As you know many popular designers graduated here. There many popular school of fashion. I likes to in trend. So I want to attend the popular fashion week there, Paris fashion week. I have studied French language so I hope it will help me when I go there.

My Idol

I want to tell you about my idol. My idol is Jui Juis. He is the one man band who performs with one guitar and three mics. He plus a little bit of creative and imagination. I really like his performance. He is an indy musician from Chiang Mai. I like to go for his concert around Chiang Mai. I think he is the real musician. He plays all of the music instruments for his album. He won a contest from Chang Draught Journey to Glastonbury Festival 2007 in England. In 2008 he released 2 EP on his own, and I've got it, too. His song is fantastic. When I missing Chiang Mai and all of my friends, I always listen to his songs. The one reason that I love him, because he is a friendly guy. He never let the fame go into him. He always smile at his fans. I'm the one of his biggest fan too. I can sing all of his songs. All of my friends in Chiang Mai really like him too. He has his own style. He designed his front cover of his album. He is good at drawing, too. I think he can be the role model for teens.

Durian

Durian, the very strong smell fruit but it’s the most favorite fruit for many people. I can say that the best Durian in the world is from Thailand.
In the past, the best Durian orchard is Nonthaburi. Currently, Bangkok is expanded to suburb, Nonthaburi is also needed for lodge. Orchard is developed to be housing and many factories. There still be only some of small orchard which coursed the high price of Durian from Nonthaburi. You may not believe that price of Durian Kan-Yao from Nonthaburi is more than 5,000 baht per each. Some orchard does not bring their product to buy in the market, customer takes order to reserve and take the durian at the orchard.
Now, the popular durian is from Rayong, Chanthaburi, and south of Thailand. Monthong is the most popular with dry meat and smell not so strong. We can export Durian to border country around Thailand. Japanese and Singaporean love durian so much. I would say that Durian is King of fruit. The best one has to produced from Thailand.

Japan

JAPAN, It’s my dream since I was child to travel around Japan. As I knew about Japan, it is a civilization country with nice people, nice culture and safety. Japanese foods are my most favorite. The most delicious Takoyaki in Bangkok is at The Esplanade Ratchada. But I think that nothing different from others. Fuji is Japanese restaurant that my family always visits. It’s variety of foods for everyone, reasonable price compare to other Japanese food shop. Moreover, he also applies the taste fit to Thai people. My father likes to take the sour and spicy Thai foods which can be found here. My mom likes the Chinese foods which also can be found here. I think that I really need to try the original taste at Japan.
Onsen, it is reputable vacation which is the most popular in Japan. I believe that almost 100% of tourists have to try the Japanese Onsen. It’s good for health and very relaxes. The other activities at Japan that I can recognize is Ski, it’s also my wish to play ski at Nagoya. The biggest Aquarium at Osakako is in my list of Japanese tour. Many big aquatic animals are here, Whale shark, Manta-ray and etc. Walking at Shin-ju-gu, finding curious foods in a side road. I will walk through the small food shop that located inside the corner of the city. It challenges me to go there.

Korea

Korea is the country in East Asia located on the southern half of the Korean Peninsula. Its capital is Seoul. Its has a population of over 50 millions. Its has beautiful environment. I love their culture and food. Korea is actually loved because of the integrity, honest people living over there, and what makes it more fascinating is the cultural aspect that related to social scripts. I do not know the north side exactly, but as I know from the south one, korean people are worth to be respected. I like to try Korea's food. My favorite dishes is Bulgogi or Barbeque beef. I like to go to Korea's restaurant with my family. I love to use Korea's cosmetic such as, Etude house, Skin food because of their package can attract me. Korea always designed their goods in a lovely package, its can attract many girls to buy them. If I have a chance I want to go to Korea. I want to go to Cheju's Island because it have very good environment and many people want to be there. So, Korea is important to me because I spend a lot of money to purchase their goods because I love Korea's style and also their foods.

Dek Vanz

Now, I'm going to tell you about Dek Vanz. They like to ride a motorbike very fast. They have a lot of their free times. They do nothing for their daily life. There are two types of them 1.Dek Zap : They are rider and they like to ride a motorbike in a strange way. Eventhough, it is a straight way or twisty road, they always make wind lines when they ride. 2.Skoii Girls : Skoii Girls are the girls who sit behind the motorbike rider. They like to wear a singlet with very short shorts and put on make up, they always put on red lipstick. Dek Vanz is one group of social problem. They like to modify their motorbike for racing. They love it when engine go fast and it makes really noisy sound. They are gregarious and alway annoying other people by racing motorbike on public street. Many people were stricken by sound pollution. An assumption of how is the word ' Vanz ' come from is when they increase speed, the engine sounded like vanz. So, we called them ' Dek Vanz '. They love to wear skinny jeans with t-shirt messeges. One says Linkin Park, Lim Bizkit, Sid, etc.
I think that these kind of people are social problem. They always make harm to the city. They spend all of their free times doing bad thing. Most of them are drug-addicted because of their friend pointed them to join it together. When they have problem they choose to solve the problem with drugs. They love their friends more than their parents. I think that their parents should give them an advice and give them love. I believed that love can make everything getting better.

Listening to Mozart Won't Make Your Child Smarter

I have read this article in yahoo. It's discussing about the mozart and it's show that listening to mozart will not make your children smarter. It have no
evidence that listening to mozart can improve cognitive abilities. University of Vienna psychologists examined more than 40 studies and unpublished research that included more than 3,000 subjects. Their conclusion: nothing supports the idea that Mozart music improves what's known as spatial ability. "I recommend listening to Mozart to everyone, but it will not meet expectations of boosting cognitive abilities," Jakob Pietschnig, a psychologist at the University of Vienna, said in a news release from the school. The researchers said that they couldn't confirm the beneficial effects of listening to Mozart music, as suggested in a famous 1993 .
In my opinion, I think mozard can be the one part that can make the brain can be calm. As the result, we have to pay attention at something we are doing. Not just listening to mozart but you have to improve yourself. It can be easy if you love what you are doing and make it with your happiness

Justin Bieber says clueless why girls scream for him

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Teen idol Justin Bieber has revealed he can't understand why girls scream for him -- and that he still gets grounded by mom despite his star status. Bieber, 16, whose latest album "My World 2.0" shot to No.1 on the Billboard charts, told Oprah Winfrey in a TV interview broadcast on Tuesday that he is still trying to get used to the screaming hordes of young fans who greet his every appearance. "It's pretty hard to comprehend. Like everything's just kind of surreal, "Bieber said, in an interview on "The Oprah Winfrey Show". Asked why he thinks teen girls are screaming and crying when they see him, he said: "I have no clue!" Bieber comes from a small Canadian town and was signed to a record deal at age 14 after his mother posted videos of him singing on the website YouTube. On a recent tour of Australia and New Zealand, the teen idol drew thousands of fans and the kind of hysteria reminiscent of The Beatles in the 1960s. Bieber told Winfrey he tries to take a day off each week to hang out with friends or play basketball, and be a "regular kid. "Being the same as other kids also means occasionally getting grounded by his mom, Pattie. "My mom takes things that I really like, like my computer, my phone," he told Winfrey. "She takes my phone away for a couple of days and I'm like, 'Oh, I need that!'" "You can't say, 'Mom, I can't get grounded ' I'm Justin Bieber'? " Winfrey asked him."She'll slap me in the face!", he replied.

I think Justin is a good boy because he does not let fame get to him. He still an ordinary boy. He plays basketball with his friends and also do something like a young boy. I think he is good to be a good role model for the kids. It's reasonable if many girls falling in love with him.

How do mosquito suck blood ?

Only female mosquitoes bite, and all mosquitoes live on the sugar found in plant nectar, not on blood. But there is a reason females seek blood. Female mosquitoes, unlike males, have a proboscis. This is a long thin needle-like built-in syringe located at the mouth. They use this to impale their victims, in order to fill their abdomens with blood. Proteins in the blood are necessary to produce fertile eggs. Since males cannot produce eggs they have no need for blood. Females require a new blood 'meal' for every nest they lay, and produce about 250 eggs per meal. Mosquitoes lay eggs in standing water where they hatch into squirming larva. The larva molt four times before going into the next stage of pupa. Inside the hardened case of the pupa, the adult mosquito forms and eventually hatches. Female mosquitoes live anywhere from one to several weeks depending on the species and the environment. Some females can survive the winter to lay eggs in the spring, before dying. Males generally live 4-5 days, and die after mating. Mosquitoes have been evolving for 30 million years. During that time they've built an impressive array of sensory receptors. They possess chemical, visual, and heat sensors, all designed to zero in on a blood source. The chemical sensory receptors are located on the antennae, which allow them to detect carbon dioxide. All mammals give off carbon dioxide, including humans. Our skin excretes the gas, as does our breath. A mosquito can detect this scent from 100 feet (30 meters) away. Insect repellents containing the active ingredient, DEET, work by confusing the chemical receptors of the mosquito so that they cannot zero in on the source of the carbon dioxide. When a mosquito bites it injects a small amount of saliva that thins the blood so it doesn't coagulate in the narrow channel of the proboscis. When it's done feeding, some of this saliva remains in the wound. This causes an immune system response and itching. A welt forms, known as a wheal, and the body goes to work breaking down the proteins from the saliva. The bite will continue to itch until the body has broken down all of the proteins. Mosquitoes can carry diseases that can be transferred to humans through their bite. Some of these are malaria, encephalitis, West Nile virus, Yellow and Dengue Fever. To keep the mosquito population down, avoid allowing standing water to collect. Flowerpots, trash lids -- anything deep enough to collect a puddle can be a breeding ground. Fountainless birdbaths or any other necessary standing water should be flushed with the hose every few days. If you have a fishpond the fish will eat the mosquito larva. There are about 3,000 species of mosquitoes worldwide, 150 of which are found in North America. New Jersey, which has 63 species, is sometimes referred to as the Mosquito State. == Answer == Only the female is capable of drinking blood, an act called haematophagy. Females do not require blood to survive, but they need supplements, such as protein and iron, to enable them to develop and lay their eggs. The female Mosquitoes do not actually "bite". They will actually pierce the skin with their sharp proboscis, injecting a mild painkiller as they do so, to numb the pain, and will then proceed to suck the host's blood.

TAT asked to aid travellers stranded at Suvarnabhumi

I read the article on " TAT asked to aid travellers stranded at Suvarnabhumi " the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) help hundreds of tourists from Scandinavia, who have been stuck at Suvarnabhumi Airport for four days after most flights to Europe were cancelled due to a volcanic ash cloud over European skies.

I think TAT make it the right way.Because this is thier responsibility to help their customer.And lend a hand to help stranded tourists and show the country's spirit.Its can make them feel encouraged and safe,while local political conflicts, which is likely to get more serious.And I hope they will find the way to send thier customer back home.
