Kodak EasyShare Z981 camera
Want to take pictures of skittish wildlife like an expert "twitcher" or cheating partners unawares, paparazzi style? Kodak's current big zoom bridge model in the 14-megapixel EasyShare Z981, offering a 26x optical reach equivalent to a whopping 26-676mm in 35mm film terms could become your weapon of choice.
Not much smaller than an entry DSLR with dimensions of 123.7 x 84.8 x 105mm and weighing 520g without accessories, first impressions of the Z981 is that it's a bit of a brick however. In use the tube-like lens extends an extra 2.5 inches in front of the camera when at maximum telephoto setting.
The added bulk over competition, such as Pentax's X90, is partly due to the four pre-charged NiMH AA batteries the Kodak requires for power being inserted into the base of its handgrip. Given that, we'd expected the camera to be slightly cheaper than its £399 asking price, which cost-wise makes it a direct alternative to a digital SLR proper.
Still, the camera feels firm and solidly built, its only Achilles heel being the sliding catch for the door protecting the joint battery and card compartment at its base, which was prohibitively stiff on our review sample. We had to force it open or closed.
There are positive surprises too, including a second shutter release button located at the base of the handgrip to theoretically aid use if turning the camera on its side to shoot portrait fashion. A top plate switch allows the photographer to swap between use of the two. This is something we've only previously witnessed on professional DSLRs, not that we found ourselves compelled to use it much, since the camera is overall still much smaller than a pro DSLR with battery grip so it's not so much of a stretch for the hand to reach the top plate under such circumstances.
A rubberised surround to the lens barrel aids grip when taking photographs handheld, as does the moulded grip proper. Plus, top banana RAW file capture is offered alongside the common JPEG format. Not unusual on a bridge camera perhaps, but not a given.
Pictures are composed - and reviewed - via 3-inch 230k-dot resolution LCD that takes up two-thirds of the space at the rear or identical resolution electronic viewfinder (EVF) directly above, with button alongside allowing the user to swap between them in an instant. Integral flash is of the fully automatic pop-up variety, and, unlike on higher end bridge models or DSLRs proper, there's no additional hotshoe for a separate flashgun.
The Z981 being part of Kodak's EasyShare family there's a dedicated button in the midst of the camera back for earmarking certain images for upload to the most popular social networking sites, as well as Kodak's own online gallery. We'd have preferred instead to have had included a dedicated one-touch record button for shooting video though, which is what, at first glance, it's easy to mistake the red "Share" button on the backplate for.
Other than that the Z981's backplate is reasonably "clean" as regards features, four buttons tucked in unobtrusively down the right hand edge of the screen - including dedicated delete, menu, display info (including live histogram in its creative modes) and playback controls - plus a thumb-operated directional control pad with central "OK" button to their right. Extra functions are not attributed to the directional arrows as on competing models, so, used in conjunction with mode options and menu screens this proves to be a navigation device pure and simple.
In P,A,S,M shooting modes a toolbar of key functions - such as shutter speed, aperture, exposure (+/- 2EV) and light sensitivity settings (ISO 64-1600 manually selectable) is presented running along the bottom of the screen, selections are made with a scroll and downward press of a small jog dial peeping out of the Z981's top plate. Though it is great that users are provided with this shortcut, being able to use the larger thumb operated control pad to make the same selections would have been less fiddly.
As it is, the recording of 1280 x 720 pixel HD clips at a 30fps playback rate starts and ends with a press of the shutter release button, having first selected video mode from among 10 options among the familiar bottle-top style mode dial on the camera's top plate, which also includes access to 16 preset scene modes. The built-in mono microphone is quite sensitive in that it picks up the zoom's operational adjustments and the user's hand movements, but in fairness at least the optical zoom remains accessible in movie mode, focus continually re-adjusting if left on default continuous AF setting. There's no HDMI output for hooking the camera up to a flat panel TV however.
In stills shooting mode, you can also hear the lens constantly "hunting" as it readies itself for the next shot. If we take issue it's that image-writing times are quite sluggish - the camera freezing for 5 seconds while a 14-megapixel JPEG file is being committed to SD card for example. Quite a few times we found ourselves quickly lining up the next shot and finding the camera wouldn't actually take it, as it was still processing the previous one, which proved frustrating.
Users also have a choice of two colour modes - "Natural" or "High Colour" for additional vividness that, with Kodak noted for well saturated colour anyway, at times produces results bordering on the lurid when downloaded and examined straight out of the camera.
Utilising the 26mm wide-angle end of the zoom, operated by a narrow rocker switch top right of the camera back, does result in some quite pronounced barrel distortion visible in images, while at the telephoto end shots are quite soft. When filming it's difficult to obtain a smooth transitional motion; the zoom is so responsive your footage ends up a little jerky.
Generally speaking the Kodak's JPEGs lack bite and contrast - at times over-exposed, something that can be corrected in Photoshop to an extent, but arguably you don't want to have to manually tweak every image. Also, even when shooting using the camera's "natural" setting, colours looked over saturated and a tad unrealistic, especially if literally shooting a natural (as opposed to man made) subject. At higher ISOs detail lessens as noise preventing processing kicks in, with images taken at ISO 1600 over our test period more closely resembling video grabs.
Delivering overly-bright colours at times, plus some quite pronounced barrel distortion and overall softness, results from the Z981 seem somehow to add up to less than the sum of its individual parts, more impressive on paper than in practice. Build quality is chunky and robust and its spacious layout will appeal to those with larger hands.
Those looking for a more portable high zoom option meanwhile may be better served by the likes of Canon's 14-megapixel, 14x optical zoom PowerShot SX210 IS, if prepared to sacrifice lens power for smaller form factor. Good news for Kodak fans does come however in the fact that we found the camera for £100 cheaper with a brief online search.

How to Be Bold
If you\'re shy, hesitant, or passive, you run the risk of leading a boring life marked by routine and unfulfilled goals. Most progress has been led by people who were bold--scientists, public servants, artists, entrepreneurs, and others who didn\'t wait for opportunities; they created opportunities. So if you want to be bold and unstoppable, here are some ways to kick start your momentum.
Rediscover who you are. Ultimately, boldness has to do with coming from your center, what you believe. It is not about what you do, it is about who you are. If you do not know who you are, you can never be truly bold. Start really appreciating your uniqueness. Discover what makes you different and then parade it around for all to see. Put flags on it, call attention to it and love yourself for it no matter what others think. That is the heart of boldness.
* Don\'t confuse being bold with being aggressive. Aggressiveness often involves imposing your viewpoints or actions on others. Boldness has nothing to do with the people around you; it\'s about overcoming your fears and taking action.
*Remember: there is a difference between being bold and being suicidal. If you know doing something will hurt you, it doesn\'t matter how bold you are; don\'t do it.

款式: 38633491 颜色:
Ridiculously small
I am very small and petite at 1.51cm and I brought this in an extra small in the Ivory (?) colour. I was very disappointed with it because it is way too short in the torso and felt like a wedgie. There is also no snap closure so it is impossible to wear. It was so short that it did not even cover my chest. The fabric of the mesh is also very cheap and coarse. You can find better quality in low budget department stores. Unless you are buying this for your young child or you are under 4 foot in height, I would not recommend this as a purchase.
ordered As soon as I saw " TOO SHORT"
At 5 1, no torso, & 0 shoulders, I thought... YaY! I've got a chance! (97% XSM ) Never expect 2 go Braless anyway, & "Mesh" - Sheer was apparent. Thought this would be an awesome layer under new sale items I purchased, & just @ Everything! ... (Unless u want self inflicted pain... U may want 2 size up) Shoulders & length will be too long if I go to Sm, but may B worth the try. LOVE the DarkGreen "Holly" (says on receipt) Colour 4 Camo under layer. . I Love thongs, but not THAT Much. Petites, Order! but expect SHORT FIT - EVERYWHERE!
perfect fit
Bought this on impulse because I love body suits and I'm so happy I did. The color (olive green) was very true and the small fit so well but maybe that's because I'm on the shorter side. I was expecting it to be see through because it's called the mesh body suit so I plan on wearing it with cute bralettes. Will definitely buy it in other colors and can't wait to wear it out.
Sexy and Fitting
Thought this looked great online and would be a nice basic to go with a lot of my warm-weather outfits. I was worried about the bad review, but since I have a short torso, I gave purchasing it a shot. And there was absolutely nothing wrong! It fits perfectly and looks awesome, too. The only thing is that I have to find a good strapless bra or pasties in order to wear this out, because it is a bit transparent.
Very flimsy, small and short!
After reading the other reviews I ordered up to a size Small as I am 5'5 1/2" and hoped to wear this under revealing tunics. I could barely get it over my shoulders, it has absolutely no coverage in the bottom back and the chest plunges very low. The fabric is also very thin and flimsy so I will be returning.
Not what I expected
The best way to describe the material of this item is a hard pair of stockings. It's not soft and completely see through. I ordered the black and was shocked that they would portray this as something that could be worn with just jeans or a skirt. It could only be worn as an undergarment. I was disappointed to say the least. I will be returning it.

How many of you guys on here hunt Rail? I was recently in a discussion with a friend about shooting the birds while they are swimming. Just curious about the general consensus of shooting them on the water. Do most people feel it is unsportsmanlike or does the time and effort to take them legally (no shooting while boat is under power) make it ok? Not trying to start an argument, just looking to see how other people think.
What's the point in shooting a bird in the water, takes no skill so most would not.
When we used to hunt them on the eastern shore the wardens were on you thick. Make sure all forward movement from the motor has stopped. We did not shoot them on the water as it takes the sport out of it to us. Just go over your gear and shot (steel only) and make sure youo are within the law, you will be checked.
Good luck
Island Bound
I have never frowned upon shooting a bird on the water. I typically hunt public land so I'll take them any way I can get them.
I've never hunted rail but I've had ducks land or swim into my decoys and had pheasants that would rather run that fly. I always flush these birds before shooting. I'm out there for wing shooting first and foremost, not to feed my family or rack up a body count. I know your frustration though; when you've put a lot of time, effort and resources into hunting and the birds don't fully cooperate. It makes the days they do that much better.
Skillet shoot them on the water!! If thet don't fly it's not your fault, it may not be the most sporting but it's legal and they taste so good
In maryland they finally changed the rules for using lead shot on webless species specifically the rail. Before they were considered a webless migratory species like dove and you could shoot lead at em.
In VA I think you could still shoot lead if you desired but I have not check the rules this year so dont shoot me. I have never shot a rail on the water but do like to shoot them when the tides are very high during the fall tides. They are also good tablefare and they provide us generous limits. I would always pole or kayak to them. Once I got stuck and had to call the coast gaurd but luckly I saw a crabber who I knew and got in, the boat was still dry the next day.
So I checked and it has been changed to non-toxic shot now required for rails in VA
Wonder when they will make us shoot non toxic shot at dove?

A mental health specialist recommended not deploying WikiLeaks suspect Bradley Manning to Iraq. But Manning's immediate commanders sent him anyway.
Manning is the 23-year-old Private accused of sending classified material to the WikiLeaks website. He was charged last summer with downloading classified State Department and Pentagon files onto his personal computer and then transmitting them to an unauthorized person.
A military official familiar with an Army investigation tells the Washington Post – the final decision on whether a soldier is fit to go to a war zone rests with his immediate commanders. But the investigation has concluded – the commanders' decision to not heed the specialist's advice – and their failure to properly discipline Manning – might have contributed to the incident.
The Army investigation is separate from the ongoing criminal inquiry. The source says the Army also found that Manning's supervisors did not set up proper oversight of the area where the classified files were kept.

Take an improved local real estate market, add a better jobs picture and low interest rates in the months leading up to Black Friday weekend and here's what you get: A projected 6 percent boost in holiday shopping sales in Orange County.
That growth surpasses the national holiday shopping forecast of 3.8 percent, according to a Wells Fargo economist. Deals, promotions and sales lured 247 million people into bricks-and-mortar stores and online retail sites across the United States.
Shoppers nationally spent an estimated $59.1 billion, what analysts consider a good start for the holiday shopping season.

Makes a Simile Timeline in WOrdPress
The Simile Timeline plugin was developed as part of the JISC Funded World War One Centenary project led by the University of Oxford (http://http://ww1centenary.oucs.ox.ac.uk/).
Simile Timeline makes an editor for the MIT Simile timeline within WordPress. You can see more about the MIT Simile project at http://www.simile-widgets.org/timeline/.
Although the editor doesn't support all features, it makes timeline creation more simple than writing javascript natively and supports displaying it on a WordPress site.
The interface is still relatively complicated, and it is likely we will improve this code to help make this part simpler - this tool was written to help us display timelines, and so it is written for us to use. We've shared the plugin so as to help others, but please remember that it isn't a trivial piece of work to create a timeline.
Please see http://www.pgogy.com and http://www.pgogy.com/code/groups/wordpress/simile-timeline-display/ for support queries.

Why Do I Have Decreased Urine After Taking Hemodialysis2012-10-24 08:42
Question: I have renal failure and have to be hooked up to dialysis machine this year. But I have decreased urine output since then. I read lot materials and find that decreased urine production indicates my kidney function is declining. What I am gonna do? Please help me!
Answer: reduced urine production among patients on hemodialysis may be caused by the following two possible reasons.
One is dehydration, and then high perfusion status develops accordingly. What's the result? GFR declines. Yes, this is the same meaning with declined kidney function just as you read from materials. However, urine output may increase due to the correction of heart failure and improvement of kidney perfusion.
Another reason for your declined urine output is due to declined blood osmotic pressure. Dialysis may clear out micromolecular substances like BUN which account for the decrease of blood osmotic pressure.
So my suggestion is don't worry about that before asking your doctor. Let him or her know if you have any discomfort.

'E Vermicielle C'alice Salate
Spaghetti with Anchovies
Serves 2 or 3
So much depends on the fine points for this dish to be right. First, its appeal depends mainly on the quality of the anchovies and the olive oil, but there's much more to it than that. It's not as nearly foolproof as aglio-olio, with which it competes in popularity in Campania, because there's an extra ingredient to showcase and balance. In the province of Salerno, where anchovies are still preserved under salt or salt water in crockery; everyone understands these fine points, although, of course, not everyone agrees on what they are.
Much is made of cooking the anchovies at nearly the same moment that the spaghetti is done, a sort of acrobatic feat that can turn balletic with practice. The theory is, the anchovies are losing fragrance with every passing second. So you must time their sizzle, smashing, and dissolution in oil—a 15 to 20 second operation that requires full attention- about the same time that you should be draining the spaghetti. As for garlic, too much obscures the sweet-salty sea-breeze perfume of a Salernitan anchovy; so more than a hint is too much. On the other hand, if the anchovies aren't the absolute best, a little more garlic may be in order. Use your taste and judgment, as you must to make a grand success of it.
1/2 pound spaghetti
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 or 2 cloves garlic, lightly smashed
Big pinch hot red pepper flakes, or to taste
6 whole salted anchovies,
thoroughly rinsed and filleted,
or 12 oil-packed anchovy fillets, rinsed
4 or 5 tablespoons fine, dry bread crumbs
1. Cook the spaghetti in plenty of well-salted boiling water.
2. Meanwhile, in an 8-inch skillet, over low heat, warm the olive oil, the garlic, and the hot pepper together, pressing the garlic into the oil a couple of times to release its flavor. Cook until the garlic is soft and barely colored on both sides, then remove.
3. Seconds before the spaghetti is ready to be drained, add the anchovies to the hot oil and smash them into the oil, using a table fork or the back of a wooden spoon. They will dissolve quickly. Raise the heat slightly if necessary.
4. Drain the spaghetti and turn it into the skillet with the anchovy oil. Toss well until all the strands have been seasoned with the anchovy sauce.
5. Fork the spaghetti into warmed individual bowls or a large serving bowl. Toss the bread crumbs in the oil left in the pan, sprinkle them on the spaghetti, and eat immediately. (Cheese is totally inappropriate.)

Neil Young is taking a look at his life and realizing that his classic Lincoln is just burning too much fuel, so he's taken it to H-Line Conversions to get it converted to a hybrid that he claims will get 100 MPG. With a length near 20 feet, the only bigger hybrid on the road is likely to be an articulated bus. Press release about the car and his appearance on CNN below the jump: Advertisement BURBANK, CA—(Marketwire - November 17, 2007) - Neil Young will be interviewed on CNN's "American Morning" on Monday, November 19th. Young, in the middle of a North American tour, went to Wichita, Kansas to meet with John Goodwin, who is converting Young's 1959 Lincoln Continental Mark IV convertible to run on biodiesel and electricity. Young and Goodwin describe the new fuel-efficient life of the car and how it holds exciting possibilities for the future.Neil Young is directing a movie about the experience, including the drive from Northern California to Kansas to deliver the vehicle. Titled "Linc-Volt," the film is scheduled for a 2008 release. Once the conversion is complete, Young will drive the Lincoln from Wichita to Detroit for meetings with the auto industry, and then return to Kansas to retrace the route back to Northern California, raising awareness of the feasibility of hybrid-powered cars within the mainstream consciousness. He describes the Lincoln's new form and function as the embodiment of "classic Americana from then, meeting the Americana from now." The Linc-Volt is expected to achieve up to 100 miles per gallon on the highway. Advertisement "American Morning" airs on the CNN television network 6-9 a.m. EST.

Thailand - Girls Page 3
Problem time
If men just had sex with Thai bar girls and walked away there wouldn't be any problems but often they don't. They form emotional bonds with girls who are only interested in their money and, not infrequently, it leads to a lot of heartache.
Why do men fall in love with girls like this? If you have been to Thailand and encountered playful bar girls you will know why. The whole industry is somewhat less seedy than in other countries. The fact that the girls work for less than sex workers in other countries means that encounters normally last for longer.
Rather than a quick 20 minutes to do what is necessary, men spend days - sometimes even weeks - with a girl and inevitably feelings grow stronger. Most tourists just don't understand Thai culture, and misinterpret what is happening.
It is no coincidence that every man who gets involved with a bar girl claims to have a thorough understanding of the industry but, for some reason, his particular girl is always different to the rest. She is the one girl in Thailand out of 60 million people who got caught up in the trade accidentally but now he can rescue her.
This is something I hear time after time. Some girls are more seasoned and more ruthless than others, there is no doubt, but the bottom line is that however sweet, innocent and naive they appear to be, they are selling their bodies to whoever comes along with enough money. And in Thailand, that needn't be a lot of money.
Some men make wives of bar girls but many have problems. If you are going down this path be very careful.
Farang Man + Thai Girl; A Not Untypical Scenario
Farang man arrives in Thailand after a long flight and is initially overwhelmed by the sights, smells and sounds of Thailand. He should feel tired but the excitement of being in Thailand acts as a stimulant and the tiredness goes away. He checks into his hotel, gets showered and changed, and is ready to head out into the streets to explore Thailand.
As this is a vacation he will probably be in a tourist area where there will be lots of bar areas. Sooner or later he will wander into one of these areas (probably sooner). In the bar area the reception he gets will be like nothing he has experienced at home. Instead of girls acting indifferently or aggressively towards him the Thai girls will welcome him warmly.
There will be a chorus of "Hello, welcome, sit down please, you handsome man, etc". Farang man will feel most flattered, smile to himself and congratulate himself on his choice of holiday destination. He will walk around for a while and get the same reception at every bar before he eventually goes inside one for a drink.
His choice of bar may be because he has walked around enough already; it could be because he was physically dragged in there by Thai girls (it happens); or maybe because he spotted a particularly attractive girl working there and would like to take a closer look.
Inside the bar, first things first. He will get a beer; normally a Singha or Chang in a 'coldie holder' and will drink from the bottle. He will sit on a bar stool with a silly, smug grin on his face. In the bar will be several girls in various outfits depending on the bar. There will be a few dodgy looking ones but there will inevitably be lots of young, pretty ones too.
He will be surrounded by girls very quickly, some will put their arms around him, sit on his lap and tell him, "You handsome man", etc. After 10 minutes or so of talking to the girls they will ask if they can have a drink. This only seems fair so he says yes. The 'lady drinks' are more expensive than his own because included in the price is payment for the girls' company.
As long as he is happy to keep buying the drinks the girls will stay around. If he doesn't buy them drinks they will look elsewhere or just sit down on their own again. Several girls may try to get in on the act if he is generous so he should tell girls he doesn't want to buy drinks for to go away, politely of course. If the conversation starts to dry up some of the girls may initiate bar games such as 'Connect 4' to keep him occupied.
This is all good fun, the man's ego gets a nice boost while the bar gets some of his money. Everyone is happy. At some stage of the evening it will be made clear to him that he can leave the bar with a girl (or girls) of his choice. To do this requires payment of a 'bar fine' which varies from town to town but which isn't much. The bar fine then releases the girl from her work for the rest of the day.
The man pays the bar fine and leaves with the girl hand-in-hand. She is now his to do with whatever he wishes. The girl will make it clear to the man that the bar fine goes to the bar and he is expected to give her money. Of course, while they are together he will pay for everything.
If the man enjoys himself and is happy for her to go back the next morning, all is fine. She's earned some money, he has had a good time and no-one gets hurt. He may do the same thing with another girl (or the same girl) the next night and repeat the process until it is time to go home. If he can do this without any emotional attachment then he is unlikely to run into any problems.
However, it is seldom as straightforward as this. Some very emotionally vulnerable men who haven't had much luck with the ladies come to Thailand on vacation. Their experience with girls at home has not been good. At best they have only been able to attract very unattractive women and many of the men can't attract any woman.
Everything changes in Thailand. From being totally unwanted, as they were at home, they are now (apparently) quite desirable by very pretty girls. The girls latch on to this power they have over the men and play the game very well. They hug the men, tell them they love them, and act as if they have been waiting all their lives for that particular man to come along. They will also tell the men how poor they are and how they dislike the work they do but it is the only way they can make a living.
Farang man may fall for a girl and continue paying her bar fines plus her daily allowance so that he can spend all his time with her. They hold on to each other all the time, call each other darling and sleep together from day one without the inconvenience of a courtship or getting to know each other. The man feels great until it dawns on him that he has to go home soon and there is no escaping that fact.
The day of his flight comes and it is the blackest day of his life. Of course, his new sweetheart also appears to be very upset. He knows only too well what she does for a living and the thought of her being with another man after he leaves is unbearable. In order to 'save' her from the bar he agrees to send her some money each month so she can live without doing this horrible work.
He gets home and the loneliness and emptiness that had completely disappeared while he was in Thailand returns. The drudgery of life back home and the total lack of any female attention is soul destroying. He has his memories though and wants to keep the dream alive. He sets up a regular money transfer as he said he would, and calls his girl often on her mobile phone. When he speaks to her she says she is at home having a quiet night in but he wonders why there is loud music in the background, quite similar actually to the atmosphere of the bar where he met her.
She is actually back in the bar looking for more paying customers. If she can do the same thing with a few foreign men it will be a nice income for her. There are girls living in ritzy apartments in Bangkok with expensive clothes and fancy mobile phones bought from the money sent by gullible farangs from abroad.
Occasionally he will get an e-mail in very poor English saying how much she misses him, thanking him for the money, and asking when he will return. Perhaps she will mention some calamity that has befallen the family, a death or an illness maybe. This requires money which she doesn't have so can he send some more? What he doesn't realise is that she is sitting in an Internet café with a friend who knows some English and it is her friend doing the typing. He also doesn't realise that the same e-mail is being copied and pasted to several other men in her address book.
As soon as he can, he starts to plan his next trip and Thailand becomes an all-consuming passion. He loses interest completely in his home country. When he returns to Thailand he may or may not see the same girl again. Keeping in touch over a long distance is difficult. He may have realised he was being conned or she might just have got bored. It may be that two of her men have decided to come back at the same time so she has to let one of them down.
When he does come back he will go through the same thing with another girl if he doesn't see the one he saw before. His vulnerability and desire to recapture those same feelings he felt before as soon as possible will cause him to look for love in all the wrong places. He will have some highs but these will be followed by very deep lows. To try to hang on to the experience he will be generous with money but will probably give away a lot and never get what he truly desires.
Visiting Thailand can be a wonderful experience but it can be bitterly cruel too. Some of the girls should come with government health warnings like those put on packets of cigarettes. Have fun with the bar girls but be very careful about which ones you get emotionally attached to. Sometimes it works out but more often than not it doesn't.
The Mercenaries
"A heart of stone and claws of steel."
The following is a short extract from a book that is part of the 'Cities of the World' series: No. 11 Bangkok, written by James Kirkup. It was first published in 1968.
"The Nipa Guest House is in Sukhumvit Road, a place very popular with American servicemen and other wandering foreigners, for it is lined with dance halls, massage parlours and Turkish baths (mostly clustered round the American Services' Villa Club) where extremely pretty, scantily clad and extraordinarily mercenary Thai girls attend charmingly to all the physical needs of campaign-weary patrons.
The Thai entertainers are very spoilt and very greedy, and as the girls graduate from lowly drinking dens and knocking-shops round the harbour to the glittering fantasy of Bangkok's luxurious cabarets and night spots they become more and more demanding and grasping; those sweet smiles and delicate fingers conceal a heart of stone and claws of steel. But it is a pleasure to be gypped by these girls once in a while."
At the time of writing, that passage is over 40 years old but it is just as relevant today as it has always been - maybe more so, in fact. If you are male, single and planning your first trip to Thailand, I would suggest reading the above quote several times and remembering the key parts.
Some of the girls have better hunting instincts than Great White sharks and, just like sharks, they have the capability of being able to identify weak prey.
A few years ago, at the request of the Thai girl I was with at the time, I went with her to watch a Patpong sex show but instead found myself watching a large group of mercenary Thai girls who were working there fleece three middle-aged farang tourists.
I think it was the guys' first trip to Thailand - they just had that look about them - and the girls probably sensed the same thing. At first, one girl approached them and in no time at all there were about 15 bikini-clad girls all over them.
A large round of 'lady drinks' was ordered which must have cost a small fortune, with most of the money for the drinks going straight into the girls' handbags. As soon as they had their drinks, they just left the men and never returned.
Occasionally I go to tourist areas. For me these days, it's a strange curiosity because what goes on in those areas is totally alien to my life in Thailand.
Most of the Thai girls I know are so innocent and demure that when I see bar girl behaviour in Patong the experience is similar to watching a circus freak show. It is so out of context in normal daily life in Thailand that it seems almost surreal.
It is in those areas where there are lots of tourists that the mercenaries are attracted. They have but one objective in life and that is to extract as much money from foreign men as possible. They will give you 10 minutes of conversation but if you haven't bought them a drink in that time, or hinted that money will be forthcoming, they will leave.
As long as they are being paid, they will stay but as soon as the money stops, they will leave. They have the Buddhist ability to remain completely detached emotionally from whatever they do physically. Their bodies are used just as tools for their profession. Physical intimacy means absolutely nothing to them apart from being a way to earn money.
The author of the quote above makes the point that occasionally it can be a pleasure to be taken by these girls but I would suggest treating them with a great deal of caution and, whatever you do, don't form any emotional attachments. Falling in love with a mercenary Thai girl will empty your bank account fairly quickly and lead to a lot of emotional pain.
Every now and again, I read a load of naive nonsense from supposedly professional journalists about the Thai sex industry. Invariably, they focus on the plight of one poor girl who ended up in the industry as a result of poverty and they describe what a harrowing experience it has been for her. The mistake they make is implying that every Thai prostitute is a helpless victim.
Yes, this does happen. Girls from poor backgrounds with no job opportunities move to Bangkok and other tourist areas to find work in order to support their families. They don't want to be sex workers but find it is the only way they can earn enough to survive and send money home.
It is these girls who I feel sorry for but it's not the case for every single girl. The mercenary girls certainly aren't victims. They go about their work in a very calculating manner and the only victims involved are the foreign men who get involved with them.
I need to make the point that mercenary girls in Thailand make up only a tiny fraction of a percent of the overall female population. What is unfortunate, however, is that because of their easy accessibility, it is these girls that foreign men tend to head straight for as soon as they arrive in Thailand.
To avoid the mercenary girls all you need to do is walk away when they start revealing their true colours. If you know the score but ignore the signs and continue to come back for further punishment, then that is up to you.
I don't splash money around in Thailand because doing so has a tendency to attract all the wrong kind of people (not just girls) and it can actually be quite dangerous. Jealousy is not unknown in Thailand and the Thais can be a very vengeful race. I freely admit that I'm quite stingy with girls but I avoid a lot of problems that way.
Temptation Around Every Corner?
"Thailand is a place where there is temptation around every corner." I once heard a farang living in Thailand say this and it quite surprised me. It especially surprised me as he was living in ultra-conservative southern Thailand. What did he mean? The working girls aren't exactly tempting men; they're just looking for business.
His comment seemed to imply that there are Thai females everywhere peering out of their lonely rooms, beckoning in passing strangers on their way to work for a quick illicit encounter. That definitely isn't the case.
Thais smile a lot and are famous for doing so. Remember, this is the 'Land of Smiles'. Everyone smiles at everyone, pretty girls even smile at ugly, sad, middle-aged farangs. Smile at a pretty girl in the UK and she will return a look that says, "What the f*** are you grinning at?" Certain females in the UK will actually tell you to, "F*** off."
But in Thailand if you smile at a pretty girl she will normally give a big smile back. Wow! It's a nice feeling and can certainly put a spring in your step but don't be confused. They say the Thais have a smile for all occasions and because of this they smile for different reasons.
Sometimes it's just to be friendly and sometimes it's because they feel nervous, afraid or threatened. Sometimes the famous Thai smile is used as a defence mechanism if a stranger may appear to be dangerous. What the smile from the pretty girl stranger is unlikely to be though is an invitation to her bedroom, and if you think that you are sadly deluded.
Temptation around every corner? I don't think so my deluded friend. So what is the situation in Thailand with the girls, then? Well, there are lots of opportunities to look at pretty girls. It's free and no one gets too upset. A girl won't give you a mouthful of abuse for looking at her and her boyfriend probably won't beat you up. In fact, the girls seem to love the attention.
There are lots of opportunities to flirt with pretty girls. Flirting is a national pastime and girls will flirt with you more than you flirt with them but don't take it too seriously. They may give you a phone number or make a date and look desperate to see you again but there's a good chance they will disappear, never to be seen again. It happens a lot.
There are lots of opportunities to have sex with working girls. It's as easy going into somewhere for sex as it is going into 7-Eleven for a packet of Mama instant noodles. There are also lots of opportunities to form deep, meaningful relationships with very decent girls but this requires plenty of time and a deep level of commitment which could mean marriage.
Thailand is definitely a land of opportunity but temptation around every corner? I honestly don't think so.
Thai Girls And Sex
Several years ago I was looking at a web site written by a guy who had spent a lot of time in Thailand and Japan. He commented that every time he had sex in Thailand, he paid the girl; and every time he had sex in Japan, the girl paid him.
I'm obviously living in the wrong place. He makes a valid point though.
In my experience, I have found Thai girls to have an extremely healthy appetite for sex, and to enjoy sex as much as - if not more than - girls from anywhere else.
The big difference is that with Thai girls the pleasure they derive from having sex is never enough payment alone. There always has to be more. In all my years of living in Thailand, I have never had no-strings-attached sex.
The most obvious examples are the tens (hundreds?) of thousands of Thai prostitutes. To them, sex is nothing but a business transaction, and to forget or ignore that fact is crass stupidity.
But there are also lots of girls who aren't prostitutes who might like a man and have a desire to sleep with him. Even if they initiate sex and do it because they want to, there will always be an expectation for payment.
There are also lots of Thai girls who aren't looking to be paid every time they have sex, but who have sex with a man because they want to marry him. To help their cause and to force the man into a corner, they will often do their best to get pregnant.
It has happened to me twice. I got off the hook the first time but ended up getting married the second time; not that I regret marrying the girl I did but she ensured it happened a lot quicker than I had originally intended.
Sex is never given away for free in Thailand.
Dependent Relationships
The Client/Patron relationship is so ingrained in Thai culture that not only is it perfectly acceptable; to a lot of Thais it is actually very desirable. Many Thais near the bottom of society are comfortable in a subservient 'client' role with a benefactor (or 'patron') looking after them.
Give such a person the chance to live independently and they will refuse it in order to have the protection and security of a patron to look after them. The fact of the matter is that the majority of Thai girls who get involved with foreign men aren't that high up the social scale.
I see many Thai/farang couples in completely dependent relationships. He stands there like a lemon not understanding anything going on around him in Thailand; completely dependent on her to sort things out, and also dependent on her for his emotional and sexual needs. She meanwhile is dependent on him financially.
There is nothing wrong with this if it is what both people are happy with. Societies in which people depend on others to help them tend to be a lot more pleasant that those where everyone has the attitude they can do everything themselves.
It's really a case of what you want. I don't feel very comfortable in relationships where both people are overly dependent on each other but it suits others.
Isn't It Time You Visited Thailand?
Thailand is an incredibly photogenic country, both for its landscapes and its people. Regardless of whether you enjoy large Asian cities, beaches and islands or rice fields and mountains, Thailand has something for you and it is a dream destination for photographers.
However, the country is changing and not necessarily for the better. Every year sees an increase in the number of tourists and this growth has been fueled by economic development in China in recent years.
Huge development has taken place to create the infrastructure to cater for mass tourism and, sadly, many natural areas of Thailand have been lost forever.
Thailand now is very different to how it was in 2003 when I started living in the country, and it is a world apart from the Thailand I first visited in 1987.
Despite this, there are still many interesting and unspoilt areas that haven't been ruined by commercialism and mass tourism. But this won't last forever. Visit soon before it's too late.
One of the great things about visiting Thailand is that hotels are plentiful and a lot cheaper than in most other countries. I always use Agoda to book hotels in Thailand. The company was established in Thailand and has great local knowledge, as well as a huge inventory of hotels.
The Agoda website is easy to navigate, the booking process efficient, and with Agoda's 'Best Price Guarantee' you can be assured of getting the best possible deal.
