    MOVIE QUIZ #10

    Superb film! Leonardo DiCaprio
  2. Same here. I have tried 3 times at different times yesterday and today, and the form filling code is abysmally slow. Moving from field to field sometimes takes minutes rather than sub second as a well designed data entry page would do. I haven't any idea what the coders have done to fuck up such an easy task, but they really should redesign the whole thing or send it to someone who actually knows how to code a data entry page. Typical problems that have occurred in each or some of the attempts are: Browser asks if the page should be killed because it is unresponsive (usually moving between fields) Form entry slows as more and more fields are added CAPTCHA entry shown as invalid even though it is entered correctly Moving to page 2 leaves a never ending blank page that requires restarting the entire sequence (never did get to page 2) This worked back in June after many attempts, but I've spent nearly an hour plugging through and see no relief, so it's off to Jomtien and then follow jacko's suggestsions

    The Man Who Would Be King
  4. atlas2, help!!
  5. Title modified.
  6. I get the feeling I'm being trifled with.
  7. Must be very nice at 36k for 3 weeks.
  8. Logically, since you returned before the previous extension expired, they should use that, since if they are saying the new extension takes precedence, then that means it has a term greater than one calendar year (one year and 3 days, in your case), and such a visa extension does not exist! Good luck arguing that point though :

    Someone to Watch over Me
  11. In a goofy way it sort of makes sense, especially if they want to be dickheads about it. My sympathies!
  12. Roy, why do you think I am asking recommendations for honest jewelers and methods of countering any monkey business? Answer: to avoid the situation you just described.
  13. Thanks, BB. Once again, back to the drawing board!
  14. Eh? Sorry but I don't speak Gaborish tonight!
  15. I have a ring with diamonds that I'd like to have reset and made into another ring. My concern is how to verify that the diamond I receive after the resetting is the same diamond I give to the jeweler. I suppose I could get an assay on the diamonds in one shop and use that to compare against the diamond I receive back in the new setting..that's one approach to verify I received the correct stone back. Alternatively, knowing of a legitimate, honest jeweler would help as well. Does anyone have any suggestions for local jewelers who can do this work and are considered to be honest?
  16. If you book through agoda, and you click the banner ad when it shows up, a small commission goes to this board once you've departed from your stay. I can't tell who booked, but for all those that have, I thank you. It's been about a year now, and I'm going to get the first commission payment for $200 in a few days. That will pay for almost 2 months of the server...after 1 year, that's not self-sustaining, but if you guys keep using it, it helps!
  17. He accessed Agoda both ways, apparently, and compared the prices. Not sure how the comparison worked out though. He'd have to tell you that himself.
  18. Since 2004, the interface has changed, so I am making a few corrections to this post (in red)
  19. Okay, virus removed again, and hopefully the code that reinfects has been found and neutralized as well. Please try accessing ptalk from google search to see if you get redirected again.
  20. Yes, that's one route to go. At the moment, I am still working on a low cost web server solution to lower expense...plugging away at it still.
  21. When crossing where the traffic is stopped, I always peek around the car that I'm in front of for any oncoming motorbike traffic using the gap I am about to cross.
  22. Have you tried formatting your hard disk and reinstalling your operating system?
  23. What days and times is the market open? It looks like a good one..some yummy stuff for sale there, and I could use a haircut too..
