thailand - live like a king for next to nothing

[Wesley Harms]

Anyone have any suggestions of where would be a nice place to live for a few months to a year or so? I want Sun, sea and internet, that's about it.

I've been looking for a while now but it's harder than I thought to stick a pin in the map. I think I'd prefer Europe so I don't have the hassle of getting a visa and ease of getting home if needed/wanted etc. Was looking at places on the South coast of Spain but I really am clueless with this sort of thing. Anyone lived in somewhere in South Spain before?


Any suggestions/recommendations/help appreciated, thanks.

Yup quiet easily. He takes your PS3 goes home and opens up a non receipt claim. You have to supply a tracking number showing delivery to his house. Did he pay you as a gift or goods? I only accept cash if someone is collecting

ordered on adverts, paid as instant money payment, doesnt say anything else. got positive feedback all round, and lives over the road from me, will be delivering it to him rather than letting him collect,.

If the money is on its way out of my account to bank account already, it could still be pulled back?

He can still burn you even after you have the cash in your hands, paypal can put your account into the red for it & its in there terms you & everyone with an account agreed to & they collect the usual ways, debt collectors, courts, late fee's etc

The safest way which definitly cant get you burnt is have someone pay then get them to open a dispute. Then have them close it themselves. This cannot be reversed as you cannot file a second dispute for the same item or reopen a claim

It can still be cancelled if someone like me decides to place a limitation on your account. i.e when the funds are pending. But since you are going to his house then there is 0 chance it's a scam.

I thought it was alright, a lot more open an honest than nearly every other piece I've ever read, apart from the stuff about taking problem gamblers aside, that shit happens once in a blue moon.

10pm

At a roulette table across the room, an elderly Indian man, who goes by the nickname Singh, spreads chips into 15 stacks across the board. Number 30 comes up; there’s nothing on it. The chips are swept away. He pulls a handful of €5 counters from his pocket......Singh is a 76-year-old who comes here a few times a month, typically to bet €100 “out of habit”.

12.30am

Singh is back at the roulette table. “Losing,” he grunts. As the wheel spins on, he piles up chips.

The dealer says “all bets” five times before Singh stops. He wins, though appears indifferent – possibly because the reward amounts to exactly what he started with(€100?? some odd maths here). And so it goes: over and over with hypnotic regularity until the returns diminish and luck peters out. With a heavy sigh, Singh decides to call it a night and cashes out with €50.

Accurate description of a poker tournament?

It’s currently rolling towards the 10th round, with 14 players left and the ante up to €100 (Paddy Hicks was eliminated in the fifth round).

The whole explanation of the tournament was arseways imo. There was some serious bad writing, nevermind the inaccuracies. It was just all wrong.
Also the opening paragraph I'm sure was ripped off a De Niro soliloquy/narration in Casino.

The main problem with the article is it just confirms the average joe's opinion that anyone who goes to a casino is a degenerate gambler with an addiction.

Yeah I know what you mean. I guess I just liked how he wrote about the degenerates without making the place sound like it was a grotto(even though it mentioned the overworn carpet or whatever)

can you convert the file to another format?

[DeadParrot]

yeah i downloaded this file but it doesnt seem to do anything, do i download it to the media drive or my desktop it comes up as a rom file and i cant run it

what's the extension of the file?
if it is an iso you might need to mount it using daemon tools on a virtual drive to run

[Zod]

It will play most video files, although I have had the occational problem with some mp4 files, and it will not play mkv-files, unfortunately. Mp3-files and all picture formats go without problems.File transfer is done swiftly and without problems via my PC running Vista Home 32 bits, and actually functions as a very large external harddisk, trough USB2 cable.

ok
When you got the device, it came with a cd
the management software on the cd, which should be installed on your machine should be able to open the .rom file to update the firmware once connected by usb

or

Put .rom file in the root directory of player, disconnect it from pc,turn on the player

Need help with a quick accounting theory question, presume it's very basic but can't find it anywhere. Cheers.

Explain how the materials system within a factory enable the indirect materials to be allocated to different departments.

Any help appreciated. Cheers.

If this is management accounting, I think its Activity Based Costing.

Any help appreciated. Cheers.

The way we learnt it in our Management Accounting module you can use either Activity Based Costing or Job Costing.

Job costing is where you take your total overheads (light, heat, rent, whatever) and divide it by either Total Direct Labour Hours or Total Direct Machine Hours (whichever is more intensively used in the product your producing). You then say right, this product takes 2 Direct Labour/Machine (whichever is appropriate) Hours so along with direct material cost and direct labour cost we'll add (Total Overhead/Total Labour or Machine Hours)*(Direct Labour/Machine Hours used in the unit). This way you account for overheads when you're pricing your products or services.

Activity Based Costing is when the overheads are subdivided and you use more intuitive "cost drivers" to allocate overheads to individual products instead of bog standard DLH and DMH. So say you have a taxi company and you have 500k worth of overheads per year, 250k of which are repairs. You'd take that 250k, divide it by the total number of repairs per year to find the cost of 1 repair and then you can figure out how much each taxi is costing you in overhead.

Dunno what the materials system bit refers to so I could've missed the mark here totally.
