Northeast Thai Girls Run Fake Pregnacy Scam

Northeast Thai Girls Run Fake Pregnacy Scam

According to Thai-language newspaper Kom Chud Leuk, bar girls in Northeast (Isaan) Thailand have discovered a new trick to extract money from their foreigner sugar daddies by pretending that they get “knocked up”.
It might sound like the same old story but not any more.  According to some reports Isaan girls have added a new twist – injecting a chemical substance into their stomach in order to look like they really are pregnant. This unknown substance will reportedly inflate their stomach a few weeks after the injection and another substance is needed to flatten it.  One shot is priced at only Bt3,000 (about $US100.00) and not very hard to find.
The main rationale for the pregnancy scam, say some of the girls who have succeeded with the trick, is to obtain commitment, money or even escape from forced marriages.
Gaew, 22, a university student who succeeded in her scheme said that she managed to blackmail the wife of the man who had a crazy crush on her. After she got her belly job done she telephoned his wife and bargained for some hundreds of thousands of baht for her abortion and for leaving him alone.
In another case Som, 20, a university student in the Isaan region, used the same scam to get out of an arranged marriage her parents were attempting to force her into.  Now she can finally publicly date the man she is really in love with.
Who says pretty Thai girls can’t be clever as well?  At least, they know how to make some real Baht.

Personal Chauffeur Service Provides Professional Mom Convenient, Productive Travel for Weekend Trip

Personal Chauffeur Service Provides Professional Mom Convenient, Productive Travel for Weekend Trip

           Opting to drive long distance rather than flying.  Sounds a little crazy, doesn’t it? That’s what one Corporate America mom, Shannon Craig,  decided was a better decision for her trip to Lake Havasu, Arizona from Costa Mesa, California.  She chose Drive4Me Personal Chauffeur Service.
           Shannon was headed to Lake Havasu for the weekend.  Before she could go, she needed to drop off her daughter to a family member 40 miles away from her home and also had a deadline to meet for a project she was working on.  Just looking at flights was already a nightmare: sky-high last-minute fares that did not match her schedule in the slightest, and to top it off no direct flights from surrounding airports (whether from Orange County, Los Angeles, or even San Diego).
            But she found a simple solution to her troubles.  After a quick search on the internet, she was able to find Drive4Me Personal Chauffeur Service who would be able to drive her in the comfort of her own vehicle to her desired destination.  For a nominal rate of $30 per hour (beyond half the rate of a town car/sedan service), Shannon was able to make a last minute reservation the day before she needed to be in Arizona.   Drive4Me Personal Chauffeur is fully insured and certified, and all personal drivers undergo thorough background investigations, motor vehicle record audits and drug testing so Shannon was able to book with confidence.
            Shannon’s personal driver arrived at her residence early, as all Drive4Me chauffeurs do, in case she was ready to begin her trip before the scheduled time.  From Costa Mesa, she was able to take her daughter to her relative’s home for the weekend in Riverside without having to take hold of the steering wheel at all.  To make things even more convenient, Riverside was just a quick pit stop on their way to Lake Havasu. 
En route to her destination, Shannon worked diligently to meet her project deadline.  She was able to listen to her favorite music while the chauffeur took care of driving.  Her personal chauffeur was there to ensure that her trip was comfortable and stopped whenever she requested for coffee, restroom breaks, or just to stretch and to refresh herself. 
The total drive time was approximately 6 hours long.  Compare that to airline fares she researched, which would have taken the same amount of time considering a layover in Phoenix, Arizona from Orange County Airport before landing in Lake Havasu.  And avoiding the airlines, she did not have to deal with airport parking or unprofessional taxi drivers and the possibility of a delayed flight.  Had she taken a flight, Shannon would have had to constantly start and stop her work during arrivals, departures, layovers, et al. She even saved some money by hiring a chauffeur service!
           Once Shannon was dropped off in Lake Havasu, she required for her vehicle to be dropped off at point of origination (Costa Mesa, CA).  Her personal chauffeur took a short break before heading on the trip back.  The personal driver kept in contact with her at various points during his trip back.  When Shannon’s vehicle was returned to her residence, a final follow-up call was made to her so that she could enjoy the rest of her weekend without worry.
           Convenience: not having to deal with and fret over the troubles of modern day flying; traveling in the comfort of your own vehicle; making sure your family is taken care of; being able to spend a time with your girlfriends; and most of all, for this professional mom, being able to enjoy a leisure weekend without stressing over a deadline because Drive4Me Chauffeur Service was able to provide you with the most productive driving time you’ve ever had.

Pay a Visit to the Miami Seaquarium

Pay a Visit to the Miami Seaquarium

Miami has so much for you to see and do it can be difficult to find a place to begin. But regardless of whether you are visiting with the family or just on your own, you should definitely make time to see the Miami Seaquarium.

This is a huge venue that takes up nearly forty acres of land and it is very easy to reach from downtown Miami. The best thing about it is that it provides an educational visit as well as one that everyone really enjoys. You’ll certainly leave knowing a lot more about marine mammals and fish than you did when you arrived.

There are various shows which form a part of the entertainment you can look forward to on the day. For example you can watch a killer whale take part in a special show that gives you an idea of the sheer size and skills it has. And of course no visit would be complete without seeing the dolphins showing off their incredible intelligence. You may not know that the dolphin pool was used in the filming of the famous television show, “Flipper”, as well.

Make sure you grab a map as you enter the Miami Seaquarium, as this will show you where all the exhibits and shows are. You can then plan a route round the venue that takes in all the show times as well as the rest of the exhibits.

There is a sea lion show there too, which always draws the crowds as it tends to be quite amusing to watch. Salty the sea lion definitely likes playing to a crowd, so make sure you go along to see the display.

The Seaquarium is really a half day out experience, and when you need to stop for a break you will find plenty of places to do just that. There are eating places and seating areas provided along the way, so you can enjoy seeing everything and taking time out for a bite to eat as well. The park is nicely spread out and no matter which route you take you will see everything you need to see without missing anything out.

As well as the more traditional sea lions and dolphins, you can also come up close to crocodiles and alligators while you are in the park. It’s all quite safe of course, but it will probably still send shivers up your spine!

If you want to stay in downtown Miami you will find lots of Miami hotels that you can book a room in. This is an ideal position from which to enjoy everything that Miami has to offer, including the Miami Seaquarium and all the creatures it holds within.
