HUA HIN, THAILAND A spate of attacks by elephants in the region are thought to have been triggered by the increasing intrusion by humans on the land and roads, as well as a growing disregard for the animals and their habitat when people are visiting. In the first ten days of this year, a wild bull elephant has damaged four vehicles and caused alarm among tourists at Khao Yai National Park. On Saturday, just as a family arrived at the park to celebrate National Children’s Day, the elephant put two feet on their car’s hood. The hood was badly dented and the windshield fractured. On 1st January, the elephant damaged three vehicles. It stomped on a pickup causing a big dent, while another pickup and a taxi sustained minor damage. Fortunately, no one has been harmed in these two encounters with the big pachyderm. However last month, an elephant fatally attacked Poonsap Noknuam, 65, while she was heading home with her husband on a motorcycle on the Hua Hin-Pa La Ou Road. A passer-by chased the elephant away by honking a horn, but Poonsap died on her way to a hospital. Patarapol Maneeorn, a government veterinarian who has monitored elephants and other wild animals at the park, said elephants normally did not attack vehicles but this one might be stressed. “In the mating season, the elephant might have developed some stress. Moving vehicles might have added to the tension,” he said. Locals believe wild elephants can become aggressive because teenagers on bikes challenge or tease them with loud honks, while the amount of traffic has also increased considerably through the park.

TauRuS apr 21 – May 21It may be time to get help for

your fear of public speaking now that it’s tragically prevented you from yelling “Look out!” to yet another group of innocent bystanders.

GeMini May 22 – June 21Somehow, exclaiming “Someone

in this very room is the murderer!” lacks dramatic weight when everyone just saw you beat a guy to death with a tire iron.

CanCeR Jun 22 – Jul 22It’s not as if you have an insatiable

thirst for blood. You’re just insatiably thirsty and blood happens to be what’s around.

LeO Jul 23 – aug 22You’ll meet your own mortality

face-to-face this week and be completely disarmed by his boyish smile, nice suit, and career as an environmental lawyer.

ViRGO aug 23 – Sep 22You’ll be frustrated and mortified

when it turns out there’s no such thing as a professional snipe hunter, but the pay’s good and you get to work a four-day week.

LibRa Sep 23 – Oct 23You’ll be faced with the choice of

either investing in apartment insurance or getting rid of your cat and her thus far undetected fascination with candles.

SCORPiO Oct 24 – nov 21The idea that nothing can offend

you anymore is shattered when you find out what atrocities George Lucas has in store for the 40th anniversary of Star Wars.

SaGiTTaRiuS nov 22 – Dec 21You said you’d retire after one last

job, and 40 years after accepting a minor actuarial position with Amalgamated Loan and Trust, you’re honouring your word.

CaPRiCORn Dec 22 - Jan 19Constantly seeking approval is

unhealthy, but you should still consider the opinions of those nice folks from the Secret Service.

aquaRiuS Jan 20 – Feb 18The verb “tear” is somewhat

misleading here, but certain people and circumstances in your life will in fact combine to give you a new asshole.

PiSCeS Feb 19 – Mar 20You thought you were over her, but

the memories keep flooding back as the scars heal and your brain tissue repairs itself.

aRieS Mar 21 - apr 20While innovative, your plans for a

solar-panel-powered sex machine will fall victim to a wave of scorn and derision.

This week it is..... Grand slamWinning all that’s on offer in a sports competition, e.g. all the tricks in a game of bridge, or the all the major competitions in a sport in a single year - especially associated with tennis and golf. More generally, any all-out achievement.The term originated in the game of bridge. Charles Jones, in hoyle’s Games improved, 1814 explained what slams are in bridge:“These declarations will supersede that of boston [winning the first six tricks] simply... The highest, called Grand Slam, is undertaking to get 13 tricks.”it is most widely known nowadays as the name for the feat of winning all the four major tennis competitions in one year. it is widely reported that the american journalist allison Danzig brought the term grand slam from the card table to the sporting arena, when using it to refer to the achievement by the australian Donald budge in 1938. budge was the first player to win all the major singles tennis competitions in one season and it was widely reported as his ‘grand slam’. The term had been used before to apply to a tennis achievement. in

October 1933, alan Gould, the associated Press Sports editor wrote this for the Fresno bee Republican:“Crawford, already the holder of the australia, French and british singles championships, will make his bid for the first ‘grand slam’ in tennis when he plays Perry tomorrow afternoon for the american title.”Perry in fact won the match.in fact grand slam had also been used for some time prior to that in the sports of golf and baseball. in baseball, a grand slam is a home run hit with all the bases occupied. in golf it is the winning of all the season’s major championships - as in tennis. The first person to achieve a grand slam - in the ‘winning all major championships in one year’ sense, rather from the specialized baseball sense - in any sport was the golfer bobby Jones.The Daily northwestern, november 1930: in the closing year, 1930, he [bobby Jones] had accomplished the impossible - the grand slam of golf - by winning all four major titles.The Syracuse herald, October 1922: “if the Pirates should happen to win it would be the dizziest grand slam by which the Giants ever lost and they have been up against a few in their time.”

DihYDROGen MOnOxiDe anYbODY?Those of you reading this in Thailand will have no choice than to drink bottled water. even if you have one of those posh purifying gadgets at home, there will still be times when you need the bottled stuff.but of course bottled water is also ‘de rigeur’ in places where water straight from the tap is perfectly safe to drink. even now in the depths of our winter, it is common to see people wandering around with their personal water supply, while in the summer consumption reaches epic proportions.big business indeed, and with prices to match in the uK as i discovered recently. normally quite happy to glug my recommended daily dose of h2O from the tap, i needed to take some medication while out and about, and the smallest cheapest bottle to hand cost 89 pence for 250 ml. Call it 90 pence which is around 45 baht.So what do you get in these parts for your money? admittedly a reputedly good brand - buxton natural Mineral water, with a clever lid which prevents the water slopping down your front on the bus and probably makes up some 95 % of the cost.Otherwise the ingredients bear an uncanny resemblance to our mains supply, including all the ‘iums’ - calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, as well as the naturally occurring chlorides, sulphates and nitrates.a comparison with the published ingredients from a typical uK water company shows that although fluoride is added to our mains supplies, naturally occurring aluminium and iron are often removed. Which leaves only the possibility of some contamination by lead, copper and zinc, any of which may still be present in domestic piping. So if we had universal blue plastic pipes here there should be no risk at all.isn’t it strange that Thailand has the perfect piping solution with little means of ensuring drinkable water to pass through it?

This year we will be taking an occasional look at some people of note from hull. Yes - there have been a few believe it or not!Our first is the fearless and ground breaking amy Johnson. born in hull in 1903, amy began flying planes as a hobby, and quickly became a skilled pilot, making her first solo flight after only 16 hours tuition.by the age of 26 she had added a ground engineers licence to her pilots licence, the first woman in the uK to do so, and went on to become an aviation pioneer, setting several long distance flying records.it seems to have been inevitable that when World War 2 began amy would put her skills in the air to good use, and it was while delivering an aircraft for the air Transport auxiliary that she was killed in January 1941 when her plane went down in the Thames.This weeks word is yet another ‘ium’. Caesium. a soft, silvery chemical element.

This should be a great game with both sides having so much attacking flair, while both regularly exhibit defensive frailties, so there could well be a few goals. We are plumping for the form team, Arsenal, to pip the reigning champions by the odd goal.

a spokesman for La Galaxy said, “We have high hopes that Steven Gerrard will spend two years with us scoring roughly five goals in a mildly anticlimactic end to a distinguished career.”The club are expecting to do a brisk business in shell suits, fake moustaches and permed wigs, and are already taking reservations for their ‘Learn how to understand Stevie G’ lessons.
