		<description>"Mizar, isn’t Mizar the name of the star in the Big Dipper on the handle that is closest to the dipper part? The fifth star if naming them from the tip of the dipper? Maybe I just deciphered your handle."

Very good, cmm, you have nearly deciphered it. But for more specific results, google the entire phrase Mizar 5 and see what it yields.</description>

		<description>Finally I can speak... ;-)

I wouldn't put Korea on the same list as Thailand, but then again I'm not a sex tourist.  I have lived in Asia and traveled a bit.  I remember seeing a news story where Vancouver is a sex tourism destination... so any place can be, certainly Las Vegas is.

I was in Phnom Phen or however you spell it, staying in a 'sports bar' that a Norwegian girl had recommended to me.  It was called the Walkabout.  Needless to say I got sick, Phnom Phen is the biggest hole I've ever visited, it is most definitely not the Prague of South East Asia as some article recently tried to portray it.  

Anyway I'm totally ill, by myself and I'm sitting at the bar, drinking gingerale listening to the other punters moan the decline of the sex tourism industry just about everywhere.  One guy lamented the decline of sex tourism industry, each touting a different locale: the Phillipeans, another some country in Africa.  They didn't seem to be too happy being in Cambodia with a girl on each arm drinking 50 cent beer.

I guess the life used to be more glamourous.  :-)

Right now some Vancouverite is in jail in SE Asia as the Germans reversed the filter he used to scramble his face in pictures posted on the internet.

This just in, if you travel to a foreign country specifically to have sex with underage people, don't post pictures of it on the internet...

I have read how the Japanese are going to China for 'business trips' and I kinda know where the red light district was in Beijing, but it was really just a bar district, there were restaurants and real sports bars and places with live music.  But there were also touters in the streets offering to take you to "lady bar" or maybe that is just the Thai term.

Anyway I think Thailand is still in the lead thought parts of East Europe also remain popular.  Korea is a lot more classy and high tech, certainly not like Phnom Phen, you couldn't ride a moto there without being offered the big three:

Ganja, Bang Bang, and Boom Boom

The first one should be pretty obvious, bang bang refers to the ability to go outside the city limits and blow shit up with an AK-47 or a grenade.  Boom boom apparently is what you ask for in the streets to find a lady or a boy.  

Or you could just ask the bartender and punters, heck they came knocking on my room door at the Walkabout...

Man was I ill for a couple days there.  :-)</description>

		<description>Finally!  Corea now has a #1 international ranking in something of merit.  I expect front page headlines of this throughout the next 5 days on the Chosun Ibo.</description>

		<description>" I think China will win this race. My colleagues (old job, new job, young colleagues, old colleagues, all male) have consistently talked China up as THE place to go for the dubious “golfing trip” with their buddies. “Pretty girls at only a fraction of the price!” "

Of course China will win the race, being generally less xenophobic than Koreans.  And there is also much less racial discrimination.</description>

		<description>cmm,

LOL, we love garlic! Almost every dish we have involves the thing one way or the other. I'm thinking, maybe it's because we're not fond of the red chili stuff found on kimchi and other local dishes here. Dunno how much that can affect one's smell. :)</description>
