E-mail Scams

Friday, November 2nd, 2007

Canada Revenue Agency issues alert about email scams. So please donch fall pry to any of these email scams and become a victim. How do ppl fall into these kinda scam .. i donch know. Recently I too received an email from “paypal” asking me to log in and verify my account because of excessive withdrawal.

I knew immediately that it was a scam.. because i never drew out any money from my PayPal.  Secondly, pointing your mouse over the link they ask you to click on .. and follow isn’t one that lead to PayPal at all.  So there itself should send a red alert to everyone.. out there.  But of course, some wouldn’t know.. because they would never suspect anything otherwise.  But folks out there with paypal account, please do not be a victim .. or gullible, make sure you write to Paypal directly .. before you even think of doing anything.. on somebody else’s website.

 

2 charged after Ont. newborn taken from hospital

Friday, November 2nd, 2007

“Abduction charges have been laid against a man and a woman after a day-old baby was taken from a hospital in the northern Ontario city of Sudbury, sparking a nationwide alert and seven-hour search.”

I’m just glad they found the baby and gonna charged the couple.. and charged hard they should.  Because no parents new or old.. should be subjected to this kinda scary moments.  Can you imagine.. what they are gonna be like from now on..?? paranoid.. and fearing every moment for their newborn .. and even when the baby girl is older.. they will continue to be paranoid.. and not trust anyone.  Because I for one would turn into this way.

 

Designer Scrubs

Friday, November 2nd, 2007

My mother-in-law is into Medical Scrubs big time.. whenever we visit her, she is in one of them, especially when she have to work in the gardens during the summer. Now don’t get it wrong.. my mother-in-law is definitely not working at the hospital at all.. and never have had. So i asked her.. “whats up with the scrubs..??” and her reply..?? “they are comfy..!!” My mother-in-law does alot of gardening though and she definitely needed something comfortable and easy to move about when she does her chores.

Now if my mother-in-law is into these scrub because they are comfy, my vet and the people working at the veterinary office should check out Katherine Heigl Scrubs, instead of wearing just white overalls, they are definitely so much more friendlier.. and more comfy i would think.

Nurses wearing the appropriate scrubs is very important especially if you are working in the children section. Nursing Scrubs with pastel colors.. just to make them look friendlier to the children who are sick in the hospital and really they also looked less intimidating to me too.. so it’s really cool.

Nothing merry about Noel in Maritimes

Friday, November 2nd, 2007

Well, it looks like Hurricane Noel is aiming for the Maritimes. So we’ve canceled our plans to eat our way up to Halifax. What a bummer..!! Hurricane Noel is expected to be a post-tropical storm by the time it reaches the region on Saturday, but forecasters say it will still pack a wallop.  A good fall storm is what is expected here but we hear that it usually hits Halifax more than Y-Town.

So if you donch see me online during the weekend.. it just means that the lines are all down.  Yes.. we are still living in the 70s here.. where all wires and lines are above ground.  Yah.. and they can afford to build a $6 million building but not fixed those damn lines.

“Nasty’ weather weekend for Atlantic Canada

Friday, November 2nd, 2007

“Atlantic Canada could be in for a major fall storm this weekend as Noel, which strengthened to a hurricane Thursday, is on track to pass directly over the region, bringing high winds and heavy rains.”

We haven’t had any storm warning yet.. but we just may have to cancel our plans for the weekend break..because Halifax usually gets hit harder than us.. if anything does come. When they had Hurricane Juan a few years ago.. in Halifax.. we didn’t get any here in Y-town.. and for the sake of safety reasons.. we might not head up to Halifax. Bummer..! but better safe than sorry.

Unfair Banking Charges

Friday, November 2nd, 2007

For those living or working in UK, you might find this bit of news about banking in UK good news for you. Court action has been filed against several banks, claiming unfair bank charges, particularly when it comes to bounced checks and overdraft charges. I am sure all of us have been charged with overdraft charges before and in fact others like transfer fees when it doesnt’ reached destination.  The bank charges you a big fee for these ‘transactions’, but in fact it really only costs the bank only a fraction of that amount. This lawsuit is brought about to help clients who had these “transaction” fee unfairly withdrawn from their accounts. They are not sure how long the process will take, but proceedings are expected to start early next year. Credit cards and department store charge cards will not be affected by this ruling.

Thank God..!
