Protect Your Personal Data on the Internet

Web site clones can entrap the unwary. They really look legitimate, but are used by hackers to steal personal data. Example: One criminal cloned the site of an Internet Service Provider (ISP) and sent out E-mails asking customers to visit their ISP to confirm credit card data. Each E-mail contained a link to the phony site, where the hacker stole credit card numbers.

Your self-defense is to check a domain name using the WHOIS program, www.nsi.com. Type in the site’s Web address to see who operates it. If details do not match those of the legitimate site you wanted to visit, then you should not entertain that email, or stay away from it. One important thing also is to use Mozilla Firefox browser to which you have to check the website concern's SQL (you can do it by hovering your mouse to the circle just on the left side near of URL, if it says " This website does not supply identity information" then, you must be alarmed! Yes, be alarmed!

Only today, my dearie friend told me that she has an email from Paypal and was asking her to update her bank information or credit card information. Good thing, she knows it is not the legit PayPal. So, what she did was forward the email to PayPal, and had a great reply from them. They thanked her for forwarding that email and they told her that they would definitely investigate who operate such kind of Internet Mail (email).

So, be alarmed! Be cautious and exercise your guts and instinct! We know that our world is full of trickery, so be wary (or else you'll be sorry)!

Poor Vision

As we get older, normal changes occur that affect our vision. In addition to a general decline in eyesight, you may find that you are more sensitive to glare, find it harder to see things in dim light and that your field of vision is not as wide as it used to be. Cataracts and glaucoma are the common problems of eyesight, and it is easy to understand how changes in your vision can increase your chances of a fall.

Obviously, if you are very nearsighted, you might not notice that the corner of a rug is turned up. However, it is not always obstacles in your way that cause a fall. Other common causes are flooring transitions. For example, from carpet to a slippery tile floor or small changes in the elevation of what appears to be level ground, a patio stone that has been slightly upheaved. So, if your vision is poor, always be mindful of your surroundings and be observant of the surface you are walking on.

RV Repair, Etc

 RV for Recreational Vehicle. Meaning, it is not for commercial purposes but for recreation. Family recreation, that is. It is a luxury vehicle in general meaning. Ah, what a cool one to own an RV. Do you have one? I don't have any for myself/family and even haven't ride on it. Waaaa! :-) I can just imagine and wondering. But of course like any other vehicle it is capable of some damages and maintenance. That is expected. Good thing it is not hard to get an rv repair shop or people who will do the thing to make it sound and in good condition as always. Family cannot risk it in just a lowly kind of company and hands to do such repair. It must be great one to keep family safe in the road.

Signs

Have you seen signage like "Do not pull or it will explode", "Don't open", "Keep safe. We have dogs, it will only take 1 kilo of yours" or alike? For sure you do because it is everywhere especially in urban areas, of course rural areas have it too! Now, I would believe if you do not know how to read or even see a safety signs or image of it. Ah! I believe "Ignorance excuses no one" , so better be aware for your own safety and people around. Do not you ever be stubborn or authorities will put you in jail or even tied you up. Ha! :-) It is there because it is for safety purposes, so follow it.
