Banks, identity theft and social engineering - Karen

http://karen2205.livejournal.com/721223.html

Banks, identity theft and social engineering - Karen. June 15th, 2014. Banks, identity theft and social engineering. One of the things that keeps us safe from fraud/identity theft/other crimes of deception is the ability to think "wow there, something's not right here" and act on that feeling that something isn't right and at least needs further investigation. They don't need to know who is asking that question! So no, banks:. 3 Publish your contact information. All of it. If a text message claim...Pleas...

A Day out - Rural Ramblings of the Third Kind

http://ruralrob.livejournal.com/702400.html

A Day out - Rural Ramblings of the Third Kind. Jan 24th, 2011 09:36 am. First of all, it was incredibly cold in the city yesterday. It’s cold here in Nanookville this morning too -26C or -15F. Jeepers! Then cabbed it across town it was way too cold to wait for streetcars - to see The King’s Speech at the Market Square cinemas (see above). Loved it. It’s just plain good old fashioned story-telling, well told, well made. Colin Firth is truly amazing, totally inhabiting the title role. As a side note, we we...

Rails on track - The Cravatman Chronicle

http://cravatman.livejournal.com/171596.html

30 day music meme. Got dragged out (OK, not totally unwillingly) to see a gig at Kings Cross last night - The Rails, who, I soon discovered, are basically a duo featuring Kami Thompson (RIchard and Lindas youngest) and her husband James Walbourne, who has a glowing CV including being guitarist in The Pretenders. Great night, now adjusting to it being Wednesday with work to do. 5th-Feb-2014 05:08 pm (UTC). That sounds so good! 5th-Feb-2014 06:49 pm (UTC). Leave a Comment to the Entry.

Up The Junction - The Cravatman Chronicle

http://cravatman.livejournal.com/170799.html

30 day music meme. Being rather unliterary and thus not a reader of novels I wasnt really aware of Nell Dunns book Up The Junction or the 1965 B&W TV dramatisation of it, despite me being a hound for all things mid-1960s. I was reminded of this clip the other day however, and was delighted to find it on YouTube. Dennis Waterman, in particular, is outstanding in this film. 18th-Jan-2014 10:15 am (UTC). Like Dickens, I think Nell Dunn had an agenda with her book of highlighting social issues, and she did t...

I'm dreaming of a dry Christmas... - The Cravatman Chronicle

http://cravatman.livejournal.com/169853.html

I'm dreaming of a dry Christmas. I'm dreaming of a dry Christmas. 30 day music meme. Catteshall Lane on Christmas morning. Ive seen this flood before, but not to this degree. I had to wade home from the pub on Christmas Eve, all ways were blocked by water unless I fancied a route march. Took the short route, and turned my ankle over for the privilege. The Leathern Bottle was seriously flooded during the night, by the time I got there with camera in the morming things had subsided.

What I did on my short tour of England. Are you Derby in disguise? Villa 4 Bolton 0. There's only one Kevin Keegan'. Aston Villa 3 Sheffield Utd 0. 30 day music meme. What I did on my short tour of England. Finally got away on my minor tour of Blighty on Tuesday afternoon. Are you Derby in disguise? So sang the Holte End faithful to Birmingham City FC at the truly spectacular Villa vs. Blues game this lunchtime. Is this really my 10 year old son? Villa Park, Birmingham. Villa 4 Bolton 0.

Phew - Slightly mythical at the best of times

http://glitterboy1.livejournal.com/707964.html

Phew - Slightly mythical at the best of times. March 14th, 2013. 12:48 am - Phew. I'm exhausted, and it's all the Pope's fault. No, really, it is. For once, I'd escaped from work early, and headed over to the gym, not even thinking about the goings-on in Rome. I climbed onto the exercise bike, switched the control panel to show BBC News - and discovered that there was white smoke already! I had to keep pedalling. The windows opened, and Cardinal Tauran stepped out to announce the decision. The world ...

Home of the Original McDingo. Is that another name you're dropping there McDingo? Is that another name you're dropping there McDingo? In much happier news, Im currently sat about 4 meters from childhood hero Adrian Edmonson and the Bad Shepherds. Stunning stuff. 11/6/11 09:41 pm (UTC).

Grin and bear it. Come and share it. Yes yes dear dear. Jan 1st, 2009. Two friends-listers have resolved to cut back on their Diet Coke drinking.
