Affiliate networks capable of sending millions of spam SMS messages every day
London, 17 January, 2013 - AdaptiveMobile, the world leader in mobile security, today sheds light on the extent of a new global SMS spam threat that may soon be coming to the UK. According to AdaptiveMobile's Ongoing Threat Analysis (OTA) which examines mobile security threats from around the world, UK consumers should to be on the lookout for fraudulent spam texts informing them they have won a free Apple product such an iPad, iPhone or MacBook.
The texts frequently include a web address that looks like it is from Apple but upon closer inspection is not a legitimate Apple website and are sent from US mobiles numbers (+1-XXX-XXX-XXXX).
"Congratulations! You are Australia's WINNER OF THE DAY! Go to http://www.apple.au.[redacted].com to claim your prize. Must claim within 24 hrs."
"Your phone was randomly chosen as Apple's Over-Stock iWinner. Go to http://ie.appleoverstock.[redacted] & type code 2872 to win your Free Gift-Card now!"
The links typically lead to a reverse auction site where people can bid on high end consumer products for a fraction of their normal price.
"SMS is still one of the most popular ways of communicating via mobile and is highly trusted which makes it very attractive to spammers," says Ciaran Bradley, VP of Handset Security, AdaptiveMobile. "Over the last 6 months consumers in New Zealand , Australia, Netherlands, Denmark, Austria, Portugal, Switzerland and Ireland have received hundreds of thousands of these spam texts but so far the UK has not been targeted.".
The spam texts are emanating from the US where spammers are moving from email to SMS due to the availability of low cost, international unlimited SMS packages. A highly connected eco-system based around affiliate marketing that is unique to the US has started to emerge, where advertisers offering products which are frequently of dubious value, are using companies known as affiliate networks to drive traffic to their website or increase sales. The affiliate network in turn uses its members, known as affiliates, to promote these offers to consumers and in return the advertiser will pass on a fee to the affiliates and networks for each sale or sign up. Each successful signup can generate £1.50 for an affiliate.
Unscrupulous affiliates are beginning to illegally use SMS as a way to promote these offers by purchasing large numbers of phone contacts from list owners who may charge as little as $400 (approx. £250) for 100,000 numbers - with some list owners holding up to 190 million numbers - and "blasting" up to one million spam messages per day in order to maximise the number of leads and sales. They may send the messages themselves or hire it as a service from people specialising in blasting large numbers of text messages. Some affiliates can earn up to $6,000 (approx. £3,700) from sending up to a million text spam each day.
"This advanced eco-system has seen the emergence of affiliate networks that specialise in offers that are illegally promoted by SMS and this nuisance has no respect for international boundaries," continued Bradley. "Although it is growing from the US, it is clearly a threat for operators all over the globe. Whilst many operators already have measures in place to counter this threat, it is important that they are aware and prepared for the continuing and escalating scope of this issue so that they can take action."
About AdaptiveMobile:
AdaptiveMobile is the world leader in mobile security, enabling trusted networks for the world's largest operator groups and protecting one in six subscribers globally. AdaptiveMobile provides Operators with the most comprehensive network-based security solutions enabling them to protect their consumer and enterprise customers against the growing threat of mobile abuse. www.adaptivemobile.com

Speaking with Dawn Elsbree, the director of the Headwaters Fund to inform her of our intent to apply for a grant, she stopped me saying "We don't fund those types of projects." Incredulously I responded that one of the industry areas the fund lists is forestry -- that the fund was established to help offset losses to timber workers! She informed me that the fund had changed its original purpose, focusing instead on job creation, and education, and the union project would not qualify. Although I tried to convince her otherwise, she was insistent that it would be a waste of time.
After further research, I discovered that at least one of the fund board members works for Simpson Lumber and the California Redwood Company, management companies (the 1% ...) that negotiate against the timber workers, often taking jobs and revenue out of Humboldt! It is extremely frustrating that no county supervisor deems it important to have even one person representing the people for whom the fund was established on the board, and see no conflict of interest in discouraging projects designed to benefit them.

Bainimarama Tags First Turtle
Fijian Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama saluted the Dau Ni Vonu (turtle monitors) network in bolstering the work of turtle conservation in Fiji, while tagging and releasing his first turtle on Yadua Island in Bua province recently.
Far flung, Yadua off the main coast of Vanua Levu, the second largest island in Fiji, is a main nesting site for sea turtles and project site for WWF South Pacific's Marine Species Programme.
Bainimarama was on the island to open a housing scheme, when he was invited by the Dau Ni Vonu network on the island to tag a turtle, which had been caught the night before on Yadua Taba reef for the special occasion.
It was a high moment for turtle conservation as the leader of the Fijian government tagged and released the female, hawksbill turtle that he named Adi Venikau.
The name Adi Venikau is reminiscent of the era when he and other civil servants accompanying him, were primary school students using pencils, and the journey to the echelons of leadership.
As he tagged Adi Venikau, Bainimarama hailed the DnV programme that was setup by WWF South Pacific in 2010 with various turtle nesting site communities, saying that turtle conservation has made strides because of it.
He added that the DnV supports the national goal of increasing the sea turtle population.
He said he hoped his action would serve as a good example to other Fijians to support the work of turtle conservation and protect sea turtles.
Sustainable resource management is a goal of the Fijian Government highlighted under the auspices of Pillar 5 of the Peoples Charter of Achieving Economic Growth while Ensuring Sustainability. A result of that is the appointment of conservation officers attached to each of the 14 provinces, providing expert guidance on natural resource management.
Accompanying the Prime Minister on his trip to Yadua was the new conservation officer for Bua province Eferemo Kubunavanua.
Leader of the turtle monitors on Yadua Island Pita Qarau said they were elated that the Prime Minister had accepted their invitation because of the awareness that would explode around the issue of turtle conservation.
Qarau was on the mark, for there has been a flurry of media highlights of the tagging since.
It was an emotional moment for the head of the Vanua Yadua, the Turaga Tunimata Jone Cakau and his people when AdiVenikau crawled back into the ocean.
"Its always been that way, from the very first turtle that was tagged in 2010 when the DnV program first began here on the island to now with the Prime Minister, we've always felt emotional to see another turtle tagged," he said.
"The turtles are our friends and they swim around Yadua, come and nest on the beaches and depend on us for their protection so another turtle tagged is a success of the programme that has really changed the attitudes of all islanders."
Qarau said on the island everyone is a turtle monitor at heart, although WWFSouth Pacific has facilitated a special training regime with five of the villagers, an indication of the overwhelming support for turtle conservation inspired with the spread of the turtle gospel.
"We are all turtle monitors now, from the head of the Vanua to the children because we all support the protection of turtles," he said.
"On this island, no one goes fishing for turtle for food, we only go out to catch turtles for tagging purposes," he said.
Twenty three turtles have been tagged since 2010, seven with satellite tags. Some have since come back to Yadua. The main purpose of tagging is to track the migration path of sea turtles, identify critical habitats for protection and as a means of awareness and advocacy with communities. Long term tag data can also illustrate population status.
Marine Species Program Coordinator Laitia Tamata is glad that turtle monitors have taken a bold step in raising awareness about turtle conservation with the invitation extended to the Prime Minister.
"One realises that the monitors understands the intricacies of turtle conservation especially the need to carry out awareness on a national scale and if it is seen that a leader like the Prime Minister is championing the cause, the influence it will have on others is undeniable," he said.
"Within their communities turtle monitors have changed mindsets signifying the success of turtle conservation with people making a conscious choice to protect turtles.
"Now the monitors have moved beyond the confines of their own communities and are advocating on a national scale, knowing that a challenge they continue to face is poaching within nesting sites.
"The presence of a market for turtle meat, albeit under the radar of enforcement agencies, can undermine the work of turtle conservation as people continue to harvest them willy-nilly, thus the urgentneed to reach out to everyone."
Northern division Fisheries Department head, Joji Vuakaca confidently noted that turtle harvesting is on the decline because of intensive awareness on the issue.
"The message is carried everywhere, in all the district meetings, and the provincial council sittings of the three provinces – Cakaudrove, Bua and Macuata," he said.
"And having the Prime Minister tag a turtle reinforces the message."

America's two-faced tirade against Chinese 'cyberwar'
Most Popular
Hey, kettle. It's pot here, calling to denounce you with evidence you are undermining world peace.
The Obama administration is planning to confront the new leadership in Beijing, according to The New York Times, over the cyberwarfare that the Chinese state is allegedly waging against America and its top corporations.
The evidence? A dubious report by commercial internet security firm Mandiant - which was not peer-reviewed by any independent experts - and which has generated so much free publicity for them by accusing China of being the world's worst cyber-rogue state.
According to the company and now the White House, almost every item on a lengthy, confidential list of IP addresses - linked to a hacking group that has stolen terabytes of data from US corporations - could be traced to a neighbourhood in Shanghai that hosts the Chinese military's cybercommand. Even Hong Kong's own University of Science and Technology reportedly had a few addresses on the list.
These attacks were presented as sophisticated and state-sponsored. But how sophisticated?
Strangely, these master hackers from China all forgot to hide their internet traces. In fact, they did the opposite: they left their fingerprints all over the crime scene so it could all be traced back to a single People's Liberation Army source in Shanghai! Just how smart could these guys be?
Or perhaps they weren't the real perpetrators. Presumably, any self-respecting hacker or cybercriminal worth his salt would plant false leads and hide tracks so his crime can't be traced back to him. Who would leave behind a long list of IP addresses to implicate himself and pinpoint his location to a single postal address?
To date, the only confirmed act of state-sponsored cyberwarfare has been by the United States and its closest ally, Israel, against Iran's nuclear weapons programme.
Like nuclear weapons (with the Soviets) and weapons of mass destruction (with Iraq), an enemy is needed before Washington can legitimise the development of new military capability or go to war … or launch drone assassinations - oh, sorry, I meant targeted killings - that have caused thousands of deaths, many of them innocent bystanders, in Yemen, Pakistan and Somalia.
Which is the rogue state?

The fact that the U.S. has done things that Alex doesn't agree with to hostile countries like Iran is neither here nor there. It is irrelevant to the hacking accusations at hand, which are primarily a case of corporate espionage and bring into question what little trust there is between China and the U.S. in the economic sphere.
In 1953, Iranians elected Mohammed Mossadegh to head their government. But BP and CIA couldn't countenance a nationalist who might strip away oil interests of the West. They staged a coupe that overthrew Mossadegh and had him locked away. Reza Pahlavi was then installed as the absolute monarch, who proceeded to spend Iran's oil wealth on US armaments and impoverished his people.
The 1979 revolution brought the cleric Ayatollah Komeini to power. America couldn't stand for it. Under the Reagan-Saddam Hussein alliance, Richard Cheney supported Saddam's eight-year war against Iran with military aid and war materiel, including chemicals needed for manufacturing weapons of mass destruction. 800,000 Iranians perished, with mustard gas claiming countless Iranian victims.
Who has the right to hate the other, the US or Iran? Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the most evil of them all?
In ideological disputes, lies are convenient, but not facts.
FYI Mandiant's founder Kevin Mandia is an ex-military cyber-forensics investigator.
No matter how good Mandiant's computer forensics is, any sophisticated hacker can cover their tracks if needed. Mandiant knows this. But instead, they'd rather create a sensational report that gives them free publicity ahead of their rumored IPO plans.
If this report really is so iron clad, it should be opened up to peer review!
The Wall Street Journal and New York Times have put their credibility behind Mandiant's research. Their articles contain plenty of corroborating evidence. I realize that no amount of evidence is ever going to convince the "patriots" here, but the rest of the world doesn't find China's denials credible in the least.
Also I personally don't consider the New York Times and The Wall Street Journal (owned by News corp now) to be all that credible; Tesla Motors certainly doesn't feel that a New York Times reporter was very honest when reviewing their new electric car.

A reader says, "Dozens if not hundreds of interviews were conducted with people in the US government and private sector who were the victims of these attacks or who were tasked to stop them." He is just as moronic as Hong Kong nitwits who insisted hundreds of students died in Tiananmen because "everyone" said so. Millions and millions said Jesus arose from the dead after 3 days. I suppose that is now a scientific fact.
"Israel and probably the US commited an act of cyber warfare to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon." Right. Who was the enemy with nuclear aspirations when Israel stole at least two shipments of enriched uranium from the US to build its first nuclear devices? Why did Israel attack USS Liberty and kill 33 sailors to hide its initiation of a full attack on Egypt, and later Jordan and Syrian? Where are **** (Richard) Cheney's alleged yellow cake and WMDs?
I suppose both Israel and the US had to avert an "act of war," another word for Lebensraum for Israel at the Arab's expense.
War criminals, or for that matter, people supporting war crimes against humanity, always have their excuses.
No, I have never taken a single course in computer science but had designed a commercial CPU with pipeline architecture as well as the entire instruction set for the microcontroller store in the CPU. Comprende? Verstehen Sie? Now are you satisfied?
The trouble with ignorant China baiters is their own tunnel vision, 坐井觀天.
Elsewhere in this column I just responded to another reader related to Ken Thompson's talk on rootkit malware. But I don't suppose you know who Ken Thompson is or what programmable logic controller rootkit means.
Now you can go back and wallow in your hate China diatribes.

Two seals nursed back to health in Connecticut were returned to the open ocean Thursday in Rhode Island.
The Mystic Aquarium released Curie and Pluto at Blue Shutters Beach in Charlestown.
Curie is a gray seal, and Pluto is a harp seal. They were rescued by animal advocates.
Officials said both animals recovered from their various ailments and were ready for a return to the ocean.
"We finished out the rehab for them and got the joy of doing the release. But the big story was Curie. She had been rescued over a year ago, and due to a very persistent kind of condition, rather than a serious one, she spent a lot of time with us," said Skip Graf of Mystic Aquarium.
Mystic Aquarium's Animal Rescue Program assists marine mammals and sea turtles throughout Rhode Island and Connecticut.

DANA POINT, Calif.—Will anyone blink?
Jason Varitek has never made a secret of his desire to remain a member of the Red Sox. The Red Sox, for their part, have never made a secret of their respect for the catcher's impact on both the pitching staff and clubhouse.
Yet with Varitek now a free agent, he and the only club for whom he has ever played must now figure out if a shared hope can become a reality. In theory, both sides want to continue their relationship, but the details of a potential deal may prove thorny.
Yesterday, agent Scott Boras held court at the G.M. meetings. A soundtrack of cash registers seemingly echoed in the lobby of the St. Regis Monarch Beach hotel as Boras discussed several of his clients, among them Manny Ramirez, Mark Teixeira, Derek Lowe and Varitek.
Varitek is coming off the worst offensive year of his career, having reached or neared career lows in batting average (.220), on-base percentage (.313) and slugging (.359). Those offensive woes left manager Terry Francona struggling to determine whether he should pinch-hit for his catcher during the second half of the season. History, meanwhile, is typically unkind to catchers who are 36 or older.
Even so, Boras—who noted that Varitek, who is amidst a divorce, faced "personal issues off the field that certainly had some impact" on his performance—was not about to suggest that his client would pursue anything other than top dollar. He cited the four-year, $52.4 million deal signed by as a 35-year-old (albeit one who was coming off an historically strong offensive season for a catcher) last winter, as a relevant point of comparison.
"I don't think anyone will dispute that Jason's ability with game-calling and his defensive acumen exceeds that of Posada, and that Posada's offensive acumen exceeds that of Jason," said Boras. "(Posada's deal) is probably representative age-wise and it's also representative of what a player on a winning team—for very different reasons, obviously—why a player gets paid."
Boras focused his assessment of Varitek's worth on the team's won/loss totals when he caught. The agent bristled at the suggestion that his client had suffered through a disappointing season that might adversely impact his value.
"When you talk about Jason's down year, I have to take exception with the terminology because of basically what his assignment is. His grade there may be 70 or 80 percent defensive," said Boras. "Jason Varitek is paid to lead, and paid to get this team to win. His offensive production, while it has certainly been considered in the upper echelon for catchers, I know from the past negotiation we had with Boston that his offense was really a very small part of his value to the franchise…
"The Red Sox won 60 percent of the games that he caught. When you look at it over the last five years, that's basically about the same. When you look at what they did when Jason wasn't catching, they were under .500."
The Sox were 73-47 (.608 winning percentage) in games started by Varitek in 2008, and 22-20 (.524) when Kevin Cash was behind the dish (mostly while paired with Tim Wakefield). Since Varitek broke into the majors, the Sox have a 707-468 record (.602) in games that he has started.
It is certainly unfair to compare directly the team record with Varitek and Cash (who serves as the personal valet of a knuckleballer) behind the plate. Even so, nine of the 12 pitchers who threw extensively to both catchers held batters to a lower OPS with Varitek behind the plate. (See chart.)
All the same, it remains to be seen whether any team will concur with Boras' valuation of his client. Indications at the G.M. meetings were that the Sox reluctant to exceed a two-year offer to their catcher, even if it meant losing him.
At the same time, few other clubs seemed inclined to step forward to compete with even that sort of short-term contract. One official saw the Tigers and Dodgers (presuming that they have Russell Martin increase his playing time at third base—rumors of Martin's availability as a trade chip were greeted with skepticism) as the most likely competitors for Varitek's services.
With such a limited market, it would be understandable for Boston to stand firm on any offer they make to their catcher. Still, players and team officials have spent years celebrating the impact of Varitek's intangibles on the Sox, creating a sense that it would be difficult for Boston to let the catcher leave.
"It will be interesting to see," said one American League executive, "whether (the Sox) have the guts to walk away from him."
Will it come to that? The coming months will provide an answer. But this much is already clear: Boras—who compared his client to Bob Boone and Carlton Fisk, players who caught at a high level into their 40s—is prepared to shoot for the stars in order to settle for no less than the moon.
"In many ways, his marketplace is unto himself because of the role that he provides," said Boras. "You're not going to have many catchers that have the performance levels and a 60 percent winning percentage on the franchise, have two world championships, have caught four no-hitters, I can go on and on. The idea is there just aren't many players on the marketplace who are going to lead a club like Jason Varitek…
"(Red Sox owner) John Henry said it best," Boras continued. "He said, 'Whatever has been said about Jason Varitek, not enough can be said."

How can teams acquire players who are entering their primes without having to live through the potentially massive transition of prospects coming from the minors to the big leagues? The Red Sox have two such case studies. The signing of Cuban outfielder Rusney Castillo represents one effort to acquire a player for his prime years for whom the transition to big league-caliber competition might not be turbulent. Red Sox assistant director of player personnel discusses the scouting process involved with landing Castillo. The episode also features Brock Holt, the one rookie who played at a consistently high level for the Red Sox this year. Holt explores some of the distinctions that might help to explain why he did not experience some of the struggles that characterized the seasons of Xander Bogaerts and Jackie Bradley Jr.

Charlotte City Council Member Warren Cooksey announced Monday morning that he will not seek a fourth term.
Cooksey has represented District 7, which is deep south Charlotte including Ballantyne, since 2007.
"It has been a privilege to serve the City of Charlotte as the Council Member for District 7 for three terms," said Cooksey in a statement. "However, it's time to let the voters choose someone else to have that opportunity. It's good to have a sense of balance in life, and I need to focus on personal and professional goals for a while."
Cooksey has been one of two Republicans serving on city council in recent years alongside Andy Dulin. Cooksey and Dulin voted against a property tax increase in 2012 and sided with five Democrats to keep the tax rate unchanged and study the city's proposed capital plan, which was later approved.
"I have thoroughly enjoyed advocating conservative approaches to City issues," said Cooksey. "I hope the next Council Member from District 7 also seeks to work with other Council Members to do what is best for all of Charlotte."

Hilary's Scary Stalker
Hilary's Scary Stalker
Hilary Duff has filed court documents in LA claiming that she has 2 stalkers and she's fearful for her life. Hilary and her boyfriend claim one is a 19-year-old who moved to the U.S. solely to meet and get involved with Hilary. The other is his 50-year-old roommate and paparazzi. TMZ reports:
The court documents state the man, whose first name is Max, "admitted to being 'obsessed' with her, has stated his intention of 'removing' his 'enemies' (i.e., those who prevent him from being with her), has stated his intention of purchasing a weapon, and has threatened to kill himself and to engage in dramatic actions to get her attention."
According to the documents, Max "has stated his belief that Hilary is in love with him and that Joel Madden stands in their way." The documents state, "Over the past six weeks, the defendants have engaged in an accelerated effort to make contact with Hilary, including visits to her neighborhood, to her mother's home, to her boyfriend's neighborhood ... to Mr. Madden's concert venue, and direct calls to Hilary's manager."

Sometimes getting ahead feels more like a herd of turtles than a rabbit. That's especially true when it comes to credit scores. Check out this recent question that came in via Facebook and see if you can relate…
Hi! I have a question for you. I've been working on improving my credit score for about 3 years now, but I cannot seem to raise it above 640. I have a few credit cards, with decent limits, not as high as I would like and low utilization, a car loan, and nothing in collections for a few years. My credit reports say that low credit limits and time limits are hurting me, as well as the collection from a few years back (settled). What can I do?
Here's your answer, CZ!
There are all kinds of things that can impact a credit score. Here's a video I did a couple of years ago regarding hits to your credit score from certain specific issues. Check it out, then read on for more…
To recap those potential score-busters…
- 30-day late: 60-110 points
- Debt settlement: 45-125 points
- Foreclosure: 85-160 points
- Bankruptcy: 130-240 points
- Maxed-out card: 10-45 points
The higher end of the ranges above would generally apply to those with the highest scores (780-plus) and the lower end to those with lower scores (below 680). Keep in mind that a perfect score is 850, and to get the best possible deals, depending on the lender, you'll need 730-760.
What does it matter?
CZ is right to be concerned about her credit score. Bad scores mean less access to credit and higher interest rates when an application is approved. Less access to credit can lead to lost opportunity, and higher rates can cost a ton of extra money.
Consider the mother of all debt: a mortgage. Say you're borrowing $200,000 on a 30-year fixed mortgage. Show up at the lender's office with a 620-639 credit score, and at today's rates, you'll pay 4.827 percent. If you make minimum payments, your total interest bill over 30 years will be $178,935.
But if you waltz in with a 760 or higher score, you'll only pay 3.238 percent and your total interest bill declines to $112,875.
That means over the life of that loan, the lousy score will cost you $66,060 – enough to finance your own business, put a kid through college, or maybe retire a year earlier.
(By the way, the information above came from a calculator from Fair Isaac – the creator of the commonly used credit score. Check it out for yourself.)
The opportunity cost of bad credit
Another even more dramatic way of looking at the same thing is to consider opportunity cost – the term describing how money you spend today can cost you in terms of the opportunity to have more money tomorrow.
Because of the higher rate, a low score on our $200,000 loan means a monthly payment of about $1,053 a month versus about $869 a month for the higher score. So the person with the higher score has the opportunity to save about an extra $200 month. If they use that opportunity wisely and invest their $200 monthly for 30 years and earn 8 percent on it – possible in the stock market – they'll end up with an extra $298,000.
In short, bad credit is expensive. If more people realized that, maybe we'd have fewer lousy credit scores floating around out there. According to Fair Isaac's numbers, about 40 percent of Americans have a credit score below 700.
What should CZ do?
Now let's (finally) get back to CZ's question: "My credit reports say that low credit limits and time limits are hurting me, as well as the collection from a few years back (settled). What can I do?"
I doubt that low credit limits are dramatically hurting CZ. But if by "time limits" she means not enough time has gone by, I'm onboard. I suspect that this was a seriously low credit score at one point. Otherwise, three years of on-time bill payments should have lifted her score over 640 by now.
She's done what she can: gotten new credit, gotten various types of credit (revolving: credit cards, and installment: car loan) and is keeping her utilization ratio low (not using all her available credit). She's also hopefully paying her bills consistently and promptly.
What's left? Time. Like many mistakes in life, it takes days to screw up your credit and years to fix it. Also like other mistakes, however, as time marches on, they have less influence. So if CZ is telling the truth about doing everything right for three years, it shouldn't be much longer before she sees significant improvement in her score.

Happy New Year's Eve!
If you're anything like me, you spend the last few days of the year not only thinking about your goals for the next 364 days, but also about what you did or accomplished in the last 364 days.
Many years ago I would get melancholy and maybe even feel a little bit embarrassed when I thought about the year I was closing out and realized I hadn't done anything of great significance. As I've gotten older, the goals I used to have for myself Ś losing weight, traveling more, watching less television, not eating out as much Ś have become more difficult to achieve. The pounds don't come off as easily as they did 20 years ago; traveling requires a lot more planning and cash than it used to; with the advent of DVR there is always something on television I like; going through a drive-through or meeting my family after work for a hamburger or pizza is just easier than having to cook and clean up when I've worked a 13-hour day.
I decided last year that I was going to stop setting myself up for failure. I was going to remember the little things I did each year that made me Ś or someone else Ś happy.
If you're beating yourself up thinking you have absolutely nothing to show for 2013, consider these ideas:
Ģ Did you help an elderly person by holding a door or getting something off a high shelf at the grocery store for them? If you did, it likely felt like nothing to you Ś but I'd be willing to bet the person you helped was exceedingly grateful and possibly even told someone what you did for them.
Ģ Did you let your spouse or significant other take a nap on a Sunday afternoon while you tended to the children, made dinner or cleaned the house? I don't know about you, but I often find raising children and maintaining a household to be exhausting. When my husband gives me the gift of a hour or two by myself to just relax in the quiet, I am very thankful.
Ģ Did you pick up one of those pre-made flower bouquets at the grocery store and give it to someone "just because?" Women of all ages love flowers ģ especially when they get them for no particular reason. Once in a while when I'm shopping, I'll put a bouquet of sunny blooms in the cart and take them to my mother. The smile on her face is really more for me than it is for her, but she does seem to like it when I bring her flowers.
Ģ Did you volunteer as a classroom helper for a child you love? Elementary school children love to have visitors they know in their classrooms. It gives them a chance to not only show you where they go each school day, introduce you to their teachers and show you what they're learning Ś it also gives them a chance to show you off to their friends. Being loved by a child is an awesome feeling.
Page 2 of 2 - Ģ Did you post a funny e-card or meme on a friend's Facebook wall? There were some days this past year that I could have done without Ś but for some reason my best friend Emily always managed to post something hilarious to my wall that made me laugh on those days. If you shared one of these things with a friend, you very well could have been the bright spot for them in an otherwise cruddy day.
Ģ Did you compliment someone on their hairdo/sweater/smile? A well-placed kind word can make someone's day. We've all, at one time or another, been horrified by someone's new hair or horrible jacket Ś and probably didn't hesitate to make a remark about it to someone other than the person wearing them. We should be as quick with compliments as we are with criticisms.
Ģ Did you adopt a cat or dog from an animal shelter? People who do this are my heroes. I am so impressed by the Humane Society of Branch County ģ it seems like my Facebook newsfeed always contains at least one photo of a puppy or kitty going home with his or her new family. Even if you're not in a position to adopt a pet, the shelter always welcomes volunteers ģ so you can play with and love on these animals until permanent homes are found for them. If you're one of those people who took a new pet home or went out to the shelter to volunteer in 2013, give yourself a hand. You did something phenomenal.
See? Chances are you did some good every single day of 2013. Perhaps you opened a jar of pickles for someone who couldn't do it; maybe you let another car in ahead of you as you were leaving a concert or sporting event.
Whichever, look back and know that even if the last year was a succession of small good deeds rather than great big accomplishments, you probably touched the hearts of people you may not even know.
I wish you all a 2014 filled with random acts of kindness Ś done by you and for you.

text: WBLS Sports Ed WBLS Sports Editorial > Nets Win Over Rockets - Full Recap! Nets Win Over Rockets - Full Recap! Posted on 4/2/2014 12:01:00 PM by Ryan Gayle Small ball is the name of the game! Since the beginning of the year, coach Jason Kidd adjusted the style of play for the Brooklyn Nets (40-33). Instead of using a big lineup, Kidd shifted Kevin Garnett or Mason Plumlee to Center, and shifted Paul Pierce to Power Forward. The result has been a 30-12 record in 2014, and an unexpected playoff berth. Brooklyn increased their home game win streak to 14 games -- a franchise record -- with a sound 105-96 victory over the Houston Rockets. Houston, who has been playing some of their best basketball as of late, was able to keep the game close for the 1st three quarters. In the 4th, it was all Brooklyn. Joe Johnson was the star of the night, and his hot start led the Nets to a 29-24 lead after one -- Johnson scored 11 points off 5-8 shooting in the quarter. Chandler Parson's driving lay up with 8:07 to go in the 2nd, tied the game at 35, and later, Francisco Garcia made a corner 3-pointer to give the Rockets a 4-point cushion. That lead was short lived, and the Nets responded with a 11-0 run -- Deron Williams had two driving lay ups, Johnson made a pair of free throws, a floater, and provided a pass to Mason Plumlee for a dunk in transition. Jeremy Lin made a 3-pointer to cut the lead to four, and then James Harden made three free throws to bring the Rockets within one. At the half, the Rockets trailed the Nets 54-51. Brooklyn held Houston to 41% from the field, but what kept Houston in the game was 3-point shooting -- Brooklyn made 1-11, the Rockets made 7-20. Brooklyn finished the half, shooting 52% from the field. Houston cut the deficit to one three times in the 3rd quarter, but couldn't take the lead. Midway through the period, Brooklyn went on an 11-2 run to push their advantage to 11, but Houston responded with consecutive threes from Garcia and Parsons. The Rockets ended the quarter on a 12-5 run. Going into the 4th, the Nets led 83-79. In the 4th, Brooklyn began to pull away. After making a free throw, on the following possession, Andray Blatche found Mirza Teletovic open for three to give the Nets an 8-point lead. Teletovic made another 3-pointer later in the quarter to push the Nets advantage to 10, and with 1:14 remaining, he made a baseline jumper to give the Nets a 13-point lead. With this win, Brooklyn has clinched a playoff berth, and they now trail both the Chicago Bulls and the Toronto Raptors by 1.5 games for home court advantage in the first round of the playoffs. Key Stats: Joe Johnson led the Nets with 32 points. Shaun Livingston had 17 points and 6 rebounds. Deron Williams had 12 points and 6 assists. Mason Plumlee finished with 11 points and 6 rebounds. Andray Blatche scored 13 points, and Mirza Teletovic also contributed with 10 points and 7 rebounds off the bench. James Harden led the Rockets with 26 points and 7 assists. Jeremy Lin and Chandler Parsons scored 16 points each -- Parsons also grabbed 8 rebounds. Omer Asik finished with 12 points and a career-high 23 rebounds. Francisco Garcia contributed with 10 points off the bench. Key Notes: Dwight Howard didn't play due to a sprained left ankle. Patrick Beverley is out with a sprained right knee. Terrence Jones had flu-like symptoms and didn't play. Greg Smith didn't play due to a right knee injury. Andrei Kirilenko missed another game due to a sprained left ankle. Marcus Thornton didn't play due to a back injury. Kevin Garnett is still out with back spasms.

Very FAST turn around- thank you Stampin Up!
I have some awesome fall paper and stamps from the new Holiday Catalog that are calling my name, so today I am doing some organizing so when the ink pads come I can sit down and stamp! I have some ideas running around in my head! lol Let's hope I can get them on paper and have them look good! I think I need to plunge myself back into my stamping/scrapbooking and quilting and get some projects finished and more started! lol
These new In colors are TO DIE FOR! I love them, I thought by the photo above I would not be so sure, but when I have the paper in hand (and soon the ink pads lol) I am in love love love!

First, this is VERY important to read and understand. I'm doing my best to look out for all the Facebook Users who aren't as tech savvy as their kids or friends. I'm trying to help explain what's happening because if I don't…nobody else will!
If you're anything like your neighbor…you probably use Facebook on your phone WAY more than you use it on a computer. You've been sending messages from the Facebook app and it probably always asks you if you want to install the Facebook Messenger App.
It's always been OPTIONAL but coming soon to your Facebook experience….it won't be an option…it will be mandatory if you care to send messages from your phone.
No big deal one might think…but the part that the average Facebook User doesn't realize is the permissions you must give to Facebook in order to use the Facebook Messenger App. Here is a short list of the most disturbing permissions it requires and a quick explanation of what it means to you and your privacy.
Hopefully, you take this as serious as I do…after reading more about it and studying the permissions I have now deleted the app from my phone and don't intend to use it ever again. I still have my Facebook app but I just won't use the messaging feature unless I'm at a computer. Even then, I might not use messaging anymore.
With these kinds of privacy invasions I think Facebook is pushing the limits to what people will let them get away with. I remember when the Internet first began it's march toward socializing dominance when AOL would send us CD's for free trials every week. On AOL, we made screen names that somewhat hid our identities and protected us against the unseen dangers online. Now, it seems that we've forgotten about that desire to protect our identity and we just lay down and let them invade our privacy.
There may be no turning back at this point because many people won't read this or investigate the permissions of Facebook's new mandatory app but at least I can say I tried to help us put up a fight. Pass this along to your friends and at least try to let them know what they're getting into.
I personally have not accepted that app on my phone and if I am FORCED or not be able to use it- I will remove FB entirely from my phone period!
I wanted you all to know this- please share it with your family and friends. NO ONE has the right to the information on my phone especially the addresses, numbers and photos of my loved ones and friends!

josh turner, one woman man, Stampin Up holiday catalog
Stampin Up has a "catalog selector" on their demonstrator website. I have selected everyone who has purchased from me in the past to receive the new Holiday Catalog in the mail. If you have not received yours by August 25th, PLEASE let me know right away. You will be able to order from ithe Holiday Catalog soon, right now demonstrators are able to preorder our supplies from it giving us a chance to have some samples to show when the catalog goes live!
Just one of the perks I love about being a demonstrator!
PLEASE NOTE: I am no longer personally mailing catalogs becuase the post office is charging 8.00 each to mail regular catalogs and 3.00 each for the holiday ones. That is way beyond what you or I can pay! I have catalogs here at my home/studio, just stop by and pick one up for FREE but please make an appointment first.
My Best advice to obtain a new catalog is to add this number 136732 to your next online order on my website .
To see our Catalogs online click HERE
Please contact me with your questions- just click the EMAIL GWEN Icon on the left column!
Have a fabulous day!
