Osama Bin Laden Executed at House on Kakul Road, Abbottābad, Pakistan.

Osama Bin Laden was killed by US special forces in a fortified mansion on Kakul Road, Abbottābad, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan.

Pakistan was not informed until after the operation because during previous operations, the targets were caught running due to warnings from somewhere high up in the Pakistan government some claim. A senior US official said that no intelligence had been shared with any country, including Pakistan, ahead of the raid. “Only a very small group of people inside our own government knew of this operation in advance,” the official said.

General Barry McCafferty just said he was astonished that OBL was living in a luxurious mansion outside the capital of Pakistan rather than a hole in the mountains on the Pakistan side of the border.… Click here to continue reading this article

Test Drive Review Mazda CX-9

Test Drive Review Mazda CX-9

Really enjoyed my test drive of the Mazda CX-9.  I was really surprised how well the car handled and performed for a midsize crossover SUV.

I was comfortable in the drivers seat and there were plenty of gadgets and gizmo’s that made the driving experience more enjoyable.  The blind spot warning detector was a great example of this.  If there is a car in your blind spot and you want to change lanes, a warning light appears in your left door rear mirror alterting you to danger.… Click here to continue reading this article

Test Drive Review Infiniti FX35 AWD

WOW!  What an absolutely fun car to drive.  When sitting in the roomy drivers seat the front fender bulge gives you the impression of sitting in the cockpit of a sleek fighter jet.  The performance of the car doesn’t disappoint.  To goes like a rocket ship, corners like a race car and handles like a dream.

The coupe-like styling makes it seem like you’re not driving an crossover SUV at all.  The interior has all the high tech features you will ever need.  The XM radio intergrates with the navigation system on an huge color graphic screen. … Click here to continue reading this article

DVLA “Update Your License Details” Scam e-mail Warning

Paypal Scammer Jeff Smith jeffsmith@check-ride.com

It never ceases to amaze me when people who use Paypal think they can stiff over sellers of goods on the internet. If the seller is abroad, they think they become even more faceless and hope the seller will just roll over and accept a fraudulent chargeback.

Jeff Smith is a guy who bought a book on a particular niche in internet dating. In fact, he liked it so much he bought two. Then he got greedy and decided that having bought one, he should be able to buy one and get another free.… Click here to continue reading this article

NatWest Nigerian Scam in Russian Language

Here is a Nigerian scammer who speaks Russian who may be soon invading your email inbox. His email is accountant2009@videobank.it which suggests Italy, but his IP address is 82.128.104.217 which traces to Warri in Nigeria. Yet he gives a dodgy UK cellular based telephone number +44 70457 07946 which is nothing at all to do with Russia, Italy or Nigeria.

So here is our scamming Nigerian email in Russian:

HP Image Zone and Windows 7

If you have an HP printer and enjoy the free Image Zone software that comes with it, beware of upgrading to Windows 7.

HP Image Zone does not work on Windows 7. There is no fix, no workaround and no Windows 7 driver. HP doesn’t support the software any more, and has no intention of writing updated drivers for it. There is no later programme they offer that offers anything near the functionality.

I Googled this subject to death recently and this is the cast iron result. MS knows all about these type of issues and has something called an “XP Compatibility Pack” that is supposed to solve these problems.… Click here to continue reading this article

Landsbanki Guernsey Depositors To Get Another 17.5% Of Their Money Back

Depositors in the unsecured Guernsey-based Landsbanki Bank that went bankrupt after the corrupt Icelandic government pulled the plug on it by nationalising its parent company in 2008 are to receive another 17.5% of their money back in February 2011.

The administrators Deloitte will be writing to depositors shortly to tell them how to claim the money. Here are the details:

  • The fourth payment of 17.5p/£, which will be made “as soon as possible after 7 February 2011 and after receipt of each depositor’s account details“.  They’ll shortly be writing to depositors about the process for the payment, and including a statement of account as at 19 January 2011.

Guernsey Commissioner’s Meeting 19th Jan 2011 about failed Landsbanki Islands Icelandic Bank

The Landsbanki Depositors Action group has been doing some good work since 2008 in seeking to reunite savers with the Guernsey-based failed Landsbanki Bank (did we mention it was in the very unsafe banking “haven” of Guernsey?) with their cash. Unfortunately, they have sought to exclude some Landsbanki savers from their secret action website because some of  those who wanted to participate were denied entry because they would not disclose personal financial details to the unknown action group proprietors. It is sad that some Landsbanki Guernsey savers were excluded in this way, but thanks to connections made on other websites, with other depositors, some of them are staying in the loop.… Click here to continue reading this article

Big Changes to IMBRA and the Mail-Order Bride Industry

I have written on here recently suggesting that there are changes coming across the mail-order-bride industry. They are now on the horizon and looming rapidly into view. Some of you will have read the topic here: The Mail Order Bride Industry and IMBRA is Changing! (At least for Americans) where I discussed some of these changes in the pipeline.

In case you missed some of it, many states in the USA are going beyond the International Marriage Broker Act (IMBRA) and introducing their own state laws. We have some topics right here about individual states as an example; you can click the links below to go to the state topic:

DHL Manchester Collection Problems December

Yesterday the 6th December and today the 7th December, DHL have suspended collections from some parts of Manchester. Predictably, one of the areas affected is that covered by the notorious Ashton Service Centre.

DHL have not bothered to tell anyone about this though. Affected businesses have not been informed by DHL and are just sitting waiting for the yellow van to arrive.  It isn’t coming today! Like it didn’t come yesterday!

One of the parcel companies who resell DHL deliveries posted this today on their website:

The recent spout of bad weather and the effects of the backlog from last week continue to cause problems across the DHL Domestic network, their depots and the sorting hubs.

PostFinance in Switzerland Freeze Wikileaks Bank Account Owned by Julian Assange

PostFinance, the Swiss bank has closed the bank account of Julian Assange the Wikileaks founder.

Ukraine drops NATO bid

MOSCOW, Nov. 26 (UPI) — Ukraine has dropped its application to become a member of NATO, President Viktor Yanukovych said Friday at a news conference in Russia.

Appearing with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, Yanukovych said Ukraine has decided to remain a non-aligned country, RIA Novosti reported. Yanukovych said Ukraine hopes to remain a NATO partner while allying itself with Russia as well.

Yanukovych replaced the more Western-oriented Viktor Yushchenko in February. The country applied to join NATO under Yushchenko.

Medvedev praised Ukraine’s decision.

“In our opinion, it is a logical development of events, and we believe that it meets the interests of the existing European security system as well as Russia’s long-term development interests,” Medvedev said.… Click here to continue reading this article
