New scam warning !

pass it on...



IMPORTANT INFO ABOUT AREA CODES:
We actually received a call last week from the 809 area code. The
woman said "Hey, this is Karen. Sorry I missed you--get back to us
quickly. I Have something important to tell you." Then she repeated a
phone number beginning with 809 "We didn't respond".

Then this week, we received the following e-mail:

Subject: DON'T EVER DIAL AREA CODE 809 , 284 AND 876

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION PROVIDED TO US BY AT&T. DON'T EVER
DIAL AREA CODE 809

This one is being distributed all over the US . This is pretty scary,
especially given the way they try to get you to call.
Be sure you read this and pass it on.
They get you to call by telling you that it is information about a
family member who has been ill or to tell you someone has-been arrested,
died, or to let you know you have won a wonderful prize, etc.
In each case, you are told to call the 809 number right away. Since
there are so many new area codes these days, people unknowingly return
these calls.

If you call from the U.S. , you will apparently be charged $2425
per-minute.

Or, you'll get a long recorded message. The point is, they will try to
keep you on the phone as long as possible to increase the charges.
Unfortunately, when you get your phone bill, you'll often be charged
more than $24,100.00.

WHY IT WORKS:

The 809 area code is located in the British Virgin Islands (The
Bahamas).
The charges afterwards can become a real nightmare. That'! s because you
did actually make the call. If you complain, both your local phone
company and your long distance carrier will not want to get involved and
will most likely tell you that they are simply providing the billing for
the foreign company. You'll end up dealing with a foreign company that
argues they have done nothing wrong.

Please forward this entire message to your friends, family and
colleagues to help them become aware of this scam

I lived close to London for 2 years, I have to say I hate it. Celebrities make London sound as though it's the best place to be but how can it be when it's a city riddled with nasty violent unnecessary crime, drugs and gangs.

The first one you remember running home to see.

I'm an old fart. It must have been Batman or The Monkees - in prime time!

I also remember The Flintstones when they were on Friday nights!

I know this is a long shot but wondered if anyone knew of any card making/paper craft suppliers or wholesalers in the UK? I was looking for personal recommendations as to service, price, delivery etc.
I understand that people are normally unwilling to disclose their source when it's found but hopefully some friendly people out there.

Many thanks
Angie

I always thought that PHP was not a stand-alone language-- you HAD to use HTML to display the results of PHP scripts. Am I correct?

I'm going through this book calle "PHP and MySQL Web Development" and it came with a CD with source code. ALL of the source code, however, is PHP, with no HTML pages to access it.

I uploaded all of the code it gave me to my school web space:

http://arapaho.nsuok.edu/~sprinkle/bookmark

Of course, it's all PHP so you can't view the code, just the code's output. Does anyone have any suggestions for how I can utilize the code? Surely I don't just have to make up my own HTML...

why would someone become so violent to join the ranks of the gihadists?
Why
Why
Why
because they are PISSED - and why might they be pissed? -

I'm sure your not them are you? To go over there and start killing people? 'hmmm maybe we in our proud American Great White Way are just as bad- or worse...could be?

has anyone stopped to think "Is the a better way to stop the cycle of violence?"

yes but the sad fact remains - other methods simply don't make amazing profits for Haliburton (and other weapons manufactureres) very well.
*sigh*

oh - the real death toll is estimated by a very survey in Iraq to be between 400,000 and 900,000

>>>The survey was done by Iraqi physicians and overseen by epidemiologists at Johns Hopkins University's Bloomberg School of Public Health. <<<
