I am receiving bounce mail from my mailing system saying that it tried to send mail to a YAHOO mailbox for 4 hours with no result.

am nearly 18 and have been with my boyfriend for 3 months. After 2 months we had sex, and the first time the condom split. The next day I took the morning after pill and the hospital put me on the contraceptive pill, but I didn’t realize it didn’t cover you till a week of taking it. My boyfriend and I had *** 5 times without protection before the pill would actually have began to work. About a week after I went to the hospital to have my blood pressure checked, and whilst I was there, decided to request a pregnancy test which was negative. However I was told that I may not have had enough hormones in me at the time and the test could be negative. Additionally, one night I was ill and was sick, and the pill would have got out of my system and maybe jeapodised my safety/ protection.

Now, a month later, my ***** are bigger, slightly veiny, I have put on a little weight, I have a very light brown mark in my underwear every day, I feel distracted and almost tired at times and I’m ****** quite regularly… I haven’t had a period for two months, as that is how long I have been taking the pill and I didn’t have a break in between (when you are supposed to have your period), as I didn’t want to be on over the xmas holidays. I know some of these symptoms can be from taking the pill, i.e. bigger ***** and slight weight gain, but I’m told the others are prodominantly early pregnancy symptoms.

If I am pregnant, I won’t get rid of the baby, I just want some opinions on whether you think I may be pregnant so I can think things through more seriously, as I have already been to the hospital once and wouldn’t at this point like to return unless the chances I am are high.

Please help, thanks :) xxx
Earlier that day I went to the hospital I took a pregnancy test, and it was negative, so I don’t want to keep buying them if it’s unlikely I’m not cz I don’t want to keep spending money if it’s unlikely I am.. thats why I need opinions x

I work as a Marketing Executive for an in-house Sales & Marketing department. Although a small company in terms of staff, it delivers services nationally to some major clients. My role involves marketing and graphic/web design. These are my main duties:

• Management of all Marketing & PR activities
• Design of company website, marketing literature, email marketing, display advertising and any other promotional materials, including client presentations
• Lead management – involves advanced Excel functions
• Database management
• SEO/PPC
• Internal communication
• Management of business partner relationships (2 major mobile network providers)
• An element of performance management

Although I don’t hold a marketing qualification, I have now been in the job for 2 years and get positive feedback from my employer. I earn £14.5k basic + bonus. Despite promises otherwise, the bonus scheme is barely worthwhile – weighing in at £200 quarterly (before tax).

Comments appreciated!

I have a regular email address that I use everyday for regular emails from subscriptions and from casual friends. I have another that I don’t use that much and was planning on closing it. I get a lot of Nigerian 419 and lottery scam emails on a weekly basis and I report them to abuse@yahoo.com soon afterwards.

On a lark, I decided to check to see if the Yahoo accounts that the scammers were using had been shutdown, so I put all the email addresses into my other account (the one I don’t use) and sent a little note to all of the scammers who had contacted me.

To my surprise, most of the email addresses were still active, including the Yahoo accounts. I know this because the emails didn’t bounce-back to me. Yahoo seems to have the largest number of active scammer addresses and I had reported all of them. I reported them a second time and, still, most of them are still active! If Yahoo is serious about stopping scammers from using Yahoo Mail, why don’t they shut them down?
I’ve reported every single scam email sent to me. Blocking them from my Inbox doesn’t shutdown the address being used to run the scam.

I am Alltel. When it says “You may bring your number over from any other provider.” Does that mean I can SWITCH my alltel service to the sprint phone? My sister said “No, you can’t do that! They want you to become Sprint!” And I said, “No! You didn’t read it right!” And then I said “whatever” And she threw something at me.
So, may you please explain?

From the beginning his parents hated me. I was 18 and he was 20 when we first got together. We knew right then and there that we loved each other so we decided to try for a baby within a couple of months we were expecting. His parents never believed she was his child. His parents said we had to get married now which we planned to after the baby was born. I was so happy I was pregnant I told one of his dad’s workers a week after our wedding. His dad yelled at me because he didn’t want anyone to know it would be bad for business. His dad owned a trucking company at the time. The night he yelled at me I almost had to go to the hospital. I finally calmed down enough. For the first year of our marriage, we fought to stay together. His parents have tried so many times to split us up, I can’t even count how many. His never liked me because I spoke my own mind and have a tattoo. His parents always believed I forced myself on him even though I was sexual abused when I was little so I know how that feels and I would never do that to anyone. His parents never wanted anyone to know I was pregnant until after the wedding. During my pregnancy, I asked his parents numerous of times to go to the doctor’s appts but they wouldn’t. It wasn’t until I was soo sick that his mom started helping me. I had severe pre-clampisa. I had a emergency c-section at 34 weeks. His parents found out Delane is indeed his daughter, they didn’t need a dna test because she looked exactly like him and nothing like me. Since the day, she was born his family wanted us to go to all the holidays they would fight us to get to see Delane for the holidays. Like my family wasn’t important as them, but when I found out I was pregnant my family supported us and my mom went to almost all my appts. with us not like his family. We finally snapped in March of 2008, they wanted to have her for Easter and so they asked Matt on the phone. It got so bad we always were right by each other when we talked to them on the phone. So they asked if they could have Delane for Easter, Matt said maybe let me talk to Cassie about it. So at the time Matt and I worked but I had a half way early shift. I worked 9 am to 6 pm so I wanted Delane to paint Easter eggs with me so I called them and told them, I wanted her for Easter they said Matt said they can have her for Easter so I blew up and told them to never talk to us again. A week went and I was still upset, I didn’t start my period so I took a pregnancy test it came out positive a very faint positive. I was so happy until later on that day I started cramping and bleeding sure enough I had a misccarriage. I went to the doctors 2 days later and he confirmed it and he said I miscarried because of stress. My doctor knew everything that was going on with his parents. I had to be put on anexity and depression medicine. The anexity was beacuse I would have attacks when I talked about them or with them. His parents stayed out of our lives for a year until we got a letter from their attorney about taking us to court if they don’t get to see her so we let them for awhile but then it got messed up again this time I told them to take us to court. Matt and I were even talking about divorce because of them. We talked about it and decided to stay together but we just felt like it wasn’t worth it anymore with all the fighting we were doing with his family but we love each other alot. His mom was dignosed with diabetes in 2007 but nobody changed their diet for her and she didn’t either. She has gone to the hospital alot all because of her not taking care of herself. She went to the hospital last Saturday and her husband told me it was all my fault but he wouldn’t tell me why she was sick so it doesn’t sound like I did it. I sent her a sonogram picture to prove I am pregnant and that’s why they can’t see Delane because they stress me out too much but that was in September and now it’s October and we only live 30 mins from them so I know she got it already. His dad said they never wanted to see Delane again so I should be happy but I’m not I feel terrible and I didn’t do anything. Should I feel this way? I really need some advice on this. Thanks for reading something this long

Majic Jack Dangerous Puts Spyware On Computer – The Hidden Truth Behind Majic JackPosted problems with magic jack …. is majic jack hiding something?

read the tos (“terms of service) for magic jack very closely. you might be surprised at what you see there. or not see there. i’ve pointed out issues with magic jack in earler articles on broadband nation (see archives). but this revelation should make you very concerned.

in short … to quote a favorite cartoon character …. “be afwaid, very afwaid”.

this is just pointing out the not-so-obvious that is hidden deep within the tos, and other ‘gotcha’s’ that you won’t realize until after you give up your $ and privacy!

first:

here is the contact info for magicjack:

po box 6785
west palm beach, fl 33405

magic jack phone number: 281-404-1551
billing magicjack number: 561-594-2140

caution: it looks like they track the number that calls and places you into a repeating loop if you call back a second time. so if you need to call a second time make sure its from a different number.

second:

in the tos you agree that everything in your computer is fair game for them to know about, all web sites, email, and numbers called are there info.

you agree to have all of your information resold to third parties.

there is no un install for this program. even if you stop using it, it gathers your information.

you are put under high pressure to sign up and pay for 5 years.

there is no published phone number, email address, or mailing address.

all customer support is done via type in the box chat.

there is no written warranty on the box. it breaks, you buy another to maintain your service.

computer must be left on to make or receive calls.

pop up window comes to front of screen anytime there is a call in or out call.

majicjack spyware slows down your computer even when you are not using magicjack

advertising is in the pop up box.

and yes, you do save around $150 a year not using a real voip company.

at what little price people put on the information and security.

so ask yourself, is it really worth it?

wait …. there’s more.

majic jack is owned and run by ymax. they are not a stand alone voip provider.

also …..

“the software for the magicjack does not run directly from the device. it fully installs on the windows system, which also makes the magicjack less attractive for situations where one might want to use it on someone else’s computer (say when visiting family). making this even worse, there was no easy way to uninstall the software from the system, with the program not even showing up in the windows remove program window. update: magicjack confirmed that there is currently no easy way to uninstall the software. the process required to uninstall the software requires multiple windows registry edits and the removal of several folders on the windows system. based on this, i wouldn’t recommend using the magicjack on the systems of friends, family or business associates.” — (see magicjack fails to cast a voip spell)

nobody should accept having to leave unwanted software on a personal computer, or any tell-tale trace of the mj program on a public computer, a business workstation, or a borrowed device.

the key concepts here are action and intent. if mj is not actively monitoring computer activity and collecting data about its customers, that’s great. they would be taking no action that anyone could be concerned about.

but consider their intent. their tos spell out their intent — the intent to feed context sensitive advertising, which requires manipulation of information from your brain through their software into their processors. there seems to be little restriction of what info their software can see. (kind of like your home builder installing bugging devices and cameras into your bedroom, just not yet watching the feed.) then there is the ability of mj to modify their software (upgrape, anyone?) at any time, without the common user’s ability to stop it, and that revision could include the spyware coding. while you, the uncommon user, have the ability to see what they are doing, the common user has no idea when the change is made. now let’s consider mj’s intent of not building in an uninstall capability. i am suggesting that this exposes mj’s intent to have their software on your pc whether you’re an active phone customer or not. what would be the intent of having that software on the pc of a former customer? (consider, also, their “convenience” feature of taking the device with you so you can use it on a friend’s pc — thus installing the software on that machine, too!) what information could that software obtain that would be of value to mj? and what could the common user do to stop it?

mj could shut down their phone service tomorrow, and they have a window into 1 million pcs — to feed advertising, log key strokes, and obtain surfing patterns.

by laughing at the tos provisio
