Strokes

If you look around the call centers and similar large companies with lots of people sitting at their desks pushing keyboards all day while answering a few phone calls you will realise a lot of them will have an unhealthy mid-life crisis to worry about. The lack of exercise of normal work today has disappeared and along with processed foods it is leading to a lot of new disease problems which these people and others don't realise is going to hit them bad. When you consider then these same younger generation then go home and play games on computers and consoles this leads to a very troubled lifestyle and it won't improve until they get out and change to an active job instead. An easy life isn't a healthy life and even if you can get wealthy it is no guarantee of a good life. I know a few people not even reached retirement that have got cancer and left their work to go home and enjoy what life they have left which isn't much then. Don't sit about as life is too short to waste it.

ASB customers are being targeted in a "smishing" scam. They've been getting text messages claiming they've been locked out of their bank accounts, but it's really a ruse to get them to hand over their banking details.

ASB is aware of a current SMS ('smishing') scam where people have been sent a text message pretending to be from the bank. The 'smishing' SMS contains a link that once clicked prompts the person to provide personal information and a wide range of details such as login details and their Netcode.

ASB wants to remind everyone that legitimate messages from any bank would never ask customers to supply personal information, login details or second-factor identification.

The ASB Contact Centre is available on 0800 803 804 if a customer is concerned about any suspicious messages they receive. Read more here

Two Issues: Weight of Kids and Garden Birds clue to Environment

Jeff from Saint Andrews

Reading the Herald yesterday two important issues were shown.

The first was on 'Weighty Issue for Our Kids' where from a previous study kids up to 14 of 2010 were compared with kids the same ages in 2017 and found the 2017 kids are 1.8kg heavier meaning lots more obesity. If you worry… View more
Reading the Herald yesterday two important issues were shown.

The first was on 'Weighty Issue for Our Kids' where from a previous study kids up to 14 of 2010 were compared with kids the same ages in 2017 and found the 2017 kids are 1.8kg heavier meaning lots more obesity. If you worry about your child and their future find this article and read it as Obesity is a modern disease going to cause massive problems of destroyed joints and bodily dis-function needing more surgery than ever before.
The second article was 'Garden Birds' Give Clues to Our Environment'. This is a survey available to take part in again where people take the time to monitor the birds they see in their own back yard. This information will show the continuing changing nature of birds in our society giving a better idea of how our environment affects them and also us. Who would think the blackbird, thrush and wax-eye would all be disappearing in our generation but this looks likely so needs our help.
