Cyberbullying:What every parent and child should know

What Every Parent Should Know:-
Cyberbullying is different to the normal school playground bullying, in that it happens in the privacy of the Childs home. I say ‘the privacy of home’ for the simple reason that a lot of parents still believe a child or young person is safe from bullying in their home.
Direct Gov on the Young People page describe Cyberbullying is when one person or a group of people try to threaten, tease or embarrass someone else by using a mobile phone or the internet. Cyberbullying is just as harmful as bullying in the real world. If you see it happening, report it. Don't ignore it.
The most common occurrences of bullying take place in the form of telephone calls or texts messages to your child’s mobile, through social sites, instant messaging, such as MSN, Video hosting sites such as Utube, web cams and gaming sites. This type of bullying is often compounded by other people deliberately, or unintentionally, resending emails, or commenting on videos.
Unfortunately this is not the only way your child could be under attack, or even you. Read the full article and make sure you email this article to a friend, and let them protect their children.

The Demise of Readers Digest UK

Readers Digest announced that they had gone into administration yesterday. This move has been expected after rumours that Readers Digest had a shortfall in its UK Pension Fund of £125million. The American owners of Readers Digest, the Readers Digest Association agreed to pay a small percentage of the deficit, but was over-ruled by the regulator.
The administrator went on television, confirming that Readers Digest would carry on as usual until a buyer was found. It is understood that Readers Digest [UK] is a profitable company, with a strong brand and should have no difficulties attracting bids. The American readers digest was formed in 1922 and the UK version in 1938, and now has a circulation of over half a million. The 1000th edition was published in 2005.
B.T. announced on the 11th February that they would pay off its £9 billion pension deficit. Previously BT had agreed to pay an extra £525m into the scheme in 2009, 2010 and 2011. Now it has agreed to continue the process for a further 14 years, starting with £583m in 2012 and rising by 3% a year thereafter.

Google’s New Universal Search

Google announce the first steps toward a universal search model, offering users a more integrated and comprehensive way to search online.


Google's vision for universal search is to ultimately search across all its content sources, compare and rank all the information in real time.

UK Scam list

According to the Office Of Fair Trading [OFT] 10% of Britons have fallen for scams, either email scams, telephone scams using high pressure sales techniques, selling non existent products, and postal scams. Email scams are the biggest culprit, with 73% of adults receiving one last year, with 2 million people losing more than £50 to scammers. The scammers circulate lists, between each other, of the names of people who have fallen for these scams.


The latest scam is an email supposedly from the Inland Revenue, claiming you are due a tax rebate, and asking you to supply your bank details. Most of these scams originate from abroad. Be vigilant, if it sounds too good to be true, then it probably isn’t.
