Haiti in need

As you probably heard, in the 12th of January, Haiti was hit by a catastrophic earthquake, followed by at least 52 aftershocks. As of Feb. 12, an estimated three million people were affected by the quake; the Haitian Government reports that between 217,000 and 230,000 people had been identified as dead, an estimated 300,000 injured, and an estimated 1,000,000 homeless. The death toll is expected to rise.They also estimated that 250,000 residences and 30,000 commercial buildings had collapsed or were severely damaged.
The earthquake caused major damage to Port-au-Prince, Jacmel and other settlements in the region. Many notable landmark buildings were significantly damaged or destroyed, including the Presidential Palace, the National Assembly building, the Port-au-Prince Cathedral, and the main jail. Among those killed were Archbishop of Port-au-Prince Joseph Serge Miot, and opposition leader Micha Gaillard. The headquarters of the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH), located in the capital, collapsed, killing many, including the Mission’s Chief, Hédi Annabi. (more…)

7 teste.com – Abuz sau nu?

De astazi publicitatea Google de pe site-ul meu a disparut. Pentru ca ei n-au cum sa controleze fiecare anunt care-l livreaza in parte. Si pentru ca mi-am luat o teapa draguta. Dau click pe un anunt Google si ajung pe 7teste.com care imi ofera un test pentru fumatori. Il completez si ca sa primesc rezultatul imi apare pe site sa trimit un sms care costa 10 centi. Il trimit la un numar din lista si constat ca am fost taxat cu 1.5EUR. Soc! Intru la termenii si conditiile de pe site-ul lor si tarifele pentru numerele de sms din Romania pornesc de la 70 eurocenti pana la 3 EUR. Nicaieri 10 centi. Drept pentru care am trimis un mesaj la Orange Romania si astept raspunsul lor; intre timp mi-am scos toate reclamele AdSense de pe site.

Preturile sunt afisate in ordinea asta:

Update: Acum am sesizat alt aspect in urmatoarea formulare:
“Atentie: in caz ca nu se trimite, folositi unul din urmatoarele numere [...]”

In traducere libera:
Draga client prepay, daca nu ai credit sa trimiti la primul numar, trimite la urmatoarele pana merge, unul din ele te va taxa pe masura creditului tau!
