Gas Price Warning
Here's how you can protect yourself:
* Check the pump to see if the attendant is pumping your gas at the right price.
* Do the math yourself. Don't rely on the cashier.
* Get a receipt and double check to make sure it matches what you actually paid.

Advice for parents to prevent cyberbullying
* Stress to your kids not to share passwords. Many kids do share with their best friends or boyfriends/girlfriends.
* Change passwords frequently.
* Keep a current list of all your child's passwords to all devices.
* Check your kids' accounts and phones daily.
* If you find evidence of cyberbullying, make copies so you can address the issue with the bully's parents or school.

Why don't you do a storey on match.com for example. I have been on that site for three months and some of the income people want you to have is realy incredable 75.000.00 to 150.000.00. I wonder why they don't have a rich persons match.com or other sites. I've had so much in common with the woman I have searched for but then they show the income they want you to have. In this economy I am just greatful to have a roof over my head. I have emailed alot of them. I found ONE woman that did not want you to have that kind of income. Its crazy, join it for a month or three like I did and see the results. Thank You John C Dorsey. Iam from Hood River if you want anymore feed back. I did the worst mistake of all and trusted one woman aka scammer I paid for it!
I love what the problem solvers are doing to help people in the community with REAL problems. Hats off Shelly Bailey-shah and Kelli Tomlinson. I watch KATU every night! I applied to be a "lab rat" tonight. Thanks!!Â
