<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Normally most of the website likes to have contact form on it. So that the visitor can send emails to page admin using that form. But some time, they receive lost of spam mail though the contact form. So, to detect this  spam and filer bad words, there is a very simple solution.</p>
<p> First, we will create a very simple form.  Save the form as contact-form.html. In this form we have 3 fields.  First two fields are normal text fields for name and email. The 3rd one is for message. We will filer and check for this filed only. Now add an action to this form, so that when the user will press submit button it will submit the form to contact-form.php file.</p>
<pre class="brush: xml;">
  &#60;form action=&#34;contact_form.php&#34; method=&#34;post&#34; name=&#34;fomrq&#34;&#62;
&#60;input name=&#34;firstname&#34; type=&#34;text&#34;  id=&#34;firstname&#34; size=&#34;40&#34; /&#62;
&#60;input name=&#34;email&#34; type=&#34;text&#34;  id=&#34;email&#34; size=&#34;40&#34;/&#62;
&#60;textarea name=&#34;message&#34; cols=&#34;89&#34; rows=&#34;5&#34; id=&#34;message&#34;&#62;textarea&#62;
  &#60;input name=&#34;button&#34; type=&#34;reset&#34; id=&#34;button&#34; value=&#34;Clear&#34; /&#62;
 &#60;input name=&#34;submit&#34; type=&#34;submit&#34;  id=&#34;submit&#34; value=&#34;Submit&#34; /&#62;
</pre>
<p>Now, in contact-form.php, file, we will receive all 3 variables as POST variable. Then we will call BadWords function. This BadWord function will read the csv file, and read all the listed bad words. Then It will compare it with all words of our message one by one.</p>
<pre class="brush: php;">
&#60;?php

	function BadWords($str)
 	{
	$str=strtolower($str);
	$cleanstr = $str;
	$charlist = array(&#34;&#124;3&#34;=&#62;&#34;b&#34;,&#34;13&#34;=&#62;&#34;b&#34;,&#34;l3&#34;=&#62;&#34;b&#34;,&#34;&#124;)&#34;=&#62;&#34;d&#34;,&#34;1)&#34;=&#62;&#34;d&#34;,&#34;[)&#34;=&#62;&#34;d&#34;,&#34;&#124;(&#34;=&#62;&#34;k&#34;,&#34;1(&#34;=&#62;&#34;k&#34;,&#34;$&#34;=&#62;&#34;s&#34;,&#34;(&#34;=&#62;&#34;c&#34;,&#34;1&#34;=&#62;&#34;i&#34;,&#34;+&#34;=&#62;&#34;t&#34;,&#34;&#124;&#34;=&#62;&#34;i&#34;,&#34;!&#34;=&#62;&#34;i&#34;,&#34;#&#34;=&#62;&#34;h&#34;,&#34;&#60;&#34;=&#62;&#34;c&#34;,&#34;@&#34;=&#62;&#34;a&#34;,&#34;0&#34;=&#62;&#34;o&#34;,&#34;{&#34;=&#62;&#34;c&#34;,&#34;[&#34;=&#62;&#34;c&#34;);

	foreach($charlist as $char=&#62;$value)
	{
		$cleanstr = strtolower(str_replace ($char, $value, $cleanstr));
	}

	$file = fopen('demo.csv', 'r');

	while (($line = fgetcsv($file)) !== FALSE)
	 {

	  list($id[], $word[]) = $line;
	}
	fclose($file);

	$badarray = $word;

	foreach ($badarray as $naughty)
	{
 		if (preg_match(&#34;/$naughty/&#34;, $str) or preg_match(&#34;/$naughty/&#34;, $cleanstr))
		{
           return true;
       	}
 	}
 	return false;
} // end of bad word
if (isset($_POST['submit']))
	{
		$firstname = $_POST['firstname'];
		$useremail = $_POST['email'];
		$message = $_POST['message'];

if($message &#60;&#62; &#34;&#34;)
		{
			if (BadWords($message))
			{
				require_once(&#34;class.phpmailer.php&#34;);
				$body = “Name: =$firstname &#60;br&#62; Email:= $useremail &#60;br&#62; $message”;
				$mail = new PHPMailer();
				$mail-&#62;From = &#34;enquiry @Your Domain.com&#34;;
				$mail-&#62;FromName = &#34; Your Domain Enquiry&#34;;
				$mail-&#62;AddAddress(&#34;spam@ Your Domain.com&#34;);
				$mail-&#62;Subject = &#34;{S P A M} Message” ;
				$mail-&#62;IsHTML(false);
				$mail-&#62;MsgHTML($body);
				$mail-&#62;Send();
				header('Location: contact_msg.html');
}
else
{
require_once(&#34;class.phpmailer.php&#34;);
				$body = “Name: =$firstname &#60;br&#62; Email:= $useremail &#60;br&#62; $message”;
				$mail = new PHPMailer();
				$mail-&#62;From = &#34;enquiry @Your Domain.com&#34;;
				$mail-&#62;FromName = &#34; Your Domain Enquiry&#34;;
				$mail-&#62;AddAddress(&#34;info@ Your Domain.com&#34;);
				$mail-&#62;Subject = &#34; New Message” ;
				$mail-&#62;IsHTML(false);
				$mail-&#62;MsgHTML($body);
				$mail-&#62;Send();
				header('Location: contact_msg.html');

}
}
?&#62;
</pre>
<p>Here, you can see, we are reading bad words from the demo.csv file and checking it with every word from your message. If the message contains any bad word it will go to spam@YourDomain.com or else it will go to info@YourDomain.com.<br />
Now, an example of our csv file, in this file we will list all the bad words. </p>
<pre class="brush: xml;">
1	shit
2	fuck
3	bitch
4	blowjob
5	clit	
</pre>
<p>For this Email form, we need PHP 5.0 and above, and also need to download  class.phpmailer.php file. We can download this file from http://phpmailer.sourceforge.net  .  Quit easy, right ? </p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><span style="color:#800000;">This is a follow-up for the one I previously posted.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#800000;">After a careful thinking it over I finally summed up my feelings as like these :</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#800000;"> </span><span style="color:#800000;">Should I respond to this email? No</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#800000;">There are two good reasons for not responding at all. Deleting the mail is the best thing to do with it.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#800000;">1.If I do answer, I am telling the scammer that the email address( mine) is active. That isn&#8217;t something I want to do because&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#800000;">2.If I answer, I am asking to be put on the scammer&#8217;s mailing lists. Scammers sell or trade lists of email addressess with each other, as soon as I reply, I am going to get more scam mails. I won&#8217;t get off their list very easily. Even if the scammer doesn&#8217;t give or sell my email address to other scammers, the scammer probably has other &#8220;modalities, or characters, who will start emailing me with a variety of other email scams.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#800000;">In short, I delete it. I don&#8217;t ever bother telling them that I know they are a scammer. I resist the temptation.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#800000;">Once in a while I get spam mail. No one seems to be able to avoid it. Getting an email from someone I don&#8217;t know isn&#8217;t that unusual. If I try to delete every such mail, I am I guess not going to have to worry about a scam.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#800000;">One thing that made me more suspicious is the free email servers used to send me the email.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#800000;">A legitimate business company, a bank, or a government agency will never use free email servers, no matter what. That is because a legitimate company has a registered &#8220;domain&#8221;, and  usually you will see if it is an organization it uses &#8220;org&#8221; &#8211; a government agency will often have something like &#8220;gov&#8221; followed by the 2 letter national code such as  .&#8221;us&#8221; or .&#8221;uk&#8221; etc.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#800000;">If it looks like business and it has a free email server, it&#8217;s a scam. My best bet. Delete it.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#800000;"> </span></p>

<description><![CDATA[Susetyo Dwi Prihadi &#8211; Okezone JAKARTA - Hari buruh yang jatuh pada 7 September 2009 dan promos]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><h5>Susetyo Dwi Prihadi &#8211; Okezone</h5>
<h5><strong><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-181" title="spam mail" src="http://newscafein.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/spam-mail.jpg" alt="spam mail" width="250" height="250" />JAKARTA </strong>- Hari buruh yang jatuh pada 7 September 2009 dan promosi libur Halloween dan Natal menjadi perhatian spammers untuk menjebak korbannya.</p>
<p>Menurut hasil survei yang dilakukan perusahaan antivirus Symantec ada beberapa teknik yang akan marak digunakan spammers pada September mendatang. Berikut adalah beberapa teknik yang digunakan, yang <strong>okezone</strong> kutip melalui keterangan resminya, Kamis (17/9/2009).</p>
<p><strong>Plesetan Seputar URL</strong><br />
Untuk menghindari filter antispam, spammer seringkali menggunakan teknik pengacauan, dengan menyalahgunakan merk dan taktik-taktik lain untuk mencoba dan mempersulit penyaringan konten untuk identifikasi pesan spam. Akhir-akhir ini Symantec telah mengamati sebuah serangan spam yang memelesetkan kesamaan kata (homograph spoofing).</p>
<p>Homograf spoofing adalah pemlesetan karakter dengan memanfaatkan fakta bahwa dalam sistem komputer multibahasa, banyak karakter berbeda mungkin memiliki bentuk yang hampir (atau seluruhnya) tidak bisa dibedakan. Sehingga sebuah nama domain yang diplesetkan hampir atau sangat menyerupai nama domain merek yang sangat terkenal.</p>
<p>Misalnya, domain ?xample.com (Rusia) sangat menyerupai domain example.com (Latin)</p>
<p><strong>Spam Gambar Semakin Berat</strong><br />
Spam gambar (image spam) tidak pernah benar-benar menghilang dan persentasinya rata-rata 4 persen dari semua spam pada bulan Agustus 2009. Pembuat spam gambar terus menggunakan berbagai teknik untuk mencoba dan menghindari filter antispam. Pada bulan Agustus 2009, Symantec mengamati peningkatan ukuran rata-rata pesan-pesan ini.</p>
<p>Setelah memantau pesan-pesan selama bulan Agustus diambil kesimpulan, kalau 9,3 spam gambar memiliki ukuran pesan lebih besar dari 100Kb. Sementara itu, 14,43 persen spam gambar memiliki ukuran rata-rata antara 10kb-50 KB.<br />
Dalam beberapa minggu terakhir, berbagai pendekatan gambar spam juga telah diamati. Spammer lagi-lagi memasukkan teks Shakespeare dalam pesan mereka. Dalam 2-3 bulan terakhir, Symantec mengamati pesan-pesan serupa dengan lampiran yang serupa pulla.</p>
<p>Meskipun demikian, pesan yang dimuat hanya berisi satu baris atau tidak ada pesan sama sekali dalam pesan. Grafik di bawah ini menggambarkan pengamatan kita. Grafik tersebut menampilkan data spam gambar yang dikumpulkan dalam 3 bulan terakhir.</p>
<p>Lebih lanjut, dalam laporan Agustus 2009, terungkap baris subyek teratas yang digunakan oleh spammer. Spammer kerap menggunakan subyek email biasa dan santai, seperti hey atau hi, sebagai usaha untuk mengecoh filter antispam, dan mencoba memikat pengguna untuk membuka pesan spam mereka.</p>
<p>Dalam laporan bulan ini, subyek teratas didominasi oleh subyek-subyek seperti: Delivery Status Notification (Failure), Return Mail dan Undelivered Returned to Sender.</p>
<p>Dominasi subyek-subyek tersebut pada bulan Agustus ini selaras dengan peningkatan pada spam NDR bounce yang naik hingga 10 persen dari semua spam pada beberapa titik, tetapi rata-rata 5,7 persen pada Agustus 2009. Symantec mendefinisikan pesan NDR bounce yang berisi pesan spam penuh atau parsial selama laporan bounce sebagai spam.<br />

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>We all get sick and tired of it: spam, cluttering out mailboxes with  useless and more than once even dangerous emails. Worldwide,  legislative initiatives are being taken to combat this abuse of  internet facilities, which includes fines or even jail terms. </p>
<p>  ANP newsservice in the Netherlands reported that a man had been fined  EURO 250,000 for by telecom watchdog OPTA upon finding out his firm had  been sending out at least 21 million spam messages which resulted in  almost 400 complaints via the Dutch spam complaint site Spamklacht (<a href="http://www.spamklacht.nl/" target="_blank">http://www.spamklacht.nl</a>). </p>
<p>  The man who has not been named by OPTA, had received a previous warning  4 years ago and now faces an additional EURO 5,000 fine for every day  that his company sends out spam. From other news sources it transpired  that the owner of Serinco Benelux (<a href="http://www.serincobenelux.nl/" target="_blank">http://www.serincobenelux.nl</a>)  an Alphen aan de Rijn based software and &#34;internet promo&#34; company, been  first warned in 2004 about violating the anti-spamlaws.  In 2007 the  Dutch regulator had confiscated evidence during a raid on the man&#39;s  house and is understood to have received more information about  spamming activities more recently. </p>
<p>  In an interview with the German Press Agency dpa, the man, understood to be Reinier Schenkhuizen, denied that his company had sent 21 million spam emails and would appeal the decision. Allegedly the OPTA has not understood that emails sent by his clients automatically contained some information about his company because it is integrated in the software.</p>
<p>It is great seeing that a tough stace is being takem against spam. According to some statistics spam is making up around 80% of all the worlds email traffic and wasting about 33 billion kwh of energy a year, enough to power 2.1 million US homes. Other reports claim a well over $800 loss per employee per year as a result of spam. Time to get really tough I would imagine. </p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img src="http://bilisimteknoloji.wordpress.com/files/2009/07/spam.jpg?w=300" alt="spam" title="spam" width="300" height="200" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-171" /></p>
<p>ABD’li Sophos kuruluşunca gerçekleştirilen araştırmaya göre, dünyanın en çok “spam” (istenmeyen) mesajlarını üreten 12 ülke arasında yüzde 15.6’lık bir payı ile ABD birinci oldu. </p>
<p>“Kirli Düzine” olarak adlandırılan söz konusu 12 ülke listesinde Türkiye yüzde 5.2 payı ile üçüncü sırada bulunuyor.  2009 yılının Nisan-Haziran döneminde dünyada oluşturulan “spam” e-posta mesajlarının yüzde 15.6’sı, ABD’den kaynaklanıyor. ABD’yi yüzde 11.1’lik payı ile Brezilya ve yüzde 5.2’lik payı ile Türkiye izliyor.</p>
<p>“Kirli Düzine” listesinde yer alan diğer ülkeler ve payları söyle: “Hindistan (yüzde 5), Güney Kore (yüzde 4.7), Polonya (yüzde 4.2), Çin (yüzde 4.1), İspanya (yüzde 3.4), Rusya (yüzde 3.2), İtalya (yüzde 2.8), Arjantin (yüzde 2.5) ve Vietnam (yüzde 2.3).<br />
Diğer ülkelerin ise, Nisan-Haziran dönemindeki toplam “spam” mesajlarının ancak yüzde 35.9’undan sorumlu olduğu bildirildi.</p>
<p><strong>RUSYA, &#8220;SPAM SÜPER GÜCÜ&#8221; OLMAKTAN ÇIKTI<br />
</strong>Bu arada, Sophos, dünyadaki her altı “spam”ından birinin ABD’den kaynaklandığına dikkat çekerken, Rusya’nın bu konudaki çabalarını da övdü.</p>
<p>Eskiden “spam süper gücü” olan Rusya’nın ise, listenin 9. sırasına inmesini olumlu karşılayan Sophos, buna karşın Polonya’nın dört basamak birden çıkarak 10. olduğuna işaret etti.</p>
<p>Sophos, söz konusu dönemde Kolombiya’nın “Kirli Düzine” listesinden çıkarken bunun yerine Vietnam’ın girdiğini de bildirdi.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Die E-Mail-Überflutung droht nach Ansicht von Matthias Spaetgens, Kreativ-Geschäftsführer bei Scholz]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Die E-Mail-Überflutung droht nach Ansicht von <a href="http://www.s-f.com/">Matthias Spaetgens, Kreativ-Geschäftsführer bei Scholz &#38; Friends</a>, zur  Arterienverkalkung moderner Organisationen zu werden: „Wir leben von den Ideen unserer Leute. Doch die Mailflut unterbricht permanent kreative Prozesse und zerstört die Kommunikationskultur“, beklagt sich der Werbefachmann nach einem Bericht der Welt am Sonntag (WamS). Ein breiter und schnell fließender Strom schwappe über Berufstätige, die ihre Arbeit an einem internetfähigen Computer versehen. „Ein Teil kommt von außen &#8211; es sind digitale Wurfsendungen, in denen für Potenzmittel, Reisen oder Glücksspiele geworben wird. Selbst wenn nur ein Prozent der Botschaften solche ‚Spammails’ sind, will der Softwarehersteller McAfee errechnet haben, entstehen einem Unternehmen mit 1000 Mitarbeitern dadurch jährlich rund 40.000 Euro Kosten“, so die WamS. </p>
<p>Dazu komme der tägliche kommunikative Overkill, für den es noch keine Filter gibt. Eilige Terminsachen, Sitzungsprotokolle, Rückfragen, zotige Powerpointwitze. „Der Strom versiegt nie und fordert ständige Aufmerksamkeit. Wer ihn staut, steht nach dem Urlaub vor einem ganzen See, und es fließt ständig nach“, schreibt der WamS-Redakteur Steffen Fründt. Mailserver würden auch keine Vorzimmer mehr kennen. „Früher wurde die Post von den Sekretariaten für Führungskräfte vorsortiert und nur das Wichtigste kam in die Tagesmappe. Heute beschäftigen sich die meisten Chefs höchst persönlich mit ihrem elektronischen Posteingang“, sagte Lars Thomsen vom Münchner Trendbüro „Future Matters“ <a href="https://mwl.telekom.de/mehrwertforum/">beim Mehrwertforum der Deutschen Telekom in Berlin</a>.  </p>
<p><a href="http://www.ityx-solutions.de/de/solutions/email-response-management"><img src="http://gunnarsohn.wordpress.com/files/2009/05/ityx_top_solutions_erms_einb_d.png?w=300" alt="Informationsflut bewältigen mit Künstlicher Intelligenz" title="Informationsflut bewältigen mit Künstlicher Intelligenz" width="300" height="68" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1330" /></a>Die permanente Informationsüberflutung führe zu Gefühlen von Überlastung und Fremdbestimmung. In immer mehr Jobs liege die zentrale Kompetenz in einem professionellen Medienmanagement. S<a href="http://www.ityx-solutions.de">o wendet die Firma ItyX, Systemintegrator und Spezialist für Kundeninteraktionen,</a> Methoden der Künstlichen Intelligenz an für die automatisierte E-Mail-Verarbeitung. Das Spezialgebiet von ItyX-Vorstand Andreas Klug ist die Computerlinguistische Forschung zur Optimierung von digitalen Geschäftsvorfällen. </p>
<p>„Unser System ‚Mediatrix’ kann beispielsweise im Kundenservice eingehende E-Mails analysieren  und intelligent an  verfügbare Servicemitarbeiter verteilen. Es senkt die Bearbeitungszeiten um 25 bis 55 Prozent“, sagte Klug bei seinem Mehrwertforum-Vortrag „Digitale Innovation trifft Künstliche Intelligenz. Es handele sich um ein lernfähiges System auf Basis dynamischer Lernmengen. „Durch den Einsatz von Mediatrix steuert das <a href="http://www.de.boschcommunicationcenter.com">Bosch Communications Center (BCC)</a> mandantenspezifische E-Mail-Prozesse und baut gleichzeitig essentielles Wissen auf“, ergänzte BCC-Manager Gerd Hauer, verantwortlich für den Standort Berlin. Die E-Mail-Anfragen werden automatisch kategorisiert und Expertenteams zugeordnet. Die Mitarbeiter erhalten Antwortvorschläge. Es gibt Übersichten der Kundenhistorie, Nachverfolgungs- und Eskalationsfunktionen sowie eine integrierte Wissensdatenbank. </p>
<p>Auf dem Mehrwertforum wurde zudem ein System vorgestellt, um die Ressourcenauslastung im Kundenservice und die Qualität der Servicebearbeitung zu verbessern. Um für die automatische Anrufverteilung ein flexibles Echtzeit-Monitoring zu realisieren, hat das <a href="http://www.voicint.com">Dortmunder Softwareunternehmen VoicInt Telecommunications</a> sein „Web Enterprise Monitoring“ an die Call- Center-Plattform der Deutschen Telekom angebunden. „So stehen Kunden umfassende Informationen, Statistiken und Kennzahlen parallel zu den laufenden Prozessen bereit. Über einen beliebigen Webbrowser und sogar über Mobilfunkgeräte wie das iPhone können die Verantwortlichen beispielsweise Informationen zur Anzahl der Anrufe und Gespräche, zur Erreichbarkeit, zu Gesprächsdauer oder Service Level abrufen“, erläuterte Peter Nowack, Geschäftsführer von VoicInt.</p>

Intelligente Systeme sollten in der Lage sein, Vorschläge zu unterbreiten, die auf dem Verständnis und Kontext der Situation beruhen. „Die Absichten, Hintergründe und der ‚Leidensdruck&#8217; des Kommunikationspartners müssen antizipiert werden&#8221;, sagt Pape. Er favorisiert den virtuellen Dialog Manager: „Er ist das Gehirn des Systems: Stratege, Controller, Informationsassistent, Vertriebsmitarbeiter: Der Dialog-Manager agiert als zentrale Stelle im System, interpretiert jede Anfrage und leitet diese zur Verarbeitung an die übrigen Module weiter. Er entscheidet, ob und wie eine Frage gestellt wird und wie eingehende Fragen beantwortet werden“, erläutert Pape die Vorzüge einer intelligenten Automatisierungsstrategie.</p>

<p style="text-align:center;">Saying this, while putting down your phone and walking off (instead of hanging-up immediately) would make each telemarketing call so much more time-consuming that boiler room sales would grind to a halt.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Then when you eventually hear the phone company&#8217;s &#8216;beep-beep-beep&#8217; tone, you know it&#8217;s time to go back and hang up your handset, which has efficiently completed its task.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">These three little words will help eliminate telephone soliciting.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">(2) Do you ever get those annoying phone calls with no one on the other end?</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">This is a telemarketing technique where a machine makes phone calls and records the time of day when a person answers the phone.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">This technique is used to determine the best time of day for a &#8216;real&#8217; sales person to call back and get someone at home.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">What you can do after answering, if you notice there is no one there, is to immediately start hitting your # button on the phone, 6 or 7 times, as quickly as possible This confuses the machine that dialed the call and it kicks your number out of their system. Gosh, what a shame not to have your name in their system any longer !!!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">(3) Junk Mail Help:<br />
When you get &#8216;ads&#8217; enclosed with your phone or utility bill, return these &#8216;ads&#8217; with your payment. Let the sending companies throw their own junk mail away.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">When you get those &#8216;pre-approved&#8217; letters in the mail for everything from credit cards to 2nd mortgages and similar type junk, do not throw away the return envelope.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Most of these come with postage-paid return envelopes, right? It costs them more than the regular 41 cents postage &#8216;IF&#8217; and when they receive them back.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">It costs them nothing if you throw them away! The postage was around 50 cents before the last increase and it is according to the weight. In that case, why not get rid of some of your other junk mail and put it in these cool little, postage-paid return envelopes.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">One of Andy Rooney&#8217;s (60 minutes) ideas.<br />
Send an ad for your local chimney cleaner to American Express. Send a pizza coupon to Citibank. If you didn&#8217;t get anything else that day, then just send them their blank application back!<br />
If you want to remain anonymous, just make sure your name isn&#8217;t on anything you send them.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">You can even send the envelope back empty if you want to just to keep them guessing! It still costs them 41 cents.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">The banks and credit card companies are currently getting a lot of their own junk back in the mail, but folks, we need to OVERWHELM them. Let&#8217;s let them know what it&#8217;s like to get lots of junk mail, and best of all they&#8217;re paying for it&#8230;Twice!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Let&#8217;s help keep our postal service busy since they are saying that e-mail is cutting into their business profits, and that&#8217;s why they need to increase postage costs again You get the idea !</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">If enough people follow these tips, it will work &#8212;- I have been doing this for years, and I get very little junk mail anymore.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Today was supposed to be serious post day&#8230; however I forgot to bring home my music player which held the text file that I&#8217;ve been typing in office so I&#8217;ll just make do with something I was thinking about but didn&#8217;t write on at work.</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px"><img title="Chicken!" src="http://www.sxc.hu/pic/m/s/st/straymuse/1171649_felt_chicken.jpg" alt="Chicken! image from sxc.hu" width="200" height="300" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Chicken! image from sxc.hu</p></div>
<p>I&#8217;m sure one or more of you have gotten chain letters especially the email type.  Well today&#8217;s email is on the chicken wings that have steroids injected in them and here&#8217;s an excerpt:</p>
<blockquote>
<h4><tt>You see, the truth is in this modern day and age, chickens are injected with steroids to accelerate their growth so that the needs of this society can be met.  This need is none other then the need for food. Chickens that are injected with steroids are usually given the shot at the neck or the wings. Therefore, it is in this places that the highest concentration of steroids exist. </tt></h4>
<h4><tt>These steroids have terrifying effects on the body as it accelerates growth. It has an even more dangerous effect in the presence of female hormones, this leads to women being more prone to the growth of a cyst in the womb. </tt></h4>
</blockquote>
<p>Now, I&#8217;ve been thinking, I ain&#8217;t a hunk.  I&#8217;m kinda lanky guy, not exactly skinny, but not muscular sort of I look OK but not buff or anything.</p>
<p>So I read this email (actually months ago) and got me thinking&#8230;hey they put steroids in chicken wings and they say don&#8217;t eat the chicken wings as you might intake some steroids from that too.  Steroids = growth, where is the steroids injected = chicken wings thus chicken wings = steroids!  So, why bother trying to find and buy steroids when all you can do is enjoy spicy chicken wings and get a pump of growth steroids in a definitely tastier manner.</p>
<p>Haha&#8230; the sad thing though, as with the boatload of chain letter spam, this happens not to be true.  Wouldn&#8217;t it be just awesome to get stronger (albeit with unknown side effects&#8230;maybe clucking) by just eating chicken wings!  Think about it. ^_^</p>
