How would you like to have been one of the custom officials opening up a package that had come from Hong Kong that had been marked “personal clothing” only to find about 300 live scorpions and spiders!
The scorpions and spiders had been packed in nets, bottles and transparent plastic boxes and were concealed under clothing and newspapers within the package. Tarantulas were also included in the spider tally.
“The scorpions almost bit the examiner,” Nelson Ebio, a port collector at the Central Mail Exchange Center, told the Philippine Daily Inquirer. It was the first time the post office had encountered such poisonous mail, he said.
The package had arrived from Hong Kong on a Monday, but it wasn’t clear who had sent the package or why although it’s been speculated that the package was intended for someone who collects these types of invertebrates and insects. My guess, having been involved in reptile keeping, is more along the lines that these creatures were being smuggled into the country illegally for the pet trade.
The spiders and scorpions have been handed over to Manila parks and wildlife officials.
The spiders and scorpions were later handed over to the parks and wildlife office.
Wouldn’t it be great if there was a debt card that you could use to pay for purchases on the internet or top up with cash and use pretty much anywhere in the world?
Well, there are such debit cards. It’s called the EPAY debit card.
The EPAY Premium debit card is internationally accepted. You really don’t need any other debit cards as this card will be sufficient for all your needs. For example, you can withdraw money from over 1 million ATM machines worldwide, and it can be used for secure online money transfer.
You can use the EPAY debit card exactly like you would your favorite credit cards to make purchases, book trips or pay for service. In fact it’s accepted in all major point of sales.
My wife and I actually do quite a bit of work over the internet. Some companies pay us by check for our services, but most pay online using another popular service. We think that’s great, but we can’t use our money until we transfer it to our bank accounts. There is no debit card with that particular company for international members. I’d love it if we could be paid through EPAY as we’d be able to use the money we’ve earned right away with the EPAY debit card. I’m certain that others who get paid online would love to have access to their money right away instead of having to wait up to a week for it to transfer to their local bank.
EPAY has much more than convenient debit cards. You can visit their online site to make online money exchanges or send or receive money from any country. It’s easy too. Epay can be used via email, SMS or as I said - online.
Another great feature of EPAY is that you can send or receive money from any Country. If you need to send money to a friend, relative or pay a bill you can send money instantly. Did I mention that there are no limits? Some companies only let you send or receive a certain amount of money. That doesn’t happen with EPAY.
If you are a merchant you can use EPAY’s universal payment system in your online store to accept payments from clients. Even if your clients aren’t yet registered with EPAY they can still pay directly into your account using bank transfers, pecunix or e-gold. Payments are made using EPAY in the most popular currencies - USD and EUR.
I really do think this is a great service. I think I might create and account and give EPAY a try.
I think it’s important that everyone try to plan for their future - whether it’s making investments now so that you’ll be in a better place 10 years from now, or putting money into solid investments with the plan of having a secure retirement. I must admit that I haven’t put as much thought into investments as I should have by this stage of my life. That’s not to say that we don’t have any investments though as my wife has been pretty good about investing in our future.
One of the reasons that I’m discussing this today is because I’ve just visited Global Futures exchange. They have a wide range of products and services, one of them is their forex trading account through eGobalFX.
What I like about the Forex trading accounts is that there are no commissions and no exchange fees. They also offer flexible contract size and flexible leverage. If you have any questions about how to get started please email GlobalFutures@GlobalFutures.com and they’ll show you how to get started with as little two hundred and fifty dollars.
They offer live 24/7 customer support and have an arsenal of tools that will help make investments that will yield a postive ROI. Of course, There is risk of loss trading Futures, options and forex but with the assistance of their customer support team you can make fairly safe stock exchange investments that will increase your chances of making money rather than losing it.
I must look into this company, and making investments in the exchanges in general, as it really is time to begin investing our money and hopefully getting a good return on it. We need to plan for our retirement, the sooner we get started the better and I think getting a forex account might just help.
Aren’t you curious about my new tenant? Come on with a name like Vandelay Industries - for a bl0g? You must wonder. Go on, check out my site and then move on to my renters for a visit. 
Want more traffic for your site? Check out Bl0gMad. It’s new, and unfortunately it’s not open to the public yet so you need an invitation. If you send me an E-Mail I’ll gladly send you an invite. It’s great. For every one site you surf you get one view (your own site viewed I mean). So it’s a 1:1 ratio unlike some of the other bl0g traffic exchanges, plus it’s easy to earn credits I’ve won at least 200 free credits twice and lots of smaller bonus too. Send me an email for your invite and you can find out if you like Bl0gMad as much as I do!If you promise to visit my renter I’ll give you a laugh. Do you promise? I’ll track you down if you look at this funny and don’t go visit my renter. I will!
