They urge you to check your account or confirm your account information, playing on your fears by saying the account has has been "accessed" by someone else and will be locked if you don't take action.

Scots do not want to end the Union, merely modify it

IT'S time. Time for a change. Time to move on. This is the last column from this writer which will appear in this position in this paper. A new and extremely challenging role on the business desk awaits.Sadly, it means no time for the glorious self-indulgence of expressing a weekly opinion on the affairs of the nation.The world of politics is a continuously fascinating one. There is always something new. Political parties take power and always, in the end, lose it. Politicians' fortunes ebb and flow. Plots and conspiracies abound. Policies evolve and change.Over time, the decisions made by our elected representatives really do "make a difference", a phrase politicians use frequently, to the lives of the poor, long-suffering voters whose interests they are supposed to represent. Politics matters.And having spent many years at both Westminster and Holyrood as a reporter – and worked, albeit for only a year, on the "dark side" as a special adviser to former First Minister Henry McLeish – politics had become like a drug.

Oh so it looks like all those commercial Linux distros couldn't possibly be making and money with everyone, even their competitors copying their software for free.

Bipolar disorder shatters family, ends in death

For more than two years, his service record was clean; his superiors even wrote him several letters of commendation. Fink wanted a career in the Navy, but a conflict of highs and lows was escalating inside his head.

"Something happened to him in the Navy," Heather Gentles said. "He just was never going to be the same."

Fink's illness developed quickly and was brought on in part by stress and lack of sleep, said his psychiatrist in St. Charles, Dr. Greg Mattingly. Fink's condition emerged about the same age as most bipolar patients, Mattingly said, and was not spurred by any specific traumatic incident.

"With bipolar, you can go from pretty much normal one day, to the next day being very, very, very sick," Mattingly said.

Fink mouthed off to his commanders, stopped eating regularly and lost 20 pounds.

Market woes weigh on Hargreaves Lansdown

Hargreaves Lansdown, the stockbroker that floated last May at 160p, dropped below its launch price yesterday amid fears that it would issue a warning on growth with its first-half results due today.

Resolution was the worst blue-chip performer, down 44p at 672p, hit by worries that the 720p-a-share takeover by Hugh Osmond’s Pearl Assurance could be scuppered at the eleventh hour by the Financial Services Authority. The watchdog was unhappy with the speed at which Pearl wanted to sell capital in Resolution’s life funds to repay its creditors.
