A Quick Look At What We Do.

1. Given the different time zones, Santa has 31 hours to deliver gifts, but his reindeer really have to fly, since that means visiting 823 homes per second.

2. Dreaming of a green Christmas? Household waste increases by 25 percent between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day. In the United States, trash from wrapping paper and shopping bags totals 4 million tons.

3. The year 2007 marks the 28th year that the National Chanukah Menorah the world's largest in Washington, D.C., will be lit in a ceremony televised internationally.

4. The U.S. Postal Service delivers 20 billion cards and packages between Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve.

5. Rudolph first alighted on the holiday scene in 1939, when in-store Santas at Montgomery Ward stores distributed 2.4 million copies of the booklet "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," written by Robert L. May, a copywriter for the company. After executives vetoed the original name, Rollo, May's young daughter suggested Rudolph.

6. The L�schner family of Neuhausen, Germany, owns the biggest nutcracker collection: 4,334. It is said that German craftsmen made the first decorative nutcrackers around 1800 as a way of mocking authority figures, leading to the phrase "a hard nut to crack."

7. Despite their bad reputation, poinsettias aren't deadly. Latex in the stems and leaves can be irritating, but not much more, to humans and animals.

8. The first candy cane dates back to 1670 in Germany. According to holiday lore, a choirmaster distributed sugar sticks bent into the shape of a shepherds' crook to quiet his young singers during Christmas services. Today more than 1.76 billion candy canes are made for the holidays, enough to stretch  to North Pole, Alaska, and back again 32 times.

9. Charles Dickens wrote "A Christmas Carol" between October and November of 1843. The story was a hit, selling 6,000 copies by Christmas Day.

10. The largest gingerbread man in the world is a dieter's nightmare, weighing in at a whopping 466 pounds, six ounces. The Gingerbread House, in Rochester, Minnesota, baked the giant cookie on February 21, 2006.

11. An average of 5,800 people end up in the ER after suffering injuries from holiday decorating.

This is the time of year most of us find ourselves very busy preparing for the holidays and that means a more than normal amount of transactions at the ATM.  It's with this thought that we decided to repost an article that first appeared in our October 2013 newsletter.  Protect yourself from credit card skimmers.

This article is not meant to be all inclusive in terms of ATM card skimming or the ways in which a thief can use the information collected from your card, but only to bring an awareness to its existence.   Check with the bank issuing your debit card for information regarding the protection of your debit card and the ways it can and cannot be used.  

ATM skimming is like identity theft for debit cards and was first seen in 1993. Over a billion dollars are stolen through ATM skimming each year.  Thieves use hidden electronics to steal personal information stored on your card and record your pin number.

Skimming takes two separate components to

work.  The skimmer that is placed over the ATM card slot and the camera, hidden on or near the ATMs  in a location where it can clearly see the numbers you're entering on the keypad. Some Skimming operations include a fake keypad in place of the camera to capture your PIN number.

Block the keypad when you enter your PIN number. This is the easiest thing you can do in the case of a camera.  Make this a habit; cover the keypad with your free hand when entering your PIN number.  This simple step will prevent the criminals from getting your PIN number if they are using a hidden camera! 

Monitor your credit report.  Sometimes criminals use the information they collected from your credit card to gather more information about you in the hopes of stealing your identity.  By monitoring your credit report you're more than likely to catch and stop this activity before it gets out of control.
