Avoid Being Pickpocketed – 5 Tips from a Pickpocket
Saw this posted on reddit and thought this info could come in handy as a reminder to stay on point.
5 Tips from a Pickpocket
- Don’t carry extremely important things like social security cards on your person unless you need them THAT DAY for a specific reason. Seriously, I don’t do identity theft but with a soc. sec. in addition to your license and other info, it’s cake for those who do.
- Any time you’re bumped into, be suspicious. Study them as best as you can and immediately check yourself. You may look like an asshole if it’s an accident but even if they dead-sprint away, you still got a good look at them.
- Be aware. Don’t stand and gawk at anything, ever. You should know who’s around you and what’s going on because those sorts of people who stand and gawp in a mall are the easiest pickings. Check your person for your things (wallet, phone, keys, purse) regularly.
- Front pocket, not back. It’s about twice as hard to do without getting noticed, especially on tight pants, unless you’re sitting down. Also, wearing a jacket or anything else that covers the pocket makes it pretty much impossible.
- Any kind of wallet that’s not going to slide out of your pocket easily/noiselessly would be very wise. I’ve heard of some people rubber-banding their wallet, and while I never encountered that it would definitely put up resistance, and resistance is not a good thing when you’re trying to get away quiet.
6 Important Life Lessons
I found these posted online a year or so ago and had them saved in an email. A entertaining way of hopefully learning something new. Could not find original Source.
Lesson 1: Naked Wife
A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower when the doorbell rings. The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs. When she opens the door, there stands Ralph, the next door neighbor. Before she says a word, Ralph says, “I’ll give you $800 to drop that towel.†After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Ralph.
After a few seconds, Ralph hands her $800 dollars and leaves. The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs. When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks,…
“Who was that?†“It was Ralph the next door neighbor,†she replies. “Great!†the husband says, “Did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?â€
Moral of the story:
If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure.

How to Disable Native IPhone Backgrounding
This is for educational purposes only.
The reason for this is that you will notice opening up new applications begins taking longer and actions like sending texts start lagging as well. This is because all the memory in your IPhone is taken up by background processes you may not care about.
First you must have your IPhone Jailbroken, the creators.
Jailbroken IPhones have an app via Cydia called Backgrounder which allows a user to put applications into the background themselves.
Once you Jailbreak your phone here are the steps to disable the automatic IOS backgrounding.
1. SSH to the following directory “/System/Library/CoreServices/SpringBoard.appâ€
2. Search for the following file “N82AP.plistâ€
3. Open it with your favorite editor
4. Search for “multitasking†and change the <multitasking> value from <true/> to <false/>.
5. Save and Restart your Iphone. Done =)
