Meet Sam! Sam is an adorable, small Doberman Australian Shepherd mix with a
spunky personality and lots of energy. He is currently at the animal rescue, but is
looking for a foster home- or better yet, a forever home! Sam is still young; at about
7 months we think he will end up being a medium sized dog. He loves to play and
would love to go on hikes and jogs with his new forever parents. Sam’s adoption fee is $125,
and will cover his neuter, microchipping, vaccinations up until the day you adopt, de-
worming, heartworm testing and a full vet exam.
If you are interested in adopting or fostering Sam, you can fill out an application at
www.crossroadsanimalrescue.org.
Crossroads Animal Rescue is a nonprofit rescue located in Seneca. We also have other dogs,
including two of Sam’s brothers, kittens, puppies, and horses for adoption. All our adoptable
pets are listed on our website, www.crossroadsanimalrescue.org. Our website also details
how to adopt and how to foster, volunteer, or donate to help us save more pets.
Computing Information

Vista and Windows 7 Professional, as well as Windows 8 and
Windows 10, don't come with the Windows Solitaire/Freecell /
Minesweep / Mahjong etc. games that have become terribly
popular over the years. Fortunately, there is a free software that
installs all of these. Just do a web search for: Win7Games-
ForWin10-Setup.exe
Download and install it, and you'll soon be back in Windows
games tall cotton.

A reminder that "Ransomware" is still a terribly popular way for computer crooks to get your hard earned money.
Ransomware encrypts all your personal files - pictures documents and such. And the only way to recover them is to
pay the crooks. Often to the tune of $400 or $500 dollars. Not even the FBI can undo this scam, which has hit hospi-
tals and banks as well. Be real sure, real soon, to save copies off all files you treasure to a DVD, or external hard
drive.
A Ransomware infection can get installed on your system by you either visiting a website that has been hacked by the
crooks, or downloading and opening an attachment from a bogus email.
--------------
There is a type of infection, which I still do not know how it works, that gains access to your email Contacts list and
your email name, then starts sending spam to all your contacts. The simple solution is to just change your email pass-
word. If you get a spam email from a friend, be sure to email them, let them know they are sending spam, and caution
them to change their email password.
