Target will pay hack victims $10 million

Target will pay customers who suffered from a 2013 data breach up to $10,000 each in damages.

Reference www.cnn.com

On Thursday, a federal judge in St. Paul, Minnesota approved a $10 million offer by Target to settle a class action lawsuit, according to an attorney representing those who were hacked.

But don't get excited. It's unlikely anyone will actually receive $10,000.

Under the terms of the settlement, Target customers who can prove they were damaged by the data breach will get the first shot at the $10 million. For example, victims will be reimbursed for unauthorized credit card charges, bank fees or costs related to replacement IDs -- so long as they are documented.

There was rampant card fraud after the Target hack. But in reality, banks typically reimburse customers 100% in cases of card fraud.

Instead, the regulator persuaded Google to change the way its software worked.

Missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370: leading theories

Countless theories have surfaced about the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 nearly two weeks ago.

Some are plausible, some are downright absurd. There is, unfortunately, no clear answer as the families of the 239 passengers and crew — and the rest of the world — wait in agony. Even the most logical hypotheses about what happened to the 209-foot-long Boeing 777 have holes. No scenario solves this mystery.

Here is a look at some of the leading, plausible theories — and their flaws.

The World Ending And Islam

When Will The World End?

When will the world end? Will the world end in 21 12 2012? When will the time come for Dajjal to appear (Dajjal is the Anti Christ)? When will Imam Mahdi appear? What do we know about Yajuj and Majuj or Gog and Magog? Should we be concerned after being reminded nearly every other day about the end of world in 2012? Should we start to prepare for 2012 and dig out bunkers underground to save ourselves from the events that will take place in 2012? So many questions, but not enough trustworthy answers. Well, here is where you'll get it! Especially from an Islamic perspective on the end of the world.

My advice is not to worry at all because the world is not going to end on 21/12/2012. How do i know this and how can i advise you to not worry about this date? I don't. Only Allah knows. People who are taking everyone else for a ride think they know, but if no human being knows exactly when the world started, then how can any human know when the world will end? What do i know is that there is evidence in the Quran and Hadeeth in Islam regarding the matter of the the end of the world.

The Quran states, O Prophet the infidels ask you about the time of Qiyamah (end of the world, the Hour). So tell them that it's knowledge is with Allah only. (Surah Luqman)
