This is a very nice Chinese restaurant. The food is good and tasty. The value is better than average and I never leave hungry. There are many selections on the menu with pictures of the dinners. I have been generally disappointed in the quality of Chinese restaurants in the east valley but Big Wa is the best I have found and is consistently good. This is my choice for entertaining friends and guests for casual Chinese food with a big taste!
Online Identity Theft – Don’t Get Scammed
Social engineering is the tactic used to take the con game to the masses. Today, con artists operate on a large scale using email and other mass communication tactics to dupe unsuspecting people into their traps and out of their money. Mass communications make it easy to play the numbers.
I am a former computer security officer my training helps keep me out of some trouble. However, you don’t need to be a professional background to protect your identity. You just need some common sense to avoid a lot of trouble.
If you have email, sooner or later you will receive correspondence from someone who wants to do you harm. They may offer you an opportunity to make money or may trick you into believing they have a business relationship with you. Because this tactic is effective, the con artist continues to use it.

Helping Homeless Veterans can be painless
Helping Homeless Veterans can be painless if you pay Arizona State taxes. In addition to the school credit that many take you may also take a tax credit up to $400 for a couple or $200 for a single by donating to the homeless or working poor. This amount comes straight off the top of your Arizona State taxes and can then be taken as a tax deduction on your federal taxes. You can contact me for a full explanation at 480-802-6810 or e-mail me at artgbeard@aol.com for the forms. This Tax credit is sponsored by the JWV Dept of the Southwest and all funds are used by the posts involved in helping the homeless regardless of religion or race. The post in Sun Lakes works with homeless veterans at Victory Place, Crossroads and other homeless veterans facilities in Phoenix. This tax credit must be finished and paid by the end of the year and not April 15. Read more
