Luke 17:28-30 “Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built” but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all.

The weekend after Thanksgiving was big for more than just most of the nation’s retailers.
Retail chain Target reportedly was hit by a massive identity theft attack where as many as 40 million credit and debit card accounts could have had their information taken by hackers.
Target released a statement saying that customers who used credit or debit cards between November 27th and December 15th could have compromised accounts. Information stolen included customer names, credit and debit card numbers, expiration dates and even the three digit security code included on the back of the card.
Target did not release information about how the hackers cracked their system which reportedly included installing software on card readers. The company assured customers the problem has been fixed.
The U.S. Secret Service is investigating the theft because it involves currency transactions.
