I was a victim of skimming because
2 hours after taking some money out of
a cash machine in Soho, 300 pounds was
taken out of my account at another machine in Brixton - and I was nowhere near there at the time.

to skim traffic is to change a portion of links on a web page so that they don't direct to a destination originally suggested by their caption or image. This is done, for example, to divert some of the traffic on the TGPs to associated sites.
Setting skimming to 100, 80, 50 means first surfer's click will go to content (100% skim ratio), second will go to content with 80% probability, all others will go to content with 50% probability.

A way that Pat takes money from the cashiers till and costs the club revenue. Usually means going through a bottle every thirty minutes, taking one out of every 8 drafts, and one out of every thirty shots. Roughly costs about $150 a night. Also known as a great way to consider it severance pay and to take the train.
