UPS Store data breach – the post mortem can wait, it's time to warn and advise the victims
Up to 100,000 customers of The UPS Store may have reason to worry right now, after it was disclosed this week the company announced that it had suffered a massive data breach at 51 of its sites across the United States.
The breach was orchestrated by hackers who managed to plant malware onto point of sale (PoS) systems used at the company's stores, which went undetected by anti-virus software for months.
The UPS Store is just the latest in a long line of well-known retailers to have suffered from PoS malware in recent months. Past victims have included Target, Neiman Marcus, PF Changs, and most recently the SuperValu and Alberton's grocery stores.
PoS malware certainly seems to be a growing problem. So much so that in the last month the US government issued an advisory about the threat posed by the Backoff PoS malware.
The UPS Store, a subsidiary of the global shipping firm UPS, says that as of August 11th, the malware has been removed from all 51 impacted locations, and is at pains to underline that it is now safe to shop securely again.
However, because some systems were infected as far back as January 20th, 2014, the hackers appear to have had almost eight months to potentially steal customers' names, postal and email addresses, as well as payment card information.
I bet some of those 100,000 or so customers now wish that they had paid with cash.
That's if, of course, they even know that their credit and debit card details may be at risk.
Because, as The UPS Store's advisory explains, the company "does not have sufficient customer information to contact potentially affected customers".
In other words, if you don't happen to see the warning on the UPS Store website, or read one of the news articles about the breach, the first victims will probably know about if they're at risk is their accounts suffer fraudulent activity.
A full list of affected locations, along with the timeline for when the malware entered the network and when transactions became safe again, is on the UPS Store website.
To give it some credit, I'm impressed with the detail that The UPS Store has provided on its website, and how it has used social media channels (such as its Twitter account) to reach out to concerned customers.
My feeling is that you shouldn't judge a corporation by how it got hacked, but by how well it handles the aftermath and whether acts openly and respectfully to its customers.
Clearly there will need to be a post mortem, but right now the most important thing is to support those customers who might be victims – and provide them with advice on how to best protect themselves.
And I'm also pleased to see that Tim Davis, president of The UPS Store, hasn't been stopped by his legal team from accepting responsibility and isn't afraid of saying that the firm apologises. That's refreshing when so many corporations can't seem to manage a simple "sorry" to customers after a data breach.
"Please know we take our responsibility to protect customer information seriously and have committed extensive resources to addressing this incident. We understand this type of incident can be disruptive and apologize for any anxiety this may have caused."
Anyone who feels they might be at risk is advised to keep a close eye on their bank account statements, and make use of free credit monitoring offered by the company.

I'm much less impressed than you are because (1) their web site does not reveal that Social Security numbers and Driver's License numbers were involved for customers who had Mailbox Manager accounts, and (2) when I tweeted a comment about the SSNs, their Twitter team initially told me I was wrong (which got retweeted) until I told them to go look at page 5, paragraph 2 of the more detailed notification on the California Attorney General's website. Then they apologized and said I was correct.
Today, I suggested to the Twitter team that they notify corporate that they should modify their web site, but as of tonight, their web site still reads:
What information was exposed?
"Customer information may have been exposed as a result of this malware intrusion. The customer information that may have been exposed includes customers' names, postal addresses, email addresses and payment card information. Not all of this information may have been exposed for The UPS Store customers who used a credit or debit card at an impacted location during this period. At this time, we are not aware of any reports of fraud associated with the potential data compromise."
So customers aren't being notified, but their SSN and Driver's License numbers were involved, and they won't know that at all if they read the web site?
No, I am not impressed. Not at all.

The Northern California Section of the American College of Dentists (ACD) honored five members of the Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry community at the ACD's annual awards banquet on May 21 in Burlingame, Calif.
Class of 2011 student Dan Hammer was honored with an Outstanding Student Leader award, which recognizes him for his high level of achievement in academia as well as superior leadership abilities. Hammer has held several student government roles at the school, including student body president; ASDA District 11 trustee; ASDA chapter president; and Faculty Appointment and Tenure Student Committee member, among others. He also co-launched a new program on campus - the Dugoni Practical Leadership Initiative (DPLI) - which teaches participating students practical leadership skills.
Dr. Cindy Lyon received a Distinguished Faculty Member award in recognition of her outstanding service to the school and extraordinary dedication to dental education. Lyon's impact on students and her colleagues has been widespread. She currently serves as chair of the Department of Dental Practice, and is involved with organized dentistry through the California Dental Association Foundation, of which she currently serves as chair of the board of directors. She is a graduate of the DDS Class of 1986.
Dr. Bruce Peltier received the Dr. Joseph J. Krajewski Award for Merit. This award is given annually to a non-dentist whose activities have contributed to the advancement of the dental profession, and have enhanced the image of dentistry. Peltier currently serves as a professor of Psychology and Ethics, a role in which he directs the school's ethics program; teaches behavioral science and doctor-patient relationship skills; and counsels dental students.
Finally, Dr. Ariane Terlet, a graduate of the class of 1986 and current president of the dental school's Alumni Association, received the Dr. Willard C. Fleming Meritorious Service Award. This award is given to an ACD fellow whose activities have contributed to the advancement of the dental profession and its public appreciation.
These dedicated Dugoni School representatives were selected as award winners by a vote of school faculty members who are fellows of the ACD.
The event also included welcoming and closing remarks from Dr. Heidi Hausauer, a member of the Class of 1985 and a former faculty member at the dental school. Hausauer will serve as chair of the ACD Northern California Section through May 2012. The outgoing chair, Dr. Alan Budenz, is also a Dugoni School faculty member.
Founded in 1920, the American College of Dentists is the oldest national honorary organization for dentists. The mission of ACD is to promote ethics, professionalism and service within the dental profession. Membership is by invitation only. Fellows are selected based on their contributions to organized dentistry, oral health care, dental research, dental education, the profession and society.

Recently I've had to confront to php-fpm issue with constantly growing of available active process. It was reaching max_children and then restarted.
The graph shows "active processes" value from pool status from three servers (round robin balance).
The configuration:
pm.max_children = 100
pm.start_servers = 20
pm.min_spare_servers = 5
pm.max_spare_servers = 35
pm.max_requests = 2000
At 01AM I changed configuration to:
pm.max_children = 500
pm.max_requests = 500
This pool serves about 4k req/min (for all servers). I must admit other pools are working normally with the same settings (biggest pool serves ~12k req/min).
What could be a reason for such weired behavior?

CHATSWORTH, Calif. - AVN award-nominated performer Marco Banderas' new company Hot Zone Video has closed an exclusive three-year distribution deal with American XCess.
"Marco is one of the best male performers that has ever been," said American XCess general manager Harry Jose. "He brings a passion and enjoyment to his work that is very seldom seen. We are proud to be associated with Hot Zone video, and we know that the customers will thoroughly enjoy watching Marco's sizzling performances."
Banderas formed Hot Zone earlier this year with business partner Rigo Corleone, who serves as cameraman and editor on the company's productions. The duo recently wrapped the first Hot Zone release, Marco's Crazy Dreams, for a tentative fall 2007 release.
"Marco's Crazy Dreams is about my fantasies," Banderas told AVN. "In one scene, I am in jail with two girls [Devon Lee and Banderas' wife Lisa DeMarco] dressed up as sexy prison guards, and in another scene I am in a hospital with Sandra Romain as my nurse. We shot the movie in one day, and I performed in six scenes."
Publicist Wayne Hentai brought Banderas' work to the attention of American XCess. Hot Zone joins Jon Yuma's Nasty Pixxx, Chris King's Monarch XXX Media, Barry Wood and Jonathan Moore's More Wood Productions and Shameless Studios on the American XCess roster. The company also handles content from UK studios British Bukkake, Erotic Flesh Productions, Mad At It Productions, One Eyed Jack, Spanking Tomato and MSS Interactive.
Marco's Crazy Dreams co-stars Marie Luv (in an anal scene), Max and Alexis Love. Plans call for Hot Zone to launch additional series on a release schedule of one title per month. Future lines include Big Tit Heaven and Latina Sluts.
Banderas will continue directing for Lexington Steele's Mercenary Pictures while developing his own series for Hot Zone. He is also gearing up to launch his own website, MarcoBanderasXXX.com, which will offer exclusive hardcore content.

Pasadena, CA – Flashes appear on a baseball-size Martian rock in a series of images taken Saturday, July 12th by the Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI) camera on the arm of NASA's Curiosity Mars Rover. The flashes occurred while the rover's Chemistry and Camera (ChemCam) instrument fired multiple laser shots to investigate the rock's composition.
ChemCam's laser has zapped more than 600 rock and soil targets on Mars since Curiosity landed in the planet's Gale Crater in August 2012.
Dallas, TX – Obesity is common among U.S. Hispanics and is severe particularly among young Hispanics, according to research in the Journal of the American Heart Association (JAHA).
The first large-scale data on body mass index (BMI) and cardiovascular disease risk factors among U.S. Hispanic/Latino adult populations suggests that severe obesity may be associated with considerable excess risk for cardiovascular diseases.

Pasadena, CA – Researchers have discovered on the Red Planet the largest fresh meteor-impact crater ever firmly documented with before-and-after images. The images were captured by NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter.
The crater spans half the length of a football field and first appeared in March 2012. The impact that created it likely was preceded by an explosion in the Martian sky caused by intense friction between an incoming asteroid and the planet's atmosphere.
This is the largest fresh impact crater anywhere ever clearly confirmed from before-and-after images. It is 159 feet across. (NASA/JPL-Caltech/Univ. of Arizona)
Pasadena, CA – A new image from NASA's Curiosity Mars rover is the first ever from the surface of Mars to show an asteroid, and it shows two: Ceres and Vesta.
These two — the largest and third-largest bodies in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter — are the destinations of NASA's Dawn mission. Dawn orbited Vesta in 2011 and 2012, and is on its way to begin orbiting Ceres next year. Ceres is a dwarf planet, as well as an asteroid.
NASA's Curiosity Mars rover has caught the first image of asteroids taken from the surface of Mars. The image includes two asteroids, Ceres and Vesta. This version includes Mars' moon Deimos in a circular, exposure-adjusted inset and square insets at left from other observations the same night.
Pasadena, CA – Variations in the stuff that cements grains together in sandstone have shaped the landscape surrounding NASA's Curiosity Mars rover and could be a study topic at the mission's next science waypoint.
On a journey with many months yet to go toward prime destinations on the lower slope of Mount Sharp, Curiosity is approaching a site called "the Kimberley." Scientists on the team picked this location last year as a likely place to pause for investigation.
Sandstone layers with varying resistance to erosion are evident in this Martian scene recorded by the Mast Camera on NASA's Curiosity Mars rover on Feb. 25, 2014, about one-quarter mile (about 400 meters) from a planned waypoint called "the Kimberley." (NASA/JPL-Caltech/MSSS)
San Diego, CA – Hospitals that used key strategies, tools and approaches from the Target: Stroke initiative sped up treatment times, which was associated with fewer stroke patients having complications or dying, according to a science report presented at the American Stroke Association's International Stroke Conference 2014.
San Diego, CA – Women's blood clot risk remains elevated for at least 12 weeks after delivering a baby — twice as long as previously recognized, according to a large study presented at the American Stroke Association's International Stroke Conference 2014.
The chance of a blood clot rises during pregnancy, when platelets and other blood-clotting factors increase. «Read the rest of this article»
San Diego, CA – Exposure to common infections is linked to memory and brain function — even if the infections never made you ill, according to research presented at the American Stroke Association's International Stroke Conference 2014.
Researchers found an index of antibody levels caused by exposure to Chlamydia pneumoniae, Helicobacter pylori, cytomegalovirus, and herpes simplex viruses 1 and 2 was associated with worse cognitive performance, including memory, speed of mental processing, abstract thinking, planning and reasoning ability. «Read the rest of this article»
San Diego, CA – Women don't need to run marathons or do intense aerobics to reduce their stroke risk. Moderate-intensity exercise — such as brisk walking or playing tennis — may do the trick, according to research presented at the American Stroke Association's International Stroke Conference 2014.
The study found that moderate exercise also helps offset the increased stroke risk seen with postmenopausal women taking menopausal hormones, but not completely. «Read the rest of this article»

Every Friday I dedicate my post to as aspect of blogging, photography, or cooking that I am learning to improve my blog. See my first post on Food Photography Basics: 101 links.
What a week, Tuesday I had my first real post make Foodgawker. It wasn't the best thing I have submitted, but I threw it in there to give it a shot. It made the cut, and I was astounded. Over 1000 hits went to that single post (and I'm normally thrilled to get 600 hits a day).
I'm not sure if I retained any readers, but I was certainly aware of the power of the "Food P0rn" sites. Especially because most of my readers come from my beloved Finding Vegan, which is my favorite food p0rn site.
In case you were wondering, I submitted the same picture to Tastespotter. It was rejected for composition. I'm told that composition is just their catch all for "we couldn't find anything wrong, but we just didn't like it". The most important aspect of these sites is that they are judged by humans. And humans have different tastes. Your perfect shot may not be of a food the judge likes. There are professional food photographers that cannot get pictures posted. A couple interesting blog posts about getting accepted on the site and rejections someone actually gets are: Tastespotting Editor's secret advice on getting pictures accepted and Pardon My Crumbs' TasteSpotting Rejections (seriously, if she's being rejected for those what hope do us mere mortals stand)
I do however worry about submitting too many rejects to these sites. Especially when most are being rejected for "composition". Does anyone know if previous rejects affect future acceptances?
Either way, today's post is about dressing up your food for photography sake. A well styled food picture separates the people blogging about the food they ate and the food bloggers. Believe me it's been a long hard road for me.
Consider for example the touch that these flowers add to this brownie (this was my earliest attempt at food styling by the way, don't judge too harshly)
Accessorizing the shot can also turn a kinda boring looking dish into an exciting one.
My Chayote side dish was a little pale. I spiced it up a little by placing some strips of hot pepper right on top and setting up the rest of the scene to look like I was having a Mexican fiesta. Maybe it's not my most popular post, but I'm happy with the images. I don't think chayotes are a big attention grabber anyways.
While I was writing the draft of this post, I came across a post that I think has incredible food styling. Check out La Spelonca Vegetariana's mismatched pepper lids on Raw Spicy Coconut Avocado Soup in Bell Pepper Bowls.
While I don't have a post about food styling, some other bloggers do.
Oh She Glows has an excellent post on using props in food photography. She even has some before and after shots of before she accessorized and after. I love this tip:
A good rule of thumb with Food Styling is to remove one prop before shooting. You know the saying that you should remove one piece of jewelry after getting dressed? Well, the same applies here
Taylor Takes a Taste has a tutorial on how to create backgrounds for food photography. This is something I mean to do. I keep using my large collection of dollar store placemats, the beauty of my backyard, and my bricked front stoop as my background. I need to come up with something that looks a little more like an antique.
6 Bittersweets featured a guest post by a professional prop stylist. It's not in a list style and is a little wordy. But it has a great deal of fantastic information. To give you a taste of how great the post is, here's a quote:
You want them to be drawn into an alternate universe, get lost in the photo and forget about everything else! Props should create a world that is consistent stylistically with the recipe without overpowering the food.
It's not a normal blog but Digital Photography School has a great article called simply enough, 10 Tips to Improve your food photography. My favorite tip is #5, "emphasize the yum".
Recipe Girl has a post going over some of her styling props and accessories. The post is titled if you are into food photography and styling, I really need to paint some boards to go with my collection of place-mats.
I'm sure there are plenty of other posts out there about how to style your food. I'm sure some are better illustrated than others. The best tip I have seen for getting your picture onto the food p0rn sites is to search for similar recipes that have been accepted and get an idea for what has been accepted in the past.
The blogosphere is abuzz with this book as well: From Plate to Pixels. I haven't read it, but apparently it's a great how to guide to food styling. If anyone wanted to buy it for me, I wouldn't complain 😉
Are you actively working on your food styling when you post blog posts? Know of other resources that should be on this list?

|East Carolina 101, Milligan 45
|Pirate Basketball Central
|Basketball Home | Season Statistics | Roster | Fact Book | ECU All-Access - Watch the games online! | Conference USA Basketball | NCAA Basketball
GREENVILLE, N.C. --- Junior Miguel Paul scored a game-high 19 points in the East Carolina debut to lead six East Carolina players in double figures as the Pirates rolled to a 101-45 season-opening win over Milligan College Friday night inside Williams Arena at Minges Coliseum. The victory was the 12th consecutive season-opening victory for ECU and the 101 points marked the first time the Pirates broke the 100-point barrier since a 100-59 win over UMBC on November 25, 2003.
The Pirates rushed to a 8-0 lead 3:13 into the game on 3-pointer and lay-up by Shamarr Bowden, lay-up from Corvonn Gaines and a Robert Sampson free throws. Milligan got on the board at the 16:19 mark on a jumper by Kyle Grisby, only to be answered by back-to-back 3-pointers from Erin Straughn as the Pirates built and 12-point lead, forcing the Buffaloes to take a timeout.
Milligan cut the Pirates' lead to five at 16-11, before ECU scored seven unanswered to push its lead back to double figures. The Pirates outscored the Buffaloes 28-7 over the final 13 minutes of the first half to lead 44-18 at the break. Paul led the way at intermission with 12 points and four assists, while Bowden and Straughn had eight each. The Pirate defense limited the Buffaloes to 30 percent shooting in the opening stanza and forced 13 turnovers (leading to 19 ECU points).
The second half, which began the same way the first half did with Bowden draining a 3, was more of the same as the Pirates methodically extended their lead to 41 in the first three minutes. Paul scored seven straight points following Bowden's basket.
ECU shot a blistering 61.9-percent from behind the arc, connecting on 13-of-21 attempts. Freshman Paris Roberts-Campbell made 4-of-5 3-point attempts, while Bowden was a perfect 3-of-3. Paul and Straughn sank two each.
Of the six players that scored double figures for ECU, five didn't play for the Pirates last season. Junior college transfer Maurice Kemp posted a double-double in his debut with 15 points and 11 rebounds, as did senior Austin Steed who finished with 11 points and 12 rebounds. Bowden and Roberts-Campbell also scored 11 points apiece, while Straughn netted 10.
The Pirates held a 52-28 rebounding edge over the NAIA Buffaloes, scoring 31 second chance points. They also forced 24 turnovers, which led to 33 points.
Milligan was led by Kyle Grisby's 15 points, while Mickey Woods had 10 points and Cordero Seymour grabbed nine rebounds.
The final margin of 56 was the fifth largest margin of victory in school history and most since defeating Radford by 47, 89-42, during the 2002-03 season.
ECU will next be in action when it returns to action against Campbell on Monday, November 14. Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. in Buies Creek.

On Feb. 9 Miami Herald announces that a celebrity boxing match between George Zimmerman and DMX has been canceled after the promoter, Damon Feldman started receiving death threats over the match. Feldman tweeted earlier this week, "Done with George Zimmerman if you had a major payday sitting in front of you, I know no one else would walk away like I did ***Next!!"
The match would have pitted the acquitted killer, George Zimmerman against the trash-talking rapper DMX, however, his agent says that he never agreed to the match so it won't be a conflict in his concert schedule. Feldman started getting death threats on all platforms of social media after the fight was announced on Wednesday, Trayon Martin's birthday.
The fight was originally scheduled for March 1 then changed to March 15 before being canceled all together. Reverand Al Sharpton, the creator of the "Cancel George Zimmerman's 'Celebrity' Boxing Match" Facebook page, and civil rights advocate says that there would be complications and backlash from glorifying Zimmerman in any fashion. Because of all the threats made, Feldman had to get a bodyguard because he didn't know if they were real or not.
Some are very upset over this cancellation, namely billionaire Alki David because he backed the fight and was planning on televising it on his FilmOn.com online television service.
It seems as if canceling the fight, overall, was the best move to be made, considering lives were being threatened and associating with George Zimmerman in any fashion has serious implications that haven't gone over well for anyone involved.

I have a developer workstation that has registered DDR2 ECC DIMMs already installed. I'm planning on getting some more RAM. Can I add memory modules that aren't ECC and/or registered? I mean, does the machine work with both ECC and non-ECC modules installed? I guess registered ECC memory is at least more expensive?
ECC and non-ECC can be mixed on the same motherboard if the motherboard does not require ECC. (Funny, I just tried it this morning.) Your BIOS also has to be able to force the ECC to operate in non-ECC.
Do you know if the motherboard requires ECC? What's the model?
I had this problem with an HP server in the past. You can make it work, but it is a hit or miss thing. It is very dependant on the memory modules being mixed. Some work together, some do not. I mixed and matched a few different combinations. Some did work, others did not. In the end I decided to cut my losses and just move forward because the larger modules I had did not play well with the system. In my case I bought non ECC memory to replace the small sticks of ECC the system came with. They gave me a whole 256 MB of ram with that server so keeping the ECC was hardly worth doing. The new memory worked fine and the only thing that it did was complain that non HP memory was being used.
My advice is just buy a uniform memory module type once you find one that works. Ditch the ECC and just replace all of it. You could have anomalies due to the variances between the sticks and their performance capabilities.
I have heard it will work if the motherboard is ok with it, but it is not advised or recommended by anyone. Using mixed RAM also defeats the purpose of using ECC Ram in the first place though.

An intrepid Icelandic adventure
I never thought I would be able to say that I've been to Iceland. But I have—thanks to a class I took at Penn State Fayette, The Eberly, Campus. The class was STS 201H: Climate Change, Energy, and Biodiversity.
Because this was a team-taught Honors course, we had a different speaker nearly every week from several different departments. One wouldn't think that the English and the Business departments would have much in common, but there is at least one similarity between them: they both had something to say about the environment. Dr. Evelyn Pluhar-Adams, professor of philosophy, spoke about the effect that factory farming is having on both the environment and us. Dr. Gib Prettyman, associate professor of English, lectured about deep ecology and how we are losing our connection to nature and the world around us. We also heard lectures on the financial side of the climate change debate, the language of climate change and the science of it.
I don't think anyone on the trip will forget the disappearing glacier we visited. It was quiet. Black sand led the way to its shrinking edge. It seemed expansive, but it wasn't. It was much smaller than it had been just a few decades ago, when Iceland didn't have to worry about its own economic crisis.
Incidentally, one of Iceland's largest exports is fish. We sampled crab soup, lobster soup, fish and chips, salmon, and pickled herring (well, some dared to try the pickled herring). A large part of the trip, for me, was trying the traditional cuisine, which included skyr, a yogurt dish. We truly ate our way through Reykjavik, tasting this, trying that, sharing new favorites. We also shared something much bigger: the experience of a lifetime.
I'm so glad I had the opportunity to go on this trip, because if I hadn't, not only would I have missed out on visiting an amazing country, but I also would have missed out on getting to know my friends. We learned more about the people we thought we already knew. We shared this experience, and in turn, shared so much more.

Diet Plans That Work
Diet Plans Introduction
I would like to congratulate you on visiting this diet plans site. I suppose you are looking for dieting tips and plans. If so, you are in the right place.
As you may know, dieting is probably one of the challenging but rewarding goals you can attempt to achieve. Several people are able to exercise consistently but get discouraged when they are not getting results. If this sounds familiar, then you should consider altering your diet. Altering your diet (coupled with exercise) can help transform your body, improve your health, and accomplish other health-related goals.
However, you must make reasonable dieting plans and stick with them through both the ups and downs. You do not want to fall for the fad diets that promise astonishing results in record time or without much work. Reasonable dieting means slowly making necessary meal plan changes that allow your body to adjust. For instance if you love sweets, it would be difficult to stop eating sweets immediately. However, you can work to reduce the amount of sweets you eat over time and begin to eat healthy alternatives. As your body adjusts, you will eventually eliminate most (if not all of) sweets from
your daily diet.
Also, a diet plan requires that you assess your current eating habits and record a journal of the amount of calories and the protein, fat, and carbohydrate mix you consume daily. Based off of your activity level and fitness-related goals, you can make the necessary meal plan adjustments. For the rest of this article, I am going to discuss the proper mindset and a few popular diet plans you could consider.
Diet Plans Mindset
As you consider the diet plans in the remainder of this article to implement, you must maintain a positive mental attitude and persevere. You must be patient and not get addicted to consistently measuring your potential weight loss. Also, it would be hard for you to identify any changes in your body by looking at yourself in the mirror. Instead, put the scale away and evaluate your success by the clothes you wear. If your current clothes start to get loose and/or you can get into clothes that were once tight; you know that you are making progress. Also, try to access other benefits that can occur from healthy eating. These could entail an increase in energy, alertness, and etcetera. I was visiting this website the other day and found these awesome Ironmonkey Fitness
If you experience setbacks on occasions such as an eating binge, do not feel guilty. This will occur at times. Instead, exercise harder the following day and get back to your normal dieting routine. As I mentioned earlier, there will be peaks and valleys along your journey towards dieting success.
Finally, reward yourself at times for your hard work. This could include a cheat meal or snack once a week or for one day. This reward could help you resist temptations and not completely eliminate food you love (that is not the healthiest). By celebrating these small victories, you are more than likely to continue with your new lifestyle over the long-term.
Diet Plans Snapshot
The majority of diet plans includes limitations on carbohydrates and fats. They also include the projected percentage of fat, protein, and carbohydrates for your daily consumption. They also include a calorie calculator that can determine the amount of calories you should eat daily. This calculator will also account for your physical characteristics such as weight and activity level. Before you participate in any diet, be sure to conduct your due diligence and seek advice from your doctor or nutritionist. Highlighted below are four diets you could check out.
The Cabbage Soup diet is one that has been around for quite a while. It entails eating cabbage soup when you get hungry. This results in your body feeling full and helps you maintain a low calorie intake on a daily basis. This diet also restricts oily and fatty foods helping you to lose weight. However, this diet may not be ideal for the long-term.
Dr. Connie Guttersen is responsible for The Sonoma diet; a diet that includes vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and etcetera. Portion control is implemented via plate size instead of calorie counting. The Sonoma diet encourages eating food slowly. As a bonus, a glass of wine is allowed after the first week and a half on this diet.
We recommend this site for more information on paleo diet
The Slim Fast diet is a very popular one that has been around for several years. It is a nutritional diet that consists of a rich supply of protein and calcium that helps control hunger for a few hours. It encourages individuals to eat six times daily. The food you can eat consists of vegetables, fruits, nuts, lean meat, and so on. Just like the previous two diet plans, it is one that can help with weight loss.
Finally, the Negative Calorie diet entails eating food with total calories that are offset by the calories burned from digestion. The calories consumed are lower than the calories expended from digesting this diet's food; aiding weight loss. The food for this diet consists of roughage, vegetables, and fruits. Just like the Cabbage Soup diet, this program may be hard to sustain beyond a short period of time.
Dieting coupled with exercise is crucial for your health-related goals. Healthy eating may include eating multiple meals during the day and controlling your portion size. It also consists of monitoring the beverages you consume and reducing the consumption of sugar or carbohydrate-filled ones. Exercise will consist of a healthy dose of weight lifting, cardio, and flexibility training. It will also consist of varying these exercise routines on a daily basis to reduce the chances of your body adjusting to them. A positive mindset is also essential to help you deal with the ebbs and flows associated with dieting. It is also required to help you keep your motivation and stay on track towards achieving your health-related goals.
In conclusion, there are several diet plans you could consider. The trick is to conduct your due diligence and narrow down your list to a few options. Next you should participate in one of these diet plans, monitor your progress, and make adjustments. Over time, from personal experience, you will know which… diet plans are best for you.

College Hockey:Western Michigan Eliminates Notre Dame
Late Season Surge Not Good Enough For Irish
SOUTH BEND, Ind. — The Notre Dame hockey season ground to a halt as Western Michigan's Ryan Crane and Mike Bishai scored twice and Jeff Campbell added a goal and three assists in the Bronco's 7-2 win on Saturday night.
The loss, snapped Notre Dame's six-game unbeaten streak (4-0-2) and ended Notre Dame's late season playoff drive on the final night of the regular season.
The Irish loss coupled with Bowling Green's 3-2 win over Ferris State moved the Falcons into a tie for ninth with Alaska-Fairbanks in the final standings. By virtue of the first tiebreaker (league wins, BG – 8, UAF -7), Bowling Green moves into ninth with UAF taking the 10th and final spot. Notre Dame and Lake Superior State finished 11th and 12th respectively.
The loss ends the Irish season with a 10-22-7 overall record and a 7-15-6 mark in league play. Western Michigan finishes the year at 19-11-6 and 12-10-6 in the CCHA. The Broncos finish sixth in the standings and open the playoffs next weekend at Northern Michigan.
"This is a huge disappointment for all of us," said a dejected head coach Dave Poulin following the game. "We really put on a great late season run. We played on the road and we played well to get back to the point where we controlled our own destiny. You want to be looking to do it yourself, not looking for help from someone else to make it. We just didn't get it done tonight.
Western Michigan scored the only goal of the first period as Crane got his first of the night and second of the year at 12:48. The Irish had plenty of chances, but failed to dent Bronco goaltender Jeff Reynaert who made 13 of his 42 saves in the first period.
"We had plenty of great chances early in the game, but couldn't put them away. Reynaert held us off the scoreboard. He was the difference early," said Poulin.
The Broncos broke the game open with three second period goals, getting two on the power play. Campbell beat Jeremiah Kimento from in close with the man-advantage just 20 seconds into the second stanza and Bishai got his first of the night at 4:33 to give WMU a 3-0 lead.
Crane got the game winner at 18:28 as his centering pass deflected in off Kimento off a scramble around the Irish net.
"Special teams have been a problem all year long and we saw it in the second period," said Poulin. "They capitalized on their power play and we didn't. We got great movement and some great opportunities, but couldn't score. We struggled all year in that area and its fitting that that's what ended it for us."
In the third period, the Irish were forced to open things up and take chances gambling to get back in the game. Aaron Gill cut the lead to 4-1 with his 11th of the season at 3:09 and the Irish offense came to life.
Any hopes of rallying were quickly stopped by Reynaert who faced 20 third period shots and made 18 stops. Western scored three times in a 2:09 span of the third. Bishai made it 5-1 with his 20th at 13:44, Brett Rumble got his seventh of the season at 13:44 and David Gove closed out the Bronco scoring with his 20th at 15:53.
Notre Dame's Sam Cornelius closed out the game, scoring off a face-off win by senior Chad Chipchase for his first goal of the season at 19:06 for the final of 7-2.
"This is a tough way to go out. We are losing a very good senior class. They are really special kids and not making the playoffs is a hard way to finish out you career," said Poulin.
"I told them after the game, that the lesson to be learned here is don't leave until the last game. Every point is important and means something. You just can't turn it on at the end and make it that way."

|Claude Noel became the first Head Coach since the franchise's relocation to Winnipeg and the sixth Head Coach in the history of the franchise dating back to the inception of the Atlanta Thrashers in 1999. Last year, the Kirkland Lake, ON native coached the American Hockey League's Manitoba Moose to a record of 43-30-1-6. The Moose reached the North Division Final of the Calder Cup Playoffs where they were eliminated in seven games by the Hamilton Bulldogs.
|Noel spent three seasons behind the bench with the Columbus Blue Jackets as an Assistant Coach before joining the Moose in 2010. In his third year with the Blue Jackets, Noel spent most of the season as an Assistant Coach before taking over from Ken Hitchcock as interim Head Coach on February 3, 2010. The Blue Jackets finished the 2009-10 season with a record of 10-8-4-2 under the guidance of Noel. During his three years with the club, the Blue Jackets compiled a record of 107-102-15-22 in 246 games. Before his time with the Blue Jackets, Noel spent four seasons as Head Coach of the American Hockey League's Milwaukee Admirals, affiliate of the Nashville Predators. During that time, he led the club to a 183-94-12-31 regular season record, three 100-point seasons and two West Division titles. During the 2003-04 season, the club compiled a 46-24-7-3 record and went 16-6 in the playoffs en route to capturing the organization's first-ever Calder Cup Championship. Noel was subsequently honoured with the Louis A.R. Pieri Memorial Award as AHL Coach of the Year. Noel made his coaching debut in the ECHL with the Roanoke Valley Rebels in 1990-91 and served as the Head Coach and Director of Hockey Operations for the ECHL's Dayton Bombers from 1991-93. In 1993, he joined the Kalamazoo Wings (later the Michigan K-Wings), the International Hockey League affiliate of the Dallas Stars, as an Assistant Coach. He succeeded then coach, Ken Hitchcock, behind the bench during the 1995-96 season and served in that capacity through the 1997-98 campaign. From 1998-02, he was an Assistant Coach with the Milwaukee Admirals and in 2002-03 was named ECHL Coach of the Year with the Toledo Storm before returning to Milwaukee as Head Coach prior to the 2003-04 season.

Brady-Manning XV was a flop last week. The debates leading up to the game proved to be better than the game itself. Who is the better quarterback? Who has had the better career? Where do they stack up on the list of greatest quarterbacks of all-time? Well, I haven't been around since the invention of football, but I've seen plenty of football in my lifetime and I've seen plenty of great quarterbacks. Here's my list of the greatest quarterbacks of the last thirty years. Let me know what you think.
10. Warren Moon
It's a shame Warren Moon got such a late start in the NFL. He played his first NFL game at the age of 28 after dominating the Canadian Football League for six years (won the Grey Cup championship five of those six years). If you combined his CFL stats with his NFL ones, Moon would rank second in total yards passing. Despite his late start, Moon ranks 6th all-time in passing yards and 8th in career TD passes in NFL history. Moon threw the best spiral of any quarterback I've ever seen.
9. Troy Aikman
Troy Aikman didn't do anything spectacular, except to lead his teams to three Super Bowl championships (if you put stock in those kind of things). After a rocky start to his career (0-11 record his rookie season), he became one of the more accurate passers in NFL history. Today, completing 65% of your passes is commonplace, but Aikman was one of the first to complete 65% passes on a regular basis. He was the protypical "game manager." He only threw over 20 touchdowns in one season. He didn't have to when he had someone like Emmitt Smith in his backfield. You, simply, can't overlook those three rings.
8. Jim Kelly
Should Jim Kelly be punished because his teams went to four consecutive Super Bowls but never won one? What if John Elway never eeked out two championships at the end of his career, would we think less of Elway? Kelly's overall career was shorter than a lot of the guys on this list. He retired at age 36. Kelly also got a late start to his NFL career (age 26) due to playing a couple of years in that failed experiment called the USFL. You have to give Kelly bonus points for playing in the cold weather of Buffalo as well. Imagine the numbers "Machine Gun" Kelly would have put up playing in the warm weather of California or Florida. I fear history may forget how great Kelly was.
7. Brett Favre
Maybe if Brett Favre retired the first time he said he would, I would have moved him up on my list. Then again, if he didn't play the extra years, he may not have owned basically ever NFL record (yards, completions, TD passes, wins, yada, yada, yada) there is for quarterbacks. There is no denying he is the toughest quarterback I have ever seen. Oh yeah, he also holds the record for most consecutive games started (321) by a QB. He won three consecutive MVP awards (1995-1997) and one Super Bowl. He was a little too unpredictable for my tastes. His improvisational play is why his fans loved him, but it's why I don't place him higher on my list. I just saw him make too many bone-headed decisions. In addition to the other records, Favre also holds the NFL records for most interceptions and most fumbles by a QB. Like I said, he owns almost every record.
6. Steve Young
Similar to Warren Moon, Steve Young had to wait a long time to get his chance at starting in the NFL. Similar to Jim Kelly, Young played two seasons in the short-lived USFL. He got clobbered for two years with the historically-bad Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the mid-1980's. Then he served for four years as Joe Montana's apprentice. But when finally given the chance to take over the reins of a good team at the age of 30, Young proved how good he was. From that point on (1991-1999), Young had a career record of 84-30 and completed 66.4% of his passes while throwing 198 touchdowns and only 80 interceptions. He was a two-time NFL MVP and three-time Super Bowl champion. He was also one of the first really great running quarterbacks I could remember. I'll never forget the run he had against the Vikings in 1988.
5. Peyton Manning
Peyton Manning has a chance to still climb on this list. Manning is 37 years old. Kelly had already retired at this age. John Elway cemented his legacy by winning two Super Bowls after age 37. Brett Favre broke all the QB records by playing into his 40's. A week from now, Manning will have a shot for his second Super Bowl championship. If he sticks around a few more years, he may end up with more than Tom Brady. Wouldn't that be something after all the postseason ridicule he has taken?
I deduct points for playing most of his career in a dome. I also deduct points for playing in what I consider the NFL's Steroid Era. It's not that I am accusing anyone of doing steroids, but the rule changes helping the offenses this past decade have artificially-enhanced all quarterback and receiver stats.
4. Dan Marino
If you ask me which quarterback in history would I want to lead my team in a straight-out, mano-a-mano, aerial-attack shootout, I'd pick Dan Marino. Best pure passer with the quickest release I've ever seen. When Marino came to town, fans shuddered in fear. You could pencil him in for 300 yards and three touchdowns back in the day before those numbers became typical. Marino would probably throw for 500 yards per game with the rules the way they are today. Marino, along with his receivers Mark Clayton and Mark Duper, were pure entertainment during their heyday for Dolphins fans... and a pure nightmare for opponents.
3. Tom Brady
There was a point in time when Tom Brady (circa 2005) was trending to become, indisputably, the greatest quarterback of all-time. Three Super Bowl championships in his first four seasons would do that. So would a 10-0 record in his first ten playoff games. Unfortunately, the second half of Brady's career, while great statistically, hasn't produced any more championships. His play in the postseason the last seven or eight years hasn't been greatest-of-all-time worthy. Unlike the other quarterbacks on this list, with the exception of Randy Moss for a couple of years, Brady was never truly given star receivers to work with. And that's a shame.
2. John Elway
John Elway can probably thank Terrell Davis for being this high on the list. It's always good when you have a 2,000-yard rusher behind you. If Elway had never won a Super Bowl, he'd probably be lumped with Dan Marino as the best quarterback never to have won the Super Bowl. It took Davis to come along late in Elway's career to allow him to get not just one, but two rings. Elway may be the best athlete on this list. He passed up a baseball career to play football. He had the strongest arm I've ever seen. He could throw lasers. He could also run like a gazelle. His mobility is what puts him ahead of Brady and Manning. He also had that clutch gene as evidenced by The Drive against the Cleveland Browns in 1986. Bonus points again for playing in the cold of Denver his entire career.
1. Joe Montana
Joe Montana is the greatest quarterback I've ever seen, and it's not even close. For a time, Brady was soaring close to that rarefied air, but he just couldn't sustain the momentum. Montana was just the perfect quarterback playing under the perfect system with the perfect coach (Bill Walsh) who happened to be an offensive genius. He had the offensive weapons in Jerry Rice and Roger Craig. Montana was the perfect conductor to orchestrate the entire operation. He was poise personified. 4-0 in Super Bowls. 11 TD passes and 0 interceptions playing against the best the AFC had to offer in those four Super Bowls. His game-winning, 92-yard scoring drive against the Bengals in Super Bowl XXXIII was a text book two-minute drill. Montana didn't have the strongest arm. He wasn't the greatest athlete. Montana did know how to win and, after all, isn't that what sports are all about?

I emailed Navteq about getting an updated map set for my 2004 Cayenne with CD nav system, and I got the response "There are no map updates" So, I'm assuming I'm screwed for new maps. Talk about regressing to the stone age; I'm half tempted to rip the system out and just put something functional in. I heard the m0bridge unit will allow for video feed from a carpc :) My question is: are there any known solutions for updating the Navteq mapset? I have imaged my CD, and looked at the base fileset; I'll run a bit more deeper shortly. So far, there's a propriatary setup but I was able to alter the files listed in order, and even managed to change which mapfiles existed. However, I think Navteq moved to DVD format the next model year, and those files are likely too big to be on a CD.

Recruiting locally, Nationally and Globally
The oil and gas industry is a major contributor to the Australian economy. In 2010 the industry accounted for about 4.8 per cent of the total GDP and generated estimated revenue of A$49.1 billion and A$43.6 billion, respectively.
Australia's biggest export in the industry is LNG. Australia is now the 18th largest producer of natural gas, the seventh largest exporter of LNG in the world and the third-largest LNG exporter in the Asia-Pacific Region. The outlook for Australia's LNG industry is for continued high growth, with exports forecast to rise dramatically from 7.8 million tons in 1999 to 20 million tons by 2010.

The Best and Worst of 2010
Best News for Art Lovers
Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Bentonville finally announced an opening date: 11/11/11. That will be more than five years after construction began on the museum, expected to bring crowds of tourists to northwest Arkansas to see some of the finest American art anywhere.
Worst Sketch Comedy Debut
There is nothing funny about being fired. Certainly no one was laughing when three reporters and a photographer from KARK-TV, Channel 4, were fired over a newsroom spoof they filmed at their then-workplace, which was subsequently posted to YouTube for the world to see. There's a good chance nobody was laughing at their handiwork, either. The short spots lampooned the world of small-market TV news and dropped dozens of F-bombs but failed to hit any comic targets.
Best Retail Improvement
It wasn't that long ago that retail experts were preparing obituaries for Dillard's Inc. of Little Rock. Near the end of 2008, its stock price had sunk to $2.50 and sales were plummeting. But since then, the stock price has been climbing. Last week, it was trading at $37 a share. And for the first three quarters of Dillard's current fiscal year, Dillard's reported a net income of $70 million, up from a net loss of $11 million for the same period last year.
Worst Marketing Decision
Little Rock National Airport Executive Director Ron Mathieu's taxpayer-funded $40,000 ad buy for a 7-foot-by-10-foot spot on the football field at Little Rock Christian Academy, the private school his son attends. It didn't help his case that Mathieu obfuscated when, months before the Arkansas Times broke the story, he was quizzed by airport Commissioner Thomas Schueck about why the ad budget for the airport was $40,000 more than the year before. He mentioned something about pushing the airport's website. LRCA returned the money and Mathieu apologized and began repaying expenses he charged to airport credit cards.
Best New Martha Stewart
That would be P. Allen Smith, the founder of a growing – literally – media empire. Gardening guru, designer, writer, TV host, Smith has even impressed The New York Times, which in August devoted 2,400 words to the entrepreneur, based in Little Rock and with an estate in Roland.
Worst Public Scolding
Johnny Allison, colorful chairman of Home BancShares Inc. of Conway, didn't seem to be joking when he realized that no investment banker from Stephens Inc. attended the bank holding company's annual shareholders' meeting in April. Representatives from Howe Barnes Hoefer Arnett of Chicago, RBC Capital Markets of New York and Keefe Bruyette & Woods of Richmond, Va., found their way to The Peabody Little Rock, but "I guess it's too far for Stephens to drive over here," Allison said, knowing full well that The Peabody is connected by a skywalk to the Stephens Inc. building across the street. "I'll remember that the next time I talk to them, and they'll remember it forever."
Best Educational Development I
Starting in the fall of 2010, Arkansas high school students are required to take a unit of economics in order to receive a diploma.
Best Educational Development II
The Ross Foundation and Southern Bancorp, both of Arkadelphia, announced in November that current seniors and future graduates of Arkadelphia High School who are eligible for Arkansas lottery-funded scholarships will have the balance of their college tuition and fees paid by the new Arkadelphia Promise Scholarship. Last week, Southern Bancorp's Delta Bridge Project announced a $263,000, three-year matching grant to establish the Great River Promise Scholarship program to help graduates of high schools in Phillips County to attend Phillips Community College of the University of Arkansas.
Worst Educational Development
The average student who graduated from an Arkansas college or university in 2009 owed almost $20,000 in student loans.
Best Student Achievement
University of Arkansas teams mentored by Carol Reeves won nine of 14 national and international business plan competitions they entered in 2010. "Can you imagine – against MIT, Harvard, Stanford, London School of Economics – that MBA students from little ol' UA have opened a serious can of kick-butt on all of them?" asked UA entrepreneurship instructor Jeff Amerine.
Worst Revisionist History
Under pressure from the federal Office of Thrift Supervision, First Federal Bancshares of Arkansas, the publicly traded holding company for First Federal Bank of Harrison, restated its 2009 results, increasing its net loss for the year to $46.2 million from the $27 million it originally claimed.
Best Safeguard to Property Values
The cachet of Little Rock's Prospect Terrace neighborhood was juiced up considerably when Cliff Lee saw a 5,700-SF house he just had to have. The residential deal by the left-handed ace (now with the Philadelphia Phillies) weighed in at a whopping $2.85 million. Bet this major-league transaction bumped up the comparable sales data for Prospect Terrace.
Best Retention-Expansion News
Announcement of a $62.5 million, 20-acre office development for Southwest Power Pool Inc. in west Little Rock generated smiles for economic boosters.
The 150,000-SF office building and a 33,000-SF operations center will allow SPP, which oversees an electricity power grid in eight states, to consolidate its Little Rock operations. The project also will house an expanded staff envisioned to include 150 new workers during the next three years.
Worst Economic Development Fizzle
That would be the Polymarin Composites plant that was supposed to bring 630 jobs to central Arkansas, along with another 200 by supplier Wind Water Technology. After the big announcement in late 2008, the Dutch company announced a delay of "three to six months" in late 2009. By mid-year, Polymarin's local phone number had been disconnected, its parent company no longer listed an American branch on its website and the 300,542-SF industrial space that Polymarin had secured in a former Levi Strauss & Co. distribution center at 15000 Panatela Parkway was back on the market.
Worst Performance by a Bankruptcy Petitioner
Northwest Arkansas real estate developer Brandon Barber took the witness stand in U.S. Bankruptcy Court to explain the inconsistencies in his bankruptcy filings. He couldn't do it. A bankruptcy judge denied his bankruptcy, which leaves him on the hook for the unsecured portion of his bankruptcy claim – more than $30 million.Worst Government Defeat
The estate of Charles Murphy Jr. battled the IRS – and won. Years after Murphy's death in 2002, the IRS sent the estate a bill for back taxes for an additional $41.8 million. The estate held its nose and paid the bill, but then sued to get the money back. In the summer, a federal judge ordered the IRS to repay the estate $58.4 million, for the back taxes and interest. The IRS first filed paperwork saying it would appeal the ruling, but then reconsidered and dismissed the appeal.
Best Kiss
That occurred when Curt Bradbury, COO of Stephens Inc. of Little Rock, walked onto the trading floor at Crews & Associates, Stephens' bond house rival, in November and laid a kiss on the cheek of Crews CEO Rush Harding. Harding had made a $100,000 gift to help the Arkansas Arts Center reduce its debt, and he did it in honor of Bradbury and his wife, Chucki.
Worst One-Two Blow
A criminal indictment on five counts of loan fraud and Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing provided a one-two punch in July for Little Rock developer Steve Clary. Subsequent courtroom documents indicated that his personal fortune plummeted from $92 million to nothing in three years. Hammered by failing business ventures outside of real estate, Clary allegedly borrowed money under false pretenses in a vain attempt to stay on his feet.
Best Way to Draw Ex-Employer's Ire
Officials at Little Rock's One Bank & Trust weren't happy to discover that Kelly Harbert allegedly defrauded the bank of at least $277,800. Soon after her dismissal, bank execs were even less happy to learn the former commercial loan officer allegedly would be traveling to Cabo San Lucas for some fun in the sun.
One Bank considered her vacation plans to be in bad form, went after Harbert in court and sought, among other things, to restrict her passport options.
Worst Evidence of a Debilitating Illness
The October sentencing hearing for bank fraudster Dana Washburn of Rogers lasted three hours and was interrupted by about a half-dozen trips to the restroom by the defendant. But extensive evidence of Washburn's severe urinary incontinence was undermined by her acknowledgement that she had taken three vacations to Mexico this year, international travel that prosecutors only became aware of because it was mentioned in her medical records. U.S. District Judge Leon Holmes was not persuaded that Washburn's condition was such a hardship that she shouldn't have to serve time in a federal prison; he sentenced her to 41 months, which will commence in February.
Worst Ending for an Arkansas Company
National Home Centers Inc. made a 38-year run as a family-controlled enterprise before a Chapter 11 bankruptcy sale ended the show. A court-approved $15 million sale of assets to Stock Building Supply Holdings LLC of Raleigh, N.C., took care of the secured creditors and preserved some jobs. "It's a funeral, I tell you," said Dwayne Newman, company founder. "The outcome was just awful, to start something and it end like this. I figured I would die, and some National Home Center entity would be around, and it wouldn't have vanished."
Best Compliment for an Undergarment
Women are saying of Dillard's new 3-D Curves Wire bra that "I could sleep in this thing," according to Bill Dillard III, VP of merchandising at Dillard's.
Best Effort to Maintain One's Lifestyle
Mary Anne Shula, who is married to NFL Hall of Fame Coach Don Shula, carried out a legal battle with her former stepson, Warren A. Stephens, the CEO of Stephens Inc., over a $1 million annual alimony payment from the estate of her former husband, Jackson T. "Jack" Stephens. Mary Anne Shula sued the estate in an attempt to have it post a bond to ensure the lifetime annual alimony payments don't stop. A Pulaski County Circuit Court judge ruled that the estate didn't have to post the bond.
Best Vote of Confidence
In February, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation of Battle Creek, Mich., announced that it would send $11 million to Southern Bancorp of Arkadelphia to further its mission of revitalizing the Mississippi Delta. But the money didn't come in the form of a traditional grant. Instead, the foundation made a $5 million equity investment in the rural development bank company itself and deposited an additional $6 million.
Best Way Not to Rewin Clients
John Turbeville counted it a privilege to have worked with the city of Jacksonville Policemen's Pension & Relief Fund since 1989. But when the Little Rock financial adviser lost the $5.8 million-asset pension fund as a client despite his lobbying efforts, Turbeville decided if you can't woo 'em, sue 'em. Turbeville claimed pension fund officials weren't responsive to his request for public information and didn't provide all the public information requested. The pension fund voted against Turbeville, in part, because he wasn't responsive to questions about his forced exodus from Merrill Lynch or consent orders signed by his former and current employer linked to him and investigations by the Arkansas Securities Department and Arkansas Insurance Department.
Worst Company Promise
In November, Phoenix Renewable Energy of Hot Springs promised it would soon unveil plans for a wood fuel plant in Camden. But the announcement hasn't appeared. We shouldn't have been surprised. The groundbreaking for a $110 million plant Phoenix held in August 2009 never got off the ground either. Raising money became more difficult after the company was hit with a cease-and-desist order from the Arkansas Securities Department in May. And the company's top officers, CEO Sam Anderson and COO Stephen Walker, both have criminal records too.
Best New Place for Care
In July, the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences opened a $130 million 12-floor expansion of the Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute. The stunning glass building adds 330,000-SF to the Cancer Institute and connects to the existing 11-story 200,000-SF Cancer Institute building.
Worst Sisterly Affection
In April, a jury awarded Debra M. Evans of Little Rock and M. Gail Graves of Conway a $1.9 million verdict against their sister, Vicki A. Stephens of North Little Rock, whom they accused of breach of fiduciary duty, fraud and theft as trustee of a family trust. Stephens subsequently filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization listing $2.9 million in debt, including the judgment owed to her sisters, and $2.6 million in assets. Worst Delay in Justice
Houston resident Jeffrey Scott Rand, formerly of North Little Rock and Hot Springs, was arraigned in U.S. District Court in Hot Springs on March 10, almost exactly two years after a federal grand jury charged him with five counts of securities fraud and 20 counts of mail fraud. The charges are related to the same misrepresentations to investors and misappropriation of their dollars that were alleged by the Arkansas Securities Department in a cease-and-desist order issued against Rand and his Wave Energy Inc. in December 2006. After Texas legal legend Dick DeGuerin withdrew as his lawyer, a public defender was appointed for Rand in November and his trial was scheduled for July 2011.
Best Second Chance
Investors in Clean Technology International Corp. held their first real shareholders meeting earlier this month after state securities regulators succeeded in forcing Darrell Lainhart of Sherwood to turn over real estate, personal property and more than 300 million shares of CTIC stock. Investors whose money supported a lavish lifestyle for Lainhart and his wife can now try to market CTIC's technology: a machine that apparently can produce large quantities of carbon nanospheres.
Best Lease
More than eight years after it was completed in an exercise of irrational optimism by the Arkansas Teacher Retirement System, the Victory Building at 1401 W. Capitol Ave. in Little Rock is finally nearing capacity. The Arkansas State Medical Board recently signed a lease for more than 18,000 SF that brings the occupancy rate of the 282,000-SF building to 98 percent. Irwin Partners represented ATRS as leasing agent, and the Arkansas Building Authority represented the ASMB.
Best Place to Be Hungry
Shackleford Crossings is home two three of the 10 top restaurants in Little Rock during the first nine months of 2010. Those eateries would be Copeland's of New Orleans, which sold more than more than $2.9 million worth of food to rank fifth in the city; Texas Roadhouse, $2.5 million at No. 8; and Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, $2.4 million at No. 9. Oh, and an Arby's will be joining the menu.
Worst Restitution Prediction
When former Little Rock lawyer Gene Cauley admitted stealing $9.3 million from a client trust fund, he thought he'd be able to come up with the restitution before he was sentenced in November 2009. By the time he was sentenced, however, he had only been able to repay $500,000 and thought it would take at least a year to pay the remaining $8.8 million. A year after his sentencing he had made five more installments totaling $63,400.

Got some new tires from 4Bangler. Traded for the skinny boggers. DOT 37s are the biggest we can run in Ultra4 modified, so we decided to go with Goodyear MTRs. I think the plan is to move the 35" short course tires to some H2's and put the MTRs on the beadlocks. The short course tires aren't DOT approved so we can only run them in TREC races, but not in Ultra 4 races in the Modified class.
We are heading up to St Helen this weekend on our old tires to shake down the new axle and hopefully get some video rolling through some whoops and doing minor shock adjustments. (no valving changes, just preload and dual rate slider adjustment). Probably play around on the rocks a bit too.
Tick list is getting shorter for the next race, still knocking out a few safety items from going through tech at the first race. A few wiring clean up items like the horn and brake lights/amber race light. We are looking at going to a remote gas fill setup as well as moving to internal fuel pump and regulator.
Also working with TJontherox to get some better numbering on the car before the race.
Next race is
on June 30th.

College Hockey:Nebraska-Omaha to host North Dakota outdoors in 2013
In an official announcement made Tuesday, Nebraska-Omaha will host North Dakota on Feb. 9, 2013 in an outdoor game at TD Ameritrade Park in Omaha.

"Our team and fans are looking forward to the opportunity to be part of an outdoor game that is sure to bring national attention to college hockey."
Tickets for the two games will go on sale Oct. 1, 2012, and prices will start at $30. One ticket will cover both games.
