Did you know you could prevent the financial consequences of a crash with a driver who has no auto insurance, or not enough insurance, to cover your damages? Orange County drivers must take out a mandatory minimum level of auto insurance, and they may add additional coverage for uninsured and underinsured liability. Although California law requires all motorists to carry auto insurance, many drivers have only the minimum amount of insurance while others choose to drive without any liability protection.
If you are in an accident that resulted from the negligence of another party, his or her insurance might cover your damages even if that person has no money. Similarly, if you are at fault, your insurance may cover the costs of any injured victims.
What are the benefits of uninsured and underinsured motorist insurance coverage?
One of the main reasons to carry insurance is to have the ability to recover financial losses such as medical expenses, lost income and emotional damages like pain and suffering. Uninsured motorist insurance can come into play in one of the following scenarios:
- Uninsured: If an uninsured motorist caused an accident that left you or your passengers with injuries, your UMI might kick in to cover damages.
- Underinsured: If the at-fault driver has insufficient insurance to cover your losses, your UMI may cover the shortfall.
- Hit-and-run: If you are unable to identify a driver after a hit-and-run accident, it does not mean you have to carry the costs. You can file a claim under your UMI liability coverage.
Can you sue the other driver?
If another driver caused your injuries and he or she does not have insurance coverage, you could file a personal injury lawsuit in a civil court. However, drivers without insurance may also be without the means to pay any monetary judgments the court may order. The remedy might be to file a UMI claim with your insurance company, keeping in mind that there will likely be time limits. For that reason, it might be best to file insurance claims as soon as possible after an accident.
The claims process
The process that you will need to follow could be complicated. Although every claim is unique, there will be deadlines to meet and understanding the level of coverage for which you qualify could be challenging. Furthermore, the insurance providers may push you to sign a settlement agreement before you are ready. However, you may seek legal counsel to guide and support you throughout the claims process to protect your rights and work toward receiving the maximum available benefits to which you are entitled.

How to use Wi-Fi in the safest way?
Public Wi-Fi networks, like the ones you can use in coffee shops or hotels, are not nearly as safe as you think. Even if you need to introduce a password, you're sharing a network with lots of other people, which means your personal data can be at risk.
Just because most wireless routers have a firewall to protect you from the internet doesn't mean you're protected from others connected to the same network. It's bizarrely easy to steal someone's username and password, or see what they're doing just by being on the same network. Try to avoid this situation.
We're going to demonstrate you which settings are the most significant ones, as well as how to automatically alternate your settings to the best level of security every time you connect to a public network.
Let's take a look at what settings can keep you safe. Make sure you think about these anytime you're on public Wi-Fi, whether it's password protected or not. If other people – you don't know- can be on the same network, it means you need to protect yourself.
1. Switch off the 'sharing' option
When you're at home, you are able to share files, printers, or even allow remote login from other computers on your network. Nevertheless, when you're on a public network, you'll want to avoid this. Just turn these things off, as anyone can access them. You don't need to be an expert or a hacker to be able to see your personal data.
In Windows:
Open your Control Panel – browse to Network and Internet – Network and Sharing center. Then choose Change Advanced Sharing Settings. Once here, you should definitely switch off file and printer sharing, and you may as well turn off network discovery and Public folder sharing.
Take into account that some of this is automatically done by Windows if you specify the new network you are using as public.
In OS X:
Go to System Preferences – Sharing – make sure all the boxes are unchecked.
Another good idea is to switch off Network Discovery, which you can find in the same location. This will stop others from even seeing your machine on the network, meaning you're less likely to be targeted. On Windows, it's just another check box under advanced sharing settings. On OS X, it will be called "stealth mode" and will be under your firewall's advanced settings.
2. Enable your firewall
Most OS machines nowadays have at least a basic firewall, so it's a simple step to keeping unwanted local users from looking into your computer. You may already have a firewall, but just to be sure, go into your security settings (in Windows under Control Panel > System and Security > Windows Firewall; and on a Mac under System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Firewall) and make sure your firewall is switched on.
3. Whenever possible use HTTPS and SSL
Regular web site connections over HTTP give and take lots of plain text over the wireless network you're connected to. But someone with the right skills and bad intentions will be able to sniff out that traffic very easily. Using HTTPS (for visiting web sites) or enabling SSL (when using applications that access the internet, such as an email client) encodes the exchanged data and keeps it away from prying eyes. Lots of sites—including Facebook, Gmail, and others—will use it already automatically.
Best advice: if you should enter a website with very sensitive data, like banking or credit card info, it might be better to wait until you're at home. There's no reason to risk more than you have to.
4. Think about using a virtual private network
Unfortunately, not all sites offer SSL encryption. Other search engines and email providers may still be exposed to people watching your activity, so if you use one of these sites frequently, you may want to try using a VPN (virtual private network). These services let you route all your activity through an isolated safe, private network, and so giving you the security of a secure network even though you're on a public one.
You have a lot of choices, but we recommend CyberGhost as a very simple, free option. Install it on your computer, turn it on whenever you're on a public network and you'll be much safer than without it.
5. Switch off Wi-Fi when you aren't using it
If you want to be sure about your security and you're not actively using the internet, just switch off your Wi-Fi. This is really easy in both Windows and OS X. In Windows, you just right-click on the wireless icon in the taskbar to switch it off. On a Mac device, just click the Wi-Fi icon in the menu bar and select the switch off AirPort option. Because at the end, the longer you stay connected, the longer people have to notice you're there and start snooping around.

As I have previously stated, Royce is always looking for love. "What?" Charlie's dad exclaimed after reading this statement on my blog. "I thought Royce was neutered!" Let me be perfectly clear: that is not the kind of love that I speak of. As heavy as it weighs against my conscience, in my attempt to be what modern society calls "a responsible pet owner," I long ago took Royce to the vet and had all of his dangling opportunities for that kind of love taken from him.
The same holds true for all the modern-day Kracker Cats.
No, I speak of the kind of love here seen above. Whenever Charlie shows up, Royce knows that he will be bathed in such love, because that is how Charlie is.
On a recent night as I still struggled to bring this blog up-to-date on my most recent hospital adventure. Tryskuit and Charlie came by to visit. We decided to take a walk. "Look! Royce is trying to follow again!" Tryskuit blurted out when we had gone but a short distance beyond our driveway.
I turned around and sure enough - there he was. Sometimes, to search for love means that you just want to be part of the gang - to stroll down the street with them, just because that is the natural thing for creatures that love each other to do.
Royce sees that we have stopped for him. His tail rises high.
Royce draws nearer. Poor guy! He really believes that this time, he will find love in the middle of the gang.
Charlie carries Royce back to the house.
Me in action. As I was taking the above series of pictures, Charlie took one of me that shows one of the techniques that I have employed to take photographs since my accident. You can see that my slinged, broken, repaired, partly-artificial right shoulder is hidden beneath a shirt that would otherwise be too big for me.
My Canon 1Ds Mark III is a most excellent, 22 megapixel, pro camera, but it is also big, heavy and bulky. When we walk, Tryskuit serves as my camera bearer. Even if I carry it on my left shouder, it strains the right. So, if I walk very far, someone must carry it for me, or I must leave it at home.
Once I spot a picture, it is all but impossible for me to hold this heavy camera steady with just my left hand.
Here, Tryskuit serves as my "living tripod." As I frame and focus, she grips the bottom of the lens to steady the camera. When the moment is right, I snap the shutter.
Tomorrow, readers will see that I now have another way to do things.

Five Questions to Find the Right DJ For You
Author: Dave Shaw Date: August 12, 2014
In the last decade, professional and pro-sumer audio equipment has become more affordable, more reliable, and more user-friendly, allowing entrepreneurs to enter the mobile event marketplace with lower initial investment capital. The industry is teeming with amazing, inventive, and fun entertainment companies, and finding the "right one" for your event can be a challenge.
But what makes a company the "right one" for your event? To make the search process easier, we've broken down what we believe to be five essential questions to keep in mind when considering a service.
1. Do I feel more or less stressed after the first meeting?
Many companies will prefer to schedule an appointment rather than giving a quote over the phone, and that's OK. The first appointment is called the consultation. The professional uses this scheduled time to explain his or her services face-to-face while getting a sense of your requirements for the event.
You shouldn't be pressured to sign a contract or pay for anything at your first meeting. You can expect to be presented with some initial information, a quote, or a proposal at the end of the consultation. This is a way of saying, "it's OK for you to think it over," and sets the stage for a less-stressful future experience.
2. Do they have referrals?
If a person walked into a tattoo parlor with the intention of getting a tattoo, it seems natural that the person will first look through the tattoo artist's portfolio before getting work done. A tattoo is a permanent feature on your body just like an event is a permanent feature in time, and the entertainer that you book could determine how you and your guests look back on those moments. Like the tattoo artist, the entertainment professional should be able to supply pictures and video, reviews, and other forms of testimonial.
3. Are they willing to work within my vision?
Customer service is absolutely essential for any business, and an entertainment company should be able to accommodate any special requests you may have. In the past, it used to be all about the packages. But in recent years we have seen a trend away from the "package" paradigm and more emphasis on a la carte or itemized services, giving the customer a greater overall bang for their buck.
4. Do they have liability insurance?
Most venues today will not accept an entertainment company that does not have a liability insurance policy. The insurance policy is there to protect the venue, vendor, your guests, and mostly importantly you from any costs incurred from any unlikely property damage or bodily harm resulting in transportation or use of the equipment at the event. However unlikely, accidents can and do happen - as much as we hate to admit it. The standard insurance policy covers up to one million dollars, so make sure your vendor has a strong policy that can meet or exceed that number.
5. Is this all they do for a living, or is it a hobby or a side job?
A full-time entertainer is more desirable because they are - generally - much more committed to providing a quality service. A failure of service might be disastrous to a full-time professional, where a part-time professional might consider a failure to be merely a setback as they fall back on their primary source of income. Full-time entertainers and businesses are often more seasoned, have a polished presentation, and have greater reliability.

The benefit here is that you don't have to risk buying up stock in a product and losing money if it doesn't sell. The entry barrier is lower and you don't have to invest nearly as much to get started.
Many small businesses don't have room in their budget for a full-time IT employee, so when their systems go on the fritz, they'll usually call a computer-savvy friend or family member. If you have experience working on computers and networks, you can eliminate their need to call in a favor and offer immediate remote technical assistance.
Sammi Caramela has always loved words. When she isn't working as a Purch B2B staff writer, she's writing (and furiously editing) her first novel, reading a YA book with a third cup of coffee, or attending local pop-punk concerts. The only time Sammi doesn't play it safe is when she's writing. Reach her by email, or check out her blog at sammisays.org.
Do you constantly come up with witty one-liners? Do you dream of the days of Mad Men-style advertising? If you've got some branding chops or just come up with imaginative copy, there are lots of opportunities to make money online through company naming and slogan contests. If you think you have a knack for names check out namingforce.com and squadhelp.com. If you dream of coming up with witty copy, try coming up with company slogans on Slogan Slingers and Get a Slogan.
Better yet, you can even upload your own book to one of the world's largest book sellers: Amazon. With Amazon self-publishing, you set the price, retain the rights to your book, and get access to Amazon's massive audience. For every sale, you keep 70% with Amazon taking the remainder as a fee. If you want to get started, check out Leslie Samuel's great guide to selling eBooks online or follow Tara Gentile on CreativeLive as she shows you how to use your existing body of work to write an eBook within the next week. Who knows, you might just write one of the best business books of this year!
If you have an interest or skill in web development, there is a big demand for designers to build winning sites for businesses or organizations. Sites like eLance.com are a good place to start to find clients and build your portfolio.
Every year, hundreds of millions of documents are notarized in the United States: wills, mortgages, citizenship forms, handgun applications. While for decades, this has all been done in person, there is a budding crop of sites that allow notaries to take their services online. If you're already a notary, you can sell your services online. Or, if you want to get started, check out the National Notary's checklist for becoming a certified notary.
Sign up for a reputable affiliate network: Aside from Amazon, there are dozens of large reputable affiliate networks, such as Share-A-Sale, Clickbank, and Skimlinks, that specialize in connecting you with merchants who are looking for affiliates to sell their products. They charge relatively low commission fees for the privilege of connecting you with merchants, and the merchants on these sites tend to offer much higher commission percentages or set dollar amount payouts.
Building a YouTube channel is a lot like starting a blog or website, except that you're working in video—not writing. The first step is to choose what kind of videos you're going to create. Most successful YouTube channels fall under one of two categories:
My next self-funded business hit $160,000 in revenue in its first year alone. After that first taste of self-made success, I've gone on to sign consulting contracts worth tens of thousands of dollars with startups like LinkedIn and Google, launch profitable online courses, and build a following of hundreds of thousands for this blog and my podcast series.
In a nutshell, affiliate marketing is selling someone else's product by referring customers to their online store. If you can create content (on a blog) or a resource so valuable to the people looking for a certain product and then send them to where they can actually buy it, you'll receive a predetermined percentage of each sale.
Build up a following on your Instagram account and you could quickly be making extra money online. Major brands, gear companies, and even startups are willing to shell out $500-$5,000+ per post to get in front of your audience. While it's getting harder and harder to build a massive Instagram audience, if you already have a solid niche and are posting quality content regularly, with a few small tweaks you can make yourself an influencer. Check out this awesome article from Shopify on how to build and grow your Instagram following to get started.
Next, you'll want to pick a WordPress theme from somewhere like ThemeForest, Elegant Themes or OptimizePress. This is the barebones design of your site, which you can then customize with your own branding, copy, and images. That being said, you don't want to cheap out. It costs less than $100 to buy a theme that will make your website look professional (and you can upgrade to a completely custom design once you get the business going).
My favorite online business idea is a service that solves a problem, gives back to the environment, and can financially assist any charity across the U.S. I started My Kid's Threads, an online consignment service that features amazing high-end designer children's clothing for purchase or consignment, after working 15 years in eCommerce for Fortune 500 companies. Busy families love the convenience of shopping online, saving money, and giving back to charities or earning some cash for their kids' outgrown clothing.
Now the cost of this one might vary depending on the library near you, but in my experience, a membership to your local library is always one of the best investments you can make. And most of the time, they are free.
Agree with you these are some great places to shop on. Can you please share some ideas about prices and their shipping details. However i have shopped from https://www.brandfrys.com/ 3 to 4 times. Much satisfied from their service.
With North Pole Notes, subscribers sign up to send personalized and unique letters as Santa Claus, not just in the holiday season, but ALL year. Perfect for parents, Godparents, Grandparents, Aunts, and Uncles, or just about any gift giver!
CoverWallet's platform lets you see average pricing, notifies you when you need to renew a policy or certificate, and lets you see all key policy info online – meaning no delays when you're trying to close a new job.
For one, you'll want to have a high level of domain experience within the industry your startup is going to operate. This means a deep understanding of your customers, the issues they face, and an idea of potential solutions they'll be willing to pay for. This is the minimum you need to get started.
Next, you need to include a list of your credentials. However, don't just give point after point of accomplishments; be sure to state exactly how each of your credentials is going to translate into a benefit for your clients. Don't make the critical mistake of assuming that visitors to your site can make this leap on their own. Clearly spell out the benefits you offer in your sales copy. For example, if you're a real estate agent with certification in housing inspection, you shouldn't just tell your visitors "I'm a certified housing inspector." Instead you should say, "Not only can I find the best home in the best location for you and your family, but as a certified housing inspector, I can give you an accurate assessment of the home's structural soundness and let you know about any potential problems to make sure you avoid getting stuck with costly repairs in the years to come!" Doesn't that sound better than "I'm a certified housing inspector"? Make the benefit obvious!
Again, CodeAcademy will give you good grounding in coding languages. Expect to train for 12 months before being able to build apps that are going to achieve lots of sales. There are a few options when it comes to building apps…
In 2017, there were almost 90 million pet dogs in the US. Which has opened up a huge opportunity to make money online as a dog watcher or sitter. Specialized sites like Rover or Care.com connect pet owners with pet walkers, sitters, and boarding houses to help look after their best friends when they're at work or on a trip. If you're an animal lover, you can make extra money and get to spend some quality time with a furry friend.
It can take time to build up your personal freelance business. Yet, there is more demand than ever for freelancers. So, if you want to kick start making money online through freelancing you can join one of the top freelance networks, such as UpWork, Fiverr, Guru, Freelancer.com, or PeoplePerHour. Sign up, build your profile, upload some samples of your work and start making extra money by doing small freelance jobs.
When you sell a service, you are the product, whether you're a real estate agent, doctor, lawyer, bed & breakfast owner, auto-mechanic, caterer, hair stylist, fitness trainer, accountant, investment advisor, childcare provider, housekeeper, dog walker, landscaper, whatever.
Once you've established yourself in any of the numerous freelance verticals online, spending your time focusing just on doing inside sales (booking freelance contracts with high-value clients) and then subcontracting your work out to other freelancers can be a great way to make money online.
It's still not easy by any means. It requires hard work, and you need to stand out amongst the hundreds of thousands of ecommerce websites and online stores. But by filling a unique niche and executing the right marketing techniques, you can make your ecommerce store a profitable success.
The great thing is that creating your own professional-looking social media is incredibly easy with a tool like Canva, which you can use by signing up for free. Even with their free version, you have access to thousands of templates and images.
If you're looking to build a true online business, or start a side business idea that has the potential to truly change your life (and you're not afraid of investing months & years of work into the business), this where you should start.
It's also one of the quickest ways you can get set up and start generating revenue. All you really need is an account with one of the online coaching communities I mentioned above and expertise to share.
With the e-commerce route, in many markets, you'll be competing against old-school business people who may or may not have any internet marketing experience. Many of them have glitchy, out-of-date websites, which leaves you a lot of room for improvement, and you can capitalize on their shortcomings.
If you love to travel and find yourself randomly searching for airfare sales or browsing Lonely Planet, why not carve out a niche for yourself as a private travel agent? My friend, Mark Jackson did just that, making extra money online with his travel consulting side business. Start with word of mouth recommendations from friends who know they can count on you for the cheapest flights, and then move on and create a Facebook or LinkedIn group to invite people who want to stay on top of the latest deals. Eventually you could spin this into a full-time consultancy teaching people how to make their dream trip a reality.
While there are certainly expensive services out there that you can use to create your ebook, you can actually do it yourself for free with tools like Google Docs, Microsoft Powerpoint, and Canva. Armed with nothing but these tools, you can easily create a well-designed eBook lead magnet.
Start by taking other courses you're interested in: Not only is this important competitor and opportunity analysis, but it also gives you an idea of how a course could or should look and feel. What's the pacing like? Is it via email, video, in-person chats? Once you understand how you want your course to look, it's time to decide what it should include. Those same courses are a great starting place. How can you make your course better or more interesting? Do you have experience others don't?
A lead magnet is basically a piece of content that you give away for for free to potential customers, in order to capture their attention and convince them to hand over their contact information. Most people aren't going to sign up to your mailing list just for the sake of it, so a lead magnet allows you to ask for something in exchange for something your audience finds valuable.
When you're selling a service, however, you are the product. So establishing your credibility–essentially establishing your value–is critical to closing the sale. You need to not only establish the benefits of the service you're offering but also establish the value of you providing this service.
Please note that some of the links below are affiliate links and at no additional cost to you, I will earn a commission. Know that I only recommend products, tools and learning resources I've personally used and believe are genuinely helpful, not because of the small commissions I make if you decide to purchase them. Most of all, I would never advocate for buying something that you can't afford or that you're not yet ready to implement.
Depending on what hosting service you decide to go with, the initial cost can potentially be as low as $5 a month. On average though, purchasing a single domain name and setting up a basic wordpress site shouldn't cost you more than $10, leaving you with just enough to invest into your site's design.

You don't need to invest in expensive video equipment. Just learn how to use your smartphone's video capability to upload entertaining or informative videos, and opt to have ads play before your videos to get a bit of cash for each video view. YouTube star PewDiePie earned a total of $7.4 million in revenue, according to multiple media reports.
The website Fiverr promotes members' talent in multiple disciplines and connects them to people looking to pay for those skills. For example, if you're a digital photo editing guru, you might find freelance projects you can complete for compensation.
Every day, couples in love get engaged. And every day, couples who have fallen out of love separate or break an engagement. When the latter happened to Josh Opperman, his fiancee was kind enough to return the engagement ring, and he didn't know what to do with it. Since the wholesale markup on engagement rings is insanely high, he would have taken a huge loss in returning it. So instead, he started his business, I Do Now I Don't, an online marketplace for unwanted engagement rings. Customers can buy rings at prices far cheaper than you'd find at a traditional store, and you can sell at rates that are better than you'd get if you tried to return the ring. Business started booming, and now you can buy and sell other jewelry items there too.
But just as someone selling a product over the web needs to make a seamless transition between their sales copy and their order form, you need to make a seamless transition between your sales copy and the point of contact.

Press Release
EMC Reduces Costs And Enhances Client Service For National Mortgage Services Firm
LERETA Deploys Networked Information Storage and Software to Provide Access to Real-time Loan Processing Data
LERETA Corporation, a nationwide provider of real estate tax and flood hazard certification services to mortgage, insurance and other real estate service providers, has turned to EMC Corporation for management and storage of its mission-critical information. The national mortgage services firm has deployed EMC's open networked information storage and suite of management software to reduce information technology costs, increase the value of its business information and deliver greater information access to its rapidly growing LERETA customer base.
Alan Brauer, LERETA's Chief Information Officer said, "Responding to the information needs of customers is at the core of everything we do. EMC is best positioned to solve the complex information management problems that ensure the success of our business. In EMC, we found a storage partner with the single mission of managing and protecting our company's information and the systems, software and network offerings to do it. Being able to quadruple our EMC storage without having to bring in another system administrator makes us more flexible in delivering new services to clients. When you add up these factors, the cost of managing EMC storage is significantly less than what would have been required had we gone with another vendor."
"Other storage systems we considered offered disk systems with limited software functionality, little support and virtually no storage networking strategy," continued Brauer. "EMC went far beyond what others had to offer in terms of comprehensive software and support -- key to the success of any storage initiative. EMC's proven networked information storage solutions have allowed us to easily scale while continuing to improve service to our customers."
LERETA, based in Covina, Calif., has consolidated information from its mainframe, UNIX and Windows NT environments with an EMC information infrastructure or E-Infostructure. EMC competed against IBM's "Shark" and Hitachi's "Lightning" systems for LERETA's networked storage infrastructure business.
EMC's Professional Services consultants worked with LERETA to design and implement its EMC Enterprise Storage Area Network (ESN) using EMC Symmetrix Enterprise Storage systems, EMC Connectrix Fibre-Channel switches and EMC information management software including EMC TimeFinder, EMC PowerPath and EMC ControlCenter.
"EMC's wide range of rich software addresses every need across our storage infrastructure," commented Brauer. "EMC's networked storage brings information residing in our different operating environments together and allows us to manage that data from a central point of control. Suddenly, we can move data around more rapidly and efficiently than ever before and make a direct impact on our business. For example, the tightly integrated data access EMC's software provides has enabled us to speed processing of flood certifications -- an improvement that offers significant value to our clients."
David Donatelli, EMC's Senior Vice President of Corporate Marketing and New Business Development, said, "Decisions like LERETA's are being made every day by world-class organizations dedicated to the belief that information management can be a competitive weapon. More now than ever, EMC's proven technologies and cost of ownership advantages bring customers the highest possible return on their information."

The Hill reports that House Republicans are once again arguing to replace dollar bills with dollar coins:
Rep. David Schweikert (Ariz.) and two other House Republicans — including supercommittee co-chairman Jeb Hensarling (Texas) — introduced legislation last week aimed at retiring the paper dollar. Schweikert said his bill would save billions of dollars over the next few decades by transitioning to a dollar coin in four years, or as soon as $600 million worth of dollar coins are in circulation.
Schweikert said 3 billion paper dollars are shredded every year, and the constant need to destroy these dollars and create new ones is a cost the government can no longer bear. He said metal coins would last longer and therefore save money.
To be sure, in the context of the federal budget, switching to dollar coins would represent a small savings, but it's a sensible proposal for everyone other than Senators who represent paper interests in Massachusetts.
The benefits are real.
- The dollar coin would represent a real savings for both the government and the private sector, as 47 other nations have discovered.
- Dollar coins cause only 1/3 the greenhouse gas emissions of paper bills.
- Dollar bills are unimaginably filthy and are capable of spreading disease.
Let's go ahead and save a few hundred million dollars…as long as they are coins.

Gina Valentina is in her room lying down on her bed studying. She's got jean shorts on that reveal her ass cheeks perfectly. When her cell phone vibrates, she's thankful for the distraction. What she didn't expect is a smoking hot pic from Karlee Grey wearing dark blue lingerie. She starts playing with herself almost immediately. What she doesn't realize is while she's playing with herself with ¬phone in hand, her finger slipped and accidentally liked the picture. Fuck fuck fuck! What is Gina gonna do? It was an accident but she can't take it back and who knows what Karlee is gonna think. When Karlee sees the like, she calls Gina immediately. Gina is fucked now. Or is she? When Karlee invites her over for a study date, she has no idea that Karlee is into her. Gina tells her she'll be right over and hangs up the phone. A little later at Karlee's place, the girls are on the couch just about ready to hit the books. But Karlee has other plans: she starts flirting with Gina. She asks her if she likes her bra while she runs her fingers over her skin. It's the same bra she was posing within the picture! Gina stops her and tells her she knows what's going on here. Karlee plays innocent but Gina knows she invited her over 'cuz she liked her picture. She tells her it was an accident and she's not some weirdo, she just really likes hot girls in lingerie. Karlee tells her that if she wanted to see her in lingerie, all she had to do was ask. When she takes off her top, it looks like the girls won't be getting any studying done today!

How would you go about publishing a website to sell handcrafted items or grow your business? For an e-commerce site, you will need to set up a shopping cart system. Some hosting services will give you this service, but not every one of them will. This article can help you to identify the right web page hosting service for your online endeavors.
Check your hosting site to determine what type of sites they offer. Some free sites only offer pages that are static, which won't allow you to write any of your own scripts. If the nature of your website requires dynamic scripting capabilities, it may be in your best interest to opt for hosting on a paid server.
A lot of web hosts will offer a few add-ons that go with what their service, but these features vary from host to host. When comparing hosts, be sure you are including the features that you need. You might like the price of one host, but then discover that the features you need require further funds to acquire.
Frequent Outages
Select a web host that has infrequent outages. If a company faces frequent outages and is constantly making excuses, it is a red flag that they are unreliable, or they would have made plans to remedy the situation. Frequent outages signify an unprofessional business. Don't make commitments to these type of companies.
When considering a prospective hosting service, ask multiple questions about the quality of security, and privacy measures. Websites are constantly being hacked these days, and countless potential threats exist. Ensure that your chosen web page hosting service has security measures that can handle all kinds of attacks or threats to the integrity of your web site. Find out what could happen to your site if a virus or hacker targets the hosting service.
Before you commit to a hosting service, you should first create a detailed list of your wants and needs. Write down all your wants and needs, and match potential web host to those needs. This way, your decision won't mistakenly be made based only on price; you will know that all your needs are being met.
Choose monthly payments instead of one-time lump sums when negotiating with a web host. You have no way of knowing what your needs will be a year from now. If your business grows too big for the host or your business closes, you may lose the money you paid, unless the host states otherwise.
These tips should help you get started when looking for a web page hosting service. You need to evaluate the needs of your website and find the host that offers the right mix of features. Do not pay for the features that you are not going to need, or miss out on features that you do need to save money.

We designed the network at this chic new restaurant.
For this vibrant and bustling restaurant, the phone barely stops. Our IT solution included a phone system for receiving bookings, p.cs for behind the scenes and Wi-Fi for the customers. The volume of calls and internet usage required a dedicated leased broadband line into the restaurant. We advised on the best type of line for their usage and subsequently designed the network so that the customers have Wi-Fi access and the office computers benefit from being hard wired in for a consistent connection. We designed and installed a multiple phone telephone system that connects front of house, the kitchens and office area. We make monthly onsite visits to ensure the network is running smoothly. Due to the restaurant opening hours, we provide remote support if needed, daytime and evenings, seven days a week.

Street Address:
The game started with the Tigers' opponent hitting two contested 3-pointers, the Tigers taking and missing a couple of ill-advised jump shots, and UCF running out on two fastbreaks.
Just like that, only two minutes and two seconds into the proceedings, the University of Memphis was losing 10-0. It happened so fast the crowd at FedExForum didn't even have time for much of a reaction.
By halftime, despite coach Tubby Smith having to sit down his best player, Dedric Lawson, with two fouls at the 7:06 mark and Memphis trailing by seven points, the Tigers had rallied for a 33-30 lead. Ultimately, they would hang on for a 70-65 victory Sunday despite being clobbered on the boards by the second-best rebounding team in the country and the presence of 7-foot-6 center Tacko Fall.
"I didn't jump," said 6-foot-8 Tigers forward Jimario Rivers, when asked about the jump ball to start the game. "I can't see no point in jumping."
By game's end, Fall had scored 15 points and grabbed 13 rebounds and the Knights out-rebounded Memphis 41-28. But the Tigers also had converted 16 UCF turnovers into 22 points and had an uncharacteristically accurate day at the free throw line: 18 of 23 for 78.3 percent.
But most of all, the Tigers (15-5, 5-2 in the American Athletic Conference) had flexed their toughness, their moxie and their ability to have a short memory when it served them best.
"I don't even remember we was down 10-0," said forward K.J. Lawson, who led Memphis 16 points and eight rebounds and also chipped in four assists.
"We never gave up, stayed together," said Rivers, who finished with 12 points blocked two shots.
Guard Markel Crawford played all 40 minutes, scoring 12 points with five rebounds, and two steals. Asked about the team's resiliency, he answered with what sounded almost like a mantra:
"Keep fighting," he said. "Make stops, get a score, makes stops, get a score."
And so it went down the stretch. UCF (14-5, 5-2 in the AAC) rallied from a 56-49 deficit to tie the score at 59-59 on a pair of free throws by A.J. Davis with 4:03 to play. Memphis went up 68-62 with 1:16 to play after K.J. Lawson hit two free throws, but guard Tank Efianayi made a triple with 1:04 left in the game to cut the gap to 68-65.
UCF had possession with 18 seconds remaining when coach Johnny Dawkins called timeout. Smith, after seeing the alignment, called a timeout of his own. When play resumed, the Tigers denied the Knights a clean look from deep or a quick route to the basket. Eleven seconds ran off the clock before guard B.J. Taylor (16 points) forced a two-point attempt running toward the basket and missed.
K.J. Lawson got the rebound, was fouled, and hit two more free throws to complete the scoring.
"I was impressed with our kids today," Smith said. "A lot of guts. You have to overachieve if you're smaller and don't have the depth."

A municipal ordinance making it a criminal offense to possess an "opened container full or partially full of any alcoholic beverages, while on, in or upon any public way" is not unconstitutionally vague as applied to the conduct of an intoxicated person driving a motor vehicle with a half-empty, capped bottle of liqueur in an insulated bag between the front seats of the vehicle [513-516], nor was the ordinance overbroad [516].
COMPLAINT received and sworn to in the Fitchburg Division of the District Court Department on September 20, 1994.
A motion to dismiss was heard by Andre A. Gelinas, J. and the case was heard by Patrick A. Fox, J.
John A. Bosk for the defendant.
Kennera M. McSherry, Assistant District Attorney, for the Commonwealth.
GREENBERG, J. Bernadette Casey, the defendant, concedes that, before a Fitchburg police officer found her seated inside her car parked across from city hall, she had been driving under the influence of intoxicating liquor. The question she raises on appeal is whether she could properly be prosecuted for violation of s. 56-1 of the Fitchburg General Ordinances, making it a criminal offense to possess an "opened container full or partially full of [an] alcoholic beverage ...." Casey was convicted of violating that ordinance. Prior to trial, the defendant moved for dismissal of the complaint "[o]n constitutional grounds...." A District Court judge denied the motion and, after a jury-waived trial before a different judge, the defendant was found guilty.
Page 513
At issue is not whether s. 56-1 is facially unconstitutional -- that challenge was rejected in Commonwealth v. Lammi, 386 Mass. 299 (1982) [Note 1] -- but whether the ordinance is unconstitutionally vague as applied to the defendant's conduct. She contends that her motion to dismiss the complaint should have been allowed because the ordinance was not "sufficiently clear to give notice of the conduct that it prohibits," Commonwealth v. Bohmer, 374 Mass. 368 , 371 (1978), and cases cited, or, that it should be declared "overbroad as applied" in this case.
There is agreement concerning the underlying events. Casey drew the attention of an off-duty Fitchburg police officer when she nearly struck the back end of his car as he drove along Main Street. Fortunately she missed causing an accident and pulled into a nearby parking space. Two pedestrians saw her walking around her vehicle as if intoxicated. In fact she was drunk and passed out on the sidewalk. By the time an ambulance crew arrived to assist, she had managed to get back inside her car but appeared "totally incoherent." Just after the crew removed her from the scene and took her to the hospital, another officer, who was sent to inventory the vehicle, found an insulated bag between the front seats. Inside the bag he found ice cubes around a half-empty, capped bottle of "Sambuca" liquor. The officer seized the bottle as part of the inventory, and then called for a tow truck.
The defendant argues that the ordinance is vague as it did not fairly place her on notice that a judge could find the act of placing a capped bottle of liquor, inside a receptacle, between the seats of her car to be criminal. In particular, she
Page 514
contends that the city of Fitchburg intended the ordinance as written, to be enforced against persons who actually engage in public drinking or literally have an open container of alcohol on their persons while in or on a public way.
Determining whether a statute or ordinance survives a vagueness challenge involves the application of settled principles. See Commonwealth v. Benoit, 26 Mass. App. Ct. 641 , 646 (1988). A statute defining a criminal offense violates due process when the conduct prohibited or commanded is expressed in terms "so vague that [persons] of common intelligence must necessarily guess at its meaning and differ as to its application...." Connally v. General Constr. Co., 269 U.S. 385, 391 (1926). See also Commonwealth v. Walter, 388 Mass. 460 , 465 (1983). On the other hand, "the Constitution does not require impossible standards, that [are violated by] mere difficulty in determining whether certain marginal offences are within the meaning of the language under attack as vague ...." Commonwealth v. Jarrett, 359 Mass. 491 , 496 (1971). Another principle involved in the determination as to whether a statute survives a vagueness challenge allows a court to go beyond the words of the statute. "A sufficiently definite warning may be achieved by judicial construction, common law meaning, or the statutory history of particular terms." Commonwealth v. Gallant, 373 Mass. 577 , 581 (1977). Courts have upheld vagueness challenges against statutes susceptible to varying interpretations depending upon the individual, or which vest total discretion in the hands of the police. See Kolender v. Lawson, 461 U.S. 352, 358-361 (1983) (statute requiring individual to provide "credible and reliable" identification when requested by police officer rests excessive discretion in hands of police to determine whether individual has complied); Commonwealth v. Carpenter, 325 Mass. 519 , 520 (1950) (statute directing that "[n]o person shall, in a street . . . unreasonably saunter or loiter for more than seven minutes after being directed by a police officer to move on" forced both people and law enforcement officers to guess at meaning of "unreasonable"); Commonwealth v. Stark, 365 Mass. 195 (1974) (statute making it criminal to "treat contemptuously" the flag of the United States); Commonwealth v. Sefranka, 382 Mass. 108 (1980) (prohibition against "lewd, wanton and lascivious" speech or behavior meaningless without attendant definitions of specific conduct
Page 515
proscribed); American Dog Owners Assn., Inc. v. Lynn, 404 Mass. 73 (1989) (ordinance restricting ownership of certain breed of dog vague because it left law enforcement officials without ascertainable standards by which to enforce it). These standards apply equally to municipal ordinances. Commonwealth v. Williams, 395 Mass. 302 , 303-304 (1985).
While the ordinance in the case at bar could have been drafted with greater precision to prohibit possession of an opened container with ready availability to consume, such conduct may be fairly understood. [Note 2] If the meaning of a statute can be ascertained by "reference to similar or related statutes," it is not vague. Commonwealth v. Arthur, 420 Mass. 535 , 539 (1995). Indeed, G. L. c. 90, s. 241, inserted by St. 1982, C.373, s. 10, proscribes operation of a motor vehicle on a public way "while drinking from an 'open' container of any alcoholic beverage." We believe persons of "common intelligence" would understand that the ordinance subjects them to prosecution if they operate a motor vehicle and store a half-empty and unsealed bottle of liquor within easy reach. The ordinance was validly applied in this instance because the defendant's conduct was within a prohibited "core of condemned conduct" well understood by the ordinary citizen. [Note 3] See Commonwealth v. Love, 26 Mass. App. Ct. 541 , 545
Page 516
(1988); Commonwealth v. Benoit, 26 Mass. App. Ct. at 646. [Note 4]
The defendant's use of the overbreadth doctrine to assert her rights under the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution and art. 14 of the Massachusetts Declaration of Rights is misplaced. [Note 5] The test is a cognate yet separate analysis from the "vagueness" theory. A statute may be clear and precise but may be overbroad because it prohibits constitutionally protected conduct. Commonwealth v. A Juvenile, 368 Mass. 580 , 586 n.4 (1975). See Smith, Criminal Practice & Procedure s. 6 (2d ed. 1983). Overbreadth challenges are by nature facial challenges. Courts created the overbreadth doctrine to provide a forum for "those who desire to engage in legally protected expression but who may refrain from doing so rather than risk prosecution...." Brockett v. Spokane Arcades, Inc., 472 U.S. 491, 503 (1985). When the language of a statute threatens rights protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, a litigant against whom the statute has been improperly applied may challenge the constitutionality of the statute for the benefit of those whose expression may be chilled. Brockett, 472 U.S. at 503. However, no court, to our knowledge, has declared a statute overbroad on the basis, as argued here, that in applying the law, the police conducted an illegal search and seizure.
Page 517
There was no error in denying the motion to dismiss the complaint.
Judgment affirmed.
[Note 1] The text of the Fitchburg ordinance in the case at bar and the one analyzed in Lammi are virtually the same, although the ordinances are now numbered differently. It reads, in its entirety, as follows:
"s. 56-1. Consumption and possession." "No person shall drink any alcoholic beverage as defined in G. L. c. 138, s. 1, or possess an opened container full or partially full of any alcoholic beverages, while on, in or upon any public way, upon any way to which the public has right of access, in any place to which members of the public have access as invitees or licensees, in any park or playground, conservation area or recreation area or on private land or place without consent of the owner or person in control thereof."
[Note 2] "[E]ven a vague statute may be made constitutionally definite by giving it a reasonable construction." Commonwealth v. Arthur, 420 Mass. 535 , 539 (1995).
[Note 3] Few jurisdictions have had occasion to address vagueness challenges to open container laws. Of those that have, none has ever declared the law vague. In those cases, the particular ordinances were either written with greater exactitude than is the Fitchburg ordinance, or the court construed the statute so as to give it definiteness. See People v. Souza, 15 Cal. App. 4th 1646, 1651 (1993) (statute made it unlawful to "keep in a motor vehicle, when the vehicle is upon any highway, any bottle, can, or other receptacle containing any alcoholic beverage which has been opened, or a seal broken, or the contents of which have been partially removed, unless the container is kept in the trunk of the vehicle, or kept in some other area of the vehicle not normally occupied by the driver or passengers, if the vehicle is not equipped with a trunk. . ); Lyons v. Suttle, 209 Kan. 735 (1972) (defendant arrested while transporting open container in car, pursuant to statute specifically limited to possession of open containers of alcohol in a vehicle); Lake Charles v. Henning, 414 So. 2d 331, 334 (La. 1982) (statute prohibiting "opened container," including specific section defining the term, applied to mere possession within "common meaning and understanding"); People v. Lee, 113 Misc. 2d 977, 979 (N.Y. County Ct. 1982) (where ordinance prohibited possession of "open or unsealed bottle or container of an alcoholic beverage," court rejected vagueness challenge only after construing statute to prohibit "possession with intent to consume, and not mere possession," so as to "add legislatively intended, but absent, language in order to meet the constitutional requirement of definiteness").
[Note 4] Other applications of the ordinance cited by the defendant in her brief do not provide support for her vagueness claim. "The defendant cannot rely on the hypothetical application of [the ordinance] to support her claim ...." Commonwealth v. Walter, 388 Mass. 460 , 465-466 (1983). In an attempt to challenge the ordinance as void on its face, the defendant points to various isolated instances where the ordinance was allegedly misapplied. These arguments are unavailing because "[i]n evaluating a statute which does not implicate First Amendment freedoms it is a well established principle that vagueness challenges must be evaluated in light of the facts of the case at hand." Commonwealth v. Adams, 389 Mass. 265 , 271 (1983). Commonwealth v. O'Connor, 406 Mass. 112 , 121 (1989).
[Note 5] The propriety of the warrantless search of her vehicle that led to the seizure of the bottle of "Sambuca" had been presented earlier as a basis for the defendant's motion to suppress.

My Birthday and Easter
I have a wonderful birthday on April 5. I got lots of great presents and ate at Shorty Small's. Wendy and Gray had come up for the livestock show and sale. They spent two nights with us and left on Saturday. We had a wonderful time. Hopefully, they will get to come back to visit soon.
The semester is winding down and I am glad for that. This has been a particularly rough semester. Hopefully things are going to keep getting better and better. Erynn's graduation is May 14. Alysa is starting a new job in just a week or so. Alysa has also changed her major to midlevel education science and math. I think these changes will be good for her even if she has three years until she graduates now.
I am sharing some pictures of me on my birthday, the girls and me on Easter Sunday and then individual pictures of Erynn, Alysa and me. Enjoy!

Long Time No Post
Above: My parents' mausoleum at the Bright Cemetery in Bonnerdale.
Below: The grave of my Grandpa Alvin (my mother's dad). He died in plane crash.
Below: Four of my Dad's five granddaughters (this count is as of March 2009). Left to right: Erynn, Emma, Lane and Alysa.
Left to Right: Me, Erynn, Wendy, Lane and Alysa...little Emma is in front.
I have fallen way behind in my posting. I have now taken down Erynn's senior proofs because the selections have been made.
Some updates from our house:
We had a nice Christmas that included a visit from our family in Pennsylvania!
Alysa had a really bad car wreck that banged her and her car up. Long story but the wreck was not her fault, the woman who hit her lied and so her car repairs and medical bills came out of our pocket. It has now been nearly three months and she just got her car back and she continues to see the chiropractor.
The ice storm hit us in February and we spent 6 days without electricity! I think this was one of the worst experiences of my life. Between Alysa's car accident and this I was a basket case.
Erynn made a All Region Band and All State band for the third year in a row. We are very proud of her! She graduates May 14.
We made it to spring break and my nephew managed to shoot himself in the leg with a pistol. Scared us half to death! Then my youngest sister, Darrah, who is 15 weeks pregnant, started bleeding and the ER doctor told her there was a tear in the amniotic sac and the baby would probably die. We were all devastated. She spent 3 days on complete bedrest and saw her regular ob doctor. Her regular doctor told her there was not a tear and everything was okay. What a relief!
On the positive side, during spring break I got to visit with my sister, Wendy and her family and little Emma (Darrah's daughter). We went to Hot Springs, Glenwood and Caddo Gap. I also got to have lunch one day and supper the next with my Dad. The girls seemed to enjoy all our travels. I am posting some pictures Erynn took on our trip.
Hopefully, the rest of the semester will have much less drama than the first half!

Erynn's Birthday
So, we had Erynn's 17th birthday. I am posting some pictures from the big day. Erynn received a miniature ASU football helmet and well, she just couldn't rest until she tried in on Baby Kitty. As you can see, he was less than thrilled. Erynn also felt the need to have Suki ride around in her purse. Again, you can see that Suki was less than thrilled!

Week of June 1, 2008
This week, Starr and I, traveled to Camp Couchdale for the FFA State Convention. At the session we attended, I received a State Honorary FFA degree. I was the only woman receiving one and all the other honorees were State Senators, State Representatives or connected with Arkansas Farm Bureau in some way. On the way back home, we stopped by Wendy's house and got to see Wendy, Lane, Darrah, NJ and Emma. I wish Emma wasn't so afraid of me! Maybe one day, I will get to spend more time with her so that she won't be! It is very sad to me that I so rarely get to see my sisters and their children-especially Darrah's girls because I am such a stranger to them.

Giant letters on the entrance sign "The Mudhole" should have clued us in. While we found no mud, the insect life In rare form on a 90 degree, windless day. This 20 space campground is tucked under tall pines between Hwy 2 and the train tracks on the north shore on the Pon D'Oreilles River. Road noise is significant, likely from logging trucks at night. We didn't hear any trains though. Maybe the incessant high-pitched buzz of mosquitoes was enough to cancel it out. The facility has a decent swimming beach, picnic shelter and camping area for bikers. It's clean, well-maintained and has good hot showers (25 cents for 5 min).
Perhaps at other times of the year this would be a viable option. We visited in late July and there were plenty of open spots late in the afternoon. #12 is right by the river, and there's even a small dock and slip for two boats.

THE EQUIFAX DATA BREACH The Facts and What to Do
By Jeff Sipes, Owner, Blue Water Credit
If you have a credit report, there's a good chance that you're one of the 143 million American consumers whose sensitive personal information was exposed in a data breach at Equifax, one of the nation's three major credit reporting agencies.
Here are the facts, according to Equifax:
– The hackers accessed people's names, Social Security numbers, birth dates, addresses and, in some instances, driver's license numbers.
In response, Equifax will provide U.S. consumers a year of free credit file monitoring and identity theft protection. You can get further information on this at https://www.
Consumers have quickly pointed out that Equifax's terms of service include a consumer-unfriendly piece of legalese known as an arbitration clause, which bans parties from joining class action lawsuits. If a court finds that Equifax was negligently lax with cybersecurity, people bound by the terms might be locked out of benefits, unless they file a new suit. Equifax issued a new statement last week further clarifying its stance on the arbitration clause. "To confirm, enrolling in the free credit file monitoring and identity theft protection products that we are offering as part of this cybersecurity incident does not prohibit consumers from taking legal action," Equifax said. The company said it has now removed the arbitration language from the terms of use on its data breach notification site.
There are steps to take to help protect your information from being misused.
1. Visit Equifax's website to see if you were impacted. You also can access frequently asked questions at the site.
2. Check your credit reports from Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion – for free – by visiting www.annualcreditreport.com. Accounts or activity that you don't recognize could indicate identity theft. Visit IdentityTheft.gov to find out what to do.
3. Consider placing a credit freeze on your files. A credit freeze makes it harder for someone to open a new account in your name. Keep in mind that a credit freeze won't prevent a thief from making charges to your existing accounts. If you decide against a credit freeze, consider placing a fraud alert on your files. A fraud alert warns creditors that you may be an identity theft victim and that they should verify that anyone seeking credit in your name really is you.
4. Monitor your existing credit card and bank accounts closely for charges you don't recognize.
5. File your taxes early – as soon as you have the tax information you need, before a scammer can. Tax identity theft happens when someone uses your Social Security number to get a tax refund or a job. Respond right away to letters from the IRS.
While this new Equifax breach may be considered one of the worst abuses of consumer trust in history, it is not the largest data breach ever. In fact, about 500 million had their account information and data stolen when Yahoo was hacked previously. As we've seen, many large institutions and businesses are hacked these days, with cybercrime the fastest growing form of crime in the world. So what makes the Equifax hack so disturbing and even anger inspiring? Five things:Equifax's security should be lock-tight. As one of the three major credit bureaus in the U.S. (along with Experian and TransUnion), Equifax is tasked with protecting the sensitive financial data for nearly every American. To allow a hack of this magnitude is inexcusable, and puts into question the validity, credibility – and even motives of the company and its leadership, as we'll see. Basically, if Equifax (who also sells credit theft protection services!) can be so easily hacked for 147 million consumers, who exactly can we trust?Equifax makes money collecting and selling your data – and it's not voluntary. Equifax is not in existence to perform a public service, nor or they affiliated or even closely regulated by the government. In fact, Equifax – like all of the credit bureaus – is a private entity in existence for one sole purpose: to make money for its shareholders. In fact, the credit giant makes billions in profits by collecting financial and demographic data on American citizens and then selling that information (in the form of credit reports) to banks, lenders, auto dealers, credit card firms, and marketers. But for U.S. consumers, having their data and credit history tracked and recorded by Equifax is not voluntary. Therefore, you are forced to participate and contribute to Equifax's profitable ventures whether you want to or not, and without permission – and that now includes having your data hacked.
They knew about the hack but took weeks to go public This is where Equifax's motives and even integrity seriously come into question. In fact, Equifax reports that knew about the massive data breach as early as July 29 (and who knows if they really found out earlier). However, they didn't announce the hack publically and warned consumers until early September. That's six weeks where hackers had their hands on the personal and sensitive data for 143 million consumers and Equifax customers. Due to the fact that Equifax chose not to tell people that they were hacked, the criminals got a head start of about 1/10th of a year to engage in whatever criminal activity they wished, undeterred and unmitigated. As of yet, Equifax hasn't adequately explained the reason for delaying the disclosure that they were hacked.
It's been revealed that in the time between the data breach was discovered by Equifax (July 29) and the hack was publicly announced (September), at least three high-level Equifax executives sold shares of stock in their own company. In fact, these three executives sold their stock only a couple of days after the breach was discovered internally, but still made $1.8 million from the sales of that stock. The questionable sellers include Equifax's Chief Financial Officer, John Gamble, who dumped 6,500 shares for $145.60 for a profit of $946,400.
Of course, after the data breach was made public, the stock plummeted, and soon sat at $123 a share, down 13% from his sale price and still plummeting. What does the firm say about the shady stock sales? To date, Equifax sticks to the story that those executives "didn't know" about the massive data hack – including the CFO.

Limits sought on what's called 'milk'
By ELIZABETH WEISE
USA Today
Got milk? The National Milk Producers Federation says you don't, not if what you grab from the dairy case today is soy, rice or almond milk.
For the second time in 10 years, the federation has written to the Food and Drug Administration asking that the term "milk" be reserved for cow's milk, although it's OK with also using the word for goat, sheep or water buffalo milk any of the various "mammalian lacteal secretions."
The federation says the FDA should require that plant-based beverages be labeled something else, noting terms such as "drinks," "beverages" or even "imitation milk."
The FDA is "letting the bastardization of dairy terms proliferate," said federation spokesman Christopher Galen. The group has even launched a Facebook page: "They Don't Got Milk."
"We had to do something," Galen said.
With an increase in those who perceive plant-derived products as healthier and a growing Asian population accustomed to soymilk, the market for non-dairy "milk" products as well as non-dairy cheeses, yogurts and ice creams is on the increase.
Over the past 10 years, such drinks have expanded from just soymilk, a millennia-old Asian beverage, to include "milks" from a variety of plants, including hemp and peanuts.
In 1996, the market for soymilk was $124 million. In 2008, it was more than $1 billion, said Nancy Chapman, executive director of the Soyfoods Association of North America.
Sales of cow's milk were about $12.3 billion for 2008, says research firm Symphony IRI Group.
It was the soymilk producers who first went to the FDA, in 1996, to ask that soymilk be allowed as a "common and usual name" for their product.
The FDA never responded.
The National Milk Producers group filed its first protest letter about the term "soymilk" in 2000 but received no answer, Galen said. In a subsequent letter to the FDA, the Soyfoods Association argued that as long as the word "milk" was qualified by "soy," consumers wouldn't be confused.
The FDA seems inclined to stay out of it this round as well.
"We evaluate all these communications, but we plan our actions based on what will make the most impact for the public health," said spokeswoman Siobhan DeLancey.

If imitation is flattery, Apple and Pepsi-Cola will be flushed with pride as competing soft drink manufacturer Coca-Cola announces its plans to offer 20 million free music downloads to UK customers in March/April 2004.
It marks Coca-Cola's launch of its MyCokeMusic.com service this month. It sold 10,000 tracks on its first day despite major technical problems. Coca-Cola is working with Peter Gabriel's OD2 service to sell music in Windows format, so Macs aren't supported.
The free music downloads will be available in a bottle-top promotion, similar to the deal Pepsi and Apple will launch at the SuperBowl on February 1. Pepsi and Apple are offering 100 million free tunes with one-in-three customers guaranteed to win music; in the UK, Coca-Cola is offering just a one-in-ten chance of winning, Digital Music News reports.
Pepsi-Cola today has confirmed reports that its five SuperBowl ads will feature 16 teenagers sued by the RIAA for illegally downloading music. It's intended to show teenagers that there's a new way to get hold of free music – by buying Pepsi and using Apple's iTunes Music Store. The commercial is set to Green Day's version of "I Fought the Law."
The other ads will include:
Pepsi - "Crossroads": Set in 1953, a young Jimi Hendrix seeks refreshment and must choose between a Pepsi and Coke machine. After buying a Pepsi and taking a drink, Hendrix has a revelation and a music legend is born.
Pepsi - "Mountain Men": Two bears exploring an empty cabin in the woods come across food but nothing to drink: the Pepsi cooler is empty.
Sierra Mist - "Bagpipes": A bagpiper performing in extremely hot temperatures finds a unique way to achieve a "shockingly refreshing" cool-down.
Sierra Mist - "Fire Escape": A guy and his dog, now in their third Sierra Mist commercial together, take a plunge from a fire escape to get refreshment during an extremely hot day.
"The Super Bowl offers the biggest and best stage to generate buzz and excitement for our brands," said Dave Burwick, chief marketing officer, Pepsi-Cola North America. "There is no better time or place to launch new ideas like our 100 million-song giveaway promotion with Apple."
