UPDATE 3-Starbucks to open U.S. juice bars in 2012
* Launching new chain of juice shops
* New stores will be separate from Starbucks cafes
* Buys California-based juice maker Evolution Fresh
* $30 million cash deal closed on Thursday
- Starbucks Corp plans to start a chain of juice bars starting next year, venturing into territory staked out by Jamba Inc , in its biggest-ever expansion beyond coffee.
The world's largest coffee chain, which has made no secret of its ambitions to expand beyond its staple business, said on Thursday it bought juice company Evolution Fresh for $30 million in cash.
Chief Executive Officer Howard Schultz hopes buying Evolution Fresh, whose products are sold by a handful of retailers, including Whole Foods Market Inc , will give the company a meaningful foothold in the estimated $50 billion health food market.
The first juice bars will open on the U.S. West Coast around the middle of next year, but the company would not say how many were planned. The chain's name has not been revealed and it was not clear whether Starbucks' familiar Mermaid logo -- which recently dropped the word "coffee" from its design -- would be displayed in the stores, which also will sell food.
Starbucks took control of its business selling packaged coffee, tea and ready-to-drink beverages earlier this year and has had success getting its products in more desirable spots on grocery store shelves, Hottovy said.
San Bernardino, California-based Evolution Fresh sells fruit and vegetable juices and was started by the founder of Naked Juice, which is now owned by PepsiCo Inc . It uses a heat-free, high-pressure pasteurization process it says retains more of the nutrients in its products compared with using conventional heat pasteurization.
Its products are currently sold in Whole Foods and PCC Natural Markets stores on the U.S. West Coast. Starbucks plans to expand distribution into additional retail channels and sell the products in its own retail stores.
Over time, Starbucks said it plans to invest in Evolution Fresh's facility upgrades, as well as its distribution business.
Starbucks expects Evolution Fresh to operate at a modest loss in fiscal 2012 before breaking even in fiscal 2013. The company, which returned to profit growth in 2010 after a painful two-year restructuring, said its forecasts for fiscal 2012 are unchanged as a result of the acquisition.
Jamba shares were unchanged at $1.66 at the close of Nasdaq trading on Thursday. Starbucks, which is up about 40 percent over the last 12 months, added 1.3 percent to finish at $43.52.
Paterno, a sainted figure at Penn State for almost half a century but scarred forever by the scandal involving his one-time heir apparent, died Sunday at age 85............
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — Other than family, football was everything to Joe Paterno. It was his lifeblood. It kept him pumped.
Life could not be the same without it.
"Right now, I'm not the coach. And I've got to get used to that," Paterno said after the Penn State Board of Trustees fired him at the height of a child sex abuse scandal.
Before he could, he ran out of time.
Paterno, a sainted figure at Penn State for almost half a century but scarred forever by the scandal involving his one-time heir apparent, died Sunday at age 85.
His death came just 65 days after his son Scott said his father had been diagnosed with lung cancer. Mount Nittany Medical Center said he died at 9:25 a.m. of "metastatic small cell carcinoma of the lung," an aggressive cancer that has spread from one part of the body to an unrelated area.
Friends and former colleagues believe there were other factors — the kind that wouldn't appear on a death certificate.
"You can die of heartbreak. I'm sure Joe had some heartbreak, too," said 82-year-old Bobby Bowden, the former Florida State coach who retired two years ago after 34 seasons in Tallahassee.
Longtime Nebraska coach Tom Osborne said he suspected "the emotional turmoil of the last few weeks might have played into it."
And Mickey Shuler, who played tight end for Paterno from 1975 to 1977, held his alma mater accountable.
"I don't think that the Penn State that he helped us to become and all the principles and values and things that he taught were carried out in the handling of his situation," he said.
Paterno's death just under three months following his last victory called to mind another coaching great, Alabama's Paul "Bear" Bryant, who died less than a month after retiring.
"Quit coaching?" Bryant said late in his career. "I'd croak in a week."
Paterno alluded to the remark made by his friend and rival, saying in 2003: "There isn't anything in my life anymore except my family and my football. I think about it all the time."
The winningest coach in major college football, Paterno roamed the Penn State sidelines for 46 seasons, his thick-rimmed glasses, windbreaker and jet-black sneakers as familiar as the Nittany Lions' blue and white uniforms.
His devotion to what he called "Success with Honor" made Paterno's fall all the more startling.
Happy Valley seemed perfect for him, a place where "JoePa" knew best, where he not only won more football games than any other major college coach, but won them the right way. With Paterno, character came first, championships second, academics before athletics. He insisted that on-field success not come at the expense of graduation rates.
But in the middle of his final season, the legend was shattered. Paterno was engulfed in a child sex abuse scandal when a former trusted assistant, Jerry Sandusky, was accused of molesting 10 boys over a 15-year span, sometimes in the football building.
Outrage built quickly after the state's top law enforcement official said the coach hadn't fulfilled a moral obligation to go to authorities when a graduate assistant, Mike McQueary, reported seeing Sandusky with a young boy in the showers of the football complex in 2002.
McQueary said that he had seen Sandusky attacking the child with his hands around the boy's waist but said he wasn't 100 percent sure it was intercourse. McQueary described Paterno as shocked and saddened and said the coach told him he had "done the right thing" by reporting the encounter.
Paterno waited a day before alerting school officials and never went to the police.
"I didn't know which way to go ... and rather than get in there and make a mistake," Paterno told The Washington Post in an interview nine days before his death.
"You know, (McQueary) didn't want to get specific," Paterno said. "And to be frank with you I don't know that it would have done any good, because I never heard of, of, rape and a man. So I just did what I thought was best. I talked to people that I thought would be, if there was a problem, that would be following up on it."
When the scandal broke in November, Paterno said he would retire following the 2011 season. He also said he was "absolutely devastated" by the abuse case.
"This is a tragedy," he said. "It is one of the great sorrows of my life. With the benefit of hindsight, I wish I had done more."
But the university trustees fired Paterno, effective immediately. Graham Spanier, one of the longest-serving university presidents in the nation, also was fired.

I'am well done....
When i was done i set in the chair in front, suit brand new shoe and hair jailed all in for the job. it was the best pick to match my grad to an exectuve post. The interview went aesome as i heard from the recruit to return for the second and on to the third where i got my desk in my office. That was the job of the few i interviewed which made me the Marketing Coordinator for the company. My daily activities are totaly different now, I no longer have to spend fatigue days from longnights of study. I go around to the city meeting and exchange words at happy hours with the city government menmbers from the mayor to assemblyman and assemblywomen, congresseman and congresswomen, i wrote for immediate releases, articles in the local papers about whatever events our company is either enghaged into or what we are invited people to have at our events. Yes annual calander must have the younger look of those who are now in their upper fifties. But not a high school photo. I was the front man for the JTPA program in the South East los Angeles County. Laid off workers are top priority, the unemployed to be retrained in a different feild of work, and convicted felons to be at the work training programs and job placements. Also i had behind the desk duties or admin as they call it. The file storage need to be clean and organized, rotated and and sweeping the trash and dust before we lock it.
It was difficult, but that is what i wanted. part of it is a tie and suit, and sometimes my sleves half way up to clean. Advertising and putting the word of mouth for the company was a priority to continue receiving the state funds to grant those institutions which offer all our services, trainning like Cerritos College and Cerritos School district Second Education program, ITT Techenical Institute, and some of the mom and pop welding trainning shops or machine shops. they all received funds from our company.
looking back, it was great, because now i have one the most effective tool to protect me and to fight back. My Master, and my carrer.
If there was anything to do otherwise with my personal affairs, why grant me an MBA, and such an awsome job. For one here and there are many who like to complaint based on nothing else but envy... otherwise as everyone heard before. Itis mutual i don't like you too, tell your daddy to give me all my money back compuded daily plus all my contribution and efforts, There is an other place where i can sit in peace away from any of what you trying to say.

Lose belly fat.....
The secret is in whole foods. Here are the Top 5 Fat Loss Foods contained in a nutrition program designed to burn stubborn belly fat:
1) Chicken Breast
Chicken, by far, is the most popular choice for fitness enthusiasts & fitness competitors alike. You can buy it in bulk & it's easy to cook. But all chicken isn't made the same. You want to make sure you stick to lean cuts of meat such as the breasts. Other parts of a chicken contain lots of fat and hidden calories
2) Eggs and Egg Whites
Egg whites are another important food for someone ready to get serious about losing fat. Each egg contains 7 grams of protein. Take out the yolk, and it will yield 3.5 grams of protein. You can stock up your refrigerator with dozens of eggs at a time, and have a ready meal within minutes. To Bump the protein, I suggest combining whole eggs & egg whites at a 1:4 ratio.
3) Oatmeal
This is a very potent fat burner. And easy to cook or just add to your protein shake. Since the carbs contained in oatmeal are releases slowly over time, you won't get the insulin spike that KILLS the fat burning effect as found with more simple carbs. A typical half cup includes three grams of fat, five grams of
protein, and 27 grams of carbs, which is an ideal balance. Always choose regular flavor & stay away from the high sugar packets.
4) Brown Rice
This is another cornerstone staple. Be sure to measure it out to keep the calories controlled. Brown rice and is your top choice for a slow releasing starchy carbohydrate.
5) Fish and Fish Oils
One of Les' foods of choice was fish. The omega-3 & 6's ramp up the fat burning effect of your day to day activity. If you choose tuna, keep it to 2-3 cans per week. My fish of choice is Tilapia. It cooks fast, and has less of a "fishy taste".
Four Connecticut Police Officers Charged with Civil Rights Offenses
New York FBI Assistant Director in Charge Janice K. Fedarcyk, center, is joined by U.S. Attorney David B. Fein, left, and Assistant Attorney General Thomas E. Perez at a press conference in Bridgeport.
A federal grand jury in Bridgeport indicted four East Haven Police officers on charges of conspiring to violate, and violating, the civil rights of members of the East Haven community. It is alleged that unreasonable force was used when victims were unarmed, neither resisting nor interfering with the police, but rather securely under the control of the police or otherwise cooperative. In some cases, the victims were handcuffed with their hands behind their backs when officers assaulted them.
Sgt. John Miller and Officers David Cari, Dennis Spaulding, and Jason Zullo were arrested this morning without incident. According to allegations contained in the indictment, from approximately 2007 through 2011, Miller, Cari, Spaulding, and Zullo, while acting under color of law, conspired to injure, oppress, threaten, and intimidate various members of the East Haven community in violation of their constitutional rights.
The case is being investigated by the Civil Rights Squad of the FBI’s New York Field Office. New York FBI Special Operation teams, including its SWAT Team, assisted in today’s arrests.
“The four police officers charged today allegedly formed a cancerous cadre that routinely deprived East Haven residents of their civil rights,” said New York FBI Assistant Director in Charge Janice K. Fedarcyk. “The public should not need protection from those sworn to protect and serve. In simple terms, these defendants behaved like bullies with badges.”

A New York City cop committed suicide Thursday night — shooting himself in the head on a Queens street while responding to a call, police sources said.
Neighbors saw the unnamed officer lying in the street after hearing a single shot on 211th St. in Hollis Hills around 10:40 p.m.
The officer, 28,was taken to Long Island Jewish Medical Center where he died, according to police.
“He was lying on the (the street) bleeding,” said neighbor Gerry Namti, 44.
The officers were responding to a call about a series of car break-ins on the block, a source said.
“He got out of his (patrol) car and he’s on the phone with somebody,” a police source said. “He puts the gun in his mouth and fires.”
A police source said that the officer was arguing with his girlfriend.
“It’s probably the prettiest block in Hollis Hills,” a neighbor said. “This is the first time in 20 years I’ve ever seen something like this happen. It’s awful.”
Feds stepping up police-abuse casses :
SEATTLE – If the Seattle Police Department feels singled out by the U.S. Department of Justice and its findings of an unconstitutional pattern of excessive force by officers, it shouldn’t.
It was one of three law-enforcement agencies in the span of a few days last month that were accused by the federal agency of violating the rights of the people they’re supposed to protect and serve.
When Assistant Attorney Thomas Perez, head of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, disclosed the findings Dec. 16 in Seattle, the event was sandwiched between other news conferences to announce that the Justice Department found that law-enforcement officers in Maricopa County, Ariz., and East Haven, Conn., had discriminated against Latinos.
Such “pattern and practice” investigations – so-called because they seek to identify unconstitutional patterns and practices by police – are on a steep upswing, according to a review of Justice Department statistics.
Experts on race, the law and police accountability say the rise in such cases reflects, in part, a disturbing increase in cases of police abuse across the country that can’t be entirely explained away by an aggressive civil-rights-minded attorney general or a change in the political winds.
“There is no question that there is a problem,” said Sam Walker, emeritus professor of criminal justice at the University of Nebraska, Omaha, and the author of more than a dozen books on police accountability, civil rights and police oversight.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. — A detective succumbed to severe head injuries sustained in a 2003 car accident Wednesday.
The accident occurred when a vehicle traveling in the wrong lane struck the patrol car of Detective Andrew Faggio, who was on his way to a stakeout assignment, according to the Officer Down Memorial Page. The 14-year veteran of the New Haven Police Department went into a coma, from which he never emerged.
He leaves behind a wife, Jennifer, and two sons, and the community remembers his service.

25 years for man who fired on Calif. police
Ventura County Superior Court Judge Charles Campbell gave Jeffrey Stephen Fennell 1,151 days of credit for the time he spent in jail after his arrest...
By Raul Hernandez
Ventura County Star
A judge sentenced a Ventura man to 25 years in prison Tuesday for firing more than 50 rounds at police during a standoff on Jade Drive in Ventura in 2009.
Jeffrey Stephen Fennell, 42, pleaded guilty in November to assault on a police officer with a semi-automatic weapon, assault with a deadly weapon and three counts of shooting at an inhabited dwelling, according to court records. Fennell also admitted to discharging a firearm.
Ventura County Superior Court Judge Charles Campbell gave Fennell 1,151 days of credit for the time he spent in jail after his arrest.
Campbell found Fennell has a history of drug abuse and recommended the defendant attend drug counseling in prison. The judge dismissed the remaining criminal counts against him as part of a plea agreement, according to court records.
Authorities said Fennell had been drinking alcohol before the April 10, 2009, incident, which began about 5:50 p.m. with a report of a man holding his wife hostage at a home in the 900 block of Jade Drive. She escaped before police arrived.
Fennell refused to surrender to officers and fired at them, according to the Ventura Police Department. Bullets hit homes that had been evacuated and struck a fire station two blocks away. No neighbors or officers were injured.
Fennell surrendered more than four hours later after being shot by a SWAT officer.

is a county in the U.S. state of California. Its county seat is Santa Ana. As of the 2010 census, its population was 3,010,232, up from 2,846,293 at the 2000 census, making it the third most populous county in California, behind Los Angeles County and San Diego County.[1] It is the sixth most populous county in the United States as of 2009 while at the same time is the smallest area-wise county in Southern California, being roughly half the size of the next smallest county, Ventura. The county is famous for its tourism, as the home of such attractions as Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farm, as well as several beaches along its more than 40 miles (64 km) of coastline. It is known for its affluence and political conservatism – a 2005 academic study listed three Orange County cities as being among America's 25 "most conservative," making it the only county in the country containing more than one such city.[2]
Orange County was at the time the largest US county to have gone bankrupt, when in 1994 longtime treasurer Robert Citron's investment strategies left the county with inadequate capital to allow for any raise in interest rates for its trading positions. When the conservative residents of Orange County voted down a proposal to raise taxes in order to balance the budget, bankruptcy followed soon after. Citron later pleaded guilty to six felonies regarding the matter.[3]
The city of Santa Ana serves as the governmental center of the county, Anaheim as its main tourist destination, and Irvine as its major business and financial hub. Three Orange County cities have populations exceeding 200,000: Santa Ana, Anaheim, and Irvine.

IC3 2009 Annual Report on Internet Crime Released
Law enforcement relies on the corporate sector and citizens to report when they encounter on-line suspicious activity so these schemes can be investigated and criminals can be arrested,” stated Peter Trahon, section chief of the FBI’s Cyber Division. “Computer users are encouraged to have up-to-date security protection on their devices and evaluate e-mail solicitations they receive with a healthy skepticism—if something seems too good to be true, it likely is.”
NW3C Director Donald Brackman said the report’s findings underscore the threat posed by cyber criminals. “The figures contained in this report indicate that criminals are continuing to take full advantage of the anonymity afforded them by the Internet. They are also developing increasingly sophisticated means of defrauding unsuspecting consumers. Internet crime is evolving in ways we couldn’t have imagined just five years ago.” But Brackman sounded an optimistic tone about the future. “With the public’s continued support, law enforcement will be better able to track down these perpetrators and bring them to justice.”
The report is posted in its entirety on the IC3 website.

Female Ark. corrections officer killed
Sgt. Barbara Ester, 47, was stabbed in the side, abdomen and chest at about 12:30 p.m., said Shea Wilson................
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — A convicted murderer stabbed a female guard to death at an east Arkansas prison Friday while she was investigating whether he had an unauthorized pair of shoes, a prison spokeswoman said.
Sgt. Barbara Ester, 47, was stabbed in the side, abdomen and chest at about 12:30 p.m., said Shea Wilson, a spokeswoman for the Arkansas Department of Correction. Ester died about 3 p.m. at a hospital in Memphis, Tenn., about 40 miles away.
Ester, a 12-year veteran of the correction department, was a property officer who investigated whether inmates had contraband items. Wilson said the guard had received a report that Johnson had a pair of contraband shoes.
"This is obviously very difficult for the department when something tragic like this happens," Wilson said. "Our thoughts and prayers are with Sgt. Ester's family. These officers — it's a tight-knit workplace. They look out for each other and are there together for a lot of hours of the day, so this is very difficult for everyone."
Wilson said the prison wasn't locked down after the attack and that the inmate, Latavious Johnson, was being moved to the state's maximum-security unit at Varner.
Johnson, 30, was serving a life sentence for first-degree murder out of Jefferson County. He was sentenced in 2000 for killing his father. Prosecutors said Johnson was 18 at the time of the crime.
Wilson said Johnson had had several disciplinary infractions, including one this week for not obeying orders, but hadn't previously attacked a guard.
"We will move him to the supermax (prison) so he will be out of that environment ... He needed to be out of that environment," Wilson said.
Arkansas State Police and the prison's internal affairs staff were investigating the stabbing. Wilson said authorities would turn over their information to prosecutors, who will determine whether to file charges against the inmate.
