Create a Facebook Window Cling for Your Small Business

Ever since we published the article Drive Traffic to Facebook with Facebook Window Clings we have been receiving a ton of emails and phone calls from business owners across the country who are looking to purchase a Facebook Window Cling from us. That would be a great return-on-investment story if the goal of that article was to drive sales of Facebook Window Clings. Unfortunately, we don’t sell Facebook Window Clings! icon smile Create a Facebook Window Cling for Your Small Business We actually wrote the post after we received a Facebook Window Cling for Catalyst Marketers. The package came from Facebook and we hadn’t done anything to request it. That led us to assume that Facebook was sending Window Clings out to all owners of a Facebook Business Page. And they very well could be doing that. With that said, we haven’t read any other articles about Facebook sending out the Window Clings. Due to the high demand of Facebook Window Clings from small business owners, and seemingly lack of supply from Facebook, we decided to write this follow-up article to help you create your very own Facebook Window Cling using VistaPrint.com.

Consumer Reports: Pick your ideal diet

Posted: 07 Jun 2011 09:06 PM PDT

Jenny Craig, the diet program that combines counseling with a portion-controlled regimen of pre-made foods supplemented by home-cooked sides, was recently designated a Ratings winner by Consumer Reports Health.

With an overall score of 85, Jenny Craig easily surpassed the popular Weight Watchers (57) program by nearly 30 points.

The diet Ratings are based on adherence to nutritional guidelines set forth by the 2010 U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans, and weight loss and dropout rates, both short-term and long-term, derived from published clinical trials.

And that’s where Jenny Craig excelled.

In a 332-person, two-year study of the program published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, 92 percent of participants stuck with Jenny Craig for two years, a remarkable level of adherence. As a result, those participants shaved off an average of about 8 percent of their weight.

“Jenny Craig is worth considering, but if you don’t like the idea of eating prepackaged meals, it may not be the best option for you,” said Nancy Metcalf, senior program editor for Consumer Reports Health. “The best diet is the one that you can stay on. Because if you can’t stick with it, then you won’t lose weight, nor will you be able to keep off any weight you do manage to lose.”

The report reviews some emerging evidence relative to weight loss and nutrition:

•Calories, with an asterisk. As Dr. Dean Ornish puts it, “The first law of thermodynamics still applies, meaning that to lose weight you have to burn more calories than you take in.”

But new evidence shows that some forms of calories are more filling than others. Protein is the most satiating nutrient, followed by high-fiber grains, fruits and vegetables.

“The big-name diets are putting this principle to work to help dieters shed pounds with the fewest hunger pangs,” Metcalf said.

•It’s OK to go low carb. Evidence is accumulating that refined carbohydrates promote weight gain and Type 2 diabetes through their effects on blood sugar and insulin.

Restricting carbs can bring blood insulin levels down, helping a dieter burn body fat, which in turn helps you eat fewer calories.

On the topic of fat consumption, some surprising conclusions: The report notes that several epidemiology studies have found that saturated fat doesn’t seem to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease or stroke.

Other studies suggest that a dieter might be better off replacing saturated fat with unsaturated fat instead of with certain carbs, the ones that turn to blood sugar quickly, such as white bread and potatoes.

Frank B. Hu, a nutrition researcher at the Harvard School of Public Health, recently wrote that “refined carbohydrates are likely to cause even greater metabolic damage than saturated fat in a predominantly sedentary and overweight population.”

•Support matters. Consumer Reports Health reminds dieters not to discount the impact of a good emotional support system.

The Jenny Craig diet, for instance, includes weekly counseling sessions, and group support meetings are the foundation of the Weight Watchers plan.

Ornish’s program has run support groups for decades to help people follow his rigorous program.

“Most people think they’re going to have the hardest time with that support group, and yet it’s the secret sauce that makes the diet sustainable,” Ornish said.

Arsenal and Liverpool weigh up a move for Barca’s Bojan

Posted: 07 Jun 2011 07:06 PM PDT

June 6, 2011   ·   0 Comments

Both Arsenal and Liverpool are considering making a formal approach for out of favour Barcelona striker Bojan.

The twenty year old is deemed surplus to requirements by the European Champions and the majority of his appearances for Barca the season just gone were from coming off the substitute bench.

However, Bojan would not come cheap and the Daily Mail is reporting that he could cost as much as £17 million, which says more of the quality at the disposal to Barcelona rather than an inflated transfer valuation.

Having gained one full cap for Spain, Bojan has played 104 times for Barcelona nd scored 26 goals. But with the abundance of talent available at the Nou Camp, it is not surprising why Barca would see fit to let him go, if the price is right.

For Arsenal in particular Bojan could be a sweetner to their fans, who look like they could see the loss of the likes of Nasri, Fabregas and Bendtner during the summer. Meanwhile, Liverpool are being linked with several players in addition to Bojan, including the likes of left back Jose Enrique of Newcastle.

wwdc keynote41 How to Upgrade to iOS 5 Today, Without Any Developer Account

Since its announcement at WWDC 2011 on Monday, iOS 5 has only been available to developers. In one day, an Apple fan found a workaround. Photo: Jim Merithew/Wired.com

by Jesus Diaz, Gizmodo

One day and iOS 5 has been hacked already. Gizmodo reader and Apple lover Mert Erdir has discovered how to upgrade to iOS 5 without developer accounts, using a simple backdoor. Everyone can do it following these extremely simple instructions:gizmodo logo How to Upgrade to iOS 5 Today, Without Any Developer Account

The method exploits a security flaw in the activation screen, apparently related to the Voice Over system. Here's how to do it.

Warning: While this operation should be simple and inconsequential, we are not responsible for what you do to your iOS device. Proceed at your own risk.

1. Download the iOS 5 IPSW file from the web (it's easy and readily available. Just Google it and torrent it down).
2. Update your iPhone using iTunes. To do this, connect your iPhone to your computer, click on the Check for Update button with the Option (Mac) or Shift (PC) key pressed. Select the iOS 5 IPSW file from the place you downloaded it to.
3. Wait until it upgrades. A new activation screen will appear.
Activate iOS 5

1. Triple click the home button. This will activate the Voice Over.
2. Triple click the home button and Emergency Call will appear.
3. Click on Emergency Call and, while it's switching, swipe with your three fingers down.
4. The Notification Center will appear!
5. Click on the Weather widget. The Weather app will load.
6. Click on the home button to exit to the iPhone's springboard.

That's it. Your phone is activated and fully operative. Enjoy and thank Mert Erdir for this clever link. He has these words to say:

My will is not to do something harmful to anyone, I just wanted to get the attention of Apple, the company I'm in love with; and maybe one day have a chance to talk to/meet Steve Jobs himself. You can reach me on Twitter for further questions.

I found this because I don't have much cash to get an IOS Developer account, so donations for a young developer will be appreciated. They can be made on my blog (not in english). You'll see the PayPal donate button on the right. Thanks!

So send the kid some dollars so he can become a pro developer. With his patience and creativity finding this iOS 5 backdoor, I'm sure he will do a great job.
