United Franchise Connection Wins Top Ten Honors in Business Competition
United Franchise Connection has been recognized by StartupNation as a Top Ten
business in its 2009 Home Based 100 competition under the category of Recession
Busters.

Pottstown, PA, November 17, 2009 -- United Franchise Connection has been recognized
by StartupNation as a Top Ten business in its 2009 Home Based 100 competition under
the category of Recession Busters.

Many of the StartupNation Home-Based 100 submissions revealed that business owners
are bucking the current economic downturn and finding business success in these
tight times.
Historically some of today?s most well known businesses started in a
downturn, including Microsoft and General Electric.

?The 2009 ranking shows that the home-based business is more relevant than ever.

The current recession has spurred a new wave of home based businesses as a response
to loss of jobs, the need for supplemental income and the sheer passion for blazing
your own trail and running your own show,? said Rich Sloan, co-founder of
StartupNation.
com, one of the leading small business networking and advice
websites.
?Home based businesses are the biggest block of all businesses in
existence and we expect numbers to grow ever greater as extra bedrooms, kitchen
tables, basements and garages become host to the innovative thinking and pursuit of
success by millions of Americans.
?
John Henning, the owner of United Franchise Connection, stated ?I am ecstatic; I
never expected to win a Top 10 Award in this large of a contest, considering there
were literally 10?s of 1000?s of applicants! This is pretty exciting!?
The StartupNation Home-Based 100 highlights 10 top-ten lists making it not just
your ordinary business ranking.
From the wackiest, to the most innovative, to the
savviest in social media ? this unique and diverse list highlights the home-based
businesses that usually go unrecognized, but still play a vital role in the economy
today.
MSN publishes the ranking as well in an editorial collaboration with
StartupNation.
The ten categories for 2009 include:
* Recession Busters
* Savviest in Social Media
* Most Innovative
* Boomers Back in Business
* Greenest
* Yummiest
* Wackiest
* Highest Vote-Getters
* Most Slacker-Friendly
* Most Glamorous
United Franchise Connection was selected from among thousands of contestants by a
StartupNation judging panel, which issues the ranking results annually in the
November.

The full results of the Home-Based 100 ranking are available on StartupNation?s

Juice Bar Addition is Hailed as a Success at Performance Food Centers? Client
Lighthouse Bookstore
Christian Bookstore?s Juice Bar Offers Healthy Beverages and Snacks; Becomes
Gathering Place for Customers and Community.

Pottstown, PA, November 17, 2009 -- Performance Food Centers congratulates Keith
and Brenda Harrison on the successful integration of a juice bar into their
business, The Lighthouse Christian Bookstore.
The Heaven?s Garden Juice Bar is
situated within the bookstore and provides an array of healthy beverages, snacks
and a central meeting place for the Christian community.

Starting a juice bar was a logical extension of the original purpose of The
Lighthouse Christian Bookstore.
The Harrisons opened the bookstore in November 1996
to offer Christian resources and inspirational gifts to their community and a place
for people to gather for fun and encouraging events.
After much success, the owners
knew they wanted to serve the community in a greater way by offering a gathering
place that served healthy products to their groups that gather at the bookstore.
In
2008 they made the decision to look for a vendor that offered juice bar supplies,
including nutritious smoothies and organic coffee and tea to be served within their
bookstore.

Once the Harrison?s decided that they wanted to open a juice bar, they did a
substantial amount of research to find the right fit for them.
Searching for a
juice bar distributor online, they encountered Performance Food Centers.
?It was
important to us to find smoothies that would be nutritious and healthy? mentioned
Brenda Harrison.
?PFC smoothies are sugar free, all natural, delicious drinks,
which are very easy to make.
? Mrs.
Harrison also pointed out a benefit that was of
key importance to The Lighthouse Christian Bookstore: ?PFC was also affordable for
us, since there were no franchise fees, nor huge requirements for us to get
started.
?
Performance Food Centers has made it easy for The Lighthouse Christian Bookstore to
get into the juice bar business.
?Our experience has been AMAZING, our PFC
representatives, Ryan and Lindsey Kehl, are very informative and helpful? comments
Brenda Harrison.
?Performance Food Centers goes out of their way to offer great
resources for us to use.
We couldn?t be more pleased with our choice.
?
At Heaven?s Garden, the smoothie juice bar offers a wide variety of shakes and
healthy fitness smoothies that both parents and kids will enjoy.
Performance Foods?
Shake of the Month has been very popular? mentions the Harrisons, ?Especially
October?s Guiltless Pumpkin Pie.
? In addition, Heaven?s Garden offers a delightful
selection of Allegro coffees and teas which is a perfect accompaniment to an
afternoon of quiet reading, or the group conversation of a book club.

Keith and Brenda both agree that operating a Christian store has been a great
experience and adding a juice bar has allowed them to grow closer to the community.

Acting as a hub of activity, Heaven?s Garden regularly hosts gatherings and
concerts, like the upcoming concert by Phillip Larue.
A singer/songwriter from
Nashville, Tennessee, Phillip has had many songs featured on such shows as The
Hills, One Tree Hill, Ghost Whisperer and Harper?s Island.
Mr.
Larue will be
playing Heaven?s Garden on Saturday, December 12, at 5 p.
m.

Congratulations to the owners of Lighthouse Bookstore for serving their community,
offering a great place to gather and share healthy shakes, coffees and teas.

Lionstone Development Engages Miami?s Art Community with Sneak Preview of 6th
Annual Masters Mystery Art Show
Fundraiser Benefits Florida International University?s Master of Fine Arts in
Visual Arts Program
Miami, FL, November 16, 2009 -- Four hundred local business leaders, art
enthusiasts and members of the Florida International University arts and design
community recently attended an exclusive sneak preview and cocktail reception to
celebrate the upcoming sixth annual Masters Mystery Art Show (MMAS) at FIU?s new
Patricia & Philip Frost Art Museum.
Guests enjoyed live music by students from the
FIU School of Performing Arts as they perused artwork that will be available for
sale during the 2009 MMAS.

Supported by the Lowenstein family, owners of Miami-based Lionstone Development
Group, the MMAS is one of the most important fundraisers benefitting FIU?s
prestigious Master of Fine Arts in Visual Arts (MFA) program.
Proceeds from last
year?s MMAS, which totaled more than $30,000, provide students with support for art
exhibitions, artist?s lectures, workshops and conference travel.

The sixth annual MMAS will be hosted Wednesday, December 2nd with a private
cocktail reception to coincide with Art Basel Miami Beach and a public showing for
one day only on December 3rd from 12-7pm.
This international fundraising exhibition
gathers prominent business and community leaders and art collectors at the
exclusive Lionstone Development-owned The Ritz-Carlton, South Beach.
During MMAS,
more than 1,000 works are displayed anonymously, creating an artistic ?whodunit? as
guests buzz around the mini masterpieces and try to identify works by famous
artists and new talent to add to their collections.
Previously, celebrities and
famous artists have contributed works for sale during MMAS, including John Legend,
Rachel Ray, Carlos Betancourt, Romero Britto, Andy Garcia, Gloria and Emilio
Estefan and Rosie O?Donnell.
All proceeds benefit FIU, specifically the school?s
MFA program.

?The Masters? Mystery Art Show is one of the most important annual fundraisers for
the South Florida arts community, and we seek to attract new and existing artists
and supporters to the event each year,? said Martin Elortegui, Lionstone
Development?s Senior Vice President of Sales & Marketing and a major force behind
the MMAS since its inception.
?Through the funds gathered by this event, we are
providing talented artists with the opportunity to master their craft at FIU, and
help bring national recognition to South Florida?s rich artistic and cultural
community.
Contributing to Miami?s cultural expansion of the arts is an initiative
embraced by the entire Lowenstein family, and we hope many others will join us to
continue this mission.
?
FIU President Mark B.
Rosenberg thanked Elortegui and the Lowenstein family for
their constant passion for the arts, creation of the MMAS and overall support of
FIU?s MFA program.
He also invited attendees to join the Lowenstein family in
supporting the MMAS and helping to continue the program?s success.

The Lowenstein family has proudly supported the MMAS program since 2003.
An
extension of the Lowenstein family?s personal passion for the arts, the Lowensteins
created the MMAS in conjunction with FIU to offer a platform to generate awareness
and support for valuable art education programs and showcase up-and-coming artistic
talent from the Miami area and beyond.

New Tax Law Allowing For Roth IRA Conversions May Be a Bad Deal for Taxpayers Jeff Nabers, CEO of the Nabers Group an unconventional financial planning firm located in Denver, CO, cautions those to carefully look...   [Plus]

New Tax Law Allowing For Roth IRA Conversions May Be a Bad Deal for Taxpayers
Jeff Nabers, CEO of the Nabers Group an unconventional financial planning firm
located in Denver, CO, cautions those to carefully look at all their options when
considering a Roth IRA conversion.

Denver, CO, November 16, 2009 -- In 2010 millions of Americans will be able to do
something they have never done before ? convert their IRA into a Roth IRA account.

Current 2009 limitations do not allow anyone who makes more than $100,000 per year
to convert their traditional retirement funds into a Roth IRA.

However, beginning in 2010, the Roth IRA conversion restrictions are being lifted.

But is this really a good thing for taxpayers?
"Roth IRAs are a bad idea for taxpayers because they are paying taxes now in order
to avoid paying taxes on distributions that are taken later," said Jeff Nabers, CEO
of Nabers Group.
The problem is partly the economic crisis that we are in.
"It
makes sense if we were in a commodity-based monetary system, but we?re not.
We have
a fiat currency system that creates an inflationary environment in which Roth
conversion is a good deal for the government and a bad deal for the taxpayer.
"
Additionally, the Roth IRA conversion can be costly for the taxpayers.
If they opt
to convert their traditional IRAs to Roth IRAs, the IRS will view this as a taxable
event.
Account holders will be taxed based on the entire conversion amount for
their current tax bracket.
The income taxes due on the 2010 conversion can be
spread over two years.
However, future conversions must be included in income
reports to the IRS and will be taxed during the tax year in which the conversion is
completed.

Nabers cautions his clients to carefully look at all their options when considering
the Roth IRA conversion.
He suggests, "Instead they should continue using their
non-Roth Retirement accounts for the maximum tax benefit.
"
Nabers, self directed IRA expert and the author of Five Steps To
Freedom: How to Cut Your Dependence on Institutions and Escape Financial Slavery,
points out that the most important thing that taxpayers can do in these economic
times is to find alternative investment solutions.
"We?re likely heading into an
era of significant inflation.
I recommend that people seek alternatives to volatile
Wall Street Securities and dollar-denominated assets in general.
"
"The action that I recommend is to get more educated on the matter and look at both
sides of the story before making a decision," said Nabers.
He says deciding to
convert to a Roth IRA could cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars.
"Before
paying taxes using half of your savings, wealth, or retirement account, consult
experts about all of your options.
What you don?t know could hurt you?so seek
knowledge and information so that you can make an informed decision that you won?t
regret.
"
About Jeff Nabers and Nabers Group
Jeff Nabers has been highly sought after for his financial expertise for several
years by countless organizations, including Entrepreneur Magazine, the Los Angeles
Times, and Pensco Trust to name a few.
As the founding member of the IRA
Association of America, he brings integrity back to the business of investing.

The Nabers Group is available to consult with individuals regarding their savings
plan, with answers about all aspects of Self Directed Planning.

A Jesus Detective goes on a Magical Mystery Tour to Get the Real Facts
David Boulton is no stranger to audiences around the world in his role of
journalist and broadcaster, having been the recipient of the Royal Television
Society?s special award for outstanding services to broadcasting
Houston, TX, November 13, 2009 -- Wouldn?t it be nice to know what Jesus was like
as a more ?regular guy? before he became the divine Christ of faith? One very
talented man has taken on this challenge and written a one-volume, engrossing
account on this often-controversial subject that has been the center of debates
between contemporary scholars for years.
David Boulton has a long list of
impressive accolades behind his name ? he is a journalist, award-winning author,
long-time broadcaster on U.
K.
television, and is the author of Who on Earth Was
Jesus? (O-Books, John Hunt
Publishing).
In his book, he cuts through the mystery and hype and goes straight
to the guts of the issues ? resulting in a book that is the most comprehensive
study to date.
Incidentally, Who on Earth Was Jesus? has received such worldwide
acclaim that it sold out days after a three-star review appeared in Publishers
Weekly.

Everyone has a different opinion as evidenced by the countless books that have been
written ? everything from Christians writing about the Christ of faith to books by
atheists proposing Jesus is a myth, or those proposing a married or gay Jesus ?
even those who believe Jesus was really a woman named Mildred! So what really
makes this book so different? Boulton?s informative and well-researched book
incorporates the actual experiences gained by serious scholars throughout history,
delving into theories and conclusions of all the main competing schools of
historical Jesus scholarship.
It is broken down into three parts; the first part
is a ?road map? for the book?s journey, the second explains different schools of
thought and interpretations, and the third
summarizes what most mainstream scholars agree on and what disagreements remain
unresolved, with the final chapter taking a fresh look at the origins of the notion
of an apocalyptic End Time, making a passionate argument for determining whether
historical Jesus was an apocalyptic doomsayer or a utopian visionary.

The Edcomm Group Banker?s Academy Updates Operational Risk Training Program
The Edcomm Group Banker?s Academy has recently updated its Operational Risk

equipped to handle it and protect their customers, their co-workers and their bank.

Focus on Operational Risk, from Edcomm Banker?s Academy, is a computer-based,
distance learning program that teaches students everything they need to know about
operational risk in an interactive and self-paced format.
The course begins with an
introduction to operational risk and the operational structure to help employees

risk control, operational data reporting and analysis and the BASEL II Framework
for Operational Risk.

As the stock market reaches its most volatile levels since the Great Depression,
people are looking for alternative ways to invest their retirement funds.
Many
investors are discovering the real estate IRA as a alternative way to invest their
money as the real estate market at a low now stabilizes in some choice markets.

Austin, TX, November 11, 2009 -- With the stock market constantly proving itself to
be unstable, investors are turning to another method of investing for their
retirement.
Truly Self Directed IRA ( www.
IRALLCPartner.
com ) is a company that is
providing new options for investors by giving them safety from the volatile nature
of today s stock market.

While some critics of this type of plan have stated that the market always bounces
back, the current recovery is seen as a reaction to the government stimulus plan
and, therefore, is not sustainable.
Investors are now looking for alternatives to
the market and many of these people believe that real estate IRA is the way to go.

Josh Moore of Truly Self Directed IRA states that "there has been a significant
increase in the number of real estate IRA deals being done.
" This bodes well for
the future of this type of investments, "as many people are now choosing this
method over the stock market," Moore adds.

This is a direct backlash from the amount of money that has been lost in the stock
market over the past couple of years.
Individuals have been forced to work well
beyond their perceived retirement date because their retirement funds have been
depleted.

In some cases, these individuals have seen their funds decrease by 50% in a very
short span, which "rarely happens around the median home priced real estate market.

People need a place to live no matter what is happening on Wall Street.
Even though
the real estate market did go through some short term problems, it has rebounded in
many parts of the country and has truly stabilized," states Moore.

The Real estate IRA is meant to help people take control of their own destinies by
giving them some control over where their personal investments are placed.
"The
days of relying on a big company or a large government pension is no longer a
sustainable strategy for retirees because these programs seem to always receive
cuts, especially during a recessionary period.
It is wise therefore for every
investor to evaluate their investment strategy and take personal responsibility for
their own retirement plan," says Moore.

"In addition, we are starting to see a trend where younger investors are asking
about the Real Estate IRA at our company," states Moore.

The trend maybe increasing for a number of reasons:
1.
Investors are seeking to truly diversify.

2.
Many want control over where their retirement funds are invested.

3.
Many realize homes will always be in demand.

4.
Thirty and forty somethings realize there is not going to be a safety net for
them like Social Security so they must take the initiative now or face a
substandard lifestyle during their retirement years.

"Simply put, many wonder with the current state of the economy and the loses
suffered over the past year whether they will be able to retire," concludes Moore.

Arizona Orthopaedic Associates Offers Traditional Hip Replacement Surgery Alternative Anterior Hip Replacement Procedure Minimizes Pain and Shortens Recovery Time Phoenix, AZ, November 10, 2009 -- Hip replacements...   [Plus]

Arizona Orthopaedic Associates Offers Traditional Hip Replacement Surgery
Alternative
Anterior Hip Replacement Procedure Minimizes Pain and Shortens Recovery Time
Phoenix, AZ, November 10, 2009 -- Hip replacements are on the rise in America, with
the number of procedures almost doubling over the past 10 years.
Arizona
Orthopaedic Associates at Gateway is meeting that demand with a minimally invasive
procedure that reduces pain and cuts recovery times by up to three months.

Using a state-of-the-art operating table and intraoperative x-ray, the Phoenixbased orthopedic surgeons group has patients walking the same day as surgery and
returning to full mobility within 2-8 weeks, instead of the typical 2-4 months
needed after traditional surgery.

AOA surgeons were the first in Arizona to perform the procedure and recently
completed their 450th hip replacement using the special table, also known as the
OSI-Pro-FX Hip and Knee Arthroplasty Table.
It is the only surgical table designed
exclusively for hip and knee arthroplasty.

The OSI-Pro-FX table allows AOA surgeons to simply work through the natural
interval between the muscles, leaving the most important muscles for hip function the gluteal muscles that attach to the pelvis and femur - undisturbed, providing
patients with the least invasive procedure available and faster recovery time.

?The most important benefit of this approach is that no muscle is cut during the
replacement procedure, thereby shortening a patient?s recovery time,? said Dr.

Douglas Hartzler of Arizona Orthopaedic Associates at Gateway.

Dr.
Hartzler used the anterior approach on Elva Atherton, a Yuma resident who had
struggled with a bad hip for years.

?The pain had become excruciating,? Atherton said.
?Dr.
Hartzler recommended the
anterior procedure, explaining the shorter recovery time and I made up my mind
right there.
I didn?t think twice about it.
?
Previous experience helped guide Atherton?s decision ? she had helped her mother
recover from a traditional hip replacement many years ago and realized the benefits
of the anterior approach almost immediately.

?I had dealt with the traditional approach and could see how this made sense,? she
said.
?It took my mother almost a year to recuperate but I was up and on my feet
the next day.
?
With its unique capability to position the leg, the OSI-Pro-FX table enables AOA
physicians to replace the hip through a single incision, without detachment of
muscle from the pelvis or femur.
The OSI-Pro-FX table allows for a positioning
option not possible with conventional tables and interoperative x-ray ensures
precise placement of the hip.
The result is reduced pain, less muscle trauma, a
lower risk of dislocation and a shorter hospital stay.

?I was walking without the benefit of a cane the next morning,? said Jack White, a
physically-fit Paradise Valley resident who opted for the surgery in April 2008.
?
Five days later, I walked a mile and a half.
?
Dr.
Hartzler said more and more patients are asking for the procedure as they learn
the benefits of the shorter recovery time.

?Since the time needed to build up the surrounding muscles is eliminated with this   [Moins]

New Castle Bay Online Store Covers the Golf Market
Golfers can now order classic Castle Bay Golf Club Covers from the new online store
Arnold, MO, November 10, 2009 -- Castle Bay is proud to announce the grand opening
of its new online store where you can find all the classic Castle Bay golf club
iron covers.
Shopping online has never been easier for iron covers, putter covers
and wood head covers.
The new Castle Bay store is easy to navigate with products
clearly displayed making selection quick and simple.
The new site sends all
documents, including confirmations, shipping information and invoices, directly to
your e-mailbox for easy reference.
Most importantly, all pricing includes free
freight eliminating additional fees.

Since its inception over 20 years ago, Castle Bay has been selling golf club iron
covers, golf club putter covers and wood head covers to major retailers and
national distributors in large or full box quantities.
A trip to a local retail
store was required for an individual to buy a set of Castle Bay classic iron
covers, but with the addition of the new online store a purchase of a single set is
available at the click of the mouse.

?Castle Bay has long served the individual golfer through retail outlets, and until
now that was their only choice.
Our business decision to open the online store not
only serves the individual golfer, but gives Castle Bay the opportunity to maintain
a leadership position as the best selling iron covers in the world,? said Jeff
Barket, Director of Sales and Marketing for Castle Bay and all the divisions of
Sinclair & Rush, Inc.

The Castle Bay iron cover resulted from a combination of the growing enthusiasm for
the game of golf and the engineering expertise of the Sinclair and Rush Company.

Many may recall the old hard plastic face protectors used in the early 70s and 80s,
but protecting just the face of the club was not as interesting to the Sinclair and
Rush engineers as was protecting the entire golf head.
Thus, the concept was born
to create a functional club cover that not only protects the entire golf head, but
extends beyond to protect a small portion of the shaft, as well.

?Timing is everything, and once the club cover discussion began, we knew dip
molding was the perfect answer.
After many hours of research and development
followed by trial and error tests, we succeeded in designing the classic Castle Bay
dip molded iron cover,? said Phil Brewer, Director of Engineering for the Sinclair
and Rush companies.
?Driving the design of this product was the simple fact that we
wanted
to expand the use of our dip molding facilities at a time when there was a growing
quest to spend leisure time on the golf course.
?
Today, Castle Bay iron covers remain the best selling iron cover in the world.

Through the years, enhancements to the material formulation has lead to greater
quality in durability and flexibility while maintaining the great design elements
so important to the functionality.
Clear packaging allows the golfer to view the
product to encourage his vision of how the covers will fit and look on his valuable
golf clubs.

About Castle Bay:
Castle Bay is the first retail division of the Sinclair and Rush Company, which
also includes StockCap, GripWorks, VisiPak, VynaFlex, and Soffware.
Beginning as
somewhat of a side project, Castle Bay engineers developed the iron covers into
what has become the best selling iron cover in the world.
This is due, in part, to
manufacturing and selling operations in multiple countries.

Groder & Greene Release Free Jazz Album on Latham Records
New York-Free or modern progressive jazz can take many forms but for seasoned
artists like trumpet /flugel horn player Brian Groder and pianist Burton Greene the
outcome is always definitive and enduring
New York, NY, November 05, 2009 -- New York-Free or modern progressive jazz can
take many forms but for seasoned artists like trumpet /flugel horn player Brian
Groder and pianist Burton Greene the outcome is always definitive and enduring.

On their first collaboration for Latham Records the duo?s album Groder & Greene hit
the shelves on October 1, 2009 after nearly two years prior to the original
recording date.
Good things come with time and jazz listeners will be rewarded with
their patience by receiving a classic rendering of the free form style of jazz
popularized in the 1950?s by such icons as John Coltrane, Sun Ra and others.

The inspirational improvisations of pianist Burton Greene, alto saxophonist Rob
Brown, bassist Alan Lane and drummer Ray Sage help Brian Groder to take the music
to another level.

Equally fluent on trumpet and flugelhorn, Brian Groder is a venerated composer,
trumpeter, and ensemble leader that has been cited as one of the most original jazz
voices of his generation.
Groder?s penchant for working with other composers gives
his brand of modern progressive jazz distinctive richness and depth when the
collaborations reach their fruition during a performance.
Fortunately this
particular group of songs was captured during the heat of spontaneity created by
the artists in the studio.

?Stimulating fresh jazz with an eye to the future but a strong awareness of the
past.
? - Jazz Journal
The experience of Greene as a leader in the free jazz movement of the 60?s is
immeasurable and his influence resides in the color and overall flow of each
composition.
Groder and Greene complement each other beautifully on the release and
allow the rest of the musicians to contribute in equal measures making Groder &
Greene a true partnership of musicians allowing the voice of jazz improvisation to
be heard loud and clear throughout the recording.

Visit the Brian Groder website for more information and updates on his most recent
recordings.
