Icahn increases stake in Chesapeake

Could billionaire investor Carl Icahn be looking to further shake things up at Chesapeake Energy Corp.?
Icahn, already a major shareholder in Chesapeake, now owns 8.9 percent of the natural gas producer, Reuters reports.
Icahn previously had a 7.56 percent ownership in Chesapeake (NYSE: CHK).
Since initially investing in the company in May, Icahn has appointed four new members of the Chesapeake board of directors in an attempt to turnaround the company. CNBC reports that part of this shake-up so far has involved shifting away from natural gas production in favor of oil and natural gas liquids.
Chesapeake has also announced plans to sell off infrastructure and assets and pay down heavy debt loads.
Oklahoma City-based Chesapeake had been setting its sights on South Texas' prolific Eagle Ford Shale region and has a 100-employee hub in San Antonio to coordinate those efforts. It remains to be seen what role the Eagle Ford Shale will play in the company's evolving long-term strategy.

Gilmanton police: Man had two kids in car during chase
Sgt. Matt Currier said Sean Mulcahy, 41, of 15 Spaulding Road was arrested Saturday after refusing to stop for police sirens and blue lights and nearly hitting Currier's cruiser. The pursuit, which unfolded over more than three hours, focused on an approximately two-mile section of town near the Rainbo Club housing development.
Currier said police had been alerted by a caller from Alton just after 1 p.m. to a possible drunk driver in a 2003 Mercury Sable in the area. A car matching that description passed by on Places Mill Road, continuing onto Crystal Lake Road. Currier said he recognized the driver as Mulcahy, who is "known to (local police) extensively" because of his driving record.
Finally, police spotted Mulcahy in another car as it drove along near the Rainbo Club housing development on Crystal Lake Road about 4:30 p.m.
Mulcahy, who does not have a valid license because of past driving convictions, had alcohol on his breath when he was arrested, Currier said.

located in the upper Los Cristianos, a short walk from hour hotel, we found a good oriental restaurant. It really stood out with fantastic good Food, and excellent service. Seeting both inside and outside. Highly recommendable, in a quite street.
A bit more expensive that the plastic patio chair Chinese but you get what you pay for. Nice restaurant staff all look the part and the food amazing
Love this restaurant the food is amazing lovely menu lots of choices lovely atmosphere did not dislike any thing
I am a regular visitor to this area of Tenerife and have been meaning to go here for a while after hearing good things about it. Four of us went fairly early (7.30) on a Thursday evening. We were seated inside by choice. The outside terrace was around 40% and the inside around 15% occupied when we arrived. Drinks orders...
you will not find a better Chinese in Tenerife,great attention to detail and customer service,reasonably priced and the best Chinese food I've eaten.Big hello to owner Tommy and see you soon mate
Overseas generally provide great tasting food, but this time there was an exception, the salt and peppered ribs were greasy and quite tough. I would expect the meat on ribs to fall off the bone.
However, saying that the chicken and sweetcorn soup and the hot and sour soup were very good.
The main course dishes, chicken with basil and...
This is a lovely restaurant, so much so that we had a job to get a table last night, which I think is recommendation itself. We had a banquet meal for 4 and it was delicious. Everything was cooked from fresh so you wait a little longer but it is well worth it. Attentive and friendly staff and reasonably priced....
We went here purely on the trip advisor reviews and were not disappointed.
Staff are very polite and friendly, food was amazing, best Chinese food we have ever had, all cooked from fresh and to order , all hot and tasty.
We had 3x starters tempura vegetables (large portion), Malaysian samoas, Miso soup all were amazing, followed by teriyaki chicken...
8 of us visited this place, 3 of us want a set meal , advertised for 2, but wouldn't make any compromise as most establishments would.
They use far too much salt for my tastes, left my mouth numb for the rest of the day, saltiness masked a fairly bland taste sensation.
Service was not good, just short of throwing...
Had a banquet for two (2) it was excellent value tasted good and staff were efficient and friendly. Very busy but still didn't have yo wait too long it was worth the wait anyway

One Tank Trip: Shady Maple Smorgasbord
Updated On: Jan 15 2014 05:20:45 PM CST
Where do you start? It's not hard to fill a plate. It's just hard to decide what to eat first at the Shady Maple Smorgasbord in Lancaster County. Be sure to bring your appetite.
"It's the biggest smorgasbord you've ever seen" said Elwood Martin, president, Shady Maple Companies, who challenges you to find a bigger one. "It's legendary. It's a family tradition. That still doesn't tell the story of how big it is."
It's a tradition that started for Martin when he was just 13, picking potatoes for Shady Maple owners Marvin and Miriam Weaver.
But for the beginning of it all, you have to go back to Miriam's parents, Henry and Edna Martin, in 1963. They sold produce at a roadside stand under the shade of the maple trees in their front yard.
Their daughter. Miriam and son-in-law. Marvin. took over the stand in their early 20s and turned it into a store.
About every two years, Marvin would find something he wanted to add.
"The vision wasn't for massive size. He just kept wanting to offer more," Martin said.
More is what you'll get. The buffet bars are lined up as far as the eye can see, but it's not just about quantity. Marvin's theory is every meal is important.
"The recipes and the quality of the recipes, using good quality ingredients has been a major factor," Martin said.
In 2013, Shady Maple said it served 1,391,699 meals.
Filling the buffets is no easy task since almost everything is made from scratch with a Pennsylvania Dutch touch.
In the second part of our series next Wednesday at 5:30 p.m., we'll go take you into the kitchen for a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to feed thousands of people every day.

Beer, Wine & Spirit Drinker's Guide to Colorado
Are you a fan of the Beerdrinker's Guide to Colorado? Mike Laur and his team have long provided us with a great guide to finding the best breweries across the state along with a rich package of coupons. Now they have produced a really great spiral-bound handbook that covers all the breweries AND adds distilleries and wineries. Foldout maps are included for each region of the state. The guide comes packaged with the original (updated) folded map and the coupon package with over $300 of free stuff!
The suggested retail price for the trio package is $27.95. You can get yours for $25 at the All Colorado Beer Festival merchandise booth. Think Christmas gifts for all you friends and family.
ACBF Nominated for Award
The Culteral Office of the Pikes Peak Region (COPPeR) annually holds a business and arts luncheon and awards ceremony. This year the All Colorado Beer Festival was nominated for the Philanthropy Award because we provide significant financial support to the arts community. (ACBF is the single largest donor to THEATREWORKS.) Only three organizations were selected as finalists for this award: All Colorado Beer Festival, Downtown Partnership, and Sam & Kathy Guadagnoli. We congratulate the Guadagnolis who were selected as the winner of the Philanthropy Award and feel honored to be in the company of the two other nominees for this award.
As most of you know, the ACBF was created explicitly for the purpose of raising money for local nonprofit organizations (see Beneficiaries). Almost 50% of the price of every ticket is donated. No member of the ACBF organization receives any pay for their year long effort to put on the festival. However, the organization could not have the impact it does without all of you who purchase tickets to the event. THANK YOU!!
Afternoon VIP Tickets SOLD OUT
The afternoon VIP tickets are sold out. If you want to sample the extra beers in the VIP Zone, get into the festival session an hour early, and sit down to an appetizer and beer sampling, you will want to grab some of the remaining VIP tickets for the evening session.

Stenhouse scores Sprint Cup Rookie of the Year honors
Nov 18, 2013, 5:55 PM EDT
Performance-wise, Ricky Stenhouse Jr.'s inaugural Sprint Cup season was a far cry from the back-to-back championship years in the Nationwide Series that preceded it. But it was still enough to earn him the 2013 Rookie of the Year title in NASCAR's top division.
"All in all, it was a huge learning experience," Stenhouse said in summing up his season. "[I'm] thankful we made it through, it's behind us now. We can move on to next year, look on improving every spot at every track that we can in the final points standings."
The Mississippi native didn't log his first Top-10 result of the year until finishing 10th in the regular season finale at Richmond in September. However, he managed to get through without suffering a DNF, netting an average finish of 18.9 en route to a 19th-place showing in the standings.
By contrast, Stenhouse's Rookie of the Year rival and girlfriend, Danica Patrick, had what one would charitably call a "character-building" debut year in Cup.
After finishing eighth in the season-opening Daytona 500, the former IndyCar star was unable to turn in another Top-10 finish for the remainder of the schedule. Poor qualifying (average start: 30.1) didn't help matters and on race day, it wasn't much better for Patrick, who had an average finish of 26.1. Additionally, she had five DNFs.
For his part, Stenhouse said that he and Patrick didn't particularly focus on their rookie battle outside of a light bit of joking over the situation. He also maintained that both of them learned a lot as Cup freshmen.
"We both wanted to just finish as best we could each and every week," he said. "Then ultimately, in the final points standings of the whole field, I was shooting for a Top-15 [finish] – didn't quite get that.
"But all in all, I think we both had decent years…We both have a lot to work on throughout the off-season and through next year."
In that regard, Stenhouse said he needed to improve on learning the right adjustments to make during practice in preparation for the races.
"We still struggled with that a little bit," he said. "But then again, I know that's what we need to work on. We got our qualifying efforts better. We start the race a lot better; we just have to finish it off.
"Next year, that's the biggest thing, just finishing the races kind of where we start them."
Stenhouse's best result this year was a third-place effort at Talladega last month.

Difference engine: A head of steam
Science and technology
SIR - Far from the rosy picture that is set out in the letter from the Italian finance minister, Tommaso Padoa-Schioppa, the original article in The Economist that he was complaining about is closer to reality.
It is generally accepted by Italy's citizens, its media and even by Mr Prodi in numerous speeches that the quality of life is bad and worsening. Despite the promises of the general election campaigns two years ago, taxation and price increases are deluding everyone.

Local News
Lt. Gov Sheila Simon Supports Medical MarijuanaCHICAGO (AP) - Lt. Gov. Sheila Simon says she supports a bill that would allow the medical use of marijuana in Illinois.
Simon told The Associated Press Sunday her initial reaction wasn't in support but after hearing from people with illnesses she changed her mind. She says it's a tightly-restricted plan.
The proposal allows physicians to prescribe marijuana to patients with specific terminal illnesses or medical conditions. It's passed the House and awaits a Senate vote. Gov. Pat Quinn hasn't indicated if he'll sign it.
Supporters say marijuana can relieve continual pain without triggering detrimental side effects of other prescription drugs. Opponents say the program could encourage recreational use, especially among teenagers. The Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police and the Illinois Sheriffs' Association are opponents.
The bill is HB1. More information is available online: http://www.ilga.gov

Three additions to Kansas City roster. Aaron Wilson
The Kansas City Chiefs announced three new additions to their roster.
Defensive back Husain Abdullah, linebacker Joe Mays and offensive lineman Jeff Linkenbach have all agreed to contracts with the franchise.
"We are excited to be able to bring back Husain Abdullah as well as add Joe Mays and Jeff Linkenbach to our roster," Chiefs General Manager John Dorsey said. "All three of these men will add depth and talent to our team as we continue to build for the 2014 season."
Abdullah was a member of the Chiefs in 2013 after four years with the Vikings. In his five-year career, Abdullah has 146 tackles (108 solo), 2.5 sacks (-25.5 yards), 17 pass deflections and five interceptions.
Mays spent the 2013 season with the Texans after being with the Broncos the previous three years, which followed a two-year stint with the Eagles. He's totaled 194 tackles (141 solo), 18 tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks (-10.5 yards), six pass deflections and one forced fumble during his career.
Linkenbach started 33 of the 60 games he appeared in with the Colts from 2010-2013. He's versatile enough to play both guard and tackle. He was a four-year right tackle at the University of Cincinnati.

Are you a part of the new 'digital elite' travel class?
Published Date
The increasing use of smart technology like phones and tablets in travel planning has spawned a new class who are much more likely to identify themselves as happy, fun, sociable and healthy than their non-digital counterparts.
That's according to a new report which surveyed more than 1,250 US households and their travel habits and coined a new name for the emerging class: the digital elite.
Produced by MMGY Global/Harrison Group, the "2013 Portrait of Digital Travelers" found that smartphone usage among active travelers nearly tripled in 2 years from 23% in 2011 to 62% in 2013.
That figure spikes even more impressively when it comes to tablets: over the same period, the use of tablets grew from 7 percent in 2011 to 43 percent this year to represent a six-fold increase.
Overall, the report paints a portrait of a new travel demographic more likely than their less-connected counterparts to seek relaxation, booze-fueled fun, nookie and sleep and to catch up on their reading.
They're better traveled, taking more international trips than those who are less connected, and spend nearly $1,000 more on their vacation.
But these findings should come as little surprise given that those who own smartphones and tablets are also more likely to have more disposable income and who can afford to own a tablet, often a tertiary piece of digital machinery to their phone and PC or laptop.
The digital elite can also be defined as being more active on social media networks like Facebook (81% versus 70% of less-connected users), Twitter, YouTube, Google+ and Pinterest.
Nearly half of this new class also have children who exert a major influence on their travel plans and destinations, say researchers.
And when it comes to personality, the report finds the digital elite see themselves as happier (82 percent identified themselves as happy compared to 72 percent of those with fewer digital devices), more confident, more sociable, healthier and more fit.
