UPDATE: Governor’s Office Says Trucker Tax Break Might Be Repealed

by Jamie Price under Business News

LITTLE ROCK – Gov. Mike Beebe and House Speaker Robert Moore will try to repeal a tax exemption for truckers after the state’s trucking lobby pulled its support for a 5-cent diesel tax hike meant to pay for the exemption and finance highway improvements.

The tax exemption and the diesel tax hike were parts of a deal reached between the Arkansas Trucking Association and state lawmakers. The association promised to lobby voters to pass a 5-cent increase to the state diesel tax.

But the trucking association’s request not to have a vote on the tax hike meant the deal was off, said Moore , a spokesman for Beebe.

“It’s really simple,” Moore said in an interview. “The funds for the exemption that were passed were to come out of the revenues that were going to be generated by the diesel tax.”

Moore said he would try to repeal the exemption during next year’s fiscal session, which is ordinarily limited to budget matters.

Feds, George’s Settle Suit Over Purchase of Tyson Plant

by Jamie Price under Business News

HARRISONBURG, Va. — The U.S. Department of Justice said Thursday that it has settled an anti-trust lawsuit challenging George’s Inc.’s purchase of a Tyson Foods poultry plant in Harrisonburg.

The department announced the proposed settlement in a news release. It had filed the lawsuit in May in federal court in Harrisonburg.

The lawsuit claimed that the sale would reduce the ability of chicken growers in the Shenandoah Valley to receive competitive prices for their services.

Under the proposed settlement, Springdale-based George’s would make capital improvements to the plant to increase its production. The Department of Justice said that would resolve competitive concerns because it would increase the number of chickens processed by the plant.

“The proposed settlement enhances the competitive viability and increases the production of the Harrisonburg poultry processing plant, which translates into more opportunities to grow and process poultry,” said Christine Varney, assistant attorney general in charge of the Department of Justice’s Antitrust Division.

How To Get More Facebook Fans With A Facebook Reveal Tab Or Fan Gate

by Kelly Long under Business News

To be honest, I’m a little bit late to the Facebook and Twitter game when it comes to using social media with my online store. And the reason I’ve waited such a long time before applying these services to my business is because I was never fully convinced that it was a good use of my time.

After all, I have many tasks on my plate and very limited resources so I have to prioritize my time accordingly. But lately, I’ve been hearing way too many success stories with Twitter and Facebook to ignore them any longer.

For example according to Search Engine Land, many ecommerce companies have seen huge increases in sales and traffic after implementing Facebook Likes for their websites. Here are a few examples.

  • Levi’s jeans found that referral traffic increased 40X after implementing the Like button
  • Giantnerd.com’s revenues increased over 100% after implementing the Like button
  • American Eagle implemented Like and found that Facebook visitors spent 57% more money than non-Facebook referred visitors.
  • Tea C

Oil Giants Battle Over 5-Inch Lizard

by Jamie Price under Business News

To hear some politicians and lobbyists tell it, the fate of New Mexico’s oil industry rests on the fate of a five-inch lizard. The federal government is considering listing the dunes sagebrush lizard as an endangered species, the Wall Street Journal reports, and that spooks the industry, because Sceloporous arenicolus is capable of surviving in only one habitat: the oil-rich dunes of New Mexico and west Texas. One industry group calls the area “the most prolific oil-producing region in onshore America.”

Some companies are already paying for conservation efforts, even as they fight the move. “The future of our state’s economy and livelihood of so many employers … are at stake,” New Mexico’s governor argued in a letter to regulators. But conservationists say the concerns are overblown; the lizard lives on about 600,000 of the 11 million acres in question. “They are total
