Jump rope in between high rep/low weight sets of whatever. Just kee your heart rate up. Running sucks and is inefficient. You can also use a rowing machine; very efficient expenditure of calories and full body.
Don't focus on single muscle groups, it's ineffective. Target each group and mix in full body workouts like deadlifts/squats.
If you're looking to keep muscle on while losing fat, keep your protein intake to about 1g per lb of body weight (you definitely don't want a "protein deficit"...ever - you want an overall "calorie deficit"), keep your carbs low and focus on only healthy fats. Also, cut out any unnecessary sugars - alcohol, sweets, soda.
Also, no one here can tell you what's best for you. The best way to hit goals is to browse some real forums and educate yourself on weightlifting, weight loss ,and general nutrition. You need to know why you're doing certain excercises or eating/avoiding certain foods.

Also everyone's body reacts differently to certain forms of exercise. You can gain knowledge from reading books, but you also will have to follow what works best for your own body.
