According to the National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders “only 30 to 40 percent ever fully recover” from the disease. The study goes on to say that 20 percent of all anorexia patients die from complications related to their eating disorder.”

PPP: 2009: The Year of the Mouse

Embracing technology can change an artist or gallery’s business overnight.

Steeped in tradition, yet always fresh, the art world is a snapshot of the world today. But what does it mean to be an artist or gallery owner in 2009? Quite simply, the year 2009 is a time when we all must become experts at business efficiency. How can we do more with less? How can we control our spending while increasing our reach and our revenues?

The art world is ever-changing, and it’s important to acknowledge those resources that enhance and change the landscape of our industry and determine the success or failure of artists and galleries. Websites, online shopping, inventory tracking, point-of-sale (POS) technology, customer relationship management—they all play a role in how the art world takes its shape in this day and age. Those that are successful understand that it is mission-critical to know how embracing technology can change an artist or gallery’s business overnight.

Community Banks Go After Bigger Rivals With High-Yield Checking

“I didn’t have to do anything special to get the rate,” said Powell, 34, an information technology engineer at Dell Inc., who switched to United Heritage from Charlotte, North Carolina-based Wachovia Corp. “I just did what I normally do and got rewarded.”

High-yield checking accounts offered by community banks are attracting new customers, according to December data compiled by BancVue, an Austin-based company that has helped 460 institutions nationwide implement reward checking and savings programs. The accounts grew by 531,205 in 2008, almost triple the number a year earlier, said Dan Mahoney, a spokesman for BancVue.

clipper's remarks: With community banks paying up to 6% interest while most major banks are paying nothing it’s really not surprising to see community banks emerge as the safer, preferred investment channel. Look into Checking Finder (https://www.checkingfinder.com/). This search tool will find community banks in your area paying up to 6% reward checking. Just type in your zip code.

Higher yields on short-term deposits are certainly fueling interest in community banks. Month-to-month applications on CheckingFinder.com, a website that connects consumers with community financial institutions offering high-yield checking accounts, jumped 14 per cent from July to August, 46 per cent from August to September and 53 per cent from September to October. A small sampling of applicants on the site indicated nearly seven out of 10 were moving their funds to community financial institutions from large banks.
