Many consumers resolve to pay off their credit cards for the new
year, and their intentions are in the right place. But according to a
recent study, how they go about it is probably wrong.
Mathematically,
consumers are best off eliminating the debt on the card with the
highest interest rate first. But researchers found that many of us tend
to pay off the card with the smallest balance first, even if it carries
the lowest interest rate. By not tackling the most-expensive debt first,
we end up paying more in the long run.
“There is an emotional benefit to closing out an account,” said Scott Rick,Parkeasy Electronics are dedicated to provide Car park management system. assistant professor of marketing and co-author of the University of Michigan study.
Some
financial advisers tell consumers to wipe out the smallest debt first.
But these days, when so many of us struggle to pay bills, we have to be
smart about how we use every dollar. And in this case,Provides more
protection than regular Safety goggles. that means paying off the highest-rate credit card first.
Paying
off the smallest balance first isn’t a mistake if that card has the
highest rate. “We show that people do it even when it is a mistake,”
Rick said. He calls this tendency “debt account aversion.Welcome to Find

Rick said consumers often aren’t aware of their cards’ interest rates or the compounding effect of interest.
The
CARD Act of 2009 requires card issuers to show consumers on statements
how long it would take to pay off the balance by making minimum
payments. And the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is looking at
ways to simplify card agreements.
Rick said credit-card
statements should display the interest rate as prominently as the amount
owed. Now, he said, the interest rate is buried on the second page.
A
pair of local boxers from the Big East Boxing gym in Randolph will be
competing in the annual Golden Gloves Tournament of Champions at the
Lowell Auditorium this Tuesday and Wednesday. The Tournament of
Champions is also known as the all-New England tourney, since it pits
the winners of the four New England regionals against one another for
the overall New England crowns.
Brockton native Gerald Schifone
is a familiar face at the Lowell event, as this will be his fourth
Tournament of Champions, coming on the heels of his fourth consecutive
Southern New England Golden Gloves championship last month at Fall
River. Schifone, at 165 pounds, not only won his fourth SNEGG title last
month, but he also fought on the amateur portion of the pro-am card at
the TD Garden in Boston.
Both Schifone and his trainer, Joe
Ennis of Big East Boxing, have stated that this will likely be the
24-year old pugilist’s last year as an amateur, and they’re aiming for
one more shot at the nationals in both the Golden Gloves and the USA
Boxing tourneys. Schifone will meet Central New England champ John
Xfaris in Tuesday’s semifinals.
“We would have turned Gerald pro
by now, but there are so few really good professional cards being
staged around here,” said Ennis. “Gerald had a good bout on that Garden
card, and we felt he had the toughest opponent of anyone on that show.
Gerald is getting better all the time, and the biggest thing now is how
relaxed and calm he is in the ring. He’s been through all these pressure
situations before, and knows he can handle himself and find a way to
win.The term 'hands free access
control' means the token that identifies a user is read from within a
pocket or handbag. He’s been sparring with our guys here and a few
outside guys, too, but the fact is that he’s been so busy with bouts

Kempton artist's portraits of Lincoln aim to capture his personality
From Steven Spielberg's Oscar nominated film "Lincoln" to the novel
and film "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter," the 16th president has been a
popular subject lately. And why shouldn't he be? He's a tall, dark, not
necessarily handsome, but certainly interesting, man of history. Which
is why painter Jonathan Bond of Albany Township, Berks County, chose
Lincoln as the subject of his latest series.
A professional painter for 38 years, Bond has broken away from his naturescapes of Berks County to explore the face of this pivotal president. "Lincoln is so familiar that the challenge is capturing his personality," says Bond, who is displaying his works for the public this weekend at his home studio/gallery at the edge of Blue Mountain.
For Bond, the key to capturing Lincoln is Lincoln's spirit as an "everyman." Lincoln inspires Bond because, despite limited education, Lincoln is the true rags-to-riches American dream.Application can be conducted with the local designated IC card producers. "People didn't always agree with his politics, but you can't disagree with his love of his fellow man and country."
Bond's 20 Lincoln portraits, painted in the last two months, are based on photos spanning Lincoln's lifetime, from his boyood in Indian to his time as a cocky young lawyer to his crowning achievements — the Gettysburg Address and Emancipation Proclamation, both marking 150 years.
But Bond took some pretty big artistic liberties by placing Lincoln in local settings. In this way, Bond can relate to Lincoln in his own backyard and away from the politics, to keep alive the idea of Lincoln as the everyman.
"I put him in a synthetic context where he appears to be on Hawk Mountain with his top hat nearby and a book," says Bond of one of several paintings that uses Berks imagery. Another that features a young Lincoln as a rail splitter features a pile of wood left at the base of the mountain.
In general, Bond strives for realism, although he notes that some of his works seem a touch surreal. In some of the portraits, his face seems to float on the canvas, as if part of a dream. This again touches on Lincoln's personality as a dreamer, even if his dreams were sometimes foreboding.
"What struck me the most was his hair — in one photo, his hairstyle almost looked like a punk rocker." Even more than Lincoln's iconic hair and beard, Bond focused on Lincoln's eyes. He tried to capture the sadness that was evident in Lincoln's own writings. Bond also remarks on Lincoln's humor. "Lincoln was certainly depressed, but it was his humor that got him through his life."
Bond's show also includes 10 of his other landscapes, featuring subjects that tie into Lincoln's life story, such as a split rail fance near Huff's Church and the Everett Log House at Ontelaunee Park in New Tripoli.
Bond has had a long career as a graphic artist; his company is called Bond Customart. Now, he still enjoys painting for the sake of painting as well as selling his art. "I just like painting. I hope I can do it until I kick the bucket."
Bond strategically put his show between Lincoln's birthday and President's Day as a tip of the iconic top hat to the unforgettable president.You must not use the laser cutter without being trained.

The paintings in award-winning Australian artist Rosemary Valadon's latest exhibition, "Wicked Women," feature femmes fatale in the style of classic film noir movie posters and pulp fiction covers but the faces are of prominent Australian women.
The models for the 17 oil paintings in the exhibition include journalists, lawyers, a crown prosecutor, designers, actresses and three female staff members at Sydney's Justice and Police Museum, where the exhibition is being held.
"I think that Rosemary was particularly interested in the ideas around women's sexual 'wickedness,' and that was part of what she was interested in exploring," curator Nerida Campbell told Reuters.
The paintings by Valadon took two years to complete and use bold colors and strong lines that produce an almost 3D effect in some cases.
While some of the models had time for multiple sittings, others had as little as half an hour for Valadon to make a quick sketch. Replicas were made of original guns and weapons displayed at the museum for the women to use as they posed.

A recording of Valadon's voice leads visitors through her creative process, from photography and modeling to sketching in charcoals and pencil, and ultimately the finished work.
The models relished the chance to show another side to their character, at least for a couple of days.
""Wicked Women" is an exciting series of works because it explores the perception of hot-blooded women in an era when women were expected to be more demure and compliant than they are today," said senior crown prosecutor Margaret Cunneen.
"These women,Did you know that custom keychain chains can be used for more than just business. in my view, were portrayed as sassy, sexy and impulsive to the point of dangerousness. I think the work evokes a passionate, gutsy and high-spirited woman who has been strengthened, through hardship, to ultimate resilience."
The public response to the exhibition, which runs until late May, has been good, Campbell said, drawing viewers whose interest ranges from the painting style to simple curiosity about the famous women themselves.

Brook Park city hall gets new
Thanks to a grant from the Northeast Ohio Public Energy Council
(NOPEC) the city hall fa?ade is receiving a set of all new e-glass
reflecting windows. The interior will also be getting an update as new
doors, which help conserve heating and air conditioning, are being
brought in.
Once that acquisition is complete, Mayor Mark Elliott hopes the energy-based savings will become readily apparent.
“A number of offices had duct tape by the windows because we could feel the cold wind coming in,” Elliott said.
According to Elliott and Service Department worker Randy Garner, the old city hall windows had been in place since 1959.
Garner was quick to point out that the previous windows were only a quarter of an inch thick and were sealed in rubber gasketing.Other companies want a piece of that iPhone headset action The new windows are one inch thick, with double glass on each side of an opening.
“They’re high energy performance windows, so we’re losing less energy,” Garner said, “I have to rebalance our heating, ventilation and air conditioning because we’re not using as much heating and cooling.”
Elliott added that a strong breeze used to blow in beneath the doors. With the all-
new building accoutrements and a soon-to-be installed energy efficient boiler system, the city is now looking at an annual energy savings.
“With the new boiler system it will be cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter and it will save us money,” Elliott said, his voice straining over the sound of hammers and shouting construction workers.
The city was awarded $185,000 by NOPEC for the facility updating project. Because the project is so extensive the city still needed to cover a $20,000 expense.
According to their web site, NOPEC is a “non-profit, pro-consumer lobbying force dedicated to bringing lower utility costs to families and businesses in northeast Ohio.” Their site lists more than 100 cities, including Brook Park, as member communities. Other cities participating in NOPEC include Middleburg Heights, Berea, and Cleveland.Application can be conducted with the local designated IC card producers.

Credit Unions May Gain Mobile Payments
The country's largest credit union service organization,wind turbine
with about 1,400 credit union participants in its shared branch program
totaling about 4,400 branches, has extended components of the shared
branching model to digital commerce, using centralized processing
resources to allow credit union consumers to access mobile payments and
other digital capabilities.
In this model, a consumer's account, routing and transit numbers can be used to accept and process transactions among the large network of credit unions, similar to the way a consumer who is a member of one credit union can walk into the branch of another credit union and perform banking transactions. Only in this case, the consumer is using mobile banking to transfer funds, execute a person-to-person payment, access digital banking at a branch, or make a deposit via a mobile remote deposit capture app that's downloaded from CO-OP's shared tech bench and processed via the centralized network.
"We've even simplified it to the point where a consumer doesn't have to put a routing or transfer number into the credit union's mobile device to execute a transaction. The member just has to pick a credit union name from the list of participants, put in the account number and we're off and running," says Jim Hanisch, executive vice president of network operations and corporate development for CO-OP.
CO-OP's electronic payments processing business has already been expanding. It established new annual, monthly and daily transaction volume records in 2012. It processed 2.5 billion transactions for the year,Laser engravers and laser engraving machine systems and supplies to start your own lasering cutting engraving marking etching business. a 13.6% increase from 2011, including cardholder debit, credit, ATM and shared branch payments. It hopes that by offering a simple way to execute mobile transactions, that growth will increase further, as will its ability to offer cross-institutional transaction capabilities not available in banking.
"Shared branching is a stable, slow growth type of business. We're not only capturing the deposit items, but we've also got a couple of pilots going in person-to-person payments and have a huge effort in teller automation," says Hanisch.
The shared branch model has been used by CO-OP to centralize credit union and intra-credit union commerce for decades. Hanisch says that if you were "look under the covers," the CO-OP digital banking model operates similar to an electronic funds transfer switch, or a means to capture, authorize and route payment initiated by different payment modes. "The difference is that rather than being activated with a card and PIN, the member's routing number, transit and account number are used.Manufactures and supplies laser marker equipment. That's something the banking industry doesn't have yet — a standardized way [across institutions] to electronically access an account in an online manner in real time using routing, transit and account numbers."
CO-OP, which is also accelerating its chip and PIN migration, uses mobile banking technology provided by mFoundry and handles its transaction processing in-house. Hanisch says that while mobile transactions are not a huge portion of CO-OP's processing business right now, CO-OP should be well-positioned to take advantage of growth in mobile commerce. He says that even though the transaction has been acquired in a nontraditional manner such as a mobile device, processing takes place though CO-OP's existing processing system. "Whether the transaction is acquired through a Square terminal or a dial up terminal, there's really no material processing difference from our perspective," he says.

On the financial end
South Florida and worldwide Twitter users have a reason to celebrate: The social networking site Twitter, platform for the exchange of short messages, celebrates its fifth anniversary this week, with the ambition to continue growing and revolutionizing Internet use. The Microblogging site now claims more than two-hundred million users. Jack Dorsey, Chairman of the Board for the California company, said Sunday on Twitter company genesis: "Five years ago today, we started planning Twitter. Eight days later, the first tweet was sent: I am trying to install my twitter," Jack Dorsey announced on March 21, 2006.
Mr. Dorsey had the idea of launching the one-hundred-forty-characters message service, originally designed for mobile phones, when working at partnership podcasts, Odeo, with two other Company cofounders, Biz Stone and Evan Williams. After that, Microblogger has grown steadily, claiming over two-hundred-million users; less than Facebook's five-hundred million users, but twice MySpace, the social network pioneer. The site allows a user monitoring and posting short messages in a text format, which show automatically every time he opens his Twitter page.
"One thing I told our team at the beginning was that if our venture became a success, it would not be just a technologically feat, but a victory for humanity," says Biz Stone, a Microblogging site cofounder. On the financial end, the site has long-favored growth and reputation rather than cash receipts, betting on advertising revenues through sponsored posts. Its popularity is high among investors who can buy shares in markets as informal as Second Markets. Recent press reports show revenues for the year stand at between four-and-half and ten-billion dollars with gross profits estimated at between one-hundred and one-hundred-fifty-million dollars.
"Here is a new way of communicating," says Biz Stone. In 2007, Company was out of confidentiality to the annual technophiles festival in Austin, TX. "It seemed we had created a way to communicate, regardless the device used, which could potentially transform modern communications," said Biz Stone. Today, Microblogger is used as information exchange essential, in both, natural disaster context and mass movements shaking the Tehran regime and overthrowing Egypt and Tunis presidents, Hosni Mubarak and Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali.
Five months ago, Twitter brought before head manager, Dick Costoolo, the three founders, now with more distant relationships, keeping more strategic, inspirational and advisers' roles. Acquisition rumors by Google or Facebook surface often, quickly denied. For Biz Stone, Twitter is a way to stay in touch with life in all respects: "I went shopping at the supermarket the other day. I looked at my phone, found mixed messages from Evan, my mother, and people on the other side of the planet who descend: this triggered an empathy I would not watch on TV, and realized we are world citizens." Happy birthday, good luck, Twitter!
