| UPI NewsTrack Business - Investors Business Daily Posted: 05 Dec 2009 07:31 AM PST Dec 05, 2009 (UPI via COMTEX) -- WASHINGTON, Dec. 5 (UPI) -- The holiday season is one of the best times of the year for job-seekers to contact potential employers, U.S. business experts say. Contrary to popular perceptions there's no use sending out resumes in December when employers are taking holiday vacations, experts say it's actually a good time to make initial contacts because a lot of hiring is done later in January, CNN reported. "There is a certain pattern to when companies hire in general," Rob Saam, a senior vice president at outplacement firm Lee Hecht Harrison, told the U.S. broadcaster. "There is more hiring in January than December, but the thing about a job search is that it's a process so you should start looking before that." "Job seekers shouldn't let the holidays slow their job search," agreed Carolyn Thompson of the Washington boutique staffing firm CMCS. "There are still the same number of jobs open, but actually less candidates looking because people are busy gearing up for the holidays." PALO ALTO, Calif., Dec. 5 (UPI) -- U.S. computing firm Apple has agreed to buy a four-year-old streaming music provider, sources say. Quoting an unnamed person with knowledge of the deal, The New York Times reported Saturday Apple has struck to deal to purchase Lala, of Palo Alto, Calif., a Web site that allows users to store their digital music purchases on its servers and then "stream" the songs over the Internet from any computer or handheld device. The newspaper said the move indicates Apple is branching out from its music distribution model of requiring customers to download digital copies of songs onto computers and then "syncing" them into mobile devices such as iPods or iPhones. Apple wouldn't comment on the report, but David Goldberg, head of SurveyMonkey and the former general manager of Yahoo Music, told the Times, "I am sure Apple is watching streaming music, the traction of Pandora, of course, and other streaming applications on the iPhone. There's a legitimate question here: Why should people have to download music?" Citing an unnamed person "with knowledge of the deal," the Times said Lala executives approached Apple after concluding their prospects for turning a profit in the short term were not good. WASHINGTON, Dec. 5 (UPI) -- Financial regulators have closed six banks, bringing the total of shuttered U.S. institutions to 130 so far this year, officials said.

| The Business Anarchist announces the first in a Series of 1 day UK ... - PRLog (free press release) Posted: 05 Dec 2009 07:09 AM PST PR Log (Press Release) – Dec 05, 2009 – The Business Anarchist
The Business Anarchist, announces the first in a series of straight-talking, pull-no-punches, one day business seminars. "Surviving in Business - and how to Start" is to be held in central London on Sunday January 17, 2010. Aimed at entrepreneurs who are running or about to start their own businesses, "Surviving in Business - and how to Start" is far removed from the world of academic theories, evangelistic concepts and trendy buzzwords. Instead, it is grounded in the real world of 2010, complete with its 'difficult' "Surviving in Business - and how to Start" is presented by The Business Anarchist – nickname for the highly respected Charles Farran, MD of both Amanda J Molyneux & Company Ltd (international banking and formation specialist) and Chartmore & Company Ltd (international escrow agents). During the past 20 years Charles has built up an enviable reputation in the world of business structuring and restructuring, and has helped thousands of entrepreneurs to establish and run successful businesses. "Why am I called The Business Anarchist?" asks Farran. "Simple! A complete and utter distrust of banks and politicians, and despair at the absence of ethical standards in business today. My mission is simple: to equip entrepreneurs with the real knowledge and information that will help them start and run their companies for their benefit, not the banks and the tax man!" Within the world of private business education, Farran has a long track record as a speaker and is known for his sell-out, action-packed live presentations, underpinned by true expertise, integrity and plenty of humour. But "Surviving in Business - and how to Start" is the first time his talks have been made available to the wider business world. "I want to encourage new businesses to start and grow while ensuring a safe future for their founders and families," continues Farran, "and I particularly want to help businesses that are struggling in the current economic climate. This isn't about 'get rich quick' or 'earn millions working three hours a week'. None of that nonsense. This is about real businesses getting real knowledge that will help them find viability, security and profit in the real world." Held on a Sunday to make it as convenient as possible, "Surviving in Business - and how to Start" takes place in Seymour Street, London W2, from 10.30am on January 17, 2010. The day's £95 fee is fully tax-deductable. Tickets can be bought at: http://www.thebusinessanarchist.com/ This content has passed through fivefilters.org. | |

| Man who took JFK photo celebrates MD business - San Francisco Examiner Posted: 05 Dec 2009 07:38 AM PST ANNAPOLIS, MD. — The photographer who took the famous photograph of John F. Kennedy Jr. saluting his father's coffin is celebrating 40 years in business. Stan Stearns was a photographer for United Press International when he took the photograph of JFK Jr. in 1963. He went on to have his own business in Annapolis where he now specializes in portraits, wedding and fine art photography. Stearns started working for UPI in 1959.
