Bad Boy Makes Good: Turner’s Success Factors
With his background in the classics, Turner had a penchant for recounting the successes of its greatest heroes: “When Alexander the Great took control when his dad died, he was twenty years old. He took the Macedonian Army, which was the best army in the world at the time, and conquered Greece, got the Greeks to all join with him, and then marched across the Hellespont and invaded Asia. They didn’t even know where the world ended at that time. And he was dead at thiry-three, thirteen years later. He kept marching. He hardly ever stopped. And he never lost a battle.”

The First Steps in Starting an Association
The most fundamental part of living in any free society is the ability to organize to form groups of people with similar interests. Often these are called Associations although there are a whole host of other names used for them including: organizations, federations, alliances, institutes, guilds, societies, foundations, clubs, congresses, coalitions, centers, networks, unions, chambers, or bureaus. Regardless of the name they all have the same goal to serve the needs of their members. Associations find their strength in numbers often sharing the common interests of industries, professions, charities, hobbies, or philanthropic action.

Don't be a Scrooge. Charitable giving is critical to your community and business
For the business owner, charitable giving can be a challenging subject in business planning. How much to give? Who to give to? Can we give each year even if our company isn't doing as well as before due to the recessionary economic environment? Many questions have to be resolved. But making a commitment to annual charitable donations and involvement and standing by it -- for your community and your employees -- can be immensely rewarding.

How do Churches Cope with the Recession?
Some scoffers find it hard to believe that churches not only get through hard times but that they actually grow in members and tithes and “donations” from existing church members. The press has always been antagonistic towards the Christian church so what I say here will probably be fodder for some good laughs for non-believers, but I will say it anyway. It is not their favor that I seek.

Radiology Job Outlook
Highly paid Radiologists may not generate much sympathy but their world may be changing. The constant rise in their salaries seems to have hit a wall and indeed due to some changes in reimbursement rates they may actually have fallen recently. Health care reform and the recession are already impacting the bottom line negatively. Last year, U.S. hospitals saw more patients without insurance or the ability to pay their hospital bills. Bad debt has risen while donations have fallen.
