Most banks in the U. S. open at 9:00 or 10:00 and close between 3:00 and 5:00, but stay open later on Fridays. Some banks have longer hours in order to attract customers.
What"s the best way to carry money safely while you are traveling There are three
possibilities -- personal checks from your country, traveler"s checks and credit cards. Some American banks accept foreign checks such as Euro-checks; the problem is that only those banks that are used to dealing with foreigners will know what Euro-checks are.
It may be more convenient to carry traveler"s checks, which are insured against loss. They should be in dollars, because only a few banks do much business in foreign currencies. If your checks are not in dollars, it may take you a long time to find a bank that will exchange them. You can use traveler"s checks almost anywhere -- in restaurants, stores or ticket offices — without having to go to a bank. If you run out of them, you can buy more at most banks. Their service charge will vary, though, so ask what it is before you buy your checks.
Americans would say the best way to carry money is to have a major credit card like Visa, Card or American Express. Credit cards can be canceled if they are lost or stolen. And because they are widely accepted in the U. S. , it is easy to use them to pay for lodging, transportation, meals and things you want to buy from larger stores.
Of course, you cannot get along without cash, but you don"t need to carry much with you.A —TOP Stories B —E-newsletters

As you know, six times a year the company conducts an orientation workshop for new employees. The purpose of these workshops is to acquaint new employees with the company: its organization, its executive personnel, its products, its objective, and its future.
A meeting is scheduled for October 19 this year. I hope each of you will come prepared to suggest ways in which our division can be more interesting and productive. Please be prepared to suggest a new format for the workshops, including the arrangement of slide presentations.

Children under five have an abundance of energy and one of the reasons is because they nap once or twice a day. Many sleep experts think we"re programmed to take a nap during the day, and gating back into this habit can be a solution for those who feel tired all the time.
Prof. Chris Idzikowski of the Sleep Advisory and Assessment Center thinks that one can feel refreshed after just five minutes sleep. And research has shown that concentration and attention are improved after even a short nap.
Sleep is genetically programmed in babies and it"s only as we get older that we learn to sleep for about eight hours a night and not at all during the day. But most research suggests that we are not physically designed to sleep for one long, single block.
Before the working day became nine to five, all Western sleep patterns were more broken up. Research has shown that in the Middle Ages, people"s sleep quite often occurred in "three distinct parts — a nap in the afternoon, an early morning nap and another, longer sleep until dawn.
So if you do find yourself feeling sleepy through the day, don"t feel you"re being lazy by giving in to sleep and having a nap. Your increased energy and alertness will make the rest of your day extra productive.Most banks in the U. S. open at 9:00 or 10:00 and close between 3:00 and 5:00, but stay open later on Fridays.
