This study assesses the relationship between an owner's characteristic decisiveness and the performance of his or her business in a sample of small business owners who started new childcare ventures. Decisiveness was found to be positively related to performance. This finding was contrary to expectations of a negative relationship based on prior research related to the effects that the need for cognitive closure have on decision-making processes. One possible explanation for this unexpected result is that often a somewhat intuitive decision-making process is often adequate, particularly for the less complex venture. In such a case, the additional expenditure of time and other resources required to conduct a more normative logic-based decision-making process may result in fewer of these ...

Indicted restaurant owner Eva Christian staged a burglary at her Washington Twp. home in October 2009 only five weeks after she emerged from personal bankruptcy that liquidated $1.4 million in debts, according to prosecutors and court records. Montgomery County prosecutors have not discussed the charges facing the owner of the Boulvard Haus restaurant, which stem from a break-in at her residence, and a second burglary she reported two months later at another restaurant she owned. But U.S. Bankruptcy Court records paint a grim picture of severe financial distress Christian and her businesses faced in the months before and after she is accused of defrauding insurers of more than $100,000.

The state has been battling with Top Soil Depot for more than 25 years over violations of environmental regulations and has not been able to force owner Allan Rombough Sr. to comply despite numerous citations, three court orders and mounting fines that could far exceed $2 million.
A mysterious treasure in the form of a 1933 Charleston High School class ring has been unearthed. Obviously, its old. So old that the stone has fallen out and 78 years worth of black tarnish had to be removed from its exterior before any of its details could be revealed. Even then, not much can be discerned, other than the owner was a student at Charleston High School who graduated in 1933 and had the initials of MVL. He or she also had very small hands. Robin Shamblen is trying to get to the bottom of this mystery. Her husband found the ring while installing a wrought iron fence in front of their house in South Hills a few years ago. She finally got around to trying to track down the original owner about a month ago. I made a feeble attempt at one point to find who it belonged to, but ...
