American Banker
''American Banker'' is a Manhattan-based trade publication covering the financial services industry. Originally a daily newspaper, the print edition ceased publication in 2016, with an online edition continuing to be updated. The first issue of ''American Banker'' was published in 1885, though it has been considered a continuation of the earlier ''Thompson's Bank Note Reporter'', a bank note reporter which began publication in 1842. Although often confused with the American Bankers Association or other industry trade groups, ''American Banker'' is unaffiliated with any portion of the banking industry. History ''American Banker'' claims descent from ''Thompson's Bank Note Reporter'', a periodical published by John Thompson. For this reason, ''American Banker''s masthead gives a founding date of 1836, though the best available evidence suggests that Johnson's paper began publication in 1842. During the free banking era, ''Thompson's Bank Reporter'' was the most widely read and t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Charles David Steurer
Charles is a masculine given name predominantly found in English and French speaking countries. It is from the French form ''Charles'' of the Proto-Germanic name (in runic alphabet) or ''*karilaz'' (in Latin alphabet), whose meaning was "free man". The Old English descendant of this word was '' Ċearl'' or ''Ċeorl'', as the name of King Cearl of Mercia, that disappeared after the Norman conquest of England. The name was notably borne by Charlemagne (Charles the Great), and was at the time Latinized as ''Karolus'' (as in ''Vita Karoli Magni''), later also as '' Carolus''. Some Germanic languages, for example Dutch and German, have retained the word in two separate senses. In the particular case of Dutch, ''Karel'' refers to the given name, whereas the noun ''kerel'' means "a bloke, fellow, man". Etymology The name's etymology is a Common Germanic noun ''*karilaz'' meaning "free man", which survives in English as churl (< Old English ''ċeorl''), which developed its depre ...
