Software firm clicks on new way to charge on-line

Article Abstract:

Echarge Corp. of Seattle, WA, hopes to carve a niche in the on-line shopping market with an alternative on-line billing software. The software allows consumers to charge on-line shopping to 1-900 telephone numbers, giving consumers the added convenience of having one bill for their on-line time and purchases. The service also gives another way to shop on-line to consumers, who otherwise might have been turned away by unavailability of credit cards or unwillingness to give out their credit card numbers.

Wall Street stands ground against new terror threats

Article Abstract:

The United States government on 1 August 2004 raised its terror alert to orange for financial institutions in New York, Washington and New Jersey, indicating that it had received specific information about a plot by al-Qaeda. However, Wall Street was defiant in the face of the new terrorist threat, and shares remained largely stable as employees coped with the heightened security measures.
