New account offers higher earnings with SuperNOW plan
The SuperNOW checking account debuts January 5 offering higher interest with a $2,500 minimum, insured up to $100,000, and monthly rate adjustments. It aims to rival money market funds while keeping unlimited checks, though higher minimums and bank reserve rules reduce returns compared with money-market accounts.

State billed for joke books and a humor newsletter
Illinois records show the Illinois Children and Family Services Department and the Senate Republican staff were billed for joke books and Orben’s Current Comedy newsletter. Don Schlosser of the Children and Family Services Department signed the bill after initially claiming nonapproval. He later said the subscription aided staff in speech writing, though renewal is unlikely. The state also paid 10.71 for two humor books by Raymond J. Krogh.
