Southlake, TX (ContentDesk via ContentDesk Direct) June 30, 2005 -- Executive Medicine of Southlake, founded by Walter Gaman, MD, FABFM, FCFP and James Mark Anderson, MD, DABFM, is a full-service health and wellness center in which executives and their spouses can obtain their comprehensive physical exam.
The exams include a wide range of testing such as thallium stress testing, full body scan, virtual colonoscopy, laboratory testing, fitness and wellness assessments, and now an executive coach assessment.
Co-author of "Executive Medicine: Optimizing Your Chances for a Longer Life," Dr. Gaman states, "During the course of writing our book we researched executive health needs that go beyond what we do in the office.
It became clear that executive coaching is a valuable tool in bringing balance to the highly stressful lives of executives.
In response, we sought out the best of the best for our patients."
Executive Medicine of Southlake has selected faculty from the University of Texas at Dallas graduate program for Executive and Professional Coaching as a basis for referral.
Founded in 2004 as part of Executive Education at The UTD School of Management, the UTD Executive and Professional Coaching Program is directed by Dr. Robert Hicks.
Dr. Hicks, an organizational psychologist, emphasizes the importance of the connection between a person's physical health and their professional well being.
"We've learned that professional well being and physical well being go hand in hand and profoundly affect an executive's work performance and efficiency. For this reason, professional coaching is a natural extension of executive medicine," he says.
"Each coach that has been added to our referral basis has come by high recommendation of their peers and has passed a comprehensive interview with the members of our medical team.
We are pleased to announce our alliance with UTD and are positive that the expertise of these individuals will enrich the lives of our patients," reports Dr. Anderson.
Executive coaching, which first became popular in the 1990s, is being utilized by many companies and organizations.
The benefits of coaching include increased productivity and reduced stress.
"We are excited to see leaders in preventative health embracing our role in the emotional and life balance of their patients.
This alliance is sure to be successful because of the strength of the high-level collaboration from multiple professional disciplines," states Judith Feld, a Master Certified Coach (International Coach Federation) and a program manager with the Executive and Professional Coaching Program at UTD.
Associate Dean for Executive Education at UTD Dr.
David Springate agrees with Ms. Feld, adding, "The coaching program has given us additional opportunities to help individuals and corporations in our area. We look forward to working together with Executive Medicine of Southlake and their patients."
Executive Medicine of Southlake is dedicated to the health and wellness of its patients and celebrates in the successes of each individual.
"Being a patient at Executive Medicine of Southlake, is like having a medical team rally around you and give you individualized five-star service.

Business Licenses Required to Legally Start Your Business
Copyright (c) 2006 Elias Stassinos
Here's a list of
business licenses
you need to start your business.
All starting businesses need one or more business licenses and tax ids before legally starting business operations.
After reading this article you will know exactly what business licenses you need to start your business. First, all starting businesses need a business license.
There are a few businesses that are not required to have one but that's a small percentage compared to the percentage of businesses that need a business license to legally operate.
The business license requirement applies to all businesses:
Home-based businesses, online internet businesses, contractor's businesses, professional businesses and any other type of business.
If you are a professional, such as a mechanic or hairdresser,
you might need to apply for a professional license directly from the state....
Business Entities ? What Are The Choices?
When you decide to start your own business, one of the most important decisions you will make is determining which business entity is right for your business. This decision will have a huge impact on how the business is operated, how taxes are paid, and your personal liability. Different types of entities have different advantages and disadvantages that must be taken into consideration, but you should start with an understanding of exactly what each type of business entity is.The sole proprietorship is the choice for most business startups, but it isn't necessarily the best choice. What makes this type of business structure attractive is that it is the easiest and fastest way to set up a business. All that is required for a sole proprietorship is a business license, which can be obtained in about an hour by visiting your local court house, paying the fee and filling out a short form.A partnership is just like a sole proprietorship, except that there is more than one owner.

Why You Need to Blog and use RSS Feeds!
Blogs and RSS feeds are a sure-fire way to get your website off the dirt roads of cyberspace and onto the Internet superhighway!
Think about it.
Has your web traffic been slow and bumpy?
Then maybe it's time to try a new route. Let's imagine for a minute the local department store you shop in.
What would you think if the displays never changed?
Every time you entered you saw the same signs advertising the same products.
Boring, right?
After a while you wouldn't even pay attention to them.
Websites are no different.
RSS feeds and blogs are interesting ways to spruce them up a bit - to keep things interesting and changing.
Believe me, interest is a key element in drawing people back time and time again. Dan's website had been around for a while - several years in fact.
Unfortunately, though he tediously watched for visitors, the website was trickling in a minuscule amount of sales.
Incorporate Business
According to the US Bureau of Census, 550,000 new businesses were formed in 2002. It is not known how many were incorporated. There were approximately 22.9 million businesses in the US. These are small businesses that form the backbone of the American economy. Small businesses represent 99.7% of all employers and create more than 50% of non-farm private gross domestic product.
Most businesses start out small.
In the beginning, data reveals that 82% of the small businesses are financed by personal loans or savings and loans from friends and relatives. Hence, when these firms grow large, it is important that easier access to finance from banks and the public is available. Moreover, the owners' liabilities have to be reduced to decrease personal and business risk.
A checklist for starting a business runs like this: select a business structure, choose a tax year, select accounting method and payment of business taxes. The need for incorporation arises if...
Interior Design With A Plasma
One of the amazing things about plasma televisions is the multitude of options they create for interior designers. The main feature benefit of the plasma is its slim profile. When switched on, a plasma television can dominate a room, but when switched off it can become an unobtrusive wall hanging.
Of the many design options, camouflage remains one of the most popular. In the living room, a plasma television can be inset in the wall and easily covered by a sliding panel to hide the unit when not in use. That would have been impossible with a bulky CRT television.
The sliding panel can hold a
mounted print and act as a contributing member of the d?cor.
I recently saw another interesting technique used to
incorporate a plasma television into a room's design inside a friend's master bedroom. The TV was mounted with a gilded frame to cover all but the screen itself, and placed at the foot of the bed, on the wall above a dresser. The reflective...
How to Interview Your Way To Ebook Success
Most "create-your-own-ebook" advice tells us to write about something we know or are interested in. That's a good place to start, but it isn't absolutely necessary. And if you follow the advice of successful Internet marketers ? "find the market first, then develop your product" ? it might not even be possible. For example, what if your market research tells you that an ebook about teaching ferrets to do tricks would be profitable, but you've never seen a ferret in your life? The answer? Research. And part of that research can include interviews.
If your initial research turns up the name of a noted ferret expert, for instance, an easy way to incorporate that person's expertise and knowledge into your ebook is to interview him. Here's a step-by-step process for conducting effective interviews:1. Decide WHO to interview. Make sure the person truly is an expert in the field and knows what he's talking about. Contact him (preferably by phone) to see if he's willing to do an interview....
