-An indicator called "The Texas Ratio" has become infamous in the past year as people track the fate of banks across the state and across the nation. And for good reason.

-Also included: Links to fills Unity customers might want to check as all five branch offices of Unity National reopened Saturday as part of The Bank of the Ozarks, a $2 billion-plus regional bank based in Little Rock, Ark., with substantial holdings in Texas--and now five offices in Northwest Georgia.
