Supreme Court Protects Generic-Drug Makers from Side-Effect Lawsuits
2011-07-29
A recent decision by the U.S. Supreme Court protects makers of generic medicine from lawsuits by consumers who acquire side effects not adequately represented in warning labels. The ruling further hurts already-suffering individuals and has analysts predicting that a change in the laws will result.

Preserving America's Social Security Simply a Matter of Priority
2011-07-29
Recent reports regarding the future of the Social Security program have been grim, including one recently released by the Social Security and Medicare Board of the Trustees projecting Social Security Trust Funds to fully exhaust in 2036.

The Ins and Outs of Wage Garnishment, and How to Avoid It
2011-07-29
In the world of debt collection, wage garnishment is the equivalent of bringing in the "big guns." It's a regular payment to a creditor, taken from a paycheck by the employer. This is a powerful tool used by creditors to get repaid, but it also requires that they initiate a lawsuit -- something many are reluctant to do until they've tried other methods first. In addition, as might be expected with this rather drastic method of repayment, there are state and federal laws that govern the process that restrict how much can be taken from a person's paycheck.

Improving Your New York Driving Record
2011-07-29
Most states have ways to penalize drivers who have several traffic violations on their records. From parking to speeding tickets, each subsequent offense could mean that you are one step closer to having your license suspended.
In New York, these violations add up as part of the New York Department of Motor Vehicles' (DMV) driver violation point system. Once a certain number of points is reached within a specific time period, drivers will be assessed additional monetary penalties and could have their licenses suspended or revoked.
How the Point System Can Affect Your ...
New Study Suggests Observation Instead of CT Scans
2011-07-29
When little ones suffer head injuries, it can be a traumatic event for both children and parents. Frantic parents want their children to see a doctor right away, and physicians (who largely practice defensive medicine) may seek CT scans to eliminate the possibility of any severe injuries. However, a recent study published in Pediatrics magazine revealed that children who have been injured would benefit from just being observed instead of immediately undergoing CT scans.
The physicians who took part in the study were uncertain whether too many CT scans could cause cancer ...
