Robert Bhat Announces Investment Into King Pin Lanes
2012-08-11
Robert Bhat invested one million dollars in the struggling business in 2009.

Robert Bhat believed that King Pin Lanes was worth saving and could still be profitable in the current market.
As Bhat believed, King Pin Lanes has since made an exceptional recovery. It is now a profitable venture and revenues have increased by 20%. Many changes were made that boosted the profitability and efficiency ...

New Brain Injury Study Links Single Head Trauma and Alzheimer's
2012-08-11
Of the many severe injuries that car and truck accident victims can suffer, brain injuries can be the most difficult to properly diagnose. Accident victims who have suffered head trauma frequently consult with a personal injury lawyer to help them pursue compensation that will meet their long term medical expenses and other damages.
A recent brain injury study published in the Journal of Neuroscience further explores the connections that medical experts have identified between traumatic brain injury (TBI) and Alzheimer's disease. The authors cite compelling evidence ...
An Uncivil War: What to Do When Custody Battles Cross State Lines
2012-08-11
The majority of the states in America (including West Virginia) and the District of Columbia have adopted a model rule -- the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA) -- to guide family court judges making or modifying interstate or international child custody agreements.
When is the UCCJEA Applicable?
The UCCJEA does not automatically apply to every child custody dispute that happens to involve parents in different states or countries. The UCCJEA sets forth a number of possible scenarios, one of which must exist before a family court judge ...
New Motorcycle Riders at Highest Risk for Accidents
2012-08-11
In June 2012, a 37-year-old man, just about to retire as a Marine, was riding his motorcycle in North Carolina. It was dark, in the early morning hours, and the North Carolina Highway Patrol said he took a turn too fast and caused his motorcycle to flip on a ramp going towards westbound US 70. The man was ejected off his motorcycle and struck a sign. He sustained fatal injuries.
The cause of the motorcycle accident is unclear. Weather was not a factor, and a toxicology report was requested. Since the results of the toxicology test are not known, it is possible alcohol ...
Large Gifts as a Strategic Part of Family Wealth Transfer
2012-08-11
The larger the gift, the more strategic the giver must be in planning and executing it.
This is not only because a recipient can generally do more with a bigger gift than a smaller one. To maximize the size of the gift itself, it is important to minimize the impact of all types of inheritance taxes, including estate and gift taxes. This requires careful choices concerning how a wealth transfer is structured.
This article will discuss a particular choice facing wealthy families in New Jersey and across the country: whether and how to make gifts to family members to ...
Florida Women Protected by Federal Pregnancy Discrimination Laws
2012-08-11
With the recent appointment of accomplished executive and mother-to-be Marissa Mayer as Yahoo!'s new CEO making headlines about the relationship between pregnancy and career, all working women should review the law that protects them from discrimination based on their pregnancy or childbirth.
The Pregnancy Discrimination Act
The Pregnancy Discrimination Act is an amendment to the Civil Rights Act that protects women from workplace discrimination arising from a pregnancy or childbirth and any related conditions. It bars employers from discriminating against a woman ...
The Affordable Care Act and Medical Debt
2012-08-11
Medicine is supposed to be about helping sick people, not hounding them about their debts. That should be a self-evident proposition in a culture that respects human dignity and values quality medical care.
But the high-pressure medical debt collection tactics allegedly used by Accretive Health, a collector hired by the Fairview Hospital system, have been documented by the Minnesota attorney general's office. In May of 2012, Accretive admitted that it regularly called patients at home before medical procedures and talked with others in emergency rooms.
The Accretive ...
Eligibility for Disability Benefits Due to a Mental Health Condition
2012-08-11
Most everyone understands that the Social Security Administration (SSA) provides disability benefits for physical injuries and disabling diseases, from paralysis or traumatic brain injury to chronic painful conditions such as carpal tunnel or back pain. However, the range of conditions covered by Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) includes many debilitating mental disorders.
People who cannot work because of major depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, panic or other mental health conditions should understand their eligibility ...
New Research Links Overworked Nurses to Poorer Patient Care
2012-08-11
For years, as cash-strapped hospitals have slashed staffing budgets to pad the bottom line, nurses have protested that fewer of them translates into more hospital errors. A new study seems to back up this reasoning, although perhaps not for the reasons you may expect.
Nurse Burnout Causes Infections in Thousands of Pennsylvanians Every Year
In the past, low hospital staffing has simply been thought of as a numbers game -- fewer caregivers provide a lower standard of care. But, the recent research shows that the effect of subpar staffing levels runs much deeper: it ...
