PORTLAND, OR, August 29, 2012 (Press-News.org) Engaged couples face a daunting task when it comes to planning their honeymoon. Often, the honeymoon will be the most expensive, most exotic trip they've ever taken; as well, it's often to a destination that neither has visited before.
Visual Itineraries new guide to the best honeymoon destinations walks the couple through important decisions about time of year, climate, food, language, lifestyle, and budget to help them narrow down their choice of destination. Then, for each destination, the guide provides lists of all the top resorts, and for each resort it provides high-resolution photo galleries, videos, virtual tours, reviews, and maps.
Visual Itineraries founder Michael Cottam, author of the new guide, was a co-founder of TheBigDay honeymoon registry and travel company back in 2001. "From 8 years of helping TheBigDay's wedding couples plan their honeymoons, I learned a lot about not only the kinds of questions wedding couples have about the honeymoon, but really about how they go about their decision making. And after the practical elements like weather, price, etc., it's really all visual: does the destination/resort they're looking at match the dream they have for the perfect romantic honeymoon?"
The new guide can be found at http://www.visualitineraries.com/articles/Best-Honeymoon-Destinations.asp.
Travel agents specializing in each destination are available to assist wedding couples in their honeymoon planning as well.
Visual Itineraries was founded in 2010, and is based in Portland, OR.

Tummy Tuck Benefits
2012-08-29
When you work with an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon, a tummy tuck can have remarkable benefits. While the most obvious benefit is a vastly improved appearance, that's far from the only advantage of this body sculpting procedure.
Why Consider a Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck is used to remove excess, stubborn deposits of fat, tighten abdominal muscles, and eliminate sagging, loose skin from your midsection. With this procedure, your entire abdominal area will look smoother, tighter, and more appealing. Improving the dimensions of your frame not only increases ...

2012-08-29
On July 4, a yacht capsized and sank in a bay just off Long Island. The 27 passengers aboard the 34-foot boat had been watching fireworks when they suddenly encountered bad weather and a wave swept over the boat. Three children died in the boating accident. According to Fox News, it is believed that the boat only had 10 life jackets onboard.

Homeland Security Announces August Launch of Deferred Action Process
2012-08-29
For years, advocates of smart immigration policies have called on Congress to implement the DREAM Act (Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act) for young immigrants who are dedicated to becoming Americans. Although Congress has yet to pass the DREAM Act, the Obama Administration has finally announced implementation of a new immigration policy that will defer deportation of low priority immigrants who arrived in the United States as children.
When Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Janet Napolitano announced the deferred action process back ...
Connecticut DMV Cracks Down on Unsafe Commercial Trucks
2012-08-29
Unsafe commercial vehicles put everyone on the road at risk. Due to their sheer size, a collision with an 18-wheeler or other large truck can cause significantly worse injuries than a comparable collision between two passenger vehicles.
Truck driver negligence -- like speeding, drowsiness or distraction -- plays a big role in commercial vehicle accidents. However, in many cases, truck crashes can be tied to violations of state and federal safety regulations.
Luckily, both the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration and the Connecticut Department of Motor Vehicles ...
Despite Dangers, Teens Continue to Text while Driving
2012-08-29
Due to many commercial campaigns and publicity events on the subject, the dangers of texting or emailing while driving can be said to be firmly rooted in the national consciousness. However, despite all the effort that has been expended into informing the American public about the hazards, a new survey shows that the message has not resonated--especially among young drivers.
The statistics highlighting the dangers of texting or emailing while driving are well known and easily accessible to the public. According to research by the U.S. Department of Transportation, text ...
The Problem of Negative Equity in California Homes
2012-08-29
While recent news of increased home sales is an encouraging sign for the housing market, the scars from the 2008 housing crisis are still evident. The increase in foreclosure activity in 2012 suggests that a number of troubled home loans are still in the market, and the wave of underwater mortgages (i.e. properties with negative equity) that have not been included in the foreclosure process threatens the market's stability.
According to a recent report by USNews.com, home loans currently subject to foreclosure carry nearly $45 billion in negative equity. However, that ...
What to Expect with Field Sobriety Tests
2012-08-29
Commercials for drunk driving enforcement are peppering the airways as Labor Day approaches. Indeed, law enforcement agencies will be actively looking for signs of drunk driving, but they primarily rely upon field sobriety tests to justify their suspicions that a driver may be driving under the influence. In 1977, the National Highway Safety Transportation Association (NHTSA) established a set of tests that police officers could use to justify an arrest. They include the walk-and-turn, the one legged stand, and the horizontal gaze nystagmus test.
Walk and Turn Test
