NYC Traffic Deaths Spike for Motorists, Cyclists and Pedestrians
2012-10-11
The September 2012 Mayor's Management Report revealed a 23 percent increase in New York City traffic fatalities. That number - which includes deaths involving automobiles, bicycles and walkers - is particularly discouraging because it halts a trend of improved safety beginning in 2007.
The data measured the period from July 2011 through June 2012, yielding a total of 291 traffic-related deaths. The previous yearlong stretch had only 236 fatalities.
The Bloomberg administration is struggling to answer why there was an increase in fatal accidents, suggesting that drunk ...
Scientists Say 'Network Dysfunction' the Most Troubling Impact of TBI
2012-10-11
Traumatic brain injuries are some of the most troubling consequences of motor vehicle crashes and other accidents. It is not just that the side effects of traumatic brain injuries -- which include persistent headaches, sensory impairments, nausea, pain, personality changes and cognitive difficulties -- are so severe. Traumatic brain injuries are also incredibly difficult to diagnose, making it hard for victims to get the medical treatment they need.
Still, medical researchers continue to make steady progress in the areas of brain injury diagnosis and treatment. Recently, ...
What Are My Child Custody Rights in Utah?
2012-10-11
Some of the most contentious issues in a couple's divorce relate to child custody and visitation rights. It can be unimaginable for a parent who has spent every day with his or her children to have limits placed on time with their youngsters. Consequently, it is imperative during such trying times for parents to be aware of their rights.
When parents cannot reach an agreement, the court will step in to decide custody and visitation rights by considering the best interests of the child. According to the Utah State Courts, some of the factors considered are "the depth, ...
Ohio Child Sex Crime Task Force Rolls Out Mobile Forensics Laboratory
2012-10-11
In any criminal case involving accusations of internet sex crimes, the prosecution must present complex evidence of child exploitation or child solicitation involving computer files, communication records and other data. To counter the impact of this data, a sex crimes defense attorney must understand the technical nature of the evidence as well as a client's rights.
The Ohio Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force (ICAC) recently introduced a high-tech mobile forensics laboratory that it will deploy across the state to expedite investigations of alleged child exploitation. ...
Basics of Non-Compete Agreements
2012-10-11
In today's economy, it is common for employees to leave their employers and start their own companies. Whether it is frustration with corporate America or a desire to chase their ultimate dreams, employees who become entrepreneurs can threaten an employer's competitive advantage. This can be especially problematic when former employees compete against their employers, as a number of legal protections that restrict an employer's ability to prevent former employees from competing against them.
Essentially, restrictive covenants, generally known as non-compete agreements, ...
Nevada Law Enforcement Cracks Down on Speeding, Distracted Driving
2012-10-11
Speeding and distracted driving are two of the biggest threats to highway safety, both in Nevada and throughout the United States. Engaging in either of these behaviors substantially increases the risk of a serious car accident. Still, many Nevada drivers choose to ignore these dangers in favor of rushing to their destination or texting while driving.
Nevada law enforcement agencies have been working hard to combat this problem. This summer, more than 24 state and local departments banded together to launch a "Joining Forces" campaign against speeding and distracted ...
Jumping Through Hoops: New Case Highlights Obstacles for Michigan FTCA Plaintiffs
2012-10-11
Government activities touch much of our everyday lives and those activities can do as much harm as any others. Although it is possible for Michigan private plaintiffs to sue the federal government for some harmful errors, Federal Tort Claims Act cases (FTCA) impose a complicated set of prerequisites. In one recent FTCA decision, a Navy veteran found himself barred from the courts because he did not satisfy those requirements.

Prudential Reveals Almost Half of UK Business Owners Have No Pension Savings
2012-10-11
Almost half (46 per cent) of UK business owners* - or 1.3 million** people - have no private pension savings to support them in retirement, according to new independent research from Prudential***.
Of those who have failed to make any private pension provision, more than half (54 per cent) said this was because they simply could not afford to set money aside.
