NORCROSS, GA, December 20, 2012 (Press-News.org) When your debt becomes insurmountable, bankruptcy can provide immediate relief from debt collectors. While it's never a first choice, filing for Chapter 7 or 13 bankruptcy can offer some breathing room to help people reorganize their finances and get back on their feet.
Bankruptcy is an all too common occurrence in today's struggling economy. In September, 2012 alone, 2,817 people in Atlanta and Gainesville filed for bankruptcy. The reasons for seeking the guidance of Atlanta bankruptcy lawyers vary from case to case, but one commonality remains - people are still struggling to find and maintain decent jobs, and their debt is growing as a result.
According to federal unemployment statistics, the national unemployment rate for September, 2012 was 7.8%. That same month, Georgia exceeded the national average with a rate of 9.0% - 428,415 people registered as unemployed in the state.
Georgia has consistently remained above the national unemployment rate for at least the last year. With numerous people unable to find work, it's no wonder that so many local families are contacting bankruptcy attorneys in Atlanta as they face foreclosures, medical bills, and mounting credit card debt to fill the income gap.
Bankruptcy is a daunting decision to make, but it can sometimes provide the best long-term solution for rebuilding credit and regaining financial solvency. The Atlanta bankruptcy attorneys of Clark & Washington offer free debt consultation and bankruptcy law expertise to help people navigate this difficult financial decision.

Do palm trees hold the key to immortality?
2012-12-19
For centuries, humans have been exploring, researching, and, in some cases, discovering how to stave off life-threatening diseases, increase life spans, and obtain immortality. Biologists, doctors, spiritual gurus, and even explorers have pursued these quests—one of the most well-known examples being the legendary search by Ponce de León for the "Fountain of Youth." Yet the key to longevity may not lie in a miraculous essence of water, but rather in the structure and function of cells within a plant—and not a special, mysterious, rare plant, but one that we may think of ...

UofL scientist uncovers how airway cells regenerate after chlorine gas injury
2012-12-19
LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Scarring of the airways can lead to long-term breathing problems for some people exposed to high levels of chlorine gas from events such as an industrial accident, chemical spill following a train derailment or terroristic chemical warfare. Household mishaps from mixing bleach with acidic cleaning products also can cause release of chlorine gas; if this occurs in a poorly ventilated space, chlorine levels could be high enough to cause lung injury.
