Louisiana to address crossover crashes with new median barriers
2013-02-16
When we head out on the road, most of us know where to watch for potential car accident threats -- we look ahead of us to see that we aren't following too closely, and behind us to make sure we won't be rear-ended if we need to stop or slow down. At intersections, we watch traffic just in case another driver decides to run a red light or blow through a stop sign.
However, there is another car accident threat that a lot of people don't always internalize. On divided highways, many accidents are caused when a driver loses control and crosses over the median, hitting vehicles ...
The state of Texas alimony law
2013-02-16
A divorcing spouse in need of ongoing financial support from his or her ex may have to fight for it in Texas. Surprisingly, as recently as 1995, Texas was the last of all the states to enact an alimony statute -- a relatively narrow and restrictive one at that -- as compared with some other states' provisions.
Support payments from one former spouse to the other are called "alimony" under Texas law, and are also referred to as "spousal maintenance" or "spousal support." Texas statute defines alimony as periodic support payments from one ...

2013-02-16
Nearly 700 people around the country - almost 50 of them in New Jersey - have been infected with fungal meningitis transmitted in tainted steroid injections prepared by a Massachusetts compounding pharmacy.

Fiscal-cliff bill finally settles federal estate tax rates
2013-02-16
Americans of substantial means have struggled in recent years with tax and estate planning in part because the federal estate tax has become something of a wild card. With the passage of the American Taxpayer Relief Act, known as ATRA, the federal estate tax rate is finally settled, at least for the foreseeable future.
Fiscal cliff averted
As the new year of 2013 approached, Congress and the president were embroiled in tough, high-pressure negotiations to avoid the so-called "fiscal cliff." The fiscal cliff is an expression coined to describe federal deficit-cutting ...
Heart attack risks linked to kidney dialysis drug GranuFlo
2013-02-16
Last year, the Federal Drug Administration issued a Class I recall notice for GranuFlo and NaturaLyte Dry Acid Concentrates. A spike in the sudden cardiac arrests and deaths of dialysis patients across the country and in Pennsylvania necessitated the drug recall.
The drugs are used to treat acute and chronic kidney failure. When a patient's kidney function falls to 10 to 15 percent, hemodialysis is required. In dialysis, a machine filters wastes, salts and fluids from the blood because the patient's kidneys can no longer do this work. Some of the most common causes of ...
Birmingham man arrested for marijuana trafficking
2013-02-16
Over the last few decades, societal attitudes about marijuana have changed dramatically. Increasingly, many Americans -- especially young people -- are starting to think of marijuana as being more like alcohol than like heroin, cocaine or other harder drugs.
Unfortunately, this outlook sometimes leads people to ignore the serious criminal penalties that can come from Alabama drug charges. Law enforcement in Alabama continues to aggressively investigate and prosecute suspected marijuana crimes.
A recent illustrative example lies in the case of a Birmingham man who ...
A primer on DUI maiming charges in Virginia
2013-02-16
Virginia is known for having some of the toughest DUI/DWI laws in the country, and that hard-nosed stance extends to those who are involved in injury-causing accidents while they are driving under the influence. The law refers to the offense colloquially as "DUI maiming," and while it doesn't get much public attention, it is still one of the most serious alcohol-related offenses, and a conviction will come with harsh, long-term consequences.
The Womick case
A recent high-profile case involving a DUI maiming has thrust the issue back into the spotlight. The ...
