All property and assets acquired during the marriage are considered marital assets as opposed to non-marital assets -- generally those assets acquired by one spouse prior to the marriage. ...

More than 80 percent of adults believe that it is important to put their wishes about end-of-life care in writing, according to a recent report, but only one out of four does so.

The number of hours that medical interns work is legendary. As of 2003, a typical young doctor was on call for up to 36 hours at a time. As of 2011, that number was 30 hours. It's not surprising that many people have come to fear that exhausted interns may cause more medical or surgical errors. As a result, in 2011, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) passed nationwide standards limiting interns to 16-hour shifts. However, according to two recent studies published in JAMA Internal Medicine, shorter shifts may not lead to safer hospitals. ...
