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, ...

Some of the most contentious issues in a couple's divorce relate to child custody and visitation rights.

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, ...

In today's economy, it is common for employees to leave their employers and start their own companies.

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 ...

People should be able to like what they like, and this includes sweet wines. Offering wines matched to the different Vinotypes who all come together at the holiday dining table just might be your own holiday gift to wine lovers.
