A steaming turkey dinner bathed in rich gravy. Getting tucked in to multicolored lights winking on and off against the darkness. In the morning, little feet padding down the stairs in rapid syncopation, hurried in anticipation of presents. For young and old alike, the holidays can be a magical time. But particularly for children, holiday gatherings and traditions have special meaning. These days, it is not always possible to hold the type of idyllic holiday events many of us remember from our own childhoods. The world has changed, and today's parents do not often ...

Maintaining a respectable presence online in social media profiles is important for many reasons, from job and college applications to business goodwill and professional reputations.

In one recent high-profile Colorado case, a young driver who was involved in a drunk driving accident was subjected to a maximum sentence in criminal court after Facebook postings showed the ...

Riding a motorcycle has become an increasingly popular option for San Francisco-area commuters. Not only do motorcycles save money on gas, but they also allow riders to better navigate through California's notoriously congested traffic. Unfortunately, many motorcyclists' time-saving techniques are met with frustration -- or even anger -- from other drivers on the road. Nowhere is this more true than with "lane-splitting," which is the practice of advancing down the road in between lanes of slow or stalled traffic. Sadly, misunderstandings between riders and ...

This type of bankruptcy can provide several benefits to eligible individuals. The ...

Brief Background on the Crisis Economists generally agree that the latest recession began in December 2007, when the housing bubble in the U.S. burst and stock markets tumbled, creating the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression. Dubbed by many as "the Great Recession," in reference to how significant the downturn was (and, by many accounts, continues to be), the recession has caused many homeowners to go into default on their mortgages. The effects of the housing bubble and its subsequent burst are still being felt today, despite official declarations ...
