Are Over the Counter Whitening Strips Bad for Your Teeth?

2012-08-15
Over the counter teeth whitening strips may be more harmful to your teeth than other teeth whitening options. The dangers of whitening strips are inherent in their design. Whitening strips: - Cannot penetrate deeply, requiring more frequent usage - Do not hold the bleaching solution to your teeth, resulting in significant amounts of solution being washed away by saliva Because they rely on acids to lift stains and must be used with greater frequency to obtain and maintain results, over the counter whitening strips are perhaps the least ideal teeth whitening option ...

Maintaining Your Tummy Tuck Results

2012-08-15
The results of a tummy tuck can be stunning. A flatter, tighter, more toned abdomen along with increased muscle definition and strength can all be achieved through this procedure. However, a tummy tuck is a complex surgical procedure and not one you will want to repeat on a regular basis. Fortunately, once you have fully recovered from your tummy tuck, maintaining your results can be simple and enhance your overall health as well. Diet and Exercise The most effective way to maintain and even enhance your tummy tuck results is with proper diet and exercise. Many men ...

Researchers Work to Reduce Crashes Involving Commercial Trucks

2012-08-15
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, accidents remain one of the top causes of death in the United States. Unintentional accidents, like car and truck accidents, are responsible for over 118,000 deaths every year. Many of these accidents involve large trucks and smaller passenger cars. Accidents involving trucks can be particularly devastating based on simple physics. A typical commercial truck far outweighs a common passenger vehicle. In fact, the average difference in weight is well over 70,000 pounds. This weight difference can vary based on ...

Wrongful Foreclosure in Minnesota: Is Compensation Available?

2012-08-15
The Great Recession and the mortgage crisis that accompanied it were bad enough. Many large mortgage lenders and their loan servicers only made it worse. Their failure to help financially stressed homeowners work out ways to stay in their homes led to wave after wave of foreclosures. This was not only unfair to families that lost their houses; it also had the effect of dampening the real estate market for years on end as all of those foreclosed properties pulled down prices for everyone else. This article will discuss compensation that may be available in Minnesota ...

Should the U.S. Require Large Trucks to Use Speed Limiters?

2012-08-15
Large trucks are some of the most dangerous vehicles on the road. This is not to say that commercial truck drivers are necessarily more negligent than other drivers. However, because these trucks are so large -- a fully-loaded semi-truck can weigh up to 80,000 pounds -- the average 4,000 pound car simply does not stand a chance in a collision. Despite this danger, large trucks are a crucial part of the American economy. Since it would be impractical to argue that trucks should be taken off the road, regulators have instead focused on finding ways to prevent truck accidents ...

Federal Legislators Proposing Law to Ban Rental of Recalled Vehicles

2012-08-15
Across the country, every day countless people head out on the open road in a rented vehicle. Family vacations, business meetings, crash repairs; there are many reasons why a person would need a rented vehicle. What most people don't know, though, is that they could be tooling down the road in a ticking time bomb. In spite of the high-profile recall of millions of cars in recent years, there is no law prohibiting the rental of recalled vehicles even though the same defects that would lead an automaker to issue a recall in the first place exist in the rented cars as well. The ...

Controversy Surrounding System to Determine Truck Crash Accountability

2012-08-15
The sheer size and weight of commercial trucks make truck collisions some of the most deadly types of motor vehicle accidents. The potential danger posed by 18-wheeler accidents has led the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) to track such crashes and rate carriers' safety performances. Now, those in the trucking industry are advocating for changes to this system. The FMCSA tracks truck accidents as part of its Compliance Safety Accountability (CSA) program. Under the program, part of a carrier's safety rating is based on the number of crashes its trucks ...

Lower Extremities Injuries From Motorcycle Accidents

2012-08-15
Anyone who has ridden a motorcycle knows the thrill of being out in the open with their bikes. But being exposed like this also has a serious drawback; when a motorcyclist is involved in an accident, the injuries can be severe or fatal. The most common types of injuries suffered by motorcyclists are injuries to the lower extremities, according to a study conducted by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT). And, after reviewing motorcycle accident data from 1997 to 2006, the agency found that the most common injuries to the lower extremities are to motorcyclists' ...

Curbing Defensive Medicine

2012-08-15
Defensive medicine is a term used to describe practices that doctors engage in to protect themselves from possible liability claims. Defensive medicine includes any procedure that a doctor may prescribe in order to protect him or herself from liability. It typically involves extra testing or diagnostic procedures on a patient in order to "be sure" the doctor is taking the correct route. These tests are not only dangerous in terms of potential side effects, but they also waste time and money for both patients and hospitals and add strain to an already overtaxed ...

Study Finds Cars With Lane Departure Systems Have More Accidents

2012-08-15
Automobile lane departure systems are designed to help motorists avoid accidents by warning them when they are straying out of their lanes. This is done through the use of radar, sensors and computer controls in the car. Although these systems were expected to reduce car accidents, a recent study shows that they may not be effective. According to a study conducted by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), they found a 10 percent increase in car crashes for automobiles that contained lane departure technology. While it is unclear why this increase occurred, ...

Older Workers Hit Hard by Country's Economic Woes

2012-08-15
A recent survey performed by the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) confirms what many older jobseekers have suspected -- the country's economic crisis seems to be disparately affecting older workers. Allegations of age discrimination have risen about 30 percent since 2006. In fact, complaints of age discrimination reported to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) are at an all-time high, and they now account for over a quarter of all work-related complaints. The AARP survey -- which included 1000 people over the age of 50 -- found that not only ...

More Elderly Homeowners at Risk of Foreclosure

2012-08-15
The scourge of the foreclosure crisis has affected millions of middle-aged Americans, but little has been reported on the most vulnerable homeowners; elderly Americans. According to a recent report by the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) millions of older homeowners are at risk. Among the report's findings, nearly than 600,000 people age 50 and older are facing foreclosure, and an estimated 625,000 are at least three months behind on their mortgage payments. The proportion of delinquent loans held by older Americans has increased by 450 percent over the last ...

Can a Subsequent Owner of a Home Succeed on a Claim for Implied Warranty of Habitability Related to Construction Defect in Real Estate?

2012-08-15
Is occupancy of a home by the first owner a condition precedent to denying a subsequent owner a claim for implied warranty of habitability? This question is posed by many subsequent homeowners for construction defects against original builders. The answer in short is yes. The subsequent homeowner cannot bring a construction defect claim against the original builder, unless the defects from the current seller are not readily visible or discoverable. This is the classic, patent v. latent argument in construction defect and real estate in general. In Colorado, under the ...
