Custodial Rights of Colorado Fathers

2011-10-22
Custodial Rights of Colorado Fathers Colorado courts cannot make gender based decisions, thus they cannot favor the mother or father. Instead courts must focus on the best interests of the child. By using the multi-faceted best interest factors, Colorado courts can tailor custody decisions on a case-by-case basis. There is no traditional case any longer in Colorado. Colorado expressly identifies the importance of a father's rights. A man is presumed to be the father of a child if he and the child's mother are married at the time of birth or if he accepts a minor child ...

Minnesota Lawmakers: Joint Custody Presumption Needed

2011-10-22
Minnesota Lawmakers: Joint Custody Presumption Needed Fathers going through divorce proceedings understand all too well the hurdles that can come with seeking custody of their children. Although Minnesota law requires custody, visitation and parenting time to be decided "in the best interests off the child," a group of Minnesota legislators argued this past session that courts too often default to the outdated notion that mothers should be the primary caregivers. The lawmakers introduced a bill that sought to alter this perception by establishing a presumption ...

IRS Provides Small Escape Clause for Unwitting Spouses of Tax Cheats

2011-10-22
IRS Provides Small Escape Clause for Unwitting Spouses of Tax Cheats The old saying goes that only two things are certain in life -- death and taxes. This may be cliche, but it's true -- it can be extraordinarily difficult to escape tax liabilities, even if they were caused by a dishonest or abusive former spouse. Married couples who file a joint tax return are "jointly and severally" liable for the taxes they owe to the federal government. This means that the IRS considers them both equally responsible for the couple's taxes, even if the taxes are primarily ...

Maryland Increases Reckless Driving Penalties and Modifies Texting Legislation

2011-10-22

Protect Your Melon: Abiding by New York's Motorcycle Helmet Guidelines

2011-10-22
Protect Your Melon: Abiding by New York's Motorcycle Helmet Guidelines New York's mandatory helmet law is a point of contention between lawmakers and motorcyclists. Lawmakers believe they are preventing serious injuries resulting from motorcycle accidents and saving lives. Bikers, however, believe the legislature is infringing on their right to choose for themselves and is capriciously punishing them. It seems counterintuitive for people to protest laws designed to protect them, but Americans have never taken kindly to government control over personal decisions. Motorcycle ...

Custodial-Parent Removal of Children From Massachusetts

2011-10-22
Custodial-Parent Removal of Children From Massachusetts In our mobile society where people frequently move significant distances, courts have to regularly decide a difficult issue: When will a divorced parent with custody of the children be allowed to move out of state with the kids -- away from the other parent? Such a move will inevitably lessen the children's contact with the parent left behind. Exacerbating the separation problem, the cost of visiting will also increase, sometimes significantly. Similar issues arise when a custodial parent wants to move with ...

Brain study reveals how successful students overcome math anxiety

This response kicked in at the very mention of having to solve a mathematics problem. Teachers as well ...

Feed a cold -- starve a tumor

2011-10-22
The condition tuberous sclerosis, due to mutation in one of two tumor suppressor genes, TSC1 or TSC2, causes the growth of non-malignant tumors throughout the body and skin. These tumors can be unsightly and cause serious damage to organs. Growth of tumors in the brain may cause seizures and in the kidney, liver or heart, tumors can disrupt normal function, to the extent of causing the organ to fail. New research published in BioMed Central's open access journal Cell and Bioscience shows that the growth of glucose-dependent TSC-related tumors can be restricted by 2-deoxyglucose, ...
