The survey notes 66 percent of the attorneys used Facebook as evidence during a divorce. MySpace follows with 15 percent, Twitter at 5 percent, and other choices listed by 14 percent.

With foreclosures and debt levels at historic highs, officials are also reporting related increases in loan-modification scams. Consumers anxious to save their homes can be easily swayed by bogus companies promising lower payments and better loan terms. But, after pocketing victims' fees, scam artists leave homeowners with few options. How Common Loan-Modification Scams Work In many loan-modification scams, a seemingly-reputable company claims that, in return for an upfront fee, the company will renegotiate the terms of homeowners' mortgages and secure lower monthly ...

The NFL's recent high profile measures to reduce the risks of concussions to players brought well deserved attention to an important subject. For many decades, athletes at all levels were expected to shake off the symptoms that follow a head injury and get back in the game. But intensive study of concussions has led to the awareness that they are indeed traumatic brain injuries, and re-injury before symptoms have cleared can have lifelong, serious consequences. As important as this development is for professional athletes, the problem among teen athletes might be characterized ...

Spouses must address many difficult issues when going through divorce, including child custody, child support and alimony. In addition, the division of assets and debts can be challenging, particularly if a spouse is hiding assets. In many marriages, one spouse handles all financial matters while the other is not involved, not informed and possibly not even interested in money management. This may work well during the marriage, but during divorce both spouses need a full and accurate understanding of each other's assets and liabilities. Hidden assets can affect the ...

The Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 2010, which would have made "black box" technology mandatory in all vehicles sold in the U.S. by 2015, never made it beyond committee approval in the House of Representatives. Nonetheless, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that event data recorders (EDRs), which store data on a vehicle's speed, braking activity, engine RPMs and sometimes even seat belt use, are installed in 85 percent of all cars currently on American roads. This advanced technology can prove extremely useful in motor vehicle accident litigation, ...

Merriam Webster's dictionary defines a whistleblower as "one who reveals something covert or who informs against another." This definition perfectly describes an insider informant who, at great risk to him or herself, tells others -- even higher-ups in the same company or agency -- about illegal or improper activities taking place there. California Labor Code Section 1102.5 is expansive. It protects employees against retaliation for even internal whistleblowing. An employee need not report the activity to the government or an outside agency. Remember too that California ...

Pennsylvania Still Debating Distracted Driving Laws A respected nonprofit safety organization, the Advocates for Highway and Auto Safety, has issued a report saying that Pennsylvania is one of seven states that have a "dangerous lack of basic laws" regarding driving safety. This suggests that the state is missing many good opportunities to reduce the number of car accidents. The report ranked individual states based on the number of recommended laws each had enacted. States could receive a green (good), yellow (average) or red (poor) ranking. Eight states had green ...

In People v. Soto, the California Supreme Court has clarified the case law interpreting section 288 of the Penal Code. In People v. Soto, the California Supreme Court has clarified the case law interpreting section 288 of the Penal Code. The court held that consent by a child 14 years and younger cannot be a defense to an aggravating charge of committing a lewd or lascivious act by force or duress. California law, in section 288(a) of the Penal Code, prohibits lewd acts with a child 14 years or younger; California law classifies lewd conduct as a sex crime. Section 288(b)(1) ...

STANFORD, Calif. — Doctors at the Veterans Affairs Boston Healthcare System are testing a new kind of clinical trial that's not only less costly but guides doctors to switch to the best treatment even before the trial is completed. The new approach — called a point-of-care clinical trial — was developed by Stanford University biostatistician Philip Lavori, PhD, and a Boston-based team as an alternative to expensive, lengthy, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials to compare drugs and procedures that are already in regular use. "The goal of point-of-care clinical ...

A new study has demonstrated no significant benefit of taking the drug bosentan for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The results were published online ahead of the print edition in the American Thoracic Society's American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine. Read the full study here. Although the primary endpoint of the Bosentan Use in Interstitial Lung Disease (BUILD)-3 study was not attained, researchers point to the possibility of benefit for a subset of IPF patients who had undergone surgical lung biopsy to confirm their diagnosis. The study, ...

VIDEO: This is a video of a "beating " cardiomyocyte. Click here for more information.

The method is virus-free and produces heart cells that beat with nearly 100 percent efficiency, they claim. "We took the recipe for this process from a complex minestrone to a simple miso soup," ...

LA JOLLA, CA – New research by scientists at The Scripps Research Institute and collaborating institutions has identified a key regulator of fat cell development that may provide a target for obesity and diabetes drugs. In a paper published in the latest issue of Cell Metabolism, the scientists describe a protein called TLE3 that acts as a dual switch to turn on signals that stimulate fat cell formation and turn off those that keep fat cells from developing. TLE3 works in partnership with a protein that is already the target of several diabetes drugs, but their use has ...

Does a reduction in the price of alcohol result in an increase in deaths due to alcohol? This was the subject of a study following a significant reduction in taxes in Finland in 2004 (30% for spirits, 3% for wine).The abolition of import quotas by the EU in 2004 also made it possible to import from other member countries and this led to an increase of approximately 10% in alcohol consumption in Finland. This paper is particularly interesting as it not only reports the effects of reducing costs of alcohol on alcohol-related mortality, but it also reports the effects of such ...

PHILADELPHIA — The advancements of our electronic age rests on our ability to control how electric charge moves, from point A to point B, through circuitry. Doing so requires particular precision, for applications ranging from computers, image sensors and solar cells, and that task falls to semiconductors. Now, a research team at the University of Pennsylvania's schools of Engineering and Applied Science and Arts and Sciences has shown how to control the characteristics of semiconductor nanowires made of a promising material: lead selenide. Led by Cherie Kagan, professor ...

The Navy and Northrop Grumman completed at-sea testing of the Maritime Laser Demonstrator (MLD), which validated the potential to provide advanced self-defense for surface ships and personnel by keeping small boat threats at a safe distance. "The success of this high-energy laser test is a credit to the collaboration, cooperation and teaming ...

For those old enough to remember Mutual of Omaha's "Wild Kingdom" television series, the dynamics of predator-prey relationships seemed clear enough: predators thinned out prey populations, which enabled a smaller, but stronger, population to survive and reproduce. However, a new paper by University of Notre Dame biologist Gary Belovsky appearing in the prestigious journal Ecology Letters suggests that predator-prey relationships are much more complex than originally thought. The paper arose out of pioneering studies Belovsky, who also is director of the Notre Dame ...
