The crash in the economy has hurt people in many professions, and has hurt the business of many lawyers. Law schools are continuing to graduate new lawyers every year and many are unable to find jobs. Experienced lawyers in areas such as real estate and construction are also struggling. This has caused a new explosion of lawyers flooding into the area of bankruptcy--an area that unfortunately increases when times are bad. Many of these lawyers are fighting for cases and have slashed fees to get clients. Some claim to process cases for as little as $499. This would seem ...

CBS reports that Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) has called the 14th Amendment's guarantee of birthright citizenship "a mistake," saying he may introduce a constitutional amendment to eliminate automatic.

Section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment was originally enacted to prevent the states ...

Everyone understands the old adage about being penny wise but pound foolish--that saving a little money here and there might cost you big money in the long run. Yet when faced with the current statewide budget deficit, Texas lawmakers may be forced to cut drug treatment programs for prisoners--programs that prevent future drug possession charges--that have proven to yield big returns for little investment. Although such programs are sometimes derided by critics as being "soft on crime," drug treatment in prison has been shown to address the root causes of many crimes, ...

As we become a society more and more dependent on technology, social networking sites -- like Facebook, MySpace, Twitter and even LinkedIn -- are rapidly turning into evidentiary jackpots for divorce attorneys and jilted spouses alike. Phony friend requests, drunken photos, brags about new purchases and even seemingly innocent status updates can all possibly be sources of information that could be used in a divorce or custody proceeding. There is also the relatively new concept of online relationships, also called "cyber affairs" and "virtual affairs," that -- for some ...

Named Abdallah's Laws, in honor of the injured boy, the proposed pieces of legislation would increase the penalties for some people convicted of drunk driving. What ...

The Obama administration has requested new regulations that would permit the obtaining of "wiretaps" for Internet communications. The regulations would require that communication providers allow wiretaps of their Internet. "The way we communicate has changed dramatically since 1994, but telecommunications law has not kept up. This gap between reality and the law has created a significant national security and public safety problem," said Valerie E. Caproni, the FBI's General Counsel. The Department of Justice and the FBI have been working for years to expand their ...

Next-of-Kin Registry The New Jersey legislature is paving the way to create a statewide voluntary program that would notify family members when a loved one has been involved in a serious motor vehicle accident. Called the "Next-of-Kin" registry, anyone holding a valid state-issued identification card, including a driver's license or permit, would have the option of including the names and contact information of up to two people in an electronic database maintained by the Motor Vehicle Commission. Law enforcement personnel then could access this information in cases where ...

Chronic depression is an adaptive, reparative neurobiological process gone wrong, say two University of California, San Diego School of Medicine researchers, positing in a new theory that the debilitating mental state originates from more ancient mechanisms used by the body to deal with physical injury, such as pain, tissue repair and convalescent behavior. In a paper published in the September online edition of Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Review, Athina Markou, PhD, professor of psychiatry, and Karen Wager-Smith, a post-doctoral researcher, integrate evidence from ...

RENO, Nev. – Kilauea Volcano on Hawaii's big island has been erupting on its east rift since 1983. But, in March 2008, an additional eruption vent opened at the volcano's summit, resulting in about triple the amount of sulfur dioxide gas (SO2) emissions drifting to the local community of Ka'u, raising health concerns over the risks associated with exposure to "vog," as the islanders refer to this volcanic air pollution. A University of Nevada, Reno researcher seized the opportunity to build upon her previous research of health risks associated with exposure to vog. Bernadette ...

A husband and wife research team from Melbourne, Australia, have identified a protein that may be a key therapy for many inflammatory diseases, including those affecting premature babies. In the October edition of Nature Immunology, Drs Marcel and Claudia Nold, from the Monash Institute of Medical Research, describe how a protein, interleukin 37 (IL‐37), reacts when an inflammatory response is detected in the body. "Our bodies mount an inflammatory response to protect against an infection, such as bacteria or viruses. However, if uncontrolled, inflammation ...

International marine scientists say that a huge coral death which has struck Southeast Asian and Indian Ocean reefs over recent months has highlighted the urgency of controlling global carbon emissions. Many reefs are dead or dying across the Indian Ocean and into the Coral Triangle following a bleaching event that extends from the Seychelles in the west to Sulawesi and the Philippines in the east and include reefs in Sri Lanka, Burma, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, and many sites in western and eastern Indonesia. "It is certainly the worst coral die-off we have seen ...

October 19, 2010 — University of Virginia chemical engineers Robert J. Davis and Matthew Neurock have uncovered the key features that control the high reactivity of gold nanoparticles in a process that oxidizes alcohols in water.
