			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>05/17/2012 // Odessa, Texas, USA // <a href='http://fadduollaw.com' rel='nofollow'>Fadduol, Cluff &#038; Hardy</a> // Texas truck accident attorneys at Fadduol, Cluff &#038; Hardy, P.C. // (press release)
<p>Odessa Truck Accident Attorney News Report </p>
<p>The Midland/Odessa, Texas truck crash lawyers at Fadduol, Cluff &#038; Hardy, P.C. represent victims who have suffered injuries because of traffic accidents involving large commercial trucks. These truck crash attorneys stay current on news regarding the trucking industry. They note that the United States Department of Transportation&#8217;s Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration recently issued a press release regarding a shutdown order issued by the agency.</p>
<p>The agency ordered Georgia-based Judson Mobley Logging, Inc. to immediately cease all transportation services because the company was an imminent hazard to public safety. This order was issued following an extensive review of the company’s operations. This review, conducted by FMCSA, found multiple violations of drug and alcohol testing, driver qualifications, and vehicle maintenance rules that substantially increased the likelihood of jeopardizing the safety of others. FMCSA immediately shut down the company’s operations after safety investigators discovered that the company continued to operate its vehicles in violation of a previous agency order to stop transportation services because of an unsatisfactory safety rating.</p>
<p>The FMCSA takes measures to protect the public by aggressively pursuing and shutting down trucking companies that violate safety measures. Even so, trucking companies continue to violate safety rules and regulations. These violations can lead to tragic accidents that result in horrific injuries to people traveling in passenger cars. To speak to the Midland/Odessa, <a  href="http://www.fadduollaw.com/attorney-bios/modesto-eduardo-rosales.html" target="_blank" alt="Midland accident attorney at Fadduol, Cluff &#038; Hardy, P.C"><b>Midland accident attorney at Fadduol, Cluff &#038; Hardy, P.C</b></a> about the injuries you received in a collision with a large commercial truck, contact them at 432-362-0399</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>05/09/2012 // West Palm Beach, FL, USA // <a href='http://reneperras.visionsmartnews.com' rel='nofollow'>Rene Perras&#8230;&#8230;  Le Buzz</a> // Rene Perras // (Blog)
<p>OneSeoCompany.com provides a great explanation of the most recent addition to Google&#8217;s algorithm.  In conjunction with the recent Panda and Penguin updates, Google has introduced a new tool in its spam fighting arsenal, all with the goal of providing the most relevant search results. Lawyer marketing teams need to get a good grasp on how entity search views long tail keywords as one meaningful phrases.</p>
<p><br/><br/><b>Media Information:</b><br /><br/><b>Address:</b> <br /><b>Phone:</b> 720-ONE-RENE<br/><b>Url:</b> <a href="http://reneperras.visionsmartnews.com/entity-based-seo-for-lawyer-marketing-branding_6885.html">Lawyer marketing - Rene Perras</a></p>
<p>Entities in terms of search are any items that have a real world existence that may be queried by users. For example, if the term “personal injury lawyer” is searched, traditional query results may have included items that represented the words “personal” “injury” and “lawyer” as separate terms. However, the new algorithm changes aid the search engine in understanding it and other long-tail keywords as one meaningful phrase.</p>

Some of the most serious auto accidents are those involving large trucks. National traffic statistics highlight the seriousness of these collisions.</p>
<p>The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration of the United States Department of Transportation tracks data regarding traffic accidents and fatalities. It reports that 3,380 people in the United States died as a result of crashes involving large trucks and that 74,000 people were injured in crashes involving large trucks during 2009. While the number of fatalities dropped 20 percent from the previous year, the number remains high, especially considered that 76 percent of those fatalities were occupants of the other vehicles.</p>
<p>Large trucks accounted for 4 percent of all registered vehicles, but they comprised 7 percent of all vehicles involved in fatal crashes. Large trucks were more likely than passenger vehicles to be involved in fatal multiple-vehicle crashes. Fatal crashes involving large trucks were more likely to occur on rural roads during the week and during day-light hours.</p>
<p>If you have suffered serious injuries or lost a loved one due to an accident involving a large truck, please contact the New Mexico truck accident lawyer / personal injury lawyers at Fadduol, Cluff &#038; Hardy, P.C. at 505-243-3588 or Mrosales@fadduollaw.com to discuss your legal rights.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>04/01/2012 // Dallas, Texas // <a href='http://kayvanwey.submitmypressrelease.com' rel='nofollow'>kayvanwey</a> // Kay Van Wey, Attorney at Law 
<p>Putting the brakes on <a  href="http://www.justputitdown.com/" target="_blank" alt="distracted driving"><b>distracted driving</b></a>; 5 seconds is average time your eyes are off the road while texting. The United States is currently facing an epidemic that not only claims lives, but also tears families and entire communities apart.  Distracted driving is not new, but as more people come to understand its dangers, the more they recognize change is needed. </p>
<p>Many states have passed laws against using cell phones while driving, and the federal government has issued regulations for commercial drivers to put their phones down while driving.  But each day, people continue to suffer severe injuries or even die from distracted driving – this is an epidemic and we need to know the facts about distracted driving.</p>
<p>A recent study conducted by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety on distracted driving statistics reveals that teenage girls are twice as likely as boys to use their cell phones or other electronic gadgets while driving.  Distractions along with driver inexperience become a deadly combination for many teens and adults.  An estimated 5,000 people in the United States die each year from distracted driving-related accidents, and an additional 448,000 are injured.</p>
<p>“If done often enough, driving distracted can become a habit.  Before it becomes a habit, we need to educate drivers, especially teen drivers, about the <a  href="http://www.justputitdown.com" target="_blank" alt="dangers of distracted driving">dangers of distracted driving</a> and urge them to not drive distracted,” says Dallas attorney Kay L. Van Wey.</p>
<p>Ms. Van Wey has dedicated her career to helping the unwitting victims of catastrophic personal injury and wrongful death.  She has seen first-hand the destruction that a simple text message or phone call can cause in a person’s life and has represented the victims of distracted driving accidents.</p>
<p>“I realized that educating people about the dangers of distracted driving is the key to ending the epidemic.  For that reason, I created Just Put It Down, a community service campaign to end distracted driving and save lives,” says Ms. Van Wey.</p>
<p>She also launched a website, www.justputitdown.com, where drivers can take the Just Put it Down Pledge to end distracted driving, share their own stories of distracted driving, and get free educational resources.</p>
<p>“As a busy mother, attorney, and consumer advocate, I used to be guilty of using my cell phone while driving, and I know how difficult it can be to not use your phone while driving.  But the trade-off is that you may be saving a life, which is much more important than a text message or phone call,” says Ms. Van Wey.</p>

<p>Finally! I&#8217;m so glad that children suffering from cancer can have a Barbie that reflects their beauty. I think Mattel should sell these Barbies in retail stores because it will also make these girls feel more &#8220;normal,&#8221; because their local store carries a Barbie like her. </p>

<p>There is a huge need for more research regarding Autism and what exactly is causing it. I am not a doctor, but I can&#8217;t help to believe that either environmental factors or something in our diet is triggering this disease. Thousands of families need answers and guidance, which is why we should be actively researching this disease.</p>

<p>This is a total invasion of privacy on all levels. I believe an employer has every right to look at anything on Facebook that is available for public viewing, but asking for the user names and passwords is plain invasion of privacy. If the feds decide that this is not illegal, then it will completely change the hiring process and job landscape.</p>
