While software issues with Apple’s iPhone OS have now been resolved, it’s important to realize that the thing itself might still break. That’s where CPR comes in. About a month ago Apple introduced an updated iPhone OS 3.1. This smartphone-related software debuted with a plethora of new features, including a Genius system to recommend new apps, new ways to organize your apps, and the ability to download ringtones wirelessly. On October 8, 2009, Apple released […]

Amelia Nosehart liked to fly through the malls to get a head start on Christmas. But a policy she’d purchased from California Health Insurance agent Matt Lockard literally helped save her sight when “shopping” went horribly wrong. Amelia Nosehart’s favorite day of the year was the day after Thanksgiving when Rancho Bernardo shoppers could get a head start on their Christmas shopping with early bird specials. Retail stores in neighboring burbs would open at two, […]

For chefs or just someone who adores puttering in the kitchen, Bear Creek Closets in Tampa have the perfect kitchen pantry solution. Storing items in the kitchen has always been a challenge with those “by the book, every kitchen almost looks similar” cabinets that are all the same size. Rarely does imagination ever play a part, and that is where Tampa’s Bear Creek Closets steps into the breach and brings real wood pantry solutions into […]

Twelve-year-old Gifford Sullivan was asked to raise a turkey for his family’s Thanksgiving dinner and … his turkey became a pet. Because of California Health Insurance agent Matt Lockard, the disaster that ensued was not made infinitely worse. Gifford loved his turkey. No, literally. Gifford loved his turkey. A Sullivan family tradition was to have the eldest child raise a wild turkey that would, at the appointed time, a few days prior to Thanksgiving, be […]

Stewart Rabinowitz of the Dallas-based law firm Rabinowitz and Rabinowitz praises Mayor Bloomberg’s plan Immigrants: The Lifeblood of New York City. Mayor Bloomberg understands the critical role that immigrants play in our economy and communities. In 2006, he urged a comprehensive and pragmatic policy for immigration reform, which would point the undocumented to the path of U.S. Citizenship. As a leader in welcoming and integrating immigrants into the tapestry of American communities, Mayor Bloomberg has […]

Step parent adoptions are quite common these days and not as complex as many people think. The fact of the matter when it comes to step-parent adoptions is that they are a whole lot easier and faster than other forms of adoption. This is because many of the states tend to bypass the home-study requirements as well as the waiting or adjustment period. “It’s best to check these issues out with a highly-skilled family law […]

While the many meetings being held all over the U.S. dealing with immigration reform still seem to be producing positive feedback, there has still been no movement in Washington. In what many term as the greatest frustration of the century, immigration reform advocates are still bemoaning the fact that not much is really being done about smart immigration reform in the Capitol. The grassroots feedback seems to still be fairly positive, but since no one […]

Compare them. Most smartphones boast Wi-Fi capability. But this capability is one of the first things to fail when it matters most. Ask your friends at CPR. So many smartphones have Wi-Fi capability now; the feature has almost become standard. If you’re shopping for such a phone, you might compare. For instance, the Apple iPhone 3GS is probably the most expensive; it does boast a battery-life that rivals the Great Bunny, and of course has […]

While motorcycles capture the heart of the rebel on the open road, they are dangerous and in the event of a crash, many bikers don’t survive. Just taking a good hard look at a motorcycle is enough to point out that they have no protection for the rider. No seatbelts, airbags, bumpers like on cars or even crumple zones. Bikers are right out there in the wind, totally exposed to not only the elements, but […]

Some days it doesn’t pay to get out of bed. In this recent car crash, the victim did nothing wrong; he was, simply in the wrong place at the wrong time, directly in the path of a speeding vehicle. Car accidents happen far too often according to yearly statistics. “Unfortunately, no matter how carefully “we” may drive, there is no accounting for the “other guy” on the road. A fact that Ellen Sharpiro’s family now […]
