The holidays are all about giving. Most people focus primarily on giving to their friends and family members. However, there are some people out there who give as much as they can to people they don’t even know. These people want to spread as much holiday cheer as they can with as many people as possible.

While many people out there are very kindhearted, there are unfortunately some who seek to take advantage of this good natured helping. They set up fake charities to scam kind people out of their hard earned money. That is why, if a person is looking to make donations this holiday season, they need to do so carefully. That way, they can be sure that their money is going where they intended it to.

Here are a few tips from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to help you make safe and s...

While it may feel like fall just started, winter has arrived in parts of California. Soon enough, the entire state will be dealing with a chill in the air and storm clouds gathering on the horizon. Rains, snow, and ice will begin to affect the roads, creating dangerous driving conditions. When this happens, drivers need to proceed with caution, or risk being in a fender bender.

As road conditions worsen, drivers are supposed to adjust their driving accordingly. By doing so, they decrease the chances of themselves being in an accident.

When it comes to driving in rainy weather, drivers should slow down. Sometimes in bad rain, even going the posted speed limit can be dangerous...

As holidays such as Christmas and New Year’s roll around, there are plenty of parties to attend. Families get together to catch up and reflect on the passing year. These parties are full of fun, and typically, full of drinking. As long as there is no driving after the drinking, this is no problem for adults. After all, they can drink whenever they like.

However, problems can arise when the kids, especially teens, see all of the adults drinking. The fact that teens want to grow up sooner rather than later is no secret. One of their favorite requests is to join their parents and other adult relatives in drinking.

Some parents are fine with this request. They see no problem with it since the teen is in a safe and controlled environment surrounded by trusted adults...

Just about everyone knows that driving while distracted can be a very dangerous practice. One second of not paying attention is all it takes for a driver to find himself in a bad accident. That is why a driver needs to constantly give their full attention to the road while driving.

In order to encourage drivers to remain focused, lawmakers usually enact laws that limit what drivers can do while driving.

Some of the basics here in California include:

• No texting while driving.
• No talking on the phone while driving.
• No using other electronic devices while driving.

California laws don’t cover all of the bases when it comes to distracted driving. For instance, eating while driving is not illegal in California, though it is considered to be a type of distracted driving...

Christmas trees are a big part of the holiday. No home could be considered decorated for Christmas without a tree. Everyone gets a tree, whether it is real or fake. For those who prefer to get a real Christmas tree every year, some may have noticed that the prices for them seem to have gone up here in California.

This has been a bit of a trend over the last few years as Christmas tree growers have gradually shifted away from growing trees for the holiday. Many of these growers have instead switched to grow what they consider to be more lucrative crops such as hazelnuts or even marijuana after its legalization.

This has led to an unfortunate shortage of the holiday icon. This in turn, has led to an increase in the price of trees as supplies become scarcer...

Nothing is quite as discouraging as being faced with what seems like and unsolvable problem. This is especially true when the problem is something that a loved one is facing. You want to help her out, but you have no idea how to do so. In no other scenario is this truer than when your loved one has been arrested.

The minute you learn of a loved one’s arrest, you want to get her out of jail. You do not want her sitting in a jail cell awaiting her trial. You decide that you have to bail her out, then you see her bail amount. Unfortunately in the state of California, bail is incredibly expensive. Even at its lowest prices, bail still costs several thousands of dollars. You have no idea how you are going to solve this problem.

At least, that was the case until you came across Long Beach...

What many people may not know, is that they do not have to break their bank account to rescue someone from jail. All they really need to do is talk to one of the bail agents here at Long Beach Bail Bonds.

As Alaska deals with the damages caused by a magnitude 7.0 earthquake, Californians are being reminded of the dangers of earthquakes. Us Californians are used to hearing about the next “Big One,” but we often tend to forget about it.

However, this is not something we should forget about, so here is a condensed list of things to remember about earthquakes

Prepping Tips For Massive Earthquakes
