Times Square might be the most famous destination in the U.S. for ringing in the new year, but it's also extremely expensive. Local businesses in NYC – and many other famous locales across the U.S. – are notorious for hiking up their prices when big crowds are in town for a major event.

The last thing you want to do in the final hours of 2025 is wreck your finances over one night of festivities.

The best business credit cards for new businesses can get you $0 annual fees, as much as 5% back in rewards, expense-tracking tools and other features aimed at helping recently-established businesses.

An unusual clause in the North Dakota Constitution that limits the power of the courts kept the state’s near-total abortion ban from being struck down last month. Most state Supreme Courts require a majority vote to declare a law unconstitutional. But in North Dakota, it takes a supermajority — a vote of at least four justices — for the Supreme Court to strike down a law. That’s why the state’s 2023 abortion law remains on the books even though three of five justices on the high court found it unconstitutionally vague under the North Dakota Constitution.

Fourteen judges received retention scores of 90 percent or higher in the Las Vegas Review-Journal’s 2025 Judicial Performance Evaluation, meaning a significant majority of attorneys want them to stay on the bench. Other judges showed improvement from the most recent prior survey, conducted in 2019. UNLV’s Center for Research, Evaluation and Assessment handled this year’s poll for the Review-Journal. The survey allowed attorneys to provide anonymous feedback on judges about whether they should stay on the bench, as well as for the categories of administrative ability, legal ability and integrity.

Clark County lawyers gave positive feedback on most judges in the Las Vegas Review-Journal’s 2025 Judicial Performance Evaluation, but they thought five should be forced to hang up their robes.
