  • One-two punch of winter storms, canceled blood drives straining Red Cross blood supply

    Jan 31, 2019

    WATERTOWN, NY (Jan. 29, 2019) — The American Red Cross is reissuing its emergency call for blood donors to give now after multiple snow storms, frigid temperatures and the government shutdown have further reduced lifesaving donations.

Sources familiar with an unreleased draft plan approved last month by acting EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler told Politico that the chemicals PFOA and PFOS will remain unregulated under the Safe Drinking Water A...

  • An Instant Pot Success

    Jan 31, 2019

    By Gourmet May For Christmas this year I received an Instant Pot. It is this pretty cool little device that has 7-in-1 cooking functions including: pressure cooking, rice cooking, browning, slow cooking, sautéing, steaming and warming. I think if I knew how to do any of that stuff in the first place, I would be a little more excited. I took it out of the packaging and set it on the counter next to the toaster and patiently waited for it to make dinner for me. Much to my disappointment, it didn’t happen. So, after watching an overabundance of...
