Scientists performed a chemical analysis on fragments from 34 pottery sieves discovered in Poland to determine their purpose. Until now, experts weren't sure whether such sieves were used to make cheese, beer or honey. Though there is no definitive test for cheese, Richard Evershed at ...

Cookies can be health snacks

While the bounty of summer fruits has ended, dried fruits offer a healthy alternative and are a good choice when fresh fruits aren't available. Dried fruits are devoid of the water content that is so characteristic of fruits. Fruits are dried by drawing out the water content, either by sun-drying or using specialized machines.

Good time at Sparetime

Good time at Sparetime My first step into Sparetime left me somewhat taken aback by the austerity of the place. Considering its rep as the city's premiere craft cocktail establishment, my expectations ran to walls of art and comfy chairs. Instead, I found myself pondering the vibe perched on the edge of a not-that-comfortable bar stool. Then it hit me like a 106–proof whiskey. It's the perfect blank canvas to encourage conversation.
