  • Sharing the love

    Romance is not dead, but it is a little low on cash.

    With Valentine’s Day a week away, stores, restaurants and advertisers want you reaching for your wallet to buy the mushy cards, decadent boxes of chocolate, red roses, diamond earrings and expensive dinners that will demonstrate your love to your significant other.

TOP HEALTH HEADLINES

  • Heart of good health

    Every beat of Carson Barnes’ heart is precious.

    He knows each beat is one doctors didn’t think he’d have after he suffered two heart attacks in two weeks in 2006. Barnes, 74, lost function in 52 percent of his heart, and an internal defibrillator has kept it beating regularly for almost four years.

  • Temper, temper! It's Valentine's Day

    If ever there was a holiday that called for professional-level candy-making skills, Valentine’s Day is it.

    If ever you need some help in attaining those skills, “Chocolates and Confections” by Peter P. Greweling (Wiley, 2010) is the book. Part of a series from the Culinary Institute of America, it will have you making candy-box candy in no time.
