  • “If You’re Early, You’re on Time”0

    I’m a little early with this tribute — but as my grandpa always said, “If you’re early, you’re on time. If you’re on time, you’re late. And if you’re late, you’re out the door!” That quote has stuck with me my entire life. My wife will probably never understand why it’s so important for me

    Some people still hold disdain for me, but it would be wasteful not to use myself as a cautionary tale if it opens eyes to our county’s most recent proclamation. I survived a severely harsh childhood home despite having every toy imaginable. My cousins never suspected our family’s reality because I never even considered telling

  • Cardigan Weather0

    We’ve all heard of the term “sweater weather” and, as we slowly inch toward full-on sweater dressing, I’d like to take a moment and break it down to one particular type of sweater — the season-less staple of a cardigan. Cardigans are knitted garments, open-fronted with buttons, zippers, or snaps, and, of course, there are

  • UPMC Dermatologist: Don’t Put Away the Sunscreen Yet0

    As the days grow shorter and temperatures drop, sunscreen often gets pushed to the back of the cabinet. After all, if the sun does not feel as strong in September and October, do you really need to apply it daily? The truth is yes. Your skin still benefits from protection long after summer ends. Fall

  • The Roving Sportsman… Avoiding “Gamey” Venison0

    Over the years, folks trying venison for the first time have complained that the taste was “gamey”. That is, it had a strong, almost pungent flavor – unlike beef, which was much milder in taste. More often than not, overcooking of venison added to the unpleasantness of the experience, since venison is best served when

If you look up the definition of the word “plunderer,” you’ll get the following definition: robber, raider, thief,

    The silence that follows devastating loss can either consume or create. For Diane Dutko, executive director of ThinkBIG, that silence became a calling that transforms tragedy into hope for families facing childhood cancer.

    This week, I think I hit my first real case of writer’s block. I kept racking my brain for something to write, but nothing seemed to click. Then, while having dinner with Lauren (pulled BBQ chicken — a meal we have every Tuesday), she started teasing me about how I still haven’t moved a piece
