By FireRescue1 Staff When we asked our readers in 2015 whether they’d rather fight fire in extreme heat or extreme cold, the responses were fairly divided. One thing we all agree on is that neither is our first choice. Yet, as one responder said, when the tone drops, you go. Heat-related illness is serious business, and firefighters are particularly at risk when temperatures hit the 90s and humidity hovers around 80 percent.

Properly storing your soapy creations extends the amount of time the product looks and feels its best. For cold process soap , proper storage includes plenty of air flow. On the other hand, melt and pour soap should be wrapped immediately. Improper storage can promote dreaded orange spots , faded colors and glycerin dew . Luckily, it’s easy to prevent these problems with a little know-how. How products should be stored largely depends on what the product is made of, and the shelf life of the ingredients. For nearly all bath and beauty products , it’s best to store them in a dry and cool place. Excessive moisture in the air can promote DOS (read more about DOS here) and cause bath bombs to prematurely fizz. Extreme heat can cause melt and pour (or even cold process) soap to melt, and the texture of lotions and balms to change. If placed in direct sunlight, soapy colors and fragrances may fade. If you live in a hot climate, find the coolest and darkest area of your home to store your...

Recently by Joseph Mercola: The Guilty Pleasure That Could Save You From HeartDisease Story at-a-glance Recent research indicates some cases of nasal congestion may be alleviated by cooling and decreasing the humidity in the air you breathe The ideal level of relative humidity for sinus health, and to prevent growth of mold and fungi in your home, is between 35-45 percent The vast majority of chronic sinusitis cases may be due to exposure to mold or fungi rather than bacteria, which antibiotics cannot treat.

Bruno Goussault, 63, is both a scientist and an economist. He has been training chefs like Fabio Trabocchi at the Ritz-Carlton and Michel Richard at Citronelle, both in Washington, Dan Barber at Blue Hill in New York and Daniel Boulud at Daniel, also in New York, not only how to use sous vide but also to understand the science behind it. Where Escoffier organized the way chefs cook, dividing the professional kitchen into stations (sauces, cold foods, sautéing, pastry), Goussault has reprogrammed their approach to temperature, technique and taste -- their fundamental understanding of cooking. At Charlie Trotter's in Chicago, the intense heat and scrape of pans against the stove is giving way to an almost placid atmosphere, the barely audible hum of water baths that run 24 hours a day. Dufresne, the chef at the innovative Manhattan restaurant WD -50, calls Goussault's contribution to cooking "monumental." The advancements he has made are on par with the invention of t...
