With the holidays coming to an end it comes with lots of extra foods that can be kept and eaten later. Here are some tps for frozen food safety. Food stored constantly at 0 °F will always be safe. Only the quality sufers with lengthy freezer storage. Freezing keeps food safe by slowing the movement of molecules, causing microbes to enter a dormant stage. Freezing preserves food for extended periods because it prevents the growth of microorganisms that cause both food spoilage and foodborne illness.
Does Freezing Destroy Bacteria & Parasites? Freezing to 0 °F inactvates any microbes bacteria, yeasts and molds present in food. Once thawed, however, these microbes can again become actve, multplying under the right conditons to levels that can lead to foodborne illness. Since they will then grow at about the same rate as microorganisms on fresh food, you must handle thawed items as you would any perishable food.
Nutrient Retenton The freezing process itself does not destroy nutrients. In meat and poultry products, there is litle change in nutrient value during freezer storage.
Freezer Storage Time: Because freezing keeps food safe almost indefnitely, recommended storage tmes are for quality only.
There are three safe ways to thaw food: in the refrigerator, in cold water, or in the microwave. It's best to plan ahead for slow, safe thawing in the refrigerator. Small items may defrost overnight; most foods require a day or two. Large items like turkeys may take longer, approximately one day for each 5 pounds of weight. When microwavedefrostng food, plan to cook it immediately afer thawing because some areas of the food may become warm and begin to cook during microwaving. If you ever queston the safety of your food, it’s best to throw it out and be safe. Use these guidelines to alleviate some questons you may have about freezing foods.

Bob and Sharon were married on November 19, 1966, in Eau Claire. Later they moved to Wausau and bought a house. Their next-door neighbors were Scott and Michele. Thirty years ago, about a year after their 25th anniversary, Bob lost his wedding ring, upsetting Sharon who had bought it for him. She never quit yearning to fnd it and put it back on his fnger. They moved to another city and after other moves, landed in Altoona.
During those years while Scott worked in his lilacs, took out a picket fence on the lot line, and cleaned up, he found a wedding ring. He and Michele had no clue about fnding the owner, although they wanted to and tried.
While living in Eau Claire Sharon developed dementia and Bob became her caretaker for several years, she later moved to a memory care facility. She passed away on November 18, 2022. Her funeral was set for Friday, December 2nd.
In Wausau, Scott had kept the ring in his jewelry box, and he passed away in March of 2022. Michele was urged by family members to search for the ring’s owner. Using the date inscribed in the ring she searched the Wausau Daily Herald archives and Sharon’s obituary, which had just then been published in Eau Claire, popped up on a tribute page. Michele recognized Sharon’s picture as the neighbor of long ago. With the city and church listed in the obituary, she called and left a message for Bob. Two hours before Sharon’s funeral the church secretary asked Bob if he had lost a wedding ring and handed him a note. He called Michele, identifed the ring, she put it in the mail, and he is wearing it again.
The federal government’s department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has a goal of preventng and ending homelessness. To do this, HUD created Contnuums of Care (CoCs) in the mid-1990s to coordinate local access to housing for individuals and families that are homeless or about to be homeless. This access to housing is achieved through housing-related coordinated entry programs, ran by the CoCs. These programs screen individuals for eligibility and help connect them with services or resources to help them prevent or escape homelessness. Individuals are prioritzed for coordinated entry based on those with the greatest needs or those who are most vulnerable (I.e., any disabilites, feeing violence, pregnant or with children). These programs are person-centered and optmize choice for the individual choosing to partcipate. These programs ofen have outreach teams that go out into the community to meet people where they are and seek out those that are living on the streets to tell them about the coordinated entry process. If you are unsure of which agency(s) run your local coordinated entry program or you or someone you know is homeless, reach out to 21-1 for informaton on how to get connected to coordinated entry in your area.

This year marks the 28th anniversary of the national day of service. This day was established to honor the life and legacy of Dr. King and to encourage all Americans to volunteer to improve their communities. Americans celebrated the frst ofcial Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, the only federal holiday commemorating an African-American, on Monday, January 20, 1986. In 1994, Congress designated the holiday as a national day of service, and marking the third Monday in January every year as the Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service. Dr. King advocated for non-violent resistance to overcome injustice as a means of lifting racial oppression. Dr. King received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964; the youngest person ever to receive the high honor. On April 4, 1968 at age 39, Dr. King was assassinated in Memphis, Tennessee as he stood on the balcony of his hotel. Dr. King had traveled to Memphis to lead a march in support of striking sanitation workers. According to Dr. King, the purpose of education is to enable one to sift and weigh evidence, to discern the true from the false, the real from the unreal, and the facts from the fction. The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. We must remember that intelligence is not enough. Intelligence plus character, that is the true goal of education.
