The insurer and an independent immunologist investigated and confirmed that the factory workers had healthier immune systems....

As long as there have been vehicles and drugs, motorists have been driving while high. But drugged driving is getting a lot of attention locally and nationally as data show a sharp increase in motorists who are impaired by drugs while behind the wheel.

And it's killing business for resorts and others that count heavily on winter tourists to bring in the bucks. It all started a few days after Christmas, when a major storm dumped more than a foot of snow across the region, insulating lakes that hadn't yet established a solid base of ice and slowing down the making of ice. Making matters worse, the heavy snow pushed down the existing ice, opening cracks...
