Fire Chief John Fruetel also said the oven door was open and the fire’s origin was at or near the stove. The family — the mother and her three children — had moved into the two-story house in the 2700 block of Penn Ave...

Will the next egg you crack come from a chicken raised in a roomier barn? Foodies and farmers are in unusual agreement on the answer: If not now, then soon enough.
