Office potlucks can come with their own set of pitfalls
SUMMARY: As Thanksgiving approaches, office potlucks and holiday gatherings are back, but they come with risks. Experts like Dr. Katherine Schloffer from the University of Maryland Medical Center emphasize the importance of proper food handling, temperature control, and avoiding foodborne illnesses.

When enjoying leftovers, reheat to at least 165°F to ensure safety.

Center-right party wins most votes in Greenland’s parliamentary election as Trump seeks control
SUMMARY: The center-right Demokraatit Party won Greenland’s parliamentary elections, surprising many as the territory contemplates its status amid U.S. interest, particularly from President Trump.
