Frost-Free Faucets. If you live in a cold climate, freezing temperatures can turn water to ice in conventional spigots or hose bibs, and damage the valves or break the pipes leading to the faucet.

In news reports, study leader Carlos Augusto Monteiro of Brazilâs University of SÃ£o Paulo noted that ultra-processed foods are manufactured and marketed âto replace (minimally processed) foods and freshly prepared drinks, dishes and meals.â
Foods processed at their peak to lock in nutritional quality and freshness include canned tomatoes, frozen fruit and vegetables, and canned tuna. Foods with ingredients added for flavor and texture (sweeteners, spices, oils, colors and preservatives) include jarred pasta sauce, salad dressing, yogurt and cake mixes. Ready-to-eat foods â such as crackers, granola and deli meat â are more heavily processed.
