Blood is perhaps the most needed resource in the organ transplant process. It is used during operations and is needed to sustain life for those who are waiting for organ transplants. In coming days and months, Upstate New york Transplant Services (UNYTS) is hosting blood drives all over the Western New York Community.

Covered with blood, gore, and gashes, dozens of moaning zombies began shuffling past. What could be responsible for the sudden zombie invasion, we wondered. Sunspots? A disease? The financial meltdown (one … - Today, 12:12am
