When a refrigerator stops cooling, you may automatically think it means you have to invest in a brand-new appliance. But before you take that pricey plunge, check a few things inside your refrigerator. First, is the gasket around the door of the fridge sealing properly? If cold air is leaking out, your appliance has to work harder. Is the refrigerator too packed with food? If the air vent inside is blocked, that could be why your fridge is warm. And finally, it may seem obvious, but it’s worth checking: Has the temperature setting been changed? If it’s off or set too high, it just needs to be readjusted.

Did you know that for every 10 minutes a car is idling, a pound of carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere?

The Parkmobile app can help prevent this waste of gas and time by eliminating your need to hunt for a place to park. With the app, not only can you find spots, but you also can reserve them and even refill a meter from your phone.

Many of us have ditched the iron for a steamer to blast away wrinkles on our clothing at home. But did you know a steamer can also be used for other things around the house? You can use the power of hot water and steam to blast and break up residue, grime and soap scum in the shower. Just run the steam over the bathtub, fixtures and tile and then wipe it all away with a soft towel. No need for chemical cleaners or bleach, and it’s gentle enough not to ruin grout between tiles, too.
