When those sugar peddlers in green sashes come to your door this Girl Scout cookie season there will be a new treat on the menu.
Unless you’ve been hiding out under the covers shivering, nursing a fever and clutching your achy bones, you probably know this has been a brutal flu season.
What you may not know is there are measures you can take to avoid the flu -- and most of them are pretty darned simple. So, what are they?
January 14, 2013 In an announcement this morning on Good Morning America on ABC, co-host Robin Roberts will make her return to the morning show within a couple of weeks.
After last year's flu season, which health officials say was one of the mildest in the past 30 years, the illness is back with a vengeance. Well, if you're unlucky enough to currently have the flu, at least a new Facebook app can help track down the diseased jerk who gave it to you in the first place.
January 7, 2013 While it may be a brand new year and everyone is excited about a fresh start, there is something that comes along with this wintery weather that people don't like: The flu. Doctors have said this is the worst outbreak of the flu in more than a decade, especially for babies and older folks.
January 3, 2013 Mix 93-1, 101.5 KNUE, Hot 107-3 Jamz and 96X have teamed with Carter BloodCare of East Texas to host the annual Call To Arms Blood Drive from Jan. 7-12 to help save the lives of East Texans and to raise the blood supply levels here in the area. It's comforting to know that for every pint of blood that is donated, it can help save up to three lives.

Who was the lucky Mom?
January 1, 2013 Maybe it's not just the effects of the New Year's Eve drinks that you're feeling today. Many people in East Texas are sick with something other than the "brown bottle flu" right now.
Flu cases are up in Texas. Emergency rooms from Dallas to Tyler to Houston are saying they're seeing more flu cases right now, with fevers of 102 to 103 and that yucky, awful, achey feeling. And of course the other pleasantries associated with the flu that we don't need to mention.
With flu cases on the rise, what can be done?
December 27, 2012 Every year around the holidays, many of us eat a ton, and then a week later we wonder why in the world we did that to ourselves. Because it tasted good!
If you had to give up the skinny jeans for looser pants this week you're not alone. Carrie Underwood said on Twitter this week, "Had a great Christmas! Lots of family and lots of FOOOOD!!! Had to put the sweatpants on! #stuffedandhappy"
No matter what your size or weight loss goals, a new program will kick off in January in Tyler.
During the holiday season there are lots of chances to drink. When it is time to head home, how will you get there? There are plenty of reasons not to drive after you have been drinking. Will you make the right decision this Christmas?
