For now, the American Red Cross, which oversees the 14 million units of stored blood, is awaiting more studies before changing its processing and storage practices...

It's a very Lebanese experience to watch Bedouin farm workers in the early morning light that illuminates distant mosques, as they carry crateloads of grapes to be pressed into a liquid that Islamic law forbids them, and most of their neighbors, from consuming. Alcohol production might seem incongruous in the overwhelmingly Muslim Middle East, but viniculture is an integral part of Lebanese culture - and not just because of the country's large Christian minority.
