Miller High Life Introduces Ice Cream That Tastes Like A Dive Bar
RENO, Nev. (AP) — Bats have infested a Nevada fire sta- tion for the sec- ond time in seven years, forcing officials to tem- porarily close it.
The bats have been flying around the living quarters of the small fire station between Reno and Carson City and dead bats have been found
in a bay where an ambulance is parked, said Truckee Meadows Fire Protection District spokesperson Adam Mayberry.
Officials in 2015 managed to get bats out of the fire station but their return has generated health and safety con- cerns, he said.
Bats can transmit
rabies and other viruses to humans and their feces can trans- mit viral, bacteri- al, fungal and parasitic infec- tions, Mayberry said.
Firefighters and rescue workers based at the sta- tion dating to the 1950s will be relocated until the bats are gone.

Aug. 16 (UPI) -- A new novelty ice cream product is actually meant to recall the flavor of peanut shells on a bar floor.
Miller High Life has partnered with Tipsy Scoop, maker of alcohol-
infused ice cream, to create the Ice Cream Dive Bar.
The product com- bines beer, peanut swirl, tobacco smoke flavor, caramel and a dark choco- late dip. The peanut swirl is designed to mimic the peanut shells frequently found
on bar floors.
Tipsy and Miller's collaboration is a celebration of the 100th anniversary of the ice cream bar. Each of the bars contain up to 5% alcohol.
A six-pack costs $36.
