Two countries, located side by side in the Mediterranean sea. They share a similar climate, the Mediterranean sun, and many of the same landscapes.

Raul Alvizzo came by train from Valencia, Spain to Florence, Italy. Today would be his last trip to Italy and he would never return. As with his past visits, Florence looked no differently to him than when he first came to the city from his small home town just outside Rome with his mother and father thirty years earlier at the age of ten.

I'll be damned if I don’t get high blood pressure. Saltine by the Beach, a very ingenious if not a risqué name, but the name is not the only shady topic at this restaurant. Saltine by the beach is ironically by the beach and the beach is naturally beautiful so the restaurant automatically gets points for scenery.

Backgrounder: The Dangers of GMO Foods M-Claire Barasubiye Genetically Modified Foods are killing Canadians and the Environment. Genetically Modified Organisms play a dangerous role in Canadian societies. Today, over 80% of Canada's third largest grain export, corn, is genetically modified.

Several years ago, after deciding to redecorate my living room, I visited Arhaus Furniture. The thing about decorating is that my tastes never seem to match my budget, which is how I got into this gardening mess. Arhaus carried table accents that consisted of a shallow round or square ceramic dish full of lush, green, neatly manicured grass.
