I have never been to the west coast, but I have heard about how beautiful it is. It wasn’t easy to…

Must do activities for your Costa Rican vacations in San Jose include museums, restaurants, shopping, and nature. The Tico capital has it all and instead of zipping through on your way to beaches on the coast and or volcanoes in the mountains, consider spending some time to soak in the spirit of this very cultural city. San Jose is also a great base for daytrips to nearby attractions or to break up long trips if your Costa Rica vacation includes multiple destinations on the Pacific and Caribbean…

The Klamath River Basin has been fraught environmental resource management issues that have been both highly politicized and publicized in the American West. The problems of water allocation in this region have been the result of conflicting interests between fishermen, tribes, wildlife, and farmers, which rely on scarce water resources for their livelihoods.

It is nearly impossible to go anywhere these days without seeing an advertisement, or something relating to The Walt Disney Company (Disney). Perhaps you are seeing this advertised using a cable network like ABC or ESPN, or possibly on one of the newspaper companies that used to belong to Capital Cities/ ABC Inc. (ABC).

enough evidence to officially uncover who The Zodiac was. Due to this lack of information and wide range of evidence against every main suspect, the true Zodiac Killer will never be discovered. The Zodiac spread horror and terror throughout Northern California from 1969 to 1974 (Zodiac Killer). Although police credited him with five murders,…

It had been a while since things had been this perfect. The oddly homely smell of Felix’s musty loft somehow gave Sarah a sense of safety. She wasn’t concerned about her sisters’ well-being anymore because a cure was in hand, and after all these years, she finally knew that the constant fear that her immunity to the disease would render her alone and frightened, was a fear that would no longer haunt her every thought. In the background, she could hear Alison and Felix bickering about whether it…
