Iranian militias and Hezbollah members have been fighting on the same front in the Syrian civil war for many years. With the start of the war in the Gaza Strip, attention was…

On a map, Nova Scotia resembles a duck or a lobster — both appropriate shapes for a province defined by its proximity to the North Atlantic Ocean. But the landscapes, seascapes and, um, people of Canada’s second-smallest province are as diverse as anywhere in the country: drive for an hour in any direction and you’ll find completely different scenery and cultural heritage. The coastline, lapped by the world’s highest tides, is dotted with French Acadian villages and their towering stone and wooden churches. The opposite rocky coast is dotted with silvery sands and fishing villages founded by European and black…

Barriers include limited access to food distribution sites due to scheduling, rural location, and transportation issues. To address these issues, Yolo Food Bank and Sutter Health created the Cultivo program. This brings monthly pop-up food distributions to fields,…
