High consumption of fruits, vegetables, beans, nuts, bread and cereals
Use of olive oil to cook and as a condiment
Moderate quantities of fish, little meat
Small/moderate quantities of rich cheese and whole yogurt
Moderate wine consumption, usually with meals

North of Naples and South of Rome
In the area between Rome and Naples, in Lazio and Campania regions, there are several small towns and medieval borgo. In many ways, these communities in Caserta Province are a microcosm of all the things visitors to Italy look for: history, culture, traditions and a local community waiting to show you around. These towns stand out for palaces, museums, cathedrals and convents from the XI to the XV Centuries.

Crisis, Accountability and Responsibility
This is the story of two ships, their masters and how they reacted in the aftermath of a mishap. You have heard of the Costa Concordia; a ship with state-of-the-art navigation and communications technology. The other ship was a 1637 ton sailing barque that lost all its masts in a storm off the Falkland Islands in December 1905.

This valuable service is constantly being threatened by budget cutbacks
