...You’ll have to start out at Pinocchio’s (74 Winthrop Street), more commonly known as ’Nochs, for a good slice of Sicilian pizza. Their tomato and basil pizza is unbeatable and their subs are also fantastic, particularly the steak and cheese sub with grilled onions. A popular late night stop for the sober and inebriated alike, you can’t go wrong with ’Nochs pizza...
...Like thousands of others over the past three years, the mostly sub-Saharan African victims had embarked with the promise of safe passage into European Union territory from human traffickers who charge several thousand dollars for the two-day journey. Officials estimate that this year nearly 10,000 aspiring immigrants have reached Lampedusa, a rocky 9.6 sq. mi. island that sits between Sicily and North Africa. At least 11 died in July near the island of Malta, before the latest two incidents. On Sunday, 10 bodies were recovered after a boat with more than 30 immigrants overturned south of Lampedusa...

And while heavy traces of African blood are not unusual in Latin America, they tend to be linked to West Africa, where much of the slave trade to the Americas originated. Clearly, my ancestors got around...
...another surprise when, a few days later, the results from DNAPrint came in. The basic elements were similar, but the blend was different: 71% European, 26% Native American and 3% sub-Saharan African. Beyond a few inscrutable charts, there was little specific information...
