WATER TAXI IN VENICE ;-)
For Smile on Saturday
Laggiù si intravede nella nebbia Santa Maria della Salute (o chiesa della Salute o semplicemente La Salute).
Una basilica di Venezia eretta nell'area della Punta della Dogana, da dove risalta nel panorama del Bacino di San Marco e del Canal Grande. Progettata da Baldassare Longhena con attenzione ai modelli del Palladio, è una delle migliori espressioni dell'architettura barocca veneziana. La sua costruzione rappresenta un ex voto alla Madonna da parte dei veneziani per la liberazione dalla peste che tra il 1630 e il 1631 decimò la popolazione, come era avvenuto in precedenza per la chiesa del Redentore. Il culto divenne così radicato a Venezia che la Vergine Maria venne aggiunta all'elenco dei santi patroni della città di Venezia. Nel dicembre del 1921 papa Benedetto XV l'ha elevata al rango di basilica minore.

Prince George Winyah Church is an Anglican church in Georgetown, South Carolina. Prince George Winyah is one of the oldest continuous congregations in South Carolina, and the church building is one of the oldest churches in continuous service in South Carolina. Prince George Winyah (Anglican) and Churchyard was named to the National Register of Historic Places on May 6, 1971.
Starting in 1716, Anglican parishes were electoral and administration units in South Carolina government. Therefore, Prince George Parish and Prince George Winyah Parish can also refer to an electoral and administrative district that had the same geographic boundaries as this church.
The earliest vestry records for Prince George Winyah are January 13, 1737. A subscription campaign for a new church at Winyah was begun in 1737. This was supplemented by an import tax at the port and £1,000 from the colonial Assembly. Starting in 1740, the bricks were collected. Land was donated by William Screven, who was the first Baptist minister in Carolina, and his son Elisha Screven. Construction was begun in the mid-1750s. The cornerstone was laid in 1745.

A carbon tax is an environmental tax on emissions of carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a heat-trapping "greenhouse" gas. The purpose of a carbon tax is to protect the environment by reducing emissions of carbon dioxide, helping to mitigate climate change. Some environmental taxes include other greenhouse gases; the global warming potential is an internationally accepted scale of equivalence for other greenhouse gases in units of tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent.
