How do you simultaneously show both the interior and exterior spaces of a building? I've had some success with glass-fronted façades. Here's my attempt with a building that did not afford this convenience: the Mole Antonelliana in Turin, Italy, housing the Museo Nazionale del Cinema.

When President Clinton banned assault rifles in 1994, mass shootings dropped by 43%. After Republicans let the ban expire in 2004, they increased by 243% — please don’t tell me bans don’t work, because I don’t want to hear it.
