where they have attacked a human body and eaten it. In these cases, the unfortunate person had already died from another cause, and it was not the piranhas that killed them. The majority of piranha bites on fit and healthy human swimmers have been attributed to fish defending their broods rather than hunting for their next meal.
“This is serious business,” Patrick said.If enacted into law, Texas would have one of the most restrictive bans in the country, according to Katharine Neil Harris, a researcher in drug policy at the Baker Institute for Public Policy at Rice University.
“I'm not aware of any other states without recreational marijuana markets that also prohibit consumable hemp products from having any THC,” Harris said.A jumbled legal landscapeStates that prohibit recreational marijuana have
to regulate the THC market, including Alabama, Kentucky and Tennessee.In Florida, Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis vetoed a bill last year that would have put in place age restrictions and banned marketing directed toward children, stating that it would hurt small businesses.

Much of the food, of course, comes from the grounds around you.The Farm has a main kitchen, where there are complimentary breakfasts of fruit, veggies, yogurt, and coffee. You can also order from a menu of mostly egg dishes. The eggs, of course, are plucked from the hen house each morning. I was partial to the egg sandwich with a side salad, because I watched the waiter go out to the garden and fill a bowl full of greens after I ordered the salad.
The Farm is reservation-only for lunch and dinner—priority booking is given to guests staying at the resort. Those meals are comprised of vegetables from the garden and fish caught that day out at sea. No meat is on the menu.Guests can also dine by the beach at The Other Side, just a five-minute walk away; we did for a delicious mac-and-cheese and ribs combo one night. Or, the wonderful concierge Allie Saunders can arrange a ferry and golf cart for you to visit Harbour Island, just a 10-minute boat ride away. On Harbour Island, we ate at the Coral Sands’ Pink (very ornately-pink) Mermaid for dinner one evening, an Italian seafood haven overlooking the ocean.
