Kung hei fat choi! Happy New Year of the Monkey! Visit every major city in the world and you’ll find a Chinatown. And just as eclectic as the range of nations in which China’s migrant population has settled over the years, are the vibrant, individual neighborhoods that they have established. Each Chinatown is diverse but you’re always guaranteed to find a combination of bustling commerce, culture and authentic cuisine on any visit. From Europe to the United States, Latin America to Africa, here are our picks for the 10 best Chinatowns in the world (outside of Asia).
A foodie city itself, Melbourne was always
likely to have a Chinatown whose restaurants make for its biggest attraction.
From Little Bourke Street to Spring Street, the Chinatown strip mixes the newer
breed of authentic North Chinese and Sichuan restaurants with the more common
Cantonese dumpling joints. Lured by the 19th-century Australian gold
boom, Melbourne’s Chinatown community has been bustling since the 1850s.

If you’re meeting buddies in Chinatown in
Toronto then best make sure you specify which one – because there are six of
them. The city’s central Chinatown is the largest and between Dundas Street
West and Spadina Avenue Downtown is where you’ll find its array of restaurants,
stalls, herbalists and bars, in full effect, all day, everyday. Visit on a
weekend and make sure you pick up a newspaper to accompany your lazy dim sum
lunch – Hong Kong style.

London’s first Chinatown was once located
in Limehouse, a bustling riverside enclave in the east of the city. The area
was immortalized in the works of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle – a favorite sojourn
for fictional Sherlock Holmes when he was in need of something a little bit ‘stronger’
for his pipe! London’s modern Chinatown — complete with a grand new gate — is now firmly
established in the West End, a large contributor to the allure of Soho.
Traditionally Cantonese, the area is home to some of the best dumplings and dim
sum in the city, as well as the odd second-floor speakeasy bar – you’ve just
got to know where to go!
Pricing for The Z Hotel Soho
Established around 1848, Chinatown San Francisco is North America’s largest. Centered around Grant Avenue and
Stockton Street, the neighborhood is so popular with residents and tourists
that its attraction has become a problem — due to lack of space. Fortunately,
2016 is seeing expansion plans realized, as well as major makeovers for the
neighborhood’s famous alleyways. Which just means there’s even more reason to
visit North America’s biggest Chinatown the next time you’re in the city.
Pricing for Fairmont San Francisco
Home to the largest ethnic Chinese
population in Latin America, Lima’s “El Barrio Chino” — or just plain
Chinatown — is located in the heart of the city’s historical center. Of the
6,000 or so Chinese restaurants you can eat at, some date back as far as the
beginning of the 20th century. If you visit, make sure you sample
the Chifa, Chinese Peruvian fusion
Pricing for El Pardo DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel
Wind your way through the perennial bustle
of the Red Light District and out the other side of the lively Niuwmarkt square
and you’ll arrive in Amsterdam’s Chinatown. Expanding rapidly after the Second
World War, gambling houses, opium dens and restaurants sprung up in the area. These
days it’s only the restaurants you’ll find in plain sight – not that that’s to
say those nefarious parlors of ill repute aren’t lurking somewhere out there!
Pricing for Hotel Roemer
7. Johannesburg, South Africa
Initially arriving to work in the gold
mines of Transvaal, the Chinese migrant population was large enough to
establish two Chinatowns in the South African city of Johannesburg. The first
is located downtown at Commissioner Street (Old Chinatown) and the latter in
the eastern neighborhood of Cyrildene (New Chinatown). New Chinatown is king
these days and home to the pick of the city’s Chinese restaurants, supermarkets
New York is home to the second biggest
Chinatown in North America, after San Francisco. Located in Lower Manhattan,
the neighborhood grew so fast in the latter half of the 20th century
that it almost swallowed neighboring Little Italy – although we won’t get into
that right now. One of the liveliest and most eclectic Chinatowns we’ve ever
come across, the area boasts cuisine from just about every Chinese region
imaginable. Like London’s Chinatown, New York’s also provides a home to any
number of seedy, chic and late night bars.
Pricing for The Roxy Hotel Tribeca
Bringing up the rear in bronze place with
North America’s third largest Chinatown, Vancouver shouldn’t feel too bad for
itself, after all, nowhere sums up the city’s vibrant and diverse culture like
its Chinatown does. A balanced neighborhood, Vancouver’s Chinatown reflects its
history with traditional restaurants and stores while embracing the future with
its hip, buzzing bar scene.
Pricing for Rosewood Hotel Georgia
Given the title of the article, the fact
that Havana’s Chinatown has seen far better days, makes it a slightly incongruous
final addition. However, it once was great, in fact, it was the largest Chinatown
in Latin America. Nowadays, Havana’s Chinatown retains a sense of its past
glories but has the country’s 1959 revolution to thank for the emigration of
the once large, enterprising Chinese community.

Sometimes there are complicated answers to simple questions, like the one above. Other times, basketball can be a very simple game. The Knicks were one of the worst teams in basketball for the first two months of the season, but since the calendar moved to 2014, the team has won six of seven games against some quality opponents. The reasons for the turnaround are both simple and deep at the same time.READ MORE: Remote Option Returning To NYC Schools As Omicron Continues To Fuel Nationwide Spike In COVID Cases
This run has started at the defensive end. In their last seven games, the Knicks have allowed a full seven points fewer per 48 minutes than they did in November and December. Their defensive rating (points allowed per 100 possessions) has dropped all the way from 105.8 to 99.9. Their numbers in their last seven games would put them as the eighth-best defensive team in the league. Before this run they were 26th in the NBA. The change is staggering.
Why the defense is better is harder to figure out. Tyson Chandler hasn’t played. Raymond Felton and Beno Udrih (both terrible defenders) have been playing prominent point-guard minutes, while Pablo Prigioni (a far superior defender) has been out with a toe injury. Toure’ Murry has made a difference, with the team managing a team-best 95.6 defensive rating when he has been on the floor over the past seven games. The three-point defense has been better, with teams shooting only 30 percent since the new year, as compared to 37 percent before. Teams are hitting one fewer three a game despite attempting two more per game. Is this better defense at the arc or a run of good luck against teams not shooting well? It’s hard to tell, but whatever the reason, it is working.
The improved defense might also be traced to limiting other team’s transition opportunities. That goes to the offense, where the team has shot substantially better in the New Year, with their field-goal percentage jumping all the way from 43 percent to 46.5 percent. Their three-point shooting has gotten better too, jumping from 35 percent to 38 percent. Fewer missed shots mean fewer opportunities for opposing teams to run. The Knicks have been the worst team in transition defense this year, according to Synergy Sports, and fewer misses means other teams can run less. The Knicks are turning it over slightly more in 2014, but opponents’ steal numbers are largely the same, making their number of fast-break opportunities off of those turnovers static.
Those improved shooting stats closely resemble the offensive numbers the team put up during their very successful offensive year last season. The only thing keeping their point totals down (96.8 ppg in their last seven vs. 100 ppg last year) is the nine fewer three pointers per game the team has attempted. That’s nearly three fewer-made three pointers per game in their last seven as compared to last season’s totals (7.7 vs 10.9). Without Steve Novak, the three-point shooting likely won’t ever catch up, but the other numbers are. The offense is finally looking good again.
A couple of individuals have also really improved, which has in turn helped the team. Iman Shumpert’s points per game has doubled from 6.2 in December and January to over 13 points per game over his last seven. His shooting percentages have gone through the roof, from 35.9 FG percentage/30.5 3PT percentage to 51.6 FG percentage/52.6 3PT percentage. His minutes have also ticked up seven per game as Mike Woodson has gained more confidence in him. He’s only taking three more shots per game, more or less all threes, but his offense has been a game-changer in the backcourt. His defense has improved as well, with his defensive rating dropping from 102 to 95.7.READ MORE: Driver Charged After 15-Year-Old Girl Struck, Killed By School Bus In Brooklyn Hit-And-Run
The Knicks are finally putting him on opposing point guards (except Goran Dragic for much of Monday night) and it has paid dividends. Shumpert’s net rating (difference between offensive and defensive rating) in the last seven games is a whopping 16.9, by far the best number on the team. He should be, more than anyone else, credited for much of this turnaround.
Most of the Knicks have much better net ratings in the last seven games, but there are a couple that really need to be pointed out. Despite his raw numbers being better, the team is performing much better with Andrea Bargnani on the court. In the last seven games the team is outscoring opponents by more than 12 points per 100 possessions, while in 2013 they were being outscored by more than seven. Felton’s net rating has gone through the roof as well, jumping from -4.3 to +9.6.
The only two players with a negative net rating the last seven games are J.R. Smith (-3) and Tim Hardaway, Jr (-21.2!!!). Though the latter must be a bit of an aberration, perhaps it shows that Hardaway, Jr. is not ready for more than 15-20 minutes a game quite yet. As good as Smith’s +/- was against Philadelphia (+20), it was just as bad against the Suns (-15). The team is not out of the woods with him quite yet, even though his benching seems to have improved his shot selection. Carmelo Anthony’s improving assist numbers should also be noted, going from 2.8 to 4.1. The ball is moving extremely well.
The real issue is whether or not all of this is sustainable. The argument can be made that many Knicks were playing below their career averages before 2014 arrived, and are now simply getting their numbers back to their career baselines. Will the improved defense continue? Will the Knicks finally be able to sustain an increased defensive effort under Woodson, something they haven’t done for more than a year? If that’s the case, then this run might be more sustainable than people think.

Catch me… if you can
My sister’s murder gutted me… then I got angry. Real angry.
If you’re a sexual predator, I’m coming for you. I won’t let you hurt another woman, ever again. The hatred in my eyes will be the last thing you see.
Each kill blackens my shattered soul. Still, I have no regrets. That’s how messed up I am, how far I’ve fallen.
Evil would have sucked me into its dark, sinister vortex if it hadn’t been for him. He’s flat-out gorgeous, a total alpha, and so damn intriguing. I find him impossible to resist. Being with him gives me hope, something I haven’t felt in a long, long time.
The only blemish on his beautiful, fearless soul is that he’s spending every waking moment hunting me.
VENGEANCE can be read as a standalone, but Stoni recommends reading DAMAGED first since Danielle Fox and Cooper Grant are secondary characters in that story.
What readers are saying...
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Vengeance is 100 gold stars!
My goodness… I am at a loss of words. Yes my friends that is a good thing. The emotions are still rolling off of me in waves. I am on a huge book hangover and I am not sure how to get over it. I don't think I want to anyways.
The passion for vengeance runs deep and I could not get it out of my head on how much pain was pushed to the limits. But that is what Stoni does. She will bring the hurt so you can feel what her characters feel. But she will always come out on top at the end. I loved this story and more so the series. I am anxiously waiting for more!! ~ Crystal's Book World, Amazon Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ SIZZLING, SENSUAL, SUSPENSEFUL
I am a self-proclaimed Stoni Alexander addict and proud of it. Take my advice and read VENGEANCE. You will fall in love with Stoni Alexander as fast as I did! It’s available on Kindle Unlimited too! ~ MS12DZN, Amazon Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Phenomenal read!
Reading a book by Stoni Alexander is a guarantee for one incredible experience! This author writes characters who are passionate, strong yet slightly flawed by unresolved emotional pain due to tragic circumstances in their pasts. Her storytelling grabs your attention and takes you a suspenseful and emotional journey with amazing points to enjoy along the way.
Cooper and Danielle’s story is a passionate and suspenseful romance with several layers to their stories. Well loved characters from previous books appear and participate in the storyline making the reading experience even better.
While this book might be able to be read as a standalone, it will be much more satisfying to have read the Stoni’s previous books or at least book #1 in the Vigilantes series.
It’s a crying shame I can’t give this book more than 5-stars, because it’s just so incredibly good. ~ Sara B., Amazon Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Deserves more than five stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Wow! I couldn’t believe that a second book in a series could be so good but I should have known Stoni would do it! Vengeance is the perfect title for this book…I cannot express properly how thrilling this book is. The romance is hot and the action is exciting. The author truly wrote a best seller. ~ Nora Houston, Amazon Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Stars
Stoni Alexander does it again! This was a fantastic and fast paced read. Cooper is my type of hero and Danielle is his perfect partner. The love story of Cooper and Danielle is set amidst a background of heartbreak, family loss, suspense and betrayal. The connection these two have is immediate and intense as they find their way to each other. I enjoyed meeting the secondary cast of characters introduced as it added to the depth of the story. This book hit all the right notes and had all the feels. I highly recommend it! ~ Amazon Customer Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I'm Speechless
This book about Cooper and Danielle was so awesome I couldn’t put the book down. It was non-stop action, adventure, drama, love, steamy sex and angst. The characters were so well written with their backgrounds, the secrets, the flaws and the sense that family is not just blood...the strong connection, the fireworks, the love and romance were spectacular...supporting characters were also amazing and really helped make this such an awesome story. I really loved how this integrated with the rest of the Touch series characters and really hope there will be more books in the series. ~ obie2930, Amazon Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Romantic Suspense
This story grabbed me from the very first page and did not let go until the very last. It is brilliantly crafted and full of twists and turns that will keep you on the edge of your seat. The suspense is riveting; the romance is steamy, and Danielle and Cooper are friends you want on your side when times are tough. I absolutely loved this story and would recommend it to those who like romantic suspense with endless action that will keep you turning the pages. ~ Sahar's Honest Reviews, Amazon Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ OMG!!! Love them!!
Omg! Cooper and Danielle’s story was off the charts. I love their chemistry and the type of h she is. I love that she was vulnerable but at the same time a kick a$$, I love that Cooper was not afraid to show her how he felt, what he did and what he wanted. This story had everything I wanted, a great story, awesome-kick a$$-well diverse characters. I love Stoni Alexander’s books and let me tell you I couldn't stop after the first one!!!!! I would recommend her books to anyone! Please go grab a copy!!!! ~ AV, Amazon Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ intriguing and intense
Book 2 in the Vigilantes series is so intriguing and intense. It’s Cooper’s and Danielle’s fantastic love story. They had an immediate attraction that just grew stronger as the story went along. The plot twists kept me engaged all the way through. So many adjectives to describe this fast paced page turner!! There’s secrets, lies, action, adventure, suspense, betrayal, deceit, anger, grief, family loss, heartbreak, and lots of sizzle. Highly recommended read. ~ Sammye, Amazon Review

I’ve been writing this thing about horror games made in RPG Maker for my journalism class, and it’s been coming along pretty nicely. One of the things I’m doing for it is putting a list of recommendations for newcomers to play and I got a bunch of suggestions on what to put. A popular suggestion was The Witch’s House, which I have not played beforehand, so I decided to get on that and make a write-up while I was at it.
The Witch’s House is a game made with RPG Maker VX by Fummy, translated by vgperson. You are Viola, a girl who, according to the letter in her inventory, went to visit her friend. Alas, it appears that she got lost in a forest and a thick bush of roses is blocking her way out. With nowhere else to go, she’s forced to enter the eponymous house. Tailed by a friendly talking cat, Viola wanders around the haunted house filled with absurd traps, under the constant threat of the witch, Ellen.
As you can expect from a horror game, you’ll be dealing with absurd traps and bizarre puzzles. This is actually explained by the house essentially being a living thing working for the witch and trying to screw you over with its own bizarre logic. If that’s the case, why does the house even offer you ways out at all? …That’s actually also explained.
A general thing I liked about the game were the small scares, more specifically, the scares that’s just there to unnerve, but does nothing to you whatsoever. Frequently you’ll spot glimpses of the witch… who does nothing to you. Things in the environment frequently change, from things inexplicably breaking to objects suddenly being replaced to small animations of something moving or reacting to you in some way. But for the most part, they all leave you alone, as if threatening Viola but holding back. Yeah, there were the usual “monster chase scene” bits that you’d expect from a horror RPG Maker game, but these moments are so few in comparison to the numerous smaller frights that when these chases finally happen, it’s actually surprising. The Witch’s House honestly does a good job at building up atmosphere, creating a sense of unease with its smaller scares, always threatening you and until it finally goes through with the threats.
Another thing that I have to comment on is the game’s morbid sense of humor, which is seen frequently in the game’s environment and writing. Like honestly, it’s as much of a dark comedy than it is a horror game. A lot of the deaths in the game are kinda funny to me, and given that the villain is a demented murder child, it’s rather fitting. Go ahead, lend a hand to the chef, he’ll appreciate it. While you’re at it, step on that blood puddle at the beginning of the game, I’m sure it’s just there for effect. There’s definitely an attention to detail in how the creator put in animations for the incredibly obvious deaths that you’d have to be intentionally trying to kill Viola to see them. Go ahead, read the Book of Death – the only way out of reading it is death.
On a lighter note, that cat following you around sure loves to joke around. What a good cat. The cat acts as the game’s save point and shows up frequently enough that you don’t have to make up for a lot of lost time when you die. Apparently, something special happens if you go through the entire game ever talking to that fella, but I’m a compulsive saver, so I didn’t even bother going for it. I did look up what happens though, and it actually is significant for the story, if you’re planning on going through with this.
For the most part, the story’s told in short passages from Ellen’s diary, which is scattered throughout the house because of course it is. Much like the game’s scares, they’re small things that build up, the final diary entry leading to the climactic chase with Ellen herself. If you remember a certain thing from the beginning of the game during the chase, that diary entry takes on a different meaning and the triumphant normal ending becomes something far more miserable. Looking back after finishing the game, there were a lot of things that makes sense in retrospect and I’m sure that replaying the game after getting the true ending would give players a different perspective.
(I’d say more on those subjects, but also, I’m not sure about my spoiler policy. Is it still too early to freely spoil things? I don’t know.)
On the subject of the game’s puzzles, they were generally pretty fair with a lot of variety. Probably the only one I hated was this puzzle involving these skulls, but as usual with puzzles, I’m not sure if it’s really hard or if I’m just really dumb. If you do manage to get stuck though, there’s a walkthrough available at the download link that will help you out.
There was also this companion book made called The Diary of Ellen, which fleshes out the game’s backstory and shows Ellen’s perspective. There was an English translation that was also made by vgperson, but Fummy asked to take it down. The companion book had gotten a manga adaptation and said adaptation got an official translation, so I’m guessing the creator didn’t want to jeopardize that. If you want to check out the manga or look up the book’s synopsis, I warn that they contain spoilers for the game’s true ending, if you’re like me and somehow haven’t played the game until now.
I ended up walking away from the game with a better opinion than I expected and I think it’s a good example of a horror game made in RPG Maker. My playthrough of the game took about an hour, so it’s a game that doesn’t overstay its welcome. A perfect length game, if you ask me. And of course, it’s a free game and with its short length, there isn’t much stopping you from playing this. Except if horror games make you squeamish, I guess.
[…] up for the usual monster chases. If you’re like me and haven’t heard about the game (at least until recently), the story builds up to a nice […]

The primary objective of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change is to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations at a level that will avoid dangerous climate impacts. However, greenhouse gas concentration stabilization is an awkward framework within which to assess dangerous climate change on account of the significant lag between a given concentration level and the eventual equilibrium temperature change. By contrast, recent research has shown that global temperature change can be well described by a given cumulative carbon emissions budget. Here, we propose that cumulative carbon emissions represent an alternative framework that is applicable both as a tool for climate mitigation as well as for the assessment of potential climate impacts. We show first that both atmospheric CO(2) concentration at a given year and the associated temperature change are generally associated with a unique cumulative carbon emissions budget that is largely independent of the emissions scenario. The rate of global temperature change can therefore be related to first order to the rate of increase of cumulative carbon emissions. However, transient warming over the next century will also be strongly affected by emissions of shorter lived forcing agents such as aerosols and methane. Non-CO(2) emissions therefore contribute to uncertainty in the cumulative carbon budget associated with near-term temperature targets, and may suggest the need for a mitigation approach that considers separately short- and long-lived gas emissions. By contrast, long-term temperature change remains primarily associated with total cumulative carbon emissions owing to the much longer atmospheric residence time of CO(2) relative to other major climate forcing agents.

THE author Michael Crichton, whose books have been turned into Hollywood "blockbuster" films, has parted from Alfred A Knopf, his publisher for 32 years, in favour of a £28 million deal for his next two thrillers.
|Michael Crichton: Knopf's most commercially successful author|
Crichton, who wrote Jurassic Park and Rising Sun, has switched to HarperCollins, which has acquired the world English rights to the books. The move comes six months after Tom Clancy, another techno-thriller writer, raised eyebrows in the literary world by switching his £138 million fiction empire to the care of Michael Ovitz, the Hollywood agent.
Crichton, 58, is in the same league as Clancy. He may be even richer, as he receives a tidy income from episodes of ER, the television series that he created.
Films based on his books have grossed more than $1 billion (£700 million), allowing him, like the actor Tom Cruise, to command a percentage of the box office profits rather than a straight fee, in addition to approval of the cast and director. He has directed films such as Westworld, Coma and The Great Train Robbery.
Like Clancy, he creates computer games from his books, and his earnings regularly hit the £46 million-a-year mark. In addition, he writes film scripts with his wife, Anne-Marie Martin. One, Twister, the tornado film, took more than £100 million in its first month.
His move is a blow to Sonny Mehta, 57, the president of Alfred A Knopf, who also edited his work. Mr Mehta, the son of a high-level Indian civil servant, was a high-flyer in London after reading English and History at Cambridge, where the 23-year-old, Chicago-born Crichton was a visiting lecturer in anthropology.
As the head of Paladin Books and then of Pan Books, Mr Mehta created waves by buying The Female Eunuch by Germaine Greer, an old university friend, in addition to selling 80,000 copies of Man's Best Friend, a book about penises.
Until now, he has been the toast of New York. He moved to the city in 1987, turning Knopf into the favourite publisher of Manhattan's chattering classes. His list of authors is the envy of rivals. It includes Cormac McCarthy, John Updike, Susan Minot, Tony Morrison, Anne Rice and Kazuo Ishiguro.
Crichton's association with Knopf began in 1969 with The Andromeda Stain, which he wrote while at Harvard Medical School. It was the first of 12 best-sellers, 10 of which have been made into films. His latest book Timeline spent 13 weeks on the American list of best-sellers, and the paperback version is now also a big hit.
He was Knopf's most commercially successful author, followed by Rice and Richard North Patterson. William Loverd, a Knopf spokesman, said: "It was with great regret that we were unable to come to terms. We are proud of the way we developed Michael Crichton into one of the world's leading brand-name authors."
Crichton's long-time agent, Lynn Nesbit, brokered the deal, which hinged on the fact that Jane Friendman, who originally worked with him on The Andromeda Strain, had left Knopf to become HarperCollins president in 1997. The writer wanted to rekindle his publishing relationship with her. He said: "She is a friend and colleague." Ms Nesbit said the first book would be out in 2002. "We're looking towards the next 30 years."

DesignTrade partners up with EXPO NEWS Fair
As part of an active contribution towards strengthening and developing Denmark and Copenhagen as a prime destination for design, new Copenhagen design fair DesignTrade Copenhagen, has partnered with Denmark’s biggest trade fair for corporate clothing, gifts, merchandise and services, EXPO NEWS Fair, which is held at Lokomotiværkstedet (The Locomotive Repair Hall) on 29-30 August.
Design Trade Copenhagen and EXPO NEWS Fair are both trade fairs that attract professional buyers from home and abroad, and the organisers behind the partnership agreed that it will strengthen the industry and Copenhagen as a location for trade fairs.
Design Trades Product Manager, Rasmus Øland, explains the background for the partnership between the two fairs, which includes joint marketing and shuttle buses between Lokomotivværkstedet and Bella Center.
”We have always been committed to creating an experience platform for the design industry in Copenhagen. With the new partnership, we want to increasingly bring together the many players in the industry and attract even more visitors from Scandinavia, Germany and Poland, which we believe benefits Copenhagen, the visitors and especially the exhibitors at the two fairs.”
Project manager Karsten Lundbek from Profile Group A/S, which is behind EXPO NEWS Fair, also welcomes the cooperation.
“We want to strengthen Copenhagen as a city for trade and experiences and therefore we see a clear advantage in working with Design Trade Copenhagen because it gives exhibitors and visitors the opportunity to find new inspiration and meet new customers across the two fairs. We believe that this service may eventually help to attract more visitors to Copenhagen.”
EXPO NEWS Fair is being held at Lokomotivværkstedet from 29-30 August and Design Trade Copenhagen will be held for the first time from 28-30 August at Bella Center.

Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott aren't afraid to flaunt their love on social media. The couple showed off some PDA in Kylie's recent post, and her fans went wild.
On Sunday, Kylie Jenner took to her Instagram account to share a picture of herself and her boyfriend, rapper Travis Scott, snuggling up together.
In the photo, the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star is seen wearing a tight, gray bodysuit with a large neon pink blazer over top.
Kylie has her long, dark hair slicked back into a sleek bun behind her head and sports a full face of makeup, which includes darkened eyebrows, thick lashes, pink blush on her cheeks, a berry lip, and a bronzed glow.
Jenner dons a pair of large, hoop earrings and carries a small leather black bag to complete her look.
Travis wears a tie-dye short-sleeved t-shirt, some diamond earrings, a large chain around his neck, as well as a lavish watch on his wrist and ring on his finger.
The rapper stands behind Jenner and has one of his arms wrapped around her neck as she holds on to it with her own hand. His other arm is around Kylie's waist with his hand extending inside her jacket.
Travis nuzzles Kylie's face as she looks away from the camera in the photo. In the caption, Jenner reveals that she and Scott are partner's forever.As previously reported by The Inquisitr, Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott already share one child together, daughter Stormi Webster. However, they may soon be expanding their family as rumors of them getting married and having a second child have been running wild.
"Kylie has always expressed the desire to be a young mother and have lots of babies. She's so maternal and private and loves to just be at home nesting. She's very, very hands on and her love for Stormi is like no other. She truly believes she was put on this planet to be a mom," an insider tells Hollywood Life.
"Things with Travis are going really well right now, too, and Kylie would rather have another baby than a wedding right now. She's very comfortable with where things are at, however, she has expressed the itch for being ready for baby number two," the source added.
Fans can see more of Kylie Jenner, Travis Scott, and their little girl Stormi by following the family on social media.

Prebiotic Chemistry: Miller & Urey Experiment
“But if (and Oh! what a big if!) we could conceive in some warm little pond, with all sorts of ammonia and phosphoric salts, light, heat, electricity, etc., present, that a protein compound was chemically formed ready to undergo still more complex changes, at the present day such matter would be instantly devoured or absorbed, which would not have been the case before living creatures were formed.”
-Charles Darwin 1871
The Primordial Soup
A primordial soup sounds like some absurd dish served at an upscale New York restaurant. One that is filled with who knows what, and will end up costing a leg to acquire. While this may be an endeavor a few may wish to act upon; most will forgo it. For primordial soup is not just any old soup, it is the first soup from which life is theorized to have arisen.
Think oceans, amino acids, and the early atmosphere rather than noodles, chicken, and carrots. The concept of a primordial soup is so much more fascinating than any edible soup will ever be. In fact, it is such a fascinating idea that two scientists, and later on others, strived to recreate this soup under an environment much like that seen on the early Earth. The interesting thing is; they succeeded. These scientists were able to recreate an environment that allowed for the formation of amino acids and other organic compounds essential for life.
This “Miller -Urey Experiment,” thus called in honor of the first ever conduction carried out by our two scientists Stanley L. Miller and his graduate adviser Harold C. Urey, was mind blowing to say the least . Here we have two scientists who were able to create an environment where amino acids, the building blocks of life as we know it, prospered with nothing more than some gases, an electric current, and some heat. Well, it is a little more complex than that, but we shall explore that later.
So, what does this mean? What can this experiment possible uncover about the mysteries swirling around the early Earth and the creation of life? The Miller-Urey Experiment opened many new doors for such inquires, as well as criticism, but really, what scientific discovery does not? Amino acids, gases, heat, and a spark; interesting concept, but what does it mean?
Animated Miller-Urey Experiment
Miller & Urey's Experiment
Stanley Miller and Harold Urey, working at the University of Chicago, stumbled on a concept in 1953 that would change the approach of scientific investigation into the origins of life on early Earth. They were both intrigued about the type of environment that would be needed in order for life to begin. So, like any good scientist with the scent of discovery in the air, they formed a hypothesis and tested it.
Miller and Urey placed the gases; methane (CH4), ammonia (NH3), water (H20), and hydrogen (H2) into a closed system and manipulated them in order to see if these gases could form amino acids. In their experiment, they placed water and their gases into their closed system apparatus. The water was boiled till it vaporized. This water vapor then would then move into another flask filled with the ammonia, methane, and hydrogen where a continuous electric current ran through the system. Once thoroughly electrocuted, the gases were condensed and moved through a collecting trap. The water would then move back into the boiling flack to start the process all over again.
See, the purpose of this experiment was to recreate condition of primordial Earth. An atmosphere that Miller and Urey believed to be deprived of oxygen, swarmed with lightning storms, and constantly fluctuating in temperature. They ran this system continuously for a week before analysis. When they observed the inside of their apparatus, they saw, what essentially amounts to, a whole lot of black goo. Through the use of chromatography, Miller “observed that as much as 10-15% of the carbon was now in the form of organic compounds,”a.k.a black goo.
That’s right; Miller and Urey successfully produced amino acids and organic material; the necessary components essential for cellular life. This, as you can come to imagine, caused quiet the commotion.
Black Goo Composition
But, what was this black goo? How did Miller know to use the gases that he did under such conditions? And where did this idea come from?
Well, for nearly a century, evolutionists have been claiming, with much conviction, that life started on Earth in a "primordial soup" consisting of water chuck full of chemicals necessary for the start of life. This warm little pond was believed to have been struck by an electrical discharge, probably from a lightning bolt, which caused the chemicals to make amino acids, and eventually brought forth life on our little blue planet. From this first soup, they argued, all other life evolved.
So Miller got to work on recreating said pond. Miller knew that the outer planets were very high in hydrogen content, along with water, methane, and ammonia. So, he figured that the Earth would have a similar composition after its planetary formation. The only thing that he really needed now was an energy source to drive the reactions. Miller chose to use “an electric spark to simulate the lightning strikes” that were known to bombard early Earth, and the results were extraordinary. The thing was, Miller expected to get a tarry mass composed of thousands of compounds, but got a surprise when he conducted his chromatography analysis. Several of the compounds present in Miller’s tare “appeared as distinct spots when separated on paper by chromatography. These spot appeared purple and blue when they were sprayed with ninhydrin dye and heated, and as one might conclude, these spots turned out to be the fundamental monomers of proteins; amino acids.
So Miller proved that amino acids could be synthesized by conditions present in prebiotic Earth, but the real test would come when the scientific community took a closer look at his methods.
The Critics of this Experiment
Scientists had a big problem when it comes to investigating the origins of life on the primordial Earth. And they are not as accepting of Miller’s experiment do to many problems associated with the atmosphere of Earth. The problem is our life supporting oxygen. See, an atmosphere with oxygen equaled no amino acids and thus so critters. This is because amino acids and sugars will react with oxygen to form good old carbon dioxide (CO2). But, on the other hand, an atmosphere without oxygen equaled no ozone, and yet again, no life, since without an ozone layer (O3), ultraviolet rays would soon break down organic life .
So scientists have to come up with a way to allow for the formation of amino acids in an environment that will all for its formation and protect it from radiation. Some scientists are skeptics of it because they do not believe that many of the condition were accurate with that of early Earth. For one, while it is believed that lightning storms were very common, they did not occur in a continuous supply of energy that Miller used in his experiment to form amino acids and other organic compounds. It is now believed that the early earth's atmosphere did not contain predominantly redundant molecules either.
In the 1980’s, scientists agreed that nitrogen and carbon dioxide would have been present in high qualities because Earth was very hot at those times and composed of nickel and iron. One of the most criticized aspects of the Miller- Urey experiment was the fact that is was conducted in a closed system not exposed to the primordial atmosphere which would most likely have destroyed that which was vital for life. Another argument was the fact that the amino acids that were found on Earth could also be found in outer space.
In 1969, a meteorite recovered in Australia, was shown to be rich in amino acids. About 90 different amino acids were identified and nineteen of the amino acids could also be found on the Earth . So in theory, our amino acids could have stolen a ride to Earth via a meteorite. Or, since amino acids were proven to survive in the unfriendly depths of space, it also raised the question; could the amino acids have formed and survived while the Earth was undergoing its planet developing stage?
What's up with these Amino Acids?
Let us also look at these amino acids that Miller discovered. The thing, is that in nature, we only utilize left amino acids. Amino acids, like most every chemical, are three-dimensional structures. These little monomers are tetrahedral, so one would think that we could, in a sense, rotate a right amino acid into a left simple by giving it a twist, but that is not the case.
Think of them like gloves: a left-handed glove will not fit a right-hand . And, yes, this matters greatly. Miller’s experiment gave us both, in equal amounts, of right and left amino acids. When levo amino acids are really only needed. Our problem comes when we look at functional proteins since they cannot contain more than traces of right handed amino acids, since their forms can have very different, even fatal, effects in some circumstances.
So, over all, while Mill did succeed in presenting the science community with a new way of viewing primordial Earth, he made a few, and had a few, implausible conclusions. We have irrelevant conditions, an atmosphere that does not prove true, small yields of chemicals in wrong proportions, and a serious structural problem.
Was RNA the First Fundamental Molecule for Life?
Thus we go on to what may well be the biggest problem, the pessimists of amino acids. See, proteins cannot make DNA, but can catalyze for chemical reactions that take place. But RNA, sweet old RNA, can both replicate itself and, at times, act as a catalyst.
So a group of scientists have decided to go along and say; what about RNA as being the fundamental first molecule that allowed for the development of life on Earth? They argue that RNA could initiate some of the essential functions required in the cell until modern structures could evolve.A leading scientist in this field of research, Professor Orgel calls it “the prebiotic chemist’s nightmare,” and that it is. RNA may be simpler than DNA, but it is still complex and involves a chemical structure that does not form spontaneously. As Dr. Cairns-Smith puts it, “it [would] require 14 major hurdles with 10 steps in each, giving a probability of 1 in 10109 for their successful formation. The first ribo-organism would need all the cell’s metabolic functions in order to survive and it is not evidence that such a range of functions is possible for RNA.”
So, in the sense of amino acids being our first molecules of life, we should go ahead and give Miller and Urey a high-five. This is not saying that RNA is not a possibility, just that it is not a probability.
There is Still Hope for this
And thus we have covered many of the problems that Miller is facing with his experiment. So he made a few mishaps in judgment. And possibly proposed a few conclusions that will not hold to modern research, but his research has led to so many interesting possibilities. And, hey, who knows, maybe another scientist will come around an conclude that some catastrophic event took place that allowed only levo amino acids to survive and allowed for an environment that they could flourish in.
But, rather than concentrate on what is wrong with his research, let us look at what is right. Miller devised a new way to look at early life. Amino acids are the building blocks of life, and Miller wanted to see if such things could come about with simply using a bit of what was available at the time. While not all of the gases he used were thought to have been on early Earth at the time that amino acids were forming, they did exist in space. And further testing of known compounds on Earth has shown that, when manipulated similarly to what Miller carried out, they too can form amino acids.
And, recently, Dr. Jeffrey L. Bada, ‘from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in San Diego, who had been one of Dr. Miller’s graduate students, discovered cardboard boxes containing hundreds of vials of dried residues collected from the experiments conducted in 1953 and 1954” (Chang). These vials have to potential to shed new light on Miller’s experiments. Miller conducted more than one experiment to form amino acid, but he really only ever paid attention to the first that he became known for.
These vials have been sitting for over 50 years, and the amino acids and compounds inside may have been doing, well anything really. So, as new information on these findings becomes available, we may find the Miller was more right then believed .
The Miller-Urey Experiment
In the End
Scientists are like politicians at times. When one expresses a new idea, there are a whole heard who try to disprove it, some because they actually believe that what the founding researcher idea is incorrect, and others simply because they wish to make a name for themselves in doing so. But let us explore the question proposed here, how did life begin?
This is hardly an easy question to rectify with a few experiments and squabbling scientists. The whole process will involve a tremendous amount of work and collaboration. And even if we do ever find an answer for this, it will still be question that will plague use for quite a while. Finding that which began life, and caused all that we now know, will really just be the tip of the iceberg, per se, in the humongous world of evolution and formation. The question of life is just one of those things that humans never really want to agree on. It is almost like asking use to view the sky and, with utmost certainty, name the number of stars in the sky, but we are not at that stage yet.
While Miller’s experiment does not hold up to what current scientists believe was the true nature of the early Earth, it did plant the seed for a new way to look at how life formed. Millers experiment shows that organic compounds and amino acids have the potential to be made out of material that was present on prebiotic Earth and in outer space. And other scientist have been able to prove that amino acids could be made out of the CO, CO2, and N2 that is now believed to be the major composition of early Earth as long as no oxygen is present . Miller led to the understanding that producing amino acids is much easier than first thought.
While his methods may have not been utilized the right gases and such, without him, scientists may still not be exploring this avenue of thought. The origin of life is baffling, and its discovery shall indeed take a lot of work.

As standard Wood And Home offers 4 or types of beadings. The most popular vertical or horizontal bar is “astrogal” which come in standard 25mm width.
The height of glazing bars depends on the double glaze unit thickness. For instance, when a 20mm double glaze unit is fitted the height of beading is reduced to maximum 15mm, in turn reducing the thickness of glass can help to achieve better mouldings.
Horns can be added to sashes both internally and externally, depends on client requires. We offer 4 standard types which are most common in Victorian windows.
PINE – Is a soft wood and can be coloured using white or yellow, this timber is very light in weight and highly natural, this is a popular timber in Europe. It is not as dense as hardwood, but resists well from weathering (i.e. rain water and UV sun light).
MERANTI – Is a popular hard wood and is used for the external joinery. This timber comes from Southeast Asia, and has good levels of outdoor durability. This timber can be found in low-lying rain forests and in low mountainous regions, and offers some of the best options for hardwood, in terms of the product’s cost effectiveness
OAK – Is typically a hard wood that can be found in most countries of Europe. This timber is often grown using dry and acidic soils, it’s characteristic come from all the natural wood, which gives it a high durability.
The Sill /Sill extensions for sash windows are always manufactured from hardwood due to its ability to resist weathering (i.e. damage due to rain water and UV rays).
Standard sash section
TIPS while taking measurements for box sash window!
It has been recommended for new sash windows to allow for a 84mm frame jab, and for frame jambs to be placed on each side and inserted into the wall and in turn which allows the sash cord mechanism to be covered. Regarding the external view, it has been suggested that we allow a 20-30mm of the visible to be facing, whereas the rest is hidden.
During new openings, when the catnic lintels are installed the facing frame-head can be reduced from 84mm to 40mm (it is the frame’s minimum thickness of sliding sash windows). From an external point of view, the overall framing will look symmetric.

S Marqui Hawkins Profile
Among the prospects he'll check in on while in town is rising senior defensive back Marqui Hawkins.
"Me and coach Cheese have been keeping in contact for the last few weeks. He's just coming to the school, [telling me] to keep my grades up and when I'm taking the ACT," Hawkins said in a recent interview with CUTigers.
The three-star safety is up to 12 offers now. His most recent was from USC.
"I'd never heard from them, so that was great," Hawkins said.
Clemson, Mississippi State, Tennessee, North Carolina, Ole Miss and Florida are among the other schools that have offered. Georgia Tech, Mississippi State and Colorado have already been by the school.
Hawkins currently has no favorites.
"I'm thinking about narrowing it down in the middle of the season or in the middle of the summer," he said.
And what will he be looking for from the potential suitors?
"I'll be looking for the depth chart, what position I'll play, on the depth chart. How the older guys treat the younger guys when they come in."
Clemson has offered Hawkins as a safety.
"I really want to play receiver, but I just really want to get on the field, so I don't care where I play," he said.
As a junior, Hawkins caught 31 passes for 635 yards and five touchdowns. As a sophomore, he had 21 catches for 386 yards and five touchdowns.
Clemson scheduled to visit Carver

|Subsequent Events [Abstract]|
|Subsequent Event||SUBSEQUENT EVENT:
Senior Secured Credit Facility Amendment
On October 10, 2018, Quanta entered into an amendment to the amended and restated credit agreement for its senior secured credit facility, which, among other things, (i) increased the amount of revolving commitments thereunder by $175.0 million, resulting in an aggregate revolving credit facility of up to $1.99 billion, and (ii) provided for a new term loan facility with total term loan commitments of $600.0 million. After giving effect to the amendment, the aggregate amount of the credit facilities provided for under the credit agreement is $2.59 billion. In addition, subject to the conditions specified in the credit agreement, Quanta has the option to increase such amount, in the form of revolving loan or term loan commitments, by up to an additional $400.0 million, from time to time, upon receipt of additional commitments from new or existing lenders. Both the revolving credit facility and the term loan facility mature on October 31, 2022.
The amendment also increased the amount of the revolving credit facility that may be used for swing line loans in Australian dollars from $30.0 million to $50.0 million and increased the threshold amount for cross-defaults to certain debt instruments and for certain other purposes from $100.0 million to $150.0 million.
On October 10, 2018, Quanta borrowed the full amount of the term loan facility and used all of such proceeds to repay outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility. Pursuant to the amendment, amounts borrowed under the term loan facility will bear interest, at Quanta’s option, at a rate equal to either (i) the Eurocurrency Rate plus 1.125% to 1.875%, as determined based on Quanta’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio, or (ii) the Base Rate plus 0.125% to 1.000%, as determined based on Quanta’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio. Quanta is required to make quarterly amortization payments of $7.5 million on the last business day of each March, June, September and December, beginning in December 2018. The aggregate principal amount of all term loans outstanding on the maturity date must also be paid on such date; however, Quanta may voluntarily prepay these term loan borrowings from time to time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty.For additional information on the credit agreement, see Debt Obligations - Senior Secured Credit Facility in Note 7.

VC asked to sack assistant sports director for improper advances at a woman football referee
By Our Reporter
SHILLONG, Nov 20: NEHU Vice Chancellor Prabha Shankar Shukla is under pressure to act against assistant sports director Nantu Das who allegedly molested a woman football referee at the Kiang Nangbah old guest house on Sunday.
The referee was requested by NEHU to accompany the women’s football team of the university which will take part in the inter-university tournament to be held in Odisha next week.
The NEHU unit of the Khasi Students’ Union asked the VC to immediately suspend Das and relieve him from his assignments. The NEHUSU demanded the termination of Das’s service.
“The VC has two days’ time to examine the action to be initiated against Das. We will resort to protest if the VC fails to act,” the KSU’s NEHU unit president, Sandy Sohtun told reporters after meeting Shukla on Monday.
He said Das had gone to pick the victim up from Umshyrpi without any permission. “She was asked to report on a Sunday, which is not a working day,” he added.
The victim was taken to the Kiang Nangbah old guest house where Das allegedly tried to molest her, Sohtun said. “The victim resisted and managed to escape from the clutches of the accused,” he added.
He said the members of the union rushed to the old guest house and found only the victim as Das had escaped by then. “We were told that he asked the police to escort him to the Mawlai police station,” he said.
Sohtun said the members of the victim’s family later took the decision to file an FIR.
“At the police station, we found the assistant sports director in the custody of the police. The victim was then taken for a medical examination by the police according to the procedure,” he said.
Demanding the immediate removal of Das, the NEHUSU said in a statement: “We appeal to the student community to come together in unity and in rage against the disgraceful acts of sexual violence. Let us make it clear that we refuse to normalise rape culture in this campus, that we uncompromisingly fight to uphold gender justice.”
NEHUSU general secretary Rudolf Carey Chyne told reporters that the accused was arrested on Sunday. He said the members of the union met the parents of the victim and lodged an FIR against the accused.
A NEHUSU delegation also met the VC to demand exemplary action against Das.
“The removal of the accused is not only an act of justice for the survivor but also a crucial step in safeguarding the safety, security, and welfare of the students, employees, and the entire community of the university and the broader public,” Chyne said.
Superintendent of Police (City) Vivek Syiem said the accused has been booked under Section 341/354 A (1) (i) /376/511 of the IPC.
He further informed that the accused has been remanded in judicial custody.
Meanwhile, the Meghalaya Football Association (MFA) on Monday demanded immediate removal of the accused for allegedly molesting a woman referee.
Expressing concern over the incident, MFA president, Hamletson Dohling said the university authorities should take stringent action against Das for outraging the modesty of a woman and termed the act highly condemnable.
He further said that the university should initiate action to set an example to ensure that such incidents do not recur.

Shawna Pickett Floor, October 01st , 2017. There are several different aspects of home improvement, and flooring becomes one of the most essential examples. Recently, many people compete to remodel their home with the latest look. They try to find the references from unlimited sources and spend a lot of money to enjoy the great new look for their beloved house or flat. What about you? Do you want to do the same thing? If you are a person with great attention to the floor decoration, the following explanation will bring you to the better understanding about such matter. Further, what kind flooring should you choose? There are many different floor decorations, but the latest trend shows that bamboo flooring is the new preferable choice. It is for those who like the traditional look, the affordable price and also the less maintenance. In my opinion, bamboo flooring is not only affordable and need the less maintenance, but also brings the artistic value. Bamboo gives a sense of traditional and unique. So, considering choosing this item is a worthy investment.
Francisca Sharp Floor, October 02nd , 2017. The various flooring on the market come with various prices as well. As I have mentioned above, the bamboo flooring is the cheapest one. It is very suitable choice for those who have tight budget. It is not only affordable, but will bring the nice traditional look to your home. In this case, it is better to estimate the budget firstly before finally decide to bring the perfect floor for your home. Choosing the modern flooring is commonly used by those who present the simple home decoration as their choice. What about you? What kind of flooring do you like best? The final decision is in your hand. It is you who will determine about the best choice for your home. Anyway, finding the great idea for the perfect home improvement will be a challenging and interesting thing. Our home is a place where we spend our time with our beloved ones. It becomes the reason why we should provide the best thing to make it perfect.
berkah Floor, October 02nd , 2017. You also have ceramic tiles. This kind of tile is the inexpensive way to achieve the look of granite or marble floors. They can give the effect of having water on your floors that’s oh so dramatic. Another kind of tile you can use as flooring is metal tile. These are either industrial gratings or stainless steel. If you want your floor to have the look of brass, bronze or steel, this is the one to go for. You can mix and match this tile with other kinds of tiles to accent the floor and create a point of interest in the room. One of the most traditional flooring ideas to go for is using terracotta tiles. You can get a handcrafted look for your floors with this kind of tile. You can use it in the regular square shape or get ones in octagon shapes, etc. Put a picture on your floors with mosaic tiles. You can make a pattern or lay them out randomly for a unique design. Lastly, you’ve got glass tiles. These can be used as tile flooring ideas to give a quality finished look to any room.
Callie Trevino Floor, October 01st , 2017. Installing Your Ceramic Flooring Tile Yourself. Installing ceramic tiled flooring is a relatively easy job. There are step by step instructional guides available online if you want to take this task upon yourself instead of hiring a handyman. The basics of installing your flooring are quite simple: the first and foremost thing you must do is measure the tiles and your floor accurately using accurate measuring tools. Then you must calculate, using these measurements of widths and lengths, exactly how many tiles you will need. Then you should mark the center of your floor by drawing lines through the mid-points of the width and the length of your floor; the intersection of these lines, of course, is the center of your floor. You must begin tiling from the center and proceed outwards. Use a tile adhesive or a thin set mortar to bond your tile to the sub-floor; you will need to apply pressure to each tile to let the adhesive work. Grout of the same shade as the tiles needs to be put in after the tiles have set. Each of these processes needs twenty-four hours to dry.
Francisca Sharp Floor, October 02nd , 2017. In many cases it can also make or break a restaurant. This is why making sure that you take out time to review sample restaurant floor plans, you are ensuring that you are doing every possible to avoid costly floor layout and design mistakes. It is essential when it comes to making sure you make the most out of your restaurant financing without having to fix mistakes that are costly or end up losing substantial profits when the work flow ends up being awkward. A restaurant can be a wonderful way to make money and enjoy the benefits that bringing good food to people makes however, the restaurant floor plan must be set up to match the necessary flow and style of the food that is being prepared. Without doing this there is no way to ensure the proper flow of traffic and the atmosphere of the restaurant and it can also have a serious financial effect. So make it your business to take out time to review several sample restaurant floor plans before you make any final layout and design decisions.
Shelly Logan Floor, September 30th , 2017. Many people buy books offering a broad selection of plans only to be disappointed with the fact that they cannot easily narrow down the search to only plans that fit their needs. Hopefully you will choose to simplify this process with a system that helps you narrow down just the house floor plans that fit your actual needs. This is most easily performed with online plan sites. However there are pitfalls to this process also. Most people start the process by a best guess as to what size home they should build. They either pick a size range based on a floor plan they found and liked while randomly searching online or they tour a home they like and assume that it is the size that will be right for their needs. There are frustrating problems associated with both of these methods.

Inez Humphrey Floor, September 30th , 2017. Hardwood floors remain popular even now in many houses in the West. You will get plenty of varieties like oak, pinewood, maple wood in the hardwood type each having its own pros and cons. But, it will come for long years without costing you anything over the maintenance cost. Porcelain floors are known for its endurance and rigidity which is available at moderate cost in great designs. Some people believe that, porcelain floors are stronger than hardwood flooring and many contractors recommend for home renovation and improvement plans.
Norma Oneil Floor, October 02nd , 2017. For plywood subfloors, be sure that the wood is at least 1 and 1/8 inches thick and is supported by an equally strong underlayment. Otherwise, your ceramic tiles will dislodge easily, or worse, break and need replacing. Concrete floors are the most ideal subfloor surface to work with. But before you can start installing ceramic tile flooring over it, it must be cleaned thoroughly. For dust and other debris, sweep and then mop your concrete subfloor surface, and allow it to dry completely. Smooth concrete surfaces must be rough sanded just like vinyl floors to allow the tiling mortar some grip.
berkah Floor, October 01st , 2017. You can go with one kind of tile when you want flooring that is durable and beautiful. You can also mix and match different materials too. Together with your imagination and creativity, you can create a flooring design that’s unique to your home and give the rooms of your house a great personality, your personality. To make sure you utilize the wide selection of tile flooring ideas, you have to know about the various kinds of tiles that you can work with to install on your floor. First, you have porcelain tiles. These tiles are made by firing at high temperatures. They are also very dense and moisture resistant. You can purchase porcelain in a variety of shades and colors. Porcelain tiles are the most expensive though but with them you have tile flooring ideas that can mimic stone and other materials.
