Are you considering doing a home renovation?
Before you start renovating your home, choosing the right flooring is essential. This will determine your home’s appearance, so you’ll want to pick one that suits your preferences.
You’ll also have choices about installing tiles, the type of flooring, and how to maintain it.
This guide will help you make critical decisions for your new home’s flooring. Consider these tips for choosing flooring solutions that you’ll love.
1. Consider Your Budget
Research what type of flooring materials would suit your budget best. Also, make sure that it is within your projected timeline for installation. Additionally, consider any extras that may be necessary, such as:
- Sealants and adhesives
- Installation costs
Factor those into your budget when selecting the right flooring solution. Lastly, consider if the quality of the materials is lower-grade as they may require more maintenance or need to be replaced sooner.
2. Determine the Room’s Purpose and Traffic
High-traffic areas, such as hallways, kitchens, and bathrooms, should have flooring solutions that are easy to clean and wear well. Carpet or wood flooring may be more comfortable and stylish for living rooms or bedrooms.
Also, think about your lifestyle and how it may affect your activities. For instance, if you have pets, you may want something with a certain level of scratch resistance.
Finally, a softer and more comfortable option may be more suitable for rooms where you entertain a lot.
3. Assess the Material’s Performance
It is important to assess the performance of the materials you are considering. Laminates and hardwoods do not perform well in high-traffic areas and are more prone to scratches and dents.
But, carpet is a great option for areas that receive a lot of foot traffic as it is lower maintenance and offers traction. Additionally, vinyl or ceramic tiles are great for rooms prone to moisture and easy to clean.
Each type of flooring is suited for a specific kind of application. Hence you should be mindful of your selections when making your decision.
4. Think About the Style of the Flooring
Choose something that matches the look of your furniture, wall colors, and other home accessories. Also, don’t forget to research ratings and reviews to ensure that the one you choose fits your purpose.
Ultimately, trust your gut and go with a style and type of flooring you will feel comfortable in for years to come. According to the epoxy terrazzo flooring specialist, you can design your floors in almost any style you like.
By working in different colors, finishes, and patterns with a little help from the experts, you can achieve the floor of your dreams.
5. Choose the Best Flooring Specialist
It is vital to research the reputation and credentials of any potential contractor. Check reviews from other customers and get an idea of what they offer. It is also wise to get quotes from multiple sources.
This will ensure that you are getting the best value for your money. Lastly, be sure to inquire about warranties and guarantees. This will give you peace of mind if anything goes wrong.
Tips for Choosing the Best Flooring Solutions
Choosing the right flooring solutions is crucial for any home renovation project. Researching, seeking professional advice, and planning for the long term are all essential steps.
Make sure to consider the aesthetics, durability, maintenance, and even resale value of the potential choices. Now that you know the fundamentals of selecting commercial flooring solutions, why not start shopping today?

Are you facing charges in Fulton County?
If you were arrested for DUI, then you are presently facing a series of adverse consequences, consequences that may be reduced or avoided with the assistance of an experienced and aggressive driving under the influence lawyer. Only a DUI attorney can protect your rights.
In a first DUI, it is important to explore all possible defenses in order to avoid a lifetime criminal record. Many people decide to enter a guilty plea on their first DUI, and it is a mistake. Being arrested does not mean you are guilty. Always have a DUI lawyer investigate your case for all possible defenses prior to entering into any plea bargain.
In a second DUI, you may be facing serious consequences such as the loss of your license and jail-time. The situation is not hopeless. When you hire a lawyer, he will explore all possible defenses in an effort to see if he can win your case. At the same time, he will be exploring all possible alternative punishments to jail time. Such alternatives can include home confinement instead of jail and work release. In addition, a DUI lawyer will suggest that you get treatment in order to convince the court that you are a candidate for alternative punishments.
In a third DUI, the stakes are extremely high. You are facing being declared a habitual violator and the loss of your driver's license for up to 5 years. Your attorney may elect to take your case to trial. Most people cannot live without a driver's license for five years. In addition most people cannot accept the amount of jail time you would receive if you are convicted of a third or multiple DUI arrest. If you are facing a third DUI, hire the best possible defense. Hire a DUI attorney as soon as possible.
DUI is no laughing matter, most people who are arrested for DUI are not career criminals, instead they are average citizens, and they are the ones that have the most to lose. How would a driver's license suspension, possible jail time, hefty fines and a permanent criminal record affect your personal life, your reputation and your career?
At The Law Offices of Richard S. Lawson, we take your DUI arrest seriously. Our firm focuses entirely on driving while intoxicated cases, that way we can provide our clients with the highest standard of representation available. Although other defense attorneys may take on DUI cases, many of them focus on criminal defense and have little experience with driving charges.
Our founding attorney Richard S. Lawson is more than qualified to defend clients. As a former DUI prosecutor who has completed nearly 100 jury trials and thousands of motions, he has the tenacity you need to build a strong and educated defense on your behalf.
All too often when people are arrested for driving under the influence, they immediately assume they are guilty and lose all hope of beating their charges. Attorney Lawson has a number of resources at his fingertips including: expert witnesses, medical professionals, investigators and former law enforcement officers.
In fact, he was trained by the same individuals who instruct law enforcement officers on the technology of field sobriety tests. He is a certified (NHTSA) field sobriety testing instructor who has learned through his training how to search for any flaws in field sobriety testing procedures and scoring. Field sobriety tests are not infallible, nor are any other aspect of a DUI arrest.
Defense Against Field Sobriety Testing
Believe it or not, unlike a blood, breath or urine test which is usually obtained at the police station or a hospital, drivers are not required to submit to a field sobriety test and there are no penalties or license suspension for refusal to submit to them.
Police officers can be fairly intimidating, especially at a DUI checkpoint or during a DUI stop. Whenever a law enforcement officer asks you to step out of the vehicle in order to take a field sobriety test, you should politely refuse. These tests are not based on factual evidence and they are not scientifically proven, instead they are based entirely on the law enforcement officer's opinion.
These tests are not designed to help you in any way, instead they are used to give the police officer probable cause to arrest you and create damaging evidence against you. One can only imagine how a dash cam video capturing you stumbling outside of your vehicle could only point a judge or jury in the direction of securing an unfavorable conviction against you.
Keep in mind that you are well within the law and your rights to refuse to a field sobriety test; however, you are required to submit to a chemical test if you are asked to. Chemical refusal will result in an automatic license suspension for one year, whether you were drinking or not. On the other hand, refusal to submit to a field sobriety test will not result in the same consequence.
Aggressive DUI Defense Attorney
Our firm is proud to serve the residents of Fulton County and the surrounding areas. With years of experience as a former prosecutor and as a DUI defense attorney, Mr. Lawson is more than qualified to defend your DUI case. He can assist clients with any part of the DUI process including: ALS hearings, refusals/alleged refusals, marijuana cases, underage DUI, blood & breath tests, roadside checkpoints, suspended licenses, child endangerment, vehicular homicide and many more. We urge you to contact our firm to schedule your initial consultation where we can go over your possible DUI defenses.

Want to know which are the largest countries in the world 2020? Here’s an updated list of the world’s largest countries by their total area.
How to measure the Largest Countries in the world
To measure the landmass and size of the country’s area is by far the most accurate and fair way of measuring the largest countries in the world. You can also rank countries by their population, but then you get a list of the most populated countries in the world.
If you’re familiar with world geography, the number one largest country in the world might not be so surprising, but it’s still interesting to see how it differs when measuring the total area or total population.
If you’re looking at the world map, Indonesia doesn’t seem very big as its made up of several island groups, but if you put them all together, you’ll get a landmass of 1 910 931 km2.
Mexico City is one of the most populated cities in the world, and the country itself is also quite large with more than 3000 km long border to the USA, and a total area of 1 964 375 km2.
13. Saudi Arabia
Mecca is located in Saudi Arabia, which is the holiest place on Earth for Muslims. Many are aware of all the pilgrims coming here every year, but few people around the world probably know that Saudi Arabia is also a massive country.
The total landmass is 2 206 714 km2, which makes Saudi Arabia the largest country in the Middle East.
Denmark is quite a small country by itself, but if you also include Greenland (the biggest island in the world) and the Faroe Islands, which both belong to the Kingdom of Denmark, it will have a total landmass of 2 210 573 km².
However, without Greenland, Denmark’s total area will only be 42 933 km², which is one of many interesting facts about Denmark.
11. Democratic Republic of Congo
The second-largest country in Africa only gets the 11th place on this list with a size of 2 344 858 km2. It was previously known as Zaire and has been hit hard by bloody wars, corruption, and foreign interests in the natural resources.
The Democratic Republic of Congo is also one of the poorest countries in the world, even though it’s also one of the richest countries in the world by natural resources. It is home to rainforests, elephants, chimpanzees, and gorillas.
Algeria is Africa’s largest country by size with an area of 2 381 741 km2. Most of the country’s population lives around the Northern coast and the majority of the land area is covered by the Sahara Desert.
Algeria is also one of the driest countries on Earth, although there are also tropical oases and beach destinations along the coast.
In Central Asia, you’ll find this gigantic country with beautiful nature and nomadic tribes roaming the lands. Kazakhstan has a total area of 2 724 902 km2. Although it has a massive size of land, there are only some 18 million people living in Kazakhstan.
Argentina is another large country known for its nature, where many travelers dream of visiting Patagonia. Those who plan to visit and hike around the country need to plan a long vacation though because Argentina has a total size of 2 796 427 km2, which makes it the second-largest country in South America.
It’s the largest Spanish speaking country in terms of size, although large areas of the country are uninhabited.
India is a huge country with lots of people and an ancient culture dating back thousands of years. India has a size of 3 287 263 km2 and is thereby the 7th largest country in the world.
Several of the largest cities in India is home to millions of people, and they are on a path to become mega-cities. New Delhi is one of the most populated cities in the world already with an ever-increasing number of inhabitants.
Another popular destination among backpackers who wants to work at the same time as traveling around. There is plenty of space in Australia, but most of it is actually desert or uninhabited out in the bush.
Australia has a landmass of 7 692 024 km2 and is sometimes labeled as the world’s largest island with the majority of its population lives along the coasts. It is also home to some of the most dangerous animals in the world.
Famous for being home to the Amazon rainforest and Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro. Brazil also has one of the largest economies in the world, but when it comes to size it’s “only” the fifth largest country in the world with a size of 8 515 767 km2, which makes it the largest country in South America!
You might know that China is the most populated country in the world, but it’s actually not the largest in terms of area, even though the country is massive with a size of approximately 9 600 000 km2.
Several cities in China are mega-cities with over 10 million residents living in each, and even more people living in the metropolitan areas.
“The land of the free” is a big one with a size of 9 833 517 square kilometers. The USA is also one of the most populated countries in the world and has the world’s largest economy depending on how you measure.
New York is the most populated city in the US, even though Sitka in Alaska is the biggest city in the United States in terms of area.
With 9 984 670 km² in landmass, Canada is the second-largest country in the world with more than 100 000 square kilometers more land than the U.S. A big chunk of the land is wild nature, and much of it is uninhabited.
Russia is the largest country in the world by size with twice as much land compared to Canada at 17 098 242 km². Quite interesting though, most of the land is located in Siberia which is largely uninhabited although it is one of the richest places on Earth when it comes to natural resources.
Russia is also one of the largest countries in Europe, and the majority of the Russian population lives in the European part of the country, in cities like Moscow and St. Petersburg.
Now that you know about the largest countries in the world by size, it might also be interesting to know which are the most populous countries in the world because it is quite different from the other part of the list of the world’s largest countries.
Largest Countries in the world by population
These are the five most populated countries in the world.
- China – 1.4 billion people
- India – 1.3 billion people
- The United States of America – 327 million people
- Indonesia – 261 million people
- Pakistan – 207 million people
More about the Largest Countries in the world 2020
All of the largest countries in the world are home to many people, but surprisingly both Russia and Canada are relatively densely populated considering the size of their countries. China and India are also some of the largest countries in the world by size, but they are vastly more densely populated.
It’s also quite fascinating that nearly 3 billion people are living in India and China combined, that’s roughly 40% of the total world population! Russia is the largest country in the world with a size of 17 098 242 km², but there are only 143,8 million people living in the country.
When the United Nations put together their latest report on how many people there are in the world, they also provided their recent prognosis that India will overtake China as the most populated country worldwide by 2027.
The Largest Countries in the world by continent
- Africa: Algeria
- Asia: Russia
- Europe: Denmark
- North America: Canada
- Oceania: Australia
- South America: Brazil
- Antarctica: None

Sometimes you just have to write things because something cute happened. No significance, nothing of eternal importance, but cute.
We were at Sigrid’s house, and I took Claudia into the back yard because I spend half my life now outside, frequently in the rain, waiting for the puppy to piddle.
I was looking at the sky, or a bird, or something and heard a splash. Turning quickly, I see a little red head swimming for safety, and then a thoroughly bedraggled scrawny dog emerged.
She started shaking herself off as I grabbed for the camera.
Another shake, and I saw this
I yelled at Gail to grab a couple of towels, then brought the poor wet dog into the house and proceeded to dry her off.
I guess it’s good to know that the dog can swim.
Dog stories. Now I’m writing dog stories. How could this happen to me?
Is that dog wearing pearls?
Of course! Like mother, like daughter
Good post. Good pics. Glad to see she’s still adorable!
Love the picture with both of them showing their pearls!
What did the dog swim in?
Sent from my iPhone
Sigrid has a small decorative pond in her yard. Not very big, or deep. I don’t know whether Claudia jumped or fell.
She really looks more pathetic in the pictures than she did at the time 🙂

What is personal injury law?
Personal injury law protects victims who been injured, physically or psychologically, as a result of the negligence or wrongdoing of another person, company, or other entity. Thus, personal injury lawyers tend to be especially knowledgeable and have more experience with regard to the area of law known as tort law, which includes civil wrongs and economic or non-economic damages to a person’s property, reputation, or rights.


Muslim women find a new goal with AFL
JUST behind the towering goalposts of the Gallipoli Mosque, in the heart of Sydney’s west, is a sight that would make AFL chief executive Andrew Demetriou fall to his knees and weep with unrestrained joy.
Here in the heartlands of rugby league, tabouleh and fully-sick cars, a green shoot of Australian football has taken root.
The Auburn Tigers football side that trains every Wednesday is not, however, just another team. It is a primarily Muslim team. A primarily Muslim women’s football team.
At the National Press Club this week, Demetriou spoke about the challenges facing his code and asked: “How do we make our game relevant to a 10-year-old Muslim girl?”
The answer is: get her older sisters to sign up for the Auburn Tigers and watch her follow.
Amna Karra-Hassan gives you some idea of how big a cultural gap has been leapt, where 25 per cent of the population is Muslim and 10 per cent Chinese.
Most of the girls in the Tigers are of Lebanese background but there is also a Fijian, Bosnian, Turkish and Afghan member too.
“And an Anglo,” Karra-Hassan says.
The 22-year-old has never watched a game of football on television or live, but she has played in four competition matches in the Sydney women’s league after being encouraged to form the side. She has never heard of Gary Ablett but volunteers a fact that will have Demetriou blubbering all over again. She knows who Israel Folau is.
The AFL is hoping Folau, the rugby league convert who will play with the Greater Western Sydney Giants at the nearby Olympic stadium next year, will be a conduit for a cultural and geographical group that has never engaged with the code.
Karra-Hassan explains that the Muslim girls are observant of their religious customs and so play in headscarves and with covered limbs. They have a strategy ready for the day a scarf is lost in a tackle and plan to surround the victim until it is reinstated. “Our first priority is to make sure the girl is comfortable,” she says.
The Auburn Tigers began last year as a Muslim club and the boys’ side won the fourth division premiership in its first season. The women only began this year, prompted by the urging of the NSW AFL multicultural officers. They will have a female coach and have asked the Tigers’ male side to keep away on their training nights and game days.
On the cultural barriers to forming the team, Karra-Hassan is frank.
“Girls don’t play sport is the big one,” she says. “My dad has that attitude and it took a while for our parents to become comfortable with it. Luckily, Dad doesn’t even know what AFL footy is, but if he ever saw me get tackled I would be in so much trouble.”
Karra-Hassan says that the other women’s sides have been helpful.
Asked if the game ever gets rough, she shrieks: “Of course it does. We are from Auburn!”

Tiago crosses 400,000 mark
According to the company, the Tiago is the first car from Tata Motors to achieve this milestone in a short timeline
Tata Motors has rolled out its 4,00,000 Tiago from its Sanand facility in Gujarat.
The company’s Vice President, Sales, Marketing and Customer Care, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Rajan Amba said, “The Tiago has been a key product in our Turnaround 2.0 strategy and since its launch has been successful in grabbing a sizeable marketshare in the most crowded segment in the auto industry. The Tiago has become the preferred choice for youngsters who are looking for a stylish, feature-loaded, and safe car, with more than 60 percent of sales from first-time buyers.”
The company launches a CNG version of the car in January and as Amba said,” The recent interventions of Tiago NRG and Tiago CNG have gained quite the popularity among prospective buyers.”
Tata Motors said it has continuously updated the Tiago with various technological innovations over the years. Its sporty design, superior drivability, and immaculate safety features have redefined the hatch segment since its introduction in 2016, it said. In a press note, Tata said the Tiago has a market share of 19 percent in its segment.

Limited edition jewellery
A partnership between Craftspace and the Herbert Art Gallery & Museum
Necklace, small brooch and large brooch – pink collection (Photo: Craftspace)
To coincide with the Herbert Art Gallery & Museum’s contemporary art exhibition Caught in the Crossfire: Artistic Responses to Conflict, Peace and Reconciliation, which was on show from 25 January to 7 July 2013, Shelanu created an exclusive range of 40 limited edition pieces inspired by Coventry as a city of peace and reconciliation.
After visiting the Herbert and Coventry, the members of Shelanu were struck by the ethos of the city to overcome war and conflict through building understanding and tolerance, encouraging people and communities to work together. As a group of refugee and migrant women, these ideals echoed the group’s own ambitions and experiences:
“My favourite piece is the text in the Peace and Reconciliation gallery about a way to avoid future wars and live peacefully alongside former enemies because I have the same hope for Israel” – Kinneret, Shelanu member
The group were moved by the ongoing work of Coventry Cathedral and its global role within the International Centre for Reconciliation and the Community of Cross, and the designs in wood take inspiration from the Cathedral’s windows, referencing a bud to symbolise new life and hope.
The circular nature of some of the designs was an important inclusion to many of the women signifying the importance of remembering conflict to hopefully learn from the past.
The circle also symbolises global links, including Coventry’s bond with 26 twin cities and the German Circle, a group created in Coventry following the Blitz to learn about the German culture together.
The colours chosen for the pieces are reminiscent of John Piper’s ‘Interior of Coventry Cathedral’. Painted by the official war artist, the work depicts the Cathedral ruins in stunning technicolour the morning after it was destroyed in an air raid on November 14th, 1940.
The pieces have been inspired by Coventry, designed by the collective, and laser cut and hand finished in Birmingham. The development of this range was supported by Craftspace intern Saskia Van der Gucht.

Introduction: Timer/Buzzer for Basys 3 in VHDL
If you’ve ever wanted to make your very own timer, you’re in luck. In this instructable, you will be learning how to create a timer with an external buzzer. These are the things you will need:
1. A Basys 3 Board. You can borrow one from your university or buy one from here. If you’re a student you can receive a discount on the board.
2. USB to Micro USB cable. (Make sure your cable isn’t just a charging cable and that it can transmit data.)
3. An external speaker or buzzer such as the “adafruit piezo speaker”.
4. Small copper wires (insulation stripped at ends) to connect the speaker to the Basys 3.
5. Vivado 2014.2 or newer. Vivado can be installed for free online. Once you have obtained all the necessary hardware and software, you can proceed to the next step.
Add a Teacher Note to share how you incorporated it into your lesson.
Step 1: How It Works
If you want to know a little bit about how this code works, go ahead and read this simple overview section. If you would rather simply install the code, you can skip this step. (Code is in the next step)
Initially, we were going to going to create a timer/stopwatch that would record laps. We had written some of the code but due to time constraints we decided on creating a timer.
In figure 1, we have a top level block diagram showing all the inputs and outputs.
Inputs: There are 9 switches used on the board. The leftmost switch is to pause/start the timer. The rightmost eight switches are used to set the time in binary. Another input is the clock on the basys 3 board.
Outputs: “Segments” refers to the 7-segment display on the basys 3 board. There are 8 bits because the display also includes a small dot to the right of every number. Anodes refers to the anodes corresponding to each of the four full “digits” on the 7-segment display. These turn each individual 7-segment display on or off.
In this code there is one top module and multiple submodules. While we wrote many of the submodules and the main module, we decided to use some external code. For the siren, the code obtained was written in Verilog. The rest of the code is in VHDL Here is what these modules are and what they do.
Main Module: This brings together the following modules.
my_clk_div: These modules divide the clock frequency to slow it down. All modules with "clk_div" are based on this code by Bryan Mealy.
timer: This pauses the time when a switch is flipped up.
sseg_dec: This sets the seven segment display depending on how the switches are configured. Code available here by Bryan Mealy.
mux: The multiplexer used in several of the modules.
siren: Code for outputting a siren sound from fpga4fun.
bin2bcdconv: Converts binary to decimal, since the switches will input in binary. Code available here by Bryan Mealy.
Step 2: Putting Hardware and Software Parts Together
This step requires wiring the speaker to the specified ground port and Pmod port in your custom constraints file. The constraints file for this project uses J1. (Place caution, because not all speakers will work well with the Basys 3 board. Make certain the black wire goes to ground.) Therefor, if you use our code place the positive wire in the J1 slot and the negative to the ground.
Have the Basys 3 board plugged into a computer with the USB to Micro USB cable. Flip the power switch for the Basys 3 board and have it connect to Vivado. You will learn how to program the device in the next step.
Step 3: Programming Your Basys 3 Board
Before using Vivado, it is important to understand where all VHDL/Verilog files are to be stored and how they will be accessed. The link below provides a thorough tutorial and reference for using Vivado effectively for this project and future projects.
You can download the attached ".zip" file and unzip it. You should now be able to open Vivado then select "File => Open Project" and select the files. If you have issues opening the file feel free to message me through instructables.
If the bitstream is not already written, click “Generate Bitstream” under left menu to have Vivado undergo synthesis, implementation, and bitstream writing. Each of these processes has a function, but for our purposes using “Generate Bitstream” is sufficient.
Step 4: How to Use It
To operate the timer, we use SW15 and the eight rightmost switches (SW7, SW6, SW5, SW4, SW3, … SW0).
The rightmost switches act as the 8 bit binary input, you flip the switches up to make them a "1". The timer will count down from the user input as seconds in decimal. The maximum value for this project will be 256. Therefore, any value between 0 and 255 seconds can be input by the user for this timer. SW15 acts as the resume/pause switch for the timer. When it is flipped on, the timer will proceed to count down as shown on its seven segment display. When it is off, the timer will ‘hold’ the last value displayed. When the timer goes off, the buzzer will sound. The simultaneous ‘buzz’ and ‘siren’ emulates a bird call.
The video demonstrates this.
(This project was created for Cal Poly's CPE 133 class)

We used our data to find out more about which dating apps people use most, how much they engage with these apps, and the demographics of different app users. This analysis does not account for people using services like OKCupid, which offers both an app and a website, on their desktop.
According to the data, Tinder is the most used app in terms of total users, but Bumble has the highest percentage of users between and years-old. Christian Mingle, Coffee Meets Bagel and eHarmony are the only apps that have a majority of female users — and two of these apps have the highest user turnover week over week.
Grindr and Happn have some of the the most engaged users, but for very different reasons. We began our analysis by looking at dating app market share in terms of American iOS and Android users of twenty of the most popular dating apps to see which has the most users: Tinder sits comfortably on the top of the list with a quarter more users than the closest competitor, PlentyOfFish POF , and two and a half times the market share of OKCupid and eHarmony, which also rank highly. So while Tinder may not dominate the market outright, its holding company definitely does.

Newsom passes classmate, Polly Klaas killer on tour
Published 4:00 am, Saturday, June 20, 2009
Many U.S. politicians have gone to prison over the years, and Mayor Gavin Newsomjoined the trend Friday - although he left after a few hours. The gubernatorial candidate toured San Quentin and recorded his radio show inside with special guest Matthew Cate, Secretary of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
The media wasn't allowed inside the prison, but we heard about the highlights. The mayor toured Death Row where he passed by the cell of Richard Allen Davis, the killer of Polly Klaas. ("No words were exchanged," reported Nathan Ballard, the mayor's press secretary.)

Newsom also saw 40-year-old Ernest Morgan, an elementary school comrade of the mayor's from Notre Dame des Victoires, who's serving 15 years to life. (And you thought regular school reunions were awkward!)
The mayor also toured the furniture factory and other job sites for prisoners, was interviewed by the inmates who produce the San Quentin News, and went to the yard where other inmates were playing basketball and baseball. "I've seen you on TV!" several shouted. Others told him their concerns about the "three strikes" law.
We did get to sit in on a pre-tour chat between Newsom, Cate and Jackie Clark, CEO of health care in the prisons. San Quentin has 5,255 inmates today, despite it being designed for roughly half that. Seventy percent of them had mental health or medical problems when they arrived.
"The prison system has become our state hospitals," Clark said. "The majority coming here are self-medicating from the streets."
Newsom mostly listened and, probably smartly, didn't mention he's trying to contract out the city's jail health services in his budget for next year.

Take a hike: Feel like getting outside this weekend or next week but don't know where to go? Head down to the Presidio, which is offering guided tours of some of the park's new trails.
Today, the national park will offer two choices: a 3-mile moderate to strenuous hike from the Main Post to the beach and back, beginning at 9 a.m. (Meet at the Presidio Officers' Club). Not up that early? Head down at 1 p.m. for another 3-mile walk on the park's south side (this one rated moderately difficult), beginning at the 24th Avenue gate.
If you can't make the weekend walks, try Wednesday's evening saunter, which begins at 5:30 p.m. at the Lombard Street turnout. The 2-mile, one-way hike will be easy and the park will provide a shuttle to get folks back to their cars.

Zayo to acquire Geo Networks
Zayo has further solidified its presence in the UK after striking a deal to acquire London dark fibre provider Geo Networks.
The deal adds over 2,100 route miles to Zayo’s European network, and adds connectivity to 587 on-net buildings.
Zayo’s acquisition of Geo is predominately intended to increase the company’s presence in the UK, adding 1,800 national fibre miles and connections to 130 data centres, telehouses and internet exchanges.
It also provides direct access to major cities including Manchester, Birmingham and other commercial regions.
Geo’s fibre is also intended to enable Zayo to establish a presence in Ireland through its diverse optical fibre subsea system.
“Geo’s extensive fibre and conduit assets complement our existing London footprint and bring an increased breadth to our UK network,” said Dan Caruso, CEO at Zayo. “Additionally, diverse connectivity to Dublin is critical as it continues to develop as an international data centre hub.”
Geo was founded in 2002 and provides connectivity to a range of media companies, service providers, financial services, data centres and gaming organisations.
“Zayo is a bandwidth Infrastructure leader with a growing international presence,” said Chris Smedley CEO at Geo Networks. “Our customers will not only benefit from the expanded reach of the combined network, but also the opportunity to access Zayo’s full suite of services.”
The deal will close immediately and will be funded by a combination of cash and through Zayo’s credit facility.
Other financial details were not disclosed.

Stem cells can self-renew and produce daughter cells destined for differentiation. The precise control of the balance between these two outcomes is essential to ensure tissue homeostasis and to prevent uncontrolled proliferation resulting in tumor formation. As self-renewal and differentiation are likely to be controlled by different gene expression programs, unraveling the underlying gene regulatory networks is crucial for understanding the molecular logic of this system. In this study, we have characterized by next generation RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) the transcriptome of germline stem cell (GSC)-like cells isolated from bag of marbles (bam) mutant Drosophila ovaries and compared it to the transcriptome of germ line cells isolated from wild-type ovaries. We have complemented this dataset by utilizing an RNA-immunoprecipitation strategy to identify transcripts bound to the master differentiation factor Bam. Protein complex enrichment analysis on these combined datasets allows us to delineate known and novel networks essential for GSC maintenance and differentiation. Further comparative transcriptomics illustrates similarities between GSCs and primordial germ cells and provides a molecular footprint of the stem cell state. Our study represents a useful resource for functional studies on stem cell maintenance and differentiation.

Works on part of a major Nottinghamshire road scheme – part-funded by the D2N2 Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) – have now finished and been officially reopened to the public.
Bowbridge Lane – just south of Newark, Nottinghamshire – has recently undergone works which have included the installation of a new roundabout, street lights, a pedestrian crossing, a footpath and cycleway and a new junction with Hawton Lane. It is now open to the public and will link both parts of the wider Newark Southern Link Road (SLR) programme together when they are fully constructed.
The Newark Southern Link road will be a new four mile long road, linking the A46 (near Farndon) with the A1 (near Fernwood), with roundabout junctions at both ends. It is designed to ease traffic congestion and improve journey times along the Newark bypass, by providing an alternative A46 to A1 route and a new River Devon crossing point. It is being funded by the D2N2 LEP, Urban&Civic PLC, Newark and Sherwood District Council and the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) – a public body sponsored by the Department for Communities and Local Government.
D2N2 is the Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) for Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire and works to grow its areas economy, with the aim of creating 55,000 new jobs in ten years (2013-2023). As part of its mission to grow the D2N2 economy, it has an allocation of Local Growth Funding (LGF) from Government, which can be used for projects in its area which will create jobs and attract investment.
The Newark Southern Link Road is one such project and in November of 2015, the D2N2’s Infrastructure and Investment Board (IIB) agreed £7million for the scheme, confirming this amount earlier this week (September 7). When complete, the Newark Southern Link Road will open up around 278 hectares of land, adjacent to the southern edge of Newark’s built up area, for housing and employment use. This area has planning permission for up to 3,150 houses (including affordable housing), two retail and commercial centres, a 60-bed care home, two primary schools, community buildings, a medical centre, 50 hectares of mixed use commercial development and landscaped green community spaces.
Phase One of the Newark Southern Link road is due for completion in around two months time and will see the eastbound spur of the roundabout opened, providing a connection to Staple Lane and improving access to the A1. Phase two, which will run west and connect to the A46, is currently being designed and is set to begin next year, with the entire road due to be completed before March 2020.
David Ralph, Chief Executive of the D2N2 LEP, said:
“Good transport connections are not only vital for business, they improve access to potential development land, which in turn makes those spaces viable for businesses and housing developers looking for opportunities.
“D2N2’s Local Growth Fund allocation of £7million for the Newark Southern Link Road project, along with contributions from Urban&Civic and other partners, provides an unprecedented opportunity for the area to fund a strategic approach to building the necessary infrastructure to promote economic growth and create new jobs, which will benefit all our communities.”
Richard Coppell, Project Director for Urban&Civic added;
“We’re pleased to be reopening Bowbridge Lane and enabling people to get back to using this stretch of road and we thank them for their patience whilst this work has been underway.
“The transformation of the road will become apparent as people reroute back along Bowbridge Lane and they will see the scale and significance of the work that has been undertaken over the past year.
“They will also be able to see progress on the SLR running east from the new roundabout towards Staple Lane as well as the new Sustrans bridge and on-going landscaping and planting.”
During the Autumn, as well as opening the first phase of the SLR, Urban&Civic will also be announcing the first housebuilder to start on the urban extension with homes expected to begin in early 2017.

Many people in the US are concerned about the great increase in economic inequality. They point out, for example, that 95% of all income gains since 2008 have gone to the 1%. Are they motivated by envy?
Arthur Brooks thinks so. His latest op-ed in the Times is “The Downside of Inciting Envy.”
Claiming to know what a person is feeling when the person himself denies that feeling is always a tricky business. When you’re attributing emotions to others, you ought to have pretty solid evidence
Undoubtedly, inequality has gotten much more attention lately. But is that attention borne on a rising tide of envy in the US? Here’s Brooks’s evidence:
- the percentage of Americans who feel strongly that “government ought to reduce the income differences between the rich and the poor” is at its highest since the 1970s. (GSS data)
- 43 percent of Americans told the Pew Research Center that government should do “a lot” to “reduce the gap between the rich and everyone else.” (Pew data)
- the percentage of Americans who feel that “most people who want to get ahead” can do so through hard work has dropped by 14 points since about 2000. (Pew)
- In 2007, Gallup found that 70 percent were satisfied with their opportunities to get ahead by working hard; only 29 percent were dissatisfied. Today, that gap has shrunk to 54 percent satisfied, and 45 percent dissatisfied.
It’s understandable that in the Great Recession years, economic hardship would inspire more people to look to government to assuage inequality. But before then, the average redistributionst sentiment in Republican years (Reagan-Bush41, Bush43) is higher than in Democratic years (Clinton). This might be relevant for Brooks’s assertion
we must recognize that fomenting bitterness over income differences may be powerful politics, but it injures our nation.Do Republicans foment bitterness for their own political ends? Do Democratic presidents reduce envy? More to the point, do any of Brooks’s indicators really measure envy?
Two of the items are not about envy, they’re about policy. Two others are about economic reality. (Technically, one is about satisfaction with economic reality.) That too is not envy.
Suppose Brooks had sampled attitudes about poverty and low income.
- Should the government reduce spending on food stamps, unemployment insurance, and welfare?
- Do safety-net programs encourage people to avoid work and become dependent on government?
Dissatisfaction and even anger are not envy. Teabaggers and others on the far right are very dissatisfied, and they vent a ton of anger at Obama. Does that mean they are envious of Obama’s political power? No, they just think that they and the country would be better off if one of their own were president. Are the Occupy people envious of the wealth of the Wall Street oligarchs? I doubt that any of the Occupiers in Zucotti Park wanted a bank account with gazillions of dollars. They just wanted what they see as a fairer tax structure and more government action to create jobs. Nevertheless, Brooks and many others automatically assume that those who are concerned about increasing inequality are motivated by personal envy.
Meanwhile, inside the Wall Street buildings, those who occupy the trading desks and offices have been known to complain (here, for example) about their mere $3 million bonus because someone else got $5 million. Now that’s envy. And greed.
(An Esquire article based on their own highly unscientific sampling of Wall Street workers had this graphic on satisfaction with the year-end bonus.)

Spent part of the morning raking leaves - and judging by the state of the trees, that will have to be repeated a few times more. Last night was very windy and wet, but the day dawned bright, cloudless and innocent. I'll post a picture of the QM2 later today.

We Provide The World’s Most Advanced Nutraceuticals
Everything you eat and drink, including nutritional supplements, must be made isotonic before passing into your small intestine where it can be absorbed.
“Isotonic” means having the same fluid pressure as your other bodily fluids like blood and tears. When you eat food, drink a beverage, or take a pill or capsule, your stomach must first secrete diluting juices, enzymes, hydrochloric acid, and at least one vitamin-binding protein to continue the process of digestion. Muscular contractions of your stomach then mix the contents until a reasonably uniform solution is achieved. This process can take anywhere from 40 minutes to four hours.
In the time that it takes for most pills and capsules to disintegrate, and their contents to dissolve and transform to the proper isotonic state, much of their effectiveness is lost. During digestion, the important micronutrients in pills and capsules can get trapped by fats, fibers, and tannins or inactivated by the highly acidic pH level of your stomach.
By using our products, systems, mentoring, etc we can show both health professionals and health minded individuals how to help others while creating a very impressive income. This income can be added on top of what they are currently earning.

You know Razer, right? The gaming hardware manufacturer who make high-end things? With a glowing green motif? And a logo that looks like the flag of the Isle of Man, but made out of snakes? They’ve opened a digital storefront for purchasing games.
Imaginatively titled the Razer Game Store, it’s a digital store, owned by Razer, where you can buy games. They’re not planning on totally cutting Steam out, however; keys purchased via the store will be redeemable via Steam, or Ubisoft’s Uplay platform, depending on the publisher of the game itself.
So if they’re not planning on taking on Steam directly – and many have tried, and failed, so who can blame them – what is the incentive for people to use the new Razer Game Store? It’s their reward programme.
If you purchase games from the new store, you’ll receive zSilver. You can then redeem accumulated zSilver for things from the store, and not just keys for games; you can spend them on Razer hardware and peripherals, too.
If you purchase games with something called zGold – which is a sort of pre-paid, top-up credit system – you’ll receive more zSilver reward points than if you made the purchase with your own zCash, zPaypal, or zCredit Card.
The Razer Game Store also promises to make the following commitments to its ueers:
- Selling only officially authorised keys – Razer works with many publishing and developer partners to make sure that all games sold on the Razer Game Store are fully licensed.
- Providing Razer rewards for every purchase – Razer commits to rewarding gamers each time they check out with unique offers like zSilver bonuses, vouchers and hardware discounts.
- Razer Exclusive Deals – Deals marked as Razer Exclusive feature great promotions and rewards exclusive to Razer.
The Razer Game Store is available now in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, and France. These countries will feature localised storefronts and currency; if you’re located somewhere else in the world, you’ll make use of the US storefront, and will be at the whims of current exchange rates.

Barack Obama has become the first serving US president to visit Hiroshima since the World War Two nuclear attack.
Mr Obama said the memory of 6 August 1945 must never fade, but did not apologise for the US attack – the world’s first nuclear bombing.
Mr Obama spoke to two survivors and in an address called on nations to pursue a world without nuclear weapons.
At least 140,000 people died in Hiroshima and another 74,000 three days later in a second bombing in Nagasaki.
‘Best of friends’
Mr Obama first visited the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum before walking to the Peace Memorial Park, accompanied by Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.
Both men stood in front of the eternal flame. Mr Obama laid a wreath first, followed by Mr Abe.
“Death fell from the sky and the world was changed,” Mr Obama said in his address, noting that the bombing had shown that “mankind possessed the means to destroy itself”.
Mr Obama said the memory of Hiroshima must never fade: “It allows us to fight complacencies, fuels our moral imagination and allows us to change.”
Of nuclear weapons, he said: “We must have the courage to escape the logic of fear and pursue a world without them.”
Mr Obama then spoke to two survivors, hugging 79-year-old Shigeaki Mori.
“The president gestured as if he was going to give me a hug, so we hugged,” Mr Mori said.

The Cover of Life – POSTPONED TO AUG 2021
August 13, 2020 @ 8:00 PM - 10:30 PM| $20 – $25
Tood, Weetsie, and Sybill are brides in rural Louisiana in 1943. Each married a Cliffert brother. The men are off to war and a local news story about these young wives keeping the home fires burning intrigues Henry Luce. Deciding they belong on the cover of Life Magazine he assigns Kate Miller to the story. Though she views doing a “women’s piece” as a career set-back, she accepts because it’s her first cover story. Kate’s haughty urban attitude gives way to sympathy as she begins to understand them while coming face-to-face with her personal conflicts. Filled with charm and fun, The Cover of Life is a deeply affecting story about the struggle for self worth.


An earthquake measuring 5.9 on the Richter scale shook up residents at the entrance to the Suez Canal early Monday morning, 48 hours before two Iranian ships, a frigate and a supply vessel, are expected to enter the canal.
The National Institute for Astronomical and Geophysical Research reported that tremors from the 3 a.m. quake lasted for 27 minutes, but caused no damage.
The ships had originally been expected to enter the Suez today (Monday), but Egyptian officials announced the delay this morning, without explanation.
Iran inexplicably announced Sunday morning that two of its warships had crossed the Suez, a report that was thoroughly denied by Egyptian authorities. Iranian media did not mention the ships on Monday, and the false report may have been for local consumption.

British rapper Ms Banks has just dropped the music video for her latest single “You Don’t Know”, produced by Rymez.
Fresh off several MOBO nominations for ‘Best Female Act’ & ‘Best Hip Hop Act’, as well as a powerful performance at this year’s MOBO Awards, Ms Banks further cements herself as one of the UK’s leading hip-hop acts with this unapologetic and hard-hitting track.
Directed by Terry Paul, the stunning visual sees Ms Banks serve nothing but real boss energy. Over a harrowing production, Ms Banks showcases her signature flow and unmatched lyricism whilst addressing the haters and running through her impressive resume to date.
With combined global streams of over 20 million, a string of sold-out UK shows under her belt and co-signs from Nicki Minaj & Cardi B, having recently supported both on the UK leg of their world tours, Ms Banks is a musical force to be reckoned with.
With her self-assured demeanour and confidence, she’s a rapper that champions and supports all women making their mark on the UK hip-hop scene. She shares: “the industry thinks we should all fight for our space, but surely because there’s only a small percentage of [women in rap], we should work together even more!”
You can watch the music video for “You Don’t Know” right here:
