On Sept. 14, California voters will decide:
(1) Whether to oust Gov. Gavin Newsom from office and, if so;
(2) Who among the candidates is best suited to take over.
The L.A. Times Editorial board has some concerns about California’s recall law: latimes.com/opinion/story/…
“Part 1 will be decided by a majority of votes, just like any other ballot measure. But when it comes to Part 2, the math changes. The winner doesn’t need more than 50% to win, just a plurality of the votes.”

While most think of leg or core strength being the most important component in sport climbing, it's actually your hands and more specifically, your fingers. Image

The Camp fire most notoriously tore through the town of Paradise, but half the people who lost their homes were deeper in the woods, in poorer, more isolated places.

Many had no fire insurance. Some had no electricity. latimes.com/california/sto…
Roughly 50,000 people were displaced by the Camp fire in 2018, and many are still living in limbo, off the grid and out of compliance, as the nearby Dixie fire stirs up smoke and the past all over again. latimes.com/california/sto…
The disasters effectively flushed backwoods people into a modern world of strict building codes and high costs they can’t afford.

“We’re hillbillies up here,” said Mike Nimz, who has lived “on the mountain” for most of his life. Image
